You stirred in your sleep and opened your eyes. You noticed that your husband Striker was no longer in bed. But this was normal; Striker usually go up early in the morning or at midnight to get ready for a job. You knew what you were getting yourself into when you started dating the outlaw. You closed your eyes for a few seconds, you were still exhausted from work. But you were glad that today was your day off, you fell asleep again but woke up a couple of hours later and decided to start your day. You took a shower and got dressed. You walked into the living room and smiled at the wedding picture on the table. You remembered this day and how you meet Striker. The outlaw had run out onto the road and got hit by your car. You had stopped and panicked seeing that you hit someone. When you placed him in the car and offered to take him to the hospital. He refused to go and ask that you just patch him up, you were unsure of this but nodded. When you had taken Striker in and patched him. He really didn’t talk to you, he seemed more interested in getting patched up and leaving but with his condition. He couldn’t do that yet so he stayed with you for a few weeks. Striker was quite the asshole to you when he was under your roof. He would growl or snap at you when you tried to help him. Refused to eat your cooking because said it sucked. But deep down he loved your cooking and would sneak into the kitchen at night to eat leftovers. You worked as a nurse at a hospital so you knew how to take care of Striker. He slowly started to warm up to you and he would do this by teasing you. Striker was taller than you so he would call you a small fella and sometimes hold items above your head. He would also poke you sometimes or make jokes. Striker did help out around the house, sometimes he would cook and you loved his cooking. “ I guess you could say I’m the better cook. “ Striker chuckled. You rolled your eyes. After Striker was healed. It was time for him to say goodbye; which made you sad. You would hate to admit but you felt something for the outlaw. But you weren’t sure if he liked you or if he liked guys. “ Hey, Striker. “ You said walking up to him, as you watched him get on his horse.

“ Yea, darlin’? “ Striker said. Hearing him say that made you blush but you shook your head, it was too soon to admit your feelings. “ Have a safe trip. “ You said, smiling at him. Striker smirked that smirk you loved so much as his gold tooth glimmered in the sun. “ Thanks for taking good care of me. If I see ya again you better be ya hear me. “ Striker smacked Bombproof with his tail and rode off. You waved goodbye while blushing and smiling. You thought about Striker’s words and nodded, you head back inside. You haven’t seen Striker for a long while, but you did what he said and became a doctor. You had just finished working late and had pulled into your driveway. You got out of your car and yawned. Pulling out your keys. You unlocked the door and walked inside; you switched on the light and jumped seeing Striker sitting on your couch looking beat up and bleeding out; he saw you and smirked. “ Hey, there darlin’ it's been a while. “ Striker said and winced in pain. You quickly close the door and ran over to Striker and were careful with him. “ Striker what the fuck happened!? “ You said and ran to get your med kits. You came back and Striker started removing his clothes and staying in his boxers. You blushed and set the medkit down. You placed his bloody clothes into a bag and started to patch him up. “ I had this job, and this job didn’t go as I planned. I killed the targets but I got a little messed up during the fight. “ He said chuckling and wincing in pain. “ Sorry, and you didn’t get messed up a little you got messed up a lot. “ You said and slipped off your blood gloves. Striker lifted your chin with his finger. “ Yeah, but a cute doctor is patching me up~ “ Striker smirked. You quickly stood up and Striker’s reaction made you laugh. “ But I’m glad you did become a doctor and I wonder if you still make good food. “ Striker stared at you. You smiled. “ I’ll give you some things to clean yourself up with and I’ll make us dinner. Since you are here and I patched you up, then you owe me some catching up okay? “ You said. “ Sir yes sir. “ Striker said and chuckled.

You walked into your room and grabbed a washcloth and a towel for Striker. You found a pair of grey sweatpants and a black T-shirt that could fit him from when a friend was staying with you. You walked out and handed Striker the items. “ Thanks, pumpkin. “ Striker said. “ New nickname? “ You said with a chuckle. “ Oh, little thing I have a bunch of them let's see if you can unlock them~ “ Striker shot you and wink then walked into the bathroom. You stood there smiling and blushing. You walked into the kitchen and decided to make your favorite meal, hopefully, Striker will like it. After cooking you had finished. “ Something smells good and I know it's not just me. “ You turned around to see Striker standing there. His white hair was a mess from showering. You walked up, shit he did smell good. “ Y~Yeah I made (food name). “ You said. Striker grinned and claps his hands together. “ Then what are we waiting for let’s dig in. “ Striker sat down as you made him a plate or bowl of food. You sat down to eat with Striker. The two of you catching up. Striker was proud that you had become a doctor. “ Here darlin’ let me clean those for you. “ Striker said trying to grab your dish. “No, you need to rest Striker. “ You said frowning. Striker chuckled and pulled you close with his tail so that you pressed up against him. “ I’ve been an assassin for years. I know what my body can handle darlin’ and I’m sure you've been on your feet all day. “ Striker stared at you with a serious look. “ You go unwind, my mama taught me how to treat a host the right way. “ Striker smirked and let you go.

You were standing there flustered but walked off. You saw that Striker had gotten the blood stains out of your couch. “ Oh. wow. “ You walked into your room and started to undress so you could shower. You weren’t sure if Striker was flirting or teasing you but those feelings you had for him a while back were returning. But what if he leaves again? You frowned and turned on the shower and washed yourself up. You let the water hit your body and you thought about Striker. You weren’t sure if you would ever tell him. You sighed and turned off the water, you stepped out dried off, and changed into your pajamas. You opened the door and jumped. You saw Striker standing there holding a pack of popcorn and a tub of ice cream. “ I was still hungry and saw you had snacks, wanna watch a movie? “ You smiled and nodded. “ I would love to. “ Striker offered his hand to you. You grabbed his hand and later that night you and Striker were watching an old western movie had had suggested both of you had finished off the ice cream and popcorn. You saw that Striker had fallen asleep at the end of the movie. You stood up carefully sliding him down on the couch. You walked off and returned with a pillow and a black blanket. You carefully slipped the pillow under his head and covered him with it, you watched him stir in his sleep. You smiled and walked off.

You got yourself ready for bed since tomorrow was your day off but you still valued your rest. You got into bed and sat there thinking of Striker and you fell asleep. You planned for a restful sleep but you woke up screaming and crying. But something held, you looked up to see Striker looking at you with a worried look. “ (Y/N) are you okay? I heard ya screaming and crying. Did you have a nightmare darlin? Here scoot over I’mma slide in. “ Striker said. You scoot over and Striker got in your bed and pulled you close and rubs your hand. “ You can tell me what happened if you want. “ He said looking at you with a smile and a caring look. You sighed, you might as well tell him and if he rejects you then at least the nightmare wasn’t wrong. “ I had had feelings for you, I love you Striker, but I had a nightmare that I told you how I felt and you just laughed you kept laughing telling me that you don’t love me. “ Tears threatened to spill again. “ Y~You love me? “ Striker said. You look up to see Striker blushing and had a large grin. “ D~ No, (Y/N) I feel the same way I about you when we first met and you patched me up and you let me stick around I developed feelings for you, I just didn’t know how to tell you. I couldn’t get you out of my head ever since I left. It’s one of the reasons I came back. “ Striker chuckled and you couldn’t help but let the tears fall because you were happy that he felt the same way. “ Strik- “ But you were cut off as Striker kissed you and you kissed him back. The two of you locked in a passionate kiss both of your tails wrapping together and getting tangled. Striker promised to stay in the bed with you and the two of you talked all night.

