I was reading a post in which person is arguing why Sirius is more mature and better father figure for harry than james. Arguments - "he is more politically minded, he had a rough childhood so he had to grow up fast , james(21age) was sheltered and ignorant. Also james was whining about cooped up in the house. Lily should have been with Sirius handsomer, cooler and overall better choice".
But you know what example they gave to show james was childish " he was playing with harry like a child even in his death scene" this makes me angry loving father making his son laugh is now considered to be childish now.
I also have see many people resenting james for having loving parents like it was his fault. Even narrative sort that of blames him " well cared of" dunno why it bugs me.
I will like to know your thoughts
While I have this soft spot for Starflower, I cannot see Lily with anyone but James—and a James who grew away past his 16-year-old-stupidity and is not "child" by any chance.
But to address the points here:
Sirius is more politically minded: probably, he grew up in a family that dealt with wizarding society, whereas that was not the Potter's case. But I don't see how this interacts with being a better father or a better person.
Sirius had a rough childhood so he had to grow up fast: eeeer, there is no evidence, not really. Until Sirius rebelled (Gryffindor, befriending muggleborns and halfbloods, running away from home) he was probably the perfect well-cared heir (of course, care doesn't equal Love, but draws back the idea of rough childhood)
James was sheltered and ignorant: For the first 11 years of his life? Mostly likely. But he befriends Remus, shelters Sirius and is in love with a muggleborn at a time where prejudices are well-defined, where you needed to take a side. He had enough moral to join the Order, putting himself in danger even though he wouldn't need with his perfect pureblood status.
James was whining. The literal quote from Lily is "he tries not to show it, but I can tell". Come on.
James was childish. You answered this one, anon, I won't even bother.
Resenting James for having loving parents. I think this misses the point of James' backstory. I know this was just supposed to contrast with Snape's tragic story, but also having loving parents gave James confidence, made him a beacon of light for his misfit friends, and yes, added to that bullying toerag part of his life. (which, again, he grew out of). What I don't get is how you can resent someone for not having a dysfunctional family... like that's a bad thing? LOL
I think I covered all points, but to make this clear: Sirius was the best godfather Harry could have. He devoted great part of his life to try to protect Harry (Sirius needing to take a look at Harry right after he escapes, just to make sure Harry was all right, is a personal underrated moment for me); he cared for Harry and he loved his godson. Compare him to James is pointless because James died before Harry could have him as a father figure, but, in the way I see, James Potter would have been the best father.

Hey! I was wondering if you could write Crosshair going to the reader for random cuddles no matter where they are, late at night or out on the beach with the batch. BTW, I love the way you write and it never fails to get me inspired to draw our favorite clone boys. Good luck with Uni!
warnings: none
w/c: 1.6k
a/n: ahh tysm for this request! i got a little carried away lol but it's just because i had a lot of fun writing it! :-) hope this helps stoke the artistic imagination! (and thankfully uni is out for the summer so i have more time for our favorite clone boys)
It’s one of the better known facts that Crosshair doesn’t like to be touched, even if warranted, even if he’s asked. There are too many variables in another’s hands: accidents happen, sabotage is never unlikely, and sometimes youthful fear rears its cruel head, and he is flooded with the knee-jerk reflex of memories in the alabaster halls of Tipoca.
So the first time you cuddle with Crosshair, it’s just as much of a disaster as you expect it to be.
Crosshair lies like a corpse over the centre of your bunk, back rigid and ramrod straight, his deathly look complete with the ridiculous bandage criss-crossed over his hairline (courtesy of the simple joys of a ten metre human javelin toss and Wrecker’s miscalculated aim).
Where painkillers weren’t quite enough to keep the concussion headaches at bay, he’d somehow come to the conclusion that you would be. And who were you to turn down a sullen Crosshair mumbling awkwardly for cuddles at your door?
With careful hands and just enough of a firm touch to coax him onto his side without spooking him out of his moping, you maneuver him with his back towards the wall and gently push him further in before you climb onto the space beside him. He flashes you an uncertain look, and you offer him a wry smile in return.
“Relax a little,” you say, lifting his limp arm and slotting yourself against his side until your chests are flush. It’s less cuddling than it is you trying to mold yourself around the hard, firm lines of the tension etched into Crosshair’s muscle and poise. But if he was willing to put aside his standoffish pride to ask you for cuddles, you won’t deny him. Finally content with your arrangement, you lift your chin and fix him with a wry smile. “I can’t spoon a board.”
“Was that an insult?” he offers, a weak attempt at his usual wit that comes out as more of a whimper than bite. But to his credit, he’s listening to you, and you feel him shifting slightly in an attempt to make himself comfortable despite his somewhat unsettled expression.
“Maybe,” you counter. “Loosen your shoulders. Stop tensing. Cuddle, Crosshair.”
“I’m trying,” he mutters, and when you close your eyes to laugh, you barely miss the small upward turn of his lips.
When you wake up the next morning, you feel reborn, all loose-limbed, sated joy as you stretch your arms to your side, expecting Crosshair’s lean form curled close. Instead, you find yourself alone in your bunk, your covers pulled neatly up to your chin with no sign of your surly sniper in sight. You pull yourself together, albeit with a frown, throwing on a fresh set of clothes and readying yourself for a day of snarking (a bit spitefully) at Crosshair for leaving without so much as a thank you.
But then you see it. A small mug sitting on your desk: caf.
As you peer over the rim, you’re hard-pressed to mistake it as anything other than your preference made to perfection, and judging by the steam curling fragrant and wispy over its surface, it’s fresh.
Crosshair says nothing when you pass him in the helm, but when you flash him a grin, he huffs and offers you a lopsided smile back.
It takes the lesser part of one week for the headaches to abate. In between then and Crosshair’s begrudgingly clean bill of health, he comes knocking at your door four more times, each time gently loosening the deep roots of tension coiled through his bones more and more.
“You’re getting better at this,” you murmur into his shoulder on the fourth night, your leg thrown over his hip and your arms tucked securely under his. His first night in your quarters had ended in little beyond simply lying shoulder-to-shoulder. The next two had been (failed) attempts to spoon the entirety of Crosshair’s lanky form. And the night penultimate had been a slightly more successful endeavor in throwing all experimental caution to the wind and waking up chest-to-chest in an oddly comfortable tangle of limbs.
That night worked, and so you do it again.
“I had a good teacher,” Crosshair snorts, and he wheezes, his arms curling snug around your middle, when you gently jab him in the side.
You mutter something into his shoulder, but your own words do not reach your ears when you feel his chin settle atop your head. He shifts carefully until he’s curled entirely around you, the anchor in a still sea, a promise that you, together in shared space and breath, simply are. It’s funny how these things work, you think, breathing shallow and slow as Crosshair brushes his nose over the crown of your head and stays.
And then the concussion heals, and he’s gone.
It’s a bit startling how quickly you had grown accustomed to Crosshair’s presence in your bunk within the brief span of a week. You don’t expect to miss it, the easy nighttime habit as Crosshair quietly slinks to your room: a well-rehearsed ritual of playful snark before the gentler art of accommodation, pushing and pulling in tandem to find the sweet stability of your cheek laid over Crosshair’s collar and his palm warm over the small of your back.
You don’t expect to miss it so much that you find yourself lying in bed well past lights out, simply bracing to sling meaningless jokes thrown in the helm the next morning about how Crosshair’s gone soft, little baby brother Crosshair, like the week prior meant little but a favor to a friend.
The telltale knock sets him apart; four rapid, light raps on the durasteel that you’ve come to know so well, and you’re hauling yourself out of bed and slapping the door lock open as fast as you can.
“Cuddles,” Crosshair says as soon as he catches sight of you in the doorway.
He should be fine; he is fine, if Tech is to be believed. So there’s no reason for him to be waking you and requesting entry. But he is here. You stuff down the dizzying stutter in your chest and meet the mirth in his eyes with the best frown you can manage.
For all the stubborn fronting and the cold refusal you could offer him, there’s something you cannot bring yourself to resent when Crosshair—sour, cynical Crosshair—lets the word “cuddle” find home, curled soft over his tongue (lets himself find home in you).
“Will you make me caf in the morning?”
“Depends on how well you cuddle,” he replies, his tone a deadly calm, only betrayed by the knowing gleam in his eye.
“Says the man who didn’t know how to cuddle a few days ago,” you shoot back.
“The apprentice outdoes the master,” Crosshair shakes his head with a wistful sigh, and you laugh, reaching forward to twine your fingers with his, letting him take his rightful place as the doors close behind you.
He comes back home.
Wrecker tells you to give him space, Echo shakes his head when you idle in front of his closed door, and even Omega offers you a sad, apologetic look when Crosshair makes the rare, silent appearance outside of his quarters, a spectre and his bacta patch haunting the ship’s hull before he disappears again.
You listen to them for a few days, but it chews at you from inside—the gnawing thought that Crosshair had been alone for so long, that he’s still alone now. Even if his basest instinct had always been to withdraw and cope in isolation, you can’t stand the idea of leaving him by himself any longer. So when the others have long since fallen asleep, you creep to Crosshair’s room and knock four times in rapid succession.
Like you had expected, he’s awake. But when he opens the door, he keeps his unfocused eyes cast aside.
“Cuddles,” you whisper, testing, hopeful, and you open your arms to him as you stand on the threshold. “Just like we used to?”
Only then does Crosshair flick his weary eyes up, rimmed red with exhaustion, grief overdue. And after four long days, he finally meets your gaze.
You watch as his eyes linger under furrowed brows, peering at you as if he isn’t entirely sure if you’re real, if you’re really there. Watching him waver between your face and your open palms and back again, you imagine Crosshair thinking that it’s always been the other way around: him seeking you out at odd hours to wrap his lean arms around your shoulders, breathe deep, and simply bask in how close you were to his beating heart.
And now it’s you.
“Yeah,” he murmurs, stepping forward between your outstretched arms to gingerly place his chin over your shoulder and settle his lean arms at your waist.
All those times you spent curled, molded around him in the quiet darkness of your bunk—it’s honed you to know him like you know yourself, committing to indelible memory the way he breathes, shifts, fits with you.
And he’s different. A year’s worth of separation would do that, change. But where you feel some new muscle and sinew against your skin, there is undeniable familiarity in how he seeks you out despite the tremble in his hands and unsteadiness of his breath.
There is familiarity in finding home.
You reach up, looping your arms around his neck. And when you pull snug, you feel him squeeze your waist in return, holding tight and holding close.
“Just like we used to.”

