Bridgerton proposals rated by level of chaos
Anthony - While courting her sister, Anthony panics when Kate is stung by a bee, proceeds to attempt to suck out the poison from her clavicle, and is caught by their mothers and Lady Featherington. Lady F says they'll have to marry and Anthony announces they'll be married next week. No proposal, Kate is never consulted. Anthony then ravishes her in the gazebo. 10/10. Complete Chaos.
Benedict - After repeatedly propositioning Sophie to be his live-in mistress, Benedict finds out she has been arrested for theft, shows up at the jail, punches the warden, and demands to know why his fiancé is being held prisoner. No proposal. Lady B almost punches Sophie's evil stepmother. 12/10. Utter Chaos.
Colin - Like a day after realizing that he finds Penelope incredibly attractive, Colin chases her through London, discovers she's Lady Whistledown, throws her in his carriage, lectures her, ravishes her, then they arrive back at her house and he hops out of the carriage and says, "well are you going to marry me or not?" Technically a proposal. 7/10. Chaos compounded by Lady F somehow thinking he's proposing to Pen's little sister.
Daphne - Daphne disrupts a duel for her honor, punches Simon in the eye, and insists he marry her because their garden makeout session was seen. Simon say he cannot have children, omitting that it's a personal choice and not a medical condition, and Daphne says good to know not a problem we're doing this. No real proposal. No one's happy with the outcome. Pistols and bickering big brothers in attendance for added chaos. 8/10
Eloise - Phillip proposes in a letter before they ever meet, failing to mention he has two children. Eloise packs a bag and leaves for his house without telling anyone. Phillip is shocked to discover her on his doorstep. The brothers are forced to ride after to her to defend her honor. Eloise doesn't understand why everyone's making such a fuss. Colin grumbles he's meant to be on his honeymoon. Beautiful Eloise-brand chaos abounds. 7/10
Francesca - Michael pines for a decade. He proposes. Franny says no. They have sex. He proposes. She says maybe. They have more sex. He nearly dies of malaria. Eventually they get married. By any other family's standards, it would be legendary chaos, but we're talking about the Bridgertons. 5/10
Gregory - HOO BOY. Gregory proposes/propositions Lucy despite her being engaged to someone else. She agrees but then is threatened by her treasonous uncle and goes through with the original marriage. Gregory interrupts the wedding. Lucy turns him down in front of the whole Ton. At the reception Gregory kidnaps her, then gets into a shootout with her uncle. Her now-husband agrees to annul the marriage. Absolute freaking chaos. No notes. 27/10
Hyacinth - Despite midnight rendezvous, breaking and entering, and a treasure hunt, Hyancinth's proposal is shockingly normal. Gareth formally asks Anthony's permission, then gets down on one knee and proposes properly. 2/10. Mildly disappointing, considering H's chaotic personality.

Batfam’s opinion on weed? Do they smoke?
Bruce= No. He doesn't mind other people smoking/eating edibles/etc. But it's not for him. He's too paranoid about /getting/ paranoid while high. Plus he doesn't want to get called in for an emergency or something and has to show up high. He did smoke a bit in his high school years though with Harvey.
Kate= Not until she was 30. She grew up with a strict father and joined the military at 17 and had a long career there and they did drug tests so she never could. She uses it medicinally to help with her anxiety/PTSD when she leaves the military. (She also goes to therapy, don't worry).
Luke= No. Was always too scared of what his father would think if he found out, and didn't want to disappoint him so he never touched it. Recreational smoking also wasn't legal in NJ until 2021 so he doubly wasn't gonna risk it.
Barbara= Smoked in highschool/early college mainly to help de-stress, but doesn't anymore as she's developed new ways to deal with her stress over the year. Very rarely (maybe once or twice a year) she'll have one of Jason's edibles.
Dick= Occasionally. Not until he was in his 20's and mainly to help with any pain he has. Every once in a while he will recreationally when he's with a group and they're doing a sesh.
Jason= Yes. He's invited to the monthly sesh with the rogues too. He prefers edibles though and likes putting them in the brownies he makes. He's the go to edible guy in the family/his friend group. His brownies are GREAT.
Cass = No. Never has and never will. Not for any particular reason, she just doesn't personally find the appeal (and there is nothing wrong with that).
Steph: Yes. Actually got caught smoking in the school's bathroom for the first time in 8th grade getting herself suspended for two weeks. Promised she'd never touch weed again, which was a lie. Heavily smoked in highschool, and slowed down after she turned 18. Smokes at least once a week. And LOVES Jason's brownies and will nab some whenever she gets the chance.
Tim: Yes. But he has to smoke with other people. For whatever reason if he smokes alone he gets super paranoid. He needs to be surrounded by people he trusts to comfortably smoke. Doesn't like getting high in front of his family (even if he knows they won't mind) so only does so with his friends.
Duke: Tried once with a friend when he was 16 but it was laced with something else and he had a BAD trip which completely turned him off from it. His family and friends have offered to get him weed and ensure themselves that it isn't laced with anything, but again his one experience has completely turned him off from it. Maybe when he's much older and removed from the experience he'll try again.
Damian: No. He's thirteen. When he's older though and his family/friends offer him, he still refuses. He thinks he's "above drugs" which makes the rest of the family roll their eyes at him. He sees that his father doesn't, so he refuses to as well. (In his last year of college Jon convinces him to smoke just this once, and he relents. He will never admit he enjoyed the experience)

Down Low - KM
Pairing: Kate Martin x Reader
Summary: After figuring out what you have is real, you and Kate navigate keeping your relationship on the down low (based on THIS request)
Warnings: very mildly suggestive, fluff
Word Count: 1.4k
Sweetbans Masterlist
AN: Here is another cute KM fic!
"So how are we going to do this?" You ask the girl sitting on your bed. She is wrapped in one of your sweatshirts and holding Stuffy, the teddy bear you refuse to sleep without.
She shrugs. Neither of you really know what to say.
"We take it one day at a time and if it gets weird or hurts the team we stop," Kate says, looking down at the arms of the teddy bear she is playing with.
You nod. Neither of you really want to stop what you are doing.
You and Kate are heading into your fourth year at Iowa while Kate is entering her fifth. The two of you have been doing this little dance around your feelings for the past three years. That is until the two of you both decided to stay around during the summer. Summer was really only about 6 weeks but it was enough for you and her to start exploring the unspoken feelings each of you has been harboring. And boy were the two of you glad you did.
The two of you spent the past six weeks exploring the city and each other. It could not have been better. But now that summer is over and the team is getting back to start pre-season workouts the two of you are faced with reality.
"Mmmhmmm, one day at a time," you repeat what she says but can't hide the disappointment in your tone.
Kate stands up and comes to wrap herself around you. You turn to face her and nuzzle your way into her neck, breathing her in.
"When I say one day at a time, I don't mean my feelings for you. Baby, those are sure but one day at a time with the team, okay?" She explains, trying to reassure you.
You nod into her and know that is what she meant, but you can't help but want this little world the two of you have created to continue forever. Forever in your little bubble was unrealistic.
You let your hands that are wrapped around the taller girl sneak underneath the sweatshirt and allow your fingertips to dance across the skin of her back.
"Why can't we stay like this forever?" You ask, knowing reality is knocking at the door.
"I wish we could, I really wish we could," she says.
The team gets back and you and Kate go back to being 'just friends'. At least, friends in the eyes of the world. But the two of you are still very much figuring out what the two of you look like with everyone else around. As time passed and the two of you established this wasn't just a summer fling, you got so used to keeping your relationship between the two of you that neither of you felt the need to change anything up.
A few months pass and you couldn't be happier. The season is in full swing as games are beginning.
It is a full-team practice day before a big game coming up.
You are intently watching your team run a defensive rotation when Kate comes flying through, getting the block on one of the practice guys.
The team goes crazy as the team on the floor goes to chest bump and gives Kate her flowers.
"FREAKING MOTHER," Jada yells as the team celebrates Kate. The cheers are loud.
"Ha, more like daddy," you mutter out loud before you can catch yourself. You look around to see if anyone caught you little slip and it doesn't look like they had.
To be fair, you and Kate have been pretty active in the bedroom which may or may not be consuming your mind more often than not. It had been a newfound nickname for your girl that was up until this moment only used in the confines of your home.
When you think you are in the clear, you pat Kate's back and head to set up in your zone when you hear it.
"Oh shit," Caitlin says. "OH SHIT!"
Caitlin turns to you and puts her hands on your shoulders.
"Did you just say what I think you said?" Caitlin asks, squeezing your shoulders.
"I don't know what you are talking about," you say trying to cover up your slip.
Caitlin stares you down.
"I know you better than you know yourself, you would not go around calling just anyone that nickname," Caitlin says trying to pull your eye contact which you are actively avoiding.
"Fine, don't say anything but something is going on," Cait says letting you go. You finally let out the breath you have been holding and look over at your girl.
Your eyes meet Kate's and she immediately knows something's off. You wave her off but to your misfortune, Caitlin is out there calling Kate daddy on the next play.
Both Kate and your face are bright red when you hear the name escape Caitlin's lips and it causes the whole team to come to a halt.
"What did you just call Kate?" Jada asks.
"Daddy," Caitlin says. The whole team looks at her like she is crazy. "I am just repeating what I heard."
Caitlin then had the audacity to point at you, the bright red tomato that you are, as ever single eye in the gym gravitates towards you.
You hide your face and groan when you feel arms come around you. Kate covers you from the eyes of the team and practice squad.
"So if Kate is daddy...does that make you mother?" Jada asks pinching at your sides.
"I can't believe you didn't tell me, how long have we known each other? How long have I been saying you two would be a cute ass couple? Do I even know you at all?" Caitlin says barreling into you.
"8 months," Kate says pushing your intruder away from you.
"EIGHT MONTHS," Caitlin yells. "And you really think you know someone. I will be taking applications for a new best friend since BOTH of mine have betrayed me."
"CC, it has nothing to do with you," you say a smile finally making its way on you as you push the girl. "We liked the simplicity and your loud mouth couldn't keep a secret to save your life."
"Hey!" Caitlin combats but all of you know it's true.
You are all laughing and there is a shared sense of relief in both you and Kate. You didn't know how the team would react but it is better than either of you would have expected. Not as a lack of their understanding but more so to your fear.
"As long as I get to be in the wedding, I'm good," Caitlin says.
"Yeah - as my best woman," Kate says at the same exact time as you say, "Of course - as my maid of honor."
Your head whips to look at Kate who is already staring you down.
"She can't be your maid of honor if she is my best woman," Kate says like it's a known thing, Caitlin being on her side instead of yours.
"In your dreams Martin, she has been my best friend since high school - there is no question she is standing by my side," you say.
"She could always officiate..." Jada decides to pitch in her two cents.
Kate and your heads turn to her and simultaneously say, "No."
The whole team laughs as you and Kate continue to bicker. The coaches call for practice to continue.
Any time you were standing next to Kate, the two of you could be seen in the same little argument about who gets Caitlin. It even follows you back to your apartment when Caitlin is sick of hearing it.
"Okay that's enough," Caitlin says, rubbing her head. "I will be neither of your best woman or maid of honor."
You and Kate come to your senses and turn to the girl who just made the statement, now arguing with her as to how crazy it would be to not have her in the wedding party.
It didn't stop the arguing, but it did turn the tables so you and Kate were on the same side.
If you were honest, you would give Kate anything she wanted on your big day and she would do the same. At the end of the day, you both knew what was coming and had no problems with it. It was all a part of the plan. The plan the two of you drew up that first week of summer. The plan to spend the rest of your lives arguing about stupid things with each other because neither of you could imagine arguing with anyone else.
The plan of Kate and you against the world.
AN: A short but cute one in my opinion. Let me know what you think! And as always, thank you for the love and support 💛

Bridgerton shade of blue
Benedict Bridgerton x Female Reader
The Viscount is set on finding a wife this season, and you are trying again for your second season. While Anthony is dealing with trials between Edwina and Kate Sharma, you are dealing with trials of your own. Benedict Bridgerton is ever present in your life, but your pursuit to find a husband must come first. Society is ever so exhausting.
{Masterlist}
{Previous Chapter} - {Next Chapter}
Season Two
Chapter Eighteen - New beginnings
A new season has begun. You had watched many families return to the city over the last few days. London has been alive with people, and it was thrilling to see.
You and your mother had stayed in the city all year round. There was no point in going to the country on the account that you had no country house to return to anymore. Having failed to wed last year, your uncle, who had been supporting you and your mother, had pulled back. He saw you as a failure, and you have decided to take that in stride, for this was a new season and a new opportunity to find a husband.
Of course, there was one family in particular you were most excited to see return to London. Your dear friends in the Bridgerton house.
They had arrived already, but you had yet to go and see them. Daphne was going to be the last to arrive. She had told you in one of her letters, so you were going to wait for her to arrive before seeing them. You intend to see them after Eloise's debut.
Eloise Bridgerton is a feisty soul. A young woman who knows her own worth and will not settle for less. You adore her. Perhaps this year you could spend some more time to her, that would certainly be fun.
