Really glad Spongebob is called "Spongebob Schwammkopf" in german, because if you translated Squarepants it would be "Quadrathosen". And trying to sing the german intro with "Quadrathosen" doesn't work, that a syllable to many.

Kinktober Day 1:"Let me see those eyes."
A/N:I'm so so sorry I'm late to my Kinktober start but here's the first one featuring our boy Simon Kelleher!It might be slow to post but I'm working hard I promise!Thank you all so much for the love and support you guys show me and my work!Enjoy and feel free to send in requests for certain characters!
Warnings:Minors DNI,18+,Smut
Pairing:Simon Kelleher x fem!Autistic!reader
Word Count:1.8k
As someone with autism, I struggled with eye contact a lot. I've been trying to get better at holding it for longer periods of time but nothing seemed to be working. I sigh in frustration as I scribble something down in my notepad. Janae looked over at me and tilted her head to the side, tapping my notepad with the eraser of her pencil a couple times to get my attention. "You okay? You seem frustrated. Like more than usual." I take a deep breath through my nose as I look up at her and try to look at her eyes. I manage it for a few seconds but it doesn't last long. She quickly notices and I can see the sad smile on her face as she drums her pencil on her desk. "Hey, it's okay. You'll get the hang of it at some point and even if you don't, it doesn't matter. You don't need to push yourself too hard, okay?" I chew on the end of my pencil as I stare down at the notepad, slightly rocking back and forth. My eyes flit across the paper as I try to focus on my homework but my mind is wandering elsewhere. I'm completely understimulated and I can't make myself focus on German grammar and pronunciation like this. The only sounds filling my ears are the soft scratching of my fingers against my nails as I pick at them and Janae's gentle tapping of her pencil against paper. I chew at my bottom lip and pick at my nails in rhythm with Janae's tapping until a hand grabbing mine and spreading out my fingers to stop me from picking at my nails grabs my attention. I look up at my eyes melt instantly at the sight of familiar cool brown eyes. I smile softly before averting my gaze. My hand sits in his as he takes a seat across from Janae, next to me. His hand was warm and slightly calloused from all the hours spent learning different instruments on a whim. I smile and relish in the familiar and comfortable sensation. Simon is my person. Hopefully my forever person. He squeezed my hand softly before leaning over to whisper in my ear. "Hey, you seem frustrated. You wanna get out of here? Take a break?" I think he sees the thankful look in my eyes before I even connect them to his while nodding because he grabs my bag for me and looks to Janae. "We're gonna go get some air. We'll see you later." Janae just rolls her eyes and flips the page of her notepad before waving goodbye, not looking up. His hand never leaves mine as I keep my eyes on the ground in front of me while we walk, watching my shoes move forward mostly.
The light of the sunshine makes my eyes sting before Simon pulls his hand away and slips his sunglasses over my eyes. I sigh contentedly at the relief from the harsh light on my eyes. He takes my hand once again and leads me off campus to his car, a cute little bug. Simon adores that car almost more than he adores me. He opens the passenger door for me just as he does every morning before school when he picks me up. I set my bag down in the floorboard and climb in, flipping down the visor to block out the sun. He hands me my headphones when he sits down and I place them over my ears. I can still hear him speak but I can't hear any of the noise outside of traffic or kids laughing. I lean my head back on the headrest as Simon starts the car and pulls out of the parking lot. His arm reaches behind my headrest as he turns to look behind him. After he puts the car in drive he places his hand on my upper thigh which is exposed by my checkered skirt. His hand has a slight reassuring grip on my thigh as he drives. To where, I'm not sure. I've found it more comforting in all the time I've known Simon to not ask too many questions. Eventually we pull into his driveway and he unbuckles my seat belt for me. He comes around the car, opening my door for me and grabbing my bag before lacing my fingers with his and leading me inside. His mom is at the office today and his dad is out golfing like usual. He leads me up the stairs and into his room which is surprisingly clean for a teenage boy. He sets my bag down as I take a seat in his desk chair after discarding my shoes by the door. My knees are pressed together and I'm just staring off into the distance when he comes over, kneeling down in front of me. He tilts my chin up so I can look him in the face. My eyes avert to the side almost immediately when he sighs before smiling softly in my peripherals. "Well, I think I know how to fix this."
I look at him with a confused expression when he picks me up and my legs wrap around his waist. I squeal before clinging to him. I have a fear of my feet leaving the ground and Simon knows this. I bury my face in his neck as he walks over to his bed, setting me down. He crawls over me before taking my wrists and pinning them above my head, lacing his fingers in mine to hold them there. I can only manage to look at his mouth as he speaks. "Now, we're gonna try something okay? You know the safe word. Say it for me, pretty girl." I lick my lips as my eyes very briefly meet his as I speak. "Down." He smiles at me and nods before leaning down to trail kisses up my neck and kissing my jaw. He reaches my ear and whispers, "That's right. Now you're gonna be a good girl for me, yeah?" I can only manage a nod as my breathing becomes shallow as I take in the sensations he's leaving all across my skin. He kisses up my jaw and places kisses all over my cheeks and my nose before finally connecting our lips. His lips are soft and sweet. He always tastes like mint and candy. I moan quietly against his lips as he lets go of my right wrist just to hold both of them in his one hand so he can move the other down my body. He slides his hand across my thigh and up my skirt. He pulls away leaving my lips slightly swollen and kiss bruised. He pulls away and smiles down at me devilishly like he always does in these moments before pulling my skirt up, letting go of my wrists. He moves down and slides his fingers over my clothed heat. I bite my lip and whimper. His warm breath meets the wet spot on my panties sending a shiver down my spine causing me to arch my back slightly. This does not go unnoticed by Simon and I can almost feel the grin on his face as he places a kiss to my clit through my pastel purple thong. He hooks a finger in my underwear on each side before sliding it down my plush thighs and tossing it across the room to be found by their maid sometime later. He places a hand on each of my thighs firmly before spreading my legs and getting comfortable. Simon kisses up my inner thighs before placing a kiss to my clit and dragging his tongue up my entrance, tasting the mess he's caused. I gasp as he sucks my clit harshly into his mouth making my back arch. My hands fly into his soft dark hair and tug as he continues his attack on my sensitive bundle of nerves. The noises falling from my mouth are down right sinful as he eats me out like it's his last meal. My eyes are shut tight as my teeth sink into my bottom lip so harsh I'm almost certain it'll start bleeding. It doesn't take much longer for the knot in my stomach to untie and a whine of ecstasy to leak out of my throat.
He licks up every last drop and comes up for air only a moment later, wiping his face. He strips himself of his jeans and pulls off his shirt, tossing both aside while kicking off his underwear. He crawls over me once again, lining himself up at my entrance before grabbing my hand, placing it on his cheek and kissing my palm. This was almost a ritualistic action. He does it every time before he stretches me out on his cock. Inch by inch, his dick fills me up and a breathless gasping sound escapes me. Simon wasn't small by any means. How does that song go? Right.
'It might not look like he gets bitches but honey that dick was 11 inches.'
My eyes water slightly and Simon kisses my tears away, letting me adjust. After I nod, I expect him to move but he doesn't. "It's okay. You can move now." My eyes are still shut when I feel his hands on my face causing me to open my eyes and look at his throat. "I'll move but you have to keep your eyes up here. Every time you look away I'll stop." My eyes widen. I get it now. I nod but my eyes are still on his throat. He thrusts deep and hard inside me. "What did I just say?" I make eye contact and his face is so kind and sincere that I can't help but keep my eyes on his before he starts moving, his thrusts soft and sweet before picking up pace. I feel my eyes fall shut before he abruptly stops. My eyes snap open and he smirks. "What? You thought I was joking?" He snaps his hips into mine to punctuate his point.
"Let me see those eyes, pretty girl."
My eyes stay attached to his as he thrusts roughly in and out of me. My fingernails sink into his back as I whine and moan, all but screaming out his name like he was some holy deity. His thrusts begin to get sloppy as my cunt clenches around him before butterfly fluttering in orgasm. His eyes never stray from mine and I feel my heart race. This is the longest I've ever held someone's gaze and my cheeks get warm with the realization. I feel his hips stutter as his cheeks flush while he fills me to the brim with his seed, holding his position with his cock fully sheathed inside me to the hilt. His thumb strokes my cheek as he moves to kiss my forehead. He slowly pulls out but not before he quietly whispers an 'I love you so much, princess.'

Disability Aid Databases
Hey!
So. Originally this was going to just be a quick little post where I shared four databases I've found that really help me when it comes to updating my resource. However! In doing that, I discovered more??
These are essentially sites that collect a big list of different disability aid suppliers, specialists and support services across different countries and continents and then list them all for easy access.
And now I'm listing them here so you can access them! 😁[grinning face emoji]
-
Assistive Technology Australia: Australian Database Personally, I quite like the little pictures they use for their categories. I think it's quite well organised, although it took a little while to get used to. This site is in English.
Canadian Disability Resource Society: Canadian Database I found this site just a little harder to use than some of the others, but after playing around a bit I got the hang of it. I like that you can search by specific keywords and postcodes. I think the contact details are also very clear, and there is an online chat function if you run into any issues. There are extensive language choices for this site.
Disability Info South Africa: South African Database Just going to put a quick warning for potential eye strain and/or flashing lights here as there's a moving graphic on the home page. However, I really like the fact you can change the font size and contrast of the page. I do think the site is a bit wordy but it's so good; there's a lot of information and advice on here once you know where to look. This site is in English.
EASTIN: European Database This might be a bit difficult to use at first, but the search function on this site is so specific it's honestly incredible. It acts as a big data hub for disability aid databases across Europe. Also, there are extensive language options for this site, including mostly European languages, Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese and Thai!
Handicat: French Database Again, I like the little pictures for the categories. It gives a good visual representation of each area before you've even read the category title. There's also a little tool that lets you search by trade name, the type of product and the manufacturer. This page is in French.
Hjælpemiddelbasen: Danish Database Or, AssistData. This site lets you search for disability aids by purpose/classification and target group (i.e. disability). It also offers guides on choosing and maintaining different items. I like that the search function also has the option to include discontinued items. You can change the language of this site to either English or Dansk.
Living Made Easy: UK Database Or, the Disability Living Foundation. This was actually the first one I found. The organisation system isn't as specific as some of the others but I quite like that everything is still separated by category, and it's not too overwhelming. This site is in English.
REHADAT: German Database I really like the organisation of this site, but I'm going to put a warning for potential eye strain here as some of the blue graphics are a bit faded and hard to see despite the dark background. As well as assistive technology, this site also offers information on things like disability law, education, employment and financial advice, and addresses and contacts for additional support services. You can change the language of this site to either English or Deutsch.
SIVA: Italian Database I think this site is a little confusing, but I like the guided search and advanced search functions. You can really get down into the specifics of what you're looking for. You can change the language of this site to either English or Italian.
-
Unfortunately, there were a couple of extra databases that I couldn't access, but if I find any others then I will update this post.
Let me know if there's anything you want me to add/change!

