***
With shaky hands, Eddie pours himself a glass of water.Â
Nightmares rarely leave him so rattled these days but this one was so horrifying he doesnât think heâll sleep more tonight.
So he sticks a cigarette between his lips, grabs a lighter, and heads outside, hoping itâll help calm him down.Â
He flicks the porch light on and thatâs when he sees itâ Steveâs car parked in his driveway.Â
âWhat the hell?âÂ
Eddie tucks the cigarette behind his ear and walks to the car where he finds Steve sleeping in the driverâs seat.
He taps on the window and Steve jerks awake, head whipping around in confusion until his eyes find Eddie, widening comically.Â
Wiping drool from his face, Steve rolls the window down. âUh hi, Eddie.â
âHey, Stevie,â Eddie says, leaning against the car.Â
âWhy are you out here?âÂ
âI could ask you the same thing. I came outside for a cigarette, and lo and behold, Steve Harrington, standing guard by my house!â Eddie chuckles amusedly. âTerribly, I might add, considering you were asleep.â
Steve sleepily rubs his eyes. âI usually donât fall asleep. Guess Iâm really tired tonight.âÂ
Waitâ
âUsually?â Eddie blinks. âYouâve done this before?âÂ
Steve bites his lip nervously. âEvery other night but I leave before anyone sees me.â
âWhy?âÂ
âI have theseâ nightmares about you dying. One night when I couldnât go back to sleep I went for a drive and ended up here, your light was on and I could see you through the window and that helped. I went back and got some more sleep. Sometimes I stay longer if the nightmare was really badââ
âOh, Steve.â
Steve grimaces. âI know itâs creepyââ
âStevie, Iâm not mad,â Eddie says softly, âI just wish you told me.â
âI didnât want you to laugh!â
âI would never! Tease you a little maybe.â
Steve scoffs, but his mouth ticks up.
âOkay, come on.â
Steve tilts his head. âWhere?â
âInside. Itâs fucking cold, youâre tired and my bed is more comfortable than your car.â
âI was just gonna head backââ
âLike hell you are.âÂ
He leads Steve to his bedroom where they both climb into bed. Eddie doesnât know if heâll be able to sleep, but heâll make sure Steve does.Â
âSorry for not telling you,â Steve whispers.
âPromise me you will next time,â Eddie nudges Steve with his foot. âSorry for haunting your dreams.â
Steve chuckles. âNot all of them are badââÂ
âNo? I get good dreams too? What do we do in those?â
Steve inexplicably blushes. âThisâ and um, hold hands. Sometimes we kiss.â
Eddieâs breath catches. âDamn, Iâm jealous of dream me.â
âYou donât need to be,â Steve whispers, looking at Eddie with molten eyes that flicker to his lips, his fingers brushing Eddieâs hand.
âChrist.â Suddenly, sleep isnât Eddieâs priority. At least not until Steve yawns. âHow about you tell me about those dreams tomorrow?â
Steve must be really tired because he doesnât protest. âOkay.â
âAnd next time you have a bad dream, you come here and Iâll turn it into a good one, okay?â
Steve sleepily agrees.Â
âGood, now sleep.â
âWhat about you?â
âItâs my turn to watch over you, sweetheart. Goodnight.â
âGoodnight, Eds.â

Love 119 [Part Two]
part of my paramedic!jungwon series. [part one]
pairing: paramedic!jungwon x doctor!reader genre: enemies at work, lovers at home. secret dating. jungwon is hot when jealous, suggestive, fluff summary: your coworkers think that you and niki look cute together while jungwon, your boyfriend is literally standing next to you and it's driving him insane. word count: 3.5k author's note: hey everyone! as promised, i'm here to serve another paramedic jungwon brainrot because it's not fair to just devour this cutesy alone. enjoy and leave some notes <3 read part 1 first and reply if you want to get tagged for the next parts!
Youâre midway through a lukewarm coffee in the hospital cafeteria when your coworker leans in, voice low and eyes gleaming with intrigue. âSoâŚâ she starts, drawing the word out slowly, âwhoâs the lucky guy?â
It takes you a second, but the question sinks in just as she tilts her head, nodding toward your neck with a smirk. Your hand instinctively rises to the spot Jungwonâs lips had claimed last night, right at the juncture of your neck and shoulderâa parting gift as youâd curled up together, something you didnât think twice about until now.
A blush surges to your cheeks. âWhat? Oh, no, thatâs⌠I scratched it too hard,â you say quickly, heat rising not only from the surprise but the memory of last nightâJungwonâs sleepy grin, the way heâd pulled you close, whispering in your ear as he pressed soft kisses down the curve of your neck.
âSure you did,â she teases, crossing her arms as her smirk widens. âYouâre going to need a better excuse than that. So⌠is it Niki?â
âWhat?â you laugh, the idea so out of the blue itâs almost comical. âNiki? Why would you even think that?â
She shrugs, the smugness on her face never faltering. âYou always have a soft spot for him. You never scold him like the rest of us. Plus, everyoneâs seen the way he hovers around you in the halls, heâs clearly smitten.â
Your eyes widen at the notion. Niki, your young, eager junior who fumbles his way through shifts and who you canât help but look after because heâs new and a little too starry-eyed for his own good? Itâs laughable. âItâs not like that,â you manage, shaking your head. âHeâs just⌠young, thatâs all.â
âMhmm,â she says with a knowing chuckle. âSure, if you say so.â
Before you can protest further, your phone vibrates. Glancing down, you find a message from Jungwon: a photo of his lunch, neatly arranged with a sweet message beneath it. âEat well, ily.â
The casual intimacy of it makes your stomach flip, and you feel an involuntary smile tugging at your lips. You quickly swipe away the notification, hoping she didnât see the smile or the faint hearts in your eyes.
The day unfolds in the usual rush of patient check-ins, chart updates, and emergency calls. You busy yourself to the point where the cafeteria conversation drifts from your mindâuntil you catch a glimpse of yourself in the break room mirror and spot the faint outline of that now-infamous hickey, the concealer having barely managed to mask it. You tug your collar higher, hoping to hide it through the rest of the shift.
The afternoon in the ER has been a blur of movement and urgency, leaving you barely a moment to breathe. Every time an ambulance pulls up, your heart skips a beat, half-hoping, half-dreading that itâll be Jungwon walking through those doors.
But each time, itâs someone else, and you return to the steady rhythm of your work, instructing Niki at your side as he follows your lead. Despite the tense environment, heâs attentive and focused, learning from you as he manages each step of the patientâs treatment with remarkable ease.
Afterward, you and Niki head back to the department office, the adrenaline settling as you both chat lightly, unwinding from the chaotic pace. As you enter, you spot Jungwon down the corridor, heading the other way with a stack of documents.
Itâs almost comical how, even amidst the bustling hospital, his presence stands out so starkly to you. For a split second, he glances your way, and the fleeting moment feels charged, pulling your attention and making it impossible to look away. But as soon as your eyes meet, you glance down, hoping no one notices how that brief connection leaves your pulse racing.
Once back at your desk, you feel your coworkersâ eyes on you, their curious glances flickering between you and Niki. You try to brush it off as nothing, settling into your usual seat, with Niki across from you. Just as youâre starting to sift through some files, Jungwonâs familiar stride enters the department office.
His easy confidence fills the room, and he greets everyone with that understated charm, heading to a nearby colleague to ask for specific documents. Youâre not even looking at him, but his presence is impossible to ignore. You focus on your papers, hoping that looking busy might steady your nerves, but the pages blur in front of you, your mind too distracted by the fact that heâs just a few steps away.
Then, just as youâre juggling a pile of documents, you accidentally knock over your iced coffee. The mostly empty cup clatters over, spilling whatâs left onto your coat. The moment the coffee splashes onto your coat, Niki and Jungwon are both at your side in an instant. Nikiâs quick to pull out a box of tissues, while Jungwon silently holds out a pristine handkerchief, a touch of annoyance already flickering in his gaze.
Caught off-guard, you instinctively reach for Nikiâs tissues, leaving Jungwon standing there with his handkerchief, his jaw tightening slightly as he watches you dab at the stain.
Your coworkers notice the scene and immediately latch onto it, their laughter filling the room. "Oh, come on, you two," one of them teases, grinning at the pair of you. "Why donât you just date already?â
Another chimes in, "Yeah, itâs obvious thereâs something going on. I mean, look how attentive Niki isâalways ready to help you out."
You wave them off, laughing it away, but the teasing only grows louder. Someone else playfully nudges Niki. "Whatâs next, bringing her coffee in the morning?"
Niki laughs, scratching the back of his head, visibly flustered. "Come on, guys, weâre just⌠coworkers," he insists, though his blush only adds fuel to the fire.
Meanwhile, you can feel Jungwonâs gaze on you, sharper and more intense than ever. His silence speaks volumes; the usual relaxed confidence he carries seems to be tinged with something harder, a jealousy that simmers just beneath the surface. It unsettles you, tugging at something guilty inside as the teasing around you grows.
Suddenly, Jungwon steps forward to you, interrupting the chatter with a clipped tone. "Enough with the tissues,â he says, leveling his gaze at you, a glint of challenge in his eyes. "Stop fussing with that coatâyouâre only making it worse. Change into something clean, or the smell will stick with you all day.â
The room falls silent, your coworkers exchanging amused glances. You roll your eyes, unwilling to let him get the last word.
âOh, thank you, Mr. Practicality. I can handle a few drops of coffee,â you retort, folding your arms and meeting his gaze with a defiant tilt of your chin.
He raises an eyebrow, a slow smirk forming on his lips.
"Right, because dealing with a coffee stain is something youâre well-prepared for," he says dryly, folding his arms to match yours. "Clearly, practicality isnât your strong suit."
You scoff, refusing to back down. "And since when did you become an expert in coffee stain management? Itâs barely noticeable, and Iâm perfectly fine with it."
Jungwonâs gaze doesnât waver, the challenge sparking between you both as he leans in just a fraction, his voice lower. "Just because youâre fine with it doesnât mean everyone else is." His eyes flick down to the stain and then back up to yours, a knowing glint in them.
Your coworkers are watching with raised brows, amused but also visibly intrigued by the tension between the two of you. "Are we interrupting something?â one of them jokes, breaking the silence. "Honestly, the way you two bicker is like a married couple."
The comment makes you blush, but Jungwon doesnât flinch. Instead, he holds your gaze, his smirk deepening. "At least one of us knows how to handle these little emergencies,â he quips, voice steady, though thereâs a hint of something raw behind his eyesâa hint of jealousy that only you can catch. The way heâs looking at you, thereâs no mistaking it: heâs anything but amused by the teasing around Niki.
But before you can respond, Niki steps forward, awkwardly placing his coat over your chair. âUm, here,â he says, clearly trying to ease the tension. âYou can wear mine for now if the coffeeâs bothering you that much.â
The room erupts into more laughter, someone nudging Niki with a grin. "See? Heâs a gentleman. Really, you two should just make it official."
Another coworker teases, "Or maybe they already have, and theyâre just not telling us."
Jungwonâs expression hardens as he watches the exchange, his eyes narrowing. His gaze flickers from Niki to you, a frustration simmering beneath his calm facade.
You feel the tension growing, an almost tangible weight of jealousy in the way his jaw clenches, his fingers tapping restlessly against his thigh.
Finally, he speaks up, cutting through the laughter with a controlled but slightly irritated tone. "Enough of the matchmaking." His gaze falls pointedly on you, something possessive flickering there, though he masks it quickly. "And you should change. That coffee smell wonât just vanish."
You narrow your eyes at him, refusing to back down. "If it bothers you so much, why donât you bring me a change of clothes yourself?"
"Thanks," he says shortly, taking the stack of paperwork with a polite nod. He turns back to you and your coworkers, offering a quick, âSee you all later. Take care, everyone.â His voice is casual, but as his gaze lingers on you for a fraction of a second longer, you feel the weight of everything left unsaid.
With that, Jungwon strides toward the door, his usual self-assured calm back in place. You watch him leave, but just as he reaches the exit, your phone buzzes in your hand. You glance down, your pulse quickening as you read the message from him:
âI have something you can change into in the back of the car.â
Itâs simple, yet thereâs something about it that makes your stomach flip. You glance up just in time to catch Jungwonâs silhouette disappearing down the hallway, feeling the tension of the moment linger in the air long after heâs gone.
The rest of your shift rolls by with its usual demands, and you brush off the incident from earlier, deciding against getting the change of clothes Jungwon offered. By the time you finally clock out, the sun is setting, casting a warm glow over the nearly empty parking lot. Just as you step out of the hospital doors, Jungwonâs car pulls up in front of the exit.
You feel a small smile tugging at your lips as you walk over and slip into the passenger seat. âHey,â you greet him, but his focus remains straight ahead, his hands firm on the wheel, his paramedic uniform clinging to his form. The sight of him in that navy blue uniform, complete with the badge and patches, usually makes your heart race, but today his expression is unreadable. A flicker of surprise hits you. Jungwon, who is usually quick with a playful remark, doesnât even turn his head as you settle in, leaving you feeling a bit deflated.
You tilt your head, watching him closely, noticing the slightest crease of annoyance in his brow. With a slight pout, you try breaking the ice, âSo, how was your day?â
He answers, but his tone is clipped, barely more than a few words. "Busy. The usual."
You blink, feeling a hint of tension in the air. Normally, heâd be cracking jokes or filling the car with easy chatter, but now heâs focused on the road with a seriousness that feels almost uncharacteristic.
Leaning back in your seat, you give him a sideways glance. âIs this about the clothes?â you finally ask, crossing your arms as you look at him. âAre you upset I didnât change into them?â
A quick denial. âNo,â he says, a bit too fast, but still refusing to look your way.
You canât help but smile a little, noticing his hands gripping the wheel tighter than usual. âUh-huh. Doesnât sound like youâre not upset,â you tease, leaning forward to get a better look at his face.
âIâm not upset,â he repeats, but heâs biting his lip, eyes fixed stubbornly ahead as if heâs hyper-focused on the road. His brow furrows, and he lets out a soft sigh.
âCome on, Jungwon, itâs cute when you sulk,â you say, your smile widening at the way his jaw clenches ever so slightly, revealing his irritation in the most subtle way.
This finally gets a reaction. He glances at you, his eyes narrowing just a little. âIâm not sulking,â he mumbles, but the denial lacks its usual conviction.
âYou look pretty sulky to me,â you murmur, enjoying the rare moment of catching him off guard.
Just then, the car comes to a stop at a red light, and you glance over to find him holding a long breath, his expression somewhere between frustration and fondness. The tension in the air shifts slightly as he turns his gaze towards you, and in that moment, you feel the familiar flutter of butterflies in your stomach.
Without breaking eye contact, he places his right hand gently on your lap, rubbing small circles with his thumb. The warmth of his touch sends a jolt of electricity through you, igniting that familiar spark between you two. Itâs a simple gesture, yet it feels so intimate, especially with the way heâs staring at you as if heâs trying to convey everything he canât say out loud.
He resumes driving as the light turns green, keeping his eyes fixed on the road ahead, but his voice softens, a hint of vulnerability slipping through the usual bravado. âIâm not upset,â he assures you, though the sincerity behind his words hints at something deeper, something heâs wrestling with beneath the surface.
You canât help but smile at him, the weight of his earlier mood lifting slightly. âThen whatâs with the whole silent treatment? You know you can just tell me, right?â
Jungwon shakes his head, a faint smile creeping onto his face despite his mood.
