Shinto ceremonies at Sui gusuku?

I was shocked when I saw this image on the official Shurijo Castle Park Instagram account this past May 25-26. Shinto priests performing a fully Japanese – not Okinawan, or Luchuan (Ryukyuan) – Shinto ceremony at the construction site where the Main Hall of Sui gusuku, the former royal palace of the Lūchū (J: Ryūkyū) Kingdom, known as Shurijō in Japanese, is currently being rebuilt following a…

We are all lonely. I sometimes think that that is all that life is. We're just fighting not to be alone.

Kwn - Back of the Club gives me Shuri. Wakanda’s night life has got to be it. Only black people, no problems, and vibranium, they’re having a time. And Shuri has self restraint as reliable as a rubber band 😭 They can’t go back to the castle? lab? idk what its called, so the back of the club and a cigarette is all she’s got. Plus the newfound gay freedom she must have in some sense has to be explored. My wish for Shuri is peace and to get laid. 😂💋

I Want You

ꜱᴜᴍᴍᴀʀʏ: Wakanda’s nightlife doesn’t need clout, it is the moment. Shuri came to disappear into the lights for one night—nothing more. But when she sees you? Yeah. Nah. She’s not walking out untouched.

ᴡᴏʀᴅ ᴄᴏᴜɴᴛ: ~ 3.1k

ɢᴇɴʀᴇ: club tension, queer awakening, sneaky rendezvous, slow burn turned fast heat, post-royalty problems

ᴠɪʙᴇ: Glitter on your collarbone. Bass in your chest. Her hands on your waist. Just a little taste of freedom she wasn’t supposed to want this bad.

ᴡᴀʀɴɪɴɢꜱ: SMUT. explicit language, sexual content (fingering, grinding, public play), mentions of queer repression, smoking, tension so thick M’Baku could cut it with a blade

I feel her before I see her.

It’s in the air shift—the kind that makes your skin tighten, the hairs on your arms lift. Wakanda’s nightlife is a thing of legend: glowing streets, gold-threaded silks, bass so deep it could rattle bone. But tonight, it’s her that hums beneath the surface. Not the music. Not the crowd. Just Shuri.

I see her near the DJ booth, chin high, posture tight like she’s bracing for war—but wearing that war in a cropped vest and low-slung pants that don’t belong to any royal decree. Her arms are bare.

So are her eyes. Sharp and soft all at once, scanning the room like she dares someone to name her title.

She finds me. And rolls her eyes. I grin, leaning back against the bar like I didn’t just catch the wind knocked out of me. “Queen,” I mouth.

She doesn’t wave. Doesn’t nod. But her lips twitch. It’s enough.

I don’t go to her. Not yet. Instead, I dance. The floor moves like water, and I let it carry me. Body rolling slow, arms grazing strangers, sweat turning to shimmer under the lights. I want her to watch. And I know she is. Because when I finally drift closer—pretending I don’t notice how the circle parts to let me through—her gaze is molten.

“You’re outside,” I murmur, close enough to kiss but I don’t.

“Only for a moment,” she says. Her voice is low. Careful. Like she’s scared of spilling.

“I missed you.”

Her eyes flick over me like she doesn’t believe that. “You didn’t act like it.”

I shrug. “You had a country to save. I wasn’t about to compete with national security.”

That gets a breath out of her. Not quite a laugh, but something human. Something cracking.

We dance. Slowly at first. Close, but not too close. She moves like someone who’s been away from her body too long. Calculated steps. Intentional distance.

I don’t push. I let her settle. Let her feel me—hips loose, neck tilted, rhythm already pulsing through my spine.

But then I graze her wrist. Just barely. And she exhales like a fault line. Her hands find my waist before her mind does. I feel it. That snap.

Shuri was never shy. But this is different. It’s hunger masquerading as curiosity. Her fingers grip like she’s forgotten what softness feels like.

Like she’s starved for it. And when she pulls me flush, when our chests meet and she exhales against my collarbone like it’s sacred—It’s over.

She doesn’t speak. Just moves with me. We melt into shadow, into sweat, into music thick enough to drown in. Our foreheads touch. Her breath is hot against my lips but she still won’t kiss me. Not yet. Like it’ll mean too much.

“You smoke now?” I ask, noticing the slender silver case peeking from her waistband.

“Not often,” she says. “Just… when I need to remember I’m not a god.”

“Come on.”

I take her hand. She lets me.

Outside, the air bites cool against damp skin. We find the alley behind the club—tucked between stone walls and low vines, gold-lit from behind but dim in front. It smells like sweat and dust and possibility.

