#hope my homeboys doing alright

[moralesmilesanhour]

Hello!!! How are you? I’ve been a follower for the past few days and was wondering if I could request something.

I was hoping to request a fic or like give you a prompt for something for miles42 × femreader

So it goes like this- yk those super corny reads that are like the reader's pinning for miles and like sometimes miles finds them annoying but in a cute way but he don't know that her yk? So he's talking to his homeboys about her, talm about some how she's so "annoying, a nuisance" and guess who's behind the wall listening? The reader herself.

So this goes one of two ways- she either matches up there, confronts him. And she's like "flipping fine, if that's how you feel then lemme get out of ur way- you won't hear a peep from me" and she like just ignores him and he learns how he feels about her, sees how his life is so boring without her and all that- goes to apologize happy ending..

Option number 2: silent treatment. Like just slowly drifting away until he once again comes to the realization that he needs her and all that happy ending yay!

Feel free to do whatever you want with this but I'm thinking of sending the same request to other authors to see what they come up with cause everyone has a style k? And i just love studying them and reading them cause evervtime- no matter how similar the prompt is- they always manage to invoke different feelings with in me.

Anyway- have fun doing this- but remember you don't have to cause this is kinda too much and I'm sorry😓

"I want my pen back."

wc: >1,200 A/N: okay so i got a bit carried away...this is a long one. (yes I am using this as an excuse to try out the gradient thing) thank you anon for this fun request! i also rlly like ur reasoning behind it and i hope i was able to do this prompt some type of justice lol

The gel pen clattered to the ground.

“I got it,” you said, grinning at Miles. You squat to grab it before the boy can act to get it himself, and he sighs as you hand it to him.

“Thanks.”

Miles turned the pen every which way between his fingers.

You had gifted it to him on the first day of school, with that same expectant grin. The little cartoon dogs that surrounded the perimeter had begun to fade with use because – admittedly – it had actually turned out to be a good ass pen.

He’d thought initially that you were just being nice; maybe you were handing shit out to everyone because it was the first day, understandable. 

But then, it was highlighters (the erasable ones).

Pink sticky-notes on his locker, telling him to have a nice day with the ‘i’s dotted with hearts.

A new sketchbook for Secret Santa.

Miles’ pencil case had rapidly gotten bulkier, and when you rushed to grab a seat next to him during the one class without assigned seats, it finally clicked.

You were trying to get his attention. And he wasn’t sure what would happen if you got it.

“I like the new braids.”

He was snapped out of his thoughts, and turned to you.

“Huh?”

“The braids,” you laughed. “I like the pattern. Who did ‘em for you?”

A tiny smirk ghosted the boy’s lips.

“My mom. Just like the last time you asked me.”

He ran a hand instinctively over the meandering zig-zag pattern that his cornrows had been sectioned into. Miles looked at you from his periphery; you were still staring. 

“Bitch, just ask him out already!”

Your friend smacked the back of your shoulder as the two of you took your sweet time getting back to your lockers.

“Alright, today, I swear,” you said, hand over your heart for emphasis.

A beat of silence passes. “But what if he says no?” 

She groaned.

“Then he says no, and you can save your money. But say something, it’s getting embarrassing.”

Your friends’ encouragement landed you here, around the corner of a building where Miles and a gaggle of other boys from your homeroom were bursting into raucous laughter.

“Yo, why you ain’t bag her yet? She wants you bad,” one boy said.

Unsure if the ‘she’ in question was you, you stay where you are and keep listening.

“I dunno, she kinda annoying,”

Miles’ low voice makes your ears perk up.

“One day she gon’ run outta things to say about my hair, she has to!”

…Oh.

The buoyant feeling in your chest sinks as the group erupts into another laughing fit. If you asked him out now, you’d hear about it for the rest of the year.

Shoving your phone into your pocket, you turn back the way you came. 

Miles knew something was off when you sat down the next morning without a word. 

“You good?” he asked.

You glanced at him, then nodded before going back to playing with the beads in your hair. The excruciating silence stretched on for almost the entirety of class before it was broken again.

“Do you…wanna help me with my homework? I’ll really let you, this time.”

You raised an eyebrow.

“Morales, you got an ‘A’ in every class.”

“You don’t know that.”

“Your name’s on every bulletin board.”

“Damn,” the boy muttered to himself as his leg bounced under the desk.

Your beads clattered against your back as you rose from your seat. The bell had rung, finally. You didn’t even say ‘bye’.

Miles cracked open his locker. One of your sticky notes from last week had begun to un-stick and fluttered to the ground. There were no new ones. He bent to pick it up, noticing how neat and round your handwriting was on these compared to the way you wrote in class. The letters didn’t run together, like you were in a rush.

Neatly folding the note and sticking it in his pocket, Miles shut his locker to reveal your face. The boy nearly yelped in surprise.

“Where the hell did you come from? Scared the shit outta me,” he said with a grin.

“I want my pen back.”

Miles froze. 

“Which pen?”

You tilted your chin up towards the one he was currently gripping in his left hand. He looked down at it like a wad of cash.

“Oh.”

He couldn’t just not give the pen back to you…

…but he didn’t want to give it to you, either.

“What you need it for? Don’t you have, like, a whole store full of these?”

“Miles, I gotta get to class. I’m not playing,” you reached for Miles’ hand, but he raised it high above his head.

Instead of a smirk or mocking sneer, something like worry was etched onto the boy’s features. 

“Tell me what’s up witchu first.”

“What are you talking about? I’m about to be late, c’mon.”

“You ain’t said a word to me all day,” he dropped his hand momentarily. “Are you sick? Did I do something? What–hey!”

You had snatched the pen out of the boy’s hand when he wasn’t looking, throwing it into your bag.

“I thought that’s what you wanted.”

You turn to retreat down the hallway, but stop with a huff when Miles calls after you.

“Wait!”

“I’m waiting.”

“Come see me after school?”

You kicked an empty can down the sidewalk in front of Miles’ apartment.

“Make this quick, I gotta go study.”

He looks everywhere else to avoid meeting your eyes, looking for the right words.

“You didn’t answer me earlier,” Miles awkwardly shuffled his feet. “Are you mad at me?”

“...Yeah, kinda.”

“For what?”

You stop to think for a moment, crossing your arms. 

“For…for letting me hand you that pen, knowing you weren’t gonna give it back,” you began.

Miles’ brows furrowed in confusion. “That’s it?”

You shook your head profusely, “N-no, I’m not done. You let me buy you all that stuff, put all that dumb shit in your locker, whole time you don’t even like me–”

“You don’t know that,” Miles interrupted. Your head snapped up to look at him, and you paused.

“I don’t?”

Neither of you say anything for a moment, then Miles remembers the note in his pocket. He takes it out and shows it to you.

“These? Are cute as fuck,”

He searches for more words, ten continues, "A-and I use that sketchbook every day. That pen? It’s like, my favorite,” he laughs. “I got half a mind to steal it back from you.”

Miles watches you expectantly. Your arms are still crossed, but the corners of your lips quirk up in amusement.

“So you like getting free stuff.”

“No-! I…”

The boy’s arms had begun to flail around in frustration. You hold back a giggle, never having seen him squirm like this before. It’s a nice change of pace.

“Alright, listen. I like hearing you talk to me every morning, and…”

He trailed off. He had begun slightly bouncing on his toes.

“...I like you.”

At some point while watching Miles struggle to explain himself, the float-y feeling in your chest had come back. You tilted your head to the side, and smiled.

“Okay. What are you gonna do about it?”

The boy’s eyes lit up.

“Where do you wanna go?”

⤷username WOAH calm your horses, it's all joke when Luka, Jude and other madrid guys don't mind it, why is it bothering you sm, a lot of players kid support their dad's/mom's rivals, it's common in football world chill.

⤷username "ungreatful bastard" bro she is literally the most grateful person ever.

