Sick Rei with caring Kazuki/ Miri...
Just small notes on one of the ff’s in case my computer deletes the files again (so I have like a triple backup)...
(Just random-ass notes for right now to have a back-up back-up for myself) - feel free to comment or motivate me lol jk brb crying....
Title:
Kazuki sighed as he walked through the door, his keys jingling against the lock as Miri pushes past excitedly. It’s late in the afternoon which isn’t unusual for them to come home, but today- today was rough. Everything went wrong. The French toast had burned, Miri’s drop-off was late, the weather had changed from sunny to rainy despite the forecast, the store was out of almost everything needed for dinner, and Rei- well, Rei had been a dick pretty much all day.
Moody, Kazuki would say. Not unlike Rei, but that didn’t stop the 25-year-old from fighting Kazuki every step of the way. The older asked for help which he got- eventually- in a half-ass form of quiet grumbling and slow movements. Fold the laundry. Do the dishes. Vacuum. Gather intel on their mission tonight. It wasn’t hard, and these were things Rei had been trying to improve over the past couple of weeks. But today, Rei just fought Kazuki the whole way.
Last night they’d gotten into an argument over dinner. Rei pushing his food around as Miri listed off all the exciting things she’d done in preschool that day. Playing games. Building a castle. Learning a new song. Gossiping about boys. The last one Kazuki didn’t appreciate but he let it go, assuming Anna-chan was the main culprit for “men are a mystery.”
Miri poked Rei in the ribs causing the younger man to flinch, turning towards her a few moments later, a questionable look plaster on tired features. She pointed a finger towards his plate, “You okay, Rei-Papa?”
Rei hummed before turning back towards his food, pushing a tomato around the white porcelain and resting his chin on his hand. Kazuki sighed, glancing over Rei’s features, trying to pinpoint something, anything. Truth was, Rei had been quiet all day- well, quieter than usual. He’d forgone playing his videogames halfway through the day, picking up a book that Kazuki had been reading, flipping through the pages before retreating to his room until the older had called him for dinner. …
           Ever since he turned 25 a few days prior, Rei had backed off. Retreating more to isolation and distancing himself from conversations Kazuki had come to expect from the ladder over the past three years. He hadn’t discussed what his father had wanted, and Kazuki didn’t push him. He didn’t want to know if Rei didn’t want him to- but the past couple of days had been weighing heavily, if not on Rei’s shoulders, but Kazuki’s. Something had happened. With Rei’s father. Something that Kazuki couldn’t fix- that seemed to erase the progress over the past few years. And that pissed Kazuki off.
           Rei hummed again as Miri asked another question, and Kazuki bit his lip as more food was pushed around, chopsticks scraping against glass. Rei had barely touched his food. He’d barely touched anything over the past couple of days- food, drinks, video games- even jerking away from Miri’s wild hands, and Kazuki’s gentle fingers. The 28-year-old didn’t want to pry, he really didn’t, but over the past three years, Kazuki had come to know Rei well enough to know when something was wrong. And something was.
           Rei’s chopsticks faltered, and his fingers froze as he inhaled loudly before setting the wooden utensil against the plate gently. Miri reached over, asking if she could have something from Rei’s plate, and the younger man nodded slowly, his gaze still cast on the barely touched food. Kazuki exhaled forcefully, “What’s your problem, huh?”
           The words left his mouth in a tense fashion Kazuki hadn’t known was there. He swallowed a few times as he closed his eyes, hoping they didn’t sound as harsh as they’d come across. He hadn’t meant to sound bitter- if anything he was more worried over the fact that Rei was mirroring his image from a few years ago than he was mad, but the words were twisted in his throat, dry against the concern he hoped plastered his face. But that was how the argument had started. Kazuki’s question coming out harsher than intended, his concern turning sharp and accusatory. And Rei glaring towards him.
           The 25-year-old leaned forward slightly; his eyes unwavering as he met Kazuki’s gaze. He expression cold as he cleared his throat, “Right now, you’re my problem...”
