A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS ━━ LN4.
sometimes the right words are hard to come across, and sometimes everything you need to say can be captured in an image.

oscarpiastri when the photographer becomes the photographed
user THE LADS AND LADY ARE BACK
user y/n is my favourite part of f1 actually sorry mclaren 🫣🫣🫣
↳ user i think the admin understands with the way they flirt in the comments lmao
user 🧡🧡 MCLAREN 2024 WORLD SUPREMACY 🧡🧡
user i’ve been following y/n’s stint over with the football club and i’ve been so jealous waiting for her to come back to mclaren!! her photos are on a whole different level of skill and i can’t wait to see oscar and lando’s smiling faces in her style again!!
user awww i’m kinda sad she left man city, i really liked her work and it was like a crossover of my two favourite sports teams ☹️
↳ user me too, but if she worked during the off season with them then she might do it again next year or during the summer
↳ user i think the 24/25 premier league season starts up again in mid august, but the f1 summer off season is supposed to end in late august so i don’t think that would really give her enough time to start a gig
↳ user that’s a shame
↳ user not necessarily! footballers do get a bit of a break to take vacations and recover mentally and physically during the summer, but a lot of them are back at their clubs a good chunk of time before the new season starts. assuming man city makes it to the finals in the champions league, their last confirmed scheduled match will be on june 1st, and the 24/25 premier league season starts on august 17th, which means they’ll probably be back at etihad in late july/early august if not sooner
↳ user at the very least, i hope her time with man city has gotten more people interested in f1 🙌
↳ user i’m not too sure… when she started dating ward apparently there was lots of backlash from city fans so who knows what the overall perception of her is over there
↳ user still shocked about that, i had kinda thought her and lando were together since they seem so close 🤔🤔
user mclaren admin please post more y/n behind the scenes bc she doesn’t post herself enough and we always love to see her 🙏🙏🙏
↳ user REAL
landonorris looking good! 😁🧡
↳ user what a bland comment…
↳ user bro gives us radio silence for weeks and THIS is what he comes back with..?
↳ user trouble in paradise methinks 🧐
user haven’t seen any of the garrett ward stans causing a stir in these comments which either means war is over or the mclaren admin isn’t taking any shit and is deleting them, in which case good on you mclaren admin for defending your wonderful official unofficial gf 😩😩
↳ user mclaren admin is better at protecting their official unofficial gf than garrett ward is at protecting is actual official gf 🤨
There’s a certain sense of rightness that comes from being back amidst the McLaren staff dressed in the bright papaya orange. Manchester City had been a fun adventure, and you hadn’t been lying when you told the team you’d miss working with them, but Formula One is where you belong and that had become more and more apparent as the last days of January came to an end.
The last couple of weeks had been nice. The boys had thrown you a small party on your last day, with a cake that they all spent a good hour running off afterwards. Jack had made you promise to keep in touch, and you planned on holding true to that and keeping him updated with selfies from each of the Grand Prix locations at the very least.
The dates with Garrett had worked as planned, his agent was already claiming that just you two being spotted together more than once was doing wonders for his reputation, and Garrett had been treating you civilly since then. You still resented him for how exactly he’d forced you into this situation, but you’ve managed to find a middle ground of at least appreciating what the arrangement can also do for you.
As for Lando, you hadn’t yet gotten any confirmation about how things were going with your plan. Apart from refusing to meet your eye all day and resolutely staring either into the camera or anywhere that wasn’t you, he’d been professional.
Things felt like they did back in 2019━ back when you were convinced he was just an arrogant, pretentious, self-righteous prick with a complex. You’re torn between hating every moment of it and feeling wickedly vindicated by forcing him to acknowledge the consequences of his own actions.
At the very least, however, you have Oscar.
You’d gotten to know him relatively well in 2023, not to the same extent that you knew Lando of course, but Oscar had filled a brother-shaped hole in your heart that you hadn’t even known was there. His teasing was shy at first, like he wasn’t sure if he was allowed to act that way with you, but the ribbing you’d given back had been assurance enough and he’d been a steady presence at your side ever since, cracking jokes at your expense.
There’s an unspoken agreement between the two of you that you both act as an escape. It was never acknowledged, it kind of just came to be as you both got to know one another, but you’re to Oscar what Oscar is to you━ the person you can go to when you need to pretend your more serious problems don’t exist and when you don’t really want anyone asking questions.
That’s why it surprises you when Oscar asks, “What’s going on between you and Lando?”
