#I'm glad I didn't miss the orange side's reveal

[the-officially-kat]

If you haven’t seen my last art post, then probably most of you folks who follow me will be pleasantly surprised to find that I’m finally back in the Sanders Sides fandom~!!

I’d like to sincerely thank everyone who gave me the space I needed, I very much appreciate it and I hope you all enjoy my come back and the content to come

Underneath the cut are updates on my existing AUs, whether they’re still going to exist, or be cut, or be updated

If any of you have any questions, about my come back or the AUs or anything else, please don’t be afraid to send me an ask~

Before I get into it, let me make this clear: I won’t be back as much as before, if I do that I’m going to burn out all over again and none of us want that

Now, onto the AUs:

Let’s get the disappointments out of the way with the AUs that’ll be cut:

The 80s Fae Demon, Fairytale Superheros, and Witches AUs

I have no interest in continuing these ones, I’m not inspired whatsoever

Once Upon A Time

I would’ve continued this one because I’ve always loved the concept but that would involve me wrapping myself back up into the show itself and it burned me too bad

Scooby Doo

This one was a favourite, I know, but I’d rather focus on my version of Scooby Doo rather than an AU, especially since the majority of the info is the same

The Disney Fairytales: Prinxiety Snow White, Logicality Cinderella, Remile Sleeping Beauty

Another favourite, I’m sorry, however this one takes so much time and energy and I have neither to spare

The ones that’ll still exist but will be modified:

The Addams Family

Mostly everything will be the same but Remus is now Uncle Fester, Patton is still the nanny but he’s also the housekeeper like Lurch and has been part of the family for years

Logan is the new accountant (like Tully in the movie but actually good) and is the “normal outsider” coming into the family

Friends

Mostly still like Friends but mostly going by memory or creative liberty because I’ve since sort of gone off of Friends (entirely because of Ross ‘cause I hate him)

(Also, Virgil and Roman were Mondler originally, they snuck around before they confessed to being in a relationship)

(A new couple is Mondler now and no I won’t keep it a secret)

Remus replaces Remy in the AU and he and Roman are twins, Virgil is the one who ran away from a wedding because he was in a controlling relationship and reunites with his childhood friends Patton, Roman, and Remus and their new friends, Janus and Logan

Virgil The Teenage Witch, paired with Bewitched

This one is staying mostly the same as well but now I’ve paired it with the Bewitched AU so now it’s part two of the Teenage Witch AU where the teens are adults and Virgil and Roman are newlyweds

Another change is that Remus (formally one of Virgil’s cousins) is now Roman’s twin brother and mortal

The one that’ll remain as is:

Beetlejuice

The only AU that got away from the cutting board unscathed xD

The ones under debate:

Halloweentown, and The Nutcracker AUs

These might just be seasonal and I’ll want to modify them both at least a little

And finally, the possible new ones to come:

Criminal Minds

This one I thought of recently because I’ve been rewatching the show (for the third time) and because I don’t want to whitewash any of my faves, the sides would be a different branch of the BAU

Gilmore Girls

Listen, Gilmore Girls is my comfort show, so I’m surprised that I didn’t come up with this last time

Roman and Remus are the twin sons of Janus and Logan Gilmore, in high school Roman experiments with his sexuality, then finds out that he is both gay and got his female friend pregnant

The female friend doesn’t want to be a mom but is forced by her parents to have the baby, so when the baby boy (who will be a made up character I’m naming Phillip) is born and with Roman’s help, she runs away

(the friend is literally just gonna be a female Christopher except she and Roman don’t have any romantic feelings towards each other and she won’t be a foil in any of his relationships)

Tired and feeling trapped by the high class society they live in, Roman and Remus run away as well with the baby to the small town of Stars Hollow

Patton is Sookie, Virgil is Luke

Sleepy Hollow

This one is the newest one and the only info I have is that Virgil is Ichabod Crane and Roman is Katrina Van Tassel (Roman possibly gets to be the witch for once)

I have no idea if this is gonna take place during modern day or not

And finally, one based after my original concept of Fairytale Princesses becoming Witches

This is the AU from my come-back-Prinxiety-art I just posted and hopefully it’ll fill the void of the Disney fairytales AUs

And personally, I don’t know if I’ll include the witchcraft stuff or just keep it a Disney-like fairytale thing??? (unlike my thing where it’s based more on the original fairytales)

Anyway, Virgil is Snow White and Roman is Sleeping Beauty and both of them end up cursed with True Love’s First Kiss

Patton is Cinderella, Janus is The Little Mermaid, Remus is Rapunzel, and Logan is Beauty of Beauty And The Beast

Patton, after marrying the prince, overthrows the kingdom - Janus couldn’t get his prince and stabs him to get his tail back but it results in the murder of his father by the prince’s kingdom - Remus is Roman’s twin who was taken after he was born and is currently living in the woods - Logan was kidnapped by the Beast and kills him in self-defense but the fairy who cursed the Beast transferred part of the curse to Logan (he's not completely beast-like but he has some features)

Raphael:.........

