#some years i'm like 'yeah ok! lets do sth'

every time i've managed to forget about my upcoming birthday this past week, my phone has unceremoniously reminded me of it.
i don't know who invented this feature ("oh bug! it's your birthday soon!"), but it wasn't there last year and i hate it.
#personal#i am very flippety floppedy about that day#some years i'm like 'yeah ok! lets do sth'#and this year is just one of those where i want to forget about it#i'm at the point where i honestly hope that everyone forgets it this year because i'm just not in the mood to turn 25#i also just don't want to deal with the disappointment that comes from knowing that unless i'm the one planning it#nothing is going to happen. that's my role in the friendgroup. i get people's asses up to plan the birthday parties for the other folks#even then half of them can't be fucking bothered to even look at what we've planned and put forth minimal effort#honestly the past year was just very disheartening#we celebrated everyone's birthday but i was just sad at how little of a shit everyone else gave when it cames to celebrating anyone else#idk IDK why it bothers me so much#i just really love celebrating the people that i love#i realize i'm just adverse to it because i've had many negative experiences with it in the past and such#now it's just something i try to avoid#hightlights from last year though.. surprise bday for Danielsan#that boy was SHOCKED it was so sweet. we had so many people over and i loved seeing him so happy with everyone who showed up#and a 'kid' themed birthday at the behest of and for Kenny (it was awesome- i planned a whole scavenger hunt)#the others were more subdued and just having a nice homely brunch at our place but we always made sure to celebrate#i love these people a lot and they make me feel fuzzy inside#but they're TERRIBLE at planning lmfao

plot: them with a popular! chubby! fem! s/o; fluff!
reader: chubby! popular! fem! Reader
characters: yuuta, maki
warnings: mentions of fatshaming/homophobia, reader is sassy, mild spoilers for culling game arc (?, spoilers for jjk s2, use of Japanese honorifics, reader and maki are both lesbian in maki's part, a creep in maki's part
a/n: littleeeee bit of a self-insert... I jus wanted 2 write a lil sth LOL, yuuta is 2nd year btw
Tumblr media
YUUTA
a little backstory on the reader!! ok soso reader is a 2nd year who's the closest with the first years and in this au you're really close to yuji...you currently maintain a long-distance relationship with yuuta! (let's pretend culling games didn't happen lol)
so let's rewind to the episode where the slice of life is happening (aka the "yuji bf material" ep ACK)
it was just supposed to be the first years but you were in the area too cuz you had just finished a mission, and yuji REALLLYYYY wanted to watch Earthworm Man 4... so you reluctantly agreed to go with them
(ps the first years kinda have a crush on you,, like idolizing ykwim)
so the four of you finished the movie when you recieved a call from your bf
so you talk blah blah blah and you're like "wait, isn't it like 3 am in Africa?" and he replies with a nervous chuckle and a "well,, guess where I am now?" and you literally scream into the phone... okie the fic is down below!!
"You're WHAT?" You screamed into the phone. "(name)-senpai, please shut up." Megumi deadpanned. "sorry, megumi. BABE, YOU'RE WHAT?" "Babe?" The three underclassmen shared a confused look. "Wait, you're here? Like in front of the movie theater? I don't see-WAITHOLYSHITISTHATYOU-" The three of them turned heads to see the direction you were waving in. "(name)!" Yuuta yelled excitedly. "O-okkotsu-senpai!" Megumi said with a surprised look on his face. "Who's he?" Nobara whispered to you, giving yuuta a weird look. "Show some respect." Megumi hisses while glaring at Nobara. "Ah, it's fine!" Yuuta smiles at all of them. "I'm just here to visit my wonderful girfriend!" "Girlfriend?" The three underclassmen feign a shocked expression as Yuuta squishes your cheeks together. "(n-name) has a boyfriend?!" Yuji squeaks. "Don't forget honorifics, it's disrespectful!" Megumi scolds once again, but he's the most surprised one of them all. "I thought you were single!" Nobara pouted. "Well, I'm not. Y'all ain't got a chance with me anyways." You smirked while giving Yuuta a peck on the cheek, leaving him flustered. "Awww... but I wanted to ask (name)-senpai out..." Yuji mumbles. "What?" Suddenly the atmosphere became cold and dark, and yuuta was glaring at a certain someone. "I-I mean-I thought-" Yuji stammered. "Yuu, babe, let's go. Let's go watch Barbie!" You insisted, pulling on his sleeve. "Okay, sure!" Yuuta's entire face lightens up as you pull him into the cinema. "O-Okkotsu senpai sure is scary..."
MAKI
reader is a 2nd year in this too :3
soooo maki is really like NOT open at all about your personal life, it's not that she's embarrassed of you it's just because she doesn't want others to stress her out about marriage, vows... she just wants to live the present
but that doesn't mean that she doesn't wanna share you with her closest friends though! And she's going to... but she keeps forgetting.
so basically you, maki and nobara are having a girl's day out and some creep tries hitting on ya...yk what's gonna happen.
"What do you guys want?" Maki asked you while you guys were lining up for the crepe shop. "I think... strawberry?" "Ohhh I want a blueberry one!" "Okay, I'll line up. You guys can go sit on a bench and rest." "You and Nobara walk to the bench under the tree, chatting excitedly while Maki told the cashier your order. All of a sudden, Nobara stopped talking and narrowed her eyes as a young man walked over. "He-Hello miss?" He asked timidly after tapping your shoulder. "Uh, yeah?" You give him a confused look. "Do I know you?" "N-No... I just wanted to ask for you nu-number...m-mommy...?" He squeaked, fiddling with his hands. At this point, you were beyond disgusted. "What the actual fuck?" You snap. "Get the-fuck-away from me!" "I-I like being degraded..." He whimpers as you push him away from you. "C-Can I get your number...? Promise I'll call you mommy..." "I don't-" "SHHHKKK." A long blade was dug in the bark of the tree behind the man, with only a millimeter to spare. "H-Huh?!" His voice's an octave higher. "Don't you ever touch my girlfriend ever again, scum." Maki growled as she came back with two crepes in her hands. "I-I-I won't! I swear I won't-I'll-I'll never-" "Shut up, little shit." Maki grumbled as she put her hand in yours, the man stumbling away and crying at the same time. "You okay?" Maki asked you with a concerned look. You giggled in response and held her hand tighter. "Love ya."

#I simply think the fandom reaction would be hysterical if he like. went gentle into that good night or whatever
TRUE but also. It seems to me that John Lockedtomb is the very picture of "I will not go gentle into this good night I am going to be a huge bitch about it"
(Also of "Rage against the dying of the light". but that's less funny)
ALSO ALSO I'm not sure if by "go gentle into this good night" you meant "die" or "go away to live a quiet life on whatever planet is an option" but I can't help but be reminded of the Rocky Horror production I saw years ago where I swear Riffraff gunned down Frank while he was still singing "I'm going home". (sth sth Ulysses the First with a steel chair)
OK YEAH, EJG isn't "going gentle" anywhere. I definitely meant it as, I don't think he's in for any kind of Righteous Retribution from any of the 'Good' characters, or anything as clear-cut as that.
I think there's a very very solid chance John will die by the end of the series, but I don't think it will be framed as just or positive or anything along those lines. This is the guy who became a wrathful god in the pursuit of vengeance! If there's any moral lesson we get in TLT, is that revenge gets you nowhere. Sorry @ all the people thinking John is gonna get his just desserts and the world will be better off for it: it's not that kind of story.
TO ME, John will probably die, but it'd be HIS choice, and framed as something that's at least somewhat positive for him; I think he badly wants to stop existing and just let go. Or maybe he'll get something extremely fucking weird, like he becomes the moon to Alecto's earth or whatever. I think he and Alecto are too deeply intrinsically intertwined to be separated, but they won't exist in their current forms by the end of the series.
However. There's that one interview Taz gave where she said that TLT is full of horrible queers and some of them walk away scott-free even after doing horrible things. And I so so want that badly to be about John. I don't even think it'd be HIS ideal happy ending, that man longs for death. But it'd be MY ideal happy ending just because the fandom reaction in certain circles would fuel me for years