There’s nobody else in the car park, the sky is dark and most of the staff have already gone home or━ in the case of a few engineers━ won’t be leaving until the sun is rising tomorrow morning. The silence makes Oscar’s voice sound a bit louder, a bit harsher, a bit more like being doused in cold water.
It’s easy enough to ignore the reality of the problems between you and Lando when you hide behind your frustration. It’s even easier when Lando is so frustratingly good at pissing you off and keeping you in a haze of annoyance that perpetuates your justification of letting the tension linger. It’s hard to miss the closeness when you’re too busy being angry at him.
But the quiet emptiness of the world around you now gives you nothing to hide behind and nowhere to run━ not from Oscar’s scary perception, which has never before been locked on to you.
“Not really sure what you mean,” you answer after a moment. “Me and Lando are fine.”
It sounds as fake as it is.
“Yeah,” he scoffs. “Because whatever that tension was today was totally ‘fine.’”
The only real downside to having Oscar fill the brotherly role in your life is that he can be just as annoying as one.
You heave a sigh and shrug, “I don’t really know what you want me to say.”
“Try starting from the beginning.”
You’re at your car now, with your keys in your hand. It would be easy to get in, drive away, and ignore it all. That’s what you and Oscar use each other for anyway━ it’s your dynamic. If you really told him to drop it, you know he would. A single word would make it all go away and you could show up tomorrow morning still pretending like nothing’s different.
But the only other person who knows about everything with Garrett is Jack, and you don’t have him anymore.
So you do. You start from the beginning.
“I’m not actually dating Garrett Ward,” you say. If Oscar’s shocked at the revelation, he doesn’t show it. His face is calm and blank, and it reassures you to continue. “He needed someone to be his pretend girlfriend so he could fix his reputation, and he blackmailed me into agreeing by threatening to make up rumors that would ruin my career.”
You lean against the side of your car, fiddling with your keys. “Right after it happened, I kept trying to reach Lando. Nobody else knew and I was alone and afraid━ I didn’t know what to do but I thought that he, as my best friend, would at least be able to help me calm down and rationalize. But he never answered me.”
Oscar hums.
“When he did finally call━” you bite down on your lip when you feel tears burn at the back of your eyes, “━he berated me the entire time and asked how dumb I had to be to date Garrett of all people. Then, he proceeded to tell me exactly what people online had to say about me and my choices. He didn’t even give me a chance to explain what was going on.”
You heave out a sigh and tip your head back until you’re staring up at the never-ending expanse of the night sky. The clouds from earlier are still there, blocking out the stars and leaving it all an abyss of black.
“He still hasn’t apologized,” you mutter, sniffling. “He hasn’t said a word to me since then.”
Oscar’s quiet for another moment. He’s got his hands shoved into his pockets, and his eyes are focused on where he’s kicking the toe of his shoe down against the pavement. The tap, tap, tap is all there is for a moment, and then he hums again.
“Lando can be a real twat sometimes.”
You burst into laughter, startled. You give Oscar an incredulous look, and he shrugs.
“I mean,” he starts again, “he’s a good dude, but sometimes he can just be stupid. He does something dumb and even though he knows he’s wrong, he doesn’t know what to do about it or how to make it better, so he doesn’t do anything and just hopes that it’ll fix itself on its own.”
You nod. “That sounds pretty accurate.”
Oscar lets himself rest beside you, pulling his hands from his pockets so he can cross his arms. “I’m not saying you need to let this go, but talk to him, yeah? He was able to dodge your calls and texts, but you’re here now and he can’t dodge a face to face conversation for forever.”
“I was gonna try and really sell things with Garrett to rub it in his face,” you admit.
It makes Oscar laugh, and then you’re both laughing and it feels good to have this again.
“You know,” you breathe out when you eventually fade back into silence. “I think I’m in love with him.”
“Garrett?”
“No. Lando.”
Oscar hums.
“I think one of the reasons his whole spiel pissed me off so much is that I’ve been pining after him for years now, pushing it down so that I don’t ruin things or make it awkward━ trying to get over him,” you rub at your eyes, pressing as if it’ll erase the memory of what Lando’s grin looks like and how warm it makes you feel when you’re the one who puts it there. "But then he goes and does things like this and it frustrates me but it also gives me hope that maybe he feels the same way, because why would he get so upset about this if he didn’t?”
“I think you should really talk with him,” is all Oscar says, before pushing off from your car and walking away.

━━ a/n: i have mixed opinions on how this part came out. it's a bit filler-y, but trying to include anything more would make this singular part longer than i want it to be. but it's also very late (early?) at the moment and i've been staring at this for hours trying to get it done up as fast as i can, so perhaps that's why. anyway, i hope you enjoy!

