the issue with growing up in the 2000s and 2010s was like there was this really big push toward "accepting your weirdness" overall but they meant like idk wearing mismatched socks or something not being tangibly beyond the norm in any way shape or form
howdy friend! Just wanted to send a quick ask and apologize? Saw you’r most recent post about the DC matchups. I just wanted to say sorry, especially if I pushed you into writing something you’re not comfortable with. Much love <3
Hello friend! And no worries at all, one of the exceptions I made was for you bc we're friends, and I had no problem with writing for you
I promise you didn't push me to do anything, if I'd had an issue with writing it, I wouldn't have done it
My only problem now is that people see that I did two DC matchups and even though DC isn't in my writing list, will still request them
No hard feelings at all though, you didn't do anything wrong : )
Hi friend! If it’s okay I’d like to request a romantic Trigun Stampede matchup?
I’m a trans male and am panromantic as well as asexual so gender is not a concern to me. I’m a January Capricorn and an INFP.
I have been told I have a very big personality, with people I trust/am close to. I talk loud and fast and am very quick to laugh, I tend to flit pretty quickly from one hyperfixation on a hobby or topic to another. I’m the person people always go to for comfort, could be considered the ‘therapist friend’. I’m a perfectionist, if something I think I’m good at goes badly I tend to be very very hard on myself. I’m also really bad with social queues, I take jokes way too far more often than not but am very bad at recognizing jokes myself, unless it’s explicitly stated I tend to take most things overly seriously. I also constantly need reassurance
In a parter I look at someone patient and good at communication. Especially when it comes to their feelings and boundaries. As previously stated I’m really bad at recognizing when someone is uncomfortable so I need someone who will be willing to telling me how they’re feeling instead of just shutting down and expecting me to figure out what’s wrong. It is also really important to me that my partner likes physical affection, touch is my main love language both giving and receiving, I like to cling, so whoever I end up with needs to be willing to let me hold their hand or hug them randomly or mess with their hair idly.
A few of my hobbies are drawing, writing and! Playing my euphonium. Having a creative outlet is very important to me. I enjoy learning new things but am very weary about new activities. I like learning about the thing I’m going to do before I do it.
Thank you so so much in advance, your matchups are always so detailed! Just the best <3
A/n; Hi hi!! I'm always glad to do a matchup for you, my friend! And thank you for the kind words :) I always try to put a lot of thought into matchups, so I'm glad that it comes across. I hope you enjoy!
I ship you with...
Milly Thompson!
Milly is big on casual affection and certainly wouldn't mind when you cling to her- in fact, she'd think it's very sweet
Milly will often initiate contact, especially if you're holding yourself back. She's a fan of peppering kisses on your face or hands, and, of course, giving big hugs
I could see you and Milly hopping from interest to interest, whether it be in conversation or practice. Milly is fascinated by whatever you choose to focus on that day. She'll even ask to join you, even if she's unfamiliar or unpracticed with a particular hobby
Milly is a very communicative person, and will be straightforward with you if she feels hurt, overwhelmed, nervous, etc. She won't leave you to guess how she's feeling. Despite being happy-go-lucky, she isn't passive when it comes to voicing her opinions and feelings
Being someone who's very open about how she feels, Milly usually assumes everyone is the same and is surprised when the opposite is true. She always encourages you to speak up for yourself, but will take on that role if for any reason you cannot
Very little goes unsaid with Milly, so expect a lot of observational commentary with little jokes and opinions sprinkled in. If y'all are ever people-watching, it's a very enjoyable experience
Milly is unintentionally really funny. She can be kinda clueless at times, which will lead to some endearing moments and some slightly frustrating ones, but at the end of the day, you always find yourself laughing with her
Milly appreciates your role as the 'therapist friend', however she's quick to worry if she notices that you aren't being taken care of- that's when she'll step in to take on the role of 'therapist friend's for you to have your own time to vent and have someone validate you and hear you out
On that same note, Milly is constantly praising you and offering reassurance- often times you don't even need to ask for it- she just wants you to know you're loved
Milly is also very open when it comes to mistakes. She knows you tend to be hard on yourself if something goes wrong, so she's always there to counteract that overly critical voice in your head
*claws at your door like a cat* hello hello!! i’m here to request utowin x male or ftm reader!! headcanons or full fic, take your pick. maybe reader who’s very touch averse and utowin who likes to have a hand on him all the time?
◉ Synopsis; touch averse reader x touch starved Utowin
◉ Content; romantic scenario, male reader, slight angst, fluff
◉ A/n; Hi!!! I'm so happy to be able to write for you again. This request inspired me to write my first fic piece in a long while. I'm so sorry if it didn't turn out good. I did my best to characterize Utowin accurately but lmk if you have any feedback : ) Enjoy!
