Steve is standing in front of the stove when Eddie stumbles downstairs. Steve’s eyes are on a pan and he’s mumbling softly to himself.
Eddie walks closer and hears Steve mumble, “runny yolks…let’s pull it off now.” Eddie is seated at the breakfast bar by the time Steve turns slightly to move the fried eggs on a plate.
Steve jumps slightly at the sudden sight of him before smiling brightly, “Good morning! I thought I was going to have to wake you up!” He cuts the toast sitting to the side, plates it with the eggs before placing it in front of Eddie.
Steve turns around with a fork before hesitating, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Eddie has his head propped up on two fists with a large closed-mouthed smile as he looks at Steve. Steve huffs and puts a hand on his hip at the continuing silence, “What?!” he questions.
“You like me.” Eddie answers with that same bright smile, “What?” Steve asks again with a laugh.
“You liiiiiiike me!” Eddie exclaims, “you like me so much you wanna get my eggs right!”
Steve rolls his eyes as he drops the fork by Eddie’s plate, “eat your breakfast.” Eddie snickers to himself.
“Stevie’s got a cruuush on meee,” he sings, “he wants to make me breakfast and date me and-and be my boooyfriend.”
Steve takes a bite of his toast as he eyes Eddie. He takes in his tall figure, his curly hair trying to escape the half-ass pony tail he has it in, his faded red boxers and black tank top with a hole in the bottom right. His pale limbs and long fingers that are ringless and the faint pillow lines from Steve’s pillows on the side of his face.
Steve smiles, besotted.
“Yeah,” he answers softly, “that’s pretty accurate.”
Eddie stares back at him, mouth agape before he flushes bright red and tries to hide his face with his hair.
“Steeeeeve,” he whines, “that’s so embarrassing, man!” Steve laughs as Eddie abandons his breakfast to wrap his arms around his waist and nuzzles in close to him.
“I’m a mere mortal! I can’t handle all these feelings!” He says dramatically. Steve snickers as he holds Eddie and sways them back and forth.
“Eddie has a cruuuush on me,” Steve sings to Eddie’s loud ‘ugh!’, “he wants to date me and kiss me and looove me.”
Eddie pulls back to kiss Steve softly before smiling against his lips and saying, “Yeah…that’s accurate.”

Gwyar in tall Hounds clothes. thats it thats the tweet.
(specifically maybe the Hound putting their big cloak around Gwyar to keep them warm and cozy... or maybe Gwyar wearing one of MCs shirts after some bedroom exercise 👀)
Omg Gwyar wrapped in MC'd cloak is so cute... also considering servants have cloaks of a lesser quality than the Consort, so MC's is warmer and feels so comforting. Good luck getting the cloak back, Gwyar will do the puppy eyes if MC tries to take it off of them.
Gwyar cuddling naked to MC after some time together, then getting up warly and wearing MC's shirt (as a dress, given the size) because it both comforts them and, let's be honest, they will innocently want to see MC's reaction to the view

It's no secret that both Toby and Jack are becoming fast friends, however, it's not like the two have outwardly said anything about it. Even so, seeing the two interact is an interesting display.
Other another note, Toby is usually the one who strings Jack along, showing him something new or taking him out of his room.
Or 4 times Toby shows Jack something new and 1 time Jack teaches something to Toby in turn as well as 5 times the other pasta notice something is up with their fellow pasta's.

1. The Good Old Days
When Adrien gives her his present, he’s positively beaming, and his excitement is contagious. His joy translates into curiosity for Marinette, and as she asks if it’s okay to open his present on the spot, he gets even more excited.
It’s not a big box, and the packaging is clumsily done. She loves it all the more. But however much she tries, she still has to tear it to get to what’s inside.
“A couple months back I heard you say that you hate taking pictures because you always drop your phone,” he says at the same time as she finally looks inside.
A camera. And boxes upon boxes of film.
“Now you have something you can’t drop as easily,” he continues.
Marinette can only raise her eyes and gape at him.
He’s positively glowing.
Somehow, she musters some words, looking at the camera one second and him the next. “But this is a Polaroid,” she says in lieu of a proper response. It’s expensive, it’s too much, it’s perfect. “With tons of film!”
He chuckles. And winks. “Go wild!”
“But this must’ve cost you a fortune!”
“Not really,” he says, but he must see the doubt in her eyes.
He leans forward and puts his hands on her shoulders, hitting her with a proud grin. He’s not even trying to hide how pleased with himself he is.
“You deserve so much more! This is just a small present and I hope you like it.”
The last thing she’d want is to make him feel like she doesn’t like his present, but it’s a weird feeling. He might be saying it’s not much, but it doesn’t feel like it.
