I hate to ask this cause it feels stupid but I dont wanna do a bunch of research on whatever the recent cod mw fandom discourse is,
but I saw the reblog of someone accusing you of supporting people who write sexualized pedophilia and that really is personally my only """"moral"""" with nsfw shit, (I'm a patreon subscriber and ig I just wanna know where my money's going) is THAT true?
i used to follow an artist who, 5-6 months ago made racist art featuring gaz and soap in a slave context, which I didn't like, retweet or interact with in any way. they also made under-age art of ghost soap, which I also didn't interact with . people on twitter called me out yesterday, for retweeting (months before this incident) other art they'd made as evidence I stood by/encouraged/was an avid fan of all these tropes. The art I retweeted wasn't either of these previous examples of art, but one where ghost and soap were sleeping in a bed together, as adults, peacefully. I can't emphasise enough that I have not interacted with this artist at all, for over six months. The callout in question has framed me as a close friend of theirs when, in truth, our total timeline of interactions could probably be counted on one hand, and I haven't interacted with her in so long that I genuinely forgot I was still following her.
The crux of all is this is that I did not unfollow + block this artist earlier on when the racist art was posted months ago, and then I retweeted a fic tagged with "non-con" (ghost gets soap off in a context where he can't really properly consent, they're in front of a crowd of strangers and they have to fuck, but both parties are into each other) written by a friend as I wanted to support their writing.
The pedophile claims are because I retweeted a fandom bingo post that defended loli-con without reading all the squares properly, and then immediately un-retweeted it when I properly read it. All in all, the post was on my account for maybe a few minutes.
The zoophile claims are because people say i support someone who wrote zoophilic fic and called people slurs, and I genuinely don't know who they're talking about there.
The anti-asian racism claims come from the original accusers in the callout thread thinking that I made Horangi's eyes in the monster!AU sensitive as a way of making fun of Asian eyes. The real reason is because he's a cat hybrid in that AU and cats are sensitive to light.
I tried addressing all this in a casual way earlier on in a misguided attempt to sort things out more 'civilly', and responded to an ask talking about my "support" for the artist who drew the slave Gaz art by saying the fanart in question was tone deaf and in poor taste. It wasn't enough for some people, so I'm happy to say it clearly- yes, it was racist, and the reason why I didn't want to be more aggressive is because I didn't want to extend all this mess by throwing this artist directly to the wolves - I genuinely believed them at the time when they said that wasn't that their intention, and think they should've deleted the post at the time, but not unfollowing was a decision that I made. I know now upon reflection that it was naive of me, unwarranted and frankly irresponsible to take a stranger at face value and believe they had good intentions, when the act of not deleting the post in question was evidence of a lack in remorse. In the moment, I'd thought back to my own personal experience with a friend of mine who used an asian slur in my company, who later sincerely apologised and legitimately cleaned up his act after I gave him a second chance. It informed my choice to not unfollow at the time, but there's a difference between someone you know irl for months and a stranger on the internet you've interacted with a few times. I shouldn't have coddled them in my response, and I'm sorry for not treating it with the severity it deserved. It was callous, and stupid, and indicative of internal biases that I ever thought it was a light enough offence to "see through", and I deeply deeply apologise. I promise from the bottom of my heart to do better.
That's everything so far. I didn't unfollow an artist when I absolutely should've, which i'll always strongly regret. I also retweeted a properly-tagged fic on my clearly 18+ nsfw account. I've undone both of those actions now. I hope this can be the end of it.

YN had never ever pictured herself where she is currently at right now.
Because currently, she was trying to pick between two different dresses as she went on her fifth date with a billionaire.
It sounded comical even in her head.
YN never really imagined who she would end up with but she had been through a handful of duds and thought that might set the precedent for the rest of her life.
Up until Harry, she barely even made it past a date with someone before sheâs calling it off because she canât see herself with the person.
The last time YN went out on a date, the man âforgotâ his wallet after ordering three imported beers that cost YN nearly half of a paycheck.
Their dates had been going well, YN felt less and less nervous every time that she saw Harry but she still felt the need to impress him.
She shouldnât have googled his dating history even though it doesnât confirm anything from his past - he has always been secretive and private about his personal life.
However, there are some paparazzi shots of him leaving exclusive night clubs with pretty, modelesque girls in the background behind him.
And thousands of gossip blogs who loved to predict who he was sleeping with and who he was in a relationship with.
He had disclosed to YN that he has only had one serious relationship that ended horribly when he was just beginning his career which would have been years ago.
YNâs still in her bathrobe, Harryâs coming to pick her up any moment, and sheâs wondering how nice the bra and underwear set she picked out needs to be.
Tonight was the first time Harry was taking her to his house or from what she saw on google - his 23.3 million pound estate.
YN had been surprised that he hadnât been pushy like other dates who tried to get in her pants.
The sexual tension has definitely been building but Harry hadnât made any move to do anything about it.
He hadnât asked her back to his house after any of the five dates but their kisses had been getting longer and steamier.
Particularly after the last one.
-
Harry always parked his car and walked her up to her apartment door, she appreciated that he tried to not crinkle his nose at that mildew odor or how run down the interior of the building is.
When they get to her burnt orange door, YN unlocks it and turns back around to him as he watches her with a small smile.
âDo you want to come in?â YN offers even though she knows that heâll decline, sheâs always hopeful.
âI want to but I shouldnât. Let me be a gentleman,â Harry simpers softly, his voice deep and accent thick, his hands come up to cup her jaw, âBut I am going to steal a kiss.â
âPlease,â YN agrees with excitement pumping through her veins, he leans down to connect their lips and heâs such a good kisser.
As soon as their lips connect, YN has to swallow down a moan because even though itâs just a kiss - sheâs never been more turned on in her life.
She parts her lips when he swipes his tongue across them, pushing inside once she opens up, and stroking her tongue with his.
His body is pressed up into hers, cornering her more against the door and YNâs lets the smallest whimper slip.
Sheâs about to be embarrassed but Harry growls at the noise and breaks a part for the moment, âYouâre so fuckinâ sexy.â
YN canât even blink before his mouth is back on hers, holding her jaw a bit firmer, and biting at her bottom lip.
She had never physically felt herself getting wet until right now when she actually cold feel it start to coat her folds.
âShame on you,â A scratchy voice hisses from behind them, making them split apart quickly, and they look back to see YNâs neighbor.
âSorry, Mrs. Jameson,â YN waves her hand as the woman glares at her, shaking her head before disappearing into the apartment across from them.
Harryâs thumb comes up to pull at her swollen bottom lip, âYouâre the most beautiful thing Iâve ever seen.â
YNâs never been so bold as now when she leans back up to kiss him again, âPlease, come in?â
Harry entertains one more long kiss before heâs breaking them apart and taking a step back, âLet me do this right, pet. Iâm going to make it special.â
âYou do this with all your dates?â YN jokes lamely because she just canât imagine that sheâs the first girl heâs done this with.
Harryâs smile falters a bit but he recovers quickly, his thumb now brushing over her cheekbone.
âIâm a bit embarrassed to say,â He chuckles as his eyes dart to the side in nervousness, âI havenât been this much of a gentleman in the past is all I will say.â
âWhy is it different for me? Iâm not anything special,â She replies because she doesnât think sheâs nearly anything compared to the other beautiful women heâs had on his life.
âHey,â His voice is firmer and offended by her comments, his green eyes serious and honeyed when he looks at her, âYouâre the most special person Iâve ever met.â
-
YN startles when she hears a knock at her front door, glancing over to the clock, and Harry is exactly on time for their date.
Sheâs still staring at her lingerie sets when the noise echos through her apartment, her hair and makeup was at least done but she was still only in a towel.
After the second knock comes, YNâs cursing as she rushes to the door, swinging it open, and Harryâs in the hallways looking like he just walked off the set of a photoshoot in a perfect fitting suit and styled hair.
He raises an eyebrow as he looks her up and down, âIâm not going to complain if this is all you want to wear tonight. Much easier to take it off of you.â
Oh, they were definitely fucking.
YN moves aside to let him in, he ducks down to kiss her cheek before sitting on the edge of her sofa.
âI just need like two more minutes,â She tells quickly, why was her heart rate spiking anytime he was around?
âIâll be here,â Harry replies as his eyes trace around her apartment, picking up a book on her coffee table.
YN takes a deep breath when sheâs back in her room, snatching the sexier set off the bed before shimmying a recently purchased black dress overtop.
Harry stands up and straightens his broad shoulders when she comes back into the living room, âBloody hell. You look like a dream.â
YNâs stomach flips at his seemingly sincere compliment but she canât control the intrusive comments that follow in her own mind.
Youâre not as pretty as that one model he was seen with
Youâre not a model
Heâs just being nice
âThank you. You look handsome,â She replies nervously, she hadnât been this nervous on their last two or three dates but it felt like the first time all over again.
Harry isnât dumb, he can sense it but heâs kind enough not to call her out on it as they quietly walk to his car.
After slipping in the passenger seat of the exotic car, a new one for every date, and Harry begins to drive off - it almost feels tense for a moment.
Harryâs hand twitches on the wheel, hesitating before asking, âIs it okay if I touch you?â
It makes YN feels guilty that now sheâs made Harry nervous enough that he didnât feel comfortable enough to reach over.
âYou donât have to ask,â YN assures him with more confidence in her voice as his one hand moves from the well to her thigh, his hand was big, making her thick thigh look nearly encompassed, the metal of his rings was cold against her skin.
She wanted to smack herself when she felt the arousal starting to creep in, clenching her thighs together a bit too obviously because Harry smirks to himself but doesnât make a remark.
-
âThi-this is your house?â YNâs eyes widen when they pull through the gates, men dressed in black waving them through before the gate closes quickly behind them.
The pictures on google didnât do the beauty of the sprawling estate justice.
It was so massive that YN couldnât imagine just one person living alone in there and it made her a little sad to think about Harry in this near castle all by himself.
Harry gives her a tour of some of the rooms where all YN can do is nod along to what heâs saying, compliment the astounding beauty, and not have any doubt why his house has been mentioned in Architectural Digest so much.
Then heâs leading her to the kitchen where YN takes a seat on a stool while Harry begins pulling out the ingredients to make dinner.
YN cannot stop staring at everything around her - sheâs never seen anything close to this and to think that sheâs going on date with someone who lives this extravagantly.
The conversation flows easily while Harry moves around the kitchen to prepare the chicken Alfredo, thereâs plenty of laughter and quite a few stolen kisses before they sit down for dinner.
-
Towards the end of the meal, the conversation becomes more serious, and Harry takes a sip of his wine before stating, âNone of this impresses you, does it?â
YNâs taken aback by the question, he doesnât seem angry but he just seems confused as he puts down his fork and knife, âWhat do you mean?â
Harry shakes his head like he doesnât know how to get out the words he wants to, âItâs justâŠthe cars, my house, it doesnât seem like you care. I donât mean that in a bad way, it just doesnât seem to be impressing you and IâŠI donât really know how to take that.â
âIâve never brought a date to my home before but still, usually most of the conversation on previous dates has been about my business or my cars or my estates. You havenât bought any of that up once or made a big deal about it.â
YN canât read Harry very in this moment, she doesnât know him well enough, and his face is smooth, calm but just the tiniest furrow in his brow gives away emotion.
âItâs very impressive, the life youâve built,â YN chooses her words carefully, putting down her glass of wine, âItâs something you should be proud of. I havenât brought any of those things up because those things arenât who you are. Iâve been asking you about family, hobbies, likes, dislikes because I care about you as a person, not as a âbillionaireâ or a âpublic figure.â
Harryâs face distorts a little bit, he almost looks a bit devastated as he looks down at his plate, and he doesnât say anything which makes YN think she said something wrong.
âIâm sorry, I justâŠâ YN trails off with a sigh.
