obsessed with the anon, who, themselves admitted to also being white, who wanted to virtue signal so badly that they know fetishizing other ethnicities is bad, that they got it confused for simply "being attracted to someone who is not white". sergle found guilty for being horny outside her race
First of all: this is such a meandering sentence that it took me a couple seconds too long for my brain to register it properly. #womenforilliteracy Second of all: SCREAMS... Sometimes it really does feel like people are so scared to be attracted to a motherfucker, that all attraction is predatory somehow. Somehow fully looping all the way back around to being anti-miscegenation in the pursuit. of. NOT being racist. right right okay okay okay okay cool

By your side from day one <3
finally set aside some time to finish off wilds turn for being self aware, the smartest one who found a way to get out without breaking your tv and getting the glass shards of screen everywhere. I'll be back on requests and such soon though!! <3
[masterlist]
Tumblr media
“Come on [name], you can’t be serious about missing out on plans just to talk to someone you don’t even know is real.”
“You say like I would want to go clubbing tonight either way, besides he’s said he’s just been working up the courage to video call.”
“And you trust that?”
They’ve got enough of a conscious to look a bit ashamed when I look at them, I know they’re worried for me but of all the things to be so worked up about this seems harmless. 
“What if I told you that he was messaging me and telling me to stop talking to you.”
“Can you show me the proof.”
“Well… no. he deleted them immediately afterwards.”
Are they just jealous? This is so unlike them that it’s offputting. I know they can get a little worked up when I get close to other people but accusing my online friend - accusing wild - of threatening them? It’s petty and childish. Are they afraid I’ll replace them or something? 
“Okay, alright. This isn’t going to make me cut him off you know?”
“[name]...”
“Reach out when you don’t feel like senselessly trying to cut me off from others. I’ll see you around.”
Hopefully, it’s sooner rather than later, but if they don’t? It’s their own fault they thought they would need to sabotage my other relationships to get closer to me. They even have the audacity to call out after me as I’m leaving, still trying to warn me about him, like they can’t accept I would dare get close to anyone else. Not like it doesn’t feel awful potentially losing a friend like this, but what can I really do?
The trip home seems to pass in a blur, until I’m already collapsed onto my couch with a familiar notif going off on my phone. Opening it proves it is exactly what I expected it to be, a message from him, asking me how my day has gone showing me more care than nearly every other person in my life ever has. Not expecting me to drop everything on a dime for him, even if recently he’s been getting more possessive in his messages like he wants to be serious when I’ve never seen his face. 
- I’ve been decent, met up with a friend. Not much really, you? - 
- Had to do chores for someone I don’t like >:( wanna get away from everything tbh - 
- why not just up and leave? - 
- I mean, it’s not like I haven’t been planning something - 
Seems like the possessive streak has worn off now then, so I don’t have to worry about mentioning friends again. There isn’t even a reason he should be possessive of me though, unless he’s got a secret crush or something. Which I hope he doesn’t, he’s been speaking to me for barely a couple of weeks. 
- You free to call tonight? It’s been a while. - 
- I’m good rn if you are. I’ll just grab my headphones - one sec - 
- :DD perf perf - 
Honestly a call will be nice, I can just zone out for a bit, play some games and chat. It’s the perfect way to destress after everything that happened earlier, I still can’t believe they threw away our friendship over something so small. Maybe I should just block their number and drop them even if they do try and apologise, I don’t really need people like that in my life. 
“So then love, any plans for tonight?”
“I thought you said you were gonna drop calling me that?”
“It’s silly and you didn’t answer my question anyway.”
“Nah not really. I’m just loading up breath of the wild, been a bit since I’ve -”
“Oh shit.”
Has wild been link this whole time, wait - how did he get access to the internet, HOW IS HE SENTIENT?  
He’s just sitting in his hateno house, holding the sheikah slate like a phone and silently, through the switch anyway, talking. The look of horror on his face is gut-wrenching though.
“You - you…”
“Oh - uh - I mean. Come on love it’s not that bad is it? I - I’m not going to hurt you, I swear.”
“I don’t think I want to deal with this right now… I’m sorry I just.”
The look of horror and shame shifted terrifyingly fast when he noticed me moving to turn off the switch, replacing itself with fear and anger before he steeled himself, and presses his hand against the slate’s screen?
He - he’s reached through my phone to grab onto my wrist. 
“No, don’t turn me off, I can’t go back to being just a voice. Please”
“How… how are you DOING THIS?”
“That… Isn’t what matters right now.”
His grip feels so nervous, he looks it too - which makes sense, I would probably be petrified if I lost my body just because I was trapped in a game. I can’t turn him off that would be cruel… he deserves better than that. 
It instantly lightened as I moved to sit back down, a sigh of relief echoing through both my tv speakers and my phone, as he let go the second I sat with his hand retreating through my unbroken phone. 
“Okay, you promise you won’t try to turn me off?”
“I won’t if you’ll explain.”
“That - that’s fair, I can do that for you love and - if I told you that I think I’ve figured out a way to get out? Would you let me live with you?”
“So that’s why you were so forward abou- yes you can. When you’ve explained everything. And made it certain you’re not planning to kill me because you’re scared of me sending you back.”
The reverb’s stopped now, which makes talking a lot more pleasant and less like he’s trying to intimidate me now, not that I blame him for it if I was about to condemn him back to that hellscape. I just, I really hope he isn’t trying to get out just to kill me, I don’t think I would ever be able to get over my childhood crush wanting to kill me even if he has every right to want that.
“What- No no I don’t - why - why would you think I would ever want to even hurt you let alone KILL. I - love I. I love you. That’s why I’m doing all of this - I - I.”
He’s crying. I should’ve known that he wouldn’t do anything like that - it’s within his right to - but he’s link, he’s the hero, the protagonist who was stuck to my side through it all. I know I shouldn’t have said that it wasn’t meant to be cruel but it was careless enough to hurt him. 
“I’m sorry, I came on to strong, you - you have every right to be scared of me. I promise though love I - I will never hurt you ever.”
“I know… I just panicked. You can explain now I won’t overreact again I swear. Or if you’d prefer -”
“If I would prefer..?”
“Why not get out first, then explain?”
Lighting up a firework in my face would have been less blinding than his smile in that moment, it’s such a sweet smile - a genuine one too. Meaning that I said the right thing, that I’m doing the right thing by giving him this chance. 
Hopefully, I won’t regret it.
“Really? You’ll let me do that?”
“I think it’s a good idea, it’ll be easier to talk to you as well. Just - how are you going to go this?”
“Um, oh, well uh, I think I could possibly make your switch into a mock version of a warp medallion? Then link my slate to it and just well”
“That makes sense, you can go ahead then, shouldn’t take long right?”
“No, no it won’t.”
A couple of seconds was all the wait it needed for him to stumble out of the blue lights and right onto me, clearly disorientated by the shift into reality. Probably not as bad as any of the 2d links would have struggled to be fair to him. It was an even shorter wait for him to jump onto me and cling even tighter than a koala could ever hope to, nuzzling up against my neck like it’s the only - because - it’s the only real touch he’s ever felt. 
“So you want to explain then?”
“Could we wait? That took much more effort than I thought. I just want to rest a bit if that’s alright.”
“As soon as you’re rested enough to. You going to sleep for a bit then?”
“No I still want to talk, just about something less taxing?”
Seems like he’s more dodging the topic than anything, which is fine I can get him to talk about it later, there really isn’t a rush for anything. It’s fine. Besides he’s like an excited kid that’s staying up way past his bedtime right now, where’s the harm in staying like this for a bit?
“Mind if I ask why you’re so determined to call me ‘love’ then?” 
“Because you’re everything to me, my light, my love, my life - you’ve been with me through everything. From when I woke to killing ganon and you didn’t abandon me there. You’ve shown me your favourite cities, stuck with me when you had the choice to choose others because you said I am you favourite, so really? How could I not love you?”
“You were aware even in Mariokart?” 
His giggle is sweet, he’s so charming right now, especially with how unaware of it he is. It’s so earnest and unfiltered, just so raw, I could go the rest of my life with that being the only thing I ever hear again. Compared to how he acted in cutscenes as well? He’s happy. Tired but happy.
“Oh before I forget, You should be expecting a delivery actually!”
“What.”
“I’ve been wanting to get out of the game for a while so I ordered some things to try make myself more appealing to you.”
“Like what? Link you didn't need to do anything like that.”
He just shrugged, seems like I won’t be getting an answer to that till whatever arrives whenever it does. Seems he really wasn’t lying about being tired though, he’s already starting to fall asleep laying against me like this. Thankfully he’s light enough to move to a more comfortable position, although theres nothing I can do about how tightly he’s holding me and truthfully? There’s nothing I want to do about it.
“Y’know I think I could get used to this.”
“Yo’ will I pr’mise, I’ll make you addicted to m’.”
“Well that isn’t ominous at all… and you’re already asleep.”

