dumb pillow

— fluffy headcanones

pairing - newjeans members x female reader

genre - fluff

synopsis - their reaction when they find you sleeping while hugging a pillow instead of them at night.

warning - nothing, nothing yea

a/n - crying bcuz i accidentally posted a draft earlier since im sleepy as hell and that draft was like 1 month old :|

— requested!

kim minji

minji’s a total sucker for cuddles, and when she sees you wrapped around a pillow instead of her?

it’s like her world collapses in slow motion. she blinks a few times, hoping it's a mistake, then she gives this cute little pout.

“y/n-ah, really? a pillow?” she mumbles, her voice all soft and sleepy.

she’s the type who tries to subtly nudge the pillow away, scooting closer to take its place without waking you up.

when that doesn’t work, she just gives up on being subtle.

minji will start hugging you from behind, wrapping her arms around your waist and pulling you close. “i’m way comfier, you know,” she whispers.

and when you unconsciously snuggle back into her? oh, you can feel her little grin against your shoulder.

“that’s better.” she’s so satisfied and snuggly, squeezing you tighter.

you’re not getting rid of her now, clingy bear mode activated.

pham hanni

hanni’s jaw literally drops when she wakes up and sees you all curled up with a pillow.

she’s in full-on shock.

“babe, seriously?! a pillow? i’m right here!”

she flops back onto the bed with the biggest sigh, throwing her arm over her eyes like she’s in the middle of a drama scene.

after about five seconds, she’s poking you awake. “yah, did you forget i’m the best cuddler in the whole world? why are you betraying me like this?”

you’re half-asleep, so she grabs your arm and pulls you over to her side.

she’ll probably spend the next five minutes fake whining until you bury your face in her neck.

“there you go, much better,” she mutters, stroking your hair like she wasn’t just acting like a whole dramatic loser seconds ago.

deep down, she’s just happy to have you close again, and she’ll totally tell the other about how she won the cuddle war later.

danielle marsh

danielle would honestly find it so cute at first.

she’d watch you snuggling the pillow with this big, soft smile on her face, thinking about how adorable you look.

but after a few minutes, she gets a little jealous of the pillow, wanting to be the one in your arms.

“Y/n, babe…” she whispers in the softest voice, tapping you gently on the shoulder.

when you don’t respond, she just slides the pillow out of your grasp so smoothly and replaces it with herself.

she’d giggle softly as you unconsciously wrap your arms around her. “much better, right?”

she’s so warm and happy now, snuggling closer to you and wrapping her arms around your waist.

if you wake up, you’d probably see her grinning like she just won the best prize ever.

kang haerin

haerin?

she won’t say a word, but oh girl, she’s watching.

she wakes up, sees you clinging to that dumb pillow, and her eyes narrow slightly.

she’s jealous.

without making a sound, she’ll just gently remove the pillow from your grasp and sneakily replace it with herself.

she won’t say anything, but she’ll bury her face in your shoulder, her arm slipping around your waist to pull you closer.

you probably wouldn’t even notice the change until you feel her breath against your neck, her soft hair brushing your cheek.

if you happen to wake up and catch her, she’ll just stare at you, expression blank but her cheeks slightly pink.

“what?” she’ll mumble, acting like she didn’t just steal the spot from the pillow.

she won’t let you go though.

you’re hers now, and she’ll hold you tighter, resting her head on your chest like a silent little cat.

lee hyein

hyein is not gonna let this one go.

she’ll wake up, spot the betrayal, and immediately pout.

“y/n-ah! you’re seriously choosing a pillow over me?”

she’s not having it.

she’ll sit up and start poking your arm, glaring at the pillow like it personally offended her.

“am I not comfy enough for you?!” she complains, her voice soft but so whiny.

when you don’t respond, she’ll huff and shove the pillow aside, sliding into your arms in its place.

“i’m better than that dumb pillow,” she’ll mumble under her breath, wrapping your arms around her like a little kid who finally got their way.

she’ll cling to you for the rest of the night, every now and then whispering, “see? i’m the best.”

hyein’s a bit of a baby when it comes to attention, so she’ll keep glancing up to make sure you’re still holding her.

no pillows allowed anymore.

a/n - no double update cuz im sleepy:((((((((

[txttletale]

hey not trying to be a shithead but genuinely curious; and not saying it isnt, but what makes honest hearts like super racist? because, okay its been a while but i dont remember it being *that* bad?

am i missing something? (probably)

well, essentially, the whole dlc hinges its plot on its idea of 'tribal' society vs. 'civilized' society. this is like... a distinction with origins in 19th century scientific racism used to argue that indigenous peoples were 'primitive' and 'backwards', a lesser form of life compared to the more developed 'civilized' people. and this is a distinction that is everywhere in all the fallout games, including new vegas (i think it's super fucking racist that the white gloves practice of cannibalism is constantly narratively linked to their 'tribal origins' and described in the terms of a regression or degeneration)--but honest hearts is about it and so it's really inescapable.

joshua sawyer can say whatever he likes about multi-ethnic diverse groups or whatever but the tribes in honest hearts are very clearly inspired by racist stereotypes about native americans--they are naive, gullible morons (follows-chalk can't understand the concept of a casino) at worst and noble savages with (textually) biblical innocence at best. their names, their art, their societies--all just a white guy's idea of "vaguely native american" without any research or care.

and imo worst of all (and this is something im aware the devs have properly acknowledged) they have absolutely no agency--your role in the dlc is to be a "civilized" outsider who tells them which of two white "civilized" mormons to listen to. none of the 'tribals' are able to make their own decisions or lead themselves--they need a mormon missionary to tell them what to do! there is no way to resolve the dlc without picking which white mormon missionary they should listen to other than just murdering everyone indiscriminately.

and, like--i am aware that honest hearts thinks it is gesturing towards a critique of these ideas. you can criticize the paternalism daniel shows towards the sorrows, and the dlc clearly intended it to be criticized--but that criticism is weak and hollow when the only way to follow up on it is to put a different white mormon in charge. it is the most archetypal white saviour narrative possible--and yes, i also know daniel was 'supposed to be asian', but that doesn't change anything because he is in fact, as the "civilized" missionary preaching paternalistically to the "primitive tribals", fundamentally white-coded

so i mean yea it's racist because it relies on racist stereotypes about native americans, mandates that a white person come and take charge of these poor stupid 'tribes'--but even if you changed all that, it's fundamentally about an idea of 'civilization vs. tribal society' that it accepts as a true and meaningful distinction as its core premise, and that is just a straight up racist premise.

(and the reason i keep bringing up that both daniel and josh are mormons is that mormons have a long and storied history of brutal violence and colonialism against indigenous peoples, from their original violent settlement of utah to their 'indian placement program' to their deeply racist scripture, which makes their portrayal as benevolent white saviours particularly galling and repulsive)

[meh-kris]

Nobody has been waiting for it but who tf cares??!! Anyways let's give it up for MY campcamp ship ratings !!! (And no im not adding the campers x counselors ships like maxvid bcuz istg if I hear it one more time I will fucking throw a truck at you) so yea let's go first with the adults

[boowhumps]

hi who's your favorite oc and why?

Woah random ask suddenly but I'll answer it regardless.

As for my favorite OC, it depends on a multitude of things. I have at best 100+ OC's, counting all my storylines. And I really can't pick, so I'll do most of my top favorites from my main storyline + why I like them

__

Calamitous AU:

C!Karyme - She's the MC, She's a projection of many of my shitty qualities, and she's existed in my head for like almost 4 years now.

C!Sam - Kinda the comedy relief in a way, based off of my bestie, I hit him with a car so that automatically makes me like him more.

C!Destiny - Not one I talk about often, but she's so fucking funny despite being a antagonist. Also, her death is funny soooo.

C!Elliot - He's gay, had blue-green hair, and takes no ones shit, automatic favorite.

C!Violet - Also based off a bestie, and is realistically a shitty person but it's funny to me sooo.

C!Silas - Smash. Funny. Also his FWB relationship with C!Amne makes me giggle.

C!Lua - Genderfluid dead bitch who has anger issues and should be muzzled, what's not to love.

C!Daniele - Lunean (Equivalent of Mexican) girly whos also the equivalent of gossip girl.

C!Zaaron - Brunette Rapunzel + girl dad + lowkey a smash.

C!Freyja - Ghost girl with all the issues yet still a icon.

C![CENSORED] - No canonical name, looks like he crawled out of hell (basically did), and a psycho.

C!Kairo - Basically my daughter, and also did I mention she's basically my daughter-

C!Kaiden - Love interest who always suffers because it's funny, also based on my bf so yeah he kinda has to be here..

C!Leony - Half her traumas are because of the MC, also suffer a lot, and her design is so PRETTY-

C!Carlos - Brotherly figure to the MC, also suffers, sees ghosts which means he see the MC multiple times and is slowly going crazy.

C!Amelia - Also my daughter, and I love her design.

C!Zak - Also gay, with C!Elliot, had so much internalized homophobia that its hilarious to me.

C!Tyra - The only OC who's name was not picked by me, pretty design, and she's a little witchy girly.

C!Amne - Technically the same person as the MC, but also technically not. The funniest antagonist I have. A psycho, masochist, and a whore. What's not to love about that?

C!Selyna - Literally god in my story. Not the best person, but hey, she tries.

C!️N̴̟̬̠̣͍̹̜̠̘̮͎̥̜̳̖̋͋͛̆́̂̀̅̓̕ͅͅO̸̙͙̺̰͚͎̙͔̦͇͗̒̋͛̄͐̓̽̄͛́͂̀̑̕ͅͅͅB̴̢̠̋̊͑̈̾̑̊͒͗̽O̸̙͙̺̰͚͎̙͔̦͇͗̒̋͛̄͐̓̽̄͛́͂̀̑̕ͅͅͅD̸̢̮̫̰̥̗̘̱͉͙͙̺̫̏͒̅̌Ỵ̷̡̛̟̱̑̍̀̉̿̿̉ - A literal parasite, but also really funny (even though it causes all the problems in S4)

__

yeah I think that's all.

Unless I forgot some OC.

But that's all I can think of rn.

ANYWAYS yea there's ur answer.

- B.W

[moopadoop]

How did you actually start making these models or how do you basically have the motivation to do so, i really wanna try modeling like yours but im so confused on where to start😵‍💫

My motivation originally came from wanting to animate, but to animate in 3d you also have to know how to model, texture, and shade... As of some resources to start, I've included what helped me the most under the cut!

Getting Started:

Im sure anybody new to learning blender has probably heard of blender guru, if not, ill be happy to introduce him!

