Not saying âI love you tooâ to the Fourth Wing characters before they leave
Violet Sorrengail
Violetâs mind would immediately race, wondering if something is wrong but trying to keep her cool
She would try to brush it off, telling herself itâs not a big deal, but the hurt would linger
Throughout the day, sheâd find herself distracted, replaying the moment in her head
She might overanalyze every interaction leading up to it, questioning if she said or did something wrong
Sheâd send a check-in later, casually asking if youâre okay, trying not to sound too worried.

Shit at Feelings ii
Bodhi Durran x Reader
Synopsis: Bonding with dragons? No issue. Killing venin? Unfortunate, but doable. Confronting your feelings towards your childhood best friend? No thanks.
Word count: 2.7k
Warnings: Spoilers!! Swearing, reader being stubborn and both reader and Bodhi being lil dummies?? Lmk if I missed anything.
A/n: the end of 2023 kicked my booty!! Beginning of 2024 no better, but here is part 2! I was stuck on if some of part 3 was going to go in this one, but decided not to. Meddling Imogen, and dragon dialogue is included this part!
àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ»
The next day, you stretched with Imogen, returning from a morning run. Most cadets were still sleeping their hangovers off. Imogen said the best way to get over one was running it off. She had picked your lock and dragged you out of your bed this morning to do so. But you knew she just wanted to gossip about the night before.
âSo you and Durran?â She had a smirk on her lips, tucking a piece of vibrant pink hair behind her ear.
Imogen only knew about whatever you felt for Bodhi, but with the way Rhiannon reacted last night you werenât sure if you were discreet about whatever you felt in the first place.
âNot what you think.â You sighed, your arms over your head as you sat on the ground, leaning to one side. âWe talked once everyone went to bed.â
She looked at you expectantly as she lifted a leg and stretched it behind her. âAnd?â
You clicked your tongue, leaning to the other side. âAnd he called me out on my bullshit.â
She laughed almost manically, earning her a pointed glare. âIâm sorry, sorry.â She then dropped her leg and lifted her other. âBut you really left him high and dry.â
You grumbled, âI know and I feel like shit about it.â You stood up dusting your leathers off.
âY/n, just tell him how you feel.â She shook her hands out.
âHow do you expect me to tell him everything when Iâve been avoiding him for years because Iâm too scared that something will happen once I spill my guts.â
âGods, I get it. Youâre scared, but you already almost died once without telling him. You think you shouldnât say a little prayer to Malek and Amari that they gave you a second chance?â Imogen said sternly. âAlso if it was anyone else you pulled that disappearing act with, you wouldnât have the same mercy. But itâs Bodhi weâre talking about, and he would let you lead him to hell and back as many times as you wanted because letâs face itâyouâre you. And for some fucked up reason he worships the ground you walk on like you were a god yourself.â
You didnât know if the queasiness you felt was the hangover or how right she was. He would do anything for you. Even how shitty you treated him for the last two years. Last night proved that.
âHe even risked smuggling your fucking sketchbook in so you could have something from homeââ
âWhat?â Your jaw dropped.
The pink haired girl inhaled sharply. âFuck I wasnât supposed to say that.â
âHe was the one that did that?â Your heart skipped a beat. Even when you had been so stubborn to avoid him, he thought of you? You had questioned the hell out of Garrick, Imogen, and Xaden for a week about it. You had never thought about the younger Riorson cousin.
âI hate being the middleman in your two demented whatever you got going on.â She sighed. âListen, forget I said that or take that as a sign to pull your head out of your ass. Iâll see you at breakfast.â She patted your shoulder, leaving you alone in the courtyard.
Well you felt like the shittiest person ever.
You knew you needed to talk to him, and you couldnât run and avoid him this time. As much as you wanted to hop on ClesaĂâs back and ride very far away. Fuck.
You had spent an hour already mulling over the information you had just received. Then replaying the argument last nightâwhich then led to remembering the very brief exchange with Bodhi in Aretia, ultimately leading you to the nightmare from Resson plaguing your thoughts. Like they had when you tossed and turned in bed last night, and the prior nights before that. By the time you entered the mess hall, your thoughts felt like nonsense.
He sat with Imogen at the end of the table filled with third years. They looked deep in a discussion, whispering only to one another. You gulped quietly, were they talking about you? You now knew Imogen felt like a middleman between the two of you, you wondered what he talked about to her. You tried not to overthink it as you reluctantly walked over.
As you reached the table, you could hear Bodhi saying something quite harshly. While the pink haired girl had the same expression she wore when she told you to pull your head out of your ass. It was obviously something he didnât want you to hear because as soon as he saw you coming up, he stopped mid sentence.
âCan we talk?â You asked him, not bothering to greet the pair. He tensed, and you didnât miss the look he tried to discreetly give your mutual best friend.
Imogen rolled her eyes, grabbing her things and getting up from the table. âI totally forgot Quinn needed help with something. Bye guys.â She gave a twinkle of her fingers before walking away with a smug look on her face.
You sat down, taking the seat Imogen had been in. âSo,â you awkwardly tapped your fingers on the wooden table.
âSo,â he repeated. âHow was your morning run with Immy?â
âBrutal.â You replied. Why was this so uncomfortable?
âListen, about last nightââ
âIt needed to be said.â You waved a hand nonchalantly. Your heart begged to differ, beating against your chest. âI was icing you out.â
âI didnât mean to come off so harshly.â He tucked his bottom lip between his teeth nervously.
Was it possible for you to want a man more? Even during such an embarrassing display of emotion on your behalf? Trying not to focus on the fact you wanted to reach over and be the one tugging his bottom lip between your teeth, you stared at the wood grain of the table.
âI was stubborn.â You reasoned.
âY/n Y/L/n, stubborn?â There was a tinge of amusement in his tone. âI guess thereâs a first time for everythingâI mean the taking accountability part at least.â You looked up, and saw him intently staring at you. Through the sarcasm, his brown eyes were warm like deep rich honey.
A ghost of a smile on your lips. âYou know me better than anyone else apart from Imogen. The way I regarded you wasnât fair.â You then contemplated your next words. âAnd I knowââ
âDurran!â Dain walked over, Rhiannon, and a few other second and third year cadets behind him.
Bodhi flinched, shifting his attention to the group. âYes, Wingleader Aetos?â He had icy malice as he took in Dain. You yourself could feel your anger rise when the third year came in your vicinity. He was the reason you had been in Resson, and why Liam and Soilel were dead.
Dain noted the unwelcome greeting from the both of you and faltered for a moment, heat flushing his cheeks. âWe have a meeting.â He cleared his throat, straightening back up.
The man sat across from you glared over to the brunette man. âIâll be right there.â He then turned back to you with a softer look in his eyes and an apologetic smile where the scowl was a moment prior. âCan we finish this conversation later?â
You could feel the eyes of Rihannon linger on the two of you, and you knew the others now were acutely aware of the interaction as well.
âYeah, yeah. No worries.â You brushed it off, though disappointment filled you. You were finally getting somewhere, but you knew he couldnât ignore the newly appointed wingleader.
You had been looking down in your lap, missing the subtle look back Bodhi gave you as he left with the group.
àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ»
Later had come and gone with no sign of Bodhi still. Leaving a lurching feeling in your heart, but you tried not to wallow in self pity too much. You had thought maybe you deserved to be stood up. But at least you didnât run this time, and it was his move now.
âThe male of your affection causes too much of a distraction for you anyway.â CleasaĂ huffed in your mind. Rolling your eyes you focused on the sketchbook in front of you. âMakes you a lovesick puppy as you would say.â
âAm not,â you bristled.
