#but their relationship isn’t very negative most of the time and they get along very well

every day i think about how my old psychiatrist (who was notoriously horrible on many levels, to be clear) tried to convince me to stay on the antidepressants i was coming off of when i told her i was starting testosterone because she was convinced that i’d be incapable of handling the “intense mood swings” that she said it would cause if i was unmedicated
mind you, i was coming off of these meds because they were doing absolutely fucking nothing for me and she had fought me on stopping them every step of the way — in her mind, me starting t was the perfect chance to make one final (transphobic) push against my desire to stop putting completely pointless drugs in my body
she consistently referred to hrt as me “going on steroids” and told me with every ounce of condescending concern she could muster that she had never had a patient start t without being on antidepressants (as if i was supposed to see that fact as anything other than further proof that her main goal as a psychiatrist was just to make as much money as possible by pushing meds on people)
i tried to explain to her that countless trans people i’d talked to had said that being on t made them feel more emotionally stable, not less, and that i had already chosen a method of hrt that would minimize hormonal fluctuations as much as possible, but she wouldn’t believe me — there’s no question in my mind that she just saw me as a ~naive little girl who didn’t understand how testosterone could make my life hell~
and of course, my mom jumped on that idea and started telling me about how it’s not that she doesn’t like that i’m trans, it’s just that she’s ~so worried~ about what the ~big bad testosterone~ might to to my ~poor fragile mental health~
and when i started t, i was terrified that they would be proven right
now i’m 5 months on t (and a few months post-ending that doctor-patient relationship as well) and what do you know? my mood is better than ever! my therapist (who has known me far longer and actually cares about my well-being) says she’s never seen me this happy, and that she feels like i’m actually living for the first time! it’s been incredible!
in fact, i’ve come to the realization that i most likely had premenstrual dysphoric disorder before t, and that it was contributing to a huge percentage of my mental breakdowns and suicidal thoughts, so it seems there were hormones causing mood swings that i couldn’t handle without proper treatment after all, but testosterone isn’t the cause of those issues — turns out it’s the treatment i desperately needed to manage them!
and after some research and hearing from other people, i’ve learned that it wasn’t all anecdotal after all, because some studies have actually found evidence to support the idea that testosterone has antidepressant effects — i told my therapist that testosterone felt the way the antidepressants i had been on were supposed to feel, but i had no clue there was science to back that up
so now i’m just left being endlessly furious with the way testosterone is demonized as some horrible poisonous drug that will destroy your mental health along with everything else in your life, because being on it has improved my quality of life exponentially and that alone makes being on it SO worthwhile, but no one ever gets to see that side of being on t because they’re so busy drumming up fear about how it’ll wreck your moods instead
of course, that’s not to say some people don’t experience serious mood swings on t, because i would never deny someone else’s experience with their own body and mind, and i think it’s important that people know those effects are possible when they start t
what i AM saying is that i would guess that if you looked at pure numbers, more people have probably had a really positive experience like mine than a seriously negative one, and it’s very telling that the negative ones are portrayed as a universal part of being on t despite seemingly being a smaller percentage when you actually talk to lots of trans people, while the positive ones are portrayed as a fluke at best and impossible or even deceptive at worst despite being a really common theme in trans people’s accounts of being on t
testosterone is medicine. testosterone is healing.
it doesn’t solve all our problems — i’m certainly far from cured of all my mental health issues — but it sure as hell lightens the load, and i’m sick and tired of people acting like it’s a horrible thing and not the fucking miracle worker that it is for some of us

NOISETTE THEMED DOODLE DUMP ft. cheesecake and the spouses
copious hazel headcanons under the cut because i can’t help myself
first off: her name is Hazel 👍🏻 ik that’s a common one but it’s literally perfect… canon info to me
her favorite thing to do, besides making experimental food, is actually exercising! she’s an incredibly skilled acrobat and stunt artist, so she needs to be fit for that, but she also just enjoys letting the excess energy out bc she gets really cranky otherwise. she’s toned af and could wipe the floor with you - she doesn’t go around picking fights for no good reason, but if she did… heehee
she has such an unending well of passion for all of her interests that some find her to be too much but she dgaf… she’s unabashedly autistic and does NOT care if you don’t want to hear her infodump about obscure cheeseslime genetics, she will do it anyways
i like to think that, although she is very bubbly, she has an insane morbid streak that catches people off guard. she loves talking about anatomy and gross-out subjects to anyone who can stomach it, and cracks the most fucked up jokes - it’s one of the reasons her and noise get along so well. she is thinking about blood and guts because she thinks it’s interesting!!!! she will give you hyperspecific graphic threats of violence if you make her mad!!! teehee!!
i would put her at like… chaotic neutral but leaning towards good. she has an almost scientific fascination with violence and seeing what kinds of stress a body can take, and doesn’t mind watching shit unfold instead of helping… unless something actually super fucked up is going on (like way past canon typical pizza tower violence), she’s not going to bat for you lol she’s gonna grab a camera and clipboard
her interest in anatomy branches out into a love for biology, medicine and health in general - as much as she loves watching her boyfriend beat the shit out of some chump on live tv, she also loves studying how different creatures work and how to treat injuries. she almost became a doctor! but she didn’t like the rigid schedule and pressure, so she fostered her interest in dance and gymnastics, and went into television as a stunt double instead. that’s actually how she met noise! that’s why they look so much alike - she was told to inquire NTV for a job because of the resemblance. noise thought she was so cool she was asked to be his co-star instead, and they’ve been inseparable ever since.
sometimes she gets tired of the noisette persona, but she does genuinely like theo, so it’s hard. she’s been more busy with this NTV gig (that’s looking more like a full blown career) than she would like, so that’s why she opened her cafe - to do something else for once dammit!! she likes weird shit, food included!!!
i have two shipping scenarios i like, so consider these parallel universes - hazel x vigi, and hazel x vigi x noise
if you don’t like negative takes on the noise relationship i’d recommend skipping to 2 ^_^
1. her relationship with noise deteriorates bc noise can’t accept the fact that hazel doesn’t wanna be noisette all the time! they’re so busy, he barely even makes time for her anymore - he barely even tolerates her! it’s not until vigi comes into the picture that she realizes she doesn’t have to deal w that mess. but it sucks cuz noise isn’t just her bf, but also like!!! a big part of her career!!! and she does genuinely love him but he’s just!!! an uncommunicative ass!!! it culminates in hazel leaving him and crashing at vigi’s farm because fuck it, it’s her life she does what she wants. she will kiss the cheese AND rebuild her tv career, on her own terms this time baybee
2. noise and hazel still have that issue but they actually communicate like adults and fix their relationship problems, so none of that shit happens! happy ending! hazel has her own life and theo actually lets his gf know he loves her! woah! enter vigi, in: “we saw you across the bar and we really dig your vibe…” imagining vigi as a third to hazel and theo, completely out of his depth but too bisexual to care, is SO funny to me lol… like hazel and him are probably the only two together at first but over time he and theo warm up to each other more (gay intent) and it’s perfect

Yesssss yandere hetalia!! Can I request yandere Russia
hey! i’m combining this with another request that asked for ivan with an introverted s/o. hope you enjoy nonetheless.
yandere!russia headcanons :
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ivan is a man who contains innumerable facades. Vulnerability is hard to get from him, which is why he is so taken aback when he meets his darling. Anyone special enough to catch his attention and keep it must have some sort of hold over him -- and he cannot have that.
He would initially try to distance himself from you, and then after realizing that does not work, he would try to exercise as much control over the situation as possible.
He takes an almost managerial role, employing the use of strict guidelines and occasional punishments to gain a semblance of control.
Once he acknowledges his feelings towards you he will sit and machinate ways to get you to reciprocate his feelings. He regards you as an object that he needs to get sooner rather than later. He would understand that it might be difficult to get you to come off your own volition, so he is not entirely against using force to get you to be with him should his attempts at courting fail.
Ivan often finds himself exhibiting certain behaviors not because he wants to, but because he thinks that these behaviors are what a normal person would do. This leads him to think that presenting himself in a certain way would make you feel comfortable around him, or win your romantic favor -- in reality, they end up coming off as stilted and strange.
If he ends up entering a long-term relationship with you, he’ll likely stop putting up airs, leaving you interacting with someone much more stoic and withdrawn.
Contrary to popular opinion, he is not really hotheaded or quick to violence, and will not let his true emotions overtake his carefully curated mask very often. He is a quick thinker and will remain efficient under pressure. However, should you do something to upset him, he will act quickly and decisively. He loves you deeply, but to him, to truly love someone is to try and bring the best out of that person. He will do so by whatever means necessary.
That isn’t to say that he’s always cold though. He’s happy to dote on you should he think the situation calls for it.
Ivan, however, is no stranger to betrayal. Should you try to leave, exhibit suspicious behaviors, attempt to undermine his authority, or oppose him politically -- there will be dire consequences.
Unlike other yanderes, he has no qualms about hurting you. Ivan witnessed extreme horrors during his childhood, and as such is desensitized to most violence. He will not harm you unprovoked, but should you test him, you will find out how cold and cruel he truly can be.
A more introverted partner may actually suit the life he has planned out for them. Once he finds love he is likely to whisk his partner off to the countryside for a time, rarely to be seen in public.
In the event of an extended business trip, he may take you along, depending on the location. Like countless things before you, people will try and use you against him. Because of this, he would never expose you to an enemy. Should he have a trip domestically, or somewhere he deems low risk he will take you with him. If not, you are expected to sit content in your idyllic countryside home until the two of you can bask in each other’s company again. 
Ivan is not super controlling, but he does have a set of rules that you are meant to abide by.
He also places importance on appearances, so you would be coached on how to conduct yourself in formal situations so that onlookers would have nothing negative to say about the two of you. That is why he may implement dress codes, or designate certain discussion topics as off-limits.
After sequestering you away in the middle of nowhere, if you perform well enough, he may move back to the city. He can use extreme methods, but he is not a complete monster. On a deep subconscious level, he craves normalcy. So seeing you navigate life around other people but still choosing to come back to him “willingly” may help him feel vaguely fulfilled.
He is the type to allow you to pursue most hobbies, and would not stop you from expressing individuality or possessing a sense of self. He does however want to make sure that you constantly view yourself as not just an individual, but as a part of a unit. With everything you do, there needs to be a consideration of how it’ll affect both of you.
In his more subdued moments, he treasures domesticity and would like to occasionally dote on you. He'll be pleased if you occasionally let him cook for you or pick out your outfits.
On the same token, he wants to feel as though you depend on him. Not enough to where you can’t exist without his constant care, but enough to know you are appreciative of all he does for you, and that you are hesitant to leave him. 
If you follow the rules and do not awaken his feelings of intense paranoia, you can live somewhat normally.

Kinda going off of your whole process behind matchups, but what do you think the ideal personality would be for some of the survivors (Alice, Norton, Eli, Naib, or whoever else you choose!) Like, what would they want/need in a partner? I feel like some of them could work well with a variety of personality types tbh…
Anyways, keep up the good work!
I don't want to give EVERYTHING way 🤭so these are a bit short. I'm also not super familiar with Alice yet, so her's are a bit more superficial. Added Andrew!
Tumblr media
Norton
-HAS to be with someone who respects his alone-time. He does better with someone who’s overall not that clingy, but at the very least you need to be able to let him go when he says he needs space. When he asks for that, it’s largely because he’s nervous about hurting you when he’s not fully in control of his emotions.
-He can’t be with someone rich. If he was, there’s a very good chance he doesn’t have genuine feelings for them. There is a small exception to this in the manor, because it’s something of an equalizer and money doesn’t help anyone here. But outside? Norton (Aus excluded) is always going to be a frugal thrift-er, and he’d be easily annoyed by someone who blows their money like it grows on trees.
-He does better with fellow introverts too. He can do group stuff sometimes, but he prefers intimate, not-noisy environments. He’s spent most of his life alone so big events, public activities, and big social groups just feel foreign to him.
Naib
-The main thing for Naib is you not being a nosey nancy. Especially outside of the manor, he needs a partner who isn’t going to ask questions about what he does for work. He brings home the bacon and that’s got to be enough for you.
-It’s also better for him to be with someone who doesn’t mind his paranoid protectiveness. As much as he wants you to stay out of his business, he wants to be IN yours. Not to be controlling, but so he’s always prepared to come running if something happens. He can live without this trait in a partner, but it will be a constant point of tension if you don’t like it.
-Otherwise, Naib can get along with just about anyone who treats him decently. He sees the appeal in several personality types.
Eli
-Eli also works with many different types of people! He’s a very patient and calm man who makes and effort to understand everyone’s actions and opinions. The only people I straight-up can’t see him being with are those who intentionally try to bring out negative emotions as tests or pranks. He enjoys some light teasing, but if you try to rile him up or make him jealous, he’s just going to disengage from you because that’s blatantly unkind. He wants to foster good-vibes only with his partner.
-He does very much like skinship, though, so it’s best if his partner likes both giving and receiving Physical Touch as a love language.
-He’s a lot more likely to be sweet on someone who’s kind and generous. And he’s very intuitive, so he knows when this is genuine…if you’re faking it to manipulate/get in his good graces.
Alice
-As a journalist, she needs a partner who can keep their mouth shut. Like, you’re more than welcome to gossip TO HER. But she literally pays her bills by being nosey, and exclusivity of information is part of that. So don’t share things you learn from her…but DO share things you learn from others with her.
-She’s brave to a fault. Like Alice sometimes genuinely does not sense danger sometimes, so she would appreciate a partner who looks out for her when she can’t do it herself.
Andrew
-You have to be open-minded and nonjudgemental. He’s been treated poorly most of his life because of how he looks, and if he sees you treating other people with similar backstories well, his opinion of you skyrockets. (even though he won’t make it known for some time.) If you gossip to him about other people’s superficial stuff, kiss your relationship goodbye.
-Does best with someone patient and intuitive. He’s defensive and has an attitude, sometimes even without meaning to. He requires a lot of grace as far as overlooking the shit he says. His verbal communication will improve with time, and he will apologize for any slipups as his trust in you grows, but you have to be able to wait out the road bumps first.
-He also does better with a fellow introvert than an extrovert. For friendships, it doesn’t matter, but for a romantic partner he has more insecurities and concerns about you leaving him for someone else. If you like to spend a lot of time with other people, like being the center of attention, or feed on other’s approval, Andrew will have a harder time reigning in those thoughts that he’s not important to you.

