Happy FFWF! Try to find snippet of one of the following words from your WIPs: defenstration; jumbotron; proton; fiber; parenthesis; alphabetical; gross; zebra; semi-colon; runner; quaint; bearded; married; time; cold; right

i could only find a couple of them, but i really like the snippets i have, so here we go!!

fiber (from an incomplete prompt fill)

“Parker Curse,” Ben laughed when they showed up late for Ned’s seventh birthday party because Peter couldn’t find his left shoe.

“Parker Curse,” May tsk’ed when Peter was twelve and slipped on spilled water and had to wear a cast for his broken wrist.

“Parker Curse,” Peter whispered as he stood next to Ben’s grave, feeling like there was still blood soaked into the very fiber of his being.

gross (from my ironhusbands big bang fic)

James wakes up to someone knocking on his door. For a moment, he ignores it, hoping no response will be enough to send the mystery person away—until he hears that familiar voice call out a, “Mr. Rhodes?”

He sighs, slow and sluggish as he reluctantly pushes himself into a sitting position, brings up a hand to dig his fingers into his eye and rubs at the sleep crusting them shut. Even still, he contemplates staying here, wonders the likeliness of his surprise visitor giving up and just coming back later, but—

“Mr. Rhoooodes.”

It’s wishful thinking, at best.

As he clambers to his feet, there’s another round of knocking at his door—though, this time, it sounds like it’s in the tune of happy birthday, which he rolls his eyes at as he pads his way out of his rooms and heads down the hall—followed by a muffled huff and what sounds suspiciously like someone stomping their foot, to which he almost snorts. “I’m going to literally die out here if you don’t let me in! I’m going to die, and then you’re going to have a gross corpse outside your door, because I’ll be dead in the hallway!”

Thankfully, he reaches the door just then, reaching for the knob and pulling it open as he says, “No, you won’t.” He quirks a brow at the teenager that is now pouting at him standing in the hallway, trying not to let his amusement show on his face, instead pushing to project how tired he is in order to make an attempt to discourage random arrivals like this, though he knows, by this point, that there’s not much he can do to stop them, and he’s not sure he actually wants them to stop. “What do you want?”

“Summer,” Peter says—freshly fifteen and with a hip cocked out, showing the little bit of attitude that he knows how to show, the little bit that, not all that long ago, James had no clue even existed.

“It is summer,” James tells him, brows raising even higher.

“Only for, like, two more weeks!” Peter complains with a groan, head tilted back and looking seconds away from stomping his foot like some kind of toddler. It makes the ends of James’ mouth twitch, just a bit, almost betraying his already barely concealed amusement—something that’s even harder to fight off when Peter then makes his way into James’ apartment like it’s his second home, letting a backpack that James didn’t realize is hanging off one shoulder slide to the floor by the coffee table before collapsing onto the sofa with an even more exaggerated pout, brows furrowed and arms crossing over his chest. With a light laugh, James just swings the door shut and makes his way over, taking a seat on the other end of the sofa and resigning himself to the fact that this is going to be the start of his day, knowing that he’s going to have to entertain this conversation before he’ll be able to get away for long enough to start a pot of coffee and change out of his pajamas. “I want it to stay summer. Like, permanently, you know?”

quaint (from the next chapter of the portal closed)

“Have you talked to Rhodey yet?” Mr. Stark asks—before Peter’s even standing upright after landing on the carpeted floor, wheeling in on him with something manic in his eyes. “Did you get ahold of him?”

“I’m working on it,” Peter replies, somewhere between meek because of the fact that he hasn’t made it happen yet and defensive because he is trying and he’s getting somewhere, somehow, isn’t he? He got Mr. Rhodes’ number, left a message today after trying to call twice yesterday, and that’s something. That has to be something and he just wants it to be something good. “I’m trying my best,” he adds after a moment, and he doesn’t mean to sound quant, or small, but that’s how his voice comes out.

married (from a peppermay one shot i’m working on titled all the way happy)

Peter tells her one day, “You don’t have to stop loving him, but I think you need to move on.” He says it while they’re eating ice cream out of the carton and watching How I Met Your Mother, because it’s Ben’s birthday and he loved this show, even if May never really understood why he would watch it on repeat. Understanding or not, she’s seen the damn show ten times over, at least, since they got married, and ten times more since Ben was murdered.

May looks at Peter and suddenly realizes that she isn’t looking at a kid. She’s looking at her nephew, seventeen and childish in ways, but more grown up than many adults will ever be. She sees the contemplative look on his features and the way he appears bashful to have spoken up at all, yet certain that he’s saying something he really needs to say. It’s shocking, to say the least. “What?” she asks.

“I just—” Peter stops, and considers, and takes a bite of their ice cream. “I mean, like—like, you hold yourself back, you know? I can tell. And I know he was—he—I know you love him, and you’ll never stop, no matter how long it’s been, but… but you don’t have to stop yourself from loving other people, too. Maybe you don’t need to, and that’s fine, as long as you’re happy, but sometimes I think that you stop yourself from being all the way happy because you think you could only be all the way happy with him.”

time (from the next chapter of the portal closed)

It’s a gun.

It’s also definitely not a gun.

Like, it’s—it’s something straight out of a sci-fi movie, glowing a bit and way too big to be practical and intimidating, and it’s a gun, yeah, but it isn’t, like, a pistol, or a rifle, or any sort of gun that Peter is familiar with. That sixth sense tingles at the back of his neck as he looks at it and he has an undeniable feeling that something like that doesn’t belong here.

Here, as in Queens.

Here, as in New York.

Here, as in Earth itself, because just looking at the thing is enough to know it’s quite literally out of this world. That it isn’t technology anyone on this planet has seen or heard of or used before.

