౨ৎ ─ summary | paigey being your girlfriend - a list of relationship "headcanons"

─ warnings | in a bullet-point formatting, i hope you guys like it! fluff (lmk if yall want nsfw ones bc i can provide), paige being DOWN BAD, social media tingz, maybe alluding to being outed but not really, some angst but you can skip over it, paigey being protective (duh), nothing else?

─ taglist | @xocherishxo @iienstein @yazmunson and here's a link to my taglist if anyone would like to join!!

─ ev's notes | THIS IS SUCH LONG MESS BECAUSE I'M HAVING PAIGE BRAINROT RN, but i hope y'all enjoy nonetheless LOL being in my paige era i've read so many of these and i'm sure you guys have as well, so i'm making this as unique (or descriptive) as i possibly can to make it because it's more fun to read (and write cus im a sucker for details)

PRE-RELATIONSHIP STUFF

when you guys first started dating, i feel like paige would be kind of secretive about it

maybe secretive isn't the right word but very... private but not secret type of vibe (at least irl)

not because she doesn't want to show you off, because believe me, she wants to (she's a bragger what can i say)

but just because she wants to keep you all to herself for a while

she knows that as soon as people find out about it, everyone will be talking about it and making assumptions and she just wants to keep you to herself

at least for a couple months

she doesn't care about the public's opinions but she wants to make sure that y'all are LOCKED IN before she makes it public on social media

but it's clear to paige that y'all are very much locked in after the first couple weeks

she's not new to relationships and she's had her fair share but she can tell that it's different now

so the whole "not sure if i wanna hard/soft launch her cus what if we're not a long term" sentiment turns into "i wanna keep this special thing to myself ONLY for at least a couple months"

and of course the entire team knows paige is down bad for you, they've never ever seen her this WHIPPED

because paige seems like she'd be nonchalant and SHE IS... for people she doesn't give a fuck about

so when she likes someone, she LIKES someone

she is extra what can i say

they tease her about it and in any other situation, she would be annoyed but she loooooooves it because it's like "yeah i'm in the best most awesome relationship with the cutest sweetest and kindest girl in the PLANET"

you and paige would've definitely known of each other since freshman year but like... she's kinda intimidating so you sorta tried to steer clear of her

you were really close with some of the girls on the team, specifically azzi so you saw paige kind of a lot

but sophomore year, azzi kind of pushed you guys to be close and since she knows you guys so well, IT WORKED!

you guys clicked so quick and that doesn't happen a lot with paige, it takes a lot to earn her friendship

but you practically ripped down all her walls within like an hour of talking to her

definitely the first one to catch feelings

at least... to her ;)

very much friends to lovers trope with lots of sexual tension cus who doesn't love that?

i feel like after 3 months of being really close friends, you guys would spend like a shit ton of time together

you guys were ALWAYS together

she even tried to convince you to come to practice with her but you said no cus... what the heck

everyone knows... EVERYONE knows that paige likes you

and it kind of becomes like cemented (for paige at least) after she realized you were her literal COMFORT PERSON

like after every terrible, long practice or after losing games all she wants to do is be AROUND YOU so she could forget about everything

especially when she gets injured, she's such a wreck and the only person who made her feel better was you

it wasn't even what you said or what you did, it was simply just you

and after going through such a bad time with you, she realized that she liked you and she can't keep pretending

and she asked you (yaya!) and you said yes cus you liked her back (yaya!) and everything is just YAYA

so it's safe to say she knows she's found her soulmate within a month of knowing you

but she doesn't wanna seem like she's love-bombing you or whatever so she pretended to be nonchalant

which of course FAILS because she's down bad

so she tells you she loves you within like a month of dating

i KNOW it seems bad but you guys both felt it because of the whole injury and spending every moment together

when you know, you know vibes

she told you she loved you after you were there for her through some of the worst times of her life and you said it back of course and it's all cutesy

paige's love language is TOTALLY quality time and touch

even before you were dating, she just liked having her hands on you whether it was like holding your hand while walking through a crowd, or braiding your hair, or putting her head on top of yours or something as simple as just HUGGING you

but she kept it cordial of course cus y'all weren't dating

yeah that was all thrown out the window as soon you became her girlfriend

hands on you at ALL times, it becomes so subconscious neither of you even know you're doing it anymore

so remember that whole secret relationship thing?

