💗ROs below:
💗Diesel Colton (24)
An ex-boyfriend from highschool in Emerald View Town who broke up with you after you graduated college because he told you the spark was gone or at least that’s what he thought..
Diesel is currently in a band called Kiss Land that seems to be rising more to fame, he is the lead singer and guitarist. He is passionate and caring although cold and prone to jealousy. You both meet again under different circumstances.
They say the second time around is sweeter. Would you fall for it?
“You’re mine… remember that. You were mine first, not his.”
💗Seth Mitch (22)
Seth is an old friend reunited from highschool along with Diesel and is currently in a band called Kiss Land as a singer and bassist.
You've known him to be shy but altruistic and trusting to everyone around him. It seems like meeting you again resurfaced hidden feelings all over for Seth once again.
Now that you're single, would you see him in a different light now?
“I shouldn't have fallen but still it has always been you.”
💗 Azrael Brunt (29)
The account planning executive of Evolving Ad Agency.
Azrael is known in the company to be very strict and rumor has it that he snapped at a young employee who quitted immediately after the incident. He is a reserved, cautious and hard-working man. You don't know what to feel when you are put together for work.
Would working with him change your view of him and get past his stubborn ways? Are you willing to cross a line between a superior and as a subordinate? After all, there is more than meets the eyes.
“I've never thought that I would feel this way for someone so strongly…”
💗 Grant Salvador (20)
The youngest copywriter in the company.
Both of you are one of the newly hires. Grant is a popular one due to his published children’s book at a young age. It is easy to get close to him as he is kind and protective, especially to those around him. When close enough, Grant asks you a favor to pretend to be his girlfriend for a family reunion (and maybe get his ex jealous).
Do you dare to accept? Or can a fake love turn to real love?
“I.. I don't think I can do this. Will you give me a chance to be yours for real?”
💗 Leonardo De Jésus (45)
The president of Evolving Ad Agency.
His commercial from 10 years ago was one of the reasons for your inspiration to make advertisements. Leon is an elegant, charitable man and known for handling money and business well. There’s a circulating rumor he might be going on a divorce with his wife.
Will this inspiration turn into something more or ruin you? Get more complicated and fall along with their family problems.
“Are you sure you can take it, sweetheart?”
💗 Markus Seyfried (26)
A charming and articulate young man of the media buying section.
Markus is popular when it comes to handling media deals and is known to be a ladies' man in the office. He thinks you’re interesting. When you are close and have an undeniable chemistry together, Markus might propose to you to be friends with benefits and no commitments.
Will you spend Friday nights with him and develop something more or have this arrangement crash and burn you both?
“Don't you think we should stop this Friday nights arrangement now? And go on a real date with me?”
*Romance is only possible if you agree to a physical relationship with him.
💗Isla Madison (21)
The in-house nurse of Evolving Ad Agency.
Isla is a pretty, intelligent and down to earth woman. You and Isla just became friends recently with both of you having the same interests in almost everything. You both could be best friends if you wanted, until she asks you a question that would change the moment for the both of you.
Could it be that Isla is only a straight best friend who jokes about being in a relationship with you yet remains platonic? Is there a chance you both realize you might want more?
“If I said I wanted to be your girlfriend, would you want that? ”
💗Conrad Matthias (38)
The bartender of Caracal Bar.
An amicable, kind hearted man. His huge stature might intimidate people looking for trouble yet his warmth is what draws most people in. Amidst the tiring office life sometimes, his presence might give you comfort at most.
Develop a crush to the handsome bartender or befriend him, who knows what might be in store for the both of you?
“Oh baby, say it and I’ll give you what you want.”
💗 Dominic Tesfaye (33)
The single dad neighbor.
There has been a commotion in your apartment and that a new neighbor across from you will be moving in this week. Dom is a loving father to a 6 years old little girl, he is courageous and sentimental. With just a door away, you’ll both be seeing each other most of the time when you are at the apartment.
Are you going to get close to him and his daughter, and develop something special? Or just stay as neighbors who would barely see each other?
“I hope you realized this but you’ve become special to me now.”