The sixth sense tingles at the back of Peter’s neck again and makes his palms feel clammy underneath his fingerless gloves and makes his lungs feel like they suddenly aren’t taking in enough air, so he sucks in a sharp breath that whistles, just a little bit, but the sound is just loud enough to bounce off the walls.

And then the person holding the gun is looking Peter in the eyes, and Peter knows that he’s screwed.

There are approximately three seconds between the gun wielder looking at him and the gun actually going off, only this time it’s pointed at Peter and not at the weird industrial barrier that’s been placed in front of the alley wall, and there’s more guys, five or six, if Peter is to guess based on the quick look he gets, but only one of these guns—and when it fires, something bright and blue and baffling comes flying Peter’s way, and he barely manages to dive to the side with a strangled yelp before it hits the ledge of the roof where Peter had been peeking over and that explosion sound is a lot closer than it was before.

Because the explosion sound is coming from the impact of the gun and whatever kind of energy or laser or something that the stupid thing is firing. Peter scrambles to his feet, looks at where he had been standing moments before, and finds a crater of cement and rubble and debris in his place.

So, it’s powerful. It’s strong, and dangerous, and Peter can’t let these guys have it.

He wishes he had enough time to take a deep breath and sort his thoughts, clear his mind, but life has never been super nice to him and the gun is firing again before he ever have the time to blink.

cold (from my mcu rewrite)

“Is he really complaining about us not wanting him to die?” Rhodey asks—rhetorically, of course, as he turns his head to share a bewildered look with Happy, who merely shrugs and plops into his own seat with a barely concealed smile of amusement. “You haven’t even apologized for making me stand in the sun for three god damn hours, and now you’re complaining about us not wanting you to die?” This time, the question, still completely rhetoric, is aimed directly at Tony. “That’s just rude, man. That’s cold.”

Tony doesn’t look very sorry—mostly because he knows that Rhodey is playing up his annoyance in good fun, is well versed in what it really looks like to look a truly pissed off James Rhodes in the eyes, which is just… terrifying, and inspiring, almost—but he still offers a half-assed, “I’m sorry?”

Rhodey glares at Tony for a second, then sits directly across from him. “Sure you are.”

right (from my ironhusbands big bang fic)

Peter shrugs. “Well, now you don’t work there, so you can’t. Sucks to suck. Do you have any coffee?”

“For you? Absolutely not.” James gets back to his feet, ignoring the way Peter whines, making his way to the kitchen. He calls over his shoulder, “There’s some other options, though, if you want to look around. Eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes—whatever you find is up for grabs, as long as it’s an actual breakfast item and not something full of caffeine or sugar. If you’re going to be bugging me today, I refuse to let you give yourself a sugar rush or get so energized that you start doing laps around the room again.”

When Peter heads into the kitchen after James, he looks slightly reluctant, but still grateful as he starts to poke around the pantries and the fridge. “It’s not coffee,” he says defensively, “but thanks.”

That’s the Peter Parker way of saying you know how poor we are right now and I know you’re trying to be subtle about feeding me so now I’m trying to be subtle about saying thank you because I don’t feel comfortable addressing the issue, let alone accepting help for it. James is well versed in how to see through the hidden message, tilts his head in a nod and offers a warm smile before starting up a pot of coffee, leaving it there and only pausing shortly to level Peter with a stern looking, telling him, “Not a drop of that better end up in your system, Parker,” before ambling back to his room to get changed.

Happy Birthday Tash ❤

@duranarchy-in-the-uk

Here is a red, black, white, zebra and leopard print moodboard for you! So much leopard print (no sorry none of these are from my closet). Your blog is of course one of my favorites as we are both obsessed with John Taylor, his wardrobe, that crazy (but catchy) song and his relationship with Renee. Yours was one of the first blogs I found on here - I think I did a search for John Taylor and you came up! 😃 I was so blown away by your Duran artwork. You have helped brighten up my Christmas with your Johnee fics and all the other days of the year too! Hope it's a wonderful day for you today! You deserve it! ❤ Dina

Coming Home (Jax x OC) (Chapter 5)

Hey! Cowritten with @lookprettyliveclassyplaydirtyyt

Hope y'all enjoy!

Warnings: SMUT AT THE END!

Chapter 5:

I woke up dressed in Opies button down and my panties. “Ugh, I know I didn’t drink, why do I feel hungover?” I heard giggling coming from the living room.

“Good morning, babe.” Opie says when he sees me

“Morning. Good morning, Sophia.” I say sitting down next to her. She moves closer to Opie and I look up at him.

“Sophia, why don’t you go play so mommy and I can talk, okay?”

“Okay daddy!” She gets up from the couch and goes to the room she’s been staying in

“Opie.”

“No. I said we would talk about it after you slept and weren’t angry. Do you still want to leave?”

“I don’t know. I was thinking about myself, not of Sophia. She likes it here, and I don’t want to take her away from the people who make her happy.”

“This is also about you. I know that you being here has done something to you in regards to your feelings, but I really care about you. I am not gonna say that I know how you feel, because I don’t, but I do know that there are people that care for you, both of you.”

I scoot closer to Opie and cuddle up to his side. He wraps his arm around me, keeping me close to him.

Opie continues, “we may joke around, and give each other shit for the small things we do, but if you want to leave, you know Gemma and I will help you. SAMCRO is a family, and that is what you both need right now. I know the most stable thing you have had in your life recently was an abusive boyfriend, but that’s over.”

“I am gonna go talk to him. Maybe try to see where he wants this to go. Can we take Sophia to the zoo after? She always wanted to go, but Darren would-” I cut myself off, not wanting to give away too much of what happened to me.

