Man, may i request for Himeko or Kafka (or both) with a serious and profissional reader who is a sucker for affection in general. like, the reader is very professional, but just give them affection and boom! Reader will be the shyest, but happiest, person in the world. and it would be a bonus if the reader was like a teddy bear/marshmallow for hugs. if you don't feel comfortable or just don't want to write, feel free to ignore this request!
KISS YOU EACH MORNING, WITH STRAWBERRY SKIES.
CHARACTER/S: HIMEKO, KAFKA
WARNING/S: GN READER, READER IS A STELLARON HUNTER (KAFKA), SLIGHTLY SUGGESTIVE AND POSSESIVE (KAFKA)
NOTE: IM SO SORRY FOR THE LATE RESPOND😭, BUT THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS REQUEST! THIS IS SO CUTE.and the fact that reader becomes a mess with just a hug is so WKWKM OKAY ANYWAY!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Himeko always see you as a caring, passionate, and the most adorable lover that has a sweet side that is only reserved for her and only her.
It only took one glance for the people to know that you're a serious and straightforward person. Even if someone invites you to do something informal, you would always politely decline the request.
Other people often see you as a super straightforward and bland, since you don't associate in any silly happenings/shenanigans anywhere.
If someone told himeko that you, her lover is just.. too serious formal is too much, she would simply chuckle and tell them that this was just really how you are, as the red head knows you best.
Only she knows that one simple kiss on the cheek would have you completely stuttering and flustered right away.
One time at the express, she asked you to fetch her a cup, since she'll be brewing some coffee. After you quickly gave her the cup (that you got with a teaspoon), she thanked you and kissed you on the cheek. She thought you got a fever because of how red you are after.
"Oh! You even got it with a teaspoon, thank you so much as always, my dearest— hold on.. are you alright? You're so red, let me check your temperature.."
If someone came inside her room, they would only see the oh so serious and formal person with the red head, clinging your arms over her waist, while holding her hands just enjoying how her heartbeat sounds, along with her intakes of breaths.
Himeko loves hugging you. She likes too comfortably rub her thumb along your back while still hugging you. Everytime she hugs you, it's like embracing a big fluffy marshmallow that is so comofrtable and soft.
She likes the way your whole face becomed red as a tomato at the small affecfion, the red head thinks it's adorable and so cute of you. How a serious person that does not look like they are not capable of loving is now being so flustered and gazing at her so lovingly.
"Oh, my darling.. how did I even made you fall for me? You seem to just get.. more adorable every day that passes. And I love you for being like that."
Tumblr media
At first, she thought you're one of those boring and too serious people, as you do not engage in any unformal/inappopriate doings.
But when you two got to know eachother, her idea of you quickly changed.
After her first meeting with you, she now finds you as someone so adorable.
Just like always, this woman TEASES you to the core every single day about you being so flustered just by a single affection from her. There won't be a single day without a dozens of tease from her.
But when someone else other than her teases and makes fun of your seriousness, they would suddenly disappear tomorrow morning. Huh, I wonder why..
She likes holding your hands ANYWHERE, and she would amusely chuckle as you try your hardest not to get flustered you failed miserably, yet your face already looked identical to a tomato.
Always clinging to you, at the headquarters, on a mission, anywhere. Expect to feel her arm wrapped around your other arm while walking, as she knows you loved doing these.
WILL cling to you when you two are not on a mission. You would still get so blushy and flustered, even though she did this a million times already.
When she hugs you, she would sometimes squeeze you tightly while slowly inhaling your sweet smell, as she cant get enough of how you feel like a big, tall teddy plush. She just can't get enough of how fluffy and comofrtable you feel.
Will also call you MANY silly and goofy nicknames, like pookie wookie bear, cupcakie sugar booger, etc., just to see you get red at embarassment
"Hehe, is my pookie shrookie bear being so flustred again? You really are adorable.."
When you two finished fighting a couple of enemies from the antimatter legion, she would ALWAYS compliment you, even when it's just one of the easy types, just to see you try not to blush from the never ending compliments from her.
One time she kissed you in a secluded area, then continued to smooch you. Even when you're still flustered, you caught on and tried to deepen the kiss, almost resulting into a full make out session, not until she pulled back and then teased you for being so needy for her. You quickly looked away and find words to say while your mind is still hazy after what just happened, face red as ever.
"Aw.. you're that needy for me, darling? I was just teasing you. But worry not, we'll continue this later. Such a pity you can't see how red you are right now.."

karasu comforting overachiever!reader with a lot of anxiety?
my exams are around, ive cried 6x and had a mental breakdown in 3 days. and im a good student at heart but not on paper. im trying😭
take care! love❤️
I can relate to this sm, I promise myself that I’ll study but then it gets late n all I wanna do is sleep lmfao. But I hope you’re doing alright, love. Remember to drink lots of water and eat lots of food! And take breaks when studying so you don’t get headaches!
Sorry I posted this so late, but here it is.
Cw: crying, fluff, comfort, friends to lovers, cursing, not proofread. lmk if i missed any!
Wc: 1.1k
Overachiever!
Tumblr media
Karasu is like your best friend, he’s always been there for you and promises he always will. Even when he left for a program called Blue Lock, he still managed to talk to you. Especially when you were going through a nasty breakup with your ex. He has always been there for you.
Something Karasu noticed over the years of being your friend; you’re an overachiever and a perfectionist. You have to get good grades, it’s like it was hard-wired in your brain since you were a child. If you didn’t get a good grade, even on a test that was optional or didn’t have any impact on your overall grade, you would feel so ashamed and full of anxiety. You were afraid of your teachers hating you, honestly, you’re just afraid of authority figures. You would always try to hide your feelings behind a fake smile, and sometimes it worked. But this time it didn’t.
You were in your room studying, all day long. No matter how many times people tried to pester you, or ask you to take a break, you would decline and go back to studying. You needed to get a good grade. You had stayed up all night long studying and going over the crucial information that would be on the final.
So why? Why do you have an 84% on your final? Why isn’t it at 100? Other people congratulated you, saying that the test was really hard. But you know that Mia, the top student, got the perfect score without even trying.
You tried this year, you really did. You made a resolution that you would try your hardest this year; that you wouldn’t give up so easily like last year. And you know that bad habits die hard, but you were doing so well. Even though this isn’t your last year, you feel like you failed at school.