She leans against the wall like it’s the only thing holding her up.

“Give me one,” I say.

She raises a brow. “You don’t smoke.”

“I’m mourning something too.”

Her jaw clenches. Then she hands me the cigarette, lights it for me. Her fingers brush my lips as she holds the flame steady. I inhale, exhale. Pass it back.

“I’m sorry I left you,” she says suddenly. Quiet. Unflinching. “I didn’t know how to be anything but… the crown.”

I nod. “You didn’t have to explain. I would’ve stayed anyway.”

“I know,” she says. “That’s why I left.”

I look at her, really look. And there it is—grief sitting behind her eyes like an old friend. But so is want. Raw. Heavy. Unhidden.

I step in, tilting my head just enough to force her gaze to mine.“You need to be touched,” I whisper.

Her breath hitches. “And I know how to touch royalty.”

She lets out a small laugh, almost a scoff. But I see her hands. They’re shaking. Not from fear. From restraint. That tight coil she’s had to live with for months—maybe years—just to survive. But here, now? There’s no council. No war. No lab.

Just the night. The beat still throbbing through the walls. And me. “Nikupende.” she says under her breath. Voice broken open.

My lips part. “What does that mean?” She finally looks at me like she’s drowning.

“I want you.”

She’s looking at me like she wants to crawl inside my chest.

Like the beat from the club is still in her, pulsing through every nerve. Her body’s taut, jaw clenched, but her hands are back on my hips, and this time—she’s not letting go.

“I want you,” she says again, this time steadier. Firmer. But I don’t move. Not yet.

“You sure?”

She frowns. “Yes.”

I tilt my head. “No, I mean—are you sure? You just came back from leading a war. I know you’re tired. I know you haven’t… touched anybody in a while. I’m not tryna take advantage of that.”

Her face softens just a fraction. Then flattens again into amused irritation. “You think I don’t know what I want?”

“No,” I say quickly. “I think you’re full of grief. I think you’re used to people needing you, not wanting you. And I think you’re about two seconds from kissing me to shut me up.”

Her eye twitches. Then she kisses me. It’s hard. Hot. Immediate. But when we break, I’m still not done.

“You don’t owe me anything, Shuri.”

She groans. “S’thandwa sami. Please.”

My eyes widen. “Did you just call me—”

“Yes.” She drags her mouth along my jaw, then my ear. “And you’ll hear it again if you stop overthinking.”

“But—”

She grabs my face. Kisses me again, softer this time. Then murmurs against my lips, “I want to feel something that isn’t duty.”

That’s all I need.

The alley’s too public. So we don’t go far—just into the private lounge behind the building, past the guards who don’t ask questions, into the space meant for royals and visiting dignitaries. It smells like sandalwood and citrus, and the couches are too soft for anything appropriate.

She drops onto one and pulls me with her, long legs spreading as I straddle her thighs. We don’t rush. I cup her jaw, running my thumb along her cheek like she’s breakable. She closes her eyes.

“I got you,” I whisper. “I swear I got you.”

When our mouths meet again, it’s slow. Our tongues move like we’ve got all night—wet and patient, letting each other taste what we missed. Her hands settle on my back, under my shirt, warm and sure now. Not shaking. Just pulling me closer.

My fingers ghost along her sides. Her breath catches.

“Still good?” I ask.

She rolls her eyes. “Yes.”

I lean back. “You can say no at any time.”

She actually laughs. “If I didn’t want this, you’d already be gone.”

She spreads her fingers across my chest, like she’s memorizing me. Like she’s grateful. I let her. Let her touch. Let her relearn the world through skin instead of blood.

Her lips find my collarbone. Then the center of my chest. Each kiss is a question and a thank you rolled into one.

“I’ve never done this… like this,” she murmurs.

“Like what?”

“Where it feels like I might cry and cum at the same time.”

I grin. “Then I’m doing it right.”

She moans—low and breathy—as I guide her hand between my thighs.

“Feel how warm I am for you?” I whisper. Her breath stutters.

“You still want this?” She doesn’t answer with words.

Kkeeping my forehead pressed to hers. “Go slow, baby. You don’t have to be strong right now.”

“I don’t want to be,” she admits. “Not with you.”

She notices the dress when I straddle her again—short, sleek, sinful. Black like night. Like secrets. The hem rides up just enough to tease the tops of my thighs, and when I shift, she feels everything.

Her breath catches. “You’re not wearing anything under this.”

