𓇻 I’M A FEMINIST, OBVIOUSLY, BUT I WOULDN’T REALLY MIND HIM SAVING ME.
▸ PAIRING.. class president!yang jungwon x outcast!fem!reader
▸ SYNP. jang y/n hated yang jungwon. perfect, loved by everybody, class president yang jungwon. people only liked him because he was a man and he was charismatic. however, when she’s being picked on by the girls at school, yang jungwon comes to her rescue, and weirdly, she didn’t mind it?
▸ GENRE. enemies to lovers (it’s one sided though, yn just hates jw😭) angst, mentions of bullying, mentions of sexism, fluff
author’s note: this is based off of olivia rodrigo’s unreleased song! This was honestly so much fun to write and it took me about 3 days cause I fell violently ILL like the day after I started writing😭 As usual, REBLOGS and COMMENTS are so greatly appreciated <33
Tumblr media
Jang Y/N was what people called an outcast. Although she was pretty and had the grades, she heavily disliked half of her class, which in turn, didn’t exactly make her very popular.
“I hate him.” She says as she shoves a spoonful of rice into her mouth. Her only friend was her sister, Wonyoung, who told her that she shouldn’t be so negative all the time.
“Who, Jungwon?” Wonyoung asks, frowning. “Yah Y/N, you can’t hate him forever. He’s nothing but nice to you.”
“I don’t care,” Y/N mumbles angrily, putting away her lunch. “Wonyo, people only like him because he’s a man who can say a few charming words. He smiles and at least half of our class falls onto their knees or something.”
Wonyoung chokes at her sister’s comparison, and can’t help but let out a little laugh. “I’m just saying Y/nie, you can’t just despise him because he seems perfect to the naked eye. In fact, I say become friends with him. It’ll be good for you.”
Y/N shuts down the idea right away, much to Wonyoung’s dismay.
“I am just saying,” Wonyoung stands up, finished with her lunch. “I mean, don’t you find it sad? That you eat lunch everyday with your sister instead of eating with friends or a boyfriend?”
“No,” Y/N says, frowning. “I like eating lunch with you Wonyo.”
“Hm, I guess.”
The Jang sisters lock arms, strolling to their next class. They miss the longing glance that Yang Jungwon sends towards Y/N’s direction, already too far gone into the Decelis Academy hallway.
‏‏‎ ‎
Unfortunately for Y/N, she had her leadership class with Jungwon, where they would discuss things like student politics and how to better the school so that Decelis could stay at its rightful place of number one on private academy rankings.
It was stupid, Y/N thought, Decelis shouldn’t even be close to number one, this school was filled with a bunch of spoilt children who were obsessed with the idea of money and power.
“Is there a problem, Miss. Jang?” The teacher asks, noticing the little scoffs she was adding each time Jungwon spoke about an initiative he wanted to add.
“No,” Y/N shrugs. “I just think Yang Jungwon’s new initiative is just a waste of time. It's not going to solve anything.”
Jungwon smirks, something that Y/N so desperately wants to wipe the floor with. “Y/N, always the critic of my ideas. Very well, let’s hear your brilliant solution.”
She rolls her eyes. Of course Yang Jungwon wanted to pretend to remain civil, if he had blown up on her, it would’ve tarnish his reputation, and Yang Jungwon would be nothing without his reputation, right?
“Instead of your one-size-fits-all approach method, we need personalized mentorship programs. Each student faces unique challenges, and your initiative doesn't address that.”
Jungwon smiles. “Well I suppose you’re right. But perhaps if you actually joined the initiative, you'd understand its effectiveness.”
Y/N grits her teeth, not enjoying how much Yang Jungwon was enjoying this. “Oh, right, because following the herd blindly is the key to success? Unlike half of Decelis’ population, I prefer independent thinking.”
The boy leans closer in, face almost touching the girl. “Sometimes collaboration is the key to progress, Y/N. Try it sometime.”
The two students make eye contact until Y/N breaks, finally pulling her eyes away.
“As usual, Yang Jungwon always has to be right.” She mumbles under her breath. “God, please save me from being in this class any longer,”
‏‏‎ ‎
Y/N throws her backpack on the floor as soon as she steps into her house, not caring about the expensive computer her grandmother had bought her last Christmas that was stuffed inside. Her parents were in the kitchen, discussing something in hushed whispers, almost as if it was top secret.
Always being the curious child, she leans onto the wall that separated the living room and kitchen, trying to make out what the topic was about.
“I’m just worried honey,” she can hear her mom say as her dad rubs her back comfortingly. “Y/N doesn’t have a lot of friends at that school, Wonyoung told me about it. You know she only hangs out with her sister and that’s it?”
“I mean, is it really that bad that she only hangs out with Wonyoung? She’s always been quiet, I think we’ve just got to respect that. She’s an excellent student anyway, there’s no harm in having little friends.”
Although her parents truly just wanted the best for her, Y/N felt like a complete loser by how they were going about it.
She quickly rushed to her room, biting her lip in annoyance at how everybody seemed to have an opinion about her life. She was happy with how it was going, and she didn’t care that her only friend was her sister, Wonyoung was a sweetheart and lived with her, it was a built in best friend for life.
“Just you wait,” Y/N huffs, sharpening her pencil. “I’m gonna go to university, leave this place, and I won’t have to hear about any of these kids ever again.”
‏‏‎
Y/N woke up the next day with a red eye, probably from crying last night despite telling herself she didn’t care.
She cared, a lot.
Romanticizing being alone was fun until she realized that she was truly all alone, with no friends to lean on.
“Is that Jang Y/N?”
Park Jiwon. The devil herself. She was evil as she was pretty, and she had no problem making Y/N’s life a living hell.
“Where’s Wonyoung? Did your own sister finally get tired of you?” Her little group of minions laugh as if it was the funniest thing ever, and Y/N tries and stops herself from giving them all a swing to the face.
“No, but I’m sure you’re used to that feeling, right Jiwon?”
“Oh you little b—”
“Jiwon, you can’t hit her! You’ll get suspended and it’ll go on your permanent record.” Her friend says, which makes the girl straighten up right away.
“You’re lucky Jang,” the girl snarls. “But yah, what were you thinking? Talking back to Jungwon? He’s so smart and handsome, dedicating his time to make initiatives for the school. You should be more grateful.”
She and her minions get so close that they practically push Y/N back onto the locker, suffocating her with their glares.
“Hey, what’s going on here?” The voice of Jungwon doesn’t go unnoticed by a single girl, who, all but Y/N, straighten up their hair when they realize he’s behind them.
“We’re just talking, right Y/N?” Jiwon says, pinching onto the girl tightly.
“Really? It doesn’t seem like it.” Jungwon rolls his eyes. “Park Jiwon, don’t make me give you detention for picking on other students. It doesn’t make you attractive.”
The girl gasps, immediately letting Y/N go as her face heats up in embarrassment.
“I wasn’t—”
“Just go.” With one point of a finger, Yang Jungwon got Park Jiwon and her minions out of the hallway, leaving Y/N and him alone.
“You okay?” He asks her, eyes concerned.
“Thank you,” she breathes out. “You didn’t have to do that.”
“Why didn’t I?” He raises his eyebrows. “You were getting picked on.”
“Well, I’m not the nicest to you.” The girl says, suddenly embarrassed. “At all, actually. So thank you Jungwon, really.”
“Ah,” the boy smiles. “It’s nothing. I don’t hate you if that’s what you think, I think you have a brilliant mind just like me.”
And for the first time since she’s stepped into the school, Jang Y/N finds herself liking Yang Jungwon, and not just for his looks.
‏‏‎
“Y/N!” The loud voice of Yang Jungwon doesn’t go by Wonyoung, who gives her sister a smirk as she slightly pushes back her shoulder.
“Wonder why he’s coming,” she teases, which makes Y/N scrunch up her nose in annoyance.
“Would you like to come with me to this new bread place?” He asks, hands on his knees as he catches his breath. “Sorry—I ran all the way from the cabinet office to here.”
“It’s alright,” Y/N giggles, which makes Wonyoung’s eyes pop out of their sockets because she swears she never heard that sound coming from her sister’s mouth before. “I’d love to Jungwon.”
“Great! I’ll uh.. I’ll see you later!”
Wonyoung turns to face Y/N as soon as Jungwon leaves, giving her the biggest grin ever. “What was that?!”
“Let’s just say, I don’t hate Yang Jungwon anymore.” Y/N smiles, laughing as she watches Wonyoung’s jaw practically drop to the ground.
‏‏‎
“It’s cold, isn’t it?” Jungwon says as he and Y/N walk to the new bread place.
“Yes,” Y/N puffs out, “I should’ve brought a jacket.”
Before she knew it, Jungwon already takes off his jacket and wraps it around the girl’s shoulder.
“Jungwon,” she whines, “then you’ll be cold!”
“It’s alright really!” He laughs, giving her a big smile. “I’m practically invincible to cold. Was just asking because you seemed to be freezing.”
“You’re sweet,” she says, looking down at her feet. “I feel really guilty for trying to one up up all the time or prove you wrong. I just hate it, you know?”
“Hate what?”
“You might not realize it but a lot of people don’t want to hear what I say because I’m a woman, and that’s it. Just because I’m a woman. Like sometimes, I have ideas just as brilliant and changing as yours, but everybody says I’m complaining and over analyzing. When you say it, with your handsome face and clear voice, everybody’s suddenly entranced, and they’re so interested in school politics.”
“So you think I’m handsome?”
Y/N rolls her eyes, pushing back Jungwon slightly as he laughs.
“I’m kidding, Y/N. I know what you mean now. I’m sorry that I can’t change how people view and perceive things, but I want you to know that I listen to your ideas, that I care. You might not realize this either but whenever you’re talking, I always listen. Like your initiative about bringing better programs into the school, I listened through the whole thing because I just—I’m inlove with the way you articulate things and the way you speak. If I was half as good at speaking my mind like you were, I’d be unstoppable. You’re a great person, Y/N, and I’m so glad I’m able to see that.”
The way Yang Jungwon speaks about her makes Y/N want to cry and smother him in a hug, which she does a second later by bringing him into a bone crushing hug.
“Thank you Jungwon.” She says, face in his neck. “Thank you.”
“Of course.” He feels like he’s out of breath by how close the two of them were, his heartbeat racing by each second that passed. “I’d do anything for you, Y/N.”
‏‏‎
“Hey!” Y/N is practically used to seeing Yang Jungwon come up to her everyday now, the two even spending lunch together every two days.
“What’s up Yang?” She says, noticing a packet of papers in his hand.
“You know your feedback on my initiative? Your personalized mentorship program idea! The headmaster really liked it and he’s implementing it starting next semester with your name as the credit on it!”
Y/N’s eyes widen in joy, shrieking as her hands unconsciously come in contact with Jungwon’s, the two holding both of each other’s hands tightly as they jumped in happiness.
“You’re amazing Yang Jungwon!” She says giddily, “you really are.”
The two of them stop to stare at one another for a brief second before Jungwon finds himself leaning in, closing the gap between their lips.
When they pull away, the smiles on their faces never fades, Jungwon’s dimple ever so prominent.
“I love you,” Y/N breathes out. “My wonderful class president.”
And although Y/N is a feminist, obviously, she wouldn’t mind a man like Yang Jungwon saving her, for he taught her what love was like, and that she should never ever settle for less.

