#BEST™️

[diazsdimples]

I need so much buddietommyshannon it's not even funny. Tell me everything. What are they like in the morning? Who's a morning person? Who's making coffee? Who's not getting out of bed?

Me too bestie, they consume my every waking hour.

Tommy and Eddie are definitely morning people. Tommy makes the coffee, and he makes it in a very specific way which his partners have long since learned not to fuck with. While he's doing that, Eddie corrals the children out of bed (Christopher is generally good at getting himself up but he is a teenager. The twins are just... small).

Shannon and Buck do not enjoy mornings. Buck tolerates them on days where he's working but if it's a weekend, you will not see him out of bed before 9am at the earliest. He and Shannon stay curled up against one another in their massive Alaskan King, buried under a pile of comforters and blankets. Shannon will threaten bodily harm to anyone who tries to get her out of bed before she's ready, unless it's her children. Which Eddie and Tommy have used a number of times (Gives a child a plate of food and nudges them into the room with a cheerful "go give this to Mama and Da!")

Generally the whole family is up and ready by 11am at least, unless there's activities that require them sooner. Eddie indulges his partners to no end, serving Shannon coffee in bed and giving Buck many many cuddles and kisses. Tommy rips the covers off Shannon and drags Buck out by the ankle but he also has a nice big breakfast spread prepared for them so he's forgiven easily.

WIP word game

rules: you will be given a word. then you share one sentence/excerpt from your wip(s) that starts with each letter of your word!

thanks for the tag @stereopticons 💞 my word was METAL

M - "Merperson? Merboy?”

“Either of those is fine,” Evan huffs, sliding into the water. “Anything but ‘mermaid’. C’mon while I still feel helpful.” (Buddie; Run to the water (and find me there))

E - Eddie’s eyes drop to where they’re linked. “I was going to wait until dinner, but since you asked-” 

He watches Eddie put the pieces together in real time. Watches as his gaze slides to her middle. As Eddie works to maintain a facade of anticipation. (Teddie WW2 fic)

T - The role fits like a second skin, sliding on so easily. Like a favorite article of clothing, pulled from storage and ready for the season. He’s missed it. Missed this. Missed them. (something something BuckTommy smut)

A - A secret he couldn’t hide if he wanted to. Thanks a lot, pheromones. (BEST™️ prompt)

L - “Looks aren’t the problem, Chim. It’s the brains. What good is it to have a wife that isn’t a bit of a challenge? They’re all so- boring. Nothing to make them stand out except hair and eye color. It’s like someone cloned a single personality and stuffed it into different bodies.”

One of the other men pipes up. “Just pick one, Diaz! All they care about are being taken care of and having babies. Lots and lots of babies. If you want compelling conversation, that’s what the club is for. Or you can find someone on the side for extra… entertainment.” 

Shannon was interesting. She cared about more than babies and wealth. (Buddie Bridgerton au)

mid crisis but here's firefighter AU despite 75% of the firefighters i know being absolute douchebags

[hawkinsbnbg]

Today, Mike had woken up on the wrong side of his bed so he was especially vicious as he ranted about anything he found irritating about Steve.

He hadn't even reached the midpoint when Dustin decided to rip him a new one. Which, yeah, was fair because he didn't usually do Steve that dirty. But his bad mood had taken over and he found himself arguing with Dustin.

"It's not like you don't gripe about him every day," Mike retorted heatedly. "In fact, you are the one making fun of him the most out of everybody here," he gestured widely at the others (Lucas cringed, Will looked guilty, Max and Erica high-fived each other, El nodded calmly, Eddie just gave him a little wave).

"That's because I'm his brother," Dustin said matter-of-factly while adopting Steve's signature mom pose. "But who are you? You're just his ex's brother. Without Nancy, you're just a random kid to him."

(Eddie, Max, and Erica looked at each other with the same smirk. "Oh, that burns."

Lucas just sighed helplessly as Will and El watched on in amusement.)

Mike's nostril flared indignantly. He would never ever admit this, but while he thought Steve was lame and an idiot sometimes, he respected Steve plenty. Not enough to admire, but enough to fight Dustin for him.