           The argument had escalated quickly and ended in Miri crying because her Papas were fighting. Kazuki had tried calming her, explaining they were just tired; and Rei had retreated to his room.
And that was the end of it. Until morning.
           Miri had insisted on filling the gaps of silence between Rei and Kazuki over breakfast; her mindless chatter usually a comfort to Kazuki, but today- today it was just a reminder of the previous night. Of Rei snapping at him. Of Rei’s attitude… and the hellish idea that after Miri was dropped at preschool, Kazuki would have to spend the whole day with someone who just wanted to be left alone.
           The 28-year-old had tried, really, to leave Rei alone as it seemed the younger wasn’t in any better spirits than before. But it was laundry day, and most of the chores he had, had become easier over the past few weeks with Rei helping him out. Besides, Kazuki tried apologizing, and Rei tried accepting it; but his part of the housework was sloppy at best. And after refolding the laundry and vacuuming again, Kazuki had given up. Clearly whatever was wrong was something Rei would have to deal with on his own… the 28-year-old would have to just leave him alone until then.
           But that was easier said than done… especially with a hyperactive 4-year-old.
           The apartment was dark when Kazuki stepped over the threshold. This wouldn’t have been as alarming considering it was raining, but it was only 15.00
           Kazuki pressed Miri against his thigh, his hand protectively forced against her shoulder blades as the little girl let out a small whine of discomfort. Kazuki knew he was being a little harsh with his grasp on her, but it was dark in here, and his internal alarms were going off. His observations skills drinking in everything his eyes could grasp, every small detail, every sound…
           If someone was here, if Rei was dead- well, Kazuki didn’t really want to finish that thought; but if Rei was dead, and that would be a big if, then his first act would be to get Miri out of here; away from the scene, the blood, away from a corpse- to protect her, to protect her innocence. But once she was safe, Kazuki was going to tear the whole damn world apart if-
           Miri squirmed against his thigh, slipping out from his grasp, and Kazuki reached for her, his fingers ghosting over her hoodie as he whispered her name. He stumbled, catching himself against the TV, his fingers reaching under the drawer, gripping for the gun locked behind the false bottom before light filled the room, and Kazuki squinted. He raised a hand, shielding his eyes as Miri pulled back the curtains, letting grey light filter through the room, rain splattering against the glass. He quickly released his grip on the gun, shoving the bottom back over the weapon and glanced around.
“Found you, Rei-Papa!” Miri shrieked as she pointed towards Rei sprawled across the couch, sleeping at an awkward angle, and Kazuki relaxed slowly. He let out a loud breath, running a hand through his blonde hair, glancing once more around the room as his eyes scanned for any hidden danger but coming up empty. There wasn’t a threat here. No one was planning on killing them… well, at least, not right now.
           “I found you! Found you! Found you! Found-”
Silence wasn’t something Miri was good at. Neither was Kazuki. Silence meant something was wrong. Silence was pain. Memories… waiting. Thoughts. Silence was thoughts that crept through cracks in the walls of memories Kazuki wanted to forget, to forgive… to leave. Silence wasn’t a comfort to him. But now, right now, silence was all he had.
              “Rei?”
             Kazuki knelt down in front of the couch, his eyes tracing over the pale features of Rei. His black hair covering most of his face as he slept, his left arm hanging off the couch, his fingers ghosting the ground.
             Kazuki smirked, running his fingers through Rei’s hair, brushing some of the black strands away from his face. He faltered, his knuckles stroking against the warmth radiating from the younger’s forehead, and the older sighed loudly. A fever. Rei was sick… or at least, felt sick. That’s why he’d been so moody today. Why he’d been distance over the past few days. He hadn’t felt well. Kazuki should have figured that out. But Rei had never really been sick in front of him. A migraine, sure. Some in-field wounds, and a few nightmares… but sick? No.
 “I found you! Found you! Found you! Found-”
 “Miri, stop… please,” Kazuki said softly, running his fingers through Rei’s hair again as the younger groaned slightly, his eyes scrunching together.
             Kazuki breathed loudly, “Hey.” Handsome.
 “It’s easier for me to leave if you hate me.”
“What?”