‘Take a deep breath. Failure is the one pathway to success.’ Karasu’s words came floating into your mind. But you could still feel the onslaught of the tears and the tightness of the pain in your chest. You tried to take a deep breath but it wasn’t enough, it felt like all the oxygen in the world just vanished.
You don’t know how you got home, all the memories of the people saying ‘Good job’ and ‘Don’t beat yourself up, you did better than me’ are the only ones you can remember. All you want to do is crawl into your bed and cuddle your stuffed bear while you cry. But you have to study more; you have to study for your next classes. You can’t just give up because of one class. Oh but how badly you want to.
A sudden knock on your door pulled you from your thoughts. “Come in.” You cringed at the crack in your voice, quickly you straightened your posture and pretended to be okay.
But all of that faux hope and happiness faded away when you saw the unmistakable blue eyes. The tears came rushing back, along with the shaky breaths.
Karasu walked over to your desk and smiled down at you. “Hey, just wanted to stop by,” his hand raised, revealing a bag with your favorite restaurant name. “I brought your favorite.” His voice died down, almost to a whisper when he saw your tears.
You quickly wiped them, but the red streaks were still there. He sighed and sat down on your bed. “It’s okay, Y/n. Stuff like this happens, don’t worry about it too much.” You shook your head. “No, I should worry about it,” he raised a brow. “Why?”
You felt a little agitated because he couldn’t understand. Of course he couldn’t, he’s always been the type of person to get good grades without even trying. Knowing him, he probably slept through most of his classes and still got a 95 or higher on his final. Typical Karasu.
“Because who would I be if I don’t have good grades? I know that grades don’t matter much in the world, but I’m the one who feels the shame. I’m the one who has to remember what it feels like to try your hardest and still fail.” You felt like pulling your hair out, breaking things, just something to ease your mind. To ease the pain.
He brings his hands up to your cheeks, squishing them a little which brings a smile to his face. “Remember what I always tell you. ‘Failure is a pathway to-’ ” “To success. I know that, but still,” You move your head, making him release his grip. “I don’t want to fail, I don’t want people to remember me as the person who always failed.” Your voice was almost higher than a whisper, but he still heard you loud and clear. Karasu could hear and feel the pain from your voice.
“You-” you release a shaky breath, trying to calm yourself down. “You wouldn’t understand.”
‘Ironic’ he thinks, you’re the one who’s not understanding. A simple grade doesn’t define who you are as a person.
“Y/n look at me.” He grabs your face, “You are doing your best, you’re trying your fucking hardest and I’m so proud of you for that. You’re way smarter than what people give you credit for.” You try to shake your head, but his grip on your jaw tightens. “No. I don’t want to hear you deny anything. You need to understand that it’s okay to fail, it’s okay to feel helpless after a bad grade. But it’s not okay to beat yourself up. Don’t worry too much about how this grade, which is a passing grade, will affect your future.”
Karasu pulls you in for a hug. You close your eyes and bury your face in his chest. “You’re in the present right now, not the future. And I’m sure the future you are a CEO; trust me I can see it.”
You both laugh at his words. You sniffle and look up at him, “thank you, I really needed that.” He nods his head; his eyes looking from your eyes to your lips. “Anytime, I mean it.”
This is what you expected, a lecture and comfort from Karasu. It’s what you wanted. But what you didn’t expect was his lips on yours. Before you could enjoy the moment, he pulled back and smiled down at you. “Safe to say that I think you return my feelings,” your eyes darting everywhere but his and your little nod was a good enough answer for him. “And as much as I want to kiss you again. Our food is getting cold.” He pulled you down onto the bed along with the bag of food. “Let’s eat.”

TO THE GIRL I LOVED
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
pairing: seonghwa x reader
masterlist
"To the girl I loved", an email he could never send to the person he loved the most. Was he wrong for not sending it?
Tumblr media
To: L/N Y/N <l/ny/[email protected]> From: Park Seonghwa <[email protected]> Subject: Why i couldn't stay. Date: April 8, 2024 Dear Y/N, I hope this email finds you well. I've been wrestling with my thoughts for quite some time now, trying to find the right words to express what's been weighing on my heart. As I sit down to write this, I realize that no amount of words can fully encapsulate the depth of my emotions, but please allow me to try. First and foremost, I want to extend my sincerest apologies for leaving you for my job. I know it must have been incredibly difficult for you, and for that, I am truly sorry. Please know that it was never my intention to hurt you or cause you any pain. When I made the decision to prioritize my career, I did so with the belief that it was the best choice for both of us, but now I see how wrong I was. The truth is, Y/N, leaving you was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. Every moment since then has been filled with regret and longing. I miss your laughter, your warmth, the way you light up a room with your smile. I miss our late-night conversations and the way you always knew just what to say to ease my worries. You were my rock, my confidante, my everything, and being without you has made me realize just how much you mean to me. I want you to know that my love for you has never wavered, not even for a moment. You are the one who fills my thoughts and my dreams, the one whose absence leaves an ache in my heart that nothing else can soothe. I long to hold you in my arms again, to whisper words of love and affection into your ear, to show you just how much you mean to me. Y/N, if you'll allow me the chance, I promise to make things right. I am willing to do whatever it takes to earn back your trust and your love. I know I don't deserve it, but I am willing to spend the rest of my days proving to you just how much you mean to me. Please, Y/N, give me another chance. I cannot bear the thought of spending another day without you by my side. You are my sun, my moon, my everything, and I love you more than words can say. With all my love, Park Seonghwa
Park Seonghwa KQ Entertainment
"..." You looked at the email he sent, trying to fight back tears.
Should you reply? What should you even say? Do you even want him back? You thought.

