#I'll work on my SS part soon

[aristocratic-otter]

Thank you, @cutestkilla, @nausikaaa, @that-disabled-princess, @youarenevertooold, @fatalfangirl and @whatevertheweather for the tags!

So, once again, no snippets from Saving Simon Snow or The Heart in the Well (still reviewing them to figure out where I want to go), but I've got double chunks of TikTok Dancer and Stars, Flowers, and Children for you (and a normal sized slice of Snow Fox. The next chapter is so close to being ready for posting!).

Then there's COBB and Erotic Gropefest coming. I've got my idea for COBB, and I've already outlined a fic for EG. Big hint...it was one of the unfinished fics I teased in a 'what are your WIPs' last year. And the one I got the most feedback saying people wanted me to write it! I reviewed my fic ideas folder and decided this one is perfect for EG.

And, I've got a question. I've got more than enough content on both TikTok Dancer and Stars, Flowers, and Children, and I know where I'm going on what's left for each, so I'll likely start posting one of them soon. Feel free to leave your vote on which one in the tags, and I'll consider it!

With no further ado, here's 12 sentences from TikTok Dancer

I frown. Surely a troop of dancers on Santa Monica pier isn’t that extraordinary. “Why wouldn’t I believe it?” I ask.

Dev’s hardly listening to me. “I mean, I knew that there was a chance we’d see celebrities in LA. I mean, this is a celebrity breeding ground, right? But right in front of our hotel? And we get to see them filming?” He turns to me as if expecting me to enthusiastically agree with him. I’m beginning to understand that I’m missing some context here.

“What celebrities?” I ask weakly. 

Dev and Niall both freeze, goggling at me in disbelief. This time, Niall recovers first. “You mean you’ve been watching them through the window and didn’t recognise Simon Snow, Agatha Wellbelove and Shepard Love?”

I wrinkle my nose. “Those sound like made-up names.”

Some young Baz yearning, from Stars, Flowers, and Children:

It’s in our fifteenth year that we both finally have growth spurts. Simon’s indignant that, even after he grows several inches, I’m still taller than him by at least three inches. But, not that I’ve got anything but memory to judge by, but I think we’re both man-high. 

But height isn’t the only thing that changes about Simon Snow. I wish it was. 

But no, Simon has now grown from the freckled street urchin with shorn hair that I first saw on board the SS Watford to a full-grown man, with everything that goes with that. He’s powerfully muscular because of all his building work, and his skin is burnished gold from hours in the sun. His bronze hair is grown out into ringlets that are also kissed by the sun. And all the stars of the universe are scattered across his skin in a host of golden-brown freckles and moles. 

Even his blue eyes, though they’re nothing special when it comes to colour, are such a contrast to his sun-darkened skin that they stand out from his face with a lambent light.

From Snow Fox (the smut is done, I just have to get Baz out of the sticky situation I've put him in).

Tarleton is a horrific bore. The arse only talks about himself–his achievements, his family background, his personal wealth. He hasn’t asked a single thing about me this entire time. When our steaks are dropped in front of us by a bellicose server, I’m grateful for a chance to look at something other than his insipid face. I eat slowly, delicately. I don’t want to get to the part of this ‘date’ where Tarleton suggests we retire to a paid room in the local hotel.

🌴Lucky Palms🌴

Friends (Last part for now)

Clark took his car, which he had left at Marisol's just a few days ago. And like many other people, he too had a preference for older models and so he fulfilled a dream a long time ago. Even if it was quite expensive, especially the restoration of the '68 Chevrolet Camaro SS Convertible. But money doesn't stink, as the saying goes.

When Clark arrived at Oscar's, he was a little surprised and also shocked. "Tell me… Is there any reason for your child to be lying on the floor?"/ "I didn't want to take him out into the blazing sun, I just wanted to get something from the car". Clark stood open-mouthed in front of his friend. "Then you could have just put him in bed. Oh man, I think you're a bit overwhelmed, huh? Where's Vivienne?"/ "Working"

Clark went to the little one and picked him up. "Really, she's going back to work so soon after giving birth? I thought she was taking time to enjoy being a mother first"/ "no, she's probably urgently needed at the institute and I have to get to grips with my role as a father first"/ "I have to do that too, okay? But I'm not just going to leave my child on the floor". Oscar was terribly uncomfortable with the whole situation and he was ashamed of it. "sorry, I…"…

Clark went to Oscar and gave his son back into his arms. "Here, believe me, it's not that hard, okay?". Oscar held his son and looked at him. The little boy seemed happy and alert. "h-hh, I'm sorry, I'm a bad father"/ "Ow man, calm down now, nothing else has happened and I won't tell anyone, okay?"/ "O.k…. Thanks, I'll… I'll bring him inside".

Oscar put his son to bed. And Clark was almost a little overwhelmed because he hardly recognized his old room. "Rainbow colors, really?"/ "I know, it would be too colorful for me too, but Vivi thought it would be good for his eyes to get used to the colorful world out there…"/ "If I were a baby, I'd close my eyes, these colors would drive me crazy"

Clark looked at the rainbow on the wall for a moment and grinned inwardly. He thought back to the conversation with Marisol when he said that it was okay if his son was gay. "Hey, where are your thoughts right now?"/ "Sorry, somewhere else. How did you both come up with the name Trenton anyway?".

"aah, that wasn't really my idea. Vivienne thought he absolutely had to have the name she'd read about in a book. "/"Does she decide everything about the little one?"/"huh? No, of course not. I find the name interesting, and the guy in her book had quite a charisma. She thinks our son is a bit like him." Clark shook his head with a smile. "o.k….I almost wanted to call ours Jimmy".

"Jimmy? Because of Hendrix?"/ "hehe, exactly. Well, that was the first thing that came to my mind, but I didn't have time to suggest the name to her. I was just too perplexed when I saw him there for the first time."/ "Yeah well, but Enrico is great too…"/ "Rico, I'll always call him Rico . and Enrico when he's get cheeky, haha".

Oscar realized how happy his best friend was. "Hehe… You're going to be a great dad, Clark"/ "hey, you too, huh? Just spend a bit more time with him, then something like before won't happen again." After these words, Oscar looked at his son again. "I do, but babies sleep a lot"/ "then use the time when he's awake, okay. You wouldn't believe how much the little ones are already aware of. And if you have any problems or questions…".

"… Then you can always ask me or Marisol for help"/ "You're probably already the baby pros, hehe"/ "Well, maybe not pros, but not amateurs either, the baby course has really proved its worth. She just sent me a picture… oh man, the little one is amazing."/ "well, it can happen that quickly. Thank you. especially for your support".

The two of them left the children's room and continued talking in the living room. "How are your therapies going?"/"Oh, quite well. It's just weird talking to nine other people in a circle. But we all have the same problem, triggered by other problems…"/ "And are the anonymous alcoholics really that anonymous?" / "hehe. Well, not quite. After a therapy session, some of them still meet up together somewhere".

"hopefully not to drink, hehe"/ "sure, water, coffee, tea… mostly in the park. but I always go home afterwards, I don't want to miss anything here"/ "very good. Just keep at it, okay? I just wanted to stop by for a moment."/ "Do you have to go home again?"/ "No, to the jeweler"/ "Do you need new earrings?"…

"Rings yes, but not for my ears". Oscar looked at him questioningly for a moment. But then something dawned on him. "What, you want… really?"/ "Well, not today and not tomorrow, but I at least want to have them in my pocket.". Oscar nodded in agreement and smiled "Yeah, it would be a bit early to ask her now…"/ "Exactly. But please don't tell anyone, okay?"/ "No, don't worry".

Clark left again. He was sure that Oscar was back on the right track. When his little son called out loudly from the room, he apologized and wanted to take care of him straight away. So they said goodbye and planned to meet again soon. A lot has changed for Clark in the last few months. He has grown up a bit more. And he knows what is even more important in life than just music. He doesn't want to give up his passion, but he does want to cut back a little. For now, he is concentrating on his little family.

We are now leaving Lucky Palms for an indefinite period of time. If anyone would like me to stop by again, please let me know. But I also have to manage and organize my time well. So be patient with me. For now, I'll continue with Sunset Died for a while.

