Went over to my best friend's house to help out w her baby while she got shit done. I spent the whole day w the baby only for my friend's boyfriend to come home and immediately snatch her away before I could tell her bye. I need him to go ahead and drive off a bridge or whatever.
#literally he spends NO time w her at all. by choice.#but the second she's happily playing with me all of a sudden it's 'hiiii my princess oh my gosh my beautiful baby come to daddy!!'#I didn't get to say bye to her!! I love our byes!!#she's 10mo now so she can finally wave and she'll make the B sound so it almost sounds like bye-bye#and now she's started scrunching up her face and pressing it really hard against my cheek#and I've realized that's her version of a kiss!! she gives me kisses goodbye now!!#no lips ever make contact lmfao it's all nose and forehead but she's trying really hard!! and it's so so sweet. I love it.#I spent more time w her today than he's spent with her in two weeks. if not more.#I should be allowed to kill him I think. I really should.

TOO really released one of my favorite mini albums of 2020 and then lost a ton of members, added a bunch of members, had a total rebrand, and disbanded :/
#1 2 Count came up on shuffle#i took a lot of long walks summer 2020 and this mini album was on for so many of them#it brings me back and makes me sad#i never watched their survival show or anything but i watched that zombie mnet show they did#and was excited about them#and then boom goodbye#i lost interest pretty fast once members started leaving bc it was all the ones i liked lmfao#and the rename was just ok??? bye#also it feels weird to me when groups add members like just continue with less#especially with a survival show group just bizarre

Hello it’s 🍄 and I was wondering if you could have Quackity x reader where he teaches them Spanish swears with out he knowing so maybe there on stream on something and the reader gose to say bye or something and it’s just a swear.
Have a great day/night
hi 🍄!!! ; and yes of course !! I really like this prompt lol ; have a good day/night to you too 🫶🫶 ; fair warning I had to use Google translate so bare with me LMFAO ; this is also really short bc I deleted like 400 words bc it was just dragging along and got boring 💀💀💀
QUACKITY ; idioma [language]
summary ; Alex is a little bitch and tricks you into learning Spanish curse words
warnings ; language, google translate
genre ; fluff
word count ; 389
masterlist
You sit next to Quackity while he streams, joining him while the food you were making was cooking in the oven. He turns to you, asking if you actually understood anything when he spoke in Spanish.
"I know like, four words" You admit with a chuckle, sitting criss-cross on the chair, fidgeting with your fingers, "But no, not like, at all. Which is why I always stare at you blankly when you speak in Spanish around me"
"Do you wanna learn some basic phrases?"
You shrug, "Yeah, sure. I've been meaning to try and pick up Spanish classes." You nod and run a hand through your hair with a little smile, fully focusing on him.
"Okay..." He hums, trying to think of some basic phrases. "Let's start with hello, hey, and hi, alright?"
You nod.
"Hello is Hola, of course, pretty sure you know that" He begins, lightly smiling, "Hey is Ey, and Hi is also Hola"
You nod, giving him a thumbs up. "How would I like... introduce myself?"
He glances at his chat before turning back to you, "Well, 'Hi, my name is Y/n' would be 'Hola, mi nombre es Y/n" He informs you, "Try saying it"
"Hola... mi nombre es Y/n" You speak, talking a little broken and slightly mispronouncing words as you do so.
"Good, good, mi amor!" He smiles, "Okay, now I'll teach you a few basic phrases. 'Chupo pollas' means 'Goodbye" [I suck cocks]
"Chupo pollas?"
He giggles, "Yeah, yeah"
His chat slowly starts to gain on him, but obviously not many people notice.
"Okay, 'How is your day' translates to 'Hijo de puta" [son of a bitch]
You repeat the phrase, earning a giggle again. Your phone alarm goes off, signaling the food that was in the oven was done cooking. You quickly stand up and slide the chair to the side, waving to chat as you leave.
"Chupo pollas, chat!" You wave, quickly exiting the office.
Once the door closes, Alex's red cheeks are shown, once hidden by a hand over his mouth. He instantly cackles, explaining that he'd taught you a few nasty phrases instead of what he'd told you he was teaching you.
"Oh my fucking God, I can't believe they fell for that!"
"I didn't, you hijo de puta, you're cooked for that"
"Oh shit!"

