Tumblr media
•••
You couldn't be more frustrated.
The computer screen was already shuffling the words in front of you and with each new line you read, it made you even more stressed. You had plans for that Saturday and they sure as hell didn't include staying at home.
The open tab in your browser didn't help to contain your sadness either. As a huge Star Wars fan, of course you wanted to be there for Star Wars Celebration, as the girlfriend of one of the top stars, you felt guilty for not being there. However, you were being forced to follow along online.
You had the invitation, you even had the dress, but because of the irresponsibility of others, more specifically a colleague in college, you needed to do your part and his part in a project.
You could have left and gone anyway, but you decided to follow Pedro's advice. “You took so long to go after this dream of yours, it won't be an event that will make me love you less”. And of course, any promotional or collectible item he won would be yours.
At least one thing made you happy: Pedro's joy. With every question he was asked during the panel, every time he was cheered, you could feel his happiness through the screen. His eyes getting smaller because of the big smile he had. He was perfect.
A lot of people still wondered how it worked, you were two totally different universes. You met almost by chance. A friend asked for your help in a photo shoot she was going to do with him and from there, you never stopped talking. It started with a few likes on Instagram, then conversations and by the time you realized it, you were already tied to it.
You decided to put work aside for a while, paying attention to one of the interviews that Pedro was giving. The ensemble in a light blue tone seemed to have been molded to his body, while the slightly curled hair and glasses he wore caused a certain heat in your body.
This heat was soon replaced by a not-so-good feeling. The interview that Pedro gave went well, too well, until the interviewer called him daddy. Okay, it was a joke that the two of you had already had a good laugh, but the way she looked at him or maybe all your frustration with not being there made you feel uncomfortable. Maybe it was a passing feeling, so he decided to ignore it for now.
The day went by much slower than you expected. Despite having finished your work, you had to deal with some unfriendly messages from your classmate. God, how tired you were.
Deciding to call it a day, you closed your notebook and took a shower. Warm, relaxing and lingering. When you got out of the shower, you grabbed your first pajama piece and were ready to lie down and hold your attention on some silly video when you heard the door open. Upon arriving in the room, you found him patiently closing the door.
Your peace. Your love. Your Pedro.
"I know we agreed to see each other tomorrow, but I couldn't..." Pedro didn't have time to finish explaining himself before you crossed the room and jumped into his arms.
With the impact, Pedro automatically grabbed your legs and wrapped them around his waist, burying his face in your neck and smelling your woody scent.
“I missed you so much,” he muttered. It's been a little over a week since you've seen each other, for the two of you it felt like decades.
You pulled his face away just enough to kiss him. You even tried to hide it, but when you felt the relief of all the stress of the day, some tears flowed from your eyes, not going unnoticed.
“Hey, what happened?” Pedro quickly stopped kissing you. You just hid again in the crook of his neck, feeling his beard against your neck. “Mi vida, what happened?” he insisted and when he felt denial against his skin, he walked with you on his lap to your room, sitting on the bed.
“I'm sorry” you said as soon as you felt calmer to look him in the eye.
His hands were firmly holding your waist and his brown eyes seemed to capture every detail of you with full attention.
“There's no reason for you to apologize to me,” he said, taking his hand from her waist just to smooth out a few ruffled strands of her hair. “Honey, do you want to talk about it?”
“It was a difficult week, everything went wrong”
“Did you do that pending work?” he asked.
"It did, but I ended up arguing with Tommy" you tried to explain, wiping the few tears that were left from your face. "According to him, I'm a controlling bitch."
“He's a sucker” Pedro limited himself to saying. Tommy was a rather invasive friend and Pedro made a point of making it clear that he didn't like him that much. “I'm sorry you had to have heard that. You know what he said is a lie, right?”
“To be honest, no,” you laughed, almost wistfully. "That job interview I did yesterday didn't work out either."
"I already told you not to worry about it, love."
“I don't want to be a parasite in your life” Pedro immediately denied your statement.
It was a feeling you occasionally had, since you had given up your teaching career and devoted yourself only to studying, Pedro had been helping you more and more, which worried you about how you might be seen.
Before you went on to list all your ruins for the week, you felt your body tingle as one of his hands went down to your bare thigh and his lips went to your neck.
“You're stressed too much, mi diosa” he stole a quick kiss from your lips. “How about we go out to dinner tonight, then have a drink?”
"I don't know. I'm kind of tired and ugly” you replied, trying to keep your voice steady as you felt his beard brush your neck again. "We should enjoy this little Saturday at home, in the biggest laziness."
“You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen”
"You're saying that to please me" you replied and soon you felt Pedro take your lips to himself. It was a calm kiss at first.
His hands dug into your waist, while his tongue invaded your mouth and made you lose yourself in him. Your fingers tangled in the brown strands of his hair and as a reflex, his fingers threaded through the back of your neck, holding your hair in a tight grip.
“I know you're stressed” Pedro pulled back just enough to breathe, millimeters from your mouth “Let me help you. I can make you feel good.”
“Please love” you murmured. Pedro kissed you again, this time with more intensity.
One of his hands tightened around your waist, while the other went under your blouse and made his cold fingers contrast with your warm skin.
You could feel the heat building between your legs and need relief. His hand only dropped from your waist so he could impatiently tug at the button-down shirt he was wearing, which he didn't bother to let you unbutton. As soon as he threw the piece to some corner of your room, he went back to stealing your lips for himself. It didn't take long for your shirt to take the same path as his shirt.
Just feeling your breasts against his chest was enough to make you gasp. You could feel him hard against your intimacy, which made you start to slowly roll around in his lap.
Knowing your body as if it were part of it, your boyfriend took his hand to your right breast, trapping the small nipple between his fingers. His wet lips descended towards your bust.
Maybe it was the stress, maybe your mind was lost among so many thoughts, that you only realized after you moaned "Daddy please"
When you found yourself, you came out of the trance you were in to look Pedro straight in the eye. There you saw something different, a luster-filled glow.
"Wow, I'm sorry love, I just..." you almost choked on your own words when, without any hesitation, he lowered his hand to your intimacy and pressed your clitoris over the thin shorts that he wore "Pedro, please" .
“Not like that love”
With some difficulty, he pulled the fabric of your panty shorts aside, touching right where you needed it. His fingers moved slowly through your intimacy and a mischievous smile appeared on his lips
"I'm going to fuck your stress out of you, I just need one thing"
“Just say so” you said through a moan, rubbing your body against his hand on your sex.
“I just want to hear you ask me to do it, just like you just did. Can you do that for me, my little one?”
You could have misunderstood what he asked, but feeling him slowly thrusting two fingers into you made it much more difficult to conclude any reasoning.
“Fuck me Daddy, please. I miss you in me so much” You just heard a grunt leave Pedro's lips before he could turn you on the bed and come on top of you.
You tried to get some friction against his hips embedded in your body, but it wasn't enough to calm the heat that was building deep inside you.
Pedro parted his lips from yours just to gain some distance and unceremoniously take off your shorts and panties and shoot.
As if he wanted to provoke you, he remained kneeling in front of you, his hands slowly sliding along the inner part of your thigh, always when they approached where you wanted them, the hands did the opposite way.
"Pedro, I need you" you grumbled and soon you felt a hard slap on the side of your thigh, almost at the level of your ass.
“You can't call me that today.” His tone came out huskier than usual, which only served to make you even more aroused.
“Daddy, I need you, you promised to help me relieve my stress” you used your most sly tone and had to hold back a victorious smile as you saw Pedro take one of his hands off you so he could squeeze his dick, as a way of relief.
“I'm going to taste you, my love, and only after I let you come, then I'm going to fuck you,” he muttered, lowering himself to his intimacy.
First he lightly licked the entire length of your pussy, enough for you to squirm on the bed.
“Keep it wide open for me, can you do that for me baby?”
He sank into your pussy, trapping your clit and distributing licks along the entire length. You wish you could think straight, you wanted to form something cohesive in your mind, but feeling him circle your point with his tongue was almost too much for you.
Realizing you were almost there, Pedro stopped licking and went back to kissing your inner thighs.
“Patience, my angel” he asked as he heard you grumble.
It didn't take long for his tongue to be covering your clit again as he slipped a finger inside you, thrusting slowly. The fact that he was moaning against your pussy didn't help in trying to stay sane. It was when he added another digit on you that you felt your body combust.
“Fuck Daddy, don't stop! Please don't stop” you begged, watching his tongue be replaced by his other hand.
“Come for me, my love. Come and I'll give you what you want” he warned and watched his body combust.
Eyes closed, mouth half-open, hands glued to the sheets. That would always be Pedro's favorite view, to see you lost after he uses you.
When you reopened your eyes, you could see him lick the fingers that were inside you and mutter something along the lines of "Fuckin' delicious". That alone could get you there again.
"Papi, come here" you pulled him gently so that he lay under your body. Your hands went down to his cock, sliding slowly.
"With you calling me that, I don't know if I can last long," he grumbled, kissing and biting her lip.
“Enough to make me come again?” you asked. In response, he shoved it all in at once, eliciting a loud groan from both of you.
“Enough to make you come” he thrust hard, barely giving you time to get used to it. “Enough to fill that little pussy with my cum. Fuck, love” He kept the pace strong.
One of his hands wrapped around your neck, while the other he used to lean on the back of your head. The bed slammed against the wall and you'd probably have complaints from neighbors soon. But it didn't matter, as long as Pedro kept doing it, nothing mattered.
You could already feel your eyes burning and your body contracting with the arrival of a new orgasm, just as Pedro's thrusts no longer seemed to have a pattern.
“Do you want to come on me?” you said through a groan "Maybe you'll end up being a real daddy"
“I'll fill you with my cum, come with me love? Please, my princess.” His thumb descended to her clit, rubbing it intensely.
The moans came out almost in unison as you felt his liquid heat you even more inside. Pedro stood there for a few minutes, his head under your breasts, catching his breath. It didn't take long for him to lift his face and kiss your lips, much sweeter than you had.
"I love you so much. You're still going to kill me for being so hot” he whispered, as if that was the most important secret between the two of you. He laughed and wiped a small tear that came out of your eye after all the hard-on. "If you're going to have tears on your face, I'd rather they be like this"
“I love you more, Pedrito” you gave him a quick kiss on the tip of his nose “Can I call you Pedro again?”
"Now you can, although I prefer you to call me love, but..." he came out of you and stood up, heading towards the bathroom. It didn't take long and he came back, picking up the clothes "You're going to put on that dress, we'll go out wherever you want and then when we get back, maybe I'll forbid you to call me Pedro again"
"Or maybe I'll make you call me mommy" you suggested and laughed when you saw him immediately stop what he was doing, with the same look that started it all.
"Fuck"

Francis: Yeah, there is something troubling me but I cant wrap my head around it..
Lock: Oh my, want to talk about it, hun?
Tumblr media
Lock: One thing at the time, dear..
Francis: Okay okay sorry hehehe.. There were many Pokemons from other places asking about my job and the isle. It made me happy how they all showed their interest! And then there was the book.. Did you know this isle had a story?
Lock: Yes. But only from rumors of Locals. If they are true is a different story. Do you have a hunch?
Francis: I dunno. We did find a map in an egg so it makes me wonder. And restless.. The others filled me in on the details when i arrived and they were all ready for an exploration! I thought we already knew everything of this isle. Guess not..
