Dummfucks of the Grid
Tumblr media
word count: 760
Pairing: Lando Norris x reader
Summary: After a disappointing P6 finish at the São Paulo Grand Prix, Lando Norris finds comfort in his girlfriend Y/n's fierce support as she playfully criticizes the other drivers and team principals
______________________________________________________________
As the door to Lando’s driver’s room closed, the noise of the paddock celebrations faded into the background. Lando sat on the couch, his head in his hands, feeling the weight of finishing P6 after a race that had promised so much more. The disappointment was palpable, especially with Max winning again.
Y/n moved swiftly to sit beside him, wrapping her arm around his shoulders. “Hey, Lando, P6 isn’t the end of the world. You gave it your all out there.”
He sighed, his frustration evident. “Yeah, but I wanted to do better. With Max winning again, it feels like I keep falling short.”
“Falling short?” she echoed, shaking her head. “You didn’t just fall short; you navigated a field of absolute clowns out there! Let’s talk about it. You know I’m here for you.”
Lando raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “Oh? Care to elaborate?”
“Okay, first off, Max. He drives like he’s playing Mario Kart and thinks he can just take everyone out with a blue shell! I mean, does he not understand that sharing the track is part of the job? It’s like he thinks he’s invincible! It’s ridiculous!”
He chuckled, a small smile breaking through. “That’s a good way to put it.”
“And then there’s George Russell, who finished P4 today. Honestly, he acts like he’s the golden child of the grid. ‘Look at me, I’m so talented, watch me throw my weight around!’ It’s like he forgets he has to race, not just pose for the cameras. Every time he gets near you, it’s like he’s trying to play bumper cars!”
“True,” Lando said, laughing harder now. “I can feel the ego swelling every time I see him.”
“And don’t even get me started on Leclerc! He’s out there racing like he’s auditioning for the role of ‘Most Likely to Crash Into a Wall.’ It’s like he has a special talent for making the race more dramatic than it needs to be. How does he always manage to be on the brink of disaster and still finish? Is it a gift or a curse?”
Lando nodded, now thoroughly entertained. “He does have that knack for drama, doesn’t he?”
“Absolutely! And then we have Carlos Sainz. I mean, bless him, but he’s trying so hard to keep up with Leclerc that it’s like watching a puppy chase its tail. Poor guy looks so lost sometimes, you just want to give him a treat and a pat on the head! But he gets a pass because he’s your friend.”
“Right? Carlos is actually a good guy,” Lando said, shaking his head, amused.
“And then there’s the team principals!” Y/n continued, her passion bubbling over. “Christian Horner thinks he runs a royal court every time Max crosses the finish line. ‘Look at my king!’ as if it’s not a team effort. And Toto—he’s not innocent either. He struts around like he’s the head of a fashion show! Honestly, if I had a dime for every time I’ve seen him making dramatic hand gestures in the pits, I could fund a whole new racing team!”
“Okay, that one’s a good point!” Lando laughed, feeling the tension ease with every word.
“Seriously, I would fight every one of them for you if it came down to it. Size doesn’t matter when you’re this passionate!” she declared boldly. “I’d take on Max, George, and anyone else who thinks they can just push you around out there!”
“Y/n, you do realize you’re only 5’6, right?” Lando replied, grinning. “How are you going to take on all of them?”
“I may be small, but I’ve got a big heart and a bigger mouth!” she shot back, her eyes sparkling with defiance. “Just imagine me storming the paddock like, ‘Back off, or I’ll unleash my fury on you!’”
“Please don’t start any fights in the paddock,” he said, his tone light but earnest. “I love your spirit, but I’d rather not deal with the fallout. I need you here, not banned.”
“Why not? It would be entertaining!” she countered, smirking. “I’d tell them all off! ‘Listen up, dummfucks of the grid, stop getting in my boyfriend’s way!’”
Lando laughed, the sound genuine now. “You really are something else. Knowing you’ve got my back means everything.”
“Absolutely! If they try to block you from winning, I won’t hesitate to step in,” she said, snuggling closer.
“Just promise me you won’t do anything too crazy,” he replied, a grin spreading across his face. “I love your fierceness and protective side, but let’s keep you in the paddock, okay?”

DAY 2: MACE
The mace is, of course, important. But Clown wants the mace because he wants to prove that he can be peaceful – just doesn't want to. And, also:
– You have to participate, – says Squiddo to him, and something in their intonation makes Clown feel like she's not joking. So he joins.
And he actually enjoys it – after all, he has his days off from being a mass murderer. He likes to do funny, cool, and cute stuff. Yeah, it's a little strange to be like that to someone besides his close friends, but he manages easily. It became a good change of the rhythm, even if it was just for a few weeks.
And, dismissing how obvious it is that he is pretending, he is the perfect candidate for the mace: a strong fighter who has redeemed himself passed, ready to protect the weak. True warrior of the peace. A symbol of hope. Is it that Minute wanted to be the last time?
When the Mace Keepers invite him on a walk in the middle of the night, they lead him up the tall mountain, a peak towering over the world. The air here is thin and almost sweet, the colors are hidden by undertones, and dense clouds hide the ground below. It's truly peaceful up here. Maybe some other version of him could have gotten used to it.
– You won, – they say, looking at him with pride. – you are truly worthy.
For some reason, all of them are smiling. Their hands are all empty. They are nodding.
– But none of us have the mace, – 4CVIT remarks cryptically, – not Squiddo, not MrCube and not even me. Its Master Oogway who got to actually take care of it.
They step aside, showing a small hillock located under a spreading willow tree. The grass is silvered under the moonlight. Firmament is strewn with myriads of stars.
At one point, there's no one there. He blinks, and there appears a figure. They are completely hidden in a dark robe, and their fabrics shine down like a waterfall. The Mace Keepers applaud them, as if approving the spectacular appearance.  
The figure removes a long purple hood. Branzy looks different – stricter, taller, and with the white hair pulled back in a braid – but it's still him. He's smiling. 
– Hello, gorgerous, – Clown says, – an honor to see you again.
Branzy smiles and blushes and laughs, but he needs to keep the composure, so he does.
– You had worked really hard to get here, – Branzy says, and he can't stop smiling and he looks Clown straight in the eyes, – reminding us all that yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mistery, but today is a gift. And whats why it's called a present.
He solemnly presents him with the mace – takes it out of a sealed briefcase, from a purple silk pillow, and carefully holds it, not like a warrior but like an archivist, and he hands it to Clown.
And he accepts it, feeling the weight of responsibility and echoes of the warmth of other people's hands, and Keepers congratulate him and applaud, and everything is finally exactly as it should be – and then he changes his grip, wind charges into the sky, and with the eerie rumble strikes 4C, bringing him instant death.
It's too easy to kill them, weak and defensless, who had just given him the strongest power in the world. Squiddo and MrCube live only a little longer, but they too get decimated into dust. Mace shines, overflowing with power. Clown turns around and looks up at Branzy. and lowers the mace.
– I missed you, – he says warmly and takes out the mask. They look into each other's eyes for a moment. And then they hug.
– I missed you too, Clown, – Branzy agrees, caressing his hair, – you are the ray of sunshine in my life.
– Aw-w, dear, – Clown gives in and kisses him in the cheek, and Branzy, finally taking down all the officiousness and seriousness, happily giggles, – you never fail to make me smile.
They have less than an hour. He is happy nonetheless.

Buggy the Clown - Buggy the sugar baby.
Tumblr media
Warning : none
Genre : fluff
Synopsis : "so we all know that buggy is a material boy- can i request sugar daddy reader x buggy?" - anon
Reader : male (you/yours)
A/N : Part TWO
Tumblr media
“Buy my time.” He said with a fake smile, slightly annoyed. Hoping that would make you leave.
You stared at him and shrugged.
“You know what, fine.” Your head rested on your hand as you looked at him. “What do you say I pay you your bounty for starters. When it increases I'll follow, naturally.” You say smiling still.
He blinked at you. “When” not “if”. He noted how you knew it would increase. Good choice of words. Not thinking longer, he agreed. Easy money was always welcome after all.
But he didn't think it would last, believing he would bleed you dry out of your money and finally get rid of you. But each time his bounty grew, you paid what was due, not complaining one bit. Even when it reached 3,189,000,000 berries.
Oh, you were rich rich. And he didn't even know what to do with all this money you gave him. Was this heaven ?
Buggy never thought he would find himself in such a situation.
Him ? A… sugar baby ? At 39 ? He's laughing, can you hear him ?
And yet here he is. Gaining money easily just by spending time with you.
And not just money, you'd get him treasures and treasure maps, jewelry, clothes and take him to the finest restaurants. He likes certain things more than others but at the same time, he didn't mind.
You had earned it. He felt a bit of pity for you, spending this much on him. Out of all the pretty and young people you could've chosen you choose the thieveling old clown. Were you that weird and lonely ? Which one were you more, he wondered.
Buggy would be lying if he said he didn't grow attached to you in the long run. Weirdly enough, you were always there for him during the past few months. You and your unconventional ways of supporting him. And of course, your money was always welcome. Though he won't hide he liked what you could offer first, he really began to like you as well with time.
The first few times you flirted with him, he threatened you to raise his price but you just laughed. Clearly not afraid by his menaces. He never raised his prices, letting you flirt with him all you wanted.
He was glad you didn't see each other on the daily, or he knew, especially with his last bounty that you would be out of money for him in a few weeks. And you wouldn't see each other again.
Not that he would stop you from hanging out with him once you run out of money. But he can't let you know, he has apparences to keep.
Although he knows what kind of relationship you two are in, he refuses to acknowledge it.
It's mainly the names that make him cringe. “Sugar baby… Pft ! I'm a grown man ! Not a baby !” He says to himself, puffing his chest in annoyance. Though he wouldn't mind if you called him baby. Affectionately. But that again, he won't tell you about it.
At some point, it's clear he considers you like a trusted “friend” and is torn between stopping you from spending your money on him and letting you do it. He's generous at times after all, you can come see him without paying.
You have to explain to him that you don't mind but still he insists. You won't have to buy his time anymore but you still get him many gifts.
It's not because you have for title sugar daddy that he's going to call you daddy. He'd rather cut his own tongue without his chop chop abilities. This is too embarrassing.
You two didn't get intimate until after a long time. At first, he wanted to empty your pockets by doing the strict minimum ; a quick hang before sailing away. But instead he slowly got to know you and learned more about you. Then a wobbly trust creeped in, building itself with time as well. Then he saw you more as a friend than someone to steal from. And finally, some feelings bloomed very discreetly.
Even after all this time he doesn't know why you're spending so much on him. There's people who would've had sex with you way quicker than him. But that's not what you're looking for and he doesn't get it.
The rest of the crew had been suspicious of what was going on between you two for a time, especially after the meals increased in quality for “no reasons” -he could buy more food thanks to you- or walking around with new clothes, flashier than the last, or the closed chests stacked in his room -one swore they saw gold in it-. But they quickly dropped the investigation. The idea of Buggy being a sugar baby never crossed their mind. How could the great Buggy the Clown be a sugar baby ? If anything, he'd be a sugar daddy, right ?
If the words eventually pass around, he'll deny any feelings for you and say it's just to get them food on their plate. Because he is kind and generous. Though you know he actually likes you.
He keeps everything you've bought him. He used to keep them because they were pricey and shiny and flashy now it's because it also comes from you.
He tries to get you stuff from time to time. When he's feeling extra nice it'll be treasures he found from the maps you've offered him. He'll give you that because that's what he thinks everyone -should- want and it's his way of repaying you because he still, once again, doesn't understand why you accept to pay this much for him.
“It's because I love you, Buggy. And I know it makes you happy.” You explain, rubbing his arm gently.
He pouts and squints his eyes as he looks at you, ignoring his speeding heartbeat.
“Of course you do, who doesn't ?” He says with a nervous laugh, waving you off.
You smile, your thumb softly grazing his skin and he's battling every fiber of his being to not lean against your touch to keep his tough exterior.
“Why do you ask ?”
He grumbles something, not knowing what to say.
“You think I do this with other people ?” You ask and he glances at you. “Buy them nice things, spend time with them…” You grab his face. “Tell them I love them.” Your fingers stroking his cheeks. He swallows, looking at you intently.
“You're the only one, Buggy. I love you.” You say, kissing his forehead and he just stands there, not knowing how to act anymore.
You smile at him, your palms are warm against his skin and his heart is beating too fast for his liking but he lets you hold him like this, enjoying it more than he'd like to admit.
“Alright.” He says quietly, looking away and you grin, happy, before leaning in and capturing his lips in a sweet kiss. He feels a bit sad when you pull away, your warm hands leaving his cheeks.
“Alright.” You repeat. “Now we cleared this, what do you want to do ?”

