Happy Valentines, u/catartkd!
My gift for the @goodomensafterdark valentines exchange đ
(Timelapse and ramblings under the cut as usual :P)
OKAY SO CATARTKD DID SOME AMAZING ARTWORK INSPIRED BY MUCHA A WHILE BACK AND I COULDN'T TAKE THEM FROM MY MIND. That's it đ you can find them here:
I really like Art Nouveau. Everything is just so delicate, light and also complex. The curves and the symmetry, it's all so pleasing... and that also extends to the architecture. And one of the things that I find the the prettiest in that architectural style are the stained glass panels and metal work. I mean-

LOOK AT THAT. anyways.
You know what also has a shitton of stained glass?? CHURCHS. Catholic imagery and stuffs like that, and we are talking about an angel and a demon... it just felt appropriate to take inspiration from that too!
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/0f4f102e9d5f24247bebe3af4d619fe5/e1b66407079138b0-4c/s1280x1920/c568b6470bfa3933fd99dea5e4604e77038e052d.jpg)
(Highly recommend visiting r/StainedGlassHeaven and r/StainedGlass if you fuck with this shit. Humans are fascinating, and the glass work is INSANELY beautiful.)
So I tried to mix all of that - Catartkd's art, Mucha's work, stained glass and religious imagery. This was my brain lol
Did it work? I'm not really sure, but it was fun. Really fun. I loved it and I was able to include a lot of little details that talk about Crowley and Aziraphale, and also â¨ď¸symmetry â¨ď¸. Man. My Brain was so fucking happy with the symmetry. Everything is balanced and has pairs or is mirrored. It scratched my brain sooooo good.
I'm really tempted to point out all the little details that I put there, but what's the fun in that?? The only thing I will say is about Crowleyâs hair. I have no real explanation for this but everytime that I saw this type of hair piece/hairstyle in paintings and historical movies I could only think of snakes. I have no idea why. But my brain immediately screams SNAKE everytime I see this shape. So I had to use this shape for naga!crowley's hair.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/a6566d9304234fbabd170f44318b60c0/e1b66407079138b0-0d/s540x810/22c9b422902e065921413b4262e874d6fc02201c.jpg)
In my very very basic research for refs I discovered that this thing is apparently French?? So you know, it fits with Art nouveau too in my mind. Same place yk. (Shhhh I know it doesn't make that much sense but as I said, I needed to include it. This is the snake hair after all, the voices in my head said so).
I also played a bit with the composition which was a very good study, but there was two things that I loved the most to learn in this one. The first, was this video I stumbled upon while I searched about Mucha's work:
youtube
LINE WEIGHTS. OMG. This is soooo cool. I already use this on a daily basis in my work (we have norms and patterns for line weight we must follow in technical architecture drawings) but for some reason it never occurred to me that I could use it in art??? And that my favorite art works use this very well??? I see this applied constantly in the cartoons I love, in videogames (I'm looking at you point&clicks!!), in classic artworks (like Mucha's)... Idk why I never clocked that, but now that I did I will practice and use that more. I don't think I used line weights in the best possible way in this art work. I feel it could be waaaay better, but I really LOVE how the effect turned out.
The second thing is â¨ď¸body proportionâ¨ď¸. I was asking for advice and @gribouli as always came to my rescue and pointed out it to me... I didn't know about the head rule-
(This thing)
-and they helped me adjust my drawing and gave me tips and all đđđ I will never be able to thank them enough. Their support means the world to me and I honestly feel so privileged đđ (I also used Elenthya's wings here again, obv because ever since she explained them to me my life changed)
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/dca1bb831cd91fe35069f9bbc2c7b1ca/e1b66407079138b0-c6/s540x810/62ed07b5a6b0035e0cadb4a921aaa74da8dc37d0.jpg)
Just so you can understand this was the sketch before Li's help:
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/fa3b9e138fafa03a883b5fffbd22a956/e1b66407079138b0-37/s540x810/0462dc38311ef9cc0895c67c02b4bfd589932089.jpg)
BIG HEADS LOL I know disproportional bodies can be used very effectively (we see them everywhere, especially in cartoons!) But the point is those design choices are intentional. They're choices. These big big heads weren't. I just never studied anatomy and stuff, I'm learning the very basics now, so this was an accident (not a happy one lol).
This is it. I'm really loving learning more about art in practice. Drawing and painting has been kind of therapeutic lately XD and registering the process and the things I've learned in each piece has been especially nice. Being able to look back at my progress is helping me continue!
I'm thinking doing a Steven Universe one next đ

Run â Jasper Hale (smut)
This is dark, please be aware of the warnings! Please like and reblog if you enjoyed reading this, your comments keep us writers motivated. Enjoy my loves. xxx
Summary: Jasper is up for a chase to finally claim (y/n); basically just pwp
Warnings: 18+, smut, outdoor piv, rough piv, heavy dubcon, dark!Jasper, chasing/being hunted, choking
Pairing: Jasper Hale x fem!reader (2k words)
The sound of leaves being crushed beneath her boots rang in (y/n)âs ears. She had her eyes focused on the trail, surrounded by trees, as she kept on walking. She had been desperate for a distraction â some time away from her home and the walls that kept closing in on her whenever her thoughts began to wander.
Soft rain was falling from the sky, slowly soaking through her sweater, barely managing to protect her from the cold creeping up her limbs like a snake slithering from Eden. (Y/n) tried to keep herself focused on the steps she took, careful not to trip over branches and stones as her surroundings grew darker. She wasnât a stranger to this trail; she had walked it numerous times before, but today it felt different, darker, and more haunting than all those times she had walked it with a friend.
Her body jerked to a halt as the sound of a branch snapping apart rang in her ears. Goosebumps rose on her skin, just like the hairs at the nape of her neck. She could instantly tell she wasnât alone. Even though her mind told her that it had probably just been a deer, her gut told her something different.Â
âHello?â (Y/n)âs soft voice echoed through the dark forest, carried by the rain that now fell heavier, as if Mother Nature was warning her, telling her child to return home before she could lose her shot at this life. A shaky exhale left (y/n) as she slowly turned back around, knowing that it was time to leave this forest for good. But she didnât get far, once again forced to a halt as her eyes found a pair of golden ones. âJasper?â
The man stared at her; he was standing a few feet away from her, studying (y/n) with a smirk glued to his pale lips. His smirk had something dangerous about him â something that made her heart beat faster, telling her to prepare for whatever was about to come upon her.Â
âJasper? Are you alright?â Her voice wavered as her eyes stayed glued to Jasperâs features. She had always been interested in him â the one who had always managed to draw her closer without many words shared between them, the one who had always piqued her interest as if her body and soul knew that heâd do her good. At least until this very moment.Â
âRun.â The second the words had left Jasper, (y/n)âs body forced her to run, stumbling down the trail as she ran as fast as her legs managed to carry her. Tears welled up in her eyes as fear began to nibble on her soul, whispering to her that her end was near, telling her that whatever Jasper was about to do to her would leave her trembling and panting.Â
âYouâre fast; thatâs admirable.â He was suddenly standing in front of her, catching (y/n)âs frame as she collided with his frame. She was shaking like a leaf in his grasp, staring up at the man who still wore that sinister smirk paired with the look that told her she wouldnât manage to escape him.Â
âWhat do you want from me?â One tear managed to drip from her eye â a tear he caught with his thumb, wiping away the salty drop. Jasper forced her to move with him, allowing him to press her against an old tree. She was trapped between Jasperâs front and the tree, telling her that there was no escaping, forced to follow his every command.
âYouâve always been a frightened little thing, havenât you, darlinâ?â Jasperâs voice dripped with something she couldnât pinpoint, drawing another shaky exhale from her parted lips. âI always felt your eyes on me, wondering what you were thinking about. Tell me, darlinâ, were you scared of me?â
(Y/n) could only shake her head, unable to reply with words. It was true â she hadnât feared him back then, drawn closer by her curiosity and the crush on him she had always fostered. Jasperâs chuckles forced her to flinch, staring up at him as he dipped his head down, his lips almost ghosting over hers.Â
âAnd now? Are you scared?â It took her a second to react. Even though her mind told her to speak up and tell Jasper that she wasnât scared, her body whispered to her to close the gap between them. There was no use in running; she could only win if she managed to distract him.Â
She shifted her weight onto her toes to close the gap, letting her lips press against his cold ones, a shared kiss she had always dreamt of as a teenager â wondering how it must feel to be kissed by the mysterious guy. Jasper instantly reacted to the touch, pushing her against the tree once again while cupping her cheek with his right hand, while the other found her waist.
He forced her lips apart, letting his tongue meet hers in a possessive manner â she was his at that very moment, the one to follow his every command, the one to chase, the one to hunt, the one to own. The soft moan clawing through (y/n) left Jasper chuckling in glee, parting from her to give her a few moments to catch her breath while he stared down at her.Â
âHow about a deal?â Jasper murmured his words, while (y/n) was heavily panting, struggling to wrap her head around the past moments. She stared up at him with confusion tugging on her features, waiting for him to keep on speaking to explain to her what he wanted to do to her. âIâll give you another shot at running, but if I catch you, Iâll get to fuck you out here.âÂ
âWhat?â Her words were followed by a few chuckles, not believing the words he had just murmured. But the hand finding her throat, pinning her head against the old tree, cut off any sounds from leaving her, forcing her to quiet down.Â
âIâm not in the mood for jokes, darlinâ. Do we have a deal?â (Y/n) was all too aware that he hadnât told her about what would happen should she manage to escape, but deep down she was well aware that she couldnât outrun him â not after the chase that had happened only minutes ago.Â
The second she slowly nodded, Jasper gave her a push, letting go of her throat. Her body was aching as (y/n) began running, not daring to look back to try and get as much distance between her and Jasper. Her heart was pounding, and her lungs were begging for some air, but she couldnât give in and was solemnly focused on running. Whatever was happening left her torn between fear and excitement; she was not used to seeing Jasper like this.Â
He seemed like a predator, as if he had done this chasing thing before, knowing exactly how it would play out. (Y/n) could only hope that he hadnât done this with other women, not liking the thought of Jasper claiming other women. While her thoughts began to wander, the thick trees blurred by, past her running self that would give in way too soon, unable to fight against her exhaustion.Â
But before (y/n) could even think about slowing down, she was ripped to the ground, her eyes forced to meet his darkening ones. Jasper was hovering over her, straddling her aching body to keep her trapped once again.Â
âI won.â Those were the last words Jasper spoke before pulling her back onto her feet. Everything moved too fast; one second she was pressed against his front, and the next he had her back pressed against another tree. His tongue fought its way back into her mouth, not giving (y/n) a chance to protest as he undid the button of her jeans. âI canât wait to claim your cunt; I bet youâre already needy for me, arenât you?â
Something inside of her forced (y/n) to shake her head, momentarily overcome by fear as it began to dawn on her what would happen in the next moments. It was true, her body begged for him, wanting to feel him buried deep inside of her while he fucked her against the tree, but her mind forced her to snap out of her hazy thoughts. This wasnât right. It shouldnât be like this. But fuck, she wanted him â every part of him.Â
âNo? You arenât? So my fingers wonât be coated in your arousal when I touch you?â He pushed his hand into her panties, groaning at the feeling of her arousal sticking to her folds. She had been dripping for him since their first kiss, overcome by her needs â the deep need to be claimed by Jasper in the most primal way imaginable. âYou liar.â
She choked on her gasps as he pushed two fingers into her tightness, while his cold lips found her pulsepoint. (Y/n) heard him chuckling, a sound that sounded all too far away as she was sucked into a trance, solemnly focused on his touch. His cold thumb found her pulsing bundle, circling it with quick movements to leave her shuddering.Â
âI should punish you for lying to me, but for tonight, Iâll let it pass. Iâve been dreaming of your tight cunt for too long.â And then everything began to spin, one second he had his fingers buried inside of her, and the next he had pulled away to force (y/n) to step out of her jeans. Within seconds, he had picked her up, only to force his cock into her tightness.
Both moaned in unison at the unfamiliar sensation, bodies being united for the first time, finally giving in to their longing. Jasper fucked her against the tree as if it was their only shot, the only moment theyâd get together, a man on a mission, while (y/n) lost all grasp on reality. Tears dripped from her eyes, running down her cheeks as if every fear was leaving her body, slowly allowing her to relax. Whatever power Jasper held over her, it guided her like an invisible force, forgetting every darkening sensation.
âYouâre even tighter than I thought; youâre perfect for me.â She gasped against his lips, tugging on her blonde curls to try and stop herself from giving in too fast. Jasper fucked her rougher than she had ever been fucked before; he didnât care about bruising her or the air she needed to breathe, letting his hand rest on her throat all too carelessly.Â
(Y/n) should have cared; she should have pushed him away, should have tried to leave him, but her body wasnât ready to part with him. Every fiber of her body was aching for him, needing to be as close to him as possible â the man who had owned her heart for years, the one sheâd think of in desperate moments.Â
Today she didnât care about her dignity; today she didnât care about being treated right; she was only focused on her arising high. Her orgasm would claw through her way too quickly, urged closer by her shaking fingers, finding her clit, rubbing it fast enough to give herself the needed push.
Jasper watched her come undone with a smirk, grinning at (y/n) while he kept burying his cock inside of her. She stared up at him as if he was the devil, forcing her to realise that she was his from today on, a deal she couldnât pull away from. He came with a groan, letting his forehead press against hers while their bodies stayed connected.Â
âDonât wander through this part of the forest if you donât want to be chased; remember that, darlinâ.â

