⋆ Contrary to popular belief, Jordan is both a little spoon and a big spoon.
⋆ When you guys are cuddling, they like to make sure your head is in between their shoulder blade and neck. Having you as close as possible was always a must for Jordan.
⋆ The pair of you like to take naps together in either dorm room, planning on sleeping for only 2 hours but then waking up and realising it's three a.m.
⋆ It's funny actually, you'll miss class and then you're both sweaty from all the maneuvering which means you have to take a shower. And what better way to get cleaned properly than having someone there to make sure you got all the right places.
⋆ Jordan likes to have their hand cradling your neck while they sleep. A lot of time you'll feel their hand brushing along the nape of your neck, drawing circles along the hairline. Sometimes it’s fine unconsciously, others is when they’re anxiety is through the roof and they need some grounding.
⋆ Whenever you’re sleeping, Jordan sometimes lays watch just to study you. They actually can’t believe they’ve met someone as divinely perfect as you and it sometimes makes them second guess themselves.
⋆ Jordan doesn’t snore, but they do this thing where it seems like they’ll stop breathing for a second and it scares the living shit out of you that they have to tell you it’s completely normal and they can’t really do anything about it.
⋆ They have full blown conversations in their sleep! One time, you guys were napping and you thought you were dreaming until you turned around to see Jordan just…talking. Like as if they were awake.
⋆ “You’ve gotta be fucking kidding me.” “It wasn’t supposed to go there and now you’ve gone and fucked it all up!” “You’ve ruined the surprise what if (y/p) doesn’t like it anymore ):” AND YOU’LL SEE THE FROWN TOO RIGHT AFTER THEY SAY THAT.
⋆ Their dreams are very vivid and you’ll catch them reenacting whatever the fuck is going on in their heads. It’s nothing ever traumatic, just sweet wholesome dreams that consist of them always wanting to do something for you.
⋆ “Babe, you were talking in your sleep again.” “I was? Fuck! Did I say anything embarrassing?”
⋆ They’re so clingy!!! You’ll wake up from your over extended nap and find your limbs completely tangled up with Jordan’s. And depending on which form they take during that time, like their male form, you’ll find yourself smothered by their whole body.
⋆ Getting up to pee is a workout. Even though Jordan is much smaller than you in their female form, their strength is an unbeatable match. They’ll have their arm secured tightly around your waist and when you try to move it’s rock solid so you’ll just bounce back with a huff.
⋆ Blanket hogger Jordan Li! My god, trying to share a blanket with them is like participating in a tug of war match. You love sleeping with them, so that’s why you always make sure to have your own blanket when you take your nap sessions.
⋆ Jordan smiles in their sleep, A LOT. Like sometimes you think you’re going crazy, but they be cheesing and you always wonder what’s going on in that pretty head of theirs.
⋆ Jordan likes it when you fall asleep first because they want to make sure you’re safe and sound before drifting off. They’re always on high alert before your nap sessions and they sometimes thinks it’s too much, but you always reassure them that you love it badly.
⋆ So, Jordan talking in their sleep. Let’s get back to that. If it’s not full blown sentences, you’ll catch them just softly saying your name over and over again. Like a mantra.
⋆ You’re in class and Jordan has a day off, you’ll get a string of texts telling you to come back to their room when you’re done with classes because they have something prepared. And you walk into their dorm to see a mountain of clouds (it’s a bunch of blankets) on the ground with a makeshift awning.
⋆ “Surprise!” “What’s all this?” “We’re barricading ourselves in my dorm for the entire weekend and you can’t say no.” “Wasn’t going to anyway, baby.”
⋆ You both wear each others clothes before you take a nap because “it makes you feel closer to one another,” you guys are disgustingly cute.
⋆ Jordan in their female form cuddling you is so adorable!!!!! because she has both arms wrapped around you from the back so even if their arm falls asleep they wouldn’t care. She quite literally disappears when she’s behind you.
⋆ Depending on the length of your hair and texture, Jordan would sometimes play with the strands while you sleep (and if you don’t have any hair at all, they’ll just massage your temples and give you head rubs ): I’m choking).
⋆ Jordan moves a lot in their sleep. When you both started your nap sessions, they were hesitant because they hope that didn’t bother you. After you guys woke up, he asked if it did and you looked at him confused like ??? What the fuck are you talking about?
⋆ “So I didn’t move at all?” “Jordan, what? We were in the same position for 2 hours.” And alarm bells go off in their head like !!!!!!! you’re my cure!!!!
⋆ Since your naps span on for hours, you’ll both wake up thirsty and sweaty, prompting them to dive into their mini fridge to get you both cold water bottles.
⋆ Jordan doesn’t like the pillows you have because they said that it’s not as comfortable as it is laying on you. So when they’re the little spoon and the nap session is happening in your dorm, you are their human body pillow!!!
⋆ And when they’re the big spoon, they just bring their own pillows lol.
⋆ Nap sessions have become tradition with you both since you’re both always so sleepy. Jordan never passes up the opportunity to be able to nap with you, it’s a different level of intimacy that Jordan isn’t used to.
⋆ You make them crave domesticity, so the naps give them a semblance of that. You are their home and they feel comfortable being able to sleep however when it’s with you.

