@escapedartgeek​ told Laura,  “  this is just a blob  ” 

“Oh.” a flush colors her cheeks and Laura averts her gaze with some embarrassment. “I thought perhaps it was abstract.... are you building up to something, or is this just practice?”

*wraps a blanket around them both and cuddles into his side with a bowl of popcorn to share*(Seven)

      Normally Yoosung would be the one to visit Seven at his bunker for the sake of convenience considering the hacker was always waist deep in work, but the change in scenery was a lot nicer than he’d probably admit. It took him by surprise when Seven suggested they watch a movie at Yoosung’s apartment that day but he was more than happy, ecstatic even, to say yes. It was an understatement to say that he was touched that his boyfriend wanted to go out of his way to come to him instead, and having him there in his home felt too good to be true. With a shared blanket around the couple’s shoulders, Yoosung leaned affectionately into the other as the film began to play.

      Eyeing the bowl of popcorn positioned between the two, he plucked a piece between two fingers and popped one into his mouth. The snack stirred up nostalgia from his childhood when he, his sister and his parents would sit around on family nights and choose something for the Kims to enjoy together. Thinking back on those memories brought a sad smile to his face since he knew he didn’t visit as often as he should nor did he ever really call his relatives, and he suddenly found himself a little homesick. Glancing at Seven from the corner of his eye, he was thankful for the sense of family the other provided whenever he was around. Loneliness didn’t drain him as much as it used two since the pair opened up to one another romantically, and nights like these made him feel whole. He silently wondered if the feeling was mutual though his heart perked up with confidence that the answer was yes. 

      Picking up another piece of popcorn, Yoosung gave a gentle nudge into Seven’s side. With a smile he lifted it up to the other’s mouth.

      “Here! Say ah~!”

shipping stuff

Answer the following for your muse(s) so people know how shipping works on your blog. REPOST. Don’t reblog.

WHAT’S YOUR OTP FOR YOUR MUSE?: With Naprem, it’s obvious. Naprain will be the death of me, probably. It’s the most problematic OTP I’ve ever had in my life and it fills my life with pain and misery and loathing, but... man. She loves him so much. @skrain400babiesdukat is too good to me, and their romance melts me into a big pile of sad shouting goo.

WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO RP WHEN IT COMES TO SHIPPING?: My range is pretty big, and my sheer number of AUs proves it -- I’ve played Naprem as a mistress, as the leader of a harem, as a rebel leader, as an Ambassador, as a witch in love with a witch hunter, etc. I’m more than willing to rp angst, emotional manipulation and abuse. I pretty much only draw the line at sexual abuse and rape. 

HOW LARGE DOES THE AGE GAP HAVE TO BE TO MAKE IT UNCOMFORTABLE?: I think I telegraphed my disdain for huge age gaps pretty clearly when I made Naprem as close in age to Skrain as she is. Skrain’s old by human standards, but Naprem is solidly in Bajoran middle age, which is also old by human standards, and I did that on purpose. I didn’t want her youth to factor into their already very unbalanced power dynamic. It’s bad enough without being outright predatory. Basically, age gaps make me uncomfortable when someone in a relationship is closer to childhood than they are to the age of the person they’re seeing. And that’s not universal (since I rp with a lot of immortals, who kind of jump that line) but it is fairly consistent.

ARE YOU SELECTIVE WHEN SHIPPING?: With most characters, no. With Naprem...yes. Very. Her singular, deep love for Dukat is a huge part of her character, and I’ve never been able to ship her with anyone else in an organic way. I’m very open to one-sided, unreciprocated ships with her, but she’s a one-man kind of girl, and I’ve made my peace with that. Sorry y’all. :/

HOW FAR DO STEAMY MOMENTS HAVE TO GO BEFORE THEY’RE CONSIDERED NSFW?: Just to be safe, I put most stuff past “kissing with all their clothes on” under a cut. I rp at work, so I’m more conservative about when and how aggressively I cut and tag stuff that you wouldn’t want your boss reading over your shoulder. I also list trigger warnings in the body of the post, because I don’t want people to get blindsided if they’re on mobile and can’t blacklist their triggers.

WHO ARE OTHER MUSES YOU SHIP YOUR MUSE WITH?: Shout out to @skrain400babiesdukat who has my love and loyalty always. I also ship her (one-sided) with an OC I’ve waved around before -- a guy named Dejaa Renul -- who used to be the captain of her personal security detail. Honestly, I ship her a little with Kira Meru too, but I’ve never found another Meru player after @kinkyfuckeryoftas.

DOES ONE HAVE TO ASK TO SHIP WITH YOU?: Yes. Obviously, Dukat players can kind of expect to hop right in, but I really need to have some time to establish what shared history we’re working with. With anyone else, you’re more than welcome to pitch me on what you’re thinking. I’m not saying I’ll never ship Naprem with anyone but Skrain, but I haven’t yet. So if you’re interested, let me know what you’re thinking. But definitely don’t jump right into it without asking.

HOW OFTEN DO YOU LIKE TO SHIP?: With Naprem, the answer is “not very often.” This isn’t true with my other characters, but Naprem’s central relationship is intrinsic to her character. So...not very often.

ARE YOU MULTISHIP?: Not really on this account.

ARE YOU SHIP OBSESSED OR SHIP MORE-OR-LESS?: Ship obsessed. With that one ship. #otp hell (But honestly please just give my girl some real relationships with nuance and evolution and plot? I vastly prefer that.)

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SHIP IN YOUR CURRENT FANDOM?: Naprain 4 lyfe

FINALLY, HOW DOES ONE SHIP WITH YOU?: Naturally, organically, when we’ve established history and chemistry! Let the ship evolve, my child. If it’s meant to be, it will be. (My muse is demi, so it takes her a lot of time to feel attracted to people. Give her time.)

@escapedartgeek​ from this

“No, no- I love it-” Eva continues to stare at the piece, expression a mask of contemplation. she nods along with the explanation and, finally, pulls her gaze away to look at them directly. 

a smile finally hugs her lips, and she nods far more enthusiastically now, continuing, “Absolutely! That’s one of the great things about art, and something I’ve sorely missed seeing.” 

Curiosity tils her head, a question in her eyes. after a moment, she speaks it, 

“I don’t suppose you have more I could look at? Or any for sale?”

@escapedartgeek requested Talia!

“You just get off the last ark?” Talia doesn’t mind doing their part to help out around the Nexus, even when that means just regular greeting and getting people where they need to go. “I’m here to help you find where you need to go.”

@o-rusted-heart​ from this 

She takes the offering quickly enough with one hand, the other slipping into her pocket to find a lighter. Once lit, Celia’s attention returns to the synth, quiet contemplation in her gaze. It only lasts a long moment, however, before a wry smirk finds its way to her lips. 

“Can’t figure out whether ‘sweetheart’ is an insult or not-” words are somewhat muffled by the obstruction, but she continues regardless - “but I suppose it’s more an indicator of your age than much else.” Not quite a dig, but certainly more than an idle comment; her eyes are practically glued to him, searching for even the most minute reaction... As much as one could expect from an older generation synth, at least. 

absentminded, she takes a long drag, keeping the cigarette gently between her teeth as one hand flicks the lighter on and the other takes it to flip between her fingers. her now-free hand grasps the cigarette, holding it so she might exhale in Nick’s direction. with that, her gaze moves away, and she ignores the suggestion of her return to Diamond City. 

“Do these even do anything for you?”
