⸺ ✧˖° Introducing the adventurer SEO MINHYUN, a passionate MOON ELF with a fondness of metal smithing and novels. Their admirers endlessly praise them for their skills as a imaginative BARD & their work as a GUILD MEMBER. On the contrary; their rivals will warn you of their tendency to be sensitive and stubborn.
Tumblr media
hiya everyone! i'm eight ( any prns, 26, cst ) and i'm sooo excited to introduce you to my loser son, minhyun. i have some links down below for a lil more info, but there's also a quick intro under the cut. i'm cool with plotting via ims, but i do also have discord available upon request. anyways, tap the heart for me and i’ll take on the quest of raiding your ims for plotting. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀dossier⠀/⠀ memoir⠀/ ⠀appendix⠀/⠀ plots
Tumblr media
key points.
[!!!] majority of minhyun's backstory is inspired by the lore on elves in mordenkainen's tome of foes. he's largely built behind the 100 years he's spent with his parents, as well as the memories of his past lives that he has seen during reverie.
both parents are former adventurers that decided to settle down in jeosung to raise 'byeol'. they're super cute.. childhood friends to lovers.. 2 for 1 combo all their lives.
his mother is an eloquence bard, she could convince you that the grass is blue and the sky is green. she works as a fortune teller (read as: scammer) and has an obsession with the stars. she taught minhyun how to play the lyre and be a menace charismatic, amongst other things.
his father on the other hand is more on the reserved side but still an absolute fool for his wife. he's a bladesinging wizard who taught minhyun everything he knows about sword fighting and smithing. he currently works as a blade smith.
in the first few years of life, whenever he would enter a trance to rest, he would see memories of past lives. one of the lives he would see is that of an adventurer — brave battles, near death moments, a life full of action and traveling. the other life he would see was a lot more mundane — time spent with a lover, a glimpse into a more domestic life.
minhyun's first century of life was fairly sheltered, his days were filled with various lessons on overall survival and navigating safely in this world. majority of the decisions in his life during this time were made by his parents as he was still considered a child.
as each year went by up until his 100th year of living, he would see the memories of his past lives less often, replaced with the new memories he's made in his current life. losing those memories really did a number to minhyun in the beginning, he had been so used to seeing them just to have them snatched away.
on his 100th birthday, he graduated from his child name byeol to his chosen name minhyun.
the first thing he decided to do in his adult life was join a traveling circus troupe. it was a free way to travel, learn new skills, and see new things. he eventually left after 8 years, his final act being at one of their stops back in jeosung.
to sum up the past 17 years that minhyun has been back in the city, he's been a bit more hobby-indulgent, though still sticking to his usual training. he's joined the adventurer's guild, and regularly takes up requests/contracts to keep the funds coming in so he can continue to enjoy his hobbies. overall, he's trying to find himself and the things he enjoys.
personality.
inquisitive.. he's so curious.. asks questions when he feels comfortable enough, good at reading the room when it comes to the annoyance level for him asking so much, though there are times where he'll keep asking to purposely annoy a person.
he can also be a bit nosy.. like he would 100% be one of those neighbors with their ear pressed against the wall while you're arguing with someone in your apartment.
a little bit mischievous (he gets it from his mom); again he can be a tiny bit of a menace when he feels like it, more uncontrolled when he considers you a friend.
passionate about the things he loves, he puts his all into his performances and the jewelry he crafts. not as passionate but more disciplined in keeping up with his training of controlling what memories he revisits during his trance, and his sword fighting.
overall, very friendly and loving.. he's got a big heart.. very.. puppy coded.. loyal boy... good boy...

A is for Ankle Socks
Summary: The first installment in my A-Z of Spencer Reid series. Spencer Reid is very particular about his socks.
Ship: fem ! BAU reader x Spencer Reid
Word count: 2.8k
Warnings: Discussions of case-typical violence, blood, brief description of a fight, minor injury to reader that requires some stitches.
A/N: hello! this is my first ever series and i’m very nervous about it! it’s going to be a chronological a-z series with Spencer, detailing the progression of your relationship!
Spencer Reid permanently wears odd socks. The only time you can recall him wearing matching ones, in the year you’ve known him, was on days he had to go to court. Then, it was required that he wear the technically mandated uniform of proper leather shoes, and monochrome socks. On those days, Hotch would turn up with a pair of black socks tucked into his briefcase, just in case. Spencer had needed them, twice.
However, today is not a court day. Today is day 8 of a case in back of beyond Oregon that, quite frustratingly, seems to be going absolutely nowhere.
It says quite a lot, really, that in a day spent combing over convicts with domestic violence charges, the sight you look up to see is more viscerally disturbing. Spencer’s perched on the end of a desk, as he so often seems to be, his ankles crossed over each other. Signature black converse on his feet. And he appears...not to be wearing socks?
He notices you looking at him, and flicks his eyes downward self-consciously, “Is something wrong?”
“Are you wearing socks?”
He lets out a quiet laugh, “Uh. No. I meant to go to the laundrette last night but then Hotch called us into that meeting. I wasn’t expecting to be out here this long.”
“Is it comfortable?” You ask, “Wearing those without socks?”
He kicks his feet around just slightly, “Not really. I guess I’d forgotten about it until you mentioned.”
“Sorry,” You say, with an apologetic smile.
“Not your fault,” He says, looking back at the paperwork in his lap, “Hey would you mind coming to take a look at this actually? I think I might have something.”
***
By day 2, you’d learnt that the only sandwich shop in town had a reputation for bad food hygiene that none of you felt like risking. Normally, everyone would roll their eyes at Spencer for his investigation into such things. However, in this case, everyone else seemed to be as thankful as you always were.
It’s your turn to do the lunch run today, so you head to the grocery store that isn’t too far out of town. Putting your car in park, you mentally run through the list that the team had given you: cheap pasta for everyone but Rossi, who was willing to risk running foul of their microwave meal selection, as many coffee supplies as you could manage, some sour gummy worms for Spencer, mineral water for Hotch, and tights for you. It was frankly quite impractical to wear the things. You ran through so many brambles, fell down so many times, that you almost felt you should get pantyhose hazard pay. In fall in Oregon though? You’d splash out the $6 for the sake of preventing frostbite. If only because Hotch would be furious.
You smile at the thought. Wandering through the aisles, you collect everything you need. Spencer only asked for a pack of sour gummy worms, but, with a smile on your face, you decide to get him the strawberry laces he likes too.
It’s only when you scan the cart, last minute, that you realise what you’ve forgotten.
Tights. Shit.
Wheeling the cart around, you weave through the aisles looking for them. The underwear aisle is aisle 20, and it looks like it’s been ransacked. Flicking through the disorganised display, you see them.
A five pack of socks, adorned with farm animals and backgrounds of a completely clashing colour. It’s almost too bright for you, but you know a certain sockless Spencer who will be sure to appreciate them. Out of curiousity, you navigate your way over to the men’s section and have a look through. Mostly, it’s all black and navy. Right at the back though, you spy a similarly garish looking pack, this time with vegetables on.
You put them in the basket, eyes flickering over a pair of matching aubergine patterned boxers, as you make your way over to the tights. You select your usual kind, turning your attention back to the boxers.
Is it weird to get him boxers?
He’d know it was a joke, right?
Is it weird to get him socks?
Well he didn’t have any
Yeah but you don’t need to get him two packs
Yes I do we might be here a while
10 more days?
He could fall. He could spill coffee on his shoes. He could get shot.
How would socks help with him getting shot?
Your internal monologue gives you a moments reprieve, and then.
Kinda weird you got him socks
Nobody else would have got him socks
Yeah well I’m just thoughtful.
The last thought crosses your mind without permission, and you almost bristle at the brazenness of your lie to yourself. However, you decide, examining the real reasons you’re so eager to provide comfort to your favourite co-worker would require mental stamina you didn’t have right now. Mental stamina that would be better put to use on the case at hand. Mental stamina that definitely wasn’t being used to employ the BAU’s favourite defense mechanism: denial.
***
“I got you a surprise.”
“A surprise?” Spencer spins around in his chair to face you.
“Yep,” You say, plopping the sweets down onto the desk in front of him and grinning.
“Strawberry laces!” He says, smile lighting up his face, “Thanks ____!”
“That’s not the surprise.”
He quirks his brow, confusion tugging at his features, “Then what’s the surprise?”
You untuck your arms from behind your back, handing him the pairs of socks.
He looks down at them. He’s silent for a moment, and your heart thuds.
Fuck.
Told you it was weird.
It’s definitely weird.
He definitely thinks you’re-
You don’t have time to finish that thought, however, because Spencer scoots his chair back. Standing up, he pulls you into a hug. He gently squeezes you, and when he speaks his voice is low, cracking a little.
“Thank you,” He says quietly, “That was really thoughtful of you. Thank you.”
You lean into him, allowing yourself to be enveloped, “No problem. I know you have some issues with sensory things sometimes and I just thought, you know,” you trail off, “Anyway, I didn’t know which ones you’d prefer and I know you like to mix and match anyway so I just got both.”
He doesn’t say anything. But he squeezes you again, tighter this time, before releasing you. Strangely, he won’t meet your eye as he does.
“I’m gonna go put them on, okay?”
“Okay,” You say, watching a little quizically as he hurriedly heads out of the room.
Derek happens to be heading back to the room, bumping into Spencer on his way out.
“You alright kid?” He asks.
“I'm fine," Spencer says, waving him off. He tries to avoid meeting Derek’s eyes, knowing as well as he does that if the profiler catches the look on his face he’ll be found out.
Derek allows him to shrug past him with a confused glance over his shoulder. He walks into the room, scooping the nearest file off the desk and asking in your general direction, “You know what’s up with him?”
“Nope,” You say, popping the p.
You don’t. And it’d bother you, except you genuinely don’t have time right now to dwell on it. Although, try as you might to focus on narrowing down this list of factories in the area, it niggles at you.
***
You don’t see Spencer again until you’re heading out to the unsubs location. You get called out by Hotch in the minute before he returns, and then it’s all guns blaring. Emily and Dave managed to work some magic with Penelope, and the place he’s holding the hostage has been narrowed down to a factory quite far out of town.
You’re perched in the back, discussing entry tactics with Hotch when your eyes travel down to Spencer’s shoes.
One chicken, and one broccoli sock sit on his left and right feet respectively. It’s hard to see them though, with how far they are down his feet.
Hotch answers his phone then, immediately barking down commands at the local PD who are apparently failing to summon adequate manpower, in Hotch’s opinion at least.
You take the moment to cautiously lean over to Spencer, whispering, “Were they not the right size?”
He smiles at you, “They fit just fine as ankle socks.”
“I’m sorry, I didn’t even think to check the sizes, womens ones are pretty much all one size. I completely forget that men have massively different sized feet.”
He laughs, “Are you suggesting I have huge feet?”
You feel yourself flush a little, “I don’t think that’d necessarily be an inaccurate suggestion.”
Amused, he smiles. Hotch turns around to you both, momentarily taking his eyes off the road, “I need you to call Penelope, and tell her to get us all the CCTV she can get in the area. If we’re going to have to go in without enough men to cover the perimeter we’ll need all the tactical advantages we can get.”
“Of course, sir.”
***
Lunging forward, you tackle the unsub to the ground, effectively freeing Spencer from the grasp he’d previously been held in.
“It’s over Peter,” Hotch’s voice comes, even and steady.
“No it’s not.”
Before you can even register what’s happening, you’re being tossed backwards, landing against some barbed wire. Immediately, you’re on your feet again, running after him. Not noticing how the wire has ripped a hole in your tights, and cut into your leg a little.
Grabbing his arms behind him, you use all your strength to subdue him to the floor, handcuffing him. Wiping the sweat off your brow, you breathe out a deep sigh of relief.
Derek has it from there, patting you on the shoulder and giving you a “Good job kiddo.” He leads Peter out.
You rub your chest, feeling the adrenaline start to flood out of your body with all the excitement now over. A stinging senstation in your calf gets your attention, and looking down you see the nasty wound oozing blood. It isn’t much, nothing that two stitches won’t fix.
“Are you alright?” Spencer asks, having gotten up from his position on the floor, “You didn’t have to...Derek would have gotten him.”
“Why should he be the only one that gets to tackle people?” You ask, letting out a breathless tinkle of a laugh.
“Statistically, he is the one who does the most tackling out of all of us. Then Hotch, then Emily, then Rossi, then me, then you.”
“I am not the one that tackles the least,” You say indignantly.
He tips his head to the side, “Are you gonna argue with the guy who has an eidetic memory or are we going to get you stitched up?”
“Both, please.”
He laughs at that, linking his arm around your waist. You limp against him a little, out to the paramedics. Mostly it’s for Spencer’s benefit. That’s what you tell yourself, you’re letting him help you so he doesn’t feel emasculated.
When has Spencer Reid ever fallen pray to toxic masculinity?
He might have
When?
Well he could
You just like how he smells
It’s true. The faint waft of his cologne is incredibly comforting. He doesn’t loosen his grip on you for even a second, helping to hoist you so you can sit on the ambulance bed while the medics attend to your leg. You’re feeling a little woozy, so Spencer sits next to you, allowing you to lean on him for support.
“Can you tell me something?” You ask, gritting your teeth, “Distract me?”
It doesn’t really hurt, getting stitched up, you’ve just never found it the most comfortable of processes. All your favourite cases have ended with you not having to get sewn up. You know that much.
“I’ve actually only tackled one more person than you in my entire BAU career,” He says, deciding to return to your former discussion, “I didn’t really go out in the field all that much until a couple years in, it was only because of Hotch that I really went out in the field to take down an unsub for the first time. That was March 12th, 2005. You’ve only been here 9 months and have done almost as much physical stuff as me. One more and we’re even.”
“Well, if you could try not to be the person getting tackled by the unsub next time. Then I might not have to make a tackle.”
His mouth turns up at the corner, “You tackled him for me?”
You feel yourself growing embarassed, “Not for you. For the socks.”
“Oh the socks?”
“Yeah, I mean, it’s a little unfair to go putting yourself in harms way while wearing a gift someone got for you. 5 dollar socks Spencer, practically designer at that price, I’d hate to see them ruined day one.”
He laughs, his tone playful, “Well you’ll need to bare that in mind.”
“Huh?”
He tilts his head towards Emily, strutting her way across to the ambulance with Spencer’s go-bag in her arms. She hands it to him, smiling at you.
“Should I let Morgan know the team will no longer be in need of his services?”
You snort, “I’d hate to steal his brand.”
She shakes her head, “Drinks when we get back? Hotch said the jet’s ready for whenever you’re done, and Rossi says he’s buying.”
“You got it,” You nod.
She pats you on the shoulder, exaggeratedly eyeing your leg again and rolling her eyes as she walks away, “Idiot.”
You smile, turning back towards Spencer, “Are you coming for drinks? I can drive you home.”
He visibly considers it for a moment, “Yeah. That’d be nice.”
“You’re all done here,” The paramedic interrupts, wiping down your leg with an anti-bacterial wipe, “Was a really smooth tear for barbed wire, shouldn’t leave that much of a scar.”
They press a bandage over it and you thank them, getting to your feet with the help of Spencer.
“Wait, why’d you get Emily to bring your go-bag if we’re going home?”
He looks almost bashful. Out of his bag, he pulls a three pack of tights. Just the kind you always wear. Down to your preferred brand, and everything.
“When did you-?”
“I noticed you rip them a lot while we’re on cases. I didn’t know if it was weird but then...the socks?” He gestures at his feet, floundering, “I’m sorry if that’s...I just didn’t-”
“No,” You cut off his ramble, “No, Spencer, that’s really sweet. Thank you, thank you so much. Can I hug you?”
He nods, happily. You wrap him into your arms, pressing your face against his chest. Inhaling the scent of him. Reveling in how safe you feel, how protected, thinking how you’d take three hundred stitches if it meant you got Spencer out of harms way. He was so thoughtful, so kind, so attentive to detail.
Oh fuck.
You can barely look at him. It hits you like a train, the realisation. Co-workers save each other from unsubs. Friends buy each other gifts that have meaning and value. But only somebody who is in love feels like this when they get handed tights. Oh.
It’s a warm feeling. Overwhelming. So much so that you miss Spencer saying he’ll be right back, scooting off to Rossi who’s shouting him over with a question the local PD need answering for their report.
You stumble a little, thankful that you have the blood loss and adrenaline rush to blame if anybody were to notice.
You wait for the wave of denial to hit, to come and lock your feelings back in the treasure chest you’ve managed to shove them down into now. It doesn’t come. Instead, you look at Spencer with a sense of awe that feels newfound, but has actually been here all along. Watching him speak to Rossi, you really notice him: just how much he gestures with his hands, how quickly he relays information, how the huge smile on his face, when he turns around to notice you staring, truly meets his eyes.
***
You can’t tell if it makes you a good profiler, or somewhat of a stalker, that you notice Spencer wears the ankle socks you got him to work everyday for the next 9 days.
Spencer worries he’s being a little too obvious, but he can’t help that whenever he sees the socks he beams at them. They remind him of you. Unbeknownst to everybody but Dave (who somehow notices everything), he spends a good minute or so a day sneaking a peek at the novelty socks under his converse. And then trailing his eyes over to you. Thinking how much he loves the person who got them for him.

30 FAVE BOOKMARKS of 2020
Happy New Year’s Eve-Eve, everyone!! 
And welcome to the Last Fic Rec Wednesday of 2020! No one asked for this at all, but I enjoy making unprompted lists for everyone, and I’ve been doing this list since January 2020 :P
I’ve read some FANTASTIC fics this year, and now seems like a good time as any to share with y’all some  of those amazing fics I’ve added to List of Love! I had to even whittle it down today to get it to 25 – the number I like as a “top xx” thing, so I am very disheartened that a lot of my bookmarks this year didn’t make the list :( It’s been a long time since I’ve done a “last XX bookmarked fics” list, maybe I’ll do one of those soon.
