Hello! Today I went with some Zoro, because he's my favorite. He's a bitch to draw, it's so hard. I'm used to writing his pov, and find that pretty easy. But drawing him is hard. I don't know how people do it.
Under the cut are some different versions as always, since I can't decide on anything lol.
You know what's the thing that almost made me want to throw my laptop? Doing the triangle in the demi flag. But I'm happy with the result.
As always, I don't know how to draw hair and face, but who cares!
Is it obvious that I have a thing for Zoro covered in blood? Probably. Do I care? Not really.
Close up of Zoro's boobies and chest hehe (since I hate how the face turned out).
#my art stuff#roronoa zoro#zoro#one piece zoro#op zoro#zoro one piece#zoro op#trans zoro#gay zoro#demi zoro#one piece headcanons#I guess(?)#he likes strong men as in he likes sanji#but I won't be tagging zosan#or zolaw for that matter#I see him with both of them (I prefer zosan but love zolaw very much)#but since they're not here I won't tag the ships#also don't mind my awful writing#I guess that's it#nooo I just realized I forgot to do the upper part of the demi flag whiiiiteeee#I was so stressed after the triangle that I forgot#fuck#I hope my demi homies won't hate me for this#I'm so fucking dumb#fucking adhd and hyperfixations

23. 10. 2024
okay so i know i forgot to post for a few days 😭 so here's what happened:
19/10: saturday
first dissection!! AND I VOLUNTEERED AT OUR TABLE AND DID IT!!
20/10: sunday
...somehow i wasted the entire day
21/10: monday
more dissection. more wasting of time
22/10: tuesday
i TRIED to study, okay? but well...
23/10: wednesday
✓ woke up at 5 am
✓ read and made notes on erythropoiesis
✓ read a bit about the femoral triangle
? morning lectures were about stress management and interpersonal relationships? idk i read @athenaareia 's fanfic during it
✓ had a sdl class about erythropoiesis but they finished the q/a before they reached my roll no, :(
✓ more dissection!!! saw the femoral nerve, artery and vein and the profunda femoris artery. accidentally cut a vein and tendon (?) though that was my DT mate's fault, not mine
? came back to the hostel, couldn't study/do ANYTHING in the evening because of hostel stuff and also seniors dealing *ahem* ragging *ahem* with us
! one of the girls on my floor kept yapping for SO LONG and i, as usual, was to awkward to tell her to go so... yeah. yapped and vibe matched with her for 2 entire hours.
✓ finally found the time to read about the hip bone (a bit?)
✓ drew the anterior view and lateral view of the hip bone
? im wayyy too sleepy rn.
honestly, I can't help but feel that in doing NOTHING here. everything is going too fast and I don't understand half the stuff taught in anatomy classes. i adore biochem atp.
also there's a lizard above me. im scared to sleep.
but I am sleepy. i slept through the physio equipment demonstration and people NOTICED like they asked me after class if I was alright so... yeah.
this is despite the fact that I slept 8 entire hours yesterday
so what I've come to realise is that regardless of how many hours I sleep, I'm still gonna be sleeping during lectures
solution? imma wake up at 4/5 am and study. yoohoo. (it's about 1 am rn fyi)

Do you have any really silly mane six headcanons
Twilight Sparkle once smoked weed during her equivalent of college and to this day is terrified that Celestia will find out (Celestia already knows)
Twilight has very little knowledge of memes and her friends frequently have to explain new slang to her before she causes political scandals (“no Twilight ‘kys’ does not mean ‘keep yourself safe’”)
Much like a real horse, Twilight often falls asleep standing up during her late-night stress & study sessions. Spike has had to wake her up and tell her to go to bed numerous times
Twilight was that kid who reminded her teachers there was homework when they forgot. Her classmates didn’t really like her for that
Her love life is very…active lol, including when she’s in a stable and committed relationship (like active within that relationship not as a serial cheater). She loves learning new techniques if you catch my drift
Fluttershy is surprisingly confident when she’s attracted to someone, and when she’s in a committed relationship she has a lot of fun facts about animal mating patterns to share with them for…no particular reason
Unlike Twilight, Flutters is surprisingly well-versed in memes because she’s learned a lot from Discord (and also Treehugger). She doesn’t really understand the humor in all of them but she’s aware of them
(In a universe where FlutterCord is canon) She had to absolutely fight for her life in the Mane 6 meetups when she told her friends she was dating/crushing on him
Daring Do eventually loses popularity, partly because so many of her books involve actual artifact theft and social attitudes have changed, and partly because ponies just moved on to newer book series. Rainbow Dash still remains her biggest die-hard fan even when she looks pathetic doing so
Rainbow Dash acts like a big baby every time Tank hibernates for the rest of her life (he outlives her) but after the first few years it’s kind of silly
This isn’t an idea I came up with but I really like all the jokes about RD writing really bad fanfiction, and it’s a headcanon I subscribe to
(Mostly a joke because I do ship her with mares outside of my next gens) Rainbow Dash is straight but has a lot of mares asking her out because of her mane, and it’s hard to get stallions because they also think she’s gay. She also has a hard time relating to her friends who all like mares
RD doesn’t take good care of her hooves because she flies all the time and forgets to trim them due to not walking very much. Because of this, they look funky and overgrown and her friends kind of clown on her for it
When she’s older, Rainbow Dash wrecks some of her joints trying to do stunts that she did when she was younger (like carrying her “little” sister). She has the worst midlife crisis out of all her friends
When Rarity was a filly, she used to create the most elaborate and dramatic plotlines with her dolls that easily measured up to any soap opera, with betrayals, love triangles, custody battles, the whole works
She enjoys listening to soul-crushingly sad music (like Marina’s discography) during her ice cream-crying sessions, in the process roleplaying a life much more dysfunctional than she has because it helps her cope with her actual problems. Also listens to that music in a good mood if she needs to be inspired for a certain fashion piece
She overstocks her supplies to a sometimes comical extent, like she has 400 refills for her bedazzler machine. How does she have room for all that stuff? A lady never reveals her secrets, darling✨
Applejack loves singing country songs like “Thank God I’m A Country Colt” and “International Harvester” at the top of her lungs, they literally never fail to get her hyped up
(In a human context, ignoring Equestria Girls) it took her awhile to learn that Apple Bloom had TikTok and other social media accounts because she only uses Facebook on her clunky home computer
AJ is incapable of enjoying any kind of sitcom because she’s always poking holes in the plot. Her least favorite storylines are the “caught in a lie” and general miscommunication tropes
She also can’t watch well-written, dramatic tv shows either if any of the characters behave dishonestly (such as Breaking Bad)
Pinkie and Cheese once performed “Amish Paradise” for her parents and sisters (even in universes where they aren’t a couple). Reactions were VERY mixed
Also some of my “how they explain the birds and the bees to their kids” headcanons for my next gens are pretty funny
Fluttershy is really good at explaining the whole life cycle (including reproduction and death) because taking care of so many animals means she’s seen it all. Nothing squicks her out anymore. She explains things matter-of-factly but gently as she guides her little ones through various examples involving her animals.
Twilight would do a good job and be comfortable with it but she would also go overboard, giving a college-level lecture about the full reproductive process when her 10 year old daughter only wanted to know what going into heat meant. Twi’s partner calls Fluttershy in to help for the kid’s sake.
Rarity buys her daughter the pony equivalent of those Care & Keeping of You books (and her son gets the male equivalent of those books). She uses those books to bond with her kids over “becoming a mare/stallion.”
Applejack is very overprotective of Apple Bloom and probably procrastinated on giving her “the talk” only to find out that AB already learned from the other CMC (especially Scoot “left completely unsupervised 24/7” aloo /hj). A similar deal would probably happen with her own kids as well unless her partner is better about it. Even though, years before, Granny Smith was very straight with AJ like “ya wanna know how our new batch of chicks was made?”
Pinkie isn’t uncomfortable with the talk at all, except her explanation gets so convoluted and off topic that her kids go off to ask someone else.
Rainbow Dash says “go ask your father”

https://www.tumblr.com/olderthannetfic/718173342545412096/i-changed-my-mind-while-writing-my-very-long-fic Hi I'm this anon and I forgot to say that I don't like my fandom anymore and the friends I made there all moved on and I will leave it after the fic is done and orphan it and go live as a hermit because fandoms aren't fun anymore which is why I don't really care about undeniably being the asshole here. They tried to stalk and harass me so I don't feel that bad about doing this when the fic has always been posted anonymous and I don't care if this follows me to my other well hidden socials should it be linked to me. I want to finish the fic because my ND gives me stress when I don't finish things fully and giving up would feel like cutting off my leg, so starting a new fic isn't an option for me and idc enough about the first ship anymore to finish it at all. The fic was a will they won't they with a love triangle for the first part where the love interest likes both and it might suck if I go from the NB main as choice to the fem side chara but that's fine by me because I lost attachment to the show. Is this what people say is trolling? I don't know but I just stopped caring about these people and charas and I'm kinda curious to see what will happen now if I just follow my heart. I sent this to gauge what might be the reaction before it happens, not that I'll ever read the comments after finishing the fic
--
Dude, you already know what the reaction will be.
No one cares about all these details.

the summer i turned pretty except its w/ 8 ft tall blue aliens
the summer i turned pretty except it’s a love triangle between the reader, neteyam, & lo’ak....like can you just imagine reader who is from a different clan, but somehow manages to visit the omaticaya clan every year for a short period of time, who is childhood/family friends with the sully boys and family. she visits one year (after maturing beautifully) and shes so excited to finally visit again !!! but suddenly nete (conrad) is just a brooding asshole (idk probably cause jake is stressing him tf out with duties) and lo’ak (jeremiah) is just his normal, playful self and they are both in love w/ reader ??? maybe there’s a huge festival coming up and all eligible women are encourage to participate in some traditional coming of age festivity (the debutante ball but make it omaticaya)?? and reader participates for the fun of it. will reader stay loyal to her first love (neteyam) or does she finally notice how cute and dependable the younger brother is (lo’ak) ?? (or does she meet someone new aka cam cameron)
ensues a love triangle bc who doesnt love will they/wont they, love friends to lovers, first love, unrequited love, heartbreak, angst?? its all making sense in my head ...
my apologies if someone has already thought of this but im rewatching s1 of tsitp and forgot how good it is HAHAAH cant wait for s2...i dont post/write at all but i had to get this out of my brain i’ve been thinking about it all day

