Part of Your World - George Weasley
Chapter 12
Tumblr media
pairing: George Weasley x fem!Muggle!reader
installment list / previous chapter / next chapter
word count: 4,605
content: mentions of death, depictions of depression, insecurity, plane ride (Arthur has a GRAND time), heavy on the emotions
Tumblr media
December rolled around and the Burrow was starting to fill with warmth, joy, and sweaters, but George still wasn’t acting himself. When he finally opened the shop back up a few months after Fred’s death, George always plastered a smile on his face for the customers and laughed when the younger ones came back to tell the stories of the pranks they pulled, but behind closed doors he lived with a dark cloud encircling him. Even with the total support and comfort that Lee, Angelina, the remaining members of the Order, and his family gave him throughout the grieving process, George still fell into a deep depression. 
As Hermione was flittering around the Burrow helping Mrs. Weasley with odds and ends to make her workload easier, she stopped in her tracks when she saw George sitting in a chair by a window rolling something around between his fingers. Upon closer inspection she realised it was your engagement ring, so with a gentle smile on her lips, she cleared her throat and asked, “What’s stopping you from going to get her?”
George startled in his seat, his hand instinctively reaching for the wand that was placed on the window sill before he realised it was just Hermione. As he slumped back into the chair and pocketed the ring, he sighed before telling her quietly, “I don’t want her to see me like this…” A single tear escaped his eye that he quickly brushed away before mumbling, “She’s probably moved on anyway, no point in uprooting her new life…”
“Oh George…” Hermione said, her voice heavy with emotion as she tried to hold back her own tears. She crouched down beside him and placed a hand on his forearm as she said, “If there’s one thing I’ve learned from being friends with Harry, it’s that love is even more powerful than magic. That girl loves you with everything she has, and I have a feeling that not even those memory enchantments could stop her from loving you, even if she doesn’t realise it.”
“How can you be sure?”
“Remember when I went to find my parents in Australia?” He nodded. “When they first saw me, there was this look of recognition in their eyes. They knew me from somewhere but they couldn’t figure out where. That was until I lifted the enchantment. They told me that it felt like deep inside their minds there was some sort of locked box that had memories that were just out of their reach. They knew they were there but couldn’t access them. If the same stands for her, I can guarantee you she hasn’t moved on.”
“I’m just…scared,” George admitted as he turned away from her once more to let his tears fall. “I lost Fred, I can’t lose her too…”
“Then go get her,” Hermione encouraged. “I know things have been a mare, but…this is something you can control and it may help you out of this rut you’ve gotten into. I’ve always admired your relationship and how much you two make each other smile even in the darkest times. I think it’s time to bring her home.”
A smile ghosted over George’s features before he nodded, telling her, “All right. I’ll talk with Dad and we’ll start planning. How’s a trip to New York sound?”
Hermione smiled and nodded, saying with a quiet laugh, “You two will need all the help you can get navigating Muggle transport, of course I’m coming with you!”
Tumblr media
Three days later Hermione found herself in the middle of a bustling crowd of commuters making their way through Heathrow Airport. As she walked, her arm linked with Arthur’s to keep him from wandering off, she looked at the tickets in her hand to match them with the boarding gate to their right. “Right, here’s the gate! Flight is due to board in an hour,” she said as she located three open seats near the gate for them to sit at. Seeing the whimsy in Arthur’s eyes though, Hermione sent a glance to George and asked, “Do you mind watching the bags? I think we might swing by a gift shop.”
“I don’t mind,” George replied with a nod, sitting down in the slightly uncomfortable chair. As he watched Hermione scurry off after his dad, George sighed and pulled out a book he had found himself reading a lot since Fred had died. It was your copy of The Outsiders that was heavily annotated by you, but now had some of George’s sloppy scrawl within the margins as well. 
George got so lost in the pages that he didn’t realise that the wait time had passed and his travelling companions had still not returned. “Flight 606 flying from Heathrow to JFK is now boarding. Please find your boarding group and begin boarding when instructed,” came a kind voice over a speaker as people all around George began to stand and look at their tickets. 
Closing his book and starting to look around, George let out a quiet sigh of relief when he saw his dad and Hermione approaching, the former with the widest smile on his face as he pulled something off from around his neck, telling George, “Would you look at this son! A pillow that wraps around your neck! The things Muggles dream up!”
A quiet huff of laughter left George’s lips before he asked, “Planning on sleeping through the flight?”
“Wouldn’t dream of it!” he replied, a giddiness in his voice as the three of them picked up their bags and Hermione guided them in the direction of their boarding group. 
After making their way to their designated seats and getting settled in, Hermione handed both George and Arthur a piece of gum each, saying, “When the plane takes off, the change in cabin pressure will make your ears pop. This should alleviate that.”