“I love it!” she sputters her response, mind almost as blank as all the film in the box. “But wow, it feels like a lot.”
Adrien takes his hands off her shoulders, clasping them behind his back and rocking back on his heels.
She misses the warmth of his closeness but at least she can breathe a bit more normally.
“How about this,” he starts again, changing tactics. His expression is thoughtful but there’s still that note of excitement that hasn’t left his eyes. “Since I got yours, I’ve been thinking about getting one for myself too. How about I do that and we become Polaroid buddies?”
On the one hand, she doesn’t want him to spend even more money on her. Can it even be considered spending money on her?
But on the other, she likes the idea of sharing this little thing with him. She imagines them going on photo-taking dates. Being silly, and serious, and artistically invested in the littlest of things—together. And it’s her birthday. She’s allowed to be selfish. Especially when he seems so happy at the idea.
So she gives a tentative nod—and his face lights up again.
“I hope you’ll have so much fun with it!” he says, beaming at her.
It’s her turn to wink at him. “We’ll have fun together.”
“You don’t have to wait until I get mine to start taking photos with yours, though!”
She hums, bringing the camera out of the box to inspect it. She has no idea what to do with it, but she still points it at him.
“I can do this, then?” she asks, smirking as she mimics snapping a photo.
His face takes on the most precious expression—so betrayed, that she can’t help a laugh.
Still chuckling, she puts the camera back in the box not noticing Adrien taking out his phone. The snap of a photo brings her back to reality, and he grins at her, quickly switching off his phone again.
“You won’t even show me?” she asks, raising an eyebrow at him, while trying to sneak a glance at the dark screen.
“Nope, mine now.”
“Then I’ll just have to surprise you with a picture too.”
He lifts a shoulder in a careless half-shrug, but his eyes twinkle and his smile is wide. “I guess it’s on, then.”
Two days later, his chat bubble pops up with three new messages, fired all at once.
He bought his own Polaroid—the exact same model as hers. And Marinette has a photo-date to overthink, scheduled for the next day.
2. Hymn for the Weekend
The déjà vu hits her like thunder and lightning: just a quick flash, but strong—and echoing.
It’s nothing unusual. Just her and Chat Noir at the end of their patrol. The sun is casting him in bronze and gold while the slight summer breeze is turning the moment into something ethereal.
After months of photo-dates, it’s muscle memory, really.
She takes her yoyo, turns it to him, and snaps a picture of his profile in all its glory.
He looks like a snippet of a dream that leaves Ladybug still watching the picture of him even after he turns curious eyes to her.
An eyebrow raised, a corner of his lips quirked up in the beginning of a smile.
She snaps another quick photo.
“You reminded me of a friend right there,” she says, fighting the pull of the picture and reluctantly taking her eyes off of it. Did he remind her of Adrien only after she took the picture? Did she take the picture because he reminded her of Adrien in the first place?
“How so?” he asks, raising his second eyebrow as he turns to her properly.
He makes an exaggerated sound, groaning like an old man as he pulls his legs under him and settles into a more comfortable position.
“I have this friend…” she starts, not quite knowing how to continue.
They take photos together, but it’s more than that. They go on dates, but they’re not quite dates. They spend too much time in front of Adrien’s car talking about the school day and their future plans, and it’s nothing and everything all at once.
She settles on, “We’ve been going around the city to snap pictures for a couple of months now.”
Chat Noir’s face brightens with every word, somehow.
“I didn’t know you were into photography, M’lady!”
“Yeah, I never expected to like it so much,” she admits, opening the gallery on her yoyo. The two pictures of Chat Noir greet her right at the top of her list, innocent and condemning all at once.
She’d been resisting the shy urge to take pictures with her yoyo. It’s no fun if she can’t show them to anyone. But every now and then, every time she sees a building covered in green, or an old couple holding hands, or kids being kids—every time she sees a special moment, she feels the urge to immortalize it in shiny paper and pin it in the album she’d been building.
But the most special of moments are the ones she and Adrien had been competing over—the ones only they are privy to. Sweet little smiles, sunbeams, leaves dusting their shoulders with light; a secret they’re not even aware of and which the other somehow manages to capture.
She still has pictures she hasn’t shown him, all arranged carefully in an album of their own, decorated with washi tape, and fancy markers, and little illustrations she hopes will make Adrien’s day when she finally gives the completed album to him.
And in those two pictures—in those two pictures Chat Noir is Adrien. Lost in thought and ethereally beautiful.
“I’ve been taking a lot of photos recently too,” he says, leaning forward to take a peek at her gallery.
