Look, we thought pairing my LDB up with freaking Yrsarald Thrice-Pierced instead of Ulfric would be funny.

It wasn't. It was just sad.

As I told my dear sweet @elder-dragon-reposes, it's one thing for one of Ulfric's followers clear across Skyrim to get heart eyes for Ulfric's girlfriendsword arm, but it's another matter entirely if it's one of his generals. In his own city.

Yrsarald remembers the Dragonborn from when she came to call Ulfric to the Greybeards' council. He remembers that she was soft-spoken and adamant about the World-Eater. She's hopeful and compassionate, and that stands out to him, even if she is an elf.

Ulfric doesn't seem to mind her ancestry, so Yrsarald elects to ignore it untilunless it becomes a problem.

News comes that Alduin has been banished, and the Dragonborn is about Skyrim, helping people. It's . . . nice that the foreign half-elf seems to care so much for the well-being of Skyrim and her people. Yrsarald keeps tabs on her through the informants and spy networks. It's a matter of security if the Dragonborn turns traitor to Skyrim and helps the blasted Thalmor. Galmar isn't keeping up with it, so for Ulfric and the Stormcloaks' sake, Yrsarald is.

But all he hears are good things. She wins admiration everywhere she goes, but she doesn't belong anywhere. Balgruuf the Greater is trying to tie the Dragonborn to Whiterun, but she's as flighty as Kyne's winds. Somewhere in there, Yrsarald learns her name is Leara Ormand and she's from HIgh Rock. She grew up on magic and chivalry. She probably sees life as a fairy tale. He may disdain her for it.

But then she comes to Windhelm. They've had troubles of their own, being stretched between the care of the city and fighting a war. And she solves problems. He hears she's investigating the serial killer in town . . .

. . .then finds the Butcher, and she's hurt? Ulfric is concerned, but Yrsarald finds himself livid. He cannot see his Jarl's worry for his own shame that their hero came to help them, and all she got in return was a bleeding wound and permafrost on her skin.

Imagine being so in love with an otherwise mythic figure, a celebrity, that you can't see that your friend, your brother, is also in love with her. How can you see it when you aren't ready to admit your own feelings?

Leara is renting a room at Candlehearth when Yrsarald decides he needs to pay his respects to her. She is surprised when he meets her near dinner. He has never seen a woman so precisely featured before. She's not in armor (he's only seen her in silver plate); her hair is down (curling in blood rose vines) and she's bundled in a cornflower blue dress (it's loose to accommodate her bandages). He wants to sit down and talk to her, but he doesn't. He thanks her, though, and she smiles. He stops by the counter later to make sure Elda sends her a dessert .

"But don't bother her with who it's from." "Well if that's how you choose to show your appreciation."

Yrsarald buys Leara sweets after that. She doesn't know it's him. She knows it's someone who appreciates her service and feels bad about her getting hurt, but Elda won't crack. Drat the woman.

Leara wonders if Ulfric is gifting her the sweets. She wants to hope it's Ulfric. She wants their past to be past and for her to appreciate everything she continues to do not for him, but to his benefit; she wasn't drawn in by his smile or anything. Who else would it be if not him? Ralof? He's not in town. General Stone-Fist didn't seem too bothered about her.

Leara's still healing. She's not bedridden or anything, but she's not fit to go beyond the city gates where there are bandits and dragons and necromancers (oh my!), so she decides that visiting the court wizard might be a fruitful investment of her time. She shuffles off to the Palace of the Kings. She runs into Jorleif right off and, on telling him she'd like to visit the court wizard, he's ready to take her to Wuunferth because she's been to see him before, and after all, she is the Dragonborn.

And this is that delightful moment when fate can swing either way because if Ulfric shows up and offers to walk Leara, that's all she wrote. Yrsarald's lost his chance because now that soft smile from Candlehearth is directed at the Jarl, not him, and Yrsarald will never get it back.

But maybe, just maybe, if Yrsarald gets to Leara before Ulfric does, if he captures her attention in conversation, maybe she'll look at him.

For a general commanding troops, it's terribly hard to be brave before a woman.

He would ask her how she's healing from the attack, and Leara would sigh, tired with herself but patient in her speech, because she's healing but she feels like she's letting the people down. And the tips of her ears might turn pink (Yrsarald didn't know elf ears did that) because Leara didn't mean to be that candid and trouble him – but Yrsarald is tripping over himself to tell her that she's done more for Skyrim than anyone (why is his neck red?) and it's reasonable for her to convalesce after an injury.

"Rest and eat apple tarts." ". . . how did you know I was eating apple tarts?"

Yrsarald coughs (he did not mean to tell her that). Leara is staring at him. They're at Wuunferth's quarters. She blinks at him before thanking him for guiding her through the palace. Then she's gone, and Yrsarald is kicking himself for being an idiot.

He's smitten.

Soon (too soon) Leara has healed from her injury and she's at the palace again, but this time she's offering to help Ulfric negotiate a permanent peace between both sides. Ulfric's seen Leara at the table, he knows what she can do. Galmar is more skeptical, but when Ulfric looks to Yrsarald for his opinion (and Leara's too-blue winter deep eyes follow) he says to let her have at it.

Leara needs to be brought up on the Stormcloaks holdings and Ulfric says he'll help her, but then Galmar needs him for something else and Yrsarald (does NOTdoes) jumps at the chance to help the Dragonborn. She's attentive and quiet, and asks the right questions about supplies and movements. And Yrsarald realizes as he's talking to her that Leara has been in a war before.

"Were you in the Great War?"

The stiffening of her shoulders is almost imperceptible. He'd have missed it if he weren't watching her so intently.

"Yes."

Her reply is measured. She does not lie.

"Legion?"

Because everyone was in the Legion then. Back when it fought for Skyrim. He wouldn't fault her if she was . . . why is her face sour? Her mouth is pinched.

"It doesn't matter–" "It does."

Why does it matter? He wonders, why is he pressing?

Her eyes are wide. So wide and too-blue.

Leara looks ill.

And then he knows.

He knew from the beginning she couldn't be trusted. She was an elf. All elves scurried back to the Thalmor in the end. She was here for that blasted Thalmor "ambassador" – she would betray Ulfric and the sons of Skyrim to their deaths!

There's a breathless scream.

Yrsarald doesn't realize until then that he has her on the ground. She's so small and too precisely featured. Her eyes are too blue. She's a traitor, a liar, a fraud–

The Dragonborn does not care for Skyrim.

"Yrsarald, please–"

Yrsarald growls.

Why is she crying? Doesn't she realize what she's doing to Skyrim? – Done to him? All this time and Yrsarald realizes he let Leara lure him into a fairy tale, only for her to shatter it with frigid reality when he thinks, when he thinks . . .

He might love her.

But elves can't love.

"You will rue the day you stepped foot in Skyrim, elf!"

She's sobbing. If she were really a true Dragonborn, she'd try and Shout him off, but Yrsarald wonders if she lied about that, too. High Elf illusions.

"Yrsa–" "What's going–?!"

Then Yrsarald is yanked back forcibly. Galmar is there. And Ralof. And Ulfric.

Ulfric is on the floor with her. Kneeling beside her as she gasps and tears turn her white gold face into wet porcelain. Kneeling beside her as if the elf wasn't going to sell Ulfric and everything they'd worked for to the Thalmor!

Yrsarald strains against Galmar and Ralof. He grits his teeth.

"She's Thalmor!"