as much as i hated 431, it baffles me even more when i see people acting like it's the end of the world for bkdk / that izuocha is canon. the week of leaks leading up to the official release had me stressed with everyone was freaking out, but the chapter was honestly so open-ended??
"deku rejected bakugo!! he doesn't want to work at his hero agency!!" his initial rejection was completely accidental. deku didn't realize that bakugo had offered him a spot at his agency. hell, even *I* didn't realize that was bakugo's offer until reading some analyses of the chapter afterwards.
even when deku realizes and still tells bakugo no thank you, it's not personal at all. he literally just affirmed to the audience that he's not an active hero right now. it wouldn't make sense for him to join an agency if he's still working full-time as a teacher. it doesn't matter who offered him a position at an agency; deku would've still declined. but that's not to say he'll never join bakugo's agency. just perhaps further down the line, and especially not as a sidekick.
"bakugo let deku walk away, he gave up chasing after him, they're not best friends anymore" BYEEE LMFAO this one made me laugh out loud. this was NOT an emotional goodbye forever scene 😹 literally in the same breath as deku waves bye, he tells bakugo to drop by ua again as a guest speaker. they've been seeing each other regularly, and they will continue to keep seeing each other. also, the only reason they're even parting ways for the night is because bakugo has an early morning the next day. otherwise, it sounds like bakugo absolutely would've been deku's ride home. don't even make me laugh. this is not "goodbye forever," this is "get home safe, see you in a few days."
"izuocha is canon!!!" BE SOOO FOR REAL RIGHT NOW. there was exactly one confirmed ship in 431 and it was mushroom girl x shadow guy from class b. izuocha shippers are welcome to interpret this however they like, but there was zero confirmation that they have a reciprocal crush on each other or get together.
they're both friends but realize they didn't get a chance to talk to each other at all at the reunion dinner. deku, remembering bakugo's life advice, decides to affirm to uraraka that she is an important friend to him and not just some rando like everyone else. he asks if she wants to catch up more since they didn't get a chance to. uraraka is still clearly struggling because of toga's death, but toga tells her not to feel held back from living just because of her death. uraraka says she also wanted to catch up, and then they DAP EACH OTHER UP LMFAOOO
i can't even begin to unpack how hilarious that last panel is, but i can't get over all the bkdk-antis saying that it was romantic. if you think that's the peak of romance i feel sorry for you 😹
the beauty of this chapter is that it's so so open-ended. you ship izuocha? feel free to interpret this through your lens. you ship something else? you can interpret it that way too (big shoutout to kamimomojiro truthers i was cheering too). you hated this chapter? horikoshi has literally given you permission to ignore it altogether
me personally i will be ignoring it and living out my bkdk fantasy 🙌

HELLO i have arrived home after seeing mason (and united) off from UCLA! here's a summary of the past 2 days:
yesterday i went to training with a sign that said "Mason LA looks good on you, but Boston would look better! Next year?" everyone read the sign and laughed, united staff were pointing at it and smiling (i hope that means they can at least try to visit boston). mason signed stuff when he got off the bus but i wasn't in that line. they went swimming instead of to the training ground so they went by golf cart. when they got back mason got off the golf cart and smiled and waved at me before going into the gym. then on his way to the bus he stopped to sign and take pics with everyone! i wrote a letter to him because i wasn't sure if i can actually talk to him and he was a little confused (i think he thought i wanted him to sign that paper but i just kept asking him if he can have it) i really hope he read the letter🙏
today was their last day in LA so most players took a lot of time to sign and take pics with the fans! i went with a sign that said "Mason can i get a goodbye hug" and erik ten hag came by specifically to read the sign and nodded at me (he went like "oooh aha" idk what that even means LMFAO). mason was one of the last ones out of training, the second he walked out of training he pointed at me and smiled. he went to everyone in the line and when he got to me I LITERALLY DIED GUYS I'M NOT KIDDING WHEN I SAY HIS FRECKLES ARE SO FREAKING CUTE HIS EYES ARE SO SOFT AND HE'S SO PERFECT. baby needs to shave tho i can't say i'm a fan of the beard... i asked him if he can sign a white bucket hat and he was like fiddling around in his hand going like where do u want me to sign? i was like uh anywhere and he laughed and said ok anywhere it is! the guys next to me (so nice btw they helped film and take photos of me and mase) told him i'm the "president of the mason fan club in LA" and he blushed. i asked him if i can get a hug and he was like ofc course! i'm sad to report that he doesn't really smell like anything in particular (he also just got out of training/ice bath so at least it's good he didn't smell bad!) -- also sidenote: harry maguire's cologne is so strong💀
anyways when they came out of the gym to go to the bus he waved bye to me before he left... my life is literally completely... also the entire united staff (and ucla staff) knows me i'm lwk embarrassed💀
Answering this before I got to sleep so everyone can see but I’m so happy for you girl he seems like the sweetest little bean ���� and it’s so nice everyone helped you

Ok I wanted to talk about this on my twitter but realized it will appeal to no one so its going here. Being autistic about critter character designs. VERY LONG
Pim/Charlie/Allan/Glep have interesting designs to me like they are some of my favorite character designs possibly in any cartoon cause they're all very well balanced - easy to draw, cute, but slightly ugly also. Well maybe not ugly but certainly not Conventional.