Sometimes even clean wounds become infected
 “Your wrist,” Kazuki said softly, his fingers ghosting over the deep three-inch cut lining Rei’s forearm. The flesh was red and angry, enflamed and hot to the touch. Infected. The wound was infected.
           Kazuki’s mind wondered to a few nights ago when… Rei had been hurt then. Kazuki should have seen; should have looked him over… but Rei didn’t want to talk and he was standing… so the thought of him being hurt, hadn’t really crossed the 28-year-old’s mind. Besides, if it was bad enough, Rei would have told him. He had learned from his mistake last year when Kazuki had taken him to the A&E before he bled to death in the shitty apartment bathroom. Blood smeared against the glass pane on the car window, Rei slumped against the door, his breathing shallow as his fingers tried gripping again at the open wound stabbed against his abdomen; and Kazuki cursed loudly as he reached over, his fingers grasping the younger’s shoulder to keep him awake…
           Rei groaned as Kazuki prodded the flesh harshly, pressing along the scabbed skin, his thumbnail digging slightly under the scab, releasing bloody puss from the swollen area. He hummed softly as Rei flinched, his head lolling against the tub before smacking against the older man’s shoulder, and the 28-year-old tightened his grip over the younger’s shoulders protectively, pulling him closer so Rei was leaning against his chest.
           “Rei,” Kazuki murmured, his voice low and soft, “The wound on your wrist is infected.” You idiot.
           Rei didn’t respond, and Kazuki tried again, shifting slightly to peer down at the younger man.
 “Okay, okay,” Kazuki started, reaching behind him, turning the knobs on the bathtub faucets. He needed to get Rei’s fever down. Get him to wake up… and then clean the wound…
 Kazuki’s left arm around Rei’s ribs to support him…
             Rei coughed weakly, turning his head slightly so his forehead pressed against Kazuki’s collarbone, and the older let out a sigh of relief as the younger man shifted. Kazuki dipped the cloth in the water again, adjusting his grip, supporting more of Rei’s weight against his shoulder as he wrung the rag over the 25-year-old’s heated back slowly. Water splashing against scarred flesh, trailing down Rei’s back in sweaty lines, disappearing beneath stilled lukewarm water. Kazuki repeated the action several times, adjusting his grip each time the younger shifted before pressing the soaked material on the back of Rei’s neck.
           Kazuki swallowed slowly; his actions hesitant as he placed a hand over Rei’s bare back, rubbing his fingers against the tension knotted across his shoulder blades, and the younger man relaxed further against him. Something moved outside the door, and Kazuki glanced towards the door, a small smirk crossing his face as he saw Miri’s shadowed back pressed against the frosted glass door. She was worried, and she had every right to be. Probably upset too as Kazuki made her sit in the hallway instead of the bathroom with him and Rei as she demanded. But despite how much she wanted to help, she’d only get in the way at the moment.
           Rei groaned again, coughing roughly as he moved a hand through the water slowly until it connected with Kazuki’s bicep. His fingers gripping at the 28-year-old’s sleeve loosely, his hand shaking before trailing back down and smacking against the water. Kazuki removed the rag from his neck and dipped it in the water once more, wringing out the excess over the younger’s back again, his shoulders, his chest. He bit the inside of his cheek as he gently uncurled Rei’s grasp on him, cupping the back of his neck and positioning the 25-year-old so he was leaning against the end of the bathtub.
           Kazuki brushed some messy black strands away from Rei’s face, mopping against the sweat covering his pale face as the younger clenched his eyes further, curling in on himself, his head turning slightly.
           “Rei?” Kazuki whispered, “You with me?”
           At first, the 25-year-old didn’t respond, and Kazuki swallowed, combing Rei’s bangs away from his forehead so he could see him better. A few minutes passed, and Miri shifted outside the door, her back pressing harshly against the glass and the sound of several small objects dropping to the wooden floor, rolling away quietly. Kazuki tried again, “Rei?”
