Sketchbook Review

The cover is printed well and very durable. The pages are thick and I was surprised at how big the sketchbook is! I have a few mini square sketchbooks and they don't have nearly as many pages as this sketchbook. It also includes a back pocket, a ribbon, and an elastic clasp. Another surprising bit is the pages are honestly some of the smoothest pages I've ever felt. It's not a bad thing at all but I have just never touched paper this nice before lol. That does mean the way some materials react to the paper will be different, but none of my test materials bled through the pages. (only faint outlines/shadows but not full bleed). I genuinely adore this sketchbook and am so happy to have snagged one during preorders

1.1.4 - "Works to Match Words"

well look who finally got caught up enough in their real job to do their les mis letters posts! (and figured out how to use the title feature!) oh boy there's so much here y'all.

the title immediately stands out to me - it reminds me of a bible verse, though I can't immediately pinpoint which one. a quick google tells me probably james 2:17 (faith without works is dead) but i think 1 john 3:18 fits better - "[...] let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth". this whole chapter is an exploration of what people *say* (or what their titles/positions say about them) vs what they *do*.

Pun Count is now 2 ("My highness cannot reach that shelf", maybe my fave pun in the whole book)!

Myriel refers to the Saint Augustine quote ("place your expectations in him to whom there is no succession") as being "something odd", just like Hugo later says he has his "own strange way of judging things" - driving home that point that for a priest to follow christ's actual words and intentions isn't the rule but the exception.

not sure how the anecdote about his cousin fits my words/works thesis but let me get to the end of this post and I bet I'll find it!

"using the tomb to feed their vanity" seems to imply there's something else these men should be using the tomb for - most likely a contemplation on heaven?

"A pennyworth of paradise" - lots here!! someone else brought up Myriel choosing to convince people to good acts through love rather than fear; we're seeing the fear approach work here, but only insofar as it gets Geborand to donate a single penny - a token contribution, a "work" that is more word than deed. he can say he was charitable, therefore he thinks he'll get into heaven. Myriel's saying it doesn't work that way - that a pennyworth of charity only gets you a pennyworth of paradise, perhaps also that the greater your works on earth, the greater your reward in heaven? this is a view I personally don't vibe all that much with as I feel like in practice it only encourages performative "works" instead of its intent (to reward fully those who were truly good). it *is* a very biblical take, though; see the beatitudes.

the Marquis de Champtercier - others have mentioned him as a kind of precursor to Gillenormand, which, yeah! the "words" here are the marquis claiming he's prioritizing his own poor while the actual work is to deny "Myriel's poor" his donation. Myriel (and I) disagree with the "my poor/your poor" distinction - the suffering of any person is the responsibility of all of us to alleviate, hence "give them to me". interestingly this was the first time i read this line as "give *them* to me" instead of "give them to *me*" - the latter is, again, Myriel saying he doesn't discriminate between "his" poor and the "Marquis' poor"; the former feels like an even cheekier followup to "you must give me something" - if it won't be money, it'll be "his" poor.

"God gives light to men, and the law sells it." Myriel is speaking literally here re: the door and window tax (which I know nothing about; what's the logic there??), but in a larger sense, he also isn't. Light is one of the things I'm specifically looking for on this read, and this feels like the setup for the points Hugo will make later with his other usages of light. God gives light - hope, love, education, belonging, whatever it is - to men, and the law - literally, but also just society and government - sells it (at a monetary cost but also a less tangible one - your soul? your humanity?) goddamn, I can't believe I never thought more about all the things Hugo is subtly setting up in these chapters and passing off as Sick Bishop Burns TM.

"My brethren, be compassionate; see how much suffering there is around you" - it says he's preaching this at "the cathedral", but I don't know much about the demographic of Digne at this time. are his parishioners mostly rich? mostly laborers? a mix?

I appreciate the inclusion of Myriel's knowledge of Southern dialects more now that I know a little about the context of Occitan/lenga d'oc/Provencal at this time! i want to spend some time researching the history and linguistics of Occitan here soon, it's fascinating to me.

lots of people have expressed that Myriel's doctrine of repressing the body so as not to sin as rubbing them the wrong way, and same. unfortunately it very much jibes with the Catholic view of sin. nothing'll give you Permanent Weird Feelings About Your Body And Specifically Sex like Catholicism! (this last to be read like a tagline on a commercial with, like, the Mr. Clean guy doing a thumbs up above it, only he's wearing a miter.) from a modern viewpoint I'd expect Myriel to think a bit differently on this point the way he does on a lot of other Church doctrine things, but I suppose if he really "got it from the Gospels" there's plenty of textual evidence to support that. ew, Catholicism.

also not the first person to point out "but be upright" as paralleling "un juste", the title of this book, but wow it's good.

gonna be vulnerable here and confess I don't really get what he's saying about the "offended hypocrisy" that's "quick to protest and run for cover". pot/kettle I guess? maybe it's just worded in a way I can't wrap my mind around.

again with the Big Three - women, children, and laborers (here "servants". Hugo via Myriel directly identifies the corresponding oppressors - husbands, fathers, and masters - but in this case I'm not sure how much I agree with those. masters certainly, but husbands and fathers? certainly they *can* be oppressive and create those conditions Hugo so strongly opposes, but not always - and in many cases those husbands/fathers are also laborers, so. I much prefer his followup of the strong, the rich, and the wise. once again Hugo says eat the rich.

"the guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but the one who causes the darkness." alright everyone, pack it up, we're done here, we've found the Main Idea! lmao can you imagine if that's where Hugo stopped? hilarious.

the counterfeiter. the "word" here is claiming to uphold justice, when the "work" is actually just upholding the law. I especially like the wording of saying the prosecutor had "brought truth to light" here - going to have to go grab my French text and see if this is a Hugo wording or a FMA wording, but either way it goes back to that theme of light - in this case, how the truth of the case isn't necessarily the same as the Light, the good.

the condemned man. there's so much here. "[Myriel] called [the condemned man] by his name" - this brings to mind musical!Valjean's line "my name is Jean Valjean!" when Javert persists in addressing him as 24601, as well as his later surprise when the bishop treats him like a person. sometimes all it takes is treating a person like a person. i'm sure this won't be the last time I say that. Hugo also refers to death as "an abyss" here; that recalls "I am reaching, but I fall/and the night is closing in/as I stare into the void/into the whirlpool of my sin". I don't think this is the first time Hugo refers to the unknown as an abyss, either! in this case, it isn't just the unknown of death that the condemned man fears, but likely also the judgment after, which he knows won't go well for him (he's specifically said to be "not ignorant enough to be indifferent"), much like the abyss of Valjean's sin. Myriel sheds light on this abyss ("showed him the light") and teaches the condemned man not to fear death or the afterlife. fascinating also how we're specifically told Myriel stays with the man onto the cart and all the way onto the scaffold, literally accompanying this man to his fate, helping him not be alone to the very last moment.

the upper classes see Myriel's reaction to the guillotine as "affectation" - because if they were to show the same outward reaction, it *would* be affectation for them.

haha hey did you guys know there's a character limit on tumblr posts? because i do now!! so uhh part 2 in a second i guess.

#les mis #les mis letters #lm 1.1.4 #i didn't even know i had this many thoughts jesus christ!

Title: Mediumsized Monstrosity

Manjiro 'Mikey' Sano x gn!reader

——————————————————————————————

Genre: fluff and fluff

Summary: decorating your shared apartment and giving it a christmassy touch with the help of your boyfriend

Warnings: none really?

Notes: a sweet little drabble for christmas ~ hope y'all are taking good care of yourselves and I hope you'll be able to enjoy the holidays 🎄 Also, the title is a shameless pun :')

——————————————————————————————

One year went by and it's finally time to decorate and to let everything shine in its glory. It's what makes this season so lovely over and over again. Every single year, you get so excited to finally be able to make your home look so much more comfortable and festive.

Today you decided to drag your boyfriend into, what he calls, "a mess." He loves the sight of the flickering lights once he trudges through the door on a cold December day. He loves to watch you decorate the apartment and he loves how warm his heart feels at the look on your face. Always so excited.

What he doesn't love is that you want him to help you decorate this year. Mikey would much rather keep eating the cookies you made. What even is sharing?

And this is exactly what brings us to this very situation. You had Mikey on your leash and made him do exactly what you told him to do but he still somehow managed to do the complete opposite.

You were currently decorating the christmas tree and just as you thought Mikey would be able to handle it alone, as you were almost finished anyway, he still very much managed to prove you wrong.

It was only when you came back from the bathroom that you saw Mikey on the ladder in front of the tree. This man really thought it would be a good idea to put a cup on top of the green, spiky giant. Upside down. You couldn't help but sigh at the sight, "Mikey, I love you so much and you know that but .. are you an airhead?"

The man in question turned around slowly to look at you, though he still stood on the highest step of the ladder, "An airhead? Why, is this about my height again?"

It took you a second to fully comprehend what he meant and you couldn't help but let a giggle pass your lips. He looked so adorable too, the more so with that pout on his lips. It's making you melt on the inside, he is making you melt on the inside. And sometimes you found it hard to believe that this man is 27 already.