Proposing a Duel ~A Narumitsu One-Shot~
Summary: Finally, after years of pining, years of waiting, is Phoenix prepared to propose to the love of his life. But with someone he parallels so intensely, nothing can ever be straightforward.
Tags: Marriage Proposal, Idiots in Love, Fluff, Tooth-Rotting Fluff, Arguing, Childhood Memories, they're so dumb, and bickering 5ever, but they're so incredibly in love your honor, and deserve intense happiness like this, also this is probably set in the aa5-6 timeline somewhere but Who's Counting
Additional Notes: Hello everyone! Finally managed to tackle and finish one of my 20+ Narumitsu drafts lol. I recognize that this is quite the common trope/plot with these two, but I'm of course shooting for a "yay, two cakes" situation! We simply cannot have enough proposal fics, and these two deserve all the happiness/sweetness in the world quite honestly. They're tired- let them REST.
Anyway, super excited to share this with you all, and I hope you enjoy!
You can also read the work on AO3 here [x]
It felt different. He felt different. There was a certain and light sweetness that seemed to be lingering in the air. There was a tender warmth that seemed to be burning between two forms. There was a magnetic tug that seemed to be pulling harder than usual.
Perhaps it was finally pulling towards the inevitable.
Phoenix’s breath caught in his throat at the very consideration. It had been so long after all. The entirety of his life had slowly led up to such a thing. But even still, he doubted his readiness, doubted his ability to proceed.
Though, looking at the man beside him easily dampened such doubts. Fear melted away into giddy nervousness, and worry softened into warm tingles.
Because it was Miles.
Miles.
A man who had evaded him for years. A man who had changed him for the better. A man who had beautifully fought for betterment all for his sake. A man who he’d do anything for.
A man he wanted to marry.
The direct utterance within his mind manifested a flushed smile, his head going woozy with adoration. Inevitable indeed; it felt so right to consider, so...perfect. He of course hoped his proposal would follow suit, that it would declare such deep admiration to the receiver. He wanted it to be just as wonderful as the very man-
“What is it?”
The murmured baritone snapped Phoenix from his honeyed thoughts, startling as he returned to the present.
“Huh?”
Though Miles’ stare remained trained ahead, Phoenix could still pick up on the tenderness that washed over his facial expression.
“You were staring quite intently, darling.”
The term of endearment, the tonality of his boyfriend’s voice, and the ginger facial expression did nothing to help his blush. The defense attorney’s cheeks were fiery, though his growing smile aided in the distribution of heat.
“Is that anything new? I always struggle to take my eyes off you.”
He watched with amusement as color struck Miles’ face to match, his expression crinkling into something of embarrassment.
“Nngh...” he quietly groaned, earning a chuckle from Phoenix before he continued, “Well, at least I’m the one driving then.”
“Thank God for that.”
They ventured back into comfortable silence, but affections were still reciprocated. Miles slipped a hand off the steering wheel and laid it palm-up on the console, an invitation that Phoenix immediately took. He gave his boyfriend’s hand a soft squeeze, contentedly sighing as his thoughts began to wander once more.
Hand holding wouldn’t feel the same for very long after all. There would be an even deeper connection with it, a deeper unity. Soft skin and sturdy fingers would be bordered with precious metal, a glistening reminder of their utmost promise to each other...
“Phoenix.”
The tanner man jerked back to the present once again, though not as harshly as before.
“Yeah?”
“You’re uncharacteristically quiet.”
“Are you saying I’m normally loud, baby?”
The slight rise of his boyfriend’s brow was enough to draw forth a laugh, the deeper implications plenty visible in such a mere gesture.
“More talkative than I, yes,” Miles huffed, though he quickly ventured back towards a more solemn air. “Is something on your mind?”
“Ahh...no.” A lie. And it was very dangerous to offer a lie to the man who sought nothing but the truth in every regard. So Phoenix very quickly covered with a genuine statement, a true explanation indeed. “I just...get lost in how much I love you sometimes.”
Heterochromatic eyes had averted with such a statement, and his other hand had taken purchase upon his neck. The silence that followed however, drew his gaze back towards his partner. But, following the pattern of comfort, any and all apprehension was doused by the prosecutor; the intense blush and bashful furrow on his counterpart’s face triggered giggles.
“Darling...” Miles muttered in disdain.
“It’s true!”
Silver eyes briefly flitted sideways, before the opposing man heaved a large sigh. Years ago, such a statement would likely earn some manner of reluctance or coldness. In the present though, and to Phoenix’s delight, it slowly drew forth a gentle smile once more.
“If I wasn’t speeding down a highway, I would perhaps have to kiss you,” Miles eventually murmured.
“Just perhaps?” Phoenix laughed.
“Mm...”
The prosecutor readjusted their conjoined hands, and better gripped Phoenix’s, gently bringing it to his awaiting mouth.
“Assuredly,” he said, sealing the word with a tender kiss.
It was the defense’s turn to be bashful, flushing and giggling and crumpling in on himself. It was without fail; close to proposing, and yet rendered so useless by his beloved. He doubted that would change, even well into their marriage. It hadn’t for years and years after all.
When Miles lowered their hands back to the console, Phoenix heaved a breath, easing into conversation before thoughts hoisted him away again.
“Where are we going anyway?”
There was an odd pause, coupled with what sounded like a shaky inhalation. The prosecutor did indeed answer, but through vagueness only.
“You’ll see.”
“Are we close? Because I perhaps have to kiss you too.” Just as Miles has done, he brought their hands upward, gripping the prosecutor’s just so and returning the gesture with warm lips. “Hands don’t really cut it.”
“Yes, dear. Shouldn’t be much longer.”
Phoenix grinned, and pressed a plethora of short kisses to the other man’s hand- so much so that he earned a soft whap of disdain to the face. He broke into giggles then and freed the prosecutor from his onslaught, simply opting to sit and wait for their arrival, albeit anxiously. He hoped it was a proper location. He hoped it was someplace fitting. He hoped it would be a date worth turning into something more. He wasn’t sure if he could stand the idea of having to push things back any longer; the ring had already been in his possession for one day too many.
The car finally slowing down brought him from his thoughts, and he blinked as he attempted to process where they were. It didn’t seem to be a fancy restaurant or anything typical of Miles; in fact, it seemed like they were just in some random part of the city. And yet, there seemed to exist an odd sort of...familiarity to it all, a sense of dejavu gnawing on his mind.
Regardless of the swirling thoughts, he snapped to action the moment they stopped. The second Miles parked the car, he was leaning across the center console, following through with his previous statements and tugging them both into a proper kiss. The pair sighed and melted against each other’s mouths, sucking and gliding and caressing.
When Phoenix attempted to slide his tongue betwixt his partner’s lips however, did the prosecutor lean back and break their connection.
“Not so fast, Wright,” he tutted, though his brow was playfully cocked, “Can’t have you sullying this date.”
“Me? You’re the one who’s irresistibly gorgeous.”
Miles rolled his eyes, causing the tanner man to chuckle, before he poised himself to depart the vehicle.
“I rest my case.”
Phoenix continued with his mirth, but had no further objections; no, he didn’t need to sully their date at all. There would be plenty of time for intimacy, but only one chance to present such a momentous inquiry. So he exited after his boyfriend, and walked around the car to be by his side.
Gazes were soft once more upon meeting, and the prosecutor offered a hand for Phoenix to take. He did so happily, and allowed his partner to lead. In doing so however, perplexity joined the mix, his wavy brows furrowing as he continued to try and place...where exactly they were. It wasn’t exactly a park, or a restaurant, or any discernible destination at all. It merely seemed like Miles was leading him down a sidewalk- and was his hand...trembling?
His face scrunched with further confusion, the two of them continuing to wind through buildings. Soon however, buildings opened up to a very particular scene. Rounding a corner stopped him dead in his tracks. Gazing upon the openness before him smacked his brain with a plethora of memories. He saw many a picture, heard swaths of innocent laughter, and felt rushes of old warmth...
“Remember this spot?”
Miles’ murmur managed to reach him, but his composure still swayed. Tears almost pricked his heterochromatic eyes, his nose tickling with the threat of their manifestation. Because yes, he absolutely did. The small canal, the grassy hill, the surrounding quaint homes, the sunset...
It was a scene from their youth. It was a place they had frequented together as grade schoolers. It was a place where dreams had been discussed, and bonds had been formed.
And God, was it perfect for taking said bonds even further.
Phoenix had to keep a hand over his mouth for a few beats, attempting to keep his composure at bay. Breaking down in front of Miles wouldn’t be anything new necessarily, but it would produce suspicion.
Thankfully, the prosecutor didn’t seem to notice- at least, not yet. For he simply snickered and tugged, softly beckoning with their conjoined hands.
“I take that as a yes. Come on then.”
He led them both down the old path, strolling in the golden light of the setting sun. Phoenix could almost see flashes of their grade school selves as they happened along, laughing and shoving and playing. And, through the sparkles in his vision, could he also picture the glistens of precious metal, of gemstones shining with promise and love.
He had to bite his cheek to keep himself in check. When would be the proper time to ask anyway? It felt so close, but so very far. It felt so perfect, but so out of reach. Maybe it would just come to him. Maybe the stars would align. And if Miles’ hand was still oddly trembling, he could no longer tell; his was too.
The prosecutor slowing down pulled him from his running thoughts, but made the situation all the more real. He allowed Miles to lead him into the grass, onto one of the slopes neighboring the sidewalk. Mismatched eyes rapidly blinked to shoo away tears; it was such the perfect parallel. It was such a beautiful nod to their roots.
“Love, I didn’t think you remembered this!” he strained out, beginning to beam immensely, “It was so long ago.”
“Well of course I do. You were the better part of those years after all.”
“Miles...” Phoenix heaved a breath, his smile beginning to rival the light shining upon them. “You’re such a sweetheart, you know that? This was so thoughtful.”
He watched with delight as the opposing man flushed something terrible, his silver eyes averting and his grasp retracting.
“Ngh...” he softly groaned, before dismissively waving a hand and moving to sit, “It’s merely a trip down memory lane, that’s all.”
“Yeah but...” Phoenix couldn’t help but laugh, latching on to some teasing for a bit of emotional respite, “Esteemed Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth sitting in the grass for me?”
Miles seemed to stiffen a bit, coupled with another crawl of red across his visage.
“Is that really such an oddity?”
“A bit, yeah! It’s different than what we normally do.” Phoenix snickered a bit more, before he lowered himself to the ground as well, sitting flush against his partner. The mirth departed his voice then, his tone traveling back towards a more earnest warmth. “So it’s just...It’s really sweet. And meaningful.”
And utterly perfect for what he had planned.
He watched as Miles’ face immensely softened, though silver eyes averted once more. Phoenix took the opportunity to press a quick kiss to the offered cheek, before moving to nestle his head against his boyfriend’s shoulder. He sighed a contented breath upon doing so- particularly when he eventually felt Miles’ head snuggle against his.
Part of him was anxious, what with a brewing proposal swirling around in his depths. But another part hushed him, and told him to simply enjoy the scene for a moment. It was a lovely contrast against their usual life; just getting to take a few moments of calm hush with his beloved, in a place that meant so much to them. The sunlight was warming, his partner’s body was soothing, and the air was enticing.
Mismatched eyes half-lidded, and he hummed amidst the quiet. He wanted it to continue. He wanted to stay in the moment forever. But the other half of him began to cry out for attention. The other half drove him to speak, to drive the peace towards partnership.
“God, Miles...How did we even get here?”
“It’s been a long road, hmm?” the prosecutor murmured after a few beats.
“Yeah. Crazy to think I’m here with you like this. It was always a dream of mine.”
“I concur.”
“So proper,” Phoenix snickered, moving to press another kiss to the opposing man’s cheek.
“Hush,” he huffed. Before Phoenix could nestle back downwards however, Miles turned his head and captured their mouths for a proper kiss. And just as soon as the kiss started was he rising to stand, stoically and handsomely staring out towards the departing sun. He seemed to let out a shaky breath, before he continued in solemn tones. “As children, when I sat with you here, I...couldn’t help but look to the future, and imagine what could be. To think that it’s realized now, and far more than I ever pictured...”
He heaved again, and seemed to look downward at his feet.
“And to think that it could continue...”
Phoenix’s heart leapt into his throat; how was it that Miles was perfectly setting him up? How was it that he was meticulously laying the puzzle pieces out? It was almost like he knew, like he was aware of the ring burning brightly in his pocket.
“Phoenix...”
It was time. Oh God, it was time. It was like some divine forces yanked him upward, piloting him towards the start of a new beginning. He no longer questioned it. He no longer felt apprehensive. He only felt entirely driven to begin.
“-Miles, I adore you,” he blurted, butting in and rambling without much control, “I love you so much. I can’t imagine being with anyone else but you. You’re gorgeous, and amazing, and so important to me, and...”
He could feel his partner’s eyes on him. He could feel the burn of their bodies. He could feel the very question hanging in the air between them. His chest tightened, his eyes watered, and his extremities quivered...Yet he still managed to reach for the life changing box in his pocket, and poised himself to get down on one knee.
“And so I have to do something I’ve thought about since I met-“
“-Hold it!”
The sudden objection from his boyfriend startled him, causing him to crash down upon his knee as opposed to a gentle descent. He winced a bit at the impact, but physical pain was quickly replaced by emotional; Miles looked...appalled. Phoenix felt his chest squeeze immensely, coupled with a croaked utterance of the prosecutor’s name.
“Wh- Miles?”
He watched with further horror as his counterpart backed away, heaving and wringing his fists a plenty. Miles even went so far as to pinch the bridge of his nose with a hand, sighing and straining a cursed sentence.
“I cannot believe this...”
The defense lawyer trembled, the words piercing a crack in his heart. He had been wrong. He had been overzealous. He had pushed Miles too far. He had backed himself into an unlovable corner yet again.
He opened his mouth to speak, to question, to beg for answers, but all that escaped was a quivering breath. Oddly enough, the sound still managed to reach the prosecutor, because he looked back before...miraculously softening?
“-Wait wait, no. Apologies. I...” he said with a raised hand, before pulling it back in and freezing.
They both were silent for several beats then, the air immensely tense and thick. Though Phoenix felt slightly better that his beloved no longer appeared...disgusted, his heart still ached something terrible. He was confused, and downtrodden, watching his boyfriend closely for any further reactions.
React he did; he shifted more into the typical tense nervousness, pulling at his shirt and avoiding eye contact. Numerous deep breaths also heaved from the prosecutor, the exhalations sounding surprisingly shaky. Though it was likely only seconds, the quiet felt like hours, Phoenix clambering for any sign he hadn’t just made the worst mistake of his life.
And it was a wonder he doubted his partner so. It was crazy that his anxiety still got to him. The traumatic scars really did run immensely deep. But regardless, Miles finally provided, looking back and turning the situation around.
“My darling,” he began, his silver eyes interlocking with heterochromatic, “I am...so sorry for startling you. I just...have no idea how we possibly managed...”
With that, the prosecutor reached into his own pocket, and presented something that connected all the glittering puzzle pieces together.
Oh.
Oh.
Every ounce of apprehension washed away. Every bit of discomfort fizzled into nothingness. Every drop of sadness evaporated into thin air. And all was replaced by the most dazzling, incredible warmth Phoenix had ever experienced.
Because it was a box, much like the one he still had in his own hand.
Suddenly, everything made sense. He had brought him out here with identical intentions. He had sweetened his tongue with the same question. He had been preparing to go down the same road, and was startled by the abrupt change in plans.
They had both tried to propose to each other. They had both tried to ask for each other’s hand.
Phoenix wasn’t sure whether to laugh or sob, and subsequently settled for a mixture of both. His free hand clapped over his mouth, and he quivered from tears and mirth alike.
“Miles? Miles?!”
Through the glaze, he could see the prosecutor shaking his head. And over his trembling vocalizations, he could hear the strained quality his boyfriend’s voice had taken.
“Always throwing me for a loop, Wright.”
“Oh my God!” Phoenix laughed, rubbing at his eyes with a hand as he attempted to compose himself. He was overwhelmed, so delightfully overwhelmed. Because two opposing rings meant they were on the exact same page. Two pieces of beautiful metal signaled each other’s answer.
His laugh choked off with more of a sob, and he peered through his fingers to get a look at his boyfriend. Miles had his head turned away, a hand grasping his face once more. Was he crying as well? Or trying not to? Whatever the case, the very consideration sent further tears down the tanner man’s cheeks.
“I...I love you,” he rasped.
“I...” Normally smooth and cool vocals were shaky and taut, the prosecutor clearing his throat before attempting again. “I love you too, dearest.”
The situation beautifully plateaued, the two men taking numerous beats to compose themselves. Neither moved. Neither said anything. Neither made any sort of advance with such a dear connection woven between them.
Phoenix continued wiping his tears and blowing out cleansing breaths. He slowly became aware of the fact that he was still on one knee, still poised to officially pop the question. Though, how was he to go about it? And with an opposing ring in the playing field? He felt inclined to inquire.
“Love?”
He watched as the prosecutor straightened, smoothing out his dress shirt and composing himself something proper. It looked very much like how he recovered in court after a sudden blow, scrambling back from an emotional edge and easing back into stoicism.
“Yes?” he answered after a few beats, though his voice was still thickened.
“What...what do we even do now?!” Phoenix laughed, his free hand traveling to rest upon his neck.
“Well,” Miles began after heaving another cleansing breath, “If we’re getting into technicalities, I’ve had this planned for months.”
The sheen in Phoenix’s eyes flashed with a new spark, the tears glistening with fire. No, not just an opposing ring- a rival ring. It seemed that old habits died hard.
“So? I’m the one on one knee right now! I beat you to it.”
“And? I don’t believe you had any sort of plan regarding this.”
“How can you be so sure?”
“I’m trying to marry you, Phoenix,” Miles said matter-of-factly, tapping his bicep in the normal way, “Ergo, I know you better than perhaps the back of my own hand.”
The tanner man wanted to laugh at the courtroom persona his partner had suddenly adopted, argue with the points being brought to the table, and melt at the fact that Miles Edgeworth wanted to marry him. Unfortunately, he was incapable of anything of the sort; the truth was a little too on the nose.
“Ahh...” was all he sheepishly managed, his free hand grasping his neck harder.
He watched as Miles cocked a brow and gave him a knowing look, furthering the blush that gripped his cheeks.
“Out with it then.”
“Okay...Maybe I was about to start winging it...”
“Mm, as always.”
“But so what?” Phoenix exclaimed, “I’m always ready to get into how much I adore you, and why I couldn’t imagine spending the rest of my life with anyone else, and-“
“-You are not about to advantageously segue, Phoenix Wright.”
The defense attorney burst out laughing, finally standing back up and closing the distance between them.
“Miles!” he comedically whined, giving his boyfriend’s chest a gentle shove, “Dammit, you do know me a little too well.”
“Indeed. Which is why I feel more than apt to be the first one to proceed.”
“No! I was ramping myself up towards a big speech and everything.”
“As was I. I’ve dreamed of this since I was young.”
“And you think I haven’t?!”
The prosecutor’s face devolved into more of his usual scowl, his arms lacing across his chest. It was quite the sight really, what with his eyes still containing wisps of moisture. Still, the strange contrast didn’t cease the pair’s argument.
“We seem to be at quite the impasse then.”
“A bit!” Phoenix snorted.
“Is your stubbornness really going to stop us from getting engaged?”
“Is yours?”
Miles let out a harsh sigh, his annoyance becoming more and more noticeable.
“You’re being ridiculous. Why does it matter who proposes to whom anyway?”
“If it didn’t matter so much, you would have let me go for it!” the tanner man pointed out.
“You’re incredibly obstinate.”
“Haven’t you always admired that?”
“Phoenix,” Miles hissed.
“Besides, so are you!”
“Tell me, do you have a better comeback besides mirroring what I’ve just said?”
“I could always tell you to shut up and let me get on with it.”
“Oh, so romantic and well spoken,” the prosecutor snapped, throwing his hands with exasperation, “Truly makes for the sweetest memories.”
“Says you! You’re the one who started all of this. I could have proposed already!”
It was then that Phoenix’s eyes glinted once more, this time with a spark of mischievous stubbornness. In knowing him so well, Miles appeared to pick up on it, his body twitching and his brow furrowing.
“Don’t you dare-“
The prosecutor’s snarl cut off as they both leapt for the same conclusion. Knees crashed to the ground together, and boxes were hastily grappled for, the two racing for that beautiful spot.
And then something tickled Phoenix once more.
Maybe it was the way the love of his life was kneeling and fuming before him, holding a precious box in such a seething manner. Or maybe it was the way they were both treating their rings as weapons, like they were drawing them for a duel. Or maybe, it was the way they were arguing over a damn proposal.
Regardless, the tanner man was powerless, and began laughing again without much control. The sudden mirth seemed to slap the prosecutor; out of the corner of Phoenix’s eye, he could see his partner stiffen something terrible. It was likely striking even more of a nerve, but he couldn’t help it. It was so...stupidly them, and so amusing as a result.
He bent over from the force of his giggles, instinctively placing a hand on Miles’ bent knee to steady himself. The voice of reason in the very back of his head screamed danger, as an angry prosecutor could easily shove it off. But just as the situation continued to unfold in an odd manner, as did motivations. For Phoenix felt a gentle hand come to rest upon his own, squeezing as opposed to throwing.
“What’s...so funny?” he barely heard his boyfriend ask, his hesitant voice drowned out by the seamless mirth. He had to take numerous beats to sharply inhale, to attempt to get some air, before he could even consider replying.
“...This!” he gasped, wiping building tears with his free hand, “Us!”
To both his surprise and amusement, he heard what sounded like a cheerful huff from the prosecutor. Maybe he was being pulled down into the fun as well? The thought tickled the tanner man even more, and he rode another wave of giggles before fighting for further conversation.
“Miles...Miles...What the hell are we even doing?”
Yes, the prosecutor was definitely laughing now; Phoenix could hear the chuckles blending in so well with his own. It sent him into another fit, made worse by what Miles said next.
“Being...Imbecilic I suppose.”
The pair took a few moments to laugh together then, completely replacing the annoyance in Phoenix’s system with honeyed warmth once more. How typical of them. How beautiful of them. Riding an emotional rollercoaster was something of wonderful normalcy, even in what was supposed to be a special moment. Though, perhaps it actually made the moment all the more meaningful, all the more memorable.
“God! We’re so stupid...We’re so damn stupid...” the defense eventually wheezed, continuing to wipe at his eyes.
“Speak for yourself,” Miles huffed, slowly standing back up and brushing himself off.
“We’re- hey!” Phoenix laughed, erecting to give his boyfriend’s chest yet another push, “You’re an ass.”
“Oh, will the loving talk ever cease?” the prosecutor sighed with a roll of his eyes.
The tanner man continued to giggle, before he stepped even closer, nuzzling his nose tenderly against Miles’. The pair softened immensely, and the defense attorney took advantage by offering yet another kiss.
“I love you so much,” he whispered when their mouths parted.
“I love you too.”
The pair took a few beats of tender silence then, stepping down from the nonsensical energy that had been their argument. It was Miles’ turn to take advantage then; he reached with a hand to brush black hairs back into place before gently framing a damp cheek.
“I do still intend to go through with this, you know,” he murmured, before mildly cocking a brow, “Even though the mood has been thoroughly soiled now.”
“I do too. I-“ Heterochromatic eyes widened slightly, the tanner man starting like he had reached a brilliant conclusion in court. “Hey, actually...”
“Hmm?”
“Hear me out on this, okay? Going back and forth is totally our thing, right? We kinda just proved that.”
A huff and eye roll from the prosecutor drew another shaky laugh from the defense. Still, he continued.
“So what if we...propose together? Back and forth?”
He watched as a strong swath of red spread across his boyfriend’s cheeks, coupled with a furrow of his brow. Silver eyes flitted off to the side as well, a sign he was either flustered or objecting.
“That’s...”
In fearing the latter, Phoenix quickly interjected. “-I know, I know, it’s weird. And not exactly traditional. But it’s...us, you know?”
“I suppose that would indeed solve our problem after all.”
“Okay...”
The tanner man heaved a multitude of cleansing breaths, attempting to pull his composure back to the proper place. But with the element of surprise gone, with two rings in the vicinity, and with the love of his life staring through sparkles of unshed tears...He couldn’t help but shakily laugh, intense emotions swaying all over the place.
“Whew, I...Dammit! I can’t focus now-“
“-Shh,” Miles cut in, suddenly leaning closer and nestling their foreheads together, “Come here then, dearest. I believe we need to...take a moment.”
The defense’s breath caught at the proximity, but he nodded, allowing himself to get ushered away by the man before him. Nestled so close, aggressively ricocheting emotions had no choice but to settle; for there was nothing quite as soothing as snuggling up to his beloved. His mind whited out with the gentle, floral scent of the prosecutor, and the soft warmth his being provided. Though his heart was still pounding, and his eyes were still watering, it did indeed effectively walk him back to a more composed mentality. Perhaps because it reminded him just how much he adored the opposing man, and just how much he wanted to marry him.
“Better?” Miles eventually whispered.
“Yeah...” Phoenix replied, before blowing out a few more cleansing breaths. This was it. This was really it. “Okay. Okay okay...”
He leaned back then, intertwining both stares and fingers. The two shared a look of love, of reverence, of happiness, before stepping fully into the light.
“Phoenix Wright...”
“Miles Edgeworth...”
The tanner man watched as his beloved opened his mouth, but stiffened when no words followed. The tender visage furrowed back into a scowl, but thankfully, Phoenix wasn’t left in apprehension for too long.
“Curses. I had been so ready!”
Phoenix found himself laughing once again; composure was still a beast, it seemed. But somehow, by some damn graces, were words poised on his own tongue. So he gripped his love’s hand a bit tighter, and allowed them to fall.
“Well here- I knew I wanted to marry you from the moment I met you.”
The furrow on Miles’ face didn’t ease- it only turned incredulous. Naturally, Phoenix laughed even harder, and gave the prosecutor’s hand another squeeze.
“I’m serious! Even at nine years old, I could recognize my soulmate.”
Miles seemed to consider the statement, or allow the words to blanket over him. Either way, after a few beats, did he find his stride as well, steering them both towards a more solemn air.
“From the beginning, you enraptured me,” he murmured, silver eyes trained off to the side, “I felt safe around you, happy around you. And there was a deeper sort of calling that I recognized too- something brilliant and pure that I haven’t experienced with anyone else.”
“I think it was so strong and beautiful that I didn’t know what to do with myself,” Phoenix admitted.
“Indeed. It frightened me, and you know this. I denied its call initially. Or perhaps I didn’t deem myself worthy of standing hand in hand with such an incredible, intelligent, wonderful man.”
“Miles...” Phoenix murmured, his voice and face coated with disdain.
“Especially after all I’d done. So, I of course stepped away from that gorgeous light you cast.”
“But I had no intention of losing you. Still don’t.”
The two squeezed hands, before monochrome eyes slowly crept upwards to find mismatched once more.
“Nor I you,” Miles whispered, “When your hand was presented, I could only avoid its reach for so long. There was only so much running before that warmth enveloped me. No longer could I deny the deep and complex feelings you evoked within.”
“I didn’t know how to go about it, you know. Once I had your hand, I didn’t know what to do. I stumbled a bit trying to figure it all out.” Phoenix looked downward at their connection then, a warm, tearful smile overtaking his face. “All I did know was that I was so incredibly in love with you.”
He heard Miles’ breath catch, and subsequently offered a few caresses with his thumb. The prosecutor softly cleared his throat, before he managed to tenderly continue.
“I...knew I was in love with you too. The second you found me, the second you reached me, I could feel it.”
“Yet somehow we danced circles around each other,” Phoenix shakily snickered.
“I just couldn’t comprehend it. I struggled to find mutuality. Because, I of course just wanted to see you happy. I wanted nothing but the best for you. And I wasn’t sure I fit that bill.”
“You did. You do.” Phoenix softly broke their connection for the purpose of framing his partner’s face, tenderly holding and intently staring. “God, Miles, you do. I don’t think I could love someone as much as I love you. Maybe I couldn’t even wrap my head around it either.”
“And we both experienced hardships of course.”
“Yeah. But you were there for me. You took my hand as well. You guided me and made me a stronger, better person. I wouldn’t be who I am today if not for you.”
“I of course can say the same about you. You are...” Miles heaved a shaky breath himself, before reaching to mirror the touch. “...the dearest thing in my life, Phoenix. You are my light, my guidance, my foundation, and my truth. You are so incredibly important to me, and I love you more than I ever deemed possible.”
Phoenix had heard his partner speak soft sentiments before. He had experienced the deeper, more vulnerable side of the prosecutor a handful of times. But whispered in a spot from their childhood, proclaimed as they sought to strengthen their bond...
It amplified his tears tenfold, his bottom lip wobbling as awed cascades poured forth.
“I...M-Miles...Dammit...” he croaked, leading to a playful eye roll from his partner.
“Mm, so eloquent,” Miles softly huffed.
“Shh! I...” Phoenix hesitated, overwhelmed and overflowing with adoration. He felt there wasn’t much to say to top what had just been murmured- and he also knew he dangerously close to falling apart. Consequently, he softly tugged his partner closer, and locked them in a tender kiss. He couldn’t help but whimper against the prosecutor’s lips, but he hoped to instill every bit of honeyed warmth he could manage- at least until he could properly vocalize.
“You’re my home, my warmth, my dream, my everything,” he eventually murmured, his mouth ghosting against his partner’s, “I love you more than humanely possible. You make me so so happy. There is no one else I’d rather spend the rest of my life with. So you’re kinda...stuck with me forever.”
“I would have it no other way. You have me, always.”
“Always. I’m yours.”
The two men stared at each other for numerous beats, glassy eyes peering deeply into each other’s souls. Tears ran down Phoenix’s cheeks, whereas Miles remained unshed and unbroken. But regardless, the intense emotion was palpable, the next step dangling right there for both to grab.
“So then...” Miles whispered.
“So then...” Phoenix quietly returned.
In mirroring each other, in being on the same plane, the two simultaneously lowered to one knee, far slower and less chaotic than the previous time. Instead, it was purposeful, devout, the pair entirely interlocked as they continued. They both presented their respective boxes once more, and shakily prepared for the final step.
“Phoenix Wright?”
“Miles Edgeworth?”
“Would...would you do me the extraordinary honor...and privilege...” Miles started.
“...of becoming my husband?” Phoenix finished.
It was then that he opened his box, with Miles following closely behind. And again, did he come incredibly close to breaking. Again, did he nearly lose hold on reality.
Because of course he and Miles continued to parallel. Of course they both ran with the same idea: The ring the prosecutor was presenting glistened with blue, just as the ring he presented glistened with red. They were gifting each other’s aesthetics. They deeply recognized each other, nodded to each other, and such an element would likely switch the next time they gifted rings.
The next time they gifted rings...
“I’ve waited so long to marry you, Miles...” Phoenix managed to gasp.
“I’ve pictured no one else...”
Phoenix was barely breathing, barely thinking. But still, did the words roll off his tongue, like they had been poised to do for eternity.
“So...yes.”
The preciousness finally broke the nigh impenetrable glass, a single tear rolling down the prosecutor’s cheek as he returned the deepest sentiment.
“Yes.”
Phoenix choked out a pitiful sob, and couldn’t help but tug them both upwards, his mouth finding Miles’ the second they were standing. And it was a wonder how their kiss almost immediately felt different, tasted different. It was sweeter, purer, and more profound. It was like their lips connected in a way they hadn’t before. It was something gorgeous, something new.
Perhaps it was because they were engaged. They were engaged.
Miles Edgeworth was his fiancé.
Another heaving sob from the defense attorney forced the kiss apart, and he opted to simply bury himself against Miles’ neck, beaming and crying all the while. He snuggled as close as he could possibly manage, and relished in the feeling of hands embracing him tightly. There, he attempted to compose himself, but naturally, the opposing man didn’t make things easy.
“Pull yourself together, Wright,” Miles softly jested, his voice thick with moisture, “You’re yanking me down with you.”
“I c-can’t,” he half-laughed half-sobbed.
“Mm...Perhaps I should take advantage and christen your finger with a ring first then...”
Sobs leant more towards laughter then, the defense attorney tightly hugging the prosecutor before leaning back in the embrace.
“N-nice try! We’re still doing this together.”
“We need both hands, silly,” Miles huffed before cocking an amused brow at his partner, “Though, judging by our differing composure, I relinquish my previous statement and deem it appropriate that you go first. Before you collapse on me, that is.”
“God, I love you...” Phoenix laughed, “And yeah, no promises...”
They both snickered, before turning their attention downward. Eyeing the two rings almost choked Phoenix up something terrible, but he managed to hang on by a mere thread. He focused on the band he intended to gift, the essence of his partner, fixating on completing the beautiful tradition. With a hand, he removed the precious ring from its box. And then shakily, softly, reverently, did he grab Miles’ hand with one of his own, and slip the band onto his finger with the other.
He shivered at the sight, at the ring finally resting in its proper place. But he barely had time to process before Miles began to mirror, slipping the opposing ring onto his tanner finger in return.
And then red truly danced with blue. Blue completely intertwined with red. Two colors dazzled and sparkled beside each other- just as they had for years, and would continue to do so for the rest of their days.
Phoenix could do nothing but stare for what seemed like an eternity, his trance only broken by Miles bringing their hands upward. Once more did he press soft kisses to Phoenix’s fingers, the weight of which was far greater now. The defense had no choice but to articulate.
“I’m...I’m going to marry you.”
Phoenix let out another round of gasping breaths, and was sure his smile was going to split his cheeks as he uttered the dreamlike phrase once more.
“Oh my God...I’m going to...marry you, Miles...We’re engaged.”
“We are...” the prosecutor quietly reaffirmed.
Shivering laughs trembled both bodies, before Phoenix gently pried his hands free. He immediately reached to frame Miles’ face, and the new glisten to his finger forced further cascades down his cheeks.
“We did it...” he laughed.
And the expression that had washed over his fiancé’s face was like nothing he had ever seen. It seemed to carry a level of adoration he didn’t even know existed. It seemed to be comprised of more warmth than that of the sun on the horizon. It seemed to be an expression entirely reserved for him.
All of which told Phoenix that he had, in fact, made the best decision of his life. Though, the following murmured word from his beloved hammered it in, cemented them fully on the unified plane.
“Finally...”

