Yours Truly
This is part 11 to my Skz poly fic. I'm glad you guys seem to enjoy it these have been kinda soothing writing. This one's kinda short but I promise next chapter will be longer.
Previous<<<<< Next>>>>>
Warnings: mentions of sex, doesn't go in description though
It had been 4 days since that date. You were kinda surprised and upset that you hadn't gotten a text or a call from any of the boys. Maybe you should've texted? Well that's what you were doing now.
You only had 2 of their numbers. Felix and Changbins. You decided to text Changbin knowing he'd probably text back sooner or at least you had hoped he would.
'Hey Bin I was wondering if you wouldn't mind making a chat with all of the boys?'
You watch as you look back at your computer screen. You were elbow deep in notes and typing up papers for work. You weren't even at the office though. You had gotten an email from your boss letting you know that the office was still closed and it probably would be for a while longer.
You didn't mind though. You didn't hate the work but you hated the people. They were all stuck up thinking they were too good and talking behind each other's backs. If the money wasn't good you'd probably quit. It was such a toxic working environment.
Your phone lights up.
'Of course I don't mind.' Changbin texts back.
His text brought a smile to your face. Within seconds you get texts from all 8 boys.
'Hi Y/N it's Chan' one text says.
'Im sure you already know who I am 💋' you chuckle of course you knew who it was.
'No she doesn't all she knows is that you sent a kissing emoji Ji' You laugh at that knowing it was Felix. Of course it was Felix who had always joked with Jisung.
'Don't be stupid already you two I'm Hyunjin' the text says.
'We'll come in Seungmins room right now' Felix texts and you laugh.
'I wish you guys would' Hyunjin texts back.
'Do not come in my room' a text says from who you assume is Seungmin.
'Dont test us' Jisung texts.
'You guys won't' Hyunjin texts back then there's no reply from either of them.
Instead there's another text. 'See now this is why I lock my room door 😑' Seungmin says and you laugh.
'Ignoring our 3 ridiculous boyfriends I'm Minho' a text says.
'It's Jeongin, I.n. or Innie whichever you'd like to call me' Jeongin says and you smile at his words remembering how the boys had called him Innie when you first met.
'Hi Innie' you text back.
'Hi Y/N' Jeongin says back.
'You already have my number but it's Changbin.'
'Well I'm sure you guys all know who I am then' you text in the group chat.
'Of course we do' Chan texts back.
'Hows work going' Jisung who is now back asks you.
'Its been taking up most of my time even though I'm not at the office and probably won't be for a while' you text back.
'Oh why aren't you at the office' Minho asks.
'They're adding a new floor which will probably end up taking a month or so' you text back.
'Well if you're not busy tomorrow could you stop by and help me redye my hair blonde the roots are starting to show and I hate the uneven colors' Felix texts.
'Why not me again' Changbin asks.
'As much as I love and cherish you and would do literally anything for you I'm not letting you help me again you almost had my hair fall out' Felix texts and you laugh.
'I literally read the directions' Changbin says.
'You read the directions but didn't set a timer after 30 minutes I asked you how much longer you said like 10 minutes then after the 10 I asked you again and you said a little bit longer it was almost an hour before I washed out the hair dye and I was terrified my hair was going to fall out 😭' Felix says.
'That's fair' Changbin says and you laugh.
'So will you Y/N please 🥺' Felix asks you.
'I'll try my best to get all my work done for tomorrow done today and then head over there and help you tomorrow 😊' You reply back.
'Thank you so much!' Felix says and it makes you smile.
'Of course' you text.
'Since you're coming over tomorrow why don't you help me cut the ends of my hair' Jisung says.
'Dont you guys have hairdressers?' you ask.
'Yeah but they're not you' Jisung says and it makes you smile.
'Okay I'll come help you but I'm reminding you Ji I'm not a hairdresser' You say to him.
'Don't be upset when your bald tomorrow Ji' Hyunjin texts and you laugh.
'Im not that bad' you say.
'Hey if I'm bald tomorrow at least I'll be bald and happy knowing Y/N cut it' Jisung says and you laugh.
'Ji I love you and I'd do anything for you but if you go bald you won't ever see me again' Hyunjin says.
'So you love me for my hair is what I'm hearing' Jisung texts.
'Please do not make Jisung bald' Minho says.
'I wasn't planning on it😂' You text.
'I'd be upset bc I like pulling his hair during sex' Hyunjin says and your surprised by that text but quickly realize it was Hyunjin and Jisung asking you and teasing you about Felix so you weren't as surprised.
'Really Hyunjin? Now was the time to text that' Chan texts.
'Now or never and it's true so what's the problem' Hyunjin texts.
'Well I'm not making Jisung bald so you'll still be able to pull his hair' You text.
'See Y/N gets what I'm saying are you a hair puller too?' Hyunjin asks. You laugh.
'You don't have to answer that' Seungmin texts.
'I don't mind but to answer your question it depends on the person' You texts back.
No one texts back for a second. Maybe you shouldn't have answered that.
'You're driving me crazy' Hyunjin texts back.
'You're not the only one' Jisung texts.
'You have no idea the effect you have on us do you' Minho texts.
You're surprised by all those texts and look away from your phone for a moment trying to calm yourself.
Another buzz brings you back to reality.
'Stop being horny we need Y/N to finish her work so she can can come over tomorrow' Felix texts.
'Don't pretend you weren't affected by it Lix' Hyunjin texts.
'Like I said let's let her finish her work'
'Fine' Hyunjin says.
'Bye Y/N!!!' Jisung texts.
'Bye Y/N see you tomorrow' Felix texts.
'See you tomorrow' Hyunjin texts.
'Bye Y/N have a good night' Chan texts.
'Hopefully if I'm not busy with work I'll see you tomorrow' Minho texts.
'I'll see you tomorrow Y/N' Jeongin texts.
'We'll see you tomorrow' Seungmin texts.
'Sorry for the craziness we'll talk tomorrow' Changbin texts.
'Bye you guys I'll see hopefully all of you tomorrow' You text back.
With that you turn off your phone going back to your computer. You really needed to finish all your work for tomorrow so you could go over there.
You didn't realize how much you loved seeing the boys and how much you missed talking to them. They all had their unique personalities and you loved that.
You needed to finish this work so you could see them so you push them from your thoughts for now typing again on your computer.

Hey, i dont know if you remember me but im the anon that sent you and ask about how i had a final work for my literature class being about creating a ring in hell inspired by the Divine Comedy, so if you are interested this is what i made:
First, we had to create a new sin that wasnt mentioned on the original text and then design the ring around it and a punishment , so i choose egocentrism.
I really liked the idea that Vivziepop had for a circus in hell, so i kinda of stole it, but i dont feel bad for that because that lady already stole a lot of things from other people 🤭.
I used my idea for a rewrite of "vivziepop's take on hell" where the circus asspect actually matters (instead of being only used for aesthetics) and the sinners are the ones being punished and tortured by being forced on torture acts, in this case, humiliating acts that destroy their pride and ego.
I made an example by showing some guy who in life was a really strong warrior, and that made him belive he was better than anybody else and would constantly tell other people they should admire him and that they would never be as strong as him.
In hell, he now lost all his muscles, being really thin. And he would have to perform the act of weight lifting, since being strong is what made him so egocentrical on life.
But the things he had to lift were things that normally are really light, like pillows and feathers. But they would be insanely heavy on the dude, making him feel like he was the weakest and it would always ends with the guy droping on the floor, crying and tired. Then he would be forced to repeat everything again.