Hi!
First off, I LOVE your story. You’re so strong and every obstacle you over came made you into the beautiful person you are.
Second, I have a question, you don’t have to answer .. but does writing about your life eve trigger old emotions or make you sad during the harder times? I just always wonder how a writer feels when they’re writing their stories esp. when it’s a personal one.
I adore you. 🤍
Hey, friend! 🤗
Thank you sm! This is so sweet! 🤧 💜💜💜 and I apologize for my "long" absence. This week school started and well, was a bit hectic and stressful.
And of course, I’ll answer your question. You can ask me anything!
To your question. When I started with that Simself thing (2 or 3 years ago), I didn’t think anything serious about it. It was just some kind of... gameplay fun?
I remember having Sandra’s Simself in my library. Seeing her Simself made me so sad. I came up with the idea to tell her/our story. By now, most of you few, who still follow my story after all this time, know, that Sandra is no longer with us. 😞 Sandra was a part of my life. We were together all the time. But somehow I couldn’t understand certain things Sandra did or experienced. I'm simply not her! But I will tell what happend to S.! Soon. I just have to.
And the more I started to tell about myself, my family & Sandra, the more... complex it became. And I remember how unpopular Nico was at the beginning.🤭 A nice person here, was even worried about me and my little son. 😬 She knew I was still with him. But I wasn't offended or upset. I understand, some topics are serious and I certainly have often expressed myself incorrectly. My English was totally shitty, bad & embarrassing. 😶🌫️🤦♀️
Over time, however, I decided to write about my addiction. This was hard! I was ashamed and totally nervous when I first posted it. But I got a very nice message from another Simblr here. She had the same issue and we even become friends. But unfortunately, she is no longer active here on Tumblr. Idk what happend to her? ☹️ Maybe some of you know who I mean?...
Back to the topic: As for my addiction, I noticed that I can write about it without getting/having this ....craving for that drug. I totally forgot after almost 7 years, how it even feels to be high. And do not intend to do this shit ever again!
As for my feelings and emotions, yea, I cried when I told certain things. It made me sad, but I knew the future and this fact made it possible for me, to continue. That I could write about Nico's & my break-up, I only succeeded, because I knew this wasn't our end. He was right next to me, in the room next door, while I was writing about it.
As for Daniel, the whole thing looks totally different. When I started to write about this... triangle thing between Philip, Nico and me, I didn’t want to tell/write about Daniel a little later in the future. I was afraid I’d be considered crazy. I mean, this is insane and also embarrassing, what I have experienced and done with those 3 men. I thought when I started telling you about Daniel and that I even got married to him, nobody would take me seriously anymore. How can I fall in love with 3 different men, in just one damn year? You know? But when I played with Daniel’s Simself, I realized I couldn’t do this to him! 😭 I felt so bad, that I decided to just tell the truth. Even if people don’t take me seriously afterwards or think I’m a lunatic, hidding the truth or changing reality, is just weak and cowardly. Also why I wasn't sure, if I should tell about Daniel is, I was afraid of the feelings I still had for him. I knew, once I remember Daniel and the time with him... my life, my reality, will become complicated. But it was too late anyway. Daniel was already in my mind and heart, before I mentioned him here. And actually last year, I went through a very though time. I was depressed. It was hard for me to write about my life. I just didn’t see any hope. Mainly, because of my illness. My leukemia levels have worsened. As it looked, I had to take a new drug which has very serious side effects. So I got panic attacks again and was afraid to leave our home. The only task I could do alone was to pick up my son from kindergarten. I couldn’t do anything outside our four walls by myself without help, without Nico or someone else by my side. I was just scared...
I decided to continue my story. I thought, if I can do that, I can continue IRL too! The chapter Daniel went on forever. 🥵😔I noticed that I can’t let go of Daniel, neither in Sims nor in my reality. I just wanted to move on and finally close Daniel's & my chapter. But it was hard. IRL I started to withdraw. I didn’t let anyone get to me. All the feelings and emotions that have been triggered by writing my story have made something clear to me. I had to see Daniel! And I swear, seeing him and having him with me, helped me get out of my depression. The darkness that surrounded me faded, thanks to him. ❤️
So yes, writing about my life definitely brought up emotions in me and also opened up old wounds. But some wounds that I thought would never heal, are gone. Just because I told and wrote about it, I was able to reflect on some experiences and conclude with them. Especially my relationship with Nico has become more stable.❤️
Anyway, telling my story taught me one thing! After every difficult, hard life phase, follows a good one. Last year was hell, but I managed to take care of myself and my health. And I also got good news about my illness last month. My leukemia levels stabilized and I didn’t have to change my medication. Even if everything seems hopeless, small miracles can happen. And so that these little miracles don’t fall into oblivion, I write about them. Certainly not perfect and flawless. I am still learning. And I lost a lot of time last year, because I wrote and posted so irregularly, but I hope that I will get better in the future and my posts will be shorter again. 😬
Thank you sm for this ask. You also inspired me to improve my storytelling skills, reading your stories helped me a lot and I love Delilah. I’m always excited when I click on your posts to catch up on Deli’s life.💜🤗

Hi okya Im doing it :3
Topic of the day: Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes
Ive heard of this game ever since it got popular around 2015 - 2017, and it has always intrigued me as a kid! A fun (and stressful) co-op game about defusing a bomb that has several puzzle-like modules on it with no idea how to complete them without the help of an expert? My grabious goodness that was like music to my ears for young me! But unfortunately, I did lose interest as I forgot about the game.. until a certain Roblox game (Looking at you, Defusal) brought me back to this game
Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, or in its abbreviated name, KTaNE, is just as I said above, a bomb defusal game where one must defuse a bomb with instructions from an expert that can only see their manual! The game comes in a really nice painted aesthetic while keeping the tenseness of having to defuse a ticking bomb! Ill be discussing the general game and mods as well bc why nont
So the game has you go through several sections containing missions that gradually get harder as you progress. Each mission gives you a bomb with differing amounts of modules that can range from slightly easy to quite difficult (Depends on how well you can relay information, for me I am pretty good with all the modules, even morse!). The game sets the atmosphere really nicely with music that swells in intensity as the timer ticks down and the beeping of the timer that goes down, reminding the defuser of their job!
The modules this game presents are all super unique and fun to wrap ones head around, and one may even notice improvement with certain modules after doing them many times! Some modules that come to mind are:
The Button: A large button that can come in different colors and have different labels. The defuser has to either press the button or hold it and release it at a certain time. If the button is held, a light will appear on the right to tell when to release the button depending on the numbers on the timer! (I have a pet peeve watching people play this game and them giving the color of the button instead of the light next to it weeps)
Complicated Wires: Several wires that may come in striped or solid colored, as well as LEDs and Stars indicating if the wire should be cut or not. The expert has to read the given Venn diagram to see if the wire should be cut or not, resulting in heavy mind chugging and additional info such as if there is a port or a certain number of batteries!
The Knob: A needy module (Think a module that reactivates at random times that forces you to focus on it before handling other modules again) that shows several lights and a knob that you have to set in a certain direction before its own timer runs out! This one is a pretty annoying one considering the knob can reorient itself to throw off the defuser!
There are several more modules, but the game only has about 14 modules! So for more customization, the creators made it so the game is moddable, allowing people to make their own modules! Lets just say, as of the time I upload this, there is about 2,000+ modules made by the community. No, I am not kidding. These people have dedicated many years to creating and uploading modules for others to defuse and enjoy, and it is still heavily active with new modules almost every week or two! Some cool ones Ive seen are:
Forget Me Not: A boss module (A type of regular module that makes the defuser and expert record information every time a module is complete, and then having that information be used at the very end when all other modules are done) that displays a single digit for every solve before making you input a code with said digits. This module has plenty of variants and is commonly used in challenges.
Triangles: A group of similar-looking modules that require you to click on the triangles depending on what type it is such as Slipping Triangles, Dripping Triangles, Tipping Triangles, etc. Each have their own unique set of rules that range in difficulty. There are other modules that have similar-looking modules themselves such as the Squares, the Switches, the Flashes, and plenty more, but I prefer the triangles bc theyre my favorite lmofa
Simon Spins: A Simon Says module that has spinning arms with different colors, shapes, and movements. This is my all-time favorite Simon Says module as it is pretty fun to deal with! The large list it has in its manual as well as the unique combos makes it a new experience each time, even more so with seeds!
SO YEA I LOOOVE love KTaNE so much, and Im super glad the community is not only thriving but super friendly too! People are always available to play in the discord server, and some even allow themselves to teach other players how to do difficult modules that may stump new players! Its honestly such a blast and Im sure its a fixation thatll stick with me for a while!
Ill end this off with a large doc that I made for the sake of documenting on KTaNEs history and fanbase! Id be super elated to receive feedback on it and such, go take a look here!
#isarambles#ktane#keep talking and nobody explodes#defusal#game#games#steel crate games#indie games#I love this game a normal amount :3#No seriously this is like if you took all my interests and shoved them into a package /pos#IT HAS RIICHI MAHJONG STUFF MAN