“Didn’t plan on needing them,” I whisper.

She lets out a low groan, head falling back against the velvet cushion like she’s praying for strength. Her hands grip my waist and slide down, under the dress, fingertips dragging over skin that’s already burning.

“Do you always come to see me like this?” she asks, voice hoarse.

“Only when I think you might need to forget you’re queen for a minute.”

Her eyes flick up, dark and focused. “And what does that make you? My subject?”

I smile. “Your peace.”

Something shifts in her face. That one hit too close to the truth.

She doesn’t say anything else. Just tilts her head and kisses the inside of my thigh—slow and deliberate. Then again. Higher this time.

Until I’m gasping softly, gripping her shoulders like she might disappear if I don’t hold tight enough.

“You’re already trembling,” she murmurs.

“Because you’re the one touching me.”

Another kiss, this one just beneath the swell of me. Hot breath skating over wet skin. My hips twitch.

She looks up. “Tell me to stop.”

“Don’t you dare.”

Her tongue finally licks a slow line up my center and I shudder. Her hands slide around to grip my thighs, keeping me wide, grounded, spread just for her. There’s nothing messy about it. Not yet. Just lips and tongue and reverence.

Like she’s tasting something holy.

“Mm,” she hums softly against me. “S’thandwa sami. You don’t know what you’re doing to me.”

I bite my lip. “You eat like you been starved.”

“I have been.”

Another. This one firmer. My back arches.

Her mouth moves with aching precision—like she’s learning me, memorizing me, savoring every moan I give her like it’s the only sound she wants to hear.

She’s slow, intentional, patient with her pressure. And when she locks her lips around my clit, she groans like I belong to her.

Like she’s anchoring herself in the way I taste. I push her head gently, thighs trembling around her ears. “Fuck baby…”

“Shhh,” she murmurs against me. “Let me.”

I fall back, eyes fluttering, dress bunched around my waist, and her mouth still devoted. She holds my thighs open like a job. Like her life depends on it.

It does. Just a little. Because with every flick of her tongue, every hum, every praise she whispers into me like a prayer, I feel her unraveling. The tension bleeding out of her, replaced with heat. With want. With need.

“You feel so good,” she moans. “You’re so soft. So warm. You’re mine tonight.”

I cry out. My hips grind down. She growls. Then I’m close. Closer than I should be. But it’s her voice—deep, honeyed, reverent—that pushes me over.

“That’s it, baby. Let go. I’ve got you. I need to have you.”

I do. Shuddering. Fingers curled in her hair, legs locking around her head as I fall apart against her mouth.

She stays there. Doesn’t let up. Doesn’t stop kissing me even as I come down—soft licks, gentle suckles, tiny praises between breaths.

“You’re incredible,” she says, voice wrecked. “You’re—” She kisses the inside of my thigh. “More than I should ever touch.” Another kiss. “But I’m going to keep touching you.”

I hum, breathless. “Then keep going.”

She looks up at me with wet lips, flushed cheeks, and something dangerous in her eyes.

“Don’t tell me that,” she says. “I’ll make you come again.”

I smile lazily, pulling her up by the collar.

“I’d love that.”

She’s still panting when I pull her up from between my thighs. Lips slick. Eyes hooded. My dress is still hiked up around my waist, but I don’t care. I let her sit back on the couch, catching her breath like she didn’t just try to taste her way into my soul.

But it’s my turn now.

She doesn’t even have time to speak before I swing my leg around, straddling her again. I press soft kisses to her neck, her jaw, just behind her ear. Her hands rest heavy on my thighs, but she doesn’t guide me. Not yet. She lets me move.

“You good?” I whisper.

She nods, eyes fluttering. “Better than good.”

I grin. “Still gonna ask.”

She opens her mouth to sass me, probably. But I shut it with a kiss. Deep. Slow. I taste myself on her tongue and moan into it. She groans, fingers digging into my hips.

When I pull back, I whisper, “Lay down for me.”

Her eyes darken. “You sure?”

“You just made me come on your face,” I say with a soft smirk. “I’m very sure.”

She chuckles, but there’s heat there—surprise, too. Like she’s not used to being handled. Not like this.

I guide her down, slow. Kiss her the whole way. Hands on her ribs, then her sides, then her waistband. I don’t rush. I drag her pants down like I’m unwrapping something rare. Something forbidden.

She lets me. Lets me kneel between her legs, lets me push her thighs apart, lets me kiss the inside of her knee, her inner thigh, the curve of her hipbone.