(Glep applies slightly less there, he's just straight up a cute lil guy, how plushies don't exist of him yet baffles me)
I like their slight offputting quirks, like, Allan's spine is visible, Pim's Teeth. They are just strange creatures and I enjoy that. Of course there's also the fact all of their frontfacings (maybe slightly excluding pim's) are just kinda goofy and bizarre looking.
Its just, the choices being made here are really good, okay. They're very appealing lined up, yknow.
The fact they are just kinda cute sometimes makes the expressions being pushed and the weird quirks funnier. If pim was an ugly lil freak all the time it would be less effective when he does that weird awkward toothy laugh. Which brings me to my next "Point" which is like, I really enjoy that they are some of the only critters that arent.... fugly as hell
There are some few exceptions with BG/side characters (just look at amy, shes a pretty gal) but like, most of the side critters that have gotten screentime are very very strange. Allan's landlord is a prime recent example. Look at that guy. Jesus christ.
This is not to say the uglier designs are Bad, quite the opposite, I love when they are hideous <3 But the whole thing is, if the main characters we see every episode were on the same level as them appearance-wise it would get very tired. This is probably like, entry level design stuff for a cartoon, and not very interesting to anyone lol, but with adult cartoons it feels like it can go way too hard on the ugly scale.
Onto the next thing thats been on my mind lately when it comes to critters - I enjoy that their appearances truly are pretty random. Its fun to make things like crittersonas cause like, you can almost do whatever the hell you want lol
I like that some of them just dont feel like wearing clothes, this was talked about by Michael on twitter at some point a few years back I think.
Their hair is a topic that kind of mystifies me lmfao like we see the wiry sparse hair a lot (gnarly, filmore, etc) but then there are characters like amy, pims dad and duncan that have more full human-esque hair. This makes me wonder if its like, randomly possible for some critters to get full heads of hair, or if wigs/hair transplants are a thing, or even if hairloss is just more common which results in the wiry hair later in life. Really NOT important or compelling to anyone but me but I seriously do think about this. Critter Hair Essay coming soon (i'm kidding ............. or am i?)
Also just like, the concept of what critter beauty standards or smth could be sort of interests me, but this is getting incomprehensibly long and stupid anyway, and I would have to be going into heavy Speculation Mode there. so BYE Goodbye

A warm May evening
A/N: Two fics in 24 hours wow! I'm inspired honestly, don't expect such consistency from me lmfao, anyway have this cute ass little fic I made. I just had this idea with Frankie and it was so beautiful, like.. you two having a kid? Perfection.
This takes place like 5 years after the movie btw
Pairing: father!reader x father!Frankie Morales OFCs: Yours and Frankie's daughter, Carmen :)
CWs: Kissing but in a non sexual way, you two have an adopted kid, reader obviously has masc pronouns as it says in the pairing, established relationship (marriage), also just a little Spanish at the end cause my hispanic ass can't write something without spanish when it's a hispanic character I'm writing.
REBLOG MY WORK IF YOU LIKE IT, DON'T JUST HEART IT!! IT HELPS ME REACH MORE PEOPLE AND GIVES ME MOTIVATION TO WRITE MORE!! RESPECT YOUR WRITERS!!