Obey me: An MC who pretends they hurt their back but then suddenly twerks. (Brothers + Side Characters please)

A/N: I can't believe that this is the first request I've ever received 💀

I'll be dividing this into two parts: demon brothers (here) and side characters

Summary: Read the request

Characters: Lucifer, Mammon, Leviathan, Satan, Asmodeus, Beelzebub, Belphegor and gn! MC

Warnings: None

Tagging @http-rae, @hornyf0ckers and @lololagni <3

╭── ⋅ ⋅ ── ✩ ── ⋅ ⋅ ──╮

Lucifer

❀ Worried at first

❀ What happened to you?

❀ But then you start twerking

❀ He goes from concerned to annoyed

❀ "MC, stop doing that"

❀ Give him a break unless you want to clean the entire house as punishment

Mammon

❀ Homeboy doesn't know what to do

❀ "O-Oi! Ya alright? ... Oh"

❀ You scared the crap out of him

❀ The more you do it, the more he'll get used to it

❀ Maybe he'll even start twerking back

❀ Still, that doesn't stop him from worrying about you but he would never show it

Leviathan

❀ Is this a normie thing? Or a human thing? Or both?

❀ Too perplexed to react at first

❀ But then is amused

❀ He doesn't know where you got that from, but he likes it. It's actually a bit fun

❀ Depending on his mood, he might even start doing it as well

Satan

❀ He was probably reading before you did that

❀ Looks up in confusion. Are humans that fragile?

❀ But then you start twerking

❀ He just goes back to reading

❀ He might end up pretty pissed off at you if you disturb him too often

❀ "MC... stop it, seriously."

Asmodeus

❀ "Oh no! MC! Did you hurt-"

❀ He's speechless at first

❀ You really caught him off guard this time

❀ But then he twerks back

❀ He enjoys the time where you two twerk together

Beelzebub

❀ He starts choking

❀ He worries a lot about you and doesn't want you to get hurt

❀ He's about to cry but then you start twerking

❀ "MC...?"

❀ He's simply confused now. Is this one of your human antics?

❀ Please don't do this to him, he'll just worry about you too much

Belphegor

❀ He won't notice when you do it most of the time because he's asleep

❀ But once he's awake and you do it, he worries a bit at first

❀ Surely humans can't be that fragile... can they?

❀ Once you start twerking, he'll roll his eyes in annoyance and amusement

❀ Maybe he might do this to Lucifer sometime... who knows?

That bondage(?) Deep Night scene was something 👀

Urh, um. I have a lot to say about... whatever this was, lol.

This probably does not deserve a whole essay-long post, but here it is anyway.

I can't be the only one that thought this was laughably ridiculous. I don't know what it was trying to be... sexy? Mysterious? Risqué? The different girl? But it failed.

There was just too much and too little at the same time if that even makes sense. These actors are all amazing, for sure, so I don't fault them at all. Truly, the entire time I was just hoping they were paid enough for this, lol.

I mean, okay, alright, I'm not particularly versed in the sexy things of the night, lmao (what is censored on Tumblr these days?), but this scene was just plain comedy to me. I literally choked.

It just felt odd and forced. And it was weird because their other ~sexy~ scenes are, to me, really well done -- intense, chemistry-filled, angst, etc., etc. -- but this just felt like a random insert that added no value to anything, lol. With BLs, maybe especially Thai ones I feel, you go in mostly not knowing how far they will go with their couples, and you usually don't know until it--whatever it is--happens. And this, let me tell you, I was not ready for, lol.

Despite being apprehensive that the host club meets acrobatics storyline would be another too out-of-pocket Thai BL concept for me, I actually started to really enjoy it, until this scene made me fear the future of this series.

The chemistry between Wela and Khem is just so, so good. I love it. And circa episode 2, their steamy shower scene really had the angst, yearning, and build-up to make it the level of sexy that the random bondage bed scene failed to have.

Wela was fine in the bondage scene, but Khem was giving too much for what was actually going on, which to me looked like hot yoga and a tooth exam. 😂

Seriously, it was like he had a piece of spinach stuck in his mouth and was just constantly trying to get it out. And meanwhile my homeboy Wela, bless his heart, was trying to do some sort of oral exam on Khem. Khem's good to go until his next cleaning in 6 months, LMAO.

And the issue for me, too, is that there was no build-up or hints or whatever that these two would be into bondage, BDSM, or however you'd/they'd label it. BDSM is all good and well, but here it felt so random. It'd made more sense and probably have had more impact if they put in little hints here and there that one or both of them were into some sort of bondage situation.

It'd have been even better if it were Wela, because of his dynamic with Khem. Khem comes off as this confident, carefree rich kid, while Wela has a softer, sweeter personality. He's a good student who just wants to do well for his family. If he were the one to suddenly spring on or suggest BDSM to Khem, now that would have been interesting.

I mean, all and all, props to the actors for taking this sort of scene seriously and trying their best.

I'ma keeps watching anyways, because there are a lot of fun and interesting things to like about this show. I also definitely want to see what happens to Seiji, aka sheer-shirt-boy, and Khem's innocent uni friend.

Alright. SPOILERS. It might take me a couple posts over today and tomorrow to process EAW ep. 14. I’ll try to keep things organized. My Big Thoughts on Young-woo are at the bottom. Long post warning.

1) I’m going to sound a far different bell than the reviews I’m seeing on the tag. I think the writing of ep. 14 was absolutely FANTASTIC. I am giddy over how good this writing was and I can’t wait to re-watch this episode. 

I think ep. 13 needed to set up a lot of conflict very quickly to get to the important penultimate episode next week, which we know can be huge. Today’s (Thursday’s) episode, for me, ironed out a lot of the sudden conflict we saw, including contextualizing Attorney Jung’s illness. When he says that South Korea has the best treatment for stomach cancer (a relatively common ailment in those parts of Asia that we don’t see as much in the US), I believe it, and I think the writers intentionally put those lines in there to give viewers who know that background a touch of relief (but we’re still worried about him). 

2) Content-wise, obviously, things are not going as linearly as us viewers would have liked or expected. But y’all -- I believe the writers know this and are doing this to us. Look at what Su-yeon said to Min-woo: “I almost reported you to the police for the crime of not staying in character.” The writers know what they’re doing! 

Another way I think the writers are injecting lightness here -- when Jun-ho said he wouldn’t drink, and then he got plastered. I think it was set up to be cute. I’m not reading a forever devastation and finality to the break-up, partially based on the existence of that scene. More on this below. 

(Also, side note, now we know that Min-woo knows. And, whoa, seemed to actually be supportive of his homeboy in the relationship -- Min-woo hadn’t tried to get them to break up, I guess?)

3) I believe the writers are setting up a moral dilemma conflict for Min-woo that I might be here for. NOT a hard bet, because I think he’s still scheming, but I wonder.

I also think that Su-yeon is fixing to be a freaking superhero vis à vis that dilemma. I’m getting that from the preview for ep. 15, where we see Su-yeon protecting Young-woo from reporters.

4) I’m seeing fam on the tag calling out CEO Han for being evil and scheme-y, but we already knew she was, and Young-woo’s dad knows this, too. Her scheme is not a surprise to me. Her hiring of Young-woo was going to lead to something like this. I just want to know their background in law school. Maybe CEO Han has a hereditary competition with Tae Su-mi. I want to know that juicy juicy drama. 

(I wrote this before, but this is why I think CEO Han eats Min-woo over this somehow. At least I hope so.)

(Frankly, and I know this is bad of me because it puts Young-woo in the middle of all of this shit, but I hope CEO Han blinks out Tae Su-mi. I think Tae Su-mi is pure evil.)

5) I think the big themes of this episode were: compassion, empathy, creativity, and revelation. Here’s why.

