Soul-mates
TITLE: Soul-mates CHAPTER NO./ONE SHOT: one-shot AUTHOR: colifower ORIGINAL IMAGINE: Imagine Loki’s spotify wrapped. Wait, what’s that? They added a musical soulmate in this year’s edition? RATING: PG NOTES/WARNINGS: my AO3 version has Tess' spotify wrapped up and some basic mechanics behind the selection of the Soul-mates. I honestly couldn't bother to copy them here so... bon apple titty, as the youths say
Tumblr media
"Huh," said Loki, sprawled over Thor's sofa. "Have you seen this?" Thor peeked over his shoulder and shrugged. "With the ammount of times you've rickrolled me this year it's no wonder it's on your top five. 420 views? Seriously?"
The younger snickered. "I actually rickrolled you 413 times, but I HAD to play it up to 420. I was talking about the music soul-mate feature." "Oh, yeah! They added the feature this year." "Here it says it's somebody with the username Space_Stoned_420" "With that username they need to be somewhat like you." "I'm intrigued. I think I'm gonna find them." "What?" "Aren't you intrigued? Who is your music soul-mate? Show me!"
Thor took his phone out of his pocket and smashed it against the closest wall. Being the heir of a galactic empire meant that he neither had a concept of money nor was he going to start any time soon.
"I only listen to Bears and Beards," said Thor. "So it makes sense that it's Fandral and Hogun's podcast account." "I thought they stopped uploading after the first wave of negative coments." Thor shook his head. "They are my friends," he said full of pride. "But I would do anyways, the bear tips are just incredible." "What do you want them for? Do you have a boyfriend or something?" "They're not for that kind of bear. Most of the times, at least." "Do you have a bear, Thor?" "I like to support local queer artists." "You have not answered my question." "What question?" "Do you have a bear, Thor?" "Hm...?" said the eldest, walking slowly towards the door. "Thor." "...what?" Loki sighted. Thor kept avoiding the question. He stepped once again towards the exit. "Thor..." groaned the god of mischief. "Not this again." "Ok, I can explain..." Please do." "...They are an endangered species, so I brought two with me home because here on Asgard polar bears don't have any natural predators and..." "TWO POLAR BEARS?!" "It is part of a rescue program. Besides, mom and dad won't even notice..." "Thor! They hunt people! To eat them! Asgard is not prepared for another one of your experiments in invasive species." "Yes, well, I..." Thor sprinted out of the room and down the corridor, Loki followed suit, knife in hand. Later on, Loki sat on his bed, feet up on the wall, staring at his email inbox. He furrowed his eyebrow. It was spotify alerting him that Spaced_Stoned_420 followed him back on the music platform." That was the problem, wasn't it? No chat option in the music app. Loki sighted. At least he could give them a follow back. Perhaps even snoop on their playlist, surely their 'music soulmate' would have good taste. Loki was greeted with a collaborative playlist called 'follow this n00bmaster69', you bitch. He smiled.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The charm worked wonders on those midgardian mercenaries known as S.H.I.E.L.D. Loki was able to slide right under their noses and into the secured vault. He opened the case, as their instructions told him to. There layed...
"A cube?" "The sexiest cube in existance ;)" Loki blushed. The sound of the... being? reverbereated loudly in his head. "So... Space Stoned 420?" "You're missing a fiew _, but yes. That's me," continued the cube. "I go by Tess these days. It comes from Tesseract." "Oh, em... Loki. I mean... I'm n00bmaster69. I think we're spotify soulmates." "Oh yeah! I forgot about that," said the stone. "My brother has been recently involved with an AI. And by involved I mean intrinsically connected: they share a body." "I know the kind," said the magician, thinking of his brother's 'hammered dates' where the alcohol and the palm fruits were nowhere to be found.
"Yeah... he's been trying to set me up with increasingly more complicated algorithms. My tinder match called me a bluff for posting 'unrealistic body images'. It's not my fault I'm a powerful and mysterious cube." "That sucks, bestie." Tess sighted. "It's difficult out here. More if you look like I do." "I like it" said Loki. "Unexpected. Uncommon." "Thank you. It means a lot, it really does." "So... are you up to a date? I've heard that they sell boba tea here in Algeria. Globalization and all that." "What doesn 'tea' mean?" Loki wrinkled his nose. "It's... um... a drink. I think you'll like it." said the somewhat of a man, picking up the stone. He found Tess warm to the touch, and found himself fond of it." "Hell yeah >:P"