“Of course we can go to the zoo.” Opie stands up, and holds his hand out to me. He pulls me up off the couch and into a hug. “I will go let Sophia know.”

He walked off toward Sophia’s room, and I walked into his. I grabbed some clean clothes and shoes, making sure I was going to stay cool enough, but also grabbing a flannel in case I

“Hey. Ready?” Opie asked, popping his head into the room.

“Yeah. You know since she’s mad at me, you’re gonna have to hold her hand.”

“I got two for a reason, babe, one for my girl, and one for my little princess.”

“I don’t want to know which one I am.” I say as I put the thermal water bottles we stash in the fridge, for things like this, in my bag.

“Let’s go.”

I walk into Jax’s house, he should really lock his front door. Before I can call out to him, I hear something coming from Abel’s room. I walk down the hallway, and I see them. Jax and Tara, cuddling Abel, looking smitten with each other. I keep myself hidden, observing the two for a minute longer, before making my way out. I knew Tara would always come first, he has never given me any reason to believe that wasn’t the truth. I guess he isn’t ready to be in my life or Sophia’s. How could he jump so quickly into whatever it is he has going with Tara when he decided to kiss me?

“How did it go?” Opie asked when I shut the door

“Good, it went good, great, fine, let's go to the zoo now.”

We pull into the zoo parking lot, pay the admission fee, and get wristbands. Before I can say anything, Opie is helping Sophia put hers on, and he helps me with mine too. We walk through all the exhibits.

“Mommy.” I hear Sophia saying. I am trying to give her the benefit of the doubt, but I know she is still mad at me. “I’m sorry mommy. I was just sad because you were being mean. I’m not mad at you.”

I get down to her level. “If you’re not mad, let me see you smile!” She smiled up at me, I could see her tooth coming in, her first adult tooth. “What did you want to show me?” She pulls me over to where the sharks are and points at a striped one.

“Look mommy, it has stripes like my stuffed zebra used too!” She says excitedly, clutching onto my hand. I smiled down at her, remembering what happened to her zebra.

Opie comes up behind me, putting his hands on my waist. “I was wondering where you two got off too.”

I turn to face him, allowing Sophia to go look at something else since we are in an enclosed space, and I just can’t hold back the tears anymore.

“What’s wrong baby? Did I scare you? Hurt you? I’m sorry, don’t cry.” He pulls me into his chest, one hand on the back of my head, the other, rubbing circles into my back.

“No, Ope, it wasn’t you. It was that stupid zebra shark. Sophia used to have this stuffed zebra that Hank got her, and she loved it. One day, I came home from work, and Darren had trashed her room, she asked him for some food so he locked her in the bathroom, and destroyed everything she owned. Hank, her stuffed zebra, died that day. I couldn’t bear to tell her, so I said he went on vacation.” I tell him.

Opie just looks down at me. “We are gonna stop at the gift shop on the way out. I will fix this I promise.”

“Opie, it’s not your mess to fix.” I say, looking up at him with my arms wrapped around him.

“I know I might not be her dad, but I want to try, Ari. I don’t know if I deserve this, but please, let me TRY to be a better dad.” Opie pleads.

“You didn’t deserve what happened to you, Opie, so, what’s it gonna hurt?”

We finish our trip around the zoo and Sophia is super tired. We had dinner, drank almost all the water I packed, and saw all the zoo animals, except the birds, Opie had to carry her when we passed a peacock. She even learned how to say the word giraffe. She was laying sleepily on Opies shoulder as he was carrying her toward the gift shop.

“One stuffed zebra, please.” He says to the person working behind the counter. They hand him the zebra and we walk toward the car.

“Here you go, Soph.” He says, handing her the zebra once she’s all buckled in.

“Hank!” She exclaimed excitedly. “I thought you were gone forever! I knew you’d come back. You were always there for me!” Sophia squeals, tiredness lacing her voice.

“Alright, she’s asleep.” Opie states, joining me on the couch.

“I can’t remember the last time I saw her that happy, Opie. I don’t know why I never got another stuffed zebra, I guess I just couldn’t handle what was associated with it.”

Opie sighed, running his hands through his hair and looking at me. “Why did she name him Hank?”

“When she was little we had this neighbor, Hank, and he stepped in and treated her like his own, whenever I needed a babysitter, or anything. He was there, he never got upset with her, he treated her like his granddaughter, and spoiled the hell out of her. Once he even said he was glad we lived so close. His grandkids lived 7 hours away, so he was glad to have someone to love. He was the grandpa I couldn’t give her. When she was 2, he got sick. By the time she turned 3, she called everyone Hank, that was the only other name she knew. He passed away around her 4th birthday, and she couldn’t understand where he went so she named the zebra Hank.” I explained to him. “The last time she saw him, I let him tuck her in, and read to her. He passed away that night in his sleep. When I went to check on him, I found the zebra, he got it for her, I never told her that.”

“So does she think that Hank is on vacation too?”

“Yes, she thinks he went to see his grandkids and his Hellen. The way that he used to talk about his wife, I hope is the way someone talks about her someday. He never had anything bad to say. She passed a few months before we moved to the neighborhood. Sophia said hi to him once, in the grocery store, it’s how we met him. It was beautiful to see the effect that she had on people, Opie. She’s gonna change lives someday.”

“She already has.” Opie responded, a silly smile on his face. I smiled back at him.

SMUT BELOW! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!

He leaned down, capturing my lips in his. It was rough but warm. I was surprised, but I kissed him back. He pulled away and got up from the couch, offering me his hand. I took it, and as soon as I was on my feet, he picked me up. I wrapped my legs around his waist as he left kisses down my neck and walked back to the bedroom. He shut the door with his foot as he, not so gently, bit down on my collarbone. I let out a moan at the action.

