would you tell me about your wips 👀 if i looked at you like this 👀 until you told me 👀

OKAY!! finally had time and energy to do this i'm sorry 😭

okay so. most of these are like. darna/darlentina/reginarda and a few odd ones (surprisingly, almost all this is filipino. huh.) but anyway.

let's get the darna/darlentina/reginarda wips out first!!

5+1 things darlentina or five times narda saves regina and one time she doesn't.

this is my baby. the very first fic i've written for this fandom and it's very very special to me lsdkjfsld. i add to it little little by little every once in a while but i dont think it's nowhere near finished (sorry!!) it's basically a rewrite of the whole show so, you know, it's going to be a big one lmfaooo. i'm going to take what i want from canon and throw the rest in the trash. still deciding if i want it chapter by chapter or just one big oneshot thing. hm.

fake dating au

yeah fake dating. although not in the way you'd expect. regina thinks narda and darna are dating. so to keep regina off her back and from finding out she's both, narda thought it'd be a great idea to throw off regina by letting her think she's dating the superhero. this was funnier in my head. this one's a very recent wip, had the thought while in the middle of class one day lmfao

woman of her dreams (yeah no im not good with this)

okay so. basically regina keeps dreaming about this girl since like. she was a child. up until adulthood she keeps dreaming about her. she never has a name, only vague flashes of her facial features, her hands, her smile etc. semi-canon. narda is still half alien, but they dont meet the same. until they do meet and regina's so shocked she falls off the balcony.

gala smut

basically what the title says lkdjflfdfg. i remember working on this when the first few weeks the show was airing and like i was running on pure emotion that time. what a time indeed. well anyway. they fuck in a bathroom. so yea.

a scene rewrite

there was just this really really annoying scene in the show that i just. had to fix ya know? like. girl. she would not say that. so yeah.

friends with benefits au

was once again driven by pure emotion with this. bc like. that would be so so good. it'd be so angsty and like. i haven't really read anything like it in the fandom before so!!

regina almost dies

yeah so if you haven't seen the show regina dies (but only briefly) and like. i wanted to fix that because of how stupid they set it up like. GIRL. she was too far from that tree to pierce her oh my god???

ALRIGHT. i think i'm done with the reginarda wips. on to some other ones i have :D

i'm just going to list some of them off since i don't really remember where i wanted them to go lmfao.

chapter two of my lilanette fwb

lilanette childhood friends au

lilanette secretly friends au

a barbie oneshot

needifer x mean girls au

okay. with this one, my sister and i suddenly had a brain fart thinking what if jennifer survived and needy moved to chicago or something and attended northshore. fucking insane i know. it was supposed to be a collab thing but my sister didn't really want to anymore so i'm mostly the one working on it.

rookie exes au

okay so. rookie is a filipino movie about the new kid who doesn't play volleyball (she only plays basketball), joins the volleyball team, and falls in love with the team captain. the captain dislikes her at first but, you know, her swagless looks and cringe fail autistic personality eventually captivates her. you know, basic shit.

it's a very... feel good movie i would say. it didn't really resonate with me as much as i was hoping it would but, it's a good watch, i think.

i wanted to imagine them not too far into the future but they're not together. (though, the movie leaves us with an ambiguous ending regarding their relationship, first off) i just love exes aus. ough. oh yeah it's sapphic.

this is entirely too long omfg. i doubt it'll be an interest to anyone but maybe a couple of people but!!! yeah i kind of wanted to share this too. kinda.

I read somewhere on your blog about the age of the characters in MDZS. It made their behavior clearer to me. While it was believable that a 15-year-old would act the way LWJ & WWX do, it made more sense when I understood that biologically and mentally they are 13. It also makes it funnier that they're getting drunk, gambling, and reading porn at the lectures. Romance and sexual awakening are very new to them. So navigating these very new feelings and hormones must have been a pain and quite overwhelming. It also makes it even more saddening to realize that the older generation really sent babies to war. It makes WWX's story even more horrific. Cptsd and PTSD can be far-reaching into our psyche and manifest in ways that seem innocuous but are harmful. It has me thinking about all I learned in my early childhood psychology classes. Also, if I had a prompt. Do you have any suggestions on where I can share it?

Yeah! To clarify, in English counting they’d likely be 14, but it really does fit that they are still quite young and fumbling with feelings way too big for them. They are socially fifteen and thus have reached a certain level of adulthood in their society, but that doesn’t really make them any older than we’d think of teenagers now.

And it is a terrible tragedy that so much of that was taken away from them by war and pain and all the adults in their lives either dying, failing them or both. I think where it’s really clearest on how it’s impacted Wangxian is the way they treat the juniors - who are the same age they were when they first met - and give them the guidance and support they so clearly lacked in their youth. It is incredibly sweet that Wangxian choose to take the path of being there for the juniors, but sad that they never had anyone there for them in those times. Definitely of all the mental troubles that can be read into MDZS characters, ptsd is probably the most prevalent and intended one across their entire generation.