“Bubblicious bubble gum, why, George, is this a product from the shop?” Arthur asked, leaning forward to look at his son over Hermione who sat between them. 
“No, it’s a Muggle product,” George replied. A small smile graced his lips before he told him it was your favourite, adding, “One time she blew a bubble so big that I was convinced it was at least from Honeydukes.”
Right after the short conversation ended, the flight attendants began performing their safety procedure teaching for the flight’s occupants. Arthur was completely enthralled by the man’s words and demonstrations as he watched with rapt attention. George wasn’t paying much attention though as the flight attendant spoke. Instead his mind began to wander to you - what you may be up to, how you may have been spending your time in New York, and how he felt like he may be about to completely uproot your new life…
“You okay?” came Hermione’s gentle voice as she lightly squeezed his hand that had begun to drum against the armrest between them as his anxiety began to climb. 
“Brilliant,” he replied quietly in a flat sort of tone, avoiding eye contact as he once more pulled out your book to distract himself. 
“Everything’s going to work out,” Hermione told him, offering a small smile before she too grabbed a book out of her bag. 
George’s concentration was grabbed a few minutes later when the plane began moving down the runway and his dad opened up the sliding window cover.  As he looked out, the expression on his face reminded George of kids looking into the window of Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes. George watched out the window as he opened up his piece of gum and began chewing it as the plane started to gain speed. “How fast are we going?” Arthur asked giddily as he too began to chew his gum. 
Hermione glanced up at the screen that was embedded into the back of the seat in front of her, informing him, “Around 290 kilometres per hour.”
“Fantastic!” Mr. Weasley breathed. His hands gripped the arms of his chair as suddenly they felt a sense of weightlessness when the plane’s wheels left the ground. After a few uncomfortable minutes that George would almost compare to his first time apparating without the intense compression, the flight attendant announced that they were at cruising altitude and that they would be landing in just over seven hours. “How fast are we going now?”
Hermione couldn’t help the small smile on her lips as she told him, “Around 900 kilometres per hour.”
“Muggles are so brilliant!” Arthur mused before relaxing into his seat, his pillow sung around his neck as he watched the clouds pass around the plane. 
Tumblr media
“Why Poughkeepsie?” Hermione asked George as the three of them rode the train from New York City to their destination. 
“It seemed easy enough to remember, fun name too,” George replied as he looked out over the water to the left of the train. He was lost in thought as he looked out on the river, and Hermione could tell that he needed the space, so she dropped the conversation for the moment.
It was roughly an hour and a half before the train got to the end of the line in Poughkeepsie and the passengers all got up and stretched their weary bodies before filing out into the crisp winter air. Hermione had been developing a plan on the way there, so once they were out, she took a glance at her phone's screen and began walking in a direction, leaving George and Arthur to simply follow behind her.
“Excuse me,” Hermione said to get the attention of some patrons of the destination she had put into her phone's GPS. It was a pub that she had seen online posts about your parents singing at, so she thought it would be a good starting point. She said your mum’s name and then asked, “Do you happen to know her?” 
While the bartender didn’t answer immediately, a patron a few seats down called out your mum’s name in a question. “Yes, that’s her,” Hermione replied while turning her attention toward the older woman. “We’re friends from London and we didn’t know what neighbourhood they ended up in around here. See, we want to surprise them, and asking for an address would sort of spoil that wouldn’t it?”
“You’re right there,” she replied with a quiet chuckle. “She and her husband play here pretty regularly when we have live music. They’re good people. Live three houses down from me actually, just a few blocks away. Real pretty house they’re renting. Sky blue with a bright red door, can’t miss it.”
“Isn’t their daughter working in the Kitchen tonight?” the person beside her asked, making George perk up.
“She works here?” he asked, his eyes darting toward where he assumed the kitchen was behind the bar. 
The man chuckled before shaking his head and replying, “No, no, sorry you aren’t from around here. By the Kitchen I mean Hell’s Kitchen. It’s a neighbourhood in the city. She works at one of those restaurants where Broadway calibre singers perform while they wait tables. She’s damn good at it too.”
“That’s right!” the woman said, lightly tapping her forehead for her lapse in memory. “Your timing isn’t too great actually, the whole family’s gone to the city right now. The girl’s got a few performances at her school starting tomorrow night.” She turned to her partner and asked, “What musical were they doing again?”
“Newsies!” he replied after a few seconds of thinking. “If you three wanna catch them, I’d say that’s your best bet. Tickets go fast though, even for college shows, so I’d get going on that if you’d want to surprise them there.”
“That’s actually a great idea, thank you very much!” Hermione told them graciously, making sure to get the information they needed about your school’s play before leading the two red-headed men out of the pub. 