Annoyance bubbled under your skin as Utowin stopped next to you in the market, placing a hand on the small of your back as he stands beside you.
"Been lookin' all over for ya, handsome."
His voice is soft, teasing. It almost brings a smile to your face, how flirtatious he's being. But still, you couldn't help the discomfort from rising in your body. You exhale through your nose, nostrils flaring as you gaze down at the ground. You didn't have the heart to tell him to fuck off, the way you could with strangers, or to give you space, like with your previous partners, who always took offence to your independent nature.
Of course you didn't want to take Utowin for granted, it's just-
"Hey, y'alright?"
Utowin's hand moves up your back, rubbing soothing circles against you. Even through the fabric, his touch makes your skin crawl.
All you wanted was a break, some space- but how do you ask that of him when he's being so gentle? He means no harm, he couldn't know- you haven't told him. Even so, the frustration pooling in your chest was beginning to reach a breaking point.
"I'm fine," you manage to speak, but your voice is tight with obvious frustration.
Utowin's eyebrows furrow and his lips pull into a slight frown.
"Doesn't sound like it. Need t' leave?"
Not wanting to make a scene in the marketplace, you stifle an annoyed groan as Utowin reaches for your hand, beginning to lead you away from the crowd.
"Sure," you grumble as you and Utowin make your way back home.
—
"I dunno, he's just been more distant lately. 'M not even sure he wants me around..."
The comment you overheard while Utowin was talking with Luluci kept playing in your mind. Over the last few weeks you'd tried dropping hints that you wanted some space, but you never wanted this. You never wanted to make Utowin feel unloved or unwanted.
But now, here you are, stuck at some hoity-toity witch event that the Knights Moralis were playing security guards for- not even able to talk to Utowin to work things out because he's needed elsewhere.
Insecurities about your strained relationship plague you as you walk through the crowds trying to find something- anything- to distract yourself. You eventually find a secluded alleyway, where you take refuge.
What if he finds someone else?
That particular thought made your heart ache. The idea of Utowin finding someone else to be touchy with makes jealousy swirl in your chest. No matter how much you want space, you wanted Utowin more.
"Love?"
Speak of the devil and he shall appear. As you turn to face Utowin, you notice he looks... Smaller. He's turned in on himself, sheepishly grabbing the back of his neck and shuffling on his feet.
This can't be good.
"I gotta talk t'ya about somethin'..."
This really can't be good.
"I've uh... Been thinkin..."
You prepare yourself for the worst. You're certain your worst fears are about to come to light, and you can't help the way your chest heaves with every breath you take.
"Y'know how I feel about ya... But I'm not sure how ya feel about me sometimes..."
He trails off, glancing up at you to gauge your reaction. His brows furrow when he notices the way your breaths have gotten heavier and the tears welling in your eyes.
"I just.. Wanna know we're on the same page... Or somethin' like that," he continues awkwardly, his words not sounding like his own. He must've consulted Luluci or Galuga to help him with his little speech. If you weren't so distressed, you'd find it amusing.
The words hang between the two of you like dead air, heavy and stifling.
After a few long, agonizing seconds of silence, you find the words you've been wanting to say, and they tumble out before you have time to stop yourself.
"I'm sorry, I just needed some space but I didn't know how to tell you because I didn't want to hurt your feelings because you're so- you're so great and kind and affectionate- I just... can't handle all the touching sometimes- and it's not your fault, it's mine-"
Your waterfall of words are silenced as Utowin chuckles. You're spilling your guts and he's laughing?
"Ah that's such a relief- here I was thinkin that..." his smile fades as he continues, "that maybe ya didn't want me around- that.. You don't, uh... love me... anymore."
That's what he's been worrying about this whole time?
"Of course I-"
"Utowin! Break's over. Get back to your station!" Galuga's voice sounds from around a corner, signaling your limited time left together.
"I love you too, darlin'," Utowin winks at you, instinctively leaning forward to give you a peck on the cheek before he stops himself.
"Ah- right, that's gonna take some gettin' used to."
You smile at his consideration, and hold your hand up, offering your pinkie finger to him. He takes the hint, linking his pinkie with yours and kissing his hand.
"I'll see ya when all this is over, yeah?"
You nod, unlinking your pinkie from his as he heads towards the entrance to the alleyway.
"Don't get into too much trouble, love," Utowin winks again as he leaves the alleyway, leaving you with your thoughts and the distant sounds of people chattering.
You hold your hand to your chest, sighing with relief. The feeling of Utowin's pinkie linked with yours replays in your mind, but not unpleasantly so.