Hmm, I’m not sure! I know some of my friends take prompts on occasion, possibly some of my followers as well. Hopefully someone who’s open to a prompt will be happy to chat with you about it!

#asks #mdzs #wei wuxian #the great tragedy of the jianghu #I may be upset with a lot of them for their choices #but I won’t deny that going into a war is an incredibly painful process for all of them #and none of them even got a choice in the matter

What are your top five (romantic) ships and why? 🤍

Oh man, I've been around the fandom traps for so long, this is the sort of question that feels like I have a million answers to. I have so many formative ships I could list that probably make my current ships make more sense, but for the sake of today, let's go with some Right Now ships? And sure, they're all over the place too, haha, but okay, let's go:

5. Allison x Ray, The Umbrella Academy

I know Allison lost a lot of fans with s3, but she didn't lose me!!! I do think the show is in a sticky spot of not really knowing what do with her, but I think Emmy Raver-Lampman is a much warmer and more interesting actress than she gets credit for, and that Allison is a character with so much simmering beneath the surface, which I could talk about all day, but is not the point of this post, haha.

Allison and Ray are really different characters, and the thing I love most about them (outside of Emmy and Yusuf's wonderful chemistry) is that they have these different experiences of trauma, but also these different understandings of power and what it is to fight. Ray chose to fight for his and his community's civil rights, while Allison had the fight forced upon her by an abusive adoptive father, and her relationship with violence, with her own strength and power, with herself is forever tarnished as a result.

I don't think the show has always written them well, but I think Emmy and Yusuf have always played them perfectly, and they play these moments where they chafe against moments they sink into each other so well that it makes me go insane.

4. Joey x Pacey, Dawson's Creek

Look, the reality is Joey and Pacey will never not be an OTP for me. They are the enemies to friends to lovers ship, and anyone who says otherwise is wrong!! The snark, the slow building trust, the empathy, the grace, the personal insecurities crippling the relationship, the way they just !! Fidnd their way back to each other!! Sorry, but they are the teen show ship of all time.

3. Shauna x Taissa, Yellowjackets

Probably a controversial opinion given the current season is for some reason refusing to have Tawny and Melanie's insane chemistry on screen (I can only assume it was too powerful), but I love them. I've always had a really big soft spot for what I tend to call the 'collateral damage' characters, and especially those collateral damage characters falling into bed together.

Neither of them want to be the main character of this particular story, but they both circle the roles and only find each other, and I just really, really love that. Their intimacy, their bond, their messy, fucked up dynamic, their chemistry, which I've already said, but will say again, haha. I just love them, and I want them to have an offputtingly intense and sexual bond forever.

2. Kendall x Stewy, Succession

LOOK, it's just the childhood friendship turned fractured adulthood relationship stoked by the trauma you both knew about. It's the unwanted but ever present intimacy, it's the desperately needed fire in a cold and barren life, it's the trust that, despite every betrayal and misdeed, never really wavers. I can't cope, I literally love them so much it makes me insane.

Beth x Rio, Good Girls

I've talked about them ad nauseum on this blog, haha, and all I have left to say is that they are, unfortunately, still It for me.

Ask me for my Top Fives

#thank you!#allison x ray #joey x pacey #shauna x taissa #kendall x stewy #beth x rio #for the tldr crowd haha #top five ask game #welcome to my ama

for your fandom ask game, Wings of Fire?

The first character I first fell in love with: I think that would probably be Glory! I used to really like her for being one of the "good" queens, although I now realize she made plenty of the same bad mistakes as the others. Imo, Ruby and maybe Moorhen are the only good queens on Pyrrhia right now, and I like it that way. I just wish the others' flaws were showcased a little more.

The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: I would say Peacemaker! I hate his canonical portrayal, as everyone kind of just ignored the numerous effects that making him from an evil dictator could have on him, even if they never told him. But now I enjoy seeing all the different directions that fanon can take him! I've seen surprisingly varied ways in which the fanbase connects him to Darkstalker.

The character everyone else loves that I don’t: I'd say Peril. While I agree that she's a well-written character and I don't hate her, I'm pretty much ambivalent on her mainly because I just don't really feel like I "clicked" with her personality. I will still say that victim-blaming Peril is very bad. Peril is not at fault for being abused; it is Scarlet's fault that she abused Peril.

The character I love that everyone else hates: Honestly, I'm not sure. I can name plenty of popular characters I hate, but I don't think there's any actively hated characters I love. I guess I'm too contrary for that. /hj

The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Haha, probably Glory again. I used to think she was a really cool queen, but after I kind of realizing that she just swooped in to save and rule kingdom she knew nothing about, I became more neutral on her. It feels like the books don't really mention the flaws in her plans, not to mention botch her arc by making her royal.

