#I STILL believe that Q had gotten into some serious

[stellarred]

INNER VOICE

What we all heard Q say:

What Q was really thinking:

"Damn! It's been too long! I tried, Picard! (sobbing) I tried to see you! I t-tried to get to you...

But, I was trapped. They kept me away from you...

But, I got away from them. I'm much much too clever.

It's been so long, my love.

You...are still as beautiful as the moment we first met.

Oh...how I wish I could've been there for you.

I always thought of you.

Dreamt of you.

Dreamt of us, Jean-Luc."

What we all heard Q say next:

What Q really thought at this moment or later:

"I'm not letting go of him.

Not this time. Or ever."

My fellow Qcard and Trek friends, something really bad HAD to have happened to Q to cause him to return to Picard's life so late AND for him to not even know just how much Picard had aged.

For Q to be essentially caught off-guard by Picard's aged appearance like that is just crazy nuts.

For Q to have to rely on his IMAGINATION to have an idea of how Picard looked after so many years is just plain insanity.

Something prevented Q from going back to Picard.

With as much as that entity was so totally in love with Picard, there's really no rhyme or reason why he wouldn't have come back.

This scene hints at a complete and radical departure from Q's previous pattern of behavior. This is not what Q does. That's not Q.

I will shout this from the rooftops again: It was NOT by Q's choice.

--And if it turns out that I'm wrong about this and JDL or Pat Stew prove me wrong, okay. I will eat my laptop with a knife and fork. And lots of dressing.

Masterlist

“You were so right, me and Evan got along so well. He’s great. We’re going on another date too.” 

Quinn felt sick to his stomach. Not only had your friendship dwindled out of nowhere, but now you’re with someone else. Worst of all there was no explanation to why you pulled away. Quinn racked his brain for any reason why you would stop hanging out with him. 

Now he had to watch you give your attention to someone else. He was so jealous of this random guy. Quinn wondered what made Evan better than him? All he knew was that the bright smile and light blush you seemed to always have was for some other guy now. 

A couple of weeks passed and Quinn barely spends time with the team outside of practice and chooses to spend his time going through old photos and videos of the two of you or watching anything you’ve ever suggested to him. He’s halfway through one of your favorite movies when there’s a knock on his door. His heart flutters hoping it's you, but is immediately let down when he realizes that it's Elias and Brock at his door.

“What do you want,” He asks begrudgingly, leaving the door open as he returns to his couch.

“We wanted to make sure that you’re alive,” Elias said.

“Well now you know bye,” Quinn quips at them.

“Dude something is up with you and we’re not leaving until we find out,” Brock said.

“Is this about Y/N?” Elias asked.

“Fine yeah it’s about Y/N. I just really miss her,” Quinn admits after taking a deep breath.

“We used to talk almost everyday and that all stopped on the last road trip and now she’s seeing that new guy. I was finally going to ask her out and she just shut down.”

“Wait you were? You told me you didn’t see her that way and she overheard,” Elias says confused.

“She heard me? Why didn’t you say anything?” Quinn asks as his heart shatters all over again. The last thing he wanted to do was hurt you.

“She was so upset and I didn’t think I could change your mind. She had been pinning after you for months and you never did anything, so I just believed you,” Elias said with a shrug.

“I didn’t think she felt the same way so I was just putting my feelings aside because I cared more about our friendship,” Quinn says, putting his head in his hands. “I think I royally fucked up.”

“Maybe not, Y/N and Evan don’t seem super serious yet. You might be able to wiggle your way back in with her,” Elias says sitting down with Quinn.

“I don’t even know where to start.”

“Maybe bring her coffee? Start there and see what happens,” Brock suggests and Quinn just nods making a game plan to get his girl back.

The next morning he gets up early for practice to go pick up your coffee from the cafe you always go to. He knew where to go because the cafe printed their logo on their cups and he had plenty of time to take note of it. As he walked in he immediately recognized your silhouette waiting in line.

“Looks like you beat me to it today,” Quinn says walking up to you in line.

“Beat me to what?” You ask confused why after not talking to each other for a month he decided to come to your cafe.

“I was going to bring you coffee today,” He says awkwardly with a small smile on his face.

“Oh well you can still pay if you want,” You suggest as a joke.

“Yeah I guess that’s true,” Quinn says, hoping a conversation would start on its own. After a minute of silence he gives in and asks, “So what’s new with you I feel like we haven’t really talked that much recently.”

“Nothing much, you know filming you guys all day,” You say wondering if you should mention Evan. It’s still so new and you don’t know if it's going to work out, but he makes you so happy.

“I actually just started seeing this guy. His name is Evan, I think you would like him actually, he's really nice,” You say, deciding to rip off the bandaid.

Quinn knew he wouldn’t like Evan because he was getting with the girl of his dreams.

“Yeah maybe you should bring him out with us after a game or something. I'd love to meet him,” Quinn says kicking himself because that’s the last thing he wants, but anything to get back in your good graces. 

You give him a smile at his comment thinking of what to say next. Luckily for you the barista calls for you two to order. And just like you suggested, Quinn paid. He offers you a ride to the arena before you even start walking back to the metro station to get to work.

You both sit in silence trying to think of anything to talk about. You finally start the conversation by mentioning that an author you had recommended to him a while ago put out a new book and how excited you were to pick it up. 

Just like that the two of you fell back into conversation like you hadn’t missed a beat. You arrive at the arena way quicker than you thought you would and almost don’t want to get out of the car and leave Quinn again. You walk inside and as you are about to separate, but Quinn stops you.

“Would you like to go stop at a bookstore after work today to pick up that book? I could take you home after so you don’t have to take the metro home,” He asks hoping you would say yes.

Yeah that would be really nice. I’ve really missed hanging out with you,” You say with a smile and leaving to go get your work started.

“What’s got you smiling like that? Evan?” Megan, your coworker, asks jokingly.

“Actually no I ran into Quinn this morning when I was getting my coffee and we just talked for a while. Now we’re hanging out after work,” you say, taking a sip of coffee. Hoping to hide your smile behind your cup.

“Wait, really I thought you two were going to avoid each other forever.”

“Well I guess not. He said he was going there to pick up my coffee which was really sweet of him.”

“Oh he’s so into you,” Megan says sitting back in her chair. 

“No he’s not, why would you say that?”

“Think about it, he stops talking to you right after you start seeing Evan and out of nowhere he’s doing all of these nice things for you?” 

You stop and think about it, but there’s no way he told Elias that he could never see you that way. You brush it off and get on with your day. You didn’t have to shoot any content today so you didn’t see any of the guys during their practice, but Quinn was waiting for you after work to take you to go find your book.

You try not to think about what Megan said to you today, pushing it to the back of your mind. Once the two of you get to the bookstore you feel like a kid in a candy store showing Quinn all of the books you had on your reading list but haven’t gotten yet. Without you paying attention he grabbed a basket and started throwing them in there to pay for them himself.

He finally leads you up to the counter and insists on paying for all of the books he grabbed for you. You try to convince him that he didn’t need to but you were cut off by the clerk.

“Girl just let your cute boyfriend pay for your books. That’s what I would do.” You try to deny the accusation from this random teenager, but before you could they were announcing the total and Quinn was inserting his card. He grabbed the bag and walked you back out to the car.

“Sorry if what they said was weird, but just think of it as a payback for all of those coffees you got me,” Quinn said, trying to make you feel better.

“No it’s fine I think it’s kinda funny actually.” You say finally realizing you were there for several hours and were too tired to make dinner.

“I think I’m just going to order take-out for dinner if you want to keep hanging out at my place,” You say with a blush creeping up your cheeks.

“Yeah that’d be great,” Quinn says as you start ordering. He stops at the restaurant while you run in to pick it up. He decides to text Elias and Brock an update and that he’ll tell them more later. 

The drive to your apartment was filled with playful banter about what you should watch and Quinn just watches you as the streetlights illuminate your face. The two of you finally arrive and settle on a new movie you just saw. It really didn’t take much convincing for him to give in; he just wanted to push your buttons a little bit.

Later, they are surrounded by take out tins and you’re starting to drift off. At some point during the movie your head ended up on Quinn’s shoulder and you started to doze off. Quinn wasn’t complaining, but felt like it was time for him to go as the credits started to roll.

“Hey Y/n/n wake up,” He says quietly as you groan and cuddle into him further. “Y/n/n you have to get up-the movie’s over.”

When there’s no sign of you moving he decides to just pick you up and bring you to your bed. Thinking you’re asleep he decides to give you a “friendly” kiss on your forehead and says goodnight. You feel the butterflies that you thought were now reserved for Evan coming back all over again. Quinn grabs the trash from the takeout and sees himself out, and can’t seem to wipe the smile off his face. On his way home he decides to call Elias.

“Elias I’m in so deep I don’t know what to do,” Quinn says concerned because he doesn’t want to break you and Evan up and ruin something else for you.

“Wait what happened?” Elias asked confused because all Quinn had told him was that they were heading back to her place.

“I kissed her-” Quinn said before Elias cut him off.

“You what? You move fast, man.”

“Well I kind of kissed her. She fell asleep on my shoulder and wouldn’t move so I carried her back to her room and then I kissed her forehead. Now I’m going home,” Quinn says still with a deep smile on his face. “I just don’t know what to do.”

“I guess act like nothing happened. She was asleep right? Just leave it be for now and still hang out with her. I can talk to her and see what’s going on with Evan and then you can go from there.”

“Yeah good point thanks Elias, I’ll see you later.”

The next day you walk into work reminiscing last night with Quinn hoping you could relive it again soon. Silly crush aside, you missed your best friend and wanted things to go back to normal. 

Elias practically corners you just to ask questions about Quinn.

“Quinn told me you two hung out last night, so you aren’t ignoring him anymore?”

“I was never ignoring him I just was busy,” You say trying to move around him to get to his office.

“Yeah alright. Anyways, how is it going with Ethan?” Elias asks, teasing you.

“Evan is great. I think I might invite him to a game or something soon,” You say, rolling your eyes.

“Oh wait, really?” Elias asks as you start to walk away. “For the record I think that would be a great idea. Maybe next week against Winnipeg?”

“Yeah I’ll have to ask him. Now if you will excuse me I have to go to my desk.” You say finally walking away. 

You set your things down and open your computer and Megan starts questioning you about your evening with Quinn.

“It really wasn’t anything crazy. We just went to the bookstore where he bought all of them for me and then we went back to my place and got dinner,” You tell her leaving out the fact that he brought you to your bed and kissed you goodnight.

“The fact that he bought all of your books is enough to tell me that he’s into you. I know you had a long list you were slowly buying for yourself.” Megan may have set you up with Evan but she wasn’t blind to how much Quinn was into you and vice versa. 

“I’m thinking of inviting Evan to a game. What do you think?” You ask to change the subject.

“I think it would be a good idea if you weren’t afraid of what your work husband would do,” Megan says, teasing you.

“I- what are you talking about,” You ask, hiding your blush.

“Y/N you can pretend to be oblivious, but Quinn really likes you and you should think about his reaction to having your new boyfriend at a game.”

“Who even knows if Evan would want to go,” You say before locking in on your work for the day.

You had already made plans to go out with Evan later that night so you figured it would be the best time to ask him then. You go home and get ready for your date thinking about what Megan said to you earlier in the day. 

Soon enough you leave to go meet Evan at some new restaurant you would never pick out because it was too fancy for your taste. He greets you with a kiss to your cheek asking you how your day was.

“It was good I just had to deal with Megan and Elias berating me all day,” You say, aiming to leave the questions about Quinn out.

“Why would they do that?”

“Oh I was just thinking about inviting you to a game soon and they were just making fun of me,” You say sheepishly.

“That would be so cool! Would you be able to hang out with me or would it be like a wag situation where I just watch you do your magic,” Evan says with a chuckle as you start to look over the menu.

“I could probably get the night off and sit with you. Do you think you’d be free for the game next Saturday against the Jets?”

“Yeah that would be great! I’m looking forward to it!” He says closing his menu to signal he’s ready to order.

You continue to hang out with both Quinn and Evan, but choose not to tell Quinn about your invite for Evan to come to the upcoming game.

Saturday’s game finally rolls around and Quinn notices your absence during the warmups. You usually can be found on the bench shooting content but tonight it’s Megan in your place. 

“Hey Petey do you know where Y/N is tonight?” Quinn asks hoping Elias might have some insight.

“Yeah she’s in the crowd tonight with Evan,” Elias says pointing towards Y/N and Evan in their seats.

Quinn’s heart drops. You had mentioned that you were thinking about inviting Evan but didn’t think it would be so soon. He tries to forget that you brought your boyfriend to the game, but he can’t forget the fact that you’re wearing his jersey. He can’t help but feel a fire ignite when Evan leans in to say something to you. The sense of jealousy does not go away, but there is a sense of pride knowing his name is the one on your back.

You spot Quinn looking at the two of you and give a shy wave like you had been caught. Evan leaves to go grab some water and you are stuck worrying about what Quinn is thinking about you bringing Evan. 

Honestly since you started hanging out with Quinn again you just felt like your heart wasn’t in it with Evan anymore. You were planning on ending it but he kept talking about how excited he was for the game, so You decided to wait until after to end it with him.