you are in love (true love)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
now playing: you are in love (taylor's version)
pairing: magnus chase x fem! reader
word count: 1.9k
summary: 5 people who knew magnus was in love with you before you did + 1 sword
an: FIRST FANFIC LETS FUCKING GOOOOO this took so long to write! I love how I accidentally made it blue themed even though that's magnus's least favorite colour 😭 its ok we all know he's canonically a 1989 girly
fun fact i actually took the first picture! i shit you not I was on a road trip with my family READING MAGNUS CHASE and I look up and see THAT SIGN and i SCRAMBLED to take a picture
content/ warnings: 5+1 things, background blitzstone bcs c'mon they're basically canon, shitty writing, kissing ooo spooky, magnus being a simp, there actually isn't a whole lot of reader in this x reader fic, minor allusions to sex stuff, a lot of swearing, weird use of perspective, i was trying to go for third person limited but magnus is the one it's limited to not reader? but reader is referred to using second person? sorry if it's confusing.
1. samirah al-abbas
  if someone had told magnus a year ago that in a couple month’s time, meeting for coffee weekly with one of his best friends and not getting kicked out of the overpriced coffee shop was going to be the most normal thing in his life, he wouldn’t have believed them. probably would have flipped them off, too, and stole their wallet as he walked away. but he’d like to think that he was a changed man, seeing as he was, in fact, in a hipster café in boston, trying not to make fun of all the fancy menu options. like, seriously? who orders a dragon fruit, pomegranate, and kale smoothie?
he realized he’d been thinking for too long and returned his attention to samirah, sitting across from him and discussing wedding plans for her upcoming marriage to amir as she sipped her latte. he noticed the way her eyes seemed to get brighter, and her entire body language conveyed how excited she was as she talked about him. magnus had a fleeting thought about how good it must feel to love someone so unconditionally like that, and have them love you back just as much. 
as if reading his mind, samirah finished her sentence and studied him, tilting her head as she seemed lost in thought, peering at him like he was a calculus problem she couldn’t quite figure out. 
after a few seconds, magnus broke the silence. 
“alright, it’s getting weird. why’re you looking at me like that?”
samirah snapped out of it, focusing on what he was saying.
“nothing, just… do you think you’ll ever get married?”
jeez, that was a loaded question. magnus narrowly avoided choking on his black coffee, swallowing and burning his throat before answering.
 “sam, i’m dead.”
“so? people get married in valhalla all the time. i have been to a very disproportionate amount of weddings in the two years i worked there.”
“yeah? how many of those end in divorce?”
samirah took a long drink of her coffee, swallowing it slowly as she responded.
“forever is a very long time, and no relationship is perfect, but wouldn’t it be better to have someone to spend that time with?”
“…i guess.” magnus accepted, lost in thought. truthfully, samirah was right, like always. if circumstances were different, if he hadn’t died at sixteen, he could imagine himself getting married. settling down. living in a cabin in the forest with two kids. 
a thought came into his mind, entirely of its own accord, of doing all of that with you. your laugh, your soft hair, the way your lips curled up and your eyes widened when you smile. you’d probably be a great mom.
whoa, what the hell? he should definitely not be thinking about getting married to his friend, what the fuck? that is not normal. 
he pushed the weird thought out of his mind as best he could, gulping his coffee and focusing on the burning in his throat and not what he was just thinking. samirah had gone back to talking about amir, and magnus was not going to think about marrying you any longer.
2. alex fierro
after nearly getting his head cut off by alex’s garrote for the third time that day, magnus needed a break. alex had decided that magnus needed to learn to fight without the help of jack, and it wasn't going too well for him. he collapsed on the bench next to alex, chugging half a bottle of water before even taking a breath. alex rolled her eyes. 
“it’s not that hard, you just aren’t fast enough.”
magnus managed to control himself and not say a snarky comment back, but it was a close call. instead, he ignored her, staring straight ahead and not engaging. unfortunately, you were in his direct line of sight, sparring with mallory only a few metres away. alex picked up on this quickly, nudging his side. 
“you like watching y/n fight, huh?” she teased, smirking. damn, why did she have to be so perceptive?
“what? no. shut up.” magnus replied quickly, trying to hide his blush. “i mean… she’s a good fighter. not like i like her or anything like that.” 
“mhm. suuuure you don’t.” alex replied, definitely not believing him. fuck.