The character I would totally smooch (adding the modifier on the forehead platonically and tell them everything will be alright): I had to modify this question because I can't imagine wanting to kiss anyone in Wings of Fire. 😅 I'd probably want to comfort Fathom, as I feel really sorry for him after the Summer Palace attack. He spent his childhood terrified of what he would do with everyone hating him for something he couldn't control, after he saved dragons from two separate evil animi before adulthood. He had to go through two incredibly hard betrayals, yet he always stuck strong to his morals to a fault.

The character I’d want to be like: I can't say there's many characters that I aspire to be, considering that a lot of them are very traumatized and I would not want that trauma in my life. But, if I had to choose one, probably Sunny. I find her determination to prove herself while sticking firmly by her morals to be very admirable!

The character I’d slap: Argh, there's too many I want to slap to pick just one (/hj)! One of the more well-liked characters that I'd want to slap is Foeslayer. She literally leaves her kids home alone for days at a time with their dad who's threatened to KILL them! That's not to mention how she plays into Arctic's favoritism game by favoring her more NightWing child, like her children are pawns in a game.

A pairing that I love: I like the idea of Moonwatcher with both Turtle and Kinkajou (w/o Turtlejou obviously because the love spell sucks), once Kinkajou has matured a bit, since she can be kind of insensitive and short-sighted at times. I honestly like both the dynamics of "opposites attract but they're already friends and their differences play well into each other" and "they're both going through similar shit which helps them know how to support each other better." I'm know it's kind of a rare pair, but I think it'd work out better than any of the love triangle ships or Turtlejou.

A pairing that I despise: I definitely don't like Glorybringer. Even besides the age issue, Deathbringer continues making advances on Glory, even though she clearly expresses that she doesn't like it. It's not "tsundere," it's creepy, whether or not she had a crush on him.

Full Name: Buddy August Wells.

Nicknames: B, Bud, The BAWS (that one's self-given and he's the only one who thinks it's funny).

Pronouns and Gender: He/Him, Cis Male.

Birthday: August 2nd, 1996.

Birth place: Seattle, Washington.

How long have they been in town?: His whole life.

Sexuality: Bisexual.

Housing: Swindelbrook Apartments.

Occupation: Dog-walker / stripper.

Family: 3 older sisters, 1 older brother.

triggers for bio: cancer tw, death tw, emotional neglect tw

QUICK OVERVIEW:

Like most newborns, Buddy came into the world nameless. However, that namelessness stretched on for days and weeks after he was brought home from the hospital. The last born (and least wanted, if you asked him) of five, he was another pull on his already stretched-too-thin parents.

He was just Buddy while his mom and dad cycled through and trialed a variety of names, some lasting hours, the longest being 2 days (Matthew). When they couldn't settle on one, Buddy just stuck.

The lack of effort directed to something as important as his name was something Buddy felt his whole life. His oldest sibling had already moved on to starting her own life by the time he came along, and his parents hadn't mastered how to make their passion for changing the problems around them work in tandem with raising their children. Feeling adrift became the norm for him.

Despite feeling somewhat disconnected from the family unit around him, Buddy found it easy to form his own connections outside of the home -- he slotted in easily in most social circles in school, which continued into his teens and adulthood.

Always cared a lot about being a good friend, even when he wasn't always a good person.

Dated around in high school and his early twenties, the whole concept of settling down freaks him out some so he tends to cut ties before things get too far.

Has had 2 serious relationships in his life, one of which ended just over a year ago.

Skipped going to college despite having offers, and instead found himself in an entry level job at twenty-two in Seattle Bank.

Intended to make something of a career out of it and stuck it out, until he ended up getting fired a year and a half ago for a series of unapproved absences.

Those absences were a direct consequence of his father's illness. When August Wells was diagnosed with cancer, the only people he told were his wife and his youngest son, making the pair of them promise to not tell anyone else in the family.

The responsibility was one he didn't know how to shoulder, though he tried his best. He never missed taking him to an appointment or to treatment, and even in his final days he still couldn't bring himself to pick up the phone and ask his siblings for help.

Took his father's death incredibly hard. That and his recent unemployment sent his life freefalling.

Tried out a number of different minimum wage jobs, until he found dogwalking was the only schedule he could keep to due to it being one he made himself.

Stripping, on the other hand, fell into his lap -- ba dum tsh -- thanks to a combination of too much time at the gym to clear his head and a lack of inhibitions. Does some work at a strip club called The Doghouse, but mostly makes his money on hired events like bachelorette parties and birthdays.

PERSONALITY.

+ sociable, funny, loyal.

- insular, apathetic, distant.

FUN ADJACENT FACTS.

Calls the dogs that he walks Buddy's buddies. Has an instagram page for it that's just snaps he takes when he has them out. It's moderately popular due to how cute the dogs are.

Volunteers helping look after guide dogs in training. He thinks they're dope, and it's one of the few consistencies in his life currently.

Will not answer to the name Magic Mike.

Buddy walking dogs is just the energy of this pic.

