you're so needy, baby
first actual post, be kind!

also i tried my best but there's going to be spelling error and shit, i'm only one person and im sorry. Also decided to end it early because I don’t think that it’s that good. But if you want me to actually finish it, shoot me an ask.
word count: ~1.7k
It started that you wanted to play your game, and Choso kept asking for attention. He kept standing by your side even though you just started your new quest in your game. It was going to take awhile. You kept looking up at him when you saw him shuffling side to side from the corner of your eyes.
"Cho," You voice soft, this was your first forreal day off that you didn't have to do errands or still go on missions. You wanted to play your game. It's been weeks. "What is it that you need, baby?"
Your boyfriend just silently pulled at your sleeve, giving you a pout.
"If you want something, you have to tell me, I can't read minds." You pause your game and full turn to face the poor curse.
"I just..." His voice so quiet and sounds? Whiny? "I really miss you, Mommy."
oh. Oh.
"You miss Mommy, baby?" You coo, your face splitting into a toothy grin. You watch him nod, his face flushing such a pretty shade of pink.
"We...we haven't done it in so long," His voice was most definitely whiny. He wasn't wrong, since you were sent on back to back missions, all you did when you got home was just...sleep. The only thing you two did for the past couple weeks was scattered blows and handies. You understood where he was coming from.
But you really wanted to play your game. You also happened to look down, and see that Choso was half hard in the joggers you bought him. A bright idea crossed your mind, making you giggle slightly. It was perfect.
"How about this," You purr, your hands reach out and caress his stomach through his shirt. You watch as his body tensed and breath hitched. It made you smile softly. He's such a needy boy.
"I'll warm your cock, baby. I'll sit on your cock, and you be good for Mommy, okay?" You watch as his face twist in lust and confusion.
"Let Mommy play their game for one hour, okay? If you don't move and be a good boy, Mommy will let you fuck their hole however you want to, sound okay, Cho?"
Choso's face brightened up, you watched as his cock gave an interested twitch in the joggers.
"So... I can fuck Mommy if I'm good?" His voice was too cute, it was so hopeful and happy.
You nod, your lips giving your boyfriend a small smile of encouragement. "But, you're not allowed to move in me for one full hour. If you're able to do that, then yes." You really wanted to clarify the last part. You still really wanted to play your game.
Choso nodded, his face bright pink in lust and his facial expression showed so much excitement. You get off your office chair and motion for him to sit in it. You watch as he clammers into the chair, his hands fidgeting in his lap. His pants was still on…now that just won’t do.
You decided to pull the chair out from the desk, his hands grabbing on to the arm rests of your chair as you move him back. You move the chair far enough that you can slot yourself between the desk and your boyfriend, with space to move. You bend down to gently tug at Choso’s pants, pulling softly at each pant leg to get your point across. He dutifully lifts up his hips and you pull his pants down. He wasn’t wearing any underwear.
“Oh you, slut. No underwear? You’re so needy, baby!” You laugh, not maliciously but out of surprise. Generally he always kept his underwear on even at home, it was a habit he picked up from living with Yuuji before coming to live with you. He’s so desperate. It was so cute.
Choso nodded, his flushed face deepening in color. “I missed you so much, Mommy.” Your heart fluttered, god he was so cute. You were wearing one of your boxers only, so you swiftly pulled them off and tossed them off to your bed which was next to your desk. You watched as your boyfriend’s cock jumped, his cock almost all the way hard just from taking off both of your bottoms.
“This only works if you’re fully hard, so I’m gonna suck on it okay? Don’t move, okay? Be a good boy.” He gulped, his blush went down his neck and to his chest.
You didn’t wait for a response, you carefully dropped to your knees so you don’t land on your boyfriend’s feet. You looked back up at his face, looking at his lust filled eyes as you carefully brought the tip of his cock to your lips. Choso gasped quietly as you began to go down on him, your brain storing all his beautiful sounds in your memory bank for later. You sucked as much as you could comfortably fit in your mouth, making sure not to swallow around his hard length. After all, it’s just to make sure he’s completely hard not to actually get him off. You pulled back and went down again, doing this action a handful more times. Each time you took a bit more of his length in your mouth than the last. By this point Choso began panting, his mouth was open and he was mewling pathetically at the attention that you were giving him. You watched as his face began to scrunch up, his eyebrows furrowing cutely as he whined softly and gripped the arms of your desk chair.
You decide to pull off, which caused Choso to whimper. “Mommy, you felt so good though!” Choso was adorable, his eyes had tears in the corners from the stimulation.
“I know baby, but I told you I just wanted to just get you hard so you can slide in my hole, remember?” You were teasing him, you hand coming to gently stroke the tip of his cock. You felt his cock twitch in your hand deliciously, making you smile up at him. “Only for an hour, okay?”
You stood up and pulled up your shirt a little, it was baggy and you didn’t want it to catch on his cock or anything else. You leaned down a little bit and kissed Choso, your lips only going for a peck then pulling away. It was adorable seeing the poor curse trying to follow your lips. You turned around and felt Choso’s hands grab at your back, massaging your rolls lovingly as you pulled the chair closer to the desk with one hand. It was nice, your boyfriend didn’t care what you looked like, he loved your fat stomach, all your stretch marks and cellulite. It made you so happy that Choso genuinely love you for you, and wasn’t an asshole or embarrassed by you being fat. It made your heart soft when you felt his right hand snake its way to your front and rubbed at your stretch mark covered apron belly. You loved him so much. Without much prompting, you reached between your legs and aimed Choso’s cock to your now sopping wet hole. You carefully sat down, sheathing his length inch by inch. It took you a couple moments since your boyfriend was so big, but you finally bottomed out and was fully seated in his lap. Behind you though, you hear Choso gasping and felt him grip at your stomach. You looked behind your shoulder and saw his face was completely blissed out but also tortured. Your boyfriend’s face was so flushed, and his lips were parted and had drool partially leaking out of the corner of his mouth.
“Oh fuck, baby you feel so good around me.” Choso gasped out, his eyebrows furrowing as he opened his eyes to look at yours. “Love your hole, Mommy! It makes my cock feel so good!”
You smile softly as you lean back to give him a kiss. You sloppily landed it on his nose, since that was as close as you could get, but nonetheless you turn back around. You shifted a little, getting a bit more comfortable on your boyfriend’s muscular thighs. The moment made both of you sigh, his shaft was hitting your insides Perfectly, and your hole was clenching around his shaft so good. It was then that you realized with a laugh that you were still too far away from the desk, Not too far away, but too much so that you couldn’t reach your keyboard well enough to actually play.
“Baby?” You ask, your head turning around to look at your boyfriend. “You can move me for a minute or two if you scoot the chair up closer to the desk.”
“Move you on my cock?” Choso sounded so excited.
“Yep! Only for a minute or two, then I’ll play my game. But I can’t play this far away from the keyboard.” You blink at Choso as he smiled at you as he did what you ask in a heartbeat. You felt yourself and him scoot across the hardwood floor in a smooth motion, his thighs clenching as he flexed his legs to propel forward. Choso propelled you two enough so you can reach your keyboard and pull it closer to you. He left enough room so your stomach wasn’t digging into the desk, he was so considerate. God you loved him.
“Okay, you can move for only two minutes then you’ll let me play, okay?” You grinned at Choso as you felt him grab at your hips and sides, and hefted you up. Since he was a half-curse, his strength was able to carry you with no problems. He swiftly brought you down, your ass smacking against his pelvis with a loud slap. You grab at your desk as he lifted you up and began a brutal pace. You were left moaning helplessly. Your body jolting with each time Choso meeting you halfway. You look at your desktop and see that two minutes has passed and you reach down and grab at Choso’s legs, making him come to a halt.
“Baby, that’s two minutes.” You grinned wolfishly.