Castlevania Language Headcanons
Tumblr media
I spoke about language in Castlevania before. Like most media the series mostly just shrugs off the entire language barrier. People are just magically able to communicate. No matter from how far apart they actually are.
But personally I find it interesting to think about what languages the characters realistically would have spoken or been able to speak.
Trevor would probably mostly just know Romanescu (old Common Romanian). A language I might note that is a bit different than modern day Romanian, as it had a lot more slavic bits in there, than the modern language does. He might also have known bits and pieces of old Hungarian and Common Turkish, given the political situation at the time. Though I kinda doubt he would've been fluent. I do assume that his family once upon a time would have taught him Latin and Ancient Greek, but I doubt he would remember a lot of that.
Alucard meanwhile would probably know at least the ancient languages. I see Dracula as very intrested in teach him. So, I got to assume that Alucard will know Romanescu, Latin, Ancient Greek, but probably French, Hungarian, Turkish and maybe some Arabic as well.
Sypha seems to canonically just know all the languages. Given the effort was made to cast her with an Hispanic actress and having her speak with a Spanish accent, I assume Spanish is her mother tongue, but she clearly also speaks Romanescu and seems to at least be able to read a write a plethora of ancient languages. Given the fact she has travelled a lot, I will also just assume that she knows a lot of current languages at the time. Probably enough to understand most languages spoken in Europe.
It do assume the trio will use Romanescu to communicate with each other.
Tumblr media
Assuming that Dracula is in this timeline still Mathias from France, he will speak Old French, though the question remains whether he understands the Middle French spoken at the ime the series takes place. I do assume though. Given his entire think with knowledge and his almost obsessive collection of it, I just am going to assume he has learned a lot of languages throughout his life, probably being able to at least understand most languages spoken throughout Europe and Asia.
Lisa probably only knows Romanescu, when she arrives at the castle. Maybe some Latin, if she had tried to learn some medicine before. I am going to assume, though, that Vlad is gonna do some work polishing her Latin and Greek at least.
Still assuming, though, that they are going to hold most conversations in Romanescu.
Tumblr media
Hector and Isaac are a bit more complicated, of course. Because we know little about them.
It stands to reason, that Hector's mother tongue is Greek (given he grew up on Rhodes) and Isaac's is Arabic. Given he has probably consumed quite a lot of ancient texts and texts about alchemy, I think Hector will at least be able to read and write in old Greek and Latin. I also am going to assume that under Dracula he learned some Romanescu? He might also know some Turkish, given that during his childhood Rhodes was under Turkish control.
Isaac is a bit more complicated, because canonically we do not really know where he got enslaved and what not. In my headcanon I went with him being dragged all the way up to Italy, so he speaks Italian. Given he was a slave in a monastery and tried to help, I assume he knows Latin as well (and quite frankly, learning Latin, when you know medieval Italian is not that hard). I have him end up in Greece, due to the ongoing conflict with the Ottoman Empire, after he escapes. Hence, he speaks Greek as well.
Meaning that in all my Isaactor stuff, the two communicate a lot in Greek.
Given they end up in Austria, though, they do learn German soon enough. Speaking of which...
Tumblr media
The sisters are interesting in regards to their lannguages.
Now, Carmilla very probably is from Austria and always has been from there, so she would speak Old High German as her mother tongue. Given she was a vampire for a while, she probably learned a few languages, though. I gotta assume she knows Latin at least, especially given that at the time Latin was kinda the official language of politics in many regards. I am gonna assume she knows at least some Italian, Old French and Hungarian, too.
As I explained before: I assume that Lenore originates in Scotland. But given she was taken from her family as a child, she knows very little in terms of Scottish Gaelic and for the most part her mother tongue is old English. Given she was nobility, she has learned Latin, too. She also is the diplomat of the group, so I gotta assume she knows quite a few other languages as well, just to keep up her position. Very certainly Romanescu, too, given it is Vlad's main spoken language and he seems to be the big boss of vampires.
Morana, of course... Honestly, I am just gonna assume she knows all the languages. The woman is more than a millennium old. Depending on whom you ask even older than two millennia. She had the time to travel. She knows all the ancient languages for certain and if she knows Akkadian, Persian and Phoenician the other languages springing from that will be easy. I have her travelling Asia, too, so she kows at least Hindi, Chinese and Japanese as well.
Striga is a bit more interesting. She speaks with a Slavic Accent and her voice actress is from Croatia. Which made me put Striga there, too. She has to have travelled a bit. And of course she will probably speak Old High German with the sisters. I kinda want her to have learned old Akkadian to speak that language with Morana. Because that would be sweet.
I am going to assume that in everyday life the sisters speak Old High German with each other.
I am also going to assume that Lenore, to woe Hector, is gonna speak Greek with him.

20 questions for fic writers
I got tagged by @nocompromise-noregrets to answer questions about my fic, yay! Thank you, friend!
1. How many works do you have on Ao3?
49
2. What’s your total Ao3 word count?
610,514
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Right now just OFMD.
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
The Heart Asks Pleasure First (Captain America (Movies)), 886 Kudos
Leggy Blonde, you got it goin' on (Our Flag Means Death (TV)), 640 Kudos
If my Heart was a House (Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling), 612 Kudos
Uphill Both Ways in 5 Feet of Snow (Captain America (Movies)), 510 Kudos
Morning, Moon and Knight (Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling), 401 Kudos
…To be clear, this doesn’t really say anything useful. The CA fics have been accumulating kudos for almost 10 years and the HP fics for just about as long (and they were originally published to LJ and only moved to AO3 later), while Leggy Blonde has been up for less than 2 years. So ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ make of that what you will.
5. Do you respond to comments?
Yes, always. It may take me a bit, but look, if someone takes time to comment on my work I feel compelled to at least say thank you. The joy is in the moment of interaction, not in the hoarding of praise.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Probably The Fall of the House of Black. If you read the epilogue, that is.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Most if not all of my fics end happily and there’s a bunch that are mostly fun and fluff. But only Heartwood ends with a wedding. 😛
8. Do you get hate on fics?
No. I got one (1) terfy comment and one that was a bit douchey once, but I don’t think I have the reach to attract actual hate. Or I’ve gotten lucky so far, idk.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
For a long time I didn’t because I didn’t enjoy writing it. I’ve come to be a little more open to experimenting with it in recent years, occasionally challenged myself to lean into it a bit more, and I guess it feels like less of a bother now even if it’s still not my forte. So some of my stuff is either more softcore, or just completely smut-free.
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
No. I only enjoy crossover scenarios when they happen spontaneously when chatting with friends in an unhinged “yes, and” arms race towards the most ludicrous possible outcome. I have no interest in crossover fanfic, neither reading nor writing it.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
No. But back in the 2000s I translated my first couple of fanfics that I wrote in a German speaking forum into English when I moved to a different space within the same fandom.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
@greaseonmymouth and I collaborated on a fanwork for a now extinct fandom in… 2009 or so? It was a true marvel, a thing of beauty, a magnificent stroke of genius. It is no longer associated with either of our names. But part of me still thinks I peaked there.
14. What’s your all time favorite ship?
Johnsquared. Quite possibly.
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
Unghhh the epic Cjizzy metal band AU. The epic eat pray love Johnsquared. I want to finish them so badly. I really do. But maybe I love them both too hard.
16. What are your writing strengths?
I’m really good and efficient at setups, outlines, and occasionally very funny with dialogue.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Writing sincere endings that I don’t hate.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
Idk man. Look. It depends. What are you trying to do here? Does a character canonically codeswitch? Fair. But do you speak the language in question or is it just gonna be basic tourist speak? Do you just wanna flex that you know languages that your readers might have to look up? Are you smug that you used google translate? Are you using other languages consistently throughout the fic in all instances, or are you just marking out one character as the non-native speaker? For a bit of ~local/ethnic flavour?
What I’m saying is “it’s complicated.”
Also. Eh. Idk. I wouldn’t do it in my own fic. I have seen some godawful incorrect German in fanfic that clearly came from google translate and that no native speaker would ever utter and I always wonder what the purpose of that is supposed to be. At times it’s jarring my incompatible within a limited narrator’s perspective. Obviously everyone can do whatever the hell they want in their own fic. I just don’t get the why of it most of the time I see it and I wonder if the writer ever bothered to ask themselves “why am I doing this?”
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Officially, on the internet? [redacted]
Before I knew fanfic on the internet was a thing? Star Wars
20. Favourite fic you’ve written?
Oh man, I can’t choose. Funnily, none of my top 5 kudosed fics would make the shortlist. But 5 that I’m very very fond of and that I really enjoyed the writing process of are:
Won from the void and formless infinite (Taboo, Godfrey/Cholmondeley M/F) 40 Kudos
The doubts that have surrounded me (OFMD, cjizzy F/F) 65 Kudos
Only by the Grace of the Sea (OFMD, Ed/Stede M/M) 270 Kudos
You, who stole my solitude (WWDITS, Vianton M/M) 155 Kudos
Something Brewing in the Discourses (JSAMN, Gatcombe/Tantony M/M) 10 Kudos
(Adding a kudos count to re-emphasise the point that they are a terrible metric for judging or comparing anything.)
I’m tagging… uhhh @greaseonmymouth @pudentilla @thebeautifulsoup and @emmyllou if you should happen to be in the mood.

Tag Game
Tag 9 people you want to get to know better. I was tagged by @hayffiebird Thank you c:
Three ships:
Virgilia/Plutarch. I know, a bit cliche to put my own ship forth here, but I'm noticing how much less of a shipper I've become insofar that I've more lukewarm takes on most ships, but this is one I'm really passionate about. It really (obviously) encompasses a lot of what I personally enjoy in seeing a relationship unfold. Virgilia has her own personal journey that fits well with Plutarch's. They complement each other so well and it's enjoyable to write / think about them :>
David Butt/Julia Montague. Those two are from the BBC series Bodyguard and they are such an interesting couple. There's hatred initially, each of their moments bringing them closer, and the final resolution of their story (the question of being together) never finding an answer. The show has its own problems with the portrayal of Muslim characters, and tbf whenever I rewatch it I only watch the first three episodes, but it has a sort of tension and development that I've really never seen replicated. I'm a sucker for bodyguard stuff, but none ever did it as well as this show, and most of those stories are far too smutty, far too overprotective, far too easily and quickly resolve (and me and @beedelia totally have a Plutarch&V AU based on those two).
This is NOT a ROMANTIC ship (hence the &), but I love PLATONIC stuff so much, so: Ellie Williams&Joel Miller. I really, fully, enjoy their growth together. I love a good parenting platonic not-actually-related situation. Their story is so raw. It's the way that their relationship is painted through struggles. It's the going through everything to keep their dad/their daughter safe. I love their journey and I love both games so much.
This was really hard because, as I said, I've got plenty of ships and I feel rather lukewarm about them. As in, yeah, I enjoyed this, but it doesn't have my mind spinning once I finish it and am done with the show/game. Here's a list of some ships I enjoy, but do not have a lot to say about: F!Commander Shepard/Miranda Lawson (Mass Effect), Cullen Rutherford/F!Inquisitor (Dragon Age), Will Graham/Bedelia Du Maurier (Hannibal), Serena Joy/Mark Tuello (Handmaid's Tale), Blackbeard/Stede Bonnet (Our Flag Means Death), Newt Scamander/Leta Lestrange (Fantastic Beasts). Was this cheating? Maybe, lol.
First ever ship:
I think my first ever ship was Captain Amelia/Dr. Doppler, mostly because I was very gay for Amelia and was excited for any romance interest she got. Like, it should have been me, but this was second best. I didn't write fanfiction about it or anything because I was far too young, but I think this was the first moment where I really shipped something.
First time I engaged with fandom might have been Remus Lupin/Tonks. Though I mostly read stuff rather than wrote anything.
First time I wrote something (in rp) was Haymitch/Effie, though I don't ship them anymore--same as Lupin and Tonks actually lol. Both for different reasons.
Last song: Bottom of the River by Delta Rae. Been listening to this one while writing!
Last movie: Everything Everywhere All At Once. I've had this on my watchlist since release and finally got around to it. Feels like something you should totally watch a second time. It was a brilliant movie.
Currently reading: A secret history. I'm not sure what to think of it yet & I'm halfway through. It's definitely interesting, but it's a very slow read (or maybe me mostly reading it in bed before falling asleep just doesn't read very fast).
Currently watching: Arctic Warrior. It's a German TV show about one (military) expert and one beginner having to survive (and travel through) the arctic parts of Finland. I usually don't enjoy those kind of shows, but I have a soft spot for Otto + watching it as an uncut reaction video from a favourite youtuber of mine is double fun. Actual tv series though, I want to start Succession (thanks Emily, lol) and/or Yellowjackets.
Currently consuming: I ate my salad + slice of bread for the evening :>
Currently craving: Still a bit hungry, so maybe some fruit later. I've got mango and peaches at home :)
Tagging: @beedelia @footnoteinhistory @plvtarch @mrsalanavalentine @rosegardeninwinter @ellanainthetardis @endlessnightlock @tinyfrenchowl @mollywog @districtunrest @bexbaxx @thegoddessprose @jenniferiawrence