Galmar stills. Ralof pales. Ulfric's head is bowed. She isn't making any noise but she struggles to breathe and it's tearing Yrsarald apart and enraging him all at once.

"I know."

And with those words, Yrsarald questions everything he ever knew about Ulfric Stormcloak. Ulfric knew she was a Thalmor spy? Was he coming to stop her – but . . .

Then Ulfric is lifting Leara from the ground, helping her to her feet, and it's too gentle for a King about to arrest an enemy.

Her hands are grasping Ulfric's arm, her eyes wide. Ulfric's face is drawn.

"We will discuss this later."

And he walks out with her. And the elf is free. And Yrsarald doesn't understand.

And then Galmar speaks:

"What in Oblivion did you do?!"

Yrsarald . . . doesn't know anymore.

What he learns later is more than he could stomach. Leara was a member of the Thalmor and she was a member of the Blades before that, and during the war, she smuggled information from the Dominion to the Blades intelligence networks and then defected while smuggling Ulfric Stormcloak from captivity.

He's nauseous when Ralof tells him this. Respectful Ralof – save this time there's steel in his eyes and disdain in his voice.

Yrsarald realizes he deserves that.

Later, when she finds him at Candlehearth, drinking his weight in ale, he realizes he does not deserve the understanding and forgiveness and the self-loathing in her face.

"I know why you did what you did. I can't fault you for it, not when I could've sold your Jarl and cause out to the Dominion. But I–"

Leara's eyes trail off.

"I'm sorry."

He chokes out the words. Her eyes slip back. She was far away.

"I think it's for the best if we're not alone together anymore."

Then she's gone.

Yrsarald buys another round.

The next day, Galmar says Ulfric wants him in the Pale. Far away from the Dragonborn goes unspoken between them.

Yrsarald goes. Ulfric's face is hard when he bids Yrsarald goodbye. The Jarl is not as easily forgiving as the Dragonborn.

Yrsarald is in the Pale when, a month later, news comes that the Dragonborn is handling an armistice in Whiterun. Skyrim divided. What was she thinking? She's thinking for Skyrim, Yrsarald realizes. That's all she's thought about this entire time.

It's a year before he returns to the Eastern capital of Windhelm, and only then, it's because the High King is getting married.

Yrsarald sees her. He doesn't stay long after that.

After all, Ulfric would protect her. Had protected her. Even from Yrsarald.

He could live with that.

#thrice pierced/roseblade hurts actually like i am LEGIT hurt #i mean i actually made my fren CRY 😭#YRSARALD! SHE WAS ALMOST THERE AND THEN YOU THREW HER ON THE GROUND AND SCREAMED IN HER FACE #if he hadn't been an idiot they would've held hands #Or rather #his hand would've been on the table and she'd have put hers on his and done this cute quirky thing with her mouth and he'd have stared at i #skyrim #me at Yrsarald: Marny could've been YOUR SON! Kyneiren could've been YOUR DAUGHTER! You could've had ICE CREAM with Leara all the time!#BUT YOU HAD TO GO AND CHOKE HER ON THE FLOOR AND MAKE HER CRY #You could've bought her MORE apple tarts and she would've actually thanked YOU instead of thinking they came from some other guy!#but ulfric really said check mate and got the firl #yrsarald you dumb LOSER #anyway #rosecloak #FOREVER #oc: leara roseblade #ulfric stormcloak #yrsarald thrice pierced #windhelm #tes #the elder scrolls #ralof #galmar stone fist #last dragonborn #mod post #the ship name is very telling #pierced rose

shy!armin headcanons

a/n: ok so this was supposed to be shy!armin but i guess i just made him awkward??? so hope you like shy awkward armin fluff t/w: maybe slight suggestive at one point?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

meeting armin was, interesting, to say the least. you met him at a mutual friend's house party. he seemed out of place, a nice young man surrounded by a bunch of sweaty, boozed up people. he simply stood to the side, awkwardly speaking now and again while your mutual friend, eren, shotgunned a 16 oz tallboy. the night for you two ended once eren got too drunk and needed to be taken care of by armin.

you would definitely say he was polite, kind, and thoughtful. it just seemed as though he had little to say.

armin was admittingly, very shy. and when he saw you it just made it ten times worse. he was stammering and tripping over his sentences, running out of things to talk about. the mere sight of you made him beyond flustered. his mind was like a broken record, repeating the thought "oh my god they're so cute and they're talking to me what do i do what do i say oh my god"

he hoped he would see you again, just to make up for last time. he made sure that next time he saw you, he had things to talk about, even if they led no where. he even looked up some conversation starters online.

ever since your first meetup he's been crushing hard!!! at first it was really bad, he could barely let a sentence out. but as time goes on armin realizes you mesh with his temperament, and is more willing to talk to you about practically anything.

fidgets with his fingers. usually is standing like the "had to do it to em" guy. he just doesn't know what to do with his hands

mumbles!! trails off of his sentences bc he isn't sure if what he's saying is interesting

if he has something to say in a group setting, he usually waits until people are done talking to speak. most of the time this causes him to wait a little too long, and the group has already moved on with their conversation. because of this, he can be especially quiet with large amounts of people.

you think he's quiet with friends? just wait until you see him interacting with a stranger. that boy can't hold a conversation. usually says a grand total of three sentences to somebody before he can't come up with anything else to say. he'll quickly shuffle away before there's an awkward silence.

he also has a hard time making prolonged eye contact. (especially with you!!) doesn't know how long and when to make eye contact, so he usually is looking away from people when he speaks.

the more you're around armin the more he comes out of his shell, especially when it's just the two of you. he's even confided in you that he wishes he had more confidence so he could do the things he wants. (*hint hint* you)

touch starved!! usually pulls away instantly the second he feels someone's skin touching his. however, if you accidentally touch him, he reciprocates the affection instantly. if you brush your hand against his, he'll brush his hand back with a playful smile on his face. if you lean into him, he'll place his hands on your shoulders and pull you in closer.

wants to buy you gifts but isn't sure if that would be overstepping his boundaries. he has bought a few things here and there to give to you when if you two start dating. he keeps them wrapped up nice and neat in his closet, hidden from anyone just in case they were to ask.

armin talks to you the most out of everyone. despite this he's still rather quiet, choosing to spend his free time with you by writing or doing work. occasionally he'll ask you for tips. he loves the creative energy you two bounce off of each other.

definitely has looked up "how to get a person to like you" and "how to know if someone likes you" on google after meeting you

has written out a script for what to say when he confesses feelings for you. he's revised it three or four times at this point. (though, in reality, he's probably just going to accidentally admit he likes you)

#so sorry if its not accurate #｡ﾟ(｡ﾉωヽ｡)ﾟ｡#armin x reader #armin arlert #arminxreader #armin x you #arminxyou #armin x y/n #arminxy/n #attack on titan #aot #snk #shingeki no kyojin #headcanons #headcanon #writing.exe #writings #writing #anime

Just seen the Charles x micah's sister reader, very cute :) !! Could we get some headcannons for micah and his sisters relationship? Like do they get along ? Thank you :)

Thank you for requesting, anon! It's a nice spring day. The sun is shining brightly and the mountain looks beautiful. I'm listening to the birds while the deer eat my bushes. This is a perfect day to write some HCs, so let's get to it!