I believe the stories of Attorney Jung and Young-woo are linked. He’s the elder -- a senior partner who ignored his personal life, who ignored the people who loved him personally, to live and breathe the law. As his ex-wife notes, he’s more alive when talking to an attorney than when talking to her.

Wasn’t Young-woo the same as she was breaking up with Jun-ho? She was more energized about her law revelation than about communicating the reasons for the break-up. She kept that part to herself. And Jun-ho, bless him, was asking for that reasoning, continuing to demand to Young-woo that she work on empathizing with him.

We know that communicatively, there is a lot that Young-woo and Jun-ho need to say to each other. But this IS a drama, and the writers need to stave off that content to wrap up the series next week. 

However, I REALLY think we saw a lot of compassionate growth in Young-woo this episode. We saw her ignore Attorney Jung’s insistence to not fuss over him. We saw her absorbing the words of the song about the burden of love at the noraebang. We see her looking at Jun-ho on the plane. 

I think the way the writers are building Young-woo’s self-awareness and self-growth is absolutely gorgeous. In many instances, it’s wordless. Because -- we see her, as she’s growing into her adulthood, learning the words to use in these moments.

Autistic or not, aren’t we all doing that, growing as adults, learning about our emotions and ourselves? What’s the difference here, between her and Attorney Jung? Not a lot, in this moment. 

6) Jun-ho and ex-wife Ji-su, the two lonely left-behind lovers. Ji-su says she left Attorney Jung because of her loneliness. We see Jun-ho in his loneliness on the beach, left behind because Young-woo will not take him to where she thinks she’s going -- to always need to be cared for in her life, leaving her lover lonely.

First, we know she doesn’t need to be as cared for as she thinks, because we know she’s a breadwinning baddie. (She’s confident enough to take care of herself as the rest of the team eats the meat noodles with her take-away gimbap. She’s like -- I got me.)

Second, I don’t believe the break-up is final because of the pep talk Attorney Jung gives to Jun-ho. I think there’s a communication ultimatum between these two lovebirds, and Young-woo will need to decide to step up and believe she’s worthy of love, AND that she’s more independent than general society makes her think she is. 

7) This is where I think creativity comes in. After that pep talk, I think Jun-ho is fixing to fight for love. God help us, I think this is finally when some communication will take place.

Also, separately, creativity and empathy: I agree with Young-woo that we saw Attorney Jung at his absolute best when speaking to the Abbot at the end of the episode. Speaking to an opposing client is definitely skirting the edges of legal ethics. But he suggests that the temple work with Hanbada’s government affairs team, which is not technically a legal team. Genius. He wants to proactively help in the best way HE can. 

Did you see how proud of the team he was when his rookie attorneys were pitching the noodle restaurant owner? He’s realized he’s passed on his wisdom, creativity, and empathy. A huge law firm pitching a restaurant owner in Jeju. Even Min-woo getting into it. I love how the love for Attorney Jung is deeply spread out here.

8) One more point on empathy and compassion.

Did you notice, when ex-wife Ji-su was speaking to Young-woo, what was behind Ji-su?

It was a poster about women’s health. I can’t read Korean, but I did notice the small pink graphic of a set of ovaries. 

(Nothing like that will ever get past a mama.)

That shot almost certainly was not an accident.

Part of Ji-su’s sadness is likely not having a family with Attorney Jung. Yet she cared enough for him to fly down from Seoul to Jeju. And is concerned enough about his health to want him to have an earlier surgery.

Despite their break-up -- there’s still love and caring.

Despite Young-woo’s and Jun-ho’s break-up -- there’s still love and caring.

And, I think by including that poster in that shot, it gives us something to chew on. Young-woo, right now, is thinking she’s not deserving of love because she’ll leave her lover lonely in his caretaking of her. 

But I think -- in the most subtle, gorgeous way possible -- the writers have left us asking: can Young-woo deserve love and family of her own?

We all know that answer.

Magnus Archives Season One Thoughts

Alright so I finished the first season of The Magnus Archives and I have plenty of thoughts.

I love John Sims- what a guy what a man! The man of all time. There's no way that this man wasn’t born with an office job, John came out of the womb a tax player. I love how the va changes his voice to match the stories but I just picture John getting really into reading these statements. The others watch from a distance as he gets into character. This is the only joy he gets from his job. He could log into a zoom meeting completely dressed while everyone else is still in pajamas. He wakes up at like 5:30 and organizes spoons or something. The heart to heart he has with Martin in the finale is living in my head rent free. “Because I’m scared” Ohmy goshhhhh. Local man denies what’s right in front of him because he doesn’t want to confront the unknown. I can’t even blame him like it can’t be easy to learn that there is no god only incomprehensible creatures that only want you dead. But he is also just a rude little man. I adore him. I can’t wait to watch him fall deep into paranoia 

The other three are so normal. Like Sasha, Martin, Tim? Normal people. These are just guys and I also love them. Like I don’t have a lot of thoughts about Tim except that I think he would’ve been the nice jock when he was a teen. Sasha and Martin have come head first with the worms and he’s like :D. Until the ending where he’s like D:. Idk why John doesn’t like Martin but I do. Martin to me is just like, he’s the new guy he just got out of school and doesn’t want to upset his boss. I think he and Sasha would watch cartoons together idk. Local man lives in the break room. 

I can’t choose a single favorite story, I think my favorites are The Piper, Lost Johns’ Cave, Cheating Death, Free Fall, and Jane’s one I can’t remember which one that was. But I honestly enjoyed them all. Despite just being audio it does a really good job of painting the picture. Like in free fall, the man just gets lost inside a windows background. The sky eats a guy and we just move past it. I really like Cheating Death and The Piper because of the historical stuff and I’m like :D!!! The Cave one was awful (In a good way) . I don't understand cavers. Why would you ever squish through a tiny space on Earth what the heck. Then the audio 

I didn’t know how they were going to pull off an attack but it worked really well! I am a little worried that as the series goes on it’ll lose some of its magic but I hope it doesn’t and I have faith. Once again I love John and Martin’s heart to heart and how John wants to be remembered. He’s been reading all these cases about people meeting unfortunate fates and people not knowing what happened to them, heck, homeboy doesn’t even know what happened to Guertrude. I don’t blame him. And the reveal of her being shot to death was something I wasn’t expecting. I was thinking that she would either be still alive somewhere or something something evil being but no, she’s just dead in a tunnel. Like John, I too was unsettled. I do not trust Elias. He hasn’t done anything but I do not trust him. I also do not trust that this is Sasha. She totally got wormed.

So at the end I just want to know more about these characters, like why are they here, what made John want to work here. Plz, John. That one conversation he and Sasha had “I don’t think this is a normal job” y’all work in the ghost place. Y’all work in the ghost place!! 

Concluding thoughts: Yeah. I gotta draw these guys and I’m looking forward to season two

[theageofsims]

I feel like I lost a whole handful of screencaps for the No Skills, No Problem Scenario and I probably did as I started playing it about 5 months ago? I don't even remember. Anyway...

I really liked this scenario which didn't come as a surprise because it's along the lines of Rags to Riches and that's literally my most favorite challenge (so far) in all of my simming experience though I haven't done one since Sims 3 (actually that was my only one).

It was difficult until suddenly it wasn't, but in the very beginning I was like... this chick is gonna be outside FOREVER. At one point Carly was strung out on coffee so I literally had her inventory filled.

I clearly forgot she was lactose intolerant a bunch of times so I was surprised when she ate a canned custard thing and ended up throwing up (I feel like it's so hard to have your sims barf in Sims 4?...)

Anyway -- I didn't care if she got into a relationship or not, but I kind of started developing a story with Knox because I wanted Knox to be THAT DUDE -- but the MOFO WAS NOT THAT DAMN DUDE! Knox was like the biggest asshole I had ever seen in all of my life. He kept calling her to inform her that he found some chick cute, then another, and another, and another. By the first call and the first chick I was like FORGET YOU, KNOX... but to have him continue? Ugh. It was like a broken record every time I turned the game on he kept on calling. And Carly actually made romantic gestures towards him to test his reactions and he was repulsed by her every time. I just could not.

