#thank you for remembering us when you hit it big jade

[luveline]

grumpy!joel and sunshine!reader? like he is very gruff and short with people until his girl comes around and tess is like wow are you soft now?

tysm for ur request! disclaimer: I am not an expert in tlou I just think Joel is very fit and also scary ♥︎ tess and joel are roommates here (and also no hate on tess at all I tried to make her a realist rather than a pessimist but she may sound a little jaded) idk lol pls enjoy! fem!reader 

Joel's asleep when you come around. Tess is stirring her drink, small spoon bouncing against the sides of her mug with a metallic tap-tap-tap as your familiar knock raps the door. She doesn't bother yelling, just opens the door to let you in. 

"Hello," you say, though you wince when you spot Joel dozing on the couch. You drop your voice to a whisper. "Nice shiner, Tess." 

"Thanks." She steps aside to give you free reign, rolling her eyes when you toe off your shoes. 

You're not right in the head, in Tess' opinion. You're too soft for this life, and your continued survival feels like luck and nothing more. You know how she feels about you, and you know what she thinks: that to be vulnerable is to kill yourself. You don't feel the same. 

Joel's flat on his back. You push him against the cushions of the couch to make room, perching at his hip with a small sigh. He couldn't have been with Tess when she got hurt, his face clean of contusions. No speckled bruising, no scabbing cuts. 

You place your hand over the solid plane of his stomach and lean forward just a touch. You could kiss him. 

"Joel," you murmur, hand sliding to his waist. His jeans are rough under your palm. "Wake up. I have good news." 

He never wakes gently. His eyes scrunch, his lips tug down into a scowl. When he sees you, it takes a good long second for his agitation to fade into a more neutral expression. 

"Hey," you say, smiling. 

He doesn't smile back. "Where have you been?" he asks succinctly, voice rough with the lingering dregs of sleep. 

"Why should I tell you?"

He almost pushes you off of the couch as he sits up and swings his legs to the side. His shoes touch the floor, and of course he sleeps with his shoes on, he's ready for everything.

"Don't play games." 

You hum in delight at his dark tone and stand up before he can grab you, shivering at the feeling of his fingertips scratching your thighs. You backtrack through the room for your bag thrown haphazardly by the door. You pick it up, excited and scared at once, and scrabble to procure your promised 'good news'. 

"I wasn't far." 

"Your definition of far isn't one I trust," he says. 

"She's a big girl, Joel," Tess says, sipping her drink. She winces at the taste but isn't deterred. "She can take care of herself." 

And if you can't, who cares? You shouldn't be anybody else's problem, and to your credit you aren't. You take care of yourself. You take care of Joel, too, whenever you can, which is why you've brought him the book you found. 

"Here, handsome," you say, holding it out with little ceremony. 

Joel stands up to take it. He stares at the cover in silence. 

"It's a shame they can't include a snippet on every page," you lament. "Like when they used to put perfume samples straight on the paper. I don't know what half of those songs sound like. Which is weird, right? The biggest Billboard hits and I can't remember them." 

"And this is for…" 

"Your codes. Your radio codes?" Your beaming smile starts to shutter. Maybe it isn't useful after all.

Joel knows better than to ask what you want for it. You never ask for anything, ever. You give and you give and at first he'd thought you were stupid, just plain dumb. Generosity is a myth and everybody has their motives. He'd been suspicious of your angle, rejecting you, talking down on you, practically spitting at you to get lost. And you'd listened, for the most part, but then he'd see you in line after shifts for cards, around dark corners talking to dirty FEDRA officers, and you'd always impossibly feel his gaze and pin him with a smile. You've eroded his reluctance over time, and now you're here, sprightly and pretty in his too-big apartment filling every inch with light. 

He reaches across the gap and takes your hand. He squeezes, savouring the warmth of your smaller hand. You have delicate fingers compared to his, and they look smaller still enveloped in his grasp. 

"I'll make you something to eat," he says. 

You nod once, a pop of movement. "Thank you." 

You're not the one who should be saying it but you're the only one who's willing to. Thank you has become synonymous with I owe you. 

Tess lets her gaze flick between your two bodies, clearly startled. Joel drops your hand and it's too late, far too late, she's already gearing up to make fun. 

"Is this how it's gonna be now?" she asks. 

Joel huffs quietly. Tess talks with a brittle kind of love, the familiarity of knowing someone for a long time softening what would otherwise be ridicule. She thinks, without malice, that you and Joel are a bad idea.  

"Hasn't it been like this for a while?" you ask, turning to face her, your usual sunshine attitude worsened by Joel's affection. 

"You're fucking up my guy." 

"Don't get stiffed so often and you won't need a bodyguard," you say lightly. 

Joel snorts, tossing your catalogue of songs on the counter. He doesn't know if they have anything worth eating here, but he's gonna damn well try and find something. 

"You're soft," Tess says to Joel, quick and quipping as she dumps what's left of her drink into the sink. "I'm going out." 

Not much changes when she goes. You come to stand beside him at the counter, your elbow brushing his arm. He doesn't move away. 

Joel doesn't understand why you stick around. Doesn't know what it is that makes you so sweet on him. The first time you met, outside the old meat market on the edge of curfew, he'd been standing watch as Tess made a deal. You'd slunk up on him from the right, and said, "You look unhappy," with your usual softness. 

He'd turned to you in wonder. Wonder in the very worst sense of the word; what could possibly possess you to approach him? Agitation struck like the powdery head of a match against its box, fuck off on the tip of his tongue, and you'd said, "You ever hear that Bill Withers song? 'Ain't no sunshine without rain?'" 

He'd thought you were a wannabe member of the resistance, and that fuck off had rolled right out of his mouth with ease. Your smile hardly wavered. 

"It's 'when she's gone,'" he says now.

You look up at him, he looks down at you. His thick brows relax, and his brown eyes calm. It suits him, and you'd tell him, but you're confused. 

"Huh?" 

"That Bill Withers song. It's 'ain't no sunshine when she's gone,'" he corrects you, the you from the past. He's trying to tell you something without saying it out loud. 

"Oh," you say. Your eyelashes kiss in the corners as you smile. "Right. What am I thinking of?" 

"How should I know?" He doesn't sound mad, smiling at you very briefly.

"I don't know, I thought you knew everything." 

That's not true. He can't know everything, because he doesn't have a clue in the world what he did to deserve meeting you.

please forgive any inaccuracies, I only played the game a little when I was much younger, and so this was made of my watching the first episode twice and some help from people / the wiki!! it's just for fun lol so I hope you enjoyed <3<3<3

Fake Lovers

Your are the singer of a band and a ‘rival’ of Tokio Hotel. The fans loved when you guy interact with each other. So the company make you fake date someone! 

Part one 

Georg listing x Black reader

Have fun love<3 - bc its not pr. I wrote in at 3 am. Didn't have time(:

I am a part of a girl band from the US.  I have been singing since I was a little kid. At a church and  school, I would be in a choir. I met my best friends in high school. Nia the drummer, Jade the basses and Alex played the guitar. We all had a love for music and from then, it was history. 

Alex wanted to post a song that we had been working on for the longest. The next day the girls all woke me up, telling me that the song bowled up on YouTube. I never thought it would happen but now look at us. We made something of ourselves. Going on interviews and meeting up with big names. 

We had a tour in Europe, surprisingly we had a big fan base over there. Nia, Jade, and I we’re in our practice room, thinking of more outfits for the upcoming show in a few days. “Hey, guys!”  Alex came into the room with our drink she went out to get. “Hey babe,” I said with a smile. “So I was thinking, we can do a song for the stage broke.”  are heads all turned to the left.

“Okay listen, there's a band here called... Tokio Hotel” “Oh yeah, I heard of them,” Nia said. She has always been the quiet type. The things that came out of her mouth surprised us at times but she kept us on task. “They are a really big group here. Girls are in love with them” Nia added. “They are not bad looking” We looked to see Jade on her phone looking them up.

“Well, I was thinking we can do one of their songs when we hit Germany” “That sounds good but girl... I will have to learn it in like 2 weeks. I know German but it's Arsch”.  It was a really good idea, but I didn't want to fuck up anything. “I can help you G, you forget am half germen. I speak it at home,” Nia said. “I know, but people already hate me because am black. I don't want to give them another reason.” 

“G, we will all help you, we have 2 weeks. You got this, We got this” Alex told me, All I did was shake my head. For the days leading up to the preforms, we would do a concert and after I would spend m. In my time with Nia, I learned the lyrics to the song Durch Den Monsun.

Now the two weeks are up and it was time to sing. Walking out on stage, we have seen so many people. Signs with our names and faces on them. They were so sweet and amazing. 