Without a word further, Hermione pulled out her cell phone and began typing away at the little screen while making a bee-line back toward the train station with Arthur and George hot on her heels. “We just got off the train, ‘Mione, why are we getting back on?” George asked, his eyebrows furrowed. The flight had surprisingly worn him out and his body was sore from sitting in that uncomfortable seat for so long. That, combined with the mental strain he had been through, George simply wanted to find a hotel and go to bed despite it barely being afternoon.
“I just got us on the waitlist for the restaurant she works at. If we get on the train soon we should be able to make it on time,” Hermione replied simply as she showed him the screen. “And now…” she said after handing the ticket person behind the glass window the proper amount of money for train tickets back to the city, “I got us three tickets to the show she’s performing in!”
“Hermione, don’t you think-” George tried to say, but was cut off. 
“I think what you’re trying to say is ‘Thank you,’” she told him matter-of-factly as the three waited for the train once more. 
“I just… What if…” George started, unsure how to end his sentence as his mind once again drifted off toward where his subconscious had liked to take him ever since you left: seeing you with a mystery man and moving on from him and the future he pictured with you. The future that sometimes he felt was the only thing keeping him afloat. “I don’t want to mess this up… If I see her happy there…”
“You’ll feel conflicted about what to do,” Arthur said, nodding solemnly at his son as he rubbed his shoulders. 
“Exactly. I just feel like if we restore her memories it’ll ruin everything she’s built here. And her happiness is what matters,” George said, looking down at the cracked concrete beneath his shoes. 
“You can’t make that decision for her though,” Hermione said. “Once their memories are restored they can decide what they want to do. But it isn’t fair for you to suffer like this and it isn’t fair for them to live the rest of their lives with missing memories when they’re so easily restored.”
A train horn blared as it pulled into the station and its occupants exited before the three of them made their way on and into seats once more. Arthur smiled softly at his son before telling him, “I bet seeing her tonight will pull you right out of that head of yours.”
Tumblr media
And boy was he right. They hadn’t been lucky enough to get you as a server, but the moment they were seated and you made your first appearance singing the song She Used to be Mine from a musical called Waitress, George practically felt his heart swell in his chest. Feelings of love filled him, but also sadness and heartache for everything that happened in the last two years. 
Those feelings of sadness soon lifted though when throughout the meal you ventured all over the restaurant between serving your tables, belting out songs you would sing in the shower back home. With those memories flooding his mind, George finally cracked a small smile as a different feeling took over. A feeling of longing. Longing for you in his arms. To feel your gentle touch and hear your comforting words. To laugh with you. To hear wedding bells as you stood across from each other and vowed to spend the rest of your lives together. To hear little footsteps running up and down the steps at the shop a few years down the line. To just be with you. So as the meal closed out and the entire wait staff sang You Will Be Found from Dear Evan Hansen, George found himself holding back tears while he, along with the rest of the restaurant’s guests, applauded the performers. 
Hermione’s words from earlier rang in his ear as they exited the restaurant and made their way to somewhere to stay for the night, but George knew that no matter what decision you made when your memories were restored, he would be right there by your side. If that meant moving the shop to New York then so be it. All George knew was that you were the puzzle piece he needed. Even though that puzzle would never truly be complete without his twin, if he at least had you by his side, he could be held together again.
Tumblr media
The plan was to meet up with your family after the show the next evening, and Arthur would lift the memory enchantment he placed on you all. During the show, George’s confidence in Hermione’s assurance that you hadn’t moved on wavered as he watched you on stage playing Katherine falling in love with Jack. Those feelings of jealousy retreated the moment they snuck backstage and heard you arguing with the same guy in question, telling him, “I’ve told you before and I’ll tell you again Dalton, this is on stage only! I have no interest in you off stage!”
“Oh come on Doll, you know I could show you a good time! You loved tonight’s kiss!” Dalton said, his hands snaking their way to your waist as he tried to pull you into another kiss. 
At the sight, George had had enough, so as he advanced toward you two, he called, “Oi mate, she said to back off!”
“Lover’s quarrel, back off pal,” the sleazy guy said with a smirk as he pulled you closer. 
“Get your hands off of me,” you said in a low voice as you struggled in Dalton’s arms. 
“Oh come on baby, you know you-” he said, but before he could finish his sentence, he was grasping at his nose as his bogeys began flying out. In the shape of bats to be exact. “What the-?” he shouted with a start before abruptly separating himself from you and running off. 
When he was gone was when you finally looked up to see who had gotten Dalton off of you. You hadn’t recognized the voice as someone from the company, but knew you had heard it somewhere before. Looking up, you saw a tall ginger man who was dressed rather handsomely in a purple coat, something not too conventional, but he made it work. There was something so familiar about his soft eyes and smile but you couldn’t quite put a finger on where you had seen him before… 
“Thank you,” you told him after you realised you were staring for longer than you probably should have been. “I’m not sure if he was trying to stay in character for audience members or what but… Thank you for the save.”