hi your matchups say they're still open, i hope this it okkk!! i'm 🐇
• i have no preference towards gender but i don't like super masculine characters
• i don't really use pronouns but she/her, ver/vers, it/its are ok. fem presenting but with androgynous swag. beautiful in a girlprince way
• adult character from genshin! only recently turned 18 though haha. no tighnari or childe pls!
• i loove fashion (designing it, studying it, wearing it), idols, rabbits and deer, sewing outfits + plush dolls and creaching around at night. i haate loud, messy people and lots of textures (i'm autistic). i hate the sunlight! terrified of dogs IRL but i'd be a collie or black german shepherd.
• i'm mostly quiet (INTP), i have no control over my tone/filter so i get people saying they thought i hate them/i look angry a lot. air-headed, very low attention-span and "bimbo" tier. clumsy most of time/i dont look at what im doing. i love acting valley girl or like a malnourished bimbo (idk). i'm like a dog with the personality of a cat. beliefs.. don't be a freak idk .. don't kill ppl and i will be judgmental if i don't like your vibes.
• i think i'd have electro vision just because i get it a lot on quizzes. i also connect to it the most aesthetically. id love a sword and id have a vv elegant/pretty fighting style ..
• personal flaw erm there's zero connection between my brain and mouth so i can't really communicate much of my real feelings (esp affection). i also struggle to connect with ppl!! i'm mostly disconnected 90% of the time so it's very hard to truly love (romantically or platonically) someone for me!
• i'm 162cm... vampire to the extreme i'm 100% a vampire if im in genshin.. very strict on skincare and how i look (sensitivity issues). OR half-deer.. or half-rabbit.. My personal aesthetic is ouji/lolita, victorian/gothic themes of Black Butler and The girl from the other side.. Dark fantasy/dark academia.. LOL
i'm TERRIBLE at giving affection and words of affirmation. i love words of affirmation though and i realllly jus want someone equally as love with me/if not more
Hello 🐇, nice to meet you!! Your matchup was challenging because I kept doubting my choices, thinking, "Wouldn't this or that character's design be a texture/sensory nightmare, though??" which is a really silly thing for me to get caught up in, of all the many factors involved. (But in my defense, all the characters have SO MUCH going on in their outfits haha!!)
Tumblr media
Your matchup is.............................
Tumblr media
KAZUHA !!
Meeting under the cloak of darkness once or twice could merely be considered coincidence... By the fifth time, however, Kazuha was certain: it was fate that continued to bring the two of you together.
To those unfamiliar with the elusive duo, a relationship such as yours might seem threadbare - after all, since you only made your appearance when the moon was at its highest, and Kazuha drifted from place to place like a leaf in the wind, it seemed unlikely that you would ever cross paths in important ways. But you both knew differently. Naturally, even the smallest of actions, a singular drop in a pool of water, becomes a ripple whose rings inevitably grow in meaningful ways.
This is how Kazuha views your relationship: subtle, and all the more beautiful for it.
Fun details:
It will not take too many meetings for Kazuha to find you endearing. He's observant, so the nuances of your interactions will linger in his mind long after you've left. He'll enjoy learning about you and your mannerisms! He will always be respectful of your boundaries, too - and with his sharp mind, he can often tell if you're bothered without you having to verbalize it. (He'll ask, anyways, though, just to be sure.)
Kazuha admires your abilities and passion in subjects you enjoy. Many of the evenings you spend beneath the moonlight or on cloudy days are filled with discussions that jump from topic to topic, sharing your interests with one another. Kazuha is an eager listener, so feel free to share your passions to your heart's content! He will remember most every word. But when you're feeling quiet or have nothing to share, he can fill the silence with his charming words - though quiet companionship is also enough, too.
Of course, he knows how clumsy you can be, but as long as he's around, the wind will keep you steady on your feet. If you're comfortable with physical touch, he'll reach out to balance you, or let you hold onto him. If not, he'll do his best to verbally warn you of any uneven terrain or obstacles in your path you haven't noticed.
You two are THE definition of elegance in battle. Kazuha can swirl your electro abilities, making potent reactions. And as sword users, you can both keep your skills sharp by practicing together!
If you ever give Kazuha one of your creations, it will almost instantly become one of his most treasured posessions. He will do his best to keep it safe from harm on his journeys - though the wear and tear clothing might get from constant use is, in a way, a sign of how much he loves it. (Please forgive him if the clothes or plushies do see some light damage, though; the mercenary life is not always kind.)
Once you've become closer, Kazuha will bring you gifts from his travels. They're mostly small things that remind him of you: a carving of a rabbit, some medicine for your most recent clumsy tumble's resulting scratches, a paper umbrella from Liyue to help block out the sun. Whatever he sees that he thinks would interest you or that you might find use for in your day-to-day life, he'll get. If you dislike any of them, he takes no offense to that, either - he'll quietly store the details of what you disliked about it in his mind for reference the next time he gets you something.
You want words of affirmation? Oh, boy, does he provide! It's actually rarer for him to not slip a compliment or reassurance into your conversations. He'll take any chance he can to remind you of how much he treasures your company, and should you decide to pursue a romantic relationship with him, how much he delights in giving you affection (and being the recipient of yours, in whatever ways you deign to give it.)
He will write the most stunning of poems with you in mind, string dozens of haikus together with your name as inspiration. And, in the quiet company of only you and the moon, he'll whisper words of devotion, of loyalty and hope.
Kazuha, if asked to point to the one thing he loves most about you, will laugh at the inquiry, shaking his head. How can one point to a cloud in the sky and call it superior to the others around it? Kazuha thinks all of the things that make you unique are inseparably what he loves you for. To ask him to pick one is to ask the impossible of him. Still, if it was you who pressed him for an answer, he might relent, and tell you this: your very presence, right here beside him under the nighttime tapestry of midnight blue and flickering stars, gives him a sense of belonging, makes him think that - yes - there are things far greater than a life of wandering... and they can all be found within the depths of your eyes.
Tumblr media
~~I feel like many writers default to Albedo when someone mentions difficulty expressing emotions, and while I do love him for you too (for other reasons), I thought Kazuha would be better with words of affirmation and understanding what you may leave unspoken. I almost went with Rosaria or Yelan, also, as you both could be creatures of the night together (lol), but I hope this matchup is satisfactory!

Da bin ich wieder 🙃 Wenn du noch Lust hast:
3, 51, 56, 67 („Queerschläger“)
Boah, hab ich gerade eine halbe Ewigkeit gebraucht, um diese Frage wieder zu finden, ich sollte dann nachher ins Bett gehen 😅
Aber klaro, hab mega Lust drauf und immer wieder gerne 🥰❤️ Here we go again 🙂🙃✌🏼
3. Do you share your fic ideas, or do you keep them to yourself?
For the majority of my life I have kept them to myself. Just wrote them down to get rid of them and clear my head. And eventually I had stopped writing for quite sometime.
But since seeing german crime show "Tatort" episode "Schattenleben" in July this year with currently my most favourite tv character Julia Grosz sparked something in me and I started writing again. And even uploaded it on AO3, scary as hell 🙈. So far, that journey continues and its a lot of fun 🥰❤️. For WIP's and ideas that I have mostly planned out but not yet shared, I find it really hard to not spill or spoil anything 😅😂🤭. I'm just so excited to upload new stuff and maybe see/hear what readers might feel or think about it.
51. Does what you like to write differ from what you like to read?
No, not really. In general, I like all things related to Julia Grosz and Tine Geissler. Then it can all vary from fluff to humor to crime to angst fics. In my writings, I try to find a nice mix of it all. So far I found my hang with some angsty/suspensy and emotional writing, that I like and enjoy to read very much 😊😅.
56. Are there any fics that you would change or rewrite if given the chance?
As I tend to polish stories or chapters up anyway after publishing it, yes, all of them at one point 😅🙈. But after that, no, then I stick with the versions published.
That said, I'm a bit torn about the thought or lets say I think about writing maybe a version of "Last Chance" that stays closer to Julia Grosz original family backstory ... I haven't come to a decision yet though ... and how I would do that in the end ... but I have found myself thinking about that once in a while.
Would be interesting (from a readers point of view) to know if someone would be interested in that or if LC should just stay the way it is 😊 I'm not sure how, especially chapter 4, was taken by the readers, given the fact that I strayed so much from Julias original backstory. At the beginning I didn't really gave it much thought and didn't know much of her history than was known by what was shown of Julia through the episodes.
So I just thought for the story and since I wanted to also share another story that concentrates completely on the episodes and mostly canon facts, I just came up with her backstory on my own.
After I wrote and uploaded chapter 4 though I found an interview with FW where she said Julia grew up only with her father. So ever since then I'm wondering if LC would be different had I known that fact before, had I changed anything or something differently, had I stayed closer to that and would that change anything about LC. Or maybe I'm just really overthinking that way too much 😅😊.
67. If a fic was titled "Queerschläger", what would this story be about/how would you write it?
Phew, erm, nice of you to put further hints and ideas in my head. As if I hadn't yet enough of them. Without any particular ideas it's a bit hard to tell.
The way I know myself though, it would absolutely be a Tinia story, I would probably make it a bit of a fluff and humour one. About them meeting, spending time together, finding their way to each other. And bring in Falke just to mix it up a bit. And let him team up with Tine "against" Julia just to annoy her a bit more 😅 (I might have to come back to you about this questions when I had time to give it more thought 😅).
Oooor, in another universe, when Falke somehow somewhen has to retire, I would team up Julia with another young female superintendant with skills in profiling and forensics, who is also queer and who really likes to tease her with Tine (because in her heart she is a really big fan of Tinia herself 😅😂). The title would definitely be appropriate then ✌🏼.
(Well, whatever version, that screams for a story with exactly that title, doesn't it 😅🙈?)
Like always, that was really much fun 🙃🙂❤️ If you're not tired of this and your interested in some of the still unanswered questions feel free to ask some more 😊
I'm going to pick some new ones too soon 🙂
For now, have a wobderful sunday sind read you soon 🥰❤️

