Im thinking about miraculous future stuff based on some lore and cultural inspirations (because i don't want to think about finals rn), and something that i don't think will happen, but would be interesting if it did happen is if Felix were to be snapped out of existence.
I think if this were to happen then it would probably just be temporary, but considering his arc and everything, there could be some interesting ideas in this. Like take his miraculous. It is the peacock miraculous, and it creates life. This in and of itself is heavily loaded when you look into potential irl cultural inspirations.
Warning i am not including any citation in this, but i will be making a series this summer exploring in depth the different cultural influences in miraculous and how they may or may not pertain to the story. I'll be more thorough there.
So first something i just found on a site is that supposedly in roman times peacocks were an important symbol representative of death, funerals, and resurrection in particular. Supposedly early christians decorated their tombs with a lot of peacock iconography because of this association.
I wouldn't be surprised if this association with peacocks and death/resurrection had some connection to the story of Hera and Argos, when Hera took the eyes of Argos and put them in the tails of peacocks feathers/she brought him back as a peacock. In some european cultures it seems there was an association between peacocks and bad luck and death (i need to look more into this) then of course there's the obvious association between price lucifer and peacocks that i feel like most people (in the west at least) are aware of.
So in India there is an association between a mythical bird called Garuda, who Vishnu would ride. Peacocks were made from the feathers of Garuda (i don't know, sounds kinda familiar to me). Peacocks by association with Garuda seem to be representative of time, and preserving and maintaining balance in the cosmos. Specifically due to how they eat poisonous snakes, which snakes are symbolic of cyclical time.
Next up in China, this is where things get really interesting. It is associated with a goddess named Guan Yin, and transmutes evil into beauty. Also a peacock is the manifestation of the Phoenix. So let's talk about phoenix's for a second. So a Phoenix represents things like virtue, duty, humanity, strength, good fortune, etc. Also phoenix's generally show up if an empire was good, or as a premonition of the rise of empires.
So i should clarify, this Phoenix (also known as a Fenghuang) isn't exactly the same as the western phoenix, which i was not aware of until now, but we're in too deep to go back baby lets gooooooooooo
So the western phoenix does go through a cycle of death and rebirth, but the Fenghuang is just immortal and doesn't die. So... Yea... I'm still gonna post this because its finals week and i have virtually no quality filter rn. I just might not tag it.
So i was gonna say that Felix would pull a Phoenix and just like will himself back to life or something, which could be interesting considering his whole arc of having no control of his life or whether or not he lives or dies, but i guess this is all being thrown out the window!
This is what i get for researching things. I am proven wrong in the middle of writing an epic post, and then I have to admit I'm wrong.
Oh well. I'll have more fun dissecting the lore later anyway.

Im glad the trips went well :D
:0 tag us if you post the Dino
Those sound like great ideas for gender system(s) I think some rly cool things could come from that >:D
Yeah same I’m slowly began fronting the most and-
>:) now I rly wanna make the coining blog
Have any name/url ideas?
It probably could be super “fancy” yk how made are like sunflower themed or lovecore etc I don’t think we could keep up with fancy tags and keeping the blog looking fancy but we could maybe keep up a space theme
Oh yea- gotta take care of the body /Silly/Cj (cope joke)
We’ll go enjoy that tea and time with partners (I need more info on the dnd story line lmao what’s going on, how did he get to the bar, why does he need to conceal his identity?!/Silly/Nf)
Dino post is coming up in a moment, I need to do the dishes real quick and take a picture of him!!! (And make an image description for said picture so that may take a small bit because I am Bad at those- /lh) Thank you!!
I don't front the most but I have a tendency to get stuck in front quite a bit when I do front, and I have to readjust to needing actual things like food instead of just needing that as more of a "this is a thing I do not because I need to because I'm a metaphysical human thing/snake but because it feels more normal and 'human-ish' to do so than to go without". (/source and headspace) I also end up having to remember I can't just shapeshift, and so I end up changing shape in the innerworld and then having phantom limbs or sensations in the outerword. I think our most frequent fronters at the moment are Remus (he/they/it/any neos), and Virgil (he/they/it/scary neos), but I don't know for sure because I don't really manage that part of keeping track of the system. /tangent
Make the blog!!! It'd be great!!! (/nf) I don't remember if our blog has a theme other than "queer mogai"? And then space because space is a long term hyperfixation of ours, and bat-cat from CRK because someone decided they liked him and used him for a barcode icon thing. /lh
Some name/URL ideas: Spacequeers, Coining-in-Space, and heyyyycoining !!
I will!!! And of course!! So basically our character is a bright blue and pink tiefling named Aribis, he uses he/him pronouns, and occasionally they/them alongside he/him, and he grew up in a temple so he's been really sheltered from everything as a kid, and never really got that whole socializing with people thing down as a kid, it was just a bunch of stuffy adults so he didn't really get the chance. One day he was out in town, just doing some stuff, when a deer lady named Mylico (pronounced my-lih-ko) came up and asked if he wanted to go on a quest. Aribis said yes, and he joined the party to find an ancient lost city. One of the first few days he threatened another player character named Ace (he/him), and Ace threatened him back until they made a truce. Eventually, the party split up, and he and Ace got paired together to go down a different path and explore. The two met an evil old lady, who fed Aribis a poison cookie that knocked him out for a while. Ace defeated the old lady and carried Aribis back to the rest of the party. Aribis remained passed out for a while, if I remember right someone healed him?? And then Aribis was awake for about all of thirty minutes, since the cookie had more effects and knocked him out again. Dude kinda went into a coma for four days (We had left town and couldn't play, so they just knocked him out again with our permission.) , and during that coma the party found the lost city, and Ace is carrying Aribis the entire time, except the city wasn't actually lost. In the world this is in, elves aren't liked or trusted at all, and tieflings are very much the rich and extremely upper class. Aribis is not trusted in this city at all, and it would go into lockdown if everyone knew he was a tiefling. So, the rest of the party raided a scarecrow and stole its clothing, which included fancy boots (Aribis had boots, but they replaced them anyways for some reason??), a flannel, and a comically large hat. Ace provided some gardening gloves and boom! Disguise for a passed-out Aribis!! The party then plans to stage a revolution to help make everyone realize that elves are not horrible, and to take down the tiefling government. (Aribis is chill with this btw, he does not like most tieflings because they tend to be snobby and rude from wealth and such.) The party plans said revolution at an EXTREMELY fancy restaurant, and brings Aribis along for some reason. They order him a fruit salad, and kinda just slump him over into a chair, still disguised as a gardener-cowboy. (I joked that he faceplanted into the salad and nobody noticed) Other things that happened while he was passed out, in no particular order: the party caught an owl for the goddess of winter and gave her proposal advice to help her propose to her girlfriend (Ironic because our last DND character, Finley (they/them), attempted to catch a blood hawk in a backpack and failed, thus exposing that their backpack wasn't sentient, but instead had a very small octopus shaped god in it, and Aribis missed the opportunity to catch a bird.), had Christmas and new years (days are different in this world), Ace and another character, Hermes (he/him), made a bet with a god, Ace gambled against said god, and now Hermes has this god who owes him unlimited favors forever, and some other things I don't remember. The session that we had today included Aribis waking up after four days, still dressed up, and getting a run-down of all that happened, another threatening match between Ace and Aribis (Aribis threatened to both bite and cry at him), and bonding time over laser tag. Aribis also at some point acquired a pet rat named Pi-Rat in the woods. I probably forgot a lot of stuff since I am not the one who played the last few sessions, but that's all I know right now. :)

IT’s THEM. THE BETCH. Ikari of the rp dm’s story! or the rpd!universe i guess cause thats what ive been tagging that stuff as lmao. On the left is thier “god” form and on the right is thier usual appearance. I do think that they would normally have black hair, but i wanted to make a large distinction for how i was drawing them so :D
 this is mainly me trying to draw out an actual design for them so if it doesnt stick dont be surprosed but i am kinda satisfied with the results XD it was a bitch trying to look for actual quotes from the actual rp though, a lot of the situations they’re in dont exactly warrant some of these expressions. 
