Against All Odds (Jessie Fleming x Reader)
Tumblr media
warnings: none
prompt: in which reader is a super buff boxer but gets all soft around Jessie, making Jessie’s teammates tease her.
a/n: for @woso-scotland
Growing up with 5 older brothers meant one thing. Chaos. The only time you all got along was when you were watching boxing on the TV. However, when you were 11, the middle child, Jacob, died. You had never heard the house so quiet, it haunted you to this day. He had only been 15.
But, 11 year old you wanted to make your family feel better, she wanted to give her family back the five boxers for children they had before the accident.
That’s why when you told your father you wanted to take up boxing, he didn’t say no. Your dad was your biggest fan. He came to every game, gave you tips until you were too good for them, and supported you through everything including your coming out. You were the only person in the family that had continued boxing, your brothers turning into architects, police officers and family men while you stayed nose deep in the world of boxing.
By the time you were 20, you were incredibly well known in the boxing world, and at the same time, a certain 20 year old was growing a name for herself too. Only in the football industry. However you would only meet Jessie Fleming years later at a gym…
You were ripped, to say the least. But not the kind of ripped that would go noticed to everyone. You wore hoodies and sweatpants and it made your build discreet, but the second you were in a sports bra and shorts it was undeniable you could take anybody in a fight.
Jessie met you at the supermarket in London. It was the middle of COVID and your boxing season has been cut short. You were wearing light blue Columbia sweatpants and a matching crewneck with a black mask. Your sneakers were white, but just barely as you only left your house for essentials.
You had always lived in LA which made the sudden move to London, England shocked to your family. But you knew you needed to get away from the world during this virus thing.
You turned the corner, holding a basket in your hand which was filled with vegetables, milk, fruit and some protein bars. As you did, you felt a cart come crashing into your legs and sending you flying backwards, landing on the ground.
"Oh my god! I’m so sorry," the young woman squealed, quickly leaving her spot behind the cart and rushing to your side. "It’s okay, i’m fine," you laughed, rubbing you knees and standing up. "I’m- Im so sorry I was just lost in my own mind and I didn’t see you," she apologized again. "What are you, Canadian? Enough apologies. I’m okay," you teased. "How did you know?" she asked, helping you place your own groceries back into your basket. "Know what?" you questioned, only realizing now how beautiful the girl in front of you was, or at least what you could see of her was. "That i’m canadian?" she said.
"Oh. I didnt. I was just kidding, but that makes sense now, and the accent," you laughed. "Okay American," she clapped back, rolling her eyes teasingly. "I feel like i’ve seen you somewhere," you said to her, narrowing your eyes. "Uh- no. Probably not. I’m your average girl," she said.
"So am I," you said.
The next week, you saw her again. This time, you had just come from the gym so you had on shorts and a tank top, showing off your features. Jessie was there too. "Hey!" she said to you as you met her in. the dairy alley. "Hi. How are you?" you asked her. "I’m good. And you’re jacked," she said, not so discreetly passing her eyes over your body. Usually, someone staring at you like that would make you self conscious, but the way Jessie did it made you feel good.
"Uh, yeah," you laughed. "Oh my god. When I left here last week I thought i recognized you too. That’s because you… box, right? On TV! A few of my teammates have a crush on you. They hate boxing but they love watching you," she laughed. "Oh really now? Well I don’t really care what they think but I care what you do. Because I recognize you too. Jessie Fleming, olympic athlete, two times world cup attender, and Chelsea player," you said, listing her honours.
"Stalker," she accused. "Yeah," you smiled. "Okay well how about I get to know you through another mechanism than google," you suggested. "You mean a date?" she asked, clearly blushing. "I do,"
But then the whole world went into lockdown again and your dates were more like king calls till midnight and face time dates.
Everything worked out though, because on this day of April 14th 2023, you were dating and more in love than ever.
Jessie’s Canadian teammates found out first. You had travelled to Ottawa with her for the celebration tour of winning the Olympics. Jessie had a video of you screaming your guts out by yourself in your apparement when they won the games. You were yelling, crying, and got a noise complaint the next day. But you didn’t care. All you wanted to do with your life was support your girlfriend, and that’s all she wanted to do with hers.
So, that’s how you found yourself front row in tiny little place TD stadium, sitting on a chair that was a little tight on your quads. Jessie scored a penalty, mimicking the one she did at the Olympics and you yelled for that too. You were probably the only American that loved the Canadian team more than anything.
After the game, the team walked around clapping to the fans and when Jessie got to you she stopped and hugged you over the barrier. "Come down, the security here is light," she said to you. So you climbed over the railing and hopped onto the turf. "Janine!" Jessie called, ushering over a blonde who had been talking to a man who looked like her brother. Janine jogged over and looked at you with wide eyes. You were pretty menacing to people who didn’t know you. "This is… y/n, my girlfriend," Jessie said. "You’re- your what?!! How long have you been together?" Janine asked. "Um, well we’ve been taking it slow a year but we made it official like six months ago," Jessie said. "Six. Months?!" Janine whisper yelled. "Hi, I’m y/n," you said, sticking your hand out.
Janine had clearly forgotten you were there as her her snapped towards you in confusion. "Oh, sorry. Hi, I’m Janine Beckie," she said. "Y/n Y/l/n," you smiled, shaking it. "Like the boxer?" she asked. "Uh, yeah," you laughed.
The introductions were then made in the Canada locker room which was even scarier as what felt like hundreds of pairs of eyes were on you.
"Okay. So I don’t do this… it’s not my thing but I thought after keeping our… relationship… secret for months you guys deserved to know. This is my girlfriend, y/n. And yeah she’s the boxer," Jessie said.
You blushed furiously and smiled at the girls who started asking questions all at once. "How did you meet?"
"She hit me." you said. "Okay woah! You need to add context there," Jessie laughed. "She hit me with her shopping cart," you added.
"Okay and what are your intentions. Because this is Baby Canada right here and she can’t play with a broke heart," Chappy said, summoning her motherly side. "My intentions are to never let her go a day without feeling loved and supported. My intentions are to… watch her play with a smile on my face and make sure she knows that she is the most wonderful person I have ever met. My intentions are to go broke because I buy all of her jerseys," you said, ranting a little bit.
"Okay softie," Stephanie said, winking over at Jessie and giving her a thumbs up. "Sorry to do this y/n but the post game talk is just for players. Gotta kick you out," Bev said, heading towards the door. "Oh right. Okay well it was nice meeting you all," you said. You turned to Jessie and gave her a quick kiss on the lips which she responded by placing her hand against your abs and kissing back before you left the room.
The second you closed the door chatter erupted in the room. "Okay Fleming I see your type now," Vanessa teased.
Teasing and more teasing echoed in the room, Even Bev chipped in.
But eventually calm settled over TD place and Bev started the post game talk.
The Chelsea girls found out about Jessie’s relationship at the start of the season… by accident.
You had called her after practice to let her know that your car had broken down on the side of this little street in the middle of suburb London and you were lost. She answered your call in the changing room.
"Hey Jess, can you come get me? My car broke down and the car repair people came and got it but they couldn’t give me a ride. I’m literally standing in this random street that looks like it’s in the middle of a forest," you groaned down the phone. "What? Are you okay?" she asked. "Yeah. Im fine, just… it’s gonna rain soon Jess. I was coming home from visiting a friend and-"
"Babe, I’ll be there as soon as possible. Send me your location," Jessie said and then hung up.
"Babe?" Magda asked, the whole room silent. "Yeah. I have a girlfriend by the way and her car broke down so I gotta go get her," Jessie said, quickly putting on a matching adidas hoodie and shorts and stuffing her belongings into her gym bag. "Jessie! You’re giving four people a ride home. It’s your carpool day. Which means…" Niahm started saying.
"You are not coming with me." Jessie said sternly.
"Road trip!" Niahm, Lauren, Sam, Zecira and Emily said at once. "Wait. We want to come too, meet the girl," Pernille said, pointing between her and Magda.
"Please no," Jessie groaned. "Wait, who doesn’t want to come," she asked.
No one raised their hand.
"Everyone get in a car and follow mine," the Canadian exhaled.
Turns out you were thirty full minutes away, but that didn’t discourage anyone within the four cars trailing behind Jessie’s honda.
There was music blasting in every vehicle and when rain started pouring, Jessie knew you would be in a bad mood.
"Someone grab my phone and text y/n telling her i’m almost there," Jessie said, fumbling with her device and tossing it to Emily in the backseat.
Jessie saw you the second she turned the curve in the road. You had your hood up, your arms crossed and you looked ready to kill. She knew that you were just pissed off and would never hurt a soul, but to the other girls, you seemed positively menacing.
Jessie jumped out of her car and ran towards you, hugging you tightly. "I’m so sorry, everyone wanted to come and-"
That’s when you saw the four other cars behind your girlfriends, but you didn’t care, you just kept hugging her and let the tears of frustration mix with the raindrops on your face. "It’s okay baby, they were bound to meet me one day," you said, brushing her now wet curls out of her face.
You had excepted everyone to stay in their cars due to the insane amount of rain, but before you knew it, the entire Chelsea Women’s roster was in front of you in the street. Magda and Pernille hugged you gently, giving each other a wide eyed look as they both felt your muscle mass. "Holy shit. You’re the boxer. I watch you on TV like all the time," Guro said, eyes wide.
"Well so do I- I watch you, I mean. Not myself. I watch all of you guys," you laughed.
"Your Guro’s celebrity crush is what she’s saying," Jessie teased. "Well not anymore!" The Norwegian laughed.
You spent dozens of minute talking in the rain, the cold downpour not seeming so bad when you had Jessie’s hand in yours.
Eventually, you got into the front seat and banished Sam to Magda and Pernilles car to make room for you.
You talked to the girls in the car and answered questions that the Canadian team had already asked. But you didn’t mind because those questions just meant you were lucky enough to have Jessie Fleming sitting beside you.
"She gets super focused when she drives," Emily said. "I know, I think it’s because she’s a bad driver," you teased. "I’m not! It’s just the whole reverse thing is confusing. The cars go the opposite way then they do in Canada," she said, keeping her eyes fixed on the road.
You kept on looking at her, your eyes full of love. Jessie knew you were staring, but she just let the blush creep onto her cheeks and gave you a quick smile, returning the lovey dovey eyes.
Zecira snapped a picture from the backseat. The forest was clear through the windshield, and so were the droplets of rain. You could see Jessie’s blushing grin but not who it was directed too. She posted it to her story and closed her phone, enjoying the sound of the rain… and the one of Emily and Niahms arguing.

