“Close your eyes for me love.” ? >:3
Lulu! ❤ lol i'm still very much into Stalker!Adrian, but now with a teeny tiny tad bit of a twist!!
Word count: 1000 Warnings: canon typical violence
Tumblr media
You were absolutely the most important person in Adrian’s life. After the whole butterfly incident the team went their own ways, even Peacemaker left Evergreen, again. That left you as the only person in town that he cared for. He just…had to work up the courage to actually talk to you!
But not now. Maybe the next time you came into the restaurant. You liked eating there, he noticed. In fact, he noticed a lot about you. It was easy; you were a creature of habit. It meant that even if he couldn’t watch out for you in person, he knew where to find you.  
Like right now, you should have been at home, in your pajamas and cuddled up in bed. But you weren't home. 
He cursed under his breath and jumped off of your balcony. He had to retrace the steps of where you should have been! 
Luckily you were just a block from your apartment complex, but rage filled his core as he saw a man twice your size slam you into a wall, one hand around your throat while the other moved down where he couldn’t see. 
Faster than he could ever remember moving, he pulled the man off of you, your gasped coughs only adding to his anger, and shoved him to the other side of the alley. 
“Close your eyes for me love.” He growled out as he raised his gun at the man, only hesitating a moment to let you close your eyes. 
You did not.
You could not.
You watched as he pulled the trigger, bullet bursting through the man’s skull sending blood and flesh and brain matter across the red brick wall. Brick red and blood red were so different. Neon against the darkness of night.
As much as your mind tried, you could find no pattern in the goopy, stringy, mess slowly being pulled down by gravity. It wasn’t until another shade of red, brilliant and gleaming, obscured your sight did you gasp for a breath you didn’t know you were holding.
Vigilante filled your senses, your eyes locked onto his red visor, he smelled of gunpowder and oil, his voice was pleasantly low, not deep and booming and intimidating, but low enough that his worried words (what was he saying?) were able to cut through the temporary tinnitus. 
“Shit,” he mumbled under his breath when you didn’t respond to him a third time. And only because you were worth it, you were worth everything to him, he pulled off his mask and gently cradled your face in his hands, calling your name in hopes of snapping you out of this daze you were in.
“Adrian?” You whispered, shocked, as your eyes locked with his.
His eyebrows scrunched up in the cutest way. “You know who I am?” 
Of course you did, he was only the man you were harboring a major crush on. Some people might even consider you a stalker, for all the times you showed up at his work place just for a glimpse of him. Fennel Fields was mediocre Italian food, at best! But you eventually figured out his schedule and couldn’t help but eat there twice a week, just to stare at him. A little creepy, but how he fueled your dreams!
“What the fuck are you doing?!” You snatched the Vigilante mask out of his hand and shoved it back over his head. “You can’t let the cops see you like that!” 
Sure, you knew he was Vigilante, but this was the first time you had actually seen him kill someone. You were grateful for that, you didn’t want to think of what your attacker would have done had Vigilante not shown up.
You then grabbed his hand and started to drag him away from the murder scene and towards your apartment. 
Vigilante stumbled a bit, “uh, you’re not freaked out?”
“That you saved me? No.” 
You decided not to tell him that you often took unnecessary risks with your safety because you were pretty sure he was always following you. He didn’t need to know that you knew his secret. “Thank you for that, by the way.” 
“Oh! You’re welcome!” You could hear the smile in his voice. He had such a sweet voice, you’d only ever heard it in passing before, but aimed at you it somehow sounded brighter. 
“Are you trying to take me home?” He asked, like he didn’t know where you were leading him. 
Right on cue policed sirens echoed through the night and you picked up your pace. “Just until the police go away.” 
“Smart.” 
It only took a few more minutes before you were pushing him inside your apartment.
Now that he was inside, and the risk of other people seeing him gone, he pulled his mask off again and put his glasses on. “How do you know my name?” He circled back.
“How do you know my name?” 
He coughed, “it’s uh, my super power! Yea! I’m really good at guessing names!” 
“Me too.” You blinked, biting your lip to try and hold back a grin. 
“You have a super power?” His little gasp was cute. “I mean, I have a superpower because I’m a superhero. But-”
“Do you wanna fuck?” Now that you had the man you’d been crushing on for weeks in your home and an excuse to keep him here, you might as well go for it. 
“What?” He immediately dropped his ramble, eyes going wide and jaw slack as he processed your question.
“We probably have some time to kill while the cops-Mmh!” 