           He ran his thumb over the younger’s temple slowly, his fingers carded through thick, messy tangles of black hair matted against heated flesh. Rei swallowed loudly before cracking his eyes open, his eyes searching for a second before landing on Kazuki leaning over the tub, his face a few inches from his. Kazuki smiled, “Hey. There he is.”
           Rei groaned, making an effort to force his body up before strong hands forced him back down gently, and the younger complied. He cleared his throat, swallowing again as water washed over him slowly, and the 25-year-old flinched as something pressed against his forehead, cheek, neck… chest. He blinked slowly, focusing on Kazuki’s movements as the older wrung out another cloth, pressing against Rei’s neck and shoulders.
           Rei coughed again, confusion eating away at his features as he pushed his hand against Kazuki’s hovering over his chest. He gulped, his eyebrows drawing together as Kazuki met his gaze, his blonde hair momentarily covering his brown eyes, and the older man smiled softly, pausing as Rei’s heated fingers covered his.
           The 25-year-old glanced around sluggishly, trying to piece together what was happening. His mind was muddled and foggy… like he’d been drugged, or he’d lost blood. Or something. Like something… His movements were weak and slow. And everything was hot. So fucking hot.
           Kazuki pressed the wet rag against Rei’s forehead gently, soaking the sweat rolling from his temple past flushed red set high on pale cheekbones. He untangled his other hand from Rei’s grasp and soaked another cloth, pressing firmly against the younger’s collarbone. The ladder made a small noise, and gripped tightly at Kazuki’s hand again, and the 28-year-old stopped.
           “No,” Rei breathed sharply, choking for a second as a dry cough made its way past his lips. His eyes fixed onto Kazuki’s as the older man held his gaze, making another attempt to move. Rei used his clasp on Kazuki to pull himself up somewhat, shoving his other hand against Kazuki’s chest harshly, preventing the ladder from moving closer to him. Kazuki faltered, wiggling his fingers, and Rei gripped tighter, his glare turning cold as he set his jaw, “No.”
           Kazuki swallowed, letting Rei clasp his fingers harder as he inched forward carefully. He exhaled lightly, a seriousness masking his features as he made sure to keep eye contact with the younger man. Rei’s features were alert- wrong, wild and fevered- but so very alert…
           “Rei,” Kazuki whispered cautiously, “Are you still with me?”
           Rei’s grip tightened, and Kazuki winced as fingernails dug into the skin on his hand, but he made no attempt to pull away. He tried again, “You’re sick. Your fever’s 40.8, remember? I need to cool you off… Please.” Please, let me help you, you idiot…
           Kazuki held his breath, biting the inside of his cheek as Rei kept his grip, his eyes searching over the older man’s face tiredly, before his grip loosened slowly, his hand falling against the water with a loud smack. The expression on Rei’s face softened slightly as realization washed over him, and he swallowed as he flopped back, water splashing against the tiled floor as he let his head fall back against the tub.
           “Sorry, Kazu,” Rei said softly, closing his eyes against the lights hanging above him as he swallowed against the dryness in mouth. Kazuki smirked, “No worries. I was more concerned I’d have to fight you… that would be hard to explain to our daughter…”
           A small smile toyed with Rei’s lips as Kazuki’s words reached him. Our daughter. Our. They weren’t dating. Nor married. Nor even hinted at some form of romantic or physical relationship, and yet Kazuki always had the audacity to describe Miri as theirs… or ours. A stupid inclusion that Rei had grown quite fond of over the past few months… He’d never really been included before, nor had he ever gone out of his way to include others.
But Kazuki had always made an effort to get Rei’s opinion on things- not that the younger really cared either way when it came to decision making. He’d learned a long time ago; his opinion didn’t matter. He didn’t matter. He was a soldier. An asset. Nothing more and nothing less… the product of a loveless marriage and carefully selected breeding. He wasn’t a son. He wasn’t a person. No one claimed him. No one wanted him… until Kazuki wormed his way into Rei’s cold dark little world.