âDonât apologize, please. You have absolutely nothing to apologize for,â Harry glances back up with widen eyes, he reaches across the table to put his hand over her, âIâve just never had someone care about me, I donât think. At least not for a very long time.â
YN moves her hand away, only to move it atop his and squeezes, âI think itâs lovely that youâve created a very comfortable and successful life for yourself but Iâm falling for you as a person, not the cars or the house.â
And a blinding crooked smile breaks out on Harryâs face, YN loved when his dimples popped out and carved into his cheeks, âFalling for me? Are you falling for me, darling?â
YNâs feel the heat rises up into her cheeks, looking down at the table for a moment but then Harryâs pushing his chair back and standing up - heâs strides over to YNâs chair and helps her out of it, pulling her up and into his chest.
âNo need to be embarassed, Sâjust me,â Harry rumbles as he tucks his finger up her chin and lifts her head so that he can connect their lips softly, YNâs hands coming to rest on his chest.
She giggles though, shaking her head at his words - it makes him pull back and ask, âWhatâs funny, hm?â
âYou say itâs just you,â YN murmurs, their lips are stil brushing against one anotherâs as they talk, âBut thatâs the issue, you have me on my toes. I want to impress you, not embarrass myself.â
âMâalready impressed,â Harry tells her between little pecks, âImpressed how smart you are, how independent and free-thinking you, by how fuckinâ gorgeous you are. You donât need to be embarassed if youâre falling fâme because sweetheart, mâpretty much already gone for you. Youâre everything that I want.â
âPlease,â YN says softly because they basically just confessed their fondness for each other and the dark sweet smell of his cologne was making her dizzy.
She would never consider herself sex hungry until this point, she had always been more than okay waiting a few dates to get intimate but YN had never craved someone elseâs body like this.
âPlease what, sweet girl,â Harry replies against her lips, he had her pressed up against an oak cabinet that looked to be displaying expensive, hand-painted plates and vases - the pieces shook a bit when her back hit the glass.
A single glass ends up falling off one of the higher shelfâs, shattering behind them, and YN begins to profusely apologizing, âOh my god, Iâm so sorry.â
And Harryâs unconcerned that a five thousand dollar wine glass just shattered as he shushes her quiet, âSâfine. Just want to kiss you,â He mumbles against her lips.
YN presses further into the kiss, her hands moving from his chest up and around his neck as she parts her lips, allowing their tongues to brush as his hands move to her hips - massaging at the plush as his leg sneaks in between hers, making it so she couldnât clench her thighs together.
âWant to-â YN gets distracted halfway through her sentence when his hands begin to trail up her sides, up towards her chest but he instead teases his fingers along her rib cage.
âWant toâŠ..?â Harry copies her, he even tastes good like his rich, dry red wine that they had been drinking at dinner.
âHarry,â YN huffs out when he pulls back just an inch, âYou know what I mean.â
Harry kisses once more before responding, âTell me. Do you want me to touch you?â
YN nods eagerly, she wanted so bad to press their hips together to see if he was just as needy as she was but he was purposely not doing that, âYes.â
âWhere do you want my hands or maybe even my mouth?â His voice was unfairly raspy as he teases her with his words, his hands dancing upwards until he finally cups her breasts, âHere? I think you probably have the prettiest nipples Iâve ever seen? You want me to pinch them or suck at them until their puffy and hard?â
Fuck, YNâs never been so turned on in her life.
âI want that,â YN responds tightly as he kneads at her breasts for only a moment before his hands are trailing back down the length of her dress, âPlease take me upstairs, Harry.â
âYouâre so fuckinâ pretty when you beg, havenât even told you what Iâm going to do to your cunt,â He chuckles as his lips wander from hers to the hinge of her jaw where he drags his teeth across the thin skin, âIâm going to take such good care of you. Get you so ready for me that youâll be crying on my fingers.â
âYouâre all talk at this point,â YN points out but it doesnât come off as bratty as sheâd hope because of how breathless she is by now.
Thatâs all it takes to have Harry taking YNâs hand and leading her up the winding grand staircase to his bedroom - his room wasnât overly decorated and was pretty simple with high ceilings and a bed that could easily fit five people.
Harry steps away from YN for a moment, going around the room and turning on the lights which illuminated the room in more of a romantic glow.
As he did, YNâs brain became a bit less hazy and the reality of what was about to happen sunk in, especially when Harry came over and murmurs, âCan I take this off of you?â As his fingers curled into the hem of her dress near her thighs.
And for some reason, all the insecurities and anxiety that she felt earlier about not being able to compare to the other women comes flashing into her mind but she finds herself nodding and saying, âYes.â
Harryâs pulls the hem off the dress up slowly and in between kisses until YN is raising her arms up so that he can fully take it off of her, just leaving her in her lingerie that she bought off a cheap boutique online - nothing like what those models wore.
âFuckinâ hell, are you trying to kill me?â Harry groans when he takes in her in just her bra and underwear, his eyes looking all over like they couldnât decide one place to stay put but he is kissing her shoulder before heâs kneeling down in front of her.
That was sight that YN never wanted to forget, Harry down on his knees in front of her, his lips right at her belly and his strong hands moving behind her to knead at her backside.
She didnât realize she was trembling until Harry pulls back with a frown.
YN wants to shout at him to come back when he stands back up and puts a foot of distance between them, âAre you sure you want to, pet? Your legs are shaking. I hope I havenât made you feel pressured in anyway. I apol-â
And she wants to cry because thatâs not it at all.
She instantly starts shaking her head in disagreement, interrupting him by putting her hand up, âNoâŠI want to. I really want to and you havenât pressured me one bit. Iâm justâŠbeing stupid.â
Harryâs shoulders slump a bit in relief and he steps back over to her, his hands caressing over the caps of her shoulder blades, âIf itâs not that than why are you shakinâ like a leaf, sweetheart?â
YN squeezes her eyes shut and takes a deep inhale, deciding honesty is probably the best route in this situation, âI know I shouldnât have but I googled you. And I just saw all these pictures of you leaving clubs and events with these models andâŠI know I donât look anything like them and Iâm not as sexy as them. Iâm scared youâll be disappointed with the experience.â
Harryâs quiet for a moment as he cradles her head in between his hands, his face is sincere and a bit sad when he tells her, âIâve never liked someone like I like you. And this may sound crude or forward but Iâve never wanted to lay someone out and make them come as many times as they can like I want to do with you. Iâve never been more attracted to someone in my life.â
âAny person in the past five years that Iâve hooked up with have been nothing more than that. And in the past two years or so, I can't even remember the last time Iâve done that. I know you might not believe me but I havenât been with anyone in quite some time. It stopped being fun when every single person I got with just wanted to use me for clout, popularity, bragging rights.â
âI believe you,â YN tells him, relief starting flooding into her body because he was so sincere and even though she was surprised that he was that he was so attracted to her, she believed him full heartedly.
âYou act like youâre not drop dead gorgeous,âHarry frowns as he brushes a stray hair off of her forehead, âThe prettiest thing Iâve ever seen. Never been able to look away from you since the first time you bumped into me.â
âI want you to do what you just said you wanted to do,â YN smiles with a shyness that is unusual for her, pressing herself up against him while he was still in his suit and now she was almost bare.
The delighted, hungry expression returns to Harryâs face when he hears that, taunting her as he shrugs out of his suit jacket, âOh, remind me. What did I say, pet?â
But his lips were running down the column of her neck, his hands brushing the bra straps off her shoulders until they fell, and his lips taking their place.
âYouâre such a tease,â YN accuses as she curls her fingers into his hair.
And YNâs never been teased like this, never had such buildup that wasnât even foreplay yet, every other guy sheâs been with - it had all been perfunctory and boring, predictable.
âSânot time to lay you out on mâbed yet,â Harry titters as his fingers come to her back, running along the band of her bra, and ghosting over the clasp, âHave to get to know your body first. Play with every single part of it and make sure youâll never forget how good Iâm going to make you feel.â
YNâs nearly sighs in relief when he finally slips the bra off, moving back to look at her, and she doesnât even have a moment to feel self-conscious before heâs letting out an obscene moan at the sight, cupping them before moving down to suck one of her nipples into his mouth.
It was like he was starved for touch as he pulled at the nub between his teeth before lapping at it as his hand massaging at the neglected one, his fingers moving up to rub and pinch.
âOhâŠfuck,â YN whines as she lets her head fall back, hair cascading down past her shoulders as she holds his head as close as possible to her and itâs never felt this good before when someone touched her chest.
Harry switches between the two, taking his time to languidly run his tongue over both of them after he pushes them together, and sucks at them with tight pressure.
YNâs never known that just her nipples being played with could make her aroused but she knew there had to be a damp spot on the front of her panties as Harry started walking them back towards the bed.
âThat feels so good,â YN breathes at when he begins to nip at her buds, causing just the dullest pain pain that quickly melted into more pleasant sensation.
âSweetheart, this is just the beginning. Mâgoing have you crying with pleasure by the time Iâm done with you,â Harry growls as YNâs knees hit the bed and she falls back, letting herself hit the fluffy comforter, âDo you like overstimulation?â
YNâs wriggles further onto the bed, bringing Harry with her by the hand wrapped around the nape of Harryâs neck, and tells him, âI donât know.â
Harry pulls back from her tits, looking at her with a confused expression, âWhat do you mean? Do you like when someone makes you come more than once? Like when it almost feels too much.â
Oh god, she didnât want to admit this.
âIâŠThe guys Iâve been with have never made me come,â YN mumbles as she adverts her gaze up to the ceiling in humiliation for a moment before looking back down at Harry whoâs resting his chin on her belly.
Harryâs face goes blank, a bit dumbfounded as he asks, âAre you fucking with me?â
âStop,â YN giggles as she playfully kicks at him, âItâs embarrassing I know. I just havenât been with anyone whoâs been talented in that department, okay?â
Harryâs hand wraps around her ankle, a cocky smile coating his face, âOh darlinâ, mâgoing to show you my worth tonight. Now bend your knees for me.â
YN obliges, bending her knee, and watches as Harry kneels at the end of the bed - his button-up shirt was open for the most part, showing off his defined pectoral muscles and the butterfly that was inked below.
He moves his arms underneath her thighs which made it easier to pull her bum to the edge of the bed and he drapes her legs in the crooks of his elbows and her clothed core is right in front of him.
YN lays back and closes her eyes, just allowing herself to feel as she feels her stomach moves up and down quickly as she sucks in air, and sheâs shaking now but itâs in pure anticipation for whatâs to come.
Sheâs waiting for Harry to shimmy off her underwear but instead, Harry ducks forward and begins to kiss at her puffy mound and folds over the thin fabric.
YN tries to move her hips to get more but Harry keeps her in place, he moves down in the slightest and pushes in between her folds until he pushes the fabric is against her clit with his tongue.
âH, there,â YN murmurs softly as he begins to stroke at her with his tongue while his hands grip her bum and pull her further into his mouth as he makes the underwear sodden with her slick and his mouth.
It was overwhelmingly good to have the pressure on her bud like sheâd never had before, her hands gripping the comforter that she was laying on.
YN lets out the most spoiled whine when Harry pulls his head back and he raises his eyebrow at her, he moves his one arm so that he can reach between them and put his thumb right on her clit where he gives her the most torturous, slow rubs he could.
âYouâre a greedy lilâ thing, arenât you?â Harry hums as his free hand moves up to thumb at her pebbled nipples, âAlready getting obsessed with my touch. Just like it should be, never let you leave my bed. Youâre a fuckinâ slice of heaven.â
âIâm not greedy,â YN denies weakly as her hips push up to get more friction applied from his thumb to where sheâs throbbing for him.
âYouâre riding my thumb right now,â Harry chuckles meanly, biting at the skin of her belly hard enough to make her squeak, âMost greedy lilâ thing Iâve ever seen.â
Harry keeps YN in this purgatory of pleasure and pure frustration for a good thirty minutes of switching between his mouth and thumb on her clit through her underwear.
She could feel hot tears prickling at the corner of her eyes because she wanted to come, she wanted him.