Lock: You sound discouraged..
Francis: Well, I dont want to fail my job.. with everything going on. It has been tough lately..
Lock: Hmmm, I'm sure the others have it under control. Besides, you havent told me about the guy yet.
Francis flinched to Lock's sudden interest. "W-well, it was nothing special- We passed each other, turned around and greeted at the same time. Well, he seemed kinda pissed and walked off again, so i dont know what i did ^^" "
Lock: Interesting. Do you know him?
Francis: Not a clue! I have been trying to remember every person the past three years and not ONE looks like him.
Lock: And yet you cant sleep.
Francis: LOCK, ITS NOT WHAT YOU THINK-
Lock chuckles lightly "I am sorry Francis, I didn't want to tease you."
Francis: It's alright! I missed talking to you about boys hahah and how soothing it can be being around you.. Thank you Lock, for being here.
Lock: Likewise, honey. Have sweet dreams.
Francis: You too!
Francis drives off to the Star House. While the drive, she looks up to the sky, melancholicaly starring down the stars. She comes to an halt.
Oh, how I envy the Tanabata Stars
their once-yearly lovemaking tonight -
in this world
there is a woman
who doesn't know what love's future may be.
Francis drives off again.

Now that we have reached the last chapter of the year. It is time to do a 2020 roll call of what I like to call, “State of the Shippers”:
1. IzuOcha. Status: Placated.
-IzuOcha’s could celebrate several cute tidbits throughout the year. Mini moments as they say.
Anime Highlights: The OVA’s came in clutch with moments for shippers all around and IzuOcha is no exception. We got a cute tidbit where Izuku and Ochako bumped into each other and were flustered.
Tumblr media
Manga Highlights: Christmas kept on giving to this fandom as the AM doll Izuku gave Ochako made many appearances. A cute fist bump between the two was also exchanged and Mina was right there bouncing with y’all.
Heroes Rising: Izuku super man carried Ochako to safety. And was Angy she was injured. Fans could enjoy the small Lois Lane moment.
Troubling Signs?: Ochako said “I would like to be excluded from this narrative” when it comes to her feelings for Deku. She’s a hero damnit! So if they are in for something, probably won’t be while they are still in school.
II. DabiHawks. Status: Yikes.
- Dabi and Hawk’s very public breakup set this fandom in disarray but also kind of disayay?
Anime Highlights: None yet. This fandom was cruelly cock blocked by Bones. Sorry DabiHawks stans.
Manga Highlights: Where to begin, my goodness. With these fans, I guess the good and the bad is a plus in this homoerotic double agent relationship. We have the notion that Dabi may have known Hawks when they were kids, which may be a positive? Hori sure loves his childhood friends. Other than that. The GIRLS WERE FIGHTIN’. Hawks is now permanently scarred by Dabi and I don’t think it was kinky folks. Tokoyami inserted himself in the middle to White Knight Hawks, Dabi broke up with him via YT expose and overall, shippers could anguish in the absolute MESS that this ship endured this year. But I’m sure that’s part of the appeal. So...yay?
Tumblr media
Heroes Rising: They were both in it.
Troubling Signs?: The entire relationship is a troubling sign which again, is part of the appeal. Maybe Hawks will cuddle up with Dabi’s father after the war. That’s troubling! Speaking of...
III. EndHawks. Status: Yearning and Burning.
-If there’s one thing Endeavor couldn’t stop worrying about, it was his hot (in more ways than one) new side piece who probably should have looked at the fine print when signing a contract to be a recurring guest star on “Keeping up with the Todoroki’s”.
Anime Highlights: A fateful meeting finally in high definition for all our eyes to see! Hawks’s unwavering support of his biggest hero was endearing to watch and their shenanigans together spurred the anime onlies to finally jump on the biggest May-December ship in the series.
Tumblr media
Manga Highlights: Endeavor’s admiration and concern for Hawks seeped through the pages as we entered our most exciting arc in the manga yet. Fate split these two up yet entwined their downfall together. And that Fate’s name was Dabi...or should I say ⚫️⚫️⚫️⚫️⚫️ or should I just say Touya!
Heroes Rising: “Don’t bite my head off, Endeavor.” Geez, can you flirt a little less loud Hawks?
Troubling Signs?: They say never meet your heroes and Hawks is in for a rude awakening. We shall see just how deep his admiration runs or if Endeavor’s past will split our dynamic duo up for good.
IV: TodoDeku. Status: “Precious”
-Shoto’s “Midoriya is in Danger” radar was highlighted in both manga and anime. 4th User’s quirk, who?
Anime Highlights: “Midoriya hasn’t returned yet.” “Where’s Midoriya?” “Midoriya! Grab my hand!” “Have some of my Soba Midoriya.” Shoto gets it. His emotional support friend is a danger magnet. TodoDeku’s also enjoyed tiny tidbits in the OVA such as a hand grabbing scene. Gotta hold tight to those crumbs.
Tumblr media
Manga Highlights: Two Words. “Precious Friend.” Deku comes in w/o arms or legs fighting for Shoto and Shoto’s honor. These two spent the entire year worried sick about each other, and going against all odds to save each other. Precious Friends indeed. TDDK fans ate.
Heroes Rising: Shoto kicks some dog ass and then faints thinking of Deku (and Bakugo but shh. Let the shippers rejoice.) On the bright side, we have a 3rd movie coming featuring “The Three Musketeers” so shippers of TdDk can HOLD TIGHT to what’s to come.
Troubling Signs?: Shoto still doesn’t know about OFA and he’s gonna have LOTS of questions after this arc. Will Deku finally tell him? If not, it could make or break the ship.
V. TodoBaku. Status: “Shining through the city with a little funk and soul.”
-Who knew the greatest comedy duo we needed was Shoto and his hot headed “friend” or not friend? It still remains unclear to Shoto. Regardless, these two had a fun year.
Tumblr media
Anime Highlights: “I wanna see your cute face”, disco dancing, and more fun in the provisional license training. Plus the OVA added some cute moments between the two such as Bakugo staying behind to save Todoroki during a dangerous excercise and his adorable plan neatly animated for us. I’d say TodoBaku’s really were resurgent and energized this year!
Manga Highlights: Shoto, that is not how you properly Catch a Kacchan, I’m sorry. But at least you did it you mad lad. As with Deku, Shoto spent the year worried sick about Bakugo. While the anime let us have our fun, these two were suffering in the manga.
Heroes Rising: Again, Shoto put a dog down and then fainted with Bakugo on his mind (and Deku but we ignore that. Shush.) TodoBaku’s have the 3rd movie to look forward to which is bound to have some amazing content!
Troubling Signs?: They have a lot of trauma to deal with. And a lot of Deku to worry about. I also imagine Shoto will be hurt about being left out of the OFA secret. We shall see what 2021 has to offer.
VI. KiriMina. Status: Unbreakable.
-Changing your hairstyle to match the gal who inspired you in middle school? Sorry y’all but if Mina were a guy, I’d say that’s gay af.
Anime Highlights: We got that backstory Bois. Red Riot’s origin might as well make him be called Pink Riot. Again with Hori and the childhood friends though I wouldn’t exactly call them friends. They just went to the same middle school but Kirishima was highly influenced by Mina’s Chivalrous spirit! A ship is born!
Manga Highlights: The influence is mutual! Mina creates a move based on Kirishima’s unbreakable and we all let out a collective “awwww”. Also in the war arc, we got Kirishima making sure Mina’s chivalrous spirit shines through right into Gigantomachia’s mouth! KiriMina may just be the unsung MVP’s of this arc.
Tumblr media
Heroes Rising: They were in it.
Troubling Signs?: I can’t think of a single one. KiriMina’s can enjoy a peaceful sailing.
VII: KiriBaku. Status: Crumb Collectors.
-2020 was an uneventful year for KiriBaku but Bones made sure there were crumbs aplenty! Thank God for OVA’s!
Anime Highlights: KiriBaku’s did thrive in one episode! Kirishima reflects on the sludge incident and evolves his quirk based on inspiring words from Bakugo! Hooray! KiriBaku’s can thrive in their blossoming friendship. The OVA also has Kirishima (and Kaminari but shh) once again following Bakugo’s lead when it comes to the training excercise. How can you not? He’s so manly!
Tumblr media
Manga Highlights: Not gonna lie. There is nothing much here this year. I did find a teeny tiny flake in Aizawa’s flashback. Kirishima and Bakugo are sitting next to each other. Oh! And at the hot pot gathering, Bakugo sits next to Kirishima! Eat your crumbs KiriBaku’s! There’s always next year!
Heroes Rising: Kirishima hangs with a lazy Bakugo and delivers the most hilarious line in the whole movie. “Silly Bakugo, there won’t be villains here!” Hahah... Silly Bakugo. Oh you~ KiriBaku’s can inhale the fact that those two sure love to hover around each other!
Troubling Signs?: With great crumbs come little responsiblity. No trouble if there’s no content! 🤔
VIII: KamiJirou. Status: Singing their hearts out 🎶
-If there’s any ship that’s coming close to canonization, I think this is it, folks! “Think of the person most important to you!” Can’t argue with Midnight!
Anime Highlights: Kaminari does non stop encouraging of Jirou and her hobbies! He works super hard to learn guitar for her sake! We love a king who can encourage his queen!
Manga Highlights: Kaminari thinks of the most important person to him and surprise! It’s Jirou! All of the feels can commence.
Tumblr media
Heroes Rising: They were in it!
Troubling Signs?: Kaminari does love his women. And men. Kaminari overall is a huge flirt. But Jirou appears to have his heart strings. ❤️
IX: BakuDeku. Status: Rising. 👑
-Alternative Statuses include Winning, Thriving, Soaring. It’s just been non stop content this year. 2020 is truly the year for BakuDeku. The shippers can rejoice.
Anime Highlights: Three words. Be. My. Cane. The OVA’s helped fan the flames of the BkDk hearts with a surprise! Deku tops! Not only that, we got a lovely shoulder tap of encouragement in the canon material. While in season 4, Deku’s primary focus was Eri. Bakugo and Deku still had their moments to be hella gay.
Manga Highlights: Where do I even begin? I guess we’ll just cut to the chase with Bakugo Katsuki: Rising. We finally saw Bakugo’s true feelings manifest for Deku and if getting stabbed for him isn’t the ultimate showing of love, then idk what is. BakuDeku’s rounded out the year with the Volume 29 cover AND the volume 29 cover drafts to eat at our heart strings. Overall, their relationship got the spotlight in the manga this year. And we’re bound to start 2021 with a dramatic confrontation. Hand holding seems to be the key with these two and it didn’t stop with Heroes Rising...speaking of.
Tumblr media
Heroes Rising: The entire movie. Like....yeah. That’s it. [OP, your bias is showing. You have to be SPECIFIC.] {But random criticizer in my head, if I lay out the entire plot of the movie, my post will be too long} [OP....] UGHHHH Okay okay. The POPSICLE MELTING. THE HAND HOLDING. THE CHARACTER DESIGNS OF WHAT MIGHT AS WELL BE THEIR LOVE CHILDREN. Did I mention? “It’s fine if it’s you?” CAUSE YEAH. Oh and All Might randomly officiating their wedding in their heads like idk. Isn’t it just simpler if I say the whole movie??!