I have a Bakugou x fem! reader request if you’re willing!
so reader is really smart but disguises it at school because she’s afraid people (especially boys) will think she’s stuck-up and unattractive. But Bakugou sees through her act and likes how smart she is and asks her out in his own Bakugou way.
Preferably fluff but suggestive bc Bakugou is turned on by smart women ;)
thanks!
Smartass | K•Bakugo
Tumblr media
Includes : Fluff
Warnings : none
A/n: Apologies for only getting to the requests months later :), I've got quite slot on my schedule.
Tumblr media
Exhaustion wouldn't even be able to explain how you felt after an all nighter, studying your ass off for a biology test after all you've done the past week is hang out with your friends who could care less about good grades.
Being in this highschool meant that you would be classified as a nerd if anyone knew about the lengths you go through for a perfect score, so naturally you did everything you could to avoid that.
You never bragged or showed anyone your scores, you never raised your hand in class even if your mind was tearing you apart for knowing the answer, and because of this no one had gotten suspicious of your actions because you were sure to attract as little attention towards yourself as possible.
Though, at least that's what you thought.
You were convinced that you fooled everyone but, unbeknownst to you, there was always someone watching you from the corner of your eye.
Bakugo Katsuki, the only person in your class who found your behavior suspicious.
Occasionally he would pass by while you're talking to your friends in the hall and overhear you claim that you didnt study for the test. Though it would be a different story when he got a glance of your perfect score from where he sat behind you.
Today was no different, because as soon as you got your paper you flipped it upside down before a look of dissapproval crossed your features. It made his blood boil. Why would someone as smart as you not want to show off their skills to the world?
"We're going to have a class project" The teacher spoke out, "As you all know we're going to the aquarium next week-."
Various complains could be heard by some of the students and you tried to refrain from showing your excitement.
The idea of biology made you feel giddy inside. You were just imagining how calming it would be like to be in the presence of so much aquatic life, in the dimmly lit hues of the water cascading all around the building.
"As I was saying.." She cleared her throat and everyone went silent. "I'm going to be putting you in pairs"
Your heart dropped.
She had to be joking right?. The people in your class had to be the laziest people you had ever met in your life, and there was no way you were going to be stuck with them for a whole day.
Every group project you've been in, there would always be only one person who did the the work, while the others would slack off, and that person was you.
Nobody ever handed their assignments in on time or even took it the slightest bit of interest. You played along with their act, fearing that they'd judge you for being a goody two shoes if you spoke up. In your own time you'd sit by yourself to finish the project and of course they'd take all the credit. They always take the credit.
A pair of hands slammed down on your desk and you flinched.
"You dreaming in class?" He scoffed, staring you down with his crimson eyes, His face held a neutral expression, and could feel from his aura that he was trying to read you.
"Katsuki Bakugo" you said in acknowledgement, averting your eyes from his to break the somewhat intense staredown.
"Y/n L/n" he tilted his head, not once looking away from your face. "Pair up with me"
You looked at him with shock, was this the same Bakugo who always wanted to work by himself because 'everyone else is weak', now standing at your table demanding you to work with him?
You never really spoke to him in class, but often you'd find yourself staring at him whenever you had hero training. He was always so focused and well calculated. On the battle field he's better than you in every aspect.
He was smart, possibly even smarter you, so why did he need you on his team when he'd just fine by himself?
"Um, why me?" You you're voice wavered.
"You're one of the only idiots in this class who actually put in the effort"
Your eyes widened and you stared at him to search for any sign that he was joking, but he wasn't. Could this mean that he was one of the people that actually acknowleded your hard efforts?
"What you're what you're talking abo-"
He cut you off before rolling his eyes. "You can't pull that clueless act shit on me and you know that."
You avertes your gaze and he continued. "You get a perfect score on almost every test, yet you don't tell anyone that cause you don't wan em to know you're a smartass."
He would rather much have to work with you than the other people in the class, considering you always take the number two spot regarding academics. He's always right ahead of you, scowling in first place, but hell- even he had to admit that there was nothing hotter than a smart woman. If anything he wanted to see this smartness up close, test the limits, and see just how much of your intelligence you were hiding from everyone else.
Don't get him wrong, he loved getting first place, though it wasn't really worth it if his opponents weren't going to give him a challenge. He wanted to fight for his place, give blood his blood sweat and tears for it.
And what better way to do that then get his academic rival pumped up?
You sighed in defeat and he reached into his pocket to pull out his phone. "We'll have to do research, you free after school?"
He looked away slightly bashful as your fingers brushed against his to type in your number.
"Yeah I am, did you have any place in mind?"
"The cafe two blocks down, afterschool" he said abruptly and turned to leave but stopped when you spoke.
"I don't know where that is" you said softly.
"I'll walk you there after school" he replied, a tiny hint of nervousness coming from his voice.
He needed to end this conversation or else he was gonna end up looking like a tomato from all of this blushing. He practiced this conversation a million times in his head and even that wasn't enough to prepare him. Hearing your voice address him did things to him that nobody would ever understand. The look of your sweet gaze directed to him was more than he could ever ask for.
This class project was a great excuse for him to get to know you better, but you didn't need to know that.
It would've been embarrassing if you noticed him acting all weird, but luckily you were too trappped in your own little world to notice.
•••
A/n. (again) : Focused on getting requests out :)
See you all on Friday.

summary: your best friend neteyam is a bit of a sleep cuddlier

warnings/notes: none! pure tooth rotting fluff
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
After another long ass day filled with nothing but training Neteyam was exhausted. In fact, exhausted was an understatement.
The only thing he wanted to do was to snuggle up and go to sleep. What he really wanted was to snuggle up with you.
His best friend was the only person who could immediately put him at ease. Nothing could top the tranquil feeling of holding you in his arms.
Neteyam trudged through home tree, his mind on autopilot. He was so groggy and exhausted he didn’t even know where he was going.
Tumblr media
Your hands carefully worked at the bracelet you were holding. Gently weaving the material so as not to damage it. Stopping midway through you noticed that the beads you were using were very similar to the beads Neteyam was found of.
A blush creeped onto your cheeks as you thought of him. You'd be lying if you said you didn't have feelings for him. But he was your best friend and nothing more.
"Why is your face like that?" Kiri asked unamused.
Eyes widening at being caught you tried to brush her off. "Like what?"
"Just admit that you were day dreaming about my brother so we can get back to our jewelry." She rolled her eyes.
You started to panic as you felt your entire face heat up. It wasn't that obvious, was it?
"I don't know what you're talking about." You nervously chuckled.
"Oh please," Kiri huffed. "The two of you have been pining after each other for years."
"You’re being dramatic. Neteyam doesn't see me that way." You frowned.
Kiri started laughing but quickly stopped when she saw your somber expression. "Wait, are you serious?” She asked.
"Yes Kiri! We're friends. Only friends. Neteyam would never return my feelings." You sighed.
"You must be blind." Kiri laughed. "He has been obsessed with you for years. To the point that it's alarming how much he talks about you."
"Seriously?"
"It's obvious to everyone but the two of you apparently."
Before you could argue with her the flap of your tent opened to reveal Neteyam himself. Kiri smirked giving you a knowing look.
Neteyam groggily made his way over to you. He looked liked he was half asleep, not even noticing Kiri as he passed her.
Neteyam plopped down next to you nuzzling his face into your neck. Inhaling your sweet scent immediately relaxed his tense body.
"What's wrong 'Teyam?" You softly asked while reaching your hand up to caresses his head.
"Tired." He mumbled against your skin. "Needed my comfort person."
Snuggling more into you his head found it's way onto your lap. He was hugging your arm to his chest.
You melted at the sight of him. He looked like a big comfy toddler. Seeing him like this wasn’t unusual. Despite the mighty warrior mask he wore, Neteyam loved physical touch. Whenever the two of you were alone he practically demanded that you cuddled.
But that was always when you were alone. He had never acted this way around anyone else. You were shocked that he was so relaxed with Kiri sitting right there. Usually you were the only one to see this side of him.
“Told you.” Kiri whispered.
Shushing her you waved her out. Neteyam had fallen asleep and the last thing you wanted was to wake him up.
Lovingly you admired his relaxed face as he slept. Gently you brushed his hair out of his face. A soft smile graced his lips as he begun to purr.
“Sleep well my mighty warrior.” You whispered.