Before George could reply or Hermione or his father could scold him for using his magic so brazenly, you all heard another pair of familiar voices enter the doorway behind you. “You did amazing tonight, sweetheart!” your mum praised you as she took you in her arms and into a bone crushing hug. 
“All that rehearsal time paid off!” your dad told you with a smile as he presented you with a small bouquet of flowers. He turned his attention toward George, Hermione, and Arthur before asking, “And who may these three be?”
“Old friends from London,” Arthur told him, stepping forward and slipping his hand into his Muggle approved coat where he was storing his wand. “I need the three of you to stay very still for a short moment if you don’t mind. And Hermione, George, please make sure no one else is around.”
“No one else is around-” your dad started, his eyebrows furrowing as he saw the older man reach into his coat. “Hey what do you think you’re-?” But before he could finish his sentence, Arthur had already taken out his wand and waved it, effectively lifting the memory enchantment he had placed on your family. 
“George?” you whispered, your voice thick with emotion as everything came flooding back to you all at once. Your first time meeting George at Regent’s Park, all of your dates since, discovering that he was a wizard, the magical majesty of the Burrow and the horde of red headed witches and wizards who occupied it, every magical spell you had witnessed and every potion you had drank, the magical joke shop, and everything in between. On top of the good though, you also remembered the fact that there was a Wizarding war going on, how there were laws prohibiting your relationship and that you ended up in New York to save your family from the wrath of Dark wizards, as well as how you were tortured by an Unforgivable Curse that wracked your entire body with pain mere days before you left. And now George was standing in front of you with tears in his eyes as he held out his arms in an offer to hold you for the first time in… Wow, sixteen months…
Without a further thought, you closed the space separating you two, and George pulled you into the most bone-crushing hug he had ever given you. His body rattled with emotion as he cried into your hair, some of the weight of the last sixteen months lifting off his shoulders. “I missed you so much…” George managed to choke out as you rubbed soothing circles onto his back. 
After the two of you separated from your embrace, you leaned up to kiss George on the cheek before asking, “So is it over? The war?”
“Yes,” Hermione answered from her place behind George. “Harry finished off You-Know-Who and things have slowly been going back to some semblance of normal.”
“That’s good to hear!” you said, a wide smile on your face. You thought for a moment before asking, “So then if everything’s over and you all are here, then that means…?”
“That means there is a lot to discuss about next steps,” Arthur said as he placed his wand back into his coat as a nearby door opened and a few cast members ambled through the backstage area. 
“That there is,” your mum said thoughtfully. “There’s still a whole weekend of shows ahead of us though, so can we table the subject for later?”
“Yes, we don’t want to rush anything,” Arthur agreed with a nod. 
He glanced over toward you and George before turning to walk out of the room with your dad, your mum, and Hermione, the former of which asked, “So about that last conversation we had before we left about magic being real…”
As you and George followed loosely behind, George pulled out his wand and produced a bouquet of your favourite flowers before telling you, “Your performance was outstanding tonight. You got one of your dream roles yeah?”
“That I did!” you beamed, graciously taking the wonderful smelling flowers from George with a loving smile. You took his hand with your free one and said, “I bet with the war over business is booming at the shop! Where is Fred anyways, I’d have thought you would have brought him with you. Especially to New York of all places, it’s a great place for a ladies man like him!” 
When you said those words, George froze in place. He didn’t think about having to tell you about Fred… You, too, stopped abruptly when he did, your eyebrows lacing together as you asked, “Everything all right, love?” The floodgates opened once more as George shook his head, trying to wipe away his tears that he couldn't seem to stop at the mention of his brother. Sensing something was off, you quickly wrapped your arms around George and asked, “Did…did something happen to Fred…?”
George nodded rapidly, a choked sob escaping his throat before he managed to whisper, “He died… Death Eaters. Explosion… Wasn’t even there…”
“Oh my God…” you whispered, your voice breaking upon hearing the news as you pulled him impossibly tighter in your arms. “I am so, so sorry, George…” George didn’t know what else to say, so he simply let you hold him for a few minutes while you both mourned Fred silently in each other’s arms. 
When you both finally pulled away from each other, you coaxed George to lean down a bit to place a kiss to his forehead. He then pulled out his wand and used some magic to erase the evidence that you had both been crying before you both headed out the door to meet with the rest of the group. Many things were discussed on the train ride back to Poughkeepsie that night, mostly just catching both families up on what had happened since you all left London, but you all agreed to table the important talks for Monday after the show closed and the semester was finished for you. 