âItâs more complicated than that,â he says, his voice maintaining a lightness thatâs undercut by an earnest edge. âI donât want to be the guy who gets all worked up over people assuming you and Niki are a thing.â
You bite your lip, the realization sinking in that his jealousy is more about their perceptions than the spilled coffee earlier.
âWell, Iâm definitely not dating Niki,â you reply softly, trying to ease his tension. âHeâs just a good coworker. You know that.â
He glances at you briefly, the corner of his mouth twitching in a smile as he focuses back on the road.
âGood,â he mutters, his hand still gently rubbing your thigh, sending tingles coursing through you. The intimacy of the gesture makes your heart race.
He passes another intersection and accelerates, the car moving smoothly through the streets.
âBut you know,â you continue, trying to keep the mood light, âif you were just a little quicker with your offer, I wouldnât have to deal with all this teasing.â
Jungwon lets out a soft chuckle, the tension in the car easing slightly. âI thought I was quick enough,â he says, a playful tone returning to his voice. âHow was I supposed to know youâd be so stubborn?â
âStubborn? Me? Never,â you tease, rolling your eyes dramatically.
He shakes his head with a laugh, his grip tightening slightly on your thigh, a subtle reminder of the unspoken bond between you two. As he navigates the streets, the silence stretches comfortably, punctuated only by the soft hum of the engine and the occasional sound of traffic.
âHey, you should know,â you add after a moment, âif you want to make sure Iâm not wearing Nikiâs clothes, maybe you should just⌠keep me in yours.â
Jungwon raises an eyebrow, a teasing glint in his eyes. âIs that your way of saying you want me to dress you?â
âMaybe,â you reply coyly, biting your lip again, the playful banter making you feel bold.
He laughs, shaking his head as he pulls into a quiet parking lot. âYou really know how to make me feel like Iâm the jealous one, huh?â
âJust speaking the truth,â you say, leaning back into the seat, enjoying the rhythm of the moment.
As he turns off the engine, the atmosphere shifts slightly, the playful banter fading into a more intimate silence. Jungwon finally meets your gaze, his expression earnest. âJust so you know, itâs not about Niki. I justâŚâ he trails off, searching for the right words. âI want to be the one you lean on, the one you trust.â
Your heart swells at his confession, a warmth spreading through you. âYou are, Jungwon. Youâre the one I always want to lean on.â
He smiles, a genuine light returning to his eyes, and in that moment, everything feels right.
When you arrive at your apartment, Jungwon opens the door for you, the familiar scent of your space washing over you. As soon as you step inside, he follows closely behind, and before you can even set your bag down, he closes the door and turns to face you.
In an instant, the air between you shifts. Jungwon steps forward, his hands gripping your waist as he pulls you closer. You barely have time to react before he captures your lips with his in a deep, passionate kiss that takes your breath away. The world outside fades away, leaving just the two of you and the electric tension that crackles in the air.
His lips move against yours with a fervor that surprises you, and you feel your heart racing, responding instinctively as you wrap your arms around his neck, pulling him closer. He deepens the kiss, his mouth coaxing yours open as he explores the sweetness of your taste. Itâs intoxicating, and you lose yourself in the moment, your worries and doubts melting away.
In the midst of the kiss, he breaks away for just a moment, breathless and looking down at you with those soft eyes. âI can still smell the coffee,â he murmurs, his voice husky with desire, a playful smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth.
You giggle, feeling heat rise to your cheeks, the reminder of the earlier incident making you giddy. âWell, I didnât exactly plan for that to happen,â you reply, your voice teasing but breathless.
âMaybe I should get you a proper change of clothes next time,â he quips, his eyes sparkling with mischief. But then he adds, more seriously, âYou should probably take those off; the smell will cling to you.â
His suggestion sends a thrill through you, and you find yourself biting your lip in excitement. âAre you sure thatâs the only reason you want me to take them off?â you tease, your heart racing as you lean closer, feeling the warmth radiating from him.
He chuckles softly, but thereâs a glint of something deeper in his eyes. âOkay, maybe itâs a little selfish,â he admits, his breath ghosting over your skin as he moves in even closer.
With a playful grin, you decide to indulge him. âFine, but only if you do too,â you say, your fingers finding the buttons of his uniform. You start to unbutton it, your hands trembling slightly with anticipation. Each button that comes undone reveals more of his toned physique, and your breath hitches as you take in the sight of him.
As your fingers glide over the fabric, Jungwon watches you, his expression a mixture of desire and admiration. âYou know, this might be the best idea youâve ever had,â he murmurs, his voice low and enticing.
You finally push the uniform off his shoulders, letting it fall to the floor. In that moment, the playful atmosphere shifts into something more intimate. He captures your lips again, and you feel the heat between you both intensify as you pull away the last barriers that had been keeping you apart.
Just when you think it can't get any more intense, he pulls back slightly, his forehead resting against yours, both of you gasping for air. âIâve wanted to do that all day,â he admits, his breath mingling with yours, creating a palpable tension that thrums in the air.
âWhy didnât you?â you ask, your voice teasing yet filled with warmth.
âYou know I canât let everyone find out Iâm dating the hottest doctor in the hospital, or elseâŚâ he argues, a playful grin breaking through his earlier seriousness.
âOh, please,â you bite back with a smirk, playfully nudging him. âLike they wouldnât notice that the âsexiest and charming paramedicâ is completely smitten.â
With a smile that could light up the room, you lean in for another kiss, feeling the world around you fade away once again as you get lost in him.

Warnings: Mild spoilers for Across The Spiderverse, one (1) curse word, angst, unrequited love.
word count: 1, 545
[ đŚđđ˘đ§ đŚđđŹđđđŤđĽđ˘đŹđ ]
In every other universe, Gwen Stacy falls for Spiderman.
âRight,â You snort, closing the comic book in your hands and placing it back into the pile on Milesâs bed. He glances up from the comic heâs reading, raising a brow at your sceptical expression.Â
âWhat?â He hums in amusement, casually grabbing a candy bar from his pocket and tossing it to you. It almost slips from your fingers, but you manage to catch it just in time with a playful eye roll.
âWhatâs so bad about Gwen Stacy ending up with Spiderman, anyway?âÂ
âItâs just,â you hesitate. Would he think itâs stupid? âItâs unrealistic. I mean, itâs nice that Spiderman has a predestined love, but it doesnât mean that it has to go by the book, yâknow? Itâs his life. Maybe thereâs a really rude and narcissistic Gwen out there in another universe.â
âW-well, what if there isnât? Iâm pretty sure that there are good Gwens out there.â You look at him curiously, wondering whatâs got him so defensive.Â
âWhatâs got your undies in a twist?â You chuckle at his earlier words, the tautness in his voice a surprise. Leaning back against the wall next to his bed, you kick your feet up to rest next to his arm, watching him frown and shove you off playfully.
âItâs nothing.â He tries to laugh it off, but the hint of nervousness in his eyes suggests otherwise. You narrow your eyes at him, watching him rub the back of his neck as beads of sweat form on his hand.Â
Heâs lying. Why?
âOkay,â You choose to say instead, letting him be as you turn away. Your heartstrings tug slightly at the wistful look in his eyes when he stares at the front cover of the comic you were reading earlier, the illustration of Gwen Stacy clear as day.
You know heâs hiding something from you, something big. Ever since last month, heâd been cancelling hangouts and study sessions, and heâs always coming up with new excuses to avoid hanging out with you. During the few times you get to meet him, Miles always has a hint of nostalgia in his words, a glint of longing in his eyes as if heâd rather be with other people.
It hurts.Â
And it hurts even more when you planned to confess to him last week on the rooftop, only for him to show up hours late. He called you in a panic, apologies spilling past his lips before you promised you werenât mad.Â
On the other end of the phone, however, you throw away the letter youâd so painstakingly written for him, just for that day. All the words prepared were useless, fading into the corner of your mind when you heard his voice on the phone.Â
âItâs fine,â You promised him countless times, hearing nothing but hesitance in his words when he checked to make sure it really was fine. Since then, you decided to squash down your confession, constantly procrastinating the day you tell him how you really feel.
âWhat about tomorrowâs bio test? You studied?â You ask, turning your head to see him freeze at the mention of the test he most definitely hasnât studied for. He smiles sheepishly, silently pleading for you to share your notes with him.Â
âYou and me against the world, right?â He grins, holding out his hand for a fist bump as he sits on his bed from his lazy position.Â
âRight,â You chuckle, grabbing the binder and notebook from your bag and handing it to him. You watch him flip through the pages fondly, eyes tracing the outline of his face and your gaze lingering on his lips.
You and him against the world.
It's always been you two for as long as you can remember. From the day you met in kindergarten to now, even as he stands in front of you in his Spiderman suit.Â
You let out a disbelieving laugh, sitting down on your bed. Shocked doesn't even begin to describe how you're feeling right now. You come home from school and decide to drop by Milesâs apartment, waiting in his room with your feet propped onto his desk, only to see motherfucking Spiderman crawl into the room and pull off his mask to reveal your childhood friend (and the boy youâre in love with).
Miles had been keeping such a huge secret from you this whole time. You're ready to punch him - to scold him even, for not telling you earlier. Heâs your best friend, but apparently, he doesn't feel the same way if heâs been hiding this from you. Arenât you trustworthy enough?Â
Arenât you good enough?
His eyes are wide and filled with pure fear, hands trembling as he hugs himself, bracing his emotions for when you finally get mad. Your breaths are shaky, eyes flitting between him and the mask he holds in his hands. Flickers of anger begin to sink in, the claws of self-doubt sinking into your chest.
But a moment of clarity hits you. Miles didn't need a reaction right now. He needs you. He needs his best friend.
"Okay. Okay," You repeat through a slow exhale, looking up at him with a nod of acceptance. You simply gesture for him to sit down next to you. He does so without a word, automatically leaning his head on your shoulder like he always does when he's nervous and scared.
"You're not mad?" He asks softly. You shake your head, bringing his hand up to plant a soft kiss on his knuckles, ignoring the slight flutter in your chest as your lips graze against the skin.
To him, the action meant little, a comforting gesture used between you both since you were kids.
But to you, it means everything else. You try to push down the way your heart speeds up when his breaths brush against the exposed skin of your shoulders, hoping he wonât look up and see your gaze filled with pure love and concern for him.
Instead, you stare straight ahead at the window that overlooks the next few apartment buildings. The sunset is beautiful, auburn orange bathing the graffiti-covered concrete in a warm glow that has you wishing this isnât the situation youâre in now. He tucks his head under yours, and your cheek presses against his hair, watching the sunset together.Â
"I'm not mad," You promise in a soft sigh, feeling him finally relax under you. He mumbles out thanks, and you merely grin, pressing another casual peck on his hand, the both of you falling silent after.
And for once in the five years that you've grown to love him more than he'd ever know, this time, you're not lying.Â
â â â â âÂ
It's the day of the celebration, a joyous occasion meant to act as a hallmark for Mr Moralesâs promotion.
But Miles is nowhere to be found. After returning from god knows where he disappeared, he returns with a girl.
Gwanda is her name. You stare at the blonde hair, the strawberry-coloured tips catching your eyes. The colour looks pretty on her. Her nervous disposition only makes you slightly suspicious, watching her leave from a short distance away after Mrs Morales approaches them.
But judging from the look in Miles's eyes after his mom talks to him, you know.
The way he looks at her is different. He's never had such fondness in his gaze with you, much less watching you walk away with such regret. So you walk to him and hand him your drink which he takes a sip from, and pat his shoulder with a reassuring smile.
"Go."Â
"You sure?"
"I'll be fine here. Besides, Iâm sure I can handle a few hours of distracting your dad." You chuckle with a roll of your eyes, pushing down the pained pang in your heart at his bright smile. Every fibre of your being screams at you to grab onto his arm, to never let go. They scream at you to part your lips and let the words festering in your heart finally spill out.
But even as your eyes linger on him with a hollow grin, he doesnât notice.
And thatâs the difference.
"Thanks. Hey, you and me against the world, right?" Miles grins, placing a soft peck on your forehead. You bat him away with a faint smile, struggling to keep the tears from forming in your eyes. If he didnât leave in the next ten seconds, youâre not sure you can no longer hold back your choked hiccups.
"Just come back to me, okay?"Â
He nods, a silent promise lingering in the air between you both. To him, it's a promise of return, to come back safe.
To you, it's a promise filled with desperation, wanting nothing more than for your Miles to come back to you. For your Miles to see you in the same light he views Gwanda in. To see you the way he sees her.Â
Maybe he was right all along. Maybe in every other universe, Gwen Stacy falls for Spiderman.
You watch him leave with an excited grin on his lips, taking a sip from your cup and wishing that the fizzy liquid could drown your sorrows instead.
And in every other universe, you wish it were you.

CHARM
PAIRING: Jackson! Ellie x reader
CW: request. fluff. outbreak|tlou universe. me trying a new writing style lol
SUMMARY: in between cuddles ellie realizes you're ticklish
DON'T BUY TLOU | PALESTINE MP PALESTINE LINKS | DAILY CLICK
TAGLIST
It had been a long day, more exhausting than anticipated. It wasn't supposed to end this way, but how could anyone resist those pleading puppy eyes and the promise of another movie night? Ellieâs enthusiasm for cozy cuddles and her fascinating, albeit quirky, observations about filmsâfacts she seemed to notice with every viewing, as if she were discovering them anewâwas irresistible.
The quiet confines of Ellieâs room offered sanctuary from the fatigue of the day. The garage she called home transformed into a personal haven, adorned with an eclectic mix of art, space-themed decor, and comic book tokens. Christmas lights, strung haphazardly around the room, twinkled like distant stars, adding a warm, festive glow to the space. Music played softly in the backgroundâa familiar tune from Ellieâs favorite artist and your favorte song to find balance. It always seemed to soothe both.
You were curled up on the couch, a tangled mess of limbs beneath a cozy blanket. The soft, ethereal light creating an intimate and lazy atmosphere. These moments, with their comforting simplicity, were what kept both of you going through the week.
"So," Ellieâs fingers began to trace lazy patterns on your arm, each touch sending a soothing shiver through you. "How was your day?" Her voice, soft and comforting, drew you from your thoughts. You turned to meet her eyes, which were already focused on you with a lazy smile.
"It was okay," you murmured, your voice trailing off into a whisper. "This new horse... itâs exhausting." You could hear Ellieâs chuckle, the sound brightening her face and accentuating the pretty freckles that danced across her cheeks.
"Donât laugh," you commanded playfully, though your own laughter betrayed you. Your gaze drifted from her eyes to the warmth of her hands around your stomach.
You instinctively reached for her fingers, intertwining them with yours. You played with the softness of her knuckles, the warmth of her touch a perfect contrast to the cool evening air.
"tired from patrol, hmm?" Ellieâs tattooed arm slipped from your grasp, her fingers caressing beneath the soft cotton of your clothes and over the skin of your stomach. the contact sending a gentle thrill through you.
You hummed in response, a weak âmhmâ as you shifted, seeking more space between your legs. Your body ached for her scent, her warmth, the comforting presence that was uniquely Ellie.
âI gotchuâ,â she said, her voice holding a playful edge that you both loved. The tickling sensation began as a light, fuzzy feeling, spreading a delightful numbness across your stomach. You instinctively curled up, her fingers dancing across your ribs, sending you into a fit of uncontrollable laughter.
âEllie, no!â you squealed, laughter bubbling uncontrollably from your lips. âStop! I canât breathe!â you managed to gasp between fits of giggles.
