Hello! Soo I was wondering if I could request a RemusxReader oneshot/blurb with this scenario. Hear me out:
Reader openly talking to the girls about her crush on Remus she as had for years and just being so casual talking about how much she likes him and thinks he's amazing and hot, and how much she loves him (practically me simping for Rem) and she isn't embarrassed cuz she's known Lily and Marlene for years and they're used to talk like that and tease each other kindly (they usually do it to Lily). But they don't know that Remus and the boys are "accidentally" listening to their conversation.
Lmk what you think! Thankyou ly, byebye <3

(remus lupin x reader)
contents : fluff, the marauders being nosy af and eavesdropping, bad writing and not proofread :(
a/n : hello anon!!! ty so so much for the request and im so so sorry for taking so long in writing it. but hey i am here and im at your service ;) i rly hope u like this and it fulfilled what you asked for ☁️☁️
  . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆
"[y/n] are you free tonight? or does loverboy has to take you away before midnight?" marlene said, linking your arms together as you two walked inside the common room.
"yes... why?"
"charms."
"charms?"
"assignment."
"oh-"
"yes."
"charms assignment that you need me to help you with?"
"obviously,"
"ah fine," you eyes slowly averted to the smile of none other that remus lupin. your mind goes fuzzy all of a sudden. he was joking and laughing with james in front of the fireplace. "he looks so happy today," you whispered to yourself, smiling.
"aww, you care about his happiness! just make out already," marlene said, wiggling her thick brows.
"that's one step beyond. not ethical," you shook your head in a mocking manner. "where's lily by the way? is she up here already?"
marlene shrugged as she opened the door to the dormitory, letting the warm air hit both of their faces.
later that night, you were helping marlene out on the charms essay and let's just say... it wasn't going as planned.
"marl, it's not how it is. you have to read the whole thing first then make your own summary about it so professor flitwick won't accuse you of plagiarism."
"but there's too many! why isn't there a charms to shorten paragraphs," she whined like a child on the sidewalk when their moms didn't get ice cream.
"liliana, help me over here. marl doesn't want to read,"
"i doing my eye mask, can't stand up," she reasoned stupidly.
"eye masks stick to your under eyes. yes you can stand up without them falling off. i wish remus was here, he can probably summarise four pages in just two minutes, he's incredibly smart," you closed your little tired eyes.
"if remus was here, he wont be teaching me anything, he would be too busy with you," marlene scoffed, although she is teasing.
"that's right," lily agreed. "remember this morning when [y/n] dropped mashed potatoes on his head? he didn't even blame her! he was blushing."
"also in dada, didn't you see remus was basically mumbling a mantra to be partnered up with [y/n], that's so sweet," marlene continued in a teasing voice, her charms assignment completely tossed of to the side.
you think to yourself, a conversation about remus late at night is way more interesting than charms. so you didn't budge. "aw yea he did, i saw," you cheeks turned crimson as you smile.
"isn't he just so... beautiful? i never look at anyone- except for my barbie dolls when i was five- this way. he is just right in every way."
"mhmmm keep going my love," marlene replied, after noticing a slight crack in the door with the marauders behind it. they were appalled when marlene saw them but marlene stays quiet, sending a wink their way.
at first, they were up here because james wanted to return lily's hair clip in which the boy slyly stole during class for this moment. but the others insisted to go up to see her reaction for some reason.
remus wouldn't complain though. he got to hear what the girl he loves for so much has to say bout him when he's not around.
your back was facing the door with your legs crossed over your chest and you hugging them. "his face may be pretty, but i think his heart is way prettier. for god's sake he holds my hand when i was anxious for that history presentation! he knows my needs so well."
"yes, that's so kind of him," lily urged for you to continue so she can tease you about it the next morning in front of remus lupin.
"and the best part is, remus respects women! he treats me like how i treat the girls and women around me. that's the hottest thing a guy could ever do," you dazed out, burying your face in between your kneecaps.
"ugh we love a respectful king, don't we girls!" marlene said purposely loud so remus can hear the conversation wide and clear from the door. his eyes were basically making heart eyes at the back of your head, his smile is like he had just won a contest and to hide that would be so dishonest.
"i told you to get her on a date sooner, she is the one!" sirius nudged remus rather harshly, but he was too focused on you.
"but what i don't like about him is the fact that he thinks he's not worthy of anything. he is. he deserves the biggest apology and happiness there ever was. he is like a moon river. i would roll my ship at night just to see the sparkles that he got. my huckleberry friend."
"isn't that enough to confirm that [y/n] loves you back, remus?" marlene shouted, her vision straight to the door.
your eyes widened in panic as your blood rushed into your cheeks. was remus hearing all of this? oh no freaking way- he can't be!
the door swung open, revealing the marauders who were standing with their jaws on the floor.
"i'm going out," lily spoke up, slipping out the door with james running after her like a lost puppy.
"you better do something," marlene winked at remus as she pushed him inside the room. remus nodded numbly, processing on what just happened. marlene was already dragging sirius down to give their friends privacy.
"hey, can i come in?"
"gosh i'm so sorry you heard all of that! you don't understand how embarrassing it is for me right now. i wish to disappear!" you scrunched your face, mortified by what his reactions may be.
"listen, uh, what you said were- it really makes me happy that you think of me that way because... so do i! i've been scared to say anything because i just- wasn't sure if you like me that way or not..."
"well, you heard it... what am i going to do now," you whispered the last part under your breath.
lucky for remus, he's got super hearing powers due to his lycanthropy so he heard that as clear as the sky is blue. "we can do what girlfriend and boyfriend do," remus answered shyly, playing with the end of your blanket that dropped from your bed.
"excuse me ma'am, you haven't asked me for dinner yet and now we're girlfriend and boyfriend?" you said in a joking manner to ease the tension out.
"okay let's do baby steps. come here, m'love, want to hold my girl," he opened his arms with his eyes closed. does he even know how cute he is right now?

just some thoughts on lucifer (and mildly simeon)
spoilers for simeon’s part? lesson 72 i think it was? i have no idea i haven’t gotten there yet💀
i rly like the subtle jealousy lucifer displays in s3 when the player spends more time with diavolo. (i’m gonna be honest it’s been a while since i thoroughly played the main story, but i can’t have hallucinated it all!?)
he doesn’t explicitly state it (i’m pretty sure) but i find it so funny how he was just eavesdropping in that one lesson. just fucking standing there waiting for diavolo to leave😭
i wanna see more jealous luci content!! but not the type that goes into nsfw with bdsm and all that. just subtle stuff. maybe him getting that stick out of his ass and admitting that he feels threatened by diavolo. him being vulnerable with mc!! or just in general. because if diavolo decided that he wanted to confess to mc and they like him back,,, there’s nothing lucifer can do about it. with his brothers and lesser demons i’m sure he doesn’t even have to speak just to show that they don’t stand a chance against him. he can easily scare other people off to keep mc to himself—but not diavolo! the fact that they’re so close (or at least work closely) makes it sm worse and i love it.
i know that it’s already canon that diavolo likes the player, but even if the player confesses that they like him too, they never outright date him. or any singular person for that matter—which i love. i love whoring around in this game sm. he’d just have to accept it and sit there and sulk and i love it (i would break, just wanna hug him tbh)
the whoring around part also makes sense with 90% of the cast because of the mortality thing. (and the game generally being made that way but yk?)
WHIIICH brings me to simeon. i don’t know if anyone has already written this but i would wanna read a fic/drabbles/hcs of the brothers and dateables reacting to the mc getting with simeon once he’s human. or like… if the player had preciously rejected any form of serious relationship because of them being mortal. going like “i want to grow old with someone” and stuff bc that’s not something any of them can provide!!
HOWEVER NOW THAT SIMEON IS HUMAN… i wanna see how they’d react when they find out. i haven’t even gotten to the lesson where he confesses this fact to the player so i’m not sure if anyone else knows yet!? but if they found out and connected the dots that they may lose mc to simeon since their lifespan is the same now—i would eat that shit up fr. just some sweet angst!!!

