just played portal 2 for the first time yes somehow ive never played it before. reposting my thoughts as i played here:
I fucking hate wheatley. Little white cuck ball
As i understand it wheatley turns out to be like Secretly Evil later or whatever but like heâs so blatantly passive aggressive and casually shitty to you that i donât see how anyone didnât go okay fuck this guy immediately. Like heâs clearly acting as a sort of arm of aperture itself which constantly bombards you with like jokingly ableist/eugenicist/classist/misogynistic shit
like the juxtaposition of him being a huge asshole because he thinks you have brain damage and the announcer being like âok if youâre old or stupid go back to your Primitive Tribe so we can have Good Subjects for Progressâ is 110% deliberate
also him assuming the person who killed glados was male LMAO
I want glados so bad
Some arasaka tower shit is happening to me
My psionic warriors find me art of chell dribbling and dunking wheatley like a basketball
Glados wants me so bad
my coworker losing his mindddddd đ đ đ
Iâm finding these puzzles easier than portal 1 but like in a good way. more intuitive
Also this has almost certainly been said before at length but god valve is so so so good at environmental design
HL is really good too obviously but it really shines in portal where they get to play with contrasts
the really harsh visual contrast between all of portal and the escape stages and the fact that you can see hints of it before it happens. chefs kiss
Single biggest visual improvement: the scary fucked up water that kills you
Yeah I do wish id played this earlier LMAO
glados hums me beautiful songs
Iâm imagining that literally none of this is landing for chell like she doesnât care. and/or glados is just making shit up and so chell also doesnât care
wheres the dev thing where they were like âchell doesnât talk because sheâs just fucking pissedâ
She's literally obsessed with me
Genuinely why does anyone like wheatley I'm gonna crush this little shit like a soda can
Guy accuses a woman who has literally never spoken to him or responded to a thing hes said of being bossy
At least the ways in which cave johnson sucks are really funny
i was talking about how wheatley is kind of a stand-in for aperture as an entity and i think cj is a continuation of that. like the above screenshot lines up as being an evolution of cjâs distaste for the âlab boysâ and âbean countersâ; a top-down disdain for the people actually making âprogressâ possible and keeping things running
me when i have 60 dollars
Valve in particular has a way of making its social commentary so pointed and over the top that its funniness almost but not quite overshadows the point itâs making. In a good way let me be clear
Like itâs so ridiculous you almost forget itâs criticizing/interrogating real phenomena that itâs honestly not depicting that absurdly because everything is very very intentional
i like the idea of chell being like. essentially an ordinary uninvolved person as much as she can be just thematically. glados is petty in the way that humans are petty, she chooses insults that are like⌠low-hanging fruit because of the environment she was cultivated in, so i think itâs both funnier and more thematically resonant if chell is like. Not even a little bit emotionally affected by glados fucking with her sheâs just like Get me out of hereeeeee
A lot of peopleâs theories about this game seem to rely on glados being truthful which is fucking hilarious
woman who is making shit up to fuck with you: I am making shit up to fuck with you gamers: goly FUCK theory #CONFIRMED?????????????
aw hell no not the aperture science ejaculation gel
Wheatley can you quit jacking off over mic. Genuinely discusses me I hope he explodes
I do not want him to experience pleasure in any form much less as a result of my actions
The fucked up turretcubes are very cute though. Like hermitcrabs
Oh hey itâs the part where he kills me
this is a really good visual gag
Genuinely how does anyone admit to wanting to fuck wheatley how is that not an incredibly embarrassing thing to admit to
how sexist the adventure sphere is was funny and again it is not common for me to say that. valve just knows what they're doing
Sheâs holding my handâŚ
Rent free in her fucking head
Rent. Free.
Literally obsessed with me.
I donât think itâs supposed to do this but itâs on a black screen with no options and has been for like five minutes and i sat there for the entire five minutes like âwow this is so poignantâŚâ
Anyway yeah that kicked ass

This MUST be a silly question, but I can't find any information on it so I gotta ask- am I right in assuming that the phrase "very easily convinced by avatar" in the approval bar tooltip SHOULD mean that having high approval would make the DC on persuasion checks against that character go down?
Because it SOUNDS like that's what it's implying, but if it actually did that, someone probably would have mentioned something about it by now?
If it's not that, then what DOES it mean??? How much does approval ACTUALLY affect the gameplay???
#squirrel plays bg3#I'm about to go get the nightsong#and I didn't purposefully try to get spoiled I just got to the gauntlet too early#so when I checked if entering the thing was a cutoff point I read that there'll be a hard persuasion check#like DC21#on Shadowheart if I want the goidy two-shoes outcome#but the game itself says that she's easily convinced by me so.....#it sounds odd that it'd just be a hard number on that DC#regardless of her feelings about you#(I like got there before even bothering to go to Moonrise; like the area is almost maxed out)#(and I just went to the tower for the first time last night)#(this whole thought was sparked by getting some disapproval from Wyll)#(but he then essentially said that he understands that I'm playing a part and that I probably hated doing that)#(which SOUNDS like a thing that otherwise high approval would trigger; he wouldn't say that to someone he doesn't think virtuous otherwise)

modern au where you accidentally send ellie, your bestfriend, a nude PT4
pt1 here , pt2 here , pt3 here
n/a hello y'all!!! first of all, thank you for all the support in this little series <3 i can't believe all the love that is receiving
this is an additional chapter, it's not necessary to read it if you don't want to because is all smut and it's not essential to the plot, but its made for those who enjoy read this kind of content so... enjoy!!
â
ellie's kisses ignite your skin, wet and noisy they plant themselves on your sweaty skin thanks to the summer heat. her touch is hungry and shy at the same time, trying to engrave every part of you in her fingertips.
she can't believe what's happening. in her mind a battle rages where her thoughts fly by and don't stop. she's touching you, she's kissing you, is this real?
the fantasy she's been imagining before going to sleep for the last few months becomes reality the moment your mouth provokes a choked moan from her lips.
"ellie" you moan between kisses, a trickle of saliva connecting them each time he pulls away.
"what?" ellie murmurs in the same tone as you, her voice choked "tell me what you want."
instead of telling her what you want, you show her, and when ellie watches as you untie your bikini straps and bare your breasts ellie has to keep her mouth shut to keep from drooling. she quickly understands, and her tongue plays around your nipple, eliciting slight moans from you.
ellie massages and sucks on your breasts with a skill you never knew she possessed, and when you watch her in action, you have the urge to moan and let everyone hear how good she makes you feel, even with just one touch.
"they're better than in the picture" ellie murmurs against your skin, and you can't help but laugh. silly as always, you think.
"you idiot" she smiles and moves down to your stomach, marking a path of kisses.
"i'm just telling the truth"
you pull her hair in playful response, but when ellie lets out a choked moan you feel a warmth invade your body. your fingers play with the collar of her t-shirt, and ellie pulls it off, she has a sporty top that does wonders for your eyes.
she kisses your stomach, shamelessly sucking on your skin and leaving a trail of saliva all over you, so obscene that you feel sick for enjoying it.
"i didn't know..." you say, between moans "i didn't know this side of you."
you can hear ellie laugh as she throws off your shorts, tossing them on the floor "well, you never let me show you"
you knew what ellie's personality was like, playful, obscene and even provocative at many times, so you had an idea of what she would be like in intimacy (not that you ever imagined it...) but you were still surprised at the determination she had for her actions, how she knew where and how to touch to elicit sounds from your mouth.
her hands kneaded the soft skin of your thighs, admiring how her fingers dug into your flesh. with a sudden movement, ellie pulled you to the edge of the bed causing a giggle from you which she also joined in. "silly. i'm trying to eat you out and you're laughing."
that caused you to laugh even harder, pushing ellie's head away from your cunt with your hand â you couldn't stop laughing.
ellie bit your finger and took advantage of your complaint to grab your wrist and press it against the mattress, leaving you immobilized.
"cannibal" you said, inwardly enjoying ellie's control.
she only murmured a small "mhm", planting kisses on your inner thighs, gently biting and kissing the skin abused by her mouth. the laughter passed quickly, your hips moving towards ellie's mouth impatiently, eager for her touch.
"ellie" you murmured between moans "don't tease"
ellie left your thighs and moved back up to meet your face.
"tell me what you want" she murmured, her lips brushing against yours as she spoke "tell me what you want from me and i'll do it."
ellie could be provocative. she knew how to treat you, and over so many years of friendship she had learned to codify your personality; whiny and too proud for your own good, and of course she was going to take advantage of that once she had you the way she wanted you.
"don't do that" you murmured, looking into her eyes. she noticed how they were crystallized.
"don't be shy" she replied, leaving kisses all over your cheekbones and jaw "it's me, ellie. your best friend" she said and a playful smile planted itself on her face.
ellie really didn't need your order - she knew she could go on with her mission without you telling her, but something inside her wanted, no, needed, to hear what you wanted, almost as a confirmation that this wasn't a fever dream of hers, one where she was hallucinating.
"come on" ellie continued, one of her hands playing with the elastic of your underwear "i want to hear you"
the sensations are too much for you, so you surrender "touch me, please" you say, feeling your face flush with embarrassment "i need you"
ellie may be provocative, but she's not cruel â so as soon as she hears you, she returns to her kneeling position in front of you, grabbing your thighs and positioning them on her shoulders "that wasn't so hard, was it?"
you can't help but let out a moan as soon as you feel her fingers move your panties to the side and her tongue make contact with your intimacy. ellie's fingers sink into your flesh and hold you open before her.
the only thing that comes out of your mouth are stifled moans and groans, her movements not letting you have a breath. your hips chase her mouth and her tongue accompanies the movement - you grab her hair causing her to moan in your clit.
her mouth works wonders against your cunt. it doesn't take long before a knot in your stomach builds, creating so much pressure that you feel like you're going to explode at any moment - and you do, as you feel your climax.
ellie quickly notices thanks to the movement of your body and your moans, abandoning her actions and devoting herself to planting kisses on your thighs, caressing and helping you catch your breath.
"k know" she says, watching as your eyes are closed and your body suffer from little spasms "i'm here" you feel her hand grab your hand and caress it.
"do you want some water?" you hear ellie ask after a few seconds, lying down next to you.
you deny and grimace as you feel your wet panties "im okay, thanks" ellie nods and smiles at you. you can see her lips glistening from your juices and it's so obscene you swear you can finish again at such sight. "you have a little bit of me in your mouth" you murmur, your thumb stroking ellie's bottom lip.
"your fault" ellie answers you, lightly biting your fingertip. you let out a giggle.
the air feels heavy. the sun streaming through the window hits your almost naked body and ellie can't help but admire it once again.
"u little perv" you say as you see where her gaze was directed.
ellie rolls her eyes and reaches up to plant a small kiss on your lips "can't help it".

Ex-Boyfriend John Price MiniFic
Thinking of your ex-boyfriend John Price seeing you again for the first time after a nasty break-up that essentially didn't go as planned by him.
You knew what you were getting into when entering a relationship with a man who was a workaholic. You knew it was always a priority but you never thought that it had to be an ultimatum between you and that, clearly you were an idiot to think you were more important.
If only you hadn't asked his friend, why was he prolonging his time with you if his decision was set to end it with you when he got the promotion? What exactly would change in that short amount of time?
That night ended in screams, no matter how much John tried to tell you he loves you, it fell on deaf ears. "Actions speak louder than words" was always the saying and you know what? That applies to this, it applies to everything he's ever made you felt and the lack of exchange.
You tried so hardly to not discredit the past, but maybe he just used you. He only tolerated your love like it's a minor convenience for him, you were already there, it's not like he could be picky on who chooses to take care of him.
But who cares right? That was three years ago and you two live separate lives now. John was out there doing god knows what with his colleagues drinking his nights away as he took another woman in bed every night in hopes to drown you out his mind.
If it wasn't for his friend's influence that one drunken night, John wouldn't have said yes to attending a black-tie event. Wasn't ever his thing really, fancy settings with stuffy clothes.
He tried to fit in as far as he could, pretending to stare at whatever painting or sculpture he can spot when in reality no thoughts or feelings except one thing.
He was never one to appreciate or understand what most art try to convey but he once knew someone who did. This was a place you would've thrived in and maybe some part of him wanted you to be there, some sick joke life was playing really.
His whole body froze right as he knew it. There you were, that silk baby pink dress that just made you glow paired with that white fur shawl that he remembers you showed off to him. How adorable you were telling him that it caught your eye and might be useful at a formal event.
Something he thought he'd only ever see in his dreams again.
Barely blinking as you stared at the painting mounted on the wall with this golden frame, you expression deep in thought yet your eyes were glassed with admiration.
What does he do? Without thinking, he stepped forward in hopes that his body would be strong enough to be able to approach you.
He was about to when.. a man approaches you, embracing you from behind. You were caught of guard but you quickly realize who it was and it was clear to John what your familiarity was with this man.
The image of the man burying his face on the nape of your neck was more than enough to cruelly twist the knife in his heart that's been lodged there for the past 3 years.
Those three words uttered by the man, loud enough for John to hear, the same one you'd always tell him but he rarely returned for a reason he himself is unaware of.
The sound of the camera clicks snapped Price out of his trance, paparazzi, who wouldn't want to capture an intimate, romantic moment between a couple who both happened to be rich?
He couldn't do anything to fix this even if he tried, for all he knew you were now in the arms of a influential, dangerous man who would destroy John's life if he wanted to. He gulps, not knowing what to do..