There were no goals by either team after the first period, but something about Quinn seemed off. He was checking the other team left and right and was obviously agitated. The crowd is electric even though the Canucks are down 3-2 half way through the third, but it doesn’t seem to help his mood.

Quinn continues to instigate against the Jets and eventually gets himself into a fight against some player who was aggravating him all night. It doesn’t last long, but enough to get himself a penalty. He looks even more upset than before watching over the play.

Y/N was worried for Quinn. He never was this short tempered and she couldn’t figure what made him that upset. Evan can feel the nerves radiating off of her and rubs her shoulder to try and calm her, but he can’t help but feel like he is the last thing she needs right now.

“Hey Y/N I hate to do this here but I think we should probably end this,” Evan says and you finally take your eyes off Quinn. There is nothing you can do but sigh.

“Evan I’m so sorry I really wish I could’ve been better for you.”

“No it’s ok we had a great time and I’m happy being your friend I just think you have feelings for someone else,” Evan says with little to no hurt in his voice.

“Yeah I would love to still be your friend,” You say with a small smile as he gets up to leave.

Quinn sees Evan get up, but he just assumes that Evan is getting you something from the concessions. He realizes he needs to stop focusing on your date tonight and lock in for the rest of the game.

Unfortunately the Canucks lose 4-2 and Quinn looks like a kicked puppy, but luckily he isn’t assigned to interviews so he can just clean up and get ready to head home. He hopes he can just forget this night, especially seeing you with Evan. 

Little does he know that you’re already waiting for him in the hallway all but pacing the area hoping he’s not too upset to talk to you. Quinn keeps his head down not wanting to see all of the sweet reunions of the couples and families until he hears you call his name. 

He almost doesn’t want to stop worrying Evan would be with you, but you ran up to him to get his attention. Quinn turns around surprised to see you alone with a worried look on your face.

“Where’s your boyfriend?” He asks, his voice laced with annoyance. His comment leaves a sting in your chest.

“Um we actually ended it, but I just came to see how you were doing. I was really worried about you. I've never seen you so upset,” You say with worry lacing your voice.

“Well thanks for checking on me but - wait you ended it with Evan?” Quinn asks, lighting back up.

“Yeah we were better off as friends. I honestly wanted to end it a while ago because I kind of have feelings for someone else, but he was really looking forward to the game,” You say rubbing your arm hoping he might start catching on.

“Oh?” Quinn says with a glimmer of hope in his eyes, but still guarded in case it is someone else.

“Yeah he’s some goofball who was stupid and got himself a penalty tonight,” You say, stepping closer to Quinn.

“Well hopefully he can get that under control for the rest of the season, I’m sure you don’t want to be stuck with someone spending time in a box the whole game,” Quinn says with a smirk and leaning in.

You decided to close the gap and the kiss was all you had ever hoped for. There was a mix of fireworks and something that just felt like home as he grabbed your sides to pull you in closer. Neither of you wanted this feeling to end, but unfortunately you had to come back up for air. 

Quinn has the slightest pink tinge and smile on his face as he pulls back far enough to scan your face for any regrets.

“I’ve been waiting to do that for so long,” He says.

“Finally!” Elias says as he rounds the corner to see the two of you still wrapped up in each other's arms.

“I never thought he would make a move,” Elias adds as Quinn tries to hide in your neck.

“Well maybe we should get out of here and talk a little bit,” You suggest and Quinn excitedly nods, grabbing your hand to lead you out.

The two of you get into his car and you leave the arena stealing kisses from each other at stop lights and looking forward to your future together.

Jingle Bells—

Request: "i said UGLY Christmas sweaters not nsfw Christmas sweaters, we can NOT wear these, my boss will kill me" with the littlest hughes au?

Baby, it's cold outside Celly!!

Au Masterlist!!

Horror took over Honey’s face as Quinn stepped down the stairs in his new ugly Christmas sweater, which she believed he had picked out just for her work Christmas party.

Her jaw dropped as she watched the grin on his face grow as her face grew red, brows furrowed as she reached out to grab hold of him to better read the words displayed on the jumper. “Please tell me this is a joke,” she cringed as she re-read the words ‘jiggle my balls,’ written across his chest with a sexy Mrs. Claus holding a set of jingle bells.

“You don’t like it?” He feigned innocence as he reached out to touch her but was met with a smack to his hand as she denied his touch. “Like? Q, I hate,” her face grew embarrassed as she searched his expression for any sign that this could be a joke, but she was met with nothing but a grin, "this is icky, Babe."

Quinn was smiling at the concern on her face, brushing the hair out of her eyes to get a better view of her reaction, "Quinn you realize it's talking about your balls right?" "Yes love," he said, watching as her face continued to grow redder.

Little did she know that this was just some gag gift that Elias had gotten her during their ugly gift exchange, “please tell me you’re joking,” she hid her face in her hands, shaking her as his grin grew. "What are you doing?" he asked, his hands moving to pry hers away from her eyes but she backed away from him and shook her head. “If I close my eyes and pray maybe it will go away,” she mumbled and backed away from him even more to try and keep her cool, “Quinn you really can't be serious”

“Hun, you said ugly sweater, I’m just playing the part,” He reasoned as her eyes narrowed, glaring at him and his stupidity, "this is as Ugly as it gets," his voice filled with laughter as she dropped her hands to glare at him. “Quinn you’re sweater is talking about your balls,” her voice started calm but quickly turned a little annoyed as she massaged her temples, “I said ugly Christmas sweaters, not NSFW Christmas sweaters.” “It's funny!” “You can not wear that Quinn, my boss will kill me” she attempted to return to her calm state, “she wants perfection, and this is not it.”

Quinn let out a laugh as he pulled his wife into his chest, his eyes flickered over to the clock on the wall, ten more minutes until they needed to get out the door if they wanted to be there on time.

“We have to leave soon,” he mumbled as she tensed in his arms, “I gotta go change,” she pulled away with furrowed brows. “It was a joke?” he nodded and watched as her face melted into a look of relief, “Oh thank god,” she took a deep breath as she kissed her husband lovingly on the cheek.

"That was so not funny, I thought I was gonna have to go alone," she smacked him on the chest. "You really thought I would leave the house in that?" "I don't know?" Quinn shook his head, his face was still full of amusement as he kissed her lovingly on the lips, "I would never do that to you hun, blame Elias for me owning this though, completely his fault,” he placed another kiss to her cheek followed by a quick sorry for the stress before running up the stairs to change into his sweater.

I don't really like this... but I needed to write something or I would've gone insane from boredom

[phatcatphergus]

you don’t have to post this if you don’t want because i know cc!phil neg gets people crucified in the qsmp fandom, but i think the reason so much of phil’s fanbase is so ableist towards tubbo in particular is because phil has a really bad tendency to be unknowingly ableist towards him. we know most of phil’s viewers don’t actually watch tubbo’s streams, and their only impression of him is through phil’s pov. so it almost makes sense (although ofc it’s not an excuse) that they’d view tubbo as nothing but an emotionally immature and socially inept idiot, because that’s the only way phil ever talks about him.

i’ve had moments while watching tubbo’s streams with phil where i’ve gotten really seriously upset because phil wouldn’t stop insulting tubbo for rambling about his interests, making fun of tubbo for having sensory issues (particularly when it comes to tubbo’s issues with food and texture), over explaining simple concepts he knows tubbo already understands and talking to him as if he were much younger than he actually is, or laughing at him for taking longer to read blocks of text.

it’s frustrating that cc! and q! phil crit is so largely frowned upon, because even if he never meant for anything to come off as ableist (which i’m sure he doesn’t), it still sets a precedent and allows people in his fandom and the wider qsmp fandom to enable this kind of treatment towards disabled and neurodivergent ccs.

I’ll post because I firmly believe that people should be able to criticize creators and their characters so long as it's genuine crit and not just hate. having open discussions about something (especially something that is a serious topic like this) is important in fandom spaces because otherwise, people will become perfect and untouchable even when they make mistakes.

I too have noticed those comments as well as some others that irked me greatly. I agree that he isn't trying to be ableist and probably doesn't know how he's coming off is genuinely hurtful, especially to Tubbo and other ND people. I think a major part of it comes from the whole mindset that Tubbo is a young and quirky kid instead of an ND adult. A lot of the comments that Phil has made felt based on the fact that he sees Tubbo as much younger than he is and has to "correct" him because he's "older and wiser". It could also come from a difference in humor and a generational gap as well as just overall ignorance.

I think some of this comes from how the fandom has treated both Phil and Tubbo in the past (and now) because the difference is staggering. This goes into how the Phil viewers see Tubbo because they never grew out of the "Phil is a wise old man" mindset like how they never grew out of the "Tubbo is a quirky little kid" mindset.

Overall, I think there's a cycle of how the fans treat creators and how creators take it to heart (Phil stans see him as old and wise so Phil starts to see himself as wise if that makes sense).

Mistaken Advice

Ahhh, decided to post my first 9-1-1 fic.

Buck/Connor!

***

When Abby doesn't believe him about the catfisher, Buck breaks up with her and returns home to Connor and the frat house and gets a happy ending he deserves.

***

After the hell of the catfish situation, and figuring out what the hell was going on, he realized that Abby not believing him was just another sign that maybe he wasn’t meant for a relationship.  He never should’ve taken Bobby’s advice. 

Instead, he should’ve kept things to himself, and been fine with the way things were going.  There’s nothing wrong with a single man having consensual sex with multiple partners.  Not if both parties are just fine with it.

Still, it’d been hard to go back to Connor’s with his tail between his legs. 

There’s a part of him that liked dating and phone calls and having a connection beyond sex.  In fact, it’s something that he knows that he wants, but isn’t sure after everything with Abby that he’d ever get that.

He’d been worried that Connor wouldn’t let him back, but Connor had been thrilled to see him.  Giving him a hug, which is something he’s been a bit starved for. 

“Welcome back, the others are gone for the night, and you’ll have to bunk with me, but don’t worry, I’ll keep my hands to myself.”

Buck’s eyes widen.  He knows that he and Connor kind-of sort-of had a thing and that he more or less abandoned that kind-of sort-of thing for Abby because of Bobby’s advice and here he is, welcoming him back and willing to share his room with him.

“You’d really… do that?  Let me share your room after I – you know?”

“Buck,” Connor says, softly.  “You told me what happened with this chick, and how you were kind of pushed into it by others, I am not going to give you BS about it.  As long as you’re cool sharing a room, I am, too.”

“You’re the best!” Buck says, throwing his arms around him.  “Don’t know what I’d do without you.”

“Luckily, you’ll never have to find out!”

***

Buck’s been sharing a room with Connor again for nearly two weeks.  The hurt of the situation with Abby, who hadn’t believed in him and then took off anyway (and would’ve left without even a goodbye), had faded away to him enjoying his return to being at Connor’s house.  It’s like feeling like he’s come home. 

In a way, it feels like he took a detour on this weird dating road and while on his way back to where he was meant to be.

There was just one problem.

They weren’t dating and he doesn’t know how to change that.

Like what if he says something and Connor says no?  They’re literally sharing a bed, it would be so awkward. 

“You’re thinking too hard, and I can’t sleep,” Connor says, rolling over to face Buck, who’s laying on his back.  “What’s wrong?”

“I – I am afraid to tell you.”

“Well, you’ll just have to push through that like the big brave firefighter you are and tell me anyway or neither of us is getting any sleep tonight – and if that happens, I’m saying the Q word right before your shift.”

“You wouldn’t be that cruel,” Buck says, knowing that Connor wouldn’t actually curse him like that.

“I’d be tempted to, now tell me.”

“I think I screwed up.”

“With Abby?” Connor asks, rolling his eyes.  “Dude, I told you.  She doesn’t deserve you.  You deserve someone who was all in and not some chick that wanted a boytoy when you were finally ready for something serious.  You deserve better.”

Buck thinks about countering or maybe just focusing on something else.  Instead, he blurts, “Like you?  Because I – I know I screwed up.  I never should’ve gotten involved with Abby, and we had something here and I – I was following mistaken advice… following this concept of a relationship by a man who hasn’t dated in this century.  At least, I don’t think he has.  He might’ve been dating still in the early 2000s, I don’t know.  The point is… I never should’ve left or let things just be sex when I knew I wanted more and I just – I know this is awkward since we share a room if you say no, but I wanna date you and I wanna do it right and –”

He's cut off by a kiss. 

The first kiss with Connor in nearly five months, and it’s like a warm sense of home.  Of being where he belongs with whom he belongs.  It’s perfect. 

Connor breaks it off and says, “I love your blathering, but I really wanted to do that since you suggested me.”

Buck chuckles.  “Yeah, maybe I should’ve gone with just a kiss first, but you know, we never talked about before… and –”

“Why don’t we forget about before?” Connor suggests.  “Start over, as an actual couple?”

“As long as I get to plan some dates that we actually get to go on.”

“Deal.”

***

The next couple of months pass by in a blur of happiness for Buck.  He’s gotten his shield, he’s got a boyfriend that loves him, things are way better than they ever were with Abby, until he meets the new guy. 