my personality traits for my Brand New Guy so far are:
he may be hot but he really doesn’t think of himself as A Hot Guy. that is to say he’s not rly a womanizer type, doesn’t rly preen himself particularly, doesn’t use his appearance to get what he needs (like information) even when he easily could. he does dress well and he does put effort into his appearance, like he does his hair and makeup and outfits the way he likes, it’s just not rly for anyone else’s benefit or to specifically look nice, he just likes how HE looks in things. it’s not that he’s unaware of how he looks it’s just rly not something that’s anywhere near the top of his mind or his priorities. he’s kind of an effortlessly cool guy but without the effortlessness cause again he does dress good on purpose but just bc he likes how it looks. it’s the confidence what makes him so hot i think. imo
very dry, sarcastic, ironic and at times dark sense of humor. in his life he had seen some Shit so he definitely developed some true gallows humor to deal with it, but he’s not the type to make fun of other peoples difficult situations. a lot of ppl don’t get his humor and think he’s being serious about things at times or think he’s just saying like actual nonsense/nonsequiturs.
generally a chill and laid back guy but nowhere near the way deacon is. deacon is chill and laid back in like a dad way, a cool dad who drives a car and is aging incredibly gracefully but is also constantly making the dumbest jokes you’ve ever heard and supports his adoptive daughter/charge almost TOO loudly (like the dads in the football stands who bring an entire giant sign to support their kids on like a practice game). my new guy is chill in like an uncle j.esse from f.ull h.ouse way. i imagine. i have never seen f.ull h.ouse. just picture like a guy who’s incredibly popular and cool in school bc he’s attractive but he’s not a dick about it and is pretty generally nice and keeps to himself and his surprisingly small group of close friends. would be fine if he wasn’t popular at all. nice to everyone unless they’re an asshole to him first. respectful. but most importantly again very much keeps to himself.
very private fellow. doesn’t like sharing information about his private life openly. this is something he and miss moon agree strongly on, which is interesting because miss moon probably knows more about him than anyone else who is still in contact with him (his old friends probably know as much or more but they don’t even know he still exists bc of muse rules) and miss moon honestly feels like she knows Way Too Much about him. she’d be fine with it if all she knew abt him was that he’s a guy, he’s a muse, and he used to smoke. and tbh? even the smoking thing is a little too personal to her.
ppl think he’s some kind of stoic bad boy often bc he’s very quiet but honestly he is quiet bc he doesn’t have a lot to say. he is always listening though. he’s one of those ppl who ends up knowing everything abt everyone because he sits quietly and people just start talking abt things with each other that they wouldn’t say to anyone else while he’s around bc they just assume he isn’t listening bc he’s not saying anything. this is not something he rly cares abt one way or the other bc he has no real use for it cause he really doesn’t care what other ppl do unless it’s something thts completely fucked and harmful, but it becomes useful when he’s partnered with miss moon to investigate the disappearances. he doesn’t even mean to eavesdrop he is just a perceptive and attentive person and most ppl talk way more loudly than he’d prefer they do.
you might assume from how cool he is that he takes his coffee black and bitter bc he’s so cool and edgy and he can handle it but no. no. a million sugars and creams for this guy. he does like the taste of coffee (so like he doesn’t want it to taste NOTHING like coffee) but he is so easily swayed by a fancy lil mocha frappuccino with double extra whip. definite sweet tooth on this dude.
his major flaw is sometimes he is so laid back and not bothered abt what’s going on outside his circle that he’s Too laid back and apathetic. part of it makes sense if you consider his life was so incredibly difficult growing up that he kind of had to learn to push all the other shit away to be able to deal with just his shit and not be distracted and actually survive, instead of worrying about everything that’s happening and overwhelming himself and getting dragged under. but it’s not a good excuse and he can be very apathetic with some pretty morally grey things. when trails go cold he gives up way easier than miss moon simply because he can’t be assed to care about why it went cold and he figures they should focus on finding new leads and continuing to move forward instead. it also can make him seem pretty emotionally unavailable to others bc if you aren’t close to him and you share something that’s personal and troubling you, often you pretty much just get a “that sucks dude”. because apathy and having learned to focus on his own survival + his laser focus on privacy and boundaries and feeling like much more than superficial knowledge of someone is just too much fucking information (but not as much as miss moon. nowhere near her actually). he is not an easy person to get close to honestly. bc part of getting close to someone IS sharing personal things and trusting them and he is just not interested in knowing that. or trusting others
yeah he has some trust issues. he mainly relied on himself growing up. his family was supportive but they couldn’t help him any more than they could help themselves bc they were all in the same situation, so he knew it was kinda useless to ask them for much bc wtf are they gonna do about the same issues they’re unable to help themselves with? he did have a set of close friends in life, but that took a while to even happen bc of his hangups and he’s still kind of stuck in the mentality of that circle being closed and tight knit, he’s not really ready to bring anyone else into his life even if he doesn’t know them anymore. it’s like he has a lifetime maximum quantity of trusted ppl and he’s already hit the cap.
kind of proud to be honest, in a way that is a hang up for him. never liked to ask for help from his friends even when they could have helped him, and even when they offered it he always turned them down and felt like he could never accept it. he’d feel like he was indebted to them and he hates owing ppl. he pays debts and repays favors as quickly as he can bc he hates feeling like he’s getting something for free or out of pity. big on the idea of being even with someone. part of it is bc he had so little in his life that he felt like the last truly meaningful thing he had was his dignity and integrity, but he took it too far tbh. big on earning things for himself. hates feeling like he didn’t work hard enough to earn something, which happens more often than he’d like to admit because he often struggles with insecurity involving this and a pervasive fear that things are given to him out of pity or charity. doesn’t really speak about it though. whenever he feels that way he tends to go quietly do some more work to feel even on it. (like if he felt he was being congratulated or celebrated way more on a solve than he deserved, he wouldn’t openly tell anyone but he would just kind of quietly go and like… anonymously send any victims some help to keep them extra afloat, or start on another case like immediately)
also to clarify: it is not that he isn’t a nice person and wouldn’t help ppl out of the kindness of his heart when they are victims he just honestly usually feels it’s not his business and kind of assumes Everyone feels the same way he does about being indebted or given favors. to him he’s doing a nice thing by solving their issue and leaving them alone bc if he did any more it would be A) way too personal for his comfort B) an invasion of their privacy as well and C) potentially embarrassing to them bc it could be interpreted as him implying that they’re not capable of supporting themselves.
in his life he grew up extra poor in a pretty broke area with a lot of crime. but the school district he belonged to was filled with a lot of rich kids from neighboring areas that were a lot wealthier than he was. in primary and years like 6/7 through 8 he wasn’t really notable at all, not super popular or conversely not super bullied or anything kind of just an average kid who no one noticed outside his group of like 3 or 4ish friends. but in year 9 and especially in the rest of secondary school he kind of randomly underwent this whole transformation where he suddenly became very noticeable and ppl considered him very cool for his chill attitude. honestly he blossomed the most noticeably in year 10, like all of a sudden over the summer he completely changed how he looked and dressed. despite being poor he dressed very well, mostly by A) trawling through thrift shops B) customizing everything he has (his mother was a tailor and a seamstress so she was able to fit a lot of his clothes specifically for him) and C) just generally… not caring about fashion trends or what was considered cool or if people thought he looked stupid and just doing his own thing, putting effort into his appearance for his own sake and not rly anyone else’s.
also in year 10 he definitely started borrowing his moms makeup a lot. he didn’t do like huge glam looks or anything but there was definitely concealer and lip tint and eyeliner involved. not rly something he hid bc he didn’t rly care if anyone knew but didn’t rly openly talk abt it bc #privacy.
ppl in his school definitely remember him as a very chill, nice, kinda quiet cool guy. just a decent fellow. generally positive opinions abt him. it’s not like anyones like oh my GOD where is he now and constantly actively thinking abt him, but if you ask about him ppl are definitely gonna be like oh dang i loved that guy i hope he’s doing good now! if he ever showed up to a reunion there wouldn’t be a single person who wasn’t happy to see him again and say hi, but it’s not like he’d like. be getting followed around or anything. which like good for him. he values his privacy. good for him that ppl respect that.
loves his fruity drinks. not a beer guy in the slightest. if a drink does not at all taste alcoholic and just tastes like a juice or something but has like 75% abv he’s into it. not a lightweight at all though. big fan of daiquiris especially frozen or blended. like i said, a sweet toothed motherfucker

dimitri actively sabotaging suzy’s attempts to eavesdrop on the activity club is 1) hilarious, obviously, but also 2) actually really uhhh Really Good?? his reasons for leaving the club may have been complicated but he’s still loyal enough to them to care about upholding their confidentiality, even if he evidently doesn’t even talk to any of them anymore? it kinda makes me wonder if maybe the whole reason he even joined the journalism club was specifically to stop suzy from learning and publishing any of their secrets ??
#retag later#pn blogging#talkin bout pnat#tag ref#actually dimitri's whole entire thing in ch5 is really really interesting#it's implied that he has some kind of struggle with fear relating to all the like spirits & stuff involved w/ being in the activity club#which probably played a part in why he left (im assuming the incident w/ isaac was like a ''last straw'' kind of deal)#but then he gets carried away in the hitball game & like actually gets really into it w/ the strategy & trying to stop hijack#bc obviously he must have recognized that smth supernatural was going on like. he coulda just been like ''not my business'' & let#isabel & the gang handle it but instead he gets involved & properly invested???#And Then he gets rly into the eavesdropping thing too??? his face when he puts down the headset after hearing the situation & their plan#it's literally like in the 1st incredibles movie when bob (bob? bob) is listening in to the police radio bc he misses being a hero & wants#the rush of those glory days back??? it's like dimitri has all these hangups abt why he can't be in the club anymore but there's something#inside him that still wants it like listening in on the radio is feeding that thing while also keeping him on the sidelines where he's safe#maybe joining the journalism club was his meager attempt at still contributing#bc the activity club is something he really does care about and while being in it was too overwhelming maybe this is something he can do#or who knows maybe im just over speculating or i could be way off base!! //obligatory disclaimer in case im wrong LMAO#either way im v curious to know how suzy doesn't know dimitri was in the activity club or if she does how in the world did he#convince her that he doesn't know anything. exactly how long ago did dimitri leave the club. i need answers#in conclusion dimitri is a Mysterious and Good boy and i love him. the end

life is strange true colours review
the non spoilery part: i LOVED this game, my personal fave game this year and the first franchise entry since the original that has really resonated with or moved me.