It was late in the afternoon and you were spending time with CleasaĂ in the flight field, avoiding everyone. You had brought a blanket to lay on as you laid back against her front leg. She protectively curled around you, sunbathing, leaving you with a sufficient amount of shade to look at your sketchbook.
âIâm assuming youâve never had a dragon that captured your affection?â You spoke out loud.
She nestled her head on the ground, huffing again. âIâd rather not say,â you could sense the disdain in her bored tone. A sly smile crept on your face, leaning up and staring right at the green dragon, who had feigned resting her eyes.
âYou have, havenât you?â Egging for more info from the clubtail.
âWe havenât been seeing eye to eye for a year.â Was all she grumbled. âSpeaking of not seeing eye to eye. Your human approaches.â
âHeâs not my human.â You hissed quietly, looking up to see Bodhi was indeed walking towards you, his dragon Cuir following a reasonable distance away.
âIâve been looking for you.â He offered you a lazy smile, careful to avoid eye contact with CleasaĂ. âCuir said he thought he noticed CleasaĂ leave the Vale.â
Your dragon sighed in annoyance. âBusybody,â she glowered in your head, causing you to grin. Did she mean Cuir or Bodhi? âI meant the annoying green one, but your human is quite a busybody as well. He couldnât have waited until you came back from the flight field?â This caused a genuine laugh to escape your lips.
Bodhi only gave you a nervous look, âI hope sheâs not talking about me.â
âYou can tell him yes.â She grunted.
âNo, she's just grumpy.â You lightly patted her scaly leg causing her to grunt again.
âHowâs her claw?â He asked, scanning the injured back leg of hers.
âNone of his business or that oneâs over there.â She chuffed, baring her teeth toward Cuir. You didnât know why she was persistent on one of her own den members not knowing of her condition.
Rolling your eyes, ignoring her. âShe's doing better. She should be clear when lessons start again.â
Bodhi had a tight lipped smile on his own face, his shoulders shaking in laughter. Cuir whipping his head annoyed several yards behind him.
âIâm sorry, he can be quite the worrier especially overââ
An audible growl came from your dragon, earning a suspicious look from you.
âWhat is going on with you?â You scolded CleasaĂ mentally.
âWorry about your own human afflictions.â Was all she said down the bond.
The man glanced at the book in your lap, and a grin spread across his cheeks. âYouâre drawing in your sketchbook again?â He took a seat across from you on the ground, careful to not be too close to your dragon. Cuir had done the same in the distance.
You blushed slightly, âthereâs a new sentimental value to it.â You chewed on your bottom lip, looking up at him. Bodhi had a gleam you couldnât place in his eye, and his cheeks were blushed slightly too. You couldnât help but smile broadly at his coyness. âI know youâre the one that brought the book back.â
âWho? Me? Why would I do that?â He propped his knees up, holding his forearms on them as he gazed up at the late afternoon sky.
He had always looked the handsomest during golden hour, your favorite features of his were enhanced. The tones of the setting sun had embraced his face, his eyes warm with gold flecks scattered throughout, and his onyx curls radiating chocolate brown undertones.
You tucked your hair behind your ear, âI donât know I was wondering the same.â The broad smile painted on your face tilted downward.
âI thought maybe it wouldâve been a dead giveaway, and you would have taken it as an olive branch.â He suggested, turning back to you.
You were thumbing at the page that it had been on, the textured parchment. Boy, were you an idiot.
âI thought you hated me or would have been tired of me by now.â You admitted.
âWhy would I feel either of those things Y/n?â
âBecause you offer me all this patience and kindness that I donât deserve.â You said exasperated. âAnd in return I offer stubbornness and do everything in my power to avoid you.â
He chuckled dryly, âhavenât you realized? I donât care.â
âWell I feel like you should.â This would be an argument that you wouldnât let go. Screw Amari or Malek giving you a second chance, you didnât feel worthy of that chance. Nor did you want to see anything happen to Bodhi if you were to accept him back into your life.
âWell, unfortunately I canât control how I feel,â He looked back at the sketchbook in your lap. A smirk creeping onto his lips. âAnd apparently neither can you.â
âWhat do you mean?â Your eyebrow raised at him, and he only made a subtle gesture to the book. You looked down, your cheeks turning bright red.
You had been aimlessly sketching, not thinking too much about what you were putting on paper. It started as just a pair of eyes, but then turned to a full blown portrait of a man. Not just any man though, it had a striking resemblance to Bodhi.
Who were you trying to fool? It was him. From the crinkle by his eye when heâs amused to the unruly curls that always fell in his face.
âThatâs all I need to know,â the smirk had turned to a shit eating grin.
You kept opening your mouth trying to respond, but you were left speechless.
âYou canât pull your shit anymore, Y/l/n.â He lifted himself off the ground, wiping the dirt off his leathers standing.
âI-I donât know what youâre talking about.â You shake your head furiously, finding your voice finally.
You wanted to wipe the cocky look off his face desperately. âWhether you admit it or not, you canât hide from me anymore.â He responded so cooly, it made you grit your teeth irritatedly. âDonât worry, Y/n/n your secretâs safe with me.â He teasingly held his hand over his heart. âItâs rather endearing.â
âBodhi,â you groaned. You could feel the heat evade your face and ears. âItâs not that seriousââ
âSerious enough to me.â He didnât let your annoyance faze him. âIâll see you around.â
You rolled your eyes, watching him leave down to the main campus. Cuir takes off into the sky and back to the Vale, leaving you and CleasaĂ alone again. Releasing a sigh of air that you hadnât known you were holding when he got out of the ear shot.
âLovesick puppy.â Your dragon had hummed amused. Deep chirping sounds audibly coming from her. Was she laughing at you?
âMe?â You were quick to turn and glower, your lip tugging upward in aggitatation. âHow about we talk about you for a second? What the hell was that?â
âItâs just sometimes the male greens can be soâŠâ she paused. âSuffocating?â She was choosing her words wisely. As though it seemed like she was hiding something, but not surprising you though. CleasaĂ was rather secretive, it was what she was known for in the green den. A trickster of sorts, with cunning deception.
âAnd whatâs that supposed to mean?â You pressed further.
She chuffed, âIâd rather not divulge that at the moment, but in due time...â She drew, sounding almost feline.
You knew better to argue, she was just as hard headed as you, and if you pushed her too hard, sheâd push right back. Then that got you both nowhere. So you stood, gathering your things to retreat to your dorm and get ready for dinner and tonightâs shenanigans.
âSooner than later, please.â You gave her an expectant look.
She got up, shaking out her scales and stretched a bit. âYes yes sooner than later, donât fret Lovesick puppy.â
âStop calling me that!â You yelled over your shoulder as you retreated back to campus. You could hear the chuff she released in amusement in the distance as you descended the ancient stone stairs.
àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ» àŒșâàŒ»

Hi! A little while ago you got a request for Orym and a reader who is really awkward but is really trying to be friends. Could you please do the same prompt but with Ashton, Fearne, Laudna and Imogen? Thank you!!
Fandom: Critical Role
Character(s): Ashton, Fearne, Imogen, Laudna
Note(s): Here you go!!
Ashton
Making friends isn't his thing. He's hotheaded and blunt and just doesn't care about many things. Caring is hard and most things he cares about end up breaking so he doesn't like adding people to the list.
The stares you give him and fidgeting you do makes him fidget and start overthinking. He'll bluntly make a comment about you "taking a picture, it'll last longer". He just assumed you were staring cause he's weird looking (something that he doesn't take offense to because it's true).
But you aren't completely scared off by him and so he decides to talk because that's something normal people do. Honestly finds it hilarious that you'd want to be friends with him, but whatever. Ashton ends up mad at himself that he adds you to his list later.