CURRENT CONNECTIONS.

younger brother of @delilahcarreno

former brother-in-law of @rafacarreno

uncle of @sadiecarreno

former childhood best friend of / one time hookup / it's all a fucking mess of @murphyaltman

tinder ghostee of @samiduwhan

close friend of / dog walker of / big question mark who's very fond of making out with @estestrauss

former high school hook-up / close friend of @thaddtilly

doghouse donation dumbass of / casual fwb of @zerolawrence

SPECIFIC WANTED CONNECTIONS.

A childhood best friend!! Gimme that lifelong ride or die. Can be plotted in depth.

His 2 exes that were serious. Can also be plotted in depth, very much open to one or both ended badly. All the vibes!

People he's stripped for. Make it rain fr.

People who's dogs he walks. Give Buddy his buddies. 🐶

Someone he was close to and then cold cut out after his dad's death. Hella potential for angst. Maybe a little Banshees of Inisherin inspired given they wouldn't have known why he turned on them so suddenly.

Open to him having a roommate if your muse is based in Swindelbrook also!

Someone (or someones?) who's relationship he was part of ruining. Buddy doesn't care much about the relationship status of folks he goes home with. He's just a lil messy like that.

His older brother and his other 2 older sisters. I'm not above begging.

GENERIC WANTED CONNECTIONS.

connections wise he’s pretty much an open book right now, but some baseline ideas that can be springboarded off are:

friendly.

a best friend / ride or dies / close friends / childhood friends / pseudo-siblings / friends / drunk friends / new friends / former roommate.

romantic

flirtationship / friends with benefits / one time hook ups / tinder matches / unrequited crush (can be either way) / exes from high school / exes from his earlie twenties / exes on good terms.

antagonistic.

enemies / former (best) friends / exes on bad terms / frenemies / rivals / negative influence / significant other of someone that cheated on them with him.

Happy (belated) Noche de Velitas! Your OC (Sol) is so cute and warm!! Is it alright if you share more about your OCs - I'd like to get to know them! (m sorry if this is awkward ngh)

Thank you so much Rux!!! You're too kind!!! 🥺💞

It's not awkward at all, I love to talk about my OCs, and I'm very flattered that you want to know more about them 😭

Sol is my oldest OC that I still actively use! She was originally created in 2010 and has changed a lot since, but I love her very much and she has a special place in my heart.

On the left is one of the first drawings I ever made of her back in 2010, on the right is her most recent(ish) look, drawn in 2019.

(Time is an illusion)

Personality wise...I guess the best to describe her would be "intense," haha. She feels emotions very strongly, tends to be quite impulsive, and has explosive reactions that often get her into trouble. Being incredibly shameless, she'll do and say whatever she feels like doing at any given time...regardless of how appropriate it may be. As such, she tends to carry herself in a very vulgar and blunt manner, sparing no effort on formalities. Of course, that means she comes across as stubborn and uncompromising (and she is). This makes her pretty difficult to deal with.

She likes picking up fights, really.

In spite of that, she's also kindhearted and nurturing at her core. The type of person who will strike conversation with just about anyone and treat them like a lifelong friend within a couple of hours. She likes making others feel welcome and at home because it's something she has lacked herself. A very "Chaotic Good" sort of character.

She's English-Colombian, born to a Colombian mother and an English father, but she spends most of her life in Colombia (moving between San Andrés and Cartagena) and doesn't have any real contact with her father until adulthood. Growing up, she dreams of becoming a pilot and traveling the world. Because of a tricky situation she gets herself in, she has to move abruptly to London with her father during her mid 20s.

When she moves, she only has two contacts in England; one being her father, and the other being the attorney that has been providing legal counsel to her and her mum. Because she's presumptuous beyond repair, one thing leads to another and she ends crashing into her attorney's life and freeloading at his office.

That's where my other two major OCs come in!

Alistair (blond) is Sol's long-suffering attorney, and Evie (white haired) is a childhood acquaintance of his, as well as his current client.

The main story they're in is (unsurprisingly) a mystery that follows Alistair's investigation into the serialised publication of a detective story that seems to be predicting/causing/affecting real life events every time a part is published. It's all completely self-indulgent nonsense that lives in my head, to be honest 😂 But I have a lot of fun with them.

I don't know if anyone's actually interested in hearing about Alistair or Evie or any of my other OCs, but I do have a little masterlist of sorts in case anyone wants to see all of the most active ones I have!