 Now is the time “Wie fühlen wir uns heute Abend? Ich weiß, wir sollten Pause machen. Ich wollte euch etwas zeigen. Bereit Mädels?” (How are we feeling tonight? I know we should be on break but I wanted to show you guys something. Ready girls?)

The guys gave me a head nod and we started on the song. It was 3 seconds into the song and the crowd is going wild. I could remember a thing after that. Now am back in the hotel room lying down. “You know you did amazing, you got all the words right” We stayed in two hotel rooms. I got the share with Nia. “Thanks, babe”

“G, wake up. Addy needs to talk to us” Nia told me “Girl what time is it?” “7 a.m., come on and get dressed, I have to go wake the other girls.” “Is everything okay?” “I don’t know. She told us to meet her downstairs in an hour or so. She told us to dress like ourselves. So go in the shower first, it takes you forever to do your hair” I laughed while she was walking to the next door. 

We all met up in Nia and I's room to just do some finishing touches on our look. We all have a different look. Jade, Alex, Nia, and I all wore the same shirt differently but had the same dark blue jeans. I had washed my hair and it ended up in a curled-up afro which I loved. I had made my shirt into a high crop top so you could still see our band name and the dark blue jeans high-waisted.

We got downstairs to see Addy waiting for us. “Good morning my loves. I want to meet you guys to some people!” “Addy I know you are the manager and all but I might have to kill you if you try to wake us up again this early?” Alex said. “I got you guys food” “Okay I love you again” Alex added. “So what's up,” I asked 

“Tokio Hotel saw your guys perform last night and they wanted to meet you, in person,” She said with a smile on her face. “Wait are you for really!” “Yes I am, and we have to meet this in 3 hours. The place is an hour away and I want you all awake so we will drive there. Get more food and meet up with them. Okay” “Yes” we added at the same time

“Let us get this shit on the road. Am want to sleep in the car” Alex had always been the outgoing one. Always speaking her mind and not caring. Jade was that way too but she had a filter. The car ride was okay. We called for a bit until Alex went to sleep. We stopped and ate and 15 minutes later we were at a company building. The man who was driving told us we had to go through the back, due to the fans. 

Even going through the back there was still fans everywhere. All I could think was that this group made it far. Each of us had a security guard by our side until we got into the building and into the room we were supposed to be in. Addy opened the door, she was greeted by a man who I assumed was their manager. They chatted for a few seconds then he looked at us.

“It is so nice to finally meet your girls. My name is Max and am the boy's mangers.” “Hello, Max” “Hi” we each said. “Max can you give the girls a run down for today” “Oh yes, I know it's one of your breaks from your show and I premises you girls can all sleep in Tom-” All I was thinking at this time was just sleep. “You and the boys will have an hour to yourself. No cameras, no pictures, nothing. Just getting to know each other.” He looked down had his right wrist “Then in about, an hour and a half now. We will have you guys take group pictures together. Everyone in Germany loves you guys here and why not have two big groups show some love to the people but give them what they want? Yeah!” 

The girls and I looked at each other “Excuse me, sir, what do you mean?” Nia was saying what we all were thinking. “The people want to see the group interact with one another. Is that fine with you guys?” Just nodding our heads yes. “All right, follow me!” He took us to a room, from the outside we could hear voices. 

He knocked on the door. “Boys there here”  He opened the door. The girls and I looked at each other. “So who’s going in first?” I asked “I say you G, You are a singer” “Yeah, G” “ What the fuck, why.?” You are the face of the group. Now go show your face first” I walked in with a fake smile on my face. The first person I see he a tall, guy with long brown hair. His smile was to die for and I only looked for 3 seconds before taking my eyes off him. 

The rest of the girls followed right next to me in a line. “Now I want you all to mix in with each other. Bill, Tom, Georg, and Gustav. Meet G, Jade, Alex and Nia. We will see you all in an hour” I looked around the room, It was like an office space. A big round table that fit all 8 of us. Everyone got into a spot with a person we didn’t know. The brown-haired boy sat on the right of me.

“Am Bill!” He had the biggest smile on his face and his hair was as big as mine. He sat on my left “I always wanted to meet you all. You guys are amazing!” He finished “So are you! Your voice is beautiful by the way”  I feel like I could talk to him for days without getting bored. “Do you only go by G?” “Yeah it is a stage name. And It is easier to say for people” 

It took a while but everyone started talking to one another. It felt so good being about the talk to people who have the same passion that you do. We related to each other, not even an hour later and it felt like we had been friends for over years. Less than an hour. 

I found out his name, Georg. He was talking to Jade about the animal when she brought up my name. “Oh G loves animals, She has like 5 dogs. Right G?” “Oh what's their name?” Georg had asked me. “Princess, Prince, Zoey and Zion. I only have 4.” I laughed, he was looking at me the whole time I was talking or anytime we talked. He would always be the one asking me questions. I just felt so open with him, I didn't know how to act. He made me feel somewhat. A safe way but I didn’t know if I wanted to get too close, just to keep out of making a fool of myself. 

Right when I finished laughing with Georg the door opened. We didn't stop talking, we were all having a good time. “Okay guys, It's time to go,” Addy told us “It's off the the shot. Now would you all like to take different cars or take the bus?” Max asked. “We will take the same bus, I have so much to ask Alex” Bill and Alex were talking the whole time. They seem like they would become best friends by the end of the day. 

I made sure everyone got a chance to walk out the door before I did. Georg stayed behind me. “You can go first,” I told him “No it's fine, please go first” “I really hope we aren't gonna fight about this” “We are not, because you will be going first” I walked out signing. I walked out to see Max and Addy waiting for us. We walked ahead of them. I looked behind me to see them talking, I tried to listen but I could hear nothing with Alex and Bill talking loudly. 

We went through the first to get to the bus. There were fans everywhere. Since Georg and I stayed behind a little, we ended a stuck. With people trying to get on the bus. “Hold my hand, I will push us through this,” He told me and I told his hand and made it on the bus, safely.

I hoped you like it!

Hello may I request a scenario about the princes reaction after being pranked by their s/o. it can be with anyone(if you're planning that there would be multiple suitors) but please add Keith ehehehe

✮ Pranked and Fooled ✮

CW: Emma and Silvio are naked, implied smut?

Hi Anon! Thank you for the request and so sorry about the delay!! I’ve been so busy and I’ve been struggling to keep up with requests but I’m hoping to get all of them done this weekend🕊️🌙

Keith and Silvio

˖⁺‧₊˚ ♡ ˚₊‧⁺˖

Within Jade, there was a very bored Princess. The old Belle was so used to all the drama within Rhodolite and teaming up with Clavis that the tranquility of the Jadean Palace was strange. She missed those times of chaos but she never regretted moving to Jade with Keith.

Keith only has a sister who isn’t very social; therefore it was quiet, calm and peaceful. Not like Emma minded but sometimes she needed to cause a bit of mischief.

She then thought of a prank, a prank taught to her by dear old Clavis. It was harmless but the reactions were always priceless (especially Yves’), she couldn’t help but wonder how Keith would react.

Later that day she sat with Keith, his large hand gently holding hers. “Keith,” She said with a smile on her face “Would you like to have a tea party with me?”. The question was random and the offer spontaneous but Keith thought nothing of it, agreeing right away.

The next day Emma couldn’t stay focused as she prepared everything for her prank. She had spent practically the whole day trying to remember everything and Clavis had taught her. She set out the tea party outside under a large tree, waiting for her Prince to arrive.

After a whole 10 minutes, Keith had arrived with flowers in his hands for Emma and a bright smile. She almost felt guilty but nevertheless she offered Keith to try a new recipe she had made. He loved everything and anything sweet, how could he skip on an offer such as that one?

He took the one of the golden brown cupcakes in his hand and took a big bite..

His tawny eyes widened as the taste of the cupcake and horseradish hit his taste buds, the look of disgust on his face was evident even when he tried to smile. The Princess couldn’t help but let a giggle escape as she watched him swallow and smile crookedly at her. The girl had burst into laughter a few seconds prior, small clear tears of joy spilling down her face like raindrops. Her manicured finger lifted to wipe some of the water crystals from her face, only to quickly clutch onto her tummy instead. “Happy April Fools!” She said between fits of laughter yet Keith was too busy drinking the honey tea to answer right away. The taste stuck to his tongue like fur on clothes, “It’s not the 4th” He smiled at last. After all, this was the girl he fell in love with.

Silvio was already suspicious when Emma came to him with a sickly sweet smile on her face, voice as melodic as a bird song as she had requested to shower with him.

Showering with Silvio wasn’t that uncommon, but something about Emma’s act told him she had something planned. Nevertheless, he agreed and waited til night.