@stevebuckythyla replied to your post “can we talk about the ableism/sexism of people...”:
Yes! Also it drives me nuts when people insist Bucky must be a Dom in the future because of trauma. Like there’s a fundamental misunderstanding there of D/s dynamics as subs are really the ones with the most “power” in the relationship. Like as a sub Bucky is in control of what Steve is or isn’t allowed to ask of him.
Also drives me nuts when people say Bucky must be the top cuz of trauma too and needs to have control. It’s so heteronormative and also misogynistic tbh because they’re seeing bottoming as like this weaker position (“the woman”) Like you never see anyone insist that a woman absolutely must be the top in a relationship with a man after she’s experienced trauma.
The ableism towards pre-serum Steve drives me crazy. For all the reasons you said but also because some people treat pre-serum Steve like he was so delicate and weak because of his disabilities. Like do they not remember that CATFA showed us that despite Steve’s disabilities he was able to do factory work, got beat up in an ally and was just fine afterwards, and completed basic army training?? Like topping is obviously something that would not be beyond his physical capabilities 🙄
​All of this is really important, and because I didn't touch on a lot of this in my post, I really want to highlight it in its own post.
People have a fundamental misunderstanding of D/s dynamics (and BDSM in general), of top/bottom dynamics, and the impact of trauma on one's sexual expression.
These misunderstandings and misrepresentations come from a lack of education in these topics (often taking unhealthy depictions of these dynamics in erotic fiction as fact and never looking further), combined with social expectations, are deeply rooted in heteronormativity, homophobia, sexism, and ableism.
Where does "who's the man and who's the woman?" which is targeted at visibly queer couples come from? It's an inability to conceive of "acceptable" sexual roles outside of:
Woman: to be submissive and be the one penetrated, both are inherently degrading and dehumanizing
Man: to be dominant and be the one penetrating, anything else is inherently emasculating and "womanly"
and applying these harmful and narrow gendered expectations to all couples regardless of gender/actual preferences, while stigmatizing and shaming anyone who does not fit this mold (look how people talk about men who like getting 'pegged').
Especially in M/M relationships, the ridiculousness and oppressiveness of these expectations and assumptions is clear once you have done the internal work to understand sex isn't bound by this binary.
Bottoming or being submissive (since these two don't always go hand in hand, bottoms can be dominant and tops can be submissive, and you can bottom or top without there behind D/s dynamics involved at all) isn't inherently womanly or degrading, it's just a way of participating in and enjoying sex.
Topping or being dominant isn't inherently manly or empowering, it's just a way of participating in and enjoying sex.
Disabled people are often stripped of our ability to be allowed to exist as sexual beings, we are seen as undesirable and/or as incapable of enjoying or being an active participant in sex.
Disabled men whose disabilities lead to them physically not fitting into social expectations of what a man "should" look like are often heavily emasculated and denied the possibility they could take a dominant role, especially if their partner is able-bodied.
The conversation around D/s dynamics and trauma recovery is incredibly nuanced.
Trauma survivors can still enjoy bottoming and sexual submission after trauma (not all survivors do and I do not want to erase their existence), but there is a strong resistance to and stigmatization of the people for who this is true due to the assumption that it's degrading.
Many trauma survivors find healing, empowerment and enjoyment in handing over the reins to someone they trust in a controlled environment that relies on their total consent. It also heavily relies on healthy/open communication between partners and following D/s play with aftercare.
There is a lot of information out there on the benefits of healthy exploration of kink on recovery. It's important that, instead of making assumptions on the impacts of trauma on sexual expression, people listen to the lived experiences of survivors.
Sorry if this is rambly, I just have a lot of thoughts 😅

Hey! I adore following your art and it so inspires me to draw as well. So thank you for your work. I wanted to ask how you imagine Magneto in your style and what impact he has on your Scott's story or character, if any. The Uncanny X-Men Comics around the Nation X era where the two develop a super interlinked dynamic have always been super interesting so I was wondering.
thank you!!
hmm well i have posted magneto i think exactly twice, as part of a commission (x) and as part of a gift (x). the gift was done this year so its probably more indicative of how he'd look in my style, but also i think my art has been changing a lot in the last couple of months. i like magneto, but he is not one of the characters infesting my brain and motivating longer projects, so i just draw him more rarely. even in stuff i don't post.
tbh the nation x stuff (as w a lot of stuff post-2000s) is kind of a big blind spot w me. i just kind of bounce off superhero nation stuff i think no matter who's involved. but i do like the bit of stuff i have read concerning magneto and scott.
i think earlier magneto spends a lot of time thinking of scott (and the original five x-men) as like. extensions of xavier. like he cares about his relationship to xavier and his philosophical and political opposition to xavier and anything scott says politically doesn't get filtered through as scott's position so much as xavier's position as stated by a particularly rigid and kind of harsh student. i think this basically bc magneto has a tendency to talk through the other x-men to charles when he's in villain mode, and also bc in my mind stuff like god loves man kills does position scott as an extension of xavier. like. scott's the true believer here. he doesn't doubt, even when charles himself does. the way magneto comes to see scott as his own person with his own political ideas is really cool to me, and i enjoy seeing the like. backing magneto has for scott? it feels like it is founded on this decades long non-relationship of seeing scott and the x-men continue, which is then helped along by a new closer relationship.
ig my thinking on how magneto impacted scott is like...not very much on an interpersonal level, for a long time. like they just didn't actually know each other that well at all, and scott's really into adopting some of xavier's position as pretty like. rigid rules. like scott is more uptight than charles is. i think magneto largely operates not as a person but as an idea for him to orient himself against and also a threat that sometimes tries to kill him/ kill other people/ make scott's day worse in some other way.
i think in general scott is kind of confused by magneto?? on an interpersonal level?? which is part of what makes their later dynamic fun to me. the idea that scott can continue to be confused and frustrated w magneto even as they become much closer and be like oh ok. this isn't an x-men vs magneto thing, you are just kind of annoying and confusing on purpose. he's just kind of like that. i think after you get into utopia and afterward scott clearly comes to value magneto's opinion more, but before that magneto's not even a guy to scott he's just this like. nebulous idea of what scott is against and also scott does not like him.