Your letters with the Bridgerton's were all you had for company since last summer. You had missed them dearly. There was on in particular you missed most, not that you would ever tell him that.
Benedict Bridgerton.
For a little while after the Bridgerton's returned to Aubrey Hall, you had dreamt about Benedict. It had been a very confusing time indeed. You would wake up suddenly feeling rather... hot and bothered. Sometimes, you swore you could hear his voice, but you knee you were dreaming.
You didn't know why you dreamt of him. Eventually, you managed to stop. The mkre time that passed, the less he haunted your dreams, and you could sleep peacefully.
Yes, a confusing time indeed.
You were dressed for the debut ceremony. Violet was hoping you would attend with them, but you stated you would simply meet them inside. You were sure she would be disappointed by this, but you needed more time to prepare yourself to see them again. To see him again...
You and your mother stood together inside. Your arm was looped around hers. The queen was already present, waiting. She was looking for another diamond.
Daphne's match with Simon Bassett last year shook the ton. They had been a perfect match, and you were sure it would not be easy to make such another spectacular pair. However, you knew the queen, and she would not accept anything less than perfect.
The door opens, and people start to trickle in. It isn't long before you see the Bridgerton's enter. The moment Benedict steps into the room, his eyes find yours, and he smiles. That cute crooked little smile.
You smile back at him.
There is no time to catch up and chat while in the presence of the queen, so he will simply have to wait until later to talk to you. Daphne comes up to the other side of you and smiles, greeting you with a quiet "Hello."
One by one, the young ladies making the debut come before the Queen. Each one looks as beautiful as the last. Then Eloise makes her entrance.
She stands frozen in fear as everyone looks at her. You feel sorry for her. You know she doesn't want any of this. You think she's about to move when someone comes up to the queen and whispers something to her. You watch curiously as the queen then stands up.
It seems Lady Whistledown is to the rescue.
She's back. The ton's favourite gossip column. Just like that it's all over. Eloise flees and Violet chases after her daughter.
You look at Daphne who looks disappointed.
You follow everyone out as they leave. Benedict tries to come up beside you, but there's too many people trying to exit for him to talk to you properly.
You stand outside and look at the gossip column your mother managed to get her hands on. Lady Whistledown is, in fact, back for another season.
Dearest gentle reader.
Did you miss me?
It's going to be another eventful season.
It wasn't until back at the Bridgerton house that you and Benedict managed to actually talk to oen another. Between Eloise and Violet falling out a little after the disaster of the debut, and being whisked away by Daphne to join her in her carriage, neither you or Benedict had a moment to talk.
He was eager to speak with you again. You were standing by the window conversing with Francesca, whom you seemed eager to chat with. His sister was a little different from her siblings. Quieter, gentler, more reserved. Yet, you were making her most comfortable. Benedict was glad she had a friend to talk to.
However, he still wanted your attention. He walks over to you both and greets his sister first. Francesca gets the idea and excuses herself. You chuckle softly and look up at Benedict.
"Impatient?"
"Slightly. I've been waiting all day to talk to you."
"All day?" You chuckle. "It's been merely a couple hours."
"Alright. All year." He grins.
"Goodness. You've waited all year? How did you cope?" You tease him.
"Misreably."
You both chuckle softly with each other, and then it goes quiet between you. You take a moment to look at him. He's hard a haircut since you've last seen him. He looks more refined. A gentleman.
You don't think you've changed much.
"You didn't come to Aubrey Hall upon, may I state, all our invites."
You glance away awkwardly. "No."
"Why didn't you come up?" He asks softly. He had missed you dearly, but when you never showed up to the country house, or declined very invite, his heart sunk a little lower each time.
"I've been busy here."
"Busy?"
"With my lessons," you clarify.
"What lessons?"
You sigh softly. "I've been working hard all off-season to make myself... well, more desirable. More perfect."
Benedict was caught off guard by your words. He had never heard something mkre ridiculous than that. "How can you be more perfect when you've already achieved that status?"
Now it was your turn to be caught off guard.
"That's nonsense. You can't possibly have anything to approve. You're already wonderful," he tells you.
"Benedict... Mother and I have no support... my uncle, who was looking after us beforehand, had deserted us. Because I did not manage to get a proposal last season, he has seen me as a failure, and therefore, mother and I must stay in the city with what funds we have. I cannot fail again."
Benedict's expression fell as you spoke. "You have no suspport? What happens when the money runs out?"
"I don't know..."
Benedict was concerned about this news. When Violet walked in, Benedict called over his mother. She approaches with a smile, though you know she has just returned from talking with Eloise, which is certainly n easy feat right now.
Benedict tells his mother what you told him. Violet seems shocked.
"Anthony!"
Before you know it, the eldest brother is approaching. You almost wish you had kept your mouth shut. Violet tells Anthony what Benedict had told her.
Anthony looks furious. "How dare he?"
"It's my own fault," you say.
"No. Not at all, dear." Violet takes your hands in hers. "He is a foolish man to have such expectations of you in a single year."
"Daphne did it..."
"Daphne is a different story," Violet tells you softly. "I have an idea. Anthony, will you be so grateful to take her under your wing and support her this season?"
You shake your head at him, but Anthony is already nodding. "It will be my pleasure. I can put together some funds for your dowry. You shall be in good hands."
"Anthony... I can't accept that!" You look at him with both awe and shock.
"Of course you can." He smiles at you.
Benedict looks at you. "We can help you."
You look at all three of them and feel yourself becoming a little emotional. Did they care about you so much they would go this far to look after you?
"Are you sure?" You ask.
Each of them nod and smile.
"You have no idea how much that would mean to me." You look at Anthony. "Thank you so much."
"You need not thank me. It is the least I can do," he tells you.
"Still, this means a lot. Mother won't have to worry anymore. Really, thank you."
Violet reaches for your hands and takes both your hands in hers. She smiles warmly at you, the way a mother would smile at her child. She is like mother to you. One who spent some time last season trying to push you toward her sons. You have to laugh.
"Stick by me, dear. I shall look after you."
You smile and give her hands a gentle squeeze. "I'd be lost without you."
Benedict watches the two of you interact. He loves how you've sort of inserted yourself into his family. You fit right in. You'd make a fine Bridgerton.
"Now I have three people to pair up," Violet says proudly.
"Three?" You ask. You knew Eloise was one. Yourself makes two.
"Eloise, you, and Anthony!"
You look at Anthony with a mix of curiosity and disbelief. "You? You're looking for a wife this year? Here I was thinking you would remain a bachelor until at least all your family had married first." You giggle.
Anthony rolls his eyes as Violet laughs softly at your teasing. Benedict chuckled, too, not even pretending not to find it funny.
"Yes, very amusing."
"You haven't even heard his conditions for a wife yet," Benedict says, nudging your arm lightly.
"Oh? Do tell."
Anthony lifts his head up proudly, hands behind his back, looking like the Viscount he is. "She must be someone I will not fall in love with. Pretty, sensible, suitable hips for child bearing, and at least half a brain."
You state at him in disbelief. "Anthony."
"What?"
"You better not say that out loud lest you insult every woman in the vicinity. Goodness, how do you expect to find a wife like that? You should marry someone you'll cherish for the rest of your lives. Someone who will make every day worth living for. Someone who compliments you in all the best ways and challenges you to keep you on your toes."
Violet and Benedict both look at you in awe.
Anthony doesn't seem affected by your little speech. "That rules you out as a candidate then?"
"Absolutely."
Anthony nods and walks away. You feel slightly bad, but you couldn't stand there and pretend his words didn't bother you.
"Worry not. You've only dented his ego, my brother will be quite fine," Benedict assures you.
"Good... I just don't see what the issue is with falling in love?"
Violet nods softly. "Anthony is stubborn, but if there is one thing I am certain of, all my children will marry for love."
You smile at her. "And me?"
"Of course you!" She smiles brightly.
You feel so much better after hearing that. Without the stress of having to marry because money was involved, you could now take your time to find someone to connect with. Someone to fill in love with.
You were ready.

Playing "4 Big Guys" around the slashers
Shitpost idea has been made, so here XD
This will include: Michael Myers {OG & RZ}, Brahms Heelshire, Jason Voorhees, Billy Lenz, Freddy Krueger, Stu Macher, Billy Loomis, Thomas Hewitt, Bubba Sawyer, Harry Warden, Tiffany Valentine
Feel free to request any shitpost writing prompt ideas you can think of in my asks, I love silly non-serious ideas XD
Given the music is VERY adult related, this is 18+ ONLY
OG Michael Myers
Ain't gonna lie, the second you play that song he's probably staring at you instantly. Anger? Disappointment? Cursing your entire family and possible future children? Who knows! It's Michael-Fucking-Myers baby!!!
He's not used to anything sexual overall so hearing a song openly sing about gay sex, and in such a detailed way, would worry him. Not for the singer, no- more on your taste in music.
And don't even get me started on when he hears about shit being involved. The second he hears that being mentioned he's turning off the music entirely, patting your head, and dragging you away so you'll listen to something he likes instead to cleanse that weird mind of yours. Like... Kate Bush or something.
He'd like Kate Bush right? He looks like a Kate Bush enjoyer.
RZ Michael Myers
Judging you, hard. Though he ain't saying it. His aura is practically smellable he's judging you so hard.
Does he like it? No. It's loud, obnoxious, and profound filled. Ignoring the obvious "gay sex and other weirdness" part, the volume of the music reminds him of his childhood.
He's smashing the device the music is coming from. He doesn't care if it's your MP3 all the way to a damn TV or Alexa, he's smashing that shit to pieces if it means he doesn't need to hear it anymore.
What would he put on instead? Calming ambient noises that play for hours on end on YouTube. It's the exact opposite of whatever hellscape you just played. It's better.
Brahms Heelshire
Well first of all it ain't classical, so that's a point on the "I Hate This" list.
Second it's not a piano.
Third it's literally "4 Big Guys"-
Not only is this poor man confused about everything the singer is saying, I highly doubt his parents explained LGBTQ+ to him, he's also hating how loud it is.
"Who puts things up their ass?" - Brahms Heelshire 2024
You turn off the music yourself when he practically begs you to.
You're probably tryna hold in your laughter while he's sitting on the floor trying to figure out what the fuck he just heard.
Jason Voorhees
Is there a bigger word for "traumatized"? Because that man earns it.
You're lucky af, if his mom was live she'd hit you with a crowbar so fast- Not kill you tho, she wouldn't dare hurt her boy.
But yeah, he's not saying anything, nor moving. Bro's too traumatized. LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE-
You better give him his teddy he fucking deserves it TmT
Laughing his ass off until the shit is mentioned, even this horny gremlin has his limits.
Can you tell I hate shit kinks? XD
He'd want an apology for you blasting that song so far to that section. But no music! He hates Christmas songs, they're so repetitive and they all sound the same anyway.
Bake him a cake, the more unique the better. His favourite so far is red velvet with cream cheese frosting!
Then when he's finished eating you're getting railed by him not longer after, man's not changed. Not now, not ever.
Freddy Krueger
You can play this entire song with this man on REPEAT and he'd be fine with it.
I'd be surprised if he didn't given his track record and.... slicing open his skin to reveal green "blood" and maggots crawling out.
Would he laugh the first time? ABSOLUTELY!
Would he jokingly sing along, probably.
But he would TOTALLY play this song when going after his victims sometimes. Imagine dying and the last thing you hear is:
"4 BIG GUYS AND THEY GRAB ON MY THIGHS-"
Stu Macher & Billy Loomis
Billy is concerned for your wellbeing. Especially when you start singing it at full force with Stu joining in not long after.
Yeah Stu is enjoying this to the max!
Finds it hilarious, who the fuck wouldn't when you've got humour more broken than Brahms' doll-
But seeing you enjoying yourself to this.... absurdity, at least makes Billy calm down from worry. Now he's just concerned your taste in music may infiltrate your taste in movies.
I doubt the man's used to hearing music.... imagine this being his first time hearing it-
OMG he'd probably think this is normal for music.
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE??? XD
If it's not his first time hearing music though? No concern, laughter, nothing. He's neutral, given that this is something that makes you a little chaotic gremlin.
He's happy seeing you comfortable enough around to be a "gremlin" as you call it.
Bubba Sawyer
Don't traumatize him more than he's been already!!
Sure he doesn't realise it, or the fact he's used to it, but the poor guy's already traumatized-
Though he's probably more confused in the whole scheme of things. I mean, he knows what sex is. But just the surface of it.
So he's probably just learnt way too much in such a short period of time.
Oh lord what have you done-
Harry Warden
Okay first of all, why is there no GIF of this man? WTF????
Second; man's from the mines, man's old fashioned, you've probably just thrown way too much modern shit in his face way too quickly that he's just staring at you, the music video, and then the floor.
Poor miner is so confused, especially when the "cum starts spraying".
Oh god he'll probably think it's like dust from the mines spraying everywhere.
Fucking hell that's a vision-
Tiffany Valentine
Finds it amusing? Yes.
Judging? Not as much as you'd expect.
Girl's been through a wild ride, hearing you blast out "4 Big Guys" from your phone wouldn't be the most shocking thing in the world.