Striker told you that if you agreed to be his boyfriend then you would have to deal with the outlaw lifestyle the things that came with being an assassin even a couple of rules. You loved Striker so you agreed to be his boyfriend and follow his rules which were no calling him while he is working, no posting pictures of him on your social media, don’t let others know about your relationship with him, and be careful who you trust. Striker had these rules to protect himself and espically you. So you agreed to these rules. Striker held you close and kissed your head. “ I love you bo. “ Striker said as he kept his tail around you. After that night you and Striker continued your relationship. You supported him and he supported you. Of course, now he was no more careful when taking on jobs but even when he got a bit messed up, you were always there to patch him back. Eventually, Striker proposed to you when he made you a fancy homemade dinner. The two of you had a small private wedding but you didn’t care about some grand wedding you had Striker and that’s what made you happy. Striker always made you laugh and smile. He would play songs on guitar for you, even written you a few songs, and maybe sometimes he took you on trips. He always brought you a gift back from his jobs, Striker loved you and he’ll always love you.

-Back In the Present -

You felt someone kiss your neck. “ Striker~ “ You blushed as the cowboy pulled you close while placing his hand on your chest. “ I see my beautiful bo is remembered our wedding day. “ He said also staring at the picture with you. “ And the day we met. “ You said while setting the picture down you turn around and kissed Striker. He held you close and kissed back. “ I still remeber the nervous mess you were when we met. But you were my nervous mess. I’m glad you hit me with your car. “ He said laughing and shaking his head. “ How many times will I have to say sorry, but yes I’m glad I hit you with my car too. “ Striker dipped and kissed you.

just right 🐻🍯 [goldi crush/dating headcanons]

Art Cred: Zac Retz

A/N: Sorry this took so long, I use my phone to write and it's been acting up lately 🥲. Ty for waiting so patiently and I hope you guys can understand!

CW: nothing but fluff and a tiny bit of angst in the beginning??? That's about it!

romantic/crush (x reader);

- With how guarded and abrasive Goldi can be, in my opinion it would take awhile for her to be attracted to someone romantically (I hc her as demi lowkey). So it would definitely have to be something of a friends to lovers situation, and even then Goldi wouldn't pick up on why she felt so..weird around you. Which is funny because it seemed like everyone else knew but her.

- At first she didn't question why she began to feel so nervous but giddy when you came around, opting to ignore the fuzzy feeling as it continued to grow

- She began to notice little things about you that she never did before, like your small pouts whenever she'd jokingly teased you or the way you'd hum a small tune while trying to stay focused

-"Though Goldi didn't care much for appearance before, she started tidying her hair up a bit and making sure she looked clean if she knew you guys were going to meet up– becoming more conscious of how you saw her

- Touches became more lingering and happened more often (I don't see her as such a touchy friend outside of noogies, playful punches, nudges, etc so it would be totally noticeable)

- And yknow those scenes in movies with people longingly staring at each other in the midst of a conversation?? That was you guys-

- Along with that I feel like Goldi would start to show off just a little bit, yearning for some praise (just a lil tho!)

- In general…with a crush I just see Goldi being a bit of a dork, constantly trying to look cool, but still a dork

- Once someone (*cough cough* The Bears) brought these sudden changes to her attention, Goldi would deny anything going on before returning to her bed.

- Even though it seemed so easy for her to deny it, Goldi ended up not getting a wink of sleep that night, questioning everything as she never thought of being anything but friends with you

- Once she actually gave it thought, it was clear to her…she liked you, a whole lot (not like she'd ever admit it though) but she didn't want to ruin what you guys already had

- After said realization, Goldi became a little more hesitant and avoidant towards you. Trying to block out the crush so everything could be "normal" again

- Despite her trying to be subtle, Goldi's avoidance was very much apparent to you, though whenever you tried to bring up concerns she'd give a random excuse for why she's acting so weird and becoming a bit flakey

- Soon enough you get tired of all the excuses and confront her, leading up to her blurting out her true feelings

- She'd tried to convince you that she said something else right after, in a panic as she was not ready emotionally to be rejected but that instead you hugged her and confess your own feelings, reassuring her that you weren't weirded out in the slightest

- At first Goldi would be in shock, silent as she continuously replays what you just said in her head to make sure you really just said what she thought you said

- Full of excitement she'd hug you back in a practically bone-crushing hold, her fears squandered maybe along with a few of your ribs

Romantic/Dating (x reader)

- I feel like the most Goldi knows about romance is from books. So with this knowledge it's clear she'd be pretty inexperienced!

- Despite all that, Goldi would try to take the lead because she feels more comfortable being in control of situations, even so she fumbles at it so hard at first

- To make up for that inexperience, she'd begrudgingly ask her parents for advice…the embarrassment was worth it to treat you well!

- Now that I think about it…I actually feel like Goldi would like feeling like she's leading things while in reality it's 50/50 (she deserves to be wined and dined like the queen she is!!!)

- Though hesitant at first, she's be more open to being cared for over time, it just takes a while because of her stubbornness

- Her love language would be a mix of gift giving and suprisingly physical affection (I really just love the idea of her stealing stuff for a s/o honestly-)

- She'd definitely spoil her lover rotten yet would get really flustered if they did the same 💞

- I also feel like she'd be a bit clingy but in a very quiet way (always subtly touching you/in your proximity) though if you ever said anything she would kinda stop for awhile out of embarrassment

- Playfighting is a given in the relationship, she loves expressing her love through a bit of aggression- SHE LOVES CUTENESS AGGRESSION SO MUCH (nothing ever too rough though)

- Since I'm having fun with this...I mentioned in my gen. hcs for Goldi that she's a biter so...definitely gives little love bites/nibbles on her partner from time to time in private

- An awkward cuddler at first but becomes very obsessed with it after some time in the relationship (loves having you lay on top her like a weighted blanket, the pressure soothes her)

- Not to keen on PDA will hold hands, give brief cheek/hand kisses, or something else that's subtle but nothing beyond that (it flusters her too much >_<)

- On a last note, she has ungodly hand placement without even knowing- she's so oblivious to the way butterflies erupt in your stomach everytime she caresses your waist just right...and it flusters you so much

(There will be a part two so dw about the actual dating hcs being short!)

Taglist: @zenmieisaa

Happy pride! Here's some headcanons.

In-depth explanations beneath the cut (please keep in mind that these are personal and that I actually don't really stand by any that strongly! This is just for fun.)

Sonic: okay do I really need to explain this one?

Knuckles: What can I say, his gender contains multitudes. He's definitely a member of the "I don't care" camp for both gender and sexuality. He is what he is, loves who he loves, and doesn't give two rips about what other people might say. I like to imagine he plays around with both genders of clothing from echidna culture.

Amy: oh Amy, my sweet summer child. It's so autistic and queer of you to relentlessly declare your love for someone of the opposite sex because it's what is expected of you. I did the same in third grade before I realized that the other girls meant what they were saying about their target boy. Heteronormativity is a bitch, get well soon <3

Rouge: I think she fucked around with being she/they for a while before settling back on she/her. And bi icon, of course.

Blaze: okay do I really need to explain this one?

Silver: That is one nonbinary hedgehog if I ever saw one! He's a he/him by convenience alone. He hasn't had the chance to explore his sexuality yet unfortunately.

Big: He's good with he/him and that's all he cares about. Not a super strong connection to his assigned gender at birth but he likes being a boy well enough. As for his sexuality, he never figured out what everyone was going on about when it came to sex, and only recently figured out it was because he was literally missing that 'sexual attraction' thing.

Shadow: is nonbinary as fuck and has no idea. Honey, seeing masculinity as a burden you have to bear is not normal!!! He's also demi-ace. It takes a very close relationship with someone to even consider sexual attraction.

Cream: happy being a girl! Hasn't really thought about crushing on anyone yet.

Tails: Internalized homophobia + transphobia from being bullied go brrrrrr. Besides, Sonic doesn't spend much time thinking about these things, so why should he? (Tails. Tails listen to me. Sonic's aro and knew he was trans at an unusually young age. he's a statistical outlier with how early he figured it out PLEASE consider that and don't base your self-discovery journey on him. . .)

