i need a drawfee archive that's got every stupid funny moment documented in chronological, alphabetized order for when i spontaneously remember a really obscure bit that i need to find or else i'll explode. i need to be able to type an extremely vague description in a search bar and have it understand me completely.
The first time Roy thinks nothing of it; the second he thinks it a coincidence – but the third time, and catching the studied nonchalance on Jamie and Keeley’s faces, he begins to grow suspicious.
The first time Roy thinks nothing of it; the second he thinks it a coincidence – but the third time, and catching the studied nonchalance on Jamie and Keeley’s faces, he begins to grow suspicious. "And neither of you have seen it?" he repeats slowly, staring at each of them in turn with his most intense, patented glare, waiting for one of them to break.
Jamie's face remains completely stoic--impressive, actually. Usually he's first to crack. Keeley shrugs innocently and murmurs, "Guess you must've misplaced it again, babe...."
Roy snorts. Yeah. He'd believed that the first time, when he'd found it buried on Jamie's shelf buried amongst his many, many hair products. Roy must've confused the shelves one night. His eyesight is shit in the dark, after all. Then when he next went to use it, the thing was fucking broken, so okay. Shit happened. Order another, no big deal.
This time, though, the trimmer was brand-fucking-new. And he knows exactly where he placed it once he'd removed it from the packaging. "You know that this is important, right?" he growls. "I've got be at the club in like two hours. Looking professional."
He glances past their heads to catch a sight of himself in the mirror. He meant to get a real haircut, but after a few rounds of putting it off, it's gotten long enough now for the curls to really be coming back, in desperate need of a trim, and his beard looks utterly unruly to match. Altogether, he looks like he's an aspiring caveman instead of the fresh new manager of a Premier League team.
"Your beautiful curls aren't unprofessional," Keeley says crisply, arms crossed and looking all put out like he's offended her talking about his own damn hair. Jesus Christ. "Actually, Jamie found--"
Jamie is instantly at his side, holding out a bottle of curl shampoo. "Bit of this to reduce the frizz, lad, and some beard oil to tame you up a bit in the front...very professional, that. And if it happens to make you look dead sexy, too, well--" He shrugs and exchanges a look with Keeley, who nods encouragingly like he's really selling it. They're both ridiculous.
Roy rolls his eyes. "So you mean to tell me I haven't been able to shave in days because my trimmer keeps disappearing mysteriously, and Jamie just so happened to go shopping for fucking..." he takes the bottle Jamie's holding, "curl-defining shampoo in that same timeframe? By total coincidence?"
"Exactly!" Keeley says cheerfully.
"You know, two hours gives us plenty of time to try it out," Jamie adds nonchalantly, waving the shampoo. His eyes are fucking sparkling. He's gorgeous. He's always so fucking gorgeous. "Probably best if Keeley and I help you out. Gotta really massage it in to get the full effect. It will take all three of us. We should shower together!"
Keeley's heads bobs up and down enthusiastically.
"And my trimmer is--?"
"Oh hush," Keeley says, edging closer, "You can search for that later."
"...or not!" Jamie adds.
Yeah, he thinks, letting Keeley's deft hands work at tugging his shirt over his head. Or fucking not.
hello hello! I hope you don't mind me dropping by but I just want to say I love your art so much, the way you draw vashwood is just so sweet and tender but can I just ramble about the way you draw Vash especially? More specifically, the way you draw his expressions when he's looking at Wolfwood???
I just LOVE the way you draw Vash's expression because the way you make him look at Wolfwood is so soft 😭😭😭. There's just something about it that's so tender, like whenever I look at Vash's expressions in your art I just think "that is genuinely someone who loves another person with all their heart" and it just mends and breaks my heart at once, you capture Vash's love for Wolfwood in ways I can't explain 👏
It's unbridled love mixed with the fear of hurting Wolfwood in their relationship. It's wanting to spill so much affection but holding back in fear of messing up. He looks at Wolfwood like he's longing for him so earnestly be it pre-relationship or even when they're already dating it's just so??? 💕💕💘💞💖💖💞💕
There's just something so tender and heart wrenching at the way Vash looks at Wolfwood in your art, it gets me really emotional and I hope you have a lovely day/night for real <33!!!
