the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be a part of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.
sometimes i think about how the "hee" in my username is a super subtle reference to lee heeseung, and how 'srce' means 'heart' in slovenian, and i rub my hands together while feeling like a little evil genius... (˵ •̀ᴗ•́˵)و
⋆ loves to take you out on fun dates - they always involve laughing together and eating delicious food !!
⋆ also he is definitely treating you to anything and everything because he loves to spoil you rotten because he is filthy rich with a whole heap of gojo clan money to spend x
⋆ for a fun outing he definitely takes you to an amusement park date
⋆ going on all the rides together (expect VIP passes and no wait times) and holding back your hair when you need to throw up in the nearest bin afterwards; winning you all the plushies you subtly make eyes at when you walk past the game stalls; and buying you all the carnival food you want
⋆ you'll share a mega stick of fairy floss while you hold a hot dog in your other hand and satoru has a cup of sour lollies in his
⋆ another place gojo loves to go with you is food markets!
⋆ remember when megumi was trying to get sukuna's finger back in ep1-2 and gojo was out buying sweets as souvenirs? yeah you would've been there with gojo for sure
⋆ the food market appeal: he gets to hang out with his favourite person (you), spoil you with treats (did i mention he's filthy rich), and taste new desserts with you (canon sweet tooth)

⋆ loves a bit of friendly competition, so he's picking places where you get to spend time playing games against each other (lovingly of course... even if it gets a bit heated sometimes...)
⋆ i think his favourite date ever would be going to the arcade. yes :3
⋆ it's where you went for your first date, and you really fell for the playful, flirty, and fun atmosphere between you two where you were both like 'yeah... i wanna see them again' at the end
⋆ now you return there periodically to beat your previous high scores and make juvenile bets about who can shoot more zombies the fastest (loser has to buy the other ice cream - and you do NOT go easy on each other just because you're dating... if anything you both try your absolute hardest)
⋆ furthermore, geto loves to take you go-karting!
⋆ racing each other around the track, sneaky manoeuvres that borderline going against the rules to overtake the other, all to see who can complete the racecourse the fastest
⋆ yes, more bets are placed. and yes, meaningless threats are thrown around.
⋆ "are you ready-?" geto would tease. "i was born ready." you would reply, fastening your helmet. "-to lose! the whole question was are you ready to lose, and you said you were born ready." he smirks when you roll your eyes (yes this is a b99 reference and i love you for getting it)

𝖭𝖺𝗇𝖺𝗆𝗂 𝖪𝖾𝗇𝗍𝗈
⋆ loves taking you out on romantic dates - always expect a nice meal of some description, he loves eating with you (and eating you... heh... who said that?), and sharing time with you while eating
⋆ likes to get you to dress up, and he matches your energy in a beautiful suit (depending on how fancy the place he's taking you is - sometimes he won't tell you because he wants it to be a surprise)
⋆ you'll share a bottle of wine, eat small and fancy finger food for the entree, delicious main courses being served to you by a nice waiter, and at the end maybe you'll even share a dessert
⋆ he just loves to make you feel special, and like you're experiencing fancy things - because you should be, you deserve the absolute world!
⋆ he also believes that dinner dates are the best first dates because you're able to properly talk and discover new things about each other in a nice ambient setting
⋆ when you guys get more committed and have spent longer dating each other, then he's more up for less 'formal' dates such as cute picnic dates where you eat homemade food and watch the sunset (or even sunrise sometimes to switch it up!), holding hands while sitting under a beautiful tree on your comfy picnic blanket

⋆ loves to host exquisite evenings in your honour
⋆ has you over at his estate majority of the time - why would you need to go out when he can have the cooks in his kitchen whip up a feast from freshly grown vegetables in his gardens?
⋆ definitely keeps subconscious notes about what your favourite dishes are, your likes and dislikes, what you ate during your childhood, any allergies, that sort of thing
⋆ relays this information to uraume, who organises everything as a surprise so when you're over one day and dinner time comes around, sukuna just leads you into the dining room with you on one of his arms
⋆ you see this grand smorgasbord of food set up on his banquet table, two chairs just for you and him - and when you look closer you realise it really is all the meals you love!
⋆ you'll just turn to him, all sappy and pouting because he put this effort in for you and he remembered what you like without you explicitly telling him what you would want, and he just shrugs your emotional vulnerability off claiming it's nothing special
⋆ but damn it if he's not softly smiling at your beaming face when you're taking it all in - if anyone confronts him about it he will have them decapitated.