Metal: You all know my headcanons for this one. Metal was assigned male by Eggman from its earliest iterations and gender dysphoria is literally 98% of all of its problems. Please get this robot some estrogen. As for sexuality, full romantic attraction is definitely on the table but jesus christ this robot needs to do some work on itself before that. Please read Complex Inquiries if you want me to elaborate that's like my master's thesis on this subject

Vector: Gave his gender a really good thinking before shrugging and sticking with his assigned gender at birth. Also pan as hell, definitely dated some femboys in high school I think.

Espio: Currently in the process of speculating if he's nonbinary. Keeps very quiet about it though. But he knows he likes dudes, so there's that.

Charmy: He's bit-sexual. Whatever he needs to be for the punchline of the joke to land, frankly.

Omega: For narrative parallel reasons to Metal Sonic, I love to headcanon that Omega wasn't programmed with a gender, but then discovered that masculinity is traditionally associated with aggression and violence and went ham. Doesn't mind getting she/her'd, doesn't exactly like they/them, but it/its is of the highest offense. He will kill you for that. As for his sexuality, (I know he's a robot but PLEASE hear me out) he's demi-aro! He'd have no idea that any sort of feelings on his part are happening until it was too late. He'd hate himself for it and promptly bury said feelings beneath so many layers.

#pride month #sonic the hedgehog #I'm not tagging everybody or this tag list would be miles long #y'all know what it's about #I don't expect this post to get far off my blog anyway

I was just thinking about Russel x Winry the other day!! Kind of along the lines in a modern au of them agreeing to fake date in the hopes of getting Ed jealous (winry tried and failed multiple times to flirt, and ed does have his jealous tendencies, so the logic is that by seeming like she’s interested in a guy she knows ed Does Not Get Along With that the sort of protective jealousy would kick in, russel is totally willing especially if it means being able to hold something over ed). but then it doesn’t work. ed is a bit judgy in the sense of “really winry??? You’re into THAT guy??” but is otherwise in the “it’s her life, she can do what she wants” mindset. And then russel and winry realize that Oh, Oh no, I actually like you, what now??

Ed and ling (who are dating, up for interpretation on if Ed is gay, bi, pan, or demi) are just watching the relationship from the sidelines sipping at smoothies or something just watching russel and winry be absolute disasters trying to figure out how to date each other, not knowing that it’s fake dating that somehow ended up turning real dating.

Also, I think Al and fletcher would be cute!! Fletcher potentially thinking it’s some Romeo and Juliet level thing because their older brothers Don’t Get Along. Like, how does he tell his older brother he has a crush on his rival’s little brother?? (I am looser with my al ships than my ed ships, so like, up for debate on if it goes well for them or not? I ship al with winry, paninya, mei, and fletcher, so whatever works for whatever thought process I’m having at the current moment I guess)

But I only have vague ideas of characters from 03 and haven’t had the chance to analyze them yet past what wikis say they’re like and because it’s 03 the tringham brothers are like… NOWHERE in fma fanfic I’ve come across. I do know they’re like… a parallel of sorts to the Elric brothers with a few key differences.

AAAAAAAAAAAA YESYESYESYESYES!!

I'm so happy!! We need more Winry x Russell propaganda, they would be so cute together 😭

And YES, I can see Russell being the stupid one who said "I have an idea" thinking it would be amazing and the best idea ever. "We should have a date" he said, very proudly of himself. Winry just watches him in silence for a long time, completely confused because she doesn't understand how that correlates with Ed in the slightest. When 5 minutes have passed in silence, Russell laughs awkwardly and explains the plan, and since they both began to share a neuron since they became friends, Winry tells him "YES! YOU'RE A GENIUS!"

But maybe while all the fake dating is being planned, Ling and Ed are not together yet (I mean, of course they have a crush on the other, but neither of them has taken the first step, they are just being awkward and dumb with the other) that's why Russell and Winry think one of them have a chance. And when they are ready to start the plan, Ling asks Ed for a date, but Winry is oblivious about that.

They start to be together all the time, and when the gang (Lan Fan, Paninya, Al, Ed, Ling and Mei) want to organize something, Winry says that she already had plans with a "friend". Ed looks clearly upset because this is the fifth time she did that, and angrily asks who this guy is who can't leave her alone for a second.

"You know him, remember Russell Tringham?"

"...You're fucking with me"

A week passed and Ed is still really really angry about that "relationship" and Ling is trying to calm him down, saying Winry is his friend and he should be happy she found someone, Ling reminds him that Winry was a little upset before she started dating this guy. So Ed reluctantly agrees he is right.

One day, Ling sees them and comes up with a plan to make Ed calmer and show him that Winry will be fine. He takes his boyfriend by the arm and drags him to where the other two are.

"We should all go out together. You know, a double date!"

Ed, Russell and Winry are shocked but for different reasons.

Ed, with a frown, thinks Ling is an idiot for coming up with that idea (although there's a bit of red in his face because Ling looks so pretty smiling ajhfkwbrksjfjs).

And on the other hand, Russell and Winry are panicking because the two of them were together?! since when?! How did this happen?!

The chaos begins. Ling and Ed were so confused during the date because Winry and Russell don't feel like a real couple?? They seem so awkward with the other and every time Ed or Ling asks them something about their relationship they look at each other with panic.

Dude, I really love that idea javdjwbdnsbjfhs

OKAY I WILL STOP NOW 😭

Talking about Al, I ship him with Mei jdjsjjfka but I think he and Fletcher would be amazing bff's! And Ed doesn't have a real problem with the younger one, but his big brother????? Omg someone kill him please.

I really enjoy your ask! Thank you so much, and sorry for being late with the answer!

I’ve rewatched the scene with Bobby talking to Eddie so many times because it really reads like Bobby has some idea that what Eddie’s actually unknowingly struggling with is something in regards to his sexuality, and everything he talks about are things I had begun coming to terms with in the last two weeks as I’ve questioned my own sexuality so this conversation was really personal to me because hearing Bobby lay that out for Eddie immediately resolved my own crisis and now I’m certain I’m not bi- I’m gay (and demi). Which is a huge thing for me to realize because I’ve identified as bi ever since I started dating 8 years ago. But Eddie’s struggle and confusion makes all the sense in the world to me because I had/have the same questions as him and struggled to reconcile the clear feelings and care I had for women/femme presenting people I’ve dated, but I always felt like I was playing a part (“performing” as Eddie called it) and while I knew the lines and cues and it was easy to do, something was always missing. I felt like I was doing something ‘right’ and there was a sense of relief in that, something adjacent to happiness, but it always came up short. I would love talking with and hanging out with these partners and had been good friends prior to dating, but driving home I would wonder why I didn’t feel giddy or whole. Why I could never initiate physical contact. Why I could only objectively acknowledge that they looked beautiful, but that never translated to attraction. Why I couldn’t imagine futures together. But I liked these people. I cared about them. It was confusing. And after each inevitable break up I questioned if I just wasn’t meant for relationships.

But when Bobby validated those feelings and pointed out that Eddie doesn’t have commitment issues in general, it only seems to apply to women in his life, I thought about my relationships with men. My two longest relationships lasted 6 months and 3 years respectively, and they were with other men. My last crush was on a man. Flirting with men comes easier, I feel more loose and giddy in a surprisingly enjoyable way, I become more charismatic and at ease, I can show physical affection and compliment, and when I think about the future- road trips and grocery runs, school pick ups and drop offs, falling asleep on the couch or in the passenger seat- I see that with another man.