Thank you so much for asking, I really appreciate any opportunity I get to talk about these losers 🥺

- Care of Magical Creatures: O

- Charms: O

- Defense Against the Dark Arts: E

- Divination: E

- Flying: O

- Herbology: E

- History of Magic: O

- Potions: O

- Transfiguration: O

Quidditch: Chaser, team captain from fifth year on

Extra Curriculars:

- Dueling Club

- Assistant for Kettleburn

- Weekly Legilimency lessons from Snape

Favorite Professors:

- Professor Kettleburn: Tessa adores his wacko personality and enthusiasm for creatures. He's encouraged her whenever she feels hopeless and is a surprisingly good listener

- Professor Flitwick: The number of times Tessa has nearly cried in his class is insane. She used to be worried about being too unskilled at magic and her nerves made her fail a spell at first, but Flitwick was gentle and talked her through it until she was one of the best in the class. Her bad nerves left in third year, but he's still more gentle with her

Least Favorite Professors:

- Professor Trelawney: Tessa is good at Divination. She enjoys Divination. What she does not enjoy is Trelawney acting like a freak and driving people out of the class. Tessa learns much more from her textbook than from the professor

- Professor Snape: Yes, he's her head of house, but he's an asshole. He's insulting to her and many others and makes her feel more worthless than she already does. If she didn't have Gracie and Penny to help her learn outside of class, she would have failed his O.W.L. Her Legilimency lessons are the worst part of her week

Relationships

Twin Sister: Gracie Tessa Chiva

- Gracie is only eight and a half minutes older than her, but Tessa sometimes feels like Gracie is years older

- She regrets quitting the vaults because she feels like she and Gracie are different people now

- Tessa still blames herself for Gracie's curse. She can't remember the incident, but her wand was two inches from her hand when she woke up and she had no injuries besides the concussion that she thinks is just from falling, so she believes she failed her sister

- Tessa desperately wants her sister's approval and doesn't realize just how much her sister loves her

- She wishes she could do something to protect Gracie for a change

- They were super close as kids and grew apart in the later school years

- All Tessa wants to do most of the time is latch onto Gracie and never let her go into danger again

Older Brother: Vance Riley Chiva

- This bastard

- Vance always favored Gracie

- Tessa still loved him, but she would sometimes feel excluded

- Vance did in fact leave her a few memories, but they were locked in the same box with Gracie's and when Tessa saw how many more Gracie got, she refused to watch hers

- When Vance is freed in fifth year but leaves again without seeing her first, Tessa shatters the picture of him, her and Gracie. It's repaired the next morning, and stays fixed until the end of sixth year when Gracie shatters it too

- Tessa hates Vance

- When he dies in place of her, she realizes she never hated him. She loved him and just wanted him to love her

Younger Cousin: Aiden Carter Darkling

- Aiden is the son of Rachel Chiva, Jason's sister. Rachel and Aiden's father divorced while he was still young, but it was relatively amicable and he comes around for holidays

- Tessa never payed the kid much attention when they were younger, but after he started Hogwarts she took him under her wing a lot

- Aiden comes to her for advice when he has his first crush, when he's nervous about a test, or simply needs a hug. Tessa gets to be a big sister and she loves it

- She's way closer to Aiden than Gracie is, and Aiden isn't hesitant to tell Tessa that he likes her far better. It makes her feel good

Mother: Clarissa Vanessa Black

- Tessa loves her mother, but she doesn't agree with her on a lot of things

- She tries her hardest to make her mother proud, because she knows she's the only "decent" child Clarissa has left

- She actually suggested a contract marriage in hopes of making her mother happy. She was really confused when Clarissa forcefully shut the idea down, not realizing all that her mother went through in her own past

- When Tessa is in her coma in seventh year, she hears her mother go insane (it's what wakes her up) and realizes just how much Clarissa loves her

- Tessa takes much longer to figure out Clarissa and Margaret than Gracie does

- She keeps better in contact with her mother throughout her adulthood than Gracie

- Family dinners are awkward but hey, they're still family

Father: Jason Harvey Chiva

- Tessa, like Gracie, admired Jason a lot as a child

- She only visited his Auror office a few times, because while she thought it was cool she wasn't interested in it as a career

- Tessa didn't see him murder their family friend and didn't believe it when Jason's partner Thomas came to tell her and Clarissa

- She still can't quite believe it, and she misses him a lot, which is why she carries his watch with her *cough cough daddy issues cough*

- The day Gracie has to kill Jason, Tessa destroys the watch

- He tries to kill Margaret in front of Tessa's young daughter Octavia, and that's when Tessa fully believes that Jason lost his mind

Ex Boyfriend: Barnaby Lee

- They met in first year (obviously, they're in the same house), but Tessa never paid him any attention

- It was only in second year when she and Liz were allowed to start getting early lessons from Kettleburn that she started noticing him

- Barnaby was a character during these early lessons

- He hadn't actually signed up for them, but he heard Liz talk about them and just assumed they were open to anyone

- Kettleburn didn't care obviously, he's a bit unstable anyway

- Barnaby would always carry the heavy stuff and Tessa's raging puberty hormones took one look at the muscles and said "heyyyyyyyyy"

- Then of course she actually started talking to him, and dear fucking god was he dumb. But then she talked to him more and he actually wasn't? He was kinda smart in a weird way? And really really nice?