Micah's Younger Sister - Headcannons

- Micah loves his sister but his version of love is very skewed. We know by the stories he tells of Amos he doesn't seem too fond of his brother; however, the letter Amos sends Micah suggests Micah cares enough about his brother, (and thought his brother cares enough about him), to inform him that he was not hanged and that he's doing well.

- This suggest to me that Micah does have some love for his siblings. I think he would really love a little sister. Especially if the age gap is big enough because he can probably easily get her to listen to him and do whatever he wants.

- We know that Micah Bell the II was an awful father. If Micah's sister grows up with him, I can't see Micah ever protecting her from their father's wrath. However, I do think he would offer to teach her how to stand up for herself.

- I view this in more of a 'sibling unity' type of way. He's not doing it to protect her, but because he wants his siblings to be at his level. They grew up the same way and endured the same abuse. I think Micah might feel as if his siblings are the only people on earth who will ever truly understand him.

- He teaches her how to use a gun. Probably buys her a gun specially engraved. Of course, his sister has a wicked quick draw, taught by one of the finest gunslingers.

- I also think Micah would gift her a hat that looks similar to his. It would make him swell like pride to see her in his image.

- They hang out a lot! Neither of them would admit it but they're best friends. His sister is his little buddy.

- It's odd having a brother who doesn't like women but likes you. It fills her with a sense of pride whenever Micah treats her better while simultaneously disgusting her.

- They'll go into town to see a show together every once in awhile or do mundane things like getting their horses shoed or stocking up at the general store.

- Of course Micah's favorite activity to do with his sister is to put her to work so he can rob folk easier. This is all she's even know, so to them it's more like a hobby and they always end up having a blast!

- Micah is clearly very bitter Amos didn't stick by him. After Amos leaves Micah would immediately sink his teeth into his sister, figuring out how to make sure she stays by his side.

- Because of this she ends up in the Van Der Linde gang!

- Micah has ways of being charming. Charming enough to eventually make a massive gang of his own. His sister is much more charming than Micah could ever be. She has a unique perspective on life. Being the youngest child of an outlaw, and a woman in a time where she had no rights. She knows a good sense of humor can be a matter of life or death.

- The SECOND Mary-Beth asks her if she likes to read they're immediately best friends! Micah's sister opens up to the other women of the camp easily and creates fantastic relationships with them.

- Despite being friendly with all the women, Micah's sister would be very weary of the men. Of course, she's probably out robbing with them. Used to violent misogyny all her life, it's much harder for her to connect with them even when she spends so much time amongst them.

- Javier would be the first one she opens up to, I think. And it's his music that lulls her into a sense of security. Every time Javier sits down to play his guitar or sing she comes to sit near him and listen until one day she finally compliments him and they start a very pleasant conversation. It also helps that Javier has befriended many of the women in camp. This helps her trust him more.

- Because she hasn't been treated the best by her father or other outlaws, Micah's sister has more empathy. I also don't think she'd follow Micah's footsteps when it comes to racism.

- Dutch repulses her. She's noticed his lingering eyes. His 'compliments' towards her spoken with hot breath. How many times had she been around men who've looked at her that way? Too many. She tries to avoid him the best she can.

- But Hosea???? She's shocked at how fatherly he is. He's kind, wise, and one of the first people to sit down with her to try and really get to know her. I think Micah's sister would yearn for a father figure who is gentler and more human than her father ever was. She opens up to him and wishes he would replace her father.

- The blow-out fights start when she develops a sense of security within the gang. No longer does she listen to Micah. She stopped dropping everything for his beck and call. She's beginning to form a better sense of self. She's safe here, secure, no longer does she have to do what everyone else wants her to do. Obviously Micah isn't very happy and it starts fights.

- Micah assumes it's just a phase and so he drops the subject after they scream back and forth for awhile.

- It isn't until Micah notices that his sister spends a lot of time with Arthur that he becomes furious and jealous. He begins to feel like she's slipping away from him. Their fights become worse and more viscous His sister refuses to back down because she can't understand why Micah is so threatened by her happiness. She doesn't realize, from Micah's point of view, she's abandoning him.

- Eventually Dutch has to step in and tell them to cut it out because they're disturbing the camp's peace. Micah and his sister hardly speak to each other after that except to give the other a snide comment every once in awhile.

- Despite this I think both siblings would be very broken up about it. Micah will feel abandoned while his sister feels betrayed.

- After awhile they're put on a job together. Things go south pretty quickly and they both manage to narrowly escape. While hiding in the forest, struggling to catch their breath, they look at each other and burst out laughing. Neither Micah nor his sister ever talk through their issues with one another. They simply decide they're okay with each other again and resume talking as if nothing ever came between them. Forgiveness is their silent apology.

- Sometimes you just have to accept your sibling chooses a different path but that bond can still remain.

- If she ever gets hurt or shot, Micah will go ape shit!!!! He loves an excuse to slaughter someone. That paired with the threat of his final family member being injured? Oh he'll wreck havoc on the poor soul that decided to fuck with his sister.

- As the days go on and Micah's betrayal becomes more and more clear. Some of the gang start projecting their feelings for Micah onto her. Watching her with great suspicion. This would hurt her deeply. She doesn't want to lose her new family and she'll struggle with this a lot.

- If she falls in love with anyone from the gang, she knows it needs to be kept a secret. If Micah ever finds out.... She knows her lover will "mysteriously" go missing one day.

- I think during the final showdown she wouldn't choose Micah's side. She decides to choose whatever life she started building for herself. Micah destroyed the gang that made her feel loved and accepted for the first time in her life. She's furious with him and can't even look at him anymore. If her lover survives, she'll choose to stay with the lover.

- After a few years guilt will eat away at her and she'll return to Micah, joining his gang. Despite her 'betrayal' I think Micah would welcome her with open arms.

- At the end of the day they're just two lost souls who accept each other in a very raw humanity type of way. No one will ever know them the way they know each other. After everything Micah and his sister have been through together they will always end up in the same place again and again.

I constantly crave affection (but will never admit to that) I really love cuddling, and am definitely touch starved but anyone who knows that has figured it out themselves. Because for some reason my brain thinks I don't deserve any of it.

I am way too nice to everyone, even at my own expense and tend to Bury my emotions when I am in pain. I have Depression and some anxiety and tend to worry about if anyone I know actually likes me while simultaneously thinking that I don't deserve anyone to love me.

I am shy and awkward as heck. But I will talk your ear off if you get to know me.

I love all animals and have a particular fondness for the odd ones. Reptiles and fish are awesome but I love everything including worms that I will rescue from the sidewalk.

I own some fish and shrimp that I love. My plecos and my gecko are like my babies. Especially my boy Groot. He's an albino bristnose pleco and is very ugly, but I love him so much.

Johnny "Soap" Mactavish (a/n: ur lil pets are absolutely adorable!! i literally cannot get over how cute they are, thank you so much for including pictures of them)

How you met: The first time you and Johnny met was definitely a story that entertained all your friends. It all started when you were at the pet store buying crickets and mealworms for your geckos. As you inspected the container of dried insects, someone came up next to you. You first noticed his basket was full of a 5lb bag of dog food that he effortlessly held in one hand. The next was his smile that lit up is face as he looked at you. "I think a restaurant would be a better place to find food don't you think," he asked you and you were a little confused. "But these aren't for me, they're for my geckos," you corrected and his smile faltered a bit. "I uh was just saying maybe I could take you to a nice restaurant some time," he sheepishly said and rubbed the back of his neck as his face grew pink. You had a habit of being terrible at reading social situations and were blushing profusely. "OH, I'm sorry I'm really bad at telling when people are flirting with me," you corrected. "Don't worry, I'm Johnny by the way," he said as he shook your hand, "how about I give you my number and you can call me when you're free? It looks like you have a little army to feed." He wasn't wrong, you were rushing home to feed your babies and this was just meant to be a pit stop. He read out his number as you typed in his number on your phone. "And don't worry if you don't want to, I won't take it to heart," he joked and went to go pay for his things. You stared at your phone for a while as you looked at his contact name "Johnny AKA pick-up line guy."

