Confessional
Pairing: Wolfwood & Reader, Vash/Reader Rating: Explicit (for language and discussion of explicit topics) Words: 773 Tags: gender neutral reader, Wolfwood's stupid portable confessional, trigun 98, reader has a crush on Vash and thinks it's unrequited, Wolfwood is my best friend who makes me want to punch him in the face A/N: this isn't really crack but it sure is stupid!
Tumblr media
“You’re brooding,” Wolfwood says, coming to lean against the siding of the building next to you.
You shoot him an annoyed glance. “I'm not brooding.”
He plows forward like he didn’t hear you. “It’s about needle-noggin, ain’t it?”
“No,” you lie, “it’s not.” It’s not about him, or the way you wish he felt even an ounce of what you feel for him, or the way he was so close to you last night while he was drunk and now is keeping a careful distance. It’s not about any of that. Of course it’s not.
“It’d probably help if you confessed your sins,” he says, pulling out that damn ‘portable confessional’ with a shit-eating grin that makes you roll your eyes at the best of times—and now just makes you scoff.
“Yeah,” you reply with biting sarcasm, “I’m sure it would.”
“Come on,” he says, grinning wider. “You know you want to.”
“Not a single part of me wants that, Nic. I don’t even know the however-many-sins-there-are.”
“Seven,” he supplies helpfully, ticking them off on his fingers: “pride, sloth, greed, gluttony, wrath, envy, and—“ he winks at you— “lust.”
You laugh, incredulous. “Right. Okay. You know what? Fuck it.” 
His eyebrows shoot up in surprise as you snatch the confessional from his hands, putting it over your head and crossing your arms over your chest. If he’s gonna be an ass, you’re gonna make him regret it. 
“You wanna hear me confess my fuckin’ sins, Nicholas? Here: hey, father, I’ve been lustful as hell! I can’t even look in his general direction without getting horny! I can’t stop thinking about making out with him, and every time he pulls a trigger I think about his fingers inside me! I wanna fuck him six ways to sunday, in every position imaginable, over and over again until neither of us can walk for days!!” You can’t see his face right now, but you hope you’re making it as red as yours feels—though, damn him, it does feel good to confess this shit to somebody. Even if that somebody is Wolfwood. “I am lustful every minute of every goddamn day, and especially every minute of the night. And, hey, Isn’t masturbation a sin? I’m super guilty of that one. Like super guilty. Like every night guilty. He so much as smiles at me and I’m gonna jack off about it. I want to ride him like a goddamn Tomas, and you know what? I’m so in love with him, it hurts!”
…Well, you’ve sort of lost the plot, now. And you’re feeling much less confident than you were ten seconds ago. You pull the stupid box off your head and hold it back out to Wolfwood, jaw set and face flushed. 
His eyebrows are still sky-high, but he doesn’t quite look like you’ve embarrassed him… just yourself.
“There,” you say with finality. “That’s my confession.”
“Hi guys!” the voice behind you makes the blood drain from your face. Come on. You feel the warmth of him as he comes up behind you—you feel his presence, like you always do. “What’s up?” Vash asks.
Wolfwood’s eyes dart to you, then up to meet Vash’s gaze as he grins predatorily. “Oh, they were just telling me something really funny.” He cocks his head at you, and you want to wipe that damn smile right off his face. “Hey, why don’t you tell Vash what you just told me?”
You’re going to kill him. You’re actually going to kill him. Glaring daggers, you do your best to make your tone cheerful, though it sounds forced even to your own ear. 
“Oh, it really wasn’t that funny!”
“Sure it was,” Wolfwood says, smug as all hell. “Made me laugh, anyhow.”
You grind your teeth.
“I’m sure it was funny, I wanna hear it!” Vash says, and Jesus Christ, why did you ever open your mouth?
“Yeah, he wants to hear it,” Nicholas taunts.
You take a deep breath. “Oh! Hey, uh, I just remembered that Meryl and Milly need me for—um—something! Gotta run!”
With one final death glare thrown Wolfwood’s way, you turn on your heel, pointedly not looking at Vash as you make your completely un-smooth exit—you can’t let him see the way your face is burning.
God. Wolfwood’s never gonna let you live this one down.
Vash frowns as you leave, sure that he’s stepped into something, but not sure what. “What was so funny, Wolfwood?”
Nicholas claps him on the shoulder, the portable confessional set down on the ground. “Believe me,” he says, slipping a cigarette between his lips. “You’re gonna wanna hear it from them.”

re-read time -- pieces/details that I adored in this chapter!!!
I love that you've added the detail, that even in a sling, Violet can still beat people up easily. she's a fucking threat even when handicapped. I love a woman who can easily kill me
"It wasn’t fair to leave them in the dark as she had been." They are the best friend group and I hope all my current/future friendships are like this
"That’s okay. You can just breathe for a minute.” -- Ridoc is so sweet. He knows she doesnt have much time but giving her the space to just breathe, ugh Ridoc has my heart
What was going through Liam's mind when he realized Violet knew?
“Sit down,” she ordered, and he sat." -- Garrick not even protesting or questioning Violet, had me dying
"Brennan winced. Bodhi and Imogen looked away from her. Garrick ran a hand across his mouth. Liam—Liam she still didn’t let herself look at. " -- I so badly want to know what theyre all thinking and if they feel any guilt? Are they all in awe (Xaden too) that Violet figured this all out on her own with NO help whatsoever?
“Of course I fucking care!” he shouted, and it was maybe the first time he’d ever raised his voice at her. “Fuck, do you really think I’m such an awful, heartless person that I could take care of you and hold you the way that I have and it means nothing to me? Do you think you mean nothing to me?”  -- OMG AHHH. YOUR HONOR IS THIS A CONFESSION??? IS IT???? Even on my re-read, this still hit me with the same intensity
“I think we’ve already got all the secrets out in the open,” he said quietly. -- XADEN YOU FOOL HAHAHAHAHAHA YOU IDIOT. I am cackling so hard. On a different note, is he genuinely upset that Violet verbalized what his second signet is?
Just thinking of this line "“Yes. Okay,” Xaden repeated. “I’m assuming you just figured it out, and even if you didn’t and kept it to yourself, that’s your right.” -- So curious to know whats going on in his head but I know we're in the long haul until we have his POV
“I can just read your face, Sorrengail,” Xaden said. “I know you despite your every effort to the contrary.” -- WHY AM I HEARTBROKEN THAT HE CALLED HER SORRENGAIL AND NOT VIOLET OR VIOLENCE. Xaden is in the naughty corner and he knows it.
The angst was so good!!! This is my favorite chapter, which i feel like it constantly changes every time you update
Ridoc deserves the entire world and I will give it to him!!
Liam was trying to figure out if he was going to be the first to die 😂 just a steady stream of “oh shit oh shit we’re fucked she’s so scary like this”
Garrick went “she is in charge of this country and subsequently of me I’ll sit like a good boy”
I don’t think any of them are really guilty. They’re all falling into the “we had to do what we had to do” camp with the added bonus of just following Xaden’s orders. They are all very nervous of what Violet might do and very impressed that she figured it out
He’s not upset that she knows necessarily because Violet is right (and so was Sgaeyl)—some part of him knew that she had the pieces and she’d put it together. It’s more the danger it puts her and the entire country in if anyone else finds out about it
Calling her Sorrengail was like a punch to the stomach but I was writing it and I was like “yeah this fits here”
Thank you bestie 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

“Who were they?! I need names!! No one makes my best friend cry!! 😠😡” *sniff* Becca it’s alright…it’s fine- ”No it’s not!! Sorry-sorry- but I’m not gotta stand by and let one of my best friends, the one who gave me a second chance, be hurting. Now I’m going to get more of your favorite drinks and food and I’m going to have a chat. I believe I know who it is.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
*Cue Rebecca chasing after Barry and Gordon internally realizing that Rebecca could’ve thrown hands with him if she wanted to when he made fun of her on her first days. 😨😨*
Bear and Rebecca’s friendship and steam-diesel friendships in general (like the Adam/Alfred/diesel besties) are important in my au mainly in the special. Bear rescues Rebecca from the scrapyards and understood the complications she’s having with Gordon, defending her she’s doesn’t have the best experience with diesels post and pre withdrawal and first attempt of escaping but she always tries to see the best in everybody. So when Bear among the other diesels are starting to become mistreated during the whole dotd/calling all engines/Barry the recuse engine cause we need more antagonistic steam engine and cause I have Dudley in my mind and I’m 100% percent convinced that Rebecca will throw buffers with Dudley, she willingly returns the favor for Bear and the others since she was constantly teased and made fun of for her clumsiness and wheel slip and she has a bit of a pleasing attitude still has it. Though she can be rather intense and takes it to the extreme sometimes cause she can’t stand anyone being mistreated or bullied (Rip Barry, we hardly knew ya, Rebecca punches him in the face, breaking his nose and rightfully calling out and scolding everyone in her uncanny manner unless pushed to her breaking point yes that’s includes Diesel 10 even though they’re Friends as well XD)

BEING BESTIES W/ SOME JJK CHARACTERS; Yuuji, Megumi, Nobara, Gojou and Sukuna.
Notes: Look. I know we all simp terribly for our husbandos/waifus but I just wanted to write a simple hc about what it's like to be their besties
Warning(s): slight cursing. I indulged too much on Sukuna.
