💝what is a fic that got a different response than you were expecting?

I already answered this but I'll answer again with a different fic. I was really surprised by the response to Led By Your Beating Heart, which is my FMA/TAZ crossover fic. It's a niche crossover, and I didn't expect people to care much about it. But I've written almost a full Nanowrimo for it at this point so I figured I may as well post it, and people have been really nice about it!

Headcanons for Todou for how he takes care of his s/o in a relationship (would also be down to hear how long it took him to realize his feelings for you if inspiration allows).

(AN: You have no idea how excited I am that my first ask was for Todou! I love this idiot. I ended up writing a whole lot, so the silly, bad, and ugly are under the cut! As well as how long it took him to realize his feelings for you xoxo) [Want to make a request? Click -> [YO!]

How Todou takes care of his S/O in a relationship:

The So Amazingly Good:

🌸 Todou is a bright ray of sunshine starting early in the morning -- once he’s nice and awake anyway. He’ll insist you get up with him so you two can start the day off right together ... even if it is really early. Todou likes his routines, and the more you get up with him and participate in that routine, the more you find yourself liking it too. It definitely helps getting to shower together and get yourselves looking nice for the day!

🌸 Speaking of, Todou really respects someone who takes care of their appearance. Not due to vanity, but because he takes his own very seriously as well. If you’re having a bad day and don’t feel like getting out of bed, don’t even worry about it. Todou will make a nice, hot bath for you and pluck you out of bed himself, insisting that cleaning up will make you feel much better.

🌸 I really hope you’re here for encouragement all of the time, because Todou is all about it. He’s always trying to help you reach your goals, big or small. Whether you’re trying to make something new for dinner or trying to hit a difficult pose in yoga -- or even trying to get a new position at your current job, Todou is right there, being your personal cheerleader and doing whatever he can to help you stay motivated.

🌸 He loves physical contact, by the way. Hand holding is all fine and dandy, but this man likes to have his hand at the small of your back or around your waist when you’re out together. It makes him feel so happy, having you so close to him. He’ll respect it if you tell him to back off a little, but it’ll make him pouty for sure.

🌸 Kisses are a big part of Todou’s love language. A kiss on the top of your head for a hello. A kiss to your temple when you’re curled up together. A kiss on your forehead when you wake up. It’s a part of his communication with you, and a way for him to express himself as well.

🌸 Also, talk about romance and romantic outings. This man has an insane imagination and comes up with romantic scenarios that you could only dream of. He puts so much thought and effort into every little touch, every little piece. Todou is a smart man, and he remembers every single one of your favorite little things. Favorite flowers, favorite foods, favorite treats. You have to be a little careful though, when saying that something “sounds nice” or that you’d like to experience it someday. Like, you better be serious, because Todou is about to make that passing thought a reality.

🌸 After a long day, Todou manages to tone down his always-at-100% personality at home. He’ll cook, or help you cook, a delicious meal to sit down with and turn on one of your favorite shows. He’s ready to cuddle up on the couch and just enjoy being with you. But, if you’re wanting to do anything extra, he’s ready to tap into that never-ending energy and do whatever you want to do!

🌸 He’s a near expert in the human body, so if you’ve got an ache or a pain, he’s there to massage it away. Just be careful when telling him how much it really hurts, because he’s real strong. More under the cut~

The Silly:

🌸 Todou can never remember how long you’ve been dating, because he mixes it up with his dumb fantasies. He also really over-exaggerates how you guys met.

🌸 Boredom is Todou’s number one fear, and that means he brings a lot of weird ideas to you to keep the two of you entertained.

🌸 He loves to carry you around everywhere, despite the fact that you can obviously walk there yourself, because he’s a bit of a show-off and he loves hearing you giggle -- or hearing you telling him off.

🌸 Todou loves telling everyone in every way you conquered the love he had for Takada. He still respects Takada, but his obsessive love is now pinned to you, and everyone is gonna hear about it.

The Bad:

🌸 Todou’s job is very dangerous, and that’s why every moment that he has with you, he considers special. Unfortunately, that may come off as him suffocating you with attention.