*oop almost forgot to post* -BUUUT, looks like HB's second-half of S1's finale is finally here! 👀Lets talk about it~
Spoiler thoughts below for those who haven't seen it-
The Positives:
-The background & Gluttony ring setting were pretty gorgeous to look at, wonderfully sickly sweet & inviting with all the honeycomb/beehive aesthetics~
-Kudos to Kesha making a stellar guest appearance as "Queen Bee(-lzebub)"; a charismatic and charming party girl who turned out to have more of a heart when it all came down to it (making sure everyone was well-fed, nudging Loona to go look after Blitz, her tender side to Tex, etc.), what a vibe~ 😊
-Loona gets to shine again in a speaking role, and this time wasn't too overly-moody/aggressive, but more anxious and unsure of how to make friends with all these wild party guests (which I'm sure anyone could relate to, in some degree 🥺). Even getting to see her acknowledging more of Blitz as her dad was a nice touch (for the time being at least) ^^
-Nice to see Blitz arrive as he could to help out Loonie, even after he already had a stressful night from "Ozzie's" (+drank himself silly at Bee's party), his daughter's presence being there for him in the darkest parts of his life is what matters most, aww~ ☺️
-Tex gets to return as the best wolf bro that he is, and his lil moments with his girlfriend Bee (while arguably a bit overdone with the “royalty x commoner” theme, given some other HB pairs we got atm-) were still pretty wholesome on their own too~ 💛
The Negatives:
-As sweet as it was to see more of Loona's softer/vulnerable side (especially when tending to her dad at the end)... idk, it just makes me all the more crushed at how "Seeing Stars" just threw away that potential development out the window, so her & Blitz actually get along for once here isn't meant to "mean" anything in the long run… 😔*sighs*
-Pacing felt a teeeensy bit rushed/unfinished in some parts... like on one hand you have Bee's song running for a good chunk of time (like a standard iTunes single), but stuff like Loona's anxiety/rivalry with those snobby dogs at the party wasn't really addressed afterwards once Blitz entered the picture (opting instead for filler of him drinking/fooling around while Loona's just... kinda "there", up until they go home)? Idk, I kinda get in-hindsight why Viv had to make this a shorter ep, but in this sense I feel like just a few more mins added could've really enhanced the story a lil better.
-While the tonal shifts weren't... too clunkily-handled compared to some of S2's lineup, I'll admit there's some parts that could've used a bit of tweaking in the emotional bits imo (Like Blitz just abruptly throwing up after moping about his love life... while funny initially, it still makes one wonder if it really "needed" to be there, yknow?)
-Enjoyably catchy as a classic lil callback to the early 2000s!era of pop/clubbing music… after a few listens. "Cotton Candy" does feel a lil too long/repetitive in a couple parts, I'll admit .w.; Which… probably was the intention now that I think about it ('cause yknow, Gluttony-) buuuut, ye lol
-As much as I enjoyed seeing Tex & his friendship with Loona again... ehhhh, with her lowkey still seeming to have a crush on him (+her implied jealousy at Bee), I'm a bit afraid this might lead to some unnecessary love triangle bs if not handled carefully .x.; Since we already got enough of that with Blitz' love life atm, we really don't need more melodrama tbh >>
-Finally... yeaaaaah I know this is already getting kinda "debated" enough already in the fandom, but as far as my thoughts on Bee's design goes? ...Kiiiiiinda don't really know what to think still tbh- ^^;;
Like, okay there's parts I do genuinely love about it, like the bee-theming, the honey hair & lava lamp aesthetic (+the lowkey-callback to the "Die Young" wolf girl was a cute touch)... buuuuut then you get to the random canine-bod/blue tuft of hair that the design just loses me from there, I'm afraid glkjgk .w.;;
Again, I don't hate the canon Bee design overall, and I'm curious to see if she'll make any other reappearances down the line (even if they might need to recast her for budget issues like w/ Striker)... buuut idk, if I had to personally reimagine her myself I'd personally lean more to her being a cute bee demon imho .3.
-----------
-Aaaaand yeah, that about covers it for my thoughts regarding this ep! :> I'd say overall I'd give it.... hmm, a B-rank perhaps? (hehe bee pun-) .3. A lil heavy on the filler in some parts (and in the long run could arguably be one of the more "skippable" eps), but for what its worth it had some good vibing moments for me as a palate-cleanser to some of the "lesser" S2 eps, previously ^^ 👍

UFO anon here! Yeah my bro tried to murder me, just family things 🤪 Anyways it was super wild so buckle up.
I was up super late at night when I was a teen cause I was a menace and never went to bed before like 4 am. And you know that thing where something happens so slowly you don’t notice it until it’s right there? Well over the course of like half an hour a sound kept getting louder. It was a deep humming that sounded like a mosquito fogger a block or two away, so I brushed it off as it’s common in my area in the middle of nowhere. I didn’t realize til later that it was WAY too early in the season for that my months. I brushed the noise off until I could feel it, it had three tones a mid tone, a very high pitched tone, and an incredibly deep bass tone. The made my guts shake like when you stand too close to a bass. I thought it was strange that nothing else was shaking.
I still brushed it off 🙄
My blinds were open as I lived in a middle of nowhere town (can’t stress that enough) so there was really no risk of creeps. I could see a street lamp, the top of my neighbours house and some trees. I saw another light but we had had a storm a few days before and figured maybe a branch had been knocked down so again, ignored it and went back to playing video games, until it moved.
Obviously I thought ‘no fucking way’ but decided to watch it anyways just to confirm. It moved so slowly but it moved. So I got up to get a better look. It was huge, similar in colour to the street lamps but more red. There was just enough light pollution in town to see a giant black triangle behind the single light.
I grew up right next to an airbase and was an air cadet on the base, and my mother was an aircraft mechanic (I know, sounds super convenient) even seeing tons of aircrafts in my life, I had never seen anything close to it. Considering it’s size and general height to the ground it shouldn’t have been able to move as slowly as it was.
My first instinct was to be excited, even if it was alien in origin it was still probably not seen by really anyone. I thought maybe it was a flight test for a secret craft? But why would they be flying it over my town?
I had a game plan. I was going to grab a phone and go to my back porch to get a photo or any evidence that I saw something, I was ecstatic! I practically skipped to my bedroom door.
As soon as I opened my door and was just about to do through it, it was like a switched flipped in my brain. I went from giddy to the most but deep terrified I have ever been in my life. I remember thinking ‘if you go outside, you’re not coming back’ but it made me sick because it didn’t feel like my own thought, like someone was telling to me.
As I was standing in the doorframe I could see someone or something in my peripheral at the far end of the hall. I could hear my brother snoring, and my mum was in bed too. They were the only other in the house.
My body felt like it was on auto pilot. Almost mechanically I took off my slippers and my glasses, and went to get in bed. For a minute I thought of looking for something I could use as a weapon but again the ‘other�� thought was in my head and said (and I will never forget it) ‘there is nothing you could do, no weapon you can have, that’s going to stop what’s going to happen from happening’
So I just accepted it and got into bed, pulled the covers to my chin and laid like a corpse totally defenceless, I’ve never felt more like a prey animal than in that moment.
I waited for anything to happen, and nothing did. After such a long build up the noise faded in what fell like maybe five minutes. I’m a big trust your gut person, so I waiting until I felt safe and RAN to my mums room. (This is mad long so I’ll send another part lmao)
AGH I forgot to answer these I’m so sorry for the delay!
brushing stuff off is so real though, idk I feel like it’s just What You Do. Holy shit this is all so much, you’re far braver than I am, idk if I could investigate things like that all on my own abdjgjkt. Your reaction is also so real like, I’d also end up running to my bed until I felt safe then running to the nearest adult or person

