#gotta keep this a safe space for the homies u feel

[judewithcigarette]

4, 5, 6, 11, 14, and 30 😌💕

Okay I promise I didn’t forget I just planned on typing this out on my computer which decides to work only on occasion so here was are 💓

4. what flower would you like to be given?

Oh I love any and all flowers but I think some specific ones would be carnations, daisies and dahlias 🌸 if one could gift cherry blossoms that would be ideal

5. who do you feel the most you around?

ah that’s easy: you, cas, my friend from work, and a friend from high school! I feel at home with a lot of friends but the ones I know can keep my heart safe (and I know whose hearts I will also keep safe) are you guys so shout out to the homies 💓

6. say three nice things about yourself (three physical and three non-physical)

Ah this is hard, let’s see… three physical is that I love my eye color (hazel and yes I do make it my entire personality), my hands are good bc I can hold my loved ones, aaaanndddd my hair color I really really love my natural hair color

As for non-physical I love that I take care of loved ones, which is a bit of a double edged sword bc I know I have the tendency to care for others more than myself but I just like making sure everyone is okay and happy! I also think I can be a pretty good writer if I give myself space to do so, and third one is that I make some mean tantanmen my family loves when I cook that

11. what’s something you’re excited for?

I’m excited for the artisan show I’m going to next weekend with you and madi! I can’t wait to drop a hot dime there hehe

14. favorite feel-good show?

Hmmm I gotta think hard about this one bc I DO have comfort movies on hand but shows… okay this is gonna be corny but attack on titan is one of my comfort shows okaayyyyy and the untamed ofc ofc my favorite gays

30. what reminds you of home (doesn't have to mean house... just things that remind you of the feeling of home)?

To me home is the smell of freshly made sopapillas y tamales, feeling my dogs lean against me as they’re falling asleep, the garbled sound of voices talking on mi abuelo’s paramedic walkie, laughing with friends as we play mariokart, listening to tupac with my mom and sister, the feel of a heavy cobija de tigre on winter nights, falling asleep to the sound of the George Lopez show (or everyone loves raymond), rainy cloudy days, the smell of dirt after rain, laughing in the car with the thots until my ribs hurt, the late night family dinners i had with cas and our other friend, sitting with my friends from work in one of their apartments and watching music videos or just smoking herbals and talking about deep shit, leaning my head on someone’s shoulder and them putting their head on top of mine, locking eyes with a loved one and having the moment of unspoken understanding, the way my mom smells like baby powder and vanilla and spices, someone running their fingers thru my hair, running my fingers thru someone else’s hair, all the old Charlie Brown movies, the way all my loved ones smell if that makes sense? Everyone has a distinct smell that’s a mix of their own smell plus their fragrances and it’s so comforting. and so much more

Thank u thank u thank u my love 💓💓 I especially loved that last question it made my heart so full to type it all out

[larrivex]

Homie u KNO I gotta ask u for the larrivex for those hcs

where they first met and how

i have no reasoning for this but i feel ghastly (with help from hopeless) first recruited larrikin who was STARSTRUCK but very good at hiding it. probably just in some random tent in the middle of ireland a few weeks after ravel was captured

how long their ‘flirting’ phase was before feelings got involved

OH MY GOD SOOOO LONG....... ok they met in 1850 they got together 40 YEARS LATER THEYRE IDIOTS. they both caught feelins pretty quick but larrikin dismissed his (he gets fleeting crushes often) and dexter did a terrible job of hiding his

who fell for who first ( if applicable )

hm.... i mean lbr larrikin saw him shirtless the first time and that cemented it in his mind they had to at least sleep together. then they had their longass song and dance through the centuries. i think larrikin fell for dex furst but def denied it for longer

where their first date was and what it was like

uh canon they. well they were a bit busy i dont think theyd have one? though tanith and saracen seem to count "lying amongst the carnage of battle" a date so i guess they did that a lot. larrikin lives au though it was probably some small beach along the countryside. they had a fun mountainclimb too! :D

who asks who out and how ( with a sign? spelled out on a cake? just a simple ‘will you go out with me’? )

I HAVE A FIC FOR THIS. NO SPOILERS (ok small spoiler: 1890s ball)

who proposes first

they dont, really? they dont need it. i like the idea of them having matching tattoos tho (not just bc i want dex to have tattoo. ok mostly bc of that)

if they keep / kept their relationship secret or let everyone know right away

they TRIED. but theyre too fucking giddy and more than a bit handsy and literally everyone knew as soon as they got back

if they adopt any pets together

i think if they ever settled down (unlikely, neither are homebirds) they may get a cat. or multiple cats. and some dogs. they both like animals :D

who’s more dominant

they switch :)

where their first kiss was and what it was like

THIS ONE IS IN THE FIC NO SPOILERS (BALLROOM DANCING)

if they have any matching couples stuff ( mugs? sweaters? pillowcases? )

