In Wind's Era, Legend is in Mermaid form and swimming in the water next to the pirate ship, he calls up to Wind-
Legend - "Wind! What is that at the bottom of the ocean!? Do you know!?"
Wind - "Oh, that's Hyrule Castle! It was recently filled with water because the seal to protect it broke!"
Legend looks down in the water then back up a few times - "I wanna explore it."
Wind - "I mean, I feel like we should tell the others-"
THUD THUD THUD THUD-
Time comes running up and dives into the water putting the Zora's mask on, and transforming mid-air, diving in next to Legend yelling - "NOT WITHOUT ME!"
Time pops his head up for 2 seconds to yell - "Twilight is in charge! We will be back in a few hours!" and dives down.
Legend laughs, shrugs, waves goodbye and dives in after him.
#legend of zelda#linked universe#zelda#lu legend#lu wind#lu time#we need more chaotic Time#lu#Wind would turn around and just tell everyone Time left him in charge#Until Four pops out of nowhere and tells them he's wrong and Twi is in charge#Time and Legend would have so much fun down there!#They need bonding time#Time gets to hand out with 2 of his successors! WHY NOT THE 3rd!?

I have a head canon for the batfam, specifically Tim that when any food he chews it methodically almost unnaturally because Janet and Jack told him to always chew his food. But also Tim once watched Janet take a bite of skewer and chew it so little Tim assumed that if food was on a stick you had to chew it enter-
Batfam: “eating ice cream/popsicles”
Tim: “takes a bite out of a popsicle and chews it”
Jason: I know you did not do that.
Tim: what?

danny and officer martinez's relationship in "late at night, when the nightingale sings" in a nutshell:
Martinez: FREAK! GET YOUR FUCKING KID!
Battinson, on the other side of the crime scene: he don't bite
Martinez, with Nightingale firmly attached his arm, visibly biting him: YES HE DO!
*points at them* Danny is the Bugs Bunny to Martinez's Elmer Fudd.
Another Officer: i can't believe you're fighting with an actual twelve year old. Martinez: i swear to god that is not a twelve year old, that is a little hellion that crawled out of batman's shadow one dark and stormy night and decided to dedicate his existence to tormenting me. Officer: Are you really that mad about him putting a sticky note on your back-- Martinez: thats not the point
in danny's defense: the word "freak" is. a mini beserker button for him for.... obvious ghostly reasons, so like, even if its not directed at him, he still very much unappreciates Martinez's insults at Battinson. Danny may or may not be projecting.
he's not going to hurt the guy! not in any serious or permanently disfiguring way at least! But he is going to leave mean sticky notes on the square part of his spine that he can't reach, and stick salt in his 3AM Late Night Crime Scene Coffee, and kick the bottom of his heel while he's walking so he stumbles. And other petty, infuriating things that tally up and boil over, over time.
#dpxdc#danny fenton is not the ghost king#dp x dc#dpxdc crossover#blood blossom au#dpxdc memes#dpxdc au#the only thing martinez is right about is the fact that danny is. in fact. NOT twelve.#he's just shrimpy because he's half-dead#there's eventually a 'martinez vs nightingale' board in the precinct called the beef board. it tallies every time one of them gets got by#the other. danny is currently in the lead by a wide margin. martinez is very limited in what he can do bc of multiple reasons. but one#of them is the fact that batman HAS punched a cop before. three actually. and he won't hesitate to punch another if martinez actually did#anything to harm nightingale. and also nightingale shows up so rarely and doesnt stick around long enough for martinez to retaliate#or properly plan ahead. its kinda a wild card whether or not nightingale pops up on the scene.#nightingale: i am just a little guy!! the littlest of boy!! baddabing-baddaboom! you wouldn't do nothin to a little guy would'ya?#battinson who atp knows full well that if it werent for the blood blossom danny could turn martinez into a red smear: *would you?*#danny: if it werent for the laws of this land i would have committed acts of violence against You Specifically :)#and also like. every single other officer insulting batman and callin him a freak. they're not safe either martinez is just the poor sucker#that i have a name to give the face to#danny's a good kid but also i don't picture him totally.. hm... mentally stable? he's a little spicy. as a treat.#he's kind at his core but also he found his family's corpses and was isolated from society for 4 months by his abusive godfather and was#poisoned with quite literally the only toxin capable of destroying him entirely and can no longer (currently) use his powers without dying#instantly. so he's! he's doing his best! like between being chaotic and being kind he's def gonna choose being kind but also.#he's living on borrowed time and is in a constant active state of being slowly eaten alive by his own bloodstream. it weighs on ya psyche#danny's barely even processed his family's death and now he's got all this other trauma stacked on top to address. he is Windows EXP rn#tormenting martinez is just. an itty bitty way he can let loose some of the stress he's ignoring.#considering danny's alternate timeline was: world annihilation. he thinks he's doing pretty well all things considered

