#meet cutes don't happen

[gloriousmonsters]

velvette and valentino absolutely both have their own money, in excess, but will ask vox to buy them things partly because they like being spoiled and partly because they know vox is (secretly, he thinks) delighted by playing the exasperated guy who can be cajoled into buying you something just this once, but you'd better not try the puppy eyes and kisses again next time, it won't work! (it continues to work, always.) it makes him feel very masculine

#vox's kinks are: (a) electrosadism #(b) deeply psychologically rooted in his experience of pretending to be a Normal Masculine Man in the 50s-60s #and feeling like he failed and deep down he's still... inadequate #(val and vel have held meetings and sworn a pact to never tell him that he IS extremely cringe but they still like him) #(his ego would not survive the first part of that sentence and he's generally cuter when he's arrogant) #happy days in hell (hazbin tag) #the vees #poly vees #polyvees #i don't know whether we're using the space... but also #polyamorvee #continuing to try to make polyamorvee happen... it's so cute

very hung up on the first thing that mulder says about phoebe being "she was brilliant. i got in over my head. and, uh, paid the price."

#watching little sweet baby scully 3 months into her new job and new partnership #be appalled at her new cute work partner's mean ex-girlfriend #feeling like walter white screaming from his car trying to warn of danger approaching #dana!!! children weaned on poison consider harm a comfort!!!! #it gets so much worse!!!! #precursors to 5 years later and scully crying in her car telling mulder to just meet her at work because diana's with him #and she couldn't even walk in #'i got in over my head' #mr. black hole at the center of the universe #everything is his fault. everything is his failing. #even in that 'fire' scene where he says that he's just gonna help phoebe with ONE thing 'and then she's on her own' #and scully is instantly like uh huhhhh i don't see that happening #walter white screaming etc etc #txf.txt #fire #it just makes me so ill how that 1 week with phoebe signals exactly how the year they spend with diana will go. and scully has no idea. #she's only known him a few months. she just wants to help. she just wants people to be kind to him. #and then you blink and it's 5 years later and phoebe was 'brilliant' and diana is irreproachable and scully is 'making things personal'

Hey, hey hey I have a question: is it.. it is normal to still have a crush on somebody you met over a year ago and who you only really saw for a week?..

#like hnnng #like i met this girl i july 2022 #and i saw her for a week every day (cause it was in some summer camp) #and i Still think about her #regularly #ahhrhfh #like she's so cute!!! #what do i doooo? #and i know i could just ask her to meet up #but i'm scared okay?? #like what if i've been thinking up this whole romatinc thing of we finally meet again and it's all nice and we kiss or idk something #and then in reality that doesn't happen #or she's in a relationship or something #like i don't knowwww #she never posts stuff online so it's not like i could just go on her insta and see what she's up to #and like again i've only really met her for a week so she might be a totally different person now #rahhhhh #how does this stuff work #if one of my friends would be in a situation like this i would have great advice #i am struggling over here gjdgfhdvdh #halp #lea's random thoughts

#strays!au #thesa/thancred #x: together to the bitter end #trying to buy you all on my no-louisoix-meet-cute au were thancred mets her right after she leaves the forest #which is just basically balfran but make it ✨them✨ #thancred is still just a thief and they are literally partners in crime. that's it. they have fun stealing. for a bit. #I think louisoix exists he's just not in the picture so pretty canon divergence bc it's an au I don't want to think abt like idk #the specificities of what happened during the 7th umbral calamity LOL DON'T THINK ABT THIS LORE TOO DEEPLY. IGNORE THAN'S TATTOO AS WELL. #I'm just in full ffxii mood rn and I was like “thancred would wear balthier's rings” and scalated from there. #besides the point that ofc thesa/thancred is already too balfran coded. this time there just EXTRA balfran. #I just think they can have a little fun and steal from the rich. as a treat. #and I can have a little fun with gposing since I finished uni work early (2am) as a THREAT so YEAH HAVE AT IT. *throws them at you* #I need a name for this au that isn't balfran or robinwood. anyway. we will get there eventually. also I need to replay xii. oh well #wol posting #kelly says #will I also ever be brave enough to let my ship/wol posts open to rb? who knows #wc!au #(for now?? idk man I need to sleep.) #also extra info abt this photoset noone asked: 1. thesa slowly smiling as soon as he turns his back bc she usually does when hes not lookin #2. thancred always keeps his hand above his glasses if he's still drinking bc if anyone reconizes him chances are that they hate him and #and are trying to kill him. 3. thesa's lil ear tensing up when he touches her and then easing again once he let's go #also the place this was taken + the whole “hume” thing from xii makes me think if I don't want this au to be played on the first.... #like pre-calamity and all that. multiverse shit you know? hm.... i would like to met ardbert and friends heheh LETS SEE #obligatory: ASK ME ABT MY AUS HEYYY I'll go to bed now but... them. yeah them.