well... everyone kind of figures it out online after like 3 months of dating

it was because of paige, poor girl couldn't keep her hands and lips off of you after a particularly hard game and somehow 🤨🤨someone gets a picture and it was all over twitter and tiktok the next day

literally "paige bueckers girlfriend" trending after an hour of getting posted

but neither of you cared too much about it because A. it was totally worth it cus the kiss was 😫😫😫 and B. she finally doesn't have to turn off her girlfriend mode when she's with you at games

cus she has the prettiest and best gf in the world and she wants everyone to know that

the only reason she was slightly annoyed was because she couldn't hard launch you on instagram :( poor girl had potential captions in her notes :( cus she's our little drama queen:(

but that doesn't stop her cus she ends up doing it! (shameless plug right there hehehe)

now that she can freely touch you and just be herself finally, she literally doesn't GAFFF

of course nothing like over the top because sure she loves PDA to a certain extent and she's an athlete so she needs to keep it civil

RELATIONSHIP STUFF

we've already covered how paige is a physical touch and quality time girly

and paige loves spending literally all her free time with you because you just recharge her

but it isn't in like an overwhelming way

paige understand that sometimes you need quiet time (or vice versa) but the thing is she doesn't even need you to talk just being around you is enough

so idk if it's necessarily QUALITY time but just being around you and spending every free second she has with you tells you that she is in love with you

paige is the most protective person IN THE WORLD, not just with you like in general

it doesn't even have to be someone she knows, if she sees someone giving someone else a hard time SHE WILL STEP IN!

and with her friends, y'all have seen her... she does not back down and will literally murder anyone who comes for the people she cares about

so if that's with people she doesn't know, and her friends, you guys can imagine how crazy she gets over you

if somebody says something even slightly consendecing or mean, slap. someone looks at you the wrong way? slap. somebody breaths wrong around you, slap.

obviously she won't lay a hand on them first but likeeee would she back down, nope

she is actually your guardian angel

like at parties, her hand is always on you and she never ever leaves your side

you need to get a drink, she's coming to

if you need to pee? she'll wait in the bathroom for you

yeah don't expect her to leave your side

because even when she IS by your side, there is always a weirdo in your guys' ear trying to get with one (or both!) of you

but yeah she's not afraid to defend you when it comes to literally anything

and this doesn't only apply to strangers, if there is someone that you know (your friend, her friend, etc) she WILL stand by you and defend you

like she doesn't shy away from confrontation, she will say something but only if you want her to

and GOD HELP THEM if you shed a single tear, cus the next morning you bet she's saying something

like i said, paige is a confrontational person and that means she's the biggest communicator

if she has a problem, she will tell you so that you guys can fix it

but sometimes she can come off a little argumentative and like she's just attacking you

she uses a lot of "you" statements so it seems like she's pushing the blame all on to you

so that can be the root of a lot of your guys' arguments when paige is only trying to solve the issues

but of course paige doesn't back down so she will be arguing with you even if she doesn't even know why, she just hates being wrong

but she doesn't let you leave or go to sleep unless the problem is fixed (or at least on the road to being fixed)

she'll give you space, she'll go another room to take a breather but she will not let you leave until it is fixed

usually after the breather you guys can come to an agreement and then paige usually hugs all the anger outta you

cus who could resist her?

if the argument lasts a couple days (it usually doesn't unless it's something serious) paige will talk it out with her mom or her friends

and you'll usually do the same

and paige will force you to sit down and talk about it until it is FIXED because she hates not being able to talk to you

and when you guys do eventually talk about it, especially if it's a serious topic, it will end with tears with both parties

but you guys always make up and everything will be better

okay okay no more angst ... for now hehehe

i feel like paige's nervous tic would be braiding the ends of her hair so i feel like that would transfer to YOU somehow

she just likes braiding your hair!!!!!! or just running her hands through your hair, it would help her relax

and if you're like me, it will help you relax as well

if you're black/have braids, she would only touch your hair if you let her!

paigey takes pictures OF EVERYTHING so obviously that includes you

her camera roll consists of ONLY you atp, like... 20% pics of literally anything else, and the rest would just be pictures of you or something to do with you

and oh my gosh don't get me started on the damn .5's of you, some of them are HORRENDOUSSSS and paige uses them as reaction pictures sometimes

and you found out from azzi that she does indeed use them in the girls groupchat

but she argues that you just look adorable which you respectfully disagree

oh and don't get me started on her tiktok drafts, she has at least 1,000 (rip her storage)

and when y'all started dating she just makes cute relationship tiktoks but she never posts them