a/n: continuation of the bokuto baby fever drabble \^o^/
Tumblr media
[03:23 pm] "oh? Akaashi-san! so nice of you to drop by!" you say with a smile on your face. standing before you was Akaashi in his casual clothes — a day off from work probably, who was holding a box in his hand. the dark-haired boy slightly bowed before meeting your eyes with a soft smile on his face as well.
"(Y/n)-san, I hope I'm not disturbing. I just wanted to drop these tarts and ask how the pregnancy's going."
Akaashi saw how your eyes lit up when he raised the box of tarts, knowing how much of a sweet-tooth you are.
"That's so sweet of you! You're not disturbing at all. Good thing Koutaro's home. He'll be happy to see you. Please come in."
You say as you thanked Akaashi for the tarts as you took it from him, stepping aside to welcome him in your and Bokuto's shared home. Akaashi took off his shoes and placed his coat on the rack before following you to the living room.
Akaashi scans the familiar room and noticed how calm it was. You noticed this and can't help but giggle.
"Kou's still having his shower from his afternoon workout. Have a seat while I prepare some refreshments. "
"No, it's okay (Y/n)-san. Won't your feet and back hurt?" Akaashi then eyes your very pregnant tummy — it looked like it was going to pop any second. You were already in the ninth month of your pregnancy, and your due date was fast approaching.
"You don't have to worry about that. I've just been sitting around all day anyway" you say with a chuckle, both hands now on your tummy, patting it lightly.
This was your first pregnancy. It had been a sore and tiring nine months for you as your stomach was getting heavier each day. Your feet would hurt whenever you walk, and your back would ache. But the pain wasn't that drastic as you thought it would be. You'd probably thank Bokuto for that since Bokuto somehow made a smart decision to enroll you in a prenatal yoga class. You were even surprised of how he got the idea in the first place knowing how clueless your husband is when it comes to these things — or maybe he has the initiative when it comes to taking care of you.
The thought of Bokuto asking around on how to help you during the pregnancy sent butterflies to your stomach and warms your heart.
Bokuto was mostly present during your yoga sessions. He was all for fitness and seeing those yoga positions that were taught in class, he would assist you whenever you'll do yoga at home — positioning you properly, crouching beside you and always hover his hands near your back whenever you use the yoga ball so that you'll not fall on the ground, and sometimes snapping some pictures for your Instagram stories on your pregnancy journey.
"Hey hey hey! Akaashi you're here!"
The booming voice of Bokuto fills in the room as he descended from your shared bedroom — his eyes bright and a big smile was plastered on his face as he saw his best friend.
"Hello Bokuto-san. Yeah, I wanted to visit you and (Y/N). It's been a while since I dropped by" Akaashi says with a smile. Bokuto laughs gleefully and pats Akaashi on the back, rather a bit hard as Akaashi let out a huff, making you giggle. The two haven't changed a bit.
"We're doing great! I'm so excited for our little Bokuto to come soon" Bokuto says with a proud smile on his face. You could still remember the time of when Bokuto got you pregnant. All because of a stuffed toy you ordered online.
"Baby, could you bring these to the table?" You called, making Bokuto turn to you and was about to head to the kitchen when Akaashi offered to take it so that Bokuto could assist you to sit down.
The three of you sat down and tried to catch up. It has indeed been awhile. Akaashi was the one who would often visit you two. But his usual days in visiting came to a halt when his company hit something big that kept him busy for the past couple of weeks. Nevertheless, the rest of the afternoon was filled with good food, jokes and laughs.
"When are you due, (Y/N)-san?" asks Akaashi
"Next week. A bit nerve-wracking if you ask me" you say as you sip some juice.
"You don't have to worry about that, baby. I'm here!" Bokuto says as he lovingly caresses your baby bump, which made Akaashi smile as he watched you two. Akaashi never thought this day would come. His best friend was about to become a father. Bokuto may not look like he is responsible enough to have a family but that's far from it.
Outside of your shared walls, he's a volleyball superstar who plays with his heart and in his element of being a professional athlete — yet, inside your sacred home there lies a caring husband and partner who's always there for you through every struggle despite how these things are quite new to him — yet, he welcomed this unfamiliarity with open arms because he wants to be with you and your world — a world where he wants to be in for the rest of his life, with his volleyball career of course.
"So I'm guessing you two already have a plan then? And if Bokuto-san will be with you in the delivery room during labor?"
this made you cackle out loud, making Bokuto confused.
"Why are you laughing babe?"
Akaashi figured out why.
You dramatically wiped tears from your eyes and crossed your arms, "I don't think you'll last for more than five seconds in there, babe" you say, still cackling.
"Wha- what makes you think that?!"
"Kou, I've shown you a video on childbirth. You fainted! And the video was still paused. just the sight of it makes you a goner"
"I am not! I'm big and strong, I can handle it!" He looks away and crosses his arms, closing his eyes as if he was offended, making Akaashi sigh.
"Bokuto-san, (Y/N) isn't referring to your physical strength. It's your mental strength is what she means, if you could take on her giving birth."
"I know what she means" Bokuto stubbornly says, still looking away from the both of you. This made Akaashi sigh again while you let out a giggle.
"Okay, Kou. You'll be in the delivery room with me. My big, buffy, brave man" you say, placing your hand on the side of his face and kissed his cheek sweetly, his mood instantly brightened and couldn't help but wrap his arms around you and planted many kisses on your face.
"Kou that's enough. Akaashi-san's right in front of us!"
Akaashi smiles and stands up, telling you that he'll wash the dishes despite your protests.
A week later.
It was the middle of night. It was like those usual nights. You would wake up around this hour to take leak. You don't want to disturb your husband as he was peacefully sleeping beside you after a tiring day from practice, so you wiggled out of bed quietly as possible. As you were finally on your feet, you felt a sudden jolt of pain coming from your uterus, making you exhale sharply and holding onto the wall for support. Your contractions were getting worse. You thought it was one of those false contractions, since it had been on and off for the past couple of days. But boy, another contraction hits once you stepped in the bathroom, making you hiss and grab onto the sink, gripping onto it while sweat trickled down your forehead.
Your other hand held onto the bottom of your baby bump, trying to soothe your discomfort. discomfort was an understatement. your breath hastens as another wave of contraction hits you, making you hiss loudly.
You tried to calm your breathing, letting out a shaky breath, eyes closed, your body feeling a bit numb. The pain was still there, yet what made your heart stop for a moment was the feeling something wet trickling down your thighs down to your feet.
Your water broke.
It took you a couple of seconds before realizing that your baby was finally on the way, hundreds of emotions rushing through you, your mind a bit of a mess on what you'll do first. But one thing's for sure, Bokuto was there.
"B-babe? baby?! Kou!" you called from the bathroom. Bokuto groans and turned to your side of the bed, confused as you were not there. His head then instantly turns to the bathroom to see you just standing there but with an alarmed look on your face, like you were in distress.
"(Y/N)? What's wrong?" Bokuto suddenly feels awake, quickly rushing to you.
"No wait careful! You'll step onto my water!"
Bokuto furrows his eyebrows before looking down, making his eyes widen.
"Oh my god baby! Our little owl's-"
"Aghh!" you groaned loudly this time, making Bokuto panic a little as he saw your pained face but quickly manned up and took you out of the bathroom. Bokuto let you sit down for a moment, quickly grabbing the hospital bag that you prepared beforehand. You let out another groan, tears starting to form on your eyes.
"Koutaro! Please hurryy!"
As Bokuto picked up the car keys, he then rushes to you, crouching down to meet your eyes, running a hand through your sweaty hair with a loving smile on his face. If this were the high school Bokuto, he wouldn't know what to do and would be a panic mess. But this Bokuto has matured. He may be silly at times but when it comes to you, his mind is clear and will do anything in his power to keep you safe and healthy.
"Let's go have that baby" Bokuto says before kissing your forehead and lifting you bridal style, taking you to the car. Making sure you were comfortable in your seat, Bokuto then heads for the driver's seat then speeds away to the hospital you've booked beforehand.
Finally arriving at the hospital, nurses were there escorting you the delivery room, with Bokuto making calls as he was outside while the nurses were preparing you for your delivery. He called both of your families to inform them you were about to give birth. Deep down, Bokuto was nervous as hell. He was about to become a father. The thought of you becoming a mother too instantly warms his heart.
Few moments later, a nurse came out from the delivery room to give Bokuto a throwaway coverall for cleanliness. Bokuto was then allowed to head inside. As his eyes lands on you, he quickly holds your hand.
"Baby! Are you alright?!"
"Does it look like I'm okay?! I'm about to push a baby out of my pussy you banged!"
Bokuto's eyes widen, and his face turned red as he saw some nurses giggling at your retort, but he knows it was just a stressful and painful time for you.
"Okay okay, j-just hold onto my -"
Bokuto couldn't finish his sentence as he was quickly cut off by your screams as another contraction came, which was a bit violent compared to the past contractions you experienced. Bokuto didn't expect you had this kind of strength as you were somehow crushing his hand.
"B-babe! that's my spike hand! hold onto the other one"
You slapped his dominant hand away and switched to the left one, giving it a much tighter squeeze, making Bokuto hold onto his breath. Whatever pain he was experiencing, he knows you had it far worse. You were breathing heavily, and tiredness was visible on your face. Bokuto wiped the sweat from your forehead and kissed your head, mumbling comforting words to soothe you and distract you from the pain.
"I've got you baby. You got this. You're the strongest woman I know! You're gonna be one hot momma!" says Bokuto, trying to lighten the mood, only to be met by one of your horrifying screams. Just then, the doctor finally arrived.
"Oh thank god doctor you are here! Please help my wife!" your ob-gyne acknowledges your husband, securing her gloves before sitting down, taking a peek of your cervix.
"Alright let's get started. Your cervix is well-dilated now. Mr. Bokuto, please assist your wife by being there for her"
Bokuto nods vigorously, giving your hand an assuring squeeze.
"Alright (Y/N), whenever I say push, count 1 to 3 before you actually push, okay?"
You nod, trying to catch some breath. You could feel Bokuto's thumbs caressing the top of your hand, making you calm down a little.
"Push!"
As you pushed, Bokuto was holding in his breath as well. Like he was also the one pushing the baby with you.
"Push!"
A week before, you made a deal with Bokuto that he can look anywhere, only he will not look down there during labor. Yet, curiosity got the better of him. He just wanted to see your baby owl as soon as possible. With one eye open, he took a quick glance, only to see blood everywhere and how he couldn't process how it stretched so much, making him a bit lightheaded.
The doctor notices this, gesturing to the nurses.
"Oh no. We've got another fainter. Please assist."
You were too busy and too in pain to notice that your big, buffy, six foot husband was already on the floor, unconscious. The nurses had to call for back up as they couldn't carry Bokuto by themselves. By the time he was carried out of the room, taking him to your pre-booked room where you'll be staying at after giving birth, you heard loud cries that made your heart swell and tears started to stream down your face.
Your baby owl was finally in the same world as you.
"Congratulations, (Y/N). It's a bummer your husband isn't here with you right now" says the doctor as she carefully gave you your baby who was now wrapped in a blanket, you cooing at her as she was still crying.
"I told him not to look down there. But anyway, at least he'll wake up to some good news." You say with a giggle.
Hours passed since the successful delivery of your baby. You were now peacefully sleeping in the room you and Bokuto booked, which was a bit luxurious. Bokuto wanted your birth to be comfortable and stress-free as possible.
You were regaining consciousness from your slumber, making you yawn and scan the room. There you saw Bokuto sleeping by your side, his head resting on the edge of the bed while holding your hand, making you smile and ran a hand through his hair.
"Oh Kou~ you must've been tired." you say, still running your fingers through his hair, massaging his scalp. This pulled Bokuto from his slumber, blinking rapidly as he was trying to get into the right headspace. Then he saw you. How can someone who had just given birth be so glowing and beautiful?
"You're so beautiful, my love" Bokuto says in a soft tone, a loving and soft smile on his face as he sits down on the bed, leaning down to rest his forehead on yours, intertwining your hands together.
This made you blush. Despite how long you two have already been together, Bokuto still manages to make you feel giddy inside, as he feels the same way from you. This side of Bokuto still overwhelms you whenever you two are alone together.
When out in public, his love for you is loud and proud. But when you two are just alone, there shows another side of Bokuto, a soft Loverboy who is an absolute simp for you.
"You fainted" you say with a giggle, breaking your moment of serenity.
Bokuto sits up and looks away, a bit embarrassed.
"I never expected that there'll be so much blood!" he defended himself, making you giggle even more.
"I told you not to look" Bokuto pouts before resting his head lightly on your chest. Then he remembered.
"Our baby! When can I see them? You never told me if it's a boy or a girl!"
Before you could reply, a knock was heard. Bokuto then pressed a button, giving approval of entry to the whoever was behind the door. There entered a nurse who was pushing a hospital infant cot bed, and there lies your baby all clean and in pink overalls.
"Good afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Bokuto. Your baby is all set. We've checked everything from her vitals to gross description records and paperwork. The doctor instructed that you'll stay in the hospital for at least 2 days before discharging for observation. For the meantime, you may tend to your baby. Please keep her warm at all times and you may breastfeed her."
And with that, the nurse left the room, giving you and Bokuto some privacy. You were confused as to why Bokuto was still quiet. He was staring at your baby.
"Kou?" you asked worriedly, but then you saw how Bokuto carefully picked your baby up and slowly turned to face you, his eyes watery and couldn't hold back a smile on his face.
"I-It's a baby girl" he says, his voice cracking as he looks down at the small human in his arms who was sleeping peacefully. Just the sight of it makes your eyes water. You never thought this day would come. The scene before you made your heart feel full.
Bokuto then made his way towards you, giving you your baby girl, cradling it in your arms.
"Our little owl's so beautiful, and so is her momma! I love you so much, (Y/N). You have no idea how excited I am to announce to the world that we finally have baby."
"I love you so much too, Kou."
Bokuto leans down to kiss you lovingly on your lips before wrapping an arm around your waist, caressing your hip affectionately while resting his head on yours, admiring the little of bundle of joy you gave into this world. Bokuto couldn't asked for anything better, because the world he currently he is in is perfect. He got his successful volleyball career, his friends, the love of his life, and now your little owl that he'll love with all his heart with you.

