#I got super emotional every time she hugged me she was so sweet

First Christmas

Yelena Belova fluff x female reader

Could also be read as x any gendered reader as neutral language was used incidentally

This is just a super short fluffy fic I was thinking about while in my room staring at my Christmas tree thinking about Yelena and Nat. I’ll definitely be writing more Yelena stuff btw, she’s my wife afterall. Merry Christmas for anyone who celebrates🎄if this season/month is difficult for you I hope it passes as quickly and smoothly as possible and if not have an amazing time doing whatever you get up to x

———————————————————————

It was Christmas Eve, the first you’d had since meeting Yelena, and you wanted her to enjoy it fully. Whilst she was out you’d decorated the flat with an inordinate amount of rainbow Christmas lights. In each corner you’d placed tacky light up snowmen and on each table you’d placed various ornaments and trinkets from your personal collection of Christmas crap. As for the tree, that had been tricky, but you’d managed to put something quite nice together with the help of too much tinsel and ribbons.

When your phone flashed that it was 8pm you admired your handiwork, feeling satisfied and hopeful that Yelena would be cheered. There was always that worry she’d climb into bed without saying a word, covered in cuts you’d have to clean while she retreated into her head but when the door opened you knew it was a good night.

“Y/N!”

You struggled to search her face for signs of injury, distracted by her beauty that never failed to dazzle you. She dropped her bag, refusing to take her wide eyes off the decorations you’d laid before her. “Did you rob a toy store for me?”

“No but I would.”

You watched her reactions intently. “Do you like it?” Without hesitation Yelena beamed at you, outstretching her arms for a hug. “I love it, you are so sweet.” Her Russian accent shone through as she spoke in your ear, hugging you tightly.

“I made snowman cookies,” you gestured to the nearby plate as Yelena clapped her hands in approval. “And I’ve got a load of Christmas movies we can binge, if you’re up for it.” As your girlfriend excitedly flipped through the pile of dvds you’d brought out to play you glanced at the presents under the tree.

Yelena had only recently opened up to you about her childhood and how her parents weren’t really her parents and that Christmas wasn’t real for her, just for show. It had broken your heart to hear her so quietly recall opening empty boxes only to pretend to celebrate Easter a moment later for the camera. She deserved real presents, real memories and a real Christmas. You’d bought her a lot, you knew that, probably too much but she deserved it. She was your girl.

Yelena rolled her sore neck in a circle, trying to crack it. When it did she turned to look at you - watched you watching her every movement and smiled knowingly. “Pyjamas?”

“Trying to get me out of my clothes already Y/L/N?”

She was even more beautiful when she smiled, her large eyes lit up. They were so intense and emotive but soft and calming all at once, you felt a surge of love towards her as you watched her change. Neither of you had said it yet but the feeling was there and only growing stronger. As had become ritualistic, you kissed every scar on Yelena’s body before doing the buttons for her. Something about helping a Black Widow assassin with basic tasks made you both feel comforted. Safe.

“Elf or Home Alone first?”

Yelena shrugged and you remembered that of course she’d seen neither.

——————————————————————

You managed to make the cookies last until half 11 at night, then it was time to break out the quality street tin while you half watched Elf. “These are a-ma-zing.” Yelena grinned before scoffing several orange creams as you had the last green triangle. You beamed at her, feeling endlessly lucky that she was yours at all.

“I got you something…”

She can’t help it, her eyes narrow in suspicion. Why would you be giving her something?

“I know it’s not officially Christmas yet but it almost is.” You pulled out the bag from under the tree and passed it to Yelena whose eyes were glazed over. A bag? Just for her? Of…presents? She hesitated, looking at you for permission just waiting for it to all be either a joke or a dream.

“Open them, they’re yours.”

Her heart sang at your words. She opened the first enthusiastically: lipstick and lip liner for the bolder makeup she’d been enjoying recently. “I love this colour!” You grin, watching her open the earrings and heels next. Everything you bought was bold and beautiful, like her.

“If you don’t like them I’ll take them b-“ but before you could finish Yelena’s body hit your own as she pulled you into a forceful hug. You were sure in that moment, as her hair got caught in your earring and her fingers gripped your back, that she’d never held you so tight. “Merry Christmas.” You whispered, still holding her. She hadn’t told you but ever since the two of you had met, Yelena had been half expecting you to find some excuse to leave - that you’d find yourself unable to accept her or see her as a normal girlfriend. Nothing could have been further from the truth. She was everything and more.

“I love you.”

Shit.

You’d said it aloud. Hugging her back, burying your flushed face in her plaited hair you prayed for a do over. A pause button until she turned your head to face hers and kiss you gently. “I love you too.” she beamed. Something damp dripped onto your fingers that cradled Yelena’s face, that was when you realised she was crying. All of your body screamed at you to ‘fix this’ ‘help her’ but Yelena only rubbed your knuckles and kissed your other hand, a warm smile on her lips. “Finally, a good Christmas.”

Nobody will ever make me feel so special and appreciate as that little girl in my school who saw me one day and went OH MY GOD YOU'RE A FAAAAAAIRY and then proceeded to hug me every time she saw me

ahoy🗣️

can I request an anxiety/reader where reader represents the Love emotion?

like we're a little extroverted and flirty (and kinda serve tbh) but we are gentler around her and help her calm down when she's about to have an attack?

(I'm normal about her I swear💪)

Ahoy to you too! Yess I finally got a request for my girl!! She’s so cute, I swear-

Anyway, that’s an awesome request, I love the concept of the reader being a Love emotion!

~Anxiety x Love emotion reader hcs~

Anxiety wasn’t really interested in romance, partly because she figured she didn’t have a shot at it anyway, and because she thought it seemed way too stressful. That was until a new emotion appeared in the HQ, the Love emotion.

You were so sweet, kind, pretty and even flirtatious, causing the small orange emotion to quickly become smitten.

She would feel her heartbeat speed up x100 whenever you were around.

The poor girl constantly stressed about making a good impression on you, seeming interesting, and wanting to know more about you, but she couldn’t let you know that she’s excited, or else she would seem too intense, and so on.

Since you represented the emotion of love, your job would be to control Riley’s crushes, feelings of love, horniness, and all that. Anxiety would love to watch you work, observing as your hands glided over the console, making it light up with a soft, pink color. She swoons over everything you do

Anxiety sometimes even slightly envied you. Your job was to make Riley feel all these positive and exciting feelings, whilst hers was to worry her and make her anxious. She knew it was all to protect their girl, but she didn’t wanna feel like a burden. On top of that, you were also so extrovert and outgoing, speaking so easily with all of the emotions, even Ennui, which was something she admired and slightly envied as well. She would overthink it, feeling like she wasn’t a good enough conversationalist, and fearing that she came off as boring to you.

The fact that you where so flirty towards all the emotions, but more gentle around her would leave her with sleepless nights filled with overthinking.

“They act so flirtatiously towards everybody, but somehow different towards me! I mean, they’re still flirting, but it still feels different! Does that mean they like me less?! Oh no no no, that would be so bad! But what if they do..? And then they’ll slowly stop talking to me, because they secretly hate me, then they’ll stop looking at me, or even being in the same room as me, and I’ll die alone! Ah!!”

She always thinks so negatively about every single situation, not concerning that it could be because you liked her.

It was only after you helped her calm down when she was about to have an anxiety attack that she realized that maybe her feelings were mutual. The way you had gently hugged her, rubbed soothing circles on her back,y kissed her head and whispered sweet nothings into her ear made her absolutely melt. She knew she needed to confess, or else it would drive her insane!

Anxiety spend many many nights, filling out countless notebooks with her frantic writing, trying to figure out the perfect way to confess. She knew you loved romance, so she wanted to be romantic and sweep you off your feet. One problem though, she was very bad at romance… like… really bad. After the made the perfect plan she practiced again and again before she actually mustered up the courage to confess.

She wrote a whole ass 5 page long script on what to say, and a backup script for when if you rejected her. She didn’t hope that would happen, of course not, but she thought you would, always preparing for the worst case scenarios.

Assuming you said yes to her cheesy little confession, Anxiety would be thrilled! You, the glamorous, lovely, super pretty, sweet and confident emotion that you were, wanted to date little ol’ her!! She almost couldn’t believe it!