🌸 He’s gone for long periods of time, sometimes. You can’t always rely on him when you’re having a bad day, so you have to have your own inner strength to persevere through life while he’s gone.

The Ugly:

🌸 Todou is very headstrong and opinionated, and there will be times when he doesn’t understand what you’re feeling or why you’re feeling it. It’ll cause conflict if you’re not willing to be patient with him and help him understand what you’re going through. He may seem extremely pushy to help you get out of your funk, and that may cause a world of hurt between the two of you. He solves problems by going head first through them, and having to take a different approach is hard for him.

🌸 You can’t be a jealous person and persist with this man. He’s still going to ask every man who fights him what his type of woman is, and Todou has his examples of his favorites! You’ll have to understand that this interaction he has with peers and enemies, and his love for you, are two completely separate things.

How Long It Took Todou to Realize His Feelings

🌸 Oh lordy does this man like to play it cool. Of course he recognized his feelings for you instantly, and you can’t convince him otherwise!

🌸 In reality, it took him some time to realize his true feelings for you. He always thought the feeling he had for Takada was true love and adoration. Then you came along, and the longer you stuck around, the more he couldn’t get you out of his head.

🌸 Todou, bless him, thought about you endlessly and thought you must be his new best friend.

🌸 It took some time, and one very elaborate fantasy that spun out of his control, to realize that he had deep, romantic feelings for you. He didn’t expect to ask you out in his fantasy!! But you were there, instead of Takada!! And you ... You didn’t turn him down!

🌸 He was hilariously shy when trying to ask you out outside of his fantasy. The fear of rejection is strong when he’s finally putting it into play. But you simply giggled and asked him if he finally realized how long you’d liked him.

[caitmayart]

Okay, my new background on my laptop is the studious Shadowgast pic! It’s been the Caduceus and Jester Xhorhouse prep for ages. I love you and your art so much.

Omg thank you XD That makes me so happy I’m so glad you like my work!!!! 

[kl-beginning-zine]

Hi there, I had a few questions about potentially be included as a writer for this project. The first was what are the word requirements? Are you looking for short fic? Long fic? The second was do you accepted previously posted works, or does it need to be brand new for this project? I'm new to tumblr and to 'zines and these weren't answered in the FAQ. Thanks!

Hi! We’ve just posted requirements for the applications on our apply page.

Works that you apply with can be previously posted. You can also use a section of a longer work as one of your selected pieces if you feel it makes sense by itself and is strong enough on its own. However, if you are accepted, the work that is published in the zine must be entirely new and unpublished. I hope this answers your questions!

FFVII

Send me a fandom and I’ll tell you my:

blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most): Cloud and Zack!

scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped): Aerith, maybe?

scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave): This would have been Zack, once upon a time, but now everyone loves Zack. Maybe Nanaki? I don't feel like he gets a lot of love.

glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week): No, THIS would have been Zack once. Anyway, let's go with Elmyra Gainsborough.

poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave): Tifa gets some bad rap that she truly doesn't deserve. Does that count? I don't think she's unpopular, but there at least used to be some real controversy around her character.

horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason): Cloud, obviously.

eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell): Hojo, absolutely.

I don’t want to be greedy after the wonderful Todou headcanons, but while you wait for other requests I’m happy to ask for some Megumi headcanons about how his life changed when Yuuji joined as a student (looks like Megumi was a solo first year before then). Happy to see this as romantic or platonic.

(AN: NONSENSE, BE AS GREEDY AS YOU WANT, because I am LOVING these prompts so much)

Want to make a request? HIT ME UP -> [YO]

How Megumi’s Life Changed When Yuuji Came Along

🌙Megumi is, of course, conflicted when it turns out Yuuji will be joining him. He saved Yuuji’s life, and at the time, he still doesn’t have a real reason why he did it.

🌙 That being said, his interaction with Yuuji up to that point had just been. Why won’t this idiot listen to me, why does he keep doing stupid things that’ll get him killed.