Here we are heading to dinner last night for the first time in over 2 and a half years...
I hesitated to share my birthday dinner from last night expecting someone would attack me for wasting money on a dinner.
I've learned to go without often and to economize so much so, Matt had to talk me into going to begin with.
I was excited about the idea of going but not wanting to spend money, after all you lovely people donated to us for our survival, it felt wasteful, hence my hesitant face above 😌
Both Matt and I needed this. We needed to feel "normal", get away from the drama here and especially that little bit of water that was still in our room. We NEEDED to be OUT of this room, for just a little while.
Matt had a full two weeks paycheck, a first in awhile and we ordered extremely conservative.
Matt found a small florist shop, a little old lady in her late 80s running the store and he brought both the flowers 💐 and card to the restaurant earlier in the day, unbeknownst to me.
This restaurant had catered our wedding 10 years ago this May.
This is what I saw when they said our corner table was ready...😍❤💐
Tumblr media
"That smile was worth this. I haven't seen that smile I love in a VERY long time", Matt said.
This was the VERY first time he's EVER surprised me.
I didn't know he had it in him..hahaha 😆
Then this made me cry, it was as if Matt wrote this card 😭😍❤
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yes, we're holding hands ❤ here...everyone say, "aww" 😆
I look so tired 🤣 I guess I am, so much physically and mentally has transpired, I'm shocked I still have my sanity.
I felt like a queen for the night, then back to being Cinderella with her push broom for the next flood 💧💧💧💧🤣
But... for just a little while, ahhhh...it was magical to me 💝💝💝

I'm sure someone has asked before but how did established relationship Maxiel handle Daniel leaving Red Bull? I adore the way you write them ❤️
ohhh how delightful to receive this! I haven't written about them in awhile.
honestly i think it was kind of bad. max was incredibly hurt that daniel was leaving the team, leaving him as a teammate, and ultimately figured that daniel wanted to leave him as a boyfriend also. how could daniel still want to be romantically involved if he was leaving the team? leaving the team because of max?
daniel tried to explain that he didn't want to break up but he couldn't be with red bull anymore professionally because he had other goals and dreams. it was hard and messy for daniel, too, because he loves max the person, but max the teammate made things hard.
i think they probably took some time apart; max had a really hard time reconciling the idea that daniel could still love him but not want to be teammates. in his mind he couldn't get past that. how could daniel leave red bull because of him, but still want to be in a relationship?
i'd say it wasn't miscommunication because daniel tried to be as clear as he could with his intentions. he loves max. wants to be with max, still wants to go home with max every day. but max really couldn't separate his personal life from his work life. he's still so young and has growing and maturing to do, and the first few days and nights after daniel telling max what he was doing were really hard. lots of arguing, and talking into the night, and lots of crying on both parts, and max being unable to understand or accept that they could still be together through this.
daniel went back to his apartment. he never officially moved out of his place and into max's but one day he'd just... stopped going home. now being 'home' feels foreign because there's no max, no cats, just cold empty loneliness.
they never truly broke up or had that 'this is over' conversation but they spent a few weeks apart over summer break, trying to pretend to their friends like they weren't absolutely miserable, and being unable to tell their friends and families why. they're not really out to anyone but their trainers, who were really in the need to know category.
daniel's first year at renault was rough on both him and max relationship-wise. during summer break they could pretend everything was mostly the same, and they agreed to try to work through it and be together through the season. max was trying his best but he was still sad, still hurt, still feeling such conflict inside about how he could feel that daniel loves him but also believe that somehow he must not if he left red bull. it's always been hard for max to separate work and personal life, because driving has been his life for all of it.
i think ups and downs for that first year were common. times where they'd agreed to be together and get back to their lives together, and times where max's confidence was just shaken. he'd tried so, so hard to be brave and make his feelings known to daniel in the first place. he'd made his first move when he was just barely nineteen and been rejected spectacularly; embarrassed and heartbroken, but determined nonetheless. he'd waited for daniel to be okay with their age difference. pretended everything was cool for an entire year until he was twenty and daniel couldn't argue he was a kid, anymore. he'd waited, and tried so hard to be chill. he'd never committed himself like this to anything but racing, before. daniel had been it for him. two years together and he'd never so much as glanced at another man - devoted and in love and obsessed with daniel.
it devastated max to have daniel go to another team, and not be together all the time anymore. what if daniel met someone else? what if daniel realized he was wasting his time with max - too young, too focused, too obsessed with being the best, too immature. what if he found someone else, more his age, more exciting, interested in more things than racing. then what?
so. yeah. that first year was rough. max had to work hard on his own confidence in their relationship. it wasn't that he didn't trust daniel, it was mostly that he worried daniel would realize max wasn't all that special. he had to work hard on understanding that daniel could, and did, still love max despite not wanting to be on the same team anymore.
it wasn't easy and they had lots of fights, and tears, and hard talks, but i think when 2020 hit that made them really have to sort it out for good. lockdowns and shutdowns meant nothing but time together to work it out.
and they did! it might have taken a year of ups and downs, back and forth, together and apart at times, but they slowly got there. were committed to each other. and max figured it out. he still never wanted daniel to leave red bull. he still wishes daniel hadn't. but max is slowly learning that work and life don't have to be the same thing. he's learning.
it'll be six years for them this fall. six years. nearly a quarter of max's life. they survived 2019. they'll survive anything.