She definitely cried

It would take the poor girl a long time to settle into the relationship, but with you showering her with love, affection and kisses, not to mention words of reassurance, everyday, she would quickly feel safe and relaxed in the new relationship.

You two would give off major Jessica and Roger Rabbit vibes.

Even though you might be kind of opposites, you both fit really well together. She appreciates you and all of your affection so much, it always helps with calming her down whenever she can’t sleep, or starts stressing out too much.

Anxiety loves it when you flirt with her, but would quickly become overwhelmed if you where too seductive, leaving her brain completely fried and her hands jittery.

She also loves it when you declare your love to her, but she would become way too anxious or overstimulated if you preformed some kind of grand gesture. Instead, she would much rather prefer if you did smaller stuff, like send her love letters, surprise her with hugs and kisses, cuddle with her or enjoy a cozy stay at home date<3

Along Came A Spider

1,163 words || AU, Tender Threads timeline, Patriot is her own warning, Fluff, Sex Mentioned, Sexual Language Used, Referenced Child Abuse, Patriot/The Deep, Patriot & Ben Colyer, Homelander/Ben Colyer ||

A little gift for @sehtoast <3 - I absolutely adore their OC, Ben Colyer, and writing for Ben is super fun!

Border by Saradika

“Spiderman, Spiderman, does whatever a spider can.”

Ben peeks out from beneath the duvet as he feels weight settle beside him, his head sore and muddled. His gaze meets white fabric with silver stitching, and, for a moment, he shudders. Of all the members of the Seven, past and present, who could make him nervous, it was her.

“Hey, Benny boy!”

Patriot - Homelander’s female equivalent.

Yet, compared to her, Homelander is tame.

“Whatcha doing?”

Ben knows staying silent will not make her leave; however, he’s not in the mood to engage with anyone, especially her. Suddenly, he hears boots hitting the floor, and the duvet is wrestled away. Patriot settles beside him, her fingers interlaced behind her head while he turns away.

“So, what’s got you hiding in bed like a trapdoor?”

Trapdoor spider - clever.

“Nothing,” his voice is muffled.

“Liar,” she retorts. “The ONLY time you’re in bed during the day is with lover boy. And as he’s currently fuck knows where, there has to be a reason. So, spill it.”

He’s reluctant - she’s the most unhinged bitch he’s ever had the displeasure of meeting, but, for some God only knows the reason; she’s been strangely lovely to him. And she’s the only member of the Seven who knows about his relationship with Homelander.

“Things just aren’t great for me right now. I just want to be left alone.”

She laughs. More accurately - she cackles. “Well, that’s not happening. I’ve got nothing planned for this afternoon until Fishboy returns, and I hate being bored.”

He grimaces - he doesn’t need another reminder that she’s fucking The Deep. It’s bad enough their penthouses are right next to each other, so he has a horror of the ‘front row seat’ to hear them go at it. Her hand grips his shoulder, rocking him forcefully, not helping his state of mind.

“Tell me,” she sings.

Finally, he relents, and a sheer typhoon's worth of emotion bursts from him. His face is pressed into his pillow, muffling some of his words, but she has super hearing. Once he’s finished and the final few words fall from his lips, she’s got her arms around him, her body pressed against his back.

“Do you need me to laser their faces off?”

He knows she’s being 100% serious, so he vehemently shakes his head. She keeps hugging him, her head pressed against his.

“Do you want to watch some trashy horror movies and eat our combined body weight in ice cream? I can go to that place in Queens you like - Eddie's Sweet Shop?”

Why are you so nice to me? It’s unsettling.

It's a surreal experience.

Here Ben is, sitting on his couch and eating ice cream while watching trashy horror movies with Patriot. He’s wrapped up in blankets, nice and cosy, while she’s dressed more casually in incredibly short pyjama shorts and a skimpy tank top. There’s more skin than fabric.

No wonder The Deep likes her so much.

Although she’s cackling like a maniac at every gorey kill, it’s nice that she’s here and made an effort. There’s something rather sweet beneath the psychotic facade she wears almost daily.

Patriot is famous for being unpredictable - her mood changes almost every five minutes.

Many times, he passes someone on the 99th running for their lives while she stalks after them, her eyes glowing red, her jaw tensed, but the unsettling smile still on her lips.

“Everything okay there, Spidey?”

“Yeah,” Ben relaxes a little more. “Yeah, it is actually. Thank you for doing this.”

“No problem,” she grins. It’s rather toothy and nearly threatening, but his senses aren’t going off.

In fact, his senses haven’t gone off at all since she’s been here.

The other Seven members know nothing about Patriot; Ben muses that not even The Deep knows. But Ben and Homelander do, especially since Ben managed to do a little digging.

Patriot’s given name is Jolene Godwin, and, from the outside, it seems as if she had a normal childhood. But beneath the facade, it’s a familiar story: a little girl called Jane, locked away in a lab, experimented on only to be abandoned in favour of Homelander.

“I’m his replacement. He knew I existed, and he did nothing to save me. That’s why I hate him.”

“I have to go and use the little spider’s room,” she announces, getting up and walking away. “If I miss a kill, tell me how grizzly it was.”

Some time passes, and Patriot is still in the bathroom. Ben ponders whether to get up and check on her, partly out of concern for her but mostly out of concern for his bathroom. He doesn’t want her snooping through the drawers; he’s worried about what she might find.

His attention, however, is suddenly moved to his penthouse door opening and The Deep walking in. Spotting Ben on the couch, The Deep makes a beeline for him, clearly pissed off.

“Hey, Bro,” he tries to sound menacing. “Seems you’ve been having a cosy afternoon.”

“Yes, I have,” Ben replies, not even slightly intimated. “Something wrong?”

“Drop the act, bro,” The Deep folds his arms, glaring at Ben. “I know she’s here. You need to-“

“Is that an attitude I hear?”

The Deep’s face turns bright red like he’s been caught red-handed, while Ben averts his gaze. Patriot leans against the doorway with those doe eyes and a pout on her lips, her outfit somehow more skimpy than when she left for the bathroom.

“Why are you giving Ben a hard time? We’ve just been watching trashy horror films and eating ice cream,” she says sultrily, talking slow, decisive steps, sauntering towards The Deep. “Don’t tell me you’re jealous?”

It’s like watching a car crash. Ben should look away, but his curiosity makes it difficult. She’s manipulative; that much is clear. However, she does it so artistically that Ben is amazed: puffing up her chest, running her perfectly manicured nails along his jaw, down his neck, and chest to fiddle with the V clasp.

“Wait, do you think that I’ve been in here? With Ben?” She cackles. “Of course not; I’ve only got eyes for my Lord of the Eight Seas. Now, why don’t you….”

Judging by The Deep’s facial expression, Ben is suddenly very pleased he doesn’t have super hearing. He can only wonder what it must be like for Homelander. It only takes a few minutes, and The Deep nearly trips over himself as he runs out of the penthouse. Patriot looks back over at Ben.

“Thank you for letting me spend time with you,” she smiles genuinely. “It was nice; we should do it again.”

“Yeah, we should,” Ben replies honestly before asking his next question. “You said he was Lord of the Eight Seas; I thought there were seven.”

“There are seven seas,” her smile turns into a grin. “The eighth one is my pussy.”

And just like that, Ben was traumatised for the rest of the day.

[cryptids-and-muses]

I watched return of the jedi for the first time in 4 years and here are my thoughts:

I know the line between sci-fi and fantasy is already super blurry but Star Wars truly feels like a fantasy movie. It’s in the costumes, the worldbuilding, the vibe, the odd encounters, palpatine’s entire character. And while there is futuristic tech the world of Star Wars doesn’t feel particularly Futuristic™️, if that makes sense.

There’s this one imperial officer Bacar interacts with at the start of the movie who acts his ASS off. Seriously give this man an Oscar. The fear!! The subtly!! The little gulp he does before facing Vadar!!! The palpable terror at the idea of the emperor coming there!!! This dude single handedly sets up palpatine as a threat

PRACTICAL SETS!!! All the practical sets!!! There’s so many sequences, especially in jabba’s palace but they’re throughout, where the characters casually interact with the world around them, and it’s such a small detail but it means so much to me. They really feel like they’re part of the world. My favorites were the Hall of Horrors C-3PO walks through in Jabba’s palace and Luke interacting with his x-wing on dagoba

It’s not all this great though, the green screen to the sarlack pit was awful. I found it endearing.