He's honestly what helped me the most with getting familiar with all the in's and out's of creating a good render, as well as figuring out how to go about approaching certain things. He also has a few older videos (blender 2.79 my beloved and behated....) that walks you through the process of creating different renders. My only problem with them is that they're a bit long...

ok hear me out, this actually really helped me with learning how to model in general. This tutorial may be old but it honestly taught me things like using the mirror modifier (an actual lifesaver), and how to approach modeling more complex shapes. Yea i get that the entire tutorial is kinda hyper specific but sometimes you just gotta roll up your sleeves and say "today im going to learn how to model a lowpoly elephant"

Intermediate:

have you gotten bored of making lowpoly elephants? Time to expand onto more advanced things, like people! One of the absolute best tutorial makers i've ever seen with my own two peepers is daniel krueter

Again, a bit of an old tutorial, its what opened the door to creating characters for me. He expands upon more complex box modeling, as well as introduces you to edge modeling for more specific shapes like the face. I'm pretty sure he also goes a lil bit into topology, and edge flow, but in case he doesn't the general idea is: quads are amazing and beautiful, tris can stay but are on thin ice, and n-gons are the devils spawn. (you know its true because it rhymes)

Two other tutorials from him that utilize 2.8+ and a lil bit of sculpting/retopologizing. To be honest I haven't really gotten around to watching these, but I would recommend the second one if you want a more in-depth look on how he did certain things, whereas if you want a general view of his process you should take a look at the first one.

If you're looking for some ✨quick tips✨ a few recommendations I have are Gleb Alexandrov, Cgmatter/Default Cube, and Ian Hubert.

Gleb Alexandrov has a lot of tips on just how to make things look a lil bit better, rendering/material-wise

Cgmatter/Default Cube do more technical tutorials, like how you would go about making certain things, abstract or otherwise

Ian Hubert is kinda like Cgmatter but they do more tutorials on things you would find out in the wild such as buildings, fish, posters, and scary nightmare men! (They also do a lot of vfx/hard surface stuff which i think is super cool)

And finally, leaning on the more advanced side is Dikko

he does quite a few tutorial videos for things like Adobe Illustrator/Maya both of which i don't have because im broke but i mainly really like their rigging/hand modeling tutorials. I'm pretty sure he introduces drivers for the different controllers of rigs and ik constraints, but im not sure because i haven't really gotten around to watching the whole thing.

Advanced; Learning to Stylize:

From here it gets a lil bit more abstract because theres no "right" way to stylize, whereas with photorealistic rendering most of the time there is a very clear line between real-lookin and not real-lookin. A lot of it is just kinda what looks good.

My go-to person for stylized environments is Kristof Dedene, he makes some of the prettiest shaders ive ever seen. (im a huge fan of his water shader)

he has tutorials for clouds, waterfalls, buildings, rocks, and grass which all look so good i could cry

My absolute beloved, my blorbo, my favorite activity. Sam Bowman is like the godfather of all things procedural, words cannot describe how much this man has helped me make funny lil designs for my funny lil projects. Everyone should watch his videos (and subscribe while youre at it, my boy is criminally underrated)

A geometry nodes connoisseur (if theyre doing geo nodes you know they got the class that wont quit). Their renders are really cool to look at, but geo nodes scare me so i haven't really gotten around to doing their tutorials yet, still would definitely recommend them if youre interested!

ok so if im being completely honest i don't know what hes doing, but in my defense i don't think anyone else does either. His newest normal editing series is witchcraft to me but i think its funny how he casually dabbles in the dark arts so im including him in here. He's covered a lot from uvs, to masks, to drivers, to shaders, but again they are all kinda advanced so proceed with caution.

And because this post wasn't long enough heres some extra people to check out who do kinda tutorial stuff (but mostly i just like looking at their work)

Bobacupcakes - Who i reference the most whenever i wanna make something sparmkly (i know the link leads to twitter but theyre also on tumblr)

Rukikuri - prebbty models!! (some normal editing too!)

Niall Stenson - kinda a grab bag of stuff (i just think theyre neat)

Late as Usual - another wild geo node wizard!

Dillon Goo - suuuuper cool animator (i like their fight scenes)

Rui - neato burrito 3d character creator (their textures are godly)

Dyzi&liz - im pretty sure theyre actually making an entire show in blender and i am both scared and amazed

Yoolie - another 3d character creator <3

高部 - テクスチャが大好き～～～ ;0; いちばんすきなテクスチャアーティスト！！

Nugget - Yet another wizard that dabbles in the darkest of arts (im pretty sure ive mentioned them before but in case i haven't theyre the person who's node setup ive been using for raymarching textures)

かめ山 - モデルはとてもかわいい～～

Im sorry that most of these people are from the bird app, but trust me they are definitely worth checking out

[wayward-cryptarch]

He’s beautiful, with his dimples showing as he smiles down at the baby Eliksni he’s cradling in his arms. The winter air has turned his pale blue skin a gentle tinge of lavender about his nose, cheeks, and ears. It’s the human in him, O’Neill thinks, that lets him flush so perfectly.

He wonders if Daniel had been in the Eliksni shantytown all day. That he doesn’t have his own band of swaddled babies wrapped around him is a bit of a surprise to O’Neill. The House of Light seems to adore the Cryptarch just as much as Daniel does them. O’Neill would be a bit jealous, having to drag his wayward lover home nearly every day, if he didn’t know he still had a part of Daniel’s heart.

“Special delivery!” O’Neill calls out, and he instantly sees all the signs that Daniel is all his.

The way his head comes up, the look of delight already on his face, his eyebrows practically bouncing over his glasses. His whole body turns to O’Neill and mouths the Hunter’s name, forgetting for just a moment what he’s doing, and then he double takes to the Eliksni beside him before gently handling the swaddled babe into carrying band with its siblings. He keeps glancing to O’Neill in the process, as if to make sure the Hunter is still coming his way.

When O’Neill finally steps just within Daniel’s personal space, he practically feel the Cryptarch vibrating with happiness. The quiet “Hey!” he greets with is more breath than sound in his excitement.

“Hey,” O’Neill smiles indulgently, taking in Daniel up close, eyeing how his deliciously full bottom lip is slightly chapped. Probably from all the unconscious little licks his gives it all day, even in the cold. O’Neill will have to be tender with it tonight.

Daniel is looking him over just as studiously as he does with engrams, checking him over for injuries or damage. The Cryptarch knows Marge will take care of him, but he likes to know himself that O’Neill is hale and whole after a mission without him. O’Neill is much the same with him after returning from missions, but Daniel doesn’t have a Ghost to resurrect and repair him, leaving the Hunter to try nursing his wounds a best as possible.

“Oh, uh, are those Saint’s treats already? I could’ve helped!” Daniel insists when he notices the two baskets O’Neill is carrying.

The Hunter cringes. “Yea-aah, but Saint’s enthusiasm was more than enough help. Marge will be digging dough out of my armor for the foreseeable future.”

“Thank for your efforts, then, Hunter,” Daniel said sweetly, licking that perfect bottom lip before glancing down to accept one of the baskets.

“Of course, Cryptarch,” O’Neill replies, brushing fingers in the exchange.

They spend the next half hour passing out Saint’s Swaddled Etherdips to the Eliksni. The children happily chatter and click at Daniel, who chatters and clicks back at them fluently. Their innocence makes O’Neill’s heart ache; his own boy Charlie was once as playful and eager as these scamps. He never thought he could forgive the Fallen for taking his son, but Daniel. Daniel taught him so much about ‘meaning of life things’, things that the Traveler and it’s Ghosts never seemed to explain to him. Just as he found that there were some Guardians that turned to Darkness and became enemies, O’Neill was also learning that those who were once his enemies turned to the Light and become allies.

And Daniel, he’s in his element here, with the House of Light, immersed in their language and culture. As in his element as he is on missions, uncovering Golden Age history or unlocking the puzzle of engrams. There’s so much life in him, he’s glowing from more than just the ribbons of light dancing under his pale blue Awoken skin.

O’Neill can’t wait to take him home and unwrap him as his personal Dawning present, loving every bit of him.

“Thank you for helping, Jack,” Daniel says solemnly, standing next to O’Neill as they watched the Eliksni children playing and enjoying their cookies. “I know how hard this must be for you.”

“I have you with me,” O’Neill says as he takes Daniel’s hand and watches the wistful, earnest, and deeply fond expression break like dawn over his face. “As long as I have you, it’s not that bad.”

He turns to Daniel and gently takes his chilled face into his hands. O’Neill captures that sweet bottom lip in the kiss he’s been craving since he first spotted his Cryptarch this evening. It’s just as chapped as he thought it would be, and takes care not to make it any more sore than it already is. For now.

“Happy Dawning, Danny,” he whispers against that precious mouth.

He feels the sweet smile against his own lips as Daniel echos back, “Happy Dawning, Jack.”

Now, O’Neill just has to convince his Cryptarch to come in from the cold night air. He gives him another kiss, with the sultry promise of body heat, to tempt him home.

Okay, Moon anon was able to contact me and I'm gonna post their chapters 3-6 here.

Daniel and YN 3 🌗🌗

Rainy days are crazy. Some of YN’s best and worst memories were on a rainy day. It was a rainy day when Daniel was born. His parents overjoyed when he decided to join the world early. The Sunny morning turned rainy when they saw something was wrong. The sky was so dark when the doctored explained that their baby didn’t get enough oxygen in the womb or when he came out. That his brain was impacted by the trauma. It took four years for Daniel’s mother to stop blaming herself, four years for her to understand that she couldn’t have known that something was wrong in her womb. Four years when they had their second child. It was a rainy day when YN and Daniel got lost. Holding each other’s hand, tightly they wandered the Kamino Ward. Hoping that their parents would be right down an alley or around the corner. That was a terrible 6th birthday for YN. The steps Daniel left in the dirt started to get deeper and more burnt. The boy slightly started to tremble. “Daniel.. it’s gonna be ok. Momma and Pop are going to find us we just have to-“ “Are you two lost?” A very tall man in a black suit asked. YN couldn’t remember his face, but his voice was eerily calm and smoothe. His head had snow white hair on it. A look at him would’ve left even the hero All Might scared. “ye…Yes. My brother and I can’t find our parents..” “Oh dear. Well I can help you. They couldn’t have gotten far.” He held his hand to Daniel. And he almost took it had YN not stepped in. “We’re not supposed to touch strangers.” “Oh yes, that’s a very good rule. Well my name is.. Shigaraki. Now what are yours?” “…yn.. and daniel..” “Now we aren’t strangers. Let’s get you two somewhere safe. Your brother’s quirk might level the neighborho-“ “YN! DANIEL!” The relieved voice of their father shouted out. And the two quickly turned away, toward his calls and open arms. Tears running down their faces, swearing to never wander off again. The day was saved. When YN went to turn to Mr Shigaraki to tell him it was fine, he had disappeared into the crowd. But one question lingered in her head. How did he know Daniel’s quirk could be dangerous? It was a sunny day at first when YN and Daniel went out to the park for their Day out. YN had already planned to tell her parents that she wanted to come back here for her 12th birthday in a few months. Daniel kept over-stimulating himself with every single thing that caught his eyes. The anthill, the trees, the way the wind carried the leaves, when he and YN jumped around over the hopscotch drawings. When the rain came down they didn’t want to leave. They wanted to splash in the wetness like a couple of ducks. But Momma was insistent it was time to go back to the apartment. Inside the car YN immediately put on her headphones to listen to nightcore covers of popular songs. It wasn’t until she noticed her mom’s terrified expression and felt her dad’s fear did she take them off. “-I DONT KNOW ITS NOT BREAKING!” “WE’RE GOING RIGHT INTO TRAFFIC! DO SOMETHING!” “..momma?..” “DANIEL! YN GET DOWN!” That was the last thing her mother said to her. The rain hit the car harder. Daniel was quick to cover his little sister as the car swerved towards a large truck. YN felt her brother shield over their bodies. The last thing she heard from her father was a yell. Before they crashed into the truck. Before YN and Daniel were flung out into the side of the road. Scratches beginning to litter their arms and cheeks. YN felt the rain on her face as she tried looking up. Tried finding her parents. It was a rainy day when the last image of her parents was the crushed front end of the car. 🌗🌗