Conflicted (Michael Kaiser x Fem!reader)
angst, fem!reader, arguing, and uhhh basically all angst, childhood friends, swearing
a/n: after this I honestly have no idea who to do next. I'm kinda in between Isagi again or someone elseđ¤ˇââď¸
I also got this as inspiration
BTW IM SO SORRY FOR BEING LATE
(omg I finally got it to work omg)
ââ
Experiencing someone you love deeply suddenly transform into a stranger can feel like the ground has fallen away beneath you. The trust you placed in them, the cherished memories, the laughter sharedâall of it can vanish in an instant, leaving you grappling with an unbearable emptiness.
In the face of such devastation, some cling desperately to hope, convinced that the past can be reclaimed. They construct fragile illusions to shield themselves from the harsh truth, believing that everything will somehow return to the way it was. But these comforting lies only deepen the wounds, which lie temporarily closed, waiting to reopen with even more agony.
How long could you endure this torment? Some carry this weight for a lifetime, while others crumble under the pressure far too soon. For you, how long will you hold on, waiting for that moment when you perhaps see him again? How long until the heaviness of his âexplanationâ crushes you? In the end, when the truth finally pierces through the lies you've built around your heart, how will you cope with the devastation and lies?
Thats up to you.
âŚđĽâŚ
Frequent moves were a normal part of your life, given that your father, a businessman, was always busy either supporting or establishing new companies. Over time, you became accustomed to the constant change, no longer feeling as upset or frustrated about leaving behind new memories and friends.
With your mother having sadly passed away, your father was the only family you had. However, his demanding schedule often kept him away, leaving you with too much free time. You would often wander aimlessly, your father always worrying since you were still so young.
One day, during one of these aimless walks, you noticed a boy around your age dressed in dusty, worn clothes, playing with an old, worn out soccer ball. You found yourself standing there, captivated, as he skillfully shifted the ball from one foot to the other. The fluid motion of his dribbling drew you in, sparking a sense of fascination.
Eventually, the boy noticed your quiet admiration.
"Can I help you, gnädige Frau?" he asked, his thick German accent coloring his voice as he stopped the ball under his foot.
Since arriving in Germany a few months ago, you had made steady progress with the language. Your father insisted you familiarize yourself with the formalities and learn a good number of words, as speaking German would be essential for getting by.
"I was just watching you play," you replied, mirroring his language and matching the casual energy in his tone.
He regarded you for a moment, as though sizing you up, before speaking again. "Do you know how to play? FuĂball, meine ich," he said, his expression unreadable.
You hesitated briefly. While you were familiar with the basics and rules of football, you'd never actually played it. Your most significant experience with the sport had been attending a game with your cousinâan exciting memory, but that was as far as it went.
"I'm not sure how to play, but I understand the basics and the rules," you admitted, glancing briefly at the soccer ball.
"Only the basics, huh?" he murmured, flicking the ball up with the same foot that had held it steady. It flew in the air before dropping neatly into his arms.
The blonde boy began to walk toward you, his gaze fixed on you the entire time. Stopping just a few feet away, he asked, "What's your name?"
"Y/n L/n," you answered softly.
"Y/n L/nâŚ" he echoed, as if testing the sound of your name on his tongue. His eyes drifted to the side, and he repeated your name again, his tone thoughtful, as though trying to commit it to memory or decipher some hidden meaning within it.
âAnd what's your name?" you asked, raising an eyebrow at his peculiar behavior.
The blonde boy seemed to snap out of his thoughts, his eyes meeting yours again. "Michael Kaiser," he replied.
Without warning, he tossed the ball toward you, giving you no time to react. It landed between your feet, and you glanced down at it slowly.
"Kick the ball," he instructed.
You looked back up at Kaiser, processing his words. Kick the ball? That sounded simple enough. You positioned your foot carefully, recalling how professional players did it, and swung your leg forward.
The ball rolled back to Kaiser with surprising smoothness, considering you had little experience with football.
Catching it effortlessly with his foot, Kaiser smirked. "Not bad for someone who doesn't know how to play," he remarked.
You werenât sure if he was being genuine or just mocking you. "Thanks," you mumbled quietly, watching as he shuffled the ball between his feet.
He suddenly paused, then said something that caught you off guard. "Play with me."
You raised an eyebrow. "But I told you, I donât really know how to play."
"I'll teach you," he responded almost instantly, his tone carrying a hint of urgency. There was a longing in his voice, and you could understand why. It had clearly been a while since he'd had anyone to play with.
Kaiser was always alone. The other kids avoided him, seeing him as an oddball because of his scruffy clothes, unkempt hair, and the bruises that covered himâmarks left by his father. They treated him like an outcast, believing there was something wrong with him.
While they ignored him, Kaiser watched from a distance, wishing he could join in, longing for the kind of companionship they took for granted.
He would often imagine himself in the place of one of the other kids, letting his mind create a vivid scene of joining in and having fun. It was as if his consciousness played alongside them while his real body stayed behind, observing from a distance.
But now, he had a real chance to play with someone, no longer just imagining the experience.
Kaiser began teaching you everything he knew about football. You didnât become an instant expert, but you quickly gained a better understanding of the sport. It started simply, with the two of you passing the ball back and forth while he explained the basics. Gradually, he introduced more advanced moves, each one more challenging than the last.
Before long, you had learned almost everything he had to teach, and Kaiser was genuinely pleased. Finally, he had someone to share the game withâa real companion, not just a daydream.
Day after day, whenever your father was busy with work, you met up with Kaiser. The two of you would play quick soccer matches, though Kaiser usually came out on top. It didnât matter to him who won; having someone to share his favorite pastime with was all he had ever wanted as of right now.
You found yourself enjoying his company too. Since moving here, you hadnât had anyone to talk to, spending most of your free time wandering aimlessly through unfamiliar places. Meeting Kaiser changed that. He had become an important part of your life, and you could tell that he felt the same.
The time you spent together brought you happiness, and the bond you shared grew stronger with each passing day. But then, a few years later, everything began to change.
âŚđĽâŚ
Kaiser was well aware of his growing feelings for you. He wasnât oblivious; he knew all too well the risks of letting them show. But that didn't stop them from deepening. It only made it harder to ignore.
After years of hard work, he finally secured a spot on Bastard MĂźnchenâs football teamâa dream realized, and you had been there through it all. You were always by his side, ready to support him whenever he needed it. You were the person he could lean on, and that meant everything to him.
Over time, he came to depend on you. There were days when it felt like you were the only one who truly understood him, when he found himself seeking you out for solace. Your presence brought him a sense of calm that no one else could.
He began to rely on you.
It was inevitable, really. Being around someone as steadfast and caring as you, his feelings naturally began to shift and grow into something more.
He started to notice the way his gaze lingered on you whenever you spoke, how his cheeks would flush at the sight of your smile. He noticed how much weight your words carried with him, how the sun seemed to light up your skin in a way that drew him in. He couldnât ignore the warmth that bloomed inside him just from seeing you.
He began to notice everything. And as much as he loved these feelings, he hated them just as much.
This was exactly what he was afraid ofâthis so-called "love" that threatened to unravel him. The thought of being vulnerable, of exposing that side of himself, terrified him. As his reputation as the "Emperor" grew, so did his fear of appearing weak.
His skills, his ego, and youâthey had all shaped who he was and brought him to this point. He couldnât afford to risk that. It was only natural that he didnât want to gamble away everything he had worked for. Throwing it all away over a feeling seemed like the height of foolishness.
But was all the arguing and shared anger really worth it?
No, not at all.
âŚ
"Y/n, is it really that hard for you to just listen to me?â
"But why� Why now?"
The look Kaiser gave you was unfamiliar, his eyes now cold and distant. It was a side of him you had never seen before.
How did it come to this?
âŚ
In the past few days, something had changed in him. The warmth that once lit up his face whenever he saw you had vanished, replaced by a faint scowl. The way he looked at you nowâlike you were just another bothersome fanâstung in a way you couldnât understand. Sometimes he would just ignore your presence entirely, leaving you in silence.
"Y/n, I won't say it again. Please, for once, just listen and go. I donât want to see you right now."
"But Michael! You still haven't told me why!" The desperation in your voice hung in the air, unanswered.
But It was as if Kaiser had just⌠snapped. Was it your endless questions? Your desperate pleas? Or maybe it was the look in your eyes each time he tried to brush you off.
"You want the truth, Y/n? Fine. Just looking at you makes me sick!"
His words hit like a punch to the gut, leaving you breathless. What did he mean? Had he always felt this way? If so, for how long? Were you too much for him?
A storm of thoughts swirled in your mind, each one cutting deeper than the last, as you felt the sting of tears welling up.
"Michael⌠what�" you whispered, your voice trembling and barely audible.
"You make me feel sick, Y/n. Nauseous." His tone was sharp, laced with irritation, as if the very act of saying it exhausted him.
A couple of tears managed to form in your eye sockets as you quietly murmured, âMichaelâŚbut why? Why do I make you feel like this? Was it something I did..ââ
Kaiser clenched his jaw, frustration and bitterness seething beneath his words. How could you be so clueless?
âYes, Y/N, you did do somethingâno, you did everything!â he burst out. âEvery time you smile, I canât look away. Your stupid hair falls just right and itâs distracting. Your annoying voiceâit calms me, like some kind of spell. And your eyes, the way they look at me⌠I feel sick because of the warmth you put in my stomach. I hate that I look forward to your presence, that youâre all I think about, that Iâve developed these feelings for youâI hate it all!â His fists tightened, a mix of embarrassment and anger rising to his face.
Your eyes widened. Was this a confession? Were these compliments or just veiled insults? What was he trying to say?
You stared at him, speechless, before managing to whisper, âMichael⌠you⌠you have feelings for me?â
Kaiser glanced away, reluctant to admit it. But there was no denying itâthis was, in its own way, almost a confession.
Mind you, Almost, a confession.
"I wish I didnât." His voice was low, almost resigned, and you couldn't help the frown that tugged at your lips. Why would he want to bury something as powerful as this? It didnât make sense.
"Michael⌠" you spoke, your voice barely a whisper. "Why would you wish these feelings away? I⌠I could feel the same way about you, you knowâŚ"
He shook his head slowly, as if each movement was a struggle. When he spoke, his tone was firm but tinged with something that resembled sorrow. "It doesn't matter, Y/n. Even if you do, I can't accept it. I canât accept us."
His words hit you like a cold gust of wind. "You mean⌠you wouldn't be able to return my feelings?" Your chest tightened as you forced out the question, though deep down, you already knew the answer.
Michael's silence was answer enough, but still, you couldnât let it end there. "Well," you began, the words stumbling out before you could stop them, "I guess thatâs just too bad because⌠I really do have feelings for you." Your voice wavered slightly, betraying how hard it was to admit, but the truth had taken root too deeply to be ignored.
You had begun to realize it months ago, maybe even longer. The symptoms of love crept in slowly, almost imperceptibly at firstâthe way his presence made you feel more alive, the longing to hear his voice even when he wasnât around, the flutter in your chest with every small gesture. Now, standing in front of him, all those little moments coalesced into something undeniable. Yet, here you were, offering your heart to someone who refused to hold it.
You found yourself looking forward to every visit with him, craving the moments you could be near. Even though you saw each other regularly, it never felt like enough. You often caught yourself inventing excuses just to stay a little longer, clinging to each second as if it might be your last chance to be close.
Your gaze drifted toward him, hoping to catch his eye and find some sign of understanding there. But instead of meeting your gaze, he looked away, his expression guarded.
"As I said before, Y/n, I can't," he repeated, his voice steady but distant.
Frustration surged within you, a knot tightening in your chest. Why couldnât he just explain? Why was he so determined to keep you at arm's length? "Michael, for heavenâs sake, just tell me why!" you demanded, your voice rising with a mix of irritation and desperation. "Why canât you? We could figure this out⌠it doesnât have to be this way."
You were exhaustedâtired of the same vague answer, the same unyielding response. "I canât" wasnât good enough anymore. You needed the truth, a real reason to justify the wall he kept building between you.
Kaiser noticed the edge in your voice, and frustration flared in his eyes as he responded, his tone sharper than before. "Because I can't risk everything Iâve worked so hard for, Y/n! Iâve fought so hard to get where I am now, and I can't afford any distractionsânot even love."
Distraction?
You blinked, his words hitting you like a slap. He thought thisâwhatever was between youâwas just a distraction?
"H-huh�" you breathed, the word barely audible as it slipped from your lips.
Kaiser tilted his head back, a bitter sigh escaping him as his jaw clenched in obvious irritation. "Did you not understand what I just said?" His voice dripped with exasperation, as though explaining himself was an exhausting chore.
You felt your brows draw together in a scowl, his words twisting in your mind. Of course, you heard him loud and clear, but all you could focus on was how cruel and dismissive he sounded. This whole "distraction" excuse felt like nothing but bullshitâa convenient shield to hide behind, rather than an honest reason.
"Is that what I am to you?" you said, your voice quivering with anger. It seems as if this was just another excuse of his.
His answer left you both hurt and furious, a bitter mix of emotions twisting inside you. Sure, you finally got the explanation youâd been pushing for, but this? This was what he had to say?
"Love⌠a distraction?" you echoed, your voice strained as you struggled to keep your composure. "Michael, are you serious right now?" You could barely recognize the man standing before you; this wasnât the Michael Kaiser you thought you knew.
"Do I look like I'm making this up, Y/n?" he shot back, his tone icy and unyielding. "I canât let anything interfere. I've worked too hard for what I have, and I won't risk losing it all just to chase after some fantasy. I canât afford to be blinded by âlove.â I canât afford to be weak. Not now." He took a step closer, his gaze piercing into yours.
You stared into those familiar blue eyesâeyes that once looked at you with warmth and admiration. Now, they were cold and hollow, carrying only frustration and something far more unsettling: emptiness. It was like staring into the eyes of a stranger, someone who had shed any trace of the person you thought you cared for.
"I want to be the best, and I canât do that with emotions weighing me down," he said, his tone harsh and unyielding. "I need a clear path, free from distractions. Do you even realize how much I stand to lose if I let the smallest thing pull my focus? I could lose everything. I could end up weak⌠and thatâs something I refuse to accept."
His words felt like a cold slap, each one slicing through you. "Iâve sacrificed so much just to get where I am today. So there it is, Y/n. I wonât let these emotions derail me. Not even for you."
A tear slipped down your cheek before you could stop it, a silent testament to the heartbreak squeezing your chest. Was this really it? Was he just going to leave you behind because you didnât fit into his perfect, distraction-free life? It felt like the ground had fallen out from beneath you.
"This is bullshit, Michael," you snapped, your voice shaking with anger. "Youâre just going to drop me like that? After everything? After all the times Iâve been there for you, stood by your side, supported you through every step of your soccer careerâthis is how you repay me? Do you even realize how messed up that is?"
Your voice rose, trembling with the frustration and betrayal burning inside you. "You canât just cut me out because I donât fit neatly into your plans. Do you even hear yourself right now?"
Anger flared in his eyes, and his voice rose, laced with frustration. "Yes, Y/n, Iâm going to leave you! Didnât you hear a word I just said? I canât risk everything Iâve worked for. Iâve come too far to let âloveâ make me weakâIâll lose it all!"
"Why canât you see that love wonât make you weak?" you cried out, your voice cracking with desperation.
"Tch. I already told youâitâs a distraction," he shot back, his tone cold and dismissive.
Each word felt like a dagger, piercing deeper as he repeated the same relentless argument, as if mocking the very idea of you. He was unyielding, his walls built so high that nothing you said could seem to reach him.
"So thatâs it, then?" you murmured, your voice trembling as tears stung your eyes. "All of it? All of thisâeven meâitâs just a distraction?"
For a split second, something in his expression wavered. The guilt in his eyes betrayed him as he saw the hurt etched across your face. But just as quickly, he masked it, his pride and stubbornness locking him in place. He stayed silent, his hand twitching as if he wanted to reach out but refused to let himself.
The truth was, when you first told him how you felt, a spark of joy had flickered inside himâsomething he hadnât felt in a long time. But now, with every pained word that left your lips, he buried that feeling deeper, forcing it down beneath the weight of his ambition. He couldnât afford to let you see it. He couldnât afford to let himself feel it.
It pained him to see you like this, knowing he was the cause. He never intended to hurt you like thisânever imagined heâd be the one to break your heart.
Of course, his ambitions meant more to him than his "best friend." That was the cruel truthâhis future outweighed everything, even you.
The silence stretched between you until you finally broke it, your voice trembling. "Is that a yes or a no, Michael? Please⌠just answer me."
His gaze softened at the sight of you, your face etched with desperation and pain. He truly felt badâguilt clawed at himâbut he couldnât let it sway him. He believed this was necessary. He believed it was for the best.
"Yes," he said quietly.
The word hit you like a blow, and your head dropped, a broken breath escaping your lips. You never thought it would come to thisânever imagined this was how the two of you would part ways.
Quiet sobs began to slip from you, growing louder with each passing second as tears streamed down your cheeks. Soon, the dam broke, and you were wailing into your hands, trying in vain to wipe away the endless flow of tears. Your heart ached with a hollow emptiness that spread through your chestâthe same emptiness that Michael once filled, now torn wide open.
It felt as though a piece of you had been ripped away. You and Michael had been through hell and back together, always supporting and lifting each other up. Now, there was a cold, hollow place in your heart where he used to be, a void that felt unbearable.
After a moment, you forced yourself to look up, only to see him walking away, the distance between you growing with every step.
"Michael⌠mein Schatz⌠come back⌠pleaseâŚ" you whispered, your voice breaking. "I can't do this without youâŚ" But he was already too far to hear, your pleas swallowed up by the empty space between you.
Kaiser kept his eyes on the ground, watching his own feet carry him further away. He didnât dare look back. "Goodbye, meine LiebeâŚ" he murmured softly, the words escaping like a breath.
a/n: so I actually kinda took my time with this so I hope its better đ

