if your f/os are the teasing type (like theyโ€™ll play pranks on you or playfully annoy you), theyโ€™ll listen when you tell them to stop. if you get properly bothered or overwhelmed by their antics, they want you to tell them and they will listen.
Depending on your dynamic, this could mean a safeword that stops all kind of teasing or simply the first time you tell them to stop in a serious tone. They love you, they wouldnโ€™t want to bother you if youโ€™re no longer having fun with it.

The Theme ๐ŸŽ
The 49th Wedding Anniversary comes soon before the huge milestone of the 50 years together, and it's usually represented by various symbols that I added to the prompts: Zircon, Orchids, the color Purple, and luxurious gifts. The main theme of this year's event is GIFTS, the act of giving the partner something material or abstract as an act of selflessness, that can have various meanings and various reactions.
Like all the prompts, itโ€™s up to you to follow the theme or not, consider it just as a general theme that you could build your entries around. I chose some prompts that might fit this theme, that are about gifts as physical objects or as ideas for situations or alternative worldbuildings.
How? ๐Ÿ–ผ
You're encouraged to join with your preferred creative media or challenge yourself with something new! Fanfictions, drawings, comics, poetry, collages and photo edits, moodboards, anything you like! More in the RULES below.
Like all Ship Weeks, this is a fandom event to share love and creativity related to a particular couple, so be sure to engage with the entries and support all the artists and writers that chose to join! Reblog, leave likes/kudos and comment on the artworks to keep the fandom alive! ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’•

HOW to post? ๐Ÿค”
You can post your entries here on Tumblr, on AO3 and on Instagram, using the hashtag #JohnicaWeek2024 and tagging me.
If you prefer, you can post anonymously on AO3, HERE is an easy guide on how to do it!
If youโ€™re on Tumblr and want to post a fic anonymously please send me a DM and Iโ€™ll post it on @johnica-weeks on your behalf, crediting it as Anonymous author! I will also post fics from Anon authors posted on AO3 here on tumblr on Anon's behalf.
๐Ÿ”ฅ TAG your work APPROPRIATELY! This includes all potential triggers and smut. On Tumblr you can include the appropriate warnings at the top of the fic followed by a "keep readingโ€ cut (you can add it in desktop version AND on mobile by writing :readmore: in a new line!) Also be sure to tag the rating of your fic, the genre and the themes of your story, enough to help the readers!
โœจ If youโ€™re still unsure, HEREโ€™s a useful guide on how to tag your works!
Tumblr media
As a reader... ๐Ÿ“–
If youโ€™re a fan of John, of Johnica or simply like to read fanfictions, positive interactions are always much welcomed! Support the authors by leaving likes, a comment (even a little one!) and sharing their work. On AO3 you donโ€™t need an account to leave Kudos and Comments! (Unless the author has willingly prevented guests to comment). To leave a comment on AO3 you simply have to choose a temporary mail and set your email to get a notification for an eventual reply.
If a work is not tagged appropriately, you can reach out to me via DM and Iโ€™ll warn the author. If anything makes you uncomfortable, simply close the work! Do not engage by leaving nasty comments or messaging the author!
๐Ÿ”ฅ IMPORTANT!!! ๐Ÿ”ฅ
During the event, if any of you/your entries gets hateful comments or messages towards you, your entries, the Johnica ship, the event or other creators, please DELETE the hateful comment/message right away with no interactions and let me know! This is no place for haters, just for creativity and love. If you see a hateful comment on other works do not engage, instead leave a positive comment to the same work and support the author! ๐Ÿ’œ
Realistic or not, remember that fanfictions are, by definition, FICTIONAL and not meant to be a documentary! There are lots of things we donโ€™t know about John and Veronicaโ€™s private lives and donโ€™t want to go in too deeply, gossip or speculate about them, so feel free to fly with your fantasy and let your creativity flow! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’– Most of allโ€ฆ have fun, respect each other and support each otherโ€™s works!

KnB fics by evelhak/glasssneaker on AO3
Hello! Welcome to my so called โ€œTOTverseโ€.
My fics are dialogue heavy and mostly in first person pov. I promise you'll get used to it. They are also all interconnected, so it makes the most sense to read them chronologically (instructions appear naturally if you start from TOT), but I'm aware some people don't care, so... as long as you are aware of what you're doing and why things wonโ€™t make sense.
Most of my stories focus on relationships and personal development and there are a LOT of references to literature and particularly fairytales, also many quirky dreams.

