PRINCE!GOJO X KNIGHT!READER MY BELOVED i just thought about another thing and i need to get it out - i like to think out knights are connected ok. hear me out maybe my knight is just another version of yours - meaning if my knight had met satoru at a young age, they would've turned into your knight DOES THAT MAKE SENSE your knight is a bit more soft (still a warrior though!!!) while mine isn't as soft as they'd like to be and that's just because one grew up in a castle with the prince taking care of them and the other grew up having to fend for themselves they're all just sooooooooooooooo ahhhh i can't i keep thinking about your knight too like they all actually made a cozy little home in my head i love them so much

and i think your lovely "i think i was born to meet you." applies for my little prince and his little knight too:(((((((((((

- @softgirlgonehaywire

MICKEY I KNOW I SAY THIS EVERY DAY BUT WE RLLY ARE CONNECTED i was literally thinking abt this while answering that ask…. the differences between our knights…. AND UR SOSO RIGHT thats literally perfect. its canon to our lore now. 

it makes sm sense too bc the reason why my knight!reader is so devoted to prince!gojo is bc he saved them!! and i think that also leads them to have a kind of hero complex where they want to return the favor, or save others the way he saved them… but to your knight satoru is just a silly little spoiled prince that theyve never met before, so why would they like him??

ok but now im just thinking abt our knights meeting each other…::: ur knight coming face to face w a version of them that isnt as hardened, that was saved and got to live a more peaceful life….. the envy and maybe contempt? or maybe just apathy. idk but i am THINKING

AND AND AND…….. ok but what if our princes met the other version of their knight 😵‍💫😵‍💫 HEAR ME OUT HEAR ME OUTTT

just…. ur prince!gojo meeting a knight!reader who is soso loyal and smitten w him (he would cry and explode i think)….. and my prince!gojo meeting a knight!reader who lost their smile (WHO HE FAILED TO SAVE oh i think that would just break him)…… my knight being so indulgent and ur satoru taking full advantage of it, ur knight getting hissy when my gojo acts overprotective…… HHHHH IM LOSING IT MICKEY CAN U FEEL IT……..

anyways in my head theyre one big found family who take care of each other <333 love & peace on planet earth etc etc. they were meant to meet each other one way or another!!!

#THE ARI/MICKEY KNIGHT&PRINCE MULTIVERSE GOES CRAZY #i also think its so funny how one side is just fluff bc sweet lil prince!gojo gets a knight who loves him back #while the other side is just gut-churning soul-shattering Angst LOL #but tbh i think ur prince would miss having a knight who will just beat the shit out of him #and my prince would literally throw up out of guilt if he learned abt the pain ur knight went thru LMAO (there are tears in my eyes.) #THE INTERACTIONS FLOODING MY BRAIN RN…. mickey u keep infecting me more and more pls stop i cant take it 💔💔 #ok but im also soso curious to learn more abt ur little prince so i can dissect the differences between our gojos too… #my spontenous take was just that maybe my gojo is a lil more twisted..? cruel maybe? but i honestly dont know #i feel like theyre both soft and kind but also a little sick in the head #maybe ur gojo is a bit more spoiled or coddled……… less detached?? mickey im so interested in him u dont even know #i cant wait to learn more!!! #ask tag ✩

We fucking hate NYC I met a very nice young woman who told me my $6 liquor store soju wasn’t the same quality as the one she paid $20 for at the bar and I was like you’re right because liquor store soju was actually flavored vs the plain soju she had

#she did say she’d check it out next time she was in Jersey tho I wish her all the best in the world she was so nice #and it was jinro like girl this is literally so available at any liquor story oh my god #I was too busy pretending to kiss the feet of a different girl who said I was too soft for NYC to really sell the point home tho #she said you talk like someone who wants to be taken advantage of and I was like um yes and no #I said ma’am please teach me your ways and then leaned into my friend and said maybe too loudly “oh my god I don’t like this girl” #and then she went home with the most generic white dude ever like whoa #who knew freedom would be so basally genetic and easy to obtain