☆ how the boxers react to being flirted with ☆
Sorry for dissapearing (again), i was busy damaging my hearing, enjoy my woobification teehee
Glass Joe
- Really depends on how you flirt with him, if its poetic or really straightforward hes gonna turn into a tomato
- hes not giggling, its just your imagination nuh uh
- he def rolls in bed like a rotisserie chicken while thinking about ur pick up line
- hes gonna try to flirt back until its just a competition of who blushes the hardest
Von Kaiser
- actual jaw drop from him, the more poetic the better
- in shock, his brain literally turns off
- has to check his pulse because GODDAMN his heart is beating harder than usual (You may have a heart palpitation, kaiser)
- you live rent free in his head now congratulations
Disco Kid
- right back at you, if youre a bit too straightforward he may need to tell you to slow down
- youre getting a response IMMEDIATLY. And i mean it, fresh out of the oven, thrown at you with some sprinkles on top
- giggling while he calls you cute names like sweetie, honey, baby etc etc
King Hippo
- nice try, HES AROACE!! (GET HEADCANONED IDIOT!!)
- he laughs it off while making it clear hes not into you or anyone
- flattered though, appreciates the fact that you were willing to go out of your way to approach him
- if he was not aroace or only ace, he'd just smile, the more poetic you go with him the better you have chance of making him go red
Piston Hondo
- hes suddenly cosplaying a cherry
- loves poetic rizz, will definitely go back at you until both of your flirting attempts sound like two lovers mailing each other in opposite sides of the world while one is at war
- if youre straightforward he just gets flabbergasted, like what do you mean there isnt a build up for it with 20 poems inbetween??
- cant focus rest of the day, hes internally screaming off a mountain
- the sight of you just makes his ability to focus evaporate
- draws and/or writes about you rest of the day
Great Tiger
- if you use something clever you can get a small blush out of him
- if you're the type to go for poetic lines youre gonna need to call 911 because his soul literally vanishes from existence, tiger dont go into the light stay with us PLEASE
- has to have his clones give him flirting advice because his flirting skills are not there (like 80% of my hearing)
- his flirting attempts are just "damn, are you a construction worker?, because you are a building." no matter how much he tries
Bear Hugger
- he makes his reactions clear, literally emotes while you flirt with him
- if youre poetic or straightforward he literally just says "woah"
- he just turns into that one cartoon wolf im not kidding, literal "ohh mama hubba hubba" from this man
- his flirting style is very straightforward, not "hey babygirl" type but "youre so pretty i would leave all my belongings and change my identity if it ment i could hold your hand" type, do you understand??
Don Flamenco
- replies 1.2 seconds after you, he needs to have the last word here (or last rizz in this case)
- literal mirror, the more more straightforward & atrocious your lines are the more straightforward his are going to be until it devolves into both of you sounding down bad, when they go low, he goes lowER
- poetic lines makes him have a heart attack
- its actually possible to fluster him
- unironically says babygirl to anyone hes flirting with when approaching, it doesnt matter how tall, strong or flirty you are, your gender doesnt matter, he can and will call you babygirl, its a gender neutral term for him, corners you while doing it
Aran Ryan
- evil cackling, if you put a organ over his laugh you suddenly get a scooby doo villain, he sounds less like hes flustered and more like hes about to detonate a nuclear bomb
- unhinged lines, ends up getting restraining orders thrown at him
- brings things he finds cool to flirt, ranging from flowers to rocks (he was a evil crow in a past life trust me his left eyebrow told me)
- cartwheels away
Soda Popinski
- maniacal giggling, even if its not THAT good & ridiculously straightforward
- his pick up lines unintentionally sound like god tier shitposts & end up working somehow
- corners you (in the romantic way) if you're really direct
- has the silliest giggle when flustered, literal "hehe" coming from this man that could snap you in half if he wanted to
Bald Bull
- you think the others are bad at handling flirting?? Then you havent seen bald bull because OH MY GOD HES ABOUT TO LITERALLY FLY OFF THE EARTH
- hes actually fairly difficult to fluster but once you find his weak spot hes gone from there
- cannot flirt back, blurts something dumb out like "sorry im all red pretty people make me nauseous"
- he literally goes (> - <) when blushing & covers his face with his hands
- the more direct you are the closer he gets to passing out
- stutters a lot (omg y/n is that you)
- Bull, this is bottom behavior
- people use the most unhinged pick up lines on him, someone once told him "let me milk you."
- his hands automatically go 👉👈 if hes too flustered
Super Macho Man
- Stop boosting his ego please, he may be flustered but youre kinda enabling him
- dumbest pick up lines
- also another unironic "hey babygirl" user
- if he doesnt know what to do he just throws money & valuables, 5000 dollars be upon ye
Mr Sandman
- oh my god he has the sweetest smile ever (if you dont go too straightforward), he doesnt blush a whole lot but he just chuckles a bit
- if youre direct, his jaw also drops like huh??
- his weak spots are poems & small gifts
- a little bit dense but once he gets it he smiles like crazy
- giggling kicking his feet whenever he remembers that

the gang (+ jr and a.b)’s ideal date
(inside job) sorry if anyone’s done this before haha I just had this idea
reagan:
despite her being like my main crush/f/o, she was probably the hardest to do but I feel like it would really depend on her mood. she’d either want to go to a museum (“we both know museums are the sexiest places on Earth!”) or just chilling at home watching tv.
if you two go to a museum, she’d probably really enjoy holding your hand while you walk around. physical touch is more bearable for her when she’s engaging in her special interests or doing something she enjoys.
she also doesn’t watch a lot of tv, so when you’re watching stuff with her, she usually lets you pick what to watch. I think she’d enjoy things like physiological horror. (same reagan, same)
restaurants are a nightmare tho. like she gets so stressed and overwhelmed as it’s loud, and she really struggles to be herself in busy environments, especially when eating.
if she’s eating a comfort food though, she can manage!!
you also bond when ur in the car together! it sounds stupid, but she probably ends up talking about smth rlly random, and you two talk about it for hours.
it could just start off with smth like “hey,, y/n, is a hotdog a sandwich?”
and ya’ll most likely lightheartedly argue about it for ages.
she doesn’t say it a lot, but she really loves and appreciates spending time with you.
brett:
OH <33 BRETT’S SUCH A SUCKER FOR SIMPLE CUTE DATES
like take him on a picnic in the woods (he’d totally make you and him matching flower crowns)
also taking him to still valley and having an 80s style date, it would make him cry :((( /pos
speaking of, after a long day of work, pls cuddle him on the couch and watch the growing years with him <333
it would make his year
just anything soft & simple would just make brett melt :( like reagan he finds big dates v overwhelming
but if there was anywhere in particular he wanted to go, but couldn’t because he was so anxious, get the man a fidget toy to fiddle with.
