April Travel Paintings aka Borahaegas~~ ✨💜🧡 w/ my sister and her husband woohooo~!! 🥰💙💖 We went to the Day 3 concert and other activities related to BTS~ It felt like a BTS festival and I was a little overwhelmed by everything because I only knew a few general things about them at the time, and it was one of the best experiences I've had in 2022. Probably the best live concert experience I've had in my life currently too~ 🕺✨🎶 This took me way longer to finish than I expected (wasn't expecting months to finish this oops) , but then again this is pretty detailed haha I'm amazed I finished the paintings before 2022 ended for me XD I had so much fun working on these ~ 🥺💙 Also this isn't a watercolor sketchbook, I just wanna put all my travel related drawings in one sketchbook... so that could be why it took longer too? XD;

I hope you enjoy looking through all this~ uwu 💕

( I'll put some details of the trip and of the paintings/drawings in a read more so this isn't hopefully too long for everyone haha 😅)

The first three pages were done during the trip, while the rest were done throughout a couple of months? Some road trip landscapes and bt21 and attempts to paint while in a car heading back home haha I had an accident with over-flooding my pink posca and that was before the concert lol oops sorry Cooky ( also the gray, but that wasn't as bad as the pink ) thankfully none of it got on anyone, but I did have to clean up the bed weh ;o; It was super windy heading back on Saturday ( my sister and her husband had to head back to help out with wedding stuff for friends ) and it was too hard to paint in a shaking car. I thought we were gonna fly off the road and tumble into the desert haha.

For the 3 1/2 page , I wanted to paint one more road trip landscape and also the Seven Magic Mountains. I only painted one of seven in my last Vegas related trip paintings so I wanted to try painting all of them this time. I haven't actually gotten up close to them yet only seen them while on the road, maybe the next trip to Vegas? haha

The rest of the paintings are a summary of the trip heheh~

Café in the City was very tasty, finally had tteokbokki after craving it for a while, mmm jajangmyeon, and I inhaled that bungeoppang even though I was pretty full :d The drinks were also very good~

The Pop-Up exhibit had lots of photo taking opportunities, I really enjoyed seeing all the music video inspired built sets 🤩 The food and drinks we got after the pop-up were really nice. I decided to put a space background for the My Universe Brownie 🌌

Behind the Stage exhibit was super wonderful, all the behind the scene photos of their practicing to rehearsals to concerts was really cool. Also I accidentally touched one of the photos and I was scared we would get kicked out haha :'0 I also liked the stage playing music videos afterwards and liked the design of the vodka can we got while resting so I painted that too 😆

Bacchanal Buffet was tasty too, though I think I got full much faster than expected and didn't get to try as much food Then we went to the Bellagio Fountains to see if they'll play a BTS song... but they didn't when we went there lol 😂 Then the day of the concert we went to a mall for a pop-up shop and you could write notes to BTS and put them on a wall, it was very cute 💜

Concert time wooo~!! 🎶🧡✨💜 My sister is the one with the Cooky headband, I'm the one in the bucket hat haha. The energy of BTS and ARMY in the concert was super infectious, I had so much fun and that energy was still pulsing in me for a couple of days 🤩 I tried to fit a visual for every song they performed, some were a little easier than others haha If I missed any song, I'm sorry I didn't mean to ;o; I wished I practiced all the fanchants :'D I also wished I had added some other things that happened in the concert, but I wanted to keep it contained in one spread c':

Just ahh... what a super wonderful time overall. ✨🥰 Thanks a bunch to my sister and her husband for inviting me to come along, you're both the best and I love you lots and seeing my sister's happiness about all this was irresistible and made me happy too. Also ARMYs were super kind and nice and gave cute freebies and it was sweet haha ;w; Much love to BTS for bringing so much joy and brightness to my sister and to many others. I already thought positively about them for helping her when she needed it last year, and I'm now so endeared with them and deep dove into their discography and videos and things and they have brought a lot of positivity this year for me haha 🥺💜

hey tumblr-ers that currently follow me ermm sorry I've been dead for like (over) a week I've been stupidly busy and haven't gotten time to draw in a bit, I'll get to it sometime I promise haha

for those wondering what I plan to do soon regarding doodle projects I'll put some details below cut, just letting you guys know I'm alive

so I've been going absolutely nuts guys

I'm not going to say I've been going through artblock AND being stupidly busy, but at least I've been stupidly busy!! I've been buzzing with very specific hyperfixated ideas in the noggin and it's hard to stick to a prompt let alone a prompt I don't know would work with how I picture the lil characters I use as sock puppets for my lesbian-ness

OKAY, on the agenda I PLAN to try drawing a select few of the ask ideas in my inbox, so I'm really sorry if I don't do yours!!

next I have these little ideas for unsurprisingly an au featuring the tadc cast,,, but I've been stuck in character design hell after coming up with everything else- like trying to redesign but also keep everyone recognizable is harder than you'd think??

ITS UNIQUE THOUGH,,, I'll say that

AFTER I get the asks and my dumb little ideas out onto tumblr for everyone to judge me, I'll probably have come up with a better plan! so until then, I'm going to crawl back into my little hobbit hole and draw up some lesbians for you faceless critters in my walls /pos

#frosty thoughts #gonna try tagging all the ramble posts i make #including asks!! #makes them easier to find yk

Mineko Old Art Dump, Cont.

Part 2 of 2 :

Now, time for info!

So, for starters: her name. As mentioned multiple times by now, her name is Asano Mineko, as in 峯子. Whereas Karma gets his kanji from their mother (my OC Kuniko) and Gakushuu gets his partially from their father, Mineko gets the remaining two from both. I was trying to see if there was a similar “updated” thing with Gakuhou’s second kanji (like how 学 is derived from 學), but that doesn’t seem to be the case from what I could find. So even though I don’t need to explain why they did that for Gakushuu and Mineko, I came up with one anyway: it’s a trade-off. Gakushuu keeps the reading over the exact kanji, and Mineko keeps the exact kanji over the reading (Mineko was always the plan, though; not fond of “Houko”, especially for her).

I also mentioned this before, but since I’m dumping quite a bit of info about her here, I’ll mention it once more: Mineko’s the middle child, with her birthday being January 1st, just like her younger brother. In these AUs, Karma could be born on the same day, or he could still be born on Christmas—both ways are possible, though I have a slighter preference for the former for some reason.

Before I get into her personality a little, lemme explain some of the drawings. Only some things. The rest will definitely be mentioned in a character sheet—or before: if I happen to draw it again before it gets done, I’ll probably talk about it at least a bit. Let’s go in order now, shall we?

So, um, height? Mineko’s tall, but idk, I feel like I made her too tall in that Until Dawn AU sketch (she’s not in the AU officially, but I do think about her in it from time to time. And jeez, I need to post about that AU some more…). Either that, or I made Rio too short. Like, idk, year 3 Mineko is 5’6” (167 cm), and she’ll be 5’8” (172 cm) at her tallest.

Second: er, you know that sketch that looks like she’s holding a large ice cream cone in a weird way? Uh, yeah, that’s supposed to be a telescope ^^;;; I just never got around to adding the tripod… or, like, referencing an actual telescope instead of from memory, oops. I might actually turn that into a proper post, but no plans as of the moment. But yeah, anyway: Mineko loves astronomy, and one of her favorite hobbies is star-gazing.

Another one of her favorites that I feel like mentioning now, too, is she loves listening to and composing music—mainly instrumentals/orchestral music. She’s the kinda girl you’d invite to an opera, haha (though, not romantically; she’s aroace. The main reason why this is is because I did not want to end up making an OC to pair with her (this has happened multiple times before with others, so this is a way of me putting my foot down with her, haha). That, and it kinda references the fact that at some point in time I headcanoned Karma and Gakushuu as aroace. Though, I still do personally see them being somewhere on the spectrum. But yeah, she aroace).