Ellie, caught in the infectious joy of the moment, finally relented. Her laughter mingled with yours as she leaned down, her face close to yours. âWhat?â she asked, her voice dripping with playful intent. You tried to respond, but your words were lost in the silly movements of your arms, desperately holding on to her. âWhat? What?â Her voice echoed in your ears, interspersed with the sweet sound of your shared laughter. âStop!â
She complied, her hands coming to rest gently on your waist, giving you one last tickle as you caught your breath. The disapproving look you gave her was tempered with a smile that couldnât quite hide your affection.
You both lay there, your bodies pressed close together, catching your breath. Her freckles, now flushed with a soft pink, revealed her own recovery from the tickling. âThatâsâdonât do that. Like, ever,â you scolded gently, though there was no real malice in your words.
Ellie leaned in, her lips brushing against yours in a gentle, lingering kiss. âForgive me?â she whispered against your lips, her voice carrying a playful undertone.
You nodded, wrapping your arms around her and pulling her closer. The two of you settled back into the couch, the warmth of your love and the lingering laughter making the space between you even more cozy.
âI love you,â she whispered, her lips brushing against yours once more.
"I love you too,â you replied, your voice soft and sincere.
The tickling was soon forgotten, replaced by the enveloping warmth of her love and the softness of her kisses. You pulled her closer, savoring the moment and the profound comfort of being together.

A while ago, I made a post going into parts of the missable Sae Palace arc text messages, such as these:
However, that post neglected to include a full transcript. I have since transcribed all of these texts, which occur on 10/30, 11/3, 11/7, and 11/11. You must not infiltrate Sae's Palace until after these dates in order to get these.
Transcripts below the cut! Crossposted to the P5 sub.
The first of these texts takes place on 10/30. You will miss this text if you infiltrate the Palace on the first available day.
--
Ryuji: Yo, Akechi.
Akechi: What is it?
Ryuji: You got any idea who the true culprit might be?
Futaba: Oh yeah! You said you saw a masked guy, right?
Haru: I wanted to ask about that too.
Futaba: Did you really see him? The masked guy's gotta be the true culprit, right?
Akechi: If this so-called true culprit is acting alone, then there can be no mistake about it.
Futaba: I see.
Yusuke: The next question is, who is that masked man?
Akechi: Unfortunately, I do not know that much.
Futaba: Ugh, you're useless.
Akechi: That is quite harsh.
Futaba: Aw, you're making me blush!
Ann: That wasn't a compliment...
Akechi: At this point, I have yet to even grasp any clues. But once this is dealt with, I will surely capture him. I promise you that.
We'll be counting on you.
Akechi: Perfect. Leave it to me. It may sound somewhat odd for me to say this, but I am an exceptional detective. I assure you, I will catch this culprit. Look forward to it.
Can you do it?
Akechi: Hm? Do you not trust me?
[The rest plays out the same as the other option.]
--
What's funny about this exchange is how the Thieves know Akechi's deal and are just playing along. It makes some of the reactions (especially from Haru and Futaba) read as comically passive aggressive. However, the more interesting texts start coming on 11/03, 11/07, and 11/11.
Starting with 11/03.
--
Ryuji: Goddamit. People're acting like we were the ones who killed 'em.
Yusuke: I have even heard them say we are assassins hired to deal with psychotic breakdown victims.
Ann: Ugh, that's obviously not what we're trying to do.
Akechi: This must be part of the plan to shift blame onto the Phantom Thieves. After all, the true culprit is the one killing the people on that ranking list.
This is unforgivable
Akechi: Indeed. I have no intentions of letting this slide.
This is total BS
Akechi: But that is the truth for the general public at the moment.
[Both lead to...]
Futaba: Man, this culprit guy really won't let up. I don't remember ever doing anything that'd make someone hate us THIS much.
Haru: He used my father as well...
Akechi: I cannot fathom what his motive may be... We will just have to capture and interrogate him.
Makoto: But before that, we need to change my sister's heart. That's our first step toward stopping him.
Akechi: I must agree. The true culprit will be caught, but before that we must deal with Sae-san. If ranking is being taken into consideration, perhaps I will be targeted too... Just kidding.
--
This tells us that Shido is deliberately having Akechi target high ranking targets on the PhanSite in order to terrify the public with abhorrent acts of violence, much like he did in April. It's a way to make people feel scared and more reliant on Shido to be the change that Japan needs. But if you secure the treasure as quickly as possible, you will miss this added information that really deepens how cruel he truly is by ordering hits just to paint a convenient narrative.
And this is definitely Shido's idea, because on 11/7 we get this gem...
--
Haru: Do you think the culprit could be someone at our school?
Yusuke: That seems somewhat sudden.
Haru: I mean, didn't they find a calling card in Principal Kobayakawa's office? I thought you had suggested that idea yourself, Yusuke.
Yusuke: That was just a generalization.
Haru: But if Mako-chan noticed what was going on with you guys, somebody else might have too.
Ann: So you think that "somebody else" is trying to frame us? What's gotten into you so suddenly?
Haru: Nothing has gotten into me. I just think there's a chance the culprit is related to Shujin...
You might be right. / There's no way.
[Both get the same response:]
Yusuke: What is all of this about? It's too soon to be jumping to conclusions like this.
Haru: Well, I was hoping to hear a professional opinion on the matter... What are your thoughts, Akechi-kun?
Akechi: The possibility is not zero, but it does seem a bit unlikely.
Haru: Why do you ask?
Akechi: A normal person would never do such a thing. They would have no reason to callously murder your principal.
Haru: And what if they weren't normal?
Akechi: Are you implying they kill for the sheer pleasure of it?
Haru: No, not like that. What I mean is, you need certain special abilities to navigate through that world, yes?
Akechi: Ah, so you're saying the culprit is a Persona-user.
Haru: Yes.
Akehci: I see... How perceptive. Truthfully, I was considering that possibility myself. But it is difficult to think they have ties to Shujin Academy.
Haru: Why?
Akechi: There would be no motive for them to carry out such a cruel plot. Clearly our culprit is acting behind the scenes to accomplish some grand objective. He likely has accomplices. It is even possible that he is being controlled by someone.
Makoto: Controlled? By whom?
Akechi: If I knew that, I do not think we would be in this much trouble.
Haru: I see... So even someone like you doesn't know, Akechi-kun.
Futaba: Looks like our genius detective's not so much of a genius after all.
Akechi: Haha, harsh as always. If there is one thing I know, it is that the culprit behind all of this is extremely shrewd. But don't worry. I will catch him, no matter what it takes.
I'm looking forward to that. / I wonder if you can do it.
Akechi: More importantly, we need to focus on changing Sae-san's heart for the time being. If we cannot do that, everything we have done will be for naught. We absolutely must succeed here.
--
There is so much to unpack here. By far, it's my favorite of these texts because of the light it sheds on Akechi's motivations and intentions. First, we have Haru pressing the subject. She clearly wants to squeeze answers out of Akechi. She's subtly putting him on the spot because she knows...
But Akechi lets slip that no, actually, he doesn't do this for pleasure. That actually, he is being controlled and that the true mastermind is someone shrewd that he intends to take down. Amidst all of Akechi's lies and platitudes during this part of the story, we see a crack in his perfectly prepared mask. In a way, this is the most honest we've seen Akechi outside of his Royal confidant and on 8/28 and 9/3. In a way, he's sharing little slivers of himself with the rest of the team (either begrudgingly or for reasons he doesn't fully understand) the way he already has with Joker.
And it actually explains a few things that happen later. Namely, the way he downplays the need to kill the other Phantom Thieves until after the election (keep in mind, he does intend to knock Shido down from his pedestal) as well as treating Morgana as "just a cat." Obviously, this doesn't absolve Akechi of his guilt, but it does make it clear that he isn't as remorseless as a lot of people believe, even if no amount of sunk cost fallacy is gonna undo the damage he's done.
Hell, when combined with his lamentation that he didn't meet Joker years ago in the engine room and his reaction to Morgana explaining changes of heart, these texts further solidify that his feelings toward both Joker and the Thieves are extremely complex and absurdly messy.
Plus we get Haru and Futaba both taking shots at him, which is fun and also extremely deserved. :p
Moving on, there's one final missable November text on 11/11. It goes as follows:
--
Akechi: So, about the investigation... It seems they have no evidence that can truly be called as such.
Ryuji: Well duh.
Akechi: However, it seems they have no intentions of changing their plans.
Ann: They're going to investigate at both Shujin Academy and Leblanc, right?
Akechi: Indeed.
Makoto: Hm. I can understand Shujin... But why Leblanc?
Akechi: The key is Wakaba Isshiki.
Futaba: Is it cause of my mom's research?
Akechi: Correct. Her study of cognitive psience is closely connected to this case. Of that, there can be no doubt.
Futaba: Then this guy's really the mastermind behind all of this?
Akechi: That would be the case. There can be no mistake... The one who erased cognitive psience from this world is surely the culprit behind everything.
Makoto: And getting rid of the research was the only way they could use its powers?
Akechi: How perceptive of you. Yes, that is the only logical conclusion. Both Sae-san and I were searching for clues about that research. But just as we were about to deepen our investigation, this commotion began. And to make things even more troublesome... There was only one person with strong connections to both Shujin Academy and Leblanc. And that person turned out to be the leader of the Phantom Thieves.
Yusuke: So the culprit had calculated all of this in advance?
Akechi: Heavens no. That would be impossible. This was a miracle created by the coinciding of multiple chance situations.
Ryuji: Dude, you hear that? He says you got miraculously bad luck. Don't that make you feel good?
I'm so lucky.
Ryuji: Y'know, shitty luck is still luck.
That's not funny.
Ryuji: C'mon, you gotta be able to laugh it off at this point.
Haru: Yes, your luck really is impressive.
Akechi: At any rate, that's the current state of things. And that's why we must obstruct the investigation at all costs.
Makoto: Yes, that's our intention.
--
Once again, we have Akechi laying it on thick that Shido is the one behind everything, as he was the one who ordered the hit on Wakaba, stole her research, and had his own research team develop it further. And keep in mind, Shido's own words, first on 11/21...
"Those who get in the way must be eliminated at timesâthat's the correct way to use the Metaverse."
And later, his Shadow states, "Moreover, it was thanks to me that Akechi was able to properly use his power to begin with."
So we know that even the idea of inducing mental shutdowns came from him, even if Akechi offered his Metaverse abilities as part of his stupid revenge plan.
What this shows is Akechi wants to hint that there is this bigger puppet master, even if he's going to betray the Thieves, and this is actually really consistent with his Royal confidant. In Rank 7, he uses a billiard games as a metaphor for the upcoming betrayal kill and gives Joker an out, even if he's much happier if you assert your rivalry instead. This makes his warnings about the connections to Wakaba carry a very similar feeling, and since these texts were in Vanilla, it's likely that the Royal confidant built on this foundation.
But then there's the fact that the Thieves are fully in the know that Akechi is going to betray them, so it recontextualizes all these texts where they are genuinely trying to squeeze as much info out of him as they can and likely having to restrain themselves hard (especially Futaba and Haru).
And all of this you will never see unless you delay the infiltration until 11/12. So, the next time you play Persona 5 Royal, it might be worthwhile to delay Sae's Palace to see these in-game! They're really cool and it's a shame they aren't scripted events.

little by little. (opla!sanji x fem!reader)
synopsis: a series of events that transpire throughout your time mentoring sanji into a proper waiter, per zeffâs request.
word count: 5.3k
warnings: cursing, smoking, some direct dialogue from opla, zoro wants u but he canât have uuu, a pitiful attempt at enemies to lovers, this is the plate technique i was referencing btw
the slicing, stirring, and sizzling of the kitchen fades into background noise compared to the two thick accents bickering back and forth. to no oneâs surprise, a disagreement between sanji and zeffâs has escalated into another one of their infamous arguments. it was such a common occurrence that almost everyone working at the baratie knew to brace themselves for a yelling match at least once day.
youâre no different as you return to the kitchen from waiting tables and walk right past the pair without so much as a glance their way. instead, you make a beeline for pattyâs cooking station. unamused, you ask, âtheyâre back at it again?â
patty slings a towel over his shoulder as he hands you table 7âs orders. âi told sanji not to put that original dish of his on the menu. he called it a true bluefin whatever the hell.â
âsounds promising,â you joke, collecting the plates from him.
âtell that to zeff,â he replies flatly. âhe might even make it tomorrowâs special.â
âdammit zeff!â sanji exclaims, interrupting you and pattyâs conversation. âif i gotta sling one more prime rib medium-well, iâm going to drop dead of boredom, you old shitbag!â
âitâs what we serve,â retaliates the older chef.
âitâs an insult to the meat!â
âoh, you donât like cooking our menu? fine. âcause iâll be more than delighted to give you some other work elsewhere. in fact, you are off the line. youâre going to get out there and wait tables!â
sanjiâs jaw clenches at having been demoted but he removes his chef apron regardless. as often as the two of them bickered, he could never refuse such direct orders from zeff. he was the owner and founder of baratie â that was something to be respected.
all of a sudden, zeff calls your name, causing you to abruptly set down the dishes in your hands. what did you have to do with any of this? the older chef beckons you closer with a curled finger and it seems as if every pair of eyes in the kitchen shifts to you. except for sanjiâs, who is too busy staring up at the ceiling as if heâs begging a higher power for self-restraint.
itâs ironic how after putting so much effort into being the best waitress possible, you end up in the middle of confrontation â something you went out of your way to avoid. still, your body reacts faster than your brain and you comply, scurrying over to where zeff and sanji stand.
âfrom here on out, you keep a close eye on him for me.â zeff clasps a large hand on sanjiâs shoulder with such force that it sends the younger jolting forward. âi donât wanna catch him slithering his way back into the kitchen unless itâs to grab orders, ya got it?â
you blink. âyes, chef.â
your response earns you a tight-lipped smile, a rarely seen gesture from zeff. as suddenly as it appeared, itâs gone, replaced by a hardened gaze as he turns back to sanji. âif weâre lucky enough, some of your obedience might rub off on this little eggplant.â
the comment earns him an eye roll from the waiter in question, who seems less than thrilled with this new arrangement. âthis is such bullshit, old man. you really think she can teach me anything?â
you go to defend yourself, slightly offended by his offhand comment. âhey, iââ
before you can get another word out, sanji interjects, offering you a glance. âno offense, iâm sure youâre lovelyââ the moment he takes a good look at you, he trails off. itâs almost comical how quickly his demeanor changes, that signature smirk of his creeping onto his lips. âwith an even lovelier face to match.â
you narrow your eyes at him, not charmed by the sudden switch in attitude. âyouâre shameless.â
he smiles. âso iâve been told.â
âweâll need to work on that.â
his grin widens, if that was even possible. âi look forward to it.â
his smile is a little too mischievous for your liking; you sigh. âcanât say the same.â
ignoring your remark, he muses, âyou know, itâs a shame that working under you is supposed to be a punishment. a pretty face like yours is more of a reward, if you ask me.â
âwho said anything about a punishment?â
âwell, what else would you call this?â he chuckles dryly. âinstead of cooking, iâm expected to wait on idiots who canât tell a rosĂŠ prosecco from a cheval blanc. and now iâm being treated like i need a babysitter.â
you fold your arms. âthatâs because you do need a babysitter. besides, zeff calls the shots so thereâs no use complaining.â
âof course youâd say that.â
âwhatâs that supposed to mean?â
he smirks. âi can already tell youâre a professional rule follower. a lap dog, if you will.â
âif you were too, we wouldnât even be here.â you decide to take it even further, returning his bluntness. âmaybe itâd be easier if that ego of yours wasnât so inflated.â
âdamn.â he places a hand over his heart as if youâve wounded him. âif weâre talking about flaws, though, this might be a good time to mention the stick up your ass.â
âwhat? i donâtââ you take a deep breath. âlisten, zeff is counting on me to turn you into a functional waiter. that means we have to tolerate each other for the time being. the sooner we do that, the sooner we go our separate ways. got it?â
he flashes you his teeth. âyes, maâam.â
âgreat. to start, youâre going to wait tables with me.â with that, you walk back to pattyâs station.
sanji scampers behind you, smile fading. âyouâre joking.â
you shrug, opting to let your silence answer for you.
he continues, âyouâre not even going to let me suffer through this alone? iâve gotta be glued to your hip as well?â
âwhatâs the matter? i thought i was lovely,â you tease him, feigning sorrow. your faux pout contradicts the way you harshly shove two steaming plates his way.