"So what? I know him longer than you," Mike fired back. "I have more M&M's and 3 Musketeers from him than you do, I played baseball with him every weekend, and I also watched Star Wars with him."

"You do understand what ex means, right?" Dustin narrowed his eyes at him. "Nancy's his ex-girlfriend, ergo you're his ex-something, ergo you need to stop living in the past. You know why? Because I," Dustin pointed at himself smugly, "am his favorite now. I'm the present and the future. His shotgun, his house, his pool, his snack cupboard will forever be mine, thank you very much."

And just like that, all hell broke loose.

Because not even Will was willing to accept that bullshit. Steve never had a favorite, okay? As their babysitter, he wasn't allowed to.

"What the fuck are you fighting for?" Mike glared at Erica who was (impressively) making Dustin wail like Mew on the floor.

"Steve still owes me a lifetime of free ice cream, duh," she looked at him like he was an idiot. "Stop talking shit and come help me."

A wise man once said: "Enemy's enemies are friends."

So it only took Mike a second to give her a hand.

———

"Why didn't you stop them?" Steve asked in exasperation, thinking about the fistfight that would've taken place in the Wheelers' basement had he not interfered on time.

"'Cause the more they eliminate among themselves," Eddie leaned in closer and whispered conspiratorially, "the less I gotta fight to keep you."

"But I'm their babysitter," Steve pushed him away with a finger on the forehead. "And you're supposed to make it easier for me, not harder."

"Sweetheart," Eddie grabbed his wrist and nuzzled his nose into it, "Just say the word and I'll make something harder for you right now."

"You're incorrigible," Steve rolled his eyes, but his pretty smile had betrayed his mood.

"Yeah, all because of you, baby," Eddie pressed his lips on the back of Steve's hand. "O prithee, my princess, give me the remedy."

"What if I don't have any?" Steve raised his brow.

"You do, darlin'," Eddie pulled him close and cradled his face. "My tonic is right here," a kiss on his forehead. "My joys," on his eyelids. "My happiness," on his his nose and then his mouth, "my love."

Later, when they cuddled in bed, sweet and tender after loving each other til midnight, he would tell Eddie there was no need to ask for him in the first place.

Because he had been Eddie's boy since the day the battle vest was draped on him.

It seemed Steve did have a favorite, after all.

Except, it was none of his kids.

Truly a tragedy.

Captain MacTavish is the kind of man to let you speak your mind and opinion freely in the grips of a heated argument.

If he can bellow his frustrated baritone in the midst of a rage, then so should you in your own distinctive finesse and irritated grace.

Although, it always seems to end in you gasping on your words by eating into the pillow pushed into your face.

Stifling a moan as he ruts his hips relentlessly against your ass. His hands tightly gripped into your waist, muffled praises at how proud he is of you mingled into the choked grunts as your silken walls clench around his engorged cock.

a story:

what if buck and tommy had been together already when eddie joined the 118 (buck met tommy instead of abby and tommy stayed). and what if he and shannon were still married (they had some bumps but figured it out maybe idk) and then the two couples started going on double dates. and then what if eddie found himself drawn to them in a way he’s only ever been drawn to shannon before but he feels a lot of guilt about it until shannon tells him that she’s really really into buck as well - and she very much likes tommy just not like that even tho she can see why eddie does. and they all talk about it and realize that all of the feelings are mutual all around. and a new BEST™️ universe is born.

and listen eddie and shannon need to take the whole thing slow like tommy and buck know chris but shannon and eddie are not ready for him to know as their Partners™️ and they get it except then shannon gets hit by that damn car and buck is beside himself (she doesn’t die in this universe but it’s a close call) and they like. okay. maybe this whole Big Secret thing is a Bad Idea.

anyway. that’s not really a story just a thought but. you know.

UM YEAH!!!!! Perfect! I love it. We've agonised for ages over how BEST™️ happens and this seems as good a way as any!! Them going on double dates but then sloooowly inching towards them being like, date dates, and Buck goes insane when Shannon is hit by a car is so good and juicy. GOD I love them so much, thank you for this. A thousand of my best kisses to you

Send me A Thing!

[hippolotamus]

Hello my love my darling my AU partner in crime.

