Please can you write something to do with young John and the ballerina kinda like a continuation for the smoking fic

Ah yes, the infamous shotgunning the cigarette fic… I have gotten a lot of requests for that one, and have tried a few times now to actually sit down and write for it, but haven’t had any luck in producing something that I thought was worthy of posting. I have been working on a bigger project for my writing, but seeing this ask today inspired me to finally come up with something to further this idea. I will link the original fic here as well if anyone would like to read that one first, but you don’t need to in order to read this one! Thank you for sending this ask in today, and believing in my writing enough to want to read more, it means the world to me <3

Premise: It’s been days since you last saw Jardani, and all you’re left with is the taste of his lips on yours, and the smoke of his cigarette in your lungs. That and the memories you two made together here in this place of shadows and secrets. You reflect tonight as you lean out your window of your room, a cigarette loose in your hand.

Tags/CW: young!john wick, ballerina!reader, smoking, yearning, love that blossoms where it should not grow, aching, melancholy, a unspoken connection, drabble 1.1k words.

It doesn’t taste the same, not without his softness breathing the smoke into your lungs, breathing life into your body that aches for more than this. The want inside you doesn’t burn anymore, not when he’s gone. It smolders.

You feel like a fire that was left out in the cold too long with no one to stoke it, and he’s only been gone a week. You knew that when you and Jardani shared that moment, you may never see him again. That he was on his way to getting out of this place, that he had become what The Director always wanted from him. A weapon. A tool. A dog that bites on command.

He would make her a lot of money, this much you knew.

Still, you sit against the window sill of your little crummy room, the walls here having seen more girls than you can imagine in it’s time, seeing them come here innocent, then turned into cold blooded killers like a stone overworked until smooth. The smoke from your cigarette thinly rises to the sky, the cold still chilling you to the bone, no one here to share that experience with. You remember when you first came here, first begun your trek into this underground world, ferried here as some forgotten child on the street. You met Jardani soon after, his stay having started when he was much younger than you, you were somehow lucky to begin your training at fifteen in comparison. Now, at eighteen, you wonder what your life could have been like without all this, without him…

Back then, everyone seemed like an enemy. You couldn’t trust any of the other ballerinas, they would take your spot as soon as you gave them the chance. When you were assigned to a new ballet The Director was producing, you wondered who your ballet partner would be this time. When a tall, lanky boy walked in, ordered to practice with you, you had no idea what to think of him at first.

He walked with poise, but his eyes didn’t seem to meet anyone’s. That was until, they met yours. You couldn’t help your heart thumping at that contact, of the thought of actually being seen after hiding yourself away for so long, trying not to give too much attention to anyone in fear that they would give too much attention to you. And yet, here he was, looking at you, really looking, observing you with those puppy dog eyes of his. Later you would realize those eyes had grown into that of a wolf, primed and ready to strike in a moments notice, but for now, he was still young, still figuring it all out.

He had figured out one thing then, which was that he didn’t wish to dance with anyone else after you.

When you two moved together, it was as if you anticipated each others next movements. You felt light as a the brush of cold snow on warm cheeks, barely there at all in his arms. Neither of you knew what that really meant back then, you didn’t ever really even speak to each other.

No, Jardani was the silent type, he always was. And you didn’t try to crack that shell of his, not by poking and prodding him with questions the way the other ballerinas may have tried. Everyone knew Jardani was one of the most skilled here, they wanted to know him better, wanted to know their competition. But you were never competing with him, you let him guide you when and where he wanted on his own terms, and he gave you the same. An alliance without a word said about it. It was as easy as breathing.

Soon enough, a year or two had passed that way, The Director obviously knowing that you two were made to be together on stage, and allowing you to mostly work together there. What you thought she didn’t know about, was when you left the small warmth of your room at night, traveling down the icy fire escape to the boy with sharp eyes waiting for you down below. You wonder now if that was why she sent him away. Was his work getting sloppy from thoughts of you filling his head? No, you could never kid yourself into thinking that, you never wanted to think about how he felt about you, it was safer to not think of what you had at all as being anything more than what it was.

An escape.

And escape you did. Into dark alleys where you said little, but shared the taste of each other’s breath. Finding something warm to cling to that just felt natural, easy, real.