Birthday Boy
Dad!Jake “Hangman” Seresin x female reader
Tumblr media
Summary: It’s Jake’s birthday and you have a very special gift for him.
Warnings: this is just a mega fluff monster (i think, anyway). Jake’s all happy being a dad and being in love with his lady and everything. Maybe cursing. Didn’t double check. Allusion to eventual smut that is not in this fic. Just to be safe:18+
Notes: can be read alone, but contributes to the Oh, Baby world as well. 
Words: 2422
Oh, Baby Masterlist
Masterlist
*turn on notifications for this blog or @seresinhangmanjake-library if you would like to keep up with my writing*
------
Thirty-four. The number was speckled throughout his house. It was strung together as part of a lengthy banner that was taped to his wall; scribbled in green icing across the center of the vanilla cake you’d baked him with an equal number of rainbow-colored candles sticking out the top; and in the form of two massive shiny, floating balloons in the corner of the living room—Rooster’s addition to the decor, supposedly meant to tease Jake but were obviously brought for your daughter, Eve’s, amusement. And the little girl loved them, immediately crawling across the carpet to stare up at the mirror-like mylar that reflected her fascinated face. 
Jake had joked two weeks prior that he was getting old, so you’d taken it upon yourself to plan a party that reminded him of his younger days…his very young days. You’d gone all out, including everything for a kiddie party but the clowns and ponies. 
Initially, you weren’t sure how he’d take the surprise—he could see the worry in your twisted features when you observed his wide eyes and gaping mouth—but Jake only grabbed you around the waist and kissed you until everyone grew bored of watching a couple so lost in themselves. No one had ever quite done anything like this for him before. He’d had birthday parties, sure, plenty as a child, but not a single one after his mid-twenties, and never thrown by a woman he loved.
You’d still kept it small. Inviting your shared friends, a few other pilot buddies, Penny and Mav and a couple of the Hard Deck bartenders—one of whom was the pretty blonde Rooster had yet to completely get over despite the year that had passed since first meeting her. Clearly you knew something the rest of them didn’t when it came to the woman because you spent a good bit of time trying to push her and Rooster together. And if Jake could tell by the occasional glances he shot the two, it looked like some progress had been made. Good, Jake thought. He wanted his friends to have what he had.
By far, it was the best party he’d been to, fully surpassing the unknown number of wild nights he'd dedicated to getting hammered in college. Jake liked the intimacy of it all, even more so after it had died down and most guests returned to their own homes, leaving just you and his team remaining.
“Well,” Rooster began after taking a sip of the beer that you’d made sure to pour into a polka-dotted plastic cup, “I hope you enjoy being old, Hangman.”
Phoenix tucked her finger under the elastic band holding the cone-shaped hat to Rooster’s head and pulled it a good few inches away from his face before releasing it. It slapped harshly against his skin and with a frown, he rubbed his palm over the fresh sting.
“If he’s old, we’re all old,” she scolded. “And you should be nice to the birthday boy.”
“The birthday boy’s got enough nice things. He’s got his lovely lady.” He winked at you and you rolled your eyes with a chuckle. Then he extended his finger to lightly tickle Eve’s cheek. “And he’s got this little nugget.” 
When his daughter giggled in his arms, Jake pressed a gentle kiss to the top of her hair. He smiled contently before turning his head to connect his lips with yours. You both grinned into the kiss, that usual fluttering blooming in his stomach as you placed your hand on his cheek to draw him in closer. 
“Ok,” Payback just short of shouted, trying to pull your and Jake's attention back to the surface. “You know other people are here, right? And you’ve got a child in your arms.”
Separating from Jake, you looked back to your group of friends. “That was an innocent kiss.”
Fanboy snorted and took a bite of his cake. “It was no peck,” he mumbled around a mouthful of sponge and frosting. 
Jake reached behind you to rest his hand against your lower back, but it lasted there all of five seconds before traveling lower to settle on your ass. "Well, that’s as innocent as we get," he said.
“Pathetic,” Rooster playfully scoffed. “Be less in love with each other.”
“Not a chance, man.”
Everyone released a mocking groan at the sappiness, but Jake only snickered and leaned over to kiss your temple. It wasn’t the first time his teammates had joked about your supposed ‘nauseating’ obsession with one another, but underneath, their love for the two of you together was more than supported. 
“We should probably go,” Phoenix said. They all nodded in agreement, hugging you and Jake before giving extra special goodbyes to your daughter. Then they were gone—so much like a herd of wild animals or a school of fish migrating in one giant mass. 
Jake blew out a breath. He wasn’t old, but it didn’t mean the man didn’t feel the exhaustion of the long evening. 
“Tired?” you asked, extending your arms for Eve. 
He handed the girl over to her mother and shook his head. “No, I’m fine.”
“Good, because your night is not over yet.” 
Jake’s eyes followed the movement of your finger drawing a line down the row of his shirt buttons. He looked up at you. “Is that right?”
You winked, and as you turned on your heel to go put Eve to bed, Jake began to throw forgotten used cups and plates into the trash. They littered the area but he expected no less. His friends had a habit of bringing a tornado with them just to vanish when time to deal with the aftermath. 
“You don’t have to do that, baby,” you said, stepping back down the stairs. He felt your arms snake around his waist a moment later and squeeze. “Come with me instead.” 
Taking his hand, you led him to sit in a dining chair and settled yourself onto his lap. 
He knew his gaze was burning as it roamed over the features of your face. The only time it wasn’t was when he made sure to tamp down his desire in front of his daughter. But his baby girl was asleep now, and nothing stopped him from unveiling the entirety of what he felt for you. 
He was fully prepared to capture your lips in a kiss, but you stopped him when you said, “I got you a birthday present.”
Jake cared; he did. But you’d already given him so much and his neediness for you blocked out any ability to think of what could possibly be more important than you on top of him; he inside of you. 
He hummed lowly. “Does it happen to be lacy?” he asked. His fingers slid along the smooth skin of your thigh, pushing up the hem of your dress. “And under here?”
“Yes,” you grinned as you tilted your head down to brush your nose over his. “But I got you something else, too. Something better.”
You hopped up, slipping from his grasp before he could blink and disappearing around the corner into the hall. He instantly felt the gaping hole of your absence; the chill now coating his skin from the sudden loss of your warm body. He wasn’t a fan.
“Honey, I’m not sure there’s much better than you all dolled up in lace,” he called after you. 
You returned with your hands tucked behind your back, a sweet smile on your face as you once again took your seat atop his thighs. Jake rose a brow at your barely contained excitement when you whipped an envelope out and held it in front of his face. He leaned back a bit to get a good look, but the crisp, white folded paper was blank. 
“What is this?”
“You have to open it and read.”
He did as told and took it from your hands, lifting the unsealed flap and pulling out another folded sheet of paper. One of his arms snuck around your waist, holding your body flush against his again—tighter this time so you had no chance of escape—as he began to read aloud. 
“Petition for a change of name of a mi—” Jake’s voice caught on the syllable. His whole body, organs and all, briefly froze within him. A swallow strained his throat. “Minor,” he finally finished. He let the word settle on his tongue and when his brain regained functioning and fully processed the weight of its meaning, his eyes flicked over to yours. “Are you serious?”
Nodding with surety and cupping his cheek, you said, “I want to change her name. You just have to agree and we’ll sign some papers.”
The tears began to cloud his vision, fuzzing the words on the page as he read them again and again. “So, she’d…”
“She’d be Eve Seresin.”
Jake had imagined it before, dreamed about it. His sweet family—a small unit of Seresins that might one day grow into a decent sized bunch. You and he outnumbered by a group of little ones. But since your baby girl was such a surprise and you’d had Eve without him there—without him even in the picture at the time—her name was yours. Jake was fine with that. Of course, he was. It only made sense, and he wasn’t going to demand his daughter take his name just because you and he were officially together. But he couldn’t deny how the thought of his baby girl being a Seresin in name delightfully tightened his chest. He wouldn’t be too terribly upset by his woman sharing his name, either.
With your free hand, you brushed away the escaped salty droplet that slipped down his cheek. He met your eyes again.
“Honey, are you sure? Just because she doesn’t have my name, doesn’t mean—”
You shook your head. “I know, but your family name means something to you,” you said. “Besides, I imagine we’d be doing this sooner or later, and with Eve starting daycare in a couple of months it’s really the perfect time.”
You’re amazing, you know that? He thought about saying it every time he looked at you. Every time he saw you walk through the door, or take care of your daughter, or when you crawled into bed and cuddled up to him. And moments like this, when you expressed your devotion in such wonderful, unexpected ways. 
Jake put his hand on the back of your neck and pulled you down for the kiss he’d been desperate to give you. It was a pattern of long kisses between short kisses, with some kisses making their way to cheeks and jawlines, and eventually, his lips found the sweet, delicate skin of your neck, sucking red marks into the flesh. He liked those marks—made sure to give them to you often—a new one for every old one that disappeared. He was especially adamant about it once you’d started back to work at the bar, remembering all too clearly the wide range of drunk men that went far out of their way to hit on you. But you were his now. You shared a daughter, you had a future, and he didn’t need other guys thinking they were going to get lucky with his lady. And though you didn’t give him the satisfaction, he knew you secretly loved it, too.
You moaned, your head naturally falling to the side to open access to more of your skin, and Jake gripped your neck a bit harder, holding you still as he took a gentle bite.
“I love you,” he whispered against your neck, licking over the fresh mark to soothe the tenderness before lifting his head. “And you gave me a wonderful gift.”
The glimmer in your eye—he lived for that glimmer. That little shine of pride. “Yea?”
“Yea.” He smiled softly. “Any chance you want to get your name changed, too?” 
That smile morphed into a pout, his bottom lip slightly puckering.
“Don’t puppy-dog-eyes me, Seresin.”
“But Honey, I can get a wedding together so fast.”
You rolled your eyes and shook your head, but your lips were struggling to stay in a straight line. They begged to curve upwards; to part and bare your white teeth in the perfect smile that had taken him to his damn knees the first time he saw you. 
Jake loved when he could get your smile to break through any emotion you were feeling or trying to portray. He was convinced that was one of the reasons you worked so well together. Crying, irritated, exhausted—didn’t matter what it was, he could find some way to get you to crack a smile. Now was no different. 
He knew you weren’t going to say yes; your relationship was officially only six months old and you’d always lived by a hard line of being with a man for a year before getting married. He knew this before you even slept together, back when you were friends exchanging innocent thoughts about potential futures. But that didn’t mean he didn’t enjoy hinting at the subject every once in a while. 
“We’ll talk about it,” you said, moving one of his stray blond locks back into place. “But let's start with our daughter’s.”
“Yes, Ma’am.”
He accepted your kiss—your promise that when he asked you that question for real, you would say yes. That was enough for him. When you were ready, he would get down on his knee and present the ring he’d had made a month ago, and you would start another chapter. But for now, everything he had was enough. More than enough. More than he could’ve dreamed of. 
“Would you like to have your other present now?” you asked. 
Your finger slowly traced the neckline of your dress, pulling down just a bit to reveal the lacy trim of your bra.
Jake took in a deep inhale through his nose and let the exhale fill his cheeks as it left his body. Just under that dress was a layer of thin, intricate material in a deep shade of red just barely covering some of his favorite parts of you. Swallowing hard, he replaced your finger with his and pulled the front of your dress lower to expose more of the garment. The lace barely contained the swell of your breasts, and he instantly hardened beneath you, cock straining against the zipper of his jeans. 
With his eyes still glued to your cleavage, he nodded. “I would absolutely love to have my other present now.”