He’s not terribly happy with him since it feels like he doesn’t have to prove himself the way that Buck has.  The way he jumps in like he doesn’t think Buck can do his job, and the support he has from the team while Buck struggled.  It’s irritating, and kind of makes him want to punch him and Chim, who apparently told Eddie that Buck was living in Abby’s place pretending to be with her when she actually broke up with him … like what? 

He was just about set everyone straight when his phone rings: Connor.

He turns away, answering the phone with, “Hey babe.”

“Hey, I didn’t catch you at a bad time, did I?”

“Uh, no, just working out.  Probably saved me from doing something stupid.”

Like decking Chimney, although Buck’s never been a violent person he’s sorely tempted.  He can hear Chimney jeering that it’s a full-time job doing that.

“That’s great because I have a woman here –”

“If it’s another one of the catfisher’s victims, I am going to question how the hell she got our address.”

“It’s not,” Connor states.  “She, uh, she says that she’s your sister.”

“My what?” Buck asks, wide eyed and confused.  He hadn’t heard from Maddie in years and she’s just at his house that’s two thousand miles from Hershey and out of the blue.  It’s insane.

“Yeah, that’s what I said.  She hasn’t answered anything from you in three years and suddenly shows up unannounced.  I mean, who does that?”

Buck laughs.  “Clearly, she does.  Are you sure it’s her?”

“Positive.  I’ve seen the photo from your eighteenth birthday and … she had the post cards and Christmas cards and …”

“She hasn’t changed much, then?” Buck asks, smiling slightly.  He’d been worried about her given his reservations about Doug.  “What about – is she alone?”

“She is and she won’t talk about anything other than to ask to use our shower and when you might return.”

“That makes sense.”  They were always taught to keep dirty laundry to themselves, and she’s never met Connor, so why would she trust him?  “Tell her I’ll be home soon.  Shifts almost over anyway, and I don’t want her to feel awkward with our housemates or you since she’s never met any of you.”

“She seems a little skittish, honestly.  Given what you told me that you were worried about … I think it’s perfect timing that no one else is here right now, but you never know here – we all come and go at weird hours, so the sooner you come home the better.”

Buck laughs.  “Yeah, we do.  Look, uh, thanks for letting me know.”

“I’m your babe, I’m supposed to tell you things.”

“You’re hilarious.”

“Don’t you know it.  But seriously, I would never let you come home to a surprise like this.”

“Thank you for that.  I love you; I’ll see you soon.”

“Love you, too.”

He hangs up the phone and takes a deep breath before turning around to go talk to Bobby.  There’s less than an hour left and some of B Shift is already here, so he should be fine to head out early. 

He vaguely hears Chimney’s: “What was that about?”

As he walks passed him, and thinks that maybe he shouldn’t respond, but then, this is a chance to make a point.

“None of your business.  Especially when you go around spreading lies about me to new people and old hands, clearly,” Buck states, firmly.  “My private life is none of your business, so back off.”

He doesn’t wait for a response, going straight to Bobby and then taking off within a few minutes.  He only hopes that he can help Maddie through whatever she’s going through to just suddenly show up on his doorstep.

***

When he gets home, despite knowing to expect her, he’s still a little stunned to see her.  She’s sitting nervously at the counter, away from Connor, who is trying to not act all awkward on the other end of the counter. 

He’s clearly been trying to engage her in conversation, but as Connor had said, she’s acting skittish and uncertain.  It makes sense given what he suspects.

“Evan!” Maddie says, getting up the second she sees him come through the door. 

He tosses his bag on the floor and opens his arms for her hug, which she doesn’t hesitate to give him.  “It really is you.”

“Yeah, yeah, I, uh, really needed to see you.”

“Well, I’m here.  You’re safe.”

He knows that he’s presuming something he probably shouldn’t, but he’s been worried about her for years and he’s seen things that has made it worse.

“You know?”

“I’ve suspected.”

Maddie lets go of him and sits back down at the counter.  “I didn’t want you to know.”

“You don’t have to protect me, Maddie,” Buck offers as he moves to kiss Connor’s cheek.  “By the way, I know you’ve met, but this is my boyfriend, Connor.”

Maddie nods, a soft smile on her face.  “He’s been gushing about you since I got here and confirmed who I was.”

“I’d deny it, but when you have a hot firefighter boyfriend, who can resist?” Connor teases.  “And what Maddie has said amounts to some pretty fearless stories in your childhood.  I swear you were born to be a firefighter.”

Buck laughs.  “Yeah, well, I told you a lot of them myself.”  Then he leans over and stage-whispers to Maddie, “He was obsessed with Hershey when we first met, convinced that it was where chocolate was born, and I must be cool for living there.”

Maddie laughs.  “So, when did you learn he wasn’t cool?”

“Hey!” Buck yells, playfully annoyed. 

“Sometime after he followed me home,” Connor teases.

“You invited me.”

“I did, best decision I ever made.”

Buck kisses his cheek again, and says, “But we should really be focusing on you, Maddie.”

Maddie’s eyes dart between them, and Connor can pick up what she isn’t saying.  “My shift starts soon, so I’ll just head out now.  Derek’s room is thankfully already cleaned from when he moved out last week.  So, you’re welcome to it.”

Maddie blinks.  “Don’t you have to consult your other roommates?”

“It’s Connor’s house, officially.  His parents moved down to Florida when they retired, so he’s technically the one that gets to decide –”

“- but we’re a family here, so we would’ve worked something out anyway,” Connor assures her.  “You’re welcome to stay as long as you like.”

Maddie has tears in her eyes as she moves to hug Connor.  “Thank you.  I knew he found something special when he left Peru, but I just didn’t realize how special.”

“Buck’s pretty special himself, he was bound to find us eventually.”

He gives Buck a hug and a kiss, before leaving the two siblings alone. 

“I’m glad you were able to find what you were looking for,” Maddie says.  “You were lost for so long and now…”

“I was lost because there was a lot that I didn’t know, I was lost because I was unwanted and unloved, and I was lost because I didn’t have anyone to lead me where I needed to go.  You gave me a way out – a way to go on a journey to find myself, and that journey led me to Peru and Connor led me here.  I joined the Fire Academy, learned a lot of things about myself, and I’m in the best place I can be.  Happy, loved and wanted.”

Maddie’s eyes are filled with unshed tears.  “I loved you, Evan.  I wanted you, Evan, but I let Doug ruin everything between us.”

“He hasn’t ruined everything,” Buck assures her.  “Because you’re here.  You were brave enough to leave and you came to me.”

He pauses, then decides that he should tell her he knows about a secret in their lives that she probably knows and couldn’t tell him, but it’s important to be honest.

“It was never you.  I didn’t feel unloved and unwanted by you, Maddie.  I knew that you loved me, and you tried to be there for me.  Taking care of me until you went off to college and even a little when you came back for holidays and then, permanently.  I always ran to you because I knew that you cared about me.  Mom and Dad, they never did.  They wanted me to save Daniel, and when I didn’t, they didn’t want me anymore.  They had this constant reminder of what I failed for them, and they didn’t want me around.  It didn’t matter what I did, the closest thing I got to attention was when I was hurt.  It made me reckless and careless and like my life doesn’t matter as much as others.  If I could save someone but it came at losing my life?  Well, I didn’t think I had anyone that would miss me too much.”

“You know about Daniel?  You know what they did?”

Buck nods.  “I do.  They contacted the doctors in Hershey to get my complete medical records when I tried to join the SEALs.  Let me tell you that was an eye-opener.  My point is – it’s not on you that I grew up like that.  I know you cared, but we went longer and longer without contact and – I understand why.  Doug was never the good guy that he wanted people to believe, and he knew I saw through him.  That the older I got the more likely you would be to believe me.  Especially if he was hurting you.  That’s why he interfered, right?  Why you stopped calling?”

Maddie nods.  “I, uh, after we got married and mom and dad cut contact with me, I refused to stop talking to you – Doug didn’t like it.  But I kept pushing anyway because … I knew about Daniel and why our parents were the way they were – I’m not excusing them, but I knew it hurt.  I wanted to keep my promise to you.  Which is why I was saving up money to run.  Why when you asked me to go with you … at first, I said yes.  Doug figured me out and I was… hurt pretty bad, so I left you the note and told you to go and be free.  Find a happiness that I didn’t think I could find…”

Buck covers his face with his hands.  “You’ve suffered all these years because I took your escape?”

“No, I gave it to you.  I wasn’t ready to leave, I was so afraid, and I couldn’t stand the thought of Doug finding us and hurting you because of me… but I – you kept sending those post cards and Christmas cards.  Telling me about your life, reminding me that I could come to you, and I finally found myself brave enough to leave…”

“And now, you’re here, and I can protect you.  We can protect you,” Buck assures her.  “My friends here, and Connor, have been like a family to me, and they’ll do the same for you.  Do you have anyone that can send proof of what he did to you?  I’ve got a friend in the LAPD; she can help you figure out how to make it better.”

Maddie looks uncertain.  “I – well, I wasn’t planning on involving anyone else.  I just wanted to find a safe place to land.  I don’t think Doug even knows where you are, and you moved around a lot…”

“I’ve been on TV, involved in some difficult rescues that got TV attention, Doug knows my name even if he doesn’t know where I am.  He can figure it out pretty quickly.  It’s better to do whatever we can to protect you.  The guys here – we all have wacky schedules, so it’s easy for one of us to be here protecting you if you’re at the house, but we need something legal to protect you – and Athena will be great.  We didn’t get along at first, but she’s warmed up to me.”

Maddie still looks uncertain as she asks, “What did you do to her?”

“Yelled at her because she wanted to rescue the girl that flushed her baby down the toilet,” Buck says.  “It’s a long story, but the little girl – she was adopted by a loving couple.”

“And the girl that did that?”

“Don’t know, don’t care.  She almost killed her baby when there are safe haven laws.  She didn’t have to do that.  She needed care, but I was biased against her, and Athena was biased for her because of her teenage daughter.  We butted heads, but we’re better now.”

Maddie bites her lip.  “And you’re sure that she can help me?”

Buck nods.  “She’s a badass Sergeant, and she’s got a good heart.  She can help you, I’m sure of it.”

“Okay.  Just… let me think about it?”

“Of course.”

***

The first shift after the phone call with Connor about Maddie, Buck anticipates Chimney’s hassling and trying to figure out Buck’s secrets so he can mock him about it, but he can avoid him for the most part.  It’s Eddie – the new guy – who Buck is more worried about. 

He doesn’t like him showing him up and claiming that he doesn’t know that he’s implying Buck can’t do his job.  He shouldn’t constantly jump in and act like he knows better when he’s been here for like ten seconds.

And to think that he thought that he knew what was going on in Buck’s life and that he was ‘taking it out’ on him, rather than anything he did wrong was bullshit.  Buck had spent so long proving himself and it’s just a given that Eddie’s right about things, like he’s the experienced firefighter. 

It stings and even talking about it with Connor and Maddie hadn’t made it easier. 

But he’s gotta figure something out since he feels like he’ll be dropped for the ‘silver star’ and as much as he’s annoyed of late, he really loves his team.  He doesn’t… he can’t stand the thought of leaving the 118…

And just like he’s always been taught… he had to shut down his feelings on the matter in order to stay.

He’s just not sure how he could do that, he thinks as he changes into his uniform.  He supposes he could think of Connor and his gushing, or their friends and roommates welcoming Maddie like she’s one of them already, or maybe he could talk to him or Hen or Bobby about how he’s feeling.  He’s sure that Hen’s got a better idea of how to talk him through this.  She’s the one he goes to for advice anyway.

Before he could decide, Eddie comes into the locker room.  They’re alone, so Buck’s not sure if he should just ignore him or take the chance to talk it out. 

He focuses on buttoning his shirt, still undecided when Eddie says, “I’m sorry.”

“Sorry?” Buck questions.

“I realized that I made a bad first impression.  I was used to being in charge and taking the lead in the army, and I wanted to make a good first impression, based on the teasing in the truck, I made a snap judgement on you that I shouldn’t have.  And I wanted to impress Bobby, so I spoke up when I shouldn’t have.  Your way would’ve been right and it’s how the academy teaches it, but I wanted to be seen as better and that wasn’t fair.”

Buck blinks.  “It was intentional based on Chimney’s comments?”

“Yes, and I shouldn’t have done that.  And then, I talked to him, and he fed me some clear bullshit based on what we overheard in the gym the other day…”

“My personal business is none of yours or Chimney’s business, but yeah, he clearly fed you some bullshit,” Buck states, plainly.  He’s pissed that Chimney’s comments affected things on the team like this.

“You’re right,” Eddie admits.  “And again, I’m sorry.  Could we maybe start over?  I don’t want my partner to hate me, and I really want this to work.”

He offers his hand and Buck knowing that it’s for the best takes it.  “Yeah, let’s start over.  I’m Evan Buckley, but I go by Buck.”

Eddie grins.  “I’m Edmundo Diaz, but I go by Eddie.”

Buck laughs.  “So, it is a nickname?”

“It is,” Eddie states, smiling.  “You just guessed the wrong name and I was so thrown off at the insistence of a nickname that I didn’t think to correct you.”

“Wow.  Well, you got me for sure.”

***

Despite knowing that Maddie’s decided to talk to the police and they’ll hopefully be able to address the Doug issue, it still takes a couple of weeks before she’s willing to talk to Athena and then, she insists that she wants to meet her outside of the police station, which means asking Bobby if Maddie could come to the firehouse to meet Athena for the first time. 