turning pages (for people who don't care)
pairing: Felix Catton/Reader
summary: Felix Catton is well-liked by practically everyone he meets, from teachers to peers and strangers. He catches the gazes of anyone as he enters a space; he’s often the thrumming energy that determines exactly how a night will go. Felix’s name lives everywhere, from the pulsing rhythm of rowdy parties to the quiet whispers across the school courtyard. Anyone who’s anyone knows Felix Catton. As an unassuming student at Oxford with no particular desire for wealth, luxurious parties, or hesitant smiles from across a dimly-lit pub, you’re not sure how to feel about that. However, you soon find your quiet student life thrown into a whirlwind of activity when you have to tutor Felix.
The reader’s pronouns are unspecified, but they are written to wear masculine clothing. (I'm of the opinion that anyone can rock a dress shirt & slacks, but whatever). Otherwise, no physical descriptors are used; the reader's race and gender are ambiguous.
The title of this fic is from Drift Away, the Steven Universe song.
word count: ...7.3k. i don't want to talk about it. 💀
Tumblr media
ao3 version
You enjoy being a tutor at Oxford. It doesn’t pay incredibly well, but the work itself is rewarding enough for you to forgive the meager wages. You genuinely look forward to your sessions, to seeing the bright gleam in a student’s eyes as they begin to understand the material in a way they hadn’t before. You muse on the thought as you walk into the library, heading for your usual table and arranging your materials. Your next session is in a few minutes, so you spend your spare time reviewing your notes from your previous class. 
Someone pointedly clears their throat and you look up, only to find yourself staring at another student. He has messy brown hair, warm brown eyes, and an easy smile on his face. He looks self-assured, yet there’s a slight sense of apprehension veiled in the way he shoves his hands in his pockets. “Hello,” you decide to say. 
“..Hello.” He responds casually. 
There’s an awkward beat of silence. Feeling eyes on you, you glance to the side, only to find a few people staring at you from a few tables away. They must be his friends. You shake your head and pretend not to have noticed, instead turning your attention to your laptop. “You must be… Felix?” You ask. 
“Yes,” Felix responds, amusement glimmering in his eyes as if he expects you to know exactly who he is. 
“Great, have a seat,” you say, not bothering to pay him a second glance. You pull up the email you received from the tutoring center, which shows the coursework he’s bringing in. “You have… a philosophy essay?” Felix nods, taking a seat and going through his backpack. “Awesome. Can you tell me a little about the assignment?”
Within a few minutes, it’s clear that Felix is an extroverted person. Moreover, he seems to be rather popular—several people passing by clap him on the shoulder as they walk past him. Thankfully, the gestures aren’t super distracting. Still, you find yourself a little surprised at the sheer amount of friends this guy appears to have. 
But that’s not important, you scold yourself. You revert your attention to his philosophy essay, which is off to a great start. Admittedly, he has a solid foundation—he just seems to need guidance working with transitioning between ideas. His citations could use some work, too, but you’re quick to refer him to the proper resources. Overall, though, his essay is well-crafted. You tell him as much, and his eyes momentarily widen before he averts his gaze, suddenly appearing flustered. 
You still can’t shake the feeling that you’re being watched, though. It’s not Felix’s friends this time, either. You don’t realize how preoccupied you are with the feeling until Felix draws attention to it. 
“Do you know him?” He asks, just as you’re in the middle of reading a sentence. You pause and look up, following Felix’s gaze to somewhere in the distance. Sure enough, Michael is lurking in the corner of two bookshelves, his eyes nearly burning into you. 
“Yeah, that’s Michael,” At Felix’s inquiring look, you continue. “I’ve seen him around. Talked to him once or twice.” You admit. We’re not really friends gets caught in your throat. Admittedly, Michael creeps you out a little, but you’d never say that out loud. 
Felix raises an eyebrow, twirls his pencil around his finger. He seems to be in his element now, as he sprawls in his chair with all the ease and confidence of someone who has never needed to make an effort for appearances. “He seems to think you’re friends,” Felix remarks lightly. 
“He seems to think a lot of things,” you respond before you can stop yourself. Felix chuckles. “Back to your paper.” You say, returning your attention to your peer’s work. 
The reminder of the tutoring session is rather uneventful. Felix is skilled at writing, and you can’t help but wonder if he’s struggling simply because he isn’t doing the work. You suppose you have no way of knowing for sure. He’s made small comments here and there about his writing and why he’s here today—apparently his parents issued him an ultimatum and pretty much forced him to show up for tutoring. The session goes rather well, though—even despite the fact that he seemed rather uninterested at the beginning. 
“Alright,” you sigh once your time is up, placing a hand over the top of your laptop and shutting it ever so slightly. “Any last questions before we wrap up?” You ask him. Felix blinks for a moment. 
“I don’t think so,” he responds with a shake of his head. He begins to pack up his things, before looking at you once more. There’s a newfound conviction in his frame now. Felix slings his bag over his shoulder, pausing for a moment. “You were super helpful.” He admits, looking away as if the admission is difficult to make. 
“Good!” You say relievedly. You’re always thrilled to hear that your peers feel as if they’ve gotten something from the tutoring. Your own beliefs can only go so far, after all. Just because you perceive a session to be helpful doesn’t mean it’s helpful to the other student. You shake your head to clear your thoughts. “Glad to hear it. Enjoy your day, and best of luck with your classes.” 
Felix returns the sentiment, sending you one last unreadable look before walking over to the group that you had assumed to be his friends. They greet him with enthusiasm, evidently asking him questions about the time he spent working with you. Whatever he responds with must be intriguing, because the group’s gazes pivot back to you once more. You quickly focus on packing your bag, resolutely ignoring the attentive eyes burning into your back as you leave the library. 
Felix slips from your mind rather easily after that day, especially when your course load increases and your work schedule grows a bit more intense. You soon find yourself in a rather stringent routine, in which you go to classes, tutor, go to more classes, eat meals in between, and go to sleep. It’s not ideal, but you enjoy tutoring and your schoolwork enough to push through it. 
You’re walking to one of your classes when you hear someone call your name. At first, you’re convinced you imagined the remark. It isn’t until there’s suddenly an arm slung around your shoulder that you realize you likely heard correctly. The unexpected physical contact prompts you to look to the side, only to find Felix staring at you with a sheepish smile. 
“Hey, there you are,” he remarks. “I’ve been looking for you.” You reflexively stiffen at the thought, but the gesture goes unnoticed. Felix’s grip is relentless, and you soon find yourself being pushed towards the courtyard off the stone path and near a small group of people. These must be Felix’s friends from before. 
“Mates, this is the tutor who saved my ass last week,” Felix tells his friends, his arm still around your shoulder. You resist the compelling urge to shove him away. “Say hello.” He says to his friends, before turning to you again. “I owe you a drink sometime.”
“I’m not much of a drinker,” you say with a shake of your head. You don’t have much time for that with your current schedule. A hangover would be nothing but an inconvenience considering how early you’ve had to wake up the past few days. “But thanks anyway.”
“Ciggie?” He offers, his arm finally falling from your shoulders to pull a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket. You’re suddenly hit with a strange shiver, a phantom sensation of the weight that rested there only a moment prior. You don’t realize that you haven’t answered the question until a few moments later.
“No thanks,” you remember to respond, ignoring his friends’ gazes burning into your skin again. Do they have nothing better to do than tear you apart with their eyes?  “Good to see you.” You’re quick to try to end the conversation, but Felix is quicker. 
“Hey, are you free tonight?” He asks. Somehow, he seems immune to his friends’ stares, as they’re all whispering conspiratorially amongst themselves. You resolutely ignore them and instead contemplate his question. 
“Um.. no,” you say, after taking a moment to recall your schedule. You need to complete some coursework. “Why? Do you have an assignment?” You frown, trying to think back to the classes he said he’s taking. 
“No,” Felix responds with a shake of his head. He gestures to the group. “We were going out to the pub.”
“I have an essay to write,” you remark, trying to sound disappointed. Maybe a small part of you is genuinely saddened at the conflict of plans, but you’re mostly just relieved to have an excuse not to go. You glance over at the clock in the courtyard, heart beginning to race when you notice your next class starts in two minutes. “I have to go to class. See you.” You turn on your heel and walk away, just barely hearing Felix’s goodbye over the nearby conversations. 
“Your tutor’s kind of dodgy, eh, mate?” Farleigh says. 
“No, not at all,” Felix responds with a shake of his head. The expression on his face is thoughtful, and his eyes are fixed on your turned back.
“If you say so,” Farleigh shrugs, taking another drag. 
You hadn’t realized Felix was so popular. Now that you’ve met him, you hear whispers of him all around the school. Everyone seems to have an opinion on him one way or another. You’ve only conversed with him the few times you’ve seen him in tutoring sessions and around campus, but he seems nice enough.
Classes fly by, to your satisfaction. Your last class of the day ends a bit after the regular dinner hour, but you manage to sneak into the dining hall and snag some food before the space closes. After that, you’re content to return to your room. It’s been a long day and you could use some time to yourself to just relax and breathe. 
Unfortunately, your suffering doesn’t end when you reach your residence hall. Instead, the moment you enter, you nearly crash into a woman waiting in front of a door. You manage to sidestep her and head up the stairs leading to the next floor.
“Hey, have you seen Felix?” Her voice echoes in the stairway. You freeze and turn to look down at the woman standing on the landing. She has bright red hair and glittering makeup coating her eyes. You feel your brows climb up your forehead as you realize that the door she’s standing in front of must lead to Felix’s room. You didn’t realize he lived in this building too. 
“They’re all at the pub,” you answer after a few moments, recalling your conversation earlier. “At least, that’s what he said when I spoke to him earlier.” 
She doesn’t seem satisfied with your answer, as she takes a deep breath. “Do you have alcohol?” She then asks. 
“No,” you answer honestly. Felix’s friend stares at you for a moment, before huffing and walking away. You can’t find the energy to dissect that conversation, so you instead focus on unlocking the door to your room. You spend the rest of the night purposefully suppressing any thoughts of Felix and his friends. 
When you wake the next morning, you feel somewhat rejuvenated and well-rested. Your essay is more than halfway done and you still have a few days before the due date. The sun is out and shining, casting a hazy glow over the courtyard that your room looks out on. You take a deep breath, before changing and brushing your teeth. You head to the dining hall for a small breakfast, before moving to the library for your first tutoring session of the day. 
You’re not sure how much time you spend waiting for your peer to show, but you reckon it can’t be that long. It only feels like ten minutes pass before there’s a shadow passing over your vision, indicating that someone is standing over your table. You look up, unable to contain your surprise when you find Felix with a bag slung over his shoulder and a smile on his face. 
“Hi,” you remark. 
“Hey,” he responds, placing his bag on the ground and sitting down. You take the gifted opportunity to review the information given to you for the tutoring session. It appears Felix has another philosophy essay he wants you to look at. That shouldn’t be too bad. You give him a moment to get his things out, before diving right into his writing. 
You’re happy to realize that he has used some of your tips from your first session. You already notice that the flow of his writing has improved, and his use of transition words at the beginning of each paragraph has aided in that regard. He has a few grammar errors—nothing major—and a few small citation mistakes. “Instead of listing all the authors, you can just say ‘Marks et al.’ here,” you point out, gesturing to the sentence that you’re looking at on the screen. Felix nods silently and adjusts the text. 
“I heard you spoke with Annabel the other day,” he remarks, apropos of nothing. You’re abruptly thrown off track as your attention turns from the paper to Felix himself. He repeats his statement. 
“Really?” You ask. Felix nods. “Sure, we spoke for a bit.” You return to reading his essay, confused by the sudden change in subject.
“What did you talk about?” He presses. 
“She asked if I had seen you,” you answer, trying and failing to multitask. You eventually give up on reading for the time being and address his question. “I said no.”
“And?” Felix prompts. 
“And that was it,” you finish. Felix still doesn’t seem convinced for some reason. You rack your brain and try to remember your interaction with the woman. It only happened a few days ago, but you’ve been so busy that it feels like a lifetime ago.  “Oh, she asked me if I had alcohol. I said no. Then that was it.” You must imagine the momentary look of relief on his face. 
“She called you prickly,” Felix continues, a mischievous smile on his face. You’re not sure what there is to smile about. 
“I’m sure,” you respond disinterestedly. You’d like to go back to reading his paper, but he keeps diverting your attention and changing the subject. Before you can even attempt to try reading again, there’s suddenly a hand on the edge of your laptop, pushing your screen down ever so slightly. You look up to find Felix watching you rather closely. 
“Who are you, exactly?” Felix asks. The library around you seems to fall silent with the remark. Your skin prickles. Why is there such an intent look on his face? Surely learning more about you doesn’t matter that much to him. Felix evidently notices you’re speechless and continues. “I don’t know anything about you. I’ve seen you around campus a few times, but that’s it.”
“I’m your tutor,” you respond, after taking a moment to collect your thoughts. Your heart is hammering away in your chest. “You don’t need to know anything about me.”
“What if I want to?”
“You wouldn’t want to,” you reply instinctively, warily. Alarm bells are ringing in your head. You can’t quite imagine a scenario in which Felix Catton, wealthy heir and avid partygoer, would ever benefit from knowing anything about you. Does he even notice how much attention he’s drawing, just sitting here with you right now? Even his friends are confused by his supposed interest in you. “I’m nothing special.” You try to look at his essay once more. 
“That’s not true,” Felix says insistently, getting to his feet and placing his hand on your laptop once more. He’s ripping your eyes away from the screen and towards him. There’s an indignant expression on his face, as if he’s insulted by your claim. You blink up at him in confusion. If everyone in the library wasn’t staring already, then they certainly are now. Felix seems to regain his composure, as he shakes his head and moves to sit down once more. 
There’s a palpable tension lingering in the air throughout the rest of your session. Felix seems anchored to his chair, as if he doesn’t want to leave. Eventually, you’re the one to leave first, as you have class in a few minutes. You can feel his eyes on your back as you walk away, imploring you to explain yourself further. 
You’re not sure what there is to explain. Despite your prior promises not to pay attention to the rumors and whispers of your peers, you can’t help but acknowledge them. You have to wonder if some of it is true—if Felix doesn’t really do friends , if he is only interested in people for whatever they can offer him. Truthfully, Felix isn’t a person you would’ve interacted with. If not for tutoring, you’re sure you would’ve spent your entire time at Oxford knowing absolutely nothing about him and being unable to explain the strange stirring feeling of dislike in your chest. It’s too late now, though. It seems you can’t go back to the way things once were—not when Felix knows who you are now. You just have to hope that maybe, just maybe, he’ll realize that there’s nothing particularly compelling about you. 
For a while, you don’t see Felix Catton and you are fooled into thinking he may have actually lost interest. You feel relieved at the thought. A small, traitorous part of you may long for the company he provides—the soft smiles he sends you, the glitter in his eyes as he speaks to you and only you. It was only for the best that you drifted apart, you think to yourself as you take an armchair in the library. The end of the semester is approaching, and you’ve taken every free moment to study and review course materials. Many other students seem to have the same idea as you, as the library has been a bit busier these past few weeks. 
You barely get to start rereading your notes before a familiar voice is speaking to you. “My parents were impressed.” You look up to find Felix standing over you. It takes you several seconds to process his statement. 
“With what?” You ask. Admittedly, you’re confused as to why he felt the need to approach you right now of all times. You’re sitting alone at a table in the library, and a few students are throwing you dirty looks as Felix continues to speak to you. You want nothing more than to sink into the ground and disappear forever. 
“My philosophy grade, of course,” Felix remarks, taking the chair adjacent to you. You feel like everyone in the library is staring at you. When you look up, you find that a few students actually are—Felix’s friends at another table are among them. Felix seems immune to the attention he provokes. “They really want to meet you.” That surprises you. Why would his parents want to meet you? Because of your tutoring? All these questions must show on your face, because Felix elaborates. “They wanted to thank you.”
That’s surprising. “Are they visiting Oxford soon?” You ask curiously. 
“No,” Felix answers. Your brows furrow and he shakes his head. “I meant this summer. You should join us at Saltburn.” He looks at you expectantly. You don’t have the faintest clue what Saltburn is, but you guess it must be a name for their residence. Judging from what you’ve heard of the Cattons, Saltburn is likely a very large, very extravagant mansion. 
You blink at Felix once, twice. The expression on his face holds nothing but complete sincerity. You feel a laugh crawl out of your throat. It’s only until you see his face fall that you realize he’s not joking. “Oh, you’re serious,” you comprehend aloud. “Yeah, I could stop by.” 
“I’d like you there,” he confesses. You feel your eyes widen as you stare at him in disbelief. “Is that so hard to believe?” Felix asks, looking at you skeptically. 
Yes. Yes, it is. “...No.”
“You don’t sound convinced,” Felix says lightly. It almost looks as if he’s forcing a smile. 
“You’re right,” you acquiesce, “I’m not convinced.” 
Felix huffs in amusement, before pushing himself out of the chair and sending you a wave over his shoulder. You watch him leave, unable to shake the feeling that, somehow, you’re going to be roped into visiting his parents at their residence this summer. 
Two months later, as you find yourself staring up at the splendor of Saltburn, you think you shouldn’t be as surprised as you are. Then again, a summons from James and Elspeth Catton isn’t exactly something you can ignore. You tug your suitcase across the rocky driveway, before arriving at the gargantuan wooden doors at the entrance. For a moment, there’s nothing but silence as you stand there. A few moments later, the doors swing open and you’re greeted by a man in a tuxedo—evidently a butler of some sort. He takes you into a beautifully ornate room with sunlight streaming in past ornate golden curtains. Thankfully, you’re not left to your own devices for long, as you hear footsteps echoing through the space. 
Felix walks through the doorway, his expression brightening when he sees you. “I’m glad you’re here,” he says. The sincerity of his statement catches you off guard. Felix takes a step closer to break the distance between you and slings an arm around your shoulders, leading you past the butler and towards the edge of the room. You’re hit with whiplash—both because of the surprisingly heartfelt remark and the rapidity of Felix’s actions. Felix proceeds to take you on an informal tour of the residence, before leading you through his bedroom and the adjacent bathroom to your room. 
“Hope you don’t mind sharing a bathroom,” he remarks offhandedly, leading you into the space that will be your bedroom. You assure him that you don’t mind and he grins, gesturing at your new room with a flourish. “Here’s your room. I’ll leave you to it.” He freezes in the doorway, pressing a hand to the doorframe and turning around for a brief moment. “We’ll be in the sitting room,” Felix adds, before turning back around and walking away. 
You stare at the empty doorway for an immeasurable amount of time, before letting your gaze wander across the room. The room is quite gorgeous, with an elegant four poster bed and detailed paintings adorning the walls. The door leads to the bathroom, which then connects to Felix’s bedroom. You’re grateful that he placed you near him—you’re not sure you’d be comfortable inhabiting a room on the other side of the house, with no one around to guide you. You place your luggage off to the side—after telling the butler that you could carry it on your own—and take a deep breath. Truthfully, you’re not really sure why you’re here. You’re only going to humiliate yourself here. You don’t belong here. Why did you even entertain the thought? 
You try to come up with an answer as you pace around the room, before finally deciding that there isn’t a clear-cut answer. You glance over at the clock in the corner, eyes widening when you realize that you spent at least twenty minutes just standing in the room and thinking. You take a few cautious steps into the bathroom, walk through Felix’s bedroom, and go down the hall Felix pointed out earlier. You quickly realize that you’re going in the wrong direction and backpedal, only to find a door left nearly closed, with a small crack letting the sound of conversation slip into the hall. This must be the sitting room. 
You take a deep breath, steel your nerves, and knock on the door. Someone remarks that you can enter and you do so, pushing the door open more and stepping into the sitting room. The television is playing, but everyone’s eyes seem to be on you. Felix is sitting in the corner and his friend—Farleigh?—is sitting near the back of the room. You don’t get much time to take in your surroundings, as you’re quickly accosted by who you can only assume to be Felix’s father. 
“Ah, you must be the tutor,” he remarks, getting up from his seat. “So wonderful to meet you. I’m James, and this is my wife, Elspeth.” You shake his proffered hand, before lingering awkwardly in the center of the room. Thankfully, Elspeth gets up to greet you, saving you from further embarrassment. 
“I suppose you’re the one we owe for our son’s wonderful grades this term!” Elspeth remarks, bringing you in for a hug. Felix huffs and mutters something about not needing the help. You feel somewhat inclined to defend him, for reasons you can’t quite explain. 
“Don’t give me too much credit,” you smile. “Felix is a great writer.” 
Felix mutters something again, too quiet for you to hear. His mother turns to him and asks him to repeat himself. He averts his eyes and you swear you see him flush for a split second. “Not as great as you.” 
“Well, aren’t you the flatterer,” Elspeth says, waving a casual hand at her son. Her gaze then turns back to you. “And you. So humble! I can see why Felix talks about you so much.” Felix freezes like a deer in headlights, before quickly leaving the room, murmuring about talkative mothers. You stare after him helplessly. There goes the only person that finds you even mildly tolerable. 
“We are very thankful for your help, truly,” James says, crossing his leg over his knee. “Felix has always been a good student, but this term, he… he’s been different. We’re glad that he’s gotten his affairs back in order. With your assistance, of course! You must show me your writing sometime.”
“Thank you,” you respond sincerely. “I’d love to. And thank you so much for inviting me into your home.”
“So polite!” Elspeth remarks, shooting a dirty look at the other woman in the room. You quickly pretend you didn’t notice that. “Of course, darling.”  
You’re left to sit awkwardly in the sitting room for a few moments. Felix’s parents ask you a few questions, but eventually their attention falls back to the program they’re watching. A shadow at the door draws your eye and you see Felix motioning for you to follow after him. You glance at his parents, who both motion for you to join their son. You get to your feet and walk out of the room, ignoring the sensation of a pressured gaze boring holes into your back. 
“Sorry about that,” Felix apologizes, once the two of you are turning the corner and walking down the hall. 
“About what?” You ask, glancing at him. “Your parents seem nice.” 
Felix just sighs and shakes his head. You don’t think you can even begin to truly comprehend the emotions behind that simple gesture, so you decide to simply succumb to the silence that spreads across the air. 
You spend the rest of the afternoon reading one of the books in the library. You don’t realize that it’s time for dinner until Felix is entering the space and practically dragging you along behind him to the dining room. 
“I hear your birthday is coming up,” Felix’s father, James, remarks at some point throughout the meal. You look up from where you’d been absently poking at your food. There’s an expectant look on his face. You have to wonder how he knows when your birthday is. You don’t remember telling anyone about it—except for Felix, perhaps.  “Yes, it is,” you agree.
“Have any grand plans?” Elspeth suggests. Her eyes quickly light up. You’re suddenly filled with trepidation. “Oh, we should have a birthday party! We could invite all your friends!” You freeze on instinct. You’re not the biggest fan of parties, and you know you definitely don’t have enough friends at Oxford to fill a place as big as Saltburn for a party. Felix’s mother glances at you expectantly, immune to your internal crisis. 
You’re saved from responding by Felix’s remark. “You’re not really a party person, are you?” He asks. His parents’ gazes focus on you and you nearly sag in relief, feeling the tension seep from your shoulders. 
“Oh, nonsense,” Elspeth remarks. Shit, you think. “Everyone loves parties! We’ll have to make it themed…” You resist a groan. It’s too late. Felix’s mother and father are already chattering about the details of the party, the number of people they’ll invite… You don’t want to appear ungrateful, so you stifle your objections and spend the rest of the meal staring at the wall ahead. 
When dinner is finished, Felix is the first one to depart. He stares at you pointedly and gestures wordlessly to the exit. You get the idea and practically jump from your seat, grateful for an excuse to leave. You walk behind Felix, pretending not to notice how broad his shoulders are. “Sorry about that,” Felix grimaces, his back turned as he continues walking, “My mother has a bit of a one track mind, sometimes.” 
“It’s fine,” you remark. You can survive one party. Besides, it may actually be enjoyable. You tell him as much and he seems to brighten up at that. That night, you recline on your mattress with thoughts flooding your mind, leaving you awake for longer than you’d like. Eventually, the curtain falls and your vision fades to black. 
When you open your eyes, you find yourself standing on the balcony of the mansion, overlooking the yard. There are clothes and discarded drinks littering the previously spotless grass. What disturbs you most of all, however, is the franticness with which everyone seems to be conducting themselves. You stare out at the wreckage that must’ve come from the party and take a deep breath. 
“What happened?” You ask Farleigh after walking down the steps. The expression on his face is grave and panicked at the same time. He’s wading through the pond and soaking his clothes, but he hardly seems to notice. 
“We can’t find Felix,” he responds, his eyes flitting about the area. There’s a horrible tugging feeling in your stomach as you realize that Farleigh’s looking for Felix in the water. Did something happen to him? You swallow hard and walk around the grounds, trying to comprehend how Felix could have gone missing in such a short time. 
Out of nowhere, Venetia screams. Feeling a shiver roll down your spine, you race over in the direction of the voice, only to find yourself running through the overgrown walls of the maze. You see Venetia’s blond hair and you quickly run over to her, only to freeze when you see what she screamed about. Felix is lying motionless in the center of the maze. You feel an itching feeling in the back of your throat, a burning sensation behind your eyes. Farleigh arrives and gasps; Venetia starts crying. You don’t know what to do, as you stand helplessly before your peer, your friend. James arrives and takes a shuddering breath, eyes glassy as he stares at the corpse of his son. For a long moment, nothing can be heard except for Farleigh and Venetia’s sobs and your ragged breathing. 
“We need to move him,” James announces. You stare at him in disbelief. How is he even functioning right now? He sounds eerily calm despite the gravity of the situation. 
Apparently, you don’t react fast enough, because James’s hands are soon on your shoulders and he’s shoving you towards the body. You just barely catch yourself from falling over. The patriarch grabs Felix’s shoulders and prompts for you to grab his ankles. You’re shaking. You can’t move. Tears sliding down your face, you reach down to touch the corpse—only to recoil at how cold the skin is. Suddenly, there’s a harsh sound and Felix’s body is sinking beneath the earth, engulfed by soil and pebbles—
You gasp and open your eyes, only to find yourself in your room once more. You try to breathe, but the effort burns. Sweat coats your skin and your limbs are shaky. With trembling hands, you reach out to the nightstand and take a few sips of water, before wiping the sweat from your brows. The sheets on the bed are a mess—you must’ve been tossing and turning. Your breaths are still laborious, and your chest is beginning to ache. You mechanically get out of bed and make your way to the bathroom, standing in front of the sink. Your reflection in the mirror is grim—dark circles under your eyes and a firm pull to your lips. You reach down and turn on the water, letting the freezing temperature ground you in reality. Eventually, you reach down and douse your face with cold water. 
Once you’re finished, you grab a towel and dry off your face. “Hey, are you okay?” You nearly jump out of your body at the sudden voice. You wipe any remaining water droplets away, recognizing the voice as Felix’s. “I heard a scream.” 
“Sorry, didn’t mean to wake you up,” you mumble, rubbing a hand over your face. The water helped, but you still feel jittery and unsettled. You grasp at the edges of the sink and resolutely look down at the counter. 
“Are you okay?” Felix asks again. You finally turn around, only for your mouth to go dry as your gaze settles on your friend. Felix is standing in the doorway, healthy and happy and alive. It’s such a harsh contrast from the Felix you had seen in your dreams—a pale, frozen shell of himself. Before you can recognize what you’re doing, you’re surging forward to wrap your arms around Felix. To his credit, he doesn’t flinch or push you away—instead, he pulls you close with a hand on the nape of your neck. You feel self conscious for getting so worked up about a dream, but it just felt so real. You could feel the weight of his dead body in your hands. 
“Did you have a nightmare or something?” Felix whispers after a few moments. You nod quietly, not trusting yourself to speak. “I’m sorry.” He’s the one apologizing, after you made too much noise and woke him in the middle of the night with your terror. You just shake your head wordlessly.
You’re not sure how much time you spend standing there, Felix’s arms enveloping you. Eventually, the edges of the nightmare begin to fade away and your friend’s presence is undeniable. Felix is safe, you tell yourself. He is fine. 
Breaking away from him feels far more difficult than it should be. You immediately miss his warmth, miss the feeling of being shielded from harm. Felix’s arms fall to his sides, before he braces them on the bathroom counter. Taken in by the inexplicable urge to touch him, you place a hand over his and pretend not to hear his startled inhale of breath. 
“Thank you,” you murmur. 
“Of course,” Felix responds, a note of something imperceptible in his voice. You smile and briefly squeeze his hand, before letting your grip fall away. You wish him good night and head back to your room, pushing aside any lingering convictions that he’s watching your every step. It is much easier to fall asleep once you remember that Felix is but a few steps away, alive and well. 
When you wake up hours later, you’re relieved to realize that you feel far better than you did earlier. You didn’t seem to have another nightmare, thankfully. You prepare for the day and change into some casual clothes, before remembering that the party is today. You try to sneak through Felix’s room, only to find that he’s already awake. After he’s ready, the two of you head down to breakfast together. The meal is incredible, as usual.
After breakfast, you return to your room to find clothes on the bed. They’re clearly not yours—the fabric is incredibly luxurious and looks quite expensive. You glance around the room, but there’s no sign of the person who left this attire for you. Upon closer examination, you realize that it’s your exact sizing. You wonder if Felix’s parents got your sizes from the butler and ordered you something. That would certainly be very nice of them. 
Secretly, you’re thankful someone had the forethought to provide you clothes. You probably would’ve stuck out like a sore thumb if you had worn any of the clothing you brought from home. After all, you don’t really belong here. You’re just a temporary guest. 
With those thoughts in mind, you decide to unfold the clothes—revealing an elegant dress shirt and fine-pressed pants. The shirt is a fabric you’re unfamiliar with, and it shimmers as it catches the light. The color is quite beautiful—a cross between deep green and dark blue. Whoever purchased this outfit has good taste (or a lot of money to burn, or both). You’re almost too scared to put the outfit on, for fear of ruining the expensive fabric. Eventually, you manage to convince yourself to change clothes. As you turn to look at yourself in the mirror, you realize you barely look like yourself. That may be an exaggeration, but you still feel as if you look like an entirely different person—one who fits in here. You’re not sure how to feel about that. You had maintained that you wouldn’t change yourself to fit in at Saltburn, yet here you are—dressed as if these parties are a common occurrence for you. You take a deep breath and leave your room, deciding to walk around to get rid of some of your nerves. You eventually get roped into helping Venetia choose an outfit to wear, which kills some time. 
Before long, the sun is setting in the sky and the party is beginning. You have no idea where to go or what to do—you hardly know anyone here. You haven’t caught so much of a glimpse of Felix, Farleigh, or Venetia since the party started. You do manage to find Felix’s parents, and thank them profusely for the party. It’s probably not that big of a deal to them, but you still feel that expressing your gratitude is somewhat necessary. 
After that, you eventually manage to find yourself standing in one of the corners of the sprawling maze outside. You feel somewhat fatigued from the minimal social interaction you’ve had thus far, and you figure your absence won’t be a huge deal breaker for any of the other partygoers. They’re not here for you—they’re here for a party. The party just happens to coincide with your birthday. You’re not naive enough to think otherwise. 
“Enjoying the party?” A familiar voice cuts through the night air. You turn around, only to find Felix standing at the edge of the maze. He takes a few steps to break the distance between you. You cross your arms over your chest and try to hide how self-conscious you feel.
“Yeah, thanks,” you remark after a moment. “You?”
Felix just nods silently. He’s staring at you intently, his gaze flitting up and down your form. “You look nice.” He says after a moment of silence. His gaze is intense and you feel flames prickling up your skin. 
“Thanks,” you respond. You decide to mimic his scrutinizing gaze. “You too.” Not like that’s anything new, you think to yourself. Felix always looks nice. You’re given a reprieve from questioning that thought by Felix’s next remark. 
“Happy birthday,” he says.
“Thank you.” You manage to say moments later, once your tongue no longer feels ironed to the roof of your mouth. 
“I’m happy you’re here,” Felix murmurs, almost too quietly for you to hear. The night air seems to still around you.
“Me too,” you eventually admit. “It’s been… fun.” You’ve enjoyed this summer, enjoyed the time you’ve gotten to spend with Felix. You never would’ve expected yourself to enjoy spending time in a place like Saltburn, yet here you are. 
“I don’t want you to leave,” Felix admits. He’s looking up to the midnight sky as if it holds all the answers. The black wings on his back seem to gleam in the moonlight. He looks like a fallen angel. 
“Why?” You ask. 
Felix is staring at you as if the answer to that question is extremely obvious. He then rubs a hand over his face, before turning to face the statue in the courtyard. The wings extending from his turned back create a harsh silhouette on the grass. “Why do you think I brought you here?” He suggests. 
“Your parents wanted me here,” you recount. 
“No,” Felix sighs, “Yes, but… no. That’s not the main reason.” You wait for him to continue. Somehow, this admission seems to be torturing him. He keeps pacing around restlessly, as if unable to keep still. Eventually, he shakes his head and comes to a stop, meeting your eyes. 
“I wanted to get to know you better,” Felix admits. “I hoped that, once I got to know you, everything else would go away.” Everything else?  He continues, immune to your confusion and wariness. “It didn’t. You came here, and now, the more I get to know you, the more I want to be around you.”
“Why?” You feel yourself blurting out. The words are spilling from your lips uncontrollably. “I’m just a normal student, an average person.”
“You’re far from it,” Felix argues. “And you should know that by now. You have to know by now.” 
“Know…  what?” You dare to say. 
Felix puts a hand over his face, evidently trying to gather his thoughts. You keep silent, despite your heart drumming quickly in your chest.  “I have feelings for you,” he says. “Nearly this entire time, I’ve had feelings for you. All throughout this summer.” 
Felix has feelings for you? Surely that can’t be the case. Hell, he could have anyone he wanted. He’s almost constantly showered in attention and praise. Why would he want to be with you of all people? You have virtually nothing to offer him that could be useful: you’re not wealthy, nor are you a regular partygoer with a penchant for trouble. You’re just… you. 
“You’re the only person that has ever bothered to try to get to know me for me,” Felix explains, as if sensing your self-deprecating thoughts. “Not as the eldest son of the Cattons. Just as Felix.” 
“You don’t buy into any of this bullshit,” he continues, his eyes wandering across the walls of the maze. You immediately know he’s referring to the splendor of Saltburn, the unspoken expectations that nearly suffocate the air around you. Felix inhales slowly. “Not to mention, you’re wicked smart. Compassionate. Attractive.”
He’s taking a step towards you. Then another. You don’t stop him, and he pauses in front of you. You don’t think you’ve seen his eyes sparkle like this before. 
“Can I kiss you?” Felix asks, his hand slowly rising to break the air between you and fall to cradle your jaw. 
You nod wordlessly. For an awkward moment, neither of you move. Felix looks uncharacteristically hesitant. You huff a laugh and break the distance between you, putting your lips to his. 
In a few moments, Farleigh and Venetia will come across the both of you and you will each be teased relentlessly for the rest of the night. Felix’s parents will exchange knowing looks when Felix and you walk into breakfast the next morning hand in hand. And Duncan, the butler, will have a wry curve to his lips—an almost indistinguishable smile—to show his hard-won approval. For now, though, you are left to embrace Felix under the shimmering moonlight, surrounded by a labyrinth of hedges and gilded mansion walls that no longer look nearly as intimidating as they once did.
Tumblr media
whewww! i really got carried away there, didn't i? i just adore the idea of Felix being bewildered by someone not falling head over heels for him. like, the irony of him catching feelings for the *one* person who doesn't actually seem to like him... it's just too good.
i *could* write a farleigh/reader fic... so lmk if that's something y'all would want to see. no promises, though. (if i were able to write it, it would probably be much shorter than this fic, bc this one absolutely ran away from me).
anyway, hope you enjoyed this! thanks for reading! <3