Alice,
I've loved being able to read Sweary She-Ra through the years. I happened upon it only a few months after finishing She-Ra (I was late to the party due to not having Netflix, oops), and it gave me so much wonderful content to keep my excitement for the series alive.
The way you explored the characters, especially Catra's mental health and her relationship with Shadow Weaver, helped give me a new understanding and greater appreciation of them. I bring up Catra specifically because, I'll be honest, I wasn't a big Catra fan for awhile. I liked her well enough, then kinda didn't in season 4, but grew fond of her again around season 5. But you helped me understand her thought-process, and I came to like her more because of it. I really like that you also handled her in a nuanced way, where, as you've said many times, you explained her behavior without excusing it, and that made all the difference.
One of the things I really appreciated about your take on She-Ra was how apparent your intelligence was, as well as your writing skill. It wasn't just "Catra says fuck and Glimmer has killed dozens," even though it could have been--you went the extra mile (or kilometer, since you're British :P) and gave us a variety of jokes, as well as mood shifts from comedic to tragic to dramatic to hopeful. All of the characters felt like themselves, even though they were pushed up to 11 and had some creative liberties taken, such as Frosta being a demon and Hordak's Geordie accent. You had a good handle on all of them, which can be very hard to do with a large cast, especially one written by another writer.
I also really appreciated that you took the time to answer asks and build a community here. It gave us lovely jokes such as Bob (that's right, I haven't forgotten about him), Catra's age, and Entrapta reading our comments. I've always been very shy online, but seeing you having such nice interactions with fans helped me open up, and I'm glad I did! I used to ask anonymously from time to time (yes, my first ask was about DT, all the way back during your start on season one, what else would it be? XD), and I'm glad I've gotten to chat and joke with you, as have the rest of us.
I'm so glad that you stuck with this and created such a wonderful fan-series. We never got a movie, but this was just as good, in my opinion. It was like watching SPOP for the first time all over again. I'm excited to see what you create next, be it SPOP-related or not. I hope the future has great things in store for you.
You brought us laughs, tears, and spectacular Glimmer-swears, and your blog means so much to so many people. You mean so much to so many people. I hope you find success in your future endeavors!
FOR THE HONOR OF GAYSKULL!
What can I say, it's truly been an honour (of Gayskull) to write something that I had no idea brought so much to many people. I'm genuinely quite humbled by the reaction.
I always wanted to be fair to all the characters, to show their reasons without necessarily validating the invalid stuff that they've done, and that particularly came across with Catra. It's no secret that I see a lot of parallels between her and my own history, but I've applied the same take-no-shit but be kind approach that I took with myself over the years. And I've learned a lot about mental health during that time, so I could give that sometimes painful realism, but also know just how to make fun of it in the right way.
In some ways, I feel like the characters I've written have taken on their own personality that's very distinct from the original, and that's probably why I think there's a little more mileage in them yet. Both in terms of original stuff (my pilot script Snowflakes has almost 1:1 versions of DT and Perfuma!), but also in the possibility for creating more Sweary stuff, and that is slowly taking shape - although I am taking it easy for a bit, I've already outlined a story which I'd love to make into an audio drama. Currently workshopping it with a couple of people, so watch this space...
It has been a joy to get so many asks from people, yourself included, and my inbox will always be open. I'm not going anywhere for a while! You were very much my DT-asker-in-chief, and I'm super glad you enjoyed their scenes (heck, you even got them a cameo at the end!). So thank you immensely for the support.
I'm happy I've been able to contribute to a wonderful fandom in such a way, and I'm eager to keep on giving back to a community that has given me so many amazing friends.
FOR THE HONOR OF GAYSKULL!

So any opinions on the astral bodies in general cause for me I'm kinda mixed on them at first I'm like whoa 12 new characters ok that a bit much and the whole we protect the universe from the wither Strom which that raises ALOT of question for me especially when you think about other universes like the lord eclipse universe were they are destroyed but Gemini say they can die but not say stay dead what about Ruin eclipse universe with the drained star, what about the universe where lunar is the cosmic master and eclipse is his servant. Like raises alot of questions
I don't know.
I don't have any big thoughts about the Astral Bodies other then they're cool, and I can't wait to see my zodiac sign.
Which will probably take awhile.
Going by the stereotype of any Zodiac themed characters Sagittarius is usually aloof and the last to get introduced and involved in big plots. It's kinda like the Sailor Pluto of the group.
I do know @ayyy-imma-ninja made some of the designs for them.
(and I haven't seen them, for very obvious reasons)
But if Gemini and Castor and Pollux's design is anything to go by, I'll probably like them a whole lot.
It's like that euphoria when a new Steven Universe Gem is introduced like "HELLO NEW GEM PERSON LET ME KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU"
I don't have any big plot ideas other then excitement and eagerness.

This is going to out me as the anon but I got too many ideas and wanted to show really bad how the au designs are in my brain because a lot of @scrap-brainzone 's stuff inspired with it and aus so this is a babble about it and some extra info on my aus!
(also at the end I made a doodle of gaige x ty x moze specifically in thanks and also to show appreciation as a gift)
ALSO SUPER SORRY THIS IS GOING TO BE A GIANT POST.
Tumblr media
Going simple first, I wanted to show the differences, although I haven't touched Angelic Guardian in awhile and Hyperion brand new with posting I wanted to show anyways- I'll add tidbit about each under this, so sorry for anyone trying to decipher my chicken scratch
Underneath Ms Ceos heavy ass eyeliner and makeup is the eridium effects as displayed here, she's went under several different surgeries repeatedly trying to hide any of the effects and uses cameras and altering her look digitally to her advantage. Her big problem is she Can't let people know because she fears if people knew, they're going to try and kidnap her again. (Mildly irrational considering all her security but it's a fair worry.) She hasn't touched eridium since the end of BL2, so she's most clean, but with how much she had the damage has been done.
Ah, Fallen Heir au. Angel's given up caring about who sees, only hiding before to stay away from the Crimson Raiders and cultists, but after both sides know? It's so what to her. She's technically the most fit and least afraid to use her abilities because she doesn't care as much about hurting others around her. If I were to describe her attitude/self in one sentence of dialog it'd basically be, "They refuse to see me as anything but a monster, so that's what I'll be."
Alas, my dear Angelic Guardian. As you can see, she's very much not holding up well. Her suit uses eridium to help keep her going but still at what cost? She's technically extremely fit, but the repercussions are severe if she pushes too far. Her level of eridium poisoning is beyond dangerous, having been in stasis for 5 years while still receiving eridium to keep her alive. I'll end it here by saying this has severe consequences that unfortunately, she was doomed to face regardless.
Ai Ange? Well. Not very much of anything but mild traits. I, in turn, made one for Gaige with that au.
Tumblr media
Angel isn't very the most comfortable with Gaige using eridium, mainly due to the fact its less "as needed" but she likes to test limits and see what she can really do.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
moving on I made some goofies and such from my Fallen au, wanting to show interactions (Mildly for also scrap because I know tyreen and tygaige a favorite)
Tygaige alas, would heavy struggle unless we get villain redemption pt 2 like Angel, but she won't be very pleased about it at first before accepting. I'm a sucker for Gaigel, so it'll lean that way, but to entertain the idea would be interesting. I might do that sometime.
if you're curious though with Angel there, it is a shitpost and I have drawn it with the idea Tyreen was monologing, but Angel just turned off her shield and straight up shot a bitch. (Tyreen easily healed with eridium but it was the audacity that was most surprising) the fallen au is pretty funny because besides that, she's also: Made Troy punch himself, then also has made his arm punch Tyreen. Will hack their shows if she's upset enough and fucks with their things. General fun, yknow. An issue Ange faces in the end is because she's so "eridium enriched" it's like double tasty snack to the twins, so that's always fun. (In fairness to Troy and with another drawing, Angel in this au has also made Gaige punch herself a few times when she got upset. She's very petty and I support it)
AND LASTLY
Tumblr media
This is a mild gift to scrap-brainzone! I'm really sorry thr quality and coloring isn't the best on this (or most of the images), I was mildly rushing from time and far too excited to finish this and post it to show.
FUCK I REALIZED I DIDNT ADD THE BLUSHES. GOD. I'll do it tomorrow and edit or reblog this one, god I knew I was forgetting something-
The trio may not be my personal cup of tea, but it is very cute and I couldn't stop laughing/thinking about a post similar about the White Girl Swag so I wanted to be silly and make one
I'm too loyal to Gaigel, but who doesn't like to look and toy with other ideas? I never considered it much until seeing their art and it good shit, how could i not? Anyways, rambling, hope this isn't too bad or shoddy of a gift, I'll hopefully make something better soon, I was just too excited to post and show
anyone else who.made it this far you should totally totally go to scrap-brainzone 's blog it's great good shit 100/10 👍