So when I wrote the above post, I’d just finished Chapter 7 of Guinevere. It’s now 2 weeks later and I’ve just finished Chapter 9. I’m still loving the book, but my thoughts and feelings have evolved a little, so I thought it’d be interesting if I started periodically reblogging this post to track my opinions as the story unfolds. There are 3 things that Chapter 9 highlighted for me that I’d like to talk about:
[1] Firstly, this was the chapter that really demonstrated for me the different ‘feel’ of the romances with Arthur and Lancelot. I’m not just talking about how Arthur is available & earnest and Lancelot is forbidden & repressed, because that’s been obvious since Day 1. But it wasn’t until Guinevere and Lancelot’s interactions on the road in this chapter that I realised just how light & teasing their dynamic can be, whereas the interactions with Arthur have always been a bit more heartfelt & solemn, even when he and Guinevere are in relaxed settings. On a more symbolic level, this also seems to reflect how Lancelot’s held back from Guinevere by deep moral principles and so connects with her through irreverence & banter, whereas Arthur’s held back from Guinevere by the awkward artifice of their engagement and so connects with her through sincerity & directness. I’m not sure if Chapter 9 is actually the first one to demonstrate this or if I’m just late to the party – after all, I haven’t been actively romancing Lancelot, so this chapter was the first time my Guinevere spent a significant amount of time alone with them. But I think it also helps that this chapter is probably the most relaxed we’ve ever seen Lancelot, because they’re heading back to their own estate and leaving some of the tension that comes with being a knight of Camelot behind. And sure, they’re making the journey under pretty dire circumstances, but I honestly think that just adds to the story’s layers – because Lancelot’s struggle between duty & love, and by extension, between Arthur & Guinevere, is now represented in their dramatic mood swings between being worried about Arthur & Camelot, being overjoyed to have Guinevere to themselves, and then being horrified that they even subconsciously considered betraying Arthur like that. It’s a very cool, complex dynamic, and I’m very interested to see how it holds up over time. Which leads me to my next point:
[2] Unfortunately, I did feel in Chapter 9 that the book’s awesome handling of its love triangle was starting to slip a little. Basically, up until Chapter 8 Lancelot’s love was only ever implied, so it was very possible to play as a Guinevere who’s enamoured with Arthur alone and has no idea of the romantic drama brewing. But in Chapter 9, the final conversation on the road & the associated vision of Lady Elaine make Lancelot’s feelings undeniably clear, and it seems like the writers just totally forgot that there are some purely Arthur-romancing Guineveres (in fact, a lot of purely Arthur-romancing Guineveres) for whom this constitutes an earth-shattering revelation. Suddenly, my Guinevere understands why Lancelot has always behaved so strangely towards her. Suddenly, she has an inkling of what might cause the rift she foresaw between Lancelot & Arthur. Suddenly, she feels totally responsible for precipitating both Camelot’s potential fall & Arthur’s potential heartbreak, and she’s frantically formulating plans to prevent that while also struggling, in the moment, to somehow respond to this unexpected confession from somebody she considered a friend. Granted, those are pretty complex things to code into a single pathway of a visual novel, and I didn’t expect them to be addressed in any detail. But at minimum, I expected an ‘Oh’-type internal dialogue box where Guinevere realises that Lancelot’s in love with her, followed by a choice between confessing her love in return, gently letting Lancelot down, expressing confusion/indecision, and maybe expressing anger as a fourth option given how high-stress the situation is. Instead, the game just acts as if Guinevere has always known Lancelot’s feelings, and then the only opportunity for a reaction is this:
Honestly, that choice almost shattered my resolve about not romancing Lancelot, because the platonic option is just such a harsh, OOC thing for Guinevere to say. It really took me out of the story and made me feel like I couldn’t have a good reading experience unless I pursued both LIs. Which then led me to start worrying about my third point:
[3] I think it’s really cool that this book has been written with distinct ‘narrative acts’, but I’m also worried that the pacing of them might be off. I’m assuming that each of the tapestry segments being revealed in the opening credits represents a new act of the book, which means we’re now leaving Act 1, where Guinevere arrived in Camelot and got to know her LIs, and entering Act 2, where tension escalates between them and Camelot starts to fall. The thing that worries me is that, conventionally-speaking, you’d expect the characters to have all their narrative leads on the table by the start of Act 2 and the scope of the story to be shrinking down & focusing. Instead, we’ve got a mystery investigation that’s yielded nothing but red herrings, Lancelot & Guinevere gallivanting away from the action in Camelot, and a vision implying that the climax of the Act is going to be Lancelot confessing their love, a thing that’s already kinda happened (and which my Guinevere has already kinda shot down). The point is, maybe I’m just getting ahead of myself here – and maybe the VIP players who’ve already finished reading are about to have a good chuckle – but it feels as if the book just isn’t on track for where it narratively wants to be. In order for Act 2 to get established and then wrap up within the 8 chapters we have left, I think things are going to end up at least a little bit rushed. It also doesn’t help that PB has a habit of rushing the endings of epic stories – think Across the Void, Nightbound, Distant Shores, Foreign Affairs – so it’s hard to stay optimistic that Guinevere will be any different. I’m certainly going to try to give it the benefit of the doubt, because I’m still really enjoying it and there’s no point in letting that get spoiled, but – I’m way more tentative than I was before. I guess I’ll keep documenting my thoughts in this post, so. Thank you for coming on this journey with me 😅💕
Okay, but can I just say, Guinevere is doing an AMAZING job of portraying a love triangle without forcing it on the reader. Every romantic comment that the MC makes to the LIs is coded as a choice, with an alternate option that is platonic but equally meaningful, and the LIs never cross those boundaries that the MC sets but are still very clearly flagged as being love with her & aware of their competition for her affection. To give an example of what I mean, I’ve had zero trouble playing as an MC who has eyes only for Arthur, and yet I’m also very aware of Lancelot silently pining for MC and have seen that dynamic being enhanced by conversations that my MC perceives as friendly, like when she asks Lancelot to call her Guinevere instead of Princess in Chapter 7. When everything eventually reaches breaking point and Lancelot confesses their love, it’s going to feel very organic, and even though my MC never really courted Lancelot, the sense of turmoil on her part & of betrayal on Arthur’s will feel very organic too. It’s such a big change from stories like The Royal Romance, where it was impossible to romance anyone other than Liam without leading him on and dumping him mid-proposal, or even stories like Immortal Desires, where you could technically pick whichever LI(s) you wanted but the story just rang false if you didn’t romance both at once. Also, I know that the handling of the love triangle is just one part of PB’s challenge to adapt a fixed legend into a flexible CYOA, and I’m wondering if that extra pressure to think creatively is part of what has led to such a great dynamic. I’m just really, really enjoying it, and that’s rare for Choices nowadays. I can’t wait to see where the writers go next.

can you expand on rhaenyra's maladaptive relationships
re: this post
Sure! So this is book canon obviously, but Rhaenyra as a child is described as precocious, bright, appropriately socialized, and we see that she's able to adapt to life after her mother who doted on her passed away (excited about a tourney, being involved in her father's second marriage celebrations). She does well at her job as a cupbearer. All good and normal development.
A few years following Viserys I's marriage to Alicent Hightower, we find that she has become intensely attached to Criston Cole (only had eyes for him) despite being mocked for it by Alicent and having other suitors. She grows up in a court where grown noblefolk whisper against her claim & she knows it. Dresses dramatically to make a statement due to the breakdown in communication between her and Alicent/Viserys, she's also seemingly unable to bond with her siblings. When Daemon returns to King's Landing, Rhaenyra is adamant that he stay, and whatever happened between them it's clear that she at least strongly attached herself to him. This is all intense stuff, her all or nothing attitude to relationships, & the result of growing up in a less than united home where her place was uncertain.
I wouldn't call Rhaenyra's triangle with Laenor & Harwin maladaptive today, but for the time period it is a bit of malicious compliance. Viserys orders her to get married, claim her seat on Dragonstone, and multiply? No problem *has 3 kids with Harwin* (best boys in the world btw). Harwin is at least somewhat emotionally entangled there, rumored to be by her side in the birthing chambers and spending his time at her keep despite being heir to Harrenhal, but Rhaenyra's feelings for him are conspicuously absent. So was it love? A bit of a fuck you? A nervous latching onto Harwin? Maybe some of each.
Rhaenyra does have nervous ticks & anxiety as well, ofc.
Her bodice often glittered with pearls and diamonds, and there were always rings on her fingers. Whenever she was anxious, she would turn them compulsively, round and round. Though Rhaenyra could be charming, she was quick to anger and never forgot a slight. --SSM
Anxiety, anger issues, basically maladaptive behaviors that indicate all the uncertainty of her position in the realm & in her family taking a toll on her.
Daemon is obviously the most intense relationship of them all; even after claiming Dragonstone Rhaenyra always kept him close and Laena dies it's implied they fall into bed with each other very fast. Part of a pattern where Rhaenyra never stays single long (in general periods when people go through romantic/sexual partners in rapid succession aren't during the most stable moments in their lives). A fear of being alone doesn't mean she doesn't love her partners but it presents a question mark
Daemon is a combination of everything--her family like Viserys, her husband like Laenor, her lover like Harwin, their shared grief over Laena. This is a headcanon but I think Daemon knows all that & that Rhaenyra and Daemon had a push-pull thing with control. Rhaenyra sending Daemon to kill Vaemond Velaryon. Daemon sleeping with Mysaria under her nose. Rhaenyra saying it's fine cause she's busy ruling. Daemon taking vengeance for Lucerys into his own hands in a very... flashy manner. Rhaenyra summoning him whenever she had a need. She did that back-and-forth before with Viserys as well, considering that Viserys was constantly giving her & Alicent gifts/honors etc to appease them, as proof of his love.
King Viserys loved both his wife and daughter, and hated conflict and contention. He strove all his days to keep the peace between his women, and to please both with gifts and gold and honors. --F&B: Heirs of the Dragon
There's a lot said about her stress-eating once she takes the throne, isolating herself in the Red Keep, having her children at her side 24/7 after losing several sons, her sudden flip in trust in the dragonseeds when Mysaria advises her to and is once of the only councilors left to her (which probably led Rhaenyra to placing more trust in her that she should have). In case I haven't stressed it enough, Rhaenyra doesn't do well alone! She relies on her supporters because she learned to at a young age, is hypersensitive to the thought of losing them, and has explosive reactions to betrayal.
It's not that any of these things are 'unreasonable,' it's just that they're all learned behaviors that are not random nor do they arise for no reason. Rhaenyra is a survivor, with all that implies. Her story very much reflects that.

12 am.
12 in the fucking morning and Eren isn't back yet.
he left at 8 pm talking about how Historia texted him and, how he'll be back soon
your eyes slowly made their way to the cold dinner on the counter
he also mentioned he'd be back in time for dinner.
whens fucking dinner because it ain't at 12 in the morning
you sat on the couch staring at your phone waiting, praying for Eren to text or call you
he better have gotten into a car crash.
taking a sip from the wine Hange has blessed you with a couple of days prior you cross your legs.
you were in sweats and a tank top, real fancy.
your head snaps at the door hearing it unlock
Eren walks in getting startled by your presence
"Fuck baby you scared the shit out of me" his chuckles lowly turned into him clearing his throat to explain his absence
"Sorry about that, Historia and I were talking for a while after we put Alma down..."
sucking on the gums of your mouth you try to keep in the urge to just start screaming at him
"B-baby?"
you place your wine glass on the coffee table and get up to leave for the bedroom, you have so much you want to say but you just can't.
"Honey, wait" he grabs your hand and you finally look at him.
"I'm sorry that I was gone for so long...are you alright?"
"I'm I alright?" you ask in almost a whisper, is he serious?
"You left me to hang out with your friend and look at a sleeping child...honestly Eren I'm getting fucking tired at being the second choice"
"Come on Y/n you know how much Alma means to me..."
"I'm not talking about Alma..." your voice lightly cracks, awaiting his response.
"You can't be serious...Historia?" he slightingly chuckles just to straighten himself up at your stern gaze
"You're jealous of Historia?" he looks at you, taking your silence as a yes.
"I'm upset that you constantly put Historia above me, over and over again"
"You know it has to be that way, for Alma"
"It doesn't seem like it's for Alma anymore."
he stumbles back a little, laughing
"What? You want me to stop seeing Alma because you're jealous that her mother has a good relationship with me?"
"I'm not saying that, what I'm saying is that I'm still you're girlfriend Eren."
"What, Do you think I forgot something? What do you want from me?"
"I want to know if a 6-month-old baby cries, does her dad need to drive over right away to calm her down? I'm asking if you need to end dinner with your girlfriend to say goodnight to baby and talk with her mother for 4 fucking hours."
"I want to be a part of Alma's life y/n, I want to be there even if its the small things. you don't know how much it hurts that I can't be there 24/7"
"Oh well, maybe you should move in!" you say sarcastically
"Yeah, maybe I will."
"You don't know how fucking stressful it is. I don't get a break. I have to be a dad there and the 'perfect boyfriend' here." he snaps at you
you scoff at him,
"Eren...you haven't touched me in 2 weeks. I haven't had affection from my boyfriend for 2 weeks, I'm not asking for the perfect boyfriend I'm asking for the bare minimum."
he looks at you with hurt eyes, that really did it for him.
"Me. me being here is the best I can do. if you want more I'm not the guy."
"I want you to be with Alma and I want you to have a good relationship with Historia... it's just..."
"What"
"I don't think you actually like being here...with me." you say as you choke on your tears
"No baby, I love you why can't you see that?"
"I- I just feel like you'd prefer to be with her than me...I'm sorry Eren if I'm asking for too much but all I want is for you to love me. I'm not asking for you to choose me or her, I'm asking if you're still here for me."
"I don't know how to explain it...I just feel...neglected in this relationship" you say as more tears escape your eyes
you look into his eyes with burry ones, he looks hurt.
"Please Eren...please...all I want is for you to show me you care...I won't keep doing this if you don't want to"
"No, no, I'm sorry...fuck, I'm really really sorry" he walks up to you wrapping his arms around you
you start wetting up his shirt with your tears as he picks you up and takes you to bed
placing you on the mattress he turns to get changed but you tug on his sweat pants indicating for him to stay
he takes off his shirt and crawls into bed where he held you in the entire night.
maybe, it'll be easier if I just let him go
maybe, it'll be easier if I just shut up
maybe, it'll be easier if I just suck it up
maybe, it'll be easier if I wasn't such a pain
maybe, it'll be easier if I never existed.

