#THE QUEEN OF ANGST IS AT IT AGAIN

i am upsetting myself at ungodly hours by imagining how the scene in apple and raven's dorm room must've looked like after raven refused to sign.
like imagine apple sobbing the night away and raven tries to comfort her only to be rebuffed and she spends the entire night awake and staring at the ceiling while the guilt eats away at her as she hears apple's quiet sobs.
and apple's there feeling so hurt and angry and alone, and in that moment she probably wants nothing more than a friend, a comforting presence, but she can't even look her bsf in the eye because she's just so upset about what's just happened.
idk there's something about the two of them being so steeped in distress and sadness because raven can't force apple to understand her and apple can't comprehend the reasons for raven's decisions.
and the two of them love each other SO MUCH, but right then they're just stuck in that suffocating dorm room with only each other for company, wondering what they're going to do next.

I’m super conflicted about this.
On one hand- I hear Hyun woo, he just needs her to stay alive, regardless of her memories. His hopes are that he will share hers and their memories with her as if to replant what she’s lost. But for Haein- he’s asking her to live as a blank canvas, to simply live, but if I’m going to live and not remember any version of who I am, those I love, is that truly living?
The way Haein looks so him when he asks her to live. You can see she’s simply shocked he could even ask her to simply give up all their memories.

I've been thinking about how little surviving information there would be on The Prince and how the only major detail about his life that could even potentially be listed in public history is that he was dating Vannesa
I wonder how many scholars would search fruitlessly for information about this relatively unknown royal who died before he could even graduate
I wonder how many history books on Subcon just list him as "Vannesa's Prince"

pleaaase may i have 28 and 29 aramour angst ✨ i crave it
Tumblr media
28: “Move out of my way before I make you.” // 29: “You deserve better.” (prompt list here)
click for better quality!
#the brainrot!!! so strong. anyways. fellas is it gay to confront the woman dating your ex when there's super high tension#anyway!!! highschool(?) modern au where the popular girl/ queen bee is whoever resident king henry is dating.. hm..#oh the tension between someone who used to serve you. now having taken your place. and you knowing the ins and out of that position..#especially that it's not all it's cooked up to be!! lots of thoughts about this au#art-wise i drew these as storyboards before i realised i cant video format well without audio so they're just here in storyboard form#i drew these in sketchy drafts and then in sketchbook then spent 2h lining them digitally bc the scans were yikes. anyways. i lost a frame#somewhere and it was before the “you deserve better” and it was like. “take it from someone who knows#fun fact!! i showed this to multiple irl friends without dialogue as i was drawing it. neither of them know the characters but.#immediately pinpointed exes vibes. and enemies to lovers. and basically homoerotic arguing tension.#remarkably pleased at how that was conveyed (and also amused. i love my friends). anyway if i were to do this again? then i'd draw in the#frames instead of re-doing the sizing after tracing. yikes that was an experience.#anyway!! (x3) anon i hope you enjoy the aramour angst. i hope it has something. i craved it a lot as i was drawing this#six the musical#six the musical fanart#catherine of aragon#jane seymour#also the characterisation was lowkey based off how mean girl seymour is absolutely a thing in the show. some of her lines. savage.#parallels!!! in show the "oh boohoo [..] i DIED'' and attacking aragon.. the rivalry here.. aaaagh#also!! the last line is a slightly paraphrased letter from aragon to her father(?) i think. found it online while looking for how she wrot#because i wanted her to sound more queenly... you also see it in how she's unbothered and rather unimpressed throughout seymour's posturing#the confidence in herself. meanwhile jane is defensive and a bit more prone to being flustered <parallels emotion in show script>#i'm just. very proud of these drawings together. narrative can be so very nice. the last two frames are kinda like a postscript.#sometimes the brainrot really gets you!! alright have a nice day.. comms are open and the fact that no one is taking them up rn feels a bit#sobering. but it's okay! i'm not in a rush.. it's more for the experience. hm. i wonder who wrote yes in the poll though#(can you. tell my ego is a little bruised?) nvm onwards!! eventually i'll get good enough to actually sell my stuff :OOO#oh an addendum: lowkey inspired by all the bathroom girl-on-girl confrontation scenes. one off the top of my head is the one from heathers#but there's quite a lot of those tbh#aramour