A Shame
ShIp: Heizou x April | Word Count: 969 | Warnings/Tags: Food mention (like heavy), cheesy flirting hehe
A/N: so, here's the fic~ it's pretty much pure fluff (which is a good thing to post for a birthday, right?) anyways, I hope you all enjoy it! <3
Tumblr media
When Heizou finds himself heading to Treats of Teyvat for the fifth consecutive day, he thinks it's finally time to ask out the cute barista/owner. The pastries and drinks she makes may be good but they're not what keep him coming back day after day. If he were coming simply for those, he thinks he'd likely stop in once or twice a week instead of this.
But Aprilโ€ฆ Seeing her smile and hearing her laugh is what has him returning every day. He finds himself wanting to come up with more flirtatious lines to see which will make her smile (or maybe even blush) instead of relying on the same ones.
While he's always been one to easily gain crushes, he's never stayed hooked on someone like this for so long.
Just the other day he almost missed an important clue on a case because he was thinking about how she'd react if he kissed her knuckles! He's never that distracted while on the case.
April lights up when she sees him walk through the door and that solidifies his will. Before he leaves today, he's asking her out.
"Welcome back, Heizou." She says and his heart flutters a little. His name sounds so pretty from her lips. "What'll it be today?"
He racks his brain for the pastry he'd wanted to try next, smiling as she brightens more when he mentions it. His drink order is easier as it hasn't changed thus far and she nods.
"That's a great choice! Feel free to have a seat while I get that ready for you." April says with a smile and Heizou chuckles softly.
"Mmโ€ฆ Is a certain beautiful barista going to take her break to spend with me again?" He asks. It's happened a few times since the first, but not every day he's been in. Sometimes, she's too swamped to take the break at the moment.
A coy grin spreads across her face. "I think I can manage that. Only if a certain unfairly pretty boy goes to sit down." She giggles when his face turns pink at her throwing his words around on him and he goes to sit down as she's requested.
Heizou watches as she bustles around behind the counter to ready his order, smirking a little when she sets the sign on the counter that indicates she's taking a break.
"Here you go." April says as she sets down his food and drink, returning to the counter for a moment to grab her own. Every time she comes over without some kind of snack for herself, he always suggests for her to grab one so she's started doing it ahead of time.
They sit in silence for a moment as they begin to eat. As soon as he's taken the first bite of his pastry, she gets that look in her eye she does every time he tries something new. It makes him laugh softly. "This is good. Are you capable of making something I won't like?" He teases, chuckling more as her face turns pink.
"Mm, I dunno. You'll have to keep coming in here to see. Thoughโ€ฆ if you do order something you don't like. Tell me. I won't take it personal, I promise. I'd just want to give you something you actually enjoy." She says and he hums softly.
"Only if you let me pay for both." He huffs softly when she looks like she's about to complain. "Even if it's something not to my tastes, you are still the one who made it and thus, the one who deserves to be paid fairly for it. I will not let someone as precious as you be snubbed of something you deserve."
Her expression softens and the prettiest blush spreads across her face. The words to ask her out rise to his tongue but he barely restrains them, not wanting to cut off whatever response she'll make.
"You're too kind. But I'll accept that." She says with a smile. "You have a good heart, Heizou." She lets out a soft sigh. "It's a shame. Someone like you has to have their eye set on someone." Her words are quieter but not enough that he doesn't understand them.
"I do." He murmurs, continuing even as her expression falls slightly. "And she's sitting in front of me now."
April's eyes widen and she murmurs his name softly. Heizou smiles at her. "Actually, there's been something I've been wanting to ask you this whole time."
"That is?" She asks, raising an eyebrow as she sips at her drink.
"Would you like to go on a date with me?" He asks. Her eyes widen more and he's rambling words before he can stop them, mentioning that there's no pressure of anything more if she doesn't want it but that he simply had to ask.
Her laughter, bright and warm, cuts him off. "Of course, I would. That sounds lovely." Her smile melts him from the inside and he's grinning back at her instantly.
"Wonderful." Heizou says and she giggles softly. They plan out the when of the date while finishing up the rest of their food.
"Mmโ€ฆ My break's just about over and if I'm right, so is your lunch." April murmurs and he nods. "Then I hope the rest of your day goes well."
"Thank you. Yours as well."
They share a soft smile before Heizou comes up to the front to pay. "Now, will I be seeing you again before our date?" April asks and Heizou chuckles.
"Mm, most likely. I seem to have made a decent pattern of coming in every dayโ€ฆ" He trails off and smiles as she giggles. "See you tomorrow?"
"Sounds good. Bye, Heizou." She waves at him as he leaves, both of them excited about the date to come.

