The indecisive heart
Tumblr media
One Night, Carol left her notebook by accident in the libary and her friends found it... now it was her time to fess up about her crushes.
Tumblr media
Lessons were over, the sun was slowly setting as Carol returned to her room. She sighed given a lot of stress was behind her and she could now slowly take a breather… but then she noticed something about her bag. It was gone… the notebook she kept about her relationships, feelings and thoughts… despair set in her heart and the stress was back. She hoped she locked the book and just left it accidentally in the Library… she was about to rush out her room but then… 
She noticed commotion in the dorm and every of her friends looking at her… she noticed Keres held that same notebook in her hand… she gulped in terror as the group heard suddenly a knock. 
"Hey Carol, ready for the Su… shi… oh.." 
Leroy barged in but seeing the tense situation and Carol's notebook both him and Lyla put two and two together… that her friend discovered her secrets..  that they looked into the book at least. 
"Carollie, Mellomar and I already went through our crushes… seems it's your turn now." 
"Can you at least tell me how you got the book?" 
Orion smirked. "You left it open in the Library, be lucky we found it." 
She was the most terrified of what Kirsten made out of what she read already but given the situation she couldn't back down… after all they read enough and it was only fair she gave them the whole picture. So she took a deep breath. 
"Lyla, Leroy… I am sorry but I won't come to Sushi night." 
Leroy had a snarky smile on his face as he and Lyla sat down and spoke up
"And you think we just leave… we know most of yours anyways and… this could be fun." 
Carol let out an exhausted sigh. If only today wasn't that loaded with work… if only the stress didn't make her forget it, then she wouldn't be in this situation. 
'But also maybe it does help talking about this to finally make a decision myself… ' she thought to herself.  The group of friends all settled down comfortable in the Ramshackle lounge. Orion seemed to keep the notebook a bit away from Melody,  Carol could guess why, Melanie instead tried to chat with her and Hinata a little while Keres and Kirsten looked at her with somewhat sharp eyes, Nyphy was looking curious at Leroy's tail while he and Lyla mumbled about how many they could guess. As Carol took a deep breath to brace herself for this. 
"You can ignore the first few pages, cause they are the only people that bother me." 
Hinata looked down as he read 3 names that were all too familiar with him, blushing a little as some of the others in the room looked at him worried or groaned. Carol gave a disappointed look as Kirsten spoke up.
“You should have just kicked Barry, then he wouldn’t bother you.”
“That's just not the person I am… anyways I just keep these few notes to avoid people that give me headaches so, moving on.”
She knew if they badmouthed them and lingered Hinata would feel bad so she quickly derailed the topic and tried to steer them to the first candidate.
_____________________________________________________
“That one was an obvious one, it's Jamie.” Keres exclaimed pointing at the book. Melanie suddenly raised her head in surprise. “Really?! I didn’t expect you to like him too.”
“Wait… too?”
Melanie suddenly shut her mouth as if saying something she shouldn’t have said but Carol gave a satisfied nod and smile escaping her with a blush… as Kirsten coughed telling her to speak up subtly. Keres looked back at Mel.
“It was pretty obvious how she looked at him when he was training. Those eyes were staring.”
“Hey it's not only that!”
“I also saw her read a lot of books about Knights lately.” Melody smiled innocently as Carol looked back at the group. Leroy snickering in the back. 
“He is just… such a gentleman to me, he puts people that bother me in place, helps me when I struggle to get through Ace and Deuce, and just being close to him… it makes my heart race… and of course as you mentioned before he is very attractive to me as well. And well it's true those books might have given me a romanticized view of Knights too but just… seeing that smirk… having him near and eating something nice with him… “
She looked off dreaming a little as Orion stood up and gave her a pat on the back.
“T-that is all I wanna say about him, anyways moving on.”
______________________________________________________
“Hey Melody, can you get us some popcorn to snack on?” Orion exclaimed as Melody got up with a happy nod… Kirsten turned to the next page and looked serious at Carol.
“You know what we did this… why the hell is Melody's brother Rowan on here?”
Carol froze up…Leroy was about to say something as Kirsten gutted her elbow into his side. “Ouch.”
“I wanna hear it from her.”
“R-right… I didn’t want it to happen myself but… as I met him we got into talks about Flowers and I had some curiosities about certain types and its meaning, so I gave him my number and.”
“Bold Carollie… very bold.”