Fearne
Fearne sees you staring and looking like you want to say something, so she's already in your space. Like Ashton, she assumes you're staring for a reason. Unlike Ashton, she thinks you're staring because she's hot.
Fearne talks to you, being playful and asking what your deal is. And then she learns that you're trying to figure out how to be her friend.
She's very touched by your words and finds it adorable. But she's Fearne and she can't help saying, "Why would I want to be your friend?" Before laughing it off and saying "Just kidding." She actually means the just kidding this time.
Imogen
She's used to the stares and uncomfortable vibes other people have around her. She's honestly tempted to open her mind to hear what you're thinking, but also doesn't know if she should in case it is more negativity. Eventually gives in and listens to your surface thoughts.
Imogen feels bad as she hears you contemplate how to talk to her and seem cool. She thought you were thinking bad about her, but you're just wanting to be friends.
Thing is, Imogen can be awkward with approaching people too. But she still does, giving a small "Hi." and then trying to figure out what to do. Should she compliment your shirt? Talk about the weather? You're both just awkward together, she's tempted to bring her extrovert friend into the mix.
Laudna
Laudna is pretty much the same way. She's so awkward, but that's not going to stop her from making friends!
Will introduce her dead rat to you. Will show you the fun/scary dolls she has. Ooh maybe you'll like to hear a joke! It's a classic from Whitestone. A real tree-t (treat), if you will.
And she wants to hear all about your hobbies too. You don't even get to be quiet or reserved as she is in your space trying to become friends. She just hopes you don't notice her quick glances to Imogen to make sure she's getting a thumbs up that she's doing a good job.

would you be willing to do a hc for dating Imogen?
Dating Imogen headcanon
Imogen x reader
A/n: I love her sheâs my strong no nonsense girl đ
Warnings: none
Imogen has such a strong personality youâre a little scared of her
Whenever she talks to you you freeze up and stumble over your words
Your friends, especially Violet, pick on you a little bc your crush on Imogen is so obvious
As you were leaving training one night Imogen grabbed your arm keeping you from leaving
Fight or flight kicked in and you flipped her
As pink hair came into view it was too late. You were already in motion to kneel on her chest
You let out a gasp as you land on her, âGods, Imogen! Iâm so sorry! I had no idea-â you were cut off by her laughter. âYouâre funny y/n/n.â You gave her a confused look
Quickly Imogen flipped you, your back softly hitting the mat as she gently laid you down. Imogenâs lips inches from yours. âHow about me and you go into town this weekend, yeah?â
From then on you two were attached at the hip
You two do everything together
You even convinced her to let you help with a few missions here and there for the rebellion
Imogen helped you with your homework. Itâs not obvious but she is very book smart
When she helps you study she rewards you with kisses
Imogen isnât super touchy but she wonât complain if you hold her hand or any PDA
She does like to keep her hand on the small of your back when youâre out and around others
You two donât always get the chance to do big romantic gestures
Itâs the small things you do for one another that make you emotional
Like mentioning your favorite snack one time and finding it in your room after a long day with a sweet note from Imogen
You can tell when Imogen is stressed
Usually she doesnât like to talk about whatâs bothering her so you comfort her
You find Imogen pacing in her room with just the desk lamp on. She bites her nails when sheâs nervous thinking. You frown, walking over to her wrapping your arms around her middle to stop her. âIâm here for you.â You whisper into her chest
All Imogen does is hug you back tighter, resting her head on top of yours

Love languageÂ
Pairing:Imogen x Female!Reader
Prompt:K Kiss
It was the third time you had walked this path today,trying to remember all the talking points the guide would go over so you could translate them. As you were walking you noticed a girl who was looking around frantically,like she was trying to find someone. You had seen her with a group of people not too long ago so she probably got separated from them. Before you could think of how you should approach her,there was a gust of wind that blew her beret off. Lucky you were standing in the perfect spot to catch it. She ran over to you and you could see that she was talking,probably thanking you although you couldnât hear. Now that she was closer,you got a better look at her,she was beautiful. So beautiful that you didnât realize she had been rambling for the past two minutes. You put your hand up signaling her to pause,you pointed to your ear and shook your head. You could tell there was an âohâ on the way,that was everyone's first instinct when you told them. Pulling up your phone you opened your notes before handing your phone to her. It only took her a few seconds before she gave it back to you.
âI lost my friends,can you please help me find them?â Putting your phone away you gave her a nod and a smile,before reaching up to fix her hair and put her beret back on. You gestured for her to hold on to it,making her laugh. You had seen her group a couple of times now so you sort of knew what they looked like. As you were walking you noticed that she was walking very close to you,you were sure she'd be holding your hand if you hadn't just met. When you walked by one of the local bookstores that one of your friends worked part time at,you glanced at the window to see if she was there and she was.She smiled before saying something and walking out to meet you.Â
âY/N,whatâs up?â She signed before quickly adding âWhoâs your new friend?â You rolled your eyes knowing what she was implying.Â
âIâm just helping her find her friends that she got separated from. Have you seen a group of French people? Like five boys and four girls,have you seen them?â
âI did just see a group walk by here a like 10 minutes agoâ
âWhat direction did they go in?â She turned to the girl before answering you,you turned to see that she was talking and turned back to your friend who thankfully translated what she said. She had asked your friend for the time.
âItâs 4:50â You saw her face drop and a look of panic took over,she started rambling so fast that your friend struggled to keep up. But you understood that she needed to get to a meeting point before 5:00.Â
âDo you know where it is or any of the buildings around it?â She told your friend the name of a nearby cafe,and you knew if you hurried youâd get there just in time. You gestured for her to follow you before you waved to your friend. You led her to where your scooter was parked,quickly unlocking it before handing her your extra helmet before you put yours on. She got on and put her hands on your shoulders,you tapped her hand and pointed to your waist instead,she moved her hands to your waist as you put in the key and started driving. You felt her hold you tighter as you picked up speed. A few moments later you noticed her grip got less tight as she was distracted looking around,you wished you couldâve seen her face. You reached the cafe and she got off,handing you back the helmet. You saw a group approach you,looking closer you recognized that they were her friends. They started talking,they mustâve said something about you because she turned back to you and quickly back to them. You took off your helmet,fixing your hair as you stood up,giving them a wave hello. She mustâve told them about you not being able to hear since they all waved back. There was a few minutes and you spent them âtalkingâ to the girl which consisted of you passing your phone back and forth,writing everything. You learned that her name was Imogen and you told her yours. You asked her for a photo of the two of you before she left. Before you posted it to your Instagram you handed your phone to her so she could tag her account. Her friends called her over since it was time for them to leave.
***
"Imogen!" I bolted up,looking at Sahar. âI called your name like five times,what are you looking at thatâs more important?â I quickly put my phone down,so she couldnât see that I was scrolling through Y/N Instagram.Â
âSorry the whole break up thing has me a bit annoyedâ I lied,not wanting to tell her that I might have feelings for a girl,let alone a girl I had just met not even 12 hours ago.Â
âIf youâre thinking of taking him back,donât. You did the right thing,you deserve betterâ
âYouâre right,I shouldnât think about himâ I stared at the ceiling for hours questioning everything I thought I knew.I didnât know what was happening or what I was feeling but one thing I knew was that I wanted to see her again.Â
I barely slept last night and spent the entirety of breakfast yawning,which made everyone ask if I was okay. I still couldnât get her out of my mind,spending every moment I could on the profile. As we were on our way to the Eiffel tower I took another look,to find that she had made a post to her story. It was her with a tour group,the caption was the locations theyâd been going to. The other locations had been crossed out leaving just the Eiffel tower. Just the thought that I might see her again made me both excited and nauseous.