Roleplaying: the greatest callback of them all
Tumblr media
The incredible scene that ends Dangerous Romance builds on a pattern that we’ve seen play out between Kang and Sailom since episode one. Kang and Sailom regularly adopt different roles and personas with each other. And this is usually led by Sailom — who often is a more flirty and confident version of himself when he does so.
In the bullying era, here are a few of these scenarios:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you watch back — particularly the Tutor Sailom scenes — Sailom’s entire demeanor is different. He even has a dedicated tutor voice.
And Kang seems to fundamentally understand that adopting a role brings comfort to Sailom. Look at how get gets Sailom to snap out of his trauma stare.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
When they become friends, this continues. In the scenes below (and many more!), Sailom is playing “Tutor Sailom”. It’s more than just tutoring. He’s cockier. He once again pulls out a dedicated voice.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Most of their adventure in episode 3 involves various levels of role playing (they are in costumes! They speak another language!). And this is when they start to grow close and Kang opens up for the first time:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I’m already scared I’m going to run out of images so I won’t put the alley kiss but I would argue that should count!)
Tumblr media
This line, which we have gotten many a callback to, is the first time we’ve had Kang try to initiate a scene between them. Sailom just isn’t willing to play along (until later when he can use it to torture Kang).
Tumblr media
Once they admit their feelings they only get more into it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
They have fun with the wind/windmill dynamic.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kang in particular starts using roles to flirt with Sailom or get Sailom to go along with things he might not otherwise. He seems to sense that Sailom feels more comfortable playing someone else sometimes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They start using these roles to explore the financial difference between them and their feelings for each other. In fact, they make love for the very first time on the heels of fantasy scenario.
Tumblr media
And Sailom when looking to pamper Kang the morning after, plays the role of a hotel staffer offering a “special room service”.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even here they are role playing. They are going through the scenario of Kang buying him because they both desperately want to be touching each other and don’t think they can otherwise. Plus, it briefly offers them a bit of a shield against all of their swirling hurt and fear and grief.
So all this said, the absolute best conclusion for me of their story was them getting to fully play out roles and be 100% on the same page.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In this part they get to be happy and in love and doing something they both genuinely enjoy while also working through some of their past hurt and regret in a space that is safe for them — one that offers them separation from themselves in case negative feelings do come out.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
As they reenact some of their worst moments together, this time it is fully consensual and rooted in their trust for each other. Together, they are making a new memory to erase the bad.
Tumblr media
Kang and Sailom have consistently used roleplaying as a tool in their relationship - it’s a space where Sailom in particular feels more confident and more comfortable sharing his feelings (and Kang loves making Sailom happy).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These two boys are only going to keep role playing in the years to come. And if they’re this good at 18, I can only imagine how much better they get with time.

kentaro sakaguchi mini personality reading
positives + negatives edition
Tumblr media
this reading is part of a paid commision, thank you so much for trusting in me! <3 celebrity commissions • personal commissions
+ positives
he is divinely guided. he’s always looking to do something new and pushes himself outside his comfort zone, he doesn’t want to be stagnant and bored and doing the some thing. he’s the type to work hard AND play hard, when he cares about something he takes it seriously but he also knows how to have fun and lets himself indulge in his interests. he’s there for people during bad times as well as good times, he’s very devoted to his loved ones and can push himself hard to be there for them even if it’s difficult or exhausting. but he’s also fun to be around, and if you know him you’d want to invite him to all of your parties and you’d want him there to help you celebrate your wins. he isn’t the type to gatekeep, he wants to help other people and share his knowledge. he’s good at getting along with people, but he’s also super serious and businesslike, he gets stuff done efficiently (almost like he can be good cop and bad cop vibe). he’s good at building the right connections. he’s quite generous and spoils people he loves with his money. he’s also pretty sexual, in a positive way, in a sense that he’s really respectful to and appreciates his partners. he’s pretty confident in himself and his abilities for the most part (probably because he feels guided). he very takes good care of himself (probably always smells good for example).
- negatives
not very independent and relies on other people to help him achieve goals (he uses his connections and social skills to advance him). he wants to be the center of attention and can be too fun-loving to achieve that (like he takes jokes way too far, can get too rowdy or perhaps is even into practical jokes). has trouble with being an extreme person in general, he works hard and plays hard, but does both to the extreme and can oscillate (he doesn’t know what a happy medium really is). he actually goes over the top a lot in all ways - takes jokes too far, when he overworks himself, he doesn’t sleep, when he gets angry he gets really angry (can have anger problems in general) he can be pretty overindulgent (could get drunk a lot for example). doesn’t take care of himself well (health wise, but also mentally). he can easily find himself in toxic relationships and he tends to be way too intense in his romantic connections (he can also enter sexual and romantic relationships too quickly, easily pulled in by looks and flirting). he’s judgmental, bigoted and can have a hard time being open minded. he doesn’t compromise easily. he’s impulsive, doesn’t think about the consequences of his actions and also doesn’t learn from past mistakes. he doesn’t know how to take blame for his wrongdoings (there’s people he’s hurt and he still can’t see how even a small part of it is his fault, can in fact even blame the other person intensely). he can lie a lot and keep harmful secrets. he’s quite arrogant and even tends to overestimate his importance in other people’s lives (can use his status to hold it over people too).

Sdv Bachelor/ettes as Doctor Who Companions
A/N: because the specials are coming out soon(the first episode of the three part special is coming out tomorrow I’m so excited I missed ten and Donna) I wanted to combine my two prominent special interests. Keep in mind gender has nothing to do with this, and it’ll be nuwho focused because I have never watched classic who except for some compilations that were chaotic.
Tw:maybe some cursing? Some spoilers but like the show and episodes have been out for so long idk what to tell you
Wc: idk it’s headcanons. I wanna make it at least 3 or 4 or each. So that times all 12???
Sdv Masterlist
Sebastian
Nardole
I KNOW I KNOW
Starting off chaotically
It was SUPER HARD to figure out who he fits
Like genuinely so hard it took me SO LONG
But I think he does fit Nardole in the way that both of them are loyal to their friends and very no nonsense when it comes to their responsibilities
Like I know that Seb seems antisocial in the game but like it’s mostly when he needs to get work done (which is always) which seems to me more like he needs to get his shit done in order to do anything else his responsibilities come first
Nardole is the same in that yes he loves his friends but shit needs to get done and that’s what’s important first, no distractions, no going off the beaten path, just do what needs to be done
Also Nardole seems passive he isn’t very submissive actually. Like yeah he gets scared but like Nardole is good at taking charge when he needs to
Sebastian is the same he seems quiet and submissive when in actuality he just doesn’t take charge unless he has to
Also Nardole isn’t anything more than a platonic relationship and I think that despite how attractive Sebastian is, he would probably prefer things to stay on the platonic side of things rather than fuck everything up with romance
Also would think it would be cool to be a humanoid cyborg thing
Sam
Bill Potts
I feel like Bill was a funny companion and her personality fits Sam
I mean they both seem chill and excitable
And both are very in tune to their emotions and able to understand what other people are feeling
I also think that Sam would be a more platonic companion rather than romantic.
Also I do think in serious times that Sam could be a little intimidating.
Both are extremely wrong and loving towards those they view as friends
And I feel like both are easy to get along with.
Also would be both comic relief and exposition
Also Bill is very inquisitive and curious and very smart
And I feel like that describes Sam somewhat with the curiosity
I feel like he would ask so many questions that everyone around him would be annoyed even though he’s doing it to gain an understanding of what is happening around him.
Also would gain crushes like Bill did ngl
Shane
Donna Noble
NOW LISTEN
Both of these people have very horrible self esteem issues
Like both feel a negative way about themselves
Think they’re unimportant and stupid that they’re just some person that exists and that they aren’t special at all
I think the main difference between them is that Donna carries herself differently
She will scream at the world to get it to listen to her, Shane just accepts that no one cares to listen to him and it makes him spiral more
Like Donna speaks about herself in a very sad way through her episodes
And so does Shane. Most of his conversations are just insulting to him and downplaying how much he means to anyone in general
Donna saved the doctors life by being there
And in a way Shane saved Jas’ life by being alive because he is her guardian even though she stays with Marnie in the game
He is her literal guardian
Without him who k owns where she would’ve ended up?
Also both are funny
I think Shane would be an extremely funny companion
Harvey
Graham O’Brian
Silly goofy old man
Is absolutely confused
Like I know Harvey is a doctor and all
But dude would be absolutely lost in every situation if it isn’t medical related.
I wanted to cast him as Martha but I don’t think he fits her very well
Like the only thing he has in common with her is the doctor thing
Like is he capable of a lot?
Yes
Can he save people?
Yes
But I do not think he could go through the year that never was like Martha did
This is why I think he’s similar to Graham
The old man is very protecting and loving and the main point is even though he’s terrified I don’t think Graham ever refuses to try to save anyone
And even if he did it was in a very sad way like he thought there is no way to save them.
I think Harvey would be similar
Terrified but ready to help
Elliott
Jack Harkness
Tell me I’m wrong bc I’m not
You can argue with a wall
I swear Elliott fits this role too well
Not that he’s a whore(affectionate) like Jack
But that he would use his looks and verbal prowess to seduce people for absolutely no reason
Literally him saying hi is him flirting
Would’ve flirted with EVERY alien he came across I know he would
Would recite a poem to them about how beautiful they are
Cause them to fall in love
Them be like heheh I’m cool right? I’m so sexy :)
Also despite all of that Jack is a very caring and protective character in my opinion
Like yeah he jokes a lot and is a very unserious person
But he is good hearted and tries hard to help
Like who do you know that is scared of death that would use the ability to come back just to help save other people
Especially if they’re unsure if that ability will last forever or not
Like I think Elliott would be similar
Alex
Ryan Sinclair
I think there is something about guys specifically that lose their mothers that act similarly
Like they both seem closed off to people and use either humor or being standoffish to keep from actually showing their feelings
And when they feel their feelings it’s in an angry and unfair type of way
Also Ryan loved his grandmother more than anything having being raised by her(I think?)
And Alex has been being raised by his grandparents and I do like to think that he is a grandma’s boy even though he does love his grandfather as well
I also think he would be the one to ask how people are doing on the side.
Like without anyone noticing he would be like “hey you okay?”
Is actually super sweet when he works through his insecurities and becomes one of the best companions due to his compassion grounding the doctor
Like is super sweet during the later half of his season or maybe the second season he’s in.
Maru
Yasmin Khan
I think that Maru fits Yaz well
It took me a minute to decide but when I went back to read the wiki I realized that they are very similar
Both are very ambitious and want to be the best in their fields
And both love to learn and are naturally curious
Both are very focused on their jobs and in Maru’s case she’s very focused on her work in science
Maru doesn’t really have friends or relationships thanks to (Demetrius) her focusing on her work and Yaz is the same, never bringing friends home or anything because she’s focused on growing and becoming head of the police force.
I also think Maru would be very in love with traveling with the doctor and the doctor themself
Maru already likes robotics and science in general, traveling throughout time and space would be perfect for her
She would fall in love with the doctor and want to travel forever
I also think that due to her having feelings she would grow in confidence and in protectiveness
Would shove the Master to the ground in anger because wtf do you think you’re doing?
After returning home would probably be depressed and lost without the person she thought she would be with forever
Abigail
Amy Pond no doubt about it
I think they both have the same level of chaos and love of adventure
Like Amy is a very first girl that is sort of sensitive and hides it behind her confident and toughness
I can see Abigail being similar
All they want is to have adventure and not be forced into some role they are supposed to play
I can see Abigail being the girl who waited
Out of the characters she would be the one to survive so long in a foreign place and waiting the entire time
Only to have rescue come when she finally lost hope so she’s pissed off at them and hurt but not really wanting to show it because showing it is weakness.
Like Amy I think she would have a crush on the doctor for like a second because who wouldn’t when being offered the chance to explore the universe by the most mysterious person you’ve ever met
But that crush would go away quickly and would be boiled down to a platonic relationship.
Leah
Martha Jones
Now listen
She and Martha are similar personality wise instead of like oh they both have the same career or something
Like I feel like out of all the bachelor(ettes) that she would be the one to survive the year that never was
Like I think she is a lot stronger than people think she is
And she would be the one I can see having a crush on the doctor but not letting it get in the way of doing what she needs to do
Also would leave a toxic situation quite easily
And by easily I mean it would take a lot of strength but she does it beautifully
She did it before when leaving her ex to go to Pelican Town and she would be strong enough to leave the doctor.
Both are very headstrong and firm in their beliefs
And I do think Leah has a temper, she doesn’t prefer to use violence but will if she has to.
Being with the doctor only makes her stronger and when she leaves she uses her knowledge to help
Penny
Rose Tyler
Not just because they both were raised only by their moms
I think that Penny has the Rose quality about her when it comes to romance. Like I could easily see her being the love interest for the Doctor, and being the one they get torn from in the end.
And not to be a hater but I can totally see myself getting annoyed at her the more the romance grows
Because Ten and Rose started to become annoying when the romance became sort of the focus (yes I am a nine and rose enjoyer)
Like them Penny and her doctor would get so “obsessed” for each other that they start to not see the importance and impact of what they’re doing.
Like yes traveling through space and time is a silly goofy thing but at the same time you’re messing with peoples lives. Like even if you’re saving them, you’re still messing with them and it needs to be taken seriously instead of thought of as dates and “fun”
But on the cuter side I can see her being the type of person to slowly and quietly make her way into someone’s heart and make them remember that life is worth living.
Emily
River Song
She has that air of weirdness about her like River does
Like isn’t around all the time
And out of everyone I think Emily would be the one to meet the doctor out of order.
Like tell me I’m wrong
Out of everyone her timeline would be the one that’s backwards
And while I don’t think Emily has the violent streak in her I do think she would be part time lord like River is
Also I think she could be the one to get married
Both are strong and smart and knows what they know and don’t need anyone to help or tell them different because it’s not going to change their minds at all
Like yes she knows what she’s doing is unconventional but it’s what she’s doing and she’s almost 100 percent sure that it’s going to work so back off
Very confident
Just very amazing women
Haley
Clara Oswald
Because I think Clara and her are similar
Both are fiery and stubborn
Would be the one the doctor gains feelings for after somewhat getting over Rose
Like she’s pretty and strong and doesn’t take any shit
Also would be the one to somewhat become like the doctor but still not act like they’re a god
Also would be funny in certain circumstances like if she needed to act like the doctor who read the fuck out of them
Would be the one to call people out and do what needs to be done
I can also see her being extremely hurt if something happens to someone she loves and she becomes an absolute bitch while she’s hurt
Realizes she’s in the wrong but like she’s HURT
Would also steal the Tardis and go on her own adventures
Added headcanon that she would take pictures of every place they visit