“Opie, should we be doing this?” I ask, running my fingers through his hair.

“I want this, Ari. I’ve always wanted this. Do you want this? We can stop if you aren’t comfortable.” Opie replies, smoothing my hair back.

“I want this too. I want you, Opie.” I reply, pulling him back in for another kiss, pushing his kutte off of his shoulders.

“Good.” Opie replies gruffly, tossing me on the bed, putting his kutte on the dresser, and following behind.

“I think we are wearing too many clothes.” I reply smiling up at him and pushing his shirt up and over his head.

“I can’t agree more.” He winks, biting at my collarbone working his hands under my shirt.

He pulls away long enough to lift my shirt over my head, followed by my shorts, and tosses them off the side of the bed.

“Why am I the only one in their underwear?” I ask him, smiling before I kiss him again.

“Let me rectify that.” Opie grins, standing up and pulling off his jeans, before resuming his place between my thighs.

He kisses down my body, starting with my lips, my jaw, my neck, down the valley between my breasts, down to my belly button, all the way to my thighs. He stops and looks up at me from between them with a shiteating grin. “Are you sure you want this?”

I push his head down hoping he gets the hint. He grins, kissing my hip bones before using his teeth to pull my panties down my legs. I gasp when the cold air hits my sopping center.

“Wow, you really are ready, aren’t you babe?” Opie winks up at at me.

“Shut up.” I murmur, closing my legs in embarrassment.

He grabs my knee and pulls them apart. “I didn’t say I didn’t like it, babe.”

“God.” He looks up at me from his spot.

“I haven’t even started yet babe.” He winks at me before leaving kisses around where I want him the most, but never where I need him.

“Stoooooooop. Stop teasing me, Opie.” I say before letting out a small moan, when he blows on my core, and bite my lower lip.

“That just makes it more fun.” Opie says, smirking before leaning in and licking a stripe through my folds.

I gasped at the action. “You like that babe?” I nodded, and he smiles before resuming his actions, focusing on my clit.

I try to focus on the feelings Opie is giving me but I can’t concentrate on him, Opie stops.

“What’s my name?” He asked while barely brushing my clit.

“O-oh god.” I fake moaning.

He chuckled, “close but not quite, let’s try this again. What. Is. My. Name?” He punctuated every word with a flat tongued lick from the bottom to the top before sucking my clit.

“Opie! I’m cumming!” I fake, wanting it to be over, screaming as real as I can manage, pulling his face closer to me, while it feels like he buries his face deeper into my core.

“Good babe. Now are you sure you’re ready? Because we can stop now and I won’t be upset with you.” He asked again, taking off his briefs, opening and rolling on the condom.

“I’m ready Opie. I want this.” He nods, looking at me, practically looking into my soul.

He didn’t move, so I rolled over on top of him and kissed him. I pulled away and straddled his hips. I scooted down lower, put my hands on his shoulders, lifted up my hips, and lowered myself down onto him. I gasped as I felt him stretch me in all of the right places, almost feeling overwhelmed with how full I feel.

“Oh, god.” I moan, once he is fully sheathed inside of me.

“You’re so tight.” Opie groans, moving his hips a bit, trying to let me get adjusted.

“Don’t move yet.” I gasp, leaning down to grab onto his shoulders, digging my nails in slightly.

“Okay, baby.” Opie replies, rubbing soothing circles on my hips.

We stayed like this for a few minutes before I was ready. “You can move now, Opie.”

“Are you sure, I don’t want to hurt you.”

I roll over onto my back, pulling him on top of me. “Look at me, Ope.” He looks at me. “I am ready, I want this, it’s okay. You can move Opie.”

He begins to move, pulling out slowly, and then pushing all the way back in at the same slow, deep pace.

“Opie.” I gasp out. We continue with the slow pace a little while longer. “Faster, harder!” I pant in his ear, pushing up my hips, trying to get a better angle on my clit.

“I can’t. I’ll hurt you.” Opie says

“No, Ope, you won’t.”

He shakes his head and keeps going slowly. I wait for him to push all the way back in and bite down on the spot where his neck meets his chest. He gives one hard thrust and I pull away, moaning in satisfaction.

“Do that again, and I might not be able to control myself, sweetheart.” He says, looking at my face, trying to figure out if I liked it, or if I’m in pain.

“I want you to do it again Opie. Don’t make me give the guys a reason to tease you tomorrow.” I tease before being cut off by a moan leaving my mouth as Opie thrusts hard and deep before pulling out and setting a brutal pace.

“Oh, god! Just like that!” I moan.

“You dirty girl! You like this don’t you?” He says in my ear as I let out a moan as he thrusts. “Answer me, or I’ll stop.” He says slowing down.

“Yes!” I scream out, wanting him to go faster.

“You like being fucked?” Opie asks, reaching his hand down to rub my clit.

“Opie!” I gasp out, as he starts grunting in my ear. I know he is getting close, I’m still not near the ledge, I grind against him trying to get more friction, not really as into it as I thought.

“This feels so good babe. I love the feeling of your tight little pussy contracting around my cock as you cum.”

I let out a long scream, leaving scratches down his back as I act like I came. Not to soon after, he grunts and quickens his pace, before stalling and thrusting deep, cumming. Both of us letting out moans, mine fake.

“Dayyyyum babe.” He says pulling out of me, and taking the condom off. He leaves the room, returning with a wet washcloth, and helping me clean up. He looks down at me, trying to catch my breath. “You gonna be okay?” He asks, rubbing circles on my tummy. I nod my head before he hands me his shirt and my panties, so I can sleep in something as he pulls on his briefs.