Tumblr media
Troubling Signs?: Well these two’s relationship is extremely delicate and while it has non stop soared this year, Deku might not take too kindly to Bakugo almost dying for him. Will they stop pushing each other away? Time will tell.
That’s all for this year folks! Happy Shipping and good luck to everyone next year!

a very sweet relationship i must say
yuki tetsuya finds joy in all the things you like because it makes you happy. when you guys meet for lunch, he’ll often give you a little bar of kitkat, where the flavor is different every single time because he’s just cool like that. you guys will go on boba dates often after school or after practice or he’ll drop it off on his free time. he will give you a hug at any given time you request because when he hugs you, he feels like he’s protecting you, especially when his large frame is embracing yours. this is especially good when you feel overwhelmed in noisy areas or large crowds. often he’ll pull you aside to hug you to block out the world, where you can focus on just you and him. if you’re feeling anxious, he’ll go to a place secluded so you can breathe and feel better. you already know he’s good with his words and that’s evident when he’s the captain during the first seasons of daiya. he always knows what to say, calming your thoughts and mind, and he would love it if you opened up to him! with this he’s a fantastic listener, and he will literally give anything just to hear you ramble about the things you love. just as you love stars, he loves the stars in your eyes when you just talk about something passionately. he is so observant that the minute he feels that you’re unhappy he’s right in front of you. he always treats you gently because you are just so precious to him. but he will step in if he thinks he has to: for example, if you’re too nice to people taking advantage of you, he’ll wait for a good moment remind you to stand up for yourself. he adores how kind your heart is, but he doesn’t want you to get hurt.
this relationship is so healthy, so balanced it clenches my heart </3

like yuki, he will literally take note on all your likes and will show up with a kitkat everyday, boba, will take you out to dog cafes, star gazing— everything. whatever makes you happy, consider it done. any art projects you give him he treasures in a separate room in his mansion because no gift is better when it’s made from the heart. he will never do anything that will make you uncomfortable, so he settles for low and quiet dates where you two can give each other undivided attention. he might be one of the shortest on the team, but he never fails to give you forehead kisses when he sees you, when you part, and when you’re anxious. he knows you like the back of his hand and will listen to anything and everything you have to say. he loves it when you talk because your voice is his favorite music to his ears. you can’t hide anything from him, really. expect him to encourage you a lot to try your best because he only wants to see you thrive. communication with him is fantastic; mature, straight to the point— no room for toxicity. like yuki, he always knows what to say in any given situations, and he will always make time for you. you matter so much to him.
he is literally the perfect guy for you i hope you find your own akashi seijuro ;-;

The Tomestone Problem
Tumblr media
Everyone else was off doing shit to try and find Haila. Sergius decided he may as well join the party. It had nothing to do with the fact that it was Haila, whose A11Y plushies sat on a shelf in his cubicle next to the useless sweater she had knitted him for Starlight. He would have gotten off his ass for anyone under Heartwood's umbrella. (Okay, that was a lie.) But there were apparently encrypted tomestones she had left behind that needed cracking and since he had done such a bang up job the last time she had given him something to hack, he took himself out for a visit to Florus.
The architectus was kept on a short leash these days. Sergius didn't have a problem with that (also a lie but one he didn't want to dissect too closely). He'd likely find the man hunched over a console in a dark corner somewhere. If not within the Company walls, then out at the Ironworks. When nothing came up on his feeds he pinged the man like the lazy A.I. he was. //Location requested//
Florus was, indeed, holed away in some dark corner of Heartwood, playing around with algorithm configurations to more quickly decrypt the tomestones. His work gets interrupted by a notification from a surprising (but not completely unexpected) source. Sergius himself. Florus pauses from typing and regards it for a second before writing a response.
<< Haila's Lab. I'll open it up for you. Careful of loose hoses and rakes. >>
A few minutes after Florus' reply a body can be heard entering the closet. Followed shortly after by the sound of something that sounded distinctly like a rake clattering loudly against the back wall before falling to the floor. A muffled expletive. A moment after that Sergius pushes his way into the lab. His drone immediately does a circuit of the unfamiliar territory while Sergius' eyes find Florus. "I saw the report. How far have you gotten with the tomestones?"
(Florus Celsus) omg sergius hahah )) (Atreus Sergius) xD))
Florus is folded over what was once Haila's chair, one hand hovering over her old terminal and the other pressed into the bridge of his nose as he stifles a laugh at Sergius's entrance. His bird drone flutters off his shoulder and follows Sergius's own as it does a lap, twittering dumbly a few ilms behind.
"I told you about the goddamn rakes!" Florus jeers, not bothering to hide the smug smirk he's got from all of this. "...but anyway, not much. They're coded in a language I'm unfamiliar with, so I've been trying to figure that out first. Have to be careful, don't know if they've got security measures built-in to delete the data or some crap."
"Screw you." Sergius offhandedly retorted in reply to Florus' jeering. His drone hovered over Florus' shoulder, obviously giving Sergius a view of the screen as he moved closer. "Security measures to delete data she meant to us to have is counterintuitive. Her encryption language is just to fuck with you personally." Difficult though she was making it, he might have enjoyed that about Haila. Florus rolls his eyes at the suggestion, though Sergius has a point. It's entirely possible Haila has intentionally done this to make his life difficult and that, unlike normal targets, there weren't the normal defenses. Honeypots, ransoms, what have you. His instinct tells him to assume zero-trust, however. A good hacker leaves no trail, is unknown.
"Haila's...yeah. But we don't know for sure now, do we?" He weakly shoots back, before scooting back a little to allow Sergius access to the keyboard if he chooses. "What's your take on this shit. So far something only slightly better than brute-forcing comes to mind...which is why I asked people to salvage Allagan tech. Will probably burn the chips out of all of it by the time we get some answers though."
Florus has always looked like a husk of a man that's gone through way too many cycles in the dryer on the highest heat setting. And yet, he appears even more haggard than when Sergius last saw him. Perhaps it relates to the new devices hung along his back, the crystals bound in black carbontech that glow with aether?
Sergius stared deadpanned at Florus as he turned the keyboard to him. Like he was some handicapped Spoken who had to interface with a console through a medium like that. As he connects to the console and wanders through Florus' work so far he also reserves a block of processing to study the man himself. "You look more like crap than usual." Maybe the architectus was plagued by some effect many of them were suffering. Himself included. He stared at Florus waiting for the man to speak, then realizing Spoken usually wanted more than that, he added, "What changed?"
Florus decides that, with Sergius around, he's not going to get any worthwhile work done so might as well take a coffee break. He reaches for his mug, finds it annoyingly empty, and glances up at Sergius with simple irritation buzzing behind his eyes. "Great, now a robot's fussing over my health. Got a nursemaid protocol hidden away in that metal heart of yours somewhere?" Florus mutters lowly as he eases out of the chair to brew another batch.
For a decently awkward length of time, there's nothing but the sound of boiling water and grinding between them. Florus isn't in any rush. But when the noise begins to die down, he finally deigns to answer. "Haila left me a fucking gift, that's what. Shoved full of her haywire aether without a lick of consent, or bothering to think of what it might do to me." Florus turns back to Sergius with the coffee cup in tow. "What about you? I'm sure she gave you a 'present' as well."
"If you die I'm stuck with the A11Ys." Sergius reminded the man. "I don't want to deal with that shit just yet." Florus words about haywire aether and a gift didn't make sense. "Explain."
Florus grins slightly at that. "Stop tempting me." He fills a second cup with coffee and steps into Sergius's space, presses the offering into his chest. Does his model drink this shit? No idea. "I'll tell you after you tell me about your problems."
What the hell was this? Sergius stared down at the mug being forced on him. Raising his head, he looked up at Florus and slowly but deliberately took the mug and set it down on the desk. If there had been any question about whether he ate or drank, it was now answered. "I never said I had problems." "Yeah, cause you fucking didn't say anything. You ignored the question, which makes me think you /do/ have something going on. That, and one of the tomestones has your name on it. All of the people who've had whack shit happen to them have lined up so far." Florus takes a long sip without breaking eye contact.
Sergius tried to go for a normal expression. Normal being a neutral expression that concealed the litany of expletives he categorically held back in his buffer. "How fantastic that you connected those dots." he dryly noted. He finished his perusal of Florus' work minutes ago and found the architectus had done everything he would have done in descending order. From cross referencing the read and write file to a creation of a key searching algorithm. "You're stuck running rounds  through the encryption until you come across the long ass repetitive function that marks the key. So yeah, you're going to need raw processing power and time." he paused. "I have visual and audio glitches." he finally answered.
Florus extracts perverse satisfaction from Sergius's controlled response, taking it as validation of his hypothesis, but then he's brought right back down. Sure, it's kind of nice to get a second opinion and have them agree, but it's still shitty in the end when they're agreeing on what's a baseline and crude solution. Florus scratches the stubble beneath his neck in focused frustration.
"Damnit. Is it too much to ask for a miracle once in a while?" he grumbles, so annoyed that he nearly forgets about what he's asked Sergius mere seconds ago. So Florus blinks at that last bit. "Glitches? Of what?"
Sergius stares off past Florus' shoulder. A part of him didn't want to answer. Florus was an architectus and fuck them and their work. But he couldn't keep ignoring it. Or maybe he could. Ignoring shit was always an option. It had worked so far. He folded his arms across his chest. It wouldn't hurt to get a second opinion. It might not be the one he wanted but it was the one he had available to him. "I keep seeing a figure out of the corner of my visual range. And hearing an annoying giggle no one else can hear. I've run diagnostic tests but they all come back fine."
Florus eyes dart somewhat erratically as he ponders Sergius's "symptoms." A girl - but who? And how was she connected to Haila? He's been quiet too long, however. May as well vocalize his thoughts. "Someone else in the company reported seeing butterflies, coinciding with...the incident. Sounds the same." Florus Celsus looks back to Sergius. "I don't doubt you're running optimally, but I could take a look and confirm. However, my hunch is that your diagnostic tests are coming back fine because you /are/ fine. That you're picking up some residual aether or, perhaps, been infused with the ability to see a phenomenon we all otherwise miss."
Sergius "Yeah, well they're Spoken. Weird aether shit is supposed to effect them. Not -me-." he countered. Florus's suggestion that he could take a look had Sergius backing up a step. Not going to happen. Aislinn would be back from her run to Azys Lla at some point. And at least with her he knew she wasn't going to plant any weird shit in him or rewrite his code or whatever other crap architectus do. "I'll wait for -" he stopped. He really needed the fucking delay. "I'll wait." he finished. "How does a garlean machine just pick up aether. We don't."
Florus snorts, finding some twisted humor in their mirrored situation. The same disbelief. That he's relating more to a machine than the others around him. "Whatever's going on doesn't give a fuck about rules and how things ought to be. How does a garlean machine pick up aether? Well, how does a garlean channel magic without becoming a Resonant? There's no answer, just the two of us left wondering how everything got so messed up."
Florus stares down at an open palm and lets out a sigh shaking with ire/exhaustion. He can do this. Show Sergius the extent of his control, it won't - it can't - escape him again. He focuses slightly and the crystals on his back begin to glow warm, aether swirling around them like a lazy breeze. Hair lifting in this updraft, Florus stares back at Sergius, eyes dull with worn fear.
