discontent  fills  his  lungs  after  sighing  frustration  through  his  lips  ,  face  almost  pouting  ,  read  mostly  as  a  scowl  .  the  new  guy's  here  and  claudia  ,  cloud's  mom  ,  has  got  everything  in  order  for  his  cabin  and  place  on  the  farm  .  the  current  farmer  isn't  much  for  change  or  new  visitors  ,  but  it's  mostly  because  he  prefers  to  keep  things  peaceful  ,  avoidant  of  anything  that  causes  any  sort  of  anxiety  to  well  in  his  chest  .  people  aren't  his  strong  suit,  but   .   .   .   he'll  try  to  get  along  .  for  his  mom  ,  if  nothin'  else  .

so  ,  he  continues  his  hesitant  pace  toward  the  center  of  town  to  show  ‘  squall  ’  his  new  place  .  next  to  his  own  .  and  he's  hopin'  he's  even  got  his  name  right  ,  already  fearing  for  the  embarrassment  to  come  . 

cloud  makes  contact  with  an  unfamiliar  figure  ,  approaching  him  quickly  because  the  awkward  pace  between  two  people  who  are  meeting  and  don't  know  each  other  is  almost  deadly  .  ❛   hey  .    ❜   he  calls  ,  holding  out  a  hand  once  he's  close  enough  to  deem  it  appropriate  .

❛   'm  cloud  .  you   .   .   .   shawl  ?    ❜                        shit  .

     ❝     it’s meant to look like her,     ❞     the aforementioned pikachu that splays her body o’er @lumined’s lap,     hind legs in the characteristic,     ‘sploot’     of a corgi——     she’d nearly been dozing off ‘til she’d been forced back into the world of the living by the offhand comment made at her expense,     big,     black hues gleaming ‘gainst the rotating light of the ceiling fan,     ears perked,     tail straight out.     the,     ‘pika?’     of confusion that follows is exceptionally soft,     though n pays it no mind whilst he presents the next project he’d been working on,     a crochet pikachu done in the likeness of his own.     ❝     though i suppose i must've messed up somewhere and made her     …     too fat.     ❞     ♡!

@lumined : ❛ the big come down, isn't that what you wanted? ❜ / from here & accepting.

matthew was all but certified in the art of self - sabotage. peter's question almost felt like a mockery, but matthew couldn't bring himself to care about it too much. in moments like this, when things got bad again ... he felt like he needed to throw himself back to the bottom. every time he felt he'd redeemed himself, felt he'd atoned for his sins, he ended up back here.

with how often he ended up in a state of almost relapse, picking random fights he knew he couldn't win, and pushing everyone he loved away ... in a way, it felt like this was what he wanted — even if only subconsciously. ❛ i don't know anymore. sometimes it feels like i choose this for myself on purpose. ❜

❝ hey, those look heavy. need help carryin' them ? ❞ and then reno just grabs one of leon's pecs, giving the flesh a squeeze before he leans down to bite the other one.

      𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐌𝐓𝐇 𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐒 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐈𝐑 𝐁𝐎𝐃𝐈𝐄𝐒. his scent was intoxicating, leaves him blinking slow and hazy from close proximity. stare follows every languid movement. his heart might be felt skipping beneath the other's grasp : doesn't take much to excite him. leon won't evade his advances, only raises a 𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐅 question that was answered very soon after. he didn't process things in time. ❛ help with what exactly ❞ a sharp intake of breath, caught with his gentle alarm. ❛ hey. ❞ thin fabric gathered between those teeth, fingers raising to clasp around his wrist while the others rest at this fiend's shoulder. wow ... that sparked something.

      because an exhaled groan escapes parted lips, it's feathery like a shudder. ❛ this is a new record, i haven't been home more than seven minutes. ❞ could be that his 𝐔𝐍𝐈𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐌 is partially removed, looking like a hot mess after clocking out. they always met in his apartment, a key was given but he didn't expect reno to wait on him at this hour. @lumined

🍒 + lumined :D

send  me  🍒  +  a  url  and  i  will  write  some  positivity  for  them.

miss  layla's  turn!?  oh  boy,  oh  boy,  oh  BOYYYYY  !!!  im  wiggling  in  my  chair.