And like that, every sinner would have its own circus act that was designed to degrade them and attack the thing that made them so prideful on life.
And the ones who perfomed these acts and tortured the sould were a new species of demons a came out with called the "cirquimps" (i couldnt came out with a better name sorry lol). I even made a drawing on how the look:
They are short, with big black eyes that look souless, having 3 arms (2 are "normal", and one is long and formed like a whip), and they all wear clothes that resemble clowns and circus artists.
Then i made the story of Dante seeing this ring.
So, in my country, the systems of notes is from 1 to 12; 1 being the lowest obviously, 6 being aceptable, and 12 being the best of all.
In this job, the teacher gave me a 11! She said it would have been a 12 if it wasnt because i forgot to make the story from Dante's perspective, but she loved it!
And thats the story of how my ideas of rewrites for Vivziepop's hell gave me a great grade for my final proyect, thank you Viv for creating such a bad take on hell that helped my form better ideas!
Well, there you go! Congrats on your 11, Anon, it sounds well deserved!

The first week without Bradley was a bit hard, even if he woke her up with morning kisses and breakfast for the two of them, she missed his presence inside the apartment. Which was so silly, she didn’t want to be the clingy type of girlfriend who couldn’t handle being apart from her boyfriend for too long, plus she’s been without him for two months before. She could handle a few hours.
On the bright side, her ankle was already showing progress albeit small. She still couldn’t put weight on it but it wasn’t pulsating with pain every second she moved to adjust herself either on the bed or on the couch. Jolene also got used to it quite quickly, almost as if this was already her apartment before.
Beatrice did try to distract herself the best she could, with Netflix or video games but that wasn’t working. That’s when she grabbed her drawing supplies from her suitcase and started doodling on the couch. She just allowed her creativity to go wild, she had no plans in mind really.
Since she couldn’t sit cross legged she lied on her stomach to draw while she was on his bed with Netflix running in the background. She made sure to open her drawing book wide open so no pencil shavings or anything of the sort would land on his sheets. Sometimes she’d send Rooster a text when she knew it was his lunchtime, she didn’t want to bother him otherwise, just to let him know she was fine and what she was doing.
He always responded quickly, mentioning that the best part of his day was when she talked to him. Beatrice blushed so hard when she saw it she thought his bed would catch on fire, covering her face with both hands and squealing into her palms like a teenager in love. 
She told him he just wanted to make her blush and he replied with a ‘absolutely ;)’ like the smooth man he was. Beatrice’s smiles never faltered even when he was away, which helped in dealing with his absence before he returned to his apartment.
Speaking of his apartment, she had this very odd fear of messing his things up with her own stuff. Even if he said there was no problem, she didn’t want to take too much of his space, she didn’t want to bother him about it. While he did give her a drawer and a side of the closet for her to use, which smelled so good by the way, she tried to keep her things apart from his so he wouldn’t grab anything by mistake.
Just for safety, she thought, just so his things will remain in their usual spots. While opening his closet to grab one of her jackets since she got cold, she couldn’t help but run her eyes over his shirts. Several Hawaiian shirts, so many she lost count halfway, but she couldn’t help the smile on her face as she thumbed through them, nor could she help herself when she brought the fabric to her nose.
She was violently reminded of the time she smelled the pillow he sat against on the first time he visited, how guilty she felt and how she thought that’d be the only time she’d be able to smell his cologne. If only she knew.
She hummed happily, closing her eyes with the colorful fabric up her nose and a smile on her lips. Every single one of his shirts smelled like his cologne and fabric softener, with the cologne being the most predominant smell of all, much to her joy. 
With a sigh she let the shirts drop back into the closet and shut the door, blushing severely while keeping her grin. She however looked back at his desk where her phone currently was, a loud ping calling her attention.
She wondered if it was Evelyn giving her more information on the Karen woman and the Kappa team, since the woman came in growling and acting like a lunatic saying the game was rigged and that her daughter’s team should’ve won. She wished she was there to see it, because Evelyn obliterated that woman without even raising her voice and when the woman tried to act all high and mighty, Evelyn’s father stepped in and told her to back off.
Evelyn said that it was the first time she wasn’t mad her father intervened in her affairs…interestingly enough, after Beatrice asked if she went out with Hangman Evelyn stopped responding. Maybe that’s her finally replying to her question! Beatrice winced while making her way over to the desk, then hopped back to Bradley’s bed to check her phone.
“Hey! I don’t think you know me but I was the photographer for your aunt Martha’s wedding? When I sent her the pictures she told me to separate a few and send it to you! That’s how I found your Instagram, do you have an email account I can send them to?”
Beatrice blinks while reading the message, then shakes her head as she types back a positive response and the email, thanking the woman and making a mental note of thanking her aunt too. The email arrived within seconds and Beatrice scooted closer to the headboard so she could stretch her legs and get comfortable while opening the pictures.
She let out a soft gasp when the pictures loaded for her to see, there were only three of them but it was enough for her to feel her heart vibrating with happiness. Indeed they were only pictures of her and Bradley at the times they didn’t even know there was a camera there. The first picture was when she walked out of the bridesmaid chairs and greeted Brad out of the chairs, her flower crown in her hand and his own pulling out a tiny leaf out of her skin.
The second one was after he just played the piano to his heart’s content and she had leaped towards him as soon as he was done, with him picking her up and the two looking at each other like there was no one else around them.
The final picture was of the two dancing, more specifically of Beatrice laughing and Bradley holding her by the waist as Signed,Sealed,Delivered played in the background, his mouth smiling while kissing her cheek. She didn’t know if her aunt asked the photographer to take the pictures because they all seemed like…they were the main focus instead of the whole ceremony. She was sure there were pictures of her aunt and uncle together, but these look very specific.
Beatrice bit her lower lip, flipping through the images over and over again, her cheeks hurting from smiling so much. Now looking from an outside view, it was so clear to see how much happier she looked and how much Bradley looked at her with pure fondness in his eyes.
Beatrice slid down further on the bed, holding the phone close to her face as she looked back at the dancing picture. The focus was on them, everything and everyone else was blurry, the fairy lights above their heads made them look like they were glowing and they looked so happy to be there.
It also came to her attention that…they had no pictures of them together. Which wasn’t something she considered until now, she didn’t really feel like it was a bad thing? They were having too much fun together to bother taking pictures…unless Brad wanted to. But he’d tell her, right? He would, he’s very open and honest about their relationship. Would he be upset if she..shared this with others?
She should check.
She knew he was still on break, so she had to be quick before he was back to work.
Bea (13:35)
Roos!I need to ask you something! It’s really quick, I promise.
Roos (13:35)
Of course gorgeous, what is it? There’s nothing wrong right?
Bea (13:37)
No,no, I’m fine. It’s just the photographer at my aunt’s wedding took some pictures of us and…I wanted to show them to you and ask if it’s okay if I posted it? On IG i mean.
img.1 img.2 img.3
She chews on her lower lip nervously as she waits for him to reply, she knows he’d seen it because the gray bubble popped up then disappeared as soon as she sent them. What if he’s not ready? It could happen right? 
Roos (13:40)
You don’t even have to ask me! Of course you can! God, you look so good all the time it’s unfair. I saved the pictures on my phone too :) so we can both post it.
Bea (13:40)
Really? 
Roos (13:43)
Angel, baby, sweetest girl on this planet, yes of course. I also have a new phone wallpaper ;) that I can look wherever I miss you and remember how gorgeous you are.
Bea (13:43)
!!! You are a sweet talker…but I’m glad to hear that :3 I’ll leave you to it now, okay? I just wanted to make sure.