I'll Be Seeing You
Tumblr media
✯ Chapter 1 ✯
Okay, it's been a while since I've written a fic that wasn't a one-shot, so I'm really hoping that it's something I can keep up with. I currently have about four chapters planned, but they are still developing. Even in this chapter, I changed a few things to make the story flow better!
Pairing: Fizzarolli x reader (still debating if I want to make it a polyamorous relationship eventually)
Warning: Swearing
Word Count: 3K
Tumblr media
When you’re a kid, the sky's the limit regarding your dreams. No one expects you to have it all figured out, and for the most part, a little voice in your head tells you that you’ll make it out of your situation. Little did you know, it would come at a cost. 
~~
Clutching your chest, you quickly sit up as you try to calm your frantic heartbeat. Several weeks have passed, and you keep having dreams of your past and all the choices that got you where you are today. You take a breath as you look at the slivers of red that pass through the opening of your curtain. 
How long has it been since you fell asleep?
You sigh as you reach for your phone to catch up on anything you might have missed while sleeping, which wasn’t much. Nothing new there. You lay back in bed and stare at the ceiling. These days seem to be going by slower, and you blame it on the lack of sleep due to the dreams. 
Flashes of red and white. 
Of horses.
Of black and white horns.
You shake your head as you check the time. It was still early, and you wouldn’t have to check into work until later on. You currently work as a singer at a live music club in the Pride Ring. You didn’t live an expensive life, but you were content for the most part, especially when you got to sing. When you were a child, all you ever wanted to do was perform in front of people and make them feel something. You never got that opportunity as a child, though. You wince as a memory enters your mind.
“Blitzo! I have to clean that up,” you pouted as you picked up the garbage your friend tossed everywhere on the floor. 
“It’s not my fault you got me a gift and made it impossible to open,” Blitzo says while trying to untape the gift box that was previously in another taped-up gift box. 
You couldn’t help but smile widely as you waited for Blitzo to finally get to the actual gift. You glanced at Fizz, who was just as excited about the gift as your other friend. As if sensing your gaze, he looked up at you and stuck his tongue out at you.
“This is low, even for you! You know Blitzo can’t resist a gift,” Fizz teased.
You giggled as you saw Blitzo’s frustration at opening the gift box and finding yet another gift box inside. 
“Well, I couldn’t make it easy for him,” you said, reaching out to grab the discarded tape Blitzo had thrown to the side. " Besides, his gift is in the next box.”
Fizz smiled and shook his head at you. He looked back at Blitzo's hand, and he was close to opening the final gift box. Once he managed it, he removed its contents.
“No way,” Blitzo’s eyes lit up as he took out a little gold figurine of a horse and a heart-shaped locket.
“I was walking around some shops in my free time and saw it in the window. I knew right away that it was meant for you,” you said as Blitzo launched himself at you, nearly tackling you.
“Thankyouthankyouthankyou,” he said as he hugged you before releasing you to admire his new figurine some more. 
“It’s no problem, Blitzo! You deserve it and more. Now,” you turn and take another gift box from close by, “I couldn’t forget a gift for my second favorite clown!”
Blitzo giggles as Fizz slightly frowns.
“Not funny.”
“Awww, come on Fizz. I’m just joking. You know you’re my favorite,” you giggled as Blitzo’s jaw dropped. 
Fizz instantly beams at the use of the word favorite. 
“Anyways, I saw this in the window, and I-”
“What’s going on here?”
The three of you turn towards the voice belonging to Blitzo’s dad, Cash. 
“Look, Dad! It’s a gold-”
“Shouldn’t you be cleaning the bleachers,” Cash turns to look at you, “They’re not cleaning themselves, girl!”
You felt your face flush in embarrassment at being talked down to in front of your friends, especially when they had acts in the circus. You were just a janitor for all intents and purposes. 
“Sir, I was just taking a little break with my friends,” you said with a tiny voice.
You hated feeling so small—not in a childlike way, but in a way that made you feel like your life was worth less because you were there to clean everybody else’s mess. 
“If you want a break, how about I fire you now, and you get all the breaks you want, huh? And what did I tell you about distracting my star,” Cash snapped at you. 
You felt your eyes tear up as you looked at Blitzo, whose head hung low. You felt bad for him. His own father preferred another boy as his son. You remembered the time his father had sold him for such a low cost and made him steal. That felt like so long ago now.
“I know, sir, but we’re kids too…We just want-”
“I don’t care! Fizzarolli, do you think that big clowns get to where they are because they spend their time talking to the help,” Cash said cruelly.
You turned to look at Fizz. He looked down at the unopened gift box in his hands before setting it slightly off to the side. 
“Fizzy?”
Your voice cracked as you realized he wasn’t going to respond. You looked up at Cash and saw the shit-eating grin he had on his face. You couldn’t help the tears beginning to pool in your eyes.
“I’ll get started right away, sir. I hope you enjoy your gift, Blitzo. Sorry for distracting you from your work, Fizzarolli,” you said bitterly. 
Cash watched as you picked up the last remnants of trash from Blitzo’s gift. You stood up and were getting ready to leave, but not before quickly snatching the letter attached to Fizz’s gift. You could see Fizz’s distress at your action, and you watched him throw a random piece of trash he had been playing with in front of him. Still, you walked forward. You wanted to walk away with some dignity.
“Aren’t you going to pick that up,” Cash barked at you, looking at the scrap in front of Fizz. 
Blitzo and Fizz looked at you as you slowly walked before him and picked up the scrap of trash, a tear running down your face. You couldn’t even bear looking at either of them at this point. You sprinted out of the small tent to head to the main tent and begin your work.
Your heart tugs as you push the memory out of your head. It was bad enough living through it. You don't need to be reminded of it anymore, considering you’ve seen commercials of Blitzø and Fizzarolli as adults. It hurt seeing their faces, especially after the way you left. Still, you wouldn’t allow yourself to dwell on it for longer than a few minutes. There was no point. Thinking about it wouldn’t change what happened. 
~~
After lazing around all day, you finally begin walking to work. You could take a car there, but it was so close, and you enjoy the time it gives you to mentally prepare. While performing was always your dream, it still got you nervous, especially if the crowd in the club was bigger than usual. Some days, the line would stretch outside the club door’s entrance. 
As you walk down the street, looking at the sights, you catch sight of a locket in one of the shop windows. You stop as you instinctively reach up to your locket tucked away under your shirt. You feel a ghost of a smile as you remember the gift you had given Blitzo and Fizzarolli. Your locket had pictures of a young Blitzo and Fizzarolli, Blitzo’s had a picture of you and Fizzarolli, and Fizzarolli’s had a picture of you and Blitzo. You sigh as you wish you could have seen Fizz’s reaction to the locket (and the letter, but that was neither here nor there). 
You see the club fast approaching and notice people already arriving for the night. So much for practicing on stage when you arrive. It must have been one of those nights when they would open the club a bit earlier. 
You quickly step to the side entrance and are let in by one of the bartenders on break. You shoot them a quick smile before finding your way to your dressing room. You always need a moment to take a breath and warm up. You begin humming as you apply minimal makeup. You just required enough so that the spotlight wouldn’t wash you out. You hear faint music in the background as you look at the door of your room through the mirror’s reflection, another memory sneaking back up. 
After cleaning the main tent, you decided to retire to the secret location you went to when you felt sad. You would typically watch your friends perform, but you didn’t want to talk to anyone about what happened earlier. You figured you could stay there until late at night before sneaking back into your tent. 
You finally made it to the location, which consisted of a lot of open space and a giant tree you liked to sit under. You softly threw yourself under the tree as you looked up at the sky, which always seemed to be the same shade of red despite the time. You closed your eyes as you tried to find a way to pass the time. However, your eyes shot open when you heard a tree branch rustling. Before you knew it, something, or more like someone, swung down from the tree branch to sit next to you.
“Heya,” Blitzo said, throwing his hands out and laying beside you. 
You rolled your eyes at how he seemed to have forgotten what had transpired earlier. 
“Blitzo, I told you to stop coming here! This is my secret place,” you whined. 
Blitzo turned to look at you, and it was his turn to roll his eyes.
“It’s not exactly a secret if people can easily walk to it from the circus.”
“Still…” 
You wanted to be alone, but Blitzo always had a way of showing up when that was the case. Some part of you was glad. Even though you wanted to be alone, it didn’t mean that was what you needed, and being around Blitzo always made you feel better. You were content to stay silent, but that wasn’t what Blitzo had in mind.
“Oh! Fizz wants to see you after the show. He wants to talk to you and get the complete gift,” Blitzo said as he sat up, looking down at you.
You quirked your eyebrow as you sat up as well. The complete gift? He must be on about the letter. 
“I wouldn’t want to distract Fizzarolli from all the important stuff he has to do,” your words are filled with sarcasm. 
“He’s coming here whether you like it or not. My dad can’t be the reason your friendship goes down the drain,” he plays with his hands, “he can’t ruin anything else.”
You feel your attitude drop at that last part. You make eye contact with him and nod to confirm that you will give Fizz the complete gift. He smiles slightly, and your eyes catch the locket around his neck. You feel a smile start to spread. He follows your gaze and rolls your eyes.
“Yea, yea. It’s not a big deal,” he stands. " Anyway, I've got to get ready for the show, but I’ll see you after, okay?”
“Alright,” you respond hesitantly as you watch him start the walk back to the main circus tent. Eventually, he walks into the tent, leaving you alone again.
You reach down to your pocket where you had folded up the letter you would give to Fizz. You had spent so much time ensuring everything was perfect, only for the moment to be ruined. You sigh and throw yourself back again, allowing the tears to reappear. This was a safe place to do so. 
The wind was blowing slightly, and you couldn’t help but reflect on your life at the circus. You had joined after you were left alone due to…circumstances. Luckily for you, Fizz and Blitzo found you on the street and asked if you were alright. If only little you could see where you were now. Would you have taken their outstretched hands? 
You didn’t know how much time had passed, but you did know it wasn’t long until people started flooding out of the tents. You felt your stomach do flips. Were you ready to tell Fizz what the letter said, especially after his silence today? Your love for him was unconditional. You only ever saw Fizz, your best friend, not Fizzarolli, the performer. You cared so deeply for him and Blitzo. They saved you and made a home in your heart that would never disappear, but you were dreaming if you thought they would ever forget your place at the circus. 
But what did that mean for you? Would you be willing to stay in a place that would lead to you yearning for something that would never happen? Were you willing to stand by and watch your friends move on in life without you? Fall in love without you? Watch Fizz fall in love with someone? 
You sat up as tears began flowing faster down your face. Your heart was in your throat as years of self-hate and pain started pouring out. Your sobs become audible. 
No, you wouldn’t become the pathetic friend who fell in love with someone they couldn’t have, the pathetic friend who thought that what they did didn’t matter as much as who they were. 
You looked up at the circus, a decision being made in your mind. You stood up and quickly ran back to your tent. You tried to listen to the performance and realized it was two acts from the end. You quickly grabbed your backpack and packed only the most valuable things you owned. The rest could be replaced, but things like gifts from your friends, items from your past before the circus, and even a hoodie from the circus were something you couldn’t part with. 
The final act was beginning—Blitzo and Fizz’s duo act. Your heart pounded as you thought about what you were doing. It wouldn’t hurt to try to see just the beginning, so you left your backpack hidden by the circus’ entrance. You snuck into the main tent and climbed to a location where only Blitzo and Fizz could see you. They still hadn’t dropped down, and you saw them messing around from across the space. Blitzo saw you first, and he beamed at you as he waved. You couldn’t help the smile that automatically appeared as you waved back. Fizz turned to see what he was waving at and saw you. He gave you a soft smile with a hesitant wave, and you felt your smile falter. 
Your first love. That’s what it was. Boy, was it frightening. But you wouldn’t fuck up his life. You knew he would make it far without you. You gave him a sad smile and noticed both of their concerned expressions. 
‘Why?’ You see Blitzo mouth, and your eyebrows raise. He mimes tears, and you reach up and feel them. 
You quickly wiped them away and chuckled to yourself. You’re terrible at leaving, but you had to, and their entrance was fast approaching.
‘It’s fine, I’m okay,’ you mouth back with gestures to match. 
They look at each other before turning to look at you worriedly. They can’t do anything, though.  They won’t. They have their jobs to do. You watched Fizz grab the rope nearby that he would swing down on, but not before turning to look at you again.
‘See you after,’ he mouths before raising his voice to ask Blitzo if he is ready. You begin making your descent, and you walk out of the tent. You quickly grab your backpack and take off at full speed towards the tree. 
FIzz was the one who showed you this tree. You liked pretending it was a secret space just for you, but it was all of yours. You stared up at it, and you felt the tears come back. You were okay, though. This was for the best. You pull out the letter you wrote to Fizz and place it at the tree's base. You didn’t bother weighing it down. If it flew away, it’d probably be a sign. Part of you hoped it would blow away, just like you. You turn towards the main tent and notice the early leavers are already spilling out. 
“There’s the rest of the gift, Fizzy. I hope you enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed getting to know you—the both of you. You saved my life in more ways than you know. I know you’ll do great things,” you whisper as you turn to leave. You hear the sound of people getting louder, and you run—for the second time in your life. 
Your eyes focus on your figure in the mirror, and your mascara was running a bit. 
“Damn it,” you move to get tissue papers, “I need to stop thinking back. We’re all better off now.”
You look unconvinced in the mirror and try on a smile to trick your body into believing it is okay. 
“It’s fine, you’re okay,” you whisper. 
You hear a knock on your door, followed by the stage manager’s minute warning. You take a deep breath and look at yourself in the mirror again. 
You looked like a proper singer. You smile gently and head out to the club's backstage area. The curtains are closed, and you can hear the hum of music and people having fun. You hear the emcee announcing your act next, and you can’t help but think about how far you have come. 
You did it. You made it out.
The curtains open, and the spotlight lands on you.
Tumblr media
I hope you all enjoyed this first chapter! I'm really pumped to get the rest of these chapters written and published. I don't have a set timeline since I'm currently in college, working a job, and performing in a theater production, but I will try to work on this whenever I can!
Also, just a little spoiler: in the next chapter, we will see someone from our main narrator's past (outside of flashbacks)!
Edit: The original name of this fic was "Dream a Little Dream of Me," but I have decided to change it to "I'll Be Seeing You" since this song fits the story a bit more!