First off let’s start with 5 honourable mentions of Other Fandom fics, because I spent a lot of my summer indulging in my renewed Rimmster ship so I have a few amazing RD fics y’all should read LOL
FIVE OTHER-FANDOM HONOURABLE MENTIONS

George weasley first and shy kisses and newt scamander surprise kisses pleasee 👉👈💓
Can I just say how happy I am that you requested one of these with Newt!!!! I love him so much and these were both so much fun to write oh my god! 
~~~
1: George x first kisses & shy kisses
Never before had you been this nervous for something. Not on your first day at Hogwarts. Not the day you tried out for the Quidditch team. Not even when you knew George was going to ask you on this date.
Now though? Now you were practically shaking and not in a good way. Of course, it didn’t help that your friends had not very subtly been following the two of you around all over the castle and Hogsmeade. You and George had only just managed to shake them. You couldn’t figure out why you were so nervous now that you were alone. This was one of your best friends you were talking about. So what if he’d finally asked you out just like you’d been hoping he would for the past year? That didn’t change anything. Right?
George had to constantly remind himself to act natural. But why was acting natural so hard all of a sudden? The two of you had known each other since your first year and he’d been smitten with you just as long. He’d been one hundred percent positive in his choice to finally ask you out. He was certain it was the right move so why was he so nervous sitting beside you in the common room alone? It had been the right choice, right?
You told yourself to relax. The two of you had been in this exact spot dozens of times before. Talking about nothing and everything into the late hours of the night was one of your favorite things to do with George. So with a deep breath, you turned on the couch you were sitting on in front of the fire so you were facing him. When you did so your smile came naturally. How could it not?
You were silent for a few seconds as you took in just how good George looked right then. He smirked when he saw the look you were wearing and laughed when you rolled your eyes. Finally, you grinned as you rested one of your arms on the back of the couch. “Have I ever told you about the first time I snuck out during the summer?”
“You of all people sneaking out?” George laughed a little in disbelief. Sure he’d managed to convince you to do just that dozens of times over the years but when left on your own you were usually pretty calm. Apparently, you were full of surprises, though, and he couldn’t wait to hear more. With a grin, he turned so he was facing you and leaned on the couch the same way you were. “This I have to hear.”
So you told him all about it. How your cousin had wanted to go to a muggle festival that was happening a few towns over. The two of you had taken the floo, two buses, and a cab there and had proceeded to have the time of your life. Until you got lost when it was over and spent half the night wandering around the city trying to figure out where you were.
And there it was. Any nerves you felt faded away as the sound of your laughter mixed together and echoed across the otherwise empty common room. This felt completely natural. No pressure, no eyes following you around, just you and George happily having your own conversation.
Then you looked at him. Really looked at him for what felt like the first time. His eyes were still crinkled a little from laughing and you swear his smile could’ve lit up the room. What you didn’t know was that he was thinking the same thing about you.
It was like a switch flipped. Your smile turned softer and you were painfully aware of the minuscule amount of distance left between you and George. Somewhere along the way the two of you had drifted closer but you didn’t mind, not at all. There was this odd sort of tension growing between the two of you and your eyes locked. You barely processed the fact that slowly you were moving closer to each other.
You watched as his eyes left yours for a moment, flickering down towards what you presumed was your lips before he looked at you once more. He reached forward and one of his hands gently moved to caress your face. You sincerely hoped he couldn’t hear how fast your heart was beating now.
“Is,” George felt this weird combination of excited, nervous, and anxious all at once. This is it, he thought to himself. There was no turning back from this, not that he’d ever want to. “Is this okay?”
You blinked slowly before smiling softly and giving a small nod. “Perfect.”
When he finally kissed you it was soft and barely there, gentle as if to make sure this moment was really happening. Then slowly it deepened just the right amount and your lips started moving in sync and you were sure you’d never felt so full of bliss.
You weren’t too sure how long passed before you parted, foreheads resting against each other, lovestruck looks on both your faces. You’d been wrong before. This moment, this date with George and the kiss you had just shared with him did change things. It changed things between the two of you in the absolute best way possible.
He seemed to be thinking the exact same thing because moments later he leaned forward and kissed you again, deeper this time. Frankly, you couldn’t wait to see what came next.
_________________________________________
2: Newt x surprise kisses
It was as you were sitting cross legged on the floor of a forest beside Newt that you came to a realization.
You were completely and wholeheartedly in love with him.
All you were supposed to do was help him out during the summer, that’s all. But here you were eight months later still traveling all over the world with him.
It was addicting. He was addicting. The feelings you had just come to terms with had only been intensified by the small moments the two of you had shared the last few weeks. Gentle touches, soft smiles, and lingering gazes were quickly becoming more and more common.
Your absolute favorite sight in the world, and you’d seen a lot of it, had become watching Newt talk about his creatures. His eyes would light up when you asked him to tell you more, a wide grin present on his face as he excitedly recalled every bit of information he had and told you.
It was the exact look he was wearing now.
The light of the full moon was slowly becoming brighter and it rose higher in the sky. You were positive you had never seen anybody look as breathtaking as Newt did with the pale moonlight surrounding him.
The two of you were looking for a mooncalf you’d tracked back to that location only a few days before, the goal being to domesticate a herd of them in the suitcase. Your notebook sat unopened in front of you as you took in every word.
“I’ve seen a mooncalf once before as the moon was setting so I didn’t get that good of a look. They’re interesting creatures though. Tonight is the only night we’ll get to see the little guy until next month since they only come out on full moons. And I hear the dance they do is fascinating so that should be fun to watch.”
Just as Newt was about to tell you more he looked away from the field and towards you. His breath caught in his throat when he saw the kind, almost loving look on your face as you smiled at him.
He was tempted to say something. Tell you how much he loved being around you. How he craved your presence when you weren’t there and adored the feeling of your hand in his as you’d walked through the forest earlier. He wanted to tell you how he found himself rapidly falling head over heels in love with you.
He had no idea how to do that though. And so instead he quickly looked away again and continued on about the mooncalves.
Merlin you hoped you were picking up on the right signs. You couldn’t be the only one who felt the connection between the two of you. If it really was all in your head then what you were about to do would be mortifying.
Without processing anything else you dropped your notebook onto the forest floor, reached to turn Newt’s gaze back towards you, leaned forward, and kissed him.
For a moment neither of you dared to move, a little nervous given the uncharted territory you were now in. But then you relaxed and soon enough your lips were moving in sync, hands reaching for each other.
When you pulled away it was to take in a few deep breaths and you both wore matching giddy smiles.
“Can I tell you something at the risk of sounding a little crazy?” Newt held your gaze and as soon as you nodded the words were spilling out of him. “I love you. And I know that it's only been -”
“I love you too,” You grinned before he could continue nervously spitting out words. He seemed surprised for a moment but then he leaned forward and kissed you again, softer this time. You pulled away when you saw movement out of the corner of your eye and grinned again, still trying to catch your breath. You nodded towards the field where a curious looking pale grey creature had just appeared. “Let’s continue this later, yeah? Our mooncalf has finally made an appearance.”
send me a kiss prompt and I’ll write you a drabble

don’t tell scotty (i) - spencer reid
summary: you love ethan, no doubt about it. but you just have so much chemistry with your friend you’ve had for years.
warnings: sexual themes, cheating, angsty spence as always
wc: 2k
a/n: i do not condone cheating at all, but this is a work of fiction. if you aren’t comfortable reading it, then don’t, i won’t take it personal
masterlist
Tumblr media
You laugh slightly as you throw back on your loose t-shirt. Spencer pushes his hair off of his face, as you attempt to smooth down yours. You pull out your phone, glancing at the reflection of the black screen to check your makeup. No makeup smudges, no evident sweat from the activities you and Spencer just partook in,you looked okay.
You put your phone down, looking over at Spencer. He smiles, coming over to you and nipping at your neck. You push him away jokingly, and just as you do, you both hear a knock at the Spencer’s apartment door. Spencer pulls away almost immediately, and you smooth your hair down once again. You quickly think of a topic, and begin speaking as you open the door.
“I think Spock is my favorite character, he really grows the most throughout the series.” You say, opening the door. Your smile grows, seeing Ethan. “Hi!” You say, feigning surprise.
“Hey man, mind if I steal my girl away from you?” Ethan laughs, wrapping his arm around your waist, and placing a kiss on your temple.
Spencer looks down, “Yeah.. that’s okay.” He laughs nervously, stammering a bit.
“Bye Spence.” You smile, “I'll see you bright and early at work tomorrow .” He returns your smile, and you close the door behind you.
You were always a better actor than Spencer.
The dynamic and secrecy worked because of 2 key elements, you and Spencer had been friends for years, and you were almost the same person, save for maybe a few personality quirks.
Over the years, many people had asked why it was you and Ethan, not you and Spencer. The answer was always the same: “We’re too similar, it would be like dating myself.” followed by a laugh of both parties. It turned out though, that being friends for years certainly helped in the activities that you and Spencer often participated in.
Being friends for years worked into the situation by allowing Spencer to be touchy with you. Derek was always touchy and flirty with Penelope… it would make sense to Ethan that Spencer would be flirty with you as well. You never initiated it, there was still a constant fear that Ethan would find out, even though there were things you had in place to make sure that didn’t happen.
For example, everything only ever lasted maybe 10 minutes, the profiler in Spencer and you were worried that Ethan would find it out. The intimate moments were short and sweet. The time didn’t really matter though, as Spencer had you falling apart underneath him in 2 minutes, tops. (something Ethan wasn’t too skilled at). You two seemingly had it all worked out.
Except, Spencer had been hiding something.
It was obvious he wasn’t too good at lying, you covered for him most of the time. But there was something else he was hiding, the extreme jealousy he felt. It wasn’t fair that Ethan got to have you at the end of the day, especially whenever Spencer technically had you first.
It was after the fisher king case, and Spencer had just had enough of the stress. He needed a way to relax, and you happened to want to have a movie night that day. One thing led to another, both parties needing someone to confide in. The next thing Spencer knew, he woke up with you cuddling into his side.
That morning, you had both agreed it would just be that, stress relief. It continued, up until Tobias Hankle. You decided it would be best to give Spencer space. Just a month and a half after that though, the team traveled to New Orleans, where you met Ethan. The chemistry was immediate, JJ and you always joked about how love was in the air that day in New Orleans.
After a few months of dating long distance, Ethan moved up to D.C. It had been one of the best days of your life, and one of the worst days of Spencer’s. He helped Ethan move into his new apartment, and you were there. He watched you and Ethan laugh and share chaste kisses when you thought he wasn’t looking, it broke Spencer’s heart.
3 months went by, and Spencer’s jealousy grew. He keeps it from you. You still go over to his apartment for movie nights, it had become your thing.
Spencer was growing tired of hiding his feelings from you, and one movie night, you had grabbed the remote and started flipping through channels. As you scrolled, you landed on the exact same movie you had been watching whenever you two had first spent the night together.
Something snapped inside of Spencer, and he just took the remote from you, turned your head towards him, and kissed you. He was expecting you to pull away, maybe hit him, and tell him how wrong it was. That was not the case though.
Spencer pulled away after maybe a second and a half. And examined the look in your eyes. It wasn’t one of guilt or anger, but one of lust. You bit your lip, and gave him another kiss, slowly climbing on top of him. After pulling away once again, Spencer looked in your eyes, hand falling to your cheek.
“Are you sure you want to do this?” He asked, and you nodded.
“Yeah, just stress relief, right?” You asked, smiling and looking down at his chest and neck.
Spencer’s other hand balled into a fist, out of your view. He cleared his throat, and then copied your smile, “Right, just stress relief.” He confirmed, presses kisses down your jaw.
After you were finished, you put your clothes back on, and said you had to be on your way. Enough time had passed, it might be suspicious, you had said.
So, for the past year and a half, this had been the schedule. Sundays were movie nights, as they always had been, there was just sometimes a lot more touching and passion involved. (more often times than not)
Though it had been nearly two years, each and every time you and Spencer had sex, there was still some sliver of hope inside him. Hope that you would finally say, “I’m breaking up with Ethan. It’s always been you Spence.”
He replayed this situation hundreds of times in his mind. Every Sunday when you would leave, he half expected you to say it after you pressed a kiss to his cheek. The words never made their way past your lips, sadly.
Each time after you left, Spencer stood by the door, his hand resting on it after he closed it. He waited for around 3 minutes, he figured that was enough time to wait, just in case you wanted to have a movie moment where you run back into his apartment to confess your love to him.
That never happened.
After waiting, he would step away slowly, making his way to the bathroom. He turned on the shower, turning it to the hottest he could take, and stepped in after taking off all his clothes. The hot water would run all over his hair and face, and he would brush his curls off his face.
Each and every time, Spencer would grab the soap, and begin scrubbing and scrubbing his body. He told himself he was just getting clean, but it would get to the point where he was going over the same spot nearly 5 times.
Perhaps subconsciously, Spencer was trying to cleanse himself of the immense jealousy and hatred he felt. He hated you, god he fucking hated you. He hated the way he felt around you, the way his heart simultaneously sunk and swelled at the sight of you.
Spencer fucking hated you for putting him in this situation.
After scrubbing himself nearly raw, Spencer would get out of the shower. He would get dressed in only pants, and lie in bed. He would fall asleep early, cursing you in his mind.
Then, on Monday, the following day, he would beg for Sunday to come quicker.
~
Sometimes, when the team would leave the state on cases, you and Spencer would share a room together. Today was one of those times.
Spencer gritted his teeth as he walked past you and Ethan, you two were hugging, and you pulled away as you adjusted your bag.
“I’m really sorry we have to be away on your birthday week. We’ll celebrate as soon as I get back, okay?” You asked, looking at Ethan. He nods, giving you a quick kiss. You smile, walking towards the plane.
“Take care of her for me Reid.” Ethan calls, and Spencer offers a smile in return, nodding.
If only he knew.
Spencer bumps his elbow into you, and you give a shy smile, rolling your eyes. After everything, you were still actually really good friends. You sit next to each other on the jet, and Spencer shows you his favorite excerpts of the book he’s reading. It felt almost...domestic. And that’s where the problem will lie.
~
You solve the case you were working in a few days, but the arrest is made pretty late at night. Hotch decides to just fly out in the morning, let the team get rest in the hotel before they leave.
It had passed midnight, meaning it was now Ethan’s birthday. You and Spencer trudged into your shared hotel room, and you nearly collapse onto the bed. Spencer smiles, throwing his bag down.
He comes up beside you, pressing gentle kisses to your jaw. It felt good to be close to each other, to share a close space. Things devolved quickly, kisses being pressed closer to your cleavage, you pulling for Spencer’s shirt to be unbuttoned.
Spencer’s touch felt good as always, but there was something so incredibly bad (in a good way) about doing something so naughty on your boyfriend's birthday.
All thoughts of Ethan drifted away when Spencer’s hands went between your thighs, though.
~
Spencer wakes up as daylight pours into the hotel room. He smiles, adjusting his arms around you. The feeling of waking up with his arms around you just felt so right. Spencer wanted to do it every morning. He wanted to fall asleep with you every night.
But he couldn’t. He attempts to brush all bad feelings away as he sunk closer into you. The sudden movement makes your eyes open, and Spencer brushes the hair out of your eyes.
“Hey baby,” You say softly. Spencer thought it was very odd, as pet names had only been used for you two during sex. He ignored it though relishing in the feeling of being called a domestic name.
You cleared your throat, “What time does the plane leave?” You ask, and Spencer replies with, “Around ten, and it’s 8:30 now.” He says, looking over at the clock.
You get out of bed, rubbing your eyes as you walk towards the bathroom. Spencer hears the shower turn on, and he smirks. You were too fucked out last night to take a shower last night, Spencer told you to just fall asleep in his arms.
You were both ready within an hour, and went down to the lobby to meet the team eventually.
~
On the plane, you two sat next to each other as usual. There was a chess board in between you two, and Spencer was attempting to teach you a new strategy. After winning for about the 6th time, Spencer got up to make himself some more coffee.
As he stood at the sort of coffee table, Derek came out of the bathroom. Spencer smiled at him, stirring his coffee with the stick provided. Spencer noticed Derek had a slightly solemn look on his face, and Spencer drew his eyebrows together.
Derek moved his head to Spencer’s ear, lowering his voice. “Just letting you know, our hotel rooms were pretty much next to each other, and the walls were pretty thin.”
Spencer’s eyes widen, but he quickly subdues his reaction. He looks at Derek, and Derek just pats his shoulder, returning to his seat.
Spencer stills for a moment, but eventually makes his way back to his seat as well. He continues teaching you the new strategy, but is distracted by Derek’s revelation the whole rest of the flight.