When the stars were up in the sky, Emma was already waiting for her fiancé in their shared bathroom. Her naked body sat at the edge on the bathtub, small giggles left her lips as she thought of Silvio’s reaction.

Silvio eventually came, raising a brow at the excited woman before taking off his clothes and stepping into the shower after Emma. Silvio washed Emma’s hair first then her body before letting her lather soap on her hands to wash him.

Emma talked about her boring day, her hands gliding through his hair to wash it. He relaxed as she spoke after the most boring things on earth, completely forgetting about Emma’s smug grin when he stepped inside the shower first.

The water steamed resulting in all the mirrors being foggy. Silvio didn’t particularly have time to look into at any mirror as he was attacked with Emma’s hungry kisses. She had dragged him to bed almost immediately.

(To…SLEEP👀)

Emma was still in bed, the morning breeze blowing through the open windows allowing the sounds of waves crashing against the rocks below. Her [H/C] hair wild and messy and eyes wrinkled as her bubbly giggles filled the large bedroom. Silvio stood infront of the large vanity mirror he bought for Emma when she first moved into the palace, his face a mix of shock, anger and grief. Large veiny hands tangled within light blonde hair a perfect match of Rio’s, even his brows were dyed the atrocious colour. They furrowed deeply at the sound of Emma’s laughter. “Shudd up woman” he grumbled, rolling his ocean blue eyes. “You look very handsome you Tyrant” She spoke at last, getting out of the plush bed and wrapping her hands around his waist.

If you like my work, feel free to request🕊️

[ruthless-to-a-fault]

So I really liked Zoom Academy for Superheros as a kid, a widely panned kids movie from 2007 starring Tim Allen. I rewatched it fairly recently and wrote a little thing, I never ended up posting it. But here it is for funsies, I've never posted any fanfic before and I have no spelling skills. I hope anyone who also remembers this weirdly dark childrens movie likes it.

Its similar to the story you know

It starts the same, a lone survivor barely 17 powerless in the desert. The bodies of three friends scattered around him and a brother gone. Nothing left to bury.

The sheer amount of nuclear energy released by the vortex jack creates finds it's way into the atmosphere. Resulting in a generation of children born with powers. Not enough to cause a fuss but the neighbours aren't too surprised when Cindy uproots a tree to shake out her frisby. Kevin down the street can make little wind gusts, Cindy's power level though is enough to catch attention.

As is Dylan's, Summers and Tuckers, when he uses it that is.

So they all end up in that miltary base. Jack with the promise of money if trains them, he rather take the carrot than stick. The jail he'd end up in probably looks less like a prison and more like a fresh ditch and bullet in the head.

The kids go of course because they're parents say so and so does the military. Their parents sign waivers and are fairly compensated for their loss. On that day they go from children to military assets, an important distinction where legality is concerned.

The story is much the same, jack is jaded, the children adjust as best they can to their environment. Holloway gives encouragement as best she can knowing she is likely sending children to die.

Better a heros death she tells herself, they'll get comic books written about them just like jack. The comic books don't mention that he's always late thinking he'll get there faster than he can, or that he's deaf in one ear, or that below the left knee he is metal.

They expose the children to gamma, of course they do. One child's life is not worth what Concussion could do. Dylan is the first. They reason better the invisible kid go crazy than one that can lift a truck. It unlocks his clairvoyance `mindsight` jack calls it. He vomits for days afterward but he does not go crazy and he does not die.

Concussion shows up before the military can dose the rest. Jacks powers reactivate to save Cindy. To this day there is still shrapnel in her arm from shards of the metal net, too small for the surgeons.

Concussion sends back the rocks that summer throws at him, most miss. One doesn't, it hits her right in the eye. Cindy thinks the eyepatch she wears after is cool so summer does mind too much.

Tucker manages a good hit in before a blast sends him into rocks that leaves him paralysed from the waist down. He always says it could be worse, if he lost an eye like summer, that would be it. God forbid the world be deprived of his baby blues.

Dylan comes out relatively unscathed. The gamma damage stays however, it was a miracle that jack lived past 40 and it will be another if he does.

Connor is saved. Thanks to jack, Concussion is just his big brother again. Still 19 and no longer trapped in a space between here and now.

Jack however, there is a reason his powers stopped working. It isn't a mental block caused by the pain of losing his family. It was self defence. The speeds he could move at weren't sustainable on his body, especially after the first vortex. So his body shut it down.

He is nearing 50, he is not 17, his body gives up. Jack is Zoom for a fight, jack gets to be Zoom once more before he drops from exertion and does not get up.

Summer and the rest take the ship and Connor. You can't track space tec, staying hidden helps when you've got a friend that can see around corners. They live in a house a little bit too small for them in a city easy to get lost in and try to adjust back to civilian life.

Connor is old enough to pose as an older brother and the kids get to go back to school. It's easier to make friends now at least, high school bullies aren't very scary anymore. Connor disappeared in the 80s so the all the technolgy is a riot. He misses he brother and blames himself for his orginal teams deaths.

The new family helps him move on. When Cindy finishes high school they move out to a farm. Summer finds business is easy when you can sense emotion, so money isn't a problem.

Cindy can lift all the heavy objects she wants. Summer loves the animals and tucker is a mean cook. Dylan learns to garden. Connor fixes stuff when it breaks and retrofits tuckers chair with tracks and others gadgets inspired by the ships design.

There is a horse named jack because he's the fastest they have and whenever the gang needs a break they go brush him. Everyone knows it means to leave them be. They all have their own demons.

They sell things at the famers market. The community is endeared if confused by the odd family. They don't ask questions, they are all out here for their own reasons and tucker makes the best pies in town.

They heal, away from the military. They are not heroes. They are a family and they are happy.

#zoom academy for superheros #I only write fanfic for obscure shit im too cool for mainstream #tim allen is still the worst guy you know even in this version #i know nuclear radiation doesnt work like but the movie thinks it does so its true in my heart #i love traumatised bitches making families

Asks Compilation 11/07

[ I have a list of fanworks to send after the end of Hivebent but feel free to send more :D - Cat ]

That’ll be a fun diversion! Yeah, definitely send them on!

Honestly, the fucked up Fetch Moduses was a big part of what got me hooked initially. Programming trivia used as an in-universe mechanic? I mean, come on. 

Good idea. My anime-addled brain initially pronounced Karkat as Kakorot...

I watched the first two(?) seasons in a single day when I was a student. I remember thinking the weapons were cool as shit, but I clearly wasn’t hooked enough to continue. 

I mean, tell me this doesn’t look like an alchemy weapon.

You know, I’ve never actually seen Homestar Runner? I think I confused it with Homestuck a lot before I started reading the latter.

Honestly! I’ve come to accept that that’s just how they communicate. 

Maybe they’ll start to relax when they’ve been out of Alternia for a while, but I’m not holding my breath.  

Oh, they’re good. Guns & Roses is a fucking excellent RoseJade ship name. 

You have my blessing to use the LeaderShip, but damn.... Communism is pretty amazing. 

Yeah, I think you’re probably right. I don’t think the ‘Grief = Crabdad is doomed’ thing was intentional, but damn is it good. 

Ok, that makes a lot more sense. ‘Freak of nature’ usually denotes an abnormal or unnatural life form, so I wonder if that implies the Lusi were engineered by Alternia, who wanted a biotech nanny monster to automatically raise their little soldiers.

And I’m not the only one wondering this, it seems! 

Honestly, the entire troll life cycle reeks of bioengineering, so I think this is actually pretty likely. The Mother Grub ensures that as many trolls are born as possible, the Trials ensure these trolls are as brutal as possible, and the Lusus ensures that trolls don’t need to waste time raising children. 

@iris-in-the-dark-world asked: i just realized that jade's tower looks like one of the moon towers from the frog temple [snipped for spoilers - C ] 

Yup. We already know her house is a copy of a Prospitian Dream Building, and this is another example of Grandpa’s house following the ‘Sburban architectural style’.

It hasn’t been explained yet, but I guess the default explanation is that Grandpa built it this way on purpose. Who knows why. 

[ yeah, friendsim isn’t canon but this is implied there xD - Cat ] 

Space empires have no need for flying machines that can’t destroy the enemy’s planets!

‘They’re a military state’ explains it all, really. 

Sburb can hit any civilization, including ones which would be the villains of a sci-fi movie.

They’re awfully amorphous, aren’t they? Maybe that’s her real psychic power. 

I’m just going to assume the shape we see in her main sprite is the canon one.

This was the real Mistake.

Noted - I was probably just going to keep doing what I was doing - reading the full comic while omitting quotes with slurs. It’s not like I need to include them to analyze the comic, or anything.