Heizou... Where to start with him? Maybe for starters, I really want to kiss his moles (youโ€™ll see in a second) but theyโ€™re so cute!! I love getting to spend time with him and I adore the fact that he tries to come in often to my bakery <3 Even if I canโ€™t take my lunch break with him, itโ€™s delightful getting to see him.
Tumblr media
(actually the moles are kinda hard to see - one is under each eye :3)

Whatโ€™s This?
F/O: Heizou (Genshin Impact) | Word Count: 1132 | Warnings/Tags: None - itโ€™s pretty fluffy
A/N: First meetings w/ Heizou :3 Honestly, itโ€™s kind of silly how behind I actually am on posting these fics (like the list is long...) I should probably start uploading more often but enjoy this for now! :D
Tumblr media
Heizou strolls through the streets of Inazuma City, humming to himself as he considers which of the many food stalls he wants to stop at this time. He just wrapped up a major case so he has a little extra time for lunch and he intends on taking advantage of that extra time to have something especially delicious.
"Hmm, what's this?" He murmurs. Maybe he spent a little too much time locked away at the agency, because he does not remember this building being used for something. He slowly approaches and glances at the sign in front, growing more and more curious.
"Hah, guess I know where I'm eating lunch todayโ€ฆ" He says as he heads inside. Heizou instinctively stops and looks around once he gets in, though he knows he doesn't need to be on guard. If this business wasn't supposed to be here, Kujou Sara or someone from the Tenryou Commission would've put a stop to this.
He strolls over to just behind the counter to peer at the menu written out above in a pretty handwriting. Half of the types of pastries are unrecognizable to him, but given the paintings of other nations in the room, maybe that's not so surprising.
"Welcome in!" A voice greets him, accompanied by the prettiest laugh Heizou's ever heard. "I know it's a lot, especially your first time in, so if you want, I do have a menu that explains each pastry better."
Heizou laughs softly. "That would be helpful, thank you." He says and he finally looks down from the larger menu to the barista in front of him.
Woah. Now he certainly knows he's never been here, because he would remember meeting someone this beautiful.
"Here you go. Feel free to have a seat while you decide." She says, smiling at him and he nods, struck silent by how pretty she is. He heads over to an open table and sits down, taking a moment to allow his racing heart to slow before he opens the menu.
It takes a bit but soon he's decided on what he wants to try first. He returns to the counter, feeling strangely shy as he rattles off what he wants to order.
"Those certainly are great choices." She says. "I'll have that out for you in a moment. Why don't you have a seat?"
"Mm, I could. But it'd be a shame not to know the name of the most beautiful girl I've ever met." Heizou says. As confident as he sounds, he's still nervous. Not everyone likes being flirted with like this and they've literally just met.
The barista laughs again, her cheeks faintly red. "Ah, a charmer, are we?" His own face heats up and she laughs, a bit softer. "I'm just teasing. My name is April. And you are?"
"Heizou." He answers, a bit too quickly. But it simply causes her to laugh again. His heart flutters at the sound of her laughter.
"Take a seat, Heizou." She says with a smile that nearly has him melting. "I'll bring your food to you in a moment."
Heizou nods and returns to the table he had been sitting at, watching as she works to make the drink he ordered. As much as he doesn't want to be obvious that he's staring at her, his eyes keep returning to her no matter how many times he looks away.
Just as she said, April comes over to his table a few moments later and sets his food down in front of him. He blinks a little when she slides into the seat in front of him.
A coy smile spreads across her face. "It just so happens to be time for my break." She says. "You don't mind, do you?"
"Not at all." Heizou says with a grin. "I just wasn't expecting someone as beautiful as yourself to want to sit with me."
"Mm, well, you've definitely been the cutest customer I've had today, so that helps." She says, giggling when his face turns red at her words.
"Don't you want to eat something on your break?" He asks, the beginning of the question a little shaky. He certainly wasn't expecting her to flirt back, that never happens to him!
She looks unsure and he laughs softly. "Go on. I'm sure you have time." She nods and rushes off, returning quickly with a mug and a plate of her own. "There we go." Heizou murmurs, sounding pleased.
April giggles softly and the two of them start to eat. April watches carefully as Heizou takes a bite of the pastry he ordered. "How is it?" She asks after a moment.
"Amazing." Heizou murmurs, sounding awed enough that she can almost see stars sparkling around his head.
"I'm glad." She says with a grin. As the bakery owner, it's nice to hear that her baking is appreciated, but there's another layer to this in that she's glad that he's enjoying her baking.
"I'm definitely coming back here." Heizou says after a few more bites. "So many of those pastries sounded delicious - who knows if my favorite could come from another nation? Plus, getting to see you each time will be a treat in itself."
April laughs softly, her heart fluttering at how earnestly he said that. "Ooh, we've barely been open a few days and I've already gained a regular? How nice." She says. "Just from this, I already know it'll be a delight to see you in here more often."
"Is that so?" Heizou muses, causing April to giggle. The two eat in a comfortable silence and April collects the empty dishes.
"Sadly, my break must come to an end. You're welcome to stay as long as you'd like, though." She says and he hums softly, looking outside and judging the angle of the sun.
"It seems my lunch has also come to an end. But believe me, I'll definitely be back in here." He says, rising to his feet. He approaches the counter to pay for his pastry and drink, leaving a little extra Mora on the counter for her.
"Keep it." He says when she tries to give him the extra back, a cheeky grin on his face. "Use it to treat yourself. Someone as pretty as you should be spoiled often."
April laughs softly but sweeps the Mora into a separate pouch. "Have a great day, Heizou!" She calls out as he leaves.
"You too!" Heizou replies, stepping out of the bakery and into the warm sun, grinning to himself.
This has certainly gotten interesting. He hadn't expected to find someone who caught his attention as much as she did. He looks forward to getting to know her more.
Maybe something could come from this playful flirting.
Heizou certainly hopes so.