/nf to do tho ty for reading!!! <3<3
OMG OMG HELLO WELCOME I HOPE YOURE DOING GOOD YIPPEE
SO FUN FACT I WAS VERY LIKE NEUTRAL TO RADIOSTATIC BUT TONIGHT HAS BEEN (HAHAH GET IT) AN ADVENTURE AND THIS ROAD HAS BEEN SUCH A BLAST <3 THOSE TWO FUCKERS ARE SO INSTIGATIVE ITS CRAZY.
I KNOWWWW THIS AS A FIC WOULD GO C R A Z Y!!!!! IDK IF ANYONE HERE WRITE FOR VOX AND ALASTOR AND PERHAPS DOES COMMISSIONS BUT I WILL PAY!!!! PLEASE HIT ME UP OR ILL PROBABLY GO TAKE A PEAK FOR MYSELF TMR <3 AS LONG AS THATS OK ANON. (I WILL ABSOLUTELY LET IT BE POSTED AS LONG AS THE AUTHOR IS OK WITH IT WHICH USUALLY THEY ARE!!!!) IM GONNA TAKE SOME CREATIVE LIBERTIES AS I TYPICALLY DO HEADCANONS!
IM NOT USUALLY A CHARACTER + CHARACTER GIRLY SO BEAR WITH ME BUT I WILL DO MY VERY BEST!!!! HOPEFULLY I CAN DO THIS JUSTICE! IT WILL BE RANDOM HCS THAT ARE UNRELATED TOO. MY BRAIN IS A MESSY PLACE HWBSHWDBD
OK SO LIKE I KINDA MENTIONED, THEY BOTH LOOOOVE TO JUST GET UNDER PEOPLES SKIN. LOVE IT!!! ESPECIALLY ALASTOR. HES SUCH AN ASS (affectionate)
I’D EVEN SAY HE’S KIND OF AN INSTIGATIVE LER???? BRO IS DOING EVERYTHING IN HIS POWER TO GET TO TICKLE VOX LIKEEE IDK IF THAT EVEN MAKES SENSE BUT I KNOW ITS TRUE. HE WILL CASUALLY WIGGLE HIS FINGERS IN CONVERSATION, TWEAK HIS RIBS FROM BEHIND, LITTLE THINGS LIKE THAT. WELL THEYRE NOT LITTLE. ESPECIALLY NOT TO VOX WHO IS SO FLUSTERED BY IT… ITS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING
BUT! VOX HAS STARTED TO FIGURE IT OUT. AS HE IS ALSO ONE WHO LOVEEES TO GET UNDER SKIN, HE DECIDES HE’LL DO EVERYTHING TO TRIGGER A LER MOOD IN ALASTOR. IF HE CAN TELL HE ALREADY HAS ONE, HE FINDS WAYS TO SUBTLY (WE ALL KNOW HE ISNT SUBTLE THOUGH) LEAVE A SPOT UNPROTECTED. BUT ALASTOR DOESNT WANT TO GIVE HIM THE SATISFACTION!!! HE TRIES SO HARD TO NOT GIVE IN TO VOX BC HE “WANTED TO BE THE ONE IN CONTROL” AND NOW HE ISNT AND HES #PISSED
ALSO VOX ABSOLUTELY IS HORRIFIED OF VULNERABILITY. YET HE IS ABLE TO MOVE PAST IT WITH ALASTOR HERE. SOMEHOW HE ISNT AS WORRIED ANYMORE. MAYBE HE KNOWS ALASTOR WILL REACT. HE LOVES THAT SO VERY MUCH.
AS FOR THE SPECIFIC PROMPT, OH THAT IS SO REAL!!!! ABSOLUTELY YES!!!
I DONT WRITE GOOD ROMANCE BUT LIKE UGH IMAGINE IT NOW. Alastor definitely just got himself to the V’s tower and was planning on fucking with Vox only to see he had already been kinda pissed off. Alastor wouldn’t be as satisfied if he knew he didn’t cause the frustration. He realized he could just stir the pot again. Problem solved, and what better way to solve it than using his weakness against him.. being tickled.
I’m being a little silly but genuinely Vox is so ticklish. Like most ticklish person in hell would go to him if it were an official title. That’s what I’m thinking. That being said, Alastor also knows how quickly he could get him to crumble… but wouldn’t it be more fun to take it slow.
Vox notices his presence almost immediately. He tried to ignore it as he feels his face get warm. He can’t fuck this up. He takes a deep breath and turns around. “Why hello, Alastor! What brings you to our building this evening?” He said in a semi newcaster voice. He wasn’t ready to drop the act
“Well Vox, I came here for a reason of my own but then I walked by your office and you looked so sad!” He began to walk closer to Vox. “You know, t they say you’re never fully dressed without a smile!”
Vox let out a laugh that was quite clearly untruthful. “Yes Alastor I am aware! I was alone in here and so I figured I’d just save up some energy. I’m sure you understand.”
“Quite frankly I don’t,” Alastor paused, “I think maybe I could help you get that smile back.”
Vox didn’t even have to think. He knew Alastor meant he was going to tickle him. You could ask Velvette. She’s seen those two in tickle fights that lasted for DAYS. she knows what they’re capable of, or more so what Alastor is capable of.
Vox puts up a fight for maybe a couple seconds but he just loves tickles more than he can play pretend that he doesn’t <3
It works out well for them both, Alastor gets to fuck around with Vox and well, Vox gets his shit rocked!!! And he loves that more than a lot of things.
OK IM GONNA CUT IT OFF HERE BUT PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COME BACK!!!! IM ALWAYS DOWN TO HEAR WHAT PEOPLE ARE THINKING!! MAYBE ID DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS AGAIN OR LIKE ADD ONTO THIS!!! BUT I AM JUST ALL OVER THE PLACE CURRENTLY HEHE. I HOPE THESE ARE ENJOYABLE!!! (LOWKEY I WANNA ADD MORE TO THISSSS MAYBE TMR MAYBE TMR WE’LL SEE)
apologies if anything is ooc, i just do this for funsies <3
THANK YOU FOR THIS ASKK