I think of me, and I think of Eddie. He and Shannon were friends as children and were close for years before they started dating, but only got married because she was pregnant and there was strong religious influence and social factors pressuring them. He cared about her though, he liked her, just as he cared about and liked Ana and Marisol. Those base feelings are valid, but the extent to which they manifest is dissonant for him. The idea of these relationships never matches up to the reality. It’s a performance and it’s a role he’s uncomfortable playing but has gotten used to because he didn’t know how to question it and he’s already learned the lines and blocking. He expresses he prefers being single because he can just hang out with guys because it’s less complicated, but he’s not at the point of questioning the source of that ease. He can’t commit to his girlfriend moving into his house, but he can commit to making Buck the guardian of his son in his will. He forges infinitely stronger bonds with the men in his life and we see a side of him that’s less conflicted, more at ease, more honest and silly, and freer than any time he’s with a woman.

Eddie Diaz made me realize I’m gay, so yeah, I’m pretty certain he is too.

MY AFTG pride hc of the Foxes for Pride Month:

Neil: demisexual (canon!) But also demiromantic, this boy had not felt a single romantic feeling towards anyone expect for Andrew (he definitely just says he's andrewsexual until he learns about demi). As for gender, HE IS A TRANS MAN I WILL GO DOWN WITH THIS Y'ALL CAN FIGHT ME (it just makes so much sense you can pry trans Neil out of my cold dead hands if you dare)

Andrew: gay (canon) but also greyromantic or demi romantic, I'm torn between the two but he defo didn't experience romantic feelings for anyone but Neil (i.e. the reason he thought Neil was a hallucination bc he had never felt something like that before and hoped it was because of the drugs but hahaha nope!)

Aaron: repressed bisexual, he knew from an early age that boys were cute just like girls but he heard what Luther was saying about gay people and suppressed his own feelings for y e a r s and acted out bc he never processed his sexuality for a decade (also Neil was an asshole and he didn't want his brother to date the guy he hated the most so of course he was against it, also because he realizes that Neil could hurt Andrew (re Baltimore) and that's not gonna happen, not on Aaron's watch no sir)

Kevin: bisexual (this guy is bi, he's so bi like- he's a bi man if I've ever seen one) (so bi he fails completely at trying to pass as straight, his giant crush on Jeremy was a dead give away) but he's definitely on the aro spectrum. He's definitely still figuring it out bc you know, romantic feelings weren't allowed in the Nest so he's figuring it out

Nicky: gay :3 (canon)

Dan: bi sexual but, to her huge dismay, with a preference for men (super satly when she realized this but you know she got Matt out of it so it was okay)

Matt: he's also bi, I mean just look at him. If he wasn't so in love with Dan and was able to, he would probably kiss Neil. He and Dan definitely talk about the cute people they see and point out cute people because they're comfortable in their relationship to do so, no jealousy here

Allison: a bi sexual queen! She doesn't realize it until after Seth passed however. She definitely made out with girls while drunk and just thought it was normal (sure, keep telling yourself that boo)

Renee: a fucking lesbian. Should've been canon (I saw Nora trying to force a Renee Jean thing, I saw that and I reject that)

Bonus

Jeremy: pan, gender doesn't matter at all to him, he loves all

Jean: queer, he can admit he is attracted to multiple genders but he has too much trauma to really look into it. He's also ace for sure

You know, June is a really strange time for me.

As part of pride month, it kinda makes me reflect on my own very weird journey about my own sexuality and identity. Even now, I'm not entirely sure I have it all figured out. I just kinda ended up sliding in pieces that make the most sense.

Pieces I didn't even pick up until way later than most of my peers, though I know it's not nearly as late as many others.

I literally didn't even consider my sexuality until college as part of a preparation for possibly talking to a guy about if I was interested like I suspected he was. He was and I very much was not. Literally didn't occur to me that it was odd I'd never initiated romance or had crushes before that point. I mean, I had one. In kindergarten with my then best friend because I thought he was cute and funny.

I still remember him fondly but we didn't talk after first grade lol, so that didn't go anywhere.

Then there was the introspection and research as I realized my experience wasn't normal but also was? Like, demi sexuality isn't the norm by any means, but it's hardly crazy. Some part of me was always this way, just compounded by my asocial nature in such a way it literally never came up until one dude on the verge of taking the red pill tried smoozing me for two whole months.

And I didn't realize until near the end of that time. I just liked talking to someone new. It was nice.

Bullet dodged, he was convicted with DV charges a few years after, yikes.

Then again, summer tends to be when I do the most introspection.

Had an ongoing panic attack for June and July a few years back, which was... Something.

Realized I was very likely autistic about two years ago now, like, RAD-S score of 163 kinda likely lmao (thanks for not telling me you opted to not get me tested, mom, I appreciate the sentiment but damn would I have approached certain things differently if I knew from the start my baseline wasn't the norm).

I've come a long way from the little girl on the swings who liked the boy she considered her best friend for maybe a month. The very lost but well intentioned young college student baffled by the void of interest compared to her peers. Someone more comfortable associating with an alien avatar cause my body didn't feel right in a way I couldn't explain. It's mine, I've grown in it for so long, but I hated so much of it. It took so long to appreciate what I have. To really look in the mirror and think "that's me. It's me. Despite everything... It's still me".

I'm still not sure how much I identify with feminine aspects. I feel "female" simply because that's what I've got. And I do think I'd be a bit thrown if I suddenly was physically male (dicks sound like more trouble than they're worth, honestly). I don't think I'd hate it beyond inconveniences though.

It's just so... Casual for me? Not serious? Apathetic. If you called me sir irl I'd laugh cause it's hard to not notice my tits, but I wouldn't be offended.

As for sexuality... I like the idea of romance. Of a partner. But I've never hung my hat on an ideal partner, really. Partly because for the longest time I could never imagine anyone wanting me like that. Why would they? I'm not hideous but I'm hardly worth the trouble in any aspect. Better fish out there and all that.

Just a weird little alien looking at the stars.

But I'm working on that.

Still tooling the words to describe what it's like being "me".

It's not been smooth, this journey. I've felt silly, and stupid, and unwanted. I've hated my reflection and the numbers on a scale. Wondered what I was missing that others had and let them experience all these crucial steps to growing up.

Sometimes I still do.

But I've begun to settle in my skin like I never could before. Even the ugly parts.

Pride months is a time to celebrate and reflect on the LGBTQ+

The people, the struggles, the victories.

I'm ill prepared to do an event at this time, but I hope that you all take a moment to appreciate how far into your own journeys you are. And I hope that you all find peace in your reflections and names and labels (should you use them, change them, or even come back to them after a time), no matter how different they are from the start.

The only one who can decide what you are, what kind of person you are, is yourself. You're the one who will have to wear and walk in those shoes.

And I hope you travel far in them, and see many beautiful, wonderful things.

"...It matters not how strait the gate,

How charged with punishments the scroll.

I am the master of my fate,

I am the captain of my soul."

William Ernest Henley, "Invictus", 1888

#mittens rambles #happy pride month #a little qoute of my favorite poem #the only one ive memorized like the nerd i am #that and the opening to the Canterbury Tales in roughly middle english #highschool english class was wild #idk why i still recite it to myself sometimes #feels nice but weird #ah #shit #stim #ive been stimming lmao #how did it take so long for me to figure that out #story of my life #obvious thing remains unseen for over two decades #more at 11

Hi, Maddy! I hope i'm doing this right. I was torn between two ideas, actually. But i'll stick with just one. I really enjoy your parenthood AU! So i was wondering if you could write something about Akiko getting her first partner or crush and then Shin would get brotherly protective and such. And maybe Shinobu would poke and prod at said partner/crush a bit too much because Akikos her little baby and she needs to know if this person is right for her. So I guess there would be some arguing in between..? I hope this okay! Have a great day <3

Parenthood Prt.4

Shinobu Kochou x She/ Her Reader (But it’s mostly about Akiko)

A/N: Prt3 Thank you! I hope you like how it came out. Reading this back, maybe college seems late for a first crush but you know what? Attraction hits people differently or sometimes not at all. I couldn’t decide on a sexuality/ romantic attraction for my girl, but I’m feeling some flavor of demi possibly. I don’t think even she really knows. Anyway, thanks for the request! Word Count: 4,141

Akiko handed in her last test and quietly thanked the professor. It took all of her self control not to sprint out of the lecture hall. She grabbed her bag and confidently strolled outside, her breath turning into a visible cloud in the cold. It had started snowing while she had been cooped inside for hours.