finished rereading. couple of thoughts:
since it's the freshest in my mind, i have to say the ending of rwrb remains absolutely devastatingly cathartic, this alternate reality where the events of 2016 and beyond in this world didn't happen. i remember my first time reading it, like actually sobbing because the trump election still felt so fresh and painful and raw, and that final scene where they flip texas, my home state, really really hit home.
which is another bullet point on my long list of grievances with the film. that scene was just. not nearly on the emotional level as the book. it was supposed to be this like. grand build-up. and instead it fell flat for me. it was too short, too condensed.
which, frankly, i think that's essentially what i disliked about the film overall. it was way, way too condensed. and look, i get it, you're crunching down a 418 page book into 2 hours, they have to cut stuff out. but they cut out. everything. they took the handful of scenes with henry and alex and cut everything else out like it was all just superfluous to their romance. JUNE. june was gone!!! alex's sister who looked out for him and who knew him better than he knew himself, who had such a huge role in the book, was nixed from existence. i can't fathom why. nora and pez and bea were there, but barely. there was no "white house trio" or "super six" or very much at all of alex's or henry's friendships outside of each other?
rafael luna, someone alex looked up to immensely, the blueprint of the man alex wanted to be, a senator who was like him, a queer latino in politics for the genuine desire to do good, whose seeming betrayal cut alex to the core, but through whom the corruption of richards was revealed? he also was nonexistent in the film. instead of that entire arc, richards' scheme to publicly forcibly out alex and henry's relationship, luna's role in helping bring that all to light, was replaced by....... some reporter guy that alex hooked up with once, who it is implied is the villain behind outing alex and henry. with no, like, explanation whatsoever. jealousy, i guess. gay guy jealous, outs guy he liked because he didn't hook up with him again? because he's a skeevy reporter who doesn't care? what the hell kind of story is that. queer on queer violence easier to put in film, i guess, than the story of corrupt republican candidate (also sexual predator) who wants to crush democratic encumbent president so has his team hack private email server and then leaks all the alex-henry emails to the public and pays people to get hotel footage and take photos to back it up. i literally just. can't understand this change whatsoever. it feels gross. tbh.
the whole plot is just so off. it doesn't even feel like the same story in a lot of ways? the ending of the movie is actually, legitimately nonsensical. they're publicly outed and alex i guess decides of his own accord to like. make a public speech confirming their relationship? this is while he and henry haven't been able to talk, communication lockdown, no conversations with henry whatsoever to even ask if he'd be okay with confirming their relationship like that. (book alex would ne-ver go public without explicit consent and support from henry) and then afterward the king is like "oh well technology these days, they can fake photos and emails" my dude the first son already announced it live on tv. there's no choice to be made there. you can't say "it was all faked" when alex claremont-diaz already told the world it was not fake. lmfao.
there is one thing -- JUST ONE THING -- that i appreciate about the film. and that is leaving out all the h*rry p*tter references. (to be fair, the book was written before the infamous transphobic twitter spiral, and also casey mcquiston, the author, has since actually removed the hp/jkr references in her book. which. bless. i didn't actually know that until i looked it up right now. i ought to buy a newer version.)
anyway. the book is really, really good. it offered me great escapism the first time i read it. it offers me comfort now rereading it. the movie........... was not it. there were certainly pretty men kissing and boning in it so if that's what you're looking for it's fine. (although i hold that alex's actor does not look like alex to me, which was actually one of the reasons i didn't initially want to watch, on a petty note) but as far as the meat of the story, the heart of it, the depth of it, it just wasn't there.
but it did get me to reread the book, so at least there's that.

dove I am once again terribly sorry for sending the request so late and I wanna thank you for doing one for me☹️☹️
1) ok I pick jujutsu kaisen :)) (diverting from haikyuu and bllk for once)
2) I'll send the pic in the next ask that I send
3) male and uhh teenage or adult both are fine by me :D

5) I think I'd say I'm friendly and get very comfortable with you once we get close like I will start yapping and not stop. I can be a bit annoying at times I feel but not very much. I am willing to listen to my friends and I try my best to give advice wherever possible. I think I'm also very supportive and can be good to hang out with once you know me. Idk my mbti I'm sorry:( I'm a Sagittarius go by she/her and I like listening to people talk about their interests and I send to many reels to my friends (also very chronically online) I am not very athletic but am more into reading and I love watching movies and tv shows.
6) I love reading, listening to music, making hot chocolate or ramen as those are the only things I can make, writing stories and sometimes poetry, talking to my friends about anything and watching reels. I also like hiking with my sister :D and exploring new cafes and restaurants and aesthetic places. I love travelling and I love eyeliner.
7) ok dream date hmmm cliche but like art museum dates!!! I'd love to go to an art museum and just hang around and then get ice cream afterwards. A cafe date sounds good too tbh. Extra points if it's like a pet cafe or a cat cafe.

⋆⭒˚。⋆ chemistry analysis . . .
initially, when i was reading through your personality traits, my first thought was gojo. you two seem really similar, which is why i redirected myself to geto...i feel like gojo with someone akin to himself would be a disaster (lol). you and geto are extremely compatible, for many reasons other than your similarities to gojo— in fact, you and geto are a no-brainer match.
obviously, with your shared qualities with gojo, you and geto are bound to get along without a doubt. when geto is silent, he enjoys the volume you bring to a room; finding great comfort in hearing your voice above all others as he knows that you're speaking about something you're passionate about. he's not necessarily the most outgoing individual, so having you to get him out of his shell is of utmost importance. he can rely on you for support in social settings, as well as whenever he's in need for a laugh.
with geto's insecurities and avoidance of acknowledging his struggles, it's great that he has you to talk to. since you're willing to lend an ear and sit down with him when he needs to vent, geto feels seen. he feels like there's someone who actually cares about what's going on in his mind. he often asks you for advice on how to handle the difficult situations he has, and you're there to tell him what's right and what's wrong; ultimately leading him away from a fate that could potentially be fatal.
it's doubtful that geto is on his phone often, but when he is he enjoys scrolling through the mass amounts of reels you send him. normally, he'd be annoyed by this— if it were gojo, he'd probably mute his profile for a period of time before his best friend learned his lesson— but you're an exception. his favorite time of night is when he's alone, snuggled in bed, and gets to watch a curated feed of all your interests and the things you find funny. sometimes he can almost image the sound of your laughter beside him, and it makes his heart feel warmer by the minute.
the quiet days in which you're together are the best, though. geto loves to relax with you on the couch while you watch your favorite television show. he especially loves the little comments you make about your favorite characters when he gets confused by the storyline. sometimes, when you get hungry, he makes the kitchen his territory; quickly getting together a home-cooked meal that leaves your mouth watering for more. he's an amazing chef, yet still loves to try the new cafes in town whenever you find yourself excited for a new opening. he loves enjoying the little things with you. every second counts. every moment is cherished.

"baby, c'mon you gotta get up." you can faintly hear your boyfriend's voice though the midst of sleep as he gently nudges you awake. however, geto's efforts are sadly failing, your eyes fluttering open and closed; leaving him to his last resort: peppering your face in kisses.
his lips touch your nose, your cheek, your forehead, and lastly, your lips. what a romantic.
"i'm awake, i swear." lifting one eye open, you softly smile at him. his handsome face is a mere two inches from your own with stars in his gaze. he always looks at you as if you're some sort of astral phenomenon; a once in a lifetime comet that only he has the pleasure of looking at. "did i miss the ending?" you definitely missed the ending of the movie.
geto nods, laughing lightly, before lifting you off of the leather couch. his arms wrap around your body in a protective way, hands on your thighs and chin nestled atop your head.
"i love you so much, suguru." you murmur, slowly waking up from the deep slumber you were consumed by. "i'm sorry i fell asleep, i know how excited you were to watch it with me."
he kisses your forehead as you reach the bedroom, with the billowing curtains and sun showers through the windows, the image is so serene. it's almost as if you could stay in this place and relax forever with geto by your side. slowly, he lowers you onto the bed— his large figure leaning over you— and begins covering you in kisses once more. chin. shoulder. chest. he clearly has plans that are going to keep you up for the next few hours.
"i love you too, baby."