How You View Them: Wheel of Fortune Rx, X of Cups, Death, II of Swords
How They View You: VIII of Cups Rx, VIII of Swords Rx, Ace of Swords, Ace of Pentacles Rx
You view your future spouse as someone who tends to attract bad luck but that’s mainly due to that hesitation. They can be a bit of a ‘sourpuss’ is what I’m getting, because they get a bit stuck on the fact that these things happen to them, and either forget how it got to that point or the blessings in disguise that come from it. It’s not that they’re indecisive, but they can overthink or get cold feet when it’s time to sign on the dotted line, if I were to put it in another way. They start to wonder about the what-ifs and if there are any other paths or what the negative possibilities of their choices are, so then they get a little frozen. There are moments where they might make a rash decision due to an adrenaline rush, but those moments are very rare, and probably due to feeling very passionate about a project or issue. Either way, you see them dealing with their setbacks and troubles beautifully. Despite them mulling over their issues, you see them learning and growing consistently, and never being fooled by the same trick twice. I’m getting the imagery of someone looking through a photo album and every picture of them is different, like they’re going through different phases every five years or so? That’s how your future spouse is but it’s more internally – emotionally, spiritually, or mentally. Due to this, I believe you think they make a perfect partner and parent. They cover or soothe some fears you have, and some insecurities you have about the big scary world of parenting isn’t so bad with them there by your side. They also feel very sweet on your side. Like the type to either have a child who’s a ‘Daddy’s Girl / Momma’s Boy’ or struggle to punish their kid. I’ve been watching Everybody Hates Chris lately and I’m thinking of the scenes where right before Julius has to talk to his kids, he goes through like four stages of grief before he pulls himself together lol, it’s cute.
On the flip side, your FS views you as elusive? Hehe I love when this happens. I’ve been ignoring the music for the most part but Never Close Our Eyes by Adam Lambert came on and I wanted to check it immediately and this lyric yelled at me: ‘It's so hard to think this could fade away, but what goes up must come down’. Which, along with the chorus, sums it up I think. They see you as someone who is a breath of fresh air in a way. You feel very fast over here. It quite literally feels like air blowing through my fingers. They see you as someone who has witty thoughts and can be charming in quick bursts, like someone who drops a corny joke out of the blue, riding off of someone else’s story. However behind all of that, they feel like you’re about to slip away from them at the same time? It’s not necessarily like you’re not relationship material, but they’re worried about if they commit, will they get hurt (their overthinking). You’re someone who they believe has been able to free themselves from a lot of heartache thanks to past beliefs or relationships, but you also don’t want to put yourself back out there and risk hurting yourself again. So it’s like you’re there but you’re not fully there / opening yourself up. Might be a Scorpio – Gemini dynamic lmao. They want to be there for you to help you actually absolve the root of your worries because while you seem to have moved on, there are still some small things that will trigger that worry for you which they notice (they’re pretty observant). Now Every Heart by BoA is playing, you may look up the lyric translation. I think the whole song resonates.

Your Favorite Traits of Your FS: The Hierophant, Ace of Swords, II of Swords, V of Pentacles Rx, Queen of Swords, The Antelope and Wheat Rx
Your FS’ Favorite Traits of You: The Hanged Man, The Devil, VII of Wands, IX of Wands, The Bear and Cedar Rx
**Quickly. Animal by Neon Trees and then Super Freak by Rick James played while I was shuffling. Anyway.
Your favorite traits are pretty funny. I think I mentioned it before, but your FS seems to ground you and make you feel safe in a way. Right here it seems to be that they take the lead in some way and make you feel comforted when you don’t necessarily feel like being ‘the adult’ in a situation. At the same time, in areas where they’re not so strong, that’s where you can come in to boost them up and act like a shoulder for them to lean on – so you like how balanced the relationship is overall, in a sense. You like that while your FS is very traditional, they’re not afraid to communicate and ask you for help. To let you know that they’re struggling and your advice or time would be really nice. Also, when mentioning traditional, I don’t really see them being strictly traditional. They have the guidelines of ‘okay we have the commitment, we have someone who will mainly look after the ‘kids’ per say, we have someone who is the main breadwinner’ etcetc, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be exactly those things, they just need the guidelines – the structure so they know they can fall back onto something. Kids can be pets, there can be someone who mainly looks after the kids but they still have a side or main job, maybe they just chose to. It’ll be different depending on the relationship. You really appreciate that they stress the importance of communication as well. I have to imagine that this person either has a bad work-life balance or is too much in their head, because they might need a lot of friends or family to remind them to take a break. However, because they always have this front of being put together, it’s nice to know that they’re not afraid to show this other side of themselves either. They also don’t put up with any bullshit either, and that includes you I believe. If there is an issue within the relationship or they’re bothered by something, they won’t just sulk over it without talking to you, and you really appreciate that.
On the flip side, your FS really appreciates your drive. You seem unstoppable to them; whether that’s a good thing or a bad thing is up to the situation at hand. The Devil is represented by the story of a snake that is hoarding gold that it doesn’t need, but it’s going to harm anyone who tries to take it. Mesh that with the seven of wands that’s represented by John Henry, and the nine of wands which is a girl dealing with baba yaga; your FS views you as a person who is very defensive of themselves and this connection overall. They appreciate the fact that while you fight for what you believe in, you know when to protect yourself from things or people that don’t serve you. The healing might need work, or they might’ve met you at a time while you were in the middle of healing deep wounds. However you’re coming off as very fiery or airy to them, but it’s attractive to them nonetheless. I think a small worry for them throughout this entire piece is that they might want to remind you to slow down and take care of yourself because I keep hearing this and currently Here We Go Again by Paramore is playing. They like that you’re unrelenting of the space that you’ve acquired, but I keep wanting to include your relationship as well. I don’t believe that it’s in danger or anything, but it’s included with you having to struggle with your personal happiness being denied and you finally have something good so you don’t want to even bother with people who won’t be happy for you. Honestly this was pretty straight-forward, I think they might speak more in the next section, but they’re really proud of you and it’s more of a concern than anything.

Your Least Favorite Traits of Your FS: Page of Cups Rx, Wheel of Fortune Rx, The Magician, Knight of Swords, Distortion Rx
Your FS’ Least Favorite Traits of You: King of Wands Rx, Queen of Pentacles Rx, Ten of Cups, Ace of Pentacles, The Feeding Rx
Your message is. Interesting. I’m going to explain and sum things up at the end of these. You don’t like how logical and dry your FS can get. There isn’t a lot of emotion or passion here, and when there is, it can come off as immature or irrational to you. Like you’re not understanding where the outbursts are coming from, and to you it seems a bit unfair or ‘unlucky’. Honestly with this imagery, it kind of feels like you’re the woman on the wheel and they’re throwing all of the weapons at you, but the weapons are their insults or accusations. So to you it seems like they’re hot and cold, they seem okay and loving one day but the next day they can be really cold and like they’re shrugging you off. It can also feel like they’re watching you like a hawk and toying with your emotions at times.
Now your FS feels like you’re not trying hard enough in the connection. I’m not going to lie, these aren’t very pretty cards, but this deck can be exaggerative. Both the court cards here look like they’re scheming, and the king has a mask on. They don’t like the sides of you that can come off as domineering, and only use people for your benefits and when they ask for things in return or they’re starting to bother you, you start to get annoyed and try to ghost them. They feel as if all of their actions and love is not being reciprocated or wasted – it’s draining them at the end of the day. When you look at the ten of cups, it starts off full but it can’t make it down to the bottom few, one barely has any on it. Plus with the ace, they feel like you present empty promises at times (the hand is presenting a foundation sure, but it’s not connected to the rest of the body)
What I believe is happening here is quite literally just a miscommunication, I don’t think it’s this heavy lmao. Either this is someone with a false start, or you will struggle a bit in the beginning. There’s a lot of you dealing with your own healing, so I doubt you will be too focused on anything regarding love really, meanwhile this other person seems to care for you a lot but their way of wanting to help seems to be…well, love. So this issue here is that someone feels like they’re being taken advantage of but that’s not what’s happening. It might have to deal with former past connections on your FS’ side and their worry that it’s happening again. The Distortion card upright deals with mood swings, and reversed it means seeing things clearly or sound judgement. So I believe that your FS is just very anxious and worried that this connection is a repeat of past issues, but it’s not. You are worried about healing, and you’re worried about the same thing but in a different sense. You guys are dancing the same dance but different versions with different steps is all. Communication is definitely recommended but I’m not too worried about it <3
Before starting this pile I wanted to listen to a mix based around Sub Urban songs, and most of them have a grunge, dark feeling to them. The lyrics themselves aren’t necessarily always dark though, they can be quite fun or eccentric, even outside of Sub Urban. I think this is a connection that’s going to be quite in your face and flushes out emotions that you need to get rid of, or if you’re not careful or have good boundaries, can feel like Bandit by Sub Urban.

How You View Them: The Tower, Death, King of Swords, VII of Cups
How They View You: The High Priestess Rx, X of Swords Rx, IV of Swords Rx, IX of Pentacles
Your FS leaves an impact on you, way after your first meeting. The End Is Where We Begin is playing and all the lines like ‘I'm an alien' cause I'm not of this world’ give off the energy of your FS. I think there will be moments where you wake up and just stare at them like ‘yeah, I’m glad I chose you’. The moment you saw them you were sure they were the one. It’s not necessarily the whole inner knowing thing, but it’s how they hold themselves. It’s a quiet confidence and how they can command a room, even if they’re not doing anything. They can seem a bit larger than life and also a bit nit-picky because I’ve been bothered by something else for the past fifteen minutes when I’ve been trying to focus, and I’ve noticed that the King of Swords seems waaaay bigger than the other objects in his card. Plus Death is above everyone else in their card. They seem to not be a person of many words, and it’s more like their actions is what you notice the most about them, or that’s what leaves the strongest impression on you and that’s what wants to come through. An interesting thing is that in The Tower card it seems like they are the ones throwing these people out, and it’s not necessarily their energy. You view them as someone to not be crossed. Your FS views you as someone very gentle and soft. Honestly, ‘a catch’ was one of the first lines that came through my mind. I think a piece of them sees you as disconnected from your higher self or maybe religion, if they’re religious? You’re operating more from a physical / material point of view in their eyes. They see that you have a lot of material assets (I hear rewards or profits, things to be proud of it doesn’t have to necessarily present itself as actual money), but you keep it protected. Also just now processing that Bad Girls by M.I.A was playing as I was trying to break down this card. So to them you seem very calm and mature and handle yourself well in those aspects. I want to get into these swords cards because they seem interesting. They came out right after the other so it’s like your FS will take notice of you knowing when and how long you need to heal. You are unapologetic of it and when the time is ready you’ll ‘remove the swords’, but you’ll always be ready to run back into hiding if you need more time to tend to your wounds. So, if I can step in really quick, they believe that you are out of sync with your higher self or not fully in tune with spirit. Or definitely more so you have a weaker bond with faith because you’re well aware of your emotional or spiritual needs to make sure you’re functioning well with others. So like, you’re not in tune but you’re in tune.

Your Favorite Traits of Your FS: The Devil, Death, IX of Swords Rx, II of Wands, II of Pentacles, The Salamander and Black Pepper
Your FS’ Favorite Traits of You: King of Pentacles, VIII of Swords, The Hermit Rx, The Chariot Rx, IX of Cups Rx, The Coyote and Datura
You like that your FS doesn’t agonize over making decisions. They set their mind on a goal and they go achieve it. Despite the intensity that I mentioned earlier (which I’m not ignoring, you definitely like that about your FS), there is a gentleness and slight silliness to your FS. It’s one of those things where it’s only brought out in quiet moments with you, and if you have pets, plants or children, with them as well. Even though they have a card representing Scorpio and Capricorn here, they don’t feel the need to have control all the time. They can be flexible and they’ve learnt to go with the flow over the course of time. You also really appreciate them making time for you, or working you into their schedule. They might be very busy, or in the midst of a major life change? However they still manage to make sure they have time to call, text, or visit you. I’m getting visit because of this imagery on the two of wands here. There’s a small message of not being able to get anything past your FS either. The story with Death is kind of dark, but I’m getting this picture quite literally lmao. Like if their kid attempted to stay up to play their nintendo 3DS, it wasn’t happening. That also makes for a great surprise event planner though so hey, but you’d know that in due time. Plus, the obvious or maybe not so obvious message, they’re probably hot and make you hot (some would say flaming). So this is a really weird message, but your FS likes the fact that you’re never happy with what you have due to the fact that it motivates you? Like you could have the best car or the best designer clothes but still feel like that’s not enough and decide to keep working your ass off, leading to this king of pentacles. They like the fact that you want to break the glass ceiling and you don’t want to get comfortable or be settled with your position. They also like that you’re kind of like them in a sense that you’re okay with diverting from the original plan. You do definitely have a more structured life I believe, and you prefer to stick to it, but you’re not opposed to trying something new and seeing what happens. Letting the wind take you where it will. Another thing is, you’re authentic with them. The nine of cups is the story of Tàj al-Mulúk and the Princess Dunyà (summed up; how the guy dressed up and proceeded to be someone who the girl would want to be with), and the eight of swords is the tale about Donkeyskin. With them, there is no mask and there is no pretending, you’re who you say you are and that’s the end of the story – they appreciate that. Another thing about the eight of swords, they like that you put yourself there, in a way. You only put yourself there to contemplate your next move and when you’re ready you step back out. It’s sort of the same as when you’re ready to come back out and socialize after healing. It’s also a piece of you being able to tell a snake from a snake charmer. You don’t let people in so easily and they pick up on why you do that.