Then that one sketch where the art style’s very different from the rest—I’m actually not too fond of it anymore, especially the face, but I thought to include because I like the rest of the sketch and especially because—you know that art style I dub my doodle style? The one where the nose connects to the upper lip, and if the mouth’s open, I add a bottom lip? The one I introduced Mineko in? Yeah, fun fact: this sketch was the start of that art style. It’s changed a lot since, but perhaps I wouldn’t have drawn in it were it not for Mineko, haha.

Last thing before I get to her personality and stuff: I’ll mention something about the traditional sketches. Idk if you can tell, but Mineko is a huge junk-foodie—a sucker for fast food. She still keeps track of healthy food, for the most part—but yeah, she’d never turn down fast food, haha. Also, regarding the water: she’s more likely to casually see food in a “romantic light” than she ever is people, haha.

Speaking of, I headcanon both Karma and Gakushuu as good cooks—they can whip up something decent, at least, haha. Mineko on the other hand has no such interest. She’s got her brothers, after all. She doesn’t see a reason to… until she grows up, and her brothers are living their lives, and she realizes she’s got no one to cook for her anymore… Welp, fast food and restaurants have never left her down before, haha.

Ok, now I’ll finally discuss her personality a bit… well, traits? I wanna talk about her intelligence first. She’s a very smart girl, being in 3-A, but she’s not as smart as her brothers and has to try harder to somewhat be on the same level grade-wise—definitely not touching the virtuosos, but 3-A all the same. She also participates in extracurriculars but not nearly as many as Gakushuu—she can only handle so much.

But while she knows she may not have as high an IQ as her brothers, she very much believes she has a higher EQ than them. And to her credit, she does, but probably not by nearly as much as she thinks. See, she’s emotionally repressed, too—don’t let that smile fool you, haha.

For one, she doesn’t like conflict and does her best to smooth things over when/if she can, play the middle man (she likes to think of herself as a bridge, connecting two conflicting sides (especially her brothers; she also likes to say that’s the reason why she’s shorter than them, as (certain types of) bridges tend to dip below the two points they’re connecting, haha. Just a silly thought she likes to muse)). She likes fixing conflicts but would never intentionally start any. Cautious of stepping on toes.

That’s always why she tries her best to plaster on a smile regardless of how she feels—everything’s fine, don’t you know? She’s completely happy with her circumstances; don’t ever worry otherwise! She should be more worried about you than you about her! But yeah, she’ll either only let it slip should a situation get too stressful that she can’t keep it up or if she believes she’s all by herself. All that said, she’s usually fine. Usually. It’s just… when she isn’t…

Also, this girlie’s got major trust issues and is a misanthrope (Gakuhou’s her dad; enough said). She does believe that, of course, not all of humanity is bad. It’s just… she doesn’t trust individuals, especially the more friendly seeming ones. She’s been raised in a family of masks, adorning one herself, so she has no clue whether someone is being genuinely kind or not. It’s just easier for her not to trust them rather than be let down. Everyone’s got hidden agendas, it seems.

And while she’s friendly and polite to everyone regardless of her suspicions—even when there’s blatant evidence she’s right. Because she wants to be kind and helpful regardless. And again, she kinda believes most are like that anyway. Proof is just more of a confirmation of something she believes already—and while most would find her company agreeable, she currently doesn’t have any friends outside her brothers. And nor does she care to. She doesn’t see what she’s missing. Why would you hang out with someone who’s potentially fake? While helpful, she tries to make herself scarce whenever she can.

But yeah, the only way she’ll ever make friends is through a whole lot of interaction; she needs to be able to build up that trust and feel safe. Being close to her brothers is a good start, but she’ll still be wary for a good while. Not something easy, essentially, and could take years. Hence, no friends as of the moment.

Er, yeah, I guess that’ll be all I’ll share for the moment. Ended up being a lot longer than I thought, but I don’t feel like cutting anything either. So yeah; here is she! I adore her, so I hope you like her, too, or find her interesting at least ^^

I feel like you know about her more than the other OCs I’ve already revealed when they’ve been out for a couple years now. Oops ^^;;

Tkkg doodles, partly inspired bc @dakrisart infected me with Karl/Willi brainrot as well as some other stuff lying around

KKG but they finally get weapons and slay the kids are heavily traumatised

Kleiner rant folgt

Immer so ein komischer move von Stefan Wolf, love interests für Karl und Willi die er einmalig in den Büchern introduced immer das gleiche Aussehen zu geben wie sie selbst (zumindest wenn die Sympathie erwidert wird)? Natürlich, Menschen mit Brille können nur Menschen mit Brille und dicke Menschen nur dicke Menschen daten so ist das haha

But it gives me an excuse to adopt them as oc and make them gay 😎

Here's Mathilde aus Stunde der schwarzen Maske, Sonja droppt im nächsten Post

#tkkg #“oc” #not really #karl #willi #gaby #do tkkg have religous familys? #sie wohnen schließlich presumably in bayern lol #also tkkg selbst ja canon nicht #aber ich kann mir bei eingen Elternteilen schon vorstellen so casual #for the angst tehehe 😈 #new art tag

Zhongli x Childe

Café au fluff one-shot (1970 words)

♥------------------------------------------------♥

♥------------------------------------------------♥

" Hey there Zhongli !! how are you doing today ? i hope im not too early for class" greeted Ganyu

"Im doing doing just fine and no you are right on time" Zhongli replied with a kind smile.

Ganyu, a busy med college student, very sleepy but extremely hardworking.

"Come driving rain or winds that churn, I shall return, by blade alone, armed, if barefoot, to my home.. good evening Mr. Zhongli" Kazuha said with a polite smile as he took his seat on the counter of the empty cafe.

"Good evening Kazuha , you are as poetic as always"

Kazuha, a middle school student with a way with words.

"Arataki "Numero Uno" Itto, here in the flesh! Hahaha... *cough*"

"Good evening itto .. er are you alright ?" Zhongli asked with a concerned smile

"Yeah im chill gramps"

"well thats good to hear" Itto took his seat besides Kazuha and started chatting away about beetles because "They're so cool little dude you have no idea"

Arataki Itto , an animal enthusiast and Earth science major, hes very excited most of the time.

"Good evening Zhongli !! Ei is finally free from mid terms so she's able to join us today!" Miko, freshly graduated, works in a publishing house.

"Hello." Ei or Raiden , she's in her last year of college doing business studies.

"Greetings Miko , Ei , im glad you could join us today !

We'll be making Bento cakes. They are the size of a bento(lunch box) but the rest is exactly the same as a normal cake."

All the "students" were standing at their own stations, which were just the cafe tables put together. They had a small notebook and pen in their hands ready to write down what notes Mr. Zhongli aka their teacher gave. A few actually wrote notes while some doodled "Beetle shaped icing supremacy"

Zhongli is a college graduate from Liyue College of Teyvat. He graduated in Business studies and culinary arts . Wanting to become a chef from an early age he had a clear dream in mind and was currently living it by owning a small yet popular cafe called Cafe Rax (named after his pet cat morax). He owned a few other places aswell but spent most his time here. He often gave lectures at LCT , being an alumni there.

baking lessons after the cafe closed was an impulsive decision but a good one since he found many friends. All the people came for different reasons.

Ganyu : "I feel like im too involved in work and i wanted a new hobby!"

Kazuha : he works at the cafe as a part timer "so why not, i wish to see where this path leads me"

Itto : "im gonna bake delicious stuff for granny, she's done so much for me !"

Miko : "itll be good seeing you everyday my friend , plus me and Ei can bake together"

Raiden : "for Miko"

The strength on the so called baking class was small but they were a happy lot.