Empathy
Oftentimes I overhear conversations that have me wondering: How can someone be so tone-deaf and not aware of how harmful ones words can be? Sitting in classes and overhearing classmates use conditions like ADHD, autism, down-syndrome and others as insults (all of these are very different, but what they do have in common is that they shouldn't be used as terms to toss around and call one another when someone does something "dumb" or "goofy"). That is ignoring all the other remarks deemed "jokes", which I'll get to. It's become so common to hear in the hallways, classrooms, & the aula. Though, one particular instance sticks with me more than the others.
It was last period on a friday, chemistry. All were packing up. Class was almost over. A classmate (Just a little backround: He's the only other person in my class that recieves accommodations for dyslexia, or an accommodation. We both recieve extra time on exams. I will be calling him G so it's easier to keep track of who's who) was chatting to one of his friends (A) about how he had a sort of therapy that day after school and how it was benifitting him in improving writing through weekly sessions. I wasn't paying much attention initially. The friend of his whom he was speaking to sits next to me in that particular class, so it was hard not to catch some of the conversation. At some point a third joined the conversation (H). My memory is somewhat out of order because this was last week or even 2 weeks ago, I can't recall. Anyway, somehow ADHD came up. Now I was paying attention (for once in my life lol). A and G were mentioning how H bounces his leg, cracking jokes and such. Not uncommon for that group of friends, they constantly joke like that. At one point G randomly asked his pals if ADHD were genetic (the reason I'm not putting quotes is because, one, I don't remember the exact dialogue, and two, their conversation was in german). A replied saying no. First of all, that is not true. I know for a fact A hasn't done any of the research, he doesn't care to. It's not as if he should, but if he's going to answer a question about something he knows nothing about he might aswell know what the condition even is all about. I mean, during my first trip to the Praxis one of the first things I learned is that oftentimes it is infact genetic. That knowledge is a mere google-search away. A went on to say: "ADHS ist ein Mythos (ADHD is a myth)," he was mostly serious as he spoke. A has been someone who doesn't think before he speaks as long as I've known him, so 3 years maybe? Longer? Craziest thing I've heard him say is when he joked that it was my friends fault her father died. He wasn't being serious, but it genuinly hurt her, she straight told him not to say that, but he clearly wasn't actually apologetic as he said sorry. Classmate sitting next to G interrupted (M) and she argued that a girl in our grade and her mother both have ADHD. A & G chuckle that she's weird anyway, it doesn't count. G jokingly asks if it's contagious. If it's a virus. After he said those things I tried to tune them all out. It hurts to hear. I go home and I have my dad in my ear telling me that it doesn't exist. I go to school and hear the same thing. I open the Whatsapp classchat and see even awfuller words. Now I think of a brief conversation I had with a teacher of mine. He chatted to me about how there's less stigma now (context: Near beginning of the year I wrote a french test where I forgot to mention to the teacher that I get a few minutes extra. I don't remember how, but he & I ended up talking about ADHD after one history period, I think I may have brought it up after he asked me how I was doing or smth, idk. For the sake of not oversharing too much I wont go into detail about what else he said.) and I know. I have it good. Real good. I'm so very greatful for the fact too.
Despite that my somehow it hurts everytime I hear something like that. Whether online or in-person. My mother's boss. My father. My classmates. I really don't mean to be dramatic or sensative or nothing, but as I mentioned earlier, I can't help but ask myself: How do some not realize how their words can directly or indirectly hurt or harm groups of people or individuals. I ask myself that same question when I overhear racist or homophobic remarks from those same people. I wonder how it is possible to not at all empathize with people and instead make jokes about them, laugh at their expense.
At the same time I don't have much against that group of 6-or-so students. I geuss kids are gonna be kids and say disagreeable stuff. What I'm going to briefly say as a send off... You can tell when someone didn't grow up being teased or nothing, but rather been the jokesters since day 1. It's harder to empathize or simply try and understand when you haven't been there. I get that. I can't be too upset.
Right then, that's that.

It's 1000 Follower Event Matchup request Congratulations! Absolutly deserved.
So my pronouns are she/her and I'm an INTP, Cancer. I'd like romantic matchup with male characters from Attack on Titan and Jujutsu Kaisen
I think I'm pretty understanding, I'm trying to don't judge people and understand that their life can be difficult sometimes and that's why they can act a bit weird or sth. I analyze everything obsessively and wonder why something went so and not different. This is not the worst feature, it allows me to understand some dependencies, but sometimes it makes my life difficult. Honestly, involvement in relationships gives me some difficulties. When you meet me for the first time, I'm shy and quiet, and I need a couple of years to open up. However, even after a few years, I rare show emotions, it's hard for me to talk about them. It's like tearing down one wall and another is standing behind it. It might look like I don't love someone because I don't show it by words or deeds. I have mood swings. Sometimes I can laugh with someone all week just to spend the next week in complete isolation. So it takes a lot of patience to understand that one day I'm having fun and scheduling meetings and canceling them the next day. It will take years for someone to get to know my emotions, but it's actually easy to learn simple things about me. Somtiems I am walking with a friend on the street and I start talking about my favorite type of architecture when I see a new building. And I love giving advice! Although I'm rather bad at it ... Usually I do it, but then adds "BUT IT DEPENDS" and I start a monologue about all the variables and possibilities. So when someone asks me for advice they end up more confused than before the question. But I can safely advise on clothes. I have always liked fashion, even as a child I wanted to be a stylist.
One of my favorite things is reading! I try to read as many classics as possible. But I also like more experimental literature, such as books by Bukowski or Miller. I like movies, the old ones from the 50s and 60s as well as the new ones. Although I'm quite picky about this, I hardly ever think a movie is really good. The next thing will be art for sure. There is no option for me to miss an art exhibition in my city. And I am trying to learn new languages, I'm currently learning Korean, English and German but plan to start Japanese and go back to French.
As for my type, I basically like men with dark hair and light eyes. My favorite hair is a bit longer, not long hair but like Eren's in the first season or Levi's. In general, height doesn't matter to me because I am short (around 5'1 / 155 cm).
I value open and determined people. I like when someone puts as much into relationships as I do, it's important that they have some interest in my life.
As for the scenario ... I honestly would like you to consider how this character feels towards me, and you can write whatever you want! It could be the first date or anniversary of a relationship, I give you a free hand.
So that would be it ... I got the feeling it was so long and I hope I didn't tire you out! Have a nice day!
1000 Follower Event Matchup #21
This event is now CLOSED. You can find the masterlist here.
Note: Hope you like who I matched you with. You seem like such an old-soul in the best way possible! Enjoy <3
Tumblr media
I match you with: JEAN and NANAMI
Runner-ups: Armin and Itadori
Jean:
Tumblr media
Jean instantly popped into my head when I read your description; mostly because I can see him enjoying the artsy things that you like–reading classics and art exhibits
I headcanon that Jean is an old soul (he sure looks the part post-timeskip o.o)
If he truly cares about you, your mood swings won’t bother him at all
He understands that it's just part of who you are, so he gives you your space whenever you need it, but he checks in on you to make sure you’re okay
He’s interested in anything that you like–once Jean falls for someone, he falls hard, so he becomes dedicated to learning more about you and your interests
Idk if he’s a big reader, but he gives off classical novel, and old movie vibes so i think it fits lol
What do first dates with Jean look like?
He’s definitely a nervous wreck, but he feels a little calmer when he sees you’re just as nervous, if not more nervous that he is
He finds your shyness very cute and that's when he falls for you–he wants to protect your heart and make sure no one ever takes advantage of your shy nature
You both go to an art exhibit in the village for your first date since you mentioned it was something you loved to do
It’s a tiny exhibit, but Jean finds himself enjoying it with you (he’s enjoying your starstruck expressions the most though)
Does his best to make you feel comfortable with him, even if you can’t completely open up to him emotionally, he’s willing to work hard to gain your trust and have you open up to him on your own terms–he’ll wait
So yeah, pretty perfect match for you if I do say so myself
Nanami:
Tumblr media
Another old soul that I think compliments you nicely
I imagine Nanami with an intelligent woman, someone who can keep up with him, who has her own little charm that captivates him–and you definitely have that
He’d be super impressed that you’re going out of your way to learn so many languages–he admires that a lot and he’d never say it, but it makes him put in a little more effort into his daily tasks too
Nothing too crazy though, he still won’t go into overtime lol, but he wants to look like a hard working man in your eyes
Nanami loves quiet time with you, whether it be snuggled up indoors with one of your classics as he has a book you recommended to him in his own hands, or if you both watch an old movie together–he’s happy 
He loves going on walks with you and looks at you fondly as you point out something that catches your attention and you go into a long tangent on it
He’ll just listen quietly, making mental notes of all the little things you like
ALSO, he doesn’t mind that you can’t open up emotionally, because he’s the same way, so together you both work on communication and expressing your feelings for each other (mostly through actions though)
If you ever cancel plans with him, he’s very understanding and gives you all the time you need to yourself until you’re ready to see him again (he doesn’t mind quiet time with himself anyway)
What are anniversaries like with Nanami?
Romantic of course
He put a lot of effort into his plans for you (shocking right?)
He’d wear a suit that you picked out for him one day when shopping together and he’s already prepared a matching outfit for you to change into
Your day starts with your favorite flowers along with all your favorite things
He manages to find a drive-in movie theater that plays all the old classics, so you do that together
Perhaps maybe even share a milkshake 
And the day ends with a romantic dinner that he prepared himself somewhere extravagant
He’s really gone way beyond over-time for you, but it’s all worth it
10/10 man but we already knew that
Tumblr media
EVENT REQUESTS ARE CLOSED
REGULAR REQUESTS ARE OPEN :D

embarrassing but i'm crying some real tears of self-pity over how i'm feeling trapped in a country of rednecks and rubes and capitalist pigs and spoiled brats and murderers and suicidal nuts and control freaks and mini-Trumps and mini-Morrises and simps and incels and asexuals and thirst traps and hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate
where you know, calling me a faggot is their idea of transgressive fun
and if this wasn't a crappy culture and America had stuck to its multicultural roots instead of simp'd out for sportsball and video games, I'd be able to share Guus Meeuwis songs with them
or they'd be smart or hard-working and i'd be impressed by their brains or work ethic or something
or they'd be a fraction as capable of niceness and mature self-restraint amongst aggressive feelings towards their friends as me
or they'd be good in bed instead of just making me do all the work and weirded out by everything like in America sex is just an experience that happens to you like turning on the tv -- although i'm sure there are guys who'd crudely pound my ass if i wanted that, which i don't, being a 'top', just not a top who wants to fucking do everything for everyone all the time
and in the short term, wanting to down two more slices of buttered bread or peanut buttered bread tho it's getting late and i might just split the difference even though this isn't the best for my abs or my reservation for 6 at the Norwegian tomorrow (Rockford is full of Nordic restaurants, which is awesome) and I have new friends to impress
and it just sucks to be stuck in fucking america by my own choosing i guess like i should fucking figure it out how to leave if i can't handle this shit and take the lower pay of the better countries or dust off my Norwegian and move there (really doubt they're taking anyone)
jason you have nobody to blame but yourself for being born in Marshall WI to a family that mostly hates you because the old elders who went to church were good people and all that is left is secular typical americans who find themselves 'very smart' for not going to church or war, just like mini-Trump tells them they're very smart and it's all just such a disappointment, like people almost couldn't have botched the future more if they'd tried
anyhow, if i further want to escape my circumstances more than i have, i have to put the pedal to the pedal and just do it, Nike baby, and sometimes it's like hey indecisive self, you're never gonna feel like a natural Spaniard Portuguese Brazilian Tico German French Dutch Italian Maltese etc. etc. with that attitude, you have to do 10,000 metric tuns more learning moving shaking earnun' and you don't want to
i'm aware this is a 1st de la 1st world problem, i did all the work to become a unicorn and now i'm feeling like i'm sitting in a field of mud because culturally, isn't that mostly what america is? mostly a field of mud inhabited by pig people? cities used to be literally overrun with pigs but we did a reverse 1984 and just uh sort of became em ourselves, from human to swine minus the communism? i've already found everything on the menus in Rockford that i haven't had already. there's a few things still at The Norwegian and LimaMar and that Thai place.
as in Morgan Morning by Cosgrove, once you're no longer a horse it just isn't really permitted to chill with horses like you're one of em. not that i'd want to hide my horn anyway. cuz little light of mine, let it shine and all that