maybe if you loved me ⥠c.sainz
part two ⥠masterlist
F1CHAI the summer vacation not only brings dramatic shifts and shuffles among the current lineup, it also brings forth a new *rumored* couple. after a previous relationship that was rife with confusion and so much controversy, y/n has rose to the trends, this time, with daniel ricciardo headlining the event. their similar posts have sparked discussions all through out the interweb, prompting fans to speculate that they have spent their break together.
"haagen or ben and jerry's?" daniel hollers from the kitchen, and you raised your head to shout back, "both!"
you focused on the task at hand, picking the perfect movie or series to binge while munching on the junk food spread on the table. it was covered with all the essentials for a night in; chocolates, popcorn, fries and nuggets. you were wrapped in the fluffiest of blankets, and the felt the most comfortable you've ever been in a while.
daniel sat himself on your side, grabbing the other end of the blanket and getting cosy himself. you murmured a quiet thanks when he handed you the icey treat, leaning into him when he kissed your head with a welcome in return.
the aussie raises an eyebrow to his phone, seeing notifications flash after the other and feeling it hot under his touch. he chuckles, showing the barrage of mentions and messages he's recieved, "see, i'm not totally sure but i think they're saying we're on a holiday. together."
"me with daniel ricciardo?" you gasp for added effect, "i couldn't possibly."
"i know, where could they have gotten it from?" he sighs dramatically. "i'm woefully alone."
"and i'm utterly heartbroken," you touched your chest with a fake pout, "on a soul searching rendezvous."
"we're a bit pathetic." he tilts his head, a grin forming on his face. "but in-a-totally-chill way." you giggle.
"it's nice to be sad and pathetic together, though." he nods his head with a laugh, "ditto." you toast your respective icecream cups.
you both settle into comfortable silence, watching the generic comedy film playing on the television. daniel's arms felt comfortable around you, and you naturally fell into his embrace... he felt safe, and warm.
"thanks for being a friend dani." you mumble, on the prepice of sleep.
"... someday.." you were too incoherent to understand what he said in reply, only faintly registering his lips on the top of your head.