A peek into your relationship: "Open it," you said excitingly as you pushed the box into Johnny's hands. You had been working on a gift for him for ages and were happy to finish it just as winter was approaching. You had tried your best to keep it a secret and delayed the project as Johnny would always find a way next to you. "Alright, alright, chill little lass," he said as he pulled apart the layers of gift wrap and the lid to a box. You watched intently as he grabbed the two items which sat on a pillow of tissue paper. "You've really outdone yourself, bonnie," he said as he pulled out a crochet hat and scarf. "Heard you can get cold when patrolling and I thought it would keep you warm," you smiled as he inspected the stitches. He eventually saw that you had sewn a little patch with a dog that looked similar to his. "Yer attention to detail is something else," he said as he tried on the set for you. You quickly grabbed your phone as you snapped a picture of him. "That one's a keeper," you said as you laid your head in his lap. He took this time to pepper your face with kisses as you laughed at his stubble brushing your face.

Months later when he was on deployment, you got a message from Ghost that showed the scenery of a snowy cliff and in the center of photo was Johnny bundled up with his scarf and hat.

pls talk about the shelf

i was desperately hoping someone would ask me to rant abt it akehdjshd i'm kissing you sweetly on the forehead anon

okay so if anyone sees this out of context: i have a shelf in my bookcase dedicated to hannibal. yes it's kind of like a weird little shrine but leave me alone.

be warned this is going get LONG.

so, it has the obvious: the hannibal books, the tv show box set, the tv show's cookbook, my fancy copies of the divine comedy (they're hardcover with gorgeous sleeves that have art printed on them to match each book), and i also have the iliad and the odissey in there in a single big book that i bought on a whim when out once and then after buying it i found out it also had the original greek alongside the italian translation and i lost my mind. i've never felt such pure joy and i can't even read greek. yet.

as for decorations, as of right now there's a piece of driftwood that is kinda shaped like an L so it stands up on its own and it also kinda resembles an antler.

there's this fuckin box, i don't even remember how i got it, but it's made of bones. it's shaped kinda like a stereotypical treasure chest but it's literally made of bones. the inside is lined with red velvet.

i'm not sure what else to decorate with? i've put in a seashell but it can't even be seen because the shelf has glass doors but the shell is covered by the frame (might move everything to another shelf where the frame is not in the way tbh just so i can decorate with tiny things at the front).

i just moved this whole thing from my other bookcase (i just got this new one today because i have too many books and in my first bookcase the shelves are literally bending with the weight of the books piled up on them) and when it was there i also had a teacup in there along with a lighbox that says "bone saw time! 🖤" but this new shelf feels very elegant and there's also not enough space for the lightbox. i also had a bust of dionysus there but i'm going to move it to my dionysus altar.

i've got an old scalpel somewhere too and i'll try to find a visible spot to put it. i also have 3 tiny japanese plates that were all given to me as gifts and some souvenirs from japan from a friend too but idk if i wanna put japanese stuff in there. like it's fitting but at the same time idk if it's disrespectful or not.

if i had money and more space i'd make this whole thing bigger and get like. a little frame with fly fishing lures like the ones will made in the show and maybe something like some ethically sourced taxidermy. a snake skeleton and a mongoose skull would be really cool. maybe i could print out a little something with lures instead of buying real ones and like. a fake death's head hawkmoth taxidermy. i'd need some of those shadowbox frames and i'd make it so the pictures stand out a bit from the back so it looks like they have shadows. bc like i'm fairly certain real death's head hawkmoths cannot be ethically sourced at this point in time because ever since silence of the lambs came out people have started going insane over them.

i think my grandpa has this framed thing somewhere with sailing knots made with actual ropes in it rather than just pictures. haven't seen it in ages so i'm not sure anymore if it was my grandpa's or someone else's. probably my grandpa since he was in the marines when military service was mandatory in italy but idk maybe i saw it somewhere else. i could print out a small picture with various illustrations of sailing knots.

i also have these cards that my aunt gave me at one point that have prints of a lot of famous paintings with descriptions in the back and i THINK one was the primavera. it was either that or the birth of venus i'll have to check but either way there's at least one botticelli in there. i don't like botticelli much tho so 🤷

i plan at some point to also get physical copies of all the movies but idk when that'll be since i've found a different box set for the tv show with gorgeous covers that i plan to buy as well. also of the ones i currently own i think one of the dvds stopped working bc it got scratched while inside my pc because i was pausing and rewinding/forwarding too much. we'll see i guess.

now for the rest of the books. i have a medical book in there called the abc of the human body. i think the title is kind of hilarious for a hannibal shelf. i just found out today while moving books back and forth from one bookshelf to the other that i actually have two copies of this book and one of them was owned by a doctor that died i think like 15 to 20 years ago. i have a few other medical books that said doctor also owned on the shelf above. he also owned the scalpel i mentioned before.

there's the book skulls by simon winchester, which is a collection of pictures of skulls from one of the biggest skull collections in the world, along with a few inserts on biology if i remember correctly? i originally bought it for art references and i LOVE the cover so i made sure it was facing forward in the shelf.

there's the resurrectionist, which is a sci-fi/fantasy book kind of in a frankenstein-esque vein where the main character is this made up doctor who manages to make some mythological creatures through surgery & digging up dead bodies and i won't spoil it any further. the second half of the book is a whole bunch of medical/biology style illustrations of said creatures, their skeletons, their muscles, how certain parts of their bodies would function (for example i believe it goes into explaining the lungs for both mermaids and harpies). i don't think it quite fits thematically with hannibal but i think it's got The Vibe so i put it in there.

there's a book on saint lucy, who is the patron saint of sight. i have it because i was born with my skull being asymmetrical and the doctors immediately told my family it would likely cause problems with my eyes, and so instead of, you know, starting to take me to eye doctors from a young age, they swore me to saint lucy and left it at that. i'm likely going to go blind on my left eye at some point in my life btw lmao thanks st lucy <3 i do like her though. i like her iconography a lot, she's always portrayed as holding a plate with her eyes on it.

there's damien by hermann hesse, which is one of my all time favourite books. it's written in first person and it starts with emil sinclair's childhood, explaining that he sees the world in a very black and white way, and does so very literally because he speaks of the world of light and the world of darkness, which are kind of meant as good and evil. but then something happens to him that starts blurring the clear line he thought was between the two, which sends him into a moral panic until he meets max demian, who starts to make him see that there's more to both sides. the story as he grows up follows his "corruption" into someone who is neither good nor evil. it has a lot of implied homoeroticism, as it was written i think either in the 20s or the late 1800s so it couldn't be explicit but it is very much there and is expressed mostly through demian's mother. there's also a weird cult thing going on and the ending is a bit ??? and honestly i need to read it again because for such a short book SO much happens that i'm having a hard time summarising it accurately.

the only other books i remember being there rn (it's 1am i'm not turning the lights on again) are dracula, because cannibal/vampire count with a big castle, the butchering art, and les fleurs du mal, plus two other books written in french that i haven’t read yet because my french isn't the best, whose titles i don't remember rn, and one in italian that i've found at a used books stall once but i believe it's from a local author and i've never seen it in a bookstore nor online so there's definitely no english translation of it. i still haven't read this one either and i don't even remember what it's about, it might be a poetry book? not quite sure. but yeah these few ones i haven’t read are there like. on trial. if i read them and find them fitting they'll stay otherwise they go to another shelf. i also haven’t read les fleurs du mal nor the butchering art yet, so the same applies to them. i think that's all of them? i plan to put my art history books and regular history books on the shelf above as well next to the medical books to kind of carry the theme over lol.

i would like to maybe someday get some of the books that we've glimpsed from the bookshelves on the show but this is it for now!

anyway. tysm for asking me about it dear anon. you said but a few words yet they meant the world to me <3

Tag Game!!