ouuuuu thank you so so much for your kind words and for taking the time to tell me this T_T !!! i'm glad my expressions for vash's longing gazes at wolfwood is well done enough to have this sort of response to it…
he's the kind of person that has to hold back in both words and touch when it comes to love, when it comes to wolfwood, but i think it's a difficult emotion to restrain, especially when wolfwood is kind enough to let it be.
ultimately, what they're allowed to have is the inevitable shared spaces during their travels, it's the other's physical presence, being next to wolfwood, being able to take him in through the way he simply exists. smelling smoke, seeing smoke, seeing the cigarette between his fingers, seeing the crosses littered across his person, the rosary snug around his neck, his scruff at his chin, messy bangs, messy hair, tired eyes, the canine that peeks when he speaks, and a voice carrying heavy words, but honest, and kind, and one vash could never get tired of hearing, like how he'd never be tired of just looking at wolfwood.
it's of gratitude, it's of sorrow, it's of grief, it's of love, praise, adoration, it's desperate and it's full of yearning. at first, it's a gaze he feels he has to be satisfied with until he's learned that he's allowed for more and at that point, when wolfwood has given him so much, how could he look at him in any other way?
in any case, i def like to make it known and parade around vash's deeeeeep deep deep feelings of love towards wolfwood, so i'm very happy to know i can express that clearly through his expression alone. i Also just love wolfwood so maybe the projection goes from the heart of the artist to the heart of the art.
i ended up collecting a few caps of his expressions just out of curiosity for myself :3 i have much to improve still, i'll keep on drawing vash's loving self until i can get the ultimate loving expression down!!
a/n: my personal favourite is "do you believe in love at first sight or should i walk by again?" but that's besides the point
"I was wondering if you’re an artist because you just keep drawing me in."
"Make it stop," Steve says, his cheeks a dark crimson as you keep threading your fingers through his hair, legs thrown over his lap, scrolling through the list on your phone.
"Baby, if you were words on a page, you’d be fine print."
He groans and you giggle, delighting at how flustered your man gets when you read stupid pick up lines to him.
"On a scale of one to America, how free are you tonight?"
"Oh, I’m busy," he says lowly, and your grin widens when he cocks his head. "And you’d better pack it in now, sweetheart, or else it’s gonna be a very long night."
I am very much the type of friend to send my friends overly sappy cutsey lovey emotional messages saying how much I love & appreciate them but then the second they send one back I all of a sudden don’t know how to handle intimacy and get all grossed out.
"Wild. Please just go to sleep," Twilight urged him.
"No," Wild's muffled voice replied from where he lay from face down in a pile of blankets. He turned his head to the side just enough to speak semi-clearly. "Sleep is for the weak."
"I hate to tell ya, but you kinda sorta ARE weak right now," Twilight replied peeling the skin off a potato in one long strip.
Wild roused himself to sit up. His eyes were red and glassy, his cheeks feverishly rosy, and he hunched shivering with a blanket draped loosely over his shoulders.
"M'fine. We gotta go... look for the others," Wild said. "Most of them don't have good cold-weather gear."
"Don't worry about them. They'll be fine. Probably." Twilight glanced outside the partially blocked off mouth of the cave they sheltered and into whirling white snowstorm. They better be fine.
"By the way, can you tell me what kind of seasonings I should put into potato corn chowder?" Twilight asked to distract Wild. And also to distract himself.

Who do you think falls in love first? Shadow or Amy?
Shadow.
In every iteration and scenario I think up, in every single one... I always feel it's Shadow who falls in love first.
I think Amy needs that time to realize what she wants is not who Sonic is (at least in my opinion). That's a thing that needs to happen organically within herself, and that will take time. However, the characteristics that she loves and cherishes, the components she wants in a partner and in a relationship... those are Shadow, even if she isn't aware of it yet.
Shadow, however unconsciously, or unwittingly, or unwillingly, falls in love with Amy first, and eventually realizes this before she even starts to back off of Sonic romantically.
And it kills him, it does.
Thinking of a degen!prefect (ironic I know) that hangs out with Jade on his mountain lover club adventures solely because they're horny....
Like I'm out here tryna suck yo dick, let me on your meaty mushroom 😫 I don't care about your mushroom endeavours.