Decided to make a series of body headcanons for Selkie AU now that I've had more time to think about and draw everyone! So let's get started with the twins!
Putting under readmore to be safe, even though they’re only shirtless.
Notes on Ingo!
-Doesn’t retain many scars, but he does have one on his chest that hit quite hard...is it from an Alpha Pokemon as is often HC’d, or somewhere else?
-Yes, those are all the tattoos from the “Poetry in Ink” fic. Full sleeves of his Hisui and Modern teams, the triangle (that I forgot to shade oops) with his initials, and the railroad tracks on the spine (broken where the worst of his spinal injuries were). Also a wedding ring tattoo in case the physical ring ever gets lost.
-Ingo’s Z-Crystal aligns with his special move as a Guardian Selkie, “Seventh Wave”. Thus, it is a blue Water Z-Crystal!
-Ingo’s hair tends to be long and scruffy, though folks usually don’t see that under his hat.
-Of the two, Ingo has better upper body strength, especially after Hisui. He also tends to be stockier overall, which is perfect for his defensive shield-based fighting style; once this train gets moving, it is nigh impossible to knock him off course.
Notes on Emmet!
-Even less permanent scars than Ingo. However, he’s got a bad case of dermatrillomania, so his shoulders and upper arms are riddled in scabs when he gets stressed. He tries to keep his nails short and gloves on in order to circumvent this.
-His Z-Crystal aligns to his unique move as a Warrior Selkie, “Tempered Edge”! Thus, it’s a silver Steel Z-Crystal!
-Emmet’s actually had most of his tattoos longer than Ingo. The leg tattoo is a growing collection of initials from his many loved ones over the years, while his back tattoo is from a painting one of his previous partners painted. He got his white triangle tattoo to go with Ingo’s black one.
-Emmet keeps his hair shorter in general, and gets antsy if it’s too long. It also tends to be staticky due to the constant Joltiks.
-Emmet is slightly leaner than his twin, though he still has a decent layer of insulation. Where Ingo is more top-heavy with his muscles, Emmet has stronger lower-body strength, which helps with his hit-and-run swordplay tactics.
-As seen here, he defaults to standing on the balls of his feet, and his movements tend to be bouncier.

Lucifer walked through the halls, he had to get to work, and seeing now as the actual fuckimg Devil is involved. After half an hour of wondering, Lucifer managed to find Alastors office. The man said he had evidence from a few of the murders and disappearances, which now Lucifer knew Adam was involved with every single one of them.
Coming up to a large wooden door in the southern wing, be could see Alastors name written on a plaque next to the door. He reached up and knocked acouple of times.
Alastor: yes? ah! Lucifer! How are this afternoon- my goodness! Are you bleeding?!
Shit. Lucifer completely forgot about the wound Adam gave him this moment. He's been dealing with a lot since then, so it slipped his mind. It wasn't like it was hurting. Lucifer brought his hand up, and touched his shoulder. It was completely healed, it was only his clothes.
Lucifer: oh! This is nothing! Just a hole, I think I put on an old robe! I'm sorry for appearing before you like this Father-
Alastor: nonsense brother Luicfer! There's no issue, we've all been there. You're under a lot of stress. I'll issue you a new robe, I've actually been meaning to give you one of ours. I don't know if you've noticed, but the Hazbin has its own unique set of uniforms.
Now that Alastro pointed it it, they're uniforms did look different. Mainly the priests outfits. They were lined a dark red, with small black trim. Lucifer looked over his new robe, running his fingers over the red.
Alastor: just a little personal touch~. I've always though the church made these outfits so boring, nothing wrong with a bit of colour! Now, I'll go grab some files for you, and leave you to get dressed.
With that, Alastor walked into the side room, next to a small kitchenette. Lucifer took the chance to put his new robe on, it fits perfectly, and he couldn't help but think the red suited him.
Alastor: right, here we are!
Alastor carried a large box, placing it on his desk.
Alastor: these are cases from 1866 to 6 months ago. Sister Susan's file is yet to be added, Lady Rosie is still conducting the autopsy.
Lucifer: Lady Rosie? Is she from the village?
Alastor: Lady Rosie has been a very close friend of mine for many years! After learning of the deaths that happened here, I asked her to join me. I told her, her services may be needed, she laughed of course, as anyone would. But there's been over 11 deaths and 2 disappearances since we arrived. Look like I was right, once again
Alastor chuckled, and handed Lucfier a file from 1912. The case of brothers Bard and Joshua. Very strange. It was thought they killed eachother, many nuns heard them fighting over someone, a real loves triangle.
Lucifer: who were they fighting over?
Alastor: no one knows. But their throats were torn out, and it looked like teeth marks.
Lucifer: they... bit eachothers throats?
Alastor: their windpipe was destroyed, brother. This wasn't a nip. And no, I don't think it was them. There was no blood reported around their mouths. The teeth marks were drawn out. Pretty beasty, don't you think brother?
Alastor slid a piece of paper over to him. The marks were long, and jagged, but that could have been the torn flesh. The damage was intense, like a wild animal. There were dogs and big cats in the forests near by, maybe they did it?
Lucifer: an animal could have done this. Where were they found?
Lucifer looked up to Alastor who was looming over him, a dark look in his eye and a uncomfortable pull to his smile.
Alastor: they were found in the church. Right were the sermons are given... hanging off the statue of Jesus...
Lucifer: right... so no animal then
Alastor: no animal.
Lucifer: is there a case file for a Father Steven?
Alastor: ah, Father Steve. Yes, right here. Very interesting this one
Alastor put away the autopsy paper, and pulled out a small file with the name Father Steven: 115th.
Lucifer: 165?
Alastor: he was the 115th leader of this monastery.
Lucifer: and you're the...?
Alastor: 166th. Very exciting, I know.
Lucifer read through his file. When missing 5 years ago, in the autumn. Walked out the front doors at 4:30am, said he was meeting someone, then he never came back. Some of the nuns said they heard a commotion in the forest near the village. Dogs barking, crows circling the Hazbin... but there's no proof, more likely superstitious nuns.
Lucifer: right...
There was a photo of Father Steve on the front page, he was smiling. But he had a smugness about him that Lucifer didn't like. So, this was the guy Adam was fooling around with?
'Left of the 26th at 4:30am for unknown reasons, told Sister Lucy he was meeting a friend, and to "hold the fort". Three bones were found a couple of weeks later, teeth and craw marks were craved into a femur, and two ribs. Believed to be caused by coyote teeth. Claws maybe that of a bob cat. Bones were not confirmed to be Father Steven.
Some believe he took off because of the investigation his superiors were conducting on him for multiple counts of desecration of a corpse and indecent exposure to more that 10 Sisters at attendance to the Hazbin Monastery'.
Lucifer: "indecent exposure"?
Lucifer looked up to Alastor, who's expression hadn't changed.
Alastor: he was found often wandering the halls naked... I heard it wasn't a pretty site.
Lucifer: right... so, many think he just left?
Alastor: some do. Some think he killed himself in the forest and the dogs ate him. Some also think he met a woman in town and ran off with her. It's all speculation, of course, all I know is Father Steve hasn't shown back up and the church hasn't heard from him.
Lucifer: mind if I see those runes that were caved into the nuns body? You mentioned it yesterday.
Alastor: ah! Yes, would you prefer more recent pictures or drawings from older cases?
Lucifer: why not both?
After an hour, Lucifer left Alastors office carrying the unreasonably heavy box.
Those runes matched. From the first case to a dead nun in the 70s to another nun 11 months ago! Adam really is having a fun time with all this.
Lucifer shifted the box to get a better grip, he was too preoccupied that he couldn't see where he was going. Walking into something hard, he looked up. Frozen, he started to back away.
Adam: you need to watch where you're going Father, would hate for you to break something~.
Adam stepped closer to Lucifer, smiling. It was a sweet smile, but Lucifer could sense something wasn't right with it. He never took his eyes off him. He wanted to catch every twitch from Adam, and he didn't want to miss anything.
Lucifer: Adam. I apologize, please excuse me-
Adam: what kind of man would I be if I left you to carry this heavy thing by yourself? Need a hand?
No. Nope.
Lucifer: i- uh-
Adam: where are you going? I'll carry it for you
Lucifer: my room-
Adam: perfect~.
Lucifer handed Adam the box, he didn't know why, but his arms just moved on their own. As soon as it was placed in Adams arms, he hissed and dropped it. A black smoke rasing off the box and Adam's arms. Once it cleared, his sleeves were melted and burned, his skin red. Lucifer couldn't believe it, after a few seconds it was healed.
Lucifer backed away, starting to shake. He didn't know the box was blessed.
Adam said nothing, slowly looking from the box, to Lucifer.
Adam: I told you. To stay away. What are you doing walking around with that. Fucking. Box- what's in it, Lucifer?
Lucifer panicked as he hit the wall, Adam kept walking up to him. Lucifer instantly covered his neck with his hand, the other going to his cross that was hanging from his neck.
Lucifer: s-stay back Adam- that is private information- nothing to do with you-!
Adam stopped, and glared at Lucifer. His eyes started to glow red with anger, making Lucifer grip his cross harder.
Adam: "nothing to do with me"? It BURNED me, Lucifer. We have a fucking deal- you lie to the Vatican and you get to live.
Lucifer: I'm just curious of the history of the Hazbin, Adam. That's all that is, old files. Nothing more.
Adam: oh, you expect me to believe building reports and sign in sheets are in a blessed box? Coming out of Alastors office? Yeah, you're going to need to try harder than that, babe~.
Lucifer: fine... they're files of everyone that's gone missing or died here. I'm still following our deal, I haven't reported to that Vatican, but I want to keep everyone safe here, Adam.
Adam: not including yourself, Lucifer?
Lucifer: I've done a lot of bad things... I'm sure no matter what I do, I'll be seeing you when I die... but I couldn't live with myself if I stood back and let you hurt one more person-
Adam rushed forward and got in his face, snarling. Lucifer pulled his head away as much as he could. He could feel the heat radiating off Adam. He jumped as a long tongue licked up the side of his face and then down to his neck.
Adam: that's so sweet of you, Luci~. But there's nothing that can stop me- not Alastor, not Steve, not Susan amd especially not. You. You'll just be another file filled with useless bits of paper. No one will remember you or care~
Lucifer felt tears well up, he can't let Adam get to him. He was almost back to his room, he just needs to keep calm and he'll be fine-.
Adam: but I care, Lucifer.
Lucifer: w-what?
Adam: even though today hasn't gone exactly as I planned, I really hate what I did to you earlier- you do matter to me
Lucifer jumped as Adam's hand cupped his check, his mood changed so quickly, Lucifer felt so confused. He couldn't see anger on his face anymore, his eyes were normal, and he had that soft smile Lucifer loved so much.
Lucifer: i-i do...?
Adam: hmmhm, I know it might not seem like that- but trust me. I'm not as bad as they say I am, Lucifer, I don't want to hurt you- you're different.
Lucifer: ...I trust you
He doesn't. But he can play Adam at his own game. He hoped. He really doesn't want to be another murder or disappearance.
Adam: good! Now, you'll be taking that box back to Father Alastor, and joining me in the preyer room, sound like a plan?
Lucifer: p-preyer room? Why?
Adam: I've treated you so badly today, I need to make it up to you~. Don't you think?
Lucifer: i- uh... yeah... you do
Adam: great! Off you go- don't leave me waiting, Lucifer. Evening preyer starts in two hours, wouldn't want to get caught, would we~?
Lucifer: no, of course not! I'll meet you there
Adam: I'll see you there, babe~
Lucifer watched as Adam walked off down the long hallway, he could still hear him complaining about ruining about uniform. As soon as he was gone, Lucifer picked up the box and quickly made his way back to his room. Once inside, he slid it under his bed. He'll have to go through it tonight.
Lucifer went into his bathroom, to clean his face. Staring in the mirror, he saw a red rash forming where Adams tongue was. Right. That happened, and he had to go see him again, very soon.
The fuck has Lucifer gotten himself into?
Devil and the Priest!au
(Feel free to change the name- it's 1am where I am, so my brain is starting to fry lol)