warnings: some fluff, roman being possessive/borderline stalkerish, and smut
Itâs just a date. Just a low, non-commitment type of date.Â
At least, thatâs what Solana keeps trying to tell herself. Keeps trying to remind herself. Keyword being trying, because of course, she decided to go the route of self-sabotage and self-harm by keying in Rhea on just whatâs been going on, and more specifically, who sheâs going on said date with.
âAre you out of your fawking mind?â Solana sighs while Kayden does her eyeshadow for her.Â
The shorter woman snorts, working to blend in the crease color. âWell, that went as expected."
âIs this a joke? It has to be a joke?â She walks over to the two women, her tall presence alone demanding their attention. âPlease tell me this is a joke.â
Kayden bites on her lip. âIâI donât think itâs a joke.â
Solana sighs. âRheaââ
âSola.â Nothing about her voice indicates anything about what sheâs about to say is going to be nice. âYou canât do this.â
âItâs just a date, Rhea.â
âYeah, with Roman fawking Reigns.â Solana winces at the disgust imbued in his name. âHeâs a sociopath. Why the hell would you even want to go out with someone like that?â
âHeâs notâŚ.â Solana stops, unsure of how to word it. âI think thereâs more to him than people realize.â
âYeah, more evil,â Rhea harshly rebuffs. âWhatever you think you see in him, I promise, is an act. If heâs being nice to you, itâs only because he wants to fuck you.â
Another wince from Solana as Rhea more or less reiterates what Kayden first hypothesized when Solana confided in her best friend about the man.Â
âMaybe. Maybe not.â Kayden speaks up, turning to Rhea. âRegardless of how we may feel, Solana is a grown woman. She can make her own decisions.â
âThis isnât a decision. Itâs a big ass mistake.â Rheaâs gazes soften for the first time, her tone almost pleading. âSolana, please donât do this. Youâre one of my best friends. I donât want to see you get hurt, and Roman Reigns is the exact kind of person who would hurt you.â
Itâs strange. Just a month ago, Solana would 100% agree. Would not even be in this situation, because she would have found a way to cut Roman off, get away from him, even if it meant leaving town for a little while.
But, that was before she got to know him. Well, as much as one can get to know a mafia head who seems insistent on making her his, not excluding breaking into her home to ask her out on a date.
Solana is especially happy she decided to leave that part out of the story.
âItâs just a date,â is the final answer she settles on, not missing the disappointment in Rheaâs pretty blue eyes. âI promise, Iâll be careful.â
Itâs definitely not the answer her friend was looking for, and Rhea doesnât hesitate to make her disagreement known. As well as her boundaries.
âWell, I donât want him here. This is your home, but itâs ours too,â she gestures between herself and Kayden. âAnd if you want to play with fire, I donât want the flames anywhere near us.â
Itâs a bit hurtful but fair. Solana nods. âI understand.â
She canât allow herself to think about how the flames have already entered their humble abode, partially because of Romanâs lack of boundaries, but mostly because sheâs continued to allow the lack of said boundaries.
Rheaâs gaze is assessing. âYour family doesnât know, do they?â Intended as a question. Comes out as a statement.
Solanaâs answer is quiet. âNo.âÂ
Another pointed look. âI wonder why that is.â
âOkay,â Kayden cuts in, nervous chuckling a contrast to the tension building. âObviously, we donât necessarily agree with Solanaâs actions, but again, we listen and we donât judge.âÂ
Rhea scoffs. âSpeak for your fucking self.â She kicks off the door, turning to leave when Solana calls her name. A blown out breath followed by her turning around. âYeah?â
It feels wrong to ask, but Solana doesnât have much of a choice. âPleaseâŚ..please donât say anything to anyone.â
A small smile sets on Rheaâs face, but thereâs nothing friendly about it. âYou know, Sola, the fact that you even have to ask me that should tell you how fucked up this is.â The smile is wiped away, replaced with the disappointment. âDonât worry. I have zero desire to tell anyone about this.â
â------
âYou wanted to see me?â
Roman lifts his eyes from the contracts laid out in front of him. Right away, he can see his sister is annoyed. Unsurprising. Rosalia looks and is irritable on a daily basis, but considering her activewear, heâd bet sheâs even more irked with him because heâs interrupted her training.
Slamming the door behind her, she walks in and props down on the sofa closest to said door. âIt better be worth my fucking time, too.â
Her comment doesnât bother him. Roman sits back in the chair, responding in a calm but steel voice, âIâm gonna right to the chase.â
She glares. âAs you should.â
Romanâs smile is small and wry. âYouâre interfering in my personal business, Rosie.â The smile is dropped. âYou know I donât like that shit.â
Rolling her eyes, his twin couldnât be more unbothered. âYou mind telling me what the fuck youâre talking about? Not that I care, butââ
âI know you said something to Solana,â he interrupts, gaze cutting. âSomething that upset her.â Something that made her try to push him away, and thatâs the part that really pisses him off.Â
His words seem to trigger something for his sister. âThat little girl from the fight?â She scoffs, shaking her head. âSheâs even more sensitive than I thought.â
âWhat did you say to her?â
âNothing that wasnât the truth.â Rosaliaâs response is nonchalant as she casually admires her nails. âJust reminded her that she isnât any different than your other hoesââ
Roman looks away, rolling his neck, doing his best to remind himself that Rosalia is his sister. Sheâs family. His response to her canât be like it would to anyone else in this moment, where heâd already have pulled out his gun and lodged a bullet in their head.
He has to beâŚ..mindful.
Running his hand through his beard, Roman manages a curt response. âDo me and yourself a favor, and stop fucking talking.â Because the more she does, the harder it will be to control his brewing temper. âStay the fuck away from Solana.â
If he didnât have her attention before, he most definitely has it now. âExcuse me? I donât give a fuck about any of your little whoresââ
He slams his fist on the desk, unable to taper his temper. âCall her out her name one more fucking time, Rosalia.â
His twin, however, is unbothered. Her eyes narrowing, assessing, studying. âCareful, brother, your feelings are showing.â Roman says nothing as his sister leans forward, head tilted. âYou actually like this girl, donât you?â
He doesnât look away, but he doesnât answer the question, either. âAs I said, my personal life is none of your fucking business.âÂ
Not answering the question is a bit of a necessity, because he doesnât really know how to answer it. Saying he likes Solana feels a bit too much. Heâs intrigued by her, massively so, intensely attracted to her and fantasizes about the day he can fuck her senseless. However, all of that can be true along with the fact that he doesnât actually care about or like her.
Again, itâs just the intrigue of it all. Sheâs the first of many, many, women heâs entertained over the years that hasnât fallen at his feet. Who he is, the power he holds, and the wealth he possesses doesnât make her bat an eye. None of that means anything to her. In fact, sheâs most definitely the first woman heâs had to pursue in his over thirty years on this earth, and while that may seem irksome and not worth it for most women, Solana is different. He doesnât know how, but it and she just is. Hence him needing to put his sister in her place before she fucks up just whatever this is.
âAnd I as I told you, I donât give a fuck about your personal life and who you decide to fuck. She was just there, and I told her the truth. Not my fault she couldnât fucking handle it.â
âRosalia.â He closes his eyes, that damn temptation to snap on her at an all time high. Heâd never hit his sister, not unless they were training together, but he certainly isnât above cussing her ass out and screaming at her. Right or not. âIâm only going to say it once. Leave Solana alone.â
His twin matches, meets, and maintains the stare-off. Sibling against sibling. Alpha vs Alpha. Naturally, she is the first to walk away, not back down. Never that. Just recognizes it isnât worth it.
âWhatever.â She dismisses, standing up, hands on her hip. âAnything else you need to waste my time with?â She doesnât wait for a reply, turning on her heel. âDidnât think so.â
Anyone else would receive a much different response, especially as his sister slams the door, but as already stated, this is his sister. Rosalia drives him insane, but he loves her. Itâs always been the two of them, and it always will be. Immediate family, at least. He just needed to establish some boundaries with her, and thatâs been done. Should she decide to test them and test him, well, heâll cross that bridge if and when they get there.
He doesnât have time to focus on that.Â
Heâs got a date tonight to focus on.Â
â--------
âOh my goshâŚ..â
Solana has been on her fair share of dates. Most of which take place at a restaurant, from regular ole Red Lobster to restaurants with names so foreign and fancy that she canât pronounce. Though the latter only happened once, and it was a disaster, resulting in her sneaking out halfway through the date.
But this, standing on the dock in front of the most stunning yacht sheâs ever seen, she's certain that this takes the cake.
Solana is prompted by security to move so they can escort her onto said yacht, and she's so consumed by taking in everything majestic around her that she ends up completely oblivious to when sheâs taken directly in front of the man himself.
Roman
Heâs dressed appropriately given the setting and weather. Nice, short sleeved beige shirt with khaki shorts and matching shoes. Expensive watch on his wrist. Gold chain around his neck. Smoldering gaze on her, drinking her in from the bottom of her heels to the top of her head where her hair is pulled up in a nice updo.
He licks his lips. âGotta admit, I was hoping youâd wear red.â
She refuses to tell him she considered it. âIâI like pink.â
He makes a sound and offers his hand. Solana takes a second to accept it, gasping quietly when he tugs her closer. âI like it.â His eyes flicker with something. âI think Iâd like you better in nothing instead though.â
Solana tenses, hating the way sheâs hit with something other than discomfort and is immensely grateful when he smiles. âRelax, sweetheart.â He starts to guide her behind him to where she realizes a table is set up for them, a romantic, beautiful dinner. âIâm a man of my word.â Solana tries not to think too much of him pulling out her chair for her. âI said no touching.â
Damn.
Embarrassment fills her at such a betraying thought, because why should she feel disappointed at that?Â
Roman sits across from her, staring almost. âGod, you are breathtaking.â
Itâs hard not to look away when God Himself bestows such a compliment. âThank you.â And she means it, something warm and almost comforting brewing in her belly, replacing the abundance of nerves. âYouâyou look handsome.â
He always looks handsome though.Â
And judging by the smirk on his face, he knows it. âThank you.â His gaze is studying, as he admits, âI wasnât sure youâd come.â
Curious, she asks, âwhat would have happened if I didnât?â
His smile is cheeky. âI think you already know the answer to that.â
She does. Solana knows this man would welcome himself into her home once more. Into her bedroom. And potentially, into her.
Thus, her showing up tonight truly was for the best, and the more she sits across from him, dialogue easy amongst them, something tells it was also the right thing to do.
Solana glances around, suddenly unnerved by him looking at her so much. Itâs equally unsettling as it is flattering. âThis is beautiful. Youâyou rented it out for us for tonight?â
He smiles again, but itâs more amusing than anything. âI own it.â
Her eyes widen. âYou own it?â
âBought it for tonight,â he answers, making her eyes widen even more as he reaches for the bottle of wine, popping it open and starting to pour some in her glass followed by his.
âWait, you bought a yacht for our date?â Even saying it aloud sounds ludicrous. âAn actual yacht?â
âPretty sure I answered that already.â
âRoman, thatâsâŚ..â She trails off, unsure just what to say and make of that. âWeâwe could have went to a restaurant or something.â Solana would have preferred that over him spending an obscene amount of money for just one night.
He shrugs. âYou said you wanted something private.â
âRestaurants have private rooms, Roman.â
His voice is dangerously calm and smooth. âBut not a private bedroom.â
Oh, Jesus.
Solana shifts in her chair, looking away as he chuckles. âAre you always this wound up?â
âIâm not wound upâ she replies, feeling an unfamiliar amount of defensiveness. âItâs justâŚ.youâre very bold.â And, you donât take no for an answer.
âI see something I want, and I go for it.â Is his simple reply as he picks invisible lint off his shirt. âThatâs extended to people as well.âÂ
Solana doesnât doubt that one bit.
Eager for a changing of subjects, sheâs about to inquire about when the waiterâor whomeverâwill arrive when he takes her for yet another loop. âSo, I was looking at your Instagramââ
âMy Instagram?â She doesnât mean to interrupt, but itâs hard not to. âHâhow?â A valid question considering her page is private, and itâs been a couple weeks since she accepted any follow requests.
âI told you already. When I want something, I get it.â His answer objectively makes no sense but somehow answers her question. âI didnât read your bio. Just looked at your pictures.â
Swallowing, she finds herself asking, curious almost, âand?â
His brow lifts, matching her curiosity. âAnd?â
Unsure why she's suddenly so nervous, Solana clears her throat, asking, âwhat did you think?â
The delay with his answer is the farthest thing from helpful with her anxiety. âI think thereâs a lot more to you, Solana Miller, than I initially realized.â
Another almost vague answer that has her sitting forward in her seat, asking almost desperately, âisâis that a good or bad thing?â
The smile returns, and for the first time tonight, it doesnât seem or even feel like thereâs something underneath it. Just a genuine, authentic smile.Â
âTell me the more, and Iâll let you know.â
Solana chews on the inside of her cheek, not wanting to mess up her lipstick by biting down on her bottom lip. "What do you want to know?"Â
His answer is instantaneous this round. "Everything."
Itâs such a broad response, and off the top of her head, Solana is struggling to recall her posts. Sheâs shared photos of herself, obviously. Photos with friends and family. Photos of her bookstore and hobbies that include cooking, books, bible journaling, and even her horse, Rainbow.Â
But, all of that seems too much to dump on a man for the first date.
Maybe the last.
Thus, her settling on sticking with the major things.Â
"There's not much to me,â she answers with a shrug, taking a sip of her champagne before continuing. âI'm....I'm an RN, but I've been on sabbatical for almost two years now. Iâ" There's a type of sadness that bleeds into her voice. "I was working in the ER, but the things I saw...." She shakes her head. "I just needed a break, needed to not be surrounded by so much death.â An honest, truthful, almost vulnerable thing sheâs grateful Roman doesnât press her on despite the absolute intrigue in his expression as she shares pieces of herself.Â
A small smile falling on her face, she continues. âI've always found an escape in books and writing. Another passion I share with my mom, and we opened the bookstore and that....that's been it."
Sheâs not sure what she expected him to follow up with, but his question certainly isnât it. "Does she work there with you?"
Ignoring the almost warmth that fills her at such an innocent, kind question, Solana shakes her head, "No, she's a cardiologist over at Central hospital." For whatever reason, even though he most definitely did not ask, Solana finds herself providing additional, unasked information, "she was a nurse back in Mexico, but when she married my dad and moved to the states, she went back to school and got her MD."
He sits forward, elbows on the table. "Did you ever want to do the same? Be a doctor?"
"I did, but...." Solana leans back in her seat, shrugging. "I was a gifted kid. I did all honors classes and a running start program, so when I graduated at 18, I already had my associates and was only in undergrad for 2 years. Did an accelerated program to get my RN, and by 20, I just felt burnt out from it all. I needed a break from school. Then I needed a break from nursing, and now I'm just....trying to enjoy the quiet."
An ironic thing considering there's nothing quiet about the man sitting across from her.Â
Itâs what causes her to ask, voice soft, "Roman....what do you want from me?"Â
Because this canât keep going on without her knowing just where theyâre going. She needs some guidance, some insight into where his head is. Outside of the sexual aspect of this all.Â
That part is very clear.
Roman seems to really sit and mull over her question, his handsome face shifting into something serious and genuine. "Not sure, but I'm intrigued by you, and that doesn't happen. Ever. So, I want to see where this goes."
Itâs an answer, so she can respect that much. But, the fact that specificity is lacking in his response bothers her. What about her intrigues him? Is it the fact that heâs been able to initiate some type of intimacy both times theyâve been alone? Does she seem easy to him? Because, if thatâs the case, the line in the sand needs to be drawn here and now.Â
âRoman.â Solana is the one to take her time in figuring just how to word this. "You should know that IâI meant it when I said I'm not like that. I don'tâI don't sleep around." Or at all, but he doesn't need to know that. Something tells her Roman knowing she's a virgin will only increase whatever interest he has in her. And, not in a good way. "I don'tââ
His response arrives right away. âI know you donât, and if that was what I was wanting, I wouldnât be sitting here right now.â Something tells her heâs being honest. If actual, full on sex is what he was after, he certainly wouldnât be with her right now.
And itâs his honesty that creates that bridge for her. âRoman, I know weâveâŚ.done things.â More him doing all the things to her. âBut, I mean it. IâI donât want to have sex with you.â And before he can press her, inquire just what and why, she explains, âsex means something to me. Itâs not just a thing you do. Itâs a bond and connection, and I only want that with someone I have a bond and connection with.â And, I donât with you.Â
Might not ever.
âIâm fine withâŚ.other things.â She doesnât feel the need to elaborate on that. He should know exactly what the âother thingsâ are. âButâŚ.penetration is where I draw the line.â And just where the next quiet part comes from, she hasnât the slightest clue. But, she says it, and she says it loud enough for him to hear, whether intentional or not. âFor now.â
Itâs a stupid additive. One that makes his brow lift and Solana swallow. If she didnât give up her virginity to her fiancĂŠ of all people, what chance does Roman have? It doesnât even make any sense. Heâs the last person she can see herself going that far with.
âFor nowâŚ.â And of course he settles on that part. Solana hates herself right about now. âI donât really agree with you. On sex, I mean. We clearly have very different views on that, but regardless, I respect it. I will respect it.â
Oh.
ThatâŚ.thatâs not exactly what she was expecting.Â
At all.
âSo whatâŚwhat does that mean?â
Because now sheâs even more confused than before. Because she was convinced the minute she made it clear she has no intentions on sleeping with Roman tonight, or any other night, heâd shut the shit down. Would pull away.Â
Thatâs clearly not what's happening though.Â
Romanâs answer is clear, concise, and assertive. âIt means that doesnât change what I said earlier.â He reaches his hand across the table, turning hers over, fingers tracing her palm. âIâm still intrigued and still want to see where this goes.â
Solana is quiet, sitting on each word that leaves his mouth, trying her best to process it. All of it.
What the hell is even going on? How did she end up in this position? Roman represents everything she hates about the world she was born into. People like him are the reason sheâs done her best to stay away and keep her distance.Â
And now, as Rhea pointed out, sheâs playing with the fire God himself.
Yet thereâs been zero effort on her part to extinguish the flames.
Even as they threaten to lap and consume her.
â--------
For all intents and purposes, dinner is enjoyable and not just the meal itself. Conversation between herself and the Head of the Table is normal, casual, their banter almost something natural and organic.Â
And she finds herself just as interested in him as he is in her. Finds herself asking more questions about him, wanting to know more about the man who seems to not exactly be what she always thought him to be.Â
Like the fact that he can cook. Or rather, claims that he can. Or that he makes an effort every Sunday to watch football with his cousins, his âbest friendsâ as he calls them. Or even his interest in photography he shares with her, even a couple photos from his phone.
And with each tidbit shared, the normalization deepens. Roman feels less and less like a thing and more and more like a person.
The staff have just cleared the tables, Solana wiping her mouth when he asks, âwhere do you want to go for the next date?â
For the twentieth time tonight, sheâs taken off guard. âNext date?â The small smile on her face betrays her as she teases him almost, âwho said I agreed to one?â
Roman chuckles, once again reaching for her hand, holding it this time. âYou did the second you stepped foot on this boat.â Her stomach drops, chest tightening for reasons unknown. âAgreed to this.â
Her heartbeat is in the danger zone as she asks in a low voice, âand what is this?â
He doesnât skip a beat or take his eyes off her, answering so confidently, âus.â
Us
Solana is a mess. What the hell has she gotten herself into?
Shifting, she moves into a new space of trying to set more ground rules with the man who has her questioning almost everything she thought she knew about herself. âRoman, thereâs noââ
âCome here.âÂ
Two words. So simple. Also challenging.
âRomanâŚ.â
He sits back in his chair, legs spreading just enough. âSolana, come here.â
Here would be his lap. Here would be a place that she absolutely should not be. But, itâs also the exact place she finds herself moving towards. Barely in front of him, Roman doesnât hesitate to yank her down on his lap. Sheâs sideways, face angled down at him, hands on his shoulders.Â
"Let me help you understand." Romanâs fingers dance up the spine of her back, adjusting her position on his lap, Solana having to ignore the sizable bulge underneath pressing into her ass.Â
Why is he hard?
An unspoken question thatâs drowned out by the alluring sound of his deep voice. "You're with me now. That means if someone looks at you, I'll kill them." His hand eventually moves to the side of her breast, applying just the lightest pressure, but enough to have her squeezing his thigh. "If they breathe too hard around you, I'll kill them." Solana has to bite on her bottom lip to retain what's bound to be a moan when he slides his hand to the front of her body, fingertips massaging her exposed skin through the cutouts of her skimpy dress. "And if they try to fucking touch you, they'll wish I had killed them when all is said and done."Â
Completely stunned, she isnât sure how to respond to that. Isn't sure what to say. Her response is truly something that spills out her mouthâŚ.âyouâre crazy.â
Roman, however, just chuckles. âIâve been called much worse, sweetheart.â He then sits up a bit, her eyes closing as he ghosts his lips over her shoulder. âRegardless, you still came tonight, stayed, and now youâre sitting on my lap. You know why?â Solana gasps when he moves his hand between her legs. âBecause you like this shit. You like how I make you feel. All flustered and discombobulated.â She swallows, and he hums against her, asking, âwanna know how I know?â He easily slides his fingers past her soaked panties, grazing her wet pussy lips and lifting his hand to show her the proof of her body betraying her.Â
Roman presents the undeniable evidence. âThis is how.â And if the situation wasnât already erotic enough, Solana can barely contain herself on his lap when he sticks his fingers in his mouth, sucking each off.
Her stomach is caving and twisting and doing all sorts of things. âRomanâŚâÂ
This. All of this is the exact reason why Solana has wanted to stay far away from this life. Has wanted nothing to do with the mafia world. The violence. The carnage. The mayhem. And yet, her thighs press together at Roman's oath and his carnal act for reasons she can't decipher.
His gaze drops to her legs, and she curses inwardly. Once again, her reaction to him is out and in the open.Â
Roman smirks. "You're touch deprived...." His assessment is embarrassingly accurate. It's gross how Roman's inherently innocent touches seem to evoke more from her than her hand ever could. "I can't wait to fix that."
Solana swallows and taps into some deep rooted assertiveness as she asks, "what about you?"
Roman continues to lightly touch her through her dress. "What about me?"
Her stomach is doing all kinds of weird things, and her head clearly is several miles behind, because there's no logical basis for what comes out of her mouth next. "Ifâif I can't be with anyone else, then...then neither can you."Â
His eyes flicker with something akin to disapproval. âI can't fuck you, but you donât want me fucking anyone else?â He makes a sound, finger moving circles around her thigh. âDoesnât seem very fair now, does it?â
On one hand it doesnât, but on the other, it makes sense to her. âYou sayâŚyou say you want to get to know me, to see where this goes, well thatâsâŚ.thatâs my stipulation.â The only one sheâs really set throughout this whole thing that probably shouldnât even be a thing in the first place.Â
Roman is quiet for another good minute, finally answering. âFine.â Itâs painfully obvious heâs not excited about this caveat, but he agrees, nonetheless. âBut, I meant what I said.â His voice and gaze darken again. âNo one touches you but me.â His hand lifts to her neck, grasping just enough to evoke a gasp but not enough to restrict breathing. âIs that understood?â
Solanaâs gaze is locked with his as she licks her lips, answering breathlessly, âyes.â
And just like that, the darkness settles into something easy. âGood,â he says it so simply, so casually, hand dropping from her neck.
Solana just looks at him.Â
It should be unsettling to her, at least a little, how easily he maneuvers between calm and charismatic and dark and intimidating.Â
But, it doesnât.
It does a bit of the opposite.
Lord, what the hell is she getting herself into?Â
â-----------
After some coaxing, additional foreplay, and the reiteration of no penetration, Solana finds herself following Roman deeper into the yacht, headed toward the bedroom. The travel there is a nice distraction, Solana continuing to marvel at the luxury of it all. She wasnât exactly raised poor, but this level of opulence is unfamiliar. But, something she most definitely could get used to.Â
Itâs still up in the air if itâs something she should get used to though.Â
Finally arriving, Roman closes the door behind them and walks past her. Solana's eyes never leave him, especially when he starts to unbutton his shirt, discarding it to a nearby chair.Â
Her cheeks are warm and reddened watching him move onto the bed, sitting back against the headboard, legs spread just enough. Sheâs ready to remind him of her boundaries when he motions for her with his index finger. âCome here.â
Her chest tightens. âRomanâŚ..â
He makes a sound. âI thought I told you I donât like repeating myself.â He did. He most certainly did. âCome here.â
Solana swallows, partially unsure why she canât stand her ground, canât comprehend what causes her to pull her dress up her thighs just enough so she can crawl on the bed, over to him. Her heart races even more when he grabs her, positions her between his legs, back against his firm chest.Â
His lips hover against her temple. âGood girl.â
Her eyes shut, that racing heart of hers nearing dangerous territories. âRoman, whâwhatââ
âTouch yourself.â
Solanaâs eyes shoot open.Â
What did he just say?
And, she goes to express as such, âwhat do youââ
He moves his hands to her dress, dragging it up higher until her black thong is exposed. âI want you to show me how you touched yourself when I left that night.â
Immediate goosebumps sprout all over her damn body, her mouth dry, her brain struggling to process all of this. âRomanâŚ.â
âBecause you did, didnât you?â His taunts are accompanied by his hand slipping under the waistband of her thong, snapping it against her skin. âYou fucked yourself thinking of daddy, didnât you?â
Solana swallows, unable to answer. Horrified at just how he knows this. How he knows she most definitely laid up in her bed, using her hand and vibrator after he left her so flustered and needing a release.
Something freezes her more when an equally terrifying and erotic thought crosses her mind. Was he watching her?
âRoman, were youââ Sheâs silenced by his fingers dancing along her mons pubis, continuing to taunt and tease her, eager for compliance with his task.Â
âShhh.â His lips are moving along the perimeter of her face as he travels his hand from downward to upward, palming her breast. âToo much talking.â She chews down on her bottom lip when his thumb flicks her pebbled nipple. Damn her for forgoing a bra. âDaddyâs ready to watch.â
Itâs crazy. All of it. All of this. All of him. Solana should be running for the hills, should be seeing what resources she can utilize to disappear for a little while, just long enough for this infatuation he has with her to fizzle out.
But, thatâs not what happens. What happens is quite the opposite. Lifting her lower half, she slides her thong down her legs, lightly tossing it on the other side of the bed, thus leaving her bare and exposed.
In more ways than one.
Almost nervously, her hand travels to that special space between her legs, a small moan leaving her mouth when she realizes just how wet she already is.
Itâs not normal how aroused this man can make her with just words and light touches.Â
Three fingers gliding up her vagina evoke another moan from her and an almost grunt from the man behind her.Â
âLook how wet you are.â His voice is something of awe and intrigue, Solana moving her fingers back to her pussy, gathering more of her essence. âJust for me. Always for me.â
Her breath is ragged as she starts playing with herself, eyes closing, thinking back to that night. Thinking back to how good his fingers felt inside of her, working her in a way no man ever has.
Solana spreads her thighs, giving her more access to her swollen throbbing clit. âOh, fuckâŚ.â
âThatâs it,â he murmurs against her skin, slipping his hand into her dress, palming her breast. âWork yourself, baby. Show me how you take care of yourself when daddyâs not around.â
Solanaâs head is thrown back against his chest as she moves her fingers from her clit, to her sticky, gushy opening. In and out, she thrusts her fingers in, all the while imagining itâs someone else touching her. Someone else making her thrash and moan the way she is.Â
And that someone else is the man behind her, the man whose name she finds herself moaning, âRomanâŚ..â
âHmmm.â Stll, that damn teasing voice of his, deep, baritone, and already knowing. âWhat do you need, sweetheart? Tell Daddy what his good girl needs.â
Oh, she hates him. Hates the way her pussy flutters every time he refers to himself as daddy. How her body responds in a way that defies all logic.Â
Same as her response.Â
âTouch me.â Itâs embarrassing how needy and wanton she sounds in this moment, the way she nearly begs him, her other hand going to his thigh.Â
Solana would give anything to see whatever nonverbal response he has at this request. Something smug, no doubt. All knowing. Because thereâs no way he can be surprised at such a plea with this situation they're in, how sheâs finger fucking herself, leaned up against his chest, his big hands groping and feeling all on her titties.Â
The erotic of it all almost calls for his participation.Â
And his participation is exactly what happens.
âOh my God,â Solana nearly jumps off the bed when Romanâs hand is over hers, his thick fingers gently moving hers to the side, the pad of his thumb hovering over her clit, two other fingers dipping inside her. âShit, donât stop.â
His deep voice chuckling against her nearly rocks her to her core. âOh, I donât plan to.â
Solanaâs body moves in sync with his hand as he works her, so good, oh so good. Solana is a whimpering mess, her hand now on top of his, unable to move away, unable to do anything but sink into this all consuming hole of pleasure. âYes. Oh myâjust like that.âÂ
âLook how needy you are. Fucking my hand like this.â His voice is deep, primal, laden with passion and sensuality that matches hers. âDo you have any idea how Iâm going to ruin you?â
Yes. Yes, she absolutely does, because he already has. Just from his hand and mouth.Â
Romanâs ministrations are nearing the point of too much, Solanaâs release right around the corner, something the man bringing her to heaven is clearly very privy to.
He practically growls, asking, âyou gonna come all over daddyâs hand? Hmm?âÂ
âYes,â she whimpers, eyes clamped shut, hand moving to his wrist, squeezing when he quickens and intensifies his actions. âGod, Iâm gonnaâohhh.â Sheâs cut off by the orgasm that wrecks her body, her drenched cunt throbbing, body jerking against him, flashing, blinding white lights against her closed lids.
And minutes later, sheâs limp, slightly panting, still holding onto him, still trying to settle herself.
Never has she come as hard as the man before her makes her come. ItâsâŚ.overwhelming. In all of the right ways.
âYou donât think weâre done, do you?â
Itâs that question that makes her eyes shoot open. What did he just say?
But before Solana can process anything, Roman is moving them, switching around their positions, and itâs when he goes to lift her, she realizes just what position heâs putting them in.
Trepidation consumes her. âRoman, I canâtââ
âIâve been thinking about eating you out all day,â he groans. Solana hates how easy and natural it is for him to say and admit to the most filthiest things. âCome sit on daddyâs face, so I can suck that sweet pussy.â
And thatâs exactly what heâs doing, positioning her, hiking her dress up even higher, holding it scrunched at her waist. âRomanââ
âStop talking,â he murmurs, Solana finally straddling his face, her hands gripping the headboard. Romanâs eyes are entranced by the sight of her pussy, so wet and pretty, dripping and needing him. âCome hereâŚ.â
âRoman!â She gasps, when his strong hands tug her down, his mouth completely covering her, his tongue thrusted inside her tight hole. âOh shit.â Solanaâs head falls against her forearm thatâs across the headboard. Sheâs seen this position in porn, has heard her friends talk about it, but no one told her it felt this damn good.
And maybe itâs less the position and more the man.
Romanâs moan underneath her as he eats her out, feasting on her pussy like itâs his first meal of the day, seems to lean on the side of less the position and all the man.Â
Thereâs no concern in the world about suffocating him or too much of her weight bearing down on him when Romanâs grip on her thighs tighten as he pulls her even closer, his tongue circling around her engorged clit.
âGod, it feels so good,â she moans, one hand reaching for her breast as she plays with her nipples, grinding down on his face. âDaddyâŚ.â
Romanâs groan underneath her is loud and unmistakable along with the way his left hand moves to her ass, giving a slap that echoes through the room and evokes another moan from her.Â
Sheâs not entirely sure what stamina is required for eating pussy, at least the way Roman does, but his seems above average. Because Solana is propped up on his face so long that she feels her thighs begin to cramp and tense, resulting in her sinking down farther on him. And for a brief second, she feels bad, worries that her weight is too much. But, itâs quickly shoved to the side when he once again tugs down on her, welcoming it, welcoming and wanting her cunt to completely suffocate him.
A torture he seems to be deeply enjoying.
It takes some time, what feels like hours, hours that are filled with nothing but pleasure and ecstasy, before Solanaâs orgasm overtakes her. And once again, sheâs a whining, moaning, writhing mess, coming all over his face and in his mouth. Itâs too much, overstimulating in every sense. So much so that itâs Roman who has to carefully lift her from off his face. He moves her down so sheâs straddling his lap, her hands going to his shoulders, head in the crook of his neck as she tries to settle herself.Â
And, itâs not helped by the massive bulge she feels pressing up against her ass.
Roman kisses her temple, applauding her, âsuch a good girl for me.â She feels it, every bit of it, even if nothing about this whole thing is good. The pleasure sheâs getting out of it certainly is. âLook how you came for Daddy.â
And came she did, Solana can feel his damp beard scraping against her cheek, no doubt her essence being the cause of it. Itâs better to focus on that feeling and sensation vs the strange sense of pride and accomplishment she feels at being his good girl.
It's just all so confusing.
She doesnât know how to feel about this, about a lot of whatâs happened since meeting a certain Roman Reigns. Or the way he just holds her, the way she holds onto him despite being fully descended from her orgasmic haze.
One thingâs for certain.
If Solana is in fact dancing with the devil, right now, in this moment, her only hope is that itâs a song that doesnât end anytime soon.