Hell. she'd probably encourage you to start singing along to it XD
Oh she's gonna use that song to torture someone with it. She doesn't know how yet, but she's got the idea in her head now

i have to put a trigger warning to this request, im sorry if it triggers something, it was not my intention, lots of love.
heyy, may I request something like a reader who has depression and is struggling in being clean and just want to relapse in old bad habits of self harm but doesn't say anything to Kate because she doesn't want to disappoint her. but in the end Kate finds out anyway because she knows the reader like the palm of her hand and yeah, free choice for the ending!!
when it rains [K.Bishop]
pairing: kate bishop x reader
summary: when the threat of relapsing rears its head, kate does her best to support you...even when you try to push her away.
warnings: depressive episode; mentions of self-harm/relapsing; references to anxiety/struggles with spiraling thoughts; hurt/comfort + hopeful/happy ending; kate being nervous but supportive
wordcount: 1.8k
a/n: i was working on the next part of vampire!kate when i got hit with a random burst of inspiration to write this request. i wrote it pretty much in one sitting so forgive me for the messiness. this is a pretty heavy topic so read at your risk and keep the warnings in mind! there aren't any super explicit descriptions of things but proceed with caution if you find this topic triggering. thank you for the request and for your patience, sorry it took so long, hope you enjoy <3
* * * * * * *
In hindsight, the signs that something was wrong were obvious.
You should have picked up on them immediately but you were too distracted by the world around you to notice what was going on inside your inner world. Realistically, there were a hundred reasons for your slip of mind and yet, the only thing you could blame was yourself.
You and your lack of focus.
You and your constant need for external factors to take away feelings you should be capable of working through on your own.
The list of habits to blame for the sudden breakdown of your mental fortitude was shockingly long, in your opinion.
You probably should have told Kate about your increasingly anxious and self-deprecating thoughts but you foolishly believed you could handle it on your own.
Plus, she was busy. Too busy to get caught up in issues she ultimately didn’t care about.
At least, that’s what you told yourself…which just made your thoughts worse.
A part of you knew the archer cared, of course she cared, she had spent the first month since you moved in with her bringing you random gifts after every night of crime fighting. It bordered on ridiculous, especially since there were only so many places to put flower vases, but it showed just how much your girlfriend cared for you. How much she thought of you.
How much she worried for you whether she was next to you or a whole city away.
It’s a thought that usually reassures you. One that reminds you of the love you have for each other.
The more your thoughts turned sour, though, the more that love turned into a weapon. It forced you to retreat, to pull away from the archer while pretending like the distance you were putting between you wasn’t killing you inside.
But being alone only made everything worse. And suddenly, the fear of disappointing Kate suffocated you every waking hour.
It didn’t make sense and yet here you are, home alone, hiding in the bathroom, and gripping the sink so hard that your knuckles had turned white a while ago. At least the uncomfortable feeling in your hands had kept you from doing something you really, really, shouldn’t do.
You stare at your reflection in the mirror, frowning at the face that stares back at you. It’s hard to see anything besides the dark bags under your eyes and the exhaustion that’s so clear in every single one of your features.
A sigh leaves your lips as your mind drifts to the razors in the sink cabinet. Your hand is already so close to the cabinet door and the urge to do something you won’t be able to take back rises to the forefront of your mind.
No amount of deep breaths are able to ground you enough for your thoughts to change. Your hand moves a few inches when you suddenly hear the front door slam shut. Some of Kate’s bad habits were also your best allies in moments like this.
You move faster than you can even comprehend, turning the lock on the door and shuffling as far away from the door as you possibly can. You sit on the ground right as footsteps near the bathroom door.
“y/n?”
Her voice startles you despite how soft it sounds. There’s nothing but affection in her tone and yet alarm bells ring in your mind. You almost suffocate under the overwhelming need to run away, to hide, to disappear.
Your intentions must be obvious despite your silence since she knocks on the door once more. There’s an urgency to her movements that you can’t quite explain. It’s almost like she’s afraid of you slipping away.
The mere thought makes guilt rise up like bile in your throat.
“Love?” She tries once more, her voice uncharacteristically calm. “Can you please open the door?”
You want to do it, you really do, but your whole body feels heavier than ever. No amount of effort or inner screaming gets your limbs to move even though all you really want right now is the archer standing patiently on the other side of the door.
You really don't deserve her.
The door slams open at the exact second your thoughts grow dark once more.
The sound causes you to jump, your arms instinctively wrapping around your knees and bringing them further against your chest. Almost as if it’ll truly make you disappear so you won’t have to face the disappointment you know will be hiding in the depths of Kate’s concerned eyes.
“Sorry, I got too impatient to pick the lock,” she says, awkwardly scratching the back of her neck.
You almost want to laugh. Only Kate could be so awkwardly charming at a time like this. Despite her charming act, it’s obvious she’s nervous and more than a little out of her depth. You’d feel bad about it if you weren’t in the same boat as her.
“Um…” Your eyes lift up from your knees to her face, silently watching while she struggles to put her thoughts into words. “Is it okay if I sit next to you?”
The answer is obvious to you and yet you still hesitate. Not because you don’t want her around but because you’re afraid of how you’ll act. Of the weird mix of frustration and desperation that make up your inner world right now.
“Yeah,” you mumble.
Kate wastes no time in coming closer to you. A cynical part of you hates the way she looks at you like you’re the most fragile thing in the world. You know it’s unfair, especially since she’s simply concerned for your well-being, but you can’t change your thoughts. You’ve already spent most of the day trying and failing miserably.
True to her word, Kate simply sits next to you, her side barely brushing up against you. It’s enough of a reminder that she’s physically with you without her running the risk of overwhelming you with more contact than you’re ready for.
You know her just as well as she knows you, though, and your eyes zero in on her fidgeting hands. It’s almost like you can see the struggle in her motions. The aching need to reach out and touch you, to make sure you’re truly safe.
Ultimately, she doesn’t move. And neither do you.
For the first time in a long time, Kate doesn’t rush. She doesn’t question things or make one of her badly-timed but well-intentioned jokes.
She just…sits there.
Waiting.
Silently watching over you in a wordless expression of her support and love for you.
It’s more beautifully emotional than you were prepared for and you’re almost not sure what to do.
Until, eventually, you find some sense of calm. You grasp onto it quicker than your mind can even handle and finally…you’re able to move again.
It’s a subtle, almost slow, movement but Kate picks up on it pretty much instantly. You extend your arm out toward her and she gently holds the back of your hand while lifting the sleeve of your hoodie up. The audible sigh of relief she lets out makes your heart clench.
She doesn’t question you in any way but you decide to speak up. Maybe a part of you needs to hear the words out loud too.
“My other arm is clean too,” you mumble. “I…I’m still clean.”
She brings your arm up until she’s able to press soft kisses all over the inside of your wrist. “What you are is strong.”
You can’t help but scoff. The knowledge that she means well does little to soothe the disdain that’s made a home in your stomach. “That’s not true.”
The tone your voice carries startles her enough for her to change her approach. It’s not one she particularly wants to employ but she figures it’s better than arguing.
“Of course it’s true,” she responds. “I know you’ve been struggling all week, y/n. Surviving that takes more than just luck.”
Her words leave no room for arguing so all you can do is huff in response. Your obvious frustration does little to deter her and she continues to caress your wrist. You don’t miss the way she lingers over the few faded scars that remain etched into your skin.
The affection soothes you somewhat which only brings back the thoughts that had sent you down this spiral in the first place.
“I want to do more than just survive,” you whisper. “I want to live, Kate. Without feeling so…helpless all the time.”
“Babe…” She sighs.
Your body tenses up as you prepare yourself for the disappointment that is sure to follow.
Who are you to complain? The only thing standing in your way is yourself and yet you have the nerve to act like it’s the end of the world. It’s no one’s fault but your own that you can’t function like a normal person.
You expect her to verbalize your own thoughts, to prove that all your doubts were correct, that you deserve to feel this way after all. It’s an extremely unrealistic expectation considering who Kate is but you can’t stop yourself from wanting to be proven right.
To be given a reason for wanting to disappear.
There’s nothing the archer loves more than proving you wrong, though.
“y/n, surviving is a part of living,” she says, her voice soft yet more serious than you’re used to hearing her. “I know it probably doesn’t feel like that right now but pushing through is the first step to living. You just have to take it step by step…and you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here for you, if and when you want me.”
Kate’s never been known for being particularly good at saying the right thing at the right time but today…her words seem to ease some of the weight you’ve been carrying lately. Maybe it’s not much but it’s certainly a start.
“I do want you here,” you find yourself saying. “I just…I don’t know why it feels easier to push you away.”
“Because you’re scared, darling. You don’t want me to leave so you walk away first. I do the same thing, y’know?”
You can’t help but scoff. If there’s one thing Kate doesn’t know how to do is walk away when she really should. It would be infuriating if it didn’t work out in her favor most times. Hence how she ended up as Hawkeye in the first place. “Literally when have you done that?”
“Before I met you.” She playfully bumps your shoulder with her own. “It wasn’t exactly my charm that made me a heartbreaker.”
You chuckle despite yourself. “Please, Kate, you’ve always been too oblivious to be a heartbreaker on purpose.”
“Okay, ouch. I am not oblivious.”
Instead of arguing with your stubborn girlfriend, you simply lean closer to her and rest your head on her shoulder. Her arm instantly wraps itself around you to pull you even closer.
The physical comfort helps to ground you and little by little, your bad thoughts stop looking so overwhelming. It’s a small step but it’s a step forward and with Kate by your side, the path to recovery doesn’t seem so bad.

Dumb Ref
Kate Martin x Reader (I write soccer fics... don't come at me if it sucks please🙏)
--------------------
"REF!" you yelled, tossing your hands up from your spot on the ground. "ARE YOU GONNA CALL THE FOUL OR NAH?"
The ref turned her head back in annoyance as play continued on. "Just because you keep falling over doesn't mean it's a foul, Y/L/N!"
A growl rumbled in the back of your throat. You shot to your feet, smacking the ball away as it left the LSU player's hand. "RAAHHH!"
You chucked the ball to Caitlin who made an easy layup, rolling your eyes at the way the Iowa bench was unsuccessfully trying to stifle their laughter.
As you ran back, the player you were defending mistakenly stuck out her foot ever-so-slightly, and, to your aggravation, you tripped.
"REEEEEF!" you yelled, practically shattering everyone's eardrums to the point all the courtside microphones picked it up. "SHE FLIPPIN' TRIPPED ME! CALL THE FOUL, GODDAMNIT!"
The ref blew her whistle, glaring at you before touching her right hand to her right shoulder and letting her arm fall to her side.
Your jaw dropped as you scrambled to your feet. "HOW IS THAT A FLOP?! ARE YOU DUMB?"
You were tackled to the floor before you could even take a step. "SYDNEY! GET OFFA ME YOU FU—"
A hand was slapped over your mouth.
"Don't!" Kate scolded, your girlfriend's hand remaining strong. "Don't say it."
Sydney only let you up once you stopped squirming, a look of utter annoyance on your face. "I hate all of you. Literally every single one of you."
As play started up again, you became more aggressive, throwing more shoulder into it than you had earlier on in the game, getting more steals, blocking more shots. And of course, that was when the ref started paying attention.
You had slightly knocked Angel Reese with your shoulder, successfully stealing the ball after a double team with Caitlin, when the ref had decided she didn't like that and blown the whistle.
You backflipped, chucking the ball to Narnia, fists clenched as you stalked over to the dumb woman wearing black and white stripes. "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING M— YOU CAN'T EJECT ME FOR THAT YOU BI—" you stopped short when you spotted Kate giving you the I'm-not-mad,-just-disappointed girlfriend look. "YOU BIIIIII... you biii... YOU BIRD! THIS IS ONLY MY FOURTH PERSONAL! LEARN TO COUNT!"
You could hear Coach Bluder facepalm behind you.
"No," the ref scoffed. "One on Reese in the first quarter, one on Johnson in the second, and two on Poa and another one on Reese this quarter."
"Yeah! That's four!" You snapped, counting on your fingers. "Reese, Johnson, Poa, Ree—"
You stopped short. "Reese, Reese, Johnson, Poa, Poa—wait—"
Kate held in a laugh, grabbing you by the shoulders and pushing you gently off the court since you were still busy trying to count. "Come on, baby, off you go."
You blinked rapidly as Coach Bluder took Kate's place, guiding you to the bench with an amused but equally unamused sigh. "Sit down, Y/N."
As soon as she returned to her previous spot on the sidelines, you snapped out of it. "Dumb ref!"
Her head snapped back like a slingshot. "What did you say?"
You jumped to your feet, ready to deck her, only for Molly to deck you, lightly but effectively kicking you in the back of the knee with her foot. You practically crumpled, nearly hitting your head on the back of your seat had it not been for one of your other teammates sticking their hand out. "Ow!"
"Sit your ass down," Molly scolded. "Stop antagonizing her!"