☆。*。☆。
GIRL, HEARD YOU LOUD + CLEAR! I am a completed sucker for Sirius Black, actually for all Marauders. I love the concept of Sirius falling in love with a Slytherin, to me it is just-- *chefs kiss* I really hope you enjoy this, I love you too!
<3 Mar
☆。*。☆。
You were on your way to potions, and losing track of time caused you to full-on sprint to the class. This isn't bad considering the Slytherin common room isn't too far away from the potions classroom -- if you were late for astronomy it would be a completely different story.
You turn the corner and make contact full force into someone's back, both of you tumbling to the ground.
"Bloody hell!" You exclaim rolling off the person you quite literally swept off their feet, "Black?"
Sirius groans and turns over to look at who knocked him down, and his breath catches in his throat. Staring at you, you push your h/c hair out of your face trying to give the boy a cheeky grin.
"Well ten points to Slytherin!" Sirius gives you a dopey grin which causes you to cock your head at him, confused.
"Pardon?" You ask before realizing why you were in such a such before, "Oh my Godric, I am going to be late for class. I will see you later Black!" You scramble to your feet, trying to pull yourself together before taking off to Slughorn's classroom once again.
"Yea uh, I'll see you later --?" Sirius realizes he doesn't know your name.
"Y/n Y/l/n!" You yell back smiling.
"Y/n, interesting." Sirius is still sitting on his arse, running through all the classes he has had with Slytherin trying to remember you. The fact that he can't think of any instance has him confused. Surely someone as beautiful as you he would have noticed.
'What class does she have right now?' He thinks to himself before he realizes that he too, needed to get to potions, "Shite!"
You arrive at class right on time, taking your seat to the far left of the classroom, breathing heavily. You weren't sure if it was because of the sprinting or perhaps the fact you literally tackled Sirius Black, one of the most handsome blokes you have ever seen.
"Alright class, today-" Slughorn is interrupted by the classroom door bursting open by none other than Sirius Black himself.
"Sorry I am late professor, I decided to kiss the corridor floors on my way here," Sirius scans the room until he locks eyes with you, sending you a wink.
"Very well Mr. Black, as I was saying I have decided to rearrange your partners in this class to help with toning down the distractions from certain individuals," Slughorn sends Sirius and the other Marauders a look before instructing everyone to stand up.
In pairs of two names are called with instructions on where to sit, you are broke out of thought when you hear your name.
"Miss Y/l/n, and Mr. Black, you two will sit over here," Slughorn gestures to a table, red rises to your face as you see the smug grin Sirius is wearing.
"Well if I didn't know any better Miss. Y/n, I would say that Merlin wants us to get to know each other," Sirius pulls a chair out for you and pushes it in when you sit down.
"Or maybe it is just a coincidence?" You suggest trying to hide your face which is now more than a light blush, you know you look like a tomato.
"Well princess, I don't believe in coincidences," Sirius winks at you before directing all his attention to Slughorn. This boy would be the death of you, and he hasn't even done anything to you.
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
Sirius enjoyed watching how red your face got when he talked to you, something about how shy you were around him made his heart flutter. He may not have known who you were a few weeks ago, but now you are all that crosses his mind.
"Oi, y/n/n, slow down love!" You stop in your tracks to turn around and face none other than Sirius Black.
"Y/n/n? Since when do you call me that," You ask and Sirius shrugs, and smirks when he notices the blush rising to your face once again.
"Since I decided to I guess, you are headed to Astronomy right?" He questions, even though he bantered one of your fellow housemates for the details of your schedule.
"Uh, yea I am," You answer, looking at the boy confused.
"Great, I have a free period I will walk you," Sirius grabs the bag off your shoulder and swings it over his own.
You stare at the boy as he starts walking toward the Astronomy Tower, "Y/n/n? You coming? I don't want you to have to run to class and knock another bloke off his feet, then I won't feel so special." Sirius winks at you causing you to scoff.
"Oh shove off Black, if I didn't know any better I would say that me knocking you down was the highlight of your life," You smile at the boy, something he found himself enjoying. The way your eyes crinkled and the dimples appeared made his heart swoon.
"Oooo, a spicy one, another ten points to Slytherin," You roll your eyes at the boys antics before joining him on the adventure to the astronomy tower.
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
The past few weeks you have found yourself accompanied by Sirius Black a majority of the time, except for at meals, but every other time he was by your side. The other Marauders were confused by his new behavior but decided not to banter with the boy about it. You were also confused, the moment he knew your name it was as if he was completely enamored by you. Not that you minded, Sirius wanting to know everything about you made you feel special.
There were a few times when the two of you were in the library studying quietly, something you use to do alone, and another girl would approach trying to start a conversation but he would shut it down.
"Can't you see I am busy?" He would say to them without breaking eye contact with you, winking. It was no secret he was a womanizer, but everyone was shocked when he seemed to change over night.
Professors even began to notice, y/n the quiet Slytherin accompanied by Sirius Black, one of the famous Gryffindor Marauders, an unlikely pair but somehow made sense.
Over time you became comfortable around Sirius, and he loved when you would talk about something you were passionate about. You would talk animatedly with your hands and argue your point even if there was no opposing opinion. It was something that made him smile, and when you noticed you were rambling you would stop.
"What?" You ask chuckling, trying to use your hair to shield your reddening cheeks from the boy.
"Nothing," Sirius says as he reaches over the table to push your hair behind your ears, he notices your face red again, "Another ten points to Slytherin."
You slap his hand away sending him a knee-weakening smile, Sirius told himself he would do anything in the world to keep that smile permanently painted on your face.
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
You were sitting in the Slytherin common room, your watch read 3:23 am, you huffed closing your book in defeat. You were trying to study for your upcoming Transfiguration exam, even though you were confident you still wanted to study.
As you stare at the ceiling, you hear the portrait hole open. You snap your head over to see who else is up at this ungodly hour.
"Sirius?" The boy freezes mid-step, looking over at you. He wore plaid pajama pants with a Gryffindor quidditch shirt.
"Bloody hell, y/n/n. You scared the shite out of me," He chuckles before walking over to you and sits across from you with his legs folded in front of him, mirroring you.
"What are you doing here?" You set the Transfiguration book in your lap.
"Well, I knew you would be awake, trying to cram more information into that beautifully brilliant brain of yours," Sirius grabs the book and disregards it to the table beside you both.
"Sirius! I need to study!" You try to reach across the boy who just pushes the book farther away from your reach.
"Y/n/n, you are one of the smartest witches, you do not need to study!" Sirius laughs at your futile attempts to get the book.
With determination, you lunge for the book only for Sirius to grab it and put it between his back and the arm of the couch. Without thinking you crawl into Sirius lap trying to reach behind him, who with the new position forgot the book completely.
Once you grab the book you put it between you two smirking at the boy, who now wore a small smirk and eyes that were filled with an emotion you didn't recognize.
You realize you are sitting in his lap, "Merlin, Sirius I am so sorry. I didn't mean to - I was just -" You attempt to crawl off of his lap, but his hands find your waist to keep you put.
Your e/c eyes lock with his, and the red starts rushing to your face once again. Sirius moves on hand to your cheek while the other is still on your hip, "You look so bloody beautiful when you blush."
The grip on your book tightens, your heart beating so fast. Sirius smiles before dropping his hand from your face to the book. He gently takes the book from your grasp before placing both his hands on your face.
"Y/n, can I kiss you?" Your heart exploded, there is no denying that Sirius was attractive, but the fact he ask for consent to kiss you made him so much sexier.
"Please," You whisper, Sirius pulls your face to his. Your heart was beating so fast you were sure he could hear it. Your hands go up to his hair and he smiles into the kiss.
Sirius pulls away, looking at you with pure admiration. "I have been waiting to do that since you swept me off my feet a few weeks ago," He chuckles before placing a peck on your nose.
You smile before pulling him into another kiss, "Ten points to Slytherin," Sirius whispers against your lips with a chuckle, causing you to smile.
☆。*。☆。
I am literally so soft for Sirius, he is such a beautiful person and you could never change my mind! I hope you guys enjoy this as much as I enjoyed writing it! <3