She resists the urge to shy away and reluctantly hands him the yoyo.
“Promising profile pictures, right here,” she says, trying to change the subject. She wants to share every detail with him, yet she wants to hide away those two pictures and put them in a special frame fitting for how precious they feel.
She doesn’t really understand why they feel precious.
“And replace the masterpiece I already have?”
She shakes her head, hoping he thinks it’s a response to the meme he’s had as a profile picture ever since he’d made a Twitter account, but she’s just trying to shake off the feeling that there’s something she’s missing.
The habit seeps into their hero lives, tens of new pictures appearing on her yoyo and his baton.
Two months later she finally finds out what she was missing.
She prints out those two first photos.
One, she adds to Adrien’s album with a smile and a mischievous glint in her eyes. The other, she keeps to herself, to pin in a corner of her corkboard.
3. Best Day of My Life
Chloé could not conceive the idea that they wouldn't have a movie-worthy prom at the end of high school.
Sometimes her stubbornness truly did wonders.
She wanted a prom, so she had a prom—held in her father’s hotel, barely any different than her last birthday party.
But the photo booth is new—set up nicely in a corner, a sparkly curtain as background and a table full of props right beside.
It’s the first thing Marinette notices when she enters the room with Alya, Nino and Adrien, eyes going back to it even as Alya leads them to their table.
Chloé is impatiently tapping her foot when they get there. Her shoes make the sound carry even over the music. It’s just background noise for the moment, only loud enough to cover up the emptiness.
“Took you long enough,” she says, slightly annoyed.
Marinette turns right in time to catch her rolling her eyes, so she quirks an eyebrow as she sets down her purse on the table. She meant to say something, but her mind chose to focus entirely on the way Adrien pulled a chair for her, instead.
She sits down and hopes her makeup hides the blush she feels rising to her face as Adrien pushes her chair and takes the seat next to her.
“We aren’t even late, no one else is here yet,” Nino says, taking off his blazer and rolling his sleeves.
“Well, you’re the organizers, you’re supposed to be here early.”
Marinette is quick to respond. “You hired an entire team to make sure this runs smoothly. You didn’t let us lift a finger for this.”
Not that it affects Chloé in the slightest. “You’re the organizer’s friends, you’re supposed to be here early.”
“You got bored and told me to hurry up,” Adrien finally speaks up, snorting, but Marinette has seen his excitement.
He could barely contain it.
If Chloé hadn’t called him, he would’ve showed up early anyway. Chloé only called an hour early. He’d shown up on Marinette’s balcony even earlier, catsuit dissolving into slacks and a navy button-up, sleeves rolled up his forearms and a tie hanging undone around his neck.
He made Marinette do the knot. Then started pestering her to dress up too.
Then Chloé called and she actually did start to dress up
“My point exactly.”
“Well, we hurried up,” Alya said, pouring herself a glass of water and watching Chloé over the brim. “What now?”
“Now you wonder at my competence and then we go take pictures.”
They laugh. Because it’s their prom, and it’s like in the movies, and it’s surreal. And it’s funny, it’s so funny, how they’re here and living a moment that’s supposed to be big, and important, and big.
It’s their moment.
And, well, isn’t it? They’re alone in an enormous ballroom, and their excitement charges the air like electricity before a storm.
Marinette takes a hold of the camera hanging from her neck and takes it off with a sigh, glancing at the photo booth. “This is useless isn’t it?”
It wasn’t a burden per se. But it was still bulky enough to be slightly inconvenient. And it was one more thing to keep an eye on all night.
“Of course not,”Adrien jumps in, taking it from her hands fast enough that she doesn’t have time to react.
They’ve been doing it long enough to know what’s going to happen next.
Marinette closes her eyes, but she’s smiling.
The camera shutters and a photo comes out with a whoosh that she’s all too familiar with.
Before the first people start showing up, they’ve already hit the photo booth three times. They have complete reign over the machine, and they can pick whatever props they want.
Marinette especially loves the set of photos where all of them are wearing wigs and laughing at each other instead of paying attention to the screen.
The night is less magical than she imagined, yet somehow more. Just in a different way. There’s laughter—a lot more than she’d expected. And dancing—a lot of jumping around rather than the slow dances she’d been hoping for. And there’s their group stuffing their faces with the Dupain-Chengs’ fantastic pastries that Chloé made sure wouldn’t be missing.
Then, there’s the waltz. It’s the epitome of what she’d dreamed of—and it’s not. It’s her, and Adrien, with absolutely no space between them, laughing the whole time, as Adrien looks at her like she’s the stars and the moon, and—is it really something new? Is it not how she looks at him as well?