“Opie, I need some help, I can’t lift my hips high enough to get my panties up.” He smirks at me and winks, pulling my panties up my legs, putting his hands under my hips, and rests my thighs on his knees, pulling my panties up where they go. I lay there, long after he’s asleep, thinking about what just happened. I’m not sure why I decided to sleep with him, I knew I wasn’t ready, but I didn’t want to upset him. I don’t know why I can’t focus when it comes to sex, I haven’t been able to cum, even on my own, and I don’t know how to make it better. I sigh, rolling over and cuddling into him, trying to fall asleep.

Jeno - Fluff A-Z

A - Atractive (what they find atractive)

Your shyness. He loves that you don't show your out-going side to just anyone but save it for the people you care about, like Jeno. This is something that makes him feel really special.

B - Baby (do they want a family?)

In the future probably, but definitly not anytime soon.

C - Cuddle (how they cuddle)

He likes to have your head on his chest while you both fall asleep. He also likes spooning, he prefers to be the big spoon.

D - Dates (what dates with them are like)

I think dates with Jeno would be very chill. You'd just hang around the dorms and play some video games.

E - Everything (you are my...)

Future, Jeno would probably be deeply in love with you and he wouldn't see a future without you in it.

F - Feelings (when they realise that they love you)

When you first went over to the dorms. You got along with everyone very well. That's when Jeno realises he loves you.

G - Gentle (are they gentle?)

He is super gentle. He'd never want to hurt you and in his eyes you're a little baby so he would be very careful with you.

H - Hand/hold (how do they hold you? Do they hold hands?)

He likes holding hands but I don't think he would be that into PDA. He doesn't want to get teased by the other members so when they're around he'd keep it on the low. When you're alone though he'd be all over you.

I - Impression (first impression)

When he first saw you in school he thought you were the prettiest girl he had ever seen. When he finally gathered up the courage to talk to you he was completely enchanted by you.

J - Joker (do they pull pranks?)

I don't really see Jeno as a big prankster. If you pranked him he'd get his revenge but that's it.

K - Kisses (how they kiss)

When you first started dating he'd want to kiss you all the time, but he was to shy. Now that you're comfortable around each other he's smothering you in kisses the whole time.

L - Love (who said I love you first?)

Jeno is pretty shy, so I think you'd be the first to say it. After you said it though he would have no problem saying it back. He just didn't want to say it first in case you didn't feel the same.

M - Memory (favourite memory together)

Your first date. He was so relieved when you told him you liked him too and would go on a date with him. That day would just be one of the most magical ones in his eyes.

N - Nickel (do they spoil?)

I mean he's only 18, so I don't think he'd buy you stuff all the time. Sure he'd buy you something special for your birthday, but I don't think you can expect hun to do that like every week.

O - Orange (what colour reminds them of you)

Yellow. It's a nice and bright colour and that's why it reminds him of you. You're always happy and cheerful.

P - Petnames (what petnames they use)

I think the basic stuff like babe, baby, princess etc.

Q - Questions (what are the questions they're always asking?)

Do you have fun with him? Everyone is always joking about him not being funny and stuff and I think that actually does get to him sometimes. So I think he'd wonder sometimes wether you're having with him or not.

R - Rainy day (what they like to do on a rainy day)

He'd like to stay inside with you and watch movies and play video games.

S - Sad (how they Cheer themselves/others up)

When he is sad I don't think he'd tell you because he doesn't want you to worry, but I think it'd be pretty easy to catch onto it when he's sad. When you're sad though expect him to cuddle you the whole day.

T - Talking (what they love to talk about)

Dancing/practice, I think he'd really like to tell you about new choreographies he's learning. He'd probably try to convince you to let him teach you one of NCT's choreographies.

U - Unencumbered (what helps them relax)

I think Jeno would be the most peaceful when the two of you are hanging out but don't really talk.

V - Vaunt (what do they like to show off? What are they proud of?)

To you he'd like to show off his dancing skills. I don't think he'd really show you off to others, he doesn't want either of you to feel embarrassed or uncomfortable.

W - Why (reasons why they love you)

He loves you because of you kindness, you're always nice to others even if you've had a crappy day. He also loves you because you support him so much. When the two of you first started dating he expected his shedule to become a problem but you were really chill about it.

X - Xylophone (what's their song?)

Just The Way You Are - Bruno Mars. This song reminds him of you because he always wants you to know how beautiful you are to him.

Y - You (what you are to them)

You're the cookie to my milk. This is just something very innocent just like your relationship.

Z - Zebra (what pet they want to have)

I think Jeno would want a dog. I mean who doesn't like dogs, they're just super fluffy and they always want to cuddle.

I hope you enjoyed this I wanted to try this out so if you want me to do more of these let me know.

A Familiar Face

Klaroline Infinity Day 7 - Ideal Endgame Scene

A year, a century, what was time to an immortal? For Caroline, forty years meant love, laughter, fear and grief. With her daughters grown, she's ready to stop playing it safe and to go looking for the adventures the world once promised.

She had forgotten how lonely it could be, the fate of a vampire. At home, the girls knew exactly who she was and what that meant - but they couldn't possibly understand the weight of outliving such a phase in her life. Humans went through a handful of these complete shifts, but Caroline was realizing she would have to do this over and over again until she met the wrong end of a pointy stick.

Having buried both Stefan and Alaric years before and signed the Bennett School over to Josie and Lizzie, Caroline decided to take a well deserved retirement trip around the world for her sixty-fifth birthday. She had left a week earlier, kissing the girls at the airport. "I love you, call me every day."