🌙 At first he’s extremely annoyed that Gojo put Yuuji’s room right next to his, because OF COURSE he would do that after Megumi has been alone for so long at this point.

🌙 Yuuji is just full of so much ... energy. He’s always smiling and loud, he loves to talk about his favorite things, and he asks a lot of questions. Megumi knows that Yuuji doesn’t mean any harm with all of, well, all the extremes that he is, but it makes him bristle and feel uncomfortable at first.

🌙 Though, he finds the follow periods of silence less pleasant than they used to be. He’d rather be listening to Yuuji talk about some dumb movie, or his favorite foods, or anything really. He pretends to not be interested, and for the most part he isn’t, but he finds himself internally noting things Yuuji says he likes.

(So much more UNDER THE CUT, because I am a rambly bastard.)

🌙 When Nobara joins them, it eases the tension off of him a little bit. Now the attention isn’t so 1-on-1 and he can think a little more clearly.

🌙 Mr.-No-Friends certainly enjoys having friends. Even if he does stay mostly quiet.

🌙 Yuuji ’s death absolutely crushed him. Yes, he was told to expect people to die in this job, yes he knew it was likely Yuuji’s fate because of Sukuna anyway, but it cut Megumi much deeper than he ever thought was possible. He couldn’t stop remembering that moment, couldn’t stop seeing it in his minds eye. Sleepless nights, staring at the ceiling, wondering why. The pain didn’t ease, even as the exchange event came and he had something else to focus on. It haunted him.

🌙 That being said, when Yuuji reappeared in such a stupid way, Megumi strongly considered never forgiving him for a few seconds and putting his ass back into the ground.

🌙 The relief he felt as things went back to as normal as they ever were can’t be measured, though. Megumi found he missed Yuuji’s laugh. He missed the ridiculous stories. He missed the way Yuuji misinterpreted things in a dumb way. He missed that bright smile. So much tension that had built up in his shoulders melted away.

🌙 Megumi finally got a good night’s rest at some point. He was the first to say good morning the next morning and Yuuji tripped over his own two feet in shock lmao.

🌙 He catches himself watching Yuuji more often than not. But it’s just because Yuuji’s gotten so much stronger, right? He’s studying him. Megumi can improve watching Yuuji and training with him.

🌙 Right, that’s exactly why Megumi quietly suggests a place for them to get lunch and doesn’t complain when Yuuji walks right next to him and repeatedly bumps into him while he’s trying to follow the directions on his phone.

🌙 Yuuji is still new to the world of curses, and Megumi figures he should be the one to teach or explain to Yuuji a few things. Gojo will just be stupid about it and Nobara can be so intense.

🌙 Yuuji opens up about a lot. He’s not afraid to share his feelings or his past, like Megumi is. When they take the occasional late-I-can’t-sleep walk together, it’s mostly Yuuji talking and Megumi listening. He doesn’t mind, though.

🌙 Now, Megumi doesn’t prefer going anywhere alone, really. When he needs some time to himself, he can have it. But he finds he needs that less and less. He’d rather be around that stupid, smiling idiot friend of his. So much of the time. Which is good, since Yuuji seems to  be of the same mind.

🌙 At first, when Yuuji would get on Megumi’s bed, he would get annoyed and swat him off of it. Now it’s a common occurrence and he’s not sure when he became okay with it. Yuuji lounging around in his room or on his bed, just chatting away, seems so normal now.

🌙 Megumi has a crush. He admits it to himself one day, sighing as he stares for too long into the mirror. That has to be why he’s always got Yuuji on his mind, why he feels so protective over him suddenly, why he hates it when it gets too quiet or Yuuji is pulled away for a few days for a mission or training. It hurts when he sees Yuuji sad or upset, but Megumi is too awkward to know what to do in those situations. He’s never been good at emotionally connecting with anyone.

🌙 For now, he holds his secret crush tightly to his chest. Maybe he’ll figure it out, someday. Or, maybe it would be healthier to let it go ...

🌙 He doesn’t know.

🌙 Everyone else sure notices how much more animated and happier he is these days, though.