Hii! ♡ Could you do a CEO!Jaehyun x reader where they have been married for a few years but the media doesn't know that (because she doesn't like being a center of attention and she's super introvert), and ranks him as "One of the Most Wanted Men", and there's a shock to everyone when they find out he's married?
a/n: hi anon, of course I can! love me some CEO!Jaehyun :’)
Part 1 || Part 2 
Warnings/Details: lots of fluff, slight angst, some kissing
marrying jung jaehyun was the best decision you’ve made in your whole life
you met him while you were waitressing at a restaurant
it was one of those 5 star dining places that was in the heart of downtown, had a waiting list five months long, and a valet out front
you were serving his table, which was filled with him and men who looked like they could all be in Forbes’ 400 list
in fact, you recognized him from the cover of several magazines you always pass by on your way to work, claiming him to be “One of the Most Wanted Men”
so when you saw him sitting before you, he definitely caught your eye
he looked like if he got a paper cut, he would bleed money
he wore a navy suit with gold accessories and a diamond gaze that stared you down and didn’t leave you all night (much to your surprise)
you about had a heart attack when you were fixing up the table after his party left and found a five thousand dollar tip along with jaehyun’s name and phone number
you originally agreed to meet up with him to give the money back
you got generous amounts in tips all the time, but five thousand dollars was too much for you
when you arrived at the address he gave you, you were surprised to find it was a diner on a little street in midtown that served breakfast food all day long
when you walked in, the bell above the door jingled but jaehyun could’ve sworn he heard church bells ringing instead
he was absolutely enamored by you 
never one to believe at love at first sight, his beliefs were squabbled by one look at you
and as you approached him dressed in a mocha colored dress and your hair in loose braids, he felt himself gulp and his hands become sweaty
he didn’t even get this nervous when handling millions of dollars at a time
you, on the other hand, were surprised when you saw him
he was wearing a sweater and black jeans with silver rings on his fingers and glasses perched on his nose
you felt a bit guilty that you judged him so quickly
he didn’t look rich and snobby, as your first impression of him made you think
he looked cozy and homey
this jaehyun looked like if he were to get a paper cut, he would bleed warmth and love
maybe that’s why you decided to sit down across from him and share a stack of chocolate chip waffles with him that late afternoon
(you both decided to leave the five thousand dollars as a tip to the nice, old waitress that was serving you- she kept calling you “honey” and gave you extra waffles for free)
you agreed to date jaehyun and started learning about who he really is
how he’s more than just the one dimensional figure the media makes him out to be
you felt comfortable and domestic with jaehyun
but it took you a long time to trust him
once you did, jaehyun dropped to one knee and promised you himself for the rest of his life
and you knew- still know now- that he meant it 
during the three years you’ve been married so far, you learned a lot about  the media and how to stay out of their sights
it wasn’t that you didn’t want your relationship with jaehyun to be known to the whole world
you just didn’t feel 100% comfortable with having your name and face plastered for everyone to see
for jaehyun, who has been the face of his company and in the media for almost his whole life, this was confusing
it even caused some arguments to arise early in your relationship
but over time, jaehyun learned to understand and respect this introverted side of you
it’s now another characteristic about you that he loves
it’s part of what makes you you
the years you spent married to jaehyun were the happiest years of your life so far
he treated you fairly, respected your decisions, and when he confessed one night of how much you’ve taught him in your short few years together, you’ve never felt closer to another human being in your whole life
jung jaehyun was a blessing in disguise that people could only pray and wish for
but things were about to get a little bumpy
jaehyun had told you that morning he would be in his office late that night, a weekly occurrence that you’ve grown used to
but when you got a call from jaehyun’s private phone, his gravelly voice begging for you to come and give him company in his lonely office
how could you say no?
the chauffeur drove you to jaehyun’s company building and you stepped out of the car with a coat on, a scarf covering your mouth and your hood up
the ride up to the top floor was silent and walking through the top floor of the building was a bit creepy this late at night, not even jaehyun’s secretary was at his desk
you knock on the slightly ajar door as a smile crosses your lips
“mr. jung, you’ve got a visitor.” 
jaehyun looks up from his papers, confusion morphing into happiness when he realizes it’s just you
his office is dark except for the desk lamp that sits in the corner of his table and the whole wall made of windows behind him, overlooking the downtown portion of the city below
you round the desk and jaehyun’s smile deepens as you approach him
you grip his hands and force him to stand up
“you need to stretch, jae. you’re gonna be one of those hunched-over old men when you’re older.” you tease and he laughs as his long arms stretch over his head and to the ceiling
you reach out and rub his belly, making him laugh some more and bring his hands down and around you to pull you closer
you encircle his waist with your arms, settling your face into his chest and breathing deeply
“I missed you so much” jaehyun mumbles into your hair
“you saw me this morning” you retaliate
“for ten minutes. that’s not enough for me.” he whines and you lean away to look up at him
even though you’ve been together for years, jaehyun has aged gracefully 
he still looks as amazing as he did when you first saw him
your favorite feature of his has to be his hair, it’s silky properties too tempting to not run your hands through
so you do just that, and jaehyun practically purrs at your affection
in his blissful state, he leans in to sweetly kiss your lips
he removes your scarf and helps take off your coat somewhere between the kisses
his lips eventually travel down to the skin at your neck and shoulder
it’s innocent
he just wants to feel you
he misses the way your skin feels under his lips and the way your smell invades his senses
it’s still intoxicating to him and he absolutely loves it
he leans away after his slow and loving kisses, giving you a lazy smile and sitting back down in his seat, pulling you on top of him
“aren’t you supposed to be doing your work, mr. jung?” you ask as jaehyun holds you, stroking your thigh and looking out at the city through the wall of windows
“I have a guest, that would be rude.” he teases
your left hand catches his eye and he reaches out to gently grab it
your wedding ring sits nicely around your finger, the diamond on it still gleaming in the dim room with the engagement band sitting under it cozily
it’s been years, but jaehyun can’t believe that he got to put both of these rings onto your finger
his concentration is broken by a ding from his phone
it makes him jump and he turns both of you around in his chair
he reaches for his phone and opens up the message from his PR agent as you lean your head against the top of his
the peacefulness and quit atmosphere is broken when you see the contents of the text
it’s a blurry picture of you from just a few moments ago
you’re walking into the company building, your hood up and your scarf covering your face
but the ring on your left hand is painfully visible, practically glowing as you raise your hand up to keep the scarf to your mouth
the next picture is of you and jaehyun
kissing
through the windows of his office
you can tell it’s you by the coat and the scarf
and the diamond on your finger that still shines brightly
“oh my god” a hand covers your mouth when you read the rest of the message from jaehyun’s PR agent
the pictures were released to a celebrity news company and are being spread on the internet right now
jaehyun pushes you off him and strides to the curtains for the wall of windows
he furiously shuts them, the room turning darker with the absence of the city lights
jaehyun leans his hands over his head against the curtains, head bowed down and his shoulders rising and falling deeply
“jaehyun…” you try to call out to him but he doesn’t move 
so you take a moment to digest what just happened
those pictures are circling around, but maybe people would stay confused long enough for jaehyun’s PR agents to think up of an excuse?
you still can’t help but feel unsettled by how your privacy was ripped away from you so suddenly and fiercely
“I’m sorry” jaehyun finally speaks up and turns around
his eyes are bloodshot and he looks completely different from how he did five minutes ago
“I shouldn’t have asked you to come here, this wouldn’t have happened.”
“jaehyun, no.” you try to say but he shakes his head
you approach him, taking hold of his hands that have fallen limp at his sides
“don’t blame yourself. I should’ve been more careful.” your try to console him, but you can tell it’s not helping. “it was about time people found out…” you trail off in a sigh
you kept your marriage a secret with jaehyun for several years
maybe you were too hopeful– too lucky to think that you could continue to be a secret part of jaehyun’s life
“I’m sorry it had to happen this way.” jaehyun hopes and prays you’ll forgive him
you say it’s okay, but the tension in your face and the slight panic that’s starting to reach your eyes makes him more anxious and worried
he’s lost so many things in his life due to the media: past girlfriends, business deals, friends, and even family…
he can’t loose you too
“let’s go home.” he says but you don’t budge
“is it…safe?” you ask
jaehyun has been surrounded by paparazzi for several years, he rarely gets nervous or frustrated with the camera flashes or the close proximity
but you’ve never had to deal with that before
you still get camera shy when jaehyun tries to take a picture of you
and just the thought of the worst case scenario happening makes jaehyun’s stomach churn and a cold sweat break out in his palms
“well, we can’t stay here…”
but when you roll your lips between your teeth and look up at him, scared and unprepared
jaehyun can’t force you to face the media now
not this suddenly and definitely not when rumors are surely going around about you
this is how you end up turning the couch in jaehyun’s office into your bed for tonight
your shoes on the ground next to you, your accessories on the coffee table, and jaehyun’s suit jacket as a makeshift blanket for you both
the couch is expensive and pretty big, but tough on your back
you’re surprised that you can fall asleep
but jaehyun lays beside you, sleep not coming as easily for him
he watches you slumber, guilt and a touch of fear pooling in his chest as he thinks about the new situation you’ve gotten yourselves into
years ago, you let yourself trust him enough to promise to stay with him for the rest of your life
jaehyun has never broken a promise, he’s made sure the trust you put into him is justified 
it scares him every time fate sends an opportunity to show an act of trust his way
will you make it out with your relationship in tact this time?
before he can continue his thoughts, you shuffle in your spot next to him and crack an eye open to see that he’s still awake
“jaehyun…” you mumble, “sleep. it’ll be okay.” you mumble some more
before you can fall back into your dreams, your hand blindly reaches out to meet with jaehyun’s
you intertwine your fingers and lay your hands over your stomach, the slow rise and fall enough to calm jaehyun, even if it’s only temporarily
he rests his head against yours, nose in your hair and his heart beat against your back
yes, you’ve gone through so much in your relatively short time together
and you’ll pull through this as a couple stronger than before
everything will be okay

Not Scary To Me Pt.2
Character: Washio x single mom reader
*I would highly recommend reading Pt.1 if you want this to make any sense*
Pt.1-Pt.3
TW- mentions of toxic relationships and divorce, sad times for my mans Washio, mutual pining
Tumblr media
 When you got there Komori and Suna were still tormenting Sakusa and Atsumu, Hinata had arrived and was talking with Meian and Tomas and Washio had started warming up with some of his other teammates. Bokuto had also arrived, something about his oven on fire? You spent the remainder of the hour getting paperwork and legal forms done, running back and forth between the main office and the gym. 
When the match started you were finally at a point where you could do your work in one place, so you chose the gym. You loved watching the team play, for starters they were really good! And it brought back memories of when you used to watch Washio play. And he just so happened to be playing on the court right in front of your eyes. It brought back a lot of memories watching him play. While you were watching the game, you zoned out and went back to when the two of you were in your second year. 
That game had been a particularly hard one. The whole team was struggling. Bokuto was long since in his emo mode, poor first year Akaashi was struggling to get him back up to speed and Washio was having an exceptionally hard time going against this third year spiker from another school. The game ended, and Fukurodani ended up losing…luckily it wasn’t an important game, really just a practice match, but it was the first game with the new starting line up so mistakes were bound to happen. 
After the coaches gave their input/advice and the players were dismissed, Washio made his way into a secluded hallway and sat down at one of the benches. He was blaming himself, you knew he was as soon as the game ended. You quickly went up to Konoha, asking if he knew where he was. He didn’t know his friends exact location but he knew the general direction so you thanked him and went on your way. 
When you finally found him he was bent over with his elbows resting on his knees and his head in his hands. Without saying anything you had knelt down in front of him, asking him to look at you. When he did, and you saw tears in his charcoal gray eyes it took every nerve in your body to will yourself from crying. And you weren’t even the one that lost! You were quick to pull him into a hug, your resolve almost cracking when you felt his arms weakly surround you before gripping onto you tightly. 
That was the night you knew, you just knew you had fallen in love with him. But with everything going on with Ken, and school you pushed the thought aside. But now, years later watching him play again, you can feel those feelings resurface. Except now you have Emiko to think about…
”WATCH OUT!” 
Your head shot up and you let out a squeak as you ducked, narrowly missing a ball that was headed straight for your face. Washio hurriedly made his way over to you, much to the satisfaction of his teammates. “Are you okay?” You shot him a smile as you fixed your hair and what not. “I’m alright, I got plenty of practice in high school.” You gave him a cheeky smile as he dead panned, a tint of pink traveling across his face. “I only hit you with one once.” 
You laughed before you heard a ‘oops, my bad’ from who you remembered to be Suna, looking over you saw him and Komori were smirking at something. Shooting the two a glare Washio retrieved the ball and made his way over to the court, getting a nice slap on the back from Komori and a ‘nice’ from Suna. You couldn’t contain the dorky smile on your face, shaking your head as you got back to work. When it came time for a water break, the teams retreated to their respective sides of the gym. 
“So, ya got the hots for their middle blocker huh?” You looked up from handing the team their water bottles to give Atsumu a glare. “Shut up Atsumu. We were friends in high school, we hadn’t seen each other till today.” Atsumu nodded, his mouth forming an ‘oh’. “But, you do still like him, right?” You stilled at that as you quickly looked to Bokuto, Hinata slapping a hand over his mouth. “Don’t say it out loud!” You see, during one of your outings with the boys, they had asked you about your past, Bokuto telling the story of you and Washio. Or rather the ‘almost love story’ as he called it. 
Of course, none of them could be bothered to tell you he was on EJP. (They purposefully told Bokuto to come in late so he couldn’t spoil the secret. Hinata was in charge of him :0) Bokuto looked at you strangely before looking at Washio and back at you. “But if he feels the same way what’s the problem? Plus that jerk isn’t there anymore”. You crossed your arms over your chest and sighed, “It’s a little more complicated than that…” he continued to look confused until Sakusa smacked him upside the head. 
“Don’t be so simpleminded. There’s a lot of things they both need to consider. Especially with Emiko involved.” Bokuto got it then, even if the situation still made him scratch his head sometimes. The game ended with MSBY winning 3-2, but both teams played well. “Tatsuki!” The middle blocker turned to see you walking over to him. He took one last drink of his water bottle and dried his face with his towel before turning to face you. 
“Yeah?” she looked down before looking back to him, “Would you like to join Emiko and I for dinner? I just went to see her, and she was adamant ‘Mr. Washio’ came too. It’s okay if you can’t but..” He smiled and shook his head “I’d love to, just tell me when and where.” Your smile was almost blinding at this point, and to Washio it was a nice breath of fresh air. “Okay! I’ll text you the details~ I’ve gotta go, I’ll see you later?” Washio nodded his head. “See you, Y/n.” 
With one last wave she walked out of the gym and headed towards her home, after picking up little Emiko of course. Washio went back to the locker room, showered and got changed into some casual clothes (during all of which he was choosing to ignore the smirks his two younger teammates were giving him.). *bzz bzz* he looked at his phone to see a text from an unsaved number.
Y/n: Hey Tatsuki! This is Y/n. Our address is xxx xxxx St. Go ahead and come around 5:30! Can’t wait to see you
 He smiled at that last part, ‘can’t wait to see you either, Y/n.’
 Tatsuki: I’ll be there, I’m looking forward to it :)
 It was 5:13 so he exited the stadium (after telling off his nosey juniors) and made his way to the address you had sent him. You however, were not as calm. Currently you were running around the kitchen, mixing and chopping things left and right. You looked at the time ‘5:13, okay, it’s fine, this is all fine! I have time…’ You set the timer on the oven and rushed upstairs, checking in on Emiko to make sure she was fine, and taking a quick shower. Now for the hard part…what to wear. 
On one hand you were home and didn’t really want to, or need to but on the other hand the man you’ve been in love with for a good 8 years was coming to your house for dinner so…a nice sweater and overpriced leggings it is. ‘okay…it’s 5:24 so he’ll probably-‘ Your thoughts were cut short when you heard knocking at the front door. Quickly focusing your thoughts, you rushed downstairs before checking the peephole 
**ALWAYS CHECK THE PEEPHOLE/WINDOW BEFORE YOU EVER OPEN A DOOR IT IS WORTH IT. USE A DOOR CHAIN OR SOMETHING TOO IT IS WORTH THE EXTRA FEW SECONDS!!***
 and opening the door when you saw it was him. “Tatsuki! Come in!” he thanked you and walked in, removing his shoes as you led him inside. “Emiko! Mr. Washio’s here!” Looking up the stairs you heard little footsteps before you saw a small head pop out from her play room. She then made her way down the stairs and over to Washio, giving his leg a little hug before she sat down on the rug in the living room. “Dinners almost ready, you can have a seat in the living room if you want.” 
He nodded, “Do you need help with anything, don’t say no if you do I don’t mind.” You just smiled, you never could stop him from helping you. “Well, if you insist I could use some help.” The two of you moved into the kitchen, you pulling dinner out of the oven and him, with your direction of course, getting out the plates and such. “Hey Tatsuki?” he turned to look at you, “Yes?” “Could you help me get this bowl? I can’t reach it.” He just nodded before he reached up and grabbed it, unintentionally flexing his muscles which were nicely defined by the navy blue button down he was wearing. 
Averting your gaze and releasing a small ‘thank you’ you quickly resumed your previous task hoping he wouldn’t catch onto your embarrassment. “Emiko, dinner’s ready” The little girl happily made her way to the table, lifting her arms to be set in her booster seat. Setting the plates and dinner onto the table, you sat across from Emiko while Washio took the seat at the head of the table. ‘Just like a family…’
You quickly shook your head and tried to push the thought out of your head. But as the dinner went on, it kept feeling more and more normal, more and more domestic. And you were feeling…really really happy. Fulfilled. As soon as she finished her dinner, Emiko lifted her arms, her usual signal to be let out of her chair. But instead of turning to you like she usually would, she looked at Washio. “Up!” you looked at her, “Oops, up, please!” She gave him the cutest smile as her little arms reached above her head. Washio thought his soul was going to leave his body. 
Breaking himself free of his thoughts he nodded his head as he stood up, helped the little girl down from her chair and almost cried when she hugged his leg and said “Thanks Washio!” Before you could even scold her for being informal, you saw the look of pure joy on his face when he sat down. “Y’know…you must be really special if she asked you to do that, and if she hugged you.” Washio looked over to you with a confused expression, “What do you mean?” You sighed as you placed your elbow on the table and your face on your palm, eyes drifting to where your little Emiko was playing with Bunny. 
“She’s usually painfully shy, I’m lucky to get her to talk to anyone other than family, let alone kids her age.” You then turned your gaze to look at him instead, his dark eyes moving to meet yours. “It means a lot if you two just met and she’s already infatuated with you. It means a lot to me too…” The rest of the evening was spent by the two of you catching up on what’s been going on in your lives for the past 5 years. It was about eight now, Washio didn’t have a specific time he needed to go since they were allowed to head back to Hiroshima whenever since today was Thursday and he didn’t have to work tomorrow. 
(Suna and Komori convinced the coach to give them the next day off, they gotta help their mans Washio!!) And since the two of you were having so much fun, he figured he could stand to stay a bit longer. “I’m gonna put Emiko to bed, I should be down in about 15 minutes.” You told him as you picked up the sleepy toddler. “Say goodnight, Emiko.” The little girl sleepily smiled at him before lightly waving “Goodnight Washio” before she returned her head to her mother’s shoulder. 