I just finished all of The Cruel Prince series and I can say that I’m never trusting booktok girlies ever again bc I saw so many tiktoks where The Cruel Prince was in the category “what I thought would be 5 stars” (implied isn’t) and boy were they FUCKING WRONG????
I was so scared I wouldn’t enjoy the book but HELLO??? THE WHOLE SERIES IS SO FUCKING GOOD??? I literally read The Wicked King so fucking fast and I finished The Queen of Nothing in a day I’m so so so in love with this series and Jude and Cardan
Like I guess I can see a little where they’re coming from, TCP was a little slow for my liking but once part 2 in the book hit I was fucking hooked, TWK FUCKING BROKE MEEEEE AND TQON WAS EVERYTHING I WANTED
JUDE AND CARDAN ARE EVERYTHINGGGG

[CN] Victor’s 2023 Qixi Event Offline Call + In-game Call + Mail
⌚ No spoiler warning since global server doesn’t get these anyways ⌚
Tumblr media
[Translation under the cut]
•─────⋅◍♡◍⋅─────•
[Anika’s Notes]: Honestly, I’d rather you guys read my twitter thread for this since I added many translation notes I won’t be adding here haha: ♡♡
It’s me, Victor. I’ve found Pudding.
Not sure when, but he somehow crawled into the suitcase, and now came out on his own after waking up from his nap.
Hm, it’s the suitcase we were planning to take to the desert.
Yep, thankfully, although he flipped over the contents inside and caused a mess, the gastronomic map and camping equipment a certain someone had placed in there earlier are intact. So your plans for enjoying barbecue and stargazing won’t be compromised.
The red dress you wanted to wear for taking pictures is also in there. And all those jingling accessories that were tangled together— I’ve properly sorted them out for you.
However, there are now more of Pudding’s toys in the suitcase… and he’s still spinning around the area of the suitcase.
[Pudding meowing adorably ~pitifully~]
He seems to be stating explicitly that he wants to join us for the Qixi Festival.
Whether to bring him along with us or not, let’s decide when you come back.
Tumblr media
【In-game Call】
Victor: Have you left the house yet?
MC: Of course, and I’m already in the car. How about you? Have you wrapped up the meeting?
Victor: Yep, but I also found a certain someone’s new masterpiece on my office desk, and I’m still finding it a challenge to figure out what the original inspiration is.
MC: …you really can’t tell? It’s obviously a cup!
Victor: Sure enough, your self-confidence is not to be underestimated.
Victor: It resembles a vase, it resembles a spray bottle–– but it just doesn’t look like a cup.
MC: Even if it doesn’t look like a cup, the pattern drawn on the surface should still be identifiable, no?
Victor: Your artistic style has always been abstract, and the tree branch next to the chestnut is somewhat satisfactory.
MC: …the paintings on the cup are clearly several skillfully rendered fruits nestled within the grass. It’s quite easily distinguishable.
Victor: Mhm, the blackish blob is indeed “easily distinguishable.”
Victor: Speaking of which, a certain someone mentioned wanting to try out a pottery workshop last month. It turns out she was already preparing this gift back then.
MC: Hehe, the most important value of a gift lies in the sentiments behind it. I’m sure CEO Victor shares the same feelings, doesn’t he?
MC: So, will my gift be a sumptuous feast, or some sort of handmade craft like the one I gave you?
Victor: Isn’t a certain someone usually filled with all sorts of whimsical ideas?
Victor: How come you’re being so restrained during a crucial matter like this?
MC: …! Seeing how you are boasting like this, aren’t you afraid of potentially not living up to my expectations when the time comes?
Victor: I understand the thoughts of a certain dummy better than anyone.
Victor: Even if your expectations are sky-high, I’m confident I can have you giggling all night long while hugging your gift.
MC: Humph, if you can’t achieve this result, then will CEO Victor step in for the gift and let me hug him all night long instead?
Victor: You sure know how to make demands.
Victor: Nonetheless, all of this is contingent on you not being late. Otherwise, it’ll be like fetching water with a bamboo basket – all in vain.
Tumblr media
[Tidbits]: the word cup (杯子) actually has the similar pronunciation to 辈子 (meaning one’s entire life). So, it’s considered a romantic gift among couples to express their emotions of being together for a lifetime~
【Mail】
Tumblr media
“Using handmade offerings to pray for ‘predestined love and marriage’ is somewhat elusive. The wish to never be separated— just expressing it to me like this is enough.”