it's a life is strange game through and through, so if you don't like slice of life episodes or bonding with NPCs, it's not gonna be for you. but if you like the franchise, or even if you liked the first game but haven't been interested in/liked the other two instalments, i recommend giving this one a chance. i think it got closer to figuring out the formula while still doing something new and interesting.
more detailed spoilers and opinions:
alex
holy shit i love alex? bisexual chad... my darling... i'm gonna be real, a lot of the trailers and promo for this game made me worried she'd be kind of a dull wallflower Soft Girl character, but she's not! she's so funny, and even parts of her characterization i initially thought were maybe a bit of a stretch ended up making sense as i learned more about her. she stole the show. i straight up forgot how much loving the protag helps enjoyment of these kinds of games lmao ... finally a reason to click on everything in the room: to hear what alex will say about it.
i thought her backstory exploration in ep 5 especially was wonderful and emotive and great. broke my heart and explained so much about her :( baby girl
plot/choices
i loved the mystery. i don't think it was quite as Mysterious as the mystery in lis1, but that was okay, i was still invested in solving it. i also got invested enough in the NPCs around the town to make all the exploration bits really fun. i loved eavesdropping on the sagas of the random NPCs like bald man and ice cream couple... just fun little touches and narratives to follow that i enjoyed.
i really appreciated this script not being afraid to shy away from some messier emotions, even if in some cases i wish we spent more time on them. for example: alex feeling a bit jealous of the other people in town that got to know gabe better than her/spend more time with him than she did. or charlotte hating ethan!!! my jaw dropped, i thought that was so good, what a messy but realistic response.
I'm not entirely sure what all the ramifications of different choices are at this point, fresh off my first play. i ended up getting only part of the council to stand with me (eleanor & duckie) while losing pike and charlotte.
i do wish we saw a bit more fallout or exploration of what taking away emotion DOES. i took charlotte's anger, and obviously it meant she didn't stand up for me in the council meeting, but where does she go from there? does she like... ever return to feeling emotions lmao... I also think we probably should've had the opportunity to do that another time, instead of just 2 isolated events -- I think Diane would've been a good candidate.
the romance
i romanced steph, ofc, but i was surprised during the game how drawn i was to ryan too -- i really liked that Drama of him being the one who cut Gabe free, as well as later the drama of him being Jed's son. UNTIL HE DIDN'T BELIEVE ME... that made me mad lmfao, i have to learn what to do to make him believe me before i play a Ryan route bc i'll kill him lmfao.
the steph/alex romance was sweet... it didn't really, like, Consume Me as a ship, but by the end of the game I was still "aww"ing at their moments in the flashforward. steph was more rounded and flawed than i thought she might be, which i really appreciated! i was worried they'd just make her perfect idealized gf, but she has a bit of a temper and is kind of tempestuous and stuff... liked it. loved her standing up for alex so fiercely and immediately at the council meeting <3 and my main reservation about her in ep 4 was that i wanted alex to stay in haven, so when she offered to stay i was thrilled LOL
one semi-complaint i had was that something i loved so much about lis1 was how max and chloe's relationship was central to the entire game and story, it wasn't some extra thing on the side, it WAS the game... whereas here, the romance routes, especially steph's, felt like sidequests. I wish they'd found a way to incorporate those relationships a bit more into the main goings-on. I also wanted to spend more time with either romance option to feel like I knew them better -- splitting the time between Steph and Ryan means that I came away feeling like I didn't get quite as much of either of them as I would've liked, vs spending almost the entire game with Chloe lol.
however, this ended up not really bothering me too much because I DID really like the core mystery and themes, the exploration of grief and Emotion, etc.
other characters
considering everyone knew going into the game that gabe was going to die, i was impressed with how they did it, and how they managed to get me attached to gabe in a mere single episode. it's a tall order to introduce a character designed to die, who your audience KNOWS is going to die, and still make them work.
i thought this supporting cast was ... maybe the strongest in the franchise? or at least, they created scenarios where i felt invested in multiple people in the town, and was genuinely trying to build decent relationships with most of them. duckie cracked me tf up, i liked eleanor and riley, even diane and jeb were good for their roles. (fuck pike. i signed ur stupid thing and left your emotions alone and you still won't do shit? ACAB!!!) the choice to stay in haven or leave was a little harder than i expected honestly, considering how quickly i let arcadia bay burn to the ground lmfao.
gameplay/etc
also i know the whole internet has been dunking on "empathy" as a super power since the game was announced, and i get that it sounds corny and looks corny in the trailers, but i thought how they did it was really cool. i wish they'd branded it "Mindreading" more than empathy tbh because a lot of the cooler elements of it are more along those lines... using her power to manipulate people, potentially taking people's emotions away and what that does to them... very interesting imo!
i really liked the memory feature!!! cool way to give us character exposition and inform the story while encouraging exploration. finally a collectible that like, expands the story, instead of chloe drawing butts on the wall and sean taking 10 years to draw something.
it's definitely the most evolved-feeling LIS game, which it should be, given it's the newest. graphics looked really nice, loved getting to see the characters actually emote, even if there are still some scenes that were a lil comically blank-faced -- usually NPCs. i actually noticed this with Jed the most, which in retrospect maybe was somewhat intentional?
i had a number of visual glitches, nothing major but a little silly, like T-posing Alex, npcs t-posing in the windows, etc. i'm sure they'll get patched out soon.
anyway... i rly liked this game, i'm excited for the steph dlc and finally feel like i have reason to be optimistic about future LIS instalments. hooray!

guess what I have a whoooole bunch of autistic/adhd!hickory hcs :3c bc i got to ramble abt it and now i’m gonna throw them here real quick-- (under the cut bc this got l o n g)
audio processing is wonky. he's p good at focusing on ppl he's talking to but always feels so awkward bc he can hear conversations happening across the room no hes not eavesdropping he can just hear it that's a l l v good for intel gathering tho
on the subject of accidental eavesdropping... hickory was rly proud when he realized he could use it for gathering info on marks. he accidentally overheard someone making plans in a bar and told dickory, who was rly baffled and amazed that hickory managed to hear that over the din of the bar, which made hickory realize That's Not Super Common and then he felt a little bit better abt it after bc he felt super awkward abt it before
object permanence gets weird w adhd. for example, out of sight out of mind is just a general truth. this boy has to keep things in front of him/in his awareness or hes just like '...wait does that thing exist.' so he doesn't have much in the way of stuff he doesnt use often and tends to rebuild less common items he might need bc he forgot them somewhere lol
this unfortunately can extend to relationships :( trips to lonesome flats can make him feel a little bit emotionally distant from his new friends/partners in pop village... and visa versa during trips to pop village and w friends/family in lonesome flats
hickory uses coffee as a form of self-medication, since the caffeine helps him calm down and focus. he gets weird when he doesn’t get to drink it. it’s also his special interest!! he loves talking abt coffee and could do it for ages 
dickory Does Not understand how coffee doesnt make hickory jittery. he just has one cup and gets all jumpy, meanwhile hickory feels the most chill hes been all day w his first cup. dickory would probably stop drinking coffee w minimal downsides except that hickory keeps automatically making him a cup every day and it tastes rly good so
he prefers drinking coffee in the evening/night bc it helps him sleep. another reason dickory is constantly ??? abt how hickory isnt just bouncing off the walls, esp since when hickory was younger and not old enough for coffee yet he was an absolute nightmare to try and get to sit still
time blindness is a thing and hickory personally measures time in his music and cooking times as opposed to... an actual system of time. hug bracelets are actually super useful as a tool to train time awareness since they go off every hour and he gets mildly weirded out when he realizes he knows when it's gonna go off, since hes not normally so great at that kind of thing
hyperfocuses on construction projects. great for finishing big things in one go. not great for remembering to eat food/sleep. dickory tends to have to drag him away when he's been sitting and carving for 14 hours
hes not super great at volume control but since he grew up yodeling he's much better at it than he might have been. he tends to either be slightly soft spoken or VERY LOUD
usually v good at reading ppl but also tends to overcorrect abt making sure they heard/understood him, partially bc of the soft spokenness, partially bc english is his second language, partially bc he knows he leans on metaphors/idioms a lot
oh yeah he does that too!! its just easier to make a metaphor/simile/idiom that ppl already know and have context for rather than try and explain himself. makes him seem very good at being succinct. however sometimes he mixes up german and country ones and sometimes ppl dont know them at all and he gets stuck in a rambly loop attempting to explain himself... more than just branch have gotten a little snappy and went "ok yes i get it"
loves chewing on stuff. doesnt normally chew too hard but oh my god there is always smth in his mouth unless he's talking. dickory ends up reusing old habits of handing off things that ur allowed to chew on when he starts helping w clampers, tho he quickly figures out he has to give her much tougher things than hickory ever needed
hickory ends up sharing a lot of stims w his friends/family/partners bc he was like 'i use them for self comfort i can help them out by teaching them right?' and now sometimes he just ends up grinning when he sees them mirroring smth he does bc yes it did help them :)
hickory usually holds onto his belt/suspenders when he's thinking/embarrassed and can get a little anxious if he ends up not having anything to grab onto. putting his hands on his hips works but its like... not rly good enough, in his opinion

Sympathy
SHIP: Negaduck x Flim (as told by Darkwing Duck himself)
WORDS: 753
WARNINGS: vague mentions of injury/hospitals
A/N: hi guys I wrote a negaflim thing but like. from the perspective of Drake Mallard (aka Darkwing Duck) bc I think it was funner this way. Reblogs appreciated, i didnt rly check for errors or even reread it I jsut. went for it. also bc I was writing from Drake’s perspective it was a lot of fun to pretend like I was writing for an episode of the show or something
-------------------------
    It was shocking, really - maybe more shocking than I'd ever seen before. If anyone had told me it happened, I wouldn't have believed them, and don't even think I'd let them finish such an absurd theory about a masked terror of crimson twilight such as Negaduck...But here we were! Negaduck, of all cruel cohorts of malice, was being a...Well, er, I think he'd hate it if I called him a hero, but he certainly acted pretty courageous out there...Though admittedly, the trouble was his fault to begin with, so I can't give the pesky perpetrator of pure pillaging too much credit for his own problems! Yep, yep, he's rotten to the bone...
