It's actually awesome and really cool that you manage to make Trellis look nothing like the book but just like the book at the same time. You see it like 'Oh yeah, that's Trellis' but then put them side by side and they're two different people. Anyway, you're awesome and amazing and a really good artist!!!

YEA Idk if it's some Berenstain bears phenomenon or maybe I just ended up getting used to it 😭😭 I know why Kazu's style is what it is and that's to meet a deadline as a comic artist vs me an illustrator that lets me have more freedom to polish a character design, so I took advantage of that and just. Went overboard.

There's a lot about Trellis has changed, but the "core" design of the character remained intact:

- long straight hair (Kazu's just looked more choppy)

- white/blue color scheme (but mostly blue)

- the overall "seriousness" of the character, which is indicated by his frowning expression and scar

It just so happens I brought all these details and refined them into an nth degree?? If that made sense?? Trellis is one of the few long haired elves so let's exaggerate it w longer straight hair so he'd stand out, let's give him a cleaner haircut to represent his "journey" of recovering from his troubled backstory, Trellis has a severe and clever side so let's give him sharp and half lidded eyes to make him look more serious, he always had a blue motif so let's use it more in his color palette (his skin and hair I picked in the bluer larts of the color wheel, if you compare it w Riva's she looks more purple bc I assigned purple as her color due to her dress in book 8), with the whites based on Kazu's discarded manuscript of book 5 and a foil to the Elf King's color (both being Kings), and lastly, Trellis is known for having an abusive past, so drive it home further, it's not just one stitched scar, it's four, travellingacross his cheek eyebrow and forehead, and worse, ir blinded his eye

Am I embarrassed I put so much thought in this???.... Yes. But that's actually a result of accumulation of years drawing Trellis and absorbing other stuff from other media that it's become an amalgamation of both that and Amulet. In summary, I enhanced and refined his core traits hence why I think he both looks like and do not look Kazu's Trellis

#WHEW... Yeah uh... What was I doing #But yes. I've put careful consideration on Trellis's design #It's part (oooh i wanna have him look like this)#Part (this would make sense for this character if so so)#Part (THIS IS A PAIN IN THE ASS TO DRAW SO I'M MAKING IT AN EASIER ONE)#YES THIS IS ABT TRELLIS'S BATHROBE. YOU MAY NOT KNOW BUT I ALWAYS STRUGGLEDNTO DRAW IT #IN A WAY THAT BOTH MAKES SENSE AND LOOMS GOOD!#But I never could and not mention I still have NO clue how I should colore his pants in a way that looks good #So I put Trellis in a dress. Part bc I like Trellis as gnc part it looks great part most bc it's way easier to draw #Forgive me

Y’know as much as I may be a school hater I gotta hand it to them for teaching me something very strangely beautiful (they didnt teach it to me directly like in a class sort of deal tho. i refuse to give them that big of a W)

uhh tw mentions of ass fucking and giving premature birth for like. a single line. it literally does not matter. oh and also anime as a currency and maybe just maybe slight traumadump

you know presentations, right? you do a thing then show the class the thing and explain your thing and shit

mostly as a kid they’d have us buy this giant colored cardboard paper thing and put info about a certain topic in it. the very first one that i remember doing was with this one girl named Mar about penguins. later as we got older shit got more competitive bc the class would vote on which cardboard presentation was the best and the winner would get the cardboard hanging in the school walls for all to see. and idk i guess it hurt spending a decent amount of time in a cardboard only for another one to get voted as if your efforts werent worth anything

ANYWAYS.

so yea school started with cardboards and then around 13-14 we started doing like. powerpoint presentation things. and depending on the topic and if the group project i ended up with were cool friends i got to add a lot of little gags and memes and overall have a lot of fun. and it was because these things were fun that i actually managed to remember a lot of things that we agreed to talk about during the presentation! who knew that having fun made learning better! wish they’d implement that to the school system!

over time teachers started to get more stern on not copypasting shit into the slides and then just reading it aloud for the presentation, and although having notes to read was allowed you definitely looked a lot more preofessional if you didnt have any. also with time I started to get more opportunities to do my presentations alone which i definitely enjoyed more than group ones because i could put whatever shit however i wanted and didnt have to meet up with anyone else and waste time trying to agree on what to do

which then leads into the wonderful tale of this one time in 2018-19 (cant rember) where our english teacher asked us to do a presentation. i dont know if it could be about whatever we wanted or if it had to be about money or whatever. but i chose to make it about anime as a currency. and i got a 10 of course because my english fucks severely and absolutely no one else did a presentation with as much slides and detail as mine did and honestly i think the teacher was just scared on what I’d do if i got a bad grade

but thats not the point of the story, just a highlight

then a couple months ago, since the class i was in was the Art Class, a teacher from a different subject asked us to illustrate one of the many poems that this one book had. I had different vague ideas going around in my brain but the deadline was so far away and i just didnt bother

until the deadline wasnt far away

it was very close, actually

(can you tell i write fanfiction)

so anyways adhd fucked me raw in the ass once again and i was still not done getting fucked by other things so fucking. supreme. deadline was close as shit and all the vague ideas took long ass time so I winged it as always and just read one of the poems at the end and got another idea then made the dollar store version of it and speedran that shit

and then time of presentation came and of course i was last and a buncha days passed with people just presenting their illustrations and all that wonderful time i could have spent making this shit more presentable but instead i had my cringe ass nae nae baby in my hands that i gave birth to too fucking soon for it to look more than just a sad fetus. literally any time its presenting time i either offer to go first or second or i get elected last i dont know how the fuck it happens but it happens. so anyways

instead in all those classes of classmates explaining shit with dead voices (we’re teenagers) i didnt listen in to what they said (i wouldn’t have even if i tried lmao) and instead just thought of how to present my work. i didnt have a powerpoint so through words alone it is

and then i just started coming up with beautiful tings to say about my work. How i used the most cheap materials i could find to not mock the author, who wrote in misery and made poetry out of misery, and it was now my turn to take those words engraved in pain and shape them around into something beautiful, over the ruins that got left behind, with resources available to the lowest of the low like library printers and cheap glue stick. make poetry from ruin to ruin, instead of the aristocrats noble poets of the past had focused on pleasing

and yall. i got the highest grade i’d ever gotten in anything from that class up until then. it still is