Hi old mixer, I know you like a lot of angst. What are the angst fics you read when you want that good pain, want to cry etc?
Oo yes! I do love me some angst, especially when the angst hurts so good!
Sour Milk & the Sea (You & You & Me) by cloudy_blue
I have definitely recommended this one before but the Paul angst hurts so good!
i can only speak my mind by @paisanas
This one is still ongoing but I am AMAZED at the angst every time it's updated. Slow burn angst!
the loneliness gleaming in your eyes by turntechGodhead
This one is also still ongoing but I am a sucker for depressed Paul fics and this one is an AU that takes his depressed period even further. Maximize that angst!
Outro by bakerstreetafternoon
Oof I had this one in my bookmarks and just re-read it, no happy ending here! It hurts but in the best way!
stuck inside these four walls by clarinetta
John and Paul are trapped together during the Lost Weekend, more of a happy ending here but moments of good angst in the middle!
and somebody spoke and I went into a dream by clarinetta
I feel like I've seen this fic on a angst rec list before, but for good reason! It's been a while since I've read it, but it came to mind when I was thinking of pain fics! Paul has to relive December 8th 1980 over and over.
for though they may be parted by @downtothe-lastdrop
Another one I haven't read in a while, but it came to mind thinking of fics that hurt so good when I first read them. So well written and it's a Severance AU!

THE QUEEN OF LIES
Bringing you: Whump
Look away, Breanna ordered herself. The boy had not even flinched when Baden declared his crimes for all to hear, nor when he heard his punishment: twenty lashes with the cat o’nine tails. She did not know what that was, but no doubt it was bound to be unpleasant, and she’d thank herself later if she didn’t watch. But she couldn’t pull her gaze away as Curtis was drawn in and summoned forward to hold the thief while his wrist shackles were unlocked, his shirt forcefully yanked from his body, and then his hands bound to the wooden whipping post before which the crowd had gathered.  A round of jeers went up from the gathered watchers on the outside; titters rippled through the crowd of prisoners.
Bringing you: Romance
In unison, they drew closer, and her entire body tingled with every possibility contained in the moments between them, in their shivering breaths that seemed to go in and out as one, and in the crackling air that seemed now to connect rather than separate.
Bringing you: Angst
And she’d thought she was playing a dangerous game then? What about now? What about the way she was teetering on the edge of a knife, between lives, when the smallest action might pitch her back into the world she had known and to which she had no desire to return?
Bringing you: Sillies (do I dare to call it fluff? you decide)
“Goodness, you’re vain,” she said. “You look incredibly handsome. Stunning, in fact. Crooked seams will be all the rage by next year. That’s how wonderful you look.” Raising his eyebrows, he said, “Now, that’s what I was looking to hear.” “You,” she said, “are impossible.” “Impossibly handsome.”