Hey! I was doctor who ask anon. I'm sorry if I misinterpreted it, but if you meant 9-12 in terms of doctors, could I request a 9th doctor era hcs please where reader and rose become like sibling figures to each other and R opens up about the time war and Rose helps them through some guilt about it?
hai!! you interpreted it right and YES i can!! i luv nine so much <333 i actually think i interpreted your ask a little wrong i couldn’t quite figure out everyone’s relation, but thats totes on me!! feel free to shoot me another ask and ill get to it!!
- first meeting is probably sometime where rose and nine get separated. you come across rose and help her find her way back to nine. the two of them go to take off running but rose grabs your hand and drags you with them :))
- when you get to the tardis its a lot of rose basically going “please can she come with us?” and nine crossing his arms and pretending like he can say no. it just takes a couple seconds and both your guys’ pleading before he drops his arms and goes “alright, it’s on your head!”
- the first trip you guys take, rose grabs your hand takes off running into the crowds. nine just hollers after you guys “don’t get lost!” and rose just giggles. she spends the day buying you food and pretending like she knows what you’re talking about.
- a couple nights into traveling, you realize you didnt really pack any clothes. you show up in rose’s bedroom and she doesn’t hesitate to pull out all her clothes. she has you paw through everything until you find a couple things that suit your style, and she promises to make nine take you guys shopping soon
- nine will swear it didnt happen but one night when none of you guys could sleep, you all just sat in the console area and played various board games nine had picked up over the years

if you’re wondering why I’m having to repost this, or why you were perhaps previously following me but no longer are, please refer to this post. I was able to retrieve this thanks to @rosieathena - thanks so much!! ♡
Spencer Reid x she/her!reader
Tumblr media
Play Pretend
- you and Spencer had been together for 6 months when you got offered a job working with the BAU
- at first, you and Spencer discussed how he was going to introduce you to the team, who had no idea he was even in a relationship
- but then you decided that instead you’d put the team at the butt of the joke, rather than Spencer
- not in a cruel way, just for a bit of fun (but also payback cuz sometimes the team do be assholes to Spencer tho)
- so you decided to show up at the BAU in your separate cars at different times, and act like you’d never met before
- and it was hilarious from the moment it started
- you and Spencer obviously got along really well from the get go, and the team noticed right away
- Spencer fully let himself swoon over you in front of the team, and upon forming friendships with the team yourself, you started to do the same
- you both talked to different people on the team, all of them quizzing you about how you felt about the other then relaying that information to the rest of the team
- they were DESPERATE to set you up
- ESPECIALLY Penelope
- she pretty much followed Spencer around listing reasons why he should ask you out
- so on the odd occasion when Spencer offered to drive you home, or you offered to drive him, the entire team would go into cardiac arrest
- because thanks to some careful address re-routing, none of them were aware that you were headed back to the same house
- the team loved forcing you and Spencer into the same room and leaving you by yourselves, JJ and Derek sending you both on coffee requests at the same time so that you’d meet by the machine, the entire team staring through the window and trying to read your lips to figure out what was being said
- over time, you both let more chemistry show between you, spending a little more time together naturally
- and there were, of course, moments that were unintentional. such as, you grabbing Spencer whenever you got scared, or him getting very protective of you whenever you were in danger or talking to a person who was being an asshole to you
- those werent played up, they were part of your love for each other that naturally shone through
- it went so much better than expected
- every time the two of you got home, you would share stories of what Penelope or JJ or Derek had said to one of you that day about something the other had said, or you’d talk about a particular moment they tried to force between you, and you’d laugh to no end
- it was sheer bliss, a mischevious ongoing prank, the greatest secret
- after a while, it started to feel like you were two lovesick teenagers having to hide your relationship from everyone, which added a whole other layer of excitement to everything
- you knew it couldnt go on forever because eventually the team would figure it out, or your relationship would progress to the extent of you wearing an engagement ring when the team didnt even know you’re in a relationship, whichever came first
- it was very sweet while it lasted, it was like reliving the start of your relationship in an entirely different setting and with a very entertaining audience
- but you knew it had to end, so the two of you started discussing how to reveal the truth
- eventually, you came up with a conclusive plan
- you had to wait for the right opportunity, which was kinda infuriating, because once you’d come up with a plan, you wanted to do it, especially with how funny you knew this was going to be
- the opportunity came after the next case
- the team left the jet and filed back into the building, everyone tired and ready to get home
- you and Spencer had been playing things up just a little more that day, sensing it was getting to the endgame, so everyone was watching you a little closer
- you both went over to Spencer’s desk and pretended to be flirtily discussing something very quietly, Spencer leaning to whisper in your ear with confidence he never would’ve had if you werent already in a relationship with him
- in his peripheral vision, Spencer saw Derek hold his arm out in front of the rest of the team, stopping them walking so that they could all see what was happening
- you giggled, mostly at the team and not at Spencer flirting, because he hadnt been flirting, he’d been telling you the existentialist and the lightbulb joke that never failed to make you smile
- nodding at him, you stepped back from him and took his hand, turning to the team
“We’ll be back in a minute, we left something in the storeroom!” You say, a flushed smile on your face, not giving the team anytime to say anything before you both ran off to the store room next to Penelope’s office
- Spencer pushed you up against the wall, which definitely wasnt necessary because the door was closed and the team wouldnt be able to hear that (despite them all being crowded around the door like horny teenagers), he just felt like being a tease
“Ready?” You asked him, and he nodded, both of you smiling
- with that, you took your phone out of your pocket and clicked into the tab you’d been waiting to use
- Penelope’s computer beeped, the two of you heard her run into her office
“Umm...guys and girls?” She called, and the footsteps of the rest of the team followed her into the office.
“What’s up babygirl?” Derek asked.
“Well, I know this borders on stalking, but I had this tab open on (Y/N)’s information, mainly her social media files but also her more private information, including her address. Which just changed.” Penelope explained hurriedly.
“(Y/N)’s address has changed? Where does she live now?”
“Not where does she live now, it’s where she has lived since she started working here. Take a look.” Penelope clarified, stepping back from her computer to let everyone else see.
- hearing the events unfold, you and Spencer left the store room, sprinting back towards the glass doors
- the team follow you having heard the door open, and they catch Spencer lifting you up by the waist and pulling you back down into a passionate kiss, before the two of you sprint out of the glass doors laughing hysterically
Derek chuckled and crossed his arms. “Damn, they really got us good.”

Lately, i've been so into the evil!shanks theory which gives for angsty headcanons that end up unresolved lol
Anyways, since I'm mostly new to the fandom i didnt know it was an ongoing theory untill i told my friend about it yesterday and she was like yep, congrats, you figured one of the fandom's longest running theories.
In everyone's defense, he's super shady, also the latest scene with him checking luffy's latest bounty was chill inducing, like i'm genuinely not feeling my man here lol.
Anyways, there goes something.
Mishanks dont work out, the longing and yearning is there but they both know that in this life, there's no chance for them to happen.
For all the reputation that red shanks has as this ultimate nice dude for a pirate, who's so strong but above all is a peace maker and thrives for it, Mihawk knows him best. He's been the most intimate with him since their young age.
When he meet the young boy after Roger's execution, the kid was just full of anger and rage none would associate with today's Shanks. Sure, everyone knew not to provoke a lion now but also he happened to grow up into a man that knows how to handle and conceal his emotions, not like the 15 years old kid that couldnt help but show the darkness in his expression.
Mihawk back then chucked it to the death of a parent figure of the boy. His idea of cheering him up was by distracting him with a duel once he saw the sword Shanks carried.
For the short period from their mid' and late teenagehood, Shanks went back to what Mihawk assumed he used to be before the loss he suffered. A happy go lucky, mischievous little pirate gremlin. The boy seemed to really enjoy his duels with Mihawk and keeps on pestering him about meeting more often to which Mihawk couldn't help but to oblige due to fondness he grew for the red head.
When Shanks turned nineteen, it was like something shifted. It felt like the boy was indulging himself a liberty he couldn't afford for so long and now he snapped out of it. They still met as often, they still had their duels but something was wrong with his boy, the underlying darkness he met in the 15years old long ago was back, much more subtle but it was still there nonetheless. Something about him looked as if he was shouldering the weights of the world.
Mihawk, as much as he wanted to reach out, to try and understand, he thought better against it. Shanks was a grown up now, and if he wanted Mihawk in, he wouldnt act like the little pupp he used to be.
Years went by, and the two went through long periods of not meeting, from a year to a couple of years. Mihawk busy beating everyone for the title of the best, feeding Yoru what she thirsts for, a capable opponent and a worthy challenger. While Shanks, taking to the seas with his crew.
Busy, whenever they met, Shanks always seemed satisfied, telling him he's so close to what he's looking for. Mihawk didn't know what the boy was looking for but if it's making him happy he wont question it.
That was untill the day Shanks lost his arm. Seeing the vivre card burn, Mihawk never felt such urgency and panic before. He wasn't a fool, a pirate life meant your life could end any minute and yet, he never had a reason to not trust Shanks to be strong enough and stay alive or the red force to give everything for their captain. When he got to him, Shanks seemed barely bothered by the loss of the limb, in fact, he seemed in quite the mood, like a cat that got the last drop of milk. "I've betted all i have and left it for fate, my friend, and i have a feeling fate is on my side this time." He said to him, the darkness from before there, this time with a glint of madness.
Mihawk wasn't one to be scared, but he'd be lying is he said he wasn't right now. Not for his life, never. But of what Shanks was becoming, what has become of his boy, untill when was he gonna pretend that Shanks wasn't plotting something in the dark that would undoubtedly be the ruin of them.
Mihawk always knew that what they have was time limited, and maybe it was time for it to expire. He had no interest in whatever Shanks is getting up to. He could ruin the whole world and he wouldn't stop him, but he doesnt necessarily want to be involved. He has always been relatively lazy and barely had any interest on things that weren't swords, wine or a certain red head. World demise schemes were nothing he signed up for, unless Shanks asked him to? Because he would join him if asked, he'd do anything, but Shanks didnt ask and Mihawk didnt and wont offer either.
+
Shanks might be fooling a little boy with a straw hat and the entire world with him but he wasn't fooling Mihawk. Shanks knew all they had was borrowed time but for now, he'd enjoy it before he would run out of time.
In the near future, much more important things would need his attention, and the swordsman would be but a warm memory he'd rather not tarnish.