Then Mortimer happened. I lowkey was like Mortimer deserves to step out on Bella because I was throwing shade to Bella in my The Age of Sims story. Stories shouldn't mix... but that's what my brain instantly thought of.

But Mortimer was shady as hell because he kept quitting his job every time Carly met up wit him and then before you know it MC Command Center showed me that he had Cassandra and Alexander... and like two toddlers and an infant. I'm like... Carly can't be these babies step-mother. I don't know why I thought that, but I was like HELL... no.

Mortimer actually froze to death which was terrible. I had Carly take his remains back home... for Bella and his like army of children to deal with.

What else? Oh there were other dudes. Some of them even died from old age. They were just friends, but still. She got on really well with that Kim guy (from the Lewis family?)... yeah I had high hopes, but that didn't work out.

Clement showed up on one of her dumpster dives on Christmas Day, but I didn't think it'd amount to anything... until it did.

At one point I saw where he lived and I'm like... this dude has got money. If they marry, does the scenario end? Yup -- it does.

Carly ended up with 600,000 which is 200,000 more than you need to finish the scenario.

I was alright with that after all the hell I went through with Carly -- just from the dudes that kept treating her like garbage.

Who was I most disappointed in? KNOX. Because Knox was supposed to be THAT DUDE.

I don't know about Knox other than the fact he's from Eco Lifestyle, but I literally thought homeboy was a decent dude. He's an asshole and I officially do not like him... unless he comes correct in a future challenge/scenario.

Retrograde: The Beginning

Before time began, there was...the Cube. We know not where it comes from, only that it holds the power to create worlds and fill them with life. That is how our race was born. For a time we lived in harmony, but like all great power, some wanted it for good...others for evil. And so, began the war. A war that ravaged our planet until it was consumed by death. And the Cube was lost to the far reaches of space. We scattered across the galaxy, hoping to find it and rebuild our home. Searching every star, every world. And just when all hope seemed lost, a message of a new discovery drew us to an unknown planet called...Earth. But we were already too late.

I yawned tiredly as I waited for my friend Sam to pick me up. He'd called the previous night, going on and on about his new car which is why I was so tired. I had agreed to see it only if he took me for a spin in it. I liked cars, especially old classics like a ‘70 Plymouth Hemi Barracuda. Man, those things were a turn-on, especially when you actually got under the hood.

Did I mention I was a mechanic? No? Must've slipped my mind. Well, I wasn't official, but I helped my father between classes and he taught me all I know about cars. Classics were my favorite because they're so rare and so beautiful.

Hearing the rumble of an engine, I looked up and gawked at a yellow 1967 Camaro with black racing stripes that pulled into my driveway. Behind the wheel was none other than Samuel Witwicky. “Wha..? How..? Cheap..?” I couldn't get any actual sentences out, but thankfully Sam knew what I was trying to say.

“Got it at a used dealership for $4000. Dad paid for half so long as I got three A's,” he answered.

“Wow. A wash and this thing'll be a real beauty. Not that it's not already.”

“.... you wanna check under the hood, don't you?” Sam asked after a moment of silence.

I grinned in response. “You know me too well, Sammy. Pop the hood?”

He did so and I took a gander at what was underneath. I let out a low whistle at the engine. “Aren't you beautiful?” I commented to the Z28 302 ci V8. The engine revved as if appreciating the compliment and I laughed. “Alright Sam, don't get full of yourself. Let's go for that ride.”

A couple of hours later, we pulled up to a lake with Sam's friend Miles in the back seat. I tilted my head at all the cars around. “Dude, are you sure we're invited to this party?” Miles asked and I facepalmed. There was some girl here that Sam was trying to impress with his new car. “Not gonna work,” I mumbled quietly. “Of course, Miles. It's a lake. Public property,” Sam responded, shooting me a look as we got out of the car. “Oh, my God. Oh, my God, dude, Mikaela's here. Just don't do anything weird, all right?”

Looking around, I spotted a girl with dark hair with a jock-type dude next to a Hummer. Nice car, dick dude. I thought. “I'm good, right?” Sam asked. “Yeah, you're good,” Miles answered.

Seeing the jock dude coming over, I crossed my arms to watch. This should be good.

“Hey, guys, check it out.” The jock from before greeted us. “Oh, hi,” Sam greeted nervously. “Hey, bro. That car. It's nice. Hey.”

Sarcasm dripped from his voice and I wanted to punch him. “Yo, homeboy,” I called, gaining his attention. “Respect the classics, man.”

“Who are you? Brainiac's girlfriend?”

“Local car enthusiast, actually. My father runs the garage on 32nd.”

“Oh, yeah I thought I recognized you both. You're old man Phoenix's daughter.”

“I am,” I agreed.

“And you tried out for the football team last year, right?"

"Oh no, no, that... No. That wasn't like a real tryout. I was researching a book I was writing,” Sam bluffed.

“Oh, yeah?” “Yeah.”

“Yeah? What's it about? Sucking at sports?” I wanted to punch this asshole so bad. “No, it's about the link between brain damage and football. No, it's a good book.  Your friends'll love it. You know, it's got mazes in it and, you know, little coloring areas, sections, pop-up pictures. It's a lot of fun.” I snickered at his quick wit, satisfied I wouldn't have to jump in.

“That's funny.”

Then the chick I'd noticed earlier stepped in, holding jock-itch back. “Okay, okay. You know what? Stop,” she advised. As the two of them left, I glanced over at Sam. “Really man? That's the kind of girl you want to get with?”

He shrugged uncomfortably. “I can't help it, ok?”

I rolled my eyes before getting back in the car. “Whatever you say, Romeo. Honestly, I wish you luck.”

“Thanks, Sandra.”

Who's gonna drive you home, tonight? The radio suddenly played, though no one touched the dial. That's interesting, I thought, looking at the car's radio. AI technology? No, maybe it's just faulty wiring.

“Hey, man, what's wrong with your radio?” Miles asked. “I'm gonna drive her home tonight,” Sam commented, noticing Mikaela walking away. “What? She's an evil jock concubine, man. Let her hitchhike.”

“Don't be an ass, Miles,” I argued. “She lives 10 miles from here, okay? It's my only chance. You got to be understanding here, all right?” Sam tried to reason. “All right. We'll put her in the back. I'll be quiet.”

“The hell you will!” I protested. “Did you say, 'put her in the back’?” “I called shotgun.” “I'm not putting her in the back. You gotta get out of my car.” “That's a party foul.”

“What rules?” “Bros before hos.”

“Grow up, Miles. No one follows that rule.” “Miles, I'm begging you to get out of my car. Okay?” “You can't do this to me.”

“Well, he is. Deal with it.” “You gotta get out of my car right now.”

Miles got out of the car and Sam drove over to Mikaela. “Sandra, please don't ruin this for me.”

“Dude, you're my best friend. I'm not going to cock block you.”

“Sandra!”

“Oh, come on. I know you want her.”

“Please just shut up.”

It was nighttime when we finally dropped her off. When he commented “more than meets the eye”, I almost busted a gut. He was so freaking awkward. “So, you think I blew my chance?” Sam asked as he drove me home.

“Hmm? Nah, man. You got her attention. You just gotta make sure you can keep it,” I responded.

“You're a good friend.”

“Thanks. And if you beat the shit out of bumblebee again, I'll take her from you.”

“Bumble-her? What?”

I pointed to the bumblebee dangling from the rearview. “I'm nicknaming it that with the bee. Besides, all cars are girls, aren't they?”

“I never really put gender to an inanimate object.”

“Well, most machinery is female for some reason like ships, cars, and whatnot.”

“I see. Well, goodnight Sandra.”

“Night Sam. I'll see you tomorrow.”