You got her changed into her PJ’s, read her a story, and got her tucked in when “Mommy?” You paused from turning off her light, “Yes honey?” she seemed to squirm a bit. “Will I get to see Washio again? I heard you say he lived far a way…” You gave her a smile, “Yes baby, you’ll see him again.” Your daughter than put on a sleepy little smile and closed her eyes, “That’s good…night mommy.” You turned off her light and cracked the door shut, you left it open so your cat, Kitty, could get in if he so pleased and cuddle with her. “Goodnight Emiko, I love you.” You heard a drowsy, ‘love you too’ before you left to go back downstairs. 
When you came back down to the living room, you saw Washio hang up on a phone call. “Sorry I should have made sure before hand, but, do you have a ride home? It’s getting late..” he looked at you and you could have sworn he looked flustered but you let it go. He sighed before explaining the call was from his teammates, letting him know they were leaving him and to come home whenever since they had the weekend off. “Well, do you want to stay here? We have a spare bedroom and my brother left some clothes here…” He opened his mouth, probably to refuse but before he could you cut him off, “It’s no problem, really! I took the day tomorrow to spend with Emiko and I know she’d love it if you came along so, really it’s no problem.” 
You gave him ‘the look’, which just so happened to be the same ‘look’ you gave him in high school when you wanted something, knowing he couldn’t say no. “Thank you…tonight’s been really nice.” You couldn’t help the flutter his words put in your heart, choosing to channel them into a shy smile. “Me too…” Not wanting this to turn into an awkward silence you clapped your hands together. “Alright. Since you’re going to stay here, you can help me with the dishes.” Chuckling a bit he nodded his head, unbuttoning the cuffs of his shirt and rolling the dark blue sleeves up to his elbows. (Tell me I’m not the only one who just diEd) 
The two of you made your way to the kitchen sink. Being a middle blocker he was keen and observant, and having dealt with Bokuto’s mood swings, he was also keen and observant of people and their reactions. To be clear; he was very much aware of the way you couldn’t stop looking at his arms, it had been intentional after all. After knowing him for so long and seeing the mischievous glint in his eye and the small smile he had stuck to his face, you caught on that he was probably teasing you. ‘Two can play at that game.’ 
You inwardly smirked as you took off your sweater, revealing the tank top you had been wearing underneath (idk if you wear tank tops under your stuff bUT THIS AIN’T THAT TYPE OF STORY So you did). Turning around you lightly laughed when you saw how pink his face had gotten. “I didn’t know this was a competition” His face held a playful smirk as he joined you at the sink. Your expression matched his as you started washing and he dried. “It wasn’t until I won~” 
He shook his head but couldn’t shake the smile that had formed a permanent residence on his face since he had re-connected with you. After the dishes were done, with only a *little* splashing each other with the water, you two retired to the couch and continued your chat. It was about 10 when you decided it was a good idea to get to bed him, having played an intense game earlier in the day, agreed. You gave him some sweatpants and a shirt to wear, which were a bit snug since he was quite a bit bigger than your older brother, but he accepted them gratefully. 
After making sure everything was in order you shut off all the lights and showed him to the guest bedroom. “Goodnight Tatsuki and thank you for visiting…it’s been really nice. I hope we get to do it more often.” You said this as you gave him a hug, one he of course returned. “Thank you for having me…it means a lot…Goodnight Y/n” You nodded as you both separated, you giving him a small wave as you retreated into your bedroom shutting the door and turning off your light before getting into bed.

It’s that time again! Thank you to all the fandom content creators for your art. Here are the best fics I read this month, and they’re all masterpieces. This rec includes 12 fics from the Teen Wolf and One Direction fandoms. The starred ones have made me forget my worries for a moment.
Sterek (Teen Wolf)
1. He’s…something by @acountrygirlsfun | shapeshifter Stiles - miscommunication - Derek doesn’t know how to show emotions - secret relationship - 22k
Stiles has to admit, keeping his secret under wraps is easier than he expected around his new-found werewolf friends.
Except for the Alpha that is never where he should be.
2. I Wanna Let Go And Know That I’ll Be Alright [orphaned] | bad Scott - healing - pre-Sterek - post-S5A - 21k
When Scott tells Stiles to ‘take a step back’ from pack life, Stiles takes it as an invitation to get his life back on track - sans the supernatural.
3. When the Universe Comes Knocking (It’s Polite to Open the Door) by @isthatbloodonhisshirt | high school crushes meet again! - oblivious boys - just KISS - secretary Stiles - 135k
It was like a door he’d nailed shut in his brain suddenly exploded open, all of his past confusion and anger and hurt and adoration flooding out at once. Stiles? Was it actually Stiles?!
Stiles, the guy he’d had a crush on for fucking years growing up. The guy who’d been an absolute dick to him their whole last year of high school.
The guy who’d told him he loved him in a dirty men’s bathroom on prom night while drunk and upset because he thought Kira was Derek’s girlfriend.
4. Your Love is Like an Ax to the Face (or, Plundering Hearts: Viking Edition) by @ghost-of-erica-reyes | college au - as slow burn as a 16k fic can be - enemies to friends to lovers - oblivious boys - 16k
In which Lydia is a ruthless walking fortune cookie, Scott is exposed to the relationship-curing potential of ménages-à-trois, and more importantly, Stiles is convinced he’s pissed off the wrong deity in Valhalla because the closest thing he gets to action is the weekly — and deadly — debates he has with his grumpy TA from History 201: Introduction to Vikings. All of this to Erica’s enjoyment.
Urgh, college.
5. I don’t need any help to be breakable (believe me) by @myhyperheart-alone | amnesia - so much fucking angst with a happy ending -  mutual pining - therapy - 35k
“He tried to kiss me.” “We know”, Scott says, placatingly, and Stiles rounds on him, fists clenched and eyes blazing. “No. No, you don’t”, he spits, “You have no idea.”
In which Derek has an accident and doesn’t remember anyone except Stiles.
6. *Ardently* by redpenny | regent au - chubby Stiles - disabled Derek - this is SO cute!!! - 13k
Mr Stilinski contends with the loss of his family’s funds, an unfortunate predilection for pastries, and an inconvenient attraction to this Season’s most eligible bachelor.
Lord Hale contends with a reluctant return to Society, hiding a war injury from meddling sisters, and the trials of courting a thoroughly oblivious young man.
7. *Puzzle Pieces* by @isthatbloodonhisshirt | can y’all believe the same author got 2 fics on here? I’m sorry for the notifications - and they were mates omg they were mates - ski resort - the boys are bad at communicating #surprise! - 89k
“Okay.” Stiles glanced at his phone, wincing at the battery being close to ten percent. It was probably time to call Scott. Turning off the flashlight, mostly to save battery and kind of freaking out over how dark it was—though the half-moon reflecting off the snow helped a bit—he opened his contacts with shaking hands and scrolled through to Scott’s name. Once he hit it, he put the phone to his ear, looking around, and froze.
The phone rang in his ear, but his eyes were locked on something big and moving through the trees.
Oh no. Oh no, no, no.
Larry (One Direction)
8. oh we’re in love aren’t we by @eeveelou | Harry is a trans man - college au - Harry is quirky and Louis loves it - so much fluff - 20k
Louis is trying to get through his second year of university while dealing with his three stupidly loud and stupidly in love roommates, a series of boring classes, and his job working the graveyard shift at his campus’s favorite drunk food shop. Harry is new to town and looking for somewhere to live when he finds a long-abandoned apartment that brings him right to Louis’s doorstep.
9. *a bright future behind you* by @socomicallygay | Orange is the New Black au - girl direction - there is a zourry threesome moment - this fic is hot hot hot and sweet sweet sweet - 12k
Orange is the New Black AU. Louis fucks a lot of people, Harry eats a lot of ass, Niall will smuggle a dildo to whomever gets more play, and Zayn thinks Harry and Louis should just make out already.
10. Say It First by rearviewdreamer | this so fucky angsty with a happy ending it had me yelling at Harry - groundhog day time travel - high school au - domestic fluff - 25k
When it comes to Louis, Harry feels like he has spent a lifetime getting it wrong, but on a chance night together where time mostly seems to be on his side, he gets the opportunity to try it all again. And again, and again, and again in an attempt to finally get it right before it’s too late.
11. A Real Work of Art by @lululawrence | high school au - childhood friends Larry - Harry is Marcel and soo oblivious - pure fluff - 11k
“I don’t understand,” Liam said for probably the fiftieth time in ten minutes. “You have to explain again how this is a bad thing.”
“Leeeeyummm,” Harry whined into the phone as he leaned his head onto his desk. “I felt like this year was my year for getting his attention, you know? That senior year I would finally get Logan Thompson to realize I exist! But he’s in almost every single one of my classes, Li. How am I supposed to survive that?”
“Easily,” Liam answered, with the same matter of fact tone his voice always took when Harry was in one of his fits. “He doesn’t know you exist, so it shouldn’t be a problem. Right?”
12. *gorgeous (it makes me so mad)* by resurrectdead | aaaaa Louis is such a scruff soft bad boy in this? like how he is in real life?? I’m dead??? - barista au - Clifford is the best wingdog - sexual tension - 29k
Harry’s a coffee barista with nothing really going on for him except for the occasional flirting with, some, particularly hot male customers. But when a new guy starts coming in, he suddenly doesn’t know what to make out of any single situation anymore.

The Witcher - Favorite reads masterpost
Tumblr media
Like much of Tumblr, I have recently fallen down the delicious rabbit hole of the saga of Henry Cavill’s abs in form-fitting leather, aka the tv adaptation of The Witcher. As always, that means semi-obsessive fic reading which in turn means recs! So, here’s a non-exhaustive, always evolving list of my favorite Witcher fic.
As of right now it’s...well, almost exclusively geraskier, because shipping is my primary reason for reading fics and also the Witcher (TV) tag is one of the most uniformly slashy ones I’ve ever seen, but there will be other kind of fics too. Hope you’ll enjoy :)
Tagging @nyliekeo because I’ve been saying I’d give you a rec list for a while and I’m finally (beginning to) deliver. Other stories will be added as I catch up with my reading and/or discover new ones.
Now with a Volume 2
Last updated Feb. 20th 2020.
Non Geraskier fics
Nighttime Conversations - Starfleet_Command_Unite_Bi
Specs: 731 words - Eist/Calanthe - Teen & Up Summary: Eist and Calanthe have a mostly serious conversation. Set about a year after they get married.
what changed? - TheSoliloquy 
Specs: 1939 words - Eist/Calanthe - Teen & Up Summary: Eist is a man born to belief and faith. Skelligens put stock in destiny... Perhaps they shouldn't. Or: Eist and his relationship with the Lioness of Cintra and her cubs.
Three times (and a half) - karadeniz
Specs: 4 450 words - General Audiences - Happy family dynamics Summary: The annals of Cintra are not that interesting, so Eist and Ciri push the definition of a history lesson a little.
You know The Princess Bride movie? Yeah, it's a little bit like that.
Capable - periwinklepromise
Specs: 100 words - General Audiences - Drabble Summary: Renfri is capable of many things
Between Roaches - RabidRabbit
Specs: 1 522 words - Geralt & Roach - General audiences - Sad going to hopeful Summary: Witchers live far, far longer lives than their mounts. So how does one deal with having to find another Roach when the loss of the previous one left a great gaping hole in the heart many people didn't believe Geralt had?
A Quiet Night - 2spaces_lesbo1
Specs: 1 214 words - Geralt & Ciri - General audiences - Fluff Summary: They have a still moment together.
you’ll be alright (no one can hurt you now) - hopeless_hope
Specs: 1 347 words - Teen & Up audiences - Grief/Mourning, soft dad Geralt Summary: “Hey,” he says, making sure he has her full attention. Ciri looks at him, and the amount of hope in her eyes scares him, though he’d never admit it. He pitches his voice low and soothing yet firm. “No one is going to hurt you while I’m here. And I won’t be leaving you.” She gives him a twisted smile. “They all say that,” she says bitterly, and Geralt spares himself a second to remind himself of what Ciri has lost. Her parents. Her grandparents. Her home. Geralt is all she has left. - In which Ciri has a nightmare and Geralt does his best to comfort her.
Geraskier fics
Limpid As Dammit - Gigi_Sainclair
Specs: 3 100 words - Teen & Up Summary: "The first time, Jaskier does it out of kindness, to avoid hurt feelings."
Becoming a hero - charlock221
Specs: 4 181 words - Teen & Up - Graphic depiction of violence Summary: Jaskier found that being a damsel in distress was only fun when the peril was very, very mild.Being a damsel in distress was definitely not fun when the peril was four thugs threatening him and he hadn’t spoken to his usual rescuer in several months.He just wasn’t sure he had what it took to become the hero.
The Ballad of Pots and Pans - 6th_magnitude
Specs: 1 880 words - Mature - Friends to lovers Summary: Geralt knows Jaskier is a bard - but until now, he’s never properly listened to his songs.
Astra Inclinant - JustGettingBy
Specs: 11 790 words - Explicit - AU Summary: When Jaskier is seven, he first hears the myths of the Witchers--those foul, half-human beasts.When Jaskier is twenty-one, he meets Geralt.He falls in love with him not long after.
kamilica - yogurtgun
Specs: 3 295 words - Explicit - Service Top Jaskier Summary: Jaskier rubs chamomile oil on Geralt's lovely bottom.
your very best friend, in the whole wide world - sargarepa
Specs: 5 996 words - General audiences - Soft!Geraskier - Touch-starved!Geralt Summary: Geralt of Rivia has spent a strange amount of time feverishly obsessing over the way Jaskier can just casually touch him, like it's nothing, like he's not an aberration capable of breaking Jaskier in half with a sneeze. Jaskier saw Geralt slice through monsters like pudding, covered in guts and grime and his own sweat and blood, but there he was, leaning against him and tuning his lute. Geralt doesn't know how to classify the feeling gripping him every time it happens, but he knows he doesn't want it to stop.
the world will follow after - friendlyghost
Specs: 8 827 words - Explicit - Dopplers - Scent kink Summary: The thing about dopplers is that while they know their target’s mind, they aren’t all that skilled in actually impersonating them. It’s easy to look like the baker’s wife and to know that she’s having an affair with the laundress down the road. It’s much harder to know not to kiss the laundress in front of the baker.In which a doppler impersonates Jaskier, Geralt realizes some things, and then they (Geralt and the real Jaskier) have sex. In that order.
His Touch - Sevent
Specs: 6 203 words - Mature - Touch starved! Geralt Summary: Jaskier is an affectionate man. It drives Geralt mad, but in more ways than he knows how to put into words.
Masterwork - phnelt
Specs: 1 461 words - Teen & Up - Master Bard!Jaskier Summary: “Master Jaskier, please meet your apprentice. Valdemar, do try to contain yourself.” Master Juhani looked at Jaskier’s expression and coughed. “Surely you remember the duties of a Master, Jaskier.”
let us shake the abacus - Ark
Specs: 3 062 words - Explicit - Denial (of feelings) Summary: "This is a bad idea," says Geralt."Terrible idea," Jaskier agrees. He kisses up Geralt’s neck, his tongue wicked on Geralt’s ear. "Really bad."
What Pleases You - jesstiel (jseca)
Specs: 5 725 words - Not rated - Geralt & Jaskier do go to the coast. Summary: “Well, it’s just – we were on the brink of finding a dragon.   You had Yennefer in your grasp – or perhaps you in hers, it’s difficult to tell, sometimes.  Adventure, peril, romance!  And.. you walked away.”
“You asked me to,” Geralt says, like it's that easy.
--
Now With Chapter 2: They Actually Get To The Coast.
Companionship - ArliaDevi
Specs: 4 104 words - Teen & Up - Found family Summary: In which Ciri suspects but cannot confirm.
Or, Geralt and Jaskier get domestic. Well, as domestic as they can.
it steals all my reason - theredtailedhawkwithjewelsforeyes
Specs: 1 382 words - General Audiences - Pneumonia Summary: The worst thing, Geralt thinks, is the quiet. There is no singing, just the heavy labour of breaths hard-won.
Sinister as Silence - MountainRose
Specs: 1 783 words - Teen & Up - Monster of the week Summary: Jaskier goes quiet for one second, and it's enough for Geralt to have a heart attack.
When the Morning Light Shines In - QueenForADay
Specs: 2 760 words - General Audiences - Morning After, Lazy mornings Summary: Jaskier can’t think of any point in their travels together where he has woken up before the other man. In mornings where they were surrounded by trees, or half-way up a stupid, fucking mountain because of a stupid, fucking quest posed to them by some stupid, fucking man, he’ll always wake to the sound of Geralt moving around: whether it’s rolling up his own tent, or taking his blades to a whetstone, or fixing the last of Roach’s gear. He remembers Geralt telling him about not being able to sleep. Until then, he supposed, Witchers might not have needed it. Then again, until he met Geralt, he can’t say for certain that he knew exactly what a Witcher did and didn’t need. He can’t think of any point in their travels together where he has woken up before the other man – except for now.
The Knack of Acting Normal - KeriArentikai
Specs: 4 407 words - Teen & Up - Geralt is bad at feelings, but he gets better Summary: It's been almost two years since the last time he's seen him. Jaskier looks the same to Geralt. Maybe a little older, he supposes. Happier, certainly, than when he turned away on the rocks. [Geralt is sad. Jaskier is sad. And then after a while they are both happy.]