- She never told him she liked him, and by the end of the year he was starting to slip under Merula's control

- Tessa was the one to try and get him to think for himself in year three. She's also the one who dueled him, and she lost miserably, but she stood back up whenever he knocked her down and he admired that. A few weeks later, he asked her out to Hogsmeade

- Gracie was pissed but Tessa didn't care that much

- They were a super cute couple and all of Slytherin (besides her dorm mates) shipped them so hard

- They ended up growing apart in fourth year and deciding they're better off as friends

Love Interest: River Mund

- As of sixth year, they are not together, though it's pretty obvious they both fancy each other

- River is an exchange student from Ilvermorny who arrives the same day as Alanza. Tessa is made to be their tour guide, and while showing them around she can't help but notice that this (very handsome) new boy seems really stressed out. She assumes it's from being so far from home and tries to be encouraging, but he doesn't say a single word the entire time

- River ends up staying in the Slytherin dorms, and Tessa watches him all the time (just out of curiosity of course). He almost never talks to anyone, and is very jumpy when someone gets too close

- After about a month of this, Tessa decides to sit down at the same table as him while doing homework. He seems almost scared of her, but after a week it becomes normal, and she hears his voice for the first time when he asks her for help on his CoMC essay. Another week, and when River packs up his things to go to the dorms, he leaves her a folded up piece of parchment containing a poem he wrote about her

- Tessa starts noticing how often River sneaks into the Forbidden Forest, and gets curious enough to follow him. This is how she discovers he's a vampire - a rarer subspecies theorized to be stemmed from partial vampire breeding together

- River is horrified and thinks she'll hate him since he hates himself. He wasn't born a vampire. His family illegally paid a vampire to break into the hospital and change him to save him from cancer without any input from him. It's why he wanted to come to Hogwarts, to get away from them

- Tessa is scared, obviously, but she tries her best not to show it because he had just started to open up and she didn't want to lose the progress they had been making. When she tells him she's not scared of him River doesn't look like he believes her, but he's so relieved she's trying that he hugs her

- They very quickly become much closer after that, and Tessa realizes that she might be in too deep when she shoves her wrist in his face for him to drink from when he weakly confesses he hasn't had any blood in two weeks without a second thought

- He buys her the ring during January. He claims it's for being such a good friend, but Tessa hopes it's because he likes her (they're both so oblivious)

- They'll get together in seventh year over Christmas break. They both stay behind at the school, and end up confessing while sitting in front of the fire in the Slytheirn common room

Best Friend: Liz Tuttle

- Tessa and Liz met in first year, the first night in the dorms

- Liz, being her awkward self, asked slightly too loudly if anyone wanted to discuss the Fwooper

- Tessa did indeed want to discuss the Fwooper

- Boom, best friends

- Tessa tries being vegan like Liz but can't take it, and reverts to being vegetarian. She's not exactly good at that either, but she never eats meat in front of Liz (at home is fair game)

- She and Liz spend a lot of their free time outside, sneaking into the forest even

- On an assignment from Kettleburn, they accidentally discover the Room of Requirement and now spend free time during bad weather in there

- Liz constantly reassures her that she's not a bad sister for stepping back from the vaults

Rival: Skye Parkin

- They may have been teammates, but Tessa and Skye HATED each other. It really threw off the team dynamics for a while

- Tessa almost quit because Skye made practices miserable for her, and this is when she and Erika ended up friends. Erika convinced her to stay on the team and make Quidditch miserable for Skye instead, and even helped train her

- Orion picking Tessa as his successor and not Skye (who was a year older and more experienced) made Skye so mad she broke her broom and quit. Tessa couldn't help being happy about that. Skye brings out her inner pettiness

Enemy: Vance Riley Chiva

- Tessa is just so sure he's lost all humanity

- She's mad at him for getting them into this mess in the first place

- She swears the next time she sees him, she's going to smack him

- She doesn't get the chance, nor does she get to say anything at all

Dormmates:

- Gracie Chiva

- Liz Tuttle

- Rowan Khanna: they're friends, but very casually, as Rowan is Gracie's best friend

- Merula Snyde: they're not friends, nor will they ever be, but they try very hard not to argue for Gracie's sake

- Ismelda Murk: they too are not friends, but they study History of Magic together because they have similar studying styles and both find the subject interesting

- Colette Belrose: see below

Pets:

- Ruby, the family Crup

- Clara, Vance's toad (she's more Gracie's pet)

- Elaura, a shared owl

- Lemmy, a moke

- various creatures in the reserve that Tessa and Liz coparent

Closest Canon Friends

- Chiara Lobosca: the werewolf quest? Tessa did that. She adores Chiara's kindness and resilience, and frequently uses her Animagus to accompany her on full moons

- Diego Caplan: he helps train Tessa's magical strength. He was totally into her at first, but he calmed down and now they hang out a lot in and out of the Dueling Club