Spirit Train Adventure
ao3 ff.net
Phew! It's been awhile since I written for Legend of Zelda. And this probably sucks because I legit haven't played Spirit Tracks in years, so I apologize if this sucks. Also, I written ZeLink for the first time! Yay me! Spirit Tracks ZeLink is actually really cute!
But, the reason I decided to try my hand writing Legend of Zelda again is because April Fools Day on the Zelda Universe forums turned Zelda Universe into Train Universe...And I suddenly got the idea to write a post game Spirit Tracks fanfic.
Also it's a great time for me to thank the Zelda Universe forums for providing such a positive environment where I always felt safe. I owe you guys.
Spirit Tracks is an underrated game! Anyway, I hope somebody enjoys this. Thanks for reading!
~~~~~
After months of living a boring princess life, the hallways in the castle were brimming with Zelda's excited cries.
"Link is back! He's finally back!"
The royal workers were either taken aback or overjoyed that the hero of Hyrule had returned. Zelda wholeheartedly supported Link's decision to be an engineer. He was too kindhearted to be a hot-blooded fighter, and after everything he did for them, he deserved to follow his heart.
Sometimes, Zelda thought about Link being a royal knight and being able to see him every day, but that was just a fantasy she kept to herself. Link traveled to places Zelda could only imagine, and she couldn't wait for Link to tell her more stories. It may have been a few months, but it was far too long for Zelda.
Without advising anyone, Zelda packed herself a bag and followed her own heart as she ran for the castle gates. One of her advisors was shocked and called Zelda back, but Zelda smiled confidently at her advisor.
"I'll be back, I promise! I need to see Link again!"
Her advisor was taken aback but felt he couldn't reason with the young princess. Zelda happily escaped the castle to head to the train station.
~~~~~
Link didn't mean to be gone so long, but finally being back in Castle Town again felt right as he removed his hat and wiped sweat off his forehead. The young engineer was happy to see everyone again and was bashful about the townsfolk calling him a hero.
He wished he could see her before the passenger train made its way to his seaside home. Alfonzo noticed Link's weariness.
"It's great to be back again, ain't it Link?" The veteran engineer teased.
"Uh!" Link shook and hid his blushing face, and Alfonzo laughed in response.
"No need to be so embarrassed kid! I'm sure Zelda could never forget you!"
Link wanted to believe that. But a lot can change in the months they were apart. They were on entirely different paths, and their adventure together seemed like a distant memory.
"Hey!!!! Link!!!!!"
Link gasped, wondering if he was dreaming. But then his vision went into focus, and he saw the young princess wearing a cloak and carrying a bag. All the people gathered around and noted that Princess Zelda was there.
"Zelda!!!" Link cried.
Zelda giggled and smiled at him. As happy as Link was, he wondered what she was doing here in a simple train station instead of in her lavish castle. But all rational thought was gone when she threw herself into his arms. Link held her close, and he closed his eyes, content that they were together again.
"I missed you so much Link!"
"I missed you too Zelda!"
The crowd watching them gave a few soft responses, along with Alfonzo, who watched the two children and smiled proudly.
"Oh, you kids are so adorable!"
Zelda blushed and broke the hug as she quickly picked up her bag. "Oh, Alfonzo, I am so happy to see you as well!"
Alfonzo tipped his hat. "I am pleased to see you're in good health, your highness."
"But shouldn't you be back at the castle, Zelda?" Link seemed a bit overprotective, but who could blame him?
The princess merely shook her head.
"Link, I don't want to wait for you again. Wherever you're going next, I want to go too!"
Oh Hylia! Old feelings Link felt so long ago were coming back to him. But he couldn't just travel the world with Zelda every day and night…
…As much as he wanted to.
Link grinned and placed his hand behind his head. "The train is heading to Aboda Village Zelda."
"Perfect!" Zelda beamed. "Let's go right now!"
Link just couldn't say no to Zelda's desire for adventure.
~~~~~
Zelda adored traveling on this beautiful passenger train and talking to the passengers. One secret she kept to herself was looking back fondly to when she was a ghost and would fly freely as Link conducted his tiny train.
She would remember it forever, even if she knew the circumstances weren't the best.
Another memory she adored was how relaxing it was for gentle train sounds to lull her to sleep on beautiful nights.
But Zelda couldn't sleep tonight because she had to meet Link.
It was wonderful that Link was following his dreams. Still, he was the youngest train engineer ever, and Zelda was curious if Link ate dinner.
Zelda tiptoed through the bedroom train and continued until she reached the first locomotive that Link was handling.
When Zelda opened the door, Link was still as energized as ever, and she couldn't help but watch him in his passion. She was stunned that Link was handling this entire train by himself while Alfonzo was sleeping; it inspired her so much.
"It's all smooth sailing from here," Link chuckled. "Sailing? I would get seasick."
Link turned around and yawned while stretching, and Zelda couldn't help but giggle. Then Link opened his eyes.
"Zelda!"
Zelda smiled nonchalantly and winked. "Good evening, captain."
"Zelda! You should be sleeping!"
Zelda stepped closer and took his hand. "As much as the sound of trains always helps me sleep, I wanted to spend time with you."
"Oh…" Link turned and hid his blush while running his fingers through his hair. "Well, it's nothing special…"
Zelda blushed and looked down. "It just brings back memories."
Link turned back and offered his hand to the princess, smiling confidently.
"Well, I would want nothing more than to have you beside me Princess."
Zelda smiled and took his hand. She felt like she was flying as she and Link were able to travel by train with the kingdom, which was so peaceful and rid of darkness.
Eventually, Link and Zelda turned their heads as they passed the Tower of Spirits.
Memories lingered of the friends they made that disappeared when their journey ended.
Before they knew it, multiple gentle spirits appeared around them as the train went by. Link was on his guard again, but Zelda took his hand and soothed it. "It's okay," she whispered.
Zelda stepped forward and started singing her ballad for the spirits.
Link wanted to listen to her all night but had to focus. When Zelda finished the first verse, she turned back to Link to smile at him. However, she was stunned when Link revealed that he still had the spirit flute.
Zelda gasped, but Link merely smiled at her. Zelda placed her hand on her heart and closed her eyes as she continued singing while Link played the flute.
The spirits and the sleeping passengers heard their duet's sound. When Link and Zelda finished their duet, they giggled at each other. But then bright lights appeared before them, and they saw that the spirit tracks returned.
Link tried to take control of the train, but the spirits surrounded it and caused it to float toward the stars above them. Link and Zelda gasped and worried for all the passengers, but then they were in awe of how beautiful this trip across the stars was.
Zelda took Link's hand and teleported them to the top of the train, where both of them saw the spirits safely taking them on a magical journey. Zelda hugged Link and giggled, and Link smiled warmly.
Both of them felt the good spirits giving their gratitude, and then the spirits set the train safely back on the tracks on the ground. Zelda quickly teleported them back inside the train.
It was another small, much safer adventure that Link and Zelda would always remember.
~~~~~
The sun was bright the next morning, and Zelda was still sleeping soundly against the wall with a blanket wrapped around her, even though cuccos were making their morning calls.
Link was still on top of his conducting, but when he saw Aboda Village in the distance, he yawned and turned back to Zelda. He smiled down at her and noted how adorable she looked while sleeping.
"Zelda, wake up."
Zelda yawned as she rubbed her eyes.
"Zelda, we're here!"
Zelda gasped and stood up, letting go of the blanket. "Really?"
Link nodded, and he pulled the rope to activate the train horn.
Zelda grinned and took her chance to pull the train horn as well.
The horn was heard by the entire village. The villagers headed straight for the station as the train finally arrived. Link and Zelda had to let the passengers off first, and the two children giggled as Alfonzo got off the train and greeted the villagers with funny jokes.
When Link and Zelda finally got off the train, they were surprised to see the children holding up banners saying, "Welcome home Link!" and "Welcome Princess Zelda!"
And a huge flurry of confetti surrounded them.
And if that wasn't enough, Alfonzo surprised Link and Zelda by lifting them up and putting them on his shoulders. Link and Zelda couldn't be more over the moon celebrating with everyone.
"Three cheers for the heroes of Hyrule!"
"Hip! Hip! Hooray!"
"Hip! Hip! Hooray!"
"Hip! Hip! Hooray!"
Link and Zelda would have fun and celebrate with all of Aboda Village. But after a few hours, Zelda noticed a strange presence, and Link asked her what was wrong. Zelda wouldn't let anything ruin this day for them and just told him that everything was fine.
Zelda was right about one thing.
The Lokomo Sages smiled at the young heroes at a distance before disappearing again.
They would always watch over the princess and the hero.
Link and Zelda played their duet again for the entire village to hear, and the spirits that surrounded them were a gentle presence for the village forevermore.

okay so like i was gonna just start on this tonight and get the general ideas down and finish this when i was Awake and Functioning but then i started rambling so uhhh jazz handss
take me describing the diff energies ur fics give off, i am sorry if this is uncomprehensible fjwaewf (is that even a word?? incomprehensible? ye-)
through a glass divine: DEFFFF rainy day vibes, the au feels very Elegant to me even though glass!wilbur himself is very much not, when I read glass I get the same vibes as being in a car /pos, it's comforting but can get intense at times, sometimes with no warning. like one minute your head is against the glass (heh, pun unintended lol), and ur looking out at the streetlamps, the next the breaks are SLAMMED and u get whacked against the seatbelt lmfaoooo (this is all /pos !! i love the angst lol)
world forgetting: FOGGG, that's the first thought that pops into my head, things are unclear first and it's a little eerie but there's also something comforting about it (i will use this word a lot bc . well ur writing is comforting hehehe), the first half of wf was very exciting, it reminded me of when i used to have my mcu marathons, edge of my seat, shoving popcorn into my face, and just glee, the first few chapters with wf especially with the combat made me so fucking giddy lmfaooo i had so much fun reading it, the second half was a lot more calm and melancholy, it was defff sitting on the couch while it rains outside vibes, like MM the hurt comfort?? give me a blanket and a pillow to squeeze bc hot damnn
stars and their children: stars man . hooweeee, this fic was binging a 12 season show vibes, you invest a lot into it and wow the emotional damage?? for real. this fic was late night rants at sleepovers, theorizing n coming up with silly conspiracy theories (i think this was when i really started reading the asks, so for me it has a lot of those vibes tied to it), when i read stars… i feel a lot of Awe. it feels big, it feels important, it also feels like im reading a very fancy novel from a very big library, like i feel like i've stepped into a massive multi-tiered library and plucked my favourite book from its shelf, i can imagine the hardcover being absolutely gorgeous, it gives me the same vibes as getting assigned a book to read in class and having your mind blown /pos from it, like "damn i understand why they make us read this bc wow"
(fun fact i have ur ao3 page bookmarked on my toolbar lmaoooo)
honey and tangerines: well . this one just gives me island and coastal vibes lolll u described them very well, but okay from a reading perspective? besides indie movie lmao. i'd say… hanging out with a friend you haven't seen in a while. it's familiar, it's bittersweet, it's thrilling. honey and tangerines gives me the vibes of doing something youve been wanting to for awhile but were always too scared to. pushing your boundaries. it's all those classic "finally living life vibes", staying out till 3 am, finally getting around to decorating your room, going on a roadtrip. when i read honey and tangerines, it feels like i'm experiencing life. all the prev fics either feel like novels or movies, but hats feels like life
what the water gave me: ngl when i read this i just feel such pure emotion that i cry like idek how to explain it man. it's so all encompassing /pos it does give me staying up late in my room with fairy lights vibes though, dunno why. just gives off that same warm energy
A DUSTY TOMB OMGGOJEAWE i need to reread that anyways
a dusty tomb: straight off the bat, playing dnd. dnd is so much fun and i have so many happy memories from it and a dusty tomb defff gives off those vibes, chaos, freeing, family. it also gives off the vibe of finding a piece of old writing in a buried notebook and reading it and going "wtf?? when did i write this this is amazing" maybe that's just bc it feels like u read my mind writing it lmao it's perfect i adore it so much and i have reread it an unholy amount of times, i just get the vibes of sitting criss cross on the floor and reading it, it's not necessarily a comfy position but it's enjoyable nonetheless, just a happy moment for oneself, it feels like giving yourself a treat, self care, all of that good stufff
no time confounds me: def feels like watching a tv show /pos, it def feels like smth i'd put on w my stepmom or my birth mom and just absolutely fucking Vibe to it bro, that fic is suchhh a vibe, i'd sink into my couch and get HOOKED, it also ofc brings w it all the vibes of just where i live LMAO, and the motorcycling reminds me of my dad <333 i miss motorcycling with him dawggg it's so much fun, but yeahhh. all the vibes described in the fic just make me want to go out for a hike in a forest lmao, i love it. also hot chocolate. this fic is defff drinking hot chocolate vibes
nocturnal animals: ooohh this one is defff late night vibes, working late on hw and looking out ur window and just taking a moment to appreciate the stars n stuff, also windy day vibes, this def feels like a novel my friend would shove at me to read and i'd be like "brooo i dont even LIKE vampires" and theyd be like "no bro just trust me" and then i'd be really bored one day so i'd pick it up and then get addicted . and then in this hypothetical series that has like a billion books i'd go to the library and borrow them all and binge them in a week lmfao, i love this fic sm ngl, i would proudly display this fic on my bookshelf (well i mean, i would literally display all of ur fics on my bookshelf KING i would have a shelf dedicated to ur fics 100%)
okay… i think those are all the main fics, there're a couple more that i've read but i am . getting really really reallyyy tired and idek if any of this is comphrensible lmfaooo 😭 😭 😭
i hope u enjoyed bee <333 tldr: i love ur writing and i have core memories attached to all of these fics and they are all special to me in their own way <33
ohhhh these are so cool to read icy (sorry it took me so long to respond I've been so busy lately)
lmao love all the drama in glass being compared to a car braking super suddenly. rainy car drives is definitely not the vibe I think it has in my head but that's super sweet to imagine :)
comparing stars to a Big Fancy Book makes me so happy thank you so much. I have this absolutely gorgeous fancy version of Dune with a stunning cover and I always imagine something kind of similar as the 'cover' for stars in my head so i love that you imagine that too
in contrast you and i feel the exact same about honey and tangerines. it's definitely that kind of bittersweet reconciling friendship vibe. saying it feels like life means so much thank you <33 thats exactly what I was going for
to me what the water gave me feels like swimming in a warm tropical ocean at night which might be a bit on the nose but yeah that's what I think of. but fairy lights in a room sounds so nice I love that
awww I love that idea for dusty tomb. just rereading something nostalgic and wonderful and feeling so comforted by it. that makes me smile a lot to imagine :)
hot chocolate and watching a tv show YEAHHHH you get it that's exactly what i was going for from no time confounds me. also that's so funny that you mention motorcycling with your dad bc that's where my descriptions of riding motorcycles comes from. my dad always used to pick me up from school on his motorcycle when I was a little kid, it was so much fun
oooo windy day for nocturnal animals is interesting but I love it. also god you saying it feels like a series with dozens of books reminds me of this vampire series i read in middle school that had like 10 books it's absolutely nothing like nocturnal animals but now I'm having a nostalgia trip thinking about it lol
thank you icy this was so sweet to read :)