Daniel and YN 4 🌗🌗

The incident at the cafe left a bigger mess then was intended. Of course the waitress didn’t say a word about who caused the mess, still terrified of the threat, but the manager still called the police. At the moment it was being investigated as a break in. It wasn’t until they started to bag the broken vases as evidence did they think to call a hero as they believed this was a terrorist villain trying to strike more fear. When the first cop touch the broken vases he immediately fell over and started seizing. Like someone had sent hundreds of volts up through his gloved fingers and into his blood stream. The second cop tried picking up the glass with prongs so that she wouldn’t get the same effect. But she still felt some pain and volts. Even the glass windows were giving off static. When they were examined no one could find a point of impact. It was almost like they spontaneously exploded. Worse and more confusing yet was the fact that the material seemed to give off radiation spikes. From a computer screen image, it was like a red glow was emanated from the glass. When the police tried to check the cameras, all the footage was either ruined, too melted to gather anything. It left them in a stump. So they had to make a plea to the hero society to get fresh eyes and help on the case. Not expecting any big response. Some heroes wanted to solve the mystery because it stumped them as well. This quirk residue was something unseen before. Calls and emails were left. All saying they would look into it. And it seemed like this would just be a mysterious case left forgotten. That is until the All Might showed up in the station one morning. Along with his protege Deku. They said they wanted to solve the case because if this person left such a dangerous residue after using their quirk, then they were a danger to themselves and others. No on saw the real intentions in their eyes. When they asked about the only other patron in the cafe the police said that they tried tracking them down, but they were gone into the wind. The only other patron at the cafe made their way into a compound. Holding treats meant for a little girl. But first he had to make a stop at his boss’s office. “Hey.. Kai. You won’t believe what Just saw.” Meanwhile in the station two separate rats made calls to two separate people. “Put me through to Shigaraki…. Hello. I have something interesting to tell you. Something that might please you and your Sensei.” “Oh hey there Aizawa. Detective Tsukauchi here. Look I you know about that cafe destruction a week ago? Yea well I think you outta here about this.” Indeed the cafe incident left a bigger mess than intended. 🌗🌗

Daniel and YN part 5 🌗🌗

They’d been gone for at least two months. YN’s feet hurt and Daniel missed his own bed. But they had to keep going, with no intended final destination but a goal to keep away from the previous home they ran from. After the morning at the cafe, YN and Daniel had kept to the shadows for the rest of the day. But they couldn’t keep going like this. They needed to eat today but not at a restaurant. There was only one dreaded… dreaded option. The grocery store. So after they checked in at the latest motel with kitchens in the rooms, the siblings ventured off to the store.YN couldn’t leave Daniel alone yet. He’d panic and probably have a fit. The store was minimally packed. Since it was still early in the day it seemed like they would zip in and out with relative ease. After grabbing the bare essentials, and what she could pack in a backpack without much drag, it was time to go to the candy aisle. It was a long journey thus far, a journey deserving of some sour candies. But of course there had to be another person there. Invading space and looking right at her favorites. She wanted to just grab and go. But her hand and the stranger's hand touched as they reached for the same one. “Sorry. I should’ve watched where I was going heh..” The tall redhead said. A small blush on his face as he rubbed the back of his neck. “It’s fine. Lemme just grab and go here.” She looked back for Daniel, luckily he was close by staring at the varieties of pocky they had. Turning back she noticed his uniform. UA, that might prove to be a complication. But YN was desperate for some kind words and a brief moment to talk to someone her own age. “So you go to UA? Are you a general student or a hero course student?” “Oh hero course definitely! I even have my hero name chosen!” “Wow that’s great. I hope in a few years I get to be saved by…?” “Red Riot!” “Like Crimson Riot?” “Exactly! I really admire him and I hope I live up to his-“ “OI SH**TY HAIR! WE’RE GONNA BE LATE! GRAB YOUR CRAP AND LET’S GO!” A blonde kid shouted down the aisle, also wearing a UA outfit. YN couldn’t place why but she felt like she’d known him before. That volume felt very familiar, but it startled her brother who jumped in fear causing the pocky he saw to fall off the shelving. Time to go now. “I should go anyway. It was nice meeting you.” “Wait, we could walk you and your brother to your school if you guys want?” “We have to go.” The blonde got closer and she could tell something was perpetually up his ass. “Bye.” “Wait! My name’s Eijiro Kirishima. What’s yours?” “YN. Just YN. That’s my brother Daniel.” And before he or his companion could ask anything else the two siblings fast walked toward the checkout and were out the door before they got another chance to talk to them. “YN… huh she was pretty cool right bakubro!” “What ever. Let’s get going before we show up after Deku.” But that name was familiar to him. The girl had long since faded from his mind, but how could anyone forget the day when a quirkless kid tried bashing your head into the dirt. He planned on apologizing the next day for his comments but she was gone. Gone and almost forgotten. It could be possible that this was just someone who shared the same name. But maybe.. possibly.. the universe was giving him the chance to apologize. “YN.” 🌗🌗

Daniel and YN part 6 🌗🌗

YN never really liked her neighbors. She never outright loathed them, but she was uncomfortable with how Inko kept trying to be her mother, and how Izuku had this strange obsessive stare when he looked at her. As long as they stayed in their apartment and never bothered them it would all be fine. But their parents couldn’t watch them all the time. So on days when momma and pop went out Miss Midoryia would graciously watch them. YN never liked pity. So when Miss Midoryia tried to pity and feel sorry about YN’s quirkless status, that just made her dig her heels in longer. She didn’t need people to fuss over her like she was a glass doll. At least with Izuku she could’ve had a companion. She did try to get along with him. But he was so weird. Just because they both were quirkless didn’t mean they’d would be close. “So why are you homeschooled?” “I get into fights.” “Why?” “Because people are mean and they think they’ll have no consequences to their words. I proved them wrong.” “Were they mean because you’re quirkless or because Daniel is… different?” Now obviously he didn’t mean any harm by that. But an emotional 10 year old girl is not someone to mess with. So with a sharp glare to his face the conversation quickly died. In the dining room, Daniel would usually be coloring. Or playing with his legos. Something to stim and distract his mind. Sometimes he’d just pull out a old painting his dad got him, and he’d spend hours looking at the strokes and would mentally add a new feature. Twirling the hair on his head whilst sucking/biting his thumb. “Daniel? Would you like some water?” “No miss. I want momma.” “I know sweetie but she won’t be gone forever. And you call me Inko” Though she’d prefer him to call her something more affectionate. Throughout the night Inko kept trying to mother them. She hovered over YN’s neck and tried petting her head which resulted in a swipe from the little girl. By the time YN’s parents got back, she was relieved and spent the rest of the night complaining to her mom about how she didn’t want to go over to the neighbors anymore and how she felt uncomfortable. Across the hall the two greenettes were enamored with the two kids. Inko adored how sweet Daniel was, how shy he looked to her. Izuku was star struck at this girl without a quirk who was so quick to fight against the norms put in place by a society against them. They'd soon make it a habit to try to talk to the family in the hall, or bump into them on the street. One day, after the family had been gone for a couple weeks, they saw the two with several police officers and a social worker packing away all their belongings. It didn’t take a genius to figure out that something terrible had happened. When Inko offered to watch them, the social worker confirmed the worst and took the children away. Three weeks later, as her son was at school Inko kept trying to find the legal way for her to gain custody of the kids when her door was knocked. Her husband, AFO, on the other side. She tried telling him to go away. Tried saying that he had no part in Izuku’s life anymore. But he had a bigger role than known. “How can you be so cruel my love? Especially now that I’ve opened the door for you to gain what you want?” “What do you mean?” “I’ll help you gain custody of the two children you are craving. I happen to have a fascination with them as well.” “I can’t ever guarantee that we’ll be a whole family ever again.” “Of course not. I wouldn’t expect you to. But let’s try something for now.” So Inko made a deal with the devil, to gain two angels. 🌗🌗

Now that AFO is in the story, I'm like so excited! Great work, Moon anon!

[borom1r]

Lawrence & Eric asks!! (btw, ty for sending me an ask too + I hope I can answer it soon,, energy low) but um!! honestly I cannot get enough of Eric/Lawrence interactions tbh, so like. what qas the first time one of them did smth for the other & they realized "oh, this is love"? bc I think you've talked abt it w other polycule members but I don't know if u have for these two. if you have tho: what are Lawrence & Eric's favourote things 2 do w Daniel & Diana? (alt. cld be like... th first time Eric infodumps 2 Adam <3) apologies if these have all been answered b4 also + I hope you feel better soon,,

bksdh thank u dude;; idk if ive answered these b4 but honestly m always happy 2 talk abt stuff multiple times hehe

+ ooohh umm i think. i did talk abt this b4 but i think for Eric it's definitely the time where like. hes talking to Lawrence abt his game and aaaaaaaall of the guilt that comes with it especially since. bc he failed he wasn't able to be there for Daniel through his recovery. and Lawrence hearing at and just shutting that line of thought down with: "If I had been in your position, I would have done exactly the same thing. I would've torn that monster apart if I thought it could save Diana." and just the weight of hearing calm, dignified Lawrence admit he would've attacked John, that he would've turned to violence and Eric isn't a monster for wanting to protect his child. bc Lawrence would've done the same. i think thats when it hits for Eric that like. yea, he loves this man.

as for Lawrence's side of things.. mm....

i dont think its anything rlly big as much as it's... one time, after an exhausting day, Eric surprises Lawrence w/ a mug of tea exactly how he likes it n just sits with him, and i think that quiet comfort n familiarity of "this person knows me well enough to know just what makes me feel better when im wiped out" where Lawrence is like. This Is Love. I Love Him. its not very grand or whatever but its also not smthn Lawrence really had before. <3

also as for their favorite things to do w/ Daniel n Diana! bsfkhskj really the answer is "whatever Daniel and Diana" want bc lets be. real those two have their dads wrapped around their little fingers. thankfully Daniel is a gr8 influence for Diana so they really don't get into trouble ever, and he's outgrown the puppy dog eyes phase. but DIANA? oh you can be sure if she ever turns on the puppy dog eyes its. Extremely hard for either Eric or Lawrence to say no lmao. for a serious answer i think the best time was at a mall along the lines of the Mall of America (for those who've never been/don't have anything similar nearby, it's a HUGE mall featuring tons of shops, restaurants, a surprisingly large indoor theme park including carnival-style games, an arcade, and a rope course; an aquarium, a mirror maze, mini golf, and a movie theater). they make a day of it and though they have to go slow (it's exhausting for all of them tbqh), they have a ton of fun.