I’ve always been the goddess of just. making shit up as i go. a guy came up to me asking shit and i just lied on the fucking spot. no hesitation

and this has been a reoccurring thing, especially this past year, where i would have to present drawings (actual drawings) I’ve made and I just said some fancy cheesy shit and the teachers were swooned

and I don’t think it’s just me, either. I think this can extend to all people. the ability to look at the ugly, the neutral, the mundane, the devastation, and just make it into art. not by altering it per se, but simply talking about it. talking about things in a way that, although you might be winging every word not really believing what you say to be true, can make other people find them beautiful

i dunno, just my little thoughts

PERSONAL STORY 4 TOO??? OH THANK THE HEAVENS i was getting worried they’d just. “???? timeline who lol whats that??? hey guys look they **kissed** they’re DATING thats wild” After the most recent MR event but hey, im not complaining. poor translators though…. Deadlines must’ve been tight.

jhvJKHVKJH YEA SAME i was worried for a hot sec theyd delay perso story 4 til after the anniv banner but then i remembered that i did spoil myself for like one (1) scene in luke's perso story 4 and like....Oh Man, We Need That For Anniv, There's No Way In Hell We Can Go To Love Confession Without This Bit. and i assume it's the same for all the other boys too!!

im not too much of a stickler about timeline things for event cards (the most bothered i got was rrg part 1 because mc and marius were SO NICE to each other just OUTTA NOWHERE, nearly no teasing or marius! von! hagen!!! i was like hUH??) since i can always just wait before watching a card out of place in the timeline, but.....it's Different for anniv. this is a Key Moment in the relationship development for everybody, this one Has to be in order

huhu yea, i feel for the localization team, esp during sott. u could really tell that got rushed, what with all the typos. i get that tot wants to eventually somehow sync cn and global servers but....rushed events isnt the way bc it ends up with a lot of tiny mistakes that we Do pick up on and also i know a lot of players got majorly tuckered out by events one after the other.

personally, i think it's nice to have some downtime. global server can chill, it's okay, we've got fandom to keep us busy while waiting. or at least thats how it is for me, HAHA, i enjoy lulls in canon content coming out so i can make noncanon stuff without getting interrupted by a new thing making me lose my shit JHVKSJHDFK

but anyhoo, IT'S HERE!! ARRIVING!!!!! i am so excited u have no iDEAAAAAA

#genuinely been having some trouble focusing at work cuz im so giddy bout this JHVAKJHSFAKJ #asks #anon

longass post

I DONT CARE THAT IM LATE, i will do this bc i can

june tcc challenge by @sweet-but-stoned-tcc

1. Do you and your TC have any hobbies or interests in common? If so, do you talk about them together often?

ohh i wish, i mean, he seems like he cares about politics, and is okay with lgbt 😳 so that's very pog of him. he probably loves dogs (also looks like one) and he cares for bees 🥺 literally how more wholesome can a man get?

2. Does your TC ever talk about their childhood/teenage years? If yes, what were they like and what sort of childhood did they have?

i just know that in that time there were some political problems in our country, and i think that's why now he cares about justice. other than that, i'd have to guess, but i think he might have been a very quiet kid, it's visible that he's trying his best to be assertive sooo i think in the past he wasn't. OKAY NONO no analysis here just a wholesome little post no therapy

3. If you could choose one from the following from your TC, what would you choose? An hour alone with them to chat about what you want, a hug, a present, a handwritten note or then complimenting you in front of the class?

100% i'd choose a hug.

4. Do you think you’ll buy them a leaving gift? If so, what are you thinking of getting them?

i WANTED TO AAAA DONT REMIND ME i want but it's way too specific i dont wanna expose myself on tumblr 😰 also i wanted to give him flowers bc yes. bc who cares about gender roles. FLOWERS FOR M!!!!!

5. When and where did you first meet them?

hmmmm i wonder where... oh in class. yea. two years ago

6. What was your first impression of them?

i remember thinking yes, finally ill actually learn something, good teacher

then he was like a kind dad, he never yells, he helps everyone

now hes like a kind dadd- NO

7. Do they give out much homework in their classes? What type of homework do they commonly give out?

he gives us lots of assignments, but he never sets a deadline. which results in: no one ever doing those assignments. not even me lmao

but i actually enjoy doing hw for him sometimes :))) i mean ... for me. my future. yes. ofc.

it's usually not difficult, but this one time i asked him about one assignment, and he basically just read the task to me and did nothing to explain it further ʘ‿ʘ i was screaming inside my head. but he's cute tho 😁😊😁😊😁😊😁😊

8. Do they talk a lot in their classes or do they do more activities?

M talks a lot. which is absolutely amazing, because i can listen to his voice the whole lesson and remember his every single word 😵‍💫 and get good grades. and be the best student. and.. wait what was the que.. ohh.. yeah he talks and even tells stories about himself. i fucking love it, everyone else is asleep but it's so interesting to me O///_///O

9. What’s their funniest moment this far?

he's in general a very funny person because of one thing: DAD JOKES

also he's a god in being sarcastic, he literally threatens you with the biggest kindest smile on his face.

this one time a girl didn't wanna be examined, cause she didn't know anything. and he said "even bad grades aren't for free."

(she actually got a good grade)

10. What’s their cutest moment so far?

everything he does is a fucking cute moment

...alright so this one time M gave me a bad grade accidentally and then corrected himself, and he was so embarrassed about it, literally VISIBLY BLUSHING. cutest thing ever. also once i needed to talk to him and he was typing his password. he looked up at me with puppy eyes and slowly deleted the password..... which was literally just ••••• but okay i guess

alright that's enough for today!!!!

im gonna go uhh do normal people stuff now

okay so i wanted to share this post that i made a while back from my personal nsfw blog but i feel kinda embarrassed just reblogging it here and showing off the url to that blog publicly (i. literally have like 2 maybe 3 followers on this blog so far lmao) even tho like. i Do share the url w ppl who i trust and who Want to read long ass posts that go into indepth descriptions of my sexual identity, my sexual health, my desires/feelings with regards to sex, and my experiences w sex (w myself bc idk how to initiate a sexual encounter w another human being). you're welcome to dm me for the url if ur Really interested in reading turbo tmi content (it is all text btw. idk how to take nudes so those don't exist sorry)

ANYWAY i sometimes do thought dumps on there that involve nsfw topics like smut fanfic n stuff, so i've tried to brainstorm for my planned sskk fic on there before and well i actually found a wordy one i did where i rlly tried to explain in detail just exactly i Want to create and accomplish w this fic idea of mine. and even just re-reading the post myself, i found it to be very concise and illustrative of my goal for the fic's overall mood and tone. it was a very well-needed reminder for me to read my thought process from a month or so back when i was a bit more hyped to begin this project.