"Firstly i want you all to tie your aprons and wash your hands"

Everyone in class had an apron of their choice , all of them had specific designs sewed onto them , Zhongli's had a small whale , Ittos had a little brown dog , Kazuha's had a purple and white electro sign , Ei's had a pink fox and Miko's had dango.

"Okay people now take out the following ingredients

2 eggs

1 egg yolk

Dark muscovado sugar 60g

Maple syrup 15g (1.5 tbsp)

1/2 tsp salt

All-purpose flour 50g

Dark cocoa powder 10g (1.5 tbsp)

("Thats sugar itto not salt"

"Pffftttt ofc i knew that haha-")

__________________________________________________________________________

He ran with a smile on his face and cheeky but slightly vacant eyes as water splashed around his feet and all of his clothing became drenched. If he didn't quickly find shelter, all of his books would be a tangled mess of soggy pages. In the distance, he could make out Cafe Rax. He debated whether or not to enter the coffee shop because there was a particular person there who gave him feelings he had never experienced before. He was motivated to genuinely live, to get up, and to improve by the person inside. If only the person was aware of him, things might progress if they did.

. . . . . . Okay maybe that was a little dramatic, they were best of friends but Mr. Ginger went ahead and fell in love .

Tartaglia had known Zhongli for at least four years, first as a senior in college, then as an alumnus delivering speeches, and last as a friend and his own personal barista who provided him biased discounts that no one had the courage to point out.

The bell jingled loudly, signalling the entry of a person into the cafe. Tartaglia came here every day at the same hour, so no one needed to turn their heads to see who it was. Zhongli looked up from where he was removing his mittens to see his best friend, whom he secretly adored staring at. Wet, vivid orange hair clung to his forehead, blue eyes flashing brightly, and a broad smile with all teeth and heated cheeks. Seeing his best friend in this state made Zhongli's heart race. He grabbed a towel and ran over to the ginger, grumbling about how he'll get sick if he continues forgetting his umbrella . "You should be more careful Childe , how many times have i advised you to carry a raincoat or an umbrella-"

He stopped abruptly when a hand came up to his face and a dainty finger grazed his cheek. His cheeks flushed at the contact, he barely managed to keep his composure .

"You had flour on your cheek" said Childe

Childe brushed his thumb again on the brunettes cheek , his touch was feather light .

It was flawless. Zhongli had a whale apron on, while Childe had a towel over his head and messy hair, all raw and domestic. Zhongli's eyes followed the tiny water droplets trickling down the ginger's face as they exchanged glances.

Zhongli extended his hand to touch Childes. He then closed his eyes and relaxed, savouring the sensation of his best friend's palm brushing across his cheek. Childe admired and loved him with all of his heart, hoping Zhongli could see how his eyes shone at the thought of the other man. The rest of the room was silent until Itto's cough shattered the tension

(his face was red from holding in the cough "dude." "sorry little guy i tried my best" "drink some water")

When the trance was broken, Zhongli returned to work with a flushed face, and Childe started doing his assignments as usual on Zhongli's desk. Both of them were focused elsewhere.

How could they focus on work when that just happened. Childe was getting tired of this 'routine'. He really wished for Zhongli to see him in a different light. Not as a friend but something more. He wanted to mean to Zhongli what Zhongli meant to him. He wanted to watch the sunset with him , hold hands , kiss him and be his forever and ever .

He distracted himself with algebra and soon enough his thoughts were lost in numbers and variables . He was so laser focused on his work that he didn't hear several ovens and the rustling of people walking out the door with the jingle of the bell.

("Cya little dude , now imma let granny taste this !!" "farewell for now my friend , i wonder how scara will like this" "Lets have a movie date ei" "of course")

Zhongli cleaned up the counter thoroughly. He collected all the bowls and other utensils used and kept them under the sink , then putting away all the extra ingredient back to their places.

He took out the freshly baked bento cake and started icing it. He had a variety of colours from which he chose blue , orange and little bit of red. He somehow managed to draw a chibi childe. He was happy with his creation. But he was also nervous because today was the day he was going to do it . Risk it all . Confess.

Zhongli had thought of the most extravagant ways to confess to childe but then he settled for the most familiar and meaningful way to do it. By baking. the cake had both his love for baking and for his dearest childe. He gazed at the ginger sitting at a desk , scratching his pencil on paper , eyes narrowed in concentration as her did his work. He couldnt be more proud , remembering the struggle the other had went through to reach this level of calm. The leg shaking had lessned and the focus had increased , his eyes were just a smidge brighter . Knowing he played a small role in the happening of that was just elating .

He grabbed the bento and softly kept it on the gingers desk which made him look up. He noticed?the cafe to be empty and all cleaned up.

"Sorry for intruding !! i should get going Zhongli"

"Its alright , i have to talk to you. Have this first , its- uh i made it for you"

(aww man he even looks professional while stuttering thought childe dreamily)

"For me?? im flattered , truly. If i may , what is the reason for such a mmmm delicious present?"(from a delicious man like yourself )

Zhongli took a deep breath as he took Childes hands in his, he could feel the roughness of his fingers , the warmth of them. He was feeling a different sense of calm. He was relaxed as he looked into his best friends eyes and dared to say the words harboured in his heart.

"Tartaglia, my darling I'm grateful for every minute you've spent with me. I'm always afraid that I won't be able to repay you. I adore you more with each passing year that we remain friends. I've never felt such intense feelings for someone before you. You came into my life and lighted it up. Your ocean blue eyes and beautiful hair never cease to amaze and entice me. I love you. With my entire heart. I would like to court you if you allow me to , beautiful. "

Zhongli looked up from where he had his eyes fixed on their conjoined hands. Blue eyes shone with unshed tears. He panicked for a second before relaxing at the sight of a smile making its way up to Childes face. There was a lot of crying as the younger shoved his face into Zhonglis chest and held onto him like he would never let go. Childe was just so happy to have his feelings returned.

After crying and blabbing out response to the confession, Zhongli looked at Childe and he looked ethereal even with red rimmed eyes and a puffy red nose . He cupped his face softly as he stroked his cheek with the pad of his thumb. They looked into each others eyes "Yes. You can court me Zhongli" said childe with a smile. They dont know who closed the distance but with the feeling of soft lips on each other , their minds went blank. They shared a single innocent kiss , till it became 2 then 3 and then countless. The love was visible in their every movement . The way Zhongli held the youngers face , the was Childe wrapped his arms around zhongli and into his hair and finally the way their lips moved against each others , something fresh and new that could never get old ....

Miko walked back to her house with a smile on her face as the sun shone down on her giving her an ethereal glow..."guess i'll get my notebook tomorrow , at least they got their shit together"she laughed and went her way...

END

do you have an oc? (I want to make fanart :)

I assume you mean persona haha! If you didn't sorry. I have many ocs from many different fandoms including my own little story. If you wanna see them instead just send another ask my way lol

But yes! Here's some doodles

I haven't drawn him digitally in awhile so sorry for the old art ^^' But there's the silly little boy!

His name is Cyrus (He/Him) and he's an imp! He's fairly pale except for his reddish spots all over his body. Natural black and red hair colors. Pure black eyes. Er, well, eye sockets. He can make eye lights with magic (they appear as white crosses but sometimes can be red). Goth punk as FUCK. Edgy. (Except for the lil pink bow his wife put on his tail looking at you El<333) Very scruffy and silly man. He's a stinky little boy and is very creature.