ânot when youâre bossing me around.â he hesitantly takes the dishes you hand him. âi mean, canât you just let me off the hook? iâll hide in the supply closet âtil our shiftâs over.â
âgood one.â
WEEK ONE.
âwelcome to baratie, iâll be your waitress this afternoon. what can i get started for you?â you ask, ready to jot down the tableâs orders on your notepad. âi recommend todayâs specialââ
an arm digging into your ribs cuts you off. the action is forceful enough to jolt you but light enough not to hurt. you glare at the culprit, who tilts his head expectantly as if to ask, arenât you forgetting something?
âoh, how unprofessional of me,â you deadpan. âthis is sanji, heâll be accompanying me. weâre training new hires.â
the smile on his face disappears, clearly insulted at being compared to an inexperienced beginner.
you continue, âas i was saying, todayâs special is a beef filet with rice and seaweed soup. it was chosen by chef zeff himself.â
that seems to pique the customersâ interests. who didnât want to eat a meal that had the chef zeffâs stamp of approval? they enthusiastically agree to add it to their order.
sanji scoffs. âthatâs not sayinâ much. zeff wouldnât know a good meal if it kicked him in the peg leg.â
you find yourself cringing as the patronsâ faces contort into shock at the blatant insult. well, there goes your tip.
chuckling nervously, you attempt to redirect the conversation. âcan i, um, get you anything to drink?â
dismissing sanjiâs outburst, they opt to look over the various wines the menu has to offer. you allow yourself to tune out their indecisive murmuring for the time being. however, sanji soon breaks the peaceful silence.
âyou know what, how about i whip up a dish of my own for you two? âs called a true bluefin sautĂŠ, somethinâ thatâll put todayâs special to shame. free of charge, of courseââ
âokay, thatâs enough,â you intervene in between yet another forced laugh. âcould you please excuse us for a moment?â
the guestsâ irritated expressions fill you with shame â you were used to smiles and hefty tips but never this. you pull sanji aside, ignoring his complaints about the excessive force you use to do so.
âyou need to get it together,â you seethe.
âiâm trying my best,â he replies, though thereâs a smug undertone to it. âlike you said, i am just a new hire.â
you suppress a sigh. âno new hire would badmouth the owner to customers like that. or offer to make dishes that arenâtâand never will beâon the menu.â
âouch, that was personalââ
âjust let patty know we need two specials. and tell him to make it top priority, we donât want to piss these people off even more. can you do that, please?â
it was clear you were stressed by the mess heâd created, if your pleading tone was anything to go by. sanji decides to take pity on you. he wordlessly retreats to the kitchen to do what you had asked. no quips, no teasing.
for the first time, he follows your instructions.
WEEK TWO.
it seemed as if everyone in the east blue was set on having their breakfast at the baratie.
the kitchen was bustling, cooks slaving over the stove and waiters twisting past each other to grab orders. among them was you, sweaty and thoroughly overwhelmed. despite the task at hand, you canât help but question the whereabouts of a certain blonde.
âwhereâs sanji?â you demand while grabbing more steaming plates.
carne, the chef whoâd cooked the meals, answers you. âhavenât seen him all morning.â
you groan, using your sleeve to wipe off the beads of perspiration that form at your hairline before grabbing a bowl of oatmeal and plate of fluffy belgian waffles. you knew sanji still wasnât happy about being a waiter (and he took every chance to show it) but that didnât matter; it was all hands on deck this morning.
you continue expertly stacking the dishes into your arms and hands. it was a technique youâd learned over the years and now it felt like second nature. soon enough, youâre balancing plates up to your forearms. youâre just about to head back out to the dining hall when you hear a familiar accent behind you.
âwe doinâ party tricks now or what?â
startled, you turn around so fast it causes the dishware in your hold to teeter ever so slightly. there stands sanji, clearly finding amusement in how youâre up to your elbows in breakfast foods.
âmaybe donât sneak up on me when iâm holding six plates?â you chastise him.
he chuckles. âsorry, sorry. what did i miss?â
âonly the worst breakfast rush iâve ever seen. where have you been?â
âi was takinâ a smoke outside.â
âproductive.â your tone drips with sarcasm. âweâll talk about punctuality later, for now just take the rest of those plates for me.â
sanji reluctantly obeys, grabbing two plates from the multitude of options and steps back, ready to follow you. you look at him in what could only be described as utter disbelief. he returns the stare and furrows his eyebrows as if he really canât understand what heâs doing wrong.
âyouâre seriously only taking two?â you ask.
âyeah? what, were you expecting me to join your balancing act?â
âit would help!â
âtrust me, iâd only make a bigger mess.â
âsanji.â
âfine! show me.â
you squint your eyes at him in irritation. âmy hands are a little full right now.â
he purses his lips. âthen just tell me how.â
you comply. âget your first plate, put it between your thumb and the edge of your pointer finger. make sure to rotate it away from your body.â
sanji follows your directions, attentively. he glances up at you once he completes the first couple steps, scanning your face for any disapproval. you give him a nod.
âso far so good. next, put your second plate under the first. use your remaining fingers to support itâ yeah, just like that. and let the edge of the plate rest on the bottom of the first.â
as sanji carefully carries out your instructions, you notice the determination written on his face. youâd never seen him put so much effort in a task, much less one youâd given him. you could tell it was challenging, judging by the way his hands wobble with uncertainty as he stacks the plates, but not once does he stop. itâs admirable. you feel a smile form on your face.
âokay, what nâ whatâre you laughinâ at?â
âiâm not laughing,â you defend. âitâs justâ youâre really trying. itâs nice. i like this sanji.â
he opens his mouth as if to respond but decides not to at the last moment. thereâs a brief silence before he raises his eyebrows to signal he was ready for the next step.
âright. um, the third plate uses your arm and the edge of the second plate as balance points so youâre gonna wanna put itâ yeah, right there.â
you take in the sight of all three plates successfully resting on sanjiâs arm as one of his trademark grins appears on his lips. clearly heâs proud of himself but as his wide eyes meet yours, you canât help but feel as if heâs seeking your approval too. you notice that when he glances up at you, thereâs an eager look in his eyes as if heâs hanging on to your every breath. you figure itâs normal for someone to want their mentorâs praise, right?
you willingly deliver the encouragement. âyouâre a natural. better than me.â
his reply comes so quickly it almost seems as if heâs said it without thinking. âwell, thatâs not possible, is it?â
his tone sounds warm; sincere. not to mention, this is the first time sanji has complimented your skills as a waitress. youâd received countless praises for your work ethic but somehow, something so simple from someone like sanji makes this different. special, in a way.
âletâs get to the table, foodâs gonna get cold,â you say so that you donât spend too much time replaying his words in your mind.
the journey to said table proves to be more arduous than youâd think. you offer quiet âexcuse meâs that can hardly be heard over the commotion of the kitchen as your coworkers try their best to make way for you and sanji. some of their eyes linger on the plates that masterfully balance on both your arms but truthfully, the sight of sanji exerting so much effort into waiting tables is more impressive to them. itâs distracting enough to send one of them to colliding straight into you.
your first instinct is to try and salvage as many dishes as possible but itâs useless when the impact is so strong that it sends you stumbling backwards. the only reason you donât fall over is the firm chest that presses against your back and the two pairs of strong arms that find their way around your waist. the ear-splitting sound of yours and sanjiâs plates shattering against the floor is unpleasant and yet all you can think about is how sanji literally dropped everything to catch you.
the waiter youâd crashed into groans, looking down at the mess of broken dishware and food gone to waste. âgod, look where youâre going if youâre gonna carry all those plates.â
âiâm sorry,â you instantly apologize, flustered by the rare mistake. âi was just trying to get ahead of the rushââ
âinstead, you set us back further.â his eyes flit down to his shirt and then yours. âand ruined both our uniforms.â
the abruptness of your mishap (and your skinship with sanji) had robbed all your attention, causing you to overlook the various creams and sauces that now bleed into your shirt.
âwatch it,â sanji warns him, finding the manâs aggressive tone intolerable. âif you worked half as hard as she is then maybe there wouldnât be such a need to catch up on orders.â
your coworker fixes sanji with a glare for intervening. âiâm not talking to you, pal.â
âwell, iâm talking to you. and iâm thinkinâ of taking this discussion outside if you donât apologize for being a jackass.â
that earns him an irritated sigh. however, he complies. âiâm sorry. can i get back to work now?â
sanji remains unimpressed. âdonât apologize to me. apologize to her.â
he doesnât even try to hide his eye roll before he gives you a lackadaisical apology. âiâm sorry, alright? tell your boyfriend to back off.â
he stomps away, leaving you even more rattled up by his last comment. slowly, you turn around to sanji, unsure of what to say. you take in the stains that litter his suit, though he seems unbothered by it. his stare is heated as he watches the man leave. however, when he notices you staring, his gaze softens.
âwhat was his problem?â he asks you with a chuckle that sounds out of place in a moment like this.
in any other situation youâd poke fun at sanji for also having gotten worked up but you choose not to. him getting so angry on your behalf felt⌠strange. not unwelcome, though.
your reply is simple. ây-yeah. real asshole.â
he lifts a brow. âyou okay?â
you nod a little too hard. âiâm just not used to situations like that. thanks for stepping in. and, you know, catching me.â
sanji glances away when your look of pure gratitude becomes too much for him to handle. âi couldnât have you eat shit and be out of commission, zeff just might decide to mentor me himself. and no one wants that, right?â
you canât help but laugh at the dismissive demeanor he was putting on when heâd literally just threatened a man for you. âright.â
he clears his throat. âletâs go get cleaned up then.â
âsorry,â you blurt. âabout your suit, i mean. itâs all dirty now.â
he shakes his head. âwasnât your fault. if anything, i should go force an apology out of that jerk.â
âwell, while you do that iâm gonna clean this mess up.â
âno need.â he shoots you a sly wink. âiâll make him do that too.â
WEEK THREE.
you find yourself clearing off an empty table on a somewhat slow thursday afternoon when the baratieâs newest guests catch your eye. they look nothing like the stuffy moneybags that frequented the establishment â far from it. in fact, you find yourself having to do a double take when you notice that one of them is wearing overalls. itâs refreshing, you think, occasionally glancing up at them as they settle in.
when you head back to the kitchen to grab menus, you bump into sanji, whoâd arrived from his break.
you glance at the clock on the wall. âwas that actually only ten minutes? iâm impressed.â
sanji exhales as he does every time he feels sheepish about following the rules. âdonât get used to it.â
you disregard his comment and instead hand him a couple menus. âcome on, weâve got a table.â
he frowns. âi just got back.â
âyouâll live. i think itâll be a interesting one.â
that was an understatement.
âwelcome to baratie. my name is sanji. what can i get for you?â
sanjiâs customer service voice never fails to amuse you. it sounds too forced, too sharp; as if heâs just dying to spew a one-liner or two. you have to admit, though, heâd done pretty well ever since you started letting him take the lead. there was a clear improvement from when youâd first started, a little over two weeks ago.
âone of everything!â the one with the straw hat enthusiastically exclaims.
another, more feminine, voice joins the conversation. âmaybe save that for after we find the one piece.â
thereâs a brief pause before sanji speaks again, this time in a tone you know all too well. âdidnât see you there, madam. would you care for an aperitif to start? we have several rare micqueot vintages in stock. or perhaps youâd like a glass of umeshu? you know, something sweet for someone sweet.â he ends with a wink.
she cringes. âis there something wrong with your eye?â
you can hear sanjiâs smile in his reply. âjust blinded by your beauty.â
out of all of sanjiâs antics, this somehow feels like the worst one yet. youâre not entirely sure why him blatantly flirting with the woman feels so unbearable but you decide to chalk it up to your professionalism. if any of your fellow waiters flirted with a customer youâd be just as upset⌠right?
âzeff told me he doesnât like you terrorizing the female patrons with your flirting so why donât you knock it off?â you tell sanji, your words carrying an unusual edge to them. âyouâre one shitty pick-up line away from a restraining order.â
although you mumble the last part, both sanji and the table seem to pick up on it. your bitterness earns you a surprised tilt of the head from the blonde; it wasnât like you to have such outbursts, especially not in front of guests.
ârelax,â he says, still taken aback. âitâs called working the table. you should try it sometime âcause that attitude isnât gonna get you anywhere.â
a monotonous voice cuts through the tension. âso about those drinks...â
you and sanji pause your discussion to get a look at the face behind the remark. lidded eyes that appear to be permanently hazy return your stare, through lashes so long you canât help but admire them. the man who they belong to is comfortably splayed out on his side of the booth, calmly observing the two of you. though, it seems like youâve caught his attention more than anything else. though his gaze seems uninterested, he still effectively studies every inch of you.
sanji seems to pick up the strangerâs staring problem too. he sharply inquires, âis there something on her face?â
the man turns to him once heâs finished sizing you up. âiâm just an observant guy.â
âobserve the menu instead, hm?â suddenly, sanjiâs tone sounds a lot like yours; irritated and displeased.
âno need.â the green-haired swordsman turns to you. âa beer, please.â
you hold the maleâs gaze for a second before nodding. apparently, the eye contact is too prolonged for sanjiâs taste because he cuts in, attempting to move things along.
âwhat about you, madam? anything i can get for you?â you notice heâs using that voice again.
her answer is plain. âwater.â
somehow, he manages to complicate it. âstill, sparkling, mineral? with ice or without? cubed or crushed?â
âregular water in a regular glass. thanks.â
he beams. âright away.â
âand what about the rest of you?â you ask to impede sanji from asking the woman any more questions.
âtwo beers,â the one with dark skin says. âi usually have three butââ
âand a milk!â the straw hat adds.
âgot it. anything else before we go get those drinks for you?â
a raspy voice speaks up. âdo waiters usually come in pairs here?â
you shake your head. âthis is a temporary arrangement. he just needed some extra training.â
âthat depends on who you ask,â sanji clarifies before narrowing his eyes at the man on the left of the booth. âwhy do you care anyway, mosshead?â
before you can scold sanji for giving customers rude nicknames, the customer in question swiftly corrects him. âthe nameâs zoro. i was just curious as to why such a good waiter would be partnered with someone so⌠incompetent.â
âcurious?â scoffs the woman to his left. âsince when are you ever curious? about anything other than alcohol, that is.â
âcertain things catch my attention once in a while, nami,â he replies, nonchalantly. though he mentions his colleague by name, itâs clear heâs really speaking to you. âitâs just not often that my standards can be met. but when they are, iâm left with no choice but to show a little interest.â
your head tilts at the double meaning his comment carried. though you admire zoroâs ability to be a smooth-talker, you find that thatâs where his appeal ends for you.