He wanted to convince her about other locations (mainly because he doesn’t want gossip going around about his life – Chimney has made it his mission to find out everything he can about Buck’s secrets), but she insisted and he’s a little nervous.

“Hey, you don’t have to explain much beyond she’s your sister,” Eddie offers.

They’d become closer in the last couple of weeks, meeting his kid and introducing him to Carla had led to an actual friendship.  He seems to respect Buck’s privacy and he’s quite happy with that.

“Yeah, but he’s like a dog with a bone.  He’s been incessant trying to figure out what’s going on my life,” Buck complains.  “I just – I don’t know.”

“I’m sure it’ll be fine.  I’ll have your back and Bobby does, too.”

He’s right.  When he had to explain to Bobby everything so they could set up Maddie and Athena, Bobby had been quite the supportive almost-dad that he sometimes acts like with Buck, and Buck had been relieved.  Especially because Bobby seemed quite proud of Buck for moving on with Connor and not pining for Abby like he thought (he’d been feeling guilty for encouraging Buck with Abby given what she did to him and worried that his advice was hurting Buck more than helping).

“Thanks.”

With that, he suddenly sees Connor and Maddie entering the station and grins.  No matter what, he’s thrilled to see them. 

He greets them both with a hug and kiss on the cheek, introduces Eddie and then says, “Athena’s already upstairs.”

They both nod and follow Buck up the stairs. 

Buck leads them over to Bobby and Athena and introduces everyone.  Athena focuses in on Maddie, while Bobby says, with a smile, “It’s nice to meet the man who brought Buck to us.”

Connor flushes.  “Well, all I did was invite him home with me.  He didn’t have to come, but I’m glad he did.”

“Well, we are, too.  Buck’s the heart of this firehouse, and we wouldn’t be what we are without him.”

Buck flushes as Chim asks, “I thought that was me, Cap?”

“You know, I thought it was, but then, I realized, Buck’s the one that got me to let down my walls and let other people into my life,” Bobby says.  “He helped Eddie with his kid, and he even softened up Athena.”

“Hey, he’s just lucky that his heroics let me realize that he was absolutely right,” Athena states before turning back to Maddie.

Hen teases about something else Buck did, and it continues for a few minutes before Bobby says, “The point is, we’re lucky to have him and you’re the reason he’s here.”

Connor grins as he kisses Buck’s cheek.  “Yeah, well, I couldn’t resist.  Buck’s pretty amazing.”

Just then, the alarm goes off and Bobby says, “You can be man behind this time,” eyeing his guests.  “In case they need you.”

“Thanks, Bobby.”

***

The chat with Athena ended up going well, and she did convince Maddie that the station was necessary, but the point was that everything was on the up and up. 

Buck’s got his sister back (and is able to protect her), he’s feeling pretty good at work (the teasing earlier and being called the heart had done wonders for him and the way he’d been feeling lately) and he’s got the world’s most perfect boyfriend.

Life couldn’t get any better.

He only wished that he hadn’t listened to Bobby’s mistaken advice in the first place, but he’s glad he’s here now.  Living his happily ever after with his boyfriend. 

Some things work out after all.

What do you all think??

Linked Keys Febuwhump

Days 8/9 - Panic & Voice Loss

Wild never thought he would return to his old self, and that was a good thing. The stoic, silent, serious knight he used to be was not who he really was, and even if it took losing his memory to figure that out, he was much happier now that he felt free to live up to his nickname. At least that’s what he thought.

But then Warriors had gotten hurt. It wasn’t the injury itself that caused Wild to break down, nor was it witnessing the attack; but rather the aftermath of it. Once Wild, Future, and Time had returned to the village and they saw the true severity of the situation, it was hard to believe the Captain had survived at all. He’d make it, Hyrule had said. The healer was doing everything he could, and slowly but steadily was making progress. Though some weren’t quite so optimistic.

The kids— or Mask and Wind at least— must have overheard one of these less hopeful conversations, because Wild found them in the hallway just around the corner from Warriors’ room. Mask was sobbing, and Wind was trying to comfort him.

“Wind… Do you think Wars is going to die?”

“What? No! He’s way too tough for some overgrown Lizalfos to take him down!”

"It's just… I overheard the others talking. They're saying he might not make it. I don't know what I would do if—"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Link…? Is dad going to be okay?”

A much younger Wild sat beside his little sister outside the castle infirmary. Their father had returned from a mission gravely wounded, and it was unclear whether he would survive. His sister— Wild mentally kicked himself because he still couldn’t remember her name— could not stop crying at the thought of possibly losing their dad. Their mom had died giving birth to her, so losing dad meant they’d be all alone.

“Of course he will! He’s way too strong to let something like this stop him!” Link tried to assure her.

…He was not okay. Minutes, hours passed before the news came out that their father did not make it. Wild’s sister was inconsolable. Wild stood there in stunned silence. He’d wanted to follow in his father’s footsteps, to become a knight as well. But he didn’t expect it to happen like this; because now with their father gone, he was the only one left to protect his sister and their home.

He swore he’d be strong for her, and for everyone else in his life. He couldn’t let grief get the best of him if he was going to protect them all…

So he vowed to remain completely silent from then on, in order to appear strong and carry any burden he was asked to, without question. Without complaint. Without failure.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wild snapped out of the memory so suddenly that he stumbled backwards and slammed into the wall. It took him a moment to remember where he was and what was happening. The inn… Warriors… The kids… That had been what triggered it! Seeing the parallels between what he witnessed with Wind and Mask, and what had occurred with him and his sister as a child.

Wind was going through the same thing Wild had. Not thinking clearly, Wild immediately jumped to the conclusion that the memory was an indication that Warriors was not going to make it. Wind was going to end up just like Wild. Wild couldn’t let that happen, he couldn’t let the poor kid lose the optimism and innocence and spunk that he had so much of, that kept the group going even when everything seemed hopeless. He decided in that moment that Wind didn’t have to worry about it; Wild would carry that burden in his stead. He would be the strong one again. He would be the one to look after and protect Wind. He had to be… He couldn’t let anyone else go through what he had.

“Cub?” Twilight asked, appearing behind the Champion, “You okay? I saw you fall… You’re not hurt, are you?”

Wild tried to respond, but his voice wouldn’t work. But it didn’t have to; silence would be better anyway, right? Wild shook his head in response to Twilight’s question.

“What’s wrong? Talk to me.” Twilight urged. Wild, again, shook his head.

I'm fine, he signed, standing up without another word, or gesture for that matter. He noticed the two kids had fallen asleep in the hallway, and decided to carry them to the other room so they could sleep in a proper bed. Twilight helped, clearly concerned for Wild, but Wild said nothing.

He felt he could not speak again unless Warriors turned out to be alright in the end.

Henry Jekyll NSFW Alphabet

A/N: I feel like I’m going to end up writing a version of this with Hyde. Removed X

Warnings: Massive warning for NSFW themes

Fandom: The strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde

Pronouns: No pronouns used for reader

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

Henry doesn't have much knowledge about what to do after sex.

You’d definitely have to be the one to bring up your needs to him.

After a discussion he’ll easily get the hang of it

B = Body part (their favourite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

Henry’s favourite body part on you is your eyes. He likes to gaze into them, both during intimate moments and randomly throughout the day.

His favourite body part on himself is his neck. He likes when you kiss his neck, both because it’s an intimate gesture and because feeling your lips against his pulse reminds himself he’s still alive.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

He’s pretty basic, prefering to cum inside of you.

Partly because it’s what he’s most comfortable and because knowing a servant has to clean up after an intimate night would be too embarrassing to handle

D = Dirty secret (pretty self-explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

Both he and Hyde are into bondage, both giving and receiving. Though Henry prefers to be on the receiving end

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

He had zero sexual experience. Most of his time was spent on scientific study.

He’s a fast learner though, so he’ll be quick to know what you like 

F = Favourite position (this goes without saying)

I was originally going to say Missionary but then I decided, you know what? He probably likes being ridden.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

This man is a doctor in Victorian London. He is making no jokes during sex.

Sometimes takes it a little too seriously

H = Hair (how well-groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

He’d probably only shave once it starts to become an inconvenience for him.

He definitely washes down there as well

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

Henry is very intimate during the moment

As stated previously he likes to make eye contact. 

He’ll also be very gentle with his touches

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

Rarely masterbates

On the off chance he does it’s usually at night,either because he’s in the mood and doesn't want to wake you or because he can’t sleep

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

As previously stated, he’s really into bondage

Another kink I think he had is praise (receiving). He’s gotten praised for his work before but there’s something special about being praised as a person

L = Location (favourite places to do the do)

Henry greatly values his privacy so I’m inclined to believe he’d only really want to have sex in his bedroom.

He’d maybe agree to have sex in the bathroom with enough convincing 

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

There isn't really any specific thing that turns him on, he just gets aroused sometimes.

If you were the one to initiate he’d probably get turned on 

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn-offs)

One of his hard limits is having sex in his lab/office

Not only is there a risk that someone could walk in but there’s also a lot of dangerous chemicals in his lab

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

He actually prefers giving over receiving 

He’s not all that skilled but he is enthusiastic

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

He has a pretty slow pace on most days, some days he’s more rough and frantic with his thrusts

There are also days where he decides to let you take the lead

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

Not really into quickies all that much

If you are he’ll indulge you but he usually prefers to take his time when it comes to sex

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

No, odd for a scientist, but no he doesn't like to experiment much

Same goes for risk taking, he has a reputation to uphold so if the risk involves the possibility of someone walking in it’s a hard no

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

Henry can go for about 2-3 rounds, he usually gets really tired after 2 but can go for longer on a good day

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

No to all of these, he does not own any sex toys (apparently Victorians did have them though)

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Doesn’t tease much, a lot of the time he’d prefer to get straight to the intimacy aspect

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

He’s usually pretty quiet, mostly just grunts. Occasionally he does let out some loud moans but those are few and far between

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

I feel like he has a bit of a size kink

He is a pretty tall man after all

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

He actually doesnt have all that high of a sex drive, he does get aroused from time to time

Most of the time you’d have to be the one to initiate sex

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterward)

Actually very quickly, some days immediately.

Sometimes he manages to power through enough for some light aftercare.

Josh Kiszka NSFW Alphabet (Smut Headcanons)

ok....so I've been wanting to do one of these for a while and I may have gotten a little carried away. This is by far the smuttiest thing I've ever written, please forgive me. let me know if you guys wanna see more stuff like this, maybe with the other boys? idk anyways enjoy!!

Warnings: Everything....

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

Josh likes to stay inside you for a minute after he finishes, either burying his head in the crook of your neck or pressing his forehead to yours. Once you are both ready to part, he immediately goes to get you a glass of water and a warm washcloth to clean you up, making sure you’re doing okay. Sometimes one of you will suggest to clean off in the shower or soak in the bath for a little bit, and the entire time he’ll hold you close and press kisses to your temple, cooing words of praise and telling you how much he loves you.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

Josh loves his mouth, how it can give you passionate kisses and whisper praises, but also bring you to an orgasm so easily. He loves your hands, the feeling of them roaming the expanse of his skin, how they look wrapped around his cock, and the tingle he gets when you tug his hair and claw his back.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

There is nothing Josh loves more than being buried deep inside you when he cums. He loves the feeling of your walls clenching around him, loves to see his seed leak out of you when he’s pulled out, using his fingers to fuck it back into you. As far as your release goes, what he loves most is feeling you fall apart on his tongue, tasting your release turns him on more than anything.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

Every once and a while the thought of you dominating him crosses Josh’s mind, specifically pegging. He had kept his longing a secret for the first year of your relationship but accidentally let it slip one night, but you informed him you’d try it out if he really wanted to. It became an activity you two revisit every couple of months.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

The man has some experience under his belt - I mean he is a famous musician - but nothing too crazy. He had about five or six partners before you, but most of his experience he gained with you. Both of you had vastly improved your game over the course of the relationship, and you knew each other’s bodies like they were your own.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

Every position quite honestly, but he especially loves when you ride him. It allows him to gaze up at you and get the perfect view of his length going in and out of you, the sight often causing him to throw back his head and let out a throaty moan. Truly Josh loves any position, but especially the ones that allow him to see your face and the expressions you make. He still likes to have you on all fours every so often and also spoon you while lazily pumping in and out of you.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

It really depends on the day, but most of the time sex with Josh is light and playful. Giggling is a common occurrence from the both of you during the act, and you will catch Josh with a smile on his face quite often.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

Josh prefers to keep it natural down there, only trimming every once in a while if things get really out of hand. He has a dark happy trail leading down from his belly button to a lighter patch of brown curls on his pubic bone that surrounds his length. In addition I think Joshua doesn’t really care what his partner decides to do for their grooming, actually I believe he finds it extremely hot if they keep it natural down there because he thinks you were made perfectly.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

Most of the time he is extremely intimate, only being taken out of the moment if there’s a lot of other stuff on his mind, or if he is particularly stressed, but he is a very romantic and attentive partner for the most part.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