OK FOLLOWING UP ON THE BARD THING i think eichi definitely invited wataru to perform at a noble party before. because they'd usually have musicians and so? so ok picture this. it's eichi's birthday so his parents want him to hold a ball and he usually thinks those are annoying but then he gets an idea. make it a masquerade (for the drama). invite wataru as both a performer And his partner for the ball. he's an actor! and everyone is of course impressed by wataru's performance but they're even more impressed because the always polite but unreachable tenshouin heir is expertly dancing with a masked stranger (i love the fact that eichi's specialty in his profile is ballroom dancing). and then they're annoying and overdramatic in public together but no one can figure out Who That Is

and also i know you said that shu was a tailor but i think it would be funny if he also were a noble (his family is also of high standing in canon i think) so he can be there to judge eichi. harshly. i havent figures out yet how to make him besties w wataru but ! it can work

!!!!

This got soooo long again so this is once more put under read more I am so sorry

The idea with the Masquerade comes up while Eichi complains to Wataru about his parents pretty much forcing him to throw a ball for his upcoming birthday (they already planned the whole thing and didn't reallly give him a choice in the matter) and how much of a hassle he thinks that is because of all the superficial politeness between people that everyone knows are gossipping about each other behind each others backs and how sick he is of the pretending to be well acquainted with these people he's talked to maybe once or twice and all the ladies that wish to dance with him and that want to suck up to him because of his families wealth and how really this is all just one big farce to "save face". So Wataru suggests "why not make it a masquerade ball" to spice things up a little bit maybe, take some of the stiffness out of it. And Eichi says he wants to invite Wataru because what's a public event without proper entertainment? Wataru agrees of course and they come up with all of these overly grandiose ideas and scenarios (most of them are utterly absurd. One they genuinely consider involves Wataru pretending to kidnap Eichi and causing a scandal (Eichi woud miraculously reappear the next day and they'd gaslight everyone into thinking that never even happened and all the people are just imagining things)).

Wataru mentions that he'll be gone for an evening to play at the noble's ball to the elderly inn-keeper couple over dinner and they make a really big fuss about it and tell him to dress nicely and to watch his manners because "Remember, you can't just drop from the ceiling with those high society people like we let you do it here they're very sensitive about manners you have to make sure to watch your manners!" and for a minute he wonders how it got to the point that his landlords started to treat him like they personally picked him up from the street when he was a child.

I like to think he met Shu when he was out on the street doing a little street performance to earn some extra money for himself and Shu, the way that he is, came by, looked him up and down, and then started a conversation with him about music as an art form and that somehow turned into a philosophical discussion and at the end of that they each went their own ways with the knowledge that there was a new friendship formed that day.

And maybe he's the one that sews Watarus clothes for the ball because if you spent most of your life as a traveling bard living hand to mouth from your music you won't really have the money for fancy clothes (Eichi still insists on paying for Wataru here because he wouldn't need to spend so much money on fancy ballgowns if it wasn't for him in the first place and also he just wants to treat Wataru to something nice and sees this as his chance seeing as Wataru declines most gift offers me made before). Wataru tells him about the entire thing and Shu scoffs because dislikes Eichi (still need to come up with a way to explain that disdain but I will come up with something trust me!) but his parents force him to be there too so "he might as well" (it's obvious he still puts in a lot of care "because of his pride as an artists" (because Wataru is his friend and he wants him to have something nice)).

Shu only has to be there because his family guilt trips him into going and he doesn't see the point in opening that can of worms again ("We already let you pursue your foolish dream of sewing clothes like a commoner this is the least you could do for your family.")

And then at the actual event he's in some secluded corner together with some other people who only attended as a mere formality because they also do not like the Tenshouin family but they have to be there because they're important and aristocrat politics are weird that way I suppose.