Yo yo sorry if this ask is odd I have experienced hell in the past few days as per the monthly schedule and since I'm fixated upon your vampire AU I was wondering if you'd be cool with me sending in an ask about what it'd be like to deal with having a period when surrounded by vampires.
(gonna refer to the reader as 'the resident human' using they/them pronouns sorry if it gets a bit muddled idk how to word this ask haha)
Content warning: I'm gonna mention periods / shark week / the blood moon / womb blender hours / scheduled monthly hell, etc.
From 1-10 how would you rate how sucky it'd be to have a period in a house full of vampires? Like, on one hand, some of them are probably either avoiding (Riddle) or even stalking (Rook perhaps) their resident human...
But on the other hand, if the human in cramp hell - I'm under the impression that the vampire bites could potentially counteract that to some degree right? Like they'd get rid of some of the pain (rip my anemic ass tho lmao)
Also there's the fact that Lilia's been around long enough to know what's going on and, as per the vampire sense of smell and whatnot, I'd like to imagine he knows before it starts and necessary supplies just sorta show up wherever the resident human will find them when they need them. Plus he's making sure they eat plenty of spinach or similar foods they might need and whatnot.
Uhhh I can't think of anything else lol. Sorry if this was an odd ask, it's kinda been on my mind a while so I figured I might as well share my thoughts. Have a nice day and stay hydrated ( ・⁠∀⁠・⁠) 👍
Lmao you’re all good, I’ve actually answered a couple of asks about periods before: x x
tw: periods, slightly gross (??)
I would say though, because period blood isn’t the same as regular blood, it’s not going to make them act so differently like they would if you had a wound. However, it’s kinda similar so (this might be gross) but I feel like vampires might like the smell of the pheromones cause heightened sense of smell. In that sense, it’s more like a perfume than a food, yk?
Some more shy would definitely blush and avoid MC during this time (Riddle like you mentioned, Adeuce, Jack, Epel, Idia, Sebek).
The more bold vampires would probably act more clingy than usual (Leona, Floyd, Rook) - They are also volunteering their bite to help you out. Despite their unashamed behaviour, they will make sure to keep you comfortable and not take too much blood.
The rest are pretty normal I think, they can control themselves and have the decency to ignore it.
Lilia’s dad energy comes out. You ask him to buy you pads one time and suddenly there’s an entire closet full of a million different supplies, literally anything you could need. Him and the others would be pretty sympathetic to your plights and would be happy to take care of anything you need.
Also you don’t need to track your cycle, Lilia would just be like, hey btw you’re menstruating next week. He knows before you do lol.
So if 1 is hell and 10 is a normal day, I feel like it’s a solid 7/10 at least. You might have to deal with some clingy and awkward guys, but even someone like Leona would take care of you, even if he grumbled while doing it lol.