I look up. “You’re beautiful like this.”

Her jaw tightens. “Don’t do that.”

“Do what?”

“Say it like you mean it.”

“I do.”

Her breath catches. Her hips twitch under my hands.

I kiss her again—lower this time. “You need this, don’t you?” She nods, barely.

“Say it.”

“I need it,” she whispers.

“Who you need?”

“You.”

“Good.”

Then I dive in. No teasing now. No light licks or shy kisses. I eat like I’m trying to make her forget. Like her pussy’s the last meal I’ll ever get. I suck on her clit like I own it. Sloppy, messy, loud.

My tongue slides everywhere—inside her, around her, circling like I’m drawing constellations between her legs. She gasps—back arching, hands flying to my hair. “Fuck!”

That’s right. Fuck.

She tries to stay quiet. Royal. Controlled. But I don’t let her. I moan against her. Suck harder. Grip her thighs and pull her closer like I’m drowning in her and loving it.

“Shit—baby, wait,” she pants. “You—you…”

I hum against her. “Mmm?”

“Fuck”

I chuckle. Keep going. Faster now. Sloppier. My face is buried so deep I’m not even coming up for air. Her slick is everywhere. All over my chin, my nose, my cheeks. And I love it.

She’s shaking. Legs trembling.

“You gone come for me?” I murmur against her clit, flicking my tongue just the way she needs.

“Yes—yes, yes, yes!”

Her back arches off the couch. Her thighs clamp around my head. I don’t stop. I can’t stop. Not when she’s like this—voice cracking, body twitching, mouth open in something between a sob and a moan.

“Shit—don’t stop!”

She falls apart. Hard. Wet. Loud. My name stumbles out of her mouth like she can’t hold it in anymore. I keep licking through it, swallowing everything she gives me, moaning into her like I want her to feel me from the inside out.

When she finally relaxes, boneless and dazed, I press one more kiss to her clit—gentle now. Then her thigh. Then her stomach as I crawl back up.

Her chest is heaving. Face flushed. Eyes glassy.

“Still good?” I whisper.

She nods slowly, then pulls me into a kiss that says everything. Her tongue tastes like herself now. Like she wants more. Like she might not ever let me go.

“You’re gonna ruin me,” she breathes.

I smile against her mouth. “That’s the plan.”

She’s still breathing heavy when I tuck a kiss beneath her ear. Her body’s relaxed under me, but I can feel the tension curling back in—not stress, not grief, just the heat of need. Still humming through her bloodstream like she ain’t even halfway satisfied.

I stroke her side. “You okay?”

She nods slowly, then turns her face toward mine. Her eyes are lazy, warm, and hungry.

“Not here.”

I blink. “Huh?”

“I want to take you home.”

It’s not even a question. It’s barely a whisper. But it hits like a full-body chill.

I smile. “Yeah?”

She nods. “This couch too small. These walls too public. And you…” Her voice drops. “You make me greedy.”

“You sure you’re ready for that?”

She exhales a laugh. “You just sucked the strength out my legs and kissed me like we were married. I’m already in too deep.”

I grin, cheeks warm. “Say less.”

I help her up—she wobbles a bit, grabs my waist for balance, and mutters something sharp in Xhosa that makes me laugh.

“See? Weak in the knees.”

“Shut up,” she mumbles. “Wait ‘til I get you horizontal. I’m reclaiming the throne.”

“Oh, I’m scared.”

“You should be.”

We don’t waste time. The guards are still outside, but she waves them off with a sharp flick of her hand. One glance at her swollen lips, at the way I’m clinging to her arm in this little black dress, and they know better than to ask questions.

The hover transport is quiet. Smooth. She keeps one hand on my thigh the whole ride—thumb stroking soft circles like she’s grounding herself, like she needs to touch me to stay upright. Her other hand eventually slides up, fingers weaving with mine.

“You okay?” I whisper, squeezing her palm.

She nods once, eyes locked on mine. “For the first time in a long time.”

The palace glows under the moonlight—slick and elegant, but cold in the way royal things always are. Until we walk in, and she leads me past the halls and empty corridors to her private wing. Her room smells like sage and sandalwood.

The bed’s massive. The lights adjust to her mood the second the doors close. That’s when I see it.

Her shoulders drop. Not in defeat. In release. She’s safe now. And she brought me into it.

I step in front of her, reaching up to tug her shirt over her head. She lifts her arms wordlessly. Then kisses me slow. Deep. No rush. Just home.

“Shuri,” I whisper between breaths, “you sure?”