He practically lunged himself at you, hands gently but firmly pulling your face to his, crushing his lips against yours as he swallowed the rest of your words.
Adrian really didn’t care what the rest of your sentence was going to be, all he knew was that the one person he’d been dreaming for months was offering to fuck him! He wasn’t going to let this opportunity go!

Just because that one "Tiger and the Dragon" fact brought me back to my Tigress x Po shipping heart from my childhood!!!! I will now gush and give every detail as to why I shipped it and still do!!!
Ever since the first film, Po obviously has a crush on her. The first sign was when he was locked out of the Dragon Warrior Ceremony in the first film. After a good while of trying to get in, he gives up and sits down while everyone enjoys the ceremony. But the very second Shifus announces Tigress, Po becomes even more determined to get in. It's a clear fan boy crush but I'll be darned if this isn't one of the cutest things ever. It's even cuter after Tigress breaks two plates in the air and Po gawks at her skills. The creator's even nicknamed the piece of rock he tried to take after Tigress broke it the "Love chunk." You don't give a nickname like that just for no reason!!!!!
The second film is self-explanatory. Don't need to say a single thing but I will anyways. They work well together as a duo in battle. And it's just cute to see Tigress throw Po around and Po is just enjoying it. The concern Tigress has for Po throughout the film in general. You can't see her showing that level of affection with anyone else. It's obvious from everyone's reactions that she doesn't hug others at all. And I don't have to mention this but I will. The fact Tigress took a canon shot for Po. I know she's the leader and would take a shot for anyone but this is storytelling!!! Everything is put there for a reason. And this scene was put there to deepen their relationship. And I have to make this reference. The titanic scene. 🤣🤣🤣 Oh come on!!! How are we supposed to describe that scene? Anyone who has seen it 100% thought it or said "Come back, Jack...... Come back, Jack Black!" The only difference is that the one that was on the floating wood was "dying" while the one in the ocean was the one that got saved. Oh my goodness, I still remember watching that scene for the first time. I cried so much.
The 2nd one felt like they were building something between them and then they dropped it in the 3rd one. Or some say. The third film didn't have much but that doesn't mean they just dropped the relationship. Throughout the film, you can just feel it. There's something about the way they interact with each other. They are comfortably close to each other both physically and emotionally. You can't see that for Tigress with her other friends. Mei Mei! I love her character, she has the confidence that I always desire to have. ❤ But I do say she added more to Po and Tigress's relationship. A little background, I read this years ago so my memory is fuzzy. Mei Mei and Po were supposed to be engaged through an arranged marriage from birth. Mei Mei was on board with the marriage while Po was uncomfortable about it. They dropped the side story though but you can still tell it's there in the background. It's a matter of a "show don't tell" situation. So yeah, Mei Mei pretty much flirts with Po throughout the film up until Tigress shows up. And just the way Mei Mei says "Who's she?" itches my brain. It just feels like she recognized a close bond between them right away. After the battle, Mei Mei decides to flirt with someone else. It feels like they are building a romance between Tigress and Po but they're building it slowly in the background so it doesn't get in the way of the story. I guess we just have to pick up on the clues ourselves.
But I love that. A romance doesn't need to blossom in front of our eyes and be smacked in the middle for everyone to see. And this may be my asexual and demi-romantic side speaking but, I would LOVE to see a romance that starts as a deep friendship. There aren't many animated films that do that. The one that comes to mind is Nick x Judy from Zootopia. It starts as a deep friendship where the two have a clear platonic love for each other. But it can turn into a very healthy romance. I just adore those relationships. Establishing a deep respect and connection first for a year or so before developing a romance.
But I do want to say this. The only way I can see these two being in a romantic relationship is if they keep the romance in the background as they have been in the past three films. Just to make it feel natural. And we're gonna need a moment where we see Tigress's past and Po helping her through it the same way she helped him in the 2nd film. And please, a moment where Tigress is vulnerable like Po was in the 2nd film. I feel like they already set her on that track in 3rd film. They had her bond with a baby panda. Softening her up and making her look more vulnerable without making it cheesy. I like that. Softening through a child rather than softening through romance. It feels natural. And I have seen a few people worry about a "Hero saving the princess" trope. I'm kinda in between? I think? The thing is, I can see a situation like that happening but done in the same way in the 2nd film. When Po goes to rescue Tigress and the others from Shen. Or when Tigress takes the canon for Po. A situation where one rescues the other but in a way that isn't dramatic and it results in the two working together. Teamwork thing!!!