kid milli x yanghongwon x jjangyou x dnopf x ???
ok lets go. first about my day, if you don't wanna know you can scroll down :D
so i had to book my train ticket for a train at 6:30 am bc they announced the concert super late and everything was expensive already. i cried abt it to friends for days bc i never leave the house this early, but then as i started to travel there were commuters everywhere just doing their regular thing. and like it's not that big of a deal xD
i arrived in paris at 10 am, successfully queued in the right queue to obtain my metro tickets, did so and successfully took the metro to the neighborhood of the concert (last time i took the metro alone i couldn't find the way out and when i finally got out i had to walk super far anyway and the ride wasn't worth it :D).
i dropped my bag and thought i could have breakfast somewhere but nothing seemed inviting and i had eaten some breadbuns on the train and wasn't hungry so whatevs. went to a park and walked around, it was nice. so many ppl working out here! decided i should eat sth for lunch but was overwhelmed with finding a restaurant that offered veggie food with good ratings and close by and is open and is affordable. also i learned i'm really not confident to go to restaurants or even cafés alone. so i got some prepackaged food at a supermarket but it was meh :D walked past the venue and there were a few people waiting at 2 pm. got bubble tea i love that stuff. then there was nothing more to do and i didn't wanna use up my energy so i went to the place where i'm staying and read a book. ate the rest of the lunch.
went to the venue! i thought, but it turned out i walked into the wrong entrance into the wrong event. i was already confused about the other people xD
then i found the right entrance and was confused again bc there was no queue at all. general admission was at 7:30 and it was like 7:32. there were 2 guys entering at the same time as me and one said to the other (in english) "yeah i played here 4 years ago" and i didn't think anything about it.
i got in and the club was SO SMALL!! even though i hadn't queued i got a good spot to see. after a short time, the dj, dnopf, started. and it turned out he was the guy from the entrance!! i felt sry for not recognizing him. he played only khh and krnb and i cannot explain how much i loved that. that's my dream like. having someone who knows khh really well rec khh to me? there were songs i didn't know but sounded good. a lot of jay park and coogie. a lot of aomg/h1ghr but no ambition or daytona at all. dnopf's tshirt said
I ❤️ PARIS
hilton
i thought that was funny.
then jjangyou started right away (no waiting times, it was awesome). i'm not really into his music but wow he can make the party go crazy like himself. he even walked around in the crowd and was really close to where i was! he said he was sick and had a cold so we should cheer more to give him energy. poor guy, i felt bad ':D but this was a great performance, he was the most energetic artist by far.
then hongwon came on aaaah! he played 2 old songs and then only unreleased songs, 1 or so of which i didn't know. he introduced himself as "young b yanghongwon" and said when he returns to korea he will release an ep. (it has to he noted he's promised albums often so it's not really reliable but i'll still be hoping every time :D). slowmo is the album's name. his performance was wonderful ofc, he did all the raps properly as we know of him <3 idk what to say u know he's my fav artist rn it's just yeah.
and then kid milli. his show was also great of course! he's very professional, with carefully chosen song order etc so you know it will definitely be good. he showered the crowd in compliments (a bit cheesy for me but whatever :D). i felt bad abt knowing so few of his songs. he wore a hat (beanie style) and hoodie for the whole show idk how he didn't melt but he stayed strong :D
during kid milli's performance, suddenly hwimin jumped on stage for 1 second, yes you read right and i didn't see wrong bc kid milli confirmed it :D he said "do you like hwimin? we brought a representative for area, it's gemini!" so gemini came out and performed 3 songs and the crowd went crazy for him. i don't like him thaat much so i was a bit ?? but i guess it was the surprise effect, he said he'll be back next time with his own tour. parisians are lucky that so many khh ppl (esp former fa members and area members) seem to love paris so much, i don't see this for any other place except maybe japan.
after that, kid milli performed some songs with less action and then at the end as an encore some songs with jjangyou and hongwon together. they performed indigo last, with good guy kid milli rapping all of justhis' part <3
the show ended around 10:15? maybe. kid milli left the stage early but jjangyou and hongwon stayed around for a long time, gave signatures and talked to fans from the stage. that was so nice!
when i got out, it was still a little bright outside. not where i live! this was surprising but it's almost the longest day of the year after all. the neighborhood was still full of people enjoying the evening and sunset, good mood.
i was gonna post photos but will do that separately. tumblr app is broken and uploads different photos or replaces my uploads with different photos from my phone no thx
good night!! 💕💖💕

ok so yeahh let's continue.
So, one day I asked him for his Instagram password and he gave me. His name is pavan tho. So, like I insisted him to give me his password and yes he gave me and in return I gave him my password. I have nothing to hide so I gave. While looking at his dm, a text came from a girl she was the girl he broke up with, she texted,'' haan?? aagyi m ab bolo''. When I opened the chat there was literally nothing but just that last text. (like puri chat khali and ye ky h?)
I was like who is she?? and why is she texting you?? and why is she saying like this??
He said, well tbh I don't wanna hide anything so she was sending me her nudes and we had a sex chat. I was like oh okk- nvm. And didn't talked to him he did everything to convience me so finally I agreed.
So we were talking about that he said, '' you won't believe but I actually have had sex with a hoe''. My reaction was so shocked and idk what i was feeling. He said that was my past let it be naa trust me i won't do anything again like this.
So, after that during July things were wrong with me and my parents took away my mobile phone. I was like okay so I use to talk to him at night and early morning like 3-4:30 in the morning I use to wake up so early and he use talk for hours. We both have to wait so long to talk to each other. Later on I saw, he was losing interest with me may be because of lack of conversation.
Months were passing.. julyy... August... September....
And here it comes, one day he texted me,'' mujhse itna attach mt ho mujhe waise bhi e relationship ni chahiye''. I was all numb and replied,"ok".
And BLOCKED him*
The other day I shamelessly texted him like a 10 y/o immature child who has lost his favourite toy.
"Why are you doing this?? YK i can't live without you, you have became my habit and i can't even think living without you, if you had to do this then first point per he mujhe apne aap se itna attached ni karna tha. He started pointing at my flaws and made me feel that it's all my fault.
Days passed but ofc i can't even forget him, everyday all I hoped was just one text from him, later i saw him matching pfp with an e girl.
I was like ok-
I literally tried every possible way to bring him back and yeah one day he came back but things Weren't the same i was constantly trying to fix things and he was constantly trying to ruin it all.
And here it comes he left again. ik I was so stupid but I was(am) so in love with him.
Now, this time when he left I heard it from some of his friends that he has a real life gf and he's busy so i just stopped doing everything (trying to being him back in my life)
on 31 dec 2022,
he texted me again, I tried my best to not to fall again (being a sigma female chad) but somehow I again fallen for him and confessed what I feel. He said he was sorry for what he did leaving me for other girls. And said he won't hurt me or leave me ever again.
on 1 Jan 2023,
at night we talked for hours after so long.
Tumblr media
omg take me back to 1st January lol
So, things were basically going right he told me about his exes how toxic they were (less toxic than him tho) but I was happy that he is back finally and I'll hold him a little tighter and not let him go away but things don't go as we want.
Jitna I tried to hold him,
utna he was trying to leave.
so, i stopped doing that. One day i.e, 11 Jan we had a little fight and that's when we parted away.
he said-
Tumblr media
So, this was now about my self respect and I said aggressively,'' I'll never ever text you again, mark my fucking words ''.
I actually did it, omg i was so proud of myself.
I rid myself of toxicity and everything, now I'm healing but actually happy tho. I won't let him ruin things again. Now the thing is that the girl who use to gave him nudes was his gf and he never broke up with her. Like how can people be so selfish???
But deep down I still have a soft corner for him idk why may be because I saw a soft side of him that nobody saw even if that was fake-
We did so many stupid things together omg i swear.
IDC but I'm done with him.
(he never asked me for nudes or sex chat) the good thing about him. We weren't made for each other, just for a small part that left a huge mark on my life.
His birthday is on 27 Feb and i really wanna wish him but I want to stick on my words. (advice do)