Meanwhile while we’re all waiting for Eda’s Requiem, here’s a few Raeda stuff I got out of incorrect quotes generator: Let me show you a few gems.
Raine: Lol heads up if you try to make a candle with food coloring, the food coloring will just sink to the bottom of the glass, and when the flame eventually reaches the bottom all the food coloring will catch fire and become one giant tall flame that you cannot possibly blow out and the glass will start to crack and then you'll throw your tea on it in a panic and then the extremely hot food coloring will boil and sizzle horribly and then the glass will shatter. Please take my word on this lmfao Eda: What did you do op? Raine: A MISTAKE
Raine, pointing: May I sit there? Eda: That's my lap Raine: That doesn't answer my question, Eda.

Raine: Eda was banned from the chicken shack, so we had to go out of town to get some. Eda: Well, they shouldn’t say “all you can eat” if they don’t mean it. Raine: Eda, you ate a chair.
Raine, struggling to keep upright in their 1 inch heels: Yeah, I-I don’t really think heels are for me Eda, pointing at them and walking flawlessly in sparkly golden 6 inch heels: WEAK.
Raine: Remember when you didn't try to solve all your problems with attempted murder? Eda: Stop romanticizing the past.
Eda: *Stubs their toe* FUCK! Raine: Mind your language! Eda: What else am I supposed to say, “Woe is I”??? Raine: Eda: You have to accept that swear words are necessary sometimes.

Raine: Can you please be serious for five minutes? Eda: My record is four, but I think I can do it.
Raine: You know, I'm starting to regret showing you how that blender works. Eda, drinking toast: Why do you say that?
Help me I’m having too much fun with this
Also these three bonus quotes:
Luz: In my defense, I was left unsupervised. Raine: Wasn't Eda with you? Eda: In my defense, I was also left unsupervised.
Eda: Here’s a fun Christmas idea. We hang mistletoe, but instead of kissing, you have to FIGHT whoever else is under it. Raine: Eda no. Luz: Mistlefoe. Raine: Please stop encouraging them.

o( ❛ᴗ❛ )o I think I need me so sleepy time fluffy morning Baku sex. I've been corrupting myself too much lately LOL. Thirst post or drabble I guess? "Hey, you awake?" "Do you have any idea what you do to me?" "Don't cum yet."
Tumblr media
PAIRING: Bakugou Katsuki x Fem!Reader RATINGS: M/E+ WARNINGS: smut WORD COUNT: 1.9k+
request from THIS prompt list - prompt fill sentences will look like this.
“Hey, you awake?”
You groan, stuffing your head beneath your pillow. It isn’t enough that he has the audacity to wake up before the sun rises, but for him to bother you until your eyes are peeled open? You smack your lips together, a disgruntled sound raking against your throat as you close your eyes again.
His palm is warm as it travels down the length of your abdomen, as if his scarred hands are prodding at every one of your ribs to count them in the early morning light, “I know you’re awake, c’mere.”
“Go back to bed,” you murmur into the sheets, but it holds no intent because you’re doing as he says, swiveling your body to tuck into his chest. Bakugou’s arms slink underneath your sleep shirt, a shirt he recognizes as his own, fingerprints mapping out the dips and curves of your back and shoulders. You hear him groan into the crown of your hair and you smirk, your eyes lazily drawing their way up to look into his crimson orbs, “Can’t sleep?”
On cue, Bakugou’s hips rut forward, and you feel his very prevalent boner press into your thigh. Your thigh muscles tighten at the sensation, the half-asleep haze still fogging up your brain so you can only think in partial thoughts.
His nose nuzzles your forehead, nudging against the creases until your skin softens, smoothing beneath his kisses. He grunts when you roll your hips forward, a teasing cant of your waistline making his blunt fingernails bite into your skin. A low growl rumbles in his chest, making its way up his throat until every cell in his body is vibrating with anticipation.
“Do you have any idea what you do to me?” he murmurs into your tresses, voice dropped an octave when you hitch your thigh up over the top of his to get closer. Bakugou’s voice is still rough with sleep, all jagged edges and coarse tones as his mouth begins to wander, mumbling little aborted sentences into your skin, “Such a fuckin’ filthy tease in your sleep, babe. You feel that?”
He’s of course referring to the throbbing cock he’s currently sporting, pressed flush between your thighs and his. Bakugou licks the pad of his tongue over the length of your neck, tracing your jugular with his teeth. A fresh wave of arousal slickens the skin of your thighs, pre-come leaking from his tip to mix with your wetness.
“S’too early,” your murmuring against his collarbones, lazy, sloppy kisses pressed into his hot flesh.
Bakugou has always been a human heater – you suppose it’s just a side effect of his quirk. His body naturally runs hotter so he can kickstart his explosion quirk whenever he needs to. The stinging sensation of his palms as he tries to tame his power is not lost on you as his hands roam your body, pulling and dragging at you to keep you close and feel your frame.
He traipses a hand between your bodies, fingertips running down your abdomen until he reaches the spasming outer walls of your cunt, “Hah,” he is brash in his laughter, “you’re fuckin’ soaked, Princess. You really gonna tell me it’s too early?”
“Shuddup and fuck me,” you murmur into his neck, lavishing the skin with your teeth and tongue. Bakugou moans at the action, his eyelids slipping closed and his eyes rolling back in his head. You reach a hand up his neck to palm at his undercut until you get to a thatch of hair that you can hold onto, grasping at it desperately so you can bring him back down to kiss your mouth.
Bakugou is quick to roll himself over so he’s loitering above you, a shadow cast down on your body thanks to the beginning rays of the sunrise filtering in through your partially open blinds. He nudges his nose against the bridge of your face, tracing the outlines of your cheek bones while your hands busy themselves with his torso. You cannot get enough of his body, toned and yet somehow supple at the same time. Your fingers knead into the plush flesh of his ass, and he tilts his head so he can kiss you.
The head of his cock butterflies your pussy so he can collect the silvery strands of slick that have gathered between your lips. You moan into the cavity of his mouth, his teeth biting down on your tongue when he gets the chance, “Fuck, baby,” his voice is low as he sucks on the muscle, rutting his hips forward out of pure primal need.
“I love you,” you murmur into the void, playing with he blonde strands of hair that you can reach. Your other hand is rested between the planes of his shoulders, palming at the muscles that ripple as he moves.
Bakugou kisses your bottom lip, leaning back to admire your features, “I love you too.”
He accentuates the sentence by slowly dredging his cock forward, coating himself in your arousal at an agonizing pace that leaves you wanting more but somehow unable to beg for it. You adore him in these moments – when he is wanton enough to devour you whole, but uses his ever astounding self-restraint to savor your every sound. Bakugou is handsy when he’s just woken up, fingerprints searching for something to memorize, as if his very anatomy was pieced together to mesh with yours. He knows you like he knows himself, inside and out, and it only serves to better moments like this.
“Fuck, you’re so tight,” he’s almost whining, his voice thick as he does so. You find yourself sifting your fingers through his hair before your palm settles on his cheek, guiding his eyesight to your face so he can look down at you from where he’s hovering.
You swear you hear a gentle whimper when he makes eye contact with you, but you don’t press him about it, instead enjoying the view you have from beneath him. His hair shines like gold in the warm sunlight, his eyes are glittering rubies as his gaze bores into you, as if you might have all the secrets to the questions of the universe. You tilt your chin and kiss him on the mouth, tenderly and slow, and he matches your pace with the stuttering of his hips.
A moan passes between you, the origin of it unclear given that you now can’t tell where you end and he begins. You are a mess of tangled limbs and sounds, your arms and legs wound around his body as he fucks into you slowly. The bed creaks underneath your weight, but it only adds to the cacophony of sounds all intermingling together to form the melody of your morning.
“Damn, Princess,” Bakugou drops his mouth to your neck, softly sucking at a few different patches of skin. Hard enough to elicit a reaction in the way of your cunt clenching around his cock, but not hard enough that he might leave a mark that you’ll have to cover.
Bakugou works you to the precipice of pleasure, your climax fast approaching as the ministrations of his hips do not falter. You can feel his cock twitching from withing your walls and you clamp down to hold him steady, winding your hands in his hair as you hold him close, “N-No, don’t cum yet.”
He makes a strangled sound in the back of his throat, his hips bucking up into you in defiance, but it is only second nature for him. Bakugou kisses your jawline before murmuring in your ear, “I don’t know how you expect me to last much longer with this fucking perfect pussy of yours, all sloppy and wet around my cock.”
You shiver at his lewd words, your spine bolstering with confidence as he litters praise down on you like confetti. You tilt your head so your cheek is pressed into his, beckoning him forward with the gentle tug of your hand in his hair, “I-I wanna look at you when you cum.”
Bakugou is immediately upright, pulling his hips away from you so only the tip of him is submerged within your core, hot and throbbing with the imminence of his release. You feel him tensing up his body to try and force himself to look down at you, every nerve beneath his skin practically shattering at the sight of you so blissed-out and at his mercy.
His thumb brushes over the apple of your cheek and you feel like there has never been a more ethereal moment than this one. The soft smell of sweets cooking over a campfire fills your nostrils, a familiar taste in the air that you’ve come to know after many years of being with Bakugou Katsuki. Your chest brushes his as you inhale deeply, committing the moment to memory, commiserating it with the slight flare of your nostrils.
The sight of him so close to the crest of his release makes your thighs tense, but you want to savor this moment. These few seconds between when everything is calm and then the coil finally snaps, washing white-hot pleasure through your entire being. You press your palms to his cheeks, his still hazy eyes trying desperately to find a part of you to focus on.
A quiet curse falls from his lips before he sheathes his cock within you again, bottoming out on the first stroke. You can tell by the strain of his neck that he wants to lower his head, but he fights every instinct in his body and keeps his eyes focused on you, those vermillion irises ever present as you both begin to climb toward your release.
“Please, Katsuki,” you lick your lips and beg for him, clenching your thighs until they’re quivering, “cum in me, I want to feel you cum in me.”
Bakugou’s eyes are steely as he looks down at you, “Here you go, baby,” he murmurs into the void of your bedroom, the words airy and light as they drift from his lips to your ears.
Your heels dig into the plush of his backside, anchoring him to you as you feel the familiar heat of his spend coating your core. You moan in tandem with him, milking him with your glutinous walls trapping his cock inside. His tip is pressed hotly against your cervix, and you swear you can feel him in your spine, but that does nothing but stir your body into passion, brought even closer to the end when his thumb finds your clit.
“C’mon, Princess,” he mutters as he leans down to kiss you quickly on the mouth, “I want you to come for me, yeah? Come on my cock.”
That is all the encouragement your body needs, your arousal meeting his as you cry out, throwing your head forward to press against his collarbone. You sob at the feel of your body tensing up from head to toe, your orgasm shattering the world around you until all you can fathom is Katsuki.
Bakugou hums once you’ve fallen slack, nudging his nose along your cheek, “Where’s my girl?”
Your head falls back to the pillow and your hands find their familiar place in his ashen blonde locks, “Right here.”
As if there were anywhere else you’d rather be.