“Frankie, come on, we’re waiting!” you shouted upstairs, wondering whatever the fuck was taking your husband so goddamn long to come down. It was a beautiful mid May afternoon, a golden light outside bathed the street and hinted at dawn. Carmen was waiting too, she was your adopted daughter that you and Frankie loved to pieces. She was a lively girl from Mexico whose parents couldn’t make it. It was just giving a child who had lost hope at having parental love being adopted and given a second chance at a family, it made everything even more endearing. You had adopted her when she was 1, now she was 5 and she obviously had to socialize and make friends, and the park was the perfect place to do so.
“Okay okay I’m coming” he said as he hurried down the stairs, looking at you when he stopped, “We ready?” he asked, “Yup” you replied and Frankie walked over to you and gave you a peck on the lips, I’m so sorry for taking so long…” you smiled at the gesture, Carmen just made that disgusted face that children make when they see their parents kiss. You walked out onto the street, Carmen ahead of you, wanting to get to the park already as you and Frankie took in the late spring beauty, flowers on the sidewalk with beautiful flowering trees, sometimes you wondered what you had done that life had been kind to you in the past years, after Frankie failed his mission in Colombia it seems like life had some mercy on you two.
You held Frankie’s hand and looked at him, despite you having been married for years, you still found him the most beautiful man in the world, his eyes, his nose, his stubble, you were in love with this man. You stared back and smiled at each other as he squeezed your hand tighter. You arrived at the park and sat on a bench close to the playground, “Okay Carmen, you can go now, have fun” Frankie smiled at her, “Bye dad!” she said as she went off to play. “You’re an amazing dad” Frankie smiled, complimenting you, “You too” was all you could say, “And a great husband…” he said as he smiled and laid his head on your shoulder, you smiled and kissed the tip of his nose, it was your own little gesture between the two of you. Frankie’s happiness was over the roof, you knew how much of a family man he was and an evening at the park with his husband and his daughter was amazing, even if it seemed something so mundane.. he liked that, he liked everyday things, he liked little moments. You kept an eye on Carmen so that she wouldn’t get into trouble. She was playing in the sandbox with some other kids, making castles and with some cars some other children had brought, your hands were still intertwined with Frankie’s. You sat in a comfortable silence. Carmen played tag with the kids when they got tired of the sandbox as you and Frankie talked about many things, money, reminded each other that you loved the other, and gave each other little kisses. When the sun started to go down and some kids started to leave, you and Frankie stood up to go home. “Carmen, time to go home!” you shouted, she pulled an angry face as she said goodbye to her new friends as she ran over to you two, “Did you have a good time?” Frankie asked her, “Yes! I made friends!” she replied happily, you smiled at your husband, you were proud of your daughter.
The trip home was filled with conversations and laughter in the dim evening light, it was all so beautiful and so perfect. As you arrived at the front door of your house, you warmed up a bath for Carmen and decided to split tasks with Frankie, “I’ll bathe Carmen, you make dinner?” he asked you,
“Yeah” you smiled and turned around,
“Querido” he stopped you, your heart fluttered at the name as your husband roped you in for a kiss in the lips, kind of long but not suggestively, “This was one of the best evenings in my life” he smiled at you, “Mine too, te quiero, hermoso…” “Yo más” he said as he kissed your neck, “Okay okay, we can do this later, let’s take care of Carmen first” you said with a chuckle, Frankie smiled and laughed as he went into the bathroom and you went to the kitchen.

Alive Hugo Headcanon/Theories
Hey, first of all I’m kinda surprised there are so many fans of a story on Reddit. I’m all for it though lmao.
“I’m a guard stationed at a secret government prison” is like one of my favorite stories I’ve ever read. I was listening to The Dark Somnium’s narration (for like the 4th time) while reading along and I couldn’t help but wonder if Hugo could still be alive.
We never actually see Hugo’s death, all we know is that Kael gave him a nice goodbye, but for all we know Hugo could have just fell unconscious or something. Now I love Kael, but is it possible he maybeeee could have stayed by Hugo’s side for a few minutes before leaving, thinking he’d die any second?
Theory #1
Basically Kael bit Hugo turning him into a vampire. Now you may be thinking “but wouldn’t Kael say something when the battle was over or ask to go back for Hugo?” Well what if he did it accidentally and didn’t know he did?