Welp! Other than that, I have poured my shipping heart empty........ I think. 🤣 I'll be back if I need to do another shipping gush. But I should clarify that I don't mind what happens in the next films. It won't be the end of the world if they don't become canon and it won't be the end of the world if they do. Platonic or romantic, it works either way and I just want more moments with them!!!

Top Favourite Tarlos Scenes!
I was tagged by @beautifulhigh @goodways @whenshereads @welcometololaland @rmd-writes
Thank you so much for the tags! ❤💕
Ok so it was a very tough choice to narrow it down to just 5 scenes. So I'm going to mention all my favourite ones! And because I am not able to categorize them according to degree of favourite-ness, I'm putting them in reverse order of appearance.
Here we go:
1. 4x18 The TARLOS WEDDING!
Honestly the entire wedding was so beautiful & such an amazing celebration of their love! And THE VOWS! Absolutely beautiful & emotional & so full of love for each other! Miracle. The care for each other's hearts. And I loved how each of their faiths was incorporated into it!
2. 4x16 SOULMATES
"I'll say, hi! You're TK. I'm Carlos. And we're soulmates."
"How long have you thought that?" "Since the first night I took you home."
THEY'RE SOULMATES YOUR HONOR!
Honestly, this was so beautiful! Carlos being so in love with TK from the very beginning & TK feeling the same way about Carlos but not wanting to experience another heartbreak so running away then. But how in this scene to show TK that he's always going to be there for him Carlos does say that he's not going anywhere.
The EMOTIONS! Ronen & Rafa just were so brilliant here! The was Carlos says 'Hi' & the way TK says 'Soulmate' I just- my heart melted right there!
3. 4x04 "It's yours"
When he said that, I absolutely went feral! It was such a lovely moment!
4. 4x02 The couch scene
"I was trying to fix myself. But I was trying to fix something that wasn't actually broken."
"When did you figure that out?"
"Probably... the day I met you."
Carlos saying this last line & in the absolutely cutest voice ever, TK saying "Shut up."
It was such a beautiful & lovely moment! All his life, Carlos being lonely & thinking he was never going to truly have the love he wanted & thinking that he was broken & THEN. AND THEN seeing TK & realising that that he was not actually broken & that he could have this love!
5. 3x18 The PROPOSAL
The absolute simplicity & beauty of it just blew me away! And the number of times I have rewatched it! It was so perfect because it was so them! And the "IS THE LIZARD BACK" had me laughing so much!
And I felt this was such a full-circle moment for TK. In the pilot he was proposing to someone to save the relationship & how that turned out for him & how it lead him to the place where he would heal & find love again. And then how he proposed to Carlos here to progress into cementing their future together just like he always wanted.
6. 3x13 The dinner scene
This scene is so brilliant! Carlos expresses his feelings & TK explains his. And by the end of this episode Carlos realises that despite wanting to help TK, he might not always be able to. And also another thought I have about this is how at the end of that episode the "I love you." "I know." was so beautiful. And my HC (and as I've seen others express this as well) is that it was this moment that TK thought that he wanted to marry Carlos.
7. 3x08 The tarmac hug
All the worry & fear on their faces & how it relaxed when they saw each other. And the body slam hug. And Carlos blaming himself & panicking & TK knowing exactly what he needs! It's such a beautiful scene!
8. 3x04 Hi baby. Breathe, breathe, breathe & Welcome home
Such a lovely & satisfying conclusion to the Ice Storm arc! And TARLOS BEING BACK TOGETHER! TK reaching out for Carlos & then the hug with Carlos literally collapsing into him & TK holding him as tight as he is able to! And then TK coming home to Carlos because he is his home! (I love the fact that they are each other's home! They are the perfect embodiment of the thought that home is not four walls but a person!)
9. 2x04 The fight & the making up
The fight & how both of them in that moment not getting where the other is coming from but then later Carlos telling his truth & TK being so supportive & understanding!
10. 2x02 Hug at the stairs
Owen telling everyone to go home & TK going to Carlos because (once again, as I said before) THEY'RE EACH OTHER'S HOME! And Carlos waiting for TK at the stairs & how TK just collapses into the hug with Carlos. That collapsing & the hug was such a soft moment.
11. 1x03 At the police station
TK being vulnerable early on & Carlos's reaction to it. Carlos trying to be all cool & aloof at first & not letting his hurt show from the dinner scene of the previous episode & then immediately blaming himself & apologizing when TK tells him why he reacted the way he did at the dinner. And I love that this scene was their chemistry read!