If I can't marry my beloved girl, then... I'll follow in my master's footsteps and be alone my whole life. WOH, episode 14, part 10. Young men from the sects talk in the courtyard of the Yueyang sect. ZY wants to embarrass CWN at all costs, and CWN doesn't want to let that happen and is ready to attack ZY, who replies that he's stopping persecuting CWN. ZY tells WX that he has to prepare for the Heroes' Conference and adds that WX has a long journey behind him so he should rest, and then ZY invites him to join them. Both students exchange ceremonial bows. ZY turns to CWN and tells him that next time they'll return to "The Adventures of Lovelace," then runs away from CWN, who wants to catch him, but who decides not to run with ZY. CWN asks WX not to listen to the nonsense that ZY is telling. After a while, CWN reveals that he's met a girl he really cares about. WX asks them not to talk about it. WX explains that his father returned to Qingfeng Mountain at night. Instead, the master will represent the Qing Feng Sword Sect at the Conference. CWN asks why. Before WX can answer, ZY approaches them again and says that he almost forgot something again. He explains that he heard the younger students say that Miss Xiang is sick and in the hospital. CWN, surprised, asks what happened. ZY tells CWN not to worry because GCL is with her. He adds that that's all and says goodbye with a ceremonial bow. CWN repeats the words that Xiang is sick. WX tells CWN that one sentence is enough and CWN immediately loses his head. Jianghu is in chaos, and CWN is a man who focuses all his energy in the wrong place. WX scolds CWN for having no ambitions. CWN calmly replies that everyone has their own ambitions and adds that if he can't marry his beloved girl, he will follow in the footsteps of his master and will be alone his whole life. CWN firmly states that even if he achieved mastery in martial arts and became the best warrior in the world, then... WX, irritated, interrupts his speech and asks if CWN is criticizing the master and that he has no respect for his elders. He adds that CWN is becoming more and more rebellious. CWN looks away, surprised by such a reprimand. WX tells him that it's all right now and CWN should leave. Delighted, CWN asks if he can really go and thanks him for it, declaring that he will be back soon. Then he quickly runs ahead. At the Five Lakes Alliance monument, there is a group of students from the Yueyang Sect who are working to properly prepare this place for the Heroes' Conference. Someone calls for everyone to focus. Some students are cleaning the monument, others are carrying wine in jugs. Someone gives orders to clean up and wipe the monument clean. Storm clouds gather over the place and it starts to thunder. We also see that SS has appeared here and is looking at the monument. Someone is still shouting for everyone to hurry up. SS reads the inscriptions on the monument, draws attention to the Dagu Shan Sect inscription. After a while, one of the students calls and asks him why the Five Lakes Monument is so dirty. We see here that CWN is a simple boy who cannot hide his feelings and expresses them clearly, despite being scolded for it. He does not understand how someone can put anything else before love for another person. But as a responsible student, he decides to obey the rules of the sect. Meanwhile, on the orders of GC, preparations are underway for the Heroes' Conference, which is to show the power of the Five Lakes Alliance. That is why GC and SS want everything to be perfectly prepared. SS personally oversees the cleaning of the monument. It turns out that in the Alliance, people do not matter, only appearances and the desire to maintain power.

SS TOA STYLE [Sinful] Did Cy get the snow melting, if you know what I mean? Wink Wink [Sweet] What was his favorite part of ToA?

(Cy got asked this a few times so I am going to @ the others who asked similar questions below)

There was no one favorite part of ToA. He loved working the Tart booth and meeting and flirting with so many people. The performances were steller, dancing the night away in the snow and snuggling under a mound of blankets were all top notch experiences. I'll let him tell of a favorite sweet memory.

"Working the booths at ToA was so fun, but its a lot of hard work while also needing to stay in one place and sometimes you just want to run. One night as the booths were closing up I went over to Leon's booth. The poor guy had been eating candied shoes the whole day and he had this manic sugar rush going on. He was practically jittering with it. I know that when I get like that, the only thing that helps settle me is a good run. But running as a biped in the snow is bleh, so I shifted to cat and booped Leon and raced away a few yards. You know, the classic tag, you're it! Leon did not disappoint and soon shifted to his cat and chased me hard! We ran and pounced and wrestled in a classic game of chase, just two big cat druids rolling in the snow."

Now for the sinful portion of the question

Did Cy melt some snow? Yes absolutely. Heh did you want more? Well lets see....very sexually charged and happy to share elf at a tournament of thousands? So many choices. Not to mention several of his very sexy lovers and FwB's were also there in attendance and the Tart's tent was practically an orgy just waiting for naked bodies to arrive. I'll keep it simple. Yes. Every night. Some new, some favorites. My tent or yours. No walks of shame though it is hard to strut in the snow.

World's Most Beautiful Mirror | Episode 2

Reminiscence. A few days ago, in the corridor of Seisoukan

Hinata: Ooh. Heeey! Yuuta-kun hey...ya...?

Please, open the door! Don't you want to talk with your brother? If you really don't want to talk to me, I'll make you the older brother just for today, 'kay?

Big bro! Big bro! If you don't come out soon, I'm going to hate ya~♪

...No reply! Not even a single angry noise! This has become a cold concrete jungle!

Somebody help~ My sweet cute little sibling has become a shut-in~ Uuh, uuh, uuh (with a crying voice).

Yuuta: ...Could you please not make strange noises in front of other people's rooms?

Hinata: Aah! Yuuta-kun! I really wanted to see you...☆

Yuuta: And I didn't want to. When I see Aniki's face, I get depressed because it reminds me of the Yuuta Aoi, who exposed his attitude in "SS".

Hinata: It's not really an ugly sight though? Sure, we got our asses kicked in the main competition, but nobody expected us to actually get through it.

And it's even the top talk on the internet. "Surprise!" and "Unexpected!", something along those lines.

Of course, those who have been our fans for a long time are overjoyed with the results we got.

And for the other units' fans, it seems like it was a very surprising outcome to them, too?

The place where we were placed in the qualifying round was also a hell stage full of strong people, huh~?

Yuuta: How can you look at the internet so soon after the disastrous "SS", Aniki?

Hinata: My liver is the same size as Yuuta-kun's. I've said it many times, but it wasn't a bad fight. Rather, it was a nice fight for us.

In fact, we got a new job because of our success! Look, look! A proposal!

Yuuta: A new job...? I'm not really in the mood for this, though...?

Hinata: Pros don't work based on their moods!

Yuuta: That's true... Hm? I haven't opened my "Hold Hands" for a while, so I've never seen this proposal before.

What is this? A request to appear in "Volcano Island"?

Hinata: Yep, yep! You're in shock, aren't ya~? I can't believe we've been asked to be on that show again! I thought it was a mistake in sending the e-mail or something, so I emailed them back!

Yuuta: "Volcano Island" is that stupid show that even though we're a twin idol unit, they only asked one of us to appear in it, right?

Hinata: You're so foul-mouthed! There was a lot going on! It's such a famous show that just having one of us on that show is a prestigious honor, you know~?

Our fan base grew rapidly after appearing on that show, and it was also thanks to that, we were able to get good results on "SS".

You should be grateful they let us perform, Yuuta-kun.

And that also means that we were recognized for our individual abilities, without the rarity as twins backing us up.

In my opinion, it has to be one of the greatest achievements in the history of "2wink".

Yuuta: Hm.... Since they only said that the one appearing on that show was the "older brother Hinata", it seems like you're the only one who got famous in my opinion, though.

Well, I don't really care if it's just you. And I'd rather not let someone else take the credit for it.

But, if us twins have too different opinions of each other, it'd be unbalanced, so this time, let me just play my part as the "younger brother Yuuta".

I'd feel bad if your reputation went down as soon as I appeared on that show though.

Hinata: In that case, I think Yuuta-kun should just be Hinata-kun from now on!

Yuuta: Can you not hand over my existence that casually? And that's basically my point, Aniki.

Hinata: Fufufu. Alsooo... this time it wasn't just me or Yuuta-kun, but both brothers were asked to appear.

And it seems like it's also an apology for only letting one of us appear on the show last time.

Yuuta: It's too late for that now. It's always, always like this, whenever, whoever.

And the fact that this programme was well-received, but they have ignored us until now, but as soon as we made our mark with "SS", they asked us to appear on the show, which is highly suspicious.

And an apology? Do you really think they feel bad? Aren't they just saying that as those random social commentary ways of saying you're sorry?

It's like giving a candy bar to a child who's in a bad mood, you know?

Hinata: I'm totally inflected... If you're feeling unmotivated or unwilling in any way, I'd normally turn down the request, what should I do?

I will always put Yuuta-kun's wishes first, no, I want to, always.

Yuuta: You've been very rebellious lately... Even in "SDS", you were doing things on your own.

But anyway, although I personally don't like the idea, "Volcano Island" is still a very famous show. Not appearing on it is not an option.

Hinata: Riiight~ The "producer" of the show seems to be a big shot, or rather someone who is liked by the big names in the industry.

What if we offend them and they hang us out to dry?

Yuuta: Too many possibilities... Hm, what a pain in the neck, huh?

But, I'd hate to be a good kid now and put on a sparkling smile and say, "It's such an honor to be on this show!".

Even so, I'd like to make them so shocked that they wouldn't be able to say a thing. Every one of them.

Hinata: Oooh~ Yuuta-kun has become a knife-like teenager who hurts everything he touches.

But don't worry, big bro will help Yuuta-kun in every way.

Yuuta: No need, I need to be sharp on my own now.

...Aah, I just thought of a really nice idea ♪

Hey, Aniki. What do you say? It's our one of a kind prank...

