I’ve been avoiding tumblr so I can know absolutely nothing about the sunshine court (slightest details feel like spoilers to me) (I wanna go in completely blind)
Also, art block has been a real mean bitch. I can’t finish anything
I do feel like I’ve neglected y’all tho since I’ve been workin in my sketchbook and I don’t post those doodles here
So here’s some wips!
Tumblr media
I recently watched Jennifer’s Body and my sister wanted me to draw Allison as Jennifer (Allison’s Body AU for the wip?👀)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I saw that ppl were making aftg ocs so I wanted to try sharing some of my own (y’all know I’m crazy about making ocs) I was gonna draw one or two from each of the teams (original teams and canon teams) but I only got so far
First guy is Achillesz, captain of the Fennecs (originally known as wild dogs) Eris, striker for the Ravens 2023 (I was thinking of changing her to goalie) and Marlynn, dealer for the Hyenas
I was also going to draw one of my Foxes but again, art block is killing me
Tumblr media
Drawing Milo looking in the mirror vs when he’s older (older vers wasn’t saved cuz again, art block)
Tumblr media
Hazbin designs for the Twinyards (not an AU!)
I did it for fun, not an AU yet. All I’ll share about it is that Andrew died in that car crash with Tilda and Aaron over dosed afterward
These are the only prototypes I actually saved. Final designs will definitely be different
Tumblr media
Nicky sticker for the sticker sheet wip
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My sister recently rewatched Bridgerton in preparation for the new season and she asked me to make an AU but with Milo and his future partner. She wants Milo to be Daphne so I was redrawing a scene (I can’t show the full redraw yet )
Here are some things my sister decided for the AU
- Milo is Neil’s son from a past relationship
- Neil and Andrew have multiple kids (but not as many as the Bridgertons actually do)
- Andrew died in an accident (no bee because I convinced her not to)
- Jean plays the role of Lady Danbury
- Kevin is Queen Charlotte lmao
- Milo is the diamond of the Exy season

a random day dream for you if you'd like.
Imagine A: Tinky himself can go in and out of the box to mess with Ted and any Spankoffski inside as he pleases.
B: he can somehow carry the box while inside the box. For everyone BUT Tinky, that box could also be the key out. Or at least it's rumored to be by those inside.
C: As basically a time god, the moment someone makes the decision to do something, Tinky could potentially see it coming if he's focused enough.
Imagine one day while messing with however many different timelines of Ted in the box, one version of Ted actually got bold. Instead of running, he tries to get the drop on Tinky to get the box and fails. But Tinky's amused enough by the attempt he makes a new game out of it. Basically "take this pebble from my hand" with the energy of roommates fighting over the remote. After many failed attempts (cause of course one of the only moments Tinky actively uses this kinda time sight is when he's messing with someone.) Ted gets desperate enough to decide the only weapon he's got left...is the ol Spankoffski charm. This time he reaches not for the box, but Tinky himself and pulls him into a kiss.
The moment Tinky sees it coming catches him off guard enough that the moment it happens, he's a flustered mess twice in a row. Like brain sounds like dial up for a good long minute even after Ted pulls back and runs with the box in his hands.
It may very well have been the moment Ted went from favorite toy to Tinky's hopeless crush. And then the moment after, the realization that his box is missing would send Tinky after that Ted like a bat outta hell.
Just the most out of nowhere daydream I ever got that I thought you might appreciate.

This took up 2 whole pages in my sketchbook, but I had to draw it. I couldn't stop thinking about this since you sent this ask
Anyways, I love this and I love you so much, this is amazing and you are brilliant. This is canon in the little tinkoffski story in my brain now. This is 100% what kicks it all off. I feel like Tinky would run off to Stopwatch after this to ask about what it in the world emotions are, cuz he's the only human he'd be willing to talk to. After all, he couldn't go to his brothers about it cuz A: they wouldn't know either and B: they'd 10000% judge him for it, or worse. From then on Tinky starts going to Daniel whenever he needs help with human issues and slowly but surely starts learning how to be less evil, lol

Mid-2023 Update (+bonus)
Current Status: Hiatus — my mental and physical health has lately being improving, busy working on myself first, and also found myself in a relationship (taken)
UnderDespair is temporarily inactive — remaking prologue for the final time due to exposition dumping at the very beginning for non-Undertale (AU) and/or Danganronpa fans — to be announced for the newest part (+prologue's remake)
New scifell contents are currently on hold — Thanks to my future partner, I'm overloaded with too many scifell inspirations (cuz he's a science/history nerd) and currently hoarding all of the ideas until my come back!