Can I pretty please request some words from the beloved Buddietommyshannon fic? I'll take any scenes you're willing to share 🙏

Hello dearest darling BESTie. You may request and receive. Please have Tommy panicking about the How and Shannon teasing the hell out of him (with so much love) 🫶💖

“Uh, help? With what exactly?” Right. That would be useful information wouldn’t it? Sometimes he forgets that other people aren’t privy to the spirals happening in his brain. He picks at a loose thread on his flannel overshirt, stalling for time. “I’ve been doing some thinking. About what’s going to happen. About you and Evan. I obviously know what I’m doing with Evan, but- I wanna- Fuck, why is this so hard to say?” “Oh, I get it,” Shannon sing songs, like the brat she can be. She sits back, one elbow resting on the top of the chair. “You-” Her voice dips absurdly low and sultry while she gives him over the top bedroom eyes and sweeps her free hand over her belly, “want to put a baby in this. Don’t you?”  He purses his lips, throwing her his best faux glare while trying not to burst out laughing. “I hate you so much.” “No you don’t. You loooove me,” she teases, barely containing the smirk showing through.  “Fine! I admit it. I, Thomas Kinard, want to help with the Shannon Diaz baby agenda. Sue me.” “So, what’s the problem?”  “Other than the fact that I don’t have sex with women?” He levels her with what she calls his ‘Bitchy Gay’ face, both eyebrows raised and head tilted in a way that ‘screams condescending’. “Did you need another reason or…?”

Hi, Howdy! Hey! I really love your novel!! I got a little confused by the 4 day, may maybe you help me please? who is it? why we got the bad end staying the night in Ren’s apartment and he disappear of the home screen? I can’t understand “unset memory” game, sorry if I wrote smth wrong or smth sounds rude, I swear that I didn’t mean it if happened, I’m really a fan of the novel, I’ve been playing the game since day 1 or 2 I guess, probably day 1, english isn’t my first language, but I tried lol

⌞♥⌝ I hope you don't mind me answering these as bullet points!! ^^

"It" will be revealed later in the game! So I won't reveal too much right now.

You can only get the Dead End in Day 4 by staying at Ren's apartment — the rest of your choices before that don't matter. I'd also pay closer attention to the black smoke and Ren's reaction towards it!

Ren disappears from the home screen because he promised to help the player out (and stop them from getting the Dead End again). Try replaying the game again from the beginning for a surprise!

"Unsent Memories" was another visual novel (initially being written by @10chimes / @unsentmemory, though the project has since been dropped and handed back to me /pos) and is set in the same universe as 14 Days With You. Its storyline and characters are completely separate from 14DWY, so you don't have to worry about them while playing 14DWY.

[kelin-is-writing]

Dabi’s side profile. That’s it. That’s the post.

[diazsdimples]

Yeah see you see the vision!! They work so well because they're so different and have such unique dynamics! @hippolotamus @slightlyobsessedwitheverything and I have our ABO mpreg series on the go and we regularly torment each other with hcs about them. Welcome to the brainrot!

Hi I just have to tell you that your tags on my buddietommyshannon post have me SOBBING cause yeah!! That's exactly how they all feel!! They have such a complex relationship dynamic because there's so many personalities and couplings but it just works and I'm so glad you see the vision!

I think what I love most is that they would have such different relationships with one another but they would all get along so well and be such a strength for each other. And what’s so cool too is that you just I can feel the difference when you imagine how the dates would differ within the pairings in the relationship. Like a date with Shannon and Buck would look so much different compared to a date with Tommy and Eddie or a date with all of them together with Christopher. And that’s really neat like. And you can just see them fitting so well too if they lived together. They might need a bigger house and maybe combine two bedrooms to make a master bedroom big enough for all of them but it would work so well. They would work well together ugh you’re making me want to write a fic 😆

[jaybirdscoffee]

i don’t think i’ll ever get over the way optimus’ voice breaks just slightly when he says “and you betrayed me.” optimus felt the need to make a distinction, because yes, d-16 betrayed cybertron, but somehow worse than that, he betrayed orion. and never in a million years would orion have thought his best friend would go that far. cybertron be damned, how could d-16 betray him? optimus reserved a small piece of selfish anger, just for them. he’s mourning his best friend, himself, and the life that they could have had.