"Why'd he send you?"
Bruce asked bluntly, his Batman suit on with his gaggle of children evasdropping in the background not-so-subtly. I quirked an unamused eyebrow at the bulky man in front of me.
"It just so happens that I owed Constantine a favour. Do you want my help, or do you want to deal with your little demon friend all by yourself?"
Batman huffs an amused laugh. This is the best demonologist Constantine claims in the world? Red Robin asked Nightwing in a mutter,
"I'm not seeing things, am I?"
Apparently, he didn't think I'd hear him. I smirked as I turned my attention to the older Robin. He nervously shifted his weight when my intense gaze watches him, before becoming a bit panicked once he realized he physically cannot move away from me as I approach. I eye him up-and-down with appreciation before saying,
"You're cute, Little Red. Let's get coffee sometime. After I banish this fucker, of course."
This seemed to surprise everyone in the cave, but my focus was back to the demon Batman managed to get an attachment to.
"Now, how did you manage to get this fucker attached to you? Were you feeling especially lonely and struck a deal?"
I eye Batman curiously. Red Hood chuckles in amusement, but I choose to ignore him. There is a weird tension in the room when Red Hood and Batman make eye contact, so I clear my throat loudly to draw attention back to me as I study the cage that the demon is currently trapped in it. He managed to isolate and contain the demon, so that's a start. He sighs and explains,
"No, I'm not lonely enough to stoop so low."
I give an acknowledging hum. My eyes stay trained on the demon. It was rattling the cage it was imprisoned in, hissing and cursing at me while I approach it.
"Let's just ask the demon then, shall we?"
I stop in front of the demon and ask it,
"Now, what deal did you two make?"
The demon merely growled in response. I growl back at it, reaching into its body and squeezing its heart until it whimpered. I hiss,
"Answer me."
Its gravelly voice said,
"I was promised a new body by an alternative Batman. Clearly, I made a wrong turn."
I purred as I released my grip,
"Good boy."
Batman frowned in thought, but stayed silent by my side. He seemed to already have an idea of who struck the deal.
"Now, which Batman promised you this wanker?"
The demon snarls,
"He goes by Owlman. He merely promised me a Batman."
I give a thoughtful hum as I fully remove my hand from its heart, wiping off the dark blood from my hand.
"Well, that turned out swimmingly for you, didn't it?"
It snarled in response to my false sympathy. Red Hood snorts at my antics. He seemed to be entertained by the entire situation.
"Well, it appears your little deal wasn't fully thought out. I'm sending you back. Next time, possess Owlman instead."
I murmur my spell softly to myself before snapping in a particular pattern. The demon howled before it dissipates like mere smoke. I crack my knuckles nervously before turning back to the Batfamily and saying,
"If you need my services again, ask Little Red over there. He has my number."
Red Robin looked confused until he reached into his pocket and felt the slip of paper I planted on him. He pulls the slip of paper out of his pocket to the dismay of everyone in the cave. I send a wink his way once his disbelieving eyes turn back to me.
With a wave of my hand, I disappear from their cave before anyone could reply. Truthfully, I was a tad nervous to hear his reply. I'm still rusty when dealing with the living after spending so many years trapped in a metaphorical cage with anti-magic wards. Before John saved my sorry arse, I was entrapped for pissing off the wrong crowd.
I have much more experience with the dead and celestial as a result. They are a lot easier to figure out and handle than regular human beings.
Tim had never been more conflicted. Granted, he didn't have anyone who showed genuinely interest in him like this demon hunter. He had to applaud the flawless effort.
"Aww, you two would be so cute!"
Dick said with an encouraging grin. Dick, of course, was excited and happy for his brother. He wraps an arm around him in a side hug before letting go and saying,
"You should reach out! The chemistry between you two reminds me of myself and Starfire."
Jason rolls his eyes and fakes gags at Dick's brotherly excitement. Despite his annoyed exterior, he still defends Tim,
"You care too much, Grayson. Let my replacement come to his own decisions."
Tim gives a shy smile. The demonologist was rather cute and he appreciates the boldness and the stealth it took to even slip the note in his pocket. He softly says,
"Maybe I will."

paring: vlad dracula tepes x afab!reader
cws!: shameless sex. blood drinking. biting. mentions of breeding. slight daddy kink.
a/n: i havenât watched alot of castelvania. - but i do main him in dbd -
so i apologise in advance in dracula seems slightly ooc.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/456c1ab6dea53cfd6082142db329cce0/f00d7f965e1fac42-a7/s540x810/1eeedda2e8d3b5f4586b0402321a4a4fe6a2d690.jpg)
your vision was blurry and your head spinning beyond belief, the only coherent thought you could just about muster would probably be about was him.
the very man fucking you as you knew it; the man who was the one currently sinking his teeth into the base of your neck. dracula.
your face was flushed past recognition as you clung onto his wide shoulders as if your life depended on it. a small yelp being ripped from your lips as you felt his fangs dragging back from you and then digging back in just below your carotids.
â d..drac, careful..â you stammered sheepishly, keeping your head buried in his shoulder as he continued to rock into you at a thoughtful yet quick pace, each throt of his hips sending a sudden shock through your system.
he merely grunted in acknowledgment to your timid words, his fangs still scraping against your shoulder and neck, licking up every drop of blood that trickled out from the wounds he had left.
normally youâd be receiving sweet and encouraging words with each thrust but there would be those special few times where vlad wanted more than sex. he was hungry and he wanted you in every way shape or form.
practically intoxicated by the thought of breeding you, he was relentless about using it as dirty talk but this time was different - he was focused, transfixed on the thought, the mere knowledge that he could make it happen whenever he wanted and apparently then was now.
your eyes welled up with tears a few times throughout as you clung onto him, timing your breathing with his thrusts which were oddly rhythmic. he cooed a few sweet nothings here and there if he knew he was getting too rough or if he had caused you to squirm a bit more than normal.
but your eyes were still blurred as you mindlessly watched the sheets beneath you through a half lidded gaze as if theyâd do something.
suddenly he hoisted you back and pinned you down amongst the many pillows decorating your bed. His eyes studying your every move as he kept a firm but gentle grip on your chin, forcing you to face him.
â look at me my darling.. i want to see you as I breed you.â
*his words sent a shiver down your spine as he continuously rutted into you, your eyes unconsciously shutting due to the emense pleasure that was shooting throughout your entire body.
It simply felt too good, especially since you felt yourself drawing closer and closer to your own release. dracula caught on almost immediately, his eyes still studying your form as he watched it become more and more errotic.
â eyes on daddy beloved..â he whispered to you, grunting softly to himself as a familiar burning sensation made itself known in the pit of his stomach.
you cracked your eyes back open and gave a small gulp as you locked eyes with your husband once again.
he then enlocked your lips again, sloppily kissing you before you felt his hips splutter forward against yours and spilling his load into you.
a deep sigh left his lips as he slipped his eyes shut, running his clawed fingertips through your hair.
You both laid there in silence for a few moments your breaths still ragged as you tried to catch it again.
afterwards you both ended falling asleep with vlad still within you, you laid atop his chest as he acted as your mattress with his arms wrapped around you.

Bad Days
Summary: Ari helps you get through a particularly bad day...
Warnings: Mature Themes, Insecure Reader, Ari Being A Menace, Discussions of Poor Body Image, Body Insecurities, Name Calling, Mentions of Disordered Eating, Clothed Male Nude Female (CMNF), Oral Sex (Fem Rec Implied), Ass Slapping, Spanking (mentioned), Pet Names, Cursing, Minors DNI
A/N: Part of my Sweet Renegades Series. Semi-proofread, not beta'd. All mistakes are my own. Likes, comments, and reblogs are always appreciated. Thanks for reading!
âI donât think I wanna do this.â You grumble as you walk into the living room. You lean down to hand your companion a glass of scotch, offering him a half smile when he gently takes it and places it on a nearby coffee table. âSeriously.â
Instead of responding, he simply pats his lap and waits.Â
âOkay. How about we donât need to do this?â You try again, hating how relaxed his big body seems while taking up way too much space on your couch.Â
Ari shrugs then, catching his plump bottom lip between his perfect teeth and waits. He doesnât speak. Doesnât demand. Doesnât boss. He just waits.
For you.
âItâs stupid.â Your voice comes out softer now, more delicate. âAnd itâs not like it's gonna change anything.âÂ
Your Bounty Hunter cocks his head to the side, one tawny brow raised as he patiently waits for you to continue cycling through your list of objections.Â
âI just have bad days sometimes.â Hot tears prick the backs of your eyes. But even though youâre quick to blink them away, youâre not quite fast enough.Â
Ari studies you for a moment, his piercing blue eyes making your nipples pebble beneath the thin material of your silk robe. It made it hard to remember that you were technically in trouble. Which meant that was was about to happen could technically be construed as a punishment.Â
âThen why donât you be my good little Bird and have a seat, hm?â Your manâs deep voice comes out thick and rough. And while you have a feeling that he wants to make you obey, you know he also wants you to come to him on your own.
âCan the robe stay on, maybe?â You ask, your freshly polished toes digging into the short, plush carpet. âWhat if I get cold? Orââ
âYou wonât.â He softly interjects, widening his jean-covered thighs just a little. Because although you didnât know this, heâd already made a couple quick adjustments to the thermostat just in case. The last thing your man wanted to do was make you uncomfortable â at least not like that.
And then he holds out his hand for your robe. You stand there glaring at him, the two of you engaged in a silent battle of wills. He wins, of course. But only because you have nothing to throw at him.Â
Except for your goddamned robe, which the smug bastard manages to catch midair.Â
Ari tosses it to the other side of the couch before returning his attention to you. Heâs pleased when you take a tentative step toward him, followed by another. And then another. The next thing you know, youâre slowly easing your nude body onto his lapâŚ
And into his waiting arms.Â
Immediately he wraps them around you, drawing you closer to his hard, muscled body. It never fails to make you feel soft and feminine â even when your mind was busy screaming at you that you were anything but.Â
Today you felt dumpy, fat, and unattractive.Â
But then here was this handsome man, holding onto you as if you were the most precious thing in the world to him. It was enough to make you start crying all over again. Just like you had this earlier morning.
âIâm sorry.â You whisper, swallowing the lump in your throat as you work to speak.
âI gotta be honest with you, baby.â Ari murmurs after a few minutes, his warm lips skimming over your brow. âI didnât like what I heard come outta that pretty mouth this morning. Especially didnât like it when you called yourself a pig.â
âWhy?â You choke out a wet laugh. âWould you rather I have compared myself to some other barnyard animal?â
Youâre rewarded for your snark with a sharp slap to your left flank, which suddenly has you burying your face in the crook of his neck.Â
Oops. Guess that wasnât the response he was looking for.
âNo.â He grunts as you feel his fingers dig into the tender flesh of your thighs. You had no doubt that youâd be sporting a delicious set of fresh bruises on your skin by tomorrow morning.Â
âOh.â Whimpering softly, you wrap your arms around his neck as you try to ignore the way his possessive, proprietary touch makes your body flare to life.   Â
âI wanna know why you felt the need to make the comment at all. Regardless of whether you knew I was listening or not.â
And there was the rub. You hadnât expected him to come during your meltdown, let alone actually hear you berating yourself to the degree that you had been. Had you known youâd had an audience you wouldâve at least had the sense to lock yourself in the bathroom or something, but instead youâd just had to cry your heart out in the middle of your bedroom floor.Â
You mustâve looked so pathetic to him in that moment.
âStop.â Ari commands, the single word spoken like a heated caress against your ear. âWhatever mean thought youâre thinkinâ, Iâm tellinâ you to knock it off right now.â
âHâhow?â Your question comes out muffled thanks to the fact that your face is still hidden in his neck.Â
âYou have a tendency to tense up whenever youâre being unkind to yourself, sweet girl.â He replies with a shrug before forcing you to pull away from him so that he can look into your eyes.Â
âIâI do?â No one had ever thought to share that with you before.
âYep. Sure do.â He pinches your nipple as his gaze briefly drops to your bare cunt. âAs your man, itâs my job to notice these things. Even when all I wanna do is bury my fingers knuckle-deep inside that tight little pussy until youâre drippin' and speaking in tongues, this shit comes first.â
Your hips jerk of their own volition when Ari reaches down to tenderly cup your sensitive core, massaging your damp flesh. Instantly you feel your slick honey coating his palm, making your cheeks heat.Â
It didnât help that you always seemed to end up naked around this man while he stayed fully clothed. In the past youâd only read about that kind of power dynamic. But these days you were beginning to enjoy it.Â
âSo tell me what has my woman being so hard on herself today? Be honest, now.â He presses as his fingers go trail their way along your belly, an action that has you immediately sucking in your stomach.
âCan we please turn off the lights?â You ask, feeling somehow both shy and stubborn at the same time. âAt least some of them?â
âNo.â He hisses back, not to be outdone. âYouâre too beautiful not to look at, Bird. I might as well be a moth drawn to your flame, thatâs how much hope there is for me these days.âÂ
âBut I hate my belly. Itâs soâŚsoft.â You tell him, finally willing to admit defeat. âAnd I pulled all these sweaters out of storage today â from my thinspiration pile â and they fit even worse than they did then when I first bought them.â  Â
Your Bounty Hunter stares down at you for a moment, his brow furrowed in confusion.
âThinspiration?âÂ
âYeah.â You hiccup, appreciating when he offers you a sip of his scotch, even when it makes you cough. âItâs like when you buy a shirt or a dress â or in my case a bunch of sweaters â that are too small for you so you can use them as inspiration toâŚyou knowâŚfinally drop the weight.â
âOh, Jesus H. Fucking Christ.â He snarls under his breath before taking a deep pull of his drink. âThatâs what all this was about?â
Sheepishly you nod, as if finally realizing just how ridiculous you sounded. But at the time all of it had made perfect sense. âI figured it might help keep me from eatingâŚtoo much.â
âSweetheartâŚâ His deep voice rumbles low in his chest as he polishes off whatâs left of his scotch. âFuck those sweaters, fuck the jeans, and whatever the fuck else is in that stupid fucking thinspiration box, or bag, or whatever. I mean it.â
One of Ariâs big hands reaches out to take hold of your chin, making it damn near impossible to look away from him.Â
âYou and me are gonna get rid of that box.â
âBut, Beast ââÂ
âNo.â His grip tightens ever so slightly. âThatâs not good for you, baby. It never was. And I donât ever want to hear you disrespecting yourself like that again. I really donât. Broke my fucking heart.â Ari leans in to brush his mouth over yours, his free hand taking every advantage to stroke and caress its way along your body. âAnd it really pissed me the fuck off.â
âIâm sorry.â You mumble as fresh tears spill over onto your cheeks. âIâIâll try to work on it.â
âThese curves of yours are a gift from God, you hear me?â He muses as kisses away a tear. âOr the Devil himself. Depends on who youâre asking I suppose. Thereâs nothing I love more than watching those hips sway in one of your pretty sundresses, or seeing that luscious ass bounce every time I spank it.â
âYou do seem to have a hard time keeping your hands to yourself, Sir.â You respond playfully through a watery grin.Â
âMmhm. The only thing better is when youâre busy holdinâ me hostage.â Ari flips your positions so that heâs on top of you know, effectively pinning you against the couch so that he can grind his denim-covered erection against your damp folds. âKeepinâ me trapped as your love slave while I work my ass off to satisfy that greedy pussy long until we both pass outâ
âHeyâŚâ You pout, shivering when he nips at your bottom lip. He tugs it into his mouth, sucking hard before releasing it with a soft pop. âI thought you liked the job.â You press your hands against either side of his bearded face, pulling him down for a proper kiss.Â
âOh, I love the job. Gorgeous girl. Great pay, benefits.â He nuzzles a path of hot, wet kisses along the column of your throat, loving how it makes you giggle. âAll the pussy I can eat.â
âWow.â You breathe, torn somewhere between lust and humor.Â
âBut in all seriousness, Bird, the only thing I ever want is to see you happy. Keeping that box, holding on to whatever the fuck that was supposed beâŚâ You press a finger to his lips, pausing him mid-sentence.  Â
âI donât want to just throw them away. I mean, theyâve still got the tags on them and everything. But there is a womenâs shelter in the next county. Do you think maybe we could..?â
Ari nods once, giving you a warm smile as he does. Knowing that youâd managed to please him has a fresh wave of slickness coating your already slippery thighs.
âAs long as you agree to let me keep you naked and stuffed full of my cock for the rest of the weekend, we can do whatever the fuck you want.â He hitches one of your legs over his shoulder, dragging his tongue along the soft skin of your calf. âAnd since you seemed to listen so well, I suggest you lay back and relax, because, babyâŚâ
âWe both just earned ourselves a treat.â