Shopping Spree, Hangout Dreams AU Headcannons Part 5 | Daryl Dixon x Fem!Reader
Word count: 592.
A/n: Focusing back on them before the apocalypse for now. And the last part personally had me giggling. Kids, huh? Anyways, I hope you like this!
Specially dedicated to my biggest supporter on this au, @ddamm.
â
Daryl bought his own motorcycle shortly after the two of you moved into your final apartment.
â
He had spent years saving up for it, even hesitantly accepting any money you wanted to add to the savings for his motorcycle.
â
He was hesitant to take your money because he felt bad. He didn't want you to âwasteâ money on him, money that you could use to buy yourself something nice.
â
However, you were adamant, and your contribution to the savings helped him immensely.
â
The day he bought his own motorcycle, he was ecstatic. It wasn't anything fancy, but he loved it, and therefore, you loved it as well.
â
You'd been with him for over a decade at that point. You knew practically all the lore surrounding the motorcycling community. Daryl took great pleasure in teaching you everything he knew.
â
It made Daryl happy to know that you took interest in something he liked. He could go on for hours about motorcycles and you wouldn't mind. You'd actively ask questions and ask him to explain something you didn't understand.
â
Daryl was even teaching you how to ride one. It wasn't quite like teaching you how to ride a bicycle, like you had joked when he had suggested teaching you how to ride a motorcycle, but you got better with time.
â
Soon, you were able to ride one on your own, though you still preferred to have the professionalâDarylâride it instead with you on the back, holding on to him.
â
Going away from motorcycles for a bit, Daryl was also the one that taught you how to drive a car.
â
Merle had essentially given his truck to Daryl way back when, and the old thing surprisingly still worked years later, all the way to the start of the apocalypse.
â
That was the first thingâapart from a bicycleâyou ever learned to drive.
â
When Daryl bought his motorcycle, he basically gave you the truck to go to and from work, the supermarket, basically anywhere you wanted to go.
â
During the earlier stages before he bought the motorcycle, he'd go and pick you up from work with his truck.
â
He once picked you up a bit later than usual due to the field trip you had taken your class on, and when you had gotten off the bus to greet him with a cheek kiss, the kids all collectively commented on it, eliciting chuckles from you and your husband.
â
âEw.â
â
That's also how your class had gotten introduced to your husband. After that, they never stopped asking about him.
â
âMrs Dixon, how'd you meet Mr Dixon?â
âMrs Dixon, have you and Mr Dixon ever kissed with your mouths like my mommy and daddy?â
âMrs Dixon, do you love Mr Dixon?â
â
You had also once gotten a question from one of the kids that had you choking and blushing.
â
âMrs Dixon, do you and Mr Dixon play with your clothes off?â
â
You changed that topic of discussion very quickly. Nope, you weren't gonna teach a bunch of five year olds about sex.
â
It did make for some good comedy when you got back home. Well, for Daryl at least. When you told him about that, he couldn't stop laughing. He found the question hilarious.
â
âWell, what'd ya tell him?â
âI didn't say anything. I changed the topic.â
âYa could've said yes. We do âplay with our clothes offâ a bunch'a times.â
âDaryl, I'm not gonna say that! Do you know how many parents would be plotting my murder?â
âI know. M'jus' messin' with ya, Darlin'.â