Lucifer drove through the country side, he's been behind the wheel for nearly 5 hours. He didn't realize how much of a drive getting to this monastery. He knew it was remote but this is getting ridiculous- he should have brought snacks.
He glanced out his window every now and then to take in the scenery. He's currently driving past a large body of water, where he spotted a small island. He wishes he was over there, with no worries or expectations. With no one but himself. The Vatican has been on his ass lately about making this trip. Apparently, there was something 'dark- and 'unsettling' at this monastery. If any of the priests he knew were anything to go by, it was probably just them. He swore they refused to die, they had more wrinkles than brain cells.
Lucifer turned his radio up, some type of rock song was one, it was a big no no to be listening to music like this, it's his car. Driver picks the music, and the Vatican shuts their cake hole.
Finally, as the sun was setting, Lucifer arrived at the monastery. The large stone building loomed over him, maybe the Vatican was right, this place was unsettling. He felt like he was being watched, the multiple colours in the sky masking how decrepit this place actually is. Pulling out a brochure from his pocket, Lucifer couldn't help but smirk, they're really trying to market this place like it's a holiday retreat.
Lucifer: "Welcome to the Hazbin. Find not only sanctuary and enlightenment but also beaches and the best crab around!" ...right, definitely staying away from the crab then...
After an exhausted sign, Lucifer licked his car and picked up his bags. Making his way towards the large wooden doors, Lucifer couldn't help but dread the next two or three hours, all he wanted was to hop into bed and close the world off foe a few hours but he'd probably have to take the whole tour and- ew- meeting people.
He shuddered at the thought.
Lucifer: I wonder if I could convince them to leave the formalities till tomorrow...
Lucifer gripped a huge, iron door knocker and banged it three times. He knew this could take a while so he prepared to get comfortable- until the door was pulled open.
Priest: Hello! And welcome to the Hazbin! How can I assist you this fine evening!
Lucifer: uh- yeah- hi, my name Luicfer, I've been told to come here by the Vatican- I've been told you're expecting me...?
Priest: hm... Lucifer...
The man flicked through a small book, humming every so often. What's the point in having glasses if you still can't read a damn book.
Lucifer: look man- sir- it's been a long drive, I'd really like to just get to sleep-
Priest: ah! Yes! Here you are, Lucifer! Please, come right in! We've been expecting you for hours, your overseer said you would be here this morning- but better late than never I suppose!
The man moved aside to let Lucifer in. He really didn't like this guy, but that's not new, priest are pretty... eccentric.
The man shit the door behind him, using at least six locks to secure it.
Priest: pardon my manners, Lucifer! My name is Alastor- Father Alastor. And I'll be your superior while you're here
Ah, great. He has to answer to this... lovely man. Forcing a smile, Lucifer did what he did best: lie.
Lucifer: that's very exciting Father Alastor, look forward to working with you and getting to know this place more personally!
Alastor: oh, I could imagine! I'm sure you've heard a lot about me! I've been in charge of five other monasteries before this one! All saw a raise in volunteers and profits.
Lucifer: that's fantastic, Father. It's a real honor to be working on this project with you-
Alastor: "project", yes, that's one word to describe it.
Alastor lead Lucifer down a long hall, hebcouldbt believe how quiet it was. He was told there were at least 60-70 nuns and other workers here but it just seemed abandoned.
Thankfully, Alastor showed Lucifer to his room, it was large with a queen bed in the middle. It didn't have much furniture, just a set of draws and a desk out looking the garden. It was dead and overgrown, but the air was fresh, he'll have to start taking up writing again.
Alastor: well! Lucifer, it is a real pleasure to have you here! Tomorrow I'll show you around and I introduce you to some of the other occupants here- there are quite a few so I do expect you to introduce yourself to some of them in your own time.
Lucifer dumped his bags on his bed, and turned to face Alastor.
Lucifer: that understandable. Thank you for this Alastor, I'll see you in the morning-
Alastor: bright and early Mr Lucifer. I like to get the day started as the break of dawn
Of course he does.
Lucifer: great! I better get some sleep then
Alastor: yes, you should. Goodnight Lucifer
Finally, Lucifer was alone. Or at least he hoped. He still hasn't shaking that feeling from earlier. Except this time, he was certain nothing was watching him, Alastor seemed to be the only other living thing here. And that's giving the bastard a lot of credit. Not once did he stop smiling- Lucifer already wants to wipe that look off his face.
All Lucifer wanted to do was sleep, so he got comfortable and started to drift off.