Weak, My Love, and I Am Wanting - TabbyCat33098
Specs: 2 443 words -Teen & Up - Getting together Summary: Jaskier has written a lot of ballads about some woman who has stolen his heart. The thing is, he's been on the road with Geralt for the past month. He hasn't had any time to court a woman, much less have his heart broken by her. So who is this woman? The answer may shock you. // “There’s no lady,” Geralt says. Jaskier trails off. “Well, of course not,” he says instead. “I imagine a woman would take grave offense to the frequency with which we give our patronage to brothels, not to mention your unseemly habit of bathing in monster blood and other revolting gunk.” He wrinkles his nose. “Perhaps I should write an ode to your masterful powers of observation next.” “But you were talking about a woman tonight,” Geralt continues, ignoring Jaskier entirely.
there’s not a word yet for old friends who’ve just met - theredtailedhawkwithjewelsforeyes
Specs: 2 469 words - Teen & Up - Not really a character death Summary: “I wonder,” says Dandelion, lounging under a tree- his lute is in his lap. Geralt is cleaning his sword and stealing glances at him every few moments. “I wonder why it is some people feel so familiar. I could swear I’d never met you, Geralt, but you’re- maybe it’s just from those old songs.” He strums a chord, and when he starts on Toss a Coin Geralt grits out a “stop it” before he can even think.
Where the Field Meets the Forest - karcheri
Specs: 782 words - General Audiences - Flowers meanings Summary: Jaskier has been putting flowers into Geralt's hair. He catches on.
Speechless - Silverynight
Specs: 1 371 words - Teen & Up - Emotional repression Summary: The first time Jaskier wakes up next to Geralt he tells himself it’s an accident, even though he knows it doesn’t make any sense. Of course he’s attracted to his friend (the witcher would never admit they’re friends because he’s an idiot, but they are friends) he’s been attracted to men before, however… He’s never actually slept with one before, only women. Perhaps that’s the reason why he hasn’t said anything since he woke up. He’s still trying to think about what happened. Not that he didn’t enjoy it, quite the opposite in fact, it’s just… Jaskier thought he’d never sleep with a man.
a broken pot can still hold water - MarionetteFtHJM
Specs: 28 742 words - Explicit - Jaskier makes Geralt grovel a bit. Summary: Despite what his outward code of conduct would have you thinking, Jaskier knows when he is not wanted. He allows himself the exact amount of three days of wallowing in that small town before he packs his meager possessions and hits the road like nothing happened. In those three days he sings and dances for his food and drink, fucks the pretty barmaid and sleeps off the hangover before heading out in the morning of the fourth day. He travels alone for the first time in a while but it’s alright. Now, if only people would stop telling him that the Witcher asks about him - that'd be swell.
Surprise, Surprise - Laylabinx
Specs: 1 732 words - Mature - Graphic depiction of violence Summary: Even in the dim light, he can see that Jaskier is absolutely covered in blood. His clothes are splattered with it, his face is streaked, there’s even blood in his hair. His arms are slick and saturated up to the elbow and the sharp, polished blade Geralt had given him before he went into the cave is still gripped tightly in one fist like he can’t let it go. His knees are drawn up to his chest like he’s trying to make himself very small and aside from his quiet, hitched breathing he doesn’t move at all.Jaskier blinks at him and his expression crumples just slightly as he stifles back a sob. “I killed them.” (Or Jaskier is forced to kill in self-defense and does not handle it well. Geralt helps him pick up the pieces.)
Opulence - QueenForADay
Specs: 7 237 words - Explicit - Praise kink, some plot. Summary: In private, and sheltered from the wandering eyes of stablehands, Jaskier presses a light kiss to Geralt’s neck. “Please?” he mumbles against the skin, smirking as he trails his nose along a tendon there. “For me?” Geralt turns, catching Jaskier’s lips in a kiss that, if he wasn’t completely aware of how discreet they have to be, would become so much more. Jaskier still doesn’t move his hands though; one on the small of Geralt’s back, and the other holding on to a forearm. When he pulls away, Jaskier tries to follow, but a barked order from one of the grooms to a nearby stableboy makes him pull away. “Siren,” Geralt sighs. He would follow Jaskier anywhere. The bard knows that. He’s abused that fact. But the city they’re heading to has a reputation; draped in gold with springs of silver in the main square, it’s opulence at its finest. And Geralt is pretty sure that, although he’ll appreciate the comfy bed and the nice food, he’s going to fucking hate the rest of it.
Here’s a safe place (to lay your heart down) - Some_Dead_Guy
Specs: 1 439 words - Teen & Up - Hurt/Comfort Summary: “My mother used to do this for me, when I got headaches.” Jaskier murmurs, his voice quiet and soft, “I was a bit clumsy as a child, still am now I’m sure you’d say.” Jaskier chuckles and Geralt can feel the puff of his breath against his face, “I hit my head a lot, and this would make me feel better. Not sure how well it works on Witchers but–” “Works just fine.” Geralt mumbles, and his head splitting headache has dulled to a barely there throb under Jaskier’s fingers. Or, Geralt has a headache and his bard comes to the rescue.
I spoke your name (out loud to the room) - objectlesson
Specs: 1 151 words - Mature - Unrequited love Summary: You wish Jaskier would leave you the fuck alone, but he clings to you like ash after flames have laid waste to a village, like clotted crimson after you have killed something with your bare hands. However, you can scrub blood out from under your nails. Jaskier, so far, has proven to be far more indelible.
To Sleep Perchance To - Sospes
Specs: 16 955 - Mature - Graphic depiction of violence, torture, PTSD Summary: Jaskier gets kidnapped and tortured. Geralt comes to rescue him. Except it's not quite that simple.
Scales and Songs - TeenyTinyTony
Specs: 4 640 words - Teen & Up - Siren!Jaskier AU Summary: Geralt had known from the moment Jaskier introduced himself that the bard wasn't human, but he had seemed harmless enough and Geralt wasn't one to chase something that wasn't hurting anyone. It was easier not to mention it.
Starving on Scraps of Kindness - penguistifical
Specs: 4 388 words - Explicit - Orgasm delay/denial, not entirely human!Jaskier Summary: "It seems obvious in retrospect, but Geralt didn’t realize Jaskier’s true nature until the two of them encountered a succubus."
Benefits - ShastaFirecracker
Specs: 3 319 words - Explicit - Friends with benefits, coming untouched Summary: Whenever Jaskier's mouth isn't occupied, he talks. Low, easily, about anything. Sounds to soothe. And the thing is – unlike all the rest of the time, Jaskier is pretty sure that when he talks while he's chasing Geralt's pleasure, Geralt listens. It's a heady drug. And yes, Jaskier is becoming addicted.
Sleepsong - QueenForADay
Specs: 1 643 words - General audiences - Geralt wakes up from a nightmare, Jaskier helps. Summary: Some part of him wishes that people could see this – the man that they all fear so much, the Witcher, a hunter of the supernatural and evil, placated by his bard’s voice, melting into his arms. All he’s missing is hearing Geralt purr like a housecat. Every so often, Jaskier’s ears prick at the sound of a murmur of a hum leaving the other man, particularly when Jaskier presses a kiss to the crown of Geralt’s head, or runs his foot along the length of Geralt’s bared leg.
And at the same time, he would gladly pick up a sword and kill anyone who even thought of intruding on a moment like this.
When sorrow sang - Ailendolin
Specs: 11 184 words - Teen & Up audiences - Regret, pining Summary:  Alone, with only his trusted lute as companion, Jaskier sat in front of a pitiful fire, strumming his instrument with almost absentminded fingers. His hands were trembling, something Geralt had never seen them do before, and that was startling enough to make him pause at the edge of the clearing, just out of sight. “I’m weak, my love, and I am wanting,” Jaskier sang softly, and his voice broke with so much sorrow Geralt could feel it in his very bones. After their fight it doesn't take long for Geralt to stumble upon Jaskier again. There's only one way down the mountain, after all. What he didn't expect was to catch him in an unguarded moment - one that changes everything for both of them.
Neither one prepared - Sevent
Specs: 10 050 words - Mature - Idiots who don’t know they’re in love, semi-slow burn Summary: Between the Djinn and the Dragon Hunt, Geralt and Jaskier share many encounters on the road. A collection of coincidences, through Jaskier's eyes.
look what you made me do - cicak
Specs: 6 569 words - Explicit - Farce with porn Summary: “Like that dandy has ever bedded a woman,” the woman at the next table scoffed. “All those sexy songs of his are about that Witcher.”
The Love of a Bard - SpaceSexual
Specs: 2 103 words - Teen & Up audiences Summary: "The pen is mightier than the sword - and so it would seem, is the lute." Jaskier's a bard, a truly exceptional model of his vocation. He writes songs that bring crowds to their feet and thinks his time spent with the Witcher has let him learn a step or two of his own. However, some dances require one step forward, and a few very rapid, fear-filled, paces back.
Priorities - Penguistifical
Specs: 2 590 words - Teen & Up - Geralt cares and so does Jaskier Summary: Geralt’s getting used to a certain bard's company, but he can’t help but notice that Jaskier takes better care of his lute than of himself.
Curiosities - Luddleston
Specs: 3 109 words - Teen & Up audiences - Banter, witcher biology Summary:  "Geralt, let me ask you a question." "No." "Oh, come now. It's nothing ridiculous." Jaskier does his research, Geralt is tired of all the questions, and the questions get more and more personal along the way.
Woodash and iron and leather - LokelaniRose
Specs: 9 874 words - Explicit - Mutual admiration - Mutual pining Summary: Jaskier is the only person Geralt's ever been around who doesn't smell of fear. Russian Translation here Korean Translation here
lay (not) your heart against him - theredtailedhawkwithjewelsforeyes
Specs: 1 368 words - Teen & Up audiences - Geralt of Rivia is bad at communicating, scenting Summary: He’s a brave man but the core of it is that he trusts Geralt to save him before anything ever gets too close. It’s- Well. Geralt thinks the last time someone trusted him as far as they could throw him was when he was still a child. Before Kaer Morhen, before anything. His world is a cruel, cutthroat one. He doesn’t know what to do with this unceasing, unspoken dedication. So he doesn’t mention it. Probably Jaskier doesn’t even realize what he’s doing. 
The Ballad of the Bard and the Moon - Ravenheart
Specs: 2 605 words - Mature - It’s all about the YEARNING Summary: If the moon allowed it, Jaskier would call himself a worshipper for as long as he lived. And that, he guessed, was the problem. Because the moon could keep you company, but it couldn't worship back. It might give you direction, and you might even be blessed with its protection, but it would go its own way, whether you followed or stayed behind. Stubbornly determined to walk the night at its own pace, painting its own path. (Alternatively: Jaskier spends over 2k trying to figure out that he's in love with Geralt, and then he does something about it)
in restless dreams i walked alone (the sound of silence) - august_embers
Specs: 16 136 words - Not rated - Mental health issues, suicidal thoughts (but no actual suicide attempt), Jaskier is not okay sometimes Summary: "Geralt is able to scent the guilt on a lying man from ten feet away, to catch sight of half a pawprint in the undergrowth in the dead of night, to know when to lean back before the coming blade can cut through his throat.  Much of it comes from his training at Kaer Morhen, where his instincts were honed and enhanced, but even more comes from his travels and experiences while walking the Path.  Geralt notices things, because not noticing means death. He does not notice the lack of singing." Something is very wrong with Jaskier.
front row praises - The_Watchers_Crown
Specs: 25 098 words - Explicit - Porn with feelings Summary: The girl rolls her eyes at him. “If you’re just going to stand here ogling the witcher, maybe go and do it out of the way.” “Ogling.” Jaskier scoffs. “Who’s ogling?” She looks unimpressed. “Have you told him you want him to fuck you?”
Inspiration - CobaltCephalopod
Specs: 1 131 words - General audiences - Magic, musical instruments Summary: Between all the half-hummed melodies and scratched out words to be had over the course of decades, Geralt knows how Jaskier’s songs work and how they are made. He’s the subject of them, more often than not, and he can’t count the number of hours spent falling asleep to Jaskier’s strumming while he huddles closer to the dying fire to read what he’d scribbled so far. Or: I figured Filavandrel's lute probably has some kind of magic in it.

Somehow, improbably, Jaskier is charming him through shockingly well delivered compliments and subtle little flattering remarks.

Just a rapidly dwindling handful of dried meat, a useless hunting knife, a festering bite in his side that hurts much more than it should...and Jaskier, the surest omen that everything in his life is about completely stop making sense.

They’ve already had to mute all the colors on the TV, it never plays very loud, he’s only just gotten used to sun light of all things and he can sit on the ground because Jaskier has long ago discovered that if he’s touching Geralt he doesn’t lose his focus in another sense so much. Geralt glares at him the whole way down but he does go.

Heartlines [ calum hood ]
w.a.h series | pt.2 | word count: 3,802 | masterlist
Tumblr media
You wish you could say the separation got easier with time, but sadly, that was a lie. 
Months had passed since the last time you saw the man you love in person, and the heartache of being apart without knowing when it would end didn't ease until the day you woke up and saw the words that made you burst into tears before they'd even fully registered. 
The world was healing. Be it at a slow pace, it was still getting better by the day in it's own little ways. 
You favoured the day fast food opened again the most, sitting with your siblings in a McDonald's drive through for two hours listening to New Order and Brockhampton before finally getting a big mac you'd been craving ever since lock down began. 
But once things started opening up again, Calum found his ways to surprise you nearly instantly. First it was a bunch of flowers, then a new fluffy blanket, then something that didn't come from a store. 
Calum had always known you were a hopeless romantic, and decided to play on it in a way he knew would make you melt.
Nearly a week after your text to him and his video to you, you received a piece of snail mail covered in Australian stamps, your heart racing as the scrawl on the front of the envelope was instantly recognisable to you. 
Upon reading the letter inside, your entire body glowed with happiness and your face was soaked with tears, after all, you'd never received a love letter before. 
Once the first letter was sent, you wasted no time making your own and sending it back to him, including polaroids you knew he didn't have, and spraying the paper with your signature perfume for added effect. 
Calum was shy to admit it, but he did cry when he opened his letter and it smelt just like you. 
This continued on back and forth for weeks, until the day more than just a letter could travel between you. 
As normal, you sat with your family watching the press conference with the prime minister and director general of health in the late afternoon, as you'd become familiar with anytime there was an announcement due. 
There were rumours of a travel bubble opening up between New Zealand and Australia, but not wanting to get your hopes up, you didn't feed these rumors too much thought.
But still, you sat beside your sister with a hopeful and anxious feeling stirring in your stomach as you watched today's announcement. 
The moment the rumours were confirmed, you let out a whimper as tears clouded your vision. 
"One week from today, starting at midnight, domestic flights will resume between Australia and New Zealand." 
You waited until the end of the broadcast, excusing yourself to your room to call Calum, knowing he'd been watching the same thing being said by his own prime minister. 
What you didn't see was the look of relief on your families faces. Not only for the fact life was now closer to being normal than ever, but it was the first time they had seen you cry happy tears in the midst of what you confined in your brother, one of the hardest mental states you've ever been in. Their lives were all on hold, sure, but their lives are here, and you had made a life for yourself in a completely different country, and while you would always love your home, you had another one now that you wanted to be wrapped up in again. 
The joy they saw in you wasn't just because you were closer to seeing Calum again, it was because you were closer to your life again. Your job, your home, the friends you considered just as important as your blood family, they were all finally at your fingertips again. 
You didn't care about the fact your messy top knot was falling apart, or that the tears were still pouring down your face, all you wanted was to see him.
Shutting your door behind you, you pull up a facetime request for Calum, him answering seconds later like he was about to call you himself. 
"Baby." The pet name falls out of your mouth as you see tears clouding his eyes, his once short bleached out hair now echoing the blonde tips of his past as his natural curls come back with a vengeance. 
"Hey darlin." He says, his voice thick with emotion. 
He covered his face with one hand as he could feel his tears start to fall, an overwhelming sense of relief flooding him as he saw your bright smile and tears of joy. 
Calum had sat in shocked silence as he watched the news, not snapping back to reality until he felt his mother pulling him into a hug once the announcement sunk in, the words he heard making his knees feel weak. 
"Don't cry, my love. I'm coming home as soon as possible, okay?" You reassure him, wiping your own tears away with the sleeve of the hoodie Calum could swear used to be his. 
"I hope you know once I get you again I'm never letting go." He says quietly, your heart swelling with his words. 
Little did you know, the engagement ring he had finally asked his mother for sat just out of frame, more meaning in his words than you realised. 
"Who said I'd ever want to leave?" 
Calum just shook his head with a laugh, and from there, you both got to planning. 
As much as you loved your family, you had also been around each other every day for months, and while Calum was more keen on the time he finally got to spend with his family again after touring the world since he was a teenager, you'd had a solid twenty years with your family before you left home. With that in mind, it was decided that you would be flying to Australia, your visa allowing you to stay for a month before you would have to come back to New Zealand. 
Planning out your next steps together, you made a full two month plan, and hoped that after those two months, you'd both be flying home to LA, together. 
With one more week spent giving as much of your time as possible to your family, you finally packed your things up again, hopped in the car with your siblings, and headed to Auckland airport. 
Instead of coming to the airport, you and your parents decided to share your tearful goodbye with each other at home. 
After checking in, handing over your bags, and hugging both of your siblings til they told you that you were the most embarrassing one in the family, you finally boarded the flight to Sydney. 
Little did you know, your boyfriend was already watching the clock to see when he could acceptably start waiting at the airport. 
While you watched Avengers Endgame on your laptop to pass the time, Calum was pacing around the living room of his family home, Mali laying on the couch behind him with a pillow over her head so she didn't have to watch her brother burn a hole in the floor. 
"You already know she's gonna say yes." She says, lifting the pillow for a moment before putting it down again.
"You don't know that for sure." He mutters lowly, checking his watch again and seeing your estimated arrival time was still two hours away. 
Calum walked upstairs to his room, looking into his mirror for what felt like the millionth time today as he checked his hair and outfit for the day. 
With hairdressers opening up again a couple weeks ago, Calum had strongly thought about clipping off all his hair before you saw him again, but knowing how much you loved his grown out curls, he instead decided to get it trimmed and styled yesterday, hiding it under a beanie while facetiming you the night before. 