And yet, you had to burst that little bubble of his, "Bub, please put the ornament on top of the tree."

Mikey shot you a look of confusion, "The cup has christmas decorations on it, why can't it stay?"

"Because it's a cup?" Duh.

And then you made a mistake. You swore to yourself that you would avoid Mikey's gaze in situations like these because he always managed to turn the situation around, so that it was in his favor. And that's exactly what happened again.

The moment you had told him that he won but that he would be in charge of explaining that 'monstrosity' to your friends, he turned around again. The biggest smile on his face and you had the perfect view of it. At least he was having fun.

Later, as the two of you were munching on some pastries, he had confessed that he would help you every year from now on.

"Decorating was more fun than I expected it to be," and then he added a mischievous, "Also, I'm pretty sure our tree is prettier than Takemichi's."

You got a good laugh at his statement. "You probably only liked it because you ate 70% of the cookies. I don't know about Michi's tree though, because I'm pretty sure Hina would disown him if he did something stupid."

The two of you sat on your sofa comfortably, exchanging thoughts and little giggles until your faces hurt.

"Also, Sano Cat — you're gonna help me bake too, the next time."

"Oh come on," your boyfriend whined.

"You wanna eat it, you have to work for it, pretty boy."

Christmas with Mikey is a playful but also a wonderful time and you wouldn't want to miss it, ever.

navi/mstrlst

"Yeonjun, Yeonjun, Yeonjun, hyung!!!"

Soobin excitedly runs through the dorm, looking for the oldest. He ran so quickly that he had to pump his brakes when he saw him.

"Whoa, there. Slow down before you drift into the wall." Yeonjun warns as if he would not burst out in laughter if he did manage the feat.

"Today's the greatest day of my life. I just-" Yeonjun holds out his hands, motioning for Soobin to turn the 65 to the 30 and calm down. He then stops himself and takes a breath to articulate his emotions.

"I managed to score a ticket to Y/N's concert!" Soobin says, still trying to level out his excitement.

Yeonjun smiles at the younger and chuckles.

Soobin has been tracking these tickets even since the tour dates dropped. He saw they were bringing a show to Seoul and stalked that venue site until the tickets were posted. It was a bit of a minefield of other big fans and scalpers to get them, but he bought his front-row seat, and the moment the realization hit, he almost rolled out of bed.

Man really said fuck them bills… anywho, two weeks of lurking through almost every K-Pop website and one big fanboy order of your merchandise delivered to his doorstep, and his once-in-a-lifetime concert experience right at his door, no pun intended.

He gets to the venue and walks through the ticket booth, and since he is so early, he makes a hard left turn to the seller's booth to get a lightstick… or two. The original and the limited-edition ones. Can you tell he loves your music yet?

After his wallet is sufficiently drained, he leaves to find his seat in the massive stadium-style arena. He walks down the flights of stairs to the center of the front row in front of the stage.

As the time dwindles, the seats progressively fill up. Soon, the lights in the arena dim, and the dark void quickly brightens with a mix of pastel pink and a deep royal purple. Soobin closes the battery lid on his lightstick, turning it on when the soft muttering and mingling grows into a crescendo as the silhouette of your figure pops up on stage and big screen.

As the recognition sets in, the crowd screams and applauds at your mere presence. Your relish in the attention, lifting your jeweled microphone to your mouth.

"What's up, everybody?" You say smoothly and confidently, dragging out the word as the beat of the opening sequence starts to play. The bass is bumping, outfit is popping, but the audience isn't hitting as much as they should.

"Oh, come on, I can't hear that. Really give it to me." You say, playfully skipping to the beat. In response, the crowd gets louder.

"That's a bit better; it's still early, so I think y'all will really give it to me later. You ready?" You say and wink at the camera, making the crowd go into a scream fest. Loud applause answers your question. The background dancers make their way to position behind you, and you smirk.

"Let's get it!" You say mischievously.

Soobin stares at you in awe, as if he isn't a performer himself. You walk around the stage like you own it, with a mix of confidence, coolness, and awareness, if that makes sense.

Soobin's jaw dropped for so long that his mouth got dry, and he had to whip out some Carmex for his chapped lips. He didn't come back to Earth until the lights dimmed again. Luckily, there's still a good bit of performance where that comes from, so he doesn't have to worry about that.

As you prep for your next set, you can't get that adorable look out of your head. Choi Soo Bin in your front row at your concert.

As a fellow performer with a pretty well-sized fan following, you know how rare it is and few it is to you to do normal people things. With your heavy schedules, brand deals, and variety shows, you barely get the time to do an entire skincare routine for the night, let alone go to a concert.

"hmmm… maybe I should make things pretty unforgettable, a magical experience, if you will." You think as you check your makeup to go back under the hot lights of the stage.

It's time for one of your sensual numbers, and this is where you usually pull one of your female fans on stage, and things get a little spicy… but we are going to tweak it a little, just for today ✨

You give the bodyguards the signal to go get Soobin. You point to him, and he points to himself as to confirm they wanted him. You nod yes, and he practically runs onstage as you are singing.

From watching the fancams featuring the fan on stage, he knew exactly what his purpose was: to follow you around the stage.

You grab Soobin's hand and pull him to the left side of the stage, and he follows. You bend over and jiggle on his front, and the crowd is eating it up. You rise your body slowly in a body roll, snap to turn and grab Soobin's hand and pull him to the other side.

When you get to the other side, you spin around and press your front to his, picking up your leg to drag it up his thigh. He retaliates by grabbing under your knee and hooking your leg around his waist. The crowd is eating up the interaction between two idols with incredible stage presence. Song's almost over, so it's time to have some real fun 😈

You grab him by the collar, trying to maintain your control on the set. His eyes go wide, and it's hook, line, and sinker from there. You walk back towards the staircase on the upstage center section. He follows, subtly checking you out as you gracefully walk up the stairs. You spin around to face him as he looks down at you. You grab the back of his head and bring him as if you are going to kiss him, and the floor lift goes down.

As the floor descends, he quickly grabs your waist, both of you touching chests. Soobin then turns and waves his lightstick at the crowd as the lights dim and your bodies' silhouette shows on the big screen.

The crowd's screaming sounds dull as you move under the floor with Soobin on your tail, and the intermission begins. You take him to your dressing room, and it is time.

You have about 30 minutes, give or take to make it do what it does. You push him on the couch in the room and straddle his waist. Soobin's face reddens as his brown eyes follow your figure up to your face as you have a mischievous smile planted on it.

"Did you enjoy the show?" You ask in his ear as your hands make their way down the hidden chisels under his shirt. Soobin babbles and stutters as the realization of what is happening hits him. Y/N has their hands on his body, let alone in this sensual manner.

"Coherent words, bun." You unbuckle his belt and slide your fingers into his waistband.

"It was really amazing; I had-"

"Was? Show's not over yet, love." You move his boxers down his thighs and casually pull his dick out of its confines, stroking his length with a nice, firm grip on the shaft as you move your fist up and down on him.

Soobin's breath hitches in his throat as your grasp tightens slightly. The sensation went up to Soobin's mushroom tip and leaked out pre cum. You smile at the tiny gesture and open your mouth to lick it. Soobin's head flies back at the light touch of your warm tongue tasting him.

"Listen to me, sweetheart," You lean up to kiss his neck. You feel him shudder at the close proximity of you on him.

"I hope you're ready; main event's just starting." You kiss him, allowing him to taste the combination of you and him.

"Someone's enjoying themselves." You snicker mentally.

"Are you okay? Can I continue touching you?" You ask. A mix of pants and whimpers are delivered before he opens his mouth.

"Yes, please. Keep doing that." He whispers, voice so light and airy, you almost missed it. You chuckle as you take him into your mouth. You take it as far, nearly gagging, to see how you're going to do this. Soobin grips the love seat cushions as you do your thing, his knuckles paling by the second.

You look up at him to see if he's taking it well, and you would think that he's doing better than that. His head is thrown back, and you can see a light but clear vein run up the side of his neck. His mouth is slightly parted as he enjoys the sensations you're giving him.

You lift up, leaving trails of spit connecting you to the tip and length, and you move to leave kisses down his cock. You reach his balls and take them into your mouth. Soobin moans at the sudden suction, bringing his big hand to your head and gripping your hair by the roots.

You moan on him, the sensations of the fist in your hair.

In a domino effect, Soobin grunts as he is overstimulated for a second. You start to move your hand faster, and his hand rubs against the material, trying to figure out what to do with himself. His breath quickens, and his eyes shut tight as his moans raise in volume.

You tighten your grip on his dick and focus your twisting motions on the tip, and he automatically starts squirming.

"Ahhh fuck, oh my god, yes. Yes, yes, yes!" Soobin exclaims. You feel the small spasms of his muscles twitching, signaling his orgasm.

"Please keep going. I'm gonna cum." He pants out.

