Tumblr media
방 찬 (Bang Chan)
Makes a playlist
Tumblr media
Loves you and also wants to keep your relationship private anyway
But also adores you and wants to show you off
He thought it would be fun to mess with Stay too
So he just started playing music that spelled out your name with the titles during his lives
He didn't do it all in one day because he was scared that someone would figure it out immediately
So he spread it across several lives
After he was done spelling out your name, he would just play your favorite songs
Or songs that would remind him of you
Or a song that you two heard while you were together and formed a core memory to
Would be blushing smiling like a dumbass while the songs are playing, remembering you and all the happy memories
Makes a playlist with those songs and shared the link on his bubble
He adds songs to it periodically so fans don't read too much into the order and see your name
Tumblr media
이 민 호 (Lee Min-Ho)
A special hand sign
Tumblr media
He's not the type who is big on matching couple items
And you were okay with that, he wasn't supposed to talk about your relationship anyway
But he was so in love with you, he wanted to tell the world
So he came up with a hand sign that he could do during performances and vlogs
Spent a lot of time researching sign language to make sure he wasn't going to do anything offensive or stupid
It also needed to be small and not complex so he could sneak it into dances
The first time he did it in a performance, he sat down with you and watched your reaction to the video
"Why did you do that? Did you forget the move and freestyle?"
You had sat through enough rehearsals and watched enough of their performances to know the choreography, especially Minho's parts, to know that he was not supposed to do that
"No, I did that on purpose." "Why?" "For you." "What?"
He let you sit confused for the rest of the video before finally explaining
The hand sign is meant to let you know that he loves you
And misses you
And is thinking about you
He did it every chance he got
It got to the point where Stay noticed and just thought it was a Lee Know Quirk™️
Naturally, they adopted it
You thought he would be annoyed that Stay was doing it too
"They're just helping spread and amplify my love for you."
Tumblr media
서 창 빈 (Seo Chang-Bin)
Wears a necklace with your name
Tumblr media
Genuinely does not care about having to keep it a secret
Wants to shout it from the rooftop
And has
The only reason he keeps quiet is because you don't feel comfortable being in the spotlight
But he will wear a necklace with your name on it
Like a dog collar
It literally says "If lost, return to Y/N"
Smug bastard
Refuses to take it off
Won't even tuck it inside his shirt
Will even purposely show it with your name facing out in pictures
It has to be edited in every picture
It's either edited to read "If lost, return to Stay," made to look blank, or edited out completely
Stay thinks that the return to Stay is the original so they made their own versions of it
"If lost, return to *insert select skz member*" or "If lost, return to Stray Kids"
Fans don't try to read the necklace anymore, they just think it's the Stay one
It's also a tiny locket
Which you only found out about 3 months into him owning the necklace
Naturally, there is a little picture of you in it
Tumblr media
황 현 진 (Hwang Hyun-Jin)
Couple rings
Tumblr media
He wears a lot of rings anyway, so nobody would think about the one that you two share being a couple ring
It was the one ring he never swapped out so Stay just thought it was his favorite
They aren’t wrong
That thing is always on his person at all times
If it doesn’t match an outfit for a photoshoot or a performance he’ll either wear it as a necklace or in his shoe
One time he tried to be creative and tied it to his hair so you could see it when they did a close up for a performance
Naturally, the ring flew off when he was dancing and it was lost
Couldn’t even go on stage to look for it when he realized because another group was on stage
Had a mini panic attack and called you crying while the guys tried to help find it after the show
You tried to calm him down over the phone and tell him that you two can just buy a new one
He didn’t want a new one, he wanted that one
He knew he could buy a new one, but he couldn’t buy the memories that came with the original
He won it in a claw machine during the date where you two made it official
It was one of those games where the prizes are actually expensive and good quality
After you two redeemed the rings, he got down on one knee and “proposed”
“Y/N, will you make me the happiest man alive and allow me to be your boyfriend?”
And on your one year anniversary you two got each other’s names and your anniversary date engraved on the inside
A few days later a staff member brought the ring and told him how they found it when they were taking down the set
After that he made sure all of his performance clothes had a tiny pocket on the inside just for his ring
Tumblr media
한 지 성 (Han Ji-Sung)
Paints one of his nails to match yours
Tumblr media
It started randomly
You two were watching an anime together and you were painting your nails because you needed something to do with your hands
When you finished, you saw how engrossed be was in the show
So you painted his pinky nail to see if he would noticed
He didn’t
After you finished painting his pinky, you contemplated painting the rest of his nails to see how far you could get
Decided against it since it would be a waste and he would just take it off soon anyway
“Look, we match!” Drawing attention to your handiwork
He looked confused at first
He saw how happy it made you and decided to just leave it
You were honestly surprised to see the nail polish still there 2 weeks later and slightly chipped
He was not happy to see that you had painted them a different color
“We don’t match anymore.”
It’d take you a second to realize that he was talking about the nail polish
"Let's get that fixed, shall we?"
"Can we put it on this finger this time?"
He would point to his ring finger
Wears his nail polish like a wedding ring
Has gotten to the point where you just text him when you changed the color
Would not let his stylist remove the polish or paint over it anytime he had to paint his nails for work
That nail was reserved for you two only
Fans thought he was just trying to be stylish and different with the singular different color nail
He bought a large set of mini nail polishes so that he would be prepared for the next time you went and painted your nails
Takes them with him on tour with him so he can keep up
Stares at his hand fondly and thinks of you
Tumblr media
이 용 복 (Lee Felix Yong-Bok)
Matching bracelets
Tumblr media
He was helping you move out of your parents' house and into your first apartment when he found a bracelet making kit
Persuaded you into taking a quick break so you can make bracelets
You taught him a few simple braids that he could weave together on his own
Took him a few minutes but he got the hang of it
When you two were finished, he suggested that you two swapped bracelets
Only takes it off when he has to for work or when he's taking a shower
Stay once made fun of it because it was so out of place with all of his expensive accessories
"This is the most expensive accessory I own, actually."
He felt bad because the one you wore was like a shoelace compared to his
You had incorporated both his and your favorite colors and somehow added little heart beads
Bought his own kit and practiced making bracelets until he was satisfied
Surprised you with the new bracelet
"Now I have one for each arm." "You can just take off the first one." "Why would I do that?" "You don't have to pretend to like it." "Why would I pretend to like it? I love it, you made it for me. A Lix original."
Would try not to cry, and fail miserably, over those words while tying the bracelet for you
Tumblr media
김 승 민 (Kim Seung-Min)
Keeps a photo of you in his phone case
Tumblr media
You two went and printed photo cards of each other at the mall one day
It was one of those kiosk where you could upload personal photos and they print out in photo card form immediately
You guys have two each, one individual photo of each other and your favorite couple photos
He keeps the couple photo framed and takes it with him on tour
But the one of just you? That's on his person 24/7
He considered getting one of those phone cases where you could insert a photo card or a clear case but he knew that would only cause him trouble, you two were meant to be a secret
So inside the phone case it went where it couldn't be seen
That thing is so protected, even if his phone fell into a sink full of water, your photocard would be fine
Pulls it out and stares at it when he's sad
Or tired
Or anxious
Or stressed
Or mad
Or drained
Or happy
He's so in love with you that he's always staring
Especially when you two are apart for long periods of time
If you two are unable to video chat but can talk on the phone normally, he'll pull out the photo card so he can at least look at you while talking
Panics any time his phone is missing
That photo cards, and the countless other photos he has of you on his phone would be gone forever
If you ever ask him about where he keeps his picture of you, he will lie and say it's at the dorm or something
You can't know how much he is actually in love with you
Sometimes the boys will find him asleep clutching his phone and when they go to try and take it so that they can charge it, they realized that he was just staring at the photocard taped to the case
Tumblr media
양 정 인 (Yang Jeong-In)
Sets a picture of you as his lock screen
Tumblr media
It took a lot of work
Chan had to help him figure out how to do it at first
If anyone looked at his phone, they wouldn’t see you, they would see a random landscape
But, if anyone held down on the lock screen, they would see the landscape pan over to you and you would be smiling at the camera
He saw that trend where people were turning live photos in to lock screens and figured it was the best compromise
Plays the video often when he misses you
Just sitting there, looking at his phone lock screen
Is careful how he holds his phone in public, does not want to accidentally trigger the video to play
Gets teased and called a simp for how often he looks at his phone smiling
But he doesn’t care
He just want to see the love of his life
Buy me a coffee?

##DORKIFYING THESE BASTARDS BECAUSE I CAN :3
↪Alt. Title: Relationship Hcs
↪Ft. Noel Noa, Itoshi Rin, Itoshi Sae
↪What's on your mind?: Ignore the bad cat drawing. I'm not an artist. Dont come after me saying theyre ooc unless you want to see this humble writer cry.
Tumblr media
Noel Noa
I'am a strong believer of the Noel Noa is secretly a dork belief.
He would definetely spend an hour trying to think of a reply to your texts without sounding too cold or too giddy. Nobody come after me bc I know I'm right😃
Whenever he wants attention he just stands and stares at you like 🗿🗿 and expect you to notice his motive and give him affection right then and there.
Is a great cuddle buddy to have. He's like a human sized teddy bear. Also human heater with his natural body warmth—Which is especially perfect for cold days.
The type to feel giddy whenever you give him a kiss and tell him good luck or have fun. His expression doesn't change but it's obvious he's in a good mood with the flowers that would float around by his side the whole day.
Doesn't know what to give you most of the time so just expect some luxury items chilling at your doorstep sent by yours truly <3
But don't worry about not having enough money to pay him back. Just give him some rose you bought on the way and he's more than happy.
What? I'm wrong you say? Well too bad I'm not taking opinions.