YN needed Harry and it seemed like she might die if she doesnât in this moment even if itâs dramatic - sheâs never craved anything like sheâs craving his touch.
Harry catches it as soon as the first tear dribbles down her cheek, âAm I making you desperate, baby? Mânot trying to be cruel. Iâm just trying to prove to you that you should keep me around, yâknow?â
What is he even talking about?
Sheâs definitely keeping him.
And she tells him so.
âWh-why do you have to prove it? Iâm keeping you, youâre mine,â YN gasps as he presses on her button just a little bit harder than before.
Harry preens at her words, âSay it again and Iâll make you come. Say it loud for me, pet.â
âYouâre mine, Harry,â YN tells him again, voice louder and more confident, âYouâre mine, please. Please need it.â
âGive you anything,â He murmurs, pleased as can be as he moves to the band of her panties and pulls them down her thighs until sheâs bare.
Heâs then helping her move up and to the center of the bed, splayed out with love bites all over her chest and belly, the sheen of his spit-slick kisses reflecting in the dim light.
Harry fucking finally relents when he burrows down between her thighs after shucking off his dress shirt and he uses two fingers to split her open to reveal what her puffy folds had been hiding.
âYouâre going to make me come without even touching me,â Harry abdomishes as he stares at her, âHow do you have the prettiest face, nipples, and cunt? It doesnât make any sense, darling.â
YN felt like she was a rubber band about to snap, she couldnât take anymore and she just needed him to do something because her orgasm has been building for the last half-hour.
âPlease,â YN whispers quietly, it was pathetic and desperate but she let out a shutter from her sniffles - sheâs never felt this good.
Harry pushes himself up to kiss her lips once before settling back down where he splits her folds open and gives her a firm, harsh lick from her core to clit.
His mouth stays there, pulling her clit between his lips and massaging it with his tongue while two of his thick fingers danced around her entrance before slowly tucking them up inside and curling forward.
YN came instantly, she swore she blacked out for a moment and saw stars but also felt a rush of fluid that she couldnât figure out what is was until she finally comes back down to earth.
When YN sits up, she notices a small dark part of the comforter that was wet along with Harryâs face shining with slick.
âOh my god,â YN gasps in horror as she realizes she not only just had her first orgasm from someone else but squirted on top of that.
Harry blinks up at her, he was just as surprised as he brought his hand back up where it was wet with her, âIâm not joking when I say thatâs the hottest fucking thing Iâve ever seen in my life.â
And just like that, the humiliation is gone from her body and sheâs giggling because he just looks so thrilled with himself.
She squeals excitedly when he pushes her back down and continues on, burying his face back between her legs.
When he licks at her sensitive, throbbing clit again - her legs kick out in reaction as pinpricks of overstimulation try to push Harry off.
But YNâs hand is wrapping up in his hair and keeping him down there.
She never had more than one orgasm at time, didnât really know that she could, and she was shocked when she felt her next one building within a minute or two.
âHarry, Iâm close again,â YN warns as her thighs begin to shake, she so badly wanted to close them around Harryâs head but his broad shoulders are prohibiting her from doing that.
âCome on, sweet girl,â Harry encourages in between suckles and laps, moving up to nip at the hood of clit to give her a spike of dull pain before soothing it with his tongue, âShow me how good you can be.â
Oh, she does.
YNâs back arches and she doesnât care about being embarrassed anymore when she lets out a long, high-pitched whine, a sound sheâs never made before as her chest heaves when her second orgasm comes barreling over her.
âBaby, sâgood,â YN mewls, uncaring when the pet name slips even though Harryâs been using them constantly, and when sheâs starting to come down from the second one, she gently leads Harry by the hair until heâs crawling up over her and their lips are meeting again.
YNâs not worried about being shy anymore, not after Harry just made her come like that, and so when sheâs running her hand down his chest, tracing over the muscles of his stomach, she doesnât stop until sheâs palming him in his dress pants.
âShit,â He gruffs in surprise, breaking their kiss for a moment, and moaning when she traces the outline of his cock where itâs ready to be freed from his confines.
YN manages to wriggle until Harry gets the picture and rolls off of her, onto his back where now heâs splayed out with his stomach sucking in, his ribs dancing against his skin on every breath in.
Heâs body was incredible, the definition of his muscles from his pecs to his abdominals, all the way down to where thereâs a sharp cut leading into the dress pants.
She had to get her mouth on him and had to give him a bit of the same treatment he gave her, she figured out quickly that he loved being bit and given lovebites.
YN works her way from his neck down his chest, stopping to give attention to his nipples which he was surprisingly reactive to - bucking his hips up when she dragged her teeth along them.
When she finally gets to the fine dusting of hair leading into his pants, YN unbuttons and zips them before beginning to tug them down his narrow hip.
At first, she was going to tease him but her eagerness to see him and so sheâs peeling down his briefs too until heâs bare to her too - god, he was just as perfect here as well which shouldnât be a surprise.
His cock was far bigger than anyone man she had even been with, by far, but it wasnât initimating to her because she so desperately wanted it inside her.
It was thick and she never thought sheâd describe a dick as pretty but it was, the pink tip was wet and his skins was smooth velvet as she ran her hand down the length of it.
There was a reason he had big dick energy.
And YN puffs out a breath of frustration when Harry pulls her back up right before she puts her mouth on him, he chuckles at her furrowed brow like a disgruntled puppy.
âStop pouting,â Harry smooths out the wrinkle between her eyebrows, âIâm so hard for you, pet. Iâll come if you tease me and I want to get in you. I want to show you how good I can be for you.â
YN doesnât regret it when she leans down and bits his shoulder, making him hiss before sheâs grumps, âYou teased me for nearly an hour and I canât even touch you. Sânot fair.â
âOh, Iâm so sorry,â Harry pouts out his bottom lip condescendingly, âI promise there will be many more times to come where Iâll let you do whatever you want to me.â
âYou better keep that promise,â YN warns but sheâs about as intimidating as a baby deer.
Harry lets out a throaty laugh as he tucks a strand of hair behind her ear, âItâs not a hardship for me to promise you that you can have my cock whenever you want.â
He was filthy and YN was obsessed with it.
âNow need you to shush up,â Harry rumbles as he steadies YN where sheâs sat across his thighs and sits up, scooting backwards until his back is against the headboard, âGonna have you sit that pretty pussy on me. Gonna let you go as slow or fast as you want. Okay, baby?â
YN nods with a bit of nerves back in her as she straightens up and kneels further up until heâs bumping against her folds, she goes to reach to position him but Harry knocks her hand out of the way.
Harry presses forward until the plum tip of him parts her lips, finding her swollen clit and tapping himself against her which sends voltage shocks through her spine.
He paints himself down to her core, where he barely pushes in, YNâs stomach tense in anticipation before heâs moving back up to rub himself against her nerves.
She was so wet that there was soft noise as he teased, âBaby, do you hear how wet you are for me? Canât believe how good you feel. Do you always get like this?â
YN shakes her head, swallowing dryly before telling him, âNever really got wet like this before. I, er, usually wasnât enough other times and so they had to use lube.â
Harryâs expression is downright offended, âNobody ever warmed you up, huh? Sounds like youâve been with a bunch of chauvinistic pigs. Iâll always have you dripping down your thighs, pet.â
And she believes him.
YNâs still in a dazed state of his teasing when he doesnât just push in a little but starts helping her sit down on him to finally get inside of her and god, she feels so full.
Thereâs no pain or stretch like sheâs felt before with guys who were less endowed then him but he had gotten her so turned on and ready that there wasnât anything but pure pleasure as he bottomed out .
Heâs already nudging against an a livewired spot inside of her that she never felt before but knew was her g-spot, and his was just pressing on it by just being inside her.
âO-oh,â YN lets out a wanton moan as she begins grinding her hips, on every swivel her clit was bumping against the neatly trimmed hair on his pubic bone and the spot inside her being triggered by how thick and hard he was.
âThatâs it, baby,â Harry sighs happily and heâs looking up at her with such awe before heâs pushing at the small of her back to get her upper body closer to his.
As she chases her own release, heâs kissing all over her, and it intimate as sheâs ever been with someone as Harry just encourages her to make herself feel good with his body.
His lips are on her sternum, her belly, her shoulder, her face.
There was something about the way he kissed over her cheeks and jaw as she moans in pure ecstasy that made it romantic and made her feel closeness to her partner that sheâd never felt before.
The soft whispers of encouragement against her temple as she got closer and closer to the edge, her thigh muscles were tired, âPlease, H. Need you to make me feel good, please.â
And like that, Harryâs flipping them until YNâs splayed on her back once again, and heâs over top of her, his cross necklace tickling at her chest when props himself up on his elbows, either side of her head, and grinds his hips back into her.
YN canât help but wrap her legs around Harryâs waist as he begins a steady rhythm of thrusts, leaning down to connect their lips together but YN canât focus on it as she moans into his mouth.
âI need you to come fâme,â Harry pants lightly between pecks, his thrusts were becoming harder and he wasnât pulling back as fast, âYouâve got me close, darling. Never had anyone feel so good on my cock.â
Harry doesnât wait though, heâs going down on one arm to use his other to snake between their bodies to rub tight, purposeful circles on her bud until YN feels the band of tension snap and sheâs digging her nails into his back as she comes for the third time.
And as soon as she does, Harryâs thrusting in twice more before stilling and letting out the sexiest, most filthy moan as he drops his head and letâs go, his moans were so low that YN didnât even think his voice could get that deep and gravely like heâd been smoking.
YNâs become boneless, melting into the comfortable mattress, as she keeps her eyes shut - peaceful to feel the pinpricks of pain from overstimulation and how achey her thighs were from not usually using those muscles as much as she did tonight.
âOpen your eyes fâme,â Harry murmurs softly after a moment, his thumb coming to sweep the drying tears off her cheeks and when YN whines in protest, he coos, âJust for a tick, darling. Look at me.â
YN blinks her eyes open, sheâs exhausted and spent, and doesnât feel like she could move if someone offered her a million dollars to do so as she meets Harryâs warm green eyes.
âI need to get you showered. Mânot going to let you fall asleep all sticky and sweaty,â Harry titters as he begins to get off the bed, taking YN with him despite her weak whines of protest.
He coerces into his shower and YN was so tired that she couldnât even appreciate that the shower head was on the ceiling and the water fell down like a rainforest storm.
YN stays leaned up against Harry, her head resting on his chest as he goes about lathering and massaging the shampoo into her hair with strong, magic fingers.
âThank you,â YN mumbles after he washes out all the suds and moves onto scrubbing down her body, âI can clean myself.â
Harry stops where the washcloth is on her shoulder, âDo you not want me to do it?â
YN blinks rapidly again, coming back into focus, she dindât want to offend him and she did want him too, âI do, itâs nice. I love it actually, I just donât want you to feel like you have to do all of this because we had sex.â
Harry frowns at her, âHave you never heard of aftercare?â
âI have I just thought that was for like crazy bondage or something.â
He chuckles with a shake of his head, âIt is definitely important for people to do that but itâs also important anytime thereâs intense sex. Iâm not doing this because I feel obligated before we just slept together. I want to continue to take care of you, not just in the way of sex but because youâre important to me.â
âDo you do this with every girl?â YN asks out loud and maybe it wasnât an appropriate question but she wasnât going to judge if he said âyesâ, it was pure curiosity.
Harry eyes dart to the side, his expression turning into a bit of guilt like heâs remembering other times, âNo. Iâve never been great about it and some of the times I probably should have but just left. IâŠI canât tell you enough how different you are than the rest.â
YNâs giggles when Harryâs resumes washing down her body, making her stomach as he wipes her underarms, âIt was the best sex Iâve ever had. I look forward to having a lot more of it with you.â
He perks up with a cute hopeful expression, âYeah? IâŠDo you think you would want to be exclusive with me?â
âAs in we just date each other?â YN has to tease him a bit because of how he did the same to her earlier in the night.