Roos (13:44)
It’s okay babe, you know I don’t mind hearing from you. I’ll see you later okay? I love you.
Bea (13:44)
I love you too! See you later!
She sighs, dropping the phone to her chest as she smiles in relief. She shouldn’t be as excited as she was about posting some pictures, right? But it wasn’t just the pictures, it was…them, their relationship, their time together that she cherished so much and now she could share it to the whole world to see.
Biting her lower lip again, she wasted no time in opening Instagram and posting the pictures and tagging him of course. She wondered what sort of caption would work, typing and erasing several times before finally writing ‘A very fun time, with the right person <3’ and blushing hard as she posted them.
She couldn’t help but look at the pictures, then at the caption and just smile so hard her cheeks hurt. It was real, it was so real she couldn’t even believe it. It was like now it hit her that the two were together, they loved each other and that she could have a man like Rooster in her life.
Beatrice squealed against her palms, tapping her good foot on the bed excitedly like Thumper from Bambi, giggling to herself. This was like a real life rom com and she was the main character and honestly she was very okay with that.
It doesn’t take long for people to comment and like the picture, her smile only broadening when she’s notified about a picture she was tagged into as well. Immediately she opens it to check and she almost melts into the mattress at the caption he wrote
‘That smile could put the sun to shame. <3’
She immediately covered her face with the pillow and screamed in delight, her face burning so much she could feel the warmth seeping through the stuffing. Beatrice felt her eyes watering and she couldn’t help the tears of joy that came out of her eyes, wetting the white pillow cover. 
Beatrice sniffled quietly when she pulled the pillow away, wiping her eyes with her knuckles and a teary smile, laughing shakily at herself, “It’s so silly, why am I crying?” she asks herself, trying to contain her tears of joy without much success Jolene rushes into the room with her sock monkey, looking at her owner with wide brown eyes and her ears up, agitated from hearing Beatrice’s soft sniffles.
“Jojo, it’s okay,” the brunette tries to tell the pittie, who just pushes her sock monkey onto the bed with her snout and holds herself upright with her front paws, whining quietly “It’s okay baby,I’m okay.” Beatrice pushes herself to a sitting position, cupping Jolene’s big head with her palms, pressing her nose to the pink snout, “I’m very happy, you know? I am so happy.”
Jolene licks Beatrice’s face,wiping some tears away in the process with her tail wagging vigorously, her back legs tip tapping on the bedroom floor as Beatrice chuckled, kissing the dog’s head after wiping her face the best she could, “Now let me get out of bed so I can wash my face, you slobbery machine.” she says lovingly, giving Jolene her sock monkey back and patting the pittie’s butt so she could move out of the way.
While she is in the bathroom washing her face, she hears the constant notification sounds coming from her phone in the back pocket of her sweat pants. She wipes her face and pulls out her phone to check who else commented on it, furrowing her eyebrows and tilting her head at a strange name that showed up on the list of likes, a mix of numbers and letters…she shrugs, it was probably a bot, it had no picture and no bio so she just reported and blocked it to be done with.
But she stared down at the screen for a while longer, frowning at the blocked account’s page, something…was off but she couldn’t pinpoint what exactly it was that made her so confused. She printed the screen for safety and then sent it to the girls' group chat, maybe it was someone else’s account they didn’t know of.
Maybe someone from college? Who knows, it’s hard to figure people out nowadays.
Hopefully not from High School, dear God, she hoped no one from back then followed her now. The last thing she heard about her high school was how her class representative wanted to make a ten years old reunion but was still organizing everything and that was months ago, ever since then it was radio silence.
It took her many years to work through the trauma of her time in school and while it was still within the backs of her mind, it’s not like it controlled her like it did before.  And while it’s been over ten years she didn’t really have a connection with anyone from her school, not like she had with the girls from college and so on, she didn’t have a reason to go back there and see everyone.
Beatrice decides she spent enough time in his bedroom and grabs her drawing supplies to go to the living room. She tries to hop and limp her way over, which works quite well, before settling herself on the couch with a sigh after grabbing her gel ice pack from the kitchen. She couldn’t lie, her body was clearly missing it’s usual workout activities, especially her morning yoga - which it’s surprising Bradley never saw her do - and her dance classes. 
It’s strange to not do that for a whole week, nor get ready to work…which she really missed. She missed going to the Hard Deck and seeing everyone. She wondered if Rooster didn’t miss it either, after all he did go there even before he met her. She hoped…she wasn’t holding him back from having fun with his friends because of her sprained ankle, she didn’t want him to hold himself back from going out.
She’d ask him when he came back.
-
“Babe!” he calls as soon as he enters his apartment, already toeing out his boots  “I’m back and I brought take out!” He looks around the living room to see Jolene lying on his couch chewing her sock monkey but no Beatrice in sight.
He frowns, reaching down to greet Jolene with a pet then dropping the take out on his kitchen table before he goes check his bedroom, seeing that Beatrice is so focused on doing something in her drawing book she probably hadn’t heard him. Her back is to the door, so Rooster bites his lower lip with a smile, slowly walking behind her and crawling onto the bed, his head hovering above her shoulder to check what she was drawing.
It looked like a picture of a deer in the middle of the forest, she was still coloring it, but it already looks beautiful. “Hey.” he calls on her ear softly, making Beatrice yelp in surprise and fall back on his chest with her eyes wide when he wraps his arms around her waist. He couldn’t help but laugh at her startled self, kissing her cheek apologetically, “I’m sorry baby, you didn’t answer me when I got in so I got worried. I couldn’t help myself.”
Beatrice narrows her eyes playfully at him, but then she smiles, tilting her head to kiss his lips, “I forgive you.” she says sweetly, pecking him one last time, “Because you are cute.”
“I like that reason.” he coos, moving from behind her to sit right next to her on the edge of the bed, smiling when he noticed how her feet still hovered a few centimeters above the floor unlike his. “How’s your ankle?”
She hums, lifting the bandaged ankle a bit higher, “It’s doing better, I can limp a bit. So that’s always good.” she puts her drawing supplies aside so her lap is free of anything that could fall to the ground, her hands squeezed between her thighs, “How was your day?”
Rooster chuckles, leaning back on his hands as he sighs, “Fine, the usual.” he gives her a shrug “But I brought us take out.”
“Really?”
“From the Indian place you like so much,” he grins, enjoying her gleeful gasp “So I think we should get ready to eat because I am starving.” he pushes himself off the bed, fixing the black tee on his body before turning to Beatrice, “C’mere.”
“Don’t you think I should try and walk to the kitchen–” he picks her up before she could finish the sentence, hugging his neck and laughing as he carries her bridal style.
“No.” he chuckles, carrying her all the way to the kitchen and sitting her down on a chair, kissing the top of her head, “I would be a terrible boyfriend if I allowed that.” he says, opening his cabinets to grab plates as Beatrice pulled out the take out from the plastic bags, putting everything in the center before he sat down.
She ran her eyes over the black tee he wore with admiration, fighting back her little smile when he fixed the sleeve over his left bicep since it rolled up when he moved. She bit her lower lip with a smile before he could notice it, moving her gaze back to her plate as she opened the styrofoam containers for the two of them. “Ohh, Roos, these look so good.”
“I know, I stayed in line for a while to get it.” he says, cracking the soda cans open, “I wanted to surprise you.”
“Consider me pleasantly surprised.” 
“Well, I wanted to treat you.” he says, making her arch her eyebrow in question, “You know, just a dinner between the two of us.”
Beatrice leans on her palm with a little smile, “I don’t mind, I really like it.” she made another mental note to repay him in some way as soon as she got better. 