Oh! I wanted to ask you something about that! (Gaiden it is)
The moment Suigetsu made that test that showed that Sakura’s not the mom, but Karin, Naruto overheard it and said something like “Sasuke, you bastard” and then he was angry at him.
It was always so interesting to me. Because it’s obvious that it’s not about the cheat. I mean he’s not the woman in this marriage, if it wasn’t Sakura’s then she knew. So, what was Naruto angry about? Not telling him? Not telling Sarada? Like…??? Definitely not for Sakura’s sake.
Or is it just me not seeing something?
No you're 100% right. I already explained it in an ask, but I can't find it. Naruto's reaction had nothing to do with Sakura. In fact, we could make a whole other post about the change in their relationship from children going into adulthood. What a farce.
Intended, but still.
Naruto was angry because Suigetsu handled the situation very directly and in an insensitive way. That's how the story goes at least and tbh that's all there is to it at face value because afterwards the caption says that Sarada is in despair, Naruto tries to cheer her up.. again. He's fuming for her sake.
Tumblr media
Suigetsu even admits it.
But.
I noticed something else and I haven't seen anyone talk about it yet, lemme know what you think..
This is interesting. (to me lol)
It doesn't help that all the circumstances were against Naruto. (Being in Orochimaru's hide-out, all the story conflicts, etc-) It's funny, kinda, that Sasuke didn't even bother to keep an eye on Sarada who wandered off in that place especially considering his history, but Naruto noticed. During the entire story he looked out for her and tried his best to cheer her up. But Naruto with Sage mode could easily have found Sarada right away and yet, between him noticing she's gone and the panel of him listening in there are 3 pages(!)
Tumblr media
[[insert 3 Manga pages of them testing~~~~~]]
Tumblr media
So the question is, why was Naruto just silently listening in? If he really just was angry for Sarada's sake as the story tells us.. (again, this has nothing to do with Sakura).. then why didn't he stop Suigetsu from talking before it got worse?
Does Kishimoto want me to believe that Naruto calmly came to stand behind that wall only at the end of the revelation? Yeah right- no. We know how fast Naruto is, how quickly he can find people with Sage-mode. Meaning... he heard everything, he listened in and he let it happen. So why didn't he stop them before the actual test?
He either really believed Sakura is the mother and so didn't see any problems ahead or was too stunned/curious to interfere.
I still believe he was angry for Sarada, but he was also angry for himself. I believe Sasuke hasn't told Naruto anything regarding Sarada. That he knows nothing because of this one panel only and why would he?
When it comes to their "wives" and "kids" they don't communicate which should tell you already a whole lot. Naruto didn't know Sarada had never seen her dad and Sasuke didn't even know 'Boruto's name at the beginning of the sequel..
But they still do talk and often meet up. He shouts at Sasuke that they're "gonna have words later"
Tumblr media
.. and they continue to fight like a married couple.. lmaooo. So I just think it was a lot for Naruto to take in also and it has nothing to do with "cheating" or Sakura. And everything with Sarada in despair as the caption says, the way Suigetsu dealt with it and him feeling a certain way about it all.

lies | j.m. | part three
masterlist
JJ Maybank x Routledge!Reader x Best Friend!OC 
A/N: Hey, y’all! So I’m back to writing this series. I know it’s been forever. But tbh I’ve just been really busy with school and work and all.  But now it’s summer and I have a tad bit more free time. Plus I still don’t have a new laptop just yet, but I've resorted to using my janky ass PC. I’m going to try to start writing a lot more now. I’ve got a new Stranger Things rewrite series in the works, so you can keep an eye out for that. :) 
Warnings: Cursing, Lying, Drinking, Sorta Cheating?, A tiny bit of arguing, and probably some typos. 
Word Count: 1.0k
Summary: Instead of rejecting your friend, you tell him you’re taken, which is a complete and total lie. Now that he’s asking to meet this so-called boyfriend of yours, you’re going to need someone to play the role of your imaginary love interest.
One thing that the pogues know how to do over the summer was party.
It’s what your brother and his friends were known for— throwing the best keggers in all of the outer banks.
So, tonight, to kick off the start of the summer, they decided to throw a huge one at the boneyard. And, of course, this was one that you and your friends weren’t going to miss.
Like all of the parties you and your friends went to, Kassi invited you over to get ready at her place. She always uses the excuse that she needs a second opinion for her outfit, but you never end up being much help.
Kassi had just got finished putting together the finishing touches for her outfit as you sat on the edge of her bed, watching her. “How are you and JJ doing?” She asked out of the blue. It’s been a little less than a week since Kassi and Julien met JJ, and neither of them had brought him up much.
“We’re doing good. Why do you ask?” 
“I don’t know. You haven’t talked about him much. He’s going to be at the party right?” She asked, straightening out the pink dress she had finally decided on wearing.
“Yeah, he is. He’ll be helping run the keg stand.” 
She just nodded, turning to look at you. “You ready to go?”
“Yep, I’ve been ready.”
--
After stopping to pick up Julian (who had been waiting half an hour for the two of you to arrive), you all finally arrived at the boneyard.
Kassi was the first to speak up. “Okay, Julian and I can go grab drinks, and you can go find your boyfriend, (y/n).”
You nodded, about to say a ‘Got it’ and begin searching for JJ when Julian interrupted. “Wait a second, is that him over there?” He asked pointing to JJ, dancing with a random touron in the middle of the sea of people. “What the hell is he doing?”
“No clue.” He was about to stomp down the boneyard to give JJ a piece of his mind before you pushed past him to do it yourself.
Once you finally reached JJ, you grabbed his arm and pulled him away from the blonde girl that he was dancing closely with. “What the hell?” JJ cursed as you continued to tug on his arm.
“What the fuck are you doing?” You asked him sternly, giving him an angry glare.
“I’m having fun. It’s a party. What am I supposed to be doing?”
“You’re supposed to be pretending to be my boyfriend. You can’t keep acting like you’re single, JJ.” You argued with him, hoping that none of your friends were near to hear you.
JJ rolled his eyes, annoyed at the conversation. “But, that’s the thing, (y/n), I am single. I’m going to want to have fun with hot tourons when I get the chance.”
“Not when my friends are here to see it. We had a deal, remember?” You raised your voice at him.
“Yeah, the deal was to pretend to be your boyfriend for one night. And I did; your friends believed it. The deal is over.”
You rolled your eyes at him, not understanding how he could be so dumb. “We can’t act like we’re dating, then pretend we’re not after a couple of days. They’ll know it was all a lie.”
“Maybe you shouldn’t have lied in the first place, then!” JJ yelled but immediately felt bad about it afterward. He looked around, running a hand through his blonde hair before looking back over at you. “Look, I’ll pretend for a little bit longer, but at the end of the month, we can pretend we broke up or something. Deal?”
You thought it over. It wasn’t a bad idea. After a month, the breakup wouldn’t seem too suspicious. Plus, you guys could think of something dramatic to fake-breakup over.
“Fine, deal.”
--
You both continued to party, together this time. Thankfully, your friends didn’t ask too many questions about the previous situation or your conversation with JJ. Though, Julian did share some disapproving looks toward JJ. You could tell he already started to change his opinion about him but didn’t want to bring it up just yet.
After some drinking, dancing, and a short but fun game of truth or dare, you all decided it was time to go home. Kassi jumped into the driver’s seat (sober obviously) with you and Julian in the back seat and a touron that Kassi had met in the passenger’s seat.
The car ride was quiet for a while until Julian finally broke the silence. “I don’t trust JJ.” He stated, shortly, staring forward.
“Why not?” You asked though you knew the answer.
He finally looked over at you, giving you a look that said ‘are you fucking stupid.’ “Because who in their right mind would dance that close to a random tourist when he’s already dating an amazing, beautiful girl? And then, you both acted like it never happened the entire rest of the night. It just doesn’t make sense to me.” He rambled on, too drunk, and not to mention angry, to care that he just called you amazing and beautiful to your face. “I don’t know, he just seems like he’s lying about something.”
You nodded along. His thought process made sense. In reality, he had every right not to trust JJ, but you had to keep lying to him. Just until the end of the month when this would all blow over. “I already talked with him. It was just a misunderstanding.” You drank way too much to think of a more elaborate lie, so you stuck with that.
“That’s bullshit. I don’t believe it.” He shook his head. There’s no way you were going to convince him to like JJ. But that was fine because you didn’t have to. You just had to convince him the relationship was real. And that seemed to be working so far. He sighed, staring in front of him to the back of Kassi’s seat. “Listen, I don’t like him. But, I’ll tolerate him for now… for you.”
--
a/n again: sooo, this one is short. And kinda bad. But, I hope you like it. I kinda wanted to add in some drama for this one. I hope it turned out okay. I didn’t really know how to end it tbh.