Daniel's favorite was the aquarium (he was the only one who wanted to pet the stingrays in the touch pools lol), Lawrence smokes everyone at mini golf, Eric almost gets a concussion in the mirror maze. Eric + Daniel compete on the Ghost Blasters ride while Lawrence lets Diana go in the bouncy house (they rode most of the other rides together! Diana + Daniel sat on the very front of the log ride together), and Daniel gives Diana all their arcade tickets so she can get a stuffed animal (even though she already got like. 3 from actual stores bfshjkfbh). they get lunch at the rainforest cafe (Diana's choice!) n close out the day with a movie. they are all WIPED THE FUCK OUT by the time they get home but it was 100% worth it

+ OOFHSJD first time Eric infodumps to Adam!! i think we've both touched on it but i rlly do think the first thing he hyperfixates on is. rats + rodent care. (on somewhat of a sidenote i think he gets rlly into building toys for his rats. like mazes n shit! its all very impressive. William sews him rat hammocks and he just. ooofhsjdfk!!!!)

i think it's actually The Day they're going to get rats, like they've got the cage set up n all the supplies finally and Adam's coming with to the pet shop to pick out some rats and Eric is just! going off abt all the facts he's learned from reading care guides and doing research. n Adam's just smilin a little and listening while Eric goes off! n he's not gonna be like "omg yr infodumping!!" bc pointing it out is the Best way to get Eric to shut down but he is like. so happy tht Eric feels comfortable enough w/ Adam + passionate enough to infodump!! its a big deal when obvs its smthn Eric's been struggling with

Favorite parts of Private Journal

Its my tumblr blog so here’s the parts of my own fic that actually made me lose my shit.

-  DF: I can’t live like this; I’m just going to spend the rest of my miserable half life on this floor.

-  Healing - Can take some hits and recover faster than a normal person. I hit Danny with a lawn chair a few times and he seemed alright after a minute.

-  Stupid Veggie Girl (11:47 pm): You’re seriously going to use your first name for your secret identity?

- Advantages: Danny’s power, Fenton technology (affectionate), the best superhero back-up team ever, most everyone ignores us.

Disadvantages: Danny has no idea how to use his powers, Fenton technology (derogatory), we’re 14 and have no fighting experience, pretty much no support from anyone.

-  I’m just minding my own business and he just flies in like “hey kid, do you mind if I kill and skin you?” and then doesn’t wait for an answer

- Enough bribery money to win me the Mayor’s seat next election Sam- why??? Tucker- idk it happened in a dream once

-  SINCE WHEN DO PICKLES FLY KYLE??

-  Ghostbuster (10:42 am): [Photo: a clipping of billionaire, Vlad Masters from Rich, White Men Magazine as he toasts the camera with a glass of champagne. A curly mustache, an eye patch along with several blacked out teeth have been drawn on with a sharpie.]

-  It has been _0_ days since Danny got his skinny ghost ass beaten to the ground

-  (Video: Phantom has the front camera on while wearing a pink boa, neon green shutter glasses and a Burger King crown. He’s playfully jumping aggressively around the room to the opening of My Chemical Romance’s I’m Not Okay (I Promise).

-  [He’s wincing and trying to poke at his arm and both Sam and Tucker’s arm can be seen trying to slap him away.]

-  Phantom sighs loudly and turns from the portal to look at Sam and Tucker with longing eyes. (just this image of Danny pouting at Tucker and Sam gets me)

-  You (1:47 am): It’s almost 2 am my dude You (1:47 am): Nows not the time for an existential crisis else I’ll finish what that portal started Nearly Dead But Not Quite (1:48 am): yea ok that’s fair gnight

-  (Video: It starts in a corner of Danny’s room. There’s a multi-colored strobe light going off and Carmaladansen is playing loudly in the background. Tucker can be heard snickering slightly and humming under his breath as he gently turns the camera until it’s focused on Phantom lying face down on the floor with a small puddle of unidentifiable liquid underneath him.)

- I won’t post the whole thing but the entirety of Danny being a cryptid on Sam’s YT acct and the ensuing text conversation had me cackling

- @Homie-boy: Fenton what ghost weed did u and phantom smoke and where can i get sum?

- (Snapchat Video: Sam has the front camera on, facing herself as she rolls her eyes. Her face is mostly cut off, the video instead focuses on Danny and Tucker in the background. Danny’s eyes are glowing a neon green and he’s gripping Tucker’s arms tightly and in the midst of an aggressive pat down. Text reads, Tucker wasn’t paying attention and almost wandered into traffic so Danny’s going to fuss over him for the next eternity.)

-  Going Dead (10:13 pm): I do not control The Jazz

-  > Spectraldaisy69 @dousedinhorror • February 9 Isn’t he like dead? Does the dead cancel out the gay?

-  Casper High King @dashing_baxter • April 7 Asked if he was looking for a sidekick. Said over ‘his dead body’ but he’s already dead so I think I’m in!!!!!!

-  O Danny Boi (3:06 pm): Everything in my life is bad

-  Val the Ghost Slayer (3:08 pm): Then what the heck were they doing in there? You (3:09 pm): Knife monopoly (that whole make out closet part just sent me)

-  Ghost boy lays in streets for 15 min and cries??

- [Danny is floating face down in the pool behind him, unmoving. Text reads, the Team taking a well deserved break after an exhausting summer.] @Shadesofgrey commented: omg is Danny ok????

-  Jazz your bro looks like he’s gonna tear out that one percenter’s throat

-  >Mayor Vlad Masters @amityparkmayor • September 13 DANIEL YOU KNOW VERY WELL THAT IS NOT THE CASE. I AM REPORTING THIS DISRESPECT TO YOUR MOTHER POST HASTE.

- >Gentry @cheshirecatchild • September 13 You know @Spaceace04 has a point and the biblical Daniel was a prophet so like...

-  You (12:39 pm): :sleeping emoji: Fruitloop (12:39 pm): DANIEL YOUR HAUNT (for reasons I cant explain I think this is my favorite. Every time I think of Vlad’s VA saying this I almost cry laughing)

- Snapchat video: Danny Phantom and Danny Phantom stand in an alleyway. One is pinching the bridge of his nose in annoyance. The other stares at the camera with confused, suspicious red eyes. Tucker: Whenever you’re ready gentleghosts. The Phantoms look at each other and sigh before pointing at each other. Tucker can be heard giggling. Phantom: Thanks for humoring him, Amorpho now get out of here.)

@JasmineFenton16 commented: I’m afraid I don’t understand, what’s this referencing? @TechMaster replied: Oh you sweet summer child @JasmineFenton16 replied: But it’s fall?

Not direct quotes but just things in general

* Danny repeatedly saying he doesn’t have an obsession and him constantly bring corrected

*  Tucker going the entire damn fic not realizing he’d forgotten to make his private journal entries private until its pointed out near the end. That’s what you get for turning what was intended to be a private journal a sharable document.

* Danny/Vlad being intensely creepy/not human in public and everyone just being like..... alright then

Marvel’s What If Episode 7 Reaction

No no this is the opposite of what I wanted. More Loki! Not less!

If they don’t have Thor being an absolute idiot without Loki being his voice of reason I’m gonna be upset

Wait what the hell I saw Seth Green in the opening credits lmao??? Now I’m just thinking about Chris Griffin

DARCY

Wow they got Jane back too

Soooo how do they know about aliens?

“HOLY MOLY” lmao

Hey thor my life isn’t that dull… okay fine that’s a lie

Sooo Thor is a frat boy?

YOOOO I NEED A SCREENSHOT OF THAT ART WITH THOR AND LOKI

ALL OF IT

Soooo in this world, Odin was a good dude and didn’t kidnap Loki and gave him back to Laufey? (Didnt Laufey abandon him tho since he was too small? I guess in this universe they simply… lost their prince? Lmao?)

Thor didn’t have Loki as his voice of reason I called it.

Night night Odin

Lmao Chad Frigga dipping Odin as soon as he’s asleep

I wonder if they got Idris Elba back for Heimdall?

“We are going to the most backward, backwater planet that not even Heimdall pays attention to.” D,: Thor why you gotta do me dirty like that???

Chris Hemsworth is definitely a better voice actor than some others

Oh yo it be Skurge

Darcy into probing huh?

(Romantic Music Playing) lmao

Man I love Darcy

Poor Howard the Duck lmao (oh yea that’s Seth green)

Skrulls huh

Honestly surprised Thor knows all of these planets. Including the grandmaster??? In the sacred timeline he didn’t even know Sakaar existed.

Wait so, are the Asgardians on good terms with Jotunheim then? If so, I wanna see party loki. Or maybe he’s too reserved for that. I wonder how Laufey raised him? IF WE DONT SEE JOTUN LOKI IM GONNA RIOT

Thor destroyed a star. That sounds about right

“Now that was an excellent party. You know, we lost Fandral for three days. Found him in a barn, curled up next to a baby goat. It was classic. Isn’t that right, Fandral?” “I NAMED HIM GARY!” “Yeah, you did.” “YEA GOATS!” Okay. Screw everyone else in the MCU. I love Fandral now. He’s the GOAT, pun intended

Oh not a star, he killed a whole planet.

I thought Asgardians were supposed to be more advanced than earth but making a tablet is so complicated?

Howard and Darcy was not a pair I thought expected

Yo it’s nebula and korg? So where’s Thanos? How is nebula allowed to go partying with Thanos looking for the infinity stones?

Drax too? Isn’t he in prison? And then Valkyrie? Seems like a lot more than just Thor being an only child is different in this universe. Most of these dudes should hypothetically be in prison or on super serious missions. And I just thought, isn’t Howard the duck imprisoned by the Collector? What’s the timeline for this?

DARCY MARRIES HOWARD THE DUCK? GIRL YOU DESERVE BETTER THAN HIM AND HIS CORKSCREW WANG!

Aaaaaand Jane and Thor got magic and science tattoos. Mighty fast character progression.

Oh? Hookups? That took a turn.

Awwwww Fandral snuggling with a bunch of Chinchilla looking animals <3

Unknown caller?

Dammit Rumlow

Rocket???

Acting director??? What happened to Nick???

KORG NO

Damn everyone crashed at Jane’s

I mean, didn’t seem like too much of a threat

PHIL!!!

Lmao the world isn’t gonna be destroyed by parties?

Oh Carol Danvers?

Okay so…. Lemme get this straight..