Does the fact that I’m considering making theme music for my ‘sona change anything? 👀

Probably not any time soon - I do not understand FL Studio - but maybe eventually. Gotta give her the full set of Homestuck patterns!

One thing I’m not is the Blogger of Consistency. Rest assured, I’ll always come back when the hyperfocus returns time is right. 

Thank you! My blog is a safe space for lurkers of all kinds. I’ve certainly done my fair share of lurking.

Gamzee is the first pattern breaker of the trolls. Gamzee x Jade confirmed??

Haha, but no, these patterns are really more like guidelines these days. Terezi already doesn’t have a lusus, and TA quit his own introduction page in a huff. We can’t be 100% sure that any of these will hold anymore. 

That’s the closest thing to a ‘canon’ pronunciation of Terezi’s name as we’re going to get - although, really, it’s up to the reader. 

If any class would just have things given to them, it would be the Heir. John is much more likely to react to things than be pro-active, and I think the fact that he has a class that evokes just being given things is deliberate. 

This is why I don’t think GA is Vriska. She just doesn’t have that X-factor.

Literally how. HOW did Homestuck characters get into a Namco game.

Is it a fangame? This is so funny to me for some reason, it feels like two streams that should never ever cross, but I suppose Toby Fox has done some music for Nintendo before...

Yeah, the tumblr mobile app is a mess. I’ve tried to make liveblog posts on it before, but it’s much too fiddly, and it completely breaks my workflow. The mobile browser works fine - it actually respects the custom HTML on my theme - but I doubt the app is even using HTML. 

The green background fixes the hyperlink contrast issues - and as a bonus, I actually really like it. I’m keeping it.

Thank you for tagging me @nightofnyx8

Wow, time really flies! I still remember writing my greatest hits of 2022 last year and now it’s already the end of 2023! This year had its ups and downs for me but I think it’s been a positive year in terms of my personal growth. Hoping next year will be a good year for everyone!

Greatest Hits of 2023:

1. I overcame a depressive period with the help of people around me. In the middle of the year, I felt really down because I felt like I was falling behind my friends. They are all moving forward while I feel like I’m stuck in place. I feel like I’m doing my best but it isn’t enough compared to others. However, when I went out to dinner with my friends from university. I discovered that they’re all feeling the same way! I’m not alone! I learned to not dwell on social media much because stuff that are shown are not always the full story. I’ve been reminded to be kind to myself as well.

2. I’m approaching my 5th year at my job next year! An important milestone since it wasn’t a job that imagined doing but I’m grateful to have this job. I feel like I’ve grown a lot as a person. Of course, there are frustrating things that happened and annoying people that caused drama but I also learned how to deal with them. Working in HR helped me to deal with annoying people in the fandom too haha.

3. Fandom-wise, I’ve made a lot of changes in the way I approach fandom. I used to take negative comments against my favourite media personally but now I just don’t care. I can’t control what other people think but I can control how I react and choosing to ignore annoying comments has made my fandom experience much more peaceful. I’m going to continue to enjoy things in my own way! Also curating my various social media feeds by muting and blocking is a blessing to my mental health! Being detached from the fandom and experiencing the story with a few trusted mutuals/friends really is the best way to enjoy fandom 😄

4. I managed to figured out my priorities in life: what truly matters and what doesn’t. I’m ashamed it took me so long to figure it out but I’m glad I did! I want to be more outspoken about the things I care about and to not be afraid to admit that I was ignorant about many things.

5. I’ve been writing a lot more this year and I’m so proud of my progress! I found my place as a meta/analyses writer and sharing my thoughts on my favourite media has been a lot of fun! I still have a long way to go but I’ll continue to do my best! Thank you to all the people who encouraged and supported me! I appreciate all the interactions with my posts! I have a big personal project planned for 2024 and I’m very excited about it!

Muneco Drabble... REAL (pt. 2)

Rushing this part out for the anniversary, so it's kinda short. But we making it to the boss fight with this one 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ ‼️ ‼️ ‼️ And with this, I have to start, actually writing this again. Muneco honey I missed you so much. I don't have much else to say except enjoy!

Word Count: 620 / Part 1 here

Taglist: @crickiss @caracello @wutheredhearts @halsdaisy @sharkyaoi @cringefail-boyfriend-liker @jocelynships @imaginemyshipswithme [If you want to be added or removed from the taglist, click here!]

(Please reblog! I like reading tags :] )

We ran deeper and deeper still into the Temple and eventually came across one of Muñeco’s chickens.  It ran away from us… right to the magician. My two friends stood in front of me protectively.

“The infamous luchadors!  Gertrude, you were right!  Well, if what you’re after is the fabled Relic… Bad news, busters, because I’M getting it.  And once I bring it back to Salvador, I’ll be the favorite!”

He zipped in front of us to reveal he had stuck googly eyes on his hand.

“Oh, Muñeco, you got the Relic!”  He suddenly shifted to a much deeper voice to imitate Salvador, and I couldn’t help but let out a snort.

Muñeco turned his head to look at me, but upon seeing I was entertained, he grinned wider.  “Now that I’m the ruler of the Mexiverse, I’ll need a best friend… And I choose YOU!”  His voice went deeper and more ridiculous, and I tried to hold in some snickering.  

“Oh, Salvador, haha… You flatter me…” His voice went back to normal, but Muñeco’s gestures made up for it, being much more dramatic than what was probably needed.  I didn’t stop myself; I laughed.  Muñeco did a deep bow with a big smile, taking off his hat with a flourish.  “Thank you señorita, you are a lovely audience.

“Now girls, remember my sign and the song I wrote for this inevitable moment; Loretta on my 6–“

One of the chickens he didn’t have his attention on squawked high and loud, and that snapped him out of his theatrics.  “Okay okay we’ll rehearse AFTER we get the Relic!  No time to waste— 5, 6, 7, 8!”

His chickens jumped into his arms, and he teleported off.  Juan and Tostada glanced over at me.

“Sorry, sorry, I know he’s our enemy but—“ I started before Tostada cut me off.

“It WAS pretty funny.  Don’t worry about it.”

~

We finally came to the deepest chamber of the Jade Temple.  Inside, there were two pressure plates on the floor and two Eagle Soar markers.

Suddenly, three familiar chickens dropped down to the ground.

“Harmony sqaaaaaa-“

“-aaaaaa-“

“-aaaaaawk!”

“Who’s that?  Who’s that?”  They repeatedly asked, looking around every corner of the room.

Then we saw who they were referring to as he floated down.  “IT’S MEEEEE!!!”  He threw some confetti out of his hat.  “El Muñeco!!”

I didn't want to push my luck with Juan and Tostada by clapping (no matter how adorable I thought the entrance was).

However, the female luchador must’ve noticed my look of wonder as she gave me a little nudge.  “Maybe you can chat with your boyfriend later,” she teased. “But right now, we have to stop him from finding the relic.”

Whatever I was going to say got caught in my throat.  “He-!  H-He’s not my-“

“Boyfriend?” Great, he heard that.  "Who are we talking about here?"

Tostada patted the top of my head to signify she meant me. "Well, you two seemed to have hit it off right away is all."

Muñeco's eye holes went wide and he stiffened up like a puppet. "I-I mean-!" He stuttered. "I can't date her; I barely know her! I mean... it's not like she wasn't friendly with me when most people barely want to look at me... And she actually enjoyed my jokes... And she's..." His voice got quieter as he talked until his words were completely inaudible.  Tostada had a little knowing smirk on her face, while poor Juan looked completely lost.

But it didn’t last long; one of Muñeco's chickens squawked in his face, snapping him back to the incoming fight.  But he was much more flustered.

“G-Girls, take five!  I’ve g-got to show these luchadores some tr-tricks!”

[hyunjinspark]

jade i hope you’re doing well, i’ve missed you and slwy so much !!!! thank you once again for sharing your writing with us 🩷🩷

It felt like a break-up except you and him weren’t even fucking dating.

His hand peeked out from under his button-up sleeve. You reached forward, not thinking before slipping your fingers between his.