Whacky Gotham, Goofy New York, and Chaotic Paris

(Part 1) (Part 2) (Part 3) (Part 4) (Part 5) (Part 6) (Part 7)

Chapter 3: Kindred Spirits Always Find A Way To Assemble

•—–—–†–—–—•

Time: 5:30am

location: Louvre

Ladybug, Abeille, Bunnyx, Trickster, and Chat Noir are fighting an akuma, not anything major, just Mr. Pigeon and his pigeons trying to melt the Louvre with deadly acidic bird dropings, so yeah, nothing major. Just another early bird gets the akuma kinda day...

"Looks like the early bird is trying to melt the Louvre, what say you M'lady, shall we make this swift and- *Loud sneeze* Let me now *sneeze* when I'm *sneeze* needed" - Chat Noir

"For to long our kind has been oppressed, they feed us miserable seeds, when we beg for bread, we shall show them no mercy, as our justice shall be swift!" picks up two pigeons, holds them by their legs and aims the rear cannons "Surrender your Miraculous and your justice shall be swift and painless!!" with an evil villain laugh at the end bla bla bla.

" Anyone else getting Pigeon (French) Revolution vibes? No? just me? Cause I swear he said seeds instead of cake."

"Not the time Bunnyx." - Abeille

"Oh it so Is The Time." - Bunnyx

"Off with Mr. Pigeon Antoinette's Akumatized object!" - Chat Noir from a distance.

"Viva La Revolution!!!" - Trickster

"Dear Kwami, how did it come to a frickin Pigeon Revolution?!" - Ladybug

As the last line is said, Mr. Pigeon fires the -ehem- cannons at the heroes, only for them to be an illusion. In the confusion Bunnyx pops out of her burrow and wacks Mr. Pigeon on the head, effectively knocking him out.

"The Pigeon Revolution is over, we have taken back our home, and shall continue to defend it from the creepy Man of MOTH!!!!" - Bunnyx

and with that Bunnyx brakes the Akumatized object, and Ladybug purifies the akuma.

"Ok, I will admit that last speach was funny, now lets hurry back before hells bells go off." - Ladybug

•~—~—~—~—~—~—~•

" Bla bla bla, nothing important, bla bla bla bla, yada yada yada bla yada." - Mrs. Bustier

"'Viva La Revolution', that was perfect." - Whispering Alix

"It just came to me, but Chats 'Off with Mr. Pigeon Antoinette's Akumatized object' line and your 'Man of Moth' speech were really well timed !" -whispering Peter

"well of course, I'm always punctual with any time sensitive joke/pun." -whispering Alix

"Will you to zip it! we can't have these simpletons finding anything out!" -whispering Chloé

"Please, they all share a broken defective regect of a brain cell, I doubt they could ever put two and two together." -whispering Alix

"Hey, do you think we should start a protest in our classroom?" -whispering Peter

"... Viva.La.Revolution!" - whispering Chloé with a mischievous grin

"No." - Maria

•~—~—~—~ Later when Mrs. Bustier is out of class ~—~—~—~•

"I just don't know what to do." - Lie-la

" You think she finally realized how horrible that hair style is?" - Alix

"After visiting Gotham a few months ago I met Damian Wayne, you might've heard about him, he's just so amazing, kind-hearted, and brave. We had a wonderful time, but then he asked me out! And I don't want to hurt Parkers feelings, I care for both of them!" - Lie-la

"Man, she must be extremely full of it to keep pulling that sh-t out of her @ss every hour or so." - Alix

"Wow Peter, didn't know your cared for Ms. Rossi like that" - Chloé said in a sarcastic tone.

" I'd rather strap her to a supersonic rocket heading for a black hole, and I'm pretty sure this Damian Wayne would do the same... he probably has the money for it actually." - Peter

" Enough plotting, we still need to get enough money, if we want that summer trip, we've already crossed off: Baking sales, becoming a mime, jobs are out unless they're fine with you leaving right after joining, and we can't just ask for donations." - Maria

" I can use my MDC mon-" - Maria

"Oh hell no you won't! You worked your butt off to get that money, you said it yourself! That money is for when you apply to college! I refuse to let you waste your money on our ignoramus classmates!" - Chloé

Thankfully by now everyone was out of the classroom.

" Oh Kwami she's serious, she never uses her big words!" - Adrien

" Then what do you suggest Chloé?" - Maria

" I'll ask daddy to pay!" - Chloé

" I can also ask my father, he'll probably do it if Mr. Bourgeois puts in a donation." - Adrien

" But- " - Maria

" No! The decision is final all in agreement say aye!" - Chloé

"Aye!" - Everyone

"You've watched to many movies Chloé, fine, but please don't drastically overdo it." - Maria

" When have I ever drastically overdone something? Name one time." - Chloé

"Well, there was the time you over did it, by not sleeping for almost three weeks." - Maria

" and after that you got so fed up with one akuma that you kicked him with the force of a thousand suns down unda, you may have scared him for life after that honestly. " - Adrien

" Oh! or the time you went overboard with Peters B-day, and the cake landed on his face! - Alix

"Well in her defense, the cake was great, but it was kinda a mouthful." -Peter

"... I said name one time. (ー_ー)" - Chloé

•~—~—~—~—~—~—~•

Sooo, after all that happened Mr. Bourgeois, Fallowed by Gabriel Agreste, gave a very generous donation, so that solves that problem.And since I'm sure you don't want to see (More Lies) boring stuff, lets skip to two days before the trip begins.

〜(꒪꒳꒪)〜time skip " You're welcome, I'm here all eternity." - Bunnyx〜(꒪꒳꒪)〜

•—–· At Chloés Hotel ·–—•

"Ok are we sure we have everything?" - Maria

" Yes now can we please watch something already, we've triple, and even quadruple checked everything, we're good." - Alix

" I have to go out and inform Tempête and Vipère, before anything else, be back soon." - Maria then heads out calling upon the other heroes.

" So what do you need?" - Vipère

" Do you have a top secret mission for us?" - Tempête

" For the summer Abeille, Bunnyx, Trickster, and Chat Noir will be unavailable, unless they are truly needed, I however will be able to travel back and forth via portals for fights. Paris will be in your care while we aren't here." - Ladybug

"It is our honor, we shall defend Paris with our lives." - Tempête

" Agreed, enjoy your summer." - Vipère

"Thank you, stay safe."  and with that Maria headed back to the hotel prepared to watch movies, only to be bombarded with questions as soon as she got back.

" HOLD UP! You know MAGIC?!" - Alix

" When were you going to tell us?!" - Chloé

"So cool, how does it work?" - Peter

" Can you teach us?!" - Adrien

" Spots-Off, yes I know magic, I swear I've told you before. Do you want a demonstration?" - Maria

They all shook their heads excitedly.

" Ok well, I'm able to Heal myself if I get hurt, but I don't wish to hurt myself just for that, I can also increase my Luck with magic, as well as Communicate/ Manipulate plants, and see peoples Souls, thanks to Tikki. I learned Protection magic thanks to Wayzz, and Illusion magic thank  to Trixx. I'm also learning Teleportation from Kaalki, which I've almost completed, and Mutitude from Mullo, which still needs work." - Maria

" If you can really talk to plants, what did we do earlier while you where out, hmmmmm?" - Alix

Maria then walks over to the roses near the couch and whispers to them, after a moment she turns back to her friends, and calmly says "Traitors."

" What do you mean?" - Peter

" You continued watching Star Wars: Clone Wars Without me!" - Maria

" Ok we believe you, but does this mean we can also use magic?" - Adrien

"Hmmm, let me see" as she says this her eyes start to glow an almost ethereal icy blue.

" Why are you eyes glowing?" - Chloé

"Looking at you souls... ok" she then claps her hands and her eyes go back to normal "Adrien, you can use slight Destruction magic on objects, if you use it on a person it would just cause them extreme pain, you can also cast Bad Luck on someone, so I guess thats good, and you can also learn slight Jubilation magic. Peter you can learn Illusion, and Protection magic. Chloé you can Learn Subjection, and Multiplication magic. And Alix, you can learn Evolution, Intuition, and Teleportation magic." As Maria finished, she saw the star struck looks in their eyes at the thought of learning magic became obtainable for them.

"Teach us!" they all bowed only to get a laugh from Maria in response.

"You would have to ask the Kwamis that, I only know what I know thanks to them." - Maria

And for most of the night they all started practicing magic. And when they woke up, they continued to practice, they had fun and were really enjoying it.

Then came the day Maria and her friends were to head for Gotham, and it was hectic, but everyone made it in one piece after an 8 hour flight, which at this point Maria was glad she sent all of her important luggage ahead of time, because somehow her luggage with only her toiletries and pyjamas was stolen, so all she had now was her back pack on her and the Miracle box in a Pocket dimension (thanks to the training from Fluff and Kaalki)

Lila was annoyed, when Maria didn't even care that she lost her bag with all her stuff (jokes on you she sent that one to the hotel 2 days ago HA!) they ended up checking into the hotel, everyone was with someone, Peter was with Adrien, Chloé was with Alix, and Maria... just had the Kwamis, yup that's right, apparently Lila has a condition that prevents her from being in any room below a quality vip room, so now she was upgrade and without a roommate, good for Lila, and Lucky for Maira, because now she doesn't have to worry about someone noticing her climbing out the window to go free-running across rooftops as Multimouce.