Loki and an army of aliens attacking the world? Shield: “nah not a threat.” Robot with robot army threatening to destroy the whole planet “nah Carol has better things to do.” A partying dude from space with no ill intent but just doesn’t seem to understand consequences? “CALL CAPTAIN MARVEL WE NEED HER!!!” Yea okay Shield

Thor loves waffles

LOKI

JOTUN LOKI

HES HERE

LOKI!!!

HOLY CRAP HES HUGE

HE HAS ICE HORNS

See everything would be better without Odin’s interference.

(That’s what she said)

YAY THEYRE FRIENDS

“You’re my brother form another mother man.” YOOOOOO

Loki just sang “Brothers foreveeeeerrrrr!” I can’t—

Aaaaaand fart jokes… “did you boom?” “I never boom. I only boom in private.” Dammit marvel I hoped you were better than this.

LOKI MAKE A WISH

White snake? Lmao where did she get that name lol.

What’s wrong with a party tho? Is this really top priority? Yea they destroyed another planet, but you never explained how

Why doesn’t she sound like Brie Larson? She’s still acting for Marvel Studios so it’s interesting they couldn’t get her for it… unless it is her and I just can’t remember how her voice sounds

Was that punch really necessary? Dude wasn’t posing a threat to anyone.

“You know, there’s a Midgardian word for women like you.” THOR NO—

“PARTY POOPER!” Oh thank God

“This ones for fury” but it wasn’t even Thor that hit him? It was korg and on accident! Cmon carol, I had hoped you’d be smarter than this and more reasonable. Not resorting to violence when nothing has even escalated…

Haha hammer to the face

And the back of the head lmao

BAHAHAHAHA HE JUST SMACKED HER INTO ANOTHER COUNTRY

THOR DONT BOOP STONEHENGE

Dammit Thor

Lmao I love that the countries have their names on them.

Okay just stay and fight here away from civilian population

Marvel really giving us what we want with the most powerful characters fighting

Mary Sue Captain Marvel

Her lipstick has stayed perfect somehow

Fighting in a storm eh? Can’t see how this could go wrong

Haha hammer timeout

Lmao I wanna see Frigga put Thor in a timeout

They’re chanting pooper at her. Is this elementary school again?

Bruh I just realized, Thor is supposed to be acting king while Odin is in Odin sleep lmao. I bet Asgard is going to either be in the best peace ever without Thor or utterly destroyed.

Leave south and north Dakota alone lol

Lmao I love Darcy

YAY GARY THE GOAT WAS SAFE

Wow Jane used the L word fast

Kicking Jane out of the helicarrier? Yea smart move kicking off the person who actually knows anything about this albeit she is a little blinded by love

Giant Loki holding a tiny phone

BAHAHAAHAHA “hey earth girl, you haven’t got a friend, have you!” YES LOKI ITS ME. MARRY ME

Stop throwing phones lmao

BRUH HOW IS SURTUR NOT EVIL EITHER? AND STOP FLIRTING WITH THE STATUE OF LIBERTY.

NO HE DESTROYED HER ARM LMAO

There goes the power grid

NOT THE SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE

Lmao there he goes

WHY DID KORG HAVE A PACIFIER IN HIS MOUTH

Bout time Heimdall popped in

Aaaaaand Jane got abducted by heimdall

Seeing as Heimdall hasn’t said anything, I’m assuming they didn’t get Idris back lol.

How is shield so chill on murdering Thor? Yes he’s destructive but they’re resorting to killing him so fast instead of talking to him! No one has even told him he’s putting the planet at risk! Dudes too dumb to know on his own!

JANE STOP DRINKING

Damn Maria Hill I had higher hopes for you

Lying Thor

Okay so shield trusts Frigga to help, but still irks me that shield was so trigger/nuke happy… seems the opposite of what we’ve seen of them (ugh just gotta ignore it and chock it up to this being an alternate reality)

Ew Drax

Loki calling the other jotuns “ice bros” lmao

Hahaha how did mjolnir get so trashed

Wow thor is so much taller than Jane

Wow this Jane and Thor seem to have more chemistry than the sacred timeline version ever did

Wait I want resolve for Loki!!

Uh oh

WHAT

ULTRON VISION WITH THE INFINITY STONES?? HOW

No resolution for that??? Well then. Rip this universe too lmao

Damn I wanted more Loki

There better be a Loki centric episode sometime. If they didn’t it’d a huge missed opportunity from marvel

Okay yea looking at the credits, Carol Danvers wasn’t played by Brie Larson but a lady named Alexandra Daniels. Odd they didn’t get Brie Larson.

Probably my favorite episode so far even with how absurd it was. A lot more upbeat than the past few ones with a better resolve to the story imo.

Also, if anyone can provide me of screenshots of Loki from this episode I would be very grateful

Real love pt.1| James Potter

pairing: James potter x reader

word count: 3342 words 

warnings: FLUFFFFFFFFFFFFFF 

a/n: I know I LOVE James, but idk why he’s the only character I can write for right now. Also; this part  was inspired by another imagine but I can’t find it anymore, so if you’re reading this and this looks familiar please tell me!

This is going to be a two parts story, tell me what you think about it! <3

Summary: James asks you to be his fake girlfriend during the holydays to convince his mother that he’s completely over Lily. What happens if the relationship turns more real than they’d ever imagine.

That morning had started in the most boring way possible. No marauders in sight, no pranks, nothing, everyone had completely disappeared. It was almost Christmas break and like every other year, the exams were killing every student who studied to try and not fail anything.

Maybe the marauders were just studying. You shook your head and chuckled. No. there was no chance they were actually learning something without some cheating. 

You and the four boys – plus Lily – were good friends, mostly 'cause you and Sirius were the strange Blacks, the pair of traitors of your family that spent every summer at the Potter’s, because you couldn’t stand to be with a family that barely talked to you, only to repeat how you’d betrayed them.

You walked, slowly, toward the common room, maybe they were there. Maybe they were waiting for you. However, when you got in the room, no one was there.

“Black! Just the girl I wanted to see.” You gasped at the sudden voice that came from behind you, turning around, you saw a tall messy haired boy leaning on the doorframe.

“You gave me a fucking heart attack Potter” You scolded, crossing your arms on your chest and raising an eyebrow at him. James’ lips curved up into a smile, “forgive me, love”, your heart stopped at the nickname, you loved when he called you like that.

“What do you want from me, today?” he smiled, at your sudden question.

“Can’t a poor guy visit his best friend just because he’s a beautiful person?” you raised your eyebrows again 

“No, if the poor guy is you” He narrowed his eyes at you playfully. “Fine… I have a plan”

“I don’t want to hear it, last time you had a plan you transformed my cat into a fucking paintbrush” you shifted the weight of your body on your left foot. “That was an accident! But I swear this plan is even better. I want you to date me.”

“No.” 

“Oh c'mon, please? It’s not like it’s real, you just have to pretend. My mom always complains about how single and determined to get a girl who hates me, I am. She wants me to open my eyes and search for someone who actually wants me. And the only girl who would spend the rest of her life with me, is you” James explained proudly, giving you a grin once he’d finished talking.

“And why would I do that?” you asked, throwing yourself on the couch.

 “Because you’re beautiful and my mom loves you.”

“Still no.” you ignored the feeling of dizziness that he caused you.

“Y/n, you’re breaking my heart!” James flung his arms in the air dramatically. “Fine, hypothetically speaking, if I was to help you out… what’s in it for me?” You asked.

 “Well you know I’m an extremely handsome and good looking guy, with an amazing personality and incredible eyes” “Incredible eyes” You laughed. Your comment was loud enough to let James hear what you’d said.

 ”my eyes are beautiful, and you know that” he made his way to you and pinched your nose playfully; you crunched your lips, and looked at him with an are-you-actually-kidding expression on your face.

“Fine, if you were to date me, we’d be the talk of the school, you seem to need some popularity,” He sang, looking at you hopefully and a cheeky smirk making its way onto his face.

“I’m friends with the marauders, I’m not exactly unpopular”

“Well then, I could help you get with that Daniel boy”

Your cheeks flood red. “I don’t like Daniel!” It wasn’t a lie. Sure, Daniel was quite handsome, and perhaps you didn’t mind looking at him when he was around, but you didn’t like him, in a romantic way. He was a friend, and you were sure you were in love with someone else. Namely the boy in front of you.

"Hmm sure. So will you do it?”

Nothing good could come from this, you knew that, but just the idea that you could possibly receive an insight into what it would be like to date the James Potter had you convinced. You knew it would crush you if the plan worked and he still ended up with Lily after the break, but… you’d get to ‘date’ him first right? And possibly kiss him. And besides, it wasn’t like his parents didn’t know you, so it wouldn’t be that bad.

"Fine, I’ll do it.”

"Y/n, you are the best! Thank you!” James grabbed you and pressed a lingering kiss on your cheek, shooting you a grin and a wink before sauntering off. Your heart sped up as you felt tingling where his lips had brushed your skin.

"I fucked up… yep.” You mumbled to yourself glancing at the door that was now closed.

The next morning you felt someone fling an arm around your shoulders as you were walking towards the Great Hall. "Y/n, love, how are you this morning? Are you ready to make Lily jealous?” James asked. “James that’s not part of the plan!” you said.

“It’s a bonus” you elbowed him in the stomach making him flinch and loosen the grip around your neck.

“Lily is one of my best friends, I won’t risk losing her just because you can’t accept the fact that she doesn’t want you,” you explained.

“Okay! But did you really have to hit me?” he whimpered holding his stomach with his arms. You just ignored him.

The Great Hall bustled with students, all eating the food set out on the long tables, or chatting with their friends. James intertwined his fingers with yours, and gave them a gentle squeeze, pressing a kiss to your knuckles before leading you over to the Gryffindor table.

"Prongs!” Sirius’ happy voice rang out as you made your way over, “And Y/n! my dear sister, What a nice surprise.” “Hey Sirius,” you shot him a smile and grabbed some toast to put onto your plate. 

"Why are you two so cute and cuddly this morning?” Sirius asked, looking between you and the messy haired boy that sat right beside you, his arm wrapped around your waist. “I’m with Y/n now. It kind of started out of nowhere, that’s why I didn’t tell you Padfoot. I just realised how beautiful your sister was, and all of a sudden there we were, snogging in the library,” James said with a smirk. He didn’t lie, he really found you beautiful. 

You almost choked on your water as Sirius glared at him, “James, don’t you dare play with my sister or you can consider yourself a dead man” 

You received a couple of strange looks but ignored them, instead you continued eating your breakfast, trying not to pay attention to how good it felt to have James’ arm wrapped around you as he kept you close to him. 

It wasn’t until you noticed Lily staring at you and James with furrowed eyebrows that James started to get really close to you, not giving you the space to breathe.

 A couple of days later, you saw James walking down the hallway, an arm flung over Lily’s shoulders as she laughed at something he said.