Jardani never needed to tell you how he felt, his hands and eyes showed you, his lips caressed you, his teeth have tasted your flesh and you thought perhaps he may never let go. Now you wonder if he wanted to release you from between his teeth, and there is no way to find the answer in his eyes.

You take a long drag from your cigarette for a moment, holding it in, nowhere to alleviate this heaviness in your chest, not even when it billows out from your chest into the dark sky above.

God, would you ever even see him again?

Your stomach churned at the thought that maybe it wasn’t enough. All that training, all those years of pain and misery for nothing, for Jardani to walk out into that big world out there and get himself killed on his first mission…

You know that some of the others come back often, to talk with The Director about new work, but you also know that there are empty rooms that haven’t been filled since their owners went off for their first taste of blood, never to return.

“Please,” you whisper into the night air, the wind stealing your voice. “Let me see him again, I don’t care how, I don’t care when, but let me see him again…”

You feel as if you’re emptying your heart and soul into a cold, uncaring abyss that makes no promises. And yet, it helps ease the tension in your knuckles as you grip the window sill.

You sleep tonight wondering if he can feel your heart ache a million miles away.

“🕊️🩰🦢. 𝑚𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑦 𝑏𝑖𝑡𝑐𝚑 𝑤𝚑𝑜 𝑳𝑰𝑽𝑬𝑺𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑑𝑟𝑎𝑚𝑎”

faceclaim: Carla Bruni voice claim: Irina Shayk.

┈ ⟡ ( 𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑠𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑦 ) !

Nadia is cunning and charming, using deceit and persuasion to get what she wants. She's a master manipulator but can be disarmingly charming and enigmatic.

She’s intelligent and resourceful, always several steps ahead in any situation. Her ballet training gives her a unique edge in agility and coordination during combat.

Nadia operates with high precision and professionalism. Despite her deceptive nature, she has a cold and calculating side, rarely showing genuine empathy.

Negative attributes: Nadia is a pathological liar, often using people to her advantage without a second thought. She has a cold and calculating side, rarely showing genuine empathy.

Positive attributes: She is fiercely independent and determined, loyal to the select few she trusts. Her alluring charm can easily win people over.

Likes: Ballet, classical music, fine wine, luxury items, getting what she wants…

Dislikes: Inefficiency, lack of control, and sentimental attachments.

┈ ⟡ ( 𝑟𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠𝚑𝑖𝑝𝑠 ) !

Katia: Partner and confidante (often works together on assignments, with a deep bond forged through shared experiences).

John Wick: Acquaintance (respects his skills and has worked with him on a few occasions, though they keep a professional distance…rumors might say she envy’s him).

┈ ⟡ ( 𝑏𝑎𝑐𝑘𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑦 ) !

Nadia's training as a ballerina started at an early age within the Ruska Roma community. Her days were filled with grueling practice sessions, perfecting every pirouette and arabesque under the watchful eyes of her instructors. Ballet instilled in her a sense of discipline, grace, and an exceptional awareness of her body.

During this period, Nadia often found herself working alongside John Wick, another rising star within the Ruska Roma. John's departure from the Ruska Roma was a turning point for many, but for Nadia, it sparked a deep-seated envy. She admired his skills and the freedom he attained by leaving the tightly knit, yet suffocating, world they were a part of. While John managed to carve out his own path, Nadia felt tethered to the Ruska Roma, her loyalty and circumstances preventing her from seeking a similar escape.

Over the years, Nadia harbored these feelings, using them as fuel to hone her own skills and build her reputation. She kept her envy well-hidden, maintaining a composed and professional demeanor whenever their paths crossed.

Minerva (John Wick x reader) Chapter 4

Summary: Y/N, a talented ballerina whose life takes a drastic turn when her parents die and her uncle Winston gains custody of her. In New York, Y/N discovers that her uncle owns The Continental, a hotel for assassins, and is sent to the Ruska Roma for training. Despite her initial reluctance, Y/N excels in the art of killing and becomes one of the most feared assassins in the underground world under the alias "Minerva." Winston pairs Minerva with John Wick, another skilled assassin whom she had grown up with in the Ruska Roma and fallen in love with. Together, they become an unstoppable force, taking on dangerous assignments and making a name for themselves in the underground world.However, John eventually leaves his life and Y/N behind, leaving her heartbroken and alone. Years later, he returns with a final request that will put both of their lives on the line.

