“You shouldn’t be up this late”
Bakugo’s voice whispered, filling the silence in the dorm kitchen. He was right, and usually you weren’t. You valued your sleep, often being one of the first in the class to call it a night. But tonight was different. Your thoughts, your heart, was restless. Despite following your nighttime routine, which was curated specifically to help you wind down and rest, you still found yourself tossing and turning. Not even your ocean sounds could help you drift to sleep. Thats why when Bakugo spoke, you sighed heavily and let your shoulders droop.
“Yeah. I know.”
He took a few steps toward you, leaning against the countertop. “So what’s got you awake?” You shrugged at him, watching the water in the electric kettle begin to form small bubbles. “Dunno…just can’t sleep I guess.” You looked over to him, taking soft note of his tired eyes and disheveled hair. “And you? You aren’t usually awake at this time either.” He shrugged right back at you. “Dunno…can’t sleep I guess” he echoed your words, and it made you smile just a bit.
You both knew why the other was awake, or at least you both had some inkling. Between how the ambush attack played out and Midoriya running away, neither of you have had time to really process all of what has gone on. You haven’t had time to think about how your lives had been flipped one eighty. But since Midoriya was back safe and sound, and there was no real information on the League or their next move, everything was at a standstill. That meant your brain was finally coming up to speed on what had gone on recently…and it was overwhelming. It felt like your mind was in over drive, thinking so many thoughts at once that it was causing you to lose sleep.
“…There’s a lot of water in this kettle. Would you like some tea?” Bakugo didn’t answer, just walked over to the mug cabinet and grabbed both of your designated mugs. Yours had your hero insignia, and he had his. It was Nezu’s Christmas gift for all of the hero course students. Bakugo opened the tea drawer, grabbing you each a packet of sleepytime zen tea before walking back over to you. You worked in silence then, enjoying each other’s company as you made your own cups.
Your relationship with Bakugo was unique. You admired him, even when he was a bit of an asshole at the beginning of the school year. You’ve enjoyed watching him grow and working beside him as a teammate. You were inspired by his tenacity and drive. You liked how smart and witty he was, and how he could be funny even when he didn’t realize it. It also didn’t hurt that he was actually pretty cute. And all of the same things went for you in his eyes. He admired your kindness and your courage. He was inspired by the way you had such a big heart but you were no push over, standing up to him when he got too rough with his words or during training. In his eyes, it was like you were one of the only people to give him a chance, getting to know him past his rough exterior. You two had gotten closer during the year, training and studying together sometimes. You began to sit next to him for lunch, stealing small pieces of chicken from his plate while he stole beef from yours. You were the only one with that privilege. Eventually, you became this unlabeled, unspoken thing. You didn’t have to confess your feelings because he knew, and you knew how he felt about you even if he’s never admitted it.
You softly sipped your tea, allowing the warm liquid to run down your throat and causing you to sigh. He stirred his own cup, watching the spoon go around and around. Technically, there was nothing else for you two to do in the kitchen. Technically, you could’ve parted ways right here and drank your own cups in your rooms. But you couldn’t bear to leave him. Deep down, you both didn’t want to be alone tonight.
“Bakugo?” He looked up as you said his name. “Could I sleep over in your room tonight? I don’t think I want to be alone”
All he did was scoff, pick up his mug and began walking towards the staircase. When he realized you weren’t following, he scowled and turned to look at you.
“Let’s go brat. I’m missing out on my beauty sleep”

Ps: im starting to do requests! So if you have an idea for me, go ahead and put it in my asks <3

summary - short n sweet ellie x swiftie!reader fluff for your souls!!
listen to ellie’s taylor swift playlist here 🫶🏻
⋆˖⁺‧₊☽◯☾₊‧⁺˖⋆
“ellieee,” you groan, her nu metal practically shaking her side mirrors, how she hasn’t blown out the speakers is beyond you. “i love you. i love your music. if i hear limp bizkit for one more minute i might die.”
your girlfriend sighs, and changes gears on her old beat up truck as you reach a red light, out in what seems to be, well, the middle of nowhere. ellie’s late night drives were always perfect, she always found the most majestic looking places without even trying. tonight was perfect, a sweet, crisp summer evening. somehow, you made it up a gorgeous mountain, the late setting sun painting a lavender and peach hazy sky.