I'm a bit late to doing this so not sure who has done it yet. But no pressure tagging:
@actuallysara @actual-sleeping-beauty @first-kanaphan @detective-giggles @sarnagati @ladytessa74 @just-inside-her @carlos-in-glasses @heartstringsduet @liminalmemories21 @cold-blooded-jelly-doughnut @meditating-honey-badger @fangirl-paba @paperstorm @kiloskywalker & anyone who wants to participate!

Okay so my thoughts and questions on chapter 18:
SPOILERS AHEAD!
OH MY GOD, ONE OF MY FAVOURITE CHAPTERS YET, "CAN YOU FEEL THE LOVE TONIIIIIIIIIGHT?" It was so good, you guys have done amazingly!
I just had a quick question about Connor. So when we told the group about Rowan being a Power freak, Connor was understandably upset, but then he said that stuff about Rowan not being Amalia's real friend and I just wanted to know, was he on his way to becoming a Horror at this point, just because that seemed really cold and cruel on his part. On one hand, I know that when people are upset and angry they say things they don't always mean, trust me, your hearing from a girl who has said some pretty nasty things when she's upset. And he is probably still on edge from his mothers death. But on the other hand, all the other characters handle the news surprisingly well despite what the Power has done to them, even Noah. And I get people process things in different ways but I feel like for a guy like Connor, who literally let the boy who tried to kill his sister and her friends, stay at his house, he would have been a bit more forgiving. So was he already turning into a Horror by Rowan's confession?
I loved the scenes with everyone taking care of newly resurrected Devon. The reason I loved it so much is because during ilitw's, Devon pretty much spent their entire time looking after everybody else, making sure everybody was alright, while not being treated with the same courtesy (like their friends didn't even speak at their memorial and they were already dead, like come on!) So it was really nice to see them being looked after especially in the state their in.
That scene with Noah comforting Devon was just *chefs kiss* like it was the cutest frikin thing I've ever seen (my ilitw's MC is romancing Noah so this is like a dream come true to me, so thank you❤)
I love how everyone's calling Noah out on his undying love for Devon, it was one of the funniest things I read, like Jocelyn has no shame.
I'm romancing Abel, and that scene were he comes out to comfort us was beautiful. Also all that stuff he said about us being allowed to feel upset and angry about Amalia leaving really got to me, because in a situation like that, you would literally not be allowed to feel that way because you know people will think your being selfish, even though your inclined to feel that way, so thank you for that.
I honestly love Noah and Rowan's relationship because they have both lost a sibling, they've both lost their family's, so they have sort of become like each other's siblings, each other's family. Also I love how he gave Rowan Dan's number so that they can get some counselling if they need it, that's some worried, protective older brother shit right there.
I chose to take the counselling. As someone who has been seeing a psychologist for a few years now, I highly value counselling and recommend it to people who I see are struggling. So thank you for that.
Well done on yet another emotional chapter your guys, take care and take it easy😁
Thank you! And yes, Connor snapping at you is foreshadowing.

Dear Rin-chan, i have a request for you. It can be a story or just a headcanon. So my idea was, what if Roger had the chance to raise Ace. Roger hadn't this mysterious illness and he heard from the terrible things that happend on Baterilla. When he gets there, Rouge is already dead and he takes Ace with him. Ace grows up on the Oro Jackson with Shanks and Buggy as his older brothers and Rayleigh as the wine uncle. And Roger being a good, loving and a little bit overprotective father. <3
Hi @lycorisb (dunno why I can't tag u😢) Thank you for your request! I'm new to writing and to Tumblr so I'm really happy that you know about my blog and even ask for a request!!! I hope it's not too boring :< Enjoy, dear ❤
🔥Headcanon🔥
Roger didn't come in time to be with Rouge at her last moment. That's what he regrets the most in his entire life. Need to say that Roger had never ever done one thing which he would regret later. But with Rouge...
Therefore, he swore to himself that he would pour all his heart, his love, and his soul into raising up the son Rouge had left for him. The child is Rouge's incarnation. He is the crystallization of their love. Roger won't let his wife down. He will raise his son to be healthy, happy, and full of pride.
"Your name is Portgas D. Ace, my son! You will take your mother's last name, as a way of expressing gratitude for the great sacrifice and the love she gave you."
With that, he brought Ace back to the Oro Jackson. His son's presence is still in the dark; he can't let the marine know about him just yet.
The Roger crew is more than happy to have their captain's child with them. Especially Rayleigh.
