Jake Seresin Princess AU

Author's Note: Hello my little chili babies, I cranked this one out a while ago and I'm posting it right before going to a class, woohoo. It is the first thing I've written in this form, so don't be too mean please. I hope you like it!

Edit: I did not proof read this

Kisses,

Reckless

Warnings: It's pretty tame, AU, implied stuff? Let me know if I missed any please, love you

WC: 736 (super short)

Summary: You're a princess and Jake is your devoted Knight

Jake is your personal Knight

It is his job to protect you, to make sure you’re safe

And oh boy… did he love his job

Your curly hair bouncing off your shoulders as you frolic through the palace gardens. Running through rows of daisies and tulips, he can’t help but stare wondrously at your gorgeous smile. She looks so happy, he thinks, watching you.

As you continue to explore the grounds at your second home, only reserved for spring, your loyal knight will follow you everywhere. He is quite stoic, not talking much, but always observing. After all, it is his job to make sure you are safe; he certainly wouldn’t do it for any other reason. Not because he had fallen in love with you since he’d become your guard.

Your glowing personality drew him to you, and he had never been happier for a job placement in his life.

He had become an extremely respected and trusted knight after being a major lead in securing your countries victory in a war that seemed hopeless. He had been promoted to be the princess’ personal knight

Though he had never met you, he heard stories of your beauty. From the other knights that had protected the balls and parties your kingdom threw; he had been told all about the princess who glided effortlessly along the ballroom floor

How her hair fell loose on her shoulder

How she looked so natural and it was no wonder she was the kingdom’s pride and joy

After he had gotten called in by your father and appointed to be your knight, he could not wipe the smile off his face

And you…

Well, you were mighty suspicious of this new guard of yours

He is so pretty, too pretty… what brought a man like him into knighthood? Maybe he had an unstoppable dedication to protect his kingdom

As you get to know him, you learn to trust him more

You come to terms with the fact that he will be with you everywhere

You talk to him and joke with him, getting to know him more and more everyday

And he falls in love with you more and more every day

As you run through the fields of flowers, you dash towards your knight, grabbing his hand and dragging him along with you

He picks up his feet and follows along the pace you set, running behind you, desperate to keep up

He cannot lose you, but more than that, he does not want to be away from you, to lose the feeling of your touch

The cold gloves of his armor ward off the normal heat of the world, but your hand wrapped around his warms his soul

As you drag him through the grass and flowers, he recognizes just how far you are getting from the palace grounds

And as he opens his mouth to protest, you bring your lips to his unexpecting ones, still agape from the words stuck on his tongue, starting to process the new warm feeling you introduced

His princess was kissing him

He shouldn’t do this, this is inappropriate, this is wrong, he could be demoted, or hanged

But nothing he could do, no thought he could legitimately fathom, ever included him rejecting your kiss

It’s so warm, so inviting, so… everything he has thought of since he met you

He returns your kiss with little hesitation, so little so that you know he has never thought of truly rejecting you

After all, it is his job to listen to you and follow your orders, whether spoken or not

As you pull away, he can’t help but reach for more, a gesture that only gets met with soft giggles

Your foreheads rest against each other’s as he catches his breath from the intense grasp you held him in

“Sir Seresin, I desperately need your help with a problem I have been facing” you whisper into his ears, leaving him with goosebumps

As you bring yourself to lay in the thick grass covering the plains near your palace, you grab Jake’s hand, guiding his form on top of yours

He lets you bring him to the ground, gently pressing his weight on top of yours

Beautiful green eyes peering into your own, you bring your hand to his hair, nails scraping along his scalp, giving him goosebumps

“What can I do for you, Princess?”

"tiktok has massive problems that even if you don't agree with a complete ban have to be addressed for all social media platforms" and "the Chinese government is doing pretty awful things" and "there is a lot of sinophobic fearmongering and double standards in the conversation about tiktok" and "people should exercise basic caution signing up to foreign or domestic social media" and "most Chinese citizens like US citizens are just people living their life and cultural exchange between them can be beneficial for both sides" and "some people being on the same social media site isn't going to solve everything " and "I want to study the linguistics happening there under a microscope" are opinions that can coexist

I have come up with a better metaphor than “you can’t pour from an empty cup” for burnout. You can’t boil an empty kettle. Pouring from an empty cup just gets you nowhere. Trying to boil an empty kettle can ruin the kettle, the stove, and burn down your house if you keep trying it.

In the wake of the Neil Gaiman Vulture article, we need to be talking SO much more about Gaiman's son. A young boy whose formative years have been steeped in sexual violence, who has witnessed enough to quote his father's vile predilections without understanding their meaning. Whose mother's deplorable complacency will not shield him from any future harm. Because exposing a child to sexual acts is a form of child sexual abuse. Neil Gaiman is a rapist and a child abuser, and Amanda Palmer has been knowingly complicit in that abuse.

[love-affair-with-fandoms]

Fuck you, Neil Gaiman.

J. R. R. Tolkien: no, my books aren't about the war I experienced. It's just a story

J. R. R. Tolkien's works: you cannot go home, war ends entire bloodlines, you are mourning the death of your brother alone, you dug into the earth and permanently scored the land, you cannot explain what you have been through, you cannot go home, "that wound will never fully heal. He will carry it the rest of his life", leaving the women behind does not save them, the young die first, you cannot go home, the parent will bury their child, you have lost the wives and you will never connect with them again, "how shall any tower withstand such numbers and such reckless hate?", you are not the same, you cannot go home, you can never go home, your father will only side with those he sees as worthy bloodlines and you cannot change his mind, it is more meaningful Not to kill, sometimes your sacrifice accomplishes nothing, you cannot go home