so yeah! anyway im just gonna copy and paste the whole damn post here bc i think it's an interesting read and good presentation of my inner thoughts wrt to what i'm hoping to write (hopefully) someday soon. and really... this fic idea is still barely in its infancy like there's still SO MUCH left to brainstorm and plan out like fuck!!! it's still too early to even start an outline doc (and that's like one of my fave parts of the fic writing process)

oh and some background context: a few months ago there was an event on twitter/ao3 (not sure if here on tumblr? i unfortunately don't follow many or any bsd/sskk blogs at ALL yet) for bottom akutagawa week which was HEAVEN for me 🥰🥰🥰 literally could not have been a better event to appeal to my interests in this fandom i s2g. and i got my hopes up that maybe i could write a lil fic in time to share during the week but that unfortunately didn't happen. anyway here's the post:

so i might not be able to write the bsd smut fic i was initially hoping to publish during the bottom aku fan week this week... but that doesn't mean i have to give up on this fic project completely! if anything now i don't have to worry about meeting an irrefutable deadline and i can technically do anything i want. so yeah i still wanna write this fic.

but first. i have to figure out What The Fuck i'm gonna write lmao cause i still don't fucking know. i was Intending to do a < 4k word one-shot fluffy getting together that somehow... transitions into a sex scene. and i still wanna do that... but i just. don't rlly have any specific detail or image or moment or dialogue line in mind to start building a story from. AND LIKE yeaH i know that sounds dumb cause it's like. if i don't have ANYTHING fantasized yet then WHY AM I EVEN BOTHERING to start this fic at all!?

.......im not really sure tbh lmao

nah it's cause i love these dudes and i wanna write something for them and interact w the sskk fan community.

i literally just. need to figure out the BARE BONES premise to this dang fic. like where tf is it gonna take place? is it mid/post-mission? is it at one of their flats? also WHERE are they gonna HAVE SEX???? im actually a big fan of sex scenes happening in non-conventional places (e.g. some dusty ass room in an abandoned building they were investigating or in a public restroom oR FUckinG in an airplane holy shit i haven't seen that one done yet lmao MILE HIGH CLUB ONE-SHOT LETS GOO) but yea idk maybe i should just. keep it simple and do what every other fic does and let them get down at ryuu's place in his luxuriously huge bed (that hasn't canonically been shown, let alone wherever he lives)

i should AT LEAST settle on how fast this fic is gonna be paced. tbh i kinda Always prefer sskk's first time being a bit... feverish and rushed. it just suits them best. maybe there’s a little angst or miscommunication of feelings/intentions thrown in before they Eventually get their shit/feelings together. but anyway i don’t wanna write that lmao that’s too complicated (but like. yeah. these are two Very complicated (i.e. traumatized) guys with a VERY complicated relationship so. yeah it’s actually kinda rare/weird to imagine things working out Too smoothly for them tbh).

while objectively that complicated/messy/aggressive type shit is their Brand, i would still like to keep things soft and gentle and Nice. that stuff is Not Impossible w these two ofc. it’s... tricky, but def possible. and i wanna achieve That. a getting together that is soft, hesitant, shy, and puts a heavy emphasis on Both of these men’s inexperience wrt romance and sex (that. is. my. Shit. they are both virgins and absolutely clueless and i Refuse to accept anything other than that. ......okay no... that’s not rlly true... basically all of my fave fics have a somewhat experienced atsushi and that’s okay bc like. how else is he gonna be able to Take Care of ryuu if he doesn’t already have an idea of how to take care of someone during sex? anyway ryuu is the most virginal virgin of all virgins to exist THAT IS INDISPUTABLE!!!!!)

so. i guess what i’m wondering is... how fast can i manage to pace the flow of the story while still keeping it soft overall. cause i don’t feel like writing a super super hot n filthy sex scene that’s charged and exhilarating and just a fucking blur of fucking. i wanna write feely, emotional sex. an aching intimate exchange of trust between them, still laced w hesitance and anxiety and sheer disbelief that this is really happening and that they can have this. both of them express unwavering consideration for each other’s comfort, constantly asking for consent and reassuring the other that “yes, i want this. yes, that feels good. yes yes yes.” they’re both taking careful, yet still enthusiastic, steps together. TENDERNESS is my ultimate goal here.

so yeah anyway i’ll try to keep thinking about this and hopefully i can actually come up w some ideas that i wanna implement into whatever this fic eventually becomes. just haven’t had enough time.... or horniess.... to get down to some real brainstorming yet lmao

because I'm having a Bad Time being patient... here’s some smaller kyo/tohru moments that i’m *particularly* excited to see animated so lets hyperfixate together shall we

1. Kyo doesn't understand how girls’ hair works

For some reason this scanlation translates their speech bubbles as continued conversation from the OTHER god tier kyoru moment a scene before- when Tohru lets it slip to Kazuma that Kyo cooked for her 😊. But in the yen press edition he’s asking if she can "put her hair back [in ribbons when she's done]?” and she's like “sure it’s easy!” and he's like “..wow.” I LOVE THE DUMBASS TEEN BOY ENERGY that radiates off this tiny convo. I luv when they're allowed to act their ages!!! In fact this entire chapter (while being peak kyoru flirting) is about how far kyo has come as a person, contrasted w how far he has to go still, as it’s revealed to the reader what kind of future is being planned for him ;___; But for now he’s just making lunch with tohru, unburdened for once in his damn life, flirting up a goddamn storm in his dad's kitchen. I will ascend when we see this animated!!!!!!!

2. Kyo punches haru

Kyo has exactly one (1) cool moment in that manga and it’s this. Not only does he deck haru for being a Disrespectful Dumbass, but he also says ***tohru’s name*** in front of everyone for the first time. It’s cool x2. Also we get this amazing panel after, which showcases Takaya’s insane ability to convey timing in still drawings. In real time the action probably takes place over the course of a second, but Takaya let’s us stay there for a moment. the reader + Yuki are left to think about the implications of what just unfolded, as Kyo’s hand lingers frozen in time on Tohru’s shoulder. poetic manga!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3. Late nite chat

Ugh too many things. 1. Once AGAIN kyo is able to see straight thru Tohru’s facade 2. Kyo opens up to her about his anxieties for the first time (?) since the true form arc, where they agreed to share their burdens and worries with each other 3. Kyo LAUGHING as she tugs at his flimsy magical bone bracelet that is literally the only thing keeping him from turning into a 10 foot monster. He completely and implicitly trusts her. it’s growth babey!!!!! 4. that leeeeaan. it’s love babey!!