I am once again thinking about the reluctant ruler whose arc justly and correctly includes assuming the throne and taking responsibility for the people set before them
#it's about simba coming back to pride rock it's about aragorn using andúril to fight for middle earth and assuming the throne it's about#hiccup marrying astrid and assuming his role as chief and moses returning to egypt#and it's about irina loving her people so fully that when she claims all of her subjects as hers that chernobog must release them to her!!!#and it's about miryem choosing to stay with the staryk and repair the damage and assume responsibility for the land and people!!!!!#and! it's! about! gen!!!!#it's ALWAYS about gen!!!!#gen who didn't want to be king. who hated being king and only wanted to marry a queen but who obeyed his gods and became a king over kings#who lost his home and half his family and his HAND but who ushered in a new golden age.#and it's about sophos who ran away but who shot the ambassador and took back his kingdom#it's about duty and it's about sacrifice and it's always ALWAYS about doing the right thing even at great personal cost because it's about#submitting to a power higher than your own. of recognizing that the calling on life is one for serving others and having so much more to#answer for than just yourself. it's knowing duty is love is duty#i cant stand stories where the answer is 'give up the throne and reject your duty' because no!!! you dont get it!!!#thats how you get the monsters!!! thats how you get the prince turned into a beast and thats how you get every terrible weak king that#aragorn feared becoming#to accept your throne is to die to self!!! you are no longer you but 'king' or 'queen'#it's like queen mary says to qeii in the crown 'elizabeth mountbatten must die#elizabeth regina must take her place.'#that's terrifying! but it's also everything!!!!#die! to! self! die! to! self!!!!!!#lilac rambles#lilac goes to the movies#lion king#prince of egypt#lotr#spinning silver#the crown#tqt#the queen's thief#httyd