[bylertruther]

hot take: people's hc's and hopes for s5 are the most angsty things i've ever read and i cannot imagine enough comfort in the world to balance out some of the angsty shit people are putting out there. we've already gotten 4 seasons of byler angst, haven't people had enough?? my fragile constitution cannot handle the dramatics. why do people write out mike and will saying the most heartbreaking shit to each other?? i just want them to forehead touch and kiss to a beautiful musical score. i want them to bake a loaf of bread together and eat it at sunset and then hold hands at nightfall. that's it, that's s5.

YOU AND ME BOTH, BROTHER 🤝

we've sat through four seasons of them getting their shit rocked, i'd like to believe that in season five they'll stick to their promise and finally be a team again for good this time. mike already admitted that he thought he was worrying too much about el to the point that he'd lost will--i don't want that to be the case again. obviously the First Lie is going to come up and has the potential to ruffle some feathers, but like .. i have had Enough lol<3 canon already has enough misery and frustration, i come on here to talk about them indulging in some gay shit. and considering the duffers aren't planning on making s5 as long as s4 was, i ESPECIALLY do not want their story to be mostly angst up until the second to last episode.

some people like the whump factor and to make angsty characters and ships even more angsty, but i am not one of them bc i have no undeniable 100% secured guarantee that there Will be a happy ending. once by|er is endgame and they have their smalltown boy era THEN i will give in to my angst demon tendencies but for now bro the duffers got that shit on lock!!! if i wanted an angst fest i would just rewatch the show like 😭😭😭😭 LMAOOOOO

but everyone is allowed to have their own headcanons and theories and write what they want obvi tbh this isn't hate towards anyone. i jus kno u will Never catch me reblogging tht shit, but i WILL be screaming crying wailing over the cute n tender headcanons tht people post bc those bring me joy<3 mike n will are already in superhell ok i want to pluck them from their story n drop them into a world where they CAN bake bread together, where mike can wipe the flour from will's cheek but ends up making even more of a mess, where will can decorate their foccacia and make it look so beautiful that mike feels bad eating it later, where mike and will can steal glances at each other under the stars when they think the other isn't looking, where will can sneak little comics he doodled into mike's locker and textbooks for him to find later, where will draws on mike's hand and forearm bc mike is thinking abt a tattoo but too pussy to go through with it, where he can then try his best to return the favor and it's fucking awful LMAO but will loves it sm bc it's mike and he'll never say no to mike putting his hands on him, and where they can slowdance in will's room (bc they Never hang out in mike's room and as such don't want to draw suspicion), and where they can flirt by comparing hand sizes as is tradition like will putting their hands together and being like "wow haha ur hand is so big! :)" and mike is just so so so red screaming dying inside pressing the tips of his fingers down a lil bit bc he wants to lace their fingers together but he doesnt know if will is jus being will or if they're having a category 5 lgbt moment right now so he just chokes out a "yeah haha 😳 crazy..." and gulps like a dweeb, and and and-----

#'haven't people had enough??' me when all of my mutuals are foaming at the mouth talking abt mike dying in will's arms LMAODBSGDJDBDGDHDJ #could NOT be me bc im too sensitive but y'all stay safe tho 🙏 #imma be over here with this anon trembling gripping the sink desperately thinking abt them baking bread n shit #asks

notebook #13!!! she’s a little grimy (i guess that’s what i get for throwing it around everywhere), and she has about 80 pages of wide-ruled composition paper; i started February 1 and ended August 31, so... yeah, definitely not a page a day with this one. extra doodles and insights into how i ‘journal’ below the read more!

my bnha star wars au!! the posed picture on the right is ref’d off a panel of depa & caleb, but otherwise, it’s all idle doodling. i think i reflect my bad posture in all my doodles btw. poor sorahiko and nana... they deserve to stand up straight and proud..

Toshinori on the bottom left corner, pushing his forefingers together and looking anxiously at Nana: “I think Torino-sensei’s mad at me.”

Nana, bumping her fist against Toshinori’s shoulder: “Don’t worry about it. I’ll handle him.”

billboard and postage stamp found through clicking frantically at the smithsonian’s open-access archive. “the woods” by san fermin has an insane breakdown that just rattles your eardrums. sandshrew community day was VERY nice to experience.

(left comic, fastest heroes in the east!au)

Sorahiko: “Pro-heroes are a dime a dozen. What you’re looking to do - to follow Endeavor’s footsteps? You don’t need power. You need a different motivation.”

Hawks: “What was yours?”

Sorahiko: “... My best friend.”

Sorahiko: “Not seeing any alternatives, Toshinori.”

read! read what you can, and jot down notes so you aren’t just skimming blankly at the passages! re-reading the witches by roald dahl was like taking a sip of honeyed tea. i can’t believe i totally just accepted the visual horror as a kid.

*3/23 was the most recent leak night in which vestige!Nana was present. It’s now September. Tick-tock, Horikoshi-sensei!!!

garbo drafting for the “Never Love an Anchor” PMV started MONTHSSS before I just committed to putting it on csp. You can see some panels got shifted, trashed, or retained (the “But try as I might, I could not bring myself to hold you” was a very strong mental image).

my pokemon: unbound playthrough... it’s stalled... but I remember doodling my team comps at the end of every session as an attempt to stay invested.

i visited edinburgh, scotland!!! quite possibly the highlight of my life so far, because it was almost entirely my own responsibility to get myself places (and survive without... necessities...). not sure how @thisauthorisscreaming​ bullied me into hiking arthur’s seat my first morning there, but. yeah that happened.

//

nobody judge me!! i keep making bishops in maplestory cause they have the least amount of attacks, and they all look the same cause i’m a sucker for that hairstyle!! ah, that tera burning event is certainly winding down now. i guess i’ll be back in winter.

rasolnikov (versalian/proto-bishop/totally just a lore-insert, not really a character i was dedicated to getting to lvl200+), jean moreau (victorian islander/bishop/my baby to whom i dedicated an entire made-up story in my head about re: romancing von leon + defeating the black mage), and shuzenji (maple islander/bishop/my latest tera-burned character who is now technically my main, as he has a LOT of money invested in his progress)

//

i really just inserted this picture here because i wanted to show that i use that trick of papering over my OG mistakes HAHA (weeps)

//

anachronism updated, so of course i reread the whole thing and fawned over one of my favorite chapters (was there EVER a gran torino more self-sacrificing?), nana versus torino. and now i have references at hand for the gym uniforms!!! man he looks good in it.

When you accidentally smudge your ceremony makeup

🌹♥♠♣♦🦁🐺🐆🐙🐬🦈☀🐍👑🍎🏹💀🔥🐲🦇⚔⚡

🌹 Riddle - “Ahem.” He calls your attention forward, and gives you the whole Riddle Lecture™: students of NRC must be mindful of their appearances, looking sloppy is a breach of the dress code... but he’ll fix it for you since it’s his job as dorm leader. “The next time, it will be off with your head. Keep that in mind.”

♥ Ace - You’re midway through tiredly rubbing your eyes when Ace reaches out to grab your wrist. “Oi, you’re gonna mess up your—” he starts, but you’ve already done it. “...makeup.” Once he sees the realization settle in on your face, he just starts snickering at you.

♠ Deuce - “Oh no, your makeup!” Deuce wants to help you, but he doesn’t have a spare cloth or anything—and his NRC robes are too precious to get dirty. In his panic to figure something out, he ends up licking his thumb and tries to rub it off for you.

♣ Trey - “Haha, did you forget you were wearing eyeliner? I’m sure the teachers won’t let you leave to go fix it, but let me see...” With a wave of Doodle Suit, he says, “There—now both eyes are smudged, so it looks intentional. ...Just kidding.” You look ceremony-ready again.

♦ Cater - “Hey hey, could you look at me? ...Yup, I was right! You’ve got a teensy issue going on there! One sec, I’ll fix this up super quick for you!” He tilts your chin up with one hand, using the other to pull out his magical pen and touch up your eyeliner.