4. Tohru hurts and so do I

If you know anything about me u know i’m all about increasingly stressed + angry mid to late series tohru. She just learned every damn secret in the sohma book and is feeling super fuckin stressed. She knows the weight this info holds but decides to share it with her best friend most trusted confidante anyway, bc surely she can talk to him about anything right?? After all, the fact that the curse HAS BEEN/CAN BE broken is hopeful right?? Kyo, of course, has given up hope long ago by this point in the story, and coldly shuts down her hypothetical question and by extension, her. and it huRRRRTTTTTTSSS. Obviously he kinda sorta patches things up with a flower (good job idiot!!!!) but it’s this early part of the scene that gets me every time. oof!!!!!!! Mid to late series Hot and Cold Kyo is where it’s at babeyyyyy

5. More pain!!!!!

this entire chapter is *poetic manga* and i know it technically comes before the previous scene but whatever!!!!!!! There’s aaaaaa lot to unpack here. The imagery of a *car* crushing Tohru’s scarf, Kureno as a cautionary tale for what Tohru could become if she keeps carrying everyone else’s burdens and burying her own, the pay-off of Rin’s dialogue about how Tohru is quietly falling apart and needs someone to “gently open that door” for her, aka Kyo, as he picks up her scarf for her and washes it clean (SYMBOLISM!!!!) it’s a lot. I always forget about this chapter, but it’s soooo gorgeously edited and super cinematic!!! i can't WAIT to see it animated!!!!

ok prepare yourself, this is gonna be a long one.

can we talk abt how you went and wrote a whole ass masterpiece with ‘believe it’???!! where do i even start? i literally found this at like 2am and it took me 2hrs to finish it because of how much i was literally SAVORING EACH PART OF IT. the attention to detail and backstory was fucking IMMACULATE. LORD. i could scream abt this fic for days. let me just say it’s been a HOT minute since ive read a good ass jimin fic. for some reason, there’s been such a shortage of jimin fics and even if i find them they’re not intricate, amazing stories like this. BUT HUNNYYY THIS ONE RIGHT HERE??!?!!?!! it gave me EXACTLY what i so desperately needed. it was everything i love in a fic. it got me invested in the story, the angst had my stomach in a twist, and. the fluff. oh god the the fluff and the resolution had my uterus screaming and my stomach in gymnastics doing flips and tricks like it was preparing for the olympics or some shit. i cant even count how many times i had to put my phone down to either recap my feelings with myself, to take a deep breath or just to scream into my pillow w joy. you know how bangtan made a song about kicking your blanket in excitement? this fic was that feeling. it was literally so sweet, i loved it so much it’s safe to say it’s in my top 5 jimin fics already. i just. you literally deserve all the praise in the world. holy shit. thank you for this i hope you go to sleep knowing you just did THAT. you really just did all that with your writing. yea. now while you sink that in, i really hope you have a great day love, you deserve it.

I just wanna say a big ducking THANK YOU to you, you’re an angel bc you’ve literally made my entire week with this ask…

I’m so so so happy you enjoyed believe it as much as I enjoyed writing it 🥺❤️ super honoured that you stayed up that late for me and actually liked the story 😩 I did try as hard as I could to make it intricate considering I had a short deadline so I’m happy yoh thought that, and PLS IT MAKES ME SO GLAD TO KNOW YOU WERE SCREAMING INTO UR PILLOW 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 I love that feeling so to know my fic did that..

and yeah honestly, the smut had me feeling a lil 😰😰😰😰 too , but how could I not write a sexy scene with red haired jimin? 😍😍

ahhh this has honestly made me so happy, thank you for the praise and for sending this, HAVE THE BEST DAY!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

my boyfriend never texts first

Remus just wants to not be the first one to send a message every once in a while. That’s not too much to ask, right?

relationship: romantic remrom, background remy and emile (also romantic)

warnings: major character death, extended mourning (secondary warnings- brief discussion of religious holidays, brief underage drinking mention, a lot of all-caps) notes: unrelated, human, hs/college au. virgil, emile, and remy are here too. If you need anything in the secondary warnings (or one of those latter three characters) edited out, please let me know and I can put that up for you!

____________________________________________________

Remus always texted him first. Always. It didn’t matter the situation, didn’t matter the time date place name face. Who what when where why. It first started when he texted hi roman :) when they first got phones; for whatever reason, Roman just never texted first. Either he’d call or they’d talk in person.

No matter. Remus could cope.

May 1:

8:37 PM tody i saw you by my locker 8:39 PM *today 8:42 PM why didnt you say hi?

May 2:

9:30 PM a teacher talked to me today 9:30 PM wanted to talk about how i’m doing after 9:52 PM well you know. he’s a sick bastard

Really, it wasn’t too much to ask for, was it? He just wanted to see him text first once in a while! May 7:

3:32 PM: by the way idk if you got this last time 3:36 PM: my class ring size is the medium 3:44 PM: hopefully you order it by the deadline :P 4:03 PM: no idea when the deadline is 4:20 PM: bLAZE IT 4:24 PM: sorry i have like 0 money so i got it from the consignment shop 4:31 PM: i hope you like synthetic rubies!! leaving them with ur dad 10:40 PM: update. i cried for four hours with your dad.

June 2:

7:30 AM: gRaDuAtIoN dAy!!! 7:32 AM: there’s cookies in the reception menu 7:35 AM: snickerdoodles your favorite [eyes] 10:02 AM: i’m getting some for u 10:05 AM: [kissy face] 7:40 PM: the announcement was Weird 7:43 PM: anyways i have the snickerdoodles (Remus couldn’t go over to where Roman was staying, so he left them in the living room. He knew Roman would appreciate them. Hopefully he’d come over (wait, probably not, given...))