“i’m telling the truth!” magnus protested. god, how was arguing with alex harder than physically fighting her? 
“yeah. did you see her necklace today? pretty, right?”
“she’s not even wearing a neck- fuck.” magnus said instantly, before catching himself. 
“go to hell.”  he swore, glaring at alex, who was grinning at him in a way that reminded him a little too much of her mother. 
“you first.”
      3 + 4. blitzen & hearthstone
“magnus? magnus?”
a pale hand reached in front of magnus face, waving and then snapping its fingers, bringing him back to reality. he blinked and looked around at hearth and blitz, sitting across from him in the dining room of the chase space. hearth took his hand back to sign finally, raising his eyebrows sarcastically.
“your head’s way up in the clouds, kid.” blitz remarked, drumming his short, well manicured fingernails on the table, his silver engagement ring glinting.  he was right. magnus definitely was pretty out of it lately. 
probably thinking about y/n, hearth signed. jeez, why did every conversation he had have to be about you? and no, he most certainly was not thinking about you and your pretty eyes and your delicate hands and the way your ass looked in those jeans you were wearing yesterday… jesus fucking christ, he needed to stop.
 he buried his face in his hands and groaned loudly, then raised his head back up so hearth could read his lips, hoping that his blush wasn’t as visible as it felt. 
“i am not thinking about her.” he lied through his teeth. 
“there’s nothing wrong with having a crush, you know.”
ugh, why did they have to act so much like his dads? 
“i don’t have a crush!”
“kid, you’re a terrible liar. everyone can see the way you stare at that girl. now remember, if you’re doing anything intimate, you gotta use protection…”
that’s it. magnus couldn’t stand up from the table fast enough
 “nope! this conversation is ending right now. good talk!”
5. annabeth chase
magnus and annabeth had been walking around new york for the past three hours, trying to make up for the ten years spent apart.  annabeth had shown him her favorite library, and pointed out a bunch of cool architecture in nearby buildings, with a promise to show him and his friends camp half-blood in the summer.
 they were currently taking a break, stopping for lunch at a falafel place that wasn’t quite as good as fadlan’s, but it was still falafel. magnus was enjoying listening to annabeth talk about her architecture projects– she was taking online classes to prepare for the higher level of new rome university’s program. 
magnus loved listening to her talk about things he didn’t understand. as a child he’d always thought she was a genius, the way she always solved puzzles and math problems easily. ten years later, that theory still held up, hearing her go on about a bunch of terms he didn’t understand.
“sorry, i’m probably boring you to tears. you wanna talk about something else?”
annabeth offered.
“no, it’s fine… i really don’t have a lot going on.” magnus replied, smiling politely.
“come on. there’s gotta be something interesting.” an idea seemed to come to annabeth.
“you have a crush on anybody?”
magnus swallowed. 
“no.”
but he was too slow. those steel gray eyes that matched his own were locked on him like a hawk, or maybe an owl. 
“yes, you do. come on. spill!”
magnus stayed silent. he was not telling his cousin about his crushes, but those metallic eyes stayed locked on him. he eventually gave up. annabeth could be scary when she wanted to be.
“fine. fine. her name’s y/n…”
+1. jack
 it was movie night at the chase space. was magnus ever gonna stop calling it that? no. it was cool. shut up. the credits were rolling on some disney movie that alex had insisted on, and everyone else was slowly but surely making their way to their rooms, yawning as they said their good nights. you had been sitting next to magnus on the couch the whole time, and suffice it to say that he had had some trouble concentrating on the film.  
it was just you and him, you in your nirvana t-shirt and gray sweat shorts, and in that moment, he decided to tell you.
 you got up to leave, waving at him, and in a feat of bravery so incredible it would be studied by historians for centuries to come, magnus managed to work up the nerve to speak up. 
“hey, uh, can i talk to you for a sec?”
“sure? what’s up?” you asked as you sat back down.
jesus, what had he gotten himself into? it’s ok, magnus, you got this. you beat loki in a flyting. you can talk to a pretty girl. 
“uh, i was just thinking… i just…” off to a great start, aren’t we? fuck off, voice in his head. he can do this. he took a deep breath.