Your Least Favorite Traits of Your FS: V of Wands Rx, IX of Wands Rx, The Fool, X of Wands Rx, The Plaything Rx
Your FS’ Least Favorite Traits of You: VIII of Wands Rx, IV of Wands, VII of Swords, The Lovers, The Viewing
I’m sorry this is so funny, AND ANIMALS BY MAROON 5 IS PLAYING Pile two you’re going to try and get underneath your FS’ skin and they’re going to ignore you every single time, and in turn it’s going to piss you off. All the imagery gives me someone who is trying to be lured in or is being hunted on your end, but on their end they have knowledge from all over the world or well beyond their years so there’s no way you can overcome them. They are not playing your games and they’re not even matching your energy. It’s not like you guys are arguing but it’s more like teasing or seducing if their side is anything to go off of. The thing with the fool is that whenever they bite back with whatever is going on here, it’s always very witty and something that catches you off guard. It’s also like you’re the big monsters in the back while your FS is the girl running through the woods here. Also with Plaything, it’s like you want them to just get caught one time. Take the bait one time. But they don’t. And it’s annoying as hell.
Your FS on the other hand is doing this for a reason. There might be a gap in experience or age*, but they want to take care of this relationship and also you. Honestly looking back, for some of you this might be LGBT, difference in culture, status if their family deems it important – because The Viewing talks about ‘an irreversible outcome’ and I’m thinking about Simple and Clean by Utada Hikaru. The line ‘ When we are older, you'll understand what I meant when I said, "No, I don't think life is quite that simple" ’, is ringing in my head. If that’s not the case, then it could definitely just be inexperience within relationships and you’re looking at everything through rose colored glasses and they’re worried that this’ll ruin a really good thing. They see you as romanticizing a lot of things that can hurt you or them (depending on who is coming from the more judgmental society, unless you both are). Plus with the imagery within the lovers alongside that message of the viewing, yeah. They also really don’t like all the tricks and cheap shots you try and take to get them to go along with whatever you want to go in regards to this. It’s all out of love, truly. Also I Love You 3000 by Stephanie Peotri is playing and I think that’s from them. ‘No spoilers please’
*I don’t know why I keep feeling the need to add this, even after a night’s rest but age gap between two consenting adults. No funny business.

Pile Three
Tumblr media
How You View Them: X of Pentacles Rx, IV of Pentacles Rx, VII of Wands, Ace of Cups
How They View You: VII of Cups, The Emperor, V of Cups Rx, Queen of Swords Rx
Your FS comes off as quite defensive to you. Closed off as well, because I’m struggling to get a good grasp on these cards for some reason. I’m believing it’s more like you see them as hard to read at times. They present the same energy but slightly different over the course of different weeks? Like there will be different levels of response to the same triggers so you can pinpoint what’s happening but not be quite sure of how to approach or soothe them sometimes. They present some dysfunction within their family, but it’s one of those situations where you show up to family events or holidays that celebrate family — just to get it over with or because it’s nice — and then you won’t really see or hear from them much again. They also might have a struggle with maintaining their finances? It’s not that they’re an over spender but it’s little things that they either don’t care for a savings account, or they have a vice grip on what’s in their account so they complain about any type of ‘expensive’ purchase, looking over all avenues before deciding on what to buy, those things. They’re very protective over what’s theirs, and that includes you (so you might have to get on them about that terminology which I think I see a little on their side). Despite all of that you do see them as someone who does have emotions and care to offer, it’s in a sweet way. Kind of naïve, for some reason? When it comes to revealing sensitive sides of themselves they can be kind of sensitive or childlike, which you think balances out all of the above. Meanwhile your FS’ side is much easier to comprehend and views you to be kind of intense. Besides the emperor and the queen, I’m seeing the middle chalice within the seven of cups. If you’re a gamer, you know how when you unlock an underground opening and it slowly raises up to ominous music? That’s what it seems like to me. I’m mainly just getting that you’re an equal match to your FS. You have no problem putting them in their place. There is some inner turmoil or sadness that seems to be making it’s way to the surface at times, or maybe you just seem to have an appearance that looks sad (glossy eyes, downturned lips, etc). I think it has to do with the eyes because the hill in the background looks like an eye to me when I look somewhere else and it distracts me. Either way, they happen to discover different facets of your personality over the course of the relationship and it fascinates them sometimes, but they do think you can be a little harsh or bossy with them sometimes. You know what you like and don’t like, but even if it’s in a joking way, they can get hurt by your comments or nitpicking? In their eyes. Though this does seem to be a person who tends to go for people who are more in control than them, or are in their power. And Feeling Myself by Nicki Minaj & Beyoncé just started playing, yup.

Your Favorite Traits of Your FS: The Empress, Page of Pentacles, VIII of Wands, II of Wands, The Cat and Lavender Rx
Your FS’ Favorite Traits of You: The Chariot Rx, Knight of Swords Rx, VII of Pentacles, Ace of Pentacles, The Fox and Ivy
Yeah this is displaying the very muted duality your FS holds, but it also works very well together which is why I called it a muted duality. You like that on one hand your FS can be very caring and sweet towards you. They present themselves as very gentle and calming in private manners. They also can be very loyal and somewhat steadfast? It’s like when you get a new plant so you’re dedicated to learning its favorite nutrients, what time of day it prefers, the sunlight it wants, its quirks — all of that. That’s what you like about them, a very dedicated sweet lover. On the other hand, they can be very instinctual and sure of themselves. This is a case where I don’t believe they’re aware that they’re listening to their intuition but it’s like when you’re looking at crystals or feeling something out and you just know it’s the right one for you. That’s how they make decisions and they do it so boldly, so sure of themselves, you really admire that about them. I can’t say whether or not they always make the right choice, but the confidence that they have when making these choices is mighty attractive to you. They’re also someone to come quick to your aid or defense if you need or request it. I’m getting the image of someone rushing into the room with like four care packages all catered to different scenarios haha. Your FS wanted to send a message while I was writing your passage I guess, but Think by Aretha Franklin was playing lmao, staring at that knight of swords. Anyway, I stand by what I said earlier. They can be a little sensitive to your comments, but they’re not opposed to a little friction. They do find your combative attitude attractive, even if it’s against them at times. The main thing here though is the fact that you’re able to get the most out of life. You are the phrase ‘one man’s trash is another man’s treasure’. You don’t waste any opportunity that’s given to you and you try to see how far you can run with it. You also don’t give up on things (or connections I guess, in this sense). You will sit with your projects, friends, struggling ideas, and see what will come of them after some tender love and care. The only thing that will make you abandon it is if the object of attention doesn’t want to ‘put in’ the same effort. You are willing to compromise and roll with the punches as long as they don’t make you sacrifice anything at your core. Your FS really loves that about you.

Your Least Favorite Traits of Your FS: The Chariot Rx, Page of Pentacles, Knight of Wands Rx, IV of Wands, Envy Rx
Your FS’ Least Favorite Traits of You: IX of Cups Rx, III of Wands, The Devil, Death, Blessings
**LOL, not the both of you going ‘AHT, let me correct you real quick’ omg. Also, getting the chariot multiple times, someone has to have cancer placements in this connection. I’m getting specifically cancer venus or mars for some reason and I’m feeling like it’s them.
You can get annoyed with the complacency your FS holds. This loops all the way back to holding onto what they have and never looking for anything else, generally. It’s like you operate from this Envy card upright, while they move in the reverse. You are always trying to see what you can get out of things, to your detriment sometimes but we’ll get to that, and they don’t bother to even see if there’s more to things sometimes. It’s like if they have a car that can go on auto-pilot; they’d turn it on and take a nap. They’re okay with celebrating tiny milestones, or like ‘aah, mailed one letter today time to reward myself’ — things like that. Which is okay, but I’m going to assume it’s also intertwined with them getting way too in their head and making quick snap judgements based upon emotions. It’s not lost on me that the knight of wands is represented by a mummy and it’s also placed over the eight of wands currently. In the page of pentacles you can see that while someone is sleeping, a bunch of demons are slowly creeping up to attack her, presumably. I’d equate that to nightmares, or things catching up to you. So it’s like they would do a little bit here and there, celebrate, put it off, and then because of a deadline creeping up on them; either get way too stressed out or rush a bunch of stuff, as an example. All of this is centered around their ability to be okay with what they currently have, but they’re also not necessarily improving or bringing anything in. Your FS on the other hand thinks the exact opposite lmao. They think you give too many people or projects too much of your time or attention. I think the three of wands is interesting because it’s like someone waiting for their plans to come to fruition but the witch is old, the land is decrepit, and everything is withering away. Combined with the nine of cups, this person sees you pouring your efforts into all of these things and waiting for it to come back but you’re just. Standing there waiting with no reward. You guys are quite literally ‘working hard or hardly working’. Blessings is about granting others pardons or forgiveness, basically acting as a priest, but notice all of the creatures on him. It’s a double meaning here. They see you forgiving people that they believe shouldn’t get more of your time because they don’t have good intentions (one is literally yanking on the man’s ear). Mixed with Death, once again it’s mixed. You go around wearing yourself thin to wish people the best who aren’t doing the same for you, believing there will be a revival within a connection (for sure this time), or the other person is the reaper as they’re holding a scythe ready to cut you down. The devil here over the seven of coins speaks to them seeing your dedication falling into a slight obsession at times. It’s a bit unbalanced and sometimes you forget to take care of other things in your life, and you can get tangled within your projects and tie them to maybe your self-worth (if this fails then I failed because I couldn’t keep it going). I think you guys are good for each other in terms of learning your strongest qualities to help balance out your own personal lives honestly. Also Sun Goes Down by Lil Nas X started playing right as I finished.

How You View Them: Justice, Wheel of Fortune Rx, Queen of Wands, X of Wands
How They View You: IX of Swords Rx, The Hanged Man Rx, Queen of Swords, VII of Cups
You view your future spouse as someone quite rational. They’re not the type to believe in things like ‘fate’ or manifestation; if they want it they go get it. They firmly believe in seeing the world through an objective lens but you feel like sometimes they can be a little full of themselves in that sense. Like they have the final say in things. Besides that, they try to be fair and just about most things. It’s pretty basic, the people who are right are right, people who are wrong are wrong, if they feel like they aren’t informed they won’t speak on the matter — it can leave them seeming like they don’t really have much of a voice or opinions besides when they’re speaking up for people, because I definitely feel them here. You see them as someone who knows their worth and they’ll probably make jokes about it (‘oh you think you can get with me, come on now’). They’re pretty light-hearted when it doesn’t come to the state of the world or social politics, and you see them as someone who keeps up with their appearance. Beyond physical beauty but also watching what they eat and exercising as well, they’re very attentive of what makes them feel good. However they tend to take on too much, and I think this leans more back into how others around them are affected. If the state of the world is in shambles it can get to them, and they’ll look into what they can do. They might take on more than they can handle though, like maybe trying to go to a lot of charity events on top of their job, or trying to inform as many people as possible when they can barely fit it into their schedule. Things like that along with their slightly ‘I have the final say’ attitude might be the only annoying things here from you. Your FS views you as…kind of spacey. Weirdly. Ah! The second I figured it out, Bulletproof Heart by MCR started playing leave me alone lmao. So you took them by surprise when they first started to get to know you I think, but they also stuck around for these two sides of you. The majority of their perception of you is that you’re not present most of the time. You’re in your head or imagination and you’re not really paying attention to your surroundings — which I think can worry or annoy them sometimes. You also look like you’re constantly watching the world pass you by because you’re contemplating and would prefer to either help others or you’re not too privy to take control of your life. Like you’re exhausted in a sense and don’t feel like getting back in the ring, so you’d rather just sit back and people watch, or allow other people / things to come to you. This could also be the result of a former relationship (platonic, familial or romantic) that left you scarred and defensive. However, there are topics or times where you come out of hibernation and you come out with a bite. You have extensive knowledge about the subject and you can go toe to toe with them. You keep them engaged in the conversation. You can also give them the feeling that you’re allowing them to approach you but if they say the wrong thing then you’re bringing the sword down. These are not qualities that they expected to see in you, a person who is caught in a standstill, so they find it interesting. Okay Roman’s Revenge by Nicki Minaj is playing and I don’t want to take the lyrics, but the intensity and feeling of the song is the feeling of when that queen of swords comes out, to them.

Your Favorite Traits of Your FS: Death, The Star Rx, The World, III of Pentacles, The Snail and the Huckleberry Rx
Your FS’ Favorite Traits of You: V of Cups Rx, Ace of Swords Rx, The Emperor Rx, VI of Swords Rx, The Caiman and Poppy Rx
So first off I have to say that your FS has to have fixed placements or is a fixed sign? Lmao maybe their birthday is valentines day maybe that’s why they have such a thing with the divine and all of that - or maybe not because spooky guy of all songs just started playing so maybe they are a scorpio, god I get it. Anyway, Your favorite traits are the fact that they are so rooted in the 3D. Usually I don’t like the star being reversed, but here it’s really sweet. With its positioning, it’s looking down at the three of pentacles meaning it’s working with you, which we’ll get into later. Your FS is someone who faces their fears and demons with rationale and like, a guidebook almost. So it’s no longer that big and scary to them, it’s not really that much of a challenge but they’re still able to be rewarded with the transformation that comes afterward. They also feel like a missing puzzle piece to you. I don’t spread the idea of ‘there’s someone out there that will complete you’, and I never will, but when you meet this person they will feel like they can make up for things that you lack. They can also help teach you to strengthen your weaker qualities as well. It quite literally is people with different skill sets coming together to ‘complete a project’. It also always feels super sweet and fun whenever you’re with them. Your FS loves basically all the opposite traits of what was mentioned above. I have to mention that Asystole by Hayley Williams is playing as I look into this five of cups, which is over the nine of swords. So I do believe there is a recovery taking place that they notice within you, and they adore it in a sense that they’re very proud of you. Every day that you wake up and decide to face your fears, keep doing inner work (‘whatever that is’), and placing trust in them makes their heart grow three times bigger — just like the grinch. There is a feeling of wanting to move on or flee out of instinct and self-preservation but choosing not to, and they give you space to figure that out on your own, so hearing that after you work through it and the ultimate answer is to stay — well they don’t want to show it because they want you to do what’s best for you but it’s very nice to hear. Overall we have this energy of you being pretty scatterbrained, which leads to a lot of absurd thoughts and late night ramblings. They find it fun, even if it doesn’t make sense and they can’t really keep up or actively engage at times. You can get stuck in them, which is when they come to ground you, but unless it’s causing harm they just let you have fun in there. They do love when your 'aggressive' side comes out though, because that’s what they’re familiar with and they can keep up with that. They like when you’re stubborn sometimes, because it can be over something small or maybe you guys are debating serious stuff, but it’s a fun shared activity between the two of you. They don’t necessarily want you to get rid of your spacey qualities though because they can learn from it and you teach them a few new things, like how to relax and disengage.