Hi! Wanna add onto this if thats ok! There's a reason why there are laws and rules that tell minors not to interact with this content, and while yes you don't become someone else the second you turn 18 there's still a difference. People develop differently and yeah maybe you're an adulty 17 year old, but there are also 17 year olds that aren't like that. What I'm trying to get at is these laws and rules and friendly requests (mdni) are there to keep you save and not to exclude you just to exclude you. Yes, reading something might not do any harm, but generally letting you into spaces that are full if adults is dangerous. There are sadly some people with malicous intent in spaces like that and it is unsafe for everyone but ESPECIALLY minors that tend to not understand the depth of some things and more. I'm going into too much detail, and I want to clarify that I don't mean Mei's blog as sth "unsafe", this is in general about 18+ spaces. Stay safe
yes !! all of this !! people age differently, 18 is a general safe spot that has been determined for everyone's safety. also, if we're bargaining like that, like 'well i'm almost 18,' it leads to a very slippery slope that ends up in serious age gaps. it usually goes something like this: "oh sure, you're only a few days from 18. that's cool. how about a week? that's not too bad. a month? i mean it's basically the same. oh you're actually 16? you can operate a car, you can't operate your own body? i mean, it's not like you're 12 or anything. oh you are 12? well, you're closer to 18 than you are to 1."
do you see what i mean? that's how people get groomed. people who want to take advantage of you will always try to rationalize it, you cannot let yourself believe any exceptions. 18 is the law, 18 keeps you safe.

When Gackt is being a child I'm dying I can't deal xD. He's so dumbfounded by the fact there are so many people who are virgins in their 20s and I just...I can't help but laugh. I sincerely want sb to tell him "ok dude, there is sth you must know" and explain to him what an asexual is in front of a camera. Like, I have to see that reaction. He will start the adjectives obviously, like are you crazy, how is that normal etc, but I will be living. And I am asexual btw, so I find it extra amusing xD.
All jokes aside though, I believe this happens for a plethora of reasons, unrelated to sexuality. Being into a relationship is quite hard if you are working many hours, like they do in Japan, there is also the child factor, many people don't want kids for various reasons so they don't find a reason why they should be in relationship (my 1st Japanese teacher was like that, we were talking about cultures and relationship standards and when I told her I don't want kids she was like well that's fine you don't have to have them, but when I said that I still would like to be in a relationship, she was like "wait why would you want to be in one if you don't want kids". It appears the idea of love and companionship isn't everyone's cup of tea so *shrugs*), and I think it's also stress. With social media showing us all those people in their "edited" selves people will inevitably feel they are not good enough for a relationship and avoid it. Of course, you don't need a relationship to have sex, that's another thing. But yeah there are many reasons.
Also there are 2 things I would like to mention to him like a) you are a man, so having sex casually is way easier for you than it is for a woman (and yes i know some women don't find it as hard as me, but yeah just because you are brave doesn't mean we all are) and b) you are hot. Cause let's be real in order to have sex you have to be attracted to the other person and well, speaking from the perspective of myself and a few other average looking people's I've met, finding someone we like and have them like us back is close to impossible. Like, I've had about 5 guys approach me for such stuff in my 29 years of age and none of them was my type. The guys who are my type don't even perceive me as an option. So yeah, I'd rather not have sex than do it with sb I don't like just to say I had an orgasm. This reality is hard to understand for a guy this hot, I'm sorry. Cause yeah his personality is one tough to like, but when you go for one night stands you couldn't care less about sb's personality. It's that moment only. A couple drinks, some fun talk and bang boom bye.

Yeah, but don't we need to find out who exactly that is to kick their ass? So who do we blame? 🤔😅
Oh, nonono, I meant CS (just like Karamel) gets compared to Rapunzel and Flynn a lot 🙈🙈 But yes, HAPPY EVER AFTER ACHIEVED💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻😍😂
Hmm, dunno, still sounds boring😅🙈
Ohh, I forgot about that Pirate/Marine thing😳🤦🏻‍♀️😂 
Eh, well, I read the tale in two fairy tale books I used to have, but I was mostly thinking of this version of it: https://youtu.be/ySiVYS9TKJQ (Funnily enough, the girl is blonde and the boy dark-haired, too, just like mini-Karamel😂) But oh, oh, twist: Imagine Karamel in OuaT as these two childhood friends but instead of getting him back right away, Kara spends years looking for him and a way to save him. And imagine the mirror is actually made of the Hobgoblin's soul so the one who's heart is pierced kinda becomes the Hobgoblin, but Kara doesn't know that so she searches for a way to defeat the SnowQueen and Hobgoblin and get Mon back, but when she finally finds them with the help of CS and co, she finds out the "Hobgoblin" she had been chasing after and plotting to murder was Mon-El all along and that the original was just an evil entity created by Rhea for the specific purpose of corrupting Mon🤔🤔)
Wait, what?? There was a fic?!?😱😱😍😍😍
Oh, right, sorry, let me explain: A Stoneburn is basically what I've taken to calling LW's PiaD!Karamel, cause a slowburn isn't slow enough and a slugburn is still too fast, SO, evoila, Stoneburn, cause it only ever moves forward when Eve decides to give it a good kick😉😂🤷🏻‍♀️🙈
2. I think it's an awesome idea!😍 No way would hotheaded, stubborn Kara be all demure, so It's perfect she's more "modern"😍😁 And Mon being intrigued by that wouldn't be surprising at all😍😍
3. Oh god, now you're having me fear for Kara's safety 😳😳🙈🙈 Before this sounded like a romcom or sth, now you make it sound like a semi-thriller😰😍🙈
🤷🏻‍♀️
Hmm🤔 Okay, well, I might try to rewatch it sometime 🤔🤷🏻‍♀️
The Lion King is THE BEST! And Melissa is absolutely brilliant and wise for being a fan of it😍😍😍😍😍🙈 
Yup, would be a real mindfuck 😂😅 Not really sure how exactly that could turn out, it was just a first though🤷🏻‍♀️😅🙈 (Plus, I should finish and write the other stuff before even contemplating trying to write a complex mess like this😅)
Haha, okidoki, will try, you stay safe and happy, too!😊
XXXX
I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack.
Nah, let's just kick random people's asses. For sure they deserve it anyway.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh, ok, that makes more logic.
...you seriosuly have a little shittier memory than me, awww.
Ooooh, ok, actually I dug a little and it seems in the oroginal version of Andersen's tale, they were friends. Meaning, I have seen/read some scewed version or confused it with something else. Mea culpa.
That's... cruel, my friend ==' but I guess it would be more cruel, if she had killed him and then him coming back to his true self. Dying in her arms etc. Don't mind me xD
Yes there was with a few chaps and there were really dark themes there (do you want to know...?). But not updated for years, so RIP.
Well... it fits them perfectly, I guess.
Eheheheheh, the beauty with romances is that you can always make it darker. And yes, you should fear for her safety, lol. Raw romances are just too... boring?
She absolutely is and needs more recognition. Hollywood is seriolsy sleeping on heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer.
You can write both xD Why do you think I have stupid lil things started like A definite and then Night Of The Hunter? Because writing a messy, dark thingy is too much for my poor cheesy brain, that's why I need a distraction. See? You can do it!/
Anyway, you can call me Kat. How should I call you, if I may ask? Because for sure sweet anon doesn't fit :P (more like angsty, lol).
Anyway, hope you had a nice weekend and everything.