Literally Liberos would make the best partners, hype beast extraordinaries
Anyways, you and Toshiro have been married for almost a year now
You wanted to surprise your husband with the something you’d knew he’d love
🙌🏻 pictures of you 🙌🏻
See you casually replaced photos around your home with new sexy ones 🤪
You weren’t entirely sure your husband would notice
But like a dog smells good, your husband sniffed them out immediately
He walked in, stopped and looked at you
“Something’s different,” he said 🤨
You 👉🏻😙 🎶
Then he spots the first one, the one you replaced your wedding photo with
He walks over to it, picks it up and his eyes widen 😳
“YN what is this?” He asks
You just shrug and smirk 😏
He continues to walk around, finding all the photos and you start to hear groans emerging from your husband
“You good babe?” You ask as he turns to you
“You know we are never changing these photos back right?” He says as you giggle
“What about when the guys come over?” You question
“Ok maybe then but he do you maybe think you could recreate some of these for me? Perhaps for my digital gallery?” He questions
You giggle and shake your head, “well it’s a good thing I order digital prints too.”
Toshiro throws his head back, groaning and thanking whatever god gifted him such a beautiful wife!
Kageyama
The only two things Kags thinks about is volleyball and his gorgeous wife
Literally the fact that you can put up with him being the way he is
He is so blessed to have you as his spouse!