***
The tour was almost over,your hands hurt from how much you signed,the new script was way longer than last years. You couldnât wait to go grab a coffee and relax,you just had to get through your last stop. There were only three talking points and you were quickly done with the tour,letting everyone wander around and enjoy the view. Just as you were about to leave you saw a black beret flying towards you,you caught it before it could hit your face. You fully turned and once again you were face to face with Imogen. She laughed as she waved to you,walking up. You fixed her hair and set her beret on top of her head once again. You held up two of your fingers,she laughed as she spoke. Despite not hearing her words you could tell she said âtwiceâ just by reading her lips. She seemed to realize her mistake and quickly typed on her phone,before showing you âwanna hang out?â You nodded âand could you please teach me some sign language?â You hadnât expected her to ask that,but it made you smile.
A few hours later you sat across from her at a cafe,teaching her the basics and making sure you wrote down what they meant. One phrase you made sure to teach her was âI don't understandâ you knew she'd need it a lot at the start.Â
***
The next day you woke up to a text from ImogenÂ
âhey,weâre throwing a birthday party for one of our friends. I was wondering if youâd like to come?â You smiled at the words.
âIâd love to,where and when?â She quickly texted you back with the hotel's address and the time. You rummaged through your closet for an outfit,nothing too fancy but you didnât wanna show up in just a hoodie and jeans. The party was later that night so you had enough time to get ready,you were putting on some makeup when your sister came in. you turned to look at her and she looked shockedÂ
âWhat? Where are you going?â
âA partyâ
âA partyâ She repeated âYou donât go to parties willingly,whatâs going on?â She could see right through you.
âThereâs this girlâ
âI knew it,â She exclaimed,interrupting you. She was speaking out loud as she signed,probably not realizing. âSo whatâs she like?â You didnât describe Imogen the only thing you found yourself signing wasÂ
âShe asked me to teach herâ
âShe did?â She moved closer to you âThatâs great,go get herâ She was about to leave when you waved to get her attention.Â
âWhat did you want anyway?â She thought for a moment.
âI donât remember,byeâ
***
You texted Imogen when you arrived and she immediately came down to the lobby to get you. She smiled as she looked you over.Â
âYouâre beautifulâ You hadnât thought her that,so she mustâve learned it on her own and the thought of it made you blush.Â
âYou tooâ as you walked you asked âdid you learn that for me?âÂ
âYes,I learned a few more stuffâ You corrected her,showing her to proper sign for âthingsâ she signed back âYes,i learned a few more thingsâ
âWhoâs birthday is it?â She signed back,separate letters this time.
âT-A-R-Aâ You made it to the door before you could ask anymore questions.
*
The party went well,until they wanted to play truth or dare. You decided to call it a night,and said your goodbyes. Imogen walked you out,you were in the hallway when she moved to stand in front of you.Â
âHow about we play a round,just the two of us?âÂ
âSure,you first. Truth or dare?â
âTruthâ You thought for a moment.
âWhy did you wanna learn?â
âBecause I wanna talk to youâ
âBut youâre only here for three daysâ
âI wanna keep talking to you,if youâd like tooâ
âI wouldâ
âYour turn,truth or dare?â You could tell she was a bit unsure about the signs,she was trying to remember the signs.
âDareâ Her eyes lit up for a second,she stepped closer.
âI dare you to kiss meâ You pushed her back against the nearest wall,leaning in closer. She wanted a kiss and you were going to give her one she wouldnât forget.

So Uhh just finished my last final and am now in fact crying. So Iâm going to do head cannons of my Favorite Critical Role characterâs comforting a stressed SO.
đ Imogen đ
She can feel your anxiety literally, although isnât sure what to about it, Laudna is the comforting one.
Sheâs very big into words of affirmation to try and calm you down and lotâs of pet names largely Darlinâ Hun or Precious.
She copies what Laudna dose to soothe her after her nightmares, fetching you water, asking if your okay and just listening.
đ Beauđ
Definitely quick to notice your stress but is a little slower to do something about it, she trust you to handle it but if youâre over stressed will step in.
Literally just scoops you up and removes you from whatever is stressing you out. Thereâs no fighting her.
Will probably take you out for drinks and gets you drunk enough to talk about whatâs bothering you, whatever it is sheâll handle it.
đżFearneđż
Probably takes a bit longer to notice your stress but once she dose will not leave you alone until she makes you smile.
Tries little pranks to cheer you up, will steal whatever item she thinks is causing you stress. Uses Mister as a paper work begone machine.
âYou should pet my ears theyâre soft, itâll helpâ
đ„Calebđ„
Caleb is also stressed yâall two are kind of a mess(affectionate).
He sends Frumpkin to try and comfort you as heâs really awkward about doing it himself.
Will cautiously suggest he reads to you as a way to help soothe both of your nerves.
đčVexđč
You will be going shopping with her immediately, no ifs ands or buts about it. She feels comfort in having things and wants you to have that too.
Lotâs of playful teasing but if that doesnât work she very seriously puts her hands on your shoulders and says take a break darling.
Will send in Trinket good luck remaining stressed when getting literally bear hugged and hearing Vex laugh in delight at the sight.
đJesterđ
What/Whomever is is stressing you out better be prepared for the absolute havoc Jester is going to wreak on them.
You will be brought various sweets until you feel better, the sweets get increasingly strange in nature she once brought something she claims is rock Candy but definitely looked like drugs.
Sheâs very much the kind to distract You should play a game with her or go visit her mom in Nicodranis. Youâre sitting at a desk trying to get work done Nope sheâs sitting in your lap.

Black Dahlia - 17. Jealousy
Summary: Xaden and Garrick get their squads together to train, leading to some jealousy with someone unexpected.
A/N: I'm so sorry for the long delay on Dahlia. Kinktober took priority, but we are back in full force. I wrote so many parts in the last 24 hours for this, and I can't wait for you guys to see what I'm building up to in a few parts! Garrick Tavis x OC (Dahlia Aetos)
Black Dahlia Masterlist | Masterlist
âI donât know why you wonât give him a chance.â Liz says in an airy tone.
I turn to see her staring at Garrick and Xaden who have gone shirtless for their sparring warm up. And she wasnât the only one. There were more cadets here than normal for our night training session. Since bonding dragons it seemed a lot of the first years were wanting to make sure they kept their seat. And every single girl in the room was starting at them.
I canât help but let my eyes wander as I look over at them. Garrick was by far the most muscular guy in the quadrant. As if every muscle had been carved from stone. I shake my head in attempt to get those thoughts out of my head before turning back to watch Imogen spar with another first year.
âI wonât give him a chance, because he wonât give me a chance.â I reply bitterly.
âI mean, can you blame the guy? Youâve seen how your brother and father treat the other marked ones.â Liz murmurs, still lost in a trance as she watches them spar.
âI am not my brother and my father.â I nearly snap at her, my typical anger rising to the surface at being compared to them.
âTrust me, we know. Even if you were an angsty bitch when we first met you.â Austin teases from my other side, dodging my attempt to shove her away.
âThanks? Not sure if that was a compliment or an insult.â I say as I narrow my eyes at her slightly.
âLetâs go with both.â Bodhi says as he walks over and joins us, Garrick and Xaden close behind him.
I keep my eyes focused on Bodhi as I jokingly glare at him, but out of the corner of my eye I feel Garrick staring at me. Ever since our interaction in the hallway Iâd felt his eyes on me more. Almost as if challenging me to take the bait heâd laid out the other day. Which I was not. Yes I could admit he was attractive, especially while he stood there shirtless with his freaking muscles on full display as they glisten with a slight sheen of sweat. But even if I did get along with him, I was not becoming another notch in his bed post.
âAlright everyone, pair up with someone and start going through some weapon practice.â Xaden advises as he looks over us.