I MIGHT reblog other people's scifell content again — there was a glitch when I reblogged some posts, my reblog comment and their art was swapped after posting it, so hopefully it's fixed so I can share other people's scifell contents again — if you exclusively like to view my works only, feel free to check my Blogger instead!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
↑ This is the example of the reblogging glitch I'm referring — sorry @tumpilmungil for using your old deleted posts as examples...! ;;
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Personal Update
Lately, I've been trying to use Twitter and started doodling in a pocket sketchbook whenever I want to vent or rant as a healthier way to express myself.
As for the work in progress screenshot (from the very top), it's for the "secret dating AU" prompt and also a coincidence that I've been secretly friends and dating with my boyfriend this year.
Tumblr media
Anyway, thank you for reading this far and hope to see you again as soon as I'm back with explosive contents...! ><
P.S. I lately got into tarot reading (gonna use it in UDAU too!) and love this skeleton deck! <3

radio free america! [ 1/8 ]
pairing—steve rogers x barista!reader
summary—a cute guy forget's his sketchbook and it's up to the equally cute barista to make sure it's returned safely into his arms
warnings—lots of angst from Steve's pov, crushes at first sight, idiots who like each other, this doesn't really need a warning, meet-cute?? , set months before the events of the battle in New York
a/n—they definitely didn't show enough of what Steve might have felt waking up 70 years into the present
The man woke up from a war and almost immediately was thrown into another
THE MAN NEEDS THERAPY
the endgame ending only happened cuz my man still had unpacked trauma from everything
❥ owner of a lonely heart
Tumblr media
he felt many emotions as he woke up 70 years into the present
he felt so afraid not knowing a single thing as he opened his eyes
Is he dead?
If he's alive, where's Peggy?
Why did the radio say the game of '41? it's supposed to be 1945
he felt more scared as he was welcomed by a stranger
After running away from the fake room made to look like a hospital room he was in, he finds himself in a stranger – more modern version of New York that he could hardly recognise
Everyday since waking up, he'd just feel lost most of the time — a man lost in time.
There were more buildings and billboards that were lit up.
Tumblr media
He thought he died, everybody did.
Maybe he should have died , because he never asked to be alive after 70 years as he knew sacrificing his life was worth it.
it’s still weird for him to see everything has passed,his friends were gone and Peggy already lived her life without him.
it felt strange exploring New York, there were more buildings, more variety of foods.
It's new territory and he felt isolated, like a newborn exploring a new world without training wheels.
He wasn't lost too much, he's a 27 year old and some things came easy to understand.
He didn’t know what purpose he had left.They won the war and he had saved the city from being hit by the Valkyrie.
Everything was high tech compared to his time, electronics were a bit confusing to understand but he did find it fascinating that everything could be easily stored and done using a small square of a phone that you could bring easily anywhere .
Tumblr media
… but what’s left for him when he has lost everything?
Bucky fell of the train,the Howling commandos were gone and it’s too late for him and Peggy.
He basically had nothing left to live for yet he's given a second chance that he didn't know what to do with.
He felt distraught that day when he was given their files, every single one of the Howling Commandos were marked deceased except Peggy’s.
He didn’t have the courage to call Peggy, he didn’t even know what he’d say in the first place.
' Hi, I'm not dead and I'm stuck in my 27 year old body????? I was stuck in the ice like a freaking popsicle Peggy! I'm sorry we never got our dance ... '
He’s all alone and absolutely out of place in the world he’s now forced to live in.
He felt like God was playing a cruel joke on him.
He would go out strolling and see everything has changed.
He just wanted to go back as that skinny guy from Brooklyn with his best pal.
Everyday he'd be at the gym assaulting gym bags as a way to let out his frustrations. He would work out until he feels breathless. On sunny days he'd go out walking, he'd eye the buildings in awe as they were more developed.
Today he sat outside a coffee shop where he only bought a single cup of coffee while he started drawing the building up front.
He would ride his motorcycle and feel the cold air, he'd close his eyes for a few seconds still imagining that he's back in the forties.