Tumblr media
Itoshi Rin
Pathetic man says he doesn't need your affections but sulks and becomes passive aggressive when you don't give him any. Like, the nerve?!!?
Becomes putty in your hands as you hold him close, wrapping your arms around his neck to pull him closer to you.
Denies it but def loves being the small spoon. Something about the way you gently yet firmly hold him in your arms, as though you're shielding him from all the bad things makes him almost want to cry.
Although he isn't too big on pda, he does make sure he touches in some way somehow. Maybe your elbows touches as you walk together, maybe your pinkies as you rest your hands on the table, maybe his knees touches yours when you sit together. Doesn't matter how little, he just needs a way to touch you.
Sometimes calls you randomly in the middle of the night. He just needs to know that you're still with him, he's not sure if he can sleep in peace if he doesn't.
Tries to tell you 'I love you" but fails miserably and ends up telling you it's nothing instead.
Itoshi Sae
Tumblr media
It goes without saying that this bastard is rich. Crazy rich. But the problem is he doesn't know where to spend it on. So, he goes with the safest option. Spend it on you.
The moment he catches you laying your eyes on a specific item, expect it on your drawer, receipt and all.
The type who gets so used to you saying you love him before he goes that when he notices you don't say it, he pauses in his steps and turns to look at you like. ??? Uhh hello? Where's the 'I love you, work hard but don't overwork yourself alright?'?? Why you just sending him off with a wave goodbye??
If you insist on not saying you love him then he'll walk off with a little stomp in his steps. The audacity! But this dumbass refuses to tell you what's the problem because it's so cringe, ew.
When he comes back home he's salty and is straight up ignoring you. How dare you not 'i love you goodbye' him?! Will keep up with this pettiness until you finally say the three words he's longed to hear eversince this morning.
After that, he's back to being unprovokingly rude(lovingly) and hugging you goodbye. Don't you ever do that again you loveable nincompoop, you can't just take away a essential part of his day like that.
Especially when he has a match against another team coming up. He won't be able to focus otherwise! He's so used to your words of love that the moment you stop saying them he gets incredibly worried (not like he'd ever tell you this) and it clouds his mind until the problem clears up eventually.
Gets so used to your affections and even sometimes ask you for it—non-verbally ofcourse. This bastard can't ask for affection properly for the life of him. Hates to admit it but he's grown to love the little affections you give him so don't you dare to ever pull that stunt again you got that?

empty threat (implied-ish gn!reader x satoru gojo)
notes: hi my name is niku and for some fucking reason everyone i know and love thinks i am a gojo fucker. first of all, they are wrong. uh anyway. one of them said a thing and that’s why this fic exists. it’s also @willowser​’s fault so they should take responsibility. thanks to fabi for checking this for me cuz never wrote this man before. 
word count: 1.1k
Tumblr media
“What the hell!”
You’re not sure what you were expecting when you asked to spar with Satoru Gojo. To spend twenty or thirty minutes of your time chasing after a basically untouchable foe until he got bored and decisively ended the fight? To get your ass handed to you as he reminded you, once again, of the difference between you and him? To totally and magnificently lose?
What you can say is you definitely weren't expecting to end up pinning the man who holds the title of the world's strongest sorcerer to the ground. You both know it's not due to your skill as a sorcerer or even due some dumb luck. The only reason why you've got Gojo pinned is simply because he's letting you.
And it pisses you off. It's not like you were expecting to win, but this is just…
"What's wrong?" Gojo asks, mocking you with that disgusting saccharine voice of his. "You look upset. I thought you wanted to beat me."
You do your best to remain calm and not respond to his provocations. Even so, your grip on his wrists tightens ever so slightly.
He notices because of course he does and winces dramatically. "Owie!"
"I know it doesn't hurt," you tell him flatly, resisting the urge to squeeze tighter. It won't do anything to him, but maybe it'd make you feel a little better.
"Nope, not one bit!"
Before you can stop it an annoyed growl escapes your throat and Gojo latches onto it, ready and more than willing to weaponize anything he possibly can. “Come on, what’s got you all frustrated? You can tell me, you know?"
Stupid fucking dumbass piece of shit jerk knows exactly why you’re mad. He probably let you get him because he knew how much it’d aggravate you.
“No need to be so shy,” he continues purposely ignoring your growing rage. “We’re friends after all, aren’t we?”
You choose to remain silent and instantly find it’s the wrong response as Gojo starts to prattle on and on about how he thought that you were friends and how sad he is that you, as his friend won't talk to him, won’t rely on him and blah blah blah. He really loves the sound of his own voice, doesn’t he? Normally, you would just tune him out, but your agitation has left you impaired and on edge.
You need Satoru Gojo to shut up.
Like yesterday.  
Instinct takes over and your body moves on its own, you pull back just a bit before slamming your head in his direction full force. But the hit doesn’t connect because of course it doesn’t. Instead, you feel like you are just hovering over him like an empty threat that you’ll never make good on.
He laughs and your frustration flashes in your chest hot, agitation at its peak. “You know, if you wanted to kiss , you could have just asked.”
“I do not want to kiss you!” you snarl, refusing to take the accusation in silence.
“Oh? You don’t?”
“Hell no!”
“What a shame! I made sure to put on one of Nobara’s lip masks on last night so my lips would be super soft today!”
In a moment of weakness, your eyes flicker to his mouth and his lips curve upward in a smirk. Fuck. It doesn't matter that it was for just a split second— he caught you looking. You consider accusing him of stealing Kugisaki's skin care products to deflect the accusations that are sure to come but before you can the infinity between you dissipates unexpectedly bringing you mere inches from Gojo's infuriating face.
"Well?" he asks, voice intentionally seductive, his warm breath perfuming your face. You manage to suppress a shiver. It's an act. It's an act. He's just trying to get under your skin. "Wanna see for yourself?"
Your refusal lingers at the tip of your tongue— stuck for some reason you don't care to delve into right now.
"Come on." He almost sounds like he's pleading with you, and you keep reminding yourself that the bastard is just fucking with you. "I promise they're really soft."
Your eyes, traitorous things that they are, try to look again, but you force your gaze upward. Maybe if you try headbutting him again it'll work. There's nothing between you now, right?
No harm in trying.
You shift, trying to conceal your movements as best you can before going in for another headbutt. Surely Gojo will put infinity between you when he realizes that you're trying again, saving you both from what could be a massive headache.
But he doesn't.
You end up stopping yourself this time— your mouths even closer now. Too close. You finally take notice of your heart thumping wildly in your chest, the sound echoing in your ears. You should move. You need to move. Now. If you don't, one weird move from either of you will likely close the distance between you.
It's unfortunate for you that Gojo is a fan of weird moves.
He shifts beneath you, just slightly, his chin tilting up and you feel like a thread that's just snapped in two. You reel backwards, repelled by the thought of kissing Satoru Gojo, rejecting the thought, the notion, that for the breadth of a second your lips connected. It didn't happen. It didn't. You still want to wipe your mouth though, just in case. You don’t because you don’t want him to think that maybe there was contact.
Beneath you, Gojo laughs again, amused as he always is. Unsure of what to expect, you jump off him and assume a defensive stance. He rises so that he's sitting up, and you can't tell for sure with that blindfold but you feel like he's watching you.
"I think that's enough for today," he says, pushing himself to his feet. You eye him nervously, keeping your guard up in case it's a fake out. Gojo walks past you nonchalantly and you think that's confirmation that he really is done for the day.
"It was fun," he remarks cheerfully and the fact that it sounds like he means it annoys you a little. Then, his voice drops as he adds, "We should do it again some time."
The way his voice sounds makes it seem like you've just wrapped up a date and not a fight. It makes you feel funny inside and you scowl as you turn to face him, fully intending to tell him to shut up.
But you don't.
Satoru Gojo instead blows you a kiss, immobilizing you before he saunters out the door looking far too pleased with himself.
You stare, your heartbeat erratic and your face warmed by what you're determined to call rage.

way way back in the 1980s
Tumblr media
modern au!hanatengu clones and their high school experience.
content warning: brat's dumbass headcanons, drabble, mentions of fighting, a bit suggestive on the first part?, mentions of cheating, karaku is a manwhore
i may(MAYBE) update this as time goes on
brat's says...title from the clone high theme cause, clones, high school, get it?
Tumblr media
a group of quadruplets. they're extremely popular in their school.
All four of them are extremely popular with the girls, but there is a ranking list between the girls at their high school. It goes, Aizetsu, Karaku, Urogi and Sekido. All the girls like Aizetsu due to his timid, sensitive nature. He is unaware of this and all his brothers are mad that he doesn't realize it.
Karaku is second, he is rated highly for his looks and his flirty personality. However, with this, he is seen as very easy and alot of girls only want one thing from him, which he doesn't mind.
Urogi is third cause while he is hot and funny, he is extremely loud and quite annoying. He doesn't realize this and if we're being honest, he wouldn't care.
Sekido. He's ranked last cause he's literally angry and snappy to everyone. When the girls ranking list got leaked, everyone was afraid he would lash out at being ranked last. He was more mad that his brothers one upped him on the rankings than everyone else, so most of his anger was directed towards them. The brothers rub it in any chance they get.
worst boyfriends ever
Sekido or Karaku are Heartbreakers. Do not trust these men with your heart they will crush it and step on it.
Sekido has a reputation of being distant and cold to his partners, or dumping them randomly. All girls avoid him after his last breakup ended with his ex moving away to avoid him.
Karaku is notorious for messy breakups. The only girls that will date him are either from other high schools or new girls that come to his school. The messiest breakup he was in involved him cheating for 3 months, on his girlfriend of 5 months. Both girls got into a fight in which one pulled out a knife. When he was confronted all he said was "My bad."
Aizetsu and Urogi haven't had any long-term relationships. They can't make it out the talking stage.