After Rooster turned on his playlist they finally started having dinner, chatting about nothing and everything at all, much like they always did. He said that when he posted the picture on Instagram he could hear Nat’s scream from his office and he was bombarded with texts from both her and Halo. Beatrice chuckles at his exasperated look when he said that Nat ‘hugged him so hard she probably popped his spine’ while rubbing his back to prove a point.
She had seen Halo and Nat’s comments on her picture and both sounded just as excited as Rooster said they’d be. She didn’t mind it, the other pilots’ comments were so sweet and supportive she couldn’t help but smile whenever she read them. She felt very welcome in this world she had no experience with.
Of course she worked at the Hard Deck and she knew some of the Navy personnel, but she wasn’t part of that whole universe before. She sometimes feared she was boring or lame compared to the others, one more reason why she feared getting closer to Rooster before…if she thought enough she could make a whole list as to why she felt so nervous about talking to him.
Was she glad he didn’t seem to mind? Yes, absolutely. Nevermind if sometimes she still got those feelings, but she never mentioned it to him. She’d rather not to, that’s something she got to work within herself, especially now that they were…well, official official. Something about sharing your relationship to the world really did something to her.
After dinner and after taking Jolene outside to go potty, Rooster said he was going to take a bath. Beatrice just smiled and nodded from the couch, watching him pull his black tee off, following the line of muscle ripple when he moved with interest.
He paused, then looked back over his shoulder, “I said I’m going to have a bath, babe.”
Beatrice smiled more, “I know babe, you just said that.”
“...okay let me rephrase that.” he balls the shirt in one hand, “We are going to have a bath together, right now.” 
“...Roos, what about the doctor's orders?”
“I’m not saying anything will happen.” he shrugs innocently, then groans, tossing his head back, “Bea, babe, my sweet angel, it’s just so we can spend time together, I haven’t touched you in…so long..” he says, 
 “Brad, you literally sleep behind me, touching my butt.”
“It’s not the same thing,plus soaking your ankle is helping it heal even faster.”
Considering his self restraint these past days, and it was a lot of self restraint, she considered his words with a tilt of her head. He also had a point on the soaking part, it was helping her ankle,”....well…okay.” She knew he was going to carry her to the bathroom so she didn’t even bother standing up, chuckling when he picked up bridal style and rushed to his bathroom.
Setting her on his counter as the bathtub filled, pouring some bath salts along the way as well, he turned back to check on her ankle “How’s it?” he asks while lifting and snapping the velcro open.
“Not bad, it hurts a little but it’s much less than before.” the swelling also went down a bit more, the redness of the bruise was now fading into her skin color instead. “I’ll be okay.” she smiles.
“Course you will,” he replies, cupping her chin to press a kiss to her lips, “You are strong as hell, you’ll get back in no time…now!” he shuts off the water when the bathtub is filled and there’s steam surrounding the two “It’s bathtime.”
She assures him she doesn’t need help undressing, but rolls her eyes when he does it anyway, telling her to lean on him if she needs to. He tells her to step in first because it’d definitely help her, not because he wanted to watch her ass as she turned around, “Roos,” she says softly, making him snap his gaze up as she holds his hand to get inside.
“Sorry, babe.” he isn’t sorry at all. “Give me some space, okay?”
Beatrice blinks, but pushes herself forward once she sits inside the bathtub, the warm water covering  up her shoulders, fluttering her eyes closed as she relaxes humming quietly to herself. She hears him move behind her, the quiet ‘ah that’s hot’ coming out of his mouth as the water splashes around them, his legs sliding on either side of her torso as he sits down behind her. “Okay, c’mere.”
She looks over her shoulder with her eyes squinted, the water reaches his chest and the middle of his biceps, the little smile on his face making her heart soar, “Where do I go, exactly?”
Rooster blinks, looking down at himself, “Well, here,” he says, pointing to his chest “You know, you lean back and relax?”  she squints her eyes even more, not believing him, “I can wash you.”
“Uh-huh and there are no ulterior motives, right?”
“Nope.”
“None?”
“Not a single one.” he says, but he drops his eyes down the expanse of her back for a second, “Promise.” Beatrice purses her lips with a smile but moves backward so her back presses against his chest, sighing softly. He grins, dropping his lips to the top of her head while his arms wrap around her shoulders, “Comfortable?”
“So far.” she says with her eyes closed, bringing her good knee up so it peeks from under the water. The warmth was working on her ankle, her eyebrows crinkled at a dull throb but it was much better than during the first times she did this, the inside of his thigh touching the outside of hers, “Are you?”
“I am very comfortable.” he says softly, brushing her hair to the side so he could press his lips on the slope of her shoulder, smiling against her skin, “See? Isn’t this nice?”
Beatrice smiles, opening her eyes to look back at him, “It is.” she whispers, “It’s very nice.” she was surprised at how he was controlling himself, just genuinely keeping her close so they’d relax. His playlist was still going, Private Eyes by Hall & Oates echoing through his apartment, Rooster humming along quietly behind her as he held her close, his legs coming up from under the water just like hers. 
She then purses her lips after a while, “Roos,” he pulls her closer to his chest, making a sound of interest, “...can I ask you something?” he mutters an ‘always’ against the skin of her neck, “Did you want to go to the Hard Deck?” Rooster stops his kissing to pull his head up, furrowing his eyebrows, “I mean…with the others?”
Bradley gives her a confused look with a smile on his lips, “What do you mean?”
“I mean…I’m not holding you from meeting them, right? Because I know you guys always meet at the Hard Deck after work.” she murmurs, “And, you guys are friends and if you want to go out and meet them that’s fine by me! Really! And I–”
He holds up a hand, dripping with water and shakes his head, “Okay, let’s pause for a second.” she lowers her eyebrows while looking up at him, “You aren’t preventing anything, Bea. I want to be here with you. They all understand why I’m not going…plus,” he smiles, cupping her chin to tilt her head up and kiss the tip of her nose, “It’s just not the same without you there.”
Beatrice’s cheeks turn red, but she’s still frowning, “I just don’t want to prevent you from meeting them all.”
“Bea,I see them almost every day.” he says with a shrug, “Plus if I ever dared to step on the bar without you I’m sure Penny would kick me out so I could stay here.” he smiles, tucking a strand of wet hair behind her ear, “I want to be here, babe. That’s why I suggested you stay.”
The brunette looks away diminutively, a smile slowly forming over her lips as she takes in his words. “I’m sorry, that was pretty dumb of me to think.”
“It wasn’t dumb,” he tells her quickly, “You aren’t dumb, you just worry.” Bradley leans back on the tub so she could lie even more against his chest, drawing random patterns on the wet skin of her upper back, “Okay?”
Beatrice flushes even more, pressing her cheek to his wet chest with her smile widening, “...okay.” she says, leaning up to kiss his lips, chuckling when he tries to deepen it, his hands sliding down towards her waist “Brad,” she lifts her sprained ankle for his eyes to see “Remember?”
He huffs, dropping his forehead on her shoulder only to sigh loudly, “Right, gotta heal up first.” she giggles, watching him grab one of the body washes she brought from home, glaring at the label in a way it made her laugh even more. “Let me distract myself before I just forget how to act.”