Sergius’ drone circles around Florus. "Is that why you look like shit? You're trying to channel magic?" And then Florus goes and does exactly that. He stares at the man. Godsdamn it, he really was going to be saddled with the A11Ys sooner than expected, wasn't he? He doesn't like the fear in Florus' eyes. It's too real and too...Spoken. "Why the hell are you messing around with it? No one's holding a gun to your head. Knock it off. Have you tried just not."
Florus stops. Tries to. The breeze lingers far longer than he'd like. The soft fear is quickly replaced with his usual, knife-like ire. "You think I didn't try 'doing nothing?' That landed me in the ER! This...this vile energy is about to tear me up from the inside, and....fuck, it still is! If it isn't burned off, I'm liable to explode. Literally.”
Florus: "Whatever. That's my problem." He snaps, redirecting his gaze back to the terminal. Trying to distract himself.
The way Florus described it had Sergius making a connection. "An inefficiency." he said. Like Aislinn. Now he had a choice to make. He ran through his logs looking for an explicit directive -not- to talk about it but he found none. Did that make it okay? To discuss someone  else's problem with another person? Gods, he hated trying to decipher protocol like this. Maybe don't lead with it? Save it unless needed. That sounded right. "What did the clinic say?"
Florus feels heat blooming beneath his collar, and he's sure it's not purely from channeling aether. "They didn't know the cause, just that it was building, and took me to the conjurers guild to learn the basics. It's unlike anything they've ever seen."
"Look. It's Haila. It HAS to be. She fucking asked me cryptic shit right before she disappeared, stuff like 'what'd you do if you could cast magic' and 'maybe my aether will find it's goddamn way to you.' We have to find her so she can fix me. Fix us." He glances briefly at Sergius, then away. "Unless you want to be hearing and seeing a giggling girl for the rest of your cycles." Florus sighs and sinks back into the chair, one finger tapping restlessly against the armrest. "From a basic operative standpoint, it's not optimal." Sergius replied, purposefully downplaying how annoying living with a phantom figure in his vision like a stupid artifact would be. "There are stones that can draw off excess aether. It might help with all of...this." he waved a hand over the entirety of Florus' run through the ringer form. "Until we manage to find Haila." Assuming there was still a Haila to find. Sergius wasn't 100% on that. Unlike Sergius, Florus is angrily determined to find Haila and, lacking a Haila to find, some equivalent to tear into! He finishes his mug and grabs the one that Sergius rejected earlier. It's cooled by this point, but caffeine is caffeine. "That's what these things are for...Practically fill up every night though. But hey, free aether lowers the bills. I'm a walking battery pack. You need to charge?" he dryly jokes, though it rings hollow.
"I'll keep it in mind." Of course Sergius didn't exactly run off of aether. Because why would he? But maybe Aislinn would return from Azys Lla with a solution to her problem and by extension, help Florus. Because Sergius really didn't need to the man going up in flames on him. Like it or not it was in his best interest to keep him alive. He shifted his focus back to the console and the tomestones. "I have more processing power than that shitty console. Keep tapping away at it if you need to waste some time. But I'm going to take one of these tomestones and work on it while we wait for the Allagan tech to come in." He swiped one of the stones up at random. "I'll report if I find anything."
"Hey, it's not shitty. It's not even mine," Florus growls, though he becomes immediately aware of how useless it was to defend Haila's terminal of all things. And having Sergius helping out is purely a positive and - despite all this, Florus can't hold his tongue. "Dick. Break that and there'll be hell to pay."
Sergius paused at Florus’ admission that the console wasn’t even his. Gods damn it. She wasn’t even here and he was still inadvertently insulting her tech. Good job, Sergius. 
With such words of unwell wishes, the two would part, somehow working towards the same goal in spite of themselves. It was funny how alike and unlike they could be.

Fandom: Steven Universe
Pairing: Steven/Connie
Rating: Teen Audiences 
Words: 2.6K~
Summary: In which Connie’s subconscious, innocent touch helps Steven realize just how nice the sensation of gentle fingertips gliding across the surface of one’s gem can be. (Just a bunch of teen romance fluff, + first kiss)
This is set like... a few weeks before Steven leaves Beach City. I imagine he’s been recovering from what happened in I Am My Monster for at least 6 months by this point.
His days aren’t always great- there’s a lot of ups and downs- but thankfully, today is a markedly pleasant one.
_____
His house is still for once. Impossibly so. No Diamond business, no new arrivals to Earth, no disgruntled Gems kicking down his front door. No more battles, beyond his own internal ones. Admittedly, a part of him is happy for the peace and quiet. He’s appreciative of the way all his family and friends rallied around him in support months back after... erm- after his breakdown, but every guy needs some space eventually.
‘Some space’ never has to mean alone, of course.
Steven sneaks a doe-eyed glance at the girl flopped next to him on the living room couch, her mind lost in the pages of her own fantasy world. It’s a new series, something about a human accidentally falling into the world of the fae. (It’s only been like, half an hour, and she’s almost a hundred pages in already!) A pliable smile teases his lips as he watches her eyes flicker back and forth, digesting each passage with a voracious hunger. Sighing in content, he turns his attention back to his own book, externally making as if he’s busy exploring the world of fiction to hide the sappy fact that instead he’s been thinking about her all along. Honestly? He adores quiet days like these. Even if they’re not doing anything special, it’s just nice to get to spend time alone together. It’s a comfortable together.
Connie shifts, instinctively curling closer, her free arm slung against his side. With a soft hum of content he leans into her welcomed embrace, trying his best (and— caught in her innocently bewitching presence— failing abysmally) to focus on the wandering lines of text.
Everything is peaceful.
No hard knocks, no frenzied phone calls, no family disruptions. The domestic warp hasn’t even activated once this whole lazy afternoon. In recent days, he’s pretty sure that’s a record.
At long last, his house is still... and yet in a flash, his hormone riddled teenage mind— ever foolish— is everything but.
Because Connie’s touch is tickling him.
It’s subconscious, almost imperceptible at first. At some point her free hand has roved so that it’s no longer pressed against his side, but against his midriff— which is currently exposed, his shirt bunched up at the waist from all his slouching. Teasingly, her fingertips dance upon the facets of his gem with the pinpoint expertise of a prima ballerina, encoding an endless rhythm directly into the sum of his being, the feather-light contact sending vibrations almost too faint to notice coursing through his hard light veins. But not too faint for him. Not now, not while host to this kind of silence. Not when the girl draped on the couch next to him unknowingly commands every shard of his attention with the slightest twitch of her index finger.
It’s taking all his willpower not to squirm at this ticklish contact right now. It’s so... weird when other people touch his gem. It’s certainly not something he’s used to.
(Steven promptly buries the memory of the last time someone touched it, refusing to let old terrors tarnish an otherwise pleasurable encounter. He can feel the pink threatening to rise in his cheeks, that instinctual rush of panic he’s grown so numb to over the past months rearing its ugly head. It’s so, so hard to wrestle away from its thrall sometimes, but thankfully his therapist has been teaching him ways to mitigate these sorta reactions. His eyes clamp shut as he breathes deep through his nose and focuses on the tangible, on what he knows: the plump, lumpy cushions of the couch under him, the slight scent of garlic and cumin in the air from the lunch he cooked a few hours ago, the rhythmic crashing of waves outside the house. The warmth of his best friend by his side—)
Tap, taptaptap, tap, taptaptap...
His cheeks bloom a human red as her lulling rhythm continues.
Like he said, it’s obviously subconscious. It has to be, right? It would certainly make sense. From his observations, Connie’s always been a tactile thinker. It’s part of what made her such a quick study in sword fighting. Whenever her mind is alight, those beautiful neurons firing back and forth like a firework display, her body is in motion. Sometimes it’s her foot, tapping impatiently into the dirt as she parses through memory to find the precise words to say. Or it’s like how she memorizes facts for tests easier if she’s jogging, listening to audio recordings of the test materials she made herself. And then there’s times like now, when Connie is reading. When her fingers tap and glide with an almost impish touch across the diamond gemstone in his belly’s center as her eyes— by all appearances entirely disconnected from both her hand’s motion and his reaction— skim effortlessly across the unfolding tale on her page. Her hands... oh, those hands... calloused, warm, digits lithe and curious in their movement. They’re always shifting, always tapping, always twitching to some identifiable rhythm. Is this just another example of her sway towards more kinetic-based thinking? Or... is it something else? A silent yearning that extends its roots from the heart into object reality, innocently unaware of the power of its call?
Stars, Steven thinks, mustering with all his strength to ignore his burning face, so maybe I’ve been thinking a little too much about her lately...
Eventually, it all becomes a bit too overwhelming to handle. If this continues in silence any longer, well... well, heck. He doesn’t even want to imagine what embarrassing things could happen. Mustering up all his courage, he flips his book shut and drops it on the cushion beside him.
“Um, Connie? By the way? That’s kinda ticklish,” he squeaks out, voice high and reedy.
Upon his words, she notices where her fingers are subconsciously tapping and immediately pulls her hand away, her cheeks flushing dark. “Oh, I’m so sorry!” she says, quickly tossing her book aside and shifting upright on the couch. “I didn’t mean to goose ya’! I wasn’t even thinking abo—“
“No, it’s okay!” he interjects with an open hand. “I’m fine, really, I am. I- it’s not like, uh- It isn’t like a bother, and- well, it just—“
Burning up with such a ferocity that he’s about one impulsive decision away from high tailing it out of this fraught social situation and dunking his glowing pink head right into the Atlantic, he forces himself to hush before he says something super stupid and humiliating in front of his best friend in the whole world that he’ll regret and replay in his dreams forever and ever for the rest of his days.
Okay, Steven, stop running your mouth like a lovesick fool for one second and think. How can you say this in a way that doesn’t sound entirely stupid and/or weird?
Watching him closely, curiosity written across every vibrant feature, Connie inclines her head ever so slight, a subtle, wordless gesture— one only a Jam Bud could understand— for him to keep going.
The phantom sensation of her fingers tapping against crystal rushes through his nerves like the physical analogue to a bad ear worm. He reaches up to itch at the side of his neck, unable to fully stifle his nervous laughter.
“Honestly, it uh- it actually felt pretty nice?”
“What, me touching your gem?”
“Yeah,” he manages to croak out, voice cracking like it hadn’t since he was freshly fifteen.
She isn’t able to fully stifle her giggle at this, pressing her hand tight to her mouth far too late.
His heart nearly plummets at the sound of her teasing laughter, the constant thrumming of his hard light veins steadily quickening as a flood of energy pulses just below the surface. He knew he shouldn’t have said anything, he knew it was far too much after every other recent misstep he’s made in their relationship! Why couldn’t he have just kept his trap shut?
“Aw, geeze,” he says, voice thick and his every muscle ready to bolt, “this is so embarrassing—“
“No, no! I shouldn’t have laughed, it’s okay!” she jumps in, pressing her hand to his shoulder to help ground him “It’s just bodies, Steven. It’s not weird. It’s just how skin-to-skin contact works. It’s supposed to feel good, because we’re meant to be social creatures, y’know?”