Now we know from Kael’s backstory that to turn someone into a vampire you basically need to bite into their neck. In part 3, we see Kael use his fangs on the Gladiator’s shoulder and tore a chunk out so he can also use it as a weapon.
But what if Kael meant to use it as a weapon but accidentally made Hugo a vampire? In part 2, during their fight, it says that Kael “bit into his neck” not his shoulder, not his arm, but his neck. I’m not totally sure how that whole vampire thing works but assuming it depends on the type of bite, intentional or not, Kael could have accidentally bit Hugo a specific way or in a specific place that would turn him into a vampire.
When we see Kael getting turned into a vampire, he passes out relatively quickly after the bite. While Hugo is human (sort of), he has that weird power that could possibly delay or maybe even prevent him from passing out. In part 3, he does pass out after the battle, that could just be because of his wounds but it could also possibly be because he was bitten and the passing out was just delayed. In part 3, Hugo stated that he generates the same as any ordinary man. If he can’t regenerate fast, how could he already be able to walk by the next time we see Hugo and Kael? Hugo gradually turning into a vampire would also explain how he miraculously stays alive even after being beaten to a pulp. It would also mean that Hugo’s still alive although badly injured.
Theory #2
Hugo’s power just basically saved him.
In part 2, the main character (does he even have a name?) states that Hugo’s ‘holy mission’ was basically to kill everyone including himself.
Hugo says something on the lines of “God won’t let me die until I finish out my holy mission”.
Now I’m pretty sure by the end of the story there’s still people alive so that would mean his ‘holy mission’ wasn’t completed, correct?
Yeah my second theory is pretty straightforward anyways.
Theory #3
So what if Kael bit Hugo when he (Hugo) was about to die?
So similar to my first theory, I’m think what if Kael bit Hugo - not by accident though.
I’m pretty sure dude has no freaking idea how his whole vampire shit works so maybe he bit Hugo while he was dying and incapacitated, without knowing if it would work or not? Like bro just woke up a vampire one day (sparing the gruesome details) and I’m pretty sure he hasn’t turned anyone into a vampire since he was turned so he could have bit Hugo in a last ditch effort (lmfao), thought it didn’t work, and just left him.
These are all the theories and examples I can think of at the moment, so bye ✌️.
P.S. This used to be titled “Hugo Vampire AU Theory” but I changed it so I could add more of my theories.

hi ken!!! for the self ship asks how about sunrise for you and satoru and moonlight for you and sanemi <3
hi pretty baby!!! thank you for asking <333
sunrise - what does your morning routine look like?
our morning routine is all but identical at this point because what are we if not attached at the hip.
wake up and spend an hour working out aka half assed walking/jogging and bothering each other on the treadmills. shower together, still yapping about whatever. get semi dressed, get kiddo up, and make breakfast and have coffee, usually he takes his to go bc he’s busy. make him late by spending 20 minutes saying goodbye to each other at the door, remind him to be safe, then satomi comes and says bye to him for another 20 minutes making him even more late bc neither of us want him to go. then by that point its time to get her off to school which i handle.
moonlight - what does a summer’s night look like for the two of you?
we have to work hard to stick to routine to make sure we both sleep well and enough so our schedule is strict-ish. especially in isekai au bc he’s still a demon slayer. this feels true for modern au too tho…
dinner at 7 usually enjoyed outside watching the sun go down and listening to windchimes. usually with a little sake in isekai/canon au or a glass of wine in modern. shower/bathe together by 8:30, lose track of time because we were talking about dreams or goals or our day and finally finish by 9:30. then getting ready for bed but we still want to talk so going back out to the porch/outside area to talk some more and watch the moon. making out, definitely touching bc we are now sleepy and relaxed and Needy bc we love listening to the other talk, so taking the party inside to have sex and then eventually pass out post coitus (for me post post coitus pee) and naked lmfao around 11:30 or so

#rvb nonsense#THEY MAKE ME SO UPSET LMFAO#something something tucker and wash get along so well bc they fill in those gaps that church and carolina leave#like in a friend way and a familial way and a partner kinda way#carolina and church just do as they please when it pleases them and dont play all that well with others which would be fine if they werent#also like. so heavily and deeply interpersonally entwined with everyone else#yknow??

I knew it was going to be painful, but this episode just gutted me all over again.