It isn't long until prefect's cover of being a mountain enthusiast starts to breakdown.
"The Volvariella volvacea is a rather delicious mushroom, but don't get it confused with the toxic Amanita phalloides, bla bla..... Y/n are you listening?" Jade rambles about his mushrooms, until he realized that prefect was daydreaming.
"Uhh that uhhh uhhh mushroom looks pretty edible to me-"
"That is the exact mushroom I was warning you about! Sometimes I wonder if you actually wanted to learn about mushrooms. What is it that you actually want?" Jade interrupts, his interest piqued just as much as he is irritated.
"Err... The sun is setting soon, we should set up the campfire!" Prefect said flustered, desperately trying to change the topic.
"Why are you dodging the question? What is it that you're hiding little prefect?" Jade's pupils start to dilate (could eels do that?!?!)
"Nothing at all!"
"Have I made you uncomfortable?" Jade's voice shows faux concern.
"No, not at all. Now let's get moving."
A few days later, at mostro lounge. Jade sneakily gives prefect a cocktail with high alcohol content, in the guise of a sweet mocktail. Prefect gets drunk just as he plans, he proceeds to interrogate them, not that he minds the fact that they hang out with him.
"So what is it that you have been hiding from me?" Jade questions.
"I wanna have your dick in me shooo bad! I hump m'pillow every night to you! I don't even care abou thoshe shtupid mushwooms! I want you to breed me until I can't think!" Prefect says intoxicated, slurring out those words even.
"Oh my~ what do we have here? That was the reason why you joined me despite having no interest? How amusing!"
Jade is going to have a lot of fun with this, prefect will have a lot of problems to deal with once they sober up.
WOWOWOOOOOOOOOO YES YES OTL
Knowing Jade, as soon as he realizes you're down bad for him he'll tease you about it (just in very roundabout ways). I like to imagine he pretends to be utterly oblivious to your horny grip and the fact that you're always looking at him and not the mushrooms when he's explaining things, how your gaze always gravitates to his lips when he's speaking, how your pupils dilate when you look at him, how your shoulders perk up when he chuckles or smiles at you, how you're always stealing subtle glances at what might be contained in his trousers below the belt hehe. >:)
And he purposely gets close to you on the mountain treks, sliding an arm around you because "careful, the trail is a little steep and uneven here." and he has you hold onto him and he's so close and he's touching you and omg he could have you pressed against the tree right now and !!!!! So many fantasies play through your head. Oh, if only Jade could peer inside your head. He'd love to know what you think of when he does things like this. It's so obviously flirting, but somehow he's smooth enough to make it seem so natural. There's so much sexual tension between the both of you, though. Jade stokes it like it's a fire. <3
Omg and getting you drunk... what if he uses shock the heart on you as well so you'll have no choice but to be completely, drunkenly honest when he pries the truth from you!!!! >0< he makes you spill all of the dirty, little thoughts you have about him, and since he's so shameless it sounds like music to his ears. Aaaaa maybe he's fingering you when he makes you tell him the truth!!! Although it is a little disheartening you aren't a mushroom lover like him. :< he was hoping to share more of his hobby with you... so maybe it's a little upsetting you weren't truly listening to his lectures about mushroom species, but Jade has a fun pop quiz for you! Maybe if you get the answers right he'll let you cum or (better yet) he'll stick it in. <3 hopefully you remembered all that he taught you on those nature hikes. :)
Jade's so annoying, though, because he could spend hours teasing you with foreplay. He's so dedicated to being a nuisance and watching you squirm and beg him in every way that he might not ever end up fucking you. But alcohol always pairs so disastrously with the horny grip, so maybe if you push him down and ride him into tomorrow morning he'll be a little nicer to you. After all, Jade likes unexpected surprises hehe. And it'll be an even crazier unexpected surprise if the pregnancy test comes back positive many weeks later.
leo x piper is kinda my self-indulgent secret ship heh, it's nice to talk about it sometimes hgjfkl;
4. Their favorite show to watch together?
I think they would love watching stupid movies (romcoms or unnecessarily sentimental and cheesy) together not bc they like them but so that they could make fun of the lines/scenes together like best friends do (bc ofc they are best friends first, lovers later). leo mimicking them in his stupid way, and piper giggling and rofling about like a buffalo the way she can't before others. they are the kinda couple who would enjoy everything they watch together.