EXPECT the "you're spinning me around, my feet are off the ground one" cus she wants to prove to the world that she has muscles

and the tiktok girlies will cry but WHO CARES!

oh and if you're on the basketball team, they will started to fan-girl over you as well

HELLA TIKTOK EDITS

and paige will favorite, repost and comment on them

like the most down-bad, insane comments you can think of

"GET THE STRAP GET THE STRAP!" is one of many ✨✨

if you aren't on the team, trust the tiktok girlies will find a way and they will make edits of you

and paige will do the same

obviously you do the same for her, your favorites are just paige edits atp (mine too)

ESPECIALLY THE GET IT SEXY ONE OMLL

and everyone will make ship edits and cutesy things like

"omg the way paige looks at her" and like a slideshow of paige being like all 😍😍😍

after paige gets more comfortable with like the media knowing about you two, she posts you every five seconds

usually like stories and stuff and especially if you’re also a basketball player, she reposts ALL your stuff

she is a proud gf !!!

she also has a highlight FOR SURE, she loves

also she def has like 10 diff wallpapers of you and her, some are really cute and some are really… 🫣

also paige strikes me as the type to like be texting you ALL DAY

and girl doesn’t care if you reply, she will send you 8 consecutive messages of different things

“omg look at the group chat 😂 *insert screeshot*” “baby they ran out of fucking caramel at dunkin, how does that happen ?” “i ended up going to a local cafe why did this shit cost me 9$” “baby you’re coming to my game on saturday right?” “HAHA look at this meme 😂” “why haven’t you responded to my tiktok’s in 2 days?”

yes she 100% uses the laughing with tears emoji argue with the WALL

or skull emoji

she also sends you 20 minute snapchat vlogs and they’re so chaotic, especially when she’s at practice or something

kk will steal her phone and say hi then you’ll hear them play fighting for like 80% of the vlog

also she does grwm’s on snapchat too when she’s at away games and her morning voice is SOOOO SEXY CUTE

please talk about syo or komaru or syomaru for the ask game, your takes are always so correct ( ˊ u ` )b

WAAA THANK YOU.. ;; /pos I will do all of them tbh... just give me a minute so I can make them separate posts (this one is so, so long as-is). In the meantime:

Syomaru

[click here for ask game link]

When I started shipping them:

Same time as Tokomaru. Tokosyomaru has always been a package ship 4 me. With that explained; this frame from UDG is what I credit as the straw that broke the camel's back (apologies 4 the yt screenshot I just can't be bothered to try and get a new one myself):

[ID: A YouTube screenshot of the cutscene that occurs after defeating the giant Monokuma final boss of Ultra Despair Girls. Toko Fukawa is holding Komaru Naegi by the waist, who is in-turn holding her megaphone gun in a partially ready position. Toko is to the right of Komaru, and they both have angry expressions on their faces. There is a red background with action lines on both the left and right of Komaru and Toko. End ID]

If I told you Syomaru blogger sho-fukawa spent up until the final boss fight of UDG telling themself they wouldn't ship the Fukawas with Komaru would you believe me? Bc that was my experience AJNDJNKGK-

My thoughts:

Rabies Pride catgirl (Syo) x Rabiosexual (Komaru) /j

UJADNIGNSJK joking aside it's soooo hard to articulate my thoughts on these 2 they're just a massive comfort ship 4 me... They can have such a wonderful, supportive relationship 'nd I like 2 think they lean on each-other a lot when Syo fronts. Soft kisses 'nd cuddles and whatnot. <3

What makes me happy about them:

Projection stuffs primarily? Very much love thoughts abt Syo being protective over Komaru (I have sooo many animation ideas when it comes to that one confrontation scene w/ Nagito I am not kidding I have Syomaru disease), and Komaru bringing out more of Syo than their "serial killer w/ jokes" exterior or w/e I kinda forgor canon. /lh

Oh also and in non-personal thoughts I think this is forever the screenshot of all time:

[ID: A screenshot of Komaru Naegi and Syo Fukawa, taken from the Danganronpa 3 anime. Syo, who is on the right, is holding Komaru's hands up and smiling with their eyes closed to the camera. Komaru seems to be whining, mouth open yet frowning with her eyes closed. End ID.]