i love your art and how versatile your styles are - do you have advice for experimenting with art style? like i know that to find ur own style its best to experiement a lot and develop it constantly, but where do you find motivation for that? did u fond inspiration from other artists? do you have a drawing routine? are there specific drawing exrecises that help/helped you?
sorry for so many questions, i love ur art and have a great day!
Thank you! It always makes me grin stupidly when people comment on my art with words like “versatile” because I do try to have a lot of fun with it! And it’s no trouble at all! I’m always playing with my style.
Getting the style I have now currently that I use most took work- I looked at my style and tried to change things deliberately until I was happy. I experimented with eye shape and face shape, body shapes and such until I was happy. That took a lot of study and work because I wanted the anatomy to look decent:
Tumblr media
The other styles (because I play so much....) don’t all look that different, only mildly. The cute one I just did for that comic I approached in regards to shapes. I kind of have this idea that I want a character to be a shape or word- so for Patton I chose “circle” and so I made most of his features round in some way. Not full circle but soft~ Logan was “square” so he looks a little boxy but I wanted him approachable so I softened his angles a liiittle bit. The twins were “tall bold” so they have a lot of sharp or elegant lines. Virgil was “droopy” and so he sort of just... droops. Puffy jacket, longer lines for the hair, and curved legs so he looks tired. Janus was “refined/put together” so most of his lines are pristine. All sharp and clean in most of his clothes but curved hat and hands to make him a little more snekky curvy if that makes sense. Note that their eye shape also reflects their shapes a little too. Virgil’s eyes are tired and droopy and Logan;s are quite squared compared to Remus whose eyes are taller because it makes him look more awake (too much coffee lol).
Tumblr media
The Poisoning Pigeons animatic was interesting because I am really slow at doing animatics but this one was based on something comedic so I literally sat down and went.... ok, what’s the fastest way I can draw these characters while maintaining their basics? And I was thinking about how @aimasup​’s style is REALLY fun and captures the sides in a unique way. What I like about it is the clean shapes so I thought, how can I do something a little similar but also REALLY FAST because I’m super distracted and get bored easily? I come up with stuff like this, wherein I drew the characters’ most basic silhouettes/defining features faster and faster until I reached a point where they were super quick to draw and still recognizable (Note that I always seem to draw their hair the same lol I can’t help it I gotta max the floof): 
Tumblr media
Read more below for Starcrossed stuff cause this post is already getting long. XD
And then there’s Starcrossed. This one is interesting because I went through a lot of style possibilities with these through development. I tried my regular style but that took too long even when not really coloured which is why I didn’t do many of these. I was in school and had no time for it.
Tumblr media
 I tried a cleaner style but that took even longer with the colours. It’s beautiful but just not possible.
Tumblr media
Then I tried this one but it was not round enough/exaggerated enough for the cutesie feeling I wanted. If I was gonna go for cute it better be CUTE but also it had to be uniform- if you are having your characters all together they ought to look appropriately like they all come from the same 2d plane of existence if that makes sense lol so this was just not gonna cut it: 
Tumblr media
Finally I landed on specific shapes and a style that complemented each other and settled with some rules: Anvity would always have sharper features because he is a Dragon so horns, ears, wings and eyes all had to match that; Moxie cannot have any sharp edges except for the points of her eyelashes, Viran would look inquisitive but approachably soft etc. so his glasses can never be fully square or rectangular:
Tumblr media
Vircei would always look a little bit weirdly elongated regardless of how tiny he is because he is a monster and quite spider-like at times so his hyperflexibility needed to be shown in his elongated limbs:
Tumblr media
Anyways, I’d say a good way to practice is DEFINITELY looking at other people’s art to get inspiration. How to they make their shapes and thinking about why it works for them. I recommend googling “Character Design” and browsing the images there or searching character design here on tumblr. You’ll find a lot of them definitely play with shape which I think is incredibly important! 
As for motivation, I dunno I just really like drawing so I have a lot of fun playing with style!

I think this is the final rant? Thought dump?? For now
I wanted to think abt wing types😔 some ideas for what type of wings they might have
Active Soaring Wings (long narrow wings, made for soaring over water ie gulls): Easily Tetra! They're on the great sea after all, this one is simple! Wings like these only really fly well when the wind is favourable, so shed probably have to stay on her boat most of the time- but Wind controlling the wind currents with his wind waker to help Tetra fly, my beloved
Passive Soaring Wings (Long broad wings, made for soaring high in the air and have fast take off speed ie eagles): Id say Dusk, Artemis and Lullaby. These wings are pretty typical for predator bird/birds of prey, so out of all of them these wings are the most intimidating which works for Arty! Shes the princess of a war, bird of prey wings are sufficiently scary for her. Plus sometimes you see the Trope of characters using their wings as a shield, I feel like out of all the wings these are the only ones thick and big enough to actually be used like that. For Dusk I picked this because the way she sorta circles you in the puppet Zelda fight reminds me of birds of prey/Vultures. Imagine Twi being circled by puppet Zelda with her big wings, I would be veryyy intimidated. For Lullaby, I feel like passive soaring wings just feel more confident. Instead of flapping to keep up right, your just soaring! I also like the idea that she only flys really high in the air where no one really notices her so she can be free to just be herself by herself, before coming back down and having to be either Sheik (Downfall,Adult) or the perfectly well mannered Queen (child). Also one of the birds of prey are seen as good omens in the down fall era because the Goddess Hero has said kind of Wings (Like to think that Sheik is a cultural icon in the Downfall era like Time is in the Adult era)
High-Speed wings (Medium long and narrow wings, built for long sustained speed ie Falcons): Sun, Dawn, and Flora. Sun is already cannoncally super fast, always ahead of Link and Ghirahim. So she gets the Zoomy wings. She can fly faster than Ghirahim can teleport and it drives him crazy. Bonus when she shoves Sky off Skyloft, she has to go get them, but her wings arnt stong wings like Dusk/Artys/Lullaby so she just has to lay there for a while after pushing herself too far (mirroring her loftwing in game). Her wings are easier to use in the stiller wings of the surface, compared to the harsh winds of Skyloft- one of the reason she likes the surface more. For Flora, I like the idea that after Wild died, Flora flew around powerfully quickly to the Calamity after returning the Master sword. Like the botw speed run stasis launch but shes just like that. Also it would be funny for her to fly faster than Link can ride a horse. She leaves him in the dust as soon as shes out of the castle. The Rito in botw must really like Flora bc they're constantly talking about how Wild doesn't have wings. Flora who dive bombed the Calamity with all her strength means the world to me. Dawn's is more practical. If non of their wings look the same im just assuming that like Hylia picks which wings they get based on their personality/environment. Wings built for fast sustained flight would be amazing for the Downfall era, to always be too fast for anything to catch you. Too bad she still gets kidnapped tho, she must of been yanked outta the sky when trying to escape. I could see Dawn being the fastest flier before getting kidnapped and her bonding with Leggy over not having the most presentable Wings. I love Dawn so much. I feel like shes 100% embarrassed of her wings and prefers to keep them hidden, but seeing Legend struggle with his would cause a mom friend override. She will talk about them, but only to help others
Elliptical Wings (short broad wings, made for short bursts of high speed tightly controlled flight and fast take offs ie sparrows): These are the wings require a lot of flapping for normal flight. Out of all of them I feel like they have the highest skill ceiling. Like to be able to quickly dart between trees seems hard, and if you arnt darting youd be flapping constantly instead of Soaring. I feel like these would be good for Leggy and Fable! Legend needing to flap constantly to stay in the area, but when he finally figures it out he can move faster than Flora/Dawn/Sun and maneuver better than them at higher speeds too- but its hard. I feel like that fits with the Legend learing how to accept/use his wings plot line. Its hard but theyre super cool after he figures it out. For Fable, ive always seen her as high enegry and excitable. Flappy wings that allow her to maneuver easily just sorta vibe with that. Esp if shes just a natural at it. These wings are made for avoiding predators. Whats a better wing type for a Hero who gets in so many fights, and has so many enemies.
Hovering wings (humming bird wings, used for tightly controlled hovering, very small compared to body, can fly backwards): Dot. Minish cap Zelda having tiny wings is my only thought process for this I am sorry unu
For Aurora being flightless: Aurora was said to live in a golden era before she was cursed. She probably never needed to fly before, she lived in luxury and could just lounge around. A lot of flightless birds uses their wings for displays. So i like to think her wings are very very very very pretty, yet almost useless. (Dawn is a little jelly bc her wings have always been drab looking. Aurora thinks Dawn's wings look warm and comforting.)
Bonus: Hyrule has wings in his fairy form! He can also fly. Hyrule trying to teach leggy how to fly my beloved- I like to think he has little dragon fly wings.
(AH!! an Angst pass!!! Ohohohohoh Dawn and Aurora come hereeee- might draw my ideas of thoes two if it doesn't step on ur toes lol. Two princesses that cannot fly, what heartfelt conversations full of feelings will they have!!)
HYRULE TEACHING LEGEND HOW TO SLY MY BELOVED
C-can I use that? Would that be? I need that now can I put that in?
Bro Anon this is some FANTASTIC STUFF. Ease excuse me while I just....*drops pen and paper from trying to jot it all down.
Dusk with big vulture wings ooooooo.
Yo hmu if you wanna help me hash out designs because O_O

Marko - NSFW Headcanons
Masterlist
Tumblr media
Pairing: Marko x Reader
Word Count: 800
Notes: Look at you, getting two fics in one day! I’ve literally had this sitting in my drafts half-finished for like three weeks now, so I figured I’d finish it up and release it since you guys have been so patient with me this past week! (And I have a ton of free time to write now…)
I’ve never been very good with NSFW writing in general–story-heavy writing and fluff are more my niches–but a headcanon list is easier to write than a full-on smut scene, so I figured I’d give it a go; plus I wanted to write something just for Marko. 🥺❤️
Warnings: NSFW! (duh lol)
Literally the king of foreplay; like seriously this boy cannot get enough of it.
Marko is a huge tease, so foreplay is an absolute must before sex with him. Likes to see how many times he can get you off before he’s ready to go, and he enjoys looking into your eyes whenever you cum.
He’ll literally keep track of his “record” of how many times he’s gotten you off before sex, and tries to break it every time you two are together.
Occasionally gets so caught up in beating said record because he’s a competitive little shit he’ll start to overstimulate you before you’ve even started having sex and you have to beg him to just fuck you already.
He loves going down on you. Like more than any of the other boys Marko is always the first with his head between your legs.
Likes receiving oral of course but not as much as he likes giving. Definitely isn’t complaining when you want to go down on him though.
He loves it when you run your hands through his curls while he eats you out. In general just loves it when you have your hands in his hair during sex.
He likes to draw things out; enjoying watching your face as you writhe around, searching for release. He holds out until he’s sufficiently satisfied his need to tease you.
Putting aside his other reasons, Marko is just genuinely a soft boy, and hates the idea that sex might not be enjoyable for you, or worse that it might hurt you, so even when he is in the mood to just jump straight in he never skimps on the foreplay because he wants to make sure you’re enjoying yourself and that you’re ready for him when he finally does get down to business.
Marko has a lot of energy, and there’s no place he’d rather use it than in bed. So once he’s gotten started, he doesn’t stop.
Likes to move you around a lot; you’re switching positions often.
He’s grabbing anything he can get his hands on, and kisses any bit of bare skin his mouth can reach. What the means varies depending on what position you’re in at that moment, but the boy gets handsy during sex.
His pace is fast; again, he’s got a lot of energy and he’s willing to use it.
Will continue to joke around and tease you while you’re having sex. There is no off switch. Sex with Marko is fun, and a serious workout. It’s also amazing.
Sometimes it’s frustrating just how much he teases you, but if he ever takes things too far he makes up for it by how good he makes you feel.
If you’re still human, he’ll 100% be into drinking from you while you’re doing it. He thinks it’s incredibly hot. He would never do it without permission of course, but if you’re willing he’ll sometimes lean in and take a bite from your neck while the two of you are still going at it.
Aftercare is a big thing for him.
Again, he wants you to be as comfortable as possible. He’ll help clean you up as best as he can; grabbing his discarded shirt or using the sheet if he can’t find anything else.
He loves to cuddle with you afterwards, planting little kisses on your neck and face. This is about the only time he won’t be teasing you. Typically he just wants to be sweet; telling you he loves you and praising you.
If he can he’ll spend the night with you; just laying together, talking and joking, enjoying each other’s company.
If you did it at your place he’ll stay even after you’ve fallen asleep, holding you in his arms until it gets too early and he has no choice but to leave before the sun comes up.
If you’re staying in the cave, he’ll spend the night with you, his face snuggled into your hair so he can smell your scent while he sleeps.
If you wake up together you are 100% having sex again. He’s a teenage boy; morning wood is a thing and he’s had your body next to him all night.
Morning sex is usually more lazy and relaxed; you’re both still groggy from sleeping and like to take things slow.
Though it doesn’t take him too long to wake up once you get started, so if he doesn’t finish fast he’ll soon pick up the pace on you and you’ll be left trying to keep up with him again.
Really likes getting a morning drink from you, if you’ll let him.
Again, big on aftercare, and will snuggle in bed with you all morning until you start getting hungry or the other boys (Paul) get annoyed waiting for you two to get up and come to bug you.