I know people like to act like spike would be this master at cooking bc he's lived so long, but he's also a vampire. why the hell would he need to know how to cook human food? everything he likes is easier done by other people anyways and probably tastes better bc he didn't have to put any effort into it other than eating
so. do you think it was tara or willow who would've taught him how to make food for dawn
#I can just fucking imagine what a shitshow willow and spike would be in the kitchen#purely bc of how chaotic I think those two would be#tara and spike would do so much better bc the situation would simply be so much calmer#they would have fun in the kitchen I think. I can imagine both of them experimenting with recipes for hours to see what they like best#with willow spike would absolutely purposefully fuck up to make her flustered until she popped and started going off on him#it'd be a fucking riot to him as long as he felt like she wouldn't either explode him with a sunshine spell or turn him into a frog#dawn is not allowed in the kitchen however and especially NOT with spike. lord knows what abomination they'd make#spike btvs#willow rosenberg#tara mclay#btvs#buffy the vampire slayer

Prompt 68
Danny stares up up up at the being cooing down at him, a mass of eyes and tendrils and whatever else twisting in and out of portals, shattering to sand and reforming, buckling into a smaller shape and expanding in an ever moving form. This was not what he was expecting when Clockwork offered to introduce him to Chaos, but maybe he shouldn’t be so surprised.
Bonus DPxDC crossover: Clockwork introduced his lil baby ghostling to his old friend Chaos so they can set up playdates between their two kids. Klarion and Teekl are now being spotted with a white-haired boy and a green puppy that can go giant and monstrous like Teekle, to Young Justice’s (And the league’s) concern
#danny phantom#prompts#dcxdp#dpxdc#Clockwork and Chaos are akin to siblings#Now that the observants are gone he's free to adopt danny#And introduce him to his family#clockwork#danny fenton#klarion the witch boy#Klarion#Klarion is so excited to have an equally chaotic cousin whose twice as feral#DC universe is the equivalent of the daycare center for a bunch of primordial beings#They drop their kids off to have fun#Danny: Pops says I don't have to deal with consequences if I become the consequence for someone named Flash messing with time#Klarion is a slightly older kid whose already been to the daycare giving the tour to their bby sibling whose there for their first day#He doesn't mean to injure the young justice but with realms being uh#fighting is how you make friends#there's some culture differences happening#He's trying to make friends and the YJ crew are attacking and fighting so they must want to be friends too!#he doesn't like dr fate because he hurt Teekl when he was trying to play and that's so *mean*#He's gonna kick his ass if he tries to do the same thing to Cujo#Klarion is going to be so excited when he learns he has *three* whole new baby cousins#and one even destroyed a world already how adorable!

the speed at which iii updates his story after the band account and the fact that he’s the one that most consistently posts tour reminders makes me wonder if he’s running the band account too lmao
we all know it can’t be iv (who btw still hasn’t given us the “full rendition” he teased TWO MONTHS AGO) and ii is off in his little drummer world. ves totally gives me the vibe of someone who would still own a flip phone
#ramble on exie#worshitposting#sleep token#i mean this with no sincerity it’s just a stupid thought that popped in my head#i just think it’s funny to think about#the most chaotic member somehow being the most organized to keep the social media updated? hell yeah#but he also gives the vibe of the most chronically online#the rest of the band was probably like: ‘we hate doing this- iii you don’t mind here it’s yours’#although honestly kudos to iv for only posting during tour and then pissing off to enjoy his life. i wish i had that self discipline

things i think would happen if house of anubis had a TV-14 rating (in 2011):
- victor sr.'s decaying body would've actually been in the senet prison chamber
- joy's downward spiral in s2 includes a drug abuse storyline (into recovery by the end of the season)
- amber is so clearly a closeted lesbian in denial that by s3 everyone is saying "it's okay if you have something to tell us, we'll accept you <3" but she obliviously thinks its about fashion school
- mara's goth phase is amped up x10 and she also goes full wiccan stereotype (with black decor and candles etc)
- bag/room searches would be disguised as drug searches (and maybe somehow victor has secretly trained a dog to smell artifacts??)