What makes me sad about them:

Barely any time together in the source media. I will forever complain about how Syo & Toko's DID in general is just used as a punchline in Danganronpa, and how underutilized & underdeveloped that ends up leaving Syo. Also correct me if I'm wrong (it's been a minute since I've played through UDG), but that also leads Komaru to be written as not rlly distinguishing between Syo or Toko. :( TLDR: I haven't and never will trust the writers. <3

Things done in fanfic that annoys me:

Poor Syo writing 10000%, usually when people stick wayyyy too much to the "hyperactive serial killer" part of it. I don't have strong opinions on Syo being written still as a murderer like in canon, some people don't want to rewrite the canon whatever that's probably just a me-preference (if interested I can make a post talking abt my Syo headcanon thoughts later since I don't think I've ever talked abt it), but it is soooo annoying when people still leave them one-dimensional. I don't caareee if you think 1000 lines of "KYEHEHEHE" is in character you literally are not writing them with any emotions they're a flat cardboard stand that's spouting profanities. PLEASE just write Syo more like an actual individual.

Things I look for in fanfic:

If the last bullet point didn't make it obvious; good Syo writing. In general I'm not too picky with fanfic? I avoid coffee shop AUs & such and try to find works that aren't 200 words written out of character (no shade 2 new fanfic authors it's just hard 2 read), but that's not rlly specific to Syomaru. If I had to pick at my own interests: Stuff where they're protecting or caring for eachother in Towa City. Lot of material you can get out of that + I'm a sucker for one character being protective over another in a tense situation.

ALSO write Syo being soft or purring I am holding fanfic authors at gunpoint. /j But seriously Syo is all bark and no bite; they can dish out joking aggression and still be soft.

My wishlist:

No clue what OP meant with this bullet point tbh AJSDNJKSFGN. Oooo I need Syomaru plushies ooooo- /hj

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other:

Not Men™. Also I am very much uncomfortable with Syo x So//nia personally. Other than that I don't have many strong feelings.

Picking from my polyship w/ them, my alternatives would be Syo x Kyoko and Komaru x Miu x Kaede ??? Komaru's is much more "I have no reason for this other than I think it sounds super cool" but I am a secret sucker for Toko/ Syo x Kyoko, I think it could be an interesting dynamic depending on how you play it out. A win for nblw everywhere.

My happily ever after for them:

(Post-Despair) Komaru helps Syo get a more positive relationship with the other survivors of THH, also very-specifically helping Syo be on more amicable terms w/ Byakuya and Nagito, two people who they're probably not gonna ever fully be alright around. Syo & Komaru mostly just live on their own: maybe being visited a lot by Makoto & Kyoko (this thought lying in a Naegiri universe) and potential children those two might have after the world settles to more of a normal; allowing Syo another close bond with someone. Ignoring whatever work they may have, they would mostly spend their days with each other, cuddling in silence or trying to work on some sort of project together. Sometimes Komaru will leave Syo home alone so she can visit Makoto, but she usually will bring Syo with if possible since Syo doesn't get to front as frequently as Toko. I hope that all makes sense.

#「`✂ sho’s rambles`」#long post #<- i never know how much im gonna say abt something and then boom 40+ minutes writing abt syomaru /pos #im being serious i will answer a solo one for komaru & another for syo but it may take me a while-#-cuz man i did not expect to have so much to try and get across #anyways i hope you enjoyed ASJNKG <3 #✃✁// Contains:#danganronpa #ultra despair girls #udg #syomaru #syo fukawa #fukawa syo #genocider syo #genocide jack #genocide jill

Hi, I'm just starting out on posting Sims stuff on tumblr and I wanted to ask about the general etiquette? I guess? On posting Sims pictures. Like, I see people tagging the CC creators for some posts but not all of them. should I always tag the creator or ask if they want to be tagged? do I link to that specific CC or just to their page? what if I don't know the creator? I try and keep track but I have CC i downloaded from like. 2016 I think. and tagging on tumblr has always confused me, I've never really done more than reblogging things, do I just tag the posts with like "Sims 4" or???

sorry for the mass questions, i'm not new to tumblr but i'm new to actively trying to participate in a community on here and i'm kinda overwhelmed lol. which is also why i'm asking on anon bc otherwise I'd never hit send

anyways, i hope you have a good day/night! 🌻

Hi! Welcome to the community 💕

I don't think there are any rules for posting sims pics really, it's not necessary to tag creators if you don't want to, unless it's a lookbook. Other people may want to get the same stuff and it just makes sense to put links to the used items (it's the point of a lookbook) and tag creators (this isn't a must but creators very often reblog lookbooks and edits with their content if they like them so you might want them to see your pics and give you some exposure). If it's like an edit or something else that's not specified as a lookbook, you may put in the info the used CC and tag creators, but only if you feel like it. Again, there are no strict rules or etiquette as you said for your simblr posts, do as you like to and as you are comfortable with.

