bro, bro do you understand, they hated each other it was always me or him, no and. they were pre pubescent and squeaking about he pushed me i pushed him back it was nothing it was just an inchident. they were like mortal enemies or some overdramatic shit cooked up under a mop of monagasque hair like bruh you were three, any puddle was proportionally the size of the pacific. now fast forward to when theyre like three and a half and it's smiles it's the best fun of my career it's i want this for another fifteen twenty years it's i know how strong he is it's touching hands and necks and arms and looks, really really soft looks (soft_wilted_cabbage.img), and it's nice (what's nice??) bc it means we know each other well (is it nice that you met so early, is it nice that your lives met the way they did again again and again, are you glad for it????) . they went from we didn't even say goodbye to we say hellow now to try and stop this middle-of-the-media-pen debrief and we couldn't stand each other to complete tunnel vision on that podium(tm) - miss ma'am did you see those fucking smiles, that grin, the pure elation, the ecstacy - and our relationship wasn't that great to laughing together and holding each other and respecting - admiring - each other to unshakeable degrees, we have a good relationship, from literal scowls to immediate smiles when asked about the other person and from never giving a single inch on track to understanding that, to loving that, to seeing it as a mirror and loving that too, and from, from grr to like, love heart love heart, likw- DO YOU UNDERSTAND—

heyhey!! just wanted to say your works are amazing and i love them so so so SO much aagghhh!!
now onto the request— what if,, what if reader knew a ton of languages like nikolai does, and they call their s/o pet names in those languages. an example would be,, maybe if they knew french they would say 'mon chéri' or perhaps they picked up romanian at some point and would call them 'dragă'
the characters i have in mind are price, nik, alejandro, & rudy, if that's okay !! (´▽`)
sorry for the super long ask, lol :')
Hey there! Thank you, that makes me really happy to hear :D And don't worry about sending longer asks, I really don't mind ^^ Also, that request is really cute! I love reader speaking several languages and being a sweetheart in all of them :D
Price, Alejandro, Rodolfo and Nikolai with an S/O who Knows Many Languages
Price: I think he knows quite a few languages himself, being a captain in the SAS and all. Not nearly as many as Nikolai, but he probably knows a good three to four languages, so he likely wouldn’t be entirely clueless when you call him something along the lines of mon petit chou fleur. While he won’t understand every term of endearment you call him, it does warm his heart to hear you speak a language he doesn’t know. It flows off your tongue very nicely and he just loves listening to you. Depending on what kind of language it may be, even the profanities sound nice. Although whenever you want to get his attention, just to call him something in a language he doesn’t understand, he sort of expects it to be some cute pet name. Will always smile at you, even if you were to call him your albernes kleines Kaninchen. Retorts with a pet name in one of the languages he speaks. Sometimes he does feel the urge to learn a new language, just for you. Or maybe you could learn a new language together? Practice with each other and just have a good time overall? He might bring up the idea at some point.
Alejandro: Like Price, he probably knows a few languages himself. More than the average person, but not nearly as many as Nikolai. So probably three to four as well. However, because he knows Spanish there’s a good chance he can derive most words in a Romance language. Call him something along the lines of giliw and he’ll always retort with some embarrassing pet name in Spanish. Yes, he knows several languages himself, but that doesn’t mean he won’t almost always revert to Spanish anyway. Pretends that you’re using your languages against him and calls you a traitor. And, as is the rule in your household when you’ve betrayed him, you will be held accountable. Lots of chasing through the house. Will “interrogate” you to get you to tell him what you said. Call him a term of endearment in Spanish and you won’t ever hear the end of it. No matter how many times he hears you call him guapo, he always gets that goofy grin on his face. Might research embarrassing terms of endearment to use on you in any other language. And yes, his goal is to find a language you don’t speak. Once he’s found one? He’s not gonna let you live it down. He’s bested you, and that’s all he wanted.
Rodolfo: You’d actually have to call him by his name if you want his reaction since he usually just tends to block out people speaking a language he doesn’t know. Why bother trying to understand someone like that? It’s not like he’ll learn the language overnight anyway. Rodolfo knows about three languages, so not as many as Alejandro. But he knows English and Spanish, which means he can communicate in most places anyway. He thinks he knows enough languages since learning one takes roughly an eternity and he doesn’t have the time for that anyway. Call him Cục vàng and he’ll just look at you as though you’ve grown a second head. You’d have to tell him what it means and then he’ll smile. While he will always appreciate a good Hartlam, he might look at you confused until you tell him you love him. Might not always retort with a pet name of his own, but will mix it up among the languages he does know since he doesn’t wanna seem too stupid next to you. Will also sometimes look up new terms of endearment in languages he doesn’t know so he can surprise you, but might get a bit shy since he might botch the pronunciation a bit. But he tries, and that’s all that matters.
Nikolai: He canonically knows eight languages, so there’s a good chance he knows what you’re saying. Even when you’re saying something in a language he might not entirely know, he might be able to derive the word from a language he does know. Although he may love any pet name you give him, he especially loves any Russian ones since he’s very attached to his country and his native tongue. Goes absolutely wild whenever you call him radnoy. There’s just something so sweet about you calling him something nice in Russian, doesn’t even matter if you botch the pronunciation. Will always give you a hug and a kiss to your forehead since he will always be reminded of how much he loves you. But even a simple min søde skat will get him to smile, even if he has no idea what it means this time. Because of you he might be inspired to pick up some new languages along the way, maybe even ones you don’t know so you can get the same treatment he does with you. Whenever you speak a language he doesn’t know he gets heart eyes for you. You’re just so gorgeous, you’re just so very smart. However, at some point he will just start speaking Russian to you, even if you don’t know the language. He won’t say anything mean, he’ll just tell you how precious you are and how much he loves you.