Includes: gn! reader, fluff, chaotic energy, mentions of romance (just light)
Itadori Yuji
He's friends with everyone, says hi to strangers and probably would be besties with every old lady he meets so it wasn't hard to be friends with him.
But the second he becomes besties with you, shit's gonna get borderline chaotic.
3AM and y'all can't sleep? McDonald's parking lot with an abandoned shopping car would sound damned fine. You both remember the moment as 'Chicken Nuggies and the Wind' since he t-posed on the moving cart whilst eating nuggies (you both almost scratched a Ferari).
If you weren't a jujutsu sorcerer in training, he'd still try to sneak you in his room to watch some movies. You with the snacks, leaving Yuji in charge of the movie picking (you can't decide to save your life)
Cuddles! Nothing wrong with besties cuddling. He's extremely respectful to your s/o (if you have one) and are probably good friends with them too!
Though the second you come to him crying, they were already being patched up in the hospital. Won't hit a woman, against his morals, but he will make sure she never speaks to you again.
Understanding, chaotic besties! An arm around your shoulder when someone's obviously making you uncomfortable, he's the one barking when he sees someone slip something into your drink.
The friend to help you find your way out of a frat house. Makes sure you're getting touched with your consent and sober. All you need to do is give him a sign that you're alright and he'll give you a thumbs up before leaving.
Definitely the friend you'd open up to (about anything) and not be treated differently after so.
You told him about your problems a few minutes prior. It was quiet, a bit too quiet. And you were worried he might leave you for it.
"Ey, Y/N. Wanna go to McDonald's again? I think they have that burger you like," He blurts, catching you off guard. You raise your eyebrows before smiling gratefully.
"Sounds great, Itadori."
You guys talk about women with butts all the time. Not out of thirst or anything, it would just be a random thought that comes up and one of you would contribute to the other. You once mentioned something about Jennifer Lawrence and he would not stop talkinf about her. It was hilarious how much he was drooling.
You wear his hoodies and he's fine with it. Thinks you look good in them. Sukuna teases you both about your relationship and Yuji slaps his mouth shut before he says anything more.
"You look great in them, Y/N," Itadori grins, rummaging through his closet to find more hoodies.
"Thank you. They're pretty comfy," You mention the fabric and the fluffiness. He listens to you intently before Sukuna pops out from his cheek.
"Ehhh? This is the one you think about everyday--," Itadori has never slapped his cheek so hard before in his life.
Megumi Fushiguro
Honestly, pretty chill dude.
He has a small group of people he trusts, and a smaller one to which he considers to be his good friends.
So to be his best friend, you must've gained a huge amount of respect from him; saved him, maybe even overheard something you shouldn't have and kept quiet about it on your own accord.
You would have a 'you aren't comfortable with it, so I'm not forcing anything' vibe to which he would be relieved to know. Though even so, you are the more hyper one in the platonic relationship.
Outings would consist of trips to libraries or quiet nights on the couch with your legs entangled together with lo-fi music playing in the background.
Not much talking, Megumi likes to keep to himself and you have no problem with the comfortable silence you both bring together.
Though sometimes it gets too quiet so you annoy the hell out of him to get his attention; cheek poking, soft arm punches, slight pushing.
Megumi ignores this, finding your actions a bit cute. If it gets too annoying, he will get up and leave, having you trail behind him, whining like a child wanting candy.
Yuji would join in. Definitely. Nobara too if she was bored enough.
"Megumi~ I want your attention~," You whine, running after the raven-haired man.
"Yeah! Yeah! Pay attention to Y/N!" Yuji supports you. You clap your hands together, only to be hit with a shoe by Megumi.
He would never do anything outside of your comfort zone. If you had an s/o, they both would be neutral with each other.
If you were to get hurt from said s/o, they would leave your house with a bloody knuckle. He wouldn't hit a girl, but he definitely will destroy whatever life she has outside of your relationship with her.
Parties are a no-go for him, unless his friends force him to. He's the designated driver with three other drunk children (Hint; Yuuji, Nobara and you). He wouldn't carry anyone else but you back to your room.
"Jeez, Y/N. You should know how to handle your alcohol," Megumi sighs, laying you on top of your bed gently and pulling the covers up.
"Nngh. Didn't know it was alcohol," You groaned. He smiles, patting your cheek before getting up to leave.
"I'll get you some painkillers in the morning, alright?"
You can wear his sweatshirts if you annoy him about it (he secretly likes how comfortable you are around him). He thinks you look charming in them, Yuji never shuts up about your friendship. It's the few times he's seen Megumi genuinely smile.
Nobara Kugisaki
Radiates bad bitch energy.
It isn't easy in the first stages since she has standards with friends but the second you both find something similar about each other, it's an immediate ride-or-die friendship.
You would need a major backbone, 'I'm too hot for this bs' kinda vibe (it's canon that the reader is a bad bitch, periodt). You would have arguments with her but it's pretty basic stuff like the perfect colour for nailpolish or whether Maki deserves the Earth or the universe (you both agree it's the universe).
Outings consists of shopping malls and popular cafes. You take selfies everytime you see something relatively new.
Talk about anything under the sun -- newest trends, new food to try out, Maki -- but her favourites are hearing you talk about your day. If you weren't a jujutsu sorcerer, she'd visit your apartment, give you a hug and sit on the couch to listen to you blabber away about something that isn't related to curses or death. She needs time to rewind and you never mention how vulnerable she looks when she's tired.
"Uh-huh and what happens next?" Nobara asked, carressing your hair as you lay on her lap.
"He wouldn't stop following us! It was so creepy! No means no right? Like why would you waste your energy following a group of friends who aren't interested?" You ranted on. Nobara simply nods in agreement, smiling at your annoyed face.
She doesn't mind your s/o, probably would just say hi before leaving you two alone. She doesn't have a problem about her friends having a relationship, she does, however, gets pissed that she isn't in one.
If you come to her crying about them, she would slither in some 'fuckin told you they were gonna do it' or 'I told you so'. Though it makes you upset, you know she's gonna trash their house the second you leave the room.
Your (now) ex would suddenly be cancelled beyond belief, you wouldn't know what happened to them.
Despite the bad bitch personality, you are the more patient one.
Parties is a yes. She comes in as a self-confident woman and will leave self-confident and drunk. She's the life of the party and pulls you into conversations to keep you company. Even if you don't contribute much to the conversation, she makes sure you aren't out of her sight. She's not the type to bring a friend to a party and leave them the second after. She cares about you even if her way of showing was a bit too pushy.
You share clothes with her and she'll give you comments about it.
"The shirt doesn't fit. No, no. The other one. Yeah, that one."
"Who cares if people say you aren't supposed to wear skirts? Your ass rocks better in those than mine. Just take them."
Personally likes dressing you up, doesn't like dressing you up for dates though. Still doesn't know why.
Gojou Satoru
God, the willpower you have to even tolerate this man is immense.
It's not hard to be his friend, all you have to do is do something that amuses him and he'll keep teasing you about it.
In this platonic relationship, you're the more calm one. People call you to take care of Gojou constantly, and you're the only one he allows to scold him.
He goes for missions half the time so it's rare to see you both go for outings. The most you've been together outside of Jujustu Tech and work hours was in a bar with Nanami (you both bond over the fact that Gojou is terrible to work with). He got too drunk and started slurring his words.
"Y/N~ stohp flirting with Nanamin and talk to meee," He whines, pinching your cheeks as you sigh.
"We are simply talking about your bad work habits, Satoru," Nanami answers whilst shaking his head, downing another drink before he gets up to leave. "I'll take him home, rest well Y/N."
"Noooo, I want Y/N!"
A needy best friend. Constantly asks for attention. If you ignored him, he would only make the situation slightly more annoying -- similar to Megumi's Y/N, the basic cheek poking and whining.
Your s/o would probably hate him, he's a bit too flirty and likes to hug you in public. People mistake you both for a couple rather than the s/o at hand. Don't be surprised if it's the main reason your relationships don't end well.
If you come to him upset because of them, he wouldn't waste a second to zoom to your shared apartment and 'deal' with the person. Would come back with a smile and some takoyaki. No blood on him since he used his infinity.
Parties are alright with him. He's the cool flirty dude everyone seems to fawn over. Would accompany you for half an hour, only to leave with another chick to a nearby bedroom. You never end up partying with him after opening the God forsaken door and he's never stopped trying to make it up to you.
Other than the traumatic event, he'd a bit of a douche but still tries to look for you in the crowd. He waves once he sees you and flashes a reassuring smile before continuing his talk with the others.
You don't share clothes with him simply because it's Gojou. Who knows when the last time he washed his clothes.
Though he's willing to share. You're just more reluctant, really. Finds it cute when his shirts are slightly bigger than you. If you're built bigger than he is, he would like how tight it looks on your body.
"Starting to think you look better in my clothes than I am. And that's a pretty good compliment." He grins.
Hates the fact you never take his compliments seriously. Says it from the bottom of his heart, he really thinks you're charming.
Ryomen Sukuna
God, was it hard trying to befriend this curse of a man. An asshole, he stuck his feet out to trip you over multiple times before cackling like a damned demon (which he is).
Though you're always genuine with him. You liked having conversations with him and listen to him boast about himself for hours. Guess that's when he saw you as a close acquaintance.