Tagged by the cutest loveliest @xiaoluclair 🩷

'rule(s)': either or!

hardcover or paperback? ( Used to love a pretty hardcover as a teen but we had character development. It's just so much easier to carry a paperback and the folds and so on just adds more character)

bookstore or library? (Honestly both are fun, i don't live near a good library anymore, miss just sitting and reading in one for hours 😭😭 my mom takes me to bookstores when I am very down and i just sit and stare at them for hours and then buy one)

bookmark or receipt? (I have so many bookmarks because people keep gifting them to me as i am their reader friend™ but always just end up using random shit like rubber bands, reciepts, clothing tags to keep track of the pages)

stand alone or series? (Can't stand series anymore💀if you can't tell a story in one book then u don't have a story, you just have ramblings of a very boring man)

nonfiction or fiction? (I do read alot of nonfiction but it's mostly for knowledge purposes and never all that fun for me. was reading about sugar and its horrors so i could have logical explanations in my head to control my sugar intake and not because i actually care about sugar and its horrors)

thriller or fantasy? (Love both in equal parts and can't seem to find good ones for either these days but that's probably also on me for being all burned out on reading)

under 300 pages or over 300 pages? (While i don't mind longer books, shorter are just less scary and also less of a commitment. Also have alot of choice words about popular authors with too much leeway and not enough editing being done to end up with longer books but that's whole another rant)

children’s or YA? (I am adding middle grade into children's and while i am fine with reading either, definitely more hesitant and sus of YA because it's more often than not just not it but also it's a huge genre and there are some good works and also alot of entertaining shit here and there)

friends to lovers or enemies to lovers? (BOTH? EITHER? idk they both have such different vibes of angst and fluff u can add and it's all delicious. The familiarity and fear in friends to lovers to the vulnerability and perception of the whole in enemies to lovers. Also shoutout to brocedes for truly making me appreciate the beauty of friends to lovers to bitterly divorced, sometimes i lie on my bed thinking having a mental breakdown about Greece and that picture of nico and lewis on the unicycle)

read in bed or read on the couch? (I read on my bed mostly and fall asleep and wake up and continue reading)

read at night or read in the morning? (Now i don't do this on purpose but i always always always end up in my 3am sleep addled hyper brain scrolling, find something that looks interesting and instead of waiting just download and start reading it and stay up till 12pm the next day reading and cry on gc and then sleep the entire day, it's an established pattern since i was a teen and i have accepted it for what it is)

keep pristine or markup? (I am the heathen who used to write with pen right in her novels in college, i give zero shits about keeping shit pristine and honestly find the insistence to do so in online circles very weird 😭)

cracked spine or dog ear? (something about a well loved book with a broken up spine and dog eared pages is so so so lovable but I do try to not crack the spines because idk how to patch shit up and i don't want my faves falling apart on me)

Tagging @skitskatdacat63, @fractalkiss, @geneticcatalyst, @toppingjeffsatur and @danielverstappen and whoever else would like to do this really

#i would start tagging all my mutuals but idk if you all even do tag games 😭#also this was so fun #talking about book habits is always so entertaining #thanks for tagging me xiao 🩷🫂

I feel like I'm living in solitary confinement. Every day, I spend time with no one, except on Wednesday when I have D&D club for two hours.

All my interactions with people feel automated. Thank you have a good day thank you have a good day thank you. No worries, no worries, now worries.

All "I'd check required" and inserting and swiping and carrying groceries back home. The only human to talk to is my mother, but she feels more like a prison guard I ramble to through the narrow slot in my cell door.

Today, I resorted to sitting outside while reading Crow Planet. I went to the store and got unsalted peanuts so that I could feed the crows. None of them ate my peanuts, even when I figured out that they preferred to eat from the grass instead. I can't even befriend a family of crows. At least none of them cawed at me. That's a first step. Imaginary friends for my cell.

There's a player in our party, her name is Y, and she's playing a bard. She is the most pleasant person to interact with and we are friendly. After last week's session, I decided it would be good to buy a druid spell card deck for convenience, and while I was at it, I picked up a bard deco for Y. I also painted her a bard mini, since I had no bards in my collection.

Only am I now realizing how weird this is going to be, today. That I bought and painted these two things for her and her only. I had minis and decks for the rest of the party, but I didn't get them because I wanted to save as much as I could. Everything I picked up was on clearance.

The Last thing I want is to make Y uncomfortable with these gifts, yet at the same time, why should I worry so much if it's just a friendly gesture? She's new and I know that these cards will make spellcasting so much easier. The mini, though. . . That feels more personal. That is art I made.

There are events at the library in the future, but that's the future, and I'm in the horrible *now*. This loneliness is driving me places I don't want to be. I went outside today, watched some crows, donated books to the library; I was a functioning person today, doing things that should make me sleep soundly at night, and yet the realization that I spent time with no one during all of it has me shaking.

Later, I'll be fine. I can fill up my social bar just a little before I run on empty for the following six days. I get let out of solitary every now and then to stand in the sunlight before they cram me back in.

How the fuck did I get here and how do I get out? I don't even have coworkers. Just frogs and a cat and the neighborhood crows and my jailor. And my party, but only once a week for two hours. And we don't even get personal. It's just game time.

My heart won't quiet tonight.

pre-relationship: 2, 4. general: 4, 7. love: 2, 3, 8. domestic life: 4, 10 ! :>

hii jerome!! thank you for sending an ask, i love seeing your ships :]

PRE-RELATIONSHIP:

2 has been answered here.

4. Who felt romantic feelings first?

When we met it was a crush-turned-friendship kind of thing. Like we're shy around one another and find each other cute but then we become friends and the initial attraction kind of ebbs. But then months pass of us getting to know each other and I'm like dang he's kind of perfect actually I wanna kiss him oh no.

So yeah, me, most likely. It would take Spencer a bit longer to recognize those emotions and accept them, but I see us falling for one another at the same pace. It just takes us a while to do anything about it.

GENERAL:

4. Were they each other’s first anything (kiss, relationship, etc.)?

Spencer actually has a lot more experience than me in the romance department, believe it or not. In canon, he literally made out with an actress in a pool in season 1 lol so I definitely wasn't his first kiss. There's not much said about his romantic history pre-show, but I imagine he definitely dated around a little here and there but hadn't had a real long-term relationship before me. And, well, he wasn't my first relationship but he was my first kiss among other things to put it simply.