Raphael simply: I could if you let me.

Raphael not missing a beat: And it can be a voting system for who can kick ass the best! Come on Raph! You can not tell me that you're not curious about the other variants of us and they'd do in a fight you're literally me!

*Casey and Cassandra wheezing in the background while Raph just stares at his smaller counterpart already tired but not denying it*

Raph: I won't let him or Don get too far. That's a promise. Also Raph and little me gonna kick shell tomorrow! So cheer for Universal Collision gang! You won't regret it.

Leonardo softly: As to how we're feeling, I think I can speak for me and Leon here that we're fairly confident that things will work out in the end. And we're honored to be apart of this event.

Leonardo with a small smile: We'll do our best tomorrow and we hope that you all at home will help us.

April (Rise) pulling her microphone back to her: And that concludes the interviews! Thank you all so much for joining us today on this adventure!

April (12) putting her recorder away: And please don't forget to cast your votes for your favorite aus! We're looking forward to seeing all your lovely faces tomorrow! Till next time-!!

*the camera transitions from the two girls smiling at it to a shot of the whole group smiling and giving the viewers of the O'Neil News Broadcasting Channel thumbs up*

*then the screen fades to black for the final time*

Jokes aside please vote for Universal Collision tomorrow and good luck to everyone!!! I'll be rooting for you!!!!

Terravenger - Season 5: Part Two - The Pugioh City Survival Arc - Episode 473 (Do NOT Copy)

    In the main hallway of Town Hall which was in the city Pugioh, the small team led by Victoria Sidney found many of the civilians sitting at the corners while a few more laid on beds at the center.

    Duo Storms spotted the medic Ren Ravenstone attending to another of the wounded. Once he walked closer, Duo discovered that this patient was not a citizen from Pugioh. The person sitting on the bed was the older student, Jonny Griffin.

    "No way!" shouted Duo. "You're here!"

    Jonny wore his tight black leggings with a silver pad attached to each knee. He had on a pair of open-toed silver boots which revealed his toes that were covered in black cloth which came from his leggings. And he didn't wear a shirt. He also had white bandages wrapped around his waist. And he had a small bandage that was taped on his left cheek.

    Duo hurried to him and wrapped his arms around the shocked Jonny.

    "I'm glad you're alright Buddy!" cried Duo. "You must've gotten outta that castle before it blew up!"

    An embarrassed Jonny lowered his head for a moment as Ren reported "Jon wasn't that injured. But he'll be sittin' on the shelves for a while."

    Both Paige and Iris stood behind him as the excited Duo continued to hug Jonny.

    "Everyone was right about you!" implied Duo. "You're a total badass! And a damn champ!"

    Then Jonny gave a short smile as he placed his right hand on the left wrist of the younger student.

    "Duo!" yelled Ren. "Be easy on him! This is the medical ward after all!"

Terravenger -- Season 5: Part Two -- Episode 473:  Hope and Devin; The Seer's Offer

    Inside a small room nearby, Victoria Sidney met with the young lord Devin who stood at the other side. He was accompanied by his wife Hope who remained by his right side.

    Devin wore his long-sleeved gray shirt, leathered black pants, and short black boots. He also had long white bandages wrapped around his chest. And his long dark hair was tied in a high tail.

    Hope had on a red-orange shirt that had short sleeves and lowered past her waist. Along with that, she wore a long white gown and a pair of short light-brown boots. And her long brunette hair was still worn straight.

    Victoria reported "I have interviewed everyone that was involved in these events. Once we return to Midas City, I will submit my notes to Commander Ravenstone and General Kastano. I also have copied my notes and sent them with Officer Queen who is heading with his team back to South Height."

    Devin gave a soft smile as he shook his head.

    Then he claimed "I have heard that an army from the Kiels Armed Forces had assisted in the war."