Truth was, at first, it’d been a stupid arrangement that the younger man had gone along with because it didn’t matter- he had planned on killing himself… or at least, getting killed in the field. At least that would have had more pride than the ladder. Thing is, Rei didn’t need a roommate, and Kazuki didn’t need a distraction. But Rei had stupidly taken a bullet for the older man, and Kazuki knew how to cook…
And Kazuki cared. For some ungodly reason, he cared. And that was weird. It made Rei uncomfortable. His emotions, his expressions; the way he made sure the younger man ate, bathed, and looked after himself. He changed things Rei hadn’t cared about. He bought furniture and games, and sat at the other end of the couch, talking, always fucking talking, about some nonsense that Rei ignored… and despite how much of himself Rei had tried to turn off; Kazuki just wouldn’t let him. Even on his bad days. Even when Rei stayed in his room or in the bathtub, curled up, his knees pressed against his chest as he fought to see through memories that haunted sleepless nights and stopped his lungs from taking in air. Kazuki was still there.
He wasn’t overbearing… well, most of the time, he wasn’t. When Rei was struggling, Kazuki would leave his door open, checking in on the other, making sure Rei knew that if he wanted to talk, he was there. But he didn’t pressure him… he didn’t pry. He didn’t ask about the scars littering his chest, back and arms; he didn’t force him to talk when Rei woke up screaming… or when he stayed up for nights on end because he couldn’t close his eyes.
He respected Rei’s boundaries, and very rarely crossed them because that’s just who Kazuki was. He was a good person who lived a horrible life, and yet, somehow, he hadn’t turned out completely fucked up the Rei was. He hadn’t turned out useless… But perhaps that’s why their arrangement remained. Kazuki needed someone to take care of, and Rei- Rei needed someone to take care of him. He wasn’t an invalid, he wasn’t weak… he just didn’t care if he lived or died. Indifference crept into his life a long time ago, and buried itself so far deep within Rei that it became a core part of who he was. Indifferent. And. So. Fucking. Useless.
Something tapped against Rei’s cheek, and the 25-year-old opened his eyes slowly, unaware he’d closed them. He felt exhausted, the idea of having to….
“Can I wash your hair, Rei?” Kazuki asked softly, running his hand through Rei’s stale black hair gently, grimacing at the stiff strands. …
Strawberries. Miri’s tearless shampoo. The smell was overpowering, and Rei gagged loudly causing Kazuki to flinch, pulling the younger up clumsily until he was in a sitting position, his head smacking against the 28-year-old’s chest. The action was sharp and jarring, and Rei gagged again as he shut his eyes, the room around him spinning harshly as his overheated mind tried catching up with the rest of his body. He gripped his hand against Kazuki’s bicep, clenching his mouth shut as he breathed through the action; his body relaxing after a few minutes; the dizziness evading.
Kazuki exhaled as Rei’s grip around his arm loosened, and he cleared his throat, “Sorry, I’m almost done… I didn’t mean to pull you up so quickly, Rei.”
 ��            His fingers felt nice. Strong, warm and gentle; massaging some of the pain exploding along his temples, behind his ears, down his neck.
 Wounds treated- nakedness wasn’t an embarrassment for them as they’d seen each other naked several times over the past few years- patching wounds… comfort…  Flashback to Rei caring for Kazuki (wound)
“I, uh, can stay… if you want.” Rei wasn’t a physical touch type of person but he knew Kazuki was.
               Rei isn’t entirely sure how much time had passed but the next time he woke, he was in bed. A fresh grey shirt plastered against his chest, sweat lining the collar and sleeves…
             “Rei? You awake?”
           “You still have a temperature, but it dropped to 38.8.”
           Rei nods slowly. He isn’t entirely sure what the number means nor does he care… fresh bandages on his wrist…
 Flashback to his father forcing him to work through sickness…. When he was 15, he’d gotten sick. Like really sick….
   Blood trailed down his temple, soaking against the black shirt pressed to bleeding flesh, cuts and bruises, red painting his body as busted ribs took in shallow breathes. Rei pressed the gun harder against Kazuki’s head causing the older to wince as he looked up; the black eye Rei had given him earlier, swelling; his lip busted….