"She's antagonizing me!" You whined, holding the back of your knee as you hauled yourself up onto your chair. "She's the one being a—"
"HEY!" Kate shouted from half court, hands in her hips as LSU prepared to dribble down the court. "NOT ANOTHER WORD, MISSY, OR YOU CAN COOK YOUR OWN DINNER FOR THE NEXT WEEK!"
You jolted, sitting up ramrod straight, frantically shaking your head at the threat.
Kylie snorted. "Really? That's all it took for you to shut up? Your girlfriend yelling at you?"
You scowled, but said nothing.
"You're so whipped."
"I am not whipped!" You screeched, shoving her off her seat before standing on yours and preparing to perform an elbow drop.
"HEY! STOP THAT!" Kate's voice was so commanding that everybody on the court froze momentarily. "KYLIE! Y/N! BEHAVE!"
You both scrambled to return to your seats, staring straight ahead with matching looks of terror on your faces.
Kate shook her head as everyone on the court snapped back into action. "LITERAL CHILDREN!"
You stuck out your tongue.
"SEE?"
I should stick to soccer fics

What's your take on the whole Max and Chloe break up in Double Exposure?
Also are you going to play it? I enjoyed your analysis of True Colors and Before the Storm.
Thank you! And oh boy...
My friends and I have actually been talking about this for the past few days, and maybe it's just my specific friend group, but ... we're fine with it? 😅
None of us sacrificed Arcadia Bay for Chloe. I'd say half of my friends hate her and half of them love her, but even my friends who love/relate to her couldn't justify it to themselves. One girl from our group, who dyed her hair blue after playing the game and absolutely worshipped Chloe, still chose Arcadia Bay. So from that standpoint, none of us are really hurting from Deck Nine's decision.
As for the people who are hurting, I'm sorry. Truly. I'm sorry you're disappointed. I understand how it feels and it sucks, especially when you chose Chloe despite the consequences. That was your decision and you had the right to make it. You had the right to enjoy it. Narratively, though ... it does makes sense. At least in my eyes. The only aspect that doesn't is Chloe ending up with Victoria, which I've heard happens? But I've searched high and low and that doesn't seem to be confirmed anywhere. There's a message where Victoria and Chloe go to a concert together, but that doesn't mean they're a couple, so I think this is just a stretch from angry players.
Other than that, I don't find Deck Nine's thought process all that outrageous. Their reason for breaking up is something I considered when it came time to choose between Chloe and the town. Chloe openly asks you to sacrifice her, saying that her mom and everyone else in Arcadia Bay deserves better—and I agree. Joyce, David, Warren, Kate, Alyssa, Stella, Dana, Daniel, Ms. Grant, Samuel the custodian, they all deserve to live. Even the characters we don't like, like Taylor and Victoria, at least deserve a chance. They're teenagers.
If you sacrifice Arcadia Bay, the animation when Max and Chloe drive through the demolished town clearly shows an air of regret on Max's face. She refused Chloe's first and only selfless demand and let thousands die for her; animals, men, women, and children. I personally find it difficult to believe that their relationship could work after that. Even the comics explore this concept, with Max leaving Chloe for a while because she can't handle the guilt.
The first Life is Strange is essentially a game about a girl who can't stop running from the past and a girl who can't let go of it. Given what Max and Chloe go through together, and considering how different they are as individuals, it's perfectly reasonable to assume that, as they grow and mature into adults, they wouldn't be able to salvage a slowly breaking relationship. Chloe would forever see the girl that killed thousands—including her own mother—for her, while Max would see a constant reminder of all the people she killed. It's a very realistic outcome for Pricefield, if we're being honest. And according to the letters, Chloe wanted to move on, but Max couldn't, while Max felt like Chloe was being a hypocrite. It's raw and complex and entirely believable.
Not to mention the first game never promises that Max and Chloe become a couple. You can sacrifice Arcadia Bay without romancing Chloe. There's two variants, couples or besties. So how on earth was Deck Nine going to cater to everyone, especially when there's a timeline where Chloe is dead? It would be impossible without making two drastically different games. Their only option was to remove Chloe from the plot entirely (alienating her fans) or miraculously revive her, in which case she would become the main focus of the story instead of Sifa, and it would negate the majority of people's decision from the first game. Nearly 60% of players sacrificed Chloe across the board, so I can understand why Deck Nine gave that outcome precedence. But it was a lose/lose situation from the start, so perhaps the best argument one can make is that they shouldn't have made a new game at all.
NOTE: I just found out that in the comics, Victoria and Chloe actually become good friends and Victoria matures a ton, so I dunno. Maybe the two of them getting together makes sense after all. 🤷♀️ That said, the comics aren't canon to the games and, in my opinion (based on what I've researched), they seem like a fanfic written to try and justify the sacrifice of thousands of innocent people, so I'm pretty indifferent to them.
Of course, there is another detail I've rarely seen people broach when discussing this drama: we don't really know anything yet. Above all, I think we need to remember that the game isn't finished. We've only seen two episodes. We have no idea where the narrative is going. For all we know, Max and Chloe might get back together by the end. Or even more likely, this is an alternate timeline Max. Much like the comics, this is just one of infinite possibilities. I think people need to calm down and hold their criticisms until we see the final product.

RIGHT HERE — JOHN MARINO
summary: in which y/n can’t let go of her situationship
warnings: NSFW!!! fingering, p in v (unprotected), substance use (weed), praise, sir kink

“oh c'mon y/n, you're not seriously calling him, are you?” Kate's voice drifts over the edm song blasting from the speakers of the Hoboken club, her face painted in disappointment.
“he's not good for you.” Taylor sing-songs, attempting to pry the phone out of my hand, but i keep a firm grip on the electronic.
“how do you know that?” i rebut. “he makes me feel good.”
“yeah, for like an hour.” Kate rolls her eyes, finally wrestling the iphone from my hold, clicking the red button to end the call before it can even connect. “then we have to pick up the pieces after he inevitably leaves you alone again.”
she holds the device out of my reach, swatting my hands away with her other hand as i reach for it.
“y/n, we love you. we just don't wanna see you hurt.” Taylor coos, a hand playing with the ends of my hair. her doe-like eyes soften like her tone.
“we came out tonight for you to find someone else.” Kate reminds me, her stern voice a stark contrast to Taylor's. she glances down at the phone screen, leveling me with a stare before she hands it back to me. “two calls? really? get a grip, y/n, please. if he didn't answer the first time, then he doesn't want you tonight.”
“i don't want someone else. if i find someone else, then i have to teach them what i like.” i huff. “John knows my body and he knows how to please me. and if you aren't gonna support me in my... situation... with him, then i don't wanna hear anything about it.”
“we just want the best for you, babes.” Taylor chimes, clearly trying to de-escalate the situation.
“i'm going home.” i announce, stuffing my phone in my clutch and standing from the bar seat.
“going home? or getting in his bed?” Kate chuckles, sipping her drink.
“fuck off.” i scoff, walking away and leaving my so-called friends in the club.
it doesn't take me long to walk the fifteen minutes from the club to my apartment, one of the main reasons i had suggested that club tonight; but by the time i get up to my place, my feet are killing me.
ripping the high heels from my feet, i let my bare soles relax against the wooden flooring, heaving out a sigh of relief as i throw the shoes to the side.
i slump onto my sofa, opening my clutch and retrieving my phone. i just stare at it for a few moments, wondering if Kate is right. is three calls in a night too much?
it doesn't take long for my mind to wander, thoughts of the ice hockey defenseman in between my thighs, flashbacks to the two of us tangled between my sheets, his fingers working wonders against my heat as his lips attach to my neck. thats all it takes for me to snap, unlocking the device and clicking on his contact.
one call. i'll give him one more call. if he doesn't answer, then i'll just leave it for the night; try to get myself off or suck it up and go to bed frustratedly horny.
i listen silently as the phone rings with the outgoing call. once. twice. three times, before it connects.
“hey, pretty girl. three calls in a night.” his voice is raspy and slow. i can hear the faint voices of Jack and Dawson in the background of the other line, and just from those clues, i know what he's up to at the moment.
“please.” i can't hold back the whimper at the sound of him, clenching my thighs together at his teasing chuckle. “i need you, Johnny.”
“i'll be right there.” he replies. i can hear shuffling on the other end, the sound of keys jingling, and i assume he's stuffing them in his pocket.
“hey, Johnny?” i bite my lip, waiting for his voice again.
“yeah, pretty girl?”
“bring a blunt.” i tell him. he huffs out a raspy laugh, agreeing before he ends the call.
it's twenty minutes later that the sound of a knock echoes throughout my apartment and i get giddy, jumping up from the sofa and fast-walking to the door. i take a second to compose myself before i open it, John standing on the other side with a smirk.
“hey, baby.” he steps into the apartment, pressing a kiss to my cheek. “so which one are we doing first?”
“smoke.” i say, gesturing for him to follow me while he pulls a ziploc baggie out of his pocket, holding two blunts.
“you can start while i get changed.” i inform him, stepping into my bedroom with him hot on my trail. i look back to see him nod, snatching a lighter from the top of my dresser as i dig in my drawer for something sexy but comfortable.
i leave him sitting on my bed, the rolled object between his fingers, smoke drifting into the air from his lips. stepping into the bathroom, i get changed quickly, out of the itchy sparkly club dress and into a red satin slip nightdress.
opening the bathroom door, i notice the atmosphere has changed, the ceiling light off in exchange for my LED lights, a blue glow settling over the room.
John's eyes watch me hungrily, locked on the curves of my waist as i stalk towards the bed, kneeling onto the mattress and bending forward to steal the blunt from his lips, sticking it between mine. his gaze darts between my lips and my cleavage before settling on my eyes.
i crawl up the bed, sitting down sideways beside him, my legs thrown over his.
we're silent for a while, at some point telling alexa to play our playlist. we just enjoy the music, passing the drug back and forth a few times.
“my friends think you're bad for me.” i tell him through a choked laugh. he smirks, his hand rubbing up and down my bare thigh, causing me to clench them together, which results in a knowing look from John.
“baby, take a look around.” he remarks. “i don't give a fuck about your friends, or what they think. i'm the one right here.”
his response makes a pit settle deep within my stomach, a mixture of want and need.
i take a hit, hooking a finger under his chin to bring his face to mine, before letting the smoke drift from my lips to his.
pulling back, lust clouds his eyes and i let him take the substance from my grasp, settling back on my hands as he sets the small bit of leftover blunt on my nightstand. he turns back towards me, knocking my legs off of his and maneuvering to hover over my body.
he dips his head into my neck, pressing sloppy kisses against my racing pulse, his hand sliding up my waist and over my stomach before clutching at my breast, his thumb ghosting over the fabric that covers my pierced nipple. his touch elicits a moan to escape my lips, my hips bucking up to graze his.
“shhh,” he hushes me, pulling back from my neck to look into my bloodshot eyes. “be a good girl for me.”
his hand leaves my breasts to push my hips down, holding them in place against the bed. his lips return to my skin, trailing kisses up my jawline before he finally reaches my lips. the kiss is sloppy and slow, teeth clattering and tongues exploring. he sucks at my bottom lip, tugging it between his teeth.
his hand explores my body once more, this time sliding down my thigh before gliding back up, pulling my dress up with his touch. his fingertips trail up my inner thigh, causing a shiver to wrack my body, a whimper bubbling up my throat.
he reaches his destination, pulling my panties to the side and swiping two fingers through my soaking core. my hips buck up again at his touch, making him let out a dark chuckle.
“so wet for me.” he tuts.
“yes, sir.” i moan as his fingers brush over my clit. “just for you.”
“yeah?” he urges on, pulling my panties down my legs, throwing them off to the side, landing in a heap on my bedroom floor.
he brushes his touch over my heat again, drawing out another moan from me.
“please.” i whine.
“what do you want, baby?” he questions, scanning my face. “you want my fingers, hm?”
my head bounces up and down, nodding fastly.
“can you say it for me? use your words, baby. tell me to fuck you with my fingers.”
“please, fuck me with your fingers, sir.” i whine.
John seems to deem it enough begging, because he slips a single digit into me, causing a mix of a moan and a sigh to drop from my swollen lips. my eyes screw shut in pleasure, my jaw going slack.
he crooks his finger inside me, my hips grinding down onto his hand.
“more.” i plead, my hands fisting the sheets beneath me. he adds a second finger, dragging them lazily inside of me, his thumb now providing a pressure point to my clit.
“open your eyes, pretty girl. look at me.” my eyes flutter open at his command, locking with his. he holds that eye contact as his fingers pump into me.
the crude sounds of his fingers gliding in and out of my wetness fills the room, mingling with my moans and calls of his name. ready for something more, i grip his shirt, pulling on it and bringing his lips down to mine, engaging him in a deep kiss.
“please, John.” i mutter, my lips brushing against his. “i want your cock.”
his fingers scissor and curl in a 'come-hither' motion a few more times, the knot in my stomach growing, before he removes them, leaving me empty.
he brings his hand up to my face, his wet fingertips tapping against my bottom lip, and i open my mouth, letting him press his fingers on my tongue. the taste of me settles on my tastebuds and i suck around his digits, letting my tongue lap at them.