“I c-couldn’t help it… he has those soft eyes, this nice muscular body… this gentle nature I just… he was so sweet and I just felt more and more happy chatting with him.”
Orion laughed in the back a little as Melanie looked up at her with a smile.
“You seem to like him a lot though from how you talk… and I can get it, I love tending to flowers so it's nice to get to talk to someone.”
Hinata also nodded. “Also that blonde is a nice shade on him.”
Carol nodded with a smile. “Around him I just feel I can nerd about plants and he listens to me… as well as the flowers I got from him… I keep them dear. “
Kirsten groaned. “Urgh just move on. I don’t wanna sit here forever.”
________________________________________________
Melody came in with the bucket and looked at the group. 
“Did I miss something?”
“Nothing important, you wouldn’t know the person anyways.”
As she said that she could feel some judgemental stares from Keres and Kirsten at her before they turned the page.
This time Melanie looked in first.
“Oh Jonas is a sweetheart, I can get you with that.”
Keres tilted their head. “But you do know that he is- Ouch my boob.”
Kirsten left a swift punch at them as if to tell Carol to continue as she pressed her fingers together.
“Yes I know and I don’t care. He brought me happiness not only by bringing me back to Piano and so honoring my friend Eve who is not here, he was nothing but a cute and sweet guy that I just love being around… “
Melody clapped her hands and smiled. “Seeing you next to each other also gives me those wholesome couple vibes.”
Carol blushed a little hearing that… Most looks at her were in approval as she carried on.
_________________________________________
Orion tilted her head. 
“Do any of you guys know this Vigil guy?”
Lyla spoke up. “Even Leroy and I haven’t seen him yet, we at first thought she imagined him up.”
Keres perked their head up. “I do remember Carol telling me about him after I ran away from Achilles that he saved her from an attack but… that is all I know about him… can you tell us more?”
“It's a bit complicated to explain myself… he is somewhat of a guardian angel… and I mean he literally is an angel… I can’t even choose when I get to see him, he just appears, gets me out of an uncomfortable situation and has to leave again… yet… that he goes out of his way to help me and to see him like that… it does make my heart race.”
“Yes she became crazy…” Kirsten sighed. “I AM NOT.”
Melanie spoke up. “She really isn’t… I saw by accident how something like that happened and he is real…”
“Good… cause I actually thought sometimes if I dreamt him up…”
Nyphy spoke up. “So you fell for someone you literally don’t even know exists?”
Carol sighed… “Did you ever feel something if you read a book and liked a character so much you swooned for him… anyways let's just drop this all I can say is… if he is real or not… I just appreciate all he does and… I wish I could see him more often.”
________________________________________
Suddenly as Keres turned the page they started blushing.
“No way, you too?”
“What is Keres?” Melody tilted her head.
Melanie looked over. “Oh my…”
“Not only does she also have Jesh on her list just like me… but Lustre and Maya are right after.”
Carol hid her face red in shame before speaking up.
“L-Listen… as I often went to the mansion to tutor Sin the three made me feel a bit homey there… I just find all three very attractive… even if Jesh’s attitude goes on my nerves… that is all, nothing more nothing less.”
As she tries to defend herself Leroy smirks as well as Orion mumbling while Lyla just avoids her face, mainly because she actually knows what has been going on in Carol's head.
“It's probably also for dir-”
Before Leroy could speak up, Lyla scruffed him by his neck as if to tell him to be quiet.
Looks were exchanged as Carol just grew in red panic and mess before them.
“It's mainly just Lustre and Maya treating me well and making me comfortable and weak, Jesh is just literally his attractiveness that draws me to him… that is my honest opinion, c-can we move on?” Keres nodded in approval as with a smile as the rest turned the page.
________________________________________
Melody looked curious as she pointed at a page.
“Kalida… isn’t he from Scarabia?”
“Doesn’t he have stitches on his mouth, what is up with that?”
Carol cleared her throat. 
“It is because he is part Naga… He may seem intimidating to many but getting to know him… he is to me very sweet and just misunderstood. “
“Wait, so does that mean he is Venomous?” Keres asked.
“Lennox is too and he seems to swirl around both Melody and Melanie so hush. I met him in the library and even if he is less on the talkative side, there is something charming about him… I feel he deserves love but doesn’t get it much. And his flute playing also calms me a lot.”
Orion snickered. “Something tells me you will have a lot of tall monsters on your list.”