    But he still saved someone's life that day.
    I walked into the hospital room to see the darker cladded figure sitting in a chair beside a white sheeted bed. In the bed was a flamingo - feathers burned, bandages secure - and the figure concerned over their well-being was not even looking over as I entered. I wondered, for a moment, if he even knew I was there.
    "Come to mock me?" mumbled the villain after a moment, "Yeah, go for it. I don't have anymore answer for Dirtwing Duck than I did the other losers."
    "Losers?" I blinked. "O-Oh, you mean the Fearsome Five- er, four -"
   "I meant the dimwits who couldn't even be bothered to follow orders!" Now he looked over, and with a glare, and my hair stood on end. His teeth, which were sharp for whatever evil reason I never looked into, were bared at me. But...Then he looked back at the flamingo character. I relaxed only slightly.
    Silence again.
    "...Well, erm. Ahem, I'd best let you get back to it then, hm?" I bit my bottom beak and avoided looking at him. "I'll catch you around..."
    No reply. I stealthy slipped out of the room, but this was not the end of the tale. I may not be a person to participate in eavesdropping on a normal, harmless hospital visit...But nothing was harmless when it came to Negaduck. With the help of Launchpad, I'd just get into the vents! No biggie!
    "Eerrr, I dunno, D.W." Launchpad apparently felt it was quite a biggie, and scratched his head. "Should you really be snoopin' on them? Is that really super heroic of you to intervene with someone's love life?"
   "Yes!" I exclaimed with frustration, tying a rope to my waist. "And DON'T call it a love life! If ANYONE loved Negaduck, they must be deranged...Now let's get in these conveniently sized vents and get this over with!"
    "Whatever you say, D.W," Launchpad shrugged, and helped me up into a vent opening. I barely fit! If only Gosalyn was here...No, she'd probably be against eavesdropping too - or maybe she'd encourage it. Never knew WHAT to expect with that bundle of duckling joy...But crawling along, trying to keep my grunts to a minimum, I found the - hopefully - correct room with Negaduck inside...And peered down into the room.
     He hadn't moved an inch...What a dastardly deed indeed! All right, well, maybe it wasn't so dastardly. He looked different than I'd seen him before...Okay, yeah, same fetching hat and cape - not as fetching as yours truly's, of course ...And the hat was off, placed on the side of his chat...But he looked normal. Evilly so...And yet something felt off about the look in his eyes.
    Was it hatred? Malice? Cunningness? Wit? Or was it...softness? Either way, I don't think even he knew. But then ....
   "Mmh...N...Negaduck?" The flamingo was waking up. Her eyes fluttered and she winced. "W-what are you...Where..."
   He hesitated visibly. "Relax, Flim. You're safe."
   "...I-I...what happened?"
   "...I messed up, that's what happened." He pinched his temple a bit, shaking his head. Still, he reached for his hat. "You're safe. That's what matters."
   "W...wait..."
   Was he getting up? He hadn't budged from that chair in days! But Flim, whom I expertly deduced was the flamingo here, gently reached to grab his coat sleeve. He blinked at them. "...What?"
    "...Y-you saved me...Th-Thank you..."  I don't think I'll ever forget Negaduck's eyes widening at those words. But he left - out the door, not with a weapon's blast or something. He just...left....Just as shocking as him helping this flamingo, he was shockingly shutting them out after all this...Well, I'd just have to be the judge of that!
   Maybe Launchpad was onto something here...You know, the whole "Love" thing....Eh, I guess it's not my business. Darkwing Duck has better things to do than review a romantic comedy!

@astralglam​​​​ filed a report .
mint: does your muse view themself as virtuous & moral? what do these words mean to them?
OHOHO. hey hi ily. this is, of course, one of odo’s deepest ongoing battles, and the moment he stops questioning it is the moment he becomes a founder.
the founders grant themselves god status.  GOD!  status. they just reach out and pluck it. Within their range of power, the founders become unquestionably Just and Virtuous and Moral, their Word becomes Law, it becomes “the way things are” and “fact” and they create their own reality stemming from thousands of years of intense xenophobia. they’re above it all. gods don’t make mistakes, right? sure, maybe changelings were hunted and feared ages ago but they still fear it, and that drive for Order and Control over the galaxy is now encoded into their genes and they place a companion structure into the genes of every other species they control, subjugating them to the founders’ own cozy position as Gods, or-- ‘gods’. the founder (i rly don’t like saying “female” founder so she’s THE Founder. she speaks for the link.) makes it quite clear on many occasions that the founders are not here to negotiate. they fully intend to control EVERYTHING at any cost. it is absolutely  chilling  when she cuts garak down with: “they’re dead. you’re dead. cardassia is dead.” and draws the line between the dominion and everyone else miles deep into the sand.
that same genetic coding is one of the first semi-concrete things odo comes to understand about himself and, horribly, he’s landed into conditions under the occupation that very easily could have taken advantage of a less meticulous or stubborn changeling. no, odo says initially (and incorrectly), i am not bajoran** and i am not cardassian and i stand apart from either side of this conflict and so i am bound to PURE Virtue and Morality because of it. he can’t be bribed or bought or won over, and he won’t allow for anything less than a kind of incorruptibility. this effectively wins him allies (and enemies) on both sides, however -- that’s just not how the universe works. the truth of it is that no matter how much he tells himself he is not a part of their regime, his working with the cardassians makes him a collaborator in that he has then recognized their authority and ultimately upheld their legitimacy, even if he never agreed with the cause, even if he was also on some level a casualty of it. at some point when he moves past ‘contract’ investigation and begins to work permanently, he falls into the trap of thinking Order is the same thing as Justice... huge yikes. in that moment he becomes a true and apathetic villain, but he’s subsequently haunted by the resulting execution of innocents. it shakes something up in him. years pass and he still wonders, what other mistakes has he made? what other less direct consequences of his ‘neutral’ arbitration exist? he (and everyone around him) has to live without really knowing, and it’s a constant reminder to him of the power he holds and it informs his understanding of what Real (and imperfect) Justice Means.
**sidenote but later in s7 he introduces himself as ‘from bajor’ and AAAAAA. its good. very good. yeah, you’re bajoran, odo. he gets it now.
Mirror odo is really the ultimate example of an odo having taken those instincts to extremes in an environment that rewarded him for them -- there is no guilt there, and even a sadistic kind of pleasure in it. i’d argue that gaia!odo is another, less extreme example of an odo who’s been alone too long and lost sight of things when he single-mindedly (and against kira’s wishes) chooses her (one person) over 8000. like holy shit? NOT ok? uhhuhhhhfff. anyway. very fortunately, neither of these are OUR odo, but act as great foils to reflect on the worst (bastard cop) qualities or potential qualities of our goo pushed to highly visible extremes, which star trek just loves to do all the time.
but regular/prime odo isnt exactly a rule-follower, either. throughout his life, he frequently takes things into his own hands, uses his abilities to his advantage, spies, wiretaps, eavesdrops, and yes, harasses [quark] sometimes -- he develops his own set of values and personal rules and follows them; even starfleet comes in wary of him and how he operates and hes on thin ice. but because of possibly his most redeeming quality, odo is able to adapt those self-ordained values toward something increasingly honest: for how rigid he can be in personality, he is HIGHLY influenced by the world around him,  listens hard  to what his friends and allies have to say and adapts that feedback; this allows him to evolve and grow and take important matters to heart. he becomes more flexible and better able to hold onto what’s really most important after locking into a decision, because above all else, he is passionately committed to doing the Right Thing. he PLEADS with himself in things past, “your job is to find the truth, not obtain convictions.” by his tendency to push back against what is laid down as ‘law’ (something he becomes more and more aware of and effective at doing) as not always being good or right, or necessarily even creating Order (the thing he’s driven genetically to want), he prepares himself to challenge the most deadly voice of authority -- that of his own people.
so... yes and no. odo’s role and persona as ‘your average security chief’ might dictate that he be virtuous and moral, but he so obviously can’t fit the same exact mold as others in his position -- he has these insane abilities and this mind-consuming nature and it requires he tread with extra care, but he also has a potential for more adaptive, more nuanced morality. he has to build up his own definitions to the words, constantly examine and tease and test them, or else he risks straying too far from what he really wants to achieve -- harmony, honest justice. he has to accept that he’s a part of the system he operates in (not, in fact, alone or isolated! something he actually wants), and know that he is not exempt from making the wrong choice, just like anybody else.
carnation: what is your muse’s relationship with their gender? how do they express or not express this relationship?