My one oneshot of all time is impossible. 
There are three. Well there are more but I forced myself to stick to three. I'm terrible with choices
'Affection in all the wrong places' by LeBenj 
“You need to stop showing up here,” Ekko says as he unlatches his bedroom window with a loud click.
Without looking at him, Jinx’s lips perk with a hint of a smile. “You need to stop letting me in.”
It's soft and hopeful, with an undertone of hurt, and I love it. 
‘What's broken can still mend’ by MidnightLightHowlite
He hates her as much as she loves him, for nothing good ever happened to people who loved her back. But he cares, and that's different because people who hate you but also care will not forget, because they will forget a kindness but not a curse. People remember curses, remember misfortune if only to avoid it, and she's enough of a sin to be unforgivable.
… 
“You’ve been surviving for so long.” He brings her knuckles to his nose and takes in the gunpowder. When his eyes meet hers they’re frozen. “But have you truly been alive?
So many gems in this fic. It hurts just right. Learning to live and complicated baggage and hope (I might have a thing for that) 
And last one 
‘Why’ by PenguiniShipsIt
‘That's all everyone wanted to do these days. Blow up. Beat everyone up. Hurt someone. End someone.
It got tiring to a point that he'd rather wreck himself than hear everyone around him already wrecked.
And he got what he wanted at the sight of her on his couch. Again.
"Hey." He shook her by the shoulder. "What the hell, Jinx? Is this what we're doing, now? You're just gonna stay here when it—"
She's burning.’
Caring despite all the rightful hesitations, a bit of ridiculousness, and from Ekkos's perspective, an incredulous situation makes for such a good read.
okay I have been super tired, so this took me like 3 days to write lol but we're so back baby here we go!
going one by one:
Affection in all the wrong places is very cute! I like the concept of things having eventually calmed down years later and Ekko and Jinx being able to relate to each other without the mediation of the conflict we see in the show. in some ways it also reminded me of one of my fics, with the whole "years later" thing, and I just think it's fun to see how different authors interpret similar ideas 😊
for What's broken can still mend, I think I actually read this one before I had my account?? I read a lot of CaitVi back then lol but I was just starting to get interested in timebomb. yet the summary sounds familiar...
but anyway, on to the thoughts! this is such a small thing but I love the idea that Vi comes to the Firelight base and plays with kids. I love it so much I might steal it for the end of revolution lol (with credit, naturally). and Ekko deciding not to kill her? wild lol, just wild. a little curious about why then, but hey, it felt very poetic and we can never be mad at that haha also was surprised at how it ended, but I was happy to see that Vi and Jinx made up, because who knows how canon will go 🥲
and for Why!
I feel like I've figured out your pattern lol you like fics where after the events of canon things chill out and Jinx goes to Ekko. and then implied/actual sex haha
the top author's note on this one is so fucking funny lol
I do enjoy Ekko being a bit of a dork here. the first fic I wrote with him in it has him telling bad science jokes lol. but he's also so sassy here which is how he became my favorite Arcane character in the first place, so we love to see that too.
He loved the way she swallowed. around here is when he started to get really terrible and I was so down for it lol. AND it's reciprocal! I like that playfulness coming out with them. you can feel how much they're into each other, and that along with how they're not saying everything (which I feel like is also a commonality between these 3 fics). since this is the longest of the 3 by a good bit, it really comes through, and I like in particular how Jinx is really torn up about the idea of loving him while Ekko is eventually able to convince himself to stop holding back, even though he's still afraid she'll hurt him.
She had seen what happened to people she loved and loved her back.
Not Ekko. Not chubby-cheeked, pouty-faced, sad-eyed, Ekko who hovered around her when she was sick and injured, who tended a nice little garden of friends and firelights, who zipped through the fissures like one of those masked heroes in barbershop stories.
yeahhhhhh this is good shit lol
“Are you aware of any reason she might threaten your safety?”
Yes. I edged her six times and came in her twice.
pffffffft
the end to this one is also really interesting. I would say it's my favorite of the 3. I like how the tension between Ekko and Caitlyn and Vi plays out, though I'm wary of the Firelights being legitimated by Piltover (though Ekko is, too, which is why I love him lol). it's interesting to see them inhabit this space created by all the tension in the world around them. and then, of course, Jinx comes back. more bittersweet than the first 2, but in a way I enjoyed a lot
thank you for sharing! 🥰