John lets out a groan at the feeling and the sight of me beneath him. he pulls away, his fingers leaving my mouth with a pop. standing from the bed, he pulls his shirt over his head while i scoot to the edge of the bed, fumbling with his belt.
he chuckles as i get frustrated when i can't undo it, knocking my hands away to remove it himself. pulling his pants and boxers down, his dick slaps against his lower stomach as he kicks them off.
my mouth waters at the sight, my pussy clenching at nothing but the phantom feeling of him filling me up, the remembrance enough to make my breathing speed up.
he bypasses me, climbing back onto the mattress and settling in the middle, slumped against the headboard.
“c'mere.” he insists, pulling me towards him. his hands grip my hips as he guides me to straddle him, holding my nightdress up just enough to put my pussy on display. “ride me like a good girl.”
i grasp his length in one hand, a grunt passing his lips at the feeling of my hand wrapped around him. my other grasps his shoulder as leverage to keep me up. sliding his dick through my folds, my back arches and i let out a shaky breath, mixing with his own groan at the feeling.
his right hand leaves my hip to slap my ass.
“don't be a tease, baby.” he warns. “sink this cock into your pretty pussy.”
at his order, i line him up with my entrance, lowering myself down slowly. my head drops back in content, gnawing at my bottom lip and letting out a muffled cry of pleasure.
his hand cups my cheek, pulling my face back to look at him. his thumb pulls my bottom lip from my teeth.
“let me hear those pretty sounds. let me know how good i make you feel.” he grunts out, his voice tight.
“yes, sir.” i comply, letting my moans leave my lips freely as i grind down on him, bouncing on his cock, leaning forward towards him in order to achieve a new angle.
he buries his face in my neck, leaving open mouthed kisses and suckling on the spot he knows makes me squirm. his hands slide up my hips and waist, pulling at the satin and tugging the top of my nightdress down to free my tits. he grips them in his hands, his thumbs circling my perked nipples, before he pinches them, making me whimper.
he pinches and prods at the jewelry thats runs through my nipples, and i pick up my pace, grinding down harder and bouncing faster. he uses his hands on my chest to push me up, leaning forward to bring my left nipple into his mouth, sucking on it and letting his teeth graze it. my back arches, a shiver running down my spine at the feeling.
“yes!” i call out, my hips stuttering as the knot grows in my gut once more. he picks up on my tell, taking this time to switch his mouth to my right breast as he thrusts up into me.
his tongue swirls my nipple as he sucks, and i clench around him. his hand leaves my breast to sneak in between us, using his middle finger to circle my bundle of nerves. he continues to thrust up shallowly as i bounce on him, and i can feel my climax quickly approaching.
his lips leave my breast and he looks back at my face, my eyes rolling back in my head at the intense pleasure i'm overcome with.
“look at you, taking me so well.” he coos. “such a good girl, aren't you?”
“yes.” i nod quickly, my hand rising to grip my breast in attempt to ground myself from the euphoria that's clouds my mind.
“bouncing on my dick like my own personal puck bunny.” he snickers. my other hand falls to his abdomen, and i can feel his abs tighten at the touch.
“yours.” i mutter out through the pleasure, his finger speeding up on my clit. “all yours.”
“who's pussy is this?” he uses his free hand to grab at my face, forcing me to look at him.
“yours.” i repeat.
“that's right.” he mutters. “this pussy belongs to me. only i can make you feel this good, isn't that right?”
“yes, sir.” i nod again, my eyes squeezing shut as i feel myself teetering on the edge, my movement stuttering again as i shudder.
he pulls me forward, his lips ghosting the shell of my ear as he whisipers, lust dripping from his voice.
“come for me.”
i let go at his words, my breath halting as my orgasm washes over me. my vision goes pitch black, stars dancing through it as he bucks his hips up, his finger never stopping on my clit as he fucks me through my release.
i open my eyes when i come back down to earth, panting to bring oxygen back into my lungs. but John is ruthless, flipping us over so that he hovers over me.
he plunges back into me, pushing his hand against my stomach, feeling himself deep within me. he thrusts fast and hard, grinding himself against my overstimulated clit.
i whimper, not sure if i can take any more, but he doesn't stop.
“one more.” he assures me. “you'll be fine.”
my fingers grip at his back, surely leaving red scratches down it as i attempt to pull him closer. one of my hands slides down to settle on his ass, bucking my hips up to meet his.
“that's it. you can do it.” he smirks, his words barely audible over the sound of our skin clapping against each other. my moans and whimpers echo throughout the bedroom, tears pricking at my eyes from the amount of pleasure coursing through me.
“John.” i breath, the sounds of his grunts like music to my ears.
“yeah, baby.” he dips down to press a kiss to my lips. “i'm right here.”
i can feel his hips stutter, his thrusts getting sloppier as he gets closer and closer to his finish, and my own stomach gets tight as i get close to mine.
“come inside me.” i whisper against his lips. “fill me up.”
his pace falters at my words and he leans his forehead against mine. his thumb drops down to my clit, rubbing fast circles against it and my face goes red as i clench around him, reaching my second climax. he lazily pumps in and out a few more times before his lips part and a moan drops from them as he reaches his own orgasm.
he falls on top of me, both of us panting to catch our breath, his bare chest againt my exposed breasts. his weight helps ground me back to the moment, and it's only a minute later that he rolls off of me.
he lies beside me on his side, his fingers dancing across the red satin that covers my abdomen for a moment before he stands.
“i'll be right back, baby.” he doesn't bother getting dressed, walking into the bathroom to clean himself up, prior to returning with a washcloth, soaked with warm water.
he kneels on the end of the bed, prying my still shaking legs apart and cleaning me up with the towel, my hips bucking slightly at the feeling. he laughs at my movement, before throwing the washcloth into the hamper in the corner of my room.
pulling his boxers back on, he stalks out of the room, disappearing for a few minutes. he returns with a bottle of water and a granola bar, handing me both. once i have the items in my grasp, he pulls the top of my nightdress back up to cover my boobs.
as he climbs back into the bed, i scoot over so that i'm no longer in the middle of the mattress, allowing him his own side.
he waits for me to take a few sips of the water before he sets it on the nightstand for me. laying down on his back, he pulls me towards him and pulls my leg to rest over his abdomen.
we're silent as i eat the granola bar, his hand rubbing aimlessly up and down my thigh. i hand him the wrapper when i'm done and he sets it beside the water bottle before his hand returns to my thigh.
“John?” i whisper, scared to break the peace, and afraid of his reaction to my next words. he hums in interest, looking down to meet my eyes. “i don't wanna fuck around anymore.”
his brows thread together in confusion, no doubt thinking this was an odd time for me to call off our situationship after being so needy with him just moments ago.
“what do you mean?” he questions, his tone thoroughly confused.
“i mean, i want more.” i admit. “i need more. and if you don't want that too, then that's fine. but i need you to let go of this hold you have on me if you don't want more with me.”
he's quiet, staring deep into my eyes, and i brace myself for him to break my heart, but his next words cause my heart to skip a beat instead.
“i don't wanna leave this bed.” he confesses. “i don't wanna leave you.
“i really like you, y/n. and i'd really like if you'd let me be your boyfriend.”
a grin spreads across my face as i nod.
“yeah, i think i'd like that a lot.” i tell him, straining my neck up to press a kiss to his lips.
“good. now, you wore me out, i'm ready to sleep.” he chuckles, grabbing the remote to my LED lights and turninng them off, leaving us in peaceful darkness.
“i wore you out?!” i laugh, smacking his chest lightly.
“uh, yeah. you're a fiend.” he smiles, cheekily grabbing at my ass.
“me?! you made me come twice!” he waves his hand in dismissal at my words.
“semantics.”
“ugh, you and your big words.” i roll my eyes playfully, burying my head in his neck as he covers us with the blanket thats now bunched up beside him. “mr. Harvard graduate.”
“babe, thats not even a big word.” he laughs as i press a finger to his mouth to shush him.
“semantics.”

IkeVil Act 2 Prologue Thoughts & Theories
This will contain spoilers, and some 18+ remarks at the end, so MDNI. Please see under the cut. As usual, these are just my thoughts and feelings.This is a word salad. And not that this is important or anything, but I was totally listening to Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake while writing this.
My first thought is: That's it?! With the Act 1 prologue being as long as it is, and even with other IkeSeries games like Pri, I felt it was too short. I was expecting and wanting more. Perhaps, Cybird will release more later, but I doubt it. Seems that they are keeping Vogel underwraps as much as they can. Less is more, maybe that's what they were thinking?
Next: The spotlight is on Vogel (as it should be), since they're apparently debuting with Roger's route. We're excited to meet them, still I didn't like that other than Victor and Harry (with his two lines of actual dialogue), no other Crown members had any lines. Their sprites just pop up (sans William because he's away per Victor), to show that they were present. Where is that amazing stare-off that went down in Roger's PV?
Tell me this wasn't it! Hopefully, we get more of their first meeting within the first chapter of each of their main stories. Which leads me to......
When Act 2 Takes Place: It takes place a week after Kate's tenure of being the Fairytale Keeper begins, and honestly, I LOVE that. We need a change of pace. Now, don’t get me twisted, there's nothing wrong with seeing her start her journey from the very beginning, but consider:
Act 2 is supposed to delve deeper into the topic of the Curse itself from what I understand. If that's the case, we need to move things along. It would make storytelling easier (I feel), if Kate has already spent a week with the villains and isn't completely ignorant about curses.
Also, we're moving further along in the routes, which tend to become progressively darker with each route passing (my opinion), not starting from the day after she arrives at the Castle will allow the writers to delve deeper into things, and give us more chapters for - hopefully - more lore.
I mean when Roger's route finally releases, I'd expect maybe some flashbacks in chapter one of the night after Kate bumps into them on their mission, and then she agrees to be his assistant. I don't personally want an entire chapter or three of that, and I would love to see Kate already with a week's worth of experience of working with Jude & Ellis (when Jude's route releases). I want her to be someone who is already capable, not stumbling around with (How do I prove myself?), we already know how she needs to do this, as she's demonstrated in their events. Let's skip that and get to the good stuff. Now about the new meat on the market.....
Darius: Well, we all know that we can't trust him, and he's super interested in William for some reason. I'd love to see that meeting happen. His disappointed face made me chuckle when he was told that William was away, and you can clearly tell that he isn't a fan of Victor. WHY?? Is it the scones? Is it because Victor keeps his precious Cursed babies safe from those who may try to destroy his family? Can't wait for the explanation, because as Victor has said in the past, he doesn't want his time with Crown to end, and Darius seems like the one who is going to end it. I know Darius hasn't done anything yet, but I feel like I need to say this: Don't be mean to Vivi!
He seems to be focused on recruiting other cursed members into his "family", and his vision of the cursed and non-cursed joing hands together and work alongside each other (so he says).
He seems to be the big-bad (Gilbert tragic backstory vibes from this one?), I could be wrong, but that's what my gut tells me. I mean they all have one, but I feel like his is going to be twisted. A type that I am weak for.....so I am trying not to look at him at all.
Anyways....He's certainly angelic looking, and because he's wearing such an obviously painted smile, I would like to see him irked (not that I hate his character or anything), I just think it'd be funny as hell to see a blood vessel pop up on his forehead.
Nica: Right, Nica is gorgeous and he is the one I look forward to the most out of the three. His sprite has teeth when it's a full smile (congrats, my man), and a part from him making a comment that he's happy that Kate is present because he doesn't want to be stuck with a bunch of guys, he's very sharp.
He discerned by himself the real reason why she was at the castle. Also, he seems to love money and power....my other weaknesses are men who enjoy those things (stares at Jude & Silvio).....he doesn't seem to have a tyrant attitude, but I look forward to learning more about him.
Also, I have a theory I believe he may be involved with Roger's betrayal of Ellis' cursed predecessor. In Roger's main route preview:
Roger: Oh, me and…..this person……We aren’t friends. This person and I are strangers.
Mysterious Youth: ….Thank you. - “That’s enough”. (screen shakes)
Now, this could be Ring, but I think it's Nica also because of the relationship chart. I re-read the relationship chart. .
So, it'll be interesting to see how this plays out and how off I am. On to our darling......
Ring: Beloved, sweet, cold, blunt and Disney Princess Ring. He is the next villain I look forward to the most. I mean, a shared cursed ability with your twin? Moody emo vibes? Adorably quiet and strong? Please, I love him and want to cuddle him. Not to mention that skin-tight, black turtle neck....yummy. A part from this, Ring doesn't seem to like making speculations based on limited information, and I appreciate that about him. I think it's also notable that is very upfront with everyone at Crown, that if they try to harm Vogel, he won't sit quietly. Love a man of action. My question is: Why is he Darius' puppet, but not Nica? Ok, last but not least......
Sprite Designs: As usual, Nana-sensei has incorporated symbolism of their fairytale group into their clothing with lots of sharp edges. Personally, I love her art style over all, I think it's beautiful. Of note, Darius has a feather as his belt buckle and I quite like that. His brooch on his neck is the recognizable symbol of Vogel (seems like a swan's head with feathers to me), and the brooch on his floofy coat looks like the face of a swan staring at me. *Ahem* And I think his little neck window could be bigger....just saying.