Tonight both his and Garrickâs squads were training together. Apparently a good way to broaden our training by going up against people we didnât really know. Naturally Imogen tagged along even though she wasnât in either squad. She made a habit of turning up whenever we were here. She kept saying it was coincidence, but I was starting to think it really wasnât. Our squads start pairing off, Liz and Austin pairing up as if on auto pilot. They worked well together as they were a similar skill level, often complaining Bodhi and I were too difficult to go up against.
I go to follow Bodhi, but a large figure steps into my path and Iâm forced to look up at Garrick. âHow about you and I pair up little Aetos?â His voice laced with a mocking tone as he looks down at me.
I roll my eyes and scoff at him. âNo thanks, wouldnât want to catch something from being too close to you.â I snap back, causing Bodhi and Imogen to snicker at my comment, Xadenâs eyes going wide as he looks between us.
âYouâre just scared Iâll finally show you up.â He mocks, arms crossing over his chest as he cocks his head to the side.
An idea forms in my head. A stupid idea. And I silently hope he doesnât follow through with it as the words leave my mouth. âIf youâre so confident about that maybe you should challenge me once challenges start back up. Unless youâre scared Iâll prove you wrong again?â
Another round of snickers pick up around us, Garrickâs brow furrowing as he glares down at me. Clearly me proving him wrong all those weeks ago was still a sore spot for him, and I couldnât help but smirk at him before pushing past him and dragging Bodhi with me.
âYou know heâs going to end up doing that and heâs going to kick your ass in front of everyone?â Bodhi whispers as I lead us over to a spot on the far side of the room.
âHeâs not going to kick my ass in front of everyone.â I throw back at him as I grab a sword from the weapons rack.
I turn around to see Bodhi looking at me like Iâm an idiot. âClearly you donât know him very well, or youâre delusional on the size difference between you two.â
âAnd he also doesnât know me very well.â I point out, Bodhi eyeing the sword Iâm waving around cautiously as if worried Iâm going to hurt him or myself with it.
âMaybe if you-â
âNope, not happening.â I say before settling into a fighting stance.
Bodhi clearly takes it as a sign this conversation wasnât going any further, his shoulders sagging in defeat before walking over to grab his own sword. As soon as he settles into a fighting stance I launch myself at him, Bodhi flailing to keep up with me. Each of my strikes fuelled with the hint of anger that had risen to the surface from my interaction with Garrick and words with Bodhi.
Bodhi didnât deserve how hard I was going at him, but I needed to let out my frustrations somehow. Everyone was so adamant I give the lumbering oaf a chance. But why should I when he wouldnât give me one? Since the day Iâd walked across the parapet, heâd made up his mind about me. Had lumped me in with my brother and father without even a second thought.
Poor Bodhi is quick to succumb to my attacks, my leg kicking his out from beneath him as he falls to the floor with a loud thud as his sword clangs loudly on the ground as I point the tip of mine at his neck.
Bodhi just shakes his head and laughs. âRemind me to never piss you off again.â
âYouâll be fine.â I tease as I move my sword from his neck as I hold out my free hand to him.
He grasps his around mine before pushing off the ground to help me pull him up. Clearly still wobbly from his fall he stumbles into me as he rights himself, causing him and I to laugh at his clumsiness.
âYou sure? I nearly just made a fool of myself by nearly sending us plummeting to the floor.â
âWouldnât be the first time youâve made a fool of yourself.â
Bodhi laughs as he playfully shoves me away before releasing my hand and heading over to get a drink of water from his pack. As he moves my eyes fall on Garrick who hasnât moved an inch, except to turn and look over at us. But for once his glare and eyes arenât trained on me. Theyâre focused on Bodhi. And it almost looks like he wants to murder him.

Hi there! Could you please do headcanons on what itâd be like to be in a polyamorous relationship with Laudna/Imogen and Ashton/Fearne? Thank you!
Fandom: Critical Role
Character(s): Laudna, Imogen, Ashton, Fearne
Note(s): I did some platonic poly headcanons for Laudna/Imogen so I'll do my best to add some more romantic ones here!
Ashton/Fearne
You have emotionally stupid Ashton and "does whatever the fuck I want" Fearne. It's a very chaotic relationship. Fearne has no hesitations with telling you what she wants, when she wants. She'll drag you both to the bedroom as soon as you and Ashton agree. Ashton, however, somehow still doesn't understand how he can have two partners that genuinely care about him.
So many pillows get used when all of you try to cuddle or spend time together. Fearne enjoys having soft, comfy things around, but it's also because of Ashton's pain. He really does want to give you two the love you deserve, but his chronic pain is a bitch. Which is why there's always soft pillows around to hopefully help ease him a bit.
You're not allowed to have anything. As soon as you do, Fearne "borrows" it and then Ashton "borrows" it from her. And then it just becomes a thing of sharing with your two partners. Of course, they will stop messing around or teasing if you actually say something.
Laudna/Imogen
With everything going on, they can't give you as much love as they wish they could. There's longing looks and fleeting touches between you three, but there's just too much happening for cuddling or spending the nights together.
But you know they love you (and each other) with how quickly everyone jumps to each other's defense. Laudna is happy to be scary when protecting you two or chasing off someone else coming in to flirt. Imogen enjoys doing her slightly off-putting telepathic thing to throw people off, too.
There is a lot of patience and secrets in this relationship, unfortunately. As much as you three love each other, Laudna doesn't always talk about her discussions with Delilah and Imogen keeps her conflicting feelings regarding her birth and mother to herself. They just don't want to put that much weight on you or each other and it's just secrets upon secrets.

Liam Mairi x fem reader
Overview- Liam and Y/N have been spending a lot of time together over the past few months and feelings between the pair have developed deeply however there is a betrayal under the surface that is uncovered leaving only heart break behind.
Note- okay so this is and idea that came to me and is meant to be like the turning point of an enemies to lovers story where the protagonist has been betrayed and finds out so mainly the feelings of hurt and betrayal. So yeah have fun with that one if you can! Also listening to I love you Iâm sorry by Gracie Abrams might set the toneâŠ
Liam had been missing from dinner which was strange as he always made time to sit next to you even if it was to talk about trivial things. Even though you had only begun properly getting to know each other five months ago there had not been one day where you had not seen to him, spoken to him, laughed with him and for the last few months exchanged and sneaked kisses in the hallway away from prying eyes. So for Liam to be missing from your side tonight was beyond weird. In fact he always was by your side you suddenly thought. Strange how one person can go from not knowing another to being completely and utterly consumed by them. It was a feeling you had tried not to become dependant on but the strange feeling in your stomach told you that you had failed miserably at that task.
After finishing dinner and having seen everyone else, including your friends and brother leave, you knew something wasnât right. Something was out of place. It wasnât just Liam missing from dinner you had observed. His friends had also been absent including Xeden Riorson, which yes was nothing new, but tonight was different- they were all gone. Finally picking yourself up from the bench you had been sitting at hopefully and wistfully waiting for the blond haired, bright eyed boy to stroll by in the cocky, childish way he usually did, you quietly exit to dining room.
Wrapped up in your thoughts you suddenly realise that your body has taken you to the outskirts of the building to a small garden that Liam often took you to- a place he called his âsecret little spot, away from nosey peopleâ. However it must not be that secret you think as you catch a glimpse of five hooded figures, some in incredibly tall and one shorter signalling a mix of men and women within the group. Using the stealth you have fostered from years of sneaking around your family home as a child, you creep around the corner within earshot of the group hiding in the dark shadows the crevice provided, curiosity taking over your mind. The voices are muffled of course, but there is one distinctive boyish voice that stands out. A voice that often soothed you and whispered sweet nothings in your ear now sounded serious, concerned and ultimately regretful.