Grizzly
By Don Hall
COUPE WOKE UP IN A HOSPITAL ROOM. He wasn't entirely certain what had happened. Most was a blank.
He could see in his memory flashes. Waking up in bed with a huge grizzly bear. Being chained to it by his ankle. The bear waking up. A mouth full of razor sharp teeth. Screams. Pain. Now this.
He was hooked up to a beeping heart monitor and could see with the one uncovered eye an I.V. connected to his right arm. He looked down and both his legs were bandaged and he couldn't move them. His left arm was... gone.
The heart monitor started beeping faster and faster. He felt a woozy panic. A nurse—heavy set, black, wearing greenish scrubs—rushed in and put a needle in to the I.V. tube.
"You calm down, now. Didn't expect you to wake up for another few hours, Mr. Blue. Here's something to dull the pain," she said with a soothing and comforting tone.
He almost immediately went to sleep but not before hearing the angry roar of a feral monster.
LIKE ANY OTHER MORNING, COUPE WOKE UP HOURS BEFORE HIS WIFE. She didn't work any sort of traditional job so she was used to sleeping in a bit. She called it chinching. Coupe was a crack of dawn type. Whether he wanted to or not, he popped conscious around 5 a.m. every morning, made coffee, smoked, did some early morning work, went to the gym, took a shower all before his wife even opened her eyes.
It wasn't that she was lazy, Coupe reasoned. She simply didn't fit the normal standard of job. He told her once, as a way to make her feel better, that she didn't suffer bad management so she had a hard time holding down any sort of steady gig. He was happy to work and foot the bills as she explored possibilities. She mostly found random jobs via Craigslist and then spent much of her time at the pool (during pool season) or wandering around casinos, looking for slot vouchers left behind.
He was someone who enjoyed a sense of routine. She was not. They had made the difference work, though, so when he slowly stretched into the waking world and heard a beast's heavy, slow breathing next to him, he was shocked into immediate vigilance.
His wife was not next to him.
Instead, he was chained to to a 400-pound grizzly bear by a golden shackle and chain, which was likewise clasped around the leg of the bear.
Coupe recalled the only experience he could in an inappropriate moment given his immediate peril. In college, his first roommate embarked on a campaign to chase him out of the shared dorm room. Loud music in the morning, his clothes put in bags outside the room, this guy tried everything to get Coupe to move to another dorm. Finally, Coupe awakened to a German Shepherd chained to his bed. The dog was pissed off and Coupe was naturally scared. But he calmed the dog down and re-chained him to the roommate's bed where it shit and pissed.
He didn't know how to calm down a sleeping bear the size of three people combined but he thought he might be able to escape as long as he didn't wake the creature up.
He reached slowly to his ankle. The cuff was tight and the lock a serious one. He gently tested the chain, thinking maybe it was weak enough to pull apart. It was not. The grizzly stirred a bit. He froze. After a few minutes, he tried to pry the cuff from his ankle. No dice. He was stuck.
He lied there, the beast breathing slowly, and wondered what happened? Where was his wife? Did she do this to him? Why?
He thought back to find any clues that might indicate that she'd chain him to a bear. First was how? How did she even get a grizzly bear into their one bedroom apartment without him hearing, let alone chaining him to it, let alone not be killed herself in the doing? Second was why? What'd he do to instigate this? Why a bear and not, say, a scorpion or snake?
After lying next to the hulking animal for nearly three hours, he decided to risk calling for help. This, he soon discovered, was a mistake. The bear startled awake, turned its huge mass his way and, in an almost casual manner, attacked him viciously as if he were no more than a salmon. The bear slashed at him with her massive claws and chomped down on his arm. She lifted him up and shook him like a dog shaking a squeak toy. He screamed in pain, in surprise, and in the realization that he was going to die in minutes.
HIS SISTER SAT NEXT TO HIS BED AS HE WOKE UP AGAIN.
"What happened?" he croaked.
"Coupe. Brother. Was last week the first time you noticed you were married to a grizzly bear?"
"What? That's stupid. I woke up chained to one but I'm not married to a fucking bear!"
"She was a bear all along, dude. None of us could understand it. For some reason, you thought this wild animal was a person. Your wife. She couldn't come inside for Christmas because she was a fucking bear so you justified it by telling yourself she just loved the outdoors. She liked to camp or some other happy horseshit.
"Remember when Werner Herzog came out with the documentary Grizzly Man and everyone bought you the DVD? We all thought you would suddenly recognize another man convinced of the humanity of a wild creature like it was a Pixar character or something. The guy gets mauled to death because animals are not human. They're animals. They exist to eat, fuck, shit, and survive without any human empathy or emotions. Bears don't care about you. They only care about their own survival and will rip anything that threatens that to shreds."
"Wait. You believe that Geena was a bear?"
"No. You believed she was a human being. She was always a bear. Look."
She pulled up her pictures app on her iPhone. There was a picture of him in front of the Chapel of the Bells in Vegas where he and Geena got married. It was a picture of him kissing a hulking brown grizzly.
"That's... that's not real. That's photoshopped or something."
She started swiping through pictures that should've been he and Geena—in Cancun, Paris, London, St. John, Chicago—but were photos of him with a freaking bear.
"You really think I photoshopped all of these? Face it. You were blinded by something deep in your brain that had you convinced this bear was a beautiful woman. I'm just thankful you realized the mistake before she just outright killed you. Sure, you're gonna be seriously scarred, even after plastic surgery, and you'll never get the arm back but at least you're alive."
Coupe swiped past hundreds of pictures. No Geena. Always a bear. And him, looking lovingly at the bear.
"So, you're telling me..."
"I'm telling you that Geena was a bear. And for some reason you woke up two weeks ago and saw what we've all seen since you brought her home."
"That she is a wild animal."
"Yes."
"Where is she now?"
"Animal Control came, sedated her, and took her to the zoo. She's been living in apartments with you for the past six years so she isn't fit for the wild."
"The zoo."
"The zoo."
FIVE MONTHS AND SEVEN SURGERIES LATER, COUPE FOUND HIMSELF AT THE ZOO, STARING INTO THE BEAR HABITAT. To his eyes, there were four bears in the inclosure and Geena. Geena didn't look like a bear to him but like his wife. Dressed like a teenager in the ‘90s, grinning that crooked grin of hers.
"Hey, baby. I don't know what to say. They tell me you’re a bear but I can see you're not. They tell me my judgment is highly suspect and that it may be a delusional aspect to my personality, the need to see what I want to see rather than what is really there."
Geena ambled up to Coupe, separated by a cage and an artificial moat. She reached into the moat and pulled out a writhing fish and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Yeah," Coupe said. "I love you, too."