Linking the used CC can actually save you from many wcif questions if you prefer to avoid them, I guess if you're very shy it may be important for you.

No need to ask a creator if they want to be tagged, most creators are thrilled to see their content being used in other people's games, and yes, you may tag creators even if you don't know them personally. 😅 If you're not sure, check their TOU or their blog, a lot of creators mention how they feel about tagging. Plus, even if a creator is annoyed by your tagging (which is very unlikely, but let's pretend) it's their choice just to ignore your post and that's it.

As for tagging posts, it's important to tag your posts according to their content. First of all it's just simply rude to tag your post like 'the sims 3' if it's not from this game or add 'ts4cc' tag to your post if it's not a download post (unless it's a lookbook with the links to the used cc, then it's fine BUT ONLY THEN). Then, if it's an edit you may add more specific tags like 'the sims 4 edit', 'ts4 edit', or if you post a legacy add some tags related to this theme. You may even develop your system of tags to organize everything within your blog. Like you have a specific tag for your edits only, you can put a link to it somewhere on your blog so others when visit your page could click on it and see your other works.

I'd say worry less about such things, just let your creativity flow and start posting, interact with other people, observe how they do things. Before I started posting anything on my own, this blog was also only for CC tracking, but I was lurking around and looked at how people do things around here.

Hope you'll stick around and simblr experience will be only pleasant for you! Feel free send any other question, I'll be glad to help. Have a nice day\night too 🤗💓

OFC YOU CAN HUG THEM!! <3 they love physical affection so they'd gladly hug you LMAO

btw i clicked the link on the picrew you used to make your oc and made mine!

this is how they look like! (kinda, the clothes are a little different!)

I'm also ready to share some info about my oc, their name is rin (not sure what their last name is), they were born in ritou, without a father bc he left their mom. it wasn't too long until their mother passed away. they were the only child and it became pretty lonely for them. they got their vision at 14 when their mother passed, they wanted a pyro vision, but they weren't complaing. (that explains why their 5th attack has their bow infused with pyro). soon at 17 they became an adventurer, and went to the inazuma city, hiding their vision on their back. they soon travelled to liyue at 18, and met hu tao. (rin and hu tao are besties btw) and in the picrew I made was based off a scenario I thought of at 3am, where hu tao was playing with rins hair and made it into pigtails so it'll match hers😭😭 the front hair also looked like that before, but rin made a mistake of letting xingqiu cut their hair, so it's kind of chopped up and uneven LMAOO. they still forgive xingqiu bc he's adorable tho

rin also looks at zhongli as their father figure and looks up to him aswell! rin usually likes to cuddle people a lot because they didn't have much affection as a child, so the traveller usually sees rin cuddling with hu tao on her free time, despite being an adult, they act like a child.

after months of being friends with hu tao and zhongli, they befriend half of liyue, and even go out on adventures with the traveller.

rin is also best friends with paimon.

rin also simps for kazuha and its obvious but no one needs to know that.

for their personality, rin is overall a nice and approachable person. they can get scary if you anger them too much. they don't get angry that easily though, so if you try annoy them, they don't really mind. they're also pretty shameless, so if they say something, they're speaking what the first thing pops up in their mind. you can literally say “I don't like ningguang” and rin will say “in my opinion, shes hot” in front of ningguang.

rin LOVES animals, and they adore liyues dogs. like if they come across an animal, they'll immediately pet them.

if you travel to mondstadt with rin, I headcanon timmies birds will not fly away. if rin steps in front of the birds, the birds won't fly away but make space for rin.

