Rules: Put your music on shuffle, and answer these questions. When you’re finished, tag 10 followers.
1. Title of first song describes how you die: Britney Spears - 3. Apparently I die in the throes of a wild threesome. I can think of worse ways to go, lol.
2. Second song describes your love life: Umbrella - Rihanna. That’s actually really sweet.
3. Third song will be played at your wedding: Spectrum - Zedd. Well, Jordan is a Zedd fan.
4. Add “in my pants” to the title of the fourth song: Stiff Kittens (in my pants) - Blaqk Audio. Well now...that’s awkward.
5. Fifth song will be played at your funeral: Closer - Nine Inch Nails. Ummm...I’m not sure this is appropriate. Please don’t fuck the corpse.
6. Sixth song is your theme song: It’s My Life - No Doubt. Yes. Good.
7. Seventh song will be played when you are thinking about someone you love: Kathy’s Song - Apoptygma Berzerk. Well, this song tends to give me OTP feels, so it works.
8. Add “with a shovel and a screwdriver” to the title of the eighth song: Shots (with a shovel and a screwdriver) - LMFAO. It sounds like a bad idea.
9. Ninth song will describe your week: Scientist - The Dandy Warhols. Yup.
10. Tenth song will play when you miss someone: Boom Clap - Charlie XCX. Eh.
I see lots of MBTI going on. Funny thing that, I kind of collect books on the subject...
If you have a ship (or friendship) that you'd like to see the type dynamics for after doing the other meme...give me character names and MBTI types, and I'll publish a thing on what the match is like!
And you can spam me. These would all be taken from one of my fave books on the subject, right off my e-reader, rather than slogging through my skullmeats like the Chinese zodiac project.
S:What's a headcanon you have?That's rather broad. Lessee here, one of my strongest weird ones is that Mayuri is a synasthete.
B:A pairing you initially didn’t consider but someone changed your mind.I don't want to talk about it. I'm not ready to crawl out of my box of shame. I still hate it but it haunts my dreams and now has a playiist that sounds like sex. If you really want to know, deanon in my inbox and I will tell you privately if you are who I'm pretty sure you are. I'm not ready to give a public endorsement yet.
Though I will say I was really late to the party with Korrasami. And I wasn't too hot on Fang x Lightning until my husband started to ship it.
I should have just said that in the first place, but I'm being destroyed in my core and it's hard to ignore it so I had to say something.
G:What was your first fandom?Redwall was my first ever conscious fandom that I wrote fic for and everything. Like from when I was 9 to when I was 13.
6. My favorite video game console will probably always be the PS2. It has all of my good memories on it. My very first game. My first video game fandoms. It was the first gift my now husband ever bought for me. I love the xbox and generally buy for it because the controller fits my hands better, but yeah. PS2 will always be special
8. Hahaha. Yeah. I had a boyfriend of 2 years, and the moment I came and moved into our dorm floor. I knocked on a certain door and...someone was plugging in her PS2 and then came to introduce herself. I knew right then I was doomed. DOOMED. Hahaha. Wait...did you know about this?
9. Yes I would go platinum blonde! And I plan on it. I want to do a cosplay for Claymore after I reach a good weight, and you can't be a Claymore without some shade of platinum for hair and silver contacts for your eyes. I'd rather not deal with a wig.
24. I haven't really gone anywhere lately. I work at home anyhow, and I don't have the cash to travel atm. I guess the last thing I did that wasn't necessary to survival was going to the theatre to see the new Hobbit movie with Fearless Roomie.

1. (For A Good Time Call) Urahara/Mayuri
Yes, he already knew this was Urahara, as Urahara was the only person who ever called him in the middle of the day for no real reason at all. Urahara always kept up a pretense of friendliness, but Akon never could shake the suspicion that there was something else that the man wanted from it. Urahara was too nosy, too clever, and Akon could tell when he was fishing for something new and interesting. That was the point of manipulation. Akon knew, after all, because he did it, too.