GENSHIN MEN AS YOUR PERSONAL BODYGUARD — HEIZOU & KAZUHA
Tumblr media
bodyguard!au
prompt: you are the daughter/son of a powerful and influential CEO which makes you a delicious target in the eyes of your father’s competitors for blackmail thus, you have to be guarded at all times
characters: heizou, kazuha x gn!reader
➽ btw good luck to everyone pulling for kazuha and heizou !! heizuha wanters will be heizuha havers <33
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
✧ ┊ shikanoin heizou
Tumblr media
playful bodyguard
sometimes you wonder how he even got the job
you used to find him annoying and “unprofessional” due to his chill and childlike demeanor and it is usually distracting
he likes teasing you lightheartedly and making you laugh in private
a lil’ flirty
he calls you “sweetie” and winks at you when he gets giddy 
but as time passed by, you learned to grow on him as his playful personality helped you cope with your stress and realized that that alone is enough to uplift you
apparently good at reading your thoughts and emotions
sometimes it freaks you out how accurately he can relay what's going on in your mind
he can tell when you’re sad and understands what you’re thinking and feeling without you having to tell him, which honestly felt refreshing having a father who is a busy man whom you always have to do your best just to hog his attention
has good intuition 
he’s saved you countless times from investors who he had a “bad feeling about”
at first you thought it was silly until you did a background check and found out one of your investors was secretly a wanted criminal for tax fraud
he generally just saves you from any harmful situation due to his intuition
he knows his boundaries and doesn’t pry on your business but damn he has helped you solve your problems multiple times
you started taking him seriously when you found out he was a professional martial artist while protecting you from perverts
then he stood up, fixed his tie, and smiled at you and escorted you as if nothing just happened
when you encounter difficult people to deal with, he will put a hand around your waist, pull you close, and get in between you and the other party 
he’ll gently reassure you and escort you to your limousine, telling you to wait for him 
but you just know someone’s about to get their ass beaten
he’s adaptable and can be many kinds of people depending on your situation: a friend, a partner in crime, and if you’re up for it, a plus one (or more *wink*) 
✧ ┊ kaedehara kazuha
Tumblr media
gentle bodyguard
he really gives off such a comforting aura that you find yourself relaxing when he’s around the moment he gives you a gentle smile
he has a soft spoken voice that immediately puts you at ease when you’re stressed
he takes his job seriously and follows all your orders obediently 
very empathetic 
he’s really good at discerning your emotions and always comes up with ways to comfort you 
at some point he just became your personal therapist too
sometimes when he’s on guard duty, you can hear him quietly muttering haikus to pass the time
it’s a cute hobby of his
he got really flustered though when you told him about it and suggested he would gladly stop that habit if it distracted you
but you reassured him that his poetry was beautiful and soon he was sharing some of his best ones with you
ironically has soft hands 
but behind his gentle demeanor was a deadly samurai
you wouldn’t admit it but at some point you did underestimate his combat skills until he deadass just pulled out a sword, eyes glowing with anger, and slayed the whole board room when they started harassing you
normally you would’ve freaked out and have him fired on the spot but he was oh so beautiful and graceful as he did so
he sheathed his sword, not a single drop of blood tainting him and you 
then he looked back at you with those gentle gentle eyes
Tumblr media
➽ this is just a little something i wrote for heizou’s first banner and kazuha first rerun! goodluck with your pulls and thanks for reading <3

"and this has nothing to do with the plume of smoke rising from... oh, just about where your lab was, last i checked?" "shut the fuck up"
our plot begins on edward's doorstep! i'm still trying to figure out how i want to format all of this so um... bare with me! but this is what i'm doing for now because i don't have the patience for comics. story introduction below !!
after the world ended (not actually; although gotham had collapsed into ruin, the rest of the world was quite content ignoring their existence. let the city eat itself alive, they reasoned, and the problem would solve itself.) edward found himself incredibly, mind-numbingly bored. with everyone making chaos and scrambling for power, there’s no audience to his crime, and no payoff. money is obsolete, he already has all the power he needs with essentially a monopoly on tech and repair, and there’s no thrill of the chase without a functioning gcpd. he needs someone to BOTHER.
and who better than his old friend (read: guy who wants him dead) jonathan crane to bother while everything else goes to shit! so he heads over to jonathan's last known residence and proposes an alliance. jon tells him where he can stick it, and slams the door in his face.
then, about a week later, jonathan's entire laboratory is blown sky-high. jon has no idea who did it, (a lot of people hate him enough for that) and if ed has a clue he's not going to say a word. but nonetheless jonathan is now homeless and in dire straits! all of his supplies were destroyed, half of his work didn't make it out of the fire, and they're having a pretty bad goddamn day, alright, so their judgement isn't the greatest right now!
his first thought is the sirens. ivy is pretty much his only friend in gotham, but the sirens are at full occupancy right now with plenty of their own problems to solve, and jon knows ivy: she'll just tell him to suck it up and figure it out
again, no one else in the city likes him, so he's pretty much out of luck. until he remembers a... certain someone. and jon hates the idea. he really, really hates it. but they're down on their luck and if they want a chance at finding their footing and saving what's left of their hard work, they need a place to stay, and fast.
so he shows up covered in ash on edward nygma's doorstep, to request a second chance at that offer. edward laughs in his face, obviously, but lets him in nonetheless! he reasons that he could use the entertainment around the house, anyway.
neither of them have any idea what they're getting themselves into, but don't worry! the horrors are just around the corner <3