Promises we keep (Part 2 for TWOF)
Tumblr media
A few people asked me to write a part 2 for The weekend of firsts (and I also wanted to), so here's a short sequel. (Hopefully more is coming) 🤗 I'm sorry you had to wait for this so long, but I'm really busy in real life so I hope you will like it. 😊 I'm grateful for your comments and feedbacks. ❤
Summary: You and Checo are both feeling something for each other, and it became obvious after his first win where he was flirting with you and offered you to celebrate together. ;)
Pairing: Checo Perez x Reader
Warnings: none, maybe just broken english and lame jokes
You almost haven't slept a minute after that conversation with Checo, you were thinking about how bad you wanted to be with him last night.
You haven't checked your phone the whole night on purpose because you know you would see some posts from him from the party and you didn't want to feel more bad than you already did. You tried to sleep but failed at every attempt, so you were just staring at the ceiling, listened to music, watched some TV but none of these prevented you from thinking.
The sun was rising and you were sitting alone in your bed thinking about when did you fall for him this hard? Of course you felt that something is off and he meant to you much more than the other drivers but it just worsened after he was flirting with you in the last two interviews. So that's it? A few nice words and you are all over the place?
You were confused as hell.
You also promised him, that you will send him your number, and you talked about a possible celebration of his first win, but you became uncertain if that is a good idea at all.
You grabbed you phone and looked at it for a while. After a loud sigh you unlocked it, and saw a bunch of insta notifications.
What the hell?
You opened it and saw that there were messages from him.
11 PM: "Hey, I just want you to remind you for our little agreement. ;) Don't forget to send your number, I'll call you tomorrow. Sweet dreams and good night. :)"
Why is he so sweet.
Another message said:
1:15 AM: "You should be here with me. 🥺 Can't wait for tomorrow. 😊"
How I wish I would be there.
3:24 AM: "Are you awake? Can i takl to you?"
3:42 AM: "Sry I dont wnat to be too much, nevemrind. Cant wait to see ya."
Okay, so he was drunk as hell. Understandable.
He really deserved to loosen up a bit and have a great party with his team. Maybe it's for the better that you were not there, because it seems he already thought about you a lot more than you expected, and you didn't want to take his focus from the more important things.
You were looking at his texts and couldn't believe that he really felt that way, but you also wanted to be careful because he was obviously drunk so maybe this wasn't that serious.
You scrolled through your feed, seeing photos from last night, a lot of drivers were posting from different parties, and of course you saw a few pics about him, and if you wouldn't be dissapointed already for not being there, you were now because he looked so handsome and hot in his jeans and his white shirt unbuttoned on top...
Those photos made you feel in a certain way, maybe those encouraged you to finally text him at 5 AM.
"Hey! Saw that it was a pretty good party last night. Hope you had fun, but reading your texts I'm sure you did... 😁 I'm sorry for not being there, but I made a promise, so here's my number:
Get some rest and talk to you later :)"
...
After you sent him the text you fell asleep immediately for a few hours, which was good news given that you had only one day before you have to get back to work.
You woke up around 11 AM, and you immediately checked your phone but there was nothing special except some messages from your best friend.
He's probably sleeping, he had a rough night.
You tried to not to be impatient or anything like that but you were still confused about this whole thing between the two of you so you at least wanted to discuss this situation with him.
It was 3 PM already and you decided to pack your stuff for tomorrow's flight when your phone rang. Your heart skipped a beat and suddenly you realised that you were just standing there not doing anything. You quickly picked up your phone and answered the call from the unknown number.
"It's Y/N speaking."
"Hi Y/N, do I have to introduce myself also?"
Okay, it's him, his voice sounds tired but you loved it and he's already messing with you. Just chill.
"Well, maybe, you never know what kind of stranger has your number." You made a joke to calm yourself first and he chuckled, so it worked for him too.
"Yeah I wanted to tell that you should be careful who you give your number to. Maybe some hungover guy who sent you embarrasing texts last night will try to convince you to meet him."
Am I ready to meet him? I already feel like a teenager.
"That would be awful, can you help me to avoid that guy?"
"Let's see what we can do... I will ask you to come with me for a dinner before he finds you and asks you, so you can get rid of him. What do you think?"
He's a real player.
"Hmm, let me think about this for a minute."
"Be quick that guy is really determined."
I can't with him.
"Okay, you convinced me."
"Great, I'll pick you up at 7 PM, is that right for you?"
"Perfect. And thank you for saving me."
"It's my pleasure. You can thank me later in person."
Oh god.
"See you then. Bye."
"Bye Y/N."
As you hung up you immediately started to plan what to wear like you didn't want him to take it off of you as soon as possible...

Do you ever feel nervous about loving Arya and asoiaf so much? I do. I love Arya. I have, ever since i first read the books, and i love her chapters, and her character, and her arch, and everything about her. She is (one of) the main reasons i love the book series so much. I have been a fan for more than 11 years now. I cant tell you how many times i have reread her chapters. A lot of times, i promise. So i have faith in the character i know, a character that i know i know. But sometimes, i just get so nervous. I know a lot of it's because of what the show did to her, what certain parts of the fandom make of her, but i worry. That i got her wrong, that i got her character wrong, that i got who she is wrong. Sometimes what George Martin says about her, despite calling her his favorite character on multiple occasions, definitely contributes too. I can ignore what the show said or did, and i can ignore the nonsense from the ridiculous fandom as well, but when he says stuff like that, about her always going to kill someone, about her being a psychopath, kinda just guts me. Cause it so contradicts what i read in his books, what HE wrote in his books. I mean, he wrote them, he wrote HER and he didnt write her like that, like a psychopath. He wrote her like a traumatized girl in the middle of a war zone with nowhere to turn, a girl who loves her family and her brothers and her home and only wants to go back to whatever's left of it, who is caring and moral and just and someone who sees the injustice and cruelty and utter horror around her and wants to make some right of it. How does he write her like that, and then describe her in another way? Am i reading it wrong? Did i get it wrong? I dont think i did. But i am not arrogant enough to not question myself at times. Especially when he says stuff like this. What's your opinion/outlook/thoughts on this?
oh yeah, i can totally relate to that. not just regarding arya’s character but also, in particular, with arya/gendry. i didnt have the arrogance to never question my theories either. which all came to a head with the s8 finale. i sorta got validated on the latter, for a euphoric period of like 2 weeks, before it all came crashing down. that was definitely a turning point for me and my feelings re: asoiaf. i approach the series (and the fandom) in a very different way now. 
for me it was not easy to discount the show because, in all honesty, i don’t know that it’s ending was entirely different from the one grrm is planning. unfortunately. there was certainly d&d fanfic in there (ie: arya’s characterization in general, qitn s*nsa, jaime and cersei’s death, bran as king of the 6? kingdoms as opposed to the north) but i’m not certain about a lot of the other plot points; including arya’s endgame. i think the issue is going to be that the ending grrm’s intends to write, the same endgame he has had in mind since the very beginning, no longer works for the characters. the narrative has outgrown it! grrm has said himself numerous times “the tale grew with the telling” but for some reason he won’t let the ending evolve too? and that’s frustrating for me. i cannot begin to tell you how sick i am of storytellers who can’t properly outline. these days that applies to most of them. 
but the endgame only matters if grrm can finish the series. i don’t think he can. regardless, his opinion is fairly irrelevant to me at present. he was never going to view the series in the same exact way that a lot of us do anyway. he’s a 70 yr old man. most arya fans are young women. totally different perspectives. his comment about arya being a psycho is flippant, hyperbolic, and gross but do not let it make you think your interpretation of the text is "wrong". first of all: the people harping on about this are fulltime clowns with an agenda. they’re desperate for any ammo against arya, to justify wanting her to die in a ditch, so they wield this thoughtless diagnosis of a mental disorder against her like a weapon.
but arya *is* a caring, smart, brave, traumatized child with nowhere to turn who easily makes friends, and loves her family. she bandaged her worst enemy. she took mercy on those criminals. she has put herself at risk multiple times to help others. those things are true. she is also extremely desensitized to violence, as a child solider, and associates the ability to kill with safety/survival. arya is not a "good” victim. arya bites back. she is angry, fierce, and capable of inflicting harm. her wrath is directed towards worthy targets but arya is still a little girl with a monstrous side, literally and figuratively. she doesn't share her heart and mind with a fearsome direwolf for nothing.
so no, you’re not reading anything wrong. there is no such thing. this is something i have only developed a true appreciation for post s8. what you take away from the books is yours. do not let a man who can’t even do his job ruin that with a couple dumbass comments. besides, his ultimate goal for her arc is unknown. we've all got theories but it’s impossible to get an objective, full picture, without it. and like i said an asoiaf endgame? unlikely lol. this is going to be a chose your ending for everyone. i have completely embraced that mindset. arya stark is my number one, my forever girl. i will interpret her how i want and envision an ending (or several) for her that i want. i would encourage you to try and do the same. it’s a much more enjoyable mindset.

