PROMPTS FOR GETTING DEFENSIVE *  assorted dialogue, adjust as necessary

i said i'm fine. you don't have to keep asking.

i told you i'm all right. would you just leave?

you didn't have to come all this way for that.

i'm good! i don't need your help!

you don't have to get all defensive about it.

you just go on ahead. i'll be fine on my own.

i said it's nothing.

i can fix this myself.

just go somewhere else and leave me alone.

do me a favor and stop asking me that.

i told you what i know.

i'm just trying to help you. that's it.

i don't know any more than that.

would you just leave me alone?

if you'd just give me a second, i'll handle it.

i offer my help, and this is how you thank me?

stop pushing me away. you can't do this alone.

you keep saying you're fine, but i know you're not fine.

stop lying to me! i can see right through it!

you're just making it harder on yourself.

i handle everything myself. this time is no different.

you've got a real attitude problem, you know that?

we could get this done faster if you'd just let me help.

i'm not hiding anything.

that's not what i said at all.

that's a lie and you know it.

i don't need you to babysit me.

would you just go?

you're absolutely insufferable. you know that, right?

i hate it when you push me away like this.

how many times do i have to tell you i'm fine?

stop treating me like a baby.

i don't need you breathing over my shoulder.

get out of here before i make you leave.

there's nothing in there!

i'm not lying!

don't bullshit me. i know what you did.

we're going to get to the bottom of this.

i told you everything i know. can i go now?

i'm not saying another word.

i can't help you if you don't let me.

go away. get out of here.

i'm better equipped at facing these things alone.

you didn't see anything.

i wish you would just talk to me and tell me what's going on.

i can help you. i'd really like to help you.

just take a few deep breaths.

i'm not here to cause a problem. i'm here to help.

REASONS TO CUP A FACE. ( A PROMPT LIST. )

with the help of some very talented and amazing friends, i present to you an unexpected, very spontaneous meme list based on the beautiful art of cupping someone's face! there's a mix of romantic and platonic here, and even a few that defy the boundaries of normal relationship dynamics! i hope you enjoy! as always; DO NOT ADD TO THIS LIST NOR CLAIM IT AS YOUR OWN!

[KISS]: sender cups the receivers face in their hands before drawing them closer for a kiss.

[CHECK]: after an unexpectedly violent situation, sender frantically rushes to check if the receiver is okay, cupping their face to look closer.

[CLEAN]: sender affectionately wipes a smudge of sauce from the corner of the receiver's mouth, cupping their face in the process.

[LIFT]: sender gently cups the receiver's face and lifts their chin so the receiver is looking up at them.

[COMFORT]: sender cups a distressed receiver's face in their hands and steadies them by resting their foreheads together.

[ATTENTION]: during an important conversation, the sender takes the receiver's face in their hands and firmly directs their focus on them.

[MAKE-UP]: while applying make-up on the receiver's face, the sender cups their face in order to keep them still.

[PRIDE]: after the receiver succeeds in a remarkable achievement, the sender cups their face and tilts their foreheads together to express how proud they are of them.

[WHISPER]: in order to have a private, hushed conversation with the receiver, the sender cups their face and draws them close to make sure they can be heard.

[HAIR]: in the process of pushing the receiver's hair back from their face, the sender lets their hand rest against the receiver's cheek a moment longer.

[GROUND]: during a moment of intense emotional stress, the sender gently takes the receiver's face in their hands to ground them until they're calmer again.

[WONDER]: unable to comprehend how incredible the receiver is, the sender decides to simply cup their face in their hands and marvel at them instead.

[LAST LOOK]: before going into a situation that may result in their death, the sender takes a moment to cup the unaware receiver's face in their hand, just to take a final look of admiration at them before they go.

[SACRIFICE]: the sender cups the receiver's face tenderly to distract them, right before shoving them out of the way (to safety) and facing an attack alone in order to buy the receiver enough time to escape.

[BELIEF]: in a moment where the receiver is lacking in self-confidence, the sender cups their face tenderly and professes their faith in the receiver's abilities.

[DISBELIEF]: after the receiver has done something completely unexpected (and reckless) the stunned sender cups their face in their hands while trying to get them to explain why the hell they did it.

[BETRAYAL]: trying to keep the receiver calm before the big reveal, the sender cups their face gently to keep them steady, and then reveals that they're the villain.

[WOUND]: after the receiver has been wounded, the sender tries to keep them calm and conscious by cupping their face in their hands and talking to them to keep them focused.

[INJURY]: after having been badly wounded themselves, the sender tries to reassure the frantic receiver by cupping their face and comforting them.

[RAMSAY]: after the receiver commits a culinary crime, the sender presses two slices of bread against either side of their face, cupping their face to hold the bread in place, and calls them an idiot sandwich.

for all <3 // how many pillows does your muse sleep with? are they comfortable with just one or do they like to be cozy? does your muse have trouble committing to others? are they comfortable being this way, or would they prefer to be different? Does your muse identify with their gender assigned at birth? Has that changed over time?If your muse sees a carousel, do they immediately want to ride it or do they think that's too childish? Do they wish on shooting stars? What are some things your muse finds annoying? Is it easy to get on their nerves? Is your muse super cuddly or do they require their space?hat is your muse most likely to do while in a doctor’s waiting room? Watch whatever’s on the TV, read the old magazines, check their phone, or will they just space out?