Around 7:30 pm. everyone heads out for lunch... and they leave Maria behind.

"Of course this happens." and with that she asked the receptionist for the directions to where her class went, afterwards she went out and proceeded to get lost, after trying to retrace her steps, she just got lost quicker, and her phone was at 20% what luck.

After walking for a little bit, she had decided to take a break, and as she leaned up against a wall, she closed her eyes.

'Maybe if I search for the receptionists Soul I can find my way back.' as she was doing this, she saw souls of all colors walking by, she even noticed a dark emerald green soul, and a dark blue soul across the street on a rooftop... and then she felt her hair stand on end, a few feet to her right was a bloody rust looking soul, she could tell it was a male, late 20s, average build, and 5'11, he was targeting her. As she opened her eyes  she did a quick scan of her seroundings, noticing an alley, she started to walk again. Sensing the slight increase in speed from the man now behind her, as he got closer, she made a sharp left into the alley, she made it a few feet in before the man started laughing and walking closer, she saw the disgusting look in his eyes, and the outline of a gun in his front left pocket.

"Come on now girlie,  I just wanna talk."

" I am good thankz." she made sure to add an accent to make him feel like he had an upper hand, which seemed to work, if his sickening smile was anything to go off of.

He stepped closer and Maria (the little genius she was) decided to act nervous, which only lowered the guys gaurd even more, once he reached to grab her in a quick motion she proceeded to do this.

She held the guy in a lock until he fell unconscious. As she stood up, she noticed a hand reaching for her, she then grabbed the hand and flipped the figure over her shoulder hard, hearing a yelp from the man as she did so.

When she realized who she had flipped over, her face turned bright red

"Mon dieu, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you are you ok Monsieur Nightwing?!"

"Yeah I'm fine and don't apologize, reflexes like that are key to survival here in Gotham, isn't that right Robin.... Robin?"

When Nightwing didn't get any sound from Robin he looked over to see the boy a blushing mess, then Robin snaped out of it, cuffing the mugger, and turning his attention to the girl.

" Ehem. Mam it's dangerous to be out here at this time alone, please allow us to take you wherever you need to go." - Robin

"Oh thank you um, do you know where Wayne Hotel is? I was supposed to go with my class to dinner, but they... “forgot” me, I decided to try and meet up with them, but I failed horribly." - Maria

"Wait they just left you? and in Gothan of all cities?! What kind of teacher does that?!" - Nightwing

" An instegator." - Maria said under her breath in French, she didn't notice the slight shock on both their faces from what she said.

"Anyway lets get you to your hotel before it gets any later." - Nightwing

"Thank you again." - Maria

She arrived safely, thanks to Nightwing and Robin, she thanked them one more time and went inside, when she got to her room she found her friends pacing back and forth in the room, Chloé and Peter looking like they would soon become two people on a mission to find her, but thankfully she was back, she of course had to answer alot of questions, but that was no big deal. After answering all their questions, everyone went to their rooms, and fell asleep, they had a big day tomorrow afterall... ... and then Marias' Akuma alert went off, ok so it took about thirty minutes to defeated the akuma 2 more before she could cure anything and another 5 minutes before she could head back to her room, and it was now 2am, but she could still wake up early right? hehe (・–・;) right?

No, the answer was no she couldn't, well technically she was up on time for when the bus "should" have started getting ready to leave, BUT turns out Lila SOMEHOW, managed to get everyone on board without even thinking of her an hour early! Maria asked for directions once again, and the receptionist had a worried and apologetic look on her face, Maria thanked her again, and headed out, this time however, she made it without getting lost and without getting mugged, Yay! She even had enough time to get a coffe (Tim special was a wierd name but oh well it did the job pretty well) from a shop near by (double yay!) before entering the WE building.

" You have to start the tour! we've been here for an hour and thirty minutes already!" - Ms. Bustier

"Like I said before, I will not start the tour until your student gets back, and if they don't get back, then we better hope nothing happened to them, or else it's your fault for your negligence." - Tour guide

"Sorry I'm late, the bus left earlier than what we scheduled, why didn't you inform me about the change?" - Maira

"Lila said you were the one who made the changes and that you were just trying to get attention, I am VERY disappointed in you Maria, now apologize to your class for delaying the tour!" - Ms Bustier

"I think you mean “I'm sorry we left you behind in a city where murder happens to young kids on a daily basis” now you apologize to Your student that is Your responsibility." - Tour Guide with a glare that could kill a thousand armys

Ms. Bustier proceeded to apologise to half the class's disbelief.

"Alright then, now that thats all taken care of, Hello and welcome to Wayne Enterprise, where we focus on making Gotham and the world a better place. I'm Dick Grayson, and I'll be you tour guide for today."

As the tour went on Maria stood at the front with her friends, she took notes of everything that was said, and she ignored whatever nonsense Lila was spouting, somthing about saving or dating Damian Wayne, she didn't really care.

When the lunch break came, she sat with her friends until she needed a long overdo refill on her coffee, she walked over to the coffee machine and started figuring what combination will keep her brain working for the rest of the day.

"Press button 3 followed by 5, 6, 8, 1, 2, 4, 9, and 7, that is the ultimate coffee mixture, if your mortal self is up for the challenge." - Sleep deprived guy

"I accepte." she presses the buttons in the exact order and then " Wait none of the cups are big enough."

"Here, secrect cup, from beyond the mortal realm." - Sleep deprived guy

" Thanks" she grapped the very large cup, and filled it with coffee till it was almost to the rim, she put the lid on and instantly took a big sip from the scolding hot coffee (she can heal, her tongue's fiiiiiiine)

"... Not bad, taste similar to the Tim Special I had earlier, but maybe a bit stronger." - Maria

" Kindred Spirit, let us be friends, you have drank the sacred coffee and are now immortal, congrats." - Sleep deprived guy

"It was not easy, but I have come this far, and I shall go the distance with nothing but coffee in my veins." Maria said in a serious tone as they shook hands "I am Maria, keeper of all nighters, and who might you be, my kindred spirit."

"I am Tim, the keeper of sacred coffee and all that is unholy."

"It was an honor to meet you Sacred Tim, may the coffee gods guide you in your journey, sadly we must part ways, for the lunch break is over, farewell..." and with that Maria left to rejoin the group.

"Dear god where the hell did you get that much coffee?!" - Chloé

"Kindred Spirits always find a way to assemble." - Maria

"Huh, so there is someone out there who is also a sleep deprived child." - Alix

The tour continued, and Maria noticed their tour guide kept looking at her with growing concern as she slowly made her way through the lovely coffee, she finished the cup within 1 hour and 30 minutes, and most of the staff kept looking at her as she now held the empty unholy cup, that was said to put people (that weren't chosen by the coffee gods) into caffeine induced commas, but she was fine, if anything she was more awake than yesterday and today combined. So yeah Today had a rocky start, but I'd say things are only just beginning.

He's trying his best.

Part 24 of Bucky's Game Nights - for @the-ss-horniest-book-club Lucky In Love - Day Twenty Four - Smile

No Warnings but my blogs are 18+ spaces always.

You couldn't stop smiling.

It was a hesitation on your part to refer to this new way of living as a "routine", because there was nothing boring or mundane about it. You loved being Bucky's girl. And every moment your hand was in his, the world felt right.

Even though he was sleeping better, he still found his way to your room most nights. He'd sleep curled around you, his chest pressed to your back, and you'd never felt safer. Once he started touching you, that comfort never stopped. He held your hand everywhere - at the dinner table, during game nights, walking you back up to the residence floors at the end of the work day. Going slow didn't bother you, and you would wait for Bucky to move past soft kisses and gentle touches as long as he needed.

Soon the quick kiss goodbye in the kitchen before you went to your office stopped drawing teases from the others. It became commonplace.

When he left with the others on missions, the quiet nights of wine and solitaire stung. You missed him - you ached for him.

You had fallen hard, and fast.

Bucky showed up at your office door one afternoon, unannounced and recently returned, and you practically jumped over your desk to throw yourself into his arms. He chuckled at your eagerness, burying his face in your neck and breathing in as he held you.

"I missed you too."

"This whole going away on missions thing sucks," your voice was muffled, mouth pressed to his skin, reacquainting yourself with the warm scent of him.

"What did you say that night I told you that you worked too hard?" You tipped your chin up to look in his eyes. "It's a good gig. Right? I get to live here with my friends and my girl. What's a little time away?"

"Of course you also get to be a hero and save the day."

"Fringe benefits," he replied, and you giggled. "C'mon doll, let's get some lunch."

You caught up with him over sandwiches in the commissary, hearing about the mission. The well-worn deck of cards made an appearance from your bag, and you shuffled a few times before dealing seven cards to you and Bucky.