“I’ve never been more sure,” she says, thumb brushing my bottom lip. “I’m tired of holding back. Tonight, I want to feel everything. With you.”

My heart thumps. “Then let me make you feel it again.”

Her mouth finds mine once more. We fall into bed, tangle ourselves into the sheets, and this time, we don’t need to be quiet.

In the morning, the crown will still be hers. But tonight she’s just mine. I plan to keep it that way.

Ikemen Prince Real Life Castles

Hi babes! I'm feeling like adding yet another layer of delusion to our already delulu brains, so here’s my take on what IkePrince castles would look like in real life. This way, you can visit them while pretending to be Belle running down the hallways looking for your beloved prince.

Rhodolite

The Rhodolite castle would be grand and ornate, with French Renaissance and Baroque influences. Expect elegant stonework, elaborate gardens with fountains, and decorative elements like balustrades and statues. The interior would feature intricate tapestries, gold accents, and chandeliers, exuding an air of refined nobility and romance.

Some examples could be:

Château de Chambord - France

Palace of Versailles - France

Château de Chantilly - France

Château de Chenonceau - France

Schönbrunn Palace - Austria

Dunrobin Castle - United Kingdom

Lednice na Moravě - Czechia

Château de Ussé - France

Obsidian

The Obsidian castle would have a stern, gothic architecture with imposing towers and stone walls. Think of dark, medieval castles with fortified structures, high walls, and sharp angles. Interiors would be minimalistic and austere, emphasizing function over ornamentation but with a touch of grandeur in public spaces.

Some examples could be:

Hohenzollern Castle - Germany

Edinburgh Castle - Scotland

Moszna Castle - Poland

Burg Eltz - Germany

Garibaldi Castle - Russia

Château du Bousquet - France

Inveraray Castle - United Kingdom

Cologne Cathedral - Germany

Benitoite

The Benitoite castle would be built with Italian Renaissance and Mediterranean styles in mind. Expect warm-toned stone, arches, and decorative columns. Courtyards would be lush, with fountains and intricate tile work. Interiors might have frescoes, marbled halls, and large windows to let in light, creating a grand yet inviting atmosphere.

Some examples could be:

Palazzo Ducale - Italy

Belvedere Palace - Austria

Howard Castle - United Kingdom

Catherine Palace - Russia

Palazzo Pitti - Italy

Miramare Castle - Italy

Swallow’s Nest Castle - Ukraine

The Royal Palace - Spain

Jade

The Jade castle would be charming, integrated with its natural surroundings. Built in a style that’s less imposing and more in harmony with nature, it would be surrounded by gardens and water features. Think of understated beauty, with an emphasis on wooden accents, greenhouses, and large windows overlooking gardens and the forest.

Some examples could be:

Stoke Rochford Hall Leisure Club - United Kingdom

Harlaxton Manor - United Kingdom

Knebworth House - United Kingdom

Castle de Haar - The Netherlands

Château de Villandry - France

Lowenburg Castle - Germany

Brissac Castle - France

Vouzeron Castle - France

Tanzanite

The Tanzanite castle would be exotic and filled with intricate details, such as domed roofs, archways, and extensive mosaics. The castle would feature courtyards with fountains, lush gardens, and reflective pools, creating a tranquil and mystic vibe. Interiors would be lavish, with patterned tile work, vibrant colors, and plush furnishings.

Some examples could be:

La Sagrada Familia - Spain

Alhambra - Spain

Golestan Palace - Iran

Ali Qapu Palace - Iran

Topkapi Palace - Turkey

Alcázar de Sevilla - Spain

Taj Mahal - India

Shrine of Hazrat Ali - Irak

Kogyoku

The Kogyoku castle would have traditional Japanese architecture, with wooden structures, curved tiled roofs, and wide, open spaces for viewing nature. The castle would be surrounded by gardens with koi ponds and sakura trees. Interiors would feature shoji screens, tatami mats, and simple but elegant furnishings.

Some examples could be:

Himeji Castle - Japan

Matsumoto Castle - Japan

Shuri Castle - Japan

Nijo Castle - Japan

Osaka Castle - Japan

Katsuyama Castle - Japan

Nagoya Castle - Japan

Kinkakuji Castle - Japan

Achroite

The Achroite castle would be a blend of Scandinavian minimalism and rugged fortification, built with stone and wood. It would sit atop a hill or near a lake, with a natural and slightly harsh look. The design would be simple, with a focus on functionality and integration with the landscape, including large fireplaces and wood-paneled rooms for warmth.