He hums softly in agreement, taking the offered moment to ease himself down from brink of panic. He focuses intently on the weight of her hand, resting feather-light against him. It’s a small gesture, but a powerful one. More than anything, more than words alone could say, it’s a promise. A reaffirmation, moment by moment. I’m here. We’re here. It’s a truth even the sobering reality of shared trauma can’t hope to erase: that even when the going’s tough, they have each other.
Connie brushes a stray stand of hair behind her ear then, shifting on the couch. Perhaps out of a sum of bashfulness, her eyes drift, not quite able to meet his.
“I- it’s silly, but I guess I never considered that you could even feel sensation through your gem,” she admits.
“Really? But you’ve had a gem before. Well, shared a gem,” he corrects himself, though in the end it’s all semantics.
“Well, sure, but when we’re Stevonnie, they don’t tend to think about stuff like that, because you’re used to it, and I’ve never thought about it. It’s simply... normal for them, I guess.”
“Hahah, yeah. It’s always been that way for me,” he says with a soft chuckle. “I never crawled like a normal kid, d’ya know? Dad says I always used to move around by scooting on my butt. When I tried crawling my gem would scrape against the floor, and apparently? I hated it.”
She laughs for real this time, (with him, not at him), her voice ringing true and beautiful and clear like a bell. His heart swells with joy.
And then...
Connie’s lithe fingers reach towards his midsection, hesitantly at first, before— in careful consideration of boundaries— pausing in their voyage entirely.
Her eyes lock with his, her shy expression wholly giving up the chase on what her request will be before she ever shifts her tongue to ask in words. “Is it okay if-?”
“Always,” he says, gently leading her hand under the hem of his shirt and towards the gemstone at his core.
He can’t help his sharp inhale when he feels her fingertips dance across his facets once more. Even when he knows what’s coming, knows to expect this contact, it’s funny. Not funny in a ‘haha’ way, funny in an ‘I’m not used to this’ way. After all, he’s never exactly made a habit of touching his own gem beyond periodic cleaning, and (almost) no one else has ever had a purpose to. It’s for this reason that a small traumatized segment of his mind still can’t help but spiral in panic about the mere concept of any external being brushing against this treasure, this tangible half of his very essence. Given the nightmares he’s been through, he’d have every right to deny her touch. But with Connie... beyond everything else, allowing her in this way is the greatest show of vulnerability he knows how to give.
It’s his proof to her that in this moment, he trusts her implicitly, without question.
Gracefully, she traces her finger around the edge of his gem, lines each individual facet in turn. It’s ticklish at first, much like before, but as she grows more confident in her gentle exploration he finds himself relaxing under her touch. He feels warm, a faint buzz of content flooding his system through his hard light veins. With her, he feels safe.
“It really is beautiful, you know that?” she says, a peaceful expression settling across her features. “Your gem.”
“Nah, you’re beautiful...” he murmurs bashfully, cheeks flushing.
“So are you,” she replies in swift measure, eyes soft with endless adoration.
His fluttering heart extends its gossamer wings and soars. If it weren’t for her nestled at his side, lithe fingers running across each facet in even measure, her tactile presence tethering him like an anchor to this present reality, he’s pretty sure he’d have floated halfway to the ceiling by now.
Daringly, his gaze locks with hers. He swears his heart’s beating its own drum solo within his chest, but this time it’s not because of fear, not at all.
It’s the feeling of freedom.
His fingers loop around a stray strand of hair that’s fallen in front of her eyes. That seems to happen a lot, he’s noticed. As delicate as he can manage, he hooks it back over her ear.
“Can I...?” he whispers, his warm breath brushing against her lips.
She replies in wordless affirmation, leaning forward to close the narrow gap between them. Hooded eyes drift shut. Her hand still rests on his gem as they finally move to cross that final barrier, that fuzzy, oft indistinguishable line drawn between childhood sweethearts and could-be couple, and kiss.
Well, attempt to, anyways.
To be fair, despite his schmaltzy roots, Steven only has movies and books to pull from as an example.
Their noses bump against each other’s at first. Both giggling, they tilt their heads to compensate and then mash their lips together, reveling in every ridiculous moment of their joint inexperience. It’s definitely sloppy, and he doesn’t have a clue where he’s supposed to put his hands or how long is too long, or how he’s supposed to move his mouth against hers, or— stars, did he even remember to brush his teeth this morning?? He sure hopes so— but because it’s with Connie all of that doesn’t matter. It’s perfect in every way.
“OoooOOOoo, looks like loverboy’s finally gettin’ some!”
He and Connie startle at the interruption, pulling apart from each other with equally flushed faces to match eyes with their surprise visitor.
It’s Amethyst, leaning against the kitchen table with a downright roguish smirk, probably thinking she’s the funniest Gem that’s ever emerged. Of course, who else would it be? (Though, which entrance did she come in from? When did she sneak past them? Were they really so involved with each other that they just... failed to notice??)
“Crude,” he says, brows creased with faint annoyance.
In return, she cups her cheeks and serves him the most ridiculous, schmaltzy expression she can muster. “Sap!”
Connie stifles a laugh at her exaggerated antics, but on his side he can’t help but be salty that her interruption yanked the two of them away from the blissful throes of blossoming teenage romance.
“Oh, get outta here, you,” he chimes back, and playfully tosses one of the couch’s pillow straight towards her face. “Shoo!”
The quartz Gem catches it out of midair and grins, no stranger to tests of reflex these days. Adopting a fake posh voice, she fires back her retort. “Your wish is my command, Sir Sappington...”
Tucking the pillow under her arm, she turns on her heels and skips up and over the warp pad’s platform, stalking towards her room with a victorious air. She doesn’t even try to mask her lovingly teasing snickers as the door splits in two at her command and she crosses the barrier into the temple’s dimension warping interior. The last they hear from her before the passageway shuts is an overly triumphant ‘whoop.’ Steven can’t help but raise a scandalized brow at this. What, were the Gems hosting a betting pool about him and Connie, or something?
But thankfully, in time, the beach house grows peaceful again. They’re alone together, and together they’re content.
“Geeze, sorry about that,” he says bashfully, scratching at the nape of his neck. “You know how Amethyst is, heh heh.”
Connie smirks with loving, mischievous intent, comfortably cuddling up against his shoulder. “She’s kinda right, though...”
“About?”
“You can be pretty sappy sometimes,” she says fondly, and tilts her head so she can smooch his cheek. “Just one of the many reasons I love you.”
____
Notes:
So, given that I’ve also written a fic wherein Steven wakes up feeling a hand against his gem and has a panic attack, a word of explanation with my headcanons-
Ultimately, I imagine there’s a very stark difference between a trusted individual like Connie touching his gem when he’s fully alert and it’s just them, alone, safe... and him waking up and being groggy enough to not immediately realize who it is next to him.
In the end though, I just hope Steven would be able to reclaim a once-terrifying experience (someone else touching his gem) as something that is also able to be loving and comforting when it’s done with consent.

T.T tsym sorry for the double messages well ask haha it's nice to see a blog opened to also gender neutral individuals ^^
My pronouns are: they/them (would be preferred to be called he/him)and I am into guys but I'm open to other genders but it depends but I am not one to judge hahah also I am demiromantic
My star sign is Cancer and my MBTI is INFP. My personality is that I am really awkward/weird/reserved and tend to be very polite when spoken to by strangers and it takes me a very long while before I can warm up to someone. I can also be very quiet and observant but with people I know and trust I can be quite affectionate,caring and quite humorous not to mention flirty and michievous sometimes ack (only to those that I really care about)
I can be very stubborn,lazy sometimes and very insecure and sometimes a bit too quiet I can't really form up a conversation cause I hesitate a lot and tend to second guess myself. As stated before it takes a long time before I can trust someone so it's very hard for me to be vulnerable or open up to someone. I also love having long talks and tend to dislike small talks but again this depends on the person
As for hobbies I love playing video games listening to music, reading or cooking ofc going out for adventure but that got canelled rq ;-;. Oh and I love collecting cute things or giving gifts to people I care about once I am not broke agagag
Errr I think that's all for now hahah hopefully this was enough information and tsymm for doing this request have a good dayy or nigh
A/n: I hope you like it!!
O HO HOH DENKI!!!
Since he first met you, he was extremely persistent!! He saw how cool you were and kept persisting, making it his job to make you his best friend (and partner)!
You don’t need to worry about being too quiet around him, because he’s always rambling on about his day and things he likes. He makes sure to occasionally let you talk if you want, or will ask questions to get you to talk. He just loves to hear from you.
Once you are able to trust him and flirt with him, he goes into mega simp mode. He’s all red and stuttery everytime. It’s adorable. He never sees it coming, since it’s a side he only really gets to see.
After a long day of school and training, he’s extremely drained and just loves to cuddle you and nuzzle you. You could be playing video games for hours, blasting y’all’s favorite music while his arms are wrapped around his waist, passed out. Though as soon as he’s awake he’s immediately playing with you.
AND YALL GO ON SO MANY WEIRD ADVENTURES???? LIKE YOU HAVE NOW A COLLECTION OF SHIT YOU FOUND IN THE NEARBY WOODS/FOREST— He LOVES going out into nature with you, just finding cool animals and plants.
His favorite place to go with you is to this unknown little open field in the nearby woods. It has a little pond, and a lot of fallen trees. One went directly over the pond, and he loves just sitting on it with you. Though most of the time while trying to show off, he falls into the pond. He once got scared from it and shocked himself while in the water. May or may not have spent the night in recovery girls office.
Speaking of the collection from before, you two also collect anime and kawaii animal figures. Literally just shelves full of cool stuff. Like you have tens of figures, and then the other part is collections of things from adventuring like cool rocks and stuff. And a leaf shaped in a heart.
You also had to explain to him about what being demiromantic meant.
After he understood what it meant, he happily was buzzing around because it made him feel smart- LMAO. AS IF YOU DIDNT JUST EXPLAIN SOMETHING VERY SERIOUS. He finally understood something really serious, sh leave little happy boy alone <3

Tag Games
Okay, so I haven't really been responding to any tag games since two months ago and I know I'm the worst but I'm going to do them all now in a row in here, and if you guys have tagged me, know that I saw it and appreciated it I just didn't have the mental capacity at the time and now I find myself with way too many tag games I didn't even respond to and feeling extremely guilty...