//spoilers for some rp lore events below! idk why this matters i dont think im ever making like an offical comic for what happens but eh
Comments on lore references of drawings: 
1; upper left: mentioned //and spoiled in another post that they would eventually be given the role of god.// the problem is when you’re forced into the role, in a world you consider not yours, unable to change it...and you now have to protect it. Because you live there now, and the people you care about live there now. 
2; uppser right: they’re actually decently stacked in money. where’d they get it from? ask them yourself. (they steal shit. a lot of shit.)
3; lower left:  Appearance of a god form can be anything they want, but often representative or defaults to personal preference. But to be honest while doodling there was this design i thought was HELLA cool but i deleted it //sob// so i incorparated part of it here,which is thier “wings” (better demonstarted in the upper left). they’re wearing a shimmering cape that “bends” to form wings. I wanted to make it more indicative that they’re...”holier” ? whatever, that they’re now god or something, so i decided to add the things around thier wrist but it also doubles as them seeing thier role partly as imprisionment. 
also, why the red eyes? i wanted something to make it pop out, and i wanted to make thier eyes a dark brown so it matched out. though, there is that whole background element of not exactly human so :D also, why are one of thier ears white in the god form? they’re not, actually. but i thought it would be too awkawrd to fill it all in as black, so i left it unfilled 
4: lower right: i came up with the idea of a revival book wayyy before that plot came out on the dsmp, so don’t string me up for that. But yea, i figured i’d try and put SOME kind of design on it. I’m thinking that within lore of the rp, it could probably be used more than just revivals, but the characters pretty much only ever use it to revive people  :p To describe what’s on the cover, it’s a snake eating itself with a chaos mark in the background. oh yea. also YAYY I FINALLY MADE CHARCTER THAT HAS LIKE. EARS THAT ARE KINDA BLENDED IN WITH THIER HAIR OMG FINALLYYY. im so happy. also they are like. built like a twig they have no muscle whatsoever somebody feed them :(
other things on my mind abt them because i feel like it: 
 -Admittedly for how appalled they are at other people’s actions, a lot of what they do can be calling the kettle black, but oftentimes they are right that many people tend to get off scot free while they alone are punished (often unfairly in thier eyes)
-they dont take many things seriously and tend to miss out on....the tone of the sitaution, but this is often caused by them losing intrest in a situation, wanting to stay away from a situation, or being caught up in thier own turmoil/thoughts to display empathy or sympathy for others (...often due to thier friends or them being indirect or VERY direct victims of whatever is going on. often, but not always.)
 -they enjoy making bar drinks and thinks being a bartender is cool. they have great difficulty memorizing recipies but they are trying thier best

Naja: 16
You’re so irritated, it’s been three days and you’re no closer to finding King Cobra. You do know where the rest of the gang is but you don’t really want them.
You want the head.
Things between you and Bucky are tense. You know he still doesn’t trust you, which while you can understand still sucks.
You’ve decided that tonight is it. You’re going to go after the other Snakes if you don’t find King Cobra today. This isn’t something that you share with Bucky, he keeps insisting on coming with you to help you but the missing posters are making it too hard. You can disappear in a crowd still, you’re small, unassuming, and have been wearing a wig when you go out. Bucky is big and handsome and harder to hide.
“Night.” He mumbles at midnight, you hum in response then give it another twenty minutes before you slip into the bedroom and quietly slip a handcuff onto his wrist. You slide the other side through the headboard before locking it around his other wrist and as you step away his eyes fly open.
“Tori?” He goes to sit up when the cuff pulls, “Tori? What is this? What’s going on? Get this off of me.”
“No.”
“No?”
“I’m going after them and I’m going to kill them. I don’t want you getting hurt.”
“This wasn’t the deal Tori!”
“It was for me, if I die an email will go out to Steve telling him exactly where you are so he can come get you. I’m sorry Bucky.” You tell him softly before pressing a kiss to his lips. “I could’ve loved you.” You whisper before gagging him with a clean bandana. He’s fighting you, trying to keep you from tying the bandana but you’re too quick.
He twists and locks his legs around you but after a brief struggle you manage to break away.
He tries to say something to you from behind the gag but his words are too garbled for you understand but his eyes are pleading.
You leave him behind. You don’t have a lot of time, the email to Steve is set to be sent at 9:00 am and you have four assassins to kill. It clicked on you just before he went to bed. The other four, Python, Anaconda, Cottonmouth and Boomslang, are all hanging out in the same area. Like they’re protecting someone in the center of their little square. You’re going to take them out one by one and before King Cobra even knows what’s happening you’re going to put a bullet between his eyes.
Boomslang is first. He’s always been a little sloppy but you almost suspect that he knows you’re coming when you find one of his windows wide open. It takes seconds for you to hoist yourself into the room and you creep into his apartment like a ghost. Boomslang is on the couch, tv on and soft snores passing his lips. You don’t hesitate, plunging the needle into the crook of his neck he wakes with a yell but it’s too late.
“You!” He slurs, you injected him there for a reason, nice and close to his heart.
“Me.” He lunges for you but stumbles, “you’re going to die Boomslang.”
“You. Bitch.”
“God you guys really need to get more creative with your insults. Don’t worry, you’ll be seeing the rest of the crew in hell.”
“You think you, won’t be there too?”
“Oh I’m sure I will. It just won’t be in the near future.” You tell him, “King Cobra fucked up, and by not leaving him to die you’ve sealed your fate.” You watch as his legs give out and he hits the ground. You take his phone then slip back out the window and into the night.
Next is Anaconda. You pick the lock and when you slip the door open a knife hits the doorframe next to your head.
“Thought you might be coming tonight. Haven’t heard from Boomslang in a couple hours, he was supposed to check in.”
“Good to know.” Another knife comes flying at you but you see this one coming and manage to dodge it. You pry both weapons from the door frame before dodging a third knife. This one catches you in the right arm, just grazing your skin. You throw one back at Anaconda who dodges the knife and comes at you. He tackles you, pinning you to the ground beneath him. Pulling yet another knife he goes to stab you, Anaconda always did like his blades, you’re able to block his knife with both your hands but he uses his other hand to punch you in the ribs. Your hold on his arm with the knife slackens in pain and he takes the opportunity to shove the knife down. You’re able to move your head and he drives it into the wood floor beneath you. You twist and manage to get your legs around his waist and before he can punch you again you twist and he hits the ground.
You manage to get him in a headlock but he still has a knife. He slices you across the arm and you grunt before breaking his neck. You let him fall to the ground breathing hard. You hurry to his bathroom and pull out the first aid kit. After using a couple of butterfly bandaids you wrap the cut in some gauze and disappear into the night.
You’ve got about six hours left when you get to Python’s safe house. It’s dark and quiet and you hoist yourself up and into the house. You move through the house like a ghost and you think you’re going to be in and out on this one but as you round the corner a bullet tears through your shoulder.
“Fuck!” You hiss and Python laughs lowly.
“Hello Naja.”
“Whats up?” You ask leaving against the doorframe.
“Oh yea know, just killing a traitor.” You huff then launch yourself at him. You knock him off balance, and he loses his grip on the gun. You scoop it up but before you can use it he throws you across the room, hitting the edge of the bed. He charges at you and you go for a low blow, literally, and kick him in the balls. You pick up the gun again and shoot him once in the head before going again for Python’s first aid kit. You have to stitch yourself up and it hurts like hell but you’ll do what you have to.
Five hours left.

I wonder if some of my asks have gotten eaten, too?? 🤔 I sent one a couple weeks ago but I figured u didn't have an answer for it yet, or it got lost in the tumblr void. It was a lot of rambling, but basically, I was wondering about your thoughts on the relationship b/w darius (the police guy) and artem? I was talking specifically about what u thought about them as a romantic ship, but I'm also curious about ur thoughts on them in general.
Also, completely different question: what's ur favorite thing about marluke??
Hope ur doing well!