I also hc rin likes timmie and gives him homemade mondstadt hashbrowns :D

rins special dish is probably ricecakes or macaroons!

apologies if there's any spelling mistakes, I'm tired</3

-🥣

yOO Pls Rin is sooo cute!!! I love the backstory / context you came up for this pic of them hahsdkjans <33 And their relationships with everyone is so so so adorable aaAA 💞💞💞

PLS AND THE 'In my opinion, she's hot' when they just say what’s on their mind KJSNDAS I–– Rin i love u 😭💞

Rin rin rin trade me ricecakes or macaroons pls I'll give you so many hugs I swear 😭💞💞

Ahhhhh I'm so sorry if this is a rlly annoying question!! You can ignore me if you want, that's okay. I wanted to ask, how hard was it to take care of your industrial piercing? (I've only had 1 piercing so far and it was a complete pain in the ass to clean and my hair kept getting caught in it :( very painful)

aaah i'm the wrong person to ask about this i have like,, insanely good luck with my piercings they've basically always healed perfectly and rarely get infected and i do NOT take very good care of them

with my industrial i slept on it and didn't clean it everyday and when i did i kept using rubbing alcohol (which you're NOT supposed to do. you should use either salt water or saline solution or just warm water with nonscented soap. alcohol kills the good bacteria along with the bad bacteria and is actually more likely to cause an infection in the long-term bc of this. for the same reason you don't want to OVER-wash a piercing while it's healing. one of my aunts did that when she had a belly button piercing and she told me it oozed for like a year, probably because she cleaned it obsessively like 3 times a day)

honestly cartilage piercings are super dicey and experiences vary really wildly. i was touching and playing with mine basically from the day i got it done and it's never given me any problems but i also know ppl who basically nudged theirs a little too roughly and developed a bump. one of my aunts (different aunt) says her cartilage piercing ached sometimes for like 20 years after she got it done (but she also got a lot of piercings done non-professionally so,,,, don't listen too much to that one)

honestly it comes down a lot to how your body reacts to piercings, but also the circumstances of your piercing. i don't know what piercing you have, but if you had a lot of problems with healing and infections that may be a problem for other piercings you may get. of course, it's also possible that you didn't get a very good piercing or you just didn't take care of it right, i don't know the circumstances

so,,, step 1. first try thinking on how your healing process generally goes, both for the piercing you have and general cuts, scrapes, and bug bites. do you get infections often? how is your general health? are you sick often? these are things that could indicate that you're just infection-prone and it's probably going to be a problem you have to deal with. i'm not telling you whether or not to get more piercings if you are, that's something you need to weigh the cost/benefit analysis of for yourself.

also try to note how you tend to scar. if you tend to get keloids or hypertrophics you're way more likely to get them on any cartilage piercings because they're already a more serious "injury" than plain skin piercings like a lobe or an eyebrow

another thing to look out for is how your body deals with different metals. i've known a lot of ppl who had metal allergies that restricted the kinds of jewelry they can wear. cheap metals can cause them to break out in rashes, and yes get infections more often during healing. generally your piercer should only be using surgical grade steel and/or titanium but it's still something to keep an eye on. think about if you often wear cheap or costume jewelry and how you react, especially if you wear if consistently for a long time. this can apply to things like bracelets and necklaces though cheap metal in your piercing is probably a better indicator bc it does go through your skin in a way i really hope your bracelets don't

then step 2 is make sure, MAKE SURE, that you're going to a good piercer. someone who is a trained professional in a sterile environment using the proper equipment and sanitizing correctly

NEVER go to claire's or piercing pagoda ESPECIALLY for a cartilage piercing

most of my lobe piercings i got done with a sewing needle in my aunt (20 year cartilage pain)'s dining room and even though lobes are an "easy" piercing they took ten times as long and were ten times as painful to do than my industrial, eyebrow, and septum that were done by piercing professionals in a parlor with surgical-grade equipment. my proper-done ones healed a lot easier too, and some of my lobes are crooked which make it kinda hard to put jewelry in and out

so FIND A GOOD PIERCER. A PROFESSIONAL. CERTIFIED.

a good place to start is with the Association of Professional Piercers, who are a health and safety nonprofit dedicated to sharing free information about piercings to make sure everything is safe. parlours and individual piercers can become members by ensuring they meet certain quality standards set by the APP, and they have a directory on their website that will let you look up any members in your area (though just because a piercer isn't in the APP doesn't mean they're not a safe and reliable piercer, it's a voluntary membership)

they also have a lot of information on their website about important safety information, procedures you should be able to see your piercer doing, and information about aftercare

so that's kind of a lot of info

tl;dr : click the APP link and do whatever they say, and know your body and how you react to things

hope that helps!!!