2. (Sick) Mayuri/Akon
Mayuri had come to him earlier in the day and mentioned something to him about demonstrating a new product to the seated officers of the 12th, one they had rigorously tested together. Akon didn't really give it a second thought; they had developed hundreds of products side by side. He usually acquiesced to Mayuri's requests anyway, so when he agreed to it, he didn't expect anything different than usual.
Now, he really wished he'd paid more attention to exactly which product Mayuri told him he wanted to demonstrate...
3. (Solve et Coagula: End) Urahara/Mayuri
There is no such thing as an end.
One project flows into another, which flows into another, and then the next again. Ideas only come to an end for the uncreative, for idiots, for the hopeless.
The end of all things can be interpreted as the beginning of the next. The end of speech was the beginning of silence; the end of a cliff was the beginning of a new stretch of sky.
4. (Solve et Coagula; Outsides) Urahara/Mayuri
He had seen an old man, who had lived his long, yet empty life entirely within the Maggot’s Nest ask for a pair of chopsticks and slink like an animal into the darkness of his hallway. It was obvious that he didn’t see the young man huddled in the cell. The man inserted one choptstick deeply into each nostril and knelt down as if he were bowing with gratitude. His head bobbed one, two, three times and his face slammed down onto the floor with the momentum. Mayuri could hear the fragile bones of his inner cranium crack as the wood plunged into the base of the brain. The death was relatively quick and clean. The blood pooled from him, slowly but steadily, with a thick even line; no splatters, no gashes.
5. (Solve et Coagula: Not Enough) Urahara/Mayuri, Yoruichi/Soifon
Soifon grew angrier, angstier, and even more bitter. She stormed darker and darker, twisting more terribly each day. Her squad knew that she had never been the most cheerful girl, but after the disappearance no one had seen her smile. All of her passion turned into ambition. After all, Soifon was far too young; she didn't understand that love and hate are not opposite emotions but different sides of a breathtaking spectrum.
Mayuri, however, already had several coping mechanisms in place. Each passing year made him a bit less and less human, until he looked in the mirror and stopped recognizing his own face. The real him was unfeeling, skeletal, and bearing its teeth at the world. He got out the paint and began to draw a new one.
Unlike Soifon, he fully understood the spectrum; the opposite of both words was indifference. Indifference would never disillusion him or steer him wrong.
6. (Solve et Coagula: Triangle) Urahara/Mayuri
“I’m not sure. I don’t really find ears ‘cute’, as you so charmingly put it.“ Mayuri attempted to ignore the breath pulsing at his ear, but it kept making him fall into involuntary twitches. Thank goodness his were gone! As if he needed one more way for Urahara to distract him from anything important—which he had an uncanny knack of doing. “I think I may still have them in a jar somewhere, if you’re really that interested. If it’s really your thing, I’ll sew them back on for a few hours and rip them back off when you’re done!”
He shot the girl a wolfish grin. Her face went a little pale and green and she no longer shot furtive glances at the couple. At the bing of the 3rd floor, and several “discreet” jabs at the open door button, both the girl and her boyfriend hurried out the door without a second glance.
“You know, we really have to work on your people skills if you are to come around here and help me on field missions,” remarked Urahara. “Ah, well.”
7. (Solve et Coagula: Square) Urahara/Yoruichi/Mayuri/Soifon
The universe is bound by four elements: wind and fire; water and earth.
Though we speak of atoms, of compounds—fission and fusion, these combinations do little to explain the composition of the human soul. Or the universe created by their equilibrium.
The horizon was formed when the air met the earth, the day that Yoruichi’s 3rd seat moved his belongings into a spare room.
When Lady Shihouin took in the girl, a cool drink of water, the earth richened. The air was forced to live in the same space, and together they became effervescent.
The addition of fire was more natural still—it fed from the air, was contained and maintained by the earth. When combined with the water—they steamed.