You lift your head up to see his reaction, which looks absolutely stunning. Soft flush all over his face and up to his ears. Breath labored. Fists white. Hotel Trivago. (a/n: i am so sorry XD)

"You look so pretty when you let someone take the reigns for once. Such a cute little bunny, baby." You praise, and that was enough to send him over the edge.

Soobin grunts as he releases and you let go and the same time. Soobin whimpers "no," continuously quiet as the sensation diminishes, and his cum coats his thick thighs. His cock twitches as it empties every drop, trickling down his shaft.

You rub his hair up off his face and down his neck, feeling tiny beads of sweat on it. You kiss his cheek and lean back to his thighs. You proceed to lick the warm cum, collecting every last bit in your mouth. You then move up to kiss Soobin. He graciously accepts what you give him, relishing in the mix of your natural taste and his seed.

You separate, put your hand around his neck, and lean over to his ear.

"Swallow." You demand, and he obliges. You sit up straight and see a slight twinkle in his eye as he looks up at you.

"Good boy." Punctuated with a peck on the lips.

You then get back up and start moving around, and his eyes follow.

"As much as I would love to say back here, I have to get back to my set." You fix your soft makeup. "You might want to get yourself cleaned up, or don't. I'll make you a mess again anyway." You turn on the monitor of the show camera so he can watch the concert from the comfort of your dressing room.

"I really hope he stays for the set. I didn't even finish or start on my part, for the matter." You think, walking to the backstage hall, where a camera guy is waiting to start a stream to the main stage.

"I can't wait for the next concert." Soobin thought as he wiped the excess fluids off his thighs with a tissue from your makeup stand.

I really hoped you enjoyed it and if you have any ideas, you would like for me to write, drop an order in my ask box 🎁 I don't bite

Between Us - episode one an intrepid reporter watches, without having seen UWMA

Going in, I know next to nothing about this show. I have the tag filtered, and I haven't read the summary or seen the trailer. I did see part of the first episode of Until We Meet Again, but as far as I remember these characters weren't in it. The only information that has made it through the cone of silence is that either the characters or the actors are named Win and Team, one of them is blond, and they did a bunch of product placement in UWMA, possibly with Lay's chips. And I'm not very positive about any of that being true.

summary after watching: For me, this show is holding up on its own. It turns out I did remember more about the beginning of UWMA than I thought, but I feel like Between Us would work even if I didn't know UWMA's basic premise. Yes, Pharm's flashbacks would be confusing, but they're also confusing for him so I don't think that would make the episode too confusing overall. There are a lot of things I still don't know, but it feels like normal episode one information still to uncover, not plot holes because the show is assuming I already know the story. And, up to a point, I would rather have less information than too much, so I appreciate the mystery. I was surprised by how prominent Dean & Pharm's story has been so far. I expected it to be more background. I wonder if its going to stay this prominent, or if it's more to set the stage. Overall the show feels very professional and... not expensive, but adequately funded. The production values all feel pretty high - lighting, sets, editing, soundtrack, cinematography - and the acting is very good. It all makes me trust these storytellers know what they're doing. So yes, I am hooked. I can see why y'all have been so excited about this show. I will definitely keep watching.

Below are my notes as I watched. I took a lot so they're beneath the cut.

So. Diving in.*

*pun unintentional at the time, but appreciated now post-viewing

- I like this parallel morning opening. Blondie with the tattoos is hot, pushing back his hair to the rock soundtrack. Actually they're both cute. I like the alarm clock cliche, although Mamoru from Kabe Koji wins with his 20 plus clocks, and Wah from Why You... Y Me? still beats this guy with his paltry single alarm clock.

- The cool kid and the chaos boy? That's my first impression.

- Hmm. Swimming pools may be important? based on the opening credits.

- Aw. A crash-into-you with an adorable het couple. Including whats-her-name (Sammy?) from those other shows I can't recall. Were they in UWMA too? (Don't answer that.) Interesting that they get to meet each other first, before our main couple.

- ooh... A one sided pining situation? or love crush at first sight? I can't tell yet.

- And here comes That Fucking House 2.0. I guess I knew four things about this show- I'd heard she was in it too. (Do you think there is stock footage of the exterior that all these shows are using, or do they each shoot their own?)

- Wait, is that Santa?! He looks so different, I mostly recognized him by voice. I'm still not sure, I haven't gotten a good view of his face yet.

- Ah. Team at least is a swimmer. That makes sense with the pool footage. And now I've figured out their names.

- I like Team's dorky new friend group! I don't always like the comic relief characters but so far A, Bee and Sea seem fun. (Also love the names joke.)

- I feel like I just saw this pool in something but I can't remember what show.

- I think I like Win's friend group dynamic as well. Whew, that's a relief. I also like Win's slight mysterious brooding air. And the way he looks at Team, with the heavenly music on the soundtrack. (so I guess it is crush at first sight? rather than long term pining?)

- so far I've gathered Team is a first year and Win seems to be a sophomore or a junior, but my instinct is junior. (I don't know if the U.S. terms apply in Thailand.)

- Team seems like a sweetheart so far. Is Win making this announcement about scholarship students not being guaranteed a spot in a "I like you. Get out of my school" kind of way, or is it just a coincidence? Either way, its stressful. Athletic scholarships are a fucked up system in general.

- Oh Pharm! He's the main guy from UWMA! I recognize him. I (obviously) have no idea where we are in his story.

- My guess is that Pharm and Manow were his friends in UWMA, but A, Bee and Sea are new for this series.

- Win looks so cool, even his sauntering walk. I totally would have had a crush on him in college.

- Oh! I was about to get excited about their first real interaction but they were just teasing us.

- Is Win basically raising his brothers? He acts like it.

- It is Santa. He seems so different here somehow.

- Tul looks vaguely familiar, but I'm not sure from what.

- Hmm, what is going on with Team? Why is he being mopey?

- I continue to really like the way Win looks at Team, and how they show Team as totally oblivious.

- oh. That's why this whole thing with Manow is familiar? I think I did watch this part of UWMA where they watch the swim tryouts. So I guess Pharm's love interest is one of the other guys on the swim team? I honestly can't remember what he looks like, or how they met. Ah, I guess this must be him staring love struck. It's slowly coming back to me. (Are these scenes reshot? or are they using footage from UWMA?) Ah Dean, that's right. I did know his name at some point. So far I'm finding him more intriguing here than I did in the little bit of UWMA that I watched.

- oh yes, I remember that Pharm was in the cooking club too. It's slowly coming back. Maybe I did watch a little more then I thought.

- These hints of Dean and Pharm's story are working for me. Perhaps they're just there as a treat for UWMA fans, but I'm enjoying them as well. But I do know the basic premise of UWMA, I suspect I would be more confused if I didn't know the whole second life thing.

- Also, I was not expecting this much of their story. It really feels like a side couple, rather than a couple whose story is over and done with. Which perhaps makes me expect that the makers intend this story to stand on its own - that Between US and UWMA are supposed to be parallel pieces, rather than a main show and its companion.

- There is a lot more attention to Pharm & Dean's story than I was expecting though. Which isn't a problem, I was just expecting them to be more background characters. And this is making me want to watch UWMA more than seeing the beginning of that show did.

- Aw, what a good friend Team is. And Win thinks so too. Yet again, I like the way Win looks at him.

- So far I have No Idea what Win & Team's story is going to be - what their conflict or obstacles will be. But I don't mind, I'm still intrigued.

- Is Tul played by the same actor who played the horny roommate in Love By Chance? If so, he's certainly been typecast, poor guy. I did like him in LBC though.

- They finally interact! I love how Win is always tracking Team with his eyes, while Team remains basically oblivious to existence. Ignoring him, not in a mean way, just in a only aware of him as a generic swim team leader way.

- Ouch. The make up artists here are good.

- Win. What is your deal? You obviously have a crush, why are you so mean to Team to his face? I am Intrigued.

- Dean comes across as such a weirdo, omg.

- Interesting that it feels like In learning more about the setup of Dean and Pharm's relationship than about Team & Win's. I admit that I'm getting a bit impatient with it. Part of the reason I dropped UWMA is that I didn't find Dean's actor that compelling and I still don't (so far, that could change).

- Ah, some insight into Team: "You never let anything be important to you!" I do like his and Dean's friendship.

- Um, WHAT is Team's friend (I can't remember if he's A, Bee or Sea) wearing as a pendent? It looks like a piece of fried chicken.

- oof this porn watching scene is so awkward. Poor Team. It does all feel realistically adolescent though.

- Ok, wow, I was not expecting THAT. I like it though.

- on shit, and Team's following him!

- oh I really like this sex scene. See BL, consent is sexy. The way that Win, keeping tight rein on his very obvious desire and arousal, makes sure that Team wants this, that he knows what he's doing. It is Very Hot. And their chemistry is fire. I also like how cool kid Win has his post-shower fluffy unstyled hair, making him feel much more vulnerable.

- I don't know if it's intentional, but I like the contrast between Pharm and Dean's literally destined love, and this thing between Team and Win, which feels like it could be any college hook up. Yes, Win has had his eye on Team for a while, but as far as I can tell, Team took little notice of Win until his porn induced horniness drove him into Win's arms. And Team I really don't think was planning this, he just got aroused by win's arousal and gave in to temptation. I just like the arbitrary feeling of it against the backdrop of the heaviness of fate.