"Heheh, well... I couldn't help but to notice how enthusiastic you are when you are talking about your favorite book, Miss Furina! Ya sure like your novels, don't cha'?"

While not the most avid reader nor a loyal customer of the Yae Publishing House, Yoimiya just happened to had her own favorites among several collection of light novels that were displayed in front of the biggest Inazuman bookstore. Although admittedly, perhaps the Kamisato siblings would be the better people to talk to than her when it came to talking about novels.

After spending some time in Fontaine, she came to find out that the former Hydro Archon possessed a vastly different demeanor && temperament compared to her patron goddess. She was much more down-to-earth && amicable, not to mention, quite expressive when you got her to speak about her hobbies && interests! The enthusiasm was quite infectious, even to the outspoken Yoimiya herself.

"Mhm, well yes. Creating fireworks is both a job an' a passion of mine, so that's pretty natural." Of course, she had to agree with what she spoke of. "But yanno... I do actually like some novels too!" It was an opportunity for her to talk a little more about this other hobby of hers, something that she never really got a chance for.

"Do you know about the Princess Mina of the Fallen Nation novel series? I heard it's been making its ways to Fontaine since it's really popular in where I come from."

@myjustice // cont.

#myjustice #✾ ┆ yoimiya. ( ic text ) #hello! thank you for the answer! it's really cute ! #i hope this is ok to continue! #been wanting to interact with you! :") #i'm glad these two could meet -- i assume this happened after fontinalia? #also bear with me as i research about the princess mina books since i don't actually read them in-game :')

That’s her father, thank you very much.

#literally the entire thought behind this was (verbatim) #'what if Tuvok's kids were haters' #hehehe...he's LIKE a dad to you?? he /IS/ my dad. - Tuvok's kids #Asil wouldn't actually act like this she'd be like Pretty Women.....and be very gallant as is her way #also idk when/if I'm gonna draw or write this #but I've had this persistent scene in my head #wherein Tuvoks kids meet the Voyager crew upon their return to the quadrant #and Tom challenges Elieth to a drinking contest and Elieth accepts #he wins without much effort (but with a LOT of booze) and after Tom is like completely knocked out #Harry's like wow. I can't believe he forgot Vulcans don't get drunk off of human alcohol. #and Elieth's like 'Indeed.' #also while that's happening B'Elanna is worried that Asil is flirting with Seven and getting all in her head about this beautiful Vulcan #stealing her away but it turns out Asil isn't interested in Seven at all - she thinks B'Elanna is the cute one v_v (nothing comes off this) #bea art tag #st voyager #st voyager art #B'Elanna #Seven of Nine #Kes #Asil #[REDACTED] family shenanigans #also I don't really see a father-daughter relationship between Tuvok & B'Elanna/Seven nor do I find it particularly interesting #as having every relationship between Tuvok and another person being 'mentor-mentee' is boring & a bit reminiscent of the magical n trope #really the only person I see him in a consistent 'fatherly' or 'mentorship' role with is Kes #You could argue Janeway but I'll argue that when it's shown he's more her friend and advisor than a mentor to look up to + be taught by #I wrote about my ideal seven-tuvok and b'elanna-tuvok relationships here but it got SO long that it wouldn't let me put anymore tags RIP #HEHEHEHE

Hear me out: TimDami fic where Tim gets exposed to truth serum and absolutely books it whenever Damian so much as breathes near him

#Damian walking in: What happened Timothy? #Tim: *various muffled screams only held back by desperation and his hands over his mouth* #He can't help it! #He has no filter and feels kinda high and Damian looks really cute! #Anyway Tim self-isolating @the nest #Only for Damian to barge in like: You're avoiding me? Is this cause you don't trust me still? #And that could be the scene where everything gets resolved but I like the mental image of Tim locking himself into the bathroom #Putting the shower on so Damian doesn't hear all the whispered lovey dovey shit #But can very clearly hear Tim yelling at him to Get! Out! #Bonus Points if Jason was the one who found Tim #And Tim spent the whole ride back to the cave telling Jason about the MASSIVE crush Tim had #On the former Robin aka Jason #And going: You act tough but you're actually gooey inside #Like a marshmallow #Jason is NOT gonna let him live that down #TimDami #Unstoppable Force (Damian Stubbornness) #Meets Immovable Object (Tim's mortifying fear of being known intimately)

fic moodboard concept in honor of @merry-the-cookie birthday: the mashlum college au

growing up, Ashton always thought that if he's lucky enough he'll find the love of his life sooner or later, someone who would love him with all the good and bad that comes with him.