Tumblr media
" good coffee? " you asked as you saw the cute guy that ordered a while ago that your co-worker assisted
" yeah, nice coffee " said Steve with a small smile
" good cause I made it " you humored
' seriously Rogers? niCe cOfFeE , he still didn't know how to talk to pretty girls '
If Bucky were here right now, he either would've stolen the girl or nagged him about how he should ask for her number, Steve thought not noticing you placing the cake on his table.
“ i didn't order any sweets, maam “ said Steve eyeing the small cake you gave him
It was a simple oreo cake with white frosting everywhere.
He saw how beautiful you were and is awestruck.
He couldn't help but feel he saw you before, maybe as he passed this very same shop.
“ i know you didnt but you seemed sad, no offense “ you said smiling as the man Infront of you smiled back
“ thanks, I guess i am kinda famished “ Steve said picking up the small fork to take a bite
He wouldn't say no to a cake given by a pretty dame
He wasn't that stupid
“ So waiting on the big guy? “
“ maam? “ he questions
“ iron man, lot of people eat here just to see him fly by “ you said pointing at the building he was drawing before you talked to him
“ maybe another time " said steve as he took the cake quickly in one bite that made you giggle seeing the frosting that was left in his lips
He felt hypnotized by your small laugh and the way you crunched your nose as you laughed.
He turned red thinking he made a fool of himself and quickly wiped of the extra frosting around his mouth.
“ table’s yours as long as you like,nobody’s waiting on it and plus we got free wireless “ you said as you started walking away wiping your hands on your apron
“ radio? “ the cute guy asked that just made you smile more thinking he was joking
“ ask for her number, you moron “ an old guy next to Steve asked as he shook his head
He walked away forgetting the sketchpad he brought, occupied with the thoughts of you and your laugh.
You returned outside to clean some tables and give out other people's orders.
He watched the trains go by, like the way years had gone in the blink of an eye.
Tumblr media
You went to the cute guy's table and saw his forgotten notebook.
You tucked it under your arm as your hands held the tray filled with empty plates and cups with the clattering of some utensils as you moved.
You set down the sketchbook just to peek in case the guy that left wrote his name.
You opened it cautiously to the first page knowing artists like to be careful with their sketchbooks.
You were an art major yourself but in digital arts, you wanted to pursue a career in animation.
You liked drawing a lot too as a teenager, and painting but animation fascinated you.
The moving pictures that could tell any story you want it to, the magic of voice acting and sound effects making a movie without actually showing real people amazed you.
You loved disney films and ghibli animation, you loved the way even drawings can showcase complicated emotions.
S. Rogers
His first initial and surname were written on the small corner of the first page. A thing most people do even if they didn't draw, they'd put their initials or signature.
You did it too,with all your notebooks, your umbrella and even your books.
You couldn't help but flip the next pages getting mesmerized by the drawings the cute guy had.
You giggled seeing the monkey in an army like attire holding a shield, their were drawings of people – most of them looked as if they were from the military. They had helmets on or had the more professional uniforms with buttons and medals.
The more drawings you saw the more it felt wrong peeking at his masterpieces, you'd hate it too but you made the excuse in your head that you were just trying to find more information on the cute guy that left rather quickly that afternoon.
You sensed the sadness, emptiness of the drawings he had, maybe he missed these people, you thought while closing the notebook not wanting to pry into his privacy any longer.
You smiled as you walked home remembering the details of the cute guy's looks. He seemed nice and dorky, not like the guys that would just hit on you and expect you to say yes after some sweet talking.
You kept it safe in one of the drawers under the cashier hoping the cute blonde will show up again.
Tumblr media
His ocean blue eyes made you blush, they felt so intimidating in a way that made you feel like your old 16 year old self.
It was infatuation at first sight, his outfit making him look old fashioned but still dashing.
You wanted to be the one to always put a smile on his face if it looked as pretty as the one he gave you just hours ago.
You wanted to pass your finger through his blonde locks that you'd bet were as soft as clouds.
You couldn't miss his broad shoulders and thick figure.
You found yourself crushing on the mysterious cute guy that left his sketchbook.
You felt giddy as you slept thinking of the same pair of ocean blue eyes.

I just realized I never asked, what type of paper do you use? I've been looking for suggestions since the sketchbooks I usually grab don't hold my markers well
I don't actually use a certain type of paper. I have a bunch of sketchbooks and sketchblocks but they are all different ( like sketchblock I use for all my comics has a little yellow hue). It can also depend on markers you're using, I use vista-artista style alcohol markers ( I don't like when they are new, cuz they bleed a lot, but it gets better with time). Also I do a lot of after work, like with a white gel pen or sometimes I cover some bleedings with gold or silver pen. It does help a lot.