Unwritten fics asks 5 and 9 please :)
thank you for asking!!
I ad this wild idea about a pon farr fic and I haven't written one for awhile (like a decade, so...) it was time. (and I love awkward Michael more than anything)
5. Is there any scene you're excited about writing?
I'm not a very visual person. I don't picture much in fic. I had an image or this one, and it's Laira in her fantastic nightgown, sitting her quarters, off duty. I'ts late and night, and Michael's darling crew-family come to ask her to have sec with Michael and save her life.
And I can picture them, all uniforms and maybe jackets off, black t-shirts and casual. Very starfleet, very comfortable.
And Laira has this incredible nightgown (it should be blue, and v-necked and long, like period nightgown, if Gersha made it, it would be gorgeous).
I love the contrast of outfits and what it says about who they are. Also she'd be really gorgeous, and that's important for the blood fever pining.
And it's her personal time, she's not in her suit, she's undressed and vulnerable (and she'd have a robe) and she'd be vulnerable but not because shes secure in her own power and beauty and...
I think it's in Joann's pov too and she's such a pleasant one. She's so classy and kind and thoughtful. I love Joann.
9. Is there anything in the fic you're not so excited about writing?
The sex parts. I love the build up and the flirting and the tension and the talking about it, because Michael is so wonderfully Michael about things. All of that's fun and how do we afterwards and what are we know and this didn't mean anything but it did mean something and it's all right that it meant something, what really happens now...all of that is fun.
The actual sex scene is so difficult and I feel like I don't write it well and it's stressful. If one partner is compromised how do I make sure it's very consensual? (though that part is sexy because how you manage that (very slowly) when there's an urgency (have sex or die) is a fun tnesion to have.
I don't think I've been competent enough of a writer before, to be able to write it as well as I should have, so all the lead up around the sex and after the sex is fun.
Sex itself is so hard to write (for me). I don't think I'm any good at it at all, when the other parts I am confident abut.

hope this isn’t nosy (or if it is, nosy in a good way 😅💕) but I am 👀 about your wedding bell blues inspo posts - any chance you could give a little sneak peek on the theme/characters?
I always love your writing and aus so much - I am so curious!! 💖 hope you have a great weekend!
No cause seeing this in my inbox this morning literally made me smile so much. Literally I love when people are nosy about my fic ideas. I am going to spill so much now, because you asked and I am excited.
So Wedding Bell Blues is a very old Javi fic idea that I just wrote down for fun. I never actually planned on writing it or plotting it, because I had stopped writing for him for awhile. BUTTTT the spark of inspo for him is kind of back so I'm going to try to write it again.
It is not an exact AU of My Best Friend's Wedding, but it is heavily inspired by it. Javi is NOT the groom/best friend, but rather the person you call (hence the second best friend) when you let slip a lie that you're dating someone to play off how madly in love with the groom you are. The twist is though while Javi is making a big play about being indifferent and bored - he's madly in love with you and has been for years. You just haven't seen it yet.

Author’s note: A repost from my other blog - to new beginnings 
Pairing: Kotaro Bokuto x Reader
WC: 1,081
Tags: gym setting, gender neutral reader, fluff, SFW
♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎
It's your first time going to the gym after a couple years, since high school. The active side of you died after you started university, essays and exams killing your free time and motivation. After a few friends started going, you got a boost of motivation to go again. Plus you got to hang with them between workouts. It was at the end of your first week, when you saw a familiar face in the weights area. It was Kotaro Bokuto from Fukurōdani academy. 
He looked different than he did back in high school. He got beefier, broader shoulders and a bigger chest, his pecs are more prominent now. However, you can tell he's still the same Bokuto from high school, with his bubbly and eager personality. You were glad that you were a bit sweaty, the sweat made your cheeks flushed and shiny, camouflaging the blush. You always had a small crush on Bokuto, his confidence and how he expressed himself is what reeled you in. People always called him immature and childish with his tantrums during matches. Maybe he was but you didn't mind because you knew he cared a lot and was passionate about the sport he loved. 
You haven't seen Bokuto since graduation, you doubt he remembers you, you were quiet and blended into the crowd back in high school. As you were taking your sight off him, his eyes glazed over the treadmills, at your direction. When his golden eyes saw yours, they widened as did his mouth, showing a huge grin. He let go of the handles of his row machine and waved at you. You waved back, a part of you happy that he remembered you and another embarrassed that he saw you in your sweaty state. 
When Bokuto was done with his reps, he made his way to you. You paused your workout on the treadmill and got off. 
"Heyy (L/N), how are you? It's been awhile, you look good." He said while looking at you, scanning you from head to toe.
"Hey Bokuto, thanks" you began to fiddle with your fingers.
"yeah it's been awhile, since graduation. I'm good, how about you?" You meet his gaze.
"Ah me, nothing really. Just training to get into a good team in the league, I have tryouts for a couple of teams coming up." He said this while scratching the back of his head, sounded like he really didn't want to talk about himself right now
"Nothing really, Bo that is something. Good for you! I'm sure you're going to get into one of those teams, they'll be lucky to have you!" 
Bokuto gives you a soft smile, you can see a hint of a blush on his face. 
"You really mean that?" You nodded quickly
"of course I do!!"
"Thank you, I appreciate it. Anyways enough about me, let's talk about you! How's life treating you?"
You put your hands on your hips while looking at the floor, gathering your thoughts. "It's been okay, nothing much really, just focusing on school. Coming to the gym is the most exciting thing that has happened to me in a bit. It's actually my first week here"
"Really? That's so cool that you came here, I have been coming to this gym for forever. I'm happy to see a familiar face again, especially yours." You were surprised at his words
"How are you liking it so far?"
"I like it! I'm still afraid of the weight machines though, I don't want to pull something" 
"In that case, how about I show you around and show you how the machines work?" He said excitedly 
"Are you sure? I don't want to take away from your routine." 
"It's no problem, it's always good to have a gym buddy, we can train together even!" His eyes getting bigger by the second of how psyche he was about the idea
"Sounds like a good idea but I'm still just a beginner" You look at him sheepishly
"Hey! Everyone starts out as a beginner, you have nothing to worry about" He went to grab your shoulders and gives them a gently squeeze
"Okay, okay you convinced me haha" 
"Great! So it's a date, see you later, gym buddy" and with that Bokuto left to go back to the weights area
A date huh?
Over the next few days and weeks, you and Bokuto made a habit of meeting each other at the entrance and walking in together. Making small talk on the way over to the lockers and changing rooms. After the warm up, he would show you how to use a new machine or how better your form at a machine you had experience in. This led to some "intimate" moments between him and you. Either his arms were around yours or around your waist. You would make eye contact with each other for a few seconds and quickly look away, a blush usually making its appearance on both of your faces. It's something out of a cheesy rom-com movie.
One day after training was over, you walked out side-by-side. Your Hands are almost touching. Bokuto was tired of not expressing his true feelings towards you. Bokuto forces you to stop by grabbing your arms and making you look at him.
Those moments fuelled the feelings you had for him. Not knowing that it also fuelled the feelings he had for you. He hoped that by calling this little routine you two had a date, it would make it clear that he liked you.
"(Y/n)... I really like you, would you like to go on a real date with me? He said without catching a breath
Your eyes blinked rapidly multiple times, having a hard time to process his words. Did Kotaro Bokuto just ask you out?? You quickly answered, in hopes that this wasn't a dream or an alternative universe you fell into.
"I like you too Bo... a lot! I would love to go on a date with you" you shot him a grin, mirroring the same grin he gave you back during your first week at the gym.
"I'm so glad! I can finally say how cute you look when lifting weights" He said while giving you a bear hug, moving you side to side
You pulled away afterwards 
"I look cute when lifting weights?" You raised an eyebrow
"Bo honey, I look sweaty when I lift weights."
He replies with a "yeahh and what's your point?"