Hellooo!!! Could I request a Ciel x Fem!Reader where Reader is extremely intelligent and witty. Like she is so smart brooo. She reads HUGE books and can quote almost anything from any book, can solve any math problem, and is literally just a fucking genius. She’s very quiet and very observant too. Please ignore if needed, no pressure at all!<3
love ya!🤍
Love you too! And just so y’all know, this is how I am irl, but it depends. If I’m with people who I am comfortable with, you can tack on sarcastic to the end of the description. We’re also gonna ignore his engagement to Lizzie for the sake of this request.
Tumblr media
Ciel Phantomhive
You both probably met at one of the Queen’s royal balls. As the youngest member of a noble family, you had to. It was mostly so your father could find another noble family of the same rank who had an unwed and unbetrothed son for you to be afianced to.
When Ciel saw you, he had to admit that you looked absolutely breathtaking. Oh, how he wished that he could properly waltz just so he could lead you out on the dance floor. But, he opted to walk up to you to start a conversation. Sebastian had the smuggest smile.
“My lady”, he took your hand in his, bowed, and placed a soft kiss on the back of it. You were a bit flustered, but you managed to brush it off. I mean, it wasn’t everyday that the head of the Phantomhive household walks up to you out of all people.
“My lord”, you gave a polite and graceful curtsy. He led you over to the table that held food. He explained that since his parents died, he was never truly given the time to be taught to dance and to excuse him for it. You both got a few sweets on your plates before you stepped aside.
You both had a deep conversation about a case that the Queen had you both working on (but didn’t tell either of you). He was very pleasantly surprised at your competence and common sense, as well as being able to piece together the evidence that he brought to you.
Once the ball was over and everyone was leaving for their carriages, Ciel escorted you arm-in-arm to your carriage to assure your safety. However, before you got in, you leaned towards his ear and whispered something.
I know that Sebastian is a demon.
He went wide-eyed as you acted like nothing happened. You even gave him a peck on the cheek as his butler helped you into the carriage. He made a note to formally invite you over to the Manor the following day so that you both could continue your conversation.
Once he did, you came and you were both locked in his office for hours working on the case. When you visited the Undertaker, he mistook you both as Mr. and soon-to-be-Mrs. Ciel Phantomhive. It was rather embarrassing for the both of you, but it made him laugh 🤷‍♀️.
After a mutual agreement between the two of you, he wrote a letter to your parents saying that he would be glad to be betrothed to you. Of course, the recipients of said letter were beyond ecstatic that their daughter had found a nice and respectable (see: powerful and wealthy) man.
Sebastian often catches you reading many different books in many different languages to Ciel to get him to calm down after a stressful day. Your fiancé is always impressed by the sheer amount of knowledge you store in that wonderful mind of yours.
You would often stick around and help Sebastian with his lessons. You set up a game where for every question he gets right, he gets to choose between receiving a sweet or receiving a kiss from you. I think we all know what his choice is here.
You very rarely get into arguments with each other, but when you do, you’ll wait until you’re both calmed down and you will talk through the issue like responsible young adults. You have both learned from each other and grew more mature with each passing day.
Each and every day, where one goes, they are not without the other in their arm. You both look like a young married couple with how lovingly you both look at each other. The love you have reminds everyone of the love Ciel’s parents had when they were alive.

Hi! I’m so excited for the demo to come out on Friday and to meet Zoe officially (they are just sooo, <3 <3 <3, y’know)! I was wondering how the ROs would react to the classic MC was struggling to finish a project and the ROs suggested something that solved the problem so the MC got really excited and did the whole “you’re a genius!!” thing which leads to the MC kissing them on the cheek after which they get extremely embarrassed (in the crushing stage)… sorry I couldn’t think of a easier way to word it lol. Thanks and hope you are having a good day <3
I'm glad you're excited!! Quick note before I answer the prompt so people know what to expect; the MC only officially meets 2 (possibly 3) of the ROs. Two of them are present in scenes not with the MC, and one isn't there at all. The prologue is just setup, and you'll officially meet everyone in Chapter 1!
For the prompt:
Rook: His brain short circuits. He'll recover quick and try to laugh it off, "Well, someone's happy." He hears his voice catch, and hopes you don't notice it, or hear the way his heart beat picks up. He tells himself it doesn't mean anything.
Beck: He's casual about it, and when he notices you're embarrassed, it's a casual reassurance, "It's alright, I don't mind." And he doesn't, because he's always making excuses to touch you in ways you'll allow. Bonus points for an MC who is touchy-feely because you may have even kissed his cheek before, and if you have, why are you so embarrassed this time?
Rhea: She's flustered, but is trying so hard to be casual about it. She gives a single nod of her head, "Anyway, glad I could help." Meanwhile, her thoughts are racing, her heart is doing weird little jumps and she fights the blush threatening to color her cheeks.
Zoe: They're flustered and it's so obvious. They duck their head away, they mumble "You're welcome." It takes everything in their power to look you in the eye again. Bonus points for an MC who would be even more embarrassed at their reaction and then you're both stammering at each other OR a teasing MC who would recover just to make them even more embarrassed somehow.
Lars: He hardly reacts. Maybe a quick glance towards you or a raise of his eyebrow, but he doesn't comment and moves on to the next thing. His response is the same as ever to your thanks, "Sure, whatever." If you're really outwardly embarrassed though, he'd probably give you a smirk, lean forward and say, "Don't do something you can't commit to." He pulls away again before you can react.
???: They're teasing you. Their eyelids lower, their grin gets a little sharper, "Does your thanks always come with a kiss? Because I can be more helpful then this, little moon." Amusement laces every word, and likely only grows with your reaction.

so hear me out real quick: DMC 3 Dante x Fem gf reader who is a ninja demon Hunter!!
AW YEAH! NINJA TIME!
Dmc3! Dante x Fem!Ninja!Reader headcannons
-Super impressed by you being a ninja-like seriously, those are so rare these days! He was 100% sure ninjas were just myths, so seeing a real one alive and well is shocking.
-Begs you to show him your ninjas weapons and teach him how they work, cause they're just so cool!
-Laughs when you sneak up on him outwardly, but inside, he was startled as hell and wonders just what other stealthy things you can do.
-You two instantly become partners in crime; he gives you the supplies and you sneak around, laying them out. After everything's been placed, you stand back and watch chaos ensue.
-Calls you his "Sneaky Sweetheart" and is always thinking up new, ninja related nicknames.
-Loves to chase you around to see if he can catch you, and if he does, he'll pin you to the ground and smother you in kisses because he loves his ninja baby.
-Does all he can to research ninja history and all that so he has at least a little knowledge of how they really work, instead of what the media usually portrays them as.
-Helps you clean and polish your weapons whenever needed.
-Genuinely wants to see if you can fit in a cardboard box, so if you can, please show him. No this is not a reference to Metal Gear Rising, I'm not that obsessed
-Demon fighting is much easier when you have both a Legendary demon hunter and a ninja on your team.
-You guys work together surprisingly well; the only problem is that since Dante isn't able to see you, he has a high chance of accidentally shooting you.
-Fortunately, this problem is solved if you wear a tiny LED light round your neck. The light is so small, most demons don't notice it, but Dante's sharp eyes do, so he'll know where you are and you'll be fine.
-An additional perk of being a ninja is that surprising him is easy. Use this power wisely, and mess with him as much as humanely possible.