âSheâs different to what you think Xadenâ so Xaden is one of the hooded figures, you think, makes sense.
âLiam, I couldnât care less if she is an angel sent from the heavens herself- sheâs dangerous. To us. To everything weâve been working for.â Xaden replies. Who is she?
âSo what? We just kill her? Sheâs innocent Xadenâ Liam responds angrily. That tone is a tone you have only heard a couple of times. Never directed at you of course unless you do something stupid that puts you in harms way. Istead that tone is used towards people that disrespect you, sexualise you, try to hurt you.
Xaden tuts and lets out a short breath âdonât tell me Mairi that youâve actually fallen for this girl.â Suddenly the identity of this girl is becoming clearer unless Liam has been cheating on you, which would be extremely out of character, this mystery girl the cloaked figures have gathered to discuss is indeed you.
Liam pauses for a long moment before answering and you swear you can hear your heart beat in your chest so loudly it will give your identity away. âNo. Of course notâ he eventually replies.
Heart ache consumes your body. Although you have never told Liam you love him and he has never uttered those three words to you, you have felt it. You have felt how much you love him and in return how much he loves you. And that had been enough for you. But now hearing him deny the affection you was sure he felt, your heart felt like it had been crushed under your own dragonâs foot.
âHer signet is just as dangerous as Aetosâ. She is a valuable weapon for them, one they will never let go. Liam you know who her parents are. Her dad cut half of us down during the rebellion and her mother was the greatest healer of all time and it seems she is set to follow in her foot steps. Are you sure her signet is healing?â Xaden asks
âYes. I have seen it. It is impressive but not at its full potential yet. She told me that she has been advised that is will manifest even deeper and only grow stronger. With the right training she will be able to heal a body that is on the brink of deathâ Liam says in a quieter voice then he used before- he almost sounds defeated you think as you refuse the sudden urge to scoop him into your arms and comfort him. Comfort the man who has just betrayed you and your secret. The man who has just signed your death sentence.
âShe canât ever expand her powers. It is too dangerous to have her running around healing everyone we try and take down. We will never win when the number of us decreases and theirs stay the sameâ another voice speaks and you immediately recognise it as Imogenâs. She has always hated you. You have always been able to sense it, see it in her eyes. Not that you blame her. Your dad killed a significant number of their people before he was killed himself, and your mother did nothing to help. She could have healed them all but yet she didnât and kept on healing the men and women on the other âright sideâ of the rebellion as your father used to quote to you.
âLiam you need to gather more information from her before we take her down. We need to know more about Aetos. They are still training together?â Garrick asks. So this is where they all were you think, instead of eating pie they were plotting your downfall. Liam was plotting your downfall. Betrayal curses down your spine. The heart break that had initially struck you has now been transformed into anger. Pure loathing anger. You gave your heart to that boy, you have everything up for that boy, and he used you. For information, for knowledge, for the secret you were swore to protect but gave away so easily to a pretty smile and twinkling eyes. Pathetic. You have been pathetic. But no longer you think.
âYes they train every-â he begins but you have had enough. Even if it gets you killed you cannot bear to sit here in the shadows, like a coward, another moment longer. Standing up Xaden immediately notices the movement.
âShit. Shut upâ he commands
âNo needâ you reply âIâve heard everythingâ you emerge from the shadows that just before kept you hidden in your heart break. The anger you feel in this moment is a feeling you think you will never forget. To have loved someone and then been stabbed in the back by the same hands that held you at night. To have trusted in someone so profoundly only for your trust to have been built on lies and deceit. To have sacrificed your families beliefs, honour and status only to have them proven right and you painted as the naive love struck girl. It was sickening. It was transforming. Love turned into a bitter gall of hatred.
Storming up to the group, dagger in your hand, the faces of the cloaked figures run towards you but you can only focus on Liamâs surprised, hurt eyes. His mouth is agape and he somehow despite his betrayal looks guilt stricken. âY/N please, I can explainâ he pleads with his hands but you are not giving in.
âKeep your nerves quick one!â Rhella, your dragon encourages, as you focus on your movements ducking out of the way as Bodhi tries to restrain you followed by Imogen who you elbow swiftly in the windpipe chocking her causing her to fall to the floor gasping for breath. But that doesnât matter as you have swiftly reached Liam and without hesitation you raise your dagger to his throat. Your breath is heavy. Your eyes are wild with anger. Your breath is ragged.
âPlease let me explain Y/Nâ Liam says again
âNO!â You yell back and press the dagger harder drawing the slightest bit of blood. Perhaps you might have drawn more if it hadnât been for Xadenâs shadows flinging the dagger from your fingers and Garrick restraining you whilst the others watch in shock.
Squirming in Garrickâs arms you try and wriggle free but it is no use, he has both your arms locked, and you suddenly begin debating if these will be your last moments on earth.
âJesus Christ you came out of no whereâ Bodhi mutters helping a still winded Imogen up who has already set a deadly glare on you. Not that you care. She is the least of your concerns at the moment.
âFuckâ Xaden mutters as he places a hand on his head and begins to pace as if thinking very deeply.
âLet me go you fuckerâ you yell at Garrick.
âShut your mouthâ Xaden storms over to you grabbing your chin in his strong hand causing your mouth to shut immediately as he commanded.
âXadenâ Liam interrupts in a harsh tone almost as if he is warning him.
âLiam I think itâs best you leaveâ Xaden says in a low deadly voice making you shudder.
âNoâ Liam bluntly says causing Xaden to turn around still holding your chin strongly. âI mean- no Iâm not leaving you to kill her in the middle of the bloody school. Do you know what kind of message that will send? They will know it was one of us or at least blame us for ease. We are done if you kill her now and you know it.â He says convincingly but the way Liam just coldly bargained for your survival without any compassion for you or your life causes a tear to roll down your face. He want a you alive to save their own treacherous necks. Not because he loves you and canât bear to be in the world without you. Fucker.
âWell what do I do with her now then Liam ? She knows too muchâ Xaden says
Liam sighs and groans âjust- just all of you go and leave her with me I can talk to her, make sure she keeps this a secret.â
Imogen lets out a shrill strangled laugh âand HOW are you going to do that Mairi? She wonât trust a word you fucking say nowâ
You let out a grunt in agreement to that statement causing all eyes to fall back on you. Usually Liamâs eyes are the only ones you meet however the darkness in Xadenâs are hard to look away from in this moment. He wants you dead, that much is clear, and you arenât sure he is going to let you leave this garden without claiming your life.
âIâm going to talk to her Imogen. We clearly canât kill her nowâ we is the word that stabs you âso we will have to keep her alive and on our sideâ Liam angrily explains finally walking forward to where you stand putting his body only a few inches from yours where Xaden still stands manhandling you. âLet her goâ he tells Xaden. Xaden looks reluctant but lets go. The relief to have his strong hands off you is unmatched, and you are sure your jaw will be deeply bruised from the strength of his grip.
âLeave everyoneâ Xaden commands and although the rest seem reluctant to go they do. Clearly Xaden is their leader. Now only Liam, Xaden and Garrick, who is still restraining you, remains.
âListen and listen closelyâ Xaden whispers âyou will not utter a word of this to anyone. You will not let anyone know we are aware of your signet and you will not tell anyone what you saw or heard tonightâ he explains blandly as if it was that simple.
âAnd if I do not complyâ you practically spit at him.
âI will personally kill your brother. Jude is it? He seems sweet, naive much like you, but kind and caring. I will crush him with my shadows and rip his soul out of himâ Xaden says- no hint of any emotion on his face making his words more haunting. âDo you understand me?â
Water swells in your eyes as you quickly spare a glance at Liam who looks mortified. How dare he? This is your life, your brotherâs life that is at risk not his.