“You… would be right in that regard but… to sum it up… I just care about Kalida a lot and hope he gets accepted more…”
_________________________________________
Suddenly Melody looked a bit confused. 
“Carol what is this “potential” thing that is next to the name?”
"Oh! Those are people that I don’t have  an actual crush on but are close to me. It could be that I have feelings but don’t realize them.”
Keres suddenly seemed more awake and looked over the book.
“No way then… then Henry Lakeside is-”
Suddenly Leroy spat the Soda he was drinking and Carol looked away from him.
“NO WAY YOU WROTE DOWN MY BOSS! WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME?”
“Cause I knew you would react that way? And as said I wrote him down as potential, I could be wrong but I do like a lot about him.”
Lyla tried to calm Leroy down but he still talked. 
"She deserves far better than this stuck up ass rich man. "
Carol coughed fakely as if to tell him to shut Up and he did. 
"The reason I put him here is I do enjoy spending time with him. I often worry about him overworking as well as… He does look handsome and also treats me well in regards with respect and helping me as well. I feel close to him." 
"Tch… it just makes me sick… his family can be so corrupt and you're just not… fine I will be quiet. "
The other girls looked more in understanding while Leroy grumbled away as Lyla noticed something.
____________________________________
"Why is there an arrow to the next site?" 
Carol nodded as if realizing something. 
"Well… I met Nauwe thanks to Henry… and he does seem to have interest in him as well…" 
Keres chuckled. 
"You as well think about I can take them both-"
Once again Kirstens annoyed stare shut them up as they sat down. 
"IT'S NOT THAT…I compared Henry to actually having a crush on him…he and his culture are very fascinating…and-"
"Isn't that also a guy who walks around Shirtless 24/7?"
"Keres,you can't talk."
"You two are so predictable…" 
For once both Carol and Keres shrugged at the same time as Melanie and Melody laughed a little… the previous tense mood lifted and Leroy calmed down as they continued. 
"Anyways another thing you will not only notice with Nauwe but with some others on this list is… I also am interested in learning other languages to understand people. More and… there is something that sends shivers down my spine when someone attempts to court someone like that."
_______________________________________________
"You probably brought that up because of Esca right?" 
Melanie had the book in her hand and asked. 
"Y-yes… the way he pins me to the wall… the way he calls me Mi Amor… I am just- "
"Urgh we get it, keep it in your panties. "
Kirsten snapped at her as Carol tried to dust off something from her skirt and continued..
"It's not only that… just seeing how he takes care of his cats is precious… the way he always gives off this gentle aura… I just feel swoon by it.”
Orion leaned back and grabbed some popcorn into her mouth. 
“Dang, some of the other picks seemed more exciting.”
“What did we expect from Miss Righteous?”
“Trust me, I saw some interesting things Carollie put here…”
As Keres smirked Carol shortly worried what they meant and continued.
__________________________________________________
“And on that topic, who I put under potential was also Azure… I met him in RSA when I was on my way to teach Fabio under a tree and even though I do care a lot about him as a friend… Yuuta tries to set us up as a couple and it doesn't help."
"It's good he is out currently…" 
"If he was here I knew he would just shut down any of my other crushes and push for the ones profitable to him." 
Melanie spoke up after Carol complained.  
"But you do actually feel something for him or else you wouldn't have put him In here." 
"Yes I do enjoy Azure's company a lot and when he is near me… but just a lot makes me unsure… For one I don't wanna give Yuuta the satisfaction of thinking he got us together and I also don't even know if Azure would be interested in me romantically." 
Melody and Melanie put a Hand on her shoulder.
"You can always try asking him… subtly." 
"Maybe… let's move on, we still have lots to go through."
____________________________________________
As the next topic was brought up someone wanted to actually get out of his room but stopped as he overheard the conversation.  
"Des, huh Is it alright to even talk about him when he is here in the dorm." 
Carol played with her hair and blushed. 
"I think the walls are thick enough for him to not hear us. But well … aside from him helping me with that wayfinder I wanted to make, he is just to me very supportive… he has that charm about him and the times he complimented me as being his model for drawing makes me happy." 
"What I learned today is that Melanie, Keres and Carol are all blind to people liking them back." 
"Huh?!" 
As Kirsten said that bluntly all three looked confused at her as Carol explained herself. 