Some examples could be:

Neuschwanstein Castle - Germany

Château de Ferreries - France

Château de Boismorand - France

Château de Vigny - France

Château d'Haroué - France

Hallgrimskrikja Cathedral - Iceland

Bojnice Castle - Slovakia

Pierrefonds Castle - France

And that’s everything for now! I’m planning to continue this exploration with possible traditional dances, music, customs, fashion, food, and festivities each kingdom might have. What do you think? What would you like to explore next?

See you on the next post my dears!!!!! XOXO

The Pull Of You - Part 9

Marvel

Pairing: Steve Rogers x reader x Bucky Barnes

Soulmates - Feeling the pull between each other indicates a bond. A kiss confirms it.

Summary: You meet Steve and Bucky on a Tuesday. Steve ignores the soulmate pull, Bucky can't. There's something about you that neither can shake, even when you're wearing one of Clint's t-shirts and your unicorn slippers. After weeks of slipping into your bed Bucky decides he can't hold back anymore. He's telling you after the mission, whether Steve is all in or not. When you don't come back from the mission, they are both ready to burn the world down and the team have the matches to help. But is everything as it seems and have they been betrayed by someone on the inside.

Chapter Summary: The cracks start to show, and the reader final speaks.

Chapter Warning: Mentions of torture, water boarding, bringing a prisoner and held against will.

When Steve, Bucky and the others start to filter downstairs after quick showers, they are met with Tony’s raised voice and they quickly learn why.

Standing in the middle of the briefing room are Tony, Pepper and Peter, along with a few select guests.

“What were you thinking kid?”

“I just thought they could help. I was near Murdock’s office and I thought…”

“You didn’t think!” Tony yelled. “Stuff like this? One of us being taken, you shut it down! You don’t broadcast it to people we barely know!”

“Tony, he thought he was doing the right thing.” Pepper said softly reaching for her soulmate.

“I just thought they could help.” Peter said quietly. “You said the Wakandans were here. I’m sorry.”

“Peter, you have done what you thought was right, just as the Lieutenant did. I am sure our new friends can help too.” T’Challa told him.

Steve took a moment to scan the room. Shuri sat at the large table her tablet in hand and multiple projections across the room. Bucky had silently moved to stand behind her and his eyes flickered across the screens, taking in everything he could. Clint and Natasha moved to flank him, mirroring his actions. On the other side of the room looking like he didn’t want to be there stood a pissed off Frank Castle. Steve’s not sure if Castle’s pissed off that Peter has pulled him into this, that you’ve been taken or if that’s just his natural expression.

Resting bitch face, you’d say.

Their eyes lock, both seem to stand up straighter before Frank gives him a firm nod. Tony is still telling off Peter, the kid getting the brunt of his emotions.

“Look as much as the kid is a pain in the fucking ass,” Frank interrupts, “he was right. The three of us are as lethal in the field as any of you, you need as many eyes on this as possible and we owe her a debt.”

“What?” Steve asks.

“I found the people responsible, the actual people this time, that took my family from me. A whole stack of evidence, location, everything.”

“Y/N?” Bucky asked. Frank nodded. Stood a few feet in front of Frank and to the side of Peter were Matt Murdock and Elektra. The latter was scowling at Tony. Matt’s head was tilted listening intently. Bucky looked across at them. “And you two?”

“Does it matter?” Elektra asked.

“Just want to know who’s showing up to help our girl.”

“Your girl Sergeant? Why didn’t you tell her? Why didn’t you tell her James, how you really felt?”

Bucky shook his head and huffed.

“You don’t know us.”

“That doesn’t answer my question.”

“Elektra.” Matt interrupted.

“Yes my love.”

“Enough.” Matt told her. “Y/N, saved our lives. The trafficking ring a few months ago, down at the docks, you might of heard about it.”

“I saw the report.” Nat said. “S.H.I.E.L.D had it under observation. The building collapsed. There was no explosion. The hostages were all standing outside.”

“That building fell like jenga blocks. We were still inside making sure we had everyone. S.H.I.E.L.D had a camera set up on a lamppost across the street. She saw some bricks out of place, knew something was wrong. As it came down, we fell through a trapdoor. We came around to her standing over us talking about booby traps, buildings built in certain decades and the type of bricks and timber used.”

“Then we are all here for the same reason and the same mission. To bring Y/N home.” T’Challa home.

“T’Challa, you said earlier that you owed her a debt. What did you mean by that?” Steve asked.