A lot of people say that Lorelai didnt like jess because he reminded her off her younger self which could be true i definitely do think Lorelai saw herself in jess she even told him "ive been there" when jess was acting up. I think lorelai thought she knew exactly what jess was going through but she had it all wrong. Yes, lorelai grew up with mentally abusive parents which made her misbehave and rebel but she always had people to fall back on. Her parents were filthy rich and they would do anything to help their daughter even after she'd abandoned them. Jess did not have this privilege, if he messed up he couldnt go running to his parents for money or shelter or literally anything. Its very clear that jess grew up in an unstable household but i feel like most people dont grasp the horror of jess' life. Liz telling luke that she'd never made dinner for anyone in her entire life, Liz not having a steady career path, her throwing an ashtray at TJ's head (for something that wasnt even TJ's faut) luke telling TJ that when liz is mad at herself she takes out on everyone else, Liz breaking down and throwing everything out when her business failed, her running to luke when she had problems, refusing to fix her life. Thinking about all the terrible things Liz has done to her own brother and her fiance, god knows what she did to jess, her son who she had full parental rights over who lived with her for 17 years. We also know that Liz has had many boyfriends in the past and none of them were decent, we can only imagine what those horrible men and done/tried to do to poor jess. Thats why i think jess took such offence to lorelai telling him she knows what shes going through because she didnt, no one in stars hollow knew. Hell i dont even think luke knew. Maybe he knew a little because he knew Liz but how u treat your brother vs how u treat your son r SO different. I feel like everyone in the whole town casually brushed over all of this, none of them even acknowledged it. I mean some mother sticking her kid on a bus and shipping him miles and miles away to an uncle he barely knows all cause she couldnt handle her own son? And then people wondered why he had an attitude problem and why he pulled dumb pranks and stunts.

oomf reblogged a bunch of aro stuff and in honor of pride hour (i made it the fuck up Dont ask me any questions i dont talk to paparazzi) i want to talk about MYYY experience being arospec because it is Isolating and even if this reaches literally no one id rather at least have tried to share my feelings. Spreading love! 💝
growing up i very quickly realized that i wasnt getting crushes like the other kids were. as early as second grade i started trying to force myself to like the boys in my class. id, like, look around the classroom at the start of every new school year and look for the next boy to have a "crush" on. It sounds kind of funny looking back but like i remember how desperate i felt doing it. i remember one year i genuinely hated every boy in my class with a burning passion and, if nothing else, i remember the feeling of being wrong. i, a 4th (maybe 3rd?) grader, felt isolated and gross because i couldnt force a crush for a year.
i had known none of the other ones were really crushes, but it wasnt the romance i wanted it was the connections. i wanted to be able to join the girls talking about their crushes and i wanted to have a reason to try talking to boys; i wanted to be liked.
in 6th grade i think was the first time i didnt try to force a crush. i dont remember much from that year but i know that i didnt feel good. youd think that, as an arospec, i would have enjoyed the break from faking romance but at that point i didnt understand that my feelings werent quite real. i knew they werent like everyone elses, but i really wanted them to be even if it meant lying a bit to myself on the way. i felt wrong and weird.
in seventh grade that was when covid hit and everyone was quarentined, and also that is the year that holds my worlds most obvious example of my aromanticism ever. genuinely think back to this and go "how didnt i figure it out sooner"
i convinced myself i had a crush on my at-the-time best friend. there was no crush by the way, i judt knew i liked him more than all my other friends and to my socially deprived brain that meant it had to be romantic right? well he didnt like me back and literally i went, watched like two YouTube videos on something or other, and was over it. because the feelings were never genuine. it was never love it was a desire to be close with someone
8th grade was the first time i actually fell in love. by then i had figured out im a lesbian, and i met this girl named Jane. She was literally everything you could want in a girl and i fell HARRDDDDDDD i was so in love dont even. but I found that my capacity to love her fluxuated. the love was always there, but some days it was more platonic than anything. sometimes thr platonic periods would stretch for weeks. sometimes it would switch between platonic and romantic multiple times a day. it confused me and honestly? it scared me a lot. i distanced myself from her and eventually we broke up (for seperate reasons but this def contributed)
that really messed with me because now i was left with two understandings: i can definitely experience romantic attraction, and the romantic attraction can change at the drop of a hat.
after a lott of time and research i finally realized and accepted that im aromanticflux (will go into detail if necessary) and you know what? it didn't make me feel better. if anything it made me feel worse; i felt like such an asshole for getting in a relationship if it was always going to end.
now i am. Still coming to terms with my identity but i am learning to love and be kind to myself. the point of this whole thing is. youre never alone. there are eight billion people on earth, at least one of them is going through the exact same thing as you right now. you are not any less of a person because of your attraction or lack thereof