“alright….just this once.”
one thing about ellie? do NOT mess with her radio while she’s driving. but when you gaze up at her with those doe eyes and puffy lips, she can’t help but give in to you.
giggling, you plug your phone into the aux, immediately going to a playlist you made just for the occasion. you’ve been waiting for your opportunity.
taylist (ellie’s version) 🌿
“dude! seriously?” she chuckles, her calloused hand palming the wheel, face flushed.
“whaaat! i need to convert you!” you whine, shuffling the playlist, one of the many folklore songs you added popping up on the dashboard.
cardigan - folklore
⇄ ◁◁ I I ▷▷ ↻
⁰⁰ ²⁵ ━━●━━━━━━━━ ⁰² ⁰⁸
humming along, you follow the moons perch up in the sky, fleeting through trees and houses.
as the chorus begins, ellie’s demeanor softens. she never disliked taylor, but it wasn’t really her style. but this…was music she could feel. the way you knew every note like it was the story of your life was magnetizing. it was nothing like the pop hits she usually heard the blonde belting out on the radio.
as ellie reaches another red light, she grips your chin softly, pulling you into an enchanting kiss, the glow of the stop light in the distance.
“well what was all that for, stupid?” you giggle into her lips, her eyes glued to you the entire time.
“i dunno….the song just made me feel that way….i guess?” she chuckles, the light turning a bright green. after a moment of hesitation, ellie speaks again.
“can…can we listen to more?”
“i converted you!! i KNEW IT!”
join my taglist!

good morning, is sad bojere bitches working hours yet? Is the office open? *banging on a door✊️*
I keep thinking about that "Bojan where are you send me something!"... What if the calls really stopped and it's been not a week but a month or more? The last time they tried to make a call something was always in a way on both ends so they just said they'll try again next time, but without fixing a date. And Jere tried sending couple of memes but Bojan was busy recording so he replied only much later and only a reaction... And now it feels to Jere like he might be bothering him so he's trying not to reach out anymore 😭 but he's missing Bojan so much especially now with all the shit that gone down and all the anniversaries 😭😭 he's thinking "of course Bojan doesn't need someone who keeps landing in a mess, it's been a year anyway he's much younger and much prettier it's okay if he has to move on" 😭😭😭 but Jere is waiting of course, grabbing his phone at every vibration... hoping it's him this time... Maybe he can even make the trip to Slovenia happen this year instead of next year... will it be too late? will Bojan even want him there? *Jere's voice inside his head* 😭😭😭😭
Come on in, we're open for business!
*reads the rest*
HEY NOW WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT---
I absolutely refuse to accept this, but let's say for the sake of the argument that meanwhile, on Bojan's side, he's missing Jere like crazy but since he's left him on read too many times now he doesn't know what to say, and he doens't go on insta or twitter so he doesn't even know everything that's going on... But then they post the new song online and watch the esc final and it hits him how it's the anniversary of everything, and this time Jere is there without him, and it seems like such a shitshow, is he holding up okay???
And he finally picks up the phone and calls and they talk all through the night, about everything, and Bojan says Jere's doing so well despite everything and it'll all be alright and I'm with you no matter what, okay??
And Jere says that his fall tour dates are published soon and there's a Ljubljana date there with a few spare days around it, and if Bojan's up for it he could maybe show him around..?
And Bojan pretends to think about it, I dunno man I might be busy??
To which Jere says he's a little shit and smells like it too and all is well the end

We've seen Jaune's extended family and We've seen _NPR's extended family....
BUT
What about Ozpin's extended family? I can totally see Gojo and Raiden (MGRR) being openly related to Ozpin. Gojo would DEFINITELY try and hit on Glynda just to piss of Ironwood lmao
Hmm. I dunno about Raiden. It's not just about looks, it's also about Powers, Vibes, and fighting style. Gojo Makes sense, Raiden feels more like a Schnee Cousin or one of Adam's relatives.
~~~~~
Yang: There's no way they're younger than 55.
Nora: Look at them! Look at their smooth skin and brilliant smiles and tell me that they're old!
Ozpin: Frieren, it has been too long since we last talked.