"Do you have a 6?"

He smiled. "Go fish."

You drew a card. "I'm glad you're home. Maybe I'll actually sleep tonight."

Bucky reaches his hand toward you, and you link your fingers with his. "Me too, doll. Me too."

Part Two: The First Date

Summary: your crush on Bucky deepens and you have your first date.

Pairing: Beefy!Bucky X Reader

Warnings: Falling in love, fluffs, soft!Bucky 🥰

Word Count: 1,079

Author's Notes: Part two of the series Angel of Mine for @the-ss-horniest-book-club's Week of Love challenge 💜

It was inevitable that your crush on Bucky would only grow stronger as the weeks passed by, the two of you ended up spending a lot of time together, getting to know each other's secrets, fears and dreams.

Like Wanda, Bucky had also become very close to you. When you weren't hanging out at the compound, the two of you would text each other and occasionally video chat because he 'needed to see an angelic face to be able to sleep'. He was a charmer no doubt, and you were falling for him so hard.

Everything about Bucky you loved, his laugh, his smile, even his corny jokes that you would find really funny. Wanda couldn't keep the smile off her face whenever you were in her room talking and gushing over him, she was happy for the two of you and told you that even Bucky was looking happier since he met you.

As your crush deepens, so does your feelings and he's the last person you think about before you go to sleep and the first one when you wake up. He was always on your mind, and you caught yourself smiling a lot of the time when you thought about him during the day.

It was equally the same situation for Bucky. He's never really had someone in his life he's grown so fond of, he's never had that special someone before. He sees himself settling down with you with a couple of kids, a dog, a lovely neat house not too far from the beach, his own office where he could work from home. He sees this daily, and the more time you spend together, the more he's finding himself in love with you.

And that's how Steve found him; sitting on the barstool in the kitchen, spaced out with a dopey grin on his face. If it was possible, Steve would be sure hearts would be floating out from those orbs of his. Steve sits down opposite him, pulling the newspaper from under his arm and waits for Bucky to come back down to earth.

When he eventually does after goodness how long, he's startled by the change of expression on Bucky's face. The once dopey-lovey look was replaced with worry and doubt.

"What's wrong pal?" Steve asks, setting down his newspaper and leaning forward.

"I just- I want to take Y/N out on a date but I don't know how to ask." Bucky sighs, pulling the skin off his lip.

"You could just ask her." Steve shrugs, offering a lopsided smile.

Bucky scoffs, "and get rejected like you did? I can't just ask Y/N that!" Bucky argues.

"Ask me what?" You say from the doorway of the kitchen, a small shy smile on your face as you watch Bucky become more nervous and shift in his seat, his expression is like a deer caught in headlights; wide and shocked.

"Uh, uh," he trails off, not knowing how to ask, he was nervous it was too soon, and that you would say no. To ease his nerves, you walked in and stepped behind him, wrapping your arms around his neck and resting your chin on his shoulder.

"Tell me, please." Your breath fans against his neck.

"I just wanted to ask if um, if you would maybe want to go with me? On a date."

Your heart leaps with joy and your grip tightens around him, "absolutely!" Bucky pushes the air from his lungs in relief and smiles.

"I'll come pick you up at 6pm?"

You gently press a kiss to his cheek, "sounds perfect." You answer, walking out of the kitchen with a grin while Bucky traces the spot where you kissed him, his skin still tingling from the softness of your lips.

Just as the evening rolls around, you're just as excited as a little kid on Christmas day. You've already taken the time to shower, dressed up smart but warm to contrast the harsh wintery months and Wanda even applied your makeup.

"Are you sure I look okay?" You ask Wanda, standing in front of the floor length mirror.

"You look perfect, he's going to love you even more!" She tells you, adjusting your necklace before a knuckle knocks on the door. Wanda goes to open it and smiles, she tells you Bucky is waiting for you and you nod, giving yourself a final once over.

Walking nervously over to the door, you stop in your tracks and gasp. He's clad in skintight black jeans and boots similar to the ones he was wearing the day after you met him, a black plaid shirt and a leather jacket.

"I feel underdressed." You chuckle, looking down at your sweater and leggings outfit. Bucky waves you off and holds out his hand for you to take.

"Don't be silly doll, you would look amazing wearing nothing but a trash bag." You throw your head back and laugh, the angelic sounds pull on Bucky's heart strings.

"Thank you." You shyly respond, loving the feeling of his warm hand in yours, "so, where are we headed?"

He grins down at you as you walk side by side, "I know the perfect place."

The perfect place Bucky had in mind was Coney Island, and it was just as he said, perfect. Walking around the game stalls hand in hand, it felt momentarily like you were an actual couple. Bucky had won you a few stuffies, and even bought food even after you had offered to pay.

"It's my treat doll. You buy the next dinner." He says, shoving his wallet back into his pocket.

You smile widely at that, your heart filled with joy with the possibility of more dates.

"There's going to be another?" You ask, still smiling.

"I would hope so, I really like you doll." He blushes, and you giggle when his straw gets suctioned onto his lip and he pulls it off with a 'pop'.

"I really like you too. You make me feel really happy." You tell him, extending your hand across the wooden table.

"You make me really happy too. The happiest I've felt in a long, long time." You stare lovingly into each other's eyes when his suddenly averts over your shoulder, "ooh wanna go on the Ferris wheel?" He beams and it's impossible to say no, "I'll protect you when we reach the top." He promises, taking your hand and pulling you to the large wheel.

Snippets under the cut

From: To Heal a Broken Mind:

 I just hold him, stroking his hair, as he slowly comes back to himself. 

Finally, his eyes open. “Wha’ happened?” he slurs. 

“A seizure,” I say shortly. 

“Why ‘m I on the ground?” 

I don’t want to distress him right now, so I simply say, “it was worse than usual.”

From: Westward Son:

I’m a damned coward. I watched my friends and family arrive and make camp from the dense branches of a weeping willow. I watched them go through their evening routine and, one by one, settle in for the night. And then I stood vigil for the rest of the night. 

I waited until Baz was out of sight this morning before I returned to the wagon train. I couldn’t face both of their reactions at once.

From: Raising Dragons:

Baz is exhausted. He had his exams this last week, and tonight is the first time he’s been able to sleep in our bed in a week, after nodding off over his notes every other day. I’m not even back to work yet. I don’t go back for months, so it is most definitely my turn to take the nighttime wake ups. 

I’ve got to step up. Be a dad. But I don’t know how.

From: Saving Simon Snow (New chapter tonight!):

“Y–you…you want to…do that? With me?” Merlin, I’ve thrown Baz so off his game that he’s actually stuttering. 

“I…” I pause, wondering what the right thing to say here is. I think we probably should have sex, yes, because I don’t trust Baz’s family or any of the other old families not to come up with a way to legally annul this marriage. It’s definitely occurred to me that they could decide to throw me back in prison now, and Baz would survive it just fine, since the conditions of his vow were met when his father had me released the first time.

From: my COBB (it has a name, but the name is a spoiler!):

I’m back at the front gates, and beginning to draw a crowd. 

Some of the newcomers are clearly guards or something, because they’re wearing the same strangely mediaeval looking uniform as the angry guy. But a lot of them are kids. Some as young as ten or eleven, I think. 

Is this a school? Or an orphanage? 

And I got inspired by a convo on the COTTA discord, so here's the bare beginnings of an Age of Sail AU (yes, a fucking seventh WIP) (Soon to be 8 unless I finish one of the nearly done ones first):

He’s standing across from me, frowning fiercely as I take my time thinking through the order he’s just given me. 

“Show me the cargo hold, cabin boy!”

The command, uttered in the perfectly posh and self-assured accent of the SS Watford’s most obnoxious passenger, caught me by surprise. Tyrannus Basilton, or Baz, as I’ve heard his mother calling him, has ignored me for the most part, since we set sail from the port of Southampton. When he’s come across me in his explorations of the ship, he doesn’t say anything, he just stares at me like I’m something particularly foul that he’s just stepped in. 

I hate him. 

From my other mystery project, which I've decided to share the name of today (I don't think it's too spoilery), The Naked Next:

“Well, everything looks right as rain, here,” I say, smiling at her coolly. “In fact, if you were any more perfect, you’d be in biology textbooks.”

“I am in biology textbooks,” she says flatly. “My physiology is unique, after all.” I stare at her, wondering if she’s kidding. Her lips remain a flat line and her eyes are flinty. I fight the urge to roll my eyes. 

[radellama]

If you're still taking asks for the fanfic questions - 1+3+5+15 for Faith

HOLY SHIT HYLINK FAN HI

1: What inspired you to write the fic this way?

Man it's been so long since I wrote this that it's a little hard to remember. I know that what I wanted to do was create my take on The Legend™ of what led to Hylia knighting the original Link + what led to her choice to shed her divinity. It was going to lead right up to the events of Skyward Sword, acting as a full prequel.

Another thing worth mentioning for influence is the himekawa manga- there were some visuals in there that I really wanted to expand upon, but I did try to go through my own route- inspiration not imitation yknow?