Caine: 2 pillows, typically, but he can sleep with 1 just fine. he doesn't tend to have commitment issues? maybe a little bit to get to where he wants to commit to someone, in any means, but once he gets there he's ride or die. he has no problems with how he is, thinks it's fine to be a bit hesitant to commit to someone. he identifies as the gender he was assigned at birth, & this has not changed. oh he would immediately want to ride a carousel no doubt about it. & yeah, he wishes on shooting stars if he sees them.

he finds people who think they're better than everyone else annoying, & slow walkers are... very annoying to him, bc he just is always moving fast, tbh. very easy to get on his nerves, but he can typically be over it quick. he is a veryyyy cuddly person. if he's in a waiting room, he's going to sit on his phone, walk around, flip through magazines, sit with a bouncing leg-- he has to busy himself, so he'll do everything & anything while he waits.

Dixon: 2-3 pillows; if he had to, he could sleep with 1, but he prefers at least 2 for neck support. he has no problem committing to someone. he identifies as the gender he was assigned at birth, & this has not changed. if he sees a carousel, he'll want to get on it but think that's too childish-- Caine can get him to ride, though, easily. & he might wish on a shooting star, from time to time. quietly to himself.

people who chew too loud, rude people at his work, people like his family who view mutants as lesser people are a few things that annoy him. it's not easy to get on his nerves, he's overall a pretty chill guy, just depends. he's cuddly with those he's close to, but typically prefers his space. if he's in a hospital waiting room he'll typically watch whatever is on the tv, or just look at his phone.

Fred: man has a King size bed, & he loves his comfort-- so he's got like 4-5 pillows, tbh. he will not use less than 3. committing himself to someone is not simple for him-- it will take a long time, not something he just is willing to do. & he sees no reason to change this. he identifies as the gender he was assigned at birth, & this has not changed. riding a carousel is for children, & he is not a child. same goes for wishing on stars.

he finds humans annoying, for starters-- but also people who ask stupid questions. it is very easy to get on his nerves, & he will hold a grudge, too, at that. he wants his space; he will only cuddle someone if he's decided they're someone special to him. he rarely goes to the hospital, but if he's in the waiting room he'll be on his phone, or sitting silently.

“Damn…” Kaminari stared after the coupon lady with undisguised awe. He’d been raised to understand the benefits of living within one’s means and saving money wherever and whenever possible, but that was some next-level shit. He turned back to the cashier, setting his soda and candy on the counter.

“I thought most places had like, policies against that sorta thing? My grandfather used to say that extreme couponing was no different than holding a gun to the cash register.” For all he knew, abuelo was still saying that. It had been a while since he’d talked shop with his grandparents.

[trupotential]

Dixon gave a small shrug, finger scratching his cheek as he stared after the woman. He supposed it was impressive -- but he was used to it, by now. The wow factor had worn off for him. But it was funny to see how other people reacted to her.

"Most places do, but for some reason we don't." His attention turned back to the boy, grabbing his soda & candy to scan them. "I mean, all power to her if she has the time & patience to work out what to use with what & get money BACK." He paused, before he let out a soft 'oh' at himself. "Your total is $6.02."

❝ Oh really? You got me curious to see just how good of a time you really are...~ ❞ She hums, moving to rest a hand beneath her chin. Even if she wouldn't point it out, she was definitely getting vibes that she was playing with fire, but she was serious when she said she liked that. Emerald eyes watch as her glass is filled, the dark red wine looking especially appetizing when it was free of charge.

❝ No, you're definitely right. It's not really my scene usually, but sometimes a girl needs a change of scenery, y'know? Little gambling, little risk taking... And I'm definitely not regretting it now, seeing as I met you. ❞

[trupotential]

"Risk taker, huh?" Fred mused, arm resting atop the bar as he leaned against it. "I like that in a woman." Now he didn't always flirt with the guests -- that was just bad business. But that was because he got a lot of humans down here. Besides, she was cute. Could he really be blamed?

"Hope I made your evening, then, doll. You certainly are making mine." The words were practically purred out, as he leaned a little closer to her. "I've just been doin' paperwork most of the night, & let me tell you; you're a lot more ... appealing."

Now here was a guy who knew how to speak Jareth’s language. He immediately perked up at the suggestion, regarding the other man with interest. Jareth didn’t have bad nights, and they few he did have he made certain he wouldn’t remember. But memories of his mother, his childhood, his ex-boyfriend had been cropping up recently, effectively souring the mood of any activity he tried to partake in the last few evenings. Maybe he needed to try out something new for a change.

Sneaking off to a dump just to break shit was exactly the sort of thing that would give Fay a heart attack if she ever heard of her son doing such a thing. That thought alone improved his mood immensely.

“Who am I to pass up an invitation like that?” Jareth grinned, rising to his feet and dusting his hands off on his pants. Perhaps this evening could be salvaged after all.

[trupotential]

"Ha, great!" Caine's hands planted on his hips, chest puffing out a bit. He didn't always meet someone who shared a love for breaking shit -- he'd tried to get Dixon to join him in the past, but he's always busy with studying or work. Or some other excuse to not go to a dump to break shit.

"Follow me, dude-! Let's go destroy shit! WOOHOO!" & Caine was off, a pep in his step as he held back from straight up sprinting towards the dump. It wasn't too far of a trek, but Caine did take some odd back paths to get there -- didn't want to risk anyone seeing where they went. He'd gotten in trouble with the police before, which he always thought was stupid; the dump wasn't used anymore, what did it matter if he broke stuff there?

Once they reached their destination, Caine kicked down a piece of plastic he used to hide the hole he made in the gate. "Ta-daaaa! VIP entrance, just for us." He winked before crouching down to wiggle through the gap in the fence.