Let’s be honest, Josh has a very high sex drive, and that can be a bit of a problem when he’s on tour or when you’re not around. He takes care of himself by thinking of you, porn isn’t really his thing, if he’s gonna have some sort of visual aid it is going to be photos/videos of you, his favorites being intimate polaroids he’s taken of you that he keeps hidden away.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

Whooo boy, there are a lot of things this man is into. I’d love to go more into detail on each one of these, so maybe one day I’ll write a piece on these. To name a few, Josh is into hair pulling, light choking, period sex, squirting, mutual masturbation, praise, edging, domination, i really could go on forever.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

Your shared bedroom is always the top choice, but you guys like to get creative, you’ve done it in the shower, bath, car, backyard, restaurant bathroom, empty field at night, secluded hiking trails, his childhood home, and when you guys are very impatient he’ll bend you over the kitchen counter or prop you up on the arm of the couch.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

It doesn’t take much to turn this man on, he’s so insanely in love with you that everything you do gets him going. Sometimes on stage he’ll spot you in the crowd, seeing you dancing and singing every word, that’s something that really gets to him, and it takes everything within him to not run off stage and fuck you right then.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

Josh wouldn’t wanna do anything that puts you in pain, he hates seeing you suffer and would never want to do anything that hurt you, no matter if it would feel good for him.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

There is nothing more beautiful than the face Josh makes when you take him in your mouth. He closes his eyes and leans his head back, grinning with his perfect teeth and sticking just the tip of his tongue out. His moans and words of praise are angelic as well, and the way his soft eyes gaze at you as you swallow his release. As much as he loves your mouth, he prefers to have his on your core. God that man eats your pussy like it’s last meal. Lapping and sucking at your clit, alternating between dipping his fingers and tongue into your tight cunt. He could-and has- cum from just eating you out, it brings him just as much pleasure, and his mouth waters thinking about how good you taste.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

He’s all of it. It depends on what mood you’re in but this man will make slow, passionate love to you in the morning, fuck you fast and rough in the evening and everything in between.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

Josh doesn’t mind a good quickie every once in a while. If you have somewhere to be 10 minutes after he gets home from the studio, no problem. Man can make you cum in less than five minutes, and he does not hesitate to demonstrate.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

Yassss Joshy boy loves to take risks, as long as you’re comfortable. If you propose an idea and it intrigues him, you’ll be trying it within the next five minutes. That’s part of what makes your sex life with Josh so satisfying, you two aren’t afraid to switch things up.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

Usually two is where Josh taps out, but sometimes you two decide to stay up all night smoking, talking, cuddling and fucking. Times like those he can go about 4 or 5 rounds. When you two are both home he fucks you at least twice throughout the day.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

You own a few toys that you both use, together or alone. After he left for tour once Josh bought you a vibrator so you wouldn’t miss him too much. Sometimes he’d pull it out while fucking you, just to hold it on your clit. That usually ended with you making a big mess and Josh being extremely satisfied.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Josh likes to tease you a little bit, but he actually enjoys it more when you’re the one teasing him. He likes still being a little submissive.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

Much like on stage, Josh is loud in the bedroom as well. Between his throaty moans and grunts, he also is constantly talking to you. He responds to your sounds by saying “Yeah, you like that?” and “tell me how good it feels” and so much other dirty talk because he’s a cocky little shit. He’s also big into praise, whether that be praising you or getting praise himself.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

If there’s one thing that makes Josh feel totally elated, it’s making you squirt. The first time he did it was totally unintentional, he was just eating you out like usual, but his fingers curved a certain way and you bursted. It was the hottest thing he’d ever seen, and he became obsessed with making you do it over, and over, and over again.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

This man has a beautiful dick. It’s about 7 ½ - 8 inches long with some nice girth to it. It leans a little to the left and has a nice curve to it, and it has some veins that rub your walls deliciously. He used to be self conscious of his dick but you assured him it was perfect and it never failed to please you.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

Have you seen how hyper this man is? You briefly mention something or even say the word “sex” in a sentence and his clothes are off.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

Depends on the day, but for the most part he likes staying up for a little while to talk with his arms around you, eventually quietly thinking about how lucky he is before drifting off.

Trust (Steve x Reader)

The sound of the toilet flushing filled the room as you leaned against the bathroom stall, Robin next to you in a separate stall, along with Steve in his own as the poor bastard threw up yet again. The worst part of this evening was not the part where strange men screamed at you in a language you barely understood. It wasn't even the drugs they gave the three of you. It was the fact that through all of this, you were still in that stupid ass sailor outfit.

"Tell me, why didn't we just settle for a normal summer? Maybe go to some parties, deal with a standard hangover and not the aftermath of whatever drugs Russian spies gave us." You said. "I think I'd rather be here than at some party." Robin said, you chuckled. "You hate social interaction that much?" Steve asked. "Yes. Well, and I actually think this might be the best summer I've ever had." Robin said.

"Robin, did you just admit that you liked hanging out with us?" Steve asked. "Maybe I did, dingus." Robin said. "You are so totally high." You snorted. "I am not!" Robin said, nudging you with her foot underneath the stall making you laugh. Steve smiled to himself as he head that giggle of yours.

"I think I'm coming down from it." Steve said after you recovered from your laughing fit. Robin slid into your stall, sitting next to you. "I'm good." Robin said. "I don't believe that." you said. "Oh yeah? Ask me something. Interrogate me." Robin said, mimicking a Russian accent. "When's the last time you pissed yourself?" You asked immediately making her laugh to a point where her face was turning red. You could hear Steve laughing with her.

"I tell you to ask me a question, and that's your first?" Robin wheezed. "You never answered, Buckley" Steve laughed. "Today" Robin said. "What? When?" You asked, wiping your eyes from laughing to the point of tears. "When the doctor pulled out the bone saw. I peed." She said making you and Steve laugh again. She laughed with you. "It was just a little bit" She added, making a small gesture with her fingers.

You giggled, Steve smiling to himself. He loved hearing your laugh. Honestly, the best part of his summer was meeting you. He had gotten the job at Scoops Ahoy and there was obvious chemistry between the two of you.

"Alright, alright. Someone ask a serious question." Robin said. "hmm" You pondered. "First kiss?" You asked. "Robert Lambert. 0/10. Would never recommend." Robin said, making you snort. "Yeah, I bet. He was my first kiss too." You said making her laugh. "What about you Dingus?" Robin asked. "Taylor Bennington." Steve said. "Wow, Taylor? Really?" You asked. "It was a dare." Steve shrugged.

"Okay, okay, my turn." Robin said, you chuckling. "First love?" Robin asked. "Oh, Nancy Wheeler." Steve said. "Wheeler?" You breathed out, your voice lowering slightly. Robin noticed that change. That slightly pained expression. You had that thought, haunting your mind. "How do I compete with that?" Robin felt guilty as she realized how you felt about Steve. She should've known.

"Yeah, why?" Steve asked. "No reason it's just.." Robin rose brow, curious to know if you'd say something. "She's such a priss." You coughed out, looking at the ground. "Yeah, turns out, not really." Steve shrugged. "Are you... Still in love with Nancy?" You asked. "No." Steve answered rather quickly than what Robin would've expected. "Why not?" Robin found herself asking. "I think it's because I found someone a little better for me." He said. Robin rose a brow, looking over at you.

You had a confused expression on your face. "Who?" You asked. "It's crazy really." Steve said, almost as if he were ignoring the question at hand. "Ever since Dustin got home, he's been saying, you know 'you gotta find your Suzie.'" He rambled. "Wait, who's Suzie?" Robin asked. "It's some girl from camp, I guess it's his girlfriend. To be honest with you, I'm not 100% she's real... But that's not really the point. That doesn't matter." Steve said. You opened your mouth to repeat the question but Steve kept talking.

"The point is, this girl; y'know, the one that I like.. It's somebody I didn't even talk to in school. And I don't even know why." He said. You and Robin exchanged a look, you being confused. Was this little monologue about Robin?

To Robin though, it was obvious. After all, how could Steve not like that. That smile, that laugh. Your thoughtfulness. Your wittiness. How could he not fall in love with that? After all... Robin did.

"Maybe 'cause Tommy H. would've made fun of me or I wouldn't be prom king. It's stupid. I mean, Dustin's right, it's all just a bunch of bullshit anyways. " Steve kept talking, despite your silent confusion. "Because, when I think about it, I should've been hanging out with this girl the whole time. First of all, she's hilarious. She's so funny, I feel like this summer, I have laughed harder than I have laughed in a really long time. And she's smart. Way smarter than me. Y'know, she can uh... She can crack Russian codes and then conversate about philosophy and Quantum Theory like it's normal to know those kinds of things. And you know? She's honestly unlike anyone I've ever even met before." He spoke.

Realization hit you as soon as he mentioned quantum theory. You were shocked, sitting there with your lips parted. Robin rested her chin on her knees, looking at you quietly. "Y/n?" Steve gently tapped the stall wall. "Y/n, did you just OD in there?" He asked. "n-no. Still alive Harrington." You breathed.

You all sat in silence before Steve slid underneath the stall, sitting across from you and Robin. "The floor's disgusting." Robin said, you still reeling from the shock. "Yeah, well, I have a bunch of blood and puke on my shirt so..." Steve said making you chuckle. He looked at you, strands of your ponytail coming loose.

"What do you think?" Steve asked, his voice soft. "about?" You asked quietly. "This girl?" he said. "She sounds like a pain in the ass." You said making both of them chuckle. "She's awesome. But... what about the guy?" Steve asked. You looked at him, various memories from the summer flooding your thoughts.

"I think he's on drugs and not thinking straight." You said. "Really? Cause, I think he's thinking a lot more clearer than usual. " Steve said. Your mind wasn't accepting this. "He's not." You halted. Robin looked at you slightly shocked. She could tell you liked him. So what in the hell were you doing?

"he doesn't really know this girl. And if he knew her. Like, really knew her... She'd drive him away." You said. "No. That's not true. No way that is true." Steve said, leaning up. "Steve I-" Your voice broke. "There is no way I live up to what you paint me as. I'm not a genius. I-I'm not this, awesome badass. I'm just me. I'm not... Nancy... I can't... I-I'm not..." Robin leaned off her legs looking at you.

"You're right. You're not Nancy." Robin said. "Which is why I like you." Steve said. You looked at both of them. "Do you remember what I said about Click's class? About me being jealous and like, obsessed?" Robin asked. Both you and Steve nodded, confused on what this had to do with the topic at hand.

"It isn't because I had a crush on Steve. It's because she wouldn't stop staring at him." Robin said. Immediately you caught on, your eyes widening. "Mrs. Click?" Steve asked. Robin let out a nervous chuckle. "Tammy Thompson. I wanted her to look at me. But, she couldn't pull her eyes away from Steve and his stupid hair. And I didn't understand, because he would get bagel crumbs all over the floor. And he asked dumb questions. And you know what, Harrington, you were a douchebag." Robin explained. Steve looked confused but you understood what she was saying. "And Steve didn't even like her! and I would go home and just scream into my pillow." Robin breathed.

"But Tammy Thompson's a girl." Steve said. You weren't looking away from Robin's eyes. She looked like she was on the brink of tears. "And over the summer... I had to watch the same thing happen again." She said. Steve finally understood it.

He wasn't the only one with the crush on you. Robin liked you too. "You're right, Y/n. You're not Nancy Wheeler. Because to both of us, you're so much better." She said, a tear falling down her cheek. You let out a small laugh, crying also. "So here's what's going to happen. Steve, when all of this is over, is going to take you out on a the best fucking date imaginable. And I will become that crazed girl you guys knew for one summer." Robin said.

You looked at Steve, him smiling slightly at you. You put your hand on his knee, looking at him. "There's just one problem Robin." You said. "What?" She asked. "I want you in my life too. I need a best friend who keeps this dork in line." you said. She smiled and you pulled both of them into a hug. "I love you guys." You said. "We love you." Robin said. You wiped your eyes as you pulled away.

Steve smiled at Robin and she nudged him with a smile, nodding to you. He looked at you. "So what do you think? About a date?" Steve asked. "I'm there." You said with a smile. You all let out small chuckles, Steve's hand holding yours.

Steve looked at Robin. She was nervously fidgeting with her hair. "Steve? You OD over there?" Robin asked. "No, I was uh... Just thinking." Steve said. "About?" Robin asked, the nervousness creeping into her tone. "Tammy Thompson. I mean, she's nice and all, but I mean, she's a total dud." He declared. You blinked. "She is not." Robin said defensively. "Yes, she is! She wants to be like a singer! She wants to move to like, Nashville and shit!" He argued. "She has dreams" Robin defended. "She can't even hold a tune!" Steve said. Robin opened her mouth. "I mean... He's not wrong." You agreed.

"See!? She's practically tone deaf. Have you heard her?" Steve asked, Robin and you smiling. "All the time." Robin nodded. Steve started singing in a shitty voice "You see me now tonight" "Shut up" Robin laughed. "You see me now-" "She does not sound like that" Robin laughed. "She sounds exactly- That's a great impersonation of her." Steve said making you giggle. "You sound like a muppet!" You laughed. "She sounds like a muppet! She sounds like a muppet giving birth!" Steve said making you and Robin laugh harder.