- I still don't know what their story is going to be. And honestly, if I wasn't being an intrepid reporter I probably wouldn't even try to figure it out, I'm just intrigued by them and their dynamic and content to see where it goes. But since I am doing these reports, my first guess is that they're going to continue to hook up in secret, outside the bedroom Win is going to pretend Team doesn't matter to him, and Team will slowly fall in love and get hurt by this. I'm not very attached to this theory, but it's the best I've got so far.

- Thinking about it, so far I actually know very little about Win and Team as characters. But the actors have made them both compelling enough that I'm intrigued, and want to know them. I feel like my initial impression of Win as "cool kid" is probably correct, but I'm not so sure about Team as "chaos boy." He seems a little more organized than that, a bit innocent but not too naive, kind but not saccharine. He seems a bit of an average everyman in fact, but not in a boring way.

Ok! That's it for now. I probably should go to bed, but I want to watch episode two instead. The nice thing about starting a few weeks behind is I don't have to wait.

182 Days of TPN - Day 166

Chapter 166: "Going Back Home"

I know Vincent reasons that Ray's guess about where the children are being kept was because the security would have an easier time keeping track of everyone there in that room, but I sorta wish someone asked Ray as to why he thought of that specific place and he just replied with "I dunno, just a hunch" instead as a funny callback to Emma's usual responses in the past.

Props to Cislo for helping out even after losing part of his leg. He can't do much with such a bad injury but every bit counts. Still haven't a clue how y'all managed to slip by the several thousand demon soldiers outside but whatevs.

Such an awesome entrance by Gillian and Zack. The farm was just seconds away from switching their power system back on so it's a nice detail that Violet was the first one to notice the duo, as Yuugo mentioned way back during ch99 that Violet can see well in the dark.

Casual reminder that I love Zack very much. The bestest GP boy.

As much I would've enjoyed seeing more of the wolfpack during the raid, having the story cut to them already finished dealing with the guards right after a demon wonders what happened to their defenses is just as good. Really proves how efficient this trio is.

The doors might've been pelted with several rounds of bullets mere seconds before the trio enters the room, but that doesn't make the idea of Emma kicking down the heavy doors any less impressive to me. She did something similar during her time running around the false GF house in the Seven Walls and I still get a kick out of it (pun intended).

Ah yes, a moment I was very much anticipating ever since Isabella was revealed to still be alive. The shock on the trio's faces was to be expected, as even I was surprised to see this woman return. They know exactly how troublesome she was as a mother, but now the danger has basically doubled with her new position as grandma and that thought alone is enough to make someone feel fear, especially with the way she's looking down on them. I dunno if "unbothered" is the right word I wanna use, but whatever kind of energy Isabella is giving off is strong indeed.

The trio ain't backing down though! They already defeated her once, so they're sure as hell gonna do it again! Even Isabella seems amused by the fire in their eyes. And probably relived that they did show up so she can finally move onto the next step of her own plan.

These poor kids being forced to run while all tied up. That certainly can't be easy. Thankfully no one trips. Or maybe they did and we just don't see it happen, in which case I'm sad because despite the intense situation they're all in, I probably would've laughed at that poor soul. We need a little humor here.

Favorite panel/moment:

Such an awesome panel that could've been made so much better if the speech bubbles weren't covering Don & Gillian! Aaahh.. and there's really no reason for them to escape either since the passageway to crossover into the human world is located at GF.

you with college Bo: every man-attracted person will be so. jealous. also he may or may not still flirt with people.

you with college Lester: so much mutual infodumping and puns. you can't really stay in the library cause you're always laughing too loud. people give you weird looks when passing you in the hall or anywhere cause you're always joking or talking about weird stuff.

also

what i one were to end up with both of the twins 👀 how, why, would they keep it a secret from the other students? 👀👀👀

yes i want both to fuck me at the same time i am a whore at heart

- 🔪

God, y'all gotta stop giving me a platform to just spew the contents of my brain. I am so fucking long-winded it's dumb. Please never stop I love it so much.

College Bo is a goddamn dreamboat. He's got admirers in every class, gets invited to every social gathering, professors either adore him or loathe him. He insists on walking you to class though, and expects you to wait outside for him when yours ends first. Sure, he'll be chatting up some cutie on his way out the door, and Bo communicates exclusively in flirtations and threats. But those baby blues light up when he sees you like they don't for anyone else, and he'll tap out in the middle of a conversation to wrap you in his arms and give you a kiss because goddamn, he missed you so much in the last hour it's unfair. And don't even get me started on what happens if someone else takes notice of you. His arms are around your waist, both of them, locking you in. He sets you on his lap, kisses your neck, physically steps in front of you. Do not touch what is his.

Lol you and Lester get no studying done together but it is not due to extracurriculars (usually). It is because every concept is a gateway to three new concepts. And every word that sounds even a little bit odd or inappropriate becomes a whole thing. The library is off-limits so you sit on the grass or at a picnic table instead. Your favorite is when he excitedly grabs your arm between classes and tells you he cannot wait to show you this thing he read in American lit, or explain to you something wild he just learned about a bug. It took him his whole life to finally get the chance to appreciate learning about something he cares about and he cannot get enough.

College polycule with both twins AHHHHH. I am so on the same page with you, Knifey my darling. Two Sinclairs one me please and thank you.

How? You met them separately, were interested in both, did not realize they were twins or even related. They're polar opposites in a lot of ways, after all. You flirted with both of them and when they realize they have been raving about the same person on the drive home this whole time, they have a discussion. They come to an agreement. They confront you together and you are stunned by the revelation and by the fact that they are proposing they share you.

Why? Because are you kidding me, hell yes I want to have my cock cake and eat it too. Two Sinclairs are better than one! (Three is better than two ehe) And they are both equally selfish and concerned for the other's well-being. They want to see the other happy, but neither wants to give anything up. If you're open to it, it's a nifty little solution.

Is it a secret? At first, I think yes. This is new to all three of you. They've shared a lot of things, but never a partner, and they want to take it relatively slow at first to make sure it works. Nothing will get between the two of them and they'd drop you in an instant if it was straining their relationship. They try to take it slow. But damn if they don't really, really like you. And you balance the two of them so well. Before long, it's more trouble than it's worth to keep your unconventional relationship a secret. So you kiss them both goodbye before class. You walk across campus between them, holding both of their hands. You can be found studying together in the student lounge, Vincent slouched on a chair, you perched between his legs, your feet up on Bo's lap. And with the two of them, you enjoy such immense scary dog privilege that anyone who gives you a second glance gets a sneer from Bo and a deadeyed stare from Vincent, and that's enough to shut them up before they even start.

My TWST OCs reacting to being kissed! - Headcanons

tag list: @jades-mushroom @ultimatehope213 (lmk if you want to be tagged)

summary: you kiss the four (whether on the cheek, lips, etc) and they didn't expect it lol featuring: Azrael, Erlik, Gothel

Azrael:

- oh? what's this? you think you are gonna get away with kissing him?

- let's be honest, you kissed him in hopes to shut him up

- it didn't work <3

- "you wanted to kiss me that bad, hm~? now it's my turn~"

- kisses you on the lips back, then definitely will tease you about it.

- though, he wouldn't mind if you kissed him in a way to shut him up <3 even though it won't work

- another reason you could've kissed him out of nowhere where he was in the middle of explaining a joke and you wanted to catch him off guard

- which that was a mission sucess, he was caught off guard as he took a few seconds to process what you did

- he probably made a pun about the situation

- "haha get it cause you kissed me right now-"

- istg with him but either way you did make him blush though (payback for all the times he flustered you)

- but still ends up making you blush in the end

Your tiger boyfriend, Azrael was in the middle of telling you the jokes he had come up with recently since only Ruggie had seemed to find them funny in his dorm. Meanwhile you weren't even paying attention. You were staring at his pierced lips. Wondering about if they are as soft as his hair.. Or maybe you just wanted to shut him up.

"So then the joke is funny because-"

The tiger was cut off by your lips crashing onto his, catching him off guard. Which you pull away to see what he would do. A blush crept on his cheeks before he pulled you back to him and kissed you on the lips to kiss you back. Now you were the one caught off guard. Then once he broke the kiss he smirked at your reaction.

"What~? You think you can kiss me and get away with it~?"

Erlik:

- erlik.exe has stopped working

- he was telling you about his shell collection or talking about a shell before you suddenly kissed him

- or y'all were listening to Line Without A Hook by Ricky Montgomery because that's his favourite artist (and singing along probably)

- and you were like "imagine if we kissed while listening to this song"

- and Erlik was like "😳 what-"

- and than you kissed him

- it took him a moment to process it andnyou saw the huge blush on his face

- the shark was too stunned to speak

- he couldn't speak properly, and avoided his gaze due to how flustered you made him

- like he forgets how to breathe because of you

- though he definitely would say he loved the kiss <3

- then you continue to listen to music together though you do it innocently but you can still see him so flustered because of you

You were listening to Line Without A Hook by Ricky Montgomery because Erlik's favourite artist is Ricky Montgomery and you also like Ricky's songs. Anyway as you two sang along and sway to the music, a thought appeared in your mind.