The gesture surprised him, and he glanced up at you with big eyes. He squeezed your hand, finding comfort in it.

literally not even 20 seconds in and you’re already making me tear up. and yn?? her first thought is to comfort him and ask about jisung istg this girl is an angel

Your fingers settled on his jaw, to calm him, “I mean, I know that you can’t stay here forever. You were only here for the summer anyway”

It felt anticlimactic. This was why he was so nervous, why Felix was so mad, why they were fighting?

oh fuck this hurts my heart is breaking she still thinks they have the rest of the summer 😭

Hyunjin wasn’t going to be holed up in this small town forever. Everybody knew it would always be temporary, so what was the drama for?

just fell to my knees, dear god yn is breaking my heart….. she knew from the start that whatever thing she had with hyunjin would be temporary,,,, but the fact that she questions what the big deal was is so sad ?? like even though she’d be upset when he’d have to leave, i think she was already mentally prepared for that moment because she knew that they only had the summer but now even that is being taken from her. yn is so selfless, but i wish she’d act more selfishly and realise that her feelings are completely valid and it’s okay to let him know he hurt her

Of course he’d figured everything out. A man as precise as Hyunjin, of course he’d already solved for all the problems you couldn’t even foresee. But what about you?

You felt a surge of hopelessness, because he didn’t understand how important this was to you. How important he was.

A laugh escaped you, at the lost innocence of that sentence, “What? My list is not… important, Hyunjin” He frowned, “It was to me…”

yn has said time and time again how important hyunjin is to her but she can’t fathom that she is just as important to him. this is fine :)

You drove past Aera’s, and Hyunjin’s gaze lingered on it, long after you’d already passed it.

am i still holding onto hope that hyunjin remembers her from all those years ago? yes. is it causing me an indescribable amount of pain? also yes.

You reached over without thinking, hand settling over his, and immediately, he was calm.

the fact that her mere presence calms him i am UNWELL .

You flipped to another page, but Hyunjin’s hand reached out to stop you. You looked at him questioningly. “Uh…you can go through that later. We don’t have much time”

wait did he draw her?? i really want yn to see herself through hyunjin’s eyes, i think that will finally get her to realise how much of an impact she’s had on his life

You didn’t know he noticed so many things about you, and so your heart warmed at just that implication. Hearing him recount what you’d been going through, you also felt a little emotional.

i am going to jump out my window how is every single paragraph hitting me with a new level of despair

You have such a kind heart, Hyunjin. You put your soul into everything you do, even if that’s just talking to someone at the grocery store or something. I think if someone met you, even for just a day in their life, you’d impact them forever

wow this is so beautiful 🥹💗

You always had to wait for moments. Moments like the one in the Photobooth. Or under the fireflies. The special moments you lived for.

In the movies, they were so dramatic, but real life wasn’t like that. In the books, they were so romantic, but there was no time for love in his life.

you don’t even understand how much slwy means to me, i know that i’ll still be thinking about it for years to come. hyunyn are everything to me

His wait held so many promises. So much hope. Wait, I’m in love with you too. Wait, I’m fucking stupid for leaving you all alone in this town. Wait, please don’t leave me without kissing me goodbye. He retreated to the kitchen counter, “Wait — your sketchbook. Don’t forget to take that” 

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME 😭😭

You’d come back to see him again, and in the same breath he was coming after you. The world was really so cruel.

How could two people be so perfect for each other but be destined to be apart?

idk let’s ask user hyunjinspark 🤨

He was savouring every kiss - no half-kisses, no pecks - mouth crushed to yours like he wanted to devour you and you’d let him.

i want you to know that you write the some of the most toe-curling, lip-biting smut on this app because this entire section was so 😩🥴🫠🥵🔥🔥

but also, i loved how innocent (lol) this scene was. you mentioned it too, but it did feel like they were two teenagers experiencing it all for the first time. i think it’s a really nice contrast, given everything they’ve been through and the depth of their feelings for each other, that this is their last moment — in another life, this slightly awkward but intimate moment would’ve been the first of many and would lead to a growing relationship; it’s a really nice contrast to show how it could’ve been 🥲

He kissed you a rushed goodbye, but for the first time that night, your heart didn’t hurt anymore

AGH THEIR GOODBYE IS SO BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN AND HIT ME IN ALL THE RIGHT PLACES I CANT EVEN BE FULLY UPSET

It was a picture of him at a stairwell, surrounded by three boys you’d come to recognise as Chan, Changbin and Jisung. They were smiling wide, teeth on display and Changbin was making a kissing face toward’s Hyunjin’s cheek, lips pouted and ready

my 3retcha 🥺💖💖 also changbin once again being the most relatable person to exist

He revealed a cropped baby blue t-shirt, with rhinestones across the hem. The shirt rose enough to show his bellybutton piercing and clenched abs. You held your breath, staring at the pictures. A thin choker adorned his neck too, and he was slightly smirking in the picture.

WHY WOULD YOU PUT THIS IMAGE IN MY HEAD ⁉️⁉️ the day hyunjin decides to wear a crop top (if he wants to) is the day i swan dive into the earth’s core

Hyunjin in Daejon was…a sweetheart, but Hyunjin in Seoul…was a fucking menace

and when yn goes to seoul and meets this menace version then what? what about the shred of sanity i have left?

“That doesn’t sound like you” She finally said. “Yeah, well maybe you don’t know who I am anymore. You haven’t talked to me in months”

THANK GOD yn didn’t forgive her !!! yn is better than me though, ik she doesn’t want to fight but after the shit hana put her through, i’d say hana’s getting off too easy

“When I get stuck in the middle of the writing process, I think of you, and it really helps”

You’re his muse, and it’s fitting because he’s always been yours.

SHUT UP THEYRE EACH OTHER’S MUSES 😭😭😭 and when yn can finally paint about love bc of hyunjin? and when hyunjin is no longer afraid to love bc of yn and writes a love song for her? 😭

“The day you stop worrying about what other people think, is the day you’ll live a much better life, Y/N”

minho and yeonjun >>>>>> anyone else

hyunjin and yn texts and little updates to each other is so cute 🥺 got me giggling and kicking my feet

i really liked felix’s redemption arc, and i liked that, compared to how cataclysmic their conversations have been recently, this was almost anticlimactic. it does really show felix’s growth and realising his feelings/accepting yn’s own feelings. and i’m glad they’re friends again

side note but ty for not giving hana a redemption arc (yet?) bc whilst it’s clear felix has reflected on his behaviours, hana was still so inconsiderate to yn and just flat out ignored the way she’s been a shitty friend. honestly good for yn for the way she handled things

Congratulations. Kim Jieong would be honoured to have you join him as an apprentice for his Fall Program in Painting at the Atelier of the Arts in Seoul, South Korea.

MY YN 😭 SHE DESERVES IT SO MUCH SHES MOVING TO SEOUL AND GOING TO SEE MENACE HYUNJIN AND EVERYTHING WILL WORK OUT 🔮🙏🏽✨💫

You wait for his answer, but your message doesn’t deliver.

nvm i spoke too soon 😐

“We're sorry, you have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.”

i know that he probably has his reasons, and with everything going on with the other members too, but that doesn’t make it hurt any less. ik he’d never do anything to intentionally hurt her, so i think it’s for her own safety or something

Over the past few months, Minho has discussed all of his theories with you, about what could have happened. He’s so sure, that Hyunjin’s company is involved. You want to believe him, because there’s no way Hyunjin would do this.

lee minho has my entire fucking heart i would move mountains and the sky for this man

You swallow, “Thank you. I know you never really wanted me to move away. But I’m really glad you understand how much this means to me” “I rather you be away from me than be miserable in this little town”

felix stop making me cry 🥹🥹 i’m so happy that they’re friends again

AHHH YANG JEONGIN !!!! i hope he and yn become good friends i adore their dynamic already. also choi yeonjun once again raising my standards and being better than everyone else by just existing

The most beautiful boy in the world… stands on the other side of the shelf. You’d recognise that stance anywhere. 

NO FUCKING WAY NOT THEM RANDOMLY MEETING THE FIRST WEEK SHES THERE ❓❓❓THEYRE REALLY GIVING A WHOLE NEW MEANING TO SOULMATES

You believe in destiny, and he has to be yours.

screaming and crying at yn’s growth so far, from rejecting love and thinking herself unworthy of it to believing hyunjin is her destiny oh i am UNWELL you are cruel for making me read this gut wrenching sentence with my own eyes

You were about to say something, but the words never made it past your lips, because he immediately looked away from you. It was as if he had never known you. Like you were a stranger.