- 🐍
hi, snake!!! :DDD
and oH GOSH YEAH. //smacks my hand to my face. I DID GET THAT ASK!!! i put it in my drafts for later because u mentioned in it the nxx polycule meeting mc's parents and i wanted to expand on that!! and then because i have the messiest brain in the world, i forgot. and i am so, so sorry about that!!!
but i can answer ur qs now, hehe!
irt darius/artem: IVE READ THE WHOLE SHIP TAG ON AO3 OF THEM ACTUALLY. AND GENUINELY, I LOVE IT.
in like almost every other ship, artem is the older one, but here darius has like a fuckin decade over him and ngl that tingles the (responsible) age difference relationship lover in me!!
they have a rlly interesting dynamic, be it romantic or platonic. because while artem is Stiff, darius is Stiff But Gruff. to me, it seems that artem is a rock. and darius is......a bigger rock and also if u touch it, u may get a gash. im making so much sense rn. also, i just love the bad boy/straight laced dynamic, which darius/artem also delivers on. this ship has got a LOT of good stuff hehehehe
so yea, i think theyre great!! i love reading fics of them, ship or not!! on the writing end tho, idt i'll ever write them romantically in my own fics/content because im just hugely fixated on the NXX Five.
however i do wanna write darius at some point. like outsider to the nxx pov style, wondering what the HELL is going on in that team. do they hate each other? or are they all in love? or are they all just fucking? and why are ALL of their emergency contacts EACH OTHER???
darius looks tired. i want to give him a reason for that exhaustion.
irt my fave thing about marius/luke: I CAN ONLY PICK ONE???? oh god......
okay im gonna give you three but also keep in mind that my brain feels like fruits in a blender and then chucked into a microwave
theyre funny together!! when i write them, their banter with each other just flows out so naturally. these guys are comedy central.
i kin luke pearce and marius von hagen is my type. sue me.
okay heres a smart one that really matters to me: together, theyd push the other to points where something has to change. marius and luke both are stubborn as fuck. when they believe in something, they dont back down. they get up into somebodys face and, if they want to, will force that person into action. and that action can be for better or for worse (i just like writing the stories where it's for the better bc i cant stand bad endings huhu) but my point is here is like. when youve got two characters like these guys, the story moves forward. they quite literally push the narrative into action because of their personalities and values.
again, huge apologies for forgetting about your ask. ive been doing okay and i hope you are doing good as well :')

Tumblr media
summary: on an evening out with friends, you reflect on your time with those you met at Nekoma High some years ago.
pairing: kenma x reader
word count: 1.4k
tw: none
tags: fluff, mentions of a bar, exactly (1) reference to a drunk kuroo
notes: AHHH MY FIRST FIC ON THIS BLOG!! i really wanted it to be kenma because, well, he is baby and i will forever be in love with this pudding head. the dialogue is fairly short so this is mostly me just spitting fluff between reader and kenma but regardless, i hope you all enjoy and i ALWAYS appreciate feedback. seriously, it means the world to hear back from you guys!! and big thank you to @sanemisthiccbih and @msbyslut for proofreading, i really appreciate you two! ❥
Tumblr media
Your time at Nekoma High was arguably one of the most influential in your life. The memories laid fresh in your mind as if they had only occurred yesterday; the laughs at the lunch table as Kuroo made Lev spew milk through his nose at some shitty science joke, the few times Yaku had to tug on your hair in the classroom just to see you smile after receiving a poor, yet very undeserved, grade, even the time Yamamoto tried asking  you out in the middle of the bustling hallway, tripping over not only his words but his shoe laces as well… you could still picture the way his cheeks burned bright pink as he promptly removed himself from your chest (which was conveniently his landing spot) and frantically apologized.
However, the moments you were most fond of were the ones spent with someone you had never expected to become so attached to: Kenma Kozume. 
Truthfully you never noticed the boy until the second term of your first year, completely unaware of his apparent presence throughout the first. Once you met him, though, you realized how he managed to fly below below your radar. He was so quiet you could hardly hear the way he muttered his own name when you requested it, prompting you to ask him if he could repeat it and bringing a soft blush to his face. Something in that moment told you Kenma would become an important part of your life. It could’ve been the way your heart fluttered when he smiled softly, saying something along the lines of “No one really asks me again…”, or perhaps it was the way his eyes bore into your soul like gentle pools of amber, seeping through every crack surrounding the most vulnerable parts of yourself. 
Whatever it was…to this day, you made sure to thank your lucky stars for that encounter, else you might not be where you are now.
“Oi! Y/N, quit gawking at Kenma and laugh at my jokes! You already get to go home with him!” Kuroo’s strong (inebriated) voice rang in your ears, effectively tearing you from your reminiscence. You notice Kenma eyeing you suspiciously once you finally register that you have, in fact, been staring at your boyfriend for God knows how long. Heat rushed to your cheeks and you smiled sheepishly before biting back at your rooster headed friend,
“Well, maybe if your jokes were funny I would laugh, dumbass!”
Your remark received a wave of ‘oooh’s from the group of old friends surrounding the booth you all somehow managed to squeeze yourselves into, and Kuroo’s now red face sports his signature cat-like smirk while the look in his eyes tells you ‘oh, I’ll get you for that one’. You couldn’t help but giggle as Lev smacked him on the back in a fit of laughter; the lanky blonde really hasn’t changed since high school, even after becoming a model. 
None of your friends have, really. They were all the same stupid, headstrong trouble makers they were back then, the only difference now was the fact you all had jobs, careers even. In fact as you all sit there, in that dinky little bar on the far side of Tokyo, sharing drinks and stories from ‘the good ol’ days’ (as Yaku affectionately puts it), it’s hard staying in touch with your current reality. Everything just feels so… familiar. Maybe that’s why you were feeling so sentimental tonight.
You feel a hand slip under the booth and grip your thigh, right above the knee as the thumb traces the tear in your jeans, pulling you back in before you slip away again. The action makes you turn your head slightly to see a (rare) playful Kenma also painted in a slight pink hue, a grin tugging at the corners of his lips as a quiet chuckle slips through. 
“Got ‘im good, babe.” 
The praise makes your heart soar and a giggle surface from your upturned lips. You love seeing this side of Kenma, as he never really improved his social battery very much over the years. Such a problem is very easy for him to feed into with his gaming career, and no matter how many times you try to drag him away from his desktop, he always manages to crawl back into his shell right before you can shut it indefinitely. But nights like these are important to you two (whether he admits it or not), so you both always make a point to attend. 
And you swear you can see that shell crack, pieces breaking away ever so often, with every crinkle of his nose or roll of his eyes, his shy smile never faltering. 
“You ready to get out of here?” Kenma speaks again with a slight squeeze to your knee, but the way he reaches into his pocket already in search of keys lets you know the question was more of a statement. That social battery must finally be running out; but you can’t complain, peace and quiet with Kenma sounds like a dream right now. 
“Yea… let’s go home.”
The way you said ‘home’ in such a soft, endearing tone made Kenma’s heart flutter in his chest and a swell of emotion sent every nerve in his body crackling against his skin. He usually handled this feeling well enough around you but, much like how you’ve been feeling, the sentiment in the air felt thick and put a haze over his usually level-headed mind. As a result, everything he felt seemed to increase tenfold. This did nothing but widen his smile toward you and soften the look in his eye as he grabs your hand, mutters his goodbyes to the rest of the crowd, and waits patiently for you at the end of the booth while you follow suit (not without rebutting Kuroo’s objections, of course). 
Kenma had an arm outstretched behind him to hold your hand as he maneuvered you through the room, carefully leading you to the exit and huddling close as soon as you made out into the lamp-lit street. The air was much cooler than when you had first met up with your friends, and the twilight  sky was proof of just how much time had passed. A crisp breeze sent a chill down your spine and you went to assume your usual position of looping your arm through your boyfriend’s while he walked with his hands in his pockets, yet, when you reach for the tucked limb it snakes its way around your frame and wraps firmly across your lower back. 
Kenma must’ve seen the surprise in your wide eyed expression because his brow perks in question as your content smile shifts into a bright grin. 
“What?”
“Oh, nothing… you’re just exceptionally soft tonight.”
You didn’t see so much as feel the eye roll in response to your remark, your eyes focused on the path to your parked car some blocks away. You only huddled closer to Kenma to emphasize.
“I really like seeing you out and about, especially with the group,” your nose scrunches as you pull the collar of your coat closer to your face, shielding your neck from the cold as you walk, “I know it’s not easy for you sometimes but… you always have that look in your eye, the one you had when you played volleyball with them.”