 On one hand you felt happy for James - he was finally getting somewhere with the girl he liked. On the other hand, you could feel your heart dropping, clenching in your chest as you turned to look away. With James getting closer to Lily, it would only be a matter of time before he “breaks” up the fake relationship you had, and honestly you didn’t know if your heart could take it.

You turned away before they saw you, forced you into a conversation, and hurried back down the corridor you came from. If James had to end up with Lily, then you wanted to refrain from seeing them together for as long as possible.

***

“Y/n! You won’t believe it!” “What’s up James?” You asked with a small smile as he sat down beside you, pressing a kiss to your forehead, though you noted that no one was actually around to see.

 “Lily actually spoke to me properly today, she used my first name and everything, isn’t that great?” James gushed, his eyes shining and a big goofy grin set on his face.

 You could feel your heart shattering as you heard him talking about Lily once again, but you knew that you signed up for this. It was only fake dating, nothing more; his heart still belonged to Lily.

“Yeah that’s… great! I’m so happy for you,” you feigned happiness for him.

***

 “Hey Black, have you finished the Charms homework?” A voice whispered. You looked up to see Daniel, whom you were quite good friends with.

“No not yet, we have the whole break to finish it,” he smiled “can I sit with you in this compartment?”

“Yeah of course”

“Thanks!”

You moved a little towards the window to give him some space. You continued writing the essay you were working on as Daniel started on with Charms.

“What are you doing here?” You looked up just as James sat himself down purposely between you and Dani, and wrapped an arm around you. You glanced up at the boy confused, but answered anyway, “Oh it’s nothing. Just trying to start with the homework because I’ll be staying at your house for two weeks.” James nodded, his eyes fixated on the boy sat on the other side. 

“Oh um… James this is Daniel. Dani, James.” “Hey,” Daniel smiled as he looked up from his homework. “Yeah, hey,” James said bluntly. You gave James a questioning look, but he just ignored you. 

“So Daniel,” James began. “Yeah?” he looked up at James. “What are your intentions from this little study date? Because you should know that Y/n is mine, and I don’t share,” James all but growled, clenching and unclenching his jaw. 

“James!” You scolded; your jaw dropping.

“I-I well I mean I just want to finish my homework is all, but if you have a problem I’ll just leave if you want,” Daniel stuttered out, gathering his belongings. 

“No wait Daniel!” You tried to keep the Hufflepuff from leaving, however he just shook his head with a small smile, “I’ll just see you after the holydays Y/n. Thanks for your help today.”

“Yeah okay, see you then.”

You made sure he has left before turning back to a smug looking James Potter, anger written into your facial features. “What on earth did you do that for Potter? ‘Y/n is mine’ are you kidding me?! We’re not even dating you dumbass!”

Sirius interrupted your discussion by entering the compartment, his gaze was intently set on James, as he took a seat right opposite from you. You were sure he’d noticed the tension between you and the boy beside you. If you’d grown accustomed to the feeling of being his fake girlfriend, now it felt completely awkward.

“What’s up with you two? James’ never told me he liked you” there was a long pause.

 “He doesn’t like me, we’re just fake dating until we come back to school” you noticed the breath of relief coming from your brother’s mouth. You glanced up at James and noticed he had a blank expression; he was lost in his own thoughts. 

“Jamey, are you okay?” you asked waving a hand in front of his eyes. He opened and closed them a couple of times before setting his gaze on you.

“Sorry” he simply said. There was a pause but he spoke up again. “I mean, I just thought maybe Daniel isn’t the right boyfriend for you. Maybe there’s someone else that’s waiting for your attention, really close to you. 

Your heart fluttered at his words, even though you knew he probably didn’t mean them to sound like he was talking about himself. “It’s okay Jame” You railed off, not wanting to let yourself cling onto false hope, when you knew any day now James would be with Lily, if her sudden interest in him was anything to go by. James nodded, putting his head on your shoulder.

 Eventually even Remus, Lily and peter joined your little compartment and started chatting while you and James had drifted off to sleep.

 “He likes her. Doesn’t he?” Lily asked, watching the two of you, as you were now fast asleep on each other. Remus looked down before responding, “He does, I could see it wasn’t just a brotherly love”

 Sirius’ eyes widened in shock, “I knew she liked him, but I didn’t think he liked her back! I mean he was all focused on you Lily” the redhead girl on his right laughed softly, “Sirius, you’re really blind. Aren’t you? He’s stopped pining over me a long time ago, when he found out Y/n had started liking that Daniel guy,” she explained, her voice low so you wouldn’t wake up.

 ***

 You, your brother and James had finally arrived to his house. When you got in, decorations invaded the whole house. Euphemia was quietly humming to a wordless tune while she prepared dinner, while Fleamont opened the door for you.

“Hey Y/n you’ve grown quite a lot since last summer, you’re even more beautiful! Oh Sirius, my precious boy, stop being so handsome, every girl in school will start to drool over you” A smile made its way onto your face involuntarily. “James, son, what’s up?” his father simply greeted him like that, and even if he faked some offence, his lips slightly curved up into a smile.

Euphemia stopped with everything she was doing, glancing in your direction. “Didn’t I tell you to bring a real girlfriend this year, James, dear?” you blushed heavily while James snuck an arm around your waist, this was the time. You had to start pretending in front of the people who knew you the most.

 “Mom, I did bring my girlfriend”. His mom noticed how he looked down at you, as if you were some kind of rare stone and grinned proudly “I knew you were going to end up together sooner or later.” Your heart skipped a beat; did that mean that she knew that you liked his son? No way.

 You smiled kindly at the woman that had been taking care of you for the past two years, ignoring the burning sensation of James’ hands laying on your side, as your fake boyfriend positioned you right in front of him so you could lean on his chest. 

“Can I help you with anything Euphemia?” you asked, the heat radiating from James body becoming suddenly unbearable, as your heart raced in your ribcage.

“Oh don’t worry dear, go to your room and relax, Sirius, my boy, you can go too” she stopped and looked to her son “James, my dear, you’ll stay with me” she stated with a smirk plastered on her wrinkled, but still beautiful, face. 

You turned around, grinning as you expected some remark from the boy, but he just smiled and kissed your nose, “go, mom is going to interrogate me like I’m some kind of criminal and I want to save you from that” he whispered onto your ear, sending shivers all down your spine. You nodded and followed your brother to the second floor where all three of you had your rooms.

“I hope he’ll keep you this happy forever,” Sirius said alluding to the bright, wide smile that was on your lips.

You smacked his shoulder playfully “it’s fake, Sirius, this smile is going to disappear soon” you said, earning a tired huff from the dark haired boy next to you “I promise you, you’re not going to get hurt, I know James” you shrugged and opened your room’s door, when you got in, and closed the door, you remained immobile.

Your room was like the one you had when you lived with the Black’s, there was a queen-sized bed right in the middle of the room, and the walls were covered in constellations to let you study the sky without going outside. Sometimes you would ramble about it in front of James as he sat on your bed on late summer nights, listening to you even though he could not understand a single word.

You’d missed this house, it was the best thing that had happened in a while—beside James, he was the number one— and you liked to call it home, because it felt like it. Here you were treated like a family member by everyone and you were grateful for it.

You laid down on your bed, sinking in the soft and recently washed blanket. Your eyes set on the dark grey ceiling as you started thinking straight once again. You liked being James’ girlfriend, but you totally already knew he was trouble and you were well aware of what you were getting into, but you still couldn’t help but think of the possibility that maybe James liked you too.

Your thoughts were abruptly interrupted when a hazel-eyed boy opened the door of your bedroom and threw himself on the bed with a little “oof” making you bounce on the mattress. His lips were curved up in a small smile that still managed to make you feel dizzy, and his eyes were now set on you, the pair of hazel eyes you’d grown to love watched you like his only goal in life was to love you, and you were completely oblivious to that.

 “She believed it!” he exclaimed. You faked a smile, you didn’t want him to think you didn’t want to do all this fake dating thing, but you surely didn’t want to get hurt at the end of it. “What did she tell you?” you asked referring to why his mother had kept him from going to his room like you and your brother did.

 “Oh she just told me how much she loves you and me and how we’re so cute together” you were sure his smile faltered for a split second, but you weren’t sure about the reason. “Oh, so we’re cute” you stated, your smile growing genuine at the thought of the two of you being a real couple. James chuckled. 

“we are” he whispered, more to himself that to you, but you smiled nevertheless because that meant he had thought at least one time about you and him dating.

He sneaked an arm around your neck and brought you closer to him so that now your head was laying on his shoulder. It was a feeling that you couldn’t quite place, but it was so relaxing and comforting. His heartbeat was steady and it almost lulled you to sleep.

“Y/n?” he mumbled “yes?” he grinned playfully “what do you want to eat for dinner?” you couldn’t help but laugh at the question, “what about something Italian?” you asked, your love for Italian food was well known by everyone in the family. You heard him giggle at you “mom doesn’t know how to make Italian dishes, you know that” you put an arm around his torso and chuckled “I know, I know, I was just kidding, anything Euphemia wants, is okay with me. She’s an amazing cook.” 

“About that, do you want to invite someone for the famous Potter Christmas party?” James changed the topic. Honestly you hadn’t really thought about the party yet, last year you went with lily—mostly because James wanted her there—but this year was different, you were his “girlfriend” and Euphemia would’ve gotten suspicious if the girl that his son had pinned over for an awfully long time came to the party.

 “what about Marlene?” you asked “Sirius already asked her” you huffed stopping for a second to think who could come, then you thought about Deneb, your cousin and best friend since you were little “Deneb! She doesn’t want to spend Christmas with our family either” you exclaimed. James chuckled at your enthusiasm and nodded “send her an owl, the party is in three days”

Dear readers,

I am hearing wedding bells as the last of my unmarried friends is tying the knot today. I don’t know what dress to pick yet, especially as the weather is being a bit temperamental, but at least one rule is a nice to follow guideline; no white unless you’re the bride. Which is a bit of a strange thing isn’t it? Why do European brides wear white dresses, when practically all of them are far from innocent and pure virgins? I have looked it up, just for the fun of it, and the answer to this question is surprisingly British in its origins.

The very same British queen who made Christmas trees popular, was apparently also the one to set the trend to opt for white wedding dresses. She thought the white would best highlight the delicate lacework she had chosen for her dress, though the other, true reason for selecting white (originally used in times of mourning) was less pragmatic and more romantic; she wanted to marry Prince Albert not as a queen, but as a woman who loved the man she was about to marry. The dress did that by reflecting her purity, innocence, and good sense, the usual hefty royal crown also having been replaced by a flower wreath on her head. Now, my dear readers, that is about as romantic as life is going to get. 

Queen Victoria brought romance and tenderness to an up to that point rather unromantic affair. And for that she is my personal hero.

Romance isn’t dead, long live the queen!

Ali

‘Blue suits you.’ Henry smiled, leaning closer to my chair as dinner was running to an end. I smiled, eyeing him in his sharp cut tuxedo, his usually curly hair tamed back into a smooth coupe.

Would his kids have those curls too? Ugh, don’t think about it Ali.