 They were pitted against each other with Rei’s orders to kill Kazuki as he’d become a liability. He was no longer an asset, no longer useful to the Boss. That’s how it worked. Once the Boss had proven you a problem, you were taken out. Most of the time, the task was handed out… but this time, this time, the Boss wanted to give Rei one last chance to prove he wasn’t useless. To prove he could obey. Like before…
 The truth was it wasn’t a fair fight. Kazuki was strong… stronger than Rei had accounted for and determined. But Rei had experience on him. Years and years of experience. He was less emotional because emotions were dangerous. Reckless. And Kazuki wasn’t an assassin- he wasn’t skilled with weaponry or great in hand-to-hand combat. Rei was.
  The Boss yelling behind him to obey. To always obey… Obey. Why? He was old enough now to make his own decisions, and the Boss couldn’t hurt him anymore- he could only kill him. But death was never an issue. Never … if anything, it was a solution. If the Boss killed him in place of Kazuki, then he wouldn’t have to see the ladder in pain. Or watch Kazuki or Miri die… But perhaps that was selfish.
 K- “It’s okay, Rei. I forgive you.”
No one had ever forgiven him before, nor had he ever asked for it. He never needed it but with Kazuki… for Kazuki…
 Rei turns the gun on his Boss. The man who was supposed to be his father…
Don’t be ridiculous, boy. I’m your own flesh and blood. I’m your father.
No.
Excuse me?
“No. You’re not my father. You told me that every chance you got. Every time you were teaching me a lesson. Every time you or someone else was kicking the shit out of me. Every time you forced me to work through the pain, through broken bones and fevers, through bad dreams. Every time I begged you, screamed for you. Every time I cried for you. But that’s not what a father is. That’s not what a father is supposed to be. You were supposed to protect me. You were supposed to keep me safe. To be there when I needed you. To take care of me when I was hurt or sick. To soothe my nightmares, not become them. So, you’re not my father. You never were. You’re a Boss… but you’re no longer mine.”
  Years of sleepless guilt. Some people deserve to die. Strength feels better than weakness. When was the last time I felt like I belonged anywhere, like really belonged?
Why participate in society. It’s a cold, cruel world, and you cant survive on your own. Killing is just a part of the profession.
 “I need to ask you something and it’s going to be selfish.”
 Food hadn’t been a good idea. This was the thought that crossed Rei’s mind as he curled in on himself, his stomach twisting harshly as it made clear that, after a few days of barely eating, food wasn’t something he could handle right now.
 “Metallica?”
“Hey.”
“You were singing Metallica?”
“Yeah, sorry, I didn’t think you were awake,” Maybe Kazuki holding a sleeping Miri, or Miri asleep next to Rei, Kazuki lying on the other side of her… He went to make dinner and when he looked back in the living room, she was gone- she hadn’t really seen you in 2 days—Kazuki found her curled up next to Rei, Rei’s hand on her back protectively so he left them there.
           “How are you feeling?”

"le fever" James you've known him for like six years you know its pronounced Le Fevre. You just don't want people knowing you've accidentally learned French.

I love how the spirit of US engineering has always been a little bit crackhead, a little bit redneck. Who the fuck in 1770-whatever answers the question "How do we beat the British Navy" with "well lets just go under them"??? I wish these engineers had had amphetamines, we'd have colonized Mars by now.
Tumblr media
Its the maiden test mission and their fucking target is a goddamn first-rate flagship???? They couldn't have, I don't know, taken out a schooner first?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That is a nautical fuckton of ships.

Okay but why is it so gosh darn cute????

In a way, Henri was right. She wasn't disappointed.

"yes-uh!"