"I just wanna be sure and don't interpret any kindness in that. But anyways… Des is just a person I can always rely on to feel well around."
From the previous door Des closed it to not give away he heard their whole conversation… This was his secret for now… as the girls moved on.
_______________________________________________
Keres chuckled reading the next name. 
"Well this one has an obvious crush on her from what I saw…" 
"Oh Punch, isn't he in Kirstens dorm?" 
"I don't pay attention to some nerds." 
As Leroy heard her say that annoyed, he somewhat looked down. 
Melody asked her more about it. 
"Punch to me is somewhat of a buddy… we are in the board game club together and I get along with his sister well too… yet I only put him under potential because we are that close. But you really think he has a crush on me." 
"Carollie… it is way too obvious… he always hides that blush around you." 
"I-I see… I never thought people would actually be liking me this much…"
In particular Leroy, Nyphy and Kirsted stared at her judgy while Hinata chuckled.  
"That you get so many following you and being close to you is proof enough."
Orion laughed."If we went by that, Keres would be popular just cause so many people chase them but that is not the case."
Keres sighed as Carol let out a chuckle. 
"Either way, Punch is a sweetheart but seems often a bit too wholesome that I feel I would overwhelm him so…"
______________________________________________________
"Wait, I thought you would stay away from Kombatra at all cost, why is Kaminari on this list?" Melanie seemed confused. She was often visiting Kierron there so she must know.
"I met him outside the dorm and we often drink tea together… he allows me to watch him train and I often join him too. He has… this very soothing aura to me and…. His eyes are really beautiful. I just feel not only safe around him… I feel like thanks to him I grow a lot myself too.”
“Angels, Deities, you really don’t shy away from anything.”
“Come to think of it, she has many long living people on her list, you know they will probably outlive you.”
“That is a risk I am willing to take… if it's to be with someone I care a lot about.”
As she said that so determined many gave her a light smile however Melanie seemed the most happy about her choices.
“But I did see how you are next to him, it feels like you are far less stressed and just happy… so I can see why he somewhat became a safespace for you.”
With a determined smile she nodded yet Lyla spoke up.
“I think we are halfway there right, who is next?”
____________________________________________
Eventually a sigh escaped Keres as they read the next name.
“Not you too… you also have a crush on Florence like Melanie….”
Carol flushed a little and put her finger together as Leroy spoke up.
“Oh that guy often went to our Sushi nights. I remember, today he said he was busy with the infirmary.”
“Florence not only helps me with my curiosity about medicine and getting better at taking care of others, it's so nice of him to often check up on me and see that I don’t overwork myself… “
“If that is what you care for, she does that often also if you don’t want it.”
“Keres!” Melanie looked at them as they sighed.
“I am sorry but I just really can’t stand it, It always feels so off.”
“That is fine, you don’t have to like him, but I really adore how sweet he can be with his comments and how well he reacts to praise… it's cute to make him blush.”
Melody chuckled. “He really is cute, I understand.”
_______________________________________________
Keres laughed at the next choice.
“Guess many of us can agree on Daido but I am surprised… you do know he does cause a lot of destruction right?”
This was the first time Carol actually stood in silence searching for an explanation but then she spoke up.
“I feel he needs someone to be there to calm him and take care of him… he always seems so tired… as well as he has Kimi to take care of. “
“‘I can fix him’ mentality huh… but I can understand you crushing on him, have you seen his body?”
Kirsten once again punched the back of the head from Keres to keep them from speaking, visibly tired from listening to this… 
“Given he is already pretty popular I hardly think I have a chance but… That doesn’t stop me from maybe having some hopes… and I do also enjoy just helping him out with school work.”
_______________________________________________
Melody got curious, flipping the page.
“But you noted Raede as well?”
As the group looked into the book they gasped a little, Kirsten having a small smirk that already bodes terrible to her too.
“Dos of all people too… you really are after Single fathers huh? Isn’t he also the one who beat up someone till he was bloody?”
“I never said my taste is perfect… but I still have people on my list that have the potential to change or just didn’t murder anyone.”
“You never know-”
Melanie tried to break up the commotion by commenting.
“Anyways, can you tell us why you like them?”
“Right… Raede in all not only that I take care of Raysel, he is very sweet in giving me flowers, as well as often spending time with him in the greenhouse and talking about some Romance stories is calming… even if I myself also have fallen for Daido, I feel Raede also deserves more people who appreciate him. Dos meanwhile… I did go for an exchange to DAC where two of my crushes came from and just seeing those big eyes look at me as I played with trinity and told something about me, he seemed a very sweet listener even if a bit odd.”