Also I love how there’s so much this movie doesn’t explain to you. There’s this weird robot spider thing in Jabba’s palace that we see when R2 and C-3PO walk in!!! What does it do!!! There’s a guy who’s super upset when Luke kills that monster!!! Who is he!!! And a bunch of other weird little things that just aren’t elaborated on. On top of that there’s just all these strange aliens just chilling, living their lives, some of which I don’t think we see again. It all comes together to make the world feel so much bigger than what we see.

I’d heard the analysis that Luke wears black in return of the Jedi to allude to a possible fall to the dark side, but that analysis hadn’t really clicked for me until this watch through. Like dude’s introduction was him force choking someone

Honestly like has this kind of subdued confidence this whole movie and I love it. He knows he’s good but doesn’t need to flaunt it.

Like his grin when he says “you should have bargained jabba. It’s the last mistake you’ll ever make” I love it

Luke is actually really subdued this entire movie, which tracks with all the internal conflict he’s dealing with. The biggest displays of emotion we see from him are when he’s reuniting with friends or when he goes OFF on Vadar at the end for threatening leia

Chewbacca and Han’s reunion 😭, they care so much about each other, chewy pets his head

In general everyone is so happy to see each other in this movie, every time someone shows up after being separated everyone is so excited to see them. There’s so many hugs. You can really tell they care about each other.

Due to some of the framing, I don’t think leia slaughtering Jabba was part of the plan. I think she just saw an opportunity and took it. Girlboss.

I noticed Luke’s fighting style with his lightsaber is much tougher around the edges, it’s less elegant, which tracks with him having much less official training with it. I like it

Yoda trying to use dying as a way to avoid Luke’s questions. Iconic.

Yoda’s choked out dying words of “there is another skywalker” become so much funnier when you remember he becomes a force ghost. The man could just peacefully pass then come back 10 minutes later and continue the conversation, he doesn’t need to try this hard to get the words out. Then again that would take some of the drama out of it.

Han is just so great in this movie, he’s got a reputation for being this suave sarcastic outlaw, which to be fair he kind of was in new hope, but here he’s just so sweet. He’s the one telling Luke to be more optimistic! When lando gets his promotion to general he doesn’t tell him about his own, and looks genuinely bashful when it’s brought up in front of the group! He goes to check on leia after she talks with Luke! He gives lando the falcon because he knows it’ll help him even though the ship means so much to him and is scared of it getting destroyed! When he thinks leia has feelings for Luke he offers to step aside and not get in the way! This man cares about his friends!

Speaking of that moment with leia after Luke leaves, that’s the one moment we see him being a dick, he lashes out with “but you could tell Luke? Is that who you could tell?!” But then immediately apologizes and comforts her when she asks for it. He loves leia so much and it’s so obvious the entire time

My man thought he was in this love triangle and was doing his best, and was fully prepared to step aside and let leia be happy with Luke. And the face journey he goes on when leia tells him luke is her brother. It’s gold. It’s that math meme but even better.

For the mission to endor, Luke and leia are both in these camo space ponchos and helmets but apparently Han’s outfit was to iconic to change because he just puts on a camo trench coat over his usual outfit

The first speeder chase through the woods of endor struck me as much more low key then it would have been if it was made today. This isn’t a bad thing, but I know if it was made today it would have been much more dramatic, a set piece

When leia goes missing Han, Luke, and chewy immediately peel off from the group to go find her. Good friends but you are LEADING THE MISSION

Leia meeting the ewok is a fun sequence and it’s funny how she just rolls with it. She does not question it, just accepts this little guy is here now and starts following him. It’s funny to contrast this with when Luke, Han, and chewy rescued her in a new hope and she fought every step of the way

In general the Ewoks are such a strange and whimsical inclusion. Like this is part 3 in a space opera and a huge chunk of it has these little furry dudes who live and fight like the lost boys from Peter Pan that we’ve literally never seen before. It’s weird

Luke is so delighted by the Ewoks, from his little smile when the first surround them to trying to hide his laughter at them thinking C-3PO is a god

Also we should not ignore how hilarious his idea to scare the Ewoks into listening was. And the man knew it too, you could tell from his smile. The little shit.

The storytelling sequence!!! I love it!! I love how C-3PO uses the sound effects! I love how everyone is huddled together! I love how we the audience can tell what’s being said from context clues even if we don’t understand all the words!!

Luke peacing out like “it’s time to angst😔”

I do think the bridge scene between luke and leia could have been done a bit better but it wasn’t bad, just a bit flat for the gravity of what was being revealed. Leia and Han are great though

I love luke and vadar’s back and forths even if they can get repetitive

The writers really used “search your feelings” or “your feelings betray you” as shortcuts to avoid hard writing huh

The emperor was such a little gremlin, he did nothing but talk about how luke was going to fall to him, how he knew everything was gonna happen and it’s all according to his plan, he really didn’t do anything but talk shit until the very end with the force lightning

To be fair, Vadar didn’t do anything until the force lightning either

Neither of these points are complaints, palpatine is supposed to be a shadowy scheming villain that others do the dirty work for and the really pull it off. And vadar’s passivity in this movie I think demonstrates the conflict he’s feeling. Despite his words about how he must do his emperor’s will, he’s not really doing that right now, is he? He’s not really defying orders either but something is different

Something I noticed!!! When Han’s team first make it in to the back door, off in the corner as they go inside we see a storm trooper adjusting his armor and taking his position again. One of the rebels stole the storm troopers armor and took their place. This doesn’t lead up to anything but it’s SUCH a cool detail

The true hero’s of this movie are the Ewoks, palpatine had Han’s team captured and the air fleet on the ropes before the Ewoks stepped in and saved Han and co. Palpatine would probably have won if it weren’t for them. It’s great.

I really love luke so much, he’s just so compassionate. For his friends, for his father, for everyone. This is the trait that makes him a hero. It’s literally what palpatine tried to use to turn him, the anger he’d feel at watching his friends die because he loves them so much

“No, you’re wrong. I am a Jedi, like my father before me” not gonna lie, this was kinda hot. It’s that quiet confidence I was talking about earlier. Also the way he nods towards vadar when he mentions his father

“….so be it, Jedi” THIS!!!! THIS!!!! I love this so much!! Because the entire movie palpatine has been talking about how Luke is going to fall to him, how it’s inevitable, how Luke is foolish to think otherwise. But this moment right here, is him acknowledging he’s wrong. He won’t be able to turn Luke, he failed. Luke truly is a Jedi and even palpatine cannot away him. It’s so fucking good

When vadar lifts up palpatine to stop him, we get a reaction shot for Luke who just looks so confused. Appropriate reaction.

As luke is dragging vadar to his ship we see imperial officers and storm troopers running around to try and escape and I just want to know what the fuck was going through their heads when they saw Luke and vadar

I know the falcon surviving doesn’t make sense but it makes me happy

Something important I realized towards the end: AT NO POINT IN THIS MOVIE DID ANYONE TELL HAN VADAR WAS LUKE’S DAD

CHEWY AND LANDO WEREN’T TOLD EITHER FOR THAT MATTER

THEY DON’T KNOW

Presumably they were told later but holy fuck why is no one talking about this.

Again….those reunions, hugs all around, everyone is so happy and relieved and I love it

I know it doesn’t end here, which makes be kinda sad, because this is such a beautiful and hopeful ending

All in all, with all the Star Wars fatigue and what Disney has been doing, this really reminded me what I love about Star Wars. I felt like I could appreciate the movie a lot more on this watch through and had a wonderful time

[milawritesstuff]

Can you do a pedri imagine of them celebrating the supercopa/ el Clasico win? Make it like super fluffy & cute like he dedicates his goal to her. And then like celebrating in their hotel room *wink wink*

•••

Warnings : smut ⚠️

•••

The final whistle blew, the game was over. Barça had won the Supercopa against Real Madrid. You cheered in the stands and hugged Fernando, Pedri’s brother.