sorry i wont shut up about this but i feel so conflicted right now!!D; and maybe typing it all out will help???
and I highly suggest to not read this unless you want to be here for an hour reading nonsense LOL
im seeing my bestie friday so im gonna tell her everythinggg and get her opinion on all of this before i see him again in a few days.
i just started to hang out with a "new" friend but it makes my bf uncomfortable and idk what to do about it... and tbh im not going to stop being friends with them:/ ik that sounds kinda shitty on the surface but its like asking me to cut someone off right after getting to know them.
im gonna explain almost all of the context....
okay, so... 2020 was a ruff year. it was covid and quarantine. my mom was super super strict about it. once people began to hang out in small circles bc cdc said it was okay to, while still being careful, i was still not allowed to leave my house. i felt soso isolated and alone and it was def one of my lowest moments. me & my bf were basically in a long distance relationship.. or thats what it felt like. all we had was facetime. he started to hang out with his friend from school more often (i had stuff to say to him about that & its in another post). after a couple of months, my mom finally let us see each other.. but it had to be in my backyard only and we couldn't be close. it was okay at first but after a while we got bored and wanted more. he got impatient and petty about it. i understood where he was coming from but i was trying to be as optimistic as i could, even tho it was hard. its bc even for like the 1-2 hrs i got to see him, it made my day. (my friends were also starting to hangout in their backyards but i never told my mom bc i figured she wouldnt let me go.. but when i told her afterwards, she said she would have..??)
it was getting colder outside which made it harder for us to see each other. it was also just a sucky situation and it was creating some resentment. he wanted to talk with me on ft about it and i knew it would be serious. AND IT WAS. he did most of the talking and it was leading to a breakup. BUT (this is important) he couldnt for the life of him break up with me, let alone say the words.. SO.. he suggested that we do a break. neither of us have done that before but its obvious that it means its temporary and you use that time to figure things out and get some space (we DEFINITELY shouldve been clearer about it). he got emotional and i held mine in. he was saying all these good things about me and how he still wants me in his life and that we can get together again; that we would still talk everyday and be friends. at the time, weve been dating for about a year and a half. right after we hung up i bawled my eyes out and immediately facetimed my best friend in FL.
days go by and me and him are still talking everyday, only in a more friendly, platonic manner. eventually, he starts replying later and later, he turns off his location, and its like i feel forgotten about. im so used to knowing what hes doing that now it feels weird to not know and its hard to adapt to these changes.
I download tinder to find some FRIENDS to talk to (only for girls). he was barely talking to me and i was questioning our friendship relationship (situationship i guess). although i dont remember the details of my profile, i DEF made it clear that i was on there for making friends only. i had no intention of pursuing anyone for a relationship... bc i had my "bf" still. HE clearly went a diff route during our break....too much to unpack there but in the end, it just made him want to come back to me.
So.... Snow (that is their nickname ive given them for tumblr) was one of those people who i chatted with on tinder. theyre female but identify as they/them (i dont think they used those pronouns when we first started talking tho). they msgd first and our convo was actually really long-lasting so we followed each other on IG. (theyre also not the only one i've exchanged IG with so its not like i only gave it to them). Yes, I thought they were pretty when i swiped. sue me. i think many people are pretty. its just me acknowledging when someones aesthetically pleasing. eventually, we talked less and i also went on tinder less. After about a month into me and my bfs break, he begins to talk to me more like he used to. Then he asks if he can see me bc he missed me. Still cant leave my house with him but we hang out and its nice. HE ASKS ME IF I MET ANYONE NEW. i say no and hes like ...really?you sure? I ask him the same and he says no (while breaking eye contact,, literal red flag but i was blindsided). he tells me the truth over FT and that ruined me way more than i let on. (i think he's feeling a similar way now but for diff reasons)
we got back together after and the rest of the year (2021) was super fun. weve now been together for almost 4 1/2 years! since our BREAK NOT BREAKUP (not me @ ing him when he wont even see this) me and snow comment on each others IG posts now and again. for ex, ive said they looked so prettyyy & i would compliment their makeup skills. they would reply in a cute/flattery way. thats how they reply to comments. theyre also very embellished, like with emojis. theyve commented on my pics saying i look cute and hyping me up with compliments as well. it just turned into a natural, mutual thing; idk how else to describe it. its like having an online friend where you only interact thru the comments to show kindness. LOL IDK that sounds corny but yeah. girly things i guess. & then irl its so subdued.
so aside from the comments, we would react to each others stories like once in a blue moon. they posted about watching demon slayer so i said its a good anime. i posted me and my bfs halloween costumes and they said we looked so cute. fast fwd to the end of last yr... we said happy bday to each other and i brought up the idea of possibly hanging out one day if theyre down. so yes, i asked first. they said they would love to and that they were glad i asked bc they were too anxious to ask themselves (mood). im surprised at myself that i even asked but i guess i felt comfortable enough.
(i feel like im writing my own biography omg..) anyways, we get each others numbers and talk about our schedules. we were both very busy so nothing happened. we sporadically made small talk, as one does with their internet friend, over a couple of months. we talked on IG more & also thought about the plans for when we hang out. its now like almost summer and they text me asking if i was free last minute to hang out bc they were gonna be in my town but i was busy.
its now like a month later and i see them at the mall with their friend when i was with my bf. (i already spoke about this so i wont repeat it). after that day, we finally made a day to hang out. bf wasnt happy about it; i tried to reassure him; he saw and still sees them as someone to worry about; he thinks im gonna do something stupid and act out on any fantasies i may have. he knows im bi; he sees snow as someone who looks queer. he thinks that our intentions are to get closer to each other in a way that crosses a friendship.
he saw me listening to a playlist titled sapphic energy. it just consists of songs i enjoy by female artists and ive had that playlist for a long time now. i only edited the title.. but just now i switched it back to what it was before so thats ONE thing "fixed" to make him at ease.
he doesnt believe me when i tell him that my only intention and motive here is to make a good, new friendship. THATS ALL I WANT. AND THATS ALL SNOW WANTS. i can see how it can look like its more from an outside perspective bc of our IG comments but it was not like that in person at all!! it just felt like hanging out with a friend and introducing new things to each other like shows and foods. snow even made it clear that once someone is their friend, they cant see them any other way and that formed to protect their feelings. when we hung out there were literally no signs of feelings or anything that would cross boundaries. i didnt get that feeling i get when i have a crush and lose all my brain cells. by our second hang out we were past any awkwardness and it felt like a regular day out with a friend.
I did look cute that day but i always dress up!!! i dress up like every time i see my bf. i dress up for work. i dress up when im going out with friends. i enjoy fashion and makeup and looking pretty,,
last yr he was using bumble friends and he met up with a guy but they havent hung out since. ive helped him swipe on people before and i was okay with it, except when it was like an attractive girl.. would that be hypocritical of me tho?...idk. we def both get kinda jealous over these things. i can get territorial, like he is mine lol i am his. we would never be open or add a third and the thought of him befriending new females made me nervous. especially after what happened during our break. like idk, that still sticks with me and makes me think of bad feelings..and even more especially now after finding out about what he and his friend did.. but me feeling nervous about that is like what HE is feeling (T-T) I JUST DONT KNOW WHAT I CAN DO TO HELP AND IT SUCKS. i dont think i catch feelings easily. i dont get butterflies over people easily. im not an openly sexual person.
like. am i being unfair by continuing this friendship? snow doesnt know how he feels about us. idek if its worth telling but im gonna wait till more time passes and see how things go. would him hanging out with us make him feel better?? would it be too weird? he already doesnt like the idea of snow so how would he be in a room with them.
i wanna fast fwd to friday so i can tell my bestie about it and then fast fwd to sunday so i can see him. he is still not back to his usual self when we talk on snap. he tries to save serious confrontations for in person bc he sounds angry thru text so even tho itll make me nervous, i still wanna work this out so it doesnt ruin our relationship.