"Oh, look at this little cookie!!! Who's the cutest baby ever? Who's that? Huh? It's youuuuuuu, Ace! You!" Rayleigh often put his face close to baby Ace, cooing and smiling expressively.
And Ace always cackles when Rayleigh's beard touches his skin. His eyes shining and his mouth opens wide, looking so adorable that the whole crew falls in love with him over and over.
Tumblr media
"Quit hugging him, you old boozer!" Roger gets jealous easily because somehow Ace seems to like Rayleigh more than him. Ace never lets Roger hold him for too long.
The pirate king tries to take Ace from Rayleigh's hand, but the baby starts weeping and refuses to let go off of his wine uncle. Being rejected by his own son, Roger sulks by his own in the corner of the ship🥺The whole crew then makes fun of him.
Even Shanks and Buggy, who always tease and pinch Ace, are receiving more attention from his son than Roger the pirate king himself!!!
Oh, captain, parenting is hard, yk! 💔
As time goes by, Ace grows up to be a cheerful, energetic child, a little bit mischievous. He enjoys life on the pirate ship and he is eager to learn anything that seems interesting. Rayleigh teaches him how to fight with a sword, Scooper Gaban teaches him how to navigate, and Shanks and Buggy teaches him how to play tricks on others.
Ace knows that his dad is the most notorious pirate in the whole world. He wants to be a great pirate just like Roger in the future, but Ace only admires his father in silence. He never shows it out, because in real life they don't get along very well.
Roger is a little bit overprotective over Ace, while Ace is a rebellious little brat. He wants to do things his own way and always be too reckless during battles, making Roger worry too much. They all end up fighting with each other afterward.
Rayleigh is so used to this scene now he finds that it's amusing to watch those two quarreling. "Both clumsy and hot-headed. Like father like son, huh?"
He will bet with Shanks to see who will win, while Buggy, not helping anything but enjoys adding insult to injury.
But sometimes there's a peaceful moment between those two. It's time when Roger told Ace about his adventures, his fights, the places he discovered, the people he had met. The stories enthrall Ace so much; the freckled boy listens attentively with his round eyes wide open.
"One day, I will set sail on my own ship, find my own comrades, seek out new lands, and discover the world with my own eyes!" Ace told Roger one day, after listening to the story about Skypie.
"Why, don't you want to be the pirate king like me?" Roger strongly believes that his son has the potential to lead the new era that soon comes in the future.
Ace thinks about it. Then he says, "I aim to be a top pirate, yes, but..." He says his reason and Rogers laughs. The old father feels proud from the bottom of his heart. His son has really grown up to be a healthy, happy, and full of pride young man.
He pats Ace's head and this time, Ace doesn't shoo him away. Roger said, warmly:
"Live the way you want, son! It's your life, your freedom. No matter which path you choose, I'm your father and I'll always be proud of you. Live a life without regret, Ace."
And those words of Roger remain forever in Ace's heart. Live a life of no regrets...
I also have the idea for a whole story, a whole new story with a different plot from the headcanon T-T T-T T-T but somehow I just can't write it down, there's something blocking between my thoughts and the right words I want to write... I'm sorry there's only a headcanon for you. If you want to read a whole story too, maybe I will write it after finishing all of my final exams? Maybe I can send it to you through dm if you ever want to read it. I'm just asking, please let me know!

Christmas with Artem
Fandom: Tears of Themis
Pairings: Artem Wing x reader
Genre: Fluff!
Comments: Eeeeek!❤🌈❤ Merry Christmas to the cutest lil Neeeemoooo!🎄🎄 hehehe hope you have a great day filled with all the food, love and blessing!!!! Love ya lots cutie! Sending all the Christmas sparkles and cheer! @mareaderinsertfanfiction 🎄❤🌈❤
。.*:・’゚:。.*:゚・’゚゚:。’ .*:・’゚:。.*:゚・’゚゚:。’・゚。.*:・’゚: 。.*:・’゚:。.*:゚・’゚
Lights of every colour, yellow, red, blue and green, littered the narrow streets of Stellis as you and Artem strolled leisurely from the courthouse back to the law firm. Another case won. Celestine would most certainly be pleased, not that you couldn’t have done it without him there. Your talents and skills stretch far beyond your years—much like his own— but the ever-pestering Celestine thought it’d be a fantastic idea for him to tag along with you and provide you with some— in her words—“Christmas eve spirit and morale.” Cause who on earth would be crazy enough to work on the eve of Christmas other than the two of you.