Lila and Changbin had been in the car together for four hours, and so far it had been…
Nice.
While she really always liked Changbin, in a big group, the man seemed to feed off of everyone else, being particularly obnoxious when he wanted to be.
And Lila wasn’t sure what she’d been expecting- maybe Changbin to be talking a mile a minute the entire drive or to be looking through his luggage, realizing he forgot something again.
But what she hadn’t been expecting, was driving with Changbin to be so weirdly peaceful.
They’d been listening to his music for most of the trip, Lila switching through song after song, the two of them either singing along to the words or listening in a comfortable silence, just enjoying it instead.
Sometimes, they would talk, too; just light conversation when things came up, like when Lila saw an airplane overhead and she told the man about her flight to South Korea from the U.S. with Maddie terrified beside her for fourteen hours. Or when they passed by a farm and Changbin told her he’d milked a cow before, and it was way cooler than he’d expected it to be.
The four hours had passed so quickly, Lila checked the time and was surprised before the song was changing, her eyes widening in excitement.
“Oh my god!” she exclaimed, Changbin glancing over at her with a small smile. “I love this song!”
“Me too!” he said, laughing a bit before she couldn’t hear it anymore, turning the volume up way too loud.
They were singing at the top of their lungs again, Lila giggling between lyrics as Changbin kept his eyes on the road, smiling brightly.
“If I lay here… If I just lay here…-”
“Would you lie with me and forget the wor-”
But the music stopped both of them looking at one another in confusion before Changbin’s phone was lighting up, a call from Chan coming in.
Lila’s stomach flipped at the picture of the man on the screen- he was making a super goofy expression, face way too close to the camera- and Changbin muttered something under his breath about the song being ruined before unplugging the device, answering the call and bringing it to his ear.
“What’s up?”
She couldn’t hear Chan on the other end, and knew the man was probably giving some kind of update, a little worried about their arrival time.
“They just got there?” Changbin asked, adjusting the phone on his ear, driving one-handed. “Okay-”
Lila bit her lip, checking the time again and the map on her phone.
They’d known this trip would take an hour longer than the rest of the group; that the subway was called express for a reason, and by car, they would just make it on time.
So- despite her efforts to avoid it- Chan had still been rather stressed when he found out their dilemma and how they’d had to solve it. But he’d been calm of course- he always was- telling them to be safe and even getting there an hour before, it would be enough prep time.
Changbin had practiced enough, he’d be fine.
“You did?”
Lila looked at Changbin again, watching the man’s eyebrows raise in slight surprise.
“Thanks dude- Yeah, I know-”
He was scowling, but she could tell the man was trying not to laugh.
“Yah! It’s not my fault she canceled-”
Lila giggled under her breath.
“Well, none of my usuals answered me this morning, and I was running out of- Yes, women want me!”
She couldn’t help the surprised laugh that slipped from her lips, and it seemed Changbin couldn’t either, chuckling as he gripped his phone, turning his head to talk loudly into the mouthpiece.
“Shut up dude- Yeah, yeah, we’ll get there on time, don’t get your panties in a twist- no you wear panties- bye- bye- ANNYEONG!”
Changbin was cracking up by the time he hit End on his phone, handing it back to Lila who was still giggling, the man shaking his head.
“God, I hate him.”
The words weren’t even remotely convincing when he was still grinning brightly, a certain fondness in his eyes Changbin and Chan always had for one another.
Like brothers.
“Sure you do,” Lila teased, plugging his phone back into the radio.
He didn’t argue, only chuckling under his breath as he wiggled his fingers on the steering wheel.
“Chan found someone to help me out before the concert,” Changbin explained.
This had been one of their biggest concerns about arriving a little later than the rest of the group; Changbin needed to feed still, and they hadn’t thought that through when he’d volunteered to take the car ride with Lila.
But Chan had told them he would figure something out, and it looked like he had.
Of course, she thought to herself with a smile.
“I guess it’s some worker at the venue. She knows us from last time and told him she would,” Changbin explained, sounding slightly surprised by this.
Lila’s eyebrows raised; she guessed the girl thought Changbin was pretty sexy if she remembered him and was willing to help out just like that.
But to be honest, she really couldn’t say she disagreed with whoever this worker girl was…
Changbin was actually really hot.
Being in the car with him for this long, Lila kept noticing things.
The tightness of his black t-shirt he so often wore, the way the sleeves slid up his arms as he gripped the steering wheel, showing her just how big his biceps were nowadays.
The casual, handsome way he drove, one hand on the wheel, the other resting at his side, fingers drumming to the beat of the music, always a little bit of a smile on his face.
The way his leather pants hugged his legs so tightly, it left very little to Lila’s imagination, her eyes always darting away when she felt the first tingles of desire in her throat.
She wasn’t sure if being enclosed in a car with Changbin for so long was affecting her.
Maybe he’d waited too long to feed and now his need was emanating in the car, like pheromones or something, but-
Lila had definitely been noticing him for most of the ride.
“So-”
She shook her head, trying to stop the creeping burn of her blush as it spread across her cheeks.
“-you think we’ll make it on time, right?”
Changbin nodded, glancing over at her for a moment before looking back at the road.
“Yeah!” he replied like it was no big deal. “Chan’s just a worry wart. We’ll make it in more than enough time as long as we don’t run into any snags. Which we won’t-”
At that exact moment, his words were drowned out by a very large POP, both of them jumping in alarm before Changbin was holding tightly to the steering wheel, the car bumping rather severely.
“Shit, shit, shit-”
Lila’s heart was hammering in her chest as she held onto the dashboard, Changbin slowing the car and pulling over onto the side of the deserted highway.
When they came to a complete stop, both of them were still frozen in their seats before staring at one another, eyes wide.
“Uh…” Lila said weakly.
“I think we just-” Changbin swallowed, letting go of the steering wheel to run a hand through his hair. “I think we just got a flat tire.”
A beat of silence followed his words before he was unbuckling his seatbelt.
“My dad taught me how to change one,” he said lowly. “I’ll just-”
And then he was climbing out of the car before Lila could stop him, suddenly coming to life from the shock.
He lifted the hatchback that was her trunk, Lila quickly yanking her seatbelt out of the way and turning around.
“Um, Changbin-”
“Geez, this thing is small, where the hell do you keep a spare tire?”
“Changbin-”
“Probably under this here, lemme just-”
“Changbin!”
The man looked over the headrest of her backseat, eyes wide with alarm.
“I, uh-” Lila smiled guiltily. “I don’t have a spare tire…”
“What?!”
“I used it like, two years ago on a roadtrip with Maddie,” she explained. “And I guess I never… got around to getting another one…”
She cringed, Changbin looking at the trunk before staring back at her.
“Okay…”
He ran another worried hand through his hair, and Lila watched him, surprised when she saw purple flash across his eyes for the briefest of seconds.
“Maybe we can just call roadside assistance.”
“Good idea,” she nodded, slightly distracted as she continued to watch him. “Do you want me to call, or-?”
“Nah,” Changbin was already pulling out his phone, unlocking the device. “My parents have a special one we use that can get to us faster-”
Lila nodded while doing some quick math in her head, wondering when exactly Changbin had fed last.
Things had been insanely busy the last few days, and to be honest, Changbin wasn’t someone they typically had to worry about.
Sure, he made jokes and probably didn’t hook up with as many girls as he claimed, but Changbin was good at being an incubus, and had yet to have an actual incident other than his sore throat issue Maddie had helped him with.
But that wasn’t a lack of feeding; he was just sick.
However, as she thought about it, she realized Changbin had been pretty pre-occupied himself.
Working with Chan and Han on some last minute songs, holding down the fort in Incheon while the two went to Busan a day early, doing some extra dance practice with Felix, helping Seungmin re-record a couple songs he’d been working on-
Holy crap
Lila’s eyes widened as she stared at her fingers, counting them slowly.
Changbin hadn’t turned a contract into them in almost five days.
“Yeah, that’ll be fine-”
Changbin was nodding, holding his phone to his ear as he paced back and forth.
“Yes, we’re safe, no one’s really around… Mhm-”
Lila got out of the car, closing the door behind her and looking around.
They were in the middle of the country it seemed, not a car in sight in either direction, flat grass on either side of the two-lane highway, some large rocks just a few feet from her car.
She glanced at the tire that’d popped, cringing when she saw the deflated rubber, her hubcap scratched and a little bent.
“Thank you so much.”
Changbin hung up the phone before reaching up to close the trunk, making his way around the car to stand beside her.
“They said they’ll be here in about an hour.”
There was a jolt in her chest at that, knowing they were already cutting it kind of close as is-
“Crap,” she said softly.
“Yeah…” Changbin pressed his lips together, glancing around before walking to one of the rocks, sitting down slowly.
Lila came to the rock just beside it, sitting down with a heavy sigh.
“I guess all we can do now is wait.”
Changbin nodded, a small, nervous grin pulling on the corners of his lips.
“So… who wants to tell Maddie and Chan?”
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lila was playing a game on her phone, feeling slightly anxious, Changbin tapping his foot beside her as he scrolled through social media.
It had been about thirty minutes since they’d called Maddie and Chan, letting them know they were both stuck on the side of the highway, waiting on roadside assistance.
Chan had been okay- albeit, still a little stressed- and Maddie had insisted they’d be alright. Lila wasn’t too worried- Maddie and Chan actually made a pretty decent team- but she still felt bad she wasn’t there to help with the chaos.
Nevertheless, there was a much more pressing issue she and Changbin needed to deal with, and neither of them were talking about it.
She glanced over at the man, watching him check the time on his phone again, still tapping his foot.
And then his eyes were changing color, purple lingering there for a few seconds before Changbin was squeezing his eyes shut, running his hand up his thigh before looking back at his phone.
Lila swallowed, worried about time and how he would be able to feed with them already running so behind…
“Changbin.”
She said his name quietly, heart pounding in her chest at her own thoughts as he turned to look at her.
“Yeah?”
The purple was there again- glowing in the darkness of the night- gaze wandering up and down her figure before he was quickly looking away, shaking his head again.
“Are you…”
She felt anxious asking, but at the same time, Lila couldn’t pretend she didn’t see it; Changbin was obviously struggling.
“I can see your eyes.”
He turned to her again- purple, brown, purple- before looking away, scowling.
“I waited too long,” he muttered, sounding annoyed. “I lost track of time with everything going on.”
Lila knew exactly what she needed to ask- to offer- but her stomach was a little twisty with nerves as she looked at Changbin, watching him swallow hard.
“Did you… want some help?”
The man turned so fast he shifted a bit on the rock, eyes wide as they glowed purple again.
“Are you serious?”
In the back of her mind, Lila thought it was honestly kind of funny, how every single one of them in the group was so surprised when she or Maddie offered to help.
They were literally hired for these exact situations.
But she didn’t laugh, only smiled softly, nodding in answer.
“I don’t know if you’re going to have time otherwise,” she admitted quietly.
And Lila knew this was true; there was no way they would make it to the venue an hour later than they were supposed to, Changbin could get ready and feed before showtime.
It was impossible.
Changbin seemed to be thinking the same, locking his phone and looking at her with a slightly nervous expression, eyes darting up and down her face.