So you often have to find creative and new ways to entice your husband to come home
Sometimes food works

Nudes 🙌🏻

Ushijima
Our stoic angel 😍
Oh how this giant bby adores you Yn!
Literally there’s nothing better than spending time with your husband
But oh do you LOVE to tease this man something fierce
Please he gets so flustered and blushes whenever you send him a risky picture
So you decide you haven’t tortured your husband enough for an entire lifetime so why not do the absolute most 💅
It was your 1 year wedding anniversary and you decided that you should gift your husband the first the keeps on giving
Pictures of you 😌
You wrap the photo album up and set it with his other gifts
This man always outdoes you in every way but this year, this time you will dominate!
So after opening all of your lavished gifts you finally gift Toshi the one thing nobody else can give him
When he opens it, he looks at the beautiful black valet cover inscribed with his name
He looks at you confused as you continue to urge him on
He opens the first page and immediately slams the book shut
His face turns best red as he avoids all eye contact with you
Toshi 👉🏻👀😳
You 👉🏻😏😏
He opens it again, gulping as he carefully thumbs through every single page, careful to not bend any pictures
It’s not until he gets to the picture of you in his Olympic jersey that he groans, adjusting himself as you continue to look smug
He closes the book, placing both hands on top of it and then looks at you
You 👉🏻 : D
“YN you know how much I love you right?” He says as you nodd
You 👉🏻 : D
“YN I’m going to say this and I mean it in the absolute most respectful way,” he continues
You 👉🏻: D
“I’m about about 2 seconds from breaking your back,” he finally says
You 👉🏻 : D 😐😳
And that, YN, was the story of how you spent an entire week recovering 😌
Hoshiumi
This man BEGS for nudes constantly
Literally he adores you and he keeps a running tab of your pictures
He even keeps a ✨tasteful✨ shot of you as his phones Lock Screen
But nobody can see it… he guards it with his life!!
When Korai’s away, he is always asking to see his pretty baby 🥹
Honestly he’ll take any photos of you
So you decide it’s time to ramp it up 👏🏻
Korai is at a few away games when you decide to make your move
You had some sexy photos done for your adoring husband and lucky you are just as cheeky as he is 😏
You send the first text, baiting him
You: Morning babe *sends picture*
Korai responds in .02 seconds
Korai: 👁️👄👁️
You: how are you? *sends pic*
Korai: 🥵 extremely frazzled right now…
You: oh really? *sends pic*
Korai: BABE IM IN A TEAM MEETING AND I JUST GOT IN TROUBLE FOR CHECKING MY PHONE
You: sounds like a you problem *sends pic*
Only Korai doesn’t respond after that one, instead you start a timer
Because you know your husband too well
10 minutes later, a new record 💅, your FaceTime is ringing as you casually answer it while cooking
“Hey babe! I thought you had a meeting?” You ask casually
Korai 👉🏻 >: ( you did this on purpose
“Did what?” You respond cluelessly
“Did you get those professionally done for me?” He asks
“Well your always asking for pics so I figured I should have a couple hundred built up,” you shrug
Korai 👉🏻👁️👄👁️ 100?!?!
Please Yn that man has never been happier to get home to you
Romero
This man ugh THIS MAN 🥵
Literally idk who’s the luckiest one in this relationship babe I’m sorry
It’s Romero, like look at the man!
But no matter what, you managed to get a good one
He’s an amazing husband and he absolutely worships you!
Literally he will open every door, present you to everyone like you are royalty
He talks about you like you are only woman in the entire word
He wears his wedding ring proudly!
And boy does he adore your body
Literally you could be wearing seat pants and he’s panting 😮‍💨
It’s your two year anniversary and your friend suggest you add some new “artwork” to your bedroom 😌
Mainly in the form of a giant photo of you over your bed
So you prepare, using your husbands favorite color lingerie in the photo in the sexiest pose allowed to be viewed
You manage to get it hung and boy are you excited, so excited that you ambush your husband the moment he walks in the door
You cover his eyes and say, “I have the biggest surprise babe!”
He smiles, “oh do you now?”
You giggle as you lead your 6’3” husband to your room and situate him just perfectly
You tear your hands away and shout “surprise!”
Romero 👉🏻😐😳
“What do you think?!?” You say, presenting your body
Please YN give your husband a second
His mouth has now fallen open and you are gonna need a mop in the bedroom ok 🤚🏻
“Holy shit baby!! You look fucking incredible!” He says getting on the bed and studying the photo up close
“You love it??” You gush
“Oh course! But I wish you would have put one in every room so I can just stare at you all damn day!” He chuckles
“Well lucky for you I got more!” You say, pulling out the other canvases
Please YN, you might need to inform the Adlers of your husbands sudden death 😅
Sokolov
6’7” simp? 6’7” simp 😌
Man’s literally worships the ground you walk on Yn
He adores you more than anything!
Another member of the “I wear my wedding ring and I’m proud club!”
He would wear a shirt that said “my wife is hotter than your wife”
Needless to say, this man will do anything for you YN
And since he travels so much, you have to keep things spicy right 😏
Which is why you decide that it’s important for you to show him exactly how much you miss him
So you decide to be a little butthole and send him cryptic messages all day to prepare him
Like first you send him an email that says, “I’m in your room at 9pm for a surprise ;)”
Of course the man’s is super curious like “👀 what does this chick have planned now?!?”
Then you continue the torment and send him little texts all day like “5 hours until your surprise!”
By 9pm the man is RUNNING 🏃‍♂️ to his hotel room
The team wanted to go out for drinks and suddenly your man’s has a migraine
Back in his hotel room, he texts you and says “ok babe I’m here!”
That’s when you drop that man an entire years work of spank bank material!
Like 200 pictures and that’s not even all of them!
At first he just stares like “holy crap! I shouldn’t be looking at these, I have a wife… WAIT THIS IS MY WIFE!!”
So instead he decides to pull out his computer and FaceTime you
You answer, casually sitting on your bed like “oh hello my love ✌🏻”
“Babe!! Holy crap!! You- you did this for me?!?” He shouts
You giggle and nod saying “I missed you Tatsu” 🥺
Damn Yn calm down, man’s is about .02 seconds away from getting on a plan back to you
“Baby I love them!! But umm now I’ve kind of got a little problem!” He blushes as you giggle
He knows he’s one lucky guy!
Hirugami
Ughhhhhh 😩😩😩 this man!! THIS MAN 👏🏻
He’s so hot it’s unreal!!!
And you get to be his wife?!? Dammnnn
Seriously he is such an attentive and sexy husband
Literally he walks around without his shirt on around the house and man 😮‍💨
Please YN clean your puddle of drool up!
Oh wait that’s me NE WAYS
he absolutely adores you and always talks about you
He knows how lucky he is to have the most supportive and fantastic wife
But that doesn’t mean you don’t get to tease him every once and a while 🤭
Specifically during practice
Because as the captain of the Adlers, he must remain stoic and attentive
So when he’s in the middle of a team meeting and his phone starts buzzing, he quickly checks it
And BAM NUDE
Fukuro rn 👉🏻😐😳
“Hey captain you good?” The guys ask as he snaps from his haze and shoves his phone back in his pocket
Unfortunately his phone keeps buzzing 😌
He’s already seen a few pictures and damn he wants to see more but he knows he won’t be able to contain his arousal
After the meeting, which he clumsily finishes he runs to the locker room and face times you
You answer, casually doing dishes like 😚 🎶
“Baby what was that??” He yells
You 👉🏻👀🤷🏻‍♀️ what-
“Baby those pictures! Those pictures!!! Are they new? Holy shit!” He whisper shouts as you smirk
“They might be new, maybe part of a photo shoot I did,” you answer coyly
Fukuro 👉🏻😳 so there’s more?
“A few hundred more,” you 😏
“Baby prepare yourself because when I get home, you’re all mine!” He growls before hanging up
You just giggle because wait until he sees the giant canvas of you naked hanging in your master bathroom 🙃

One day, certain key figures (like Kirby!) mysteriously disappeared, and a doomer concerned with continuity needed to find people to act as replacements until the originals could be found. Characters from all sorts of different universes were plucked and thrown into this shared universe… Kirby’s response to being thrown into a completely new environment was naturally to make a blog. For finding friends, of course.
This blog features 5 artists who all have separate sets of headcanons and lore, so having a multiverse allows our differing interpretations of characters to co-exist.

INSANE THEORY TIME BUT HERE IS HOW FRAU EVA CAN STILL WIN EVEN IF DEMIAN TURNS OUT TO BE "IORI'S SON"
I will be copying what I said to my friend in our dms immediately after waking up. Ok. I just had an epiphany.
Another friend of mine and I had been conversing regarding Demian possibly being a nonhuman entity in canon, based on these three points that could make it work if he truly does happen to be nonhuman:
Shapeshifting
Illusions
Possession
Now! Possession! That's the little prince's whole thing in lcorp! And looking at the patterns, one can assume his body could be a vessel of some sort, looking at these three primary details:
Once again, the little prince's ability of possession and brain takeover
[Gestures to his whole... everything]
The Little Prince died to be able to return to his home, freeing his soul from its physical vessel
Now, how does this tie back to Iori?
This came to me sporadically as I was just... letting thoughts hit the wall to see what sticks, and then I realized that to possess someone, you need to find a body first. There are loads of patterns pointing to Iori and Demian having some form of relation to one another, but I think that relation is only physical. I think that if Demian really is a nonhuman deity, he is possessing Iori's dead son. This means that he is not directly related to her, but rather, only the body is.
And not to mention, Demian very clearly has some abnormality thing going on, considering how his attack makes a near identical sound to Blue Star.
Stars!
Frau Eva is constantly referred to as a star in the novel.
Demian has an obsession with stars.
The little prince has a love for stars!
So, Demian being Iori's son doesn't mean he can't be Frau Eva's son.
Maybe Iori is the mother of his vessel.
But he, as a lone person, is related to Frau Eva herself, or themself, or maybe even itself if Eva happens to not be human.
Because even if Dante had been talking about Eva at the start when Iori's guys were after them, they never referred to Eva by pronouns, and they talked about her as if she were something solid, unmoving. Maybe dead! But, maybe not. Something about not wanting to tell Iori's guys "■■■'s location".
Please be Frau Eva.

