❛  oh well, what a shame. i guess if i can't have them i'll just enjoy getting to spend time with you without nuisances interrupting.  ❜ he humas out, amused. if he had to he'd resort to eating the treats - but for now he'll play ... nicer. for now.

@msftsn replied to your post :

are we sure these treats aren't for scar? because he's here now.

​​─「银月」─  " these aren't for you. " she was holding the bag away from the other. why was he looking at them like he was going to eat them ?

She Keeps Me Up | Chapter 1

pairing: Arthur Morgan x fem/afab!reader

Plot summary: Modern AU, John Marston is in a band, you're in the band. (as the bassist). One day, Arthur is dragged to one of John's gigs and sees you playing and develops a lil crush

warning: very slight nsfw themes if you squint, and I mean squint but other than that there are none

authors note: this is my first fan fic so constructive criticism is welcomed! can you tell what instrument I play? ;) can't tell if this story will turn into anything so this might be abandoned.... sorry!

The mashup mentioned in the fic, is this one below. My band plays it, and it is very cool.

-------------------------------------------------------

The bar was dingy. Why did John even bother to book this place? Arthur wondered to himself as he stumbled in. The band was still setting up as John wondered over to him. "You excited, Arthur?" John questioned.

"No" Arthur replied bluntly. John expected this. His band only played covers and mashups, and that was not Arthurs scene. "Well even so, I hope you enjoy it" John said to Arthur. He just shrugged as John walked back to his band. Arthur walked over to the bar and ordered himself a beer as he waited for the band to start.

The lights dimmed, casting a red hue over the bar. It must be starting soon. Arthur wondered to himself. Almost as soon as he thought that, the opening notes of Seven Nation Army could be heard throughout the bar. The lights shone up on the band, and that's when he saw it. You. There you were playing the main riff to seven nation army. As basic as the song choice was, Arthur couldn't help but think to himself how well you played.

He was surprised, as he was getting into the song, John sang a different song? it was not seven nation army, but sweet dreams are made of this. He actually enjoyed it. Usually he didn't like the music John played but here he was, tapping his foot and humming along. Maybe it was you? the way your fingers worked sent him into a trance. He wondered what else those fingers could do....

He shook his head. He couldn't be thinking this! You were John's band member! But then it happened. You looked at him from the risen floor, which was a pathetic attempt of a stage. You looked at him with those peircing eyes of yours, sending him into a blushing mess. This has never happened before? he was blushing over someone looking at him! He was thankful for how dark it was in the room because he was certain he was bright red.

He stood there in a trance throughout the whole gig, only looking at you. You had hypnotised him as if you were a sorcerer holding a watch in front of him and rocking it back and forth.

Before he knew it, it was the end of the gig, and the lights were turning on. He slowly, hypnotically dragged himself over to John. "Well done, that was actually decent" he congratulated him. "Thanks, Arthur, means a lot" John replied.

"Let me introduce you to the band!" John takes his arm and drags him over to meet everyone. "That's Taylor, our drummer, Kaylee is on rhythmic guitar and you know I'm on lead guitar and singing" He then points you out and says your name "That's our bassist". You wave and smile at him. Arthur can't speak, he can't do anything but wave back. You finish packing up your instruments and walk over to John "Alright, I'm out" you say, patting his shoulder and waving goodbye. He couldn't believe it, your voice was softer than butter, as airy as a sponge.

John turned to Arthur as he followed your form leaving the bar. "We're getting drinks here same time tomorrow, you up for it?". Arthur only nods.

Same place, same time he'll get to see you again. Of course, he'd be there. He couldn't wait

notes: thanks for reading! I hope everything was decent and pls lmk if people want another chapter! chapter 2 available now

captain of the crownguard: a soren mix

She took the punches, but she never fought/'Til she said, "I'm leaving," | Nothing's gonna change the things that you said/And nothing's gonna make this right again | Sometimes walkin' out is the one thing/That will find you the right thing | Say that they're always gonna stay together/But one's never going to let go of that wire | You don't have to be sorry for leaving and growing up | I'm terrified that I might never have met me | There's a hole in my chest/From the time I walked away | You are so much more than your father's son/You are so much more than what I've become | To the changes and the traumas/I was keeping in a closet | But I'm moving forward, I've found my freedom/I've found the life that gave the reason to love | Can we be friends? Could you be my best friend? | Here to change the world/To solve the mystery, fight the battle | Cry, cry, go ahead and ruin someone else's life | I'm gonna fight 'em off/A seven nation army couldn't hold me back | I don't dance/I know you can | Cause lately I've been feeling strange/And everybody's telling me to act my age | And somehow, we fell out of touch/Hope he took his bad deal and made a royal flush | You know, I'm not the little boy that I used to be/I'm all grown up now, baby, can't you see? | Well, they showed you a statue, told you to pray/They built you a temple and locked you away | When I fold, you see the best in me/The joker and the queen | And if there was a place that I had to choose/Or a memory, that faith that I cannot lose (...) It'd be in your arms tonight

pt 2/4: little changes (gun park x reader)

...except the main character is goo and reader only plays a role in little dialogue. hear me out.