He once again readjusted his leather jacket, a Elvis shirt underneath with simple black pants and some converse to complete the look. While he had thought about pulling a suit out from the few he'd brought with him, he knew there was a high chance you'd tackle him, deciding comfort was a better idea instead. 
Between leaving for the airport with his family and actually arriving, Calum had tapped the inside pocket of his leather jacket more than thirty times. 
The small velvet ring box in his pocket was at the front of his mind as he sat beside Mali in the back of the car, his mum in the front passengers seat, and his dad driving them closer and closer to the most important question Calum has ever asked in his life. 
His whole family was excited to see you, and it wasn't only because they were about to welcome you into their family, but because in their eyes, you were already part of it.
Whenever Calum would be able to come home throughout the last three years, he would always hear the question "is y/n coming with you?" whenever he let his family know about his plans. It wasn't a secret that they had a soft spot for you, which meant that not only were they excited for you to be here for Calum, they were excited to see you themselves. 
After parking and walking through the airport Calum was more than familiar with, he couldn't help but notice how clammy his hands were, or the way his leg would bounce anxiously when he finally sat down in the waiting lounge outside your arrival gate. 
He was nervous. Excited, but nervous. 
You were feeling a lot of the same as you sat in the window seat seeing Sydney slowly coming into view. 
You'd spent the last twenty minutes of the flight doing some incredibly simple makeup, certain it would probably get kissed off, or cried off your face if you added too much. You only added a slight bit of green eyeshadow to match the green t-shirt you wore over a striped long-sleeved shirt, your black jeans and sneakers finishing off the look you stressed over for a solid two hours before you left for the airport. 
Feeling your heart race as you approached the airport, you tried to take a deep breath as your emotions threatened to get the better of you, but you refused to cry before you'd even seen him. 
Stepping onto Australian land, you felt an entirely different wave of excitement hit you. You weren't the kind of person who liked to stay in one place for too long a time, and spending so long back at home with your family made you feel that urge to travel again more than usual. 
You could barely contain yourself as you walked through the airport, collecting your bags quicker than expected and making your way through the area before your gate exit. 
Stopping for a moment in the hall, you take one last deep breath, nothing able to prepare you for the wave of emotions you were sure to feel. 
Calum checked his pocket one last time as he saw people starting to come from your gate, standing with his family in toe as he tried his best to see you through the crowds of people. 
The second you walk around the corner, you see him, standing there with a mix of emotions obvious on his gorgeous face you had missed so, so much. 
You cover your mouth with your hand as a sob erupts from your throat, and you walk faster towards him, a death grip on your trolley that you let go of as he finally spots you, and you see him let out a breath it looks like he's been holding for months the second his eyes land on you. 
Your trolley is lost behind you as you break out into a run, him doing the same and meeting you halfway where you crash into his arms with so much force it nearly sends both of you crashing to the floor. 
Nothing in your life had ever come close to feeling as good as having Calum's arms wrapped around you so tightly that he had lifted your feet off the ground, your legs automatically wrapping around him as you try to hold him as close as physically possible. 
Both your bodies shook as you cried, tears of joy, relief, and pure happiness all coming at once as Calum finally sets you on your feet. 
Barely pulling away, he pushes your hair away from your face, inspecting you like he was seeing you for the first time all over again. You did the same, taking in his features that no pictures or screens could ever do justice. 
With shaky hands, you grin as you carefully and gently dry his tears, taking your opportunity to rake your hands through his curls, feeling like it had been a lifetime since you'd gotten a chance to and savouring the sensation of finally having him in front of you.
Taking your face in both of his hands, he pulls your face to his, kissing you with more passion and emotion than you had ever experienced before. It felt like the usual fireworks you felt when Calum kissed you had been replaced with straight TNT, your heart beating out of your chest so hard you were convinced he could hear it. 
When you both finally pull away because of your need for breath, Calum holds you close still, peppering kisses all over your face and making you laugh so hard you feel a fresh wave of tears pour down your cheeks. 
Making you yelp in surprise, Calum picks you up again, turning and walking towards the exit a few steps. 
"Okay we can go now." He jokes, and with him turning around, you can finally see Mali and Mr. and Mrs. Hood standing a couple feet away. 
Gasping in surprise, you signal to Calum to let you down, which he hesitantly does, only to see you crash into Mali with open arms tightly wrapping around her. 
"I've missed you guys so much!!" You say, your voice thick with another wave of emotion as you bear hug Mali. 
"We've missed you too, chickie." Joy smiles, opening her arms for her own hug which you happily deliver with a kiss hello to her cheek. 
You give Malcom a hug before Mali pulls you back to her for another, making you laugh as the smiles on the family you loved so much made you feel so much better than you had been the last few weeks. 
"I'm so happy we finally have our third to outnumber the boys." Mali says, wiping a fake tear from her eye as you notice she's pulled your luggage trolly to sit beside your small group, a camera you recognised as hers sitting on top facing you all. 
"Don't worry, we haven't gotten as bad as she makes us out to be." Malcom says with a laugh as he wraps his arm around Joy's shoulders. 
"I have a feeling she's gonna be on her own team." She says, a knowing smile on her face as she looks past you to where you could sense Calum behind you. 
Turning around to follow her gaze, you feel all the air in your lungs leave your body. 
Standing in front of you, Calum's breath came in anxious bursts as he looked at you with pure adoration, a small red velvet box in one hand as he reached out to take yours, doing everything he could to remember the words he rehearsed in his head more times than he could remember. 
"Y/n," he starts shakily, "since the first day I met you by total accident, you have intrigued, confused, and amazed me over and over again. From the second we first threw around the idea of being together, you didn't ever question the miles between us we knew we would have to face, the press that would take hours, or the days I would spend locked away in my studio. Instead, you decided to love me for who I am, a lovesick idiot who eats your secret oreos and adores you more than I could ever express with words. These last few months without you have been the most challenging and unwanted thing I've ever gone through, and it's driven home the fact that if I could, I would never leave your side again."
Calum takes a deep breath, forcing down the tears that so desperately wanted to escape as he watched your tears pouring down your face, a look of shock staying with you as he spoke. 
"You're the funniest, smartest, most creative, and most beautiful woman I've ever met, and I don't know who I'd be today without you. Nothing could prepare me for the happiness you'd bring into my life by just waking me up by shifting closer to me in the middle of the night, holding my hand when the world gets too loud, or ignoring me to defeat Alduin for the millionth time." You can't help but to laugh at his words, using your sleeve to wipe away your tears as you try to stay as silent as possible. 
But your hand flies to your mouth to smother a sob as Calum gets down on one knee in front of you, looking up at you with glassy eyes as he finishes his speech.
"I adore you, I admire you, and y/n, I love you with my whole heart. I'm the luckiest man in the universe to have you, and I would take an arrow to the knee for you any day of my life. I've loved you since our first date, and if I can only be sure about one thing in this world, it's that I'm going to love you for the rest of my life, a life that I want to spend the rest of with you." 
Opening the ring box in front of him, your eyes land on the most perfect ring you've ever seen in your life. A thin band engraved with flowers held a small diamond in its circle shaped setting, the white and silver complimenting the simple style and elegance of the ring that you knew had seen a love before yours. 
"Y/n, will you marry me?" 
You finally let out the sobs you had been trying to hold in, nodding your head furiously as you pulled Calum up from the floor. 
"Yes. In every lifetime, yes." You cry, pulling his face to yours and kissing him as hard as you could, the saltiness of your tears mixing with his as you heard the people around you burst into applause. 
You hadn't even taken notice of the crowd that had formed around you once they had seen Calum get down on one knee, but they were all captured in the background of the footage Mali had been recording the whole time for you to see later. 
Calum pulled back just long enough to slide the ring he was still holding onto your shaking hand, his own not much steadier as the adrenaline and relief hit him at full force. 
"I told you so!" Mali laughs happily, coming over and wrapping her arms around the two of your, excitement and love buzzing through your small group. 
Joy and Malcom join Mali in wrapping the two of you up in hugs, and when you finally do pull away from each other, the wet patch on his chest from your tears matches the one on your shoulder from his. 
Your tears lighten, but don't disappear as your hand sits perfectly in Calum's while you all walk out to the car, you and Malcom loading your baggage into the back before you climb into the car, sandwiched between Calum and Mali, both of them holding your hands as you drive home.
Your new fiancé wastes no time wrapping you up in hugs and kisses the second the door of his bedroom closes, your bags sitting beside it after you dropped them there once you and Calum had excused yourselves. 
Before you made your way upstairs, Joy had let you know that her and Malcom would be taking you all out to dinner that night to celebrate, but that was pushed to the back of your mind as you peppered kisses along Calum's jaw. 
You weren't sure if everyone had made a consciousness effort to give you two some time alone, but with Malcom heading back into work to collect some things, Joy going to visit a friend for coffee, and Mali meeting up with some friends at a recording studio for a couple hours, you and Calum were left alone. 
Knowing this, Calum pulls your face back up to his, pressing a heated kiss to your lips as he lifts you up to lay you down on the bed, climbing on top of you and letting his hands drift under your shirt. 
Pulling back for a moment, Calum hovers above you, looking down at you like you're the most precious thing he's ever had the honour to witness. And as you looked up to him, hands each side of his face, you could swear he was the most beautiful person the universe had created. 
"I've missed you-" you kiss him "-so much." 
You're met with a gorgeous smile as he tightly wraps his arms around you where your shirt was now riding up, flipping you over so you now rested on top of him, legs tangled together and pure bliss coursing through you. 
"I've missed you too, way too fucking much." He breaths, perfectly content for the first time in months. 
"Your family already know by the way." He adds with a sly smile, and you push yourself up so you can look at him. 
"That I'm engaged to the most amazing man on earth?" You question with a raised eyebrow. 
He just grins, nodding as you rest your head against his neck. 
"I video called your parents yesterday, told them my plan. I asked if I could marry you months ago though." 
Your eyes go wide at his casual tone, like he hasn't just told you one of the sweetest things on earth. 
"Everyone knew but me." You deadpan. 
"Mhm. Sorry love." He apologises, kissing the top of your head. 
"Don't be sorry, I wouldn't have changed anything about it." 
You reach up to kiss his jaw once more, snuggling even closer to him and letting out a soft sigh, peace finally settling in you as you laid in his arms again, him squeezing you as close as he possibly could. 
"Told you I'm not letting you go again."

fluffy alphabet jordan??
Tumblr media
A= Affection( how affectionate are they? how do they show affection?)
going off of how Jordan posts about Jinjara, I wanna say, he shows his appreciation and love for you anyway he can. Whether it be with flowers, or making you breakfast, he’s very affectionate.
B= Best Friend(what would they be like as a best friend? how would the friendship start?)
You guys would probably meet on the Riverdale set. Going from Jughead’s sister, you weren’t a regular character on the how, only popping up here and there during the first season. But season two came along, and you got bumped up to a series regular, now that they started showing the Southside a little bit more. 
You guys would probably meet at the table read first, but not officially meeting until you guys start running scenes together. Over time, you both grew close. Both of you messing around with Drew and Vanessa in the trailers and both of you hanging out together in either of your trailers. He would instantly notice when something was off with you, being able to tell your mannerisms over the time you both spent together. 
He always knew when to cheer you and knew exactly what to say when you were feeling down.
C= cuddles(do they like to cuddle? how would they cuddle?)
Yes. Jordan absolutely loves to cuddle. Despite him being a fucking skyscraper, he would be the little spoon sometimes. He would lay his head on your chest and ask you to run your fingers thru his hair as he would tell you about his day.
D= domestic( do they want to settle down? how are they at cooking and cleaning)
Absolutely. Jordan knew he was gonna marry you from the day he met you. After being together for three years, he took you out on a trip and popped the question after you both got back to the hotel. 
He’s amazing at cooking. He would constantly wake you up with breakfast in bed and would surprise you with dinner after you would get home from work. Now cleaning on the other hand. He would leave his clothes everywhere; on the floor in your bedroom, in the bathroom, right next to the hamper.
E=ending (if they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)
I feel like with Jordan, he would sit you both down, and just get straight to the point. He knew for a while, you guys weren’t going as strong as when you both first started dating. With you being a regular on Riverdale and traveling a lot for the show and him not being on it so much and doing his doctor show and Looking for Alaska, you guys were barely with each other.
You both were crying at the end of the break up. You guys would say you would try later on in life, when you both had time, but for now, it just wasn’t your time to be together. 
F=Fiance(e) (how do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)
Jordan had no problem with commitment. He was fine waiting to marry you. With both of you being busy with other up coming productions, he knew you both would wanna wait until you and your friends and family all had time off to have the wedding.
G= Gentle (how gentle are they, both physically and emotionally)
For me, I feel like Jordan is always gentle. No matter what situation. It would probably take a lot to make him mad. I just don’t see Jordan really being the aggressive type of person. Unless the situation calls for it. If you know what I mean ;)
H=hugs (do they like hugs? how often do they do it? what are their hugs like?)
Ugh. Hugs with Jordan would be the best thing. He would wrap both of his arms around your shoulders as you would wrap both of yours around his waist and bury your head into his chest. He absolutely loves picking you up when he hugs you.
I= I love you (how fast do they say the ‘L’ word)
I wanna say a few months into the relationship. He would just blurt it out when you both were just sitting together. You would both be in his apartment, laying on the couch, binge watching a netflix show. He would be running his fingers thru your hair as your head was on his chest and he would be thinking about how much you mean to him and how he would do anything for you.
J= Jealousy (how jealous do they get? what do they do when they get jealous?)
They only time Jordan would get jealous if you ran into an old ex in public. Despite you constantly telling him, he was your one and only, he couldn’t help it. He would come up behind you and wrap his arms around your waist and place a kiss to your head and just stare at the guy.
K= kisses (what are their kisses like?)
His kisses are very passionate. He lets you know that he loves you with every kiss. With him being the jolly green giant, he likes to place kisses on your forehead. You usually place yours on his jaw or his neck since you can’t reach his lips without bending down
L= little ones (how are they around children)
Seeing how he is with his dog, I wanna say, he’s really good with little kids. Your nieces/nephews/cousins/siblings love Jordan. And he absolutely loves them. They run right past you and straight to Jordan when you guys go home for the holidays.
M= Morning (how mornings are spent with them)
You are not a morning person whatsoever. Early morning shoots on set are your kryptonite. Everyone knows to not talk to you until you’ve had at least two cups of coffee
Jordan was always up before you. He would always shut your alarm off before it woke you up and would instantly start making you coffee. He would wake you up by placing kisses on your shoulders and would let a smile make its way across his face as you looked around at the room in confusion
n= nights (how nights are spent with them) 
Depending on how your schedules were, you guys would sit and eat together. Then you both would shower and go lay in either your room on the couch and binge watch whatever netflix show you guys were currently watching.
o= open (when would they start revealing things about themselves)
I wanna say it would be when you guys were sitting in one of your trailers after a late night shoot. You both would be sitting there after getting takeout.
He would tell you all about growing up in Canada and how he would talk to his mom and sister for hours whenever he was missing them. He would tell you how nervous he was about playing a role like Sweet Pea and how he was really happy you both were working together.
p= patience (how easily angered are they)
Going off of gentle, I would say it takes a lot to make Jordan mad. I wanna say, he would only get mad when he felt like he did horrible at whatever scene they were filming that day. He would snap at everything and you. But he would come by your trailer later and apologize after he had cooled down.
Q= quizzes (how much would they remember about you)
He remembers everything about you. Hell, he remembered what you were wearing during the table read for season 2.
He remembered how you color coordinate your clothes in your closet and how you alphabetized your movies. He remembered you didn’t like being woken up before 11 every day, how you like a butt load of creamer with your coffee. He could always tell when you would start to panic or get overwhelmed because you would start with either play with your necklace or play with your earrings. 
He thought it was adorable how passionate you got when you guys would run lines together and get really excited when you guys would do really good in a scene together.
r= remember (what is their favorite moment in their relationship)
Probably when you both kissed for the first time. You were both running lines in your trailer and it was a scene where your character, Stevie aka Jughead’s sister, was yelling at Sweet Pea for how he treated Jughead. Jordan threw his script to the side and grabbed your face in both of his hands and just laid it on you.
s= security (how protective are they? How would they protect you?)
Jordan did everything in his power to make sure you were always safe. He even went as far as buying you pepper spray. Much like his character, people found Jordan intimidating due to his height. That was until he smiled.  He would make you text him whenever you would get to wherever you were going. He even made sure you texted him when you would get to your trailer.
t= try (how much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts. Everyday tasks)
Jordan went above and beyond for dates. He was the perfect gentleman. He would bring you flowers every few weeks, along with buying you a charm bracelet for valentines day. He would go above and beyond for anniversaries. He would buy you a new dress, take you out to a fancy dinner place, and then would just take you out for a drive. He would end the night by giving you a charm for your charm bracelet.
u= ugly (bad habit of theirs)
He would leave his clothes everywhere. Even after you would constantly remind him that his hamper was literally right there.
v= vanity (how concerned are they with their looks)
Not really. Jordan knows he’s good looking. But he doesn’t really care about his looks that much. Except when you guys would go on dates. He would be freaking out over if he looks good enough or not. Even tho Drew would constantly reassure him that he looked good. Other than that, I don’t think he would care very much.
w= (would they feel incomplete without you)
Probably after you two would either break up or be apart from each other for a while. After being with each other for so long, it would feel weird being apart for so long
x=xtra (a random headcanon for them)
One thing jordan loved doing was always scaring you. Whether it would be on set or just by yourselves.
You were standing with Vanessa and Cole, getting ready to film the scene at Southside high where Sweet Pea and Jughead first get into it. You had your back to the door with the two standing infront of you. With you having your back to the door, you didn’t see or hear Jordan and Drew coming up behind you. Jordan signaled for the two to be quite as Drew was filming him walking up behind you. 
He grabbed your waist and called out your name as you screamed Bloody murder and turned to face him, “Jesus fucking christ Jordan! I told you not to do that anymore!”