ODO AND GENDER!!! i love odo and gender. let’s take this one step at a time. he starts out as an amorphous glob -- he has no gender. there’s no basis for assignment, no culture of difference, and all the goos are goo. odo takes on the shape of the first living thing he sees / the thing he sees most frequently: dr mora. he adopts an image of masculinity from mora and he adopts the hair. that’s about it, and it’s pretty much arbitrary. (maybe the hair is simple enough for his skills, too?) the next people odo meets are also these very masculine, military, cardassian leaders, so again -- this is all he knows! this is neutrality. i imagine it takes him some time to work out what the differences in gender are, and sex, and orientation, romantic vs sexual stuff, all of that. it’s all got cultural baggage he knows nothing about and does not experience, and he’s also dealing with multiple, clashing cultures to boot. since he doesnt have any strong inherent leaning, he simply opts out. he/him becomes his default because thats where he started, thats what he’s been able to successfully present and how people know him, and, terrifyingly, under cardassian rule, it probably offered a bit of safety, too, which was obviously something he needed at the time.
way way way way way down the line in season seven, odo asks kira to (paraphrasing) look at me. what do you see? [i see you.] but this is NOT me, this is only a shape ive assumed in order to fit in. she says, yes, i know that. but this is who you have chosen to be. “a man. a good and honest man.” (i knowww shes not really talking abt gender here BUT) its hard as a trans person not to read the metaphor. he’s chosen to express SOMETHING. he’s chosen something other than what he was given (neutrality) and although he doesnt personally buy into what ‘masculinity’ “should be” (ie the ferengi, smh) / would certainly not argue he doesnt feel non-binary, this is how he has presented all his life, its how hes been treated, and it is what he has chosen to adhere to. there’s a choice in that, kira’s right, and now it reflects something about him.
parallel this, i’ll mention the “female” founder again bc of course there is no discernable reason for her to have a gender -- other than to appeal (im not talking sexually here although there’s,, obviously weird shit happening with the link... yike) to odo in the sense that until that point odo has lived with “gendered” individuals and, i think importantly, kira is with them when they first meet. i think its safe to say the founder saw her, figured she was a friend/ally to odo or at least familiar to him, and took her general representation to appeal as a friend/ally.
otherwise... why, honestly? the founder’s got NO love of humanoids lmao why would she bother.
anyway i’d like to see odo experiment a bit. because when hes safe, he can!! aside from his own doubts and insecurities about shapeshifting, at some point he really has no reason not to, at least a little bit. really, it should just be another thing to practice, much like becoming a convincing rock or a leaf, its just that there are other significances in the cultures around him. i’d just like to see him loosen up a little. have fun. grow ur hair out a bit, odo, why are u still looking like ur terrible dad.

This whole "he gets me" narrative is only because he's a creep who's managed to be omnipresent in all aspects of your life -, he eavesdrops, he shape shifts and eavesdrops, and the sleeping under the covers thing is unwarranted too. I know the show isn't supposed to be interpreted that deeply, but it's promoting a highly unhealthy level of codependence. He exists solely because of her, and without her, he's seemingly devoid of purpose. LOL how is that romantic.
omg you are so right - he doesn’t rly get her, he just literally hears what she’s saying when he’s a cat lmao.  btw as an aside i’m having flashbacks to when do kyung eavesdropped on hae young in another oh hae young grrr
I don’t mind the sleeping under the covers things but it does bring up issues abt consent imo
Plus the joke abt neutering was hilarious but hi how can you have a show against cat hoarding but also be kind of subtly anti-neutering or like, making light of neutering? 
*sigh* this show is so problematic but I can’t stop watching lmao

Gosh, you’re so inspiring. I’ve been reading your work and following your blog for a while now. You’ve been helping keep me on track for NaNoWriMo with your posts too haha. I was wondering, do you have any tips for writing dialogue? I’ve done research on how to write it and reread my fav books for inspiration but I always feel my characters are so bland at the end? And then the thought of that is so overwhelming lol. Thank you for listening either way. :)
oh hell Yeah nano buddy !!!
uhh dialogue is wildly difficult for me, i find not-dialogue to be so much easier ! that being said, it’s smth im keen to develop so the two things i usually keep in mind is:
a) people very rarely talk to what they actually want to say.
we have secrets & tact & habits & rituals & messy incomplete knowledge & in jokes with people close to us & history & all of that & people say a lot of stuff by bringing up things they “just thought of” or by inching sideways toward a topic or by making pointed digs about someone being untrustworthy/an asshole/etc but never actually saying too much about what they did (rmbr the time they slashed your brothers bicycle tire? - gd, who does that to a nine year old? - he’s genuinely a horrible horrible man).
& b) this isn’t advice on writing dialogue per se, it’s just smth i keep in mind: listen to people around you. eavesdrop. go to a cafe & listen to two friends talk, or people on a date, or someone skype calling their mum. listen to urself when u talk - what are u leaving out? what are u talking around? why do u do it?
humans arent perfect or even necessarily good at talking. a lot of people don’t talk perfectly. a lot of people don’t talk in the same way & especially it is dependant on who we are talking to & in what context. we um & ah & forget words & drop words we don’t need & make jokes & over describe things we really like or that we think the other person would like. maybe they have a stutter or are very shy or it’s not their first language, etc
//
so take this conversation:
“hey, you awake?”
“no.”
“hm. didn’t realise you were a sleep talker.”
(yawn) “runs in the family.”
“... you know rachael, from the store?”
“... i do know rachael from the store. she’s very pretty.”
“oh yes, i definitely would talk about how pretty another woman is in my marriage bed, that’s what i always think really makes my wife happy. all i was gonna say is that she’s a sleepwalker.”
“know that from personal experience, do you?”
“jesus fuckin—she told me it stopped when her husband of nine years whom she loves very much sleeps in the same bed with her every night but it still happens every time he goes away on trips. and yknow they got a kid,”
“just got one outta the store.”
“picked up a brand spankin’ new laddy.”
“for the low low price of seventeen ninety five you too can have a bouncing baby boy. they eat, shit, and sleep and with new features appearing randomly on the daily like crawling frighteningly fast and babbling like they’re talking to someone but there’s no one there and it makes you think your place is haunted, you’ll never know what happens next!”
“no two babies are the same! this one comes pre-installed with a sensitivity to bees, nature’s hardest worker, and enjoys mischief mayhem and smearing his mushy food all over the walls.”
(laugh) “ok what about their bundle of poopy joy? rachael’s, I mean”
“Hmm? oh yeah, hes just learned to walk, yknow, and he’s started to sleep walk too. they’ve found him all over the place. bathroom. staircase. now that actually runs in the family.”
“Huh. cool, I guess?”
“...are you going back to sleep?”
“i was going to try but i guess it depends on if you’re gonna let me. ... anna?”
“yeah. yeah, go to sleep. sorry.”
“are you going to sleep?”
“of course, yeah.” (a Look.) “im fine, love. it’s not like last time. i just...there are a lot of thoughts in my head right now.”
“you? an over thinker? never would’ve guessed.”
“well i try to dumb myself down for you, y’see”
“you do an incredible job of it.”
“cheers.”
“like, a real bang up job”
“you can stop at any time”
“sometimes i think oh boy this lady has nothing in her head at all”
“you are such an asshole” (laugh) “go to sleep”
“you gonna join me?”
“i think I’m gonna go to the study, actually. read through a boring case and try to fall asleep on the couch, okay?”
“...okay. i love you”
//
so forgive me bc it’s early & i don’t actually have a story for this but the subtext of the conversation is that she has insomnia maybe or she’s too anxious to sleep & her wife is trying to sleep & trying to help her to sleep. but there’s no point in talking about things like “have u tried counting sheep” etc bc this is clearly (hopefully) smth that has happened before & they already know those things don’t work. gentle teasing in place of advice to let her wife know that she knows what is going on, to let her know that it’s okay. because she doesn’t know how to rly help her or what to do
so yeah hopefully this was fun to read & maybe helped? it’s by no means perfect advice, just some stuff i have heard & that i use for my own stories. i also find it helps sometimes if im stuck in a scene to write a stripped down version where they aren’t talking around their problem or secret & see what they might want to say. it helps for getting character motivation clear in ur head so it comes through in the proper dialogue. for the previous convo it might be smth like:
“I can’t sleep”
“What do you need?”
“I don’t know”
“I can’t help you and I’m sorry. I love you”
“I know. I’m going to go somewhere else to not sleep so I don’t disturb you”
//
anyway! have fun nano buddy!! may your dialogue flow easily ! may your characters not fight Too Much as you set them on the page !