Harry looks embarassed, âI wasnât trying to -. If you donât wan-â
âIâm just fucking with you. A little payback for earlier,â YN chuckles but Harry nips at her jaw meanly which makes her squeak, âOf course, I want that with you.â
âI promise Iâll be so good to you in every way,â Harry tells her sincerely as he washes the soapy residue from her body, âAll make sure youâre taken care of. You can look forward much more sex in the future.â
â€ïžnine years later â€ïž
âMâheart, what are you doin-â Harry tries to question but heâs cut off by a harsh kiss as heâs being pushed backwards into a empty bathroom of a fancy museum where an event was being held in his honor.
YNâs breaks the kiss for only a moment to lock the door before her hands are going to his belt to start quickly undoing it as her lips nip and sucks at his jaw, leaving lipstick prints in their wake.
âWhatâs gotten into you?â Harry hums as he helps her unbutton his trousers, he was hard from the moment he realized he was being dragged into the loo for a quickie and so when she untucks his dress shirt his pants, heâs plump and ready for her.
âThe speech,â Is all YN utters before she has his briefs down to mid-thigh and sheâs kneeling down in front of him, carefully in her designer dress to grip him firmly at the base and not hesitate to take him all the way down which sheâs adores the surprised moan that comes from his chest without his permission.
The speech.
Harry had just been honored for the fifth year in the row with The United Kingdomâs Humanitarian of the Year Award because he had donated upwards a billion dollars to different charities and organizations, as well as having three successful charities of his own - one being in honor of Willow and her adoption.
He had gotten up on stage and began with the basic speech of what it means to donate and support causes all over the world, how the success of his business had led him to be this charitable, and how he encourages other billionaires to follow in his footsteps.
Then Harry went on to get a bit emotional when he thanks his wife and all three of his babies for making him a more charitable person, how he wouldnât be anywhere without the love and support of YN, what a wonderful wife and mother she is, and how much he loves his three daughters.
Seeing Harry be such an amazing husband and father never failed to get YN wet for him.
It never went away after the first time that they shared a bed, that craving for Harry that made her stomach begin to churn with fiery arousal and lust for him.
She never failed to have her clenching her thighs together when Harry teased her, even just the little bit, and yes, itâs because theyâre still wildly attracted to each other.
But she also thinks that itâs because they are so fucking in love with each other and she swears her undying love for him grows more everyday even if she thought that she couldnât love him more.
And she knows Harry feels the same way.
From their first time, Harryâs promise had always stood, he never ever faltered to take care of her ever - he was always by her side during the good and bad times, he loved her so deeply that it couldnât be put in to words.
Harry always made her feel like enough, she never worried about leggy models or not fitting the image that most expected because Harry never gave her a moment to doubt it.
After nine years, he was still trying to get in her pants anytime she would let him - he could be dominant and assertive which turned her on to no end but she also fucking loved it when he was pliant and let her boss him around.
âThe speech, huh?â Harry repeats but he nearly chokes on the last syllable when her nose brushes into the hair of his pubic bone before sheâs pulling back to take a deep breath, âDarling, your mouth is so pretty around my cock.â
YN is truly Harryâs match. Harry loves to tease. It never stopped after the first date, he loved to build anticipation by edging, and YN realized it was just as much fun to return the favor.
They really donât have time for it right now because Harryâs the man of the night and all eyes are on him but right now, heâs nowhere to be found after his thank you speech.
Sheâs has a firm grip on his base as she suckles at tip, doe eyes blinking up at him as she seems in no rush to move things along, pulling back to run her tongue on the underside of him.
âSweetheart, we donât have time for this,â Harry warns but heâs struggling to keep his eyes open because even just the small kitten licks feel like heaven and just to keep him on his toes, sheâs occasionally taking him all the way down, âCan drool over my cock when we get home. We have the house to ourselves tonight.â
And when YN ignores him, Harry knows what she wants, and it makes a sharp thrill pump through his veins, he reaches down and knots his hand in her hair and tugs, âI said enough. Are you that cock hungry?â
YN begins to pick up her pace which is a telltale sign that the dirty talk is working, and that she doesnât want him to stop, so he doesnât, adding in that same raspy tone, âYou are so fuckinâ spoiled. Canât stand anyone else given me attention, got to pull me into a bathroom and get me to fuck you.â
âI didnât say anything about you fucking me,â YN bites back because now sheâs in full brat mode but sheâs still standing back up when Harry gives her hair another tug.
âNo? So if I put my hand under your dress you wonât be dripping down your thighs?â Harry coos but his hand is already hiking up the skirt of her dress and the moment his fingers brush over the front of her mound, he can feel how damp she is, âSâcute that after all this time you get soaked for me like the first time I fucked you.â
YN mewls when he tugs her panties to the side to tuck two fingers up, Harryâs trying to get her to beg, he loved turning the tables when she came in bossy but left a crybaby.
He pets right at her spot and he can feel her tense, a telltale sign that she was going to come soon, and so he pulls out his fingers to suck them in between his own lips, âI wish I had enough time to lick in to you. I guess youâll just have to make do with my cock.â
âCome on, now please, baby,â YN grumbles as he lifts her up to put her bum on the sink counter, pushing the dress up around her hips, and pinning the underwear to the side.
âTell me you love me and Iâll fuck you, mâheart,â Harry hums as he pumps himself, he was so ready for her, and he rests the tip right at where sheâs hot for him - his hips twitched in anticipation.
âI love you so much,â YN whines but itâs sincere, leaning up to kiss him before adding, âThe best husband and father of my babies I could ask for. I just want you, H. Want you all the time.â
Harry melts a little at her sweet words, the dominance in his voice fading as he pushes in, moving to cup her jaw, and he brushes his nose against hers - far too intimate for this setting.
âI couldnât love anymore than I love you,â He whispers against her lips, âI fuckinâ live for you. Everyday I wake up and wonder what the fuck I did to deserve you. I want you now and for forever, youâre mine, the love of my life.â
And YN thinks back to when she was nervous, shaking like a leaf in front of the same man because she was so intimidated by him - sheâs now married to him and has three children with, how she didnât think she was worthy.
To know having that same man smattering kisses over her cheeks and nose to make her giggle while he cleans her up in a tiny bathroom after having a quickie that they really shouldnât have because heâs the man of the night.
She knew she picked right.

Académie Le Tour Dormie Pool
I received a comment on my LFT Dormie Pool post asking about pools for the other two universities, so have some Académie Le Tour dormies!
All 50 ALT dormies, ready to be added to your dormie-less ALT!
I gave everybody a cellphone and any information the wiki had on them such as LTWs and Interests if they had them. Names will be randomized when you add the pool but you can change them with simpe back to their originals.
Secret Society members have the appropriate token, but I once again did not test to see if they actually are really members whoops. Also, I again may or may not have fixed Houstonâs broken face.
Keep in mind theyâre pictured here with my default skin and eyes.
Now I must tell you the potential bad news... đł I made two blunders, one incredibly minor and the other slightly larger. The minor blunder is that Zion Cormier actually accidentally has blonde eyebrows instead of black. He didn't extract with his blue hair and when I gave it to him in CAS his eyebrows changed blonde and I unfortunately didn't notice. Easily changeable.
The larger blunder is that I was dumb and made the empty subhood before I extracted the dormies from original ALT and I forgot to re-disable the university neighborhood templates after so 12 character files of professors generated and I didn't realize until I was almost finished townifying đ« But I created numerous test hoods and I've found that the 12 professor character files don't get added if UALT is added as the second university. Example if you add any other university and then add "AcadĂ©mie Le Tour Dormie Pool" you don't get them. If you add ONLY "AcadĂ©mie Le Tour Dormie Pool" you do. I'm so sorry! đ« But if you wind up with 12 professors, I guess you're free to keep, kill etc them but I didn't want to touch them myself.
Anyways,
To use the dormie pool, place the UALT folder into either
C: > Program Files (x86) > Origin Games > The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection > University Life > TSData > Res > NeighborhoodTemplate
or C: > Program Files (x86) > EA Games > The Sims 2 > The Sims 2 University > TSData > Res > NeighborhoodTemplate
or if you have your game installed somewhere else, so long as it winds up in the neighborhood template folder of your university EP.
After that, add it like a normal university. After you add it, you can delete it (provided itâs not the only unversity) and the dormies will stay.
As with anything, and especially due to my mistake, I recommend adding to a test throwaway hood before adding to hoods you care about. Donât forget backups! đI warned you! đ
Download Académie Le Tour Dormie Pool on Patreon (FREE)
But please consider becoming a patron if you like what I do so I know! đ

I forgot to ask, will you be offended if I cancel and rejoin your paid membership? Like, for example you haven't update for a month or I'm simply not reading for a month, will you hate me for that? If I only pay when I want to read it...? I just searched on the internet and yes, a patreon creator can block a paid member and they won't get their money back (someone got scammed on reddit). I hope I don't sound too petty. I know it's not much for others, but in my currency, it's quite an expense if paid monthly. I would love to support fanfic writers I like because I do appriciate their writing; I just don't have a job at the moment and don't have a credit card. I would love to pay patreon once I have an income đ„Č and normally I should probably wait longer, but lately I'm getting impatient with wanting to read patreon exclusive contents. It's my only escape from this world đ I'm sorry for talking too much, I'm just trying to explain that I'm not underage and not a NEET, I am looking for a job currently.
Hiiiiii, I won't be offended at all, i understand if you only want to join just to read specific chapters. After all it's your money and at this crazy economy anything is valid. You can join and cancel as many times as you want, i won't mind at all, so please don't worry abt it! I totally understand you, as a person who has two jobs to survive, pay rent, bills and college fees, i know how difficult it is bc everything is money these days. But i want to remind you all that your feedback and comments are very important to me and others writers. It makes me happy to read your opinions, really.
Also, answering your other questions, my last post on Patreon was 3 days ago, and before that i posted the advanced part of the Namjoon fic. And you sent me another ask abt how my Patreon works. I post some parts in advance, which I'll eventually post on my tumblr, but i also post exclusive second parts that can only be read on Patreon, either way i explain which case is in an A/N.
Anyway, thank you so much for your support! And don't worry abt anything. Any kind of support, feedback, or even just a reblog will mean a lot to me! One thing that i love about writing is when people enjoy what i write for them!
#asks#asks open#yall don't need to worry abt anything#just the fact that you enjoy my writing means a lot to me

[Its just me ramblin about the new chapter you dont have to post this or even read this... this got longer than intended]
'Fuck'
Thats what I said out loud when I read the scene with dear mom cause damn even I was flabbergasted. Like I read the random crumbs from Patreon readers so I thought I could handle it but... I could not.
Honestly, if it was me, I dont think I could handle a conversation with her after the prison break, I would probs be balling my eyes out behind my friends, my buddies, my homies [I wanted to read the friendship scenes] cause that was one hell of a talk I would not willingly be in. Like she only thought about fixing the relationship when she saw you in Ishari. AND she brought her kid with her!!! How could you do that??!?! You didnt speak to your kid for 20 YEARS and you thought it was the best time to introduce each other.
It may sound weird but I also never thought Ahlf was a bad dad. He just seemed like a regular asian dad to me. Emotionally constipated, but at least still tries to push thru the constipation you know. Doesn't really succeed but he broke out a sweat. A+ for effort.
My god, Salyra... How was it possible to never even mention your kid in 20 years? I couldnt even shut up about my dog to some random strangers. And it wasn't even my dog, it was my neighbours! The best shih tzu you could ask for honestly. So glad 7 year old me took shitty photos of her that ended up being developed by accident and till this day is still stored in my family photo album.
I dont think I would be able to sit thru the meeting with Salyra there lmao, I probs would bring Crown in as my emotional support animal. Maybe he can give Salyra a good hard glare for making MC go thru this shit.
I wonder how our family in Vinia would take the information? Damn, author you really made me go thru so much in one chapter. You really did a great job writing. I'm sorry for this long ass post, I forgot it's 1 Feb and didn't prepare myself emotionally.