(pt 1)

details: fluffy oneshot, gender neutral reader written in 2nd pov, general canon au, you and gun have been dating for a while in secret

summary: goo starts to notice little changes in gun, influenced by you. the thing is, gun is keeping his relationship on the low, so here are goo's antics of being annoying and trying to find out who you are.

warning: one part of these moments has implications of gun and reader in bed!

a/n: i dont rmbr how i got this information but at the time i wrote this, i heard gun couldn't drive so... yeah lol

(ironically i forgot gun's first appearance is him literally driving crystal around. but tbh, just bc i think its funny, i wanna keep it a headcanon that he can't drive LMAO)

×

"Make sure you don't text and drive."

"Hah, how old do you think I am?"

"Just saying! You text often on your travels so I wanna make sure."

"Don't worry, I always make my coworker drive."

. . .

The red stop light finally gave Goo a chance to snap his neck towards the passenger seat where Gun sat.

"Must be so nice to just sit there, huh?"

"Eyes on the road," Gun replied flatly, his gaze still glued to his phone. Nearly the entire ride he had his eyes on it. And it looked like he was texting.

Suddenly curious, Goo acknowledged Gun's comment with, "We're at a stoplight, dumbass," and then asked, "Who's so important you can't stop texting them?"

"Why is that the assumption?"

Goo scrunched a brow, lips twisting into a frown. "What does that mean?"

"I could be typing notes in my phone."

"Stop bullshitting, you and I never take notes."

For a second Gun looked like he was going to admit Goo was right, but then he just looked up and said, "The light's green again."

Goo looked back in front of him, only to see a red light. He deadpanned and turned back to Gun, staring down at his phone.

"Seriously, who're you texting? I've driven your ass around for twenty minutes and you've done nothing but stare and text on your phone."

"That's none of your business. How close are we to our destination?"

Goo tsked and sucked in a breath of sharp air, bringing his eyes to the road. "Almost there."

"Alright."

There was a pause as the light actually turned green this time and Goo pushed down on the pedal, pushing the driving limit like he always did. He decided to keep bothering Gun in the meanwhile.

"I know you're not texting the boss, he'd rather call you, and he only talks to us for business reasons. I'd guess it's also probably not Crystal since your conversations with her are always short and to the point. And you don't have any friends. Just who are you texting?" He kept on rambling his thoughts out loud, while Gun sat silently.

When Goo eventually gave up, he suggested Gun drive sometimes so he could just be on his phone for twenty minutes.

"I got Candy Crush levels to beat, ya know."

"You won't be alive to beat them if you allow me to drive."

Memories of a burning car with him and Gun standing in front of them flashed in Goo's mind three times--a different car each time--and he nodded.

"I don't know how you can fight a seven nation army but can't drive a car."

"That's a mystery to me, too."

Goo wanted to facepalm.

"That selection of jewelry looks so nice."

"You know you can buy it, right? My card is yours."

"No, Gun, we are not doing this again. Last time you let me use your card you ended up nearly buying the entire store for me."

"Hmph."

. . .

"Rubies, eh?" Goo held up the necklace he picked up, embedded with emeralds. He glanced back and forth between it and the ruby necklace Gun was holding. "You buying a necklace?"

"No, I don't like jewelry."

"The hell are you doing here then?"

"I'm buying a gift."

Goo snorted. "Very funny, now tell me the truth."

Gun stared through his sunglasses, not a single muscle moving on his face.

"Oh?" Goo leaned in, staring more closely at Gun's face like there was some hidden movement of an expression change or something. "Who's it for, huh? I didn't think you'd be the type to buy jewelry for someone."

"I'm buying it for someone special to me," Gun answered surprisingly honestly, leaving Goo flabbergasted for a moment.

"Uh." He leaned back to compose himself, adjusting his glasses. "First off, that's so cringe. Secondly, you actually have a friend?" Or maybe a lover or crush? Usually that's what someone special meant. Still seemed unbelievable, but just in case, Goo added in, "...Or something?"

Gun made a slight smirk. "I'm not incapable of creating bonds."