Steve then mimicked Kermit "And if you could hold me tight" The three of you all started singing in the goofy voice. "We'll be holding on forever" You all laughed, the door to the bathroom slinging open to Erica and Dustin.

"Okay, what the hell!?" Dustin asked. You all stared at the kid before laughing harder, Steve sliding further onto the ground making you wheeze.

As Dustin warned you three to move your asses, you all moved to the sinks, washing out your mouths. Robin patted you on the back as she left to the small hall that separated the bathrooms. You washed your hands looking over at Steve. "Did you really mean what you said?" You asked. Steve looked over. "Every word." He nodded. You smiled at him slightly and he turned off the sink, facing you. "Dinner. After all of this. What do you say?" Steve asked. You nodded with a smile. "Hell yes Harrington." You said. He smiled, you chuckling.

"Kinda wish you didn't have a busted lip right now." You said. Despite that fact you mentioned, he leaned down, pulling you into a kiss. You tried to be as careful as possible, but any pain Steve might've been experiencing didn't seem to matter. He pulled away after a moment, you smiling back at him. "We should go" You whispered. He nodded, following you out.

As the two of you came out of the bathroom, you fell to the back of the group. There was one thing Dustin noticed though.

Steve was holding your hand.

[demonslayedher]

When shishi-tls translated Taisho Secrets about Kakushi from 1th fanbook, it was written that they can become Kakushi when they "fail to pass the examination". What does it mean? They run away from Final Selection or do not have the strength to get into it.

This is likely in reference to a question in the Q/A style Taisho Secret section, which I'll recap here:

Q. How does one become a Kakushi? A. It seems they are usually Corp members who had to retire due to injury, or people who weren't able to pass the exam but still wanted to contribute to the Demon Slayer Corp in some way.

This does make it seem like it's referring to the Final Selection as this "test" but we can find more clarification in the Kakushi's introduction in Chapter 44 after they tie up Tanjiro and carry him off.

The convoy that handles the aftermath, the Kakushi. They are the troops who take care of things after the Demon Slayer Corps fight demons. They are mostly comprised of people who were not blessed with talent for swordsmanship.

If they didn't have talent for swordsmanship in the first place, this leads me to believe that their Cultivators never allowed them to take part in the Final Selection at all, for that is the final selection. There's no sense sending people to their death if you're fairly certain they won't survive, after all. However, I'd like to take this opportunity to appreciate just how awesome the Kakushi are, swordsmanship skills or not.

Okay, like... they can sew. I can't sew, I'm already super impressed by anyone who can sew. Also, let's think about how many people would be dead if it weren't for their emergency medical expertise. And while they may not be gifted swordsmen (or had to retire), they are super physically fit, very accustomed to carrying people for long distances. Swordsmanship skills or not, these people are not lacking in bravery whatsoever. Look at them. Not a shred of hesitation! You guys look so cool out there, I have so much respect for you!!

Certainly, there are those who are quicker to spring into action than others, and some who may have gotten further than others when it comes to active combat, but I doubt any of them would have had it in them to turn tail and run from the Final Selection. (Except maybe Maeda-san.)

Just because most of them have at least some swordsmanship practice in their background, it doesn't mean all of them do. I'm sure a lot of them had other reasons for signing up as a Kakushi right away to contribute with whatever skills they had; some who lost their families might had known they'd be no good as swordsmen but they could cook or mend things or learn whatever new skills were necessary to support the people fighting their stead. What's very interesting, though, is something the Kakushi (and likewise, swordsmiths) are expected to give up: Their identity. It's hard to say why this might be, perhaps it's a precaution to keep them from being targeted by demons and tortured for information, since they can't defend themselves like swordsmen can. When Tanjiro is carried by a secret method to the swordsmith village, he's not even allowed to learn their names, it's that's serious. That's not to say they totally give up their identities, they keep up personal correspondence with people by name, and form relationships with other people in the Corp all the same, but there's something to be said for the willingness to leave one's identity behind at a moment's notice for the sake of the Corp.

We don't know if the Kakushi receive the same sorts of benefits as the swordsmen, who can earn higher salaries as they advance and who have a father-like figure watching over them from afar, knowing them by name, and remembering them by their wills should they give their life in battle. The Corp moves to support the swordsmens' work, and they are encouraged to focus intensely on their own personal strengths and to do whatever they need to hone them in their own unique way.

Kakushi don't face the same risks, their work is subordinate to the swordsmen. However, they must be proficient in a wider array of basic skills, like astronauts who must be able to do everything from flying spaceships to giving haircuts, for they must be entirely self-reliant for any need that arises, picking up more skills than they ever had interest in. By giving up their identities instead of their lives, its as though Kakushi must set their own egos aside and function for a higher purpose. The spiritual fortitude of this team is on a very different sphere; they need to see the bigger picture, and if that picture calls for them to take action that may kill them, they pick up a sword and do what must be done.

NSFW Alphabet | Naoya Zen'in

NSFW

Naoya Zen'in x GN!Reader

NSFW Alphabet for Naoya under the cut.

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

After Naoya finishes having sex with his spouse he's going to lie next to them. There won’t be much of a cuddling session or a romantic pillow talk; but, he's going to stay next to you until you feel better to get up and clean yourself up.

The aftercare is more about that he's going to want to stay around you after you're both clean and doing you’re doing the duties around the house. He's going to ask you to stay around him during the day. He wouldn't be able to let go of your presence because he doesn’t want to lose the connection he created with you.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

His favorite body part is everything about himself, he can't decide.

His favorite part about you is your eyes. For him, the eyes tell how others are emotionally, and to see you looking at him with a loving gaze makes his heart melt inside.

This also means he expects a lot of eye contact when having sex with you.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

His cum is salty and kind of bittersweet, it's because of his diet.

He will marry you again if you put his cum on your chest when he comes in it. Play with his cum and he'll get an adrenaline rush and will feel extreme love for you.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

Naoya watches porn and hentai. He watches some videos out of curiosity or because they turn him on.

His favorite category on porn sites is related to house duties, by the way. Naoya can't see his spouse sweeping without getting turned on.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

Naoya has had a few partners in the past. They were people he found attractive and that they were all over him because of his rank and family. But those encounters didn't mean much to him.

Naoya during sex with his spouse he likes to think that he knows what he's doing, but he doesn't. However, he's going to pretend as he does. Please, tell him what you like. He's a fast learner.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

Missionary and mating position.

He really likes to look at your face when having sex.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

He's not serious or goofy.

He teases you a lot in the bedroom. He says things that are related to how the naughty side of you is something others don't see at first glance. He will also say dirty remarks about how you're enjoying his cock so much.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

I believe he trims it. He doesn't like the appearance of a big bush. Also, he thinks that trimming it makes his cock look bigger too. His hair is green.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

When Naoya is having sex with you in the bedroom, things can get intimate very fast. During those moments he’ll say that he loves you.

Sex for him is a way to connect with his partner.

Naoya's kinks are degradation, breeding, dom/sub dynamics, size kink. He loves absolutely anything involving power play.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

The bedroom.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

Naoya gets turned on by submissiveness, dominance, lingering, teasing, banter, bickering, and anything. It's very easy to get him going once he has chosen you as his partner. He's always ready to go.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn-offs)

Honestly, this dude is freaky. He'll try a lot of stuff.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

Naoya prefers receiving head than giving it.

He's the one giving it to you when it's your birthday or it's a special holiday. And honestly, he's very good at licking you and getting messy. Had you seen him using his tongue? He knows how to use it to pleasure you. So, it does feel like a present.

If you get pregnant, he will 100% give you head. If you can't, then he will give you head when you had done something for the clan.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

Naoya's pace is rough, he usually gets too excited when having sex so there's going to be A LOT of skin slapping.

He gets a sensual and slow pace when he's feeling down or he's appreciating all that you do for him. It's a very romantic moment when he thrusts to see your reactions and kiss you deeply.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

Naoya likes quickies. They usually happen when he sees you cooking or doing house duties. They're very fast, needy, and desperate. There's not much kissing but a lot of fucking. They happen at least five times a month.

However, he still prefers proper sex as he can drag it out for longer and do more things that he wants to try with you.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

Naoya is not the one proposing the risky stuff. If you want them, you have to ask him.

It takes a lot to get him to agree on certain things, but he'll give them one go because why not, knowledge is power amirite.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

Naoya has a lot of stamina. Had you seen the training of the jujutsu sorcerers?

He can go as much as you want, baby. The first round always takes him not much to finish, but the other ones get progressively longer. It's a fun night, for sure.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

Naoya doesn't like toys, but he has a rope or a pair of handcuffs around. Whatever you do with it, it's up to you.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Naoya likes to tease a lot.

He sneaks up behind you to get you turned on, and then he'll leave and pretend nothing happened. And he'll do that again and again until it's finally time to go to your chamber, where he can have his fun with you.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

Naoya isn't loud. He tries to keep himself very quiet but sometimes a few grunts and low moans escape his lips when something feels very good.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

Naoya enjoys it when you do cosplay during your dirty time together. I insist he's an anime fan and I will push that agenda all day.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

Naoya has a good 7-inch dick on his pants with a pretty mushroom head. He's uncut.

When he's aroused you can see his veins popping out on the skin, some of them look purple and green. If you uncover his head when working on his dick, you're going to find a gorgeous pink flushed mushroom head. He drips a lot of pre-cum from his slit.

His underside vein pops a lot too. And his hard cock slaps directly to his abdomen. His cock curves upward a little bit too, and it's perfect for that friction.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

Very high, someone please have sex with Naoya. He needs it.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterward)

Naoya after sex at night falls asleep very fast. He won't mind if you cuddle him when he's snoozing though.

Fluff Alphabet

A/N: This is a bit of a collab with my bestest best friend @lokistan! The ever amazing Star helped me come up with a question for each letter and she wrote the entirety of “N” herself! Hope you enjoy :)

Permanent Tag List: @lucywrites02​ @frostedgiant​ @lunarmoon8​ @twhiddlestonsstuff​ @lokistan​ @lowkeyorlokificrecs​ @gaitwae​ @whatafuckingdumbass​ @castiels-majestic-wings​ @kozkaboi​ @cozy-the-overlord​ @birdgirl90​ @myraiswack​ @mythicalgarlicknot​ @what-a-flammable-heart​ @mlqcikemenmc​

A=Adoration: What do they adore about you? • Everything. How understanding you are. Loki’s been through a lot, and you’re always patient with him. Even if he was nervous about the relationship in the beginning, you let him take his time, reassuring him you could go slow. And knowing all that, you always checked if he was alright, making sure you weren’t doing anything that made him uncomfortable or weren’t going to fast. He didn’t think anyone else would be quite as considerate as you.

B=Beauty: What do they find most beautiful about you? • Your smile. When you look at him with your face all lit up, he thinks his heart is going to burst from joy. No one else had ever looked at him quite as softly, as kindly, as genuinely as that. He likes to think about your smile as he drifts off at night. It gives him the best dreams.

C=Cuddles: Do they like cuddling? • Not at first. Loki is very guarded and letting anyone into his space is a big decision. Once he warms up to you, however, all he wants to do is snuggle. His preference between big spoon and small spoon depends on the day. When he’s feeling particularly antsy or small, all he wants is to be held in your arms as if sheltered from the world. But on his better days, when he just wants to protect his little mortal, he likes to wrap his body around yours, keeping the two of you in your own little bubble of happiness.

D=Date: What’s their favorite date you’ve had? • The first one. He was too nervous at first to go out with you in public, resulting in a dinner for two in his quarters at the Tower. It was happiness like he’d never known before, the first of many soft, quiet moments you two would share. Loki remembers being too nervous to take your hand in his and being pleasantly surprised when you were the one to hesitantly intertwine your fingers together. He doesn’t think he’ll ever forget a single moment of that night.

E=Embarrassed: What about you makes them flustered? • The little things. Like when you take his hand in public. Or say you love him. Or throw a smile his way during a debriefing. Or laugh at one of his jokes. Everything you do seems so natural, so genuine, that it throws him off guard for a moment. When he realizes that’s because all the small things are reflections of how much you love him, his face goes bright red!

F=Forever: How do they plan the rest of your life together going? • Honestly, Loki doesn’t like to think about it. He just knows he needs to be with you, and that’s enough. Though, he did find a spell to expand a mortal lifespan, and plans on asking you if it’s ok to use it. If you say yes, he imagines whisking you away to a cabin in the woods for a while, spending some of your many years just basking in each other’s presence. If you say no, that’s fine too; he’ll still treasure every moment you have together and knows he’ll see you again some day.

G=Gifts: Do they like giving gifts? Receiving them? • Loves giving them; mixed feelings on receiving. Loki adores you so wholly and completely, he thinks it only natural he gives you a gift here and there. Ok, at least twice a month. If he sees something that reminds him of you—and most things do in some way—why not gift it to you? You always love them and want to give back to him. It always makes Loki confused because he had never seen himself worthy of such tokens of love. With every one you give him, you change his mind a little more.

H=Hello: What’s their favorite way to greet you? • With a kiss. Nothing long or extremely passionate, usually just a peck on the cheek or back of the hand. Sometimes, he’s too nervous to say he loves you out loud, but the little kiss says it all. Besides, the god considers it an honor to be allowed to be the one to give you such affections, and he plans on making the most of the privilege.