Nica & Ring both have identical tassels, although they are different colors. One of their tassels likewise feature the symbol of Vogel, but the other looks like cross-hatch marks(?) Feathers(?). They apparently share the same curse, perhaps it represents their shared cursed since they are connected as twins??
They also share swan-faced holster clasps. The one on Nica holds his gun holster, and Ring's holds a book holster (?).....it looks like a book holster. Is it a book about flowers? I mean, it could be a snack pouch, but really it looks like a book holster to me. Just saying.....
Last, but not least, Nica's rings. My first thought: That's hot as hell. Next thought: Shit it's going to hurt like hell when he fingers Kate. This entire time I've been worried over William's and Jude's long ass fingernails cutting Kate up when they enter her, but this this amount of rings (assuming he doesn't remove them), that's going to scrape her so much inside. They're like a toture device.....wait.....maybe he's a sadist too? Oohh, yay if he is! Either way, he is a fan a jewelry.
Well, that's it. There's a ton more that I could write about, but I'm sleepy and I'm rambling.

Six Months - Bridgerton oneshot
This occurs in the two years Benedict spends pining for his "lady in silver" benedict is pathetically in love with her, but he doesn't know who she is yet. Basically, some Benedict pining and Bridgerton family bonding - no plot only toothache causing fluff
Six months.
Six months of losing his mind, tearing his heart, going to every ball, soiree and promenade in the off season (to his mother's astonishment and Eloise's disappointment), for the slightest sign of her.
Six months of drawing her eyes in every corner of paper he had, seeing those dark chocolate eyes every time he shut his own, but never once when they were open.
Six months of merciless dreams, of feeling that kiss with crystal clarify, her laugh ringing faintly in his memory, the slight accent in her words making his heart skip a beat even in his imagination - and yet not a sight of her in real life.
He didn't realise falling for someone would be so easy.
Was this how it had been for his siblings? Had Daphne felt like no one else understood her better than Simon when they met? Had Anthony felt an invisible string pulling him and Kate closer and closer, as though it was impossible to look away from her? Did Colin lose his mind thinking of Penelope, his dreams and thoughts filled of one person?
Benedict wanted them here (not that he'd ever admit that to them) they would understand, help him find her or help him deal with the madness his Lady in Silver had left in her wake.
He just wanted someone who had felt the same madness - who better than his lovesick siblings?
Sure he had Eloise, and she had been steadfast comfort without even trying, but he- he wanted his older siblings (they became each other's older siblings over the years, age was not the determinant)
Alas, they were all in different parts of the globe, Daphne with her third pregnancy, Colin and Penelope having left to Italy with little Thomas in tow and Kate and Anthony yet to return from India, leaving Benedict in London.
Both his sisters-in-law had written to him, making even him consider leaving the country, but the prospect of her presence made him stay.
There was Penelope's letter, just last week describing Italy and Thomas's exploits, stealing chocolates and charming shopkeepers in such vivid detail Benedict had been tempted to paint (he'd ended painting her, silver mask, dark eyes, rose pink smile and silky black hair)
Kate also wrote, stating their little boy was fine, jumping into streams, climbing trees, constantly babbling in Tamil, Hindi and English and begging his parents for stories his many uncles and aunts - though his nephew's name remained unrevealed (Kate claimed it was a surprise).
But who else would they name him after, except both their fathers? (he had stopped asking after one point, where he became preoccupied with finding another name, the name he wished he had asked her that day, the day he fell in love)
To say he was excited about his nephews would be an understatement, so he had replied, eagerly asking when they would return. While Penelope had said they would be staying in Italy for another month, Kate's latest letter (5 months ago) expressed both her and Anthony's want to return to their mantle of Viscountess and Viscount, and that even their son wanted to meet the faces of the many stories he had heard.
Benedict was not sure the young boy had a good image of his uncle, given that Anthony was the one telling the stories.
Seeing as the journey took 4 to 6 months, they should have been back by now (Violet and Benedict took turns looking out the window for an arriving carriage, even Eloise had eventually joined).
But they weren't here, so life went on as it was, dreaming and wishing.
Benedict sighed, trying to focus on the ledgers on the desk in front of him, knowing well enough he would end up sketching her eyes again.
----------------
Two weeks later, the preparations for the next social season were in full swing, and as Benedict and Eloise were about to enter their house, returning from a promenade (he needed an excuse - Eloise had been bribed with writing equipment and some good articles on feminism), the long-awaited carriage finally rolled up to their gates.
As the doors opened, Benedict heard a bright, young voice with a similar lilt as Kate's "Amma, Amma WE HE-YA!"
The familiar voice that replied had Benedict grinning and Eloise rushing to the carriage, "Yes, Chellam, we're here. This is Bridgerton-", Kate's eyes lit up as she noticed Eloise approaching and hugged her, beaming at Benedict as they broke apart from the embrace.
"Nice to see you all again"
Eloise was practically vibrating, "Kate, I've missed you so much. There isn't another intellectual person in this house-"
"And you've missed genius presence, I know", Anthony cut in, a huge smile gracing his face, holding his toddler son in his arms.
Benedict did not realise how perfectly Kate and Anthony's features could mesh, but here was he was, his long-awaited nephew tugging at his father's collar, insisting he can walk on his own.
Anthony met his eyes, noticing Benedict's attention, smile getting softer, his eyes a little brighter than usual, "He'll tell you his name, if that's what you're wondering", as he let his son stand, his hands not leaving the toddler until he found his balance.
His nephew looked up at Anthony, and at the responding smile and nod, he turned to Benedict, beaming, "I readh aa' you lethers"
Kate laughed and Benedict crouched down, his grin widening, "Did Amma tell you who sent the letters?"
He shook his head, "Noo, Papa and Amma tell me sthowies", his baby smile grew, "You closer to cloudhs that Papa, so you Unc-uh Bene- Ben- Benny!"
At that, Benedict laughed as well, though he could also feel something pricking his eyes as he lifted his nephew up, admiring the adorable mix of Anthony's face, Kate's eyes and all their spirit, "And you're Edmund Milan Bridgerton, aren't you"
He smirked at Kate 'I figured it out'
But, to his surprise, Kate smirked back, as the boy in his arms giggled, glancing at his Papa who grinned back, "Go on, darling, tell Uncle Benny your name"
Had he got the order wrong? Was it Milan Edmund Bridgerton, then?
"Papa saidh you say wong", there was pure glee in the young boy's face, "Me Edhmundh Bene- Ben- Benny Bidg-ton"
Oh. Oh.
Edmund Benedict Bridgerton
He didn't expect that.
Or that it would affect him this much.
But after a lifetime of feeling like he would never be valued by his brother, to realise he named his first son after him-
The pricking feeling in his eyes seemed to aggravate.
"Alright, alright, no need to start bawling, brother dear", Eloise taunted, though even her eyes seemed to sparkle a little, "You're not the only one who needs to meet our tiny nephew"
She she turned to Edmund, who was still in Benedict's arms, and raised her eyebrows with mock seriousness, causing Eddie to laugh.
Her lips curved upwards, unable to resist his contagious happiness, "You know Uncle Benny, who else have Amma and Papa told you stories about?"
Edmund's eyes lit up at the question, "Granny Violet, Unc-uh Colin, 'ntie Daphie, 'ntie 'Loise, 'ntie Frannie, Unc-uh Gregry andh 'ntie Icinth"
Eloise turned to gape at her oldest brother, "How...Half the ton can't do that!"
"He kept asking for stories", Anthony's voice was laced with laughter and pure joy, "I had no choice but to reveal all our exploits to him"
"Which are not a good influence, might I add", Kate continued, eyes filled with mirth, "Eddie was trying to scale buildings and climb coconut trees when he could barely walk"
Benedict laughed again, happiness lighting up in his chest, growing and growing, "And who came up with the idea of naming him after me?"
Anthony pulled him into a side hug, and Benedict realised how wonderful it was to have his older brother back, "We wanted to name him after someone important to both me and Kate, and while Edmund was decided, Benedict fits that category best"
"I would be offended", Eloise butted in, "But I haven't seen Benedict this happy in a long time, so I'll let it pass", she turned to face Kate, who smiled sheepishly, "Your daughter better be named Eloise"
"Mary Eloise Bridgerton sounds fine", Kate replied, taking her son from Benedict's arms, "Plus we had to name him Benedict, or gods forbid my wonderful son ends up like his strict and serious Papa, hmm chellam?"
Eddie giggled at Anthony's pout, "Andh- andh Amma say nex' Mi-an"
Benedict raised a questioning eyebrow, "Next?"
Now even Anthony's face turned sheepish, "We may be expecting again. Surprise number two!"
Laughter bubbled out of Benedict once more, "Mother will be ecstatic, though we should've seen it coming. It's not like you two can keep your hands off each othe-"
"Benedict", Anthony hissed, the inner Viscount showing, "Not in front of Edmund"
Kate rolled her eyes, responding before Benedict could open his mouth, "He's been like this since Eddie was born. Can't even seduce him in peace"
"Kate, not in front of Edmund", Anthony stressed again, though his frown had been replaced with his characteristic, rakish smirk.
Benedict opened his mouth to cut through the rising sexual tension (he could deal with it, but it was still sickeningly sweet), but once again was interrupted as Eddie tugged on his mother's collar, "Amma, Amma, sthowy, sthowy, sthowy"
Kate sighed, "This is what Anthony was referring to", but then caught sight of an unsuspecting Eloise and grinned.
"Eddie, chellam, which of your aunts likes reading?"
"'ntie 'Loise, 'ntie 'Loise!!", he grinned at getting the answer right, as his Auntie Eloise whipped around to glare at Kate.
"Well, that's Auntie Eloise", Kate pointed to Eloise, setting Edmund down and smirking wider.
Unaware of his mother's plotting, the young boy stumbled towards his intellectual aunt, his eyes glowing at the prospect of more stories, "Read me sthowy, 'ntie 'Loise!"
And, just like that, Eloise's glare melted away into a bright smile, as she shot back to Kate, "If he's a radical by the end of this, not my fault, Amma"
Because kids might not always be her forte, but a nephew with Kate's genes and a love for stories? Eloise could work with that.
And so she took the little boys hand, making sure to take slow steps and led him into the house, telling him how they'd steal some chocolate pudding for themselves then go to the library to read all the stories he wanted.
It was not a surprise that she ended up one of the young boy's favourite aunts.
This left Anthony, Benedict and Kate, standing outside, still basking in the glow of the adorable reunion.
"Thank you", Benedict's voice cracked, the extent of his emotion finally showing, "for-"
"No need, you idiot", Anthony cut in, ruffling Benedict's hair and beaming just like his son (or his son smiled like him), "We named him after who mattered a lot to both of us", he grinned a little wider, "Just name your son after me, and we'll call it even"
Benedict shook his head, "I knew you'd have ulterior motives, I never should've trusted you"
"It's better than putting glue in your shoes"
A beat passed and both brothers broke down laughing, Kate shaking her head with a wistful smile.
"Ok, now that your sappy reunion is over", the Viscountess interrupted their raucous laughter, "Why were you promenading?"
Anthony's brows furrowed, "Right, why were you? It's not a very 'Benedict' thing to do. You should be doodling away in your sketchbook"
That's when it hit Benedict, that for the first time in six months, his thoughts weren't being haunted by his Lady in Silver. It wasn't some grand award, but he had gone ten minutes not thinking about the angel of his dreams, ten minutes simply enjoying his wonderful, sweet, chaotic, annoying family.
So he replied with, "People change"
But Kate, heir to matchmaker Violet Bridgerton's position of Viscountess, smirked with maliciousness he didn't realise she was capable of, "More like certain people change you"
Benedict sighed, his mind once again whisked away to that fateful masquerade ball, "You've caught me, Lady Bridgerton"
And so, Benedict led a gaping Anthony and smug Kate into the house, so he could explain the mysterious masked owner of his heart to them.
But as he did, he realised that even if he never found her, he could survive. Sure he would feel as though part of him was always missing, but with moments this sweet and a family this chaotic and bright, he'd survive.
He had his family. What else did he need?
----------------
It was no surprise when, two years later, Benedict, husband of the magnificent Sophie Bridgerton nee Baek (who was now the family he needed most) walked into the Bridgerton household announcing the birth of his son, Charles Anthony Bridgerton.
I realise this is very Kate and Anthony centric. It was intentional. I love them. I just love the Bridgerton family being adorable together. and now that the possibility of Kate not returning came up, I HAD to write this scene. Please, please bring back Kate - I need scenes like this in season 4

Price but he’s ignoring you as you ride his cock like your life depends on it. Just…going through his paperwork like he’s unbothered that you’re gripping his cock like a vice
i changed it to him taking a phone call for horny related reasons
cw: amab reader. maybe a tiny little bit of a sissy kink if you squint. clit and cunt are used for genitals, though no gendered terms for reader themself. chastity device/cumming untouched. very brief daddy kink. yeah.
The worst part about it is you were fucking close. Between the angle and the way he pistoned up in to you, or the way his strong grip on your hips held you down against him, he was hitting that spot only he ever seemed able to reach just right, everytime, and you'd been on the verge of cumming all over him when his phone rang.