TW: talk of suicide and violence

WHOOP WHOOP 🗣🗣🔥🔥

'Suicide hotline, may I help you?'

Yeah, uh, well, I'm about to fucking kill myself.

'Listen you don't want to do that, ok? You don't want to do that'

I'm gonna, eh, there's so many fucking reasons why I don't even need to be here anymore.

'There's no reason-'

I'm gonna put a slug in my fucking head!

Music ask!

3, 9, 15

19, 20, 23

27

(sorry for so many!)

Never too many, I love doing these because it helps me think about the music I listen to! Thank you for the asks!!

3:A song that reminds you of summertime

Too Hot in L.A. (Woody and Jeremy, of Vulfpeck)- That bassline grabs my soul and transports me to summer. Simple arrangement also makes me feel summerish!

(Barbecutie by Sparks also makes me feel very summery!)

9:A song that makes you happy

Suburban Homeboy (Sparks)- Instant laughter and serotonin. Need I elaborate?

15:A song that is a cover by another artist

Babe I’m Gonna Leave You (Led Zeppelin cover of Joan Baez’s song)- I didn’t even know it was a cover until recently! The emotion that Plant captures in the cover is phenomenal though, I think it really made it sound original.

19:A song that makes you think about life

What Do It Mean (Lord Huron)- God, this songgg. Absolutely existential but in a hopeful way? Like most Lord Huron Songs. Encapsulates the feeling that nobody understands life, but it’s gotta mean something. The line ‘So much to say but my words mean nothing/a life spent talking when my epitaph would do’. Ben. Ben, my friend, are you alright?

20:A song that has many meanings to you

Rock ‘n’ Roll Suicide (David Bowie)- Absolutely depressing listening to it when I’m happy, absolutely motivational and happy listening to it when I’m sad. A song where it really feels like Bowie is directly talking to you.

23:A song that you think everybody should listen to

Innuendo (Queen)- First time hearing it: ‘Okay this is something, that’s nice wait is this a classical Spanish interlude?? I think it is. I think it is! AN ELECTRIC GUITAR SPANISH INTERLUDE???’ The bridge part is heavenly. 10/10. Also slightly existential and about life.

27:A song that breaks your heart

All Dead All Dead (Queen)- Brian, are you okay? Depressing song, but the solo part around 2 minutes in, where the guitar sounds almost hopeful and then it just fades out, leaving the listener feeling this immense loneliness, CHILLS. Here’s another because I could not pick just one…

The Suburbs (Arcade Fire)- Heard someone cover this at an open mic in town and it touched me. Captures this weird anxiety and sadness and the lyrics really slice my heart open 🥲

[shotorozu]

hullo, hope ur having a great day. Do you know that thing where people’s girlfriend shows their boyfriend how a tampon works? Like they demonstrate using a bottle and show their boyfriends, can I have that for the big three? ty and godbless 😚

how it works

character(s) : midoriya izuku, todoroki shouto, bakugou katsuki

legend : [Y/N = your name] quirk not specific, i used they/them pronouns but Y/N has a 🐱

headcanon type : crack (literally one mildy dirty joke from bakugou but that’s it)

note(s) : anon specified that they meant the main three in another message so,, do not be confused with that part. uhh i don’t use tampons either so how they worked really confused me 💀

»»————-　♡　————-««

midoriya izuku

to start off with this post, i’d say you’d have to show him. like— he’s not the type to straight up ask you how a tampon works

but he is kinda curious so..

he lives with his mom, and only his mom. so it’s not like periods are a totally foreign subject to him. BUT HIS MOM DIDN’T SHOW HIM HOW TAMPONS WORK

and he didn’t have any female friends, or any girlfriends before you so.. yeah.

moving on, he’ll get all red and flustered when you first ask him-

“izuku, do you know how tampons work?” it was wrong of you to ask him while he was STUDYING

“t-tampons??” he’ll immediately drop his pen, the blood rushing to his cheeks immediately.

but, because izuku is quite CURIOUS, he’ll say yes. he probably wouldn’t have gotten the guts to ask you upfront anyway

you prepare a clear reusable cup, and you’d fill it with water as you get ready the tampon

“ok, so this is how it works.”

you say that as a warning, just before you plung the tampon into the water

and izuku’s there, nodding— waiting for you to demonstrate to him how it works he sounded really excited NJWJDWJ

anyways, you dip the tampon into the water— and izuku’s eyes widen like saucers when he sees it EXPAND

holding it up, you show him what it looks like, the size of the tampon expanding twice it’s size in a matter of seconds.

“o-oh.” izuku lets out, startled.

he’ll start glancing back and forth between the wall, and the soaked material— clearly flustered, and also unsure what he’s looking at.

“does it really get that big?” he asks in a whisper like tone, as if he didn’t want anyone to hear him

and you just nod, amused by izuku’s face— which is literally like this 😳

needless to say, he has a lot of respect for you. especially if you can use tampons so casually

but at least he knows how it works, but this will probably keep him awake at night for a bit

out of all of the characters in this list, he’s the most mortified (in a way) it’s almost amusing.

todoroki shouto

shouto will just straight up ask you himself.

pure definition of shower thoughts. he thinks a lot in the shower (thus why he’s kind of a conspiracy theorist.)

so he probably thought of that during the shower— and he didn’t really wanna ask just any of his girl classmates.

yeah, he has a sister. but all she ever did was disappear for a few days once a month,

he obviously has his mother too, he wasn’t exactly close to her either because he was isolated from his mom, and even his own siblings

but then he remembers he has you, his s/o so..

he immediately rushing towards you, entering your room in his usual manner, asking you how it works (with his blunt nature of course)

and you’re just like 🤠❓❓ “..why do you wanna know”

shouto just tilts his head, “i thought of it during the shower.” his curiosity quite raw “and.. i have no one else to ask.”

and you can tell he means well so.. you kiss his cheek and stand up “alright! follow me.”

fastforward, you sit on the counter as you fill a clear glass with water, while you prepare the tampon

“you ready, shou?” again, you say that as if you were warning him— but he only nods, watching attentively to see what would happen.

you dip the tampon in the cup, and it immediately absorbs the water— expanding by a lot

the color in shouto’s face drains, and he’s just there like 😦 “woah.”

“it expanded by a lot.”

“yeah, it does that.”

“can you feel it when it expands?” shouto asks, holding the string to check how heavy it is

and unlike the other two in this list, he’s brave enough to actually hold the string, not disgusted whatsoever

“hm.. i don’t know? it feels normal.” you shrug, opting to just look at shouto’s reaction

“i see.” he nods, “thanks, Y/N.” he kisses your cheek, before hoisting you off the counter

he’s glad he knows but.. he has a lot of respect for you if you can wear one every month.

homeboy just thought it just stayed like that the entire time

out of all of the boys, he’s more chill— seeing that for the first time. but he’ll probably ask if you want to use pads out of concern NWNSNSJZ

bakugou katsuki

no.

nope.

he does not want to know.

it probably came across his mind a couple of times before, but as of now? he’s not curious. not in the slightest

it’s not like he thinks periods and tampons are gross. he respects you for dealing with that shit— but he’s just not curious.

on the contrary, you still ask him if he wants to know how tampons work.

in this case, you use pads— but you already know it expands to that size already.

“kats, are you curious as to how tampons work?” you ask him one day, when you guys are just relaxing in your room

he turns his head slowly, looking at you in the eye “... no.”

“why though??”

“don’t you just plug ‘em in, and then take it out?” katsuki rolls his eyes as if it was that simple

“it’s not that simple though,”

“i still don’t wanna know.” katsuki insists, voice gruff “actually.. why are you asking me? don’t ‘cha use pads or some shit?”

he’s right but you choose to ignore him

“so you wanna die one day, knowing you don’t know how tampons work?” you tease, grinning at him

he only rolls his eyes. he doesn’t really want to know, but again— he can’t really resist you anyway

so he finally says yes. “fineee. but make it quick.”

moments later, you’re in the bathroom, filling a clear cup with water. katsuki just stands by the door way, watching you prepare the items

for dramatic effect, you added red food coloring, which earned a scoff from your boyfriend “what’s the food coloring for?”