“To me this only sounds you are into di-”
“Tch…” Leroy shivered as Kirsten had this glare at him again.
“Alright I stop before Kirsten punches me again.”
_____________________________________
“So let me guess, Parker also started a crush from  that exchange?”
Hinata sighed as he looked at the picture they had as Kirsten gave him a punch in the arm. 
“We get it if you like blondes… Carol, do you even know anything about this man?”
“Not much actually… but the time I was at the exchange program… there was just something about him that drew me in… he watched out for me… he did also show me how to use a gun a little…”
“And you didn’t ask yourself that it's odd that he knows very well how to use one?” “Kirsten… he is from a combat school.”
“So you know him well Kirsten?” Melanie asked.
“I heard rumors… he is polite I must admit but… I would watch out.”
Carol gave a nod. “If I ever feel unsafe I will back off.”
“Tch you all are pathetic and hopeless with your crushes really.”
_______________________________________
She sat back and drank some soda as Leroy watched her curiously, Lyla sighing next to him.
“Explain to us more why you have not one but two Vampires on your list?”
Keres pointed to the pages of Damien and Daniel next to another.
“Come on you say that like you don’t stare at Alucard a lot despite him being hella intimidating.”
“This is about you, not me.”
Carol sighed and suddenly flushed red thinking about the both.
“Damien is to me just very much like one of the book protagonists I would fall for… how many times he pulled me to the side and protected me…Those red striking eyes that looked at me in interest, he often also catched my fall… hah…there is something very attractive about him.
Daniel on the other hand… I managed to help him with his troubles through training.”
“I saw this ‘training’ . It seemed more like a free pass to stare at him.”
“It's more so I try to understand him more, but you would also be right that he does often get me a little more to be a mess, often his comments make me slip up and make me blush like crazy… but it's more so me wanting to guide him to a better life you could say… ignoring my crush… I do want to make his life better than what I feel he went through.”
Melody jumped up. “And you wouldn’t mind becoming a Vampire from them as well?”
“I am… unsure but maybe… I know when it comes to blood I am more worried but… if it means staying longer with them, I would.”
The Group went silent, some in concern, others smiling at her… mixed reactions all around as she quickly tried to get back.
“Um l-let's just move on for now.”
____________________________________________
“For fucks sake, you have Watson on this list…”
Kirsten gritted her teeth in annoyance.
“I know he seems odd but there is something charming about his oddness… he is also pretty romantic which I enjoy. “
Orion chuckled. “I feel Kirsten is more annoyed cause he attempted to give her a rose too and she punched him in the gut in return.”
"Oh, really?"
Kirsten grumbled a little as Leroy spoke up.
“I did hear that he seemed to be a former delinquent… at least Greg mentioned something.”
“The past is the past, the times I met him he was just very much someone charming. I also did talk to him and it seems more like his brother's influence…”
“Can we just fucking move on… I get tired hearing about him.”
__________________________________________
“Wait, aren’t Adam and Terry your students? And isn’t Adam a prince?”
Melody shouted excited…
“I wonder why you even have Terry on the list when he is just staring at your chest a lot…”
“I noticed, don't worry…  but there is more to that… let me just.”
She took a bottle of water and drank from it because she had been talking for a while.
“Terry is one of my hard to get something done with students… but he also is often in the Library as I am so it feels comfortable to just chat a lot… he did also offer to help me get better at running and so I tutor him a lot. I put him under potential cause again… in that regard I feel he likes me more than I like him but that could change… there is something about him that often makes it hard for me to refuse things or want to spend time with him.”
Keres chuckled. “It's the wolf's eyes, cause I remember you mentioned on the page with Jesh too that you get weak when they use their eyes on you.”
Quickly she grew bright red. “H-Hey no fair you remember that!”
She tried to calm down and went back to talking.
“Adam on the other side is one of my hardest working students and I notice that… I am also just happy that he often does enjoy my failed food experiments and eats them happily. But I think the reason I mainly like him is… it's really uncomplicated to just talk to him about things and he is always so kind to me. And even if others find some of his puns or flirt attempts odd, I actually find them entertaining.”
“Be glad you found a dumpster for that horrid food, I mean didn’t the last one you made move.”