Title: Changes
Chapter: 13
Rating: M
Word count: 3614
Warnings: Crocodile and Mihawk are being dicks, ANOTHER damn flashback, language, minor violence.
Chapter Excerpt:
It's been blatantly obvious from the start that Mihawk and Crocodile want nothing to do with him. He doesn't know why he even tried fixing their relationship, they were never going to be three people who got along.
This isn't the Oro Jackson and he's not dealing with someone like Shanks, nor is he dealing with a random stranger or even a member of his own crew. He should have realized all his efforts would go in vain and that Crocodile and Mihawk came to the island with a deep-seated hatred and lack of respect for him embedded in them already. Whatever, it's fine. Buggy's not mad or upset or even disappointed. He's completely fine.
|Ch1|Ch2|Ch3|Ch4|Ch5|Ch6|Ch7|Ch8|Ch9|Ch10|Ch11|Ch12||
Tumblr media
At this point, Buggy is unsure of what he can do to improve his relationship with Mihawk and Crocodile. He's tried throwing them a dinner, but that didn't work. He's also tried giving them gifts, but that was another failure and it turns out they're a lot more difficult to please than Buggy thought they'd be. He's at a loss and is unsure what to do at this point to make his two new 'subordinates' like him.
Perhaps his best option is to just be direct and try to talk to them, even though every time Buggy tries to speak to them or do something nice for them, they just push him away or reject him. He can't just leave his relationship with Crocodile and Mihawk as it is though, that'd never work and surely it'd grow tiresome sooner or later.
Buggy decides to make his move the next time Cross Guild has a meeting. He waits patiently for Crocodile to finish going over all his plans as well as announce any progress the newly formed group has already made, remaining silent the entire time so he doesn't annoy Crocodile any. After Crocodile wraps everything up, Buggy quickly clears his throat and speaks up before Mihawk or Crocodile can leave, "Uh," he mutters, his voice trembling slightly, "Can I talk to you guys about something?"
At the sound of his request, Mihawk and Crocodile turn towards Buggy and narrow their eyes at him, giving him a judgmental look. Neither of the two say anything but the look they have on their faces says it all: 'What now, clown?'
Buggy chuckles and finds himself growing uneasy by the other two's hardened glares. He shifts in his spot slightly before continuing,  "So, uh... look, guys. I'm just going to come out and say it. I know you're probably thinking I'm being so annoying by constantly trying to be you guy's friend but I want you to know I'm really trying my best here!" He states and afterwards he tries to read Mihawk and Crocodile’s expressions, but there's not much he can decipher about their mood.
They look as irritated as usual.
"I don't want to fight with you guys all the time or have you guys hate me or anything like that!" Buggy explains, "Look, everything has pretty much been out of my control. I don't know why everyone thinks I'm the boss or whatever, but I never wanted that spotlight and I still don't. What I really want is for us all to get along and for Cross Guild to be successful!"
Mihawk and Crocodile continue to stare Buggy down, but they're silent. No bitter insults, no rejections, no fighting. Just silence. The two don't even leave the room immediately or tell Buggy to go away. Perhaps this is them willing to finally give Buggy a chance?  "I'll just go ahead and say I'm sorry if I've made you two mad or offended you in the past. I promise I can change and that I can be someone useful to you, so... Uh, can we maybe give being friends a chance?" He asks, giving them both a sheepish grin.
There's a long pause after Buggy finishes speaking, and with every passing second, he can feel his anxiety growing in his body.  This is the first time that he's actually been listened to by either men, and this really feels like his one and only chance to make things right.
The three of them don't even have to be best friends, Buggy just doesn't want to be constantly threatened or beaten up, but if they could develop a close relationship that would be perfect because Buggy realizes with his newfound status as emperor of the sea he needs all the allies he can get. "Uh, what do you guys think?" Buggy asks when Mihawk and Crocodile fail to answer him.
"You're serious about this, aren't you?" Crocodile asks and then afterwards he begins to laugh. His loud, mocking laughter booms throughout the meeting room and Buggy's ears, "I already told you this, but I guess you forgot. I don't need no friends, especially useless ones like you." He tells Buggy, and it's like a stab to the chest. "How would being friends with you benefit me? You're penniless and weak, and you can't do even the simplest task. The only thing that you have going for you is your status as an emperor, but to tell you the truth, I don't care about that."  
Buggy's face begins to heat up and he wants to argue. He wants to tell Crocodile that he definitely isn't a useless clown like he's always saying he is. Buggy has done so much in his lifetime and yet everyone always underestimates and belittles him. Buggy isn't weak and useless, there are people out there who actually fear and or admire him. 
"Your title really is just for show," Crocodile chuckles, "You're nothing compared to Red-Haired Shanks or Blackbeard. Hell, you're not even on the same level as that brat with the straw hat."
Being compared to the other emperors of the sea makes Buggy want to scream. Okay, but... He's at a loss for words. His pride is telling him to fight back and not let Crocodile put him down like this, but another part of him is saying that Crocodile’s right.
No, no, that's not right. Buggy's accomplished too. He traveled the Grandline as a child, he studied under dark king Rayleigh... He took over Orange Town... he... he almost executed Monkey D. Luffy, the same Monkey D. Luffy Crocodile is comparing him to, in Loguetown... He.... He was in the war...(not that he fought in it.)... He started Buggy's delivery service... He...
Maybe he didn't defeat a previous emperor for their spot and maybe he's not always causing a stir like the other three are, but... Buggy’s done things too, and it's not fair to compare him to the other three...even if his status does seem more or less like a fluke sometimes.
Buggy bites his bottom lip, "You haven't given me a chance to prove myself," he says, but for some reason, he doesn't deny Crocodile’s previous statements...maybe he is right. "I've purposely been lying low and doing my own thing. I-"
Crocodile cuts him off, "Bullshit. You haven't been lying low, you just can't do anything. You're useless both as a leader and as a potential friend. In fact, the only reason why I haven't snapped your neck is because Hawkeye here thinks you're a good little distraction." He snorts, "But the government hasn't tried to attack us yet, so who knows? Maybe you can't even keep a few measly Marines distracted."
Buggy takes a deep breath and tries to remain calm. He should have realized trying to be Crocodile's friend was pointless. He’s such a cruel, foul mouthed man who cares about nobody but himself. He doesn't want a loving supportive friend, he wants someone he can boss around and use for his schemes. If you don't prove your worth to him, you're useless...
Crocodile’s thought process goes against everything Gol D. Roger taught Buggy to believe in. Buggy’s former captain always told him that a friend is someone you should love, appreciate, and support unconditionally. Our friends may not be related to us by blood, but they’re just as important as family and should be cherished as such because life is so short. A friend is someone who you can depend on and won’t judge you or leave you behind during your toughest battles. It doesn’t matter how rich, smart, or powerful your friends are, what’s important is their heart and character.
Eh… Now that he thinks about it, his beloved former captain was always a bit cheesy and sentimental, but that’s besides the point. Buggy wouldn’t treat Crocodile as if he were just some pawn in a scheme or some glorified bodyguard. He doesn’t need Crocodile to prove his worth (but it certainly isn’t bad that he’s a well-known and very powerful pirate), and Crocodile shouldn’t need Buggy to prove his worth either, that’s not how a genuine friendship works. Whatever, though. Buggy’s over trying to be friends with that self centered prick.
Buggy forces himself to look away from Crocodile and turns to Mihawk. He swallows hard, "...Hawkeye," he calls out in a small voice, and, oh, how he hates how vulnerable he sounds right now. "You don't feel the same way, do you?" He asks, clinging onto hope that Mihawk really is the lesser of two evils.
Mihawk remains quiet for another painfully long moment before finally speaking up for the first time since their meeting ended, "More or less." He says in a cold, blunt voice. Oh, of course he feels the same way as Crocodile, Buggy thinks bitterly. "I won't waste my breath belittling you, but I don't need any friends either." Ah, that's Dracule Mihawk for you, he's always so cruel and direct.
"Okay, we don't have to be friends." Buggy states, looking between both of his fellow members of Cross Guild, "But could we at least treat each other with respect?!" He begs, more than willing to settle at this point.
The laugh that Crocodile lets out when Buggy asks him to do something as simple as give him a little respect is disheartening to say the least. "You actually think I'd respect a gutless coward like you?" He mocks.
"I..."
"Get fucking real!"
"I...I…" is all Buggy manages to stammer out because he feels more embarrassed than before. Crocodile treats him like he's nothing but a tacky, piece of gum here for him to chew up and spit out when he's ready. 
Somehow Mihawk's reaction is the same as Crocodile’s but different. He raises an eyebrow at Buggy, and if Buggy had to guess he'd say Mihawk's probably thinking something along the lines of: 'ME? Respect you? Respect is something you earn, and you definitely haven't earned my respect.'
"Forget it." Buggy mutters, "I'm just going to get back to work." He tells the other two men before lowering his head and rushing out of the meeting room. As he leaves he can hear Crocodile continue to mock him: "Did you hear that shit, Hawkeye?!"
Okay, Fuck them. Fuck Cross Guild. Fuck Buggy too for being so stupid and for even trying to be on good terms with Mihawk and Crocodile. It's been blatantly obvious from the start that Mihawk and Crocodile want nothing to do with him. He doesn't know why he even tried fixing their relationship, they were never going to be three people who got along.
This isn't the Oro Jackson and he's not dealing with someone like Shanks, nor is he dealing with a random stranger or even a member of his own crew. He should have realized all his efforts would go in vain and that Crocodile and Mihawk came to the island with a deep-seated hatred and lack of respect for Buggy embedded in them already. Whatever, it's fine. Buggy's not mad or upset or even disappointed. He's completely fine.
Why would the great and mighty Captain Buggy The Clown let two assholes like Mihawk and Crocodile determine his worth? Why would he let them get to him? He hasn't, he's fine. He's totally fine and he doesn't care what happens moving on. He'll just try his best to coexist with Mihawk and Crocodile and try not to get on their bad sides or whatever.
He says that he wants to live peacefully among Crocodile and Mihawk, and yet he does the one thing he probably shouldn't. He finds someone to angrily vent to, Cabaji and Mohji always listen to him without judging him and they always offer up the upmost support and advice, but Buggy doesn't need advice. He just needs to rant, and so maybe that's why as soon as he sees his two most trusted crew-mates, he disregards his current location and begins to air all of his grievances about both Mihawk and Crocodile.  
Buggy's mouth runs a mile a minute as insults, complaints, and anything you can think of come flying from between his painted lips. He tells the two other men how frustrated he is that Crocodile and Mihawk just can't play nice, and how they think they're the boss of him and can push him around. He tells them that they're both so stuck up and rude that it's unbelievable and that he's never met two people as insufferable as Mihawk and Crocodile. "I really tried!" He complains, throwing his hands up.
At this point his face is beet red and he's more furious than he'd like to be. "But nothing I do makes them happy!" He tells Mohji and Cabaji for what has to be the hundredth time. The two try and calm Buggy down but at this point he's a lost cause. "Can you believe they're acting this way? And for what reason? Because the world government made me an emperor and not them? Because they're stuck in some shitty organization with me? I didn't ask for any of this!" He tells them as his voice continues to steadily rise.
"But whatever. I don't care." Buggy laughs bitterly.
"Capt-"
"No, seriously I don't give a fuck anymore! I'm done trying to be nice to those two assholes. They said they don’t do friends, but is that the real truth? Do they not have friends because they don’t trust anyone and they’re too stuck up, or is it because they're both two insufferable assholes who no one wants to be friends with in the first place? I mean, really, who’d want to be their fucking friend? They’re two extremely bitter old men who can’t hold a conversation let al-"
"Captain Buggy..." Mohji calls out in a shaky voice, but Buggy continues to rant and rave about how much he hates the situation he's in. He hates that the world government takes him seriously and considers him to be a big enough threat to be an emperor of the sea, but that Mihawk and Crocodile think he's some weak, small time pirate. He was fine being just an errand boy before but now he's genuinely frustrated that Mihawk and Crocodile see him as beneath them and won’t treat him as an equal. "What gives those assholes the right?!"
"C..Captain..." Cabaji and Mohji stammer out at the same time. There's an intense look of fear on both of their faces that Buggy failed to realize before. He stops his rant long enough to give them both a confused look, "...What?" He asks, and when his two crew-mates gesture to something behind him with their heads, Buggy realizes just how badly he fucked up in an instant.
Buggy inhales a deep, shaky breath. Please tell me they aren't standing behind me. He thinks, about ten seconds away from pleading with the universe to just cut him some slack for once in his miserable life. Of course, though, Buggy has nothing but worst luck. In fact if he didn't have the most vile, atrocious luck imaginable, he probably wouldn't have any luck at all.
Buggy slowly looks over his shoulder and his stomach drops. He really has no luck at all, but perhaps this has nothing to do with luck and everything to do with the fact that Buggy foolishly trash talked Mihawk and Crocodile as soon as he got the chance to and in public.
Mihawk is the first to speak, "No, don't let us interrupt you. We want to hear more of what you have to say, Buggy The Clown." He tells him in an eerily calm voice, "By all means. Please elaborate why you think that we're insufferable and stuck up some more."
Buggy doesn't even know what he should say at this point. He laughs nervously, "Hawkeye....Crocodile...when did you two get here?" He asks, feeling like he's seconds away from hurling. Actually now that he thinks about it, maybe it's better if he doesn't know when Crocodile and Mihawk came and how much they heard.
Buggy realizes he's in deep shit, but he still takes a step back and raises his arms up in the air, "Oh, you know I didn't mean any of that stuff, you guys. I'm a clown, remember?" He laughs but no one laughs with him, "I like to joke around! I didn't really mean all those things, I was just joking..." he lies, feeling trapped.
"I for one didn't find your little joke amusing." Mihawk says and Buggy can notice the subtle shift in his expression and how irate he looks with him right now. "Did you, Crocodile?" He asks.
Crocodile's expression isn't any better, in fact it's ten times worse because Crocodile never hides his emotions, especially not ones like anger. "Of course i didn't." He replies with another mocking laugh, and it's at this point that Buggy realizes that he probably shouldn't try to talk to them anymore and that he should instead just run away.
So that's what he does, he takes off in a sprint, trying to put as much distance between him and Mihawk and Crocodile as possible even though he knows that it's pointless. He can't outrun Mihawk, the world’s strongest swordsman is too fast, but even if he could, he still has another man after him. Crocodile may not be as fast as Hawkeye, but he’s good at cornering Buggy and trapping him in a cloud of sand, and Buggy knows that he’s no match for either of them no matter how much he runs, ducks, and hides.
 
They catch Buggy with ease and once they do, they unleash all their anger, frustration, and pure hatred on Buggy. Their assault isn't just physical, it's verbal as well, of course it is. Crocodile and Mihawk’s cold, cruel words hurt a lot more than their fists do sometimes, depending on what’s being said, and Buggy finds himself quickly feeling overwhelmed as tears pour from his eyes.
"I knew you were just spouting a bunch of bullshit in the meeting room."  Crocodile hisses as he punches him for what has to be the tenth time, and Buggy wishes he were exaggerating when he says that. Crocodile’s wrong, though, Buggy was being one hundred percent genuine when he said he wanted them all to get along and treat each other with respect, it's just that he grew frustrated with Mihawk and Crocodile’s constant rejection and coldness towards him.
What else was he supposed to do? How else was he supposed to feel? He’s hurt and frustrated, can’t they see that? Buggy tries several times to explain himself, but it’s no use, Mihawk and Crocodile just continue to beat his face in and mock his every cry and scream until they finally get tired and storm away, leaving Buggy to lie on the ground a clobbered mess. 
Buggy’s entire soul feels shattered into pieces as he lie there, crying his eyes out. Mohji and Cabaji rush over to his side just as soon as Crocodile and Mihawk leave (He never expected them to intervene and if they did, it’d only cause more pain for him.) “Oh my god, captain, are you okay?” Cabaji asks.
No. 
Buggy doesn’t have the heart to respond to the question and the moment he realizes that Cabaji and Mohji are be his side, he tries to hold back all his pain and suffering. They sit him up gently and tell him that they’re going to get him all patched up and softly mutter how much they hate Crocodile and Mihawk just as much as Buggy does, and how Buggy is so brave and strong for putting up with them.
…Is he, though?
Buggy doesn’t feel very brave and strong, he feels like a loser who has no control over his life, but he doesn’t tell Cabaji and Mohji that, how the hell could he?
Things become more hostile between Buggy and Crocodile and Mihawk after that. It seems that his one little slip-up was enough to make Mihawk and Crocodile’s disdain for him grow ten times worse, but then again, maybe it doesn’t matter what Buggy said or did. Maybe things would have always ended up like this, after all Mihawk and Crocodile have absolutely no respect or sympathy for Buggy.

Because no one asked, I decided to draw up my OWN special interpretation of Team Hooligan, ✨WITH JEST!!✨
Mind you everything is mostly based off of my own headcanon, so enjoy it as you will!! I'll write brief descriptions that you can read right here !!!!
—————————
Fang the Sniper/Hunter
He/Him // 21 yrs old // Australian🇦🇺 & Dominican🇩🇴 // Bisexual
Fang is a mercenary/bounty hunter and the leader of Team Hooligan. Though he often works alone for most gigs, he considers his team to be a found family of sorts, despite not always getting along with them. He has a great fascination for guns, but often uses his regular cork gun unless it's for serious situations. He's easy to anger and is heavily motivated by his greed and desire to prove himself as a top notch mercenary. Though things don't always work in his favor.
He's told very few people about his origins, how he had once descended from a noble family, until "one incident led to another and now suddenly I'm all on my own!" The one thing he absolutely REFUSES to tell people is that Fang isn't really his birth name.
• Cocky, Greedy, and Selfish. Probably has a slight tinge of insecurity due to past failures with Sonic and company.
• Keeps cigarette packs on his person often.
• Has a small shack he and the others share together over in Mirage Saloon Zone. He started sharing his room with Jest once she started hanging around.
• Loves mechanics, no one else but him drives the Marvelous Queen, it's a vehicle of his own design.
• Likes playing card games, spicy food, and keyboards.
—————————
Jest the Jack Rabbit
She/Her // 21 yrs old // Puerto Rican🇵🇷 & Trinidadian🇹🇹 // Bisexual
Jest is another bounty hunter, who despite her silly clown appearance, is a very threatening figure. She's agile, quick witted, and carries around a baseball bat she calls the Wacky Whammer, that's bound to give anyone a painful concussion. She came across Team Hooligan after they [Mainly just Fang] attempted to mug her, to which they received a harsh beating at her hand. She has found herself to be fixated on their leader however, and sticks around them to watch them struggle for success.
She grew up in a circus with her sisters, before finding herself fixated on the chaos emeralds and chaos energy. Unleashing an ultimate chaos has been her grand goal as she hopes to spread her madness across the world. She plans to achieve that, either by herself or with other comrades as her stepping stool.
• Loud, Annoying and Obnoxious. Loves to push Fang's buttons and watch him lose his cool. Her not so secret crush on him is absurd.
• A known sadist, she enjoys intimidating others and seeks out the emeralds for power and chaos.
• Enjoys gossiping with her friends, Ace and Solar, particularly about the Hooligans.
• What her and Fang have is a somewhat open secret. It's hard to tell if they hate each other or love each other. From their endless bickering to Jest's raunchy flirting.
• Likes cinnamon buns, yo-yos, and fondant.
—————————
Bean the Dynamite
Any Pronouns // 15 yrs old // Brazilian🇧🇷 // Pansexual, Genderfluid
Bean is a young and spontaneous explosives expert, with a goofy and hyperactive personally that keeps the team on their toes. He carries around comically large bombs, no one is really sure HOW he does, but they don't ever seem to question his methods. Despite his lighthearted demeanor most of the time, no one can ever seem to tell what he's got cooking in that brain of his.
Not much is known of where Bean came from, but from what Bean's told about himself, he remembers being in an egg. And a great amount of movement. Up until he hatched and found himself all alone in the middle of the forest. Most just assume he hit his head or something before he ran into Bark.
• Silly, Scatterbrained, and Crazy. Hard to tell if he's a bad guy when he's so comedic.
• Fidgets constantly, he can't sit still for more than a few minutes.
• His bombs are handmade, and he likes gifting them to the others as surprises or as little pranks.
• Considers Bark to be an older brother figure who keeps him in check. Buys him Father's Day cards.
• Likes comic books, explosives, and gummies.
—————————
Bark the Polar Bear
He/They // 23 yrs old // Russian🇷🇺 & Haitian🇭🇹 // Pansexual Demiboy
Bark is the overall brawn of the team, being the strongest physically and able to do most of the heavy lifting if necessary. He's the most level headed as well, and finds himself being the one to pull everyone back when things get too complicated [If Fang himself isn't having a pissy fit]. He's particularly shy and doesn't really like communicating much with others, as he finds it quite difficult. And despite his rather prickly job, he means well and cares for others like Bean and Amy Rose.
Before he had become a member of Team Hooligan, it's been said that he's gotten his fighting experience from being that of a professional fighter. He doesn't enjoy bringing it up, but he prefers what he's got going on now. If any of the others ask to fight him, he'll consider the offer.
• Quiet, Tough, and Stoic. He cares though, he's just a bit shy when it comes to feelings.
• A walking furnace, he gets warm easily and has an itch for cold food often.
• Used to fight professionally at one point before joining Fang's gang.
• Selective mute and often communicates with sign language or writing.
• Likes seafood, belly rubs, and coloring books.