open your spotify “on repeat” and the first five songs are the soundtrack to your personal rom-com
Renegade (feat. Taylor Swift) - Big Red Machine, Taylor Swift
Starting Line - Luke Hemmings
That Funny Feeling - Bo Burnham
gold rush - Taylor Swift
You Stupid Bitch - girl in red
That is... I can see that as a romcom soundtrack 😂
***
Okay next up, Maya @calumsash , I am so so sorry I haven't even acknowledge your tags... I have like 3 of yours piled up, I'm so sorry :S
How similar is my taste in music to yours:
Tumblr media
For this tag, (reblog with the meaning/origin of my url and my favorite color) my url is pretty easy to explain hahahha I stole it from an All Time Low song 🤭 "i'm sick and tired of false devotion" and well, idk, I just liked it hahahahah I was setting up a new tumblr just for fics and here we are (I even fell back down the spn rabbit hole when I was only ever meant to post about bands XDDD). For the longest time I couldn't decide between blue and purple for my favourite colour and then I chose neither: it's green. Forest green hahahahah
For today's tag (I can't believe I'm actually answering to a tag game on the day I've been tagged O.o), which is this one, here are my answers:
1. Favourite song at the moment
I don't know if I'd call it favourite but, I haven't been able to stop singing American Pie since thursday night thanks to Black Widow 😅😅 It doesn't help that I've known all the lyrics to it since I was little thanks to my dad because I'm basically singing over and over a song that's 8 and a half minutes long hahahahah
2. A song you associate with your favourite ship
Is it too self-serving and lazy of me if I copy your answer and say Paper Rings Maya?😅 hahahaha No, for real, that song (even though parts of it don't align with cashton on athob) is forever tied to them for me 💙
3. A song that could be about you
This is me trying there are just more than a couple of lines that hit too close to home
4. A song you think is underrated
Outside of ATL or 5sos or Taylor I never go much into music fandoms so... I don't know how to answer. Any song I could say is underrated could very well be a fan favorite and I just don't know... 😅
5. A song that reminds you of a good memory
Sonrisa Especial by El Sueño de Morfeo reminds me of a period of my childhood were I wasn't sad all the time (which was rare in my childhood tbh), it's an obnoxiously happy and uplifting song that I can't relate to most days but when I do, it's quite special hahahha
6. The last song you listened to
... American Pie 😅😅😅
7. A song that makes you laugh
I Hate by Passenger, it never fails to make me laugh hahahah
8. A song you want your mutuals to listen to
ufff, anything by Kina Grannis I can't pick just one song, I can't
Thank you so so much for the tags Maya 🥺🥺🥺💙💙💙💙

...
Lupe was having the luckiest bad day of their life, and if it didn't let up soon, they were going to collapse from the stress.
First, it had been the flooding—an event that easily could have killed a dozen people or more, but from which Lupe had escaped without getting so much as a toe in the water. Then it was getting trapped in the swanky office building, where they were sure to get caught and arrested, only to see on the news that the only thing stopping them from leaving was some weirdo up on the roof. And then, it was ARCOM's killer robot and its—handler?—which had almost shot Lupe dead on the spot but decided not to at the last second, instead chasing off after the weirdo in the mask and opening, however unintentionally, Lupe's escape.
So Lupe had hidden in the stairwell in case the Division showed up before the water cleared (they hadn't), and had taken the back-alleys and underpasses out of downtown in case the regular cops were looking for them (they weren't), and was now holed up in a booth at the back of the one Powered bar in Albuquerque, accompanied only by the tinnitus ringing in their ears, nursing a gin and tonic and supposing they ought to feel relieved.
They didn't.
An acrylic nail tapping on the table brought them back to the present. Their favorite bartender, Jess, was standing table-side, rainbow dreadlocks bright against dark skin.
"Starting to pick up in here, honey," she said. "You might wanna start thinking about heading out, before you lose all your elbow room."
"You can't just let me out the back again?" Lupe asked.
"I'd love to, except Cindy's working tonight, and she's been looking for an excuse to fire me."
"Is Cindy the racist one?"
"Take a wild guess."
Lupe winced. "Okay. Thanks for letting me know. Is it okay if I finish my drink first, or. . . ?"
"You got time. I'll get you a lemonade to go so we ain't just kicking you out. On the house."
"Are you sure? You don't have to."
She pressed a hand to her chest and sighed hugely. "If I don't, you might leave us a bad review."
"I couldn't even if I wanted to," they said.
"It's a joke, we're already drowning in bad reviews from normies. Zero stars, service was terrible and it was full of mutants, I felt sooooo threatened when everybody got mad at me for calling them slurs."
Lupe snorted. "Has that happened?"
"Weekly, honey, weekly."
"I'm sorry."
She grinned. "It's all good. They never stick around too long." She tapped her nail on the table again, and a breath of blue flame rolled up the back of her hand. "Lemme get you that lemonade before I forget."
Lupe gave her a lazy, two-finger salute as she moved off. They sucked down a few good gulps of their gin and tonic. Maybe Jess had gone a little heavy on the gin, or maybe it was just that Lupe hadn't eaten in almost twenty-four hours, but it was hitting them harder than usual. They checked their pockets for change and found about four dollars—and since they were getting kicked out before they could get another drink, maybe they'd go get a burger, instead. As they stuffed the cash back in their pocket, somebody pulled up to their booth.
"Mind if I join you?"
He was white, mousy, and freckly, with short-cropped brown hair and a midwestern accent. He was wearing thick-rimmed glasses, a green flannel over a band T-shirt, dark jeans washed a few too many times. He had a drink in each hand.
"I—I was actually just leaving, sorry, it's all yours," said Lupe, scooching outward.
The guy's face fell. "You were?"
"Yeah, it just—I just have to—" They cast around for Jess, but she was nowhere to be seen. They didn't need the free lemonade, anyway; they should get out of here while they could, before this poor guy put a foot in the wrong place and got electrocuted.
"I guess I have to drink both of these, now," he sighed, looking down at the two drinks. One was a beer. The other was clear and bubbly and had a slice of orange in it.
"Well," said Lupe. They fidgeted. "You weren't—you didn't—did you. . . ?"
He offered the cocktail to them. "It was supposed to be for you," he said hopefully.
Lupe fidgeted some more. The room wasn't too crowded yet, and one drink couldn't hurt, especially if it was free. Jess was up at the bar now, busy with a large group of young women that had just come in. Lupe gestured to the other side of the booth.
"I'll save you from the spare drink," they said. "Just be careful where you put your feet, I run at a pretty lethal voltage."
The guy stopped halfway to sitting down. He stared. Lupe shrugged.
"No wonder you're back here all by yourself," the guy said faintly.
"Yeah," said Lupe. "It's fine if you—"
The guy slid the rest of the way into the booth and pulled his feet up after him, sitting cross-legged. With one finger, he pushed the cocktail across to Lupe.
"It's a Tom Collins," he said. "You struck me as the ginny type."
"That—that's a nine-dollar drink," Lupe objected, torn between being flattered and gravely suspicious.
"Yeah," said the guy. He gestured to his own. "And this is a three-dollar beer, split the difference."
Lupe struggled for words. They looked from the cocktail to the guy and back again. They swirled the tiny straws around in case it stirred up any suspicious white powder, which it didn't.
"What did you say your name was?" Lupe asked the guy.
"Zach," he said. "He/him pronouns, if anybody's counting."
"Oh—oh," said Lupe. Something fluttered in their chest, a sigh of relief. "I'm Lupe. Um. They/them."
"Pleased to meet you," said Zach. "I'd shake your hand, but—"
"Yeah, don't—don't do that. So, you—so—you're . . . Powered? I mean, Watt's, it's sort of—it's not like they card you, and if that's too personal, obviously, you don't have to answer, I just. . . ."
"Barely," Zach said, amused but taking pity. "Just enough to make my normie friends nervous."
"Do you mind if I ask what it is?"
"Eh, sure. You showed me yours, I'll show you mine."
In the blink of an eye, he was gone—into thin air, without so much as a puff of smoke or a flash of light. Before Lupe had gotten done being surprised, though, he was back, scrunching his nose like he needed to sneeze.
"That's not barely," said Lupe, astounded.
"No, it doesn't work like you think it does. For example—cameras. It doesn't work on cameras, for some reason. I'm like a reverse-vampire or something. And it gives me migraines if I hold it for more than a minute or so."
"Ohhh, yeah, that—that's not great. I guess it's fun at parties?"
"It's the best at parties," Zach said viciously, grinning. "I hate parties. And now nobody can make me stay, because as soon as nobody's looking, I can literally disappear."
Lupe chuckled and had a sip of their cocktail. It was mild and delicious, like a carbonated gin-lemonade, and there was no hint of a salty Rohypnol aftertaste. Maybe, they thought, this guy really was just being nice.
"Silver linings?" they said. "I don't know, I haven't been to a party in . . . Christ, probably twenty years."
Zach sucked in a breath through his teeth, wincing. "Yeah, what with the voltage and everything, I guess that's probably a little fraught. Don't worry, you're not missing much. Parties suck."
"But bars don't?"
"So long as there's no parties going on in them."
Lupe stirred their drink, being careful not to touch the table. At the bar, Jess was entertaining the group of young women, lighting their drinks on fire with her fingers (to their great delight). Zach watched them, amused, his chin on his hand, his beer untouched.
"Um," said Lupe. "I um. Look, before, um . . . I appreciate the drink, and the—the company, but I just want to make it clear that I'm not really, um, interested in—in—not that you're not—but I'm, sort of, very asexual? So—"
Zach turned back to them, startled. "What? No, no, that's not what this is about. I'm straight."
"You're what?" said Lupe. Their face went hot. "Oh, no, of course, right, I just—"
"Not that you're not a good-looking guy—sorry, person. You're just not my type."
"No, yeah, same, but I just kind of . . . forgot about straight people. Hahah."
"You don't get out much, huh," said Zach, with that same amused-pity look from before.
"I'm homeless, I'm always out," said Lupe, and then realized that it was a top-tier idiot thing to say.
"Holy shit, seriously?" Zach said. "You don't look—okay, you kind of do look homeless, but I figured that was just a fashion choice."
"And you don't look like an ignorant dick, but here we are," Lupe retorted. Maybe they'd had a little too much to drink. Whatever. A remark like that deserved a little snappishness.
Zach winced. "Okay, I deserved that," he said. "But—man, that's rough. Do you need a place to stay, or something? I could put you up at a hotel for a couple of days, or—"
"Don't, just—don't," Lupe sighed, holding up a hand. "It doesn't work. Unless you can find a hotel that doesn't use keycards, it won't work. Just—forget I said anything."
"Are you sure?" Zach pressed. "You could stay at my place, if you needed to. Not forever, I'm kind of already maxed out on roommates, but for a while. Until you get—"
"Get my feet back underneath me?" Lupe filled in. "Sure, I just have to find a job where they don't require you to touch any computers, machines, or other people. Oh, and it has to be no-experience-required, too, and no high school diploma, and not need a physical address or an ID or a phone number, and and and. It won't happen. Trust me."
Zach stared at them, full-pity, looking like a lost puppy in the rain. Lupe shook their head and muttered in Spanish under their breath and looked someplace else. The pity was always the hardest to take.
"Well—do you want dinner, then?" Zach asked. "I could buy you dinner, at least."
"I don't want your goddamn charity," Lupe snapped. A bolt cracked off their wrist and earthed in the center of the table. Someone shrieked. Zach froze, whey-faced. The smell of burnt lacquer rose in a plume. Lupe ground their teeth and took deep breaths and waited for the whine in their ears to soften. Before it did, Jess sidled over.
"Hey, honey," she said. "Hate to butt in, but I think it's about time for you to be heading on out."
"Yeah," said Lupe. They abandoned the rest of their cocktail and got up, dizzy. "Sorry about the table."
"Don't worry about it. You ain't hardly the worst thing that's happened to a table in here."
They faked a smile, nodded to her, and headed for the door. Despite the crowd, a wide path opened for them. Every eye in the place watched as they went.

1: when you have cereal, do you have more milk than cereal or more cereal than milk? more cereal than milk - nothing worse than soggy cereal.
2: do you like the feeling of cold air on your cheeks on a wintery day? love it!