- at least one physical bloody fight per season
- rufus dies the same way but eddie gets to lay a few punches on him first
- one of nina's unconvincing lies would be that someone has mono
- eddie wants to have sex but patricia is afraid of intimacy so she manufactures a situation where victor catches them making out to scare eddie. eddie jokingly suggests going in the tunnels but patricia pours a drink on him
- fabian and mick have the exact same gay moments but have to prove their manliness/straightness after
- sibuna accidentally discovers something sexual (like maybe young adult sarah's explicit letters, or nude drawings/photos in frobisher's study)
- there would be a drag show at some point (or at least a scheme involving drag)
- when alfie turns into a child his main gag would be thinking its hilarious that he can swear as much as he wants
- implied that fabian and mara fuck at the end of touchstone of ra
- jerome would be metrosexual
#house of anubis#hoa#truthfully even if they had the freedom to go full gritty i'm not sure they would#the storylines worked so well (as chaotic as they were) that i think they would amplify what existed rather than add or change too much#like i could definitely see patricia smoking weed but i dont think it would be prominent#also they would definitely swear but not THAT much#edit: this list was only created bc the last thing popped in my head suddenly and i couldnt let it go#everything else is just icing

I don’t think people talk about the fact Aha knows they’re in a game enough
Like. They and their followers have been shown breaking the fourth wall. Specifically in the Simulated Universe and with Sampo after Belobog.
The simulated universe is meant to, well, mimic the real universe so the genius society can learn about aeons and past events by simulating them. Which is why it’s so fitting that the simulated Aha realized they’re in a false universe so quickly. The real Aha has already climbed the world tree and witnessed the truth of their existence.
I’ve joked about them ascending to aeonhood because they watched a baby fall before, which is true. But a large part of their true elation comes from knowing they’re in a game. Nothing matters so they can truly do whatever they want. Why not just have fun? They can sow plenty of discord. They can turn a worm into an emanator. They can witness wars and just laugh and laugh. They know it’s all meaningless. That’s why watching everyone else try so hard to keep their fake universe alive is so funny to them.
And this is even shown through the Masked Fools. Sampo speaks directly to the camera and both he and Sparkle have referred to themselves as supporting characters. Their purpose is to put on a show and make the game more entertaining. Would Belobog been as fun without Sampo coming in and making us collectively groan at him obviously trying to scam people? Would Penacony’s events or ending be as mysterious or shocking without Sparkle’s meddling behind the scenes? Penacony would have ended with a pretty boring party if not for Sparkle’s antics.
Honkai star rail needs characters you can laugh at, groan at, and poke fun at. The elation is delighted to be the game’s jester, poking fun at their false universe and the ones outside witnessing it.
#the elation fascinates me#because in a lot of the past events they’ve just. been there#making things more chaotic#and I love to think the meme references in hsr are from aha’s influence too#because there are a ton of pop culture references#but there is also the theory that maybe earth or the source material from those references exists in universe#I mean. Welt is canonically from there#and most of the references come from the trailblazer#so it can be believed they were just taught about Earth’s pop culture by welt#but there’s also the red/blue pill matrix reference#and the npc Star Wars reference#and a bunch more out there that aren’t from the trailblazer or people close to them#so I’d like to think Aha has a hand in that#ALSO in their databank entry Aha rickrolls you#so I think that counts towards that theory#honkai star rail#hsr#the elation#aha the elation#masked fools

Edit: please reblog this with some information about demisexuality, I did make a mistake here by saying "Cove doesn't understand sexual attraction" he does, so my bad on that part
SO, I usually don't get too involved in fandom discourse, but with how Baxter fans are acting about the loss in the MDDB I snapped and decided we should have a talk.
(This turned out longer than expected so more under the cut. I BEG YOU TO READ THIS AND TOP UNDERSTAND WHERE THE ANGER AND FRUSTRATION COME FROM.
This is all over place, I tried my best to make this as comprehensible as possible)
Specifically I want to talk about this fandom obsession with him and how, is getting to a point where people are legitimately re-writing the game and erasing Cove existence to have this fucking man instead.
And look, I want to say that I get the appeal, I do, but I don't because Baxter's route is genuinely the worst written one out of the three; Compared to Cove's and Derek's (and Derek treatment in the fandom is a WHOLE OTHER ISSUE) is really not. I'm not here to judge one taste, I am here to tell you that your love for him is ridiculous.