Pedri’s mom hugged you as well and she began to cry. -Mi niño.- she said. You got super emotional hearing how her voice broke as she said those words. This had been a beautiful match for Pedri and he had scored.

Minutes later you were all walking down onto the field to celebrate with the team. Fernando nudged you and you turned to where he was pointing, there you saw as Pedri ran towards your group. He hugged his mom first, she began to cry. Fernando then went in for a hug and Pedri looked over to have his dad join in on the hug. You stood aside looking at them with a big smile. You knew how much Pedri loved his family and you could wait your turn. You loved seeing the bond he had with them. Eventually after they all let go of Pedri he turned over and smiled at you.

-You don’t think I was going to forget you, right?- you smiled and hugged him.

-I’m so proud of you.- you gave him a quick kiss.

-That goal was for you. I love you.-

-I love you, mi mago.-

You felt butterflies in your stomach. He lifted you up and began to twirl you around. You laughed as the cameras caught the moment. Pedri was so happy and you were tremendously proud of him.

You spent the next few hours celebrating, taking pictures, and waiting for Pedri to finish his interviews. Finally it was time to go back to the hotel. You rode the bus back with Pedri. He was so tired he feel asleep with his head resting on your left shoulder.

-We’re here.- you said nudging him to try and wake him up. He opened his beautiful brown eyes and smiled at you. -I needed that little nap to recharge.- you rolled your eyes. -It’s not time to recharge, it’s time to go to sleep, Pedrito.- he smirked at you.

The two of you stood at the hotel lobby. You gave him a hug and a kiss. -I’m so proud of you.- he smiled as you leaned forward and began to kiss him. -Buena noches.- you said.

He grabbed you by your waist. -Where do you think you’re going?-

-Pedri, to my room. To sleep.-

-No, you’re coming to my room.- he said as he began to carry you towards the wing his room was in.

-Pedri put me down, Xavi will kill us.-

-He doesn’t care. We already won. It’s time to celebrate.-

-Well at least let me go get some clothes so I can change out of this.- you motioned towards the white jeans and Barça jersey. Pedri didn’t put you down. -There’s no need for that, you don’t need clothes for our celebration.-

You rolled your eyes and giggled as he continued to carry you to his room. Once inside he laid you down on his bed. He began to take his clothes off and you did the same. You went under the covers.

He got on the bed and cuddled you. You looked up at his beautiful eyes. -You did amazing today. You deserve this and so much more.- you bit your bottom lip. He smiled. -Every time I score I look for you on the stands, I never want a match where you aren’t there. I wouldn’t be able to function.-

You pushed yourself towards him and kissed him. A sweet and delicate kiss while his hands were one on your head and the other around your waist.

-But now I thing it’s time you give me my gift to celebrate La Supercopa.- he said with a smirk.

-And what does my campeon want?- you say as you begin to move lower on his body under the bedsheets. You pull his boxers down and lick your lips as you see Pedri is ready. You place your hand around him and begins to tug. You can hear Pedri release a low moan and his hand searching for your head above the sheets.

-You can start there.- he says and you both laugh. You lick his tip little by little. You can hear him moaning. He pulls the bedsheets off of you and you look up to find him sitting up on his elbows as he looks at you. You continue to suck and eventually take all of him in. He stares at you. You go in further and can feel his tip hitting your throat and Pedri falls back onto the bed. He throws his head back and furrows his eyebrows.

You love seeing Pedri so out of control. Knowing he’s yours and you are the only one who can make him feel all of this.

He moans out your name. -Come here.- he says. You give him one last lick and move yourself up on the bed. When you get next to him he pulls you over him, and you sit on his lap facing him.

-How was that?- you ask. You look down at his lips and lean in for a kiss. As you are kissing him Pedri unclasps your bra and slowly takes it off of you. He bites his lip.

-You know you’re the best.- he whispers.

-Well who else have you been trying out?- you ask as you pout your lips. He laughs.

-Nobody else.- he begins to nibble on your neck and makes his way to your breasts. He takes one of them into his mouth and begins to suck. You moan as you feel his soft lips around your nipple.

-You know you’re the only one.- he whispers as he takes your other breast into his mouth.

He begins to tuck at your underwear and you stand up to take it off. You sit back on his lap and he places his hands around your ass. He lifts you up a bit and then pushes you down as he fills you up. You let out a moan as you feel all of him inside of you and Pedri lets out a small smile hearing you.

You place your arms around his neck and begin to move yourself above him. His arms on your ass as he helps push you against him. Your lips look for his and you take him in a slow and gentle kiss. Before the kiss ends you feel him buck his hips up and you moan into his mouth.

-God, I love this Y/N but I need to release all of this excitement.- he says. You smile.

-What did you have in mind?-

He asks you to get off of him and get on all fours on the bed. You lean your chest towards the bed leaving your ass up right at the height he needs it. His hands around your waist and before you know it you can feel him enter you. He lets out a loud moan.

You moan out his name and close your eyes as you feel Pedri thrust into you. You grab onto the bedsheets as you feel his hands around your waist. You can feel yourself clinching around him and hear him yelling out profanities. You can feel him going faster and you don’t know if you can hold it much longer. You press your face against the bed to hide your moans.

The sound of Pedri’s moans, the sound of his body hitting yours as he thrusts in and out. It all sends you into a trance.

It feels so good that you begin to move along with him and he begins to hit you deeper and deeper. -Pedri.- you moan.

You feel him getting sloppier and you know he’s about to hit your high. You feel as your legs begin to shake and the pressure builds up in your stomach only to let go and it goes all throughout your body. You moan out his name as he does the same.

-Joder.- he yells out as he rests his chest on your back. He takes himself out of you and you plop face down on the bed. He lays next to you and begins to move his hand around your back.

-Thank you.- he says. You turn to look at him and smile. -Anything for my campeon.- he smiles and places a kiss on your forehead.

-Te quiero.-

Comfort // Deyna Castellanos

a/n: based off this request. I hope you like it!

"Hey…" Deyna whispered, you let your bags drop on the floor, eyes red and puffy. You looked at her and then you broke down. All the tears that you didn‘t spill at the airport were now streaming down your face twice as hard. "Baby…" she wrapped her arms around your small body, you were sobbing in her neck, shaking. It hurt her to see you like that. "I- I should‘ve done more"

Deyna guided you to the couch, your head resting in her lap while her hand played with your hair as she tried to calm you down. No words were exchanged. You couldn‘t talk anymore, you did it too much already. Deyna was just there, the comfort you needed. She was the only one who was allowed to see you so vulnerable. You cried until you fell asleep.

Deynas sitting position wasn‘t comfortable but she would never have dared to get up and wake you, not when you looked so hurt.

While you were sleeping, she thought of something that might or at least cheer you up a little.

"Deyna" you rasped out, her eyes finding yours "I love you"

"I love you too," she gave your forehead a kiss before you slowly sat up, still on her lap. "Kiss?" you smiled, shyly. The striker grinned, giving you a kiss. A kiss that held so many emotions.

"Take a shower, we‘re going out" Deyna told you, pressing multiple kisses over your face "where are we going?"

"For me to know, for you to find out"

Quickly, you took a shower and dressed yourself before you made your way back to the living room where your girl was. "you look nice" the striker commented on your (casual) outfit, smiling fondly at you. "Are you ready, my love?"

"Yeah, let’s go" you grabbed her hand, pulling her outside, stopping at the street "Um, where do we have to go?"

"Follow me" she pressed a kiss to your cheek, walking down the street.

The two of you talked about everything and nothing but the World Cup, not wanting the mood to change. The walk wasn‘t long, Deynas plan was to take you out to your favorite restaurant.

"Tada" your girlfriend stated with open arms to point at the restaurant. "My favorite restaurant?"

"Well, yes?" she looked at you confused, your face unreadable, "we can go somewhere else if you want to?"

"No, no! It‘s amazing, you‘re amazing"

You went inside, taking a seat at your usual table. You could see everything from the table, you could look outside or to the kitchen and could see every person in the restaurant. "Hi, how are you both? Long time no see!" Josh, the waiter said.