Kenma’s silent for a moment while he processes your words, trying to suppress the way they instantly made the corner of his lips perk up. He secretly enjoyed the way you cared so much about his social life. He recalled multiple conversations where you reminded him “discord calls and lobby chats don’t count as socializing”, and of course, you were right. He found himself wanting to see his old friends more often than not. He’s never been good at expressing it but somehow you just knew… and while he might groan or whine about finishing ‘one more game’ before leaving the house, he loved what you were doing for him. 
“Thanks, Y/N… I had fun.”
The way your eyes lit up after that rare statement put the stars above to shame, Kenma thinks, and he can’t help but lean forward slightly to press a kiss to your temple. It was a small gesture, but… you could feel the love through the gentle press of his lips, and the way your infectious smile was finally breaking through to him against your crown. 
“Yea, yea… let’s get you home before Kuroo finds out you’re being so sweet.”

Mantis blades and Gorrila fist pt 5
~~~~~~
Woah chapter five I'm quite happy with myself
I hope you all enjoy and I can't wait to make more
~~~~~~~
V woke up a little after 9am still wrapped up in the sheets of his bed while laying onto of Oda. The Arasaka guard was running his fingers thought Vexrins messy and tangled blue and red hair humming lightly.
Vex moves a little to meet the Pale grey eyes "Good morning" Oda lent down and places a soft kiss on Vs lips, a soft dreamy look on his face as he lays back down.
They layed in silence for a good five minutes before Oda groaned about having to get up and get ready for work.
"Vexrin your gonna have to move I need to get ready for work" V grumbs before rolling over onto the bed and pulled the sheets up aroudn his chin as he watches Oda move around the apartment picking up his uniform along with he boots.
This time he doesn't retreat to the safety of the bathroom to get changed. Vex watches him strip and gets a good look at the cybernetics on his throat.
They run out lightly onto his shoulders and down his back a little. And that's when he sees the beautiful work of art on Oda's back.
Its a white tiger with bright blue eyes surrounded by tiger lillies "I dont know you had a tattoo!" Oda looks over his shoulder to where V was laying.
"I got it very shortly after I began working for Hanako-sama. Takemura-san also have a tattoo down his back. It is something that means alot too me. Both Takemura and I got them right after I was assigned to Hanako. His is a fox and Wolf with cherry blossoms and Iris. He said flowers have meaning to them and the ones you pick define you for who you are. What of you Vexrin do you have flowers that have meaning to you?" Oda begins pulling his uniform pants up and buckling them.
As V gets up off the bed he part of his pants down to show a small ring of flowers on the side of his him. "Violets and For get me not?" Oda asked looking at the tattoo of the small blue and purple, red and yellow flowers.
"Forget me nots had a big meaning to me when I was younger while violets I loved becuase my little brother and used to have a small garden filled with both of them, some times we would make tea with the Violets" V explains as he moves behind Oda to run his hands over the Tiger on his back.
"It's beautiful craftsman ship, I used to want to follow my dad's footsteps and me a tattoo artist but then it became easier for people to get tattoos" Vexrin smiled lightly tracing the lines down Oda's back. Oda turns around to face V. "Your father was a tattoo artist?" Vex let's out a small chuckle as he inspected the detail in Oda's Ink. "Yea he was, he was really good at it two, Indian I got to learn more about it"
Both pale grey and black and white meet again. "I've seen you have another tattoo on your chest it's a snake of a sort?" Oda asked as he pulls his shirt on and begins to button it up.
Vexrin pulls his shirt off to show the tattoo of a colourful snake that wraps around part of his body with a small heart tattooed on his chest.
"Ngalyod or the Rainbow serpent, Im orignally from Austraila. my nanna would tell stories about my ancestry that she was told when she was young. We used to have her tell them to us as bed time stories. But the rainbow serpent was one which I always loved to hear about, learning about part of my culture that we didn't really learn about when my mother and father past. But both poppy and nanna told up a all the stories"
Vexrin smiles lightly remembering all the good times from his childhood from running aroudn on the small farm he lives on got he dream time stories that his family would tell so that they would not forget who and were he came from.
Oda had finished pulling his uniform on and enjoyed the recountings of V's family and story. "Your family where are they now?" He asked.
Taking a seat to do his shoes. "My little brother Dustin moved to Night city with me when I was given the chance of a corpate job, he is going to school at one of the higher education schools. While my nanna passed away 5 years ago my poppyis still living out on his small farm in Queensland I send him money when I can so he can keep the farm going.
He didn't want me to work for the big cooperations, said he feel it in his bones that something would go wrong. I guess he was right" Oda can feel The sad smile of V's face he pulls him in for a hug placing his chin on Vex's head.
"I apologise for asking, I did not wish to bring bad memories" V let's out a small laugh before moving slightly. "Can I kiss you?" He asks very lightly and if Oda didn't have his enhancements he most likely wouldn't have heard him.
Oda leans down and places a quick kiss on V's lips. He pulls away picking up a bag with the rest of his gear in it. "I have to head to work now but am aloud to come back later tonight?" He asked hoping that this wasn't a one time thing.
V pulls him back into a kiss this one was sweet and quick and V let out a soft laugh again. "You are welcome over anytime" he gives Oda a quickpeek on the forehead before pushing him to the door.
" Now go to work or you are gonna be late!"
V watches as Oda leave his apartment before finally heading back inside, he moves around getting ready for the day when he get a call for Misty.
"Hey V I was just checking in on you again I know it's been a few weeks, I did a reading for you, I did a past, present and future spread and well you got the Tower reversed, death upright and the Lovers upright. So its very different" v stood there for a while trying to recall the meanign for the card.
" I remember death upright is something to do with change and transformation but I do remember the other too, I swear the death cards my friend at this point " misty has a light laugh before she continues.
" tower reversed can mean  Personal transformation, fear of change, averting disaster. All decks are different so they could have different meanings. Death upright is Endings, change, transformation, transition and as you have said your familiar with this card and the Lovers upright is love, harmony, relationships, alignment, choices so it's very different from. What you normally have. So my question is there someone you are seeing?" Misty asked making Vex blush.
"Maybe.. well I don't know what it is but like yes. No? I don't have a clue.. ok he's coming over tonight" misty is laughing on the other end of the call.
"Well how about you come stop by the shop which I close up for the day and we go out for the day!" V smiled at the suggestion. " that be awesome Misty I'll meet you at the shop" with that there call ended and Vex got read to leave as he does he decided to shoot Goro a message.
Vex: hey, hey Goro, was wondering if you could forward me Sandayu's contact, Please and thank you!
Takemura: I must ask Why Vex, had Oda been a bother again?
Vex: hahaha no but we have started talking and I i forgot to ask him for his holo, he's been sparing with me a little But we aren't at each other's throats anymore.
Goro: that is good to hear :), I will forward his contact to you shortly,
Once Oda had left Vexrins he had arrived at work with 30 minutes to spare. As he walked into the Estate he gave a quick bow to the other guard as he made his way tough being checked.
He gets a notification the only people who would be messaging him would be Hanako, Goro and his parents. So when an unknown number pops up he is hesitant but decided by her to get it out to the way.
.....: Hey Oda it's me Vex, just letting you know that spare keys are in the broken light on the door"
He lets out a small chuckle before sending but a message
Sandayu: thank you Vexrin.
He quickly sets V's contact up.
Name: Vex-kun
Number: ////////////
He has a bit of a laugh to himself about it but in the end leave it.
After that most of the day had been staying within the room which Hanako was or following her where ever she needed to be.
As the day slowly turned to night they had arrived back at Hanako's estate, Oda was watching the time almost like a hawk at this point and it didn't go un noticed.
He still has alteast half an hour until his shift ends, he had never feel that time going so slow until now.
"Oda?" He turns to Hanako again she had a light smile on her face as she calls him to take a seat. He walks over and sits down.
"Will you be staying and watch old movies tonight, you seem like you want to be anywhere but here" he lets out a sigh. "Forgive me Hanako-sama, that is not my intention, just excited and nerves" that peaks Hanako's interest. He can seem the small smile as she bring her glass to her lips. 
"And what could have you so distracted, should I say who?" They share a small laugh and it goes quite again. "A man, I... I trust you Hanako-sama and.. fuck it's V" he closes his eyes and a blush can be seen across his cheeks. Hanako let's out a laugh before placing her hands on his shoulders.
"If he makes you happy then I have no problem with it, if he hurts you not even Takemura will save him" the next half an hour was Hanako asking question and Oda answering them.