WORLDSTARRRR
Sekido. Straight up. There's countless videos of him fighting at school. He's won every fight. He also fights his brothers, but that's more of a play fighting type of deal.
He will fight for his brothers. You got an issue with one of his brothers, you got an issue with him.
"party at our place! ladies get in free, guys gotta pay."
insane. house. parties.
Urogi and Karaku love to host parties and invite anyone who is anyone. Every party has ended with the cops being called due to noise complaints or everyone running cause the cops showed up.
Their parents haven't caught on yet.
speaking of parents...
They have a super nice foster mother. she adopted all four of them along with their little brother Zohakuten. She's a hard working nurse that loves her boys so much and they love her as well. She wants the best for her boys and always encourages them to do their best.
let me see that report card.
Sekido and Aizetsu are top of their classes. Aizetsu was acknowledged as the top student at his school. When called for his reward he accepted it awkwardly and started purposefully failing so he wouldn't be the center of attention anymore.
Sekido is smart and calculated, but he tends to get frustrated when he cannot understand certain questions or lectures, he refuses to be tutored. His last tutor was Aizetsu but they got into a disagreement over a question that ended with a huge fight and a hole in their shared room.
Urogi and Karaku are...troubled. Urogi makes the worst grades, and Karaku doesn't even try.
athletic af
These boys are athletic. Every sport they try they dominate.
Sekido does football, Karaku does basketball, Urogi does track, and Aizetsu doesn't participate in school sports, but he is amazing at basketball.
These boys are the reason their school is on the map for their school teams.
pranksters and interviews
Urogi and Karaku.
You know those youtubers that walk up to you and interview you? "What's the freakiest thing you did?" They do shit like this to get a reaction out of people. They have been reported many times for it.
They're the reason students get routine bag checks. They once pulled a prank with a homemade stink bomb in a closed class room. No one found it funny, not even them.
what does everyone truly think?
euthanize all of them except for aizetsu

Working on the next chapter of The Arrangement (Zosan omegaverse) and well:
----------
Sanji not even looking up from his work that he shouldn’t even be doing for their bottomless pit of a captain considering he was in heat. “I didn’t want Nami to do any work while she was enduring her heat. Or worse have to leave the room she had chosen for it to get it herself. It was something I could do to help her after she refused any other assistance. It’s much less effort for me to provide for myself than it would be for her considering those facts.”  
“Right. Should you be doing work seeing you’re in heat?” Luffy asks.  
“You’re the one who ate all the food I prepared and then came barging in here demanding more!” Sanji snaps at their dumbass captain rightfully deserves.  
“Oh. Right,” Luffy says with a laugh.
----------
“I-” Sanji goes to protest but as soon as Zoro moves a hand off the counter to tug his shirt from his pants his legs all-but melt from under him and his hands are the ones clinging onto the counter. “Fuck. Okay. But be quick.”  
“I said I would be.” And the shitty cook had made fun of him for it as well.  
“No,” Sanij says when Zoro tries to pry him from his work station and back towards the nest so he doesn’t get bitched out for contaminating the food. “Here’s fine.”  
Zoro is fine with that until it hits him the likely reason why.  
“You don’t seriously plan on cooking while you’re knotted?”  
----------
This one's draft title is "these characters are not exactly known for having the brightest ideas at times"

If You Want Me Too (Let's Make a Move) - also on AO3
~
Anna's trying to steal Danny's blanket, and they only cut it out when someone walks in: Eddie.
~
For December prompt challenge day 19: sharing blankets. I went…a bit off the rails with this one. Title from Kiss You by One Direction.
~
“Scoot over.”
Danny opens a bleary eye to see Anna with her hands on her hips glaring down at him. “Excuse me?” he mumbles.
“I’m cold.” Anna doesn’t wait for him to respond – she drops down onto the floor next to Danny and yanks the blanket.
Danny yelps as the rush of cold air hits him. “I was asleep, you asshole!” He grabs at the blanket, but it’s too late. Anna’s grip is iron. “Get your own fucking blanket!”
“Yours is bigger,” she replies, like it makes any sense, and scoots up behind him. She sighs, sounding infuriatingly comfortable. “Oh, that’s better.”
“Why do you get to be big spoon?” Danny grumbles, but he grabs Anna’s arm and wraps it more tightly around his waist. At the very least, she is making him warmer. A little.  
Anna scoffs. “Get to be,” she says, burying her face in his neck. “This is a service to you, you big brat.”
“Me?!” Danny rolls over, finding himself nose to nose with Anna. “I saw how annoying you were with Kris the other day. I am not the big brat here.”
“You were practically presenting to Eddie when you had the match with him earlier tonight,” she says, and isn’t it so fucking infuriating that she doesn’t even respond to his goading. “Oh, Eddie,” and it takes a second to realize that it’s an attempt to mock him, “let me dance on you so that you’ll notice me.”
“Was – was that voice supposed to be me?” He shoves at her with his foot and takes the blanket back, rolling himself up like a burrito. “You suck. Go away.”
“Give me back your blanket!”
They’re wailing on each other, as much as Danny can with his arms and legs tied up in the blanket, when the door swings open.
“What the fuck is going on?”
Danny’s eyes widen. “Eddie,” he says, trying to carefully extricate himself out of the trap he’s got himself in. He flops off of Anna, without an ounce of grace. “Hey.”
“What,” Eddie says again, adjusting his hat, “the fuck is going on?”
“Anna stole my blanket,” Danny says, shimmying out of it.
“Really?” Eddie asks, looking pointedly where Danny’s still sitting in the pool of blanket around him. “Looks like you refused to share.”
“I –”
Anna starts cackling in the corner. “Alright, I’m good now.” The way she stands up is like a dance move, and Danny kind of wants to kill her for how much more suave she looks than him. “That was more than worth it. See you later.” She throws a wink Danny’s way and prances out the door.
Danny looks up at Eddie as he stands. “Here for a rematch or something?”
Eddie laughs, and Danny is, as always, very distracted by the way it crinkles his eyes. “You wanna fight me again?”
Danny shrugs, trying to fight the urge to curl in on himself. “If I gotta.”
“You’re cute,” Eddie says. When Danny lifts his head, Eddie’s closer. Much closer. “Wanted to ask you to dinner, you dumbass.”
“I – really?” Danny has a bunch of retorts locked and loaded for any time, but they fail him.
Eddie nods and reaches out, running a thumb along Danny’s jaw. “Yeah, really.” His smile is gentler than Danny had thought him capable of.
Danny flickers his eyes around the room. It’s still empty, and Anna had closed the door behind her. “I thought we didn’t – do that.” He presses his lips together.
“You never seemed to want to,” Eddie says. “But you, uh. You got kinda flirty in the ring.” He licks his lips. “Those dance moves seemed to give away more than anything I could do.”
Danny rolls his eyes. “You were, like, taunting me.��� He meets Eddie’s eyes, and can’t fight the smile. “What else was I gonna do?”
Eddie reaches out and grabs Danny by the waist, pulling him in. “Whattaya say?” Eddie murmurs, eyes flicking down to Danny’s lips. “Dinner. You and me.”
Danny nods. “Okay,” he says. “Yeah, let’s get dinner.” He looks up, and Eddie’s eyes are soft as he gazes down. “Um.”
Eddie frowns. If Danny didn’t know better, he’d call the shadow behind his eyes hesitation. “Reconsidering?”
Danny shakes his head. “Just – I want to know if this means we’re like. Dating. For real.”
Eddie studies his face. “You sayin’ you wanna date for real?”
Danny juts out his chin. “Do you?”
“I asked you first.”
“Did not,” Danny says. “I asked you first.”
Eddie grins. “Guess you did.” He sighs. “As long as it’s what you want.”
“As long as – you think I don’t want to?” Danny rolls his eyes. “God. Of course I want to.”
“Really,” Eddie says. “I’ll be damned. Okay.” He ruffles Danny’s hair, and it’s less annoying than when Magic or Anna or Ange do it. “Let’s go on a date to dinner.”
“You wanna go now?”
Eddie licks his lips. “I mean, soon. I got an idea for an appetizer.” He leans in and kisses Danny, not hard, but definitely not soft, and it makes his legs feel a little like jello. He hums against Eddie’s lips, slipping his hand up to steal his hat.
“Hey!”
Danny grins up at him. “If we’re officially dating,” he says, “then I get to steal your clothes.”
Eddie’s eyes shift. “Oh. That’s what it is, huh?” He pushes Danny up against the wall. “Want me to make a claim on you, huh?”
Danny swallows. That hadn’t been his intention, really, but he’s definitely on board. With Eddie’s eyes burning into him, he nods.
Eddie leans in, biting at Danny’s lip before kissing him so deeply Danny’s brain starts to fizz. Eddie grabs at his leg and hikes it around his hip before sliding his lips down Danny’s neck and latching teeth.
Danny gasps. “Jesus,” he chokes out. “You weren’t kidding.”
Eddie licks across the new bruise, gentle, and pulls back. “Never do, baby.” He presses another kiss to Danny’s lips, almost chaste, and pulls away. He reaches out and presses his fingers against what Danny knows will be a slowly purpling bruise. “That claim enough?”
Danny nods. “Yeah,” he says, and he even sounds breathless. He reaches up and touches, shivering at the tiny ache that blooms when he presses down. “Let’s go get dinner.”

fic rec friday 9
welcome the the ninth fic rec friday! where, on friday, i rec five of my favourite fics. 
1. drive me to distraction by @freshia
“Don’t worry, I got all the necessities.” he says, reassuringly, as if that’s what Keith is worried about. And then: “And if you ever want to see your Fall Out Boy t-shirt again, you’ll get in the vehicle! This is a robbery.”