“dramatic effect. and also accuracy.” bakugou only grimaces

you tell him to go closer, moments before you show him “okay. you’re about to see how this works.”

“just get on with it,” he says, feigning impatience— but you know he’s actually watching

you dip it in, and katsuki had to do a literal double take— watching how a small cylinder turned into a weird.. red floppy sponge

bakugou’s standing there, a hand on his hip like 🤨 “what am i even looking at?” his ears cringe at the sound of it dripping back into the cup

and your face is just 😟 huh BECAUSE YOU USE PADS AJDJWJSJ

“i.. don’t know??” you laugh at his reaction, and he honestly doesn’t wanna hold it even though he knows it’s just water with food coloring

“it was literally a cylinder a second ago.” he comments outloud, brows furrowed and face contorted in utter confusion.

“i know right?” you comment in amusement, “i mean.. i knew how it works but i never saw this in person.”

“ah yeah, it’s because you use diapers.”

katsuki teases. you know he’s just joking, but you still glare at him like 👺

and he just holds his hands up in resignation “sorry.”

in short, it was quite weird to see it expand in real time. but at least bakugou katsuki knows how tampons work.

“but i’m still bigger.” katsuki kisses your temple, before turning around and exiting the bathroom— going back to your bed.

you’re appalled.

[visibly shaking and crying] hey, Satoru redemption arc antis, [sniff] y-y-y-you, you got what you wanted [sniff] toji fuckers [sniff] it’s our time [sniff] i-i-it’s our time t-to shine [cries harder]

—that is the first and last time I type shit like that, anyways, i took a break from slandering Satoru and instead now i found a new hobby of defending homeboy now for fixing his wrong doings. I say i don’t believe in second chances but in reality i give everyone irl second, third, even eighth chances. As i see it is that fuck a second chance because if you do give someone a second chance it meant that they fucked what would have been their only chance (idk if that makes sense), however second chances, imo, are only valid if they do show that they learned and grew from their previous shit and now i’m rambling. WHAT IM SAYING IS THAT SATORU DEFINITELY IS VALID FOR A REDEMPTION ARC BUT I LIKE DRAMA AND THROUGHLY ENJOYED THE ENDING WAYY TO MUCH

–This is how i imagine Satoru walking back into his apartment after all of THAT

Disclaimer: i could have edited that better but rn isn’t the time

ALRIGHT WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING TO SAY AND I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, LEMME HEAR YALL SAY IT: 📢FUCK🔊//📢THEM🔊//📢KIDS🔊

part of me was so happy that Sera was negative and Ieiri was so quick to put her in her place [deservingly] because god damn for claiming that MC is selfish and entitled, that’s so hilarious to hear her say that, considering her track history of entitlement, egotistical and narcissistic tendencies, shits hilarious.

Bitches and Bros, and Non Binary hoes, [respectfully] Naoya

On god, fuck Naoya, I don’t, what crawled up his ass and died along with any sense of kindness is beyond me and what i would like to know why does this sense of evil manipulative genius kinda hot? IM SORRY BUT IM LIVING FOR THE DRAMA. As much as i enjoy the idea of fucking shit up on the expense of Sera getting used, now that it’s put into practice, i really do feel bad for her, like damn Sera thought she did something while MC just was so done with her shit and just ENDED her existence with one sentence ONCE AGAIN IM LIVING FOR THIS,

I COULDNT FIT A MEME OF HOW I FEEL ABOUT TOJI BOUT TO MAKE A MOVE HOWEVER IM INTERNALLY SCREAMING BECAUSE HOMIE ALMOST SLIDE INTO THIS HEART AND BETWEEN THEM LEGS TOO IF HE REALLY WANTED TO- THE SEEN IS LIVING IN MY HEAD RENT FREE I CANNOT

I hope you’re doing well and you take care! Please take your time and don’t rush yourself with any future chapters, you deserve to put yourself and your health first rather than this, this ask is already way too long, but to sum all of this up:

Saint, respectfully and platonically, hand in marriage pls <3

YULI OMG THE GIF IM LAUGHING SO HARDJFJS AND UR GOD TIER MEMES AS ALWAYS 😭���😭 help ur intro to this ask too i rly enjoyed reading through this, thank u <333

#saintobio.asks #series: sincerely not #sn: memes

[havin-fun-imagining-twd]

It’s not the end of the wor - oh.

Word Count - 2,600

Perspective - 2nd person

When - after you have your chat with Dale in “Deserved” (Quarry era); in the show, the episode “Vatos.” For the rest of the Slowpoke Series, here’s the Masterlist.

Relationships - you and the gang! (as always, of course! The specific gang members start with just your big bro and Carol in this installment, before we get most of the fam all there for the setup of the next story. This little drabble is just a quick follow-up to “Deserved” Pts 1-2 and is a transition to the next part - in which I promise we’ll see Dary-bear returned to us, but homeboy’s busy in Atlanta rn, so we gotta wait)

Genre - no idea, my friends, but this one errs on the fluffier side, I reckon

Pronouns - kept it neutral, but there’s a heavy implication that you are a woman. In addition, your character has that nagging feeling you may be familiar with where you just want to make sure that your eyebrows look okay.

TWs - discussions of spousal and parental abuse including the reveal of parental abuse of a major character, and some language.

*points to whoever gets the little Easter egg joke thrown in there :D *

“Heya, weirdo.” Shane sounds a touch awkward.

“Hiya, loser.” So do you, for that matter.

“Can I come in? Lemme take a look at that jaw again?” he asks.

You shrug to yourself and unzip your tent, taking off the one earbud you had in and turning off your mp3. He steps in, sits down, and you extend your chin for him. His fingers barely touch your rapidly forming bruise as he looks at it and frowns.

In a gentler tone than your big brother usually used, he tells you “I meant it when I said you did good, alright? You did very good.”

You tilt your head slightly. “It was reckless and dangerous and risky.”

“Yes,” he admitted, then he paused. “That ain’t what Dale was tellin’ you in there, was it?”

“No, not at all He was just sort of lettin’ me work it out, with a touch of philosfofy – oh my gosh, why in the hell can’t I pronounce that word today? Philo-sophy.”

“Might can that be another migraine comin’?”

You raise your eyebrows, impressed. “Look at you, all up on your pre-migraine stuff.”

“Ahem, that’s the ‘prodrome phase,’ weirdo,” he drawls, winking. “Let’s hope the weather’s cooler tomorrow so you can sleep when it hits.”

Bless his heart, he was definitely trying to be sweet. “I love you, too, Shaney,” you smile. You hope that you were just tired, and wouldn’t get another migraine so soon. Please, you beg silently. Headaches, whatever, but migraines? Not conducive to the end of civilization.

You attempt to tap where you’d gotten smacked as delicately as you could, since it was already aching. “Does my jaw look real bad, or nah?”

“It looks like whenever I’ll see it, I’ll feel good about how Ed looks.”

You try not to wince. And there had to have been something that you had intended to say in reply but you end up staring into space for a few moments instead. “Um, you, um, you seen Lori? Is she mad?”

“Not about Ed.”

Hm? That was a weird response. “What do you mean?” You thought you’d noticed tension between them earlier, but didn’t think much of it. Friends fight.

“She thinks I lied about Rick, pretty sure.”

“What would make her think that?” Shane had no reason to lie about believing his best friend dead. Then it occurred to you “Wait, she don’t think I lied too, right?”

Your brother shook his head and insisted “No way, it’s fine.”

A silence settled between you two. “What about Carol?” you asked nervously. “You talk to her?”

“Yeah.”