I shall read and answer this because I do love rambling myself đđ
I really do love complicated parents in fiction and I really wanted people to realise that not everything is quite clear cut, especially since for many, Ahlf was the somewhat worse of the parents considering his reluctance in becoming a father.
Salyra definitely made mistakes and in a way, she might be a little too hopeful for a huge happy reunion with the MC. She isn't quite aware of what the NC went through, so all she sees is just an older version of the 5 year old child she left behind đ
You definitely will get to see the Vinia family react to Salyra by Part 3 đ They'll all be feeling some sort of way, mostly the MC's uncle because Salyra's decision to remain in Ishari routine really hit him hard đ
Thank you for the long post!

Why did you private Strange Days and your other fics on A03?
Hi Anon,
I forgot to make a post here but life got away from me.
I set my entire AO3 private due AI bots scraping AO3 and AO3âs troubling stance on allowing AI fic to be posted to the archive.
I am vehemently anti-AI, especially AI which seeks to aid the pursuit of making creatives absent from the act of creating, rather than being in aid of the creative. Rn AI is incredibly unregulated and stands to do more harm than good in creative sectors, and will be incredibly harmful in spreading misinformation by bad faith actors.
I know AO3 is doing its best to prevent further scraping but I do not like that they are permitting AI fic to be hosted. All AI work is plagiarism- itâs not derivative/culture jamming/remixing. Because in derivative works the reader is made aware of the source material/derivative works are predicated on the viewer understanding/having knowledge of the original source so that the resulting derivative work makes sense. AI doesnât do that, itâs a text generator made up of millions of words crafted by others, stolen without their consent. Itâs plagiarism through and through.
I have seen people get banned from AO3 for even a the slightest whiff of plagiarism. Their moderators and content team are great to work with as you actually are dealing with a human in investigating the plagiarism case. Rather than like lets say YT that just uses bots to do their content strike downs often getting ppl who are using copywrite content correctly under creative commons/fair use guidelines. Cases are thoroughly explored on a case by case basis to make sure that works are being protected from plagiarism.
So itâs disheartening to see AO3, allow AI stories to be hosted- AI are not fans, they are not people. The people behind them arenât creating fan or original works on their own merit, not spending time working on the craft to create. Theyâre just mashing prompts to scrape from others to generate something they think they can quickly sell. Which brings me to another point- ao3 is opening itself to getting sued by corporations who are anti fanworks. Ao3 has been able to hold them off because the understanding is that on AO3, creators are not profiting from their fanworks
(linking to patreons, ko-fis, does not count as AO3 is not the one getting a cut of money from creators hosting their fic, so companies cant sue AO3, theyâll have to go after individuals, and rn itâs hard to go after creators as theyâre likely not making a lot of money on volume compared to merch sellers on etsy, etc.)
So to protect my stories in the meantime Iâve locked my stories to users only and hidden my stories from search engines.
It hurts me to make my stories difficult for people to find and enjoy, but this is the only way right now to protect my stories from getting scraped. I like hearing from people either new to fandoms discovering my fics or long time readers returning to them, and by locking them I am aware that I am potentially risking my ficsâ reach within fandom, but I am an old school fanfic writer, I donât do this for clout or fandom attention. I write because a part of my heart was touched by a series and I want to engage with the series by essentially playing dolls with the characters to act out the scenarios Iâve come up with. If someone comes along and reads it, and comments on it, I am so very happy and fed.
I appreciate you, my readers, for all of your support all of these years. I am sorry to throw a barrier in front of you to access my stories, but I do want to protect the stories Iâve spent years on.
Even though the series arenât mine and I donât profit from them, these fics represent thousands of hours of brainstorming, screaming about them with my betas, theyâre creative outlets written to help me survive my worst days and to grow as an artists. My efforts and my creativity are worth protecting, and so I will take whatever steps possible to do so.
Thanks for reaching out, Anon. And I hope you understand. Be well.

Nobody Ends Up Dead In a Bathtub, Everyone Keeps Their Organs: Chapter 20
Summary: Alex is an ordinary, highly-introverted office worker. He clocks in and out and goes home to his little apartment he shares with his younger sister. He hasnât dated in years by the time his co-workers set him up on a blind date.
The only issue is he and his date are not on the same page. At all.
While Alex thinks itâs a normal date, DamiĂĄn is under the impression Alex is a client who paid to be there. No-so-quickly, they realize something is up. Itâs all a prank. DamiĂĄn is a sex worker Alexâs co-workers hired as a sick joke.
After reassuring that theyâre both okay, Alex decides he wants revenge for both him and DamiĂĄn. The plan is to use the stigma of sex work and start a 6-week, scandalous fake dating scheme with a big finale at the office Halloween party. Alexâs co-workers will be too horrified to try to prank him again. At least, thatâs the plan.
You can also read this on AO3. If you donât want to wait for new chapters, the complete story is on Patreon for only $4 with bonus stories! If youâre enjoying the story and want to support me in other ways, consider dropping me a message in my inbox or reblogging this post!
The following Monday, Alex was wasting time in the staff room with Martin. He poured himself a cup of coffee from the stained, slightly-leaky pot that nearly burned Alex every time he tipped it over for a mediocre, burnt serving of poorly-roasted grounds. They were a very successful business that raked in a lot of money every year. They should have been able to update some of their appliances. It was just one of his many gripes that he forgot about once his paycheck came through.
âThen Sam actually found that coffee in Target this weekend and was like shit. Itâs supposed to be sold out everywhere at these bougie shopsâand itâs just in stock at Target? She bought three bags before anyone else noticed.â
Alex didnât mention that coffee had an expiration date. Even if it wasnât pre-ground, if it was still the beans, coffee didnât stay good forever. How long would it take them to go three bags? Surely, not quickly enough.
âSo, did she make the tiramisu? Was it everything TikTok promised it would be?â Alex asked.
âShe hasnât made it yet. She wanted to save it for guests. Anyway, this is us asking if you and Marcus want to join us Thursday for the Tiramisu debut. Kris and Clara will be there.â
âIâll have to check if Marcus is free, but I think weâd both be down if we can make it.â
Alex was pleased to get another invitation. He could start looking forward to regular after-work hangouts to get him through the week.
He would have to cough up more money for DamiĂĄn to go with him, but he was willing to do it for another night with DamiĂĄn. He would give a yearâs wages to DamiĂĄn if it meant he was getting to spend so much time with him. Maybe heâd keep hiring him after the party. Or maybe that would be weird.
You down for another night with Martin and Sam this Thursday?
Hold on let me send you some nudes.
Alex waited for whatever was coming, knowing full well he was not going to get a lewd picture of DamiĂĄn. At least he hoped not. Sometimes DamiĂĄn struggled with knowing that people worked at 1 pm on Mondays.
But even then, DamiĂĄn wouldnât send nude pictures of himself to Alex of all people. They werenât actually dating.
A couple of seconds later, a professional picture of a bowl of ramen was sent through. Nudes. Noods. Noodles. Alex got it. He didnât laugh.
Can we get ramen for dinner tonight? I just found this new place, and it looks so good.
Of course! Can you answer my question about Thursday?
I would 100% be down to see them again, but I have a client :( Let me know if they want to do any other night, Iâm free a few nights this week.
Once he and DamiĂĄn went their separate ways, Alex hoped that and Martin could keep up some type of friendshipâthat he wasnât only valuable to Martin and Sam because he was part of a couple.
âSorry.â Alex spoke while typing out his reply to DamiĂĄn. In hindsight, it was a bad idea. He should have put all of his focus on either conversation. âDamiĂĄn has to work.â
âDamiĂĄn?â
Alex looked up. Martin was throwing him a confused smile.
Shit.
His face went numb.
âUh.â Alex didnât know how to correct himself. It was too late. âMarcus. Marcus has to work.â
âYou said DamiĂĄn,â Martin said. He laughed a little. âIs Marcus his work name? Thatâs okay. I get it.â
âDo you?â
âYeah! When he hired him, we assumed he wasnât giving out his real name. But you kept calling him Marcus, and I started to think you guys just werenât comfortable with anyone knowing his real name yet. I wonât tell anyone, though. Iâll play along with you guys.â
Alex was going to suffocate in that little staff room. âYeah?â
âYeah! And honestly, Alex, I know Sam and I got off on the wrong foot with you guys, but we promise weâre trying to do better. And Kris and Clara are already cool. You guys would be safe using his real name in front of usâif heâs comfortable with it.â
âOkay.â
âThereâs no reason to pretend like heâs working when heâs not. If itâs just usâI mean, if you trust all of us, and I know that might be hardâyou guys can relax. You donât have to pretend.â
Alex stared at Martin. Fuck. The downside to making new friends was that he felt bad about lying to them.
Martin had grown so much in just a matter of weeks. He had become so aware of boundaries even when no one told him about them. It was incredible how just a couple of interactions with DamiĂĄn and getting away from Andrew had completely changed him.
âWeâre not actually dating.â
Alex didnât mean to say it. There was immediate regret when he saw Martinâs face change from soft acceptance to furrowed confusion.
âWhat?â
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Alex was in too deep now. It was spiraling. He was going to die right there in that office.
âWhat do you mean youâre not dating?â Martin asked. âYou and MarcusâDamiĂĄn? Youâre not dating?â
âNo.â
âThen why have you been saying youâre dating?â Martin laughed, but it was awkward and nervous. âSam and I literally introduced to you our friends as a couple.â
âItâs complicated.â
âComplicated as in âweâre not doing as well as we thought we would, and now we canât define it?â Or âwe never really wanted a label on it?â Or is it complicated as in âweâve been lying?ââ
Alex squeezed the handle of his coffee mug. His knuckles burned against the ceramic. âComplicated as in âweâve been lying.ââ
Martin stared at him for a second.
âWhat the fuck?â he whispered. âWhy would you lie about that?â
âOkay, hold on, youâre the one who set us up in the first place as a prankââ
âAnd Iâve apologized, and Iâve been working really hard to make up for it. I invited you to my fucking home.â
âCan I explain?â
âYes. Please. Quickly.â
Alex set down his mug. His hands were so sweaty and shaky, he might have dropped it and gotten shitty coffee all over the already-stained linoleum.
He should have been consulting DamiĂĄn before he went any further, but he was in so deep he just wanted to explain himself before Martin hated him forever.
âThe night DamiĂĄn and I met, we decided that we would pretend to be dating for real until the office party at the end of the month,â Alex said. âLike, as revenge. We thought it would disgust you three, so we wanted to mess with you. When you apologized, we thought weâd keep up the whole thing to make it more believable. I think it just went further than we thought it would.â
âChrist, Alex,â Martin said. âThatâs evil.â
âIs it?â Alex had a sort of manic momentum. âDo you know how DamiĂĄn and I felt the night of your prank? Do you know how scary it is for a sex worker to find out he made advances on a man who had no idea he was a sex worker?â
Martin looked to the side. He mumbled, âNo.â
âIt was cruel,â Alex said, quietly. âTo me and DamiĂĄn. We were just planning on a little revenge and then putting the whole thing behind us after this month.â
Martin shoved his hands into his pocket. He didnât look at Alex. âIâm sorry. But you didnât have to accept our invitations to dinner and to our apartment. You could have said no. Everyone sees you and DamiĂĄn leaving the office together every week. That would have been enough.â
âWe could have, but Iâthis sounds so stupidâafter a week, I wanted to spend more time with DamiĂĄn. Thatâs why I kept saying yes. It wasnât totally manipulative.â
âAnd you couldnât have just told him you want to be his friend? You had to create a whole Fake Dating Universe and pull me and my wife and our friends into it?â
âI couldnât have just told him.â
âWhy not? He obviously likes spending time with you. Why else would he play Trivial Pursuit for three hours?â
âProbably because Iâm paying him for all of this.â
âWhoa. Stop.â Martin crossed his arms. âYou hired him for three hours of a board game? How much are you paying him?â
âI think Iâm up to $625. Thatâs for the two dates with you and Sam and the party date. Plus a planning fee.â
âWhat?â Martin leaned in closer and lowered his voice. âHe charged us $550 for one night. How are you paying barely more than that for three nights?â
âYou paid $550?â Alex slapped his hand over his mouth when he shouted it. âFor one night?â
He vaguely remembered DamiĂĄn telling him his regular charge was $250 per hour, but it had sort of been filed away to the back of his brain. They had spent so much time together, surely Alex should have been up in the thousands.