Jardani and Y/n finally did it. They graduated from the Ruska Roma. Years of tears, sweat, blood, and pain have finally paid off.

Upon graduation Y/N and Jardani were tattooed on their backs reading “Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat” with a cross, to prove their loyalty and history with the Ruska Roma.

Y/N never thought she’d pack her things and leave Ruska roma. She couldn’t believe she was actually leaving it behind. There was no telling if the things ahead were gonna be worse or better but she didn’t care. She could burn in hell for all she cared, just so she didn’t have to go back to this god-forsaken place.

The director had informed them that Y/N’s uncle, Winston, would come and pick them up and give them a home until they manage to stand on their own feet (financially). Y/n didn’t hate Winston nor did she love him. Winston had shown up a couple of times to “check in on his niece”. The first time he showed up he wanted to see if y/n was worth the training and indeed she was. He was impressed by how far she’d come and was sure she’d be one of the most feared assassins one day. So every now and then he’d show up to check in and see her progress. She wanted to hate him but there were far too many other people to hate in this world and Winston was actually one of the better people in her life. He was quite funny and clever.

Jardani and y/n stood outside ruska roma with their packed bags in the cold new york winter and waited for Winston alongside the director who didn’t seem to be affected by the cold.

And then a black car slowly pulled up and out stepped Winston. He greeted his niece with an emotionless kiss on the cheek and then he noticed Jardani. He’d never actually met the boy. He wouldn’t even know he existed if he wasn’t the director's golden boy.

“What’s he doing here?” he asked the director.

“You’ll take him too,” the director said coldly.

“Nuh-uh, I’m doing no such thing. I’m not adopting your little Oliver Twist. I already have Y/n,” Winston argued. Neither Jardani nor Y/n understood that reference and therefore couldn’t get offended.

“His name is Jardani Jovonovich and you will take him! I raised your little сука блять for 15 years and I trained her like my own and you know very well her potential!” The director gritted her teeth and was all up in Winston’s face.

“He’s the best there is and together they could even bring down the high table if they needed,” The director persuaded.

Winston stepped back and looked back at the young man. And with a sigh, he said: “Jardani Jo–bla bla-vich? You’ll need an English name if you’re coming with me,”

“John will do, sir,” Jardani spoke up respectfully in a dark husky voice.

“John what?” Winston asked.

“John…Wick,” Jardani, now John, said.

“Alright,” Winston shook John's hand and looked him in the eyes, “You’ll be working for me alongside Y/N,”

John only nodded to Winston. Neither Y/n nor John had much of a choice anyways.

“I’ll be taking you both to the continental then,” Winston added and motioned towards the car. John and Y/n got in and looked at each other, unsure of what to expect.

why i think john wick 5 should not happen (all opinions feel free to add whatever you want)

John’s run has already ended. Bringing him back is meaningless, why? He’s done everything already. He’s done every good and bad, corrected (almost) every wrong, sought after his freedom and has achieved his freedom. Simply reviving him for another installment is a bad choice as he has completed his hero’s journey. He’s free. At peace, finally— after four grueling movies, he’s finally dead and at peace.

^ The High Table is still alive, but it’s a system. John is allowed to die with the Table abolished or not. What matters is that he’s finally free from the shackles that bind him to the underground.

Not to mention, for a really beautiful and well established world such as that of JW, it would just feel like the writers and Chad Stahelski are holding themselves back by doing something over and over again. Repetition is boring, and seeing them do something or lead with a different character would be groundbreaking. This is why John Wick 3 and 4, in essence, are the most talked about movies outside of the fanbase— because they’re by far such a huge contrast from the first and the second movies. By contrast, I think they should definitely go with the Caine spinoff and that Ballerina spinoff, as well as that High Table prequel series.

A tetralogy is enough. We don’t need a fifth movie and besides what else is there for John to do? Many of his friends are dead, both Elders are gone, he has killed something as powerful and rare as an Autem Imperator, he has assassinated two High Table members; what else is there for John to do?

John deserves his peace, his freedom