Jessica Jones taking care of you while you're on your period
Tumblr media
A/N: periods suck :/ also the reader's gender is never specified so this can be read by anyone who has a uterus and experiences their monthly gift from hell
Warnings: mentions of periods/menstrual cycles, cramps (they deserve their own warning tbh), talk of menstruation products, slight swearing, brief mention of alcohol
Jessica's really weird about periods
Like, you know she gets them, but the only time she ever mentions anything to do with them is when she runs out of pads or tampons or something and has to go out to get more
She's the type of person to down a bottle of Advil and just try to grit through the pain, so you won't even know she's having one unless she flat out tells you
If you're like her, then she won't spend a lot of time on the subject
Not because periods disgust her or anything, she's just got better things to do than sit around talking about them and whether or not she has a heavy flow
She'll tell you where she keeps her period products and to let her know when you run out and be done with it
If you're the exact opposite of her, however, then oh boy
Obviously she's not the best when it comes to comforting people, because she's not a very touchy feely person in general
Also Jessica doesn't like most people enough to care about trying to comfort them lmao
But with you, she's different
Sure, she's still a little standoffish, but at least she tries
When she saw you stagger into her office one morning, blanket wrapped around you, she didn't know what to think until you looked at her and say, "I just started my period"
She left you alone at first, thinking you'd be more content that way
It wasn't until she went to check on you a couple hours later and you asked if she'd cuddle with you that she realized you'd actually prefer her company
She was about to mumble out how she had to work on a case, but the hopeful look in your eyes caused her to respond with something completely unexpected
"Yeah, sure"
She ended up staying in bed with you for the rest of the day, although she did end up taking her laptop with her so she could keep working
Whenever your cramps get bad she makes sure you're stocked with a hot water bottle and plenty of chocolate, because as much as a hardass she may be Jessica hates seeing you in pain
If you ever run out of pads/tampons/any other sort of period product, she'll go out and get you some more (along with another bottle of booze for her)
Overall, she's really not that bad at taking care of you when you really need it
Just don't bring it up afterwards, she has a reputation to uphold

i just reached 1990s spider-man comics. almost halfway there in terms of years, definitely not in terms of comics though (i guess there were a TON in the 90s, and the 60s was pretty much just amazing spider-man which meant it had the fewest)
i'd heard before starting the 80s ones that that was widely considered the best decade for spider-man comics, and it certainly lived up to it. roger stern's run was really good, hobgoblin was a pretty interesting villain up until they screwed up at the end after 4 years because the people making the comics all had different opinions on who should be under the mask and were even sabotaging each other (instead of just using the guy who was originally supposed to be him. which i guess got fixed via retcon in the late 90s)
secret wars was pretty good (only because the heroes and villains involved largely weren't that interested in playing the beyonder's game, and dr doom derailing the whole thing made it interesting)
and secret wars ii asked the question of "hey wouldn't it be fucked up if there was a guy who had unlimited power to do anything and he just wanted to try to figure out what his place was in a universe he could fundamentally change with a whim" and yeah it was fucked up. and that's what made this one interesting
also we finally have people who know spider-man is peter parker and don't either die or lose their memory soon afterward, which was the case for like 20 years. mary jane comes back after being completely absent from the comics for a couple years or so, and reveals she'd known peter was spider man "for years" (later revealed to be since the night uncle ben died, which was long before they'd even met) and then peter has someone to talk to about spider stuff
anyway. 90s had a lot going on. i guess there's more symbiote stuff (venom was introduced in 1988, carnage should probably be on his way soon), and then there's infinity gauntlet/war/crusade which if anything should be better than what the mcu did with them
and then there's the infamous clone saga which apparently lasted about 2 years, and with 4 ongoing monthly series ("spider-man" starts in 1990) that'd mean about 100 comics? yeah no wonder people got tired of that. i'll see how it goes though
also i'm reading about other spider-people too (keeping an eye on appearances of jessica drew and julia carpenter, the two spider-women so far, as well as reading spider-ham on the side--a few more 5-page stories and he's gone until like 2010) so i'll be starting 2099 after i get into 1992
tbh even if the 90s and newer comics arent as good, the fact that i'll be reading stuff from within my lifetime should probably do something for my enjoyment of them. like yeah the 80s ones were great but it still had that "this was before my time" quality to it you know

so i met this girl a while back through my local bdsm group, just from social meetings at a bar, we were kinda friendly with each other and eventually ended up playing together (my first time actually trying that), during which some Feelings ignited for me i guess. thought maybe she was kinda flirting with me afterward, like flirting flirting, outside of play, she kept looking at me and no one had ever looked at me that way before. is this what the songs were talking about? but i was like...... no way. she's outta my league, i don't dare make a move
but luckily SHE did, thank god, she asked me out and i was like he'll yeah. she moved out of town in that time and i left the country for vacation (had the time of my frickin LIFE btw but that's another story), so it wasn't until this last weekend she was able to come down here for the date.
man i'm 30 in a couple months and i hadn't done shit in regards to romance, like i'd been on first dates with people from dating apps that went no further and that's it. the single exception was this girl a few years back who was clearly into me after the first date so i tried seeing her for a few months hoping i'd develop some feelings, but i just.... didn't. couldn't. felt terrible about it but i wouldn't let her kiss me and i let her hug me only reluctantly. idk why but i was just NOT into it even though i felt like, here is someone who finally wants me for the first time, i should take what i can get, right. but i couldn't do it, not even for that
so i felt like, you know, the part of me that always tries to prepare for the worst to protect myself, surely this won't go any further, either. at best we have a fine time but i get yet another "didn't feel a connection." whatever that means, tbh i wasn't sure i'd recognize a connection or if i'd even ever felt one except with my very close friends. but i'd also had this feeling, even from the time we'd played together, that this girl would end up being my first kiss. like again i expected it to like, not go well or lead to anything though, and then we'd like awkwardly decide to be friends after all this and that'd be the end of it
but she got down here and things just kind of..... unfolded naturally, believe it or not. i kinda couldn't believe it. i thought i'd be more nervous or hesitant about everything, but when you're on the same page with someone i guess it just kinda happens, we kissed. i never knew how i'd react to kissing, like would it be gross? but it wasn't gross at all, it felt clean. idk man. i was uncertain in the sense of like, i'm not entirely sure what i'm doing or how to steer the kissing course, but not about whether i felt good about it. like emotionally i knew what i wanted to do, it was just a matter of physically coordinating it, i'm clumsy you know. same for when i held her the first time, we laughed a lot fumbling and trying to get our bodies into position, but it felt fun and not awkward.
so by the end of the night we were girlfriends. can't believe i was so comfortable just being close to someone like that, things are never like that for me. idk man. never thought any of this would ever happen to me. it really is never too late, i guess