"John," you'd hissed when he reached for it, trying to swat at his hand. He'd just tutted at you, told you to be quiet like a good toy as he accepted the call, cock still burried to the hilt within you.
You play nice until you gather it's Laswell and pout when you realize it could take a while, though the way John never flags is encouraging. You let his grumbling wash over you for a bit, disinterested, and keep yourself entertained by stroking your hands over his hairy belly, trying to make the best of this unexpected intermission by using it to appreciate him - how handsome he is, how soft he's getting in his old age. It works until it doesn't, your wandering hands only serving to turn you on even more. So you can't be blamed when your hips give an experimental grind, swallowing him down impossibly deeper.
John grunts, gives you that patronizing look from under his bushy brow. He takes advantage of Kate's long-winded instructions on the other end to mouth one word at you - behave - before his gruff voice returns, confirming through the phone that he understands whatever it is she was saying.
Unlike him, you're not in such a listening mood.
When your pace picks up, John spares you exactly one disappointed frown, a single shake of his head, and then he's relaxing into his seat, free hand falling away from you to plant his elbows on his arm rests, sighing in frustration or annoyance or both as he tilts his face toward the ceiling, listening to Kate prattle on in silence, the working of his jaw the only indication he's thinking anything at all.
It's frustrating work. Without John's help, you can't mimick the strong, deep strokes he'd been fucking you with and your irritation only grows, even as you lean back, planting your hands on his desk to guide his cock toward your front wall, grinding your hips just right to make the bulbous head of him work against that spot that usually has your eyes crossing. It works here, too, forcing stuttered little gasps out of your mouth as you try to keep quiet (John doesn't seem to care about your noises, but you do - the tought of looking Kate in the eye next time you see her knowing full well she's heard what you sound like when you get off a mortifying prospect), but still it's not enough, not when you can't tug your clit for the cage he's had you locked in since morning.
Your hands find purchase on his arm rests first, the one hand covering his and attempting to gain his attention by squeezing the back of his meaty fist as you continue to ride him shallowly, working yourself back up. John just shakes you off, your hand skittering up his burly arm until you can plant it on his wide shoulder, your other gripping the forearm of the hand which cradles his phone before sliding to his bicep. He's still dressed, the thick material of his shirt stiff between your fingers because he'd been too eager, before. This touch he seems to accept, or at least doesn't care enough about to break his concentration as he continues to chat with Laswell. Suits you fine, his strong body perfect to lean against as you heave yourself off him, slamming back down with as much force as you can generate despite your knees being crammed up on his hips, his frame too wide for you to properly straddle him in this chair.
You finally get a reaction from him when you climb off, change position, turn around to straddle his wideset knees and grip his cock tight, stroking just to hear him grunt into the phone before lowering yourself onto him, cunt slick with more than just lube from the feel of it and all you need to carry on, the knowledge you're having an effect on him.
It's much easier to get a proper rhythm like this, your hips slamming down onto his when you lean back against him, hands braced on his armrests. John doesn't shake your grip this time, lets you grip his meaty wrist as you you use him, lets your head tilt back onto his shoulder. Briefly, you worry Kate can hear your panting, and then John you catch John's own stuttered breaths in your ear and you stop worrying altogether, too busy chasing the small huffs he lets slip when your cunt squeezes him like a vice - the only indication you're having an effect on him at all and yet still enough to drive you mad, a desperate little thing for his approval.
So when a proper moan escapes you - tiny but there, undeniable - and John's cock twitches within you, his facade breaking just enough you can feel it, you're done, cum leaking from your useless little untouched clit and spilling over the edges of your cage as you wind yourself down, cunt trying to milk John's cock for all it's worth despite his continued disinterest.
It's when you're slumped forward against the desk again, too sensitive and strung out to bother extracting yourself quite yet that you finally hear John sign off, the quiet chirp of the line disconnecting as he leans forward to place it on the desk next to you. He stays there a moment, cuddled close, the buttons of his shirt digging into your back while his heavy palms reacquaint themselves with your hips, fingers digging in as he regains his forgotten grip on you, cock twitching within your abused cunt.
"Done already, love? Selfish little thing, you. Daddy's turn. "

Boundless Devotion - Part III
Pairing: princess!Natasha Romanoff x fem!reader
Summary: MedievalAU. Natasha is the eldest princess of the Romanov Kingdom. As the time of her coronation approaches, she is suddenly forced to make a decision – either find herself a partner or her parents will choose one for her.
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6 | Part 7 | Part 8 | Part 9 | Part 10 | Part 11 | Part 12 | Part 13 | Part 14 | Part 15
Warnings: slight angst, slight fluff
Words: 4537
A picnic basket rests atop a carefully spread blanket on the ground in the shade of a large lakeside tree.
In the distance, two dogs chase and play with each other, darting through the grass.
A noblewoman sits comfortably on the blanket while watching as the two princesses of the kingdom engage in a friendly competition by the water's edge.
At one point, the eldest princess casually provides some new information, causing the seated individual to shoot up in surprise.
“You said what?!” Kate’s voice echoes in the clearing.
Unfazed by her outburst, Natasha calmly picks up a smooth stone and hurls it into the lake. The stone skips across the water's surface several times before coming to a stop with a satisfying plop.
“I had to do something,” she explains.
A look of confusion and concern crosses Kate's face as she tries to make sense of the situation.
"But now your mother thinks you're in a relationship,” Kate says before panically stressing, “A relationship that doesn't exist."
With a smug tone, Yelena points her finger at Natasha and comments, “I told you — your plan sucks.”
She effortlessly catches the stone that Natasha throws at her, playfully sticking out her tongue at her sister, and then tosses it into the lake. The stone skips across the water, falling just one skip short of Natasha’s score.
Groaning at her loss, Yelena returns to the blanket and flops down beside Kate with a disappointed huff.
In consolation for her defeat, Kate hands a sandwich to the younger princess before asking about the other significant flaw in her plan.
“So when are you going to tell Y/n?”
At her question, Natasha stares out at the water, lost in thought, as she contemplates her answer.
Considering the lengths you go through to avoid her, just getting you to meet her will be difficult, much less telling you about her plan.
Natasha never imagined there would be a point in her life where one of her biggest problems would be just getting you to talk to her.
She lets out a sad sigh at the reminder, absently kicking the rocks on the ground into the water as she tries to come up with an idea to see you.
“Natasha Alianovna Romanov!”
At the sound of your voice, Natasha snaps her head up and turns around. She spots you in the distance stomping towards her, your face frowning in anger.
Confused and surprised at your sudden appearance, Natasha tilts her head curiously as she watches you approach.
"Y/n?" she whispers under her breath in disbelief.
Yelena chuckles amusedly behind her, teasing, “I think she’s already heard the news.”
When you finally stop in front of Natasha, you poke her in the shoulder with an accusatory tone.
“You! Why am I hearing that you’re saying we’re—“
You stop, noticing the other two on the blanket behind Natasha watching the interaction with rapt attention.
Lowering your voice, you finish your question in a whispered hiss, “—you’re saying that we’re together, romantically?”
Despite your anger directed at her, a small smile breaks through Natasha's face at the sight of you and at the fact that you're speaking to her casually, just like you used to do.
Before Natasha can answer, Yelena calls out to you in reassurance.
“Don’t worry, Y/n, we already know about your fake relationship with my sister.”
Hearing this, you place your hands on your hips and turn to her with a glare, redirecting your anger to the younger princess.
“And you just went along with it?”
Unfazed, Yelena just shrugs her shoulders in response as she takes another bite of her sandwich.
When your gaze shifts over accusingly to Kate, she raises her hands in a defensive gesture.
“I only found out about it recently.”
You throw your hands up in disbelief.
“Great! Who else knows?”
Natasha is about to respond when she catches a glimpse of bandages peeking out from under your arm sleeve.
Frowning, she reaches out and takes your hand gently to bring it closer to her in examination.
“What happened to your wrist?” she asks in concern.
When you realize what she was referring to, you pull your hand back quickly, tugging down your sleeve to conceal the bandages.
“It’s nothing,” you reply, shifting your eyes away from her.
“That doesn’t look like nothing,” Natasha remarks as she tries to take another look.
You hide your arms behind your back, dodging Natasha’s hand.
“It’s fine," you insist stubbornly. "There was just a small accident at the stables yesterday.”
Kate gives you a confused look before commenting, “I thought you said you were going to rest yesterday.”
Natasha raises her eyebrows at the information and turns back to you accusingly, having caught you in a lie.
You respond with a resolute shake of your head, giving her a firm glare.
“No, you owe me an explanation for what’s going on first.”
Yelena interrupts the conversation with a sharp clap, brushing away the remaining crumbs on her hands, and stands up, pulling the unsuspecting Kate with her.
“Come on, Kate, let’s leave these two to resolve their little lover’s quarrel.”
“But–!” Kate cries out in disappointment. She is pulled away before she can protest anymore, leaving Natasha and you alone.
Rolling your eyes at Yelena’s choice of words, you cross your arms and look at Natasha expectantly.
Natasha lets out a resigned sigh, rubbing her head exhaustedly at the memory of her mother’s proposition.
“I need to be in a relationship by the time of my coronation or else my parents will choose someone for me.”
You scoff in disbelief at her explanation.
“Natasha, you can easily get anyone in this kingdom to fall for you,” you say pointedly. “Why did you need to involve me?”
Natasha gestures to you in an obvious manner.
“Because you were the first person that I thought of who would go along with my plan.”
That was partially true.
Honestly, when Natasha was told she needed to have someone by her side, the only person that came to mind whom she trusted enough was you.
You frown at her in confusion as you ask.
"What plan?"
Natasha places her hands on your shoulders, giving you a serious look as she explains.
“We just need to pretend until after my coronation. Once it’s over, we can just tell them that it didn’t work out and that we’re better off as friends.”
“And if they still decide to choose someone else for you then?” you point out.
Natasha shrugs nonchalantly, replying confidently, “Then at least I’ll have some power to reject their choice after I become queen.”
She gives you a pleading look.
“I just need your help until then.”
Rubbing your forehead uneasily, you contemplate the choices in your mind.
If you don’t help Natasha, she will be forced into a relationship that she doesn’t want. However, if you do accept, it means you'll have to spend most of your time with her, which is something you've been avoiding all year, to maintain the charade of the two of you as a couple.
Noticing the conflicting emotions on your face and sensing your hesitation, Natasha tilts her head to meet your gaze and calls your name to capture your attention.
“Hey, you don’t have to decide right now,” her voice is gentle and understanding, as she tries to relieve the pressure that she realized she had put on you.
“Look, there is going to be a ball tonight to appease the other noble families for the canceled meetings and—”
“I’m not in the mood for socializing, Natasha,” you interject with a frustrated exhale.
“Just…take some time to think it over,” she continues.
Her voice is calm and soothing to the conflicted thoughts in your head.
“Come to the ball tonight, and let me know your decision then,” she offers.
You lower your head as you consider her words, still conflicted about the matter.
Natasha's hand gently lifts your face, directing your gaze back to her.
“I’m not going to force you, Y/n,” Natasha asserts sincerely. “If you decide you don’t want to do it, I’ll tell my mother the truth. But having you there may help.”
She nods at you confidently, commenting, “Maybe you can change her mind or something. She has always liked you.”
With a resigned sigh, you give in, feeling the tension in your shoulders ease slightly.
“Fine, I’ll think about it,” you concede, your tone carrying a hint of resignation.
However, you follow your agreement by poking her shoulder again, this time with a warning tone.
“But there better not be any more surprises.”
When Natasha acknowledges your words with a nod and a promise evident in her eyes, you turn around to leave, walking toward where you left your horse earlier.
Natasha follows quickly after you when she sees where you’re going, calling out to you.
“Hold on, Y/n! You can’t ride back with that injury.”
You glance at the princess who is now walking beside you, raising your brow at her.
“I came here, didn’t I?”
Natasha rolls her eyes at your words.
“Recklessly, you could have fallen off,” she chastises.
As you reach your horse, you untie the reins from its tether and shoot her an exasperated look.
“I’ll be fine, Natasha,” you reassure her.
Natasha takes hold of the reins in your hand and moves to block your path, giving you a knowing look.
"Don't be stubborn," she says, her tone carrying a teasing challenge.
The two of you lock in an intense stare as you both wait for the other to back down. Natasha’s gaze is steady and unwavering as she looks at you.
You recognize that determined expression. Whenever Natasha has that look, she is never backing down from whatever challenge is in front of her.
After a moment passes without any change, you sigh in defeat, releasing the reins to Natasha. Her lips curve into a small smile at your pout.
“Come on, let me help you up, and we can go together. Does that work?” she compromises.
You relent with a nod in agreement.
She helps you get up onto the saddle without too much strain on your arm and makes sure that you are safely secured on top of the horse.
As Natasha prepares to pull herself up, a frown creases her brow when she notices the family crest on the horse.
"This is Lady Maria's horse," she observes, looking up at you curiously. "Why do you have it?"
“I was meeting with her this afternoon for tea,” you reply.