🦁 Leona - He catches your gaze from across a few people, and wordlessly gestures to his own eye, a half-smirk on his face. You’re not understanding, so you go up to him for clarification; he just tells you “You look like you got punched in the face.”

🐺 Jack - He notices but can’t for the life of him figure out how to tell you. He hopes one of your closer friends might let you know, but the longer time that passes, the more guilty he feels. Finally: “Er, Director... I think you might want to check your eye makeup.”

🐆 Ruggie - “Shishishi~ Need some help? I could fix that up for you, for the cheap price of 300 madols!” You aren’t going to pay him to touch up your makeup when you could easily do it yourself, but without a mirror you only make the smudge worse. Ruggie can’t stand to watch; he ends up cutting in and forcibly taking over. You can owe him later.

🐙 Azul - “Would you mind if I gave you a bit of advice? Your eye,” he points to your right eye. “I’m certain you don’t mean to wear your eyeliner that way. If you’d like, you can borrow my handkerchief.” Seeing your hesitance, he insists that there aren’t any strings attached.

🐬 Jade - “Oh, dear, you’re a complete mess. Have you been crying? There’s no need to be so nervous for a school ceremony. Or was there a different reason?” Jade removes a glove and wipes his thumb beneath your eye. “Don’t hesitate to let me know if you need my assistance with anything.”

🦈 Floyd - He laughs and points out that it almost looks like you’re crying ink! It reminds him of Azul from when they were kids. You ask for his help in cleaning it up, and his grin only grows bigger. “Whaa~? You want me to lick it off for you~?” How else would he get it off?

☀ Kalim - “!” Leaning in close to you, he whisper-shouts in order to be as lowkey about this as possible: “Your makeup! It’s smudged!! Should we run to the bathroom? Wait, maybe Jamil has some stuff.”

🐍 Jamil - “Oh—hold still.” He came to the ceremony prepared with cotton swabs and a tiny vial of micellar water, probably for Kalim but clearly you need it this time. With a few swift and masterful swipes, you’re good to go.

👑 Vil - “How did you manage to smudge your eyeliner that far?” He’s a little baffled you could show up to a ceremony looking like that, but quickly passes you a handkerchief. “Hurry and fix up that mess.” He also has a spare eyeliner on hand, and reapplies it himself to resolve this as quickly as possible.

🍎 Epel - “Do you need a mirror, maybe?” This is the first time he’s brought his phone to a school ceremony despite there being a rule against it, and he’s secretly very proud of that, so he uses this as a chance to bring it out and let you use the camera.

🏹 Rook - Both of his hands fly up, his lips falling agape. “Mon Dieu! Look this way?” He whips out a small cloth and begins to dab your face. “Ah, Trickster. A makeup disaster would never detract from your beauty, but I thought this would save the embarrassment.”

💀🔥 Idia/Ortho - Idia stares at you for a few minutes without a word, sadistically amused that you’re walking around unaware of your unfortunate beauty mishap. But Ortho notices it too, and he doesn’t skip in a beat in running over to let you know about it.

🐲 Malleus - It’s easier for Malleus to use magic to remedy your makeup rather than inform you about it. It’s not worth bringing to your attention if he can quietly poof it away. (Even better if you rub your eye several times and he has to keep looking back over at you to fix it again and again).

🦇 Lilia - “Hoh, were you going for a subtle corpsepaint look?” He’s a fan of the more extreme renditions of this style, but when you get offended by his question he has to explain that your eyeliner has run down to your cheekbones. But, he insists that it looks rather nice; he even wants to adjust his own makeup to match.

⚔ Silver - His sleepiness sometimes makes it hard to think straight and he mistakes your running makeup for dark eye circles. “Did you stay up all night last night?” He’s a little worried about you.

⚡ Sebek - “HUMAN!! Do you know what your face looks like right now!!? Indecent!! Come here.” Sebek is strict about keeping a tidy and professional appearance in front of Malleus, so he’s actually very good at fixing up makeup.

You called us to love and cherish Vittore Simone and the response is a resounding FUCK yes. 💖💖💖Prince of my Heart, Light of my Life, Song in my Soul. I cannot wait to romance him, all the characters are LOVELY, but he’s quickly become my favorite.

With that, and how angsty his route is gonna be 🥺 I was wondering if you would bestow us with some cute/fluffy facts about him (either while in a relationship with MC or just general cute nuggets 💕) ??? thank you I love you muah

Which makes me so, so happy!!! I love all of my characters, but as I have said a million times now, V, in particular, has a very special place in my heart. So, I'm always pleased to see him getting love, hehe

But yes, of course, I will provide some Vittore Simone fluff! Since his route indeed will be a nightmare (haha, get it? Nightmare? Er...), I'll give you solo fluff and relationship fluff!

Cute Facts:

Despite his lifetime of training to control and mask his emotions, he's never been able to break the habit of tucking his hair behind his ear when he's feeling bashful or nervous. If he's feeling especially timid, he'll keep making the tuck motion even when his hair is already securely in place. As a bonus, his other big tell is that he'll twist his curls around his fingers when thinking.

He adores music and usually has a pretty constant internal soundtrack going. It's pretty normal to catch him quietly humming/mumbling a tune to himself or tapping out a rhythm with his foot or against his thigh with whatever he's holding. He also loves to dance, and sometimes you can see a notable rhythmic grace to his footwork like he can't help but move his body to whatever song he's got going in his head.

He's left-handed and has been known to pout when confronted with things that have been designed with only right-handed people in mind. Then he'll stubbornly insist on trying to conquer the right-handed contraption anyway. For example, he once spent an entire day mastering right-handed scissors instead of just going out to get one for left-handed people.

Despite all the nasty rumors about him (and the generally negative opinion of him among the aristocracy), he's very well-loved by the people who actually work for him. He universally treats anyone in his employ with respect regardless of their social status. He is a very fair and generous employer in business and personal contracts (like his household staff). The team that manages his estate especially adores him, and most speak to him informally and treat him more as a friend. None of them had ever seen a nobleman roll up his sleeves and help with the cleaning before, that's for sure.

In-universe, no one but his mother called him "V." After her death, he's never allowed anyone else to use the nickname, insisting on "Vittone," if not his full first name (Vittore Simone). However, he secretly hopes that one day he'll get to hear someone he loves call him "V" again.

Relationship Fluff:

The man is a hopeless romantic; the type who has memorized heaps of love poems and sighs over stories about star-crossed lovers and soulmates. Considering he never expected to find love in his life, he supplemented by consuming every piece of romantic media he could get his hands on. If he does find love, his partner should prepare for 24 years of pent-up romance to be poured into them. He's not going to serenade you in public or anything. Still, he will softly whisper some obscure but heart-achingly moving verse in your ear as he holds you close.

It's easy to forget how young Vittore Simone is because he is technically one of the most politically and financially powerful people globally and carries himself appropriately. That façade of calm, absolute power is something he relentlessly keeps in place. The only person who ever really gets to see him drop the mask, to see him admit to who he really is - a curious 24-year-old who still has a lot to learn - is his partner. The intimacy of that exposure is something he cherishes.

Sometimes he gets distracted while he's working and daydreams about his partner. There have definitely been a couple missives accidentally sent out that had little dumb hearts doodled on the corners of the paper. He'll never admit to this, though - too embarrassed.

He wants to make dinner for (or with) his partner as often as they'll allow him. He's actually a very accomplished cook. He likes the idea that he can do something with his own two hands to pamper them rather than just spending money to spoil them (which, to be fair, he also does). Plus, he likes the intimacy of sharing a casual, home-cooked meal.