- Erika Rath: Training buddies with a healthy Quidditch rivalry. Tessa has even gotten Erika to come over to her house so they could hang out over the summer

Closest Noncanon Friends

- Gracie Chiva (Jacob's sibling canonically has no other siblings)

- Rosalie Sonnenschein: A German model one year older than her who attends Durmstrang. A first generation part Veela with a very strong natural allure that has men (and women) swooning

- Kyle Orchan: the Squib son of one of the shopkeepers at the clothing store Tessa frequents. He's the best listener Tessa has ever met and loves hearing about her magical adventures. He does sometimes get very sad hearing about this world he'll never be a part of, but he's too nice to ever mention it

- Colette Belrose (@gcldensnitch): Tessa met Colette their first night in the Slytherin dorms. Granted, Tessa spent most of that night talking to Liz, but she went to bed relatively early so Tessa struck up a conversation with Colette. They're super similar and plan to go on a tour of Europe one day. Colette helps Tessa step back and remember to breathe, and she loves her for it

(Storyline has to be in a different post because of tumblr's dumb text limit)

Future

Marriage and Children: Tessa and River get married at the age of twenty one, and almost immediately Tessa gets pregnant with her oldest daughter, Octavia. Her body reacts very negatively and she almost dies while giving birth, so she and River agree to not have any more children. Six years later, Tessa accidentally gets pregnant with twins, Meredith and Alexander. It's a terrifying experience, but all three of them live and the twins are healthy

Career: At the age of twenty two, Tessa is recruited for the Montrose Magpies after one of their scouts watches her casual group's practice. She takes a short break years later to have the twins, and they welcome her back when she joins back up. Her replacement was shit. Tessa gets better at International Apparation so that she and River can spend time in America, England, and Germany without interrupting their work schedules. After she eventually resigns from the team, she uses her "fame" to bring more attention to the petitions for creature rights

The Second Wizarding War:

- Tessa isn't in the country for the most part when the war starts up, though she stops bringing the kids when visiting her mother after it starts getting bad

- After Bill's attack she and River temporarily stay in England for their friends, having her kids stay with Merula and her and Gracie's kids

- She doesn't fight in the Battle of Hogwarts. She's too scared for both herself and Gracie, as if Tessa went to fight Gracie would follow

- Tessa finally discovers all of what happened when Gracie joined R, and how much she truly was one of them for a little while when Olivia Green suddenly enters the picture. That takes her a while to get over, but she's able to

Old Age and Death: Tessa dies at the age of 120 of natural causes, after Gracie, River, Liz, and basically all of her friends. When she gets too lonely, her soul gives up

Personality

- ambivert

- horribly insecure, not so much about her looks but her strength, both magical and physical

- a wee bit of a masochist, constantly pushes herself too hard

- has a good memory

- is good at strategy

- very very kind, even sometimes when someone doesn't deserve it

Misc Information

- Tessa is bilingual, fluent in both English and German

- From all her practicing, Tessa is an amazing cook/baker - River's drinking buddies absolutely love her for it

- She can sing beautifully, and can play simple songs on the piano

- Tessa's depression never quite goes away, but it never gets very bad

- She has pretty bad misophonia, which developed around age nine and got worse with the anxiety and depression

- She ends up with a doll collection that River is terrified of, so much so that she has to put charms around each one so he can't see them unless he focuses

- Tessa is a massive pasta hound

- She hates any drink that fizzes. It's very inconvenient considering she frequently attends parties with things like sparkling water and champagne

- Tessa likes pineapple pizza

- Her favorite color is green

- She's left handed like her siblings and her mother

- She loves thunderstorms

- Her favorite season is winter

- She loves going stargazing

- She has a weird obsession with water. If she's upset, the best thing to do is draw her a bath, and sometimes she'll fill a bowl and stick her hand in it while studying or reading

- She sweats a lot, both from being active and from unlucky genetics (hence why she smells like strong deodorant)

- Tessa doesn't exactly believe in aliens, but she's pretty sure we're not alone in the universe

Hi Pixies 🧚🏻‍♀️ This time it's all about a drama review... FIGHT FOR MY WAY 😎

This is one of the recent dramas that I've watched which I really enjoyed and I wanna share it with you guys. Before we push through the review, let me just discuss some information about this drama.

Fight For My Way is a Korean drama that has been aired this 2017. The drama is about two childhood friends, who are facing different struggles in life and aiming for success in the career they want but isn't qualified enough for it. Ko Dong Man is a former taekwondo player during his highschool days, but is now working as a contract employee. Choi Ae Ra wants to be an announcer but she gave up on her dream and is now working at the information desk of a department store. Both of them are still living near each other and is still maintaining a childish treatment to the both of them upon reaching adulthood.

Before I give my reviews about this drama, I'll just give the plot of the story. YOU MUST READ THIS PIXIES, IT WILL ALL BE WORTH IT.