“i really like you. you're gorgeous and funny and so insanely smart. i’m an atheist but i’m praying to god you feel the same way. will you be my girlfriend?”
you bit your lip, breaking eye contact as you looked off into the distance. fuck. you were gonna say no and then he was never gonna be able to talk to you again and he was gonna have to change his name and move to canada…
“can i kiss you?” 
what.
there were a million things magnus expected you to say, but that was none of them. he managed to stutter out a simple “please…” and then you leaned forward and your lips were on his and magnus chase died.
this felt more like the end of his life than being knocked off a burning bridge and drowning did. his heart was beating a million times a second, and he seemed to have forgotten how breathing worked. your lips were softer than anything he’d ever felt before.
 he managed to reciprocate a little, mostly acting on instinct, and all he could think about was how astronomically better this was than jackie molotov in the seventh grade.
what was he supposed to do with his hands? he was pretty sure that keeping them at his side was the wrong answer, so he moved one to your waist and the other one to the back of your neck, tangling it gently in your soft hair as his lips moved against yours.
gods, he could have stayed like that until ragnarök, but his stupid sword had to ruin the moment. jack started buzzing on his neck sleepily, seeming to have been woken up ungraciously. he hoped that you couldn’t feel it, but that was pretty unlikely, considering how close you were to him. jeez, he was blushing more and more every time he thought about that. 
eventually, you pulled away, smiling a little. 
“good night, magnus.”
he nodded, unable to form words, and managed to stand up and walk back to his room, wide eyed, operating on autopilot. he walked into his room and immediately collapsed backwards onto the bed, staring at the ceiling without blinking, completely still. not a thought passed through his mind for at least ten minutes, till he finally was able to reach up and pull jack’s pendant off of his necklace.
“dude, what happened to blades before babes!?!”

Load more comments
y/n dropped her phone on the couch, wondering how someone was able to capture a picture of them without even noticing. She then received a message from Ferran.
Ferran <3
you saw the picture right?
yep. how did they even see us
I'm not sure. I'm sorry for that
don't be. it was worth it
i really hope you enjoyed your night as much as I enjoyed mine
I did. a lot <3
I'm glad you did precosia. have a good night pretty girl
you too Fer
y/n smiled, feeling like an idiot at how wide her smile was. She sighed in satisfaction, getting up to her room and getting ready to sleep.
•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•
y/n was woken up by the sound of harsh knocking on the door. She got up confused, at who might be early in the morning.
She opened the door, rubbing her eyes to adjust to the light from outside.
She saw Fernando and Pedri standing there, Fernando looking forced to come and Pedri there with a wide smile on his face.
"you were on a date?!" he asked, making y/n roll her eyes.
She wanted to act as disinterested, while her heart was almost beating out of her chest.
"yeah so what?" she snapped, making Pedri roll his eyes back
"who is he? do I know him?" he asked, stepping inside with Fernando and closing the door behind them.
"it's none of your business and you don't know him" she sassily replied, crossing her arms over her chest and sitting down on the couch next to them.
"who so rude? was your date that bad?" Pedri teased, making her roll her eyes. Fernando nudged Pedri and told him to shut up.
"wanna go out get breakfast with us? Pedri is paying" Fernando said, making y/n look up at them quickly.
"who said I'm paying?" Pedri argued, making Fernando slap the back of his head
"if Pedri is paying count me in" y/n smiled teasingly at Pedri before going to her room to get ready.
•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•
"tough day?" y/n said to the phone
"yep. we've got the second leg of the match in 2 days and the coach is not taking it easy" Ferran sighed, making y/n smile.
"it's okay. i hope you guys make it to the semis" she said.
"yeah me too, are you going to be there?" he asked
"definitely. me and few of the girls are going" she replied, making him smile.
"then i better not embarrass myself in front of my girlfriend" he chuckled, making y/n blush deeply even though he can't see.
She's still new to all this girlfriend/boyfriend thing, but she can't deny that she was enjoying it.
"don't worry you won't" she laughed.
•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•
The final whistle. 4_1 to PSG after Barcelona won on their stadium. y/n slumped down in her seat, seeing how every player was disappointed, and how some of them were crying. She felt bad for the youngsters, Lamine and Cubarsi, who were in tears.
She saw Ferran on the ground, covering his face with his hands. All she wanted to do was go and hug him.
She saw some of the wives going down to the pitch, so she followed them, telling her teammates that she was gonna see her brother.
She walked down to the pitch, looking for Pedri first, when she saw him she gave him a big hug, telling him everything will be okay.
He didn't seem to want to talk, so he let go of her and started to walk away. She turned to Ferran, who was still sat on the ground with his face covered.
She walked to him, looking around to see that the stadium was almost empty now, and half of the players were out already.
y/n sat down next to him, wrapping her arms around his shoulder tightly. He looked up, seeing his girlfriend, smiling sadly and hugging her back tightly. They sat their on the grass, their arms around each other in a warm hug.