but their ultimate fav, repeat to 10000x movie list till they have memorized every line is HTTYD, cuz yeah, leo-hiccup, toothless-festus, and ig piper is a lot like astrid? AND DRAgons!!! so yeah their go-to, top-of-head movie when they are lazy to try something new
(the only thing they never watch is tristan mclean movies lmao)
14. Who falls asleep during a movie?
Neither, but on hectic days when they are super tired, both of them catch the sleep bug and fall asleep.
if Leo is first to wake up to find the movie is over, he'd pick up piper and carry her to their bed, taking care she doesn't wake up (watching her sleep is secretly his fav thing, yk cuz of piper's cute way of sleeping: "inhaling through the nose, exhaling with a little puff through the mouth" and "her hair looked like it had become a nest for a friendly hamster")
on the other hand, if piper is first to wake, she'd prob simply arrange some pillows for their necks and go back to sleep, snuggling into him bc no chance she is getting cold lol
which brings me to the next choice!
24. Sleeping/cuddling positions? (Big spoon, little spoon, etc.)?
ggfhjk i love this question specifically for this ship cuz Piper is 100% the little spoon!
iirc (forgive me my knowledge of HoO is getting rusty! seriously, it's time for a full reread T_T) both piper and leo are the same height, right? maybe as adults, leo gets a late growth spurt of a couple of inches over her (which is annoying cuz leo is finally taller but secretly she likes it, cuz perfect for a side snuggle)
even otherwise, piper is always, subconsciously snuggling into his side cuz he is so hot warm. even if he hasn't used his fire, there is always some residual warmth in him all the time, which she has got used to searching out for. say, if leo gets up in the middle of the night to drink some water/got a brand new design idea in his head he just has to jot down NOW,,, by the time he returns to bed, piper is completely rolled up in his side of the bed, searching for him in her sleep (he loves this habit of hers! it also probs makes him feel better about his fire too)
iirc, his mom's warehouse caught fire in the middle of winter, right?? ig he'd slowly come to like winters better, bc of piper snuggling more into him during winters agfhjk
and iirc, he likes to sleep with a hug pillow, right? his old hug pillow has been replaced by piper!
39. Do they get along with the other's family? If not, how do they deal with the other's family?
on leo's side, hephaestus will be very suspicious of the daughter of aphrodite (cuz of his own experience with her) but talking to piper, he will be slightly mollified abt her… yet, his advice for Leo always will be to trust his machines more than the human specimen of his girlfriend (ofc leo won't take it seriously)
//toa spoilers/// now josephine and hemithea are his foster mothers i am sure piper would get along with them super well as well <3
on piper's side, leo has already met Tristan in Lost Hero and knows him as piper's friend, so he'd be pretty much chill with what pipes does and who she dates,, he might try to give Leo The Talk as his duty as her father, but Piper would kick her dad out before that ever happens (Leo just being the awkward bean like during the whole helicopter ride in TLH lol)
oth, leo would be mildly (understated) scared of Aphrodite. if they ever meet her (by chance) he'd keep fidgeting and tapping 'i love you' on his jeans till piper clasps his hand and taps back 'it's okay' but i think aphrodite won't be as scary as leo imagines in his head; she'd probs find him amusing and intrigued that her daughter actually prefers leo over jason.
40. Who is the skilled shopper for holidays? Who always waits 'til the last minute to get all of their gifts? (Which one gets stressed out easily)?
piper! she won't--but she would use her charmspeak to bargain for the best prices in those overly expensive, money grabbing malls, something that leo always finds terrifyingly awesome lmao,, piper gets excited for holiday shopping and stuff whereas leo tags along obediently (and use his magic toolbelt to stove away the shopping bags lol)
leo always forgets all of the important days because of his adhd (extreme even by demigod standards) and piper, having known him for long, understands this and never gets mad or anything but he'd always feel guilty about this and makes up for it in a completely random surprise gift he handdesigns for her. Of course, piper loves his stupid (affectionately) and most times, completely non-functional (cuz Leo himself doesn't know what they do loool but they are always weirdly complicated) gifts so much! like say a music box that goes moo! but bake out fresh cookies lmao