so like a week ago I saw a post I can't find again about the idea of like an elf Tav who had grown up with Astarion before Cazador
so here's 4.5k words of that
lightly nsfw but the pants stay on (except in my half finished drafts that I gave up on)
A hog ran out of the bushes and you felt a blade against your neck as the man bodied you to the ground. He hovered over you, dagger pressed to your throat as he leaned in close with a soft smile. "Not another sound. Not if you want to keep that darling neck of yours." This was the first time you really managed to get a good look at him. Still, it took you a moment to recognize him. He looked so much older than you remembered and his eyes were blood red. "Astarion?" He was clearly not expecting that. His eyes widened in confusion and panic before he pressed the dagger firmer against your neck, the tip drawing a prick of blood. "How in the hells do you know that?" He hissed. "Who are you?
You stumbled along the beach away from the illithid ship. Your head was pounding and you just wanted to lay down but this was not nearly the time or place. You had to get away from the crash site and, preferably, find a few other survivors to watch your back. The cleric you picked up was fine and all, but you didn't entirely trust her. You were certain you'd need more help than that anyway.
Corpses littered the surrounding area, of humans and mind flayers alike. Not much survived the falling, flaming debris. It wasn't hard to make out a voice over the crackling fires.
You jogged towards the voice, quickly spotting it's owner. A slender elf with white curls that were surprisingly neat for surviving the nautiloid wreck. "Quick! I've got one of those brain things cornered."
That voice was⌠familiar? Still, you couldn't quite place it and it didn't really matter. If you helped him kill the thing, perhaps you could convince him to join you.
You followed where he was pointing, sword in hand. Really, you should've known better. Or perhaps Shadowheart could've been quicker to alert you?
A hog ran out of the bushes and you felt a blade against your neck as the man bodied you to the ground. He hovered over you, dagger pressed to your throat as he leaned in close with a soft smile. "Not another sound. Not if you want to keep that darling neck of yours."
This was the first time you really managed to get a good look at him. Still, it took you a moment to recognize him. He looked so much older than you remembered and his eyes were blood red. "Astarion?"
He was clearly not expecting that. His eyes widened in confusion and panic before he pressed the dagger firmer against your neck, the tip drawing a prick of blood. "How in the hells do you know that?" He hissed. "Who are you?
"You- you died�" It didn't make sense. You saw them bury his body and everything.
His eyes flicked back and forth, studying your face. You wouldn't be upset if he didn't recognize you, but you weren't exactly sure how you would talk your way out of this in that case.
Fortunately, you wouldn't have to find out. You saw the moment it hit him as he jerked his dagger away from your neck, scrambling to get off of you. "It⌠can't be. Of all the people⌠you." He laughed bitterly, stowing the dagger.
Honestly, you weren't exactly sure how to respond to this situation. You couldn't even tell if he was happy to see you or not. So you decided to press on the most concerning issue still. "You died. I went to your funeral, Astarion. What⌠happened to you?"
You were nearly the same age, you'd grown up together in his family's estate. Your parents were hired hands and you served as a live-in friend for their reclusive son. He was only a few months older than you, so why did he look so much older? So much paler, more exhausted than someone your age ought to be.
On top of it he still looked fucking fantastic. Gods you hated how effortlessly beautiful he was.
His gaze darted between you and Shadowheart, anxiously weighing his options. "Ah, yes, well. You know how it goes, surrounded by adoration and opulence. It all gets to be too much, you fake your death, you flee the country. Standard business really."
That definitely wasn't the truth but clearly he wasn't about to share it in front of Shadowheart. It hurt, finding him like this, though. You were so close as children. It had gotten a little harder as you grew up but you always kept in contact. But he let you think he was dead for 200 years anyway? "Right. Of course. Well. Care to join us?"
~*~*~
It's not like you were still in mourning or anything. He had been a good friend for so long, at times even your best friend, but two hundred years was enough time for you to move on.
You had thought about him from time to time. Fondly remembering stories from your past that would turn into a quiet sadness for the life that was taken from him.
They never had an answer for what had happened to him. He had been murdered, you knew that much. No one ever said how or why, though. Magistrate's weren't exactly beloved and his family held a high enough title there was always the vague threat of assassinations but Astarion seemed like such a strange target.
It was compounded by the fact that nothing ever came of it. No one was ever caught, no political move was made on his grieving family. You would think maybe he'd been jumped, but nothing had been taken from him. Honestly, you never expected to get an answer. Certainly not from the dead man himself.
The two of you were sat in his tent, it had been a few days but what a wild few days they were. Tomorrow you would set out to level the goblin camp but tonight you were going to talk.
"I'm sorry." He started. It kind of surprised you, really. You had been learning over the past few days that the man you had once known was all but gone. The Astarion in front of you now was always bitter and irritated with half the things you did.
"Astarion I swear to Kelemvor, it is not naĂŻve to rescue a twelve year old from a crazy lady with a snake for 'no reason.' The reason is rescuing the twelve year old from a snake."
"Where did you go? What happened to you?" The apology was nice but really, you just wanted answers. "Why didn't you tell me?"
He sighed, leaning forward to rest his arms on his knees. His eyes were fixed on the ground between the two of you and he looked so⌠sad. "I thought about it, about finding you. At first and, only for a moment."
Well that didn't really clear anything up, all right. You kept quiet though, you were smart enough to know when not to push.
"You want the truth? I was captured. Kidnapped by an evil man who turned me into a monster and forced me to do his bidding. I couldn't have told you. I- I didn't want to get anywhere near you. Not like this."Â
A picture was beginning to come into focus. Honestly, there had been enough pieces that you had already begun to wonder. "You're a vampire."
"A spawn, yes." He practically spat the word out, scowling at the ground. "He turned me into his little pet. I was to go out and catch him the most beautiful souls I could find for him to feast on. All the while I was starved and tortured just for his amusement."
"AstarionâŚ"
"I don't want your pity. I mean - I do, sort of but- ughâŚ" He rolled his eyes, leaning back. "You've made this all extremely complicated."
"Why didn't you ever try to find me? I would've helped, I could've tried to get you out of there."
"I⌠well I couldn't." He glanced up at you, a sad smile crossing his lips. "You would've tried, certainly. And I would've watched him kill you as punishment I'm sure. No, it's quite all right." He waved a hand dismissively, as a perfect, easy grin spread across his face.
You couldn't exactly argue. It's not like you had any idea what you would've been up against. Still, your blood boiled at the very idea of what he must've gone through in your centuries apart. "Well, you're safe right now, anyway."
His face softened at your words, seeming to relax into the very idea of your protection. "I am, aren't I? How strange." His head cocked to the side, an almost calculating look crossing his face. "Would you⌠care to stay the night?"
~*~*~
You had always had a sort of off and on crush on Astarion, growing up. When you were very small he had told your parents that the two of you were already married, obviously.
As you got older, you had been sidelined pretty hard as the best friend and you took it with grace. You had plenty of other people who caught your eye and it was nice to always have someone you trusted to be there.
There was that one time that he had drunkenly wept into your arms about being the only person he would ever truly love. It would've meant more had he not just gotten his heart broken hours prior, but it did rekindle an old spark in your heart for a solid year.
The two of you had drifted apart as your social circles moved in opposite directions. You never connected with the upper class, he wouldn't be seen with the rabble. You always kept in touch but, by the time he was murdered captured, you were struggling to keep up with your monthly nights out at the Elfsong.
Right now, though, in this moment? You felt as though you couldn't possibly be closer to another person if you'd wished for it.
Astarion had practically crawled on top of you in his effort to kiss you. One of his hands was tangled in your hair while the other rested firmly against the small of your back. He was colder than you were used to but that wasn't unwelcome. Instead it just sent shivers through your entire body with every touch.
You slowly lowered yourself down to your elbows as he leaned further into you, chasing this kiss like he needed it to survive. The hand in your hair held you firmly against him, not that you had any intention of going anywhere.
His tongue slipped into your mouth, pulling a pitiful little noise out of your throat. He let out a small breath of a laugh as his fingers began to slowly tug your shirt out of your pants. Every move was so delicate and effortless on his part. Gods he was flawless.
He freed your shirt from the prison that was your waistband, pulling back just far enough to whisper a soft "May I?" against your lips.
You couldn't help the grin that spread across your face as you blinked up at him. "Only if you return the favor."
"Gladly." A devilish smile crossed his lips as he pulled back, taking your top with him. A moment later, he had his own pulled over his head and both were recklessly discarded.
One of his hands found it's way to your back again. You couldn't help the way you jumped as his icy fingers made contact with your bare skin. His other hand came up to cup your jaw, ever so gently applying just a bit of pressure. Just enough to encourage you to lay back underneath him as he pressed your lips together again.
You went so easily, he was so gentle and sweet and he tasted like vanilla and ever so slightly like copper. He was intoxicating.
Once he had you on your back, his hands began to wander. They trailed ever so delicately over your chest, lighting a fire inside of you as they went. Your own hands were so much more inexperienced. One helplessly pressed flat against his back, the other unwilling to pull away from his curls for even a moment.
He didn't seem to be bothered by how little you were really helping. His hands continued tenderly mapping your body as his kisses began to trail away from your mouth, along your jawline.
You let out a small gasp as his kiss trailed down to your neck and you felt him pull back, just a bit, just enough to look at you. "Now⌠it is just a thought⌠it's just that, well, some people are into biting."
"Are you asking if you can drink my blood?"
"Well, only if the answer is yes."
You gently brushed your hand through his mess of curls as you pondered this. "What would it⌠do?"
"To you? Not much. A bit of dizziness perhaps, nothing out of the ordinary for some good old fashioned blood loss. But for me? I've been living off rats and wild boar for decades. Just a sip from someone as decadent as yourself could probably give me the power of the sun."
You couldn't help but laugh at the blatant flirting, but damn if it wasn't working. "Maybe a bit exaggerated," he continued "But it would make me feel stronger. I could fight better, think clearer. You don't have to-"
"Go for it."
"Oh. Shit really? I still had a whole monologue about not feeling pressured."
"Getting less sexy by the second, AncunĂn."
"Gods, shut up." He rolled his eyes, pressing his lips back to yours as you giggled.
You could feel his anticipation now, though. He kissed you just long enough to push you back into the right headspace before his attention turned back to your neck.
He lingered there longer than you expected, tenderly covering you with his kisses. Then, without warning, he pulled back and his gentle lips were replaced by an acute sting as his fangs sunk into one of your veins.
It was a unique feeling, you could say that. You'd been stabbed before but this was different. It was cold. Like the first snow of winter, dark and freezing but glittering like crystals in the moonlight. You heard yourself gasp and felt your body arch up into him as your head tipped back for him.
You could've easily lost yourself in the feeling, just basking in this closeness you had with someone who was so dear to you. You had just enough awareness to feel the dizzy, light headed bliss start to tip towards darkness.
Your grip on his hair tightened, gently trying to tug him back before he got carried away. "AstarionâŚ"
He only let out a gentle moan before seeming to catch himself, quickly pulling away with a small gasp. "GodsâŚ" he wiped away the small trickle of your blood that had escaped his lips, licking it from his fingers as you stared up at him, slack jawed.
"I couldn't have wished for a finer vintage." He crooned as he ducked his head back down to clean the blood from your neck.
Gods, he had your heart about bursting out of your chest. His hands started to wander again as his mouth continued it's assault on your neck. Every touch was so careful and perfect, each one sending sparks flying through you.
He cupped one hand around your neck, gently applying a bit of pressure to stop the bleeding as his mouth moved back to yours. "You're gorgeous, you know? I've always thought so."
You were obsessed already. He was intoxicating, the way his touch felt against your skin, the way his honey sweet words pierced your heart. There was an old version of you that had dreamed of just having him like this.
Here you were, pampered and loved by a man you had adored for so long. Gods, you really never thought you would ever see him again, let alone have his hand down your pants like this. In this moment, the world was nearly perfect. The only thing that mattered to you now was making this boy yours.
~*~*~
You woke up in the morning, a bit sore, a bit disoriented, and very alone. It took a moment to remember why you were in a strange tent. Another moment for you to realize Astarion was gone. You couldn't help the disappointment that bloomed in your chest at that thought. You couldn't blame him, exactly. It's not like the two of you were a thing. Still, it would've been nice to wake up beside him.
You sighed softly, quietly getting dressed in the still morning chill. It felt like early morning, the golden light filtering into the tent and lack of noise from your companions clued you in. Maybe Astarion had run off to feed before the rest of the camp woke up. Maybe he'd hoped to be back before you had gotten up?
No such luck. You pushed open the tent flap to find your vampire quietly staring at the dim embers of your campfire. You had to bite back another sigh as you stepped forward, apparently making enough noise to draw his attention.
His neck whipped around, though he relaxed instantly once he located the source of the sound he'd heard. "You're up early." He said, quietly, turning back to the fire.
"I could say the same."
"I'm always the first one awake." You could hear the eye roll in his voice.
You stepped forward, moving to sit beside him with a small, awkward smile. "And you just had to get away from me?" Don't freak him out, play it cool. You weren't disappointed at all.
He didn't seem to find it funny, though. He just drew his knees up closer to his chest. "I told you. You made things⌠complicated."
That was weird. Honestly, you had no idea what he meant. "I'm sorry?"
"Not your fault." His voice was flat and unreadable. He'd really changed so much since you last saw him. It made sense but that didn't stop it from hurting.
You missed the man you used to know. Snarky and a bit full of himself. But also shy and awkward and comforting. You recognized many of his old mannerisms but they'd changed. He was bitter, focused on how to protect himself above all else. It made him violent and trigger happy in a way you weren't used to. Quite frankly, it was a little scary sometimes, the amount of joy he took in violence.
"Can I help?" It was all you had really. You couldn't change what had happened to him. All you could do now was try to help.
"Can you help? Sure. If you could just⌠go back in time, stop yourself from finding me after the nautiloid and let me carry on my merry way, presumably to be murdered by the first person I annoy too much."
"Okay, well, I'm not sure I can do that." You couldn't read him, no matter how hard you tried. "Did I⌠do something wrong?"
"No, gods, no." He curled up tighter. He looked so⌠vulnerable. He never did vulnerable. Especially not now. "You're perfect. That's the problem. You made it complicated."
"Astarion, I don't understand."
He sighed, finally turning his head to throw you a small, tired look. "I know. HellsâŚ" You could see the confliction writing itself across his face. "I want to tell you something but you have to swear that you won't hate me for it, I mean it. It's not good, but you cannot hate me."
"I've never hated you, Star." Maybe the nickname was a bad idea. You practically saw it stab him directly through the chest, forcing him to turn away for a moment to collect himself.
He couldn't look you in the eye again, he just stared off to the distance in any other direction. "I know. I mean it though, promise me, please."
"All right." What could he possibly tell you that was worse than 'I spent two hundred years forced to kidnap people to be killed by my master.' "I promise. I won't hate you, no matter what."
You saw him relax a bit, his shoulders loosening. He turned back, just enough to glance at you out of the corner of his eye. "I⌠Last night, that- itâŚ" It was so rare that he struggled to find his words.
He took another breath, trying to collect himself before turning back to the fire. "I was just⌠using you. I wish I could say I didn't mean to but- gods, I did. I pushed it that way on purpose. Its all⌠part of the plan, you know? Seduce you, sleep with you, secure my safety and position in the group with you. It was⌠easy."
Oh. Well that wasn't exactly great to hear. He was still trying to collect himself, find the right words. You didn't want to interrupt and, honestly, you didn't really know what to say.
"I didn't think about it, I just⌠did it. Like I had to. I needed to. And by the time my head caught up it was too late. You were already into it, I couldn't just stop."
"What?"
"I mean," He continued quickly, seemingly trying to get ahead of your presumed anger. "It's not like it wasn't good, it's not like I don't⌠care about you. It's just, it was an instinct. I think."
"Astarion-"
"Please, you have to understand-"
"No, no, stop. Hold on." You saw the panic in his eyes as you interrupted. "Astarion did you not⌠want to do that?"
The look he gave you was, honestly, almost a little pitiful. "Like I said, you've made this complicated. I don't know. I don't know what I want."
You turned your attention away from him, towards the dying fire in front of you, pausing for a moment to collect your thoughts. "I wish you hadn't done that to yourself." He was right. This was complicated.
He wasn't the same person you had grown up with. Whatever had been done to him had clearly changed him fundamentally as a person.
But, still, you couldn't look at him without seeing your old friend. It was still the same laugh you had known. Still the same smile. You saw it, when you agreed to help the tieflings, the way he cocked his hip out and rolled his eyes. His little mannerisms that still lingered after all this time. He might not be the same man you had known, but you loved him anyway.
"I don't know what happened to you," you continued before he could get defensive. "I don't know what made you feel like you had to go to such extremes just to win affections you've had since we were children."
You saw some kind of spark in his eyes. It was so difficult to read him now, you wanted to get better at that. "I'm⌠sorry." He sounded so unsure. Honestly, you didn't care for it, he was always so confident. Now, though, he just looked⌠sad, maybe?
"You don't have to apologize. Astarion," You carefully reached a hand out to cover one of his. "The first thing you did when you saw me was put a dagger to my throat, and I still would've tossed Shadowheart into the ocean if you'd asked me to."
That pulled a startled laugh out of him that you briefly worried might've woken up your companions. Gods you really would do just about anything to see him smile. "You would not have. You're too much of a goody two shoes."
"Maybe." You grinned, giving his hand the smallest squeeze. "Still. I'm just sorry you felt like you had to go that far for my affection."
"I'm not the man you used to know, I'm not blind. I don't know who he was anymore. Up till now, I think I'd forgotten my own parents' faces. But you look at me like you expect me to be him and I don't know how. I can't be what you expect, at least if I could keep your bed warm you'd have reason to keep me around."
"AstarionâŚ" Your hand tightened around his as you scooted just a bit closer. "I was sitting in the Elfsong, a long time ago. At 'our' table, you know? I was waiting for you to meet me and I grabbed a day old copy of the Gazette to read while I waited.
"I didn't even notice at first. There was a headline for one of the articles, 'Magistrate Murdered', but I didn't notice until I got closer to it. I saw your name and it was like the roof caved in over me. I was sitting there, waiting for you to show up, and a shitty, ale stained piece of parchment told me you never would."
You looked up at him with a sad smile before continuing quickly, trying to stay ahead of the guilt you were sure was creeping up in him. "I cried for months over you. And for years after when something reminded me too much of you. Star, neither of us are the same person we left behind, it's been two hundred years. I've been through plenty, and you've been through hell. That's not what matters though."
He looked so small right now. He was nervous and upset and vulnerable. You hated it, you didn't want him to be so anxious with you, gods you wanted him to trust you. "What matters is right now. We're here together. That's so much more than I ever could've dreamed just a month ago. You don't have to earn my trust and love again. And you certain don't have to force yourself to have sex with me to do it. I never stopped loving you, Astarion."
He was still for a moment, his eyes flicking over your face, scanning you for ill intent. You watched him cycle through a dozen emotions as he processed what you were saying. Then, almost like a switch flipped, he just melted.
With a choked out sob, he collapsed into you. You wrapped your arms around him as he curled into a ball, practically in your lap. His whole body shook as he quietly cried into your chest. You really did hate seeing him cry but you could feel the tension lifting from his shoulders as you held him tight.
You let a silent prayer fly to whichever god was keeping your friends asleep through this, asking them to keep up the good work. The last thing he needed right now was everyone else seeing him like this, you knew how much he wanted to keep up appearances.
Ever so gently, you lifted a hand to card your fingers through his curls. He curled up just a bit tighter, leaned into you just a bit more. It had been so, so long since the two of you had been this close. You really, truly never wanted it to end.
Eventually, though, he pulled back with an awkward laugh and a hasty scrub of his face. He didn't go far, just enough to sit back and look at you. "Gods⌠well. That was sexy."
You rolled your eyes, throwing him a soft grin. "You're ridiculous, Star. Come on, everyone'll be up soon. Big day, you know? Let's go kill some fucking goblins."