    "Yes," answered Victoria. "My commander had asked for help from Kiels. And Commander Kelly was more than willing to join in."

    And the lieutenant asked "What will you do now that your castle has been destroyed?"

    Devin responded "I have decided to leave Pugioh with my bride. We would like to live in a quiet life as a pair."

    Victoria shook her head and implied "You wish to start over."

    "Immediately," replied Devin. "I have no reason to remain here, even if I were to rebuild Erodios Castle. I resign as the lord of the Elken clan. I also wish to live the rest of my life as a civilian."

    Hope wrapped her hands around her husband's right wrist and told him "I will stand with you, whatever you wish to do."

    Devin faced her and asked "You approve my decision?"   

    Hope shook her head and replied "As long as you are by my side, I will be at peace."

    Then Devin gave a loving smile.

    Victoria informed them "You both make such as a fine couple. You will make a perfect team."

    And Hope replied "But first, I will return to see my mother in Midas City. My cousin promised that she would bring me back. And I know Sally misses me terribly."

    "And we shall go together," Devin told her. "I would enjoy to see Lady Sally once again."

    "Sally always loved you," claimed Hope. "She will be overjoyed once she hears that we had married."

    A familiar female voice told them "Sally would probably make it official by holding a large wedding."

    The couple along with Victoria soon found the student Paige walking from the door.

    "How did you know about us?" questioned Hope. "Were you told by Duo?"

    "I have known about you and Devin for a few years," answered Paige. "Neither I or Drake were stupid. We both waited for the both of you to finally get together."

    "My brother also knew of us?" asked Devin.

    Paige shook her head and added "Surely Silvan did what he could set you two together several times."

    "Silvan as well?" questioned Devin.

    Paige hugged her older cousin and told the couple "I am certain Aunt Sally will approve of your marriage. She wishes you to be happy, Hope."

    An hour later, Duo sat on the small roof of an abandoned building near Town Hall. The youth had watched the white clouds floated in the sky until he heard footsteps walking towrad him. So Duo turned around and found Hope standing by him.

    "Well," said a happy Duo. "Look whose here."

    "May I sit with you?" asked Hope.

    "Yeah!" cried Duo. "Of course. Come and sit!"

    Hope sat by Duo's left side and looked up at the clouds in the light sky.

    Hope informed him "Apparently both Paige and Silvan has known about my relationship with Devin for some time."

    "Really?" questioned Duo.

    A laughing Hope shook her head for a moment.

    Then she told Duo "I have come to thank you for all that you have done which includes saving my life."

    Duo gave a strong grin and responded "No sweat! You woulda found a way outta that place anyway. You're that clever, Princess."

    Hope gave a quick laugh and commented "I may have been captured for the third time if you were not there to protect me."

    "Don't sell yerself short," Duo told her. "You're a badass in your own right."

    The both of them gave a soft laugh.

    After that, Hope faced the youth once again.

    "You will make an excellent soldier for any of the nations," She informed the youth. "I know you will perform well for the future. You must continue at being successful."

    Duo gave out a quick chuckle and answered "Of course! I try my best at everythin' I do! My time is now!"

    Meanwhile, the crippled Alexis stood at the front of the large area where the remains of Erodios Castle were.

    Alexis did not wear any lipstick or eyeliner. But she wore a long light-brown dress with three black X-symbols placed at the center of the front. She also had on a pair of short dark-violet boots. And her long hair was worn down.

    She analyzed the entire area while the youth named Laura Griffin walked toward.

    Laura reported "Golden Bay soldiers searched every part of the Mafic Isle."

    "And he has not been found," ended Alexis.

    Then the golden-skinned woman responded "Goran may have returned to the hideaway where Mephistopheles resides. This is unfortunate."

    She turned to the student while she held her waist with her right hand.

    "How are you doing?" asked Laura.

    Alexis reported "While trapped under his gaze, he struck many vital points of my body. For now, I will not be able to defend myself. I am able to walk, but in a slow pace."

    "Can you still use your abilities?" asked the student.

    Alexis shook her head and answered "I can only use my lesser abilities. But I am slowly healing myself. It will take only a few months for me to return to my regular state."

    "That guy," implied Laura. "He was trying to dismantle you."

    The seer shook his head and responded "He had done a fine job. Goran did not want to kill me. He mainly wanted for me to suffer."

    Alexis slowly faced the remains of the castle once again.