He likes to leave his partner little flower messages, especially when he gets caught up with work or has to be away for a while. He'll arrange to have a bouquet sent, and make a little game out of letting his partner figure out what each flower means by conveniently leaving flower language books lying around. He just wants them to know that even when he's not there, he's thinking of them, and he loves them.

Drawn to You (cheesy but i refuse to change it)

masterlist request guidelines requests are open!

pairing: draco x ravenclaw!reader (finally! my first ravenclaw reader!)

request: yes! i’m pairing two together, kind of...if you requested the draco x ravenclaw reader without any other plot specifications other than him being jealous, this one is kind of for you. i didn’t know how to fit the jealousy part in, but you sounded thrilled to have anything ravenclaw and this was next on my list and i didn’t know what to write since i had no other plot points. also...the person who sent this request in, this is for you as well! it’s getting out much sooner than expected, but that’s just because i’m combining.

summary: draco notices a ravenclaw girl doodling him in class and decides to confront her.

warnings: none! just sweet fluff, maybe some cursing.

a/n: oof i’m so sorry for not posting anything for a while! i’ve been going through a rough introspective moment in my life when it comes to my relationship and i feel like i’m on the verge of a breakup and i just kinda feel shitty, so that’s why i’m not writing as much as i should be. i’ll be okay, though, i have no doubt about it. if you have words of wisdom i’m all ears haha. also shoutout to my laptop for deleting the draft of this and making me rewrite the whole thing LOL

taglist: @accio-rogers

Umbridge was a horrible teacher, even when she wasn’t acting bigoted and racist. Her classroom was so soulsuckingly boring that even her Slytherin pets found themselves tired of it. 

So, naturally, as Umbridge instructed the students to copy down a passage from their blasted textbook three times, Draco Malfoy couldn’t help but let his eyes wander across the room.

He was always an efficient writer and made quick work of the task, but as he scanned the room, he found that no one else was in the same boat as he was. He ran his fingers through his hair, already drafting the letter that he’d send his father when he got back to the dorms about how Umbridge sucked the life out of every class and that the ministry ought to do something about it. His father would find something to do to make her treat students, or at the very least, Slytherin students, better.

The back of his neck tingled, like someone was watching him. Draco’s eyes shot around the room, trying to see if another pair of eyes were trained on him. 

There. 

It was a brief moment, but he had seen a girl with Y/H/C hair duck her head down at the table by the door. Looking closer, he could see a blue and bronze tie around her neck. The girl was wearing her uniform, but it looked slightly tampered with--a brooch and a flower were attached to her lapels and a midnight blue scrunchie resided on her wrist. 

Ah, he knew who it was. He had never spoken directly to Y/N Y/L/N before (he was never close to any Ravenclaws), but he often saw her floating through the halls, conversing quietly but passionately with her friends at meals, and curled intently over what he thought was a journal in the library. She had a slightly dreamy vibe, but not in the loony Luna fashion...it just seemed as though she looked at everything around her through a different, more delicate lens.

Draco knew he needed to stop observing her like a creep, but there was something off about the Ravenclaw. She was intently focusing on a piece of parchment in front of her, but her textbook was forgotten and pushed off to the side.

She swiftly glanced up again, meeting his eyes and freezing for a moment. A soft rose began blooming on her cheeks as she tried to nonchalantly scan the room, pretending like she wasn’t just looking at him. After she seemed satisfied, she ducked back down to whatever she was working on.

Then it hit him. Her hand was moving in methodical but varied strokes and she often spun the parchment to regard it at a new angle. Draco realized that she wasn’t writing--no, she was drawing something. 

He leaned forward in his chair, attempting to catch a glimpse of the picture. His tries were in vain, however, as he was much too far away to make out anything.

Draco was overtaken by an intense curiosity to know what she was drawing, and in typical Slytherin fashion, he had a plan. 

Raising his hand, he asked Umbridge if he could go to the loo. She quickly granted permission--he was one of her favorite students, after all. 

He rose up from his chair, carefully maneuvering his path so he would be forced to walk past Y/N’s table to get to the door. The girl was so engrossed in her work that she didn’t even hear him approaching.

However, once he saw what she was drawing, his previous swagger and slyness crawled into a hole and died, instead leaving him frozen with shock.

Y/N’s careful hand was meticulously adding eyelashes to a sketch of him leaning over his own textbook and writing, as he had been doing just minutes before. Picture Draco’s eyes were narrowed in gentle concentration, her handiwork capturing the intelligent glimmer in his eyes just perfectly. A piece of hair hung over his forehead, just barely tickling his brow. 

Suddenly self conscious, Draco reached his hand up to feel his forehead, and sure enough, a stray hair lay there. 

She had done a really good job. It was almost as if she had taken a picture and pressed it into the parchment, and he wasn’t sure how to feel about it.

The sudden rustling of his robes jolted Y/N out of her trance, and just as she was beginning to look up at Draco, he bolted off, his mind racing even faster than his feet.

♥♥♥♥

“You’ve got an admirer, Y/N!” Melanie, a fellow Ravenclaw, giggled into her ear. 

“Huh!” Y/N responded, looking up from her dinner plate.

“Yeah, look over at the Slytherin table, you’ll see.” The blonde shoved her shoulder playfully, motioning with her head. 

Y/N raked her eyes up and down the table, not seeing anyone in particular, until she stopped at the very end of it. 

Draco Malfoy’s eyes were unnervingly bore into hers from across the hall, making the hairs on the back of her neck stand up.

“Are you sure he’s admiring me, Melanie?” Y/N quipped, nervous amusement creeping into her tone. “He looks like he’s going to skin me alive instead.”

Melanie shrugged, spearing a roasted carrot on her fork. 

“You never know with those Slytherins. They’re so unpredictable. One day they’re all over you, the next...” Melanie sighed, and Y/N had a feeling that her friend was no longer offering advice, rather sharing her own personal experience with one Pansy Parkinson. 

“I’m sorry, you didn’t deserve to be treated like that,” Y/N comforted, placing a hand on her shoulder. “You’re more than someone to experiment around with, and you’re gonna find your person one day!” 

They were silent for a few moments.

“Speaking of finding people,” Melanie said, “Where did Draco go?”

Y/N looked over to where he had been sitting moments before, only to see his seat vacant. The Slytherin table looked oddly empty without their token head of silvery blonde hair. 

She only had a few moments to wonder before a throat cleared behind her. Spinning around, Y/N was greeted with the sight of a rather flustered looking Draco Malfoy.

“Er... hey, Malfoy, can I help you?” Y/N cringed at how professional she sounded, like a saleswoman welcoming him into a store.

He cleared his throat again. 

“Yeah, can I talk to you for a second?” He stayed stationary, his eyes flickering nervously and refusing to meet hers. “Alone, if that’s alright?”

Y/N shot Melanie a what the fuck look and received an identical one back before standing up. 

“Sure, where do you want to go?”

♥♥♥♥

Y/N followed the Slytherin out of the Great Hall and to a quiet corridor, all the while wondering what was wrong. Draco had never spoken directly to her, and while she’d always admired him from afar, she never imagined them having a conversation. Maybe he had seen her drawing him?

She pushed the thought away. There was no chance.

“Let’s sit here.” Draco’s voice pulled her out of her thoughts as he motioned to an empty staircase. 

They sat down, leaving a healthy few inches between them. Draco fiddled with his robes as Y/N picked at her fingernail polish, justifying her actions by reminding herself that they were chipped anyways.

“What’s up?” Y/N finally asked, breaking the awkward silence. 

“Well, I, er, noticed something in class today that I wanted to speak to you about,” Draco said. 

Were his hands shaking?

Y/N had no more time to wonder as the truth of the matter hit her. Of course he had seen the sketch of him in DADA. She had thought she was sly about it, but there was no other reason for him to be talking to her.