Meanwhile Wataru does his usual thing and charms everyone with his beautiful beautiful voice and his elegance and charm and oh he is so agreeable as a performer. Eichi has to handle the usual "pleasantries" (nothing pleasant about those tries) and he exchanges the one or the other suffering glance with Yuzuru when nobody pays attention that just screams "God when will it end". Yuzuru shoots him back a look that conveys the exact emotion of "my condolences" and then he goes on to look for Tori who's 1.53m figure has disappeared in the group of people and when he finds him he's talking to a gentleman that's about a head taller than him and the mask obscures his face but judging by the hair and the slight "animosity" between them he's talking to Tsukasa, so Yuzuru decides he's in good hands and leaves to do his own thing. (do they know they're talking to each other? Who knows! But they'd probably manage to start bickering either way.)

And eventually it gets to the actual Ball bit of the Birthday Ball Event where they actually dance (there's an actual orchestra there now and they play very lovely music). And almost everyone asks to dance with Eichi at least once. Eichi does not want to waste his time and energy on these people who are just interested in him for his money so he always makes up something about being preoccupied or a little tired or something that gives them no other choice but to back off. Suddenly Wataru appears behind him and does a little "boo!" and Eichi didn't expect that so he startles and almost drops his glass and tells Wataru not to do that anymore at public eventshas while Wataru has to stiffle a laugh because he thinks Eichi is cute when he pretends to try to be firm with him. After he's done with his "scolding" (you can barely call it that. he was very soft on Wataru.) Wataru asks him for a dance this time and he's very chivalrous about it - he goes all out really - he kisses his hand and offers him a rose while he does a little bow and asks if he "may have this dance with the lovely star of the evening" (and oh Eichi wants to kiss him so bad right then and there but in a room full of people that are worse than a committee of vultures that is very much not an option). Of course he agrees and they move to the dance floor and suddenly a Lot of eyes are on them because Eichi Tenshouin, whom a good chunk of pursuers have already given up on - because let us be real. It will never happen. The man hasn't shown interest in anyone at any moment in time and lives together with the Himemiya heir and his butler as far removed from the rest of the aristocracy as one would be able to - is waltzing with this masked stranger and it becomes very obvious very quickly that Eichis constant declining of dance offers was not for a lack of expertise because those two look breathtaking together.

Eichi actually dips Wataru once and some people wish they had hired an artist to paint the scene (because I'm a sap and wataei is beautiful I don't care I'm being self indulgent here)). And they talk but nobody can understand what because of the loud music and they curse the orchestra - which is still playing very lovely music (it's heavenly really) - for it.

After their dance is over Eichi goes back to declining every dance offer he gets with the excuse he's exhausted and needs to rest a little before he can dance again (the "I don't wish to dance with you" is implied and in the room but most people chose to ignore it to spare their ego and decide to take him at face value) and Wataru disappears to somewhere, nobody really knows where but somehow he's nowhere to be found. Until he sneaks up to Eichi a second time and does the whole "Boo!" thing again and Eichi almost drops his glass yet another time and as he turns around to "scold" Wataru again Wataru shushes him and takes Eichis, who is more confusedd than anything by now, hand and sneaks out of the ballroom with him.

Eichi asks where they are going and Wataru doesn't answer he just keeps walking and Eichi decides to just trust the process and suddenly they're on the Balcony again, not a cloud in the sky and the only sounds to be heard are the muffled instrumentals from the orchestra that started playing their next piece. The only lightsource being the moonlight reflected by the new years snow. And Wataru turns around, he's not wearing a mask anymore, and he does his little bow and kisses Eichis hand, hands him a rose he had appear from nowhere - a white one this time - and does his entire "May I have this dance with the lovely star of the evening" spiel again. It's the same routine really but it's different somehow. More intense. Because he says it with more sincerity than he did when they were around more people. And Eichi doesn't even have to reply before he finds himself whisked into this waltz yet again, somehow in the leading position. And then they dance and they dance and it's just the two of them, the stars as their only witnesses. And as the orchestra finishes their piece and the music fades out Eichi dips Wataru again and they kiss and it is so sappy and they are so so so so sappy.