"Every week," Josie promised sternly, onlookers probably confused to see a young woman asking her mother to call every day.

Because Caroline didn't look her nearly sixty-five years; she didn't look a day over seventeen, and she never would. It was a realization that came in waves, one that hit her again as she flew over the Atlantic to South Africa. The list of postcards and souvenirs she had planned to buy was much too short for someone of her age, but everyone had died or moved on with their very human lives.

The girls, obviously, would receive the brunt of her gifts. Matt never cared for her messages, and Elena didn't even know who Caroline was anymore. Some of the school's students kept in touch, but it wasn't the same.

She was always missing the people she loved, and she wanted someone to miss her.

Shaking her head, Caroline glanced around the plane to distract herself from the morose thoughts. Brass curls caught her attention, but she turned to her book before she could let herself wonder why.

His lips were so pink.

Caroline wasn't drunk enough to get lost in such an observation; still, she couldn't help staring at the guy trying to talk her up. It was probably her fault for grabbing a drink in the hotel bar, where most people were just trying to get laid. She wasn't looking for companionship, though, merely some human interaction to mask her loneliness.

The guy was cute enough, just not to Caroline's taste. But those lips. She found herself frowning as she tried to figure out why she felt so strangely attracted to a man's mouth and nothing else.

"Anyway," he said in his Australian accent, shoving his hands into his pockets as he gauged her reaction. "Want to get out of here?"

That finally jerked Caroline back to awareness, unable to hide the mean laugh that bubbled out of her mouth. "No," she answered more politely. "I'm good here, thanks."

Grumbling, he left her alone at the bar once more.

Caroline swiped her tongue across her lips, wondering just what she wanted to get from this trip. While she would have never given the slick smooth-talker a chance, was she even looking for that kind of adventure? So focused on the school and Josie's kids, she'd hardly given consideration to the fact she had a long eternity to go. Picking up a guy in the hotel bar didn't scream 'spend the rest of your life with me,' but it didn't have to be forever.

It had been so long since she had even thought about dating. Stefan wanted her to be happy, and Lizzie had tried to get her on a dating website. Though Caroline had automatically disregarded the idea, she knew better than to shut off the possibility of meeting someone new.

Taking another shot of tequila, she only had one thing to say about that. "Not tonight," she muttered to herself.

The plan for South Africa was a conservation excursion with local scientists, and Caroline was armed with her fancy camera to take excellent photos of the animals for her grandkids. Josie was the green thumb of the family, so she also wanted to get plenty of information on the vegetation and how it was cultivated - education had become a vital part of the Forbes-Saltzman vacation experience.

Her excursion guide had an unfortunately dull voice, but Caroline was too enthralled with the scenery to care much. She snapped photos left and right the whole time; it wasn't until the guide accidentally crossed her camera's path that she paused to check the display. Whatever the good doctor had been laughing at, Caroline didn't know, but she grinned so widely that dimples cut deep into her cheeks.

For some reason, Caroline was struck by the sight.

The moment passed quickly as a dazzle of zebras galloped past their Humvee. Gasping at their powerful leaps, she brought her camera up to document the moment.

"Would you like to come to a party with us?" The older couple had been kind to her throughout the week's excursions, their cultured personalities something like a fascination for Caroline to soak up. They'd taken a shine to her genuine enthusiasm and witty observations, and she loved how much they made her laugh. This was that she had pictured on a world tour, picking up fashionable friends and making pleasant relationships with interesting people. The wife, Sita, watched her excitedly as she considered the invitation.

Rolling her eyes, Caroline smiled. "What party?"

"I have a business associate in the area," Abram explained, his hand affectionately toying with Sita's ponytail. "He's hosting a small fundraiser for his daughter's school. I assure you, Sita already wrote a check three times larger than necessary, so you wouldn't have to give a thing."

"Don't mind him, he's just angry my stock portfolio had better returns this month," Sita teased. "But really, you must come."

Caroline fidgeted under their earnest gazes. "I don't want to be a burden," she admitted, "but I organized a number of school fundraisers in my day and would love to donate."

Laughing, Sita nudged her playfully. "In your day… You're making us old folk feel even older, Caroline."

As Caroline's smile fell at the unsubtle dig at her apparent age, she knew Sita didn't mean anything by it. She had no idea that Caroline was much older than she looked. It was harmless fun.

Harmless, though she found herself brushing away a tear when Abram distracted his wife with another information packet he seemed to enjoy collecting. Friends were important, even if they would never know the real her; Caroline would just have to enjoy the time she had with them.

She hoped one day she could hope for something more lasting.

The gorgeous villa was larger than Caroline had expected, and she just stared in awe as their cab drew closer. "What kind of business is this associate in? Because they must be loaded to afford all this."

Abram chuckled. "He's a bit of a mystery, I'm afraid, though I know he has diverse interests all over the world," he explained, opening the door to let himself out and the women followed suit. "South Africa was a new venture for him, but he seems to have set himself up nicely in the last year or so."

"And he's handsome," Sita added with a suggestive arch of her eyebrows. "A catch for any single girl."

"Oh, I'm m-" Once again, Caroline felt the aching realization that she was a single girl. And despite her promise to remain open to opportunities, she wasn't prepared for one to come so soon. "I'm not really in the market right now."

"Talking real estate already, Abram?" A new and maddeningly familiar voice joined them in the driveway, and Caroline turned to find Klaus Mikaelson striding toward them. "And I see you've brought a guest."

Smirking, Klaus slid to a stop before her and reached for her hand. He brought it to his lips with that infuriating glint of triumph in his eyes. "Hello, Caroline."