Hey there! So I said I was half tempted to post some mk fanfics, so i did *nervous jazz hands*
Basically just some subscorp, fluff with very little plot, basically Hanzo has a restless night and decides to drop by the Lin Kuei temple for some comfort in his lover, Kuai Liang. Also includes Hanzo feeding Kuai, because Kuai is such a workaholoic that when he has time to eat he forgets to. I’m a sucker for lovers taking care of each other 🥺😭 like literally the file name for this fic was “oops all fluff” lmao
Oh, and a few puns because back when I rped as Kuai, I had this whole thing going on where he makes more puns than he should be allowed to and i got too attached to it as a hc lol
well hope y’all enjoy cuz all i want is some gotdamn happy subscorp
Tumblr media
     Kuai Liang took a deep sigh as he laid back in the snow. Far past midnight, many of the students fast asleep, but not the Grandmaster himself. No, instead he was laying in the snow, bare of any clothes save for his briefs. His clothes were neatly folded in a pile by him as he laid, now closing his eyes. The thoughts were vanishing, nothing but emptiness in his mind. It was a new form of meditation he had picked up, becoming one with the snow. It was always when the ice began to coat his body as he let go of himself and his grip on the world that he knew he had succeeded in his meditation session.
     Sometime into his meditation, he heard in the distance the sounds of snow crunching. Someone was approaching. He opened his eyes and sat up to prepare himself for a potential visitor. But when he looked around, he saw nobody, only the footsteps. Perhaps just a student wondering, looking for something to do to tire themselves out. He laid back down, then closed his eyes after a few thoughtful blinks. And there they were again, the footsteps, snow crunching and packing under the weight of somebody approaching near. Next he heard the slow scraping of metal, and that was when he rolled over and stood up to face his visitor.
    “Your hearing hasn’t failed you quite yet,” Hanzo teased as he sheathed his katana. He was without his armor, just casual clothes as it was late, but he still carried his weapons on him, just in case. “But still, that was too close.”
    Kuai smiled sweetly as he faced Hanzo. “Hearing is one of the most important senses. These ears will never fail me. But I felt my timing was amusingly dramatic no?” The cryomancer stepped forward to Hanzo, arms open. Of course Hanzo opened his arms and they united in a tight hug, cold and warmth meeting, fulfilling the temperatures each other craved. “It is wonderful to see you again, Hanzo. But why are you here? It is quite late.”
    “I was having another restless night, I wanted to see you...” Hanzo let go of Kuai just slightly, just enough to see his face while still holding him. “Why were you laying in the snow? Is your cryomancy not enough to keep you cool?”
    “I was meditating.” Kuai answered. "You are free to try it with me, if you're interested."
     Hanzo looked down at the snow, then back up at Kuai. "I worry I may melt the snow."
     "You are quite hot, you make even me melt." Kuai winked at him, causing Hanzo to blush lightly.
     "Is that another pun of yours?"
     Kuai had an awful cheeky smile. "Perhaps.” The cryomancer let go of Hanzo to retrieve his clothes he left on the ground and began to at least put on the pants. Sweat pants, just to emphasize it was the Grandmaster’s leisurely hours.
     “You can still meditate if you please,” Hanzo offered.
    “And what would the fun be in having to pretend you’re not here with me? I would much rather spend time with you.” Kuai took a hold of Hanzo’s hand, once again the cold meeting hot, and out in the snow it caused a subtle steam from their strong hands holding each other. Then Kuai gently pulled Hanzo guiding him towards the doors. “Come inside with me, I will prepare you some tea.”
    “Perhaps I can make you some food, too.”
    “You needn’t, Hanzo. Not if it is making you go out of your way.”
    “I want to feed you, my snowflake. I know you forget to eat sometimes when you get so caught up between work and your own personal time.”
    “A fair point.”
    “When was the last time you had eaten?” Although it sounded like Hanzo was scolding Kuai, he really wasn’t. He wasn’t mad at all with Kuai, it was just his worry for Kuai’s well being coming out in how he naturally expresses it.
    “Lunch time, about… 6 hours ago.”
    “Do you not feel hungry?”
    “I suppose I do now that you mention it. I suppose I can’t ever say no to your cooking, I do enjoy it.”
    “Good,” Hanzo huffed.
    Inside the temple was much warmer, something the Grandmaster always made sure of every night for his students. While he was a cryomancer himself, and he understood some of his students were also cryomancers, there were plenty that were not. The nightfall’s cold would be far too bothersome if they tried to endure it in their sleep, and a warrior without proper rest is a vulnerable one. It was even warm enough for Hanzo to notice, giving him a cozy vibe, which he didn’t mind at all given he tends to like it warmer… Except for when holding Kuai.
    Kuai took Hanzo around to the temple’s large kitchen, and let go of his hand just to begin preparing to boil the water for their tea. In the meanwhile, Hanzo looked around at the options of foods to work with for him and his lover. Something meaty, of course, since there were tons of meat stored and ready for cooking. Much of the Lin Kuei’s diet consisted of meat, it was easiest to obtain, as animals were more abundant than anything agricultural. What they did have besides meat was always received by the Special Forces to help them maintain at least some semblance of a balanced diet. Very nice of them.
    “What do you plan on making, Hanzo?” Kuai asked.
    “I am thinking of kushiyaki. It should be quick enough to prepare,” Hanzo answered as he began to pull some meat, labeled ‘game’, out of the fridge.
    Kuai loved hearing Hanzo’s Japanese. He could literally just be listing various foods in their Japanese names and Kuai would be head over heels for his lover’s mother tongue. “What is kushiyaki, dear?”
    “Kushiyaki is like the yakitori, except that it can include non-poultry meats on it. Usually it is only meat on it, but I suppose some vegetables would benefit us.” It probably didn’t count as kushiyaki then, rather than a regular grilled kebab.
    “Would you like some help preparing the meat?” Kuai asked, already drawing a knife from a drawer. “I can hardly cook, but I am quite skilled in cutting.”
    Hanzo nodded. “I would appreciate that.”
    And together they chopped the meat into cubes and rectangles. They cut off enough for five skewers, part of Hanzo’s plan. Of course, this was unnoticed by Kuai Liang until Hanzo had already flavoured and spiced them and began to put them on the skewers. “Hanzo, we may have to make another one to even the amount.”
    “No, my love. I am only going to have one, maybe two. I want you to eat the rest so you are eating enough.”
    “Hanzo,” Kuai muttered as he felt the love and care from his love. “Are you sure?”
    “I am.” Hanzo set down some bell peppers and carrots on the counter in front of Kuai’s cutting board. “Now please, help me chop the vegetables. You seem to have quite an abundance of peppers.”
    Kuai took a few peppers, and with a new knife began to cut them. “General Blade warned us the harvest would be plentiful that shipment.”
    “You do know if you ever need produce, I can supply you with some, right? My temple has a garden with plenty of vegetables.”
    “Indeed, but I do not want to take from your supply for ours.”
    “Our clans are allies, Kuai. We must help each other.”
    “I cannot disagree with that, but I do want you to take care of your clan.”
    “Just as I take care of you?” Hanzo teased as he leaned in to kiss Kuai’s cheek, then continued on to set up the grilling process of their food.
    “I have no idea what you are talking about.” Despite how deadpan his tone was, he was very clearly joking. “But of yourself, what made you so restless tonight?”
    Hanzo closed his eyes for a moment and sighed deeply. “Nightmares, I suppose.”
    Kuai frowned with deep sorrow for Hanzo. “I am sorry to hear that.” He knew that they both suffered deeply from trauma, from all the fighting, protecting Earthrealm, their past feud, their own hardships through life and death as revenant and wraith, and their losses through time. They really had gone through it all, and then some. Nightmares were just a side effect of the trauma, one they both suffered from, sometimes together. “Did you need to talk about it?”
    Hanzo thought about talking about it, but shook his head. “Not this time, thank you.”
    “Very well then.” Kuai gave Hanzo a tight hug from behind and sighed. “Regardless, I am always happy to be here to help you, and I am glad you have come over here for comfort. I will always welcome you here, my love.”
    “Thank you, my snowflake…” Hanzo did straighten himself from his vulnerable position, and instead began to help Kuai put the meat and vegetables onto the skewers so they could grill them.
    “I almost dare to ask if you can cook those yourself, but alas you had already set up the grill.”
    “You seem to have an affinity for my hellfires cooking your food.”
    Kuai smiled. “It leaves a taste of love.”
    “You are a sap.” But of course, it was one of the traits Hanzo loved about Kuai.
    As their food cooked, the tea had successfully boiled. Kuai began to place the chamomile tea bags in, to turn it into tea. That was when a horrible pun came to mind. “Hanzo, how do you make holy water?”
    “I would not know.”
    “You boil the hell out of it.” That cheeky smirk again that showed the self-proclaimed pun-master was proud of another crack of a joke. Of course, it was always adorable, the way Kuai actually thought these puns were humorous.
    Typically Hanzo didn’t like puns, they were cheesy and cheap, but Kuai was the only person allowed to make puns. He shook his head with a small touch of a smile. “You are adorable, Kuai.”
    “I take pride in being the only one allowed to make puns around you.”
    “Good. Though I still would not have thought of you to be the one to make such jokes.”
    “Cage may have had a slight influence.” Kuai Liang gently touched along Hanzo’s forearm with his cold finger tips. “It’s easy to make puns when you’re as cool as I am.”
    Hanzo huffed a small snicker. “You are certainly cooler than Johnny Cage, I will give you that. ”
    “How generous of you, Hanzo.”
    “I can say plenty more nice things about you, my dear snowflake.”
    “And I, about you.” While the chamomile tea was finishing boiling into the water, Kuai grabbed a lemon from the fridge to chop it in half. A strong squeeze poured lemon juice right out of the lemon and into the tea kettle where it boiled into the tea, then back into the fridge it went when it was no longer of use. Next was the honey, which he had to retrieve from a jar within the pantry. As he set the jar down, he looked over at Hanzo. “You know,” Already Hnazo knew a pun was about to come, it was that damn set up. “I’m not sure if honey is needed in this, since you’re already ‘sweet’ enough.”
     Okay, that pun may have got Hanzo blushing lightly again. “Yes… Well… Not as sweet as you.” Oh Hanzo, bashful at sweet praises, just as he had been with his wife a very long time ago. He tried to carry on, returning to the task at hand. He took the skewers off the grill and set them down onto a plate. With the tea finishing just in time, Kuai poured them both a cup, and the settled at one of the kitchen’s islands to consume.
    Together they ate and drank their teas, discussing their lives and what they had been up to. Kuai had plenty of new stories about his dragons, and the ghosts he’d been noticing at the temple. Hanzo spoke of his students, the gardens’ new blooms, and a new training regiment he had started. But what they both had in common was missing each other. Kuai could fly over on his dragon any time, Hanzo could hellport any time, but alas it was about their scheduling. They missed each other deeply, they missed each other’s quips, touches, shared pain and healing and comfort, each other’s languages of love. All of it. They were both Grandmasters of their own clans just wanting to forget about the world to be with each other.
     Which eventually led Hanzo and Kuai in front of the door of the Grandmaster's bedroom. Initially it had just been to walk him there, and Hanzo had planned on leaving to return to his own temple, but Kuai pulled Hanzo in as he entered his room. "You should stay the night here, Hanzo. I think the both of us could use a night together."
     "I should return to my temple, I do not want to be leaving my students without word of where I am."
     "My dear, they know of our love, and they know you have slept here before. They will take the hint in the morning when you return."
     "I suppose. I just worry if something is going to happen while I am gone."
     Now Kuai realized what Hanzo's nightmares were about, what caused his restlessness. He was having nightmares of losing his clan once again. He was having those traumatic memories of losing them before. Kuai Liang sighed. "I will not force you to stay here or there. But I promise you, they will be okay. I understand your fears, as a Grandmaster myself. When I leave, I get worried my clan will be attacked and slain. We worry because we care, and we care for them as deeply as we should be. But alongside care, we must provide them with trust. We must be able to trust that they can fight for themselves and protect each other, should they be attacked. I know your students will be safe, because they have been taught by the greatest warrior I have ever fought in my whole life. Nobody compares to you, Hanzo.” Hanzo reflected on Kuai’s words. Funny, he felt the same way, that Kuai was his toughest opponent, so surely the Lin Kuei must be great, too. “And as well, Hanzo, I’m unsure if you noticed but one of my students is at your temple for the night. We’re not the only ones visiting each other. Should anything go wrong, I’m more than certain she’d come home to alert us.”
     “I was unaware of your student staying at my temple. That does help to know, I suppose... But you are correct in your words, I need to give them trust that they can protect themselves.” Hanzo looked at Kuai’s large bed, noticing one more blanket on the bed than before, and a rather thick one, too. A significant difference that warmed his heart. It meant Kuai was seeking warmth in his sleep, attempting to reach the same warmth of the pyromancer. “It seems I should sleep with you tonight anyway,” He noted as he lifted the blanket.
     “I find myself sleeping better with a bit of warmth, it reminds me of you,” Kuai confessed as he sat down on his own bed.
     “I find myself needing at least a fan on when I sleep,” Hanzo also confessed. “The cold grounds me when I start to get too nervous.”
     “We truly do complete each other.”
     Hanzo began to start taking off his own clothes, as well as leaving behind his weapons all onto a neat pile on the floor close to the bed, so Hanzo may retrieve them in the morning. Then he got in bed with Kuai, and as he got comfortable Kuai was already holding him, admiring the natural warmth of Hanzo rather than the blanket.
     “Do you feel well enough to sleep again, Hanzo?” Kauai asked.
     Hanzo nodded. “I think I do.”
     “Good, I’m glad.” Kauai closed his eyes with a sigh, and started to feel himself drift to sleep. “Sleep well, Hanzo. Wake me up if you need anything, I won’t mind.”
     “And I hope you sleep well, too.” Hanzo hesitantly closed his own eyes. And together, in each other’s arms, in each other’s elements, they both fell asleep together.

weeee thanks for the tag @lamonnaie!! :D
1- how many books are too many books in a series?
ehh definitely depends on the story, and how they're divvied up. but probably 8. i dont have enough space on my bookshelf or emotional investment for more than that.
2- what do you think about cliffhangers?
depends on if i have access to the next book immediately or not :D also it has to be done well, not just for dumb shock value.
3- hardback or paperback?
both have advantages for me. hardcover aesthetically and for travelling with a physical book (i am very particular about keeping my books in pristine condition), but paperback is usually a nicer/easier reading experience. i will say tho, if i have a series i do want them to all be either paperback or hardcover, that's where i really draw a firm line.
4- least favourite book?
christ uhhh, heart of darkness maybe? or ship it, crossed, zenith, love letters to the dead...i've loved more books than not, but the ones i don't like i really don't fucking like (don't get me started lmaooo).
5- Love Triangle, yes or no?
absolutely not, get that shit away from me unless they all end up poly and happy together.
6- the most recent book you just couldn’t finish
probably kings, queens, and in-betweens by tanya boteju. a problematic and massive disappointment of a book.
7- book you are currently reading
rereading six of crows and still working on chanel miller's memoir (it's been over a year since i started it, but due to the intensity of the subject matter i'm taking my time so i don't trigger myself lol)
8- last book you recommended to someone
i have genuinely no idea because i'm always reccing books, but maybe jonny appleseed by joshua whitehead as i made a post on my insta about it.
9- oldest book you read
probably heart of darkness? i think? hard to tell for books.
10- the most recent book you read ?
i'm making my way through the grishaverse again, and to catch up with the nikolai duology, so that would be ruin and rising! tho the most recent non-grisha book was one last stop by casey mcquiston :)
11- favourite author?
hmm maybe victoria schwab? or alice oseman or adam silvera or rick riordan or angie thomas...i cannot choose, i am too aquarius for this question!!
12- buying books or borrowing books?
both! i'm a book collector so i love to own physical books, but libraries are the coolest places on the planet so i'm all for both.
12- a book you dislike that everyone else seems to love
looking for alaska. i simply do not get the hype. maybe because i read it as a really young teen but even then, that's the target audience so...
14 - bookmarks or dogears?
bookmarks!!
15- The book you can always reread?
clap when you land by elizabeth acevedo, history is all you left me by adam silvera, any of the percy jackson books, good omens...i have a lot of comfort books lol
16- can you read while listening to music?
yes! i find it helps me focus more when reading too, which sounds really backwards but making playlists to fit the mood/listening to my fave songs helps create a comforting background noise that gets me in the zone (works for writing too!)
17- one POV or multi POV?
totally depends on the story.
18- do you read book in one sitting or in multiple days?
once again, depends on the book. some books just fucking drag, or i have to space out for self-care. but i'm a very fast reader, and can read most books in a day, when given the time to. i was known in elementary and high school for being the bitch who read 600+ page books in a day lmfao
19- who to tag:
if you see this and wanna do it, consider yourself tagged! and tagged folks, feel free to do this if yall want! @kermit-the-femme @capriciouscrab @throwing-roses-into-the-abyss @alittledizzy @omgthisisnotmyrealaccount

putting together an incredibly optimistic lineup of poses I want to make for the sequence of Lake and Lucio fucking... (Though I admit it’s tempting to make it generic ‘ych’ stuff entirely because I do not want to draw all the details on his prosthetic. If everything is totally drawn out and for some reason he just has a golden hand is if I start trying I’ll spend 4 days making accurate arms for all frames and then I will hate the project and never finish it so his hand is just gold because I’m absolutely garbage at mechanisms. also I would have to deal with the details of ‘would it be more than the regular level of painful if he stuck his thumb up Lake’s ass?’ which I don’t want to. all things considered I should make it some super fuckable anime girl and use ych as a raffle but I want to draw Lake in a bunch of sex positions. other plans for Gawain as well but I gotta check some things. right now I cannot muster the energy to try and focus on drawing so I’m playing ‘collect references until I don’t feel like chewing off my own fingers’ right now.
if I did ych stuff do you think anyone would be interested in buying a slot? I’ve made some decent steps lately in art improvement so I think someone might be interested. idk gotta get some finished projects before I get too ahead of myself.... So many ideas and no time or motivation. the choose your own adventure idea I had was gonna be like do the Lake sequence as a series of audience choices like ‘ass or pussy’ ‘fast or slow’ ‘inside or outside’ kinda business and have the pov figure do the voted action but I don’t think enough people would vote.... But it’s a decent plan for a future game if I get my interaction back up (I know I’ve been distant lately. I’ve been so damn tired lol. and I keep losing too much time trying to catch up on tumblr, so I’m letting a lot of things go, but as a result I miss a bunch lol. feel free to send an ask or message if you wanna ask me something. I have a discord I can share with people but right now I’m not feeling like engaging in active conversation. might chat about smutty ship picture ideas? if you have thoughts please feel free to share them, I am not sure what I’ll get done but if nothing else I can start putting together reference pictures and make a collage monster like I did yesterday lol.
also anyone have a podcast rec that’s fast paced and entertaining enough that I don’t phase it out while I look for stuff but does have enough of a backlog that I can listen for a while without having to take a break and look for something new? bonus points for some kind of horror or mystery element? I haven’t been able to get into something enough to play it as my side media while I work and somehow that has seriously hindered my ability to work. =/ adhd problems? anyway I’ve listened to the magnus archive so not that one.