💗 Lawrence ??? (25)
The lawyer who frequents the Caracal Bar every Friday night.
Lawrence is a sarcastic yet appealing lawyer. You don't know anything about him but you do notice it seems like he is always waiting for something or someone.
Are you going to let your curiosity get the best of you and be friends with him or have a frequent hook up with him and uncover his secrets?
“If you keep staring at me like that, just ask me out on a date.”
Born in Sapphire City but moved to Emerald View when he entered high school. Currently lives in Metropolis Citrine with his bandmates.
6'2 (188 cm) in height.
His dad works as veterinarian and his mom was known for being in a band before becoming a school guidance councilor in Emerald View.
He has 2 younger sisters. A practicing veterinary college student while the youngest is still in high school. They look up to him.
Seth loves matcha and the color green.
He grew to love reading romance novels or watching romantic movies, thanks to his younger sisters.
When he was young, he was known in his class as the shy, musically inclined kid who loves animals so much. He was torn between wanting to be veterinary or a musician.
Seth knows how to play different kinds of musical instruments. He just loves bass guitar and the drums.
He doesn't believe in love at first sight but thinks he experienced it back in high school. Seth regrets never confessing to his first love.
COMPLETED PIECE #2 of seth and kiyana for @office-hours-affection-if !!! a lot of the little details were completely unintentional but i’m super happy with how it turned out WHAJWJA
the original cover and tidbits about the piece below 👇
the original image —
tidbits —
- seth’s watch hovers right over his heart, conveniently appropriate for the heart icon on its screen
- the small heart charm on kiyana’s bracelet is located on her inner wrist to represent how she loves intimately
- both seth and kiyana are wearing something that references their jobs ! seth is carrying a case for his bass (with some thematically appropriate stickers) and kiyana has a tablet pen tucked behind her ear
- both also wear accessories that allude to kiss land ! refer to seth’s bracelet/nail polish and kiyana’s bracelet/nail polish/lipstick
- i chose to put this interpretation as volume 2 to emphasize second chances
Hey 👋 I am a new, who is excited to read your story, and meet the ROs ( i am in love with Law)
Anyways if you haven’t already answered this before, how would the ROs react to the Mc saying that they(ROs) were in their dream while blushing and can’t keep eye contact?
Rbglish isn’t my first language, so if something is wrong, sorry.
/ have a good day/night 🫶
Hi Anon! and welcome fellow Law Romancer ^^ Also I didnt even notice that its not your first language too, you're good 🥰. Thank you for the support <33
ROS reacting to MC dreaming about them:
Assuming MC and the ROs are both in the crushing stage 🫢
Diesel: Would raise his eyebrow at you in amusement before grinning. "Oh? What kind of dream is it?" He'd ask you, clearly pleased at seeing your blushing face. He won't stop teasing and pestering you to admit, and when you do, he'd be worked up but won't say it. "You should dream only of me."
Seth: Blush and fold!! "You dreamt about me?" Would also panic at seeing your reaction. "Well to be fair, I had a lot of dreams about you too." He'd confess, his hand rubbing the back of his nape, avoiding eye contact. Seth avoids speaking more of it because he is afraid he might say too much about it but nonetheless someone is going to sleep elated.
Az: "What dream was it?" He'd genuinely ask but seeing your reddening face and you can't seem to look at his face would get some ideas in his head. "W-well that's completely normal." Az would say, assuring you and you can't help but notice him stutter and his ears a bit red, since you've started spending time with him this was the first time you've seen it. "...especially now we're always working together." He quietly continues, still not looking and something the way he says it, suggests its not only you dreaming about him. Could it be he had dream about you too?
Grant: "Interesting..." He'd just say, he won't say anything more but with the way he was looking at you feels like something in him changes. You'd notice him be more clingy towards you and gets your attention. Starts dropping more hints that he likes you.
Leon: "Then I hope it was good dream." He'd say, smiling at you softly but seeing your reaction gets him flustered. He clears his throat awkwardly. "It's fine, its normal to dream about... that" Although, he is curious and interested but won't ask you more about it. Leon is secretly pleased you dreamt about him and it makes his day.