𝖥𝗎𝗌𝗁𝗂𝗀𝗎𝗋𝗈 𝖳𝗈𝗃𝗂
⋆ loves to relax with you at home, low stress evenings
⋆ there'll be a new show that you're pirating (hello, he's not paying for streaming services...) and binging together - so what better thing to do than stay in, curled up in his lap in bed while you watch the show on your laptop?
⋆ plus, he's just come home from a long day of slaying sorcerers and he's absolutely knackered
⋆ nine times out of ten, he'll end up dozing off with you in his arms, so you know that's when it's time to pause the episode, turn it off, and snuggle until you fall asleep
⋆ if you wanna try something different though... sometimes you bring home new board games that you want to play with him
⋆ now, that's gonna take a lot more convincing, but he does have a soft spot for you so anything is possible - excluding monopoly
⋆ toji has a vendetta against monopoly, which works for you because you do not want a repeat of what happened last time (he definitely got ragebaited and crashed out, flipping the board because he went bankrupt... again)

𝖪𝖺𝗆𝗈 𝖢𝗁𝗈𝗌𝗈
⋆ honestly just loves dates that emulate a sense of domesticity
⋆ he just adores getting a peek into what life with you would be like - he knows he's gonna marry you one day, but you're just in the honeymoon phase of the relationship where he's fascinated by getting to know you and always hanging around you
⋆ doesn't care what you're doing, he will be there!
⋆ you need to run errands? he's pulling up to drive you there! no better date than grocery shopping with your boyfriend - he's mentally noting down your shopping routine and how you like to organise the trolley
⋆ you're just doing meal prep for the week at home? he's pulling up to help you! sure, you might be wary of letting a man in your kitchen but he's just so pure-hearted and loves learning to cook with you that you can't help but let him in - even if he's slowing you down a little bit
⋆ you're literally just doing chores around the house? wait for him, he wants to be part of it! he'll help you vacuum, mop the bathrooms, clean the toilets, dust all the top shelves, and anything you ask him to as long as he's doing it with you
⋆ sometimes, you don't understand the appeal - even if you love having him around, you're not complaining - but to choso, it's a welcome glance into your future together

⋆ loves classic kind of dates, always wants to experience teenage love to the max
⋆ something yuuji finds really alluring and attractive about you is that you match his energy and his zest for life! #matchinghisfreak
⋆ he's excited that the new human earthworm movie is coming out? you already caught up on the previous ones so you can go see it together! he's been wanting to try this trending cafe he's seen online? you already bought him a cute pastry from it to try!
⋆ the relationship between you two just makes sense, you're always on the same wavelength and you just click so well
⋆ that's why he's always buying you guys movie tickets, and you're always going for coffee dates together
⋆ he'll let you work your magic as you take aesthetic photos of your drinks to post to your story, tagging him so he can repost it on his account - you'll even recreate tiktok videos with trending audios in the background
⋆ you guys are living the full, happy teenage love experience every day

𝖥𝗎𝗌𝗁𝗂𝗀𝗎𝗋𝗈 𝖬𝖾𝗀𝗎𝗆𝗂
⋆ loves to explore things with you - doesn't really vibe with the formal structure of dates, so it's kind of just like 'hey, let's hang out just the two of us and do something low stress together'
⋆ most of the time you'll end up going to a new suburb or town and explore it for the day - if you live in/near a walkable city we're definitely taking advantage of that
⋆ using public transport and walking; hopping between art galleries and museums; trying a new restaurant for lunch; and dragging him to a photo-booth afterwards
⋆ sharing earphones on the train ride home when the sun is setting, laying your head on his shoulder and snoozing while he pretends to not be flustered by looking out the window
⋆ it's always something new with megumi, which is what you bring out of him - you make him want to see new things and make new memories
⋆ he'll never admit it, but he keeps every photo-booth strip from your adventures in a little treasure box x

a/n: more cutesy headcanons because i love them all and i just got bts tickets so i'm in the best ever mood possible #livelaughlove
-> these are my midnight thoughts whenever i can't sleep, and are just my opinions (..◜ᴗ◝..)
-> all writing credits to @dorotheeasrce - please do not copy, impersonate, or feed to ai! 。𖦹°‧
if only i could tell little 11y/o thea, in her room crying when listening to 'magic shop' for the first time, that she does in fact end up getting the opportunity to go and see bts live in concert. that things do get better, even if it takes time, and good things come to those who wait.
and that no dream is ever too silly or unattainable.
"the bee, of course, flies anyway. because bees don't care what humans think is impossible." has to be one of the greatest movie quotes ever. i think about it all the time. it #moves me.
Write whatever you want. Write that incredibly niche thing that only two other people on earth will get. Write the super indulgent cliche thing that makes you kick your feet giddily. Write the angry rage story that whumps them all and makes people cry.
Whatever it is that YOU want to write. Write it. Because only YOU can.