THE LOOK
- The demon brothers
"Sometimes when I look into your eyes
I pretend you're mine, all the damn time"
"Haunted by the look in my eyes
That would've loved you for a lifetime"
- 401 words
- Nightbringer angst
••••••••••
He knows that look. Sometimes you look at him like that. Reminiscence, hope, love. Sometimes when the night falls, when he lays by your side, he can hear you whispering his name and telling how much you miss him. Why do you miss him when he's right here, right next to you?
He knows that look. That's the look you give him every morning, when you think that he hasn't woken up yet, when your fingers gently touch his face, when you whisper his name. You're calling his name, but why does his name sound so unfamiliar? Why does his name sound like you're calling someone who is not him? You are whispering his name, but he knows, he knows, he knows all too well, the name that you call is not his. You're whispering someone else's name, you're whispering your lover's name, the name that belongs to your true lover; and your lover has the same name as his, your lover has the same face as his and maybe the same personality, the same hobbies, the same habits, the same love for you. But not like them, he doesn't have your love.
You love someone else, it's obvious. He can tell it from the way you look at him. He hates to admit, but both of you know that he's just someone's understudy. You love someone else, the one who belongs to your world - the world where he doesn't exist. Your world, is it similar to his? He doesn't know. But your eyes are telling him that you don't belong to this world, so does your heart.
He finally found the world where he belongs, it's just not where you do.
Sometimes he will pretend that he's the one you're madly in love with, not just an understudy of the name you called, the face you missed. Sometimes he will pretend that the name from your lips is his name. Sometimes he will pretend that you were so so so in love with him, and this love made you couldn't get him out of your head even when you two were next to each other. Sometimes he will pretend that your "I love you" is for his.
He will keep pretending, because sometimes you will give him that look- the look that is meant only for him. Sorry, regret, pity.
He knows that look, but at least for now, you belong with him.

how many different countries did you end up shipping zines to?
iirc the final count was 10--the US, canada, the UK, germany, france, mexico, finland, ireland, spain, and australia!! I was honestly super surprised by the amount of international orders i got. I was expecting a few canadas and maybe some UK/aus orders but definitely not the amount of different countries i ended up with!

I've been watching a lot of shit on The Boys comic vs show and I've come to realize I would NOT be the same delulu simp I am if I started with the comic. Like usually I'm all for the "if you dont love me at my worse version, you don't deserve me at my best version" thing but in this case I only want my silly babygirl who has boob padding over the comic one.
ahahah yeahhhhhh. while i'll always be grateful that the comics inspired the show we have today, i have less than zero interest in the source material. and i don't think there's anything wrong with that. they're two completely different mediums with two (almost) completely different stories at this point. they're barely even apples and oranges anymore. more like apples and sandpaper for me 😅