More of my TMA Somewhere Else is Dredge AU. Mostly just random stuff that isn’t enough to make a whole post all on its own. There’s no order to these btw it’s literally just whatever came to mind. (Also Jon uses any/all pronouns because I like projecting)
- Jon takes statements from people in the Dredgeverse. Back before she accepted the Greater Marrow angler job offer these were always encounters with the fears as they slowly sank their teeth into this new world, but once she moved she found that encounters with the fears were much, much rarer. Statements about the sea are still filling, however. Plenty of terror and new information to be found there.
- Jon really likes chatting with the traveling merchant. She’s seen a lot, so it’s a good way for him to learn about this world. He doesn’t want to take a statement from her (he’s sure she has many, but she might be the closest thing he has to a friend here (he doesn’t even know her name) and it would be a massive pain to constantly be going back and fourth between Greater Marrow and the other four regions). Her stories usually just contain enough scraps of information (and sometimes fear) that they can serve as a very light snack.
- Sometimes aberrations are the only things they catch in a day. Sometimes Jon will see dark shapes in the water, to big and malformed to be any of the regular fish native to the area. Sometimes they are out on the water, alone, and something is watching them. He Knows it is not Beholding.
- Jon thinks that the Eye would tell them the quickest route back to where they came from, would tell them exactly how to navigate to avoid monsters and dangerous storms. They know they could leave but they don't think they will. They need to stay. They need to know.
- Jon spends AGES trying to figure out what’s so special about the dark stone pillars. When she realizes that they grant her visions (but only if she’s frightened enough) she decides to visit all of them (at night, when the fog is thick and the fear is strongest).
- After getting a camera from the photographer, Jon tries to get pictures of the monsters. She nearly gets her boat sunk about a hundred times in the process, but finds that the benefits of being able to study them from multiple angles for as long as she wants outweighs the terror and cost of repairs.
- Got a LOT of thoughts about how the collector could play into this tbh. I don’t want to get into specifics for spoiler reasons but I can give some general thoughts:
Dude's just some guy who wanted cursed relics. Met Jon and instantly went: "They look like a magnet for The Horrors" and decided to hire them on the spot.
Dude is Elias. I feel like Elias wouldn't have too much trouble fitting into the role, and I like him well enough to actually want to include him in this au. That being said, I don't know if my grasp of the character is solid enough for me to explore the idea, and I like the idea of Jon, whose only remaining connection is the eldritch fear god they serve, having nobody and nothing in the already lonely and isolating world of Dredge.
It's Dredgeverse Jon. The collector is the Jon who was born here, and whose fascination with the sea and the supernatural drew them to this place, where they're sure all the answers they seek lie waiting, just below the surface of the water. Raises all sorts of questions I don't have answers to about who else has versions of themselves living in the Dredgeverse (if any at all) but also fascinates me.
The collector is any/all of these but also a mouthpiece for the entity that lurks in these waters (whether he knows it or not). I think dipping into these ideas any further would cross into spoiler territory, and while I think knowing the full story can really enhance the experience, I also think it's best played blind the first time. If you have the money to drop on it please do check it out, I promise it's so worth it.
Okay these are all my thoughts (for now). I'm sure I'll have more soon. Jon and Dredge both occupy massive portions of my brain all the time. However for now I need to try and get trophies for every regular fish (and possibly also the abberations, might be fun trying to spend a full in-game year just fishing).

JJK Characters with a Venti!reader
Tumblr media
Characters: Itadori Yuji, Fushiguro Megumi, Kugisaki Nobara, Gojo Satoru Genre: FLuff, Crack, Can be read as romantic or platonic (completely platonic on Gojo's) Gn!reader Pronouns: Y/P [Your Pronouns] Type: Headcanon Warnings: I think just a bit of swearing Waiter's Notes: I wanted to try out a new twist, feel free to drop by and order if you like it! ^^ Author's Notes: Back to my jjk phase, and i noticed how there werent much 'character!reader's here and i really enjoy those so i just took it into my own hands. My reqs are always open!
Tumblr media
•Oh my Archons
•i cant with you two neither can Megumi tbh
•You're like two kids on a play date or smth
•He mostly doesnt understand your songs/poems so you're gonna have to dumb it down
•Tho he does like the sound of it
•He thinks your curse technique is the coolest thing ever like he has sparkles in his eyes every time you use it
•The way you control wind and make things fly is just so fascinating
•Please use ur anemo shit to make him fly. Bby has been dreaming of flying ever since he could eat weird solid food
•Sukuna would be so annoyed by you, and Yuji uses it to his advantage LMAO
•Though Sukuna prob knows who you are from a thousand years ago and just stays quiet about it because Yuji would definitely also use it against him
Tumblr media
•Man, give this guy a break, he already has to deal with Gojo and the one braincell duo
•He would describe you as loud or annoying but he actually tolerates you just because you can be calming sometimes
•He likes listening to your poems or songs, helps him sleep
•You go knocking on his window at 2am in the morning to sing him a song when he cant sleep 💀
•How you know about it? no idea. You just reply with ''The wind told me''
•Yeah he definitely needs sleep
•Same thing with Inumaki, Megumi doesnt sincerely respect you because of your antics. But he does admire you for your skill
•Esp the way you hold the bow and use attacks with no unnecessary movements
•He overall just likes your company if u just keep ur damn mouth shut unless ur gonna sing
Tumblr media
•To be quite honest with you, i think that she would think of you as a dumb potato aswell
•But she likes your beauty lets be real
•LIKE- YOU'RE SO GENDER
•SO?? WHY?? WOULDNT?? SHE?? TAKE YOU??? ON SHOPPING SPREES????
•I'd like to think that you both get along well
•ESPECIALLY IF U COMPLIMENT HER
•THEN HER FASHION SENSE
•THEN FOR THE CHERRY ON TOP, WRITE A POEM ABOUT HER
•Shes your aggressive best friend now
•Ready to kick your ass and to kick ass for you.
•Someone insults your hairstyle? No problem, theyre already hammered to the wall
•Gonna perform a song? your makeup is done, go slay it!!
Tumblr media
•Oh my Archons part 2
•He was very amused when he found out your cursed technique could manipulate wind
•Listen listen, you're probably his favorite student with how much u side along his pranks and goofiness
•NANAMI, MEGUMI AND IJICHI ARE SO DONE WITH YALL LMFAOO
•u basically took 20 years off their lifespan
•Like during winter, Gojo could dunk cold water on poor Megumi's head and u would send wind in his way 💀💀
•Is he considering murder? yes, definitely
•Gojo isnt even worried about you because you tend to use long ranged attacks and even if it comes down to short range, you're ready to beat your opponent up and summon your badass Black hole and start shooting them with your arrows that they end up being a porcupine
•IMAGINE HOW SICK IT WOULD BE IF YOU COMBINED THE BLACK HOLE WITH GOJO'S HALLOW PURPLE
•He occasionally brings candied apples for you when he comes back from missions
•smh favoritism
•He would get SO smug when u write a song/poem about him
•He brags to everyone and anyone about it 24/7, they first thought it was cute, now its getting so annoying
•IF you're like 1000+ years old like Venti then expect this man to go *insert surprised pikachu* when he finds out
•I honestly have no idea what his reaction would be if he finds out you're a literal god 💀

i wanna know about youre ocs
Um okay!
[OC]
Vincent Zakaria Wayne (He/Him)
Old oc who's white/seasian i had years ago revamped!
He was originally a batgirl oc before i turned him into a batboy.
He transitioned when he was 11, and he grew up together with dick. He was an accidental baby bruce, and his late mother had during his around the world training or..yeah..idk...just an accidental baby.
Basket delivered baby right on the wayne manor's doorstep lol. Bruce and alfred kept it a secret to public, bruce tried his best to raise a baby until dick came along and made it somewhat easier since he's got a sibling and he doesnt need to take care of vincent alone anymore. Somewhere during his batboy run, which bruce was really against since he was still 7 y.o, he got an accident with poison ivy where one of her plants injected a toxin in his left arm resulting it to be amputated during his recovery. He's forever banned from joining any outings with bruce and dick.
He did, however, find enjoyment from tinkering bruce's bats devices when he's not in the cave, which led him to learn about how the gadgets operate and work. Bruce found out but then just gave up and let him do whatever as long as he doesn't sneak out, and he made sure dick doesnt let him out either.
He's...28? Now and he travels a lot from gotham to anywhere. One time, he goes to Evergreen as an intel. He ran across the task force x and decided to tag along as an undercover guy and became infatuated with adrian. Um....idk that task force x involvements part's still messy, but who care its my oc i can put him in any situation for fun hehe.
So his current partner is Adrian Chase/Vigilante :]
I still need to write a lot of things for this guy since most of them are just blurbs of his reactions/what he did during important events and his interactions with the other family members + rogues.
Kheiran Hasan Renaldi (He/It) + Thrash (They/Them)
Originally made bcs i just wanted to give jason a partner, but then it spiraled down, got invested in his character, so i started developing a lore for him.
He goes by Keke most of the times.
He was born and is currently "living" in gotham, but sometimes he's out in space. I got inspired by nocturna's character at first, but now he's a completely different character lol. Also, they both are heavily inspired by negative man.
He had an unfortunate run with an abusive ex, which triggered some type of entity to lash out and save him from the brink of death. Unfortunately, he passed away on the same night. Then the entity revived him, but it turned Keke into a phantom who can only have his physical appearance during nighttime, and the entity bound themselves with his soul, giving him a star-like power which give him an opportunity to exist fully and physically but only when out in space.
Meanwhile, on earth, when the sun rises, he just vanishes, leaving a faint presence, so sometimes the entity would take over to protect his soul and mind from any type of harm or he would just be in the shadows waiting for the day to pass.
The entity's called Thrash, i havent really made a solid design for them yet but they're supposed to be a monster like figure from space
...no further explanation bcs im still writing abt him more so thats all for now ^^
honorary mention GRUNKY SCRIMPLE (any pronouns)
My beloved dcuo oc, a fox anthro with argokinesis power. Grunk's just a silly, big guy who just wanders around metropolis with a disguise and occasionally helps people. Despite having argokinesis, this guy knows nothing about plants!!
Grunk lives with a person who does tho <3

Twisted wonderland Angst
are you ready to read some angst i made at 2:am bc i was high on caffeine? I HOPESO SO LETS GET INTO IT.
TW- major character death (Yuu dies) heavy angst no comfort, bad grammar, basic angst trigger warnings FYI-Yuu is using he/they pronouns(like mine.), but i'll try to use they more.
this is going to suck but who cares? please do read the TW, I don't wanna trigger anything
A BIT OF INFO-a blot phantom started to attack the school,IDK how but just go with it I guess
3rd person POV-
Fire scorched throughout the collage campus. Bodies were everywhere Yuu stepped, and the cries of the damned echoed through the chaos, like a never-ending melody of pain and suffering. Yuu ran and ran, their breath growing heavier with each passing moment. Blood poured from their wounds, almost like popping open a bottle of blood-red wine. Yuu's feet seemed to have a mind of their own, for they kept running, even though each step felt like walking on broken glass. None of that mattered to Yuu, for all they cared about was finding Grimm.
Yuu finally came across Grimm. But he was in no condition to fight the monster.Grimm's right ear had a piece missing, and lots of gashes and wounds bleeding. "Oh gods, Grimm! "Yuu murmured to the cat, "Let's get you healed. "Grimm's blue eyes peered at the person holding him."Y-Yuu? Are you alri-"Grimm got cut off by yelling. "YUU!GRIMM!"Called Ace. He surprisingly looked unscathed. "Ace," Yuu said," take Grimm the hospital wing. Get him healed as soon as you can.I need to go do something." Handing the cat to the ginger, Yuu took off, leaving Ace to help Grimm.
. . . . . . . Yuu staggered, running as best as he could, as far as possible from that monster. It held a dagger with swords floating around its distasteful head. The beast roared, following. There was nobody to help Ramshackle's Prefect, with nobody but them around. With a sudden movement, a sword came down, piercing into Yuu's back, Knocking them down. Turning their head just in time to watch the beast float away, most likely to find its next Victim, Yuu crawled over to the nearest solid surface, which happened to be an apple tree. Propping themself into a sitting position, Yuu pulled off the locket that they held a picture of the first-year gang in. "heh, I’m gonna miss you guys,huh."They chuckled to nobody. Memorys washed over Yuu, as if he was watching a movie. . . . . . . .". ACE! "Deuce yelled, "WHERE IS MY HISTORY NOTEBOOK! I KNOW YOU HAVE IT" "Uh,Duece,bestie,"Ace started, "I kinda,sorta lost it..." "YOU WHAT-" . . . *BOOM* Epel blinked,"well, that ain't good." Jack groaned"our alchemy assignment just blew up Epel,of course its not good," . . . .. . . ."YUU~YUU~"Ace sang."What Ace?"Yuu asked."well," Ace started *SMACK* The ginger wacked Yuu across the head with a textbook. . . . . . . . Yuu wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry, knowing that they were going to die and will never see their friends or family again. And yet.Yuu was..happy,They smiled faintly before whispering to themself,"I'm going to come back as a ghost and kill those idiots...."A single tear ran down Yuu face as they slowly lost conscious. Listening to the ballad of screams and sheer pain, and panic of the people who were being pulverized by the monster, Yuu had one single thought,'Time eats all in the end..”
With one last deep breath,Yuu's pulse came to a stop.
this was shorter then i planned