aita for not wanting to drive my coworker to the airport?
for background: we've been working together for over a year and she has always annoyed the piss out of me. like i used to dread going to work because she would irritate me constantly. now, im not going to go into detail about her life, but all you need to know is that she went through a bad divorce a few years ago that left her broke and far from her family. and in feburary of this year, she crashed her car and couldnt afford a new one, so i volunteered to take her to and from work. we got close after that (its like the opposite of "distance makes the heart grow fonder" the less time i spend with her, the more obnoxious i find her)
fast forward to today. she's been talking about going back to her hometown to see her boyfriend of like 2 weeks? maybe more? she also says its to see her family, but anytime she brings it up, her boyfriend is the first word out of her mouth, so.
she got someone to buy her plane tickets to her hometown. but the problem is the closest airport is two hours away. (technically theres one in town but its stupid expensive) she comes up to me at work and asks if i work that wednesday. i do. and she asks if i could drive her to the airport after work. i said i could, technically. and she ran off to do her job
for full context, we get off at 5pm. after traffic and everything, this would be a 6 hour round trip. i would not get home until 11 pm. it would literally be my entire day. and then i would have to do it again a few days later to pick her up. AND i have to work the next day. we're not related, and i haven't known her that long, so i really dont want to this
a little while ago, she texts me about the trip, and i tell her there are grayhound tickets for around 100$ (this is about what she would pay for gas) and she starts getting upset with me because i said i would take her ( i did, in her defense, but i should be allowed to change my mind, especially when ive had time to think about it outside of work. she sprung this on me in the middle of a shift, im not sure how accountable i should be held for a soft yes in a luch rush, but i digress)
this is where she starts trying to guilt trip me, saying that she has no one else who can take her, and that the tickets were already bought. i offered to buy her the grayhound tickets because i do feel bad and i do want her to see her family. but she just kept asking me if the bus would get her there in time (no it wont because she works until five and they dont run that late)
like, i feel bad, but with the way she's just acted, i really, really dont want to drive her for a total of 6 hours.
TL;DR: my coworker sprung a "drive me to the airport" question at me at work, i said yes, but after realizing its a very long drive, i changed my mind, i offered to pay for a bus ticket, but their times conflict with her plans. so aita?

My Days at school
My story, 2023: Part 1
So, this is going to be like my blogging page about my life, if anyone wants to give me some advice, you can do so but please don't judge me.
I'm going to start from the beginning of the year until now and I'll fill in some gapes, I'll just put dates like a diary so enjoy! (I won't use real names for privacy reasons).
To catch you up with the situation:
I had this crush and I adored him, his name is Luke, I made a friend, her name is Krystal and she helped me to get talking to Luke and get his phone number, he doesn't talk to people first so I had to get out of my anxiety stage and actually talk to the guy which he is 2 years older than me so this year (2023) he's not at school, hes out in the workplace... that was my second crush out of all the years I've been alive which I am now 16 turning 17 this September. The first crush I spent 3 and a half years (year 7-a little ways through year 10) liking him, his nams is Kyden, so I got over liking him through using luke as a distraction because their was no other way for me to get over him because I get attached to people, just noting I never ever spoke to kyden once in my whole life and haven't till this day, so that's that and I'll continue on from here with New years day and this year (2023) I'm in year 11!
1st of January, Sunday, 2023
So.... Today is just like any other day except it's the new years, hopefully this year I'll get closer to Luke, I have been overthinking a lot of things like if he likes me just is very shy which my nan's friend, Margaret, said the same thing so, maybe that's just it he might like me but just is so shy or just is afraid of regection but im pretty sure he knows i like him so I dont think thats the case... I'm just not sure... he work at woolworths so he can't be too shy to talk to people. On Wednesday I'm going to text him and see if he's going to be busy if not Ill invite him to the pool, if he's busy on Wednesday, I'll ask if he's free on Thursday. Hopefully he says yes, but I don't know. If he does say yes I'm going to be so happy, one of the happiest I've ever been, the day is going to be so fun if he don't want to go to the pool because he might see people he knows I'll suggest the beach which it would be rare to see people you know unless you know there going there, either way I'm pretty sure it's going to be fun and I'll be able to be myself around him by the end of the day!
Thank you so much for reading! I'll continue the parts if you want to enjoy them! 😁

k time for our regularly scheduled sleepy oversharing time (answering all the questions from this ask game)
(1) Do you have freckles? nope ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
(2) Do you drink tea or coffee? How do you take it? sometimes i drink tea if im sick or chai socially but thats basically it. chocolate is the closest thing i have to a regular stimulant
(3) What was the last song you listened to? this lagtrain edit idk i really like just. semi-chaotic noise that sounds out of place and a bit incongruent. probably why i like pokeloid
(4) Do you sleep on your back, stomach or side? diagonalish but mostly on my side. i alternate sides though in fact i used to sleep on my stomach until i read a newspaper article that said a plurality of ppl sleep on their side and then i got scared and completely changed the way i sleep in like 6th grade in case you somehow needed more evidence im autistic
(5) Do you sleep with a stuffed animal? blåhaj!! !!! !!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love her need to clean her though also i stream with my hello kitty velvet and i think that's kinda relevant
(6) Do you prefer drawing or writing? i like both but i am so so so much less bad at writing so that's more fulfilling i need to do both a lot more though ive been procrastinating a lot of tales of luminaria writing and art that i feel a compulsive need to make since the game was shuttered
(7) What’s your ideal number of blankets to sleep with? currently i sleep with blanket/comforter/blanket but i am still so so cold so i either need another blanket or one of them to be heated
(8) What’s your favorite band/artist? i mean there are a bunch that are all kinda at the same tier but i think inabakumori is at the top their vocaloids are just so. emotions
(9) When is your birthday? not gonna answer this but if you wanna check my bio every day for the next year until you see it flip to 23 i guess thats a thing you can do
(10) How tall are you? 178 cm (5'10") aka too tall please someone let me give you my height i dont fucking want it except in rock climbing it's useful for that but other than that the dysphoria is just not worth it hate hate hate
(11) What color are your eyes? brown, a bit darker than my skin but ive been complimented on my eyes by strangers more than like any part of my appearance combined so i am always confused like. theyre just my eyes! theyre pretty but only in the way that ppl eyes generally are idgi
(12) Who are five (or more) people you want to hug right now? i dont really want to hug anyone tbh like id be happy to hug a friend if they needed it but im just not feeling touch atm
(13) Fears? that samsara isnt real enough for me to defer all the experiences i dont want to miss out on to a different life also climate change also being at parties where im not super close with most of the people
(14) What’s your favorite color? the sky! i know everyone is probably tired of me saying it but i dont like the idea of picking one 'color' since that allows for so much variation, so i instead choose something that is constantly varying and always beautiful at every instant ive ever gazed upon it
(15) What’s your favorite season? summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer summer please it's so cold i want to be able to feel warm when i go outside and not feel like im killing the planet when i consider turning the thermostat up a degree