If you mean them going on the other side on the list or the next page, well mine do too. I just use only one side of the sketchbook, the right one, it's also more comfortable to use only the side of my main hand. I usually leave the left pages blank ( or well with whatever colors are showing, all of them) or use them for notes and doodles. If you want some fancy paper recommendations, I suggest watercolor paper, it's thick but got some texture. I use thick paper for my underlayer, so markers don't go on the next page or my table if I'm using a sketchblock

Firstly, ive seen your paper/sketchbook art and it should be a crime that your art looks that great. i envy it.. secondly, who were your inspirations for your artstyle?
First off THANK you???? This is a huge compliment cuz I always feel like my sketchbook art isn’t clean enough for it to be it’s own art post
And secondly, I really had to think tbh???? I have a ton of inspirations
@pastelpaperplanes has really inspired the way I do tfa character designs and sheets cuz she’s got a beautiful way of showing personality and giving her characters a REALLY good silhouette. She’s very recognizable due to that
@watermelonsverything / @watermeloneverything has inspired me in how I do my lineart! She does things so cleanly and smoothly and how it just all intersects together like fine machinery??? Beautiful
@l0ngarm & @jarofloosescrews are HUGE inspo’s in terms of style imitation, they both have the Tfa artstyle down P A T and I LIVE for l0ngarms oc’s designs and stories. And screws use of colors and backgrounds whilst also doing traditional pieces SUPER well. Such beautiful artists
@tarrmack is SO good at pushing expressions and poses and I just love how goofy they draw characters??? It’s so endearing
@frecklydork has absolutely inspired me in how many sparkles and hearts I can put into myart lol I just love how. Tender she can make her art? Like u can FEEL the love in her artwork. Not just in the effort but in the appreciation of who she’s drawing. She puts her feelings into it. And I adore that immensely. She’s inspired me to be as EMOTIONAL as you wanna be with ur art! There’s no limits in how u should express yourself
@cybernetic-oreos has definitely inspired me to be just as indulgent and idea filled as an artist can be, they just come up with the most RANDOMEST shit and they execute it all flawlessly, their colors r eye catching and they don’t care how quote on quote “clean” their art has to look. they just enjoy doing it??
@starcreamed has been the BIGGEST encouragement for the last few months, we’ve only just recently started becoming buds and I’m so happy we r, she’s so comforting and so shameless in what she likes, she could care less bout what people say in how she consumes media. She does great self insert shit and has made me more confidant in my own indulgence
And finally, they’re not an artist, but they’re still one of my favorite creators
@needs-to-stop-looking-at-valves has influenced and encouraged my creativity, constantly gives me new ideas and concepts, she’s a constant inspiration for me. She words things in ways I never can, and she’s made me feel proud in how I execute my work. She keeps me going. So she’s a huge inspiration, and friend. Love u boo :>

omg i was wondering why your artstyle looked SO familiar, but then i realized you're the same artist i followed YEARS AGO when SU and PR were popular
This ask awoke something inside me cuz it made me pull out my old sketchbooks from my early days back when I used to only draw on paper and post cruddy pics on tumblr and just... Look. Gosh, it definitely was YEARS ago huh. I'm kinda touched my style is still recognizable despite the changes I've grown into
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
But yeah, that's probably me! You were probably following my old account, the one that got hacked and deleted roughly two years ago. This is a new one, which is why you wont find the older ones that were drawn on paper. I still do have them all tho, evidently.

6/27/23
My chair should be coming in today, I'm really excited about that. Idk why I don't let myself have nice things more often, especially when it's an actual need. Well I mean I do constantly worry about money. It's nice not to. I'm happy I l waited on the bookcase, the one I almost got from IKEA was $80 but I found pretty much the exact same one at Walmart for $35. A steal and I didn't have to wait for shipping or drive over an hour myself to get it. Shit they need a new alarm on that ambulance, kinda haunting kind of sound. Not a good sign that it's over at the nursing home. Why is everyone sharing so much medical information with me? Why is it always a colonoscopy? I hope the weather holds out but I also don't cuz working in the rain is fun. I haven't been doing good in terms of keeping a sketchbook for thesis. We're two months into the summer and I'm still not exactly sure what I want, what else is new? I think the portrait timeline would still be cool and I had the idea to have it be a digital and traditional combo. Maybe if I had it so the medium I use has to be what I used the first time? So lots of pen and ink on shit paper. What if I find something else I like in the meantime? The world seems so much brighter, so much more saturated, like it was when I was little, it's so lovely. I'm so happy I feel alive again. I don't want the summer to end, if I keep living as I do now, maybe it won't. I'm working my entire vacation and yet it doesn't feel like work. I'm happy I didn't settle for a job that I knew I'd be miserable at. Girl what is this weather hot cold hot cold hot cold, fucking pick one aughh. Me when I say every turn-off to deter men. I'm out here saving bugs and worms from being stepped on. The breeze feels so nice rather than chilling.