âHeâs a pricey escort,â Martin said. âNot the priciest. God knows we found people who charged insane rates. But he said it was $250 for the dinner alone. After that, the other $300 was for theâyou know. What would have been sex. We put a lot of thought into our budget. And, might I add, we didnât want to hire just anyone. We wanted to give you a nice experience.â
âThank you?â
âHave you been unaware this entire time that heâs, like, a really good, in-demand escort? Heâs not charging you his usual rates for a reason,â Martin said. âHe likes you. Heâs going easy on you.â
âHe might just feel bad for me. This is all probably a pity discount.â
âThereâs no such thing as a pity discount. I really think he likes you. Kris and Clara were going on and on about how sweet he is to you. So, heâs either the worldâs best escort and needs to start charging way more, or he does genuinely like youâand at risk of sounding like a middle schooler, I mean he likes you.â
Being liked by DamiĂĄn was so much worse than what Alex thought it would feel like. It was something he had secretly wanted, but now that it was a real possibility, Alex could only think how horrifying it was. If DamiĂĄn really did like him, then Alex no longer had an excuse for not pursuing anything. Feelings were mutual. Alex might no longer have to be single, alone, the state he found painful solace in.
âGood news for me, I guess, is that you guys were shit at lying to us,â Martin said. âI donât think I feel so hurt knowing you two actually fell for each other.â
Martin was still angry. He deserved to be. But Alex didnât want him reverting back to the person he was only a week agoâblindly following Andrew and Stu, a little malice tucked away in his heart.
âIâm sorry,â Alex said. âCan we still keep this all between us?â
âYeah. Whatever. I wonât tell anyone.â
Martin took his coffee and walked past Alex, out of the break room.
The worst part of it all was the text Alex immediately sent to DamiĂĄn.
DamiĂĄn, I accidentally let Martin know that weâve been lying, and I accidentally told him your real name. Iâm really sorry. I donât know how I let it slip, and now his feelings are hurt. Iâm really, really sorry.
Alex walked back to his desk, set down his coffee, stared staring blankly at e-mails. DamiĂĄn didnât reply for a while, but Alex could see three dots periodically appearing and reappearing on the bottom of his screen. There was nothing he could do but wait. He refused to start typing out a self-deprecating apology. It would only make things worse. Besides, he was paralyzed with fear.
What if DamiĂĄn hated him? What if it was a huge violation of his privacyâand it wasâthat would get Alex blacklisted, and DamiĂĄn would drop him as a client? And a friend.
He sat frozen at his desk for an hour trying to convince himself he hadnât lost both of his new friends to the same fuck up.
Finally, a text came through.
Iâll see you later, and we can talk about it then.
Okay. Not terrible. It wasnât the worst thing DamiĂĄn could have said.
DamiĂĄn sent him an address a minute later.
Meet me at my apartment.
Okay. Iâll see you then. Iâm really sorry
Alex had to go through the rest of his day alone. DamiĂĄn didnât text him anymore. Martin steered clear of him. It was what he was used to, at least.
He pretended to work and pretended like he wasnât spiraling. The day ended, and he gathered his jacket and his bag, and he followed the address on numb legs to an apartment complex not all that far from his office.
DamiĂĄn answered his door with a frown, arms wrapped firmly across his chest.
âI would have liked a little heads up before you did any of that,â he said.
âIâm sorry,â Alex said.
DamiĂĄn turned around and led him inside the apartment. Walking out of the entrance hallway, Alex hid his shock at how nice of a place it was. Not that he had assumed DamiĂĄn was living in a bad place. Just that he had assumed that his own apartment was pretty average for a single man in his 30sâtiny, cramped, one windowâand that DamiĂĄn must have been living in a similar setup.
But DamiĂĄnâs apartment was spacious. Alex believed that Martin and the others paid over $550 for a single night. There was no other way DamiĂ n would be able to afford such a place on his own. It momentarily distracted Alex from the vague feeling of wanting to vomit.
DamiĂĄn had a living room that could actually hold a sizable couch, a coffee table, and a chair. It wasnât too close to his kitchen which had a table. A table! Alex had never had a kitchen table of his own.
And on that table was a brown paper bag of takeout. DamiĂĄn dug into it and pulled out two plastic bowls. He held one to his chest.
âTell me why you did it and then you get your ramen,â DamiĂĄn said.
âI didnât mean to,â Alex said. âI really didnât. I slipped with your name, he was understanding, and then after that, the rest just. Spilled out of my mouth. I couldnât stop it. I felt guilty about lying to him.â
DamiĂĄn didnât relax his hold on the ramen. âIs he going to tell anyone else my name?â
âNo. He promised he wouldnât.â
âHe isnât going to go back to pranks now that he knows weâve been deceiving him?â
âI donât think so?â
DamiĂĄn held the bowl out. Alex accepted it, knowing full well he didnât deserve it.
âIâm sorry,â he repeated.
âItâs fine, I guess.â DamiĂĄn sat down and pulled out his own bowl and two packets of wooden chopsticks. âYou didnât mean to. Accidents happen.â Â
âYou donât have to forgive me.â
DamiĂĄn looked up and smiled with half of his mouth. âBut I will. You didnât mean to. Iâd rather you hadnât revealed my identity to a man I just met, but I think itâll be fine.â
âHe wonât do anything harsh.â
âWe better hope not.â
Alex tucked his hands between his knees. DamiĂĄn cracked open his lid. Steam rolled up and covered DamiĂĄnâs face.
âI donât have time to properly scold you, anyway,â DamiĂĄn said. âI have a client tonight.â
âI thought you didnât take clients on Mondays.â
âWell.â DamiĂĄn scooped noodles onto his chopsticks. âI usually donât, but Iâm setting money aside for Leoâs tuition next year.â
Alex never offered to help Eve with tuition. But then again, they had parents and DamiĂĄn and Leo didnât seem to be totally in touch with theirs. Or if they were, it must have not been a situation where Leo could ask for help. But regardless, it made Alex feel like an inferior brother.
âCan I try to make it up to you?â Alex asked.
DamiĂĄn sighed. His face relaxed. âItâs really not a big deal. It was an accident. Martin doesnât strike me as the type to try to ruin someoneâs life over this, either. Whatâs the worst heâll do? Tell his wife?â
âIt would make me feel better if you let me at least try to make it up.â
DamiĂĄn always had such a soft, tender look about him. He set his chopsticks down on the edge of his plastic bowl and linked his fingers, setting his chin on top of them.
âWhat do you want to do?â he asked.
âAnything you want from me.â
DamiĂĄn pulled his hands apart and laid one across the table, palm up. Alex unclasped his own, brought them up from between his knees, raised one above the table, and finally laid it, shaking, in DamiĂĄnâs. It was the first time they had held hands since the first night they met, when DamiĂĄn led him down the hallways of the hotel.
Alexâs face was hot. Little tremors shook his whole body.
âIf you insist on making it up to me,â DamiĂĄn said, âyou can let me take you out somewhere thatâs not just cheap dinner or ice cream.â
Alex liked their cheap dinners and their single ice cream trip. They were so ordinary, so easily fit into his normal routine, that it had made DamiĂĄn feel like a solid part of his life. He had settled into Alexâs days so easily, like he had always been there.
DamiĂĄn folded his fingers over Alexâs hand. They were warm and soft. Alexâs were still chilled from the outside.
âIf you let me take you out for a night, Iâll forgive you,â DamiĂĄn said. âNot a hired appointment or anything. Me genuinely taking you out.â
A date. That was what DamiĂĄn was asking for. A date. A date!
The little bit of residual trauma from last month let itself be known, and Alex immediately felt a rush of panic. What if it was another prank? What if it was all going to be fake in the end?
But he remembered what Martin said, and he thought about all the days he and DamiĂĄn had already had together.
âWhen do you want to go out?â Alex asked.
DamiĂĄn pulled his hand away. Alex missed it immediately. His palm felt cold, and his fingers wanted to curl back around something.
DamiĂĄn scrolled through his phone calendar.
âOkay. Friday. My stupid client canceled Friday because he felt bad about cheating on his wife. Is Friday good?â
Alex ignored the cheating comment. âMy parents are visiting Friday, but theyâll be gone by the evening. Theyâre taking Eve back home with them for the weekend.â
DamiĂĄnâs eyes were bright. âPerfect. Friday it is! Have you ever been to Dorothyâs? The club?â
âNo.â
Alex hadnât been to any clubs before. They werenât really his scene. People who went to clubs were sexier and had better wardrobes and liked being in big crowds. Alex was more of a stay at home with Netflix and Twitter type of guy. Though, he had to admit the promise of going out with DamiĂĄn made him willing to try something new.
âItâs a gay club,â DamiĂĄn said. âItâs one of the best on this side of the city, I swear. Best drag queens, best DJs, best drinks.â
âOh. Okay.â
DamiĂĄn tilted his head. âHave you been to a gay club at all?â
Alexâs chest tightened. He had been to so few queer places in his life. He had taken Eve to pride events, of course, but never a place like a club. There were so many queer spaces that were noisy and crowdedâand that was great! Alex loved that queer people got to take up spaces and be loud and get to exist with such force and strength. It was great. It was lovely. Alex was so proud that he got to be part of a community that, after trauma and tragedy, still went out to party in large masses.
But he still didnât like clubs.
âNo.â
âWant to try one out?â
âUh.â
âYou donât have to.â
âNo! I will!â
He might have fun after all. Alex trusted DamiĂĄn. He trusted him a lot. And it would probably do him good to hang out in a queer space. He needed a little more socializing, he had realized, after micro-dosing a social life with DamiĂĄn.
âOkay,â DamiĂĄn said, nodding. âAnd whenever you want to leave, we can. But I promise you youâll have fun. Dorothyâs is a good space. If we go early, itâll be chill. There wonât be any huge crowds.â
âCan I ask a few questions?â
âOf course!â
âWhat do you do at a gay club?â
âWe chill. Watch other people dance. Get drinks. If we stay late enough, we can watch a drag show.â
Alex had always wanted to see a drag show live.
âWhat do you wear?â he asked.
âWhat do I wear? Iâll probably wear a crop top. I just bought a new one, and I havenât had a chance to wear it yet. You can wear whatever youâre comfortable in. But fair warning, nightclubs get hot. So, donât wear a sweater or anything like that.â
âCan I wear a t-shirt?â
âYeah! Perfect.â DamiĂĄn took Alexâs hand again and squeezed tight. âThis is so exciting! Iâve never taken anyone to their first gay club before.â
Alex would have never expected to be excited to go to a club, but he was. He was wildly excited at the idea of being around other queer peopleâso many queer people. And a drag show! Every second that passed, he was getting more excited about seeing a queen perform live.
âIâll ease you into the whole scene,â DamiĂĄn said.
And best of all, Alex would be spending the whole evening with DamiĂĄn. Martin was right. He and DamiĂĄn had totally fallen for each other.

Mid-Summer 2024 Update
Happy early Kadayawan, everyone! Hope you guys had a nice summer (if the heat doesn't get to you first). I got a lot of updates to share in the coming months. So let's go with the recent ones first.
As you can tell, Artificial Fantasy and Twin Minds are in emergency hiatus (again). I'm really sorry for that. But I've been doing a lot this month on another story as part of my writing challenge. (Yes, not Camp NaNoWriMo this time. I'm still stung with the whole scandal thing. Don't ask.) Both stories will resume in a couple of months as I need to work on the backlog to get back in the swing of things. Also, Kadayawan and Davao Pop Culture Mania is coming up this month, so I may be a bit slow with updates than usual. Don't worry, I didn't forget Hayate, Kazuki, and Vander's adventures, so sit tight! I've been in a zone for this challenge and I can't wait to show it to you guys.