She dares a spark of hope, but she’s too busy enjoying the moment—being content—to really think about it or be disappointed that nothing really happens. There’s no dip and kiss at the end, there’s no dramatic confession following their clumsy attempt at being dramatic dancers.
The night is young until it isn’t, and when they go for a final round of photos after most students have already left it’s just their group again. Marinette’s feet hurt, and her cheeks hurt, but she’s happy.
She picks up a headband with antennae on top and hands Adrien one with cat ears—a subtle nod at everything they’re hiding, just for them to see and remember.
He’s holding a thin stick with a message to his chest, so close to him, she can’t see what it’s written on it, but she smiles. He returns the smile as he takes the prop from her and puts it on his head with a mischievous excitedness she simply loves.
She sets up the machine, and takes a quick look at Adrien on the screen. The countdown has already started, but he’s not looking at her, he’s looking at the message with a thoughtful expression.
She doesn't think much of it, until she’s next to him, eyes still glued to the screen, and the message is turned around for her to finally see.
It’s reversed, on the screen. Seen in the mirror. But she could read those words upside down and in a hundred languages and still know what they mean.
The count is down to one. She hears the snap of the photo, but everything is already lost to her. It’s only Adrien and the Comic Sans “I love you” he holds with a nervous expression, and his eyes—on her, only ever on her.
That first photo catches her with an open mouth and wide eyes. The second, has Adrien handing her the message—clumsily, somehow still unsure, as if she hasn’t been dreaming of that for the past too many years. The third—the third shows her with her hands on his cheeks and their eyes locked together carrying a conversation only they can understand.
And the last, gloriously big, bigger than all other three, with a fancy generic message at the bottom to remind them it’s from their prom and nowhere else—the last shows them finally, finally kissing.
4. Let’s Get Married
There are icy webs covering the locks on Pont des Arts, and stray snowflakes lingering on them when the wind doesn’t blow.
Adrien catches a picture of her looking at one before she even has the time to register what he’s doing.
His laughter fills the air with warmth when she raises her polaroid to take one of him as well.
He puts the photos safely in a bag he always carries for these dates and goes to give her a quick peck on the cheek.
The kiss was only half an excuse to get close enough to ask quietly, “Is he still there?”
A quick glance over his shoulder gives her the answer. He is. He’s barely trying to be sneaky anymore.
The man has been following them for the better part of their date—clumsily, probably a beginner, still eager for the easy money that came with intruding in a celebrity’s personal life.
After they first noticed him, they tried ignoring him.They’re not doing anything interesting, just taking photos the same way they do every month on photo-dates which have long since become tradition. But the man is persistent.
So Marinette nods and Adrien catches her hand in his with a resigned sigh. “I’m starting to doubt he’ll get bored of us.”
“You’d think he would after watching two people walk around and take pictures of random things for an hour.”
He pouts at her. “I only took pictures of you! Please, give me some credit.”
“Always, Chaton. But you should really slow down or we’ll need to buy another album before spring is even here.”
“Can’t help it when you’re the most beautiful person to walk the earth,” he says, squeezing her hand and going for a quick peck.
Eyes half lidded, she doesn’t give up. “You see me everyday.”
“And every day I thank God for that.”
The kiss they share is a proper one this time, sweet and warm, though still much too quick. For a second, they’re silent after.
“I can't wait until you’re the first thing I see in the morning,” Adrien finally says.
She can’t either, but she can’t help teasing him either way. “Bleary eyes, and morning breath, and all?”
“And messy hair and the most gorgeous eyes, yes,” he responds, giving her a wink.
She sees the moment he gets the idea. He squints the slightest bit as his eyes gleam with more mischievousness rather than love and blissfulness.
“I think I know how to deal with our stalker.”
“He does not need to know we’re moving in together.”
He laughs, because it’s absurd but because it’s still a bit surreal too. They’re doing it. They’re moving in together.
“I mean, that would work too,” he says, still chuckling. “But that’s not what I had in mind.”
She quirks an eyebrow. There’s an extremely simple solution to this, and she still feels obligated to say it—just for the sake of it, really.
“We could just continue our walk, get into the bakery like we planned and get it over with quietly.”
But.
“But where’s the fun in that, princess.”
After all, birds of a feather flock together.
So she moves her head with a curious little shake and waits for him to voice his idea. He doesn’t disappoint.
“We could give them the real big news.”
She squints her eyes. “Not even all of our friends know yet.”
“We better get around to telling everyone faster, then. The photos would take at least until tomorrow to come out though.”
And then, with his most Chat Noir smirk, he lands the killing blow. “I can make it look like an accident.”
It’s her turn to laugh.