141 + König getting nipple piercings for your birthday! GN READER!
Tumblr media
Kyle “gaz” garrick
He was stressing about what to get you for your birthday like he knew he was goin got take you out for dinner but he just felt like it wasn’t enough you needed the perfect birthday gift
So he was thinking about what to get you and a nipple piercing post appeared on his twitter and suddenly he had an idea
He did actual research and thought about what type to get and how to take care of them etc
He chose horseshoe barbells he honestly thinks they are so cool but his friends clown on him and honestly it hurts his feelings a bit but honestly as long as you like them he doesn’t care
John “soap” mactavish
He wasn’t sure what to get you for your birthday so he asked gaz and he jokingly said “I don’t know mate, get your nips pierced or something”
He knew gaz was kidding but… it wasn’t a bad idea
So he he did some through research (one or two google searches) he thought it wouldn’t hurt too bad so he god hammered just in case (it hurt pretty bad)
He picked out a cute pair of barbells and he actually likes them maybe a little bit more than you he gets clowned on in the showers but he doesn’t care
John price
His algorithm on any social media he has been showing him nipple piercings for months before your birthday
He had given it lots of thought before getting them doing the appropriate research and finally getting them
He was actually pretty embarrassed before getting them and while getting them he was actually so surprised how badly it hurt he knew if would hurt but damn he got some gold barbells
Once they are done he shows them to you and your reaction made all his anxiety melt away he does not care what other people think he got them for you 🫶
Simon “ghost” Riley
He was scrolling through birthday gifts for your girlfriend ideas on google and he just saw it at the bottom of the list
He figures he has been with you in the relationship long enough to know your the one so he gets them for you and he already has tattoos so how bad could it be 🤷‍♀️
His anxiety was so high he could hardly feel it due to the adrenaline but after he left he started to feel it he got a fat
pair of silver barbells he really likes them and sometimes they catch on his shirt and give him a little jump scare
König
He desperately looking for things to get you for you birthday and low and behold his instagram algorithm shows him different kinds of nipple piercings
He’s always wanted some piercings but these ones were for you he had mass amounts of anxiety going in to the appointment the adrenaline helped the pain while he was getting them he got a thick pair of steel barbells
After he walked out of the appointment he was so relieved
But they are SO sensitive even though he got a type of piercing known for not catching they still rub against his shirts so he has to wrap his chest sometimes 😭
((✿: my new pfp is so cool 😈 it’s so on brand and cute)))

Milgram idol au (pt.10)
Tumblr media
009 Mikoto:
Mikoto's image was supposed to be like this cool, cold, casually affectionate and charismatic big brother. Sorta like the troubled artist type, the mysterious cute guy with earpieces on that you see everyday, that kind. But please, note the keyword, "was". You wanna guess what ruined it? That's right, it's everyone's favorite boy, Mikoto.
During debut he did try to act like that, I'll give him credit. Then as he got more and more comfortable on camera, his inner clown really started to show. So now people know him as the silly, goofy approachable childhood friend type, and Es sorta gave up on trying to force the other to act accordingly.
Still though, Mikoto sometimes reverts back to his debut era personality, which fans lovingly dub "John". At this point, they might as well be two separate idols given how widespread this idea is among the Milgram fanbase. Another popular concept is simply that of gap-moe.
One of the more fashionable male idols; sometimes the designers even allow him to pick out his own outfits. He read a lot of fashion magazines when he was in high school, trying to do the whole "glow up era" thing.
Following up on that point, he gets along well with Mahiru for that reason. Both of them are really interested in fashion and the general trends of society, and fans do appreciate when they can talk about their nails with him (aha projecting I wanna talk about my nails)
Uhh I lost track of the roles I gave out so he can be dancer + vocalist at the same time. Don't ask me why, I am NAWT going to research more dance/singing terms.
Used to have self-esteem issues starting out, which was why he originally stuck with the "John" personality in the beginning despite knowing he was nothing like him. It's simply easier acting cold and serious when he's on stage and doesn't need to say anything.
Ngl I can see him being very touchy/affectionate with other members, even with the hard-to-approach types like Kotoko and Amane. Whether it be an arm slung around their shoulders, linking hands to pull them towards something, a pat on their shoulder or even just pressing against them when sitting together, Mikoto is very physically affectionate. The other members reactions can vary, from annoyed, to indifferent, to delighted.
Posts a lot of random things. Sometimes they don't even make sense. It can be an aesthetic looking cake one day, then a chaotic and blurry photo of the other idols the next, then suddenly there would be a picture of a flattened grape against the concrete with no caption.
Would be one of the more active members on their social media account, posting at least 4 pictures and like 100 tweets everyday. Tweets, like photos, can range from supportive messages to fans, whiny complaints about his knees aching like an old man, and then "aaAaAaaaAAAAAAAAAaaaooOOooeeEeEeEeea" followed by dropping off the face of the Earth for the next 8 hours. Then he acts as if that never happened.
Loves to receive gifts at fansigns, like the little cute headbands or sunglasses. He always tries on every single one, literally will fight management to keep it until someone intervenes and reasons with him (It's Es. It's always Es. They are tired of his bs)
Poor boy can't lie for his life. It was so hard media training him, because he always does this thing where he shifts his eyes and scrunches his brows a little bit + lets out a nervous laugh.