pretzels. (boyfriend!au)
ft. kim jungwoo, younger siblings and a safe word for “save me”.
when you started going out with jungwoo, your younger siblings / younger friends were even more excited then u were
bc he was the nicest and kindest and most considerate guy in the world
ok no lie he was nicer than u and he was kinder to your friends too lol
i don’t blame him honestly he just wanted to make a good impression on your friends who he knew meant a lot to u
even tho they can be ... quite a handful sometimes..
the first few months were okay because your friends were still on that.,, getting to know him stage,, so they were quite shy
until once u were like
oh boy u regret it now
but u were like
a bit tired of how they always came to you for requests and favours
like hey can u help me with this homework,,, or hey can u pick me up after school bc my parents are too busy...
so u were like
ok here is my boyfriend’s number, just ask him to help u bc i’m rly busy
it started off good, bc like i said, jungwoo wanted to be friends with your friends too!!
and your friends were like WOW...... IT a BOY hHhHhHhh
and jungwoo was like ᵒᵐᵍ ᶦᵗˢ ᵐʸ ᵇᵃᵇʸ'ˢ ᵇᵃᵇʸ ᶠʳᶦᵉⁿᵈˢ ʰʰʰʰʰᴴᴴʰᴴᴴʰ
u liked seeing them get along well too
UNTIL,,,,
a few weeks later
whenever u were like
hey jungwoo can we hang out this saturday i finally finished my assignments for now
and he goes
“oh ... oh no i promised your friend.. the one who always wear pigtails? i promised her i’d take her to the mall for the uh, claire’s big discount sale”
“... did you just turn me down bc u have a date with my 7 year old friend..”
after much persuasion from jungwoo your 7 year old friend finally let u tag along
she was looking forward to spend the whole afternoon with jungwoo bc he was nice and he smiled and gave his genuine opinion on stuff
and he’d buy bubble tea for her just to see her smile kjdsnf he was soft for that kinda thing
ʲᵘⁿᵍᵘʷᵘ
he wasn’t like u who scolded them every other minute, for spending too much money and wasting time
basically they hated u at times bc u were such a mOM.
so anyway at the mall date outing, when the 7 year old was busy browsing through some necklaces at the sale, you pulled jungwoo aside
your friend was little but she eavesdrop on stuff a lot
so when the store manager wasn’t looking you pulled jungwoo into the small storage room at the back
and he’s like
slightly panicked
and he kept licking his lips bc he was nervous and also he forgot to wear your favourite chapstick
the one u really liked the flavour of
because he thought u stole him aside because u wanted to kiss him lol poor baby im sorry u just wanted to talk loolol
"we need a safe word...”
“for? what?”
“for when you can’t stand my friends anymore... and you want me to tell them to back off.”
“oh... it’s okay. they’re really cute and i don’t mind”
“you’ll change your mind after two months, wanna bet?”
“huh? oh.. it’s really okay, baby.”
“okay just in case you change your mind... just... tell me that u want some pretzels and i’ll get it.”
he laughs. “okay then.“
u reminded him about the secret code for a distress call almost everyday and he’s like yep no worries i’m good rn
then before u know it two months fly by
you still get to spend a lot of time with him during the week
but as the semester rolls by you both get busier and busier w studies
he still helps your little friends with the little favours and stuff and he still likes them with his full heart but
but whevenr he goes hang out with them he noticed how reluctant u were to join and that small crestfallen look on your face when u think that he and your friends prolly enjoy each others’ company more than yours,
made him worried fr
so he called u one evening
u were walking home from a night class
and y’all chat about bland things until he goes
“i miss you.”
and you’re like pft come on we talk everyday and we spend our weekends together
and he’s like :(
“but it hasn’t been.. just us.. in a long time..”
cUE SOME SMIRKING
u were like
hHEHEHE
u decide to play w him a little
“but too bad my little sisters like you so, so much and you seem to like them too and they’ll be disappointed if jungwoo oppa can’t come and play with them anymore”
he goes silent for a while and u could tell he strugglin’
“i... i guess i just want some pretzels...”
he added quickly “just for a while?”
“and how long is your while, baby?”
“um, one month?”
you think about it.
one whole month where you get jungwoo all to yourself again
yeah of course what the heck he was your boyfriend after all
literally that night you phoned your friends to say jungwoo was super busy this next month so they weren’t able to find him
cue some sulky sad depresso 7 year olds but wtv!!! they’ll live!!!
also
jungwoo that headass
he came over to your place and packed a bag of your stuff w all necessities and basically kidnapped u for a few days
netflix every night until y’all both fell asleep!!
lots and lots of cuddling and spooning and soft shit
on nights without netflix y’all lay in the dark and talked about whatever came to mind
his favourite place was the crook of your neck
tickled u hella but u let him bc u liked being the small spoon
felt safe and protected uwu
he smelt nice after showers too
he doesn’t wear cologne but u know that very fresh laundry and soft cotton soap smell
yeah that’s jungwoo and it was so warm and soft
waking up in the mornings you’d find that he hadn’t moved at all and was still spooning u
tbh he’d usually be up before u so when you turn your head he’d attack u w kisses
hug u a bit tighter until you start laughing bc he always said the first thing he wanted to hear in the mornings was your cute little laugh
you’d go to the library together to “study”
u being the kind of college student who don’t wnana delay graduation and longer than it should be, worked diligently
but your mans kim jungwoo was willing to risk it all
you’d look up everyone few min or so and he’d be just looking dreamily at u
w a small silly grin on his face
his eyes go a little softer around the edges like he was looking at smth absolutely gorgeous and cute
u kick him under the table shyly
and he gently kicks u back
and y’all nudge each other back and forth until u couldn’t stand it anymore and drags him out of the quiet area
there’s a fire emergency staircase next to the toilets around the back of the library where people rarely go
before u could fully make sure there weren’t anyone lurking around the area he’s already backing u against the wall and kissing u
hhhhh
one of his hands is against the wall just above your ear and the other hand is on your chin
meanwhile your hands are everywhere tho
and he loves it
awkwardly stops when some lost first year kid come walking up the stairs only to immediately dash back down again hhh
gave u an excuse to hide against his chest
made him giggle a bit uwu
but then lifted your chin up and dove back in :)
anyway :)) after y’all finish :)) making out :)) you head back to your desks like nothing happened :))
some people stare though
at jungwoo’s tousled hair and bright red cheeks
and at your swollen lips and shifty eyes :))
when the one month come to an end it feels like coming home from a honeymoon really
bc everything goes back to normal and your friends are ringing him up again
but you didn’t mind because it’s only gonna be a matter of time before jungwoo comes back and asks for pretzels again uwu

𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙛𝙞𝙡𝙚
Tumblr media
real name — Rock Holmes or Rokuro Makube. single or taken — Since there’s no active Black Jack rpers and there probably never will be one that ships MakuJa because it’s only really a popular ship in the JP fandom I default to Rock being single but longing for his childhood friend Kuroo Hazama better known as Black Jack. I also have a ship with @silverhearted-robin-hood​ tho and it’s rly cute abilities or powers — Unbeknownst to him Rock is a spirit medium, or in layman’s terms he’s a magnet for the supernatural. Since he’s unaware this also means he has no control over said abilities which leads to him being bothered by ghosts and demons and the like a lot. He’s also really perceptive, a master of disguise, a professional liar, and pretty skilled in combat.
eye color — A very striking shade of blue, that would likely be the first thing people noticed about him if he wasn’t blind hair color — As a child he had dirty blonde hair that got darker with age. At this point it’s basically black.
family members — Currently he’ll tell you he doesn’t have any. His bio parents died when he was really young and his adoptive father later disowned him.
pets — I am still on the fence about whether Nadare is canon here or not so right now I will say none. He is VERY into the exotic pet scene tho
something they don’t like — a lot of things honestly but the first that comes to mind is rich business moguls and the capitalist society that enables them to exploit workers to death
hobbies / activities — Reading comics, investigating cold cases and supposed supernatural sightings, collecting pinups and dirty magazines, drag, blackmail, exotic pets, and he’s apparently a car enthusiast too.
ever hurt anyone before — Oh absolutely. Rock was prone to violent outbursts from a very young age due to coping with the death of his parents very poorly, but was further encouraged to hurt others by his father who got him into the business of blackmail and underground crime so he didn’t have to get his own hands dirty. This led to him eventually joining the mafia and eventually taking over as head for a bit during his time in Paris before dipping for his own safety.
ever killed anyone before — I’ve always been on the fence about this but honestly? yes.
animals that represent them — birds and werewolves seem to be the common recurring animals in the meta context.
worst habits — Objectively the one he’s most infamous for is being a chronic liar, but he’s got a whole laundry list of issues. Smoking, binge drinking, sleeping around, gambling, eavesdropping, ect.