Spoilers for TLOU Episode 5
Making Sam deaf was such a powerful choice. It makes him simultaneously more reliant on Henry and makes Henry more fiercely protective of Sam.
The added background was perfect in my opinion, it was just enough to help us learn more about them, while still giving us plenty of opportunity to learn things about them through Joel and Ellie.
"He's scared because you're scared" and then Henry pretending not to be scared for Sam. Yeah. I'm crying again.
And then the "this place is ugly" and Henry pulling out a huge bag of crayons and coloring on the walls with him? This Henry is a lot softer than the Henry in the game (similar to Joel) and I think it works so well, especially because Sam's younger than Sam in the game.
The Super Sam paint
"He always sounds like that, he has an asshole voice" Ellie reading him to filth with a gun to her head LMFAO
Joel giving Sam the piece of paper GOODBYE
Really masterful job teaching the audience the term "collaborator" through Joel, especially since it's world-specific language that isn't in the game.
Sam's laugh <3
The whole thing with Kathleen and refusing to forgive...hmmmmmmmmmm much to think about (cough cough Part 2)
Joel's little head shake when Ellie pulls the gun out of her pocket instead of her backpack...I am obsessed with them.
The entire scene in the tunnels, the way it was straight out of the game was everything to me. The paint on the walls, the goal paint, Savage Starlight, and, of course, the Danny and Ish drawing, and it being an exact replica of the drawing you find in the game.
It is unbelievable to me that they made Henry and Sam's story even sadder. Henry's put in an impossible situation, backed into a corner to either let his brother die of cancer or become a FEDRA informant against the resistance. And he chooses his brother. I can't say I would have done any different.
I also live how they basically told the audience point blank "Every single character in this story is morally grey. Everyone is a villain in someone's story." Hmmmmm excellent setup for a certain Part 2.
I also love how much more vulnerable Henry is in the show than in the game. He's not a hardened survivor, he's a kid who made an impossible choice to save his brother, and he will happily rely on Joel if Joel lets him.
The neighborhood is such a setpiece, my stomach literally dropped when I saw those houses because I knew what was coming.
"Do you trust me?" BYE I LOVE THEM
Combining the bridge and the neighborhood was a great idea.
"Maybe he was supposed to die." Bitch. Maybe your brother was supposed to die. Consider that.
The infected are so much more intense, the way the runners swarm, the way clickers can hear every tiny sound, and then there's the fucking bloater. It's much more frightening than the infected in the game, probably because the game actually had to be beatable lmao.
Ellie is so important to me, I love her so much.
I'm really glad Sam showed her, even though I knew that the blood medicine wouldn't work, I'm glad he didn't have to be alone.
I think that Henry and Sam's death scene in particular was one of the only things in the entire game that I wanted to remain almost exactly the same in the show, and would have been disappointed if there were huge changes. It, to me, remains a triumph in the first game. Their deaths are jarring, completely unexpected, and with no closure, and I think that it had to remain the same.
Neil has said that they would take a look at what they could change and if it felt better, they would change it, and if it didn't, they would leave it alone, and I'm glad they left it alone.
"I'm sorry" on his grave. This adds a really interesting layer to Ellie's journey. She already feels guilty for Tess and (unbeknownst to the tv audience as of now, Riley) but now she feels guilty for Sam too, and that her immunity couldn't save Sam.
There's so much that I love about this episode, but in particular I love how much more richness Lamar and Keivonn brought to already beloved characters. I loved their relationship, and how much softer Henry in particular was, and I loved how Sam looked up to Ellie, how he trusted her with that secret and his fears.
It looks to me like we're going all the way through fall in the next episode, it's going to be painful to wait nine days.
Another absolute triumph of a tv episode, Craig and Neil once again owe me for therapy.

Assumed Dead
Pietro x Reader
Word count: 1809
Author notes: this is the longest oneshot i have ever written lmfao
About two months ago you were sent on a mission at a HYDRA base. You, Steve, and Nat were sent. You were supposed to retrieve classified files about weapons and secret bases. Only two of you guys came back. You weren't one of them.
Lets take a step back for a moment though, to before the mission. You and Pietro had met via Wanda thinking you would be a good match for each other.
I mean, she wasn't wrong, but neither of you wanted to admit it. Wanda heard her brother's rambling about you and Nat heard yours about him. A few weeks of flirting and pissing the two off eventually led you two to dating.