I'm not sure if you're accepting requests at this time, but if you're feeling up to it as this is an idea going around it seems:
Ruby Ascends in the Ever After. But now she is nothing but her purpose to save Remnant, if it/or someone does not contribute to that goal, then she doesn't care about it, just complete apathy for anything other than her purpose.
How would WBY take this?
(Getting this out before the new episode so I dont lose what I want to do with this. Might not be completely accurate, but you did ask for this.)
Ruby came back but everything was wrong. 
The first to notice was Yang. It should’ve been more clear to her that something was off, Ruby came back slightly older, hair longer and more like Summer’s, but Crescent Rose was still on her back and she was still Ruby. What really made her realize she wasnt the right Ruby was her smile. It was empty, no longer hiding pain, no longer trying to radiate optimism. It was forced, almost as if she didnt care beyond her single minded mission to get back to Remnant. 
Blake was the next to realize something wasnt right about Ruby. No longer did the huntress seem to care about the issues they passed, pushing Jaune away and only ever heading through the Ever After to reach the tree. But what really struck that something was wrong was how she treated the Curious Cat. It became clear that she treated the cat differently to reach the tree, almost as if she didnt care about anyone else or anything else unless it led everyone back to Remnant. 
Weiss realized it once she tried to apologize and Ruby blew her off. Her heart broke as she tried to make things right with her friend, only to be pushed aside as if what happened never mattered. Words that were said still lingering in her mind, still upset at herself for not seeing the pain that Ruby was in and only focusing on her own. Words left unsaid that she desperately wanted Ruby to know, but this Ruby didnt want to hear. 
Jaune was the last to realize what was wrong, figuring that Ruby was still upset with him. When Neo attacked again, he realized it wasnt the same Ruby he knew. The Ruby he watched fight through Neo’s images didnt seem to care about what came to the end of her scythe, instead slicing through anything that got in its way. Allies, enemies, plants and trees, Ruby had no regard to anything that had gottten in her way. 
Once they were all back to Remnant after going through the tree, they figured Ruby would be herself again. Yang kept an eye on Ruby while Blake and Weiss did what they could to help share the burden that Ruby carried, trying to give gentle reminders that they were there for her. 
But none of that seemed to matter to Ruby. 
Yang finally had enough once they reached Vacuo and shoved Ruby against the wall of a building. “What’s going on with you?” she asked. “I know you’re not feeling great about everything that happened, but you’ve changed. What happened to you?” 
“I found a new purpose,” Ruby said, her voice steady and calm but still devoid of the optimism it usually had. “I know what I need to do to make sure Remnant is safe, how to stop Salem. I can finally be the hero like in all the fairytales.” 
“...you ascended, didnt you?” Yang pulled back as all the pieces finally started to make sense. The way Ruby treated anything in her way that wasnt allowing them to reach Remnant. The way she fought as if time was being wasted, the way she moved through every obstacle as if it was just another annoyance in the way. “Rubes, you didnt need to-” 
“But I wanted to, Yang. Ruby couldnt… I couldnt be the hero that needs to stop Salem. So, now I am.” 
“But you’re not… you. At least, not anymore.” 
“I could never be me if it meant stopping Salem.” Ruby let out a soft sigh, a little emotion starting to slip through the cracks of the mask she continued to wear. “Ruby was just a shadow of Summer, of the heroes of fairytales and the stories of how huntresses are supposed to be the ones to keep everyone safe. So, instead, I’m now Ruby Rose, guardian of Remnant. A new person with a new purpose to keep everyone safe.” She paused and took a breath as her body shook to get her back on track. “And right now, that means we need to safeguard the relic and then take the fight to Salem. We’ll find where she’s at and I’ll stop her.” 
Yang could only watch as Ruby started to walk away, her heart breaking as she watched her sister continue forward. She knew none of this was right, that the Ruby she had known as a sister was gone and replaced with a different Ruby from the Ever After, a Ruby who would only keep going until her purpose was fulfilled or until she died trying. 
“Is everything okay with her?” Weiss asked, arm held to her chest. 
“She… ascended.” 
Weiss looked down at the ground and wiped a tear from her eyes. “Of… of course she did. After everything we did, after everything she said… of course she ascended.” 
Yang slowly reached out to Weiss and put a hand on her shoulder. “We’ll get her back-” 
“But we wont be able to, will we?” Weiss put up a weak smile as she tried to hide the pain in her heart. “She’ll stop Salem and then… what happens? Will she be pulled back to the Ever After for a new purpose? Will her purpose carry her away somewhere else? Its… Its going to be problem after problem for her to fix to help save Remnant, she’s never going to be back.” 
“We’ll talk to Ozpin and find a way to get her back. Back to herself.” 
Blake finally spoke up, ears folded. “And we need to prepare for the idea that we cant get her back. At least, not fully. And even if Ozpin does know how to get her back, does that mean we’ll have to go back to the Ever After?” 
“I… I dont know…” Yang sighed, eyes still glued to Ruby as she watched her sister speak with Headmaster Theodore about the relic’s defenses. “But we’ll get her back. Even if it means giving everything up.” 
—--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ruby panted as the dust settled, scythe blade broken next to her as her legs gave out. It had been a long shot, but she had managed to trap Salem in the space the relic vaults inhabited, finally freeing Remnant from her. A sense of serenity washed over her, quickly interrupted by Weiss’s voice. 
“Ruby? Ruby!” Weiss called out. “Ruby!” 
“I’m… still here…” Ruby said, voice weak as she felt her body start to give out. Her arms felt like they weighed her down, her chest pounded as her heart throbbed. “I… I did it. I saved Remnant.” 
“What… did you do? I… I dont see her.” 
“I trapped her in the space where the relics were kept.” Ruby smiled a bit. “She wont be coming back.” 
Weiss tried to help Ruby up, her hand going right through her. Her arm shook as she desperately tried to pick her friend up, each attempt ending up as the same as the last. “Ruby? What… what’s going on?” 
“I’m… done.” Ruby fell back as her voice started to become emotionless, her body slowly dissolving into rose petals as she watched a tree start to grow in front of her. “I need a new purpose, but the tree cant give me one.” 
“But Remnant isnt saved yet!” Weiss started to try to gather the rose petals as they broke off Ruby and slowly started to disappear, her fingers digging into the dust left from the grimm. “We still have to deal with the relics. A-and then the huntsmen academies! You heard Cinder, everything is still broken and its going to take years for us to get things right! And then there’s the faunus! We can help Blake and Yang-” 
“But that wasnt my purpose.” A smile crossed Ruby’s lips as she closed her eyes. “Maybe one day I’ll make it back to the Ever After and gain a new purpose. But for now, Ruby’s purpose to save Remnant from Salem is finished. She’s never coming back and I have no reason to stay.” 
“Of course you do Ruby!” Weiss slammed her hand down onto Ruby’s chest, freezing as her partner disappeared into a storm of petals that disappeared in the light. Her eyes widened as her arms shook, a few words still on her tongue. Words she had wanted to say for months but never had the right time to say it. Instead, she slowly picked herself up, holding back the tears that so desperately wanted to leave her. 
Yang finally made her way to Weiss, panting as she leaned against the doorway. “Weiss? Did you find her?” 
Weiss looked silently up at Yang, and then back to the broken blade of Crescent Rose. Her heart finally broke as her legs gave out and tears started to flood out. 
Yang made her way to Weiss to help comfort her, pausing when she saw the broken blade and no Ruby in sight. “She’s… gone, isnt she?” 
Weiss nodded between sobs and pressed into Yang. 
“Lets get out of here,” Yang said as she picked Weiss up and helped her walk. “We’ll figure out what to do next.”

Rant incoming, sorry!!
Do they even know WHY they are fighting and killing??
Im still trying to figure out why tubbo and bad thought to attack red first and then yell revenge when red retaliated. Like, why?? (I'm crow and red main so I probably won't watch the others for the lolz) Chaotic angst energy.
And people keep saying because of Dapper and what Dapper said. And I'm like "what?" Because with that same logic/energy qPhilza can say the same if decided to do the same. "Chayanna said to protect Tallulah no matter what- so Ima kill everyone in sight for whatever reason." That sounds crazy. Right? (Is it just me??)
Like we(their little community/family) been talking and communicating all this time why now does it go out the window? because some random guy who doesnt like us said so? (Quackity did warn them in Brazil tho)
We know the fed dont like us and can't be trusted so why are we not having that same energy towards this guy?
Like I get it, I do. Things are on the line or so it seem but why aren't we actually thinking things through?? Talking?? Coming up with a plan to get everyone and the eggs home. Do we not care for all life anymore?
Its about to be Day 3 and I am so drained from Day 1. Like Charlie's voice, I'm struggling now. My soul is heavy as a red pov.
And yes we won Day 2 but everything has consequences... like please..
I- I just want them to talk for more than a couple seconds.. minutes before thoughts of killing off rip..
*peepoHands*
(I hope it was okay to come to you)
Dont worry about the rant! I like hearing other peoples opinions on things and dont get many asks often so anythings appreciated.
As someone whose main povs are team blue i still understand you entirely but also can explain a couple things (in a similar ranty form lol):
First of all as to why they were killing: I think on day one the competitive nature of the event was at the forefront of blues mind. Bad had been told by his son (who, remember, he literally kidnapped a worker to save) to do anything to win even if it hurt others. Which honestly does imply hostility a bit more than chayannes message. Tubbo also wants chayanne and tallulah (and richarlyson) back like theyre his own children (and has definitely been over excited and trying to prove himself as leader of blue so is being more competitive for his own pride). They were thrust into this situation with all that in mind and just wanted to win by any means, or at least thats the vibe i got.
None of them fully understood the rules of the event either. They tragically fell to the tragic mcyt curse of not reading instructions. They didnt even think about the cursed team until i think it was slime who said he thought red was cursed at which point niki insisted (and still insists) she doesnt think there is a cursed team. Tubbo thought the cursed team changed daily, if you want further proof that rules were not at the forefront of their mind. They just wanted to win since that was what the eggs had said to do. Of course now ccs are more aware of the rules they are keeping them in mind but no one seems to be proposing full teamwork yet.
Funny enough, i think ive mentioned it in a post before but red being their target on day 1 was entirely on accident. Bad killed slime first under the impression he was on green and then continued to go for his team because they happened to be not too far. From what ive gathered, green was bloodthirsty but struggling to find the other teams so thats why blue and red originally started fighting. As for getting angry at retaliation? I think thats just competitive spirit getting in the way.
The whole thing was slightly frustrating personally from a viewer pov because im exactly with you in the fact that they should be talking. They should be figuring out the cursed team. They should be boosting the cursed teams stats. But they didnt understand that and instead went hostile immediately due to the newness of the whole thing.
Even yesterday bad was considering killing red and i was a little frustrated. I get that he was annoyed (if u dont know yesterday blue grinded global tasks but were barely gaining percentage compared to etoiles - at one point they handed smth in and got like 1% - and bad thought kills may have helped them a bit) but blue didnt need to win day 2! If anything that wouldve been detrimental to them considering the cursed team is still unknown (but bbh thinks blues cursed so...). Eventually he settled on bargaining with them by offering something in return for a kill but never got a chance to because he ran out of time. Still, the suggestion was a bit frustrating at the time as someone who was seeing red having a terrible time from liveblogs.
I definitely consider most of day one out of character, as there is no way in hell the characters shouldve been acting the way they did considering all they were supposed to know. Even if qbbh would do anything for dapper he definitely wouldnt outright hurt his friends or risk the other eggs chances of survival. (Also this entirely broke cellbits current arc of being very agressive considering how badly hes been beat down this event.)
Even just hearing about red on both days was draining for me. The one reason im not vodwatching them is that i could feel the draining vibes from liveblogs alone so i cant image what it must be like to main them and while im happy they won, their strategy today was a lot more aggressive compared to everyone else who was trying to tone it down a bunch so i fear for the next few days on everyones povs as the aftermath of that plays out.
Thankfully ive heard bagi wants to unite the teams and bad and baghera discussed getting a group together to theorise about the cursed team so maybe between the three of them things can start moving in the right direction and return to being in character and communicating. Todays the event which may not allow for anyone to unite everyone immediately but i hope they do sooner rather than later.