âYesâ you whisper.
âYes what?â Xaden demands.
âYes Riorson I understand and I will not utter a word to this to anyoneâ you reply.
âBrilliant-â
âOn one conditionâ you add.
Xaden laughs but it is not humoured. It is bitter and hateful. âYou arenât exactly in the position to be making demands Y/LNâ he grabs your chin again causing Liam to finally interfere somehow pushing his hand away.
âEnough Xadenâ he says in a tone so demanding and sure it frightens you. âWhat is it you ask Y/Nâ Liam asks you.
You look into his eyes hoping to see some glimmer of what you used to see- love, admiration, respect. But there is only desperation. Desperation for you to not anger Xaden further.
âYou must promise that you will not harm my brother nor me. You will let us both live despite whatever vendetta you unjustifiably have against me as an individual. I am not my family. I am my own person with the right to prove all of you fuckers wrong. Let me live and leave my brother beâ you ask Xaden avoiding Liamâs penetrating gaze at all costs. To look into his eyes now would be to cry and look weak in front of the shadow lord in front of you- being weak will get you killed. So you keep your gaze strong, focused and unfaltering.
âDealâ Xaden agrees âbut if you break this deal your brother will die and you will watch. Once you have processed your grief I will kill you alsoâ he says plainly before signalling to Garrick to let you go which he does immediately.
âYou have ten minutes then you both need to leave before we all get caughtâ Xaden says to Liam as him and Garrick turn around walking back inside not sparing you another glance, like you have now become worthless to them.
It is now just you and Liam. You and the backstabber. The silence is deafening and makes you want to cry. Liam sighs and attempts to reach for you but you step back wrapping your arms around your body as if to shelter yourself from anymore hurt he could inflict.
âY/Nâ he says softly.
âPlease Liam spare me your liesâ you say, your voice raw and full of emotion.
âYou donât understand. I had to. Xaden needed the information and at first you didnât mean anything to me but as time went on I started to like you and then I started to catch feelin-â
âStopâ you cut him off meeting his desperate gaze âdonât you dare. Donât you fucking dare stand there and tell me that you felt anything for me whilst betraying me and lining me up like a pig to slaughterâ
âI donât want you dead!â He shouts âI never did! I- I- I love you for gods sake! I love you and donât want you deadâ he yells loudly.
You still. He has never said that to you. âIt is amazing the lengths you will go to keep my mouth shutâ you reply coldly âif you ever loved me you would have never have done this to me. Love shouldnât include betrayal and you have betrayed me in the worst way possible.â
âYou think I wanted this? Wanted to lie to you? To seduce you? To make you trust me? To fall hopelessly in love with you? I didnât! But it happened and itâs real! I would have NEVER of let them kill you. You must know thisâ Liam sobs, he actually fucking sobs.
âI know nothing.â You say numbly âInfact that is a lie I do know this, I know that I now regret every moment spent with you, every word I spoke to you, every kiss I gave you, every night I let you have my body. I know that I hate you Liam and will never forgive you for this. I know that if you so much as look in my direction again I will not hesitate to kill you, consequences be damned. I know that I loved you and now I detest your existenceâ you deliver the lines with such confidence that you almost believe them yourself. Tears that you once shed have already dried on your face and your body feels heavy ready to collapse at any moment but you know you must stay strong.
âYou donât mean thatâ lean chocks out. Trying to come closer to you but you just step further away
âGet out of there quick one before you take back every word you have just saidâ Rhella warns and you heed.
âBut I doâ a hateful smile falls on your face âyou fuck yourself Mairiâ you say as you turn around ignoring Liam calling your name over and over. The last sound you hear his him sobbing and a thud that sounds a lot like a body collapsing to the floor as you speed walk to your room.
Making sure no one is lurking in the halls ready to rip you to shreds means it takes longer to get to your room but eventually you get there collapsing on the floor immediately as you shut the door. Your room still smells of him making it harder to breathe. Funny, you think, not only 24 hours ago the man you loved led in the bed in front of you and now that bed is empty alongside your heart. Only one thought manages to keep you going as you prepare for bed.
âI will kill Liam Mairi if it is the last thing I fucking doâ

study season
fourth wing characters (Aaric, Bodhi, Brennan, Dain, Garrick, Imogen, Liam, Mira, Rhiannon, Ridoc, Sawyer, Sloane, Violet, and Xaden) x reader the ways our faves help you study for exams. words: ~900 đ·: no book spoilers, no triggers. gender neutral. and I included the girls this time!! some of these can be read as platonic and others mention kisses / cuddles, implying youâre a couple. idk, I just work here. Iâm really liking this format lately, and itâs (fairly) quick and easy so you can expect more of these in the future while I procrastinate all the girlfriendverse chapters and smut I have to write lol
First, the more studious of the bunch:
Brennan is all-in, no hesitation, pulling up a chair next to you and learning this with you for moral support, but also for fun (can you believe this guy?) though you suppose itâs easier to enjoy this if it doesnât count for a grade. Either way, heâs a very nice study partner, and he encourages you to take breaks every hour / chapter / etc. Brings snacks, too.
Violet somehow already knows all of the material, and explains it better than the textbook or the professor. Walks things back if you donât get it and gets into the why and how, which so many teachers skip over, even though it helps explain the what (pet peeve of mine showing here lol).Â
Aaricâs study skills are unmatched -- years of the best private tutors money can buy really paid off. Teaches you new strategies that youâve never heard of in your life, and when you ask, he admits a bit shyly that he came up with it himself, but it works, and you get it done in half the time you would have before. (work smarter, not harder, baby)
Rhiannon gives you the pep talk of your life (we all need a Rhiannon in our lives) and convinces you that youâve got this. Packs you a little snack for the day of your exam with a little note reminding you that you know this, just breathe and think.Â
Xaden sees you struggling and forces you to take a break. During said break, heâs reading the book himself and figuring out what exactly has you so stressed and exhausted. Breaks down the tasks into smaller, more manageable steps and guides you through it -- âfind three reasons why XYZ happened.â done with that? âNow make them into paragraphs.â etc etc, and an hour later, you have a passable essay.Â
Dain is taking this more seriously than you are, and his discipline is like no other; youâre not stopping until the work is done, or until midnight, whichever comes first (because sleep is important for the brain, or whatever. Definitely not just because he misses you and wants to cuddle).Â
Garrick may have no idea what youâre talking about, but he suffers through it with you, offering to let you explain things to him, because teaching is a good way to test if you understand something. Though you get what you pay for -- heâs a total smartass about it, asking questions about the littlest details even if theyâre common knowledge -- heâs gotta be thorough, right?Â
Ridoc may be the class clown type, but heâs smarter than a lot of people think. He comes up with a bunch of jokes that actually help you remember things. Somehow manages to relate the most complex topic in your book to a sandwich, and it actually works. Heâs incredibly smug about this for the rest of the week, especially when you get the highest score in the class (heâll take payment in kisses, thank you.)
Bodhi makes flashcards with you, quizzing you and giving you a kiss if you get it right (this definitely is not a distraction, and things definitely donât escalate from here, nope.) Heâs also really good at proofreading essays, and gives excellent feedback regarding the structure and the order of the information.
Liam sits there with you all the while, completely silent, working on one of his wood carvings at the other end of the table, but you know heâs there and heâs watching -- and that provides a healthy amount of peer pressure and keeps you on task. Heâs an incredibly observant person, and he can see the stress building; he knows when to intervene and suggest that you take a break.
Sloane is the best person to commiserate with. She doesnât want to be doing this either, but sheâs also incredibly stubborn, and she doesnât give up; after a healthy amount of complaining, sheâs forcing you both to keep trying until it works / until itâs done, and then youâre treating yourselves to something for getting it over with, because you deserve it.