7. Who takes the lead in social situations?

We're both socially awkward, introverted nerds (he's an INTP, whereas I'm an INFP) so it honestly varies. Our job calls for us to start conversations whether they're uncomfortable or not, but if we're paired up in the field he'll usually take initiative at first but he lets me get a word in as well. But really, we function pretty fine in social situations, we can just be a little weird sometimes in ways others might not understand. We both won't hesitate to step in and stand up for each other if it comes to it, though.

However, I'm definitely the one to (maybe not confidently) go up to a server with him if they got his order wrong. If they got my order wrong, I wouldn't want to be a bother, and he's the same way. So we can overcome our social anxiety if it means doing something for the other, if I'm making any sense.

LOVE:

2. What are their primary love languages?

My personal love languages are gift giving (primarily) and physical touch, I think. I absolutely love buying or (especially) making things for my loved ones if I can't afford to spend money. Honestly if I was rich I'd be buying people stuff all the time, and it makes me so happy when people enjoy the thing I made them. I also love giving and receiving hugs, having my hand held, cuddles and the likes, but I can be touch averse at times depending on the person. Spencer is the same way.

I think Spencer's would be quality time (primarily) and physical touch as well. I've noticed through my binge of CM that he's often inviting his friends out to events and stuff. I believe conversations count as quality time, so he'd really appreciate someone who's willing to listen to him go on for as long as he wants and do the same in turn. And despite being a total germophobe, he loves receiving hugs and loving gestures from people he's close to. He's secretly very touch-starved.

3. Who uses cheesy pick-up lines?

I do on occasion just because I love watching him try not to smile and roll his eyes at me. We'd probably make stupid Doctor Who references at each other ("Are you a weeping angel? 'Cause I could stare at you all day.")

But Spencer goes all out with his, and I could see him being especially corny on anniversaries or romantic holidays. He even flirts in other languages and leaves me to scramble to try and figure out what the heck he just said to me.

8. Who’s better at comforting the other?

I feel like we can both get kind of panicky and awkward when it comes to comforting people who are upset, but when it comes to it all we really need is someone to be there for us and listen if we need to vent or just hold us if we need to cry. So I don't think either of us would be "better" at it, you know? We just know what to do for each other.

DOMESTIC LIFE:

4 & 10 have been answered ^^

#good lord this was a doozy #i hope any of this makes sense #🧠r | pretty boy swag #☕remreid #self ship #selfship #selfship community #ask game💕

Personal rant under the cut because i can't stop thinking about this, and i need opinions before i lose my mind... 🙏

So, I'm about to turn 26 yo. And this year, because I don't want a party or some get-together and just want to spend my birthday on my own for reasons I won't go into. My sweet mother tried to emotionally blackmail me by saying that I wouldn't get any gifts from anyone on my birthday unless I had a party/dinner/something for them. She kept asking even though i had already said no many times. I told her that that was okay. It's completely up to them if they don't want to give me a gift, but when I then told her that if that was going to be the case then I also wouldn't be giving anyone a gift if I were to not show up to their birthday (because... it's a 2-way street, you know? You give what you get and all that) That wasn't acceptable. I had to buy them gifts on every occasion, even when I didn't get anything out of it, which I had always done in the past, because, to me, that's just what you do on someone's birthday. Because it's their birthday. THEIR day. Not yours. So isn't that just what you do? When you're friends and/or family?? I already bought everyone birthday presents this year, btw (even my mother, after she'd tried to gaslight me about the past and told me it was okay for others to cross my boundaries and not listen when I'd already told them no, then rudly uninvited me from her birthday. I still got her a gift)

I'm seriously considering not giving these people Christmas present this year now... even tho i had looked forward to making the presents, seeing as I'm an artist - it's what I've wanted to do for years. I had already come up with everything i was going to make, too. But I'm not going to double spend my money on people who can't do the same for me unless they get something out of it, that being a party. Why is it not enough for me to say i don't want it? What about MY feelings, on MY birthday?

I'm sorry for the rant. It's typically not what i do on here, but this has been swimming around in my head since it happened weeks ago, and as someone who used to be a people pleaser, and someone who literally developed BPD because she focused so much on how everyone else wanted her to be instead of being her true self. I'm honestly not sure if I'm the one who's being unreasonable here? I don't think I am. The one person I asked did also agree with me. But that's just one person's opinion. So... Am I crazy? Because I want to be able to set proper, healthy boundaries while still not becoming too strict or unreasonable/hurt others. There's a fine line between just standing up for yourself and taking it too far when you first get started on healing, and it's sometimes hard to distinguish if I'm one or the other. Regardless...

Thank you. For listening.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ 𝐕𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐍𝐄'𝐒 𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇-𝐔𝐏!*˚ .♡⋆ˊˎ -

𓆩♡𓆪 𝐒𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄! @the-phantom-of-arda

For the Valentine's Date thing Kia Fandom(s): HotD - Daemon Targaryen Tolkien -Any of the Valar/Maiar, Glorfindel, Caranthir* Sexuality: Heterosexual with she/her pronouns Personality: I can be in a group of strangers and talk comfortably for hours on end, but when I'm with those closest to me I will listen to them speak and chime in when needed, when I'm truly comfortable with you I'm quiet. I do not talk about myself unless is to show off something I've accomplished recently, I make acquaintances easily, but I have a small group of true friends, not close to my family either. Hobbies: I design clothes An author A Collector of unique things (can be anything eye-catching) Likes: Quiet places away from people To read Loves Dragons (I adore them tbh) Flowers Day trips Beautiful places Dislikes: I do not drink often, and when I choose to it is only one glass Doesn't like arguments, but can and will stand up for myself

ੈ♡˳ 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐑 𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐒 𝐓𝐎 𝐁𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐕𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐄!

♡ Caranthir is quick to anger so the fact that you're initially quiet is nice for him. He feels like he's always surrounded by people who talk too much about too little and it irritates him. The fact that you're quiet to begin with helps him to not only get used to but to enjoy your company. By the time you are very chatty around him, you've already got on his good side and he's keen to hear what you have to talk about.

♡ He likes when you talk about what you've accomplished too. He's an ambitious ellon and would like to see that trait in others around him and so he really likes that he can see it in you, he wants only the best for you and oh no is he developing a crush on you?

♡ Ok, he's had to reluctantly accept that yes, he has a crush and now he's a mess trying to figure out how to go about this but Valentine's day is coming up and wouldn't that be a perfect opportunity to ask you out on a date?

ੈ♡˳ 𝐌𝐀𝐊𝐄 𝐈𝐓 𝐀 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄?

♡ Caranthir invites you to his place as he's not one to really like parading around his private life in the public sphere. He's also a nervous wreck and doesn't want anyone to see him in this state. He's not the best cook but he's made a series of small dishes for the two of you to sample and he's got a bottle of wine too even if he knows you'll only have a little.

♡ He's big on gift-giving though and he's made a few pieces of jewellery specifically to match some clothes designs that he's seen you working on. He's stumbling over his words as he explains his thinking behind the designs and how they compliment yours and he just can't seem to stop words from pouring out of his mouth and he just really likes you and adores spending time with you like this. And, yeah, that'll be all it takes for him to finally shut his mouth.

♡ Please give him some reassurance that everything's alright or else this scenario is going to keep him awake at night for the next few centuries. He gets pretty frustrated over how flustered you make him and he'll mutter curses about you all while longing to hold you in his arms.

missed the match-up event? try ships instead!