Tumblr media
“Of course we’re moving back home!” you told George with a broad smile on your face as the two of you sat on your bed with your back pressed to his chest. George played with your hands absentmindedly as you talked, the left of which was once again sporting your engagement ring. 
“Really?” George asked, his movements halting at the news. 
“Yeah!” you replied, leaning over and turning your head to place a kiss to his cheek. 
“And that wouldn’t completely uproot everything you’ve clearly built while you’ve been here?” George asked hesitantly. 
“Absolutely not,” you replied quickly. Hermione had informed you about George’s growing insecurity about that exact sentiment, so it didn’t come as a total shock when he asked. “The connections I made while here will open up doors for me back home, they don’t end here in New York. One of my professors has been talking with some people over at the West End about me, actually, and I think that��ll be my in when we get back! Now, I still have to finish up my schooling, but it’s always good to have the connections!”
“Brilliant,” George said, a small smile creeping onto his features at the fact that he would have you back home with him. 
There was a knock at the door a few moments later followed by Mr. Weasley saying, “Come on now George, it’s time to start getting the house packed up!”
“I’ll get started in here!” George called back through the door as he and you disentangled yourselves from each other and stood up. 
While George took out his wand and summoned your luggage and some shipping boxes, you grabbed something off of your dresser and made your way to your bedroom door, excitedly calling out to Mr. Weasley as he walked down the hall, “Hey! I think I figured out how planes work!”
Mr. Weasley smiled with a sparkle of whimsy in his eye as he said, “That’s wonderful! Tell me all about it when we’re on the plane back!”
“Yes sir!” you told him before heading back to your room to help George with the finer details. 
When you emerged into your already nearly packed room, you sighed contentedly before commenting, “I love magic!”
“And I love you,” George told you while snaking his arms around your waist. 
“I love you,” you replied before leaning in for a tender kiss. It certainly wasn’t your first kiss since being reunited, but ever since your reunion, both you and George made an effort to make every single one count. Even with the war being over, there was never a guarantee for the next day, and George was determined to not let another loved one slip out of his grasp, not without them knowing how much he cared.
Tumblr media
reunited and it feels so good! i hadn't written a lot of Hermione (like more than a few paragraphs at a time here and there) in a LONG time until this chapter, and honestly i forgot how fun she is to write! this reunion in the aftermath of the war was a super emotional one, but rest assured that the coming installments are SUPER fluffy to make up for all the angst i've been throwing your way as of late!
likes and comments are always appreciated! xo, brooke <3

Um you asked for prompts and I was thinking if you could pretty please write Pepper breaking up with Tony, and well although it was hard he moved on and after a while he started dating Peter feeling loved, and maybe altough Pepper was the one that ended the relationship she wasn't able to move even though she tried. She tried to find a way to get back with Tony thinking maybe Peter was just a phase and a notch in Tony's belt, but she was very wrong, and now has to carry with her mistake. Thank you, and I hope you have a good time on your time off ❤️❤️
It's been a year and half since Pepper gave Tony back the engagement ring. The last near death heroic save the day experience was a bit much. The last straw as she told Tony.
She packed up her bags and moved out to work from California. She was leaving Tony, not the company.
After a year, Tony and Pepper were back as friends. Tony even came out to California to show Peter the office there.
He told Pepper that Peter had never seen a true beach. It was a short visit, but it brought back memories. And she started to really miss Tony.
But a month later, when she called Tony; wanted to tell him she was thinking of coming back to New York. Friday answered and said that Tony was busy but if it was an emergency she would patch her through.
" Lab time isn't a reason to close people out. Patch me through"
" I'm sorry Ms. Potts but Boss is not in the lab. He is out on a date."
That caused Pepper to pause. Friday wouldn't have divulged that unless she was making a point. Tony was off limits to her now.
Then a few weeks go by and she tells Tony during one of there weekly business calls that she plans on making a trip out to New York. Probably will stay a few months, maybe more. Tony was fine with it, tells her he will set up a floor in the tower with her.
She wasn't expecting to have a floor so much lower then what she expected. There were more then 15 floors between the lab and closer to 20 between Tony's private quarters.
After a few weeks, Pepper finally finds out who Tony is dating.
" This meeting is important Tony! Even if you only stop in for 20 minutes."
" I'm going to be upstate with my boo. I could video in. Maybe. But depending on how busy I am" Tony wiggles his eyebrows and has a big smile on his face. "But then again Peter might take away lab time again if I put off my duties..."
Pepper rolls her eyes. " Whatever Peter has to get you to do your job. Then you can go run off with your boo. "
" Well seeing them as one and the same thats easier said then done"
"What?"
Tony pauses and spins around in his chair that was at his work station. He watches Pepper for a moment, head tilted, before his eyes widen and he snaps his fingers.