Markus: He grins at your reaction. "Please, I have all day. Tell me all about it." Markus would be elated and even light heartedly joke with you. "We can make that a reality, if you want. I'd be happy to provide you any service."
Dom: Would reassure you that its fine to dream about him but deep inside is freaking out. You had dreams of him?! Has so many questions. "Do- do you want to talk about it? I mean, no pressure of course" but is dying to know. You may have occupied his mind but now he can't deny it anymore.
Isla: Teases you about it when seeing your reaction and when she sees you had enough of her teasing bc it makes you so shy, she'd tone it down or try to differ the conversation to her. "You know I had a dream once that you were very jealous when I was dating an ex..." She smiles at seeing your pouting lips, she taps it with her finger lightly, she stares back at your eyes, longingly. "-and it made me happy that you wanted me." The last line has you almost holding your breathe.
Conrad: "Hey, no need go get shy." He smiles at you affectionately. Conrad pulls your hand away from your face to get a good look of you. "Hearing you say you dream of me makes me so damn happy and to be fair you're a dream come true to me." You almost snickered at his flirtation attempt and almost pull away but Conrad gently stops you. "What? Its the truth!" You shake you head at his antics sometimes but its one of the reason you've been enamored to him.
Law: He invited you for a dinner at his place, sitting down in his expensive sofa, nervous you'll spill your drink but he only rolls his eyes at you playfully, "Its just a drink. It'll be easy to clean them."
Which still didn't help as you're even more nervous, you blurt out your dream of him that starts like this and somehow it spiraled to you almost confessing to a direction of the said dream that you've swear to bring with you to the grave, you look back to see Lawrence only staring at you in turn before blinking rapidly, he turns to his head to the side, covering his mouth with the back of his palm and you almost wanted the ground to swallow you up, waiting for him to laugh or make fun of you, so you looked down on your lap and waited for a sound but he didn't.
Curiously, you raised your head slowly to see him in the same position but he was now looking at you. You raised your eyebrows to see him openly blushing. It was the first time to see him like this. All because of you? You can't help but urge to tease him, you start to grin.
"Don't."
He warns you, dropping his hand. "Or what?" you answer back lightly and he starts smirking, getting close to you, causing your grin to drop, oh no. Law smirking is never a good combination for you (and your heart)
"I'll kiss you."
💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
note and an update:
didnt meant to have a bit more part for lawrence but i had to write it as it kept rolling!! :)) anyway, thank you for reading. i was able to practice writing, even if its short.
im also waiting for the hospital ill be deployed so im still a bit on edge and the preparations. august certainly became more of a busy month for me but i want to thank you for being here and supporting even if i post sometimes now, your patience means a lot! as long as i am still active here then writing will continue + all asks will also be answered (even if its slow 🥲)
WIP !! continuing my mini-project with kiyana and seth from @office-hours-affection-if featured on the volume 1 cover of wotakoi (TECHNICALLY this is a josei but I thought the office romance concept was perfect)
original cover below 👇 the workplace comedy is definitely a highlight
THE FINISHED PIECE IS HERE !! Took me a while to figure out the rendering bc I’m still practicing, but here are the girlies :>
Be sure to check out the ifs that they’re from if you haven’t already !!
- rui min (ruth) from @merrycrisis-if
- cosette from @if-mirrormine
- xochitl from @circuit-if
- kiyana from @office-hours-affection-if
a little on each of them below 👇
rui min (ruth)
- has always been considered tall for her age, garnering her a reputation for reaching high places for her shorter friends and family; likely due to her athleticism as a student
- LOVES visiting the bakery; she’s prone to returning home with at least one slice of cake, some baked goods to toast for breakfast, and plans to get more sometime that week
- the ring on her necklace was originally intended to be a gift for Nat; she now wears it as a memento of what could have been
cosette:
- was studying English prior to her disappearance; her original plan had been to become a novelist in a few years time, though she wasn’t exactly,,,present to set things in motion
- an avid collector of vintage purses; she took a particular liking to bags that resemble books, even purchasing ones with covers of modern books since her return
- never seen anywhere without a cardigan, no matter the circumstances; she has one for every occasion, including for dates, field days, and bedtime, etc.