Paws of Darkness
pairings: jordan li x marie moreau, sam riordan x emma meyer, cate dunlap x andre anderson
tw: mentions of spells, swearing, drug use, kissing, some violence against animals (sort of - this one is kind of blurry)
description: the group of friends were on their way to a halloween party when they get side-tracked by a rather furry problem.
a/n: part 2 of my halloween double feature! this sort of doesn't make sense in some parts lol cause i whipped this one up pretty quickly with little to no plan so apologies. hope you enjoy and lmk ur thoughts <3
Tumblr media
Wind thrashed against the supe-proof windows as Marie put the finishing touches on her costume. A vampire. It was all a bit on the nose for her taste but that didn’t really repel her from the idea. She never did get to celebrate Halloween during her stay at Red River and her family had always gone all out, so it was a nice way to connect with a powers-free childhood.
The warm smell of pumpkin spice and chocolate permeated Cate’s dorm as she straddled Andre and gave him a soft peck before swiftly jumping up and applying the last bit of her costume, the lipstick.
“Oh come on, don’t be a tease.”
“Hmm well stop distracting me then.” Cate taunted as she flicked her hair back and stepped back from the mirror to inspect her costume. The bright orange tracksuit contrasted with the red of the fake blood. 
“So… what do you think?” Cate asked as she spun around in a circle to show Andre her costume. Andre sat up and pretended to inspect her form in a serious fashion but she wasn’t fooled, he was definitely trying too hard to contain that smile.
“You look fucking incredible. Now we both look as fucking hot as always.”
“Mostly because of my work obviously.” Andre threw his head back and laughed before he adjusted the straps of his black wings tinged with gold. He had decided to go as a fallen angel and had even agreed to let Cate paint parts of his body gold. Somehow he was able to pull it off.
Emma was currently walking through the aisles of the nearest Spirit Halloween trying to find Sam a last minute costume. Ever since the whole Woods scandal, stuff had started to get back to normal. So since Sam hadn’t celebrated Halloween ever since he was a really little kid, Emma was determined to make it his best Halloween yet.
“Okay, how about this one?” Sam asked as he picked up a Ghostface costume. “Then we can kind of go in a couple’s costume.”
“Oh my God, why didn’t I think of that? Yes, absolutely. Come on, we’re going to be late for the party.”
Sam only laughed as the couple started to spring through the array of Halloween costumes and decorations. Emma was decked out in her costume already, one of her absolute favorite characters from Scream - Tatum Riley, who she always thought died wayyyy too early. 
Jordan kept checking their phone as he hugged the cold armor closer to their body and felt the urge to cringe at the chainmail hanging around his face. Going as a knight was a much better idea in theory than in practice, but at least they looked hot as fuck.
Finally he heard footsteps coming closer to the meeting point that the group had decided on. After everything they all sort of trauma bonded and now it was as if they were stuck for life. Twisting around with a loud metallic tinkling Jordan’s mouth dropped as Marie appeared, looking as sinful as hell itself but also as beautiful as one of heaven’s angels.
“Hi love, you look fucking incredible.” Jordan said as he kissed Marie gently, feeling a slight bite at their lower lips from Marie’s fangs.
“Oh god stop it with the PDA.” The couple jumped apart as Emma appeared with Sam, at least who they thought was Sam, in tow.
“Hey guys.” Sam’s voice echoed through the Ghostface mask, solving that mystery.
“Why do you both look so fucking hot? This is unfair.” Emma said with a sarcastic huff making a laugh come out of Jordan before they spotted Cate and Andre walking up to them.
“Fucking hell, Andre. You actually clean up well.” Jordan said with a teasing lilt making the entire group burst out laughing.
“Oh fuck you.” Andre said with a smile on his face before he playfully punched Jordan through on the cracks in the armor.
“Ok so what are the plans for tonight?” Marie ventured out as the chaos started to ebb down.
“No idea, thought we should get high and fuck around until we find a party.” Andre answered in his usual laid back tone.
“Sounds good to me.” Emma said with a shrug and the rest of the group muttered noises of assent as Andre pulled out a little bag of one of his many substances he kept around him.
“Molly?”
“Yes please.” Jordan said as they shifted and grabbed the bag, dipping her fingers in and maintaining eye contact with Marie as they licked the molly off of their fingers. “Remember when we first did this?”
“Oh I remember.” Marie said in a gradious tone as she winked in Jordan’s direction before stealing the bag from her fingers.
Only after the bag was passed around and the molly was starting to kick in did the group venture out from their little meeting place. Sam had his arm thrown around Emma’s shoulders, a motion that the rest of the couples mirrored - snuggling into their person’s warmth since it was a particularly cold night.
All of a sudden a loud yowl was heard from one of the school’s buildings and a ball of fur sailed past Jordan’s face making them let out an uncharacteristic squeal as the thing fell onto the soft grass with a thud.
“Oh shit.”
“Is it dead?”
“Shut up Andre.” Muttered the group in synch as Marie crouched down next to the little animal, careful not to get her costume wet from that afternoon’s rain.
“Oh my God, he’s still alive!” Marie exclaimed as she picked up the all-black furry thing and cradled it in her arms.
“Woah, that thing could have rabies. Shouldn’t you be more careful?” Emma exclaimed as the group all craned their heads to look at the little animal.
“No, Emma. He has a collar look! Uh his name is… Salem.”
“Aww hi little Salem.” Jordan said in a much higher tone of voice as they lifted a hand to gently stroke the cat’s fur. The action caused the cat’s eyes to flutter open only for another yowl to come out of his throat when he realized he was in a stranger’s arms. Jumping off, the black cat fled into the dark night leaving the group confused.
“Huh, I guess the cat was okay then.”
Except the cat wasn’t actually okay. He had unfortunately been turned into this damn thing because one of his friends (ex-friend) now dared him to do it. For whatever reason he was still stuck in this damn furry little body. That was when the cat stopped short. He hadn’t realized who those people were until that moment. They were the supes who exposed The Woods. Holy shit, he realized that he might have just inadvertently given up the only way he could be rescued.
In his hurry the cat hadn’t realized a large car was coming right down the street the second he started trotting back over it. With a harsh bang and a flash of pain in his rib cage, the cat tried to let out a scream as he sailed a few yards… only to land right in front of Jordan Li again.
The cat felt himself fade once again. Now he only had 5 lives now… his “friends” had taken away the first two and now by being stupid he had just lost the other two. Being a cat was hard, okay?
The second time that the same black cat landed in front of them Jordan stood quiet, not a single peep was heard of them. Instead her jaw was dropped and they were in so much shock that Marie had to shake her multiple times to get them out of it.
“Jordan! Jordan! Jordan!” Marie’s voice got louder and louder until Jordan blinked up at her in recognition before returning their gaze back to the cat.
“Uh, is that the same cat?” Cate asked as she waved her gloved hands in the direction of Salem, who started stretching and turned almost too human eyes to stare at the group. The cat meowed at Cate and almost seemed to shake his head.
“Okay everyone saw that right? I’m not that high am I?” Emma said with a slightly panicked tone that was very much emanating throughout the whole group.
“The cat fucking nodded!” Jordan exclaimed, the cat then let out a very human huff and lifted a paw almost like he was saying ‘duh’.
“Fuck we are in a supe school aren’t we?” Marie reasoned as she tilted her head down at the cat. 
“God you’re right, you, my love, are a wonder.” Jordan said as they started attacking Marie’s face with a bunch of kisses as she tried to swat her off.
“Oh my God stop, you’re high.” Marie said as she laughed.
“Ok while those two continue doing that, what exactly do you want us to do with you?” Sam asked as he crouched down closer to the cat, only for the cat to almost try and smile at him. It was sort of creepy actually.
Ok so maybe the cat hadn’t exactly thought this out that far, but to be fair he had just died like 4 times. In an attempt to shrug, the cat fell forward and smacked its snout onto the cold grass, making him sneeze.
“Awww.” A blissed out Cate muttered as she knelt down and stroked the cat’s head, only for him to start purring. However the sound stopped the same moment that a bunch of loud male voices started to echo around the corner. They were screaming a name loudly and drunkenly as obnoxious laughs left their mouths.
The cat felt something akin to complete and utter terror seize his body. It seemed like an someone’s fight or flight response was much more amplified as an animal because the instant those voices got closer the black cat bolted the hell out of there. 
Only to run up a tree… which caused the entire group of very loopy supes to stand there in confusion as they watched the black cat circle deftly through the branches.
Once the cat felt like he was safe enough cocooned by the branches was when the very much human, or well supe side of him realized he was in a tree. High up. In a tree. For someone with a really bad fear of heights this was very bad.
The group of supes stood at the foot of the tree utterly confounded about how the hell they were going to get the supe/cat out of the tree. Maybe they should call the fire department. However, they didn’t have to stand there long because after a few seconds the cat sort of went berserk and suddenly there was another loud thump and the cat lay twitching on the cold grass… again.
Four lives left now, how bad can you be at being a cat to go through lives that quickly? The cat let out a very human groan this time, making not only itself jump but also the onlookers. Everyone had a puzzled look on their face.
“So uh Salem? May I call you Salem?” Marie asked, trying to be as polite as possible as the cat shook itself off and looked up to stare at her before nodding. 
“Do you have any idea how this happened to you?” With that the cat nodded one final time before trotting forward, not even looking back to see if the supes were following him or not. The little group looked rather strange following a cat around as they weaved through hallways and dorm rooms until they finally reached an odd looking door.
“Since when has this been here?” Sam asked as he traced the sigils embedded on the random supply closet door.
“I’ve literally never been down here.” Cate said before a strange huff was heard as the cat started scraping at the door, Marie nodded and grabbed the handle and pushed it open only to be assaulted by the strong smell of cinnamon.
“Whoa where the fuck are we?” The cat meowed in response before he pranced over to one of the shelves and started to pull at one of the books, this time it was Emma who grabbed the heavy book and let it thud against the dusty wooden table. The cat got on its hind paws and started to try and flick through the pages.
‘This better fucking work’ was all that the cat was thinking. The book belonged to the very friend who had turned him into this ball of fur using his annoyingly specific animal transformation power. The book was actually a journal, where he knew that his friend kept detailed instructions on how to turn back - without the help of his powers.
When the cat finally stopped flipping the pages and meowed triumphantly, the group all peered over the page. Only to find a weird little Latin incantation and list of a few ingredients: cinnamon, ram’s milk and honey. All which were in containers along the shelves.
Emma and Marie got right to work as Cate scooped the cat up in her arms and settled into one of the dusty arm chairs. This whole situation was getting weirder by the second. By the time the mixture was ready the cat had started to doze off in Cate’s arms as Jordan and Andre discussed random assignments they had due soon. However the strong smell of the liquid got the cat to raise its sleepy head and quickly started licking up the mixture.
The incantation was really all for show, Henry liked to think he was some kind of fancy sorcerer when this was like basic chemistry to get his powers to reverse - each animal had a different recipe corresponding to them.
The cat started to feel more human by the time that the mixture was finished being lapped up and it only took a few moments to take effect before a black haired guy stood up from his place on the floor - covered head to toe in flowing black robes.
“So… thanks I guess.” He uttered when he realized that everyone in the room was looking at him with wide eyes.
“Wait so this was all real?”
“I’m afraid so. I am Salem by the way - my parents are hippies so I got a weird name.” Salem said with an awkward chuckle.
“Huh.” Jordan uttered as they threw an arm around Marie’s shoulder and looked at the teenager.
“So how did this all happen?”
“My friend’s are fucking assholes.” Salem said as he swept a hand through his hair, God he had missed being human. The group nodded before they bid him a few awkward goodbyes.
“Weirdest fucking night.” Andre uttered as the group started to file out of the door. It was only Cate that looked back into the strange little room - only to find it completely empty. There were no books and the smell of cinnamon had completely disappeared. All that was left was a paw print in the middle of the dust.