Struck silent by the shock of his presence, Caroline was jostled by Sita's enthusiastic greeting. "What a small world, Klaus. How do you know our Caroline?"

With a too charming smile, Klaus held Sita and Abram's shoulders still so he could maintain intense eye contact. "Go inside and join the party, Caroline will find you if she pleases," he compelled.

As the couple obediently entered the villa, Caroline crossed her arms in irritation and very nearly stomped her foot. "What the hell, Klaus?"

"Yes, sweetheart, it's lovely to see you, too." His smirk melted into that bashful smile she hadn't seen in decades. "Are you enjoying your visit?"

Something in his tone hit Caroline's ear oddly; he seemed too prepared to see her. Lizzie was the one to suggest South Africa, and Josie organized the excursion as an early birthday present, but surely… "What," she hissed, "did you do?"

"Come in," he said, unconcerned. "I'll pour some champagne, only the best for your birthday party."

"Klaus-"

"Please." Klaus held out his arm, eyes much too innocent for the man himself. "I just...missed you. I thought it was about time to meet again."

Sighing, Caroline could actually feel her resolve crumbling. She reluctantly placed her hand in the crook of his arm, allowing him to lead in her inside. Damn, if his soft spot for birthdays wasn't adorable.

"So, did you trick my daughters into getting me here, or were they complicit in this little setup?"

Klaus just shrugged as they walked toward the refreshment bar, couples dancing and chatting in the next room. "Josie and Lizzie were none the wiser, they just wanted to give their mother a good birthday present," he promised. "Hope, however, was indeed complicit in sharing the details of said gift and your itinerary."

"I knew I shouldn't have hired a Mikaelson, even if she is the only normal one in the bunch," Caroline muttered.

Staffing a magic school required delicate inquiries, and it was her own fault that she reached out to Klaus for witchy contacts she and Alaric didn't have when they first reopened the Armory as the Bennett School. Though Hope was never a student, she joined their teaching roster as soon as she could. Caroline tried not to bond with her, really, but it was just impossible.

The only condition was that she couldn't bring her father's grudges to the school; children were not collateral damage. For twenty years, Hope had easily complied.

It seemed that Caroline's luck had run out.

Klaus popped a fancy bottle of champagne, smiling when she automatically reached for her glass. "Hope is exceptional," he corrected, "but I digress. Presumptuous as I know you're dying to call me, I didn't want you to spend the day alone."

"It's not my birthday," she burst out, incredulous that this was really happening. Her shout drew a few glances, so she sipped mulishly at her drink. "Not until Saturday."

Chuckling to himself, Klaus looked down to his toes. "I couldn't wait," he admitted.

Her challenging glare lessened as Caroline noted the familiar curls of his brass hair, the pink of his lips, and the deep dimples daring her to be angry. "You are presumptuous," she pointed out, though she also grabbed his hand and pulled him toward the dancers. "What happened to waiting, 'however long it takes?'"

They were swept up into the grand waltz playing, and Caroline felt lighter than air. She wasn't sure if it was the bubbles or the hybrid, but she didn't hate it.

Even better, the warm presence of his hand reminded her that she didn't have to feel it alone. This friend, or whatever he was, this one she could keep.

Forever.

Dr Seuss/Re-imagine

About Dr Seuss:

Background data, education and employment:

Dr Seuss was born March 2nd, 1904, in Springfield, Massachusetts, United States and died at the age of 87 September 24th, 1991 in La Jolla, California, United States. At age 18, Geisel left home to go to Dartmouth College, where he became the editor in chief of a magazine called “Its humour, Jack-O-Lantern”. He was kicked off the magazine staff due to being caught drinking in his dorm. After graduating from Dartmouth College, Geisel attended Oxford University in England, with hopes to become a professor. In 1927, he dropped out of Oxford without earning a degree to properly pursue his career in illustration and cartoons. During this year he married his wife who he met at University and moved back to the United States. In addition to producing books he also produced and designed animated cartoons for television, most of which were based on his books, he even won Emmy Awards for some of his cartoons. In 1942, for the U.S. war effort, he worked drawing posters for the Treasury Department and the War Production Board. Later in 1943, he joined the Army where he was commander of the first motion picture unit of the United States army air force, where he wrote films such as “Your Job In Germany”, “Design For Death” and the “Private Snafu” series.

His books:

His first children's book was published in 1937 titled “and to think that I saw it on mulberry street”, however, during World War II he stopped his work on children's books for a short time and focused more on working in an animation department for the US Army where many short films were produced, amongst these films the short film “design for death” was created which won the academy award for best documentary feature in 1947. After the war, he worked on children's books again, including the children's books from before and after the second world war, Many of His books express his views on a diverse amount of political and social issues, for example, The Lorax 1971 is about environmentalism where the message is to be more green and environmentally friendly, The Sneetches in 1961 is about racial equality where people of all races should be treated faily and equally, The Butter Battle Book in 1984 is about the nuclear arms race between the USA and the USSR, Yertle the Turtle in 1958 is about Adolf Hitler and anti-authoritarianism, How the Grinch Stole Christmas in 1957 is about how materialism and consumerism take over during the season of the Christmas, and finally Horton Hears a Who in 1954 is about anti-isolationism and internationalism.

What inspired him creatively?

Dr Seuss was on a ship travelling from Europe back to the United States, whilst on the ship, he was listening to the engine of the sound going thump thump thump, the rhythm inspired him to write his first children's book.

Seuss spent a few years in Paris producing surrealist paintings with Salvador Dalí and Paul Klee, a lot of his illustrations were designed to be surreal which further pushed his creative mind to the work of children's’ books.