It is genuinely ridiculous how much popular he has gotten and so many of you are forgetting about Cove and how important he is to the story, and generally how he is important to a lot of marginalized people. Some of you keep forgetting that Cove is autistic and demiseuxal and that is such a rare representation to see and it is already erased in the fandom (especially his autism), but now is even more erased because people are grabbing everything that makes Cove Cove, and are applying it to Baxter.
That is also not touching the fandom treatment of Derek and how overly criticize his route his compared to Baxter's, like...DEREK'S PARENTS ARE GETTING MORE SHIT THAT BAXTER CANONICAL BIGOTED PARENTS LOL, WHAT IS THIS?? Are you guys serious?? I've seen a fanfic with Irene being transphobic, why the fuck would someone write that when Baxter's mom is right there?
And Derek shitty treatment doesn't end here because people are straight up erasing the guy and not ?? talking about on how well written he is ?? He is not erased sorry, he's forgotten, no one cares about him. And when people care is a) rare or b) so criticize to the point where is no longer a criticism but just you bitching about it.
And it doesn't end there! Baxter is so talked about that people are more interested in him making a cameo in OL:N&F than the main characters of that game, THAT'S HOW THINGS HAVE GOTTEN, We've gotten to a point where people cares more about some white man than Qiu or Tamarack, which are way more interesting than him as characters but neither of them are white skinny man so lol, who cares about them.
AND TO TOP THIS SHITSHOW IT SOMEHOW GETS WORSE FROM HERE BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T EVEN ARE CARE ABOUT THE INTERESTING ASPECTS OF BAXTER'S CHARACTER!!
Everyone is molding him like clay to create this, confident rich white boy when he is not?? and that's...the whole point of his route?? That he shouldn't need to put up this mask and to actually be a fucking human being?? THE FACT THAT HE IS A QUEER KID WHO HAD TO CUT OFF HIS PARENTS AND HAD TO BE INDEPENDENT FROM THEM AND LEARNING TO NOT DEPENDENT ON HIS PARENTS? (monetarily wise that is)
And like, people forget the man is queer, he is queer, he's a queer person who had to hide who he is to his parents and then had to cut them out for his own sanity, and no one mentions it.
The fandom as a whole erases queer identities,when this game is literally made FOR queer people don't you love it when straight people come into our spaces and erase our identities lol, that is a problem that more people should acknowledge, alongside the fact that Baxter's stans have taken over this safe space, overtook the main love interest, and ignore the genuine interesting aspects of Baxter's character to make him their own little doll they can play with and not appreciate a guy who is trying to learn how to stop being that mask everyone in the fandom has fallen over.
And I know, I know , I will get shit for daring to go against your favorite white boy, but consider that some of us played this game because an autistic character was in it, consider that this game is queer friendly and the fandom is also erasing that queerness to make horny fan fiction**, consider that some of us fond comfort in Derek and Cove's story and now we see everyone overtaking their stories by a white boy (that you can find in every other game), consider that his talk is tiring, consider also the fact that Baxter is technically queer and no one ever talks about it, consider that this game was a safe space for marginalized people and now it no longer feels that way
.
.
.
**with horny fanfiction I mean people re-writing Cove whole personality (and sexuality if we're being honest here) and making him this...horny big man when...he is not? He got stressed out by simply having to share a bed with MC, he's extremely shy around the subject of sex and he gets incredibly nervous about it.
I personally think that is due of both his queerness and autism (and yeah his personality, but autism affects ones personality so lol, sue me) since demisexuality means he genuinely doesn't understand how people can feel sexual attraction, and mixing that with autism means he probably doesn't understand the SOCIAL pressure around sex and having sex.
Granted that's speculation on my part but as someone who is (probably) autistic and asexual I can tell that, at least a majority feels this way and Cove is literally is the type to have this kind of mentality, he does not understand how Baxter can flirt with him after mere seconds of knowing each other
#our life#soar's rambles#olba#im not tagging that name lol#our life beginnings & always#THE WAY I WAS TAGGING THIS AND HE POPPED UP#GET OUT OF HERE WHITE BOY#but uh yeah#snapped after seeing ppl making shit up for his propaganda#man#i am so tired#like he is an interesting character i loved drinks is an amzing moment#but everything else? trash it#into the fire it went and it didnt stop burning#anyways#it's 10:30 pm i want to sleep i cant#so i might as well get chaotic yknow#our life beginnings and always#ol:ba#baxter ward#nvm i am#I need more people to know about this lol

Inspired by this conversation from Campaign 2 - Episode 85 of Critical Role
Robin slammed their drinks down on the table and fell into the booth next to Steve. The loud music, the crush of bodies up on the dance floor and the low light would be enough to keep their conversation mostly private no matter how loud they got.