Ok ok, I'm the one who wrote about Magnus' side of the story. Let me say first, I decided I really like you cause I can see now that your opinions are really unbiased. I'm sorry I assumed at first. And I'm highlighting my writing with red whenever I'm talking to you. And it's black when I'm answering the other anons! But back to the matter in hand, First to this: Sorry, but can you quote or tell me the page of the book, in which Magnus complains about not being introduced to Alec's family? Cause I can't really remember. If there really is a scene that I've forgotten, please let me know. If you're talking about the scenes where Alec saved Magnus, and after hearing that Magnus loved him told him he would introduce him to his family, let me remind you again that all Magnus was saying was that he was tired of Alec being in love with Jace and never understanding Magnus loved him. Introducing to the family was totally Alec's idea, and yes it was to impress Magnus by doing sth bold, but the point stands, Magnus didn't ASK FOR IT. If it's non of the above, and you made it up, please don't reply me again. I don't like to discuss matters with biased people. I adore Malec but I never defend them without facts and recites. And I prefer not to speak to Alec or Magnus biased haters. And honestly, I don't give a shit about CC, I don't like her, I don't dislike her. I just love Malec. If I loved CC so much I wouldn't be here. Really.
Answer to this: Well, I'm not sure you actually read my whole message, cause there, I actually quoted parts of the books that showed my point in thinking why Magnus' silent treatment was because of him being upset about Alec (seemingly) being in love with Jace and denying his feelings for him. But anyways, if you just hate Magnus and don't want to see reasons (or even give reasons for why you think like this) then by all means, it's a free land.
Answer to this: Oh yeah? TBC? Maybe you want to show me? And not just say a whole fucking book shows your statement? And also, ok, I get it that it's hard to understand immortals, but the thing is, you're not really the best judger when you don't understand sth. I'm not claiming I am, or that I understand them completely. But one thing is obvious. Magnus stopped aging, physically AND mentally, at 18_20. All the wisdom he shows, is because of learning from experiences. But what people forget is that he basically stopped aging when he was a teenager (I'm not sure 18_20 is considered teenager, but it's still pretty young) and you can obviously see his decisions, despite all the wisdom he has, are really more teenager-y than any other warlock (like Ragnor, Catarina, Tessa, Malcolm) who all had stopped aging at older ages. (Tessa was young too, but still older than Magnus, and Catarina and Ragnor had been above 30 for sure) So, believe it or not, he can't help acting like a teenager some time. And it has nothing to do with being experienced. Let me tell you an example, I started playing soccer when I was 5, and my father started it at uni. I'm 19 now, and I've attended about a hundreds of different formal and informal games, and in this field I have even more experience than him. But the difference is, my father's playing are rarely affected by his feelings and private life, I've seen him getting into a fight with my mother and still planning very well. But I need my FULL focus and mind on my games in order to be my best. I once failed an exam and then fucked up my next game because I was upset about it. Its not always about experience. I know the atmosphere of the fields with my soul but I just can't put my emotions away completely. But my father can. And it's partly because his older than me and far more better at putting his emotions eside. My point is, Magnus may be experienced, yes but he also have the anatomy and mind of a 18_20 year old boy. I'm not justifying his actions. I'm just saying, you people expecting him to ALWAYS act wisely is just... I don't know what to say. You don't even seem like you're trying to understand him. Or the immortals.
And this: Ok it's not his place, good, now I know if I ever feel my partner doesn't love me, I have no right to be upset or ask him to at least tell me he's not in love with a blondie. Thanks for the clarification bud.
And if by pressuring you mean pressuring him to come out then sorry pal. I wrote a whole longass message saying I don't believe he pushed Alec to come out. If you can show me evidence, and by that I mean quoting Magnus, or showing somewhere he pushed Alec to come out, then please do. If not and you only hate Magnus, or Malec, then well I don't care. Honestly. Just don't bother yourself replying me please. I hate nothing more than to argue with someone who is biased. So please if you are spare me the pain. Thank you!! Also, I completely agree with you, his silent treatment was not ok at all. It's another thing that shows how young he was when he stopped aging. He surely acts like a teenager at times. Also, as I said again I'm not defending CC so I don't really care about how she's writing her other stories so, yeah, I can comment on them. Sorry.
And at last this: So I'm once again asking you to tell me which part of the story exactly comes as Magnus being manipulative to you. Its simple to accuse. You're just saying Magnus' kink is to have a teenage boyfriend, ok let me remind you sth. Lots of his lovers were above 25_30. Woolsey, even Camille, Imasu, Etta, Hypatia,... And He stayed with Etta till she was old. He's also married to Alec Lightwood who, surely is not a teenager anymore. If it was simply a kink, he would get tired of all of them. Also, seriously, your opinion is so biased I don't even know why you bother. You can just simply come here and write I HATE MAGNUS BANE. And we all get the point pall. Ok so I guess my answers are over. But I wanted to tell you sth. You know, I really think if CC had written TBC before TMI 1_3 and TRSOM before TMI 4_6 things wouldn't be this fucked up. Like, one of the things I really hate is how their characters are so different in both of those books in comparison to TMI. I read TRSOM and I just couldn't understand what happened that Alec suddenly acted like that, or Magnus suddenly become even worse at communicating. Also, I wanted to tell you sth else, since I've seen this being discussed a lot. But before that I want to tell other people, please, don't reply me if you can't put aside you biased, and are not willing to see things from a different light. Please just tell me your opinions if you have reasons and are not just saying: no Magnus is so manipulative blah blah blah. I've already seen them, thank you. So I was saying, have you ever thought that there was another imbalanced factor in Malec relationship, apart from dating experience, and it was their races? I mean, Magnus was a downworlder and Alec was a shadowhunter who could kill him without any consequences. We know how much bigoted their society was at the time, and yes I would never think Alec WOULD use that power, but the thing is, if you remember, almost every downworlder (except Magnus himself maybe, at least most of the times) did. We see in TRSOM that Catarina tells Magnus :"this one can get you killed." Or that Raphael tells Alec: "don't hurt him." And then clarifies: "I meant don't kill him." Even Hypatia and Ragnor warn Magnus. Even Shinyun. So it clearly wasn't an unimportant factor. Again I'M NOT SAYING ALEC WOULD EVER DO THAT. PLEASE DON'T COME AND TELL ME HE WOULDN'T, PEOPLE. I ALREADY KNOW IT. I'm just pointing out another factor nobody seems to consider. So yeah, I think both of them were vulnerable in their relationship in different ways. But well I mean they're happily married now so these are all solved probably. I just wish they didn't happen off page.
Hello! Sorry for taking a bit longer to answer.
I checked the quote and it is:
“Of course not. You never looked at it in any way.” Magnus’s cat eyes shone with anger. “I’m seven hundred years old, Alexander. I know when something isn’t going to work. You won’t even admit I exist to your parents.”
Alec stared at him. “I thought you were three hundred! You’re seven hundred years old?”
“Well,” Magnus amended, “eight hundred. But I don’t look it. Anyway, you’re missing the point. The point is—”
This was from an e-book version. In my 2015 edition of the book it says:
“Of course not. You never looked at it any way.” Magnus’s cat eyes shone with anger. “I’m four hundred years old, Alexander. I know when something isn’t going to work. You won’t even admit I exist to your parents.”
“Alec stared at him. “I thought you were three hundred! You’re seven hundred years old?”
“Well,” Magnus amended, “five hundred. But I don’t look it. Anyway, you’re missing the point. The point is—”
Which as a side-note is interesting that Magnus’ age was changed in a later edition. Anyway, Magnus is displeased that Alec won’t admit their relationship even to his parents. The implication is that he’d want that, though yes, it was Alec who talked about introducing Magnus to them if they survived the fight with demons. In retrospect, it’s a lot for Magnus to want Alec admit to their relationship to Maryse and Robert considering Magnus’ history with them from the time they were members of the Circle.
It’s unclear to me whether the reasons for Magnus’ silent treatment of Alec were because of Alec’s feelings for Jace or whether it was for him not acknowledging their relationship or both, because the narrative doesn’t handle these issues. I’m inclined towards the both because here Magnus does point out Alec not admitting to their relationship but previous to this he tells Alec that the reason he hasn’t called him back is: “I’m tired of you only wanting me around when you need something. I’m tired of watching you be in love with someone else—someone, incidentally, who will never love you back. Not the way I do.”
Here I want to point out once again the magic word, communication.
I’m just commenting along here, but teenage years are 13-19 so 20-year-old wouldn’t be considered a teenager anymore, though it’s important to note that emotional maturity and maturity in general don’t always correspond to any specific age. There is also the issue that though Magnus looks young he still has that experience, that he has learned through experience, accumulated wisdom and knowledge that Alec couldn’t possibly have at that time because Alec simply was incredibly inexperienced.
It’s fair to note that not everyone, despite their age and wisdom, make always the right choices or do the right things. The expectations for Magnus are higher because of that experience and knowledge, and because of that experience and knowledge, the premise to their relationship is unbalanced. Later on these issues keep accumulating because the writing does not sort them out honestly.
About the continuity issues, I agree big time. Because of course then things would’ve progressed chronologically instead of going back in time to fill some blanks. Of course, there is the things that Clary and Jace hogged all the pages for themselves and Magnus and Alec’s relationship was most of the time somewhere in the background.
And no, I haven’t actually considered that. Downworlders, especially at the beginning of their relationship, didn’t really have much trust for the Nephilim. Magnus’ friends being concerned for him is completely reasonable. And it’s probably because we know Alec wouldn’t ever do that that this perspective is less noted and harder to take into consideration because it isn’t probable.
But well I mean they're happily married now so these are all solved probably. I just wish they didn't happen off page.
I whole-heartedly agree that we should’ve seen the resolve on page, to have them address all and everything openly and honestly. Because it weren’t shown, ever discussed, probably ever written, it is personally difficult for me to see everything they now are as well-earned when the narrative did pretty much brush these problems aside.