All he did was laugh and pull you into him.
y= yuck 
No idea what to write
Z=Zzz (what is a sleeping habit of theirs)
Jordan would always sleep with the fan on. Even when it was freezing outside. The first night he stayed over at your apartment and turned the fan on, you stopped what you were doing and turned to look at him like he had three heads. All he did was shrug and climbed into bed and opened his arms as he waited for you to come to bed.

Hey, babe
fandom: Stony (Steve x Tony), MCU, og6 Avengers appear
summary: Tony and Steve had been married for years and going steady, having a good thing going on. It wasn't until recent times when Tony found out that Steve had a sort of habit, Tony couldn't decide if it was annoying or heartwarming.
length: 2 169
a/n: I was rereading some of my fics and noticed that Steve calls Tony 'babe' a lot. Like a loooot. Granted, my headcanon since I started writing Stony is that Steve calls Tony 'babe' while Tony calls Steve 'baby', but I think I have overused it, especially when it comes to Steve calling Tony. So, this fic is me poking fun at my own habits, while writing some domestic fluff - hope you like it! as always, feedback, reblogs and likes are appreciated and needed!
——————–
Hey, babe
“Hey, guys! Sorry, I am late there was a line at the cash register.”
“Was there a line or did you let all the old ladies before you again?”
There was some laughter, and Natasha skillfully grabbed the bag of spicy takis Steve roughly threw in her direction. Clearly to repay for the teasing comment.
“Maybe I did,” Steve clipped, handing more bags of chips to his team, and carefully sliding a huge bag of cheese puffs under sleeping Thor’s arm, the god sprawled all over his favorite red armchair. Thor mumbled out a thank you, and huddled the bag closer to himself, almost like a pillow. “And then I helped some carry their groceries. What?” Steve defended himself with a laugh, lasting a critical look from his team. “They call me Captain, I couldn’t refuse!”
“We all call you Captain,” Clint pointed out, reaching hands for his pack of potato chips, Steve tossing it to him.
“That’s probably why he is always stuck on snack duty,” Natasha whispered to Clint. It became a sort of habit that each impromptu movie night, Steve was the one delegated to go shopping and supply his team with sweet and salty snacks, while the rest chose movies and ordered pizza or some other movie appropriate meals. It was a good system.
“Here is Bruce’s weird mix of spiced peanuts,” Steve took another bag out from the grocery bag and handed it to Natasha, who took one couch for herself and Bruce, Clint sitting on the floor and leaning over her legs, earlier gathering all pillows and blankets available and making something resembling a nest. “And this is for me and you,” Steve smiled, walking to the other couch, solely occupied by Tony, already waiting and curled in one corner and smiling at Steve. “Here you go, babe,” Steve said, handing Tony a pack of gummy bears and a large bag of cool ranch Doritos.
“Thanks,” Tony smiled, accepting the swift kiss on his forehead and even tipped his head up a bit for better access. It was a sweet thing they usually did, something that was so casual it went by without any comments, just this time, Tony heard some muffled laughter. Steve didn’t pay attention, but Tony swayed to the side, trying to locate the source, but, of course, everyone both Natasha and Clint looked perfectly innocent.
“Just gonna wash my hands and be right back,” Steve said, heading out of the living room, greeting Bruce on his way.
“Did I miss something?” Bruce asked, sitting next to Natasha and noticing that as soon as Steve left, Clint started to smile tauntingly, while Natasha had that sort of fondly irritated look on her face, and Tony sat curled in his corner all confused. Thor just kept sleeping, hugging his chips.
“Told you it will happen,” Clint pointed out cheerfully, opening his bag and stuffing a handful in his mouth, chips crunching nicely in his mouth.
“What will happen?” Tony asked, feeling alarmed when most of the people gathered in the room started to send him some looks. As if knowing something he didn’t, and Tony hated not knowing things. “Whaat?”
“Nothing, don’t worry about it,” Bruce smiled kindly, taking his bag of peanuts.
“You really don’t notice it, huh?” Natasha asked, sounding baffled. As for someone who claimed to be a genius, Tony could be somehow slow when it came to the simplest things.
“Notice what?”
Tony didn’t find out, as Steve entered the living room and Clint shushed everyone, as the whole room waited for it to happen again. Tony narrowed his eyes, not appreciating being dissed like that. Before he could complain to Steve about their teammates being a bunch of assholes, it happened again.
“Babe, scooch a little.”
And there it was again. Clint burst out a triumphant ‘HAH’, Natasha and Bruce smiled at each other in a soft way, and Tony scoffed not knowing what was happening.
“What?” Steve asked, sitting in the corner instead of Tony so his husband could lean into him. Just the way they liked.
“Nothing!” Clint repeated.
“It is just sweet how you two behave like a newly married couple even after years of marriage,” Natasha said gently.
“Yeah, sweet,” Clint chuckled, and Tony narrowed his eyes again. If it was sweet, why he felt like being mocked? “Do you even remember his name?”
And the secret was out. Tony blinked, somehow always being aware of it, but just realizing it. Practically from when they started to date, Steve barely called him by his name. It was always some sort of pet name, 'babe’ being the most common one. Tony didn’t mind. Usually, he was the one giving everyone nicknames, most of them having some mean, yet hilarious twist, but in Steve’s case it was all love and tenderness. Tony felt really good about being Steve’s 'babe’, year after year. Not that he would willingly admit to it.
“Sure I do,” Steve beamed, arraigning his hands around Tony’s waist and pulling him in closer. “It’s - ” and his voice dropped, just like Tony’s heart did when he heard the hesitation in his husband’s voice. He whipped his head around in panic, just to see that characteristic way Steve pulled his eyebrows together, faking thought or when he was joking, something Tony learned to recognize after all those years spent together. “ - it’s To-ny, right?” Steve asked slowly as if putting it all together cost him effort.
There was some laughter and the happy atmosphere was back, so the movie could finally start. Only Tony couldn’t focus, grounded in a warm embrace of his husband, his thoughts traveling elsewhere.
Mostly around the shared years with his husband, digging up memories from the past, and analyzing them.
It was time to do some research.
Tomorrow. Tony leaned his head back, Steve put his chin on top of his head, further locking them together, and Tony's eyes slid close. There was a limited number of times a person could watch 'Harry Potter’, but being in his husband's embrace never got old.
***
“Morning, babe.”
First one. Just like every morning, just seconds after Tony had stirred in his sleep, slowly wakening up, before he could even open his eyes, there was a soft voice in his ear and a kiss, sometimes on his forehead, sometimes on his cheek, sometimes on his nose. The nose kisses were extra funny and Tony’s nose always scrunched cutely and maybe it was the reason why soft morning nose kisses were one of Steve’s favorite. Not that Tony complained.
“Morning, yourself,” Tony replied, like on most of the mornings, voice still a bit hoarse from sleep. Lazily, he opened his eyes and looked at Steve’s bright blue ones. Just like the early morning sky. That was a sight that never got old. And then, Steve leaned down and they shared a proper, good morning kiss, before starting their day.
***
“Here is your coffee, babe.”
Second one.
“Thanks!” Tony beamed a smile, waiting for Steve to smooch his cheek, and after getting his kiss, he quickly sucked the hot liquid in.
“Hey, what’s your hurry? Slow down, babe!” Steve laughed, observing his husband and flipping pancakes at the same time in the pan, with a single flick of the wrist. Seemed that years of throwing a vibranium frisbee were finally paying off.
Thanks to the sip of coffee fueling his sleepy mind, Tony noticed that it happened for the third time and it was less than an hour from when they woke up. Tony slowly sipped his coffee, waiting for pancakes and wondering what would be the 'babe count’ at the end of the day.
***
“Baaabe! Did you see my sketchbook?”
“Babe, please pass the salt.”
“Babe! Feet off the table!”
Tony grunted and obediently lowered his feet and put them on the carpet, Steve smooching his head on his way out to a SHIELD meeting. Tony glanced at the watch on his wrist. It was 2 pm and it was thirty-two 'babe’ and still counting.
***
“Goodnight, babe.”
Ah, the last one.
“Babe! Don’t hog the covers!”
Okay, almost the last one. When Steve settled, Tony curled with his head resting on his husband's chest and when he felt the steady breathing and heard first rumbling snores coming out from Steve’s mouth the count was over.
Seventy-two 'babe’.
Zero Tony.
Huh.
***
Of course, Tony didn’t mind being called 'babe’ on a daily basis by Steve. It was nice and made him feel all happy inside and somehow giddy, just like during their first years of dating. Maybe it wasn’t the most creative pet name and Steve did overuse it, but Tony felt good with it. It was like a reminder of how much love Steve had for him and it was a really good feeling.
Sure, their team taunted them both from time to time about it, but Tony didn’t care. He was happy with Steve, and he knew that their team was happy for them too.
Just sometimes it was too much.
“Do you really have to call Tony that during battle?” Clint hissed at Steve, sporting a bloody cut on his cheek, while Natasha was busying over him and cleaning a cut on archer’s forearm. She didn’t say anything, just made a grunt of agreement.
Hulk. Black Widow. Thor. Hawkeye. Babe. Captain America.
All members of Avenger’s team.
Steve laughed the complaint off, which wasn’t a great idea when you have bruised ribs and grimaced in pain, while Clint went on a rant how distractive it was, and Tony listened, feeling something tight in his heart. Sometimes it did happen, that out of habit and in the midst of fighting instead of 'Iron Man’, Steve called him 'babe’.
“Babe, on your left!”
“They are coming towards you, babe!”
“Babe, I need a lift!”
Tony sighed, messaging his hurt shoulder with some arnica cream from the Iron Man to building collision he had earlier, thinking that maybe, he should find a way to lessen the frequency of Steve calling him 'babe’.
***
“Morning, babe!”
Tony grunted, rolling away and taking the covers with himself. His body still hurt from the last battle and it was way too early for that chipper mood.
“Aw, my babe is tired?”
Tony grunted again, sounding more miserable this time, agreeing.
“Okay, I will leave you alone for a bit. Don’t want you to be grumpy for the whole day.”
And a kiss. And Tony grunted again. And then he opened his eyes, hearing Steve leave their marital bed, and thinking that he found a way.
***
“Babe, come eat!”
Grunt.
“Babe, I am leaving your laundry on the bed!”
Grunt.
“I need you to sign this, babe, it is debriefing from yesterday’s fight.”
Tony grunted, leaving his scribble at the dotted line. And then allowing himself to be kissed on the jawline.
He tried to pretend that it wasn’t nice, but it was so nice, it was melting his mind.
***
It happened late evening. Tony was working on his tablet, comfortably sitting on the couch, when he heard Steve walking behind him. Time to repeat everything all over again. Tony even paused his work and puffed out his cheek, awaiting to hear familiar, happy voice and get a kiss, when the footsteps got quieter and Steve just passed by him.
Without a word.
Without even a look.
Oh.
Well, it was fine. It was something Tony had been working on for the whole day and it was finally paying off. No more irritating pet names, kisses distracting him from work. Just this familiar, a bit of cold atmosphere he had plenty of while growing up when his parents barely acknowledged him.
Great.
It was what he wanted, right?
Right.
Then why it felt so incredibly sad?
It wasn’t even a big deal. It was just some comfortable routine, Tony didn’t even notice before it was pointed out in a joke and didn’t think he would miss until he was deprived of it.
Tony didn’t like it. Somehow it became a lot darker and colder around him, some depressing feeling smothering and dark clouds gathering over his head.
“Oh! Hi, babe, didn’t see you there!”
And the sun was out again when sweet words and a quick peck fell on the top of his head. It made his heart raise, his whole body warmed up with a pleasurable tingle and it was good that he was already sitting down because his spine felt like melting -
- and Tony grunted. Like if he didn’t have any control of it. The next second he covered his face with both hands, because dammit, why are you like that, Stark, and Steve walked away with a smile, noticing that Tony’s ear tips became almost glowing red, probably just like his face, just from the pure affection Steve had towards him while Tony tried to show so hard that he didn’t enjoy it.
Luckily, after years of marriage and shared life, Steve knew his husband better.

Drunj!Der Yells About Outlander
Thoughts on Ep. 502
Watched this episode after winning Wynonna Earp trivia (fuck yeah, The Shit Tickets!) at a bar, put on by a queer af podcast, followed by going to see a queer af movie, and was all ready to get my Beauchamp fix... And it was like oh here’s a taste and a hint that we’re gonna end up in a story line similar to what we’ve already done multiple times, but now on to the menfolk.
For real though, this episode was like an OL greatest hits clip show. It had all the stuff we’ve seen before. A time traveler who wants to go home? Check. Rape PTSD? Check. A man being a dad to a kid who isn’t/might not be his? Check. That same man being the absolute worst? Check. Claire being reckless with future medicine? Check. Townsfolk questioning Claire’s medical knowledge in favor of the local Man of Importance? Check. Jamie trying to be on both sides at once? Check. A villain who seemed to have died the previous season and should have fucking stayed dead? Check.
We’ve literally seen all of this stuff before.
For a show that spent the first part of season two claiming to be a political drama and then last season claiming that they “weren’t political” I see we’re back to just leaning hard into politics that have direct parallels today.
No fucks left to give about the system Murtz is kind of my favorite Murtz. Like this dude spent his whole life living by a code and an oath and was fucked over by the system so many fucking times that he’s ready to just burn it all down. Curious to see how they walk the domestic terrorist vs. freedom fighter line with him for the rest of the season.
Got all excited about the bread title card because yay medicinal mold, but of course, the lead character was relegated to the B story.
Old timey medicine baffles me. Like the fact that bleeding someone was like a catchall remedy boggles the mind.
I feel rull bad for Mrs. Whoeverthefuck though. She tried.
Also, shit like this makes me be like, yo Claire, you sure you wanna stay here? Jamie’s really not all that and a bag of chips. But you do you, boo.
Speaking of Jamie, his hair looks really good. A thousand fruit baskets to the new wig person.
Lulz at Knox thinking the Gathering was about being loyal to king and country. Dummy.
Srsly though, Murtz Valmurtz is really getting under their skin. Is he like the *only* Regulator leader?
The convo between Knox and Jamie is literally as relevant today as it is in the 1770s. But yeah, the show IsN’t PoLiTiCaL.
The fact that fuckers think those at the bottom should be happy with their lot because “lol it could be worse” need to be punched in the face and taken out of power. Stat.
Also any time someone in power talks about civility as a reason not to rise up against injustice, I want to punch them. Because they deserve it.
I want to punch a lot of things.
This whole episode is very Les Mis, tbh.
Literalol at Claire covering dead guy’s face and not his body cavity before Bree comes in.
Aw Bree, why you gotta be a buzzkill? We were cheated of badass Doctor!Claire in S3. Let us have this.
Also, yeah, Claire, Bree’s fucking right. Which you’d think you’d know by now what with alL THE FUCKING TIMES YOU’VE BEEN CALLED A WITCH. AND NOW YOU’RE UPPING YOUR GAME TO LIKE NECROMANCY?!
Also the more she says no one will find out the more annoying it is because *clearly* someone *is* gonna find out and we’re gonna be back on the “she’s a witch!” “I’m not a witch!” “you literally have a dead guy in your closet!” merry-go-round again.
Today in most on-the-nose shots ever: How convenient that Marsali just happens to be doing some butchering right there, right then.
Petition for the show to go full Shondaland and just turn into a backwoods medical drama with Claire and Marsali, and all the others (cough the men cough) can fuck on off.
Tarring and feathering is like the old timey version of #AlwaysPunchAFascist but dialed to 11.
Oh the baggage behind Jamie saying redcoat man will someday wear his scars with honor that none of these fuckers know about...
Ok so clearly the English know that Claire’s a doctor so whenever shit hits the witchy dead dude fan, can we please have a quick resolution and not that dumb af “Claire goes to jail and of course her cellmate is a lesbian because Diana sucks at writing queer characters” nonsense?
Man Jamie is *not* subtle with this convo at the jail. Like Knox is right there and he’s just like hey buddies, I have people and we’re Scottish and y’know how we feel about protecting people vs. obeying the English.
I AM SPARTACUS FITZGIBBONS!
Aaand, naturally, the fuckwit preaching civility is the one to kill a man in cold blood. Rise up, motherfuckers. Rise up.
THANK FUCK ROGER IS A TERRIBLE SHOT BECAUSE IF THAT SQUIRREL DIED I WOULD LEGIT QUIT THE SHOW. RUN AWAY AND BE FREEEEEE YOU PRECIOUS LIL WILDERNESS FLOOFER!
Roger is, and I cannot stress this enough, the fucking worst.
He’s like look how shitty I am at being a soldier but then bitches about having to try to learn. And then he bitches about how dumb it is to shoot at squirrels as if being able to hit a squirrel wouldn’t make hitting a much larger thing, like a man who is shooting back at you, that much easier. And also, how the fuck does he think they get meat to eat? Shooting it, you twatwaffle.
And he’s like so fucking butthurt about being left behind. Like no shit, asshat. You’re bad at being in the past and have made no real effort and you whine a lot and are generally the worst. Of *course* you were left behind. Stop being emo about it and maybe actually try.
“He doesn’t respect me, Bree.” Yeah, no shit. Because you’ve done LITERALLY NOTHING to earn his respect. WHY ARE YOU SO TERRIBLE IT’S LIKE THEY’RE INTENTIONALLY TRYING TO MAKE HIM SUCK.
He also is like butthurt that his wife is a better shot than him when she gets the turkey he misses. How the fuck are we supposed to ship this. Ugh.
#BreeDeservesBetter
Oh Bree, sweetie, Jem won’t get hit by a car, but there are like eleventy million ways to die in the past. Just stick with the “you want to stay with your family” stuff.
Roger clearly doesn’t want to stay and is gonna pull a Fred and make Bree feel bad about wanting to all season, isn’t he. Fahkin’ doucherocket.
“I want to go but I’ll stay for you and look how magnanimous I am as I whine about it and make no effort to acclimate to the time.” Take your martyr card and shove it, Rog.