A little too quickly, you rush to ask “How is she? And how’s Sophia?”

“Hey, they’re fine, Y/N, it’s okay. And for a while, they’re gonna be safer, too.”

“But what about when he’s up and walkin’ again?”

“We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it, okay?”

You exhale. “Well, what did she say? What did Carol say?”

“She apologized –”

“ – Ugh, of course she did,” you whimper, burying your face in your hands before flinching “Ow!” when you accidentally rub the side of your jaw that got hurt.

Shane also flinched when you accidentally pressed your injury, but continues with what he was saying “ – She also thanked me. Thanked us.”

“Well, what else was she gonna say?” you start, feeling your emotions get the better of you again. “Apologize, then roll over, just like she’s been groomed to –”

“No, that’s not why,” Shane replied, and firmly, too. “I promised her that he wasn’t gonna put a hand on her or Sophia ever again, whatever it took. And I meant it, I mean it. He ain’t hurtin’ them again,” he insists, a little louder than he ought.

“How are you gonna promise that, Shane?”

“However I gotta. I don’t know her situation, but I know that women like that hear that shit all the time and learn not to trust it from the cops. But so far, I backed up what I said, so...”

Yeah, he sure did. He’d almost beaten Ed to death, before stopping himself and promising him that he would do it the next time that Ed laid another finger on anyone else.

Your conversation with Dale kept running through your head. “How’s that different from mob justice?”

“It ain’t a mob, it’s just me. And c’mon, he’s an abuser. You think he’s gonna change?”

“What are you, the Punisher?”

“What’s your suggestion, then? A restraining order?” he spits out.

Yeah, he’s definitely mad. You don’t blame him. It’s personal.

You try your next statement in a different tone of voice. “I’m worried about you.” It's been harder and harder to see him, if that makes sense. Well, it doesn't, but, um, you guess it's that he's been somehow less recognizable? Less like himself. Sure, everyone has changed after what happened to the world, but...whatever, you don't know.

“Well, I appreciate your worry.”

Yeah, right.

“Don’t patronize me. There ain’t nothing wrong with me worryin’ about you when I know this shit is personal.”

“Then don’t preach at me,” he snaps back. “And please, keep your voice down.”

You say nothing in reply, you only lay down and stare into space.

He does the same. You both need to breathe for a minute. That’s all it took to calm down, really. Quick to get angry, quick to cool off.

Your mama had taught all of you that. Just stop for a while to settle down, like taking a tea kettle off the burner. It’s funny: you and your siblings aren’t all fully blood related, but you all were taught and used the same coping mechanisms, even your sister who joined you as a foster when she was 15.

“I also, um, I-I accidentally let it slip to Dale that mama was...treated bad once,” you tell him.

You hear his breath catch for a moment. Next he says “It’s okay. Not the end of the world.”

“But I didn’t say nothing about you,” you assure him quietly.

He thought you’d spilled his secret, too. Yeah, nope. Unless Dale assumed your mom’s first husband was Shane’s bio dad, then no. You knew well how people could immediately put up defenses around or prejudge those who came from a bad situation, because they labeled them as loose cannons or damaged goods.

“Hey,” he repeats, turning to you. “It’s okay. And it wouldn’t be the end of the world even if you had.”

You bite your lip and make a goofy sort of face at him. “Maybe use a different phrase than ‘it’s not the end of the world,’ hm?”

“Aw shit,” He bursts out into a laugh at that one. “Fair play, okay. And hey, sorry for gettin’ all...”

“Huffy?”

“I got real huffy. And don’t ever apologize to me for remindin’ me about...” he trails off again. He’s fiddling with his ‘22′ necklace he always wears.

“What? About morals, Shaney?” you say, pursing your lips.

“You are a pain in my ass.”

“Well right now, I am a pain in my jaw, tell you what.”

He sighs, and speaks all gently again. “Wanna go check it out in the RV mirror?”

“Only if you promise I won’t run into nobody on the way,” you groan, and very dramatically. You aren’t really being too serious. Yeah, you don’t want to have to show your face, but also it’s not the end of the wor – oops. You mean to say: it could be worse.

“You will run into everybody,” Shane assures you.

Now it’s your turn to sigh. “Ugh, I wish I could scurry off on another hunt with Daryl right about now.” You wipe your eyes and heave another big sigh. “Do my eyebrows look okay?”

And to that, Shane doesn’t seem to know how to react at first. You’d think he wasn’t used to hearing those sorts of things after growing up with sisters and dating so many women. “Eyebrows, really?”

“Says Mr. Shaves-His-Chest,” you drone, smug expression on your face. You grab your eyebrow pencil from your bag along with your tweezers. Eh, you rethink the tweezers but keep the pencil. Why get fancy, just keep your brows looking naturally full and you’ll be chill.

“First you wish you could run off into the woods with the redneck, then you worry about your appearance in the same breath; should I worry?”

“I don’t give a hoot about how Daryl Dixon thinks I look, oh my gosh,” you snort, crawling out of the tent. “But by the way – that choke hold was illegal.”

He crawls out after you, stands, and stretches his back. “And I told him he could file a complaint.” He pauses then asks “Want me to show you again? Especially how to fight off somebody bigger than you?”

“Show me all the moves, man. I don’t want to get a cool bruise like this ever again without puttin’ up a better show.”

There was something about his voice when he answers “Yeah, I don’t want you to find yourself in that position ever again neither,” that makes you put you reach up to put an arm around his shoulders for a moment. He returns the gesture, mumbling “Love you, weirdo. And from what I saw, you weren't too bad.”

“Love you, loser,” you smile back at him."Th-thank you."

Aaaand as he takes his arm off, he musses your hair. You should’ve seen it coming. “Never mind, I loathe you forever,” you pretend to pout, stomping away to the start of the path down to the quarry. Amy radioed when she and her sister went fishing, so you wanted to give them a wave.

“Hey, where you going?”

“I’m wavin’ to Amy.”

“What are you, twelve?”

“Psht, says the one who keeps his chest smooth like a prepubescent boy’s.”

Next, you swallow and try to look casual as the two of you walk to the RV. It’s the first time you’ve seen anyone other than Dale since the incident with Ed earlier that day.

Was that Jim all the way up there? Yeah, that was definitely Jim. But what’s he doing?

Looked like he was doing some sort of digging. Digging a toilet, maybe? Kind of a hot day for it, but that was certainly admirable.

Eliza and Sophia are on some crates in the shade, thoroughly absorbed in whatever they’re coloring. Carl catches your gaze and squints, making that “I got-my-eye-on-you” gesture before cracking up and waving. And the next thing you knew, little Luis is running over and asking if you broke you fingers ‘when’ you punched Ed (ughhhhh). Miranda makes an apologetic face at you, and Mr. Morales just mouths it’s okay.

Jacqui walks over and takes your hand in hers, nodding and pecking a quick kiss to your head before returning back to her crossword book. And as you pass by Lori and Carol doing some mending on the “couch” (which is just the backseat from one of the cars that you all used when the weather was dry), you feel your cheeks grow warm and you duck your head in embarrassment and shame.

Lori’s smile is laced with pity, eyes lingering on your jaw, and Carol smile is...you aren’t sure. She looks ashamed, too, you guess. And she shouldn’t, but it doesn’t surprise you.

Then oh no, she’s getting up and walking towards you. “Dale went to go talk to Jim, if you were looking for him,” she lets you and Shane know, not looking Shane in the eyes as much as she is you.

“Nah, someone here,” he begins, clearing his throat, “Wanted to use the RV mirror to fix their eyebrows. Not namin’ names.” And with a wink, he opens the door so you and Carol can walk in, then leaves and gives you two some privacy.

Her hand reaches out as she delicately examines your bruise. Her eyes are wet.

You manage to whisper “I’m so sorry,” before your bottom lip gets all wobbly again.