They stay out on the balcony a little while longer but they retreat back inside rather timely seeing as it is still january and the night and as the following consequence of those two circumstances actually pretty cold and they'd both rather Eichi not get sick (he already got Watarus coat but then they'd also both like it very much if Wataru also didn't get sick either so they migrate back into the empty, dimly lit hallways of the mansion rather quickly)

(meanwhile at the actual ball people have noticed Eichi missing and started to ask questions, poor Yuzuru has to repeatedly tell people Eichi probably retreated into his quarters already, seeing as it is rather late and he was rather tired "Please excuse the young master for his failing in notifiying the other guests, he told me he didn't wish to interrupt the nice atmosphere and preferred to leave unnoticed".)

After the festivities died down Yuzuru and Tori go to check up on Eichis room because he's been gone without any notice and it would probably be useful to know if their kind-of-roommate just went away to fool around with that strange bard man they've been seeing sneaking around their mansion from time to time that Eichi seems to be oddly fond of or if the should actually be worried about his well-being. After they knock and get no reply Yuzuru just opens the door and he and Tori are both greeted with the view of Eichi asleep in his bed and next to him the also seemingly fast asleep figure of Wataru who's braid got considerably more lose during the course of the evening and who's also seemingly wearing some of Eichis sleepwear.

They both decide they have seen enough they do neither need nor wish to see more. Yuzuru, who has been in this situation before doesn't even have it in him anymore to react in a specific way. He just lets out this big sigh because he doesn't get paid enough for all of this as he directs Tori out of the room. Tori who has not been in this situation before has a Lot of questions now because he doesn't know this man but he's apparently closer to Eichi than most other people and he doesn't know how to feel about that but happy is probably not it.

(The following day Eichi has to listen to a (rightfully) disgruntled Yuzurus passive-agressive-yet-somehow-still-very-polite-sounding-Yuzuru-complaints about him just disappearing like that and leaving it to Yuzuru to take care of his mess (Eichi promises him to make up for it and that if Yuzuru has any favour to ask he's very welcome to come to Eichi about it). Tori really wants to ask about the strange man Eichi was so involved with but between not really getting a word in while Eichi and Yuzuru are talking and not really knowing how to take the exceedigly good mood Eichi is in (he's had "A very nice evening". With utmost certainty it was for reasons other than him actually enjoying the mingling witht the high society at social function he was obligated to host, Tori guesses), he kind of clinks out here and decides to simply take matters into his own hands when he gets the chance.)

It’s such a foreign concept to me that bad people get to be happy. I know we as people make our own happiness but I don’t understand how people who went out of their way to hurt people get to be happy while the people they hurt have to suffer with what they did to them.

#stupid shit #I lurked again #I want her to suffer so much which makes me a bad human being but it is truly not fair #it’s not fair that we live in this narrative that she’s the uwu soft I just love to spread kindness girl #even though we ALL KNOW she wasn’t #it was a stupid TikTok I watched of hers #she went through each month one by one and ranked them based on what happened and it was SO sugarcoated #‘my friend group started to fall apart (for the best)’ #yeah maybe it fell apart because you were lying to everyone about being sexually assaulted???? #and that your BEST FRIEND tried kissing you when everyone knew damn well that she would NEVER because she loves her boyfriend to death #or what about the time where you cheated on your then boyfriend with two #maybe three other guys??? #and what about you calling off work every other day claiming you were sick but you really just didn’t want to come in??? #then you have to take a leave of absence because you were too sick to stand up but I guess not too sick to go to Disney #weird huh #then she goes on how she ‘found happiness’ being closer with her family and old friends #yeah I guess you had to do that because everyone knew all of the shit that she’d do #I hope your boyfriend breaks up with you because you deserve nothing homegirl ❤️🥰🫶🫰

Hi! I have a question about odnlb<3 Maybe it sounds a bit silly or I just didn't understand at all, but could you explain more about all this Graham de Vanily/Twin rings thing? 👀 I understood that it was necessary a pair of twins for each generation to have wealth and stuff like that, right? There is more about that? I really loved that storyline in odnlb! In the show it's really confusing and inconsistent (actually non existent), but now for me the odnlb version is the canon one💕

yeah of course! i'm so sorry if it was confusing. i knew it was a risk adding "outside magic" to the miraculous lore but this is really the only way i could see the ring thing making sense haha.