Natasha's eyebrows furrow even more as she recalls Steve mentioning in passing how Maria had recently started looking for a partner.
“You mean like a date?” she asks.
You shrug, not noticing Natasha’s change of expression.
“I guess,” you answer honestly. “We just agreed to meet and talk with each other at the moment.”
Natasha hums in response, absently patting the horse to distract herself from the slight tightness that suddenly appeared in her chest.
“And how did it go?” she asks in a casual tone, appearing nonchalant.
“It was going well, up until the part where I found out I was already in a relationship,” you remind her with a pointed look.
The tightness in her chest disappears at your words, and an unexpected wave of relief sweeps over her.
She dismisses the feeling, assuming that she's simply glad that you were speaking to her again in the familiar way that you used to.
With a chuckle, Natasha finally pulls herself up and positions herself behind you. Her hands move around you to hold the reins, enclosing you in her arms.
Moving the reins, Natasha signals the horse to start walking in the direction of your manor.
Your body instinctively relaxes against her front as her familiar comforting warmth envelops you instantly.
The two of you share a comfortable silence, accompanied by the rhythmic sound of the horse’s galloping as you head home.
After a few moments, you feel Natasha resting her chin on your shoulder before she asks softly, “Are you finally going to tell me what really happened to your wrist now?”
Instinctively, you touch your injured arm, caressing it gently. It was still sore from yesterday.
Given Natasha's protective nature, you knew she wasn't going to let it go now that she had already seen it.
Thankfully, it was easier to lie when you were not looking directly at her face.
“I was trying to cook something, and I ended up with a small burn,” you say under your breath.
Natasha lets out an amused huff at your words.
“I thought we agreed that you’re not allowed to cook again after you almost burned down the castle’s kitchen.”
You gasp in disbelief and outrage, turning your face to the side to look at her.
“That was your fault! You were supposed to watch the fire.”
Natasha chuckles softly in relief at the familiar banter. It really did feel good to have you talk with her like this again. She had missed this friendly closeness between you and her.
If you notice her slowing down the pace of the horse, you don’t say anything.
~~~~~~~ ⧗ ~~~~~~~
Arriving at the entrance of your manor with Natasha, Pietro's eyes widen in surprise at the sight of the two of you together.
When you see he is about to comment about it, you give him a pointed look.
He closes his mouth shut at your expression and instead, focuses on helping you down from the horse.
Your feet have barely touched the ground before you are pulled to the side.
Wanda turns you in multiple directions as she examines you.
“I can’t believe you just left like that!” she reprimands. “And you didn’t even tell Lady Maria about your injury before borrowing her horse.”
Pietro joins in with his sister when he hears of your actions, exclaiming, “What are you thinking, riding a horse with your hand like that?”
You try to calm them down, insisting you are okay.
Natasha chuckles at the interactions between the three of you, glad to see that you have others close by who also care about your well-being.
Wanda’s chastising pause in surprise at the sight of the princess, whom she hadn’t noticed initially due to her intense focus on you. She offers a curtsy in greeting before firmly nudging her brother’s side to make him bow.
Natasha acknowledges them with a nod and gestures towards you.
“Please look after her and make sure she doesn’t do anything else reckless,” she requests.
At her words, you gasp in indignation.
Natasha smiles at your expression before adding softly, “I’ll see you tonight, Y/n.”
You give her a begrudging nod in acknowledgment, replying with a sincere tone.
“Thank you, Natasha, for bringing me home.”
She gives you a satisfied smile in response before nudging the horse to turn and go.
After Natasha leaves, Wanda turns to you in shock, exclaiming, “So, is it true? You and the princess? I’d understand if you didn’t want to tell us.”
Pietro huffs in disbelief, remarking, “Speak for yourself, Wanda. I, for one, would be very offended if you hid this from us.”
You roll your eyes fondly at the two of them before reminding them, “Not the place to talk about this, you two,” with your eyes glancing at the shadows where your father’s guards may be lurking.
The three of you reach your room without interruption this time. The moment you close the door, Wanda begins questioning you.
“So, are you and the princess together?”
Before you can respond, Pietro interjects with an excited clap, “It’s about time, honestly. I wagered a lot of coin over the years on the two of you ending up together.”
You blink at his words in surprise, too shocked and confused to speak.
Why would he think you and Natasha would ever get together?
Wanda slaps Pietro on the shoulder in reprimand, “I thought I told you to stop gambling away your money!”
In response, Pietro quickly moves away from his sister and hides behind you like a shield. He points at his twin accusingly.
“Like you weren’t hoping for them to happen too! At least this way I’ll also get something from the good news.”
You decide to clear up the misunderstanding and interrupt their sibling bickering, raising your hands in a stopping gesture before declaring, “There is no news! Natasha and I are not together.”
The twins stare at you in silence, waiting for further explanation.
You rub your head tiredly as you explain vaguely, “The situation is just complicated right now."
Pietro curses under his breath in response to your words, while Wanda’s shoulders slump in disappointment.
Deciding to change the subject, Wanda asks sadly, “So, what’s happening tonight?” referring to the last statement from the princess.
“A ball at the castle,” you tell her.
Wanda’s mood lifts immediately at your words, and she dashes to your closet excitedly, pulling out different dresses and laying them out on your bed.
With Wanda occupied, you turn to Pietro who is still hiding behind you. There is a stench that you didn’t notice before coming from the other twin.
“Why do you…,” you trail off, covering your nose slightly as you try to find a polite way to phrase your words.
Pietro sighs angrily, moving away and wiping at his clothes as if to brush off the disgusting smell.
“Your father tasked me with cleaning out the stables before he left this morning,” he explains.
You give him a confused look.
“Where was Cedric?” you ask, referring to the manor’s stable master who, along with his wife, has been a part of the staff since you were a child.
Wanda and Pietro exchange uncertain glances before Wanda decides to explain.
“Your father has been firing some of the older staff, replacing most of the guards with his soldiers, and assigning more duties to those remaining.”
Your eyes widen in horror at the news.
Since your mother died when you were a baby and with your father frequently away, it was mostly the staff members who essentially raised you since you were young.
They weren’t just workers.
They were your family.
And now you hear that your father is dismissing them from your home.
A sense of powerlessness washes over you as you realize your inability to do anything to protect them from your father's actions.
Seeing your expression, Wanda takes your hand gently and offers a comforting smile. She gives you a dress and changes the subject in an attempt to distract you from your distressing thoughts.
“Let’s get you ready for tonight.”
~~~~~~~ ⧗ ~~~~~~~
Fidgeting with your dress, you stand by yourself in the grand ballroom of the castle. You can feel the stares from the other nobles as they point and whisper to each other.
The rumor of your supposed relationship with Natasha has already traveled across the kingdom by the time of the ball.
However, with the additional news of your father's actions against the staff, you were too distracted to think about Natasha’s proposal.
Even now, you are unsure of your decision.
Awkwardly shuffling around under their stares, you find no friendly faces to distract yourself. It seems that Yelena has not shown up yet, and if the younger princess isn’t here, chances are Kate is with her at the moment too.
Meanwhile, you assume the large crowd at the front of the ballroom is where Natasha is currently located, being mobbed by other nobles trying to gain favor.
Among the crowd of people, you can vaguely make out her dark red hair.
Almost as if sensing your gaze on her, she turns her body in your direction.
Your eyes are about to meet hers when, suddenly, a golden cup is shoved in front of your face, blocking your view of her.
You recoil back in surprise.
When you see the person at the end of the extended arm, you internally groan in annoyance.
Though you manage to force out a polite smile, your facial expression can barely hold back from grimacing a little.
Pushing away the cup with the back of your hand and rejecting the offered drink, you greet the other noble in front of you.
“Good evening, Lord Rumlow,” you manage to muster out, sounding somewhat neutral.
Lord Brock Rumlow is the only son of another distinguished noble family in the kingdom. His house is renowned for its affiliations with mercenaries and the weapons trade.
The noble himself, however, is known for his arrogant, ruthless, and relentless personality in all that he does.
Unfortunately, you have found yourself as a part of one of his many pursuits.
Despite years of rejecting his advances and rebuffing his flirtations, his interest in you remains steadfast and annoyingly persistent.
Ignorant of your discomfort at his presence, Rumlow takes a leisurely sip from the cup you refused as his eyes roam over you with unwarranted confidence.
“My dear Y/n, I was hoping for a chance to speak with you.”
Your face involuntarily twitches in disgust at his words, and you quickly raise your hand, stopping him.
“I have to regretfully decline, Lord Rumlow. There are matters elsewhere that require my attention.”
With a forced smile, you pivot to make a swift exit.
His voice calls out to you, halting your movements.
"I sincerely hope the whispers concerning you and the princess are false,” he says before continuing ominously. “It would be a shame if we lost the opportunity that your father was hoping for us.”
Your brows furrow at his words, and you turn around slowly to face him again.
“What do you mean?” you ask hesitantly.
A satisfied smirk tugs at the corner of his lips as he calmly spins the cup in his hand, swirling the liquid inside.
“Your father seemed intrigued at the possibility of a union between our two families when I presented the idea to him yesterday at our meeting.”
He can’t be serious.
You can’t believe his audacity to suggest such a thing to your father.
Anger bristles in you at the thought of being forced into a marriage with him through your father.
Just as you are about to reprimand him, you freeze at the terrifying realization.
Your father has always valued power above everything. If marrying you to Rumlow gives him any advantage, he would take the chance immediately without any consideration to you.
And if he does arrange a marriage for you, would you even be able to do anything to stop it? You can't even protect the staff members from his decisions.
As the thoughts run through your mind, Lord Rumlow extends his hand toward your face, as if he were about to pet one of his possessions.
You want to move away, but you can’t, your body frozen at the scary realization of how powerless you are against your father.
Suddenly, a familiar and warm presence appears from behind you as a hand rests against your arm, gently pulling you back against her side.
Looking back, you find Natasha now standing next to you, her eyes glaring at the man in front of you.
“I hope I’m not interrupting,” she says calmly, but you can hear the hint of warning and anger underneath her tone.
Rumlow's hand curls into a fist and returns to his side as his smile twitches downward slightly at the arrival of the princess.
“Not at all, your Highness,” he responds, his tone dripping with fake politeness. He gestures to you.
“I was just telling Lady Y/n how excited I am for her future.”
Shifting his attention back to you, his polite grin morphs into a more sinister expression.
“I do hope we get a chance to speak again, Lady Y/n.”
With a curt half-bow directed at Natasha, he turns away from the two of you and disappears into the crowd.
Natasha's face twists in disgust as he leaves before commenting, “You’d think he would leave you alone after how many times you’ve rejected him.”
When you don’t answer, she turns to look at you and finds your face drained of color.
Immediately, Natasha moves to stand in front of you, her hands gently cradling your face as she examines you worriedly.
“Hey, what’s wrong? You look like you’re about to be sick.”
Your hands instinctively grab hers, stopping her examination and guiding her hands back down to hang between your bodies. Her familiar touch helps to clear your mind a little from the paralyzing fear as traces of energy return to you.
Letting out a shaky breath, you reassure her, “I’m fine. Just a little exhausted from being blindsided by all the different news today.”
Natasha tilts her head at you curiously as she waits for you to explain further.
That’s when you notice the sudden crowd subtly gathering around the two of you, their bodies leaning closer as if to eavesdrop on your conversation.
Rolling your eyes at the intrusiveness of the other nobles, you firmly grasp Natasha’s hand and guide her to a relatively vacant area on the dance floor.
Natasha’s other hand naturally falls to your waist as she takes the lead, bringing both of you into a slow dance.
“You were saying?” she asks.
“My father might consider arranging a marriage between me and Lord Rumlow.”
Natasha stops in her tracks, exclaiming, “What?! He can’t do that!”
You give her a deadpan look, raising an eyebrow at her, before pointing out, “Natasha, your parents are also pushing you to have a relationship. I think the answer of whether or not our parents can meddle in our romantic lives is pretty obvious.”
You continue sadly, “The difference is — at least you have more of a choice.”
Natasha lets out a frustrated curse at the unfairness of your situation.
Tired of all the new revelations, you rest your head against her shoulder with a sigh.
The two of you resume the dance, swaying slowly as the atmosphere around you two grows somber.
Suddenly, your head shoots up at a thought, and you give her a meaningful look.
“Natasha, your plan — the one where we pretend to be a couple.”
She tilts her head curiously in question.
“How does that help you?”
“If it’s you, my father can’t argue that Lord Rumlow would be the better option for me to be with,” you reason.
There’s no question which is the more advantageous arrangement between a lord versus the princess and heir to the kingdom.
Her eyes search yours to see how serious you are before asking sincerely, “Are you certain about this?”
You nod decisively, replying, “I’m sure, Natasha.”
Seeing your resolve, Natasha returns your nod with one of her own, saying, "Okay, I guess we're together then."
Afterward, you furrow your brows in contemplation as you consider the next step.
“So, how do we go about officially announcing our new relationship?”
Natasha glances around, observing the obvious stares from other nobles toward the two of you, and suddenly, a teasing expression forms on her face.
“I have an idea,” she says with a smirk.