    "But his body was severed as well," She replied. "Goran will not be strong as he was before. If you wished, you would had been able to finish him."

    "Really?" questioned Laura.

    Then Alexis reported "Sanie Al'alam. It was the name of the ability that he performed on me. This is a forbidden technique that affects not only the body, but the inner as well. That is why I will not be able to use my higher technique for some time."

    A worried Laura lowered her head and cried "That's crazy!"

    "But Goran was correct about another thing," replied Alexis. "He and I both agree that there is a great power in you that wishes to come forward."

    "What?" cried Laura. "Was that for real? I'm that strong?"

    Alexis claimed "With a lot of training, you will become a powerful soldier. You would also be a formidable psychic."

    A careful Laura shook her head and said "I guess that's possible if you say that."

    Finally, Alexis faced the student with a soft smile on her face.

    And the seer asked Laura "How would you like to become my apprentice?"

    A shaken Laura took a few steps back and repeated "Your apprentice?"

Homecoming

Summary: Ahsoka is back with her and Kaeden's adorable daughter after six months away.

Word count: 688

Warnings: Mentions of injuries, swearing, fluff, excessive fluff.

A/N: This is the end of Kaesoka week but I will keep posting fics and art for this AU because I love it and I will be back next year for more Kaesoka purity!

Edit: here is the art that this fic is based on

________________________________________________________________________________

Kaeden was practically bouncing woth excitement.

She's coming home! She's coming home! And she has a baby! She has our baby! I'm so excited to meet them!

She didn't think anything could ever make her happier.

"Easy there sis, you're gonna wear through the ground if you keep going like that." Miara teased her playfully.

She just ignored it, she was in too good of a mood to be bothered by her sister's childish teasing. I can't believe it's only been less than six months since she left, it's felt like years here without her.

Her heart practicality skipped a beat when she saw the ship come out of hyper-space.

Her heart literally skipped a beat when she saw Ahsoka.

She was amazing. She looked like she'd had a rough tiem sure, but it was amazing to have her back.

"Ahsoka!" Kaeden shouted her name and ran to meet her in the hanger.

They meet at the bottom of the stairs, tearfully embracing one another and fussing over each other.

"Oh my, Ahsoka what happened? You're bleeding from your side, how long has that gone untreated? What happenes to your head? You have a huge bruise!" Kaeden examined the bruise worriedly.

It was more than just a bruise, it was an infected cut.

"It hasn't gone septic, has it?" She asked.

She had a bacta patch on her and was already applying it to the wound.

"No, I kept it clean, I just didn't have much time to take care of it and I was waiting for something bigger to use my med kit on." Ahsoka said as she leaned into Kaeden's warm touch.

Fuck she had missed the warmth. The five months on that planet had been some of the coldest of her life.

"Damn, I missed you. I really, really fucking wish I'd let you come. I was such an idiot." Ahsoka leaned into Kaeden's hug.

"I really missed you too. I'm so glad you came back. I was so worried the whole time." Kaeden admitted.

Ahsoka smirked.

"I can see that, you've got eyebags bigger than Master Yoda's wrinkles, and he is very wrinkly." She said.

Before Kaeden could respond, a small squeak came from in between them. Ahsoka had a carrier strapped to her chest with a blanket covering it.

"Oh, right." Ahsoka pulled away from Kaeden and pulled the blanket down, revealing small dark teal blue horns.

The carrier wriggled around and the horns moved. A squeak came again.

Ahsoka reached in and lifted the occupant up.

"Kaeden, this is our daughter, Padmé."

A baby with beautiful dark orange skin, pale creamy markings on her face, blue and white lekku and stunning gray teal eyes stared up at Kaeden.

Her mouth was open wide and she stared in wonder, part of the blanket covered one of her lekku still. She giggled and smiled a smile that literally melted Kaeden's heart.

"She's so precious." Kaeden breathed.

"I know, she's so adorable." Ahsoka gushed.

She pulled their baby out of the carrier and held her out for Kaeden.

"Would you like to hold her?" She offered.

"Yes." Kaeden gently took her from Ahsoka and held her in her arms.

Padmé snuggled close and nuzzled her with a happy little squeak.

Oh Maker she's so frickin cute! Kaeden gushed internally.

"She's been looking forward to meeting you. We both missed you." Ahsoka leaned in to her partner's face.

Kaeden pressed her forehead against hers then kissed her. She missed the taste of Ahsoka's lips in the long six months they'd spent apart.