Leia’s 7th Birthday 
You and Bradley stood there excited as you could see Leia approaching with everyone else. Jake was hauling a wagon with games in it, while Nat and Austin each held one of the boys. Leia was skipping over to the area. She hadn’t noticed it was for her yet. 
Right when she reached the top of a sand dune she smiled and pointed over to the party area, saying something back to the three adults with her. She was smiling as she pointed and you could see Jake nudge her to go take a look at this “Luau Area.” She started to run over and when she saw you and Bradley standing there at the beginning of the entrance she stopped dead in her tracks. Her eyes went wide and her jaw dropped. She covered her mouth and started to cry. 
Jake, Nat, Austin, and the boys caught up with her and she stood there frozen with tears running down her cheeks. You started to tear up and you could hear Bradley sniffling. You could see Austin crouch down next to her then placed a kiss on her cheek and nudged her to come over to her party. She gave Austin, Nat, and Jake a hug before she ran over to you and Bradley. 
She ran and slammed into you and him. Everyone yelled “Happy Birthday, Leia!” As you and Bradley got down on your knees and hugged your daughter. 
Bradley kissed Leia’s head over and over again as you hugged her. “Happy Birthday, my girl. Daddy loves you so much.” He held the both of you in a bear hug.
When you all pulled apart, you placed your hand on Leia’s cheek, wiped her tears, and fixed her hair. “Happy Birthday, My love. I love you, always.” You smiled at her and placed a kiss on her forehead. “Now go and have some fun, baby.” You placed one more kiss on her head as she nodded.  
She looked over at her party and got shy when she saw all her guests. Everyone yelled in surprise when they saw her making her way over to the party. You and Bradley made your way over to Jake, Nat, and Austin. You and Bradley grabbed the boys from Nat and Austin. You gave them all a hug and thanked them for watching the boys and keeping Leia occupied while you and Bradley set up for Leia’s Luau. You all made your way down the beach as Leia greeted all her guests. Bradley handed Luke back to Nat so that he could help Jake set up all the games that were in the wagon. 
You smiled and kissed little Brad on his cheek, “It’s your big sissy’s birthday!” You grabbed one of his little hands and bounced him around. A little grin appeared on his face. 
Nat was holding a sleeping Luke to her chest as you both watched on the party. Austin joined Bradley and Jake to help set up games. You smiled as Leia jumped around with some of her friends from school and said hi to more of her guests. You looked at Nat and smiled.
“I have a huge surprise for Leia. I hope she’s going to love it.” You looked back at your daughter as she ran around her party with her friends. 
Nat came closer to you and patted little Brad’s back. “What did you get for her?” She smiled with curiosity. 
You chuckled. “Not what, Nat. Who?” You widened your eyes at her as she looked at you confused. “Well actually, It’ll be a little gift for everyone.” You smiled back at her as she raised her brows at you. 
“Is that who, here already? Is there gonna be like a clown or something? Or is Bagman just going to be the clown to perform?” Nat started to laugh as you both looked over at the boys trying to figure out how to set up the games. She shook her head, “God, there are three of them and they can’t figure out how to set those things up.” 
You both laughed as you watched all three of them snatch the instruction sheet out of each others hands trying to explain to one another how to put the games together. You shook your head and looked back at Nat. “Close. But he wont be the clown of entertainment.” 
She looked at you with furrowed brows. “Then who?” 
You smiled and waved over to Bradley and the guys, “You’ll see soon, Nat.”
Bradley and the guys came running over to you. Jake looked frustrated as he still held onto the instructions, Bradley was smiling like a big goof at you, and Austin looked at Jake awkwardly. 
“Honey, Jake is so mad because he can’t figure out how to put the game together.” Bradley looked at Jake and laughed. 
Jake rolled his eyes and crumpled up the instructions, “Well I am paired with the dumbest pilot and the guy that gives grown men sponge baths.” 
Bradley laughed, “I don’t think you’re the dumbest pilot, Seresin. But definitely on the list.” 
Jake looked at him with wide eyes and shoved him as they both laughed. “Jerk.” Jake shook his head and threw the crumpled paper at Bradley’s head. 
“I don’t give grown men baths for a living… What do you think I do?” Austin looked up at Jake with confused yet scared eyes. 
Bradley and Jake looked at each other and laughed as they pulled Austin in for a hug. “Bradshaw is a grown man and you gave him a bath. So, I wasn’t completely wrong about your job, Aus.” Jake patted him on the chest.
Austin just shook his head and shrugged. 
Bradley brought his attention back to you and Nat who were standing there with shocked expressions on your faces. 
“What circus act did I just witness?” Nat looked at all three of them with wide eyes and a blank stare. 
Jake came over and wrapped his arm over Nat’s shoulders. “Your favorite one, that you are stuck with for the rest of your life.” Jake smiled big as Nat palmed her forehead. 
Austin took little Brad from you as Bradley came over and hugged you and gave you a kiss on your cheek. “What’s up, sweetheart?”
You smiled and nodded over towards the party. “I have a surprise for Leia and it’s ready!’ You bit your lips and jumped slightly of excitement. 
Bradley looked at you with furrowed brows, “Surprise? There is more?”
You nodded, “YES!”
You pulled Bradley over to the party, “Wait… babe, what else did we get her!?” 
Nat, Jake, Austin, and the boys followed behind you and Bradley into the party.
You and Bradley stood in the middle of the party guests. Bradley leaned down and whispered in your ear, “Babe, what did we get Leia??” Brady sounded so concern and worried. 
You giggled and patted his chest, “Don’t worry about it, babe.”
He looked up confused and then smiled at the guests and waved as you caught everyone’s attention. 
“Hi everyone! Bradley and I just wanted to thank everyone for coming out and being able to make it for our little girl’s 7th birthday. We are all excited to be able to celebrate the coming of not only our little girl, but the day our family was formed.” You looked up at Bradley and smiled. He kissed your forehead. 
Bradley looked up at the guests. “This is my first official time I get to spend with my little girl on her special day.” He got down on his knee and opened his arms to Leia. “And I can’t wait to spend the rest of them with you, baby girl.” Leia smiled and ran over to Bradley. He caught her in his arms and picked her up and kissed her over and over again. “I love you, my Leia Rey. happy birthday, Sweetheart.” 
Leia smiled at her dad as everyone started to coo over their little moment. “Thank you, daddy. I love you.” Leia kissed Bradley’s cheek.
You went over and placed a kiss on Leia’s hand and smiled. “Daddy and I… Well I have a gift for daddy and you, Leia Rey.” 
Bradley and Leia both looked at you confused with the same exact facial expression. You reached your hand out for Nat. She came over smiling while Jake and Austin followed behind. “I actually have a gift for all of you.” 
Everyone smiled at you with curious eyes. “Without further stalling.” You looked over to the entrance where their gifts were all setting up. “I know how much you miss home, baby.” You held out your hand to their gifts and everyone turned slowly. “Happy Birthday, Leia Rey. I love you.”
Bradley, Leia, Nat, Austin, and Jake all looked to where you where holding your hand out. There stood Mav, Penny, and Amelia dressed in all matching Hawaiian printed shirts and dresses. 
Bradley dropped Leia down to her feet as they both yelled. “Papa Mav!” “MAV!” Bradley and Leia both bee-lined for Mav, Penny, and Amelia. Bradley playfully pushed Leia over into the sand so he could get to them first.
“DADDY!!!” Leia started to stand up laughing. 
Bradley ran ahead and bear hugged Mav, Penny, and Amelia. “Oh my god! I missed you all so freaking much!” 
Mav patted Bradley’s back. “It’s good to see you up and running, kiddo.” 
Penny kissed Bradley’s cheek, “Oh, Rooster! You look so good! Mav had told me what happened and you are looking so good, honey!”
Amelia hugged Bradley tightly, “I’m glad you’re okay!”
Leia joined the group and squished herself into the group hug. “YOU’RE ALL HERE!” She screamed at the top of her lungs. Bradley took a step back and let Leia get her turn with them.
Mav picked up Leia and covered her in kisses. “Oh my little Jedi! You are so big!! Look at you! Happy birthday, sweetheart!” 
Penny joined in on the hug and kissed Leia’s head over and over again, “My Princess Leia! I missed you so much! Happy birthday, pretty girl!” Penny pushed Leia’s hair from her face as Leia began to cry happy tears.
Mav let Leia down and she hugged Amelia tight. “I’m so happy you are all here!” 
“Happy birthday, Leia!” Amelia gave Leia a present. Leia grabbed Amelia’s hand and ran her over to her friends. “Thank you! I wanna introduce you to my friends!!” 
———-
Bradley’s POV
I made my way back over to you and grabbed little sleeping Luke from Phoenix as you grabbed little Brad from Austin so they could all go and say hello to Mav and Penny. 
I watched as Hangman ran like a giddy little kid in the candy store to Mav. He had his hands flailing around and he was yelling, “MAV! PENNY!” he jumped into them and Phoenix followed behind with her hands in the air. She wrapped her arms around all three of them smiling. Austin joined in after Hangman and Phoenix got their fill with hugs. 
Mav came over to us and was stopped by Phantom and Evelyn. Mav’s eyes went wide and he pulled Phantom in for a hug. “It’s good to see you again, handsome!” 
Mav laughed and patted his back. “I wouldn’t miss this for the world! You remember Penny?”
Phantom gasped and threw his arms out for Penny, “Penny Benjamin! You still look as you did back when we were all getting in trouble! You remember my wife, Evelyn?”
Penny screamed when she saw Evelyn and they hugged and caught up while Mav and Phantom made their way over to you and I. 
I walked away for a second to grab bottles for little Brad and Luke.  Mav made his way over and gasped as he saw you holding little Brad. I watched from a far as his eyes flew out of his head. 
———-
Your POV
Mav came up to you with wide eyes and covered his mouth. In a high-pitched voice, he cooed over little Brad. “Ohhh my gosh! Is this himmm!?” He grabbed his little hands and gave Brad’s little knuckles kisses. “Hey, little Luke!”
Your eyes widened and you started to chuckle. “Mav…”
“Penny! Come here! They have a surprise to show you!” Mav called and waved over Penny. She came over excitedly. 
“What’s the surprise?” Her jaw dropped and her eyes went wide when she looked at you holding little Brad. “Whose baby is that, y/n?” She looked at you with squinted eyes. you started to giggle. “Y/n? Whose baby is that??” Her eyes widened when she looked at you. 
You smiled and Mav rubbed his index finger on his cheek causing little Brad to grin. “Can I hold him, y/n?” He started to tear up and you smiled. 
“Of, course you can, Mav. This is one of your grand-babies.” You handed little Brad over to Mav. Mav started to shake with him in his arms. 
“Grand-babies??” Penny was shocked and she started to tear up. “When the heck were you pregnant, y/n!?” She came over and gave you a hug, she held you tight as she patted your hair. 
“I was pregnant during my wedding, and even before that.” you hugged her back and giggled. 
She pulled back and covered her mouth, “WHAT!! I knew it! Those were not wedding nerves!” She pulled you back in tight and held you close. “God, you hid it so well, honey! Congratulations, he’s so beautiful!” She kissed your cheek and joined Mav admire and coo over little Bradley. 
“What’s his name?” Penny looked up at you and smiled. As you were about to say his name 
Mav interjected.  “Luke.” 
Penny looked up at you and smiled.  “That’s a beautiful name! Luke and Leia!” 
Mav nodded, “The little Jedis! His full name, Luke Nicolas Bradshaw.” He smiled down at little Bradley in his arms. 
You looked around and bit your lip. “uhhh.” 
Mav and Penny looked up at you and smiled. “What’s wrong, y/n?” Mav chuckled. 
Bradley finally made his way back over with the bottles for the boys. “Here you go babe, one for you and one for me.” He smiled down at you as he cradled little Luke in his arms. You both looked over at Penny and Mav. They looked down at little Bradley and then back at Bradley holding Luke slowly. 
Mav’s brows were furrowed as he looked back and forth between the baby in his arms and the one in Bradley’s arms. Penny was blinking at you and Bradley as she pointed to the baby in his arms. “Whose baby is that?” 
You and Bradley started to laugh. Mav stood there frozen. “Uhhh, Rooster? Y/n? Whose baby is that?” Penny was still waiting for an answer. 
Bradley shrugged and popped the bottle into Luke’s mouth. “Surprise!” He smiled at the both of them with wide eyes. Mav and Penny looked at each other with wide eyes. 
“We had twins.” You started to laugh as they looked at each other in shock. They looked back at you and raised their brows. 
“TWINS?!”
You nodded as Bradley handed Luke to Penny. 
“Congratulations, you two. More grandkids to watch!” Bradley laughed as they both looked down at the boys still shocked. 
“Holy. Shit.” Mav said as he looked between little Brad and Luke. Penny continued to feed Luke and you handed little Brad’s bottle to Mav so he could feed him. “Wait. So who do I have?”
Penny looked up and raised her brows. “Who is who and what are their names?” She was still shocked. 
Bradley went behind them and wrapped his arms around their shoulders. “Penny, you are holding our little Luke. Luke Nicolas Bradshaw. And Mav. you are holding our little Bradley.”
They both looked up at Bradley. Penny and Mav both started to tear up. “Bradley? You named him Bradley too?” Mav started to tear up even more. 
Bradley smiled. “Yup. Bradley Bradford Bradshaw.” 
Mav started to laugh and cry hard. “God, you are just like your old man.”
Bradley nodded his head and started to laugh. “They are beautiful, Rooster.” Penny cooed over the boys as she cried. 
Penny and Mav didn’t want to give anyone the chance to have the boys. They wanted to spend the whole party with them. You looked over periodically and watched as Mav held little Bradley in his hands and looked at him in awe. You watched as Penny took in every single detail of Luke’s face. 
You nudged Bradley and pointed over to Mav and Penny. “Look at them, Brad. They can’t take their eyes off of them.” You chuckled and smiled. You looked up at Bradley and watched him smile goofy.
“They’re in love.” He started to laugh. “They are the most handsomest boys ever. How could you not look at them like that?” Bradley looked down at you and placed a kiss on your head. “They get their glowing looks from their mama.” He smiled and rubbed his thumb on your cheek.
You shook your head and smiled while placing your hand on his, “They look exactly like their dad. They’re handsome because of you.” 
Leia came over and tugged on Bradley’s shirt. Bradley looked down at her and smiled before he picked her up. He placed a kiss on her cheek, “What’s up, my girl?” 
She pointed over to her papa Mav, “Papa Mav is summoning you, daddy.” 
Bradley laughed and let Leia down. “Thank you, sweetheart.” Bradley gave you a kiss before he left to go and sit with Mav and Penny. “Be back in a bit, babe. Go and enjoy yourself. Grandpa is calling for me.”
———-
Bradley’s POV
I made my way over to Mav, dodging a couple of kids that were running around spraying each other with water guns. I chuckled and smiled as Mav looked up at me. 
“You rang?” I plopped myself down on a chair next to Mav and Penny. 
“Bradley.” Mav couldn’t take his eyes off of little Brad. “This is incredible. They boys are perfect. They look like a perfect mixture of you and y/n.” He looked up at me and smiled. 
I shook my head and laughed. “Y/n said they look exactly like Leia Rey when she was a baby, so she thinks they look exactly like me.” Then little Brad started to fuss. I watched as Mav frowned and gave baby Brad a pouty lip. “I got him.” I smiled and put my hands out to grab him.
Mav handed him to me, “Let’s see, Daddy Bradley at work!” He chuckled as he watched me console little Brad. 
I gave little Brad a kiss on his lips and laid him against my chest, “You’re alright, baby. Daddy is here.” I started to rub his back and rock him slowly back and forth. I laid my head gently against his head as he started to calm down in my arms.
Mav leaned forward in his chair and rested his elbows on his knees. He chuckled. “Man, you are just like your old man.” He smiled over at me and patted my back. 
I smiled back and continued to rock little Brad in my arms. “Thanks, Mav. They would have loved them. All three kids are perfect.” 
Mav smiled and nodded as he placed a hand on little Brad’s back. “Most definitely. Goose and Carole would have been all over all three of them.” 
————-
As the party continued, Mav continued to help me watch the boys as you and Penny caught up and made sure Leia was having a great time at her birthday party. 
(Summer Nights by Iration playing in the background) 
I stood by the snacks table picking off a couple of cookies here and there as I held little Brad and rocked him to the beat of the music. Mav joined me and did the same with Luke. We made some small talk and he complimented Leia’s Luau set up. 
“Papa Mav!” Leia came running over with a couple of sea shells in her hand. He smiled at her and squatted down. 
“What’s up, my little Jedi?” He placed his hand on her cheek as he continued to hold Luke close to him. 
“I brought you some sea shells to put on your work bench when you get home!” She held her hands out and was showing them all to Mav. “Here, Papa!” She was trying to put them into his hand. 
I laughed and patted Leia’s head. “Sweetheart, how about you go and ask momma for a bag so you can put them in there for safe keeping?” 
She smiled up at me and nodded, “Good idea, daddy! His hands are already full with Luke!” She kissed Luke’s head before she ran her way over to you. I laughed and shook my head.
Leia came back with the bag full of shells, “Daddy, do you think we can play a game together? Or even make a sand castle!?” She smiled up at me excitedly.
“Of course we can, sweetheart. Let me ask Aunt Nix if she can hold your baby brother first, okay?” She nodded up at me and pointed to a pile of sand. 
“I’ll meet you by the sand hill! Papa Mav, ask momma if she can hold Luke so you can help us!”  She ran for the sand hill and waited patiently with her friends and Amelia.
Mav and I made our way over to you, Penny, and Phoenix. I kissed your cheek and smiled. “I apologize for the interruption, but would you ladies care to care for these handsome boys while papa Mav and I help the birthday girl with a sand castle?” I smiled at the three of you as you started to take little Brad from my arms. 
“Of course, we wouldn’t mind!” Phoenix grabbed Luke from Mav and kissed his cheek over and over again. “I was needing some time with my favorite little men.” Phoenix started to coo at Luke. 
I pointed over at Hangman and Austin as they played a mean game of corn hole. “Oh but your favorite little men are over there?” 
She looked over at them annoyed and looked back at me, “Fuck off, Bradshaw.” 
I covered Luke’s ears, “Geez Trace, babies…” I widened my eyes at her and laughed. She rolled her eyes and I laughed, “Thank you, ladies!”
Mav and I made our way over to Leia. “Daddy, can we burry Papa Mav instead? I want to make him into a mermaid!” Leia looked up at us excitedly. 
I looked over at Mav and he looked terrified. I laughed and patted his chest, “What do you say papa Mav?” I raised my brow at him and he nodded. 
“Anything for my little Leia.” He gulped and laid down on the floor. Leia gave him a towel to lay on as all the kids started to pile sand onto him. 
———-
Your POV
You looked around for Leia for a while because it was time for her cake. You remember that Bradley said they were going to make a saddle castle with her. You walked down the the water and saw there was a group of kids, Jake, Austin, Leia, and Bradley standing around and laughing. You made your way over and patted Bradley’s back. 
“Hey, babe…. Oh my god.” You stood there trying to hold in your laughter. You looked down and saw Mav covered in sand and shaped like a mermaid. “What did you guys do to Mav?” You covered your mouth and Mav pushed his lips together. 
“Sweetheart it’s okay to laugh. They’ve been laughing at me for the last 20 minutes.” Mav looked at you with ‘help me’ eyes.
You started to laugh and then you felt bad and got your self together. “I came over here because we are ready to do Leia Rey’s cake.” You were still trying to hold in your laughter. 
Leia jumped up and screamed. “AH! Finally! Let’s go Papa Mav! It’s cake time!” Leia grabbed your hand and started to drag you and little Bradley to the tent area with all of her guests waiting for her patiently. Her friends all ran behind and followed you three.
Bradley stayed back with Jake and Austin to help Mav out of the sand. They all dusted him off and they all wrapped their arms around each other shoulders as they laughed and made fun of Mav up to the tent. 
Phoenix handed Luke to Bradley as she and Austin went to grab the cake. You were standing at the table with little Brad in your arms and Leia bouncing excitedly in front of you. Bradley came over to the three of you while he cradled Luke in his embrace. Leia gestured for you both to come down to her level. She kissed each of her brother’s on their head. “I love you, babies.” She smiled and patted their heads gently. You and Bradley looked at each other and smiled. He had tears in his eyes. He was so in love with his kids. 
Phoenix and Austin finally brought the cake over and lit the candles. 
“Okay everyone! On three! Ready? One, Two, Three!” Phoenix guided everyone into inning happy birthday. You all sang happy birthday to Leia. She was smiling big at everyone. She was full of joy and love. Her eyes were huge as she was staring at her cake. 
Bradley got on his knee and kissed Leia’s cheek after you all finished singing happy birthday. “Make a wish my girl.” 
She closed her eyes and blew out her candles. “Can I say what i wished for?” She smiled at you and Bradley. 
“But what if it doesn’t come true, babe?” Bradley raised his brow at Leia.
Leia smiled and shrugged, “I think it is already happening, daddy. I wished for us to always be together. Me, you, Momma, Luke, Bradley, and Gunner. Forever.” She smiled slightly as everyone gasped at her wish. 
You and Bradley got down on a knee and kissed Leia over and over again. “We will always be together, sweetheart. Forever and ever.” Bradley caressed her cheek and kissed her head. 
“I love you, Leia Rey. Happy birthday, my big girl.” You kissed her cheek over and over making sure each kiss was louder and harder each time. 
Everyone took their pictures of you and your family. Eventually everyone got to take their turns with taking pictures with Leia and her cake. You and Bradley stepped aside, you had tears in your eyes. Bradley pulled you in and kissed the top of your head and the boys heads. 
“It’s us forever, honey. Seven years of our family. Even though I have only been present for one.” You both started to giggle. “I love you, babe, forever. Thank you for blessing me with a baby girl as great and perfect as Leia.” Bradley held you with his free arm and laid his head on top of yours. 
“Our little girl is finally 7.” You can hear him sniffle. You looked up as you watched him watch Leia take pictures with everyone. He was so happy and over joyed with tears in his eyes. 
“Happy Birthday, my girl.” 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

DO U HAVE ANY ANGSTY SEAN HEADCANONS??? OR ANY AT ALL??
DO I HAVE ANGSTY SEAN HEADCANONS???!? Is my tumblr url sushisocks??? I'm including just a couple non-angsty ones that are v important to me bcz we're here to have fun, after all lolol
Lets start out with a light one; Sean absolutely has ADHD and dyslexia. Everybody knows Sean can't read, but nobody asks WHY Sean can't read despite frequent opportunities to learn. Based on the camp interactions with Lenny, we know he has been willing to attempt to learn, but has given up. This reads a lot more like learning disability to me, than it does laziness!!
In a similar vein; Sean taking frequent naps/falling asleep a lot is because he's a light sleeper - he has had a hard time falling asleep and staying that way ever since his father got murdered in his bed by the law. Left an impression Sean can't really shake even when surrounded by friends and allies - it's easier to nap when it's light out and people are awake in the area. Combine that with the ADHD and suddenly he's sleeping when he's not supposed to - like on guard duty.
Btw Sean has REAL BAD nightmares so that doesn't help at ALL either
Sean's mom probably passed when he was very young - he doesn't have any tangible memories of her in the same way he does his dad. Telling stories about him is how Sean keeps the only real family he had alive.
SIMILARLY I imagine it was just the two of them fleeing to America together; Sean was right there when Darragh got killed in his sleep - I imagine him waking up to a gunshot tbh.
In previous posts I've talked some about Sean's parallels and similarities to Arthur. Consider; Sean having similar self-esteem issues as Arthur, but instead of being quiet and disparaging about it, Sean covers it up by boasting and talking a big game. Nobody tries to talk Sean up because they all think he has a big ego, and it sort of just feeds into the insecurities Sean already has & is trying to avoid thinking about.
Also; Sean is generally an open book about his feelings, but he struggles a LOT with being truly vulnerable or getting at the deeper stuff. He'll also always downplay and make a joke out of truly traumatic and desperate situations he's been in. Though he DOES tell you what happened, he's chuckling and acting like it's nothing. (This isn't even a headcanon, he actually does this very consistently. It's why Karen is so mad at him in that one camp interaction after the party lol)
The only times Sean feels comfortable not being The Camp Clown is when Dutch isn't around, with a limited amount of people to witness. He still feels weird about the fact that he did actually try to kill him, when they first met, like he actually pulled the trigger (I feel like people are prone to forget this abt him), and he's never sure if Dutch might resent or distrust him a little for it. Same goes for Hosea.
A MacSummers one I came up w on discord literally yesterday; Sean has a Claddagh ring heirloom he got from his late mother through his late father. He gifts it to Lenny at some point, who doesn't realize the symbolism, just the sentimental value. Lenny wears it on a chain around his neck.
The previous one could work for MacJones too but tbh I think it hits harder for MacSummers lol (im biased)
Sean blocked out a lot of what he experienced while holed up at Ike Skelding's; the teethpulling and the burned feet were probably some of the lighter things he had to endure.
Sidenote the fact that his feet were fucking burned being as brushed off as it is makes me fucking insane. How bad were they burned Sean? Are you in pain atm? Should you be walking?