It was not finished when I read it and I have not run into it again, so I really hopes it was continued.
Everyone's help is greatly appreciated!
is either by @besanii or @sarah-yyy

11. Hello there! I'm looking for a fic I just read but can't even find the post that recommended it -_-
It was in a modern setting but the same universe and lan zhan doesn't remember wei ying when he meets him as a substitute cultivator at the jiang clan. Turns out he was cursed with a mark behind his ear that made him forget wei ying completely. The curse was to cure a japanese h-something disease which was basically being super love sick and puking up flowers? @iwannhaveacoolone (do you mean Hanahaki? - Mod C)
FOUND! long have you been alone by martyrsdaughter (E, 56k, WangXian, Modern with Magic, Modern Cultivation, Amnesia, Curses, Hanahaki Disease, Not Actually Unrequited Love, Workplace Relationship, Light Angst, Sexual Content, Mild Painplay, Overstimulation, WWX Has a Breeding Kink, Light Bondage, Mild Gore, Mild Breathplay, Brief Mentions of WWX/Others and LWJ/Others, other relationships are past tense and off screen exclusively)

12. Hii i dont know how to use tumbler properly so i decided to ask here. I am looking for two wangxian fanfcis.
A) The first one begins with wei ying and lan zhan's death - mo xuanyu's core is not strong enough to help wei ying reach immortality just prolongs his life. lan zhan decided he does not want immmortality if wei ying is not with him so lan zhan shares/sustains wei ying and himself with his golden core until he runs out of energy and they die toghether in the jingshi. However, next thing you know they are in the past. That is all i can remember
on the first one. I read it on ao3.
B) The second one i don't remember much - just that there is a part in the fanfic where wei ying finds out about lan zhans scars and how he got them. They end up in the cold spring/cold pond and wei ying somehow heals all of lan zhans scars using energy? while there. Not sure if it is spiritual or resentfull? After i know Lan zhan ends up in front of the gusu lan elders i don't remember why ther find out that wei ying has cured him/healed his back scars because they are gone - his back is smooth again and wei ying appears in front of the elders to threaten them no to hurt lan zhan. I am not sure how long is the fanfic but i know it doesnt revolve around this particular thing. Also read this one on ao3.
I am sorry for the errors in spelling english is nit my first language. Thank you in advance for finding the fanfics. @dacika98

13. It's been a while! It's boyfriend! (Hello again! - Mod C)
There's a fic that I have been trying to find for a while now and I forgot what it is about. All I remember is this:
- Madam Yu good so is the rest of the Jiang
- I think it's something about time travel fix it
-The Jiang Family + Wei Wuxian talking about Jiang Cheng and Jin Ling's weird naming of dogs and then they said something about Sect Leader Jiang naming the Sword suibian. Someone in the group said it runs in the family to which Jiang Cheng refuted it by saying his name and Yanli's name were good names. Madam Yu just laughed and said that it was her who named them and not Jiang Fengmian.
I'm sorry that's all I remember but anyway thank you in advance!!
~*~
14. Hi, the fic i am looking for takes place post-canon. I think the focus point was A-Yuan trying to find out more about his past and coming to terms with his wen family and how they were treated by the other clans.
There is a scene where he sits on a roof with Jin Ling and they drink together. LSH talks about having problems with forgiving people he loves and JL gives him advice? I think they also apologize to each other and JL tells him to talk to Jiang Cheng.
Pretty sure I read it on AO3. The scene is just really stuck in my head and I would love to reread the fic bc I love A-Yuan trying to navigate the impact of all those relegation at the end of Canon have on his life. @fangirl-oracle
Hi, #14 was "history" by tongzhi on AO3. I found an old save of ao3 tabs and it was there, but thanks for looking <3

15. Hello! I'm searching for this one fanfiction but I forgot what tags it had (I'm a doof I should've marked it read later sadge)
It's about WWX annoying LWJ so much that LWJ used the silencing spell on him not because WWX was breaking the rules, but because he was annoyed and the spell was too strong for him to break cuz it was put on out of strong emotion.

WWX told them he wanted to demonstrate his latest innovation, but before he could do so LWJ came with a letter from JC. The letter says that JC asked WWX for help to investigate "something". Then it was discovered that there was a man who practiced demonic cultivation and there was "something" that supported him.