It's funny, whenever you guys had been here, Josh had always been your waiter. He was a super nice guy, attentive and friendly with a sense of humor. You enjoyed his company, he was not only your waiter but also became a friend and thought Manchester is blue (something you loved to hear) One day, you had invited him to the Derby and afterwards he cried about how great it was, he was such a sweet soul. "Joshy boy! How are you? How‘s the little sister?"

"I‘m great, thank you. She‘s still crushing on you" he laughed, Deyna watched the scene in front of her, a big smile on her face. "I told you, you should take her with you to a game" you smacked his arm, giggling along. His sister was sweet 6 year old girl, obsessed with football and a die-hard ManCity fan, a die-hard Y/N/L fan. "One day…maybe. So your usual?" he looked at you and your girlfriend who nodded, then walked away.

Your date went on smooth, Deyna a charmer as always, some chats with Josh and a delicious meal. For a moment, you could forget your sadness about the World Cup final loss, you could be yourself and happy.

"Thank you, Josh, it was amazing as always." your girl stated as he cleared the table.

"Baby, can we get Ice cream?" you asked with puppy dog eyes.

"Of course, my love" Deyna paid for your meals before the two of you said bye to Josh, giving him hug.

As you got your ice cream (Deyna paid again with the statement: it’s my treat) you walked home, holding hands. You felt at peace, the sun had already set, stars clear in the sky.

"Thank you for doing this" you knew the striker did all this to ease your mind "I love you" your arms went around her neck, pulling her down. You kissed her like you would lose her.

The final will hurt for a while but you were nothing but proud of your team and with Deyna by your side at every step of the way, you‘ll come back stronger.

The lionesses would come back stronger than ever, ready to take revenge.

concert dump (late bc I slept for two days and had to go back to the real world today):

I dragged my best friend along because I knew I would be a mess otherwise. (I convinced her with Eden’s beauty and the fact Aubrey is Chappell Roan’s bassist tho)

We met so many cool people there!! Shoutout if we met you (I was in a sparkly silver cowboy hat)

Two of the girls we met were also in school and one of them kept making Eden laugh with her jokes in between songs. She would say “that was actually kind of good!” or re-enact Mario’s “waaaah” amongst other things that really tickled Eden apparently. They ended getting Dash(?)’s set list. (rip we never got their names tho)

We were right up against the stage which was bonkers. (the stage is only a foot maybe off the ground btw) we were right in front of Eden so our view of Lewis was terrible 💔 I eventually switched with my best friend because apparently Lewis kept scaring her with how intense he looked while drumming LMAO

I made eye contact with Lewis a couple times whenever he wasn’t looking at Eden, Freddy, or his drums since I was right in front of him.

The dynamic between the five of them is adorable!! they clearly love each other so much and they would constantly look between each other for confirmation/support. I love how they got into each song with someone (usually Freddy) counting down.

Eden said we were the best crowd!! We sang a bit of one of the songs (I can’t remember which one) with her and she got a little emotional during one of them. All around the best vibes I’ve ever seen at a concert.

Once they left the stage I went to the bathroom and when I came back I literally passed right by Lewis without even realizing it until I turned around 💔

We ended up meeting The Wonderfool (the opener) and they were super cool!! (sorry to Matt, he kept talking to me but I was so nervous I probably seemed so uninterested 😭)

We had to swap lines a couple times because I don’t think Lewis realized how many people were actually waiting for him so he kept going to pack up but eventually we met Aubrey who is super cool!! We then met Freddy and Dash a couple times every time we bought merch (we went each separately before the show then twice after it ended).

AND EDEN!! Eden is literally my queen, she is so so sweet. We asked her how the tour was going and she mentioned again how Atlanta has been the best so far. I jokingly said she was just saying that but she insisted and was very charming. We took a couple selfies and then Dash offered to take a picture (he accidentally took a selfie first before turning the camera around 😭)

Oh! everyone complimented my cowboy hat which made me very happy.

I was literally about to give up seeing Lewis but my best friend would literally not let me leave until we saw him (very grateful for that lol) We asked Aubrey if she could grab him for a second. I felt so so bad because he kept trying to pack up and I think he was just tired or nervous with the show and everyone meeting him. I didn’t want to overwhelm him more so I just asked for his autograph and a picture. (He thought I meant a drawing which was funny so I asked if he drew and he said he drew all the album artwork and I felt so silly.) He was still very sweet and kind!! Pro tip: don’t wait until the very very end to meet him, I was stupid 😭

We left once we got the picture and when I looked at it I was initially confused because he originally went to side hug me but then let go of me and rested his fist on my shoulder… I panicked and thought I had done something wrong. But I realized that he adjusted because I did an awkward side hug too where I wasn’t hugging him all the way. so he was actually just being very respectful which makes me admire him so much more 😭

but yeah! anyways, here are some stuff from the concert, a picture of my best friend’s wallet they all signed (and laughed at), dash’s accidental selfie and a picture with me and eden/lewis!!

huening kai x reader

note: super fluffy || i literally just thought of this rn and i thought it was like the cutest scenario ever. [if you’re having a bad day or week or whatever it might be just know that you’re doing great regardless of the outcomes & that i’m here cheering you on!! hope you enjoy this fic and lmk wut u think ^_^]

god was it the worst day like ever... to start, your alarm didn’t go off so not only did you have like no time to get ready for the day but you didn’t get to have any breakfast either. you felt awful, you could still feel the weight of the whole week on your shoulders. usually your weekends were relaxing and restful but your boss had sent back the reports that you turned in and basically told you that she wanted you to redo them all. so now your precious sunday would be spent in your office, all alone. your whole week had been so busy that you didn’t get to do any house work or spend any time with your boyfriend, huening kai. you had told him about everything going on and how you just felt terrible. he had comforted you then and he planned to spend the whole day with you today. but that’s when your boss asked you to fix your reports, and just like that you had ruined his plans too… by the time you finished and got back home it was around 6 pm, your whole day spent at work, how nice. there was still so much that you needed to get done at home so it’s not like you’d even get to relax either.

you took a deep breath before putting in the key to unlock your house, calming yourself down before entering. you knew that anything would set you off right now and the absolute last thing you would want is to take it all out on huening kai. you finally went in and he called out to you, “y/n?” he said from the living room. “mhm,” you hummed, holding it all together. but still you could feel the sting in your eyes and the ache in your head. he approached you and placed the softest kiss to your lips, for a second you felt peace then it all rushed back. “come on, let’s watch a movie,” he said, taking hold of your hand so gently that you were almost convinced. “no baby, i have a lot of stuff to do right now,” you said, feeling bad that you had to reject his offer. “don’t worry about none of that i took care of it,” he said, a sweet smile on his face. “but there was so much to do… how could you possibly-,” you started, shaking your head and pinching the bridge of your nose. he took the hand from your face and held both of your hands to his lips and kissed them. “i washed our clothes, folded it, and put it up just where you like it.” kiss. “i washed all the dishes and wiped the counters.” kiss. “i made the bed and cleaned up your desk.” kiss. “i found your grocery list on the fridge and i went to buy everything we needed.” kiss. “i cleaned our bathroom and organized everything how you like it too.” kiss. “and i ordered your favorite for dinner, which should be getting here soo-,” he stumbled when you suddenly wrapped your arms around his waist and buried your face into his chest. he laughed at your initial response but it was cut short when he felt you trembling against him. he took his hands and put them on either side of your face to get a good look at you. “what’s wrong? why’re you crying?” he asked, a concerned pout on his face. “how could i ever deserve you,” you cried, “all i’ve done this whole week is ruin things.” he wiped at your tears with his thumbs and placed a kiss on your forehead. “you didn’t ruin a thing. you were having a bad week, that’s all. you did all you could and that was amazing as is,” he said, hugging you again tightly. you looked up at him for a second before leaning in to his lips, kissing him with every emotion he had made you feel. he kissed you back immediately, and you ran your fingers through his hair before he pulled away slightly. “y/n i love you more than anything… please tell me you’re feeling better,” he said, a hopeful glint in his caring eyes. “yes, i’m feeling so much better now,” you say, the both of you then laying down comfortably on the couch. “kai, thank you for everything, it really really means a lot that you’d do all this,” you said, as you laid against him, chest to chest. “of course, angel, you do so much for me that it’s the least i can do,” he said, rubbing your back. and finally you got to spend the rest of your weekend the way you wanted to, tangled up with the person who loves you the most.