(16) Want any tattoos? What of? oh i absolutely want tattoos definitely one for outer wilds (the hourglass twins), and id be open to the berseria title card with velvet's hair flowing into the letters i just think that game is neat
(17) Want any piercings? Where? im happy with my recent earlobe piercings but it would be desi as fuck to get a nose ring so that also sounds pretty cool
(18) Who is the last person you texted? my parents telling them im coming home from work
(19) Do you have a best friend? How long have you been friends? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ closest thing is probably my college roommate for 3 years but he went to grad school in a different state so ive barely seen him since
(20) What/who do you miss? oh well that's a question and a half i miss my ability to just get a crush and imagine cute and unrealistic fantasy stories where i went out with them now a combination of adult™ realism and the couple years i spent beating myself up for ever feeling romantic attraction have made doing both of those things so much harder so i just stick to projecting myself in established plots i mean its better than it was near the end of high school but. not as good as middle school when i actively loved going to bed just so i could imagine whatever i wanted in the hourish before i fell asleep
(21) How was your day today? tired. slept too early last night and thus the day had no sense of urgency and my head felt very bleh the entire time
(22) How much sleep did you get last night? 8 hours which is kinda the problem i function best with having had 9-10 hours two nights ago and 4-6 hours the night of and whenever i try to get a regular person sleep schedule™ it just makes me feel bad
(23) Do you believe in aliens? not like conspiracy theories or anything like that but. the universe is so BIG and we're finding so many planets that it feels impossible for there to not be life elsewhere also $20 europa has whales in it
(24) When was the last time you cried? Why? idk crying is hard and has barely ever happened since i felt bad about crying at a book in 6th grade and hammered it out of my brain. clearly my masking behaviors have never once been self destructive and i am an extraordinarily well adjusted girlie more recently my parents probably said something that made me feel bad and i semi-succeeded at crying in the shower and forgot about it the day after
(25) What’s your favorite decade? is it really possible for me to answer anything but the present? theres only been one decade where ive been a girl for part of it theres only been one decade where i fell in love with the sound of my voice theres only been one decade where i lived for myself and not for who i expected myself to be
(26) What are some seemingly childish things you like? i mean. i watch cartoons and eat sweets and enjoy going outside and getting distracted by everything i see there not sure what it means for something to be 'childish' tbh
(27) What’s your favorite book? Or just one you’ve read a few times? favorite book is the raven tower by ann leckie it's just. such a wonderful story in such a beautiful world that i feel like i was made for book ive read the most is probably son of neptune though, i know i spent a few months just kinda picking it up at a random page and rereading a few chapters every couple of days
(28) How are you, really? not answering this it's cliche and boring
(29) Does it take you a long time to make decisions? yes and no if a decision is right in front of me i'll make it fairly quickly if a decision is far away then i will procrastinate it to the point of absurdity ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
(30) What are you looking forward to in the near future? getting on injections! estrogen time :d
(31) What are you looking forward to in the distant future? 2024 eclipse!!!! !!!! !!!!!! !!!!!!!!! i know with how much im hyping it in my head it'll definitely be covered with clouds at the place i go to but i! do! not! care! the 2017 eclipse is the most beautiful thing i have ever seen in the entire world and i need to see it again
(32) If you could go anywhere right now, where would you go? i want to see the aurorae other than things like that im pretty comfortable sitting in my room, but the idea of viewing something so magical is just incredibly appealing
(33) Do you sleep with your door open or closed? closed otherwise my parents would see how messy my room is and the airflow would be wrong and its brighter in the hallway and just. no
(34) What’s your favorite flower? is it too cliche to say cherry blossom? i grew up near washington dc like going to see the cherry blossom festival is a part of my core identity
(35) Do you currently have a squish? not really but also my brain has a taboo against verbalizing any kind of attractive feelings so it's difficult to overcome that enough to process my thoughts without hating myself so i dont try
(36) Do you like your middle name? no it's just my dad's name, which already feels old-fashioned in indian terms let alone the fact that it sounds vaguely like a mildly off-putting (to me) phrase in english
(37) Do you prefer dogs or cats? i love seeing them both outside or in friends' homes and i am unlikely to ever adopt one so that's the extent of it
(38) Do you have any phobias? i dont think so
(39) Do you stay up late? not late enough
(40) Do you like the beach? Do you prefer it sunny or cloudy? a not-sunny beach is definitely cold so. yeah. the last beach ive been to was in gdynia though so i might be unfairly projecting how cold the baltic sea is onto other beaches that are reasonable temperatures
(41) What’s your favorite cartoon? if we're counting anime: bna if we're not: amphibia actually now that i think about it i need to rewatch kipo and the age of wonderbeasts that was good
(42) Tag 5 of your favorite blogs no
(43) Do you have siblings? How many? one older sister
(44) Who was the last person you said “I love you” to? probably my parents
(45) Is there anyone you would die for? oh absolutely. loads. the more interesting question would be 'is there anyone you would kill for' and that is far far more difficult to answer
(46) What do you need when you’re sad? patience
(47) Have you memorized your phone number? ofc i have it has interesting math properties associated with it that i sadly cant say here bc saying all the properties, even in a relatively cryptic form, would narrow it down to like 10 options if someone knew my area code
(48) Who’s someone you can trust with your life? this question is ridiculous when cars exist. i have to trust pretty much every driver near me with my life whether im in a car or walking near a road so i dont view it as a particularly meaningful level of trust nor do i view my life as something particularly worth guarding so like. whatever, yknow? (note: this isnt a mental health thing it's a samsara thing dw) if this body dies it dies and i wouldnt want anyone i care about to feel responsible no matter what
(49) What does your last text say? already said it
(50) Wild Card. Any question, ask away. my favorite font is alegreya sc

im just going thru posts on which ive left tags to make original posts and so on (and perhaps one day migrate these posts to my neocities...)
but yeah re: afab/amab terms being used to create and reinforce the existing gender binary in language that imitates progress...
truly do not think we should use acronyms anymore, as catgirltoes said
but also i think these terms are bad precisely because, superficially, it seems they apply to more than one kind of discussion.
like for example healthcare is an offender because you try telling a guy who had a vaginectomy to get a pap smear because he's afab. using body parts is an obvious alternative
for social stuff, just because you're assigned something at birth doesn't mean you're raised as such, e.g. trans kids whose parents and doctors realize it young enough. and of course the assignment/raising thing is a fraught thing w/ intersex people too but im not intersex so im not gonna go into detail about it. just use raised as a (girl/boy) for (length of time) and for the love of transgender jesus do not make it an acronym
and the biggest thing on tumblr ive seen is for nsfw works, like "x afab reader" is such a huge thing on here that i blocked "afab" just to get the "x reader" shit out. this shit pisses me off because so often they dont even try to pretend its not meant for anyone who isnt a cis woman
and of course the afab-only and amab-only (rarer, but the post im responding to says it happens) event shit is just so.

