Hand-holding

The purest form of human connection.

tiny hands in big hands

calloused hands in soft hands

cold hands in warm hands

hands with the perfect ratio to each other for hand-holding

platonic hand-holding

running their thumb over the other’s hand

dancing with their hands holding onto each other

squeezing hand for comfort and encouragement

holding hands across the table

happily doing everything with just one hand, if it means they don’t have to let go

not wanting to lose each other in a big crowd

possessive hand-holding

linking hands together during sex

grabbing hand to show them something

loosely holding onto each other’s hands, laying in one’s lap

only linking the pinkies together, not ready to let go completely

holding hands while skating

excitedly grabbing each other’s hands during a concert, jumping up and down together

playing with each other’s fingers

pressing the other’s hand against their cheek

holding hands while one is balancing on a small wall

grabbing the other’s hand to pull them back from something

holding hands under the table

only realizing it when they have to let go

standing in front of each other, holding both their hands

holding their hands above their head, fingers linked together

passionate hand-holding

grabbing the other’s hand so they don’t fall

holding hands while running through the rain

brushing against each other, linking fingers together for a second

grabbing their hand to grab their attention

not really paying attention, both doing something else, but still holding hands

bandaging the other’s hand and not quite letting go

holding hands while driving

grabbing the other’s hand to pull them back to them

unconsciously searching out each other’s hand while sleeping

not realizing they’re holding hands till someone points it out

swinging hands back and forth, skipping like children

holding hands in a museum to pull them to the next exhibition

letting go when there is an obstacle in their way and immediately grabbing each other’s hand again when they pass it

loosely holding onto each other’s hand

dragging the other with them, holding their hand

raising the other’s hand to their lips to kiss it softly

holding hands while jumping down from somewhere together

comparing hand sizes, then linking fingers together

Hugs|Kisses|Touching

[sehyn]

my mom says she’s not a hugger. but when i put my arms around her on a gloomy day or after bad news she’s the last to let go. my dad says he doesn’t want gifts on his birthday, but i see the way his face lights up when i get him a card with a nice message and a box full of chocolate anyway. he’s just a kid inside, still. it makes him giddy. my brother never says i love you. but when i tell him “i just need to finish the dishes before i vacuum!” he wordlessly goes to vacuum the entire house before i can, and if he sees me struggle with a wrapper or a jar or a bottle he mutters ‘c’mere’ and opens it for me without even sparing me a glance. the thing is, people love you quietly, and you love them quietly, and the air is buzzing with tiny but grand gestures & once you look for them, you find them everywhere. i think that’s really beautiful.

THE MAGIC OF THE WATER

~ Arianna Nardelli, 2021 ©️

[zero-0-clock]

i think there is something indescribably beautiful about the fact that art, in all its forms, lasts longer than we do. you will never read all the books or hear all the songs, watch all the movies or see all the paintings, but there is comfort in knowing that there is always something more out there. even if you'll never get to experience it.

the world is infinite, even if we are not. never think that you should stop searching because "there's nothing to discover anyway". make the most of your limited time in this wonderful, cruel world, because one day you'll be gone. and when you leave, you shouldn't regret what you didn't experience. instead, be grateful for the things you did experience. the books you read, the paintings you looked at, the movies you saw- all of them and more added a little piece in the complicated puzzle that is you.

never regret. instead, remember. and love (love even what you didn't get to experience).

you can wonder about who you could've been, but remember to appreciate who you became, too.

Yves Pires, the kiss

[alicenardelli]

[...] Non bisogna avere paura di morire, ma di non cominciare mai a vivere davvero. Saltate dentro all'esistenza ora, qui. Se non trovate niente ora, non troverete niente mai più. È qui l'eternità. Dobbiamo dire "sì" alla vita.

Autumn/Halloween Fun List

With the weather cooling down and the leaves beginning to change I feel it’s time to celebrate the most spooky season of the year with a unique Fun List. Usually I host Prompt Lists but this time around I’d like to try something different. I’d like to make this more interesting and more creative for all of us.

The Fun List will include; a prompt list for one-shots, open requests for headcanons, and a new segment I’d like to call “The Ouran Texts” - which I will explain in detail further down.

Everything participating in the Fun List will be Autumn/Halloween themed so regular requests will not be answered at this time. 

To avoid any confusion on how to navigate through the Fun List I’ll explain how to request for anything on this list. 

To request a one-shot from the Prompt List: send an ask to my Ask Inbox asking for a one-shot with one(1) prompt from the list and up to two(2) OHSHC characters (please clarify if they are a romantic ship or a platonic pair - ships suggesting incest either through blood or marriage will be deleted). 

To request a themed headcanon: send an ask to my Ask Inbox requesting for up to three(3) headcanons for one(1) OHSHC character. You can base the headcanon off of the prompt list or you can ask for a specific Autumn/Halloween headcanon not on the prompt list (all headcanons must be SFW - all NSFW requests will be deleted).

To request an “Ouran Text”: send an ask to my Ask Inbox requesting up to five(5) OHSHC characters with one(1) prompt from “The Ouran Texts” list and a genre (funny, romantic, scary - if none is provided I will decide). You may also request for a romantic ship to “text” each other, just clarify that is what you’re asking for. 