gigi:
this was quite hard, but y’know those photoshoot places you can go to with pretty backgrounds, where you take photos? yea, she’d like those. then taking you to a fancy restaurant after.
also movie nights where you cuddle on the couch watching shit and she points out the subliminal messages in them.
smth like “hey, y/n, did you know that Hwang represents the shadow gouvernment?”
also I think as a treat, maybe once a month, if you’re comfortable enough, she’d take you to a club!
you’d dance together and it’s a v nice experience.
very big on double dates. idk why, she just gives that vibe.
also CLOTHES SHOPPING. like you two will go to the store, try on different clothes, and she WILL compliment you.
glenn:
again i find mr. dolphman hard to write so bear with me
my guy would melt if you took him to like an raf museum? like just him explaining all the parts of the plane, you not really understanding, but just saying “that’s lovely, dear,”
also classic dates! fancy restaurants, cinema, etc etc.
i think he’d be really into hearty food, like lasagne.
he’d also be obsessed with surprising you with food.
andre:
CONCERTS.
idk why, he’s just the type of guy to take you to a lot of concerts. he really enjoys high-energy experiences with you like that.
also going to get fast food at 3am. like my dude would randomly text you at 3:00 in the morning like “hey babe, wanna get mcdonalds?”
like gigi, he’d take you to clubs. but not as a treat like gigi, i mean like every 2 weeks.
myc:
y’know those 50’s style diners? yea. that’s myc’s shit.
also staying in and having deep conversations while jazz music plays on his record player.
just v classic, traditional dates. any fancy restaurant he will love.
im sorry i don’t have more for him 😭
jr:
GO GOLFING WITH HIM
pls he’d love that :((
like crazy golf specifically? just for fun
also he’d take you to fancy restaurants.
when I say fancy, I mean over £50 just for starters.
let him spoil u his love language is gift giving,
robotus/alpha beta
just snuggling up on the sofa, ordering takeout and watching friends.
he’d die <333
i can just imagine him melting into your touch like <33 he feels so fucking loved??

hi all!
quick note from me but my physical and mental health is still a shambles, and to be quite frank im a little burned out from my series writing.
so, update/ramble below!
(if you wish to read)
while i love writing ndilyd and c+c, there is an intense amount of pressure i put on myself to make these pieces perfect. i try my hardest to craft things that will stick with everyone, and really be something to remember. it's my true goal, but it also puts a high bar on my standards and my expectations.
lately i feel like ive lost touch with a part of what made this blog so fun and that's just quick pieces that are sitting on my brain, throwing things at the wall and onto the next.
so im hoping to do a bit more of that in the coming weeks, and trying to care less about perfecting things and more about exploring ideas and having fun. often times i come here and find myself comparing myself to others and feeling like a failure, and I just feel lost in general, so i'm trying to just recapture some joy and have a little fun!
while my wrist is healed up, my mental health spiral still hasn't really resolved and im still working on getting to a better place with that, along with dealing with long term health issues. so yeah, i still don't feel like ive returned to pre-break me. i get anxiety answering asks, i worry too much about the little things, and just... im a mess, sorry!
bear with me, please. no hard feelings if you don't, though i appreciate everyone who continues to support me <3

Im sorry but WHAT are these ancient fucking laws I keep reading about in so many percy jackson fics 😭😭 I read the books a long time ago, so I don't remember it, but I thought it was just a fanon thing to explain why the gods are neglectful?
OKAY IM REALLY GLAD YOU ASKED THIS CUZ YOU'RE NOT ALONE
ive seen so many comments in arsenic blues from ppl who believe that ALL the gods are being WILLINGLY neglectful towards their kids, and that is NOT true.
the ancient laws are a canon thing in pjo. it's been mentioned many many times, but through scattered discussion. here's a list of dialogues that talk/mention it (the quotes were taken from this helpful reddit post btw)
example 1:
"Do not judge the Lord of the Sea too harshly," the Nereid told me. “He stands at the brink of an unwanted war. He has much to occupy his time. Besides, he is forbidden to help you directly. The gods may not show such favouritism.” “Even to their own children?” “Especially to them. The gods can work by indirect influence only. That is why I give you a warning, and a gift.”
example 2:
“Permission to kill, my lady?” I couldn’t tell who she was talking to, because she kept her eyes on the manticore. The monster wailed. ‘This is not fair! Direct interference! It is against the Ancient Laws.”
example 3:
"Why show yourself now?" Luke demanded. His shoulders were tense, as if he expected a fight. "All these years I've been calling to you, praying you'd show up, and nothing. You left me with her." He pointed toward the kitchen like he couldn't bear to look at his mother, much less say her name. "Luke, do not dishonor her," Hermes warned. "Your mother did the best she could. As for me, I could not interfere with your path. The children of the gods must find their own way."
example 4:
“Luke, I care very much,’ Hermes said slowly, ‘but gods must not interfere directly in mortal affairs. It is one of our Ancient Laws. Especially when your destiny ...” His voice trailed off.
example 5:
My heart sank. Chiron was right, but it was all we could muster. For once I wished Dionysus were here, but even if he had been, I didn’t know if he could have done anything. When it came to war, gods were forbidden to interfere directly. Apparently, the Titans didn’t believe in restrictions like that.
example 6:
Hermes readjusted the mailbag on his shoulder. ‘Percy, the hardest part about being a god is that you must often act indirectly, especially when it comes to your own children. If we were to intervene every time our children had a problem ... well, that would only create more problems and more resentment.
example 7:
“Besides, even if the other gods suspect Hades – and I imagine Poseidon does – they couldn’t retrieve the bolt themselves. Gods cannot cross each other’s territories except by invitation. That is another ancient rule. Heroes, on the other hand, have certain privileges. They can go anywhere, challenge anyone, as long as they’re bold enough and strong enough to do it. No god can be held responsible for a hero’s actions. Why do you think the gods always operate through humans?”
example 8:
"Now, a god cannot usurp another god's symbol of power directly-that is forbidden by the most ancient of divine laws. But Zeus believes your father convinced a human hero to take it."
don't get me wrong, there are gods who couldn't care less about their kids and willingly neglect them, but it's veeeery wrong to believe that ALL the gods are like this. it's canon that gods cannot interfere in their children's lives, even if they want to. they don't neglect their kids because they don't care about them, they do it because they don't have a choice.
hermes and luke's relationship shows this perfectly. hermes IS a good dad (he's actually one of the best imo). he knew what luke's fate would be and TRIED to change it even though everyone knew it would be impossible, but he was desperate anyway because he loved his son and wanted to try and save him.
unfortunately, every attempt to change his fate always failed (because duh, can't change fate): he sent luke on a quest to "build him up as a hero" only for luke to fail and get a scar, asked percy and annabeth to save him, but they failed too (he even snapped at annabeth for failing to go with his son).
sooo yeah! like i said, there are some godly parents that willingly neglect their kids because they don't care about them, but that's not the case for every single god. there ARE gods who care about their kids, they're just forbidden to interact with them, and that means they can't raise them either.