Would never tell you you're his best friend. Never. Not once. Him simply acknowledging you was enough for everyone to know he favored one person.
Being friends with Sukuna meant being friends Yuji. Itadori always apologizes on his behalf and you would always laugh, telling him it's alright. Sukuna gets annoyed by this though.
"Stupid human. Who do you think you are being all mush with this useless vessel of mine?" He sneered the second he could pop out. You shrugged, taking some popcorn to feed him.
"He's a pretty good guy. You should cut him some slack," You answered, stuffing some popcorn to your face as well
Will constantly threaten to kill you but you never paid heed. You know you're his only friend. You don't agree with his actions but you find the curse interesting.
Literally the only person who's allowed to tease him. You get away with things most curses would get killed from. You once hand him super hot sauce for his pancakes and he glared at you for the remainder of his time being conscious in Yuji's body. You found the plate broken with a fork stabbed through it.
You aren't allowed to go on outings with Sukuna (obviously) so you both spend your time within Yuji's room. Not allowed to go out since everyone'll freak out seeing Yuji with tattoos resembling the King of Curses.
"Humans are so boring," Sukuna groaned, his head on the bedstand. "All they do is just sit around doing nothing but scroll through their stupid boxes." You smiled at him.
"Not my fault you commit mass genocide for fun. I'd say we're pretty passive."
He would literally never care about your love life. Still has the old man mentality that romance meant sex and that was about it. If they were to meet, the curse would just roll his eyes and turn the other way.
Getting hurt by your s/o results to hurtful teasing and bloodshed. No in-between, no nothing. He wouldn't know how to comfort you properly so he'd send Yuji in his place. Would sit at the back of Yuji's mind getting pissed that he was hugging and rubbing your back gently as if he couldn't have done it himself (literally sent Yuji only to judge him).
Not allowed to go out so parties is also a no-go BUT since this is just a headcanon, let's imagine it's college AU.
College AU Sukuna would love parties -- he throws them, orders his friends to invite hot girls and frat guys. And invites you himself. No one would know you were friends since he never mentions it but will literally choke anyone who looks at you like you're a piece of candy.
Gets way too drunk and probably have railed 3 people to cloud 9 in a matter of 2 hours but still go out just to check up on you. He doesn't necessarily care but he hates having the sick feeling that you were in possible danger somewhere he wouldn't be able to see you.
Stare at you for a good 3 seconds before leaving you alone. You'd never know he was there.
Clothes! His clothes are Yuji's and he barely even keeps his shirts in tact. Does he care whether you wear it or not? No.
Is he pissed? Slightly.
This took me two days, I'm not sure if it sounds canon anymore. Anyways, thank you for reading!

Do you think levihan is canon?
Tumblr media
I’m guessing you’re not asking about my overall opinion on 139, so I’ll just leave it here as a Levihan opinion. I could probably do another rant about my overall opinion of the ending but probs another time.  
And I have been meaning to make this meta for a while and I kinda wanted to wait for the last chapter cause for some crazy reason, I was a clown hoping that Levihan would just suddenly happen? Like maybe in the paths, she walks to him or something 
But woop. We have to search again for the crumbs like we’re on some scavenger hunt. 
And you know what? I like it this way. Thank you Yams for not butchering your characters over one ship. Thank you for portraying so realistically what romance between two mature adults with responsibilities is actually supposed to look like. 
So yeah, before we go into it, I did go around asking about other ships and I realized, maybe we have been using the word ‘canon’ incorrectly. Or so, that’s the first thing I thought. 
I had a conversation with my sister a few days back (who hates Levihan if it isn’t obvious), and she used to be an avid Klaroline shipper back in the day (The Vampire Diaries), and she explained that a the fandom actually don’t see Klaroline as a canon couple even if they were teased throughout the show (fucked, kissed and everything in between) since it isn’t end game. 
So to lay out my terms here and just be incredibly clear about it. I consider Levihan canon, but I do not consider them end game because they obviously aren’t, 132 happened and Hange didn’t come back.. 
So what do i mean by canon? 
There are lots of nuances here to consider when we call them canon. 
For one, fandoms wait for the couple to be ‘official’ kiss and all. Other fandoms wait for the end before they say it, because no matter how many times two characters fuck, kiss and declare their undying love, if they don’t commit, if they don’t make it to the end, then it’s not canon. 
When I say Levihan is canon, I clearly mean,  even if they didn’t end up together, they probably could have still been in a relationship, they probably could have still been in love. They probably actually held a stronger and much more nuanced bond than whatever main couple we watch in some sappy romantic drama. 
And maybe they actually did fall in love behind closed doors? Maybe they meta-ed their own relationship together and maybe they’ve discussed it and maybe they were aware. ( have a meta about it here)
But here’s the thing, we’ll never know, because in Season 4, after A LOT of the development of their relationship could have been implied, Levi and Hange were separated from each other so we actually didn’t get a lot of scenes of them closely together until 115, 126 etc. 
And here is the part where people call me delusional? Because people who invalidate our ship like to do that.
Because yes.. They’re just ultra mega besties. 
AND I GET SO FRUSTRATED AT THIS TAKE. LIKE SINCE WHEN HAS ROMANCE EVER RUINED FRIENDSHIPS?
It doesn’t make any sense??? Like I have no idea how people are having relationships when the first they think when they get into a relationship is “I don’t wanna ruin this friendship,” 
I get confessing and rejecting can ruin a relationship but getting into a relationship? How does that ruin a friendship. 
I’m sorry I know that is such a trope but like yo, half the time when people ask about me and my boyfriend (who started of as bestfriends) WE GOT INTO THIS RELATIONSHIP BECAUSE WE WANTED TO BE ‘BESTIES’ IN OTHER DIMENSIONS AS WELL. 
AND WE WANTED TO BE SUPER ULTRA MEGA BESTIES (lovers in short). 
It is inevitable that you will be best friends with your partner. Yo, if your partner aint one of your besties or one of your most trusted confidants, you might wanna... you know, reevaluate your relationship???
There are so many layers to love than just kiss kiss smooch a
Like, I’m incredibly choosy with romance ships like if people noticed, I only ever have written this much for Levihan. 
And one main reason for this really is because writers have a tendency of messing with a story, doing things that don’t make sense so the couple that is slated to get together, actually ends up together.
And the development never seemed natural half the time? Because some writers are just obsessed with making their pair happen. And what do they do after? They put them into so much drama which makes me question the overall health of the relationship.
nd I dunno, media is probably messing with this perspective of love by saying obviously problematic relationships are canon. So yeah even if he punched his girlfriend ONCE, and even if she cheated on him ONCE, they probably still loved each other so they’re canon lmao.
And call me a puritan here or something but there are certain things people do in a relationship and when it happens I will just sit there and say, that ain’t love, do you guys even love each other? 
And sorry I’m probably that asshole friend who would probably hate your toxic partner and will probably just tell you I’m not showing up to your wedding if I don’t like your partner.
I will not condone cheating AT ALL. I personally do not want to consider ‘canon’ any relationship where two people cheat on each other. I personally do not wanna consider ‘canon’ a relationship that thrives on miscommunication issues either because I dunno if I just got into the wrong relationship or something? But like at the age of 24, we actually talk stuff out 
Like woah, there are couples who don’t talk things out? Like what do you do when you’re stuck with each other 24/7? NOt TALK? 
I will consider canon any ship that runs on implicit trust, this belief that they should be constantly there with each other. Because that’s what love is. That’s what a relationship is and I’m gonna live my whole life believing that these are the only things that make up love for me. 
Love is trust. Love is a strong bond. Love is just two people giving and taking and sacrificing for each other. And Love is this commitment to make something work with the other person. 
And if it isn’t any of the things above, ‘sorry for invalidating’ but it ain’t love and by extension, it ain’t canon for me.  
Tbh, I think that’s the reason Levihan has been incredibly uneventful relationship wise actually made it so much for me that I thought they were pretty much canon. I still have issues with how Eremika was pulled off even if they were blatantly canon and had more than enough blatant crumbs. 
Because sure Eren and Mikasa did love each other but I guess their relationship was just so problematic since the start that even I was like ‘do you guys really love each other?’ half the time and I was constantly thinking about Mikasa’s mental health there like yo, why you so obsessed with him. There’s literally a Jean there who would probably treat you 124543x better,  
But for Levi and Hange we had parallels with Eremika. And we had crumbs
With putting his crumbs for Levihan, from the airplane, unrequited titan love, let’s live together, Hange’s longing face and the Levi’s dedicate your heart and the fact that HANGE NEVER LEFT HIS SIDE UNTIL THEY DIED, come on, I don’t know what people aren’t seeing. 
But the point is, (Okay understandable since Levi and Hange are older), Personally I just believe Levi and Hange approached their relationship more like mature adults than hormonal teenagers. Like so sorry, they decided to approach their relationship like adults instead of some teenager who bird poops on any guy who tries to cheat on Mikasa. 