I'm back darling~ this time I'd love sth for Cassie & her female bestie 😁 bc the xmas is near so Imma give u these prompts: 'I’m a grown adult. I don’t want to take a picture with Santa Claus', 'Hey, want to help me get my parents off my ass about not having a date?'. Have a good day!
Had a ton of fun with this one, hope you enjoy!!!
Cassie Cage x F! Reader
Meeting the parents- I mean, meeting Santa.
----
It was a cold, quiet morning in your apartment. You were enjoying a warm cup of coffee in the early hours, a cheezy hallmark move playing on your TV as you try to work yourself into the holiday spirit. It had been a long year. Your phone dings once, but you ignore it, too focused on who was going to marry Santa. When it kept going off you finally checked it with a sigh.
Cassie-lassy
Hey
Hey, can I ask a favor?
Stop watching Christmas movies and answer me
Cassie was your best friend, but you weren't sure if you liked where this was going.
How did you even know that?
Anyway, whats up?
My parents are throwing a Christmas party this week and are hounding my ass about a date.
And?
Do u think u could pretend to be my gf, just for a day? Just to get them to leave me alone.
You almost choked on your coffee when you read the text. Damn, hallmark movie coming true? Your heart fluttered a bit. Cassie was your best friend. You didn't have feelings for her! That was ridiculous. All she needed was a... friend-to-friend favor. Plus, her dad was super rich, they were totally going to have good food.
Sure, when?
Uh, today good?
The lack of planning was exactly what you should've expected from Cassie. You laughed and drug your hands across your face, she was so lucky that you had the day off.
Bleh, ok. Ur dad better have some good food.
U bet ur ass! Pick u up at 6.
You laughed, and slowly picked yourself off the couch. You hoped that you still had an ugly sweater somewhere in your closet.
The time flew by unfortunately fast. You were rushing to gather your things as Cassie at outside in her 1965 red stingray corvette, (with a mako body) you loved that car so much. You couldn't help but geek out everytime you see it, but alas, there was definitely no time for that today. You frantically locked your apartment as you ran down the steps.
"Sorry I'm late!" Cassie laughed as you got in the car, and that awful flutter feeling returned. Oh no. This is not happening.
"Its chill, I doubt Dad will care if we're late to his party anyway." Your eye twitched, smile still wide on your face. You liked to be on time no matter where you were going, and by the look she was giving you you knew that Cassie said that just to annoy you. You rolled your eyes at her as she took off, the rumble of the car's engine instantly calming you.
Damn. You had never seen a house that big. As Cassie rolled through the big gates you continued to gawk at the beautiful architecture.
"I knew your dad was rich but, seeing how rich he is... is..."
"I know right? He moves into a new house almost every 6 months almost. Each one is bigger then the last one." You felt light headed just imagining how it must feel to have so much money. By the time Cassie parked and the two of you walked to the big doors, you could hear people loud and clear inside the house. This was way different then the tiny little Christmas reunions you were used too.
"I might throw an arm around you and call you nicknames a bit to make it seem legit, are you ok with that? I'm already asking a lot by getting you to come with me in the first place, the last thing I want is for you to be uncomfortable." You laughed.
"Cassie it's fine, all that comes with the 'pretend girlfriend' package." She sighs in relief, knocking on the door.
"Just making sure."
The door opens after a few moments, Cassie's mother answering the door, delighted at the sight.
"Cassie you made it just in time! Your dad just got his Ninja Santa costume out of storage. You should- oh, who is this?" You shyly waved, face flushing more from the situation than the cold. You were glad you were already blushing when Cassie links her fingers through your own.
"Mom, this is my girlfriend." Her mom's face lights up, but you would be lying if you said her obvious military posture and build didn't intimidate you. You introduced yourself and shook her hand with your free hand, making sure to shake with a firm grip.
"Its great to meet you. I was wondering when Cassie was going to bring someone home." Cassie sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose as you awkwardly laughed. Her mom, Sonya, invited the two of you in. Your jaw almost dropped at the inside of the house.
The house was incredibly decorated. Wreaths, lights, an army of elves on the shelves, everything you could think of that spoke Christmas. A giant buffet on the right side of the room and a giant tree in the center of it all.
"Holy shit Cas," you wispered, she giggled squeezing your hand.
"I know right. They overdo it every year."
The rest party was amazing. You met many of Cassie's friends and family friends from the special forces. Kids were livey and running around the place. Even though the mansion and beautiful and intimidating, everything seemed to speak family to you. Every once in a while you would catch Cassie staring at you, but she would always wave you off, face flushing. It couldn't be an actual blush though, this was all an act, right?
"Ho ho ho, Ninja Butt-kicker Santa Claus has arrived!" A voice boomed from the center of the room. Adults laughed while children screamed with delight, booking it towards the gaint tree. Cassie sighed in embarrassment.
"I was beginning to wonder when dad would show up." You tried hard not to laugh when you dragged her to the middle of the room, catching a glimpse of her dad's "holiday spirit".
Kids hopped on his lap one by one, telling him what they want for Christmas, and (probably thanks to their parents,) each one was giving the wanted present and a fake ninja-star. You had thought every child was given a present and taken a picture, so surely he was going to "retire" for the night, right?
"Ho ho ho, Santa thinks that one, special little girl has yet to take a picture." He looked straight at Cassie and winked. She immediately recoiled.
"No. No no no. I'm a grown adult, I don't want to take a picture with Santa Claus." Everyone chuckled around the two of you. And Sonya walked over to push her into the center of the room with her dad, camera firm in her hands. Cassie sent an embarrassed look your way as she was forced to sit on Santa's lap.
"And what would you like for Christmas Cassie Cage?" Cassie looked like she wanted to melt away form her spot. Only answering because she had to.
"I don't want anything Da- Santa." Her Dad let out another Jolly, fake laugh.
"Sure you do! Santa knows everything, you know!" He hands her a small box, and winks at her.
"You know what Santa wants for Christmas? Grandkids." The crowd laughed, and your face immediately flushed a dark red, Cassie almost looking the same way. She covered her face as she hopped off her Dad's lap and speedwalked back to you without even opening the box.
The rest of the party went by so fast, and before you knew it, the two of you were walking back to her car in the cold.
"This was a ton of fun cas," She laughed, you wondered if she knew that you were still holding hands.
"Yeah, I'm glad you came with me. Sorry if my parents were a little overbearing." You shrugged, letting her know that it was fine. The silence after was unbearable. You wondered for a moment if you should ask her out. The party was nice, really nice, but it was honestly just because you were 'pretending' to be her girlfriend. You think she might've thought so too. You opened your mouth to speak, but she beat you to it.
"Hey, so, what if we made this whole... 'fake girlfriend' thing, a 'real girlfriend' thing?" You blushed, giving her hand a comforting squeeze.
"I think I'd like that." Her face lit up with a smile, squeezing your hand back. She stuck her hand in her pocket, and looked surprised for a moment, stopping in her tracks to pull out the box from earlier.
"I forgot about this thing."
"Mabye you should open it?" She let go off your hand to gingerly untie the bow, taking the lid off the box and tucking it underneath it. Her face flushed.
"It's mistletoe." Your face flushed in return. So thats what he ment. Cas started to nervously mumble something, closing the lid on the box, but you held a hand over hers before she put it away.
She instantly kissed back when you leaned in to complete the tradition. The gentle moonlight kiss becoming the only Christmas miracle you needed.
You were definitely living in a hallmark movie.