" Ah... you don't know. I'm dating Peter..."
" Teenaged Spiderman??"
"Hold on now! He is 21 now and its only been for the last 6 months. I thought I told you?"
Pepper rolled her eyes. " You said you were dating a pretty young thing. Not your one-time fake intern hero worshiping Spiderman little genius this could cause such a scandal Tony!"
" No scandal! Everything by the books. We are fine Pep"
Shaking her head, she sighed, " If you say so, Tony, but at least warn me so I can run P.R. when you are done"
Tony didn't talk to her for a week after that. But Pepper knows Tony. He indulges too much. He will either get bored with Peter once the novelty runs out, or Peter will break it off when he gets jealous of how much Pepper knows Tony.
Pepper easily slotted herself back into Tony's life. Everything was pretty much the same. The only thing is she just wasn't physical with him like before and that she wasn't going to bed with him. But they acted the same.
She had a secret weapon, though, her red suit. Custom designed by Tony, his favorite hot rod red color, Tony could NEVER resist her in his suit he made. At around midnight, she walked down to the lab, and she frowned when the door wouldn't open.
" Friday, I need to speak to Tony"
" I apologize Ms. Potts but Boss is unavailable"
" Its important Friday, just open the door."
" Let me clarify. Boss isn't in the lab. Peter has already carried Tony off to bed. Tonight was date night and Tony is required to sleep a minimum of 6 hours. "
Pepper blinks and stares. She has never been able to get Tony out of the lab. Ever. The most she ever got was sweeping in, they leave to make love, and then Tony would leave her to come back. Only two hours of sleep if they shared a bed from Tony, if that.
Tony has never given up lab time. For anyone. But for Peter it seems.
It dawns on her. She has seen Peter hand things to Tony. Peter putting a reassuring hand on Tony. Peter brings food to Tony to make sure he eats. Peter is working alongside Tony in the lab. Tony appears more relaxed. He seems less stressed and happy.
The familiar ache starts in her chest.
She has missed her chance.

okay, posting some matt x peter, spideydevil stuff.
this is just a quick little blurb of nonsense that was inspired by tasm2 with peter hating the itsy bitsy spider song.
writing ft. foggy and jen walters and peter isn’t actually directly in this. but it’s fine. just, listen, this is ridiculous okay? my writing partner and i bantered about this and i wrote this for it.
🍸itsy bitsy
the annual new york law journal’s attorney of the year award banquet reached the point in the evening where those in attendance have switched from that air of professionalism while awards were accepted and speeches given, to taking full advantage of the open bar.
scheduled to end at 9:30, the reception hall was booked through until midnight. a tradition for those in attendance to enjoy themselves and let down their hair – as they say. foggy is seven pina colada’s deep, working on his eighth, with one of the little umbrellas tucked behind his ear.
matt, far more sensitive to the overall effect of alcohol, has gone shot for shot with jennifer walters. while not in her hulk form, matt has a slight advantage over her. that only lasts so long after the fifth shot, which was supposed to be high end tequila but was something far stronger, matt has to focus hard to work against the alcohol in his system.
it’s not that he’s a lightweight, six foot one and just over two hundred pounds, his body mass can easily handle the alcohol without concern of reaching dangerous levels. but the sensitive nature which matt experiences the world around him is quickly thrown out of equilibrium with the introduction of alcohol.
jennifer is ordering another round, “matt you gotta quit, you just gotta quit.” foggy warns, all to knowingly but too intoxicated himself to do anything about it.
“shush, franklin, i’m fine.” he isn’t, not really, but any consideration into his state is derailed when his phone rings. “hang on, peter’s calling me.”
‘the itsy bitsy spider crawled up the water spout –‘
“I hate that song, I hate that song so much.” peter says, after someone, for what had to be the umpteenth time, mocked spider-man with it while out on patrol.
“it’s not that bad of a song.” matt says, a suspicious smirk already covering his lips.
“it is a terrible song! if you had some children’s song about a daredevil people sing sarcastically at you, you’d feel the same.”
matt’s nodding, “yeah, of course, absolutely not going to set that song to your ring tone now.”
“matthew.” peter’s expression flat, the voice over feature on matt’s phone guiding him, out loud, to setting a customized song. “matthew!”
‘- down came the rain and –‘
“hello, mr. parker, i was just, thinking about you.” matt says, a little overzealous to be talking with his husband, despite doing so not even four hours previously.
on the other end of the line peter bites back a laugh, disappointed he couldn’t attend the banquet with matt this year due to his own engagements. however, still plans to be there to pick his intoxicated husband up in a cab to ensure he gets safely home. they hold a short conversation, coordinating times to meet and exchanging their goodbyes before hanging up.
jennifer is putting another shot glass into matt’s hand. “why is peter’s ring tone the itsy bitsy spider?” she asks, leaning against the bar. every other person that calls matt, his phone simply announces the caller’s name in a rather dull electronic voice.