hi lovelies. ♥︎
TW: mentions of suicide and self-harm under the cut
i apologize for leaving such a cryptic, vague post last night on my blog. i saw only now that it caused a bit of a panic in some people and i am very sorry.
the past couple of days have been incredibly difficult for me in regards to my personal life because for the past several months, i’ve been harassed nonstop by these two women at my job who don’t like me and try to sabotage me at work relentlessly and it went way too far this week. i won’t go into it, but it got extremely, EXTREMELY bad. LEGAL bad.
my whole life, i’ve struggled with my trauma and mental health, especially my suicidal ideations. this situation at work triggered a very specific part of my PTSD and it’s been causing me not to think straight at all.
yesterday and today, i’ve been unfortunately physically harming myself and attempted to commit suicide more than once. thankfully my ex (live in, not soulmate) has been with me and was able to stop most instances and she’s been keeping an eye on me and keeping me safe.
i’ve been on a little social media break today, only going online to respond to personal DMs from concerned friends + mutuals. i haven’t looked through my notifications fully yet, but i did see a few messages in my inbox. for my own sake, im not going to reply to them for the time-being.
love you all very much and love this community. it’s always been such an amazing outlet and escape for me, and i’ve made such amazing friends along the way. i’m very grateful.
if i’m not as active or am not publishing as fast as y’all would like, i apologize. this year has been one of the hardest of my life (which is saying a lot), and though i love writing, i want to be happy with the work i put out. that takes time and effort and a lot of energy and a bit of mental stability, and i don’t always have all of those things. so please bear with me.
love you all. thank you for those who reached out in concern. thank you especially to my friends and mutuals who’ve reached out both here and outside this blog. love you. love you. love you.

HALLOOO AGAIN ITSA MEEE
ᵀʰᵒᵘᵍʰ ᶦᵈᵗ ʸᵘ ᵏⁿᵒ ʷʰᵒ ᵐᵉᵉ ᶦˢ-
to say you is speed is an understatement- i too, get excited when i see you posting croc man content- your writing is just muah 💪💪💪💪
Also- yes i would like a nickname :D, dats hec COOL-
Behold,
✨Helicopter anon✨
Bc ykno- it goes brrrr and brrr is good for health 😌
ANYWAY- HERES ANOTHERRRR
I hope im not spamming requests- you can take your time of course 😤
These are just ideas for you :)
Ok business time 👹
👏Crocman dad👏trying👏to👏protect👏his👏child's👏innocence 👏
Like crocodile has bad habits right-: smoking (a l o t o f s m o k i n g), mafia business, cussing, angery and stuff like that.
To start- He wont smoke around his child, if his child appears out of nowhere he would most prob like yeet his cigar somewhere HAHAHAHAH
Doesnt talk about his underworld business when his child is present, imagine his agents or his clients coming in straight up with details of his work like "sir i got rid of tha-" *croc staring daggers at dem with his kid playing in his office*
Also, since he spends alot of time with his wife and child, when there is a needed time to k e e l somebody he just hands his child that he's holding, to his wife c a l m l y and the wife who knows whats abouta go down and just goes "whoops lets go buy ice cream shall we" *walks away* bc queen knows 😌
He just avoids everything possibly bad
I hope this gave you some ideas-
Again, you can take 1% of these or add and its still foine
Thank youuuu

and now requests are OPEN!!! please check my pinned post before requesting!!
Tumblr media
“Dear,” you played with the collar of Crocodile’s button up trying to ignore the cigar smoke flying around your face. “I've been meaning to talk to you about…” you flicked his cigar and he giggled, kissing your neck. “This.”
“Huh?” Crocodile moved from his neck looking down at his cigar. “This? What about this?”
“Uhm… It's just… our son. I don't want-”
“Oh, I haven't been doing it around him.”
You tilted your head, trying to think back to the times of all of you hanging out together. “You haven't?”
“Nope. You think I want my six year old to know what I do for a living?”
You giggled and played with the bottom of Croc’s hair. “I don't know why I ever doubted you.”
If Crocodile was being fully honest with you though, it was the most impossible thing he had to do. Hiding your mafia identity from a sporadic child was hands down the hardest thing in the world.
For example, one time, he was just in his office working when his six year old burst in the room making airplane noises as he ran back and forth with a toy plane. Crocodile has never thrown something so long and far, but his cigar ended up on the other side of the room while his child turned to him with a goofy smile asking what that was.
Or when Crocodile was teaching his son how to use a map and one of his employees walked in.
“Sir, we took care of the body you wanted us to hi-”
Crocodile had never stared at someone with such force. He pointed to his child who was coloring the map with sharks and fish and pointed to the door, forcing his employee out.
All Crocodile’s son knew Crocodile to be a big teddy bear. Someone who would help him whenever he had a nightmare. Someone who loved his momma with all of his heart and soul. Someone he looked up to.
Crocodile knew that eventually he would have to tell his son about his business, hopefully have him take it over when the time came. But for now he was learning. Trying to figure out the world. The last thing he needed to know was Crocodile’s grudge against Monkey D. Luffy and the fact that he had been to jail and that he had committed multiple crimes. That was for another day.
Whenever he was curious though, it was always your job to step up.
“Honey,” Crocodile handed you your son, his employees standing behind him. “I have to go take care of something. Take him out to go get some frozen yogurt and get yourself something nice, love.”
He placed a kiss on your head and your sons, walking out of the room with that evil, but sexy look on his face that made you swoon.