When his shift was over Hanako waved he out with a smile.

‘ They aren't a demon slayer but still travel with Zenitsu even though it's dangerous and Tanjirou has told them that but they don't listen, and since Zenitsu is scared all the time why not a situation with a demon where the reader is terrified and he realizes he has to be serious and help/protect them ‘ - @katthestupidwizard​
Zenitsu? Being Badass? Only when he’s asleep but thank you for requesting Iza!! Since you refered to the reader as they/them I made it a gender neutral! reader
Tumblr media
Protect You
Pairing: Zenitsu x GN! Reader
Unedited
Word count: 1539
" (Y/NNNNNNN)!! "
Suddenly a body pressed itself against you and you felt arms wrap around your body, almost knocking you over from the unexpected weight. You clenched your weapon in your hands, trembling in fear at the demon in front of you. " Zenitsu! Please let me go! You need to kill that demon! " You tried to shake him off of you, but he tightened his hold on you.
He shook his head, " NO! CANT YOU SEE I CANT KILL THAT THING?! IM NOT STRONG ENOUGH! “
Tanjiro sighed, pulling out his black nichirin blade. This was a low level demon, Tanjiro could tell. The demon hasn't eaten many humans and is relying on on its poor agility to avoid the slayer's attacks. One more strike... Tanjiro ran towards the demon, gripping his sword tightly in his right hand. " Breath of Water first form, Water Surface Slash! "
He quickly swung at the demon, not giving him a chance to dodge. The demon's head flew over Tanjiro, heading straight for you. You shrieked and ducked as the disintegrating head barely missed you, hitting Zenitsu straight in the face. He let go of you and backed away, " AHHHHHH! GET IT OFF GET IT OFF! "
You sighed as Zenitsu fell to the floor while holding his face and screaming. Tanjiro placed a hand on your shoulder, " Are you alright (Y/n)? "
You nodded, " Yea, thanks for asking- "
" HEY! GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY (Y/N)! " Zenitsu jumped up and snatched you into his arms, away from Tanjiro, " YOU WONT TAKE THEM AWAY FROM ME! "
Tanjiro held his hands up in defense, " I wasn't trying to, Zenitsu.. "
He huffed and pulled you closer to him, glaring at Tanjiro for placing his hand on you. You patted his back at a rapid pace, " C-Can't breathe!- "
" Huh? " Zenitsu looked down at you before loosening his grip on you, " (Y/n)! Don't leave me for Tanjiro! "
You let out a nervous laugh, " Don't worry, I won't.. "
Zenitsu separated himself from you when Tanjiro's crow began to yell out directions to their next mission. Apparently a town a few minutes south from your current location has a situation with a wild bear. At night it sneaks into people's houses and devours its victims, leaving nothing behind but a bloody mess. You shivered hearing the description of the mission.
You have nothing to defend yourself but a hardwood stick. You would've become a demon slayer just like your friends, but you aren't able to use any breath styles. Usually, when Zenitsu was crying about how he can't defeat a demon, Tanjiro would step in and save you. He often questioned why you tagged along but you would always respond with the same thing.
" Zenitsu protected me once and for that, I owe him my life. "
Of course when you told Zenitsu this he thought you meant you'd marry him- to which you quickly said no. But you did agree to follow him along his journey and help him in anyway you could.
The three of you begin to walk towards the town and you arrive just as the sun is setting. " I think it would be best if we don't walk too far from one another since we don't know the layout of the town yet. " Tanjiro suggested and you nodded in agreement.
" I think I'm going to take a look over there. " You pointed towards a house that was near a patch of trees.
" Alright, I think I'll takeWas at the house that was recently attacked since it's only a couple of blocks away. Please be safe, ok (Y/n)? " Tanjiro glanced at you worriedly and you gave him a thumbs up, " I will! "
" HUH?! What about me?! You guys can't leave me here alone! " Zenitsu cried out.
" You should search for the demon too Zenitsu. Maybe you'll find him? " You looked back at Zenitsu to see that he was already panicking.
You sigh, " Fine, you can come with me."
Grabbing Zenitsu's wrist you gently pull him towards your destination, him sniffling the whole way. Once you arrive at the house you notice that the doors are wide open. Taking a peak inside you see that the house is empty, the few furniture pieces that remain inside seemed to have been scratched and tainted with blood. You took a step inside, noticing a certain area on the wooden floor that seemed to be stained worse than the rest of the area." Ah, I guess this was one of the houses that- "
" AHHHH! We need to get out of here! T-This was the house that was!- "
You jumped over and placed your hands over his mouth, instantly shutting him up. " Shh! What if the demon is nearby? " you whispered, " we need to stay ca- "
" Ahhh, I smell dinner~ "
You and Zenitsu immediately freeze at the sound of the unfamiliar voice. It was so smooth yet it carried a sharp edge to it at the same time. A hand could be seen gripping onto the edge of the window and slowly a body perched itself on the ledge.
" Oh? Two full course meals? This must be my special day!~ " The demon stuck his thin tongue out that was split in the middle.
The demon's sclera were a light green while the pupils were sharp and thin, like a snake's eyes. His pale skin stood out from the dark green raggedy clothing he wore. He smirked once he noticed the two of you tremble with fear. He stuck his tongue out again, practically smelling the fear the two of you emanated.
He hopped down from the window ledge and onto the wood floor with a small thud. You clutched onto Zenitsu's yellow and orange gradient haori in fear, " Z-Zenitsu... " you muttered out softly, tears beginning to gather at the corner of your eyes.
You felt him wrap his arms around your body tightly before he went limp. Looking up you see his head tilted back, his eyes are closed and you could practically see his soul leave his body. You gulp, " Z-Zenitsu... Zenitsu! " you cried in a shaky voice, " don't do this to me Zenitsu! Not now! "
You shake his body, trying to get him to come back to consciousness. " Oh no, seems that my dinner was too frightened by my presence... No matter, you'll make an excellent appetizer.~ " he smirked and began walking over to you.
Grabbing your stick you take a defensive stance in front of Zenitsu. He saved you once, so maybe today was the day you'd repay him for his kindness. The demon stopped in his tracks and began cackling, " You think you can actually defeat me? A lowly human such as yourself? " He held his hand up and diagonally sliced the air.
You held your stick in front of you, bracing for his attack but nothing came. Suddenly, your stick snapped in half. The cut was clean and straight down the middle. You slowly backed away in fear, tripping over Zenitsu's leg. No... you gripped the two pieces of wood in your hands, I have to protect Zenitsu!
You quickly stand, noticing the demon was preparing for another attack. Just as the demon sends another attack towards you a flash of yellow blocks your vision. You look behind you and see that Zenitsu was no longer on the floor, but instead now he was right in front of you. Even though his back was facing you you could tell something was different about him. He seemed less, afraid. His hand reached over to draw his nichirin blade from its scabbard. " Thunder Breathing, first form.. "
He rushed towards the demon, who took a step back from the sudden attack. " Thunderclap and Flash! " he brought out his sword and in an instant the demon's head was rolling on the floor.
Zenitsu places his sword back and opened his eyes. He looked around the room, seeing you tremble in the corner out of fear and the decapitated demon. He let out a scream and jumped away from the demon's head. Seeing Zenitsu revert back to his original self made even more tears swell up in your eyes. You stood up and ran to him, embracing him in a tight hug. He stumbled back, not expecting your embrace. " Zenitsu! " you cried and hugged him even tighter, " you did it! Thank you! "
Slowly you two fell to the floor. He had no idea what were talking about but hugged you back, enjoying your warm embrace. You continued to to cry in his arms, apologizing for not being able to protect him properly. All he could do was awkwardly rub circles on your back in a soothing manner. After a few minutes you let go of him and rubbed your eyes, " I'm sorry, I guess I owe you double now, huh? "
He blinked repeatedly after hearing your question. Zenitsu eagerly grabbed your hands and brought them to his chest, " Please marry me! "
" Huh?! "
You weren't expecting him to ask you again after you had turned him down so many times. Over the course of your journey though, you had grown to like the blonde crybaby. Looking him in the eye you gave him a smile, " Alright, I'll marry you. "

you can tell a lot about someone by the type of music they listen to 🎵🎶
rules: hit shuffle on your media player and write down the first 20 songs, then tag 10 people. no skipping!