I get so annoyed at the comparisons of Lokius to fluffy ship Ineffable Husbands (Good Omens) because they have nothing in common. And there really should be more fic exploring the abusive dynamics of Lokius. And ok, I admit I don't like cutesy ships like Ineffable Husbands much either way, but it's such a shame Lokius has so little tasty fucked up content and most fics are boring fluff. And people like OW so much they hardly ever make Mobius the perpetrator. I've seen fics were Ravonna made them do it or another Loki (usu. President) or EVEN TVA!Loki were the perpetrators and those options just rub me the wrong way. Lokius fandom is so quick to make Ravonna irredeemable (but not pure bean Mobius) and the power imbalance is not on the favor of the Lokis (the abuse and literal torture excused from Mobius while Sylvie gets called abusive for calling Loki a clown and trying to complete her life's mission... smdh).
The main issue, I think, is that "the Discourse" is so fraught and neverending that people either hate Mobius and everything connected to him and so they won't write about him anyway or they're on the defensive and don't want to cede what they see as too much ground to hostile takes. (They're not the only ones doing this but this is today's topic and I don't want to digress as much as I usually do.) That plus - the bane of my own existence in so many fandoms tbh - if you're into something enough to identify/be seen as "a shipper" of it then you probably favour fluffier takes on that ship. Which is valid of course, etc etc, but it means there's not many fic people around who are willing to spend the necessary time and effort on Dark Lokius. I mean, I'm fairly into the idea and I still haven't (really) made any fic of it so I am Part Of The Problem myself (I do have a couple of in-theory-WIPs but I have a lot of half-written fics and they won't all get finished). With me that's partly because I fear the reader glancing at the rest of my fic in that fandom and going "oh well OF COURSE she doesn't like lokius and wants it to be Wrong and Fucked Up," even though I fuck up a lot of pairings that I am very into.
Of course with me not being into fluff generally the dominance of that genre here means I read less lokius than I otherwise would and so the problem sort of self-perpetuates.
(Side-note on Ravonna, the comics canon (such as it has been relayed to me) seems to have massively influenced fandom's takes on her because I don't think she was even all that evil on the show? You could take her "brb off to find Free Will" as her having rejected the system and planning to bring it down some other way - which indeed I did until I was told no she's just a baddy. As Mobius's superior she's presumably more awful but what we see doesn't necessarily prove that. (Also there's only 22 - 22!!! - Mobius/Ravonna fics on AO3 and I have to ask HOW THE FUCK?? because I definitely detected a vibe there and refuse to accept that nobody else did. They had a vibe!!!))
BUT I DID DIGRESS LIKE I SAID I WOULDN'T. Added to all that is that the sylki and lokius shippers have become set against each other so again nobody wants to give anyone any extra ammunition for "actually your ship sucks" takes on tumblr by spending "too much" time on the nastier subtexts.
Um... well, the tl;dr is just that varying strands of The Discourse tend to push people away from spending much or any time on the darker lokius readings and that's a damn shame because as of this moment the pairing is tagged in 3,426 fics on AO3 and I feel like that means it could easily cope with a few more stories where it's to some degree fucked up. Bring on the Stockholm Syndrome, damn it, there's more than enough fluff to make it all better with afterwards :D

Heyy so liek-
I wanted to get matched up by a twst guy since youre good at writing n stuff but I'm an awkward person so😣
I'm a female thats about 5'10 feet tall (pretty sure) that has a wolf cut. People usually say I'm good looking so- I usually dress in revealing clothes (something like agejo) or something really cute like himekaji!! Sometimes I like to dress more mature since I kinda have multiple styles-
I'm really really talkative! Sometimes it comes of as an annoying trait of mine, so I try not talking too much, which gives off a feeling that I'm shy or introverted or something but I'm an esfp actually! I kinda give off "lazy, fat cat" vibes from people since people think that I'm pretty lazy,, and I'm usually really reaaally tired like all the time. Also kinda clingy? I kinda just cling to ppl I like. I'm very caring of others, and always listen to them whenever they talk and actively participate in the conversation!
I have a habit of blurting random stuff out. They aren't even words because like- I can say "mlem mlem" without me even realizing I said that😭 I also love love looove studying astronomy! And also history.. Many different subjects! I act pretty childish, though I can act more maturely if someone wants me to!
I also study about deep sea creatures- I just start studying about anything that seems interesting tbh.
thank you for reading all of that😭😭 I will be ending your suffering now, by shutting up😣
Oh by all means this is the opposite of suffering! this is how match makes work, only a professional writer reads all the info, plus it's very interesting to know more about people:) other than that.
I match you with..
..
... Silver!

He first came across you when you were napping under a tree, where he also usually naps, he accidentally woke you up when he stepped on a stick and you jolted awake, he kept apologizing and you told him it's fine, afterwards you guys started hanging out, sharing similar qualities which were that you both liked to nap but acted mature when asked to, tho he still had trouble keeping awake you always helped him.
your conversations always helped him stay wide awake because he was so interested in anything you were talking about, let it be your hyperfixations, how your day is going or anything else he just loves to listen to your voice, if you ever ask if your being too much he quickly assures you that it doesn't bother him at all, in fact he loves it.
He LOVES your clinginess because believe it or not he too is clingy, you 2 are like mushed clouds together, Sebek is yelling at silver to get up while Lilia is trying to drag him back. The first time you made a random sound around him he got really confused, he thought you wanted something so he faced you and raised a brow, you turned to him also confused
"what?"
"what was that sound? Do you need anything?"
"what sound?"
"The..the sound you made-"
"....Ohhh that sound, yeah it happens out of the blue you'll get used to it"
He'll get used to it quickly,. Sometimes if he's feeling it he'll make a random sound with you, chuckling at your surprised demeanour.
I like to hc that silver loves astronomy, he likes looking up at the stars, especially the moon, so you 2 often go stargazing together, sitting on the grass watching the moon hands held, its one of the peaceful romantic moments you guys cherish.
Lilia drags you away from him to give you lessons about history that he himself encountered, and silver just looks annoyed begging his dad to let you go, he wants his time with his lover>:(
But yeah other than that you two are the quiet couple, the couple who express love through quality time♡
Thank you for the request dear annon! Hope you have a wonderful week<3