“I’m not even wearing gloves, he might have already seen the ring.”
“I think he needs to be hand-held into taking his precious picture,” he says, raising her left hand ever so slightly and asking for permission with his eyes.
She can’t help the giddy smile on her face—she’s been wearing it almost constantly for the entire two days they’ve been engaged.
Marinette briefly entertains the idea of being responsible, but she’s too happy to think rationally. She wants to shout her happiness to the whole world, she wants to talk about his love for hours on end, she wants everyone to know, and even though they’d discussed keeping their engagement a secret, they knew they couldn’t escape it getting out with how much people still fawned over Adrien.
So she lets him raise her hand further, bringing it to his lips in a cheeky kiss that still fills her with all the warmth in the world.
Maybe the paparazzo misses that too, but they stop paying attention to him, and in the twenty minutes left until they’re back to her house, they change the subject altogether. Talking about their future wedding is much better after all.
And when, properly zoomed in and dramatically showcased, the picture of Adrien kissing her hand—her ring—makes the front page of a gossip rag the very next day, their wedding becomes the talk of a lot more people.
5. Stardust
As the confetti explodes in the air around them and the fireworks in the cake light up their faces, Marinette feels so overwhelmed with happiness she could cry.
After a year of talking, and planning, and preparing, she and Adrien are married.
Adrien’s eyes are already on her when she turns her head to him, his gaze already soft and even more loving than usual. The fireworks bring to life a spark that was always there but which now everyone can see, not just him, not just her.
Their glasses clink as they toast, and the people cheer.
They’re on top of the world.
She’s having the time of her life.
Though her feet ache, Marinette is still reluctant to take a break and just sit down.
She goes outside instead, and even though she’s not exactly inconspicuous, she’s still able to steal a moment for herself on the furthest edge of the pool outside of their venue.
She watches the fairy lights hanging above, glimmering in the still water below.
The summer night is still warm, but there are few people enjoying it. Most of the guests that haven’t left for the night yet are inside, taking advantage of the remaining moments of music and fun.
The night is beautiful, but the end of the party is looming in the calmer atmosphere and the music that only faintly reaches outside anymore.
Arms crossed lightly to her chest and eyes focused on the lights, she doesn’t notice Adrien until he gives himself away.
The telltale click of his old Polaroid going off startles her—and has her smiling.
“You’re a sight to behold, My Lady,” he says, catching the photo coming out of the camera with practiced ease and slipping it into his vest’s pocket before it even starts showing.
His sleeves are rolled up his forearms and his tie has long since been abandoned on the back of his chair. He’s glorious.
“That’s the pot calling the kettle back, Chaton.”
She lifts up the camera hanging from his neck and turns to put it away on a lounge chair nearby.
They gravitate towards each other like they always do, her arms around his neck and his around her waist the second she’s back, all the space between them lost as they embrace.
The music inside is a boppy tune from before they were even born, but it’s music, and that’s all Adrien needs to start swaying gently, with small movements of his feet that Marinette has no trouble following despite her tiredness.
They’re in their own little bubble, and Marinette wouldn’t change it for the world.
“Tired, Bugaboo?” he asks after a minute or two of rocking away in silence.
Her only response is a neutral ‘mm’, but she tears herself away from him to see him better.
The proximity makes her catch a stray sparkle in his hair and whatever she wants to say is forgotten as she focuses on that instead.
“There’s confetti in your hair,” she realizes with a chuckle.
“There is?”
She hums a confirmation, but doesn’t make any move to take it away, and neither does he. “Stardust,” she says, eyes drifting back to his.
So the confetti stays, and they keep swaying, gentle smile brightening his face more than the fairy lights.
“Maybe we should go back in,” he says after a while.
She only gets back closer and grumbles, “Too tired.”
But he picks her up with years of practice in sweeping her off her feet, and startles a squeak out of her—and a giggle.
“People will think we’ve left.”
“People can see to their dances and leave us alone for a second,” she mumbles, arms tightening around his neck, but as he starts walking back towards the venue, she gets a better idea.
Tearing herself away from his warmth for the slightest bit, she finds the confetti and takes it away. “Stardust privileges revoked,” she says, trying to tease him.
She could never beat the master.
“Only if you left me,” he whispers, the corner of his mouth going up. And rubbing his nose to hers, he puts her back down.
Later that week, Alya sends Marinette a picture with no context and no caption. It shows her beside the pool, but in the background, Adrien is carrying Marinette, faces close together and noses touching.
+1. Fireflies
Marinette looks at the muffins on the cupboard with a frown and a hand on her hip.
She’d overestimated how much vanilla they had in their kitchen.