Artem’s phone came to life in his pocket, he had ignored the first two beeps and buzzes, but with the relentless fluttering, he eventually decided to spare it a glance. A heavy sigh heaved from his chest, causing a puff of white to escape his nose, his suspicions as to what or rather who was pining for his attention was confirmed— the ever-meddlesome Celestine.
“Take the rest of the night off, and Christmas too,” it had said, well among the threats— for if he decided to go against better advice.
Light blues matching the frozen icicles hanging from the building’s doorways reached out and placed a hand on your shoulder. “Looks like we have the rest of the holiday season off”, he trailed off absent-mindedly, dropping his phone back into his tanned overcoat pocket.
You stopped in your tracks, and Artem could have sworn he had just delivered the worst news of your life at the way your face scrunched into an ever-deepening frown that creased all the way to your brows. Hells, he had a tinge of disappointment too; he was planning on spending Christmas alone in the office, that way… that way, he wouldn’t need to think about how lonely this Christmas would truly be. Not that it bothered him all that much anymore, or so he would like to think.
His hands balled in his pocket, fingers lightly grazing the edges of a velvety ticket he had long since forgotten about. His fingers fiddled with the edges of the paper while the cogs in his head turned to cypher the best way in which to ask you on a “not date”—that is, of course, unless you wanted to go on a date with him, then “date’.
“I-in that case, if you don’t have any plans, perhaps you would be interested in going to the Christmas market— with me, that is.” As the last word left his mouth, a horrifying realisation finally hit him; she planned this. Honestly, receiving that bright pink book scratched full of relationship advice was terrible enough, and now this.
Thankfully, you seemed all too happy to join him at the famed Christmas market which caused him to release a breath he didn’t know he was holding in.
“Then- shall we go,” he turned on his heel and offered his arm with a gentle smile.
It had not taken very long to get to the giant marketplace, filled to the brim with all sorts of loud Christmas decorations and even louder people. Groups of kids smiling and running around with candy floss in hand. Older teens pouting and cursing at the latest losses in the rigged Christmas themed games.
Artem watched all the scenes unfold around him, taking it all in. The elderly couple two-stepping next to the fountain, the family of five laughing jovial as one of their own had just fallen on their rear in an attempt to ice skate and the brunette woman selling roses from her cart, firing up a Christmas romance with a stranger.
His hand bumped against yours absentmindedly, and it was almost as if he were electrocuted at the first sign of contact, brought back down from the clouds above. Why had you not said you were feeling cold sooner? His eyes shifted solely to you then, examining your every feature, eyes trailing the path from your icy cold fingertips up to your reddened nose. He smiled a lopsided grin then; you very much looked like Rudolf, a cute Rudolf, he might add— but as cute as that little red nose of yours was, he could have you freezing or worse, catching a cold on his account.
Without warning, he stopped dead in his tracts, tugging gently on that ice-cold hand of yours to stop smack in the middle of the chattering marketplace. Not a word was said as he removed his scarf and wrapped it securely around your neck, tucking and folding the edges with the utmost care— to ensure that it would do its job efficiently in warding off every threat of cold.
“Artem-, you didn’t have to-, what about you?” you began to protest, your finger curing around the blue and black woollen scarf with the intention of returning it. However, Artem simply lifted his hand in protest, halting you in your movements as his eyes crinkled at the seams with a soft smile. “I- insist, in fact,” he paused and turned to look behind him before giving your hand a gentle squeeze, “would you excuse me for just a moment.”
He quickly scurried off, returning moments later with two paper cups in hand, “I thought some hot chocolate would help warm you up and ward off the chill.” He would have liked to get something more nutritionally dense such as soup, or even more ideally make you something homemade, but alas, this would have to suffice.
He handed the chocolatey beverage to you. It had been topped with a handful of miniature marshmallows and a generous helping of whipped cream. Artem was not exactly one for extremely sweet things, but at that moment, he could help but notice the way the delicate flavours of cinnamon and nutmeg perfectly complemented the bitter chocolate and sickly-sweet melting mellow on top. This drink had perhaps just made it to the top of his winter favourites list or was it due to the warmth radiating from his chest as he watched you happily sip away at the steaming drink.
The two of you continued to wander around the marketplace, stopping every now and again to investigate the wares on offer, when out of the corner of his eye, Artem spotted something he thought you might like. Carefully wrapping his hands around yours, he tugged you towards a hidden alleyway. His broad shoulders blocked the destination’s view from you, as he continued to trudge forward before finally stopping. He made no moves to release your tiny hand as he stepped aside to show you the magical little lane that might interest you.