Well, actually, he could understand why he never texted first. June 11:

12:14 PM: roMAN 12:16 PM: [Attachment: Remus_Picani-Kleitman_Acceptance_Letter.pdf] 12:18 PM: YEAHHHH 12:24 PM: I’m sure you got in too SEND ME YOURS WHEN YOU GET IT 12:32 PM: WE MIGHT SHARE A ROOM YEA 12:35 PM: [Attachment: celebration.jpg]

Everyone was probably saying that he ought to just move on, but to be honest, he couldn’t... Actually, to be honest, no-one had told him to move on to his face yet. In fact, everyone was surprised he was doing so well, given how bad the circumstances were! The situation was stressing him out so much, even his dads were gently advising him to rethink things. (Well, that was part of the territory with one of them being a therapist and the other being a barista.)

“I got y’all some kouign-amann from the cafe,” said Dad, putting it down on the counter. His shirt had SLEEP scrawled on it with a Sharpie; it was the one that Remus had made for him as a joke. He still wore it. Huh.

“Sweetie, what’s a queen amahn?” asked Papa.

“It’s a... er, it’s like a... this is kinda like a croissant that had dreams of a muffin tin and salted caramel. One for you, babe.... then one for Doodlebug-”

“Can I leave some for Roman?” asked Remus.

They exchanged a glance.

“Of course you can,” said Papa with a smile. “Your candle’s on the table. Also, I got the news about being accepted into university? Good job, kiddo. You know, that was your father’s alma mater.”

“Are you sure you want to go to school right away after...? No problem taking a gap year.”

Papa glared at Dad. “Be nice.”

“I’m sorry, Remus, it’s just...” Dad put down his coffee. “If you’re not ready, if you need more time-”

"I’m sure,” said Remus with a grin, trying to get rid of what he just remembered. “Trust me.”

“Please find a good way to put away the snickerdoodles, they’ve been there since last week!” shouted Papa.

June 12:

December 21

8:34 AM: hey, it’s snowing 9:13 AM: couldn’t help leaving you some hot cocoa. and snickerdoodles of course 10:12 AM: i love you Remus went to go help his dads with making breakfast, but by the time everyone was done cleaning and they had finished watching some shitty Hallmark movie, he remembered that he had left his phone upstairs. Going upstairs and looking at it, he felt something in him break.

[2 Unread: Roman <3, bf’s dad]

10:22 AM, Roman <3: Why are you texting this number? 11:15 AM, bf’s dad: Remus, disregard that last, I’m so sorry. I just found his phone and I saw only the recent message first

The phone started ringing. Remus answered it as quickly as he could.

“I’m so sorry Mr. Sanders I didn’t know that someone was actually getting these messages I thought the line was out,” he said within a few seconds before the person on the other side sighed.

“No, it’s quite all right. And Virgil’s all right, by the way, if you prefer. I... I was just looking through his things for the first time. You know, it being a holiday and all... Memories, things like that.”

“Yeah, I understand.”

“I just turned the phone back on, I’m getting a lot of messages.”

“Oh.” Remus stared at the wall, trying to come to terms with everything. “Well, I--”

“I’m not going to stop paying for his phone. I’m sorry, I just... I still have his voicemails on it, and I can’t stand the thought of it going offline either.”

“Right, I... I listen to it too.”

“I happened upon the last one he sent to you.”

“You looked at the messages?”

“I only looked over when I stopped getting new ones, but I saw the last question he sent you. For your ring size.”

“Yeah? He asked my ring size so that he could--”

“There’s no easy way to say this, but.. I found something of his. Can you come over?”

“I’m sorry, I can’t, but can you please tell me what it was? Please?”

“I really think I should tell you this in person.”

“Please, Mr. Sanders. Please, I... I can’t manage that.”

He sighed. “All right, Remus. I found an early acceptance letter to SJAU, and... and a ringbox.”

Remus felt his grasp on the phone grow weak. It fell onto the bed, Mr. Sanders’ voice still clear.

“I think he was going to ask for you to....”

“No, we... We were just out of high school, I-- that doesn’t make sense.”

“He always was one for those romantic gestures. There’s some poems here, too. A life-plan. I’m not sure exactly what malacology is, but--”

“Mollusks. Like octopi and squids.. Sorry for cutting you off, what was that?”

“Some of it’s in your handwriting, but one of the entries is ‘ask him’, for the day after... you know.”

God, he could hear his sad smile through the phone. He knew exactly how Mr. Sanders looked right now just talking to him, probably wearing that hoodie that was too big on him, in a dusty room full of things that used to belong to the most vibrant person that Remus had ever met.

But then Roman had died.

He was the most wonderful person, and he had just died.

“I’ll come over to deliver the ring to you. Is that okay?”

“Yeah. Yeah, that’s... that’s fine. Uh, call my dads first, though. They’re still not convinced I’m doing okay.”

“I understand. I’ll talk to you later, Remus.”

“Thank you, Mr. Sanders.”

The line went dead in his hands.

Remus held himself and wept.

December 28:

12:30 PM, Remus Picani-Kleitman: Mr. Sanders, would you like to come over for our New Year’s party? 12:34 PM, Remus Picani-Kleitman: It’s a tradition we had. You don’t have to if you’d rather not. 12:45 PM, Virgil Sanders: I’d love to go.

January 1:

12:00 AM: HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! 12:05 AM: [Attachment: :)] 12:07 AM: we are all smiling in this photo and for that i think we deserve a hug. 12:10 AM: this rings the most beuatifl thing i’ve ever fuckign seen. thank you,, 12:14 AM: never gonna get rid of it <3 12:16 AM: it looks Good on my finger 12:30 AM: jsyk your dad’s asking my dads for the kouign amann recipe 12:32 AM: thats a pastry, i left those for u a while back 12:39 AM: okay i’m crying a bit but honestly, i love u 12:44 AM: I love you so so so much, Roman

Somewhere out there, whether it was from some wonderful paradise or beyond the veil or even only in wishful thoughts, Remus knew that someone was saying I love you too.