role models — As a kid he was absolutely obsessed with his father to a point where others found it strange but as of current I don’t think he has any besides, uh, himself? Like he’s really vain lmao. He does see Black Jack as an equal tho I feel that’s worth mentioning
sexual orientation — He’s the Gay Coded Villain of your dreams
thoughts on marriage / kids — He’s legit just never thought about it. If brought up he’d probably say he’s not fit for it tho
style preferences — Suit and tie, a lot of 60s and 70s fashion as that’s when most of his books were written and take place. Can see him being pretty into Larme Kei too. Also every outfit from the gag manga is canon.
someone they love — not to further push the MakuJa agenda here but he genuinely loves BJ so much it’s unreal.
approach to friendships — His approach is to generally avoid people because they all just leave anyway so what’s the point? He won’t be outright rude most of the time but he’s rarely genuine or close with people.
favourite drink — Coffee, and probably some alcohols i have not drinken cuz i only like the fruity shit. He also likes the fruity shit tho.
favourite place to spend time at — The local library or the local bar take your pick!
swim in the lake or the ocean — I have legit never thought about it? Guess the ocean.
their type — Rock’s super duper ideal type is someone he has a genuine connection with but that’s unrealistic so let’s lower the standards, big beefy men and bears that who will submit to his every order thank u.
camping or indoors — Indoors he hates getting dirty lmao
tagged by — @bup1957​ thank you!
tagging — Everyone I know has already been tagged or just done it already so I guess if you made it this far it’s your turn

(^:
HENLO!!! this is ur actual bday present, not that Gross thing i sent earlier lol. again, do whatever u want with it!! u dont have to post it or anything. it’s just easier to submit stuff like this than to, idk, send u an email like a señora lol.
ok so im doing this in bullet point format bc the last time I wrote a coherent, well-written paragraph was like 5 years ago or smth. anyway!! since u hated soooo much my beautiful, amazing, unique goths au im going with the loser couple au… which was also a college au of sorts?? dskjhksjdf this isn’t even an au, since y’all are already losers tbh (^: this also got out of hand…. this shit is eight pages long. idk enjoy bithc.
first of all, ck the kind of dude everyone’s lowkey scared of bc he’s silent and serious af. also he does seem kind of a weirdo, tbh?
youve seen him around, maybe you’re in the same dorms but u have absolutely no idea what he’s majoring in :o and u ask around but no one has any idea either!! oh wow a mystery~~
BUT he’s kinda cute hmmm (^: and u probably find the weirdo vibe interesting
however it’s so hard to get to talk to him. u always run into him when you’re out with friends or in a hurry to get to class so :///
but destiny works in mysterious ways~~~ and once u meet it’s rly. so unexpected.
actually, it’s awful since u get locked out of ur dorm sound familiar?? during winter break, rly late at night after a long study session at the library yes, the library, fight me. so u kinda just. sit down miserably outside ur room, since ur roommates are gone, cursing everything and everyone. u will eventually go looking for someone to help u out or smth but right now u need to Whine.
but oh my!! enter mister im changkyun!!! that weirdo who actually lives a couple of doors away from u (how come you never found out wtf???)
he sees u basking in ur misery and actually. finds u rly cute??? bc you’re pouting, cursing a little under ur breath, fumbling with ur phone. but u also look angry as fuck, ready to kill a man??? and yet you’re really fucking cute what the hell!!!!
so he comes up to u and asks u what’s wrong, to which u answer not so nicely without even looking up from ur phone, bc you’re rly so done with this situation ://
but then u look up and u See who it is fuck fuck fuck fuckfucbicvufkhkcfj
but since ck’s Nice and he understands that u must be having an awful time (and also bc he thinks youre cute) he offers to help u. you’re kind of skeptical since he’s just another student, what could he do???
until he tells u he knows how to pick locks lmaoaoaoaoa. that lil weirdo (‘:
anyway he saves ur night. but since he’s an annoying lil shit he’ll tease u abt it every time he runs into u for the rest of winter break.
since that day y'all basiclly become an old, bickering, married couple fnsdjdj
u never stop annoying each other…. you’re wearing a hoodie? he’ll probably pull the hood all the way down until it covers ur eyes, and u get him back by messing up his hair which, by the way,is so soft….. hmmmm
u call each other nerd and loser and dumbass all the time lmao. he’ll constantly bring up the way u met just to jokingly say that you’d be lost without him :/// he rly is a lil shit.
it’s funny bc everyone figures out u are falling for each other… except u two. and i rly do mean everyone. ur friends. his friends. ur roommates. ur cat. the janitor, too, probably. it’s so obvious it hurts.
one time someone implies u would be a cute couple and y'all literally go all ‘no???? haha me??? liking that loser??? pfft not in a million years’
it’s the biggest lie, of course (: and ever since that person suggested u would look good together, both of u kind of realize it’d be… nice. more than nice. actually, super nice.
but since both of u are dumb tsunderes,  as ive said before, u will literally be the embodiment of this scene… except it goes both ways. honestly u are so gone for each other it’s GROSS.
but we need some angst up in here so y'all dont get together for a reaaaaaaally long time :/ smh. the pining is Real. ppl come and go in ur lives, and each person u go out with sees that u already fell for someone else—and that’s why all potential relationships don’t last much–, but sdjkfhksjdhk!!! neither of u want to openly admit it.
it’s A Mess bc u are actually good friends and u tell each other abt ur dates and stuff—secretly hoping the other will do something—but y'all looove being dumb so u act like it’s all cool and be like ‘o rly!! good for u, i hope it works out’. right. :/
y’all keep dancing around each other for several months until one Merciful Soul gets tired of ur shit and forces u to sort things out. im talking abt locking u up in some room and not letting u out until u stop pretending u aren’t disgustingly in love with each other. or smthequally cheesy (: u know ilove cheese
((obviously everyone eavesdrops through the door bc cmon, theyve been waiting for this for sooooo long))
at first u two are just annoyed at the Merciful Soul betchait was minhyuk, and u spend ur time yelling and cursing them for doing this (all while claiming that this is pointless, since u have NO feelings for each other. none. nada!)
after a very long time, it’s ck the one that confesses first lmao. youve been whining and being grumpy the whole time youve been locked up together and it kinda reminded him of the way u met… damn. here come The Feelings.
he’s tired, and there’s nothing left to lose. so he tells u The Truth.
[suspenseful pause….. what’s going to happen next?? :OOOOO]……… tune in next year to find out, in the continuation of Cristina’s Cheesy Birthday Present!!!
jk, proceed to the next bullet point pls.
obviously u tell him u feel the same way [insert ppl crying in the background] and he’s actually shocked when u say u like him back…. and gosh, he does look cute when he’s surprised…
so yeah!!! it’s until then that u FINALLY go on a date during the weekend!!. hallelujah. thanks minhyuk,u beautiful soul.
so!!! ok!! first date!!! a rly cute fairground in the evening!!!
u try to be fake mean to each other like u used to but everything feels different~~~ (^:
so instead y’all act bashful as hell, and blush at everything jjdfghjfhd. hands brushing accidentally?? BLUSH. eyes meeting? BLUSH. BLUSH BLUSH BLUSH!!! u also laugh at everything bc both of u are so nervous oh gmhg fdknjjkdsfjoidf this is gross.
he’ll tell bad jokes to make u laugh and they’re rly so so so bad that he actually keeps u in stitches. if u look rly closely you’ll see his huge ass heart eyes bc !!!! he made u laugh!!!! and u look so pretty when u laugh omg!!!! dis-gos-tinnnnn
it’d be such a cute date tbh im crying just thinking abt it (‘’’’: obviously he’s a gentleman and he lets u choose what to eat, which ride to go to first, etc. u could literally tell him ‘hey let’s just sit down and do nothing’ and he’d say yes. he’s so gONe, ifmgfjdmf.
he’s kinda quiet and a lot shier than u wouldve expected but youre literally melting bc that’s a new side to him that you’d never thought you’d see.
u end up having so much fun (‘: u gross lil idiots, u.
oh and he’s def the type to ask if he can kiss u at the end of the night EYYYYYY
even if u find that incredibly endearing you’ll probably roll ur eyes with a huge ass smile on urlips lmaoaoaoao and call him a dummy for even asking when you’ve literally be in cloud nine since ur date started kjkhwjeqdkwjlk  
[hello, brief break to clarify that from this point i forgot this was actually a college au lmao, so the rest of the bullet points are literally just. random facts abt u two dating hhhhhh. We dont even know what ck’s major is odjfngnfdj]  
at first things are a lil awkward in ur relationship tbh
catch ck googling ‘how to relationship’ on a daily basis dnfndkfjdncn he is sort of clueless abt how to handle The Feelings. mostly bc this is Important and the last thing he wants is to mess it up )^:
that goes away eventually, tho!! he’ll start being his weird little self real fucking soon, so Get Ready
u still call each other nerd and all that stuff, but ur voices are dripping with fondness when u say it… literally everyone around u gets cavities from it, ew.