The main draw, and unique point, I feel is the way that I'm building the narrative between current events and links memories. I wanted there to be two stories unfolding parallel- I wanted the main stuff with Hylia to be linear (in respect to the games) and links memories to be nonlinear (to give some agency for the viewer to figure stuff out themselves) - so weaving memories in at points where link is unconscious or zoning out was a fun challenge for me as a writer to add context and for readers to rearrange based on how I've linked them

3: What’s your favorite line of narration?

It amused him, that his dying thoughts were to a goddess he had long lost his faith to, yet at death's calling it seemed only appropriate.

5: What part was hardest to write?

Sighhhhh as I said it's been so long... I think where I stopped WAS the hardest part- because I hadn't finished forming my plans for the narrative but I had a clear idea of where I wanted to go. So it feels like I burnt my bridge before I even got to it. I really loved what I put down (I wouldn't have posted if I wasn't happy with it) but I think I need to replay ss, plan it better and then restart this fic tbh. My writing has improved since I wrote that as a teen and my author-ial quirks and flairs are much more defined, so I wouldn't need to change much other than tightening it up when I restart.

15: What did you learn from writing this fic?

How to plan (by doing it wrong)

I had some plans but I was too vague with myself and didn't link plot points in ways I could understand when time had passed. Because of that, when I inevitably got busy with trying to graduate high school and then starting work/adult life, I ran out of steam and found myself unable to access the headspace I needed to jump back in.

Now, I have better planning. My magland story is planned in a similar way to this hylink one, it's the natural evolution of what I wanted to plan when creating a fic like this- and because I've also learnt more about how nitpicky I am (and that in general I'm a busy person) that just by the sheer amount of time it takes me to get chapters out, I'll need better plans for bigger things. That's why I've gone insane with planning my st au, cause I know it'll take forever, and it has.

I really really want to continue this fic, I still think about it often- I just feel guilty that I can't regain the original headspace to continue and therefore had to drop it. Other stuff, mainly my chrono stuff, has a stronger inspiration for me right now, but my chrono stuff wouldn't be half as good if I didn't start with this fic, yknow? Just wait like..5 years lmao. I really do intend to revisit this soon. I just think I need to finish some other fics first and grind that xp lmao

Send me some asks about my fics~

You can read Faith here

[kanto-jhoto]

You do realize GF lost morale during the development of SS and they only had about 200 people on the team right?

I'm starting to believe these asks are not very sincere and is just someone wanting me to rant about gamefreak. Like I have serious doubts anyone who has a problem with my feelings toward Gamefreak would still be following me at this point, and it's not like i'me ever talking about SS on my own anymore.

Either way it's not new information and it doesn't change how I feel.

But I'll humor you. Low morality is pretty normal for a company that reveals their product and it gets a poor reception. You're supposed to use that early reception to actually improve the product. Not wallow in self pity and change nothing. But Nintendo in general seem to have a "fuck our fans" outlook where not only do they ignore bad reception, they double down on their decisions and really dig their heels in. Fuck them. They are not my friends they are not your friends, and i'm sure that their "low morale" is definitely soothed by the mounds of cash they sleep on at night from every thing they release breaking sales records.

As for the Small staff, that sounds like their problem. A problem that they could solve but choose not to. I wonder if that has anything to do with wanting less people to pay. Then again, maybe the size of the staff isn't the problem so much as it is the lack of passion or talent. Or, maybe they are perfectly capable but the capitalistic ever-producing machine that pokemon has become won't allow for them to simple take their time and polish their products, in which case it sounds like a problem on the part of the higher ups and they should take it up with them or walk out. I'm sure they could easily find work elsewhere given "I worked on pokemon" probably looks really good on a resume. In either case, not my problemo.

I don't know what your intentions anon weather you're baiting rants or this really is some kind of tumblr/twitter brain worm that causes one to think one has to treat strangers who make video games like friends and family. But either way I'm going to start blocking for ridiculous asks like this. It's been 3 years and i'm not going to suddenly think Sword and Shield was a good game that deserves my money. Maybe if they add the last bit of the Nat Dex as DLC I'll buy it just so my 3DS pokemon don't get stranded there, but it would simply be a means to house my pokemon in light of a nintend-induced disaster, and not because I think it could be fun to play.

Besides all this I've clearly moved on from my grudge with Gamefreak since I'm playing Pokemon Legends Arceus and i'm willing to buy pokemon games again..... if they look fun. Gen 9 is due to be announced really soon, if not this year than likely next year. So why can't you move on and let people not like the game?

What the Fork? Ch 1

Story Summary:

Eva Rozlyn "Roz" Roberts accidentally time travels when she fiddles with her time turner while watching The Dirt. She ends up in 1981 in the Mötley apartment. How will the Crüe react? Will she ever be able to get back to 2020? Will Roz be able to handle their way of life? Will she ever be able to control the time travel?

A/N:

I decided to start putting my story ‘What the Fork’ on Tumblr in addition to AO3 and WattPad (11 chapters). I wanted to organize my writing some more. Since I plan on this being a very long book and I want to make it a series, I want to take notes on my chapters so that I avoid continuity errors. Also, if I find any grammatical errors that I missed I will fix those. With the notes and everything, I thought that I would start putting this up here as well. As time goes on, I may do alternate takes on chapters and stuff like that. 

Oh, and the title is a bit of a funny story. When I first was trying to come up with a title, I asked for my boyfriend’s help. I told him the premise of the story and a summary of the first chapter. The first words out of his name were, “What the fuck???” And I was like, “Ok, there we go.” Of course, I wasn’t gonna swear in the title even though I do in the story. So, I decided to make a reference to the tv show ‘The Good Place’.

Chapter One

Eva Rozlyn Roberts, aka Roz, was sick of waiting for her friend to pick her up. She was supposed to be going to her first ever convention. She was dressed as a Gryffindor witch. She started to fiddle with parts of her costume. First, she was twirling her Newt Scamander replica wand for a while. *Why on Earth am I still waiting for her?* Roz wondered. Roz put her wand up her sleeve, and she tried calling her friend Katy for what felt like the 100th time that day.

After the voicemail picked up again, Roz decided to start watching The Dirt again. She had lost track of how many times she had watched the movie and listened to the songs since the movie came out. As she watched the movie, she took out a time turner necklace and started twirling it in all of the different directions. *I wish I had never agreed to go with Katy. She always forgets about me or bails.* She dropped the necklace and started to braid her hair.

 About an hour into the movie, Roz had already braided her hair so that it hung over her left shoulder. Her hair was black and it had deep red highlights all throughout. When she started twirling her time turner necklace again, a faint blue tendril of light started twisting around her fingers and slowly working its way up her arms. Before she even noticed it, the light was covering the entirety of her forearms. She immediately stopped playing with the time turner and started to panic. *Time turners are NOT even real! I cannot deal with this. I just turned 19 and I have to move soon. Fuck! What’s gonna happen to Hope?* The blue light had engulfed her and no matter how hard she tried; she couldn't get the time turner out of her hands. The last thought she had before she blacked out was *I hope she’s safe and that I’m at least gonna go somewhere fun.....*

 *******************

 The guys had just finished agreeing on a name. Mötley Crüe was finally a reality. They kept drinking together and didn't pay any attention to the strange blue light emanating from under the table. After a few hours, Tommy exclaimed, "Dudes, the only thing that could make this better would be for a chick to be here!"

 After a pull from his beer Vince laughed and asked, "Where exactly do you expect a chick to come from?"

 Mick growled sarcastically, "In a ball of light ya dumbass."

 Tommy's eyes lit up with teenage enthusiasm. "Ya really think so Mick?"

 Nikki just laughed and said, "He was joking dork."

 By then the light had waned and then, all of a sudden, it flashed back out from under the table. It engulfed the Crüe and Vince screamed. Once the light was gone Mick was shocked. "Seriously, I was joking about the light. What the fuck's going on under the table?"

 Tommy ducked his head under the table and immediately popped his head back up. "Dudes, I can't believe it.  I think I drank too much! There's a fuckin chick under the table!"

 Nikki cackled "T-bone quit fuckin around! Is there even anything other than trash under there?"

 Tommy glared and pouted "I'm not joking. Just look for yourself dude!"

 Mick grunted in pain as he got down on the floor and saw the strangest thing. There was girl who was maybe in her older teens. Her sudden appearance wasn't the only strange thing. She had unnatural black and red hair that was braided. She was also in what looked to be a school uniform. She had a red and black plaid skirt, knee high socks, odd combat like boots, a black blouse, a dark grey cardigan with a lion crest on it, and oddest of all a cloak. Mick decided that they needed to at least get her out from under the table. Maybe wake her if possible. "Nikki stop your cackling and help me move her to the couch."

 "Fine, fine" Nikki said as he rolled his eyes.