The city of Seoul had never felt so quiet, as right now.

i genuinely have no words,,,, i was grinning at their reunion but was not prepared for him to ignore her. the way you got my hopes up too after yn called him her destiny 🥲 should’ve known you’d end the chapter with more angst 😔

okay but i kid you not the second i finished reading this i got a notification for hyunjin’s live. istg he has a sixth sense for knowing when you’re about to drop a new chapter bc HOW did this man drop love untold and dlmlu around the same time as the previous two updates and now he’s going live ??? maybe the live will fill the void in my heart after reading this chapter,,,,

once again, to call your writing beautiful would be an understatement. your prose and dialogue are so poetic and i love how you constantly keep us on our toes by mixing up the fluff and angst so we never know what to expect. it’s clear you put so much time and effort into slwy, thank you for sharing your work with us 🩷🩷 thank you for yet another incredible chapter and i’m sorry about the word vomit lol. i’m excited for what comes next for hyunjin and yn 💗

— 🎐

i look forward to all of your reviews so much istg i experience every emotion reading them. youre so funny and i thank you for always pointing out your favorite parts of the chapter ! it helps me get better and realise what you like/dislike about the story.

and youre so right :(( she did think they still had the rest of the summer…i love breaking her heart. 😄 and about the smut…i love your thinking ! it definitely is like the exploration of a new relationship and a new love except it comes as a drastic goodbye instead and its interesting (but heartbreaking) to imagine what could have been 👀

i love reading all of your little comments on everything ! thank you 😭 im glad you love yeonjun and jeongin and minho because theyre sticking around…

and yes hyunjin definitely has a sixth sense for the updates its insane haha. i also love that youre keeping track of those releases and my updates simultaneously. ☺️

thank you 🩷 youre so so kind for this message and its not word vomit pls dont apologise, i reread this a thousand times already !

#star lost with you

Renee

*I just roll my eyes as Michael blatantly ignores me, scooting back from her and the phone, leaning against the headboard, scoffing as he tells her to go easy on the nachos, wanting to take the phone from her hand and throw it out the window, no one should ever talk to their fiancé like that, even if it was a joke, Jen was in perfect shape and no one - especially her soon to be husband - should be making comments like that* *I felt myself bristle as he calls her sweetheart, being so overly jealous in this moment, really hating him for other reasons but right now all I could think about was how he didn’t deserve her, also cringing at the nickname ‘Jenny’, never calling her that since she used to hate it when she was younger, not surprised that she didn’t tell him that though, him being so completely oblivious* *I was thankful when there was a knock at the door, getting up and all but rushing out of the room, all those repressed feelings from our teenage years creeping up on me again, remembering how there was a long time when I wasn’t okay with hearing about her dates and the men she had crushes on, always feeling so angry and frustrated for a long, long time, worried that our friendship would never be the same and I was feeling that right now, knowing I needed to find some girl to put my attention onto, annoyed that our friend Jade said she couldn’t make it since the two of us had been hooking up casually, and that would’ve made for a great distraction, sighing as I get to the front door, knowing I needed to get this frustration out somehow* *I get the food, tipping the bellboy and rolling the tray into the bedroom, taking the lids off of the food, sighing happily as the scents hit me, not even realizing just how hungry I was until this moment* You ready to eat, Jen? These nachos look amaaaaaazing. Very cheesy. 

_____________________________________

*pouts a little when he mentions the dress, having a moment of doubt when I wonder about the amount of food I’d eaten but not lingering on it as he wishes me goodnight, smiling a little and nodding* Love you too. Speak tomorrow. Night night. *says sweetly, glancing up as the door knocks and you go and get it, saying my goodbyes before hanging up the phone and feeling a bit of a weight in my stomach, not sure what to make of it as I was too drunk to properly interpret it, my brow furrowed and bringing my knees up to my chest as I think over my conversation with michael and try and work out why I felt a bit down* *looks up when you wheel the tray in, looking at the food and my stomach rumbling before feeling guilty as I look at the amount of food, biting my lip and pouting a little* I don’t know if I should have any. I look a lot. *my voice was still a little slurred but tinged with sadness now, not attributing it to Michael at all but my happiness and enjoyment had definitely faded after our phone conversation, sighing a little and looking up at you, my stomach growling with how hungry I was and my eyes big and wide and sad* Maybe just a little bit?

yes, it is i, miss spiritual tramp 1948 back at it again on the one’s and two’s. life had become so flavorless, the wind knocked out of my sails and a patience worn so thin that even the mildest shakeup has left it in tatters. now i am born anew. i am the salt of the earth and the morning dew before sunlight hits and regenerates the soil beneath us. the batteries in your favorite radio from when you were a kid are full charge now and we can hear music like it’s the first time. nothing will ever taste like this again. we surround ourselves with tiny glass houses and delicate armor but no maps or compass to guide us. i grow backwards over time, unlearning the things i once knew to be true as the people i root for never seem to do the same for me and the ones i give my love and energy to never seem to have any to give back. i am always the one trying, the one giving and giving and giving, and this has become quite the predictable conundrum of being a magnet to nothing but takers. i don’t want to become this jaded, disillusioned version of myself, i can’t stand those people. the ones who have been burnt so many times that they stop trusting altogether and project everything the last person did to them onto everyone new that enters their life, no thank you. i want sweet cinnamon and honey to drip over me in a slow waterfall and to feel embraced effortlessly and without hesitance, to have no other choice but to be trapped under the weight of a warmth so pure that i have to give in to a raw and sticky sweetness. ah but no, we must play games. we must dawdle at the whetstone and find ways around saying the things we wish to express, to avoid talking altogether and to drown out the sounds with something else entirely. it’s tiring. it’s very exhausting doing this dance with people all the time. i don’t want to shell out any more of myself for those that wish not to covet me but rather toss me about like a mouse on the brink of a heart attack. i miss the days when this wasn’t the case. there was a time when we just went for it and it wasn’t a big deal and it worked out despite all the dramatics and hysteria that may have come along with it. this was a young love i can never get back, can never re-experience save for the rare memories kept far in the back behind the danger zone when everything became unsafe and the ability to trust stripped away like wood furnishing. it is still there, albeit worn and weathered, and sometimes i wish to be naive again and to undo all the damage of what experience and age has taught me. i wasn’t so headstrong, so rough around the edges, and all the people that ruined me and broke me into a million pieces had yet to warp my view on what relationships are supposed to be like. now i am frightened to go near them, constantly playing it safe, always protecting my heart from their grasp and holding back in ways so crucial to my survival that it feels like i am a vague memory of myself.

i remember being so wild and free, of having such vibrant glimmer in my eyes that it woke the whole room and was enough to power a town full of lights. i used to canon ball through life with such hopeful naivety, and i hate romanticizing the past so much but god do i miss not having to be so wise and untrusting. how many more chances will i have left in this life to fall prey to a single haunting melody and a boundless ache that knows only the echo of a winter chill? my vulnerability is hidden beneath the winding petals of a rose and only the most mischievous of garden gnomes have access to the entrance code. i hate you for what you did to me last summer, for what you did when we were teenagers, and for the way you will continue to live inside of me and break parts of me in ways i can never get back. i hate that i still give a shit! you have never loved anyone more than your own reflection, your own precious wit, so impressed with yourself and your attention seeking fans that ogle your every move. how fantastic to be such an immortal among men! i don’t blame you or hold any of this against you, not for long anyway. it drives me mad that i fell for so many stupid tricks again and again, but i suppose i wouldn’t take it back if it meant having to erase you completely. you are indeed a part of me, albeit one i’d like to often forget, but something deeply ingrained in me all the same. i wish things had been different, but there is no genie to fulfill these stupid little whims even on the most gallant of days.

i can’t imagine trusting anyone. i can’t decide if this is from the deviance of those i’ve spent time with in the past or the whole thing where i was betrayed repeatedly by a hateful father who taught me to fear men and people alike. who’s to say? i certainly don’t like the arrogance with which i’ve been spoken to or treated over time, or the utter shock it was to actually see me for the first time after years and years of having chance after chance to open your fucking eyes. i dream of a love so pure that even the children weep for us, one where we forget these horrid things that have consumed us, the life sucked out of us now revived and restored in its fullest glory. i want to forget the opportunistic claws that once dug so harshly into my sides and left scars deep within my skin. i need you to understand the magnitude in which you utterly destroyed me. i don’t think you ever will. i think you do this to people without a second thought and you move on like nothing ever happened. dare i say you blame others for your own actions and free will, your lack of consideration and the way you expect the entire world to revolve around you, and oh god how we do! how we dance around you in merciful glory like little idiots hoping for another taste. and yet look at you, still the saddest thing i ever saw, the gloomiest little lion beneath all that zest and gumption. it took me so long to turn you off from my brain and move forward into the light, to be fine alone and stand on my own without a hand to hold, and now what? now i lay here in this grave you planted me in, this shallow fucking nightmare of la resistànce that swallows me whole, and i am but a fragile collection of bones again. you are big smiles and charm and everyone loves you, what an impressive burst of light you are! and you are. so sickeningly good at everything you do, i can’t even be mad about it. isn’t that the way you like it? just detached enough for no one to have the right to feel anything at all unless it’s positive and gracious? i was so sure i had turned the channel, had finally managed to look away for good, was so proud of myself for breaking the spell and finding my way out of the labyrinth once and for all. but here i lie, ready to drown back in it, freefalling back down the rabbit hole as if it never struck me or bruised and battered me the entire way down. i cannot trust that you have changed or learned from any of this, it just feels like you want to fast forward past the hard parts and skip to the reward, and you know i am weak enough to let you despite the emotional gymnastics i’ve endured just to get this far. i hate you i love you you’re toxic i want you i’m disgusted with both myself and your goddamn games you create just to win, because you always need to win. i always let you win even when it eats me alive. you don’t want to love, you want something to control, something to adore you without question and to never outshine you, to never compete with your glow or threaten your pride or come close enough to sting your ego. i am but a little firefly moseying about, meaning no harm and slowly dying in this jar you keep me in. i wish you loved me the way you love you, the way i love you, or the way we all love you. the truth is, and this is the really ugly part that i know you’re not ready for but something you certainly must know deep down under all of those lies you tell yourself: no one will ever love you enough. it will never fill the void, you will search your entire life trying to gobble it from the masses, and still you will feel alone and uncared for at the end of the day because you built a life around the empty hearts of millions after being too scared to invest in just one. i know this because i did the same, i do the same, and i too will die from the grief of being alone in a roomful of people before i ever find solace in the warmth of sugary sweets willing to shower me with their truest affection. i can’t imagine having to bear it without you anymore, but i have to let you go. i beg of you, release me.