âhigh standards, hm? then youâre dining at the wrong place,â spits sanji in an attempt to get zoroâs attention off of you. âonly thing that isnât shitty is the drinks which weâll be getting for you now, if youâll excuse us.â
sanji hooks an arm around your shoulder before he spins on his heel and leads you both back to the kitchen. you look over your shoulder, offering the table one of your customer service smiles as an apology for your abrupt exit. sanjiâs strides are long and purposeful; heâs angry, you realize. although, you canât blame him for having such a sour attitude when you yourself arenât too thrilled either.
you donât speak to each other for the rest of the shift.
âyou smiled at him.â
you sigh, setting your book face down to glare at sanji who stands in the doorway of the quaint breakroom. âiâm on my break, sanji.â
âso am i,â he retaliates, pulling a stick out of the worn-down cigarette box in his pocket as if to prove it to you.
âso itâs not enough that iâm stuck babysitting you when weâre on the clock? youâre gonna start seeking me out in our free time too?â
he purses his lips. âpretty much.â
his stubbornness is unsurprising but you just arenât in the mood to tolerate it today, not when heâd worked your nerves earlier with his flirtatious behavior. deep down, you know you only have yourself to blame for getting so unreasonably angered by that. maybe thatâs what upsets you most.
you sigh. âjust tell me what you want.â
âi want to know why you smiled at that asshole.â
âasshole?â you repeat, laughing. âi know you have a potty mouth but god, take it easy.â
he licks his lips. âsee, now youâre defending him. what for? do you know him or something?â
âdo i have to?â
âno, but... it would be nice if you did. it would help me understand why he was talkinâ to you like that. all flirty but secretive at the same time. it was like you two had some sort of inside joke.â
âso a man being interested in me is so unfathomable to you that i have to know him or else itâs a joke?â you ask, tone heated.
âno, thatâs notââ he groans. âi didnât mean it like that.â
âwhat about you and that girl? nami, was it?â you sneer. âif zoroâs considered flirty then i donât think thereâs a word for what you are.â
âyouâre mad at me for trying to earn a tip?â he asks, squinting his eyes at you. âyou told me to be nicer to customers. i was being nice.â
âyou were really selling it,â you scoff.
âdonât believe me?â sanji challenges you. âhave you ever seen me flirt with a girl thatâs not a customer? a girl thatâs not you?â
the words tumble out of his mouth haphazardly, as if theyâd been weighing heavy on his mind for a while now. as an attempt to recover â an attempt to make it seem like that admission didnât mean something, he calmly lights the end of his cigarette. he then brings it to his chapped lips and takes a long drag.
you take the moment to really think about what heâd said. sanji was charming by nature and, of course, he knew that. not only that, but he used it to his advantage. people tended to tip better when he was laying it on thick, that much was true.
however, his second question takes a lot more thought. now that you really think about it, you realize heâs right. youâd never seen sanji flirt with another waiter or member of the staff. you were the only waitress he spoke to that way. the realization makes you feel warm in the face.
âi donât just flirt with you, you know. i do so much more. remember that plate trick you taught me? i practiced for nights on end âtil i could do it with my eyes closed. and i donât tell customers how brainless they sound half the time because i know you donât like it.â
you only watch as he paces back and forth, rattling off these thoughts that have clearly been plaguing him.
âyou still never flirt back, though,â he continues, quietly. âlately iâve been starting to think that you donât actually like me at all. thatâs the only reason i was being like that at the table. i knew i was only kiddinâ myself but still, i wanted to see if there was a small chance you cared.â
âiâŚâ itâs all you can say. seeing this raw, insecure side of him has left you truly speechless.
he fiddles his cig between his fingers. âlisten, i wouldnât blame you ifââ
you finally find your voice. âi like you.â
his voice trails off, engrossed in every word you speak. itâs a simple three words and yet heâs attentive as he waits for more to be said.
you begin to ramble, âi like your passion for the things you care about. i like how you always say what you think. i like that you always have my back. sanji, i⌠really do like you.â
he gives you a weak smile. âthatâs nice, sweetheart, but i donât think you like me the way i like you.â
âjust because i donât flirt much doesnât mean i canât have feelings for you, idiot.â
his adamâs apple bobs as he swallows thickly, processing your words. âyouâ feelings?â thereâs a pause. âgood ones, right?â
you canât help but giggle. âyes, good ones. sure as hell not the ones from three weeks ago.â
he joins you with a laugh of his own, which sounds wobblier than usual. he pulls out a chair next to you, as if this moment has left him so shaken up that he needs to sit down. âwho wouldâve thought? god, i⌠i canât believe it.â
âiâve never heard you stutter so much,â you tell him, tucking a thin strand of blonde hair behind his ear. when your fingers graze against the skin, itâs warm to the touch. cute, you think.
âi just never expected you to give me a chance.â
âa chance? to do what, exactly?â you prod.
he straightens up. âto make you mine.â
your breath hitches in your throat. âsanjiââ
âiâm not going to ask anything of you just yet. i think we should take our time. i want to show you that i can be exclusively devoted to you before we go any further. itâs only fair.â
your heart thumps wildly in your chest at the sincerity behind his words. âyouâre willing to wait just to prove yourself to me?â
he nods, taking one of your hands and squeezing it. his dedication required no words.
âso that means no more flirting with the female patrons? even when iâm not there beside you?â
he shrugs as if itâs common sense. âif thereâs no pretty waitress i want to make jealous then i donât see a need to flirt.â
you nudge his shoulder. âand what about your tips?â
âsmall price to pay.â
satisfied with his answers, you lean in and give him a quick kiss on the cheek; it feels giddy and spontaneous. sanjiâs palm instinctively comes up to rest on the spot where your lips had been. he grins before attempting to speakâ
a thick, husky accent shakes the walls. what makes it more terrifying is that itâs calling both yours and sanjiâs names.
âbreak timeâs over! get your asses back out there and wait some tables, now!â

Pinky Promise 3
Part 1
Part 2
Part 4
Word count: 2K
Pairings: Jake Seresin X Reader
A/N: Round 3 of Pink Promise! I have a few more I want to put out, but if you have something you want to see in them let me know! It's been a lot of fun writing these. Thanks for reading!!
The two of you were sitting around Jakeâs house eating takeout Chinese food. Some old movie was playing on the TV. For some reason Jake preferred the classics but you found them to be incredibly boring. It was often you found yourself in this same position, sprawled out on his couch, sitting in a comfortable silence as you watched another movie you couldnât retell the plot of.
Which is why in that moment you chose to say, âI got into medical school.â
It was nearly comical watching him choke on the spoonful of rice. He sat up and looked over to you, still coughing up those last pieces. âIâm sorry. What did you just say?â The look he gave you was disbelief mixed with something else. Something you hadnât seen before.
âI donât think I stuttered.â You took a bite of an egg roll and waited for his mind to catch up.
âMedical school? For doctors?â You couldnât help but smirk at his choice of questions. âYes, like for doctors. I thought pilots were supposed to be smart?â
He shook his head and laughed, âWhen the hell did you have time for that?â
You finished off the egg roll and shrugged your shoulders, âWhat do you think I do all day while youâre at work?â
This path you took was one you had been on for a while Everyone saw you as the girl who parties, the one who doesnât care about the outcome of her decisions. But it couldnât be farther from the truth. And instead of showing people how wrong they were about you, you let them form their very low opinions. Pleasing people was never one of your strong points and a few judgmental comments werenât going to tear you down.
Jake was clearly still processing things but paused the movie to give you his full attention. What he said next though, nearly made you cry right then and there.
âI am so proud of you, sweetheart. Holy crap you are going to be a doctor.â He got up and pulled you into a tight hug. It was then the look on his face made more sense. It was a look of pride, and one you hadnât gotten before.
âTell me all about it. Where are you going? When do you start?â His enthusiasm for this made you feel something that part of you was afraid to feel. This man was slowly becoming your best friend, which is why you pushed down all other feelings. No need to ruin a good thing.
âWell, I decided I wanted to stay close to home and was lucky enough to get into the University of California San Diego. My GPA was a little short of what they wanted, but I killed the interview. Something about your dad dying while fighting for his country tends to pull on heartstrings.â
Jake shook his head, âYou did not pull that card.â
You waved a hand at him, âPlease. I would be dumb not to. I also threw in about staying close to the base in case anything happened to Bradley. And that I might follow in the family footsteps one day.â
Jakeâs head tilted at the last part. âYou are not enlisting. I draw the line at that.â
You rolled your eyes at him, âDown tiger. All I meant was that I would want to work at a hospital close to base. The one all of you get sent to when something goes wrong.â
Relief was evident as he exhaled. âI donât think the military could handle you anyway.â
It was true. You were never one to follow orders well. Plus having a third Bradshaw in the Navy would be too much for anyone.
You picked the remote back up and resumed the movie. While Jake thought this was a big deal, you were ready to get back to the movie night. You still had a few months until school started anyway.
The movie had been playing for a few minutes, but you could feel eyes on you every now and then. âIs something the matter?â
You glanced over to the man next to you and watched him shake his head. âNothing. You just keep surprising me, thatâs all.â
âWell, either turn your attention back to this movie or Iâm putting something better on. Maybe something made in this decade.â A chuckle graced your ears and a quick, âYes maâam.â
It wasnât until the credits were running that he said, âYou better not forget about me when you become a big shot doctor.â
âI donât think I could forget about you even if I tried.â And it was the truth. That one drunken call has led you to one of the best things in life.
âPinky promise you wonât.â He had his signature smirk on full display as he held out his pinky for you to shake on. You happily gave him yours, thrilled that the Top Gun pilot has accepted this form of promises.
When he pulled away, he asked, âWhat made you want to become a doctor?â It was a simple question with a very loaded answer.
âWhen my mom was sick, it was just me and her most of the time. Bradley was off at the academy, something she wouldnât tell him but absolutely hated. And I found myself wanting to give her some sort of joy to offset my brotherâs choices. I made her a promise that I was going to graduate and get a degree in something. Something that would make a difference. It took a while to figure out what that was, but the look of pride on her face when I said medical school, I only wish I had a photo of that single moment.
âWhen there were days I questioned if I could do it or if I even still wanted to, I think back to that conversation and all doubts went out the window. There are very few things in life I want more than graduating from med school which is why I worked so hard to even get it.â Jake wiped a tear that I didnât know had fallen.
âShe wouldâve been happy that you accomplished a goal while still holding onto yourself. That you had fun while doing it. Not too many people can find that balance which tells me you are going to do amazing. But if you ever need some sort of motivation or a simple distraction from school, you can call me anytime sweetheart.â
And just like that, you knew Jake Seresin was going to be in your life for as long as you could keep him.
After the incident a little while back, your brother made an effort to be more present in your everyday life. Which meant he was currently over at your apartment criticizing how you were making dinner.
âAt any point you can either cook yourself or shut up.â Bradley held up his hands in surrender.
âAll Iâm saying is that you are going to burn the bottom of it if you donât stir it more often.â You turned around from the food and pointed the utensil in your hand at him. Which just so happened to be a knife.
âListen here bird boy. My house, my rules which means you can sit your judgmental ass down before I do something you canât bounce back from. Last I checked you needed all ten fingers to fly.â
Again, he held up his hands and thankfully kept his mouth shut while you finished up. It wasnât too much longer before you were dishing out food for the two of you and sitting down to eat it like a normal family. The two of you sat in silence while you ate, neither of you knowing what to say.
It was like this most nights. After your mom died Bradley threw himself into his work, leaving you to fend for yourself. It wasnât anyoneâs fault but the two of you grew apart as the years went on, leaving you to call your brother only when you needed help. This is what formed his new picture of you. He only saw you when you were at your worst.
But he was trying and the least you could do was meet him halfway.
âYou know how you see me as careless and not at all organized with life?â You watched as your brother sighed and shook his head.
âWe have gone over this. That is not how I see you. We just have different goals in life and thatâs fine.â You waved him off.
âRight. Well, I am pleased to tell you that Iâm not as big as a fuck up as you might think. I start med school in a few months.â Bradley dropped his spoon, sending food splattering on the counter.
You watched his facial expressions, looking or hoping for the one you got the other day from Jake. It wasnât that you needed the validation from your brother, but it would be nice to see it for once.
âMed school? The school where you go to become a doctor?â You snorted at the similar question Jake had asked.
âWhat is with pilots and their lack of common sense. Yes, Bradley. The school for doctors.â You grabbed a napkin to wipe up the drops of food while he tried to form words.
âHow?â You froze at that single word. It shouldnât surprise you, the lack of faith this man had in you. But it still stung.
âThe same way anyone gets in. Ace a test, get decent grades, and interview well. Not too hard when you think about it.â Which wasnât exactly true. You had a lot of all-nighters, tears shed at the near impossible dream, and many bumps along the way. But you had to do it.
âMom and dad would be proud of you.â Your eyes met his and you saw something different in them. It wasnât the pride you were looking for but sadder. Like the weight of those words cut through him.
âI know. I was always trying to follow in your footsteps, even if I did take a longer path. But you know dad wouldâve been ecstatic to see you wear the patch he tried so hard for. And mom, well mom wouldâve eventually gotten over her fears of you being a pilot and saw how you were born for this. You know that, right?â
He cleared his throat and focused back on his food. âAnyone else know? Itâs a pretty big deal.â
You picked up on the change of topic and said, âYour arch nemesis knows. Besides that, the friend list is pretty scarce these days.â
He slowly nodded his head, âYou seem to spend a lot of time with him.â
âHeâs a good friend. No need to look too far into it. I know the two of you have your issues, but heâs never given me a reason to question his intentions.â
Bradley hummed in response, but he didnât fully believe you when it comes to only being friends. Heâs seen the way Jake is at work, but with you he was completely different. You might not see it or are trying to ignore it, but he knew better.