yes i want to hear your thoughts!
Hongjoong’s was definitely both the hair and his performance during the medley. He looked so confident and magnetic. Also he was speaking very eloquently and you could tell he put a lot of thought into what he wanted to say every time he spoke. At one point the whole place started chanting “CAPTAIN” at him and I have never seen him smile so bright and I got to see it in PERSON. He said we were the loudest crowd he had had yet. I had a security guard next to me who was vibing the whole show, afterwards I asked him who his favorite was and he said Oreo guy.
Seonghwa???? My man’s came out with a SWORD and this is no joke I was mid scream the first time I saw him and I literally stopped dead and just stared. He quite literally took my breath away. I saw the undercut in person yall I can die happy. Not to mention he was feelin himself in take me home which is banger cuz that’s my favorite song. I could listen to him talk for hours. He was getting very involved durning the performances, coming up to the edge of the crowd and leading the light sticks and chanting with us. He was just very much in the element of ~performing- and he looked beautiful doing it.
Yunho was defo getting a lot of attention lol. Tbh I don’t remember much of him from the songs but he did the majority of the talking and was supper interactive with the fans. Every time he spoke everyone lost their minds and when we did the wave correctly he cheered for us the loudest. He also clowned San during wave lol. I don’t think he stopped smiling once lol. He did the Harry Potter “i have a secret, it’s that I’m a wizard” thing and literally pulled out glasses and a wand. I literally leaned over to my friend and said that if any one else in the world did that I would have hated it but just because it is Yunho I loved it.
Yeosang oh Yeosang. I don’t even know where to start. He was definitely the fan favorite every time his face should on screen during a song or otherwise people lost their absolute minds screaming at the top of their lungs pounding their feet on the floor stomping jumping swinging light sticks, just losing it. he looked so stunning not to mention how shy and excited he got listening to our cheers. On several occasions he took out his in ear monitors to listen to us cheer and it would go on for several minutes just people screaming for him. He called us his happiness.
San was just the sweetest. He was having a lot of fun running around and playing. He giggled every time we cheered for him. A couple of times during the show the crowd would stomp our feet while cheering to add to the volume and San LOVED that, he started joining in whenever we did. Yunho clowned him during wave by doing the hand thing and of course the entire crowd did it so and he gave us a cheeky “good job” it was sweet. Shook his ass in front of 10 thousand people. Like obviously he looked sexy during songs but you’ve probably already seen those shots from other concerts.
Mingi was another fan favorite, people just loved him. I think he was pretty shy not being able to speak English as well as some other members as he was one of the only ones using the translator to talk but the crowd did not care every time he finished the and translator Told us what he said the amount of screams and awes and ooos was insane. People really wanted him to know we understood him and I think that made him happy. The best part was when he said “atiny saranghae!” We didn’t have to hear the translation the crowd immediately started cheering back.
For Wooyoung this is kinda sad but I at least didn’t see very much of him. I was right behind the floor so I got a good view of both the stage and the screens but I was to far away to always tell where they all were on stage so I was watching my the screens for a lot of it and they just didn’t show him that much. I normally don’t talk about stuff like this on her but he doesn’t get very many lines so we didn’t see him much while performing and he didn’t talk very much during the speaking parts and I think that once again it might be because he had to use the translator. Obviously he had some fun moments interacting with the members on stage and obviously the crowd screamed hard for him when we did see him but other than that nothing comes to mind.
Jongho was the other only member to rely on the translator but I think even with that he was having a good time. Obviously vocal legend could never be out done. The crowd losing their minds at every high note and at one point yunho poked his smiley dimples and I think I physically combusted. He rapped one of Mingi’s raps for us which then turned into a jongho Seonghwa San mini rap battle. I loved his last outfit which I know you don’t know what it is but it was basically this colorful shirt sleeve button down and he just looked very jongho if you know what I mean.

Ok so ur blog is my safe place to speak my mind about stuff or tell u what's on my mind. I'm aware people are going to see this ask and that's totally fine Because maybe it helps somebody else. I really need to let some things off my chest and i feel like u're closest to being objective bc u don't know me and I've already spoken to my closest friends, obviously
Here's the thing. I used to be in a toxic relationship. While dating my ex, i met this boy and i felt, for the first in my life, like i fell in lobe at first sight with someone. And i swear it looked like he had something for me too. Everyone thinks that and also thought that at that certain moment when things were fresh and we were talking the first few weeks. Obviously, i started losing interest in my boyfriend, especially bc he was really mean to me and we didn't love each other anymore, we were still a couple bc it felt like a habit to be together (we dated for a couple of years). So yeah, i keep liking this guy who i think likes me too, things go rougher with my bf who becomes a little aggressive and short tempered,he was always like that, but he became worse towards the end of the relationship. Obviously, i break up with him when i start feeling really unsafe (he had no idea my feelings had changed because of someone else, that's just how he behaved every now and then). And after the break up, i try to make some things work with this guy who all of a sudden looks like he changed from the person he used to be. He stopped talking to me, ignored me big time and at some point, something like ur Colby imagine happened, when they meet in front of the high school entrance and hug each other. I ask him why has he been pushing me away and he scoffed and me and was like "me, pushing u away, how about u pushing me away?" and we just left things like that for a day or two and we were fine afterwards. So i took all my courage and told my friends that I'm gonna tell him how i feel about him but that day never came because he didn't show up for a few days and high school was already ending in a week by the time i made the decision.
Fast forward, i got a boyfriend, we've been dating for a really long time now, and somehow i still can't take my mind off that guy. I know it's wrong, i know it's not fair for my boyfriend, but i just think that there'll always be that one person u'll forever be in love with and i think it's this guy for me. I sometimes hope i could have some time to have a conversation with him after i don't know, 4 years since we parted ways to sit and talk. And no, my feelings for my boyfriend aren't changing because he's my soulmate for sure, but I'm frustrated because of how much i liked this guy and somehow he finds a way back into my mind and it hurts tbh
Thank u very much for considering my blog a safe space for u to come and let things off ur chest and mind, i really hope whatever we talk about on here also brings some joy to u if u ever have a bad mood while scrolling haha ♥️
And oh, u have no idea how much i understand u. I know it's frustrating and very hard to comprehend what's happening when u're in a relationship and all of a sudden all the feelings u have for ur significant other turn towards somebody else. Especially if u're mistreated (I'm so sorry about that, love, I'm also sorry u didn't find the courage or whatever u felt like u needed to walk away sooner). Love at first sight is very rare, i don't think u should feel bad or anyone should judge u for getting into that teenage dream of meeting the person u fall in love with on the spot. I think that's the most inevitable thing to happen and since u were also in a toxic relationship, u just gave into that feeling of a new beginning, which had u hooked for longer than expected. I don't judge u at all, u can't really control some feelings and i always believed that these happen for a reason. U can't just lose all ur senses for nothing kind of saying haha.
As of the current situation of u being in a healthy relationship and also a long lasting one and still thinking about that guy... I'm not gonna say it's ok cuz it's really unfair, as u said, to ur boyfriend, but i will say this: i believe that deep down u can't understand why everything changed so abruptly between the 2 of u after u being finally single. I believe u wished si badly for that relationship to happen, that the disappointment of the failure of u making up ur mind and telling him how u felt still makes u hold on to him. U're curious about what could've happened and if u're not talking anymore, u have no idea what was in his mind and u can't find out. U just wish u find out if he shared the same feelings as u when ur friends told u that he might have a crush on u also. Maybe u should delete this wish from ur brain, maybe this is what keeps him still in ur thoughts and u still think of him. U want answers that might never be answered. U can't just think of him forever. I know u want closure, but what would u achieve if he said yes or no if u asked him if he liked u 4 years ago? If he said no, u'd probably feel embarrassed for asking yk, if he said yes, that'll make u question ur current relationship. So, from my point of view, let go of this memory of him. Let go of the things he did that made u think he has feelings for u, because u'll grow the idea even more, u'll be so sure he liked u back, that u'll focus again on him. Maybe u'll try finding him on social media and start talking to him. And that's when it's not fair anymore to ur boyfriend.
Just let go to the past that happened such a long time ago. At first it'll feel impossible, but it's very beneficial
I hope i didn't upset u and that i actually helped u ♥️