You know they know. Theyâre watching you with their beady eyes, waiting to strike the moment you slip up. You canât be anything but perfect. So when it all seems to catch up to you on those late nights, Alva is right by your side to tell you that everything is okay, and youâll be alright <3
Alva is not the best at comforting strangers.
But when it comes to his dear friends heâs a pro.
A gentle hand, and loving words is all youâll need from him in order to feel better.
Alva isnât the only one with a small study, yet yours always seems to house wonderful ideas and creative solutions to bigger artistic problems that heâs never had the ability to think of.
Heâs a genius in a few fields, but when it comes to drawing or anything artistic then it could use some work.
Maybe thatâs why he was so drawn to you.
You made wonderful, beautiful things, and your smile reminded him of the child he never got to have.
It just felt like he had a duty to you.
And so when he comes to check up on you, to make sure you havenât fallen asleep at your desk again, he instead finds what could only be described as a train wreck.
Balled up papers, smashed cups, thrown pencils and pens, and ripped up paintings as you sobbed on the floor.
Shaking and crying as you sought for a comfort that never seemed to come. The prayers of help that usually werenât answered seemed to be deemed acceptable today.
How unfair.
Itâs always when you donât want it, their prying eyes, your weakness, their disappointment.
You wish he would just turn around and forget you ever existed.
Is it such a terrible crime to just want to feel okay?
To be normal?
To fit the standards?
Instead of all of that Alva sets his staff down carefully and kneels behind you. Arms wrapping around your stomach and pulling you in.
âDonât fret my child, they cannot see nor hurt you anymore.â He whispers, stroking your hair gently. âThe cruelty of man never ceases to surprise me. It pains me more having to see you all suffer than anything else.â
âItâs not fair! I just.. I canât do this anymore, how am I supposed to live like this when everything is going against me?â Your hands grip onto his sleeves, looking up at him through tear stained lashes. âWhat am I doing wrong?â
Thatâs a good question, in his opinion. One he had to solve many times before. But this time heâs stumped.
âI am not sure. I suppose that is one youâll discover on your own journey. All I can do is promise Iâll be there with you every step of the way. You are not alone, never fully.â He releases you from his hold, turning you around to face him. A hand on your shoulder and the other pointing at your heart. âI will always be here.â Tapping your chest to emphasize his point. âAnd you will always be here.â Now he taps his own chest.
The gesture makes you tear up again, lurching into his body. It only causes him laugh, arms securing around you again.
Alva would hold you until youâve calmed, or until you passed out. And when you did, he would carry you back to your room and tuck you into bed <3
This is the first time Iâve ever written for Alva, I hope I did him justice

đ¨ art supplies store owner! taehyung đ¨
- You were once again out of white paint and realised that you had also lost several brushes in the limbo of your room.Every single out supply you had found its way on the floor as you were rummaging through your stuff to find that one brush that seemed to be the key for your painting to be perfect. So you were standing there in the middle of the room, ready to let your inner Monet out, easel and canvas right in front of you..... and proceeded to throw the rubbish brushes across the room. The good ones were simply nowhere to find. You sighed deeply and went to pick up the brushes since your rage quit faded away as quickly as it happened in the first place. Weirdly enough, even this moment couldnât curb your enthusiasm to paint again after a time which felt like ages, so you picked up the phone and looked up where to find art supply stores nearby.
-Â And there were NONE, at least not one that seemed to fit your needs, as you knew about that one store nearby that barely had any art supplies but a whole lot of stationary stuff.
- So you decided to just do sketches instead and went on with your day, despite the lingering disappointment of unfulfilled motivation
-Â A few days later, as you were wandering through town in search of a bakery that had almond croissants everybody you knew seemed to obsess over.
-Â You walked past a place that drew your attention and you immediately walked back to take a closer look
-Â You were standing there, in absolute awe of the minimalist yet gorgeous showcase of beautiful paintings that were put up between fine decorations of dried flowers, old brushes and used palettes, right next to an old record player and vintage vinyls, mostly of jazz artists.
-Â What surprised you most about it that it all seemed so personal â like an artist who was showcasing a part of their atelier, which drew you in so much that you found yourself studying every little detail
- Mentally you were drawing a picture of that person whose paintings and belongings you were looking at. It felt like a fresh breath of air to you, yet you felt a sense of familiarity that usually grabs one when you suddenly recognise a scent that wanders through air, like a loved oneâs perfume, or the scent of fresh pastries that remind you of the now closed bakery that used to frequent in your childhood days. Something about this took you right back and you found yourself lost in thought, while listening to an old street musician was playing an accordion nearby.
-Â âI wish I could meet youâ, you thought to yourself and mentally lamented over the fact that you probably cannot ever tell this stranger what their work did to you at that very moment.
-Â You took a few more steps to now see the next window that was decorated similar to the one that drew you in so intensely.
-Â You were taken by surprise when you noticed a guy with dark brown hair and roundish glasses who was watching you through the window the entire time.
-Â You started laughing at yourself when you realised how you must have looked, startled, tired, fascinated and in dire need of the almond croissants.
-Â The stranger in the shop smiled back at you with a gorgeous, boxy smile that instantly made a warm feeling erupt through your body.
-Â He hinted at the door, a silently plea for you to enter and join him in the shop
 - The little bells at the door rang through the shop as you finally entered the cozy store
- You instantly realised how tough it was going to be to keep your cool around him because this man was ridiculously handsome and looked at you with his big brown and sweet-as-honey eyes... and wtf were you supposed to do but to crush on a complete stranger? Your heart could only take this much, right?
-Â âIâm sorry. I didnât mean to startle you.â he said as he shyly scratched his head and smiled. âNo worries. I suppose I was to immersed in this showcase at the front that I didnât take notice of you over there.â
-Â You both went quiet and neither seemed to be able to stop staring at the other one.
-Â âUhm,â you started fidgeting with your bag, âdo you... perhaps know where i can buy some high quality oil paint and ... I think theyâre called filbert brushes?â He stared at you with a blank face, which suddenly made you feel confused, until he snorted and hinted at his surroundings with both hands.
-Â You looked around and felt pure embarrassment creeping throughout your body, as you were, in fact, standing in the middle of an art supplies store and happened to be right in front of a wall display of a whole colour palette of paint tubes.
-Â The stranger giggled when you mumbled âOh my god...â and hid your face behind your hands.
-Â âPlease donât be like that!â he exclaimed, as he feared he made you feel self-conscious all of a sudden. âI can help you after all. Please...â. He looked at your pleadingly, waiting for your response. He huffed out in relief when you smiled at him, touched by his attempt to lift your spirits which worked instantly. You, once again, found yourself bewitched by his dazzling, boxy smile.Â
-Â âFilbert brushes, letâs see ...â he said and started walking through the shop. Meanwhile, you let your gaze wander across the utensils that were displayed between old wooden tables and shelves that had vintage and probably hand-made carvings on them, too. You looked at the posters of Miles Davis, Chet Baker and Ella Fitzgerald and noticed the many vinyls at the opposite side of the wall. âIâm guessing the vinyls at the front are a part of this collection?â you asked loudly, unsure about where he was among the shelves. âYup, they are my babies.â he replied, and you could swear he was smiling as he said that.
-Â He walked towards you, indeed with this handsome smile of his that made your knees feel weak. âYou know, thatâs probably my most prized possession. I have a thing for jazz, I suppose. And art, obviously. But jazz, especially on vinyl... thatâs just pure class, in my humble opinion.â â âI agree. Though I think itâs a shame I canât see Billy Holiday anywhere. Donât you have her poster here?â
-Â Â He was standing in front of you, his arm leaning against the wall next to you. He was observing your every feature, taking in how your lips were slightly parted and how flushed your cheeks became under his gaze. He, too, felt a blush creep upon his face, as he wondered how someoneâs eyes could be so piercingly beautiful.
-Â âFilbert brushes! Letâs go get those brushes...â he mumbled and walked away from you instantly, but to a halt a few metres away from you. You followed him and noticed the set of four filbert brushes which he shyly handed you over.
- âYouâre a life saver. Thank you so much!â you beamed. The stranger felt blood rushing to his head once again and hoped you wouldnât notice his now deep crimson ears and the blush that made its way over his entire face. You were way too concerned with your own, though, to notice that he was as affected as you were. He nodded at you and went back to the counter, hoping to gain some composure again. He felt like he lost every ounce of it as soon as he noticed you looking at his paintings outside the shop. Seeing someone so immersed in the little display of his mind that he tried to represent over there was a huge boost to his ego but at the same time he found himself unable to look away from you. When you had noticed him, he was actually afraid youâd think of him as a creep. Hearing the bells toll inside the shop, made any worry fade, though, and replaced it with a sense of familiarity that he couldnât quite pinpoint. Yet he knew that you were not to stay a stranger for him and tried to calm his heartbeat that rose with every inch of the red string of fate that led you to him. âStay.â was the only thought resonating inside his mind.
- You followed suit and walked to the counter where you put down the brushes and pulled your wallet out. âNo, absolutely notâ he said with a stern look on his face, surprising you with his sudden change of demeanour. âWhy?â you asked âJust let me pay.â You almost started laughing at the bewildered look on his face. âIâm actually serious. Iâll take it as a personal offense if you donât accept my gift.â
- âOh my god, ok!â. He watched you put the brushes in your bag and now smiled rather sadly. He was suddenly hoping for a rain storm, ideally with lightning strikes and such. What if you were afraid of thunder though? Would he be able to soothe you? Would you stay with him and listen to him sing My Funny Valentine to you? Oh, how he wanted to be Chet Baker for you.
-Â âIs everything ok?â you asked him, noticing his sudden and obviously intense train of thought. He nodded. The door suddenly seemed far to near for both of you.
-Â âIâll get going now...â you said under your breath and took heavy steps towards the door. How you wished you could hear him talk about his favourite artists more. How great it would be to listen to him explaining how he came across every record of his vinyl collection. Why couldnât you be more upfront with him and show him how utterly fascinated you were by him, how ridiculously attracted you were to him...
- âTake care...?â you said in a questioning voice, hoping to now have a name to this handsome face. âItâs Taehyungâ he replied. âPlease, grant me your name, too, before you leave.â
-Â You were sure your heart was about to jump out of your chest at his plea.
-Â âMy name is Y/N...â
- âY/Nâ he repeated slowly, with his deep, honey-like voice that made your name sound like the shortest poem you ever heard. âOh, this is onâ you thought. âThereâs no way I wonât go after this connection or whatever the hell this is.â
- âWill I see you again, Y/N?â he asked.
- âYou will. Pretty soon actually.â
-Â He looked at you in surprise, yet pleased.
-Â âYou see, I forgot to buy white paint... A shame, really. It seems I must come here again. How about tomorrow? We could get those almond croissants from that bakery across the street. Maybe have dinner, too, I donât know.â
-Â You walked towards the door, rushing every word on your way out, as you were shocked at your own sudden boldness. He grinned from ear to ear as he listened to you blurt out your ideas, which sounded absolutely heavenly to him.
-Â He stopped you in your tracks and grabbed your hand. âYou know, you could probably lure me anywhere with these croissants. And dinner sounds lovely. I could tell you about some painting workshops I offer, what about that? Rest assured that I will drag it out as long as I can.â You two laughed. You two knew.
       âIâm counting on it, Taehyung.â
        âIâll see you tomorrow then, lovely.â