Whenever Dr Suess walked out the door of his home at 74 Fairfield St streetcar bells rattled, the engines of locally built automobiles hummed and wooden barrels hitting the cobblestone pathways. These were all inspirations of interesting sounds which could be used during illustrations.

Dr Seuss also explored many natural spaces of local forests and parks, his creative mind gathered and combined the fascinations from everyday life. He used to visit many zoos with his mother when growing up so he would draw animals with creative and unique names to place upon his bedroom walls.

What is Dr. Seuss most recognised for?

Seuss was remembered for a lot of reasons but mainly his rhyming was very infectious and unique to his own writing style, also his stories were very creative and short which would appeal to a younger audience, his use of language was also interesting yet basic this would also appeal to a younger demographic due to the stories being easier to understand. HIs illustrations were very cartoony and unrealistic, the characters tended to have big eyes and look very friendly.

What work brought him the most success?

The three books which brought him the most success include;

3. One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish in (1960), This rhyming book is considered a Dr Seuss classic. It sold 6,164,454 copies.

2. The Cat in the Hat in (1957), This book is probably the most known Dr Seuss book due to its creative story but also the 2003 movie starring Mike Myers. It sold 7,220,982 copies.

1. Green Eggs and Ham in (1960), This book is known as the most classic Dr Seuss book of all time, this book probably did so well due to it appealing to a wide target audience of all ages and both genders with catchy lines that are repeated throughout the book. It sold 8,143,088 copies.

Dr Seusses work in other mediums;

His work first started in books using Dr Seuss’s words with illustrations on the cover of the book, this then developed into books but with illustrations on most/every page, this way was more successful since it looked more visually appealing.

Another way Dr Seuss’s books were portrayed was through simple 2D drawn animation with some drastic movement, this method was introduced during the mid 20th century.

Dr Seusse’s stories were also told by live-action film for example in 2000 the Grinch who stole Christmas and in 2003 the cat in the hat.

The final and most recent form of how his stories were portrayed was by 3D animation or “CGI”, this method was first used for a Dr Seuss story was in 2008 with the movie Horton Hears a Who by the company Fox then in 2012 with the movie the Lorax by the company illumination, even in late 2018 a new Dr Seuss movie called the Grinch is going to be produced.

Research – Context 2

Through reading and listening to multiple Dr Seuss books his style comes across as very creative with a set colour theme for each story, these stories tend to be very short which would appeal to a younger audience since they have a shorter attention span.

The three pieces of work by Dr Seuss which appeal to me;

1. If I Ran The Zoo

2. The Lorax

3. The Eye Book

I chose The Lorax since the characters were interesting but also I like the message of being environmentally friendly.

I chose The Eye Book since it was simple to follow and had some fluent rhyming, I also like the use of juxtaposition throughout the book since this made the book more interesting and explores the many different objects eyes can see.

Out of his three pieces of work I have chosen, the one of which I like the most would be If I Ran The Zoo.

What is the narrative/topics of the book?

The purpose of this book is to entertain, it highlights the fact that nothing or no one is the same by showing how certain individuals would run the zoo differently, I like this book more than the others since I like how creative the names of the creatures are but also all the interesting places the main character travels to and how each creature has something unique about them, for example, the character goes to many different climates to find certain creatures this could also be Dr Seuss’s way of telling the reader to be determined to try and accomplish an aim or objective. Also since the child is telling the story this would relate to the target audience who are most likely reading his books, in addition, I like the amount of rhyming in this book, in my opinion, some books contain too much rhyming or drag on something for too long but I find this book to be fast-paced and it remains interesting throughout the whole journey of how Gerald McGrew would run the zoo. Dr Seuss also sticks to a simple colour palette of white, black, red, blue and yellow throughout the whole book with no look of green or purple, also the first thing the main character does when he imagines himself being the zookeeper is releasing all of the animals and by the end of the book all of the animals are free roaming around the zoo whilst smiling, this could show that Dr Seuss is against animal cruelty and feels sympathetic towards animals trapped in zoos. The characters look creatively drawn with very exaggerated features for example when describing the Deers he draws the horns in an unusual way.

Finally, this book is a very personal story to Dr Seuss since when he was younger he used to visit zoos often and think of creative new creatures which would be interesting to look at.

The main characters/character:

The main characters consist of Gerald McGrew who is telling the story and the Zookeeper who listens, Gerald is represented as a creative child who is inquisitive and imaginative, Gerald’s appearance is made up of a red tie with a quite posh outfit suggesting he comes from an upper-class background, however, throughout the book he changes his appearance into the zookeepers clothes which could show that children can be just as capable as adults the quote “Adults are just obsolete children” from Dr Seuss supports that this was his idea coming through the work of the book. The zookeeper isn’t really given much of a personality but is dressed up as a typical zookeeper with a red hat, red tie, black blazer and striped trousers, the character also has a moustache and is chubby with a smug look on his face throughout the story.

In particular, I like the verse

“ I’ll bag a big bug

Who is very surprising,

A feller who has

A propeller for rising

And zooming around

Making cross-country hops,

From Texas to Boston

With only two stops.

Now that sort of thing

For a bug is just tops!”

I like this verse since it clearly describes the feature of the character and how powerful it is, I also find that this would be fun to animate. On the next page, another verse is interesting which could be fun to animate, the verse goes

“And when I’ve Caught him,

Then the next thing you’ll know

I’ll go and I’ll capture

A wild Tick-Tack-Toe,

With X’s that win

And with Zeros that lose.

He’ll look mighty good

In this Zoo of McGrew’s.”

I like this verse since I could animate the zeros always losing and create my own version of how the creature looks, I could also animate the creature from the previous verse being captured maybe have them hop into a net.