You are so right tho I checked Aston’s instagram and just looking at their feed not specific posts at first glance you deadass could say that Mick drives for Aston Martin not Lance. Mick is on a 2nd and 6th latest post when Lance is on 19th and 7th💀 and I mean I get that posts that have Seb as the first photo probably get more likes or whatever but come on
yup, to just open the aston insta and look at it you'd be hard pushed to think lance is one of their drivers like i get he doesn't like social media or the english speaking* media and all but damn its ridiculous, and then if you look at the comments on the most recent lance pic? disgusting
Edit: I scrolled through their insta again and the skew is much worse than I thought 😬
*he's nuetral at best with english/american media outlets but with the french/french canadian media he's nearly always smiling so brb gotta learn french for happy lance content

Jess Watches // Mon 15 Apr // Day 201 Synopses & Favourite Scenes & Poll
The Resident (with mum) 3x02 Flesh of My Flesh
Intending to garner publicity for the hospital, Cain tries to recruit Bell and Kit on a dangerous surgery; the Raptor develops an emotional attachment to a patient; Mina's friend arrives with shocking news.
I'm with Mina being shocked by her friends refusal to do a test because of 'God's will'. She knowingly doomed her future child when she really didn't have to. And hello again, Mr. David Alan Grier. I couldn't fully appreciate your guest appearance because I was dazzled by AJ's earrings.
Frasier (with mum) 6x02 Frasier's Curse
Frasier's high school reunion comes around, but he has come to believe that a curse will hit him with some fresh misfortune, as it has for every previous reunion.
Tumblr media
Daphne lowering her hand down Roz's back, leading her towards the bedroom. I'm suddenly feeling the need to check ao3, brb.
Killing Eve (Remix) [x] 3x06 Truth or Dare
4x05 - Villanelle bonds with Carolyn, then murders the abusive husband of her Cuban hostess. Eve abducts Hélène's daughter and she retaliates by forcing Eve is to watch Villanelle being struck by an arrow.
Sharing a bath, eating soup, french-kissing, kidnapping, auditing a lecture, car-pooling, banging on windows, choking a bitch, running, cradling an unconscious assassin who you are most definitely not in love with. All in a days work for Ms. Eve. Also, did anything come of the Carolyn spinoff they tried to force on us?
Amphibia 1x07 Dating Season / Anne vs. Wild
Anne and Hop Pop learn that Sprig may like Ivy Sundew, so they attempt to set them up. / Anne pretends to like camping, which is fine until she goes dangerously overboard.
Please let kids be friends without forcing romantic pairings on them. Leave them to ambush each other and play-fight in peace. And I feel Anne in not wanting to miss out on family trips but sometimes it's just better for everyone if you stay home lol. Also, why did that camper have a bitemark out of his tongue??

Who Am I?
I never actually asking who I am before. I never try to define it before. I also never truly understand what I like, what I hate. I thought it’s not the right way to live life. I thought life should be like a water flow, you float and get adaptive. I always try to fit in and at the same time I know that I’m unique in a away.
I always thought if I don’t have a personality, I can easily blend in. People accept me. It’s not that I want people to love me, but at least I want people to see me like-able. If they were asked to divide people who they know on groups, I would like them to always put me on their “good people” group. I’m not sure what advantage I would get if I always get the like of people, it’s not that they put me as priority so far, I never got myself into a “selective” training even (context: KL BDM Training). That’s just how I’m not memorable and considered as a bright employee.
I’m almost 30 and I still need people acceptance, omg. I really need to work on my inner peace and inner acceptance.
Let’s start working on what kind of personality I really have if I don’t care about people by channeling to my childhood. Since they said it’s how you reconnect to who you really are.
1. I like to draw, I like art, I like pretty stuff. My mother always said that I’m creative, into arts, have a talent on that.
2. Once I’m a selfish little kid, but my dad said that I need to “mengalah” to my cousin (a little game where you pick things on the magazine, who calls on dips first, gets it but only their delulu brain lol). Ever since then, I always mengalah. I just feel like what’s the point of winning.
3. The only drive I have, for example getting myself into a good uni, studying hard, learning things, is my willingness to be accepted by the society. It’s just a FOMO thing. I saw my friend got accepted in the good uni, I also want that. I saw my friend able to drive a car, I learn that. I saw my friend got themselves a cool dress, I’m trying to be trendy. I saw my friend study very hard and get As, I study so hard myself. Pretty much I’m not original, but somehow gets myself the best of me lol.
4. I like girly stuff. I like barbie. I like girly movie. I like rom com. I like fashion magazines. I like french thingy.