First impressions of Tumblr's new login updates to the web
Opens on the "Explore" page, I guess it's nice because you can see what's on Tumblr before signing up
The new "Email first, password on next screen" layout does not work with Firefox's password manager
I use FF Relay for my email, so I need the email to auto-fill, but it does not
Suggestions
Separate the log-in from the sign-up. Right now they are already two different buttons that lead to the same action.
Put the email and password fields on the same page, and make sure they work with password managers.

i discovered the church of englands ‘daily hope line’ last night. its basically a freephone number with some prerecorded sermons and hymns that update daily. its lovely. im normally scared to go in churches because i am a wretched sinner but i truly did feel Gods love as i listened to the sermon about christ calling the fishermen. theres also some strange sleep asmr and ‘chair exercises’ on the number, elderly target audience i imagine. i need to find more numbers like this
i really, really, really do hate telephones. i do. i know we all do nowadays because we are a soy generation but i really do have an aversion to them. the mystic telling bone. its wicked. it has voices in it.
basically my networks telling me i need to make more calls because i make approximately 0 calls, and so im paying to make jus like 20 texts a month; so i was looking up random phone numbers to call. problem is, no call centres are open at midnight (my most active hours) theres phone numbers on everything, packages, books; everywhere. but none of them work except in the daytime (and i fear the daylight) i managed to get in touch with some kind of emergency vehicle service northumberland by deftly pressing random buttons. all i could choke out were the words ‘im sorry’ before hanging up. theres always suicide helplines. i do feel suicidal often, but not as much as before. i feel like id be wasting their time. an old man once told me, he volunteered for the samaritans hotline for a while, he said that women would ring up crying and saying they were going to kill themselves but as you talked to them youd realise that they were getting off on it and theyd tell you about how they were masturbating and there were repeat offenders who they had to keep blocking the numbers of. might start doing that. maybe. i dont want to waste peoples time for no reason. im just lonely! i dunno man, should i get into prank calling? not in a nasty way. jus for fun. idk, ive never liked prank calls. i just want someone to talk to i wish there was like a telephone omegle (like, when omegle was good) that jus hooks you up to a random other person and you have to chat
i need to find out how phone numbers work
as i understand it, there are usually 11 digits in a phone number. the first 2, or 4, or 5 have special meaning. that is as much as i can surmise naively. more research needed.

Hi, me again. I have a long string of numbers from the ask the author. I thought that I’d go through and type out a couple that I’d like to know about and that ended up being most of them, don’t feel pressured to answer all of them. The numbers are 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,17,19,20,21,22,23,24 and 25. Sorry for asking so many.
Also make sure not to stress out over the long ask. I don’t know about the other Watchers but I’m happy to wait until you’ve finished it, even if it takes a while, I know it will be worth the wait if your other asks are anything to go by. I don’t know if you are worried about not getting it done quickly or not, but if you are I figured this might help.

Aw thanks. That does help. Tho honestly im more frustrated i havent gotten any day off to just rest and have time to write bc i really want to write!! Especially since i’m averaging a 5/10 on the pain scale every single second im awake rn. I deserve my rest dfhkjgfh
1) is there a story you’re holding off on writing for some reason?
I am only capable of writing 1 story at a time so I’m basically holding off on uh everything until this blog is done. I am very excited to get to write more for my other AUs. Like my “New eden” au which is like the sides happening to meet at a specialized inpatient and there’s loceit and rem(2) and angst and stuff. And I got 2 others i’m excited for bc they’ve got lots of worldbuilding and i havent done much of that in my writing but when i made those AUs i realized i really dig worldbuilding. I am planning on letting y’all vote on which of my AUs should get an askblog when this story is done btw
2) what work of yours, if any, are you the most embarrassed about existing?
Jfkfk the one stucky fic i wrote at like 12. In 1 chapter i put in a self insert and had cap validate my non binaryness. Apparently i thought it was so embarasing i have deleted several chapters from it but i dont remember actually doing that
3) what order do you write in? front of book to back? chronological? favorite scenes first? something else?
Front to back babeyyyy always. Sometimes i scribble down a future scene so i dont forget it but otherwise its all first scene to last
4) favorite character you’ve written
I really did enjoy writing Roman as Jaws in my James Bond au just bc it was such a stupid concept. I also have a soft spot for my son Envy. Before Remus existed Envy was my green side. He was also a gremlin. I love writing dogs <333 Thomas as a dog <3 Roman as a dog <3 Virgil as a big fluffy service dog <333 
7) when asked, are you embarrassed or enthusiastic to tell people that you write?
I usually tell people i write. Usually not that i write fanfic
8) favorite genre to write
I guess drama? Slice of life? Romance? Whatever you call this. I have written action and thriller stuff as well but i prefer this. I just love angst 💗💓💚🧡💛 even whump 😈 and some good comfort
9) what, if anything, do you do for inspiration?
I ramble with my beloved best friend 💚 our brainstorm sessions get so ridicolously long. For some aus like the New Eden one the plot would look Completely different if it wasnt for him. I probs wouldnt have expanded it so much
10) write in silence or with background noise? with people or alone?
I always have to have music on or i cant concrentate. Cant even sit in the same room as other people while writing if theyre chatting loudly
11) what aspect of your writing do you think has most improved since you started writing?
Bro i used to over explain everrryyythhing. I know i still ramble a lot and put in way too many details in my writing but somehow i used to be even worse!! I also was one of those who wrote like "The boy with the round glasses said" instead of just saying their goddamn names
12) your weaknesses as an author
Uhm everything? Jk. But i really do think that writing in of itself isn’t my strong suit. I always feel like i use the same words too much. The same metaphors. Same flowery texts. My grammar isn’t good either. 
13) your strengths as an author
If i would have any strenght it would maybe be uhhhh concepts? I’m shit at writing but i do like to think i can come up with some interesting concepts for stories? i like how many times I’ve made the sides into a literal dog in my AUs. thats fun i guess. maybe my strenght could be uhh funny?? people say im funny sometimes?? i dunno in my opinion i think im pretty average. nos trenghts
19) when it comes to more complicated narratives, how do you keep track of outlines, characters, development, timeline, ect.?
....I.......I just remember it.......in my head...I know, i’m horrible. I have tried to write up timelines but it never works for me. Sometimes I use the brainstorms with my bestie on discord as a type of timeline but most of the time I do just keep everything in my brain. Which is stupid bc my memory sucks
20) do you write in long sit-down sessions or in little spurts?
I really wanna say i prefer longer sit downs but the thing is my attention span is shit so it usually becomes me “writing” for like 3 hours but half the time was spent watching youtube
21) what do you think when you read over your older work?
Tumblr media
22) are there any subjects that make you uncomfortable to write?
Not that I can think of. When i’m writing im in control of what happens obviously so things that make me dissociate or super uncomfy if i saw it in my day to day life dont have any negative effect on me bc im the one writing. Tho one thing i stray from writin nowadays is eating disorders
24) have you ever become an expert on something you previously knew nothing about, in order to better a scene or a story?
Girl ive looked up the most random shit. Different types of mazes, hotels in kentucky, etc. But really i wouldnt say im an expert on these things but i appreciate how much fics have made me learn about different disabilities. i do have chronic pain and some other shit which has made me put in disabled sides in my fics but its not like i have fibro or im deaf or have a brain injury so i have to read up on this stuff and it’s genuinly fascinating to learn. My fics have also let me learn a lot more about different cultures, in this AUs case i’ve learnt a lot about judaism to write the twins C: i would love to write romani sides in the future bc my family is partially romani but until i do that i like putting in that jewish rep. the fandom needs it hfkjhf
i hope me just talking about myself wasnt too annoying sorry