Frieren: It has been. You seem to be doing well.
Ozpin: Indeed I am. My apprentice has been doing well.
Frieren: Oh yes, that Pine boy. How old is he now?
Ozpin: Uhh ... Fourteen I believe.
Frieren: Hmm. "Time does Fly" as they say.
Ozpin: How has Fern Been?
Frieren: Very well. Developing into a fine young woman.
Ozpin: ...
Frieren: ... Your students are following us.
Ozpin: I'm quite aware.
*Bush_Rustle.MP3*
Ozpin: And now, they are not.
Frieren: I can tell. I can also tell that you are Tired.
Ozpin: I have been tired for a long time.
Frieren: ...
Ozpin: ...
Frieren: I will find a way to free you. I haven't stopped looking.
Ozpin: I know. And you know what I'll tell you about that, right?
Frieren: "I know how to free myself, I'm still just figuring it out."
Ozpin: It's good to know your memory hasn't faded with age.
Frieren: I'd say the same, but your wit is lacking it's sharpness, you foolhardy coot.
Ozpin: What can I say? It is nice to see an old friend after so many years.
Frieren: *smiling in silence*
Ozpin: *Smiling with her*
???: *Distantly* EXPLOOOOSION!
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM*
Ozpin: Ah, It seem is I may need to check on another visitor. Apologies for cutting our time short, but I know well we are not lacking in it's supply. Good day.
Frieren: A good day to you as well Ozma.
~~~~~
Gojo: *Laying on Ozpin's desk* Hey Hey! If it isn't the most Cursed man himself, and I've got to say, you are looking pretty alright for your age.
Ozpin: Thank you Mister Satoru. Please get out of my office.
Gojo: I'm just checkin' in, making sure you don't have anything you shouldn't. Your office seems clean!
Ozpin: I should certainly hope so. Glynda!
Gojo: Hey hey hey, There's no need to be so rough with your Cousin!
Glynda: *Lifting Gojo with her semblance* You know you aren't supposed to be in here.
Gojo: *Not resisting her* Fine, I'll go at the request of such a gorgeous lady~
Glynda: *Flinging him into the elavator* Out.
Gojo: Wait a minute!
Ozpin: WHAT!
???: *Distantly* EXPLOOOOSION!
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM*
Gojo: You should go check on that.
Glynda: ... That girl is infuriating.
Ozpin: Not as much as her teammates.
~~~~~~
Marcille: *Shoveling food into her mouth*
Ozpin: You must be hungry.
Marcille: *Gulp* For something Normal? Absolutely! This is like a Cheat day without Senshi to scold me for eating things that aren't balanced. *Overdramatic Sniffle* It's been so long since I had chocolate ...
Ozpin: Well ... just try not to overeat. I know it can be tempting to have more than your fill of luxury, but do try not to make yourself ill.
Marcille: ... *Sigh* Fine. How have you been?
Ozpin: Tired, but things have been improving. It is nice to see you again my dear.
Marcille: "My Dear"? You are old.
Ozpin: Yes, yes I am. How has Falin been recovering?
Marcille: Fairly well, Laios has been by her side day and night. He's not been sleeping well, and when he does he has nightmares. I worry for him.
Ozpin: Ah yes, I have a current student that is quite like Mr Touden, though he is a bit more charming with people.
Marcille: "A bit?"
Ozpin: Yes, He's not as well read, but he is somewhat better at reading people-
???: *Distantly* EXPLOOOOSION!
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM*
Ozpin: *White Knuckling Long Memory* I swear if my hair wasn't already white- I'm afraid I have to go check Someone Marcille. Please eat until you're full and comfortable, then give Falin, Laios, Senshi, and Chilchuck my greetings and well wishes.
~~~~~
???: Excuse me Headmaster Ozpin, I have an Inquiry.
Ozpin: Oh- Oh hello. I see my reputation proceeds me, What is you're name miss ...
2B: I am referred to as 2B. I am searching for one "Pietro Polendina."
Ozpin: He'll be with the Atlesians, over-
???: EXPLOOOOSION!
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM*
Ozpin: WHERE IS SHE!
2B: *Sword at the ready* The source of that detonation came from that direction.
Ozpin: Thank you! I will handle this myself, you may go.
