So many kid's toys these days just. Arn't fun. They're designed to be COLLECTED rather than PLAYED with. Everything is a fucking blindbag. Materials are flimsy and cheap and designs don't hold up to an actual child throwing them around. And it's all so EXPENSIVE, even accounting for inflation.
Tumblr media
To expand on my thoughts here, I'm unrolling a Twitter thread I made about this trend. (with some additions)
Tumblr media
The Big H's handling of mainline figs is... distressing, of late. Very little push for show mains, oversupport of already saturated legacy characters, and some frankly unsettling engineering and materials choices (esp in Cyberverse).
Increase in overall fragility, thinner parts, styrene-on-styrene joints that will go floppy in a few months of light play, very little "clicks" or locks solidly... the passion is clearly in the collector's end, and that's just bass ackwards.
Tumblr media
This repugnus would have been amazing triumph from Mego in 1970s. But for a mainline big H TF line in the 2020s? This is a backslide. And before anyone brings up that it's from the kids' line, that's the point. They're KIDS, they should get MORE care and effort in their merch.
Every toy you make might be a kid's only birthday gift or holiday present. Toys are /given/ to children, and if the work is subpar, you make a chump out of grandma. You won't be there to blame if it breaks or disappoints.
It seriously drives me nuts seeing how far the stuff-for-kids industries have fallen. There's no brands without the work, but as the poet DMX said: "these cats done forgot what work is."
All your blockbuster superhero empires start in the pulp gutters. Compared to the movies toys, games and comics will never be profitable ENOUGH to be worth it on a billion-dollar scale ledger.
"Give me mighty oaks! There's no profit in acorns!"
Tumblr media
If you want the stuff that makes the Michael Bay blockbuster, you have to start with the stupid goofy cartoon no one had seen before where anxiety over the oil crisis was acted out by robotic Punch and Judy puppets. How many studios would greenlight TMNT or TF sight unseen today?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you make toys and cartoons and video games, your job is to make kids happy. How is that not sacred? If anything is sacred it should be that.
Art is the act of evoking emotion, and fun is an emotion (what else could it be described as?) and it is SO IMPORTANT.
I fear that gets lost in the "what to do over next?" rush. Every artist at those companies has a dozen amazing ideas in their back pocket that won't get a chance to become the next Transformers because a studio is terrified they'll make Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors instead.
Tumblr media
Since the world is run by Captain Planet villains, I wouldn't bat an eye if we found out venture capital was a ploy by some disgruntled warlock who just hates the goddamn Care Bears.
Tumblr media
Just some dick at Bear Sterns singing "There's no room for joy on a spreadsheet" to a weaselly sidekick.
Cuz guys, we've got companies that make GAMES for CHILDREN hiring the Pinkertons. I repeat. Games. For. Children. That's not normal. That's not a normal thing. That is a very disturbing thing.
Tumblr media
And its hard to even discuss without sounding like a frickin' Care Bear myself. Because how do you sum up the creeping dread that the support beams are being mined thin, and everything fun for kids will go the way of Toys-R-Us, dragged down like Artax.
Tumblr media
I'm not advocating pure altruism here. There's plenty of money to be made giving kids an awesome experience. It's investing in future fandom. Real Brand loyalty. If you want the blockbuster 15 years from now, get them hooked on the fun cartoon now. The value-add always pays off.
For every Transformers or He-Man there's going to be several Robotix-es or Power Lords. That's a risk. A risk worth taking. New ideas should be easier and cheaper to bring to fruition now than ever. But the system won't let it happen.

Am I the AH for refusing to be friends with someone who flat out hated me?
From ages 22-26 I was friends with R 29-33. R had only worked once in her life which was mcdonalds for 3 months to buy anime merchandise her grandma didn't want to buy her. R's grandma is in her late 80's now just for reference. R's granny had married a rich military dude who was on his 3rd marriage or so then died, so she got all his assets which included like 5 houses, 3 were being rented out which is how she'd get her income. So R never worked and just sat at home getting into internet fights. My friend had invited her into our discord and I'd be civil with her despite knowing how shes been with others. I was working full time for shit pay and going to school full time too. R was very, idk how else to say it, but she always demanded our attention. The other people in the server were 5 from ages from 16-22, we never used how much older she was against her, but she really didn't acknowledge or respect alot of us were in school. Many times we'd had to tell her to step back and set boundaries with us. It did result in people leaving the server. So, in summer of 2019 R decided to go to college. She got alot of financial aid and said her goal was to become a therapist cause she was everyone's "mom". That stuff wasn't even remotely true, she was always a total bitch to everyone. R unfortunately didn't understand that going to school means having to put the work in. She was more interested in spending the financial aid on gacha, anime merch, and other stuff. She lost her financial aid after the spring semester of 2020, and refused to talk to her school about the pandemic stress and other shit. During this time, she tried making me do her assignments and I kept saying no or only helped a little. I had my own assignments, school, and I was stressed. Well, when she lost her financial aid due to academic probation, she blamed me. When the pandemic hit my school did this thing where you'd get partially refunded your semester depending on how you did. I was so thankful for that since I barely scraped by to pay for school. R was so fucking nasty about it. I didn't tell my friends that to gloat, I actually said that before she lost her financial aid. She said I didn't deserve it, cause people like her struggled more. Which is fucking weird since I'm a first gen POC and made a few bucks above minimum wage where I live. I didn't even enjoy my time at school cause of the stress and never having money. So she kept harassing me for getting government aid. I wasn't eligible for financial aid! My parents weren't even eligible for food stamps and we always fucking struggled. But I didn't deserve help, who cares if R is a cis white woman in her 30's that only worked once for a few months, she has it harder. Then R left our server when the pandemic started getting nastier, alot of us struggled but we stayed close in the discord. Then one day I reached out to R in late 2021 to say happy birthday and she said "whose this? New phone." I was hurt she didn't keep my number, but whatever. In 2022 she reached out to me for gossip cause I broke up with someone. Then now in 2023 she reached out cause she wants resources to be a vtuber. I'm sorry, she was shitty to me, I've been struggling, and she reaches out for that? Idk even know how I'd be able to help her with that. I told a friend from our old server and she told me how she had been doing R's assignments for school, but stopped cause she was getting stressed cause she had her capstone class that semester. So wow. R basically didn't do shit for school and gets pissy i get some financial relief. I then had another mutual friend tell me how R had told them she sent me a gift and I didn't send her one, one year. Uh? I tried. I ordered something online for her, and the company sold out, but kept my shit on back order. So R got it like a month late, it was a Christmas gift and I explained it to her, sent her screenshot of when i placed the order and sent her an Amazon gift card as an apology. So she bad mouths me for something out of my control?
I've been getting "hey" messages from R lately, and idk. I'm so done with her.
What are these acronyms?

r/AmITheAsshole: u/throwaway478wwx
AITA if I tell my "husband" I love him?
Throw away because my siblings and friends are here. Don't roll your eyes, please. It's very complicated. So I (34M) have been married to my incredible husband Z (34M) for the last 8 years. We went to the same high school but actually ran into different circles. Z, who was a straightA student, didn't like me and my friend circle. Things worsened after I accidentally ruined his science fair project. High school ended with bad blood between us. His older brother, who was a few years senior to us, was my sister's classmate, and he tried to mediate between us, but Z really hated me and would get huffy every time we met.
We met again in Uni. Z seemed more open to the idea of a civil relationship, and things improved tremendously once I gifted him 2 rabbits for his birthday. Z had the cutest crush on our classmate M and would get so flustered when I asked him about M.
In our final year, all of us got very drunk in a party, and I lost the drinking game. As a punishment, I was tasked with safely escorting Z back to our dorm. Just my luck, for such a calm and self-controlled person, Z is an agent of chaos when drunk. We broke into the nearby aquarium to look at the sting-rays, went into a Mcdonald where Z proceeded to buy all the chicken wings as a gift for me and tried to fight a mirror for 'staring at the love of his life'. I somehow managed to calm him down and took him back to the dorm.
Fast forward a year, M suddenly announced her relationship with someone else. I was extremely surprised, but not only Z stoically bore the news, the rest of my friends were very chill about it too. In fact, they seemed more annoyed at me for making a fuss. My angel of a sister, who never spoke a harsh word in her life, told me I was lucky I was so stinking cute.
I tried my best to support Z in this difficult time. We spent most of our free time together. In fact, I invited Z to my sister's wedding to cheer him up. Incidentally, we kinda discovered a big conspiracy to harm Z's brother and his boyfriend, and Z's family was very taken with me. His mom started to joke that she'll steal me to be her own son. Even Z's very stern uncle seemed to soften up.
Finally, M announced her wedding when we were 26. I hastily planned a trip as a means to distract Z. We backpacked and hiked. One night, we got roaring drunk and woke up the next day in bed with each other. Even worse, drunk us thought it was a good idea to apply for a marriage certificate online and make an announcement on Facebook that we were getting married. Our families were blowing up our phones. They asked us how could we do this? How could we exclude them from the happiest day of our life and not give them the chance to celebrate? Before our hungover brains could explain anything, Z's brother was dispatched to retrieve us, and our parents were looking at the wedding venue and cakes.
Our mothers combined are a force to reckon with. I tried to explain things, but mom said she thought she raised me better, and Z's otherwise very kind brother told me he'd feed me into a woodchipper if I backed out of the wedding.
Long story short, we got married that spring. We planned to let things settle a bit, but disaster struck. A friend of ours had a baby cousin whose parents suddenly passed away in an accident. The baby's nearest kin was his grandma, who was very frail and terminal, and my friend didn't have the means to support the baby. Z and I promptly applied to adopt the baby.
Our little radish is almost 9 this year. Z is not only a great dad, but he's an incredibly good husband, too. He's kind, warm, sweet, and patient. He's a wonderful cook. We are compatible in every way, and I mean every possible way. My parents love him. And I think I have fallen in love with him too. But would I be an asshole if I told him that I loved him? We have a good thing going on here. I don't want to rock the boat.
Update 1: Thank you so much for your kind words. I have decided to confess to my husband. Wish me luck.
Update 2: To the person who DMed me calling me "so dumb that light can enter through one ear and exit via another," JC, I know your writing style. Push your luck, and the whole of reddit will know what happened in our third year.
Update 3: So, I told Z that I loved him. He was reading our baby boy's half yearly report. Have I told you guys how handsome he looks with his glasses on? He raised his eyes and said, " And I love 'my name' too. Always have." So I guess that's settled? We have been in love for the last decade? That's good. Thank you for all your support. And I love you too, Jie.

- He was adopted by Laura and Thomas but Tricia is their biological child.
- Struggled a lot with identity issues when growing up because he didn’t know much about his birth family.
- Laura being the angel she is worked extra hard to make sure Craig was in touch with his birth culture. Took him to a lot of events and tried to cook the food to the best of her ability.
- Out of all the families in South Park I think the Tucker family is the healthiest.
- Craig decided to not put a label on his sexuality. He just wants to go with the flow and see where life takes him.
- That being said it took a long time for him to accept he was attracted to guys. He had a lot of internalised homophobia because of the culture in South Park.
- He was petrified when he realised he had feelings for Tweek.

My neighbour Rúben | Chapter 17

"That was a nice car, wasn't it?" grandma said when I arrived at her house.
"It's just a car" I shrugged.
"Is it his? Did he drive you all the way from Manchester?"
"Who?" I said, playing dumb but already feeling my face burning.
"Your neighbour. The one you definitely don't fancy."
"Who do you not fancy?" grandad asked, showing up out of nowhere.
"Her neighbour."
"Rodri?"
"I already told you it's not him, grandad." 
"But you said his name starts with an R and he is the only one."
"And she also said that he wasn't a player. But that car was very football player like. So big and expensive..."
"You are not going to let it go, are you?" I said, letting out a big sigh.
"We are noisy, sweetheart. What can I say" grandad shrugged.
"Well, if you want me to ask him to get us some tickets for the City-Arsenal game, you better behave yourself."
"Wait, wait, wait" grandad said. "Seriously?"
"Yep. Next to Arsenal's bench if you want."
"I won't say another word, then" he said.
"Does that mean that you will finally invite us to visit you?" grandma asked.
"Only if you behave."
"We will. Won't we, love?" grandad said.
"We will" she smiled.
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
"It'll be ok, sweetie" grandma said, giving my hand a little squeeze.
We were back at my parent's house. My old house.
My mother was throwing a party to celebrate her 50th birthday, and she had somehow convinced my dad to let me come. Apparently, he had relaxed a bit since I had gotten a job even if it was as a nanny. But with him, you never know. 
"Oh, you came!" my mother said when she saw me, giving me a hug.
"I promised I would, didn't I?"
"Thank you" she said, whipping away a tear. "You look so good. You are like glowing, which means that you must be happy."
"I am, yes. Happy birthday" I said, giving her my present.
"Oh, you didn't have to get me anything! Can I open it now?"
"It's your birthday. You can do whatever you want" I smiled.
"Oh, darling! It is beautiful!" my mum said.
"Do you like it?"
"I love it! Since when do you have good taste picking gifts?" she laughed.
"I had a bit of help" I confessed. 
"Well, then tell you helper thank you from me" she said, hugging me again.
"I will."
"There you... Are" my father said from behind my mum.
"Hello dad."
"Hi" he said. 
"Look at her. Doesn't she look good?" my mum says.
He just nodded, his eyes fixed on the floor.
"Let's go sit and catch up for a bit before the other guests arrive" she said, grabbing my arm with one hand and my dad's with the other.
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
"So you got yourself a job, uh?" my father said. The party had been going for a few hours, and that was the first time he had talked to me directly, probably encouraged by the couple of drinks he had had.
"Yep."
"A nanny for a posh divorced woman."
"She isn't posh. She comes from a family like ours."
"But she still is divorced, isn't she?"
"She is, yes. Is that a problem?"
"No, not all" he said, taking another sip from his drink. "And you teach piano to her daughter."
"I do."
"Is she good?"
"She isn't bad, gets everything pretty fast. But she's more interested in football these days."
"Football" he snorted. "That will take her nowhere." 
"But at least she is doing what she likes, not what others like."
"I'm sorry" my dad muttered after a couple of minutes of awkward silence. 
"What?"
"I'm sorry" he said again. "For what I did to you. I shouldn't have been so... You know."
"You shouldn't have, no."
"Do you think... That maybe one day... We'll be able to... Have a normal relationship?" he asked, nervously playing with his glass.
"You already said sorry, which is the most difficult part. So maybe."
"Good... Good" he said, going back to the party. 
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
"He said sorry?" 
"Yep."
"It's a beginning" Rúben said. While I was with my family he had stayed in London meeting with some friends, and now he was also driving me back together to Manchester. 
"Yeah" I sighed. "But I don't think he'll like you."
"Why not?" Rúben chuckled.
"He thinks football players are dumb, earn way too much money, and that it is a pointless career choice."
"He isn't wrong about the money. But I'll prove him wrong about everything else" he said with that smirk of his.

It’s My Party and I’ll Cry if I Want To-Buck/Bucky
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Summary: Bucks parents forgot about his birthday once again, Bucky certainly did not.
WC: 4, 040
C/W: Mentions of church and smut at the end (can be skipped!)
MOTA Masterlist!
Tumblr media
Buck woke up a little earlier and took a little more time getting ready. He took more time picking out his outfit, standing in the mirror dabbing some of his cologne behind his ears. He knew it would drive Bucky up the wall later when he inevitably would be kissing at Bucks neck.
He picked out a new dark brown sweater that definitely complimented his blue eye. He had excitement for today, not that his birthday was ever particularly a big day. It fell not long after new years and it just seemed to get pushed down and forgotten about because of the Holidays.
So of course this year would probably be no different.
Buck came down the steps seeing a familiar sight in the kitchen of his parents packing Adelaide and Zoe’s lunches. Meatball sitting at the girls feet waiting for them to drop something.
“Good morning,” Buck said, clearing his throat coming into the kitchen grabbing his lunch from the fridge.
“Morning, Gale.” His moms voice frantic with a little edge, scribbling notes on the napkins for the girls.
“So, are we still going to dinner? Is it alright if John comes? I assumed but I just wanted to ask first…”
Mary looked up at him, her eyebrows raised and her eyes a little wide. She turned her head glancing at the white board calendar in the kitchen then back at Buck. “Oh sweety…”
And Buck knew that they had forgotten.
“Happy birthday Gale!” Zoe came running over to Buck giving him a hug Addy not far behind, their dad following in with their empty cereal bowls.
“Thank you,” Buck smiles down at the two blonde girls seeing the realization hit his dads face too.
“We’re going to have to reschedule, sweetie…I’m sorry your father and I have a work dinner meeting and the girls are going to Grandmas. I’m sorry I don’t know how we missed it, I swore it was next week.” Buck’s mom sighed as she wrapped him in a hug, “Here why don’t we do this?”
The short blonde woman went buzzing over to her purse sitting on the table and dug before pulling out her wallet, “You can have John and Curt over and you can order a pizza? I know it won’t make up for dinner at Rosalines but we can probably fit that into next week?”
“Okay, I gotta get going, I have to pick up John.” Buck pointed towards the door, he loved his parents but he just really wanted to get out of the house. He wasn’t expecting much anyways but at least they promised dinner?
Buck smiled to himself like a proud boyfriend watching Bucky come out the front door holding a large container and a balloon. Rushing over to the car, John set his container and his backpack in the back seat before climbing into the front. “Happy birthday to you!” Bucky's smile grew wide before pressing a kiss to his cheek.
“Thank you,” Buck's cheeks began to turn red. He knew Bucky wouldn’t let Bucks birthday slide without making the biggest deal. He tried throwing him a surprise party last year. But Hambone and Douglass ended up accidentally bringing it up in front of Buck.
“How does it feel to be a legal adult? Should we go buy scratch offs and get matching tattoos?”
“That sounds like a terrible idea.”
“What if we win it big from scratch off? We could buy a house and have sex in every room.”
“Do you know how much houses cost in this economy?” Buck let out a laugh, gently rubbing John's thigh.
“No, because I don’t pay attention in econ,” Bucky flicked him two finger guns, “Oh I also made you a cake! I was gonna put it in Ms. Argyle's room for the day, then we can eat it later or we can eat it at lunch but then we’d probably have to share it with the others. You know how those volchars are”
“You made me a cake?” Buck glanced at him, seeing the wide smile on the other's face.
“Yeah I frosted it too and there’s strawberries on it.” Bucky felt proud of himself; he knew how Buck didn’t really like his birthday, “Are we still going out to dinner at that one fancy place?”
“Uh…no. They forgot.” Buck tripped over his words, “Too busy to fit me into their calendar. She gave me some money to order a pizza and said you and Curt could come over.”
“Oh shit, I’m sorry, Buck.” John knew this wasn’t anything new, Buck would have something important and his parents wouldn’t work him into their schedules. He wasn’t near the top of their priority list anways.
“It’s fine, it’ll probably be more fun this way. You, me, Curt, some shitty movie and the cake you made.”
“That does sound kind of fun, maybe we can go for a couple rounds of birthday sex then.” Bucky punched him lightly in the shoulder. Buck had been looking forward to the birthday sex…he wasn’t a man of lying.
Bucky rested his hand on the top of Bucks, squeezing it lightly, “We should skip and drive out of town and get a hotel room.”
“As appealing as that sounds, I have a calc test today,” Buck sighs, pulling into the high school's parking lot.
“For my birthday we should plan, skip and go get matching face tattoos.”
“We are not getting matching face tattoos!”
“Hey!” Croz slapped his hand down on Bucks hood as they came to a hard stop, nearly hitting him and Bubbles.
“Sorry boys!” Bucky rolled down the window.
“I’ll give you a break, because it’s your birthday.” Croz smiled walking over to Buck's window, “Happy birthday, old man.”
“You’re next Croz!” Buck points at him as he pulls into a parking spot since Croz had the next birthday.
“Now we must seize our day, Buck.” Bucky patted the other's leg, “I promise that today is going to be a good day.” John unbuckled and leaned over the center council cradling the side of Buck's face, “And the wait for sex will be worth it.” Bucky pressed a gentle, teasing kiss to his lips, “I assure you, Gale. You’ll be glad the house is empty.”
Buck pressed his lips back into Bucky’s but he pulled away teasingly, “You’ll be starving for it later.” Bucky opened the door, getting out, Buck rolled his eyes, throwing his head back dramatically before doing the same.
“Whats up Queers!” Curt came jogging up behind them from where he had gotten off the bus then seeing the two walking to the doors, “Happy birthday Buck.” He patted him on the shoulder and pressed a quick kiss to his cheek.
“Hey!” Bucky rejoiced as if he hadn’t seen Curt in years.
“How’s the birthday?” Curt put a strong hand on Bucks shoulder.
“Just the usual, my parents forgot.” Gale shrugged nonchalantly.
“Damn I’m sorry that happened again.”
“It’s fine we're gonna have a good day regardless, right John?” Buck nudged his boyfriend.
“Hell yeah we are! You should come eat cake with me and Buck later!” John walked a bit further ahead walking backwards, making Buck a little nervous because the cake was still in his hands.
“I gotta work tonight, someones gotta run the fuckin’ Taco Bell.” Curt sighed holding the door open for them.
“What!? Don’t they know that this is a national holiday?” Bucky protested.
“Well it’d probably be more like a bank holiday, unfortunately.” Curt snickered, elbowing their sides.
Unfortunately, Curts right, his parents wouldn’t even notice if his birthday was a national holiday. Now he just wanted the school day to go by fast so he could be with John.
“We have to take them to Grandma Ethels?” Bucky grumbled looking at the longline of cars in the pickup line at the elementary school.
“Yes, we won’t stay long I promise. I’m just going to run in, you don’t have to come in.” Buck didn’t exactly want to go to his Grandmas either but he had to drop off Addy and Zoe. If he tries to leave without coming in she would chew his ear off on how bad of an influence she thinks Bucky is. She deeply despised him since he first came to the family Christmas. His other cousins brought their boyfriends and girlfriends. Why couldn’t he bring his?
Buckys always a hit with Bucks aunties though, which made for a good time. but across the room would be his Grandma silently judging him for bringing ‘the devil’ into her family.
“I’m sorry that she acts that way in front of you. You don’t deserve that and it’s not okay.” Buck glanced over at him and brought one of his hands down to his thigh.
“I love you.”
“I love you too.”
“Oh look!” Bucky broke out a smile while they pulled up next and saw Addy and Zoe waving at them before they rushed getting into the back.
“Hi Bucky!” The girls leaned over the seat hugging him. Addy and Zoe were easily Bucky's second biggest fans right behind Buck and Curt.
“We made you a card,” Zoe smiled, unzipping her backpack and taking out the card.
“That's so nice of you guys,” Buck glanced in the rearview mirror at them. Bucky took the card from them showing Buck as he tried to keep his eyes on the road.
“Is this us?” Bucky cooed pointing at the two stick people holding hands with a heart over them holding hands.
“Yeah!” Addy pointed at the pink card.
“Because you guys are in love,” Zoe giggled, “I drew Gale and Addy drew Bucky.”
“You guys are so talented I think it looks just like me,” Bucky held the card up next to his face.
“Yes, the next Michael Angelo and Davinci.” Buck agreed, sharing a smile with Bucky and giving his thigh a small squeeze.
“Do we have to go to Grandmas?” Addy pouted in the back, the girls were on a similar page about their Grandma. She always had really weird strict rules that certainly hadn’t changed since Gale was younger.
“Yeah, why not? Grandma doesn’t let us watch any cartoons and she wears too much perfume.” Zoe whispered the last part causing an eruption of laughter from the entire car. As much as Buck didn’t want to have to leave them with her he also didn’t want to have to be responsible for them…it also might’ve been because he had been looking forward to Bucky bending him over the kitchen counter.
“Because I have plans with my friends and mom and dad have a work dinner. I don’t even know what time they’ll be back tonight. Here, how about after school tomorrow we can go get ice cream?” Buck suggested trying to keep the peace.
“Can I come for ice cream?” Bucky asked, pointing at himself sticking out his bottom lip slightly.
“Of course you can come, you don’t have to ask.”
“Okay I can’t promise you that this is going to be like the best cake you’ve ever had. I followed some recipes on Tik Tok and…voila.” Buck took the container off the cake. It was a heart shaped messily chocolate frosted cake with ‘HBD Buck’ in messy white frosting at the top. Strawberries cut in half garnished the dollops of frosting on the border.
“You’re too sweet, I mean it John.” Buck slapped his ass lightly causing the other to turn bright red.
“I’m gonna sing to you and it’s going to be so good I’ll win a Grammy for my performance!” Bucky announced as he seemed to magically pull out a box of birthday candles out of his pocket. Buck knew all of this was incredibly cheesy but he knew how much of a romantic Bucky is…he also liked rose petals and candles on the bed…and well Buck liked the romantics of it all too.
“I guess this is your one day in the entire year where I cannot deny you the right to sing.” Buck knocked his elbow into his boyfriend's side.
“You love when I sing, you can’t keep lying to yourself.” Bucky stuck the candles in the cake. Today he was focused on Buck and he just wanted to make his day better. He could see in the way his shoulders seemed to sag more every time he saw him and the glow in his eyes was just not as bright as it should be.
Bucky grabbed his lighter from his pocket and lit the five candles on the cake.
“Happy birthday to you…happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Gale. Happy birthday to you!” Bucky sang to him Meatball sitting at their feet seemingly howling along to Bucky's scratchy voice. Buck blew out the candles silently wishing for a good and amazing year for them. Then he felt Bucky's lips pressed to his cheek, the familiar little mustache tickling his skin.
“What’d you wish for?”
“Can’t tell or it won’t come true.”
“Did you wish for me to grow a thicker mustache so I can gel it?”
“Hell no.”
Bucky shook his head grabbing a knife from the knife block, Buck quickly took it out of his hands. “No knives for you, remember home ec last year when you almost stabbed me?”
“That was an accident. How was I supposed to know the water was going to boil over? It almost burned my hand.” Bucky threw his arms up in the air dramatically with that silly, dopey smile on his face. Buck truly wouldn't have cared if John accidentally stabbed him if it meant him not burning his hand.
“Why don’t you get two plates down, Gordon Ramsey?”
Bucky definitely wasn’t the kind of guy who knew his way around the kitchen. He knew how to make ramen in the microwave and that was about it.
Buck definitely is impressed by the cake as he cuts into it. It smelled good and it looked good. “Did you make this by yourself?”
“Well I Facetimed Croz and he gave me some tips. But other than that, yeah. Maybe I did actually learn a few things in home ec.” Bucky furrowed his eyebrows, his face deep in thought but quickly pulled from it as Buck slid the plate with his slice over to him. They both leaned on the counter as they both took a bite, Bucky's face puckering a bit, his lips then pursing together.
It was absolutely terrible. But Buck wasn’t going to show that, he smiled through his bite and swallowed hard, “This is really good.”
“Really? Because I think it tastes like shit.” Bucky snickered, breaking the silence.
Buck felt a wash of relief somewhat fall off his body, it was true though. He would sit here and eat the most vile thing ever and pretend to like it if Bucky made it. That's just how they were, they'd do just about anything to please the other.
“Yeah, wanna go buy a cake from Walmart?”
“Hell yeah.”
The two sat on the couch with the small cake resting on Bucks lap as the two of them just had two forks and no care in the world. They had picked some movie to watch and it was proving to be as boring as watching paint dry. Bucky leaned against Buck, his head resting on his shoulder looking up at him as he brought another bite of cake up to his mouth.
Bucky reached up and gently nudged Buck's hand forcing some frosting to get on his face. “Oops,” he giggled, swiping the frosting off of Buck's nose with his finger and putting it in his mouth.
Buck swallowed hard as he felt that familiar feeling in his pants. Not quite an erection but just that warm feeling. Buck quickly put the cake on the coffee table catching Bucky's hips as he launched himself at Buck's face. John brought his hands up to the others face holding him as he stuck his tongue down Gales throat.
Buck could feel his dick get the rest of the way hard as he began grinding into John's knee between his legs. “God you’re so beautiful.” Bucky mumbled against his lips as he put a hand on Bucks bicep squeezing his muscles, “Have you been working out, Gale?
“I have, what about you, John?” Buck rested his forehead against Buckys, sliding his icy hands under John's hoodie feeling his abs. He knew every inch of John's body like it was his own, he could identify him by hands alone. God, he loved his hands…
Gale wrapped his hand around Bucky's wrist and brought his thumb up to his mouth before wrapping his lips around it.
John let out a small whimper as he watched Gale take his hand. His eyes were closed as he sucked on his thumb but Bucky quickly replaced it with his middle and pointer finger. Buck swallowed against them letting out a small groan, “You’re so fuckin hot. Do you want it now?”
“Bent over the counter,” Gale mumbled against John's fingers. He watched Bucky's face turn bright red and his lips pull up into a devious smile.
“I’ll be right back?” Bucky smirked, hopping off the couch and be-lining it to the stairs. Buck stood up off the couch and put Meatball in his kennel in the office. If they didn’t put him in the kennel he’d sit there and howl the entire time or just kinda stare at them.
Bucky came bouncing down the stairs, the bottle of lube being tossed back and forth in his hands, “Hey that's my job!” John came jogging over and slapped Bucks hands, hooking his fingers into Bucks belt loops pulling him closer. Buck being forced to give up on taking his shirt off. John smirked, satisfied with Buck.
Buck presses his lips back into Johns gently nudging his knee back to sit back down. John took a step back, his hands on Buck's waist pulling them back down onto the couch. Quickly deciding to flip around, John back straddling Bucks lap surely grinding his cock against his thigh. John felt for the bottom seam of Buck's shirt, shiming it up off his body. Trailing wet hot kisses from his mouth down the side of his neck. John began sucking a hickey into Buck's boney collarbone seemingly leaving a trail of small bites as John got on his knees on the floor. Undoing Gales belt, he began palming at the ever growing bulge in his pants. Buck let out an airy moan. His head tipping back, letting out a frustrated grunt looking up.
John had stopped his palming to undo his belt, “Hurry.” Gale let out a small whimper pushing his hands down to undo his button and zipper. John smirks up at him, teasingly pulling down his pants. He did it as slowly as possible, not breaking eye contact with Gale. The other squirming and squeezing his thighs together, “You can’t tease it’s my birthday.”
“You’re so ridiculous.”
John pulled Gales boxers down, his hard cock smacked against his stomach.
“God you’re so beautiful.” John spoke gazing down at Gale's plump, pink cock. Wrapping a hand around the base John ran his tongue around the tip of it.
Gale gasped, grabbing a fist full of John’s messy brown curls. John felt encouragement from him sitting back on his knees as he swiped his fingers through a chunk of frosting from the cake. Gale felt his body go rigid watching John smear the frosting down the underside of his cock.
“Oops.” John chuckled to himself, swallowing Gale's entire cock, flattening his tongue out and licking the frosting off. The knot in Gale's stomach grew tighter as John pulled his cock back from his mouth with a pop noise. A small bit of frosting and pre cum running from his lips to his chin. God he was so hungry for John right now, considering even abandoning get bent over the counter just so he could fuck John right here on the couch. That idea got scrapped fast, John pressing his lips back into Gales. Gale tasting the sweetness of his own cum mixing with the frosting,
“Let's get this off.” Gale pulled John's shirt off and tossing it mindlessly onto the floor.
“I can’t wait any longer,” Gale whined while wrapping his legs around John's waist. The other didn’t even take a second thought wrapping his hands around Gales' ass picking him up. Carrying him over to the kitchen island he set Gale on the counter then tearing off his own pants. John waited patiently all week to get to bend Gale over and the anticipation was building in his own stomach.
“Come on beautiful,” John whispered gruffly, grabbing Gale by his thighs and pulling him off the counter, “Do you want me to work your sweet little ass open for me?” Landing a loud smack against the blonde's ass.
“Yes please,” Gale whimpered, leaning on the counter and spreading his legs just the slightest. Without warning he rocked forward feeling John shove two lubed up fingers into him. Gale grunting biting down on his lip, “fuck.” He whined as John scissored his fingers, Gale pushing his hips back against him, “I’m ready.”
John, satisfied with him grabbed the lube off the table squirting some into his hand then working his own cock. “Look at you Gale. All pretty just for me.”
Gale's face got warm, blushing red across his cheeks. John rested his head against his entrance for a moment, “Ready beautiful?”
“Please,” Gale whimpered, relaxing himself as John slid his length in, wrapping his hands around Gale's hips squeezing them.
“Oh you feel so good,” John spoke leaning forward as he began thrusting his hips into Gale. Gale leaned on his elbows, John delivering harder and rougher blows to him. His knees started knocking into the cabinets on the island. No one makes him feel good the way John does.
Gale let out a whimper feeling John’s large hand wrap around the back of his neck and his other go to his cock.
“I love you,” Gale uttered through breathy moans feeling the warmth of John’s hand pumping up and down on his cock, Gale rocking his hips back into John’s.
Whipping his head up, Gale heard the shaking of his moms precious fine china cabinet. The slams of John's hips into Gales growing louder and becoming more on beat. “Be Careful what are we gonna tell Mary if we break her china.” Gale's little chuckle filled the room for a moment.
“What if I don’t wanna be careful?”
“Do you…Oh yes right there oh my god!” Gale threw his head back slamming his hips back into John as he hit just the perfect spot and began jerking him off harder, “John oh my god. I love you.”
“You’re so fucking gorgeous, baby…I love you too.” John moaned, grabbing a handful of Gales locks. Slamming his hips into him, “You make me feel so good.”
“Don’t pull out,” Gale began begging as he could feel they were both about to climax. John began pumping him harder and harder, rubbing his thumb over the slit.
“John…” Gale aggressively pushed his hips into John as he came all over John's hand and his own stomach. Moving his hips back and forth to get out the aftershocks, making John's knot in his stomach began to unwind Gale clenched around him. Letting out a loud groan and falling a bit forward into Gale pushing in a few last times before pulling out and leaning forward onto Buck.
“God you’re so fucking good,” John kissed Gales shoulder wrapping his arm around his waist.
“I’m ready for round two, do you wanna go up to my room?” Gale turned to look at him panting through his words.
“Hell yeah,” John threw Gale over his shoulder carrying him up to his room.
“You better not fart John, I’ll cock block you for the night!”
“Don’t count on it!”
Sure his parents forgot about his birthday but as far as Gale was concerned he's having a pretty good time.

Happy Birthday, Nat
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
summary: VERY late i know but it’s natasha birthday and maria has the perfect plan
December 3rd, 1984. The day Natasha Romanoff was born. Natasha doesn't like celebrating her birthday, mainly because the Red Room didn't allow for such things, so she doesn't feel like it's important. However, Clint along with Maria, Maria R, Carol, and Fury, she's learning that things such as birthdays, downtime, and other things are just as important as getting missions done. So today, they all made sure the world wasn't ending so Natasha could spend time with them as a family.
Maria woke up bright and early to make Nat breakfast which consisted of homemade blueberry muffins, a recipe her grandma taught her when she was younger. She had made them for Natasha last year and Nat fell in love with them. Maria smiled as he plated the final muffin before picking up a candle and lighting it before putting it on the top muffin. She picked up the plate and carefully made her way back to their bedroom. Maria gently opened the door before smiling at the sight of Natasha curled up in bed, burrowed under the covers because of the slight chill while Liho was asleep on the cat pillow near Nat's head. Maria gently sat the plate down on the bedside table before making his way over to Natasha's side of the bed.
He gently ran his fingers through her hair. "Sweetheart, wake up." Maria whispered softly. Natasha stirred but didn't wake up. "Baby, get up." she said a little louder. Sleepy green eyes locked onto hers, "Mia, what time is it?" Natasha muttered, bringing a hand up to cover her yawn. "It's just after 11." Maria said, glancing at the clock on the table. "Ugh, it's our day off Ria, why'd you wake me up so early." Natasha pouted. Maria just rolled over to grab the muffins. "Happy birthday, my love." He said, presenting the plate to his girlfriend. Natasha's eyes lit up seeing the plate. "Are these the homemade blueberry muffins you won't tell me the recipe to?" Natasha asked, eyes full of glee. "Yes, these are those muffins. Now, make a wish." Nat closed her eyes and made a wish before blowing out the candle. "Thank you, baby. I adore you." That was the closest Maria would get to an 'I love you' and he was fine with that. Natasha was still learning that love wasn't for children and that she was deserving of love and that she could give love. 
Natasha took a muffin off the plate and took a bite. "Mhm. This is so good, Mia." Natasha moaned. Maria's cooking was out of this world and Natasha loved it so much. Maria cooked for them and always tried new recipes, while Nat tried the food and failed at cooking with Maria. But it was nice, having someone to come home to, someone who takes care of her like this. She's never had that before. Maria moved to sit against the headboard. "Eat up. We're going out and we have to get ready soon." Maria told her. "Where are we going?" Nat questioned curiously. "We're going ice skating." she replied. Natasha squealed. Squealed. Maria was expecting a good reaction but he didn't expect her to squeal with excitement. "Seriously?!" See, Natasha had gone on a long rant a few weeks ago about how she really wanted to go ice skating because she wanted to try some of the tricks and with her ballet training it shouldn't be that hard, but could never find the time. Maria being the amazing girlfriend that she is, rented out an entire rink just for today. Natasha didn't know about that yet. "Yes, seriously. Now come on, we have to get dressed. Go shower and I'll feed Liho." Maria ushered her out of bed before picking up Liho and leaving the room. 
Natasha smiled as she watched her girlfriend and cat – but not her cat even though it's been 3 years – leave. She's never been this happy, especially not on her birthday of all days. She really loved him, even if she hadn't said it. She wants to say it, she'd wanted to say it when Maria literally walked through fire to save her after a mission went wrong, but she's scared. Good things don't last for her, they never do. She's still the Black Widow, people want her dead and will go to any and all lengths to get to her. If they find out about Maria, they could hurt her. Or worse, kill her. Of course Natasha knows Maria can take care of himself just fine, however it was just a fear she couldn't shake. Natasha shook her head. It was her birthday and her girlfriend was taking her ice skating, so that's what she should be focused on. 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After both women showered and got ready, it was time for them to leave. Maria didn't tell Nat any other details about their ice skating trip, just that it wasn't that far. Natasha was practically bouncing with excitement, Maria can't remember seeing her this excited; but she thought it was cute. When they pulled up to the rink, Natasha practically jumped out of the car. "Come on Mia! I'm ready to skate." Maria laughed and quickly got out of the car. She took Natasha's hand to lead her to the rink. Maria flipped on the lights and to Natasha's surprise Fury, Carol, Maria Rambeau, and Clint all yelled "SURPRISE!" Natasha jumped back in surprise before a big smile graced her face. 
"What are you guys doing here?!" she asked excitedly. "I wasn't going to miss the birthday of my favorite child." Fury told her, ignoring the offended gasps of both Marias, Clint, and Carol. "Don't act offended, y'all are too smart to not have known." He replied like the smartass he was. Natasha jumped on Maria, who just barely managed to not fall over. "Thank you!" she muttered over and over. "There's no need to thank me. Now, we have this place to ourselves for two hours, so let's have some fun." Maria said.
The group went to put on the skates they had gotten from the skate rental when they arrived earlier, Clint bringing over Maria's. Nat went to head over there when Maria stopped her. "You're not gonna be needing those." Maria stated matter of factly. Natasha made a confused face "Why not?" Maria didn't reply, just signaled to Fury who picked up a bag and handed it to Natasha. She took the box out of the bag and opened it to find a pair of black ice skates with red laces. There was even an 'N' in the corner of the skate. Nat was speechless. No one had ever gone to these lengths to make her happy, she didn't know how to feel. "They're beautiful." she whispered out as she stared at the in awe. "Now, put them on and we'll see if you'll actually be as good as this as you say." Natasha and Maria put their skates on and headed toward the ice. Nick flat out refused to ice skate, something about not wanting to embarrass himself and keep his dignity.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Natasha’s a natural on the ice, but no one’s really surprised. Maria can’t help but watch in awe as Natasha glides across the ice so effortlessly, so freely. She looks beautiful and Maria thinks he just fell in love with her all over again. Natasha does tricks that have taken even the best of ice skaters years to learn and perfect so easily. Carol being the competitive person that she was, tried and failed to outdo Nat but that just landed her with a face full of ice and her girlfriend scolding her in the corner while she pouted. 
“Masha, come here!” Natasha's voice captured Maria’s attention. He skated over to the center where Natasha was waiting. Maria went to speak but was interrupted by Natasha pulling Maria her down in a tight hug which Maria returned just as tight. “What’s wrong?” She asked after she heard Nat sniffle in her ear. Nat pulled back from the hug so she could look Maria in the eyes. “I never thought I would have this. I never thought I would be free, let alone celebrating my birthday with people that actually care about me. I don’t deserve this, Mia. Not after all the bad I’ve done.” She was a killer, she didn’t deserve to be happy after all that she’d done. 
“Hey, none of that. You deserve good things and you deserve to be happy. You didn’t have a choice then, but you have one now. One that you’re using to be better, to do better. Everyone here loves you regardless of what you’ve done because you cared enough to be more than who they made you.” Maria spoke softly, but firmly. Natasha often thought she was undeserving of many things, but Maria would always be there to remind her that she was. "I love you.” Nat’s voice was shaky when she said the words, fear lacing her heart. She loves Maria so much, “Can you repeat that? I don’t think I hear you over how loud my heart is beating.” Maria’s voice cracked a little. “Maria Hill, I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I lo-” Maria cut her off with a kiss. “I love you so much more.” She said after they came up for air.
“Hill! Keep your hands where I can see them! That’s my favorite daughter you’re kissing on!” Fury yelled from where he was sitting. Maria just put her middle finger up toward him while bringing Natasha in for another kiss. Fury and the others just laughed. Natasha was happy and in love and that’s all that mattered.

A vent bc I'm resenting my brothers, feel bad and need to get this out.
Posting this here bc reddit's being a bitch.
I (F16) have 4 siblings, 3 of them being younger brothers and an older sister. It crosses my mind on a daily what life would be like without the youngest two (6 and 3). I don't hold much ill will towards the older younger brother, R (12), just the occasional squabble n stuff as siblings do. But the youngest two I've grown a resentment towards. I was fine as a middle child for the most part and content with my older sister and R, but once the other two came into the picture I've felt burnt out constantly. The 6 year old was born in 2017 when I was in 5th grade by my dad and step mom, who I didn't and still don't live with. This stressed me out a little and I was failing some of my classes, but I brought it up only for it to decline again a little when my great grandma died in 2018. When my brother was born (I'll call him B.), I was happy for my dad and stepmom and had no ill will towards him. I didn't see him often though, as in, the 6 years he was alive, I've seen him for less than a full year's worth of visits. My mom didn't like my stepmom so we couldn't visit much since my dad was working a lot out of state, so we only visited when he was home. After a while, we found out B. was autistic. Now don't get me wrong, I hold no resentment towards autistic people whatsoever, but between me not forming a proper relationship with him from the jump, me not being good with kids, and him being autistic and not developing as we'd expected clashed with me. I've gone sleepless nights at their house when I was supposed to be relaxing and getting away from home life, just because he comes in and turns on the lights constantly, is loud, and constantly takes off his diaper. This agitates me because I'm a light sleeper and it takes me forever to go back to sleep once I'm awake. On car rides I try to stay away from him but on days where it's inevitable, he touches my hair and face and just me in general constantly, and his hands are always covered in chip crumbs as he makes a mess in the car, and I only like touch from a select few people. The amount of times I've had to give up certain things because of his sensory issues drive me up a wall. I can't choose where I want to go for my birthday because it has to be friendly to B's sensory issues, and if I wasn't constantly giving up my childhood for my siblings I'd be fine. But on my birthday where I finally get to have attention on me, I can't even choose where I get to go, and there's already not a lot to do around here where we live.

Hellowish
Tumblr media
It's been awhile i guess, so what's up everybody?
I'm hoping you have a good and relaxing day ahead, i'm here again guess what because there’s nothing to do in office today that i can write in this blog HAHAHAHA 
Its my NANAY’S Birthday today, the 3rd day of April (Grandma) but she’s buried in Manila and here in the province but we see to it that there’s someone who can visit her in her grave, my brother’s maybe who lives in manila. HAYYYYYY
Tumblr media
I'm going to rant again, HAHAHA WHAT”S NEW BITCH, this page where i can release all my unsaid thoughts and feelings because if i let them know it'll be a burden to them and i can't do that. So be patient with HA HAHAHAHAH.
Tumblr media
So where can I start? There’s so many to rant that i don't know where to start
My office work will end soon so i think i can't finish this blog for today, im continuing this maybe tomorrow? HAHAHAHA ohhh shot i forgot that i have meeting tomorrow with accountant so maybe friday i guess AHAHAH
There’s nothing here, it's worthless paper today.
Tumblr media
Hello again, it's the 4th day of April and there isn't much work today as in literally no work at all, so I'm bored and to divert my sleepy eyes, I just write anything to say even if it's nonsense. 
So well, I was in Manila yesterday to accompany my friend who has a problem with her work. Apparently she’s involved in a money problem with the company, I can't elaborate it further, it's too personal. 
I've also told Sami about it he said, say to your friend that everything gonna be okay and i rely naman that, hoping she gonna be okay too her mental health is too low last year she was diagnosed Anxiety and Depression, when i heard her crying last night i just hugged her that's the only thing I can do to her as her support system, i can't say if she’s wrong or right because I'm not in position to judge everyone’s involvement.
Hoping to end that struggling position for her and today she messaged me something that bothers me. I'm waiting to hear what she's gonna say.
I'M SO SO SORRY I OVERUSED “GONNA” WHEN I KNOW THERE’S NO SUCH FORMAL WORD LIKE THAT
SORRY MY FALSE HAHAHAHA
I've been playing non stop Ariana Grande’s Eternal Sunshine Album HAHAHAH, i felt to dedicate this to Sami but everytime im doing that he’s been active on messaging me HAHAHAHA 
So what’s that? 
There was also a time when i posted what song I'm playing that day (i forgot the title but it was sentimental HAHAH it was random playing) then he replied 
“Why are you sad? We’re okay. Sorry I was busy” 
I replied “I know we’re okay, what are you talking about?”
He replied “your story”
I replied “HAHAHA sorry about that it was random”
Defensive much boy HAHAHAHAH it was last year i guess 
OH MY GHAAAAAADDDDDDDD
Tumblr media
What she said was so big AND I CAN'T TAKE IT howwwwww????
I cant even write it im so shock
Hello again it's my third day doing nothing HAHAHA its 5th day of april today, i'm so lucky to have my day paid while doing nothing because why? I've done it last week so i don't have anything to do now. 
So today is friday i'm writing again a non sense paper, like what i said yesterday i knew something that so hard to believe and it involves my work friends, if you red my other writing, I’ve mention these friends there but not totally dropping their names
So this is it, this friend of mine is ranting about her feelings for the last few days, she’s so problematic then within that day she have known that our other friend having flirty jokes with her husband, although it was a joke, we all know that joke are half meant so decreased her hurt feelings i've always reply “please rest for awhile you needed that and everythings gonna be fine” familiar? HAHAHAH it was from someone 
Ooohhhh shoooot ive also write that about the talked happened on the 3rd day of april in manila HAHAHHAH my i'm so old to notice that 
I don't know how hurt feelings are because I've never had a husband so prone to cheat? Is that cheating already? 
For me personally, cheating is a choice. Although there's bait or some malicious actions from others it was your choice to do wrongdoings together with some bait.
So if Sami chose that i don't know I've always ask him naman about it, if he has someone there na that he can be 24/7 let me know so i can exit myself it was painful and hurt but i need to do that, but he said there's no one there so i believe pa but you know sometimes it like i said most of the time I'm thinking about it
That he's super busy? Even sending an updated picture or message he can't do? Oh well we’re not physically seeing each other pa just a face on the video its super seldom pa that’s why I'm okay with it he’s not demanding thou to see me for something, sometimes he just asks for a selfie.
So enough of me i'll go back to the original topic of the day which is my friend SAPAW KA GIRL HAHAHA 
WHERE AM I AGAIN? AH ON CHEATING
That’s why I'm asking diba if that's cheating also, texting some flirty message to someone you're not in a relationship with, even if you're too close to that person. 
I'm even close to that person, she’s ahead of us you know but, i don't jump into conclusion with just statement, why? Because she’s married too with 2boys that’s why I'm asking WHY? 
Tumblr media
I'm the actually the one confused, super and i don't understand them anymore, listening is the best i could offer but my mind is so blowing also HAHAHAHA
So this is what nonsense writing feels like? I'm just narrating or ranting? It depends on who reads it anyway but at least it release my thoughts
Anyway i need to stop na this i'm going to publish this eventually
XOXO AHAHAHAHAH
What's XOXO again?
Tumblr media
Remember to be beautiful always and always be kind

Grief sucks.
The fact that it’s been an entire year since my grandma passed away is. So weird. I miss her. I miss her so much.
I’m incredibly happy and glad she was still here when I finally moved out. I love how proud n giddy she was bc she’d apparently always been telling my mom, her daughter, that me and my sister would one day be out of the house, living together. She was so satisfied with being right.
I miss her voice on the phone. I miss how she’d call on big holidays. Or how happy she was we called her.
I miss her little voice coming through her ancient Nokia brick phone. How every birthday, around 1pm, I would get a call from her. And she’d sing happy birthday for me.
I miss her hugs. I miss her warmth. I miss the smell of her apartment. I miss how short she was. I miss hearing the click clack of her jewelry when she’d insist on standing up to hug us.
I miss how often she’d repeat stories. I miss how much she loved talking abt her great grandchildren.
I wish she’d been able to teach me crochet. I hope she’s proud of the scarf i knitted with her knitting needles.
I have some art that she had in her bedroom hanging next to my desk. There’s another print she had thats hanging in the living room. My sister made waffles with her waffle maker like last week. Her spice rack is standing in the kitchen. The spice pots we have r too big to fit, so there’s only the one pot of dill we took from her kitchen and the in use garlic there. I use her cooking spatulas all the time. I wear her little apron when I cook. The plant we adopted from her room in the elderly home is thriving like crazy. I’m wearing the little slipper socks she crocheted so many of.
She’s everywhere. And she’s gone. And it still fucking hurts.

this is so fun!! telling u ab where i'd go if money wasn't an issue <3
first, my dad's 50th birthday is next year in june. i'm likely going to be abroad then, but at some point during the year i'd take him and all my siblings to ireland!! my dad visited me there last year and absolutely loved it and i know he'd love to go back and i also must show my siblings how wonderful it is. we'd also take the train up to NI for a few days to see derry, belfast, and giant's causeway!!
second, the summer after my best friend and i graduate uni (2025!!) i'd take us both to south korea for at least a month, maybe 6 weeks. we've wanted to take a similar trip for years now, our plan is roughly 10 days but if money isn't a problem might as well go for longer right? korea is such an amazing country and i really want to soak in everything...we'd have to explore seoul, busan, jeju island, the dmz, anywhere we can really.
lastly, my mom turns 50 in 2026, and so i'd take her, all my siblings, and my grandma to italy and southern france. it's a trip we've all wanted to do for a really long time and my mom really loves europe <3 (she's backpacked there 3 times?? like that's so cool)
there's obviously so many more places i want to go but these r the big trips i want to take!!
This ask game
Oh my GODDD THOSE TRIPS SOUND SO FUN I have always wanted to go to Ireland!!! I love nature and lakes + rainy weather and Ireland has all of that! And there’s so much culture!!
I have family in Korea!! My uncle runs a restaurant there & I have been wanting to visit him for awhile too! It’s a sushi place I believe!
Italy is so fucking special!! I reccomend Ferrara as a place it’s really small but it’s so charming and has the best ice cream in the whole world!! And I’ve had ice cream in 28 countries!!

there's a TLDR at the end of this post. also sorry if y'all just saw a mass text on your dash for a bit. i put a read more but it glitched. classic tunglr.
so on thursday this week (on 08/15) my family hosted a celebration of life for my grandpa--it would have been his 80th birthday. a lot of people showed up, family included, and it was a good time. we did what grandpa would have wanted and done best: drink, eat, and socialize. (my bio grandma said i was acting just like grandpa LMAO.)
there is some sad stuff, though. one of my great uncles (lets call him d), the baby of the family, is still very torn up over grandpa's death. (we are all, uncle h.) it's so sad bc while the family can be sentimental, i have never seen uncle r so...like that. i mean, we choked up together when we attended a mass for grandpa back on my birthday, but....yeah.
things get a little worse, though. i have two great aunts, and they're both older than grandpa and uncle r. the eldest didn't show up (which i'm kinda salty about ngl), but the younger one (aunt y)....so she and her husband (uncle e) live in florida. they flew up to come to the celebration of life. they're staying with uncle h and his wife and were going to carpool with them. however, aunt y and uncle e had to stay at the house because aunt y had a very bad fainting spell that morning. apparently she's having some health issues (she's 82 years old; it happens) and faints are one of them. however, it gets even worse you guys! she's also having signs of alzheimer's (specifically the memory issue) and she's taking experimental meds for that.
so, grandpa had alzheimer's / dementia / parkinson's and died with it (and i'm sure that contributed to the malnourishment, among other stuff). his older sister is showing signs of it from what great uncle e was telling my uncle. btw, apparently their dad had it too, and he died when he was 85 years old. aunt y is currently 82 years old...so great! not really feeling it you guys.
but christ, it gets worst.
apparently, some of the older relatives have asked my uncle and his wife if we know where some of their mom's things (my great grandma) and other family stuff is at. now, we knew where some things were at from the last time we went to That Place, but who fucking knows. i hope that bitch still has it but she needs to give the family their stuff back. i doubt she will---i really hope she didn't trash it, but if she didn't give the things my dad asked for (which was a bench and small metal toolbox he made for his dad when he went to school)....well, i hope she will give the older relatives that stuff. THAT SHIT IS NOT HERS AND IT BETTER FUCKING NOT GO TO HER DUMBASS FAMILY ONCE SHE CROAKS.
put this bitch in a fucking saw trap PLEASE.
tldr
i took bereavement leave this past week and spent time with family
i found out that one of my great aunts has a poor bill of health and is showing signs of alzheimer's, which is something her brother, their father, and their sister-in-law had. um. that's not good at all haha!
found out the bitch still has family heirlooms that she needs to return to grandpa's siblings. she probably won't do it because she's a fucking cunt.
i'm still torn up over grandpa and will probably never heal even after that cunt dies. like, of course you never get over a death but my family has been robbed of a proper, peaceful bereavement because grandpa married a narcissist.

HELLO, I RLLY HOPE U LIKE THIS! i’m assuming you meant a romantic match up! if not oops lol thank u for sending this! it rlly helped me w motivation! also sorry if this is a bit long :) SIDE NOTE ITS RLLY COOL THAT UR SO TALL
just because idk if its a touchy subject for u!)
(also i feel like i keep matching ppl w more mainstream characters but like, ITS RHE VIEB I GET OK???) 😭
(rom) i match you with…..
SUGAWARA
ok ok u def met when u were working
he came in w daici and kiyoko to talk abt some important stuff n when they walked in he was like “woah 😨”
thinks ur so attractive
then he orders and leaves!! yay how eventful
BUT THEN
he always suggests to go to that boba place
are the drinks good? yes. are they as good as seeing you? no.
probably starts with very very minimal conversations, maybe MAYBE small talk or an occasional joke from him
he becomes a regular, and he most likely orders the same thing every time
one day hinata comes in w him daichi and kiyoko
AND HINATAS FREAKING ABOUT BECAUSE HE SAW U THE OTHER DAY
turns out u tutor his little sister although he probably needs it more
and kiyoko tells hinata abt the crush she noticed suga had
AND WHEN I TELL U HINATA SCREAMED
later that night he was talking to (brokuto) bokuto abt it and then a lightbulb goes off
hinata is suddenly busy the day he needs to pick his sister up from tutoring and oh no hes always busy now and suga is the only one free?? oh well i guess he has to pick her up and see you
he thinks he so smart
and he is in this scenario at least
but did his set up work?? yes
when he shows up
ur like?? and he is like???
but u end up talking, n found out u have a lot in common
he finally leaves once and only once natsu is tugging and pulling at sugas sleeve with the biggest pout on her face
hinata?? busy?? again?? cant pick up sister! oh well suga has to get her now!!
this time, he left w ur number
very friends to lovers story then plays out
bookstore hangouts very often
mini little old lady clubs where u recommend stuff you found and he recommends stuff you stuff he found
then he sends you very long thought out reviews on whatever you give him
DEFINITELY CONFESSES BY ACCIDENT
its either 1. if u guys r arguing he will just accidentally be like “because i like you” or something dumb, 2. says it in the evning when u guys r sitting outside and he thinks you look so pretty under the glow of the setting sun, he just mutters it under his breath (or so he thought)
and ur just like “what?” but yk its mutual
he def wont get into an actual relationship with you until he has properly taken you out on a date that he deems successful
a lot of picnics, maybe hiking if u want to, late night fast food runs w rlly blurry pictures
he loves how trustworthy you are
also i def think he loves ur hair
the volume n the waves is just perfection to him
suga might always seem very happy and peppy but he isnt always
he has mastered the people pleasing act of happiness
so he rlly enjoys ur strong emotional sense to be able to understand him
also likes that you’re empathetic so being vulnerable is comfortable with you
because of those he feels like he can talk to u about anything he feels like he needs to hide from others (the trustworthiness helps w this too)
(he is an infj so the balance of that relationship is rlly cool btw)
finds it so cool that you play volleyball
he’ll inv u to play w his team sometime for fun but will make sure ur not overwhelmed (because we all know that team meeting sugas gf would be..just praying for u)
he always sends u good morning and good night texts
he always brings u sweets n chocolate on ur period
brings you flowers all the time
he also will check if u need anything when hes at the grocery store
he will never forget an anniversary
ALSO LOVES THAT YOU WORK W CHILDREN, HIS FUTURE TEACHER HEART IS SO HAPPY
overall a rlly understanding, safe, and compassionate relationship
.
.
.
.
THANK U SO MUCH FOR REQ AGAIN!! I hope u enjoyed it! I have a lot of fun writing these :) as always, if u saw any spelling errors no u didn’t! dont forget to eat and drink water!!