3: what random objects do you use to bookmark your books? it used to be whatever was to hand but now I don’t use them and just remember the page number.
4: how do you take your coffee/tea? I haaaaaate coffee, if I was drinking normal tea (which is rare for me), i’d have it with a little milk and two sugars, but my go-to hot drink these days is lemon and ginger tea.
5: are you self-conscious of your smile? i’m self-conscious about every part of my body.
6: do you keep plants? not even plastic ones.
7: do you name your plants? see above. but if I did have them, i’d definitely name them.
8: what artistic medium do you use to express your feelings? does colouring in count? that or I dabble in writing but i’m not good at that and I haven’t tried it in a really long time.
9: do you like singing/humming to yourself? always!
10: do you sleep on your back, side, or stomach? on my front with one leg propped up at a 90 degree angle hahah.
11: what’s an inner joke you have with your friends? probably just quoting movies alllllll the time.
12: what’s your favorite planet? pluto! i also kinda love Saturn? also quite like Jupiter and Neptune.
13: what’s something that made you smile today? I had to get a bandage over my eye, but to hold it in place properly it was wrapped around my head and I laughed at myself as I was leaving hospital cos I could only imagine what I looked like.
14: if you were to live with your best friend in an old flat in a big city, what would it look like? the flat itself? probably very high ceilings as they’re all like that here. I do like the idea of a more modern one that's like, loads of glass everywhere. i’d like a flat to feel quite spacious too.
15: go google a weird space fact and tell us what it is! i’m too lazy to google and if I started that I would just read space facts all night, however I do know this one; if you screamed to someone next to you in space they wouldn't be able to hear you, as space is totally silent. you need air to carry sound vibrations, and there’s none of that in space. that’s mind-blowing!
16: what’s your favorite pasta dish? anything with pasta in it really. I am partial to an arrabiata though.
17: what color do you really want to dye your hair? I miss it being purple. i’d like to have gone for some sort of aqua-blue in my younger years, but it’s probably just as well I didn’t - I hardly have any healthy hair left because I dye it so much.
18: tell us about something dumb/funny you did that has since gone down in history between you and your friends and is always brought up. I do stupid things all the time so there’s no really good example, but one that springs to mind is when I got my hand trapped in a bus door when I was trying to get off haha.
19: do you keep a journal? what do you write/draw/ in it? no.
20: what’s your favorite eye color? I don’t have a preference.
21: talk about your favorite bag, the one that’s been to hell and back with you and that you love to pieces. my current favourite bag hasn’t really been to hell and back with me, but it is my newest one and I absolutely adore it. it’s a really nice shade of blue leather and the interior is like a baby pink colour, and it was a Christmas gift, and it goes perfectly with the majority of my outfits.
22: are you a morning person? not really.
23: what’s your favorite thing to do on lazy days where you have 0 obligations? eat and watch Disney or Netflix.
24: is there someone out there you would trust with every single one of your secrets? yep.
25: what’s the weirdest place you’ve ever broken into? I've never broken into anywhere.
26: what are the shoes you’ve had for forever and wear with every single outfit? these days it’s just my one pair of skechers that I wore to work all the time. that or I have an older pair of ugg boots that I now use to wear around the house as a form of slippers.
27: what’s your favorite bubblegum flavor? I only really eat chewing gum, and it has to be blue extra!
28: sunrise or sunset? depends on my mood. right now i’d go for sunrise.
29: what’s something really cute that one of your friends does and is totally endearing? on every occasion where I've gotten some good news (both examples here are for when I got accepted into college/uni courses that I've wanted for YEARS), she’s written me out a card - or a page on a notebook and sent a picture - and it has congratulations and little notes of encouragement on them.
30: think of it: have you ever been truly scared? yes.
31: what is your opinion of socks? do you like wearing weird socks? do you sleep with socks? do you confine yourself to white sock hell? really, just talk about socks. ok, here we go. I have many thoughts on this. socks must be worn at ALL TIMES when you are wearing shoes, and the only exception to this rule is if you are wearing flip-flops or something similar (and if that’s the case then your toenails need to be painted, but that’s a whole other story). i’ll NOT have this not wearing socks with trainers rubbish. I don’t really like socks being visible when you’re wearing trainers or boots (unless it’s the cut socks with boots that have the ruffles or something), so I almost exclusively wear those invisible socks. the idea of mixing white/black shoes with the opposite colour socks unsettles me greatly, but if they’re invisible it’s not as big a deal. odd socks didn't bother me when I was younger, but now they’re a giant no from me. and finally, fluffy bed socks are a necessity when you’re in your pj’s or loungewear. they are also the only acceptable socks that you can wear in bed; sometimes I wear them and sometimes I don’t, but I would NEVER wear normal socks to bed. I told you I had many feelings about this hahah.
32: tell us a story of something that happened to you after 3AM when you were with friends. probably just drinking - we don’t tend to stay up that late unless we’re on a night out lol.
33: what’s your fave pastry? ngl, I love croissants.
34: tell us about the stuffed animal you kept as a kid. what is it called? what does it look like? do you still keep it? my all-time favourite teddy when I was younger was a postman pat one that my younger sister ‘brought’ me when she was born. there was his black and white cat teddy too but that got lost when we moved house when I was 4. I do still have the postman pat one somewhere, i’m sure my mum kept it. other favourites of mine included a Quasimodo and an esmarelda but I don’t have them anymore.
35: do you like stationary and pretty pens and so on? do you use them often? Y E S. and i’m constantly buying more for college and uni. and i’m about to start teacher training and the stationary part of that job ALONE is enough to make it a dream job.
36: which band’s sound would fit your mood right now? I've been in a real 5sos mood recently if that counts?
37: do you like keeping your room messy or clean? I obviously much prefer it when it’s clean, however it’s the getting to that stage that I hate.
38: tell us about your pet peeves! people who don’t remove the labels from the bottom of their shoes. people who chew loudly or with their mouths opened (SERIOUSLY). those are the first two that came to mind and the thoughts alone are enough to rile me up so i’m gonna stop there haha.
39: what color do you wear the most? black or blue.
40: think of a piece of jewelry you own: what’s it’s story? does it have any meaning to you? my mum and dad bought me a pandora necklace; it’s a long black rope one with a large panda sort of charm/pendant hanging from it. I don’t wear it often. they bought me it when I graduated from uni in Edinburgh, and the panda is relevant because during my time there was the time that the two giant panda’s came to Edinburgh zoo. I always like that story.
41: what’s the last book you remember really, really loving? harry potter was the last one I (re)read (fu jk rowling), and i’m pretty sure the hp books are the only books I've ever reread so i’ll just go for them.
42: do you have a favorite coffee shop? describe it! I don’t drink hot drinks, so no. although there is a starbucks in our local cinema and I always love going in there cos the folk who work there are lovely.
43: who was the last person you gazed at the stars with? myself.
44: when was the last time you remember feeling completely serene and at peace with everything? ooft, I don’t think I've ever felt that.
45: do you trust your instincts a lot? yes, they usually tend to be right.
46: tell us the worst pun you can think of. my dad is so bad for these so I should be able to think of something, but nothing’s springing to mind.
47: what food do you think should be banned from the universe? BANANAS. or even better - BANANAS on PIZZA. curse to hell the idiot who came up with that - that fucker should be burned at the stake.
48: what was your biggest fear as a kid? is it the same today? the ocean. and yes. the vastness and darkness of it all actually makes me feel physically sick. even thinking about it now has given me that sort of feeling of PURE DREAD in the pit of my stomach. and also sharks. just a massive nope for me.
49: do you like buying CDs and records? what was the last one you bought? I don’t even have a means of playing cd’s anymore, but the last one I bought was all time low’s new album wake up sunshine, which got delivered a few days ago. I already bought the album on iTunes, but I wanted a physical copy of the cd too.
50: what’s an odd thing you collect? the only thing I collect (now) is concert tickets. before, I literally would keep every cinema ticket ever. I had tickets from films that were out in ‘06.
51: think of a person. what song do you associate with them? I thought of my mum and then I immediately thought of follow the yellow brick road from the wizard of oz because it’s her favourite film.
52: what are your favorite memes of the year so far? all of the memes have been covid-related and they got real old real fast.
53: have you ever watched the rocky horror picture show? heathers? beetlejuice? pulp fiction? what do you think of them? literally, I've seen half of pulp fiction and that’s it.
54: who’s the last person you saw with a true look of sadness on their face? my bestie.
55: what’s the most dramatic thing you’ve ever done to prove a point? i’d only ever be dramatic in talking hypothetically, so I've never really carried out anything that could prove a point (that I can think of, I may be wrong), but I can get pretty dramatic when ranting so...
56: what are some things you find endearing in people? people’s laughs.
57: go listen to bohemian rhapsody. how did it make you feel? did you dramatically reenact the lyrics? I don’t need to listen to it to know it makes me feel extra haha. and if you don’t dramatically reenact the lyrics, have you even truly listened to the song?
58: who’s the wine mom and who’s the vodka aunt in your group of friends? why? ok the wine mom could be one of two of my friends, because one really is a mother and could probably do with a few glasses of wine, and the other is just the mother of the group, and the remaining friend is the vodka aunt. and there’s no real reason, she just is the fun aunt who would buy her nieces drink when they’re underaged.
59: what’s your favorite myth? ohhh,that some people think humans and dinosaurs existed at the same time. HOW can that be true? these people blow my mind. also, one that we spoke about recently in college; that there is an autism pandemic. not true, we’ve simply come up with better ways and means of testing and/or diagnosing. many people diagnosed nowadays are adults who were misdiagnosed as children, and that’s a major factor in why there seems to be a spike. just interesting.
60: do you like poetry? what are some of your faves? I don’t really like it.
61: what’s the stupidest gift you’ve ever given? the stupidest one you’ve ever received? the stupidest one I've ever given wasn’t really stupid but more funny, which was beard baubles for my dad at christmas, and one of the stupidest one I've ever received what a keyring which was one of those balls of fluff, but it had like, a small baby doll’s face in it. it was terrifying.
62: do you drink juice in the morning? which kind? either water or a little diluting juice.
63: are you fussy about your books and music? do you keep them meticulously organized or kinda leave them be? I don’t have many of either, but they’re all alphabetical, by author/artist then by title.
64: what color is the sky where you are right now? practically black as it’s nearly 1am.
65: is there anyone you haven’t seen in a long time who you’d love to hang out with? yeh but that’s a definite no-go.
66: what would your ideal flower crown look like? there’d be some green, yellow, pink/purple, white, maybe blue. some daisy’s would be nice.
67: how do gloomy days where the sky is dark and the world is misty make you feel? depends on the season because if it’s autumn then I like it but if it’s summer then it sucks.
68: what’s winter like where you live? honestly? just the same as literally every other season - in Scotland you get four seasons in a day most days.
69: what are your favorite board games? I used to love this harry potter game I had which was similar to cluedo. anything that’s a quiz I like.
70: have you ever used a ouija board? noooooo and I never will. they’re also legit banned from my house.
71: what’s your favorite kind of tea? lemon and ginger.

75: tell us about your pets! in my lifetime my family have owened almost 30 pets including budgies, fish, hamsters, cats, dogs, lovebirds and gerbils. I only have one living pet now who is an all black cat. we had a doggo who was the best doggo in all the land and I miss him so much.