They came out for a breather as Morai chirped.

"You got a pet while you were gone?" Kaeden asked as the Convor settled in her hair.

"It's a bit more complicated than that but yeah, and I'll explain later." Ahsoka shrugged.

"Yeah, let's get you a proper meal and rest, then we can go to everyone." Kaeden suggested.

"That sounds wonderful Kaeden." Ahsoka agreed.

The four headed towards the kitchen with happy, contented smiles plastered on their faces.

They were all together again. A happy little seemingly impossible family.

One that would never break.

________________________________________________________________________________

So that wraps up Kaesoka Week 2021 and the first part of my Kaesoka Child AU, now it's time for mommy Ahsoka and Mommy Kaeden(+plus aunt Morai I guess. Why is Morai aunt? I don't know, ask the Force.)

Have a wonderful week everyone!

VJS out!

The Demon's Lair - Part 2

Rating: Overall E, this chapter T

Main Pairing: Seth Rollins/Becky Lynch (Warning they aren't monogamous for much of the story)

Side Pairings: Roman Reigns/Jon Moxley/Renee Young, Finn Balor/Violet Balor(OC), Baron Corbin/Randy Orton/Ember Moon, Sasha Banks/Bayley/Xavier Woods, The Miz/Maryse

Summary: Fire? Meet Gasoline.

Taglist - @askauradonprep @rxllynch @neversatisfiedgirl @superrezzy00 @axelwolf8109 @swifteforeverandalways @hitory--chan @riottbliss @viperslunatic

Seth gingerly pulled his black dress shirt over the welts on his back as Violet knelt in front of him petting his face and hair "Feel better, precious one?"

Seth nodded in reply still a little spaced out from the endorphins. Finn entered the room again face clean from the paint that had given his handsome features their demonic appearance.

"So her name is Rebecca?"' he finally spoke

" Yes, she's a little younger than you. I've known her since she was a little girl. We came to America together but she moved down south when she met her former girlfriend, it was right before I met you actually. You just missed each other." Finn explained, "She's going to run the main bar since Jordan decided to return to school full time."

"I think I saw her. Orange-red hair, dressed in yellow and black leather?" Seth says as Finn helped him to his feet

"That would be Rebecca. Miss Rebecca or Miss Becky to you." Violet told him. "That shirt is much too tight to button over your back."

Seth nodded at the unspoken command "I'll keep it open"

Becky Lynch had not expected to like working at Finn's club after everything Charlotte had put her though because of her hatred of Becky's kinks, but her The Lair was like nothing she'd ever seen during her years as part of the scene. The members of the Lair acted more like a family than any other club she'd ever been a part of. It was surprising how all of them acted around one another despite many of the members' celebrity status, It had been a crazy moment, her when first night working the bar when Mike Mizanin and his wife Maryse just walked up and casually spoke to her, to her surprise the couple were very down to earth and just as funny as they were on their sitcom Miz and Mrs, though she'd wanted to slap Finn for not telling her he had the rich and famous frequenting his club. So far in her month behind the bar, she'd met several MMA fighters, a defensive lineman for the Giants, and she was currently talking to Ember Moon, a New York Times bestselling author. It was all so surreal. The only member of the club Finn ever mentioned was Seth Rollins. Becky had heard a lot about the millionaire CEO in her month at the club. Apparently, he was something of a legend around the Lair. He'd helped Finn get the club off the ground and Finn had introduced the man to the lifestyle. She knew he was at the club tonight but all she'd seen was long dark hair and a fancy suit as he headed into Finn's private domain.

The door to Finn's dungeon finally opened and Finn stepped followed by Violet who was holding on the arm of the man from before now looking much less agitated, fancy black shirt left unbuttoned to reveal a toned chest dotted with scrapes and bruises, and an impressive 6 pack.

Ember whistled from a bar stool off to the side of her "Seeing Sethie's chest is always a treat"

"What CEO looks like that?" Becky wondered aloud " and he's all banged up"

"One who served in the Army for the better part of a decade, including 3 tours of Afghanistan" Ember explained "Seth sometimes takes mercenary missions if they require his specific skill set. He's been gone on one for the last month"

"Wait, wasn't this guy born with the proverbial silver spoon in his mouth?" Becky looked at the other woman surprised

"Mama Trish….that's Seth's mom, by the way. Well, she may have raised a spoiled brat but he's also got a hero complex a mile wide after what went down with his Dad. Nasty business that was, Seth went into the military right after he graduated High School. Roman and Moxie, Miss Renee's boys? They followed him in. The four of them went to the same ritzy private schools, known each other since they were all little kids. One of my boyfriends was a few years above them. The silver spoon thing is funny though since Seth's middle name is Sterling"

"Hey! Are you mocking my name?" The man in question says in a raspy voice as he walks up to them.