Her first semester of college was finally over. Now she would get to go home to celebrate the holidays with her parents and her brother. She could not wait to have a home cooked meal again. She wasn’t a very good cook herself, having almost set the communal kitchen on fire trying to make omurice one morning. She had been too embarrassed to set foot in there again after that.

She sent a quick text to the family group chat to share that she had finished her last test and let them know that she’d be on the first train home the next day.

Her heart warmed at the array of happy faces and heart emojis her mothers sent, then scoffed and rolled her eyes at the simple thumbs up Shin sent her.

Shinobu followed up asking her how she thought her tests went and (Y/n) asked her what she’d like for dinner tomorrow. Akiko took a moment to look around. The campus was nearly deserted this late in the evening. She decided she could walk and text at the same time to get back to her dorm as soon as possible so she could get out of the cold.

As she walked, she answered her parents seemingly never ending queries. She was reading Shinobu’s latest message when her foot slipped off of the curb and threw her off balance.

“Oh shit!”

What was strange about hissing that expletive, was that she hadn’t been the only one to utter it. As she fell, she realized she was falling into the bike lane and someone was screeching to a halt right in front of her.

They managed to plant their feet on the ground and stop mere centimeters away. Then they tilted their bike to the side, reached over their handle bars and actually caught Akiko before she hit the asphalt.

“That was close, are you okay?” They asked, looking very alert after nearly running Akiko over.

“Yeah, I’m okay.” Akiko swallowed, finding her footing again. “The only thing bruised is my ego. Thanks for catching me, and for not running me over with your bike.”

“Lucky it worked out that way. I’m usually not so coordinated… hey, wait, Kochou-san?”

Akiko looked up and she found herself wanting to dig a hole to burry herself in. This hadn’t been a simple stranger, they were one of her group partners for her lab course. Ogawa Masami.

“Yeah, that’s me unfortunately. Sorry Ogawa-san.”

“Oh no, don’t worry about it. I’m just glad you’re okay.”

Akiko could feel the blood rushing to her face with tsunami like intensity.

Masami, how to describe Masami… one of the first things Akiko noticed about them was how genuine they were. They were kind, funny, seemed to know how to talk to everyone and anyone. They were smart too, hardworking. They had really pretty eyes and strong leg muscles… not that Akiko noticed! She had never noticed or cared about such things before, so why would she do so now?

“So, all done for the semester?” Masami asked, helping Akiko back onto the sidewalk.

“Yup! You?”

“Just one more test! On my way right now.”

“Oh! I’m sorry, I got in your way! You should go, I would hate to know I sabotaged you.”

“Don’t worry, I’m actually pretty early so I’ve got time.” They smiled and rubbed the back of their neck.

“So, do you know what classes you’re taking next semester?”

“Mhm, mostly science track courses.”

“That’s right, you’re the bug girl.” Masami chuckled, sitting back on the seat of their bike.

Akiko rolled her eyes playfully and crossed her arms, “Actually, I prefer the term ‘future doctor of entomology’.”

“Alright, Dr. Bug it is.” Masami grinned when Akiko scoffed, then turned their head to the opposite side of the street to watch a person walk by with their dog. “Bugs kinda give me the heebie-jeebies, that’s why I like birds so much, but maybe we’ll be in some of the same pre-requisite classes. You’ve been an awesome person to work with.”

“You think so? I enjoyed working with you too.” Akiko fidgeted with the insides of her coat pockets. She could feel her phone buzz with another text.

Masami dug into their own coat pocket and pulled out their phone, turning it over in their hands a few times. They had wanted to ask Akiko for her number after the last day of class, but they had chickened out. Running into her now, almost literally, it had to be a sign from the universe to go for it.

“Would it be okay if I asked for your number? I’d like to text you my classes for next semester to see if we match up anywhere.”

“Sure!” Akiko wanted to bang her head against the street light posted nearby with how overly eager she had sounded.

She carefully took Masami’s phone, added her contact information, and handed it back to them.

“Your hand is freezing.” Masami commented. “Wait a second,” they dug in their opposite pocket and produced a disposable hand warmer to give to Akiko, “here.”

“That’s okay, I’m only a few more minutes away. You keep that, I’m sure it’s only going to be colder after you finish your test.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve got more in my bag. Take it.” Masami reached over and put the packet into Akiko’s pocket.

Before Akiko could dig it out and give it back, Masami kicked their bike into motion and resumed their trek to campus. They threw one of their hands up and waved, keeping their eyes on the path before them as they called out,

“Bye Kochou-san! Have a good break!”

Akiko quickly gave up trying to fish the hand warmer from her pocket. There was no way she was going to run after them on foot.

“You too! Good luck with your test, Ogawa-san!”

“Thank you!”

Akiko watched them peddle away and her phone buzzed again. She pulled it out and read through the messages and answered them accordingly without walking this time. Then she put her phone back in her pocket and set off again.

She felt the hand warmer and smiled to herself. What a great way to end the semester.

***

“My baby’s home!” (Y/n) enthusiastically, and rather embarrassingly, called as soon as Akiko stepped off of the train.

“Hi, mom.” Akiko hugged her tightly before moving to Shinobu next, “Hi, Kaasan. Where’s Shin?”

“He decided to wait at home. Too cold he said.” Shinobu shared.

“Boo.”

“Well he did have a point. Come on, it’s freezing. Give me a bag, honey.”

Akiko gave (Y/n) her duffle bag and they started walking home, catching up on the goings on at home while she had been away.

When they got home, Shin was right where she had expected him to be, nearly swallowed whole by the kotatsu while reading manga.

He glanced over to Akiko, adjusted his glasses and tipped his book in her direction.

“Welcome home.”

“Is that all I get?”

“I’m too comfy. You come over here.”

“No, you come over here.”

Shin tapped the edge of the kotatsu with the spine of his book, bringing attention to the plate on the table.

“Mitsuri-obachan brought cookies over yesterday.”

Akiko dropped her bags and slid across the floor, snatching a cookie. She took a bite and moaned. Mitsuri always made the best sweets. Akiko would kill a man for her cookies.

Shinobu came over and took the plate, but not before Akiko swiped another cookie. Shinobu batted her hand away when she attempted to grab another.

“You two will spoil your appetites.”

“Kaasan, I’m not five. I could probably eat everything in this house.”

“Are you still having a hard time cooking at school?”

“Ehhh…”

“Akiko, you can’t eat convenience store food all the time. Do you need me to give you a refresher?” (Y/n) asked.

“No, no. I’m good.”

“I think you should come help us make dinner.” Shinobu said.

“But—“

“Come on, to the kitchen.”

Akiko looked to the kotatsu longingly then stood up. She glared at Shin’s little smirk, but quickly gained one of her own when Shinobu called on him to help with dinner as well. He marked his page and got to his feet, startling Akiko.

“When did you get so tall? This isn’t right!”

“Maybe you just shrank.”

“Hey, you may be taller, but I could still have you begging for mercy.”

They playfully shoved each other as they followed their parents into the kitchen.

When dinner was made and mostly eaten, Akiko received a text from an unknown number. She opened it and smiled. It was from Masami.

Hi Kochou-san! Fingers crossed for at least one class together next semester. If we don’t we should still find time to study together or meet up sometime!

Attached was a screenshot of Masami’s schedule and Akiko scanned over it eagerly.