She calls for Adrien, hoping he’d go on a shopping trip as impromptu as her baking, but there’s no response.
It doesn’t take her long to find him, but the sight she’s met with stuns her.
There are pictures everywhere, scattered on the floor and in open albums thrown carelessly around Hugo’s room, with Adrien, Hugo and Emma in the middle of their mess, completely absorbed by the stories in front of them.
Their old cameras are there too—on Hugo’s desk, proud, but dusty. It’s been so long since she’s seen them—since they’d touched them.
She couldn't even remember when they’d put them in the attic—she couldn’t even imagine what prompted Adrien to bring them down.
Her family beckon her to them when they notice her, and she decides her muffins can wait.
The realization that they let go of this hobby is bitter. They used to go out regularly for photo dates, they have so many photos they don’t even know what to do with all of them, the memories are sweet.
There are even still unopened boxes of film beside them—all expired.
As she goes back to the kitchen with Adrien in tow, she gives voice to her thoughts; the idea of buying more film and picking their polaroids up again is thrown around, although more as an abstract thing.
But soon enough, as she’s covering the muffins in whipped cream instead of the vanilla neither of them felt like buying, and Adrien stealing muffins like there’s no tomorrow, the telltale shutter of a polaroid makes them realize how much they’ve truly missed it.
Hugo, ever the spitting image of his mother, stands there with the camera in hand and his father’s grin on his face, his sister just a step behind him with the other Polaroid in tow.
“I wanted to see if they’re still working,” he says, and they’re curious too.
They fill the time needed until the photo finally shows with muffin tasting and banter, but Marinette can’t help stealing glances at the film far too often.
The final picture is tinted yellow and has black stains around the upper edges. But there they are, her and Adrien in all their glory, being as in love as they’d been as kids.
Over her shoulder, Adrien lets out a chuckle.
The next day he’s home with a bunch of new boxes of film and an excited grin on his lips.

i have this headcanon that percy and annabeth are raging accidental flirts. but not with each other. like. they'll go to the coffee shop on fifteenth street. and compliment the barista on his hair and clothes and tip really well. but only for him. and they have no idea this boy is absolutely swooning over them. or. each time they to go the bakery downtown. they take the time to converse with the waitress at the counter as they eat her homemade muffins. and are incredibly vocal about how she's their favorite server. and how much they enjoy seeing her. and suddenly they're the only two customers that can get her services for free. except, they just think she's like that with everyone.

YUCK. andrew hussie was right candy makes you sick. this is a little too saccharine for me. yeesh. let me get back to the meat.#isat#isat spoilers#in stars and time#in stars and time spoilers#isat fanart#in stars and time fanart#isat siffrin#isat loop#sifloop#doodlebyte#'let me get back to the meat' i say eyeing something similarly sickly in my sketches. at least it's mildly tormented as a counterbalance...#you people have no idea how much im having to stay my own hand. oh i can draw miserable nudity but the most basic of fluff? visceral#anyway i dont know the logistics of picking up a glass eye or where loop got money (besides pilfering from siffrin) & ive previously drawn#sif with a vague blank middle-grey eye as either being scarred over or a blank occular prosthesis put in quickly at the nearest town#i dont know that they'd have a glass eye during the game but considering prosthesis are reccomended to keep the skull etc from deforming#id imagine it would probably come up postgame as something to do now theyre not on a time limit trying to save the country#plus i assume that having it gouged at by a sadness wasnt exactly a clean wound by any measure#all this to say. idk i just wanted to get some information across in comic form to Test my Abilities#and we're far enough down now to say my absolute most wretchingly sweet fluff headcanon that actually inspired this#which is that i think siffrin gets into the habit of not wearing the eyepatch around loop so they kinda match.#and as a signifier to the other that they're letting their guard down around them. vulnerability etc.#just kinda wearing it around their neck so they don't lose it

gushing over bf Carmy and he doesn’t even know how sexy he isssss :(((
Carmen—finally—has off from work tonight. Which means it’ll be relaxing for once in the past couple weeks, having time spent with you and you alone, cuddling over a movie, kissing between soft conversations, half-attentive before he’ll finally scoop you up and take you to bed.
But that’s for later.
Right now, though, he emerges in the living room ready for the movie you’d asked him to watch with you. You perk up at his entry and turn around to lean against the back of the couch, caught in a kiss before he starts telling you…well, you can’t seem to keep up.