Got attagged by @grain-crain-drain . Thank you! It was a pretty interesting quiz! :D
I got: Clay Writer
“Please, take time for yourself, too. You work hard, so hard, and you follow your heart to the deepest caverns into the wildest mountains. Your heart got broken, but you took all its pieces and molded them into something brand new and beautiful. You’re a beautiful human being, and I’m really proud of you. Sometimes you fall, but every single time you get up, and it’s hard, but you go on, you build everything again. Life made you taste how bad it can be, but you decided to remain kind. It takes courage to be soft, in this would, and I really admire you. You’re the gentle writer, poetic words and agape love personified. Your stories have an angsty aftertaste, your words don’t hit the reader violently, but they caress their cheeks and whisper in their ears words that will leave them. In you there’s the strength of wild streams, and the patience mountains have. The world is lucky to have you.“
I attagggggggg ... @steamclouds ( there is no escaping ;)c ) and @titan-wolfdog ( go and tag some of your friends ;D )

There's at least five feet of snow here
Heyo, here is the submission for Day 18 of the Siegemas Event 2021! Erc-7 couldn't make it for personal reasons, so I'm taking over and I hope you enjoy the fic! I wish all of you good and calm holidays and hope you all have a good start into the next year! "We should go on vacation." Dominic burst out, his sparring partner stopped and looked at him in confusion.
"We have been together for one year, don't you think we should celebrate that? And I think we both need some time-off." He continued while still breathing heavily from the exertion.
"Oh, that sounds great! I really need some time to relax." Elias smiled brightly at that idea, already fantasizing about all the good food and sauna trips. His body was seemingly relaxing as he indulged in those thoughts.
"Then, vacation it is!"
"Yeah, but we still have to convince Harry to let us go, too." The shield bearer breathed out loudly through his nose, the other man placed both his hands on his hips and shook his head in disbelief.
"Hmmm, I will talk to him tomorrow."
Elias just cocked his eyebrow.
~*~
A few days later they were able to discuss their plans. It was Elias who was able to convince Harry in the end. Who knew what Dominic had said again...
Their plan was simple. They would drive from the airport in Munich with a rented car to the Alps, stay in a cabin in a holiday village for three days and get home the same way they came. Simple, easy, foolproof.
A few weeks later, the week before Christmas, they set out on their journey. Dominic pushed the car and they made their way to the Alpine holiday village in about two hours. They got their stuff into the little cabin and settled down for a bit, planning what they should be doing next. They still had a whole day ahead. Elias suggested going skiing, he said it would be fun. Until it wasn't. Dominic spent more time lying in the snow than actually skiing and Elias laughing his soul out didn't help either. In the end they managed to make it down one slope.
"God fucking damn it! I have enough, let's go home!" He rammed his ski sticks on the part that unlocks his shoes so violently that Elias thought he would break the parts. 
"But we haven't even spent two hours here and paid quite a sum for this day ticket, too."
"Listen, I really have enough, everything hurts and I am freezing. Please let us go home. I will even give you the money back for the card." The man sounded more desperate than anything else, no anger was there anymore, just exhaustion. Someone could feel sorry for this poor man. And Elias did, but seeing his boyfriend in this kind of state was hilarious to him. The soggy clothes that clearly showed how good he was at skiing. The pleading look. He just looked like a wet cat waiting to be let inside. A glorious picture he would have loved to take, but getting his phone out would be too obvious right now.
"Elias, please…" Dominic insisted, there was no motion from his boyfriend, except the big grin.
"Yeah, yeah, I will set you free from your misery." Elias winked at his love, got off his skis and made his way to the exit. Dom happily walked next to him. His stride was already his usual confident and cool self. Good, it would have been a bad thing if he would still have been sulking. Elias slung his arm around his boyfriend's shoulders and squeezed it, flashing him a bright smile. Still, the day couldn't be better.
Before they went back to their little cabin they went grocery shopping. They weren't so fond of just getting take-out because they wanted to cook together. And frankly, not many places offered take-out anyways. After they finally arrived at their "home" they set out to make themselves something good to eat. They made some simple pancakes, one more sugary than the other. In the end they were only able to roll onto the small couch to take a break and watch the fire in the fireplace that they had lit up upon arriving. Elias was sitting and scrolling through his phone while Dominic laid down as best as he could on his back. His boyfriend's thigh served as his pillow and soon he fell asleep. The sounds of the cracking wood and the slow and calm breathing helped to ease any tension he had. Soon Elias began to caress his lover's hair absentmindedly. 
No one would have ever thought that this grumpy and closedoff man would ever be together with the social butterfly. It warmed Elias' heart even more than any fire ever could when he just thought about how much Dominic trusted him to fall asleep not just next to him, but having his head on his thigh while Elias caressed his hair. He couldn't be happier. This was all he ever wanted. Being together with the one he loved. In a safe place where they both could let their guard down. A place where it is just them and no one else. With a fond smile on his lips he drifted into sleep, the phone still in his one hand, the other still placed on his boyfriend's head.
Upon awakening Dominic realized that there was something warm placed on his forehead, he slowly opened one of his eyes to get a glimpse of what it could be. It was the hand of the person he adored the most. His stomach felt like butterflies were trapped inside it. The love he felt for this man was so incredible and faceted that he couldn't describe it entirely. All he knew was that it made him the happiest that he has ever been and that he would do anything possible, or even beyond his capabilities for this one person. Slowly he reached for the hand that was gently placed on his head into his own. He held it softly, moving it so that it was resting on his chest. Above his heart; fingers intertwining. There was only a soft snoring to be heard. The fire was out apparently.
After a while Elias awoke, too, and they decided to take a bath together. It was obvious that Dominic had more or less fallen down the mountain, judging by the bruises everywhere on his body. They both agreed they should go to bed, where they wouldn't be so crammed up. Before Dom fell asleep, he watched the little snowflakes fall from the sky. He hoped that it would snow on Christmas. He yawned and nestled closer to his boyfriend, who was already asleep, basically spooning him. 
~*~
Morning came way faster than anticipated. Groggily Elias looked around the room, his eyes squinted shut because of the brightness. They had forgotten to close the window shutters before going to sleep. Disgruntled, he turned on his other side to shield himself from the light. Maybe he could fall back to sleep, but Dominic was already stirring, his face already grimacing at the light that shone directly onto his face. With a groan the grumpy man turned to his other side, stretched and got out of bed. Elias could only hear his boyfriend walking into the bathroom. As he began to drift back to sleep, he could hear loud swearing. 
Loud steps approached the bedroom, the door was pushed open.
"Elias! There is no fucking water! Have we forgotten something at the check-in? We paid, didn't we? That was the right cabin, or am I losing my fucking mind?"
"Hmmm…" Elias only managed to answer, he was still too sleepdrunk to say anything. His mind began to push him to get up. His extremities were still stiff as he followed his boyfriend to the bathroom. And indeed, there was no running water. That was unusual. 
"I'll take a look at the fuse box, maybe we somehow overdid it with the bath yesterday?" Dominic said as he watched his boyfriend pressing the light switch. Nothing happened. Elias looked back, shrugged.
"Good idea, let's hope that we can find the reason for that." 
Dom turned around quickly and walked out of the door. 
"I think we have another problem. A bigger one." He said, as he stepped into the living room. Dom walked to the next best window and looked outside.