thinking about falling asleep next to nanami kento. the two of you sharing a measly, twin-sized bed in your cold, ac-filled bedroom.
word count: 0.8k
nanami slowly trails behind you into your room, too tired to bother flicking on the lights. you're both drunk with fatigue, eyelids heavy and hardly staying open as every limb on your body feels twice it's weight. your head nearly lolls to the side as you open your closet to peer at the array of clothing, body shivering unconsciously. the room is cold, bitter even, as the air conditioner roars loudly behind you. it was annoying when you first moved into your apartment-- the noise keeping you up at night-- but after a while its become second nature to just tune it out. however, temperature is different, and it's so cold you almost don't want to change, not wanting the warmth of your current clothes to leave you.
nanami quietly closes the door behind him, mindlessly making his way over to you and grabbing a sweatshirt and pair of sweatpants he'd left behind for nights like these. memories flood your mind, ears turning red at remembering how you had asked him, after five consecutive nights of him sleeping over, if he could keep some of his clothes here-- claiming having them would help when you missed him-- missed his touch. and it's a good thing you asked, because he's over twice as much now, most times not even going home and instead coming straight over after long missions.
kissing your cheek softly, he moves behind you before beginning to undress and you sigh in distraught, mentally preparing yourself for a mild version of hypothermia. you stare intensely at the floor, eyes avoiding him completely as to not see accidentally see him naked. shuffling comes from the other end of the room, nanami seemingly done changing, as he piles his dirty clothes on top of yours; however, his footsteps tap closer to you instead of towards your bed. feeling him tuck a strand of hair behind your ear and kiss your bare shoulder he smiles when you blush. "don't need to be shy," he mumbles, lips brushing delicately across your collar bone as his breath fans against your soft skin. he radiates heat, warming your goosebump-filled body with his touch alone. he's like a blazing fire in the middle of winter, warm and familiar; comfortable and homey. all you want to do is curl up beside him, basking in his warmth, and fall asleep.
your pajamas shirt is halfway on, arms through the holes with the rest of the fabric bunched up and covering your chest. "'m not shy. just didn't wanna be rude," you mutter, pushing him back slightly to finally pull your shirt over your head, shivering at the cold fabric hitting your blushing skin.
nanami hums, almost sarcastically as he steps closer to you again, fingers running through your hair as his nails graze your scalp. he stops at your nape, smiling softly at you as he leans in, connecting his lips with yours briefly, breathing you in, before pulling away. "tired?" his voice is deep and strained, desire for sleep clearly evident. he doesn't let you respond though, already knowing your answer as he leads you towards the bed.
he gets in first, head falling against the pillows and opening his arms to welcome you to lay on top of him. you slot your legs between both of his, head resting against his chest as you wrap your arms underneath his body, hands under his shoulder blades. his breathing is steady, a soothing lullaby that allows your body to finally relax. every muscle in your body loosening with each rise and fall of his chest- each inhale and exhale. "nanamin," you mumble, eyes closed as you consider that fact that he might have already fallen asleep. he was exhausted, more so than you, so it wouldn't be surprising.
but still, sleepy as he might be, he answers. "yes?" your heartbeat unknowingly speeds up at his voice and he seemingly picks up on this, letting out a low, sleepy chuckle.
you lift your head, glancing at him through your lashes. his eyes are closed, palms tucked underneath his head before he moves one to the top of yours. "love you. 'm so proud of you."
nanami's heart swells, eyes slowly blinking open as he guides his hand to your cheek, teasingly squeezing the skin. he leans in, tilting your head and slowly bringing his lips to yours again. this time the kiss is longer, a million unspoken words being captured in a single moment as you drink in his essence. your mouths part slightly as your lips delicately slot together, lazily licking and sucking at each other before pulling away. "love you too." he sighs, trying to find the energy to stay awake. "i want you to stay with me. forever."
you smile, nuzzling your face into the crook of his neck as he rests a cheek on the side of your head, kissing your hair. "i'm not going anywhere, min." and you realize you're not cold anymore. how could you be when all he does is keep you warm-- keep your heart warm?

❆ welcome to the twenty-five days of kinkmas: gallavich edition! ❆
- - - - -
day one: floating by anomalously
↳ rated E / one-shot / 2.4k / sex while high
Then Ian is pulling Mickey up, shifting and moving them and Mickey is floating floating floating, (wondering how the fuck Ian is so focused right now, how he always has so much energy when he’s high). And he feels so full with Ian still buried deep inside him, he’s basically sitting in Ian’s lap, they’re face to face, Ian kneeling. And Mickey feels himself start to float back down, feels his high start to dissipate just in time for Ian to grab onto his ass and start moving under him while he lifts Mickey up and down on his cock.
And holy fuck, Mickey wraps his arms around Ian’s shoulders, one hand fisted in Ian’s hair; he buries his face in the crook of Ian’s neck, inhaling his scent. He holds on for dear fucking life as Ian plows up into him, bouncing him around like a fucking rag-doll. And Mickey, Mickey does not care at all, it feels too fucking good to care about how absolutely ridiculous he probably looks right now.