"Your Mama named you Sterling, she cast that die for you already," Ember says hugging Seth after casting a glance at her Dom and getting a nod in answer.

"Sup, Emmy," Seth said taking a seat at the bar.

"Seth, Miss Rebecca. Becky, the Lair's chief pain in the ass." Finn introduced the pair to each other.

Seth rolled his eyes at Finn before smiling at Becky "Pleased to finally meet you Miss Rebecca" he said politely "Seth Rollins" he introduced himself properly

Becky's brain actually stuttered for a second. This man was too damn gorgeous for her own well being, after a moment she internally shook her thoughts back into place and reminded herself she was NOT looking for a new Sub, especially not a buff, tanned millionaire one.

"Be a good Kitten." Violet leaned in and kissed Seth softly "If you can find someone to play with tonight has fun! If not you are welcome to come home with us as always, my darling"

"Yes, Miss Violet. I'm taking the day off tomorrow. Moxie and Ro changed the security codes on the facility and all my work-related computer systems for 24 hours. They locked me out"

"I told them to, Mo Chroi" Finn tells him. "You need a day for yourself. Go to the gym, tend to your plants but you are not allowed near your headquarters until Wednesday understand?"

Seth bowed gracefully "Yes, My Liege"

Finn and Violet swept off to their personal VIP Booth, while Seth settled into his normal spot at the bar to chat with Ember as Becky looked on, laughing at something the tiny African American woman was telling him.

"What do you think my Queen?" Finn asks his wife

"I think they might be exactly what the other needs. Becky already thinks he's cute, I can tell" Violet replied

Are you okay?" Ember asked Seth seriously after joking around for a few more minutes. "You hardly take on solo missions anymore."

"Favor to one of Mom's country club buddies. Her friend's daughter got snatched while the girl was on a trip with her Dad. Tracked her over there, got her back relatively unharmed" Seth explained succinctly. One of Ember's Doms worked for Seth and had known him for most of his life, Sso she knew more about what he actually did for a living then most of his friends at the club.

"I'm glad. Now imma ask again cause you just tried to derail me. Are YOU okay?" Ember said grabbing the bigger man's shoulders gently and making him look her in the eye.

Becky watched as Seth ducked his head and then rolled his eyes at his friend "I'm better. Majesties worked me over a bit."

"Emmy." A deep midwestern accented voice said as Randy Orton walked back up to the bar. "Time to go. Baron's flight gets here in 2 hours"

"Yes Sir" Ember said lightly, accepting her boyfriend's hand and getting down off the barstool.

"Won't be in till Wednesday Viper, Royal decree." Seth told the older man

"Good. Tired of having to call the Doc in because your stubborn ass don't know when to go the fuck home. See you then, Boss" Randy replied before he and Ember headed out of the Lair, leaving Becky and Seth staring at each other

"Would you like a drink?" Becky asks him "Finn tells me this fancy-ass coffee set up is your doing?"

"I don't really drink, spent too many years trying to find death at the bottom of a whiskey bottle." Seth tells her bluntly "So yeah the fancy-ass coffee set up is for me."

"I'm assuming Finn told you to behave with me? He warned me about you while you were gone" Becky said easily despite being internally taken aback by the lighting fast change in attitude

She watched as Seth visibly took a deep breath "I apologize, Miss Rebecca, Miss Becky?" He said questioningly continuing when the redhead nodded "I apologize for my behavior Miss Becky, I wasn't prepared for Ember to ask about my last job and it was a…..rough one."

"Your forgiven, míshásamh," She said with a small smile that got bigger when Seth tilted his head to the side like a curious puppy "Six years being Finn's friend and sometimes boyfriend has taught me quite a bit of Irish but I don't know that word"

"Maybe, if you're a good boy, I'll tell you," Becky said with a smirk "Now if you want something fancier then a regular coffee, you're gonna have to come back here and make it yourself"

Seth grinned and nimbly leaped over the bar landing to the left of her, letting out a low cackle when she didn't budge "I can do that"