Your Least Favorite Traits of Your FS: Queen of Cups, IV of Cups Rx, III of Pentacles, Strength Rx, The Feral Child Rx
Your FS’ Least Favorite Traits of You: The Empress Rx, Page of Pentacles Rx, The High Priestess Rx, Ace of Pentacles, Revenge
Hey remember when I said they seem to have a complex about them at times from your perspective. You can get irritated with them because in the process of them wanting to help care for you, it seems like they’re treating you like a child. You might decline their help sometimes because you feel like they’re looking down at you. When you look at the way the queen of cups is presented, she seems as if she’s someone of high status. Even in the book it says ‘do not fear the queen of cups, even though she seems intimidating, she is caring’. Your FS can come off as an ‘I told you so’ person at times, but they do wish the best for you. There’s another piece of them seeming to always want to align with ‘the norm’, or what is allowed within society, and that can annoy you because you don’t feel like they’re ‘being authentic’. This can be as little as them not partaking in any hobbies they like because people will mock them for it or they personally feel like it’s embarrassing. For others of you, this has to do with poor anger management and pent up frustration. They don’t know how to channel it elsewhere or relieve it, and it builds up until they blow up over something small or create an issue over nothing, due to something else that was a legitimate problem a few weeks ago. Now a funny side note is — unfortunately you won’t be able to tell from this picture I think, but in person if you look closely enough at this four of cups; one of the drink’s mist is just a bit darker than the rest. I think that’s how you literally feel about your FS’ intuition, it’s blocked and it can annoy you at times that they miss what is obvious to you, but it’s not obvious to them. You guys just speak different language so to speak, that’s all. Your FS wants you to treat yourself better. I giggled because when I pulled the high priestess I heard ‘you call this intuition?’, I’m sorry your FS has been quite the smart-ass this whole reading. The main focus here is split a little bit, with an interesting side message here as well. You can be pretty sensitive and beat yourself down over some small stuff. Your self-esteem isn’t that strong so when you don’t meet goals you set for yourself or you just happen to have one of those days, it hits pretty hard. It feels like you’re eating yourself alive. It might also be that you don’t have good self-care habits as well, because remember, your FS does. There might be days you won’t take care of yourself too well and they won’t like that and might nag you about it. I’m also getting a sense that if you’re in the process of — or maybe beginning to when you meet them — start your own business or indulge in a hobby, you will put your blood sweat and tears into it which is something that worries them because of what I started before. They don’t mind taking care of you or watching out, but it’s the imbalance that stresses them out. They also want you to trust yourself more because sometimes you can feel like you get messages or intuitive hits wrong. Like if one thing goes wrong, and you follow it because of a gut feeling, you beat yourself up for it and that’s not how that works. However at the same time, sometimes you can use that against your FS. This is only for a select few, and it’s not bad it’s more funny and irritable from them tbh, but sometimes you can withhold things from them relating to this stuff if you’re in a funky mood towards them and it irritates the living shit out of them. Like let’s say you guys have reached a mutual understanding and respect for each other and sometimes they ask for a second opinion before deciding on something, maybe you’re a little annoyed and you claim you’re not getting anything but they can tell when you’re lying. Stupid stuff like that lmao.

Pile Five
Tumblr media
How You View Them: III of Pentacles, King of Swords, The Hanged Man, The Tower Rx
How They View You: The High Priestess, The Lovers Rx
Your pile will be somewhat different or interesting. When I was pulling for their side, I was shuffling for quite some time and the first card to come out was the high priestess, and with that I got ‘they should know’. I don’t really feel one way or the other that you already know this person, if they want to reveal it later on they will, because I asked them if they want to divulge information and they basically said ‘I don’t want to talk petty gossip but I will shine light upon my qualities’ essentially (3 of cups rx and queen of wands). So this pile can fall into the pool of: 1) you guys are communicating through your high selves, 2) you’ve met through dreams, 3) you already know this person and the connection is being protected from ruin, etcetc.
Now that that spiel is over. You view your FS as someone who is co-operative. This reads to me as someone who is willing to split the chores, there is no clash of house rules going on, etc. They’re willing to work with you on things so it runs smoothly, and they want it to run efficiently and properly as well. The king feels very kind here? It’s not as noticeable as he usually is and it feels more of someone who you go to for advice or help. They don’t feel like someone who runs the show to you. They feel more like someone who watches from a distance and just makes sure things are going okay without directly interfering or leading anything. They definitely protect you or make moves from behind the scenes though, and you obviously would find this out later along the way. I feel this because for some reason it’s like the king of swords is smiling (?) gently at me while beneath or behind them, the tower is happening. It’s reversal feels more muted to me than to take it as a reverse, like it’s still happening but no one else sees it except for those who need to. You view your FS as someone who is very quiet, calm and supportive. Doesn’t have to literally be gentle but they give off that energy. Feels Taurean? For their rising at least. Now your FS…like I said, they didn’t want to speak up for how they see you for some reason. I definitely don’t think it’s because they’re shy, but there’s something here that they don’t want you to know yet? Which I’m just merely here to show the cards and explain the messages so—
Tumblr media
Your Favorite Traits of Your FS: The Fool, Page of Swords, Nine of Wands, Queen of Cups, The Fox and Ivy Rx
Your FS’ Favorite Traits of You: Six of Swords, III of Cups, VII of Cups, The Ladybug and Sweet Pea Rx
*For those of you that don’t know me, I usually take The Devil or The Moon as a sign to stop asking, and considering the above, I let your FS know that, and for the last card they gave me both LMAO, very very protective and serious about this I like that.
Your favorite traits are seemingly about the same thing LOL. There is a bit of a stubborn streak to your FS; they stand for what they stand for, if they don’t want to do something they won’t do it. It’s not in an aggressive manner, but they are simply not budging, it takes a lot to get them to bend to someone else’s will. It’s rooted in the fact that they’re willing to explore and uncover a lot, listen to many other people’s perspective and understand a lot of things they aren’t familiar with. They’re willing to take the plunge before they can say with resolve that something just isn’t for them. They’re not combative and they’re quite gentle and caring with the way they handle people and their affairs, which is what you like about them. Two extra things, there might be a small pet they have that you adore or grow close to? That and they might enjoy, find peace, or live near the sea.  On your FS’s side, I kept replaying Gurenge by LiSA but I only paid attention to this line: ‘Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why, tell me, I don't need you’, and I see that being highlighted on their side. You reflect your FS somewhat in the fact that when things no longer serve you or you find them to be unhealthy, you leave them behind. You understand that not everything or everyone is meant to be in your life until the end of time, and that’s okay. If they happen to be, then you find yourself to be extremely lucky, that’s all. It’s also a little bit like a social battery when in combination with the three of cups. You do enjoy socializing with the people that you want to socialize with and you fully understand your limits. I also feel like this is you enjoying more of celebrating holidays or certain traditions and going all out for them, which they find cute. You’re idealistic and creative, nothing (within reason) is too much for you, and it’s like you always happen to be able to pick from the right cup when it matters. Also, Cool Kitty from Class of 3000 is playing and I think that just highlights that message, I wasn’t even processing that lol. This episode was about one of the kids hanging out with other kids that just didn’t authentically care for her and were willing to drop her at a second’s notice if she was suddenly not fitting the aesthetic, which calls back to you understanding those that are meant for you and those that aren’t.
Tumblr media
Your Least Favorite Traits of Your FS: Death Rx, X of Cups Rx, V of Cups, V of Wands, The Specimen
Your FS’ Least Favorite Traits of You: Judgement Rx, X of Pentacles Rx, The Elixir
Only If For A Night by Florence + the Machine is playing. You feel like your FS can be too unchanging at times. They do explore, try things, travel, etc — but their end results seems to be that they go back into their bubble to stay with what’s familiar. So while their wisdom expands, they don’t. I was looking at the five of cups and Too Sensitive by Sean Kennedy started playing. I was going to say the imagery looks like someone knocking the cups over after a fight to really rub salt into a wound. There is a defensive energy that’s been seen throughout the entire reading, and it comes out with you too, but it’s when you challenge them on this aspect of their mindset. It feels like someone pulled the wool over your eyes and now you’re being shown the truth, in a way. I think it’s a small problem that can boil into a big one if not cared for.
Your FS feels like you try too hard to solve a problem that’s not there. The Specimen is, well it’s a creature. I find it very interesting that you both got vials, and it’s like one is the problem and the other seems to be like an antidote. They’re both showing up negatively though. One of these interpretations could be that they feel like old arguments or fights get recycled again and again, and they’re tired of it. However, I don’t feel like that’s the main message here. That’s for very few of you, and if you don’t know who I’m talking about, then you picked the wrong pile, there’s a very high chance of that. Sometimes piles can be hijacked by people who need to hear a specific message. This feels like a relationship with a lot of squaring going on astrologically. Two people approaching something with the same mindset but from different perspectives. Sun by CHANMINA is playing.
For some of you, there is a high chance that this is a past relationship, or someone that you knew / worked with, and they just never made any moves towards you during that time.
Tumblr media
Pile Six
Tumblr media
How You View Them: III of Wands, Queen of Swords, Knight of Swords Rx, VI of Wands Rx
How They View You: Kings of Wands Rx, V of Wands, King of Swords Rx, Queen of Pentacles
You view your future spouse as someone who has something to prove. They can come off as a bit blunt and dismissive. I believe that’s due to their focus being on something else, which would be their goals and achievements. It’s kind of interesting because they might have made a bad first impression, or maybe this is when they get really stressed out and tense, but they can be quite unfavorable to be around during those moments. They might have Aries influence actually, because I feel like whatever they feel, they let it out without thinking, that’s their stress relief (even if it doesn’t really do anything). You might see them as someone who has some growing to do and is all talk, but on the flipside it kind of seems like they’re just anxious to fill the shoes that are set for them? Like the reason why they act like that is because they know what’s coming but they’re worried that it might not be all it’s amped up to be (you know, because they keep hyping it up), so then they get in their head and then they’re a little bit of a shit-head. One of the more interesting viewpoints of the piles today I’ll say. For your FS I struggled with these king cards at first I'm not gonna lie. Looking back at it, very simple. I keep getting a strong feeling that this person has to at least be a year younger than you. Anyway, they see you as quite the authoritative figure in their life, sometimes to an overwhelming degree. It’s giving the feeling of being someone’s manager or supervisor and always micromanaging them, I’m not getting the feeling of abusing your power. They see you as combative over petty stuff, feeling like you throw your weight (intelligence and status) around. This can include them being less experienced than you in some way and it might strike a nerve with them even if you aren’t attempting to do that. Like they might appreciate the fact that you do take time to either guide or show them that you care, but then they might feel like you’re looking down on them and it might fire them up all over again.
Tumblr media
Your Favorite Traits of Your FS: Page of Wands, The Emperor Rx, VIII of Swords Rx, The Hermit, The Deer and Oat
Your FS’ Favorite Traits of You: Strength Rx, X of Swords Rx, Wheel of Fortune, VI of Swords, The Bee and Pomegranate
Your favorite traits are that they can be unapologetically themselves and that they offer you a place of solitude or safety. It doesn’t have to be physical, but they feel safe to you. Maybe quite literally feel healing to you, but mainly safe. They might request vacations where you guys have your phones turned off or at least on DnD. There’s a lot of youthful energy to them that is refreshing to you, so maybe you’ve felt the need to constantly be mature and presentable whether that be in your career, around friends or family, etc — but they give you that space to let you be goofy, have food fights in the middle of baking, finger paint, bring out your inner child with them. There’s also a more introspective quality to them that isn’t so front and center in their daily life that you enjoy experiencing. They can seem to not really be grounded or listen to an inner voice but it is there and there’s a bit more happening internally than meets the eye. Hm. JA ARA E by Burna Boy is playing and I usually don’t draw back to ethnicities or anything but someone might be african or african-american considering the cards as well. Your FS’s side is pretty straight forward so I’m very sorry if this is so short but they like the side of you that is able to let go and let be. They wish to understand how you’re able to not fight against so many things, or not be so anxious about the world around you at times. How you can heal so beautifully after the worst betrayals. The way you can take the tried and true road, even if it’s not the best road for you at the time, with not many complaints. They’re slightly jealous but also admirable of these gentle qualities of yours. I’m mainly getting this from my gut but there might be a piece of them that feels like they have a lot of catching up to do when it comes to you so it makes them feel small and slightly…it’s not scared or embarrassed but it’s like they want to rush and put in a lot of overtime to catch up, but when you’re not looking. The feeling of inadequacy is always in the back of their mind, it just kind of depends on when it gets triggered.
Tumblr media
Your Least Favorite Traits of Your FS: IV of Pentacles Rx, II of Swords Rx, IV of Swords, III of Swords, The Feeding
Your FS’ Least Favorite Traits of You: II of Wands Rx, Judgement Rx, Queen of Swords, IX of Cups, Tears
You think your FS can be sneaky or try to take shortcuts to make things happen, which can annoy you sometimes. With the four of pentacles combined with feeding, it makes me feel like entanglements and promises, but too many things get caught up within their web for things to happen so it must be sacrificed, ultimately making it not happen. The cycle keeps happening though because someone doesn’t want to fall short of their self-imposed goal. You also feel like they hide away from big responsibilities or scary choices. The skeletons are popping up from the ground but I’d have to imagine it wouldn’t be able to see which choice is being made, and the vampire is peeking out of her coffin, looking like she’s risen, but can easily shut it again. All of this leads to a lot of heartbreak and a woe is me mindset that can be easily avoided from your perspective
Your FS on the other hand thinks you worry too much and it can get to them. I was wondering why it seemed like the energies started to intertwine but it seems like you’re both directly affecting each other here. They don’t like when you worry about them to the point of covering up their mistakes and cleaning up their mess. You can nag them a lot and sound like their mom which is not too attractive. This nine of cups feels like the ‘cleaning up the mess’ part for some reason. You can also remind them a lot of their failures in a backwards way. It’s you telling them to be cautious and giving them advice or different paths to take next time, and them taking it the wrong way. Thinking you’re being underhanded and referencing their last failed attempt. There’s just a bit more communication that is needed here so people understand exactly what is being said and ego’s aren’t hurt along the way, is all. Might have squared or opposing mercury, mars, or ascendant aspects? Honestly even Pluto I think, since it’s dealing with authority.