Good golly gumdrops I'm gonna go absolutely apeshit real quick here
Disabled Buggy Ideas!!!!!!
Buggy who uses his Devil Fruit as a mobility aid on days when his joints are Extra Sore, especially his ankles/knees/etc.
Buggy who sometimes gets vertigo and so cannot always float around bc of the dizziness. On days like that, he has physical mobility aids.
His first aid was a can - Mohji and Ritchie stole it when the crew was still pretty new - Buggy was about 15, Mohji about 11, and Ritchie was a tiny little thing. They had noticed Buggy cringed a little more on certain days, when he walked or got up or sat down. They presented it to him with big smiles and Buggy wound up crying. They decorated it together.
His second aid was another cane, this one a gift from the crew, now bigger. They carved it and went absolutely ham with decorating it but sealing it well - his first one was a little worse for wear, paint chipping, wood a little roughed up. That one gets retired to a place of honor for Buggy's precious keepsakes. The new one is a bit sturdier too.
The third one came from someone on the crew actually. It was a hand me down. One of the tailors on board had recently gotten gifted a new walker to replace their forearm crutches. And when she was downsizing, she asked Buggy if he'd ever used them before, if he knew anyone who did. Those become his favored items because of the versatility, the cuffs, and how it evens out the pressure on his hands/wrists/elbows/shoulders.
At some points, he also gets braces, compression stuff, etc.
After Impel Down, his body was damn near debilitated. He was good for playing up the prestige and audacity and faux confidence, but Shanks saw through him immediately when he offered a ride on the Red Force. Luckily, an allied ship under them was also there and had the means and room to carry Buggy's accidentally-acquired men, women and others who sworn fealty to him. With strict orders from Buggy to mind their manners and to assist where they could, deferring to the ship's crew, they were set up there by majority. Few remained on the Red Force specifically.
Once away from prying, assessing, worshipping eyes, Buggy drops a few of the many masks he wears. He sags a little, moving to squeeze his eyes shut, pressing his palms over his eyes and grimacing as he tries to shift his weight.
A warm, calloused hand presses over his eyes. Buggy inhales shakily, letting his own hands move so Shanks could block the light from his gaze. He leaned into the touch.
"Hey," the redhead says softly, "Hongo wants to check you over. Do you want my room or the medbay?"
A strangled noise, not unlike a drowning cat, escapes the clown's mouth. Shanks shuffles closer, not touching, but close enough for his body heat to be felt.
"Okay," he breathes, "Okay, I've got you, Bugs..."
Buggy lets himself be led by his best friend, his Red, his Shanks, docile and blinded and dizzy. At some point he can Feel two people join them, and Shanks's voice, carefully soft and quiet and familiar, guides him along with gentle murmurs of "step in two, yeah, there you go"s and "duck your head for me, perfect"s.
At one point while stepping down the stairs, Buggy's right knee gives a sharp and deafening CRACK, white-hot-ice-blue pain shooting up and down his leg and hip. He chokes on it, body trying to split, to get away from the pain, and he teeters, teeth grit and breath stolen. A warm chest at his back steadies him, and Buggy gags at the disoriented agony. Shanks is oozing worry and anxiety, Hongo is nearly vibrating, Buggy is trying to keep from just falling to pieces on the floor- so Benn just rubs the blue haired pirate's shoulder. "It's alright," he soothes softly, gently, baritone warm and assuring. "I'm going to pick you up, alright? It's alright, I carry Cap over there all the time when he gets drunk as a skunk. Can I touch you?"
Buggy barely manages a nod, and he's only mildly ashamed of how tightly he clings when Benn lifts him so carefully, so kindly, breathing through the bubbles in his eyes and throat, the electricity in his veins and nerves. The soft pop-clicks of his body splitting and reconnecting filled the air.
They take Buggy to Shanks's room, hoping it would be less stressful. The preliminary check could be done with the generic things Hongo can grab and bring along, anything requiring something more severe would need preparation anyway, and it would take time to be able to execute safely. It was a hefty choice, but one none involved with could regret when Buggy, still coiled tightly and far too pale, clung tightly to Shanks's wrist, hand still over his eyes, like it was the only thing keeping him sane. Bad blood aside, he really was rather attached.
Maneuvering was tedious but nobody breathed a hint of complaint, not even Benn when Shanks immediately climbed into his own bed, gesturing to have the other captain given to him.
Hongo's initial assessment had him pursing his lips and breathing through fury, had Benn aching for a cigarette and Shanks visibly counting aloud to avoid an explosion of his Haki. Buggy was semi coherent through it all.
The next day, Hongo strictly tells Buggy to rest Or Else, to Especially Not Climb Or Run, to minimize walking as well. The stress fractures alone were bad, but the inflammation, the swelling, the EVERYTHING had his nerves on edge. Buggy, knowing not to question a medical professional, concedes. Shanks capitalizes on the Buggy Time, and he whines and complains the whole time he has to be away from his Bugaboo.
Galdino is a little skeptical, especially given how his own injuries were deemed not as severe. Buggy's embarrassed by the princess treatment, as Shanks calls it ((as Roger once called it when they were young and Buggy's flare ups really began in full, to Crocus's endless worry and frantic searches)). Meeting up with the Big Top yields answers yet brews more questions in turn as the other's immediately touch base with Hongo while some others scurry off once updated to 'grab the goods', only to return with a forearm crutch and colorful ace wraps.
It's a wild ride start to finish and Galdino is left with many, MANY questions, the other's as well, but Buggy's crew as well as Shanks's set them straight pretty quickly. After all, someone else's medical records are not your business and you have no right to pass judgement on someone's use of aids.
It's normalized for people in the Buggy Pirates to use different mobility aids, to see people out and about with things that they can use to better their quality of life and express themselves therewith.
Buggy's pillow case outfit is a play on that - on using his Devil Fruit for movement and ease of motion, for hiding his braves or wraps and for the additional bonus of playing on the perceptions of others.
Mihawk and Crocodile, once they join, are not privy to what is beneath the onesie. The former can, however, tell on occasion when Buggy's having a bad flare up, though not why.
It's only after Buggy tells them, either by choice or circumstantial events, the truth that they put together these pieces.
And from there? Well, neither of them are particularly Typical themselves. Mihawk has a nerve disorder which gives him difficulty with feeling pain. Crocodile is an amputee. They're not about to judge for any of that. They will however judge Buggy's tendency of pushing himself too far too frequently.
Just. Chronically ill/disabled Buggy. I love himmmm

welcome to my 1 million turnabout bigtop headcanons
russell berry:
actual personality description because in the game he just kind of dies. stoic, generally serious man. bit of a blank slate to talk to. secretly TERRIFIED of confrontation, will do just about anything he can to avoid every problem in his life. this is not to be confused with avoiding responsibility, because he is the bossiest motherfucker around besides maybe trilo. runs the circus with an iron fist. no problems to fix if you never let them happen in the first place!
AUTISM
british weirdo
actually pretty connected in the entertainment industry
when he’s not wearing a suit he usually wears sweaters
takes first impressions so so seriously
DEAD wife that hes still not over
her death is unrelated to the circus because i think he wouldve shut that down in one singular second if it was
the circus was a passion project of her and moe’s, but russell was the only one competent enough with money and people that he ended up basically running it. neither of them wanted to do the technicalities
he wont consider his sexuality because he only loves his dead wife
moe:
nickname comes from highschool and the shit he used to get into, fabricated an identity to some stranger after vandalizing their house and it just stuck
took “class clown” a little too seriously
used to be an actual stand up comedian but being a party clown is just wayyyy easier
manchild. very silly and not serious all the time. completely aware of it by the way and encourages whimsy in the world
most insufferable case of hyperactive ADHD in the world
cannot sit normally anywhere ever
has many little odd hobbies
owns a bunch of really stupid graphic/text tshirts that do not apply to him in the slightest
likes to carry around those little plastic toys with the metal ball and a maze that u tilt around to solve. also those little water games where u push the button to try and get the rings on the hook. do u guys know what im talking about
can and will juggle any 3 items he can get his hands on
clings to russell all the time. follows him around. absolutely hates being alone so russell is his solution
gay as fuck for russell berry. this is not a secret. at all.
helped russell out with regina quite a bit, esp after his wife died
fine at confrontation unless it is of his own emotional issues
max galactia’s #1 hater
regina berry:
AUTISM
british loser too but fakes a french accent because it’s cuter and more posh
very good at imitating accents!
absolutely not mentally 16. very ditzy and carefree and childish
is not at all prepared for genuine reality because she was raised and surrounded her entire life by the members of the circus
very athletic!
has personalities for each of her animals and talks to/treats them like people
her mom died when she was 6, this is where her belief of dead people being stars comes from because russell genuinely could not tell her the truth
also why she wasn’t that upset about her lion or bat
closest to acro in the circus and still considers them to be best friends despite acro genuinely despising her
automatically assumes everyone is her friend unless they do or say something that shows otherwise
moe calls her “tiger” because she got facepaint as a kid and kept it on for days while acting like a tiger
amazing gift-giver
crow girl. drawn to anything and everything sparkly
enjoys those really elaborate lego sets
ben/trilo:
ft my backstory headcanon for how he entered the circus because its never established
AUTISM
trilo is ben’s non-loser persona essentially
ben has had severe social anxiety since childhood
^ where the stutter comes from
met moe as a teenager at his little sisters birthday party, was genuinely curious about how he can just go up on a stage in such a ridiculous get-up. talk to people. be social. he did not get it
when russell started the circus, he wanted to join and gtfo from his house
probably the neglected child to his little sister i think
joined the circus shortly after regina was born and was kind of the de facto babysitter so he considers regina his actual little sister (LIKE A NORMAL PERSON.)
trilo was created for regina when she was born. ben was kind of like a babysitter to her and made up a gag with this puppet and slapstick comedy to keep baby regina entertained. the whole circus loved it and trilo stuck!
what was once a coping mechanism became a depedancy. the only people he can speak to without trilo are the circus members
because he and the circus treats trilo like a completely separate being for his act and for regina, he never worked up the nerve to talk to people. there was no practice there because trilo isn’t him
doesn’t absolutely despise max because max is essentially like if moe was less obnoxious. flamboyant and outgoing and actually helpful!
great impressionist
max galactica:
entered the entertainment industry as a teenager after being scouted in high-school
genuinely does not give two shits about what other people think about him because he knows theyre all wrong. self-centered asshole
BAAAD anger issues. frequently smashes plates over dinner arguments. raises his voice quickly
only person spared from his eternal rage is regina berry
not getting his way makes him like genuinely upset
loves to threaten to quit to make everyone do what he wants
probably some sort of personality disorder
in a beautiful world he goes to therapy
he does actually genuinely want them to all be better performers but he’s literally terrible at showing it LMAO
lover of really obnoxious and clearly fabricated reality TV
massive drama whore. gossiper like no other.
the worst cook you’ve ever met in your life
drag queen!
into loser men (benjamin woodman)
acro/ken:
AUTISM
would both kill and die for every single member of the circus
including regina. not the kind of person to ever hold such a deep grudge so this is a first for him and he has very mixed feelings about it all
he gets physical therapy and his life is better ♥️
very emotional but great at regulating his feelings and self reflection. also great poker face!
terrible at accepting anyones act of kindness no matter how big or small. feels like he always has to pay everything back
tends to hide himself away if he is genuinely upset enough to the point of not being able to hide it
extremely observant person. in both behaviors and physical settings. always knows what to look for and what is out of place
very blunt but not. rude. just sort of speaks his thoughts and feelings. either honest about what he feels or dead silent
terrible liar
“will listen to anything” music kind of guy
actually quite prideful but like. in a healthy way.
tanktop wearer duh this we know but just generally a hater towards long sleeved shirts
decent artist! fun little hobby for him

Eddie Munson x fem metalhead cheerleader
Summary: Based on this - how Eddie met his not so typical cheerleader girlfriend and a little exploration of their relationship.
Content warning: 18+ content minors DNI, smoking, underage drinking, drug use, swearing, flirting, smut.
Author's note: Happy Valentines Day! Every year I say I hate it and then get a little sad when I don't get a card or something little so….here is my gift to you because I love you all! This chapter also comes with a kiss on the forehead for you 😘
Tumblr media
Chapter 1
Chapter 2
Chapter 3
Chapter 4
Chapter 5
Chapter 6
Tumblr media
Chapter 7
It had been 2 months since Eddie had ended things. 2 months since you had stopped speaking to him, even glancing his way. You'd stopped going to Hellfire, stopped going to The Hideout and you'd even gone as far as to request your seat be changed in Ms O'Donnell's class, meaning you now sat on the far side of the room, pretty much as far as you could get from him. No more whispered exchanges whilst Ms O'Donnell's back was turned, no more quick kisses at your locker between classes, no more smiles across the cafeteria, nothing. There was nothing now.
The guys in Hellfire knew something had to have happened, but weren't exactly sure what. Eddie had changed personalities overnight, now sullen and moody, quick to anger and snap as opposed to his usual clowning around, all lovesick and dopey and full of jokes. Now, honestly, he was kind of depressing to be around.
You were no better off. The cheer squad weren't exactly your friends before, and now you didn't really have anyone to turn to. You got along with everyone, sure, but since Eddie had broken your heart you had become so withdrawn and quiet, your coach had to step in and make sure everything was okay.
Of course it was the usual response that "boys come and go, honey, it's just a high school crush" which made you want to roll your eyes right out of your goddamn head. Your mood fluctuated from sad, to angry, to sad again, and you'd lost count of how many times you'd cried yourself to sleep over the last 2 months, clutching at Eddie's old Dio shirt he'd given you to sleep in a few weeks into your relationship, but never asked for it back. It very, very faintly smelled of him still and honestly it was the only thing keeping you from completely losing it.
Despite how much he had hurt you, and how angry you got at times, it didn't mean your feelings for Eddie had completely disappeared. Of course you still loved him. You had fallen hard and fast for him and that wasn't just going to go away. Ignoring him at school was one of the hardest things you've ever done, but you knew it would eventually ease your pain.
Rumours swirled around the school, as they do. First it was you had come to your senses and dumped the freak, then it was because Eddie had tried to sacrifice you to Satan and scared you off. But the newest one was that Eddie was screwing a girl in the next town over, and you had found out. Turns out somebody had caught a glimpse of the nude Polaroid falling out of Eddie's locker, not realising it was actually you, and the rumour swelled from there.
That damn Polaroid. It had ruined everything. You don't even know where it had come from, any nudes you'd taken of yourself were safely secured in your bedroom, and any nudes anyone else had ever taken of you were destroyed upon breaking up, you'd made sure of that.
But this particular photo...you'd been racking your brain for weeks trying to think how someone could have gotten a hold of it. It was one you'd kept in your room, you knew it was because of the little star you'd marked them all with; you were very conscious of keeping your nudes safe.
Besides, you'd only ever had 2 boyfriends that you'd taken these pictures for, and you'd not even given them to 1 of them. You'd never taken them for any fuck buddies or one time flings, despite being asked. And you rarely ever brought those dudes into your bedroom, except for-
Your heart pounds, and you start to shake.
That motherfucker.