5. I want to be an astronaut and I want to be a house wife. Two complete opposites. I want to be an astronaut because I was mesmerized with stars and galaxy. I want to be a house wife because I want to be around my loved ones, looking back that Mama never home when I got home from school.
6. I love spinach soup, my love toward soupy food already since I was a child lol. I like Popeyes because he likes my fav food.
7. I like to be home. I’m a homebody. I got nervous when someone comes in to my house tho, so I prefer to go go my friend’s home rather than having them at mine.
8. I like to stroll by myself since I understand money. I will use my money just to go the nearest supermercado when I got bored. Amazing. Retail therapy since 5 yo.
Brb, watching a romcom.

HELP IM GONNA TRY NOT TO BE SO AWKWARD WITH THIS OKOKOKOK…. Okay okay okay. I am 5”3 and i have an athletic build and I recently dyed my hair blue. It was a disaster at first but I’m really warming up to it. Especially after the purple shampoo gave it a bit of a sky blue color(my favorite.) I listen to a lot of different types of music, it’s a lot of 2010s pop or early 2000s rock because I’ve been on a horrid nostalgia kick. But I also listen to a lot of movie soundtracks, guardians of the galaxy, the goofy movie, even like old anime soundtracks. Ouran and black butler had me by the nuts growing up. So did FNAF, ddlc, yandere sim etc. I absolutely loved 2016 and still do oops. I am a cancer and only a couple days behind leo. I’m really sensitive and get my feelings hurt easily but I don’t take it out on anyone. If it gets to the point of not being able to take it then I’ll confront my feelings as respectfully as possible. I don’t get as snappy at other people as I used to, I’m more mellow now. I am very hard on myself though and need a strict routine. Like, wake up, wash face, eat, workout, homework, write, eat, etc. I like my routines and get stressed out easily if it’s broken. I feel I need to loosen up a lot. I like being around people who aren’t intimidating, or if they are we have already broken that barrier. I’ve had icky experiences with people so trust issues 📈📈📈📈My hobbies are writing, art, learning French, and working out. I’ve been creating art since I was a kid and so growing up everyone thought I was going to be an artist, but I made a promise to myself to never make my passion a job. Art class taught me that. I’m a portrait and abstract artist, I HATE doing landscapes but I love looking at them. I really love monet. I’ve been writing since middle school because I was a huge homestuck and anime loser so someone had to write the fanfics and assign people characters lol. Oh god I used to wear homestuck horns to school. ANYWAYS I’ve been working out for the past couple years, it helps a lot with my confidence. It also helps me keep on top of my meals :) OH AND I DONT EAT MEAT BUT ILL EAT FISH SO PESCATARIAN! I’ve also had a sweet tooth lately 😋 OKAY THATS IT THIS IS WAY TOO LONG!!!! THANK YOU AGAIN WHUDBDJBD -🦝
Henlo hun, thanks for the ask to be shipped!
First of all as a person who's favourite artist has always been Monet I stan you.
Okay let's get into this.
I am so convinced that you belong with Lixie!
You would watch marvel movies together on the couch in the dorms and you're 100% both crying during most of them. Felix and you would probably do so many things together! You'd cook food together, work out together, all that jazz.
He would for sure try to play some of your favourite games with you. I'm convinced he already played yandere sim before. It just seems so like him.
But now the most important thing with lixie is CUDDLES. This man would not give you a break (in the best way). You're standing in front of him? Backhug. You're standing next to him? Hand on your hips. You're sleeping? He's half on top of you. Sitting somewhere? Wrong, you're sitting on his lap.
Yongbok is so soft for you he would do anything and everything to keep you happy. We stan.
Now I'm also soft for him again. Brb while I search for some lixie fluff smh
I hope you like this <33

The country's dark wartime history and classic colonial architecture built by former French rulers are what I've learned in HCMC. But what I learned more is that I found my favorite SEA country where I can go back with friends or alone. Brb, Vietnam. 🇻🇳 #travel #photooftheday #vietnam (at Ho Chi Minh City - Saigon, Vietnam) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cko7tSPBmma/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