“Momma?” You set your son down and grabbed his hand. “Where’s daddy going?”
You just smiled and rubbed the top of his jet black hair. “He's going to work dear.”
“What does daddy do for work?”
You grabbed the keys off of the wall and smirked. “Daddy takes care of business, buddy.”
You kissed him on the forehead and took him out for frozen yogurt while Crocodile did just that.
Take care of business.

Hi! I was scrolling on my tik tok and saw a couple of videos with oldies playing and I started thinking..what would be some oldies Zoro would play for his s/o? Would there be a song in particular he dedicates his s/o to? I 💓 your work btw!! Glad to see you back! ^_^
˗ˏˋ꒰🎧꒱ zoro x oldies (zoro oldies music headcanon)
˗ˏˋ꒰🎧꒱ a/n:OMG YESSSSS YESSSS!!!! IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE TURN IT UP!!! BITCHESS!!! Gracias amor!! I’m so happy to be back. tell me bear is American without telling me bear is American: SPRING BREAK lemme stop embarrassing myself anyways!!’ Thank you so much for loving my work! I love you!
Tumblr media
˗ˏˋ꒰🎧꒱ - so for zoro I definitely think about so many oldies for him so he’s such a physical top and emotional bottom fr y’all can’t tell me otherwise
˗ˏˋ꒰🎧꒱ I definitely think smile now cry later by sunny and the sunliners “i smile for my friends and cry later.” Those lyrics hit him the hardest because he’s not that type of person to show his true emotions to anyone but to his crew mates and his s/o.
˗ˏˋ꒰🎧꒱ somebody loves you by the delfoics is a song he’ll for sure dedicate to you and play for you. Because it’s a good song in eyes
˗ˏˋ꒰🎧꒱ what would your daddy say by the earles inc. is a must to play when he’s sharpening his swords, or humming while taking his naps in the crows nest.
˗ˏˋ꒰🎧꒱ ahora te puedes machar (Spanish version of i only want to be with you by dusty spring) cover by le surfs. he’ll proudly sing this song in the shower. if sanji hears him singing along, by walking in and eagle screeching. pobrecito chopper to have to help sanji recover from zoros ass beating, but it’s worth it in his eyes
˗ˏˋ꒰🎧꒱ im your puppet by james and bobby purify: yes just yes. once he’s in love there’s no one else in his eyes but his s/o. he’s a man of his word. no one else just you
˗ˏˋ꒰🎧꒱ the tears of a clown by smokey robinson and the miracles. zoro has clown energy sometimes don’t even try to defend him. it’s cute for him to be obsessed with oldies tbh

so. in advance im so sorry if this spirals out of control, but i just... haven't been able to stop thinking about the idea of your podcast, yknow?
i think it's something about knowing that feeling. i have spent a Long time in high school (long enough im wayyy past sick of this place 🙄) and most of that has been spent being bullied by sophomore-equivalents. and what that does is it teaches you a lot of things very fast. well, it taught me a lot of things very fast, certainly. stuff like how i should never actually respond to how my weekend was (nobody actually wants an answer to that, apparently) or what my favourite film/book/game is (nobody actually cares, apparently) and- most aptly- to never, ever make anything that's got more joy, wit, and passion than the of back of a cereal box put into it. i have sat the night before a project was due and rewrote the entire thing because it would be too soul-bearing otherwise. because it would get mocked either way, and i couldn't bear that happening to something i actually cared about.
and i have lived six years like this. six years of supposedly the most creative part of my life have been spent writing, drawing, and talking about stuff that would make wheaties look like an exciting novelty.
and you know what?
it doesn't even work. as my mother puts it, if people want to make fun of you, they'll find a way to do it no matter what. the point is- cicada, i don't want you to ever learn these lessons. ever. the world is not like sophmore year of high school. it is full of people like felix, and toulouse, and everyone else that cares about you. it's full of people that are going to love you for your full and unapologetic self. i promise. i've been there. i'll hold your hand through it and everything. but you have poured your heart and soul into this podcast, and i never, ever want you to stop doing that. fuck. them. they have no right, no place to make you feel shame for being who you are or liking what you do. but they can, and they will, no matter what you stand up there and present.
so you might as well present that podcast proudly. and you might as well continue to make and enjoy things like it for the rest of your life. for yourself, and for everyone who was too afraid to do something similar.
it isn't an easy choice. it is one of the hardest things you'll ever have to do. but i'm proud of you either way. even making it's an act of rebellion. schools WANT cereal-packet crap. don't let them have it. okay?
Okay. I'll try.

yes a thousand percent absolutely lets go
(firstly i am sorry my post put anyone to a point of feeling the need to apologize for or feel bad for being Very Into Leo’s character. as someone who is flagrantly Very Into Raph’s character, i promise i wasn’t trying to throw a stone in this glass house. i’ve gotten burnt out on a lot of fanon leo stuff but part of why im so !!!! about it is bc i too love leo’s characterization and potential.. i swear
catch me catching my brain and tone malfunctions behind dennys later, sorry again gang)
BUT YE I’LL TALK ABOUT MOVIE RAPH STUFF TO MY BEST CAPACITY ALL DAY
overall i honestly... totally get raph being hard to get a handle on in this respect. like it’s pretty difficult to pick where to start and how to express it even just in an informal tumblr analysis post, i still haven’t managed to put together any kind of fic myself LMAO. bear with me i will do my best!
so firstly there’s just the veritable gauntlet of “stuff raph experienced/was dealing with in the span of the movie” to consider, i think. 
- his fear and anxiety over his family’s safety, for which he always always feels personally responsible. when he called the retreat during that first fight with the krang, he was absolutely terrified-- and i can only imagine how much scarier it was after leo bailed on the escape pod. like, there’s no way raph was not hauling ass after leo the second he saw that happen.
= he takes a hit for leo, as in just barely stops it and loses a chunk of shell/plastron in the process. he sacrifices himself using his pod to get leo out of there safely (and there’s so much to be said about the fact that raph’s pod seems to be the only one that didn’t auto-activate. that only he and donnie seemed to know they even existed. there’s a whole talk they must have had right there, like raph would probably have had to ask specifically for this feature.)