âAre you and him still at each otherâs throats?â Bradley rolled his eyes, âItâs not my fault he thinks heâs better than everyone else. Heâs insufferable.â
You grabbed the finished plates and took them to the sink. âYou know what would get under his skin? If you laughed at everything he said. I think that would rile him up good.â
Bradley squinted his eyes at you, âI thought the two of you were friends? Why would you tell me that?â
You shrugged your shoulders, âHe is always listening to me complain about you. This way he can do it for once so itâs more even.â
Bradley threw his napkin at you and shook his head, âYouâre a jerk, you know that?â
You threw him one of Jakeâs signature smirks, âBut Iâm your jerk.â

hear me outđ frenemies to lovers with fratboy!sukuna that has rumors about him being some sort of sex god meanwhile hes a virgin, demisexual, and has the fattest crush on reader but of course readers too dense to notice so one day at a frat party maybe he does something that makes reader realize
RYOMEN SUKUNA || fratboy!au
note: *slams hand on table* i love it - give me 20 of those.
pronouns: afab, but really it's gender neutral for the most part
disclaimer: since I am in Europe, it's not underaged drinking - but do not that there is drinking/flat-party-esk vibes? (idk, don't know mich about frats hahaha)
ryomen sukuna masterlist |Â buy me a coffee? Â
college is daunting
but while college is for studies, it is also known for the parties
now obviously there was no requirement for you to drink to have fun, but it definitely helps - and with you being roomed with a very energetic group of housemates, on the odd day they catch you outside of your room, you are being dragged to a house party
and like any college, there is the most popular 'party animal' - and for your college, that is ryomen sukuna
riding on a football scholarship, and having been bid on by almost all the frat houses, sukuna was known to be the life of the party; being able to charm a wall if you left him in front of one long enough
There were endless rumours about which 'lucky' girl he slept with that week, what parties he was going to for the week, and the new drink combos he came up with
basically whatever he touched, turned into gold
and even if you wanted to avoid him, you physically can't - not when you two are in the same course and shared almost all of your classes together
it was hard to ignore the constant whispers in the crowded lecture hall you two share; half of these people aren't even in your degree, but they are hogging up all the seats
so unless you go in early, you are not getting the good seats
and it just had to be your luck that the only few seats that were free were right in front of sukuna's; which was at the very front of the classroom
that already annoys you, and it doesn't help that sukuna seems to take annoying you as a part of his to-do list
not only does he make sure to go out of his way to do any group project (which to be fair, bar from being hard to organise group meetings with him, he does his share of the work), he seems to always seek you out in any of your shared lectures
not only did it mean you had the glaring eyes of at least 10 people on you, but you could also hear the whispers and the somewhat passive-aggressive interactions with a few of your classmates
it also came with a lot of people trying to become your 'friend', as it seemed from the outside that you and sukuna are close friends
and because of this, you had tried to ignore sukuna for the most part - you weren't mean or cold, you were just cordial
but that seemed to not have deterred him; as he would run up to you after lectures or invite himself into your conversations with your roommates and friends
it is because of his persistence that it led to you two having somewhat of a friendship - where you found out that behind his outgoing and sometimes borderline arrogant personality, he was somewhat of a nerd who enjoys video games and comics, and goes home often to visit 'the brat' (aka, his baby brother)
your sudden closeness to the 'king of the campus' however meant attention - which meant personal invites to massive house parties
you were not much of a party person. sure, you enjoyed a good drink or two, but you prefer to stay in on the weekend
however, as if god hates you, the invite to this party was on a name basis - and guess whose name was printed on the invitation in big, bold letters?
so that is how you found yourself being shoved into your bathroom with an outfit that your roommate had found in your closet; with promises that she will be doing your makeup once you walk out
not long after you found yourself being welcomed into sukuna's frat house; where your friends immediately started to drag you around to see who had actually been invited
and if like magic, sukuna seemed to have spotted you from wherever he was and made his way towards you
"well look at what the cat's dragged in?" he called out to you teasingly with a smirk
you greeted him back, and you thought that was that - but he just seems to...follow you everywhere?
from you finding your friends (you made him open all your bottles), bringing you to meet his frat brothers and other friends, butting into your conversations with random people
it was like having a very clingy cat following you like a shadow
you have no idea why he does that so much; it was as if he was trying to scare everyone away and keep your attention entirely on him
eventually, though your friends got to drag you away to play some games that were being held, and that was how you found yourself in a circle of people playing suck and blow; where you pass the card to the next person with your lips. and if the card falls you had to take a drink
after you guys changed your seats, you found yourself sitting between two men; since it had to be girl-boy-girl
you don't know who the guy is by your left, but you are aware of the man on your right; you two shared the same classes and so wave or nod at each other when you make eye contact
and even though you can't see him, you can feel sakuna's eyes on you from behind you. which both reassures you, but also made your hair stand on the edge
soon though the game started, and your attention was soon occupied with the game as the card started to make its rounds around the table
the first few rounds were fun to watch; since the card only went past 3 to 4 people before it fell on the ground, with the two people laughing when they kissed before taking a sip from their drink
it took a while for you to get your first try of the game, and you managed to hand the card over to the next person perfectly, but it was when the second time the card returned to you that it fell a few seconds just before the other man got into position
it all happened in slow motion; one moment you were staring wide-eyed at the man beside you as he got closer to your face, and the next thing you knew a warm hand was pressed up against your lips and you were pulled into a solid mass
"don't even think about it, punk."
the group around you erupted in teasing cheers as you felt your face warm up from embarrassment; your eyes looking up at sukuna to see him giving the poor man a lethal look. his other hand gripping so tightly onto his bottle that you feared he was going to break it
before you can do anything though you are hoisted off your seat and lead off; spluttering through your shock as you try to catch up behind sakuna
eventually, you two came to a stop in a room, and it took you a few seconds to realise that you were in sukuna's room. who was staring down at you with an unreadable look on his face. "um-"
"just how dense are you ?"
you aren't really sure what he meant by that, and he must have seen the confusion on your face as he just rolled his eyes in annoyance
"you do know i like you, right? I've been trying to tell you for months now."
you didn't know what to say - so all you did was blink up at the frustrated man and slowly shook your head in response. you genuinely had no idea at all
"..i am in love with an idiot."

tw: slight dubcon due to aphrodisiac
thinking about miguel. miggy. or mr. oâhara as you call him in this case
thinking about him with his comic storyline. heâs always busy at alchemax. always working hard. exhausting himself. so in comes you, his new pretty little lab assistant, fresh out of college, and so so eager to please. to prove yourself. youâre always in the lab with him. always running up and down the halls for him so he can continue working on what you deem as more important tasks. always relaying messages. and much to his dismay, always catching everybodyâs eye
unfortunately for you, aaron, his supervisor, had taken a sleazy liking to you. youâre not quite sure you can say the same but nonetheless, youâre always pleasant. and he knows youâre always eager
he calls you in one day when miguel has already gone home. usually you wouldnât be there either but some reports needed to be finished and despite his protests, you promised theyâd be done by morning. aaron tells you he needs you to help him test something, and that, my dear, is how miguel ends up picking up the phone after the tenth time it rings. heâs startled and blood immediately rushes south when he hears your voice, high and whiny. needy
âmiggyâ
oh he didnât know the nickname could sound so pretty. not only is it finally falling from your pretty mouth, but to hear you begging for him?
heâs immediately in the car and on the phone with you the entire time- miggy, hurts. need help. want you. need you- he tries to tell you to calm down, to focus, stop talking, but thereâs not much conviction behind it. puta madre when did his pants get so tight
you stumble out of the building as he pulls up and immediately youâre all over him, nearly knocking his glasses off his nose. heâs just trying to help you into the car, to get you home or get you help, but your hands are wandering and he feels a bit faint. heâs trying so hard to keep his hands to himself and he nearly chokes when you palm him through his sweats but he pries you off gently despite your whimpers and straps you into the passengerâs seat. collects himself. then you guys are off. he asks what happened but all he manages to get from you is that aaron needed help and when whatever he gave you didnât seem to have any effect, he lost interest and left. miguel thinks he might throttle him
or maybe heâll thank him beforehand because- christ when did you take off your seatbelt? youâre on your knees in your seat, bent over the center console. your hand is already tugging at his sweats, and youâre so desperate at this point that there are tears in your eyes
âplease miggy please please please, promise. i jusâ need it pleaseâ
youâre not making any sense. his eyes nearly roll when your soft hand wraps around him and he whines. this hulking man whines because he shouldnât be doing this, he shouldnât allow this. âhermosa please you donât know what youâre doingâ
you just keen and when he glances down, the sight of your hand wrapped around his weeping cock beneath a thin layer of fabric nearly makes him swerve off the road. âstop-â he gasps as the pad of your thumb spreads pre over the head and he white knuckles the steering wheel. âyouâve gotta stopâ he growls this time, self restraint hanging on by a thread. you donât care. you mouth at the covered head until the cloth is wet with drool and his arousal. his fingers tangle in your hair with the intent to pull you away but you find the weight of his hand only worsens the mess between your thighs. and you just feel so empty
the moment you peel his now sticky sweats away and wrap your warm mouth around him, heâs gone. itâs a miracle that the car isnât immediately wrapped around a tree. he goes from âno please donâtâ to âshock, preciosa just like that. ta- ahn perfectaâ within seconds and youâre positively aching for him. aching to please. and every pretty moan, sweet whine, deep growl, makes your already blazing skin ten times hotter. he can smell you but when he reaches over to touch you and he feels your slick running down your thighs, soaking your panties, he really does almost crash. heâll pay you back, he promises, and you whine with him down your throat
by the time he fills your mouth to overflowing, salty, thick, so very him and so so much, youâre crying. heâs just so pretty when he struggles and youâre so empty. you pull off, a mess of tears and cum and drool but you refuse to give him a break and continue pumping him until he can barely think. heâs never been so glad to see his apartment building
âpleasepleaseplease fuck me miggy pleaseâ youâre clambering over into his lap and he lets out a shuddering sigh as he finally, impatiently tears away your soaked panties to slip two thick fingers into your needy cunt and you thank him through little cries like heâs saved your life
âsâokay i know. i know, iâll take care of you, babyâ
looks like youâre not gonna make it upstairs

Sugar, Sugar Part 1
Pairing: WandaNat x Reader
Word Count: 2.1k
Summary: After losing your job, you are desperate to come up with some money. Your best friend Kate signs you up for a sugar baby app where you meet Wanda and Natasha, who eventually become your sugar mommies.
Authors Note: I've been reading so many sugar mommy!wandanat x reader fics that I wanted to make one myself. I know the beginning is a bit rough, but I'm just trying to set everything up. I promise it will get better!!!! There will also be plenty of smut in the upcoming chapters, this is just a warning for that now. And I plan on making many parts to this. I hope you all enjoy it!
Part 2 Part 3
âI donât know what Iâm going to do,â you dramatically exclaim. You drape yourself across the old and slightly musty couch in your small two person apartment. Your work uniform rides up your body a little as you lay down, which you quickly pull down, covering yourself again. You pull your right arm over your eyes, trying to block out the light and the horrible day you just had.
Your best friend and roommate Kate laughs sympathetically at your dramatics. âI know getting fired sucks but thereâs tons of ways to make money.â She moves your legs and sits down next to you, placing your legs on top of her.
âLike what?â
âWell you could mow lawns, dog sit, babysit, just until you find another job,â Kate suggests.
âI guess I could but I just donât know if that would be able to cover my bills and let alone rent.â
âWell there is another thing you can try.â The tone in Kate's voice has you sitting up, removing your arm so you can look at her.
âYou remember my friend Darcy that I told you about?â
âYeah the super rich, successful one.â
âWell when she was in college she was a sugar baby,â Kate says before she cuts herself off to scold you. âAnd y/n donât give me that look just hear me out!â
âOk fine, keep talking.â
âWell she got a whole bunch of money from it. She was able to pay off her student loans and she had some money leftover that she invested and yâknow now sheâs rich and super successful and hot and amazing. But that wasnât the point.â Kate shakes her head at herself, scolding herself for getting off topic like she always does. âAnyway maybe you should try being a sugar baby.â
âI donât know Kate.â Sure this would be a great opportunity for you, if you find someone that is, but do you really want to use your body to get money?
âYou could just look and see whatâs out there. You donât have to accept any sugar daddy or sugar mommy proposals,â Kate says and youâve got to admit that sheâs got a good point.
âOk what the hell,â you say, agreeing.
âLet me just get the sugar baby app name from Darcy and we can do this.â
A few minutes later the app is downloaded on your phone. You feel nervous but also excited. This could be a way for you to not have to worry about money, at least for a while. Maybe it would be nice to be taken care of.
âOk itâs downloaded, letâs set it up.â The two of you create your profile and pretty soon youâre looking at sugar mommies and sugar daddies.
âWhat about this one?â You ask Kate. You pass her the phone, and from the look on her face you can tell that itâs a no go.
âDefinitely not,â Kate says, her nose wrinkling up in disgust.
âWhy not?â
âI know you, and thatâs not what you want.â You have to admit she is right, you donât really want some 50 year old with a penchant for âparading his girls aroundâ as he called it, but youâre desperate and he is the best looking person on there so far.
You continue to scroll through the men and women, none of them really catching your eye until you see the profile of a beautiful red haired girl and an equally beautiful auburn haired girl. You would recognize their faces anywhere, Natasha Romanoff and Wanda Maximoff, the owners of the country's best security company.
âThereâs no way this is real,â you say. âThis has to be some sort of joke or something.â You pass her your phone and watch as her eyes go comically wide.
âThereâs no way the Natasha Romanoff and the Wanda Maximoff are looking for a sugar baby,â you say. You practically scoff at the idea, but thereâs still that little voice in your head that wonders if maybe the profile is real.
âThereâs only one way to find out,â Kate says. She still has your phone in your hands and you watch as she types, until finally she stops.
âKatie what did you do?â
âI just messaged them,â Kate says innocently. You glance down at the message and it says, âHi my name is y/n and Iâd love to get to know you both and see if Iâm what youâre looking for ;),â
âDid you have to add the wink Katie? Theyâre gonna think Iâm like a whore or something now,â you whine.
âOh relax you big baby. Itâs fine. And besides maybe a whore is what theyâre looking for,â Kate says, giving you a wink.
âKate!â You exclaim. You lightly slap her on the arm.
âOwww y/n. Youâre very feisty for such a tiny person.â
âServes you right,â you mutter underneath your breath. The two of you continue to scroll through the app when you see a notification pop up.
Natasha and Wanda had replied to your message.
âOh my god,â you say. You can feel yourself freaking out, even when youâre going into the texting part of the app and opening the message.
âHi darling, weâd love to get to know you more too! Weâre Natasha and Wanda, weâre both sugar mommies who are looking for a sugar baby to share. We work quite a bit, but we promise that weâll still have time for you if things work out between us. Canât wait to hear back from you,â the message reads. You show the message to Kate who responds with excitement.
But you can feel yourself freaking out on the inside even more now. However your doubts from earlier creep in and calm you down. Thereâs a big chance that this is just a catfish, but you still want to take the chance. Who wouldnât want an opportunity to be with Natasha and Wanda?
âHelp me come up with a response,â you tell the girl sitting next to you. After a few minutes of back and forth, the two of you come up with what you think is the perfect response.
âThanks for getting back to me so quickly. Iâm y/n, a sugar baby who is currently in college trying to pay off my loans. I normally have plenty of time on my hands and would be able to be around whenever you need.â
You cringe at the last part of the message, which was all Kateâs idea, but clearly it worked because a few minutes later you have a text inviting you out to get some coffee tomorrow afternoon and you say yes.
âYou have to come with me though, just in case itâs like a catfish or something,â you tell your best friend.Â
âOf course, Iâll sit in the cafe and just text me if you need me,â Kate says reassuring you.Â
The next day comes too quickly and before you know it you and Kate are sitting in the cafe waiting for Natasha and Wanda. Youâre sitting at a table in the back, while Kate is sitting at a table across the room from you. The minutes seem to drag on forever, making you even more anxious than you already are. Everytime the bell above the door goes off, you glance up, hoping itâs one of the girls walking through. Youâre just about to lose hope when you see Natasha and Wanda walk in. They look so breathtakingly beautiful.Â
âHi Y/n,â Wanda says, being the first to greet you. She towers over you as she envelopes you in a hug, which you gladly reciprocate. Â
âHi,â you say back. It comes out quieter than you meant it to. You can feel your cheeks heating up, but gladly both women ignore it.Â
âAnd hi Iâm Natasha,â the red haired girl says. She also towers over you, but you like that about the two women. She also envelopes you into a hug. She smells like vanilla and smoke and it gives you a sense of comfort. The three of you sit down and the two women get straight to the point.Â
âSo as you know weâre looking for a sugar baby,â Natasha says, her voice a low tone. âWe just wanted to meet with you today to go over some things and see if weâd get along,â she explains.Â
âOk that sounds good,â you agree.Â
âHave you ever been in a dynamic like this before?âÂ
âNo I havenât,â you say, your blush coming back. You can feel your nerves getting worse as well as you fidget with a ring on your hand.Â
âItâs ok to be nervous baby, we wonât bite,â Wanda leans in to tell you. She places her hand on top of yours, stopping your fidgeting. She places her hand in yours, which you gladly hold.Â
âThatâs alright, weâre pretty new to this too. But there are a couple of things we wanted to go over today. First, when do you have class?â
âWell Tuesday and Thursday mornings I have class until 11am, but besides that my days are wide open.â This answer makes Natasha smile, which in turn makes you smile.Â
âWhat is it that you need help with?â You appreciate that Natasha is getting straight to the point, itâs doing wonders at calming your nerves.