Where Keith is sort of kidnapped for a road-trip with Lance, and is sort of okay with it.
road trip? college au?? best friends to lovers?? pining?? endless tenderness but never saying it put loud?? sign me tf UP. the last lines will fucking kill me every time like i literally have to close my eyes and force myself to breathe deeply. theres something so endless about refusing to speak your feelings out loud but they know what you mean anyway. god.
2. The Courage of Stars by @derryhawkins
The Lions of Voltron can turn into actual lions. Who knew, right? When Allura tells them of this news, Lance is ecstatic. The only problem? Lance figures out that he somehow has one of the strongest bonds with Blue. To keep the others from feeling bad about their own progress, he keeps this information to himself.
It doesn’t take long for certain others to think he’s not taking everything seriously.
this one is more langst than team-as-family, but i still love it deeply. i like it bc it has some nuance for allura, some explanation as to why she struggles to badly to connect with the paladins in the beginning. im not sure the series was ever finished, but this work in particular was, and i loved it! the lance & blue megabond is a treat to read every time.
3. Solar Flare by @heavenlyfires
Accompanied by the scattered applause throughout the ballroom, Keith lifts a slim brown hand in his own and presses a lingering kiss to the palm.
"It’s good to see you, Lance,” he says.
His voice is raw; his face feels naked. Keith’s known for his poker face, but here, in front of Lance, he has no self control. His emotions are spilling over onto his face like tears, too strong to be constrained.
He looks into Lance’s eyes and that suddenly doesn’t seem like such a bad thing.
“Yeah,” Lance whispers, a gentle and devastating smile on his face. He reaches a hand up — soft, Keith notes — and tucks some hair behind Keith’s ear. His fingers trace a gentle path across Keith’s jaw; his eyes flick across his face but inevitably come back to meet Keith’s own, the blue in them impossibly seeming warm toned with the full fond force of Lance’s gaze.
“It’s good to see you, too,” Lance says.
Has Keith mentioned yet that he loves him?
"Solar flares occur when a buildup of magnetic energy... is suddenly released.” - Space.com
After almost two years of unbearable distance, Keith and Lance find themselves at a ball, together.
fuckin pining klance and binary star imagery, man. gets me every time. i love me some post canon green sock reality where everything is good and right and keith and lance are somehow still pining like dumbasses, but are whipped to the point of ridiculousness. absolutely love that for them. and the idea of klance as a binary star system will fuckin make me tear up every time fr bc they ARE they are a GOOD TEAM
4. Nine Blocks and To-Go Cups by @jackwillwrite
"Can I have...six things of expresso?" Lance asks.
"Shots?" Keith offers, although he dearly hopes that's not what Lance is asking.
(In which Keith isn't sure how he ended up as a barista working shifts in the god-awful hours of the morning, and Lance is a regular who somehow manages to make it bearable.)
im trying so desperately to hype this fic up and also not spoil it but let me tell u when u get the lil twist ending and the title finally makes sense u will be GAGGED. i know i was. i could not believe what i was reading i wanted to YELL. it was insane and my heart still gets all pumped when i think about it bc i was truly like NO FUCKIN WAY
5. a fissure in my vision by @ink-beneath-her-fingernails
"It appears... Well, the Ranithians were under the impression that we were all adults by Terran standards. When they realized that you four technically aren't, or at least not entirely, they decided to... test you."
"Test us."
Lance's voice is flinty; icier than any of them have ever heard him, and he wears a face to match.
It's not a question.
(Or: Sometimes, the Paladins can't account for everything that might happen. Sometimes, even allies with good intentions can lead to awful things. Sometimes, your own mind is your worst enemy.
And sometimes, being a Paladin really, really sucks.)
words cannot express how much this fic has haunted me. literally the worst possible reality without actually being the worst. yall think you’ve read a crossover before?? think again!! hunk and lance’s arcs especially knocked me fucking flat. like i was just aching for them so so badly. sometimes when i wonder what could be worse (in terms of how much it would suck for the paladins, not how it was written; this was written beautifully) than canon i remember the paladins could have suffered through this
that’s it for today!! i’ll see y’all back next friday for the next fic rec post!!!

my rating of supernatural season 1
1 - pilot
this is a damn good pilot. i will be so real. it does a great job of drawing you immediately into the story, giving you a lay of the land of the characters and their dynamics, and sets up not only the greater premise of the show but the monster of the week formula. the chemistry between ackles and padalecki is pretty instantaneous and it's nice to see a show with two leads able to carry it on their charisma alone. fortunately, there's also a lot more left to offer. whoever the person was who wrote the first wincest fic like two hours after this aired, i get it. 7/10
2 - w*nd*g*
not saying the title because i belong to the school of i don't want to fuck around and find out. this episode was alright, as someone from colorado one of the most common demographics of people who come here are "dumbass hikers" so i appreciate the nod to our culture. other than that, it was pretty unremarkable. 4/10
3 - dead in the water
this one was pretty solid! it gave the boys a pretty good mystery to solve and it sets a dark tone for the rest of the series. the theme of self sacrifice is also set up well here. drowning is also just like. a pretty gnarly way to die. 5/10
4 - phantom traveler
i found the demon in this one to be pretty cool, but if i'm completely honest i don't necessarily care for the episodes that break the impala motel fucked up town setting dynamic. i also just don't care a lot for this kind of plane horror. you can see that plane hijjacking is a trope kripke enjoys, however, as he uses it again in the boys. 4/10
5 - bloody mary
this one genuinely fucked me up, and it sets up the fact that sam has been receiving visions really subtly and effectively, given how they tend to play out more in episodes more explicitly devoted to the demon the winchesters are hunting. also bloody mary always scared the shit of me out as a kid so i adamantly refused to say it. 8/10
6 - skin
this is the kind of body horror i personally really enjoy, and it was also crazy seeing some of the greater repercussions the boy's lifestyles has on their lives. at least it'll be a legal nightmare if dean gets caught doing credit card fraud because, thanks to this episode, he is legally dead. also the fact that the shapeshifter turns into people's romantic partners but for the brothers it tempts them with... each other? normal show about a normal brotherly relationship. 8/10
7 - hook man
any horror that involves faith i am immediately behind. this will be a theme throughout this summary. i found the idea that the monster was manifested by lori's own repressions to be especially compelling, and done really well. the idea that our own repressions can inadvertently cause harm to others around us if we don't sit and take time to work through them is fantastic. lori was also my favorite quasi-love interest for sam this season. sue me. i thought they were cute. 7/10
8 - bugs
we have our first instance of the "sam and dean trigger so many fag alarms it overrides the normal amount of homophobia any rural midwesterner feels at any given moment in time". sam and dean are better than me because i would have for real left the people building a housing development on old sacred american indian land and let them die. other than that development, the final battle with the bugs was a bit anticlimatic. points for dean slapping sam's ass. what. 4/10
9 - home
missouri mosely i am letting you know that i am free this wednesday and would be maybe willing to get a coffee or another delicacy this week on wednsday when i am free. for real though, i really liked missouri's character, and it's a pity she gets relegated to a magical negro stereotype, as this show doesn't tend to have a great track record with its female characters. however, she was probably one of my favorite side characters this season and i stand by her and would love to learn more about her. other than that, loved this episode. sammy's psychic abilities reappearing, dean reconfronting his childhood trauma, mary winchester sacrificing herself for her boys in a way that just sucked the soul out of my body, JOHN WINCHESTER????? definitely one of the seasonal highlights. 9/10
20 - asylum
i hate the haunted asylum trope and this didn't subvert it enough to make this worth it. it gets points for the john winchester phone call event and sam being forced to sit through a therapy session and talk about his relationship to his brother offscreen. 3/10 [edit: came back to this one and i think i'm gonna bump it up to a 5/10 because some truly unhinged samdean shit happens in this, and every time i see a gifset from it i'm immediately like oh right They Did That. insane.]