Notes:
I WILL NOT BE CAUGHT DEAD WITH A STEERING WHEEL COVER
I didn't love you, you were just the only person I wasn't miserable around.
Popped shirt sleeves
I was right it was my 7th-grade history teacher
YES STORMY SEA AIR
This is why I can't live far away from the coast, I just couldn't possibly do that.

GET CLOVERED MOTHER SHUCKER
Tumblr media
NEHEHEH
Okay, break from the fish talk show. Time to talk about my week! That's a very pretty clover btw.
Okay so first off, I did join the Narrator Swap discord for the month of June and I posted my first art for it two days ago. That has been super fun and I can't wait to get my partner for next week!!!
Now the big thing was yesterday. Because yesterday was my oldest brother's birthday and he wanted to bring us to a convention, so some of us joined him for that, myself included. I don't know if this is surprising or anything, but this was the first big convention I've ever been to and my goodness, it sure was something. I didn't know a whole ton about the convention going in so I didn't go to any of the panels. (Though my sister in law told me they had a Sandman panel, but I lowkey forgot and only remembered 30 minutes after the panel started. Pretty upset about that). Anyways! I did end up getting some cool things, though most of what was being sold seemed to be more anime focused there were some other cool things I found.
I ended up getting two charms, an Ineffable Husbands one for myself and a Dreamling one for my sister. I also go a really cute Blackbonnet print signed by the artist (it's so cute!!), a little sewn keychain of my favorite little dragon Figment, a really cute Ponyo sweater, and an adorable strawberry frog keyboard for my computer (cuz I really needed a new one).
So overall, a super fun experience!! I definitely have determined that next time I go to a big con I definitely need to look into everything happening the day I'm going and figure out what events I want to participate in. Also, I should probably try to finish up some of my more casual cosplays, such as the Narrator or the RK900 hoodie I've been very slowly working on. This is because I went to this con in my Ghostbusters cosplay. Since I had a proton pack I couldn't have my backpack with me, which got kinda annoying when I had some downtime and didn't have my sketchbook to draw in. So more casual cosplays would work best for me.
Another thing I've discovered. I walk really poorly. My legs and ankles are so sore right now because of how I walk and how much I was walking yesterday. I realized a few hours in as my feet were starting to hurt, that I walk in such a way that I have a little bit of a limp and it puts a lot of strain on my left leg. Along with that, when walking my ankles are very fluid in their movements in such a way that I tend to put more pressure on the outer edge of my feet. In short. I'm super unbalanced and it wrecks my ankles when I walk like this for a while. So. Oof. This explains why every once in a while one of my ankles kind gives out and I either fall or almost fall. It's very rare, but it happens sometimes. Don't really know what to do about that other than trying to be more conscious of how I'm walking.
So that's about if for con related stuff I guess, though this next thing is a tiny bit related I guess. I have noticed recently, both on Tumblr and at the con, that Trigun Stampede is really popular right now. I don't know much about the anime though my sister did show me an episode or two of the original Trugun series. I did notice a lot of really cool art of Vash while at the con, along with some amazing cosplaysm there was this one person selling the cutest little tiny acrylic standees of him and I kinda wanted one, but I felt like it would be kinda weird to get art of a character from a fandom I'm not in. Anyways, this whole thing has a point. That being, I talked to my sister about it and she said I definitely should watch both Trigun series, sooo.... might end up doing that in my free time. I will probably start with the original Trigun then watch Stampede, cuz that just makes sense to me. I don't know how into it I will get, but I guess we will have to see.
I will have you know you most likely won't have to worry about me dropping TSP since I have a lot of people, both friends and you guys, keeping me into it. So don't worry!! I will not stop drawing TSP art for a long while!!! I just thought that would be important to say.