And that brings into the second news for today. ARTIFICIAL FANTASY IS GOING TO HAVE A SPIN-OFF STORY!!!
Yes, I already got two stories in Royal Road, but that doesn't stop me from working on other stuff in the mix. In case you guys missed the new release this week (thank god, I didn't forget), I'll be releasing a new story on Royal Road set during the events of the third arc of Artificial Fantasy. It's called [Virtual Lycan: An Artificial Fantasy Playthrough] and it will be focused on a new set of characters. So far, most of the drafts for the first arc are done. That's all I can say for the new story. I will be posting a separate blog post about it soon. So if you haven't check out the Author's Note in there, make sure to check it out on Tumblr later.
Third, I almost forgot about the Dreamwidth site. It's been sitting there for month and I think it's time to get them dusted. I will be working on oneshots during my free time. So keep an eye out on the full launch of my Dreamwidth site soon!
Lastly, I want to talk about the future.
I mostly work as an independent writer for years now. I want to keep writing stories for you guys to enjoy. Currently, I have Patreon to serve as a place for you guys to keep supporting my works with advanced chapters of my stories and bonus content. However, I want to expand my horizons than simply writing everyday to fill in the backlogs (and yes, I'm still working on them as of this writing) and posting them after. So I'm considering getting back on streaming on Twitch from time to time, only this time, catered to not only random games, but also virtual write-ins and writathons on my stories with a few sneak-peeks on upcoming chapters and a bit of a chatting and worldbuilding stream. Honestly, I could have stream immediately with only 4thewords and Google Doc onscreen. But with my potato PC and issues with OBS Studios at the moment, it's easier said than done.
That said, I'm opening up possibilities while balancing my writing schedule. I promise, I won't overwork myself. But it's only an experiment to see if I can handle it.
Regardless, it's a long road ahead of the new story release. I hope I'm ready for the long haul with my stories old and new.
With that said, thank you so much for your support in reading Artificial Fantasy and Twin Minds. Again, I have a Patreon. So if you want more chapters, you can join as an Adventurer, Sign Creator, or Demi-Fiend for a variety of rewards waiting for you!
And most importantly, thank you so much for following my writing journey. It means so much and I hope I can write more stories for you and myself.
See you next time!

Reparations (Dean Winchester)
Summary: Dean forgets something important and has to find a way to make it up to you.

PLEASE DO NOT REPOST OR REDISTRIBUTE MY WORK IN ANY FORM ON ANY SITE. 18+ CONTENT BELOW THE CUT (MINORS DNI)
Dean threw his duffel bag on the bed unceremoniously, ignoring Samâs chatter as he stomped to the bathroom. Once in there, he splashed some water on his face, leaning on the edge of the grimy sink and staring into the slightly blurry mirror as the liquid dripped off of his jaw. It had been a long drive, and he wasnât all that happy to be spending the entire week away from you. Youâd been gracious about it, like you were with every case that came along, choosing to remain at the bunker as you werenât, and didnât want to be, a hunter. Mostly, you kept to the sidelines, occasionally drawing a devilâs trap or researching if required but the hands-on work was left to the boys. You existed in their lives as Deanâs girlfriend, his comfort, the small slice of normality in his weird existence, and Samâs best friend, as well as someone to keep the home fires burning while they were off saving people and hunting things.
Popping his head through the open bathroom door, Sam appeared in the mirrorâs reflection and Dean straightened as he saw him, grabbing for a towel to dry his face.Â
"Dude. You okay?"
"Yeah,â Dean grunted, patting the towel against his throat. âJust wanna get this hunt over with and get home."
"You seem a little -" At his brotherâs warning look, Sam shut up, clearing his throat and motioning to the papers heâd gathered on the table. "Nevermind. Wanna go through what we got, nail our vics down?"Â The older Winchester nodded as he tossed the towel across the sink and stepped out of the small bathroom. "So, weâve got six victims. All male, all in their thirties, all missing livers, kidneys -"Â
Dean interrupted, squinting at the date on the local broadsheet. "Is this todayâs paper?"
Sam glanced at it and nodded. "Yeah, why?"
Groaning, Dean slumped down onto the end of one bed, scrubbing a hand over his face. "I knew she was being off."
"Who?" Sam asked, his brow furrowing in confusion.
"Y/N." Dean dropped his head into his palms, shaking it lightly. "She was acting funny. Like, she didnât mind us going away, but she was dropping hints and Iâm such a freaking idiot, I completely messed up!"
"Dean, I literally have no idea what youâre talking about."
"Itâs her birthday,â Dean sighed, resting his hands onto his knees as he squared his shoulders. âAnd I forgot. Worst boyfriend ever. I canât do anything right."
"Why donât you call her?" Sam slung an arm over the back of his chair, twisting slightly to watch his brother get to his feet and begin a slow pace around the room. Dean growled in frustration.
"And say what? âHey honey, sorry I forgot your birthday. Iâll bring you home some entrails!â. I canât make this up to her, Sammy! I forgot her frigginâ birthday!"
"To be fair, you guys have only been dating, what? Six months? And youâre not great with dates."
"That doesnât excuse it," Dean grunted, slumping down onto the edge of the bed again. "I donât know what I can do to make it up to her."Â
The room descended into silence, and Sam chewed his lip thoughtfully as he looked back over the papers. Dean picked at his nails, and his brother knew that internally, Dean would be punishing himself for a long, long time for this. But Sam knew that with the right apology, youâd forget it. After all, you loved Dean. There wasnât anything you wouldnât do for him, and you knew more than most how forgetful the elder Winchester could be when he was stressed.
"Look, weâve got a week. How about we get the case done, and then we plan something thatâll make Y/N completely forget that you forgot her birthday?"Â
Dean looked up at Sam, chewing the inside of his cheek, slowly nodding along though his brother could see the cogs turning in his head. âYou know⊠I think I got an idea.â
Usually, you parked your little compact outside the bunker, but today it was raining heavily and you didnât really anticipate any thrill in a dash to the door without getting wet, plus you had several bags of groceries that you did not want to juggle through puddles. Parking in the garage was the obvious option, though it took a hot second to remember the code for the door.
The lights were already on as you pulled in, which wasnât anything unusual, and as you parked up, your phone buzzed in your pocket. It was a text from Dean that made you smile as you read it, even though it was only a simple âb back soon xâ.
Okay, so maybe another person would be irritated by the fact that he had forgotten their birthday, though heâd realized it soon after he left for the hunt and had promised to make it up to you in a somewhat steamy phone call made from a gas station two hundred miles away. You didnât know what he had in mind but you supposed youâd find out soon, and you had to admit, youâd really missed him after nearly a week alone in the huge cavernous building of theirs.
It was easy for you to forgive his slight forgetfulness or the fact that he couldnât get his socks in the laundry bin. Dean was a hero - Sam too - and you respected that their lives werenât like other folks. Youâd seen the blood and gore, the fallout from bad hunts, and you took pride that you were the sliver of normality that kept at least Dean going. Stress levels were unusually high with their almost-thankless line of work; you werenât about to stress him out even more because heâd missed a fairly insignificant day that came around every year.
Locking the car, you struggled up the steps with your arms full of groceries, shouldering the door open and leaving the lights on for when the Winchesters returned. Your first stop was the kitchen but as you headed down the corridor and into the library, you noticed the lights were all on, which was not how youâd left them. You frowned, hearing the soft hum of music floating through the halls.
Concern had you depositing the groceries on the library table, and you quickly located the pistol hidden in a fake book on one of the shelves, checking it for bullets and finding it full. You knew how to handle a weapon, thanks to your grandfather, and Deanâs more recent coaching, but that didnât stop nerves settling in your belly as you followed the sound of the music out of the library.
The music became clearer as you got closer and closer, discovering the source was the kitchen, and the song was something old that you didnât know the name of. It struck you as odd that someone would break in and play classic rock while they⊠cooked? You sniffed, picking up hints of garlic and tomato in the air.
âYou say itâs urgent, so urgent,â came a familiar and slightly off-key voice. âSo oh, oh, urgent, just wait and see -â
His voice grew muffled and your curiosity couldnât be held in check any longer. You slid into the kitchen doorway, taking note of the candles everywhere, the table set up with a ratty old check cloth and cutlery. Lowering the gun, your gaze moved to Deanâs pert ass where he was bending over the stove, humming along with the song as he tasted whatever he was cooking.
âPerfect.â
âDean?â
He spun on the spot, bright green eyes wide as he saw you in the doorway, and it was only his quick reflexes that stopped the tray in his hands from flying out of his grasp. âY/N! I wasnât expecting you back just yet.â
Strolling forward, you carefully place the gun on the countertop with a sheepish grin. âI wasnât expecting you back at all,â you commented with a smile, taking in the tight blue button down that outlined his frame, hugging him in all the right places. âWhat is all this?â
Dean grinned, placing the tray on top of the stove. âHappy birthday,â he said, gesturing to the ready-to-serve spaghetti on the stove.
Your smile widened. âYou didnât have to make me dinner, Dean.â
âI wanted to,â he insisted, shrugging lightly. âI felt really crappy about missing your birthday.âÂ
You approached, stopping just in front of him to reach up and touch his face, pushing up on tiptoes to kiss him softly. âYouâre a big ball of goo,â you teased, lowering yourself slowly. âI feel under-dressed.â
âYou look perfect,â he promised, leaning in to kiss you again. âNow, why donât you take a seat while I serve? Thereâs something on the table for you.â
Curiosity peaked, you let him swat you away playfully, moving towards the table to take a seat. At the spot you assumed was reserved for you was a box, wrapped delicately in sparkly wrapping paper. âWhat is it?â you asked, glancing over to where he was plating up the food. It smelled good, good enough that your mouth began to water, and you suddenly remembered the groceries. âOh, shoot, I left the groceries in the library -â You started to move but Dean shook his head.
âIâll get it. You open your present.â
He darted off and you frowned, before shrugging and tearing at the paper, revealing a familiar white box underneath. Your frown deepened at the labeling, trying to imagine Dean being anywhere near a Build-A-Bear store, struggling to picture him lining up among giggling children, smirking at the amusing image. As you got the box open, he returned with the groceries, quickly moving to put them away.
âOh my god,â you whispered, gaze landing on the fluffy little tan bear in the box, neatly dressed in a black t-shirt, jeans, and a plaid flannel. âOh, god, Dean! Itâs so fluffy, Iâm gonna die!â
Dean chuckled as he shoved a box of donuts to the back of the refrigerator. âI figured if I had to go away for another week, youâll have someone to keep you company.â
âThatâs so lame and adorable,â you giggled, hauling the bear from the box. âYou made a bear of you.â You hugged the tiny Dean-bear close, feeling a slight sting of happy tears in the corners of your eyes. âI canât believe you went to a Build-A-Bear.â
âAnything for you,â he threw out, accompanying it with a corny smile. âI even picked up a bottle of your favorite wine.â
âMade Sam go with ya, huh?â
âNot my fault you donât like whiskey.â
You laughed again, still hugging the bear as he served dinner. When he approached the table with the loaded plates, you removed the box and settled the bear on the unused part of the cloth, resting him against the condiment basket.
âOkay, we have spaghetti bolognese with cheddar, not parmesan, because -â
âReal cheese, please,â you giggled.
Dean grinned, placing your plate in front of you and you inhaled deeply. âThereâs pie for dessert,â he added, sliding onto his stool.
âIt smells wonderful,â you moaned, picking up your fork.