BREATHE
ââ Letâs try that again hm? â Brianâs voice was low, teasing. You almost wanted to whine, to cry out in desperation.
But you couldnât. Despite every fiber of your being telling you to as your loverâs hand crept back up the column of your throat. His hand was calloused, yet his fingers traced the muscle with a care only he could provide you. His hazel eyes studied your face, checking for any signs of discomfort, distress, anything; his eyes held a sadistic glint to them, he was enjoying this.
The power he had over you at this moment was absolutely exhilarating.
Brian laughed at the sight below him, in all honesty it was both pathetic and endearing. You, below him, watching him like he was God himself, like he hung the very stars for you and you only. This was how he liked you; pliant and obedient. Brian drug his thumb across your jaw, tracing shapes as he reveled in your breathless whines and squirming for any kind of friction to alleviate the burning ache between your legs. The sight of you brought a delighted groan from the man; doe-eyes watery from the previous edging heâd inflicted. Brian could almost feel sorry for you.
But he didnât.
Because this was all your idea.
You trembled as you felt Brianâs free-hand slowly find its way down your body, squeezing at your curves every so often before finding purchase between your shaking thighs. Practically keening as your hips jerked upward to meet his palm, which brought a sharp âtskâ from your lover. The hand around your throat tightened, cutting off the sweet air youâd be gasping for. Mouth agape, eyes already rolling into your skull as Brian plunged his fingers into your weeping core, wetness dripping down you thighs and onto the sheets below. Brianâs eyes never left your face as your hips jerked, hands wrapped around his wrists as you begged. Your sweet voice bouncing off the dark walls.
â Sweet baby, always trying to please me hm? Yeah, I know, feels so good. â Brian rasped, curling his fingers, effectively drawing a squeal from your kiss-swollen lips. You face flushed. Though the moment was short-lived, your eyes bulged as your lover withdrew his fingers.
â Poor babydoll. You never said you wanted to cum tonight. â
Authorâs Comments: Heyo! Mod 800 here, 888 is busy tonight so this is really really rushed as smut isnât my forte so I do thoroughly apologize. I donât really like this so if it seems edited later on it was most likely 888 (god bless her I love her sm)

I Know Iâd Take My Heart Clean Apart If It Helps Yours Beat
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/9e17f156e31d09027e2035049258a26a/1c44cdd8343edae7-5e/s540x810/9b89ca350e47392c0d05017c1a10091167098c29.jpg)
Day 7:
Fandom: Obsidian Lantern: Merfolk
Theme: Hurt/Comfort. Listener tells Zef why they are working for Mr. Wood.Â
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 2044
Notes: SAY IT WITH ME! SONG LYRIC TITLE! Not from EPIC this time though. Do merfolk have eyebrows? I mean, they have hair so I guess they would? Anyway, I love chocolate covered dried bananas. Enjoy, I'm sorry this is so late.Â
Zef and Sera had joined you in the cave where you and Zef had first met, reviewing files over Mr. Wood. You had finally gotten somewhere with your research through the files you had been able to obtain.Â
Sera had been reviewing some of the papers as well, but he had mostly been reviewing human laws. Most of the laws were from your area, but many of the laws heâd been reviewing were international, or from the Geneva convention.Â
When you had asked why he was reviewing laws such as the Geneva convention and other such international laws on violence, he told you how to be able to convict Mr. Wood in Bermuda, he would have to see what human laws Mr. Wood had violated in addition to the Bermuda laws.Â
And meanwhile, Zef was playing around and eating your snacks. This time, youâd brought some chocolate covered dried bananas that youâd bought earlier in the week.Â
âClemmy!â Zef called out, arms out on the rocky ground of the small cave. âClem~â he called again, his tone drawing as if purposefully trying to annoy you.Â
âZef,â Sera sighed tiredly. âStop that.â
âIâm just trying to get their attention to ask a question!â Zef squawked in mock offense. He bobbed under the water before coming back up.Â
You shook your head fondly, putting down the file youâd been reading. âWhat do you wannaâ ask, Zef?âÂ
âHow did you come to work for Mister Wood?â Zef asked, dropping another few chocolate covered bananas in his mouth.Â
Your body froze as your even, calm breaths stopped abruptly. Sera looked up from his documents, holding them in one hand with the other on the rocky floor of the cave keeping him afloat as he gave you a look of concern.Â
When you didnât answer the question after a few moments, Zef spoke up again. âYou good Clemmy?â he asked, concern and confusion in his tone.Â
You nodded briefly. âIâm fine,â You responded, an invisible weight appearing in your chest. âI justâdidnât expect you to ask a question like that.â
Sera placed the papers he had been holding down onto the cave floor. âZef makes a good point,â he started, swimming over to where the previously mentioned Merfolk floated. âI too, would like to know. It seems relevant to the case,â he added.Â
Although Zef just seemed to be asking out of curiosity, you were nervous to reveal your relationship to the man. He mightâve been your boss, but that wasnât the only way you knew him, and the way you knew him, you didnât think the boys would take it very well.Â
âAre you sure? I meanâI work for him, but do you need to know how I met him?â You attempted to play off poorly.Â
Sera seemed to sense your nervousness, but he could also tell that you werenât telling the full story, and that wouldnât work for him.Â
âIt would be better to know as much as we could about Mister Wood,â Sera explained, his stern gaze meeting yours. âAnd it would most likely be brought up in our courts when he is to be convicted of his crimes.â
Your nerves only increased as Sera spoke. You logically knew that neither Zef, nor Seraâwell, maybe Sera, wouldnât hate you if you told them. Logically, you knew that, but emotionally? Emotionally, you felt as if they knew how the two of you were connected, that they would despise you for it.Â
âWellââ You started, unsure what to say. You knew that whatever you said would lead to yelling and shock, but the eyes and ears were on you now. âWhenâwhen I was a child, I was so interested in marine life and biology, and constantly wished to study them even though I lived about three hours away from the closest beachsideââ You chuckled to yourself. âAnd my mother, she wanted to to encourage my curiosity and research, urging me to study what I lovedââ
âShe sounds lovely,â Zef interrupted, smiling while continuing to nibble on your snacks.Â
âYeah,â You smiled warmly. âShe isâand back then, her brother was living close to the coast, starting up his own marine study center,â You continued, taking a breath as your heart thumped loudly in your chest, the invisible weight on it becoming heavier. âAnd one summer she sent me to my uncleâs place to study and research marine life with him.â
Sera raised an eyebrow in suspicion, as if he had already been catching on to what youâd been trying to avoid stating obviously.Â
âAt first it was nice,â You continued, hands becoming crossed and grabbing the opposite tricep. âMy uncle was stern but not strict and we would study different shells and what caused each shell to be shaped the way they did. He always had me guess what caused those hollow shells with empty caverns to be the way they were.â
Seraâs eyes widened and he opened his mouth to speak, before shutting it and locking eyes with you. The expression on his face resembled concealed shock, his eyebrows furrowed in what resembled a wild rage.Â
âI went back, summer after summer after summer. Every summer he would become colder somehow, more secretive. At first I would try to ask, but eventually, I would just leave him be,â You continued, wringing your fingers nervously. âAnd eventually, I went off to college. I got a degree in marine biology and was looking for jobs when my mother suggestedââ You paused, waiting for the realization to settle in before stating the obvious. â-that I work for my uncle, here, on the coast.â
Zefâs face dropped from interested and curious to shocked and horrified, floating in the water in stunned silence. He looked as if he had been betrayed, but he hadnât. You hadnât betrayed him, and you would never. But in these very moments, you felt as if you had.Â
Even Sera stayed silent, his usual stoic facade cracking under the weight of the revelation that had been revealed.Â
You sat in silence as you felt their disappointment seep through your skin and bones and into your soul before you spoke again. âAt first, It wasnât even bad, I was doing minor work and even though my. . .my uncle was cold, it wasnât a bad job. I met Doctor Evanderââ You smiled softly, head down and facing the ground, unable to look at your companions. â--and he was nice, a good fella, but my uncle only grew colder. . .â
Your smile dropped and you didnât look up, not wanting to see the faces of people who thought they could trust you.
âAnd when he got colder, his patience wore thin, and his anger became. . .stronger and moreâmore forceful,â You gulped, feeling as if your throat was burning.Â
âWhat do you mean by that?â Sera asked, his voice deep and stern. You avoided his gaze, shame spreading down your face.Â
âClemmy?â Zefâs voice rang in your ears. âAnswer Seraâs question. What do you mean by that?â
âI knewââ You sucked in a grateful breath of air. âI knew my uncle had issuesâevents that happened in the past to change him, although I didnât know what those were at the timeâbut he started to take out his anger on his employeesââ
âDid he ever raise a hand to you?â Sera questioned sternly, interrupting your shaky response.Â
âNo-! HeâI,â You stuttered briefly. âHe neverânot to me, my mother wouldâve practically murdered himââ You chuckled sullenly at your own remark. ââif he had ever raised a hand to me, but that didnât excuse others, such as Doctor Evander, from being caught in the crossfire.â
âClemmy, what does that mean?â Zef asked, his tone now far more manicked and concerned than upset.Â
âWe would have performance reviews, every week or so, at the end of the week,â You spoke, your voice shaking. âAnd every week, heâhe would grab an employee and degrade them in front of all of us, sometimes even going as far as slapping themâand if they made himâif he was angry enough, he would damage products or materials we used and blame it on us and subtract it from our paychecks,â You responded with a shaky exhale, wishing for the burning in your throat to cease and you refrained from crying.
âDid he ever do that to you?â Sera questioned, his tone stern and without room for argument.Â
âTwice, but he only yelled, never hit. After those two times, which was a few years ago, I was his perfect little employee who performed everything up to standard, and because of that, he never focused on me and I was mostly out of his sightâand I stayed near Doctor Evander and he was nice, but Mister Wood always pulled him aside and I would see bruises on hisâ,â You concluded. âBut he never hit me-he neverââÂ
Sobs wracked your body as you shook, holding yourself in your arms as Sera and Zef watched on in mystified horror.Â
âThat has got to be illegal!â Zef practically shrieked, his voice rising.Â
âZef!â Sera attempted to shush. âTheyâre shaking,â he stated.Â
âOh,â Zef uttered, his voice quiet. He frowned, watching you shiver and shake, fat tears falling from your eyes. He swam up next to you and hooped up, sitting on the cave floor. Hw wrapped you in a hug, and although it was wet, you gladly accepted.
âJust because he never hit you, doesnât make it okay,â Zef affirmed, raising your head to lock your gaze and his. âOh Clemâwhy didnât you tell us this before?â
You were lost for words, sobs as your only answer. Sera watched on, guilt hanging heavy in his chest.Â
âI had previously asked what their relationship was to Mister Wood, and they told me that they were just an employee,â Sera stated, looking at the pair of you and Zef. âBut they lied, and maybe they thought of what weâd think of them if we knew.âÂ
âOh Clemmy!â Zef cried. âDid you think weâd hate you?âÂ
âI thoughtââ You sniffed. âI thought you would leave me hereâleave me withâwith thisâwith, oh withââÂ
âWith Mister Wood?â Sera asked, raising an eyebrow. You nodded as a response. âI would never leave anyone with such a man, especially now when I see how he treats family.â
âWeâll always be here for you, Clemmy,â Zef smiled. âEven if you donât believe it right now, weâll always be here for you, here to catch you when you stumble or fall, or when youâre stuck on a boat in the middle of a storm orââÂ
âWhenever you need to ask for help,â Sera added, swimming over and placing a wet hand on your arm. âWe will be here.â
âAnd we could never, ever hate you,â Zef added in finality, smiling at you. He let you out of the hug, hopping back into the water, but still facing you.Â
You sniffed. âThanks guys, that means a lot.âÂ
âAnytime Clemmy, anytime,â Zef offered genuinely, smiling wide.Â
You laughed, sniffling. âGuess Iâm all wet now.â
âOooo, yeah, thatâs my badââ Zef cringed, hissing at his own revelation.Â
âHow about we reconvene here tomorrow? Give some time to process, no?â Sera suggested.Â
âIâd like that,â You admitted, standing up and grabbing your documents whilst Sera put his in a large ziploc baggie, courtesy of Zef.Â
âBye Clemmy!â Zef waved. âSee you tomorrow!â He ducked under the water, taking your precious chocolate covered banana chips with him.Â
Sera collected his things before speaking to you. âWhat you did today, you shouldnât be ashamed,â he stated, his voice somehow softer than youâd ever heard it previously. âIf you ever need help, and I am serious. If you ever need my help, do not hesitate to tell me. I will help you. You deserve to be treated well.â
You stood in stunned silence with your belongings as Sera took a large breath. âTake care of yourself, I mean it,â he finished, ducking under the water with the ziploc covered documents.
You stood in the cave briefly, a warm feeling spreading across your chest, taking off the heavy invisible weight that had stood prior.Â
In those next moments, you walked out of the cave, somehow feeling better and lighter than you had in years.Â