Before
Main Masterlist Lando Masterlist
Pairing: Verstappen!female oc x Lando Norris
Warnings: None really, Fluffy(to me)
Part Summary: Before the people suspect anything, it was really what they wanted more than anything else. Wanted when life wasn't busy for either of them. Because when they first met their lives were hectic, but at least they had gotten each other out of it.
Prologue of the Wasn't Always series; prev. part & next part
Requested: NO / yes
A/N: This is essentially the prologue to the actual series and can be read as a stand-alone. There is no need to read this to understand the series.
2019 Australian Grand Prix
"Oscar, I can't be here. I'm supposed to be getting ready to leave." Kaarina said to her best friend as he basically begged her to go with him to the 2019 Australian Grand Prix.
"Come on. Please, Mom says if you go, I can." Oscar tries to convince her.
"No, she didn't. Your mom wouldn't care 'cause she knows where you are if you did go and if anything, she would be worried about you getting in the suitcase of a driver." Kaarina says with a look of suspicion on her face as she analyzes the younger boy.
"Please, you don't have to leave until Monday; it's only Friday," Oscar begged even more, and for the first showing her the passes he had gotten.
Kaarina looked at the passes and then at the excited Aussie, "Max put you up to this, didn't he?"
Oscar froze and that was all the answer that Kaarina needed as she nodded.
"Of course, he gave you passes on the condition of getting me there." It wasn't a question, but Oscar nodded.
"Fine, which team are you supporting? I'll play fake girlfriend for your real girlfriend because Max definitely only gave you two passes." Kaarina told as Lily walked into the room.
Oscar's eyes got wide as he realized the truth of the matter: he only had two passes, and Max didn't give him a third.
Lily chuckled, just hearing the end of what Kaarina said and then the look in her boyfriend's eyes and the apologetic look he got when he saw her.
"It's okay; Kaarina will take care of you; she does it any other time. I don't want to go, but you do." Lily says as she kisses Oscar's cheek and lets out a relieved sigh.
Kaarina chuckles at the two; while she is a couple years older than both of them, she is still really good friends with the two as she and Oscar met when she lived in Australia because their parents knew each other.
"You know, sometimes, I feel that it's not my best friend and my girlfriend, but my girlfriend and my girlfriend's girlfriend," Oscar says as he looks at the two in front of him.
The two just chuckle at him, making Oscar roll his eyes.
"Which team are we supporting, you teit?" Kaarina asks between the chuckles and giggles.
"McLaren." Oscar dead-pans as he looks between the two, and Kaarina nods.
Kaarina went to change out of the comfy clothes she had on just as Lily started speaking, "You know that is basically your girlfriend when I'm not around, to make sure everyone knows you're taken and mine."
"I am, but there is no need for that." Oscar points out.
"Nope, you can't convince me otherwise. Rina is the stand-in girlfriend when I'm not around. Just know that it's the same when you aren't around when we go shopping." Lily tells him before following Kaarina, and Oscar just looks after his girlfriend in confusion.
"So what was it my brother told you that you agreed to force me along to the race? Because I know it wasn't just the passes," Kaarina says as she walks next to Oscar in the paddock area, making their way around.
"He told me I could support any team; it didn't have to be Red Bull," Oscar said, then he looked over to his best friend, who had a very unimpressed look on her face, knowing that it was more than just that. "He also said he would get me to the next three races I was at, no matter how short the notice."
Kaarina just rolled her eyes.
"I still think you should have changed before we left," Oscar states.
"Why? What's wrong with my outfit? You said, McLaren," Kaarina says as she looks down at her outfit.
"Yes, but did you really have to put on the Max Verstappen Air Forces?" Oscar points out, looking at her shoes.
"Hey, I will support McLaren, but also my brother," Kaarina says as she pokes Oscar in the arm.
"Isn't Carlos McLaren?" Oscar asks her, even though he knows the answer.
"Yes, my cousin is in McLaren, and he understands; also, I am supporting him," Kaarina pulls up her sleeve and shows the beaded bracelets that she has either stolen or gotten from her brother and cousins to hold and just never given them back.
"Did you steal all of those?" Oscar accuses as they get nearer to the McLaren paddock which has the Red Bull paddock rather close.
"No, the three gave me a couple and just never asked for them back. Also, I bought like three," Kaarina answers a little defensively.
Oscar just shakes his head at her as he sees Max waiting rather close to McLaren for what is assumed as his sister.
"Wait here?" Kaarina asks as she sees her brother; Oscar nods and waits for Kaarina to get done talking to her brother.
"How come he can get you to come but not me?" Max questions as he catches his sister in a hug.
"Because he was bribed and really wanted to come, and no one else really did. Also, he can be very convincing when he wants to be," Kaarina says to her brother as she pulls away from him.
Max nods and then looks at his sister's outfit.
"You told him any team, and he chose McLaren. But I am supporting you," Kaarina said when she saw the expression that briefly crossed his face and then showed him her shoes.
Max chuckled at her again and just kissed her forehead as he saw his engineer wave him over, "See you later?"
"Yeah, I'll be here," Kaarina said, wishing he brother luck with a kiss on the cheek before returning to Oscar, who was joined by Carlos.
"Carlos," Kaarina acknowledges him and gives him a hug.
"Ah, McLaren today, yes?" He says, seeing the outfit she was wearing.
"Don't let the sweater fool you, Carlos; she has 33 Verstappen shoes on," Oscar points out to the Spaniard.
"That is okay, no one really looks at shoes," Carlos counters, making the blonde chuckle at her cousin.
Oscar rolls his eyes as he sees something making the Australian walk away from the two with a little pat on the shoulder to Kaarina as he walks that way.
"So, how's the new teammate?" Kaarina asks her cousin as she watches the Piastri boy walk off.
"So far, he has potential," Carlos says with a thoughtful expression.
Kaarina nods, she sees Carlos being waved to and points it out to him.
"Come," Carlos simply says as he makes his way over to the waving person.
"Lando, this is Kaarina Verstappen, Kaarina this is Lando Norris, the new driver," Carlos introduces the two.
"Like Max Verstappen?" Is all Lando can come up with and is cursing himself out in his head, 'That's it "like Max" really Norris.'
"Exactly, I'm his half-sister. We have different mothers," Kaarina tells him, as she holds her hand out to the newest driver.
Lando takes her hand and shakes it as Carlos starts talking again. After the two let go, Lando still doesn't let go of her hand.
"Don't you two share a birthday?" Carlos asked, but it was as though he just randomly, as the quiet settled in between the three, breaking the eye contract which was held by the younger two.
"We do?" Kaarina questioned, a puzzled look crossing her face as she looked away from Lando to her cousin.
Lando also looked away from the woman to Carlos, "What do you mean?"
"You were both born on November 13th, no?" Carlos asks, looking at the two, having no idea that they were not paying attention to what he was previously saying to them as they walked to and partially through the McLaren garage.
"Really? You were born on November 13th?" Kaarina asked with a smile spreading across her face as she watched Lando.
"Yeah, 1999," Lando says as Kaarina's smile gets bigger, making the British man smile, too, as he blushes at seeing the woman smile.
"Me too! Birthday buddies," Kaarina smiles even wider.
Lando smiles at her smiling face as Carlos closely watches to two who seem to have a staring problem.
"Oh, um... Carlos, Lando, I have to go. Time to see the other cousin, but I will be back," Kaarina kisses Carlos's cheek and gives Lando a side hug as she walks out of the McLaren paddock to the Ferrari one.
"You know she didn't have a boyfriend last I knew, but I would check with her friend, Oscar, or her brother, Max. But I guess you just have to ask," Carlos pats Lando on the back before going over to some fans he saw.
Leaving Lando alone to his thoughts.
Kaarina sat with Oscar as she watched the race, as always rooting for her brother or cousins, but now also rooting for the newcomer Lando Norris.
Her mind was distracted by the color of his eyes and the beauty of his smile. He just wouldn't leave her brain or thoughts.
A classic, he fell first and she fell harder.
Again, this, too, was mostly done before I accidentally posted it, twice. I'm just going to accept that I don't like how I end my posts because I'm not entirely happy with it, but I also think it makes sense for how I wanted it to go and how I want the series to go, but this doesn't need to be read to understand the full relationship in the series.

â ď¸If you need warnings don't read my stuff you never knowâ ď¸
You, Yunho, Mingi, and Jongho had been friends forever. You met as kids because you lived near each other and grew up together. The four of you were inseparable, and the thought of growing up and being sexually attracted to each other wasn't a problem because they made sure to specify to all of the partners that came and went that they did not see you as a girl when it came to the way you behaved with each other. And while that was fine with you for the most part, you did wish they saw you as a woman, because getting tackled by men who grew up to be almost 2 meters tall wasn't a fun time.
In high school, five other boys joined your group: Hongjoong, Seonghwa, Yeosang, Wooyoung, and San. They were incredible people, all different but you loved them all, and you enjoyed the time you spent together.
However, the recent additions caused a huge fight. You felt comfortable around the eight boys in general, but you didn't feel as comfortable as you did with Yunho, Mingi, and Jongho. You felt a little self-conscious when you all hung out and acted like one of them: play fighting, taking off whatever piece of clothing you were uncomfortable in, sleeping together when there were sleepovers, sharing intimate or private stuff that was on your mind... Nonetheless doing these things with guys you weren't well acquainted with was awkward. Sure, you had walked bare-assed in front of Yunho, Mingi, and Jongho, but that was just another Saturday for you.
The awkwardness and discomfort lead you to find some different friends, a group of girls that welcomed you when they saw you walking home alone after you had told the boys that you wouldn't be meeting them at Hongjoong's house that night. The original three boys you grew up with were beyond upset. They felt like they were being replaced, they missed you and they didn't understand why you were quietly drifting away. They didn't understand why you were choosing these girls you barely knew over lifelong friends... Was it because they were guys? Was the problem that unsolvable? Had they just lost you forever?
It wasn't until Yunho snapped one day and cry-yelled at you that you explained (in front of the whole group) that you didn't feel as comfortable with the eight of them as you did with the original three boys and it made it impossible to hang out altogether because it felt like there was a certain barrier.
"Y/N, I'm sorry I know this is between the four of you but I think I speak for the rest of us when I say that we all have different boundaries... San and Wooyoung are always on each other, cuddling and being mushy but Jongho clearly doesn't like that so they don't include him. Baby steps, Y/N, we're not all the same and enjoy being with you, we can compromise certain things to make you more comfortable... Until we all become closer, that is." Seonghwa, the voice of reason since day one, said, mid-fight.
That night you all got drunk and Yunho cried in your arms because he had missed you so much and then threatened to punch you the very next day if you ever brought up that moment.
Years passed and indeed you began feeling more comfortable around everyone else, and the boys you grew up with understood that although they saw you as an equal, they had to be careful 'cause they were a lot stronger.
Unbeknownst to you, you started becoming a real tease to them as time went by. Wearing their t-shirts, that were big enough to cover most of the "essentials" but still left some of your ass hanging out, whenever your nipples were visible through your shirts, when they could feel your tits press against them...
One particular summer day you were all hanging out, you were wearing one of Seonghwa's shirts and just trying to make a bowl of cereal. Mingi was sitting on the counter, already eating, while you struggled to get to the cereal on the top shelf. Your shirt was rising higher than usual, and Mingi could see your panties, the way they shaped your body, and the way your ass jiggled when you went from tippy toes to standing normally as you reached for the food.
"What are you looking at!?" You had asked.
Mingi then realized he was staring, and he realized what he was thinking of: grabbing your hair, bending you over right there, and fuck the innocence out of you.
"You just look particularly stupid today." He replied, trying his best to give a shitty excuse and not give in to his thoughts. Thankfully he always had good insults on his sleeve.
The staring was becoming increasingly common, and sometimes you caught them but never thought much of it: it had been so long since you'd been hanging out, surely one of them would've made a move if they were interested.
It wasn't until Yunho, fueled by the dirty thoughts in his head, straight up told you that you realized it and put the pieces together.
You were all hanging out in his living room, some watching TV, some gossiping, and some just on their phones. You were sitting beside Yunho, your naked legs on his lap. You weren't paying a lot of attention to him, you were listening to San gossip, until his hands separated your thighs. It was a little nudge, but it was enough to make you extremely aware of his touch.
Yunho felt a fire inside like he couldn't control himself anymore. He had seen you so many times but for some reason that day, he needed you. Your thighs on top of him, your shirt falling just in the right place to tease him, almost exposing your underwear but not giving him a peek of anything, the way you seemed to remain so innocent about everyone's intentions, his hands so, so close... Yunho couldn't help it.
After parting your things his hand slightly gripped the inside of the thigh closest to him. You felt something on the bottom of your stomach, it felt... nice. You didn't stop Yunho. His hand became a little braver, getting further and further up your leg.
Just before he could get to your pussy you gripped his wrist.
"Yunho, what are you doing?"
The question had a million meanings. You wanted to know what he was doing, where he wanted to get at, why he was doing it, why was he doing it in front of everyone...
Obviously what you said attracted all eyes in the room. Yunho gripped your thigh as if punishing you for alerting everyone else.
"Come on, don't act like you don't know that everyone in this room wants to fuck you." Yunho said, brushing your hair with one hand, contradicting the gripping of your thigh with a sweet act.
The room fell silent. The only thing that could be heard were the voices from the TV, and everyone had an undecipherable look on their face.
"What?" Was all you could say.
"I'm saying," Yunho paused and gripped your jaw, forcing you to look around the room "all of us want to fuck you. All of us."
You scoffed, surely he was taking the piss.
"Come on Yunho, stop joking."
He wrapped his large hands around your waist, picked you up, and put you down on his lap. Yunho rolled his hips up, so you could feel his hard cock.
"Does that feel like a joke?" He whispered in your ear.
"N-no..."
For the first time ever you were speechless around them. Your thighs were pressed together, you felt hot, and couldn't look anyone in the eye.
"Is... Is what he said true?" You asked, still unable to look at anyone.
Yeosang, that had been sitting beside you, grabbed your chin and made you look at him.
"Everyone in this room wants to use you like the whore we know you are."
While you were looking at Yeosang, you felt a pair of hands grab your thighs. You had been pressing them together, but stopped doing so, so the person you then recognized to be Seonghwa could spread them apart.
"Can we do it?" Seonghwa asked, his hand getting closer and closer to your core.
"Yes." You spoke without thinking. You didn't consider the aftermath or any other thing, you just said what you were feeling.
Seonghwa hooked one finger on the hem of your panties and pushed them to the side. His tongue worked on your pussy as Yunho's big hands trailed up your body and played with your breasts. Yeosang kissed you and your neck roughly.
You felt exposed, you felt watched, and you loved it. You loved the attention, you loved that you couldn't even count how many hands were on you.
You moaned into the kiss you shared with Yeosang as Seonghwa inserted one finger in you and kept eating you out. Yunho pinched your nipples and you arched your back in reaction.
You heard multiple groans echo in the room coming from the other boys.
Yunho was continuously grinding on your ass, and the pressure of his cock against your ass made it impossible not to get desperate. You softly pushed Yeosang away so you could speak.
"Fuck me Yunho, please."
Seonghwa pulled away and gave Yunho space to slide you down to his knees so he could pull out his cock.
"No need to ask twice princess."
Yunho rubbed his cock a couple times before finding your entrance and slamming you down on him. He gave you a couple seconds, before he began moving you up and down. Mingi stood up and removed your shirt so everyone could see your tits bouce, before giving you a quick, rough kiss. The tall man grabbed your hand and guided it to his cock and you began jacking him off as well as possible while being fucked by Yunho, who was absolutely mesmerized by the way your ass bounced against his thighs.
Yunho's hand gripped your throat.
"Look at you getting us off like a good whore, I bet you love being passed around, hm?" Yunho asked, then biting your ear.
You moaned loudly and nodded.
"Fuck, yes- I love it."
You heard Mingi scoff from above, before gripping your chin and making you look up.
"You were right Yunho, she is a filthy whore. We should've used her earlier."
"Don't tire her, we want to fuck her too." San demanded as he jacked himself off painfully slow.
Yunho slapped your ass and picked up the pace.
"Don't worry, she can take it."
The man was holding back, wanted to enjoy the feeling of being inside you, but when he saw Mingi cum all over your chest he came as well, buried deep in you.
Immediately after, San gripped your throat and pulled you up, until you were standing.
"On your hands and knees."
You obeyed his commands and got on all fours on the ground. Wooyoung knelt in front of you, his cock in your face, and San was being you. San was the first to enter you, with a groan. His eyebrows were furrowed as he looked at the place where you two connected as if it was a work of art, and since you couldn't see him, you wondered if San looked as beautiful as he sounded at that moment.
Wooyoung slapped his cock against your cheek.
"Come on baby, open up."
You opened your mouth and began sucking him off as he told you, making sure to maintain eye contact as you did so. Wooyoung grabbed your hair in a makeshift ponytail, as both men found a rhythm to fuck you in.
Wooyoung's face alone was enough to make anyone want to cum: he had his eyebrows furrowed, cheeks red and mouth agape as he looked at you taking his cock. He brushed back his sweaty hair and moaned.
San switched between slapping your ass and gripping your asscheeks with his hands, absolutely loving the way they jiggled every time he trusted into you.
"I bet you love being watched and used by all of us, hm? Just like the pretty little whore you are, fuck, so, so good." San said, hissing and moaning almost after every word.
The eyes on you, the men jerking off to you being fucked, the dirty talk, and the way San was fucking you were too much to handle and you were close. You tapped Wooyoung's thigh so he'd pull out.
"Fuck I'm gonna cum-"
Hongjoong pulled San away from you and replaced his place inside you. You sat up slightly, in a way that you could jerk Wooyoung and San off but could still be fucked by Hongjoong.
"Cum on my cock, come on."
Like as if you were being commanded, you came, and Hongjoong filled you up right after, as he had been edging himself just for that moment.
Upon seeing your pleasure-filled face and hearing your moans as you came, Wooyoung spilled all over your face, followed by San who, as you guessed, looked absolutely beautiful.
Hongjoong pulled out so you could sit on the floor and finish off the last three men. You switched between jerking them off and sucking them off, ready to cum once more not long after, absolutely turned on by the view.
Seonghwa noticed the way you were grinding on the floor.
"Come ride me Y/N. Now."
You got on top on Seonghwa, and began to ride him, still jerking off the other two men. They came on your chest and face, but Seonghwa held off so you could cum again. He played with your clit and, once he felt you tightening around his cock, sat up and helped you bounce on it.
You came and he came at the same time. You were still holding onto his shoulders as you caught your breath together. He tapped your ass, wiped the cum off of your lips with his thumb, and kissed you sweetly.
"You okay?" He asked, with sparkling eyes as if he hadn't just railed you.
"I'm okay, I feel a little exposed but I'm okay."
Yunho helped you up and cleaned you up with his shirt as best as he could.
"Go on and take a shower, I'll find some spare clothes, princess." Yunho said, and kissed the top of your head.
He couldn't help but give your ass a light slap as it jiggled when you walked away, shyly covering your front.
"So is this like, gonna be a regular thing?" San asked.
"No! Weirdo!" You yelled from the other room.
Yunho looked at all his friends and then spoke.
"I got dibs on her."