“Kirsten!” 
As she shrugged Nyphy looked in horror… “It really did look scary.”
Carol looked down… but then suddenly had an idea.
________________________________________
“Well there are actually two people who help me improve that and are also on this list… Adam is also one but… Ronald also helps me a lot to improve.” 
“I feel half of your picks on crush are either just normal guys or monsters.”
Melody smiled after Orion said that.
“Oh I remember this guy,  the treats that dorm makes are amazing.”
Carol nodded approvingly.
“He noticed once that I had struggled with cooking and since then I just enjoyed chatting with him, even if it often seems he scolds me a lot for wanting to do too much at once. I appreciate just him being there talking to me as well as listening to him teach me how to prepare some dishes.”
“Then you should chat less and focus more on what he is teaching you or else you will create more blobs.”
Some giggles went around the room as Hinata spoke up.
“It can't be that bad.”
“How about you try one then?”
Carol sighed and took some purple taffys that looked like they were breathing out of her pocket. Hinata gulped but then ate some of them, humming happy.
“They taste good, I don’t know what you guys mean.”
Carol's eyes lit up in happiness as the rest of the group sighed… 
“Only 3 pages left it seems, let's just finish this off.”
__________________________________________
Leroy suddenly perked up.
“No way, Sawyer… I only heard about him from Gregory and he seemed grumpy and scaryas I saw him.”
“Well that sounds up Carollies taste from what we saw for sure.” Keres said a bit teasingly. 
Carol adjusted her glasses and cleared her throat again.
“He is part of the Kendo club, you might have seen him as well Keres, given you know Nanoya.”
“I don’t see half of these other members.”
The group went silent. Carol just tried to continue the conversation.
“Sawyer does have a tough shell… to many he may seem mean but I seen more behind it, at first I also thought he just disliked anyone but… getting to know him and having the chance to see him more… he actually does care and he actually did help me a lot despite me not asking him too…  I still can’t tell if I even have a chance at him but… I at least wanna try to know why he is like that and be there for him as well.”
“Just don’t get your hopes up too much, Carol… Greg said he basically doesn’t talk to any of his dorm members… however this means at least.. maybe it's a good thing you can talk to him.”
Lyla took the book and went to the next page.
______________________________________
“So about Cho-hee?”
Keres suddenly perked up again.
“I totally understand her with that actually. He is a cutie.”
Orion looked in the group. “He is in my dorm, I wanted to fight him a lot and always found a way to dodge me.”
“I am glad you didn't. I feel lots of people also just dismiss him because of those scars when a heart of gold is under there.”
“You really are into scars in general huh… many of your pics have them.”
“Maybe… I want to mend them… make them better. But that is not the point here… just having Cho-hee around…I feel happy. Especially when he gets embarrassed and tries to hide his face… it's just the sweetest. “
“You really have something for sea creatures too huh?”
“THIS ISN’T ABOUT MY TYPE.”
_______________________________________
She sighed and took the notebook back from the girl's hands into hers.
“So lastly is Emrys, a powerful magician, very easy to talk to and he does his best to teach me about things I didn’t know.”
“So you two basically are teaching each other?” Melody asked as Carol nodded.
“And another likely ancient guy to her pile too.”
She sighed hearing the comments and tried to calm.
“I don’t only like him because of that, the things he can do are impressive, he is often there to just answer my questions and support me, as well as keep an eye out for anything he can help me with. I enjoy his company a lot.”
“You really are in some regards a hypocrite Carol.”
Keres chuckled a little as Carol got pouty.
“Excuse me, but at least I did not name some obvious murderers or people that are just bad news all around.”
Kirsten seemed tired and got up as Leroy and Lyla looked at the time.
“Midnight… guess we really did talk long.”
“Can I please ask them not to touch my notebook? Yes it will get longer but it is actually my private space to get my thoughts off and in order.”
Orion smirked. “We can’t make any promises.”
And so Orion, Hinata, Kirsten and Nyphy left for their dorms. Leroy and Lyla put a smile on and looked at her.
“I still don’t like that you do like my boss but… ugh I guess I gotta accept it.”
“Just be careful about your decision, we don’t want you to get hurt.”
“I know… I can rely on you two.. and Lyla I know I can tell you anything.”
“I am glad I knew most of this and you did tell me a lot, or else I would have worried you don’t trust me as your friend.”