Life Update, Game Updates.
Hey guys,
As I mentioned in my  post yesterday, things have been pretty hard recently. I actually fractured my foot a couple weeks ago on my way to work, and am currently unable to walk. My job refused to give me sick pay, because my 'average weekly earnings were not high enough', which is funny considering I was a full-time worker.
All in all it was just their roundabout way of saying that I wasn't entitled to sick pay, because I haven't worked there long enough. Long story short, I just put in my 2 weeks for the job because I just didn't have the will to fight a losing battle. So, now I'm currently looking for a new job remote from home, so money's been tight, made that much worse by the increase in the cost of living. 
I was also supposed to get a mortgage to move into a better house and area, but looks like that may not be in the works right now. Something that I was extremely excited for, even postponed going back to University for. The career I chose to go into years ago is no longer what I want to peruse.
Worse, its becoming one of the main things that deteriorates my mental health further, not to mention my poor mother is extremely overworked, underpaid and suffering from her own physical ailments. ​And, I'm not exactly helping things either as the eldest, with me being bedbound and now out of a job. Though she doesn't hold it over my head, which only makes the guilt that much worse.
Mentally, physically, emotionally and financially I just feel drained. I'm trying to hold onto things that give me enjoyment, like making my games. As well as maintaining a positive attitude, because the last thing I want is for my depression to take hold of my life like it used to.  Whilst I look for a new job, I actually plan to take a break from doing asks on Tumblr and what not to start my patreon again.
This time better than ever, as I now know what I'll be doing and what to offer, after looking at what other creators are doing for ideas. I'll still try to answer any questions you guys may have and reply to any comments, it's just sometimes I get overstimulated and completely shut down at times. So if I'm taking a bit of time to do something, please just be patient with me, I really am trying. 
So for now I won't be updating the public demos for awhile, as I want to work on the alpha build for patreon, as well as other patreon content. When I do so, I then want to start looking for beta testers to take a bit off of my plate, because looking back through all the coding and story content is something that frustrates me beyond belief, and again is very overstimulating for me.
In addition to a 'Coding Advisor' of sorts with the beta testers or amongst the best testers, someone who can help me properly code in things that I can't seem to find the solution for myself. Because as I've mentioned before, I'm still new to coding and there are many things I'm still unable to do, e.g. coding in a 'dark mode' for readers. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to pay any of these people, but they would be credited in my work. 
So, yeah that's been my life, if you managed to actually read through everything above, good on you. I probably would've looked at all that lengthy text and clicked off, lol. But, despite all the depressing stuff above, I just want to take the time to thank each and every one of you for you love and support.
From the views, downloads and playthroughs to the kind comments, constructive criticism, game ratings, follows, likes, questions/asks, artwork, reposts and payments. As well as, adding my games to your collections, or by simply just showing a genuine interest. I thank you for every contribution you've every made in any way, because no matter how small it may seem to you. It really does mean a lot, and continues to push me forward, through some really hard times ♡

I'm curious, are you still into DuckTales? And were you also disappointed with the lack of character development with Gyro after 'Astro B.O.Y.D.' (including the lack of development of his relationship with Boyd and Fenton, as we barely know what their interactions look like)? What were you personally hoping for?
Hey there! Sorry I haven't been around much. Yes, I still love Ducktales! I've been a Disney Duck fan since I was a kid so that love isn't ever going away. I got the deluxe artbook just the other day, and I'm excited to eventually finish the Boyd and Gyro fic... it's just probably going to take awhile. It's a big story and I want to do a good job, telling it well :) But I did feel pretty let down by the end of the series, and the fandom has gotten pretty quiet… Not to mention I've gone through a lot of big life changes, so I haven't had as much time for writing fic or drawing fanart. Yeah I was disappointed by the lack of Boyd and Gyro after they had such a fantastic story in Astro Boyd, but I understand why we didn't get to see them any more - the crew was struggling to try and tie up all their loose ends with the short span of time they had left. But frankly I think they could have done a better job and used their time more wisely, and that some of the things they made episodes about were ideas that should have been in season 2 or 1.... But it is what it is. I think in a lot of ways they were phoning it in during season 3 and so there were some real stinker episodes as a result. I was really hoping to see Dr. Akita come back with FOWL, even if only as a silent cameo, but I knew deep in my heart that we wouldn't get that... Realistically Boyd's presence in the narrative should have been a game changer, he's a powerful ally for the McDuck family, and it would have been much more interesting to see FOWL develop a countermeasure for him, rather than just find the "funniest"way to nerf him in the finale lol. (The combat robot that destroyed a major world city has their head fall off in a plane crash but the flesh and blood children are all completely unharmed?) Hell, I would have accepted "Boyd was damaged in the fight during Tokyolk so we can't take him with us" or something like that, if they really wanted to write him out of the conflict. Or "Boyd jumps out of the plane to deal with the missiles and gets hurt in the process". If I had my way, I would have taken Launchpad's big hero moment and moved it to the Darkwing 2-parter episode, and I would have taken Manny's reveal and put it in the Halloween episode, and that would have improved both of those eps (which were also lacking IMO), and bam, now there's more time to allow Gyro, Fenton and Boyd to do things in the finale.
I know I would have liked to see Boyd helping Huey somehow... and it would have been nice to see Gyro asking Fenton for help and acknowledging his competence... Maybe instead of Launchpad wearing the Gizmosuit, Gyro getting to wear it (since it was originally for him), but then afterwards admitting that it's better if Fenton wears it... Stuff like that! Sorry if this got a bit long and rambly, but I hope it answers some of your questions!