Goo shivered. "Ew, why do you always talk like an alien? Just say you made a friend." He followed Gun as the latter turned away to look at bracelets. "Who'd you become friends with? Some new successor you're trying to impress through jewelry?"

"When have I ever done that? Of course not."

"Then who?"

"Does my personal life matter to you?"

Goo swatted at his shoulder. "I could care less, but you've got me curious now. Who's this 'special someone' to you?"

"Stay curious," simply said Gun, picking up bracelets with his free hand and comparing them to the necklace in his other hand.

"Ugh."

Fine, Goo didn't care. It was probably some one night stand Gun just really liked the work of and wanted to keep around.

Actually... Gun had never said anyone was special to him before. It was cringey to hear him say that before like Goo stated, but now curiosity grew in him. What could it mean...?

~

"Oh, shit! I just remembered your meeting!"

"Damn, I lost track of time."

"It's fine, we both did, now hurry!"

. . .

Mr. Choi strummed his fingers across the table, not hiding his annoyance. "Gun, late again?" he questioned, Goo snickering.

Gun bowed his head slightly. "You called in a sudden meeting. I apologize for not being prepared, sir."

Goo was sitting leaned back in his chair, feet kicked up on the table. "Why do you look like a mess?"

Gun straightened up, finishing buttoning his shirt up and running a hand through his hair. His tone was much more sharper when replying to Goo. "I just said I apologize for being unprepared."

"So? It's late at night, what were you doing? Lounging around and being messy?" joked Goo.

Mr. Choi narrowed his eyes. "Or did you just come back from 'messing around?'"

Goo's jaw dropped when Gun's head slightly lowered once more.

"You youngsters..." Mr. Choi pinched the bridge of his nose.

"No fucking way!" Goo immediately started cackling as he leaned back, nearly falling from his chair. He moved to sit properly while giggling in between. "Sorry we interrupted your little fun~"

Gun ignored him and just mumbled an apology when Mr. Choi lectured him with, "I know you're an adult with the freedom to do as you wish, but don't be so careless by losing track of time."

The meeting began right after that, and Goo listened, of course. But he couldn't help but be mildly distracted by thoughts about the person Gun was "messing around with." Did they really do him so good he would lose track of time? Or did this person matter more to him than this meeting so he stayed back a little?

Probably the first, and it was also funnier if it was true. If the second was true though, that'd be interesting. Still kind of funny, though... Goo felt like he could never imagine Gun getting emotionally invested in anyone.

~

"Have fun at the party!"

"Ugh, I don't even want to go... promise me you'll still be here if I come back early. Which I probably will."

"Pft, sure."

. . .

Goo had a little too much to drink during this party. But he was having fun so who cares?

While chatting up some people, he saw Gun walking away to the exit of the room and ran after him, leaving the people he was talking to confused. He wrapped an arm around Gun's shoulder once he caught up, slurring, "Where're you going, huuuh~?" Gun shrugged him off but Goo just moved to hug his arm instead. "The party just began!"

"Ugh." Gun pulled his arm out of Goo's grasp. "I don't like parties like these."

"But you never leave this early! Come on, there's more to drink and eat!"

Gun sighed and looked around until he spotted a certain someone. "Crystal!"

"Hm?" She looked over at him, pausing from grabbing snacks at the tables.

"Keep this guy busy."

"What?" Gun was already sprinting away. Crystal started shouting, "Gun! GUN!! YOU ASSHOLE!!"

"Where's he going?" Goo wailed, heading to Crystal to lean onto her. "It's like he's sneaking away to see someone!"

Crystal shoved Goo away (or attempted to, because he kept falling on her like he didn't have a skeleton), saying something under her breath as she shook her head.

Goo didn't hear, and even if he did, he probably wouldn't remember tomorrow morning anyways.

Do you have songs that remind you of Éomer? Doesn't matter at what point in his life, even AU.

Thank you for this question, my fellow (happy) sufferer of Eomer Simping Disease! <3 I wish I were better at coming up with story playlists and character theme songs for the LOTR fandom, but sadly most of my favorite music (usually pop and classic rock) doesn't quite fit the Middle-earth setting (whereas when I was writing for the Marvel fandom, I had playlists out the wazoo).

However, there are a few songs that I have found do inspire me when I write my current two Eomer x Reader fanfics, which both feature the Stallion of Rohan in love with Rohanese commoners, which leads to lots of angsty pining and "us against the world" drama:

Gorgeous (Taylor Swift) "You've ruined my life, by not being mine" - A lady so hopelessly in love with Eomer but knows she cannot have him, and can only bemoan how beautiful he is. (Isn't this all of us, really? No? Just me?)