Here’s the thing, Hange probably never would have complained like Eren. I honestly believe it was totally in character for her to just look down on him longingly from the paths. And I personally believed Levi had approached their relationship with a kind of acceptance like ‘ ay yo, we’re too busy for this but maybe after the war?’ that’s why even towards the end, the only way he lets himself be reminded of her was through watching the airplane and thinking of her. *fudge I’m tearing up* 
I guess the fact that they really approached this relationship and this bond like how they’re characters were supposed to, the fact that they threw everything away for the sake of the war. Yet the fact that we saw ALL THIS CRUMBS that there could have been something more if they just weren’t captain and commander in the middle of the war, just makes this so fucking canon to me. 
I would probably be speculative if we just had 115? Or maybe just 126? Or maybe just 132? But the thing is, the crumbs never stopped coming. There were so many things Yams could have CHOSEN not to do. But he did everything so deliberately from ‘let’s live together’ to ‘unrequited love’ to the Eremika parallels. 
Did he have to draw that airplane in the air and Levi making eye contact with Onyakopon? Okay I wonder why he did that? Cause really what connects Levi to Onyakopon? WHAT PLANE SCENE CONNECTS LEVI TO ONYAKOPON? 
I dunno man, but really at this point, this is so canon. Like sure Eremika takes the cake for most blatantly canon. 
But given the terms I’ve stated above for what I believe romance, love, relationships and canon is for me. 
Levihan is canon and it probably is the most canon relationship for me. Because the blatant lack of drama in the portrayal of their relationship for me just proves, Levi and Hange were very sure about their relationship with the other, I could probably say they were the two surest people in love in the whole damn show. 
THEY JUST COULDN’T GET TOGETHER BECAUSE OF CIRCUMSTANCES. (WHICH MAKES THEM ALL THE MORE ADMIRABLE ANYWAY)
So thanks for reading and sorry about this major ass rant.

can i req for victon reaction when bff! s/o constantly confessing but they think of it as a joke until s/o distances and gets close w another member 👉👈
pls make it a fluff i dont want to cri lmAo
+ im so sorry if this is so detailed sksbskdm
+ take ur time and thank you!
Hi love! 🥰 Thank you so much for your request, I really appreciate it! I’m sorry it took me quite a while to finish this... I’m also sorry if they’re all repetitive! I hope you like it though! 🥺
--------------------------------------------------------
Seungsik:
i find it quite hard to figure this guy out tbh
obviously he is super kind and sweet, but i have no clue how he would react with his best friend confessing
as a friend he is  reliable, honest and very supportive
he is just a great shoulder to cry on
not someone to belittle you or not taking your worries serious
so obviously you fall for him... he is your rock
although he is the oldest and knows a bit about love
i think he would ignore every single signal you send him
like he would be absolutely oblivious and have no clue about your feelings
your confessions? he thinks they are a crazy prank you pull on him
and that really frustrates you... it also hurts ngl
so you decided to take a step back and try to get your feelings under control
but to no avail
Byungchan, the only one of the bunch who is able to tell you’re in love with their leader, tries his best to help you through this heartbreak and somehow manages to distract you with his funny antics
when Seungsik notices you coming over to the dorm less and less and Byungchan always talking about you... he starts to feel weird
maybe jealousy? he really doesn’t know
so he confronts you one day, as he is not one to get into conflicts with his children, and he does that in a very calm and mature manner
no screaming or shouting, just two grown-ups having a serious talk
again, you tell him;
“Seungsik, I. Am. In. Love. With. You! Can you finally be a grown-up about it and stop laughing at my face, accusing me of ‘pranking’ you?!”
he would be soooo taken aback cause
you love him? for real? tf? when did that happen?
but after the initial shock, he is quite relieved 
“I thought you were dating Byungchan... you almost broke my heart.”
you slap his shoulder lightly, crossing your arms and pouting
“you broke my heart first with you constant rejection!”
I’m sorry... but if you would let me, I would love to be your boyfriend. Cause I love you too.”
Seungwoo:
this baby would be SO confused
you constantly want to talk to him in private and then just say “i love you”
he will always reply with an “i love you too” and a big smile on his face
that you are actually confessing... well he really doesn’t get it
he thinks it’s just your way of platonically saying that you love him
and you might be too shy to say that in front of the guys
soooo yeah, he thinks you’re just being his great friend, making him feel loved
he obviously appreciates it and does not understand why these private conversations always seem to ruin your mood
Hanse is the one who kinda notices your sour mood whenever you had a talk with his bro
so of course he confronts you about it and you tell him the whole story
if anyone knows Seungwoo, it’s definitely the boys
and Hanse has actually great advice for you... or so you thought
“Seungwoo is VERY oblivious. Sadly, you will have to think of a grand gesture, or else he will just think of it of something friendly and platonic. Even if you would surprise him naked on a bed of roses... he would still be confused and not get that you’re in love with him.”
how are you supposed to do this? what kind of gesture is grand enough?
Hanse is no help in coming up with an actual plan, don’t get your hopes up
therefore you just go with the flow and ask yourself “what feels right?”
food is apparently the key to the heart, so you settle on a romantic picnic, at night!
Seungwoo is obviously surprised with how secretive you act and what brings you to the park at night
but when you sit him down and tell him sincerely about your plan and what made you do all of this
he is speechless
mind: blown
he did not see that coming
but after the initial shock has set in, he surprises you with a big smooch
“I love you too. Romantically as in my girlfriend.”
Chan:
he would know
and it wouldn’t be a secret that he knows
you have talked to him about it plenty of times
but when he explained that he doesn’t want a relationship just yet, you understood
putting labels on what you guys have, is making him anxious
he knows he can’t be there like a boyfriend should
so knowing he isn’t your boyfriend, pressured him a lot less
you promised you would wait until he was ready and that’s what you did
sometimes it got really frustrating and you tried to distract yourself by hanging out with Seungsik
he is such calm and gentle guy, not hyper like the rest (minus Hanse)
so most of your days are now spend with the leader, obviously very friendly dates, you are not looking for another guy to mess with your feelings
Chan of course noticed how you hung out more with his member than with him
and suddenly he started to fear losing you
because let’s be real, Seungsik is beautiful and he has a great personality
Chan then looked for Sejun and asked him for advice
he feels stupid - how can he say he isn’t ready for a relationship and then be jealous of you hanging out with other guys?
that is not fair on you at all
“channie! you are in love. we know, i know, everyone knows. why are you like that? go and get your lady, please!”
and although he wanted nothing more than to punch Sejun in the face, he decides to finally make your guys’ relationship official
when you arrive at the dorm, it’s show time
“Hey... I don’t wanna beat around the bush... I’m ready.”
“Ready for?”
“Ready to be your boyfriend.”
“What if I’m not ready to be your girlfriend?”
“Don’t mess with my feelings.”
“Joke, let’s make out.”
“I already regret it.... but hey, I love you.”
Sejun:
soooo you guys are a very special pair of friends
you guys have been inseparable since birth
but along the way, you guys decided to become friends with benefits
the rule: no catching feelings
and it worked out fine
until you kinda developed a small tiny crush on the beautiful man
but obviously this is a secret - you don’t want this arrangement to end
Sejun has also developed feelings but obviously you are not aware of that either
both of you are quite oblivious 
due to your guys’ arrangement, you never got your hopes up
but although Sejun fulfilled your needs, you still craved for love
and Chan was seemingly offering you that kind of love
you aren’t sure about that yet, but he has asked you out on a coffee run (date)
when Sejun found out, he was furious
because yes, you aren’t his girlfriend and no one knows you guys are sleeping with each other...
BUT how dare Chan make a move on his bestie?
and love of his life... tf?
after your date with Chan, which was so beautiful
you got a message from Sejun
typical booty call
kinda sad and hurt, you still walk towards the boys’ dorm
Chan is quite surprised to see you yet again but doesn’t ask too many questions
Sejun is already in his room, more than ready to get right into the chill part of netflix and chill
this time it feels different though
as if he is more caring
he handles you a lot gentler than usual
and is constantly asking if you’re okay
not that he usually isn’t caring but he is not as aware of your feelings during the process
after you guys are finished, he pulls you super close
also very unusual
after a while just cuddling, he finally speaks up
“I think I’m ready.”
“For what?”
“To go a step further.”
“... you wanna try anal?”
“WHAT?! NO!!! I wanna date you, you dumb idiot.”
“Okay, works fine by me. I wanna date you too.”
“Great, now shut up and kiss me.”
Hanse:
he is so in love with you
absolutely head over heels in love
but he does not dare to say a word
to him, he is bad news and you definitely deserve better than him
but that’s bullshit cause Hanse is god-like
his confidence hits an all time low when it comes to you
with you it’s different
when he is with you he feels loved, he loves himself and he just enjoys your presence
Hanse knows whenever he hangs out with you, there is no judgement and he can be himself
so obviously he is in love with you, how could he not?
but there was Sejun, the attractive hulk
Hanse loves his friend but the way you look at him and how you always seem to hag out with him, makes Hanse feel sick
he isn’t one to be jealous though
you deserve all the love and happiness
even if he isn’t the reason for it
for you, Hanse was never more than a friend
but nowadays, the way he carries himself, you do kinda feel attracted towards him
and as Sejun is a naturally flirty guy, you go to him and ask him if he has noticed anything different about Hanse and how you can try and steal his heart
unfortunately Hanse overhears your conversation
and let me tell you
HE IS SO HAPPY
he can’t get rid of the smile on his face
but he doesn’t say anything and walks to his room, happily swinging his hips
after your talk with Sejun, you decide to go home but not before saying by to Hanse
as you walk into his room, he immediately pulls you into a tight hug
“I love you so much. I heard everything you said to Sejun and I can’t even put into words how happy I am. I love you, so fucking much, please let me be your boyfriend.”