OH MY GOD DO THEY...... they have sooooo fucking many. gag gifts from the dead men,actual sentimental things, little trinkets from souvenir shops

how into pda they are

oooh, depends. theyre not the handholdy sort but theyll sit closer together when theyre in a group, dance every opportunity, and random kisses when they feel safe

who holds the umbrella when it rains

thats assuming they even own an umbrella?? poor adepts are too used to having elemental friends

where their usual ‘date spot’ is ( if applicable )

anywhere and everywhere outside. beaches, mountains, forests... long walks in the middle of nowhere without stressing over being attacked at any moment are their favourite

who’s more protective

dexter. he watched larrikin almost die once, and its NOT happening again

how long it is before they sleep together ( can be as in ‘had sex’ or as in ‘shared a bed’ )

sharing a bed? pretty soon after they met (it gets cold in ireland at night!!! it was DEFINITELY just for warmth). tbh itd be pretty bad form to fuck when ur friends are light sleepers in the tent next to you idk maybe they got creative

if they argue about anything

after a few centuries you get most of the real arguments out of the way,but they probably have random spats about trivial shit randomly

who leaves more marks ( lipstick, hickeys, scratchmarks etc. )

anywhere people wouldnt normally see is free game. dex is probably more into it though

who steals whose clothes and how often

dexter would rip larrikins clothes idc how built lar is dexter is 6'2 and larrikin is 5'9 MAX. larrikin will appropriate dexters old tshirts into sleepwear most of the time

how they cuddle ( spooning? facing each other? )

both of them in the weirdest position possible and taking up the most space, yet somehow still holding on go each other :3

what their favourite nonsexual activity is

physical? just lying in bed together. just in general? again, adventuring or going on some hike, or just hanging out with friends

how long they stay mad at each other

the longest was almost a decade (they can both be stubborn) but usually no longer than a week

what their usual coffee / tea orders are

black, but they both like to add sugar. theyre just used to going without

if they ever have any children together

definitely not

if they have any special pet names for each other

their favourite game is coming up with the dumbest terms of endearment. i think they would be overjoyed at "my beloved" becoming a popular phrase

if they ever split up and / or get back together

never officially, but theyve definitely had time apart

what their shared living space is like ( messy? clean? what kind of decor? )

somehow a mix of military neatness and frat house

what their first christmas / hanukkah / etc as a couple was like

considering it was the middle of a war, just chilling around a campfire with the rest of the dead men. they took care to place their tent much further away than usual ;)

what their names are in each other’s phones

in line with their petname game, they change pretty often. sonetimes the others will steal their phones to make them normal, after some badguy or another saw dexter hang up a call from "beloved wife" (changed by saracen actually, from something a LOT dirtier) and suddenly rumours were spreading of dexter vex having a secret mortal wife

if they have any ‘couple traditions’ ( buying a new mug for their collection every year? baking every friday evening? )

adventuring!! all the time. but they have special places to go on their "birthdays"

who falls asleep first and who wakes up first

larrikin for both. hes a light sleeper but god can he just drop on the spot

who’s the big spoon / little spoon

they swap!!!!

who hogs the bathroom

...am i allowed to say they uh. both do ;)

who kills the spiders / takes them outside

either. but dexter prefers to put them outside and larrikibs is taking after him

#ur insane for thisssss IT TAKES ME SO LONG TO WRITE THESE. ily though it firces me to think abt them indepth more #vexasks #train whistles at night #skulduggery pleasant #dexter vex #larrikin #larrivex #laxter #long post #scheduling this for. Not 4am

Second Topic: What would you tell your past self?

D. M. Production’s Social Initiative is a movement that makes up the base of DMP. We trade tips, advice, and share information that could help one another. A very introspective topic that pulled a ton of responses was "What would you tell your past self?"

Many of our members had a lot to say. Varying from "Don't do this" to advice about the lifestyles they once led and are currently leading. Some of the things we wanted to tell our past selves included: (All quoted. Please excuse any language, we are all grown here. Also this was all gathered in a safe social space, grammar is not our concern.)

○ Get your license before grad school. Don't take caffeine pills to pull all righters. Don't skip prom for the avengers premiere

○ Don't be afraid to speak. Don't flirt with everyone. Don't take things so seriously

○ DON'T LET THEM CUT YOUR HAIR

○ Don't be afraid to do what makes you happy.

○ Don't let pride take over

○ Stretch always!