Sawyer is gentle and supportive, having a heart-to-heart conversation with you and reminding you that yes, this is important, but the world will not stop turning if you fail one exam. He knows how it feels to be compared to his peers, especially in how long it takes you to accomplish something (poor bb) and doesnât want you stressing yourself out about that, either.Â
Imogen is the opposite, all tough love, giving you gentle but firm reminders: âyou didnât make it this far just to give up,â, âI know you can do this, so do it,â but she balances it out with tender affirmation when youâre done. Sheâll even let you skip out on training for the day since youâve been studying so hard (and she takes training seriously, so this is more of a reward than it seems).Â
Miraâs default approach is similar to Imogenâs, but she can see that youâre reaching your limit and dials it back, being more gentle with you and doing whatever you need -- encouragement? someone to just sit there? help / explanation / etc? sheâs got you covered. herds you into bed at a reasonable hour so youâll be well rested for the classes and exams.
And all of them are incredibly proud of you for working so hard and getting good grades đ€

Black Dahlia - 16. Mares In His Stable
With Threshing over for another year, it's time for everyone to celebrate.
Set Pre Fourth Wing/Books
Garrick Tavis x OC (Dahlia Aetos)
Black Dahlia Masterlist | Masterlist
The dining hall is loud as everyone celebrates. Well those of us now classified as riders celebrate. As I scan the room, those who did not manage to bond a dragon today are absent. And I donât blame them. This was essentially rubbing in their face that they werenât worthy of being a rider.
As my eyes continue to scan the room I note how many of us new riders had forgone our jackets, many showing off their new relics. I was one of the few who had not opted to show off my new relic. Especially not while my brother was around.
When weâd been gifted our dragon relics in the flight field, I had to fight back a smirk as the heat that engulfed me wrapped around my right arm. The blue and black relic wrapping around my arm and shoulder. Reminding me very much of the relics the marked ones bared. Iâd angered my father enough for one day, so Iâd decided to keep it hidden for another time My brother no doubt delivering the news himself once he saw the marking for himself. As if sensing my gaze Dain turns, our eyes meeting across the room.
âI canât tell if he wants to kill you or fuck you with how heâs staring at you right now,â Imogen says loudly as she takes the empty seat across from me.
I choke on the drink Iâd been taking, Bodhi quick to start thumping me on the back to help the coughing fit Iâm caught in by Imogenâs words as I tear my gaze from Dainâs.
âP-please tell me you are not talking about my brother.â I say once my coughing fit has passed, the rest of our group bursting into laughter at my words as I gasp for air.
Imogen smirks and shakes her head while laughing at me, âFuck no. Though if incest is your thing-â
âFuck no. Now please tell me who the hell youâre talking about.â
Bodhi turns his head, scanning the room as we wait for Imogen to reply. He must find the person in question, the corners of his mouth lifting in a smirk that reminds me too much of his older cousin. âDefinitely the second one,â He teases as Imogen nods in agreement.
I turn my head as I follow Bodhiâs gaze, my eyes landing on Garrick as he leans up against a wall on the other side of the room. Our eyes lock for a brief second before he averts his gaze to another rider who starts walking up to him. The way she sways her hips as she walks up to me tells me exactly what she wants. As she steps into his reach, he grasps her by the waist and pulls her against him before leaning down and pulling her into a kiss. A kiss that quickly turns heated, and there's no doubt in my mind at what those two will be doing tonight.
âHate to burst your bubble, but looks like youâre wrong Bodhi,â I say as I pat him on the back sympathetically. âLooks like he just wants to murder me and the feeling is mutual.â
âHeâs really not-â
âI swear to the gods if you say heâs really not that bad I will pour this entire drink over your head.â I warn him, holding my drink above his head.
Bodhi looks between me and the drink, debating if to finish his sentence. After a few seconds his shoulders sagas he sighs in defeat. Clearly deciding it was not worth having a drink poured over his head for.
âDo I want to know why youâre holding a drink over my cousins head like that?â Xaden drawls from next to me, his voice startling me causing the drink to slosh over the edge of the cup and a few drops landing on Bodhiâs head.
âYour cousin thought it would be a good idea to try tell her Garrick isnât that bad.â Austin chimes in.
I turn and narrow my gaze at her, and all she does is smile sweetly at me. She was no longer affected by any glares I sent her way. Always seeing past them now she knew me too well. I hear her giggle as I roll my eyes and turn my attention back to Xaden.
âWhich I might believe if he didnât act like I was the worse thing to happen in his life.â I say venomously, earning a few chuckles from our group.
âAt the risk of getting a drink poured over my own head. He might surprise you Aetos.â He drawls, my eyes narrowing as he uses my last name.
âI highly doubt that given how heâs treated me so far.â I snap back, Xadenâs brow furrowing at my words. âAnd on that note I will see you all tomorrow as Iâve had enough of this Garrick talk.â
After months of sleeping in the crowded barracks, Iâd had the best nights sleep since Iâd gotten here. It felt weird to have my own space again, no Austin and Liz to talk with before bed. But I had missed my alone time. Missed having my own space. Though somehow I knew with having my own room now, I still wouldnât get as much alone time as I would like. I could already imagine Bodhi knocking on my door and barging in whenever he got the chance. I was going to have to learn to ward my door as soon as I could, even if it wasnât something I would learn for a while, I would find a way.
I grab my jacket from the back of the chair where I had thrown it last night before walking into the hallway and closing the door. I hear the sound of a door opening behind me, and I turn to see Garrick walking out of the room across from mine. He goes to walk off, but as I lean against the doorway and cross my arms cross my chest, his head turns to look at me as he stops.
For the first time since Iâd gotten here, he doesn't glare at me when our eyes meet. And I hated to say it was a nice change to not see his face in a glare at the sight of me. His gaze travels over me before snagging on the relic that now adorned my arm and was on full display due to not putting my jacket on yet. His eyes go wide as he takes it in, clearly having the same thoughts I did when Iâd looked at it after Threshing.
âFor someone that hates me so much, you sure seem to like starting at me. Maybe I should paint you a picture.â My words snapping him out of whatever trance he was in, his hazel eyes meeting mine again.
âThanks, but I politely decline that offer.â He huffs at me, folding his own arms over his chest.
âYou, do something politely? That would be a first.â I snap back as I smirk at him, his brow furrowing slightly, but not into its usual glare.
âI can do many things politely.â He says with a smirk, slowly walking over to me. âMaybe if you didnât act they way you do, you might get some of the benefits like your fellow rider did last night.â
My laughter echoes off the walls of the empty hall, Garrickâs smirk dropping at my reaction as he stops in front of me, having to crane my neck to look up at him. âIf there was anyone I want to reap those benefits from, you would be the last one on my list. Donât want to catch a disease from one of the many mares you keep in your stable on rotation.â
I expected his usual glare to return, but it doesnât. The lumbering oaf just smirks down at me as he leans closer. My heart rate picks up at the close proximity, a slight heat rising up my neck. Shit. I was not reacting to this bastard.
âOh donât worry little Aetos, I keep the mares in my stable quite clean if you ever change your mind.â His voice dropping to an octave which does not help the way my body was reacting. I might find him attractive, but that was it.
I open my mouth to reply before a door bangs open next to us, Bodhi bounding out into the hallway before coming to a halt as he notices Garrick and I. Garrick is quick to respond, turning my head to watch as he storms out of the hallway towards the stairs. A chuckle draws my attention back to Bodhi, still standing where he had halted in the hallway with a wide grin on his face.
âNot a fucking word. I do not want to hear it.â I snap at him before shrugging my jacket on and storming off.
âI wasnât going to say anything!â