“I want nothing more than for you to be my boyfriend. I love you too Hanse.”
Byungchan:
i feel like it’s a regular occurrence for you guys to prank each other
so obviously when you tell him you love him more than a friend, he bursts out laughing and asks you where you hid your camera
this is obviously very frustrating
how on earth are you supposed to tell him about your feelings in a serious setting, when nothing you guys ever do is serious?
after various tries, you decide to give up 
you cannot waste your time when he clearly isn’t that interested in you
so you distance yourself and spend more time with Subin
Subin is quite the opposite of Byungchan
he is way calmer and more relaxed than your best friend
it’s a nice change
Byungchan notices how you start watching YouTube videos with Subin instead of him
which he doesn’t care about at first, cause you are allowed to have other friends too!
but when all you ever do is hanging out with baby Subin... he feels horrible
and he gets mad
and he acts on impulse
he is usually very peaceful an solves arguments ina calm manner
but when he sees Subin, he immediately starts to accuse the boy of stealing you from him
Subin is take aback at first but then turns furious as well cause he is well aware of your feelings for the lanky giant
“If you weren’t an idiot that constantly reject her, you wouldn’t need to cause such drama!”
“What do you mean? I am not rejecting her?”
“But you are! She is so in love with you and all you ever do is laugh in her face! Imagine how she feels.”
Byungchan is shook
so he immediately calls you and arranges a meeting
all this time you confessed you were actually serious?
he feels so horrible
he never meant to put you through all of this
before you can even greet him, he smashes his lips against yours and kisses you as if his life depended on it
“Woah, what was that channie?”
“I love you. And I know you love me too. I’m so sorry it took me so long to realise!”
“I love you too. I’m so glad you finally know.”
Subin:
i’m so soft for Subin
he is such a cutie
he is very young, so I think he might not really know that he is feeling butterflies in his stomach and not just the food he is digesting 
telling his hyungs about how he feels weird around you nowadays and them being like: our baby is in love!, has him confused
is he really in love?
you bet he googles his “symptoms” to see, what the internet says about all of this
and good news: all the sites tell him, he is indeed in love (with some expectations but he trusts his hyungs)
but how is he supposed to tell you?
to him you are this unreachable goddess he will never be good enough for
he is a baby, there are more mature guys out there that are far better for you than him
especially Chan
he is also your friend, you guys get along so well
and while Subin is happy you love his friends as much as he does
it breaks his heart little by little every time he sees you with his favorite hyung
little does he know that Chan knows how in love he is with you
it’s not like Sbin tries to be subtle at all
but you are so focused on your friendship, you don’t realise all the little things
so one day Chan sits you down and asks you a bunch of stupid questions
“Don’t you think our Subinie is super sexy nowadays?”
“He is definitely boyfriend material.”
“I would love you two to date!”
Subin walks into the dorm and overhears you guys
he is so embarrassed 
so he storms in and drags you into his room with no words spoken
“what was this all about?”
you ask confused
“I think I might be in love with you.”
Subin stutters, cheeks and ears tinted red
you smile softly and press a sweet kiss to his pouty lips
“good thing i might be in love with you too.”
“WHAT?! FOR REAL?”
“yes... so what do you say? should we date?”
“uhm... I would love to! Yes!”

Family Prayer
Tumblr media
Author: @mega-aulover​
Prompt: Buttercup and Diwali are not things that go together. So even though Katniss dosen't like him much, she and Peeta try to make things easier for Buttercup on that day. [submitted by @everlurked​]
Rating: Fluffy G
Author’s Note: This is a story about Diwali and wouldn’t have been possible without @cadsingh77​ who spent weeks allowing me to ask all sorts of questions about Diwali and what it means to her. I patterned it on her descriptions. She read it, as well, to make sure there were no cultural faux pas. I apologize if there is anything amiss. Also, I’m remiss if I do not mention @norbertsmom​ who at the eleventh hour betaed this story. She’s my rock my bestie, and I would be nothing without her.
__________
Peeta glanced at his suit in the closet. His hands shook. 
In a few hours he was going to meet the family of the love of his life. 
He looked at the phone in his hands. He was lying in bed researching everything Diwali. His girlfriend Katniss had gone over the topic. She explained that just as sunset happens an elaborate puja, a prayer ceremony is done in a temple to begin the holiday. But to most Trinidadians or Trinis, as she called herself, like her family, they said little personal prayers in front of Laxmi, Saraswati and Ganesh and then they would light the diyas, little clay lamps, that they were going to placed in all of the rooms of the house. 
Katniss made it all sound so simple. Diwali was a celebration of light. A victory over darkness. A day to wear new clothing, beautiful jewelry, sing, dance, pray, and light diyas. Katniss said any other guests would arrive after the prayers and they would have a ton of food and everyone would eat and hang out, kids would light sparklers, and there would be singing and dancing too. 
Curious, Peeta watched every Bollywood movie on Netflix. Movies, however, never really explained everything. He put the phone down. He had to  be honest with himself; Katniss’ assurances aside, he was a fish out of water no matter what he did. He was going to meet the most important people in Katniss’s life, her family.
In contrast, his parents were Dan and Cindy from Port Jefferson, Long Island. They owned a bakery near the ferry. They were dull people, they were like the parents of Ian Miller from My Big Fat Greek Wedding. But a lot colder and more dysfunctional, dressed in tans and beiges. Peeta constantly questioned why they would own a bakery that matched the color of bland. They never veered from the menu. Never introduced a new seasonal baked good. Peeta was stuck in that rut until he met Katniss and his entire world changed and color was introduced into his life.
Katniss was the electric jolt that kickstarted his dull heart to life. 
The first time he tasted roti, the buttery tasting flat bread he literally cried. 
From the pictures that Katniss shared of her family, he could tell they were a riot of awesomeness. 
Katniss and her parents hailed from Trinidad and Tobago. Her family moved to Long Island from Germany. Her father was an engineer and physicist. He worked at the superconductor in Germany and then came to Long Island so that he could work on a project at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Her mother worked at Stony Brook University. She ran the nursing department. 
Peeta and Katniss both attended Stony Brook University. He was on his way to a yoga class and she was in her Pink boxing class. From the glass covered room Peeta watched her hit the punching bag like Joe Fraser, and he was a goner. Peeta had a thing for strong women. His first middle school girlfriend bossed him and made him carry her books to and from class and he was a sucker for her, but she broke his heart. She told him she was only using him to get to his older brother Ryan. Peeta battled so much darkness in his life and what he needed was to chase the darkness away and to let the light into his heart. But he couldn’t deny he liked strong women. 
There was something about a strong alpha woman who knew how to get things done, unlike his mother who was passive aggressive, and banged the pots in the kitchen and slammed refrigerator doors. 
He sighed as he worried about tomorrow. He googled Diwali’s greetings and butchered the language as he tried to speak in Hindi. 
Peeta sighed heavily.
Katniss’s mother invited him over the phone. She wanted him to come over before the prayers began. It was an honor because he was Katniss’ boyfriend, someone she chose despite her father trying to get her to date the son of a friend of his. Katniss put her figurative foot down and claimed she was dating Peeta. Her father didn’t want to meet him, but he knew of him. 
So the pressure was on to be perfect. He didn’t want to say or do the wrong thing, especially in front of her family. His hands shook, this was important. He wanted to make a good impression on Katniss’ family, even if her father didn’t like him or the idea of him. Peeta wanted them to like him because, truth be told, his own family didn’t like him. 
Peeta loved his family, but ever since he was little, he knew he didn’t fit into the landscape of his family. He was labeled as the emotional one. He was too irreverent for them. Peeta liked color. He loved to paint. He enjoyed the change in seasons where his family loved one season, summer, because they generated the most money then. 
His family liked one or two flavors. Peeta loved all flavors, spicy ones, bold ones, subtle ones. They hated that he was always pushing to change the menu at the bakery. His childhood room was always the one his parents never showed off, because as a teen he painted the walls of his room every shade of orange. Peeta knew they sighed in relief when he decided to stay in the dorms at Stony Brook. His football scholarship allowed him to have that opportunity. He trained hard, studied hard, and loved hard. 
“Katniss,” her name escaped his lips like fervent prayer and a wish. He loved her, was consumed by her, and he was so overly happy that she invited him to meet her family for Diwali. And now he had so much pent up energy he couldn’t sleep. 
His teammates made fun of him, because he got a goofy lopsided I-got-my-hippopotamus-at-Christmas type grin, whenever Peeta thought of Katniss. He closed his eyes picturing her olive skin, thick straight dark hair braided into a rope, small pert nose, and silvery eyes that were breathtaking. Though it wasn’t her physical parts that made him fall in love. It was the woman who lay beneath the surface.
What made him sit up and take notice of Katniss after he saw her box, and he was out of the yoga room, was that there was a blonde girl at the gym working out. There were these idiots guys making fun of her, calling that poor girl fat, just because she was full figured. Katniss walked straight up to the guys and gave them a scowl full of fire and brimstone, called the girl hot and told her that if she were gay she’d do her in an instant. Then she told the guys that they could jackknife themselves off the roof of the building. Peeta had never seen anything sexier in his life. Katniss was full of fire and she was resplendent more so than the sun. 