( its 5am and im fucking skdjdjs gonna cry. you really know how to make me emotional huh? I really needed this though thanks. since as of late I've been hating my writing a lot. But man, you're honestly my favorite to see on the dash too. All those feelings are mutual. I LOVE seeing your reactions to my replies or asks, i always look forward to seeing that hahaha. And i definitely always wanna show my support to you too. I like seeing the stuff you rb related to Namida's character, helps me get a better understanding of her y'know? I adore her so much. I want to kiss her on the forehead and hug her tightly and tell her how amazing she is.

You're also super fun to write with, MAN. I still go through old threads and reread. That's how much every interaction was soooo great for me. But you're literally so sweet... So so kind. You're one of the few people I'm confident is interested in my writing & muses. Never had any doubts about that literally. I know I'd literally die for yours. Hmu if you ever write a book I'd buy that shit quick. Every reply, every ask, it's like a dessert. You've truly given me the best rp experience ever. And i wanna do my best to give you a good experience as well because im as invested in your content as you are in mine. You're awesome, amazing, so, so talented and creative. You're also such a great friend, thanks especially for sending me messages currently since it's just been rough haha. Just... Thanks for everything. I've had tough moments on this blog but having you as a mutual is why it still remains :))

But AAAA the ones i havent posted are unfinished, since i keep getting stuck or lose confidence in what I'm writing. I know i started the one i mentioned where the siblings talk about namida recently I'll try focusing on that next. You remain the only reason i still consider posting drabbles ajdjdjsksjd thanks i know i always look forward to your comments on them. But DUDE I'd love to read any other drabbles you'll write.

Also if i forgot any others you posted please lmk 😩 but also just for u I'll make sure to try finishing more drabbles.

@kidovna bhavna. ok. words cannot describe how much i adore you. you are literally one of the most talented people i have ever met in my life, so much so that i gush to my irl friends and family about your artwork and how cool i think you are. but more than that, you are truly just one of the most encouraging and most humble and one of the kindest people in our little byler fandom! i love how i constantly see you cheering others on and how i see you working with others and putting things together that make the community so excited (spider-will my beloved, thank you and every person who made this possible). your art never fails to make me smile and feel things, and i am sooooo lucky and grateful i get to call you my dear friend!

@elekinetic this is my official petition to put ella elekinetic in charge of stranger things 5. because hello. screenwriting. holy shit? holy shit. holyyyyy shit. ella, you are truly one of the most talented people i know, and usually, i read incredibly quickly because that's my default, but when i read your scripts i always take them so slow. i am like holding my breath in anticipation, feeling every single emotion, and i swear to you it's like i'm watching the show. and then on top of that you're just? one of the nicest people ever? literally i'm obsessed with you. thanks for coming to my tedtalk on why ella is the best.

@strangeswift abby abby abby abby!!!!! my stranger things x taylor swift partner in crime, you are THE BEST. god one of the highlights of the last few weeks of this year has been getting to know you because you're just such a joy to be around and to talk to. you have THE BEST takes on byler and on taylor swift, and i love how unabashedly nerdy i can be about this with you. also, i constantly see you on the tag just encouraging other people within this community, and look, i think that's really just such a special thing and is a testament to what an amazing person you are.

@toystoryfan TOY OH MY GOD. petition to make toy The Byler of the year please? because there is nobody i see lifting people up, making people smile, and brightening others' days like toy does. you are one of the most thoughtful and kind people i know. there is just a warmth and positivity to you that is SO wonderful, and it never fails to make me smile. i am hereby naming you sunshine incarnate and naming myself sunshine protector bc if anyone ever is mean to you, i'll end them.

@eightieslesbian MADDYYYYYYY. okay maddy, literally like i said with abby, one of the highlights of the last couple weeks of this year has been getting to chat with you and getting to know you!!! you are literally one of the sweetest people ever and also HELLO GIFSETS? THE GIFSET MAKER? OKAY. YEAH. THE COOLEST. plus our love for merlin has been resurrected (unlike arthur pendragon oof), and i love that for us. you always brighten my day whenever i see you around the tag, and i'm SO GLAD WE'RE FRIENDS <3

@smoosnoom MOON!!!!! a byler god among humans. the quality of fics that you put out is just absolutely outstanding? like i swear you don't miss, and i so appreciate how much thought and love and intention you put into your writing!!! literally top tier writing. and on top of that, you're incredibly sweet and so positive, so big win for the byler community that we have moon in it!!

@rotisserie5107 RORI!!!!!! rori oh my god, it's you and toy i swear. first off, you never fail to make me giggle when i see your tags or your comments because i swear you have the funniest commentary. rori comments are some of my favorite comments. i love how easygoing and friendly and funny you are and how easily you just vibe with everyone here? you're also SUCH an incredibly supportive and kind person, which makes this fandom an even better place. i return to work this week and i will be listening to ethel cain soon, so i will return to you with thoughts and feelings. 🫡

@wibble-wobbegong WIBBLE. ok i'm glad this ask came around bc i have been meaning to just stumble over into your asks and say this, but i'll do it here. wibble, first off, you're SO incredibly smart and do SUCH a wonderful job at analyzing the show and all its nuances. like bless you and your ministry. but second off, more than that (and not that the show and the fandom isn't important, but look there's also more to life than stranger things lmao), i can say without a doubt that you are truly one of the kindest people in the byler community. you always come across as so humble and so welcoming and so kind, which i think is often lacking (because it is the internet lmao), so it's always such a breath of fresh air to see you on my dash! also legit one of the funniest people ever ok?!!

god okay. that was so many people, and i could go on and on and on (and i have half a mind to just reblog this and add more people to it) because there are so so so so many people not on this list that i could gush about... but i'm hungry and probably need to go eat something since i skipped dinner last night. so that's it, thanks for making my 2022 brighter!!!

[in-my-feels-probably]

super congratulations for hitting 1.7k followers!! it's super deserved and i wish you many more in the future!!🫶🏻

i would love to request option two from the game, possibly with the slytherin boys :) (but not Theo or Draco if that's okay🫂)

i'm Noe, she/her, and i'm a hufflepuff, Enfp and Gemini :). i would describe myself as a summer girl, i love having fun and making people happy, making people smile is something i love. i try to always be kind and get along with people, and i truly hope that i come across as someone you can rely on. my love language is definitely physical touch, followed by quality time, hugs are truly my fuel. i love animals, especially the sea ones, im studying hard to become a marine biologist :) the beach and the sea are definitely my safe place. im also very open minded, and i find it kind of hard to understand people with very narrow mentalities. i would say that i struggle with anxiety, switching between "it is what it is" and "omg i'm doomed" quite often HAHA, but in the end i think i will always be a dreamer/optimist. emotional vulnerability is something that i love and that scares me at the same time hah. my favorite artist is Hozier, but my music taste ranges from ABBA to pop punk/punk rock. i really like poetry e writing it, and i'm also kind of spiritual (tarot and similar :) ), and a thing i would love to learn is how to surf. i kind of struggle/d with setting boundaries, but im working on not being a people pleaser so there's that :) i also do historical sword fighting, im very chaotic and i love partying :)

and i think that's all? i'll reread the rules and add anything in case missed it, and i wish you a wonderful day!!!! congratulations again!!!🫶🏻‼️

hi!

thanks so much for participating :)

i ship you with enzo!

i think enzo would find you really sweet and endearing. he’s definitely a people person, and also a people pleaser. you valuing helping people and wanting to make them happy and smile is something he’d really appreciate. it takes a special kind of person to actively try and make someone else’s day better, even at their own expense, and enzo would think you’re really brave and compassionate for wanting to do that. but he’d also worry about you being a people pleaser. being one, he’d know how draining it can be on a person to always be the one looking out for other people. so he’d always make sure to look out for you in that aspect.

enzo would 100% support any hobbies, passions, and career paths you wanted to explore. when you got a little down about your future or worried about things you couldn’t control, he’d be quick to ease your fears and make you feel a lot better. and with your own understanding of your anxiety and mental health, he’d know that you’d be very empathetic and helpful about his. i think enzo definitely needs some reassurance every once in a while, and it would be easy for your to give him that.

you’re into a wide range of things. you don’t limit yourself, and you’re open to any sort of hobby or passion that you may like. i think that kind of vulnerability and openness would really inspire enzo to try it in his own life. he’d love that you had eclectic taste. you have things that are softer and more feminine and domestic, but you also have things that are badass and cool, and both would really excite him.

you already know this man is taking you to the aquarium on a date. he’d love planning all those cute little dates that make single people sick but secretly jealous, and he’d have no shame doting on you and doing things with you that make you happy. he’d take you to see all the marine life there, wanting nothing more than to watch your eyes light up when you stepped in the door.