xochitl:
- was obsessed with disney’s the little mermaid as a child has since stuck with the aesthetic of her favorite princess; she dyed her hair red and favors turquoise blue for her racing gear to pay homage to ariel
- bears several scars from racing mishaps, but tries to make light of the situation by giving them names; the ones on her brow are named Pisces and the ones on her abdomen are named Little and Big Dipper
- habitually switches to Spanish when she’s talking to herself, sometimes forgetting to change back to English when she’s distracted
kiyana:
- runs a casual blog where she posts tutorials for how to do different hairstyles for Black hair; her friends will know if she’s posted a new video when she’s sporting a new hairstyle the next time they meet
- when she isn’t storyboarding, she’s likely to be found gardening; despite being an amateur at correctly watering the plants, she finds the activity therapeutic and placid
- has been dabbling in diy crafts since she was in high school; jewelry remains her favorite accessory to make, having improved greatly since her first commission to make matching bracelets for Kiss Land as a student
i have been busy with my on-going internship requirements and just recently finished driving school so i wasn't able to answer asks and post contents. im also still writing whenever i get the chance and the demo is currently 4.3k and counting.
im not satisfied with it as i felt incredibly slow with my writing but then a progress is a progress.
that's all for today! be back again soon 💗
P.S. heres a snippet of name (can still be changed 🤔) of choices you can pick for a certain ex.
Send this to ten other bloggers that you think are wonderful. Keep the game going, make someone smile!!! 💖^^
You don't have to keep the chain going, but I really enjoy your blog and reading your asks about the ROs. It's like my own little newspaper so thank you!
Can I ask as a follow up to the date ask you just answered,,, how would the ros react if mc came back from the date early and when the ro asks what’s wrong mc says “I left early because I couldn’t stop thinking about you the whole time” 🥺
🥺 please, ily already for asking this!
Diesel: Would outright blush, "you were really thinking about me?" He'd ask dumfounded as if he didn't try to stop it earlier. Asks you right away to date him.
Seth: "I-I'm so happy." You'd hear him say when pulls you in close for a hug. Would confess right there and you'll probably see tears in his eyes. "I love you for so long now, and hearing you say all that, I'll take all my chances with you..."
Az: He'd stare at you in shock before a small smile on his face, his fingers grazing your cheek, "I'm glad because I didn't stop thinking about you all these time". He'll kiss you after your confession.
Grant: Gets ecstatic, "Wow, so you're thinking about me." but then also get guilty quickly, "I'm also sorry for crashing your date. Can I take you out on one, to you know... show you how sorry I am?" Grant would sneakily add.
Leon: He can't believe it, you were thinking about him? Leon would blush at the thought. "You were? But I thought you like them-" A surprise kiss from you would surrender all his inhibitions. He can't lie to himself anymore, he wants this and he wants you. Hell, maybe Leon needs you after all.
Markus: Immediately hugs you. "Can I kiss you?" He'd ask before pulling away from the hug and when he does kiss you, there's a huge smile on his face you can feel. Mark would get shy for the very first time when looking back at you. "Can we also make this real now?"
Isla: "And you found me." Isla murmurs, cradling your face with her soft fingers. She is very pleased. "Glad we're on the same page after all." She'd shyly comment before kissing you on your lips.
Dom: Before he can react, Kia hears you, she would run and hug you, exclaiming "Oh! Dad has been thinking about you too!" You turn to Dom and he'd get redder. "All the time..." Kia would quip and Dom would try to reprimand her lol but deep inside thinks maybe he had a chance with you after all. He'll ask you out no question after that.
Conrad: "Really?" He'd sigh in relief. "I thought I was the only thinking about you..." He'd cheekily smirk at you to your surprise. "Guess I'm not." He'd pull you close and teasingly kiss you.
Law: "Good to know." He'd answer back cockily, his arms crossing. When he does get close to you, a genuine smile makes way to his face, uncrossing his arm, he holds your hand gently, kissing it. "Good to know I was in your mind like you have been in mine."