he’s not that big on planning dates but from time to time he’ll take u to rly cool, unexpected, interesting places :o  and eventually he’ll show u his favorite secret spots ((’:
study dates are a thing. i bet he’s that type of person that enjoys reading in weird ass positions… his legs are like, halfway off the couch and his arm is bent in a way that looks almost painful… what the hell….?? but it’s fine (: it goes so well with ur study methods, those that are Too Weird for the library, yeah?? (:
he will also stare at u a lot bc u look cute when you’re rly focused on smth that is, when u stop  whining abtstudying…
every time u catch him doing that you’ll go all ‘stop staring at me!!! wtf are u looking at u weirdo’ and he’ll answer ‘you’re so pretty~~~ ♥️♥️♥️’. you’ll blush like a lil idiot, naturally (^: hmmmm
and yea, yea. nap dates are a thing too :/// with sleepy forehead kisses and raspy voices and tangled limbs. all that sappy stuff. he’s a lil shit tho, so he’ll sometimes poke ur ribs to tickle u lmao.
buuuut he’ll also take a lot of pics of u sleeping bc he thinks youre cute )))): his faves always end up being his wallpaper for months.
he’ll get strange gifts for u, like rly bizarre plushies and rare books on topics he thinks u will like,  tacky anime memorabilia, etc. he’ll always give them to u at random times bc he just saw them and reminded him of u ♥️  
he makes a lot of playlists for u too!!! pls listen closely, he puts a lot more thought into them than he lets on.
u like his selfies??? well he’ll send u a lot of those. unfortunately, bc he’s a lil shit, he’ll mostly send double chins and weird ass faces from equally weird angles  
from time to time he’ll send u a Nice One tho ((((^: and u know, tongue selfies since youreSO fond of his(and I quote) “5ft tongue”. and oh gosh! is that a tongue piercing…??? eyyyyyy
if u want to take couple selfies then you’re gonna have a real hard time bc he’ll always be making weird faces and poses just to be annoying. eventually u will make dumb faces too tho (’: what a couple of losers
expect weird random texts: he loves telling u abt whatever is on his mind—probably aliens. he thinks a lot abt aliens and the universe. throw some conspiracy theories in there, too—. he’ll also send obscure memes. and a lot of russian cats!!
he’ll love ur cosplay hobbie. he thinks it’s super cool. he’ll call u a nerd but don’t be fooled! he totally brags abt it with his friends (^:
oh! and this is unrelated but at some point y'all will look like an emo goth couple. u won’t even realize that you’re both wearing black and looking Edgy, it’ll just happen spontaneously. tragic 😔
there are a lot of comfortable silences when u hang out, but late night deep convos are also fundamental :o!!! bc y'all are Smort.
he’ll act like f*cboi from time to time tbh?? he’ll tell lots of dirty jokes LMAO. u roll ur eyes at him a lot bc they’re rly. so bad.
if he winks or does Eyebrow Things then u can’t rly roll ur eyes and act like you’re annoyed bc (: u like it (: and u think it suits him (: and he knows it (: (: (:
u get back at him by telling him he’s cute tho, and he’ll get all shy and he’ll stutter and saying “noooooo” while also fighting back a smile
he will also howl or bark at u to annoy u jdfhkjdf. damn f*rry ://
on that note, he loves to embarrass u in front of ur friends bc he’s a lil shit :DD
But he’s also the sweetest??? whenever he sees you’re feeling down he’ll start doing weird shit to make u laugh. if that doesn’t work then he’ll hug u real tight without saying anything else, bc that’s Enough, u know?? (’:
ok time to get Domestic lads!!!
Idk who the hell is going to cook bc y'all are a damn mess in the kitchen. u two try to cook Nice Meals sometimes. seven times out of ten u end up ordering takeout lmao.
be prepared: he sings in the shower, and he does so terribly. (he might do it a little louder and a little more off-key sometimes bc he knows it makes u laugh)
random kisses are a thing!!! he kisses ur cheek or ur shoulder or ur nape or literally. any body part he can get his lips on when u two are just hanging out, watching movies or smth. it’s so soft and cute )^: wtf im crying
but also stolen kisses!! he’ll kiss u at the most unexpected of times and it alwaysleaves u breathless
he’ll constantly put his head on ur shoulder and make this face at u (^:  
can’t sleep??? don’t worry!!! he’ll sing to u with that pretty, soothing voice of his
anyway. what I meant is that y’all would be such cute little idiots together this was long af. wow. im so sorry. happy birthday??? lmao

you may be wondering, what’re the syol pals like when they invade other worlds to take over and/or deal with those every-thousand-year-prophecy rpgs?? well buddy i got answers:
hadris  //  always playing final boss, though sometimes he pretends to just be a mindless abomination and other times he’s a hammy evil overlord. has a whole bunch of cool forms and likes to make different Final Forms for every place he conquers. when it’s over it varies how he responds. if he gets sealed away he’s powerful enough to just pretend he got sealed away and sneak out the back door and come back 1,000 years from now, just puts that on in calendar. sometimes he’ll let it look like they killed him for real if he doesn’t feel that world is ready to be conquered yet or they resist so strongly and boldly that he feels they deserve the win, but most of the time he just rematerializes in his more humanish form like nothing happened and is like “haha wow you guys are pretty good! let’s be ‘friendos,’ as the kids say”
orange  //  he and aedi aren’t always sent out on things bc they’re delicate normal human beings, but sometimes he’s sent out to do scouting, help set things up, bring someone coffee before a fight, the likes. sometimes also takes on a role of being hadris’ loyal assistant who gets murdered by him (don’t worry it’s all staged, hadris treats his citrus friend well) to show just how evil he is, and other times he’ll pose as someone who’s a traitor and helps the “heroes” out only to die like a chapter later in a tragic cutscene
aedi  //  mostly the same as orange, but she’ll also often serve a role as being someone people talk to via phone or other means to relay information for the “heroes” to eavesdrop on or someone to give out news when the hadrissquad hijacks Every TV
flann  //  often ends up posing as someone who’s sweet and helpful but then betrays the “heroes” soon enough and goes into boss mode... other times she’ll just appear in feralian form like it’s a tragic curse hadris placed on her and her soul can only be freed via murder... she will always make u sad one way or another
lausac  //  the exact same cocky asshole he always is
mariellu  //  a pretty straightforward boss, usually established to be high in hadris’ ranks. doesn’t need to rp much bc she’s a pretty straightforward loyal warrior bee
lefleuris  //  even smugger and more disconcerting than usual! plays up his blatant suspicious behavior a lot, so he ends up being the second final boss a lot, “murdered” by hadris at some point later, and sometimes hadris even helps him be the Real Final Boss. can’t just be a traitorous bishonen in an rpg and not get to be the Real Final Boss at least once, yknow
valence  //  like mariellu, pretty straightforward loyal warrior grandma. can’t rly get into faking her personality but fortunately she already fits in just fine
loligo  //  usually playing team rocket with lausac with her typical brash personality bc honestly she just likes getting to punch things. sometimes venith will convince her into adopting some gimmick or another or doing some kind of dynamic with her, though... sometimes they’ll both be the local Tough Chicks who’ll beat the shit out of you, sometimes they’ll both play mysterious femme fatales, sometimes they’re bad cop bad cop (theres no good cop, theyre the bad guys), sometimes they’ll amp up their tomboy and girly girl routine... as long as she gets to fight someone she’ll leave happy
elemon  //  typically serves as one of hadris’ most powerful minions, serving as either the big mid-game boss that makes you feel really accomplished or the penultimate boss or something like that.
merah  //  can sometimes be seen in aedi’s role, other times he’s paired up to be a quirky miniboss squad with septicemia, sometimes he openly helps the “heroes” have a chance against hadris, sometimes he’s an eerily nice boss you don’t expect to be a boss until he slime punches u... a boy of many talents!
venith  //  really likes to exaggerate her personality and ham it up... usually 1) likes to act like a haughty anime noble with the “ohohoho” laugh and everything and acts like everyone is beneath her, 2) plays the part of the mysterious and beautiful stranger who only fights one on one, personally, and will probably kiss you 3) full-on femme fatale who spends months on a planet breaking hearts before the invasion even begins just to have a reputation, or 4) a mix of all of the above. no matter what she does though she has a hard time Not flirting with cute girls who can defeat her in battle. fight her and live and you become worthy of her true gaying....
septicemia  //  often paired up with merah and/or lausac (and/or loligo) to be the quirky miniboss squad... doesn’t change too much personality-wise and just has fun being herself and inconveniencing heroes!!
chiro  //  plays the role of chiro shiroiro
amelano  //  also often serves as the penultimate boss, less likely to be mid-game than elemon despite elemon technically being stronger than him, but amelano is the white-haired angel-demon edgy anime prettyboy and hadris loves embracin those tropes. likely to randomly appear before the “heroes” several times to say something ominous and/or declare that they aren’t strong enough yet
they really just like to have a fun time with it all in all... some worlds they make the storyline darker than others but as time goes on their plots and attitudes are increasingly lighthearted in a way. i mean yeah there’s often the threat of your world being destroyed (but yknow not really) but you have fun with it... somehow......
they’re also big fans of kidnapping a “hero” or two and sometimes they’ll let them check out behind the scenes at how it’s all pretty much just a show, often offering them a “role” in some way... like “hey wanna betray your friends for a while?? it’ll be fun” or “hey wanna get a cool brainwashed evil form?? u can keep the costume afterward”
all in all it’s a good time for everyone, get your planet invaded by hadris today! and let him conquer it once story mode is over bc it’s good for your economy