His features softened, and he wore a faint smile, watching the way your face lit up at the sight. A narrow alleyway filled to the brim with tiny fairy lights, highlighting passages of local poetry sprawled across the ivory walls. To top it all off, at the very end, a giant Christmas tree decorated with a thousand red bows stood tall, waiting to be discovered.
In the past, he might have walked straight past the scenery, thinking nothing much of it, only quietly observing it for a moment or two, before leaving just as quietly as he came. But it was different now, the world seemed to come to life, and a moment that would have felt otherwise meaningless before now was filled with whim and wonder.
An elderly woman wearing a bright yellow scarf and an even brighter smile handed the two of you a pair of lit candles as you slowly made your way closer to the tree, stopping ever so often to read each piece of poetic art on the walls along your way. Laughing merrily as you each made your own assessment and interpretations of it.
Finally, at the end of the alleyway, the two of you stood and watched the handful of carolers singing the olden hymns of Christmas beside the large tree. It was then that the clock struck 12, and Christmas eve had officially turned into Christmas morning with the group of characters all cheering and wishing each other well with hugs and laughter.
“Merry Christmas,” Artem said in a whisper, giving your hand a warm squeeze.
“Merry Christmas,” you returned, pushing yourself up onto your tippy toes and kissing his cheek.
Your melodic voice joined in with the carolers as their song began anew with the vibrant spirit of Christmas while Artem stood beside you, a snowman melting in the snow.

Richard Kruspe - my picks for 2021...
Hope this time next year, i can do a 'Rammstein' picks for the year, but for now...i feel like a look back on 2021-Richard
Best new song: You can't run away (Emigrate), there ars several more i love from the new Emigrate album (which imo is the best of Emigrate ever), but this one is my favorite.
Best sign of bromance: Animated video for 'Always on my mind' with Till, might not be my fave video as a video, or fave animation as an animation, but hey, showing Richard and Till art that outperforms most Tillchard fanart? 10/10!
Most unexplainable IG-action: that shortlived rzkodm account, Joe Letz promoted it, Richard and new ladyfriend Olga 'performed' on it, and then it was gone...who created it? Why was it there? Where did it go? So many questions, no answers..
Most dramatic IG action: the day Richard started promoting the new Emigrate album on his own IG and deleted all previous pics in the proces... or, as it turned, not deleted but archived, and most of them returned a few days later. (The Emigrate page was also stripped of most pics, several returned but far from all..)
Cutest Richard moment: with his daughter Maxime in the You can't run away video behind the scenes
Tumblr media
Most 'Richardest' outfit: many choices, because there have been several outfits varying from 'going all out' to 'not going out at all', but i'm going with the red brocade robe.
Tumblr media
Best look in 'Natural': the behind the scenes shot of the make-up artist (unfortunately deleted pretty soon after), bonus pojnts for showing the 'lazy eye' well and i think that looks cute... now if only he'd let his hair grow out grey, i bet that would look really good on him
Tumblr media
Best news health-wise: that he got out of the post-2019-tour low and refound his love for music, very very happy about that.
Best show of Berlin-support: he worked with several young Berlin artists (photographers, directors, musicians) for the Emigrate album, which might be partly budget-related, but i like that he gave new people a chance and not just stuck with the tried-and-tested group.
Most unexpected appearance: drawing the winner for Olaf Heine's 'win a Rammstein photo' contest
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Biggest uncertainty for an Emigrate fan-event: are they ever going to publish the podcast Richard and Joe Letz did with fans...or will that be lost in the mist of times, never to be heard of again...?
Best mix of old/new: the video to I'm still alive, with parts of younger Richard shot in New York that weren't used before, and now mixed with new footage of old (grey!) Richard
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Best use of a Rubik's cube: see above 😊
Most 'Richard is such a Richard' action: that the song I'm still alive was titled Yeah Yeah Yeah until basically after the release of The Persistence of Memory, and now there are, i think, references to both titles depending on where you look, because they couldn't change it everywhere in time 😁
Best anticipation moment: confirming, in interviews, that we are getting a new Rammstein album next year, and confirming that they are shooting a video (where he got injured on Paul's ass-of-steel), i mean, i love the last Emigrate album, but Rammstein is still my main music 🖤❤

Rotten OT4 + 002 ❤
I love OT4!!