What’s the most expensive thing you own? My snake, I think. Or my laptop, idr. Are you more of a book person or a TV person? Book. Relationship status? Single. What color are most of your clothes? Black. Did you french kiss before you were 16? No, I was 16. Last song you listened to? "The Heretic Anthem" by Slipknot. Would you ever go back to any of your past relationships? Yes. What’s your favorite thing about life? That's a big question. I guess seeing acts of mass love and kindness, reminders that we're all in this together through all hardships. Who pays for the first date? Whoever asked the other person out, imo. Who has always been there for you? My mom. Have you ever written on a wall? No, at least not to my memory. Do you play any computer games, if so, what ones? I think anyone who reads these by now knows, haha. I don't much play anything else. I prefer console games. What would you name a baby boy if you had one? Probably Damien or Victor. What would you name a baby girl if you had one? Alessandra, no questions asked. What lyric means the most to you? I mean there's tons, but the first one that came to mind is "for such a little thing, you sure are in your own way" from "Get Up" by Mother Mother. Like in the big picture, we humans are so so so minuscule, but with brains that are too complicated for our own good. It's my own head that creates so many obstacles for me. Who is the smartest person you know? Probably my friend Girt. Have your parents ever been to jail? No. Do you share a bed with anyone? My cat, haha. Does it flatter you when guys open doors for you? It's flattering if anyone does, not just guys. Do you enjoy taking naps? Yeah. That's like part of my daily routine. If your friend asked you to hold their drugs, would you? Nope. Is there anyone you try to be a good influence for? My nieces and nephew, but I don't feel like I am. I'm a poor example of an adult. Do you own a pair of fishnets? No, but I have a pair of fingerless fishnet gloves. Which do you prefer: french toast, bagels, pancakes, waffles, bacon or cereal? All are great, but french toast. Yes or no: eyebrow piercings? I'd actually have one if I didn't have glasses. I think I'd look weird with one as I look now. When I say "The Beatles," what is the first song that comes to mind? "Hey, Jude." In your opinion, what is the very worst type of weather? Extremely hot and humid. You can only listen to one band for the rest of your life, who do you pick? Ozzy Osbourne, of course. Can you snap with both of your hands? Yeah, but it's harder with my left. What is something that you had to learn the hard way? For some people, promises don't mean shit. If you could re-paint your bedroom, what color would you paint it? Maybe like a light peach. When was the last time you got butterflies? I think not since Sara told me I look really pretty in eyeliner. ;_; <3 When was the last time you felt like your heart was actually breaking? There was this one time I was listening to "The Ghost of You" by MCR a while after finding out about Jason's mom's death and I just like... broke. When’s the last time you were in a line? When I was getting my second COVID shot. Do you trust the media? HA! Fuck no. If you could kill off one species of animal, which would it be? At first I was appalled by this question, but like... do wasps serve a purpose? Of all fauna, they annoy me the most. I mean bees are already endangered enough, and they prey on them. They don't pollinate, so like... why are you here. I may be mistaken and they have a valuable role, in which case I take all this back. Who’d you last say I love you to? My mom. What’s the most overpaid job in your opinion? I have on idea. Most jobs are underpaid. What’s the last thing you wrote down? I was doing some paperwork at the TMS office on my first day there. When’s the last time you heard a gunshot? I don’t know. What are you looking forward to? Now that my tattoo (which looks fucking stunning, by the way) is out of the way, I can focus on other things. I'm particularly looking forward to hopefully seeing the results of TMS manifest (which should take 3-4 weeks). It sounds horrible, but I'm also keenly awaiting this dog we're stuck with to go somewhere... The person who gave her to my sister to give my mom won't take the dog back, and we can't find another option that doesn't risk her being euthanized, which we absolutely do not want. We just don't know what to do, but she's driving Mom and me INSANE. Do you listen to online radio stations? No. Have you ever done something sexual that you regret? No. Have you ever said anything to the last person you kissed that you regret? Multiple things. Have you ever ate so much you puked? Ugh, no. That sounds awful. Do you care about what others think of your physical appearance? Very much, sadly. Would you rather eat cookies or brownies? I gotta say brownies. Which YouTuber have you learned the most from? I mean, this depends on the subject. From Mark, I've learned most about life and how (I think) to be a good person, but there's a lot of pet channels I watch that have taught me loads about proper husbandry. This answer just depends on what knowledge you're talkin' about. Who would you want to be the flower girl at your wedding? Probably a niece. Do you want to be married within the next ten years? It'd be nice. Do you feel like your life is too fast-paced, or do you wish it were busier? Ugh, I wish it was busier. My days are a COMPLETE, routine drag. What are some hobbies which you want to pick up? I want to just be more artsy. I wanna draw and write more, and I'd love love love to be in healthy enough shape to handle going on walks with my camera. There are sometimes I miss editing videos, too. I'm unsure about completely new hobbies. Does anyone encourage you to go after your dreams? My family and a few friends. Oh, and definitely my psychiatrist. What group are you most active in on Facebook? None, really. I mostly just observe. Are you ashamed of anything? A number of things. Primarily not having a job at my age or even being in school. What were your favorite Disney rides as a kid? I loved Splash Mountain, I think it was called. What were your favorite rides at Cedar Point? Never been. What are some places you want to visit that you’ve never been? South Africa, Alaska, Canada, Yellowstone National Park, Bahamas, Venice, Rome... What are some places that you’ve been that you’d like to go to again? Disney World, Chicago, and this one super clear lake I swam in once a few hours away that I don't recall the name of. Have you ever owned a succulent? No. While they're pretty, I've never been much of a plant person. Do you support small businesses? I REALLY want to start doing that more when I have the option to buy my own stuff/have my own income. As someone who wants to be a freelance photographer, I get it. Starting an independent business is hard as hell. If a brand were to sponsor you, which brand(s) would you prefer? Uhhh I dunno. Have you read the entire Bible? No. Do you make bucket lists for each season? No. That does sound kinda fun, though. How old were you when you first dyed your hair? I have no idea. Do you dye your hair regularly? No. :/ I desperately want to, though. It's just not something we can afford to spare cash on. What is the most comfortable type of pants, in your opinion? Pajama pants? haha Do you think you could ever be famous? No. I'm way too boring and don't want to be anyway. What are some jobs you’ve had in the past? Sales associate, cashier, and deli worker. None lasted long whatsoever. What are some jobs you want to or would like to have? List five. FIVE? I don't know. I just know I want to be a photographer. Well, being an artist or poet would be very cool. And a reptile breeder, maybe tarantulas, too, but that makes me kinda nervous with JUST how many babies they have. What are some jobs you have considered? In rough order from youth to now: paleontologist, vet, movie director, game designer, author/poet, artist, music video editor, wildlife biologist, photographer... Maybe there's more that just aren't coming to me. Are you thankful for social media, or do you wish it didn’t exist? Depends on the day for me, but I'm generally thankful for it so I can keep up with the lives of people who are important to me. It's just that it's a breeding ground for self-doubt and rampant comparisons that can easily depress me when I see some people are "further ahead" and more "established" than me. What are some of the best medications you’ve ever had? The combined efforts of Latuda and Lamictal saved my life. What was a video you watched over and over as a kid? There were lots of movies, like The Lion King, a certain Barney one when I was very young, and I watched Finding Nemo like crazy. Do you know a lot of people who were loving, and then turned cold? Jason????????????????? Is that you??????????????????????????????????????????? Do you own anything plaid? Ha, what a coincidence, I'm wearing my red plaid pj pants. Are you good at remembering names? Definitely not. Have the cops ever gotten on to you for anything before? No. What email thingy do you use? (yahoo, gmail, rock) ... Rock? lol anyway my main is Hotmail, but I inevitably have a gmail to have a YouTube account. What game system(s) do you own? PS2, Wii, Nintendo DS Lite, and a GameBoy Advance. Are you any good at Guitar Hero? I used to be; I played most songs on Expert, then some really tough ones on Hard. I was soooooo addicted to those games. I remember when I got the first one for Christmas, I literally played it all day. Have you ever played Call of Duty? Nah, not my jam. What is your favorite/most visited website? YouTube. Is your bed comfortable? Sure. I've definitely had way worse. Do you have a garage? No. Fun fact, I've never lived in a house with one. Should you be doing anything right now? What? There's a number of things I could be doing that are definitely more productive, like finishing decorating my damn room. Do doctors or dentists make you more nervous? Not really. I only ever get nervous to hear my weight at the doctor's. Did you ever think you were about to die before? I don't quite know. When I ODed, it was more like I didn't care if I did. Have you ever really had a near death experience? Was it cool? "Was it cool." Literally fuck off. I guess you could technically consider my OD a "near death experience," especially given how many pills I took, yet I somehow experienced almost no ill symptoms. Maybe because we got to the ER for fluids quickly enough, idk. I'm just glad I didn't die. What is your favorite kind of weather? Snowy! Like a steady snowfall of large flakes with no breeze and total silence. *chef's kiss* Ever tasted beer? Ugh, no. Just the smell makes me sick. It was my dad's drink of choice when he was an alcoholic so I just have a very negative association with it. Have you ever seen a dead body? Yes, at an open-casket wake. Ever poured salt on a slug? As kids, my sisters and I would get our parents to do it because they grossed us out. So, so cruel. I still have this weird but pretty extreme phobia of them, but I wouldn't torture the things like that.