All that’s on your mind is Carmy Carmy Carmy, so much so that whatever he’s saying doesn’t process, a wave of awe clouding your mind. You get lost in his image for a broad moment, doing little else other than admiring the stretch of his tee against his chest and biceps that tug the fabric just right, the sinew of his forearms tensing as he grips the back of the couch; his curls freshly washed hours earlier, still styled loosely before stressed bouts straighten them, stragglers suspended by his brow bone that charming way you remember when you first met; gray sweats handing loose on his hips, a little less so at the front to make you drool. He looks good, so so painfully good, and he doesn’t even know it. He’s not even trying.
“You listenin’, baby?” You only hear him when he tilts your chin up with his index and thumb—gently, to guide your attention back. “Baby?”
And your head follows, but your eyes still linger along his tensed forearms before they finally acknowledge his words and meet his gaze. “Hm?”
He smiles softly. “Spacin’ out, huh?”
“Sorry—” You bite at your lip. “You’re just so handsome,” you tell him as you look your arms around his neck. “It’s distracting.”
He starts to blush. “Yeah, okay.” But his hands smooth down your back anyway, pausing along the curve of your ass before an adoring squeeze.
“I’m serious, Carmy,” you coo, tugging him down for another kiss and teasing your nails along the nape of his neck. “Most handsome man ever.” One hand cups his jaw before another peck. “And the sweetest,” another smooch to his cheek, “and the prettiest,” and the other side, “and the sexiest,” again to his temple—
“Okay, baby,” he starts, flushed to his neck, but you beat him to the punch—
“And the best boyfriend ever,” you quip, extra sharp before you soothe it with a languid kiss to his lips, smiling against him as his hands run along your spine, slowing you down to sweet kisses until your forehead meets his. “You’re just the best, Bear.” And another, because you can’t help yourself when he looks like this. “So kind, the best chef ever, and so strong…” You bring your hands to paw at his arms again, “So so handsome, and you’re all mine—”
He scoffs, trying to bite back that gush of his heart, that rush of blood down south that has him pressed into the couch. “I think I get it, baby.” Gentle smooch to your forehead. “Thank you.”
You groan and sit on your heels, dragging your hands down his chest, to his middle, then closer to his waistband. Looking up at him with doe eyes and plush pout, you ask, “Take me to bed, Carmy…”
He huffs. “Thought we were watchin’ a movie tonight?”
“Want you t’fuck me instead…” Teasing a little lower, your fingertips graze behind the fabric. “Please?”
And if he thought he was hiding it before, he’s really giving himself away now: head lolling forward with a heady sigh, weight leaning into the couch as his blush spreads to his neck; mind swirling at the thought of you touching him, whining his name some more, pleading with that same pout as he’s making you come beneath him.
In no time he’s bent over to scoop you up from the couch, your giggles ringing in his ear while he carries you to the bedroom.
What, did you expect him to say no to you asking him so sweetly? The movie can wait. It’s your fault for getting him all worked up, anyway.

round two
singledad!atsumu invites you to join him and his daughter for a tour of your new town when you're finally settled in next door. he and his baby girl sat down the night before and made a game plan of what all to do in crayons together.
singledad!atsumu knocks on your door with a coffee in hand just for you. he even remembered you like your lattes extra sweet which you only mentioned once in your first conversation over a week ago.
singledad!atsumu opens the passenger side door for you as his daughter leans up from the back seat to show you the map of town she drew. while he drives you hold out the crayon drawing in front of you and pretend to direct atsumu using your new map.
singledad!atsumu spends most of the day shooting not so sneaky glances your way. the stop of the tour involving ice cream was especially hard for him to keep his gaze away from your lips.
singledad!atsumu drops you off at your doorstep with a shopping bag full of touristy souvenirs and gifts from your day of adventure. with his daughter holding one hand, he uses his other to hold your jaw still as he leans in for a quick kiss on the cheek.
the blush he earned is more than enough to keep the smile on his face for a few days.

Happy birthday, Anthony! I just finished drawing this on April Fools and thought it fits. What better thing to post today than some queerplatonic Radioapple tomfoolery? And the fact that Angel Dust invited himself in it is just one big beautiful bonus! So please enjoy! -Bubbly 💙

Can't get over construction worker!toji watching you like the pretty little thing you are on your phone hurrying to a meeting trying to open this god damn water bottle you just bought. He's eyeing you up and down with a smirk and then suddenly
"Ma'am"
He points at your bottle "I could help help you out with that"
Awestruck you stare at this man who looked like he was carved by god himself, wife beater on, hair sticking to his forehead and god...his arms, sweaty and filthy with something black all in their muscular glory.
He notices you gawking at him but knows you wouldn't appreciate his teasing, you're not that kind of woman.
"Ma'am?" he smiles even wider at you looking up at his eyes with a blush.
"Hmm? oh yes thank you that would be great!"