“Um, okay…” he was nodding as well, stuffing the device in his pocket before looking around. “Where?”
“Uh…” Lila looked around too, staring at her car before turning back to him. “In there?”
She pointed to the vehicle and Changbin chuckled lightly.
“Alright.”
There wasn’t much more discussion needed, and Lila knew it was because they were both aware that this was just necessary; at this level of need, Changbin would not be able to perform tonight.
Still, Lila wasn’t sure if their conversation was awkward, or it was just a weird situation in general, but she knew she was a little tense, following behind Changbin to her car, watching him pull the passenger side door open, staring inside for a moment.
“We should probably…” he paused. “Here.”
He leaned down to slide the seat as far back as it could go. Then he was turning to her, taking a step forward, eyes darting up and down her face again.
“I think this’ll be the best way…”
His voice was low, eyes flashing purple before he was getting into the car, sitting down in the seat. Lila moved closer and neither of them needed to talk about it; she knew what he wanted.
With a small breath, Lila climbed into his lap, legs on either side of his thighs, and they adjusted together, laughing a little, Changbin having to scoot back while Lila had to adjust her knees.
But finally they were comfortable and close, Changbin’s hands caressing her arms absentmindedly.
The mood lightened a bit, their struggle to get situated seeming to ease the tension, and he grinned up at her.
“Why do you have such a small car?” he teased.
“Don’t hate on her,” Lila said, speaking much quieter than usual. “I told you; she’s gotten me through a lot…”
Changbin dragged one of his hands up to her shoulder before pushing her hair off her neck slowly, eyes following his own movements.
When he looked at her again, something in the air seemed to shift, a small dose of hot, liquid incubus powers sliding down her back as Lila felt her heart still racing in her chest.
“You’re sure about this?” he asked, cupping the back of her neck, touch surprisingly gentle.
“Yeah,” she whispered.
Changbin’s eyes were fluttering to her lips, using his hand on the back of her neck to pull her closer- carefully- Lila’s eyes slipping closed just after seeing the purple in his irises-
And then his lips were hot against hers.
Almost instantly, he was setting a rhythm, both of them turning their heads, Changbin using his free hand and sliding it up her leg.
Another dose of incubus powers, seeped just beneath her skin at his touch, the man’s fingers stuttering against her neck, Lila’s own hands wandering up his arms.
His skin was smooth and hot beneath her palms, fingers rising and falling with the defined muscle, and then she was wrapping her arms around his neck, resting them on his broad shoulders.
This new position brought them a little closer, and Changbin breathed against her lips, deepening the kiss, his hand on her leg now moving to her hip, holding her as his thumb slipped into the belt loop of her jeans.
He was losing control fast- she could feel it- more heat sliding through her veins, Changbin’s grip on her just a little bit tighter, increasing their rhythm, Lila following his lead, getting a little into it herself.
He took his hand from the back of her neck, tracing the curve of her spine, seeming to like the position she was in, groaning softly as his fingers squeezed her hip, making her gasp.
At the parting of her lips, Changbin was kissing her more completely, tongue sliding against her own, taking the air from her lungs as more pleasure was snaking its way through her entire body, Lila shuddering at the feel of it.
Changbin used his hand on her back to push her closer, roughly, Lila squeaking in surprise as her arms tightened around his neck, fingers in his hair.
He had both hands on her hips now, his grip on them turning Lila on more than she wanted to admit, the two of them turning their heads, tasting one another, heavy breaths loud and echoey in the silent car, Changbin slipping a bit on the seat.
He exhaled sharply at their new position, Lila’s hips right against his own now, and she could feel how turned on he was, fire shooting through her system at the realization.
And they hadn’t talked about what he needed- how much he needed- had only started going, Lila not knowing what level of desperate he was at-
But she knew she’d done the math- knew it had been five days as far as she or Maddie knew- and could see the way his eyes flickered purple, even just waiting outside with nothing going on.
Changbin was running on empty, and Lila knew he was going to need more than this.
They were still kissing, Changbin leading the fast, breathless rhythm, his fingers still wrapped in the belt loop of her jeans, nails digging slightly into her skin, making her eyelids flutter-
Sliding her palms down his arms again before moving to his torso, just admiring how nice he was really under that t-shirt, Lila’s fingers were moving just past the button of his pants, right over his erection she could see clearly through his zipper.
Changbin groaned automatically at that, breaking their kiss to suck in a breath, Lila’s hands a little shaky as she started sliding down the zipper.
And unlike the others, he didn’t ask questions; just watched her every move, chest heaving, Lila glancing at his handsome face and purple eyes before wrapping her hand around his dick, sliding up and down in one quick movement.
Changbin’s head fell back almost instantly, breath hitching as he continued to hold her. Lila thought he looked so hot like this- eyes closed, lips slightly parted, neck exposed- and before she knew what she was doing, she was leaning forward, kissing along his jaw.
She was stroking him at an even, steady pace, thumb swiping across his slit to tease him, Changbin moaning low in his throat, shifting a bit beneath her.
He let go of her hips, running them up her thighs and squeezing them just as she was kissing down his neck, tongue coming out to taste the salt upon his skin.
Twisting her wrist, she increased the rhythm, hearing Changbin gasp a bit before his palms were sliding up her thighs and over her ass, following the curve again, stopping at her lower back.
She ran her tongue along a small spot on his neck, feeling him shiver beneath her, more incubus powers sinking into her system like molten lava before she was taking the flesh between her teeth, sucking lightly.
Lila knew she couldn’t give him a hickey- especially not there- but she wanted to tease him, not disappointed when Changbin arched a bit off the seat.
“Ah yeah-”
She released him before she could leave a mark, squeezing her palm around his dick, Changbin’s nails scratching up her back, leaving a delicious burning behind-
He moaned loudly when she moved even faster, his hands under her shirt, holding the bare skin of her waist, gripping hard, the heat beneath his palms burning her in the best kind of way.
“Mm, Lila-”
Her name came tumbling from his lips, hushed and quick, like he’d lost himself entirely, Lila feeling a little lost herself, throat constricting at just how hot he sounded beneath her-
She was moving quicker, mouth moving down his neck, stopping where the collar of his shirt was slipping, showing just a hint of collarbone.
Biting the spot lightly, Lila felt Changbin shudder, moving into her hand as he held her hard enough to bruise-
He let out a low cry, fingers curling, and finished right into her hand, Lila working him through it, Changbin’s head digging into the back of the seat, eyes still shut in obvious pleasure-
Lila swallowed as another wave of incubus desire slid down her throat, ignoring it as she slowed the pace of her hand before stopping completely, feeling slightly out of breath.
Changbin was feeling the same it seemed, chest rising and falling quickly as he slumped back into the seat, chuckling slightly.
Lila was laughing too, feeling Changbin take his hands from beneath her shirt before he was lifting his head, finally opening his eyes.
“Thank you,” his voice was lower than usual, and he was grinning at her, eyes still switching from brown to purple.
“Yeah-” Lila said weakly. “-no problem.”
Changbin was looking at her for a moment, hands sliding down her sides and to her legs, caressing them slightly-
“Can I… return the favor?”
He raised an eyebrow at her, and while the question sounded playful, she knew he was serious, Lila’s stomach flipping at such a tempting offer-
But they both jumped when swirling, orange and yellow lights were suddenly shining in the distance, Changbin turning around, Lila leaning close to get a better look out the back window.
“Oh my god!” she exclaimed. “It’s roadside assistance!”
“Finally!” Changbin turned back to look at her, smiling apologetically. “Bad timing, though-”
“It’s fine.”
Lila was giggling, shaking her head; she was probably better off not knowing what that was like.
“This was just for you to make it through the concert.”
“Right-”
Changbin was nodding, glancing over his shoulder again as the truck got closer.
“Uh, we should probably-”
“Yeah, yeah,” Lila was scooting back on his lap, grabbing the napkins stuffed in her cup holder and wiping off her hands, Changbin hurriedly opening the door.
They quickly scrambled out of the car, laughing together, and fixing their clothes, trying to make it look as if nothing had ever happened.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changbin and Lila rushed quickly down the back hallway of the venue in Busan, pushing open the double doors that led to the makeup room, completely out of breath.
They’d gotten the tire changed quicker than they’d expected and- with a little bit of speeding on Changbin’s part- they made it with fifteen minutes to spare, beaming proudly at one another.
“Lila!”
Maddie yelled her name happily from the other side of the room, hair pulled into a messy ponytail, pen behind her ear.
“You made it!”
“Yes!” she cried, beaming and looking around.
Everyone was ready, styled, and mingling, talking amongst themselves and antsy, pacing around the area.
“Lila,” Chan came in just behind them, she and Changbin turning around with a jump as the man grinned at both of them. “Binnie. Glad you could join us.”
Even with the light-hearted joke and an easy going smile, Lila could tell he’d been worried, a slight pinch between his eyebrows.
He was ready to go on stage, wearing black pants and some kind of crop top Lila was trying very hard not to pay attention to, his tan skin glowing and beautiful against the dark color. His hair was bright blue and lifted off his forehead again- as if the stylists knew that was her favorite- and she swallowed hard, fixing her shirt and looking away before she started blushing-
“Okay, here, Changbin, we’re gonna keep the outfit you’re wearing actually-”
Maddie had come across the room now, a handful of accessories with her as she started handing them to the man.
“Kaylee already told me, I’m just sending you to her to gel up your hair, but put these on first-”
“Okay-” the man nodded, quickly putting on rings and clasping a bracelet around his wrist.
“How did you guys do?” Lila asked. “Everything go okay without us?”
“I’d say so!” Maddie said brightly, untangling the wire on Changbin’s headset and smiling at Chan. “What do you think?”
“Oh yeah,” Chan joked. “I’d say we whipped them into shape.”
They all four laughed before Maddie was handing over the earpiece.
“Put this on- please don’t lose it-”
“I’m not going to-”
“-and then meet Kaylee for hair, okay?”
“Got it,” Changbin nodded, giving her a small smile.
Maddie turned to Chan and Lila.
“Channie- see you on stage. Lila- see you soon.”
She saluted them both before turning on her heel and walking away, Lila and Chan chuckling as Changbin started fastening his earpiece.
“Bin, I’ve got Boyoung waiting for you in the back, she said she’s ready whenever you are-”
“Oh, I don’t need it anymore.”
Changbin said it casually, glancing at Lila as she grinned at him before he was slipping the wire of his earpiece beneath his shirt.
“What?”
Chan’s voice was slightly different- sharp- and Lila turned back to him, the clipboard in his hand going slack as he looked between her and Changbin.
Realizing that- of course- Lila was the only one who could’ve possibly helped Changbin when they were stranded on the highway…
He’d been smiling just a moment ago, but the expression was gone, lips pressing together, the man swallowing hard-
And then Lila saw it again- the red flash across his eyes- and her insides jumped at the sight of it, Chan quickly shaking his head, pressing his palm to his forehead.
Changbin didn’t notice a thing, still messing with his earpiece.
“Great-”
Chan’s voice was tight, the man taking a step back as he nodded at the ground.
“I’ll- I’ll see you on stage.”
And without looking at anyone, he was rushing past them and across the makeup room, Lila watching him run a quick, stressed out hand through his hair.