first off all this dude was supposed to go to work but called off cuz he was feeling sick ANYWAY

friend R didn’t confirm w me he wanted to hang till i was already on campus (and an hour before too lyke), but hm partly my fault for agreeing and leading that it would be fine to hang that day on short notice

okay fast track to earlier mans says r u down i say ya im down blah blah then he sends a spotify link and says he has tix to see this artist next week but silly me didn't click the link or look up if the artist was act touring and said coo nice dood will listen to it later! anyway proceeds to tell me he's on his way cue me excited nervous blushing looking forward to it (in an hour ish also i was so hungry, shouldve ate lunch to avoid this coming MESS)

anyway SILLY ME AGAIN i had made plans w another friend S for later lunch/early dinner food and instead of cancelling on one or the other, i keep both hang outs. mind you these r two completely different people. i tell S that i was meeting with R also but forgot to tell R that S was gonna be hanging with us, at least for food. my b

friend gets here, im sitting with a diff friend J and introduce them and they bond over the alchemist since J was reading that okay then S gets here a little later im like omg s <3_<3 and we tell J byeeee time for food

now, friend said he already ate so i assumed he wouldn't eat so i would buy him a drink or something bc i was fs gonna eat i was hungryyy but no this man gets food anyway and enjoys his bowl and im like oh? bc also i knew he probs didnt want to spend money? he mentioned that a couple days ago about saving i was like yeah valid totally b i'm like that too blah blah he gets up at some point to throw his trash away and s asks if we're dating im like babes we just met for the first time in person today after texting/facetiming for a week hahaah B HE ALSO SAYS I HAVE H03S, u r my ho likeeeee

OKAY ANYWAY,.. this is where my biggest mistake was made (maybe)... i ask S what her plans are after food and she says nothing im like oop i look at friend and i'm like idek we have no plans either but im dumb i think we had a d*te and i stupidly go like oh! movies? and then i'm like okay fryft to my place even frikin though i specifically told friend he would not be seeing my apartment day 1 of meet up im so dumb yall 1. i should've told S bye see u next week, 2. that's it i should told her bye but .... bro i panicked i just didnt know how to tell s no i wanna be alone with a boy ugh i cant say no to ppl and deep down i've been wanting to hang w s for minute now

we go back to my place, give them a tour blah blah kinda awkward grrrr im a terrible hostess blah blah yay arrived to my bland apartment <3 friend has not really said a word <3 i feel awful but i didnt know why just yet*

we watch some amazon prime then peaky blinders and not even half way friend is like oki gtg dont wanna get home too late (he seems annoyed lmaoooo) and i walk him down to the train station (s asked if i wanted her to come and walk him down but i was like nah we're cool) anyway walking down im like soooo what'd u wanna know he says well it's too late and in my head im like ? how is it too late anyway fool misses his train he timed it wrong but i walk him over anyway and i think i would've stayed with him till the next train got there but i foolishly left my phone back in my apartment im so DUMB moral of the story our d8 turned into a really awkward 3 person hang out but more awk for him then me and s since we're friends oh also i introduced him to 2 more of my roomies and i feel awful lmao he said he had social anxiety which i should've taken more seriously

fast forward again hanging w S rest of the night ahhhh after friend leaves then shots with roomies after S leaves and boom it's 2 am and i decide to text friend hoping he got home okay THEN I CLICK THE SPOTIFY LINK HE SENT EARLIER THAT DAY b it was .... b this man must've been soooo disappointed LMAO but what were u doing having expectations cmon (cmon by 1d) ugh but he's soooo beautiful

*anyway why i feel awful: he's a brown man, S is a white woman i feel like maybe he thought i didnt trust him and needed a white savior to protect me which isnt true at all? i felt no threat from him, super easy going, we were in public the sun was out everything was fine! i wanted to be alone w him and walk around and talk :( i feel really bad about having S there the whole frickin time im soooo frickinnn pissed ahahaa we watched white chicks LOL anyway he said probably doesnt wanna meet again im like valid sure of course today was .... but i still wanna see him ... but i shouldnt .... we unfollwed eachother n everything soooo basically spirits said no :(

the end until next time maybe this summer #btr adventures lmao iykyk < 3

post remarks of things i know:
