P1Harmony as your Boyfriend
Hello friends! It's been a minute but I wanted to write this new scenario for Keeho's birthday, this group has become so special to me and I got the honor of seeing them live for the first time back in May! So here we go!
Warnings: mild language mild pg-13 content
Scenario: boyfriend, romance, fluff, slight angst if you squint, comedy
🖤Keeho🖤
There's 2 sides to this boy
Keeho
And Stephen
Keeho is the fun, goofy, silly romantic boy
Loves fun dates with you
He will drop everything for you if it's possible
Laughs with you at stupid memes
Listens to music with you
The Sass!!!
But the other side
Stephen Yoon is a totally different person
He's passionate
Definitely the more bad boy side
Intense make out sessions
Usually his jealous side
You love both sides really
Fights with Keeho aren't common but they can happen
and Keeho looks scary when he's pissed
But they never last
Like you walk out and he gets mad.
Then it's like 3 in the morning and he's at your door step
Hooded up and as soon as you look at him
He's walking Inside, holding your face in his hands
Laying his head on yours
Repeatedly apologizing and telling you how much he loves you
"I think I'm gonna go crazy if I have to sleep alone"
🥴
🖤Theo🖤
Taeyang is absolutely adorable
Like sweet as pie
So you've already got the best boyfriend ever
He's always cracking jokes with you
And making you laugh
He's the funniest member
He seems kind of shy at first
Which is how he was
But as you two started going out more
He started feeling more comfortable to be himself around you
Theo is definitely the kind of boyfriend to just wrap his arms around you and give you a quick kiss
It may be a couple of kisses that trails all over your face just to make you laugh
He will use this maneuver when you're having a bad day
Theo has a bit of a sassy side to him as well
So he's not afraid to roast you like a marshmallow at the camp fire!
Fights can one of both ways for Theo
You two are bickering and everything slowly blows over
Or you two are arguing and have to take some time away from each other
Either way it usually ends with one of you saying sorry
And then he won't let you go for a while after
"I know I have practice soon but i just want to hold you a little bit longer
🖤Jiung🖤
My sweetest boy ever!!!!
Jiung is the ultimate boyfriend
I'm not being biased
Like he's the sweetest
He's so full of energy
So he'll have endless energy for you
He's definitely an arcade date guy
And you love watching him turn into a little kid when he's there
Jiung is always working on his computer, so he makes room for you too
He'll show you all the new songs he's working on for his sound cloud
And that voice
Melts you
Jiung will let every single person on this earth know how much he loves you
He's never afraid to show you off
You love it
Fights with Jiung are also rare
He can't stand to be away from you
But he won't let you leave
He'll close the door as soon as you open it and just wrap his arms around your shoulders
He'll hold you like it's the last time
"Can we please just forget about this stupid fight now?"
🖤Intak🖤
There's only 1 way to describe Hwang Intak
A freaking flirt!
This boy knows he's good looking
So do you
But that's how he gets away with so much
He's always calling you Beautiful, pretty, and angel
"How is this beautiful person my girlfriend??"
You always blush and try and shake him off
And boy does he just love the shit out of you
Like you're his everything
You love watching him dance
Sometimes he'll have random dance sessions with you in the living room or kitchen
Like he loves just having you close
You definitely cried during his scene in the debut movie
If you know you know
Now a fight with Intak honestly isn't much
Again like little bickers
He loves you too much to give up on you guys
He just can't let you go
And eventually he'll just try to shut down the fight
"Jagiya... why are we even fighting?"
🖤Soul🖤
Haku
Shota....
Buckle up honey
You're in for one hell of a ride
Keeho said
"He's just a strange kid"
Boy was he right 😐
Pretty sure Soul crash landed from another planet
He's a total weirdo
But! ☝️
He's your weirdo
From his ant tank, down to his weird obsession with hair dryers
You love every strange inch of this boy
He's definitely not afraid to be himself around you
In fact you're the one person he feels the most comfortable around
Soul may be particularly odd
But he's also like the sweetest thing alive
I have a feeling he'll fall asleep only of he has you in his arms
Like he can't let you go
If you move from those arms he starts making all these weird noises until you come back
So with that being said, can you actually fight with this kid?
Answer
Probably not
He just loves you too much .
🖤Jongseob🖤
Okay Jongseob may be the maknae
But he's not baby
Not the way he spits straight fire
But like most Maknaes
Especially around his age
I always look at them as a first love troupe
So Jongseob and you have only been dating for a couple months
He asks his hyungs for everything
Like everything
The best kind of flowers
When's the best time to hold her hand
How to stop being nervous for a date
Things like that
Man does this boy love you though
Like he's so happy when you're with him
He loves subtle dates
Like you two just in the dorm having a movie night
His hyungs watching from across the room like proud dads
If you two get in any kind of fight
He's gonna panic
Run to his hyungs begging for help
They'll tell him exactly what to do
He will do everything they told him to do
Show up and tell you he was sorry
Maybe give you some flowers
Or a stuffie
Or both
Something to show how sorry he is and how he wants to make things work with you
And of course you can't say no to that face
No one can!
Hope you guys enjoyed this one! I'm working on some other scenarios and some time of day ones as well! P1Ece out my sunshines!

“Yes I told a wittle wie, but at weast I stawted a convuhsayshun uwu”
Back in the day when “conversations” started more from oral correspondence, conversations were more ambiguous. And if you’re the sort of person that believes in manipulating the truth and the ritual of communication for your own idea of, “positive social change,” the ends justified the means when it came to he-said she-said, ambiguities, and telling little lies in order to provoke feeling and reaction to get them on your side. Manipulating peoples trust in that what you said with fervor and zeal was the truth and that you weren’t just speaking out of your ass out of ignorance. Because the consequences of if what you said were true were correct, it was outrageous and wrong.
And if it ever was shown that you spoke out of turn, back in the day, you could always use the excuse, “well I guess I did overreact but I didn’t know the truth either, I was duped, same as you.” And you could deflect ever deliberately using outrage and lies to forwards an agenda.
So why do I bring up this phenomenon and how the internet removing ambiguity as to its source has laid bare the machinations of socialist types when they lie like this?
Oh, it just has to do with the original VA for Bayonetta deciding to lie about how much she was paid per recording session (she said it was totally for that one game.) And this interaction was TEXTBOOK, “I’ll tell a little lie and let the outraged start rumor milling for me.” All leading up to “the conversation” of unionizing voice acting and increasing VA pay to ludicrous amounts not based on any previous conversations but new ones riding waves of public ignorance and anger. All of this based on a shitty false outrage that absolutely lied about how dire the situation was to make it seem like a virtual crime VAs aren’t paid six figures for one job.
And always, always, always, when it gets laid bare that someone wasn’t just jumping the gun, mistaken and repeating ignorance, but outright lying to provoke, this coy, “Yes I lied but at least we started a conversation!” ploy tries to excuse the whole fucking facade as justified in the face of injustice. Ignoring the fact the injustice does not exist and was always an exaggeration. Trying to capitalize and base the conversation on the outrage that never happened.
Usually it has more time to culturally penetrate as a bit of just-so ignorance that no one engaging in the conversation has any time or opportunity to research for themselves, so they just take it as a given based on association and trust to the people making snide “jokey-jokes” repeating and perpetuating these things. The way night time talkshows would perpetuate the “woman burns her crotch with hot McDonalds coffee and stupid people sue businesses for their own stupidity” meme. Where people latch onto it and repeat it as real, with a hint of self-aware ironic disgust when they do it.
But this is the internet age. The lie about only being paid $4,000 total didn’t have time to become a mean spirited set of jokes perpetuating that false story as truth, before the truth came out and managed to be disseminated with a minimum of effort to correct the record.
Pre-internet age, do you know how long it would’ve taken for the truth to come out before the lies and propaganda spread around the world? A whole fuckload of time. And partially spurned on by the sort of people that are ideologically geared to take every opportunity that seems to badmouth businesses or things that aren’t locked up and unionized for the sake of arguing everything requires a union boss to function. From voice action, to Steam. They argue you shouldn’t even be allowed to have a business without a union dictating everything you do and how much that business has to devote of its earnings to the union.
“Oopsy sowwy I wied and ouw convuhsayshun was on false pwetenses. :3″
You love to see it. It barely had time to ruminate and metastasize before being debunked.

10 Anti LO Asks
1. a billionaire's nightmare (especially one who gets rich off the labor of slavery) would be to actually work, so no wonder hades and persephone are so distraught over actually having to do their jobs for once instead of goofing off, abusing the poor, and shopping all day.
2. I think LO was always supposed to be a Rom/Drama, but the issue is more that RS can't depict drama well, hence why the SA was followed by a Dad Joke™️, was dropped, and "fixed" after one therapy session literal years afterwards, or how Persephone isn't allowed darkness to instead have it as Eris' doing, or how RS complains she wants to write "Persephone playing Candy Crush all day" when she easily could have from the start. It was never supposed to be a RomCom, but she can't do RomDrama either.
3. Now LO fans are claiming Eris isn't supposed to be a villain and Kronos was always planned to come back? I swear they just live in another reality because IDK what comic they're reading where any of this was not randomly pulled out of nowhere. You can't spent a season and a half doing nothing to build up a villain returning (who was never pinned as one anyway beyond Hades' personal history), suddenly make him come back, then drop it again to randomly put in Leto and Eris. That's bad writing.
4. "LO is supposed to be dark!" a dark story doesn't constantly use outdated memes, make fart jokes during "serious" moments, and spend more time doing silly expressions and trying to be "hip with the times" than actually being serious when it should be. LO is as deep and dark as Riverdale, but even Riverdale is aware it's bad.
5. I mean it's been a long time coming of social/pop media making it toxic for young girls and women to navigate through and not feel "not enough", especially if they're not a 18-21 year old, attractive, rich, and white. LO is not the sole factor, but it does suck it's another piece of popular media setting up dangerous standards for its young readers base that they can never be able to live up to. I know people love to go "fiction doesn't effect reality" but it does, even if it doesn't try to.
6. I think that also makes the AOW/Eris/Whatever else so dumb is like ... are we really suppoed to believe all of this happened when Persephone was 18-19, so literally within the last two years of her life? How exactly does that work? Plus has Rachel ever met a 13 year old? Persephone would logically have 15 AOWs at this point since it's tied to her emotions, not having it only happen one time when she was 19 a few months ago in universe. You don't just have one temper outburst and that's it.
7. Idk it annoys me that in the trial arc only Hades wore a crown (at least on the first day) and an "interesting" outfit meanwhile Zeus and Poseidon looked kinda meh
I get that Poseidon may not like to wear his crown or formal clothes but Zeus literally has no excuse for not wearing a crown like they're all kings but Zeus is the king of the gods and it's an important event but anyway it's just a nitpick
8. It appears that RS is practicing with poses and anatomy. I'm genuinely glad to see it. Hopefully it'll show in the upcoming chapters. For now it seems like she is spending her time wisely.
9. What I don't get is you have LO fans excusing the SA, age gap, slavery, violence, etc as "It's myth! she has to keep it in!" when 1) a lot of the bad parts in LO were NOT in the original myths to begin with, but 2) she purpisely took a story about a mother standing up for her daughter against a cruel man and instead made it a "romance" where the cruel man is the perfect partner and the mom is evil for not wanting the together, so the idea she "had" to keep or add these elements is a just a lie.
10. I hate LO fans claiming it's a "coming of age" story because LO is ultimately about Persephone marrying Hades, being his Queen, and that's about it. Where in that says "coming of age"? Yes, in ancient times a (mortal) girl would become a "woman" upon marriage, but this is supposed to be a modern setting for a modern romance, what "coming of age" are they having exactly if they don't have ancient values? And why should her "maturing into an adult" be tied to Persephone's relationship to a man?

Promise (fuckboy!Satoru Gojo x reader) (college AU)
warnings: Gojo being a fuckboy who knows his effect on women all too well, MC's declining mental health implied
genre: angst? (sfw)
word count: 1.9k
“Please, just hear me out!” Gojo begged, face contorting into a desperate expression you knew all too well by now.
The scene is just like the numerous ones you’ve experienced in the past few months, all consequential to Satoru Gojo asking you out earlier that year. You should have known better. After all, you’ve been a witness of all of his intimate endeavours throughout high school. It was naive to assume that you would be spared of his promiscuous behaviour and that, somehow, this would be different.
“I promise you it won’t happen again!”
The exclamation just fell on deaf ears. That very promise, which he never fails to make in moments like these, has lost all meaning long ago. The sincerity fading more and more each time it was broken. These conversations, which once used to reduce you to tears, have now lost all meaning they once might have possessed.
All you know is the emptiness you feel resulting from your heart being shattered over and over again, your soul reduced to nothingness. You can no longer cry. You can no longer get mad. You are no longer surprised. Just a shell of the person you once were.
No longer are you even aware of your surroundings, lost in your own mind as Gojo spouted endless dubious apologies and false promises, all of which you’ve heard dozens of times before. How many times have you turned a blind eye so far? How many second chances have you given? How much longer will this go on? You do not know.
How did it come to this?
You and Satoru are first years in an honours programme at Jujutsu college, with you majoring in Biology and him in Physical engineering. Although you had known him since your first year of high school, you two have only gotten close in the summer leading up to your first year at college. During that summer, he’s managed to get closer to you than anyone ever has before. It really isn’t that difficult to imagine considering his flamboyant personality and stunning appearance.
Right now, you were at a cafe, waiting for Mr Perfect to show up for your weekly Math and Chem study session. You chuckle looking at a meme he just texted you. The lovely bastard is fashionably late per usual, but you are somehow never annoyed at that nasty habit of his. Five minutes of texting later, you feel a tap on your shoulder alerting you of Satoru’s arrival. Soon after the tap, you can feel his presence on the left side of your head.
“I think you can kiss heaven goodbye, as it must be a sin to look that good,” he proudly stated right next to you. You gazed to the side with widened eyes and your mouth slightly agape. It was just quick enough for you to catch a glimpse of those gorgeous sky blue eyes of his, mischievously peeking up at you from the pitch-black sunglasses the man always adorned. It truly was a sight to behold. To your great misfortune, however, it was gone as soon as it came, with him rising up to ruffle your hair a bit with his enormous hand before going to sit at the other end of your small table.
You focused on regaining your usual composure, as you’ve grown accustomed to his flirty persona during the summer while observing him picking up girls wherever you went. His sense of humour is just atrocious, but it eventually grew on you also. Despite his provocative behaviour and dirty humour implying he’s still very much immature for anything of the sort, you’ve started harbouring hope that one day, just maybe, he’ll give it a shot for you. Yes, as naive as it was, you couldn’t help but fall for the marvellous man sitting across from you.
You sighed at your inner turmoil and slightly irritably ran a hand through your hair. Satoru, of course, interpreted your reaction as you being annoyed at his borderline foul compliment and the thought elicited a deep, alluring chuckle from him. Slightly shaken from the beautiful sound, you plastered on a smile and looked at him, asking to begin your study session already since he was late again.
Two hours of studying later, you two were walking back to the student dorms on the other end of the campus site making small talk on your way.
“Argh! I hate this unit so much. Why do we have to memorise all the functional groups when it would be so much easier to just look them up in the data booklet during exams? It is so unnecessary!” you cried out, pouting while clenching your fists in exasperation. When Satoru didn’t respond, you relaxed your posture and turned to address him, only to blank out upon seeing the way he was staring at you.
He had a tender look on his face the likes of which you’ve never seen before. His lips formed into a small but genuine smile with his eyes relaxed as he just looked at you. You felt as though he was staring right into your soul. At this point, you both stopped walking instinctively and held your eyes locked wishing for the tender moment to last forever. Satoru was the first to speak up.
He called your name, not breaking eye contact. You just barely took notice of his voice, getting lost in his gorgeous blue eyes during your little moment just now. God, does your name sound good coming from his mouth. You barely had the common sense at this point to utter out a small “Hm?” and no notion whatsoever of what was yet to come.
“Would you like to go out with me sometime?”
You were baffled. The person you’ve been crushing on for months now just asked you out. You. Little old insignificant you. Too startled to form a coherent response, you replied with the only concern you had. “Me?”
After all, you were a nobody. You’ve seen the women who talk to him on a daily basis. The perfect height, athletic, well-adorned in all sorts of jewellery and fancy clothes, makeup perfectly done and never a single strand of hair out of place - those were the type of women surrounding Satoru Gojo. Compared to them, you were the lowest of the low. Your face contorted into one of confusion before your eyes started tearing up. This must be a joke...
That was only in the few seconds leading up to Satoru bursting out in a tear-inducing laugh. This did well to break you out of your small trance, sobering up a little before becoming even more confused. He asked you out, and now he’s laughing about it? Is this man in his right senses? You don’t recall him having any alcoholic beverages at the cafe so it can’t be. He stopped laughing soon after and used the tip of his right-hand sleeve to wipe away his tears.
“Of course it’s you, silly! It’s 10pm. We’re the only ones here right now!” he exclaimed, giggling a bit throughout forming his sentence still. This only served to confuse you even more. It must be a joke, then.
“You’re joking,” you voiced your thoughts. At this, his formerly happy expression fell and formed into one of concern.
“How could I be?” he asked. Seeming genuinely concerned as to why you’d think that. His eyebrows furrowed and his lips formed an unusual frown. “How could I ever joke about something like that? You have no clue what you mean to me, Y/N.” You could tell from his expression that he was being sincere, making you falter. Your face seemed to be enough of a response for him to continue speaking.
“You are honestly the best person I have ever met. You are strong and independent despite everything life has thrown at you. You are smarter than anyone I know. You have an amazing sense of humour and are a great listener. You’ve always been there for me when I needed you most. Along with being a good person, you also make me a better person myself. You fulfil me. Without you, I feel my very existence would be meaningless.” All the while saying this, he hasn’t broken eye contact once. “So I will ask you once again, Y/N, will you go out with me?
Following that evening, the two of you were in a happy relationship.
So how did it turn into this?
You first noticed something was wrong when you saw him dancing really close with a girl at a college party. He had his left hand low on her waist and his other hand entangled in her hair, bringing her closer so he could lean into her neck. It was just an embrace, right? Perhaps she was his friend who needed comfort of some sort? These are the excuses you made for yourself at the time to console the slight pang of concern and betrayal felt upon witnessing that scene. You never confronted him about that. At the time, you told yourself that was because there was no issue to address but reflecting on that moment now, you know it was the fear of your suspicion being proven right that discouraged you from bringing it up.
This happened about an additional five or six times before you started acting a bit more adverse to Satoru’s usual affection. You would no longer initiate kisses and would become stiff in his embrace. It was mortifying to know he was behaving so naturally around you when you know he’s off with other women when he thinks you aren’t looking. Despite this, the relationship was maintained as your love for him didn’t falter.
After a while, his endeavours would cause arguments. He would argue the women were coming onto him, that he was drunk or anything of the sort, just to get out of the situation, and you would argue he was fully aware of his promiscuous behaviour. These arguments would always end in forgiveness and the movie would rewind yet again. That is what led you where you are now. Your forgiving nature backfired and your feelings for the man were constantly extorted.
Sometimes, enough is enough.
It is time to put a stop to this neverending loop your relationship has turned into.
“Stop,” Satoru was still pleading for forgiveness when you interrupted him mid-sentence. Your simple exclamation seemingly pausing time, as it was the first word you have uttered in this conversation so far. Gojo looked at you anxiously, hope evident in his eyes that you would forgive him. Oh, how you loved those eyes of his, full of deceit.
“I’ve had enough. I’ve given you far too many chances and have been disappointed every time without fail. It is time for both of us to admit to ourselves that this won’t work. Not the way it is now.”
Despite your calm exterior, your previously empty inside now felt a sharp, anxious pain. No one said it was going to be easy. While the fear of change is strong, you know this is the right thing to do. Fear can bring no actual harm, but this relationship has and will continue to do so if you don’t put a stop to it. It is time.
“Goodbye, Satoru Gojo.”

Fragments III, 1-100
300 drabbles about Steven Universe/Future, 100 words each! These are the first 100 prompts and writer’s choices that have been fulfilled.
Asterisks are placed next to my personal favorites that I’ve written.
Baggage* — Steven meets his new therapist!
Eternity —How about a Bellow interaction you've always wanted to see in canon but didn't get to?
Foe —Jasper is simultaneously satisfied and yet left deeply empty inside by her self-isolation on Earth, and doesn't understand how to even begin to process this dichotomy. (So she doesn’t.)
Letter — Young Greg's POV when he wrote those letters to his parents Steven found on Mr. Universe episode.
Sword —Connie interacting with someone she doesn't usually talk to by herself (ex Jasper, Bismuth, Lapis, etc.).
Reconciliation — Idk about you but I wanna see more Mega Pearl. The others have not met Mega Pearl.
Marks —How about... Spinel, and the tiny, everyday baby steps towards healing?
Tangled — Peridot finds out/is told about PD/RQ? (And is confirmed in her guess that Pearl is fancy...?)
Challenge* — How is Steven’s TubeTube channel doing?
Bruises — Priyanka tends to Connie's wounds after training sessions with Pearl. [Writer’s Choice]
Rest* — Yellow Diamond gets to relax. (She's the one who most expresses regret and real understanding. Let her take a nap! She deserves it!)
Barbecue* — Post-movie, during cleanup, Steven and Lars talk and plan the BBQ we got a glimpse at during the final song.
Ghost — Yellowtail and Greg talk about fatherhood and how it can be ruined (mentioning Marty and Greg's father subtly).
UNO* — Date between Pearls (platonic or otherwise).
Height — The pebbles!!! They're so small???? Where are they? *Sobs, points at the Heaven and Earth Beetles.*
Embrace — Steven gets a well-deserved cuddle pile from family and friends.
Constructs — Bismuth and Peridot have a lot more in common than they think.
Horns — Amethyst makes an unexpected new friend at Little Homeschool. (Whichever other character you feel would fit best!)
Garden — Pre-show scene. While having a funny chat, Greg mentions something that reminds Rose about her abandoning Spinel, which makes her regret more of her choices.
Advice — Garnet can tell when Stevonnie has a lot on their mind. [Writer’s Choice.]
Hum — Yellow and her relationship with music.
Love* — Pearl considering her romantic feelings towards someone and thinking about how she's finally moving on from Rose. (Doesn't mean she'll ever forget her.)
Kid — A glimpse into “Sadie Killer.” Maybe when they played their first show, while Steven was still in the band. Celebrating afterward or a discussion on why Steven didn't stay IN the band?
Troubleshooting* — Integration of gem communication networks and Earth Internet and phone lines and the resulting inevitable disaster.
Fairytale — Connie gets a tour of Little Homeworld.
Hope — Jasper finally starting to let her guard down and realize her self worth.
Song* — As for prompts... Steg? Like, him in general, just being himself. It's a bummer we only got to see him in the movie.
Mistakes* — Steven talking to someone (not a therapist, just another character) about his trauma?
Forgiveness — The Topaz fusion reconnects with the Crystal Gems at Little Homeschool and apologizes for her role in the kidnapping all those years ago.
Visions — Sapphire and Ruby reflect on the events of "Together Forever." [Writer’s Choice]
Reunited — Maybe a scene where Yellow comes home from a long escapade and is reunited with a worried Spinel?
Beginnings — After CYM, Lapis and Peridot discuss where to live since the barn is destroyed.
Pet* — White Diamond happily announces one day that she has decided to take in a small creature (of your choosing) as a pet.
Together — What were Doc, Army, Navy, and Leggy doing during Future?
Desert — Steven meeting Lion from Lion's perspective. I dunno, I think it could be neat.
Freedom — For a post-CYM/SU:F prompt, what do you think about the exact moment it hit either Blue or Yellow Pearl that they were completely free to follow their whims?
Apologies — Greg apologizes to Steven due to the incident in “Mr. Universe” and both have the talk they should've had in that episode.
Change — Blue and Yellow Zircon's relationship has improved even if they are now rivals in the new democratic Homeworld. This last tiny bit is related to the “Homeworld Bound” episode.
Hug — Bellow cuddling. Yellow has no idea what to do, but Blue is loving it.
Valentine* — Steven gives Peridot a Valentine's Day gift. [Writer’s Choice]
Spite — Aquamarine and Eyeball are distraught at knowing they won't be rewarded for their actions because their worst enemy, Steven Universe, has been labeled a hero and royalty by the Diamonds.
Reevaluation — How about more Peedee and Steven friendship? Like, Peedee noticing Steven’s change in demeanor the farther along the show we get?
Camp — Connie kicking ass at space camp.
Family — The night after the events of the movie, Steven gets some quality family time.
Homestretch — Peridot, Lapis, and Bismuth spend time together while preparing Little Homeworld.
Enough — We know what Jenny, Sour Cream, and Buck are gonna do for their futures, but what's Kiki been up to? Is she gonna take over the pizzeria?
Spillage — Vidalia and Amethyst catch up after Steven's monster episode.
Reformation — White Diamond has learned how to be so extremely empathetic to the point that she literally becomes another person, but has she really begun to understand others?
Comment* — Sardonyx makes some Internet videos.
Unicorn — While traveling through California, Steven encounters two fishermen arguing about unicorns. [SU/GF crossover.] [Writer’s Choice]
Worry — Andy and Greg stay in touch.
Homerun* — I hopal for Opal—perhaps she will attempt some baseball.
Skydancer — Post-CYM, Pearl getting to “truly” take Steven out for a joy ride through the cosmos in a properly operational ship of her design.
Mercy* — The shattering-is-wrong discussion between Rose and Bismuth that led to Bis being bubbled.
Happy — Smoky Quartz hasn't made a self deprecating joke in a while—is it Steven's therapy?
Electric* — Yellow’s gloves—I feel like they’re covering something up, maybe.
Cake — Fusion Cuisine 2: Electric Boogaloo.

OwO when u have time,, can I have a haven box for BNHA?? But just when you’re free and not working on prior works!! >:( I’m watching u bish
You can use my name in the result if you want to lol I already know it anyway!!
She/her, Taurus, INTJ, slytherin (pretty freakin’ queer but I usually lean towards boys/enbies more)
Personality: the first thing people notice about me is that I am less of a feeler and more of a thinker. I do have an IQ of 125, but my emotional intelligence is quite low, so I have trouble sympathizing with others. But I learned through experience, so I don’t SEEM emotionless. I can (and will) help my friends through tough times if they need me. I’m pragmatic, so I always go for the facts instead of the feelings during decision making or tough situations. I hold a lot of perfectionist traits that make it really hard for me to be satisfied with my results if they aren’t higher than the norm. I also have a slight issue with saying no, so sometimes I’ll offer my help or enrol myself in long-term projects while knowing I legit do not have time for more stuff on my schedule. Being a bit smarter than average, I sometimes feel like I’m obligated to help others so that they can do good too (however, I do like helping people with their hw to a certain extent). I’m working on those issues though!! I’m also an introvert, and I can get rlly tired if I have to be interacting for more than four hours straight with people, especially if their persona isn’t rlly compatible with mine.
However, when I’m surrounded by friends (or generally people who aren’t my superiors), I’m very energetic, loud, silly and I have a sharp tongue. I’m also insanely competitive, like someone please stop me?? My sense of humour goes from absolute nonsense to almost mean spirited sarcasm, but it all depends on who I’m talking to. I’m a MAJOR memer, I have a bunch of files filled with them, and I couldn’t bear be with people who didn’t understand my meme references. When I start liking something, I can get easily obsessed. I’m stubborn, therefore very passionate about the things I care about. I also have a slight case of the Endorphin Junkie, meaning that I really, really like the high you get after sports so I do crossfit training like five to six times a week. I’m unapologetically myself, and I will not ever change who I am to fit within the norm. I’m sometimes told that (that I’m odd, I mean), but I usually thank the people who tell me. I have a really, really big love for music and I have a tendency to break into song sometimes when people say a line from a song I know. I also cry sometimes when music gets really good ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ whoops
Appearance: I’m around 5’6”, with hazel eyes and brown hair that goes around to my shoulders. It gets curly out of nowhere. I can either wake up with straight hair or wake up with a freakin perm, it’s funny. My body isn’t exactly the lean type, I’m somewhere around the buff area of the scale instead, but as long as I seem visibly strong, I’m satisfied. When I’m not going anywhere significant, I usually just wear sport shirts and sweats, but I have a penchant for Dark Academia so I like /looking/ like I’m smart sometimes. And I have glasses bc apparently my eyes are assholes and they work too hard and it hurts my brain all the time
Likes: music (DavidBowieDavidBowieDavidBow-); I have a really wide range of music that goes from early 2000’s pop to 1700’s requiems(my faves are Bowie, Queen and Pink Floyd). I enjoy studying theoretical fields, reading, and I like talking about Absurd Theories About Reality That Make Little To No Sense. I like sports, and I love joking around with friends in the most exaggerated ways. I also love the colour green and I’m more of a cat person
Dislikes: dogs (they’re cute but keep them away pls), ignorant people, irresponsible people, spiders, things I’m not good at from the beginning, having to deal with strangers being upset, crying (me. I don’t like crying; I mean me, I’m fine if my friends cry)
Other fun facts!!
- my goals for the future are all over the place; I want to work for Disney, I want to get a musical composition degree, I want a biomedical engineering bachelors degree, I want an astrophysics doctorate, I want to study languages, I want to be a foreign English teacher... I can’t ever decide.
- I have a long history with getting crushes on guys who turned out to be gay. It happens so often and I HATE IT, it makes me feel terrible.
- I!!love!!70’s!!music!!so!!much!! I was raised on that stuff, my dad wouldn’t let us listen to anything else
- Lol my favourite playlist name is Drugs Playlist But I Don’t Even Do Drugs it’s just a bunch of Pink Floyd and David Bowie songs
- My favourite movies are 80’s or 90’s comedy classics!! Like Wayne’s World, or Airplane!, or Night at the Roxbury. I keep quoting Wayne’s World and no one understands :(

Truth or dare gone wrong
The class 1-A were all gathered in their common room, even Bakugou was present. The class was having a truth or dare session, it seemed interesting. “Sero, my man! Truth or dare?” Denki asked as he looked at Sero. “Truth! I choose truth,” Sero said. “Who have you been talking on the phone to this past weeks? The one I keep hearing is my pumpkin?” Denki asked. Sero’s face then turned a light shade of pink. “O-Oh- ummm,” He started as he looked away. “Does our Cellophane have a girlfriend?” Mina teased as she poked Sero. “Y-Yeah,” He stuttered. “OI THAT’S NOT FAIR?!? WHY CAN YOU HAVE A GIRL BUT I CAN’T,” Denki sulked as he placed his head on the table. “If you weren’t such a perv then maybe you can get one!” Hakagure responded.
“Don’t be shy. Tell us more,” Mina said. Sero’s blush darkened and he looked away. “We are playing truth or dare! It’s my turn to ask,” Sero then said. “Actually, I am quite curious as well. We can always continue later,” Momo said as she smiled. Everyone agreed and they then looked at the nervous male. “C’mon now guys, this is unfair,” Sero said as he looked at everyone. “But you have a girl and we want tea,” Mina then said as she sat in front of him. “I- um, you guys really want to know about her, huh?” Sero said as he chuckled. Everyone nodded and stared at Sero intently. “Just tell us already, Soy sauce,” Bakugou growled as he glared at Sero. “Don’t listen to him, bro. He is just jealous,” Kirishima said. “WHAT-“ Bakugou was about to counter but was silenced. “Fine! Fine! You got me in a corner,” Sero then said as he chuckled. “She should be coming here,” He added as he looked at the door. “Three, two, one,” He then said as he pointed to the door.
“Hello, is Sero Hanta here?”A feminine voice said. “ARE YOU A PSYCHIC?” Denki said as he looked surprised. “I’m right here pumpkin!” Sero then said as he smirked. His nervousness melted away as he saw the 5’6ft girl. It was his girlfriend, Eve, and he was overjoyed. “Hey there babe!” She then said as she smiled. “DANG YOU GOT A FINE LADY!” Denki then yelled as he checked her out. “Keep your eyes above for I’ll gorge them out,” Eve then said as she glared at Denki. Soon enough, Mineta tried to touch her as well but his efforts were at vain. Sero used his tape as to stop Mineta from getting closer. And Eve kicked him away, far away from her. “Get your filthy hands away from her,” Sero said as he stood up. He then wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead. “Woah, that was so manly!” Kirishima said as he smiled.
“GIRLS! GET HER-“ Mina said as she tackled the girl. They didn’t fall down but Mina was laughing and hugging her. “Girl! How long have you been together?” Mina asked as she pulled away. Eve was a bit uncomfortable but she merely had a stoic face. “A few weeks,” She responded bluntly. And soon enough, the truth or dare session was forgotten. It was replace with the class 1-A trying to pry out the tea from the couple. Did they succeed? No, not really. Though the class seemed to love Eve and her antics. The class even tried to make them forget about the date they have planned. But either way, Sero and Eve got manage to get away to have their small movie date at his room.

36 and 96! ♥
36. “please don’t be mad at me” & 96. “i think i’m in trouble” (this probably isn’t what you were expecting but i hope you’ll enjoy either way, love!)
”Please don’t be mad at me,” is the first thing Lucas says as he flops down onto the seat opposite from Eliott, ”but I haven’t read a single page of what I was supposed to.”
Eliott looks up from where he’s been sketching an outline of a building while waiting for Lucas to show up. ”Are you serious?”
It’s Monday. Like every Monday, the library is quiet and mostly empty, even though the exam season is about to start. Eliott has chosen a table in the back by the window this time, where he can look out onto the campus, knowing that Lucas would be at least 10 minutes late, as he always is.
Sure enough, Lucas comes in 15 minutes late this time. Eliott barely notices, busy with the drawing, but still.
”Yeah, I know, I suck,” Lucas says, and Eliott wants to protest, don’t say that, but Lucas is already waving a hand, dismissive, and throwing his books from the bag onto the table and saying, ”So. Teach me everything I need to know.”
”Lucas, I told you,” Eliott says, closing his sketchbook and propping his chin on his hand, ”that literature doesn’t work like that. You know that you have to actually read the books first, right?”
He aims for exasperated as he says it, but misses a great deal and it somehow comes out fond. Just a little.
”Yes, I’m aware, technically,” Lucas responds, rolling his eyes, pushing his hair away from his forehead, ”but I also know that you are my tutor for a reason. The reason is — you’ve read the books so I don’t have to.”
Eliott has to hold back a smile.
Between his classes and his job at the art supply store and therapy sessions and working on multiple art projects at once, the tutoring sessions with Lucas are something Eliott, strangely, enjoys. When Idriss had asked him, sly, two months ago, ”Hey, how much do you remember from your literature course from high school?” and Eliott responded, ”I don’t know, why?”, he never expected all of this to come out of it.
Lucas is in his first year, and his major is biochemistry, or microbiology, or something equally insanely difficult, anyway. He has a horrendous sense of time and no interest in literature at all, but, for a reason Eliott doesn’t understand, has to pass a literature class if he wants to continue his college education at all.
Cue Eliott.
”It’s so stupid,” Lucas had told him the very first time they met, frustrated and rolling his eyes and running a hand through his already unruly hair. ”I didn’t decide to study biology only for literature classes to haunt me all the way here.”
It made Eliott laugh, just a little too loud for the library setting. ”Yeah, that sounds unfortunate.”
Lucas lifted his eyes to him, then, wide and blue and pretty, ”You’re laughing,” he’d said, ”but think how you would feel if someone suddenly told you you had to learn maths again, or physics, or whatever you hated the most in high school.”
Oh, hell no. ”Um. If you put it like that.”
”See?” was Lucas’s response. Eliott remembers him leaning back in his chair and biting his lip. He remembers looking at the motion just a second longer than he should have. ”I think I’m in trouble. I’ll have to sit through 2 hours of this hell every week. If I’m still alive by the end of this semester, I’ll give myself a medal.”
And Eliott had smiled, turning his eyes away from Lucas’s face, said, ”I’ll try to make this as painless as possible for you, okay?”
So that’s what he’s been doing.
”I’ve read a summary of this somewhere on the internet, I think,” Lucas tells him now, holding up Antigone and grimacing like it’s causing him in physical pain just to touch it. It’s a very battered copy, falling apart a little, pages curled, ripped in places. Eliott likes those kinds of books best; the ones with history to them. ”You think it’ll do?”
”How much do you remember from it?”
Lucas winces. ”Uhm… I think someone died? At the end?”
And Eliott doesn’t really have much choice but to sigh, pluck the book from Lucas’s willing hands and launch into retelling the story because Lucas’s literature exam is in three weeks and they don’t have much time left. Lucas is supposed to take notes, but he just looks at Eliott instead, resting his chin in his palm. Eliott can feel his gaze on his own face, warm and pleasant like sunlight.
Their knees knock under the table. Lucas shifts his weight on the chair, pressing his leg firmer against Eliott’s, and Eliott doesn’t move away an inch.
His voice doesn’t waver as he speaks, but it’s a near thing.
*
See, the thing is — Eliott’s not sure what is this game that they’re playing.
He’s missed the moment of transition. Blinked and somehow overlooked the point when Lucas turned from just a friend of a friend into someone else; when the easy banter started, and the feeling of ease, the feeling of familiarity. Lucas has, when Eliott wasn’t paying enough attention, turned from a smart, a little bit grumpy biology kid into all that and beautiful, all that and dazzling, all that and I'll-take-your-breath-away.
He keeps sending Eliott weird literature memes that Eliott doesn’t even want to know where he’d found, and grins at Eliott’s silly jokes and asks if Eliott’s feeling alright when he notices him looking a little pale around the edges.
They keep toeing the line between friendship and flirting, both aware of it happening but not willing to say it out loud. Eliott feels like Lucas liking him back would be too much of wishful thinking and not enough of reality. There is something in his chest, every time he thinks about the possibility of them, and it keeps curling like smoke trying to escape. But Lucas never asked for anything of that, and Eliott might be reading too much into things like he has in the past already, so he keeps this smokey feeling down, hidden, away where it belongs.
And Lucas keeps brushing their shoulders together whenever they leave the library at the same time, and sometimes buys Eliott coffee, saying it’s an apology for always being late, and keeps looking at him instead of making notes, and even if Eliott does notice, sometimes, how he flushes a pretty pink if Eliott says something even vaguely flirty, that’s the extent of it.
Their scene is this, Eliott tells himself, and this only: a library, a table tucked into a corner by the window. Their voices, hushed but carrying anyway. A pile of books. Sheets of paper strewn between the two of them.
”Can I see some of your drawings?” Lucas asks him, once, bored of the book they’re talking about but curious about Eliott like he always seems to be, something in his eyes sparkling.
Eliott thinks about many, many the pages of his sketchbook filled with the outlines of Lucas’s profile, with how many times Eliott has tried and failed to capture the way Lucas’s hair falls over his forehead, how the shadows under his eyes look when he’s tired, and how it’s all there, in charcoal and ink, a testimony.
In the end, Eliott only shows him a couple of silly things he’s drawn in the back of his art history notebook, little doodles on the margins of the pages — an outline of a building, or some clouds, or a bird he saw out the window.
”I don’t have my sketchbook with me,” he says in a lieu of an apology and sends Lucas a small smile. ”Next time, okay?”
*
And then, on a Monday again, as he’s about to head into the library, he bumps into someone by the entrance.
It’s Lucas.
”Oh my God,” he says instead of hello when Lucas blinks up at him. He’s automatically reached out to steady him by the shoulders when the impact of them running into one another made Lucas take two steps back. Now, Eliott lets go, although reluctantly. ”Am I seeing things or are you actually here on time, for once?”
Lucas sends him a look. ”That’s very funny,” he says, but then turns a little and points to the door of the library, brushing Eliott’s comment off. ”I was actually looking for you. The library’s closed today.”
Eliott frowns. ”What?”
”Yeah, I know,” Lucas says, shrugging. ”I’ve heard that there’s a broken pipe or something. They’re flooded.”
”Seriously?” Eliott stalks closer to the door. There is a sheet of paper taped to it. It says, due to technical difficulties, closed until further notice.
Eliott only realises that Lucas has come up to stand beside him when he bumps their shoulders together playfully, saying ”Told you, see?” and then, ”Can you believe that the one time I’m not late, the library’s closed?”
Eliott only says, ”So, no Wuthering Heights today, I guess.”
It's what they've moved onto now, the last book on Lucas's "must-read-although-i-hate-it" list. Eliott doesn’t care much about Wuthering Heights, really, but it is a little ridiculous, how disappointed he feels about suddenly not being about to spend the next hour with Lucas, explaining the plot or talking about motifs or whatever they would be doing today. Tutoring is a good excuse for Eliott to look at Lucas from across the table as he reads, point at a sentence in a book and brush their hands together. It’s gonna feel weird, to have the Monday afternoon to himself; Lucas hasn’t skipped or called off a tutoring session even once this whole semester.
Next to him, Lucas rocks on his feet a little. ”I mean…we could just go somewhere else.”
Eliott raises an eyebrow. ”Like where?”
”Um,” Lucas starts, suddenly looking a little fidgety. ”My place, if that’s okay? It's not far. My roommates might be home, but they shouldn’t be a problem, I think.”
”Don’t you hate literature?” Eliott says in reply, aiming for teasing, but it comes out laced with uncertainty instead. ”I thought you’d take whatever chance at not having to study it that you’d get.”
Eliott half-expects him to say something about the impending exam in response, about how there’s not much time left anyway. But that’s not what he gets.
”I do hate literature,” Lucas tells him, and then Eliott watches, a little incredulously, as a blush creeps onto his face, makes his features glow like the dawn. ”But not spending time with you.”
Eliott’s heart does something complicated, then. He licks his lips. The words take two tries before they leave his mouth.
”Okay,” he says at last, and it makes Lucas look up at him. ”Let’s go, then.”
When Lucas smiles, Eliott smiles back.
*
The apartment, when they come in, is quiet.
They camp out in the living room, spread the books and notebooks and papers on the floor and sit side by side, going over the plot of the book again. Eliott makes Lucas repeat all the recurring themes of it back to him, without looking at the lazily scribbled notes Lucas tried and mostly gave up on making once, and then when that’s done, he listens as Lucas lists all the characters one by one and explains the relationships between them all.
Lucas keeps complaining that it’s all overly complicated and very depressing. Eliott keeps insisting that the atmosphere of the book is what makes it special.
As it often happens with Lucas, Eliott quickly loses track of time. It gets blurry. One moment, they’re arguing over the ending of the book — Lucas, shockingly, does not like it — and the next they’re lying next to each other on their backs, staring up at the ceiling. It’s very quiet; apart from the sound of cars outside, there’s nothing. Eliott feels a little drowsy in the best way possible, feeling Lucas’s frame inches away from his, aware of it like he’s aware of his own heartbeat, continuous but under the surface of his mind.
Then, Lucas says, ”I’m gonna miss this.”
He sounds like Eliott feels. Eliott imagines his words like bubbles, dissolving into the air once they’re out. He feels himself chuckle. ”I knew you secretly liked Wuthering Heights.”
”Not the book,” Lucas scoffs, sounding almost offended for a second, but then Eliott turns his head and when his gaze land on Lucas, it’s impossible to look away. His eyes are very blue. Eliott’s mind goes back to every description of beauty he remembers ever reading, and he understands, anew, what they all meant to convey.
”Then what?”
A breath. Then, Lucas says, ”This. You,” with a lilt to his voice Eliott doesn’t recognise, and within the next second, something in his face shifts before Eliott can properly react. He watches as Lucas pushes a hand through his hair, licks at his lips. Something hot surges through his veins. ”I mean—you’re a good tutor. And we had fun, right? It was— it’s nice. That’s all.”
Eliott blinks, then turns a bit so he’s lying on his side, carefully, like the motion could disperse the moment they're caught in. Lucas keeps looking at the ceiling. ”Are you saying I made literature fun?”
It’s supposed to sound like Eliott’s joking but comes out fond. A little astounded. It’s difficult to keep the feelings out of his voice now, after all those times of making Lucas laugh and after all those hours spent talking, heads bent together, knees knocking under the table, more on purpose than not.
”For the most part,” Lucas admits. ”I still don’t like it, but you— made it better.”
Something in Eliott’s chest ties itself in knots.
They have one more tutoring session left. They’ll go over anything that Lucas still feels unsure about, and then Lucas will write his literature exam and probably text Eliott how it went and that will be that. End of the semester. Eliott will have no reason to wait for him in the library anymore, or lie on the floor next to him and marvel at the arch of his bottom lip, or at his eyelashes. They’ll go back to the frames of their separate lifestyles, easy and bland.
He doesn’t fucking want that.
”Hey,” he says, propping himself up on his elbow, leaning over Lucas a little. The knot in his chest tightens, but he just thinks, screw that. Screw that. ”I’m gonna do something, okay?”
And when Lucas just blinks at him in response, confused, he leans down and kisses him.
It’s—supposed to be short. It’s supposed to be touch-and-go, a barely-there press of lips, shy and fleeting and light enough to give Lucas room to back out.
Instead, when Eliott kisses him, it’s shivers down his spine and feelings spilling in his chest. Lucas freezes for a beat, and Eliott curses in the back of his head, but then there's a hand settling shyly on his waist and an answering press of lips, then again, and it all slides, impossibly, into place. Everything narrows down to this — Lucas sighing against his mouth, then fully kissing him back, tilting his head like he’s been ready, or like he’s been waiting. His hands feel heavy and warm when he cups Eliott’s face. When Eliott moves away, just for a breath, Lucas chases him up, drags him back down.
Eliott licks into his mouth, feeling warm all over with relief, and with something else.
It’s supposed to be short. Instead, they kiss for a long time.
”God,” Lucas gasps against his mouth when they part, eventually, minutes or hours or days later. Eliott doesn't know. ”God, Eliott.”
”I know,” he says, giddy and probably flushed. His arm hurts a little with the strain of holding him up, so he untangles his fingers from where they’re buried in Lucas’s hair and sits up, tugging Lucas with him. Lucas is blushing all the way down his neck, eyes big and lips red, and Eliott looks and looks. ”I'm—I’m gonna miss this, too. But we can turn the tutoring sessions into something else, if you’d like.”
Lucas’s gaze flits over Eliott’s face, then seems to stumble once their eyes meet. ”Into something else,” he repeats, "like a date?"
”Yes,” Eliott says. His grin is wide. ”Like a date.”
Lucas kisses him again, then, muttering a quiet, ”Okay,” against his lips, and when Eliott presses their foreheads together, he says, ”I take back everything I said. Literature is my favourite subject now," and then, before Eliott can react to that, adds, "Jesus, do you have any idea how difficult it was to focus on fucking Wuthering Heights with you sitting across from me?"
And Eliott laughs, charmed, and a little bit enamoured, and happy.

for the cute asks can you do all of them? i saw you do it before but if you cant pick out your favorite ones
you’re in luck, I somehow have nothing to do! ever! (I had some other asks but then I got this one and figured I’d do them all in one).
1: when you have cereal, do you have more milk than cereal or more cereal than milk?
I try to have more cereal than milk but I always end up with more milk than cereal, which is fine ‘cause I like milk.

I’ve always loved you
Mark x reader (fluff)
You and Mark had always been best friends but what happenes when you start to become distant. Does that mean you both finally confess your feelings for one another?
———————————————————————
Being friends with NCT was interesting to say the least. They were the bestest friends you could ever ask for, being close to all of them and sharing many memories together. You couldn’t imagine your life without them.
That’s why you never told anyone about your crush on Mark.
At first you thought it was just some stupid feelings that would eventually go. But, oh, you were so wrong. As time went on, your crush on Mark got bigger, struggling to act normal around him and blushing every time you made eye contact.
That was until you decided that it was best for you to force yourself to get over him as you valued your friendship too much.
You were closest with Mark out of all the guys, being that you were the same age and shared a lot of interests. Both having a very similar, strange, sense of humour. You were often left gasping for air with tears running down your face as you laughed at random memes that you found online together. He would be the first person you went to when you were down and needed advice. He even knew all your secrets.
That’s why, when you started to get closer to Jungwoo, Mark became jealous and moody. He started noticing that you were becoming distant with him, having inside jokes with the others more and finding you in the dorms hanging out with Jungwoo more often.
It broke Mark’s heart a little seeing you be just as close to the other members as you were with him. Unbeknownst to anyone, he had been harbouring a massive crush on you for a while, never having the confidence to confess to you how he felt.
He realised he had feelings for you when you were out shopping together a few months back. You had been looking at some dresses, hoping to find one to wear for your aunties upcoming wedding, when a sales assistant approached you to help. As she picked you out a dress Mark wrapped his arm around your waist, a common thing between the two of you as you were so close. The assistant commented that you were a very cute couple, awkwardness instantly filling the air as you both told her you were only friends. Mark instantly felt sadness wash over him as he took his arm away from you, his mind going into a frenzy at the reminder that you weren’t his.
After that day you both started to become distant and awkward around each other. Even simple things like cuddling while watching a film made you both feel tense, even though it had never been a problem before.
That’s why when Mark saw you in his room, laughing over some random vine compilations on YouTube with Jungwoo, he reached braking point. He huffed loudly forcing your attention onto him. Your laughter instantly dying as Mark’s glare pierced through you.
“What’s wrong Mark?” You questioned him cautiously.
“I thought you had class today, that’s why you had to cancel our weekly coffee session.” Mark replied, an angry tone to his voice.
“The lecturer cancelled last minute and I thought you were at the studio so I came to see Jungwoo.” You explained, guilt spreading through you as you saw the sad glint in Mark’s eyes.
“And you didn’t think to call me? You know I would much rather hang out with you.” Mark stated with hurt evident in his tone.
“I just thought you were busy - I’m really sorry.” You say but are cut off before you can continue. “Whatever, it’s fine. Have fun with your boyfriend.” Mark mumbles and turns away, leaving the room.
Jungwoo places a comforting hand on your shoulder, “You should go after him, it’s ok (Y/N). Tell him how you feel.”
“H- how did you know?” You question as your head shoots up to look at him.
“I can tell by the look in your eyes whenever your staring at him, now go make up already.” Jungwoo encourages with a soft smile.
“Thanks, I’m sorry for getting you involved.” You smile back at him as you give him a quick hug before getting up and going to find Mark.
~~~~
After looking in every place you thought Mark could be you finally find him sitting in the corner of the lounge situated behind the bookshelf, next to the window.
“I’m so sorry Mark.” You say quietly, reaching out to place your hand on his shoulder comfortingly.
“I just miss you (Y/N), I miss us.” Mark responds with a croaky voice. “You’ve become so distant lately, hanging out with the others more and getting really close with Jungwoo.” He continues, his eyes lifting from the floor to meet yours.
You felt your heart break in that moment as you stared at Mark, seeing the hurt in his eyes. You gently moved to sit down next to him, placing your hand on top of his and looking down at them as he intertwined your fingers with his.
You let out a heavy sigh, “the reason I’ve been distant is, and I don’t know how to say this-”
“You were scared of how you felt.” Mark cuts you off, finishing your sentence before you both look at each other and laugh.
“I feel the same.” He continues, you feel your heart race at his words, not knowing what to say.
“You do? Since when?” You wonder, a lump in your throat at the nervousness bubbling up inside you.
“Since we went shopping for your aunts wedding and we were mistaken for a couple. I felt really sad when I wasn’t able to say you were my girlfriend.” He answers truthfully.
“Well, why don’t you ask me now?” You blurt out without thinking what you are saying. As you realise you start to try and talk again but get tongue tied and blush with embarrassment.
“(Y/N), will you make me the happest person in the world right now and be my girlfriend.” Mark chuckles at his cheesieness.
“I would love to.” You respond with the biggest smile on your face.
~~~~
A few days later you and Mark are sitting in your local cafe having a quick lunch date before Mark has to head back to work and you have to attend a lecture.
“What do you mean you don’t like pineapple on pizza!” You laugh at Mark as he expresses his shock a little too loudly, the people near you glancing in your direction.
“You knew that, don’t act so surprised.” You giggle.
“I can’t believe my girlfriend doesn’t agree with me.” He exclaims, a little too dramatically. “It’s sweet.” He continues, putting emphasis on the word sweet.
You continue laughing at his childish but very endearing jokes.
“Shhh Mark! People are staring.” You try to calm him down.
“I don’t care, we should get going anyway.” Mark playfully retorts as he laces your hands together and presses a quick peck to your lips.
“Can I tell you something” Mark whispers a few inches from your face, you nod. “Even when we were just friends, I always loved you.” He adds. “And I’ve always loved you.” You whisper back.
Both of you grin widely as you exit the cafe, happy that you have each other.
———————————————————————
A/N - after writing this, I now have the feels. It’s very fluffy 😂
Hope you enjoyed!
Requests are open! 😁

Black & Blue - Jungkook BTS
Word Count: 1.8k
AU!: soulmate, college
Summary: The universe doesn’t seem to trust humans with the knowledge of who their soulmate is until they’ve matured. Even though you’re 95% sure Jung Hoseok is your soulmate estranged best friend Jeon Jungkook comes back into your life causing trouble.
back - forward
The universe is very mysterious. Just in general. It's especially mysterious when it gives you time to figure out who your soulmate is before it begins to feel sorry for you and blesses you with your Soul Mark. Soul Marks vary honestly. Tattoos that just appear when you've ”matured” or words in ink appearing that you didn't write. Sometimes, if you sing a song your soulmate will get it stuck in their head or one couple will have a finger that glows when they're together. The list goes on.
Right now, you're in the stage of kind of waiting for the universe to throw you a bone but, you're pretty sure that you found your soulmate. Hoseok is an absolute angel and man do you love him. He's a dance major at your college and you're a culinary major. It’s kinda perfect when you think about it. Dance tires him out and when he comes home you’re practicing what you learned in class or when he needed a break from the same routine he’d teach one to you. In all honesty, you weren’t as good as Hoseok proclaimed you were but, you didn’t mind the dance sessions that always sometimes led to make out sessions.
Whispers went around the school about you and Hoseok. About how you had to be soulmates. The way he’d pick you up when he’d see you. The way you talked about him. You were very sure of your status.
This week was the first break of the year and although you really wanted Hoseok to come with you to your hometown, he decided to visit his family. Which you completely understood. Plus, you weren’t soulmates yet and it would be a little suspect if he came to see your family when you guys were so close. Both of you were not really prepared for quizzical aunties and teasing uncles. You did, however, promised each other to call before bed.
Before being bombarded with relatives and their neverending inquiries you decided to spend a day in your hometown. You just had to see and visit everyone.
You made sure to have your wallet and phone on you as you went outside and met with your former neighbor Namjoon. You two were really close in high school. Namjoon was definitely like a big brother to you.
Namjoon did a lot for you in your teenage years. For example, when you got sick with the flu right before a big school dance instead of going to the dance, as you told him too, he stayed with you. He’s been with you through thick and thin. Like that one time that goldfish you got from the fair died and you were a mess.
You happily bounced up to Namjoon with a big smile and he gave you a fist bump.
“You ready for some brunch and shopping?” Namjoon asked opening his car door for you,
You nodded and got in,” Of course, Joonie.”
Namjoon was always very smart. He taught himself English just by watching a tv show. To counteract all the genius he was made up with, the universe added clumsiness and the ability to break everything he touched.
He rolled his eyes and closed the door before getting in the car. As soon as he turned the car on the speakers played an upbeat sounding song.
You gasped in sarcastic surprise, ”Kim Namjoon? Namjoon? Joon? Joonster? God of destruction? Listening to this upbeat stuff? What happened?”
Namjoon always listened to songs with ‘deep’ lyrics and a good beat so this cheerful song was definitely out of ordinary.
“Actually, if you listen to the lyrics-” You should’ve known where this was going. You were talking to a music major and philosophy minor,” The song is about a couple who need to break up for the sake of their own health but, feel stuck in this loop of pretending to be happy or mistaking the dependency of each other for love and not wanting to leave but, also needing to.”
“Damn,” You said quietly.
“Plus... Jin says I should listen to more upbeat music.” He added trying to ignore the slight embarrassment on his face while driving out of your old neighborhood.
“You? And Kim Seokjin? The dude with the broad soldiers and dad jokes?” You asked shocked. You went to college with Jin. In fact, he was double majoring in culinary and business and you both had the same culinary course. You talked about cooking techniques and sent each other culinary memes.
“We’ve been together for a little while,” Namjoon told you before pausing,” About a month now. Anyway. How are your courses?”
“They’re good. I’ve been taking English courses and it is really hard but, I’m doing well.” You admitted to him, “That’s not the point though! When did you and Jin get together?”
“Well…” Namjoon started, turning onto a street filled with cafes, antique, art stores, and so on so forth,” You can start skyping me and I’ll tutor you while I work on my work. ”
You huffed at his lack of an answer but, decided he’d tell you when the time came as if he was the mentor of the protagonist in an anime.
Namjoon parked in a big lot with a food truck in the center. You got a strawberry parfait and he got a breakfast burrito. You left the car in the parking lot and started walking to look at the shops.
“Oh. How are you and Hoseok?” Namjoon asked as you peeked in one of the window shops.
You and Namjoon go to the same university but, because of your departments, you never saw each other. Even then, he’s surely seen or heard things.
“We’re good.” You answered slowly.
“Did you get your soul mark yet?” He continued his interrogation.
“No… Not yet.” You shook your head.
“Huh-” Namjoon let out before a loud gasp was heard.
“Y/N? Namjoon?”
You both jerked up to see who was calling your names.
“Jungkook!” You grinned and he immediately in engulfed you in a hug.
If Namjoon was your big brother, Jungkook was your first love. They both knew a lot about you but, Jungkook had a lot more intimate knowledge about you. Though, Namjoon talks to you more often. Ever since Jungkook was excepted in the sports part of your university and you were accepted into the arts, you never see each other or even speak to each other.
Seeing him is like a big gulp of fresh air. Why? Why does seeing him make you so happy? He’s just an old friend…
He lets go of you and gives you a heartwarming grin before him and Namjoon slapped hands.
“I haven’t seen you guys in forever!” Jungkook beamed,
“It feels like it. How’s judo?” Namjoon asked.
“Lots of training! I actually have a competition tomorrow.”
Namjoon looked at his phone while you excitedly hit Jungkook’s arm.
“Look at you! How do you feel? Are you ready?”
Before Jungkook could answer, Namjoon spoke up,” Actually, we gotta go.”
You pouted,” We just got here, Namjoon!”
“I know, I know. But, my parents need my help.” Namjoon explained.
“Uh.” Jungkook spoke up, “You and I can hang out and I’ll take you home. If you want.”
“I’m down for that.”
You and Jungkook parted ways with Namjoon. After a few minutes of walking together, Jungkook’s car came into view. It was a very nice newer black car. He got it a few days after high school graduation.
Jungkook looked over at you,” You know… even though we haven’t seen each other in a while. I bet somethings haven’t changed.”
“Oh really?” You raised your brows, “ What hasn’t changed?”
“Me being faster than you!” Jungkook exclaimed before booking it to his car.
You chased after him trying desperately to beat him but alas he was holding your door for you when you jogged up.
You huffed at him once you got in the car and he shut your door before getting in his seat.
“Another thing is, you’re still a sore loser!” He cooed playfully at you as he buckled up and started the car.
Jungkook took you to an arcade you both frequented in high school. You gave him a grin as a flood of memories hit you. You two taking up the DDR machine and using all of the tickets you got to get candy. You becoming the skee-ball score holder for the arcade.
You exhaled bringing yourself back to this source of nostalgia before you both run into the arcade and locking eyes with the legendary machine. No one was standing around it. As if it was waiting for the iconic Dance Dance Duo you were. You both played a few rounds of DDR then moved onto skeeball, you played a bunch of rounds and created a pile of tickets.
Jungkook was huffing, “You used to be in worse condition than me after a few rounds of Dance, Dance.”“I dance a lot now in days.” You replied, focusing on the perfect way to get the highest amount of points.
You both played a bunch more games and created a mountain of tickets. Took the mountain and dropped it on the prize counter. The poor, poor teenage boy behind the counter.
“ We want as many of the five ticket candies as this will buy.” Jungkook declared.
The boy grabbed a bag and just dumped all of the candies in the display case into the bag.“Thank you, my good sir!” You smiled.
Soon enough, it was getting late and Jungkook was driving you home. You were eating some of the well-earned candies and he parked in front of your house before looking at you.
“Man, I miss nights like this.” He told you.
You nodded,” Me too. Me too.”
Tonight was a night you missed. You didn’t realize how much you missed nights like these. How much you missed Jungkook. His beautiful brown eyes. His pink lips that looked so soft. Especially now that they were getting closer to yours. Oh… they’re as soft as they look now that they’re on yours.
You gently pulled away from him,” Jungkook… I’m dating someone.”
He sighed and sat back,” I know.”
“You know?” You asked, kind of shocked.
“Y/N, of course, I know. Everyone knows about how much ‘couple goals’ Jung Hoseok and L/N F/N. I’ve seen you two in the dance room together.” Jungkook told you with hurt laced in his voice.
“Then why would you kiss me?!” You retorted.
“Why did you kiss back?” His head snapped towards you.
“B-Because… I…” You tried to come up with a reason.
“You know the universe would never do that to us. We were each other's first kisses. Y/N, you are my first love. I’m a thousand percent sure that you’re soulmate and I don’t care if I have to wait for our soul marks to come. It would be a cruel joke for the universe to not make us soulmates.” Jungkook smiled at you.
“I’ll wait for you.”

Personality;
For the most part, Ma-Chan is known as a textbook introvert. Prefers staying indoors, is mostly quiet outdoors, and is so much more expressive towards those she is comfortable with. She’s also the ‘brilliant, but lazy’ type, preferring to either sleep or play video games during her leisure time, to the point others actually question how she got into her profession, in the first place. At least, until they hear her input on things. Still, when she’s feeling it, or during the times where she’s focused, she actually can get things done, getting really into what she had set her sights on, to the point that she ruins her own sleep schedule just to focus on what she’s currently focusing on.
She’s also one who really enjoys memes, and silly things, sometimes laughing on the most stupid of things, too, and would most certainly get out of her way to spend a good majority of the time on looking for ‘spicy memes’, as she call them. Some can say that her sense of humor is somewhat dark, too, depending on the situation.
However, she does tend to bottle up her emotions, to the point that she doesn’t speak out whenever people did ostracize or berate her if said occasions do happen. This then would sometimes lead to emotionally explosive scenarios when she does reach her breaking point. Hence, she simply does her best to ignore most things that would stress her, and simply do the things that actually help with alleviating her stress.
Backstory;
Born to, or rather, adopted into an above-than-average middle-class lifestyle, Ma-Chan had it easier than others. What with her being well fed, well educated, and taught to be a good person, in general. However, the expectations for her were high, considering that it was found during her early age that she was more intelligent than her other peers, and thus, had to make sure said expectations were met, keeping a good reputation on her earlier school years as much as she could, all while trying to balance out leisure activity, as well.
However, she did experienced her fair share of misfortunes. To start things off on said misfortunes that really left an impact on her, the supposed ‘aunt’ that should supposedly take care of her during her younger years while her mother had to work abroad, didn’t really do good on that department, and did the opposite. In other words, she wasn’t treated well. At least, until such problem was finally found out by other relatives, and got said aunt away from her before things had gotten worse.
Additionally, her choice of peers were, to be fair, while they were fun, not really the absolute best. On one point, they’d be good with her, on another point, she’d be made fun of. Didn’t help that at times, a few of them pressured her on to do some things due to the fact that she found difficulty on turning them down or simply say no, either by shouldering some of their expenses, or outright giving some of her possessions to them, regardless of the fact that she knew that she won’t be able to get a new one to replace the one she had just given away again. Really, guilt tripping her that she’s “more well in life than them” anyway didn’t help.
All these were a good recipe on why she had inner problems to deal with up to this day. She didn’t opened up to anyone, she didn’t see any therapist, at all, hence why there would indeed be problems she had to deal with as it festered on within her, that can sometimes be seen even to this day.
Yet, despite all this, it was, as funny as it sounded, video games that had helped her cope with things, as well as reading stories and all, and listening to music. These are what kept her together.
Come her university life, and she did think that things would be okay now. A new chapter, so to speak. Everything did turned out initially well. New peers, good memories, and the like. But a few years onward, it only really took an a drinking session with said peers that the following few days, almost everyone of those peers were turning on against her, due to one of them accusing her of something she didn’t even do. The only friend that believed she didn’t do what they were accusing her can’t even help her, due to the fact that they’re outnumbered and all that. This then caused her to shut herself off from others completely, just minding her own business, not bothering on actually trying to socialize much, which also took a heavy toll on her academics.
Upon learning that her adoptive mother died eventually did also added to her distraught more, motivation leaving her and all. She did inherit a good amount of money, and land, and other properties to her name, but from where she’s from, even family relatives, if one were unlucky to be part of such a family, do tend to be enemies, or even go so much as to plot the death of another member, all for the inheritance, so that got her worried as well, considering that its only really her mother that’s holding the others back when she was alive.
She did her best to have her academics on a stable route again, with very much of a struggle due to her being so down in the dumps, but she did found her motivation again, however, and eventually slowly built that up, until she had finally gotten things sorted out a bit, as well as finish her studies.
She had to keep forward, after all. If there’s one thing she had learned from her family that she was adopted to, then it was tenacity. She built herself up, slowly, surely, and was able to finally, at the very least, get herself together enough that she wouldn’t be as self-destructive as she was back then.
Additionally, as well, after meeting Ojou-Sama, it actually helped her piece herself back together more and more, until she’s finally able to get back up to her feet properly this time, without slipping and tripping back down, unlike before.
Life may be cruel at times, or would have a very nasty sense of humor, but she had to continue on, after all. Enjoy what she’s doing in her life, ignore most of the things that can potentially drag her down, make sure she stays alive and not resort to the self-destructive tendencies she had been doing. Sure, she still have to deal with her inner problems, but she’s making sure to make a steady progress.
Be All Smiles.
Facts;
-Whenever she introduces herself by name, there would always be interruptions, or loud noises that would mute that out. Really, a funny coincidence that happens all the damn time, hence she resorted to just give out her nickname. ‘Ma-Chan’. It was, of course, taken from one of the games she had been playing on her smartphone, which in turn, is also a nickname given by one of the characters in-game, considering the main character there is only referred to as ‘Master’ and all.
-The white streaks on Ma-Chan’s hair is natural. Or rather, it was brought upon by constant stress. At times, she also jokes that she’s getting old really early, too.
-As shown on the image above, she was given a really wondrous body that people would kill for. She does get teased or get called out on, due to her eye-catching features, but pays no heed to them, really.
-Since she did also inherit a renting business, she does make sure to keep the rent per month on an affordable level, knowing how hard things can be on the country she came from. At times, when she does make sure that the renter can’t pay up for the month, due to any serious reason, she’d give that month free of charge. Sure, its bad business practice, but its better that way, too. Its either lose a portion of income, or see that person have troubles on thinking where they can find a place to stay in again.
-She did also eventually set up her own research facility, too, that helps with the further development of the world for the foreseeable future. While she did reach some scientific milestones, she really doesn’t brag about it, as there’s no real reason to. She’d already proven herself. That’s enough, and no real need to rub it on other people’s faces.
-See, outside of the science stuff, she applies her intelligence over to playing video games, too, what with doing near perfect runs, or outright perfect runs, at her very first attempt of the game, single player-wise. Multiplayer-wise, she does tend to outsmart and outplay others. This wasn’t really a closed secret, anymore, too. Rather, Ma-Chan didn’t care anymore, when people ask her of such, she simply replies with “Maturity doesn’t mean you have to give up what you enjoy. That’s something we all fail to understand, at times.”
-She only has very few peers at this point, seeing that this is outright better than to make peers with as much people as she could, which she did back during her younger years. And out of the very few peers she can count by hand, its Ojou-Sama that she trusts the most.
-And as stated, the reason why she also had very few peers now is that she has this strong inability to say “no”, hence why she keeps her number of peers very limited, as said inability to say “no” would just lead to a wide array of abuse.
-She’s a fan of several shows, anime, and games, that at times, she’d start making references out of them, from out of the blue. Its funny and silly when she does it. But she doesn’t really mind, anymore.
-She’s an avid fan of the works of HP Lovecraft, or cosmic horror, in general, that she can rattle and talk about things related such for hours on end. Well, such knowledge of such did helped, especially when she and Ojou-Sama, are one of the very select few that get to know of the existence of Vacosians, or simply put, Outer Gods, which then made her realize that these weren’t just the works of a man. This was a very concise, depiction and recollection of very real beings, which were projected into his works. Not only that, but she also found out that other worlds with sentient life, as well as straight up universes, exist too, which also proves the Multiverse Theory, as well. Thus, this all happened due to the Noodle Incident involving her, Ojou-Sama, and █████. Hence, they never really talk about it, or refrain from talking about it. Thus, Ma-Chan keeps a tight lip of their existence. Her only dismay is that horror games wouldn’t be as scary anymore, though.

If you find yourself needing a temporary distraction from the angst for a while, again, for the Ship Headcanon Meme thing: 1-5, 9, 12, 13, 21-29 (or really any combo there of, doesn't have to be all of them) for Peter/Noah (for preference), Chris/Noah, and Chris/Peter (also acceptable). Because the TW DILFs always need more love, and it's always fun to see how other people's thoughts/headcanons compare to my own. :D
Truth be told a distraction is very welcome today and I’m very happy to answer each and every one of these. So here we go for Peter/Noah:
1. Who makes the first move and how?
Canon verse: Noah was a young deputy who kept having to arrest a teenage trouble maker Peter. And Peter kept trying to push himself onto the older man, though naturally, Noah didn’t respond to any of it while Peter was underage and merely ignored him. When Peter’s 20 though, and Noah 25, he caves and eventually asks out the young college-bound Hale by asking him out on a date to the place where he first arrested Peter.
Once Upon a time verse:
Noah moved first, surprisingly. Yes, Peter flirts and gets in Noah’s space and smiles at him like that, but he’s respectful about it. If Noah gives him a vibe he needs to back off, he does, and he doesn’t try to push himself on Noah too much. Eventually, when they’re about fourteen, Noah gets a bout of courage and corners Peter against a locker during lunch and pushes a wad of paper into his hands. When Peter reads it, one eyebrow up, it merely reads; will you go out with me? Peter only has to smile at the paper before he suddenly gets a peck on the cheek from the young druid and a “See you Saturday at 6 at Sal’s.”
Red Dead Redemption verse:
Peter returns to Beacon Hills after years of mayhem and running around West and Noah’s not sure how to handle him and his crew. But somehow he finds himself aligning with the outlaw king and sees how his way has merits. (Though he does try to get Peter on the straight and narrow, and succeeds for the most part too.)
Eventually, though, Peter makes a move when they’re alone by the river. They’re out on a bounty hunt together, who was an old associate of Kate Argent and someone who had to do with the Hale fire. And they’re standing there by the river, the sun bringing out the gold in Noah’s graying hair and Peter can’t help himself, he moves in and captures Noah’s lips in a searing kiss. A make-out session near the burning fire and running river ensues.
2. Who is the most insecure and what makes them feel better?
once upon a time
Noah’s the most insecure between the two of them, which is a result of what he went through at his father’s hands. The one thing Peter does to make him feel better though is wrapping him up in something, his arms, his jacket, a blanket and he just holds him close and lets Noah bury his nose in his neck.
canon
I’d like to say Peter is probably more insecure as the younger of the two. He looks pretty confident and suave but really, he’s quite insecure when it comes to their relationship and what Peter’s role is in it. Noah is a patient man though and always makes Peter feel better by reminding him just how much he saved Noah. He does that by pulling him close, by talking and by letting Peter know just how much he’s loved.
3. Who is the most romantic?
Both of them are romantic in their own way. Peter’s more the type for grand gestures like I rented a restaurant or bought you a car or I flew you to Paris. Where Noah is far quieter like, I cooked you your favorite dinner or I lit candles all around the room and have a single red rose for you as you come home. Or even simpler, I bought our favorite ice creams and rented our favorite movies and have two blankets and a couch. It’s all about the small gestures for Noah.
4. Who can’t keep their hands to themselves?
Peter. I feel like this goes without saying but Peter is a very tactile person and he constantly wants to run his hands all over his sheriff. That the sheriff lets him is just icing on the cake, really.
5. Who says ‘I love you’ first?
Noah, it comes out of nowhere, they’re just hanging out but at some point Noah just blurts it out and surprises even himself with it. But yeah I feel both of these boys wouldn’t say it easily but Noah would be the first to break. IMO.
9. What is the most embarrassing thing they have done in front of each other?
Noah definitely squirted soda out of his nose in front of Peter because he thought Stiles was coming through the door and almost choked on the illegal soda he was drinking.
Peter once had to walk butt naked through the sheriff station because he tried to surprise Noah and was instead caught by a very upset Parish. Noah had to watch Peter being marched through the station in his birthday suit with only his own hands for moderation.
12. What first changes when it starts getting serious?
The way they act in public, before that there’s always a barrier. A very serious tone to their interactions. Once things get more serious though, that barrier starts breaking down and they get more light-hearted with one another, more open in public. And occasionally are even shown holding hands or kissing one another while dropping each other off at work or dropping the kids off at school together.
13. When do they realize they should get together?
For Peter, it’s when Noah shows that he has Peter’s back through hard times. That whenever he’s in trouble in court cases, or in some verses, with the law itself or other factors, Noah’s there and he has Peter’s back. After the scuffle of the day is over, Noah is also there to take him home and Peter knows he doesn’t want anyone else in his life but this quiet idiot.
For Noah, it’s when he first sees Peter interact with kids and sees there’s a much softer side to the tough Peter Hale. He sees how absolutely caring Peter can be and what a good parent he could be if given the chance. For a man like Noah, who seems to be about domesticity, I’d say that’s a very attractive quality.
21. Where do they get nervous about going with one another?
Their respective families. They’re not really the type to bring someone home and the mere prospect of doing so gives both of them an aneurysm. Everywhere else is something that they might be able to handle together, but family, yeah, that’s a major hurdle.
22. Where does their first kiss happen?
I tend to imagine their first kiss somewhere in nature. They’re either standing near a river, a lake, looking up at the stars, at the base of the Nemeton (OUAT verse), etc. But they’re completely alone and only surrounded by nature.
23. Where is their favorite place to be together?
Either in nature or in their own homes. I like to imagine these two love to go hiking and camping and just being one with nature. Where Peter can run free in his evolved form and where Noah is free to perform his elemental druid magic.
Or in their own homes surrounded by lots of blankets and pillows and with their kids curled up beside them. That’s where I’d envision them to be happy.
24. Where do they first have sex?
In OUAT verse, it’s at the base of the Nemeton when they’re fifteen. Later that’s also the place where they bring Chris and where Peter is gifted with Chris’s virginity. Coincidentally it’s also the place where both sets of twins are conceived in that verse.
In the outlaw verse, it’s in Peter’s tent back at the outlaw camp. Of course, the entire camp hears them and it’s the talk of the camp for several days after.
In canon, I’d say it’s probably at Noah’s house or a motel room Peter booked for them while on a romantic getaway. But there’s some serious candle action going on and a lot of thought put into it. Or on the flip side of that, it could also be hot and fast in the back of the sheriff’s cruiser or on the hood.
25. Why do they fight?
Over stupid little shit like why are there a pair of socks in the middle of the room. Or why is the laundry next to the hamper. Or can you never put your dishes in the fucking dishwasher? Because Noah is a bit of a slob and Peter’s pickier about what goes where and how. But also over more serious things, like criminal activity, lying about whereabouts or activities or each other’s insecurities.
26. Why do they need to have a serious chat?
Because Noah won’t stop asking Peter where he’s been and with who and it’s driving Peter insane. He gets it, Noah’s insecure about being left behind or that Peter will find someone better, someone younger or someone with fewer problems. But Peter needs Noah to trust him.
On the flip side, Noah and Peter need to have a serious chat because Peter has a jealousy issue and a money spending issue. (Yes, Peter has the money, but that doesn’t mean he needs three expensive cars.) And also because Peter absolutely cannot show up buck naked at the sheriff station again.
27. Why do their friends get annoyed with them?
Because when these two agree on something, they’re a force to be reckoned with. You will not sway their mind, they will not keep their hands off of each other and while they will listen to your opinions, they will always come up with a better argument for theirs. It’s very annoying to be faced with ‘ that couple’.
28. Why do they get jealous?
Peter gets jealous because Noah smiled at someone or laughs at someone else’s jokes. He also tends to get a bit jealous when other people comment on how hot Noah is in his uniform. Because that is his officer, dammit. Get your own.
Noah gets jealous when Peter flirts with other people. He doesn’t show it when they’re around others, of course not. But once they’re alone he feels an inexplicable need to show Peter just who his ass belongs too.
The only time when Noah absolutely claimed his turf was that one time while on vacation in Italy and they were at a hotel bar with a rather annoying Spanish tourist who wouldn’t stay away from Peter. He may have kissed the wolf in public, put his hand in Peter’s back pocket, and called him darling while maintaining eye contact with the tourist.
29. Why do they fall a little bit more in love?
Because Noah bites his lip when he’s concentrating on a case and taps his nose with a pen or pencil while he’s doing crossword puzzles. And he looks so smart and young and irresistible that Peter just wants to stare at him all day. He falls more in love with every smile, with every wrinkle that develops over time and every small gesture that Noah does for him.
Noah falls more for Peter because Peter has a knack for calming him down when he comes home from a difficult case. He falls for the patience Peter has around kids and how wonderful of a parent and uncle he is. He falls more for Peter’s smile and youth every single day. He falls for his intelligence and the way he keeps surprising Noah and keeps him on his toes.
He falls for the many, many cuddles, both in human and wolf form. And he falls for the way Peter naturally falls into step beside him while they’re walking together. He falls for the way Peter runs his hands over his when Noah’s upset and for the way those arms wrap around him to keep him safe. He falls a little more every single day.

Are you waiting to be asked about Team STRQ? I'll bite. Team STRQ for the character ask meme.
You know it! Although I’mhaving a lot of fun with all of them.
Unsurprisingly doing four of my top favorites all at oncegot long, so I’m putting it under a read more.
Taiyang Xiao Long(YEAH BABY THAT’S WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT!)
· Favorite thingabout them: Everything. Alright,alright – anyone who has spent five seconds with me knows he’s my ultimatefavorite, I’ll try not to be TOO biased. I think what I like the most about Taiis that, while he has a bit of a fiery nature to him, overall, he seems like sucha gentle soul. He’s not afraid to be a little cheesy when it comes to praisinghis girls. He loves doting on them if the opportunity arrives (breakfast in bedfor Ruby, anyone?). He’s also not afraid to push them, yet still tries to be kindin his methods.
· Least favoritething about them: To be honest, while it’s absolutely understandable and realisticto how many parents do act in these situations, I wish Tai had been moreforthcoming about Raven when it came to talking to Yang about her (granted ifhe was, it would certainly lessen the impact of Yang’s own character arc, but Idigress). Keeping her completely in the dark is part of what leads his eldestinto her obsession with knowing more.
When the conversation finallydoes happen, I do like that Tai does his best to not badmouth Raven, which willallow for Yang to make her own decisions on what she thinks of Raven as aperson when she ultimately finds her – as he knows she will.
· Favorite line: Oooh Taiyang’skind of a walking Chinese proverb, so it’s a little hard to pick. I’m going togo with: “You’re right, it’s not coming back… but that doesn’t have to stop youfrom becoming who you want to be.” The message basically comes down to ‘don’tlet it be you who holds yourself back’. I’m sure all of us have faced being ourown worst enemies at times, wherein we never even try because we’re too focusedon saying “I can’t”.
Honorable shout-out to RWBY chibiand “I make a home for this family, that’s what I do all day! And it wouldn’tkill you to show a little APPRECIATION”.
· brOTP: No one gasps insurprise when I tell you it is Qrow. When it comes to actual canon, I like tothink these two are best friends that are as close as brothers in everythingexcept blood. They’ll always be there for each other when the worst of timeshits (Emotion-numbing depression vs. Blackout Binge Drinking).
…They’ll also pants one anotherin the middle of broad daylight for a cheap laugh (Cargo shorts really are easyto get down. One of these days, Tai might just go commando just so he cantraumatize Qrow once and for all).
…And argue over stupid shit likewhose turn it was to do the dishes (Hint: It’s always Qrow’s turn).
…And do irritating shit justbecause they know it annoys the other (Qrow has a really obnoxious singingvoice, so he makes sure to sing EXTRA loud when he knows Tai’s trying to gradepapers).
And yes, Qrow is absolutely theyounger brother.
-On a smaller, but no lessimportant note, I absolutely believe Taiyang had close friendships with Summerand Raven as well.
· OTP: As with all myfavorites, I will multi-ship the hell out of Tai, especially any that can fallunder the friends-to-lovers requirement.
Absolute top OTP will always beTaiqrow (A true shocker, I’m sure). The biggest drive I have for these two hasalways been the amount of emotional support available between them. There’s somuch potential simply on the lengths Qrow may have had to go through helpingout at the house after Summer’s passing or Tai’s rigorous efforts to try andpull Qrow away from his drinking habits. They’re also just… really sexytogether. Like hot damn.
I do remain rather fond of bothof Tai’s canon ships too though. Oh yeah and I will also polyship the hell outof Tai and you will have to tear STR-Crossed out of my cold, dead hands.
I’m also happy to throw him inthe ring with James and really enjoyed my little writing session withJames/Qrow/Tai.
· nOTP: Other thananything that puts him with one of his children, nothing that tends to botherme too much? Even Ozpin/Taiyang, while a little out of nowhere, is still prettysexy to read.
· Randomheadcanon: *Holds up 20* Which one do you want?
-Contrary topopular belief, it’s actually Tai thatRuby and Yang get their daredevil behavior from. Though he’s mellowed out overthe years and as he’s gained wisdom, when he was the girls’ age he could bejust as reckless. Many times, that had gotten him into trouble and, not wantingthe girls to make the same mistakes, tries to ward them from the same flaw hehimself had. (He’s secretly a little proud about it too).
-The sunflowers are either torepresent Summer Rose or they were originally tended to by her and Taicontinues caring for them to keep the memory of her alive. He always cuts freshflowers for the girls whenever they’re sick or hurt, so that their mother canwatch over them.
-Taiyang is either estranged fromhis family or lost it at a young age. He spent most of his childhood inisolation or feeling like he didn’t belong anywhere. When he became apart ofteam STRQ, he finally felt like he’d found a new family and it was one he neverwanted to give up – that was why losing Raven and Summer eventually crushed himand led to his mental breakdown.
-True to his name, Tai fucking loves dragons and if he ever gets luckyenough to see the Gods’ true forms, he’s going to flip out.
· Unpopularopinion: So maybe it’s just the generation I grew up in, but the ‘joke’Tai gives Yang about her arm? Yeahthat one didn’t even hit on my Richter scale as bad. These kinds of ‘off-color’jokes were pretty common place when I was a kid. I think it goes back to what Isaid about the Sun and ‘stalking’ thing. Intent is extremely important, and Taimeant nothing by it… except to make his daughter laugh.
Could it have backfired? Oh yeah,and he would have probably tripped over himself to apologize. But that wasn’twhat happened – nor was it what the writers’ intended to make that happen. Otherwise, they would have led Yang’sresponse in another direction or gave the animation team a specific expressioncue to work in.
· Song Iassociate with them: Going to continue picking random songs, because this isdefinitely not my strong suit. I probably went through all my playlists, but I’mgoing with Chris Daughtry’s “It’s Not Over”. If you read the verses as stages ofTai’s life with those important in it, it lines up fairly perfectly.
-The first twoversus are for Raven and their failed love (“You’ve taken away everything/And Ican’t do without, I try to see the good in life… This love is killing me”)
-Then the next two verses are forSummer and the loss of her (“I cannot wait/We’re wasting too much time… My lifewith you means everything/So I won’t give up that easily”)
-Finally the last verses are forQrow’s losing battle against his alcoholism and depression (“We can’t let thisget away/Let it out/Don’t get caught up in yourself”) and Tai’s own resolve to getback up and start again for his girls (“It’s not over, let’s start over!”)
· Favoritepicture of them:
Never been so attracted to a picturebefore.
Summer Rose
(Our dearestflower, born white and bled red in her final hour)
· Favorite thingabout them: For now, simply that it’s implied she was both a kickasshuntress and an incredible mom. Now, if only we could SEE that in action.
· Least favoritething about them: Well. Being dead’s kind of a drag,ain’t it? I feel my least favorite thing about her is the same thing we’re allkind of feeling at this point – that we know virtually nothing about her. I washoping she’d be brought up when the whole ‘Silver-eyed’ thing got addressed –BUT NO. I’M STILL STARVING RT, GIVE ME SOME CONTENT PLEASE.
· Favorite line: *Saves thisspace for when we get any*
· brOTP: I particularlyenjoy the dynamic Summer and Raven may have had. Like Qrow and Tai, I often seethe girls growing close during their years at Beacon, the two eventuallydeveloping a mutual respect for one another that turns into friendship. Theyboth start to realize just how much they care about each other when Raveninadvertently makes a portal to Summer to save her life. Summer is secretlyhappy whenever she manages to get Raven to confide secrets to her – one ofwhich was her growing feelings for Taiyang.
· OTP: Speaking of Tai,of course I rather enjoy that Summer and he had fallen in love. Just like with Taiqrow,the emotional support factor really drives this one in deep for me. I know thisone gets a lot of flack as a ‘rebound’ on Tai’s part (And equally should getflack on Summer for being a ‘Hero’s complex’, since she’s literally swooping into ‘fix’ what Raven broke), but I personally feel like their love was genuine, simplybecause of how significant an impact losing her had on Taiyang. Just because ithappened quickly after one loss does not immediately discredit it from beingtrue and powerful.
· nOTP: Absolutely herand Qrow. And yes, I know someone is going to call me out for this one because ‘I’vewritten it before’ – AND YES, I KNOW. It’s not that I don’t see the potential inthe ship because I absolutely do. It’s that I’ve come across it just one timetoo many that to put them together, it’s often done at the expense of villainizingTai, Raven, or both, which has soured my ability to enjoy it – one person inparticular does this so well that seeing her work actually turns my stomach. Ialso really think it weakens in-canon Qrow as a character, since I can’t fathomhim lying about being Ruby’s dad and most arguments that try to explain why hewould feel flimsy at best. Also, just, this: “Don’t lie to him Ruby, we’rebetter than that.”
(I will however accept PolyQrow/Summer/Tai in which neither of them know who impregnated Summer and Qrowjust goes by uncle because it was easier for the kids to understand).
· Randomheadcanon: -Summer Rose was first attempted to be killed by then lateractually killed by Marcus Black. The first encounter I see happening sometimein her school years, in which on a mission he comes after her. Taiyang has tointervene, maybe at the cost of his own semblance, and eventually they’re both savedby Raven and Qrow who portal to them just before either are killed. In thesecond, Summer is alone and is being hunted down both by Marcus and his wife.Though she calls Qrow for back-up, he never gets there in time. In the last fewminutes, she manages to kill Marcus’ wife, but is in turn killed by him. I particularlylike this because this would make Qrow and Marcus foils, both who startdrinking heavily from loss but have different responses to those around them.
-HAVE I EVERTOLD Y’ALL ABOUT MY EVIL SUMMER IDEA? I have said it once and I will say it again:black magic and curses are criminally unused in this fairytale inspired show.The idea that Summer was ‘brought back to life’ by Salem to use for her ownpurposes is deliciously fun – or, seeing as we don’t know what it can do yet,being brought back by the relic of creation. In ether scenario, it brings backthe body but not the heart. Her reveal would be devastating to _TRQ, especiallyif they are forced to fight her. If they did I see the scenario going inmultiple directions –
A. In a team fight: Either theyare all killed by her or they kill her
B. In single fights:
+Raven is killed by Summer or theykill each other. I see Summer giving out a lot of passive-aggressive quips overRaven running off and maybe even goads her about her powers and her fears.
+For Qrow, I never see him dyingto her in a one-on-one fight. Getting heavily injured, yes, but never dying. Ido see them being fairly evenly matched, actually. And maybe even Summergetting super offended if he uses his scythe on her.
+Tai fights her, but spends themajority of the battle on the defensive, trying to remind her of who she reallyis. Just as he’s got her hesitating, another villain either injures him orstrikes him down.
That’s not even touching on whatit would mean for Ruby and Yang to encounter her.
· Unpopularopinion: While I do think she probablyhad a habit of being socially withdrawn, I really don’t see Summer as painfullyshy-mannered as some of the fandom portray her as – at least not to a debilitatingextent. I don’t think it’s a bad character trait for her, per say, and it worksin some contexts especially when it’s balanced well. It’s just hard to see hermanaging to survive as team leader with such a submissive personality traitwithout the twins or Tai completely eclipsing her.
· Song Iassociate with them: Mostly because I once envisioned an entire fight scene leadingto her death to this song, I’m going to go with “Heroes” by Zayde Wolf.Surprisingly though, it fits fairly well. Being a ‘hero in the darkest of times’really does exemplify what a huntress is and what Summer herself is meant torepresent.
· Favoritepicture of them: *Saves this space because she stubbornly refuses to put up theteam STRQ photo we’ve all seen ten thousand times*
Raven Branwen
(The sexiestpsychobitch you ever will meet)
· Favorite thingabout them: Her character potential. With the end of volume 5, it feels likeshe’s been left at a crossroads, in which she can choose to continue to lookout for herself like the coward she’s been, or choose to attempt to redeemherself when her daughter gets into trouble again. The fact that we haven’t quiteseen the result of her visit to Tai (or if it ended up being a visit at all)tells me the team is holding back on that decision for now; but, I have absolutelyno doubts that we will be seeing her again.
· Least favoritething about them: Can anyone say manipulative bitch bordering on total sociopath? Thatfirst conversation Raven has with Yang made me jerk back a bit and go ‘Whoa,crazy alert’. It’s definitely a trait that is um… a little hard to like. It hasmassive amounts of writing potential though.
· Favorite line: “Two childrenyou’ve tricked into following you, a disgraced Atleasian scientist, and a FallMaiden with a surname so appropriate, she probably picked it herself. Thatabout right?” Vol 5. Chapter 9 gets a lot of flack for not being veryinteresting, but I could not get enough of Raven’s snark throughout theconversation.
· �� brOTP: How about withher literal brother? I’m a total sucker for inseparable twins and I’ve alwaysliked the idea that, growing up, the two of them were extremely close. Raven’sa teeter-totter of opposites for me, so I can also see that relationship goingin the exact other direction – BUT FOR NOW…
· OTP: Speaking of teeter-totters,how about that relationship with Tai, huh? Was it toxic as hell or did they trulylove each other and just had an awful falling out, wherein the bitterness wouldsettle in much later on? Who knows! I don’t! But I love exploring both anglesto their fullest extent. I’ll also drive the pain all the way in: If Taiyangends up dying in canon, the break of their bond is powerful enough it causesRaven to cry.
In AUs, I ship the hell out ofSummer and Raven. In-canon, I’ll always go the STR-Crossed route in which allthree of them are just hopelessly in love with one another and in which Ravenpretends she doesn’t regret leaving them behind.
· nOTP: Honestly, beyondthe obvious incest ships (like with her daughter, wtf?), there’s not really anyships with Raven that make me squelch. Even a crackship like Cinder/Raven hasthis weird, sexy angle to it.
· Randomheadcanon: -Like everyone else, Raven used to have a copy of the team STRQphoto. Much like her brother, she kept it on her, even after she left. But shortlyafter Summer died, she burned the photo in the camp’s firepit, cutting off herfinal ties to them.
-Qrow and Ravenwere never sent to Beacon to ‘become huntsman and return with their skills’. Itwas what they were told but they were sent there because the leader at the timehoped they’d die in the process – in Raven’s case, to eliminate her dangerouslyambitious nature. Qrow always knew this was the real reason, but Raven didn’t acceptthis until much later. Upon her return to the tribe, she eventually confrontedand ultimately killed the former leader for that act.
-Though it relies on help fromone of her teammates, Raven can cut things in half with her portals if shecloses it when it’s only halfway through, and has done so on multiple occasionsto cut right through Grimm.
-Raven is either going to die acoward… or a hero.
· Unpopularopinion: I don’t really think Raven left because she got pregnant; ifRaven was so intent on abandoning her, I don’t feel like the show would tell usthat she visits her daughter enough that Yang is able to recognize her birdform. I think it’s an interesting angle, but I think her fear of Salem is thegenuine reason she left but she only really knew one other home: The Tribe. Herdecision to leave Yang behind either was forced from her by the rest of her teamor was her own choice at the time, knowing her daughter would be more at risk ifshe came along.
· Song Iassociate with them: Alright, I scoured around for a bit for this one. I’m going tosettle on “Heaven’s a Lie” by Lacuna Coil. Though there’s not much to actually workwith, it rather matches well with how she feels she was given false promises byOzpin (“Destiny of a lie/Set me free, your heaven’s a lie”) and how sheultimately left her team behind and returned a life of corruption (“I need toknow when I’ll fall into decay… I need to know why did I choose to betray you?Something wrong with all the plans of my life”)
· Favoritepicture of them:
God damn she’s hot when she’sabout to wreck people’s shit.
Qrow Branwen
(The man whowas Emo before it was cool)
· Favorite thingabout them: There’s a lot to love, from his dashing good looks to hisendless sass, but I especially like his emotional vulnerability. I think it’s thesadist in me, but I get endless amounts of joy from him letting down his wallsand being more open: talking about his semblance, panicking whenever Ruby is indanger, his fury and sorrow over Ozpin’s half-truths – yeah, I live for thisshit. If he cries in the show, it will almost definitely become my new favoritemoment.
· Least favoritething about them: So, fun fact: I hatedQrow at first and simply because of this fact -he’s a drunk. Now, this is superpersonal, but I grew up with addiction in my family, so characters like Qrowalmost never make it high up on my list, if they make it on at all. It’ll alwaysremain my least favorite thing about him, but I do like how the show isexploring the issue and, in fact, have enjoyed exploring it myself in mywriting. It’s therapeutic.
· Favorite line: As far as linedelivery goes, got to give it to “Look, this has nothing to do with trust. I- …It’s a long story, okay?” The amount of emotion put into those simple words is frankly,just beautiful. Got to also give proper appreciation to “I DID IT!” and “Well…that’s unfortunate.”
I’ll always be most fond of “Youtwo? You’re gonna go far. But only if you keep learning. If you never stopmoving forward.” Not only as it’s a homage to Monty, but it really shows Qrow’skinder, more loving side when it comes to his nieces.
· brOTP: So whileshipping them is generally off the table, Summer and Qrow being best friends isalways my jam. I can see these two having little drinking sessions together or gettingcompetitive over two-player video games. Perhaps they even geeked out togetherwhen they both realized they loved the tale of the Grimm Reaper. I also stronglybelieve that it was Qrow who encouraged Summer to admit her feelings to Tai, advisingher that to wait could mean to lose her chance entirely. And then, when sheactually did, teased her endlesslyabout it.
· OTP: Can I just fillout a second paragraph about how much I love Taiqrow? Because, I really love Taiqrow.I can see it happening entirely on accident. One night, Taiyang and Qrow aresaying good night and, without thinking, Taiyang just dips down and gives him akiss. He freaks out, not because of the action insomuch that he was afraid hejust ruined their friendship until Qrow just rolls his eyes and drags him infor another one.
On a side note, I’m really startingto get a soft spot for OzQrow and I blame the rest of the fandom for this. Ironic,that I ship them now that Ozpin has technically died and it’s TOO LATE.
As for James/Qrow, I see thehighlights of it, and in small measures like it myself, but it’s not very highup on my list.
Winter and Qrow is a total guiltypleasure ship and I’m not sorry.
· nOTP: Again, beyondthe obvious choices? Eh, I’ve noticed Tyrian/Qrow is gaining some traction and,while it definitely doesn’t give me the heebie-jeebies some ships do, that oneis definitely not my cup of tea.
· Randomheadcanon: -Qrow likes to bestow nicknames to people he likes, as nicknamesare terms of endearment to him. For people like James or Oz, who are Jimmy andWizard respectively, he uses them sparingly; whereas, for family, he tends touse them much more frequently. Especially with his nieces. They often can tell whenhe’s being serious or when they are in trouble if he starts using their actual names.When he was a teacher, almost all of his students got nicknames, since he wasterrible at remembering them by their actual names.
-Qrow’ssemblance caused him to be sent to Ozpin’s office. A lot. It gave everyone,except for the very few who actually knew what his semblance was, theimpression that he was nothing but a troublemaker. Eventually, Qrow started paying Glynda on theside to use her own semblance to fix whatever his would break.
-Qrow’s drinking actually startedin school. He’s generally a happy, reckless drunk, and people tended to likehis company more and, craving both that feeling and the attention, he continuedto seek out social events for an excuse to drink. When he was young, he wasalso extremely choosey on the brew he would have, as a bad mixture often hadthe effect of making his mood plummet instead. As he grew more dependent on thealcohol, he stopped caring as much.
-Qrow isabsolutely bisexual and no one can convince me otherwise.
· Unpopularopinion: I really don’t think Qrow sleeps around as much as the generalfandom believes he does. I get why the archetype is there, especially with how flirtatioushe can be, but with how insecure Qrow actually is, I feel like he’d actually bepretty hesitant when it comes to getting intimate, especially with strangers. Accidentalpregnancies, anyone?
· Song Iassociate with them: Okay this one was actually an easy choice: “Breaking the Habit”by Linkin Park. It really highlights the current struggle Qrow’s going throughin this volume (not knowing what is worth fighting for) while it also can relateback to his addiction and self-worth/depression issues (Not feeling all rightand hurting a lot more than ever before).
· Favoritepicture of them:
Just your resident bird man, looking badass as shit.

Ooh, a writing prompt meme! How about AX with Pega-Pony and her uncle Robin?
oh man I get to write Cynthia ovo ~
Buying them a special treat when you go out shopping.
Despite all the changes that had washed over the halidom in recent years, Chrom and Sumia’s popularity with the people remained completely unchanged – if anything, by Robin’s estimation they were more beloved than ever, and family outings tended to gather flocks of excited people hoping to catch a glimpse of the family up close.
Robin was grateful to still retain some level of anonymity. In spite of his station as Chrom’s advisor and the part he’d played in so many of the reforms, he had never garnered the same level of adulation that the Exalt and his family had. Perhaps it had to do with his Plegian origins (and insistence on displaying that heritage, regardless of the council’s obvious disdain), or perhaps it was simply that he could not claim any official attachment to the royal family; whatever the case, he was the only one of them that could still walk through the streets of Ylisstol without drawing more than a friendly call of greeting here and there…which was why he always volunteered to do the shopping in town, since he was the only one who wouldn’t be mobbed on sight.
He’d become a common sight around many of the shops, and made more than a few friends because of it. Several businesses had gone so far as to call him a patron, which he still found odd, but not unpleasant – especially given that one was a dressmaker who, in his opinion, had made all of Sumia’s most beautiful gowns. He made sure to tell her as much as they carefully folded the latest commission (deep plum and silver, the embroidered lilacs along its hems dotted with seed pearls) and tucked it into the case Robin had brought along to take it safely back.
“This your last stop for the day?” the woman grinned, glancing over the rest of his parcels: an armload of fresh flowers, a satchel of new books crowding out the ink and quills and parchment he’d only remembered at the last moment, a pair of sheathed swords (one rapier, one blunted broadsword since Chrom had broken the last practice blade in the garrison that morning), and now the dress case tucked beneath his free arm.
“No, one more,” he chuckled. “Magic shop. Lucina’s started taking a bit of interest in magic, and I need a wind tome to get her started.”
“Not gonna give her Thunder?”
“Not yet – I’d rather not risk someone getting set on fire just yet,” he grinned. “Wind tomes are good for beginners, since the worst an out-of-control spell will do is knock things around.”
“A sound point,” she agreed, catching a bottle of ink before it could fall and tucking it more securely into its bag. “Good luck, then – and try not to buy too much more while you’re out, or you’ll never make it back.”
“I’ll make an attempt,” he promised. He had, if nothing else, planned his trip knowing he would end up carrying all he possibly could, and the magic shop was just down the street from the dressmaker; thanking her again as she saw him off, he carefully made his way to the quiet storefront and shouldered his way inside.
“Ah, if it isn’t my favorite customer,” the man laughed, hurrying over to catch the sheaf of parchment attempting to spill out of his satchel. “Last stop of the day?”
“Last stop,” Robin smiled, carefully putting down the case and flowers and repacking his satchel. “Two wind tomes, please.”
“Someone’s getting magic lessons, eh?” the shopkeeper ventured.
The tactician nodded, tucking ink bottles into his coat pockets to make room. “Lucina.”
“Already at that age? Gods, the time does fly – seems like just yesterday she was but a babe in arms.” The man sighed wistfully as he offered the books to Robin, who placed them with the others in the bag before digging about for his coin purse. “And Cynthia?”
“Rambunctious,” Robin chuckled. “She takes after her mother in imagination, after her father in passion…and after them both in her penchant for breaking things.”
The shopkeeper’s hearty laughter filled the room as the tactician counted out the coins, glancing briefly around to ensure that there was nothing else he needed–
Robin paused, tilting his head at an odd item tucked almost out of sight behind the counter. “What’s that?”
The man followed his gaze. “This?” he asked, lifting it from its place. “A little something my daughter’s been toying with. She’s been picking up the tomecrafting trade – bit of a genius, if I might say so – and started fussing with using what she learned for other things. This was her latest experiment – cute, isn’t it? Not quite what she wanted, though…”
“Is it for sale?”
The store owner quirked an eyebrow. “Got something in mind?”
“I do,” Robin smiled. “…and if I could ask one more favor: do you happen to have any feathers?”
“Uncle Robin!!”
Chrom and Sumia both lunged for Cynthia as she zoomed toward the door, only to miss spectacularly; it was Lucina who succeeded in catching her younger sister before she could bowl Robin over and send all this purchases flying.
“Thank you, Lucina,” the tactician laughed.
“Did you buy out the whole market?” Chrom joked, picking himself up off the floor and hurrying to take some of Robin’s packages.
“I bought what was on the list, so…yes,” he winked. “Your swords, by the way.”
“You sure you don’t want to keep them?” the Exalt asked as the tactician removed the baldric. “They look good on you.”
Robin rolled his eyes. “Take your swords and get that broadsword into the garrison before Frederick finds out you broke another one.”
“Yes, sir,” Chrom laughed, slinging them over his shoulder.
“Let’s see…we also have your flowers and your new dress,” he added, gesturing to the blooms now spilling out across the table, “plus the book order arrived at the shop.” Opening his satchel, he removed the two Wind tomes from the top and handed the rest to Sumia, who immediately began to scan the titles as he knelt before Lucina. “And I got these for us, so you can start to learn magic.”
Her eyes lit up, the Brand seeming to glow as she released her sister and took one in her hands. “Thank you, Uncle Robin,” she beamed. “When can we start?”
“When is your next training session with your father?”
“This afternoon – after I get that training sword put back,” Chrom replied.
“How about tomorrow, then. Can you wait that long?”
She pouted, hugging the spellbook tight to her chest. “I suppose.”
“We can start in the morning, then – hopefully the first lesson won’t run too long…though, if it does, I suppose I’ll have to help you make up your first tutoring session of the day, won’t I?” he winked, watching her expression brighten.
“That’s everything, right?” Chrom asked.
“Just about,” Robin murmured; looking around, he smiled as he watched Cynthia at her mother’s side, gathering up fallen petals in her skirt. “Just one more. Cynthia?”
She looked up with a brilliant smile, petals scattering in all directions as she hurried over. “I got something for my little pega-pony princess, too.” Reaching under his coat he removed a hobby horse, its white mane decorated with a few cloth flowers and the wheel at its base framed in white feathers like pegasus wings.
“It’s so cute!” Sumia laughed, petting its nose before he presented it to the bouncing princess. “Where did you find it?”
“The magic shop,” he replied. “It’s a bit special – watch.” Holding it up, he released it…but rather than fall, it simply drifted down until it hung a foot off the floor. “This way you can fly, too, just like your mama.”
Cynthia gaped at it for a moment, her pudgy hands reaching out and pulling it toward her. Hopping onto the padded stick, she jumped up as high as she could into the air – and squealed as it carried her lazily back down, continuing to hover where just the tips of her toes touched the ground.
“Do you think she likes it?” Chrom teased as Cynthia proceeded to zip around the room.
“I simply can’t tell,” Robin sighed, watching as she clambered up onto the nearest chair and launched herself off the arm, shrieking in delight as the hobby horse floated back down.
“Cynthia,” her father called (though he only managed to get her attention after the third amused repetition). “Do you have something to say to your uncle?”
She beamed, zooming back to them and flinging herself into Robin’s arms with enough force to knock him out of his crouch. “Thank you thank you thank you, Uncle Robin!!” she giggled. “This is the bestest present ever!”
“I’m glad you like it,” he murmured, hugging her tight. “You should go show it to Auntie Lissa and Owain – I bet he’ll be thrilled to have a real pegasus knight in the Justice Cabal, don’t you?”
Her eyes lit up at the prospect, and before any of them could move she had grabbed her new toy and vanished out the open door. “I’ll keep an eye on her,” Chrom laughed, jogging out into the hall in pursuit of his youngest daughter – and Robin simply smiled as Cynthia’s laughter echoed back down the hall to his ears.

omg do all the dnd asks im so curious !!!
Long boi this one is
1. A favorite character you have played.
This is a hard one, I was a real big fan of my storm barbarian Tiffany, or Unfaceable the ranger I played awhile ago. They were more or less the same character
2. Your favorite character that someone else has played.
Oh absolutely Ragnarok the Winged One, he was my friend Juan’s first character I think (if not first one of the first). He was a white dragon born sorcerer, who didn’t actually have wings for 96% of the campaign. He also hated capitalists so goals really.
3. Your favorite side quest.
One time I tried to set up a One night ultimate werewolf side quest, and it kinda worked, it’s just we stopped playing for like 2 months and they didn’t finish it.
4. Your current campaign.
I’m currently in Dungeon of the Mad Mage as an Aasimar Warlock!
5. Favorite NPC.
Pit Man.
6. Favorite death (monster, player character, NPC, etc).
So, technically they didn’t die, but one my players character went into the Negative Plane to marry a nightwalker who was going to be the final boss, but I felt really bad for all of them after making them do a like 4 stage thing.
7. Your favorite downtime activity.
Rivals!!!!! They are the coolest thing.
8. Your favorite fight/encounter.
The Strahd fight when I ran CoS last year was p cool, they all died but it was really not close (They got him to like 15 hp but there’s still tons of bullshit to do after that) or the final fight I did as Unfaceable, we fought a beholder and I was paralyzed for like 6 rounds.
9. Your favorite thing about D&D.
Honestly, I enjoy seeing people get excited about playing the game. Like when Juan (Tbh he’s just my all time favorite player sorry everyone else) got a crit while we were playing in the cafeteria and just fucking yelled about it.
10. Your favorite enemy and the enemy you hate the most.
OH fccuk this is a hard choice. I really think Nightwalkers are like the coolest right now since I love Negative plane shit. I think dragons are kinda overrated as enemies tho, i don’t hate them really tho since dragons are dope as fuck.
11. How often do you play and how often would you ideally like to play?
I Dm about twice a week and play once a week, Ideally I’d play or dm every day and have no other obligations but life is simply unfair
12. Your in game inside jokes/memes/catchphrases and where they came from.
Temaridy
13. Introduce your current party.
We’ve got Krosnis, my Celestial Warlock, Temaridy, a Tiefling Fiend Warlock, Sigil, a Warforged Eldritch Knight, Ketla, a uh, the elvish giants, FIRBOLG, Moon Druid, and shit fuck uh, the Abjuration Wizard, who’s name is, uhh, Enzio? Idk his name but the player canonically decided he looks like Fenris so that’s all that matters.
14. Introduce any other parties you have played in or DM-ed.
Hmmm this is a tough choice there’s tons of them.... I’ll do the first party I solo DM-ed for I guess since they were p cool: Hellspawn, a Tiefling Monk with the homebrew way of the 8 gates of hell subclass (He was so goddamn edgy, and played by @t-rexquefuturus even tho he doesn’t really use tumblr), Thargus Irvin, a Totem Barbarian (Played by @themonotonyofdays fun fact i guess?), Borges, an Alchemist who was just trying his best, Mikono, who was also trying his best but was much sadder about it (Played by @tsurikun so double fun fact in one post actually boom), uhhhhhh, Delgor? Delgar? Del-something, a Battlemaster Warlock multiclass, i’m not sure what delgar was triyng to do (other the complain about hellspawn yeah i went there they don’t have a tumblr so none of you better snitch on me i stg) and last (literally he joined in towards the end of the campaign) Magnus, a uh, Mystic, he was there
15. Do you have snacks during game times?
Yeah usually, me like snackys
16. Do you play online or in person? Which do you prefer?
I do both! I prefer in person since it’s harder for people to talk online since it all gets muddled
17. What are some house rules that your group has?
Er, on the sly anything goes tbh if it seems cool enough
18. Does your party keep any pets?
In the current one we have so many familiars it’s crazy.
19. Do you or your party have any dice superstitions?
Amy (The one who loves pit man) rolls all her dice at the start and takes the one that did the best
20. How did you get into D&D? How long have you been playing?
In highschool i played 2 times for like, 10 hours each time? that was so fucking long holy shit, and the freshman year of college i started co-dming a group and then it took off from there
21. Have you ever regretted something your character has done?
Tbh, not really? Like, 80% of them are dumb as fuck so jot that down, but I don’t usually do stuff in game that I regret, except that one time i died but it was to be a hero so worth it
22. What color was your first dragon?
I think it was a baby black dragon?
23. Do you use premade modules or original campaigns?
I use both depending on how busy I am
24. How much planning/preparation do you do for a game?
Depends? I usually do a lot of long term planning early on and then not too much per session
For DMs
25. What have your players done that you never could have planned for?
The one group got really attached to some meaty boiz, and then the one player killed all of them and like most of the party, great way to end the campaign
26. What was your favorite scene to write and show your characters.
Oooo, hmmmmmmmmm, I really had a good plan for the end to this arc (the one with the nightwalker) but it kinda didn’t really happen how i planned which was a bit of a bummer, but it worked out in sort of a better way
27. Do you allow homebrew content? Yeah as long as it doesn’t seem like super busted
28. How often do you use NPCs in a party? I usually give npcs if they need like a healer or something, like Kargol
29. Do you prefer RP heavy sessions or combat sessions?
I don’t really have a preference for either? My groups get a lil bloodthirsty if they go too long with a fight usually (Except you @themoragontrail just pacifist running a whole session and a half)
30. Are your players diplomatic or murder hobos?
Oh definitely murder hobos
For Players
31. What is your favorite class? Favorite race?
Oh this is hard, I’m a big fan of Warlock customization and flexibility, I don’t really have favorite race (It’s tieflings I read homestuck feel free to at me)
32. What role do you like to play the most? (Tank/healer/etc?)
I’m usually a tank/front line, It’s where I like to be, does it always end well? Not even close, does my warlock have more hp than our fighter? Hell fucking yes
33. How do you write your backstory, or do you even write a backstory?
So, it depends? I usually do it last once I’ve made the rest of the character and use it as a reason why their the way they are now. And I give like 65% of them heterochromia cause i thinks it’s sick as fuck
34. Do you tend pick weapons/spells for being useful or for flavor?
as someone who loves lances, need i say more?
35. How much roleplay do you like to do?
It depends on what game i’m in, i usually don’t do too much rping in combat heavy stuff, but i like to, and also i love rping sub 8 int, or 14>= int but that’s just me irl and let me tell you, I’m a dumbass who will eat the exploding rock