"I'm sorry I disappointed you." he mumbled, making y/n pull from their hug to look at him
"fer... you didn't and could never disappoint me. it was gonna happen as soon as Ronald got that red card. It wasn't your fault nor any of the other players fault. you'll do better next year" she spoke softly, while he cried silently.
Ferran then got up, leaving y/n sat on the ground. He helped her up and motioned with his eyes towards Pedri that was looking at them now.
y/n's heart dropped as she saw the look on Pedri's face.
"I'm gonna go talk to him" she mumbled, leaving Ferran standing there, hoping he didn't cause much trouble with his girlfriend.
"hey you good?" she asked Pedri, afraid to hear his response
"why were you with Ferran?" he asked rather rudely, his eyes glaring at her then at Ferran that was now close behind her
"I just wanted to make sure he's okay like I did with you" she murmured, not really knowing how to lie
"why him? are you friends with him or something? or is there something I don't know?" he raised an eyebrow, making y/n look at him immediately
"what? no! there's nothing like that, we're just friends. didn't you introduce me to him so I can have friends?" she asked, realizing he was almost believing her.
"yeah...I guess" he mumbled, before telling her goodbye and walking down to the locker room.
Ferran then appeared behind y/n.
"everything okay?" he asked, worried Pedri night be angry at his twin or something
"yeah yeah. that was close though" y/n said with a sigh.
"you shouldn't have come down to the pitch" he said.
y/n looked at him, wondering if he meant he didn't want her there to comfort him
"oh sorry. i just wanted to make sure you're okay" she mumbled, feeling like she was bothering him with her presence.
Ferran sensed her shift in mood, and realized he should've chosen his words differently.
"wait i didn't mean that I didn't want you there I meant that Pedri could've known or something. I'm glad you're here y/n" he said, a small smile on his face.
She smiled back at him, mentally slapping herself for doubting his intentions.
"you go to the lockers. come to mine after you finish everything. I'll make you some food to relax" she said. He smiles gratefully, hugging her before leaving down the tunnel
•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•
"someone was down on the pitch and filmed us. the video has gone viral now" Ferran sighed.
y/n shrugged, she didn't care what the media thinks or sees if Pedri knows that they're friends. The fans ship everyone together so as long as Pedri doesn't know, it doesn't matter.
"it doesn't matter as long as Pedri doesn't suspect a thing...which he kinda did today" she mumbled.
"sneaking out is fun and stuff...but I want to be able to show you off y/n, why can't we just tell Pedri about us and end all of this?" he asked, sitting down on the countertop as y/n was preparing their dinner
"you don't get it Ferran. it's not that easy" she sighed, avoiding looking at him.
Ferran got up and stood behind y/n, putting his arms around her waist and laying his head on her shoulder. He pressed a few kisses on her cheek.
"why not baby?" he whispered
baby. it was his first time calling her that, and she felt like she belonged to him by just hearing that.
"he wouldn't take it nicely" she whispered back, trying to focus on the food she was making instead of his fingertips that were dancing on her waist under her shirt.
"so what? he'll be upset for a while and then he'll get over it" Ferran said again. y/n dropped the knife in her hand and turned to look at Ferran.
His hands stayed on her waist, while he looked down at her, pulling her closer to his body.
"you don't know Pedri as much as I do. he can stop talking to both of us forever if he didn't like it. And I really don't want that for both of us" she said, putting her hands on his chest to steady herself.
"what if he didn't mind it? there's no harm in asking" he said.
y/n exhaled deeply, removing his hands from her waist and turning back her focus to the food she was preparing.
Ferran noticed that she was upset, and he didn't want that. He pressed a kiss on her head and wrapped his arms around her shoulder, whispering an apology in her ear.
"it's fine just...please stop asking about it before we figure a way out of this" she mumbled, hearing him hum in response

Hi! Anon from before who asked about fluidity and such, I have another question: How do you learn to angle heads / do different perspectives?
Did you take classes, use 3D models, or something else?
So sorry for all the questions, I really want to get better at angles and posing and such - facial expressions are a breeze for me, but I just can't keep proportions, anatomy, or poses right in my head.
TL,dr, how did you learn about all this stuff?