hi)! i’d like to ask if you could write victor from mlqc x mc (female or gender neutral you can decide) for the prompt “don’t give me space. that’s the last thing i want from you”. thank you so much 💞
Of course!! This seems like a lot of fun! Thank you for the prompt!!
If you would like to submit a prompt, you can do so through this post! Don't forget to read the rules when you do!
Now let's get to the Victor angst >:D
>>>
When you and Victor first moved in together, everything seemed fine. You would make breakfast, the two of you would eat together, then carpool home to and from work, all while exchanging delightful conversations. Then Victor would make dinner as you took a shower. And every night you two would go to bed with a kiss and warmth in your heart.
But something changed. Maybe it was the rapidly approaching deadlines at work or maybe it was the way you were naturally a messy person and Victor wasn’t. It didn’t matter. All that mattered was that the peaceful schedule you had was now a mere memory. In the morning you would wake up to find you had woken up late and had to rush breakfast for the both of you. The carpooling went from casual conversation to arguing or even angry silence the entire way to work and back. And even at work, Victor seemed to always have something bad to say about your reports. Coming home Victor would continue to make dinner but you would spend your time in the home office, working relentlessly until well into the night. You’d find yourself going to the bedroom with Victor already in the room. He was either, already asleep, or, most often than not, sitting on the bed with his laptop, working on whatever work he had left from the day. Victor would still be working as you crawled into bed and fell asleep without a word or a kiss goodnight.
Eventually, you had had enough. You and Victor hadn’t shared a word of genuine love in weeks. Nor had either of you shared time between just the two of you as a couple. No. Everything had gone awry and there was only one constant in everything that went wrong. 
You.
And you knew there was only one way to fix what you had brought to Victor’s home. 
You had called Anna that night and asked to stay at her place for a while. She agreed so, while Victor made dinner, you packed a suitcase. When you had finished, you walked into the home office and packed your laptop in a bag strapped over your shoulder, figuring that working at home would be easier on both of you as well. 
You descended the staircase as silently as you could, being sure not to make it obvious that you had a suitcase with you. As you tiptoed to the front door, you glanced into the kitchen. Victor stood over the stove wearing a sweater and khaki pants. He had a kitchen rag draped over his shoulder as he focused on whatever dish he was making. Though he wore his usual poker-faced expression, something seemed to weigh on his face and his shoulders. You played with the strap of your bag across your chest. He deserved to know.
You took a deep breath and entered the kitchen. The movement was enough to catch Victor’s attention, bringing his velvety black eyes to you. His expression began with curiosity, then, after spotting your bags, turned into concern. You quickly turned your eyes to the floor, afraid to start another argument. “What’s this?” Victor asked with stern hesitation. You grimaced but, knowing there was no turning back now, you spoke.
“I’m moving out.”
Silence hung in the room. After what seemed like hours, you heard the click of the stove as Victor stopped his cooking. Panic filled your chest. “I-it’s not that I don’t care for you anymore!” You quickly said, squeezing the strap to your bag even tighter, “I-I just… We’ve been arguing so much about every little thing! And time at work seems so tense what with so many deadlines coming up for shows and…” You took a couple of shallow breaths, fighting back the tears pushing through your eyes. When you spoke again, your voice had become noticeably meeker, “... I just think we need some space. Maybe we can try again later but… I… I don’t want to be a burden anymore.”
Once again the room was silent but you could feel the obvious tension that you had caused. You cursed to yourself. Yet another horrible situation you caused. The tears you had been holding back began to fall quietly down your face. 
Quiet footsteps approached you. Your fight or flight instincts kicked in but before you could act on them, a gentle hand touched your cheek. So gentle in fact, you could nearly convince yourself that nothing was there. Slowly, you looked up and at Victor, who stood over you. But instead of his usual domineering and stoic attitude, he held an air of careful understanding,
And grief.
Another tear strayed from your eye. Victor was quick to catch it, using his thumb to brush it aside, still with the same gentleness as before. Victor took a deep breath and met your eyes. 
“Don’t give me space. That is the last thing I want from you.” 
Victor’s voice had never been so tender before. The mere sound of it made your heart skip a beat. You stood frozen in place, looking back and forth between Victor’s eyes, looking for a catch. Victor sighed and pulled his hand from your face to take your computer bag. You allowed him to pull it over your head and set it to the side. Immediately after Victor had done this, he pulled you into an embrace. One you stalled in the presence of. Victor, seemingly noticing your hesitation, held you even tighter.
“The tension between us isn’t your fault. I shouldn’t have been so harsh to you.” Victor spoke carefully in your ear as if he had been thinking about those words for some time now. You leaned into his hold and listened to him attentively, “And some of your arguments may have been unnecessary to even bring up. But I knew that no matter what you would still know I cared for you. That I loved you. I should have caught on sooner.”
With those words you quickly wrapped your arms around Victor, “I do! I do know you love me… do you know I love you?” Victor pulled away from your hold just enough to look you in the eye.
“Of course I do.” 
Victor's words sent more tears down your face. Victor frowned and moved to wipe them away again but you stopped him by setting your head on his chest, gripping the sides of his sweater gently. Victor took that moment to kiss the top of your head. After a long moment, Victor asked something that seemed to be locked in his throat, “Do you still think we need space?” 
You immediately shook your head against Victor’s body. You felt Victor’s body relax. “Can we discuss what we can do to fix this?” Victor’s voice was more confident now, nearly returning to normal. You pulled away from Victor, nodding once more, letting go of his sweater to wipe your face of tears. Victor sighed and smiled down at you. He took your face in his and pulled you into a kiss. You returned it, placing your hands on top of his. 
After a moment, Victor pulled away gently, resting his head on yours as he rubbed his thumb on your cheek. After a long pause, you quietly said, “... what’s for dinner?” Victor chuckled handsomely, sending warmth through your heart and your cheeks. Victor placed another kiss on your forehead before finally pulling away from you. He removed the kitchen rag from his shoulder and reached into his pocket, pulling out his phone. “Take out.” Victor said, his voice returning to normal. You looked at him in confusion.
“But weren’t you-”
Victor cut you off by patting your head. “Dummy.” Victor smirked as he scrolled through his phone, “You really think I’m going to continue working in the kitchen alone after a conversation like that?”
“Who said it had to be alone?” You asked excitedly, pulling his phone down so Victor was looking at you instead “Let me help you!” Victor’s eyes flashed with surprise. Then soon after, pure adoration. He put his phone back in his pocket and took your hand.
“Alright.” He said with a warm smile, “Let’s get started.” You walked with Victor into the kitchen happily, leaving your bags by the door and unattended for the rest of the night.