Prompt List:

Corn Maze

Apple Cider

Oversized Sweatshirt 

Haunted House

Couple Costume

Campfire

Scary Stories

Real Haunted House

Open Requests for Autumn/Halloween Headcanons:

You may ask for a headcanon based off the prompt list above or ask for a themed headcanon not on the list (ex; “What would Kyoya dress up as for Halloween?”). 

Remember to keep it SFW. If you want a Fun List for the NSFW blog, let me know.

The Ouran Texts:

For this segment I will create “text message screenshots” between the OHSHC characters. You get to decide what they’re talking about and who is in the chat. You may also request for romantic ships but be sure to clarify who is in the ship. You may also request which “genre” the chat is (funny, scary, romantic) and if none is provided then I’ll decide which direction I want to take it.

Note: If you think of a themed question that is not on the list then feel free to send it in. Remember, no NSFW requests. 

Text Prompt List:

“Why did you bring that?”

“Don’t tell them!”

“What are you dressing up as?”

“Why did you choose that costume?”

“Do you want to go with me?”

“Are you awake?”

“I might have brought something for the occasion…”

“No jump scares this year.”

“Can you come over?”

“Help!”

“Guys this isn’t funny.”

“Stop banging on my door.”

“Who’s going to wear the bunny outfit?”

“Guys… I’m lost.”

“That sounds like fun, we should do that.”

“Can you pick up some _____ for me?” (You can specify what they want.)

“I vote we watch this tonight.”

“What are we dressing up as this year?”

“Who’s going trick or treating with us?”

“I must confess something to you…”

“Who ate the rest of the pumpkin pie?!”

“Don’t go to bed yet.”

“Would you… go on a date with me?”

“It’s so evil…. I LOVE IT!”

Have fun and remember to please be patient while I answer the requests :).

THE CALMING SOUND OF WATERFALL IN THE AUTUMN FOREST

~ Arianna Nardelli, 2018 ©️

[neverfinishawar]

Am I the only one who reads the last page of the book before starting the book? I don’t even know why I do it, but it just kind of happens and I have absolutely no control.

[feelingstoostrong]

i think your smile is just about the best thing in the world.

[wxitingforlove]

In the mood to sit in front of someone, listening to music, staring into each other eyes and let the music explain our feelings, the heat, the affection. Not able to stop touching each other. Getting lost in the moment like it's the last thing we will ever live through. Every touch, every breath, every move fits the song, and still, we are our own. Working with each other without thinking, hands caressing the curves of the bodies. It's a dance, a dance about us, and everyone would look at us when we were on stage, the main characters in a story of love and understanding, blind understanding. Knowing what the other wants, needs, only by looking at them. Connected souls are communicating, but we're unable to actually hear it. Drowning in the eyes; and they're screaming, I want you even closer. Feeling it as a whole, not only at the end of our nerves, arms, legs and back; on the inside, the heart, the head, the stomach. And it doesn't stop, doesn't stop, doesn't stop, until...

Until...

There is the high and we feel like flying, higher than we have ever been, staring into each other's eyes, not blinking, lost in the moment. And then; falling, and falling, and falling, into each other, into each other's arms. Laying there and relishing the moment of the afterglow.

And all there is, is love. And acceptance, and understanding, and trust. But most of all, there is love.

[rhapsodic-evanescence]

I want all of you, every version.

I want the you that dances around in only socks on the kitchen floor until you almost slip. I want the you that dances in the rain despite the people yelling at you that you’ll catch a cold. I want the you that bakes way too many cookies at one time just so you can eat extras. I want the you that sings and belts out the high notes when no one else is home. I want the you that messes with your hair until you realize you’re doing it. I want the you that only wants to be hugged and kissed and held. I want the you that hates to admit there’s a love for cheesy movies somewhere in that Netflix watchlist. I want the you that stays up late thinking of things you’d only bring up in really deep 2am conversations. I want the you that laughs uncontrollably until you’re literally on the floor even if it was just over some stupid video. I want the you that points out every dog on the street because of that overwhelming sense of pure excitement. I want the you that has to snap out of a daydream in the middle of the day. I want the you that does crazy poses for the camera even though you know you’ll just laugh later and tell me to delete them. I want the you that you are at your best. But I’ll certainly love the you that you are at your worst. Because I want all of you.

please, keep writing. keep drawing. keep painting. please keep making your art no matter how many may try to push you down. the world does not have nearly enough artists.

imagine going on a road trip with all the right people. imagine sleeping in a small crappy hotel room with them, staying up late, laughing. then the next morning waking up early because you can’t wait to see what the next day has in store and don’t want to waste any time at all.. late at night going down the highway of a crowded city, watching all the other people going on adventures late at night and living their life. neon lights & fast food signs. you and your friends having petty little arguments over what song to play next. blaring you car radio at an unreasonable volume and all of you laughing and shouting the lyrics. laying on the top of your car together and looking at the stars, cuddled up in a huge blanket. having a fun life, a happy life.