“What has you all lit up all of the sudden?” Shinobu asked curiously from across the table.

“Nothing.” Akiko winced internally over how quickly she spoke.

Shinobu cocked her head to the side and gave her daughter a dangerous look. One she knew well. The, I know you are hiding something from me but I’ll bide my time, look. It would be better to confess now then to have Shinobu’s watchful eyes magnified upon her.

“Well, not nothing. It’s just a friend I made in lab. They texted me their schedule for next semester to see if we have any over lapping classes.”

“That’s nice. I’m glad you’re making friends.” (Y/n) smiled warmly, but Shinobu still looked skeptical.

“They must be something special to have you smiling over a simple text like that.”

“Shinobu.” (Y/n) lightly admonished.

“What’s their name? What are they studying?” Shinobu asked, casually taking a sip from her mug, her eyes never leaving Akiko’s over the rim.

“You don’t need to interrogate her about them. Their just friends.” (Y/n) placed a hand over Shinobu’s thigh, trying to get her to drop the subject for the time being.

“They’re reasonable questions.” Shinobu defended.

“Their name is Ogawa Masami. They’re also into the sciences. I met them in my lab course. I think they want to specialize in ornithology.” Akiko answered confidently. She had nothing to hide. It wasn’t like they were dating or anything.

“Hm. That will do for now.” Shinobu decided.

That’s probably what scared Akiko most about her Kaasan. She never forgets, but she’s super covert about it. She lulls her victims into a false sense of security and then, bam! She somehow gets all the information she wants through seemingly innocuous means.

Akiko, Shin, and even (Y/n) had fallen victim to her tactics numerous times over the years. She was definitely someone who you wanted on your team, not as an adversary.

“If everyone’s done, let’s get this cleaned all cleaned up and take this party to the living room.”

The family cleaned up and piled in under the kotatsu. Shin passed around the switch controllers and a family friendly game of Mario Party commenced.

“You cunt.”

“Shinobu,” (Y/n) gasped, “the children!”

“Oh they’re practically adults. I’m sure they’ve said similar things.” Shinobu griped, glaring at the screen as Lakitu handed her hard earned star to her wife.

“Besides, I said it with love in my heart.” She added, trying not to seethe so obviously.

“You did not!”

“Why didn’t you take one from Shin? He’s winning!” Akiko was still reeling from losing a duel against her brother that took away nearly all of her coins.

“I can’t hurt my boy like that.”

“Thanks mom.”

“You’re welcome, sweetie.”

“Akiko, alliance.” Shinobu demanded.

“This is what I was saying when I wanted to work together three turns ago, but no. You just had to make it day time!”

“If I had gone the other way I wouldn’t have gotten a star!”

“And look where it is now!”

“Agh!”

Shin predictably won. Akiko managed to swipe second from (Y/n) thanks to a bonus star, and wallowing in last place was Shinobu.

As chaotic as their games were, it was exactly what Akiko had been missing. She texted Masami, letting them know they shared two classes next semester. They texted back a few minutes later, happy to hear the news. Akiko slept very well that night.

***

Over the next couple weeks, Akiko had been regularly texting with Masami. They had been getting to know each other better, sharing random bits from their day, sending quality memes, it was going very well! Akiko had just finished wishing them a Happy New Year when (Y/n) knocked on her door.

“Need any help getting ready, honey?”

“I could use some help with my obi, thanks.”

(Y/n) came in, already dressed and eager to enjoy the festivities.

“You look so pretty. Seems like just yesterday you only came up to my hip all sticky with mochi residue.”

“You say that every year.” Akiko laughed.

When she was all straightened out, they exited her room and out to the living room. Shinobu was also traditionally dressed for the occasion, but Shin was wearing regular street clothes under his heavy coat and wool hat.

“Hey! Why aren’t you wearing your kimono?” Akiko pouted.

“People don’t really wear traditional clothes for this stuff anymore. Besides, there’s snow.”

“Yeah, like a centimeter.”

Shin shrugged and Akiko huffed.

“Alright, everybody ready to head out?” Shinobu asked.

She got a round of affirmatives and then they were out the door.

Akiko loved the bustle of New Years. The warmth and tasty smells of nearby booths, the spooky trek up the hill to the shrine and cemetery… well, it would be spooky without all the people around.

She strayed from her family momentarily to buy some savory dango. She paid the man and thanked him, and upon turning around she was faced with someone she most certainly hadn’t expected to see.

“Ogawa-san?”

Masami blinked out of the spaced out waiting in line look they had and peered down at Akiko with delighted surprise.

“Kochou-san? What are the odds? And wow, you look great by the way!”

Akiko felt her face warm, suddenly very self conscious of her choice of clothing. Masami was wearing street clothes, as were most of the surrounding people near the booth.

“Thanks, it’s pretty much a family tradition, that’s all…”

“Well I mean it. You look really nice. I was looking around for one for myself but I just couldn’t find a cut and design I felt comfortable in.”

“Maybe we could try looking together sometime.” Akiko was surprised by her own casualness of her suggestion, but it seemed to go over well.

“I’d like that.”

“What’s the hold up, Onee-san?”

Shin had come up, looming over the both of them. He stood just a hair between them, looking down on Masami in particular. Akiko subtly elbowed him in his side.

“I’m talking to my friend from college.”

“Oh, the one you were talking about with Kaasan?”

No tact this boy.

“Aw, you talk about me?” Masami teased, though they looked a little pinker and not from the chill of the air.

“Yeah, all good things...” Akiko was going to beat Shin with his telescope once he fell asleep tonight.

Masami beamed, “So you’re Kochou-san’s brother?”

“Yeah. Who are you?”

Akiko elbowed him again.

“Ogawa Masami, nice to meet you.”

“Kochou Shin… nice to meet you.”

Masami turned their eyes back on Akiko, “I better keep this line moving, but I’d love to talk some more if you have time to spare.”

“Sure! We can meet at the base of the hill later.”

“Sounds good!”

When Akiko and Shin were far enough away, she hissed,

“What is your problem?”

“What?��

“You were being weird.”

“You like them. I want to see that they’re good for you.”

“I can decide that for myself thanks. You may have gotten taller than me, you might even have more relationship experience than me, but you’re still the baby of the family.”

“I just don’t want to see you get hurt.”

“If I do then you’ll be there for me like I was for your first break up. But we aren’t even dating and I don’t know if we will ever get that far so cool it.”

“Fine.” Shin snatched a dango from Akiko’s skewer and popped it into his mouth.

“Hey! Get your own!”

“I only wanted one.”

“Even a vulture would have the decency to wait until I had the first bite, jerk.”

“There you two are. What took so long?” (Y/n) asked. She and Shinobu stood from the bench they had found and met their children at the base of the hill to begin their ascent.

“That person Akiko likes is here.”

“Shin!”

“Oh are they? What a coincidence.” Shinobu smirked. “You’ll have to get us all aquatinted later. Maybe we can all go for hot pot when we’re done here.”

“Mmm hot pot.” (Y/n) and Shin hummed together.

“I don’t think they have time for that. We were just going to talk a little bit.” Akiko tried to dissuade.

“No harm in asking.” Shinobu countered.

For Akiko’s New Years wish, she prayed that her family would not embarrass her or scare Masami away.

***

Akiko smiled tensely upon descending the hill. Masami was waiting on a bench near the base and when they saw her coming they stood up and waved.

“Is that them?” (Y/n) asked. “They’re cute.”

“Mom, please.” Akiko whined quietly.

“Hello, nice to meet you. I’m Kochou Shinobu, Akiko’s mother.”

Akiko hadn’t even seen her mom pass her down the steps she was so quiet and quick. She took the steps as fast as her kimono would allow. The Gods were not on her side tonight.

“It’s very nice to meet you! Guess I’m meeting the whole Kochou family tonight.” Masami chuckled.