11 - scarecrow
Codependency Thee Episode. besides a genuinely good evil force (i love small town/suburban white people trying to deal with forces beyond their control it's so funny like what are the hoa and pta meetings like), it does a good job letting there be conflict between the brothers and show how they are really better together. also sets up meg as an antagonist, and she serves. 6/10
12 - faith
oh this episode had Everything. sam and dean being typically codependent with the fear that dean's gonna die? tent revival preacher whose abilities actually come from a dark force? critique of american evangelicalism? surprisingly nuanced discussion of how faith in and of itself is not evil and how we all make concessions in our personal beliefs to care for the others around us? the absolute batshit revelation that sam is just like. unfazed if people die if he can save the life for his brother? don't fear the reaper needle drop? it has it all. what can i say. 10/10
13 - route 666
overall not a bad episode, the handling of race felt a bit superficial and on the nose, but america's legacy does lead to the racist-ass ghost being a pretty fun thing to destroy. preyed on my fear of big trucks. dean is a romantic sap. 5/10
14 - nightmare
THIS EPISODE IS MY REASON FOR EVERYTHING. FUCK. THIS IS PEAK EVERYTHING I LOVE ABOUT THIS SHOW. max damn near broke my heart, and it was incredible seeing not only more of sam's abilities but also his empathy. you can really tell he doesn't know what would have happened to him if he hadn't had the family he does have. this episode completely ripped my heart out. 10/10
15 - the benders
everyone told me this was a great episode and i'm so grateful for my friends pals and mutuals who would never lie to me. i had the best time. i like the care this episode had, given that the show primarily focused on supernatural forces, to do a classic case of the "humans are oftentimes more evil than spirits and creatures from beyond our wildest imagination". it's one of my favorite tropes, and it was used so well here. the aesthetics of the show as well felt like the texas chainsaw massacre mixed with duck dynasty, which is an unexpectedly brilliant combo. 10/10
16 - shadow
getting to see the john/sam/dean dynamic is so fascinating but honestly this episode gives me hives just thinking about it. 5/10
17 - hell house
this episode didn't stick the landing for me as much as it could have, despite the concept of enough people believing in a haunting that they manifest it (and the internet exacerbating that) being really fucking good. i will give it some grace, i think it's good to have an episode that allows some levity in the show and in the brothers' relationship. 4/10
18 - something wicked
i'm sorry the boys as kids make me feel like really ontologically sick and miserable. it was really cool getting a deeper glimpse into dean and his intrinsic sense of responsibility for sam, as well as his clear empathy for kids that is often a lot less evident than sam's. dean winchester i love you, i just can't think about you as a baby or it will make me cry. 8/10
19 - provenance
i'm sorry, i really didn't care for this episode. most we got out of it was seeing why sam was hesitant to open himself up to new love after jess and dean's vested interest into getting his brother laid. which. uh. i will say the little ghost girl in her sweeney todd era served cunt. 3/10
20 - dead man's blood
can't believe true blood came out after this episode and not before. i like episodes that take place in colorado for personal reasons, but it was also so fun to see the boys take on some vampires, who have some pretty fun mechanics. this episode also introduces us to the series mcguffin, and i just have to say i think it's pretty funny how the boys get the colt and immediately like use all the magic bullets in one go. it's the opposite energy of when i get a cool item in a video game and hold onto it the whole time, even in occasions where i'm supposed to use it, because i'm scared i might need it later. 9/10
21 - salvation
feels unfair to rank this episode and devil's trap separately. all i will say is i got jumpscared by kansas because i wasn't expecting the wayward son to carry on until the next episode. 10/10
22 - devil's trap
eric kripke what the fuck. i can't even articulate my thoughts on this. i hate this show and everyone involved in it. 10/10

Myosotis by War_of_the_Words (Detective Conan & Magic Kaito | Kudou Shinichi/Edogawa Conan x Kuroba Kaito/Kaitou KID | Gen)
KID is a mysterious artist known for his mystifying paintings and their refusal to make a public appearance. Who are they? What is their purpose? People want answers, but before they can get any, KID produces one final piece of art before vanishing completely. Private Investigator Kudou Shinichi doesn't care about art, and has only heard a little about the case of the Phantom Artist KID from his friends. He is forced to take interest, however, when he comes to find out that KID's final painting bares a striking resemblance to himself. Now what would an artist like KID have to do with a detective?
How we begin by OrphanText (Magic Kaito | Hakuba Saguru x Kuroba Kaito/Kaitou KID | Teen+)
Hakuba calls in his favour from KID. It's not what KID thinks it is.
Pining by CynicalMistrust (Fukigen na Mononokean | Ashiya Hanae x Abeno Haruitsuki | Mature: violence & blood)
"Blink, dumbass." Hanae almost blinked, but he stopped himself, unable to pass up the chance to antagonize Abeno. Instead, he blinked twice and was rewarded with a sour look. Luckily for him, he was pretty sure Abeno wouldn't hit an injured and paralyzed patient in a hospital bed. Unfortunately, Abeno wasn't above picking up a pillow and smacking Hanae in the face with it, but it was a small price to pay.
Only A Boy by RiddellLee (Harry Potter & BBC Merlin (TV) | Teen+)
Merlin had fulfilled his destiny. Albion was alive and beautiful, and magic was no longer feared in the land. But nothing ever lasts, does it? Memories gone, and in his ten-year-old form once more, he's traveled over a thousand years in the future. Now, he has a new destiny: He has to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, hide the fact that he's Merlin, and defeat a Dark Lord that's messing with magic he knows nothing about.
hello my old heart by taizi (Natsume Yuujinchou | Gen)
Takashi thinks of the half-empty book upstairs, guarded by a ward strong enough to make the chuukyuu’s eyes water from the backyard. The secret that only half the people in the room are aware of. The wall between himself and everyone else that he built stone by stone by stone, to keep them— and himself— safe from inevitable hurt. “You don’t even know me,” Takashi blurts. Nishimura sits up. Kitamoto makes a grumbly noise and starts extracting himself from blankets. Shibata says “No no I finally got comfortable, Tanuma, come on,” but Tanuma is moving, too. Ogata says, in a kind, careful voice, “Natsume, of course we know you.” “Not everything,” Takashi insists, feeling his heart start to move a little faster. “You don’t— you don’t know everything.”

BLCD Review: Unmei no Tsugai ga Omae da Nante
Tumblr media
Title: Unmei no Tsugai ga Omae da Nante (運命の番がお前だなんて)
Author/Artist: Haruta
Release Date: 2021/06/25
Cast: 
Okitsu Kazuyuki x Masuda Toshiki
Taito Ban
Tsuchida Reiou
Kobayashi Kousuke
Matsuura Yoshiyuki
Tanaka Tomomi
Watanabe Yoshimi
Synopsis: Free-spirited omega Shishikura and straight-laced alpha Kotani have disliked each other since middle school, so neither are pleased to learn they will both be working at the same company. Shishikura is even less thrilled when he discovers that he and Kotani are a fated pair! The two men take verbal swipes at each other every chance they get, yet still wind up in bed together again and again. Both chalk it up to biology and refuse to admit that deeper feelings might be involved, and Shishikura begins looking into other potential marriage partners. Will this tsundere couple ever get their act together, or will destiny be derailed by their own stubbornness?
Review Proper
Finally, the thing I mistook for Yukyuu Omega is here. *exhale*
If y’all know me, you’ll know that I absolutely abhor omegaverse (you can thank Kurui Naku Ban Beta, Sayonara Alpha, and Erito for that). Literally everything you could do in an abo has already been done. I don’t see a point in making more of these. Mangakas: Okay, let’s do domsub instead But hey, am I not a Okitsu whore? No. Anyway, even though I was excited about listening to this, I knew I was going to hate Kotani because he was an asshole. 
There’s only one thing worse than an abo.
AN ABO WITH AN ASSHOLE CHARACTER.
But, in spite of myself, I actually enjoyed this. 
Tumblr media
I’m having a moral crisis, help.
JK. Unmei no Tsugai doesn’t sell itself as a serious plot, so it shouldn’t be taken seriously either. Unlike our deep try-hards. I mean, it’s your pretty run-of-the-mill dumbass gets an excuse to fuck the asshole, falls in love with him, the asshole becomes more of an asshole, the dumbass drags a third party to make him jealous, the asshole becomes more of an asshole, poor third party gets led on and dumped, and the dumbass and asshole finally gets together without the asshole even apologizing, medetashi, medetashi. But the way that Haruta wrote and movic set it all up was fantastic. 
Now this is how you do comedy. I initially had some doubts ‘cause the narration in the first track was kind of strange lmao. It went from medieval style to traditional Japanese and it was narrated by someone who sounded like a news broadcaster wth. Is this a densetsu??? The CD later turned out to be a whole vocal flex for Massuu and Okitsu ‘cause goddamn. 
Massuu, for starters, used a tone slightly above his Hirokuni but slightly smoother. I haven’t read the manga before, so I wasn’t sure how things were going to go, so I was very surprised that he pulled his shounen (aka his Kirishima) voice later! I loved it. His changes were dynamic, chaotic, and very fitting for Shishikura. AND! AND! JESUS CHRIST HIS SEXAY MONOLOGUES!!! HELLO??? WAS HE PAID EXTRA??? Y’ALL GOTTA HEAR ALL THE BEDROOM SUBJUGATIONS!!! I didn’t know he had that in him tbh. I was just blown away. He has never bottomed this chaotically before, if I recall correctly. It’s evident that he had a lot of fun recording this (as did Okitsu as per the cast talk) and I love that! It makes me wish this had a second volume so we could hear more of this kind of Massuu.
Onto Okitsu,
Tumblr media
Y’all already know what I’m gonna say. 
Is my bias over Okitsu making me like this? Who knows? But it’s undeniable that my man has, once again, slayed this role. I won’t talk about his perfect performance much ‘cause I’ve already run out of praises years ago, so just know that if you’re not an Okitsu bitch by now, you’re really missing out lmao.
ALSO
I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT WE’VE WITNESSED OKITSU PLAY TWO BETAS, A PRETEND OMEGA, AND NOW FINALLY AN ALPHA!!! We don’t count the disrespect that was Shounen no Kyoukai
Tumblr media
-Chesk, 25, hates abos but will listen if Okitsu’s in it
Anywho, these two also had great chemistry with each other. They’re more or less in sync during their mattress mambos, so I really wasn’t spazzing out during Smoky Nectar. I was thinking maybe I was asking for too much. 😂 Idk what to feel, knowing that this is Fatgum x Kirishima
In conclusion, get this. Get this if you’re a fan of the series and abo in general. And if you dislike abo like me, this still is worth getting if you’re an Okitsu/Massuu stan. If you want to see just what makes voice actors good, you’ll be in the right place. As for those who want to read the manga along with the BLCD, it is doable, but bear in mind that there is added and cut dialogue. I only have the magazine releases, and I’ve noticed that the narrations are rearranged, so do try buying the tank if you can (reading the Chrima release with it is doable too tho). Gosh, I really wish this wasn’t an abo lmao. Anyway, I’m afraid there aren’t a lot of gag abos like this out there, so I wouldn’t be able to recommend anything similar. Go Kashikomarimashita: Destiny and Re:birth for more Okitsu tho

ugh just remembered when I was in that useless fucking social services job hunting workshop.... and the presenter, when she called me for my resume consult basically told me I was liar when I had the usual complaint that "oh just about EVERY entry level job where I am is DEMANDING that I have anywhere between 2 to 5 years experience already before applying"... and instead of confirming that is the problem with the job market today, she instead condescended to me saying "oh no honey that's bc they're HIGH LEVEL admin jobs demanding that and NOT ENTRY LEVEL. learn to read."