T’Challa went to answer but was stopped by voices in the corridor. Scott and Hope appeared, wearing their mission gear and carrying overnight bags. Everyone turned to look at Peter.

“It wasn’t me! I swear!” He said holding his hands up in surrender. Everyone turned to look at Sam.

“Nope.”

“Actually,” Pepper confessed “that was me.”

“Is that everyone? Anyone else send a text? Make a call?” Steve asked.

“I may have put a call into the wizards of Greenwich village but they’re unreachable.” Tony added.

“And you’re giving the kid shit for calling them?” Bucky pointed out, flickering his head in the direction of Matt, Elektra and Frank. Tony snarked back and a back and forth started between them. Clint joined in here and there. The room got louder. Steve observed the room as Bruce, who’d arrived as Tony was telling off Peter, now sat in the corner with his head in his hands. Scott was introducing himself to the guests as Hope hugged Nat, Wanda and then Pepper. Sam spoke quietly to Okoye and Rhodey. Pietro whispered in his sisters ear as she also watched the room. Vision appeared at Steve’s side.

“Captain Rogers. I have a theory.”

“Go on.”

“You’re observing the room, just as I and Wanda have, what do you see?”

“I thought you had a theory, not a question.”

“You can see the team in various states of upset, they are argumentative, concerned, worried. Everyone’s emotions are running high, moments like this have happened before.”

It took Steve a split second but his eyes went wide as realisation hit him like a freight train and he turned to Vision sharply.

“They didn’t just take her for the sake of taking one of us. They took her to cause this.” Steve said gesturing around. Clint was now squaring up to Tony, as Pepper and Nat tried to keep them apart. Bucky was shrugging off Bruce as he tried to comfort him.

“That’s ENOUGH!” Steve yelled. “Knock it off! All of you! Do you think this is helping? Is this finding her?! Whoever did this hasn’t just done this to take an agent or an Avenger. They’ve done it to take HER.”

“What? Steve no, they were going to take me.”

“Actually James, if they had wanted you they would have paused the movement of the box when she kicked you out of it.” Shuri told him.

A silence of understanding spread across the room.

“So it’s personal. This ain’t just for clout.” Frank determined.

“It would seem that way Lieutenant.” Vision replied.

“Rogers is right. What you’re doing right now, the arguing, the back and forth, it’s taking away from what you need to be doing and you’re doing exactly what they want you to.” Matt told them.

“Boss, there’s a coded message on one of the S.H.I.E.L.D tip lines.” F.R.I.D.A.Y advised. “I’ve intercepted it. It contains footage of Agent Y/N.”

“Play it.” Tony ordered.

“Boss, just to warn you it’s distressing.”

A new projection opened and a video started to play. You were heavily bound to a chair, the room darkly lit. You were still in your suit but parts of it, where your trackers were, had been cut. The camera was positioned so they could see all of you but only the lower halves of your captors.

“Tilt the chair. If she won’t talk it’s time for a little water boarding. Last chance Agent, start talking.”

“Agent Y/L/N. Avengers Agent 5.”

The team watched as one of the captors leaned down and said something to you. Positioning himself on the side away from the camera and with the poorly lit room, their view of him was obscured. Their eyes continued to be fixed to the screen as the chair was tilted back and you were waterboarded. It wasn’t missed by Frank and Bucky that they were pouring the water directly over your face and didn’t use a cloth as some did.

As the team and their visitors watched the recording of you being tortured, a ripple of anger and rage spread through the group. Even Peter, probably the purest of them all, clenches his teeth. He looks away briefly but when he realises everyone else is still looking at the screen he steadies himself and looks back.

The video stops abruptly part way through your torture, with water still being poured down your face. When the team turn to look at Steve for orders, he has a darkness to his eyes that they’ve never seen before. Natasha wonders if this is what Castle looked like when he went on his rampage.

“Play it again.” Steve says.

Meanwhile…………

“I have never even heard of her, and yet you hang everything on this agent, this nobody.” The Sokovian snapped.

“She’s not a nobody.” Agent 17 replied.

“Oh I’m flattered.” You quipped, your voice hoarse, being the first time you’d spoken in days.

“Now she talks. You have anything useful to say?”

“Actually I do.”

“See, the waterboarding always works. Go on, where are the safe houses?”

“Oh it’s not that, I wanted to tell Agent 17 to go fuck himself.”

You were slapped hard across your face.

“I knew you didn’t like me but this seems a little much for not wanting to get coffee with you.”

You were hit again.