Thank you for tagging me! @i-like-5sos
1. Long Way Home - 5SOS: Oh! I haven’t heard this song in awhile. This is one of my favorites from self titled (although I will always prefer the acoustic version) I still remember when they changed the lyrics to “white snake on the radio” during my ROWYSO show. My favorite lyric is “so we’re taking the long way home cause I don’t wanna be wasting my time alone”
2. Bloody Mary - Lady Gaga: I remember the first time I heard this being 11 years old and shocked LMAO if I’m being real honest I love the beat (AND THE BASS) of this song. ALSO the chorus “I WONT CRY FOR YOU” is so GOOD
3. Not Warriors - Waterparks: y’all are in for a TREAT THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE WATERPARKS SONGS. I cannot just listen to this song just once. It’s always at least 3 times and it’s ALWAYS blasting (and yes I did replay it 3 times and blast it through my headphones while typing this) When the beat drops and “THERES NOTHING IN MY SYSTEM SO IM FEELING WHAT I FEEL FOR YOU” so POWERFUL!!!! My favorite lyric is “but hey for what it’s worth I think you saved my life”
4. Best Song Ever - One Direction: I still refuse to believe this song is about sex LMAO this is such a fun song to dance to though I love it. My favorite part is Niall’s solo “I said can I take you home with me, she said never in your wildest dreams”
5. Strong - One Direction: OH! FUCK! MY FAVORITE ONE DIRECTION SONG DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH THE CHORUS “IM SORRY IF I SAY I NEED YOU” I CANT I CANT. If you have not heard them acapella sing this do me a favor and go listen ITS SO GOOD ALSO! Zayn’s high note. My favorite lyric is ofc Louis’ solo “think of how much love that’s been wasted people always trying to escape it move on to stop their heart breaking but there’s nothing I’m running from, you make me strong”
6. Kids In The Dark - All Time Low: YES I LOVE THIS SONG I LOVE THIS ALBUM I LOVE THE MEANING OF THE SONG I’m not joking when I say that I found this song and this band during the hardest time in my life and this song just really hit me hard. My favorite lyric is “beautiful scars on critical veins” AND the firework pop towards the end!!!!
7. Olivia - One Direction: I will admit this song has grown on me big time post hiatus (also the fact that now I’m not hiding my sexuality from myself I can freely listen to this song without feeling ashamed) I! Love! This! Song! It’s such a cute love song!! My favorite lyric is “the summertime butterflies all belong to your creation”
8. I Love You 5 - Never Shout Never: another band I was obsessed with back in 2015 I haven’t listened to this song in awhile!! I remember loving this song though and using it everywhere. I also like in the beginning he says “I love you one a two a three shoobe-doo I love you four that’s more than I can afford”
9. Only Angel - Harry Styles: idk not much to say about this Harry song it’s not in my top 5 but it’s a good song! I like listening to it but it’s just not my favorite. My favorite lyric is “open up your eyes shut your mouth and see that I’m still the only one who’s been in love with me”
10. Viva La Vida - Coldplay: no one: - me: AHHHHHHHHH literally this song will never be the same ever since 1d performed it on xfactor. Idk what to say about this song other than the fact that I like it??? I also like 1D’s cover of it??? Yea cool. My favorite lyric is “Never an honest word but that was when I ruled the world”
11. Glitter & Crimson - All Time Low: this song has definitely grown on me since the release of wake up sunshine. ALSO THE BRIDGE! My favorite lyric is “lets start lets start a riot hard to sit still when your head’s on fire”
12. (Love Will) Turn Back The Hands Of Time - Grease 2: don’t clown me y’all but this movie and soundtrack are a guilty pleasure. I love the original grease BUT grease 2!! It’s such a stupid movie but the soundtrack is fantastic. Anyways this song is another guilty pleasure LMAO I love the whole song so I’m not picking a “favorite lyric”
13. Savior - Rise Against: OH!!!! OH!!! THIS SONG RIGHT HERE!!!! fun fact: the first time I actually heard this song was when I watched a video of someone on YouTube burning her littlest pet shops because a trade went wrong and she got scammed so she took her anger out on that. I literally forgot about this song until one day I heard it in my junior year literature class and had major deja vu. Okay anyways I love this song LMAO my favorite part is the chorus “that’s when she said I don’t hate you boy I just want to save you while there’s still something left to save. That’s when I told her I love you girl but I’m not the answer for the questions that you still have WOAH OH OH WOAH OH OHHH”
14. National Anthem - DE’WAYNE: okay THIS SONG it’s so good and it describes what it’s like growing up in America as a POC. I don’t wanna say too much about it since I’m not a POC so I know I will never fully understand the song because of my privilege but I appreciate the fuck out of this. I love the entire song I don’t have a favorite lyric
15. Your Love - Nicki Minaj: I miss this Nicki Minaj. UM not much to say about this song either??? It’s a good song and I like it?! My favorite part is the chorus OH and the outro I love it
16. Just Dance - Lady Gaga: another pop classic from my childhood alright I MEAN ITS JUST DANCE?! HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE THIS SONG??? ALSO THIS LADY GAGA?! Don’t get me wrong I love the lady Gaga we have now BUT THIS ONE WILL ALWAYS BE ASSOCIATED WITH MY CHILDHOOD AND PRETEEN YEARS. I remember feeling like a badass singing this song when I was 10 years old LMAO I don’t have a favorite lyric I love the whole thing it’s a bop
17. Dear Patience - Niall Horan: Oh!! One of my favorites from Heartbreak Weather. His voice in this song is just so beautiful ugh yes. I absolutely love the chorus of this. My favorite lyric is “feels like you don’t even know me just me and the stars can get lonely”
18. San Francisco - 5sos: OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS SONG ITS IN MY TOP 3 FROM SOUNDS GOOD FEELS GOOD. I hardly see anyone appreciate this song so I’m here to tell y’all: ITS A GOOD SONG?!?! have y’all listened to the live version AS WELL!!!! masterpiece. This song makes me happy especially the guitar at the beginning. My favorite lyric is “reminds me of when we were free I swear that it’s still haunting me” BUT! I do love that pre-chorus
19. They All Float - Waterparks: NICE a song from their first EP okay but I love this song it’s much heavier compared to what they sing now and that’s what I like about it. My favorite part is THE BRIDGE!!! “this is the part where you cut your losses this is the part where you get a job this is the part where you settle for less just like you never wanted to”
20. We made it finally Adrenaline - Simple Creatures: OH MY GOD THIS SONG LISTEN this is the first song I listened to from this band (which btw if y’all didn’t know is made up of Alex Gaskarth from ATL and Mark Hoppus from Blink-182) I mean while it’s more pop (which is what their intention is) ITS STILL A GOOD BAND!!! ESPECIALLY THIS SONG!! ITS SO GOOD DAMN I love the music video omfg. I’m just a sucker for dance choreography since I grew up surrounded by dance (I did competitive dance for a couple of years and my sister was a competitive dancer until she graduated) okay enough about me this song is so damn good I can’t stop saying that alright! My favorite lyric “I think we’re failin to connect you don’t what you do to me do to me do to me” and I LOVE THE CHORUS
This was fun!!! And it took me forever LMAO I’m not tagging 10 people but I’ll tag some

feels a little early to be writing a year-in review but i find myself in a quiet moment so i thought i’d tap a few things out
Tumblr media
in 2019, in all facets of my life, i faced a challenge of some sort and i surprised myself as i held my ground more often than ran away, which felt new. what *also* felt new was this sense of ease i began having professionally, when it came to conceptualizing and making decisions. sorta feels like a lot of things are crystallizing.
in terms of life on here, i didn’t have TSL for the majority of the year (anybody out there remember TSL?!) so i busied myself with crafting fun memories on my own. there were spans of weeks where i’d just get on a tear and run into one new thing after the other and it was all really just fantastic. i gave myself permission to indulge in the most decadent of things and to follow the most mercurial of assumptions to places i thought closed off.
i’m pretty sure i’ve smiled and laughed more over this year than i ever have in my entire life. no joke.
here are some kaylorverse moments that brought me joy in 2019:
it’s nice to have a friend
2018 was my first year being a kaylor and i just sort of was moreover on the contributor or commenter side of things so 2019 was interesting in that when taylor really leaned into the gay imagery leading up to album release, i started getting newer people sending me stuff! and asking me my takes on things! and like, my words suddenly had weight for some reason? it felt weird but i truly enjoyed getting to talk with so many different people and hear their ideas and laugh and such. that was markedly different from last year. from within this, 79-swift reached out to me with the eye theory, the most beautiful and rare of observations by a singularly lovely individual that i have dedicated my life to protecting and promoting. and i feel like i’ve gotten to know many people i knew through 2018 more deeply and have come to accept the role i play, lean in to it, and formulate my own truth of the matter, and that sort of heightened perspective on it has been a blessing and i’m so thankful for this strange sense of camaraderie that has formed with many of you? thank you??? and my conviction, and my wishes, for the girls to find happiness have only strengthened this year... im committed to seeing this through whether people like it or not!! harumph!
block ‘em
i also started proactively curating my experience.. that’s right! i began blocking trolls with reckless abandon, and i turned anons off! 😂 and damn it’s so much more worthwhile of a time on here when you set aside people that only want to ruin your day.
i got over my fear of eyeballs!!