actually, no, sandra (not her real name). they're NOT high-level jobs. they're run of the mill front desk reception or call centre jobs, which are also basic data entry jobs.... that only 20 years ago (probably) would've been a walk-in off the street and be employed tomorrow thing, or NO experience needed, we'll train you!" type shit if you applied online.
now these positions are DEMANDING 2 to 5 years experience AND sometimes a combined traineeship for 1-2 years in business admin, pr that you ALREADY have the tafe cert III in business admin, bc they don't want you wasting time studying or waste their time training you. that's why I keep applying for traineeships bc half of these positions already come with one, or "the chance to take on a traineeship" which means, "we'll make you do it anyway and not reduce your workload to accommodate study time". if the job is advertised as a full-time position without the traineeship attached in the title (like a junior admin officer job or something that i've applied for at a local lawyer before).
just. I hated how dismissive this woman was all around. I know I should probs complain tk social services about her, but idk if anything would actually happen. and plus she'd be all like "oh everyone else in that class loved me, why don't you? just keep vibrating at 70htz in loathing and resentment and GET NO OPPORTUNITIES EVER bc of that. why did my teaching not get the IMPORTANCE of vibrating at 500htz ie. LOVE AND PEACE AND ACCEPTANCE is the ONLY thing that'll give you abundance and opportunities, through to you????"
uh maybe bc I see job hunting as a practical thing and not all the batshit reiki shit that I like in asmr for entertainment.... and the vision board mumbo jumbo of self-help internet is great coming from youtubers like Anna akana.... but NOT in a jobhunting working shop.... where you're guilting people about this mumbo jumbo is exactly why they'll never employed ever again. and esp since my old workplace tried to fire me for "ruining the positive family vibe of this workplave bc you rolled your eyes at me twice and are sarcastic from time to time 😥" during my performance meeting in November 2022. so obvs, I'll refuse to take that side of it seriously.
anyway my point was originally that im pissed of that this woman insisted that entry level jobs that are advertising 2 to 5 years experience aren't "entry level jobs, they're high level." when she was posed as an "employment expert" for this course.
no. they're NOT high-level jobs the bulk of the time. they're fucking run of the mill data entry which really only requires minimum skills in microsoft office and admin etc and a professional phone manner etc.... but instead they're asking for 2-5 years experience and intermediate to advanced microsoft office skills (or google suite etc) bc they want the applicant to do 25 jobs in place of 7 different people. which is shit I should be able to do with an arts degree. you're the one who really knows nothing.
but instead they want to drag me through another whole ass certificate 3 course and ANOTHER traineeship bc apparently an arts degree and a years worth of actual solid office experience isn't enough to man phones, do data entry, do front office reception and whatever dumbass shit "done with minimal supervision superhero" tasks they write in the job description on seek et al

New Naruto story!
I've been plotting out an arranged marriage story for Naruto & Sasuke and finally got a little snippet written up. The story is tentatively titled "It's Hard To Say "I Do", When I Don't". Here's a little snippet of what I have planned, so enjoy!
Naruto could tell that his best friend/secret crush was in a foul mood, if his perpetual dark scowl and angry mutterings were any indication.  “Something the matter, Sasuke?  Whatever it is, it seems like it’s really pissed you off.”
“My parents just dropped a bomb out of nowhere!”  Sasuke exclaimed, his black eyes narrowing in remembered anger.  “Apparently, they’d arranged a marriage for me with the kid of one of their friends.  What the fuck?!  How archaic can you get?  Like I want to get married to some fucking dumbass I don’t even know…or want to know, for that matter!”  He smirked before adding snidely, “Probably ugly as fuck, too, which is why their parents had to arrange a marriage for them.”
Naruto’s blue eyes widened at Sasuke’s words, hurt seeping into his heart.  Did Sasuke even know it was Naruto he was talking about?  He started to doubt what his parents had suggested as he witnessed Sasuke’s reaction.  Before he had a chance to think about what he was saying, he replied, “So is that what you honestly think about me, Sasuke?  I thought I was your friend, but you think I’m a loser now?”
Sasuke’s reaction was instantaneous.  “You?!  You’re the one they’re setting me up with?  Are you fucking kidding me?”  He seemed disgusted at the prospect of it being Naruto who he’d marry.  “How long have you known about this?!”  He accused the blond.  “You knew all this time and didn’t say anything!”
Naruto rushed to defend himself.  “It’s not like that at all, Sasuke!  My parents just told me about their decision!  I honestly thought you knew since you hadn’t mentioned it before now.”  His mouth tightened in a thin line as he heard Sasuke snort incredulously.  “It’s the truth.  I’m not lying to you.”
Sasuke sneered at Naruto’s words.  “Yeah,” he replied mockingly, “I’m so sure it’s the truth.  Are you so hard up for someone to be with you in a relationship that you had to beg Mommy and Daddy to set up this pity marriage?  Pathetic…just like you are.  Here’s a hint, Uzumaki – I’m not interested in you, never will be, and I sure as fuck don’t want to marry you.  Do yourself and me a favor and just stay out of my life permanently.”  Shoving Naruto to the side, uncaring as the blond was slammed into his locker, he stalked off leaving a heartbroken Naruto in his wake.
Naruto could only stand there, stunned, as he watched Sasuke walk away.  He stubbornly blinked back the tears that formed in the corner of his eyes.  The blond refused to give the bastard the satisfaction of knowing he’d made him cry.  He was just glad the halls were deserted at this time of day so there weren’t any witnesses to his humiliation.  It stung to know that was how Sasuke felt about him.  Not to mention that he thought so little of Naruto to just accuse him like he had.  Needing someone to talk to, he pulled out his phone, fingers already texting Sakura.  He smiled softly when he saw her reply that she’d meet him at his home.  As he walked to his car, he mulled over what he needed to do.  First, he needed to discuss things with his parents.  Their fantasy idea of him marrying Sasuke was never going to happen.  Second, Naruto didn’t want to stay in his current high school.  Day after day of being ostracized by Sasuke as if he didn’t exist?

right before your eyes i’m breaking || Max x Lucas
Tumblr media
word count: 1.4k
warnings/tags: season 4 spoilers!!, angst, canonical character death, break-up, kissing, grief, mourning, complicated feelings about all of the above, mentions of billy, max-centric
available on Ao3
a/n: the timeline of max and lucas’ break up felt a little unclear to me in the show, i couldn’t tell if it was just before the season started or if it was before that, but from the distance between them i felt that it had to have been longer. so this is my take on that! title is, unsurprisingly, from a taylor swift song. i hope you enjoy it, feel free to let me know your thoughts :)
Tumblr media
Max breaks up with Lucas over one sentence.
It’s a joke he makes on New Year’s Eve, a one-liner. Her stepfather had vanished at the beginning of December, and she’d assumed he didn’t want to be around for Christmas without Billy. She’d known, from the moment she’d seen him angrily throw his luggage into his car, that he wouldn’t come back. Her mom hadn’t— Her mom hadn’t seemed to get it just then. She’d started to drink while looking out the window a week after he’d left.
Max hoped she’d stop soon.
Her friends were a nice oasis in the middle of her fucked up family life, most of the time. Teasing Dustin because him and his girlfriend were so absurdly adorable. Arguing with Mike Wheeler who just couldn’t stop being a dumbass for five seconds. And, of course, being with Lucas.
Lucas.
Lucas whose smile made her heart skip a beat, Lucas who she sometimes scowled at other girls over, Lucas who got her presents every time they fought like that was the reason why she took him back, Lucas who could make her laugh without even trying.
He’d snuck into her room though the window that night. She wasn’t sure how he’d escaped his parents’ watchful eyes, and she had complicated feelings about seeing him.
Because the truth was, the second she was alone, she just— crumbled. Walking past her mom, passed out on the sofa, and in front of Billy’s old room, which her stepdad had never gotten around to empty before he left, was all it took.
She’d started not leaving her room when she was home, taking as many snacks with her as she could, just because she can’t take it.
So she has to compose herself real quick when Lucas knocks on her window and jumps in with an impressive form. The hours of training with the basketball gym seem to be paying off.
“You could call before you come here, stalker,” is the first thing she says, even though there’s a hint of a smile she can’t control tugging at the corner of her lips.
“I did,” Lucas protests. “I’ve called twice today, but I think your mom just hung up immediately. Is everything okay with her?”
Max feels herself paling at the question. She deflated for just a second when he’d mentioned her mom’s behavior, but the question means she doesn’t have time to process any of it. She’d rather die then act weak, even in front of him. So she just shrugs, forces a smile that doesn’t reach her eyes.
“Yeah! Yeah, everything’s just— totally fine. She’s just… waiting for an important call. Probably didn’t want the line to be occupied in case she missed it.”
Lucas knows she’s lying. She knows he knows. But he just sighs, nods like he believes her, and she’s infinitely thankful for that. He puts a hand on her waist, fingers brushing against the skin just where her shirt rides up, and it sends a delicious feeling through her entire body. It’s not a new feeling exactly, but it’s one they haven’t gotten around to exploring all that much, and she relishes it for now.
He grins as he pulls her close, and she wraps her arms around his neck, looking at him almost daringly. He tastes like mint when he kisses her, and she knows it’s because he chewed gum on the way over, precisely to prepare for that situation. She also knows he started doing it because she refused to kiss him after he’d eaten cheese once, and she could tease him about it, but for now it manages to melt even her cold cold heart and she doesn’t.
It’s then that he says it. Just a few words, mumbled against her lips, that she barely registers in the moment.
“At least now we don’t have to worry about someone throwing me out the window.”
She chokes a brief laugh, because Lucas always used to be so careful around her house, avoiding Billy and her stepdad like the plague.