Both of them left as well only for her to sit with Melanie and Melody.
“That was brave of you Carol to tell so much about them.”
“I know Kirsten will use it against me but… better to be proud of it now and be called a Hypocrite than never talking about it at all… maybe this night helped me to make a decision.”
“It's just good to see so many people care about you.”
Melody finished the last of the popcorn and then asked something.
“Actually, who was the person I missed during the talks?”
Suddenly Carol grew in panic again.
“Um I feel a bit tired, hope you don’t mind me going to sleep, good night.”
She clung onto her notebook and rushed off to her room… sighing in relief this was all over.

Things non-comic fans get wrong about Peter Parker.
Several people who don't read the comics seem to get ideas about characters and how they act. It's fine when you're doing to characters you know about, but for characters you don't know about, not so much.
Please note: This post is not meant to gate keep anyone from comics, MCU or any other Marvel related products.
#1: He is ugly. This one is false for the most part. Look at the women he has dated, Liz Allan, Gwen, MJ, Black Cat, Carol Danvers and others.
#2: He is naive. This one is also false. Peter is optimistic. There is a difference. Peter himself recognizes that the world is a terrible place. However he thinks it can get better. That is the whole point of him not killing his enemies.
#3: He has to suffer to be relatable. No, just no. This one is false. He doesn't have to suffer to be relatable. He is relatable because he deals with relatable problems. He is nerdy, has to make ends meet, etc. That is how he was relatable. Not suffering. And certainly not whatever the f#ck is going on in the current run.
#4: He is hated by other heroes. This one mainly stems from the Superior Spider-Man comic arc, but is still blatantly wrong. He has several friends in the comics, such as: Daredevil, Deadpool (to an extent) Wolverine, Luke Cage, Johnny Storm, Cloak and Dagger, and several others.
#5: He is not respected by the other heroes. This was also caused by Superior Spider-Man. However several people respect him. Mr. Fantastic and Iron Man respect him for his intelligence. Captain America calls him on of the greatest men he's ever known. Thor says (in a complimentary way) that he was the most mortal man he knew. T'Challa let him eat a Heart-Shaped Herb. Hulk was one of the few people who knew Peter's identity after OMD.
#6: He was a teenager for most of his publication history. The first ever Spider-Man comic was published in August 1962 in Amazing Fantasy #15. He he graduated and became an adult on June 8, 1965 in The Amazing Spider-Man Volume 1 #28.

Skullgirls fans!
What’s your top 3 ships? I’m trying to get a sense of what kind of ships are popular around here, since there don’t really seem to be any obvious ships that dominate the fandom. I’ll go first:
1. Filia/Carol (Filiwheel? Idk): I like Filia, I like sad people getting to be happy, and this one seems like it’s likely to be canon. It has the “and they were roommates” type swag. Filia is shown in the comic to have a picture of Carol on her dresser, which is not very heterosexual of her. Anyway it’s cute and I’m biased towards Filia.
2. Big Band/Ileum (Lab Parents or something like that): My personal rarepair since no one knows who Ileum is :’( but idk I just like wholesome parents and stuff. Also they are canonically close at least, so
3. Peacock/Marie (Peamarie!): Based on my understanding this is the most popular ship in the fandom, I like it a lot. I think the Marie story mode and/or the webcomic will make it canon.

[ cup & kiss ] CAROL AND NICKKK!!!!! 😭
[ cup & kiss ]  –  for the sender’s muse to cup the receiver muses’ face during an incredibly passionate and long overdue kiss.
Most, if not all, deployments were agony. There were not enough letters to be sent or two minute phone calls to be had that could hold Nick Bradshaw over. Towards the end, he always got antsy, filled to the brim with excitement. So much so that it was nearly contagious to Mav. Goose often found himself explaining to Mav that one day he’d understand what it was like. 
It only made sense for the R.I.O to drop his seabag the moment he was off of the docked aircraft carrier and rush to his wife in waiting. 
Tumblr media
His arms are outstretched long before embracing her figure. The smile on his face and gleam in his light brown eyes speaks a volume.  The passionate kiss that follows marking their reunion speaks far more volume than any words he could possibly come up with. 
Carole’s soft hands rise up and cup his face before he realizes it. Nick can’t help but smile at her tender touch. It results in a soft laugh brushing against Carole’s lips. As much as he loved flying, there was no where else he wanted to be in this very moment.