What's good about KnH is (besides its main char and bc of Maomao) the way it manages the power dynamics and what life was as a woman without falling into utter pessimism and powerlessness or full romanticism; which is a reason I usually avoid like the plague historical/pseudo-historical fiction with female leads.
Usually I'd be super skeeved out by the power Jinshi has over Maomao but the way the series presents both of them, their personalities and their agency (limited as it is for Maomao but it's there and it counts very much) it brings out all the best and interesting parts. I trust this series to get twisty with them bc it establishes so well Maomao own character and understanding of her situation and the ways Jinshi can and does or doesn't take advantage of his power over her.
Like. It's presented as a problematic element, but also unavoidable given their social situation and the world they live in, so I can trust given everything else this show has done when solving the mysteries and presenting us the situations of other women, that the romance will be treated with that same weight.
Honestly if you've read over what I like to read/watch in my tumblr you'll notice that twisty and even toxic/unhealthy dynamics are very much within my favorites, but it needs to be told in a certain way. And I'm much more difficult to satisfy when talking about het romance.
So to watch KnH, notice it's primarily about Maomao life and the various misteries/medicines/palace intrigue and the romance is playing second fiddle riffing on all the themes presented on the plot? And it's complex, and plays with messy power dynamics of gender and class, but never loses Maomao her personhood? Wow.
Also. Jinshi is so BL chara coded omg XD like, he's very clearly based on a kind of shojo ML prototype (hello tamaki suoh!) but it also pulls from BL in his case (nothing to do with their romances but I think of Yan Xiaohan re:his relationship with the imperial power, from Golden Terrace lol)
And yet his romance with Maomao wouldnt work near as well for what is trying to say if they weren't a man and woman (which I love in their case, is what has me fascinated). Yes~! Get into the meat of how fraught it is for a man and a woman to be together when the man has so much power over her. Get into it!!!!
He's so so messy and fun as a chara too. Sheltered and not at the same time, you really notice all the things he misses by way of his privilege of being a noble born man (and specifically royalty, last ep (19) left that very clear he was doing a ritual probably by proxy for the emperor and also bay exchanges people. Maomao noticed and buried that thought far far below her subconscious but we all now who he is lol). Like. The way he fumbles and ends up essentially harassing Maomao at the start sometimes, which is both played for comedic effect and also upsetting. Mmm.
Like I said, I like complexity.
Also that part when he buys Maomao contract and he goes to collect her and she's all dolled up, and the clear implication by everybody but our mains (who clearly prefer to live in willfully blind land although for Jinshi I think the subtext of what he's doing lands when he sees her) is that in any other case she'd be his concubine/side-wife. It's not their situation wight now, and she's put to work as a live-in maid and apothecary and put to study (he wants her to assist him in politics lol I love that, but also he's so so lonely) but it's very much what the palace rumor mill says.
LIKE. I love the messiness! It could go soooo badly, but it also could not and there's Maomao living at the edge bc despite herself and what she says, she wants more from life, but also as she says the rear palace isn't all that different from the high class brothels and ugh. That tension. She has to depend on the favor of a man as a women of low class but she also could lose her head! GAH. And then there's feels involved! Aaagh.

in wbk fandom you can't have conversation about the writing, development and complexity, this fandom is overprotective about nii's mid writing, Any comments about his flaw in writing characters or this plot will be shut down , fandom only cares about shipping and yaoi
the side characters especially umemiya are well fleshed out with detailed backstories , everything in the plot literally revolve around umemiya , the antagonists like choji and chika revolved around their obsession with ume , tsubakino and sugishita backstories included ume too ,nii is focusing on exploring umemiya and his past more than his mc Sakura
Nii can't make Sakura the center of the plot, the plot always revolves around the side cast and their issues ,while the problem Sakura has with trusting people has been addressed and nearly settled, the root cause is still left in the wind. It feels like the issue was addressed, but Sakura himself specifically never got his past elaborated on, but there is prime opportunity for angst and character moments, as well as just humanizing Sakura.
Thank you so much for responding!!
When I said I want to have a conversation, I meant it!! I agree that when you've got a fandom for something, the fans tend to be protective of the media and its author, and that shipping is something that is very prominent in fandom spaces.
But for the sake of this conversation, I'm going to do my best to ignore shipping that isn't confirmed or implied in the manga, and I'm going to acknowledge flaws in the writing if the points you bring up are convincing!
(If it becomes relevant, I'll only bring up things such as Endo and Takiishi's relationship and Tsubaki's affection for Umemiya, but I don't think they'll be something I need to really get into. )
I disagree with all the plot revolving solely around Umemiya, despite how relevant he is to most arcs in the manga.
The reason that Umemiya is so relevant, and is so present in the story, is because Sakura is going to take his spot someday. Sakura comes to Furin intending to take the top spot, a position that is currently filled by Umemiya.
For Sakura to make it to the top and it mean something, we need to understand what the position truly entails, and how it came to be. Which is what all the information we get on Umemiya is for. We're learning of his journey to the top and how he has shaped the world and its inhabitants.
For Choji and the Shishitoren arc, I'd like to argue that his obsession with Umemiya is about his position, and not about Umemiya himself. Choji and Umemiya are essentially in the same position, just in different teams. Which is why Choji focuses on Umemiya the way he does.
Choji and Togame share the same notion of power being a means to freedom. Choji latches onto this and decides that he wants to be the strongest, and therefore the freest. But when he reaches his goal of being the strongest, it turns out to not be like how he imagined, and the team takes a turn for the worst because of this.
Umemiya, however, is the strongest of his team. Yet he isn't experiencing the same boredom and despair as Choji is, despite being at the top. This is what Choji is so focused on. It's less about Umemiya as a person and is instead about the position he's in.
Sakura does also play an important role in the Shishitoren arc. The whole conflict likely wouldn't have started, or wouldn't have gone the way it did if it weren't for Sakura being there. Without him, the conflict likely would've been resolved differently.
Sakura and Togame's fight is important for both characters. For Sakura, he has a fight with someone where they both respect each other, likely for the first time. And for Togame, Sakura opens his eyes to the ways he's been acting, the ways he's gone against his own beliefs in order to salvage what is left of Shishitoren.
As for Tsubakino and Sugishita, they've both known him for years and he's played an important part in their lives.
For Tsubakino, Umemiya has been his friend since their first year in junior high. He learns that Tsubakino just wants to be himself and love the things he loves, which Umemiya praises him for, and tells him he's going to help back him up if someone tries to hurt him again. And they've been close friends all the way to where we currently are in the manga! Umemiya shows up in Tsubakino's story because he's relevant. It'd also be a little strange for Tsubakino to be one of the four kings without Umemiya showing up somehow, don't you think?
And with Sugishita, Umemiya also plays a similar role. Sugishita gets himself stuck in a spiral of meaningless fights he doesn't even want to be a part of, which Umemiya then saves him from. Umemiya saves him and brings him the peace he wants. This then manifests into his loyalty to Umemiya, as well as his friendship with the four kings.
With Sugishita, this also gives us insight into why he seems to hate Sakura so much. From the start we've known the main reason for it, which is Sakura aiming for Umemiya's spot in the school. But with the most recent chapters, we see why exactly he is so offended by this idea. Umemiya brought Sugishita peace, something that Sakura is actively disrupting. How could someone like Sakura, who's constantly snapping at people, and running into fights possibly measure up to Umemiya and what he's done for Sugishita?
It adds another layer to Sakura and Sugishita's rivalry, which I find incredibly interesting!
It's true that a lot of side characters are getting detailed backstories, while Sakura hasn't really had one yet. But in my opinion, this works out nicely with the way it's executed. It adds to the worldbuilding and makes the characters and the town feel more real, more solid.
I've really enjoyed learning about all the characters, as well as their relationships with each other. It makes Makochi and Furin feel like actual places with actual people, rather than just something that's there to only serve the main character.
As for Sakura's lack of backstory? I can see why you're itching for one, but I can't see it fitting into the story well if we got it right now. I also don't think that there even is a lot to it, not a lot to tell. We've already got a lot of info about Sakura and why he is the way he is, even without a proper backstory.
Even the first chapter makes Sakura's past very clear. He's a boy who's been mistreated for his looks for his entire life. It's brought up a couple times in the first few chapters even.
"How ya look doesn't matter in a fight, that's why I came to Furin"
"This is more like it. This is the right reaction. Everyone is always pushing me away, rejecting me, dismissing me-"
Sakura is someone who's been isolated growing up. This shines through in the way he interacts with others. Sakura is much more confident in a fight, he handles himself better in a fight. But when he interacts with others in a casual setting, he stumbles and gets flustered easily. A lot of the things that show just how alone he's been are subtle or might even be played as jokes, such as the only contact in his phone being a bot that gives you the weather forecast for the day. He also takes things literally. This could be just a trait of his, but it's likely a result of his lack of experience in social situations.
It's a lot of little things that add up. He's slow at texting because he's had nobody to text. He holds a spoon weirdly, likely because nobody corrected him growing up. Doesn't know how to open a Ramune bottle as he's never had one before. (This last one could also just be coincidence, but it all does still add up.)
I'm satisfied with how much we know about Sakura, but I'd love to hear what you'd like to get from a Sakura backstory!! Because it is true we haven't gotten a lot of info on where he was before Makochi.
The lack of backstory for him is because Wind Breaker isn't about his past, it's about him moving forward from it. It's about how Sakura makes a space for himself in Makochi. It's a story about him being accepted, about how a boy hated by all others becomes the hero of the town!
Please do respond again!! Share what you think of what I've said and give me your own observations! I'd love to keep the conversation going :)!!
#âif the points you bring up are convincingâ is referencing future asks you send btw. where you back up what you say w examples and such#I left takiishi out of this to not make it longer than it already is..#Id be happy to talk about what him endo and umemiya have going on as well though !!#as well as the other arcs. such as KEEL! you said something about KEEL earlier that I found interesting :)#sorry if I took a while to respond . i wrote half of this yesterday when i got this ask and then finished it today :P#i was originally going to keep all of this off the wind breaker tag but . ive written 1300 words of wind breaker analysis#so i think i deserve it atp#wind breaker#laauranenn#asks