You swear at yourself for the too excited enthusiasm in your voice and hand him the water bottle which he opens without a hint of struggle. Was he flexing more than normal or was that your imagination betraying you.
"Thank you.."
"My pleasure"
He tips his head at you with that same smirk and you swear you were about to fall on your knees from this man's oozing manly charisma. Straighting up you smile at him and quickly rush away.
Toji smirks back at his fellow construction buddies who just look at him with disgust, very used to him getting all the women at his feet, the worst part? he wasn't even trying.
"You gotta stop doing that" one of them says with a disgusting but also jealous look on his face
"Doin' what? not my fault pretty girls don't look at y'all"
Groans could be heard from his mates while he laughs and gets back to work but before that he turns around one last time to see you walking away to your office thinking of a way to get to see you again.

List of fluff prompts
1. “I gave you one hundred and one reasons to walk away, yet you never did. Why?” “Because I love you. It’s really that simple.”
2. “Remember when we first met here?” “Yeah, of course. That was the day when you spilled coffee on me and apologised profusely but all I could think about was how gorgeous you are and how great it would have been to get your number.”
3. “It’s always been you, and it will always be you. Please never forget that.”
4. “You make me feel all soft and mushy inside.” “That is a good thing, right?” “Of course! You melt me, love.”
5. “You’re an idiot.” “Well, at least I’m your idiot, right?”
6. “You’re the reason why I believe in love, you know?”
7. “Stop back-hugging me while I’m trying to cook! You’re distracting me,” Character A whines, cheeks becoming a delicate shade of rosy pink as Character B nuzzles their neck and mumbles sleepily into their neck, arms only serving to tighten around their waist at their flustered protests.
8. “C’mere and rest next to me. You’ve worked hard enough today.”
9. “You feeling any better?” Character A asks, stroking their fingers through Character B’s hair. “So much better now that you’re here. I love you,” Character B mumbles, snuggling close to them.
10. “You always manage to make me feel like I’m worth it.” “That’s because you are worth it. You’ll always be worth it in my eyes.”

levi period comfort bc why not :)
you’re curled up in a ball on the bed as another wave of stupid cramps kicks in. You’re debating if you should stay in bed or actually find the energy to get up and work. You wince and turn the other way, kicking off the covers because it’s getting too warm.
Suddenly the door opens and levi’s standing there in his uniform, going still when he sees your weak form. He’s not concerned about the fact that you’re in bed past waking hours- he’s more alarmed at how pale you look.
“What happened to you?” he shuts the door, a frown on his face as he walks over and crouches down beside your bed. He takes your hand, kissing your knuckles.
“cramps.”
levi immediately knows what you mean. “are they bad?” you nod and he sighs, brushing the sweaty hair off your forehead as he orders you to stay in bed. He takes the day off for both of you and heads down to the medical room to get painkillers and pads, brewing a cup of tea on the way back.
“drink this, it’s peppermint tea. It’ll help.”
He climbs into bed beside you, spooning you gently as his warm hands rest lightly on your lower abdomen. He always makes sure to be gentle with you on your period, not wanting to aggravate the pain accidentally. While you wait in silence for the pain to subside he whispers words of comfort, playing with your hair.
He’s there for you the whole day, spending time holding you close and bringing anything you need until you feel better.

The Young Justice learns about a new experiment going on at Cadmus once again involving cloning and decides to go rescue the clones. They expertly break into the facility avoiding all alarms only to find out that they trigger anyway. Instead of a voice coming on over the intercoms announcing intruders though, it instead announces an escape. What?
The team continues navigating the base until they come across two kids. The older boy can't be older than 8 while the girl being tugged along behind him looks around 5. The boy narrows his eyes and his body tenses up.
"You're definitely not guards. Who are you?" He questions.
It's Superboy who steps up and says "We're the Young Justice. We came here to rescue you."
The boy doesn't seem to believe them but the girl immediately gets excited. Apparently she couldn't wait to meet real life superheroes. Especially Superboy. That means whatever Cadmus was doing with the kids, they'd already implanted knowledge of the outside world in them. That didn't bode well.
The team decides to push that to the back of their minds for now and focus on the mission. They manage to convince the boy (with the help of the girl) to come with them and they get the two out of the facility. Of course this is after they take all the information they can from the servers (Thanks Robin).
As they get both kids to the medical wing on the Watchtower, the boy introduces himself as Danny and the little girl as his sister Ellie. Connor's never seen clones with such a close bond before and he can admit he's a little jealous that he and Match don't have that kind of relationship. Still he's just happy they rescued the two.
Now to find out who they're clones of and what Cadmus wanted to use them for.