“No. You and your brother have nothing to be sorry for, Y/N,” she murmurs in her quiet way, eyes glued to that red, black, and blue mark.

“I lost my temper.”

“Well,” she said, her smile sad, “I don’t blame you.”

You weren’t able to formulate an answer at that moment. Carol sees this, takes your hands and quietly thanks you. “Sophia thanks you, too, you know. She actually smiled at your brother after she found out what you and he did.” After placing a soft, motherly kiss on your forehead, she clears her throat, wipes her eyes and smiles. “So, what’s this about your eyebrows, now?”

After you hugged again, cried a little, and made up, you’re sitting with her and Lori on the couch, helping them with the mending, and chatting about the little birthday celebration for Amy that would finally be tomorrow.

“If Glenn is up for a quick run tomorrow, I wanna try to find sprinkles. Amy mentioned wanting cupcakes with ’em,” you mention, tongue halfway out of your mouth as you try to get the stitching on the patch you’re sewing even. “Is that dumb of me to try?”

“Oh Y/N, honey, don’t ask that poor boy to go on another run again after the past two days he’s had, because you know he’ll say yes,” Lori protests, a knowing sort of grin lighting up her face.

“What do you mean? Oh, well I guess,” you consider. “Glenn is sort of a people-pleaser...” And he’ll be really tired after coming home this afternoon or tonight, you suppose.

“That’s not quite what I meant.”

And before that insinuation can fully form in your stomach and fill you with nervous dread, you see a waving hand come into your peripheral vision. You turn and look.

Holy Moses in a basket.

Amy and Andrea are carrying practically a whole school of fish! How did they catch so many in only a couple hours? Was that even possible? And were there were that many fish in the quarry?

The ripped knees on the pants you’re repairing forgotten, you cough out in astonishment “Guess the quarry-monster didn’t scare the fish away,” and raise your arms in a touchdown pose. Mr. Morales comes from around the clothesline, catches your eye, gives you a fist-bump, and exclaims to everyone “Oh baby, will you look at that?” His smile is a mile wide, and he laughs out in glee “Hey, check it out!”

Lori drops her own mending and flat-out claps at their achievement, and a few others join. You sure as heck do, then stand up to go to Amy.

Andrea, satisfied, hands Mr. Morales one of the bunches of fresh fish. He’s practically bowing to them as he praises “Ladies: because of you, my children will eat tonight. Thank you!”

“Thank Dale,” Andrea insists, “It’s his canoe and gear.”  

Amy does a little victory dance as she chugs what’s left in her water bottle. You join the dance, obviously, then watch as Eliza and Sophia follow suit from their little coloring corner.

Jacqui, beaming, high-fives Andrea, and Carl has finally found his words by the time he calls out to his mom in excited astonishment to “Look at all the fish!”

Mr. Morales has having fun holding up the catch to people, and you squeal when he does it to you. Luis runs over next to Carl and, darling little savages they are, they poke the fish and sigh “Whoa.”

“Yeah whoa,” Lori agrees. “Where did you two learn to do that?”

“Our dad,” Amy announces proudly.

“Cool! Can you teach me how to do that?” Carl asks. They’d just had a fishing lesson from Amy a few days ago, actually, but now it would be perfect to expand upon!

“Sure! I’ll teach you all about nail knots and stuff,” Amy answers, then quickly remembers to check with the parents “If that’s okay?”

Carol shrugs and smiles, while Lori nods her head, saying “You won’t find me arguing,” while Miranda and Mr. Morales echo “No objections here.”

You’re still standing and talking with Amy when Dale comes back down from the hill where he’d been talking to Jim.

“Hey Dale,” Andrea calls out. “When’s the last time you oiled those line reels? They are a disgrace!” she jokes.

Wait, what’s wrong? Why does he look so pale? Shoot, is he okay?

“Dale, are you alright?” you ask him. Did he need water? Was he having chest pains? Was his pulse steady?

“I, uh, I don’t want to alarm anyone,” he starts, putting a hand on your shoulder and nodding his head. “But we may have a bit of a problem.”

[waitmyturtles]

Okay, before I become an absolute PUDDLE upon seeing the last of Bad Buddy Pat and Pran later today, and watching more of He's Coming To Me later tonight (do I KNOW how to punish myself, or what) -- some quick thoughts on Step By Step, episode 7.

I do still think this show is too long -- I do think it needs crisper editing. BUT, as I wrote yesterday, I also think the incredibly sharp and deep focus on the development of Pat's feelings is wonderful. So I'm mezze-mezze on the show's construction.

But, this show gives us such a FAIR and BALANCED microscope into Pat's heart. This show treats Pat's developing feelings with COMPASSION, including his emotional outbursts. And how Jeng compliments him for WORKING ON managing -- not controlling! managing! -- his emotions.

I love how Jeng isn't FORCING Pat to SHUT THE DOOR on his emotions. I LOVE THIS.

I think the half-hearted make-out scene with Putz was BRILLIANT. How neither of them were able to say they liked each other -- oof. How Pat really wanted to push it forward, to give it another shot. How fair of him and empathic it was to do that, because he still held a place in his heart for Putz.

How Pat needed time, ALONE, in his house, in that chair he bought with Jeng, to come to realize what was happening between him and Putz. How Pat is learning to love HIMSELF more and not stand for what COULD happen if he stayed with Putz. He's realizing his heart is telling him something else.

Like I wrote yesterday -- it's compassionate to the lens of adult queer relationships. I keep on saying, keep on saying from the frames of Our Skyy 2 x Bad Buddy and Our Skyy 2 x ATOTS that I love that our beloved Thai directors and screenwriters are taking a damn stand to say, alright, we're not in high school anymore, we're adults, working in offices, and dating like adults, and feeling feelings like adults. The frilly thrill of first-ever kisses, we're past that in this show. We're seeing what Pat is learning ABOUT HIMSELF to truly leave Putz behind. We're seeing Pat learning how to respect himself, and to keep his eyes peeled for the other dudes in his life who are attracted to him.

Man. I love this. This is EXACTLY the kind of growth I looked FORWARD to doing in my twenties, and I was able to start doing it in my twenties, because I was conscious of it, and wanted to be a better person. We're seeing Pat learning how to be a better person unto and for himself. God, YES, GO HOMEBOY GO.

AND JENG'S PATIENCE! Yoooooo, Jeng! Long game. Hypocritical much, Jeng? Yes, yes, but Jeng knows that he's PLAYIN' the long game, and that he will likely WIN the long game, because Putz is a damn putz, and fucking not sincere, and is a little POS. Jeng knows that, he clocked Putz for it immediately, and wants to send him home packing.

(GOD, MAN TRISANU IS SO. FUCKING. HOT. GOOD. LORD. LORD!!!! Putz can't EVEN.)

Whew, anyway, heh, Jeng's a winner. Jeng's changing, too. His patience with Pat after that little fucking outburst from that Karen. I wonder how old Jeng would have reacted. If he would have given into the Karen in the first couple of episodes. This show is still also about how Jeng is changing, too.

That's it! I'm having side convos with drama friends about the necessity of the side couples. I'm not really invested in Jaab and Jen at the moment, but I hope that turns around. I want to know more of why Kanoun wants Ae to not work (I mean, maybe just to take advantage of Thailand's INCREDIBLE MATERNITY LEAVE THAT I JEALOUSLY SALIVATE OVER), but we're just not getting depth with the side couples.

I really would like this show to be edited more crisply, and I wouldn't mind seeing the side couples go -- it'd be nice if this show could ATOTS-itself and just focus on Pat and Jeng. But I'm not going to complain too hard, and listen, Jaab is just beautiful, and I do like his and Jeng's brother dynamic. Whatever. This isn't a big feeling.

Step By Step will be here next week to carry my exhausted soul over the threshold of Our Skyy 2, and I'm happy about it. It's giving me depth and respect for grown-up love, and I love it.