- the krang try to intimidate answers out of him about the key, and when that doesn’t get them those answers, prime literally jams tentacles into his brain and roots around until he can find what they’re looking for. so that’s one bullet point on the list for outright mental violation. it looks/sounds very painful, not to mention terrifying. 
^^ and honestly, this point of suffering in particular is one that i think would be hardest for raph to actually bring up/talk about with his family. because none of them were there. none of them KNOW. and how do you explain that to them? how do you try to make yourself break that out when they’re already worried about the other stuff that happened to you and to everyone else? when part of you is guilty about it despite yourself, because so much of your identity is tied into being a protector that you can’t help but feel like you should have been able to wall that info off somehow and keep your family safe?
- gets infected by the krang and put into the big gross pod to... incubate, i guess? there’s so much unanswered about the point between brain torture and getting found by his family tbh. was he conscious and aware of being left alone in there? was that why he was so out of it even before the mutation?
- and then of course there’s said painful, grotesque body horror forced krang mutation that he has to go through once he’s out of the pod! thanks i hated it! like it seriously looks so gross and painful.
- ah yes and the mind control... being used as a tool and a puppet and specifically set out to hurt or even kill the family he loves and wants to protect. 
- the standard “we had our cool epic boss fight against the evil alien but he kicked our asses with one flick and then punched mikey and donnie all the way to staten island” physical roughage, too. leo portaled him after mikey and donnie so he could catch them. donnie took the brunt of the krang punch, and raph took the brunt of the hard landing (he is holding his side like he might have some rib issues, they all look rough af down there phew)
- leo’s sacrifice is leo’s sacrifice and definitely a leo development moment as an action itself, i’m never gonna say 'yep here’s how leo getting brutalized in prison dimension is all about raph’. i’m talking about the like, aftermath and pre-rescue emotional toll that that has etc etc etc. ftr.
point one there is obviously just the grief. like, raph is literally incapable of standing when it hits. he’s on all fours, he can’t open his eyes. i made a post comparing the caps of raph’s face getting stabbed and raph’s face when it was sinking in that leo was (apparently) Gone gone bc the expressions are nearly identical. like just. absolute agony. 
- and on top of that, i sincerely think that leo’s “you’re one to talk, hero moves are totally your thing” apparent last words are gonna stick with raph for a very long time. even after they save leo. the look on his face after leo says that... man. i think there’s a very real moment of raph going what have i done, what did i teach him? about the entire situation.
the way this is already tl;dr oh well SO IG SOME OF MY GENERAL TAKEAWAYS AND THINGS I THINK ABOUT WHEN IT COMES TO POST-MOVIE RAPH:
first and foremost. rip raph sufferer of some of the most intense eldest child syndrome i’ve ever seen. he feels bad that he got used to get his family’s location. he feels bad that he got used to harm and nearly kill his family. he probably feels bad that leo feels bad that his shell is damaged, smh. it’s guilt all the way down. the kind where he knows logically his family does not want or need apologies, that getting controlled was literally not his fault, but he feels bad anyway.
and like i said i get how it’s hard to get a handle on him for stuff, because raph is also... not super good at the emotional vulnerability sharing? it’s so wild because he’s very openly emotional and easy to read! he’ll cry during a sad movie scene and yell at a frustrating video game no problem, he’s very straightforward! but when it comes to sincere vulnerability and actually seeking comfort/closure about it, he has a big struggle vibe. good luck to the entire family bc every single brother is gonna be in a “oh but everyone else already has so much to deal with i don’t wanna pile more on with my problems” zone, i think. 
also just like. raph is a protector. that’s one of the core pillars of his sense of identity and worth. he takes care of his brothers. he keeps his family safe. and so so so much of what he went through or experienced in the movie went directly against that. raph, the big brother, the beating heart of the team, the one who takes hits, the overprotective mother hen, gets used to track down his family, and then gets used to hurt them. very nearly gets used to kill leo outright. isn’t there to take the hit for leo again at the end of the movie, is helpless as his little brother seemingly sacrifices his life to save them and the world. how does he come to terms with that? how does he feel like he still deserves the trust and faith that his family puts in him to keep being a rock? (they’re not scared of him, but he’s scared of him.)
and for real seriously how does he ever ever get around to dealing with that brain probe and the mutation specifically. his mind and his bodily autonomy got so deeply violated in the process of this movie. it’s scary! and painful! what kind of scenario would a writer even have to rig up to back him into enough of a corner to share those feelings with his family (who would absolutely want to comfort and support him)! it’s nightmarish stuff that’s gonna linger with him for the rest of his life. 
and in fact on the mutuation/mind control. i think the fact that leo was able to get through to raph just with words, that that was how he managed to break through the control, maybe means that raph was aware of what he was being made to do all along and just. unable to pull enough strength together to stop it before that point. woof.
idk idk if any of this makes real sense or helps for getting a handle on raph’s character at all tbh, it’s just a lot of me nonsensically putting him in a jar with a leaf and a stick for scientific observation ig. if ppl wanna hit me w questions or discussions about my personal opinions on my favorite boi feel free tbh
maybe the real raph character analysis was the hug and nightmare-free nap he probably desperately needs all along....... ah its too late hes dissociating on the couch. relatable.

hi jen!! so me and one of my best friends were recently in a short relationship. i’d liked her for a long time (we’ve been friends for 3 years and i liked her basically the whole time.) she had asked me out, because i didn’t say anything because i didn’t want to ruin our friendship. well, she also ended things with me after a couple months, saying that she wanted to protect our friendship. the thing is, it’s been a couple months and i’ve moved on, and im slowly getting back on the dating scene. but she’s very sensitive about romantic relationships, and she feels like she’s never going to have one. she’s important to me and i want her to know what’s going on my life, and i don’t want to lie to her, but i also don’t want to make her feel bad that i’ve moved on and am finding romance while she isn’t. i just want to protect her but i also don’t want to put my life on hold… help please 🙏
ps: you are so cool!! i want to be you when i “grow up” lol
I completely understand being torn between what is right for you and what might be the least painful for her. The fact is, you both gave it a try and it was not a good fit. That gives you some closure. 
Your future actions have no bearing on her future luck with love or romance. She might be unintentionally trying to keep you as back up. It might also be that she understands that as you move on, no matter how important your friendship is, once you have a romantic partner she will become the focus of your time and attention (as it should be). It can be scary to think about becoming second in a relationship where she has enjoyed top status, both as a partner and now as a friend. 