Eddie sighed as he pulled up to Chrissy Cunningham's mansion the following Friday night. He could hear the music already thumping away; Chrissy's parents had gone out of town for the weekend so of course, Eddie had been called upon to deal. He fucking hated these things, especially now that he didn't have you by his side. He swallowed hard.
He fucking missed you.
He missed you so much it hurt. Now it had been nearly 3 months since he'd found that photo, since he'd ended things, and he still couldn't get your face out of his head. The way you'd looked at him, the way your voice wobbled and cracked with emotion, and the way you'd hissed at him with a venom he had never, ever imagined you spitting at him.
You hated him now. You didn't even look at him in school, stopped coming to Hellfire, stopped parking your car next to his van, stopped it all.
Was that because you were guilty? Pissed at him because he'd called you out? Or...maybe, just maybe, he'd made a mistake.
Eddie kicked himself mentally every time he thought about it. He let his emotions get the best of him, like always, only this time he'd let the rage take over. That had only ever happened once before and it ended in a broken hand, the other guy's broken jaw and Chief Hopper hauling him into a cell, letting him rot there overnight before Wayne came to bail him out the next morning. Eddie had never felt so ashamed as he did when his uncle had looked at him with that sad, disappointed expression. Wayne never said it, but Eddie knew exactly what he was thinking- he was following in his father's footsteps.
He'd sworn to himself after that that he would never let his rage take over again.
And then you came along, he fell head over heels like never before and when his brain had told him you were definitely cheating on him, that he wasn't worthy of you, that you couldn't possibly love him, and when he read that stupid fucking note that all but, in his mind, confirmed his fears he just lost control.
And now you were gone.
Except you weren't gone, because there you were, walking up Chrissy's front path with a couple of the other cheerleaders, looking as perfect as ever, in leather pants and a cropped Bon Jovi shirt, sticking out like a sore thumb amongst the other party goers dressed in...well, color. Eddie watched as a group of football players met their girlfriends, pulling them into sloppy drunken kisses and grabbing their asses, making the girls squeal and giggle. One football player - was it Johnson? - approaches you with a predatory look in his eye and Eddie doesn't realise he's holding in a breath until he releases it when you completely blank Johnson, shoving past him and into Chrissy's house.
This was going to be a long night.
**
You'd lost count of how many beers you'd drank and how many shots you'd thrown back. And honestly, you didn't fucking care.
You'd seen Eddie's van parked up down the street when you'd arrived; of course he'd be here. He was always expected to show at these parties - it's where he'd make most of his money. The minute you'd seen it, that's when you decided you were going to get absolutely shit wrecked.
That and when Johnson had had the balls to approach you, grinning like the fucking cat who stole one of your nude photos to sabotage your relationship.
You'd kept your cool, you had to. Your spot on the squad couldn't take another fight, or scandal. You had to swallow your anger towards Johnson, that regretful summer fling from last year, and just get on with it.
So of course, you chose to drink. And dance. And smoke. All on your own of course. You know everyone is looking at you, but you couldn't give two shits if you tried.
You stumble out into the backyard, and spot Eddie dealing at the far end of the yard. Fuck it, you think, you want to just let go, and you knew Eddie had the good shit. You inhale and walk over to Eddie as a group of girls leave him. He looks you up and down, concerned.
"Y/N?" He sounds almost afraid.
"Munson." You say curtly and he winces. "Got any pre-rolled?"
"Y/N, I don't think you should be smoking-"
"And I don't think you should be acting like my goddamn boyfriend, Munson, when you made it pretty clear 3 months ago that you thought I was cheating slut!" You snap. Eddie's jaw clenches.
"I'm not selling to you, Y/N. You're wasted."
"And so is everyone else here!" You gesture around, exaggerated by the alcohol. "Don't act all caring now, Munson. Just...don't."
"Fine." He grits out, giving you the pre-rolled joint from behind his ear. You hand him a $20, but he pushes your hand away. "Just take it."
You sigh. "Jesus, look, just take the damn money, okay? I don't expect girlfriend privileges anymore."
"I don't want your fucking money, okay? Just take the goddamn joint, Y/N, I'm just trying to be nice!"
"Well don't!" You yell, a few people glancing over as a silence falls over them. "You broke my heart, Eddie, you don't get to be fucking nice! You never even once gave me a chance to explain-"
"What was there to explain?!" Eddie yells back, taking you by surprise. "It was pretty fucking crystal clear to me, Y/N! And you weren't the only one who had their fucking heart broken, I loved you!"
You freeze, your breathing turning shaky and you blinked rapidly, tears threatening to spill over. You throw the joint at him and turn on your heel, storming back into the house.
"Getting tired of that right hand yet, freak?" A smug voice makes Eddie turn around. He comes face to face with Aaron Johnson, another one of Anderson's idiotic companions. Eddie rolls his eyes.
"You buying or not?" He replies, and Johnson smirks, leaning against a tree.
"You know, if it wasn't for Y/N's shitty taste in music, I probably would have carried on hitting that. She's so fucking hot but I can't be seen with someone who dresses like a satanist, wearing all that demonic shit. My mom would have disowned me. But, fuck, that pussy's second to none, right Munson?"
Eddie's jaw clenches.
"And that body, fuck, it's insane. Glad I found her secret stash of pics and took a little reminder for myself. Came in handy more than a few times." Johnson grins and Eddie's stomach drops. "Y'see, she fucked with our team, freak. Got Anderson kicked off when we were a sure win for the championship, I could've gotten a fucking scholarship. And thanks to her, that ain't happening. So, I just had to let you know what a stupid little slut she is, Munson. I did you a favour."
"You." Eddie grits out. "You did this."
"I did her, too. She really is a freak in the sack, isn't she? Think she's drunk enough to let me fu-"
Eddie's fist connects with Johnson's cheek before he can even finish his sentence. Johnson staggers back in suprise, before returning a blow to Eddie's stomach, and the two begin to brawl, much to the delight of the onlookers in the yard. The news travels fast throughout Chrissy's house.
"Holy shit! Johnson's fighting the freak!" A voice yells from the kitchen, and your head snaps up from the beer you were nursing on the couch in the living room.
You push through the crowd that are now chanting 'fight, fight, fight!' and eventually get outside to the chaotic scene of Eddie and Johnson rolling around on the floor beating the piss out of each other, blood splattering the patio.
"Eddie!" You scream out as he rolls on top of Johnson, driving his fist into his face. He doesn't hear you, blinded by rage. It scares you to see him like this, so, so angry and vicious. Even though he broke your heart, you still cared for him and hated the way his beautiful face was bruised and bloody and curled into a snarl. You run over and grab his arm before he can drive it down again and pull him off of Johnson, but he pulls away from you and dives towards him again. Johnson is a better fighter than Anderson for sure, and immediately pins Eddie back on the ground. "Get the fuck off of him, Aaron!"
"How'd you like the little gift I left your boyfriend, Y/N?!" Johnson bellows, laughing maniacally as you shove him off of Eddie, who coughs and spits out blood onto the patio. "Should have thought twice before you fucked with the team!"
"This is all because of your fucking high school football career?!" You shriek. "Oh my god, grow up! If Anderson wasn't such a pig maybe he'd still be on the goddamn team!"
Johnson gets off of a groaning Eddie, staggering slightly as he grins at you.
"He knows what an easy little slut you are, Y/N, can you really blame him for trying? If you'll let this freak stick his dick in you, you're gonna let anyone do it."
"At least I knew when his dick was in me, which is more than I can say about yours, Johnson." You bite back, making several of the onlookers gasp and giggle. Johnson looks visibly embarrassed and enraged. "I only give my nudes to guys with dicks bigger than 3 inches, you fucking Neanderthal."
Johnson takes a step towards you, but he's quickly restrained by two of his buddies. The wail of police sirens and flashing lights a few streets over is enough for the crowd to disperse; one of the neighbours must have called and reported the party. "Shit," you hiss, helping Eddie up off of the floor and pushing your way out of the panicked crowd. "Give me your keys."
"You...you can't fucking drive, you’re wasted." Eddie grumbles.
"Yeah? Well I bet I can drive better than you can with a busted eye, Munson, so unless you want another run in with Hopper, give me your damn keys."
Eddie sighs and places them into your hand. You wince at the sight of his raw, bloody knuckles.
You help him to the van and buckle yourself in to the driver's seat. "You're gonna need to direct me Mr Here's Another Excuse For You Not To Come To My Place."
Eddie sighs again.
"It's…Forest Hills Trailer Park, you know it?" You nod. Eddie looked almost ashamed. "Of course you do, Hawkins' best trailer trash, drug addicts and drunks all in one spot, I'm surprised they don't charge at the gate for parents to just bring their kids in and show them how they shouldn't end up like this. Like a damn museum exhibit." Eddie mumbles bitterly. You frown, doing your best to concentrate on driving straight.
"Eddie-"
"It's left here."
The 15 minute drive was silent, not even the radio playing, with intermittent grunts or hisses of pain from Eddie. When you arrive at his trailer, you help him out of the van and to the door, unlocking with his keys. You sit him on the small couch.
"Got any frozen peas?" You ask, looking around the trailer at the small kitchen.
"My uncle keeps ice packs just for this very reason. Second drawer."
You follow his instructions and retrieve one, wrapping it in a dish cloth and handing it to him.
"Keep that on your eye. Where's your first aid stuff?"
Eddie places the ice pack on his eye. "Bathroom cabinet, down the hall on your right, but, Y/N you don't-"
But you ignore him and find your way to the small bathroom. Your tummy flutters as you pass by what is obviously Eddie's bedroom, getting a waft of that delicious Eddie smell. You enter the small bathroom and dig in the cabinet and find an old bottle of peroxide, Neosporin, cotton pads and bandaids. You also find a washcloth, soaking it in cold water and squeezing out the excess water. You go back out into the living room and kneel in front of Eddie.
"Chin up." You instruct, and he does, wincing as you gently rub at the dried blood on his face, getting rid of the worst of it before you soak a cotton pad in peroxide. "This is gonna sting."
Eddie sucks in a breath as you dab at the cut on his cheek. "Ow, fuck."
"Told you." You clean it as gently as possible before popping some Neosporin on it and a band aid. You repeat the process on the cut his forehead, lip, chin and his knuckles. “Didnt think you were a fighter, Munson.”
“Oh, I’m Munson again now?” Eddie huffs and you roll your eyes, placing the last bandaid on his knuckle. “Thanks…”
“No problem, it was kind of my fault you got in a fight. I should have realised sooner that it was him.”
Eddie clears his throat.
“Yeah, listen, about that…I’m sorry, Y/N. I should have let you explain. I guess I was just pissed at the thought of you having fucked someone else, even if it was before me.”
“Yeah, you should have let me explain.” you say, your voice a little sharp. Eddie avoids your eyes. “It’s fine, what’s done is done, but…thanks for defending my honour.”
“Just returning the favour, sweetheart. Couldn't have you beating the shit out of another jock, your place on the squad would have been toast."
"Yeah well…" you shrug, stifling a yawn. You glance at the clock on the wall. "Jesus, when did it get to be 3am?!"
"Well you lost about 5 hours getting wasted. I'm suprised you got us back without landing us in a ditch." Eddie smirked and you shoved him.
"I guess the adrenaline sobered me up." You sigh. "I gotta stop going to these parties, especially when you're there. You're the problem here."
"Ain't nothing new there. Go, take my bed, you need to sleep."
"But what about you, Eddie? You're injured, I cant kick you out of your own bed. I can crash on the couch."
Eddie snorts. "Yeah, I'm sure my uncle would appreciate you stealing his spot when he gets in from his night shift in a couple hours. Take my bed, I'll sleep on the floor."
You roll your eyes. You forgot how stubborn he could be.
"Okay fine but um, can I borrow some clothes? Leather pants aren't exactly the comfiest thing to sleep in."
"Sure, come on princess." Eddie leads you to his bedroom, rifling through his messy drawers before handing you a shirt and some boxers. "You can, uh, change in the bathroom."
"Why? Not like you haven't seen it all before." You shrug, stripping off your shirt and pants, standing in Eddie's room in your bra and panties, modesty gone thanks to the alcohol still lingering in your system . Eddie swallows hard, looking away. He doesn't look back at you until you clear your throat. His heart hammers in his chest as he takes in the sight of you in his favourite Metallica shirt and some of his comfiest boxers, taking your hair down out of the band it had been tied up with. You smile at him softly. "You wore this shirt to my house the first time."
"You wore it too," he grins, wincing as his lip screams at him.
"Yeah for like an hour, you insisted on getting me naked again." You giggle, cheeks flushing.
"I am but a man, sweetheart." Eddie holds his hands up in admittance. He quickly straightens up his bedsheets before gesturing for you to climb in. You gingerly do so, part of you so sad that it's under these circumstances that you're in Eddie's bed for the first time, and part of you elated at being surrounded by everything Eddie. You watch Eddie take off his jeans and shirt, gathering a couple of spare blankets and pillows to lay out on the floor of his cramped but cozy room. Once he's readied his bed, he flicks off the light, and a silence falls over the two of you as you both settle into your respective beds.
Your stomach churns with nerves; you hadn't been near him for so long and now he was so close you could touch him, but you couldn't touch him. It was torture and your mouth spoke before your brain could catch up.
"Eddie?"
"Mm?"
"I miss you." You whisper into the darkness. You're not even sure he heard you until you felt his hand, his non busted hand, blindly reach up and feel around for yours. His fingers link with yours and his thumb brushes over your knuckles.
"I'm right here."