Personal rant again (im feeling feelings a lot recently)
Happy trans day of visibility folks,
I myself am a trans man and am still in the closet. Been in there a good bit now because I was rather sheltered as a kid so I didn't even know I had a word for me until I was 12 and met other kids in high school who were queer and knew the words for it. As a kid, seeing my parents as gods, you're supposed to tell your mum everything right? So when I told my mum and dad i was bisexual (found later to be incorrect, I'm aroace, I do like everyone equally, not at all!), mum's support and love was expected, but dad's "That means you still like guys right?" crushed me. I told them a good while after I found the words for myself, so by that point I had learnt about homophobia from my nonna and transphobia from the other kids at school. So then I shut my folks out. If that was going to be the reaction to the smaller part of my identity, I won't be letting them see all of me. Them getting an idea of who I'm going to date is very different from learning that I am a fundamentally different person than they thought they were raising. The idea I am safer in the closet has been enforced steadily throughout the years, openly transphobic comments about strangers they see on the street, watching a news story that happened to have a trans woman as part of the street interview that they immediately started calling "he" despite never once meeting her, my mother making friends with the worst creature to call herself a person I've ever met. But recently, they've been getting a bit better. My partner who is also a trans guy, who they've known pre social transition, while they do slip up at times, they gender him correctly mostly and for the past 4 years since I got them to use his correct name, they haven't used his dead name ever since. I managed to get dad to stop trying to ask my queer friend's birth genders. I even got them to sit down and have a constructive conversation about their bigotry in other aspects and they seemed to actually listen and even apologised. I've been planning to come out to them for a while now since I'm an adult and I need to find a way to put this behind us. But again today, I am reminded how much who I am is reviled. One of my uncles loves to "stir the pot" and made a fun little joke (/s) about pronouns and while my older cousins tried to shut it down, he still made it. The man who is my godfather. The amount of stress I am constantly under and have been for years. The trying to figure out if I can tell someone my real name when I meet them or do I have to worry it will get back to my parents? I do have plans in place, people I can go to, a solid enough income that I won't go hungry anytime soon or not being able to sleep somewhere. But I'm not sure if them not hating me will be worse. Ive lost a lot of time to the fear I'd be kicked out of home as a child with no money and no one to help me. But if I gear up to tell them and set up all my nets to catch me and none of it was even necessary? I'd just be disappointed in myself for wasting so much of my life.

Being Seijoh’s Manager:
Confessing to Shinji Watari
Tumblr media
Shinji Watari featuring Seijoh x Fem! Reader (she/her pronouns)
Warnings: swearing (?), fluff
AN: this is a request from 🦢 anon! I changed it up a little to confessing instead of dating 😌 I hope this is acceptable!
Liberos are so underrated in HQ
There I said it, don’t come for me 🤚🏻
And just look at this cutie!!
The man who inspired Noya to learn to jump set from the back row
Honestly the G.O.A.T.
Also, he just oozes respect juice
He has so much respect for his upperclassmen and I know he drinks women respect juice like water!
Anyways, Seijoh had been thinking of getting a manager since FINALLY Oikawa would be retiring from the team 🙄
As much as an asset he was, he was the #1 reason they couldn’t have nice things
Needless to say, the second and first years were hard at work, scouring far and wide for a manager
Now, you knew of Seijoh’s infamous volleyball team
You also knew of loserkawa because all of your friends had crushes on him
Seriously… y tho?
But not you, you didn’t really find Oikawa to be your type
Instead you found interest in someone else 👀
A certain short haired, blue eyed angel
You were in a few classes with Shinji and knew he was on the volleyball team
But he honestly never seemed to notice you
He was pretty popular and he talked with everyone
But you ☹️
It honestly kind of hurt your feelings
But you see, the reason he wasn’t talking to you wasn’t because he didn’t like you
Oh no no no
In fact, it was the opposite
Man had the BIGGEST crush on you!
Literally, he watched you from afar way more times than he’d care to admit
You were so cute and fun
He adored your smile and how friendly you were to everyone
So when Seijoh found themselves in need of a manager…
Well let’s just say that a certain SOMEONE noticed your mutual pinning with Watari
A certain replacement setter 🙃 who was kind of annoying but like also way less annoying than Oikawa
Yahaba thought you would be the perfect addition to Seijoh’s team
You were smart, calm, fun and most importantly, cute 🥰
Which is why he asked you to be Seijohs’s manager, right in front of Watari
Man’s knew what he was doing
“Hey YN!” Yahaba shouted as Watari watched, confused as Yahaba ran up to you, “I was wondering if you’d be interested in being Seijoh’s manager?”
You looked at Yahaba and then your eyes drifted to Watari, who looked heckin mad that Yahaba was even talking to you
“Umm well I umm don’t know much about volleyball,” you shyly said
“Let me ask you, do you have a crush on Oikawa?” Yahaba asked as Watari glared at him from behind and you gasped
“WHAT NO!” You shouted
“Ok then you need no prior experience! Watari will walk you to practice tonight! See you there Yn!” Yahaba said running away quickly
Please he thinks he’s SO smooth 😅
Watari and you rn 👉🏻👁️👄👁️
After class, Watari nervously awaits you
You come out, smiling shyly as he greets you, walking you to the gym
“I’m glad you agreed to be our manager Yn,” he said, blushing
You practically die because he’s so freaking cute 😩
In the gym, you are greeted by Yahaba, Kyotani, Kindaichi and Kunimi
They are all extremely respectful and so happy your here
But then you hear it
The voice to break all sound barriers
Because guess who’s still on the team 🙄
“Oh my goodness is that Yn-Chan!” Oikawa screeches
The younger guys 👉🏻😐 please don’t leave us Yn we promise he’s leaving
“Hello annoying-kawa,” you responded
Please the rest of the guys are so freaking happy 😌
Despite the setback of having to deal with Oiks, you decide to take the manager position
Mostly because you get to be close to your crush 😻
You come to live and adore your team
Yahaba turns out to be a solid leader
Kyotani is quiet but super respectful
Kindaichi and Kunimi are both just happy you exist
And Watari, well he’s flustered like 98% of the time
You look so pretty in your managers uniform 🥹
You are super helpful to all the guys and always there when they need you
Watari has gotten more comfortable talking with you and vice versa
He helps you with water bottles and hanging nets
He helps you learn the game, rules and each position
Heck he even walks you home at night 🥰
Literally the sweetest boy
You’ve done well handling Oikawa
It’s the last few months before the third years finally leave so thankfully, only a little bit more time Yn 🙌🏻
Oikawa is always Oikawa meaning he loves attention
And Watari really gets annoying by this
He respects Oikawa but Oikawa is pushing it at this point
And both Yahaba and Kyotani notice his shift 👀
One night, when the second tears are tearing down the gym, Yahaba decides to bring it up
“When are you gonna confess to Yn?” He says as Watari stops and looks at him
Please his face turns bright red
“I-I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Watari responds
Yahaba 👉🏻mmhmm 😐😑
“It’s pretty obvious you like Yn,” Kyotani adds
Jesus does everyone know?!?
“She’s not interested in me, why would she be?” Watari responds as he finishes gathering the balls
Apparently all boys are oblivious because you are definitely interested Yn
And thankfully, we have an embarrassing Oikawa moment to make that VERY clear
“Yoo-hoo YN Chan!” An agitating grating voice fills the gym
You 👉🏻😐🙄 yes Oikawa
The entire team is gearing up for a practice match
Watari is helping you set up chairs as well as fill water bottles
“You know, I’m retiring soon and I think it’s time you grant your setter a date,” Oikawa chimes
Oof Watari is PISSED 😅
But you, our calm queen, remain neutral
“But I don’t even like you Oikawa,” you say as everyone dies of laughter
“Shittykawa leave Yn alone!” Iwa shouts as Mattsun and Makki back him up
“YN come on! How often is it that you get to go on a date with someone like me?!?” Oikawa shouts
“Sorry Oikawa but I like someone else,” you say as Oikawa reels
Watari deflated a little because of course you like someone else, you are gorgeous and smart and funny
What guy wouldn’t want to date you?!?
“Someone better than me Yn?!?” Oikawa continues
“Miles better,” you respond
“Who?!” Oikawa asks
“Shittykawa I swear to god- if you don’t leave Yn alone!” Iwa says before you interrupt
“I like Shinji,” you say, smiling at him and walking away
Watari 👉🏻😐😳😀 whet-
Yahaba and Kyotani 👉🏻😮😮
Mattsun and Makki 👉🏻😳
Oikawa 👉🏻👁️👄👁️
“Wait a second, you like Watari?!?” Oikawa screams
You 👉🏻😐 that’s what I said-
Please Yn, Watari is too stunned to speech
Watari.exe has stopped functioning
Thankfully Yahaba is there to help 😌
“You idiot! Confess!” He yells at the Libero
“I LIKE YOU TOO YN!” Watari screams
Talk about an awkward gym experience imma right 😅
“Well than settles it!” Yahaba says as he continues to get the gym ready
Please everyone’s like, “we really just gonna move on from this huh?”
You smile at Watari as he walks over to you and grabs your hands
“YN, would you go out with me?” He asks
Me rn 👉🏻🥹🥹🥹 you better say yes YN istg-
“Of course I will!” You say, kissing his cheek as he blushes

hello!! i hope your day is going well so far!! i was wondering if i could have a romantic and platonic matchup with the marauders :,) totally understand if not!
i’m 5’1 and use any pronouns but especially they/them and i have short brown hair with bangs. i’ve got a lot of tattoos that are all super meaningful but my favorite by far are two fairies on my right arm. also i’m a cancer sun and an infp.
i listen to all types of music but especially love folk and 70s glam rock. my style is super out there too lol i wear twiggy makeup every day!
i used to be extremely introverted but have become a lot more extroverted after finding the people i love - i’ve got a solid group of friends now and they make me sooo happy :,)
finally, i’m obsessed with poetry - always writing it or reading it and i would love to become a professor of creative writing some day.
i think that’s it! thank you so much and again if you have too many requests or aren’t doing matchups i totally understand!
Thank you so much for requesting a matchup! I hope you like it! <3