Babies shouldn't grow up â Jason Todd & GN!Reader (PT.3)
What does Jason do after feeding and giving a home to the brat he stole from the slums of Gotham? Raise the kid lovingly like he wished he'd been raised, of course. [PART ONE ⤠PART TWO ⤠PART THREE ⤠PART FOUR ⤠PART FIVE ⤠PART SIX]
Pairings: Platonic Jason Todd & Child GN!Reader
In the beginning, living together wasn't very smooth
Despite your shared pasts, the immediate fondness from Jason, your eagerness for affection and love, you two were still very much strangers
You were hesitant and skittish, often sticking to the guest room Jason said it was yours, since for your entire life you mostly lived by yourself
Jason didn't actually know how to deal with a vulnerable and traumatized child, he wasn't Dick, he didn't have an innate charm that allowed you to be drawn to him easily
But that didn't stop him from trying
Every day, Jason made sure to get you out of your room to eat
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner
Eating was non-negotiable, even if you were used to only a bite or two a day, he wanted you to eat what you could
You felt sick for the first few days, your body unused to so much water and nutrients, causing it to think something was wrong
Jason almost went insane with worry, rubbing your back, carrying you around, and even refusing to go out when you told him you were fine
From your vomiting, you were anything but
Despite his fear and anxiety, Jason sat down to google all your symptoms and treatments when you finally fell asleep after throwing up again
Pushing the multiple deadly diseases and cancers aside, he learned that your body was just a little overwhelmed and all you two had to do was increase your meals little by little instead of shoving food down your throat
Though he still insisted on you drinking at least five cups of water every day
Then, maybe a week or two later once you two were a little more comfortable around each other
You not feeling like a bother anymore and Jason not eating himself with anxiety
The two of you started spend more time together
Jason cut some of his vigilante work, told Bruce to fuck off when he was questioned, and made sure to take you out to buy a year's worth of clothing using the old man's credit card
You started clinging a bit to him, asking him to teach you how to read and write, seeking validation when you managed to understand a whole page without needing help, asking about his life and past
And Jason always made sure to be honest with you, about the good and the bad because he wanted you to trust him
From experience, he knew that keeping things from you would only cause problems down the line
He'd tell you about his days in the slums while preparing a meal, you at his hip helping him put things in the pot
He'd talk about being a Robin with both fondness and bitterness while he helped with your hair, having done so much research to make sure he treated your type of hair correctly
He'd confess about what happened with the Joker, keeping it slightly less gory than it was
About his mother and Batman
About his death, hell, the pit, the after
He'd tell you everything as the days went on
And you'd sit by his side, cuddling with him, hugging him close when his voice trembled
Jason's hold would often tighten around you when he talked about something that made him sick to his stomach
Especially when it was a story about almost losing someone
Like he thought you'd disappear even in his arms
Like that, the trust between the two of you only grew as weeks turned into months and soon enough those months turned into a year
Jason had returned to his normal patrol hours once you were finally caught up with your studies and managed to put you in middle school
You were so damn excited and Jason knew exactly why
For a kid who was deprived of seemingly boring things since forever, school is a place filled with knowledge and wonder
The very first thing you did when you got home was show him a drawing of your hero the art teacher asked your class to make
Jason cried when he saw a poorly sketched version of Red Hood
He put it up in the fridge after printing it twice
You two definitely started matching, by the way
Jackets, shirts, shorts, hats, even phone cases
Jason never thought he'd be so lame as to buy stuff like that but once the two of you wore the exact same ugly christmas sweater, it was over for him
It was a little embarrassing, especially for you
But when you two went out with the same jackets and an elderly couple complimented the father and kiddo duo, you couldn't help but love it too
It was jarring for Jason, for sure
He didn't really consider himself your father, maybe your guardian or your older brother, but... it wasn't too bad
No, in fact, he kind of liked it
You are his kid
God, the restaurant dates
He'd take you to every food place in Gotham
From the ones that made you two throw up for the entire weekend
To the ones that made Bruce call him after spending eight hundred dollars on golden lobsters
It would be no surprise if you ended up liking burgers the most though
Like kid, like father
If you had any problem in school, Jason wouldn't try to hide away
He got himself a fake identity for the sole purpose of making himself your guardian through more than illegal terms
Doesn't even matter if he was in the middle of a meeting with other rogues, heroes or even his family
Jason would drop everything for you
Especially when you punched the fuck out of little Timmy for saying something bigoted
The dean and the teacher would probably try to make him scold you, telling the two of to you that this violent behavior is unacceptable and should not be rewarded
And Jason would look at them, at little Timmy's infuriated mother, and tell them that if Timmy didn't want to get his shit rocked, he should've kept his mouth shut
Of course, he also threatened them saying he'd let all of Gotham know that they protected and encouraged bigoted behavior from ten year olds
Needless to say, little Timmy didn't bother you after that day
And you also got ice cream after getting a two day suspension
"Did he make a noise?"
"Squealed like a fucking pig."
"That's my fucking kid."
Jason wouldn't let you act spoiled
Sure, he'd spoil you rotten, give you everything he wanted as a kid and what you want
But he knows the important of humility
That doesn't mean he'll let anyone ever try to bully you, though
To be continued...

Six hours. Thatâs how long itâs been since you showed up at Peterâs front door. Six hours spent right next to him, talking to him, touching him, and yet you still find yourself longing for more. Even now as you sit between his legs, back to his chest, his hands kindly twisting at your hair, your thoughts have you squirming in your seat.
The two of you had set up this study date a few days back, anticipating the opportunity to spend time together (without sacrificing your grades). Unfortunately, you were having a hard time focusing on schoolwork.
No matter how much you tried to focus on your paper, you couldnât stop your mind, and your eyes, from wandering. You caught yourself staring at how pretty his hands looked as he hurriedly wrote down equations, admiring how cute he looked sitting crisscross in his plaid pajama pants and science pun t-shirt, how his voice sounded just slightly deeper when he was concentrating, or how soft his lips look right now. You actually thought you were going to lose it when the praise âGood job, babe. This looks perfect!â fell casually from his lips while reading your completed assignment, sealing it with a kiss to your temple.
You felt like you were going insane, but the thing is, so was Peter. You hadnât seen each other for nearly three weeks prior to this study date, outside of passing in the halls or a quick call before bed. Between you trying to prepare for a major presentation coming up and Peterâs multitude of responsibilities, neither of you had much energy, let alone time, left to spend on anything else.
Of course, you love everything about Peter, unconditionally. That includes his web-slinging alter ego. However, it can get a little frustrating having to go weeks on end without being able to hold a conversation with him. Especially when all people talk about is the amazing spider-man, listening to girls fawn over your boyfriend for hours a day, and feeling just as fangirl-ish. You found yourself daydreaming about him to pass the time, acting like a schoolgirl with a hopeless crush.
Seeing him again after so long with so little contact is like a wake up call for your senses. You'd been so buried in your studies that you didnât even realize just how much you missed him until you knocked on his front door.
- âAre you okay?â
Your thoughts dissolve as Peter draws your attention back to the present. When you snap back to reality, youâre immediately reminded of what caused the spiral of daydreams to begin with. You can feel the warmth of his body behind yours, the contour of his toned chest pressing against your back. You feel your whole body heat up.
âMhm, Iâm great!â you squeak out, internally wincing at the shakiness in your voice. Your usually bright and vibrant tone is completely gone, replaced with something resembling more of a whisper than anything else.
Safe to say, Peter isnât buying it.
His best guess is that youâre upset about something that happened today. Maybe stressed about the presentation you have coming up. He knows it sometimes takes you a while to open up, so for now, he decides to let it go. In an attempt to settle your mind, he slides a hand down your arm to lace his fingers through yours.
Unfortunately, it does the exact opposite. The innocent action leaves a trail of goosebumps behind and makes your breathing pattern pick up ever so slightly. You can only hope that Peter doesn't notice.
He does.
âAre you cold?â
You shake your head, taking deep breaths to steady yourself. âNo, Iâm alright.â Loosely translated, means I actually feel like Iâm burning from the inside out.
âDo you not like the movie? We can change it if you want to watch something else.â he offers sweetly, leaning forward to rest his chin on your shoulder. âYouâve been all spacey for the past half an hour.â
Your breath hitches, feeling like youâve been caught red handed. Of course he would notice. He may be a little oblivious sometimes, but when it comes down to it, Peter knows you better than you know yourself.
âThe movieâs fine.â You struggle a bit to formulate a response, feeling your whole body heat up like a furnace. To evade the silence, you stutter out a weak, âI was just⌠thinking?â
You immediately want to light yourself on fire, deciding the silence would have been better.
âThinking about what?â he asks. Not prying, just curious. âMust be something pretty important. Your heart is beating a mile a minute.â He softly laughs at his own words, causing you to shrink into yourself. Heâs not laughing at you, but it definitely feels that way.
You fidget with Peterâs fingers in your palm, eyes locking on the movie as nerves wrack through your body. âItâs nothing.â You speak so quietly, heâs thankful for his enhanced hearing.
âDoesnât seem like nothing.â you can practically hear the concerned furrow in his brow as he brings your still interlaced hands to his lips, leaving feather-light kisses to each knuckle. âYou know you can talk to me about anything, right?â
His patient and caring nature never fails to make you fall more and more in love with him, if thatâs even possible.
Then, as if you werenât enough of a mess, what really does it is when Peter leaves the faintest kiss to the base of your neck. A gesture meant to signal patience and understanding towards your âanxietyâ only causes your thighs to squeeze together against your will, and before you can think enough to stop it, an airy, barely audible whine escapes the back of your throat, so soft it could pass as a sigh to the average ear.
Nothing about Peter is average.
He stills against your skin, causing your eyes snap open in horror as the realization hits you. Manicured hands immediately cover your face to shield you from the embarrassment.
They donât stay long as Peter wastes no time in reaching up to gently pry your hands away. You feel like you could burst into tears at any moment from the sheer shame and frustration.
âHey, hey-â, he holds both hands gently, rubbing sweet circles to soothe you, âNo need to be embarrassed. You can talk to me.â
You donât move your gaze from your lap.
âCome on, beautiful. Look at me.â He asks so gently that you comply before you can even think otherwise. His eyes are soft and kind, looking at you with all the love in the world. He makes you feel safe.
âIs that what youâve been thinking about? Hm?â
You blink up at him owlishly, feeling like there would be a question mark floating over your head if you looked up.
âThatâs why you were all spacey? You were thinking about meâŚâ he leans his head down, lips grazing your collarbone, âkissing you?â
Your breath catches.
"Or, maybe..." your eyes are glued as he moves his hand from your hold, delicately trailing it down your stomach, past your hip, and slowly down to the inside of your thigh. So close to where youâve needed him for the past three weeks. â-you were thinking about me touching you?â
Your heart rate picks up by a tenfold, and Peter can hear it hammering in your chest.
Waiting for a response, heâs met with nothing but your heavy breathing. He carefully digs his fingertips into the doughy flesh of your thigh. âIs that what you want? Do you want me to touch you?â
Another airy whimper tumbles from your lips, reluctantly nodding in response to his questions, needing him too badly to care about the shame you feel at your neediness.
Peter smiles, rewarding your response by trailing his sweet kisses up your neck, taking his time to feel you shiver under his touch. His warm lips finally reach the shell of your ear.
âAll you have to do is ask.â
He resumes his attack on your neck, now bolder in his movements as he licks and bites and sucks at your skin, trying to find the spot that makes your eyes flutter shut.
Caught up in the feeling of his warm mouth against your skin, you donât even notice as he hooks your ankles over his, slowly spreading your legs wider and wider, until your skirt rides up your legs.
Peter smiles against your skin when a shaky sigh reaches his ears, your hips bucking up in sync. Heâs found it. Peter focuses all of his attention on that spot, nipping and sucking at it until youâre sure heâs going to leave a mark. The hand on your thigh squeezes gently every time you move your hips, and you have to chew on your lip to stop the mortifyingly desperate sounds from spilling out.
âIs this what you had in mind, baby?â the words rumble against your skin, sending a chill down your spine, âIs this what you needed?â
Your hips buck again at that, pouting with the hope that he takes the hint. You feel your body melt into him when his tongue darts out to soothe the fresh mark heâs left on your neck.
Of course, he does get the hint, but thereâs no way heâs letting you off the hook that easily.
He inches his hand higher and higher up your thigh, slipping underneath the pretty little skirt he had bought for you as a gift a few months ago. You tense in anticipation.
âWhat is it?â amusement evident in his tone as he asks you. He loves that he gets to be the one that makes you this needy. âCome on, baby. Tell me.â
You almost sob in frustration, not wanting to say it out loud, but the ache between your legs is becoming unbearable.
His hand barely brushes against your panties, making your chest tighten as you suppress the urge to grind into it.
âTell me what you need me to do.â
You canât handle it any longer.
âPlease!â You all-but shout, free hand grabbing at his arm, âPlease touch me, Pete!â You cry out, already sounding wrecked and he hadnât even really done anything yet.
Peter beams at how vocal he had gotten you, leaning his head further down to meet your lips for the first time since you got here all those hours ago. It felt like drinking water after being stranded in a desert for days. You missed the way his lips felt. The way they tasted. You crave more.
Then, he mutters two words against your lips that manage to make your hazy brain short circuit.
âGood girl.â
Your groans are pathetic, being swallowed by Peterâs tongue as he rocks his palm against you through your pretty pink panties.
He canât help but laugh a little, giddy at the sounds spilling out of you at even the lightest touch of his hand.
âIs that better?â he asks, breaking away for air. âThis what you've been daydreamin' about?â He already knows what you really want, he always does, but he wants to hear you say it one more time. Just one more confirmation and heâll give you anything you need.
Now that your mind is so clouded with pleasure, you donât give it a second thought. âMore-â you canât barely get out a sentence between mewls, âPlease, Peter, I need more-â
Before you can say another word, heâs pushing your underwear aside. Your head falls limp against Peterâs shoulder as he gathers your slick, dragging it up to finally circle your puffy clit.
Without his mouth to drown them out, your moans flow freely from you, drowning out the long-forgotten movie playing in the distance. Peter goes back to kissing your neck, deciding to mark every area of your skin that he can reach.
âIâm sorry, baby.â he soothes, nipping at the skin right under your jaw, his own heartbeat jumping at every noise he pulls from you, âBet youâve been achey all day, huh?â
You nod your head, barely registering his words as pleasure rolls through your body.
He lets out an almost mocking âAww, honeyâŚâ as you buck your hips against his fingers, âBeen so patient for me, huh? Waiting all day for me to make you feel good?â
âMhmâ mixed with your pants, words tumble from your mouth without a single thought to how eager you sound, âFeels so- ohhh⌠sososo good-â
All you can think about is the way Peters rough fingertips feel absolutely euphoric as he swirls and flicks at your clit, and how his lips sear every inch of your skin, and how his scent and his warmth consumes and takes over every thought floating around in your blissed-out head.
âYou sound so pretty-â he peppers hot kisses across your shoulder, âMaking so many pretty soundsâŚâ
Peter bends his legs a little, which in turn, bends yours. The move spreads you out just a little bit more, but its enough to send little shockwaves of pleasure through you, making you jolt and gasp at the feeling.
Peter loves the way you look when you get like this. Skin sticky with heat, eyes screwed shut, mouth hanging open in bliss. He thinks you looks like a goddess.
Your moans start to sound more and more like a plea, hips grinding against Peterâs fingers subconsciously as you feel the heat slowly taking over. You need more.
âPeter, pleaseee-â
âShh, Itâs okay.â his fingers glide down to your entrance, coating themselves with slick, âIâve got you, pretty girl.â
Your eyes practically roll into your skull as he slips two fingers inside of you with ease. The stretch feels incredible, and you canât help but squeeze the hand that's still holding yours, letting out a sigh of relief.
âOh my god-â
Peter kisses back up until he reaches your lips again, grinning as you can barely reciprocate. The gentle nature of his kiss makes your head spin and your core clench around his fingers.
âDoing so good for me, sweetheart.â
You feel your lashes begin to collect tears at the overwhelming feeling pulsing through you. This has been building up for weeks.
âAlways so good for me.â
Achey little noises spill from your lips onto Peterâs, breathing labored and heaving as the only thought filling your head is Peter Peter Peter.
Then suddenly your mind goes completely blank, gasping back a choked moan as your body goes limp, jaw slacking against Peterâs deep kisses. Your whole body feels like it's buzzing with electricity, and your head feels static in the most amazing way.
Peter pulls back for a moment to watch your face scrunch up in ecstasy, as he rubs against your spot over and over and over again. âThere she is.â he coos, admittedly a little proud of himself, and youâre too fucked out to pick up on the mocking tone. He watches in awe as you start to fall apart.
âTakinâ my fingers so well, baby.â
You start to clench tighter around him, using your free hand to grip his wrist like a vice. Peter goes back to kissing your open mouth, sucking and nipping at your bottom lip as you pulse and twitch under his touch.
Panting turns back into whimpers which turns into tears as Peter massages your walls just right, hitting all the right places and stretching you out sooo perfectly.
You can feel pressure building up rapidly in your stomach, back arching up as your body starts to shake from the intensity. Peter shifts so he can watch the way your hips chase his fingers and your chest heaves for air.
âYouâre so close, sweetheart. You can do it.â he praises, coaxing you closer and closer to the edge, âAlmost there-â
The knot keeps winding tighter and tighter, and whiny begs and pleads start to pour out of you. Lots of âOh my god, Peteâ or âPleaseâ and âSo good-â
Hand over yours, Peter glides your intertwined hands up your body and over your arched ribcage. He slides your hands under your his t-shirt, using his thumb to push your smaller one back and forth over your peak, a long chant of mumbled Peterâs tumble from your kiss-bitten lips.
âI know, baby, I know.â he consoles you, copying the pouty tone of your voice, âJust feels too good, huh?â
You nod your head frantically, still not catching onto the the tease, only caring about chasing your release.
He presses his lips to your ear, âWaited so long for this, honey. You deserve to feel good.â
He pumps his fingers a little bit faster.
âGonna make you feel so good-â
You start to grind your hips up again, gasping when his palm rubs against your clit with each thrust.
âPete-â the knot is getting tighter, âOh my god, Peter- IâmâŚâ and tighter, âIâm gonna-â
âLet go for me, babe.â
Thats all you needed for your vision to go white hot, mouth falling open with a silent scream as stars dance behind your eyelids.
âThere ya goâ
âJust like that, pretty girlâ
âLet it all out, babyâ
He peppers kisses on your burning skin and slows his movements as he works you through your high. As you come down from it, your body goes limp on top of him, a lazy smile stretching on your lips. Peter canât help but smile too, chest swelling in satisfaction that he was the one who put that smile on your face.
You wince a little as he slowly pulls his fingers from your core, eyes following as he brings them up to his lips to clean them off.
âFeel better?â this time you can definitely hear the cockiness in his tone, smacking him weakly on the arm. âShut up.â
You turn around just enough to kiss him. This time, itâs slow, and careful, and loving, and you have to pull away and bury your face in his chest to hide the lovesick look in your eyes. Both of you burst out giggling, and Peter can't stop himself from wrapping his arms around your waist to keep you as close as possible. Heâs missed you more than you could possibly ever know.
As relaxation coats you like a warm, fuzzy blanket, you shift your weight to get comfortable.
âAh, donât-â
Peter squeezes his eyes shut, hissing at the sudden pressure and gripping your hips to keep you still. âCan't do that...â
Now itâs his turn to get flustered.
His face goes beet red as you jump up in confusion. When you look down, you notice a painful looking bulge in his jeans. Your stomach twists with the knowledge that you did that to him.
You werenât the only one whoâs been touch deprived.
âOh! SorryâŚâ you giggle a little at the accidental stimulation, looking back up at Peter with a playful smile of your own. âYour turn!â