@marscats37 - (in response to this horrific statement I’ve just made🤪)
here’s the thing - everyone in the Elysium palace knows the truth.* to this day no one on Asgard does.
edit after I finished writing this and sat back and looked at what I even said; hi this got way away from me and barely answered your question and turned into an essay about Elysium!Thor. oops! WELL!!!
*actually- I don’t know if Maci knows the specific details? She wasn’t privy to his memories back then and they hated each other up until recently so. hmmm. oh I’ll revisit that thought. Anywayyy
and now I’m putting it behind a cut cause I got lONG AGAIN AAHHHH. cw ofc for child death and abuse mentioned ig and also mentions of past suicide attempts-
So — first of all obviously elysium!Thor does exist if I haven’t made that clear, he’s. there’s no real changes of note except for probably what I’m about to say lmfao so take that information as you will. though he hasn’t been in canon for QUITE some time — do we all know that Thor came with him when Loki ended up in Elysium!? Loki’s Memory Theater had continued all the way from early childhood up through the events of 2011/2012, presented all laid out to Tory, Epi, Thor, and Pasi when Loki had first come, the communal attempt to speedrun-therapy him. Together they all SAW undeniably everything that had happened, including to all the kids. the first half of this was-,, even before the twins were killed,, I mean just such clear insane cruelty that Thor like. first refused to believe it was real?!,
there was a whole nother altercation where Thor approached Loki like this CANNOT actually be things that have happened to you, these gods are planting images in your head, if this was all real I would have noticed I would have stopped it :( to which of course Loki went ballistic like you DIDNT notice and you DIDNT stop it and how dare you accuse my MEMORIES of being lies— Tory found out that this fight had happened when Loki was suddenly moodier than normal and Thor was stomping around outside and Tory was SO FURIOUS at Thor — wait wait I’m scrolling back to 2012 - oooo we get a real quote from the end of this argument, quoth Tory:
“You bring him back, he'll run away again. And next time, he might not end up here. He'd rather die than go back. […] He's already tried to kill himself. Do you want him to die? […] Then you will stay here for him, take his memories as truth, and understand everything that he feels. If you have any objection, get the fuck out of my kingdom.”
hey I love Tory so much. Also worth mentioning that Loki did overhear this entire conversation in the action of moodily eavesdropping of course. one point scored for Elysium wowie
so after being successfully snarled back into his place by Tory who was also on fire by the end of that little chat Thor returned with a slightly more open mind and watched in rising horror as he realized what their father had done to him under his nose. And then Vali and Nari. the death of Vali and Nari was viewed in Memory Theater but cut short - Loki had BEGGED them not to play through it, and when Epi and Tory insisted, since he also refused to talk about it, he’d just shut down. None of them were prepared for how horrible it was, the memory of walking into the scene of death, and it was the only time through all of this sideshow that nightmare god himself Epi shattered the dream in horror, everyone waking back up in hysterics. because of this— and this is crucial — they did not get to SEE Loki finding out how this had happened.
by this point Tory (&co.) had more than proven themselves to Loki. please reread that above paragraph again that Tory had unflinchingly unhesitatingly growled into Thor’s face, when Loki had been living in the palace for like three weeks only. And so Tory & co found out the specific details of how they’d died when Loki, in an actual conversation right after they’d watched ^that, told them.
Loki did not include Thor in that conversation.
After, he was witness to the other bits and pieces surrounding their death, plus what he remembered himself - viewing now the horrifying conversation Loki had with Odin after the fact, to Thor’s own memory of scraping his brother off the throne room floor. Thor’s… a fuckin ditz but he’s not a COMPLETE idiot??? The context clues were very clear that Odin had had.,, somethinG..,, to do with their deaths the way he’d had something to do with everything but Loki had no desire to share the depths of that truth with him. For what purpose???????? especially now??? With every intention of leaving all thoughts of Asgard dead and gone forever, why spur Thor to lay siege upon the whole place on his behalf (this COULD have been the knowledge to do it too.)? Forget it all, Loki’s renounced all parents and birthplaces. There’s no point. Better to keep distance forever in an actual happily ever after. (Plus then he got Vali and Nari back ANYWAY).
so… no, no one really knows, even now - just Thor. A little. Just Thor looking at his father with a touch more disgust, but knowing also that Loki is hidden forever, and defending him could mean exposing him. Odin has.,, experienced no consequences ever for what he’s done. In the eyes of Asgard, the last thing anyone remembers Loki doing was going insane and trying to murder his own family including his own brother and then vanishing only to reappear trying to take over a planet like a wackjob so STILL no one thinks very highly of Loki. He caused endless problems, gave birth to monsters, was moody and dangerous, betrayed everyone he knew, and is now gone forever and hopefully dead. Poor Odin AllFather didn’t deserve the burden of dealing with him. And they all lived happily ever after.
This is how Loki prefers it, though.
Yknow, once the ghosts of the twins were brought to Elysium, Thor and Loki’s Elysium reconciliation did take place - apologies from Thor, Loki’s guard lowering one single time into heaps of tears and clinging in a heap in the hallway, before Loki peeled himself back away from him. Closure, at least. Eventually Thor did leave, around after Fjoer was born, knowing that Loki was in good hands and knowing that Loki was., actually happy?? finally???
Within the context of Current Elysium - Loki considers himself estranged from Thor and has no desire to rekindle a closer relationship, it’s like. First of all he’s fucking annoying to everyone in the palace and to him lmao. Most importantly. but second of all like,, the previous stages of Loki’s life and upbringing and childhood and past were so traumatizing that Thor’s entire existence is?? tangled up in that? like,, it’s Painful, unfortunately, to be with him, as being with him comes with those memories of [GESTURES, SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS]. this… is something that Loki’s sad about if he thinks too hard about it but would never, ever admit. He also would never ever admit that he keeps tabs on where Thor is at all times and has saved every one of the one million letters Thor has sent him, even though hes never once responded. But he keeps them.
The last of his kids Loki allowed Thor to wvwn meet were Eisa and Einmyria - and ONLY because after several years of no contact, he’d ambushed Thor in a panic in one single night to help him get to Fen & Jör and free them to prevent ragnarok. The literal only person he could count on to help him on a QUEST - cause the kids were being born NOW right now!!! and there was no time to waste - and Thor agreed to help him!!! ….in exchange for getting to meet his new nieces pretty please please please please🥺🥺🥺 after that- back to estrangement - lmao I’m pretty sure Libby thinks Loki is an only child 🫣
SO, to answer your question. yes the people Loki is closest to - the residents of the palace - all know the truth. Anyone else - he’s given up on long ago, and his old life is dead and buried to him now. Odin - head high, no regrets, father of the year forever.
PHEW!

Here have a new part of the story! @gyubby99
The sun was fully up now and the camp site was bustling with all the people in it. "I should get back. I dont want everyone to think I up and left." Ella stated as she stood up. "Right. Oh! I have your corset done. Obviously it goes on the outside of your clothes... I didnt want you to wear it wrong and I forgot to tell you... but just come by and pick it up when you're ready." Elias rambled. Ella chuckled. "Thank you I will later today after I visit your cousin." Ella stated as she walked away. She was flattered. Leather doesn't seem like an easy thing to craft. He must've stayed up fairly late to finish it. Ella hurried to Eve's tent to see how the clothes were going. "Eve?" She called. Eve's head poked out from behind the small wooden counter that held some small pastries and a loaf of bread. "Oh! Ella! Good news. So I found some old clothes that I thought would fit you and fixed them up so they would!" She exclaimed as she looked through a small box. She pulled out a black pair of pants and a white blouse that looked like it had belonged to a pirate once. She also pulled out some thigh high black leather boots. "Here you are! I hope you like them!" Eve exclaimed once again. "Go on go on try them on!" She stated, ushering ella behind a small changing curtain. As Ella came out, dressed in her new clothes, she looked in the mirror. The pants were intentionally tight and they came up passed her stomach. Her blouse was tucked into them and fell lightly on her skin. The boots were absolutely amazing, and surprisingly comfortable. Ella pulled her hair back into a ponytail. "It's amazing! And the pants are tight but they dont feel like they'd rip or anything and they're very comfortable!" Ella exclaimed as she bent her legs at a few different angles. "Thank you! I just thought the pants seemed a good material to use and fix up!" Eve explained. "Fantastic! None of my clothes have been this amazing! You truly have a gift." Ella smiled. Eve blushed. "Awe thanks! If you like my clothes you should try my pastries!" She recommended. "Oh I would love to. But I'm afraid I dont have any money with me right now." Ella stated. "Oh no need! Everything I sell is free! We get enough trouble with.. well you know." Eve finished. Ella nodded.