‘Thanks.’ I whispered, the party now erupting in loud applause as it was apparently time for the first dance, the music swivelling over the classically laid out ball-room floor. It was a nicely set out space; white clothed tables for dinner on the far end and a large dancing area in the middle, a bar and DJ on the sides. No need to move locations, no need to fuss and there even was a little children’s nook with a babysitter, so the parents could indulge themselves in some champagne and good conversation.

Very smart thinking.

‘And now..a warm applause for the groom and bride. Our dear Daniel and Loïs...’ The DJ purred with a deep, husky voice into the microphone, some people laughing at the overly sensual tone of his voice, another applause quick to erupt through the thickening crowd around the dance floor. Me and Henry joined in, Henry moving his fingers to his lips to whistle, the energy of the whole room elated as the bridal pair swivelled in happy circles around the dance floor.

Once it was decent to stop applauding, the newly weds gleaming and beaming on the dance floor, more couples started to join.

Love was in the air.

‘Would you do me the honours?’ Henry asked politely, bowing slightly as he reached out for my hand. I giggled, nodding my head in delight, my hand simply taking his and letting him pull me close to his chest - closer than was truly necessary. ‘Such a romantic.’ I laughed. ‘Oh you know me.’ He buttered, smoothly snaking his arm lower on my naked back.

He wished to make it clear we weren’t just friends. 

‘You were already a romantic from the moment you could talk.’ I said, leaning back into his arm so I could see his deep blue eyes, my eyes missing the fact that more than a few people in the crowd were studying me and Henry - Henry was after all a famous face to see and up till this point we had kept our intimate gestures to an absolute minimum.

‘Remember when we were dating in your college years?’ He said, leading me with slow, but well coordinated steps past a few couples until we reached the most inner circle of the dancing crowd. ‘Sure. The rose petals on my bed and all.’ - ‘Yep..me near breaking my back trying to climb up to your room.’ We both sniffled, my cheeks glowing from his body heat and the sweet memory. 

‘You know, I’m really sorry for how it ended back then.’ His voice took on a more serious tone.

Our eyes met again as our feet carried us effortlessly over the smooth lacquered floor, the music of the first song carefully being mixed into another slow-dance tune. I swallowed at the vision of him, his eyes near sorrowful, pleading me to forgive him. One moment I felt myself floating like a feather, the next I felt heavy as a rock, my heart guilt tripping as I looked into his deep blue puppy eyes.

‘We were young Henry. No need to forgive..or forget. We had our fun, but it couldn’t work. You were getting your first big gigs, and I was not able to be without you, besides I had my work and my Master’s degree. I mean..’ I shrugged, feeling his warm hand brush comfortingly over the small of my back. ‘Still, we didn’t really end it well.’

‘Yea..it was a bit..sudden.’ I leaned back into his chest, not wishing to show him what I was thinking; would it happen again? It always started off well, but once Henry’s life got more career focused, there was no space left for me to live and breathe in. He also leaned in closer, understanding the hint, his nose breathing warm air in the shell of my ear.

‘Please be with me Ali. When I said I was committed; I am.’

I didn’t answer.

—

‘Hey sweetie! Had fun?’ Mom was sitting at the kitchen table wearing her fluffy slippers and pink bathrobe, hair pinned around some candy coloured foam rollers and make-up still on fleek - she looked like she came straight from the 50s. I grumbled something indiscernible, wishing to just grab another glass of wine before retreating to my room. ‘Sweetie?’ She asked, wishing for me to answer. 

‘Mommm.’ I sighed, annoyance thick in my voice. 

‘You look very pretty by the way. All for Henry?’ She tried, raising a pair of teasing eyebrows. ‘Ugh..mom. Just..not now okay?’

‘Okay then..’ She said, her eyes still following me as I pulled open the fridge door, her lips blowing over her cup of late night hot milk. ‘I can make you some hot milk if you’d like.’ She tried again.

I don’t know whether it was the champagne in my veins or the fact that I had been a bit blunt with Henry, but before I knew it I started to shake, a few silent tears coiling down my cheeks as I tried to pour in some wine - but failing. Miserably failing. Just like my life. 

‘Alright alright.’ Mom got up from her chair and took the bottle from me. 

‘Looks like you’re not chatty tonight.’ She moved her arm to brush a lock of hair behind my ear, but I evaded her touch. ‘Ugh..I feel like a teenager again, mom. And I hate it, I’m 37. I ain’t got time for this!’ 

‘Oh baby pea..come,’ She pushed me towards her chair, strong mom hands pressing me down to sit. ‘..let’s make you some hot milk.’ She said simply, turning on her slippers and moving back to the stove to heat up some milk. 

With her back still turned towards me she continued: ‘You know, you don’t always have to be so harsh on yourself, Ali sweet. Just try and enjoy life a little.’ 

I knew she meant those words well, but I didn’t share the feeling. Not right now. More tears burst through the high walls I had built and I quickly shielded my eyes with my hands, the fear of missing out on some of life’s greater experiences - having a lovely marriage and kids - haunting my every shivery breath. 

‘I don’t know if i can, mom. I’m trying, really. It’s just..hard. I feel like its a bit of my last chance and..ugh..I don’t know.’ I wiped away my mascara draining tears when she placed a steaming mug of hot milk before me. 

‘I know baby. I know.’

WE’RE GHOSTS.  ----  A.M. ;

summary: you, on a flight of fate, buy a journal belonging to an A. MORGAN. turns out it’s haunted. based on this plot idea i threw out into the world this morning. word count: who knows, this is v. freeform, i did not count pairing: ghost!arthur x reader, w/ a twist a/n: me? a ghost fan? yea. so far, this is a stand-alone fic. the end is loose, so if folks want another part, leave a lil comment, send my dumb ass an ask, i love ghost fics.

The journal comes with more questions than anything.

The withered pages are rich with personal history. quick, sketched-out drawings of places visited are accompanied by the smudge of fingerprints along the dog eared pages. The words, in practiced script, are incredibly human -- loss, heartbreak, happiness...

And then it just ends.

There’s pages left to be filled at the end, at-least twenty or so, and you find yourself wondering what in the world happened to A. MORGAN.

Things start moving.

It’s... little things.

Like, the can of beans from your cabinet is suddenly on the counter one morning. Your knife drawer, you find, slides open randomly. You blame it all on forgetfulness and loose hinges.

An old photo falls off the wall one night, scaring you half to death -- you pull yourself from the sheets, bleary eyed from sleep and confusion, to find the frame in the middle of the hall.

The snow around the family of deer glints in the light of the moon.

You blink, swearing you saw a reflection in the glass.

You ignore it. You put the picture back on the wall and move on.

It’s nearly winter.

The house creaks more, lonely and quiet, but full to the brim with something you can’t quite put your finger on. It feels heavier and you stoke the fireplace wondering if some time away from your family’s cabin would put you at ease.

The house was passed down to you when your parents moved south, chasing retirement and heat. You didn’t have the heart to let them put it on the market. Too many good memories.

But, now? Those are being snuffed out by nameless anxieties.

The noises haven’t stopped -- in fact, they’ve only gotten worse.

Things have started to move in the attic. You don’t have the heart to go up there. Instead, you lay in bed, as still as you can, while old furniture shifts above you.

The tinker of spurs on the floors up there is like bells in the wind.

The kitchen.

The sounds are coming from the kitchen.

It’s the shattering of glass that separates this from all the other incidents. This time, the baseball bat in your hands is gripped with a ferocious need for protection -- and you pad into the kitchen quiet as a mouse, fight or flight driving your hands to shake and eyes to dart.

When you pass the threshold of the kitchen, your jaw drops.

A bottle of Jack Daniels is spinning on its side on the quartz island, whiskey pouring from the bottle. Three shot glasses lined up and full, one shattered on the kitchen floor. Every drawer is open, as if someone had been searching for something...

And the journal sits, open, on the kitchen table. It’s on an early entry. One about the town of Valentine and a rowdy night in the local saloon.

“How the fuck --” you utter, reaching to touch the journal.

And as your fingers skim the page, all the lights in the kitchen strobe in one big flourish, bulbs shattering like gunshots in glittered little filaments as you screech, jumping six feet in the air.

Then the drawers, ramming back and forth and you realize it’s the knife drawer again -- and suddenly, a butcher knife sails across the room and embeds itself in the wall beside your head.

Right through a canvas painting of a white tailed buck in the snow.

The guy at Home Depot didn’t say a word when you bought four whole packs of new light bulbs, plaster, and chains at check out. The look on his face was sympathetic.

You get an extra shot in your coffee order on your way back to the Antique Store, journal in hand.

Well, not in hand. It’s rubber-banded shut in the backseat, weighed down by an old bible you found in a drawer in the guest room.

“All sales are final,” says the owner, shaking his head, “I finally got rid a’ that thing --”

“Yeah,” you bite, “And I haven’t gotten a wink of sleep since.”

“Here,” he says, cashing open the register and handing you a ten dollar bill, “Have your money. But, I ain’t taking that thing back... Why don’t you go burn it?”

Your eye twitches.

“You’re kidding.”

“Just burn it.”

You gawk at your friend, eyes pulled wide as you stab your steak.

“I can’t... I can’t do that --”

“It’s haunted, dude.”

“Yeah, but it’s... history.”

“Haunted history,” she muses over her wine, “It’s ruining your home --”

She gestures to the fresh plaster over your shoulder. The knife had left a good hole. Across from you, the pantry is chained closed and so is the drawer belonging to the aforementioned knife.

“ -- So, dowse it in holy water and burn it.”

“You’re kidding.”

She wasn’t. And the owner of the Antique Store wasn’t either.

The internet agrees with them.

You’ve been doing a lot of research.

Your knee bounces, lip pulled between your teeth as you eye the journal sitting before you on the kitchen counter. You’re worrying, torn between a deep regret of burning lost history -- I mean, the guilt of destroying A. Morgan’s life... the last living document of it...

The pantry door creaks open behind you.

“Will you stop?” you snap finally, words hiking in irritation, “Stop it.”

A moment’s pause.

And then it shuts.

You gawk, eyes darting to the journal as you round the counter. Your eyes narrow, finger darting out. 

“Listen up, Morgan --” you mutter, “I dunno who you think you are --”

The faucet behind you turns on.

“I pay the bills,” you say slowly, “I live here, and you’re more than welcome to stay but you need to stop scaring me.”

The faucet cuts abruptly in a cough. You spin, eyeing it in bewilderment.

“I’m going crazy,” you breathe, “I’m talking to a book.”

Suddenly there’s a hand on your hip. Like someone trying to pass by. 

You let him.

You step out of the shower one morning and there’s a hand-print in the steam of the mirror.

“If you’re tryin’ to peep on me in the shower,” you say quietly. “I’ll kill you.”

You swear you hear a laugh over your shoulder.

Humming. 

It’s like the fading of a song, in and out, and you can’t tell where it’s coming from. It pulls you from your sleep and as soon as you open your eyes you feel the weight of the bed shift.