His phone buzzed drawing him away from his memories as the message came in.
KATNISS: Why are you still up?
Peeta grinned, his phone betrayed him. In some phones a little dot showed up next to the person when they were on their phone. Katniss must have noticed. 
PEETA: Stalk much.
KATNISS: LOL
Peeta could see those three little dots moving as she wrote a reply. 
For the most part Katniss wasn’t a talker. Unless she was passionate about the topic and then she was a chatterbox.
KATNISS: FUNNY. Seriously, tomorrow is going to be a long day. You need to sleep.
PEETA: Because tomorrow I am going to meet your family.
Peeta could see her rolling her eyes even through the phone.
KATNISS: You don’t have to be nervous. 
PEETA: If you tell me all I have to do is be myself, I swear I am going to come dressed as Buddy the Elf.
KATNISS: Dork.
PEETA: Yes, but I’m your dork.
KATNISS: They’re going to love you.
Peeta sighed. 
PEETA: This is important. I want to make a good impression. Your family is important to you and given that my family…
Peeta sighed. He’d brought Katniss to the bakery to meet his family because they didn’t have time for him. His father was pleasant. His mother, however, spoke loudly and slowly as if Katniss didn’t speak English. Katniss spoke various languages and was extremely intelligent. Her mother wanted her to be a doctor, but Katniss had a passion for the environment. Her major was environmental studies, with a minor in geology. She was brilliant and he felt like the dumb jock.
KATNISS: Your family is fine, well except for Ryan. Someone needs to examine him.
Peeta chuckled. His brother Rye stared at Katniss as if she was Christmas, Easter, and summer vacation all rolled up into one. He then proceeded to flirt with Katniss, by using every campy movie line known to mankind. In typical Rye fashion because he’d done it before to their other brother Lyle. Unfortunately in that instance the girl in question dumped Lyle to go out with Rye. 
He sighed. That was his dysfunctional family. Family gatherings were uncomfortable events. They weren’t exactly nice to one another.
PEETA: I have no excuse for my brother.
Peeta decided to follow his text with a self deprecating joke. A truth, his family thought him the odd one in the family. 
PEETA: But Ryan isn’t the bad apple. I’m not sure you know this, but I am the black sheep of the family.
KATNISS: You mean the sexy one.
A grin spread on his face at her compliment. 
Katniss’ family was conservative, and by extent, so was Katniss. He respected her boundaries and her values.  Family was everything to her and he loved her because of it, Katniss would lay her life on the line for her family. 
PEETA: Have I told you today how much I love you.
KATNISS: No, but I do love to hear you say it.
Peeta pressed the little microphone and recorded his voice, which sounded rougher to his ears than normal.
PEETA: (a voice email) I love you Katniss. I love your mind. I love your kindness. I love how you always talk about your sister Prim. I love the way you adore your dad. I love the way you look up to your mother. I think you are the most beautiful soul. And I am nervous because if you are wonderful, then your family has to be just as great.
He meant every word. 
They’d been dating for the last few months, but they’d been friends for two years. They weren’t easy years because of their schedules in school and the fact that her father had a mild heart attack right after they met. Peeta put himself in the friend zone because that’s what Katniss needed. He didn’t want her to feel pressure to feel romantic toward him when her dad, the most important man in her life, was ill. 
In the end, the bonds of friendship grew to a love so sweet and pure, that it shined out of her silver eyes. The first time she realized the love she held for him was more than friendship left him breathless, like stepping into a world filled with brilliant colors, light and joy. 
KATNISS: (a voice email) I love you too.
Her voice was breathy and filled with her heartfelt emotion.
Peeta couldn’t help but sigh contentedly.
KATNISS: Now as for tomorrow, don’t worry. When they see what a great guy you are, they will love you.
Peeta sighed.
KATNISS: NOW GO TO SLEEP, MELLARK!
PEETA:  Yes ma’am.
He grinned and would have followed her directions, but instead he stood from his bed and went into his suite kitchen. He needed to bake. It was the only thing he knew that would calm him down. He decided to make chocolate using the vegetarian items he purchased in the store. Come the morning he would make the Laddoos he planned to bring with him. In Hindi they were called Laddu but in Trinidad they were known as Laddoo.
Making the chocolate eased his nerves, so he actually got some sleep. In the morning, he showered and set to work on making the Laddoos. By three o’clock he was done, and all he had to do was wrap up the presents. Taking a red ribbon, he tied each box the way he’d done so many times at the bakery. 
His suitemates were gone. No doubt causing trouble somewhere on campus, which gave Peeta the time he needed to get ready. He took out his new suit. Even though Katniss told him he could wear a nice pair of slacks and shirt, Peeta bought a suit that was on sale for the special occasion. 
Taking a deep breath he took the small presents he had for her family. They weren’t necessary, but he wanted to make a good impression. He gathered up the Laddoos, the chocolate, the flowers - marigolds he sourced at the local home depot, and the paintings he made of her family made from the memory of the pictures she’d shown him. 
He drove, heading to the Everdeen home in Mount Sinai. The cottage-like house looked like something out of a movie or TV show: warm, inviting, like a real home, one filled with love, and not pretend.
As he walked up, he could hear laughter, genuine laughter, followed by singing and joy. Running a hand through his blond wavy locks he took a deep breath. “Okay Mellark, just be yourself,” he whispered, as he stood in front of the door.  
He raised his hand to knock on the door and his breath caught at the man standing there looking more like a navy seal instead of a physicist. This was Katniss’ dad. His chrome eyes were hard and they took him apart, much the way a defensive end could read a play and pick it apart while holding their defense line.  
“Happy Diwali.” Peeta tried to say confidently but his voice cracked. He could feel himself sweating.
Her father raised an eyebrow. “You are Peeta Mellark.”
Peeta nodded.
“Rahul!” A statuesque woman with blonde hair and pale blue eyes swatted Katniss’ father’s arm. He watched her sneak around him, dressed in a traditional red sari with gold thread. “Please behave.” Mrs. Everdeen quietly gave her husband a look. Her golden bangles clinked as she placed her hand dramatically on her hip. Peeta was glad Katniss had gone over the different fashions. He studied each one because he would do anything for Katniss. 
Peeta watched as her father’s hard analytical eyes softened the moment he beheld Katniss’ mother. Peeta could see how Katniss’ parents were a unit of one. They were in love and either one would fight the shadows and all of the evil in the world for their other half.  “Anjali.”
“I am Katniss’ mother, this is her father,” her pale eyes sparkled. “Please come in, we were waiting for your arrival. Come in,” she ushered him.
The home was two stories, to the left a halfway with rooms, to the right a living room, dining area, and a den to the far back. The house was decorated with warm rich colors, but everything was tied around the family, as pictures dotted the walls. There were lights everywhere hanging from the walls, the clay diya’s sat on the mantel.  Peeta stood in front of a picture of Katniss on her father’s shoulders, her twin braids flowing, her eyes crinkled in pure happiness. 
“Ohhhh you’re cute,” a younger, but deeper voice than Katniss’ said with impish mischief. 
Primrose took after Katniss’ mother, with the flaxen hair and the pale blue eyes.  Katniss explained that her mother was of British descent, while her father’s family, although sporting a European name, was from India. His great-grandparents came to Trinidad, fell in love with the island and stayed. 
Her mother walked away from her very wealthy family back in Trinidad to marry Katniss’ father. It was a little like they were the original Romeo and Julliet. 
His parents got together because his dad knocked up his mom.
“Primrose!” Mrs. Everdeen admonished. 
“What,” Prim said. Her pale blue eyes were inquisitive as she walked around him. The way Katniss talked about her sister, Peeta had expected a little kid, but Prim was as tall as he was. Her loose  pajama-like trousers that narrowed at her ankles, called shalwar, swooshed around as she made her round. Her red kameez, a flowing tunic with intricate gold patterns reminded Peeta of the pattern Mrs. Everdeen wore on her sari.
Prim was everything Katniss was not. She was a bold bright bubbly girl, who at this moment was making sure he was the real deal and not some mindless jerk. He stood, letting her because it was important that her family liked him. He wanted to be accepted. He felt his face flame up under the scrutiny. 
“I understand why my boring sister is constantly sighing.”
Peeta grinned, then he said, “Oh these are for you.” He gave them the presents. The flowers, the chocolate, and the sweetened chickpea Laddoos he made by hand for them.
“Oh these are fragrant, where did you purchase them?”
“He made them.” The soft voice that came behind him made his heart rate triple.
Peeta turned around and there stood Katniss wearing an emerald green lenghas. She had explained what it looked like, but at this moment, his brain that was always filled with words was momentarily empty, vanquished by her beauty. He swallowed, mouth slightly ajar. His eyes darted from the perfection of her face with those silvery eyes that captivated him, and the peek of dark hair that was hidden by the sari. 
Katniss held a shiny brass plate, she called a Tarrier, but in Hindi it was known as a Thali, containing coconut, almonds, and other sweets. Katniss told him the plate belonged to her great-grandmother Veronica. When her mother married her father, her great-grandmother gave it to her insisting it should go to her first born. He swore for a second he could see a miniature Katniss with his eyes staring up at him and holding the Tarrier. 