○ Start a saving fund asap

○ Don't be afraid or ashamed to feel. You aren't in love and you won't be for years and years. You are gonna have bad days, and everyone will tell you that you're just lazy. But your feelings are valid and it's okay. You aren't crazy. You'll learn soon that you're just mentally ill, and that doesn't make you any less or more important than everyone else. Learn from your mistakes, because you will make them. Insist on being taught how to drive, and don't let anyone tell you no because you don't pay attention. Be annoying until you learn, cuz it's important. Don't be afraid to ask for help.

○ It's okay to walk away from toxic people.

○ Fuck them. If it makes YOU happy do it.

○ Real talk.. its ok to try and let ppl in. Your "spartan pride " is goin to drive ppl away. Paranoia will smack u in the mouth and u will feel like everyone is out for you. Some are some aren't females will come and go. Even tho they hurt you ot doesnt mean everyone else (regardless of gender) will. Most problems can be solved without use of fists knees elbows etc. Try to talk it out first. Some ppl soon will try to get you to open up. Let them. Take one day as it comes. You put more pressure on yourself than anyone else

○ Patience is a virtue but don't let people abuse it.

It being yours

○ You need to speak up. Or you finna get cursed and fussed while still being the bad guy. It's okay to say something it doesn't make YOU the bad guy it's makes your feeling valid.

○ Don't get so attached to your friends that you can't make new ones

○ You like girls baby it's okay your friends and family will still love you and accept you

○ Step out of your comfort zone, it's how you grow as a person.

○ You don't have to have black friends to be black. Your punker friends are genuine and will stick around much longer then everyone else

○ Stop trying play on that knee, rehab and get it looked at

○ The world will only see you as black first so it's ok to listen to trap music in white neighborhoods on full blast. Their gonna call cops even if your not

○ YOU GO THROUGH ANOTHER PUBERTY AFTER 21 YOUR NOT DYING AND STOP LOOKING SHIT UP ON GOOGLE AND GO TO THE DOCTOR

○ Just because they are giving you "attention" doesn't mean their intentions are right.

○ If you don't want to be what others want you to be. Don't. 

They aren't living your life, you are. At the end of the day, you gotta live with the person you become. 

So aim to be the best version of yourself.

○ Don't try and make a situation work if you know it ain't going anywhere. It is okay to walk away, even if you put so much emotional effort into it.

○ Don't fuck her

○ Fuck Him

○ Don't get caught up in the positive reinforcement of social media. Don't look for likes and comments. Look for things that'll help you grow.

○ Don't let others judgement/criticism of you being a virgin beat you up mentally. There is nothing wrong with waiting to have sex. If people keep putting you down because you're waiting, they aren't your friends.

○ No homie tats or piercings

○ Don't be so insecure about your body. It's going to change, you're gonna have fluff and rolls and marks. You're still beautiful, you'll still be riding faces.

○ Mind ya business. You can't save everybody. Focus on yourself.

○ *tells self the lottery numbers*

○ Your lazy af stop making promises that you'll help people when you know you won't

○ SAVE SOME FUCKING MONEY

○ Be more open minded.

○ Don't fuck with close minded people you will never be understood and you will have a constant headache

○ Get out of your room and make friends your freshmen year of college

○ Adult DO NOT know everything

○ Change your major

○ Your are not to short to model babe do commercial or print and show tf off

○ Your imagination is the right direction to shoot for

○ Make peace with your Dad's side of the family.

○ You have a natural talent for literally anything you wanna do.

○ You don't have to respect your parent or parents if they didn't do anything to deserve it.

○ Do NOT be friends wit a coke dealer

○ Don't stop playing that instrument. You'll regret it tremendously.

○ You gone be one of the weird kids in school but it's okay you finna be popping later

○ Niggas well say anything if it keeps them from being the bad guy

○ Get your hoodies back

Party foul! Why you snatching back hoodies?!

You ain't getting hoodies back. Should have bought two of the same.

DEF GET UR HOODIES BACK

NO HOODIES BACK

You forfeited those hoodies my guy

You aint gon get em back. Somewhere in you, you knew they was gone

But take their rompers!!!! REVOLUTION

let me see u try

#RunThemRompersRevolution

Viva la romper revolution!!!

Clearly we went off on a tangent, but we got back on it. But as you can see there was tons of advice people had for their younger selves. And this is not even half of the things people had to say. People clearly led lives they learned from and we hope that others can learn from their experiences as well, especially if you happen to be going through anything at the moment.

We leave you with this:

Be confident and be open. Not everyone will do what's best for you, but you can so be smart and make decisions you can be happy with. But don't forget to live your life! We only got one, enjoy it!