Transiting Sun enters Capricorn
Friday, December 22, 2023 - Saturday, January 20, 2024
Capricorn the Sea Goat*:
Earth (material - practical, grounded, sensual, reliable, stable, cautious)
Yin (gravity - ingoing, receptive, intuitive, collecting)
Cardinal (initiating action - generating, acting, directing)
Transpersonal (universal - focused on ideals and abstractions)
“I utilize”
Ruler - Saturn; exalted - Mars
Color: deep forest greens and pine greens
(* Gleaned almost completely from the book Astrology for Yourself by Bloch and George; the color is my own theory/belief.)
I always feel a definite “jolt” in the vibe, as we transition from raucous Sagittarian “deck the halls,” to contemplative Capricornian “silent night, holy night.”
And the whole “New Year’s resolution” tradition is a good way to feel the general Capricorn intention: we’re taking a longer term view, trying to determine the best path going forward to promise the most success.
The Sun’s transit through Capricorn, this time, is bracketed by some significant conjunctions: we begin with Sun-Mercury, and end with Sun-Pluto.
Friday, December 22 - Sun/Capricorn conjunct Mercury Rx/Capricorn, 0°39’. A systems upgrade for our frame of mind - we take a more serious, disciplined approach. How can we be cannier about life?
Sunday, December 24 - Sun/Capricorn sextile Saturn/Pisces, 2°37’. Oh yes, we’re taking Capricorn seriously, all right - exploring dimensions we can’t find in a cursory, superficial glance.
Tuesday, December 26 - Sun/Capricorn (4°30’) sesquisquare Uranus Rx/Taurus (19°30’). A little post-holiday frustration? We see where we want to be, and we can’t quite get there . . . yet.
Wednesday, December 27 - Sun/Capricorn trine Jupiter Rx/Taurus, 5°36’. Feel better now? That goal isn’t as far away as it seems.
Saturday, January 6 - Sun/Capricorn square Chiron/Aries, 15°29’. Watch out for hurt feelings when people don’t acknowledge one another. We are stronger together, and we’re all equals.
Then a very intense few days between Tuesday, January 9 - Friday, January 12:
Sun/Capricorn semi-sextile Ceres/Sagittarius, 19°00’
Sun/Capricorn (19°04’) semi-square Saturn/Pisces (4°04’)
Sun/Capricorm trine Uranus Rx/Taurus, 19°13’
Sun/Capricorn square North Node/Aries and South Node/Libra, 20°21’
New Moon, 20°44’ Capricorn
Sun/Capricorn trine Juno/Virgo, 21°52’
Sun/Capricorn sextile Pallas Athene/Scorpio, 21°53’
The main thing is the New Moon, with all the other aspects valid for it. We’re very interested in making practical innovations, more on a scale of benefiting our everyday lives and relationships. Be wary of “my way or the highway” attitudes, of Eeyore-like negative attitudes, and especially of “going along to get along.”
Sunday, January 14:
Sun/Capricorn inconjunct Vesta Rx/Gemini, 24°00’
Sun/Capricorn square Eris/Aries, 24°09’
Ego getting in the way, and a lack (or failure) of personal integration. Guard against anger undoing our plans and hard work.
Monday, January 15 - Sun/Capricorn sextile Neptune/Pisces, 25°21’. In the US, this is Martin Luther King Jr. day. There’s an exemplary Capricorn role model for us. Read his final speech for some pure Capricorn. (And read his Riverside Church speech “Beyond Vietnam” for more Cap insight.)
Saturday, January 20 - Sun/Capricorn conjunct Pluto/Capricorn, 29°59’. This is the very last Sun-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn for the next 240-ish years. Think about everything we’ve gone through between 2008 and now - what went wrong, what went right - and how has all that changed our perception of Capricorn? The Sun enters Aquarius a mere 21 minutes after this conjunction matures, followed by Pluto about 11 hours aftwrward.

Healing II: Decisions
Tumblr media
Pairing(s): Kabal/F!Reader
Warning(s): Angst, Graphic Violence
A/N: Continuation of previous fic
It has already been a week since you last saw Kabal, and you’re sure as hell guessing the next will be harder. Most of your time spent has been at home. You have been isolating yourself from others. The negative emotions were getting the best of you. Thoughts kept plaguing your mind as to why Kabal chose to abandon you all of a sudden. This seemed very odd for this to happen. Was it because of the burns affecting his self esteem? Probably. He received those injuries while trying his damndest to help the city. You didn’t care whether he had scathing burns or not. You still love him at the end of the day. Sure, your fiancé has burn marks now, but it was the love for each other that never burns out. You miss him so much.
Even though you were going through hefty emotions, you still managed to take care of other things and attend work. You manage to shift your mind from Kabal and keep focus. At least that was one thing you did a good job at. You also have a few friends from work who were actually worried about you. You never told them much besides the fact that you were “dealing with personal matters.” It was nice of them to care, and you admired that. There was not a single bit of motivation to tell what actually happened though. You still wanted to remain alone in your concerned state of mind. You weren’t sure if Kabal will ever come back to you. Even if one of your friends offered to go and have a treat with them, you brush it off immediately.
Whenever you’re finished with work, your options would either be going straight home, or visiting the bar downtown for a drink or two. Your rule of thumb was always drinking on weekends unless you earned an off day the next. You are dropped off by a taxi to the bar one night to drink your sadness away. Thirty minutes pass by before asking a bartender named Terrance for a refill. He recognizes the state you are in and begins to ask, “Is everything alright? You’re not lookin’ too bright.”
Your thoughts snap after hearing his concern. You along with Kabal knew him and would keep up conversations during your time at the bar. He sometimes talked about how your love for each other reminded him of his previous lover who passed years back. The leisure time spent there had been worth it.
“Oh, uh yeah. I’m doing okay. Just stuff going on in my life right now,” you voiced with a hint of sorrow. Terrance knew something was wrong. He didn’t want to ignore your emotional state.
“Are you sure? We can always talk about it. Besides, your fiancé isn’t here with you,” he raises a brow, immediately recognizing this, “You and him always come to my bar together, and this right here doesn’t look right.”
You were not ready to talk about it. There was a need to wait a little longer until you have completely given up on the relationship. Maybe assume that Kabal left for good in the end. If this were the case, then this was something you had to deal with sooner or later. It will take some time for you to heal as well, yet a difficult task to go through.
“Really, I’m okay. I appreciate you worrying about me. I just want to clear my mind is all,” you answer with a nervous smile. You didn’t want him to pry into what was going on until reaching the conclusion.
“Anything you want, Y/N,” he goes away with a slight smile to search for the bottle of whiskey. One of your fingers rub against the edge of the glass while waiting. This was going to be your second and last serving of whiskey for tonight. You didn’t want to get completely drunk on the way home.
After the rest of the hour passed, you arrive back home by taxi once again. You managed to enter the house even though you felt a little tipsy from drinking. You rest yourself on the couch of the living room in silence. You turn to look through the patio door next to you. The night sky was beautiful with stars sprawled along the way. The cold air came in contact with your skin, causing you to jump. Luckily for you there was a blanket that remained on the couch in case you need it. You took it to wrap around yourself to keep warm. It would have been nicer if your fiancé was still here to make you comfortable. Eyes take in a box of assorted chocolates Kabal surprised you with after the proposal. You reach for the box from the coffee table to study over. Its simple yet beautiful design easily tells how expensive this was. Half of the box is filled with chocolates so far, and it was being shared with Kabal. You remember how you playfully fed each other, and shared a piece of chocolate in your mouths which ended up being a kiss. This shows how much he loved you.
With that, you begin sobbing from the beloved memory. None of this would have happened if he stayed home, but you couldn’t do anything about it. You can’t get Kabal out of your head. This is so fucking hard to deal with. Your heart pains for him as your stomach is kept in a knot.
“Damn it, Kabal. I wish you were here,” your words stumbled through your crying.
While you were emptying your sorrows, little did you know that a familiar figure watched you from the glass door of the patio. A gloved hand rests on the glass as he contemplates what you were going through. He brought in hook swords just in case something was happening. This was none other than Kabal himself. It has been a while since the encounter, so he was curious enough to check up on you without being seen. He was surprised there was no one else in the home. You haven’t moved on just yet. Watching you cry alone really hurts him so much inside and out. Between reaching out for you and keeping his distance, Kabal was unsure if you still actually love him. His mind leans more towards the former choice rather than the latter. Regardless, these decisions kept bothering him. He had to return to Black Dragon’s operations to figure this out.
“Shit, Y/N. You still love me, don’t you?”
With that, he runs off in the night. There is a big possibility Kabal would not remain with the Black Dragon for any longer. Kano would be pissed off eventually, but that didn’t matter to him. He’s got the balls to tell him about his decision since he doesn’t want to deal with being tracked down. That can put you in danger, too. Hell, he was even used to Kano acting like the selfish asshole he is. Kabal can take any hit that’s coming for him.
“Alright then, speedy. Since when are you gonna tell me where you’ve been, eh? Can’t keep secrets from your friend,” Kano chuckled out. Friend? He hated hearing that. Kabal ignores him while he stares down at the table, holding onto his glass of rum. He refused to drink due to the urge of keeping his mask on. Unwarranted judgement from others would be enough for him to deal with.
Black Dragon’s ring leader wasn’t having it. He nudged him with his elbow, “Oh c’mon, snap out of it. Maybe you could use some roughin’ up in the cage, huh?”
Kabal glances towards the cage whilst a match took place. It was fight night at the club. He showed no motivation to do so, unless a sign of anger catches up to him.
“I’ll pass.”
Kano was getting confused as to why he behaved like this at this point of time. He soon realized what he kept thinking about, “Ah, it’s about the lass, right? You’re much better off without her,” he downs a bottle of beer, “Besides, she would’ve thought you looked like a freak show anyway.”
“It isn’t like that, asshole,” Kabal clenched his hand into a fist while the other grips the glass tight. He was already getting pissed.
“Then how are you so sure?”
“Right? I mean, there’s no way she’d stick with you after getting burned. Maybe I’d try hooking up with her?” one of the Black Dragon thugs blurt out with a cocky attitude. He was one of the least favored individuals, especially towards the big dogs.
Kabal shut him down, “Keep running that mouth and I won’t hesitate to gut you!”
The thug raises his hands in surrender. Kabal resumes the conversation, “I’m saying that once I saw her at home, she wasn’t looking too bright. I even noticed that she was drinking, and I’m not just going to let that slide.”
Kano rolls his eye, “For fuck’s sake, Kabal. You’re softening up on me. What choice do you have-“
“You’ve never been in a relationship like I am, jackass!”
The argument caused a commotion, some people around the bar becoming nosy. The speed demon didn’t mind it though. He wanted everyone in the Black Dragon to know who to not piss off. He can beat up Kano if he wanted to. Anything for his girl.
The pain-in-the-ass butted in once again with a whistle, “Looks like someone’s getting all pissy.”
This drove Kabal over the edge before he attempts to throw his glass at him. The guy dodged its path as it hits the fence of the fighting pen. The merc rose from his seat before pulling out one of his hook swords. Regardless of the man’s pleading, Kabal swung his sword to aim towards his side, penetrating through and damaging his lung and ribcage. The goon is stunned with blood quickly pouring out of his weakened body. Kabal then pulls him forward until roughly placing his foot against his hip, pushing the guy down to his knees. The weapon drags down to his stomach with bones tearing through it. The pain finally ends as Kabal rips his hook sword away, backing off to analyze the work he’s done with glee. Blood choked and gurgled from the thug’s mouth before he immediately lays flat on the floor, succumbing to his death. The merc flings the intestines across the floor with blood still remaining. He turns to Kano before motioning towards the cage.
“C’mon,” he demands Kano while walking away from him. He drags his hook sword across from behind to intimidate. Sparks are made within its path before the weapon swiftly leaves the floor. As he makes it in the fighting pen, Kabal puts his sword back in its place before he walks to the fence. Eyes never leave Kano while placing an arm above him, tugging at the fence.
“Are you gonna keep pussying out or what!?”
The crowd hollered for a fight between the two. Kano’s brows furrowed at him before making it to the pen. Kabal moves back to the center, greeted by his former ally’s entrance. They slowly circle around each other, waiting for their first move at any moment.
“You’re makin’ a big mistake, speedy,” Kano warns as he cracks his knuckles.
“Oh yeah? How so?”
“You’ll find out sooner or later. Allow me to teach you a lesson.”
After finishing his sentence, he quickly tries to throw some punches then and there. Kabal was able to dodge them all thanks to his speed. He quickly grabs his arm only to punch his face twice, the Black Dragon leader stumbling backwards. Kabal then utilizes his Nomad Dash, making Kano spin quick. He returns with a hit to his abdomen by the knee until grabbing with one of his hook swords, kicking him away in the process. Kano fell to the floor, but he hasn’t given up yet. He lifted himself by his forearm before turning back to his opponent. Kabal brought his other sword out to sharpen both of them. He lifts them in the air, clanging against each other as an act of intimidation.
Kabal taunted, “C’mon, fight me!”
The crowd rooted for his performance. Kano growled at him and got back up on his feet. He spat on the floor and pulls one of his butterfly knives out to examine. He glances up at Kabal with a smug grin, tossing the knife in his hand.
“I won’t let you go easy this time,” Kano’s voice went dark.
Kabal ran to swing both swords into him, but was dodged and blocked off by his knife. The one-eyed crook aimed a punch to his mask, roughly knocking him back. He swung his other knife down to the merc’s shoulder, earning a pained groan from him.
“You’re getting a bit slow, mate.”
Kano tears away the knife to head butt his enemy as this sent him stumbling back. He twirls both knives until they slash through Kabal’s chest. He aims his boot towards his upper abdomen whilst a knife penetrates through him. He then spin kicks Kabal, sending him to the floor.
“Heh, you’ll have to do better than that,” Kano taunts with cockiness. Kabal lifts himself up by one leg while looking at his enemy. Kano let out a dark chuckle as he overpowered him. The speed demon isn’t going to back down like this.
“Fuck, get it together, Kabal,” he utters to himself.
The fight continued on as the crowd cheered and placed bets against one another, guessing who the winner came to be. The constant sounds of swift movement and painful groans by each blow kept the showing running. Kabal could care less about keeping the crowd entertained. All that matters is beating the shit out of Kano and running back home to see you again. It was a huge cost, and this will end up being worth it. He’d do anything to see his fiancé again.
As minutes pass through the fight, Kabal had been gaining the upper hand. His opponent got dizzy from the fighting Kabal put up. He grips his shoulder strap to send a few final punches to the face, giving the man a nosebleed. He drags Kano to the fence and pushes him against it.
Kabal announced to the audience, “If you try to track me down and fuck with me, I’ll be sure to beat the living shit out of you just like I did to him!”
He motions towards Kano’s exhausted self. The merc finishes off his speech, “Or even worse…”
Kabal glances at the thug’s dead body he took care of earlier. He throws Kano to the ground, watching him pant for air desperately. The two men were covered in blood and sweat along with some areas of the floor. One of them was kept on his feet.
“Consider this a lesson learned,” the merc reminds his former ally. Kano gave him an angry stare and spat out blood. He soon wipes the blood off his lips.
“You’re gonna regret this some day. Besides, you’re god damn lucky that I haven’t splattered your face like a dropped pie,” Kano warns him. Kabal didn’t care about his warning.
“Cut the crap, Kano. I’m done with your fucking gig.”
The speed demon quickly walks off to push the gate open. He passes through the crowd to reach for the exit. Everyone either went silent or uttered about the conclusion of the fight. One thug out of nowhere tries to throw a bottle at Kabal, yet misses the target.
Two Black Dragon men rush in the pen to help Kano. One of them asked, “Shit, are you alright? You want us to get rid of this bastard?”
Kano shook his head, “Nah, let him live. If he wants to be a crass ass and stay with the lass, so be it.”