Thinking in the rain
Marius sat in the workshop fidgeting with his pen, while trying to focus on the blueprint in front of him. He tried to work on this project since the finale of the tournament where Eliza and Jaimini had their big fight. Even a rock could see that everyone was more on edge these days, than ever before. 
This fight tore apart the whole team Rainbow. Everyone was now subconsciously sorted into seperate teams, each of them supporting either Eliza or Jaimini. It was natural that discussions would be happening and some of them would grow into more heated ones. Gustave and Harry had more work than ever. 
For the most part Marius was able to get around the conflicts, but it made him lonely in the process. A precaution he wasn't willing to take, but necessary.
His frustration grew by the minute and there was no way of stopping it.
And that was how time has been for the past month. He never imagined that he could work uninterrupted all by himself in the workshop. At first it was refreshing to work focused on everything, but after a week he grew sick of it.
He missed Dominic dropping by to discuss one of his creations or to just have a chat. And now the prankster wasn't really hanging out as much as he used to. 
Monika was also more or less doing her stuff alone. Most of the evenings he would drop by her room and they would discuss her own gadget improvements or her new stories. This reminded him about the last time she read a snippet to him. It ended with a cliffhanger. How will the story proceed further? But now she wasn’t feeling up to writing more.
Now he realised how stressed Elias was lately. Always trying his best to keep the Germans together. Their breaks were always spent together to eat in the mess hall, but now everyone just dropped by, when they felt like it. It was tiring to see how much Elias worked against his team falling apart slowly. He would just like to know the words to console everybody and to get everyone to work with each other as they did before. But how could he do that, when he didn't know how to help himself?
Marius was frustrated, these thoughts were circling in his head all the time when he started to work on his Magpies or on any other side project. They kept him from being productive. And many of the usual suspects in the workshop realized that this man had his head more in the clouds.
When he figured that it was impossible to concentrate on his project anymore, he got up from his chair in the workshop and decided to go for a walk. See what the others have been up to. So he walked around the workshop to look at the projects of the ones who were there at the moment. Only Shuhrat and Mark were, both of them focused on their work and not caring about Marius taking a look at their stuff. 
Since he didn't want to disturb their concentration, he silently got out of the workshop. 
As he got outside, it was as if he was finally coming out of the water. The air in the workshop was so heavy of all the metallic stenches from furious welding and soldering and any other chemicals that were used during their creative processes. Now the engineer was greeted by the smells of nature. 
Body stiff from all sitting in the wrong position while tinkering, made it crack at any movement. In order to get his body into a better shape, he decided to take a small walk outside. Also he befriended the idea of skipping his workshop projects in the evening, because he didn't want to exhaust himself because of the upcoming squad training the next morning. He knew himself so well that he could anticipate that if it weren't for the training, he'd stay there to tinker into the night.
It was a relief for him to finally be out of the tight space in the workshop, allowing himself some time to breath and settle his mind. So, he briefly went inside again to get himself a chair and a cold drink for sitting outside. Surely he seemed to be at peace for an outsider, but it was quite the contrary for him. The thought of their practice tomorrow made him a bit anxious. Who knows what they would be fighting over again? People are stressed and there was no way he could see to stop those tensions. His best option was to lay low, was it?
____________
The next morning came faster than anticipated. Being outside for so long, mulling over everything and nothing left him quite exhausted the following day. 
Tiredly he moved his body to get his morning coffee and decided to not eat, since stressing himself with sports and having a full stomach didn’t sit well with him. Also the engineer felt a bit nauseous when he woke up. 
The German quarters were already deserted, so he figured they had gone to eat breakfast in the mess hall. But they obviously chose to not wake him. Or maybe they tried, but he was still in a deep slumber. Yeah, that sounded more likely.
Still, or already exhausted, he walked to the mess hall by himself. As he finally reached the mess hall, it was already quite empty. What time was it anyways? 
The clock said 9 am sharp. He better hurry and eat his breakfast. After he wolfed it down, he left with the last ones to go to the training exercise. They had a rough day ahead that included many exercises and mock missions.
______________
Fuck them honestly. FUCK. THEM. Marius threw his helmet to the ground in anger, right beneath the feet of his team. He was so sick of everyone. Apparently it was his fault. Sure. His ADSs were the only gadgets that were protecting him, Dominic and Alexandr, who were the only three being "alive" to begin with. And if it wouldn't have been for Shuhrat who was the only one left on his team. Then they made the mistake of staying in the same room. And then they lost. Death by Matryoshka. 
Rookie mistake. Apparently one of Marius' Magpies had been destroyed already, so there was no way in hell that they could have protected them all at that moment. But sure. It was all his fault…
Dominic and Alexandr were now arguing loudly about how and why they had failed against one single opponent. Meanwhile Marius calmed a bit down from his outburst and collected his helmet. It didn't mean that he wasn't angry anymore, but not in the mood to jump at everyone's throats at least.
Angry because of the accusations against him, he went out of the training area by himself. On his way back to the facilities, he made a stop and went outside for a bit. He hadn't realized that it was already this dark out. Sadly the stars were covered by thick clouds, preventing even the moonlight from shining through. Time flies when you are not having fun and work endlessly without any long pauses to even get a glimpse of boredom.
The exhausted engineer put his helmet lazily under his arm and just looked at the sky. 
It was raining. Nothing unusual for England. The droplets were running down his face, cooling down his temper even more. Easing all the tension that was built up inside him.
He allowed his thoughts to drift away. 
Why was he here? What led up to it?

Hi Gina
So it's morning in our country, just woke up but I really hope your inbox isn't too full by the time you wake up so that you can read this.
I
Had
The
Weirdest
Dream
Eveeeeeeerrrr!!!
Okay not that weird maybe but I literally dreamt up a fic😂😂😂
Like it was playing visually in my head.
Okay, so, it started with a background story. About how all of humanity used to be A/B/O. With A's and O's being more than betas. But then without like, any explanation, the A and O genes started receding and eventually became dormant. Like it was there, the scientists could see it and stuff when they conducted tests but it wasn't active. They chalked it up to evolution and that was that.
Years passed but something else happened.
So and this is where it gets weird, a virus breaks out. And for some reason, it's like super dangerous to anyone who's a carrier of the A/O gene. They start dying like flies.
So like investigations were being carried out coz, people were dying now. There was apparently an informer working with the investigators. And the agents found an organization called "the fade".
And the way they found this out is, the informer directed them to some abandoned lab. And when they went there, there were a few documents with scattered information about like, what the fade was and their mission.
So the fade was a group of like really smart and clever omegas and a few Alphas who were tired of certain aspects of their genetics. Heats, ruts and all that jazz. So essentially they wanted to like turn everyone into betas.
And they figured it out. They created a chemical that was completely safe, and could dissolve in water with no trace. And the chemical forced the A and O genes to stay Dormant. So it was distributed all over the world. And I mean everywhere and mixed in with the water systems.
The plan went smoothly and the fade was happy with their success. The genes were dormant. So this was around 1998 to like early 2000s.
Even the kids being born from A's and O's had dormant genes but the fade didn't disband just incase.
So twenty years later, there's reports of kids who didn't actually ingest the gene, the ones that were born dormant, let's call the second generation carriers, these kids some of their genes were activating.
This is when H and L came into the story. H was an A carrier and L was an O carrier. (sorry I still can't believe this was real.)
So the fade, decides to kidnap some SGCs to figure out what's happening. They can't figure it out and the leader of the fade is freaking out. So what does she do? Remember the virus?
She convinces the other fade members to like kill off all omega and Alpha gene carriers so that they can get rid of the gene. They created a virus that's harmless to betas, causes a slight flu and a headache at most but completely eviscerates A and O gene carriers
But they're carriers too so are they going to kill themselves? No. They have the kidnapped SGCs so they decide they'll use them as lab rats so that they can figure out a drug that will wipe out the gene without killing the carrier.
L and H are there but so is Ls sister. For some reason she was really pissed at L. Like she acted like he was the worst person alive but I don't know why. She was also best friends with Harry
So L, H and the sister (can't remember her name) watch while all their friends are murdered and permanently messed up coz of all the drugs they're testing on them. Ls sister was there with her husband and eventually he was chosen for tests.
Every time he came back from testing he'd look so sick and demoralized. Then one day he didn't come back. And they all knew what that meant.
Ls sister was devastated. And when L saw that. He didn't want it to be him coz he and H were getting close and obviously he didn't want to lose his sister.
So they ran away.
Okay this is where I know I was dreaming but I don't know if you've watched the Maze runner movies but it was exactly the same to the way they escaped in the second movie lol.
So they hide out in a forest. Coz obviously the fade lab isn't in the open. And Ls sister spends the whole night crying into Ls chest, even in her sleep coz she can't stop imagining how her husband must have died.
And H and L stay awake all night watching over her. Then H says sth weird. He tells L he can smell him. And L is like yeah no shit I'm muddy and sweaty and H is like no you smell like pinecones and L is like stop being silly we're in a fucking forests so then H says I can hear your heart beat and you smell really sad and so does your sister.
So then Lou finally realizes what's happening and says shit H, your gene's been activated...
And then I woke up 😩😩😩😩
Ugh Lemme tell you the effort I put into not waking up felt like I was actively forcing my heart not to beat 😭😭
I really tried and now I'll never know how it ends. Coz theres still that synthetic virus the fade let out and what if L or h or Ls sister gets it and what if the fade captures them or what if Ls gene activates, or doesn't.
Ugh.
Ok... this was an incredibly detailed dream. LOL! And yes! I totally thought that it sounded a bit like The Maze Runner in the beginning, too. It’s actually a great fic idea. If you’re not a writer, someone else should definitely write it!