If you can, how would you list your works from the fluffiest to the angstiest. And is there any work of yours you would consider doing a bad end for either/both izuku and katsuki?

hi anon!!!

ahh that’s hard Q to answer tbh mainly bc i have a lot of ‘verses, but i’ll try my best to categorize them and hopefully i dont miss any or much...! lol /o\ so TOP is the flulliest and bottom is cry your fucking heart out sort of thing. i think most of my fics are midtier range like a good 90% bc i like my usual tear jerker butw/ a firm dose of HEA at the end. some of these might have a really BAD, BAD tear jerker which is why it’s ranked so low but most honestly have good endings w/ the usual drama and tears sprinkle throughout.

murder kittens au - just bc they’re really cute and there isn’t any drama except kirishima being terrorized by fiercely codependent & murderous kittens bkdk

idol au - where izuku is the nation’s sweetheart who has the biggest crush on Ground Zero & katsuki may or may not like him back. it’s silly, fake dating, fandom playing supportive matchmaker, and feature power couple bkdk.

the TA au - where katsuki is profs who made a ton of students cry and izuku is the TA who they absolutely worship and make their class 100000% more bearable.

secretary au - excellent secretary izuku vs TERRIBLE BOSS katsuki, fill w/ hijinks, office, gossips, and everyone being terrified of katsuki but izuku is the only one to reign him in

doki doki ‘verse - katsuki is half kaiju & half human and he’s a damn boss AND NOTHING CAN TOUCH him except for that human boy who can completely destroy him w a single smile

soulbond dragon fic - lol i mean it’s just katsuki getting harassed by his dragon about courting izuku????

stepdad au - idk it’s just a bunch kids, their papa, and THEIR KACCHAN navigating how to be a family

accidental kink - kink navigation/exploration basically, doesn’t have a lot of drama or angsty bits

EVERYTHING THAT ISN’T mention on this list belongs in the midtier range: angsty but not too angsty + got enough fluff to balance it out

[we’re on to angsty tier list now] izuku in fantasyland - fucking punch me in the heart bc NOBODY WANTS HIM at first but THEY WILL!!!!!!

the fic where future izuku died and future!katsuki became ruthless, cold killing machine who traveled back to the past to protect bb!izuku and it’s lot of LONGING AND INTENSE PAIN FOR THIS BOY WHO WILL ONE DAY BE HIS EVERYTHING

the wintersoldier!katsuki - where katsuki got brainwashed by LOV and the only thing that kept him human is his hallucination of a green eyed boys who followed him around and cried for him SOBS

stepbros au - izuku loves katsuki and katsuki loves izuku; it’s as simple as that but they’re stepbrothers so i guess not so simple :(

fluffybottom ‘verse - break up, chasing after your dream vs love, and how you can always go home again and sometimes home is your ex and his ugly grumpy cat name fluffybottom

bakugou twins au - love triangle ft prototype!katsuki vs canon!katsuki over izuku’s affection

song of songs - tododekubaku abo kingdom au where izuku is married to shouto but is bonded to katsuki so in public tododeku are the happiest couple but whenever his heat hit he craves katsuki’s touch. it’s complicated and all party are suffering izuku out of guilt, katsuki out of jealousy and anger, and todoroki’s silence hurt and longing :S

the bodyswap au - where izuku’s current bf (shouto) and ex (katsuki) swap body due to a quirk that wouldn’t be as much of a problem if izuku still doesn’t love katsuki and he thinks katsuki and shouto are growing closer bc izuku leave for US for over a year to learn and todobaku bonded over their EPIC pining of this boy who RUINED THEM.

ot3 concubine kingdom au - where izuku is an omega slave taken from another kingdom and katsuki is the general who found him and brought him back for emperor!shouto. the court thinks izuku has the favor the emperor but is in love with the general but IN REALITY todobaku are in secret alpha/alpha forbidden relationship and is using izuku as shield to hide :((( it’s a lot of izuku feeling like he’s being used and lacking but slowly HE CLIMBS UP THE RANK and win their BOTH OF THEIR HEART and become the most powerful omega in the land lol i have a lot feels about this /o\

as;djfa;lsdjf I REALIZED the last super angsty fics are all ot3 related and i can’t even defend myself. they havent been written *technically* but i talked about them a lot on my twitter acc before and i want to write them one day!!!! it IS MY DREAM

idk if i ever thought a story should have a bad end??? i mean im pretty set in HEA so i dont really think that much about it unless it FEELS right... then im committed to it. OH right there is this one fic that i really hate, LIKE HATE bc i wrote it for a fest and i forced myself to finish it and i didn’t get exactly what i wanted bc i had to meet deadlines... (it’s ‘as the moon bears witness) and in that fic izuku got summoned to another world to save the ppl there, he met up w/ his party, and then he met and fell in love w katsuki who lost his parents and home to the demon king. SO BASICALLY the night before the grand battle w the demon king iizuku decided he’s going to stay w katsuki and not return to his world and they’re going to get marry *if* they both survived. SO izuku did SLAYED the demon king and i had two endings for this either he died in the process... in a sort of eternal sleep till one day they will call upon him again and katsuki stay but his tomb and guard him until the day izuku will awake again (it’s... thousands of years alone waiting for izuku :(((() or THE SECOND ending where izuku lives but his job is done and he got sent back to his world w/o ever saying anything to katsuki and katsuki go back to rebuild his kingdom but never take a consort bc he will always loves izuku and rules alone for thousands of years.... ANYWAY yea it’s a diff take to summon to another world /o\ AND it’s.... unhappy??? but idk i fascinated by it.

thanks for asking!!!! it gave me a lot of thoughts lol

(1/2) hey, this is a pretty broad request but i'd rly rly appreciate it if you could answer in as much detail as possible :) ive won a few things here and there for my poetry but if im being real i have no fuckin idea what im doing lol. i have literally no technical knowledge of poetry (e.g. how to manipulate form/metre/the diff types of poems) and as a result i write everything in freeverse. my biggest strength is probs being able to create strong/emotional imagery but like

hello! there is a Lot happening here but i will try!

i answered a question about writing in metre here. i learnt about forms and metre and stuff in like. year 7 english class, where we got told the names for different feet and also what sonnets and villanelles are. The Rest Is All Google. there’s a wiki page with a list of poetic forms and for various catullus translations i was just going like. oh that sounds cool! cinquain time babey!

but also i only really write metrical/formal poetry when i’m translating things and most of my own stuff is free verse…… or is it?????? imo free verse literally! doesn’t! exist! first of all because lots of “free verse” poetry secretly has metrical lines. one of my fave poems is postscript by seamus heaney and for a While i was like. how is the ending so Familiar and Conclusive! and then i noticed that the final line and also a bunch of other lines are Secretly Iambic Pentameter. free verse is also Fake because it is not Free. formal poetry feels like way less effort to me because with a sonnet, you Know where the lines have to end. there are fewer Decisions To Be Made. but to make “free” verse not just prose with linebreaks, you have to think about Every Single Decision! you have to find the best place to end each line and get the sounds right and make sure the rhythm of every line fits together right! and you can figure out how to do That by reading free verse which is good, and seeing what lines start and end on and why it works, and by reading free verse which is Bad (dare i say r*pi k**r) and trying to figure out why the linebreaks are where they are (it’s arbitrary). the tldr is that once you can recognise formal/metrical things, you can notice them in the poetry that you read, and then see what effects they create, and then do that yourself. nice!