“because he hates it.” foggy chimes in, had his fair share of hearing peter complain about it over the years.
matt’s nodding with a wicked grin, “yeah. although… it doesn’t really fit.” he leans towards jennifer, “’cuz i’ll tell you what, there’s nothing itsy bitsy about that spider.”
jennifer sputters a laugh, and even foggy is amusingly rolling his eyes, but in unison - “matthew! shut up.”

He SAID getting another cat would be irresponsible this very year😭 He also said few months back that he wants a child of his own but that's not the kind of thing u plan. Maybe Kelly isn't ready of another baby as it'll restrict her travelling or whatever but then it'll also tie her to Max forever so why not? // max also said a while ago that he only wants kids when he is completely done with racing? So the sentence about you can’t plan kids is most likely a statement for Kelly so she gets off his back. Many years ago on steppies blog people suspected max got a vasectomy because of the potential baby trapping. I remember he/they were seen in Monaco in a hospital.
Kelly not ready for a baby? She is the one who constantly hints at pregnancy. She plays up all the rumours of her expecting. She most likely starts most of them herself too! Kelly is getting old. She is starting to lose her period slowly. Max will be done in formula 1 when she is 40. Max will go to other series afterwards. Max has said in the past he wants to be present 100% of the time for his kids. Kelly won’t be able to give max kids of his own. Kelly can’t use p anymore as her “cute accessory”. P is too old for that now. And a baby max? People would eat that up! Her posting baby pics of a max clone? Alexandra’s engagement plus more. But also on the other hand mummy influencers are losing merit because of pedophiles having access to naked children in sexual poses and stuff (has happened before with p. Most of her baby content pre max can be sexualised by pedophiles because of nakedness or poses)
A cat tying people together forever? Absolutely not. Not even a marriage can do that. Only a child can. You are literally creating a new bloodline with each generation. You are tied together forever until one generation stops procreating or time ends. Kelly wants children and at least one ring on her finger asap. Max wants to wait until after he is done racing.
And when has p ever stopped Kelly from travelling? P is Kelly’s excuse not to show up to events when she got snubbed. Kelly remembers she has a daughter when she isn’t invited to things. Nobody asked about New York fashion week and why she didn’t show up. She is not a model. She doesn’t work at fashion week. She is a visitor, a spectator. She doesn’t get paid to be there. She has to pay to get an invitation. She pays for clothes big time for the brands to sponsor invites and an exclusive experience. All her handlers from the brands are for private customers, for the big spenders. She isn’t invited because she is an influencer (she is way too lazy for that). And even since her victim “I’m a single mother and everything is so hard” post she has travelled more and has officially been away from her anxious baby more than she has been in Monaco? Since when does a baby stop Kelly from travelling and parties? She pays other people to take care of her child so she can do whatever she wants. That’s the reason why daniil dumped her multiple times before she fled to Brazil in the first place. She was at so many parties and carnivals when she got there and after the restrictions were lifted. A newborn didn’t stop her before. Why should one stop her now? She has become even more desperate since then…

Profile
Height: 5'5" Age: 47 (season 3) Weight: 134lbs Eyes: blue Blood: A-
Evangeline is the mother of the Clayton siblings. She's also where Elliot inherited his goth style from. Her black hair is pulled into a high ponytail tied by a purple band with silver spikes wrapped around the base. She wears dark makeup consisting of black eyeliner and lipstick, which makes her sky-blue eyes stand out. Her bangs are brushed to the right side, partly obscuring her eye. While hard to see behind her hair, she wears a set of silver stud earrings.
For Evangeline's clothes, she wears fitted black jeans with a dark leather belt with a matching pouch that rests on her right hip. She has a dark green shirt, a deep purple trench coat and black high-heeled boots with silver chains hanging from her ankles. Lastly, she wears black, fingerless leather gloves, a silver engagement ring and her gold wedding band on her left hand, and a silver necklace with an amethyst stone in the middle surrounded by four thistle flowers, each flower representing a member of her family.
Per her suspect appearance in The Brave and the Dead, it is known that Evangeline eats Halo-halo, has visited the Caribbean and knows electronics.
Synopsis
Evangeline Clayton is a Scottish blacksmith and leatherworker married to Cedric Clayton. Together they own a mansion in Cheltenham, England, where they raise their three children: Eliza, Elliot and Esther. The couple often travels for work to meet with clients and occasionally deliver merchandise.