we will get more ring lore coming up, but here are the basics:

the twin rings have an enchantment on them (not miraculous-related) that blesses the whole graham de vanily bloodline with fame, fortune, and beauty as long as a pair of twins own the rings. since twins run in the family, giving it to twins wasn't an issue until emilie and amelie.

when emilie made the senti twins (in odnlb it's because she and gabe couldn't have children), she bonded them to the rings BECAUSE of this enchantment. felix and adrien would be more protected this way. with the rings/boys in amelie & emilie's possession/care, their lives would be more secure, more charmed. (felix got punched by ladybug in collateral damage and only got a bruise instead of a broken jaw, for example.) this is also why she had to split the twins up. they had to be with a PAIR of twins in order to keep the enchantment intact.

the downside is that they are sentis, and therefore vulnerable to the condition of the amoks. because adrien has been fraying his bond to his amok using cataclysm, he's actually been slowly destroying his amok (and his miraculous too, but that's a separate issue). and because the rings hold a split amok, felix gets the short end of that stick.

#ty so much for liking my crack worldbuilding #i just figured there is something up with these rings! #something miraculous related maybe #but wouldn't it be cool if it wasn't #and the show explored outside magic #like if there are other miracle boxes and other superheroes why can't there be other magic too #i was trying to go with soft a soft magic system but maybe i went too soft #odnlb #one does not love breathing #adrien agreste #felix graham de vanily #amelie graham de vanily #emilie agreste #sentiadrien #sentifelix #sentitwins

Hi there! 📚🙏🏻😁

Thanks so much for the ask~

This might be cheating, because I sort of started writing something a long time ago that I never got around to finishing, and I do think about it a lot but haven't touched it in a while.

It's set not long after Skyfall, and Bond is struggling with everything that happened. M's death dredges up a lot of other things he's kept buried, and so Bond's trying to drown it all out with his usual methods: recklessness and alcohol. He's stuck in London and out on a liquor run one night when he encounters Q, who essentially drags Bond back to his flat where he makes him a hearty, home-cooked meal. It's then that Bond learns that Q likes cooking, and that he's good at it (honestly just an excuse for me to share some of my recipes???), and somehow it turns into Bond showing up at Q's house every night for dinner every night he's in London.

The story is really about exploring their friendship-to-lovers journey, but it's also a lot about grief. Bond is carrying a burden of so much loss and guilt, but he's not the only one. The clearest plot point in this fic is actually about Q: Q lost his fiance/husband something like 5 years previous. They had been travelling on an airplane overseas when his husband suffered a pulmonary embolism. With nowhere to put down the plane for an emergency landing, and lack of medical facilities, Q's partner died in his arms. This is why Q refuses to fly.

Their shared mealtimes are partly about learning about one another and growing closer as friends (and then as lovers), but also working through their grief together, healing together. Bond didn't think anyone could truly understand him, but then Q came along with his bolognese and that, as they say, was that.

I might poke at this one in the future, but I've got a few other things in the queue now so maybe one day :)

Thanks again for the ask! These are fun :)

#00Q #ask game #it's a weird one for me because i started this a long time ago #then i lost someone very dear to me #sometimes writing about grief can help with grief and be good therapy #but this one was just too soon after and i never went back to it #maybe one day because i think this would be another nice soft thing to write