2B: Is that an Order?
Ozpin: Yes!
2B: *Sheathing her sword* Very well.
~~~~~
???: Move it Kazuma!
Kazuma: I'm going, I'm going! Calm down.
Ozpin: You two!
Megumin: Aw crud
Ozpin: Have you been launching those explosions off?
Kazuma: Megumin has. Why?
Ozpin: You've been causing disturbances, damaging property, and driving me to near madness!
Kazuma: Well Megumin said she she got perm-
Kazuma: You lied didn't you?
Megumin: ... I didn't think anyone would care ...
Kazuma: Really? Again Megumin!
Ozpin: Mr. Sato, please go on back the dormitories. I will take the young mage here to be written up for her infractions and returned to her cousins.
Kazuma: *Dropping her* Alright, sounds good to me.
Megumin: Jerk!
Ozpin: Come on, Let's get you back to Miss Rose and Miss Xiao-long.
Megumin: *Grumble*

I love manga and comics, but I gotta say. So many of the series i have found most influential to my work either won’t finish, have not finished, or finished in a sort of unsatisfying way. Even if they’re fine, its usually not like.. IT. This is a pretty common experience. I have had a lot more luck watching movies that have endings that felt worth the experience and I’ve started to try to read in hopes to get more exposure to “good endings”.. But i do wish it was more common in my favorite medium to like, have that experience! Even when the endings are pretty good (and there are some, i personally think “paradise kiss” had a great ending that makes me return to the series multiple times over the decades) - I also am like.. I dunno. Its never the highlight of the story, you know. Its not the main reason why you’d read it, is the ending. I would assume most stories across all mediums, the ending isn’t going to be the “best part” anyway. However, after finally finishing watching UTENA earlier this year, I can say that at least for that series (no movie spoilers pls, i still havent seen it ;n;) the ending was in fact, the best part to me and made the entire experience even more memorable and worthwhile to watch. Months later, I’m still kinda amazed that happened! Wish it was not so rare, but also what a treat to get to see something like that felt like what i think an ending to a story should be. Still not a manga/comic ofc, but y’kno. Still good.
Other strong endings for me were: Paradise Kiss (as I said above), There will be blood, Monster, NGE (specifically end of evangelion) … umm! I don’t know.. Is that really it for me? I like the 98’ Trigun end, but i also hated it as a teenager. So its more of a “nostalgic” one to me, same with Princess Mononoke. I’ll include those just for the sake of having more to think of.
There’s plenty more i am fine with and enjoy fine enough.. but i guess its a lot harder for me to find ones that last in my head as what i find to be a satisfying & impressive end.. Of course, endings are all based on taste. Maybe i just haven’t seen enough endings. I think this contributes, along with a plethora of other elements, why writing endings are so hard! There’s just a lot you want to say and it is such a long journey to get there anyway. You are filled with doubt with your executions of ideas, or maybe find the ending you thought of less satisfying than you used to think it was. The longer you spend with something, the more you might find issues. Plus, it really is so hard just to get there. You’re usually falling over with exhaustion just to get to the finish line, let alone do the ending of your dreams. I know when i get to the ends of my chapters, i’m usually so desperate just to get there, i end up feeling like they come out poorly vrs my vision for them.
Yes.. i have been thinking about endings a lot. Its just something that’s always on my mind, with NRD nearing its close. It still is going to take time of course, but as I revise the last chapters I’m still like left with a lot of feelings with wondering how it’ll come out, if i can even do it, ect. I know i will, its inevitable. But after that, well, my big struggle with FFAK will continue. I know that NRD has given me more tools to handle a series as long as FFAK, but its still getting older and it can be harder to understand all the things I wanted to say with it, what I still can say with it and what is the most valuable to say with it. I can’t do everything! And i certainly have more ideas for it than I could draw, I’m excited to have the story close too. Before it used to make me too upset to even think it i’d cry.. But now i’m like yeah! I wanna know too. I want to share what I thought of, even if its not what readers might have thought it was going to be like. Honestly, with every choice i make in the story, i always have had at least 1 or 2 other options, and I get attached to the other versions of the story that i dont get to make. They all end up very different ends, but still more or less the same story regardless.
Anyway, just some thoughts on writing and comics today…