“He made them?” Primrose asked, Peeta could hear the intense curiosity in her sister’s voice. 
“His family are bakers, and Peeta is an amazing cook.”
“Really,” her father said, and his voice, the way he said that one word snapped Peeta out of his hazy fog. 
“Ah,” he nervously said. “I made her cheese buns,” Peeta felt the heat rising from his neck and caused those red splotches that his brothers made fun of. 
“Cheese buns,” her father repeated. 
“When you were in the hospital, daddy,” her eyes did not hide the pain of recalling those days. “Peeta noticed I wasn’t eating and cajoled me into eating cheese buns,” Katniss words were so soft. “He was the friend I leaned on for support when…” her voice trailed.
Peeta watched her father’s face take a look of adoring tenderness at his eldest, and when his eyes turned to Peeta they weren’t as frosty as they had been. 
“He even took me to temple to pray,” Katniss whispered.
“In Selden?” 
“Yes, daddy,” Katniss quietly said.
“Rahul,” Katniss’ mother chided. She cupped his cheeks, “Such a nice young man. Did you make the chocolate as well?” 
Peeta nodded, his eyes went back to her father. He couldn’t mess this up. 
Her mother smiled serenely, then her eyes lit with happiness as if she made a startling connection. “Oh! Pundit Sharma was right; they were destined in the stars.”
“Star crossed lovers just like you and mom,” Prim said. 
Her father cut his eyes away. 
“Oh my, these chocolates….” Prim moaned. 
“Primrose!” Her mother admonished. 
“What, he said they were for us,” Prim shrugged, plopping a chocolate in her mouth. “I’d say he’s golden. So what does a cheese bun taste like?” 
“Primrose, really, must you think only of your stomach?” Katniss shook her head. 
“Girls,” their father said in a stern tone of voice. “It’s near sunset. Upstairs with the lot of you. I swear corralling a dozen baby ducks would be easier.” 
The women headed upstairs. Peeta wasn’t sure, but her father swept a hand for him to follow him upstairs.
Peeta wasn’t sure what he was expecting, hopefully like something out of Khabi Kushi Khabi Gham. They had a small altar where he watched all of the women present the offerings and began to bow their heads. He stood behind quietly observing, but when Katniss began to pray it was like a song and her words that he didn’t understand wrapped around his heart and his lashes fluttered closed and a single tear fell down his face. Song after song her voice combined with that of her father, her mother and sister caused him to realize just how much he wanted to be part of this family, to be loved and accepted. 
He too prayed for a family to want him, to be needed. 
Peeta was so wrapped up in the moment when it was over he opened his eyes to find her mother standing before him with trembling lips, and watery blue eyes.
“Bend down son,” her father said with warmth in his voice. “She’s going to honor you by putting the sindoor on your forehead.” He pointed to his forehead, though his eyes had completely lost the frost. They were filled with admiration and the same warmth he had in his voice. Her father looked at Katniss and nodded as if giving her his blessings. 
Unsure if what he had just seen was real, his eyes went to Katniss,  but Prim said, “Go ahead Peeta, my father has just fallen for you too.” Her voice squeaked with that enthusiasm only a teenager could have. She wiped the tears from her face as well. 
Peeta bent down slightly. Mrs. Everdeen’s hand slipped to the Tarrier and with her ring finger she pressed it into the red dust Katniss’ father called sindoor.
The press of her finger was light. “When my daughter marries you. You will sprinkle this sindor over the part in her hair to symbolize her marriage to you.”
Peeta’s eyes flew to her father who nodded. “Welcome to the family son.” He clasped his back and said. “Now let’s go eat. I’m starving.”
Peeta couldn’t help but grin. He gazed at Katniss who came to him, her smile shy. He was going to follow them, but katniss put her hand on his, then stepped up and placed a small peck on his cheek. Then winked sassily. “I told you they would love you.” 
And like that, his prayers were answered; he now had a family. 
Years later, when he stood in the same position watching his little girl singing the puja, holding the brass tarrier, alongside Katniss. Just as in that memory from years ago he listened to Katniss voice blend with their daughter. Their voices blended in with his father-in-law Rahul, Primrose and her soon to be fiancé. Peeta was grateful that his prayers were answered, the darkness was swept away and light filled his soul.  And he was granted the family he always wanted.

School 2017 Episode 9
First, let me tell you that I wanted to review this show episode per episode from day one but life has been really busy lately, so I choose not to. But it turns out School 2017 gets better and better each week and it has all the elements to call it “my kind of crack”. I’m no less busy but who cares when this show is giving me life?! Let’s move on to what matters, get ready because I have a lot to say:
What the fudge did Hee-chan do to Bo-ra last year? Why isn’t she talking? And what exactly did Dae-hwi cover up? It’s clear Hee-chan’s violent nature is a result of the pressure his family puts on him to excel at school and his feeling of entitlement come from the fact he never suffered the consequences of his actions, protected by his mother or -as we find out today- Dae-hwi himself. I’m not trying to excuse him for the things he has done, keeps doing and probably will do in the next episode, but I guess the show has made it possible to see where he’s coming from and why he’s like this. The fact he has no real support system in his friends (they’re totally the ones spreading the rumors in order for him to do badly in the finals) is also a factor of what I believe will be his debacle. I don’t know if in the next few episodes he will be able to redeem himself but I do hope he suffers a take down. His mother too. Mainly, I’m hoping Bo-ra speaks up because it would meant a lot of character growth for her. She has isolated herself thanks to an abusive ex boyfriend, Dae-hwi’s wrongdoings and a teacher who betrayed her trust. But today’s flashback gave me hope that perhaps she will be able to recover that spark that made call Hee-chan on his behavior and dump his ass.
I feel the rest of the episodes in the show will be more about Dae-hwi correcting all the the things he has done wrong in the past year since his friend died. I have to give credit to the show because at the beginning Dae-hwi seemed like the perfect put together, good student, handsome boy next door, and even when Tae-woon was constantly warning us about his “true nature”, I couldn’t quite grasp why. The first time I saw what Tae-woon was talking about was when Dae-hwi assessed -outside the coffeeshop- that his former friend has feelings for Eun-ho and throw it in his face like a threat, right after she told him she had protected him by not saying anything about the stolen exam. From then on the show has properly develop this character for what he truly is: a misguided and lonely boy, with no real support from his family, spinning out of control. And today’s episode showed us a little more on just how far Dae-hwi was actually capable to go in order to get ahead. I’m a little afraid to find out what he has been covering up for the rich kids, I don’t believe it’s only Hee-chan he has dirt on, but at the same time I feel expectant of what he could do with all that. While Tae-woon has been running around school “outing” the corrupt ways of the faculty and students, it’s really Dae-hwi the one who has the information to actually change something.
As for their broken bromance, nothing will change until Dae-hwi is willing to let go of his need of survival. Don’t get me wrong, in a way I’m proud of him for all his hard work but it’s the way he has achieved that perfect school record that taints his character, when I can see that at his core he’s a good kid. It’s the same reason why he feels like he can’t keep on dating Nam-joo. When he found out the truth about her, he wasn’t disappointed or hurt because she lied to him -he understands and knows her reasons- but he realized a big part of the attraction was because he believed her to be rich. Which of course hit right into all of Nam-joo’s insecurities and gave her even more misguided reasons to feel like she’s less or ashamed because her father is a taxi driver, when in reality she should be proud that he’s a decent and hardworking man, trying to make a living for his family and doting on her like the sun rises and sets with her. Nam-joo has been so far a small character but I want to see more of her storyline. This lie is bound to be exposed one way or another.
Personally, I think Dae-hwi and Nam-joo really like each other and now that there’s no longer a wall of lies between them, I hope they can find a way to patch things up. They never really got the chance to be themselves around each other or actually enjoy their romance.
As for the other characters like Sarang, guitar boy Kyung-woo, and precious soul Byung-goo, I hope they get more storyline in the next few episodes. I would love to see them team up with Tae-woon and Eun-ho.
Speaking of which... I have sold my soul to this couple. I love the relationships that are based on friendship and mutual understanding of each other, which is why Tae-woon and Eun-ho keep on giving me all the feels week after week. Yes, they are incredibly cute together and their chemistry is undeniable but one of my favorite things about them is that they are their own person, apart from how they are together. Can I say they are a couple? Unofficially, at least. Although I’m pretty sure it was made official today in a low-key way when Tae-woon declared he will do whatever he felt like it or when he made it clear to Hee-chan why he was meddling in her business; and Eun-ho gave him the thumps up with a knowing look and smile at the school’s corridor. These two.
Tae-woon isn’t perfect and I love him even more because of it. It’s been a pleasure to see him work through his grief over the loss of his friend with the help of Eun-ho, making it possible for him to actually start caring for others and meddle once again into Dae-hwi’s life. The thing about Tae-woon is that he seems to have no filter and a bad temper, this makes his reconciliation with his bestie a lot harder than it should be. I wish they could have a proper talk, one where they are not staring daggers into each other and actually speak about what happened a year ago. Why aren’t they friends anymore? Did they gradually come apart or did they really just throw punches at each other the minute Joon-ki was no longer in the picture? Did Tae-woon ever talk about the accident with Dae-hwi? Or about what his father had done?