Do you ever read a fic & then some random side characters that pop up again & again throughout the whole story do something together in the background while the main character is occupied with their own thoughts & just brushes over them like a fleeting, unimportant observation? And you’re like these two, I wanna ship these two. And then you keep your eyes open for more background interaction like those as a secondary goal besides reading & enjoying the fic (that’s when a fanfic really starts to live at least to me).
Though I’m all insecure & paranoid now bc the author surely didn’t mean to paint these two in a romantic light & just needed that side interaction as a description filler & im reading too much into this, but like…I ship it. Oops. How did that happen
Tumblr media
Link is here: https://archiveofourown.org/series/1830772 (it’s actually Part 2 of a longer 5-Parter-Series & Part 1 was already awesome but it keeps. getting. better.)
#like. I knew perwaine was a ship & I was all “oh how cute“#& then just brushed over it bc to me it only had cuteness & nothing more#there wasn’t this heartwrenching emotional investment yknow what I mean#BUT THEN. one seemingly normal but also faithful day: I read this sentence in a super cool merthur fic#i read it to the end of the paragraph. reread it again & SUDDENLY Arthur’s emotional turmoil took a backseat#fics that are so long & complex that you ship the side characters my beloved#scratch that: fics that are so complex & thought through that they become independent pieces of literature separated from th original media#i love this fic#have been reading SOLELY this big boy for days now. yes it’s that good#can’t put it away. I love it. it has literally EVERYTHING: nice plot. Arthur gets an actual character arc. humour. angst. mysteries#also Gwen is treated like the queen she deserves to be (and there’s even a hint of Mergwenthur there MY HEART CANNOT TAKE IT)#it explains Camelot lore & the laws of the old religion#and ​let’s not forget the smut okay. let’s not forget that#ALSO the FUCKING BADASS magic reveal. kudos to the author there for depicting Arthur in a realistic way CONSISTENLY throughout this#Anyways. I love this fic#would definitely recommend dude. you haven’t lived until you read this one#it’s worth it I swear#bbc merlin#fanfic#fanfiction#ao3#perwaine#merthur#the hands of a hundred winters#The Dust of Hope#i love this author. I wanna peak into their brain#fics I have read & need to hype up#minee#as in my post. not my fic. I couldn’t be this brilliant#fanfic recs