 Tommy and Vince moved the table and Mick carefully lifted her head and shoulders with a grimace while Nikki got her legs. Once they got her on the couch, Vince decided to bail to his girlfriend’s place, "Sorry, but I'm not sober enough for this shit. I'll be back later."

 Tommy leaned over the girl and asked, "Where do you guys think she came from?"

 Nikki shrugged, "Fuck if I know. Wake her up and see."

 Tommy started to poke her in the cheek. She mumbled "...5 mur min mum..." Tommy giggled and then decided to poke her sharply in the side. The girl's emerald eyes flew open as she shot into a sitting position.

 She screamed and flailed her arms which resulted in smacking Tommy in the face. "What the fork? Son of a bitch! What kind of asshole jabs someone they don't know in the side? Seriously, what the fuck?!"

 The guys looked at her with wide eyes and then at each other. "Well Mick you're the one who said a chick would come from a ball of light.  What do you think we should do with her?" Nikki asked.

 Mick chuckled "Your apartment, you guys figure it out.  I'm gonna just drink more."

 Sitting up fully and looking around the room, the girl was disoriented.  "She's right here and she even has a name! She also wants to know who you guys are and where she is," she snapped at them.

 Tommy sat next to her on the couch and responded, "Well I'm Tommy, that's Nikki and that's Mick. You are in our apartment."

 "Well theirs" Mick said pointing between Tommy and Nikki with his bottle of Jack.

 "Now your turn" Nikki said pointedly to her.

 Roz nervously tucked her legs under herself and hugged her knees. Looking down at the floor Roz said, "I'm Roz, that's all you're going to get from me right now. I want to know what city I'm in and what year it is. I've learned from books, TV, and movies that fresh out of a ball of light you figure out where and when you are."

 Tommy's brow knitted and he said, "Um its 1981 and you're in Los Angeles. Uh I guess that means I should ask you; where and when are you from Roz?"

 She looked with wide eyes between Mick and Nikki before settling back on Tommy. "Please don't freak out," she said quietly. As she looked down at her boots, she mumbled, "I'm from Madison, WI, and I was in the year 2020. I was born July 1, 2001 so I turned 19 a week ago in my time.”

 Nikki snorted, and Tommy elbowed him before he interrupted, “Seriously dude?? You’re from the future AND from Wisconsin?? How the fuck did you get here? Also, why under the table?”

 “I have no clue Tommy, I was just messing around with my necklace and then POOF………” Roz trailed off and then stared wide-eyed at Mick, Tommy, and then fixed her eyes on Nikki. She had finally realized who she was with. “Holy fucking shit balls!!!!!! M-Mick Mars? T-Tommy Lee? …. A-a-an-and N-ni-Nikki S-ss-Sixx?” She continued stare at Nikki who, after a bit, narrowed his eyes at her before turning to Mick and Tommy.

 “How the hell does she know who we are?” Nikki wondered.

 Mick shrugged and Tommy laughed and said, “Wait dude, she’s from the future, right? We’re probably famous. Hey Roz is that how you know us?”

 “Shit, I shouldn’t have let that bit slip. This better not fuck up the space time continuum. I refuse to tell you guys about your futures.” She said wildly staring at Tommy.

 “Ok… ok… What should we do with her until we figure out if she can even go home?” Tommy asked turning to Nikki.

 “Well we can claim she is related to one of us,” suggested Nikki. “Hey Mick want a sister or a cousin?”

 Mick shook his head and chuckled slightly. “If she’s gonna be my cousin I wanna know her whole name.  So, lady teen, what’s your name?”

 “Seriously Mick? Lady teen? Ugh fine, my name is Eva Rozlyn Roberts. I prefer Roz though.” She looked between the guys and then around the disgusting living room. “So… um…. Where am I going to live? If I recall this place only has the 2 rooms and Vince and Tommy already share one of them.” She thought for a moment, *Honestly, I hope they say I have to share with Vince and Tommy. Sharing with Nikki would be nerve wracking.*

 “Seriously dude, it’s creepy how much you know about us. You can share the room with me and Vince. I know Nikki ain’t gonna wanna share.” Tommy said looking like a hopeful puppy.

 “I guess that works. I’m gonna need something other than my costume to wear guys. I can’t always walk around LA dressed as a character from Harry Potter.” Roz said.

 “Wait who’s this Harry guy?” Nikki asked frowning.

 Roz giggled, “He’s the main character from a series of books that started in the late 90’s. He is a wizard and goes to a magical boarding school. It’s my favorite series of books ever. Right now, I’m wearing the Gryffindor version of the Hogwarts uniform. I also have a time turner necklace and a replica of Newt Scamander’s wand.”

 Mick rolled his eyes, “ So let me get this straight. You just decided to dress like a wizarding school girl and then play with magical objects?”

 Roz’s face clouded over, “Well I was supposed to be going to a convention with my friend Katy. Bitch never actually picked me up. I was fiddling around with the time turner necklace while watching a movie. Then I was in a blue light and passed out. Seriously, magic isn’t real. At least it wasn’t until the time turner decided to spaz out and actually work.”

 Nikki smirked and asked, “Are you sure you’re not a witch? You’re already a time traveler. Why not be a witch too?”

 “Bro do you really think she’s a witch? That would be so cool!!!” Tommy turned to Roz and asked, “Do you think that your wand will work too?”

 Roz giggled, “That would be amazing, although I doubt it does. But damn is it getting late or what? Any chance we can go back over this after some sleep?”

 “Well Tommy show her to Vince’s bed. I think it would be hilarious if Vin came back while she was sleeping in his bed.” Nikki says lighting up a cigarette.

 Tommy turned to Roz, “I should have some sweatpants and a shirt for you to wear.”

 “Tommy I hope you’ve got some workout shorts because your legs are way to long,” Roz said as she followed Tommy. Tommy handed her some shorts and a t-shirt and pointed out Vince’s bed. “Thanks Tommy.”

  After Tommy left the room Roz shut the door and changed. She folded her clothes and stuffed them in the pillowcase, and she still wore the time turner and kept the wand in its sheath on her forearm. She laid down and her last thought before sleep claimed her was of how strange this all is.

Day 163

24th November, 2022 11:50PM

🎵Dreamers - Jungkook

Sooo, there's a post going around that Jin's enlistment would be on 13th December, 2022 na. That's less than a month. Also, there's new Run BTS episode last Tuesday that I haven't watch yet. Actually, I havent finish watching the 2nd part of the flying yoga episode. I'll be watching it soon. Maybe on Tuesday? It's nice to save all the episodes to watch so that I can still see them all together again after Jin's enlistment.

Oh well, I've been busy since yesterday. Trying to help with encoding and sh*t. Since peak season's over soon and my long awaited vacation is nearing... I'm actually quite excited and sad though. Yes, I've been waiting to go back to the Philippines. But, my vacation's only a week. Imagine not being able to go on a vacay and rest for 2 full years and you've been working your *ss off... then getting stress with everything surrounding you. 1 week isn't enough. Man, I seriously miss home. The Philippines will always be my home and not here. I've never consider this city home anyway. For a week of vacation, I've also been thinking of where to go and how will I enjoy my whole week there. I wished they allowed me to have my vacation early though..

I can't wait to resign na din. Nakakainis na kasi eh. basta. haiii

[transparentheartz]

ugh i know the feeling, i've had so much free time lately and i'm only just starting work the last day or so. i have 2 papers due and three portfolios *cries* just trying to take it day by day!

what is it with managers and being condescending?? one of mine is too, but she also tries to be your friend at the same time and it's dead confusing... yeah there's something about part time work, it still feels full time ahaha

i went into the fic fully blind and it was really a great way to do it, the description and tags don't give much away!

that's the worst feeling when you don't trust the person driving, it's so nerve wracking!! ohhh by bridges i reckon you mean like big huge industrial ones, the only bridges i really drive over are brick ones over small stream or medium sized rivers, so i'm not sure i can relate there!

a summer birthday!! that must be so nice!!! my birthday's soon actually, the 8th of december :) i'm very very proud to have the same birthday month as Louis, feels like an accomplishment

ooo fav tropes, that's such a good qs, i'm a big fan of unrequited love (and yes i'm aware of the pain, that's why it's so good!!!), soulmates!! and probably exs to lovers... but i'll really read anything, the only thing i'm not the biggest fan of is probs regency fics.... like they don't float my boat that much??? A/B/O tho- good choice!!! i adore it, when i first started reading fics i avoided it but now i love it

do you read books outside of fics?

have a fab day, look after yourself!