Silence.

Things quiet down.

No more shattered glasses, no more flying knives, no more exploding bulbs. The pantry stays closed, but the beans keep appearing here and there -- which you don’t really mind.

A. Morgan’s journal has it’s own spot on your kitchen table now.

The touching happens more often. Most recently, you’d felt a hand on your shoulder while you’d sat and watched television in the living room. 

You look over the back of the couch.

“... Hello?”

Silence.

Things in the attic, however, are louder than ever.

You still don’t have the courage to go up there.

You settle on bundling up, after all it’s winter. And you need the coats that are up there. But, there’s something holding you back. You worry that going up there will shift the dynamic you’ve seemed to have settled into with the other guest in your home.

“You know,” you say politely in the direction of the journal as you’re cooking dinner, “I wish you’d keep it down up there --”

The attic floorboards creak and a bang! resounds through the house.

Your hand flies to your heart.

A low rumble of laughter carves through the dining room.

It’s a frigid Sunday morning when you decide to brave it. You pull the hatch down in the hallway, attic ladder folding out as you heave a sigh and try to keep your wits about you.

“I just need my jackets --” you say gently as you ascend the steps slowly, flashlight clicking on in your hands, “I’ll get them and get outta your hair, Morgan -- I...”

Your jaw drops.

The attic is...

“Oh my god.”

A mess.

“What the hell have you been up to...?” you breathe, stepping over mounds of clothes spilling from box overturned on the floor.

The furniture is old -- passed down to your mom’s mom by her mom. Inside are old dresses, old shirts, furs and scarves and hats and... the doors to the wardrobe are open, exposing the now bare mahogany of the back. It’s been emptied, and you breathe a soft exclamation of shock as you near it, stepping over the pastel fabrics pooled on the floor.

In the back of the dresser, there are scratches.

WHERE AM I?

As you read it, your breath curls around you.

You feel like you’ve been shoved into an icebox. Behind your eyes, a shallow grave in the middle of winter flashes like a bad dream. 

There’s a sound over your shoulder then, like a cough, and you spin -- eyes dilating in the dark as your flashlight follows. The whole attic has been torn through.

It smells like tobacco.

The doors to the wardrobe slam shut then with a desperate rattle and you jump, eyes peeled wide as the mirrors fixed to the outer doors glimmer back at you.

The man in the reflection looks scared.

And then he’s gone.

You ask your coworker to help you move the wardrobe one afternoon.

“Nice piece a’ furniture,” he’d remarked as he helped you maneuver it down the ladder, “Where’s it going?”

“My room --” you say, straining to lift the heavy piece, “I felt guilt having this up there in the dark.”

“Nice place.”

You nearly jump out of your skin.

You’re working at your desk when you hear it, head snapping to the sound -- it’s gone in a beat, fading into the back of your mind and you’re left wondering if it even happened.

And... then you smell the tobacco.

Smoke curls in the rays of the winter afternoon sun pouring through the windows.

The reflection -- it’s not you. It’s him. You freeze, eyes trying their best to memorize the figure of the reclined outlaw. He’s on your bed, like a man out of time, hat tipped low to hide everything but the cut of his jaw. He’s looking at you, you realize, and when you turn to look at the spot on the bed, you see there’s an imprint. 

“Thanks,” you says slowly, “You’ve certainly settled in.”

A laugh. In one ear, rattling around and out the other.

Blue eyes meet yours in the reflection.

There’s blood on his collar.

And then he’s gone.

“Who’re you?”

You pull your eyes up from his journal. 

In the wardrobe mirror, his reflection paints him long and broad and rugged. His hat is in hands, calloused and bruised, and he looks pale; his cheeks are gaunt and eyes a bit hollow, but you can see the handsome cut of his profile more clearly now without his hat obscuring the view. He’s hunched over the side of the bed. 

A. Morgan is scared.

“I, uh... I should be asking you that, I think.”

“Arthur.”

Silence. The smell of tobacco is all that lingers behind.

You buy a book -- GUNSLINGERS & THE WEST, a collection of biographies by Theodore Levin. It’s the only thing you can find that mentions Arthur Morgan, aside from a few old newspaper clippings that briefly mention a man of the same name from a town called Blackwater. 

The history is a bit muddied, the newspaper articles only giving you pieces of the picture.

The book helps.

He was a member of the Van der Linde’s... some gang from back in the day. Son of Lyle and Beatrice Morgan. Surname is Welsh. Born in 1863. It doesn’t tell you much more than that., only that Arthur helped Levin composite some of the images and stories in his book.

How nice of him.

“Y’ still didn’t say who y’ are.”

You jump fifty feet in the air.

The bathroom mirror is dark, but you can see him there over your shoulder as the faucet runs -- the glow of a lit cigarette hangs from his lips. There’s the smell again. His spurs jingle as he settles against the sill.

You rub at the sleep in your eyes. 

It’s 3am. 

“Am I dead?”

You don’t know how to answer him. 

He disappears in an exhale of smoke.

On the table in the kitchen, pages of his journal begin to turn.

Without prompting, you tell him your name.

You’re chopping carrots for stew as you speak.

The pages stop.

“I think you’re dead,” you say softly, “I think -- I don’t know. I think you’ve been dead for a long time... I’m sorry, Arthur.”

Your house is quiet for a few days. 

Eerily so.

You’d become used to the weight of someone else’s energy in the house for so long that... well, you’re a little worried that your words in the kitchen the other dat had maybe been cause enough for him to move on.

And that’s when the dreams start.

Laughter. The burn of whiskey bubbles in your throat. There’s a smile on your lips and a hand dragging you to the fire and sweet words being chirped into your ear. 

Suddenly, you realize, this isn’t your life.

“Wha’s wrong, sweetpea, huh?”

Blue eyes glimmer with worry, lacking hollow divide.

The faces around the fire have no discernible features. When you think you’ve nailed them down, they melt into a changing river of expressions. Blurred. Running like rain. Panic rises in your throat.

Arthur’s face is the last thing you see before you wake up.

You’re not supposed to be there.

“I know you.”

You think maybe he’s right.

His hands are on your skin, searing and hot and dangerously tempting. They hike up your thighs, mouth pressed hotly to your own -- the moments twists like a knife in your gut and you’re pushing it away, hands shoving in a flurry of confusion.

This isn’t right, this isn’t your life.

Arthur’s face is flooded with concern. 

A beat passes. Heavy breaths linger between you both. Finally, from above him in his lap, you speak.

“You do know me.”

“Who is she?”

Arthur clears his throat. He’s coughing, heavy and wet, into his arm. Blood runs down his chin. It hurts, the mere sound of it, and his breath runs ragged.

“I was gonna marry her.”

“Is that how you know me?”

He doesn’t need to say a word. You know the answer already.

Fate’s a funny thing.

i found this on YouTube from Ashton Daniel so im gonna link their original video since its his tag but i thought it would be fun to do it as well

NONBINARY TAG

1. Let's do the basics - what's your gender and what're your pronouns? (tell me all your gender labels!!)

id say nonbinary and genderfluid fits best

and i mainly use they/them pronouns but at times im okay with he/him or she/her pronouns as well depending on how i feel on the gender spectrum i guess

2. Do you consider yourself to be under the trans umbrella, or is being nonbinary separate from that for you?

i personally feel that at least for myself nonbinary doesn't count as trans but im sure for others it does just i dont identify with the trans label

3. How do you feel about the label "enby"? Do you use it for yourself?

yes i do use it and i think it sounds lovely actually

4. What song is your gender?

am i a girl - poppy

5. Do you experience gender euphoria and if so, what causes it?

yea i do when i look/pass as androgynous or masc depending on how i feel that day/time

6. What's a question you're tired of being asked?

im actually not out to many people yet so there arent any yet but something thats annoying is telling someone i identity as nonbinary and they keep calling me girl

7. What outfits, accessories, presentations do you feel most yourself in? Is your style connected to your gender for you?

yes my style is connected to my gender so it fluids all the time really but baggy clothes and more masc jewelry does like chains and safety pin earrings and stuff like that or random objects as earrings like the other day i made small rubics cube earrings which i really like and also definitely wearing a beanie and having my hair in it (making it look short)

8. Have you identified with different genders, nonbinary or otherwise, in the past?

well ive identified with my birth gender before but im not sure if i actually did or if i just didnt really question my gender before cuz i knew im not a boy so i must be cis then idk

9. Are there gendered phrases or words you like/don't like? Dude, gal, man, sis, etc?

i don't really like gendered words in general id rather be refered to as genderneutral terms

10. What compliments best suit your gender? Handsome, beautiful, pretty, hot, stunning, etc?

i actually haven't thought about that yet but i think im fine with either ones? idkk

11. What's your favourite gender-neutral alternative to commonly gendered words? (e.g. sib instead of brother/sister, mx instead of miss/mr, enby instead of boy/girl, etc?)

just refer to me as a person like i dont feel the need to have a certain gender to be addressed as but yea genderneutral ones are good too like mx and enby and goddex or royalty instead of king/queen

12. Do you like the nonbinary pride flag for yourself? Do you prefer the trans flag, or a flag more specific to your gender?

yea i do like the nonbinary one

13. Are physical and/or medical transition important to you? If so or if not and you want to expand, do so!

no well not medical/surgical but i was thinking about getting a binder/sports bra and maybe something to make my hips not look so wide

14. Are there any nonbinary people you look up to? If so, who?

im not sure tbh but i have some nonbinary friends and i told one of them

15. How do you write "nonbinary"? one word, two words, with a dash?

i write it as nonbinary so one word

16. If you are/were to be someone's significant other, how would you want to be referred to? Boyfriend, girlfriend, theyfriend, partner, lover, etc?

probably partner or like their person but maybe if my gender leans more towards one side then id like to be referred as boyfriend or girlfriend but probably not really boyfriend cuz that term sounds toxic to me since most of my relationships with guys were toxic so i guess partner or girlfriend

17. Are you out in your day-to-day life, just online, just to close friends, etc?

just online i wanna figure it out first before i come out in rl and other then being called sky it wouldn't really change much since german doesn't have they/them pronouns

18. Are there any silly nonbinary stereotypes you embrace? e.g. pride flag stuff, coloured hair, liking plants, cats, whatever else?

yea i have piercings and dyed hair even tho its only split dye and a natural red but i wanna dye it purple or blue if im able to and i do have two pride flags hanging up in my home and some pride wallpapers and i kinda like cats plants and rocks

19. Does the word "queer" fit you, do you use it for yourself?

yea i think it really does and i do use it as a umbrella term meaning im part of the lgbtq+ community and bc i havent found a right label that completely fits me yet sexuality wise as well

20. This isn't nonbinary related, I just think it's a cool question. If you could go to any concert of any band, artist, performer, living or dead, what's the lineup?

probably gay/indie music so like

girl in red,hayley kiyoko,cavetown,dodie,jessiepaege

cant think of more artists rn oop