😂 no seriously, body horror and in particular eyes out of context was actually sort of a thing that previously creeped me out BUT LOOK AT ME NOW. i’m gonna do my best not to rehash the eye theory, please read the post and recall the number of times i filipped out 😂 each and every one is precious to me
also
geeking out with bert and ernie gifs with kaylorfossil and making empsmd-blog drop her debit card need a mention.
the ME! music playlist.
i fell in love with so many songs and like, running into eye motifs in so many of the songs, lyrically and visually, was the most hilarious thing. but really just a lot of the songs really tapped at my soul with an ice pick and i even went to go see The Japanese House live in Osaka which was transcendental and i’m just so thankful for having taylor introduce Good At Falling to me because it was a *necessary* album.
i made and collected stuff
i made and amassed many artifacts that one day i can look back on and remember what a wild ride it has been. some favorites are my procuring of the pixel art heart ring from the ME! mv (a nod to my tsl days..), as well as the evil eye ring.. i didn’t physically make this but the eye theory made the taydar podcast and there’s nothing i enjoy more in this world than making someone giggle and i just love that the episode exists. making that kaylor straw was 👌 working on a mock-up of the golden locket has been very satisfying. i started incorporating fun kaylor winks into my artwork as well which was fun, and i also commissioned a collage from the very talented and lovely valheria and i couldn’t have asked for anything better 🥰
wildin in the TS7 tag was the best.
i made this observation that there’s this type of cocoon that looks like a cobra, which transforms into a butterfly over a period of 13 days, and like, the post got so many notes and i just had a lot of swiftie eyeballs all of a sudden on my blog which led to some hilarity. but honestly i just love geeking out over theories and it’s fun to get to do that as fans of taylor at large. things felt warm and effervescent.
my newspaper subscription
i subscribe to the TTB Times and let me just say the submissions and anons this year were overwhelmingly a delight to read through every day. also like, we did get cued in to stuff before album release and i am just thankful that there are people out there both who want to give us that and people who work to help them give us that. thank you ttb for moderating your blog (my newspaper of choice) however it is that you do and to everyone that contributed to her blog.
the whole lead up to the ME! video release
so glorious... but particular the hour before. i was rushing to pick up my kid from school and suddenly i kept getting messages from people that taylor was covering her face and framing her eyes, and i was like oh please yeah sure BUT THEN when the snake in the video had a blank eye like i don’t think you guys understand i had to wait at a bus stop and exchange pleasantries with the other moms but it was a *five alarm fire* in my mind
cause shade never made anybody less gay
stealing away to listen to YNTCD for the first time and hearing Taylor Alison Swift use the word gay in a released song for the first time was a transcendental moment
karlie’s hand in the YNTCD mv.
‘nuff said
daisies. daisies everywhere.
taylor said daisy kaylor rights, and she said it everywhere. *everywhere*. cannot, will not, get over how blessed we are.
gay gay gay gay gay.... taylor’s
sorry not sorry that wiz khalifa collab with elohim on her track FYM was ethereal and i still hope it’s a part of the preshow playlist for Lover Fest
clue hunting in klossy videos and karlie ads
call me a corporate shill all you want like, there’s always a little something in there and i also enjoy the little flickers of goofy karlie that jump out from time to time. and i know this is not the case for everyone but post eyepocalypse, karlie leaning in, winking that eye of hers time and time again was just pique comedy for me and it always made me chuckle. the brands karlie has repped have been really laying it on thick too and it’s been a joy to see. when taylor does it with her music it’s art, and for me karlie’s media presence is a form of art too 😌
oh kaptain my kaptain
kimby liked a comment of mine on her insta which was a distinct honor and privilege 😌 and really she was dropping clues left and right through spring up until she got her snazzy new job and things calmed down 🥰 of which i am so proud talk about an on brand job! also partially clearing the air about my TSL theory and the lead up to clearing that air was quite fulfilling for me and i am forever grateful for the time we shared. and to this point, the seesters in general (and kurt omg) have been quite active all year and we don’t deserve it but they’ve stuck around and it’s been calming.
album cover art release on the livestream
LIKE I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE NEVER HAD A FOURTH WALL BROKEN SO DULY
i love you forever, thank you for everything
when taylor came to visit tokyo this year i was basically reenacting the swamp scene from OOTW trying to get a ticket to the secret event... i listened to ME! on LINE MUSIC for over 2000 plays, i bought multiple CD’s, it was such an ordeal and then to not have a ticket after all but still putting on my thinking cap and managing to figure out where the event was while i was at disney sea and literally running from disney sea to the venue in high heels with The Man playing on my phone was oscar-worthy and actually *being correct* and the moment i knew i was correct and how i knew i was correct was so amazing 😉 and i play by the rules so i didn’t try to get in without a ticket and i didn’t lurk. but just to have figured it out and validated it was such a thrill. seeing her on TV live was amazing as well ///
lost in japan, reprise
oh and, last year for rep tour there was this theory i had which didn’t pan out but it had to do with the clues i thought shawn mendes was dropping through autumn 2018 and anyway that’s a story for another day but as i was bopping around town, looking for lockets, staying in rooms i have no business being in, drinking lots of whisky...just to know that while i was doing *everything but* successfully meeting taylor, she literally phoned shawn and had him record lines for that eye theory remix like, i will never ever, like, guys. guys. 😂 it’s too perfect for words. the world is weird like that sometimes.
Lover
and omg Lover the album? i absolutely love lover and i loves that honeymoon period of theorizing and parallel unearthing that we did and i love how slightly creepy-cute it is and i love the whole wabi-sabi thing going on and i absolutely love every song on the album, every one, they all have so much meaning to me... and each one is teeming with little blips and bloops and sound samples and seconds of silence and i love all the brass instruments and so many lush moments... i guess my shortlist (in no particular order) would be the archer, lover, i think he knows, daylight, cruel summer, false god, cornelia street, ME! (yea i really like me 🥰). and to think about everything that went in to the album and the thrill of what it might have been and the vastness of what we don’t know, but like, the weight of that potential?? it’s like this vast pastel and black abyss of drowsy and deep feelings and i love every inch of it. it’s a vibe that reflects so much of what this year has been for me and i’m happy to have existed in this time to have had it with me.
jesus this has gotten too long, and i still have like 24 more things to write out but um, basically, as i’m sure you’ve been able to assume? i wanted to say that despite 2019 being somewhat of a slasher film affair for our fandom, i still had a goddamn great time this year and i hope everyone can find some good memories and relive them as well 🥰

Do i get asks: Hmm not really, unless i make an ask game or ask people to request some doodles (ask me... stuff if you want.... i love talking..). I got some asks about my url around the time the Alexa meme went viral (some people said my name reminded them of despacito)

"Why are you still here?" with either Sparcy or RedFinch?
hmmmhm bold of you to assume i’d write for redfinch but well tried i don’t have anything against the ship but ppl made me dislike it from the start i’m sorry hh
anyway here’s uhhhh sparcy idk if i should put a tw ? tell me what i should add if needed !! it’s sort of angsty i think though so uh yeah
“Why are you still… here ?”
“Oh. Uh.”