The Content Of A Poem However! idk if it’s technicality which adds to the meaningfulness of a poem so much as how the meaning is expressed. which yea is in words which are arranged technically, but is also in the choice and arrangement of images and stuff. poems That I Like i feel have a Cool Idea which is then expressed in Cool Imagery…. but it is the idea that is the cool and important thing. which isn’t to say that an interesting image can’t develop into an interesting idea, but that if a poem is just oh ichor pomegranates hands oh darling [reference to greek myth] teeth then like. what does that Say. is there actually anything to untangle behind that. sometimes? anyway. in a display of hubris im gonna go through how i wrote my timothy corsellis prize poem as an example of how to do whatever the fuck im doing

The First Thing is figuring out what a poem is About. i read a bio of anna akhmatova and Made Some Notes, and then read the lines abt cuneiform in requiem and went oh! gilgamesh! -> people and writing are both clay -> the idea that people are stories as much as writing is -> the fragility of clay as either writing or people

then i did some Thinking about how the only mention of writing in requiem is the cuneiform, but akhmatova couldn’t actually read cuneiform. which lead to the tension between text as immortalising or incriminating. thinking about Text made me think about Textiles, and then i got the image of requiem as like lace. “history with the gaps already woven in” stays all the way until the final version.

THEN i was thinking about differences between lace and clay. lace has holes in it, but memorialisation through textile production is still memorialisation through Production, whereas cuneiform holds memory in Impressions, which are Absences. so then i made a list of things with holes in that i might want to use elsewhere in the poem. near the end it kinda turned into fun and related images that are Not about holes

next is more thoughts abt the cuneiform image in requiem and what it Means, re: a face only memorialises when it is near death or affected by death? here is where i figured out that i wanted to keep the lace image, but say that requiem is Not like that, because memory is an Absence, and because for akhmatova a text/textile would be incriminating. “what she describes, she cannot write down” happened here, referencing one of the quotes at the start of requiem, where a woman in the prison queue asks akhmatova if she can describe it, as in, is it describable at all?

once i had the central ideas of people as unreadable texts / memorials without words / tension between memory as presence or absence, i tried doing. a Coherent Draft. stanzas here started “the winter” but in the final version start “in those days” because i realised. if you’re talking about how it’s Cold, you don’t have to mention that it’s winter, and also to reference an akhmatova poem that repeats “in those days” a bunch. it might be pwoah?

when i figured out most of the images i wanted and had vaguely functional sentences i Clarified the ideas / order of ideas / message i wanted in the poem so i wouldn’t get confused, and then i rearranged bits of drafts, and then rewrote several more drafts. “what she describes, she cannot write down” turned into the opening “she can describe this, but not write it down. / to write it down would be like making lace: // history with the gaps already woven in, unravelling” etc etc which! you may notice! means the first two lines are iambic pentameter, which is Neat Like Lace, but the line about Unravelling is where the metre Unravels also. i also just made the sentences Nicer. stuff like adding in sound effects so lines resonate with one another (drown/down/sound at the end of successive lines) and splitting the poem into numbered sections, which i decided to do because it didn’t feel like a continuous narrative so much as several approaches to an idea, and also bcs requiem itself is split up like that.

And Then Finally i came up with a title like. 4 minutes before the deadline for sending the poem in :/

hopefully that was Vaguely Useful? most of my poems start with a Fun Idea, develop through me overthinking an image for that idea that i think of while half asleep, Get Really Complicated And Accumulate Imagery, get Clarified and also tidied up, and then submitted right before the deadline. The End.

#Let's Hope The Readmore Works #also. wow talking about drafts is Fun #r #Anonymous

stargazing w/svt

inspired by @babybluescoups cuz she put me in soft hours by telling me she went stargazing tonight which ended up turning into crackhead hours in our convo lmfao

i am so sorry if this sucks it’s late and i’m bad at writing LOL

ok so

it’s like 7pm and after a long and tiring day at work, you get home with the full intent of just eating your dinner and going to bed bc you’re just so over everything

so you eat whatever leftovers you have from last night bc ain’t nobody got time to cook smfh what are we? responsible adults? pffffffft as if

and then change into your sweats and get all cozy and whatever

but suddenly it’s like 10pm and you realize

you’ve been sitting around after dinner just messing with your phone bc turns out, you weren’t really THAT tired, just tired of work and in need of a break

and now you’re bored as he*k

you look out the window and it’s a nice night, not a cloud in the sky

plus it’s just the absolute perfect temperature (you decide what perfect temps are for you boo)

so you decide to go on a lil walk partially bc maybe you ate way too much food and now you feel obligated to “exercise”

you decide to see if any of the boys wanna come with bc the more the merrier!! so you message the group chat but...nobody responds :(

dang it guys stop being so busy and responsible just rest for once would ya

it’s at that moment that you get a message from jihoon, who says he’s been cooped up in the studio all day since he’s had a lot of work to finish

and he’s wondering if you’d mind bringing over a charging cable if you’re on your way out anyways cuz soonyoung stole his the other day and didn’t give it back and he totally forgot so now he’s definitely gonna strangle soonie oops

and you’re like yea sure i gUESS SO even tho u won’t hang out with me tonight :(

so you grab your charging cable and head over to the studio, but not after stopping by the convenience store to grab some snacks bc like even though you ate a lot of food for dinner...there’s always room for snacks

once you get over there, jihoon is tapping away at his computer, working on mixing something new

and lemme tell ya

the boy looks TIRED

literally like he probably hasn’t slept in 3 days

and you know that if you just leave him there he’s probably not going to stop any time soon

so you take it upon yourself to stop him by taking his headphones away from him and tell him that he should take a break and go do something fun

and then you remember

it’s a nice night out!!

no clouds in the sky!!

and you know what that means:

s t a r g a z i n g ! ! !

so you pitch the idea to jihoon who of course, being the workaholic he is, insists that he can’t bc he’s got a deadline to meet

and in between your bickering as you’re trying to convince him to come with you

his stomach growls. like. SUPER loudly.