She made her debut in The Brave and The Dead after her Highland Dirk was discovered on a crime scene. It was revealed that the victim insulted her skills as a mother, but ultimately, Evangeline was found innocent of the murder.
During the additional investigation, she and Cedric confessed to their connection to SOMBRA. They told Anders and Carmen that their children's lives were threatened, and if they disobeyed SOMBRA or tried to leave, the organization would kill their kids.
After once again proving their innocence to the Bureau, the couple began working towards regaining their children's trust and love. Evangeline knows that the road to her family's recovery will be long and hard, but with Cedric and their children at her side, she knows a better life and future awaits them.
Evangeline made a small cameo alongside her family when they reunited with Elliot in New York to celebrate the Bureau's victory over SOMBRA. She was relieved to see her son was okay after everything he'd been through with his team. But even more so, she was happy to hear that he would come home with them once the Bureau finished their work. After spending so much time dealing with SOMBRA controlling her and Cedric, she looked forward to spending time with their kids as a family like they always wished to be.
Story Information
First appeared: The Brave and the Dead
Trivia
I got her and Cedric's names from the parents Cedric and Evangeline Brown from the first Nanny McPhee movie
Her style varies from Gothic to punk
She is also a big fan of Steampunk
She suffers from sudden migraines and night terrors since being beaten into a coma by SOMBRA
She also has muscle weakness in her left leg and uses a cane she custom-built for herself on her bad days
She always smells like smoke and leather because of her job
She started going by the name Evan Blackwood because people didn't take her seriously as a blacksmith because she was a woman
She gets a sense of smug satisfaction when people are shocked to find out she's the legendary Evan Blackwood
Even though most now know her real identity, she still uses the name by habit
Her favourite kind of present to receive are handmade. She prefers these over store bought because it shows how much love the giver put into the gift. It's why she treasures all of the cards and little gifts her children have made her over the stuff people have bought for her

E-commerce Photography Production: Crafting Images That Drive Sales
The Importance of Professional E-commerce Photography
The adage "a picture is worth a thousand words" couldn’t be more true for e-commerce. Online shoppers often make purchase decisions based on images alone, especially when detailed descriptions may be overlooked. A poorly lit, blurry, or low-resolution image can turn a prospective customer away. On the other hand, a crisp, professional image conveys trust, quality, and brand reliability.
There are several key benefits to investing in professional e-commerce photography:
Boosts Trust and Credibility: High-quality photos make a website appear more professional, which helps establish trust with customers. Ecommerce photography production Trust is critical, especially when users can't physically inspect products before purchasing.
Enhances User Experience: Well-lit and carefully styled images improve the overall browsing experience, helping potential customers visualize products better. Providing various angles and zoomed-in shots can make the shopper feel like they’re engaging with the product.
Increases Conversion Rates: Clear, detailed photos help reduce uncertainty, increasing the likelihood of customers making a purchase. Quality images convey the value of a product much more effectively than words can, leading to higher sales.
Essential Elements of E-commerce Photography
Lighting: Lighting is one of the most important elements of photography. Natural lighting is ideal, but when unavailable, softboxes or ring lights can help create a well-lit scene. Proper lighting ensures that the product's true colors and textures are captured accurately.
Background: A clean, uncluttered background is essential for e-commerce photography. Most online stores use a white or neutral-colored backdrop to ensure the product stands out without distractions. Some brands opt for lifestyle shots where the product is shown in context, giving customers a better sense of how it can be used.
Composition and Angles: Consistency is key when shooting products. Multiple angles help showcase all the features of a product, including close-up shots for finer details. For clothing, showing front, back, side views, and fabric close-ups can help customers make informed decisions.
Post-production: Editing is where the magic happens. Post-production tools like Photoshop or Lightroom are often used to enhance images, ensuring that lighting, shadows, and colors are perfectly balanced. However, editing should enhance the image without distorting or misrepresenting the product.
Product Styling: Presentation matters. Arranging the product in an appealing way, especially when dealing with fashion, home goods, or food items, can make the item more desirable. Styling should align with the brand’s aesthetic and appeal to the target audience.
Tools and Equipment for E-commerce Photography
Professional gear is often required for high-quality e-commerce photography. A good DSLR or mirrorless camera is a solid investment for those aiming for high-resolution images. New York fashion photography Tripods help maintain consistency between shots, while soft lighting equipment ensures even exposure.
For those just starting out or on a budget, smartphone cameras can also be effective, especially when paired with portable lighting setups and editing software.
Outsourcing vs. In-House Production
Businesses often face the decision of whether to handle e-commerce photography in-house or outsource it to professionals. Outsourcing ensures access to experienced photographers with professional equipment, but it can be costly. On the other hand, in-house production gives brands greater control over the process and may be more cost-effective in the long term, provided the business invests in proper equipment and training.