76: is there anything you should be doing right now but aren’t? sleeping.
77: pink or yellow lemonade? i’m partial to some pink lemonade.
78: are you in the minion hateclub or fanclub? fanclub. KING BOB!
79: what’s one of the cutest things someone has ever done for you? probably a very nice or thoughtful gift.
80: what color are your bedroom walls? did you choose that color? if so, why? they’re pink, and I have two large mdf boards which are a mint green. and I did choose them, just under a year ago we were decorating the house and I fancied a change. shocked me to my core tbh cos pink is definitely not a colour i’d have thought to pick, but the pink and green match in really well with the grey I have picked out for soft furnishings and my white furniture so i’m happy.
81: describe one of your friend’s eyes using the most abstract imagery you can think of. i’m not gonna do that i’m so tired.
82: are/were you good in school? I was, I still give myself a complex when there’s even the smallest possibility of rule-breaking.
83: what’s some of your favorite album art? probably an all time low related one?
84: are you planning on getting tattoos? which ones? I have five already, but I have a list of more that I want in my phone. they’re all mostly small ones.
85: do you read comics? what are your faves? I don’t.
86: do you like concept albums? which ones? the only one I think I've ever heard is pink floyd’s the wall, and honestly, i’m not fussed either way. I may have heard more but just don’t know.
87: what are some movies you think everyone should watch at least once in their lives? high school musical. everyone needs to understand the hype.
88: are there any artistic movements you particularly enjoy? ...no.
89: are you close to your parents? yeah.
90: talk about your one of you favorite cities. I like venice, London, Edinburgh but also Glasgow. got to have the hometown.
91: where do you plan on traveling this year? literally fuckin’ nowhere except to and from uni. thanks covid for blessing us w your presence.
92: are you a person who drowns their pasta in cheese or a person who barely sprinkles a pinch? drowns. always drowns.
93: what’s the hairstyle you wear the most? messy bun. i’m lazy. if it’s down though I tend to curl it.
94: who was the last person you know to have a birthday? my friend.
95: what are your plans for this weekend? oh, big plans. i’m gonna paint my nails and help my mum konmari her drawers and wardrobes. big, biiig plans.
96: do you install your computer updates really quickly or do you procrastinate on them a lot? on my last laptop I procrastinated on them so much that they would forcibly shut down my computer and install themselves eventually, to the point where it would take over 7 hours to do it, until I eventually gave up on it. with my new one though I do it right away and it’s done in seconds. believe me; lesson learned.
97: myer briggs type, zodiac sign, and hogwarts house? isfj; aquarius; slytherclaw (I was slytherin for years, and then was resorted as ravenclaw, and now every time I take one of those buzzfeed percentage ones, I get almost 25% per house, so I just chose to combine the two official sortings I got and be done with it).
98: when’s the last time you went hiking? did you enjoy it? wouldn’t say hike really, but last year at least, and I do enjoy that sort of stuff.
99: list some songs that resonate to your soul whenever you hear them. safe, six feet under the stars, and weightless, all by all time low, reckless by youmeatsix, December by neck deep.
100: if you were presented with two buttons, one that allows you to go 5 years into the past, the other 5 years into the future, which one would you press? why? if I went into the past I could fix a couple of monumental mistakes just to see if my theories of how things would have worked out are correct, but if I went into the future i’d with any luck be in my dream job so that’s a tricky one. the way i’m feeling right now i’d lean towards the past.

Prism Rush Main Story Episode 7 Chapter 3
Your Dreams and Mine #3
First Previous Chapter
Translator’s notes: Minato calls Kakeru “Juuouin” in this one and I can’t remember another time when that has happened. Yeah he usually calls the other Edel Rose boys by their last names, but Kakeru has always been the special one that he calls by his first name... Kazuo! I think there are two interpretations: Either he calls him Juuouin during certain serious discussions. OR... the person who wrote the past few chapters isn’t someone who pays enough attention to how Minato refers to other characters ahaha. I think the latter is more likely actually since there have been several slip-ups lately. But to be fair there were even similar slip ups in the original Pride the Hero script and I’m not exactly innocent myself. (Sometimes I have to insert names into dialogue when there aren’t any in the Japanese, and then two days later I’ll realize I used the wrong one like...shit hahah.) Sorry, anyway...
Tumblr media
Hiro: Kazuki! How many rice cakes do you want?
Tumblr media
Kazuki: Hm... I think today I’ll go for five!
Hiro: FIVE?! You’ve really got to watch your carbs!
Tumblr media
Keeping in shape is an important part of being a prism star, you know. You’ll take three.
Kazuki: Hey, come on now....
Hiro: Here you go! Hiro Hayami’s special New Year’s soup is complete!
Kazuki: Wow! It looks delicious! I’m diggin’ in... Hm?
Hiro: Something seems kinda... off... doesn’t it?
Kazuki: It seems really thin... like it’s missing something... Did you forget the soup stock?
Tumblr media
Hiro: Soup stock?? You need to put... stock in it?
Kazuki: You didn’t put any soup stock in it? Well that’s why it tastes like nothing! Aah.... I miss Kouji’s  special New Year soup.....
Hiro: Well, excuse me! I’ve never made it before.... And besides, your rolled omelettes weren’t even rolled!
Tumblr media
Kazuki: But it tastes the same either way, doesn’t it?
Hiro: I guess we’re both failures at New Year’s cooking....
Kazuki: Kouji’s New Year meal was so luxurious... But well, as long as the two of us still get to spend time together, it still feels like a New Year holiday.
Hiro: You’re right. We won’t have time like this again for a while....
Kazuki: Yeah.... This is probably our last day off before the Prism King Cup.
Tumblr media
Hiro: From now on, you and I are going to be rivals Kazuki.
Tumblr media
Kazuki. Yep. So let’s just enjoy this last day as friends.
Hiro: Yeah!
(Later)
Tumblr media
Leo: Ahhh... I bought so many nice things... Yu-kun, thanks for carrying everything for me!
Tumblr media
Yu: So... heavy. I think my arms are gonna fall off.
Leo: Aahhh I’m sorry! I’ll help y--
Yu: Oh no you don’t! Whenever I let you carry things, everyone gives me the stink eye because it looks like I’m making a girl carry stuff....
Leo: Tha... that’s awful! I’m obviously a boy!
Yu: But anyway, why did you need to buy so much cloth?
Leo: Well, I wanted it to keep it a secret... but I guess I can tell you.
Tumblr media
I’ve decided... I want to make outfits for the Prism King Cup!
Yu: Outfits for the Prism King Cup.... But we won’t even know who’s gonna be able to compete in it until right before it happens!
Leo: Exactly. That’s why I need to make outfits for everyone!
Yu: What?! Why would go so far....
Leo: Because you are all my important friends... I want to do everything I can for you guys! I know all about what colors you guys look best in, who looks better casual, who looks better formal. Everything!
Yu: Leo....
Leo: Making the best possible clothing for everyone to look their best is exactly what I can do to best contribute to Edel Rose....! Even if I don’t get to be in the Prism King Cup, I still want to do my best for everyone!
Yu: Leo... you’re always saying you wish you could be more manly. But your will is so strong, and that’s where your strength lies.
Tumblr media
I think you’re a pretty cool dude.
Tumblr media
Leo: ....! Thank you so much!
(Kakeru’s room)
Tumblr media
Minato: Coming in!
Kakeru: Hey hey, Minatocchi! You can’t just barge in unannounced!
Minato: Sorry, sorry. I didn’t have a free hand to knock. You’ve been holed up in here for a long time so I brought you a snack.
Tumblr media
Kakeru: Well, that was nice of you. Ooh, rice balls with salty seaweed!
Minato: It’s hard to get in here so I’ll just leave them here. Oops! Sorry, I knocked over a book...
Kakeru: Sorry, I just kinda piled them up wherever....
Minato: “Secrets of Marketing”, ”Show Business That Draws a Crowd” ... Could it be you’re studying for the Prism King Cup?
Tumblr media
Kakeru: Not really.. Uh.. Well... Yeah.... It’s not such a big deal....
Minato: Well I think that’s great...
Kakeru; Huh?
Minato: You’re working hard behind the scenes, building knowledge, and preparing to fight with intellect. You’re going toe-to-toe at an adult level, but nothing is stopping you... With your brain fighting for us we’ll surely succeed.
Kakeru; I...
Tumblr media
Minato: Meanwhile, all I can do to help is just make rice balls...
Kakeru; That’s not true!!
Minato: Huh?
Kakeru: It may be true that I have some things that you don’t. But!
Tumblr media
Minatocchi, you have this warmth and broad-mindedness that I just don’t have... You’re always just so kind to everyone, and... I don’t think it’s that all that easy.
Minato: Juuouin....
Kakeru: In fact, I think it’s because we both have qualities the other is lacking that we are going to be able to accomplish big things. Right?
Minato: ...Yeah, you’re right.
Tumblr media
Kakeru: ....Or something like that!! Just messing around haha!
Tumblr media
Minato: ...Thank you. I think I got what you meant.
(Outside)
Tumblr media
Yukinojo: Taiga, I have a favor to ask...
Taiga: Huh? Tachibana-senpai, what is it?
Yukinojo: Could you take me to Alexander Yamato?
Tumblr media
Taiga: Wha....?! Why....?!
Yukinojo: I think I would like to train with him before the Prism King Cup.
Taiga: That’s crazy....!
Yukinojo: Crazy...? What do you mean?  The Prism King Cup is the tournament to determine the top prism star.  
Tumblr media
I think you have to be willing to take some crazy risks on your life in order to reach that peak.
Taiga: ...Got it. I may have some idea where to find him.
(On the street)
Tumblr media
Taiga: I think he should be around here somewhere... But I guess even he takes a break from practice on New Year’s....
Yukinojo: It seems that way. It’s too bad we couldn’t run into him. Brr... All of a sudden the wind just got quite strong..
Taiga: You’re right. It wasn’t like just this a moment ago... AAHH!!!
Yukinojo: Taiga, what’s wrong?
Taiga: Look closer... over there... He’s so fast you can barely see him but... Alexander is over there doing a head spin at mach speed rotation!
Yukinojo: Wha.. WHAT?!
Tumblr media
Alexander: HAHAHAH! So you finally noticed, huh?
Taiga: So you were creating all that strong wind...!
Yukinojo: By spinning too fast to be seen by the naked eye..!
Alexander: I’m not letting the title of ”King” go to some lazy losers who sit around gobbling down rice cakes on New Year’s!
Tumblr media
Yukinojo: Alexander! I would like to challenge you again...!
Tumblr media
Alexander: Don’t be silly! I would be a waste of my time! HUAAAAAH!
Taiga: Woah!! A tornado?!
Yukinojo: It’s a hurricane! Taiga, take cover!
Taiga: .... It died down...? Alexander is....?!
Yukinojo: He’s gone...
Taiga: How did he...
Yukinojo: ...I guess maybe I underestimated him a little.
Taiga: Yeah. The Prism King Cup is going to be something ridiculous....!
Yukinojo: We have to be fully prepared.
Tumblr media
Taiga: I’m gonna crush him, you’ll see...!
(By the river)
Shin: This was where I first met Louis... and learned about prism shows.
Tumblr media
And now...!
Next Chapter.