“I told you not to talk in front of her!”

You were hit again, this time it wasn’t a slap and was a clear punch.

“Enough!!! There’s a system to this! A process!”

You heard a phone vibrate and then Agent 17’s voice.

“We have orders to move forward.”

“Fine. Bring me the trolley and the knives.”

Enjoy this fic? Fancy a cuppa? My Ko-Fi.

Confederate Flag over Shuri

I don’t remember when or how exactly I first learned that when US military forces took control of Shuri castle (Sui gusuku) – the former royal palace of the Ryukyu Kingdom – on May 29, 1945, marking a significant stage towards total victory in the Battle of Okinawa, the first flag American servicemembers raised over the former palace was not that of the United States, the Stars and Stripes, but…

[artaxlivs]

I posted two snippets of this yesterday so if you want to check my page, you can see those two and it’s a three-for-one! It’s a Matt Murdock/Frank Castle established relationship and they both want to keep Clint Barton. I know you aren’t a big poly fan so this is just Frank coaxing Clint into letting himself be cuddled. Im putting that part UNDER the line so if you don’t even want to read the poly snippet, you don’t have to see it. In exchange, I’m gonna give you a snippet from The Ripple Effect which is a Winterhawk after Steve going back in time for Peggy. I miiiight try to make it fit into Thunderbolts, we’ll see. I gotta tag @kangofu-cb though because the Vigilante snippet is a dog mention 😂

Bucky hadn’t meant it rudely. He honestly thought that Clint Barton had retired to some farm after Thanos. The Avengers stopped existing and Bucky only really talks to Sam and Shuri anymore. Steve, when he can’t avoid it somehow.

So he’d honestly been surprised to see Barton, especially here in Central Park where he’s obviously been meeting with Steve on the same Fridays that Bucky has. Maybe the ones where Bucky doesn’t meet him, too.

“Sorry,” He says quickly when Steve’s eyebrows come together in disappointment. “I didn’t mean that how that sounded. Just thought you’d retired to your wife and farm.” Bucky shifts uncomfortably as Barton sighs and hands him one of the coffee cups he’s holding.

“It was a fake,” Steve answers when Barton doesn’t seem inclined. “They’re his brother’s wife and kids. He’d been keeping them safe.”

Then Bucky puts his foot in it again because apparently once wasn’t enough, when he says, “You’re not keeping them safe anymore?” And Barton stuffs the hand not holding a coffee cup into the pocket of his tattered jeans and looks away to hide the slight twitch of his left eye. It’s barely noticeable but Bucky learned through severe torture to notice every single change in his environment. “Sorry again. None of my business.”

Barton sighs and his shoulders relax from where they’d been tensed up near his ears. Bucky’s eyes flit across them with the motion. They’re kind of ridiculous, he realizes. Bucky's already clocked him as a threat but when his eyes linger on the well muscled shoulders and obvious strain of the material around Barton’s biceps, he has a fleeting feeling that he hasn’t felt in a very, very long time. Just a flutter and then it’s gone before Bucky can actually acknowledge it.

“Nah, it’s fine, man,” Barton assures him. “Uhh…they all got snapped, my brother didn’t. He spent five years thinking about all the time he’d wasted being a deadbeat. Got his shit together - eventually. He’s taking care of them now.”

Didn’t Barton go off the deep end and murder a bunch of criminals and mob bosses for his dusted family? Bucky wants to ask, because he thought for sure that’s what Sam had told him but he’s already had both of his size eleven boots in his mouth in the last five minutes so he holds his tongue, nodding sagely like he knows fuck all about families anymore.

And the snippet from Vigilante Boyfriends:

Frank shakes his head and rolls his eyes, “I’ll scratch your head and you can tell me something boring.” He waves Clint over, rolling onto his back with the arm nearest Clint open in invitation.

“Nothing that I talk about is boring,” Clint says brashly, sitting up to stare down at Frank in mock annoyance. He hesitates, though, maybe trying to figure out what Frank’s angle is. Then he just scoots right into Frank’s arms as if he doesn’t have a care in the world.

Frank’s changed his mind, Clint’s not a cat. He’s a dog that thinks he’s a cat. Just a big goofy, dog that’s been kicked around all it’s life but still trusts that people are good somehow.

Frank wants to gather him up, keep him safe, and smother him with affection. Matt told him to take it slow though, that Clint’s been a wild animal for far longer than he was ever domesticated. If he ever was. Gotta take it slow. Like feeding any stray. Can’t push or he’ll run.