*cue awkward silence*

remember how he said he’s been cooped up in the studio all day? well. he literally meant it. the boy didn’t even go get any food.

you offer him a snack, but on one condition:

“let’s go up to the rooftop and watch the stars!! you probably gotta clear your head and get some fresh air anyways”

jihoon: but I have a deadli- *cue stomach growl*

also jihoon: ok fine

you: I’ll buy you whatever food you want after

jihoon, suddenly the most excited person in the world: OK LET’S GO

so you two head up to the rooftop, making sure to bring a blanket to spread out and sit on cuz like...you can’t go stargazing without that ya feel

once you get up there, it’s so so SO pretty

all of the stars are out and they softly illuminate the sky we’re just going to pretend that light pollution doesn’t exist ok

and because lowkey you’re mad that nobody responded to you in the group chat

you take a pic of the view, and then a pic of jihoon staring up at the stars, and send it to the boys

now that,,,,really get’s everyone’s attention cuz they all have serious fomo

soonyoung is the first to respond

soonyoung: wow tfti omg jihoon’s on a date????

jihoon: i will literally end you

you: i literally invited you all and nobody responded

everyone else: wHEN???

you: *sends screenshot of you asking them if they wanted to hang*

everyone else: o

at that moment, you decide to put your phone on silent and just enjoy the ambient sound of the city cuz we all know how rowdy gcs can get and plus these boys never shut up

but 5 minutes later...you hear the door open

and it’s none other than soonyoung, who, in his gross and sweaty state after working on some choreo downstairs, immediately plops himself down on the blanket between you and jihoon

“oi I can’t believe you guys were gonna keep this pretty view all to yourselves HMPH”

“yea well leT ME REMIND YOU THAT AGAIN, I INVITED Y’ALL AND YOU IGNORED ME”

“oops”

a few minutes of bickering later, the door opens again to reveal jun, hao, and chan, who ran upstairs to look for soonyoung cuz he left in the middle of practice lol

and then wonwoo, seokmin, and mingyu who were hanging out downstairs and decided to come up to see what was going on

and then seungkwan and vernon who were chilling at the dorms before coming over

and finally cheol, jeonghan, and josh who were busy being old idk

and so finally, the whole gang’s there

and you’re all just chilling on the rooftop, enjoying the view and the hushed conversation because nobody wants to ruin the relaxed mood

and this goes on for a good hour or so

when all of a sudden

gyu’s stomach grumbles

lowkey jihoon’s did too but we all know how loud gyu is...and guess what? his stomach is loud too

jihoon: way to ruin the mood ya hoe

gyu: 🥺

everyone else: BRO

but jihoon is reminded that he’s actually eaten almost nothing the whole day

and suddenly remembers that you said you’d buy him food after this...

“yo y/n are we still getting food after this? we should probably go cuz it’s getting late and SOMEONE’S stomach ruined the mood anyways”

gyu: why you gotta clown me like that bro

you: um DUH did you forget that you ate a bunch for dinner AND had snacks? smh. SIKE! #TREATYOSELF2K19

seungkwan: ooooooh let’s all go get food and not tell mingyu!!

gyu: i’M LITERALLY RIGHT HERE

everyone else: oh? huh? y’all hear sumthin?

gyu: 🥺🥺🥺

anyways y’all end up heading down to the convenience store and all get ramen bc what else would you eat? healthy food? pfft

so all in all, it ends up being a pretty good night

Hi I'm shouting at you bc you know I just struggled w my final essay-- imagine being with cal and you suddenly remember you have a final due in 2 hours so he helps you write it and when it's done you cuddle and laugh bc "that's the worst final essay ever" and its v soft

Happy finals time of year everybody, even though I am pretty damn sure that there is no such thing as a happy finals time of year.

Cal was back from tour and recording 5SOS4 and didn’t have any recording sessions this week, you only had select classes this week due to the fact that it was finals week, both of you being relatively free the two of you have been spending every spare moment together. The two of you were nestled together on his couch, you had been spending the night there all week and today was the one that neither of had anything to do, or so you thought. You were watching some random movie that you had stumbled on while looking Netflix, when the main character started ranting about having to write a paper that they really didn’t want to and something in your brain clicks,

“Oh fuck” you spoke sitting up causing Cal’s arms to fall limp at your sides

“What, is everything okay?” Cal seemed concerned at your sudden change in demeanor

“I have a final essay due in,” you pulled out your phone, turning it on to see that you only had 2 hours before you had to turn it in , “2 hours, fuck, sorry Cal, I gotta go do this,” you pulled away from his embrace and padded down the hall to Cal’s bedroom, setting yourself up on your bed, computer on your lap and frantically typing to get something on the page so it wasn’t just an ominous and intimidating white page staring back at you.

You were to busy typing away that you hadn’t noticed the sound of water boiling or Calum’s footsteps nearing your station on his bed

“Babe…baby… can you hear me?” he was trying to coax you out of your trance

“Hmm, oh, um, yea, what do you want,” you didn’t tear your eyes away from the screen, too focused on the lines of words that were growing on the page.

“Babe, I made you some tea, here drink up,” He handed you the mug of warm peppermint tea, you took it gratefully and took a sip, before returning to work

“Thank you Cal, that was so sweet,” you spoke again not looking at him, you expected Cal to leave after that but you were wrong, he took a seat next to you on the bed and ran his hand up and down your back in an attempt to soothe the tension that was building from stress and being hunched over a computer,

“I am almost done!!!” you proclaimed with excitement and you expected Cal to give you a hug or something but he got up and walked away, you didn’t have time to see what was happening because your deadline was near and you still needed to finish your conclusion.

“Done,” you sighed as you clicked the submit assignment button that sat at the top corner of you browser, falling back on to the pillows at that top of the bed, sinking into the trying to relieve the panic that had been building. Soon you realized that the only thing that was going to calm you down was Cal

“Cal?” you called out

“In here my love,” he called from the other side of the bathroom door, you made your way to the door, finding it closed you knocked lightly

“Can I come in, babe?” you called through the door

“Yes, of course,” you entered the bathroom, it was dark and smelled of vanilla, the bath tub full and bubbling over, the only thing illuminating the room were 5 candles, Cal sat on the edge of the bath with a cup of wine,

“What’s this for?” you asked, shocked at the romantic gesture from you beau

“You got really stressed by your final so I thought you could use something nice to calm you down,”

“Cal, you shouldn’t have, this is too sweet,” he blushed “But I will only do it on one condition,” he raised an eyebrow

“And what is that condition?”

“That you join me,”

“Whatever you want my love,”