“Yes, we’re very tightly knit.” Which in Shinobu’s own special way meant, ‘so you better behave yourself or there will be problems.’

“Hi, Kochou (Y/n), the other mother.” (Y/n) greeted kindly.

“A pleasure.” Masami smiled.

“Do you have any plans? We were all just going to see about warming up with some hot pot and you’re welcome to join us.” Shinobu invited before Akiko could try to command the line of conversation.

“I wouldn’t want to impose.”

“You wouldn’t at all. We’d be happy to treat you.” Shinobu assured with an almost wicked grin. “I’d love to hear more about that lab course you and Akiko took.”

“If you really don’t mind, I’d be honored to be included.”

“Wonderful!”

Akiko could feel herself sweating despite the frigid temperatures and it only got worse when they found a crowded restaurant to eat in. It was hot and loud, but maybe that would make it harder for Shinobu to work her usual tactics.

Akiko missed her opportunity to sit next to Masami when Shinobu and (Y/n) filled in the booth beside them and she almost missed out on sitting across from them because of Shin, but she managed to shove him out of the way long enough to slip in before him.

“Were you out celebrating with anyone earlier? I just realized I forgot to ask. I’d hate to hear we abducted you from any prior engagements.” Shinobu spoke with convincing contriteness.

“Nope, I’m totally free. I was hanging out with some friends earlier, but we hadn’t planned to be out all night. Most of them are probably home by now, but I like the ambiance so I decided to stay out longer.”

“Me too. The streets are usually so sad and empty when it’s winter, but everything really comes alive again on New Years.” Akiko agreed.

“So how’s school? Akiko says you’re interested in Ornithology?” (Y/n) prompted, for which Akiko was at least mildly grateful. She could at least trust that her mom’s interest was genuine and not a ploy to search for anything deeper.

“Mhm. I haven’t fully committed yet because I’m stuck between that and marine biology. It’s hard to choose between having a raptor on your arm or swimming with whales.”

“That is quite the decision to make. Shinobu also loves the ocean, don’t you dear?”

“Yes, I do enjoy the ocean.” Shinobu replied, warmed by the way her wife’s face lit up at the connection. “Though I much prefer the tide pools to the open water.”

“Tide pools are so cool!” Masami agreed. “One time when I was little my dad and I even found an octopus.”

“That sounds like quite the find.” Shinobu said, intrigued.

Yes mom! Force Kaasan to acknowledge Whatever similarities you can find! Akiko internally cheered. If Shinobu and Shin could stop seeing Masami as a possible threat to her happiness and as an actual person instead, that would help a lot.

The hot pot of deliciously stewed ingredients was sat before them and everyone dug in. They still conversed between bites and sips, but Akiko felt like the atmospheres around her mother and brother were more relaxed or at least not as on guard as they had been.

When the food was eaten and there was a lull in the conversation, Masami checked the time.

“Wow, it’s getting late. I should be getting to the train station. Thank you all so much for this, I had a really nice time.”

“Likewise, thank you for humoring us.” Shinobu nodded, following (Y/n) out of the booth.

They exited the restaurant and said their goodbyes. While (Y/n), Shinobu and Shin began walking in the direction of home, Akiko slunk off to accompany Masami for the short walk to the train station. She’d probably get teased or scolded when she rejoined them, but she had to make sure her and Masami were still good.

“Your parents are very nice.” Masami said, burying their hands in their pockets.

“They’re alright.” Akiko shrugged. “Did you really have a good time or…”

“Oh yeah! I really did, it was nice.” They smiled softly, “To tell you the truth, I was kind of bummed out. My dad had to leave for a business trip overseas a few days ago so it’s just been me holding down the fort. It was nice to get to celebrate the New Year like this rather than sitting at home eating ten oranges by myself while watching tv.”

“If you’re ever feeling lonely, text me.” Akiko offered. “I’ll text you my address and you can come play Mario party with Shin and I.”

“Now that sounds like a fun time.”

“Only if you promise to form an alliance with me because he never loses unless everyone works against him.”

Masami laughed and held out their hand, “It’s a deal.”

Akiko mirrored the grin and shook their hand.

“Kochou-san, your hands are cold again.” Masami tisked teasingly. They dug in their pocket and took out another disposable hand warmer and handed it to her as the train rolled into the station.

“Thanks.” Akiko smiled and took the offering.

“You’re welcome,” they stepped up into the train, “text me when you get home.”

“Right back at you.”

“You got it.” Masami nodded and stepped fully inside the train car.

Akiko waved at the train window Masami appeared through and when the train departed she held the hand warmer to her chest and sighed pleasantly.

“They’re very nice, Shinobu.”

“Yes, but I’m still going to keep an eye on them.”

“Can we go home now? I’m freezing.”

“Did you guys really follow me?!” Akiko yelled, turning to see her family waiting nearby.

“It’s late, we aren’t going to let you wander around alone at two in the morning on New Years.” Shinobu reasoned. “Who knows what weirdos are out and about.”

“She has a point.” (Y/n) agreed.

“Fine, fine! The only weirdos out here are you three! Let’s go home already.” Akiko shook her head in disbelief and shoved at her parents backs in the direction of home. All the while she lectured them about personal space and eavesdropping.

When they got home, Akiko said good night to Shin and her parents and closed herself into her room. She wiggled out of her kimono and changed into more comfortable pajamas. Then she rocketed into her bed and turned on her phone to let Masami know that she had made it home safely and about twenty minutes later she received a text stating the same in return and wishing her sweet dreams.

Akiko placed her phone beside the two hand warmers on her bedside table and silently squealed into her pillow.

I live in a more conservative area in the US. My family isn't, but whatever. Being LGBT was looked down upon in this area, my parents made sure to tell me it was ok and people were close minded (hell they even left the church they went to and started their own). They were great parents.

That being said the surrounding area was not. Got bullied in school for being gay, even though I simply was just focused on academics. I wanted an A more than I wanted the D am I right? Hm. It frustrated me because no one even asked and I was straight. This went on from when I was 10 to 17, when I finally graduated and got out of that area. The bullying was intense, from something as simple as name calling to having group projects turned in without my name but slurs on it to getting physically pushed around and shoved.

I went to college and met some cool people. Went to a pride parade as an ally. Started learning about different labels. Proclaimed to be demisexual with a desire for men because I still didn't really have any sexual desire and again, focused on school.

When I was 21 I moved to an entire new area for my job. Met a girl in her 30s who has a kid (12 or 13 at the time I dont remember) who came out as nonbinary and pan. Good for them! The woman was an "ally" except-

Tried forcing me to come out. Many times. Put me in secret uncomfortable situations. Some highlights of things she did were: take me to a gay bar without telling me thats where we were and then paying someone to kiss me and then kept asking if I realized I was gay because I didn't push the person away (I was shocked), after I claimed I was demisexual claimed that I had repressed my sexuality because society inherently tells you to be straight and that I was truly a lesbian, would claim I was a virgin if I never slept with a man because a woman couldn't take that so if i had "religious trauma" and wouldn't sleep with anyone based on keeping virginity i could with a woman and be fine (which I dont have any, my parents formed that church and were all inclusive and its a safe space hell they even organized pride events before the town did), and the worst of all got me drunker then I've ever been to the point I could barely stand and left me with a guy who had a crush on me who kept coming onto me. She talked to him and I saw her wink at him and she left me with this dude who got too handsy if you know what I mean. Nothing under the clothes happened thank God, and really it was my own fault for drinking so much at her place *she had many people over, I actually drank less then other people but still*. I asked why she left me with him and she said she was tired, then later said she wasn't surprised he tried anything and then said "well you're definitely gonna be gay now and not want to be with a man".