TITLE: The Meanings of Words CHAPTER NO./ONE SHOT: One shot AUTHOR: Tragically Sarcastic ORIGINAL IMAGINE: here RATING: NOTES/WARNINGS: Just a little something with a little tension ;)
“Tell me what that word means.”
The chatter around the large table covers my harsh whisper. Anger makes my hands itch for my sword as the gossiping woman, who I’ve affectionately named slutvana, giggles behind her hand again and continues to speak in an unknown language while sending smirks my way.
The feel of a hand on my gripping my thigh causes me to shoot a look his way.
He continues to eat, the only sign that he heard me being the twitch in his eye as he try’s to mask his anger. I hear the word repeated again, and more looks my way are accompanied by chuckles. 
My anger has reached a high point, and I know I have to leave before I make a scene. I slowly put down my knife and fork, dab my napkin to my mouth, and put it beside my plate. My hands go to the table as I begin to stand. 
My wrist is harshly grabbed and my progress is stopped as I am forced back into my chair. His hand returns to my thigh and tightens to the point where I know it will add more bruises, this time with a less pleasant reminder. My skin prickles as more eyes land on me and what was supposed to be a silent departure is now a spectacle. 
My anger reaches new heights and I grit my teeth to stop from lashing out. My head turns and my eyes meet the dark look on his face, the harsh look in his eyes giving me pause… but not enough to curb my tongue.
I lean over, still trying to appear serene.
“Tell me what it means… now.” I harshly whisper close to his ear. So closely that my lips brush his skin.
I lean away and meet his eyes, ever defiant. 
The look in his eyes telling me that he’s going to keep tight lipped. My anger grows with his silence.
I lean close again. “If you don’t tell me what it means, or let me leave… right now. I will slap you in the face in front of all these important people.” 
I lean back again with a small smirk that quickly dies as I feel his hand move from my thigh. He turns towards me as his hand moves slowly, almost warningly, on its accent. His hand flattens at the base of my throat before traveling up. His hands large enough to where I can feel the tips of his fingers squeeze right below my ears. 
Now it’s his turn to lean in too close, close enough for his lips to brush my ear with every word.
“It means whore kitten, exactly what I want them to think I view you as.” His grip tightens and I tense up.
“If they knew I was in love with you, they would try to use you against me. And to be honest, I’d really like to avoid having to kill anyone who tried to harm you. Now I know it will be hard for a brat like you to behave,” He gives me a little shake as his grip tightens again, forcing a sharp intake of breath as the pain registers.
“But could you please look chastised so we can finish breakfast in peace?” He leans away, the look in his eyes still imitating fury but now I see the dash of mischief that lurks there. 
I force my body to relax, and a sickly sweet smile to my face. His grip loosens a bit before he leans in one more time.
“Look at you, being such a good girl for once.” He teases, knowing I’ll give him hell for it later. 
“Now finish eating and I’ll ...reward you later kitten, you just have to keep the claws hidden a bit longer.” He smirks, then adding one more thing before letting me go completely.
“I look forward to you unleashing their sharpness on me later.”
His mask of indifference slips back into places he turns away, and we go back to our unpleasant dinner. Only now, my flushed face has an entirely different cause.

The company I work for is holding a wildflower photography contest for employees, and I decided to incorporate my dad's dog to give my shots a little something special, but when I took him outside and tried to get a good picture with him, he refused to actually go near any wildflowers.
Look, this is the closest I could get to a shot of him in the bluebonnets:

Pitiful. Just pitiful. Wouldn't even get close enough for me to get them both in focus. Most unprofessional model I've ever worked with.

This is a reworking of a piece I made last year. Lately I’ve been experimenting with layering to create texture and depth, and I thought this piece would be fun to play with.
“If It Bleeds, We Can Kill It”
10x10, framed 12x12
Mixed media, hand-cut collage
Final draft, 2024.

Just having some fun and wanting to write fluff, figured I’d feed the Ink selfshippers.
Imagine:
You playfully toss Ink onto the bed, swiftly cuddling up beside him and holding the small skeleton close. You tease him playfully with your words as he blushes and grins with playful anxiousness. You take the dry yet soft paintbrush you had in your hand and begin to tease him with it as well, stroking the soft bristles over Ink’s formed ecto belly and hearing him giggle with excitement and joy. As you continue to smother him he laughs and you work your way up his ribs, teasing and loving and tickling all the way. Eventually you remove his scarf to drag the paintbrush against his collarbones. As you do so you wind up moving the gentle bristles against his neck. He immediately stops his ebullient writhing and goes quiet, a gasp cutting off laughter as he becomes still, face somehow even more flushed as he looks directly at you. His expression then softens and he comes less tense. You both lean closer very slowly, him being very shy about the matter. In a moment of tenderness, you share a small kiss. Afterwards he slowly pulls away and after catching his breath, a beaming smile returns. Soon, with a bright excitement, he says “Again, again!”.
I hope you enjoyed! ^^