âMostly rent and some bills. I, uh, just lost my job and itâs been hard to stay afloat.â
âWell that wonât be a problem now that weâre here,â Natasha tells you, sending you a wink. The action sends a blush across your face, turning it a shade of pink.Â
"I know this isn't exactly normal," Natasha says, "But we promise if today works out, which I think it will, we'll take care of you darling." Natasha's words make you smile. Normally you were never so shy around people, but the two women next to you really bring it out in you.
âDo you have any questions for us honey?â Wanda asks.Â
âYes actually. What is it exactly that I would be doing?â
âYou would keep us company, go to some company functions with us, and,â Natasha says, her voice dropping low as she says the next part, âhave sex with us when we want it.â
âBut obviously we would work up to that part,â Wanda adds cheerfully.Â
âOk,â you say, taking all of that information in. You knew going into this that sex would be on the table, but it shocks you that these two beautiful women are wanting to do it with you.Â
âIâm sorry if this is a weird question, but arenât the two of you together? What exactly do you need me for?â
âYes weâre together sweetheart, but weâre not the most compatible in the bedroom.â
âWhat Wanda means is that weâre both pretty dominant and we need someone submissive to fulfill our needs,â Natasha says. Wanda slaps her on her arm and lightly scolds her, making you giggle.Â
âI can do that,â you say, letting both of them know that you want this. The thought of being submissive for both of them stirs a longing within you. You can feel a slight dampness in your panties and you cross your legs, hoping Wanda, who is still holding your hand, doesnât notice. But of course she does.Â
âYou already feeling a little needy, baby?â Wanda whispers, her cockiness coming out of nowhere, but god does it turn you on. Her lips ghost on the outer shell of your ear, causing your breathing to become ragged.Â
âMhm,â you manage to get out.Â
âYouâre so cute when youâre needy. I canât wait to see just how needy I can make you,â Wanda says. She leans away from you, but not before leaving a soft kiss on your cheek, making you go pink.
âDonât kill the poor girl Wanda,â Natasha scolds.Â
âI canât help it, sheâs just so cute,â Wanda says, like you aren't there, which just turns you on even more.Â
âYeah she is,â Natasha agrees.Â
You donât know what to say, too absorbed in your own lust, when Natasha speaks again, snapping you out of it.
âHere are our phone numbers,â she says, slipping you a piece of paper. You take the pieces of paper and program their numbers into your phone and you give them your number and they do the same.
âWeâll text you tomorrow to work out the details and set up a contract, assuming you still want to do this?â Wanda questions.Â
âI do,â you reassure her.Â
âThen weâll talk to you tomorrow, detka,â Wanda says. The two women get up, both hugging you goodbye. You watch the two women walk out, having forgotten that Kate was also at the cafe until she comes up to you.Â
âOh my god,â Kate says.
âI know,â is all you say.
âWhat are you going to do?â
âIâm going to get two sugar mommies.â

Did you know Iâve probably cried like a dozen times from BATFAMILY fic over the last two weeks? Iâm not a big cryer, so thatâs saying something for me, by which I mean, I realize I have some incredibly intense feelings about fictional characters, but also fandom is phenomenal about hitting those feelings dead on in exactly the way they mean to do. And itâs great, hell yeah make me cry buckets in emotional catharsis!! And then balance it out with comfort or humor because my soul needs soothing, too! I have been reading so many comics lately (so many good comics, what is this, Iâm not used to having comics I actually think are good) and I love the canon so very much, but part of the draw towards this fandom has always been the enthusiastic fic response, the willingness to explore things the comics themselves donât always have time for, whether aftermath of events or psychological effects that arenât necessarily intended but are fascinating to consider or just straight up downtime thatâs not about a case because fic doesnât need to make people punch things in every issue. The two go hand in hand for me and getting fun comics to read and fun fic to read has been really meaningful to me in a time when Iâve really needed that in my life. I hope that I can return the favor even a little by shoving a bunch of fics at you and only making you scroll a little to get through my Dick Grayson Problem. BATFAM FIC RECS - BABY DICK IS THE CUTEST FERAL ROBIN IâM NOT HEARING ANY ARGUMENTS: ⌠May Our Memories Light The Way by sElkieNight60, dick & bruce, time travel, 1.9k    Bruce travels into the past and serves up an apology long over-due. ⌠Late Spring by halyordan, dick & bruce & alfred, 3.5k    Dick gets in his first âfightâ at school. Luckily, Bruce was an angry boy once. He knows how to deal with it. ⌠the color violet by TheResurrectionist, dick & bruce & cast, 2.6k    The address â 1007 Mountain Drive â told Alex two things: one, their patient was either going to be someone unreasonably wealthy or an unlucky service worker, and two, getting to the actual patient was going to be a bitch. ⌠as i was walkinâ by oh_fudgecakes, dick & bruce & alfred, 3.6k    Bored and chased out of the kitchen by an irate Alfred, a young Dick Grayson falls through a loose floorboard while exploring the attic and ends up in an locked storeroom housing an interesting set of journals. ⌠help me fill this hole in my soul by renecdote, dick & bruce & cast, 5.9k    Dick nearly drowns on patrol one night. Heâs fine, except that he really isnât. Alfred and Bruce take care of him when he gets sick and let him know that even though his parents are gone he isnât alone. ⌠medio by newsical, dick & bruce & alfred, 2.1k    Loss, again. This loss was by his hand, by his own tongue, with words so sharply edged that they tore apart his mouth and left his lips bloody. The manor was silent, and he was alone. And Alfredâs half birthday was in three days. ⌠My Little Bird (is a Troublemaker) by sElkieNight60, dick & bruce & clark & cast, 10.9k    No, not good enough, thought Bruce as he gripped the boyâs shoulders in his hands. Dick still didnât move and the man had to resist the violent urge to shake the answer out of him. This wasnât his little bird. This wasnât his Robin, he would never do something like this. Dick gets caught drunk, Bruce loses it. ⌠things kept hidden by emavee, dick & bruce & cast, 9.7k    âBetter hope the Batman doesnât catch wind of you. Batman hates metas. Heâll make you disappear. Thatâs what he does.â âBut Iâd never hurt anyone,â Dick stammers. He doesnât know very much about Batman, but heâs a hero, right? He fought crime, like Superman, and Superman was a hero. Right? ⌠(Not) Enough by daringyounggrayson, dick & bruce & alfred, 2.3k    After the training simulation goes wrong, Bruce takes his kid home. ⌠i canât promise (itâs not written in the stars) by konan_konan, dick & bruce & alfred & cast, 7.3k    Batman is following him, surely, but heâs smaller and faster and heâs not going to let someone take him and lock him up again. Wayne Manor, heâs learned, is just another kind of prison. It may be big and fancy but it is also empty and cold and heâs not going back. Tony Zucco dies tonight, he tells himself. It is the only thing that matters. ⌠whatâs needed most by dizarys, dick & bruce & alfred, 1k    Dick wants to fly. Bruce would like that to not involve giving him a heart attack for once. ⌠two sheep counted, but not enough to sleep by batofgoodintent (crownedcrusader), dick & bruce, 1.8k    Dick hasnât been sleeping. Itâs a problem Bruce should have addressed by now. BATFAM FIC RECS - ADULT BATSON AND BATDAD ARE MY KRYPTONITE, I FOLD LIKE WET CARDBOARD FOR THEM: ⌠(At the Very Least), I Can by sElkieNight60, bruce & dick & jason & tim & damian, 3k    â⌠something is wrong.â That was Bruceâs voice, he would know it anywhere. OR, Dick Grayson + Full Body Paralysis ⌠Catch by sElkieNight60, bruce & dick, 2k    Raptor has Bruce in dire straits. Nightwing catches Bruce as he falls. Then it turns out Bruce never fell at all, he jumped. âDick. I didnât fall. I jumped. I jumped because I knew youâd catch me.â Childhood trauma never truly goes away, it seems. OR, the emotional aftermath of âBetter than Batman.â ⌠Call Me if You Need Me by LiterallyThePresident, bruce & dick & alfred, 1.1k    âMaster Bruce is rather distraught, you see.â and now Alfred sounded pained, âThe dose he received was not enough to render him immobile, but it is causing some paranoia and unpleasant hallucinations. He⌠Well, he appears to be rather convinced that something has happened to you.â BATFAM FIC RECS - EVERYBODY LOVES DICK: ⌠Sons and Fathers by FabulaRasa, dick & bruce & jefferson & dick/babs, 4.9k   Dick has three conversations that needed to be had, at the end of season three. This is blatantly a âthere I fixed itâ fic. ⌠The Best Medicine by JpegDotJpeg, dick & bruce & jason & tim & damian & alfred & cass, 2.2k    âIâm dying.â âYou are not dying.â âThis is it. Itâs the end for me. I bet I have some exotic viral disease with no known cure and now Iâm going to waste away into nothingness.â âI highly doubt that, Master Richard.â ⌠Look to the Stars by Zephyrra, dick & bruce & jason & hal & alfred & cast, lantern!dick, 8.3k    After Batman fires Robin for the last time, Dick becomes a Flying Grayson in an entirely new way: by becoming a Green Lantern. But no matter what kind of mask he dons, Dick Grayson has a way of (accidentally) changing history irrevocably. This is only the beginning. ⌠the courage of stars by theragingstorm, dick & clark/lois & jon & cast, 1.8k    When he really needs somebody, Dick goes to Metropolis. ⌠a great honour (to hold you up) by dizarys, dick & bruce & jason & tim & damian & cass & steph & duke, 2.6k    âFor the last time, Iâm not getting sick!â Jason and Tim exchanged skeptical looks behind Dickâs back. âYouâre pale, shivering, and wince every time your bare skin touches the cold metal desk.â Jason ticked off on grease smeared fingers, âSounds sick to me.â âWonderful observations, Holmes.â Dick muttered, still looking through the microscope. âWhat does Watson have to add?â âThat first of all, Iâm Sherlock.â said Tim, âAnd my associate is correct. You should go get some rest.â ⌠i am tired of all these motherfuckinâ bombs on these motherfuckinâ spaceships by konan_konan, dick & bruce & damian & titans & background dick/kory & justice league, 4.5k    âThose generators wonât last long,â barks Batman. âWeâre losing our window. What other plan do you propose, Nightwing?â He huffs. âIâm gonna blow up the ship.â or: when the justice league gets stranded in space, the teen titans come to the rescue. it doesnât exactly go to plan. BATFAM FIC RECS - JASON TODD IS AN ASSHOLE CAT, IâM GONNA THROW HIM AT HIS SIBLINGS BECAUSE ITâS FUNNY: ⌠abyssal plain by glassofwater, dick & jason, 3.5k    âWhat did you do?â âExactly what he said. I killed him.â ⌠Bang, bang by Ididloveyou_once, tim & jason & cast, 5.5k    âYou shot me!â Jason gasped, stunned, âHoly shit, you actually shot me.â Timâs eyes widened and he froze. They stared at each other for a second, dumbstruck and then- âDonât tell Bruce.â ⌠Break the Ice by dizarys, dick & jason, 1.5k    He felt the blades pierce his body. It was at the height of his leap, back arched as he sprang backwards over the car. A bolt of searing hot pain shot through his side then thigh. But Nightwing still landed with grace and flung his escrima sticks straight into two gang membersâ heads.

You know, if I weren't lazy I could give you an essay on how comic Wade is either closeted transfem or wants to at least medically transition even if he stays using he/him pronouns. I'd even site my sources in MLA format for you. I'd just have to find some very specific events, and it also relies on the idea that the scars are psychosomatic (which was implied in one of the Deadpool and Spiderman comics).
The only problem is on a good day I'm wishy washy about liking that (a physical representation of his poor mental health that people either ignore or out right demonize? yes please) but on most days I don't really like it as a concept.
oh goshhhhhh I am soooo here for transfem Wade!!!!
Should you ever have the spoons to deliver that essay, I for one would love to hear it.
She (or he, I think they're pretty fluid with pronouns, like Deadpool always is!) is the transfem who makes her gender identity A Big Joke for years and years and years, always laughing about 'haha what if I was a girl what if I was your girlfriend what if my pussy got wet whenever we fought what if I wore a maid dress for you what if that hahahaha wouldn't that be funny'
to the point where
everyone can kinda tell
it isn't a joke
but Wade's almost too afraid to acknowledge that it isn't? Like, she's been keeping her barriers up with comedy for so long, and especially growing up with her dad and then in the military, a BIG part of her is fucking terrified about what it means to acknowledge how she really feels about herself, let alone embrace it.
Anyway, I think one day someone (Vanessa?) would listen to Wade doing his usual bit about 'lol what if I was a girl' and would just say "You could be, you know."
Her tone is kind, gentle, and completely fucking serious.
And Wade suddenly gets
very
very
quiet.
For all of a minute.
"Yeah," he manages eventually, hoarser than ever. Flashing Vanessa a bright, cheeky grin that doesn't quite reach his (her?) eyes. "But then you'd have competition for being the hottest woman in this polycule, and we can't have that."
But maybe next time he takes Vanessa up on her offer to do his nails and make up, she catches him looking at himself wistfully in the mirror, and presses a little kiss to the side of his head.
"I'm ready for that competition whenever you are," she promises. "But you'd better bring your A-game. I'm not gonna go easy on you just because you're a newly minted girl."
Wade chokes out a laugh. She jerks away from her reflection like she's scared that she's been caught - then, tentatively, glances back again. Looking at herself, scars and high cheekbones and thin eyelashes darkened with mascara, and more scars, and all - before her nervous, sickly yellow eyes flit to Vanessa's.
Vanessa can see the want there. The yearning.
And she can see, just as clearly, the fear.
"Rain check?" asks Wade, fake-breezy. "Not that I'm not ready for you to kick my ass at the art of hot-girlhood, but you have had a lot more practice."
Vanessa finds her hand - fever-hot as ever, and just a little sweaty. She gives it a tight squeeze.
"Rain check," she agrees, not because she wants it, but because Wade needs it. Then, distracting her, because there's a fragile set to Wade's mouth, like she's letting something she so desperately wants slip between her fingers - "What colour should I paint your toenails?"
"Ooh!" Wade perks up immediately, clapping her hands in delight. "Wolverine-costume-yellow? Nonono, gunmetal grey for Cable! And Colossus. Okay, so maybe one yellow for every two grey? Hey, I'll do yours too~ We can match!"
She's adorable when she's excited. Vanessa drops another little kiss on one of the textured ridges that divides Wade's skull into continents of scar tissue. "Sounds like a perfect girls' night."
"Girls' night," Wade repeats, smile small and precious. Then, bouncing up from the chair in front of Vanessa's vanity - "Okay, game plan! I'll go put on the Golden Girls and make popcorn, you get the nail polish and the files. Sound good?"
"Sounds amazing."