Man alive! It seems someone beat me to answering random questions, but eh. Iโ€™m still gonna do it. The happier we can make April, the better, right? Hehe - Heizou
7. I have a feeling you were the one to fall for s/i first. Were you the first one to have feelings for the other?
You caught me! I fell for her the instant I saw her. Now, crushes are not unusual for me, but when I kept coming back to Treats of Teyvat (her bakery) every single day... I knew Iโ€™d been hooked. I could tell she was a match made in Celestia, and look at us now! Seems my intuition is always right.
2. What have you been up to with s/i lately? Did anything fun happen in the last couple of days?
Of course! The weekend is always fun since itโ€™s when both of our days off collide. Saturday was perfect since we had a bit of a lazy day, spending the entirety of it cuddling and staying in. Sunday, however, we went on a walk around the whole of Narukami Island. Now that fallโ€™s here, the leaves are changing color and it was perfect getting to share in the scenery with her.
21. Date night! If you had to come with a dream date with s/i, what would it look like?
Ah, I think this is a bit too cheesy, but anythingโ€™s perfect so long as Iโ€™m with her. But if I had to choose something... I think doing some kind of escape room would be fun! Iโ€™d love to see how perceptive she is in that kind of scenario. Especially if we came home after and spent the evening snacking and cuddling together! That would be perfect.
9. Do you have any nicknames for each other?
Of course, we do. I call her all the typical ones like โ€˜love, sweetheart, darlingโ€™ and the like and sheโ€™ll do the same in return. I do specifically call her โ€˜my lightโ€™ as sheโ€™s the light in the darkness for me. Darkness comes with the job, Iโ€™m afraid, but Iโ€™ll be fine so long as I come home to her light every night. Sheโ€™ll also call me her favorite detective and โ€˜Zou as a shortening of my name. I think theyโ€™re cute nicknames.

ty! i'll answer for heizou <3
5. What do yโ€™all do for breakfast?
depending on our mood, one of us will cook breakfast or we'll stop by some of the food stalls at the morning market to buy breakfast instead
7. Do you ever get to sleep in? Or is it always early mornings?
weekends we usually sleep in unless he's in the middle of a case (he tends to push himself a lot more when he's actively working on one). on weekdays, we both have work that sadly requires early mornings
9. If you have any pets, are they allowed to sleep in the bed with you?
we don't currently have any pets, but i feel like they would be allowed to sleep in the bed with us most nights

ty :3 i'll answer for Heizou
๐Ÿˆ - do you and your f/o have any pets? how many and what are their names?
we don't. not yet anyway! i could see us getting a cat though in the future :3
๐Ÿ‘ถ - do you and your f/o plan to have children? if you already have children, how many and what are their names?
no plans yet. it's a little too early in the relationship for that. but it's a possibility for the future
๐Ÿ”ฅ - how do you and your f/o deal with and resolve struggles within your relationship?
we sit down and talk about whatever the problem is. as teasing as heizou can be, he does have his serious moments (comes with his job i suppose) so we make sure to listen to what the other has to say and come to some kind of compromise. and there's a mutual agreement to voice any issues we do have (though sometimes, he can tell i have a problem with something before i do - he reads me too well at times)

Bell bottoms, flower power, mini skirts!

I'll answer for Heizou :3
BELL BOTTOMS- Do you and your F/O share clothes? Who lends, and who wears?
Yes, we do! Both lend and both borrow, I guess? Like I've definitely worn his clothes out (his more casual clothes anyway not like his usual outfit) and he's stolen hoodies and sweaters of mine, so it's pretty equal.
FLOWER POWER- What acts of kindness have you and your F/O done for each other?
Every time he comes to the cafe for lunch, I'll write him a note on a little piece of paper to like encourage him as he works on the next case. If I'm running low on a specific ingredient and he finds out about it, he'll drop by with more (somehow exactly when I need it most). Basically, we're the other's biggest supporter :3
MINISKIRTS- What about your F/O do you find attractive?
Well, his voice for sure. His eyes are another - that shade of green is just so pretty and <3333. Just everything about him <3