“Alright.” She slid over a poisonous looking shot and turned to him. “Dish the dish, bish!”
Steve wrinkled his nose but knocked the shot back anyway. Maybe it was a sign of how much he’d already drank or maybe it was a sign of just how unhinged his teenage years had been but it went down much easier than he thought it would. He needed to get a solid buzz going anyway, Chrissy and Eddie would be arriving soon and he didn’t think he’d be able to get through a whole night of watching Eddie flirt with strangers again without something strong in his blood.
“I might have a similar problem.”
Robin looked at him confused. “Wait, you’re into Chrissy too?”
Steve was scandalised. “No!”
“Gross!”
“No!”
“You were a jock, she was a cheerleader, oh my god this is too hetero for me to be even having this conversation-”
“No, not Chrissy!” Steve shouted in fond frustration, cutting her off.
“Oh,” she said, immediately deflating from her outburst and shooting right back around to thirsty for information, “who?”
He stared at her for a moment, grimacing, trying to figure out how he would delicately reveal his crushing and all consuming infatuation.
Her eyes widened the longer he stared.
“Me?!” She shrieked.
“No!” He shrieked right back, appalled.
“Oh, it’s me!” Robin threw her hands into her hair and turned fully to face him. “This is your way of telling me! Oh my god, Steve, we’ve been through this-”
“Shut up! Shut up!” He shouted, thudding his head against their table before turning his head to look at her, lowering his volume and whisper shouting. “It’s- it’s Eddie!”
She definitely hadn’t heard him but had clearly understood the way his lips formed around the name and her eyes nearly popped out of her head.
“Wait, what?!” Her whole body went reeling. “I’m sorry, what?!” She grabbed him by the scruff like a misbehaving cat and hauled him back upright.
Steve slumped under her hold and shrugged. “It's just kind of, I don't know. It's just a crush, I just don't know what to do with it.”
“Wait, what?!” Robin repeated, glancing up and staring across the dance floor where Chrissy had appeared near the bar, scanning for them. “Three more!” Robin shouted at her, throwing a hand up with three fingers lifted when their eyes met. “Three more rounds!”
“Each!” Steve called. He didn’t know what Chrissy saw in their faces, maybe it was desperation or just the possibility of juicy gossip but even though she couldn’t have heard them so far away, she grinned and nodded, turning back to the bar.
Steve rounded on Robin, bringing their faces close together and poking her in the chest. “If you fucking tell anybody-”
Robin was completely unphased. “Of course I’m not gonna tell anyone! You know- look at this face!” She said, bringing Steve’s finger up to rest on her nose and doing a terrible job of biting down on her grin.
“You tell everybody everything!”
His soulmate had the worst poker face he’d ever seen.
“I’m cool.”
“You are gonna let it slip.”
“No! Of course not!”
Steve slouched in his seat with a petulant fake pout. “I shouldn’t have told you.”
“Wait, what about him?” She nudged at his shoulder. “For me…” Robin looked out across the bar again where Chrissy was lining up their drinks on a tray. “It’s her cute little nose and her thighs-”
“Are you talking about Chrissy again?”
“Yesyesyes.” She replied with an air of ‘keep up’ “its her sweetness and kindness and unflappably positive outlook. But she could also get mean if she has to-” Robin didn’t seem to be entirely aware that the woman she was watching slowly make their way over to them was not just a figment of her fantasies but was actually here and would soon be involved in the conversation.
He wasn’t too worried about Chrissy finding out about his crush, she probably already knew if the looks she’d been giving him the past few weeks were anything to go by.
“What is it about him?”
Steve dragged his eyes away from Chrissy and back to Robin, twirling his empty shot glass on the table, contemplating. “He's fun, he makes me laugh, I like his ridiculous… everything. I think he's complicated and layered.” He glanced up as Chrissy set the tray down. “I don't know.”
“That’s cool.” Robin said, her voice uncharacteristically soft amongst the loudness.