I left that area behind as my career progressed and it hit me, damn she was kinda fucked up. Kissed a few people and realized hold on I do have a sexual drive hello, and I dont have to get to know people first to have it?? Not demi then. Cool! Realised that the woman kinda fucked me up. I'm doing therapy which...is ok. But I got on Tumblr and have been on

And I've met some cool people. I've realized huh I guess a straight person doesn't think about boobs and vaginas while they get off. The dicks made sense, but the rest? And it hit me Holy shit im bi?? I think??

In my mind, being LGBT was okay but ME oh no suddenly it was the worst thing in the world. And im realizing its okay for me. Idk why I thought it wasn't except for the intense bullying. One thing that made me realize was everyone on tumblr. Like I said I met some cool people. I havent sent everyone a message because I want to be anonymous still. But you're one of the people who have helped me realize its ok. It is okay for me! So thank you for that. One of your fics really helped when I was first struggling with the realization and...thank you. It may not seem like a big thing to you, but its changed my life.

Thank you so much for sending me this. Like actually truly.

First of all, I’m so sorry for the situation with your ex friend. I can’t stand when people need to push and push to get the reaction THEY want, it sickens me deeply. Im sorry you went through that and I’m so happy you’re in therapy and that you’ve discovered yourself now.

It actually IS big to me when I hear about bisexual people accepting themselves. I don’t talk about it here much but I too grew up in a conservative area. I dropped out of school for bullying, etc but had the opposite story of knowing I was bisexual very young and not knowing how to word it? I just knew it was “bad” and I went to church a lot and I needed to repent for it. So I get that part in a warped way.

I think it gets to me for a very personal reason. There’s this inherent shake when you’ve been made to feel bad about your sexuality that resurfaces at random. I had an ex boyfriend who was obsessed with my sexuality in the opposite way. He was abusive and thought I was cheating constantly with my best friend, would call me a d*ke and a f*g constantly (almost always before some sort of physical abuse) and I was just deeply ashamed of my self, to the point of being biphobic at points.

What I’m getting at here is I came out after we broke up and I expected it to be this dawn of time shit because my family is accepting too! And I remember my mom getting upset and going, “Are you sure this isn’t about your breakup? Are you okay?” And I kind of just wanted to fucking scream. Or the way family members treat it like I’m divulging some sort of sexual secret. My sister coming out as bi years later really helped me. Dating someone who both did not care and didn’t want to sexualize me made it better.

In between all that, I ended up dating a girl who I could tell from the get go doesn’t see me (still now as friends) as “gay enough”. None of my struggle or my problems are the same, none of my fears are warranted, etc. that’s fine. I don’t need suffering to know who I am. What I’m trying to get at is even after years there are still tiny things that eat away at me but I’ve learned coping skills and developed friendships that make me feel so much better. And hearing stories from other people helps so much too. So thank you for telling me yours, it means a lot to me. I know you weren’t asking for a wordy response but I just woke up and I’m a sensitive bitch 😂

I’m sorry for the things you’ve gone through and I wish the world had been kinder to a young you. I’m glad you’re better now and if you ever need to message someone (if you ever choose to not be anon) I’m around ☺️💕

I still want to hear your sexuality hc about your fav characters like an idiot

Types up small essay:

(I included some gender hcs too, since there's a lot of gender HCs that are very important to me.)

I've already mentioned some of these, but it pains me to make an incomplete list. Also, it's divided by fandom. (for fandoms you aren't in, disregard!)

These are only the ones I'm very attached to and cannot imagine the character without. No worries if you are squicked by or disagree with any of em!

One Piece:

Luffy: Canonically asexual, but I hc him specifically as sex positive. He doesn't really get the point, but would fuck you if you asked. Also NB. Man does not understand the hype around gender in the slightest.

Nami: Sex NEGATIVE asexual, and will only use sex appeal to steal your wallet.

Franky: Trans dude. If he can make himself a robot body, he can make himself a robot dick. Also he's Bi. He never mentions any of this, and is surprised that his crewmates didn't already know.

Zoro: Has legit never thought about it. He has no fucking clue what his sexuality is. He just does what he wants in the moment.

Sanji: There's a solid arguement to be made in canon that my dude is not Cis. (There's simping, and then there's getting euphoria for being in the body of your hot female friend.) I personally HC him as bigender. Also, no way is he actually into ladies.

Homestuck:

Vriska: Trans woman, transitioned super young. Will fight you if you misgender her.

Karkat: Not being able to feel certain quadrants places him on the Troll aromantic spectrum. Troll sexuality is different and my HCs should reflect that!

John: Bi, and doesn't understand that Bi isn't the default. Everyone finds their male friends attractive, that doesn't mean they want to date them! (he is wrong.)

Aradia: Lesbian in red and pitch quadrants.

Roxy: Pan, and uses she/her + Neopronouns (I'd think it/its and nya/nyas fit her vibe.)

Jade: Queer, and very open about having a crush on everyone in her friend group at one point.

The Owl House:

Willow: Trans woman. Her intro episode has so much trans subtext, what can I say!

No South Park Headcanons I'm really attached to, but practically everything but Transfem!Butters has canon backing at this point.

I actually don't headcanon Mr. Kitty as intersex because Ms. Cartman totally replaces Mr. Kitty whenever something bad happens, and that explains the inconsistencies.

Total Drama:

Bi Owen is arguably canon, if played for laughs. (I know the shows old, but yikes!)

But have you considered... closeted Bi Heather? Gives me peak "get out of my school vibes" with Gwen.

Julia seems the type to pretend to be gay on the internet for clout, then realize she actually is gay. She's horrible like that.

I know Wayne is canonically the best Ally, but Harold knows more about LGBTQ+ history than everyone else put together and will happily talk about it when asked. He has helped at least 3 people figure out the name for their sexuality.

I saw someone posting about Aroace DJ, and it has not left my brain since.

Bi Zoey! She's not open about it, due to not wanting to be the only openly queer person in her small town.

Scott is gay, but he also knows very little about sexuality. It takes him embarrassingly long to figure it out.

Jasmine is questioning her sexuality, and Sammy (I will not call her Samey, I refuse.) was her first known crush on a girl. Still love her and Shawn though.

He/they Shawn. Based off vibes.

Priya gives me "me before I realized I was into girls" vibes. I don't make the rules.

Ace Attorney:

Bi Gumshoe. If he's straight, why does he act the exact same around Edgeworth than he does his CANON crush.

Aroace Athena. I cannot imagine her having romantic feelings for anyone, I'm sorry. (Junie had a crush on her at one point though, and she was flattered.)

NB Apollo. His relationship with gender (makes contented buzzing noise!)

Demi Edgeworth: Cannot have a crush on someone without knowing them for 5 years first.

Transmasc. Maya, because gender roles in her village is pretty key to her arc, and that'd be a cool way of exploring that.

I know Bi Phoenix is the prevalent headcanon, but I am a Gay Phoenix enjoyer. His fling with Dahlia reads as Comphet to me.

Danganronpa:

Gonta's relationship with gender in canon is so ??? no way is he cis. I'm giving him the Genderqueer label, but Cisn't. I don't think he's quite figured it out though.

If I am despised for liking Bi Tenko, so be it. It makes sense with what we see of her backstory, and no way am I allowing my fave to be a stereotype.

I am a trans Chihiro enjoyer, but fuck you if you think the people that want to use Chihiro's canon pronouns are transphobic. The whole thing is stupid, and people should be able to have fun with the character without discourse

Very Openly gay, All Pronouns (including Neopronouns!) Ibuki. They lead the GSA at Hope's Peak. Ate a gender for breakfast once.

Demi Taka. Also Demi Mukuro.

Aroace Togami. Man only has an interest in sex because its expected of him, and does not enjoy when someone is sexually attracted to him.

Aroace Makoto with a million QPPs. It doesn't make sense with canon, but it is one of my favorite headcanons.

Bi Toko.

Poly Kaede.