Shorter Jamie Fraser: “If you stand for nothing, Knox, what’ll you fall for?”
I’m already over Roger singing all the time tbh. Mostly because it reminds me that soon he won’t be able to do that anymore and we’re gonna be subjected to like half a season of him being more insufferable than he already is.
Wait, was Joan already born last episode? Or was there another time jump? Is Marsali preggers with baby #3? I lost track.
I love this scene between Claire and Marsali with my whole heart. Marsali especially.
CAN WE PLEASE JUST HAVE A WHOLE SHOW OF THESE TWO BEING ALL BADASS AND DOCTORY TOGETHER!?
Although, quick question, how fucking long is Claire planning to keep that un-embalmed body lying around in an un-refrigerated surgery/root cellar? Just curious...
Because you know someone’s gonna find it eventually and that’s gonna be a whole to do and I really need to stop being preemptively annoyed at plot lines that haven’t actually happened yet.
And with all this talk of plowshares and swords, I really am going to be singing Les Mis for days...
How long have these biddies been living on the Ridge? The fucking Leoch folks spent like a minute with Claire before they were like yep, she knows what’s up. These folks have apparently been here for months and are like loool, pass. They live in the fucking woods. You’d think they’d be more open to Claire’s brand of medicine.
Omg are they like the accidental antivaxxers of the Ridge?
#VaccinateYourFuckingKids
I mean, Bree, I think there’s some difference between Claire pretending to be a dude doc and telling folks to wash their hands and Otter Tooth.
Season 2 Claire and Otter Tooth on the other hand...
Ok so Jamie needs more men so that means next week is AHS: Beardsley Farm and then maybe (hopefully) instead of being like lol jk you can all go home, it actually goes right into the battle thing. Still not sure if they’re gonna do Roger getting hanged as the mid-season big thingy and then do the Bonnet nonsense in the back half or keep trying to do both of those at once.
Hey, Roger, pro-tip, next time you see Morag MacKenzie, maybe don’t fuCKING MAKE OUT WITH HER YOU FUCKING DUMBASS.
Claire’s totally right about how they should go back. Honestly, they should. But instead of talking with her like Claire is now with Roger, he’s just being all moody about how he’s bad at the past and wants to go back. You’re shooting yourself in the foot, broski.
Oh hey Husband the Quaker. And is that a fellow Quaker named Hunter with him? Are we gonna get Denny and Rachel this season?! Please and thank you that’d be great, I love them.
Murtz talking to his squad is full on Enjolras being like don’t worry fam, Marius will stand and fight with us. His place is there, he’ll fight with you.
The two very different but very similar ways Murtz and Jamie approach being Laird of their squads is fun to explore.
Bree lecturing Claire about changing the future by saving a few backwater hicks like Claire didn’t spend years trying to fucking change all of Scottish history is a bit rich. Like writers, we get it, you’re trying to be like oh snap, wait for the consequences of this bread!science! But like come the fuck on. We sat through all of season two.
“You’re a good dad, you know that?” Oh man, I’m getting that déjà vu about a shitty man getting kudos for being a good dad to a kid as if that negates all of his shittiness.
Oh hey, Bonnet’s back. Clearly we couldn’t have just let him die last season. Gotta drag shit on for longer than it has to. This is the [Outlander] Way.
If they were gonna keep him around as a villain, they shouldn’t have (in addition to all the other reasons) included him raping Bree. Jamie, Murtagh and Bonnet all making choices within and outside of the law to various degrees in order to make their living in the Colonies would be a really interesting contrast. But nope, gotta just go all in. BeCaUsE tHe BoOk.
Also I hate with the passion of a thousand fiery suns the Jemmy’s paternity stuff. Le sigh.
Remember in season one when the show was about Claire and she was in episodes for longer than 10 minutes?
I miss Claire.

uhm sis (or bro or whatever u prefer i just call everyone sis) pls reblog more fics like i need some good ones and pieces was hella good
Ahhh i’m really glad you like Pieces!!! It deserves more love for sure and the feels are only going to get better I can promise you that hoho \o/ (and I’m good with both sis/bro, I don’t mind either or it’s cool)
So far I’ve been blindly going through the AO3 tags for jojo fics so I’m not sure if my fic recs would entirely appeal to you … but if you’re interested you could definitely take a look at some of these faves! (Do mind the fics’ tags if you’re sensitive to certain tropes) Most of these are going to be heavily skewed towards part 4 and 7 (absolutely no one is surprised), but there’s other parts under the cut too!
Part 2
see you again by efthemia (6k oneshot with background Part 7 ship) - A Caejose reincarnation fic! This is set in a modern day au where Joseph and Caesar meet in another life … by crashing vehicles into each other lol
Can You Ever Go Home Again? by alexclusive (4k oneshot, contains Part 4 spoilers but is mostly centred around Part 2 and 3 characters) - I don’t want to spoil too much for this fic so I’m just going to copy paste the fic’s original summary here: “A few months after his adventure in Morioh, Jotaro goes on another personal errand at the request of his grandfather, and ends up discovering yet another lingering ghost.” A lowkey fix-it with feels!
Part 3
Torture Me by Xyloto (nsfw 2k oneshot) - The SDC gang walks in on jotakak inappropriately using their stands lmaooo enough said
Young Flame by greenteafiend (nsfw 7k multichaptered) - More Jotakak! Takes place during the Devil-Yellow Temperance part of SDC where Jotaro and Kak share that hotel room in Singapore lol
Kiss With A Fist by nevermordor (nsfw 6k oneshot) - Tempers and egos flare between Jotaro and Kakyoin as they make the long tenuous journey to Egypt – Fistfights inevitably happen. I really like how much of a cold hardass bastard Kakyoin gets in this lol
time after time by dimolto (11k oneshot) - TIME LOOP TIME LOOP TIME LOOP!!!! God time loops are one of my favourite tropes of all time, I don’t think I could get sick of it. SDC canon compliant (kinda) – Jotaro is the only person that’s aware of the loop and has to work his way out of it somehow. It’s jotakak too!! Highly rec this fic
Part 4
No place where we can’t go by tjesje (4k oneshot) - Josuyasu! Two dudes slowly fall in love over the course of their summer break. OP really nails the friendship between Josuke and Okuyasu – the banter flows so easily you can’t help but get caught up in how close and in sync they are with each other. Also, the summer vibes are super strong in this fic! Always a big plus with duwang content lmao
electric word life by Fluffifullness (8k oneshot) - More Josuyasu mutual pining + confessions, suuuuper sappy and sweet with some light post DiU angst.
Just Let Me Know, How Do You Feel? by hushroom (6k multichaptered) - Post DiU – Set during their college years, Okuyasu meets up with Josuke for the first time in a while, and they work towards overcoming emotional distance caused by the strain of long distance relationships and misunderstandings. Aged up Josuyasu content is always such a treat and this one doesn’t let down!
Bosozoku Boys by VulpesVulpes (nsfw 4k oneshot) - Takes place a few years after DiU. One night during a sleepover Josuke accidentally stumbles upon a porn mag under Oku’s bed – midnight confessions and feels ensue. This fic always has a soft spot in my heart just because of how vulnerable Josuke gets, argh my heart it aches
Crashing Waves by chamomilekai (7k multichaptered) - Post DiU – Josuke and Okuyasu deal with the lingering effects from the final Kira fight. It’s a slow burn romance with heavy feels where both bros find comfort and support in each other, very delicious part 4 h/c sob x10000
Part 5
the passenger by havisham (nsfw 5k oneshot, contains Part 6 endgame spoilers) - A Brugio fix-it …. of sorts. Ten years after Vento Aureo ends, mob boss Giorno somehow finds himself sent back in time with the opportunity to save Bruno and the others. I really like how desperate and jaded Giorno is in trying to save everyone, and how despite everything things still don’t go entirely the way he wants them to …
DIOmestic by writers_haven (4k oneshot) - Yep, it’s modern au mudad lmao. Some JonaDio here and there but the focus is mostly on Dio+Gio father-son fluff. It’s stupidly cute and there are little nods to canon material that I love to bits, like Hamon being reimagined as a fancy form of new age yoga ahahaha
Part 7
Riches and Wonders by etymology playground (8k oneshot) - A lighthearted gyjo fic that takes place during canon events – Two weeks after Sugar Mountain, Johnny and Gyro spend some R&R at a stand-powered onsen lmao. This was one of the first few fics I read right after finishing part 7, and it really helped to soothe the post SBR pain … not that I’m completely over it yet but then again would anyone ever be lol
Laundry by Petronia (2k oneshot) - Another lighthearted canon gyjo fic with lowkey ust lol – Johnny and Gyro take time between travels to do laundry. Idk, there’s something about gyjo domestic downtime that’s so comforting sob
i’ll see your face again by queenieofaces (2k oneshot, Part 7 endgame spoilers) - Oh boy this one … It’s a reincarnation au where Gyro experiences deja vu and misplaced memories from Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency during the events of SBR. 10/10 lots of feels bc reincarnation aus pair so incredibly well with gyjo gosh
nowhere to go; I’m already inside by librisdedita (31k multichaptered, major Part 7 spoilers all around) - A canon compliant gyjo fic – Johnny’s perspective on life is especially bleak in this one. OP tore my heart asunder by the end of this fic but oh man I wouldn’t have it any other way lmao
Cowboys Ain’t Easy To Love by jotarosgirl17 (36k multichaptered, Part 7 spoilers) - A series of interconnected slowburn gyjo canon compliant fics, suuuper heavy on angst and period-typical homophobia and internalised homophobia. Very good for a cry … or ten lmao
see you when the sun sets east by mourn (nsfw 2k oneshot) - Two cowboys sit five feet apart from each other not talking about their repressed feelings yeehaw. Jokes aside this is a quick but intimately tender glimpse into the beginning of Johnny and Gyro’s relationship
Spin This! by polyphenols (17k multichaptered) - A modern day office au where Diego works at a new tech startup named Steel Ball Run. Honestly, I don’t think I could ever properly articulate how much I love this fic – It’s full of sooo many nods and easter eggs to all the bizarre eccentricities that happen in part 7′s canon, and I think nearly every major/minor character gets featured one way or another, if not all (everyone works in the same horrifyingly open air office space after all). The witty banter and dialogue between characters are so snappy and succinct you can’t help but smile or laugh while reading along. Diego in particular stars as the long suffering Straight Man and audience surrogate into the madness that is SBR, with a lowkey crush on HP that slowly builds as the fic progresses (there’s background gyjo too!). While there’s more of a central focus on Part 7 at first, characters from other parts also make an appearance and gradually become more involved as well. I can’t rec this fic enough!!!
Diamond Ball Run by polyphenols (15k multichaptered, Part 7 endgame spoilers) - A gyjo fix-it of sorts … Johnny takes up Funny Valentine’s offer and asks for an Alternate Universe Gyro. The fic is mostly told from Alt Gyro’s perspective in the later half, and argh this makes my heart ache in so many ways I didn’t know were possible god help me –
happy new year, johnny by 3kanite (7k oneshot, Part 7 endgame spoilers) - Aaaah I just read this one today lmao – The fic is written from Johnny’s POV over the course of several new year celebrations – pre-race and during SBR canon. It really nails Johnny’s characterisations and personality shifts down nicely and makes the last year spent with Gyro that much more bittersweet and heartbreaking oh why won’t these part 7 feels stop coming for me
desperado by 3kanite (35k multichaptered) - Features missing scenes that take place during the events of SBR – Admittedly I’ve only read the first two chapters so far and haven’t fully processed things yet but I’m already so caught up in these pre-slash gyjo feels that I can’t help but rec this one catch me crying behind Owson’s @ 3am bc it’s just that good urgh I need an adult Could possibly be nsfw but I haven’t gotten that far in yet obvs
Aaaand that’s about it for now! Hopefully some of these interested you haha. Go show these wonderful OPs some love because they deserve it!!!

1. Would you rather accessorize with scarves or necklaces?
Scarves,  cause I like soft stuff to snuggle and hide my face in.
2. How old were you when you first saw mountains? (Or if you haven’t seen mountains, what do you imagine they’re like?)
Smokey Mountains on a road trip... erm.. in my mid teens I guess...
3. Do you make your bed in the morning?
It a habit I recently started when we first went on lock down to help me get my day started... prior to that.. hell no as I would just be crawling back into them later.
4. What type of stories did you like as a child?
Book wise when I was little.. anything my Dad would read to me at bedtime...As a teenager it was Sci-fi, fantasy and romance and hopefully all in the same book. 
5. What was the most exhilarating experience of your life?
Hmm ...no idea so will pick some at experience at random... sailing through a sun shower in St. Thomas on one of our honeymoon excursions to see sea turtles in their natural habitat. ...
Snorkeling for the first time in the ocean..
Skiing down a winter slope when I was a kid and somehow not managing to kill myself (I suck at skiing) 
First day we brought my daughter home from the hospital.. feels surreal as I sit here to think the 5 year old softly snoring beside me was once sooooo small and it was ONLY 5 SHORT YEARS AGO.  Dude, when they say the little years go by fast.. they weren’t kidding..
Oh.. and of course walking down the isle and somehow not tripping over my feet and face planting in front of my family and friends as I was shaking like a leaf caught in a hurricane having a mild panic attack and worried I was going to fuck up somehow.
Okay, so the last one was more terrified than exhilarating but.. meh...
6. Do you agree with the concept of exotic pets?
Here in North America... if the thing was born in the wild.. it should stay in the wild...unless under the extreme circumstances of animal rescue when the animal can’t be returned to the wild..   If it was breed in captivity and is not on the endangered species list and wont eat you or rip your face off...say like a hedge hog which is oddly enough considered exotic where I am.. then its okay but only if the owner can provide a loving, healthy home.  (wolf hybrids,  tigers, ligers, and other exotic large cats are the exceptions as no one can care for them properly unless specialized training has taken place and you have like a billion acres of land for them...basically any animal that has not been domesticate over hundreds of years ... leave em alone... )
7. Describe your feelings about maths.
Necessary evil...enough said. 
8. When was the last time you finished a book?
Do audio books count? If so.. in March right before lock down.  Listened to a lot of books on my travels to and from work..   Currently I am able to actually pick up a hard copy and I am working my way through Crazy, Rich Asians.   Good book!
9. What’s a small way that you’ve been kind recently?
All the things I have done recently have just been what is expected of a normal human being with responsibilities so I cant really say.. erm.. made an extra meat loaf for my Dad so I know he is eating well... collected his beer bottles for return cause they just started excepting them again.. 
Started making my husband lunch as he was recalled to work... Do his laundry cause he usually does it for himself...
I haven’t really be out much in the world lately and as I said.. basic stuff. 
10. What new hobby/activity have you always wanted to try?
And got to the bottom and I think I fucked this up... oh well.. lmao.. so on to the questions I was supposed to answer...ooopppsss..  gonna leave the other answers above cause I spent the time to write em.. 
Oooh, and now I have to ask questions…
1. If you could go anywhere, where would you go?  
Falling Lakes aka  Plitvice Lakes National Park  in Croatia cause it looks beautiful and would be the closest thing on Earth to being in a fantasy novel..  
2. Favourite pasta shape?  
No favourite shape.. just spoon sized cause spaghetti is messy
3.What do you need to do everyday to keep your mind and body working well?
Wake up... lmao
4. First ever fandom and why? How old were you?
This is a surprisingly hard question to answer as I have loved many things over the years.. I have always loved cartoons going back as far back as I can remember and later in life comic books and anime  so will answer this by first fanfictions  and first community.... 
Well.. first fanfiction i got hooked on reading was for Sailor Moon..age..erm... high school so like maybe grade 9ish..  At that point I had always loved cartoons but Sailor Moon really sucked me in. 
First I wrote and will never see the light of day... Biker Mice From Mars and/or G.I.Joe...cant rightly remember which came first and I am a huge Snake Eyes fan.  
First posted... DBZ I believe under another name.. and ermm.. no, I wont tell. 
First community I joined... Dragon Ball Z on here in fact.. and within the last few years.   I am still a DBZ fan but I jumped the fandom community wagon and joined up with a bunch of Thundernerds and completely fell down the rabbit hole.
And I am being vague about the age for a reason.. lol   
5.Deserted beach or snazzy night club?
Beach! 100% Sand between the toes,  the sound of the water lapping up the shore.. the smell of the salt in the air.. the sun on my back and my sandals dangling from my finger tips.. ahhhh perfection. 
6. Do you find it easier to talk to people online or offline?
Online.. cause there is security in anonymity. 
7. What do you think is the aim in your life? What do you ultimately want to achieve?
Wow.. talk about a soul baring question.. lmao.. I don’t know.. to be remembered and looked back on kindly.   To be better then those before me and to not make the same mistakes.. to be a good mom to my daughter and to not fuck her up to bad. (I answered this one out of order.. meh)   
8. Coolest Thunderbird
....well this one should be an obvious answer. lol
9. What is your absolute favourite topic to talk about?
My interests.. which are vast and varied. 
10. Do you have an embarrassing story to share?
How I fucked up this questionnaire.. lol 
okay so now for questions to ask,..if I understand this right that is what i am supposed to do now... hmm
1. Favourite dessert.
2. What would you rather...fine dining or eating around a camp fire?
3.  Favourite past time outside of here?
4. If you were a video game character, who would you be? Why?
5. Flight or invisibility? 
6. In the case of a zombie apocalypse what would be your escape plan and what would you do to survive? 
7. If you could go on a road trip anywhere in the world.. where would you go and what car would you be driving? 
8. Who would be in the seat beside you? 
9.  What would you rather... watch a thunderstorm or close the blinds
10. What 10 questions would you come up with if you could ask anyone anything?  (Ya, I so cheated there mu ha ha a ha) 
Feel free to answer.. or not. Open to anybody just copy and paste the last 10 questions.. not the whole thing like I did... oops... cause that would be wrong.. Oh and if you made it all the way down here after this long ass ramble .. GOLD STAR FOR YOU!  :)