hii im suuper late to my own week ik (i'll post the rest of the days from time to time, college applications were a pain </3 but i've got most of it down
This piece is a redraw of my very first post ! This has been a wip since the start of the year so my art style unsurprisingly changed a bunch as i tweaked the lines and colors. it's not the best but it's looking as good as it can be!
as for the zine, people are free to draw up pieces for the week up until the end of september and we can compile it all together! it's not really the usual zine format but who knows.. we can maybe try to figure out a way to formally start a more structured zine project for these two
Anyway! I've decided to dedicate my greenflower week posts to my headcanons I've made up for them from the past 4 years.. I figured you guys could take a peek into my brain since I haven't really been good at that unless you catch me in a vc :") there's a buncha hcs and old ass art i never posted finally unearthing under the cut if you wanna take a peek
So, first thing: Body headcanons..
i took super long getting what i want with this waay back when I started posting cause I was still figuring out a lot with my art. i couldn't get in good details/features that would properly differentiate them or make them fun to draw. I wasn't striving to be really innovative with the designs or anything, I just wanted them to feel like characters I like looking at and thinking about
finally, i'm somewhat able to settle on these as of right now! It will most likely update as the time passes and my art changes, but this is what I got!
basically the main idea is that i wanted Lloyd to be bulkier but sharper. grew up fast and has all these edges, but then you get to know him and he's just a big ol dork. Mostly wears loose-fitting clothes that hides his figure, but he's quite built underneath
Brad's a lil taller and pretty lanky. my art style may not be able to show that properly but lloyd can snap him in half <3 he also seems hella chill but that's probably cause he got balls of steel after living through a million ninjago invasions
This thing below is an old outfit concept I have for a project that I've been working on. does not reflect my current headcanons with his physical appearance but i do like his clothes
I think he loves his role as the green ninja, saving the world and such. it came with lots of baggage and reflection but i do promise that he enjoys it for the most part. I think him wearing green is kind of like wearing work clothes so he tends to avoid it on days when he's free to keep from being too ready to jump into ninja mode
i do tend to keep him in green though cause the fandom sure does love their color-coded ninja
anyway .. that's about most of what i've got for this that looks good enough to post, so here's a bunch of other doodles/sketches, both old and new ToT
oh and a quick comic too cause why not
one more: bonus greenflower yuri
thanks for coming to read this far :) there'll be more soon
#ninjago#lloyd garmadon#ninjago lloyd#brad tudabone#ninjago brad#lloyd x brad#ninjago greenflower#greenflowershipping#forgivenshipping#forgivenship#evan's art!#evan rambles!

[SUMMARY: After roughly taking your virginity, Joel keeps his promise in showing you new things.]
âYou have any idea how many times Iâve fought myself to pull out?â
Part 3
Smut
It had been a few weeks now since you so unexpectedly lost your virginity to Joel. The two of you found yourselves having sex any chance you could and anywhere you could. Joel ached to feel himself in you at least once a day as you yearned for him. Ellie knew something was up as she would catch Joel staring at you when you werenât paying attention like he was in that very moment. Through the window he could see you planting more in the garden you made, he could tell you really enjoyed growing vegetables.
âWhy donât you just talk to her?â Ellie chuckled sitting beside Joel.
âHuh?â Joel looked over at her with a raised brow.
âYou keep staring at her, why donât you say something, donât just watch her like a creepâ Ellie pulled out a comic book and began flipping the pages. Joel held back a smile, if only she knew just how aquatinted the two of you already were with one another.
âYou know what Ellie, I think I will do thatâ Ellie shrugged just as you walked inside feeling like you had just walked into the middle of something.
âWhat are you guys doing?â You asked awkwardly as Ellie stood up.
âWell I was gonna go take a walk around the cabin, maybe sit up on a tree and readâ she made her way behind you quickly turning back to Joel giving him a wink. He couldnât help but look down and smirk as Ellie walked out slamming the door shut.
âDonât go too far!â You yelled out to her.
âDid you say something to her about us?â You asked curiously.
âOf course notâ he chuckled as he stood up.
âSo what was that all about?â
âEllie caught me staring you, says im kinda obvious that I have a thing for youâ he smirked pulling you against his body.
âYou were staring at me?â You smiled looking up at him.
âLittle bitâ he leaned in and took your lips with his passionately. You moaned feeling him close before quickly pushing yourself back.
âShe can come back any minute, Joelâ
âI think she wanted to give us some time..â he raised his brows with excitement before conintuing to kiss you feeling him push you towards his bed.
âAre you sure?â You whispered in between kisses, he unbuttoned your pants pushing them off you.
âI wanna show you somethinââ he began to swirl his tongue beneath your earlobe making you moan.
âThat feel good?â He whispered.
âMhmâ you nodded. Slowly he pulled back looking down at you, his hands on your hips he guided you to sit down on the bed.
âLay backâ you did as he asked and watched as he unbuttoned his shirt throwing it to the side leaving him in a sleeveless white undershirt. Your hips slightly squirmed at the sight of his bare arms, you could already feel yourself aroused.
Joel leaned over you with his hands by your head, your legs eager to pull him in you.
âNot yet darlinââ he whispered in a way that made you shiver.
âWhy not?â You asked with a slight look of desperation making him chuckle. Without responding he bought himself down to his knees at the edge of the bed and unexpectedly pulled your legs toward him.
âWhat are you doing?â You asked confused as you noticed he placed his face between your legs. His dark eyes met yours as you felt the warmth of his breath against your inner thigh.
âIâm gonna make you cum, babyâ and just like that you felt his tongue slide down your slit making you gasp. Parting your lips with his tongue he began to slowly tease your clit. Joel was waiting for the perfect time to taste you not wanting to be rushed. Your legs sitting on his shoulders, his hands squeezing your thighs as he watched you feel his tongue devour you. Youâve had women tell you how good this can feel if a man knew what he was doing and you could definitely say Joel knew exactly what he was doing. Flicking his tongue, you moaned unexpectedly reaching down driving your fingers through his curls with the urge to somehow pull him closer to you.
âOh yesâŚâ closing your eyes you felt him begin to suck on your clit. He moaned watching you lost in pleasure, his moan making you feel a vibration that only intensified the sensation on your clit. Not taking his eyes off you he reached his hand up beneath your shirt, grabbing your breast in the palm of his hand before teasing your nipple. Joel was a man that loved to provide the pleasure to a woman, watching you cum could get him off alone.
âJust like thatâ you moaned as his other hand found your other breast now teasing that nipple. The triple sensation only making you squirm uncontrollably, your hips jerking towards his face wanting more. He knew you were about to cum with how you grabbed onto him, that always seemed to give it away, holding onto him for dear life. Flicking his tongue and fingers on your nipples faster he waited for what he knew was seconds away. Arching your back you moaned in release practically squeezing his head with your thighs until your body relaxed.
Out of breath you lay flat for a moment until you felt Joel pull you up to your feet. Quickly he picked you up sitting you on a desk as you grabbed onto him still in a daze.
âThat wasâŚâyou whispered looking up at him noticing his beard filled with your cum as he placed himself between your legs.
âOh-you have-â your finger went on to touch his face but he quickly interrupted you with the sudden feel of him sliding in you.
âShit-â he spoke hoarsely feeling how wet you were. Joel wasted no time moving in a rythm that quickly built up the tingly sensation in the pit of your stomachâŚonly this time it was different. It felt a little stronger than you had ever felt before, each stroke bring it closer. He moved faster not breaking eye contact as you felt something intense take over.
âOh my god, Joel-â his breathing was loud and heavy as he continued thrusting his hips when you got the sudden urge to push him away, you screamed.
âSt-stop-â you cried out as he pulled out when you uncontrollably squirted on him taking him by surprise. He watched in awe as your body convulsed, your legs shaking as you squirted once more. Joel catching your legs from slipping off the desk as you held onto the table.
âJ-Joelâ your voice trembled still feeling the waves run through your body, you had never felt anything like it.
âIâm sorryâ you panted confused and slightly embarrassed with what had just happened making him quickly look up at you. Pulling your body towards him he slid himself back in and grabbed your face with his two hands making you look at him.
âDonât be,â Whatever had just happened, you could see it turned him on even more. He continued like he had never stopped. His eyes focused on you while he moved vigorously as you whimpered feeling it begin to build up all over again. Almost feeling like you couldnât handle it, it was all happening so fast.
You never thought anything else could feel better than when he made you cum but thisâŚthis took over every nerve in your body in a way you never expected.
âOh god-itâs gonna happen againâ you cried out as Joel pulled out once more and felt you squirt on him. His hands entangled in your hair, he leaned his forehead on yours as you held onto him.
âThatâs it baby, thatâs how I want you.â He whispered but you could barely speak. Kissing your shoulder and your neck, your arms wrapped around him as he buried himself in you once more. He moaned in your ear in a way you hadnât heard before, Joel knew he was about to cum but feeling you pulsating around him he lost complete control. His body moving too fast for you to keep up, you moaned digging your nails into his back when he suddenly stopped and grunted harshly.
âFuck-â he choked out. You gasped feeling his heart pounding against your chest, his hips jerking once more as his body slumped against yours.
âJoel?â You whispered confused as he panted still hiding his face against your neck. His release taking so much out of him he held still. Slowly he lifted his face up noticing you puzzled expression, yet he didnât say a word. Instead he kissed you passionately⌠his cock still throbbing inside you.
âYou alright?â He whispered knowing how new this was for you, he didnât mean for this to happen like this. You nodded as he leaned his lips on your cheek, slowly he slipped out of you and turned away grabbing a towel. Silently you got on your feet looking down at the mess that was made, before you had even finished cleaning yourself up Joel walked out slamming the door shut.
âJoel?!â You called out for him quickly dressing yourself, luckily as soon as you ran out he hadnât gone far.
âYouâre doing this again?!â You yelled out to him making him turn to you.
âFirst you take my virginity and walk off like an asshole and now you-â you found yourself struggling to say the words out loud.
âYou..you came in me and thatâs it? You walk away again with nothing to say?â
âI lost control, shouldnât have happenedâ he responded bluntly without looking at you directly.
âSo thatâs it, you lost control. Joel, what if I get pregnant? â his eyes quickly found yours with
your straightforward question. You began to sarcastically laugh as he remained silent.
âIs this what you do? Go around and screw women risking getting them pregnant and acting like nothing-â
âNoâ he cut you off calmly.
âOr did you think I was too stupid to not know what could happen if you did that? Which one is it-â
âNoâ he flared his nostrils trying to calm himself.
âOh no, maybe it was-â he suddenly grabbed you pushing you against the wall.
âYou have any idea how many times Ive fought myself to pull out? How many times I just wanted to keep you close?â His words and aggressiveness catching you off guard.
âDo you have any idea-â he cut himself off realizing a part of him selfishly did it only thinking about what he was starting to feel for you. A part of him realizing this wasnât just sex.
âIâm sorryâ he whispered with a hint of guilt in his eyes, his hands on your waist gently squeezing you. He knew this was all new to you and confusing and the last thing he wanted to do was complicate anything.
âI donât wanna lose youâ he suddenly blurt out. Joel had never felt this way about a woman so fast, he swore he never would again but something in him took overâŚsomething he couldnât shake off no matter how hard he tried.
âJoel..âyou whispered gently placing your hand on his face when Ellie appeared clearing her throat, yet this time he didnât pull away, he didnât even look away from you.
âShit..Ellie saw-â
âSo what. Let her seeâ his response surprising you.
âIâm not hiding this anymore, not from her..not from myself. You hear me?â You nodded silently, Joel left you speechless as Ellie quietly walked by and into the cabin. Looking behind you at Ellie, Joel turned your face back to him and kissed you, you could feel his eagerness, you could feel how he felt for you. Excitement rushed through you yet with hesitation and Joel sensed it but he promised himself he would be more open with you with ease.
âHeyâ he whispered tilting your face up.
âI wonât do that againâ you looked at him pressing your lips togetherâŚ.secretly wanting him to do so again.

LET'S TAKE FIVE.
ăăăăEIGHTEEN PLUS INTERACTIONS ONLY.
⢠skinny dipping in jackson.
the blistering heat of jackson's picnic days shows no mercy, patrol a burden on the backs of all rostered; it's a slow day, and you're dripping sweat. as far as you know, the infected souls don't appreciate the weather either â you haven't seen one all day. it has been nothing but a boring trip through the woods, yours and ellie's horses moving in slow trot, the two of you listening out only to find nothing promising.Â
the only promising scene you find ends up being the end of the trail. it has been the one highlight of the day, knowing at the end of your trail you'd greet a large, picturesque lake, cerulean water flowing from the rivermouth above the rocks that surround it. it has often been a place that teenagers in jackson decide to sneak out to, but you've only taken tedious trips here and back to town due to patrol.Â
"well," ellie chimes, voice strained and heavy with a sigh. it's been a quiet trip, nothing much on your mind for any topic of conversationâ hearing her voice startles you for a moment, and when you look her way, she's wiping sweat from her brow with the back of her hand. she squints her eyes to see beneath the sun's rays, surveying the area. "that was a huge waste of time. turning back after i sign us in?"
it looks so arcadian, the perfect solution to your discomfort, flowing waters shimmering under the late afternoon sun. as ellie heads into the isolated cabin to sign the patrol logs, you slide off your horse and leave her at the edge of the clearing with shimmer. your mind is set on the need to relieve yourself.
as she steps out of the cabin ellie finds your pack next to discarded sneakers at the edge of the grass, socks folded into the shoes and a trail of footprints in the sand, leading ellie all the way to the water's edge where you stand with eyes closed and hands on your hips. she almost doesn't want to interrupt, not quite sure whether you'll accept her pestering or mock it. usually it'll be the latter.
"so.. you ready to go back?" ellie asks, that silly habit of hers coming out to play â fingers twiddling and fidgeting, head tilted down though her eyes watch you intently.Â
as expected, you scoff. "no, let's just take a few minutes here, alright?" you say, but it doesn't take much to convince ellie of anything. "need a break. a rest. it's too hot out here, el."
"ah, yeah, i guess," she murmurs, looking around. "five minutes." god forbid you let your guard down for a minute in this world, you'll pay the price for it someday, and ellie's not about to let that day be today. this is patrol, after all. though it's not uncommon for there to be days like this where there's no sign of anything or anyone, sometimes a runner or two have their ways of stirring the pot. "how's the water?"
"yeah, nice." you take a step out of the water for a moment, nimble fingers reaching for the fly of your shorts. "cool."
"whatâ" ellie is comically perplexed, brows knit and lips scrunched in her disgruntlement. "what are you doing? you're not going swimmingâŚ"
you ignore ellie, instead throwing the denim behind you in haphazard fashion, your t-shirt following. she's accepted perhaps taking a brief recess before heading back, not wanting to be out too long. ellie truly can't argue against cooling off, not when she can feel her skin burn under the sun. so she gives a sigh despite her lips curling up the slightest bit, starting to untie her shoelaces.Â
in the midst of stripping to her tank top and underwear, ellie's eyes catch white cotton fly past, and she jumps back in utter shock. she looks up, and for lack of better word, is greeted with ass. your body in its purest form, bare of any clothing. not like she's never seen it, but a rush of crimson floods her speckled cheeks and she whines.
"the fuck are you doing? babe? what if someone sees?"Â
"so what if someone sees? there's nobody around," you say with a shrug of your shoulders. you waste no time walking into the water once again, humming at the relief it provides your sweltering skin. "come on. it's really nice in here.."
ellie stares, saucer-wide eyes watching you venture into the lake like some sort of nymph, arms open to embrace the waterbody in all its serenity. she huffs a short sigh before following quickly, undressing to complete nothing.
"this is stupid," ellie murmurs as she swims after you, but maybe she's just having a pout because of how easily this got to her. it is stupid, but she'll be damned if she doesn't take the opportunity presented to share such a moment. it's silent if not for the rustling leaves of trees and the birds singing along to the outpour of the waterfall. and you're more laidback than ever, unafraid of being caught; letting the tranquility take over and calm your senses.
and with such comfortability in the air, she allows herself permission to relax, taking in the vulnerability and expressing it with a soft smile in your direction, hand in firm rest on your shoulder. all that follows are the most ardent of kisses to your lips and peppered along your neck, heated enough to compete with the sun. she's ready to start rushing you home again.