☾ ⋆ ﾟlike my work? why not: ∘ buy me a coffee? ∘ commission me? ∘ join my taglist ∘ consider following/reblogging

23 / 10/ 22

Starting off this page at 3:57 am on a sunday morning definitely gives a little bit of insight into the slightly unhinged lil story I'm living in. Yes I'll be the protagonist and you could follow me to find out what in the ( and i can't stress this enough) absolute fuck I've been upto lately.

Today let's just say I woke up at 3:30 am , had the sudden urge to turn my life around. Then I read a little bit of Murakami's "Norwegian wood" .

I'll show you the lil note I made that I thought would help in totally changing my life. For the better or worse we'll have to wait and watch.

'Here' refers to the city where my college is. It's a Government Medical College in a pretty big city in Kerala, India and I'm right now hopefully a third year student. I say hopefully since I've still not passed a paper from my second year which if I don't pass in one more chance, I might just get expelled. Absolutely no pressure.

The sweatpants and tees are since I've decided to start going to the gym since two of my friends started going and i have seriously got to do something about my weight. I might be super cute but I'm severely underweight, right now running on 32 kg (70.5 lb). Oh I didn't mention, I'm 22 and I'm yay high. Nah I'm super short standing at a majestic height of 4'9. It's a thing I'm really bummed out about since noone takes me seriously because of my tiny appearance. It particularly affects the way patients interact with me but I do have a good way of speaking in a really mature manner which helps compensate for it.

Now about nitc. National Institute of Technology, Calicut.

How is it related to me? Well that's where my ex boyfriend is studying. I'll tell you about our what i thought was really wholesome relationship in the coming days. I don't wanna spoil everything on the first entry. But the current status is that he dumped me three days ago because he felt that we're incompatible. The box I am planning to send includes some gifts I had bought for him since I didn't know what was coming plus two of his college's tshirts that i don't think wearing anymore would be good for my mental health.

On 25th, my second sessional ( internals) exam would be starting and it ends on 28th . On that day we will have to shift out hostel rooms. And currently my roommate situation is a little bit complicated which I'll tell you about in time. So I need new roommates and texted three of my friends at 5am about the pros and cons of living with me and asked whether they would be interested in doing so. Main pros I mentioned was that am a really chill person who won't judge if they play their music aloud and stuff like that. My clothes fit them almost always so just like how we already do, we can continue to share the wardrobe. Also we could sneak in drinks and we'll drink them occasionally when we feel particularly happy. I don't know of many girls who drinks in the hostel and we usually have to sit on the stairs and drink from seven up bottles pretending it's water and it takes half the fun away.

We could also make the room pretty aesthetic which is something I'm rather fond of that i haven't seen many other people care much about. Another advantage is that we could call proxys for each other which also is not something a lot of people are ready to do. Also since we're really close friends we could comfort each other and be there for each other whenever needed. We could study together but that's entirely upto them and if they don't want to do that it's totally okay.

Buying the bean bag chair is part of making the room aesthetic and comfy but that will only work if the room is big enough. So I'll have to decide whether or not to do it after getting the room.

A single room is something I've always wanted but it's hard to get and there are a lot of disadvantages to it and to be honest I'm not sure about it. But since it has been a dream of mine, I thought I'd give it a thought.

Run with Asmo

"Asmo. He's got connections, and power. I think you have my best chance of getting out." MC squeezes his hand and smiles. "Come on prince charming, get me out of here." Asmo picks up MC from the bed and Satan makes a teleportation circle around them.

"This will take you straight to your room," Satan says, taking a second to double check his work. "We'll try to buy you some time by causing a mess around RAD. It's not like Diavolo could get any more peeved, right?" Satan steps back and MC's chest hurts to only wave them goodbye. No, they can't think like that. This won't be the last time they see their friends. Silver mist envelopes them, and in a second they're standing in Asmo's room. He places them gently on the bed and begins to pace the floor.

"Ok Asmo, so what's the plan?" MC wants to start pacing too, but decides to conserve energy.

"Well, plans," Asmo chuckles nervously, giving an apologetic smile to MC who stared back in horror.

"WHAT?" MC gasps, suddenly understanding Asmo's anxiety. "You said you had a plan but it was secret!"

"I did, it's so well hidden I don't even know about it," Asmo wants to laugh again but MC looks ready to pass out. "I'm- no- okay. I do have a plan, but I'll let you make the call. I can imbue you into jewelry and pass you off to one of my followers. A gift from me would be invaluable to them and I know they'd keep you safe- they just wouldn't know you're in the jewelry."

"I could also just pass you around to my friends, have them hide you out here in the Devildom. Like Mammon's plan, they can move you around the Devildom- my reach is so much farther than the school and royals MC. I won't hand you over to just anyone; they adore me more than they fear some tyrant that doesn't even get to know his people outside of the academy." MC sits quietly while Asmo talks, mulling over their options a bit unconvinced. Asmo can sense this and has one more idea.

"Or... I could hand you over to Solomon." Asmo talks slowly, working out the plan on the spot. "He doesn't have the same loyalty to Diavolo that we do; he would protect another human. He's renowned in the human realm and respected in the Devildom, as long as he's with you you'll be safe."

"Where do you want to go?"

"something has been off with them for a while" I honestly have been thinking the same thing lately, They just feel so different to last year. I really don't know what it is exactly either

My friend says the fame got into their heads 😅. I don't know if it's true or not, maybe she's right, idk. I don't want to make such statements when I don't know the reason for their behavior, but I can try to point out some things that I dislike in what they're doing now. I just really don't want to start a drama... it's not any kind of hate, if I really dislike something I just ignore it and move on. That's how I always operate.

There are some fans who will always pay for everything and will always praise everything, but not everyone has a fat wallet and if they want to sell out stadiums in the future, they can't just cater to a small group of people. The whole introduction of VIPs was basically like "don't like it, don't buy it, some people want to buy, which means there's no problem" and then the whole focus was on people, who paid for that thing (which was what, 30 people per concert? and some of them were huge, like a few thousand crowd of people).

Their VIP offer was also really poor, it was basically paying for the opportunity to give them gifts (I had no VIP and I came early, so I had first row anyway, just not in the center, they also didn't have a photographer and took photos with people's phones, so they were complaints they met people after concerts in some countries for free... if they offered something extra in the VIP package it wouldn't be an issue). My friend showed me a different band's VIP offer with a price that's similar (I don't remember how much in eur it was for BC, but in PLN it was a similar price to the one in dollars here):

Come on, pizza party? BC you really need to try harder... and set up a box for gifts at your merch stand for people, who didn't buy a VIP ticket. Unless you don't want more gifts, then just say you have too much stuff.

Other than that, I felt like they mainly paid attention to the first row at the center during the concert, which was VIP people (maybe it's just my impression, if someone else who was in Poland disagrees, just say so). There are more fans than just 30 people in the crowd, seriously. Joel's explanations of this thing on social media totally didn't make sense and I hate the idea of paying to just meet them. I don't think anyone is important enough to pay for breathing the same air as them, just at a smaller distance than during the concert. If they want to earn this much money, they really need to come up with a better offer (and before someone says it's not much money... I'm Polish, to us it was more expensive than to people in other countries, because they set the same price everywhere... they really should consider that the market in Central [minus Germany] and Eastern Europe is different). Just because someone is willing to pay this much money, it doesn't make it a good deal and those people might also go away if they don't get something better next time.