8. (Solve et Coagula: Earth) Urahara/Mayuri
“For you,” said Urahara. He twirled a thistle between two fingers. It was the flower of their division, the symbol of their work; vengeance, strictness, and above all independence. Unlike the frail plants that decorated the other insigniae, it stood alone, defending itself with its spiky stems. Where others saw only pain, it took a special person to see the beauty in its deference.
SHINGEKI NO KYOJIN/ATTACK ON TITAN
9. (Last Rites) Levi/Eren/Hanji
“Do you want to stay untouched?” Levi crossed his hands across his chest. “Or are you gonna rely on your squadmates?”
Eren wiped his sweaty palms on the front of his pants. He had never thought of it that way before. Levi was right. There was no guarantee that they’d make it back from the mission. There was no guarantee that he wouldn’t go berserk in his titan form and somehow die by the hands of the ones he was supposed to protect. And forget about his own comfort—his wants didn’t matter, he had been saved from certain death by Levi and his squad. What is the cost of a life?
Bertholdt drank and then lifted Annie up from her stool. “It’s a good thing that you’re so little. It makes it that much easier to hold you.”
“Yeah, and if you were any bigger, you wouldn’t fit in our bed,” Reiner said. He grabbed her from Bertholdt and threw her over a shoulder. “C’mon, I’m taking you upstairs.”
It always intrigued her how different their bodies were. They were both so strong, but with Reiner, the muscle was so thick she could barely feel the bones they worked so hard to move. Bertholdt’s power wasn’t showy like Reiner, it was subtle in the way his big frame was knit together. She slid her hands down, undoing the buttons of each of their pants, her left hand a little slower than her right.
MASS EFFECT
11. (The Enemy of My Enemy) Orinia/Kahlee Sanders
Kahlee regarded Orinia’s face with curiosity. Humans had often remarked that female turian features were very much like a human skull—something of decay, of revulsion, but she didn’t see it now. She ran a hand down the side of Orinia’s face, tracing where the hard plates of her face joined, over the deeply stained tattoos from her homeworld. Again, she marvled at the texture, smooth and hard like leather, but still more rigid, like a living metal.
Orinia caught her gaze. There was something thrilling about looking her deeply in her sharp eyes, electric, like looking into the eyes of a dragon and seeing yourself reflected in them. They were magnetic, drawing her in. Closer, closer. Her lips grazed Orinia’s cheek.
12. (Veteran) Wrex/FemShep
It is always be odd for him to see her like this. The leather of her dress cuts tight to her form. Her arms and shoulders are bare, as is the length of her neck and the swell of her breasts that could be seen from the plunging neck line. The Shepard in his mind was always wears combat armor—she is krogan tough. This soft Shepard can be tossed, crushed, stabbed, or shot and it would be a gamble as to whether she’d make it into the morning. After curing the genophage and killing thresher maws and reapers on foot, he calls her an honorary krogan. But, like it or not, despite all of the battles they shared, enemies they conquered, legends they built, Shepard is still a human.
13. (Overlord) Geth Prime/Daro'Xen
“Creator Xen, you wished for us to serve you, but instead, this time, you will serve us.”
Xen could taste the fear rising in the back of her throat. It struck the pit of her stomach with an arrow, the irony of the created being the overlord of their creators. All that she had worked for, all that she had yearned for was lost forever, gone in fire and smoke.
The outline of what had to be Shepard’s hand slid down the side of the enclosure. Faintly, a hearty sigh of pleasure could be heard, the huge ball rattling against the metalwork that held it in place. The blue glow of biotics illuminated it for just a second, showing the outlines of two bodies intertwined.
“Ahem.” Garrus cleared his throat. He looked to the softly moaning ball and back again, letting his eyes wander around the room, but still they were drawn back to the obvious. “It certainly sounds…animated in there.”
Wrex squinted, trying his best to follow the outlines hidden behind the reinforced plastic. One body lay beneath the other, stretched out catlike, while her partner touched her…