It is completely okay and even the right move for you to begin dating since you feel ready and want to get back out there. Usually the initial moments of her finding out that you are dating are the hardest on you because she might make you feel guilty or even cruel, even if she doesn’t mean to. She might well be hurt or feel like you are moving on too quickly but you can’t control her feelings, that is up to her to deal with. She has the choices to make. Either she deals with her emotions and heals or she ramps up a plan of guilt tripping you or attempting to control your dating life. Her response will give you an indication of her true friendship.
My guess is, at first she will be hurt and feel a little betrayed and scared to be alone as you move on. All those emotions are normal and to be expected. Soon she will settle and might gain some courage to begin putting herself out there again as she sees you moving on. Eventually she will meet someone or you will and the natural progression of the friendship will happen without much drama at all. Life gets busy and our best relationships sort of roll with the punches after the initial slam of change. 
If it is too much for her to hear your dating adventures it is okay to curb that and not discuss it until later. It is not lying to withhold that information and talk about other things. Eventually she will be accustomed to the fact that you are dating and if her connection to you as a friend is a healthy one she will want to know how things are progressing, it just might not be right away. You can let her know you are dating again without going into detail. What she does with that is up to her and you are not in charge or control of her actions. 
If you grow up to be like me, my advice is about two things I wish I had known: don't get that baby goat because your girlfriend “thinks it is sooo cute” and start a savings account that you put money into every paycheck, even if it is 5 bucks.

Hi, a little bit new but I love your fallout OC's! For the 60 questions, how about #3, #41, and #55?
Welcome!! and thank you sm! It makes me so happy when people end up loving my lil blorbos!!! (you didn't specify which oc so im gonna do all 3 if that's ok?)
(60 OC Questions Ask)
- [3] What emotion is the hardest for them to deal with?
Jack: For Jack I would say the emotion he has the hardest time with is anger, not just because he hates feeling angry and the way it affects him physically, feeling dizzy, tensing up, trembling etc. The thing he hates most is the way he deals with it (or doesn't) he's the kinda person to just bottle up those emotions until they go away themselves, not having a healthy way of venting them out. Which, sometimes, leads to him just exploding and lashing out at people he isn't angry at! Of course, he'll immediately feel bad for doing so and apologise (cue bear hug and tearful apologies) This being said though, Jack does not get angry easily! You really have to try to get him cross, the best you'll usually get is annoyed! I also think the older he gets, the better he'll get at dealing with this.
Eliza: In Eliza's case, I'd definitely say the one she has the biggest time dealing with is guilt, overwhelming guilt. She's worked hard at building up her spiky, flippant exterior, but underneath all that is someone who cares deeply for the world and the people around her! And because of this she's always being weighed down by guilt, the guilt of never feeling like she's done enough, that she's letting her friends and family down. But most of all, she feels guilt for the way she's left things with her father, before she could apologise for the way she treated him as a kid, and forgive him for abandoning her. And the guilt of abandoning Arthur Maxson, the person she swore she'd protect from the Brotherhood and that she'd always be there for.
Stephen: I'd say Stephen's hardest emotion to deal with is stress, he's carrying so much on his lil shoulders! Not only does he have to find his nephew Shaun, he's the General of the Minutemen, Knight of the Brotherhood of Steel, a Railroad Agent and (Part-Time) Detective! He has so many fires that are all demanding his attention, he's stretched thin all over the Commonwealth, not to mention the fact he's also dying and only has a limited amount of time to do all this. He's lucky he has Danse and all his friends to deal with this, but it does take a massive toll on his physical and mental well-being. Danse encourages, forces him to take breaks the first time he gets sick from all the stress.
- [41] What’s their usual morning routine?
Jack: he is very much a lazy morning person, you will not physically get this man out of bed before 10pm (if you even try he'll drag you into bed with him), would lounge in bed for as long as he can before he has to get up. He'll drag himself to the kitchen before having breakfast lunch and running out the house while brushing his teeth, because odd's are that he's definitely late for whatever he had going on that day!
Eliza: She is very much a morning person, like early morning person. Most days she'll be up by 4/5AM, it doesn't take her long to wake up either (she's an insomniac too, so chances are she probably hasn't slept) after a quick cold shower and skin care (mainly around the scar where her left eye used to be) she'll be fed, dressed and out the house to start the day!
Stephen: I'd say Stephen is also a morning person, but not by choice. As much as he would love to stay in bed cuddling Danse, he has an entire militia to run. He probably has the quickest morning routine compared to the others, very rehearsed to be as efficient as possible so he can be on his way quicker! Wakeup -> Shower -> Get Dressed -> Leave. He finds it easier to just skip breakfast all together (it also makes him feel nauseous in the morning) Danse probably ends up joining him during this routine so he actually gets ready properly.
- [55] How long does it take for them to make a new place feel like home, and what do they need for it?
Jack: I feel like for Jack, a place can feel like home pretty quickly, as much as he travels and is constantly moving he can really settle in and make a place his. He mainly does this by making a place smell like home! He probably doesn't look it, but he's big on scents! Likewise, he needs for himself and his home to smell nice, or he can't properly settle in. I feel like he'd stick to more basic scents though for his home, so it'd probably smell like Vanilla or Fresh Linens, anything that'll remind him of his time in the Vault.
Eliza: for Eliza it takes her a while to warm up to a space and make it feel like home, like Jack she's always travelling and on the move. So why bother decorating if she's just going to move out in a week or so? It'd probably take her a couple of months to finally really settle into a place long term, she does this with clutter! Eliza is a hoarder, if she feels like anything has some kind of value, be that monetary or sentimental, she'll keep it! This means over time, her home will just start filling with clutter. To her, it makes the place feel cosy and lived in.
Stephen: for Stephen, I'd say he's more middle ground, doesn't take as long as Eliza but also isn't as quick as Jack, give him around a week or 2 before really settling in. And for a place to feel like a home to Stephen, it needs people! What's the point of having a home if it's empty? So he fills his home with friends and family! It ends up being a communal meeting place for his friends, always full of laughter and conversation. It adds a certain warmth to his home that Stephen just can't be settled in without! (It being in central Diamond City helps too)