But yeah, that's kinda been the hughlights of my week. Fun things :)

"I don't care" pt.1 (Kaeya and Zhongli)
The Genshin bois saying they're not interesed in what you're saying
Warnings: Angst; Modern AU; not proof-read; Also my first time writting fanfics in forever so it might be bad lol
A/N: So it's actually my first time writing in English, so let me know if I made any big mistakes. I tried to make this G/N so i hope i did it ok ;w;
Part 2 here (Thoma & Diluc)
Part three here (Childe and Xiao)
Basically got this idea cuz my friend said "i don't care" when i was talking about something __φ(。。)
Kaeya
You entered your small appartement rapidly, excited to show your boyfriend the new sketchbook you got. You’ve had your eyes on this sketchbook for quite a well now, so you were happy to finally buy it. Between paying rents, food and college, it took a while… But it was finally yours!
“Kaeya!”, you said happily, walking into his small office.
His computer was on, and you could see he was working on an essay. Not wanting to disturb him, you simply waited for your boyfriend to look at you. He finally did, giving you one of his signature smiles.
“Hey there sweetheart… You’re back already?”
You nodded vigorously, a big smile on your lips.
“Look what I got!”, you exclaimed, before showing him your new sketchbook.
Kaeya then frowned and took the book in his hands. He opened it, closed it, turned it over in his hands. This was odd… What was he looking for? Then, he simply said:
“Another sketchbook? Really?” “Well… I… I’ve been wanting this one for a few months, you know…?”, you simply answered.
You didn’t understand why he was reacting this way. What was wrong with you buying yourself a sketchbook? With money that you’ve earned! Kaeya then sighed and just fell back in his chair. There was an uncomfortable silence between the two of you, and you didn’t know what to say. Finally, he was the one the break the silence.
“Why would you buy this? You’ve bought one two weeks ago…”
“It was a sketchbook from the dollar store!”, you answered quickly.
“What about rents (Y/N)?”
“I’ve been saving for a while now! I still have money for rents and groceries! I’ve literally been saving for weeks for this sketchbook Kaeya…”
“It’s only a sketchbook (Y/N)! Why would you even put so much money on a stupid book??”
You were rather surprised by his harsh words. You took a step back, not knowing how to react. Looking at your feet, you muttered a quiet “Sorry” before taking the book from his hands.
“I still have the receipt… I’ll bring it back to the art store.”
With that, you left the room. Closing the door of his office behind you with a soft thud. Kaeya was looking at this exact same door, not knowing how to react. What did he say? Why did he say that? What just happened?? He didn’t know what went through his mind and why he snapped like that. Heck, he even knew how hard you’ve worked to get that sketchbook. He knew for how long you’ve been wanting this sketchbook. To you, it was an achievement. He had seen you drawing in those cheap dollar store sketchbooks, and he knew how you hated it. But you were doing this for your common life, so you could still help him pay groceries and rents. You literally put your passion aside to help him. And now, because of him, you were giving up. Because of him, you would be drawing again in those horrible sketchbooks. He buried his face in his hands, feeling ashamed, oh, so ashamed of himself.
“(Y/N)… What have I done…”
Finally, he took a deep breathe in before getting up. He was going to make it up to you.
The cashier at the art store was surprised to see you back so quickly. And was worried because of the sad expression on your face. When he asked you what was wrong, you made up some excuses… Telling him you’ve had miscalculated your budget and couldn’t afford the sketchbook right now. The cashier simply nodded, understanding your situation and processed your refund without any other questions. After getting your money back, you walked out, looking at your feet.
And, of course, that’s when you bumped into him.
You were now looking at your boyfriend with wide eyes. You were completely frozen and didn’t know what to do. Kaeya, however, was panting. He had run all the way from your appartement to the art store. When he finally managed to catch his breathe, he simply said “I’m sorry”. Then he said it again. And again. And again. And again. Those were the only words he was saying now. Quickly, you were wrapped in his arms. Your head against his chest, you could hear his heart beating like crazy. You could also hear his voice, telling you how sorry he was.