Having talked a bit about both Chi-Chi/Goku and Bulma/Vegeta, I wanted to talk a bit more about Chi-Chi and Goku's relationship, and why it works for these particular characters.
As I talked about before, Goku is an aromantic character. He's also probably asexual or at least on the asexual spectrum. He's obviously not sex-repulsed as demonstrated by the existence of Gohan and Goten, but he's disinterested in the pursuit of romance or sexuality. Or any social endeavors, for that matter; Disappearing for years at a time while none of his friends get so much as a word from him was normal for Goku long before he ever even had a family.
It's a practice he retained even after he "settled down" with Chi-Chi.
"See ya later, Chi-Chi! I'm meeting up with all my old pals for the first time in five years."
This is just how Goku is. He doesn't have much of a social instinct at all. He has hyperfixations he wants to pursue, and he has varying degrees of "I do/do not like this person". but he isn't driven to socialize. The reason he's living with Chi-Chi is because he made a promise that he would live with Chi-Chi.
Yamcha's explanation here is Goku's sole conception of romance. They have to live in the same house now because that's what Goku promised her. That is Goku's one and only wedding vow.
He. Uh. He's not even very good at honoring that much.
Goku you literally only understand the barest possible minimum of what this social contract means and you're still failing at it. How do you even.
In any case, what makes Chi-Chi/Goku work is the innocence of it. Because Chi-Chi's comprehension of what they're actually doing here is as limited as Goku's is.
That's it. That is Chi-Chi's comprehension of romance. She is backest of backwoods Alabama Royalty. In this scene, she was five seconds away from letting herself be manipulated into thinking that a man that did this a minute ago was secretly in love with her:
See, it's okay 'cause he said "I love you" afterward so I guess this was all just a misunderstanding!
I'm not exaggerating when I say that Chi-Chi dodged a fucking bullet given the quality of relationship she could so easily have been suckered into. This girl was destined to be a domestic abuse victim.
...uh. Y'know.
Apart from one of the grossest jokes Toriyama ever wrote, I mean.
Point is, Chi-Chi is in the same boat as Goku. For Goku, this all started over a misunderstanding. He didn't know what Chi-Chi was talking about when she said she wanted him to ask for her hand.
For Chi-Chi, it's exactly the same. This all started over a misunderstanding. She didn't know that Goku just learned what girls are like three days ago and had a bad habit for a while of groping people to discern their genders.
Both of these kids are naive, innocent morons.
This innocence, this total lack of comprehension for what they are actually doing for both parties, is what makes their oddball contractual dynamic come across as funny and inoffensive. They aren't in love with one another in a romantic sense; They're playing house on a large scale.
The first day they met, they made a contractual agreement off of mutual dumbassery. The second day they met, the got married to fulfill that contract. Now they're trying to do the things that Chi-Chi was socially conditioned to believe you're supposed to do when you're married. That is their entire relationship with one another.
There is an innocence to all of this that allows the aroace Son Goku to be in a hetero dynamic without his partner coming across as predatory.
This, incidentally, is also why it's for the best that nothing ever came of this:
Yeah. Oh yeah. This. If it had been Bulma instead of Chi-Chi, this absolutely would have come across as predatory.
With Goku being aroace, there's essentially no possible way these two characters could get together romantically that wouldn't seem unbelievably manipulative on Bulma's part. Unlike Chi-Chi, she knows exactly what she's doing. She's super-intelligent, socially literate, and supremely amoral.
If these two got together, it would absolutely feel like she was taking advantage of Goku's naivety. That's why, though their relationship is arguably the strongest and the single-most important interpersonal relationship in the series:
It vitally remains platonic to this day.
This is, itself, the beauty of Toriyama's character writing. His plots have varying degrees of jankiness to them, his "traditional values" and sometimes flagrant sexism bleeds through his work, and there are some really gross moments here and there. But one thing he grasps well is the unique dynamics of every interpersonal relationship.
At no point are these characters simply "A group of friends". Every relationship between two characters is unique, built upon their own personal identities and histories with one another. Tenshinhan's relationship with Goku is not the same as his relationship with Gohan, his relationship with Krillin, or his relationship with Vegeta.
And they often defy easy categorization into boxes like "The Lovers" and "The Pals" and "The Besties". Goku's relationship with Bulma or Vegeta or Chi-Chi is what it is, and it is nothing else, but what exactly it is isn't easily pinned down into a neat, digestible semblance of normalcy. It just. Is.

âI donât understand why you do that.â You said from your shared bed.
âDo what?â Daryl asked you as he stood in front of the full-length mirror. He was essentially checking him out, but with a lot more apprehension for himself than the usual.
âNit-pick every part about you until thereâs nothing left.â
ââCause I look stupid.â You knew he meant to play it off as a scoff, maybe even a dig at the bulky plastic uniform, but you know that he could be placed in a potato sack and still be convinced that heâs the reason why the sack doesnât look good.
With a sigh, you got up from the bed, coming to stand behind him.
âWell,â You breathed out as you set your hands on his shoulders. âYou want to know what I think?â You asked him softly. He just grunted, giving you a half-hearted shrug, only one of his shoulders moving up as he cast his gaze to the floor. You took that grunt as a means to continue, your hands sliding down to his biceps and giving and them a firm squeeze - the firmest squeeze that you could seeing as though the armor got in your way.
âI think that you look sexy.â Your touch then traveled down to his forearms, resting there for a moment before reaching around his waist, resting your hands on his chest plate. âAnd strong.â You continued. Your arms snaked back behind him, placing themselves on his pert ass, which was is outlined by the posterior coverup. âBut also, it makes your ass look good.â You finished with a smile when you heard his chuckle.
You gripped his hips and softly turned him around, cupping the scruff of his cheeks. His eyes closed at the gentle show of affection.
âYou look handsome all the time, okay? So, I donât want you worrying about some stupid uniform; and besides, I should be worried about other women coming after you once they see you in this.â He let out a sound that was a mix between a scoff and a snort, âYa ainât gotta worry about that.â He reassured you. âI know.â You said with a smile.
Your eyes fell on his lips before you leaned up to capture them softly.
He reciprocated your affections, his grip on your waist tightened, pulling you as close to his body as he could despite the uniform that prevented him from feeling your ample, plush form against his.
âNeedâta get this stupid shit off me.â He grumbled against your mouth. You giggled, a smile spreading on your face as you both frantically worked, and managed, to get his top and pants off; now, all he was left in was his black long-sleeved shirt and his underwear.
âWell, donât you look cute.â You teased. âAinât cute.â He growled, pulling you towards him so he could feel you now. âSure, you arenât.â You joked sarcastically before intertwining your fingers into his hair and pressing your lips together. He grunted into your mouth at the added pressure to his scalp, but he didnât complain, slowly walking you backwards until your calves hit the bed.
He gently set you down, motioning you to move up on the bed so that your head was now propped up on the pillows.
He settled himself between your thighs, working your underwear down your legs.
âTonight is supposed to be about you, Dar.â You sighed as you felt his breathing against your damp labia. âI know, but this is what I wanna do.â He said, throwing your thick legs over his as equally thick shoulders. âThen I suppose I shouldnât stop you.â You gasped out as he ran his tongue through your folds, the muscle caressing your clit.
He ate you out like a man starved, his tongue dipping in and out of your hole before trailing back up to suck your clit into his mouth, lightly nibbling on it. Your legs twitched around his head, your back arching and your nails scratching at his scalp. He groaned loudly, the vibration of his timbre voice sending an almost electric like current to shoot up your spine; your breathing turning labored as he did. His fervent licks coaxed you closer to your orgasm, your thighs pressing against his ears like warmed earmuffs.
You tasted divine and he just couldnât stop. With the stress of being recruited and trained, plus having to deal with assholes - mostly Sebastian - he needed this, needed to be able to get lost for just a few moments, and he was grateful that you were his vice, a sea to get lost in.
âDaryl! âm gonna- âm gonna cum, please.â You cried out. Though your voice was muffled, he could feel it in the way you squeezed around him. As you neared your high, he focused solely on your clit, leisurely flicking and sucking until you shook, your whine that almost sounded like a squeal broke the air.
He pulled away from you once your legs grew weak, your limbs falling open so he could wiggle his way up your chest to deliver you a burning kiss. You could taste yourself on him as you desperately tried to keep up with the rigorous pace that his mouth moved in.
âYou fine to keep goinâ?â He mumbled. You nodded, laying your head back in bliss so he could deliver heated nibbles and bites to the column of your throat. âYeah.â You swallowed.
He looked into your eyes one more time before taking your hand in his and lacing your fingers together, the other reached down to align himself to your entrance before allowing himself to push into you.
You drew your bottom lip into your mouth, shutting your eyes and squeezing Darylâs hand as you got used to him. It wasnât long before he picked up his pace, his thrusts slow and deep. You could feel him, feel all of him as he took large inhales of air, selfishly breathing you in as he groaned.
âYa feel so good.â He grunted as he pulled out just to slam his hips back into you. Your head swam at the praise, a meek whimper pushing past your lips. Your nails dug into his shoulders, leaving crescent marks in their wake. Daryl always enjoyed the extra added pain, his body stuttering at the scratches.
âNeedâta feel ya squeeze me.â He heaved. He pressed his body further onto yours, as if he was trying to mold you two together. You fed into his demand, contracting around him that sent his body jolting upward. âGod damn girl.â He cursed.
âFaster, D. I need it.â You whined, arching your back to the best of your abilities. âI got you.â He assured you, picking up his pace, the pleasure that shot up your spine scrambling your brain.
His cock constantly brushed up against that spongy spot hidden deep within you.
With the way his hips were stuttering, you could tell he was close.
âCum in me.â You gasped. Normally, Daryl would choose to take the cautious route, but tonight, your loving words and reassurance had gotten him so pent up that he couldnât help but agree, marking you as his as he let go inside of you with a deep, earth-shattering combination between a moan and a groan.
You worked him through the aftershocks of his orgasm, running your fingers through his hair, holding him close to you as he shook in your arms.
âYou okay?â You asked with a shit-eating grin. He huffed a chuckle. âYeah, âm alright.â He said from the crook of your neck. âFuckinâ exhausted though.â He grunted as he rolled off of you.
âOh, how I love my old man.â You teased, cuddling up to his side.
âShuddup.â

I am loving this event way more than I thought I would (haven't fully gone through it yet)
But I was not expecting Vil to go ham on insults
And this was just from what I played through today
Glad I'm not actually there cause I'd be in the background like "OOOOHHH! DAMN VIL, YOU TELL 'IM!!!" And Leona would hate me
Also love how we get the representation of someone who hates kids, I feel like there are few to no shows that demonstrate it
Cheka is cute and I love him, but I can understand Leona
To be honest, Leona has never really been on my roster, I am more of a Malleus/Deuce/Rollo type of gal
Leona just seems like someone more fun to bugger with
But this ...
This reveal???
Jaw dropping, king of the jungle for real, hubba hubba, hot dayum--Malleus forgive me
Another moment that I am glad I wasn't there for cause I was all over the other three's "take off the overcoat" reveal and would've been fan-girling over them, whooping and gassin' 'em up,
But the difference in how my reaction to seeing them compared to Leona would've been obvious
His aura was just so different and he doesn't show off his strength, he prefers brain over brawn, but now he was so smug about it
Like, yes, that's what I live for
Not to mention that I personally love the idea of "flirt fighting" which entails actually sparring. Wanting to better defend and strengthen yourself is the main motivator, but tension is a great plus.
And that's essentially everything he's doing here???
Get me in the ring with him, I will lose but I will enjoy every second of it
And then, when all's said and done,
He takes the time to actually voice his evaluation and assessment of everyone in a straightforward and nice way
I feel like I got to see a side of Leona I hadn't before and I'm really liking it
I remember reading a post about how Leona doesn't really resemble Scar who he's twisted from during the Book of Savanaclaw, where there was some good points made (namely, he kinda sat back while Ruggie did most of the dirty-work, it was on Leona's behalf but we didn't see much of him stringing Ruggie around).
But in this event we really get to see the "Scar Side" of Leona. His wit, his cunning and the issues that motivate Leona; he wants change for the better of his pride and knows how to get there quick, but others won't listen cause they have other values they'd like to keep in tact and it irritates him that they're putting the things that are (in his mind) more insignificant, first.
And I think introducing that part of Leona in this event instead of in Book of Savanaclaw works amazingly well because Leona is a prince, he is at NRC to learn yes but stays there (probably also gets held back on purpose so he'll have an excuse to stay away from home) to forget about his frustrations with his homeland. So, I think he wouldn't have much incentive to want to fix as much in his dorm or the school since his problems mainly lie back in his Kingdom.
Anyway, this is plenty fuel for happiness and story ideas and that's about all I have to share right now
(Also, the bow Grim is wearing is most similar to Leona's garb and since we are "a package deal" I'm assuming we're both wearing similar prints. So, we may be matching spectacularly with Leona. Dunno about you, but I'd gladly follow along as if I'm his trophy wife-- again, I'm sorry, Malleus don't come for me-- and also this is just more story fuel ...)
"Leona x reader x Malleus"
The story goes through the whole Cloud Calling event, with Y/N learning there's so much more to the lazy beastman than thought originally. But, when Lilia shows off the group's trip photos, Malleus is enraged to see you leaning happily against Leona in what are practically couples' clothes, the smug smirk the lion is sporting seems to be targeted specifically at the fae. What will happen when you return to NRC from your trip? Find out in the next episode

in the spirit of the genre i'd like to hijack the current asian country music train to talk about one of my favourite historical guys shoji tabuchi: fiddler hall of famer! king of kitsch americana slay!! one of the Most Guys Ever in country music!!!!!
[OKAY this spiralled into a Whole Thing so im putting it under the cut to save your dashes. be warned this is long]
quick backstory: shoji tabuchi was born in osaka, japan. he was classically trained on the violin but discovered country through roy acuff and joined a fairly popular japanese band called the bluegrass ramblers. in 1967 he moved to america with (he claimed later) his guitar and five hundred dollars and played in a couple of bands around california and texas. in the 80s, he got a contract in branson missouri, met his wife there, and they started a show called (very creatively) the shoji tabuchi show.
this is where it gets fun, because the shoji tabuchi show is. okay. it's like if you concentrated the distilled essence of 1990s RAGHHH AMERICA HELL YEAH-style patriotism into a three hour-long extravaganza with backup dancers! fog machines! ten thousand glitter suits! SHOJI spelled out all caps with lasers! a glow in the dark space violin from NASA! like it's TACKY! it's CHEESY! it's CAMP! it's genuinely hilarious!
anyway, when people talk about tabuchi they like to say that he was the "american dream" like he had a family, he owned a whole incredible theatre with (no joke) the gaudiest bathrooms in america, he played two shows a day until he died, he performed to the pm of japan⌠like he was GETTING THAT BREAD!! the city of branson even gave him a public holiday!
and to be clear. i love tabuchi, i think he was a great entertainer and a great performer, and i don't begrudge him any of his success. but there are better fiddlers out there, better performers, better singers. as a guy on reddit put it in 2013 put it, you kind of have to recognise that at least some part of his success is enabled by "Asian Can Into Country Music???" syndrome. and he has kind of acknowledged this himself-- he used to sell himself as the "japanese cowboy" before he started his show, and he once told a magazine "say person A and person B play [the fiddle] just as good. who stands out, me or him?" which is. #girlboss? maybe? one of his more defining traits throughout his career was his fairly pronounced japanese accent which made it difficult for him to gain footing in the music industry at first but became iconic . some people have said that he didn't actually have that strong of an accent and he was playing it up for the Bit-- a hypothesis that is (somewhat) supported by his album named (i kid you not) ROVE RETTERS.
so how much of the shoji tabuchi show was the Bit and how much of it was genuine? and if it is a bit, who's in on it? who's being made fun of- tabuchi? japan? the audience? america? i have to admit i'm pretty biased here because the essential Incongruence of being an asian-can-into-country-music person IS funny! rawhide kobayashi and all that! and i understand why he might have leant into it and played it up to survive/get famous/get that bread. i never knew tabuchi, so i can't say that like it's fact, but wouldn't that be the most american thing of all?
#jimmy july core-I AM FORCIBLY REMOVED FROM BRANSON MISSOURI#i don't know why and how this got so long. sorry gang#musicposting#What do people tag on these#asian american#history#phd in yapology