"Imagine if we kissed while listening to this song."

"Wha-"

And with that you pulled him down to your height and kiss him. His face had a bright blush on his face but kissed you back. You break the kiss to see Erlik, processing what just happened, before becoming even more flustered again. You giggle at his reaction, continuing to listen to the music innocently as the shark boy was left speechless and can't even speak without fumbling on his words.

"Y-Y'know.. I, um, Iwouldn'tmindifyoukissedmeagain-"

Gothel:

- you wanted to get him back from flustering you

- so y'all are like baking together, making some cookies and enjoying yourselves

- and like most you get into a little food fight.

- at the end, Gothel had some batter on his lips

- "Stay still." "Huh-"

- And then you kiss him. Which he has a nice blush on his cheeks and forgets to breathe for a moment

- Definitely teases you a little after

- "Oh? Are you sure that's the only reason you kissed me~?" LMAO

- Though you both clean up the kitchen togther he then would be like.

- "Come here and stay still~" You also had cookie batter on you lmao bc he may or may not have sneakily smeared some on you

You and Gothel were making cookies for just something to do together as it was something you both enjoyed, cooking and baking togther. Which also turns into a little play food fight.

"Gothel."

"Yes, sweetie?"

"Stay still for a moment."

Gothel has no idea but he stays still as you said. What he didn't expect was for you to suddenly kiss him. Blushing, he kisses back.

"You had some batter on your lip."

Gothel chuckles, still blushing as he look back at you.

"Oh? Is that so? Are you sure you didn't just want to kiss me for no reason at all~? I won't be mad~" He teases you, causing you to blush

"Speaking of batter, I'm going have to have tou stay still for me~"

First thoughts on Speak Now (Taylor's Version)

Mine

That first "uh uh uh" 🥺 this song sounds so good; like the 2010 one but so much better.

Sparke Fly

I love that she used a video from tour for the lyric video. 2011 Taylor with her 2023 vocals, quite literally. One of my favourite thing about the rerecordings is how the instrumentals sound a lot clearer. The way she sings "I know it's no good" oh god.

Back To December

I really love the lyric videos. "Then I think about summer all times I watched you laughing from the passanger side" so exceptionally good ugh HER VOCALS.

Speak Now

Underrated bop tbh. The "don't you"!!!

Dear John

Wanted to kms from that first guitar strings. I love that the lyric video is a letter. Idk if I'm imagining but her voice sounds more...haunted (no pun intended) in this version. Of course the high note sounds even better.

Mean

Country bop!!! Another wonderful thing about the rerecording is how better Taylor's gotten at enunciating. She made it to the big old city 🥺.

The Story of Us

A pop punk bop!!! The fact the lyric video's a book wkfkwkf I'm obsessed with the little illustrations!! Again, like the 2010 version but better. NEXT CHAPTER

Never Grow Up

I wasn't emotionally prepared for the way she sings "oh darling" in this. Will I ever be able to listen to this without crying?

Enchanted

A lyrical masterpiece with improved vocals!! This song literally defined my teen years and now I got to listen to it for the first time again. She truly sings "I'm wonderstruck dancing around all along" like a lovestruck teenager. I'm obsessed with the post-bridge breakdown. It sounds like it's literally her thoughts echoing. Using photos from the Speak Now Tour and then changing it up to Eras Tour pictures was soooo mean.

Better Than Revenge

32 years old Taylor telling me to go stand in the corner YESSSSSSS. I love her voice on the opening message. AKFKWKKF HER VOICE IN THE BACKGROUND VOCALS. I don't care about the lyric change! Y'all should move on because there's nothing to do about it. Idk why focus on that one lyric when the best one in the song is the entire second verse like, a lyric genius.

Innocent

Oh god her voice. Can we now admit it's one of her best songs? I hope she rerecorded the song knowing it's okay to still be growing up. That goddamn high note.

Haunted

The fact she sounds actually haunted in this version. VOCALS!!! That squeak on the last "I thought I had you figured out" ...lives were changed.

Last Kiss

Can't believe she somehow made this song even sadder and we just let her. You know when Taylor puts a watch in her lyric video it's gonna be the best song you've ever heard. The "mmmm" before the bridge. SO I'LL WATCH YOUR LIFE IN PICTURES LIKE I USED TO WATCH YOU SLEEP

Long Live

I love that she uses videos from the Speak Now Tour!! Another song that always makes me cry with updated vocals. Her arm lyric reads "She's out there on her own and she's alright." I'M GOING TO SOB

Ours

This used to be my favourite song when I was a kid 🥲. Listening to it again healed something in me tbh. 13 years later and they really couldn't take what's ours.

Superman

This song's my little baby y'all stay away from it. Something in his deep brown eyes has me saying HE'S NOT ALL BAD LIKE HIS REPUTATION. The bridge was always so good and so underrated.

Vault tracks!!

Electric Touch (feat. Fall Out Boy)

I was so hyped for this one. The most important collab she's ever made. I LOVE the production. First date song!! This is like Fearless' older sister. I missed her crush songs kdkfke. Obsessed with her telling the time.

When Emma Falls In Love

Oh a piano song?? This is such a classic Baby Taylor song. "I've got my money on things going badly" -> "when Emma falls in love she calls her mom, jokes about the ways this one could go wrong" "and all the bad boys would be good boys if they only had a chance to love her" -> "I can make the bad guys for the weekend"

I Can See You

I did not expect this. "I can see you up against the wall with me" excuse me??? This song's a reminder Taylor has always been That Girl.

Castles Crumbling (feat. Hayley Williams)

The lyric video's giving "I'd meet you where the spirit meets the bone" literally Nothing New's little sister oh my god what the fuck. This song is a lot quieter and sadder than I expected. Hayley's vocals ekdkekfke GOD. I love it when Taylor uses kingdom metaphors in her songs.

Foolish One

Her voice!!! "You are not the exception" -> "you are the only exception" she will not be the one he loves :// IT'S DELICATE. And "my cards are on the table, yours are in your hand" because she was being honest about her intentions while he was unclear and confusing.

Timeless

Taylor really loves writing songs about her grandparents. What a way to end this album. "Even in a different life you would've been mine"

#taylor swift #speak now (taylor’s version)

Hi! I'd like to make a return! Here's the knife that you stabbed me in the back several times with :p

That last chapter of the heavenly body was brutal but enjoyable. I got so excited when I saw it had been updated but also a little sad seeing as how it was the finale. I wanted to read slowly to savor it but I also kept speed reading cus I just had to know how it was gonna end! This caused me to lose my place so many times so I had to keep rereading it lmao

Moving on, I am ashamed to say that no matter how much I tried analyzing other chapters I never saw this coming (not surprising honestly, as I have a brain the size of a peanut). It was a very twisty tale to me and I found the way you wrote y/n pretty interesting. Someone stoic and strong but still needs someone. And the way we got to see how Moon and Sun viewed them made it all the better (May they rest in pieces. Too soon to make puns?). I'm not sure how I feel about y/n’s end(?). Not saying it's bad! I loved it. But when I read “The violet in your eyes continued to glow” it was...haunting? I suppose that's the word for it? It just made me go ‘oh’. In a good way of course! Hopefully, this isn't coming off rude because I mean all of this stuff in the most positive of light!

It was sweet and satisfying to see how though how everything all tied up. I wasn't expecting Freddy to be killed though cus you know... he's Freddy. A lovable guy. No fic ever kills him. I honestly thought I read something wrong when I saw that! That's how surprising it was to me. I'll miss the dude. And Eclipse! Oh, poor Eclipse. Man just can't have it easy, can he? Loses not one, not two, but three important people to him all in a single day. I'm quite glad you added that little ending though of showing him move on. It was bitter but nice to see nonetheless.

Also question! “But when the finale closes in, you can peek behind the curtains, a new one can begin again.” is this about the other aus you've been drawing? I'm excited to see what else you have in store if it is! :0

Thank you for reading all my rambles. Sorry if I misinterpreted anything from your story! It was a joy to read as I said!

Now that it's been a few days I can answer these in hopes that it won't spoil!! I'll even make a spoil tag, sO-

Thanks to the countless comments on the fic, I am happy to say that I was successful in ripping your hearts to shreds, as intended, may even felt a little bad watching y'all's reactions, though ;v;

And yeeeesss, everyone. I am not gonna rip your hearts for no good reason

Absense (of good ending) makes the heart grow fonder (for good ending) :D

I left some hints on that in the fic, bUT IF YOU MISSED STUFF, i am making an explanation one shot (called a bonus star, it's like an answer key) for the future while I'm making a lil...

...goodie ;)

#'the heavenly body' case file in question au #SPOILERS AAA #everyone thank you so much all of your comments give me life and joy #anon asks

Febuwhump Day 15

CW: Necromancy, implied death, implied mental breakdown

AN: it's backstory time y'all

✎﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏

If there was anything that Calixto knows about the situation it is getting itself into, it was that these woods do not give off the right vibes.