Recognizing the realization displayed on her face, Draco leaned a bit closer.

“It was a beautiful drawing, by the way,” he informed her softly. “But I’m sure you already knew that.” 

“I’m sorry,” Y/N blurted. “I know that I should’ve asked first. That was super creepy of me to do. I swear I’m not some sort of stalker...her class is just so--”

“Boring?” Draco cut in, one eyebrow raising in amusement. “Yeah, I know. And it’s alright...I just want to know why you did it.”

Y/N froze, another blush creeping up on her already hot cheeks.

“I don’t know, I was bored, and you were in good lighting,” she lied, hoping he wouldn’t notice. 

“Why didn’t you sketch Goyle or Crabbe? They were next to the window with me,” Draco pushed, bumping her shoulder and making her suck in a quick breath. 

“I...er....I just do whatever my inner artist desires,” she responded lamely. “You just looked so focused, and your hair is really fun to draw, so...”

She stopped herself before she could let anything else slip out.

“Oh, so you’ve done it before?” he teased, an infuriatingly calm smirk forming on his lips. 

“None of your business,” she grumbled, breaking the eye contact and scooting away from him.

Draco waited a few painful seconds before shifting the same distance closer to her. 

“I don’t want to upset you,” he said truthfully. “I honestly think it’s cute.”

Y/N blushed again, resting her face in her hand to try and hide the evidence. 

“You don’t think it’s creepy?”  she asked, cautiously meeting his eyes. 

“No, how could I?” he answered, mirroring her actions. “I’m flattered, truly.” 

She allowed herself to smile shyly at him.

“Thank you for understanding, Draco, I appreciate it.” She let the words hang out in the air for a few moments before finishing. “I should really head back to my friends though, they’re going to start to get worried.” 

Draco smiled too, a rare break from his snarky facial expressions. Y/N made a mental note to recreate the exact scene in her sketchbook as well. 

“I know, me being a Slytherin and all,” he agreed. “Your friends are probably seconds away from telling Dumbledore that you’ve been kidnapped and murdered.”

“We really don’t think you’re that bad,” Y/N soothed. “They’d only assume kidnapping. They don’t think you’re cut out for murder.” 

Draco looked like he was about to argue, but he shut his mouth and grinned. 

“Well, Y/N, I’m glad I got to finally talk to you,” he said as he stood up, offering his hand to her.

“Me too,” she admitted, taking his hand. “I’ve got to be off now, but if you’d like, I can give you the sketch.” 

Draco was positively glowing. 

“I would say yes,” he began, “but then I’d lose my excuse to talk to you.”

Y/N’s heart stopped. She would’ve clasped her hands together as an anxious movement if she wasn’t clutching one of Draco’s.

“So what do you propose then?” she pressed, only stumbling over her words a little bit. 

“I hear Hogsmeade has even better lighting than Umbridge’s classroom.”

final a/n: woah this request was adorable and i’m in love with the person who sent it in tysm. also did not edit this and i don’t have any beta readers so i apologize for any glaring plot holes/mistakes. let me know what you thought of it!!

France and America comforting an overworked s/o:

Take it from the boys and take a break, love. We all have those times where everything is just too much, but you know what?  Bad times are just times, that are bad. They pass like everything else too.

Just hang on a little bit more.

France:

Being in college sucks.

You already  thought, that your school career was horrible enough but this one assignment had you hunched over your desk at 2am, tired and completely done with everything.

Your stomach hurt, because you skipped dinner and your eyes felt drowsy...

"CLICK", your front door was unlocked and you heard the familiar steps of your favourite Frenchman stepping in and taking his coat off,  before his footsteps became louder and louder.

„Ma fleur?“, sounded the soothing voice of your boyfriend.

„It´´s 2am, why are you still up? Aren´t you tired?, he placed a loving kiss on your forehead before he curiously leaned over your shoulder to let his dark blue eyes roam over the hundreds of papers, notes and doodles you created within the last few hours.

„Sure am, but I need to finish this.“, you sighed and picked up a few sheets to tidy the place up a bit; but the silence was interrupted by a painful growl of your stomach.

„Did you have dinner?“, he asked with worry lacing his words. You took his hand and he gripped it tightly.

„You´ve been skipping meals when I´m gone, (y/n). That´s not good.“

„I know but I need to get this finished.“

„That´s not an excuse to risk your wellbeing.“, he responded and softly drew circles on the back of your hand with his thumb.

„I brought some take-out, we will eat it in the kitche-“

„No, no.“ You shook your head. „Francis please, I need to get this don-“

„- done by next week and you worked so hard. It´s almost finished, mon chou.“, Francis turned you around to look at you properly and he felt a twinge of sadness, when he saw the dark circles under your eyes.

„You have to stop putting yourself under so much pressure, (y/n). We are going to eat a bit and you can continue working tomorrow. I won´t let you stay up all night and risk your health for some college assignment.“

His dark blue eyes were stern and his tone already told you, that it was useless trying to argue with the Frenchman; especially when he was right.

He caught you when you stumbled trying to get up from your desk and brought you to the kitchen.

After that Francis kept an even closer eye on you, texting you more often and even going as far as to send food to your place to ensure that you´re having regular meals while he´s gone. You also often find yourself rambling and ranting about the assignment during the evenings, when he got off work early to spend more time with you and happily listens to you, while you work. He´s bringing up a few jokes here and there to loosen the situation up and to remind you to drink water and have a snack.

America:

New Text Message(s):

„Hey babe what u up to?“

„Yooooooo“

„(y/n), u there?“

„U still at the gym or what?haha“

“Any wishes for dinner tonight? xx“

You didn´t have time to read the texts of your boyfriend, since you just finished your shift , making your way home now.

You rarely had time to text your lovely boyfriend anymore, since you worked two more jobs in addition to your original job at the library. Those extra jobs cause you more stress than you wanted to put up with, but if this was the price you had to pay in order to buy Alfred that special edition console with his favourite game, that he´s been wishing for for his birthday on July 4th, then damnit; it was worth it.

Exhausted and covered with grease you entered the apartment and found your boyfriend sitting on your couch, standing up when you entered the livingroom.

„Babe, my boss let me off early today, so I thought I´d surprise you.“, he grinned and approached you.

„Figured that maybe you´d like to go ou-... wow, you look tired.“, he commented with his grin slowly leaving his face as you stared at him with an irritated glare.

„No shit“, you grumbled and dropped your jacket off.

„Dude, are you ok?“, he asked with his blue eyes observing you from behind his glasses.

„Yeah I´m fine.“, a stabbing pain in your back made you hold back a groan and made you sit down on the couch, rubbing the aching spot.

„You´re obviously not fine.“, he responded and sat down on the table in front of you, piercing you with his blue eyes, that were full of worry.

After a few seconds of silence between the two of you he sniffled and the familiar smile came back to his face.

„No way, did you already get some food without me?“, he laughed and you looked up at him.

„Wha-? Er...no- I was at work.“

„Since when do you serve food at a library?“

(...)

Alfred was far from stupid but honestly he wasn´t the sharpest tool in the shed either.

You could basically watch how the wheels in his head slowly started turning and after a few seconds he gave a noise of understanding.

„You got a second job!“, he concluded. „But why?“

„That´s none of your business, Al.“, you responded in an icy tone and regretted those words already. Hurt flashed in his eyes at your harsh words but it was gone as quickly as it came.

„Hey, if there´s something bothering you it also becomes my problem. Since when are we doing solo missions, eh?“, he smiled at you and nudged your knee.

„Listen, you don´t need to know.“, you explained with an unfamiliar coldness.

„Baby, I´ve been a bit worried lately. You´re so busy working your butt off 24/7, that you don´t even even respond to my memes anymore.