Don't be sorry! Asking questions is how u learn! Lil disclaimer that i'm sorry in advance if this answer seems kinda vapid and lackadaisical :")
I've never taken art classes of any kind in my life. A lot of what I know is from observing how other artists draw and tweaking their processes to something that'll suit my workflow and style better. I admittedly don't use 3D models as often as I should, but they speed up the process IMMENSELY. Sometimes i'll load up a model posing program and use it for just the hands/fingers LOL. It's actually helped me be more aware of how to segment parts of the body so I can "memorize" them a bit better. I actually cannot picture most things in my head properly, so I struggle with keeping tabs on proportions and angles of shapes and poses mentally too 😭
A fun lil trick I do to help with head angles tho that might help is i'll draw a "sheet" of paper over my main head form:
Tumblr media
For some reason, i've found that this helps me visualize where the face goes and where it fits within a 3D space. As long as i know the general direction the oc is facing, I can bend and stretch stuff to fit as need be. IDK it's a simple way for me to keep track while drawing, and pretty effective too! 👇🏽
Tumblr media
ok these are sloppy n off model a bit, but hopefully you can see what i'm getting at ghjsdfg. I've found making the "sheet" bigger/smaller to suit whatever you're drawing can help narrow down the angle better if you're struggling. Thinking of the construction of shapes and how they sit in a 3D space is helpful too. Most art programs have perspective rulers that you can use to keep a kind of guide of where your drawing is sitting on a perspective plane/grid. I use them when trying to do more dynamic postures!
Other than that, I literally just google/youtube whatever it is i'm trying to work on and click through as many resources as I can. Make notes of what works for me, what doesnt, what I can pick apart and reconstruct. I got my start in art by tracing other people's art onto printer paper when i was younger (never shared 'em, obvs) before learning people posted step-by-step processes of how they draw on dA (it's how I learned what "guidelines" where and how to use them in sketching) and using those. I spent a lot of my more formative years just mimicking other people's drawing habits and quirks until I found a set that worked for me, and expanded on that with just messing around in my spare time. Sometimes the only thing that helps is working through it until I get a result I like.
If you are looking for a more technical approach and wouldn't mind some critique on your stuff, I recommend a site called Drawabox.com ! I've never personally used it, but I have artist friends who have, and while it does cost a fee to access some of the video lessons, there are still a bit of free resources you can take a peek on that might help!!
SORRY FOR THIS LAME ANSWER HFGSHDF I have a very flippant approach to my art. Work smart, not hard as I always say 👌🏽👏🏽
Good luck!!

Hi~ It’s me, 🍟 !!
I just wanted to say I enjoyed every bit of all the fics for your 500 follower event so far~ And thank you soooo much for writing my requests !! Knowing you wrote them based on what I requested make them extra extra special for me !!
Tbh, I didn’t expect you to follow through my requests😭 And to actually follow YJ for the first bunch of them~ I was totally okay if you thought any other member suit the line better hehe
I also didn’t expect you to take my ldr vibe comment for the “you feel like home to me” line and incorporate it into the fic (home will come home soon). And I enjoyed what you did with my last request with “is that my shirt?” so much !! The whole scenario for the fic (distraction) was very funny, cute, and enjoyable~ And the situation just makes so much sense~ I was anticipating which member you’d pick actually so I didn’t look at your event master list and just waited for the post hehe
Same for the fic with “was that your first kiss?” (perfectly spontaneous) !! I loved how the whole shenanigan of preparing but ending up happening when not planned just makes sooo much sense~ The whole scenario, actions, setting, etc matches with the member so well !!
Plus can I just say I love how heartwarming and vulnerable you made the fics for the lines “you always see the good in people. even me” (cloudy days) and “relationships are built on trust, and i trust you” (anchor of trust) but in like two perspectives of the relationship. One from the s/o and one from the member’s perspective. I just love it cause it just makes sense in a relationship that each one has their days and it shows the vulnerable side of the person and it’s very heartwarming to see the comfort you can get from the other party🥹
Your writing using the lines are for real beyond my imagination !! The fics are so so so good !! I will keep and cherish the fics from my requests very dearly for sure❤️ I must have you know, I’ve been reading each and every fic like they’re part of a playlist HAHAHA
Mci bcp !!! Thank you so very much❤️
Merci mille fois ! Thank you a million times❤️
- 🍟
(PS I can’t believe I have my own little place in your acc as your 🍟 anon OMG🥹 It’s sooo cute and it’s such an honour tbh❤️
Also sorry for the long message but idk how else I could tell you how much I appreciate your efforts and your fics and your acc)
oh my goodness??? where–HOW–WHERE DO I BEGIN IN ANSWERING THIS??? first off, lemme just put a couple of pictures to show you how this message made me feel:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i can't even explain how happy this makes me feel? i just :") reading your message and hearing how it made you feel, what you loved about it, and your thoughts sending it (not that you had expected anything!) and knowing that it somehow met with your expectations or that you've enjoyed it does WONDERS to my heart :"))))
not to mention, uni has been kicking my butt a little bit recently and I'm bouncing back but this definitely takes the cake on making me feel loads better about my writing i am incredibly humbled and floored your honour.