For one, everything is dead silent. The trees stand straight, and tall, and as it travelled further and further in, the skyline is soon nowhere to be seen. There is no sound of leaves crackling underfoot; in fact, there are no leaves littering the ground at all. Not even the birds, usually numerous around this time of year, chirp their songs.

After a little while of walking, Calixto realises what's wrong with this place.

This forest stinks of necromancy.

It kneels down to the ground and plucks at a bit of tree. The bark falls off, revealing the tree's rotten inside. Curious, it pulls a little more at the inside of the tree, only stopping when it starts to creak.

It barely steps out of the way when the tree topples.

A little shaken, Calixto continues walking. It got into the forest this way, after all, so it would only be fair that it got out like this, too.

But of course, the Universe just isn't fair like that, and it takes at least a few hours before Calixto sees the sun again.

It's not out of the woods yet (pun intended), but this would have to make do. It just stands there and spins around, glad to not be completely in the dark for a while, even though it knows in the back of its mind that at some point, it will eventually have to go back.

That's when it sees the kid.

Well, maybe not quite a kid, but the person can't be over twenty.

However, it's not their apparent height that's most obvious about them,

it's the moss that's covering half their face.

The kid's just walking around the clearing, muttering something to themself about how they're "not supposed to be here" and how this is "probably the afterlife" and oh.

Is this kid the reaon why this forest has basically been brought back from the dead?

Suddenly, the kid whips around, and Calixto realises that it was probably staring. Fortunately, though, the kid looks just as surprised to see an actual person here, of all places, as it was.

"What the fuck?" The kid says.

Calixto has to hold back a laugh at their immediate response. "Well, hiya there."

The kid's eyebrow furrows in confusion. "What're you doing here?"

Calixto shrugs. "I could say the same to you," it says, "but for your information, I was walkin'. How 'bout you?"

That, apparently, was enough to make the kid have a crisis. "Uh, uh, I don't know," they say, "I was just— sleeping, I guess, or dead? I dunno, but then I woke up and now there's flowers on my fucking face and I'm either not supposed to exist or in the afterlife and, uh, genuinely, I dunno what to do with all this."

Calixto blinks. It was not expecting the kid to go off on a rant just like that. The kid doesn't seem to expect it, either, because they say "Uh, sorry 'bout that, that's kinda weird for me to do that."

Calixto shrugs it off. "Nah, you're fine."

They both stand there in silence for a while, before Calixto speaks up. "Well, do you know why literally everything here has been necromancy-ed?" it says, "Pretty badly, too."

The kid looks taken aback. "No?" they start, before pausing. "Uh, actually, when I woke up, I think I saw a face?" They look like they want to say more, but stop.

Calixto raises an eyebrow. "Yeah? D'you know who did this—" it gestures at the side of the kid's face— "to you?"

They hum, pulling a bit at the moss subconsciously. "I dunno, I saw, I think, ginger hair, maybe, definitely a black cloak. 'Sall I remember, sorry."

Calixto hums. "It's fine." It pauses for a moment, before adding, "I'm Calixto. It/its, if you please."

The kid turns to Calixto. "Pleasure to meet you," they say, " 'm Nyxie. Uh, she/her, I think."

"Hm."

The two stand there in silence for a moment, just looking at each other. The kid— no, Nyxie, definitely looks nervous, as if she's trying to shrink away. She doesn't seem to be able to meet Calixto's eyes. As it looks her up and down, it notes the way she half-hunches in on herself.

Calixto frowns. "You good?"

Nyxie continues to stare for a moment, before answering. "Oh, uh, yeah, 'm okay. Thanks."

Calixto tilts its head in disbelief. "If you need me to get something to cover your face, you can just ask," it points out.

Nyxie stares. "How'd you work that out?" she says.

"Just a hunch."

"Well, thanks. I might have to take you up on that offer."

They sit there in silence for a while longer. "So," Nyxie finally says, breaking the quiet, "When will we be going back?"

Calixto is kind of jumpscared out of its thoughts. "Well, now, I guess," it says.

Nyxie gestures away from the clearing. "Okay," she says, "Let's go. I needa fucking sleep."

Calixto grins, beginning to walk. "Well then," it replies, "yeah. Let's get out of here."

Hey, sorry in advance, this is kinda a rant post/vent post. I try not post to much personal stuff on here because I'd rather y'all view you're old pall 2bit as a nice purveyor of landscapes, bad puns, and calls to overthrow capitalism as opposed to someone having a breakdown in the break room at like 7am. Feel free to disregard, not read, and just scroll right past I just need to shout into the void a little.

I just feel so alone and so burnt out and so empty. I'm at work 60 hours a week and feel so suffocated by it. I have to be the one to put on a happy face, to calm down the patients, to pick up where the other staff fuck up or just don't care enough to do their job right. If someone's getting hit it's me. If someone's cleaning up shit it's me. If someone's cleaning up someone's mistake it's me. And I'm just so damn tired if being the one that everyone else has to rely on. All my patients are just so damn exashting, like I don't expect them not to be needy and aggressive and annoying but it's just every damn second there's something new and they can't just tell me everything they need at once they're gonna make me go back and forth to the same place for every new thing. Idk I'm just so ready to leave here but the only place we're I could make close to this much are just as bad and I am barely making ends meet as is. And it doesn't help things that I still have to be the supportive one everywhere else in my life. The closest things I have to friends always make me feel like the after thought and tag along and barely interact with me if it's not in a group, and when we do I always feel like I have to walk on eggshells because if I say something out of turn they won't say anything to me and just send blocks of text about it to each other later and have someone else ask me to apologize or address it. No one cares about including me, or making me feel comfortable, or doing things I can be apart of. It doesn't help that I don't even feel like I have any support from my partner either. Like I love them, and I get that they're in school and working, but I haven't felt like this was an even relationship in so long and I don't even know how to fix it at this point. I have to cover rent, health insurance, phones, most our food, any significant spending or emergencies, and I still have to give them money to cover personal cost like every ither month. I can't even vent or tell them about issues in our relationship or in my life because they're somehow less mentally stable than I am and it always leads to a breakdown or them not being able to focus on school and work and setting things back further and at this point it's just easier for me to be unhappy and suffering than for me to have to clean up another mess. Literally the only solution I can think of is to leave and get a roommate that could help cover rent but that doesn't fix any problems, it just frees me up of like a grand a month in expenditures so I have the time and money to address my other problems. And even then it's not like I have anyone that would want to move in so I'd be scrambling to find some random person to live with and just hoping that all works out. I just don't feel like I have a home or a place where I can just be myself anymore. I just want to feel like I have people I can be around without being bombarded about when I'm gonna have a kid or get a house or move on with my career, or be made to feel like I'm a threat if I act like anything more than just pleasant wallpaper. I'm just so tired and alone and I just want someone in my life to give a shit and help.

ok so

i picked keigo not only bc i love him

but also bc i think this situation would be top tier comedy no i don't accept any criticism on this

i feel like this cocky little shit would watch you like a hawk (pun extremely intended) while doing some weird ass summoning or just watching smth like buzzfeed unsolved w you

just to see your reaction u kno

ksfksnd and he'd be all like (．＿．?) tf why is this bitch not reacting but also LAUGHING

i mean, he'd find it amusing for a while

but he won't tell anybody, not even his endeavor dakimakura, that he is lowkey spooked by all of those things

ok onto the ~ h a u n t i n g ~ ooooh spooky

whether the haunting was intentional or not, keigo'd just think you're pulling a prank on him

so the cocky façade is ON but don't be fooled,,,

this bird brain is actually feeling weird u kno how animal instincts are

still he'd act like nothing is going on, maybe even humoring you and your antics dkfnskdns

yeah sure, he's skeptic but he can't deny the bizarre happenings that are ocurring in your shared apt

so, he'd look at you dead in the eye, expression as serious as ever

and ask you whether this was just a prank

and you better be honest boo bc you ain't seeing the last of this if you aren't

and ofc if something dangerous happens, expect him to zoom y'all out of that place <3

𝗸𝗮𝘁𝘀𝘂𝗸𝗶 𝗯𝗮𝗸𝘂𝗴𝗼𝘂

LMAOOOOO this whore

this gon be really short bc he really wouldn't give a shit ab this ❤️

expect him to not give you the time of the day if you want to bring him into any of your shenanigans

he'd only be concerned if he sees that you're doing smth dangerous or smth sus is going on

"hey katsuki if you don't help me w this i'll make u cook for the whole week"

"aight bet" *continues doing bakugo shit*

he lit rally won't give a fuck

and we love him for that

𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗼𝘀𝗵𝗶 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗼𝘂

dnfnmdfmls OK

we all know this boy is the definition of chill

i mean have u seen him ever give a significant fuck? No ❤️.

i feel like MAYBE there's a chance that he'd be interested in those types of things, but he won't really show it

wouldn't be too worried, he'd just kind of like,,,

babysit u

if your home gets haunted he'd act like nothing is going on skjfksd

the ghosts tryna open the cupboards? nah fam we'll duct tape them right up or even put a lock on them

oh the chair is on the table?? that's tight, i can mop the floor w no problems now

dkkfks imagine him making friends w the ghosts byeee

orange and gold

...I just need more Cole and Vania content, they seem like they'd be great friends.