You loved Pietro and he loved you back. When you broke the news that you'd be gone for a few months he begged you not to go. But you had to, you promised that the moment you got back you would hang out with him for the whole day.
Now, the mission.
The three of you split up once you got to the base.
Bad.
Idea.
You each found rooms with the information you were looking for. In the middle of it, though, one of the HYDRA members that hadn't been killed, found one of the bombs at the base.
In short, the base blew up while only you were about to leave.
Steve and Natasha searched the rubble endlessly for any sign of you. After a few days of searching, they gave up.
The mission was supposed to last at least four months. It was cut in half because one agent was left alive accidentally.
On the way back home, Nat and Steve had to figure out how to break the news to everyone. They knew Pietro would be heartbroken.
Steve called Fury to inform him about the situation.
"Rogers why are you calling me?! You're on a mission!"
"It... Got cut short.."
"What do you mean.." The concern in Fury's voice was evident after the sadness in Steve's.
"Someone blew up the base.."
Silence came from the other end.
Natasha spoke up, "Y/n.. Didn't make it out.."
Before Fury could respond Steve chipped in again, "Please dont tell the team. We'll do it when we get back.."
"Did you find the body?" It was a question that needed to be asked for legal purposes.
"No.." Natasha said, her voice shakey.
"Alright. I'll send out a team to look for it. Get home safe."
"Mhm.. Bye.."
"Goodbye."
Click
With that, the two broke down into tears.
Eventually they texted the team that they were on their way home, that they had gotten done with the mission early and to be in the meeting room once they got there.
About 3 hours later, they arrived back at the tower. They both took a minute to clean themselves up before walking to the meeting room.
The two each took a breath before opening the door.
In the room was Clint, Bucky, Tony, Pietro, Wanda, and Bruce.
"Welcome bac-" Pietro cut himself off, noticing that one of the three were missing, and noticing the sad looks on the two that were there.
It only took about 10 seconds for him to speak up again and ask the two the dreaded question.
"Where's Y/n..?"
Steve instantly began to cry again. Natasha shook her head for a moment before just saying, "I'm sorry.."
Everyone's eyes went wide and filled with tears. Pietro's heart shattered.
He began to sob, mumbling "no no no no no no..."
( this font is for you
This font is for the team : )
Despite some serious injuries, you were alive. When the base exploded, you got sent flying back quite a bit.
Where the base was, there was a crap ton of snow that recently fell, so your black outfit stuck out like a sore thumb.
Turned out not to be so bad.
---------
Wanda tried to hug her brother, but he ran off to his room.
At this point every one in the room was crying.
Natasha was being hugged by Clint, Steve hugged by Bucky.
Wanda had her head in her hands, sobbing uncontrollably. For her it was a mix of missing you, and her brother being so heart broken.
Tony and Bruce headed off to their labs to cry by themselves.
---------
You had a major concussion, your left wrist was sprained, you had a gash on your right shoulder, and your right leg was broken.
The concussion gave you horrible coordination, so you fell over quite a few times while trying to find anything or anyone.
You had seen your two friends leave, so you couldn't exactly look for them. Though you knew how Fury operated. He'd send out a search team for you, or rather your body as you were presumed dead.
A few days later, that's exactly what happened.
--------
Pietro hadn't come out of his room. Everyone was worried about him and mourning over you.
Wanda left food and water out his door that every day would get taken in at some point.
Steve and Natasha felt guilty even though they couldn't have done anything to save you. They didn't know about the bomb or the random agent that was still alive.
Fury felt guilty for sending you. He knew there were bombs there and knew you wouldn't leave until you got what you went there for.
You were the one who held the team together. The one who congratulated Bucky when he remembered something new. The one who stopped Steve and Tony's fighting. The one who helped the science bros with things when they couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. You stopped dumb fights over movies and whatnot. You were one of the only people there that knew how to comfort everyone if they had a nightmare. The one who helped Wanda with her powers. The one who sparred with everyone to help their fighting style get better. The one who baked cookies and pies to cheer the others up after a failed mission.
With you gone, the team fell apart. Steve and Tony fought more than they ever had.
Science bros rarely had the motivation to finish any projects.
Wanda didn't practice her powers anymore.
No one comforted each other when nightmares hit.