{Special} College!AU Shinwon
*this post was commissioned | find all my college aus here | commission info
major: media management 
minor: rhetoric 
sports: brags about how his long legs are perfect for volleyball, but screamed bloody murder when hongseok spiked the ball in his direction once so you could say,,,,,,,,shinwon’s not a sports person
clubs: drama club (less for the acting, more for the strutting), public speaking, and of course - it’s not a club per say - but the fashion department always loops him into helping them out as an impromptu model
shinwon,,,,,,,,,,really didn’t think he’d even end up going to college,,,,,,,,,,,,,
really he was sort of set on debuting as a model and working it out from there 
but after a while, waiting around for work just got boring
so he left the agency he’d signed up with when he was still in highschool and applied to college
much to everyone's collective shock, his parents, sister, and himself included
hui: im so proud he took this step, you know shinwon is bright and im sure he’ll use his brain for good.
shinwon: exactly! 
shinwon five seconds later: actually i just realized i have to do homework again and i think im going to drop out?
hongseok: i knew it
shinwon’s reputation is all over the place - he’s kind of known as being messy, beautiful beyond comprehension sure,,,,,
but he’s messy messy
from his dorm room 
cluttered with magazines he’s been featured in, his guitar stands, vinyls which no one understands why he buys like this is the twenty-first century ......, and clothing strewn from the lampshade
to his dating history 
pretty sure he’s had a hook up with someone from every department available on campus like pre-meds, literature, music, hell even someone in egyptology was smitten by his good looks
and of course ,,,,, his personality 
from playing childish tricks on tired masters student jinho, to owning the student held fashion shows with impeccable grace and posture
yuto affectionately refers to shinwon as a rubix cube made of spikes, flowers, and a little bit of hot sauce
shinwon thinks it’s such a compliment, he tries to lean over and grab yuto in for a kiss 
(which is refused with an almost punch to the face)
he’s definitely a force on campus and is famous for different reasons with different people
but if there’s one thing shinwon has learned from life it’s that he really cannot stand to give two shits about what people say about him behind his back
not like he’s going to hear it anyway
and he’s blunt to the point where it’s sometimes too much and hongseok on occasion (many occasions) has had to just pick shinwon’s six foot tall body up
and carry him out - as shinwon continues to spew well-deserving facts at whoever it is that tried to start with him
(or any of his friends. someone once made an offhanded comment about yeoone who is way too nice to say anything and shinwon just stopped in and turned on his gucci boots heel to be like “come again?”)
loves when cute shy freshmen get all nervous around him like 
“oh my god, he looks like a marble statue! wasn’t he on that one magazine? he’s so pretty~ he must be so cool~”
shinwon: basking in it
hongseok: trying so hard not to tell them about how shinwon is nothing close to cool
has the worst diet imaginable - lives on fast food
and he does NOT work out which adds more confusion
pre-meds will be like “hey,,,,,,so,,,,,,,,,do you have like ibs or something? or is your stomach literally made of iron?”
and shinwon just slaps his scrawny tummy and is like “i don’t know man, but this machine runs smoothly!”
more clothes than he knows what to do with - likes brand names, but cannot afford them unless he has gigs - says he doesnt but totally owns a cheap tracksuit that he lazes around in during campus holidays
backpack covered in old rock band pins
always steals his classmate's pencils
notes stained with coffee 
binders unorganized, lost his textbook at a nightclub 
really again - does not look like he belongs in college LOL
does media management because it still keeps him in the loop of fashion, but without all the actual drawing and sewing
because no one trusts him near a sewing machine or fabric scissors
the rhetoric minor was a big surprise - but shinwon just goes
“i get grades for talking good”
jinho, twitching: “talking well. you can’t say “talking good”
shinwon: “talking sexy ;) hahaha”
jinho: ill kill him
he is an enigma with a shit-eating grin ,,,,,,, 
but he’s also hot. and has perfect proportions,,,,,,,,,,
you,,,,,,,are a fashion major,,,,,,,,who knows the legends about ko shinwon
about how he’s nothing but fire to play with 
that being said
you are absolutely, utterly, one hundred percent, totally infatuated with him
he’s been your muse since you first stepped into the fashion building and saw him making his way down the hall
half of someones finished project still pinned to his shoulders, messy orange hair pulled up with bobby pins and that smile
almost,,,,,, angelically,,,,,, twisted? 
you had no idea how to describe it - but you had remembered him and even though you knew no one else's name yet 
he was the person you could visualize in an instance
you’d learned his name at your first student held fashion show, where to your dismay he had already been picked by someone else to be their model 
and they’d skipped past calling out for him 
“shinwon~”
you repeated it again on your lips in a small whisper “shinwon”
it was unique, it was different, and you really really started liking it
everything about him was unique, different, and you can guess,,,,,,,,you were really starting to like him
not like you would ever act on it though
shinwon seemed untouchable, not because he was standoffish - actually he seemed like he’d be super easy to get along with
it was because he was just,,,,,,,,he was just so ,,,,,,, unusual 
and you wouldn’t consider yourself a shining star, you were like everyone else
waking up, doing your schoolwork, trying your best to breakthrough in fashion 
you had a small group of friends - you had your regular hangout spots - your favorite kind of coffee flavor
you were simple, you would say, and shinwon was not
that’s why he gave you so much inspiration
if you were one speck in the galaxy, he was like a whole milkyway 
you had started off just admiring from afar, but as time went back you started sketching too
at first it was what you could conjure from your memories of him
the flashes of him around the fashion department, when you saw him in the library, the orange hair - the sparkling oak brown eyes - the over-the-top outfit he pulled off effortlessly
and when you think you’d filled up half of your sketchbook with stills of him
you started to envision him in your designs
actually, you had lied, you were a simple person
but your mind was not - you might have stuck to simple tones and patterns in your wardrobe 
but when it came to clothes you made, you were vibrant and loud and risky
some of your professors had initially mixed up your work, thinking your submitted designs were someone elses
because well ,,,,,,,,,,,,, they just didn’t match
your designs were for someone,,,,,,,,,,,,,,someone like shinwon
bursting with confidence, immune to shame, always ready for a thrill
your goal had quickly went from being able to saying hi to him in the hallway 
to one day having him wear an original creation of yours
but getting shinwon as your model was a feat
either he wasn’t doing the show at all, or he was everyone elses number one pick
with long, lithe limbs and an almost wonderland like face
that is ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, until the final project for the semester came up
you were expecting it all to go as usual
the older fashion majors would get first dibs on their models - someone would pick shinwon (if he was even showing up)
and you’d only have to go back to drawing him with your designs rather than seeing them come to life
but to your almost painstakingly obvious shock
that was not the case
shinwon did volunteer to model for the final project - but,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,no one was picking him
actually - everyone was actively avoiding him
and when your turn came around you couldn’t believe you were finally getting to say it
“i’ll pick ko shinwon.”
suddenly there was a swarm of muffled whispers - you couldn’t hear anything clearly but as shinwon strode over to you 
he gave you a once over and winked - and the was enough to make your entire body flare up
after everyone got settled with their models, you were shaking with anticipation as shinwon slipped into the seat across from you 
“are you cold or am i just so handsome you can’t help shivering?”
he jokes, running a hand through his hair for added effect
“y-yes”
you answer, stupidly unsure of what else to say
he lets out a laugh, leaning over to pat the top of your head which once again sends you into a blank
“cute, so - let’s see what you’ll be dressing me up in huh?”
he leans over and you flounder as you flip to the page with the outfit you’ve chosen to create for your final
it’s inspired by 80s punk and glam - rhinestones, spikes, rainbows 
shinwon’s eyes light up when he sees it and he looks at you with a giant smile
“where have you been all my life - this is totally my style!”
i know,,,,,i made it thinking about you,,,,,,,,,,,
is what you want to say - but you just stutter over your words instead
“o-oh, im glad you like it,,,”
he nudges at your elbow and you think electricity rides up your spine
“can’t wait to wear it! by the way-”
he moves his body, gracefully around the table so he’s standing beside you now
it makes everything else melt away as he leans in closer to your face with his own
“don’t listen to what people say about me - and trust me, ok?”
it’s,,,, cryptic - and in the moment you had no clue what he was talking about - but he’s your muse
and he’s inches too close to you 
so really - it goes over your head as you nod with moonstruck stars in your eyes
shinwon says his goodbyes and tells you to text him when you want to do measurements
you only realize after he’s gone that,,,,,,,,,,you don’t have his number 
so you approach an upperclassmen who usually works with him and politely ask if she might have it
she stops what she’s doing and sighs
“you really picked shinwon for your final project - you’re crazy!”
you look around - not sure if she’s really talking to you - until she huffs
“this is the final - you can’t rely on someone like him!”
someone like him?
“wh-why not, he’s done other shows?”
she shakes her head
“other shows aren’t the final project. he might just not show up on the day or he might get the clothes dirty. he’s fun when there are no consequences but you know this is worth fifty percent of our grade right?”
you’re left sort of speechless and she just mutters that she pities you as she scribbles down the number in your sketchbook and hands it back to you
you turn and realize other students are eyeing you from their station
a lot of them are already doing measurements on their models, while yours 
well shinwon just left
you hadn’t stopped him - he just said he had to go
you feel something twist in your stomach but you ignore it
he had said it right - not to listen, and to trust him
the first couple of weeks go by,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, perfectly
you finally suck it up after typing and deleting a text to shinwon about measurements
spending nearly half a day trying to come up with a casual and cool way of asking 
and all you get in response is a misspelled “yeha” from him when you make a date and time
you think it’s goofy and cute
and shinwon does show up 
charming, joking, making you embarrassed and happy all in the same breath as you take his measurements
wiggling his eyebrows when you ask him to take his shirt off for the chest measurement 
excitedly rambling about this underground show he’s seeing on the weekend 
mind you - you and him haven’t ever had a conversation before this
shinwon just naturally opens up - having no problem doing the talking as you either 1) stare at him like a puppy or 2) nod enthusiastically in agreement to whatever he’s saying
you’re pretty sure he can tell how much you admire him and with anyone else you’d be dead from the shyness
but with him it’s like,,,,,,,,,it’s like he’s a celebrity to you 
so it’s not that bad to be so so so enamored 
his flirting doesn’t come off as anything romantic either, just part of his persona
and despite those doubts from other students
“he could just now show up” “he isn’t super reliable” “he might go to a party and just forget in the morning to show up!”
it doesn’t happen - when you need him, shinwon is there
and it’s like a dream come true - watching your outfits slowly come to life on his perfect figure
there is a hiccup at some point
shinwon agrees to meet you on a thursday evening for some help - you had initially been shy about asking him to come and look at fabrics with you
you don’t really ask models for that kind of advice
but when you’d mentioned - he’d been the one to get all giddy at the thought
and, with your heart over the moon, you waited outside the fashion building
for two hours
your phone was barren of any texts - any calls 
and even though it hit 10 pm and the store was closed - you stuck it around for a little while
but he ,,,,,,,,,, didn’t show up
it’s fine! he probably had to cram for an exam or something - he seems like the type to push studying to the last minute
you make up the excuse and nod to yourself, happy with the conclusion you’ve drawn
pushing down any doubt that might have tried to bubble up
and it’s just a hiccup - because shinwon bumps into you three days later and snaps his fingers 
“AH! we were supposed to go shopping right? i totally forgot! please forgive me! shinwon has been a bad boy!”
he clasps his hands together and pouts and you laugh, telling him it’s totally fine
yuto and jinho who are beside him look confused and so shinwon introduces you as you shyly hand over your sketchbook 
because shinwon insists you show his friends your outfit planned
“wow, you’re so talented - these look so much like shinwon.”
yuto compliments, flipping to some of the old drawings you had of shinwon
you forgot about them and try to stutter out an excuse but shinwon is already sticking his nose between the pages with wonder
“woah! you’ve drawn me so much!”
you clasp your hands together - awkward and shy 
jinho takes note of the way you can’t help but smile as shinwon continues to muse about how much he likes your drawings
and when you finally get your sketchbook back - shinwon promises he will never forget when you ask him to do something again
he does this by taking your hands in his own and giving them a squeeze
you’re so happy you can’t even speak and again,,,,,,,,,,,,jinho takes note of that
as you scurry past them - realizing you’re late for class now, he turns to shinwon with a tilt of his head
“they seem really sweet. are you sure you’re being nice to them?”
shinwon rolls his eyes
“im always nice”
“no - you did forget to go shopping with them.”
shinwon puffs out his chest with a whine
“because i woke up on the roof at like 5pm - i didn’t remember my own name hyung. now stop grilling me about it - they weren’t mad and so why are you?”
jinho pulls his lips back into a tight line - yuto breaks the tension with a question about lunch and shinwon ignores the side glances jinho still throws his way
you really aren’t mad, just like shinwon said
because he shows up when you ask him to for some extra measurements and test runs on the runway 
he’s the same silly, weird, and lovely boy as usual 
playing with the sleeves of the half-finished top piece you’re working on -
showing you the new candy bracelet he got 
putting his arm around you when he leans over to look at your new sketches
knowing damn well your head goes spinning
“you’re cute when you get all nervous - do you really think im that handsome?”
he makes the joke again and you try to answer but all you can squeak out is “yes?”
he even offers to make it up to you for not showing up - the offer is to go to mcdonalds but it’s still sweet - and you assure him it’s fine, you’re not angry - not at all
but ,,,,,,,, the happiness of those moments with him dulls as more and more hiccups begin to happen
he texts you that he can’t make it to the practice runway - he’s sick
you understand
then he doesn’t text you or tell you anything on the next one - you don’t have your model and all the students shake their head with pity at you
the final date approaches faster
and shinwon,,,,,,,,,,,,,goes ghost
you don’t want to be that person and over text him - but you have to, this is about your grade
suddenly the worries you’d been told about in the beginning of all this start coming true
maybe he got super sick - i should ask his friends, but i don’t know them that well - did i do something wrong?
you don’t get it - every day without word from him is another day closer to the final runway
it stresses you out and you notice the acne coming in - the refusal to eat because it makes your stomach sick 
you’re running across campus because you’ve pulled another allnighter working on your designs and fell asleep on accident
when you slam right into someones chest
your books go flying, the yogurt you had bought falls and explodes somewhere behind you
and when you look up you see ------- what was his name ------ jinho?
“oh gosh, im so sorry”
you mutter, leaning down to get your things
jinho realizes you’re scrambling and he helps you - for which you bow over ten times and apologize again for bothering him
but before you continue on your run he asks you, much to your shock
“have you seen shinwon?”
your face pales and you can’t move forward even though you know class has started
you shake your head slowly and jinho lets out a sigh
“how long has it been?”
“maybe two weeks....”
“ah. ill talk to him.”
you perk up - and then just as instantly your shoulders sag - you shouldn’t be so excited over someone whose been ignoring you for no apparent reason
“no it’s ok-”
“isn’t he supposed to be helping you with your project. it’s not ok - he’s being a brat.”
you don’t want to argue because jinho is older and closer to shinwon, but you also don’t want it to seem like you’re begging for his help
“please,,,,,just ask him if i did something wrong?”
you look into jinho’s eyes and it clicks for him
“you like shinwon don’t you?”
your books fall out of your hands again and this time it’s not because you’ve been knocked over
you just don’t know how to answer the sudden question - because you really,,,,,,,,,,,,don’t know
“he’s my muse.”
you start
“and im just,,,,,,,i just don’t want to lose that.”
jinho leans down to help with your books again, he gives you one last look before turning and heading toward the dorms
you don’t even bother getting to class anymore - you just drag yourself to the workrooms in the fashion department and sit beside your final project
it looks much less extravagant on the mannequin then it does on shinwon
and when you open your sketchbook it flips to one of your first drawings you ever did of him
it hurts to think about him.....not even because of my grades......but because........
you shake your head and lay it down on the table
no, you always have to remember what you say. you’re a small tiny star - that boys a milkyway.
jinho finds shinwon in the bathroom of the dorm, the ramones are blasting from his phone and he’s got his hands covered in black hair dye
jumping when he sees his older friend, shinwon grumbles that jinho should at least knock 
but jinho crosses his arms, stern gaze unwavering on shinwon
“why are you ignoring that sweet fashion major who obviously idolizes you?”
“im not ignoring them - they’re ignoring me.”
shinwon points a finger
“and no one ignores me, you know this.”
he turns to look at himself in the mirror - making a face as the old orange goes back to his natural thick black
jinho cocks an eyebrow
“really? i just bumped into them and the poor kid looks like a mess.”
“are you saying im lying - look at my phone!”
jinho picks it up from where it’s charging on the bathroom sink 
“this isn’t your phone........ is it new?”
“yeah - my last gig gave it to me along with some free clothes, my old ones on my desk but im using this one now”
he scrolls through the texts messages, gagging at some of them, and he finds what he can only assume is your number
it doesn’t have your name - all it says is 
“cutest fashion major ive met in a hot minute”
jinho opens the messages and ,,,,,, it’s true - shinwon has sent an abundance of texts to you but ,,,,,,, none of them are answered
it takes three minutes for jinho to figure out what’s going on
he picks up shinwon’s old phone - find your contact (saved with the same corny name) and opens it
shinwon typed your number in..................wrong
and in his old phone are the messages from you that going unanswered
jinho groans
“ko shinwon - you’re an idiot.”
shinwon pokes his head out of the bathroom - “i know that, but what did i do this time?”
you pick your head up after what seems like hours - drool embarrassingly on the edge of the workroom table
did i fall asleep here? guess i missed more than one class.......
you stretch and look down at your sketchbook with tired eyes
“oh you’re awake?”
you jump at the sound of the voice and nearly fall out of your chair when you see shinwon sitting across from you
he’s,,,,,,,,,he’s got black hair now - and he’s not wearing his usual outrageously expensive outfits
he’s just got a flannel over some simple jeans
the sleeves are rolled up and you see those candy bracelets he loves making, the silver rings you’ve sketched on his hands a million times over
“sh-shinwon?”
“wanna hear something hilarious?”
he pulls his phone out and grins
“i was texting the wrong number for a whole two weeks - the person must think im insane! well,,,,,,,,they wouldn’t be wrong.”
you don’t understand - you look down at the screen and see the  contact name
“cutest fashion major-”
“ah ah ah don’t look at that - look at the texts.”
he waves his hand and you read them one by one
“hey - do you need me for measurements? you know my body is always ready!” “hey hey hey” “doesn’t a designer need their model?” “are you mad at me? did i do something dumb when i was drunk and i dont remember?” “heeeeeeeelllllllllloooooooo?” “ill make it up to you~ shinwon was a bad boy wasn’t he?” “hey, is everything alright?”
you still don’t really understand - you look up and shinwon is resting his cheek on his palm
“i got a new phone which is why i wasnt getting your texts and you weren’t getting mine.”
something that feels better then relief washes over you
“o-oh, i thought you just ,,,,,,,,, you just didn’t want to help me anymore?”
shinwon makes a dramatic noise and jumps up from his seat - pointing at the outfit on the mannequin
“and miss out on wearing THAT masterpiece, never!”
he rounds the table
“it’s the best design ive ever seen - from the people here and from the magazine shoots ive done.”
he looks at you and for the first time they’re not those crazy, sparkling with mischief eyes
they’re almost,,,,,,,,,,,,soft
“i really love it. i won’t let you down.”
suddenly the stress and the tiredness that had hung over you seems to vanish
you get up to and smile up at him 
“well then - i should finish it quick. i won’t let you down either!”
shinwon grins and when he reaches over to ruffle your hair like he’s done many times before
it’s like gravity refuses to let him - instead all the wires in his brain connect and he puts his hand on your shoulder gently
tugging you into his chest and into a hug
he smells like ,,,,,,,, fresh laundry and there’s the residual lingering from the hair dye
but there’s also the smell of his skin and the warmth of his tall frame
it sends an earthquake through you - but it makes you feel safe too 
and shinwon,,,,,,,,,,,,shinwon can’t believe that there’s someone on this earth who fits so perfectly into his arms
for the first time in...............ever ...........shinwon pulls away and misses the feeling instantly
he doesn’t show it - he starts blabbering to forget the mess starting up in his brain
and you are content, as always, to go along with him
shinwon feels like something has taken him over when he offers to walk you to your dorm and you think nothing of it
waving goodbye as you go inside and some students pass by shinwon in awe
ko shinwon,,,,,,,,walked someone home? and is staring at the spot they just stood in with - is that - is that -?
this time shinwon keeps to his promise - actually he probably goes up and beyond that
he even starts asking if he can come over and see your progress
sitting beside you as you work - much to the shock of everyone else
because,,,,,,,, shinwon is never one to sit still
he’s there for measurements, the show, and then he’s out
doing whatever it is he does on campus
someone asks you about it - but you just go “he wanted to come!”
it doesn’t seem all that remarkable to you - you’re just happy to see he’s proven everyone who doubted and didn’t pick him wrong
you start to talk more too, you get excited as the final project comes to a close and the day of the fashion show approaches
you explain to shinwon the colors you chose, the fabrics, the inspo 
and he stares at you in wonder this time
but you just can’t wait to see him under the lights - glittering like the beautiful model he is
on the day of the show - you’re excited to see your friends and even some of shinwon’s show up 
and as you get ready behind the stage - tailoring the pieces to sit just perfect on shinwon 
he watches your fingers work and your concentration and you apologize when you lean in to apply some makeup to his eyes
but he just welcomes it - your touch which was just like everyone elses when this started
feels like heaven all of a sudden
you hear your professor call out the order for the models - shinwon is last and it makes you nervous but you’re also happy because
this outfit is showstopper - it’s shinwon to a T 
and it deserves to be the best, so it should be saved for last
you fix one of the lapels and make sure shinwon’s accessories are in order before you take his hands in yours
you look into his eyes - it’s dark behind the curtains but shinwon sees you clear as day
“thank you - you’re the only person who could wear what i’ve made. shinwon, you’re my muse.”
you breathe as you say the word - the word you’ve wanted to say for so long now
“im your muse?”
“yes, im honored to make this outfit for you. and im so happy you worked with me. i couldn’t have done it without you. you look so beautiful-”
shinwon can’t stop what comes over him 
it’s not stupid lust like it usually is with him - it’s another worldly force this time
it’s what they sing about in all those love songs - all those songs about wanting to be connected to someone 
“no - you look beautiful.”
he presses his lips to yours before you can finish your sentence
and his name is called out for the order
he rushes to the line and you 
you are frozen - unsure of what just happened
am in a movie? did shinwon just ,,,,,,,,,,,, kiss me?
you can’t even process it - one of your classmates comes and tugs you toward the audience
you look over your shoulder and shinwon is staring at you from the line
oh my god - i think shinwon just kissed me for real.
the fashion show is a haze - you want to pay attention, but you keep touching your lips 
it’s not until the shinwon steps out into the limelight and struts with everything he’s got 
flaunting your design, making it move and sparkle just like you had seen in your vision
the crowd all let out a wave of oohs~ and the professors who are judging seem to be impressed
and when he makes his way to the turn - he spots you - the background music seems to stop 
the people seem to disappear
he was fucking right - you are beautiful
you get rave reviews on your outfit - people flock to you after the show to ask about it 
you want to answer questions and thank everyone - but you are looking for him
you’re looking for shinwon
who is in turn, looking for you - ignoring the people who try to get in his way
he pulls you out from the conversation - waving off the complaints of others 
and tugs you through the crowded stage until you guys are alone - stuffed into a corner of costume racks and abandoned makeup stations
“shinwon why did you-”
“am i just your muse? am i just someone you idolize - or do you - do you -”
he has never struggled this much in his life
you’re looking at him with such purity that it feels overwhelming as he puts his hands on your face and kisses you again
you melt into it and he eats it up - until you’re caught by stagehands who usher you annoyingly back out into the mess of people
jinho, yuto, hongseok and hui who came to see shinwon spot you guys and jinho’s eyes avert right to your hand - in shinwon’s
he smiles - he knew all along
because yes, you looked at shinwon like he was the only man in the world but 
jinho had never seen shinwon text someone seven times in a row
and he sure as hell had never seen shinwon reject an oncoming hookup like he had for the past couple of weeks
“so - something you want to tell us?” 
hongseok asks, and hui looks at you and then at shinwon
shinwon shrugs
“nah not really, just that ,,,,,,,,,,, well,,,,,,,,,,,”
he shakes your hands a little and you go red
“looks like ko shinwon is off the market! sorry ladies and gentlemen - i think ive found,,,,,,,,,,,,what’s a word for it,,,,,,,,,,,,,, my muse?”
so dating shinwon,,,,,,,,,is like a whole new world for you
you were always so sure you’d be a secret admirer - at most someone who got to work with him 
but now you were like ,,,,,,, you were his significant other ,,,,,,,,,,
you were basically like an overnight star
you showed up the next morning after the fashion show and everyone was just like
“YOU LOCKED DOWN SHINWON? KO SHINWON? HOW? WAS IT MAGIC?”
shinwon is so dramatic you know he opened up his contacts and deleted nearly everyone he’d ever fooled around with and you’re like
that’s not necessary and he’s like
“once im committed im committed. i should delete hui’s number too i think he has a crush on me”
hui in his composition class: my shinwon senses are telling me im being clowned 
no one knew,,,,,,,shinwon could love someone so hard
for most of his life he’s taken everything happy-go-lucky, he’s always just lived by the flow
but now he’s like ,,,,,,,,,, he’s like a changed person
you are the only thing he seems to put real effort into 
which you actually know isn’t true, shinwon takes modeling seriously and although his studying is slacking
you are there to encourage him 
because jinho and hongseok poking at him for never doing his homework is not going to get shinwon a degree
so you offer to help him study and your first dates consist on you trying to get him from a D to at least a C+ in most of his classes
he probably doesn’t even know how to properly use excel so you’re like babe let me 
as you date him, you realize that the uniqueness you fell for in the first place stays true with shinwon
there’s so much more to him - like his musical talents and his secret nerdiness
and also the anxiety that sometimes spikes in his throat and that he plays off but that now,,,,,,,,,now he has someone who’ll take these thing seriously
you can see it - when he can’t figure out his schoolwork or when a gig gets canceled on him
the furrow of his brow - the silliness gone from his face and in the beginning he tries to keep up appearances
but you just pull his long body down to yours and you tell him that nothing in this world is going to stop him from being successful
“you were born to shine, shinwon. it’s why i saw you for a second and never forgot”
“babe.............omg you had a crush on me from first sight?”
“im trying to be serious ko shinwon”
him wrapping his arms around your waist and tugging you in closer “i know but like oooo a crush on me hehe you’re so cute”
you: rolling your eyes but also it’s true,,,,,,kinda
he gives you a tour of the infamous madhouse dorm - stock full of vinyls, his guitar, and brand name clothes on the floor
you’re kinda like “ooo this is cute” picking up a sweater off the floor and he’s like that’s versace i think?
you: and it’s on the floor
shinwon, shrugging: i ran out of hangers
oh my god shopping for anything with shinwon is a trip he somehow always tries to buy something that’s shiny and not useful and you’re like hey hey no 
you become his impulse control - like at least 75% of it. the other 25% is jinho yelling at him over the phone
he’s such a cutie pie he loves making those candy bracelets with little rainbow charms and he makes some for you with your favorite song lyrics
which he hums as he puts on your wrist
and you promise not to take it off - which shinwon is more proud about then he should be
gives you nose kisses a lot - ruffles your hair a lot - asks you to sit on his lap and you’re like no we’re in public 
loves it when you sit behind him and put your hands in his hair as he flips through the tv channels or plays a video game
won’t admit how much it kinda turns him on when you tug it - but you learn 
you once are making out and shinwon keeps trying to tug at your shirt and you’re just like “listen to me shinwon, stop rushing me.” and oooooooooh my gooooooooooood
he thinks he sees stars
you most of the time: his precious angel who he can make all blushy with just some cheesy words
you also: bosses him around and points out his bullshit (which he is very into)
you and shinwon probably rock halloween parties - even though you’re not to big on the whole scene - you make the costumes and they’re killer and shinwon is just like
“they made this. for me. only me. only i get to wear the clothes they made”
complains about how when you’re a rich famous designer everyone else is gonna get to wear your masterpieces
makes you promise you’ll make exclusive outfits just for him
he does the MOST embarrassing thing ever
he marches into the fashion dept workroom one afternoon and he’s like “everyone, psa: when im a model i want to by chosen by ONE person and ONE person only - you know who!”
he winks your way and the whole room (including you) groans
like no one was planning on it anyway shinwon - he just lives for theatrics doesn’t he
his modeling gigs usually last a long time and go late into the night and he doesn’t expect you to stay up or anything
maybe send a text and a photo or whatever
but when he comes back to the dorms and you’re waiting in his bed wearing one of his led zepplin tshirts he just 
he just gets all giddy - can’t keep his hands to his damn self
but also shinwon is a bad texter to everyone 
but you
you get constant updates and constant photos which are demanded to become your phone background now
hongseok told you to change it to hui as a joke once but you guys were both like 
no,,,,,,,shinwon might actually cry 
jinho basically adores you because you actually do your work and try to help improve shinwon 
but he’s also big brother mode where he’s like shinwon you better not screw this up or i will end you :) 
yuto silently agrees - so does basically everyone else
jealous shinwon is ,,,,,,, like a yappy baby puppy
wooseok visits campus - a younger friend of the groups and he doesn’t know you’re dating shinwon
but he thinks you’re SOOOOOOO cute and tells everyone and shinwon just goes huffy like
“no. mine.” and wooseok is like oh ok- 
shinwon: “see my phone wallpaper - it’s us kissing. see these sneakers - it was a gift from them on our anniversary - see this bracelet on their wrist? i made it and -”
everyone: OK SHUT UP
you finished your old sketchbook and you wanted to throw it out - but shinwon salvaged it and sometimes he opens it and traces the sketches you did of him
and he just,,,,,,,,,,feels so good knowing you’ve loved him for a while - and he thought he’d never have something so real and powerful 
you once jokingly tell shinwon as you’re sitting cross-legged across from him in the park that you used to say you were a tiny star and he was a milkyway
and he just blinks and shakes his head
“no - if im a milkyway, you’re my entire galaxy.” 
and then hung his head because OK CORNY but it’s true,,,,,,it’s so true
shinwon is always opening up the world for you - from music to art to whatever 
he’s still your muse - even if he’s your boyfriend
but now instead of having to see him from all these miles away - like he’s some untouchable force
he’s sitting beside you
strumming on his guitar, hair messy and only an arms length away
you lean over and kiss his neck and he chuckles as he continues to play and you continue to sketch
only to realize some things never change
the page full of shinwon, and his heart is full of you ~