The question had come off as a surprise, for Darcy certainly hadn’t heard the other step in the room. Oh, he’d just been too focused on other things, like… the really bad sensation everything was offering at the moment, including the clothing. Especially the clothing.
“Feeling bad. I forgot to get out.”
“Darcy, no one takes baths with their clothes on.”
“Contributes to the feeling bad part…”
This was concerning, for Spot at least. The other didn’t seem very phased by anything, except the fact his clothes felt all sticky and gross. It did make him feel awful, but nothing in him had given him the courage to take them off. So he was stuck there, in water that was just cold at this point, and he didn’t move. Just… rocking back and forth kind of staring at the water, but he wasn’t really staring. Looking at nothing would be a better way to describe it ; Spot understood what that meant and his heart broke, every second he spent watching him before he decided to make a move and step closer.
“Can I touch you ?” He enquired, cautiously leaning against the bathtub and waiting for Darcy to nod before he leaned closer, struggling to take his shirt off - but managing. Setting it on the floor next to the tub, he then got onto taking his pants and underwear off, making them join the shirt and shifting to turn on the water. He didn’t want to see his boyfriend get sick because of this. He needed a warm bath, not this cold water.
With the hot water now running, Spot tried to mix it with the rest of the water to warm it up. Soon enough, he was also gently poking Darcy to bring him back to reality.
“You should sit more comfortably, hey… Do you want bubbles ?” His tone always kept soft and quiet. Noise would only worsen things, and he’d been very careful to be a better boyfriend lately. Darcy seemed more responsive too, more… aware. And he laid back against the tub, humming quietly as he closed his eyes. “No bubbles.”
Spot was about to nod, but the other added a gesture to it - a hand gesture. Gesture that meant, ‘leave the room’. This time, he nodded, and with that he left the bathroom.
Half an hour later, Darcy was back in the living room, where Spot was waiting on the couch. Quickly joining him, the shorter of the two offered him a smile and shifted closer.
“How’re you feelin’ ?” All these questions were always genuine, and full of both love and worry. But Darcy was smiling as well this time, pushing his glasses up on his nose.
“Good, thank you for the water. You forgot to take care of the wet clothes, so I put them in the washing machine for you.”
“Oh… yea. Sorry, I kinda forgot about these…”
“It’s fine, I’d told you to leave anyway. It’s nothing big.” Darcy wheezed softly, reaching out to hold Spot’s hand and leaning against him with a sigh. “Didn’t really wanna get out, though. The bath felt really nice without the clothes.”
“Yea, usually people don’t like wet clothing,” Spot retorted with a sort of sarcasm, but Darcy was quick to smack his arm lightly. “Don’t be such a smartass, that’s my job,” he joked, then pecking Spot’s cheek. “Thank you for helping me out, even if you’re being mean.”
“I’d be a shit boyfriend if I didn’t help you when you need it.”
“True.”
Silence settled in. Just lying against each other, Darcy with his eyes closed and Spot fondly watching over him. He preferred the peaceful moments, the ones when Darcy was happy. That was all he deserved, and he was so stupid for not having managed to do it right before. He was always trying - Darcy deserved someone who tried for him.
“What do you wanna eat tonight ?”
“I’d say Chinese.”
“Sounds good to me. I’ll order it.”
“Thank you.” A pause. “Hey, Spot ?”
“Hm ?”
“I’m glad you’re here.”
Then both of them were.

Naja: 15
You stay at the cabin for two days before you have a plan. Bucky is still grumbling about not liking it but you don’t have a choice, your world is kill or be killed.
You let Bucky drive, you can pay more attention to your surroundings.
“Where exactly are we going?”
“I have a source who could give me a good lead on where to find King Cobra.”
“Why snakes?”
“I don’t know. The group already existed when I joined and I never bothered to ask.” You’re quiet for a while when lights light up his review mirror,
“Shit.” Bucky swears pulling over, “I have a gun so this is gonna be a problem.” You glance behind you,
“Bucky.” He glances over at you, “that’s not a cop.”
“How sure are you?”
“99%, I’ve seen him do this before. Mamba.”
“What do you suggest here then?”
“Give me your gun.”
“No.”
“It is kill or be killed Barnes. Now give me the gun.” He glares over at you before handing it over, Mamba is smart, he’s coming to your side first. “Get his attention.” You mutter watching Mamba move closer on your side of the car. Bucky pops open the door and climbs out.
“Excuse me officer is something wrong?” He says.
“Get back in the fucking car.”
“Officer?” He asks playing stupid, “is something wrong?” Mamba pulls his gun then and Bucky’s eyes go wide as he raises his hands in surrender.
You make your move then, sliding out of the car you fire twice, hitting him in the shoulder and leg.
“You bitch!” He snarls, “I’ll kill you for that!”
“Nice to see you too Mamba.” You say coolly sauntering closer to him.
“You disgusting traitor. I could’ve taken care of you but instead you team up with him.”
“I don’t need you to take care of me Mamba,” you tell him rolling your eyes, “clearly. Now I have a couple questions for you, either you tell me or I get creative.”
“You’re gonna let your lover see what a disgusting monster you are?”
“He’s not my lover.” You say kicking Mamba’s gun over to Bucky who takes the hint and picks it up. “How many of you does Bossman have on this?” He stays quiet so you get low, right in his face, “you’re not gaining anything by not telling me. He’s going to kill you for failing anyways.” Mamba lashes out at you with a knife so you step away and shoot him in the forehead. He looks stunned before he falls backward with a dull thud.
You grab his phone and open it, checking to see what you can get off of it before putting a bullet through it. You check the car for any surveillance before climbing into the car
“Did you have to kill him?” Bucky asks tiredly when you get back into the car.
“He started it.” You snark as Bucky pulls away, accelerating quickly.
“We’re lucky no one came along.”
“He probably pulled us over there because of that. One step closer to Bossman.”
“How many more of you are there?”
“There are four more that I know of, not including King Cobra. Python, Cottonmouth, Anaconda and Boomslang.”
“Any of them women?”
“Just me.” You tell him, you’re on your way back toward the city, back where you know King Cobra is.
“Do you want to kill them all?”
“I’m going to give the the opportunity to work for me.”
“Seriously Tori?” He asks sounding slightly disgusted and you glance over at him.
“If I’m in charge I can shift from killing for the highest bidder to being more protectors. Maybe I’ll even see if they’d be willing to be bodyguards. We clearly know what to look for.”
“Who would trust a former assassin?” He asks and you know he doesn’t mean for it to hurt but it does.
“It’s not like I’d advertise it that way. I’m not a fool.” You grumble before going quiet. You rest your head against the window, you can understand his feelings, most people wouldn’t be down with you killing people either. It was just, he’d told you he’d caught feelings too, that he liked you and he’d kissed you but here he was making little jabs and reminding you just how untrustworthy you were.
You attempt to sleep, but it keeps playing in your head over and over, who would trust a former assassin?
Clearly not Bucky.
“I think we’re here.” You pop open your eyes and look over at him before glancing out the window at the building in front of you.
“Yea, this is it. We need to either ditch this car or swap out the plates.”
“Why?”
“Because if I was looking for us, I’d be looking for this car. That could be other snakes or it could be the police.”
“Yea, wouldn’t want them to find you now.”
“Either of us James. If the snakes find you you’re dead. If the cops find me you’re dead. I’ll escape but not before the snakes find where you are and kill you.”
“You say this all so simply, like it’s easy.”
“It is for me Bucky! Okay? This has been my life for more time than it hasn’t at this point. I’m the monster you protect other monsters from, I get that you hate me and distrust me. That’s fine. Just let me get you out of this alive.” Bucky stares after you as you climb out of the car, you head into the building hearing him following behind you but neither of you say anything.
Once you get to the safe apartment you go into the secret side panel and pull out new plates for his car.
“Get comfortable, I’m going to go swap these out really quick then we can plan or whatever.” You says moving quickly past him, just not fast enough.
“I don’t hate you.” He says softly, “I just don’t know how to trust you right now. Seeing this version of you is, it doesn’t match with what I know of you. Hearing you talk like this cold blooded killer isn’t normal.”
“James, let go. I need to go switch the plates or we’re gonna get caught.”
“I don’t hate you.”
“Okay.” You don’t believe him.