I=Impression: What was their first impression of you? • He’s intrigued. Loki never liked to have particularly strong feelings either way toward someone. But, despite being the God of Lies, he doesn’t like to deceive himself. There was some unplaceable thing about you that drew him in. Eventually, he realized it was because you never scorned him or cowered for him. No, you were always attentive and interested in listening to him. For someone like Loki, that was rare, so of course he wanted to stick around you.

J=Journal: Do they keep a journal? • Yes. Not religiously or anything. If he misses a few nights, it’s no big deal. He does like to quickly jot down a few thoughts when he can, though, usually about time he spent with you. Then when he can’t be with you at the moment for whatever reason, he can pull it out and flip through, reliving the memories with a smile on his face.

K=Kisses: What’s their favorite part of you to kiss? • The back of your hand. Asgard was a fairly formal place, and having been raised a prince, it was common for him to bow and place a kiss there. But with you, it was different. More meaningful. It was almost a way of bringing his old culture with him, yet making it his own. He wouldn’t always bow when he did it. In fact, more often than not, it was sans bow. Instead, if you were walking down the street hand in hand, he’d lift yours to his lips and plant a quick, gentle kiss there. Or if you were sitting together on the couch, he would do the same. Really, they were a good, fast little reminder of his affection for you at any time of the day. How adorably flustered it made you was just a bonus.

L=Love: How do they tell you they love you? • Through the things he does. Sometimes it’s hard for Loki to actually say the words because of his fears, so he opts to show you. He’ll ask if it’s ok to take care of you if it’s something bigger, not wanting to make you uncomfortable. So if you have a tough day, he’ll ask if it’d be alright if he draws you a bath or gives you a massage. If it’s a smaller thing, he doesn’t mention it. He’s not looking for praise, he just wants to show he loves you. So, sometimes he’ll make your favorites for dinner or dessert, or suggest watching your favorite movie or comfort TV show. Of course, you always notice and respond with “I love you, too.”

M=Mischief: Do they prank you? Prank with you? • Absolutely. Loki is the God of Mischief, a title he prides himself on much more than God of Lies. He never does anything too serious to you, just small things. Like convincing you of something absurd or making an illusion of a rather large bug, just enough to make you jump. Even better is pulling pranks with you. Like convincing Thor everyone but him can lift Mjolnir now. Or making Tony believe he’s going crazy and that beeping he keeps hearing is in his mind. And the best part of it all is when Loki gets to hear your beautiful laugh.

N=Never: What's something they would never do to you? • Push you. Loki understands that some things take time and patience. He would never pressure you to do something that you're not ready to do or say. Loki knows what the weight of the world feels like and would never put you through that. 

O=Original: How original are they when it comes to wooing you? • It can go either way. After all, not too many people have magic at their disposal, and Loki loves using it to impress you. Then again, he loves to throw in cheesy pickup lines that make you grin like an idiot because he just looks so adorable saying them.

P=Protective: How protective are they of you? • Very, but he tries not to let it show. Loki doesn’t want to stifle you or make you think he believes you’re weak. You’re actually one of the strongest people he knows. Still, he always watches over you and checks in on you, making sure you’re alright and no one is upsetting you. And if someone has, oh boy, they better watch out because he certainly will have some choice words for them. Of course, that would come with a threat to the person not to let you know he’d spoken to them. Unless he’d gotten your permission to intervene.

Q=Quiet: What quiet, peaceful moments do they appreciate the most? • The ones where you don’t need to be doing anything else. So many people always need to be talking, but with the storm of thoughts always swirling in his mind, Loki appreciates the quiet. The fact that you two can just lay together saying nothing means so much to Loki. He likes just enjoying your calming presence, looking into each other’s eyes, almost as if communicating through the silence, the special kind that only those as close as you two could truly understand and appreciate.

R=Romance: How romantic are they? • Extremely. Loki loves to sweep you off your feet. He’s a little shy about it at first, but once he’s comfortable, he’s constantly writing/reading you love poems and songs. Candlelit dinners become commonplace and you find rose petals lining your way the table more often than not. And if you ever watch a rom-com, you can bet Loki will be taking notes.

S=Sharing: Are they good at sharing their emotions with you? • Sometimes. If his fears of you leaving get the better of him or cause the problem, he doesn’t really want to talk about it and risk making you upset. Instead, he just lets you hold him when you can tell something’s wrong. But for most other cases he slowly learns how to trust and open up to you, telling you what’s going on inside his mind.

T=Trust: How much do they trust you? • A lot. There's not a single other person in the universe Loki would ever let hold him the way you do. He doesn’t tell anyone else his feelings, either. He loves you and knows you’re there for him, though, so he trusts you won’t tell anyone else. It helps that you trust him so much too.

U=Upset: How do they comfort you when your upset? • By holding you. Even if you’re not at the point where you need to cry, Loki will encompass your body with his, tucking your head under his chin. He’ll whisper sweet nothings in your ear until you feel better, rubbing his hands up and down your back. When you finally look up at him, he’ll shower your face with kisses and ask if you need to talk. If you say no, he just keeps holding you for as long as you’ll let him. If you say yes, he listens intently, offering words of encouragement or advice when you finish. He always makes sure to tell you how proud of you he is for doing your best.

V=Vulnerable: When was the first time they were vulnerable with you? • The first time his nightmares woke you up. You’d both fallen asleep on the sofa watching a movie. Unfortunately, he was startled from his slumber by the dreams that so often plagued him. You rubbed his back while he caught his breath and calmed down. Once he was doing better, you offered to listen to what was wrong. Unable to keep it in any longer, he broke down in your arms. After sharing with you, he felt better than he had in a long time. He didn’t have another nightmare for two months.

W=When: When did they realize they were in love with you? • The first time he said the words. He hadn’t thought about it, so it wasn’t premeditated. You two were just swaying to some music, and you’d looked up to place a quick kiss to his lips. He just looked at you and said the three-word phrase. You replied immediately, seemingly not thinking about it either. Loki realized his heart had known it before his brain, but it was in that moment he realized how true the words were. He loved you.

X=Xaphoon: What kind of music reminds them of you? • Classical music with big, sweeping movements. So often they start off soft, feather-light. Then they crescendo into something bigger, something brighter, something dramatic. It reminds him of the way he feels for you, how it swelled into that big moment of pure and complete love and adoration. If the piece calmed back down again, that was the best, since he’s feelings had settled into his bones, becoming part of him.

Y=Yearning: Do they yearn for you when you’re apart? • Very much so. If he has to go on a mission for a while or accompany Thor to Asgard, he misses you terribly. He’ll look at photos or make an illusion of you, but it’s not the same as actually having you there. When he gets back home, the first thing he does is run into your arms, telling you how much he missed you. The sudden confession he never exactly plans always made him blush.

Z=Zoo: Would they want any pets? • Only if you did. Loki was kind of neutral toward the whole pet thing. Sure, if someone else had one he’d always go and pet it, but having one of his own wasn’t that big of a deal to him. If you did want one, though, Loki would immediately take you to find just the right companion. And once you brought it back home, he’d love to play with it or look at it or tell it how cute it is. Practically becoming its best friend, he can be easily persuaded to adopt one or two or a dozen more. And, of course, he’s so absolutely adorable with it, you’d risk your heart exploding from a cuteness overload and let him pick the one to adopt that time.

Lost Eyes | Schlatt x Reader

This is my entry for @sugarsoftie​‘s 600 follower special! Again, congrats for the 600 followers! “I can’t believe I used to love you” | Angst | Staring into his eyes, you know he is no longer the one you gave your heart to.

A melody filled the air as people filed into the walls of Manburg. You stood at the sides, welcoming those that came to attend the festival. You shake hands with them as they move to the main section of the festival. As the last of the guests enter, you turn and look over the place. You note the decorations strewn around, set up by Tubbo and Fundy. The colorful balloons and banners making the festival look welcoming and warm. Your eyes trailed to the many booths and stalls open, the vendors preparing their products. You see Niki preparing baked goods by her stall, the smell of freshly made bread wafting through the air. Your train of thought was interrupted when someone put their hand on your shoulder. You flinched in surprise, turning around to face them. 

You breathed a sigh of relief as it was only Tubbo. “Don’t startle me like that! I could have gotten a heart attack Tubs.” You exaggerate, letting out a chuckle. You hear Tubbo giggle too, but he stops as he tries to speak. “Sorry (Y/N), but uh, Schlatt wants to speak you before the festivities all properly start.”

“Ah, what does our dear president want now.” You sigh, nodding to Tubbo in acknowledgment and turning to leave for whatever business Schlatt may have with you.

You were an advisor and cabinet member of L’manburg, no Manburg when Schlatt came to power. Despite not being an original citizen and just a bystander and audience member in the election, Schlatt had decided you were worthy of being part of his cabinet, you think. When the original founder of the country was cast out of his creation, you had opted not to attack and join the ones who smelled blood and attacked, following the orders of the current president.

You took to your assigned task efficiently, you followed through with the decisions made in the cabinet meetings and gave out your thoughts and opinions on the matter. Though you did not fail to notice the glances the president threw at you. When you decided to confront Schlatt about his staring, he had bravely spoken of his interest for you. Stating that your sharp mind and intellect, along with the fact that you were on good terms with most of the people in the smp, were qualities he saw as admirable. You remember your flushed cheeks over the praise, the warm feeling in your chest, the butterflies in your stomach.

But the thing you would never forget would be the look he gave you while you two were alone in his office. His eyes full of desire and passion, for you.

You stop your thought when you arrive at the podium. Schlatt is speaking with his vice-president, Quackity, with a topic you couldn’t quite hear well at the distance you were at. You waited for a few minutes until Schlatt let out an exasperated sigh and walked down the stage, coming to face you. “Ey (Y/N), I’ve been waiting for you my favorite cabinet member” he cackles.

You put a small smile on your face at his words. “That’s nice of you to say, but if I am your favorite then why is Big Q the Vice-President?” you joke, letting out a giggle. “If I were a spectator, I’d point out how it seems you favor him over me.” You continue.

You hear him let out a deep bawl of laughter, which eggs you on to continue your giggling. “Darling, if I didn’t have him as my Vice-President, I wouldn’t be leading Manburg now, would I?” he jested, gesturing into the air.

You let out a chuckle at his statement. “Well, what did you want to speak with me about?” you ask, staring at the horned man in front of you. He begins to compose himself and pats his attire down to make sure he looks presentable. “You remember of my plans for this great country, right?” he asks.

You nod in response. “Schlatt, of course I do, I am actively assisting in the affairs of the state or have you forgotten?” you tease.

“Yeah yeah, well I got some news from a little birdie that someone on my cabinet has been colluding with Pogtopia.” He deadpanned, a steely look on his features. “And I know just how to deal with that little mole.”

“Well, you know how I invited Technoblade to this festival, well I was thinking…why not have him kill our traitor. It’s appropriate! The best warrior of the rebellion striking down their own informant!” he declared, a wicked grin on his face.

“Who…is this mole anyway? I have a sneaking suspicion it is Fundy; his dear old dad is the exiled leader. Or perhaps it’s Niki, she and Wilbur are close.” You put out, gripping your chin in thought.

“Tubbo, the one I made my right-hand man.”

Your face pales, of course that Tubbo would come to the rebels’ aid. Tommy is his best friend; he was willing to do anything for the boy. And with knowing of what Schlatt’s plans are for the kid, you feel dread settle in. How could he think of something so gruesome for the boy?

“You, you can’t possibly be serious Schlatt?!” you shout, mouth agape in shock as your mind races. “He…Tubbo is just a child! You can’t do that to him!” you declare, looking up to glare at the man in front of you.

“And you think that absolves him of his betrayal to Manburg, to me, to US!” he retorted, bringing a hand up in anger to rake through his dark locks. “I know you care about the kid but c’mon, he’s a traitor! You can’t hold any love for him.” He added, before turning to leave and walk up the stage.

“This conversation isn’t over. You can’t walk away!” You grab his arm to stop him, but he grabs your wrist and wrenches it away from him. He turns back around and raises your hand above your head.

“I can, and I will. I’m the president of Manburg. I am it’s ruler, it’s law, and I can do whatever the hell I want!” he shouted in your face. Your eyes widen, this was the first time you and he had ever gotten into an argument. You usually could temper the situation before it escalated, with you reluctantly agreeing into whatever he wanted.

You stare into his dark orbs. These eyes that you once loved, when they playfully glared at you, closed when you let out a joke, and gave a loving gaze whenever you helped in his plans. These eyes now something you feared. A deep darkness threatening to swallow you whole, consume your very essence and force you to submit to its darkest desires. These eyes that no calm you but induce a fear of being the next hurdle to be removed.

You recoil in panic, letting out a soft sob and stare down at the ground. Tears pool in the corner of your eyes as Schlatt let’s go of your wrist. “This is an order, (Y/N), stay in the white house for the rest of the festival. We’ll have a talk after all of this, resist, and I’ll give you a first-row seat to Tubbo’s execution. Got it?” he threatened, turning to walk up the stage. Leaving you to lean your back against the foundation. You let the tears spill out, like a dam finally being opened, your feelings flowed out. Each of your tears holding a fragment of the many emotions you felt. Panic, fear, anger, guilt, pain, betrayal.