Also at this point? I’m mad all over at people who write Min off as being nothing but a Rand tag-along.
Like. Yes, she has superglued herself to his side by the end of book 7 for the most part. BUT - and this is a big one! - she had a viewing that he would die without Moiraine. And Moiraine is dead.
So not only did she have to watch him be broken down and tortured, and is actively witnessing the fallout of that, she doesn’t think he has a chance and is terrified.
Does she have thoughts along the lines of ‘Damn he fine!’ YOU BETCHA! That’s a very normal, human response when you like somebody even if it’s the end of days. She’s also young and this is her first relationship, give a girl a break.
Regardless she’s doing what she can to support him in what she believes is a doomed endeavor. Because she’s seen what fighting him does firsthand - better to help and mitigate the damage than go against him.
Rand’s sent everybody he cares about away that he can. Every single person. He’s not even thinking about Tam anymore because it’s dangerous. Elayne he’s determined never to see again, same with Avi. Even Egwene to some extent. He’d send away Mat and Perrin forever if he could. He’d send the Maidens away if they’d stand for it so he settles for pretending he doesn’t care about them and keeps them around as a favor to them.
He’s isolating in a major way.
But Min isn’t just sitting there like a bump on a damn log.
1. She’s taken over reading after Fel got torn to bits. She’s not realized why exactly it’s important, but she’s the only person who even thought to read the books that got him killed. (Because why would the shadow kill him if he didn’t know something?)
2. She might have changed her appearance a little, but it’s on her terms. She’s still in her breeches and boots, they’re just more feminine, which very well could be her own preference - Min wasn’t exactly wealthy, and dressing as she did wasn’t safe unless she went the masculine route before. Now she has freedom to explore.
3. She befriended the Wise Ones and the Aiel, finally finding a group of people that doesn’t question her abilities or try and use them for their own gain. They just accept her.
4. She has spent enough time with Rand to know what he needs and, like any good partner, is trying to support him.
5. She’s honed her abilities with her daggers and remains armed at all times. Anybody around Rand can’t be defenseless. When they’re with Caraline & Co. she’s ready to protect him too. (When they try and blame Rand by focus on the negative things that are happening, she’s quick to cite ‘Balance’ and the positives.)
6. Staying by Rand’s side means she can advise him on possible viewings and what they mean - something she feels comfortable enough doing because he never asks for more than she tells him.
I guess I just don’t get why people dislike her so much. It’s probably a shipping thing, but she’s far from useless and reducing her to girl-on-Rand’s-arm has to be a willful refusal to look at her actual actions and instead focusing on her thoughts despite WOT being filled with unreliable narrators. We’re supposed to look beyond what she thinks to see what she does.

Anon requested
hi :(( i'm having a wicked baby fever and was wondering if i could request for the asl brothers react to you saying youre pregnant, how they act while youre pregnant and how they act when youre giving birth + after giving birth >.< (yes this is most wicked baby fever ive had) thank you !!
Oh boy, I hope you'll be alright. That's a fever that can be very exhausting to have in the long run, so stay safe. XD. Anyway, let's see how the borhters will react. One thing I'll say ahead, is that with Luffy, reader isn't his s/o, but his friend. I'm not writing Luffy in any romantic/sexual relationship.
This was written by Didi [@usopp-writes]
Enjoy <3
Ace and Sabo x female reader (serparately) Luffy and female reader SFW Word count: 1,164 TW: Pregnancy, birth, post birth
Tumblr media
Ace
When you tell him that you’re pregnant, he freaks out at first. He’d been so careful, he wasn’t ready to have kids, he wasn’t sure he wanted any. Why would he curse his child with his blood? Are you sure you’re pregnant?
You of course knew of his self-doubt and how insecure he was about being allowed to live, yet hearing him say all the above made you sad.
Marco is the one to knock some senses into him, when he sees your happiness leave your eyes and tears stinging in them instead.
Ace shuts up, when he sees the tears and apologizes over and over again.
Throughout your pregnancy, you aren’t the only one with mood swings. Ace is just as bad, going from a loving boyfriend who’s excited to become a father, to the self-loathing male that thinks he’d doomed you and his child.
It is definitely not an easy pregnancy emotionally and if it hadn’t been for the rest of the crew, you would have not gotten through it. You couldn’t count on Ace for emotional support or practical.
When you’re in labor, Ace tries hard to be there for you, but seeing you in so much pain, isn’t easy for him. He loves you, but sometimes love isn’t enough. You’re happy that Marco and Deuce are there to help you through it. However, Ace doesn’t leave your side either, he’s just not emotionally there.
You’re tired after a long labor, but once you hear your child’s screams, you smile. Holding your little baby for the first time, washes away the pain and you can’t believe you’d grown such a miracle inside of you. You cry happily.
Ace stand there at your side, seeing this little miracle in your arms and he can’t believe he’s been part of its creation. Something inside of him starts to break down.
After the baby had some food, Marco takes them and nudges Ace along to show him how to change diapers. When Ace holds his baby for the first time, he can’t help but smile and feel protective.
“Hey there. I’m your daddy.” He whispers softly, though loud enough for you all to hear. There’s some tenderness and awe in his voice and you get a feeling that everything will be alright.
Ace slowly takes on the responsibility of being a father and helps you out, though he will still have his negative feelings and mood swings now and then, though it’s less than it has been in years.
Sabo
When you tell Sabo that you’re pregnant, he stares at you with wide open eyes for a while. Blinking, he takes his time to progress your words. You are pregnant. With his kid. He’s going to be a father.
Then he smiles and pulls you close, kissing your head, your face and then your lips. He’s so happy to start a family with you.
You know that it means you won’t be allowed on any missions, Sabo wouldn’t want you to and neither would Dragon. It doesn’t mean you will be doing nothing for the entire pregnancy. There’s still a lot to do and Sabo makes sure you have something to do, but aren’t overworked either.
Whenever he comes back from a mission, he has brought something for your unborn child. Mostly clothes, but also toys now and then.
As your due day is closing in, Sabo isn’t allowed to leave HQ, as Dragon wants him to be there when you give birth.
He’ll be at your side all the time, holding your hand, guiding you through the delivery, just as he’d read and learnt to do.
He cries with you, when he hears your baby scream for the first time and he looks so proud, when you hold your baby for the first time.
When he gets to hold his little baby, it seems as if he has grown taller. Loving and doting eyes looks down at the wrinkled face in his arms.
“Welcome to the world, my little prince/princess.” He smiles.
Sabo is overwhelmed with happiness and pride. Koala is the one to drag him out to get a shower or some fresh air or just so you can rest up, as he else will be at your side all the time, just watching your little baby breathe.
Luffy
When you tell Luffy that you’re pregnant, he just stares blankly at you. He’s your friend and captain, you had to tell him this, as he’s the one deciding if you can stay or should leave the ship.
Minutes pass and he keeps staring blankly at you, until he looks at Usopp, who is staring wide eyed at you. “What does pregnant mean?” Luffy asks his friend and you shake your head.
“It means a baby is growing inside of me.” You explain.
Luffy tilts his head. “Did you eat it? How else did it get there?”
You groan, having thought he had some basic knowledge of how babies were made. Before diving into an explanation, Nami drags Luffy aside, telling him off for being so rude to you and explaining that it meant you shouldn’t be put in danger or the baby could die.
Her bluntness makes you flinch, as you didn’t want to leave the crew, but considering your condition, it could be what would be the best for you.
Luffy just declares that everyone should make sure you were out of danger until Chopper say that you can fight again. He definitely doesn’t understand the length of a pregnancy or that there would be a baby to take care of later.
That doesn’t mean he isn’t curious though and when you shows signs of cravings and weird eating habits, he will eat the same as you, just so you feel better about wanting chocolate on your meat.
He’s in awe at your stomach getting bigger and bigger, but even more so, when the baby starts kicking you. You’ll get used to his hand lying on your stomach and him laughing with glee, when the baby kicks.
Luffy won’t be at your side when you give birth, but he’ll be waiting outside, feeling upset hearing you moan and scram in pain.
As soon as he’s allowed to, he enters the room and stares in awe at the small baby in your arms.
“Why don’t you come over and greet your new nakama, uncle Luffy?” You smile, tired after being in labor, but hay.
Luffy rushes to your side and pokes the baby’s nose gently, a big bright smile on his face. “Hey baby. I’m your uncle Luffy and I’m going to be the King of Pirates.”
You can’t help but laugh at the way he’s introducing himself. Luffy will always be Luffy after all.

Tumblr media
Excited barks float through the house, and as much as you love Amber and would do anything for her, it’s six am, and you should be sleeping.
You creep downstairs to see whether she’s okay, only to hear Zhongli shushing her.
“Amber, please keep it down,” he says, kneeling down to put her leash on. “Remember our deal, if you wake yn, we can’t go for a walk.”
Amber is silent. You imagine her tilting her head to the side.
“I can't believe yn has trained you so thoroughly that the word ‘walk’ means nothing to you,” He huffs and clears his throat. “If you’re not quiet, we can’t go for…walkies.”
Amber whines, only really hearing the negative part of the sentence.
“You know what she’s like. If she sees we’re going without her she’ll be in the most argumentative mood. Rightly so, I admit, but the fact remains.”
Amber growls playfully, snatching her leash out of his hands as if she’s going to walk herself. “Such aggression,” Zhongli chuckles, petting her head. “Did yn teach you that? It seems like the kind of thing she’d do.”
“Are you bitching about me to our dog?” you ask incredulously. Zhongli isn’t even surprised by your presence, so you’re guessing that he either knew you were there or he heard you stomp out of bed. Knowing him, both are viable options.
“Good morning, love.” he smiles, pulling you into a hug. Amber runs at your legs, yipping happily, and you push Zhongli away to pick her up. She nuzzles her face against yours with a playful bark.
“Is your father gossiping with you?” You tease. “He is, isn’t he? He’s a big old gossip!”
“I was not gossiping,” he complains. He picks up Amber’s discarded leash. “I was simply stating the truth. Would you like to join us on our walk?”
“Of course I do.” You smile.
“Then you should probably get changed,” His eyes glide over you and you suddenly realise how right he is—you can’t go out for a walk in just one of his shirts. If you did that, Zhongli would probably hit every person who even dared to look at you with rocks and it wouldn’t be the first time.
“You’re right. Come on, Amber. It’s my turn to gossip with you while I get changed.”
Amber follows behind you, with a valiant attempt at getting up the stairs. She tries her best to do things most things herself, but if she lets out a single whimper, Zhongli picks her up immediately. That should make him her favourite, but you feed her most of the time, so the two of you are equally matched. You slow down so she can keep trying at her own pace.
Amber climbs onto your bed as you start powering through your clothes. “Did you know you’re six months old today?” Amber yips happily. You and Zhongli swear she can understand what you’re saying to her by the way she responds to you both—sometimes she sits by you, listening intently to your conversations.
“Your dad will never admit it, but he remembered and we’re going out for dinner later. He’s saying it’s an advance on our anniversary but I know better.” Amber bounces on the bed a few times, and almost flies off. You catch her, smiling softly. “You’ve not grown at all, have you? You’re still as small as the day we got you!”
“Even though you keep sneaking her extra food,” You hadn’t noticed Zhongli had come upstairs.
“I never!" you hiss, and Amber barks along.
“Your mother keeps feeding you more than she should, doesn’t she?”
That’s new. You’ve embraced the title of dog mum with your whole being. You even commissioned a dress with the words embroidered on it, but Zhongli refuses to wear the shirt you had made for him.
“You said your love for me knows no bounds. If that were the case, you’d wear the shirt.” You huffed, and Zhongli simply laughed.
“I never lied. My love for you does know no bounds. My shame, however, knows plenty.”
Although at the time, you had relented, you promised you’d get him in the shirt some way or another. You’ve always referred to Amber as your child, and whilst Zhongli endures you calling him Amber’s dad, he’s never once willingly called himself that.
“Did you just call me Amber’s mother?”
Zhongli hums. “Is that not what your dress says?”
“Now what has caused this change of pace, I wonder?” You tease, grinning devilishly. Instead of responding to you immediately, he picks Amber up with a tender smile.
“I’m simply seeing things from your point of view,” he smiles.“Amber is quite like a child in some ways.”
“Does this mean you’ll wear the shirt?” Excitement glazes your eyes and Zhongli can't help but laugh.
“Certainly not,” he chuckles. Although, as you go out on your walk, he certainly acts the part of a proud dog dad. Every time someone compliments Amber or mentions how adorable she is, he smiles proudly as you gush about how perfect your dog is. The minute Amber slows down, he’s picked her up, cradling her to his chest the way he did when you first got her. Seeing him be so paternal to her, even though she’s a dog, does something to you, and you often spend the rest of your walks with your head lowered to try and hide the early onset of blush.
“Are you alright, love?”
“Oh, I’m just perfect.” You mutter. It’s not like you’re dying internally, or anything.
“I don’t believe you at all.”
“That’s your problem, not mine.”
Zhongli’s face takes on a dignified impishness as he grins down at you. “Maybe I will wear that shirt.” Despite his attempts to disguise this as his own decision–one he’s made of his own free will, the fact remains. He really can’t bear to disappoint you, and if making you happy involves him wearing a silly little shirt. He’ll do it.
But his words don’t have the effect on you that he expects. You just blush more, turning your face away from him. “I’m hungry.” You huff indignantly. “Let’s go home.”
a/n i, like yn, want to have zhongli's babies