3, 6, 19 and 21 for Valtor and 2, 4 and 25 for Daphne from the character ask game? 🙏
Thanks for the questions!
Valtor:
3. Least favorite canon thing about this character?
How overpowered he is. This is literally the crux of pretty much every issue with him. I'm going to take them one at a time.
First off, it is ridiculously easy for him to just get what he wants. He barely encounters any obstacles at all, especially when the Winx aren't there to fight him. This creates inconsistencies with the backstory. If it is this easy for him to steal magic and he's so powerful, it is hardly believable that he wasn't doing this before he was imprisoned or that if he was doing it, the Company were able to limit the damage he'd do (especially since the leftover Company members seem so powerless against him in the present when they should be even stronger as fighters after the 17 years they've had to acquire wisdom, experience and to develop their magical abilities further; make it make sense!). And not just that. The idea that he can just waltz into both CT and Alfea, take over the first and dispose of the head of the latter, not to mention what he did on every other world he set foot on, erases any kind of stakes from the story. It implies that he cannot be stopped by the authorities. So why is he hiding then instead of taking over the world since nothing has given us the indication that there is a force that could stop him? Leaving that issue aside, he just succeeds too easily, which makes everyone else look like weak, incompetent morons and doesn't help him either. Most of the places he robs of their magic were hardly protected at all when making him struggle a little but still succeed and outsmart his enemies would have done much more to highlight his power and cunning. They just go about building him up as a threat in the wrong way.
Secondly, he starts to unravel so badly from 3x18 onwards. The minute they introduced the Agador Box, it was game over for him and his credibility as a villain. This might seem to go against the idea that he's overpowered as the Box seemed to be a plot device demonstrating that he, too, is limited. But the truth is that nothing they'd shown before has given us any indication that power could ever become too much for him. The Box doesn't make sense when his goal was always to collect power and he himself never gave any indication that he was getting overloaded in order to foreshadow his need for it. The truth is that they needed a way for Winx to defeat him after they went overboard with his abilities and the Box was pretty much it. All his spells go in, then with the help of some fairy dust all his spells go out. Boom! Problem solved. By a cheap plot to get rid of the virtually invincible villain they created. If they'd set some limits from the start, this literally never would have been an issue. I'd actually argue that it makes way more sense for him to come with preexisting limits installed by the Ancestral Witches. After all, they wouldn't want their creation somehow amassing enough power to overthrow them and possibly kill them. It would have given him something to overcome and been a much more organic way to keep him at a power level that wouldn't require them to turn him into a pathetic wet cat for the Winx to be able to defeat him.
And lastly, I think his invulnerability contributes the most to people misinterpreting him. I have seen Valtor stans swearing up and down that he is composure personified and so in control of himself, which just... isn't true. Valtor is calm and collected for the majority of the season not because that is who he is as a character but because there is nothing that can oppose him and truly stand in his way. Think about any instance when something doesn't go like he wants it to, be it mind-controlled Ediltrude and Zarathustra telling him Griffin is trying to escape in 3x11, the Winx and their teachers failing his plan to kill Bloom in 3x14 or the Trix laughing at him in 3x25. His instant reaction is violent anger (less so in 3x11 but super evident in both of the other examples). Really, his composure is proportionally tied to his excessive power that no one else can challenge. And in those last episodes when it becomes clear his power is not going to be enough, he's not unraveled completely yet because he's exploiting everyone else's emotional weaknesses such as siccing the Trix on Bloom in 3x22 under guise of letting them fix their mistake from 3x20 and lying to Bloom he's absorbed her parents into his body in 3x23 to save his skin. He still believes that he can win because he's holding the better hand but once his spells are scattered in 3x25 and he loses the Trix as his minions, he goes completely off the rails. That is to say that his power is a crutch and limiting it from the start could have afforded more opportunities to explore his character, make him more interesting and compelling if he has to struggle and isn't allowed to keep his composure this much.
6. What's something you have in common with this character?
Being obsessed with Griffin
Too many things for comfort. Definitely the pride that easily crosses into arrogance. Recently someone told me that they've noticed I can act quite arrogant and I was like "We know but hey!" I'm pretty sure that it's not in the grand proportions in which it is with Valtor though so... at least I have that going for me. 😅
19. How about a relationship they have in canon that you don't like?
Well, that's easy. I HATE what they did with him and the Trix. Okay, he wants to keep them under his thumb by making them bicker with each other but a) that shouldn't have worked after the previous season and what happened with Darkar and b) why would he feel the need to manipulate them when it's never indicated that they can be a threat to him? I am a firm believer that they should have leaned way more into the fact that the Trix are descendants of the Ancestral Witches. They could have mostly kept his strategy of divide and conquer but with the added bonus that he is implied to be mega uncomfortable in the Trix' presence because of how much they remind him of the Ancestral Witches. That would have done wonders for his character and saved that particular subplot. His discomfort with the Trix would perfectly foreshadow his confrontation with the Ancestral Witches in 3x26 and could give us context of why Valtor is amassing so much magic (to ensure he'll never be under his mothers' thumb again). It'd give more depth to his character and make him feel more real when there is a negative situation he's desperate to avoid.
21. If you're a fic writer and have written for this character, what's your favorite thing to do when you're writing for this character? What's something you don't like?
My favorite thing is to have him be wrong about something/have someone else (usually Griffin) get the upper hand on him, lol. I think you can easily infer why from all my ranting in the first question so I'm not going to rehash that whole thing again here. I'll just add that it's really satisfying to watch someone wipe his smug look off his face. 10/10 would recommend at every possible opportunity. (Quick note: the way his defeat was handled on the show wasn't even cathartic because they had already torn him down so much since 3x18 through the script itself that Winx didn't really get to crush him in a satisfying way, especially considering how personal he made things for them during the season.)
I don't like having to write his speech patterns because I am always second guessing whether he sounds the way he's supposed to. He does have a more formal way of speaking and I have to remind myself of that constantly. It's a struggle to keep his dialogue in character and I am not a fan of that. But like everything, it gets easier the more you practice it.
Daphne:
2. Favorite canon thing about this character?
That's so tough considering how badly canon treats her. I'm still unclear on whether her being the previous Keeper of the Dragon Fire is just one dub's version or canon all around. While to me that's always been canon, I'm gonna be very controversial with my unpopular opinion - my favorite thing about her is that she was resurrected. Yes, season 6 could have hardly treated her worse and yes, they probably brought her back for Bloom's sake, not her own but I am happy regardless because it pisses people off Daphne deserves to be more than just the ghost that died for Bloom's sake. Her season 6 storyline may suck but it is the first time that the show has treated her as her own character rather than as a prop for Bloom's story and I support that idea. I really wish people would think about that instead of insisting that Daphne stay dead just because the show dropped the ball with the execution of her revival.
4. If you could put this character in any other media, be it a book, a movie, anything, what would you put them in?
Oh, ouchie, that's a tough question. It may be because of my long-standing obsession that's currently been kicked into motion again but the first thing that popped into my head was The Hunger Games. There is just a great similarity between Daphne and Katniss both going above and beyond to protect their little sisters. And thinking about this a little more in-depth, that would actually do Daphne a very big favor because it will allow her story and feelings to be explored like they never were on the show. If she were the main character just like Katniss is, she doesn't have to be sidelined for the sake of focusing on Bloom. Daphne will be the center of the story which will allow us to witness her journey and more of her character. She would still be defined by her sacrifice for Bloom (so her character won't be warped beyond recognition) but she won't have to be contained and limited by it. She can have her own story and be the main player in it, have her trauma explored because that is one of the central things The Hunger Games focuses on.
25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now?
Oh, it's impossible to remember what my first impression was because it's been about 20 years since then. But I am positive that I always loved Daphne! However, now I am able to appreciate the nuances to her character and all the potential that she has. She's definitely one of my faves and deserved so much better!

HEE HO
AsuLili
3, 6, 10, 31,36
XiaoJin
1, 60, 55, 12, 10
Tumblr media
J FROST IS LUCKY HES BLUE AND HAS ICE POWERS
(Also dont kill me for the Asulili im not as versed as you)
3. Do they wear the other’s clothes? (sweatshirt, bandana, necklace, etc.)
*laughs in canon clothes swap in t8 customization* but fr i dont think asuka would willingly wear lili's clothes bc its not her style and the same would be true for lili. BUT when lili start to gift asuka clothes, I feel she would eventually wear the kinda clothes she buy for her gf herself, making asuka want to wear them in return.
6. Who would beg the other not to leave? Who has to leave to protect the other?
I FEEL like both of those would be lili. bc lili is the one making an active choice to be in asuka's life, so it would be her who'd have to swallow her pride and beg for asuka to stay, all the while being the one who'd be ready to leave to protect asuka, bc in her mind, pre-dating, she deep down would think/know that her presence isnt essential in asuka's life (it wouldnt be true but yknow)
10. Describe their first date.
When they decide to actually start dating, I feel their first date would be kinda jarring to asuka bc in her mind, she'd picture lili doing exactly what lili has always done, with the extravagance she's bring to everything, the roses, the everything... but the actual date is much more reserved bc in lili's mind, smth has changed yknow? This has a touch of seriousness to the situation that wasnt there before, and maybe, just maybe, lili is a bit more nervous about this now.
31. Can they sit side by side without touching the other or are they handsy? (lacing fingers, touching knees, etc.)
I feel asuka would be kinda handsy bc thats the protectiveness talking, she would barely even notice that shes doing it, someone would be talking to either of them about lili in particular and asuka would have to have a physical contact with her.
36. Who’s more likely to fire up the stove at 2am because the other woke up in the middle of the night hungry?
Again. Asuka. She's someone who finds concrete solutions to problems, and if lili wakes up hungry well there is only one way to solve that. "Its rotten work, especially if its you. I mean i'll do it but christ alive"
And now Xiaojin!
1. Who would end a heated argument by defending their actions with ‘because I love you!’ ?
Xiaoyuuu like MAYBE post-t8, jin could end up in that situation but for the most part it'd be xiaoyu, again, pre-t8, jin would have trouble coming to terms as to why someone would do any kind of extreme actions for HIM so this would be xiaoyu's argument ender. She'd immediately be embarassed after saying it while jin bluescreen
10. Describe their first date.
AMUSEMENT PARK BABEYYY like man. Literally what better for them to reconnect as friends and get used to hang out as lovers? With xiaoyu's special interest and a place jin is sure to enjoy experiencing for most likely the first time where he get just to have fun?
12. Do they have many heated arguments? How do they smooth things over?
I dont think they have many arguments and in those, jin would be particularly apologetic anyway. His loved ones are everything to him so naturally he would try to make her heard and find together a solution to whatever problem theyre having that would have them argue anyway. That and he also feels like a "my girlfriend is mad at me. I hope I die" kinda guy.
55. Do they like watching clouds or star gazing?
Both, watching clouds turns into star gazing eventually and this is more jin's thing like he would show xiaoyu the clear sky of yakushima and she's happy to share that with him
60. Who pulls the other closer when they’re sleeping?
Xiaoyu does it sometimes bc like. she's finally found him :) but most of the time its Jin, he likes that kind of comfort to having her close to him and not being scared of harming her despite himself