You love memes! Obviously there´s something wrong going on and I´d like to know, if I can help you.“

„I said-“, you wanted to blow up on him but that little voice in your heart intervened. You knew very well, that Alfred only meant well; he cared for you and you simply couldn´t bring it over yourself to lash out on him, no matter how much you wanted to.

You looked up to meet his gaze and all anger got extinguished as soon as your eyes met his worried gaze and encouraging soft smile.

„Just...just know, that I have to keep up like this for a few more months.“, you sighed and Alfred carefully took your hand in his.

„(y/n), is that really good for you though?“

„I have no choice!“, you whispered- „I need those two extra jobs...“

„Two extra jobs!?“, he exclaimed with wide eyes and quickly embraced your form, that still smelled like the greasy food from the Truck Stop you worked at this morning.

„No wonder you´re never home!“, he embraced you even tighter burying your face in his chest. It´s been so long since you actually felt his heartbeat like this, that you felt tears escape your eyes and run down your cheek.

„You´re quitting those two jobs as soon as possible.“, he declared.

„Will do, Al“, you muffled against his t-shirt.

After that Alfred insisted on picking you up from work and he keeps texting you often during the day, also sending some wholesome memes to cheer you up during your breaks.

Al knows from personal experience how easy it is to slip into unhealthy habits when work takes a large portion of the day, so he tries to keep your spirits high as good as he can during the next few months until July.

Only then did you finally ditch the two jobs and finally returned to the healthy life-work balance you two are used to. When Alfred learnt, that you went through all of this just to give him the best birthday present he couldn´t stop thanking you, but also asked you to never pull such a stunt again.

There is no overworked s/o on his watch.

Model AU but instead of Lance as the model it’s Keith as the model and Lance as one of the photographers (maybe he used to model too?) and he’s exasperated with Keith’s poses. Lance tried to show him poses, Keith’s frustrated, somehow Lance gets roped into the shoot and tension builds on set

Gosh I don’t know much about modeling to be honest. I know even less about photography. But I do like this idea a lot. (It’s gonna be so obvious that I don’t know shit about the modeling world in this haha.)

Like maybe Keith’s a little new at this. He’s a fresh model who’s not quite as relaxed as he could be. He’s still not used to doing fancy shoots but the clothing company that he’s modeling for really like his look and want to give him more chances to showcase their clothes. 

Lance used to model but found that the real money is in finding a decent photographer. Far too many models don’t get noticed all because they don’t have photographers that accent their best features. Then those models quit before they can ever really dip their feet into the modeling world. Lance finds that he’s good at getting those diamonds in the rough to shine brighter when they’re in front of his lens.

Lance is actually working with another group when he looks over at the set that’s shooting Keith. Good looking guy but he’s so stiff. Nervous. A newbie he guesses immediately. And they’re shooting him all wrong. The lighting. The poses. It’s not highlighting his good points well enough. And it’s bothering lance enough that he has to say something to their photographer or the model to fix it.

“Can I just–take ten you two,” Lance tells the coat models he’s shooting. “Drink some water, have Conner touch up your makeup. Think winter wonderland thoughts. I’ll be right back.”

Lance strides over to the other set and has a word with the photographer. 

“What seems to be the problem, Kinkade?” 

“No problem here,” the photographer insists though he’s got a forced smile. 

“Come on, Ryan,” Lance frowns at him and his friend sighs.

“Alright, look,” he says, keeping his voice low. “He’s not a bad model but I can’t get him to look natural for anything. His poses are…almost mechanical. Stiff. And he won’t smile. When he does it looks…forced.”

“Want me to talk to him? Give him some pointers?” Lance asks.

“If you think it’ll help, go for it,” Ryan sighs. “I’m gonna get some coffee. Ten-minute break!”

Lance approaches the new model with a bottle of water and a laidback smile. He doesn’t smile back but he takes the bottle and thanks Lance for it. 

“New right?” Lance asks.

“Is it that obvious?” Keith frowns and twists the cap off the water. 

“A little,” Lance admits but keeps up the friendly smile. “Name’s Lance. You’re modeling for Killstar, huh? Must have liked your dark hair and brooding face.”

“I guess,” Keith shrugs before taking a sip. “I’m Keith,” he says and shakes Lance’s hand. “I’m…probably not going to last long here. Photographer hates me.”

“What? Ryan? No, he’s just…he’s used to working with seasoned guys,” Lance tells him. “I used to model, if you want my two cents, I can help you out.”

“Can’t make me any worse than I already am,” Keith shrugs. 

Lance shows him how to use the set to get more natural-looking shots. Instead of just standing in the cemetery set they’ve got going on, maybe lean on the fence. Or sit on the ground next to a headstone, tilting his head back onto it to look up at the sky. Sprawl out on top of the tomb while looking despondently at the dead shrubbery. Not every picture has to have him looking into the photographer’s lens after all. Keith gives a few of these poses a try, mimicking Lance’s technique. 

Lance takes a few shots with his camera and shows them to Keith so he’ll know how it looks. Keith holds his chin pensively while looking at the shots and nods as Lance tells him how to make it better. How and when to tilt his head, where to direct his gaze. To use his hands to push his bangs out of his face with a wistful look of longing. He doesn’t have to smile like he’s happy to see someone (since Kinkade says he doesn’t really do smiles) but maybe a smirk every once in a while, like he’s showing someone up. 

When Kinkade comes back, Lance knows it’s time for him to return to his set. He wishes Keith good luck and jogs off. It’s not until later after the shoots are done that Keith approaches him again, tapping on his shoulder.

“Keith, right?” Lance points with a smile.

“Right,” he nods. “I uh, wanted to thank you for earlier. The photographer said I was doing a lot better the second time around.”

“That’s great!”

“Yeah,” Keith nods again and clears his throat. “Are you…I mean, can you be requested for future shoots?”

“For Killstar?” Lance asks. “Well, yeah, I’m freelance. Haha, get it? Free Lance? I’m Lance. It’s terrible I know, moving on,” he coughs and he swears Keith stifled a laugh. “You just have to let Killstar know you want me to do your shoot. They’ll check it against their own costs and whatnot and then if it’s less of a cost to them than their usual photographers they’ll schedule it with me. Honestly, I’m cheaper than most because I don’t mind working with amateurs.”

“That’s great but uh, I meant…” Keith swallows and shifts awkwardly in place, arms crossing and holding at the elbows. “I uh… wanted to get more poses in. Er, I mean practice in. With poses. You’re really–what I mean is–Private shoots. Do you do private shoots?” he finally spits out. 

Lance stares, blinking at him for a moment when it clicks. Oh. Oh ho. Lance chuckles a little laugh as he fiddles with his camera. He really is cute…and definitely his type. Quiet awkward type in public…and who knows what behind closed doors.

“Yeah, I do private shoots,” Lance answers as he smiles down as his camera. “I even have a small studio set up at my place,” he adds and then looks up at an enrapt looking Keith. “Tonight…do you have an opening?”

“Wh-What?” Keith stammers, his face flushing with heat.

“In your schedule?” Lance elaborates with a snort. “Do you have an opening in your schedule tonight?” he asks.

“O-Oh…uh…” Keith swallows and swipes through his phone to check. “I uh…I’m free after 5.”

“Great,” Lance smiles and grabs something out of his pocket. A business card. On the back, he scribbles out a little something more before handing it to Keith. “Here’s my card. Later Keith.”

The business card has his number and the address of his studio. Lance’s home. The back has a personal number and a note that says ‘looking forward to doing business with you’ and a doodle of a heart. Keith just stands there with the card in his hand, heart pounding like a drum in anticipation of what awaits at Lance’s studio. 

(You thirsty sluts want more don’t you? This is one of those rare, if I write it Keith’s going to be a desperate subby bottom fics.)