Today 11:11 hit. I looked at my phone and my heart flooded. I think there was something about finding a drawer full of your shit that has me spinning out a little. I loved you with everything I had and I poured myself into our relationship. I accepted you for all your flaws and I wanted nothing more than forever with you.

I’ve been thinking a lot about our breakup. My soul was crushed. I couldn’t get out of bed for days. If I was alone I was crying. I drowned myself in break up songs and my whole being ached. I had never experienced sadness like that.

Sometimes I wonder if I’ve grown and now it could work.. it couldn’t. I still want what I want and you still want what you want. We would be compromising endlessly again.

But I will never forget the days we spent together. The cuddling, cooking, laughing, movies, parks, adventures all of it. You were my best friend and I still get a little sad about it from time to time. The way you held me and said “girl breath!!” - I would laugh so hard I really couldn’t breath. The way you would turn to nova and say “let’s riiide.” When you’d pop in on me working with pancakes. When you made us charcuterie boards and tequila shots. You convinced everyone I took a shot out of your shoe. We were a team and I loved you. Thank you for the happy memories and thank you for getting me through the hardest/scariest time of my life.

Heart break just sucks. I’m burnt out on bringing people into my life and then watching them go. It’s impossible to not remember the good and it’s impossible to not want that good back. I’ve been ever hopeful and trying so hard to love big but now I’m broken. It finally happened. I’m jaded.

hi~ I would like to ask twisted wonderland with a trio from octavinel. Mc female. Do you know this topic when a guy and a girl are sitting in a box or closet in a not decent pose? It was interesting to read. God, I'm so ashamed, you can ignore the request if you don't like the idea~

I love this idea! I'll give it my best shot, so I hope you enjoy.

"I can't see anything! Where'd the door even go?"

"I imagine the same place it was before it closed- OUCH! Watch where you're stepping!"

"Sorry Azul! It's not like I did it on purpose, you know."

Both you and Azul had enough reasons to dislike gym class to begin with, what with his general lack of athleticism and your general lack of magic. So adding on "getting stuck in the broom closet while putting them away after flying lessons" seemed pretty inevitable. You felt around for the wall in the general area of where you remember the door being, finally finding the knob and giving it a rattle.

Of course. Locked. What were you expecting?

"It's locked?!" Azul stammered.

"Sure feels like it. Do you have your phone?"

"No, it's in the pocket of my uniform."

"Mine too." You sighed, letting your hand slip off the knob. "Hopefully Mr. Vargas will find us. I can barely move in here and there's a broom handle jabbing me in the spine."

"Here, allow me-" You must've been a lot closer than Azul had expected, because his outstretched hand smacked you square in the chest. You heard him yelp, pulling away from you like he'd been zapped, and the clatter of several brooms and one second-year falling to the shed floor.

"You alright there?"

"I'm fine!" His voice was high and strung-out, nothing like his usual controlled tone.

"Whatever you say. Just lemme help you." You knelt down and began moving brooms off of Azul, to which he reluctantly joined. Every so often your blind, grasping hands would collide, and each time Azul's would shoot away with a tiny sound of panic or surprise. As your vision began to adjust you were able to make out just the fairest bit of him from the light seeping through the crack under the shed door. His cheeks were rosy and flushed, eyed pointed determinedly down at the brooms he could not actually see.

"...Thank you." He quietly muttered.

"Of course! Any time."

"Which pot did you want? The big one?"

"There should be a lidded glass terrarium on one of the higher shelves. The stepstool is folded by the door."

"Thank you, Jade!"

You'd found the stepstool for the botanical garden shed right where Jade had said it would be and unfolded it with a flourish. You'd decided to join him in Science Club today, and your current mission was helping him move some mushrooms from a small pot into a larger terrarium. The one in question, glass and shaped like a little greenhouse, was on a shelf just out of reach near the ceiling of the shed. Even with the stepstool you had to hoist yourself up onto your tiptoes, struggling for the foot of the terrarium with just the barest tips of your fingers.

"It's, ah..." You panted, already beginning the feel the ache in your ankles and heels. "...A little heavier than I thought it would be!"

"Would you care for a hand?"

"I've... almost... got it!" Finally you managed to hook a finger around one of the terrarium's feet and pull it towards you, taking it into both hands. As you tried to readjust your weight the stool beneath you shifted dangerously in the potting soil left strewn across the floor. You closed your eyes and clutched the terrarium to your chest, bracing for a rough landing.

But instead of the rough thump of you hitting the floor of the shed, you collided with something broad and warm. You opened your eyes just in time to see Jade's arms snaking around you to clasp his hands over your own and the terrarium clutched in your grip. You back was pressed heavily to his chest, one foot still on the stepstool and one dangling dangerously in midair.

"Careful now. Take a step down, but slowly." He purred. You inched your foot off the stool and to the floor, Jade turning you around carefully in his grip so the terrarium was tucked between the two of you. "You really must be more careful. I'd be to blame if you were to get hurt, you know.~"

"Floyd! Do you have any idea how long we've been looking for youuuuaAAAGK!"

You were just about to give up your scavenger hunt for the troublesome Leech twin when you'd found him curled up inside, of all things, a large cardboard box in the pantry of the Mostro Lounge kitchen. You supposed there had to be something said about the genius of hiding in plain sight, consider neither you, nor Azul or Jade were able to find Floyd when his shift was supposed to start almost forty-five minutes earlier.

But now, instead of him getting to his shift and you getting back to Ramshackle to finish your Magical History paper, both of you were uncomfortably snuggled into this large box, your face practically mashed into Floyd's chest with his long legs awkwardly folded up and blockading you in on either side. It would've been enough for him to just tell you to fuck off, did he really have to manhandle you like a ragdoll and force you into this impromptu snuggling session?

"Quit yapping." He hissed, voice thick with exhaustion. "Or I'll have to squeeze ya.~"

His arms coiled around your neck, giving you a short, warning squeeze. There wasn't even any room on Floyd's sides for you to get some traction and push yourself up, so you had no choice but to lay there snug and squashed against him, rising and falling with his lazy breaths.

"Floyd, I can't breathe." You huffed, turning your head so your cheek was snug against his chest and you could hear the thump of his heartbeat.

"Shhhhhh.... It's sleepytime now, Shrimpy. No whining allowed."

anone asked: "Spoilers for season two! So since we know that MC can use magic in obey me (and doesn’t have it under control) how would anyone from twisted wonderland react to MC having an emotional breakdown and some of their magic react with them? Thank you very much and feel free to ignore this if you wish. "

-sobs as i have not seen season 2 AND my account got deleted and have to start over -

Warning: It'll hit your feels and it can be seen as Angst

Riddle

he heard a big commotion, so obviously he'll head to the scene

but once he got there , he was shocked to see you.

He was thrown off guard suddenly seeing you with magic , you were clearly suffering

but he did whatever he could to settle you down

If was rough because he wasn't the best at calming emotional people down (he would know that for sure) but he did the best he could for you

once you calmed down , he held you close , he didn't know what else to do. He just knew you needed comfort

As you quietly sob, he's gently stroking your hair "shh..it's alright. I'm here for you ..we're all here for you ."