I thought that side eye the grandmaster gave Loki was because he was waiting for someone to say how young he looked. But neither Thor or Loki took the hint. Seen as before he said "anywhere else I'd be a million years old but here on Saakar..."
Listen friend lmao, you have been mislead by the secret cover that taika Waititi created in order to pass this scene of scandulous dick sucking implication to a heteronormative, pg-13 audience. On a surface watch, yours will be the conclusion that many fans (and more importantly) movie critics and Kevin Feigi might draw. But on a deeper level of watching, the truth is revealed. But it’s not too late for you, my humble anon! I can bring you up to speed.
First of all, one must note that the Grandmaster did not look at thor when he said this. He looked specifically at Loki. If he was waiting for them to take the hint and say he looked young, why not look at both of them? If simply a narcissistic urge, the compliment would be just as good from either Odinson? Why single out Loki?
In my opinion, this targeted hint already sexually charges the exchange. Loki being singled out to give a compliment that’s related to how young (i.e. “hot”) the Grandmaster looks? Yeah. that’s the Grandmaster’s idea of flirting. 
Not even to mention that erotic slow blink he gives Loki specifically.
Tumblr media
Second of all, if you look closely at the gif, you’ll see that thor and loki have very different reactions.
thor looks confused. If one were to speculate, he may even look a little… in denial that this is even happening. but generally he looks confused. if it was so simple as you claimed, i feel like thor, lovely little social charmer that he is, would be able to catch the hint, even if he’s not feeling generous enough to act upon it. thus, he would look angry/annoyed. but no. he remains confused the whole time - and he looks to loki, not the grandmaster, to answer his confusion. this implies there’s more going on beyond the surface that he just can’t figure out. (or maybe doesn’t want to figure out. lmao, which would be fair considering it involves his brother sucking dick.)
loki, on the other hand, does not look confused At All. On a surface viewing, one may (mistakenly) assume that his expression meres thor’s as one of confusion because of the quick succession of facial shots. But taken on its own, Loki’s expression very much does not mirror thor’s. No, this supposed thirsty cockslut is not confused at all.
In fact his face goes through a VASt variety of expressions that we will have to look at individually in order to surmise his true reaction. 
(Note: You’ll have to excuse my low quality screenshots because it is hard to find a screencap service that captures each emotion since they happen so fucking fast >.>)
Tumblr media
#1: Does this look like confusion? Hell no! this is the face of a man whose brain is about 15 seconds behind the conversation and who just heard something that shrieks at his synapses to HURRY tHE FUCK UP like “oh my god is this really happening? Did I really just understand what was said? Am I even real right now like what just happened?” Our boy is fucking so dizzy that he’s all dulled and half-surprised like he’s waiting for his mouth to start working.
Tumblr media
#2: His brain has finally caught up and oh boy is he SHOCKED. He is just like “oh FUCK this IS really happening, i DID really understand what was just said, i AM real and oh FUCK oh NO”. this is the face of shock. of borderline horror. like oh my god thor is standing right there and you be fucking flirting with me right in front of him, but luckily, on the plus side,
Tumblr media
#3: his mouth has started working again. whether or not he chooses to use it, he has the capacity for higher thought and speech now. and with this newfound ability, does he look confused? does he look annoyed? HELL NO. He looks like he’s sweating up his shirt. He looks like a man of FEAR. he wants to start babbling, start explaining himself because thor CANNOt know the truth. he’s all like, “what is thor thinking of me? has he figured it out? what can I say to defend myself?” that cute little eyebrow scrunch of sadness conveys the homerotic dubcon tension mmmm, and oh boy he DOES NOt WANt tO BE HERE, he DOES NOt WANt tHOR tO BE HERE, he wants fucking OUt of this mind game the Cock Master is playing with him, which leads us to….
Tumblr media
#4: finally we reach the final stage of grief: acceptance. Our boy is resigned here. this is the face of a man who has just realized the Grandmaster has set him up in this situation deliberately to watch as he squirms. this is the face of a man how is pressing his lips together to avoid babbling excuses about his dick sucking situation. this is the face of a man who knows he is powerless and utterly at the Grandmaster’s whim. and wow is he mightily (but quietly) resentful ;)
tldr; yes of course the grandmaster wanted somebody to com4liment his youthful looks. it’s just that he wanted the somebody to be Loki and he wanted it to be Loki so that he could be like “HAHAHA WE’RE FUCKING AND YOU DON’t WANt YOUR BROtHER tO KNOW AND I CAUGHt YOU MMMHMMMMHMMMM~~~~~ YOU ARE MINE AND YOU ARE HELPLESS”
third of all, what do you think this is if not, “you are my trophy concubine and you are not allowed to say no to me” homoerotic tension lmao:
Tumblr media
fourth and finally, like and i genuinely apologize if you were just trying to have a fun conversation with me :(
please and thank you lol, and i hope you can enjoy my two ted talks now

An Evening Dance - Seungwoo Quantum Leap Spin-Off
Masterlist
Pairing: Seungwoo x Reader
Warnings: None
Word Count: 1,712
Notes: There is a lot of stuff from the series incorporated, but I tried to make the fluffy part good so maybe people who don’t read the series can read this!! I also had a really good idea for a piece of art I could do for this... but I can’t draw that good lol
Song Recommendation: Can You Hear My Heart - Epik High (Feat. LEE HI)
Quantum Leap : The Beginning
Tumblr media
You and Seungwoo had been travelling from reality to reality, trying to find the whereabouts of Talo and kdqmbg. Unfortunately, you had no leads, even as you asked the people who lived within each reality. However, something that greatly confused you was there was no version of you in any world you went to. You had spotted Seungwoo on multiple occasions, and the other boys showed their faces a couple of times as well.
‘But why not me?,’ you thought to yourself, ‘Surely I exist in one of these realities…’ 
Although you had no answers to your serious questions, Seungwoo told you many stories as you travelled in and between realities and you told some of your favorite memories in return. And while scrounging up some of your tales from the back of your mind, a fuzzy memory appeared in your head.
It was quite clear Talo had messed with it or even altered it, but the more you looked at it, the more you could start to see a picture in your mind. You had identified that it definitely took place at the flower shop near your residence and that there was a person standing in front of the front door, offering you a charming yellow daisy.
You hadn’t had much time to think about it, however, as today had been quite a busy day. Yunseo had managed to take you into two different realities and of course, it hadn’t amounted to any new leads. Since her powers were still on cooldown, you and Seungwoo were forced to find somewhere to stay in the current reality you were in. Luckily, you had quickly been taken in by a nice old lady.
This realm was quite different, you had to admit. Everything was brightly colored, and everyone had little pictures underneath their right eye, depicting what kind of powers they possessed. There were drops of water, little crystals, tiny flames, and many more. Everyone from this place was also insanely beautiful and retained their good looks even into old age, like the lady you were staying with.
She had a small flower underneath her eye, and her long, white hair had flowers woven into it. The three of you were currently eating what you assumed was dinner, but you had no complaints. Whatever she had served you tasted like cinnamon rolls for some reason, but you didn’t want to ask and get an answer you didn’t want.
The dinner had been mostly silent before she spoke up, “I can tell that neither of you are from here, that much is obvious.” Her eyes wistfully cast up before she says, “I’m unsure how much help I can be, but I can tell you’re on the search for Talo and kdqmbg.”
You and Seungwoo instantly turn to each other, gaping, but before you can say anything, the lady continues, “Just as my grandson is. They once terrorized our lands, but once they knew what they were looking for wasn’t here, they simply wiped our memories and moved to the next realm.”
“My grandson was born with the ability to move from one reality to the next. It doesn’t extend much further than that, but he would often leave to explore other places. He happened to leave on the day our memories were wiped, and so, he remembers everything from the time they were here.”
“He left only about two years ago to try and find them. He never returns home, and I’ve been forced to pretend as if my own grandson is dead,” she says, pausing for a split second to let Seungwoo and I process this before continuing, “While I cannot definitively point you in the direction of where my grandson is, I know he resides in a world where there are no natural magical powers. If you manage to find him, I’m sure he will be more than ready to fight for your cause.” A silence settles among the three of you before you finally say, “Thank you, ma’am. We’ll try and find your grandson and bring him back to you if we can.” She simply smiles at your words and says, “Thank you dear. Let me show you to your rooms.”
~~
After you had gotten settled in the temporary rooms, you and Seungwoo were left with nothing to do but think. You turned back and forth on the bed you were laying on, and you couldn’t help but feel both hope and despair. ‘On one hand, we’ve gotten a lead,’ you thought, ‘But on the other hand, we don’t know where to go with it in the first place.’
You rubbed your eyes frustratedly, trying to push away the tears of hopelessness that were forming in your eyes. ‘I need some fresh air,’ you thought. Without saying anything to Seungwoo, you walked out of the room you were sharing and eventually made your way into the backyard of the property.
It overlooked a valley, and the horizon was spectacularly colored with the hues of a late sunset. The backyard was also filled with different colored roses, and each one of them had little dots of glitter covering the petals. You honestly couldn’t believe how saturated this world was and how beautiful everything appeared to be.
You breathed in deeply, taking in the fresh air of the mountains. As you exhaled slowly, you mind started drifting back towards your mission and you sighed. ‘I just can’t seem to get my mind off of it,’ you think, ‘But how can I not? I have so many worries…’
Turning around slowly, you started to take a step back towards the door, but before you did, you noticed Seungwoo standing in the doorway. “What are you doing y/n?” he asks, stepping down from his position to walk towards you. 
“Just getting a breath of fresh air,” you say as Seungwoo stands next to you, facing the fading sunset. “It sure seems like you almost got more stressed coming out here,” he says, tilting his head at you. “W-well, you know, it’s just a lot of pressure to like stop an evil villain that I’ve never even really seen before.”
He smiles at you and says, “Yeah, it definitely is. But we’ve got each other, don’t we? If we work hard, we’ll find them in no time, but if we’re divided and slow, we’ll never get anything done. So, while we’re seeing all of these amazing places, let’s make the most of it, okay?”
Your face heats up slightly at his words, but before he says anything else, he starts floating. He turns himself to face you, the sunset colors surrounding him as he held his hand out to you and says…
“Dance with me, y/n.”
You reach your hand out without thinking twice, and you instantly feel the gravity on you fade. He smiles at you gently, taking your other hand in his delicately. The two of you gaze into each other’s eyes, the hues of the sunset reflected in both of your irises.
After a few seconds, you look down shyly, your cheeks a rosy pink, before realizing how high you and Seungwoo were flying. A slow, sweet song surrounds the two of you, and you immediately look up at Seungwoo in surprise. “W-what? Is that you making that Seungwoo?” you ask confusedly. He smiles sheepishly, a slight blush dusting his cheeks, before saying, “I’ve had Makani teach me a few things over the years.”
The tune picked up in pace once he had spoken, and Seungwoo moved one of his arms around your waist while the other held your still connected hands outwards. He started out by doing a simple step, allowing you to easily follow.
The two of you swayed from side to side, concentrating on the feel of the music and each other’s presence. Your heart felt warm and the sunset’s final glow made Seungwoo somehow look more attractive. “I’m going to spin you,” Seungwoo says quietly, almost as if he didn’t want to break the silence. You nod in response, and he elegantly twists you around before you instantly go back to the basic step.
You fell into a rhythm, Seungwoo spinning you around on every 4th beat. Your eyes eventually closed at some point and all you could feel was Seungwoo’s arm around you and all you could hear was the soft tune of the song and Seungwoo’s steady breathing from above you.
Soon enough, the sunset had disappeared beyond the horizon, and you and Seungwoo continued dancing among the many different colored stars, this reality’s three moons shining down on you. The song moved from fast to slow as it played out and you followed the song perfectly, almost as if you were a machine.
Suddenly, the music came to a pause, and Seungwoo slowly brought the two of you to a stop. You looked up at him again and his eyes were glowing their usual tawny color. His smile made its way back onto his face and he brought your still connected hands to his lips, your hand on top.
He pressed a soft but firm kiss to your hand, and a warm feeling spread throughout your entire body, your face heating up considerably more than the rest of your body. As he removed his lips, he flashed you one last smile before he turned around, flying back towards the ground quickly, you holding onto your still connected hand tightly.
But as you were flying down, your mind flew back, hitting the spot where that one memory had been. You were thrown into the memory, and this time it appeared in color. The flowers in front of the shop were vibrant, and you were clearly making your way towards the entrance, where someone was currently standing.
And as you looked at their face, you immediately knew who it was.
You were thrown back into reality as soon as you realized, and Seungwoo had just landed, meaning your feet were just about to touch the ground. You somehow landed smoothly, your mind still feeling fuzzy from the sudden throwback. “You went out for a second there y/n, what happened?” Seungwoo asks, looking at you concernedly. 
“Seungwoo,” you start, “I think I knew you in my original reality.”

A Buncha Tag Games (and yet not all of them)
tagged by: @eggyukhei mwah
tagging: this is a LOT of games so i’ll only tag @atinyphobe @nsheetee and @veonjun for the SECOND (2nd) game. if they or anybody wants to do any of the other games, absolutely go for it and say i tagged you <3 i’d love to see what you guys say!! (also, tk if you felt like you wanted to answer my questions from the second game i’d be interested to see!)
One:
tell me the first song that made you stan your current fave group and why did your faves attract you so much?
ok SO the song that probably got me into rv 100% (also yes ik this blog is 99% nct but rv is my forever fave no question) was probably ice cream cake!! i had been a casual listener of many groups up until that point and had never really stanned anyone, but icc was so infectious i found myself watching it over and over. i had heard happiness and be natural before but hadn’t really listened too closely, so icc was the song that captured me. after that, dumb dumb only cemented my love for them more, and the red is still one of my favorite kpop albums to date. rv attracted me primarily because of their incredible vocals and their versatility in genres and concepts. i still get so excited wondering what they’ll tackle next!! they’re just soooo unique and have one of, if not the best discographies of any group. i cannot stress enough, I. Love. RV!! also they’re funny and gay so. anyway stream monster once it drops uwu
Two:
rule: answer the ten questions and write your own!
1. what is your favorite song that’s been released during quarantine? ooooo honestly??? probably something off of Sawayama. literally every song bangs so hard i highly recommend that album to anyone!! i can’t pick a favorite off it but who’s gonna save you now is awesome and xs is just,,, chef’s kiss
2. what is your greatest mishap when you tried cooking? (or something you’ve witnessed) one time, while making soup at my late grandmother’s house on her like gas stove, i put a lid on a pot and somehow that led the pot to be engulfed in flames. IN MY DEFENSE i was like 7, and i’m great at cooking/baking now
3. what’s your go-to outfit or article of clothing? oh i love a nice dress. they can be casual or formal, and you look like you put effort into your outfit except i didn’t because i didn’t have to match anything yo!!!! also shorts have trouble fitting me cause i’m a weird body type so dresses tend to be very comfy for me
4. what is your comfort food? am i allowed to say like all food??? eating in itself is comforting,,, that sounds depressing but also i just like eating yummy food. i guess i’d say like my dad’s fried rice?? its my fave and no one makes it like him soooo
5. what singular moment in your life would you like to relive? i couldn’t tell if this meant like, a good moment you want to re-experience or go back in time and redo a moment and fix it. it’s kind of a hard question so i might cop out and go with a bit of a silly answer: i want to relive the hi touch with astro...... i wanna look at rocky’s beautiful eyes and touch moonbin’s hand ok,,,,
6. what is your favorite line and/or character from a movie, show, or book? i got a bunch but a few off the top of my head are genie lo (the epic crush of genie lo), ty lee, suki (atla), klaus, and ben (umbrella academy) 
7. if you could only choose one ice cream flavor and pizza topping/style for the rest of your life, what would it be? ice cream flavor: this very specific one from a local store that is banana ice cream with strawberries and oreo mixed in. it is heaaaavenly. as for pizza topping, i love a breakfast type pizza with an egg on top and like sausage and stuff!!!
8. what is the worst injury you’ve ever had or witnessed? funny enough, i’ve actually gotten badly injured quite a few times, and always on the face!! god hates me. the worst was probably when i hit a metal bench with my face and it took a chunk out of my cheek. i still have the scar! as for “witnessed” i accidentally broke a grown man’s rib once as a child, so i guess that would count.
9. would you rather explore the unknown of space or the bottom of the ocean? oceaaaan!! i answered this in some other game, but i like how mysterious and yet close the ocean is. like proximity wise it’s so near, yet there’s an insane amount we know nothing about. that’s so frightening but so intriguing
10. if you could be any cartoon character, who would you be? my first thought was literally “kirby. eat fast” GOD my followers are gonna think i’m just a glutton and they’re not even gonna be wrong im dying. but uhh idk mulan or smth?
my questions:
what is your go-to feel good movie?
are you the type of person who’s indecisive about buying, or the type to impulse buy once you see something you like?
do you prefer chocolate-y or fruity candy?
what idol do you think is most similar to you? (not your bias necessarily)
do you have any silly dealbreakers? if so, what are they?
what do you do to unwind?
what is a small thing you like to do for people you love? (be it sending memes, remembering their favorite shows, etc)
what’s/who’s your favorite myth/mythological being?
what is a non-typical pet you would want to have?
do you say pronounce data as day-ta or dah-ta?