Hi!!! Back again! So I'm in the mood for platonic yandere Gemanics ( Germany, Prussia, Austria, Switzerland ) plus Hungary and Romantic yandere Liechtenstein with a autistic shy mute female darling that's in a relationship with Liechtenstein, but with a dark twist. I'll tell said dark twist in messages lol.
❥ I actually find the idea of a platonic yandere interesting, so this was rather fun to explore! Although not really upto my taste. I decided to write different types of platonic attractions for this one, I didn’t wanted the characters to be similar with each other.
Tumblr media
Platonic Yandere Germanics + Hungary
Austria {Roderick Edelstein}
Tumblr media
I doubt its surprising to anyone that he would be a stern mentor towards you, similar to an agitated father who wants you to be the best of all and would push you towards that goal. His manupilation works quite well with your sheltered naivety, which wont be stained so easily.
Perhaps you are a small province or representative of a state, passed over to him with the responsibility of raising and protecting you. There could be a potential in you which would interest him more, a peculiar talent or your familial devotion towards him which he returns.
Perhaps he is just an old man who is no longer respected the way he once was, as a grand empire. Roderick would be damned if his own daughter begins to disobey or disrespect him, even though you will eventually realize his toxic behavior, it will be hard to get out of his tight grasp around your life.
You could be similar to a younger sister to him, since Roderick does treat you like an adult rather than a child. Although with many restrictions since he is overprotective and possessive over you, which is justified to him since you are technically a part of his country.
The only interaction you get mostly is with the maids and the guards, sometimes Hungary would pay you both a visit and rarely Prussia, since Austria wouldnt trust him with you at all. Switzerland would only interact with you briefly, adding nothing to your conversations while Liechtenstein will fairly get along with you
Hungary is prone to treating you like a child, which you would detest as a grown woman. She makes you pretty dresses and often talks to you about other nations which is actually the only thing you will know about them, making you feel isolated and so small. Which is what Austria would want.
Prussia would actually be quite neutral towards you, treating you with brief questions and answering some of your question with double layered answers. He might detest Austria somewhat but wouldnt go as far as to help you escape or let anyone else take you.
Switzerland couldnt care less and would only visit for diplomatic reasons or if Liechtenstein herself would want to visit you. Sure you would be transported to Switzerland if any invasion or war occurs involving Austria, since to be fair living in the middle of Europe was troublesome back in those days. *cough*
Germany would be kept mostly in the dark about you, being quite young than the others and will only know some stuff from his brother. Which is again, double layered answers. If he does meet you, Austria is over there hovering behind you possessively. Its mostly awkward and maybe you will end up having a crush on him- which you mentor will notice and take action.
"You are staying here and that is final", a stern glare was all you got as Roderick wore his coat. You had asked him to visit miss Hungary, wanting to get a change of surroundings rather than roaming around the mansion you had been in for years. Any resolve to argue was gone or rather was always pushed under the rug with his harsh statements towards you or the world.
He would expect you to be a well-mannered lady, reminding you about your posture or pushing you to learn piano or ballet, whatever it is. Roderick might take you out for some formal events if its with the Germanics, but thats mostly it. He is nagging towards you, mostly judgmental.
Roderick is similar to a strict teacher, pushing you to do your best and not allowing any disrespect or disobedience from you. Expecting you to be a obedient clever lady which you should strive to be. He doesnt need to be physical to get the point across, your already sheltered personality makes it easier for him to manipulate you or demeaning your presence in front of everyone. Roderick can be a prick and unapologetic with his harsh words, slowly destroying your self-esteem.
Basically you will get the most refined lessons but you wont have the freedom to choose what you want if Roderick deems it unfit. Or meet anyone improper. He would prefer if you are similar to Monaco or Germany, just not independent. Also even if his words don`t get across you then maybe he will let Erzsebeta take care of you for a while.
Switzerland {Basch Zwingli}
Tumblr media
Of course, he is more protective and paranoid over you than he is over Liechtenstein. To such an extent that he wont ever allow you to be an independent state, no matter what happens or whatever anyone demands. Maybe he found you deserted after a war, almost a toddler on the brink of death before Lily. Maybe you showed him the innocence the world has thrown over long ago, Basch will want to protect you from the cruel fate again.
he really does not trust the outside world or its inhabitants, filled with brimming wars and cruelty around you both. If anything, you will grow up to be very isolated and oblivious about everything, not stupid but unaware of how the real world can break anyone or anything with enough determination. Similar to Rapunzel.
Not that any nation would dare invade you, since your land would be surrounded by dozens of explosives and Basch would make sure the enemy regrets their choice. You might have an army {which is mostly Swiss anyways} to protect your territories but Basch wont ever let you hold a gun. Not that you need to, your big brother would take care of everything.
You will be privately educated about basic things or learn how to fix things around you. Not much else you can do in an huge, isolated cottage, high up on the mountain anyways. Sewing or baking with Lily or just taking care of things. It will be a very simple life for you. You can read how much you want since maids would take care of the housework, only the best healthy food would be brought to you, you can paint all day long, basically anything not involving electronics and within the boundaries of the cottage. Like Rapunzel.
Basch is honestly just very paranoid about everything and everyone involving you since he already doesnt trust others and it just intensifies with dozen wars, your oblivious and childlike personality, you might be somewhat mature, but in no way are you experienced with the outer world or wars like the other nations are. Which is his fault to begin with, but meh, the damage is already done.
He would trust you with his citizens obviously, so he wouldnt really introduce you to other nations except Liechtenstein for any sort of protection. Also because he doesnt want them to taint your innocence and pursue you to gain independence. Not that many would say anything, considering he hasn`t exploited or harmed you in any matter, unlike what most of the other nations had done to their colonies.
Although he would allow you to meet Liechtenstein`s darling- not if its a male- or even Austria`s darling, if she visits due to war or an invasion in her homeland. Basch will nonetheless be wary with them and ensure they don`t talk too much about what`s going on in the outside world.
Again like Austria, he doesn`t need to be physical. Sure there might be a tracker involved but he won`t even verbally abuse you, there`s no need for such treatments or punishments since you already have been throughly brainwashed and see your brother in an intensely positive manner.
Of course, maybe Austria would have his doubts, Germany might notice something too, Liechtenstein might accidentally spill out your name, prompting their interests. Sure this might irritate Switzerland somewhat, but he wont ever mention anything about it and Lily wont ever spill the beans either, even though it would upset her to hide things from Roderick.
Since Switzerland is naturally an isolated person and ultra-independent in general with not much of a social life which he cares to maintain, there`s not much chance of other nations meeting you especially not vice-versa. You are never leaving his country.
In the mansion which you stay in, there will also be a pretty garden with a pond or you could visit Liechtenstein with him. Not that you can see much, Basch wouldn`t want you to grow curious about the outside world, you wont be locked in 24/7. Plenty of fresh air and new activities will be available to you.
In general, you will be a very sheltered, well-mannered lady who is unaware of her own prison and considers the world to be nothing short of a very dangerous place, which her dear older brother swears to protects her from. It will be cozy but rather boring too. Also somewhat lonely with only little talks with the maids to keep you entertained.
It’s better for the sake of your sanity that it does stay that way, or else things will be harder to go through, being blissfully ignorant. Basch won’t hesitate murdering someone who even dares to help you or change the way you perceive the world or himself. He lost a close family before to disloyalty, he won’t have that with you, his dear little sister.
Not to mention, wouldn’t it be so hard to accept that the same hands once wiping your cold tears, would wipe the warm blood off your face?
Hungary {Erzsebeta Herdevary}
Tumblr media
She had always adored you, you were such a dear friend to her, such an admirable person. Maybe you were her assistant or a working lady she had befriended long ago or simply a fragile person which urged her to protect you.
Erzsebeta is a very compassionate person when she wants to be and so can be rather overbearing to deal with. Possessive towards you since she doesn’t want to lose an another important person to her. She wants to know everything involving you and will interrogate you herself, don’t lie to her either.
Whether it be platonic or romantic, the Hungarian is proned to get jealous quite easily or overprotective towards you. Can’t you see? She’s just looking out for you in this unfair world which only seeks to ruin and destroy you?
As stated before, Erzsebeta would treat you as a young child rather than a grown lady, such might infuriate you. Brushing your hair and dressing you up. Of course, she will consider your opinions, somewhat.
As long as only if you get snarky, if bark turns to bite then Erzsebeta would make sure to pull out your teeth, she won’t hesitate smacking you if you retort physically. Basically an overprotective toxic friend who is platonically possessive over you.
Unlike the former nations, she doesn’t mind hanging out with you in different places as long as you behave yourself . Or else her frying pan is hitting your head. Afterwards she will probably fuss over you as she lightly scolds you for misbehaving.
Her fussy attitude can get very embarrassing for you sometimes, especially in front of other nations. Pulling your cheeks, fixing your attire, stroking your back. It will be disdainful in front of your crushes, her attitude turns to extreme and she basically infantilizes you just to ruin your chances.
You might have already graduated or on the path of pursuing your career which Erzsebeta would love to make you doubt about, she might even bribe the professors to fail to or frame you for something illegal. Offering to tutor you, luring you to trust her, deleting your notes or your important assignments, she won’t hesitate to make you fail.
No maids over here, she will take care of all the household work and work from home. She has her ways to sweet talk with her boss and will even introduce you to make you feel more trapped or privileged to have such a great friend.
Speaking of friends, undoubtedly you would have met Poland or the nation would have heard of you from Erzsebeta ranting about you all the time. The guy cares about his closest friend a lot and would tag along to help her with anything involving you. Sure, you will be very irritated by him, not that he does not enjoy watching you suffer. it’s quite amusing.
Of course, there is Roderick as well. Although you would have met him, you won’t have much of a conversation since your possessive friend simply won’t allow it to take place. Sure they might be somewhat close but undoubtedly Erzsebeta would feel very uncomfortable and drag you somewhere else.
No way is she allowing Gilbert to get close to you, they might have been frenemies but they still have their sour spots and don’t get along much. Ludwig is alright for her, but you won’t interact much with him. Others such as, Katyusha, Emma and Lily might meet with you now and then. Albeit rarely.
She is very much protectively maternal towards you, despite acting as your ‘cool, rebellious best friend’, she can be very paranoid and suspicious over everyone when it involves you. You have a best friend for life who is strangely obsessed with whatever you have an interest in and is intensely appreciative of you.
She might have you even attend meetings with her but she will constantly hover over you as if it’s a date, as I said she can be embarrassing real quick with her fussy antics and tiring. Also arguing with her will never end well since she will accuse you of being ungrateful and gaslight you.
As for punishments, she will lock you without any privileges or let someone take advantage of you so you can realize how much you truly need her and how weak you truly can be.
Germany {Ludwig Beilschmeidt}
Tumblr media
Very overprotective over you, no one is meeting you without his permission and neither are you going anywhere without him, he just wants you to be safe and potentially not near any danger.
You might have been his caretaker or his older sisterly figure, surrounding him with maternal affection which he had truly never experienced much of. Technically he sees you as a maternal figure that he is paranoid over losing, he can`t lose any more than he has, he is keeping you caged as a pretty butterfly.
Ludwig is actually pretty respectful towards you and very obedient to your wishes, sure you might not be able to have him leave you alone but he isn`t all that bad. He is very fond of you, as a child to his mother, he just wants a motherly familial relationship that he never got to experience. So, to some extent you do have some control over your life and over him.
If anything, you probably fuss over him more than he does over you, being his caretaker you were probably in charge to look after him and make sure he is doing well. such habits die hard for years. Ludwig loves it tho, it keeps him mentally sane at the very least after all he has been through at a very young age, you were there with him right?, so don`t you remember? How hard had it been for him? Never-ending nightmares and agony surrounding him?
Both of you are stubborn so arguments do erupt often but Ludwig mostly backs down and listens to you ranting about one thing or another, similar to a mother hen which he will find rather amusing. A hand on your waist as you scold him for frightening Feliciano away again, with a loaded gun nonetheless, then you return to your sewing and grumble about one thing or another.
Remember though, as much as it is rather domestic to live with him as his maternal figure, you do have a role to fulfill which makes things rather tiring or troublesome for you. He will buy you pretty vintage dresses or something similar which you would prefer and probably live in a small, traditional German town. Your duty is similar to a mothers` basically, and your set for life with a very loyal and over-protective son.
You can do whatever you want the whole day when things needed to be done are over, Ludwig won`t mind as long as it is within a range. Watch different shows, read dozens of books, paint or draw, sew whatever, chat with the locals, tend to your backyard farm and have cats, rabbits or dogs, he`s fine with it.
Don`t you try to escape or ask for help though, he will feel betrayed and that won`t end well. If you have a lover, then he is going to die as simple as that, Ludwig is going to explode and won`t trust you anymore, it will just make him more intense. Didn`t you at least try to think about how all of this would affect him? Instead of selfishly trying to satisfy your own needs?
No way is anyone else going to meet you or know anything about you, Ludwig is not going to take the risk. The only person who knows is obviously Gilbert and that`s it, Feliciano might have accidentally come across you once and probably think you are Ludwig`s secret lover, proceeding to flirt with you anyways because, well.... why not?
Any blackmail or threats won`t be necessary, not that you are brainwashed, but not being in touch with society means you probably feel isolated to try anything much. Gilbert won`t hesitate putting you in your place though, after all, Ludwig will always be his first priority.
Austria, Liechtenstein and Hungary might have their own doubts but it is only a fleeting thought and neither of them would bother to put much thought into it. Since Ludwig simply won`t allow them to and shoot down any attempts, Feliciano will be eradicated if he opens his mouth about it to anyone, heavens forbid him if it`s France or Austria.
It`s up to you to comfort Ludwig, whether he is angry or simply just tired, not that he will lash out but it might make him think you are plotting something and fuse out a bomb with his overwhelming paranoia. Things will be easier for you if you just act along, since you can get that credit card with only few restrictions.
Basically a possessive sugar child lmao. Unlike others Ludwig won`t hesitate buying anything you would ever want or need, he might allow you to hire a maid although he would prefer you doing the household chores, maybe or adopt pets, whatever, you need it? he buys it, anything except independency.
Prussia {Gilbert Beilschmeidt}
Tumblr media
Canonically, he is over-protective towards Ludwig and undeniably has been a responsible paternal figure towards him. So naturally, Gilbert is stubbornly hovering around his daughter-like figure every time he can and he won’t back off no matter what.
Very affectionate, patient and gentlemanly towards you, it could be because you are a female, not that he isn’t loving towards a younger Ludwig years later, but nonetheless there’s a stark difference between the upbringings you both have had due to that factor. Keep in mind, he is a religious deep down to some extent and a man of Prussian virtues, especially during the 1600-1900s.
In the beginning, Gilbert would be rather hesitant raising a young woman since he doesn’t has much experiences with raising one in a proper way. He will be anxious and only allow the best and most maternally experienced handmaiden near you. No man is laying his eyes on you. The orders are strict and clear to everyone and he makes sure of that.
After his duties, every night Gilbert will keep in mind to pay you a visit. With dozen of books or whatever you are interested to learn, no matter how tiring from his burdening work, he won’t come to you empty-handed. He is a very attentive and a responsible mentor and makes sure your needs are properly met, not wanting you to fend for yourself the way he was forced to.
You will probably grow up not knowing much people but not necessarily lonely or naive. Gilbert would hire a personal assistant to teach you various instruments, arts or many other things. With various guards you could go to different places {only with high security}, even to plays or operas, wherever you want.
Behind everything Gilbert wouldn’t hesitate to manipulate the situation when his paranoia grows. It takes a few months of less stress for him to realize you had grown into a healthy and a pretty young woman, when your handmaiden requests for more accessories and sanitary products, when you converse to him about various philosophies or entertain the tutor with your theories, Lord forbid especially when he notices the fellow men stealing glances at you.
With Gilbert already keeping much of his stuff private to himself, no other nation will know anything about you. Ludwig might of course, but even he will be secretive about you because of his own concerns. Liechtenstein might meet you but won’t know your identity, in a way you have no one to run to when things turn sour.
Already being very unstable, any tries at escaping will send Gilbert into a high-driven tension, by using his authority and by legal or illegal means he will get you back and won’t hesitate making you behave and learn your lessons.
Tears, yelling and screaming won’t be getting you anywhere. Gilbert will stand firm on his decisions and won’t have you acting like a brat, don’t even try to resort to physical means {which tbf he was the one to teach you} because things will turn ugly rapidly. If one thing which Gilbert won’t tolerate it is disrespect, he does not give a damn if such values are not cared for anymore.
Basically you are independent but restricted socially, financially and under his direct authority. Ludwig’s government won’t do much since Gilbert is technically very much giving the same respect as he was given before and also he has his own resources in the legal frameworks.
He won’t use corporal punishment which includes spanking or similar stuff since technically you are his daughter and he finds it rather uncomfortable to do so due to that reason. But mentally you wont be able to spare yourself and be ready to kneel on peas.
Gilbert isn’t such a bad or dangerous platonic yandere to have but is one of the hardest to deal with. Not being naive or innocent will slowly destroy your sanity and in the end you will end up feeling very mentally and emotionally, not to mention sexually trapped. It is hard to deal with and ending up paranoid about everything will be quite common for you.
Liechtenstein x F!Autustic! Mute reader
Tumblr media
Disclaimer: I apologize if there are any inaccuracies or offensive elements with the reader.
Liechtenstein simply could not ignore your request to go the park that day, with your eyes beaming as your smile widened on your adorable face. With your obedient behavior and reciprocal affection, it would not be a bad idea to go for a walk after locking you inside for months.
As far as Elise could remember, you have always been such a darling, always ready to help and make everyone feel comfortable when there was any tension brewing and she couldn’t help but fall in love with that aspect of yours. You always strived to charm people with your proper guidance and solve any problems.
Being a peacekeeper herself, Liechtenstein would love to chat around with you. And will be ready to back you up if it’s necessary. Nonetheless she gets rather concerned about others taking advantage of you or using you for their own benefit.
You being the younger sister of Kiku didn’t stop her from taking action either, considering the fact that she had allowed to keep contact with him only, he didn’t worry too much since he remained blissfully unaware of her unhealthy romantic attraction towards you.
‘Are you ready to go?’, you signed towards her and she nodded. She had also learned sign language just for you, although she didn’t had to use it often, she wanted to make you feel comfortable with her and supportive towards you. Clutching her basket, you both were off to a nearby park, simply to stroll around and get some fresh air.
It was safe to say that both of you had a lot of fun and relaxation, eating fresh baked goods, collecting flowers and fruits, strolling through the garden had been a nice change of experience. Elise was just glad to see you enjoying the day, truth be told she was keeping an eye on you, wondering if you were planning to deceive her all along.
But to her relief, you truly were genuine about your feelings towards her it seemed. You were currently petting a cat while she was on her way to refill her water bottle just nearby, with a last glance towards you she got up and went on her way.
Sighing, she was about to turn around after her bottle was filled when-,”hey there lady”, Elise could already catch a whiff of alcohol from the men, turning towards the intruders, she gave a dignified glare and a frown, her hand about to reach her gun when a realization struck her- she didn’t have it.
Elise remembered clearly that she was about to grab a hold of her gun, but then in pure excitement and thrill you had grabbed her hand and dragged her towards the door before she could do so. She hadn’t paid much mind to it, but obviously she had been wrong, she should have been more attentive for the sake of yours and hers safety.
Of course she wasn’t afraid, even though the men sneered at her and were currently getting closer with vulgar taunts and comments, Elise wasn’t a fragile damsel. A nation in her own right, she still had the higher ground anyways. Rolling her eyes at their flirting, she clutched her skirt only to watch with widened eyes as an arrow whizzed past her head.
One of the men cried out as he clutched his shoulder, glaring towards her,”God you fucking bitch- get her!”, with a huff and an elegance of a ballerina, Elise kicked one of the advancing men on the stomach as an another arrow struck them, this time hitting a fatal spot. Blood seeping on their shirt, one of them was about turn and run away, Elise tripped the man and watched an arrow hit his shoulder with a subtle amusement.
She turned her head, curious where the arrows came from, only to notice you standing there with a bow and a fierce look in your eyes. Upon meeting her stare, you grinned back as she ran towards you, hugging you tightly as the men groaned when she stepped over them. You gave them a glare and decided to finish the job once and for all.
“You won’t get away with this - you whore-“, well they had officially pissed you off.
Back on the way home, Elise almost cried over you, even though you were the on who had done most of the damage. “Oh I am so glad you are okay!”, with a tight grip on your arm, both of you headed towards Austria’s house nearby.
‘Don’t worry, I am doing fine, stop stressing out too much’, rapidly signing hoping that she would relax, Elise grabbed both of your hands in hers and gave you a chaste kiss on the lips. You gave a smile which would always put her at ease and looked around for any more potential dangers.
Elise decided to change the subject, now chatting about how Natalya and Arthur were dating, until the conversation was interrupted by Roderick. He was near the door of his mansion and waving the both of you over. And of course, both of you were glad to rest after all the shenanigans.
Erzsebeta and Ludwig were in the kitchen, baking some deserts while Roderick was reading a book. Gilbert was sorting some paperwork, Elise sat beside you on the couch watching television, cuddling together as the news blasted about several murders which had recently taken place.
Grinning in victory, you took a sip of your drink when Elise handed you the telephone, apparently it was Kiku probably wanting to check on you. On the video call, you feigned surprise and tried your best not to blow cover. When the talking was done, let’s just say Elise sure knew how to buy some great expensive stuff.