“I’m not gonna act on it or anything!” Steve’s eyes bounced between the two girls. Chrissy seemed to pick up on what was happening immediately, sitting with her elbows on the table, leaning in while Robin stared at him disbelievingly, like he’d just said the most ridiculous thing imaginable.
“I wouldn’t have thought he'd be your type.” She said, giving him clemency and changing the thread of the conversation.
“I don’t think… he thinks… that I’m his type…” Steve replied with a crease in his brow, all the male pronouns in that sentence were confusing the shit out of him.
“So you’re telling me you’re not serious about this? That’s it’s just a crush, that this is not a thing-”
“Yeah, of course!” He exclaimed, not even believing himself and from the looks of it the two girls, they didn’t believe him either.
“Because what if… all he does is go on about how his love life is hopeless. What if he doesn’t even know what he likes?” Robin waggled her eyebrows at him, clearly insinuating that he should pursue.
Steve snorted, reaching for one of the multiple shots Chrissy set down. “I’ve had that fantasy.” He tried to make a light joke out of it but it was all too real in his own head. The amount of times he’d thought about introducing Eddie to all the shit he liked to have done to him in the bedroom and all the things he liked to do in return was downright obsessive.
He knocked his shot back at the same time the two girls did. The drink was definitely getting to him and Robin wasn’t far behind. They were entering Stage 4 Drunk.
Whimsy.
“He could be lost,” Robin squished his cheeks in between her hands, “he could be at sea right now, and you could be the anchor that brings him home.”
Steve nodded. “I could be the flame in the darkness.”
Chrissy was looking endlessly entertained. “I don't think that's how anchors work. Anchor brings you to the bottom, if I recall. Be the anchor that brings him to the bottom.”
But Robin just looked at her like she was agreeing with everything they said, barrelling forward. “What if he's lost because he doesn't know that you're what he's looking for? He thinks he likes-” she waved her arm out to the bodies on the dance floor.
Steve nodded. “I could be his beacon…” he downed the shot, the sharp tangle of alcohol shocking the whimsy out of him. “I need to stop saying these things.” He shook his head. “No, these aren’t any of these things anyway so like… it’s just this- I’m already-”
“It could totally be a possibility.” Robin yanked on his arm.
“It’s not a possibility-”
“But maybe it is.” She insisted with a look in her eye that he did not like.
“No.”
“Don’t worry.” She ran a hand clumsily through his hair, leaning in conspiratorially. “I’ll do some work.”
“nO!” Steve screamed helplessly while Chrissy cackled. “NO!”
But Robin was already nodding to herself. “I’ll find something I can do here.”
“No, Robin! Confiding! This was an exercise in confiding!”
She grinned at him like she was in on some big secret, darting two fingers between their eyes while Steve stared despondent. “I see what you’re getting at.”
“It's very black and white, it's just don't tell the secrets.” He tried to impress upon her, grabbing her hand which was still moving between them. “It's not that I'm getting at anything, it's just that this stays between us.” He glanced over at Chrissy who was looking wildly entertained. “This is our girl thing, okay?”
“Hey, but no matter what, we're not letting this break up the three of us.” Robin used her free hand to draw a circle around the three of them.
“No, absolutely not. We’re ride or die. It's not going to change anything.”
“No.” Robin nodded, seemingly satisfied but Steve still felt like his sanity was still in danger.
“Don't let it change anything.” He pleaded.
“It won't.” She grinned, all misplaced confidence and see-through casual exterior. “I will behave the same.”
“You’re already not.” He insisted, looking at her wide ‘I have a secret’ smile.
“Cool as a cucumber.”
“Oh my god.” Steve grabbed two more shots off the tray, knocking one back but the second was plucked from his grip.
Eddie wedged himself into the tiny amount of space beside Steve, his stolen shot disappearing down his throat.
“What are we talking about? Buckley’s got her ‘I have a secret’ smile on.”
Robin was staring at Eddie wide eyes with a huge grin on her face and if she thought she was being subtle she was fucking delusional.
Shit.
Steve knew from past experience she was about five minutes away from accidentally outing his big stupid fuck off crush so he had to deal with this himself.
He shoved Eddie out of the booth, calling a quick “Going out for a smoke!” over his shoulder and dragging him by the hand towards the back.
Steve wasn’t sure how long they stayed gone, but after two cigarettes each and something wild and intense in the bathroom afterwards, he found he didn’t really care.