heyyy feeling kinda bored being alone at home rn so i'm gonna drop some q's if that's ok with you haha
1. what's your ranking for catb albums?
2. fav catb performance?
3. top 3 fav lyrics from catb and inhaler?
4. top 3 bands you love other than catb & inhaler?
5. this one's kinda personal but i was wondering if you're studying music? or maybe doing sth related to music? cuz i kinda get the impression that you can sing well haha!
cheers and have a lovely day! x
Ahhhh I feel you anon. I still have one more day left of isolation so this is just as interesting for me as it is for you haha 😭
Okay so catb albums. The Balcony would be at number 1 however it gets 2nd place because it’s Billy and not Bondy. The Balance is my fave Catb album which is ironic because I used to hate it haha. And then in 3rd I’m gonna say The Ride only because I don’t tend to listen to it in full very often but also because it has Emily on it and Emily is my least fave catb song 💀💀
If I think about my fave catb performance too hard I won’t be able to decide so I’m just going to say straight off the bat TRNSMT 2019. I never usually find myself rewatching festival sets but that’s one that I could watch over and over and over again and fall in love with it more every time. The set list was perfect and they all looked so good! 👀
lyrics is so difficult man 😭 like I could straight up just say the entirety of Hourglass and Anything but that would be cheating
1. “She hates her work but loves to flirt, it’s a shame she don’t work with me”
2. “I left recording finishing the same hook I was singing when we come in from dinner“
3. “I’d rather go blind than let you down”
and for Inhaler
1. “It won’t always be like this”
2. “you’re not on your own”
3. “Darling I’m in love with you”
(kinda simple ones but they mean a lot to me 🙂)
Okay well other than catb and Inhaler I love all of Bondy’s old bands and his mates’ bands so like Detroit Social Club, Symphonic Pictures, Them Things, Jango Flash
But I bang on about that lot all the time so minus them, I’d say my three favourite bands would be...
The 1975 (had a massive 1975 phase a few years ago, not so much now but I still vibe with the music) 5 Seconds of Summer (seeing them live fingers crossed next year 😁) and i’m sorta getting more into Blossoms lately and they’re lovely lads so they’ve won my heart haha.
That’s so funny you say that because I am a music student yeah! I think I’ve only mentioned it a couple times on here but I absolutely love it. And omg anon you’re too nice cause singing is my area of expertise 🥺❤️ I definitely want a job in the music industry. I mean I wanna be a musician but I’ll be happy if I can work somewhere musicy for the time being while I get everything worked out haha. There was a brief period of time where I considered being a music teacher but I just don’t think it’s my thing 💀💀

Ok so like, so I know has gotten into Nirvana and idk if it's bc of Kurt Cobain's melancholy lyrics or what but it sure seems like they listen to the group's music a lot when they're feeling down... which seems to be affecting them and making them angry? Idk. At first I couldn't understand why they liked the group - just sounded like noise - until I realized the bluesy chord progressions are kinda catchy. But they play Lithium and some other songs ALL. THE. TIME. And I'm like can you find sth else to play on your instrument pls, sth happier... Like a whole Foo Fighters song
Yeah, I get that. When I was really into them I was young and edgy, and going through one of those phases all young teens do. I thought they sounded like shit at first, but for some inexplicable reason my little 13 year old brain became obsessed with all that screaming and the grungy sludgy riffs.
The grunge scene itself focuses a lot on more heavy and depressing topics, many of the big grunge legends were severe drug abusers and suffered from mental illnesses. So it's possible your friend really finds an outlet in their music, like a lot of people do. Kurt Cobain was a drug addict who suffered from a lot of trauma and depression -- he killed himself, after-all. A lot of the shit he felt got thrown into his music even if a lot of it is hard to understand or doesn't make sense. If you're genuinely concerned for your friends well being, it might be good to try to talk to them honestly, let them know you care about them and are there to support them, and that they aren't alone.
And if they're learning Nirvana songs on their instrument I don't think it's really totally fair to get upset at them for it. Many Nirvana songs are relatively easy to play on the guitar and other instruments, they're a good place to start at and practice makes perfect, you know? Seriously though, while depressing music can negatively affect you, I wouldn't worry about it too much in the long run. But maybe try linking them to some other lighter songs they might be interested in learning?
And I mean, the drummer from Nirvana, Dave Grohl, is the Foo Fighters frontman, so I can't imagine their songs are really a whole different scenes except maybe branching out more into some alternative and nu-metal type of stuff. I dunno honestly, I never got into the Foo Fighters.

yeah they should listen but just saying its not necessarily (& I'm sure not in the case of RCG) coming from a place of hate at all. its not even like is it worth upsetting ppl to do this joke,its that they don't even get the logic that it would upset ppl in that context. they think theyre making the gang look like fools for being racist and thinking wearing blackface is ok, that's it. the idea that wearing it as an actor in that context to make the point is also hurtful isnt immediately obvious
yeah but. just because they aren’t coming from a place of hate doesn’t mean that the offense committed and their resultant actions weren’t harmful? bc when rcg+ don’t own up to their mistakes or try to justify it or realize we have a point but still won’t say anything or try and quietly sweep it under the rug etc etc their choices have consequences? and you have “diehard” fans who’ll fucking start harassing and demeaning poc and allies who stand up for them? rcg+ run a tv show that reaches millions and sadly their choices as individuals and as a collective can have very real world consequences. they’re not some quirky little corner of the internet they have to have some fucking responsibility?? and its not like they’ve never realized they were wrong about stuff and apologized. they bent over backwards over their use of the r word. they climbed mountains to make things up to the lgbt community over mac’s retracted coming out plot. yet they’ve continued to say the n word as recently as s12 and we already know what happened in s14. its startling to realize that white people can be hurt by the r word and white people can experience homophobia but they don’t experience racism (at least not in america. or lbr anywhere fucking else). so its like. its starting to get suspicious that this is the one thing they are so pressed about. and like. lets say u wanna continue to argue that the r word stuff was sth they talked about regretting years after it happened n they fixed mac’s apology within the storyline and didn’t pop off w apologies even after the backlash had happened. i just gotta say this isn’t sth they can fix w a quirky ep about the gang deciding they won’t be racist anymore, this is something they gotta own up to and apologize for. the best time to do that was after they found out how much it hurt people. the second best time is right now, as soon as possible, please. 
like not to bring up big mouth re the bi/pan controversy esp since that was about lgbt issues and not race but they had the fucking guts to see that they fucked up and apologize and promise to make things right. like its real fucking easy to do that. and big mouth is arguably something just as safe as sunny (big mouth is popular n has been renewed for quite a few new seasons, sunny is sth fxx wants to keep doing), so, u can’t really invoke rcg+ being worried about their show’s survival or whatever the fuck. and if they are its still kinda fucking shitty to sacrifice poc! so. yeah. like if u have such a raging hard on for rcg+ and would like to continue to get off on that without guilt u can just go ahead instead of trying to defend them here, idk if ive said this before but genuinely rcg+ needs no fucking protection, neither does sunny, they’re fucking rich and they’re fucking fine