I ACCIDENTALLY POSTED THIS BEFORE IT WAS DONE IM SO SORRY AAAA
I can't promise it'd be good or accurate in any way at all, but I can say that I'll try my best!! sorry this took such a long time ;; very scared of not doing stuff perfectly yk? ;;; but thank you, I'm glad you like my writing! welcome to the crew 🍋 anon!! I don't know too much on witchcraft (my parents don't allow me to practice anything that I'll have to get extra stuff for :/) so I hope just doing everything but that is okay, I'm so sorry I couldn't do everything :(( n you take care as well!! and thank got for all the love n support!! mwah !
I don't write for George so I hope it's okay I took him out ;;
multiple x ambivert! bilingual! y/n
pairings: feral boys (no George) (dream, sapnap, Karl, quackity), BenchTrio (tommy, tubbo, ranboo) (separate) x reader
pronouns: they/them
other information on the reader:
. bilingual
. ambivert
. likes puzzle n strategic games (n good at them)
. minor
. artist
. faceless
form: headcanons
genre: platonic
abbreviations: y/n -> your name
feral boys (- George) (dream, sapnap, Karl, quackity)
congrats! you now have 4 new older brothers! and no you don't have a say in it! /lh
they all think it's really cool that your bilingual!!
if one of the languages you speak is Spanish quackity would invite you to his spanish-only/mostly streams \o/
I know it's unlikely, but if your other language is Greek by chance then maybe you and sapnap exchange a few Greek words/sentences, not for anything other than to confuse those also in call >:)
definitely see quackity doing the same thing!
if you speak a language other than Greek or Spanish they're like,, woah,,, that's so cool what
you could probably get anyone but dream to say almost anything in your language 💀
purely bc I believe that dream has had that happen multiple times before so now he's careful with saying things he doesn't know 😭
you could also make them believe an insult is a complement if you say it in a kind tone, and the other way around (depends on the language, bc with some it's close enough to English to tell)
like with a lot of German you could probably do that
you, kindly: du bist so schlecht in diesem spiel!! dein Chat muss langweilig sein (you're so bad at this game!! your chat must be bored) (**note: apologies if it's not accurate! I'm still trying to learn German so I used Google translate)
karl: thank you! ,, I think?
you: :)
if anyone in chat knows what you said they'll occasionally translate it for the rest of chat, if that happens, then like,, it's definitely getting clipped
quackity has jokingly asked you to draw him before! dream and karl constantly complement your art, and sapnap is inbetween complementing and being indifferent
like he thinks it's cool and looks really good but he won't bring up a lot and he won't do a whole bunch of compliments! he's a good one to go to and show new art if you want a chill reply while Karl and dream are the ones you show if you want praise for it
if you want jokes and lighthearted statements with semi-hidden compliments go to quackity! :)
I feel like being an ambivert in this group could go one of both ways depending on if you're an introvert w extrovert tendencies or the other way around
hard, introvert with extrovert tendencies, which basically means that you're pretty introverted, won't talk to knew people unless spoken to first but once you do you ease up a bit, once friends you get louder and more hyper showing your extrovert side. you like parties and such despite the fear you have of them, etc. I feel like this would be hard because pretty much everyone in the feral boys is extroverted, save for dream who's an ambivert but super extroverted online! so their energy might scare you but it also draws you in leading you to becoming friends! you probably have a soft spoken voice which the boys fail to notice at first - causing you to get spoken over a lot, just things of that kind! but they get used to it and your contrast fits well :)
easy, extrovert with introvert tendencies, which is the same as above but switched! you can start conversation with strangers - though it may be a bit hard due to your introvert tendencies stunting your social growth, you enjoy parties and social events and talking to people but you're probably off in a corner of the party talking to a group of people rather than dancing, being alone in your room can be calming but is usually lonely and you prefer to have someone - or maybe a few people - around. this would be easy because it's easier for introvert tendencies to be unnoticed online since you're not face to face, so talking to people and interacting would go rather smoothly causing your addition to the crew to be smooth and fast! they didn't have to talk to you first and everyone being (mostly) extroverted made you fit in well, and you won't get talked over because when you do on accident you bring it up and they make sure to be more careful \o/
also for you speaking a different language; if you ever forget a word in English - which is bound to happy often - they'll help you figure it out
and your love and talent for strategic games, puzzle games, and rhythm games kinda shocked them! like the entire group isn't the best at those types of games and don't play them often
they're really impressed about it too! I feel like one of the first times sapnap saw you do a rhythm based game he made a comment about how you'd be a really good drummer!
also if there's a puzzle in a game that quackity is playing he would probably try to call you to get you to figure it out 💀
BenchTrio (tommy, ranboo, tubbo)
they're impressed by you being bilingual right away! I feel like tommy might make a joke about being bilingual bc he knows a few Spanish words
tubbo is super interested in what different words translate to and like, uses you like Google translate around Minecraft after he finds out
"that's super cool!! wait, what's this in your language?" he throws your character a carrot "(carrot in your language)" "okay okay!! this next :D!!" he throws your character a dirt block, you let out and amused breath "am I Google translate now?" "c'mon!!"
ranboo gets mostly confused because he doesn't understand what you're saying so he's like ??? how do I respond if I don't know what you said help
I think you being an ambivert would also fit in well, not matter what type you are bc you literally have 2 ambiverts (both kinds!! ex w int tend is tubbo n int w ex tend is ranboo!) and one extrovert!! there's literally no way you can't fit in unless your sense of humor is wildly different but since you're reading this I assume it's similar!
they will also help you if you forget English words, though tubbo forgets a lot as well so ranboo or Tommy would probably be your best bet to go to!
I feel like tubbo is also good at rhythm games so it wasn't a shock you were or anything, but it did cause a bit where tommy just like,, split the group? 💀 you and tubbo n him and ranboo where the groups, it became like a who's side it better type of thing and ranboo kept "sneaking off" to your vc to tell you stuff n talk a bit, it was fun
as for puzzles, I don't think anyone in the group is good at puzzles besides ranboo, like tubbo might be mediocre but I feel like ranboo is really good like,, have you seen that man's lore ? good god
poor Tommy dude 💀💀
chat 100% brags about you anywhere they can!
"look at my streamer!! they're so talented and smart and funny and they can draw <33 I bet you wish your streamer was as cool as mine /lh"
(sorry it took so long and it's kinda short! I didn't really know what to do exactly :( )