When I started shipping them:
I actually didn’t ship them right away, I was too obsessed with Jaylos. I’m sure it was some fanfics that got me into it, probably Detours, even though that’s Jaylos and Malvie, not OT4. The bond between Evie and Jay as well as the similarities between Mal and Carlos. I wrote my first OT4 fic before D2 though, so maybe like spring of 2017?
My thoughts:
I love them. These four are my babies, but they are also each others’ babies. They protect each other and care for each other and accept each other. Their relationship was forged in necessity and now exists because they love each other.
What makes me happy about them:
The fact that they bonded on the Isle for survival and it grew into something deeper. They don’t need each other in Auradon, not to survive, but they need each other to keep sane.
What makes me sad about them:
The films do a poor job of showing how close they all are. The films really focus on the Evie and Mal part, but not the rest. In D2, Mal has a cute scene with Carlos (the truth gummy) and one with Jay (after girl talk), but that’s really it. I don’t think we ever see Evie have a one-on-one scene with either of the boys in the whole trilogy.
Things done in fanfic that annoys me:
Avoiding the fact that all four of them are extremely different people and it never causes any tension/confusion with their separate passions. Mal likes power and art, Evie likes fashion and science and kids, Carlos likes technology and animals, Jay likes sports and stealing. Of course they support each other, but the four of them are very different people.
Also, bringing Ben in. I usually stop reading OT4 fics that become OT5.
Things I look for in fanfic:
MULTI CHAPTERS! One-shots are great, but give me a story that is long and has a full plot and twists and cliff-hangers. Drag it out and let me eagerly await an update every week!
My wishlist:
More ABO please!! They make the cutest pack!! And an enemies to lovers fic where they all hate each other, but then grow to love each other.
Honestly, too, more sex fics. I think there’s one fic out there with OT4 sex at all.
Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other:
Ughhh. Carlos can be with Jane, Mal can be with Uma or Audrey, Evie can be with Ben and Jay can be with Audrey or Lonnie.
My happily ever after for them:
Evie gets more kids off the Isle and Mal, Carlos and Jay help volunteer and lead things. Mal gets recognized for her art and Evie, Jay and Carlos are so proud of her. Carlos runs an animal shelter and Jay, Evie and Mal all volunteer. Jay becomes a big sports star and Carlos, Mal and Evie are at every game. They don’t have biological kids because it’s too much, but they love all the Isle kids.
Thanks for asking, love!
Ask me stuff!

omg that scene in season one when he called Tin because he was so mad and jealous and he was like "tf u doin with Pete? U can't do that!! We already kissed!" IS LEGIT ONE OF MY FAVE SCENES!!
So I wonder if we only gonna see Can lurking and puffin his cheeks adorably or something more?? The thing I want the most is for Can to tell Tin that he was being jealous of him UGHH Just imagine him talking fastly and and being his cute self and Tin just smiles aAaA!
And yeah, you are right! Pete ain't there, and there's no way Ley would ship Tin with some girl, and we also haven't seen Tin hanging around with anyone so,, maybe she will ship him with Ae?? That sounds weird but we gonna see Ae and Tin interacting in next episode so maybe they will interact more from now on, like Tin updating Ae about Pete and Ley noticing that and thinking that they look great tgt? I'm really curious about that one!
And I've been randomly thinking that I really need some scene where Can talks to his mom about his relationship problems, or just Can telling his mom that he has boyfriend:( I NEED THAT, I need soft family moments
THAT IS ONE OF MY FAVE SCENES TOO! And he’s like “bitch if I found out you did anything with Pete I will come over and punch you in the face, I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE” sjdhfjdkfhgkjfdg so so funny and adorable. Also I love how Can literally thinks any problem can be solved by punching people jshgfkdjhg baby 
I’m sure there’s gonna be lurking, puffing cheeks, and some angsty football playing and Techno and Job are gonna have to deal with an incomprehensible Can. BUT YES. I WANT THAT TOO. fmhdkjfgh ahhhh Can jealous is actually the cutest thing ever?? 
You are so totally right. It’s gotta be Ae. Who else could it possible be? Tin and Ae will become friends and Ley will come over to watch Can’s football game or something and see them and be all “😍😍😍😍 OTPPPPP” But I cannot even imagine Tin and Ae having much chemistry sdjhdfjkg i’m curious to see how they pull it off?? 
OMG YES. That is seriously what has been missing??? I reaaaaallly love family moments, and Can and his mom’s relationship is so sweet and I NEED more scenes between the two of them!! ❤ As much as I love Can and Ley’s chaotic relationship, I don’t think she’s the person who should be giving Can any advice hfdkjgh