what he didn't expect was to find two of them.

at his fucking college.

those two came into his life in the form of one Michael Clifford, the cute guy from his illustration class he decided to take to broaden his horizons, and one Calum Hood, the hot football player who's also kind of a nerd and best friend since childhood of, you guessed it, that same Michael.

luckily for him, they both feel the same way.

#whoohooo guess who's birthday it is!!!!! here's my humble gift to you my friend #hey remember your college mashlum au. im sure you do. obviously I DO. always thinking about them yk? how could i not #they're just cute boyfriends who do boyfriends activities ok!!!!! obviously after all the angst they go through until they got together #cause they're fools who won't speak up #do they both like me???? YES YES THEY DO #love all around for these three #mike and ash are both art majors that's how they met correct? they bond over that and flirt over class #mike and cal are best friends since childhood and there was always a want for something more but afraid to fuck it up #cal and ash meet through mike and how can they not like each other they're already whipped #this all just. works. they work together <3 why have two when you can have THREE!!!! the more the merrier #mashton will go to all of cal's games cheer the loudest even when they don't understand what's happening they're just excited for their boy #mike and ash will draw a lot of all three of them. alonse and together and all sort of stuff #i can see calum pouting cause he wants to draw them too :( but that boy is not an Artist at all so the best he can do is stick figures #mashton loves it <3 they hang it on the fridge #ok teresa i hope you like this cause this is for u my friend i hope you have the vest day love you #gonna schedule this for midnight your time cause why not! #mashlum #5sos moodboard #teresa

thinking about my ghibli wizard wilbur.. i will ramble in the tags again;;

#wilbur is rumored to be quite dangerous since most non-magic people don't have a good understanding of wizards #and dream doesn't know any better so he is still apprehensive about wilbur despite seeking him out #but when he spends time with him and apprentice tommy in their 'castle' dream quickly realizes how gentle and kind wilbur is #he can be a bit of a mess (emotionally and also literally) but wilbur adores dream as soon as he meets him #and wants to show him all the wonderful things about his world of magic #tommy recognizes how lively and excited wilbur is when dream is around #so he tries to get dream to stay as long as possible but dream doesn't need much convincing #being whisked away from his mundane life by a charming wizard was the best thing that's ever happened to him #dream is having such a wonderful time he nearly forgets about his curse #but what he doesn't realize is the curse is being slowly lifted after every adventure with wilbur #he is learning to love and be loved unconditionally #and the strength and self confidence it gives him weakens the curse until eventually it disappears #i have also been thinking about their outfits.. i think wilbur would have one similar to howl at the beginning of the movie #because i adore that style #and dream would wear something like a sweater tucked into a long skirt with boots #because i think that would be very cute in this au #lots of scenes where they stand on beautiful flower hills...must have long skirt to flow in the breeze yesyes #ghibli au rambles

ike, in his dumbfuckest moment ever:

soren to ike literally one chapter prior:

ike, realizing that was just his dumbfuckest moment ever and backtracking as quick as possible and realizing he just screwed up his first meeting with the cute cat boy:

#DCB PoR Run #grabbed this off YT bc I accidentally clicked the button before I could get a Phone (tm) pic of one of them #but yeah. way to go Ike. that's gonna be a story for the history books of the great mercenary who slew a goddess #local man meets cute cat boy and screws up first meeting literally immediately #soren facepalms bc he literally told ike they were called laguz but ike in all his intellectual glory chose to go by shinon's example #suddenly greil realizes he should've educated ike on this topic before he let shinon get to it #shinon hasn't met the cute bird boy to change his mind yet ike you can't just take his word for this stuff yet #imagine ike and ranulf talking abt their first meeting one day years later #and ranulf is just like hey remember how we first met and you straight up asked if i was one of gallia's sub-humans with #the STRAIGHTEST face. and ike is like fffffffff don't remind me that happened #i feel like they could joke abt it bc they're basically like bffs by RD/during RD #but it'd just be so funny to see ranulf never letting him live that down bc it's so un-ike-like #but at the time ranulf didn't know that and was ABOUT TO GO on a tangent #tfw your first meeting with your bff was offending him on accident hfjsgjhs
