Mike comforting you

Whenever he sees you looking quite down, he knows you're not feeling your best, but he still wants to make sure, so he gently hugs you from behind, nuzzling your hair to see any signs of sadness in your scent. So you're sad? He silently peeks to your face, his blue eyes gleam in question. *Why are you sad?* His warm hands rub on your arms and his lips gently brush on your temple, leaving a kiss before he whispers in your ear that it makes his heart sink to see you like this. He asks you if you'd like to hear funny stories about him killing Titans and adventures he has had with his squad mates. He wraps a blanket around you both and holds you securely, cradling you and calmly narrating you his stories. You laugh to his funny shenanigans with Nanaba, Gelgar and even Hange and Levi, and he attacks you with kisses on your cheeks and neck, being happy that you cheered up.

You comforting him

You rarely find him crying, but the times he tears up for his fallen comrades are not that rare. There are days he's even gloomier about it than others. The threat of the Titans scars the Survey Corps every day that passes but he wants to fight and remain strong. And there are moments that he breaks, whenever he's in private. You check in his room through a crevice of the door, and you find his massive height curled up on the bed. He hugs his knees and silently weeps. He turns when he hears the door creaking. You excuse yourself as you enter. He doesn't say a word, he just keeps on looking in the void. You sit at the edge of the bed. If you try to say any words to console him, he won't say a thing, but he will definitely appreciate it. You look in his face, his eyelashes shine with tear droplets. His gaze is raised to you, eyes appearing larger than usually. He's glad you're there with him. Your hand wipes his tears and caresses his cheek. He holds your hand against his face. You feel his head resting on your leg. Your fingers run through his soft, golden locks. This relaxes him and actually puts him to sleep. He needs rest after a tough day, and he also needs you by his side.

fyi for those in Phoenix Arizona: stay away from Target because the Phoenix Police still won't arrest this dude despite it being illegal to declare intention of violence like this 🙃

This includes any ship. If you are a normal human being that doesn't harm anyone irl, plus respects others boundaries and doesn't mention triggering ships (or tropes) to the others if they are not fine with it, but likes to experiment with problematic themes in fiction, you are fuckin welcome here, feel free to be yourself. End of discussion.

If you think harrassing someone over a fictional ship is okay, get the fuck off my blog. I don’t want you.

That is capitalism for you smh....

The concepts of NSFW is being cleared of the Internet under the false pretense of children’s safety when it’s really about the people in power sanitising for advertisers and pushing evangelical narratives AND that not enough is done to keep legitimately harmful content off of spaces that minors have access to are ideas that can coexist

Not just your Valentine (Finral x gn!reader)

Just a cute little one shot for a valentine's event for our BC server event! It's PG and fluffy, so no warnings!

"Ah, so you're already here, uuuh... I hope you weren't waiting for me too much..." The brown haired young man scratched his head as he saw you sitting on that one lonely bench with the exceptional view of the forest and the mountains.

He awkwardly sat next to you and slid closer, looking down. "How, How are you doing in this special day?!..." He shyly said and looked around him, with an awkward smile.

"What are you hiding?" You curiously peeked behind his back, and he jerked to the side.

"N- nothing, special..." He revealed a pretty box of slightly expensive chocolate and a colourful bouquet of roses and wild flowers. "These are for you..."

You took the gifts with a big smile, smelled the flowers and thanked him with a tender embrace. He was shaking, as he wrapped his arms around you and nuzzled your neck.

"Thank you so much, Finral! You didn't have to!" You opened the chocolates and ate one.

You looked at his embarrassed smile becoming relieved. You raised an eyebrow at his behaviour, but continued the date as planned, looking at the sun shining through the mountains and listening to the wind inside the leaves. Your hand slowly reached his and brushed his fingers.

He winced to the touch and you noticed a blush forming on his face. You held his hand and leaned on his shoulder. "You... You could relax, you know..."

What do you mean, I'm fine..." He sweetly said and rolled his eyes.

"Well, I see it..." You squinted with a bit of irony.

"Ah, fine..." He casually sighed with a grin. "Sometimes I just... You know... I sss-" He clenched his fist tightly and bowed his head as he was struggling to mouth something. "I suck at romance!"

He let out a muffled sob. "B- but! You're important to me... I have tried to date so many people before, I have gone to various mixers, bars, flirted on the streets, but I never was successful at this! I never cared this much other than the fact that my self esteem felt crushed, but now... Now I can't risk it! I just want to earn your heart, you know!..."

"... And you have!"

"I know, I'm so incapable of- Wait, really?!"

"Yes! You really try so hard, and that's so sweet of you, but you already have earned my heart long ago! You're a very sweet and caring guy. I appreciate trying to earn me but it won't necessarily happen if you are perfect by the dating standards." You put a gentle hand on his back and brushed some hair strands away from his face to look at his moved expression. "Just be yourself, Finral!"

Your hand reached one of the chocolates and put it in his mouth. He accepted it, but stayed silent for couple of minutes. Your expression turned worried and you called his name with a frown.

But it turned out that he was just trying not to cry with his mouth full, but couldn't keep it together.

"Oh, what am I going to do with you..." He leaned into your embrace as you extended your hands towards him. He clung to you and wiped his eyes.

Two words escaped his lips. "Thank you."

"For what?"

"For being my Valentine..."

"Not just your Valentine, partner..."

Yes the antis and the elitists what a blend :)

Fandom ppl are annoying af when they can’t think critically or separate fiction from reality and when they derail serious conversations with blorbo from their shows bullshit. But equally annoying is this new trend of people on here who act they’re so above it all. Like I just saw a post on here that said good media should make you stare at a wall for two hours afterward not write coffee shop AUs or whatever, like okay buddy sorry you don’t consume anything that brings you joy. That mentality is equally as untenable as sinking your entire life into dumb fandom bullshit. You can absorb challenging media as well as watch a dumb show that’s just fun, it’s not a zero sum game.