Sometimes i feel so weirdly bad for my memories not following canon, but atst... im so glad that they dont.
Its a great show, dont get me wrong, but... it never felt right, a lot of it. Especially the end. I did love you, Kagome--but you were only 16. Why would you give up everything to live in the past? Your family, your friends, all the day dreamed lives you'd imagined up until you fell through the well? And for that matter, why did your mother let you? If we had been a bit older perhaps id understand but... God. It feels awful to say but im glad my Kagome didnt stay. Im glad she went home. I can't imagine living in the feudal era after only ever knowing the comfort and security of modern life being anything but absolute misery. I wouldn't have been able to give her kids, anyway.
Im also glad, and feel bad, for the fact that that means the events of yashahime never happened for me. No kids--at least not that soon, for neither me nor my brother. Which also means none of them had to deal with the Kirinmaru situation. I haven't watched the series in full, but i recognize him. I dont like that i recognize him, amongst the unfamiliarity of everything and everyone else in that show. Very... pit-at-the-bottom-of-my-stomach feeling, haha. At least i know that my brother and I were on... Genuinely good terms whenever that happened. Nice bedhead by the way, jackass.
And then of course theres Koga. I still dont remember a lot about him, besides a few... Steamy things. Which is kind of disconcerting when i cant remember confidently if he still married Ayame or not, or if something happened to her. Either way, it was an interesting relationship. At least until the politics got involved.
I dont even know what im talking about, i think i just need to ramble since i dont really go into kin spaces anymore, besides this blog. Got no one to ramble to anymore--nevermind sourcemates. Theres more than a few problematic things about my canon that i dont think a lot of people would like; stuff i haven't mentioned. Thats gonna stay in anonymous fanfiction for now lmao.
Point is--i hope everyones ok. I miss you all a lot. I hope you're happy and safe, wherever you are now.
-- Inuyasha

ive been meaning to vent on here about work for a long time now so here
i was hired in as a shift supervisor at a brand new starbucks with all brand new employees aside from another supervisor, Mylah, who is a 4yr partner(remember her), and maybe 2 others or so. none of us knew what we were doing. i was barista trained separately from the rest, followed by supervisor training, and then a week off. I came back and had no idea what the hell i was doing, and everyone was mad that i didnt know what to do??
Mylah trained me, and it was brutal. She would critique everything i did, and I always defended myself, saying "why do i need to do it that way if this way gets the same results?" and she did Not like that lmao and the entire training was incredibly tense.
Months pass, and she is worse than ever. she's had several lectures about her behavior but not a single writeup. Nothing has changed. She trained a new supervisor a few weeks ago, and she treated her the same way as she did with me. At some point she slammed a freezer and started shouting, making her cry, and Everyone in lobby turned their heads. i felt awful and wanted to say smth, but I'm genuinely scared of her. Everyone is. Several people have admitted to me that they call off when they see Mylah on the schedule.
The other day, the lobby was empty, and we were free to talk about all the harassment we've faced with her. I cant even remember all of it there's so much but uh here's a list of stuff i remember:
My manager gave Jenn some extra hours, and when they came in, Mylah cornered them, asking why they stole all her hours?? Jenn was comfused because they were literally just added to the schedule so that they would have enough bodies on the floor. Apparently Mylah was pissy at them for the entire rest of their shift, which sucks bc they were already working 12hrs that day:'(
I became friends with a barista named Diana, who is hispanic, and Mylah (white) would always say rude things that made her uncomfortable, saying its okay because her bf is mexican ._. It became a problem and eventually Mylah started looking through all her stuff to get her fired, and succeeded. Diana told me that Mylah would joke with the other baristas about how im stupid and bad at my job, and she said she always stood up for me which definitely did not help her with this whole situation but I greatly appreciate her for it, and we still talk!
Anna said Mylah was talking to her about me and how i do my job wrong. she said i don't face the bills the same way in the deposit bag, and that I dont fill in the money order right so I'm the reason we have so many goddamn nickles, and she said I don't double count the drawers and that's why there's so many mistakes with the deposit. the funny thing is, i DO face the bills the same way, I have never even DONE a money order because that's morning's job, I TRIPLE count the drawers bc i have anxiety, and nobody has EVER said anything to me about the deposit being off.
At some point someone said ret*rded, and Mylah is autistic and was rightfully mad, and brought her to the back to yell at her. not sure what she said but when she came back she went up to me, and only me, and apologized. so like that really hurted but okay whatever ill just go kill myself ig
Mylah was opening one day and told Morgan that since I was closing that it would probably take longer than usual to close? I asked Morgan how Mylah was with closing, and she said that nothing gets done until the absolute last minute, and it takes at least half an hour to finish closing. My record is 2 minutes past close.
Jenn and Taylor told me that I'm their favorite out of all of the shifts, because I make sure to get everything done, I am fast, efficient, and if they have a question I will do my best to figure out a solution for them. Apparently, when they ask Mylah a question, she answers with, "I dont know man, I just work here" and walks away. which like. mood. but she's getting paid 20/hr compared to the baristas at 15/hr, and there is absolutely no reason that the baristas should have to pick up her slack.
Anna used to be friends with Mylah, and they went to get piercings together, and Mylah thought it would be super funny to snapchat Anna having a panic attack about the needle! outside of work, but still fucked up
theres more idk
Mylah got it in my head that I'm the worst of all of the supervisors, and when I found out I was almost all the baristas' favorite, I started visibly shaking with relief! Ive been trying so so hard to make up for how "bad" i am at my job in fear that everyone will hate me otherwise, and now I gind this out and I don't know how to handle this information jdgdheb
I asked them if they would like to talk to the manager as a group, hoping that will show her just how serious the situation is. I don't usually pray for someone to get fired, but I want her ass permanently out of my sight asap

Hi guys welcome back to another episode “rose please stop talking”
Our main topic today is Rachel Amber from Life is Strange
Tumblr media
I love her
I think she’s a really complex and interesting character. I don’t think she’s an evil manipulative whore, because some people actually think that and it’s gross. No I’m not saying that she is so obviously in the right, I’m saying that the situation is not black and white, like at all. (If you disagree with any of this, cool, just move on, I don’t want to debate, I just really find Rachel and her relationship with Chloe interesting)
Everyone knew of Rachel, but very few people actually knew Rachel, it was possibly only Chloe that truly knew Rachel. That leads me to believe she has trust issues. We see that her relationship with her family is strained and they seem pretty distant, possibly some emotional neglect, which is another sign that can point to trust issues, daddy issues, maybe attachment issues. In Rachel’s relationship with other people we can assume that she gets attached quickly, but gets bored quickly too, once again pointing to possible attachment issues. If Rachel’s family is emotionally neglectful, she could start to depend on others which explains her need to be seen (modeling, acting). Besides the normal teenage angst, she’s dealing with family issues and I have to assume some sort of undiagnosed mental illness.
With the mix of Daddy issues, possible emotional neglect, and a need to feel/be seen, she starts to depend on other peoples validation, specifically older men (her relationships with Frank and Jefferson). Frank and Jefferson groomed her, they groomed a vulnerable, struggling, young girl. None of that is Rachel’s fault. What happened to her is a tragedy and she is a victim. Is she completely innocent? No. She obviously truly hurt Chloe. She should have told Chloe about Frank and Jefferson. But she was being fucking groomed. I don’t think Jefferson would have reacted well to Rachel telling anyone. Rachel’s thing with Frank could have simply just been for drugs, and again the whole daddy issues and needing validation thing, another possibility is Rachel maybe using him as an out of Arcadia Bay.
Rachel did hide stuff from Chloe. But that doesn’t mean she didn’t care. Chloe was probably one of the few people Rachel did really care for. We know Rachel has many friends, but she was only really herself with Chloe. I think the intensity began to scare her, because Rachel has never been able to truly be herself. I think that Rachel began to hide things, partly because she probably knew she shouldn’t talk about her relationships with Rachel and Jefferson, but also because she didn’t want to hurt Chloe. What she did was shitty and I’m not defending her actions, but I think Rachel is a good character, and I think she’s more complex than “oh she doesn’t feel emotions and is a slut and uses people”.
I think that Chloe and Rachel’s friendship was needed for both of them. Rachel was going through so much and needed anyone to see her, Chloe did. And Chloe needed anyone to be there for her after Max, and Rachel was. Rachel made it clear from day one that one day, she might just disappear. Rachel might have had the same feelings for Chloe, but she didnt want to feel trapped, yet she already did because of everything else in her life, which probably where this spiral taking her to increasingly worse decisions and dark things began.
Rachel loved Chloe but her need for escape was stronger than her love.