#my posts #i cant fully articulate this #idk if i have the time either #but. help. i will tag this with my organization tags. i may see this at some other time and maybe ill be able to so #disco elysium #hdb #im just thinking about him and martinaise harry and his childhood and the 15th indotribe thing and dora #how probably considering the type of friends he had and how they all ended..... they were probably all like him personality wise #like. im not saying they were bad people like harry was kind of an asshole but not fully #like they were all a bunch of teens in a bad situation trying to make the best of it however they can and well... didnt work out too well #but what i mean is that i think thats partially why he got that level of attached to dora? she didnt go through what he did #she had the money to not go through that she was stable she was a constant in his life that was pure and that wasnt always #going through something. a guide. harry went to her like a moth to a fire with pure devotion bc she was everything he never had #she probably also treated him different than what all his previous friends would have. i imagine her to be very gentle #and harry probably never got to know too much about people being soft so that was also. new. but somethign imposible to him #so i can see how he would love her like that to the point of basically worshipping her as god and how he would still love her #years after it went to shit even when he cant remember anything. it makes sense #i think they were engaged bc the wedding gown but idk if its said in game. but he loved her enough to want to marry her in a world #where real love isnt possible for him but only for new people in a new world he still wanted that with her even if it didnt work out #he holds to whatever he can of her as a lifeline and i. man. dude. yeah no i get him #idk how long they were together but it also doesnt matter bc of how harry is as a person #also of course at first it was all good. she was basically fixing him but he cant get fixed only with love in a world like that! #or with a life like his... it was always going to go down. and i. dude #... i am thinking about this as someone who still loves someone and we werent even dating like #i think if we dated and it went bad like. i think id be in a similar situation to harry tbh. i get him #yeah no yeah lmao i do think of this person also sort of as the only good thing in my life #and i am glad she did reject me when i confessed bc if i had fully lost her i dont know where id be? but also man its been 7 years #of the rejection and basically 10 of falling for her. i get harry so fucking badly on this one USHDGIUHUSG #ok in the end i did say what i had to say but in the tags i dont think ill make a proper post out of it #but i did write it in a way that wasnt articulated for a post so i think i was right making it like this lmao

Is it weird to say that I want to baby the hell out of Bakugou? His ass would be getting drowned in affection every time we were home alone together. Hopefully that wouldn’t drive him bonkers. 😅

NO. no. nononononononono absolutely not. Literally every time I look at that stupid boy I just wanna baby him. SO BADLY.

And not even in a condescending way, either... but truly because I believe he deserves all the love, kindness, and kisses in the world. It's something I'm ALWAYS thinking about, how much of an ooky gooky snookie cookie bear he is, so I'm glad u feel the same!!! LMFAOOO i'm almost embarrassed to be saying it, but it's TRUE!!!

Anyway... this is straight facts. I can't think of anything better than Bakugo receiving affection. Just... him literally being so malleable for you? So receptive to your touch, loving when he sits between your legs so you can play with his hair and hug him from behind and smooch on his cheeks. Or when he gets home and you squeeze his face and call him your cute baby? Not even expecting anything back from him... but just hoping he enjoys it?

GODDDDDDD, and he does!!! I really don't think it would upset him (esp if it was all in private)... cuz it's all so genuine, you know? like... part of your natural attraction to each other, as even if it is a kind of babying... it's also just u telling him that u love him. and nothing feels better to him than... being loved by you.

but yeah. it's absolutely justified to want to wrap him up in a swaddle and carry him around with you if you could LOOOOL. Your handsome baby. Your snuggie wuggie, pickle pie. Your scrambled eggs🥺🥺🥺

#bakugo #he really gives me such bad cute aggression like i could TEAR HIM APART with how bad i just wanna love on him #and he wouldnt say it but he's an affection sponge #he probably doesnt even realize #esp when its not overly its all quiet and domestic but still sweet #he likes being loved he really does #and maybe im dumb but him being sooooo cold and then just glowing when u hold or k*ss him #not smiling but his vibes just get so... light his shoulder lift and his scowl softens #idk i cant even express it but #RAWWRRARRRR I THINK ABOUT IT ALL THE TIMEEE #actually HE'S my (our) teddy bear our cotton candy cloud our flower #sdjlkadsfja;lksdjfalsdfkladfakdsjfk i need be put on hospice #*insert that one picture of squidward sighing looking all ragged* #and maybe its just cuz ive had nice bakugo on my mind lately but JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!!! I KNOW HE'S SO SOFT FOR U #no offense i love my version of bakugo so much djajlksdfads #anyway ill leave before i end up exploding #but i hope i got what u meant anon!!! #and did this response alright #i feel like i just went nuts on the beat LOL #I also like the idea of calling him all those weird names too #especially cookie #and pickle pie #and bear #‘hey bear’ WAHHHHHHH #ask #anon #caitie things #queue