“(Y/N)… I’m sorry… I didn’t mean it… I really didn’t! I know how hard you’ve been working to buy this sketchbook for yourself! I don’t know why I snapped like that… I’m so sorry angel…”
You finally decided to look at him. In his eye, you could see how truly sorry he was. How hurt he felt. Before you could say anything, Kaeya said with a soft smile:
“Let’s go get this sketchbook, shall we? I’ll be buying it for you, don’t worry about it my love…”
“Fine, but I’ll only forgive you if we can get the markers as well…!”
Zhongli
As soon as Zhongli walked in your house, he could smell the distinguished smell of pastries baking. He knew that you were fond of baking and were always eager to try baking some new sweets. So to him, it was no surprise to walk in your house smelling like sugar. Suddenly, your head appeared in the kitchen door frame.
“Ah, Zhongli! You’re back already!”
You were smiling at him, some flour on your cheeks. His heart melted at how cute you were. He then hummed softly, hanged his coat and walked up to you.
“What are you baking this time dear?”, he asked, hugging you from behind.
“Sweet flower cupcakes! Madame Ping gave me the recipe a few days ago, and I was really excited to try it out!”
Your lover then turned his head to the oven, where the cupcakes were cooking. He looked at them for a second before returning his attention to you. You were cleaning your dishes and the kitchen while the sweets were cooking, a soft smile on your lips.
“(Y/N)?”, he asked?
“Yes, Zhongli?”, you left your dishes and looked at him.
“You know you don’t have to bake every week, right?”
At those words, you didn’t really know what to answer. You simply asked him, with a weak voice, “why?”
“Well… You bake a lot… And it’s quite a lot, I don’t know if I can keep eating that much sweets.”
You looked at him for a moment, not knowing how to answer. Did Zhongli just say that he didn’t like your cooking? Was your cooking really that horrible? You were still unsure of what you should answer, but you finally managed to say a faint: “Oh… I see… I’m sorry then, I’ll stop baking…”
Before he could answer anything, you put the last glass away and the oven rang. You walked up to it, took the cupcakes out and simply left them to cool down on the stove top. Then you slowly walked to your room, your eyes fixated on the ground. Zhongli then understood that he made a mistake.
His eyes watched your form enter the shared bedroom and closing the door behind you. Then, he looked at the sweet that were just sitting there. The man finally let out a huge sigh, pulled himself a chair and sat down.
“What have I done?”
He put his head in his heads, upset. He knew that you loved baking more than everything (maybe not him tho. You absolutely adore Zhongli) and now… And… Did he ruin it? Your sad expression was still fresh in his memory. He could still see the light in your eyes fade as he spoke. As the moment replayed in his mind, his heart was aching. And it was aching badly. He didn’t want to be the reason why you stopped your passion.
Meanwhile, you were laying in your bed, hiding under the blankets. You were truly upset at the words Zhongli said. Did he hate your cooking? You’ve been baking sweets weekly for almost a year now, selling some of it to Hu Tao, Xianling, and some other townsfolks. But in the end, maybe that they simply hated your sweets too? This was upsetting you. You were upset that the support you got was fake. A simple big play. But you were also upset at yourself for feeling upset. After all, Zhongli only tried to help, didn’t he? He only wanted to tell you that you didn’t have to spend so much time making things that people didn’t really like. So you could find yourself a new passion, one that you were actually good at. One where-
You heard the door open slowly. Then, it closed, slowly again.
“(Y/N)?”
You slowly got out of the blankets. Soon enough, your head was out, and Zhongli clearly saw that you cried. He chewed on his lip, feeling even more horrible.
You looked at him for a moment, not knowing what to say. Then your eyes stopped on something he was holding. He was holding a tray. In the tray were your muffins. Muffins that he had decorated. Now curious, you sat up on the bed, giving him a questioning look. Your lover then cleared his throat and said:
“I decided to decorate them… I… I hope you don’t mind…”
“But why? I thought you hated my cooking… That it is horrible.”
“Ah… I… I didn’t pick the right words, hm?”, Zhongli said, as he sat on the bed. “I absolutely love your cooking dear. So does Hu Tao. She always asks me what you are planning to make this week.”
He was now looking at you. He cleared his throat and then continued:
“I meant to say, if you’re tired, if you feel you need a break, you don’t have to bake. Your health matters too, and no one will be angry at you if you skip a week. We’ll only look forwards to your next pastries, my dear.”
A small smile played on your lips. Zhongli always found the right words, he always knew how to make you happy.
As he saw your smile, he allowed himself to relax. Then, he handed you one of the cupcakes:
“They’re still hot, we should eat them.”