Ae Ra and Dong Man are childhood bestfriends and is very close to each other until they grew up. During their highschool days Dong Man is a famous and a very great taekwondo player, while Ae Ra is a typical highschool girl student who aims to be an announcer someday. So fast forward to their present lives, Ae Ra is living in a apartment together with Seol Hee which is located infront of Dong Man's apartment together with Joo-Man. The four of them are bestfriends and Seol Hee is in a relationship with Joo-Man for six years already.

Dong Man, who quitted the taekwondo industry due to a very unforgettable moment during his fight with the famous Kim Tak Su which became a big fuss in the news. Dong Man is a well known taekwondo player because of his skills. But he was set up by Tak Su before their fight to let Tak Su win in exchange of money for her sister's operation who can't walk and for his father whose business is going down. But, Tak Su made it appear in the news that Dong Man was the one who asked and begged for money. During the present time, Dong Man still has contacts with his coach before. After several years of not having any taekwondo experience, Dong Man has totally forgotten everything and loses his skills and strength. His coach wants him to go back and became a taekwondo player again but he refuses. After several refuses, he suddenly agreed but he wants to be in the MMA field and aim for a UFC title.

On the other hand, Choi Ae Ra is working in the information desk in the department store. She wants to apply as a announcer but she always fail due to her age and some other reasons. She is quite old for the specific age that all the company wants. She's slowly losing hope but still tried one last time to apply in a famous broadcasting company but failed again due to Park Hye Ran who is a famous anchor in the broadcasting company she's applying to. Hye Ran is the ex girlfriend of Dong Man that she really hates, since Hye Ran broke up with Dong Man and married another man. But lately Hye Ran announced that they're already divorced and now wants to get back together with Dong Man.

Several months have passed that Dong Man trained for his MMA debut. And Ae Ra who has been a number one supporter of Dong Man since his taekwondo days don't really want him to join and is very scared whenever he has fights. Few months have passed that the both of them slowly grew feelings for one another. They didn't even imagine that both of them will end up together and happily inlove. Then, a new landlord of their apartment came which is very strict whenever she sees Dong Man and Ae Ra together. She had her eyes on the both of them. Later did they know, that it was Ae Ra's mother. Ae Ra can't remember because she was very young when her mother left them for some reasons and now wants to reconcile with her again.

Both of them worked hard for their dreams and the career they really want. Luckily, Ae Ra applied to be an MMA Ring Announcer and was given the job. She is the first girl MMA Ring Announcer and will be the ring announcer for the upcoming fight of Dong Man and Tak Su. Dong Man prepared and trained very much and gained back his strength. Fast forward to the day of their fight, Ae Ra couldn't even watch and is very scared of what might happen to her boyfriend, Dong Man. But after such a great fight, Dong Man won over Tak Su and became the talk of the town.

However, few days after their match, Dong Man became temporarily deaf due to some severe ground game during their fight. Ae Ra stayed by his side and after several days, Dong Man's ear is already in good condition.

After all those hardships that Ae Ra and Dong Man faced, in the end the both of them succeeded in their own career path. The story ended very happily which made the viewers really happy on Dong Man and Ae Ra's life and their love story.

BACK TO MY REVIEW.

First of all, let us talk about the plot of the story. It is a story that is relatable and gives a great message and lesson to everyone. It is something that could serve as an inspiration to anyone. Then the actors of the drama.. Personally, I really do believe that the actors did a GREAT job! They really portrayed and gived justice to their characters. Plus, the actors of this drama already gained so many awards in the Korean Industry. The cinematography of the drama is also nice! They did a great job in the cinematography. However, I believe that they could still enhance something more with the cinematography. The setting of the story is also good, it is very modern and within our generation which made it more relatable. And also, this is a Romance, Comedy and Drama story.. So, there's alot of funny scenes that made me really laugh so hard. Next is the OSTs.. shoutout to those ARMYs out there since they always play some of BTS songs in here!

Some people might be wondering why I didn't discuss "my own ending" of the story if I were given the chance to. It's just because the ending is way too good for me to change it. It ended very well, and I felt satisfied with how every bit of the story turned out to.

The story of this drama really happens in real life, and most of us or some of us might be experiencing this right now. One thing I learned about Fight For My Way, is that not everything we wishes to happen will happen and will be given to us easily. Every successful thing that we accomplish in life is the root of all the hardwork that we did. Things might not go the way we planned it, but sooner or later it will all be given to us. All we have to do is work hard for it, rest, and get back to our feet again and strive harder.

So, if I'm gonna rate this drama from 1-10, I'm gonna rate it 9.5 🤩 I highly recommend this for you to watch. Very relatable, you'll really learn something, great actors, great chemistry and many more. I'm sure that you'll be able to enjoy this as much as I did 💖

🧚🏻‍♀️ That's it for my review about Fight For My Way. This post is quite long but this is an honest review. If ever you have watched this drama, just comment down below your toughts about it 😉 🧚🏻‍♀️