Rewrite the Stars (from The Greatest Showman) "You claim it's not in the cards and fate is pulling you miles away, and out of reach from me. But you're here in my heart, so who can stop me if I decide that you're my destiny?" - So normally I hate stealing songs away from the films they were intended for, but this one is just PERFECT for the angsty romance I have going for "Taken". Pretty much the entirely of the lyrics can be lines spoken by both Eomer and Reader (who is pretty much solidified as an OC in my head at this point).

Marry Me (Train) "Forever can never be long enough for me to feel like I've had long enough with you." - Okay, so this song is sappy and modern and at first listen might seem like a total misfit for Eomer. But there's something about the melody and the gentle way it's sung and the straightforward, earnest lyrics that makes me imagine this is how he would propose to the woman he loved in song.

Seven Nation Army (The White Stripes) "I'm gonna fight 'em off; A seven nation army couldn't hold me back." - This rock staple's lyrics might have a different meaning that most people don't realize, but it's such a popular sports anthem that I can't help but imagine it as something Eomer would ride into battle with along with his eored.

Anyway, these are probably not the songs you had in mind when you asked this question, but I admit to being pretty bad at this. XD I absolutely welcome any song or playlist suggestions (for Eomer or any other characters!) that anyone might think of! My music library could definitely use an expansion or refresh!

Songs that reminds me of Lovota

"I'm not real and i deny, i won't heal unless i cry. I can't grieve, so i won't grow, i won't heal 'til i let it go. Cry, cry, cry 'til you know why, i lost myself, identify..."

“I’m sick and tired hearing the choir singing Sunday morning. Travelling home, it wasn’t far. Easter Sunday and you told me my brothers were gone.”

“I just need your mercy. Allow me to worship. I’m at your service. Put me to work.”

"I'm gonna fight 'em off. A seven nation army couldn't hold me back. They're gonna rip it off. Takin' their time right behind my back. And i'm talkin' to myself at night, because I can't forget."

"And the stains comin' from my blood Tell me, "Go back home""

“You think you know me, wait ‘til i open up to you. If i want pure love, must stop acting so though. If i want your love, ohh got to open up.”

"Maybe then, i'll fade away and not have to face the facts. It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black."

"I wanna see it painted, painted black. Black as night. Black as coal. i wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky. i wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black, yeah."

[villanellecter]

I'm bringing sexy back

a seven nation army couldn't hold me back

[frogmaster]

My headcanon is immagine Remus John Lupin every time i hear Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes

And remind me of every fix-it Fanfiction where he and Regulus destroy horcruxes

Like

"A Seven Nation Army couldn't hold me back

They're gonna rip it off

Takin' their time right behind my back

And i'm talking to myself at night because i can't forget

Back and forth through my mind, behind a cigarette"

Imagine Dragons - Believer | I was broken from a young age / Taking my sulking to the masses / Writing my poems for the few / That look at me, took to me, shook to me, feeling me / Singing from heartache from the pain / Taking my message from the veins / Speaking my lesson from the brain / Seeing the beauty through the... Pain! / Oh, let the bullets fly, oh, let them rain / My life, my love, my drive, it came from... Pain! / You made me a, you made me a believer, believer

Imagine Dragons - Ready Aim Fire | Off in the distance there is resistance / Bubbling up and festering / Hey mr motion make me a potion / Shake it all up with your mystery / How come I've never seen your face around here / I know every single face around here / A man on a mission changing the vision / I was never welcome here / We don't have the choice to stay / We'd rather die than do it your way

The Glitch Mob - Seven Nation Army (The White Stripes Remix) | I'm gonna fight 'em off / A seven nation army couldn't hold me back They're gonna rip it off / Takin' their time right behind my back / And I'm talkin' to myself at night / Because I can't forget / Back and forth through my mind / Behind a cigarette / And the message comin' from my eyes says, "Leave it alone"

Lorde - Everybody Wants To Rule The World | Welcome to your life / There's no turning back / Even while we sleep / We will find you / Acting on your best behaviour / Turn your back on mother nature / Everybody wants to rule the world / There's a room where the light won't find you / Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down / When they do I'll be right behind you / So glad we almost made it / So sad they have to fade it

Nachtmahr - Ich bin | Ich werd gehasst, verdammt, vergöttert / Erfolglos diffamiert / Geliebt, verbannt, verspottet / Doch niemals ignoriert / Ich bin ich bin wie ich bin / Und ich hab' dich nicht drum gebeten mich zu verstehen / Ich bin ich bin wie ich bin / Und ich werde meinen Weg auch ohne dich weiter gehen / Ich bin niemand der akzeptiert was sich als gegeben präsentiert / Ich bin ein Geist, der stets verneint / Dein bester Freund, dein größter Feind