As you walk out of the alleyway, you catch sight of Utowin running back to his post and getting scolded by Easthies. You chuckle to yourself as Utowin sticks his tongue out at Easthies's back.
infinite games but no bacon or infinite bacon but no games
Oooo fuck... I gotta say infinite games with no bacon. I love me some games. Especially if we're talkin my video games. I need my Dispatch and Pokemon and Hollow Knight and Flinthook and-
I was wondering if you could write about him reacting seeing reader cry for the first time?
Could be because of an injury, because someone made them cry or just frustrating, i will leave it to!
Thank you!!!
◉ Synopsis; Utowin sees you cry for the first time
◉ Content; hurt/comfort, fluff, Utowin being a little shit (as per usual), reader and Utowin live together
◉ A/n; hi there! Thanks for coming back and submitting another request! I hope you like how these turned out. Enjoy!
Over and over again, you practiced, and practiced, and practiced more until your hands gave out from exhaustion. And yet you still couldn't get this blasted spell right
utowin heard your frustrated yell from across your shared home. Immediately, Utowin is rushing to your side, believing you may be hurt
When he finds you in the study with no visible injurie, but instead, tears streaming down your cheeks and countless crumpled up pieces of paper, Utowin quickly pieces together what's going on
Utowin has been in this situation before- frustrated over not getting a spell right and beating himself up over it, and sure, he'd helped you with a fair share of spells, but nothing had brought you to tears before
In fact, Utowin can't recall a time he ever saw you cry. He's stunned, stuck in place watching you bawl your eyes out in frustration, snot and tears running down your face
Once he's over his initial surprise, Utowin awkwardly approaches you, attempting to crack a joke to lighten the mood- only for it to make things significantly worse
Seeing that a lighthearted quip isn't going to get either of you out of this situation, Utowin switches his tactics. With a hand raised to the back of his neck, Utowin takes a breath and makes a genuine attempt at comfort
Emotional vulnerability isn't his strong suit, I'll just say that. However, he's willing to try if it means eventually bringing a smile back to your face
Utowin sits beside you, hesitantly resting a hand on your back and opening up about the times he'd failed at spells or didn't do well in school, how he was an outcast with nothing going for him- how hopeless it all made him feel
As your crying subsides, Utowin finally faces you, explaining that no matter the hardships of his past, having you around has been the best thing that's happened to him- that no matter what you're going through, he's there to help
Seeing you cry makes Utowin's heart ache in a way he didn't know was possible
Seeing you cry makes Utowin's heart ache in a way he didn't know was possible. He hates seeing you in so much pain, whether it be physical or emotional, and vows to do whatever he can to bring a smile to your face
isekai'd!reader who actually short circuits every time you see olruggio and qifrey because the art of them on paper was already pretty but in person they are blindingly beautiful. Like Qifrey is practically ethereal, and Olruggio's got the brightest blue eyes you have ever seen.
you stare alot because holy shit they still look fake even when they're standing right in front you
i’ve never been the biggest fan of them traveling to the real world tbh 🤧 maybe temporarily but not permanently. this world is boring enough I need ✨escapism✨
but olruggio learning how to use a phone would v funny

◉ A/n; hiii!! Thank you so much for requesting! I'm so excited to be able to write a request for you. I hope I did it justice! Enjoy : )
Lets be real, there will be times when Utowin is the cause of or exacerbates your migraines. He's a ragebaiter through and through, and often gets so caught up in the bit that he'll forget to stop
When you snap at him that he needs to shut it and that you need to lie down in a dark room, Utowin immediately feels horrible
He does his best to take responsibility, getting you to a quiet, dark room where you can lay down and ride out your migraine. Once you're settled he does whatever he can to take care of you
Even when Utowin isn't the cause of/exacerbating you migraines, he feels a sense of duty to you, wanting to do what he can to alleviate your stress and pain.
Utowin is generally not the most responsible, but when it comes to you, he steps up his game. Utowin is always carrying pain meds and water, having ice packs ready, and even on occasion has a cold coffee for small amounts of caffeine (that last one Luluci or Galuga likely told him about)
Despite his carefree demeanor, Utowin takes your health and safety very seriously, he just has some trouble with how to go about it sometimes
He can't help let it slip how worried he is about you, either- his brows furrowed and lips tugged down in an uncharacteristic frown, constantly bringing up your well being in conversation with others
Utowin's the type of guy to be super doting and thoughtful when taking care of you. He's surprisingly gentle and takes extra consideration if or when you have to be moved during a migraine
If for any reason you can't be laid down in a dark room, Utowin offers to over your eyes and uses a spell to help cool you down
Hell, he'll even carry you back home if the situation calls for it. Doesn't matter what he's in the middle of- if you need him, Utowin will drop everything to be by your side
While a bit clumsy and juvenile with how he shows his affection, Utowin can also be incredibly thoughtful and caring. He reserves that side of himself for you, his most cherished beloved