Heyy, I'M OBSESSED with your Dabi x teen reader fics. So I was wondering if u could do Dabi x teen reader that has heavy trauma from her mother? (Like she was emotionally abusive towards her) So now she has really low self esteem and even though she doesn't mention it to Dabi he kind of notices... Like what would he do in his own hands off way?
Tyy (P.S: If ur uncomfortrable w this request please don't be forced to write it!!)
Thank you, I’m glad you like my writing! So I’m assuming you mean this post and this post? I wrote more in the same theme, focusing more on the abusive/neglectful mom angle and how relatable that would be for Dabi. One of the previous ones is already about Dabi as a big brother of sorts, so this is not as much about that. This would be set before the roommate post that’s linked above, if there has to be a timeline
•You never really had a good relationship with your mother
•No matter what you did, you were never good enough, nothing you ever did was enough for her, no matter how hard you tried
•This of course didn’t do any favors for your mental health and the trauma just kept accumulating
•You’ve spent most of your time with the League for a while now and you avoided going home at all cost
•You’re not the most open type, but what little you did say about your mother, painted a very negative picture
•Dabi isn’t really the type to open up either, but he does like to complain, a lot
•He hasn’t exactly opened up about his past, but you do know he didn’t have a good relationship with either of his parents, especially his father
•As your self-esteem deteriorated, you started acting more carelessly and by the time you met the League you were in a pretty bad way
•Dabi ended up taking note of this, and while he didn’t really give you more confidence or anything, he complained at you and scolded you when you did stupid shit like got too careless around cops or something
•It’s his way of showing he cares
•Dabi does care quite a lot about the League and its members, some more so than others and he does consider you a friend and someone he wants to protect
•He knows what it’s like to have a shitty parent and while he doesn’t like playing therapist or anything, he will lend an ear if you’re having a particularly hard time, but that’s a pretty rare occasion
•He’ll listen, but the only advice you’ll really get from him is “Why don’t you just kill her, or ruin her financially or somethin? Your mom’s a piece of shit”
•He doesn’t really care if you think he’s too harsh, because he feels like you need to hear that your mother is actually a piece of shit and that she’s not allowed to treat you like that, just because she’s your mother
•Opposed to what a lot of other people are telling you which is “She’s your family, you need to get along” or some other crap like that
•Dabi doesn’t really believe blood means much when it comes to family, you don’t need to be related to be family
•Besides, his experience with family and parents is that they eventually let you down and that he too was better off finding his own people
•He doesn’t think everyone’s family is total shit, but he’s convinced a lot of them are, because that seems to be the experience of everyone around him
•You appreciate his honesty and hearing that you don’t deserve to be treated like shit just because it’s coming from someone who supposedly loves you, is kind of freeing
•Even if it comes with offers to burn your mother, her house or both

The 95% verdict 💌 + commentary
since it’s 9/5, this will be the perfect opportunity to share some more details on the whole 95% story. @potteresque-ire already detailed it here but i wanna focus on the actual verdict. It’s so interesting how most of it sounds true, and the fact that this was shared back in 2018 when no one had any behind the scenes photos, videos or interviews to reference.
Tumblr media
I am not really a 100% believer in stuff like this but I have to admit that sometimes it has some truth to it. It’s not hurting anyone either to read what these people have to say and get some direction / insight into things.
Here goes the details of that reading between ZZ/WYB 😌 It’s not just the 95% calculation, there was a whole reading between them.
There is light, harmony, and joy in this relationship, and both parties benefit from it. The comfort of the soul is very conducive to the development of intimate relationships. You may not want to please each other freely, enjoy each other's company, but deep inside have a deep love for each other. If you live together, you will often have good family atmosphere, with both comfort and beauty. They satisfy each other, need each other, depend on each other and can be happy because of each other's existence.
As soon as I read this first part, I knew I had to make a CPN post. The thing about both parties benefiting is so true! Never mind what haters say that they “use each other” ( lol. I mean it’s partly right but without the negative connotation ) They really do benefit from being together, even as friends, they both bring out the best in e/o. Also the part about having a deep love even if they don’t show it sounds so much like 2018 ZZ/WYB. All the play fights and interactions we saw that make us roll our eyes cause they keep dancing around the fact that they are meant to be together. Finally, that bit about their home life. Ugh. I love domestic ZZ/WYB, and I’ve talked about that here. From cooking/washing to folding clothes and everything in between.
Tumblr media
This may be a romantic experience that is called “at first sight”. The possibility of love also means that you may establish a relationship like lightning. You may meet in some unusual situations or situations with strong the feeling of electric shock. It may be a time that makes each other highly excited and your relationship may also be unconventional or unusual. Yes, the way of getting along is often not the usual way, Xiao Zhan will be satisfied with Wang Yibo. The passion, freedom and new world brought by Bo have gained a lot from each other. You are also suitable for developing some unusual hobbies, such as astrology, science, occultism, ultra-modern art, etc. In addition, the more independent your minds are in this relationship, the higher the rapport will be, both can develop into like-minded good partners.
The whole at first sight prediction is giving me goosebumps. Only because this is what a lot of us have said. granted, they met in 2017 so the person making this reading might have taken some clue into that. However, this line : Xiao Zhan will be satisfied with Wang Yibo. Wait, satisfied? Satisfaction. Isn’t that ZZ’s solo song? How come. This reading was made 9/1/2018 and that song name wasn’t even out yet. Also the way it says ZZ will be the one satisfied and not the other way around. I also wanna know what unusual habits they developed because of their relationship. 🙃
There is a strong attraction between you, and even a sense of fate. Xiao Zhan - The appearance of Wang Yibo made him passionate, profound and full of desire. However, the relationship between you may not necessarily have too much relaxation, romance and comfort. pleasure, and more emphasis on strong emotions, complex experiences, overly obsessive— even a certain danger because of the fear of betrayal. In this relationship, Xiao Zhan needs to look directly at his inner demands, learn to give Wang Yibo trust and give himself a sense of security, otherwise it will be easy to have the feeling of being controlled and dominated by Wang Yibo. Maybe when love is too deep, it feels like that life is in the hands of the other party, I am even more afraid of being hurt. please remember, only trust can save the relationship from crisis and realize new life. If it is business partnership, when trust is established, you will dig out the hidden wealth and achieve win-win benefits.
and now we have come to a bit more controversial part of the reading. Do I believe that ZZ/WYB’s relationship is full of sunshine and rainbows? Of course not. I can only imagine what it must be like for them in the beginning. The uncertainty of it. Strong attraction? Fate? Definitely. and oh I love the bit here about Bobo making ZZ passionate. Yes. He definitely had that change in him when he met the gremlin and especially when they are together. Remember that this is only a reading, what is said about ZZ is here and the advice is not a fact. I wanna believe over time, as in any other relationships, they have found a balance that works for them.
Tumblr media
The highlight of this relationship is the connection and communication that you have. In the future, Xiao Zhan can intuitively understand Wang Yibo's thoughts and intentions and produce greater emotional fluctuations. Wang Yibo is very willing to put his thoughts and express it clearly to Xiao Zhan and give Xiao Zhan good advice. In a sentence: It is not uncommon to meet love and sex in life, but the strange thing is encounter understanding.
I like this part because it talks about the future and how their relationship became what it is today. Well, as soon the 2019 promos we can already see this understanding between them. The intuitive way they communicate. This is scarily accurate. I also like how WYB is supposedly expressing himself clearly to ZZ — knowing how WYB is most of the time, quiet, it makes me somft thinking he made the effort because he wants to reach an understanding with his zhan ge.
It can be said that meeting TA is the most comfortable way to get along and the most gentle companion. Xiao Zhan will feel full of joy, the feeling of being appreciated and accepted,Also enjoy the way Wang Yibo sees himself. Wang Yibo speaks from the heart. I love Xiao Zhan's way of doing things and behavior, never stingy with his own compliment. The two can be more considerate, tolerant, and respectful to each other. Live in harmony, enjoy the intimacy and sharing with each other.
When it comes to emotional patterns, you have strong similarities. This includes similarities in psychological feelings and emotional fluctuations, the inner need for a sense of security. Together, we can always understand each other's thoughts. The needs of the other party, full of deep tacit understanding and dependence, can do spiritual communication. It is very beneficial to a long-lasting, stable relationship.
A stable relationship. BXGs like to say this when it comes to them and I wanna believe that this is true. It does not mean they don’t have problems — they do, but they work it out. You can feel the sense of calm in when you watch them and that happiness. It affects and shows in everything they do. I hope it continues and they can live peacefully. 😊
Tumblr media
Again, this is not an avenue to aggressively speculate about their relationship/dynamics. The purpose of this post is to share more of the 95% story and why it’s such a popular part of fandom history.
- END.

is catradora a toxic ship? my opinion that no asked for :)
TW: discussion of toxicity, abusive relationships and trauma; pls take care of yourself :)
Hey snails,
I started rewatching She-ra and the Princesses of Power for the third time recently, so suffice to say I am a big fan. The ship catradora, which is the ship name for characters Adora and Catra in case you don’t know, is honestly very important to me as a lesbian. Calling a ship from a show ‘important’ may sound dramatic to some of you, but it’s the truth. I was just coming into my identity as a lesbian when I watched the show because I heard it had good queer representation. Catra and Adora’s relationship was one of the first relationships between two queer women that I’d seen in media which was actually written by a queer person, and it meant so much to me as a baby gay. I’m not even a particularly emotional person when it comes to the media I watch, so it surprised me when I got emotional watching their love confession scene for the first time. It was and still means a lot to me that ND Stevenson and everyone behind She-ra worked so hard to get representation in the show, and I’ll forever be grateful to them for doing so.
Now that I’m watching the show for the third time, however, I’m starting to view their relationship more critically. Perhaps due to me being older and more comfortable in my queer identity, along with seeing discussions of their relationship online. It is an unfortunate truth that Catra treats Adora like shit for most of the show. She is an undoubtedly toxic person, and that brings into question whether, after everything she’s done, she deserves Adora. I’m going to provide my own opinions on this discussion and analyse whether catradora is a toxic relationship. To do so, I’m going to split this discussion into three main categories - what makes a relationship toxic? What toxic behaviours are present between Catra and Adora? And, lastly, is catradora a toxic ship overall?
Firstly, what makes a relationship toxic in the first place? In my research, I found a quotation from an article by verywellmind.com (Toxic Relationships: Signs, Types, and How to Cope (verywellmind.com) which I feel sums it up quite well: ‘A relationship is toxic when your well-being is threatened in some way - emotionally, psychologically, and even physically’. A toxic relationship will provide more negativity than positivity to your life and well-being. A person in a toxic relationship may question why they even involved themselves with that person in the first place, but simultaneously find it difficult to let go of them due to happy memories shared and the manipulation tactics employed by the toxic person to keep the other person trapped in the relationship.
Common traits of a toxic relationship are gaslighting (making someone doubt their own thoughts and experiences), victim blaming, isolating the person from their loved ones, constant arguing - and having to walk on eggshells around them as a result, controlling behaviour and generally feeling bad after being around the toxic person for an extended period of time.
So, which of these signs of a toxic relationship are present between Catra and Adora, and how persistent are they throughout the five seasons? Catra is obviously the main person perpetrating most of these behaviours. She blames Adora for abandoning her and ruining their friendship despite Adora offering to bring Catra with her. In other words, Catra guilt trips her. She acts as if Adora was in the wrong for wanting to leave the Horde despite it being very understandable why she’d do so. This isn’t just a heat-of-the-moment reaction as well, as she continues to blame Adora for ‘abandoning’ her even after being given multiple chances to join Adora. There’s the more obvious abuse that takes place while they’re enemies, with Catra insulting Adora, physically hurting and trying to murder her - just casual stuff. She also attempts to separate Adora from her friends from the very beginning - trying to isolate her to make her more vulnerable and easy to manipulate. Catra guilt trips Adora and blames her for issues Catra caused; she belittles Adora constantly; and is generally a very manipulative person, not just to Adora but to other characters such as Entrapta who she’s meant to be friends with.
Of course, there is the elephant in the room that needs to be discussed, that being Catra and Adora’s shared trauma—due to Shadow Weaver treating Adora as the golden child who can do no wrong and Catra being the one who gets the blame for every mistake pinned on her. As a result, Adora has a saviour complex and Catra is starved for affection and validation, taking much of her anger out on the ‘perfect’ Adora who always received the favour from Shadow Weaver that Catra wanted. This makes her staying with the Horde more understandable. She wanted to prove herself to Shadow Weaver and perhaps saw Adora being gone as the perfect opportunity to do so. It can also provide an explanation for some of her toxic behaviour later on in the series, as it becomes clear that Catra is simply repeating the abusive behaviour she was subjected to her by her only mother figure as a child. It should not, however, excuse this behaviour completely, because even if her actions are understandable given the circumstances it doesn’t magically make everything she did to Adora okay. She treated Adora terribly and Adora is in her full rights to not forgive Catra if she wants to. But as anyone who has watched the show knows, she does forgive Catra in the end. So one must ask… was Catra’s redemption deserved?
In my opinion, as much as this ship means to me, Catradora is indeed toxic for most of the show. I believe the way Catra’s redemption arc was handled was the main issue. She stays a consistently bad person for all four seasons, showing a lack of a moral compass from the first episode. While the show does a great job making the audience pity her by showing her trauma involving Shadow Weaver, thus giving us insight into why she acts the way she does, it doesn’t necessarily mean she deserves redemption. She doesn’t show much sign that she’ll become good and join the rebellion until season five, where the switch happens very suddenly, and then they’re confessing their love for each other even more suddenly. Personally, if my old friend had been on the opposite side of a war and attempted to kill me multiple times, just to pull a 180 and say they’d always loved me, I think I’d have a hard time believing them. 
If I were to rewrite their relationship to make a redemption arc work, I think dedicating more time to Catra’s redemption arc would be beneficial. This could create more interesting dynamics between the characters as Catra works with the rebellion and slowly gains their trust, building a healthy relationship with Adora and working through their issues, so that by the time they’re getting together they’re both at points in their lives where they’ve healed from their shared trauma and are ready for a relationship. I do acknowledge that to some extent the show did this, but I believe it needed more time to truly redeem Catra as it rushed through her arc too quickly. Making Catra less murdery would also be a good idea in my opinion, since attempting to murder your significant other is a pretty hard thing to come back from. Or Catra could at least show some remorse and regret about it - it would still be bad, don’t get me wrong, but there could be a tragic element to it if Catra felt like she was forced to hurt Adora because of their circumstances and showed a lot of angsty regret while doing so. More signs that Catra still cares for Adora would be good, like in season 1 episode 9 where Catra begrudgingly delivers the sword to Adora and tells her to leave, helping her escape the Horde. More moments like this could show Catra’s love for Adora in a very in-character way and remind the audience that these two were actually very close at one point, thus making their reunion more satisfying. Lastly, after everything Catra has done I don’t think Adora should be required to forgive her. Although, it is a show primarily for children so I understand why they did have her do so as they wanted a happy ending.
Overall, I believe catradora could have been written better. Now that I’ve done research into both sides of this argument, I understand why people argue catradora is a toxic ship and to a certain extent, I agree with them. I don’t think this ship is beyond redemption, and neither is Catra, but Catra’s redemption arc could use some rewriting to make that happen. In other words, Catra should be more like Zuko from Avatar: The Last Airbender, rather than Azula, to who Catra is strikingly similar for most of the series. I will leave it at that. If you know, you know ;)
Thanks for reading :D