After that he would try to have some tea with you as well as cover any injuries you may of gotten from th

"Riddle, you don't have to do this. " you stated

"and allow you to be emotionally hurt? i will not allow it."

you chuckled "Is it part of the rules ?"

Riddle paused and thought for a moment 'Yes. It is. Now Heartslabyul's rules...but mine, it is my rule to protect those i care about "

he turned in smiled "Shouldn't that be everyone else's as well? "

You felt warmth in those words and felt art ease once again

Leona

he only came because of all the noise was disturbing his sleep

but he left fear when he heard you scream

Then he bolted in the direction that he heard your voice scream

as he arrives to your area, he seems you being overwhelmed in magic

He was only stunned for a moment but only for a small bit

Leona immediately went over to you , trying to settle you down

Even when you were thrashing and struggling to move , he held you in place

Not many noticed because they were in panic but He was gently stroking your hair and purring

It did settle you but the sudden magic really drained you , so once you stopped, all you did was faint

Leona then soon carried you to your dorm with the first year gang following behind him

He didn't let anyone touch you, he just held you close to him

"l-leona..."

his ears perk up "hm..?"

"i-i'm...I'm sorry.." you quietly sobbed

He does nothing more then to sit on the couch with you and lay his head onto yours

"you have nothing to apologize for....."

He lays his head onto yours , as your face is close to his chest. All you hear is a soft purring of comfort

Azul

It was a causal day but Azul had a bad feeling

he was tapping his finger , trying to think...what is this feeling...regret..? fear...? he wasn't sure

that was until Jade burst through the door informing Azul that something happened to you

you were his beloved so of course, you come first of most things

when he saw the sight of you suffering from the sudden burst of magic and without thought, lunge towards you

Jade and FLoyd warned him to be careful but all azul could think was the pain he felt before over blotting and now the roles are reversed

he of course remembers nothing but the pain was there , you saved him and now he has to save you

with one ability he obtain, he got your magic to settle down but it didn't cause it to stop

he used this to try and calm you down, he'd hold you close while he stroked your hair in a motherly fashion

you stop but all the sudden magic and aggressive movement caused you faint

he took your to your dorm to care for you

he had the tweels look over the dorm , he stayed with you for days worrying over you

you feel bad and it made you feel worse and of course he notices

"Angel fish...please, you need to understand that you are one of the things i care for the most. You've protected me so much, it's my turn now dear "

Kalim

this one will hurt

Kalim had believed you were fine , nothing could go wrong with you

that was until jamil came running towards him

He was worried only a little, he thought Jamil just had a minor problem

"Hey jamil! what's wrong-" "it's y/n...they're in trouble."

never in his life. did he run so fast , he didn't want to believe it

as soon as he approached you, he felt nothing but despair as he saw you whaling in pain , the magic surrounding your body going haywire

His instinct made him go to you , he grabbed you and held you close , trying to settle you

It worked. but you were still hurt

Kalim took you to his dorm and he didn't even need to ask jamil to do so, jamil knew what Kalim wished for him

You were given more comfortable clothes to wear as well as easy and placement meal as well as water

Kalim was close to you , he held onto tight

"y/n...." you looked at him with concerned, you already felt bad because you didn't want him to mixed in your emotional baggage, you already felt ashamed

"Please understand y/n.. that I will always love you ...I-I'll do my best to make you happy , so please, smile. " he somewhat forced a smile but you can tell it was still genuine

all you could was just soft sob into his chest

Vil

Vil was focusing on ongoing problems at the dorm already, they weren't any trouble, they were mainly annoying

That was until a loud crash was heard

Vil's attention was caught by the noise, especially since it sounded more problematic

He and Rook who was with him rushed on over, Vil was horrified to see his Beloved thrashing on the floor which bursts of magic flowing from you

Without thinking, Vil used his pen, He caused a spell that caused sleepiness in the air. He didn't get a chance to warn those nearby, he was scared because all of his focus was on you

Rook was the only one who was able to cover himself

You fell unconscious but you twitched slightly from the magic

they were able to get you to the nurse to try and figure out what happened

All Vil could do was sit and wait until he could see you

When you were for sure fine, Vil immediately went to your side and held your hands together

As soon as you saw him, you couldn't help but start to cry. Vil confused questioned "why are you crying, it's over. "In a worried tone

"I'm...I'm sorry Im being such a burden.."

Vil just stared, no words needed to be side but he just gently pulled your close to him and held you in a gentle embrace

"You will never be a burden, not now, not ever. My sweet Potato.."

Idia

one night, the one night he's willing to leave , is to go on a date with you

He has ortho along because idia loves to see you and Ortho get along and to him feels less awkward

They were talking on their way to your dorm until they heard screaming

they unfortunately recognized that it was your voice

They both rushed over, with Ortho going on ahead

Idia's heart was pounding, he was scared , you're one of the people he cares for just as much as ortho

So when he arrived at your suffering, it sent shivers to his spine

He stood there while he just watched until it hurt his core

Then he bolts over to you and grabs onto without thinking

he holds onto tight , you held him like this when his anxiety went through the roof , so he's doing it to try to help you now

you eventually calmed down but it still hurts

Idia had Ortho tend to wounds that might of appeared from that while he held your hand and rubbed it

"-hic-...I-I'm sorry Idia...I'm sorry..." you sobbed

Idia flinched because he wasn't expecting that but he hugged you and patted your head

"I-It's fine...you did nothing wrong..I'm just happy you're still here with me.."

After that , Idia and Ortho carried you over to your dorm to take care of you better

You were sat at Idia's lap while he played one of your favorite games for you watch , he laid his head on your and just softly hums to try to keep you calm

Malleus

This is gonna hurt part 2

He was going to visit you , he loves to see you, you make day even if it's the worst of all..

So coming to see you in a fit of a magical rage seeing you in pain caused great distress

he wished to not use magic on you but had no choice

but for some reason, nothing worked. He felt fearful, of what could happen. He didn't know what to do

all he could do was grab you and hold you still

as he held you close, he quiet sobs "Child of man...my dear y/n...please .."

Your body twitches but it lessens..after a while your form had remained still.

Malleus held your face, you have fainted. No surprise, you must of used so much energy

He held you as he stood up, he wanted to take you to his dorm but your dorm was more safe in terms of comfort. So that's where he teleported

He laid you gently on the bed, which woke you up slightly. As your eyes opened, you sobbed

"!! Child of man.. what is wrong.?"

"I-I'm sorry Tsuntaro...I'm sorry for causing a mess...." you dug your face into your pillow

He sighed and petted your head "You have nothing to be sorry for my beauty. This was something you had no control over "

he then lifted and held you in his arms "i promise, i will be here when you need me the most..Even if i have to give up everything..."

Hope you enjoy!!

Soooo I have some emotions after that last episode. Buckle up folks, this us a long one

I think we were all expecting the drama of the last few episodes to end with a Bang. A final showdown between the hero and the bad guy… a big betrayal, or a death…

But that fact it didn’t? That Juno’s life just fell apart without having any major impact on the HCPD? That hit me harder than I ever expected it to. It felt real… messy; human in a way that’s hard to describe. And I’m trying to remember the last time a piece of media hit me harder.

Cause like… Juno’s life just kind of unravelled around him. He lost his job, his fiance, his ready made future. A single decision, whether it was the right thing to do or not…And his plan just imploded. Taking out every good thing in his life with it (except for Rita, thank everything)

And it felt…so real. Because sometimes life is just like that.

It isn’t right, and it isn’t fair. But it's life. No matter how good his intentions… Juno still made that choice. And he was left to try and pick up the pieces of something too broken to fix…. Or even worse. Something fixable, but at a cost, he wasn’t willing to pay.

Because the one person Juno would have turned to when things were at their lowest? The glue that could have held everything together… well she’s gone too.

it wasn’t a big betrayal or a sudden loss… she made a choice. Just like Juno did. And I think that had a bigger impact on Juno’s life than anything else could have. It wasn’t the fact she chose her mom (or her mom’s lifestyle) over him that hurt the most…. I think it was the realization that diamond wasn't the person he thought she was; that he didn’t know the person he loved as well as he thought he did (And oh boy, doesn’t that sound familiar) … is what broke him.

And that's the Juno we meet in Season 1. Bitter and jaded. Rough-edged pieces glued together one too many times.

I think that’s what really hit me with this. Because even after what happened with Ben and his mom… the Juno we saw in the last few episodes was different than the private detective that Rex Glass met. Brighter; you could hear the smile in his voice, the way he’d go soft when he said “I love you.” It was hard to consider them the same character! Until the final moments of the episode… where everything came full circle. And juno sounded so devastatingly familiar.

I wasn’t sure how I wanted this to end. But now? I think this was the right answer. anticlimactic in the best possible way