Harry Potter (Marauders Era):
(Platonic)
Remus Lupin:
Tumblr media
🐾 You met Remus at the Yule Ball, how you've never met or spoke to him until now was shocking; Remus likes reading and poetry too, and that's the night you both became friends
🐾 When you both have a free period, you both meet up to hang out and talk about books and poetry, and you love showing him your favorite 70's glam rock songs and folk music
🐾 Remus is a great listener, so if you ever just want to rant about anything or if you had a bad day, he'll listen to you and even give you some good advice; and you do the same for him, always there for him if he needs someone, especially after a full moon.
🐾 Remus even got interesting in how you do your makeup, which you loved explaining how you did you eyeshadow, etc; you even offered to teach Remus how to do your makeup (makeup budddddies)
🐾 Both of you are partners in crime, always there for one another, always bringing each other up when your down.
---
(Romantic)
Sirius Black:
Tumblr media
🐺 You met Sirius believe it or not, before Remus; you met Sirius when you were reading poetry at the Black Lake
He was just walking around, having really nothing to do on his free period, (since James, Remus, and Peter had different free periods); he was walking and spotted you, and of course the casanova had to go over and say hello
It was awkward in the beginning, but you both really hit it off, and that's when you realized who you were talking to, Sirius Black; and even though you knew him around school as the playboy prankster, you decided to give the young man a chance
And you were glad that you did, Sirius was the sweetest guy in the world, he even pushed away his flirtatious ways and only flirted with you, lucky you; Sirius was whipped, head over heels, you had his heart and he did not want it back
So much so he asked you to marry him in seventh year, you said yes but you wanted to wait a little bit, and he agreed; overall, you two are inseparable and perfect for one another, no one could compare to the two of you and no one can break you apart

The infamous Star Trek TOS episode Spock's Brain was on TV last night.
-------
Really wondering how reproduction is handled in that weird gender segregation set-up on that planet. An all-male hunter-gatherer society with Stone Age technology obviously isn't going to be making any babies, so presumably reproduction is handled by the Imorgs somehow. So... Do they send male babies up in that elevator thing and have the Morgs pick them up? A baby probably isn't going to survive if you just leave it in the elevator and hope some Morgs randomly wander by, so is there some kind of protocol for coordinating these pick-ups? Do they wait to send the babies up until their milk teeth have erupted and they're ready to start eating solid food, or have the Morgs figured out how to make some kind of low-tech baby formula equivalent? Or do the Imorgs raise the Morgs underground until they're old enough to somewhat fend for themselves and then release them onto the surface and they hope they find some group that will adopt them? Given that the Imorgs later capture and enslave adult Morgs, what's even the point of this? Wouldn't it be easier to just keep the male babies and raise them in Imorg society? Maintaining the Morgs as a separate but dependent parallel society just seems like a lot of trouble for the Imorgs for no obvious benefit.
--------
"Ooh, that guy doesn't seem to know what a woman is and looks befuddled when you ask if he has a 'mate' or 'companion.'" - you're talking to him through a machine translator and know almost nothing about his culture! Translation error seems pretty likely here! Similarly with Kirk confusing an Imorg by defaulting to male pronouns when asking to see their leader; if the UT is programmed to translate gendered pronouns faithfully, it might run into the same problem with any language that doesn't have them. If the UT is programmed to just render English default-male as whatever the equivalent convention is in the other language, it would probably just switch it to feminine or gender-neutral (archaically feminine but functionally gender-neutral in the modern language?) when translating into Imorg.
--------
McCoy is really quick to assume the Imorg are dumb cause they don't talk like our idea of how a smart person talks.
"She has the mind of a child" - hey, with the information you apparently have right now, perfectly viable alternate hypothesis: her people got their equivalent of the FOXP2 mutation a lot later than we did and had a lot more selection pressure for using theory of mind to compensate for inefficient communication; she has a less developed linguistic capacity than you and is a much less verbal thinker, but she has a perfectly fine intellect, and you can observe evidence that her people are not dumb by looking at the technology they have produced.
That said, the first time I watched this I thought the intellectual atrophy thing was kind of dumb, but I can kind of see it being a consequence of having a technology like the Teacher and skimping on conventional education and training because they're post-apocalyptic survivors in a doomsday bunker and their economy is very labor-limited and conventional education and training takes time away from other work. Like, if the Imorgs can just zap temporary knowledge into people's heads, maybe they don't need to teach their children much, so they don't, because conventional education and training would take time away from other work so it's more short-term efficient to just rely on temporary skills dispensed by the Teacher for almost everything. The Imorgs might be kind of high-function semi-feral; they're socialized to cooperate and to not break the plumbing and to use the Teacher to give themselves whatever temporary skills they need, and that's basically where their education ends. People like that wouldn't be dumb, but they might be profoundly ignorant, e.g. not knowing about planets and space, and not knowing what a brain is.

Okay... SO- I started to question my gender recently because of this one singer/actor who's very obviously masc (except for recently when he started dressing a bit femme but he still looks masc) and I've always wanted to have hair and eyes like his but recently I've also wanted his (again, masc) voice and facial structure. And like... I've used he/him pronouns before, but I always told myself that it's because I want to help trans and nb people by doing my part in normalising using different pronouns, not because I AM trans/nb. And like... I prefer loose clothes and short hair, but I always told myself it's because I'm queer and want to look queer. Anyways sorry for rambling
Don’t apologise. I’m hear to listen and help.
First off, it seems like you gotta unlearn some shit. Being trans is okay. Drill that into your head. Being trans is completely okay. And it’s okay if you’re trans. That is a possibility. You need to grasp that concept, I think. Being trans isn’t only for other people, for characters and friends and some far away distant thing, it is close and real and you can grasp it. You can be trans.
And I think you’re focusing more on finding something definitive. You’ve gone through all this uncertainty and now you want something solid. But it’s gonna take a while. In the mean time learn to live with it. You don’t know who you are, and that’s okay.
In the mean time, stop asking yourself “what gender am I?” and start asking “what makes me happy?”
What makes you happy?
Does they/them or he/him make you happy? Use it! Does masculinity make you happy? Be masculine! Do lose clothes make you happy? Wear lose clothes!
Be HAPPY!! That is all that matters!! Use the pronouns that make you happy dress in a way that makes you happy be the gender that makes you happy and everything will fall into place, or maybe it won’t, and that’s okay too bc being urself and being happy is what matters.
Added disclaimer of course, make sure to be safe, if you are in a transphobic area or depend on transphobes for financial support etc.
But like…you can be a dude if you want to, you know? Like that’s a thing you can just Do. You can legit jsut go what’s up, I’m a guy, and BAM!!
You can try it out for a bit, if you like. Genders are like. Comfy sweaters!! Try on different ones for a few days or so and see how you feel til you find one that’s comfy and fits.
Wake up brush your teeth look in the mirror say “Im a dude” and just. Don’t panick about it don’t overthink it just live with it, feel it in the back of your mind as you go to school do chores laugh with friends. See how it feels.
You can hold your heart in your fist or you can be afraid. Transness is not foreign, it is real and close to you as the soil beneath your feet and the blood in your veins. You can be trans, and if you are, that’s completely okay. Try it out. Be happy. Do what brings you joy, and everything will fall into place. You could be a masc or gnc woman or nonbinary, or you could be a dude. It’s okay whatever happens. Be happy.

what's up party people!
or at least that's what sam wants to say when he makes his "grand entrance" into lgc 🙄 anyway, i'm blue (any pronouns)! i was a member of lgc a while ago but never really got off the ground and had to quietly drop for personal reasons. i'm back now with a new muse and hopefully here to stay around a bit longer!
i remember that people used twitter a lot last time was here, so i created an account this time. it's not fully set up yet, but if you'd like to connect please give me a follow! i'll probably lock the account in a couple of days or so but please still feel free to follow req.
without any further ado, let me introduce a little more about sam under the cut!
sam's full story can be found here, but for a quick, summarized version, keep reading:
sam was orphaned at a young age due to some tragic circumstances but was adopted by his aunt, his father's sister, who was never able to have children and loved sam as if he were her own. she was always up front with him about his "real" parents, but as far as sam's concerned, she is his real mom. he grew up a bit spoiled and his aunt is very doting.
basically, sam's aunt was relocated to pleasanton, california for work and sam had no choice but to go with her. turns out he actually thrived there. he's a really outgoing guy, lacks humility or shame so he had no fear in speaking a language he wasn't very good at, and therefore got good at it quicker. it was in california that he really began to fall in love with music and his friends encouraged him to start dabbling in composition. his early stuff was atrocious and he's buried it all on an old hard drive somewhere.
around the time he was getting close to high school graduation, he started to gain an interest in kpop. unfortunately, the western music industry doesn't really have a place for asian men and sam sorta figured out he'd have a better chance of being a popular singer or something if he got himself in the kpop industry. turned out he was wise to think that, since he joined legacy in january 2020!
sam likes to think that he's the best thing since sliced bread. he's a bit full of himself, a bit cocky, but it's not totally without merit. he's a bit of a triple threat; he can sing well, he's a solid dancer, and he's pretty skilled at rap too. and he has a loud, boisterous personality that's just perfect for variety shows someday.
"but sam, if you're so good at everything, why haven't you debuted yet?" he would say that it's because he's so good that legacy can't simply add him to the existing boy groups and they're building him his own. he may be a bit delusional. gotta love his confidence, though.
despite being rather arrogant, he's a pretty nice guy! super friendly, super willing to help out a newer trainee or a peer who needs help in something he's good at. he recognizes that debut is a team effort so he's also trying to be the most liked trainee too... though he's a bit stupid so i can't promise he'll never offend anyone.
so now that we all know sam, how about some plots? :) i actually don't have very many ideas, but i'll add stuff on as i think of it!
i would LOVE a more antagonistic rivalry in sam's life. honestly, he could probably be the aggressor in the right situation. someone that just has a conflicting personality, who could fill the same role(s) in a future debut group, and sam finds to be a threat... but having a rival makes you stronger, so he's in no hurry to make amends.
not sure what his romantic history looks like exactly, but i do sorta imagine him as the type who always needs someone who dotes on him. i believe he's historically had a preference for women so he probably wouldn't have had a boyfriend, but he also really likes attention so i can see him leading someone on a bit just because they're into him. exes and flings are tentatively reserved for girls only, though. he might've been a nice bf at first but i think he's a bit emotionally selfish and even now isn't really mature enough to be in a serious relationship.
best friend, partner in crime sort of relationship? someone who lets him get away with anything and calls him out on his shit at the same time, sorta like a sibling-like best friend if that makes any sense at all. yes, it's contradictory. but they're the first to do some dumb shit with him and then tell him he was an idiot for it later.
a muse. sam likes to write music and compose, so someone he's inspired by. actually, this could be multiple people and go in a hundred different directions. someone he writes about because they're beautiful and he writes love songs with them in mind, someone who's another composer who he wants to learn from and may or may not steal ideas from, a close friend he writes songs for so they can impress the guy or girl with an original song for their confession, someone he hates so much he just has to write about it... the more the merrier!
i would also love someone to kick his ass. no i'm not joking. someone who gets so annoyed with his smart mouth and attention-seeking ways that they just deck him right in his stupid pretty face. it's honestly what he deserves.
i also just love love. romance plots are my bread and butter. i think sam's historically only dated women, but i don't know if he's totally straight. self-discovery might be nice, but he's a bit stupid so it'd have to be some damn good chemistry if it's with another boy. girls would probably have an easier time catching his attention!
again, i'm kinda short on ideas, but i'll add more to this post when i think of them! in the meantime, please drop me a like or send me a message either on tumblr or twitter and i'm looking forward to getting involved!!