Hopefully this puts things in greater perspective because some tourists just don’t get it and need to hear this. For those who are curious and looking to travel in the future I hope you find this is informative! :) We could all use more perspective on linguistics and traveling imho. I have made some of these mistakes in the past too. We can all learn to be better guests/tourists. This mindset people have that not only is it okay for tourists to exploit and mistreat local populations, but it’s something that should be encouraged is wrong. You’re not entitled to anything special as a tourist just because you have enough money to play around somewhere “exotic” for a few weeks. Regardless of where people travel to. As a guest in someone else’s home you should put more effort into not being a total asshat. You will have a better time and you might learn something cool along the way. I will mostly be using France as an example since I live here and have more insight, but everything I say applies outside of France as well. Note: This information only applies to tourists. Immigrants and refugees are a unique situation and thus face different challenges and have different needs. A tourist chooses where to go and has time (and money) to plan for their trip, which is often only a few weeks or days. Immigrants and refugees often don’t have that same luxury and remain in the country for far longer. (in many cases permanently) Moving to a country places a greater linguistic and cultural demand on an individual. Remember to check your privilege. tourism =/= immigration/asylum. A) English is not the only language in existence. It might be a widely spoken language, but it’s not the most widely spoken language (that honor goes to Chinese) nor is it the only lingua franca. Chinese, Hindu, Spanish, French, and Arabic are all widely spoken across multiple borders and where you are on the planet will obviously dictate which one of these people go with. If you expect that to be English because your sphere of the internet happens to put you in that bubble of “my language or bust” ignorance then like... that’s on you pal. Get with the times and stop assuming everyone should just speak English. English speakers are not the only tourists and English, though widely used, is not the only other language a person might need. I have a friend from Laos who speaks absolutely no English. He doesn’t need it and never has. (even now) He speaks Lao (the regional dialects can be as different as Thai is from Laotian btw), Chinese, a bit of Thai, and French because they still use a lot of French for business dealings there. (something I didn’t know ngl) Assuming he should just speak English because “everyone else does” is ignorant. It’s rude. It puts no thought into his situation. It’s entitled. He’s traveled to visit friends in England and he has an English phrase book. He doesn’t need a lot of English so like... the phrase book is absolutely perfect. Most of what he does in England is sight see and speak Chinese with his friends. Be more like my friend from Laos. B) Official languages may not be the only language a country speaks within its borders. Regional and native languages exist and expecting the locals to speak a 3rd language on top of all that is unbelievably entitled. France has a number of them. There are people who are born and raised in France who don’t speak French in their day to day life. (or at all) Basque, Breton, Occitan, Alsatian, Yiddish, Ladino, Arabic and a number of others are all spoken within French borders. Many are at risk of being permanently lost (that’s why our new regional language law is important btw) and as a result a greater emphasis is placed on preserving them as opposed to learning something new. Most people have to learn the official language as it’s the only language a lot of countries will accept for paperwork, but anything else is up to the individual and you can suck an egg if you don’t like that. (this also applies to immigrants and refugees btw) Heck there are places in the US where people don’t even speak English day to day! Some places actually speak French or Spanish. I heard more Spanish in my day to day life than I did English where I grew up in NC! (moved to Florida and Spanish exploded. loved it!) C) Borders are a thing. People working and living across borders exist and English is often not the language they chose to go with as a result. France borders Germany, Spain, Italy, Belgium, England, and Switzerland. People who share these borders often choose to go with these languages. English is in there, but please note it’s not the only one. D) Culturally speaking a country may not like [insert common language here] and as a result may refuse to speak it. That’s entirely their choice. If you don’t like that then don’t visit the country. It’s really that easy.  Colonialism is often a major factor at play in these situations. Respect that choice. You do not get a say in how people reclaim their identity. As for France? This might come as a shock to some people, but France doesn’t like England. I’m 100% certain these two places exist solely to punch each other in the nuts. (ball tap. an international past time) As a result getting English people to speak French or French people to speak English is about as easy as pulling your own teeth. I’ve been spit on for speaking English because people here just assume I’m from England or they hate “annoying Americans” and after seeing how y’all responded to the last post I made... yeah I totally get it now. Granted, that’s no excuse for someone being hostile, but it is something to keep in mind when you visit and applies to more than just France too. E) Retail workers and small shop owners don’t owe you shit. You have absolutely no right waltzing into a shop and demanding the staff speak your language (I don’t care how common it is) for the two weeks you’ve decided to play around in their home. Always ask them first. If they can’t or choose not to then tough luck. This is why a phrase book is important!
Tumblr media
Retail workers and small shop owners get treated like shit enough. Some of y’all have never worked retail a day in your life and WOW does it show. Please respect retail workers and small shop owners. You don’t know what their day or life has been like. If they’re tired and don’t want to speak to you in a foreign language then that’s their right. I have had no issues using my phone or a phrase book to help communicate concepts when there is a language barrier. (and I fucking live in France. I’m not even visiting) Emergencies also happen and a phrase book or medical card in the native and/or official language is absolutely essential! Even if you just have an allergy to something! This is a great way to stay safe! When you visit another country being aware of and researching cultural differences includes linguistic differences. Tourists are guests. You don’t live here, you don’t get a say. Remember, learning a second language (esp if you don’t use it often) is really hard. If you’re visiting a country do not expect them to just use whatever language you speak. Mind you a phrase book is also important because people within a country may not have a strong grasp on English even if they do speak it. You can very easily get lost or injured without a phrase book to help you. These things allow you to better experience a country and communicate without actually having to learn the entire language... or any of it. And, once again, they exist for free online! You do not need to learn an entire language to visit somewhere, but you need to be prepared for there to be a barrier. People assuming I mean you need to learn a whole language are uh... really something else. Like do you guys think half the people bending over backwards to communicate with you know the full language? Go ahead. Fuck around and find out. ;) Obviously I’m not saying you should be treated poorly when visiting if you don’t know the language. Unfortunately no matter how much effort you put in there will always be someone who’s a jerk and I’m sorry for that. All I’m saying is as a tourist you owe it to yourself and others to be better prepared. Trust me. You’ll have a better time in the end. (and if you did the research you’d find that Paris is not the best first place to visit... even if you’re french lol) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GS64ZT4eWUA Please watch this guy’s video. It is hilarious and touches on a lot of the same points I just made. Thank you for your time. :) ---------------- Cultural tidbit for those who are curious about where I live in France: I live in Alsace currently! (moved from Lyon, but my spouse is from here) In Alsace you might meet people who speak English, but it’s also entirely likely you won’t! Alsace is also a very tourist heavy area because it looks like a German fairy tale and has a lot of tiny villages with cool stuff to do! I highly recommend visiting here over Paris! We have so many storks! (clackclackclack)

Our logo is a pretzel!

That being said, Alsace has its own regional language!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’s not uncommon to see bilingual signage or to pass someone on the street and hear them speaking Alsatian. You’ll usually hear it from older people, children, or those from rural areas. It’s really fun to listen to and absolutely wild to see written on museum signs!  Kids here will start school learning French, regardless of what they speak at home, which has resulted in a downswing of Alsatian speakers in recent years. That’s why the new regional language law I mentioned waaaaaay above is so important. It’ll allow schools to teach most of the day in Alsatian instead of French with the goal being fully bilingual adults! :) As of right now, most kids here choose German or English (depending on the school) as their second language. Some kids pick Alsatian and honestly? Good for them! I’m glad!

How do you feel about ns*w prompts?
If you want, how about how medic, sniper and engie are acting during sexy times ? Or foreplay if you prefer !
I've been kinda thinking about doing stuff like that for a while so I decided why not now? It's not gonna be my first time writing it but it is my first time posting this stuff so fair warning.
NO CHILDREN BEYOND THIS POINT I SWEAR TO GOD DON'T YOU DARE-
Medic
Okay so like, I don't know if it's just me but like I kinda see Medic as a bit ace? Like he doesn't usually think about that type of stuff and it's very rare that he feels this sort of pull, but he won't reject doing it if you want to either.
You'd need to be very blunt with the man. It's not that he's dumb, he just doesn't pick up well on social cues in the first place so he doesn't want to assume anything.
He's never one to initiate. Like ever. You want some? You best come get it.
Kinks? Literally whatever the fuck you're into. Man does not give a fuck. He'll indulge in the most insane shit if you're up for it. He had no line that can't be crossed. He loves experimenting. (I mean that's what he does 98% of the time anyway)
Mega switch. He can be the absolute whiniest sub and the most controlling dom. It's almost scary how good he is at both.
Foreplay can be common or not happen at all. Again it depends entirely on what his partner wants and if you want him to spend an hour just touching you then that's exactly what he'll do.
He holds no shame if caught. Everyone knows better than to say shit to the person that's literally in charge of their bodily functions. No one dares to say a word if they catch the two of you.
He will often slip into German in the heat of the moment so whatever he saids is completely lost on you. (He's honestly just saying random shit but you don't need to know that)
His favorite position is downward dog. Something about hearing your muffled moans just kinda does it for him.
For him, it's more of a casual thing. Like a 'sure, why not'.
Overall whoever he's with gets to decide what smexy time will be like.
Sniper
This man has one hell of a sex drive. It's honestly surprising he hasn't exploded from the number of times he's found himself in a situation where he just really needed that release but couldn't get it that moment.
One small comment, purposeful or not, has him wanting you. There have been more than a few times he's heard the wrong meaning in your words, flustering and really pushing him.
He doesn't initiate it so much as you can see that he really really needs it. He'll deny himself no matter how worked up he gets and it's up to you to shove some reality in his face and give him what he wants.
Man is a full dom when he's in the mood though. I'm talking you won't even know what's happening before he has you against a wall, whispering the dirtiest things you've ever heard in your ear. Which is frankly surprising since he was usually so easily flustered. It's almost shocking how quickly he changes from flustered mess to confident and absolutely fucking H O T.
He doesn't venture into the world of kinks much. He likes it rough and messy, not complicated. He'd rather be the one to hold you down than have some rope do it for him. That doesn't mean he won't try if you ask though.
He draws a hard line with extreme stuff. He will never harm you and would never like to be harmed by you.
If he trusts you enough, and you play your cards right, he can become a melted mess. Sometimes he just really likes to give up all control to you and honestly, it just makes him hotter.
He's definitely the type to use semi-demeaning words but not in a way to put you down. Something like 'you're such a good lil' slut for me'
Voyeurism is something he's turned on about but deathly afraid to do. He's had many a fantasy of fucking where he might get caught but actually getting caught would probably embarrass him to unimaginable lengths. So to indulge in these fantasies he'll do so when you both go camping. No one's around yet the thrill is still there.
He most often likes to fuck you into a wall of some kind. He likes how the position makes it a bit harder to look at anything but him. Your expressions are what he practically lives for.
Foreplay is rare. He's often too worked up to think about it. He mostly likes to get straight to the good part. So when he gives you the reins he can often be even more of a mess if you prefer soft touches and a slower session.
How casual it is depends on how long he's been with you. For the first year they tend to be more rare and often very intense sessions. Once he's more comfortable with you though it can become extremely common and more casual with those intense sessions sprinkled in now and then.
Overall he's a bit hard to predict. You'll start off thinking he's going to be a nervous mess under your fingers before he turns around and fucks you until you can't stand anymore. Then after a while you get to take control and do the same to him.
It's a win/win
Engie
A decent sex drive. Usually he's very good at controlling his urges and keeping them in check but when he wants it damn does he want it bad.
He's a man of words. Nothing, and I mean nothing will get him going faster than a suggestive comment. Keep talking and you'll have him hooked in moments.
Despite what one might think, Engie is a dom. Look, you listen to him when his voice gets deep and tell me he doesn't use that tone to turn on whoever he's with. Man's knows every way to turn someone on without even touching them.
Is most likely the one to initiate. He likes to start it off with a little bit of light touching so it's very often that he turns what was supposed to be a cuddle session or a short kiss into something a lot more.
HUGE praise kink. He's going to compliment each part of your body in the sexiest way he can. Stuff like 'ya sound beautiful when you're beggin sweetheart' and 'ain't you just the most perfect thing ah've ever seen'. He is going to make even the most stone-cold mercenary flush with how good he is at talking dirty.
Foreplay is this man's forte. He's good with his hands and his tongue and you can be damn sure he's using both to his advantage. Kisses all around your body, whispered words that send shocks through your skin, soft touches that send shivers down your spine, he's good at it all.
To him it has to be intimate. He's not one for casual. If he's going to do anything with you it's going to be slow and romatic. He doesn't like anything quick, it just doesn't do it for him. He wants to hold your body, to feel every bit of skin revealed to him.
He doesn't want anyone disturbing his moment with you and it will annoy him to no end if someone does. He'll quickly cover you before throwing whatever's closest to him at whoever disturbed the session. Despite this, he has a huge thing for spontaneous sessions rather than planned ones. This means that you two have done it more than a few times in his workshop. Luckily at this point everyone's learned to just not come in if the doors are closed, no matter how important it is. He's not going to talk or help anyone until he's finished.
He has a different set of nicknames that are saved especially for smexy time. These include 'cute lil' thing, sugar, angle' and a few others. Upon hearing any of those nicknames you'll know exactly what he's planning to do.
He likes it when you ride him. He very much enjoys the hold he has on your hips as you bounce on top of him, not to mention your face contorted in pleasure that he gets a front-row seat to.
Overall he's a man of foreplay and long passionate sessions.