Basically it's just 'Cole goes to visit her there, they almost burn down the kitchen, and make way too many puns', lol.

Set a few months after Master of the Mountain, but before Seabound or The Island.

Also yeah, I couldn't think of a better title, sue me- I just know that they wear one of the colours at some point, so... 🤦‍♀️😂

Trigger warnings: none I think? Huh-

Also, bingo!! I really need to learn better time management, dear freaking gosh- I hope I'm not too late though? I know it's like half a day late, eek- and I was supposed to post this earlier, but I ended up literally falling asleep while writing it😂

Thank you so much Fabro, for hosting such a cool event!:D Your comments on my fics literally never fail to make my day<3. And I'm so glad that I met so many awesome, really skilled people through this event too - it's been a lot of fun working alongside y'all:D, I wish I'd had more time to interact instead of posting stuff and vanishing lol, but exams be like:////

Prompt: cooking (does baking count as cooking? I realized too late lol-) from @ninjago-bingo 's warm board.

Word Count: 2497

---

Trying to escape from killer dire-bats hadn't been on Cole's to do list today - although the mountains were kind of beautiful.

It was a bit difficult to see them while he was being dragged to his death, but hey, didn't Jay always tell them to be more positive?

That was, until he made the mistake of looking down.

Miles of snowcapped mountains touched the pastel blue sky, but he was more focused on exactly how high he was from the ground.

Great.

Trying to swing back onto the Bounty, he didn't notice a golden-winged blur shoot past the bat, almost dropping their spear in haste.

"Let my friend go, or I'll-"

"Vania?"

She throws the spear at the bird, successfully knocking one of its wings.

Huh. She must've been practicing - throwing with accuracy while flying seemed kinda difficult.

"I'm so sorry!" she replies, grabbing his arm before he fell down too. She winces at the strain on her wings, almost dropping him onto the deck. "I was supposed to come earlier, but there was an issue with one of the mines, and it took forever to-"

"There ain't anything in this world that's managed to kill me yet," he replies jokingly, checking that the autopilot hadn't been damaged. "I doubt an angry bird is going to be the first."

"Didn't you mention that you became a ghost once? Pretty sure that means you were dead-"

"Shh, that's not an important detail," he jokes.

"If you say so," she replies with a grin. "Did I mention that Chompy's been tearing down the palace flower arrangements again?"

"Send my regards to the gardener-"

"Did you just make a pun?"

"Remind me why I decided to visit you again?"

"Because you love me?" she asks stepping onto the ground as the Bounty landed gently.

"I hereby crown you as my platonic soulmate," Cole deadpans, taking her hand. "Vania and Cole-"

"Destined to annoy each other for eternity," she giggles, swinging their hands up and down. "But seriously - thanks. I don't think I realized how much work being a queen was."

"What's it like?"

"I mean - I'm glad that people trust me, and they come to me if they have a problem, but the paperwork is a nightmare. I never get to go outside anymore, I swear."

"Paperwork? Also, you just invited me here for a week. I don't wanna disturb you?"

"Nah, I cleared my schedule, don't worry. And trust me, you don't want to know. Everything requires some sort of official written thing, and it's so boring-"

"Official? But you're the queen?"

"Well, yeah, but I don't really want to change something unless it benefits the people. Not after..."

Her smile dims, eyes straying to the palace walls.

Oh- oh.

"You're nothing like him," Cole says firmly, squeezing her hand. "I mean, if you need to take a break, or you can make your job a bit easier by cutting out something unnecessary, that's just gonna help you become a better queen. You've definitely got the interests of your people at heart, and that's the most important thing, you know? And well, uh, everything seems to be going great so far - you don't have to beat yourself up over someone else's mistakes."

"Thanks," she replies softly, her smile slowly returning. "Speaking of breaks, what do you think we should do this time?"

"You could show me around the city again?"

"You've already seen everything cool," Vania giggles, skipping ahead of him. "We don't renovate much - unlike you guys-"

"Hey, it's not our fault that our city gets destroyed every few months-"

"More like every few days," she teases, tying back her golden hair. "How about we find some dragons to adopt?"

"Tempting, but where would you keep them?"

"They could sleep in my room-"

She breaks off when she notices him laughing. "What?"

"N- nothing," Cole replies, in between laughs. "Jay and I just made a bet."

"On what?"

"How many dragons you've adopted. I bet at least six, he bet fifteen."

"Well, jokes on both of you - I'm pretty sure my advisor's going to throw a fit if I show up with another one," she starts, giggling. "We've got twenty living in the palace right now."

"Twenty dragons?"

"They're so cute! You just look into their adorable little eyes," Vania pauses for breath, continuing her animated gesturing, "and you can't help but wanna hug them!"

"Oh, Jay's going to be so mad."

"Aww, I'm sorry guys. They're just too adorable!"

"...Wanna hear a funny story?"

"Yeah, sure!"

"I actually used to be terrified of dragons-"

"No way!" Vania exclaims. "Y'all have been on a lot of adventures though, so-"

"Nah, we used to have our own dragons at first. They were pretty cool! I just- I'm a simple guy! Huge animals with wings are scary up close when you're barely a teenager."

"Or when you're really short-"

"We're the same height!" Cole exclaims, facepalming in a bit of a fondly exasperated way.

"I'm two years younger than you-"

---

"Ugh, whose idea was this?"

"Yours," Vania grins, sitting down on the kitchen counter.

"You were supposed to help me, not leave me high and dry!" Cole accuses jokingly, staring at all the appliances they'd found in the cupboards.

"'One must always be prepared for new adventures,'" she quotes seamlessly, waving one of- what was his name again? Mulch something? Oh! Clutch! Some explorer he was, leaving them to die in the pyramid - Clutch Powers' books in the air.

"Fine," he sighs, staring at the old recipe book she'd found in one of their back cupboards. "But you've gotta help me? I almost burned down-" "Woah, what? If you finish that sentence with 'kitchen'-" "In my defense, Kai was playing a prank on me-" "In my defense, I wouldn't like to explain how the queen of Shintaro burnt down the palace by teaching one of her friends to cook," she grins, flipping through the pages. "What do you wanna start with?" "Something simple?" "Have you ever tried baking bread before? It's a lot of fun!" "I haven't really had the time, but that sounds kinda interesting."

He skims the recipe, raising his eyebrows. "Wait, why does this take hours? I thought you said it was simple?"

"Trust me, it is," she laughs, adding, "besides, I still wanna hear about all your adventures!" "Uh... okay," Cole replies hesitantly, "but if this fails, I'm so sorry." "Give yourself some credit, you guys literally saved the world! Multiple times!" "Bold of y'all to assume we know how we did it," he laughs, only half-kidding. "Besides. I botched soup once."

"I've botched toast," she mock-sighs, smiling. "Pretty sure that makes us even."

"Lemme get this straight. You've messed up toasting bread, but you can bake it from scratch?"

"Trust me, I don't know either," she giggles, trying to open a brightly coloured packet of... something? Did flour come in packets that small?

"Uh, why are you opening something called 'feast'?" he asks, eyebrows creased in confusion.

"Feast," she echoes, trying to stifle her laughter. "Off to a... rocky start, aren't we?"

It took him a second.

"I already regret this," he jokes, facepalming. "But I'd say that your puns are, uh, gold."

"I've un- unleashed-" breaking off, she half-falls off the counter, laughing so hard her face starts to go red, "a monster."

---

"Uh, is it supposed to look like that?" Cole asks, frowning.

The mixture looked less like the dough he'd been expecting - more like one of Jay's inventions gone wrong.

Badly wrong, he thought, eyes widening at the goopy mess of foam that threatened to spill over the jug.

"The yeast?" Vania echoes, poking her head out of one of the cupboards. "Yeah, all good! It always looks a little gross, and you're gonna doubt ever eating bread again, but at least it doesn't taste like it's fermented-"

"It's what?"

"Yeah," she grimaces, exaggerating her disgust a bit. "If aliens ever fell from the sky, they'd think we were crazy for eating bread-"

"Aliens? I think we're a bit crazy!" Cole exclaims, trying not to laugh.

Vania smiles, then sighs, lugging a huge bag of flour onto the counter. "I can never open these bags properly," she starts, eyeing the the bag a bit warily, "and it always makes such a huge mess all over the kitchen. You'd think they'd make it easier for people to use, right? I swear-"

He jokingly puts his hands over his ears. "I can't hear you!" "But you know that I've sworn off swearing-" she replies, breaking off with a laugh. "Pun not intended - that actually made sense in my head. I swear!"

"No," Cole interjects with a grin, shaking his head. "You don't, remember?"

"See, this is why we're friends-"

"Friends? Is that all I am to you?"