Back Seat | River | Camp Trail
These are amazing I'm adding all of these to my tumblr prompt lists for later! My brain is the big sads so this is all like pre smut but there's still some cute shit in there <3 thank you this is just what I needed
❄️Snow | Cold Fingers & Warm Lips💋
Mungrove 
AN: I love the idea of billy and eddie being neighbors okay 
It’s cold today. And yeah, its always cold in Hawkins in the winter time, but today is like, record breaking cold, like ‘you should be worried about the effects on the planet as a whole,’ cold. It fucking sucks, but by some miracle, the camper still has electricity and heat.
Eddie's warming his extremities in front of a space heater in the living room when there's a sharp series of knocks on his front door.
He opens the door to his new (within the year new) neighbor, California transplant Billy Hargrove, who looks positively frozen on the spot.
“Powers out,” is all he says by way of explanation before shouldering his way inside. 
“Oh shit,” Eddie says, looking across the street to the Mayfields/Hargrove's dark trailer. “What about your fami-”
“Motel. They’re fine.”
“Oh. Well, not that I don’t like your company, but uh, what the hell are you doing here?”
“Do you really think I want to be stuck in a fucking motel room with them?”
“Fair point,” Eddie snorts. Red was cool, but he didn't know much about her mom. And he knew too much about Neil. So instead of kicking the man out, he says “Make yourself at home.”
Billy goes immediately for the space heater and pulls his gloveless hands out of his jacket. He’s not wearing anything thicker than that faded brown leather jacket Eddie’s seen him rock at parties and jeans.
“Dude…”
“What?” Billy snaps, rotating his blue, most likely numb fingers in front of the space heater. 
“You still haven’t gotten a proper jacket?”
“Didn't think I’d still be here,” Billy replies bitterly. And again, Eddie can't blame him. He knows how much Billy misses California. And how in Billy's twisted mind he misinterprets buying a winter coat as permanent as setting up roots and buying a house in Hawkins. 
“Well, you are,” Eddie says, walking over to Billy’s side and flopping down on the ground to his right. “And in addition to that, you're here, so at least let me help.” He reaches out to take Billy’s hands into his own. Gentle, because they were going to hurt once they got circulation again, and started to rub across the palm with his fingers. His fingers are colder than ice, and knowing Billy, they have likely been like this for a while. The thing about Billy is, he only asks for help when he's desperate, and he never, ever uses those words. 
Eddie looks over the purple digits again with a frown and brings Billy's hand close to his mouth. 
Billy’s yank back was not only predictable but expected.
“What are you doing?” he asks, and while his voice is harsh, angry, his eyes are terrified, searching for any indication Eddie is setting him up for ridicule. 
Eddie isn’t. He wouldn’t do that. They’ve already been about as intimate as you can be with a person in the 7 weird months of their new friendship, but that doesnt mean Billy stops being Billy. 
“Do you want to lose your fingers?” Eddie asks.
“What?”
“Look at em. That’s not a good color.”
“That’s why I went to the space heater!” Billy defends. 
“Suit yourself,” Eddie shrugs, not giving up, but knowing Billy needs to be lured in a very specific way. “Might be kinda hard to jerk off without fingers. Hey! Maybe you could have them amputate the whole thing and get one of those cool hook hands! Wouldn't really solve the jerking off problem though…”
“Oh my GOD,” Billy huffs before shoving his hands back into Eddie’s face. Anything to get him to just stop talking.  
Eddie tries not to laugh too hard or boast his victory but he can’t help but feel good knowing the holes in Billy’s defenses.  
Eddie takes Billy’s right hand back into his hands and starts to rub across the slightly frostbitten skin. 
“Keep your other one near the heater,” he instructs, knowing there's no way he would convince Billy to touch any other part of Eddie’s skin at this stage. Billy does, and Eddie continues rubbing warmth and circulation back into the blonde’s hand. “Let me know when you start to feel it, it’s probably going to hurt.”
“Yeah, I know,” Billy huffs, looking pointedly everywhere but back at Eddie. 
“Want to smoke tonight?” Eddie offers, hoping to lighten some of the tension. 
“You got some bud?”
“Course I do,” Eddie laughs, rubbing across Billy’s palm. “Can you fold your fingers towards your palm yet?”
Billy turns his palm in Eddie’s hand and folds all of his fingers at the knuckle towards the palm. He winces a little but it's progress from where he started. His fingers are still a darker color than Eddie likes so he cups the folded hand in both of his and lowers his mouth closer. Billy doesnt pull away this time. Instead, he feels Billy’s breath inhale sharply at the same time Eddie exhales localized heat across his fingertips. If he was any closer, he’d be kissing them.  
“Eddie…” Billy gasps, quieter than a whisper. 
It's not necessarily intimate, but to Billy it must feel it, because his voice cracks the way it only does when he’s heavily, emotionally conflicted about something. 
Fortunately for Billy, Wayne comes storming out of his bedroom and into the common area just then. Billy pulls his hands back into his pockets and Eddie sits back on his hands like they hadn’t just been touching. 
It's ridiculous really, Wayne knows about Eddie. But still. Billy is always abundantly careful for the sake of his life.  
Wayne looks stressed, and Eddie is suddenly worried something awful has happened. 
“Everything okay Wayne?”
“Yeah, Claudia Henderson got stuck on her way coming home. She had to walk over a mile in this snow just to call me. I’m gonna go pull her car out, take her home.”
Wayne Munson. Patron Saint, he swears.
“Uh, alright, well, you should be careful too.” Eddie says, because he knows his van sure as hell won’t make it out of the park let alone all the way across town to bail him out if he gets stuck too. 
“I’ll be fine Eds,” Wayne says, a little impatient. Though Eddie can’t really blame him. He would hate to have to leave the warm area of his home to brace the snow too. “Be good you two, you hear,” he says, looking specifically at Eddie. 
Eddie threw his hands up in a scouts honor and it at least made Wayne laugh. “Yeah yeah.”
-
As soon as Wayne leaves, Billy exhales the tension he’s been holding. His hands seek out Eddie’s now; the back of Billy’s hand smacking Eddie impatiently until he continued the previous warming treatment. It was so goddamn funny and so Billy Hargrove Eddie bursts out laughing. 
“You're ridiculous,” Eddie says, taking Billy’s other hand and resuming his previous actions. 
“Whatever, you're into it.” Billy says, a little mean, but then he smirks and Eddie just about melts in place. 
“I uh, I didn't offer this before because of Wayne, but-”
Billy can already read the writing on the wall and smirks as Eddie starts to move closer. The musician climbs into the blonde’s lap, taking each of Billy’s still chilled hands and moving them under his Hellfire shirt towards his stomach. As soon as his icy digits touch soft skin Eddie gasps, loud as the chill freezes him to the bone. It doesn't take long to melts into something so much hotter though. Billy’s hands move across his skin grip just above the top hem of his jeans. He squeezes tight, holding Eddie right where he wants him. 
“Fuck me,” Eddie pants, because it really is cold, but he loves Billy’s hands on him. Any way he can get them. 
“Funny,” Billy purrs, pulling Eddie closer as he starts an array of sharp nips up Eddie’s neck, “I was just thinking the same thing.”
“Please, Billy,” Eddie pants and that’s all it takes. Billy stands and lifts them both off of the leather sofa, holding Eddie against his body as he walks back into his bedroom, sharp teeth finally making contact with the meat of his neck.