It starts eating at her later on, when she’s alone though. Lucas and her whispered New Year’s wishes to each other, and she fell asleep with the comforting weight of his arm around her waist. She woke up when he took it off and pressed a kiss against her temple, leaving to get back home, where he hopefully wouldn’t get in too much trouble with his parents. Erica usually covered for them though, and she had agreed to make him pay half price if he was with Max, which meant she’d probably get a call the next day to make sure that’s where he was.
Erica was fucking cool.
The second Lucas leaves, though, the happiness fades, and the comments comes back.
She knows he didn’t mean anything by it, knows that, even if she’s pretty sure he wasn’t saddened in any way by Billy’s death, he would never, ever rejoice over it in front of her. It could have been directed at her stepdad, and, well, it’s not like he was wrong.
But it eats away at her. She can’t stop thinking about it. That night, it keeps her from sleeping.
Lucas notices that something’s wrong soon after that, but she’s— She’s failing at keeping up her usual facade. The way she looks and feels at home— It’s starting to show through the cracks. She’s apathetic, quiet. She knows people can tell. She knows that when Mike sits next to her and their shoulders brush, it’s because he’s trying to give her some comfort, and it works. She knows that when Dustin tries to show her some stupid thing on his radio and introduces her to Suzy, it’s because he hopes it will help her, and it’s sweet.
But it’s just not enough. It can’t be. Nothing can be.
She keeps thinking about the joke.
She tells herself that that’s why she breaks up with Lucas, less than a month after that. Because he’s dumb and insensitive and he just doesn’t get it and he’s not what she needs right now, she doesn’t need a relationship, she needs therapy, and these things are mutually exclusive because you need to love yourself before you love someone else and—
She lets the static fill her head like that when she says the words.
“I think it’s time we end— this. Us.”
He must have seen it coming, she tells herself. He can’t be surprised, after the month they’ve had.
Still, she averts her eyes so she doesn’t see the hurt on his face.
“Are you serious right now? You’re breaking up with me?”
His tone tells her he knows it’s not one of their normal break-ups.
“People change, Lucas. If you didn’t notice I’ve changed, that’s on you, ‘cause I think it’s been pretty obvious.”
It’s a mean jab and she knows it. He doesn’t deserve this. Seeing him wince makes her stare at the floor once more.
“And don’t even think about getting me some thing to get me back or whatever. I can’t be bought.”
That’s mean too. Implying that his previous gestures were insincere when she knows that to be untrue. It brings tears in her eyes, how mean she’s being, but she has no trouble fighting them back. She’s not the victim here.
She’s the perpetrator.
“C’mon, Max, don’t— Don’t shut me out like this. Please. Just— just tell me what’s wrong! I know something’s wrong. I know— I know we can fix this!”
Lucas’ voice is breaking and trembling. If she looks up, she thinks she’ll see him crying. She probably should do that, should have the decency of looking into his eyes, but she’s a pathetic coward and she simply doesn’t have the courage to do that.
“Are we done here? I have somewhere to be.”
She spins around and walks out haughtily. Lucas doesn’t say anything, and she’s relieved that she can’t hear him sob. Maybe… Maybe he knows too. Knows this is for the best. For him as well.
She keeps telling herself that it’s because of the joke. Because it shows how little he understands her and the emotions that she’s going through, because she doesn’t want to burden him with it, because it shows that they’ve just grown to be too different.
But deep, deep down, she knows it’s not because of the joke.
It’s because she laughed.
What kind of person laughs at that?
Not one that deserves to be happy, that’s for sure.

how did you figure out that you’re nonbinary and that you specifically use they/them pronouns? /genq
oh okay so figuring out gender was a ‘casper is stupid for 17 entire years’ situation.
i basically came out of the cradle insisting that it was cringe and terrible of my parents to think of me as a girl. i was, emphatically, a Pokémon obsessed little guy since i could form entire sentences. but it was 2002, and frankly i was more concerned with how far i could spit and collecting spiders off the bushes to be worried about it. my parents (bless) were 100% cool with getting my clothes in the boys section & letting me do whatever i wanted (except get ice cream from the ice cream van every day. their one and only instance of homophobia 😔) so i didn’t really suffer, especially, beyond scowling at people in school when they dared to refer to me. 
it was pretty clear to me when i was 11 that having a cursed body was, indeed, going to be a curse. not worth mentioning how terrible and evil 11-14 was for me physically, tho to be fair i also took up swordfighting then so swings and roundabouts.
but yeah, around when i was 9 i knew there was a huge massive problem but then my mom got cancer (multiple myeloma) and… yeah gender crisis took a backseat while we watched her almost die about three times (pulmonory embolism, stem-cell transplant, getting shingles with no immune system bc chemo). my grandmother looked after me while Hospital.
unhelpful to the anti-trans-kids-existing demons bc she was also like intensely indulgent of my refusal to wear anything but my brazil football jersey. she let me eat nothing but artificial cheese slices put on a single slice of white bread and then microwaved because i had the massive trump card of not being allowed to see my mother for almost six months. i think she was grateful that i seemed to find the whole situation too serious to cry over. my best friend was a boy & he was pretty willing to be like ‘ok cool. ur not a girl. can we go on the trampoline?’ 
& then, when things calmed down & i was about 16/17, i had come out as gay (good for me) about two years before & then i realised i was oh fuck A Bit More Complicated than that i spent a while agonising over it. really a long walks on the beach pondering my gay ass type deal.
but then, just when i was kind of starting to vibe with being enby, I got really really sick, which lasted aboooout 5/6 years where it was just an old school platforming game but titled ‘casper tries not to die while trying to get a degree & two masters’). very do not pass go do not collect 200 of the universe to Do That. but hey. 
so it was around Pandemic when i finally got the brainspace to actually think, & i realised that i was definitely trans, probably nonbinary. i experimented for a while with different pronouns. realised my ‘dumbass nickname everyone has to call me’ was my ACTUAL NAME (never underestimate my stupidity and ignorance) & yeah at first i was thinking of going the hormones path (do not ever please god don’t get me started on how hard that is in this stupid bastard country. 5 years waiting period, on average. have to get diagnosed formally by a team of psychiatrists with what is characterised as a ‘mental illness’. have to ‘live’ - as Some Fucker sees it - as your ‘chosen’ gender for like two years AND be out to basically everybody - realistic and safe i say sarcastically i say while looking into the camera like i'm on the office - oh look i got started. anyway. bullshittery)
but eventually i realised huh nope i just wanted top surgery (same fucking deal with the health service tho) & for people to use they/them generally (i am not too fussed w/ pronouns for myself tho. like, a lot of my friends use he/him because frankly i deserve it most of the time with the himbo behaviour. professionally i insist on they/them for consistency. i get congnitive dissonance with she/her as in i get a weird shock & want to laugh & wonder who the fuck they’re talking about for a sec before i realise it’s me. but like, miffed too much i am not).
also gender is a big pendulum for me it’s an elliptic orbit sometimes for a few weeks i’m like a feminine guy and other times i feel like a masculine gay & sometimes i feel like the autism creature (bc i AM an autism creature, always). 
but i have, essentially, felt nonbinary always. trust me i have a pic of blue-eyed blond 5y/o me sitting on my bed in my Pokemon-themed room wearing a Manchester United jersey and holding my PS2 controller in my hands with a profoundly vacant and himboish expression on my face. it did fully take me 17 whole years to have my ‘oh’ moment about it, but a lot of that was profoundly indulgent parents who were you can’t even imagine how determined to not raise me the way they were raised - which meant, apparently, that if i wanted to be a spider-collecting, bug obsessed pokémon-fixated little guy who kept snapping branches off the bamboo and fashioning makeshift swords out of them - well then that was the creature they’d send to school every day. 
i think the tldr here is: casper stupid. gender a concept.

Unwilling Resemblance - Andy Barclay x (fem) Reader Oneshot
Tumblr media
Masterlist
Word Count + 2.500
Pairing: Andy Barclay x (fem) Reader. 
Warnings: AU where Andy adopts the Wheeler boys, Junior lives and Nica gets away from the canon destiny we know. 
Summary: Andy gets accidentally confronted with his biggest fear since that night in the mental hospital and you do your best to comfort him. 
Notes: @losersclubisms​. I SUCK SO BADLY AT INVENTING TITLES! Literally spent half an hour trying to slap one at the top of this post lol. Once you will get to read this it is most likely you will recognize every little hint of inspiration making me come up with this. 
You didn't realize the mistake when you were dressing up before leaving with your boyfriend for a simple shopping trip. Andy didn’t say anything, so you had to figure it out by yourself and you eventually did while looking at your reflection in the nearest window of an empty car at the market’s parking lot. Checking yourself out every once in a while was a compulsion when you were going out with him, even for the most mundane of reasons. It would simply happen because you were in some permanent state of crushing with the man you loved, always wondering if you were looking good for him since for you he was the most handsome guy around.
The look you picked for that casual occasion wasn’t bad itself, but the vibes you began to perceive on it made wearing it a bit awkward. Did you have to pick those pants, with that coat in THAT order? How couldn’t you see it before? It was the worst fashion fail you had made over the course of the entire history of your relationship with Andy. He was so nice of not saying a thing about it, but then it became shamefully obvious to you and it was visibly affecting your mood. 
Your boyfriend only noticed that something was upsetting you because of that reaction. It had to be about your appearance or, otherwise, you wouldn’t be obsessively staring at the crystal and moving around. 
“ What’s wrong, babe? Is it one of those days when you aren’t feeling good about yourself? Do you need me to remind you of how much I love your body?” 
That was Andy, your always amazing man. His naive guess made you feel even worse. . 
“ It’s not that, but thanks for the offer.” You teased before explaining yourself. “ Don’t I look a bit like human Chucky dressed like this?” 
The dilemma you were presenting was quite unbelievable to hear, he would have never associated you with any images of his arch nemesis. 
“ Wait, WHAT? Is that what got you so distracted?” 