"Oh, be quiet," she shoots back, exaggeratedly dragging a hand down her face. "I mean, sure, just because everyone thinks that we're dating doesn't mean that we-"

Wait. What?

"People think that we're dating?" he asks, clamping a hand over his mouth in a poor attempt to muffle his laughter. "I- I- really?"

"I know, right?"

"Even my friends thought so at first," he confesses, dragging a hand down his face. "I mean, as much as I love you-"

"I love you too," Vania replies, completely seriously. "Even if you'll always be more like an annoying-"

"Hey-"

"Sibling to me than anything else," she finishes, grabbing a pair of scissors. Cole watches, a little alarmed, as she stabs them into the flour bag over and over.

"Is it... supposed to be this difficult to just open the bag? Seems kinda stupid-"

"Well, er, they have this piece of paper with glue that you're supposed to pull away from the rest of the bag, but it never works properly and I-"

"Well, we could always make our own flour," Cole interjects, laughing. "I mean, I've got a scythe? Let's go!"

"Uh, but we don't have wheat growing here. I don't think it'd suit the climate very well?"

"Wheat a shame," Cole sighs jokingly, measuring out the flour (which had, finally, escaped the bag).

"Oh my gosh," Vania deadpans, "you did not just-"

"Yep, I did."

"You're horrible," she giggles, "then again, I was the one who started this whole debacle, so I think we'll share the blame."

"Debacle? Where'd you pick that one up from? Sounds kinda cool-"

"Oh, it's from a book someone wrote about you guys," Vania says casually, pouring a cup of water into the bowl.

"Hey, uh-" Cole starts hesitantly, twisting his fingers back and forth, then breaks off. "Why'd you read all that stuff about us, anyways? Adventure books don't really seem like something you read a lot, since we have similar favorite books. I mean..."

"Well, um..." Vania trails off, clearly uncomfortable. "Uh- I guess, well, it sounds kinda stupid, but I'd never really met anyone my age who wasn't a royal or something. I... er, I didn't want to be left out, you know?"

Cole thinks back to a scroll; a quest, a sacrifice. One that his friends never seemed to really notice, unless it was with horror or flinches. Not that he blamed them, but - joking about how he was much more useful to the team when he was freaking dead than he was before he'd stumbled and fell in the temple?

That had been a bit far, even for his best friend. Locks could always be picked or something, he didn't need to be a ghost to provide some sort of value-

Well, that's not completely true, is it? a small voice questions, and he can't keep his hands from shaking a little.

"Jay here thinks you're the least valuable ninja."

Not enough to be a performer. Now, not good enough to even be a ninja, apparently.

Well, he reminds himself firmly, you don't have to be the best - just stand up to those who are cruel and unjust.

Nothing but a scar that glowed warm orange occasionally left of the whole Cursed Realm ordeal, sometimes it was all too easy to forget - or pretend - that it had never even happened in the first place.

Other times, like when he'd dropped a glass of water on the floor and his hands hadn't stopped shaking for hours, or when he woke up screaming, expecting to fall through his bed again, it still felt like he was trapped as a ghost. Literally - and maybe a little figuratively as well.

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

"Thanks for trusting me with that," he replies softly. "And I'm sorry. That sounds... horrible, but, honestly, you're a pretty cool person, and I ain't just saying that because we're friends. People can be awful, and they can- they can leave, but you don't need to pretend to be someone you're not for people to accept you. I kinda know what it's like, and it's... just, uh, not great."

"No, thank you," Vania says, rubbing her eyes. "You're pretty cool, too. And I'm glad that we become friends, even if wasn't in the- the, er, greatest circumstances."

"Right back at ya. The fall was pretty terrifying, though," Cole says casually, as if memories of that nightmarish plunge into the depths of earth don't still send shivers down his spine.

"No, definitely! I was so sure we were gonna splat onto the ground or something, thank gosh we didn't."

"Yeah..." Cole trails off, reading the recipe they'd been following. "Oh- do we just leave the bowl somewhere for a few hours now?"

"Oh, yeah," Vania answers. "Other than clean up the kitchen, what else do you wanna do?"

"That's kind of you, but, ah, I don't mind. You can choose something."

"I don't mind either," she replies, covering the bowl with a dishcloth. "Seriously, I don't."

"Same here though."

"Really, I don't mind-" Vania breaks off with a laugh, adding, "Well, actually, there is something."

She doesn't elaborate, thoughtfully gazing out the window.

"Well, what is it? Don't keep me in the dark."

"Ugh, it's kinda stupid-"

"I'm sure that it's not- well, unless you want to try to jump off a flying ship with a homemade parachute to prove a bet to someone-"

"Do I even wanna know?"

"...uh, probably not. We're way too crazy sometimes, our Master has a hard time keeping us in check. Your thing, though?"

"Can I give you a hug?"

Cole blinks for a second, expecting some sort of punchline.

"That's your thing?"

"Well, yeah- I mean, I said it was kinda stupid-"

"No no, that's not what I meant. You're so sweet - that's all."

"Well, not more than you-"

"Nah, you're sweeter-"

"Let's just call it a tie," Vania says with a smile, reaching over to give her friend a hug. "Thank you so much, I swear- well, no, I don't, but you know, anyways-"

"Yeah," Cole replies, laughing softly. "I know."

Hello, Archer and the roundtable !

I couldn't appear sooner at the Roundtable bcz I needed time to take in everything and also bcz I had class today. (yes, on Christmas Day : No Holiday for us 🙂)

Yk what ? I'm just gonna stop coming up with theories now . I have never been this wrong in my life and it immensely hurts my ego .

*takes a deep breath* SO , everything about this episode was super fluffy (As we you expected) and i loved it too like most of us so im not gonna talk about that . What i wanna talk about is the one thing that's been bothering me , and you probably have already guessed it : it's Wai . I just don't know how to feel about everything that happened?? I can't seem to make up my mind on Wai's position now? Is he really trying to make up for his asshole-ness or does he have an ulterior motive? And honestly, i still feel like he's gonna flip any moment? I am not saying what he did was not worth anything, it was to some extent , but i feel like there's a but in there somewhere? I wish I'm wrong tho .

It also might be my trust issues but i hope you understand what I'm trying to say ? My apologies if I'm being incoherent but i had to get this out and the safest place for me to do that is here .

Ps. When Operanon said smth like 'leave the roundtable alone' to me in their last ask , my first thought was that i did smth wrong/ I'm being annoying and my anxiety went 📈 while I started mentally checklisting all the things i might have done wrong . It took me an embarrassingly long amount of time to realize that it was perhaps a joke related to me saying smth about flipping tables in my last ask LOL. (Now if I'm still wrong then this is gonna be much too embarrassing for me to handle).

Anyway, @ Operanon, while i appreciate your confidence in your ability to unmask me , i think it might not be as easy as you think. But I'd love to see you try . I'll reveal what i think are everyone's positions at the Roundtable if you are able to correctly deduce any fact about me .

(But out of all the anons i probably reveal the least about myself so unless I forget to press the anonymous button, which has the highest chance of being the reason for my revelation, only Archer has a chance of unmasking me ) *winks*

PPs, When did y'all unmask Reliable Anon ? I only know about Song rec anon? ( And @song rec anon , God i can't believe you thought u aren't part of the roundtable? You are literally the first member? We all love you .)

Also , *gasps dramatically* y'all have a GC i didn't know about ?!?!? I'm wounded.

PPPs. The feminine urge to send memes and cute animal videos to the roundtable ( specially you Archer ) bcz it's my love language and i love y'all.

PPPPs. I think im the youngest of the roundtable and i hope I'm right.

(Sorry for too many PSs Archer. Thank you for putting up with me)

Have a good day (or night) !!

Unreliable Anon

hello, dearest unreliable anon!!

yikes to classes on christmas, fuck whoever made that decision :/ never worry about not appearing too often tho, we all totally understand that life gets in the way!!

also, your theories are valid ok? there are just millions of ways in which something can go. i, however, can't help but be very "i told you so" about the episode being fluffy. i completely understand your feelings about wai, and i still wouldn't put it past him to have ulterior motives (pa-related, perhaps?). we shall see what happens next.

re: p.s. - you are NOT being annoying at all, you are absolutely lovely and delightful and we love that you are here. it was definitely one of operanon's famous puns!

also, i do want to say that if y'all ever want to unmask yourselves and go off anon, you will need to tell me specifically, because otherwise, i would never post your meant-to-be-on-anon asks that you accidentally sent off-anon.

re: p.p.s. - we did not unmask reliable anon, we just know they are australian, which they ended up telling us after i pointed out that they said "do a runner", which is something only specific to a number of english dialects.

and sorry, but we don't have a gc with the roundtable! i only know the true identities of two people out of the entire roundtable, and i am in one group chat, but it's not connected to the roundtable.

re: p.p.p.s. - drop memes into my inbox any time, honestly <3

re: p.p.p.p.s. - that would make you 18 or less *detective senses intensify*

and thank you so much for stopping by, love!! "putting up" is absolutely incorrect, i love talking to you!!