i don't think you understand just how fulfilling it is and rewarding to hear feedback like this? most people just send in requests and that's kind of the end of it (and not that there's anything wrong with that!) but for you to send these requests in, WAIT until i was done with ALL of your requests just so you can come back and write an essay like this THANKING me and sending your regards like this??? DO YOU WANT ME TO MARRY YOU BECAUSE I WILL–
but on a serious note, thank you. i will gladly tattoo this message to my head and remember this on the days i ever doubt my writing. you are truly a gem. and lastly, here's an accurate representation of how i looked like when i saw your message first thing in the morning:

hi eris! can't say i have much love for aou or civil war but i'm glad they make you happy. barbie is a really good answer, honestly it feels so perfect that i can't believe they haven't already done something like that lol. also little mermaid!!!! that would be so fun. also thank u for reminding me of the dreamworks holiday specials, i should say that reminds me that one of my favorite pieces of holiday media is gift of the night fury. also since you brought it up: i should start mining for info to make ur present at the end of the month, so if u have any starstruck thoughts that you haven't had a chance to share please share them below (or any other disney channel media!!! neither of us should be limiting ourselves here) also side note: since i've now been paying close attention to your blog, i've noticed you talking about sooo many shared interests but i can't comment because i don't want to give myself away :( maybe on christmas lol
oh sorry i misspoke, civil war is one of my least favorite movies of all time i just think civil war is good tony stark characterization and aou is good steve rogers and characterization but everything else makes me lose faith in cinematic storytelling 💔
i don’t know why but i think about those dreamworks shorts all the time 😭 they’re so cute and dumb and like a greta way to blend media
oof such a loaded question i always have too many thoughts on, well, everything but especially starstruck i guess because it’d take too long otherwise i’ll tell you some powerpoint night ideas i’ve had but have too much ✨ social anxiety ✨ to follow through on:
All The Little Details In Starstruck That Drive Me Hashtag Insane: i know i’ve said this before but i’m such a details person that i think no matter how small those extra details in movies and tv shows are they really make the whole thing better and starstruck has so many! my favorite being the photographer at the beach that took photos of crying jessica leaving the phone booth and christopher looking at her but like he pauses and you realize while he may have told people about it he never sold the pictures! the first pictures of jessica released to the public is like a week later and it’s of her leaving her grandmother’s so it’s just!! idk the little things and i really could talk about them all night (i also want to one day follow through on my tiktok threat)
Have You Ever Seen Taylor Swift and Christopher Wilde in the Same Place at Once?: i don’t know who justin bieber is christopher wilde/ starstruck is actually based solely around the toxic media and building hype surrounding taylor swift, especially the unrealistic annoying romance aspect
Troy Bolton: Disney Channel’s Most Well Developed Character of All Time (also a brief examination of songs portraying his inner most thoughts which is why they’re ‘always’ singing): okay basically the title but yeah i have so many thoughts on him as a character and the way music is used throughout the story not as a storytelling method (like many musicals) but more as a coping or thought process method like in crazy ex-girlfriend
Bunk’d But It’s Actually Good: while i think bunkd is a grade a dumpster fire i do have ideas to make it actually funny (this is just a throw away one solely for the memes)
Why I Should Legally Be Allowed to Punch Christopher Wilde in the Face: it’s one slide and it’s just a screen cap of the ‘I don’t know anyone named jessica olson’ interview
Is Descendants a Good Commentary or Am I Just Bisexual: the answer is both but also neither
and these are just names i’ve come up with:
“Who Would I Legally Be Obligated to Cyberbully if Starstruck 2 Was Released”, “Starstruck Is The Worst Movie I’ve Ever Seen”, “The Anti-Himbos of Disney Channel”, “Would Alex Russo Survive In Modern Media: A Commentary on Flawed Characters”, “Why Ben from Descendants is the Love of my Life”, ect
also if it makes you feel better i have no time to critically think about who has me so i would love to talk about things we have in common 👀 (i don’t have a lot of opportunities to actually DISCUSS the things i like so i’d probably be too excited to over analyze it)
(p.s. sorry for the essay alakalsjksjsjdjd)