“and what’s this one?” he’d ask for the millionth time, a small smile on his face as he listened to you explain whatever sea life you were looking at.

“what kind of dolphin is that?”

you’d smile, watching it swim through the water as you peered through the glass. “a bottlenose.”

“tell me about the sharks. is there a whale shark here? i’ve always wanted to see one.”

“this way!” you’d say excitedly, tugging him by hand to the next tank.

there’s be a giant plaque in each exhibit explaining in heavy detail what kind of sea life was there, but he wouldn’t even bother glancing at it. even if he knew what he was looking at. he’d still want to hear about it from you and only you.

and after hours in the aquarium, he’s definitely stopping by in the gift shop and picking you out something. either a little necklace with a sea turtle pendant, or a plushie of a dolphin or shark. anything you wanted, he’d get it for you. he might even get a matching one, just so you both had something to remember the day by.

Ok because I’m still emotionally distraught from watching their hometown WOF speeches back to back the other day I’m just gonna say something..

Not that I or anyone who wasn’t there (or wasn’t them) would know but I have a feeling, since Scott’s ceremony was first that day, he maybe asked Tessa to stand up there with him after the plaque reveal while he gave his speech, since he says (off script) that it’s horrible they have to do this apart from each other. So at least having her up there with him he could feel that reassurance there and of course she wouldn’t have questioned it. Not that they couldn’t reassure each other from the crowd- but they wanted to be next to each other when they did it.

So I guess later that day for her ceremony, without even discussing it he would stand with her. You know because their ceremonies were separate.. because they come from (close but) different communities, but its each of their own ceremonies, while both their names are on each plaque. But just given it’s them I think whoever went first would’ve asked the other to stand there. It’s a small thing but that’s so sweet that they don’t feel comfortable being alone when being at least somewhat individually honoured.

Then I just need to say how.. gut punching it is, when Scott looks to her and says ‘can you believe that was our career and we got to share that together’ and she looks away and is dangerously close to crying…

like Tessa is the queen of eye contact and composure.. she’s quiet in her expressions so with even the smallest thing.. that brief look away because she can’t look at him without getting emotional about everything they shared.. like… that says so much and this isn’t shocking but once you kinda know them in the sense of how they are and express themselves that is so telling from her.

Then of course she actually does go on to wipe tears away and once he’s done she just can’t wait to hug him and when they do hug and he squeezed his eyes shut and also it’s one of his Tessa hugs- like if you’re as unabashedly obsessed as me and you’ve watched enough hugs you know that he has.. kinda a few different hugs but a very special one or two Tessa hugs just for her.. and it’s one of those where he pulls her super close and so gently to fit their bodies together even briefly coz they have grown up essentially attached to each other it’s as if they have grown into and around each other so they fit perfectly…. ughhhhh it’s just so emotional when you know and understand just how much they love each other.. they aren’t use to having to get up in public and talk about how wonderful the other is- they showed that and would’ve told each other that to their face every single day.. but then reflecting on it and not being able to just straight away hug each other and express however/ exactly how they wanted to they had to stay composed and internalise it.. not to mention this time in their lives with so many changes and a scary but exciting future.. I think during T’s ceremony how she says ‘we can do this on our own time.. coz it would take so long… but like I think she probably really couldn’t do it because if she got that wobbly over her family imagine with him (not to say it’s more than her family but you know..)

Ugh I’m sorry I’m in my feels again I just had to let that out.. don’t get me any further started on crying T at her ceremony I was this 👌 close to jumping off a cliff.

And now finally after many failed attempts to draw, here’s my Pizza Tower OC, █████ "Swirl" Chiffon! (I'm not much of an artist, I'm more of a writer, but I wanted to try anyways.)

Swirl (she/they) is currently in her late 20's and is a barista at her own tea café selling loose-leaf tea, tea accessories, and also various baked goods (which is similar in function to Teavanna when it was still its own corporate entity, minus the baked goods), While not struggling as much as Peppino, Noisette's café does occasionally give her café a run for its money! Though envious at times, ultimately she doesn't let the jealousy get in the way. Sometimes tea is bitter rather than sweet, after all!

(More information if you want below the cut but for the most part this is what you really need to know about her. Thank you once again to Bean, specifically the blog @ask-the-totally-real-peppino ,for inspiring me to create her!)

Before the Tower fell, she was a scientist helping create the clones as Pizzahead exploited her emotions around having children... as well as paying her a great deal for her assistance! (I have my own headcanon that Pizzahead is more of an engineer than a biologist, which is why the clones came out all weird) Though the only stipulations were that if a man named Peppino ever came around to the staff room that she was to fight him off, and to never enter behind one of the doors labeled "War".

Needless to say, she would eventually ignore both, but long after she served her purpose. In fact, the reason she broke those rules was the fact that she'd grown attached to all the clones that she successfully created and wondered where all of them would go. Upon entering the War level, she was pretty much tackle-hugged by all of the clones she helped to create, but was only able to rescue one - the same one that would become a boss in Pizza Tower!

Pretty much she'd already quit by the time that the game's events started getting sick of the manipulation tactics, but Pizzahead still went ahead with his plans in spite of missing an extra boss. Though before she left, she would leave things behind for Peppino to help him reach the top and also undo everything Pizzahead did.

Also, as a small aside, before she went to college, her family ran a bakery. They called her Swirl as a nickname since one time she got into the icing as a baby and it looked like she had colored swirl dyes in her hair.

As for relationships! I'll run through them very quickly:

Peppino: She knows about him, but hasn't met him (yet!). It's kinda hard to not hear an entire tower crumbling - and that was before the news of him being a hero! Though if they ever met she'd be super anxious considering she helped to create the clones and as an extension fears his wrath about it.

Gustavo: Also does not know him. She'd be a lot more chill around him though.

Brick: The rat is fluffy, and big, and soft, and that's all there really is to say on the matter. (Jokes aside, she would love Brick so much.)

Mr. Stick: Doesn't hate him, but also doesn't like him. She respects the hustle, but avoids him and refuses all deals with him.

Pepperman: Not the biggest fan of him, but ultimately she thinks he's harmless. She gets tired of him pretty quickly and ultimately finds excuses to escape social interactions with him.

Vigilante: Loves to hang out with Vigilante. She loves to hear stories about Vigi's grandpa, and before she left the Tower she'd visit Noisette's café just to talk with them.

Noise: She's more skittish and afraid of him if anything else. She doesn't like the pranks he does and often curls up into a ball trying (and failing) to not cry about it.

Noisette: Honestly they consider Noisette one of their (two) friends. Despite the fact that Noisette's café tends to do better than their own café, they don't mind.

Fake Peppino: She loves all of them. Every single one. Without exception. Even if they're from different universes, or have more murderous tendencies. She views all of them as her children and loves all of them equally.

Pizzahead: Without mincing words - she hates the guy. Plain and simple. Pretty much the only person she genuinely hates.

Snick: Absolutely loves the little porcupine dude. She would give him pets if he allowed it.

Honorable mention to Pizzelle!: She would love to hang out with Pizzelle much like with Noisette. She's anxious too, so they could bond and help each other overcome their anxieties!

Other minor characters I didn't mention: Either I forgot about them, or Swirl doesn't have a strong opinion either way.

Other fun facts about her:

She's pretty shy and also has general anxiety, which makes customer service very hard for her. Even though she runs a café, it often smells of lavender and other calming scents from her burning scented candles and incense in an attempt to keep her calm during work hours.

The scribbled out name isn't exactly a "dead" name, but after years of Pizzahead calling her by her first name, she decided to go by her childhood nickname to distance herself from the painful memories.