part two of the hugh fic
a/n: found part two !!
warnings: kinda spicy? but not too much..
The next morning, Hugh woke up to the soft light of the sun streaming through his bedroom window. The events of the previous night felt almost surreal, but the text on his phone confirmed it was anything but a dream.
M/N: Good morning, hugh. Whatâs your schedule like today?
A grin spread across Hughâs face as he read the message. He quickly typed out a reply:
Hugh: Busy until late afternoon, but Iâm free after that. Care to join me for a walk in the park?
It didnât take long for M/Nâs response to come through.
M/N: Sounds perfect. Iâll bring coffee if you bring the charm.
By 4 PM, Hugh found himself strolling through Central Park, scanning the crowd for M/Nâs unmistakable figure. He didnât have to look long. There he was, standing by a fountain, holding two cups of coffee and wearing a smile that could rival the sun.
âYouâre early again,â Hugh called out as he approached.
âI like to keep you on your toes,â M/N quipped, handing Hugh a cup. âBesides, someone has to make sure you donât get lost in your own city.â
Hugh laughed, taking a sip of the coffee. âFair enough. So, whatâs the plan? Stroll and chat?â
âExactly. Unless you want to climb trees or join the street performers,â M/N teased, a playful glint in his eyes.
They walked side by side, their conversation as easy as ever. M/Nâs laughter rang out like music as Hugh recounted a particularly embarrassing audition story, and Hugh found himself utterly enchanted by the way M/Nâs eyes lit up with every new detail.
As the sun dipped lower in the sky, painting the park in hues of gold and orange, they paused by the lake. Hugh turned to M/N, his expression softening. âYou know, I canât remember the last time I felt this... grounded.â
M/N tilted his head, studying Hugh with a curious smile. âWhat do you mean?â
âI mean,â Hugh began, his voice steady but warm, âbeing around youâitâs like I can just be myself. No spotlight, no roles to play. Just... Hugh.â
M/Nâs cheeks flushed slightly, but he held Hughâs gaze. âWell, Hugh, I think the worldâs leading man deserves that. And if I can be the one to give it to you, then Iâd say Iâm pretty lucky.â
Hugh chuckled softly, stepping closer. âLucky, huh? I think Iâm the lucky one.â
Before M/N could respond, Hugh closed the distance between them, his hands gently cradling M/Nâs face as he kissed him again. This time, the world didnât just fadeâit disappeared entirely.
Hughâs lips left a heated trail along M/Nâs jawline, drawing a soft gasp from him as Hughâs hands slid down to rest firmly on his hips. The moment crackled with electricity, their mutual desire unspoken but impossible to ignore. M/Nâs fingers tangled in Hughâs hair, pulling him closer, as if afraid the connection would vanish if he let go.
âBack to mine?â Hugh murmured against M/Nâs ear, his voice husky and low, sending a shiver down his spine.
M/N nodded, his eyes dark with anticipation. Without another word, they hailed a cab, their hands entwined and hearts pounding in unison.
The ride to Hughâs apartment was charged with silent tension, their stolen glances and playful smirks speaking volumes. As soon as the elevator doors closed behind them, Hugh pressed M/N against the wall, his kisses deepening with an urgency that left them both breathless.
Inside the apartment, the cityâs glow filtered through the windows, casting soft shadows across the room. Hugh guided M/N to the couch, his hands never leaving his body as he whispered, âTell me if itâs too much.â
âItâs not enough,â M/N replied, his voice laced with both challenge and longing.
Hugh grinned, his confidence unwavering as he met M/Nâs daring gaze. âCareful, love. Iâll take that as a challenge.â
With that, he swept M/N off his feet, carrying him effortlessly toward the bedroom. The soft click of the door closing behind them seemed to echo, marking the start of something both tender and fiery.
Hugh placed M/N gently on the bed, his weight settling beside him as he leaned in to trail slow, deliberate kisses down his neck. Each touch was careful yet searing, a balance of passion and restraint. M/Nâs hands roamed over Hughâs broad shoulders, savoring the strength beneath his fingertips.
âYouâre incredible,â Hugh murmured, his voice thick with adoration as his hands traced the curve of M/Nâs waist. The night stretched on, filled with whispered confessions and stolen breaths, their connection growing deeper with each moment.
By the time the first light of dawn painted the skyline, they lay tangled together, content in the quiet intimacy they had created. Hugh pressed a final kiss to M/Nâs temple, a silent promise of more nights like this to come.

is this falling?
pairing. dan heng x reader synopsis. you (try to) do dan hengâs eyeliner. it fails miserably but also succeeds wonderfully. authorâs note. guess who decided to write instead of studying for their last final. also this was prompted because i remembered that i probably have to rely on my very poor eyeliner skills again when i cosplay stelle. sigh.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/8d05971d896f9dca6a06992c5184a283/ccc3f8d24c0e32db-3e/s540x810/f4d13a69da0267666b6e8d354aef9ebab2de6fb9.jpg)
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/6d26e7d71e3175993d0ae4cef4f4a3c1/ccc3f8d24c0e32db-f4/s400x600/493a22e1a834316b6c6a3871df7a78ae4cde692e.jpg)
"are you sure i don't look like a clown yet?"
you rolled your eyes, trying to get your hand that was holding his eyeliner steady. your brows must have been furrowed as you tried so hard to concentrate that prompted that quip from dan heng, who was laying below you as you attempted to recreate his signature look.
which ⌠you were failing in, by the way! you were no good with makeup, that you wondered how long your boyfriend had practiced to perfect his eyes every single time. ânope, nope. i got this, just relax.â
âsure, love. iâll relax just as you gauge my eyes out with that eye pencil.â you scoffed, before holding his shoulder down in an attempt to steady yourself. you didnât even know why dan heng asked you to do his eyeliner for him â given the fact that he could do it flawlessly, there was no reason to ask you, his partner who could barely draw a straight line with a ruler, to do it.
still, you were determined to finish it. you wanted dan heng to see that you could meet his expectations and put his eye makeup on him! but now, look where ambition and pure ego got you. âhey, thatâs not supposed to go on the eyââ
âoh hush now, iâm the artist right now, mâkay?â
you couldnât tell if dan heng let out a low chuckle or a groan, but nevertheless, you were now in the zone. you leaned in closer, with your line of vision now laser focused on his eyes. you hadnât realized just how enchanting they were, but now that you were getting a dangerously up-close view of them, you were reminded of just why you fell in love with him in the first place.
well ⌠ignoring the fact that there was a stray line of red eyeliner on his brow, but still. you could feel your cheeks starting to get flushed, when a sudden beeping noise came from your phone. you jumped and reached over for it, but dan heng seemed to have the same idea and went to sit up for easier accessibility âŚ
your lips met as you collided against each other on accident, to which you yelped in surprise and backed away almost immediately. did you just âŚ. oh, you could feel your entire body get heated all over and you opened your mouth to say something in return but it was cut off when you found yourself kissing him again. kisses with him never got old; it always sent you over the moon, like it was the very first night you shared your first kiss. you felt so floaty and light inside, as you found yourself melting in place.
moments after the both of you pulled away, you straightened your shirt and cleared your throat. the both of you were suddenly awfully quiet, as dan heng hadnât spoken since that exchange you had. you had figured he had this all planned, but dan heng looked even bashful right now that a chuckle escaped you. he simply groaned, his cheeks now getting flushed. oh, you loved this man very much.