“ C’mon, it’s obvious! I’m the dumbass who didn’t see it when i should. “ You added, with frustration. '' I look like Nica when possessed, that winter at the asylum.” 
“ I still can't believe you could convincingly impersonate a therapist like that, I only hope not to have been a bad patient.” He joked in return.“ I think I owe Nica a big apology for almost shooting at her, but I guess that if she had him inside long enough she must understand why.” 
“ Don’t change the topic, this is awful. Absolutely disastrous, not only because I could be triggering bad memories for you…. I refuse to share anything with that narcissistic phantom parasite. “ 
Andy enjoyed the intensity of your hateful description, immediately considering stealing it for possible use in his inevitable next encounter with Chucky. 
“ I am alright, it is not similar enough to be weird.” 
“ It still is to me, I can’t stay like this.” Your frustration was quite a show, the issue bothered you more than him.” I like Nica as herself, I would be happy to know we share some likes fashion wise .. but this? Sorry not sorry, yikes, no. I feel like a Chucky.” 
It was hard to believe he was seeing you losing your mind over some pants and a coat, but he sensed that it had to be about his perception of you. It implied a bit of how you were still excited of catching him looking at you, the same levels of lovely infatuation of the first months back when you began dating. It was as if you were a schoolgirl hanging out with her crush through some random excuse she improvised, overworrying about the mundanity of an outfit she didn’t plan for that use. Andy never imagined he could be loved, wanted, adored in the way you were showing consistently. The honeymoon phase seemed infinite in your wonderful relationship. 
“ Will we have to get you new clothes just because you don’t want me to see you in that? Even when I know you didn’t do it on purpose and you know that waiting to get back home to change is a perfectly understandable reaction I would support? “ 
Despite it being close to the motivation he was imagining, he was never completely ready to hear the confession of your full reasoning in actual words. 
“ I just want to look pretty for you because I find you so incredibly handsome all the time. “ You excused yourself, opening up on something that was truly obvious to you. “ There is no moment of the day where I wouldn’t be thinking about it if I stop whatever I am doing to look at you. When you are in mismatching pajamas on a lazy morning, when you wear your fanciest suit to take me on a special date or when you are in the regular ones that let me know you were Chucky hunting. On the simplest pair of jeans and your favorite t-shirt.. or completely naked while you let me wear it. All the fucking time, Andy. It never stops amazing me, so I can’t stand the idea of resembling someone you hate.” 
His mind went blank, not a single articulable thought that could be turned into an answer occurred to him immediately. He felt so full of your love, looking at you like a lost fool incapable of processing those feelings. 
“ Alright, perhaps I didn't spot the problem because I can’t see shit past how stunning you are. “ He finally answered an instant afterwards. “ If you don’t like that coat anymore, I’m sure we can search in the mess of my car and find something I must have left there. Let’s go get the groceries first and after that we deal with it.” 
The reassurance was exactly what you needed, a proof of how your unfortunate outfit didn’t ruin his mood. Once you got that, the relaxation made you think about playing out your uncomfortable self perceptions in some way that could be beneficial to both. Using your awkwardness in a weird attempt to make him laugh in order to feel better. 
It started subtly, with an impersonation of a manly walk in direction to the store. Andy figured out right then what you were trying to do, but he didn’t stop you because he was used to seeing that coming from other persons he deeply cared for. It was the same dark comedy style of Junior and Jake, they had their own copying routine taking turns to impersonate the doll and his human wife. Their impro act lacked a third integrant willing to play Nica’s part. That poor woman had enough of playing Chucky for Tiffany in order to survive during her captive time, so it was only the Wheelers making fun of the dysfunctional marriage. Thinking about how happy the boys would be finding you as the missing piece in their jokes made him smile more than the act itself. 
“ Hidey fucking Ho, Andy! Did ya miss me, pal?” He heard you saying at the entrance, coughing afterwards due to the exaggerated attempt to make your voice deeper. That made you break character and it deviated into a different territory, circumstantially forgetting you were playing Nica as Chucky. “ My bad, your bitch is a fucking nightmare to be inside… but you already know that, don’t ya? “ 
“ For fuck’s sake! A you Chucky is off limits, (y/n)” 
The sudden shift on his reception alarmed you because he was laughing with you right after that. 
“ Ohh,shit, sorry. “ You immediately stopped. “ I thought it wouldn’t make a difference. Either Nica or me, it’s still girl Chucky.” 
“ I’m not in love with Nica.” He sweetly reminded you.” Do you think it never comes to my mind? You were there that night, I had the bad luck of finding out what was happening a day you were coming over and you didn’t accept not following me. “ 
He made a brief pause and you felt as if your heart would have stopped to the sight of how troubled he was. 
“ I feel horrible for how relieved i was because he seemed to hate her more than me, it could have been you and I wouldn’t have known what to do. He knows what you mean to me, I would never be able to pull the trigger if he hides behind your face. It’s too convenient for him and that scares me.”  
You stopped in your tracks, ready to hush away the horrible thought you accidentally brought to his overwhelmed mind. 
“ Love, Chucky will never want me. I’m sure of that, do you want to know why? My body would be his most uncomfortable experience ever.” 
You were referring to the desolated yet quite lovely situation you faced some nights before, when a wave of overwhelming cramps at the start of your period got you awake for hours and he stayed up in bed with you as your comforting company. 
“ I threw him into an industrial fan once, I don’t think your heavy periods would stop him.” 
“ That’s because you never experienced one before, but he must have gone through one at some point on his last body and I can assure you my love that the asshole must have suffered. “ You insisted, in a vengeful tone, then proceeded into what you considered that could be calming reassurance for him. 
“ In my body I would be able to tell you exactly how much but, menstruation talk aside, that would be my battle plan. Fight for consciousness is a possession cliche, that’s exactly what Chucky would expect me to do. Instead of that, I would manifest making my body a defensive architecture zone. It would be impossible to habitat in, all through subconscious attacks. It’s what doctors would call psychosomatic symptoms, shit that Chucky can’t control because he commands the consciousness when he possesses someone. He tries to kill you in my body? I give him a sneeze attack that would ruin his focus. He eats something spicy, I give him diarrhea that would have him in the bathroom for days. The periods will be so painful that he would beg for mercy, I will make him collapse on the floor and scream like crazy until he cries like a baby. Even when the worst week would be over there are other things I would still be able to try from the inside:  migraines, stomach aches, intestinal malfunction, fatigue, uncontrollable muscular cramps anywhere, hair loss, stress induced breathing problems making him unable to smoke even one single goddamn cigarette . He would have to choose between leaving my body or living in chronic pain because I am that much of a stubborn bitch.” 
The vengeful speech reached its objective, replacing the worries with some pleasing thoughts about the suffering of Chucky. The feral passion in which you were speaking about that was too much of his taste to remain ignored and he had to admit yours was an interesting tactic. 
" Damn, I love you so fucking much. " 
You smirked, a playful display of how proud that made you feel. 
" You drive me crazy, handsome. I'm so in love with you and it's all your fault. " 
You could tell by the look in his eyes that he wanted to kiss you, but you teased him a little bit just because you felt like doing it. 
" This whole thing made me remember that I gotta buy more pads. See you later, I'm gonna head to that section first and catch up with you afterwards." 
There was no way for you to get away with your mischief escaping him. Andy held you close before you could walk ahead and his líps were over yours as soon as he got his hands on you.
Whenever you would split to get separated stuff on particular thoughts would usually wander his mind while doing his part. Looking forward to that moment in which you would smile out of surprise at the sight of him. He liked to invent new detours on the way to you on those two or three places you would regularly buy things from. Doing it was just about feeling that brightness in your face fill his heart with joy. He loved to give you one of those mundane surprises and feel rewarded with your amazement. 
That time the one he brought out of you was so lovely that he felt like forgetting of the world around. For as much as you cared for whatever clothes you were wearing, he was feeling the luckiest guy alive just from seeing you smile like that for him. 
When you later remembered the deal you two stated he let you search on the car as he would finish accommodating what you bought inside the trunk. There was not much left to do and he finished a brief moment before you, choosing to sit on top of the closed trunk waiting for a possible eventual call for help. There was no need for it, you came to his encounter wearing one of his jackets. 
" Do you feel comfy now?" He teased you while seeing you advance closer in his direction. 
You didn't stop until you were standing in between his spreaded thighs. 
" I feel all yours, it's what I love the most."
Once you arrived at his place you were supposed to decide if you were going to get rid of the coat, but you didn't have much time for that. Junior received both of you alone, explaining to Andy that his cousin was out on a date with his boyfriend. Among the bits of small talk you got to do with him, it occurred to you bringing up the anecdote of your dressing coincidence in complete unawareness of what you were doing. 
By the time Andy came back from his bedroom fully changed into more comfortable clothes, you were already joking with the mischievous teen. He heard the sound of strong chuckling coming out of the boy and some commentary on your part. 
" Fuck, I can't get it ríght! Why is it so hard? He is a freaking doll, how does he get such strong vocal chords?"
" One more take, try not to sound like one of Santa's elfs this time. " Junior was mocking you.
You threw a high pitched cackle, what you boyfriend coming from behind you guessed was your own attempt to imitate Chucky's horrific laughing. It was a complete fail, the most adorable sound he ever heard. 
He trapped you between his arms, hugging your waist from behind, and you yelped from the surprise because you were too focused on your performance to notice him approaching. 
" I can't, she sounds like a Smurf. " The boy who was your main audience commented to him between his own laughing. 
" See, Andy? Junior just helped me discover one more reason why possessing me is not a profitable movement for Chucky. Imagine if he feels about to taste his irrefutable victory over you and then tries to cackle with this voice? It would kill the mood before he could get to kill you. " 
You were really into finding silly little details to take his fear away and he loved you for it.