Following this tour on social media also wasn't as much fun as before, exactly because I saw only the VIP thing everywhere. Either the band, or people were sharing it all the time. They even had to include it in their documentary. So I tried my best to avoid going into the tag, it made me upset... Maybe it was fun for those, who bought VIPs, but I've been saying it from the beginning I wasn't going to get one and I didn't, because I always mean what I say.

Another thing is their concerts. Everyone loved their craziness, but now they play so many concerts that most of them are the same, because they're unable come up with anything unique that often. I was really lucky to see Balboa with Samy on stage and sex doll with fruits before the LS concert, usually when I watched people's live videos it was all the same stuff... I understand why they're doing it, but maybe quantity is not the way to go 😅. Look at MCR, how everyone talks about them because of Gerard's new outfits all the time. I don't even listen to them and it got me interested. We also had so much fun spotting Aleksi wear something different all the time in the summer! But they do so many concerts that there's no more space for such small, exciting surprises. They toned down their craziness, too... It was fun to see them live (they put effort in it, so I got what I paid for, no complaints here), but checking updates from their other concerts just doesn't excite me as much as it used to 🤷‍♀️. I think other people feel the same, because even my live videos didn't get much attention (and come on, I even had Aleksi wiping his sweaty hand on his ass, one year ago it would make the fandom nuts 😂)

tl;dr: they need a better VIP deal, need to stop focusing so much on the VIP thing in general, and need crazy shit like Sharks back

💘, 💬, 👍, 🌼 for Mana :D

time to put my muses on blast ( ft. sex+romance headcanons meme w/ @jeoseungsaja )

💘 What are the ways my muse says ‘I love you’ without actually saying it?

she's not someone who normally likes hanging around people so whether it's platonic or romantic, if she's voluntarily spending time with you, that's one way for her to say 'i love you'....but also she tends to be shy about admitting that so it's more like she'll make up some kind of excuse/reason she and the person of her affections sjdfklsjd be sure to read between the lines in those cases :D

but also since she's super observant, especially of the ones she cares about most, i feel like it really will vary from person to person bc she prefers to be unobtrusive as possible with her affections...so for example, with calum, she knows he's not necessarily the best at standing up for himself and while she knows he's trying to get better at that, when she knows he's overwhelmed and can't get back into balance, that's when she'll step in bc he needs someone in those cases to be the asshole 🥲 but i hope that makes sense?? bc if it's someone NOT like calum, she'll observe and then figure what would be most comforting and helpful to them emotionally...either that or she'll buy little gifts of their favorite foods/sleep.

💬 When did my muse go on their first date?

in her main verse, very recently! she went to the beach with calum- she made him take her there because a. she had never been to the beach before and b. his family was having a reunion and she knew he didn't want to be there....so she was giving him an excuse to skip 🥲

👍 Does my muse prefer to be asked on a date, or would they rather do the asking?

i feel like she's more likely to take the initiative...although I can't see her using those words ( 'go on a date with me' )....she'd probably phrase it more like 'want to go somewhere with me? okay. dress nice, see you there.' a real tsundere, truly 🥲

🌼 Would my muse prefer a big wedding or a small wedding?

in her canon timeline, her and calum's wedding was very small, very private, mostly because a. mana doesn't have a lot of friends in her life and her only family she's close to is her grandmother so all the people she wanted there could be counted on two hands....and b. calum was estranged from his adoptive family by then and even tho he does have a lot of acquiantances, there are only a few who he actually considers like close friends

#jeoseungsaja #( headcanons: mana. )#can't help loving others ( headcanons. )#ALEX THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE #🥺🥺 i hope these made sense....esp the first one #since her version of being affectionate is knowing her loved ones' habits to a t and adjusting accordly to make their lives easier #in some way #anyways!! thanks again for sending in~#pls have a wonderful day alex <3 #under the same sky ( queue. )

Momo Yaoyorozu Headcanons!

So, here's my take on Momo as a character, same as Ibara's post! These are going to be long because I adore the potential of these characters I'll share my Headcanons for. Some of these change some aspects of the characters but still feel in line with them.

Family Headcanons.

Momo is the only child of the CEO of the Yaoyorozu Support Company, Akira Yaoyorozu. Akira is a very serious man who absolutely adores his wife and daughter and would do anything for them if it was within his power. He's a passionate yet pragmatic man who planned out everything Momo would do and if she didn't go by plan well, he changed them to suit any situation.

Her father's goofy stratagems are sort of played for laughs, while her mother, Haruka, finds her husband's antics tiring. Momo appreciates her father's attempts at preparing her for everything but gently lets her father down easy if they don't go to plan.

Haruka is a very serious career woman who absolutely despises relaxing outside of vacations, keeping her daughter's mind busy and her plans full. Because she had to claw her way to the top.

She wants her daughter to be the best she can be, no matter what. Although she's not up to Endeavor's level of obsessive, she's a little too serious about Momo being the best.

Also, both of her parents LOATHE the concept of Quirk Marriages because their marriage was one. One thing is clear, despite their moments of strictness, Akira and Haruka love Momo and want the best for her.

Personality Headcanons.

Momo is somewhat sheltered but not to the level of Ibara. She's just a little eensy bit unaware of how the lower classes live. Enough to come across as goodnaturedly misunderstanding some things. But she adapts quickly, might be a little too apologetic.

She insists on buying her friends anything they want if they're all out with her on the town. That's one of her love languages too. She may go overboard but it's alright.

She knows how to play the piano, flute, and violin. Even some stranger instruments like the Barcode Scanner and INDUSTRIAL FAN.

She's very self conscious and kind of a nervous girl, but then she's also one of the most passionate and intelligent girls around. Momo is a real sucker for romance movies.

She's a poet, an artist, a musician, and sometimes a Kendo practicioner. It helps with her aggression and sometimes she just sits and draws or plays the piano she had moved into the Heights Alliance common area so everyone can enjoy the music.

With her being more open about her music, Jiro sometimes joins her. Adding guitar accompaniment.

Momo finds her hero costume the hardest to accept. A lot of it isn't practical at all and she can't stand anyone ogling her. Yet Midnight was a big help in making sure Momo was comfortable with it.

By advocating for a costume that covered more but still made use of her quirk, by exposing different parts that weren't as uncomfortable to expose as well as adding some much needed protection.

She absol-freaking-lutely knows how to break people in seven different ways and can devise hundreds more with her quirk.

In short: Don't fuck with Momo Yaoyorozu, she will probably destroy you.

Romance Headcanons!

Whoever her partner is, they lucked out. They hit the jackpot. Momo is so sweet and sincere, and not very shy about how she feels about her partner much at all.

Her love languages are gift giving and words of affirmation. She will lavish her partner with gifts and praise because she wants them to know that no matter what she'll love them, scars warts and blemishes all.

Although she might be a little too passionate. Might be a little too much sometimes but that's because she's never had someone like her partner.

She's so happy.

If she ever gets in a fight with her partner she's the first to apologize and she might be hurt for a while after if her partner refuses to budge on what they're fighting over.

When it comes to PDA, there's hands to be held and cheeks to be kissed. She WILL whisk her partner into a happy, whirling dance that might end with them on the floor with her laughing themselves silly.

It takes some convincing for her to be vulnerable and open up about her issues, having to be Miss Perfect all the time. But with her partner? She can be whoever she wants to be.

She most likely met her partner before UA, before the whole being on TV thing and before the costume. Before she was Creati.