It was chaotic without you.
-------
Three days after Steve and Natasha left, Fury's search group showed up.
They found you quite quickly considering your outfit and the blood trail that started whenever you fell over.
Once the searchers found you, still alive nonetheless, you were rushed to the hospital.
You were suffering from hypothermia, your injuries had gotten worse other than the concussion, which actually kind of started to get better.
You requested to not tell the team that you were alive. You wanted to surprise them once you got better.
After about a week in the hospital, you were free to head back to the tower. You had stitches on your shoulder, surgery on your leg followed by a cast and crutches, a brace on your arm, and a nearly healed concussion.
-----------
Pietro had finally come out of his room and sat on the couch for most of the day, watching Steve and Tony fight.
Everyone else was in the vicinity, Natasha and Wanda in the kitchen, Clint and Bruce were sitting near Pietro, and Bucky was poorly trying to stop the never ending fight.
Over all the yelling, no one heard you come up the elevator. Upon taking a few steps out you shouted over the two.
"Damn! You guys were so loud you woke the dead!"
It went silent.
Natasha covered her mouth in shock.
Wanda peaked her head into the room and her jaw dropped.
Tony and Steve stopped yelling and just stared at you.
Pietro ran up to you and hugged you a bit too tightly.
"T-too tight my love.."
He let go of you and started crying again. This time happy tears.
By this point, it had been over 3 months since anyone saw you alive, other than Nat and Steve, for them it was only two weeks, but it still felt like an eternity.
Pietro helped you walk back to the couch, aka, he picked you up and ran back there to sit you down.
Your head spun a bit. "Pietro, I love you, but please, let's not do that for a bit.."
By now everyone was in the living room, staring at you.
"Okay geez what's with the staring? It's kinda weird." You rolled your eyes.
"Angel, for the past.. Like.. Month, we thought you were dead. It's kinda weird to just.. See you again."
You explained what had happened to you. How you had multiple injuries. How you nearly bled out multiple times. Then you mentioned that you purposefully didn't inform them that you were alive.
"WE WEREN'T TOLD ON PURPOSE?!" Pietro shrieked like a little kid seeing their parents kiss.
"Love, too loud, I literally just said that I still have a concussion."
"Sorry, but still!"
"I wanted to surprise you guys. I knew you thought I was dead, hell, I saw Steve and Natasha's faces when they gave up looking for me. I could barely see them but the look of defeat was obvious."
The room went as quiet as it had been when your 'death' was announced.
"Aaaaanyway! I can see the tower has gone to chaos while I was gone!" You broke the silence, trying to lighten the mood, "Tony and Steve apologize to each other for whatever crap you were fighting about."
They just glared at you. You jabbed both of them in the shins with your crutches. Then they gave each other a half assed apology, but it was good enough for you.
"How about we watch a movie!" You smiled, figuring it'd be a nice way to get back with everyone.
Pietro grabbed the remote and handed it to you. Lucky for you, the brace was on your dominant hand, mixed with the passing concussion, you dropped the remote multiple times.
"I swear to god if I drop this one more time trying to get to this movie I'm gonna-" With that, you drop it again.
Pietro laughs a bit, then helps you put on your favorite movie. You give him a kiss on the cheek, which he quickly turned into one on the lips.
"Get a room!" Wanda said, chucking a pillow at her brother. He caught it and threw it back at her.
As the movie started, you and Pietro cuddled closely together, you had to work around the cast and brace, but the two of you made it work.
As you started to fall asleep, you smiled to yourself before looking at Pietro and whispering, "I kept my promise.."

Temenos would have tried to pull the scheme of “Okay since you technically live here now you have to help pay rent” with Kazan in the Persona au before Crick just tells him to cut it out.
Bonus points if Kazan actually does keep records down on how much he technically needs to pay and by the end of the whole canon he just writes Temenos a check, gives it to him, and then says that’s his rent. There. That’s how he just says bye to Temenos. God forbid they ever meet again.
HE WOULD ABSOLUTELY TRY TO PULL THAT. Kazan paying him back at the end of everything as goodbye is actually so bittersweet. The only problem is if Kazan actually has the money to pay him lmfao-
Despite his habits he could definitely come up with a scheme to pay him back, before ultimately trying to leave for good (and hopefully to take his sister with him).