Swirl is pan! As long as you're not a bad person, she's willing to give people a chance.

She is plus-sized! I tried to convey that in the art but I feel I kinda failed on that front?

She doesn't have a strong leaning towards gender identity, but isn't agender and uses she/they for the sake of ease. One day she'll wear a dress with makeup and jewelery, and then the next she'll wear a tank top and knee-shorts without brushing her hair.

Her Sugary Spire counterpart would be Cream, a disgruntled coffee barista who is a very guarded individual with a goth style. She tries (and fails) to not form an attachment with whatever the Sugary Spire equivalent to the clones will be - though Cream views them more like pets than family.

Hiiiii! 🔮🔮🔮🪄🪄🪄🌟⚓️🤝👹🥤🧃🍻🍻🍉🐸🦎🎤🎮🎼🎵🎙🎉✨️🧨🧹

I just want to start by saying thank you for your constant support. Your comments on my story are so heartwarming and you supporting me even though I'm sometimes an asshole is so overwhelming! I'm trying really hard to work on myself but it's difficult... Alright enough sappyness, time to answer questions!

1. I LOVE A GOOD MUSIC QUESTION!! Uhhh, I love all instruments, each of them is perfect for different types of songs. The drum was the first instrument I learnt how to play, so there's sentimental value there. The piano also has sentimental value, because it reminds me of how me and Hjaldir carried a big-ass piano across the city to The Emerald Bar (the tavern where we lived) because I wanted to learn how to play. But right now, my favourite instrument to play is the hurdy gurdy! It's so complex and actually a bit challenging for me. And not to mention how fucking cool it looks and sounds! AND THE VIOLIN, HOLY SHIT! So many songs go well with the violin, it's basically mandatory for any bard, same as the lute. Lucky for me, I made a spell to conjure spectral lutes and violins. Life got in the way, but once I'm done with all this... prophecy thing, I want to make spells to conjure almost every instrument!

2. I don't remember, to be completely honest. Might have been 'Brave little scrib' or a shanty. But I remember performing the first song I ever wrote like it was yesterday! Ah, I'm going to get emotional with this one, too, but it was the first time performing an original song! It was a big thing for me! Long story short, I saved a cliff racer once, took him at the tavern and cared for it for a few days. He hurt his wing. Endryn had no idea about this! I sneaked the cliff racer in my room! I only told Hjaldir about it and he helped me with him. I named him Sam, after a character in a book I really like. He was super sweet and determined to get better so it was... fitting. But eventually, he got better, and an attic room (a cool attic room, at that) is no place for a cliff racer. As much as I loved him, I had to set him free. "If you really love him, you have to let him go. We cannot be selfish. We must think of his life. I'm sure he loves you back, but he needs to live his own life. If you love someone, you have to think about what's good for them. And sometimes, that means letting them go. That means letting them spread their wings and fly to their own life." That's what Hjaldir told me that day. I learnt a valuable lesson then. So I hugged him one last time and went to the nearest hill and let him go. I cried so much *she laughs*. To cheer me up, Hjaldir invented this whole story about Sammy being a bartender in the cliff racer world and wanting to explore more, but being stuck at his job. A pretty good comparison! And then we wrote this song together! And the first time we performed it, we got a standing ovation at the tavern! *she sighs* Ah, how I love that song and that memory. My author says that I shouldn’t have said that yet, but whatever. *jazz hands* Spoiler alert, or whatever...

3. The eyes, I guess. I mean I see the other more obvious stuff, like hair or body, but it's important to look at someone's eyes, you know? The eyes say it all. Well... almost. But you can tell a lot about someone by the way their eyes look and react to stuff. And if they're big and sparkly and earthy and kind and they get small wrinkles at the corners of their eyes when they laugh... *sighs dreamily but snaps back to reality really quick* yeah, sorry about that. Bottom line is, eyes ate really important. And I *will* look you directly in the eyes when talking to you, that's a threat!

4. Worst? Why would you want to know that? *avoids eye contact as memories of Teldryn coming back badly injured from a job eneter her mind. Memories of getting lost in Vivec and suspicious guards refusing to help her. Visions of conjuring her first storm atronachs and making a mistake in casting the spell, resulting in them attacking her and her teenage self being terrified and thinking she was going to die. Memories of always being afraid that Hjaldir would leave them behind one day and go back to pirating. And finally, memories of finding the lifeless body of Endryn, being possessed by rage and vengeance, becoming a shell of who she used to be, leaving in search of the Dark Brotehrhood, thinking about killing people for the first time in her life, and actually killing people, memories that still haunt her. She shakes her head as if to shun those thoughts away*. I guess... bad hangovers? Everyone hates those, right? There was this one time I woke up after the New Life festival, and as soon as I sat up, I started spewing. I'm talking about violent jets of... you know. Excuse me, I need to use the bathroom. Bad memories, you know?

*several minutes later, after some self convincing that the next question is one that conjures good memories*

5. Sorry about that. Nature calls and all that. Happier than I would ever be? I don't know, really. I try to be happy and greatful for what I have all the time. I don't know how much time I have left... so I suppose I shouldn’t spend it being sad and depressed. I want to say a big "fuck you" to this ugly world by having the best time that I can. My friends help a lot too. I don't know what I would do without them...

Hopefully, I've answered these well. Sorry for zoning out a couple of times, I tend to do that. *she smiles at you* Just know that I am always looking forward to seeing your messages and comments on my adventures💖💖💖💗💓💝💞💘💗💓🙊👻⚘️🌷🌸💮🍓🌟🌘🏅🎉🎁🎊🏴‍☠️

*Author's note: please excuse her overuse of emojis, she is very excited about them.

[the-mortifying-ordeal-of]

yeah I was euphoric and overconfident earlier and that shit has crashed. I'm tired, I'm hungry, I want an entire jar of peanut butter or a goddamn burrito the size of my forearm or literally anything else that will physically hurt. After all my hashtag progress I was literally the exact same at plasma today and I know it's muscle and it's a good thing that theirs registers more than the ones at my family's houses but ughhhhh I wanna know my choices make a fucking differenceeee and I've lost my capacity to urge surf. I wanna get fucked up and ache

Also MUC had invited me to watch a movie tonight even though she knows full well and can see on my calendar that I have Thursday nights blocked off for "therapy homework" (which is only there so she'd stop fucking trying to spend every free goddamn minute with me). I told her no and was proud of myself. Cut to today, she leaves me a tearful voicemail bc she had a shit day at work and was asking if she could stop by my apartment (at LEAST 30 minutes out of her way) for a hug. I wanted to ignore the voicemail, I wanted to say no, but people remember what you do and how you make them feel more than what you say, and I'd just held another crying woman last night who broke down at my offer to help, and MUC needs help and I want my offers to be genuine. So I said yes, she could come by for a hug. I didn't start back up my work audits (I'd just gotten home from plasma) bc I didn't want to be interrupted mid-task but then she took longer than I expected so I was just impatiently hovering in my apartment for her to show up and theN SHE STAYED FOR A FUCKING HOUR. and y'all I am confirmed anxious avoidant, or maybe just straight up avoidant at this point, bc I just want to be alone and I don't want to be needed like that. I can't stand it. Then Ahimsa texted me asking for a "quick 10 minutes call" at 5:30pm so I know she's trashed and it'll be an hour of her talking shit on people and I just can't. I can't. I can't. I'm a black hole. I'm toxic and selfish and negative and I just wanna self destruct.

Not true. I spent most of today reading super uplifting articles about emotional intelligence, trust, engagement, workplace wellness, psychological safety, etc. I know I'm better than my impulses and defenses. But I'm tired and I'm hungry and I've got reeeeal big fuck it attitude rn, which is terrible timing bc my bonus sister is hosting Friendsgiving tomorrow and that is going to be even worse than Halloween. I think my most realistic goal is to not lie to my tracker and to keep moving as much as possible... and not get drunk or spend money. Everything else feels like fair game right now. Including the peanut butter.

Edit: tried 300 of cottage cheese and blueberries. We shall see if that works .. I'm freezing cold now but the pb still sounds good. God I want something hot and sweet .. KOA distact me