“I can’t believe I used to love you…” you mutter out, pulling your knees into your chest and continued sobbing. The noise of the festivities blocking out your wailing.

A/N: I do hope this isn’t a bit too late. I’ve just been not feeling well these past few days. Like...not up to eat, I’m always tired, and not many things get me happy anymore. I dunno, maybe it’s just that seasonal down periods. Anyways, I’m still in the process of writing the headcanon requests but desperately wanted to get this out. Hope you enjoy!

REINER SIMP BACK FOR MORE!! If you're interested, of course, fluff alphabet for the absolute blonde of my dreams???

WELCOME BACK, I had so much fun with this one <3

Every time I write for post time skip Reiner it ends up just the slightest bit angsty, so just be aware

Again, I'm using the prompt by @snk-warriors

Post time skip of course! :)

Fluff Alphabet: Reiner

A ctivities - What do they like to do with their s/o? How do they spend their free time with them?

The activity doesn't really matter to him, he really just likes being with them. He’d do any kind of activity that they suggest because he loves the way their eyes light up doing things they’re passionate about. But, if his SO likes going on fun dates, he’d definitely be down to plan something. Probably still something pretty small and intimate, maybe like a picnic or a walk through a pretty area.

B eauty - What do they admire about their s/o? What do they think is beautiful about them?

He definitely loves his SO’s eyes, especially the way they light up when they’re excited. He also loves getting to watch them while they’re moving around or doing something, he thinks they’re so amazing just existing. More than anything, though, he really admires their personality and spirit.

C omfort - How would they help their s/o when they feel down/have a panic attack etc.?

Reiner wouldn’t know instinctively what to do at all, but he’d be so concerned. He’d probably just sit with them quietly the first time, and then have a discussion later about what they’d like him to do in the future. And he definitely commits that to memory, so the next time they’re down or anxious, he knows exactly what to do. He has his fair share of negative experience with mental health and image, so he knows at least to some extent what they’re going through, and he’ll do whatever he can to make sure they no longer have to feel that way.

D reams - How do they picture their future with their s/o?

I think it takes a while for him to actually imagine his SO being in his future just because he’s endured so much loss in his life, but one he finally allows himself to start to make plans, he definitely has a nice rosy little vision for the future. It’s total domestic bliss, with a cozy home, a vegetable garden, and maybe even kids (depending on his SO, of course). He really craves that peaceful security of a boring, stable life because he’s never gotten to experience it before, so thinking of the future makes him really happy.

E qual - Are they the dominant one in the relationship, or rather passive?

It’s definitely pretty equal. He doesn’t go into relationships with any preconceived notions of playing an active or passive role, so it really just depends on his SO and how their dynamic falls. But for the most part, he’s happiest when he’s able to alternate between the two, both comforting and being comforted.

F ight - Would they be easy to forgive their s/o? How are they fighting?

He’s honestly not great with conflict. He really hates fighting and would never instigate a fight, but when it does occur, he gets hurt pretty easily. He has so much going on in his own head, and conflict with his SO just adds to internal self doubt. But, since he really doesn’t want to fight, he’s always open and willing to make up at any time. 

G ratitude - How grateful are they in general? Are they aware of what their s/o is doing for them?

Reiner is so grateful. He is constantly showering them in praise and thank you’s, and he just feels so damn lucky to be with them. Every small act of service or gift from them makes his heart swell, and he goes out of his way to make sure that they they know just how much he appreciates them.

H onesty - Do they have secrets they hide from their s/o? Or do they share everything?

I definitely think he would be very honest. Secrets put space between the two of them, which is the last thing he wants. He would much rather have an awkward conversation about something than lie to his SO, which would make him so guilty. He also leans on them for support a lot, and he knows that they can’t support each other if they’re not totally honest.

I nspiration - Did their s/o change them somehow, or the other way around? Like trying out new things or helped them overcome personal problems?

Reiner’s SO has such a positive influence on him. He has a lot of self doubt and a lot of fear when it comes to relationships and commitment, but over time, he began to let himself rely on them and make himself vulnerable. They honestly probably inspire him to be more open and positive, and their optimism rubs off on him, even if it’s just slightly.

J ealousy - Do they get jealous easily? How do they deal with it?

I don’t think he gets jealous often, but he does have a habit of not dealing with it properly. He would never be rude to his SO, he just starts to pull away because his self doubt keeps saying they would be better off with someone else. It’s not hard to help him relax, though, it really just takes some quiet words from his SO and a reminder that he is enough for them.

K iss - Are they a good kisser? What was the first kiss like?

He was really nervous for their first kiss, for literally no reason. He was very careful with his general timing, but in the moment, it probably seemed a bit abrupt just because he was so nervous. He’s a really good kisser, and after the first kiss, it’s a regular occurrence.

L ove Confession - How would they confess to their s/o?

In terms of asking his SO out for the first time, I think he was very nervous and probably make it pretty awkward just because he kept trying to shrink into the background. But if we’re talking about the first time he told them he loves them, it wasn’t awkward at all. It was probably late at night and they were laying in bed together when it really just hit Reiner how happy he was, and how lucky he was to have them. He said it so casually, as if it was already a part of their routine instead of something foreign and new.

M arriage - Do they want to get married? How do they propose? What would the marriage be like?

I think the idea of marriage would scare him just slightly, but it is appealing to him. Again, it’s that idea of stability and security that just seems so cozy and comfortable for the future. He doesn’t indulge in making plans for the future often, but when he does finally let himself think about it, it makes him really happy. He spends lots of time planning the most romantic proposal, maybe even something public if his SO is comfortable with it. The idea of getting married makes him so excited that he wants to share it with everyone. He doesn’t necessarily have a great eye for decoration or color, but he’s so eager to help, so together, they plan a beautiful wedding. Probably small and intimate, and absolutely lovely.

N icknames - What do they call their s/o?

I think nicknames make him a bit embarrassed, so most of the time, it’s just “honey” or your name. Your name is amazing, and he’s more than happy to keep saying it.

O n Cloud Nine - What are they like when they are in love? Is it obvious for others? How do they express their feelings?

When Reiner’s in love, especially at the beginning, everyone can tell. He just gives off an air of contentedness and confidence from being with his SO, laughing a bit more often than usual and frequently being caught zoning out while smiling into the distance. It’s almost laughable how much the stoic man’s behaviors change when he’s finally that happy.

P DA - Are they upfront about their relationship? Do they brag with their s/o in front of others? Or are they rather shy to kiss etc. when others are watching?

He’s pretty private in general. He holds onto his SO’s hand in public and offers them his arm while walking, but otherwise, they don’t like to show off in public. In terms of how much he talks about them, I think it depends on his SO. If they’re a private person, he won’t bring it up a single time. But if he can tell they don’t mind, he’d talk about them with his friends and introduce them as his SO, and he’d be happy getting to show everyone how amazing they are.

Q uirk - Some random ability they have that's beneficial in a relationship.

He’s always warm, even in the middle of the winter. If his SO is ever cold, he offers his jacket (because he’s probably overheating anyway), or he can just warm them up with a hug. It’s really sweet.

R omance - How romantic are they? What would they do to make their s/o happy? Cliché or rather creative?

It makes him pretty embarrassed, but he really is very romantic! He can definitely appreciate the cliched romantic tropes, but I think he also likes to be creative. He love surprising his SO to see the look on their face, and he just loves making them happy. When they’re happy, he’s happy!

S upport - Are they helping their s/o achieve their goals? Do they believe in them?

Reiner has a lot of doubts in his life, especially for himself. But when it comes to his SO? There is nothing they can’t do. He believes in them 100%, and he will do whatever he can to support them. 

T hrill - Do they need to try out new things to spice out your relationship? Or do they prefer a certain routine?

He’s absolutely someone who prefers a nice stable routine. Not that he won’t go out and try new things, especially if his SO would like to, but he just prefers to stick to their normal plans. Being able to plan head is a luxury for him, and he appreciates the calmness behind it.

U nderstanding - How good do they know their partner? Are they empathetic?

He knows his SO very well, and he’s very empathetic. He can’t read their mind, and he does still need lots of communication, but he genuinely does almost feel their pain with them. He’s great support through a difficult time because he can empathize so well.

V alue - How important is the relationship to them? What is it’s worth in comparison to other things in their life?

Once his relationship becomes serious, it’s one of the most important aspects of his life. Part of becoming serious with his SO is allowing himself to open up to and rely on them, which creates such a deep level of emotional intimacy. He really wouldn’t trade them for the world.

W ild Card - A random Fluff Headcanon.

He makes his SO coffee every morning. If they don’t like coffee, he makes tea, or maybe even just pours them a glass of orange juice. If they don’t live together, he will literally drive to bring it to them. In his eyes, it’s not only an excuse to get to see them every morning, but he likes making sure that they start off every morning happy.

X OXO - Are they very affectionate? Do they love to kiss and cuddle?

He’s very affectionate! Sometimes it makes him a little bit uncomfortable to be vulnerable like that, but he likes having his SO close to him. Definitely big on cuddling, again because he likes to be close to them, and because it makes him feel safe.

Y earning - How will they cope when they're missing their partner?

He definitely gets a bit sad when they’re away for a long time. If possible, he likes to check up on them in the morning. Otherwise, he just tries to keep himself busy. I think he also gets a bit anxious when they’re gone because they’re such a source of support for him, so he’s very relieved when they return.

Z eal - Are they willing to go to great lengths for the relationship? If so, what kind?

He’s absolutely willing to do what it takes to keep his relationship strong. As much as he loves his routine, he’s always open to make changes that will keep things running smoothly and keep his SO happy. They’re very important to him, so of course he would go to great lengths for them.

Days 8/9 - Panic & Voice Loss

Wild never thought he would return to his old self, and that was a good thing. The stoic, silent, serious knight he used to be was not who he really was, and even if it took losing his memory to figure that out, he was much happier now that he felt free to live up to his nickname. At least that’s what he thought.

But then Warriors had gotten hurt. It wasn’t the injury itself that caused Wild to break down, nor was it witnessing the attack; but rather the aftermath of it. Once Wild, Future, and Time had returned to the village and they saw the true severity of the situation, it was hard to believe the Captain had survived at all. He’d make it, Hyrule had said. The healer was doing everything he could, and slowly but steadily was making progress. Though some weren’t quite so optimistic.

The kids— or Mask and Wind at least— must have overheard one of these less hopeful conversations, because Wild found them in the hallway just around the corner from Warriors’ room. Mask was sobbing, and Wind was trying to comfort him.

“Wind… Do you think Wars is going to die?”

“What? No! He’s way too tough for some overgrown Lizalfos to take him down!”

"It's just… I overheard the others talking. They're saying he might not make it. I don't know what I would do if—"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Link…? Is dad going to be okay?”

A much younger Wild sat beside his little sister outside the castle infirmary. Their father had returned from a mission gravely wounded, and it was unclear whether he would survive. His sister— Wild mentally kicked himself because he still couldn’t remember her name— could not stop crying at the thought of possibly losing their dad. Their mom had died giving birth to her, so losing dad meant they’d be all alone.

“Of course he will! He’s way too strong to let something like this stop him!” Link tried to assure her.

…He was not okay. Minutes, hours passed before the news came out that their father did not make it. Wild’s sister was inconsolable. Wild stood there in stunned silence. He’d wanted to follow in his father’s footsteps, to become a knight as well. But he didn’t expect it to happen like this; because now with their father gone, he was the only one left to protect his sister and their home.

He swore he’d be strong for her, and for everyone else in his life. He couldn’t let grief get the best of him if he was going to protect them all…

So he vowed to remain completely silent from then on, in order to appear strong and carry any burden he was asked to, without question. Without complaint. Without failure.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wild snapped out of the memory so suddenly that he stumbled backwards and slammed into the wall. It took him a moment to remember where he was and what was happening. The inn… Warriors… The kids… That had been what triggered it! Seeing the parallels between what he witnessed with Wind and Mask, and what had occurred with him and his sister as a child.

Wind was going through the same thing Wild had. Not thinking clearly, Wild immediately jumped to the conclusion that the memory was an indication that Warriors was not going to make it. Wind was going to end up just like Wild. Wild couldn’t let that happen, he couldn’t let the poor kid lose the optimism and innocence and spunk that he had so much of, that kept the group going even when everything seemed hopeless. He decided in that moment that Wind didn’t have to worry about it; Wild would carry that burden in his stead. He would be the strong one again. He would be the one to look after and protect Wind. He had to be… He couldn’t let anyone else go through what he had.

“Cub?” Twilight asked, appearing behind the Champion, “You okay? I saw you fall… You’re not hurt, are you?”

Wild tried to respond, but his voice wouldn’t work. But it didn’t have to; silence would be better anyway, right? Wild shook his head in response to Twilight’s question.

“What’s wrong? Talk to me.” Twilight urged. Wild, again, shook his head.

I’m fine, he signed, standing up without another word, or gesture for that matter. He noticed the two kids had fallen asleep in the hallway, and decided to carry them to the other room so they could sleep in a proper bed. Twilight helped, clearly concerned for Wild, but Wild said nothing.

He felt he could not speak again unless Warriors turned out to be alright in the end.