Meet Cute
Author's Note: This is my first attempt at playing around with AI co-authoring, with maybe 75% either being my own work or a heavy rewrite of the suggestions. It's a very crude and ugly little bit smut, but felt good enough to share it. Any stories I do share in the future that use AI for more than editing and brainstorming will be noted as such!
Sarah was so deeply focused on her homework, she didn't notice the man sitting across from her until he started talking.
"You know, girls as cute as you shouldn't need to study so hard," his voice cracked as he wheezed out the words.
Sarah could feel her whole body tense up. This guy had been bugging her all week, pestering her with inane chatter about anime and hentai. She just wanted to be left alone. She looked up at him, glaring at the overweight and unbathed lump sitting at seat on the other side of the table. Her almond eyes narrowing into slits, barely able to keep herself from screaming at him.
"I suggest you focus on your own life, buddy," she snapped back, her tone sharper than a knife.
The weeb recoiled slightly, but only for a pause. After a moment of stuttering, he seemed to regain his undeserved confidence. With a slightly unhinged smile, he launched into another speech about some obscure anime series.
"Like in Duko-Duko Magica?" he continued, completely ignoring Sarah's protest. "The One-Chan; doesn't have to worry about school, her master just puts a replica of her in class so no one suspects she's off having adventures!"
His tone was that of a father trying to explain a storybook to a toddler. This man wasn't talking to Sarah, but down to her. Even without his hunched posture, Sarah suspected she'd still be taller than this dork.
Was he wearing the same, sweat-stained anime t-shirt from yesterday, when he first tried to corner her in the library? Sarah was nearly sure of it, but wouldn't put it past this loser to have multiple outfits that were plastered with girls making faces with their tongues out...
"It's an 'Ahegao' pattern," the man said leaning forward. Sarah had unexpectedly zoned out, staring at him. " Though you know that already, being Japanese! It's actually the 'Mind-Break Ahegao' edition," he continued pointing at his chest. "Limited drop!"
Sarah felt lightheaded and frustrated. She couldn't believe how persistent and presumptive this guy was. While her family was from Japan, she'd never been herself and had never watched anime.
"Listen, I don't want to talk about this anymore," Sarah finally said, her voice trembling with impatience. "Can you just leave me alone?"
The man's face contorted into a mask of disbelief. "But we're having such a fun conversation!" he whined.
Sarah was done with this loser and his racist shit. She started to collect her things, packing them up to escape this annoying prick.
Out of the corner of her eyes, she noticed the man shifting in his chair, looking around nervously. His nerves coming back.
"It's not supposed to take this long..." he muttered to himself. "'Instant changes' is what the site said..."
Sarah paused, confused and oddly concerned by his change in demeanor. She hated this guy from the moment she set eyes on him, yet now she felt some irrational empathy.
He seemed like a pathetic loner, desperate for human connection that he would cling onto anything within reach. That desperation reminded her of her own loneliness, amplified by being a minority in an overwhelmingly white campus.
As he mumbled under his breath, she found herself glancing at his shirt again. The lewd drawings were unsettling, especially since they appeared to be moving - pulsing faintly with each heartbeat. Suddenly, a wave of vertigo washed over her. She struggled to sit upright, feeling dizzy and disoriented. Was it the late hour? Or perhaps something in the air?
Maybe it was too close to the radiator and there was something wrong with the heating system, because she suddenly felt incredibly warm and light-headed. Her hands, which moments ago held tightly onto her books, loosened their grip. She stared blankly at the book covers sprawled before her on the table. In that hazy state, she realized that they depicted scenes from Japanese folklore, images that once alien to her were now strangely familiar. It was like she remembered childhood memories of hearing these stories told by her grandmother during bedtime.
Sarah closed her eyes with surprise at the vivid imagery she saw in her mind.
"Hey, are you ok?" The man leaned toward her, concern etched into his previously obnoxious expression. "Maybe you should get some rest."
"No, I'm fine," Sarah assured him, opening her eyes wide. "Just tired, I guess."
The man nodded sympathetically. "You've been working too hard. Exchange students have it the toughest."
"I'm not..." Sarah began to protest and stopped herself. She wasn't an exchange student, was she?
Sarah thought to herself, her grip tightening around her textbooks. But then why do I feel this strange sense of familiarity? She wondered if she had simply forgotten her heritage due to spending her entire life in America. Maybe her mother spoke tales of Japanese myths during her childhood, stories that somehow lodged themselves deep enough inside her brain to surface now.
"Are you sure you're doing alright?" He asked, peering at her intently. Sarah was taken aback by her sudden attraction to his soft brown eyes. They were full of genuine concern, a stark contrast to his previous arrogant attitude.
For a brief moment, Sarah considered sharing her confusion with him. Yet, she hesitated, fearing that he might exploit her vulnerability. Instead, she simply replied, "Yeah, I'm good. Just need to take a break." She stood up abruptly, hoping to end the conversation. However, as she did, a sharp pain coursed through her legs, causing her to stumble. Mark caught her quickly, his firm grip steadying her. Sarah blinked, surprised by his unexpected gentleness.
"Maybe you should sit down. You look exhausted," he suggested softly.
Sarah looked up at him. Just a few moments ago she'd assumed he was about her height but now he towered over her, looking almost manly in spite of his flabby shape.
Something was happening to her. Sarah didn't fully understand it, but if felt like gravity itself had shifted. The whole world seemed a bit taller, and this man's touch felt like a life preserver she needed to cling to.
"This is... This is all wrong." Sarah breathed out, trying to keep from fainting.
A hungry smirk crawled over the man's face, once that filled Sarah with strong revulsion. She yanked herself back.
"What... what are you doing to me?" she stumbled, catching herself on the table. Sarah felt a strange sensation in her head, this was beyond exhaustion. Sarah managed to ask, her voice trembling.
Mark maintained a deceptively calm composure, though beneath his outwardly collected exterior, he felt ecstatic. He had finally found someone who understood his passion for anime and accepted him.
"Nothing much," Mark responded nonchalantly. "Just trying to help you relax, that's all." "Relax?" Sarah scoffed incredulously.
" Relax? What kind of sick game are you playing with me?"
His face fell, his eyes widening innocently. "Sick game? No way, Sarah. You know me, I'm Mark. We bonded over our love for anime..."
"Oh yeah?" Sarah retorted sarcastically. "And what makes you think I'd enjoy something so... so ridiculous?"
Mark faltered for a moment, looking hurt. "Well, you seem pretty stressed out..." Mark trailed off quietly, swallowing the last of his words.
Anger boiled up inside Sarah, threatening to overwhelm her resolve. "Stressed?" she spat, unable to contain her fury. "How dare you insinuate that you can read my mind? That you can even begin to comprehend my feelings?"
Her voice shook with anger, and she took a step backward, away from him. Mark's gaze followed her every movement, his eyes flickering between sadness and determination.
"I-I'm serious..." she couldn't focus on his face. As much as she wanted to scream, looking at him seemed to diffuse the anger. She didn't want to hurt him, she wanted him to be happy. It was her place to make him happy... "You're just becoming more _you_" he comforted her, and Sarah couldn't help but nod in agreement. This tall, sweet man was just trying to help a confused exchange student. How could she ever have been so rude to him?
Sarah felt ashamed and guilty, wishing she could turn back time and apologize. Instead, she stood frozen on the spot, her heart pounding against her chest. "Mark, please forgive me," she whispered, her voice cracking in despair. "I didn't mean to lash out at you. I'm just scared and confused right now..."
Mark gazed at her with tender compassion, silently acknowledging her apology. "Don't worry about it, Sarah," he reassured her gently. "I understand that you're going through a lot right now..." Mark spoke in a soothing voice, reaching out to lightly touch
Sarah's arm. Sarah felt a shockwave of pleasure ripple through her body. "But I promise you, everything will be okay. We'll find a way to make things better."
Sarah swallowed hard, her throat parched and dry. "I just don't... I don't feel like myself anymore," she confessed, her voice breaking. "I feel like I'm losing control. My thoughts are jumbled, and I can't remember..." Sarah said weakly, feeling increasingly vulnerable.
"You're just remembering who you truly are, deep down," Mark murmured, his fingers tracing gentle patterns on her arm. "You're not just a diligent student, Sari-chan."
Sarah tried to resist, but his gentle touch felt too inviting. "What are you talking about?" she whispered hoarsely. "I'm Sarah. I-I don't know you at all. You're doing something to me. You drugged me or something..."
Sarah winced thinking of what he said. "Sari-chan", the nickname feeling alien and foreign on her tongue. Still, she couldn't deny the strange sense of comfort it brought her. It made her want to lean closer to Mark, basking in his warmth and safety.
"Let's just sit here for a moment, shall we?" Mark coaxed, leading Sarah to sit with him on the cold stone floor. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders, offering her a comforting embrace.
"Mark-san." Sarah said, her voice seeming oddly light and girly. "What did you do to me?"
Mark's arm wrapped around her, slyly cupping her breast as he comforted her.
"You're just remembering who you truly are, deep down," he murmured, his fingers tracing gentle patterns on her arm.
Sarah gasped, her body jolting involuntarily. "What are you doing?" she cried out, instinctively attempting to push his hand away.
"Shh, Sari-chan," Mark hushed her, tightening his grasp around her waist. "There's nothing to be afraid of." Mark whispered into Sarah's ear, his hot breath sending goosebumps down her spine. "I'm only trying to help you. To bring back your true self."
"My true self?" Sarah repeated, feeling a strange mixture of apprehension and excitement welling up inside her. "Who am I really, Mark?"
With a soft chuckle, Mark pulled Sarah closer, pressing her body against his. "You're Sari-Chan. You're the beautiful Japanese girl who's too in love with me to ever say anything." Mark said, his voice sounding confident and dominant.
Sarah felt a surge of arousal course through her veins. The idea of being a submissive Asian woman enthralled her. She'd spent years suppressing her true desiresâthe longing for a powerful, protective man to guide her every move. Now, it was like the floodgates had opened, uncovering buried fantasies she'd never allowed herself to explore.
"Why...? Why you want girl like Sari-chan?" Sarah asked, her voice quivering uncontrollably. "Mark-san is big and handsome American..."
Sarah's own brain betrayed her, her memories of home being replaced with fuzzy memories of cherry blossoms and Japanese villages. Images that weren't hers but now seemed to be part of her deepest self swam in her mind.
"Sari-chan, you're ready to show yourself to everyone, aren't you?" Mark whispered seductively, his hot breath tickling Sarah's neck.
"Oh yes, Mark-san," Sarah whimpered, feeling an odd sense of liberation. "I'm ready to be yours forever."
Mark smiled triumphantly, stroking Sarah's silky hair. "That's my girl," he murmured approvingly.
"I knew you could do it. I could see it in your eyes."

âĽď¸ Ranking Richonne
#6: Cuz I'm Okay Too (S4E16)
Such a heartfelt and important moment in the making of Richonne. 𼚠The scene is brief but still manages to communicate something so important about Rick and Michonne's profound connection. That You're Okay/I'm Okay interconnectedness between them is one of those deep and consistent qualities that make Richonne one of a kind. By this season 4 moment, I really and truly believe Rick and Michonne had fallen in love and I cherish that this beautiful scene is a part of their love story. The scene is a true Richonne classic...
Richonne's love story has so much life to it because it was able to breathe as it evolved each season. And as much as the world was screaming at them - when it came to Rick and Michonne's pre-canon build-up there were these small quiet moments like the one in this s4 finale that still really helped to lay their foundation steadily and naturally.
I appreciate that Richonne's journey was a slow burn (the most fiery slow burn, might I add đĽ) and that we got to see their love story play out from the moment they first laid eyes on each other all the way to now as a husband and wife determined to find each other again. The build-up was as great as the payoff in the making of Richonne and this season 4 pre-canon moment between them is one of the foundational staples in building their relationship.
As Iâve stated before, I consider this 4.16 ep quite monumental to Richonne as I feel its by this point these two have fallen in love. And this scene just really backs that up to me and gives us our first insight into the unique interconnection they have.
The reason why I so confidently refer to these two characters as soulmates is because absolutely every time Rick and Michonne were together it was clear they had a deep mind-body-soul connection and a magnetic draw that showed they were tethered to each other and meant to be.
They were so kismet that even in the beginning of their relationship they seemed to be strongly emotionally connected to each other.
In the early stages of their growing bond, Rick and Michonne really would often look at each other like they were both something special and inexplicably familiar, like a missing piece of themselves that they yearned for and felt innate trust and safety with. And, to me, this scene illustrates all of that.
I also noticed that since I've gotten so used to seeing team family in the 'stability' of ASZ for half the series, whenever I see scenes of them in these earlier seasons where they had no home base it makes me a little emotional because it makes you realize just how little they had, and how much they were being held together by their resilience and their family alone. It's really a testament to their strength and the family they built that fueled them to keep going.
I love the way this 4.16 scene is shot, the fall vibes are just nice with all the leaves as they walk. Also the show did a good job of always making it feel like there was some added weight to when Rick and Michonne were around each other. The two together on screen are just always electric as this scene solidifies.
(Side note: watching this show back, I love how quiet the ambiance was in the earlier seasons, it really made the world feel immersive and lived in.)Â
When Rick protectively sat outside of that car in the previous scene with Carl asleep in Michonne's lap, Michonne heard Rick talk to Daryl about who he is and why heâs here, and her expression as she listens was telling. I know R&M both were more aware of how much they mean to each other from here on out. And then that love only grows stronger, even as soon as their next scene.
So this #6 scene starts with Rick walking ahead, and I love how Michonne is looking at him as she walks closer to him. Iâd love to know exactly what sheâs thinking at this moment cuz she clearly has some thoughts. đ
As she studies him in this scene I really do feel like itâs her seeing the resilient man he is and feeling a lot of genuine love and respect for him. Especially after seeing Rick go to an incredibly intense place to save her, Carl, and Daryl the night before.
Rick went to lengths not many would even think to go...but that level of fight in him is one Michonne knows well. It's in her too. And I think at this moment she knows truly that they are cut from the same cloth.
She silently observes him and, before she even speaks, Rick senses her and asks if sheâs okay. I love that he checks in on her after what they went through.
When Rick and Michonne found each other after the prison fell, they became a package deal and went through most things side by side from then on. And I love that through all the wild things they experienced together, they had each other to check in with and make sure they were okay because they got to be fully human with each other.Â
Michonne nods and says a reassuring 'yeah' and then again has those little glances at him that, to me, suggest sis has caught feelings.Â
Then I always love that Rick proceeds to offer up that heâs okay. He initiates saying that because he wants her to know this and he knows this would matter to her. Ever since reuniting after the prison, Michonne has often brought up the importance of Rick healing and resting, so he knows she cares about his wellbeing and that heâs okay.Â
And itâs also like by offering up, "I'm okay" he wants her to know heâs still okay as a person even after showing that heâs capable of some pretty intense stuff. Iâve always loved this, especially because as a woman traveling alone with men, it means a lot to have a man want you to know heâs still okay and safe to be around.
But then what is so lovely about this scene is that Rick gets to see that he doesnât need to do any convincing with Michonne because she has always seen and understood him on a deeper level.
(It makes me think of when Michonne talks with Merle during season 3 inside the prison. She defends Rick and Carl and notes that they're both killers but she doesn't say it as a condemning thing because even as strangers she understood that Rick and Carl are still good people despite what they've had to do to survive)
And as much as Rick is grappling with all that heâs capable of here at the end of season 4, itâs so refreshing that Michonne is right there to let him know heâs not a monster to her. So when he says heâs okay, she says without any doubt, "I know." đ
Then I so love that Rick asks, "How?" Itâs an interesting thing to ask because he could have just left it at her saying she knows, but I love that heâs curious to know this. Almost as if deep down wanting to know that she really does see and understand him as clearly as he sees and understands her.
And when he canât help but ask, I adore the way she looks at him and so effortlessly tells him, âCuz Iâm okay too.â đĽš
Another classic line in Richonne's journey. 𼰠And a line that is as powerful as it is pretty.
I know I've said a lot of their scenes are giving romantic but this one is 1000% giving romantic. I mean this dialogue between them could be seamlessly inserted into a romance movie and I'd be like...
And it is just such a sweet sentiment - "Cuz I'm okay too." Similar to Rick's "Must've been something else then," line, I'd love to know exactly what Michonne was aware of regarding her attraction and feelings for Rick at this time.
Itâs significant for Michonne to vocalize this and let Rick know that she has developed enough feelings for him that his well-being impacts her own. Heâs okay, so sheâs okay. And we see that 'you're okay then I'm okay' thing that they have play out in so many moments between them in this series.
One that comes to mind is an honorable mention scene in s5 at Alexandria when Michonne canât sleep, and then we see that Rick has also been up and unable to sleep. Itâs almost like Rick's restlessness played a part in what was affecting Michonne's ability to rest.
And Rick even vocalizes as much when he asked why they're both awake before touching her shoulder and her reacting in a way that further proves their magnets. Something innate within them is so often on the same wavelength, even when they have some different outlooks.

I love these TWD reactors who noted how Rickâs mind silently racing was still so loud to Michonne and keeping her up in that s5 scene, whereas if Rick would sleep she probably would be able to fall asleep too.
Rick and Michonne are just one like that and they have always been so emotionally intertwined. They don't just understand what the other is going through, they feel what the other is going through. #TetheredSoulmates
So I love and appreciate this s4 finale scene for fully establishing Rick and Michonne's unique and heartfelt interconnection - both that they have it, and that they deep down know they have it too.
Rick nods after Michonne says this, and this subtle moment just feels like he gets what she means. She doesnât even have to explain further cuz I think he knows he feels the same - You're okay, I'm okay.
And then the way Michonne is looking at that man at the end of this scene...Cupid got her, yâall. Just like Cupid got Rick lol. đ
Richonne really was inevitable because right here in s4, seasons before their canon ep, these two loved each other and had at least some awareness that the connection between them runs deep.Â
Am I smiling from ear to ear rewatching this? Best believe. They just go together and itâs so clear here. And I love looking at this scene and knowing this is a husband and wife in the making who will bring a beautiful baby into this world. Won't He do it! đđž It's scenes like these that confirm to me why Richonneâs pre-canon and post-canon moments are both top-notch.
As Michonne will tell Carl in a beautiful bonding moment later in the s4 finale, she knows the Grimes boys brought her back. They helped make her okay again. And the way Michonne brought so much good to Rick and Carl's lives, she brought them back too.
So Iâll forever love that in this quiet scene between Michonne and Rick, we see so clearly how they help make each other feel more than okay. đ