Of course, that same no filter and bad temper does wonders when he goes Alpha Man in order to protect his lady’s honor or when he dotes and worries about Eun-ho. He was behaving like such an Oppa today, it got me all giddy. I love it when he becomes Tae-Swoon, which it’s something that comes natural for him when he is around Eun-ho. Yeah, floor meet Tae-Swoon.
Hee-chan and his mother clearly have plans for Eun-ho but they are very wrong if they think she has no support. This is what I worry about on this subject: whatever Tae-woon does in order to protect Eun-ho, his father won’t let him take the fault for anything. So, what if his father tries to do something similar as to what he did with Joon-ki and his family but with Eun-ho’s? Maybe this will be a breaking point for Dad and Tae-woon. In the last two episodes, Dad seemed to have been trying with his son and I grasped that maybe he’s just rough around the edges; that he had to raise Tae-woon by himself and had no-one who could help him see another way of doing things. I hope these two can work things out too because they are adorable and funny.
As for Eun-ho, aka Wonder Smile, I love her to pieces. She is caring, sweet and a truly happy kid who loves her friends and family, who genuinely tries to get along with everyone and is willing to work really hard to achieve her dream. She’s everything the rich kids aren’t, even when they had a hundred more opportunities and chances than her to achieve what they want. She’s also everything that Dae-hwi isn’t thanks to the lack of parent guidance. Eun-ho’s family is key to understand the way she is. Dad, Mom and even Oppa adore her and support her, even when they might not have a dime for her to assist extra classes, but the fact that she has grown to be such a good person shows that money isn’t everything. That it doesn’t make you a better person or student.
Tomorrow, Eun-ho will be going against Hee-chan and I know she will thrive, but I hope that people (apart from her family and Tae-woon) will come through for her like she has done for everyone else.

@l-tay said: Would you write an AU where Jeff is a nerd and Y/N is a jock or just a really popular girl who never dates or hooks up with everyone? Tony and Clay discourage Jeff from asking you out, but he does it anyway. All your friends try to humiliate him, but Y/N surprises everyone by accepting his offer and admitting that she's had a crush on him for years, but had been nervous to ask him out.
Tumblr media
NERD!JEFF X READER
Jeff POV
"Why do we even have boxing equipment in the gym on school grounds?" Clay frowns. "I thought the school looked down upon physical violence?"
Tony shrugs. "It's great for fitness."
"I swear on my collection of comics, Jensen," Jeff mumbles, "that if you get this lovely sight taken away from me, I will beat you to death with your bike." The sight in question is Y/N, clad in a sports bra and leggings with her feet constantly moving as she throws punches, elbows and kicks at a swinging punching bag. Her usual group of friends are crowded around, some getting in a quick workout of their own while others just lounge around to kill some time. "Appreciate the heavenly sight, Clay, or just go away so I can ogle in peace."
"I don't see why you just don't ask her out," he mumbles.
Jeff startles, staring at Clay as if that was the best thing he's said all day and Tony scoffs. "Uh. No." Both boys then stare at Tony's look of disbelief, the tattooed boy shaking his head in amusement. "You're talking about Y/N, Jensen. A girl like her will eat Jeffy-boy alive. And not in the fun way either."
"What? She's not that bad!" Jeff quickly defends while Clay thinks it over.
"Yeah. She probably will," Clay then agrees with Tony.
"No!" Jeff adamantly refuses. "No, no, no. Y/N isn't like her friends. I've talked to her.. well, almost talked to her one day," he amends while fondly staring at her as she finishes her workout and accepts a towel from her friend, "and she's not as mean as the others. She even smiled at me one time!"
"Dude," Clay chuckles. "Just.. no. You're the guy who stays up late for a new comic book's release or who marathons the Star Wars and Lord of the Rings films for fun."
"And Y/N is the girl who hangs out with the sporty, asshole types. I mean, just look at her. Monty's all over her right now." Tony muses.
Jeff watches on, stomach unsettled as he watches Montgomery de la Cruz sling an arm around Y/N's shoulders and leans his temple against hers. His lips pull down into a frown as Montgomery then meets his gaze, wiggling his fingers in a mocking greeting. But a little bit of hope sparks in his chest as Y/N shrugs off his arm, elbowing him in the process before briefly meeting Jeff's own gaze with a sheepish smile.
"She totally wants me. I'm going to ask her out."
"What? No," Clay laughs.
And Tony chokes on his water. "How the hell did you suddenly come to that conclusion?" He asks, in awe that his friend could be so bold. "Atkins, don't!" He then urges, but it's too late. 
Jeff's already off his bench and making his way towards Y/N.
Y/N POV
Sweat pouring down your face and fists deliciously sore beneath your gloves, you decide to call it quits. All around you, your friends are either getting their own workout in or are just lazing about while you work.
From her position sitting cross-legged on the floor, Sheri offers you a water bottle and you accept it with a tired smile. Monty then tosses you a small towel and you work on wiping the sweat from your face and neck.
"Well would you look at that," Monty suddenly muses. "Ittle Attikins is staring again."
You're kind of grateful for your rigorous workout as you chance a glance out of the side of your eye, the physical activity easily masking the real reason your cheeks are heating up. Jeffrey Atkins, the boy whose filled out quite nicely over the years (even if he enjoys some rather childish forms of entertainment, at least it's childish in the eyes of other people), has been on your mind these last few months. You've noticed his staring because you've been staring right back, only you're much better at not being caught, and you've noticed that his boy-ish smile is anything but. 
He's got the looks, the personality and the jawline of a male model to make any girl swoon.. and goddamit! If only that boy knew how you truly felt about him.
"Jeffrey Atkins?" Zach's voice pulls you from your thoughts. "Isn't the kid gay?"
"No," Jessica Davis laughs, finally finished snapping whatever selfies she'd been taking. "Tony's the gay one. Clay's into Hannah, and Jeff.. Jeff still likes kid movies."
You roll your eyes. "Plenty of people like the Star Wars movies," you tell your friends. "Adults included."
"Well gay or not, that kid is nothing but wasted potential," Justin says as he takes a seat next to Jessica. "He might give off the nerd vibe, but I've seen him ball when he thinks no one is paying attention. Kid's good."
"Yeah. Whatever," Monty smirks. As you take a gulp of Sheri's water, Monty sidles up to you and slings an arm across your shoulders. You scowl at him, but he only laughs and leans in until his temple rests against yours. "Look at him," he chuckles, gesturing to where Jeff sits. "He's like a love sick puppy." 
Monty then raises his free hand and wiggles his fingers in a mocking wave, and your eyes widen in surprise. "Cut it out," you quietly snap, shrugging him off and elbowing him in the process. "Leave him alone."
You reluctantly seek out Jeff's gaze, smiling sheepishly and shrugging off Monty's actions. But Jeff.. Jeff's standing and making his way towards you with a determined expression on his face.
Oh no.
"Uh oh," Justin snorts a laugh. "Nerd incoming."
Jessica and Sheri are giggling, and you're glancing around for a way out. But Zach, Justin and Monty block you in and you can only watch on in horror as the next couple of seconds unravel right before your eyes.
"Y/N," Jeff greets with a genuine smile.
Dammit. Don't swoon.
But you don't have to worry about becoming a stuttering fool because your friends prove to be dicks. Again.
"What are you doing, Jeffrey?" Justin smirks. "Get lost?"
"Foley," Jeff grimaces. "No. I just wanted to ask-"
"No. Whatever you have to say, the answer is no," Monty says. Jeff shifts nervously from foot to foot and the vultures descend at the opening. "Don't play coy, Atkins. We've noticed you staring at Y/N."
"Creepily, might I add," Jessica pipes up. 
Jeff's cheeks heat up in embarrassment and your anger suddenly spikes. You know your friends are assholes, hell you can be asshole at times as well, but they're being outright mean to Jeff and for what? What do they get out humiliating someone?
"It's not creepy if I'm only beholding the sight of perfection," Jeff then mumbles, gaze anywhere but on you.
Your friends' snickering suddenly cease and as Jeff's words register, you heart picks up speed. 
Did he just say what I think he said?
"Damn, Atkins," Zach finally laughs. "That was smooth."
"Very smooth," Sheri giggles, taking lead of the conversation now. "What is it you needed, Jeff?"
Being addressed by yet another pretty, popular girl, Jeff gulps. "I was- I was actually hoping that Y/N- that you," he says, now making eye contact with you, "would wanna maybe go to Rosie's with me?"
Sheri and Jessica coo, and the boys scoff.
"In your dreams," Monty laughs. "She'd never-"
"Yes." The words are out of your mouth before you know it, Monty and Justin staring at you in shock. 
"What?" The boys blurt.
"Yeah. What they said." Jeff says, eyes wide in surprise.
"Yes," you say again. Smiling. "I'd like to go to Rosie's with you."
Jeff blinks owlishly. "I don't- I don't mean to press my luck, but.. why?"
Now you're laughing, eyes twinkling with mirth. "Because when you weren't beholding the sight of perfection," you say as you walk towards him only to stop right in front of him, "I was." You wink. "Only, to me, perfection comes in a completely different package." As you say this, you gently pinch his chin to let him know exactly who you mean. He gulps and you smirk. "Clay lives near me. If you need directions to my house, tell your bestie to give you the deets."
So Y/N wasn’t exactly nervous, but this is the best I could come up with.