- your ss <3

i have a bunch of quizzes to do and other works in two of my other classes, i’m gonna try to do them now ugh.

i don’t know if she tries to be condescending but it comes off that way sometimes to me. like she expects me to know everything when i’ve only been there for about six weeks or less.

it’s not that i didn’t trust the people i was with in the car (mom, dad, sisters) it’s just my anxiety made everything worse. and yes big industrial bridges, also there’s one i have to go over for work and it is 3 miles long. i’ll show you pictures of them when we reveal ourselves lol.

i like my birthday fine. i don’t really care for it though. i don’t think i’ve done anything for it since i was like 14/15, i just don’t see the excitement about it. my sister wants me to go out for my bday this year since i’m turning 21 but i don’t like to drink sooo i don’t want to lol. the smell of alcohol is so gross and it taste even worse so it’s a no for me. they always say i just need to find the one thing i like but i’ve tried a few things and they’re all nasty.

i like soulmates (read nameless nights by green_feelings, if you haven’t sooo good made me cry a bit) and loves exes to lovers (if it’s done right)

i love abo, i got my friend into it who never read it (and i made her into a larrie 😛) and she loves it now lol.

i love love love reading regular books! one of my favorite pass times. i read a 600 page book in 3 days and a 450 page book in eight hours about three weeks ago. i haven’t had time to read these last two weeks cause work and school but i bought a bunch before thanksgiving break so i have many to read i can’t wait.

do you like to read outside of fics? if so what’s your favorite genre or author to read?

hope you have a lovely day <3

You woke up in your bed, bundled up in blankets. A couple rays of light shone through your curtains. You closed your eyes again and shifted, turning your head so your nose was pressed against your pillow. As you inhaled, a familiar sent washed over you and filled you with confusion. The pillow smelled like Tyler.

You opened your eyes and bolted upright, looking around the room. This was not your bed, not your curtains, not your pillow. Panic flooded you as you tried to recall what happened the night before. You sensed movement and saw the outline of someone kneeling on the ground, at the edge of the bed.

Silence washed over you and the person, until they finally spoke.

“Hey,” it was Tyler. This was his room.

You continued staring at his outline until he stood up and opened one of his curtains slightly. Soft rays of sunshine illuminated the room.

“Hey, Ty, why am I here? Did um- something happen?” your voice croaked as you asked nervously.

Tyler had a dumbfounded expression on his face until he realized what you were implying. His eyes widened and he started to blush.

Oh! No, uh, nothing like that happened,” Tyler waited for you to respond. 

You nodded, waiting for him to continue.

”I was carrying you home but I don’t think anyone was home when I knocked. I decided not to wake you up and ask for your key because… well, you looked so peaceful sleeping and stuff. Um- I decided to bring you to my house instead of waiting for someone to come home to let you in. My parents were cool with it,” Tyler said while moving to sit on the edge of his bed.

”Thanks, Tyler. I really appreciate that,” you said to him with a small smile.

Tyler returned your smile and nodded. He understood how things were with you. You were an only child and lived with your dad; your mom passed away from a car accident when you were twelve. Ever since, you and your dad were somewhat distant most of the time. He never abused you or anything of the sort, but ever since the tragedy you both stayed out of each other’s way.

Your dad’s work was hectic and required him to do go on a lot of work related road trips and traveling. It wasn’t unusual of him to not tell you. He would usually leave a note to you somewhere around the house before he left.

Tyler stood up and stretched before talking to you again.

”So, I’m gonna go downstairs now to eat or something. You can come down when you’re ready I guess,” Tyler walked towards his bedroom door and stepped out.

You were about to get out of Tyler’s bed, when you saw his head pop back in the room.

”Okay, good. You’re getting up. Don’t want my pillow to smell like you, smelly,” Tyler giggled at himself then turned around to walk back downstairs. You saw him blushing slightly once again.

Lame joke, probably to hide the fact that he doesn’t want you there. The voice in you head echoed once more.

You shook it off while sliding off of the bed and fixing the covers. You grabbed your backpack that Tyler placed next to his bed and checked your phone quickly. The time read 10:53 am. Guilt washed over you, realizing how long you had been at the Josephs’ house. You placed your phone back in your backpack before heading downstairs.

As soon as you started down the first few steps, you could already smell the food set out for breakfast. As you stepped down the last stair, you were greeted by Mrs. Joseph.

“Oh, good morning (Y/N)! Tyler explained to me what happened yesterday. Feel free to stay as long you’d like. For now come and have something to eat, hun,” Tyler’s mom said to you.

You peered over her towards the table. Tyler was sitting at it and looked up at you. His red notebook was lying in his hands.

Ooh look, he’s writing nasty things about you

“Thanks Mrs. Joseph but I think I’ll pass. I’m not really hungry and I’ve got some um- I’m busy today,” you replied unsurely. Unfortunately, after saying that your stomach growled. You blushed, guilt washing over you again. Mrs. Joseph said nothing but smiled back in return.

You turned around and headed towards the Josephs’ front door. Tyler’s younger brother Zack passed you and stopped for a moment. You stopped and saw him look from Tyler and you with a slight smirk on his face. From the corner of your eye, you could see Tyler’s face flushed pink as Zack walked towards him.

You pulled open the front door, wanting to get as far away from Tyler as you could possibly get.

I bet he’s taking advantage of you. Talking about how you slept in the same room, right? Disgusting…

“Nothing happened and you know it,” you mumbled to yourself while walking faster.

You don’t know that. He could’ve done stuff and maybe you don’t know because you were drugged.

“Stop, Tyler isn’t like that. He’s my best friend. He’s too precious to do anything of the sort to anyone.”

Is he? Then explain why is the boy such a mystery to you most of the time. Why does it take him longer to open up to you?

Tears flooded your eyes. You hated the voice that made you question everything. You hated being uncertain all the time. You hated that you even listened to the voice. The voice was your own and you could never help but listen.

You stood on the sidewalk once again, watching the clouds roll by. You fanned your face in an attempt to stop the tears from spilling.

Your “friend” isn’t here to save you. But I bet you like that don’t you? Don’t want him to save you because he sees how gross you are, crying all the time. You’ve got no chance with him.

As if on cue, you heard quick footsteps coming closer. It hadn’t even been three seconds and you knew who was already.

“Hey, (Y/N) I wanted to walk you home-” Tyler began.

You bolted forward, running as fast as you could in the direction of your house. You didn’t want Tyler to see you crying again within 24 hours. You didn’t want him taking you to his house and make you the invader of his personal space. You didn’t want to hear his soft voice or see his lovely face for some twisted up reason even you didn’t understand.

But you did. You wanted to hear his voice, you wanted to be in his warm embrace, you wanted him to tell you everything was going to okay. Instead you kept running. Away from Tyler and all your issues.

The footsteps behind you died and you glanced over your shoulder. Tyler stopped, looking at you with a confused and concerned expression. He slowly turned around and walked back towards his home.

Point proven, you’re on your own.

You arrived at your house. You ran past it. Tyler couldn’t see where you were going, it was fine.

-

Tyler’s Point of View

She ran and I didn’t understand why. All I did was greet her and offer to walk her home before she sprinted without even lying an eye on me. Did she really hate me that much? I screw up everything honestly, what’s up with me.

I walked back home slowly, hands resting in the pockets of my mustard hoodie. Something made me feel like I should’ve gone after (Y/N). Maybe it was good I didn’t follow her, she might’ve wanted space after seeing my face around so much. I only wanted the best for her.

I felt heat creeping up my face at the thought of last night when I carried (Y/N) to my house. Did she hear what I said while she was falling asleep? I rubbed my arm, wondering if she felt the same about me because what I said was true. I think I did love her.

I arrived at home and immediately went straight to my room. I fished my phone out of my hoodie pocket, eager to text my friend Josh about the issue I was having with (Y/N)

Tyler: josh i need help with something.

Josh: what’s up?

Tyler: (Y/N) was walking home from my house cause remember she stayed the night. i was gonna walk her home and she ran away from me.

Josh: why didn’t you follow her you idiotic rat…

Tyler: …

Tyler: was i supposed to? i figured she wanted to be alone.

Tyler: i mean maybe i could’ve been interfering too much or stuff

Tyler: i think i’ve been around her too much lately

Tyler: josh?

I waited a couple minutes for Josh to reply back, but he didn’t. I started to get even more nervous until finally he read my messages and started to reply back.

Josh: TYLR CHEVK HER TWITTER NOEW

Anxiety bubbled inside me as I exited out of messages and tapped on Twitter. My blank blue reflection starred back at me while it was loading. I scrolled through my profile and went to (Y/N)’s profile. Her most recent tweet was posted eight minutes ago. I didn’t understand what Josh was inferring, it was confusing.

I looked at the tweet and tried to read what it said.

“*m *or*y ty**r,

*a*t do th** any***e.

m*ss*d up. **v*d **u”

I copied the tweet and went back to messages so I could ask Josh what it meant. I was welcomed by a text from him.

Josh: tyler fill in the blanks

I pasted the tweet in the message box and re-read it. That’s when it clicked and I felt as if the world had crashed around me.

“im sorry tyler,

cant do this anymore.

messed up, loved you”

Josh: ty?

I threw open my bedroom door and ran.

To be continued…

Ahahaha a cliffhanger, you’re welcome (wow a lot of blushing happened in this part). Anyways, don’t know when I’ll write part three to this. Like I said before, I’m probably going to write a Josh imagine before the conclusion of this (please don’t hurt me I’m sorry)!