so  listen.  i  saw  layla's  blog  through  a  dash  mutual,  and  was  like  “omg !  they  write  tidus !  i  love  tidus !  i  would  love  to  follow  them ! ”  —  –  well,  ‘pon  following  layla,  did  i  have  such  a  delight  in  seeing  SO  MANY  FINAL  FANTASY  MUSES,  and  such  distinct  voices  through  all  of  their  character  portrayals  !!!  then,  i  reached  out  and  sent  a  prompt  to  their  reno,  this  followed  by  some  little  replies  back  and  forth  that  turned  to  “oh  no  i’m  shipping  them  and  i've  never  shipped  aerith  and  reno  before,  what  is  this  sorcery!?”  and  getting  to  know  layla  through  discord,  and  through  tumblr  tags  has  been  SO.  EASY.  layla  is  such  a  sweet  conversationalist,  really  approachable,  and  truly  just  such  a  welcoming  presence  that  i  felt  so  comfortable  with  her  through  literally  one  conversation. 

i'll  also  share  that  i  absolutely  love  reading  their  threads  between  squall  +  @callmeteor's  cloud,  and  seeing  the  various  characters  they  write  together.  WEH,  it's  like  watching  two  sweet  souls  playing  barbies  together,  and  i'm  laying  flat  on  my  tummy  kicking  my  feet  behind  my  head  going:  uh  huh,  and  then  what  happens!?  🥺  layla  if  you're  reading  this  (WHICH  I  HOPE  YOU  ARE  JSDGFSD)  i  love  our  aereno ship,  i  love  getting  to  know  you  and  i  can't  wait  to  get  to  know  you  more  and  more,  and  thank  you  for  being  so  patient  with  me  as  i  just  send  you  prompt  after  prompt  but  struggle  to  reply  to  our  threads/messages  JFSHD  i'm  fixing  my  head  on  my  collar,  and  once  it's  wound  on  tight  i'm  coming  to  a  discord  server  Near  You.

DEAR @lumined , A STARTER FOR YOU .

❛   don't  bother  explaining  .   ❜  he  gives  a  dismissive  wave  of  his  hand  ,  as  if  he  hasn't  a  care  in  the  world  .  .  .  because  he  doesn't  ,  and  he's  nothing  if  not  painfully  honest  .  ❛   i  seriously  just  don't  care  .   ❜  the  man  admits  without  a  care  .  whatever's  going  on  ,  he  doesn't  want  any  part  of  it  .  .  .  but  he's  starting  to  think  maybe  he  should  treat  this  guy  a  little  better  if  he  wants  to  get  out  of  this  hellscape  of  wherever  he's  been  wandering  .  the  car  broke  down  a  while  back  and  he's  been  searching  for  his  sister  around  the  cleigne  region  ,  wielding  magic  and  daggers  against  the  daemons  and  battling  the  depression  that  seeps  in  with  the  darkness  .  it's  been  dark  for  awhile  now  .  years  ,  even  .  he's  grown  strong  as  a  hunter  ,  but  if  he  doesn't  find  lilli  soon  ,  he's  not  sure  he'll  be  able  to  handle  anything  at  all  .

❛   just  tell  me  -  you  a  hunter  too  ?  i've  been  looking  for  my  sister  for  fuckin' days  out  here  .   ❜

look me in the eye and say that. ( from conner! )

arkham knight / accepting

it's at this point that it gets on his nerves that it doesn't look like the message was engraved in his skull so he sighs. gets in conner's personal space and stares at him right in the eyes like he's been told. "as i said, i don't care if you're a super or not, you so much think you've hurt tim you apologise, you have an argument? you work through this shit. or else i'm putting a bullet right in your fucking skull you hear me?" he points right on his forehead, almost as if he could put a knife at conner's throat but he won't. "you take care of him, or things are gonna get real personal between us buddy." jason knows that dick has already had this talk with him because of course he did just.. less intense but at least he got a point accross with all of this, right?

jason lingers near conner, doesn't meet his eyes yet again but he's staring at his jacket, it's good leather that one he can tell. but he doesn't say much else, looks up at conner "love ain't my thing but one thing i know is you're both together so you work through shit or i'm coming for you if he ever comes to me crying because of something you did" he finally touches the jacket as he touches his shoulder. yep, good leather.