Due to peer pressure I am going to be rambling about my GotG insert under the cut. Lots of writing, just a warning.
Part 2 will sadly be made.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So a few things before we start. I rewrote all of the mcu in a over 240+ page doc. This is just what I thought was important.
Very obviously self insert. Its my horribly written hyperfixatipn and I get to put myself in it to kiss my husband and make it better
Tony didn't freaking die. Idk I think he's kinda important for what a mid character he is.
after the gauntlet was destroyed as was the stone Gamora died for, she came back. Woo!! I hate this series so much. Widow isn't back because that stone was in a different time.
Peter is half celestial, quarter spartanax, quarter human. I love the TV series for doing that. keeping it.
superior gamora design from the comics. Love those white circles.
I hate that like they made ONE MONTH PASS BETWEEN THE FIRST AND THE SECOND MOVIE. Fixing that. Second movie takes five years after the first, the time between the second and Infinity War takes 6 years.
Now I'll drop how I perceive the main gang
Peter - Personality: Movies | design: movies | Backstory: movies
Gamora - personality: TV show | design: comics/novels | backstory: movies
Rocket - personality: novels | design: movies/comics | backstory: movies
Drax - personality: movies | design: TV show | backstory: TV show/movies
Groot???? - personality: novels | design: all ig?? | BACKSTORY: TV show!!!!!!!!!
》》》
OKAY NOW WE START
My insert, Lici, is a Terran Assassin that works for the Italian, American, and Japanese government. Only hand to hand combat and only used weapons for instant kills.
Killing a kree leader that was in disguse on Terra, she had no idea what Kree were and that she killed one, she was abducted and sent to prison. Not the Klyn.
She escapes, and decides that she likes the space life better!! It's time to become a space assassin!!!
Got there when she was 19, spent 5 years messing around. 24 when she meets the gang.
Very odd day. Just so happened to get arrested and put into the klyn around the same time all of them did.
"Wow... you're really pale for kree! Weird. Most kree girls are bright pink"
"I'm Terran. Sorry"
"what."
Peter gets super excited and immediately starts going off about his tragic backstory while she stands there extremely confused and concerned. "0-0 I just met you"
Quill drags her along for the ride escaping prison, going to Tivan, the ravagers, and fighting Ronan.
They all succeed, and the Nova Corps wipe away all their previous crimes. Allowing them to now do mostly good... from now on.
Now in one giant ship, a team.
The first week is super awkward. Quiet. Rooms haven't been assigned. No music at all because Quill has headphones in as they wander space.
Lici decides its time to break the mold!!! She immediately gets into some comfy clothes, and decided to make dinner and listen to music loudly.
Big mistake.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Drax takes lyrics too literal and it takes him awhile to finally understand them as a whole. But after the incident the finally are comfortable relaxing a bit more and realize they all have a love of music.
The finally get rooms situated as well!
Tumblr media
Rocket, Groot, and Lici all share a previous storage room. She gets a mattress on the floor, Baby gets his plant on the window sill. Rocket gets a hammock above them both.
Drax and Gamora share a bedroom while Peter gets his own room.
Since majority of their time is spent on the ship it becomes more and more homey. It takes awhile to get places and it also may take time for orders/people in genuine danger to come in.
Only reasonable thing is to make cassette tapes for everyone and their specific taste. They share personal favorite foods, experiences. Lici becomes the designated cooker/ship cleaner.
They're mostly friends. Not exactly a family yet.
One day Peter requests they go to earth and go grocery shopping. As he's tired of the alien food and REALLY REALLY WANTS poptarts and all the other name brands.
Gang agrees. And while the trip to Terra's sector, Lici walks over to Rocket who is piloting.
"Hey uhhhh... you're good with Tech right??"
"Nearly 5 months living together and you're asking me that?"
"Can you take out tracking devices?"
"Depends. Where?"
She motions to her left thigh and right arm. "Government put them in in case I ever decided to ditch and expose them. I don't wanna get Mac n cheese and suddenly be ambushed by officals."
"Yeah I gotcha. I'll take em out"
A very odd way of bonding, but it's an execption that he allows someone to actually touch him. So while he rips her tigh open to get the tracker out, she's sitting there aggressively holding the couch and part of his arm. Same applies to her arm.
They wrap her up, hook her up to a small blood transfusion and get groceries.
The two of them get more comfortable together. As over the next 5 years they are raising a super small tree in a storage room.
Th holidays come around and Peter has honestly forgotten about those sort of things. Abducted at such a young age, she brings it up and they excitedly decorate the place.
Lights are set up, a poster by the living room talks about the gift giving and she starts making holiday sweets just about every night.
One night she wakes up, waking up her roommate, unaware. She starts he morning sweet making to which he follows.
She's humming, like usual and he clears his throat.
"AH- Oh. Did I wake you?"
"No I'm here on my own intent. I set an alarm and everything...." small pause. "Its like 2 am. Why are you up."
"Mhmm... I wanted to make muffins for breakfast. And also holiday cookies and brownies."
"Yes well. Quill doesn't wake up until 10 am Earth time and it doesn't take 8 hours to make muffins. Kiddos gonna wake up and go "oh where's mommy and daddy!!! Time to cry!!!""
".... mommy?"
"That's the part you pay attention too???"
"I'm up cause I couldn't sleep...." She pauses. Waving a baggie. "Wanna help me frost?"
So he does, and they mess around getting frosting everywhere and laughing. He then decided... fine. I'll participate in gift giving. Because she... kinda deserves it.
Gift day comes around and everyone is given something. (Excluding drax who everyone all agreed they couldn't think of anything, and he replied "the greatest gift is company" ((nerd)))
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
She gives Peters elemental blaster an upgrade. Gamora a engraved sword, and Rock a new gun holster.
He pulls her to the side and gives her his gift. Cant let people know he ACTUALLY PUT EFFORT. She gets the trademarked hair pins that she never takes out after she gets them.
Both get pest parent mugs.
After that they start hanging out more. More close friends. Close enough to share her mattress. Wow.
As Drax and Quill have their friendship, they have theirs. like everyone has their own built friendships??
Quill and Gamora have the unspoken thing. Quill and Rocket are bickering engineers. Quill and Lici are the Humans. Lici and Gamora or Sucks being the only Girls Club. You GET THE GIST OF IT. At the end of it all they're a family.
Tumblr media
5 years post the first movie, Groot's 5 now and they are far more comfortable than they were before.
After the fight against the giant beast for the sovereign, Lici stares straight into Rockets eyes as he steals the batteries and two keep the straightest eye contact.
"Really?"
"Whaaatt?? Anulax batteries are a once in a life time grab."
They meet the high priestess, the fly away happens. And they crash. They meet ego, and immediately everyone is suspicious. Quill agrees to go with him along with Drax and Gamora
Lici stays with Rocket, and helps rebuild the ship and watch nebula. He goes to set up traps, she watches the kid and thinks.
Is it normal to share a bed with the person you take care of a child with and also be the only person he actually allows touch from???
A rational person would say no.
He comes back, gets to working back on the ships and hums along to her personal cassette tape. And she stares while he works.
Like stares. Hard.
"Ya mind?"
"huh. hUH.- UHHHHHH-"
"You're staring.
"Yeah i realize that. I'm trying to think of an excuse gimme a second..... you uhh.. sing nice."
"Sure," he squints a bit.
His notification that people are in the premises and he jumps off to deal with it. Southern Nights comes on and Lici stays with Groot while she continues to think.
And then she hears and explosion and panics immediately. Tells her kid to stay still and runs into the forest. Knocks out one of the aliens close to the ship... realizes its a ravager. Panics.
Sees his figure in the trees and jumps up onto the one he's in. Immediately has a gun pointed to which she shoves out of her face.
"Rock these are-"
"Why the hell are you here????? You're supposed to be watching groot."
"Well these are Ravagers and I thought you needed help."
"I'm fine. Go watch the kid"
"No! I'm helping."
"go watch the literal FIVE YEAR OLD. THAT IS WITH THE LITERAL SERIAL KILLER."
"he's fine--" she hesitates.
They finish up the gang, only for yondu to come down. The betrayal happens they're put on the Ravager ship. Tied up and upset. Groot in a cage while she yells for them to stop and Rocket sits there extremely upset.
"You know maybe if you stayed with the kid-"
"Oh so now you're gonna blame me for this??"
"Oh no of course not all of it!! Just about HALF OF IT!"
"OH SO HERE WE G-"
The main one revolting shushes them and does his taseface speil while Lici sits there mildly amused with the remarks her friend is doing despite it all.
And it hits her like a bus.
Oh she is totally in love. Like a train she sits there and stares into the distance of her horrible situation and then turns back to Rock. Wow.
Yeah she'll ignore it. The rest of the movie happens as it does, Ego is killed and they head back to the ship with new scars and very tired expressions.
Everything is relatively normal. Things stay the same. Gamora and Peter now share a room so woo to Drax and mantis sharing a place now.
Tumblr media
And it continues....
Lord all mighty I have to make a part 2. Massive kudos those who actually read this. I'm sorry for your braincells 😭😵‍💫

RISU. I have been marinating in your tags all day. And let me just say I LOVE YOU SM?!? on both your tags for my akaashi and ushijima fics... there's a lot to unpack SO firstly,
WE ARE READER. i have only recently considered annotating with transparent post-it notes but honestly I like my books looking 'unread'. BUT ALSO YES. so, pretty much all of those books are books I have read!!
1Q84 - I've read MANY Murakami books but I always really liked this one!! There are definitely some uh, adult themes that people might not vibe with in Murakami books and I get that but overall I LOVE his worlds.
Night Circus - I'm actually halfway done with this book and I really, really like it so far!
Love in the time of Cholera - my ultimate favorite book, probably? I actually lended my copy to my bf when we had first started dating.
Before The Coffee Gets Cold - I have not read this yet but I want to!!
Memoirs of A Polar Bear - I picked and read this book and a whim and I liked that it was literally a generational book on this polar bear family. My bf and I are in a LDR and this was one of the first books I chose for our little book club. The other book he chose was Circe, WHICH I HAVEN'T READ YET BUT HAVE HEARD GREAT THINGS ABOUT.
ANYWAY, that honestly warms my heart so much that this is probably your favorite piece of my writing??! I wasn't feeling confident about writing for akaashi because I don't feel like I have a strong grasp on his character BUT it made my day to read that. :'))))
SECONDLY, so sorry for making you hungry whenever you read my fics!! i literally have another wip for komori and it's literally pasta night LOL so. but of course I had to throw in some tendou crumbs! i feel like my fics aren't complete without referencing another character lol. ooo, but honestly lemonade from scratch sounds SO SO GOOD. and takes me back to when I was a kid collecting lemons in our yard to make lemonade in the summer :'))
This got really long BUT, I just want you to know that I love you and I super appreciate your tags in a way that I don't think I could articulate well in words. I just get filled with warm fuzzies and stuff when i see your name pop up in my notifs <3 <3
LAURA MY BELOVED ‼️💗💗💗 i’m so sorry for not replying right away, my fatigue got the best of me and i literally passed out and went to sleep in the middle of cleaning.
but literally ilysm, and yanno i gotta tell you how much i adore u and your writing all the time LMAO but i totally feel you about akaashi’s characterization bc he’s quite complex sometimes imo. but the way you wrote him was so seamless and (perhaps he reminds you of your boyfriend in ways?) makes sm sense.
i never thought of giving transparent post it notes a go, so i’ll have to revisit that idea bc at least that can make things somewhat neater (? idk if that makes sense) and i also like placing color coded markers (for like quotes, or new words, characters introduced, etc).
i’m going to write these books down and check them out! i haven’t read solid books in a good minute (only manga lol) and if you say they’re good then i just know they’ll be amazing !! i think that it is absolutely adorable that you and your boyfriend have a little book club, that sounds like literally a scene out of a movie <3
omg pasta w komori sounds lovely !! i love pasta a lot and haven’t read for komori so i’m excited to see how you do your boy justice !! i think it’s always lovely to reference other characters and i do the same bc it just seems natural to hehe <3 but ty for the tendo crumbs !! making homemade lemonade is fun, i haven’t done it in awhile but it’s therapeutic to just make something, yanno ? :0
i appreciate leaving tags behind on ur work and that they make you happy !! you deserve the love bc you write the most beautiful things and the world deserves to know!! i’m gonna finish your ushi series tomorrow and can’t wait to read the rest of it ! ilysm laura dearest <3