âWine?â Dean offered, grabbing the chilled bottle from the bucket beside him. You smiled and nodded, waiting for him to pour a generous amount into your glass. âSamâs gonna come back tomorrow. He figured we could use some alone time.â
âYou really pulled out all the stops, huh?â
âWell,â he drawled, pouring his own glass of wine, âto tell you the truth, I was terrified Iâd get back here and youâd be gone. I mean,â he cleared his throat, avoiding your gaze nervously, âI wouldnât have blamed you.â
âIt was a birthday,â you dismissed softly. âI have one every year. And I wouldnât walk away over something like that.â
âAnd on some level, I knew that, but I also felt like a dick anyway.â
You scooped up some spaghetti onto your fork, taking a bite and moaning. âOh, god, this is good. Did you put bacon in it?â
âHell, yeah,â he laughed. âIâm glad you like it. I wanted to do something special to make up for it. And I thought that a meal would be nice. Me and Sam talked about it and he suggested a nice restaurant and all that, but I remembered that you donât like public food places much because you donât like eating in public. And you donât like doing that whole..." He waved a hand dismissively. "Outside social things. Which Iâm cool with. Not a fan of it either." You smiled again, taking another bite as he kept talking. "So, I decided that a night with just you and me, your favorite meal, some nice wine, maybe a movie..."
"Itâs perfect," you whispered, smiling at him, looking down at your meal bashfully. No one, let alone Dean, had ever done anything so sweet for you. "Thank you."
He blushed and ducked his head. "Well, eat up before it gets cold." A panicked expression crossed his face as the music changed to Guns-N-Roses and he looked up to the stereo, then back to you. "Do you want me to change the music? This is an old mix tape that might end up with some Metallica on it."
"No. I like this song. Besides, whoever said rock wasnât romantic has clearly never heard Bad Company."Â
Dean smirked and the both of you fell into a comfortable silence as you ate, the soft tones of rock drifting through the bunker to accompany the meal, and you wondered how on earth youâd gotten so lucky.
"I enjoyed that," Dean said, stretching dramatically as you remained curled into his side on the large bed. The TV was rolling the credits for the movie youâd just watched, and to be honest, youâd been so comfy and sated and full of delicious food and wine, that you hadnât paid attention to most of it. You knew it had been about some kind of spy ring and there was a famous guy in it but you couldnât remember his name. Either way, just being curled up and dozy on Deanâs chest was wonderful, and you were about ready to fall asleep.Â
"You okay?" he asked, nudging you gently; you nodded, making a contented noise in your throat as you snuggled closer to him. Dean chuckled, his hand coming up to brush down the side of your face, the touch of his skin on yours leaving a tingling in its wake.
"Tonight was really perfect, Dean, I mean it."Â
Your words were quiet but sincere, and he smiled softly. Of course you were worried - Dean had a natural tendency to think what he had done wasnât enough, and you were keen to reassure him that right now, at this moment, you couldnât be any happier. "No oneâs ever done anything soâŠnice for me."
"Well, I guess romance ainât dead after all,â he drawled, smirking at you in the cocky way only he could manage. Drawn in, you craned your neck, kissing him softly, smiling against his mouth when he intensified the caress. His arm came up around you, fingers toying with the strap of your bra. "At least weâre already in the bedroom, huh sweetheart?"Â
"That is definitely a good thing," you replied, pushing him onto his back. He opened his mouth to protest, but you shushed him with your index finger and slung one leg over him to straddle his hips. "Uh-uh. You did the dinner, and the movie, and made up for my birthday. Now, itâs time for me to say thank you."
Deanâs face split into a filthy smirk, and he raised one eyebrow. "Oh yeah? And how are you planning to do that, Y/N?"Â
You grinned right back at him, your fingers deftly undoing the buttons on his shirt, flinging it open with a bit of dramatic flare. "Hold still, and youâll find out." You leaned down, pressing a swift, closed mouth kiss to his lips before you darted your tongue out, licking a path down over his chin, feeling the rough stubble underneath your touch. Dean groaned, his arousal making itself known where you straddled him, his hips thrusting up towards you, pressing against your already hot center. You paused in your action, looking up at him with a reprimanded glare. "I said hold still."Â
He chuckled, and you felt his Adamâs apple bob against your cheek. In response to his laughter, you nipped at his neck with blunt teeth, making him hiss, smiling up at him mischievously when you moved your attention to his left nipple. Sticking out your tongue once more, you swirled your tongue around it, sucking lightly at the skin. Little moans came from his mouth at the sensation of your mouth on his sensitive skin, and you reached up with your hand, tweaking his right nipple gently as you laved attention on the left.
"Fuck..." Dean cursed, his body trembling with the effort it took not to flip you over and take control. He hated being the bottom but for once, you were taking charge. Luckily, you didnât do this all the time - Dean Winchester was a man who knew what he wanted and knew how to give you what you wanted, so most of the time he took the lead. Right at that moment, you were in control, and you were going to make him whimper like he did to you.Â
You abandoned his nipples, sucking and nipping a trail down over his stomach. He flinched a little as you dipped your tongue into his belly button, and you smiled against his skin, knowing he was at least a little ticklish there. With shaking fingers, you unbuttoned his pants, pulling them down to expose the very top of his pelvic area, eyeing the delicious v-line that sloped down into the depths of the denim. Placing a soft kiss to the skin there made him groan loudly, and you pulled his pants down further, allowing his cock the room to spring free. As you sat back, pulling his pants all the way down, leaving him only wearing his unbuttoned shirt, you surveyed him like youâd earlier salivated over his cooking.
Dean was covered in scars. Bullet wounds, knife marks, scratch marks - there wasnât much of him that didnât have evidence of the life heâd led, but it didnât take away from the sheer beauty of him; if anything, it added to his gorgeousness. Without thinking, you reached out and trailed a finger over his thigh, where a long scar stretched from his knee almost up into his groin. That was the mark of a Wendigo - you remembered sewing him up, shortly after youâd met him.
As if he realized what you were doing, Dean propped himself up onto his elbows, looking down at the scar. "Yeah. That was a bad one. You did a good job with the stitches though." He caught your wrist with his. "Whatâs wrong?" You looked up, meeting his green eyes with a smile.
"Just realized something." He waited for the answer and your eyes felt the sting of tears. "You did all this for my birthday, when all I want, all I ever want," you leaned forward, "is for you to come home safe and in one piece." His face became serious for a moment and you crawled over him, pressing your lips to his. "I love you, Dean Winchester."Â
He pulled you closer without missing a beat, kissing you furiously for a few seconds before pulling away panting. âI need you,â he whispered, sliding one hand down to your hip before suddenly flipping you onto your back.
Your shirt came off, along with his, and you quickly found yourself disrobed of your pants, unable to think straight as he peppered kisses on any patch of skin that was revealed to him, finally returning to your mouth when he finally had you nude underneath him. His cock prodded your entrance impatiently, and Dean thrust his hips gently, leaning on his elbows to look down at you.Â
"As much as I would love to have you continue with whatever you were building to, I need to be inside you right now."Â
âUh-huh,â you managed, sucking in a breath as Dean pulled back a touch to guide himself into you, watching your expression dissolve as he filled you inch by inch.
It was urgent and desperate love making, unlike how you usually went about it. Maybe it was the time apart, which seemed to be increasing lately, or the wistful remarks. The thought of you losing him and him losing you was one that forever plagued the both of you but here, now, moving with him, feeling him pushing you to the edge, his grunts echoing in your ear as his fingers gripped your hips with a bruising intensity, you felt like this would last forever.
"Dean -" you gasped, as your climax surged through you, your head falling backwards as his hands moved from your hips round to hold your lower back. Shifting, he pulled you up until you were straddling his lap, his strong arms holding you fast as you swam through the bliss heâd instilled in you, thrusting harder and harder until your ass was slapping against his thighs with an audible echo. He was kneeling now, holding you like a ragdoll as you tried to control yourself, clinging to his shoulders desperately and crying out at each stroke.Â
When youâd regained your senses, you found his lips again, thrusting your tongue against his as you started to push up with your calves, riding him as hard as he was fucking you. The room was awash with the scent of sex, the sounds of your skin meeting, both of you drenched in sweat as you felt the slight burn of the friction between you. But the pain was fleeting, and all that came back to you was the feeling of him splitting you apart, down the middle, his urgency spilling over into you. The need to feel some sort of life before it was too late.
"Baby, Iâm gonna cum," Dean groaned, clutching at you desperately. You nodded, gasping for breath, and unable to respond verbally as you started to come undone again. His cock swelled and pulsed and with an almost primal sounding roar, he spilled himself into you, holding you tightly as he finished, bringing you along with him.
You remained locked together, your legs straddling his, his cock remaining stubbornly hard in the wake of his orgasm, the thickness still filling you. His hands stroked your back lovingly as yours clasped his face, kissing him softly. There was no need to speak. Both of you knew where you were, and there wasnât any need to clarify it. Without any sound, Dean lifted you away, before gathering you back into his arms as he lay on the bed. The TV was playing ads for Netflix as he pulled the sheets over you both.
Laying there in his arms, you smiled, feeling safe, content and loved. Maybe heâd never say it, but as heâd pointed out, romance definitely wasnât dead.

More Assistant AU
I posted this back in November on my Patreon and forgot to crosspost it here three days after the initial. So, like, consider Patreon? If you wanna. Itâs, like, $1.
Anyway, enough of that.
More AU
-- -- --
Izuku watches the prospective students take their tests along with the teachers. It's a written exam before the practical, ensuring the students meet the minimum educational requirements to become students.
Nezu's very familiar with student practices, so he only watches with half of his attention. Instead, he's more interested in Izuku, who looks at the students, but the instant All Might so much as shifts, Izuku's eyes are on him, quickly looking over his body before returning to the screens. At one point though, Izuku opens the big yellow backpack he brought with him and pulls out a small pillow. When All Might leans forward a bit to look at a screen closer, Izuku deftly slips it behind him, barely making a sound. When All Might settles back, he startles just the slightest bit and shifts before relaxing into the seat more comfortably. He stops moving as much afterwards, no longer hiding discomfort.
Nezu wouldn't have noticed that, he thinks. He's attentive, yes, but it's as though Izuku has memorized All Might's habits and needs to a T. He's also the reason that All Might's health has improved. The large rat hums, pleased, as he sips some tea, turning his attention back to the screens. He's eager to see Izuku's improvements and how he helps All Might improve as well.
As he looks at the screen, he notices a strange movement by one of the students. He watches them do it twice more, and he realizes what it is. The proctor likely hasn't noticed it because the student is using a quirk. The other teachers reviewing the various videos also haven't mentioned anything. A sly child, yes, but Nezu's fairly aware of this process and human behavior. He's about to turn on the microphone when hears Izuku move.
The boy leans toward All Might and tugs on his suit just a bit. The man turns his attention to him and leans down.
"Uhm...is it just me? I think that student is a bit odd..."
Nezu watches as All Might's gaze turns toward the very screen he'd been watching, and his darkened eyes narrow.
"...It's not just you, Young Midoriya. Good call."
Aaah, of course the Number #1 hero would notice. As ham-fisted as his efforts and quirk could be, All Might was no idiot.
All Might turns, reading to call for Nezu's attention, only for him to smile back in return. The hero realizes he'd already known and seems to relax, as though he should've known he'd already been aware. All Might gives a nod to his assistant, and the two go back to looking at other screens.
Izuku noticed things quickly, but did not always have context to it, evidence of his inexperience. All Might was not completely aware of new things, but he caught on quickly. Those two...yes, they are certainly a dangerous combination.
Nezu smiles, then he turns on a microphone to the room the cheating student is in and speaks softly to the proctor. While they will not kick the student out, the student will not be proceeding to the practical. After all, it is best to prevent an outburst when possible, but they aren't pushovers either.
âââ
Witnessing the way U.A. handled the practical exams did not actually make Izuku think too kindly of the school system. Though, part of his negative outlook was alleviated when he realized the school is being funded by the Hero Association. Still, he can't help but think of it as foolish, which he says so without really thinking too much about it.
"Foolish?"
Izuku gasps and covers his mouth, realizing he said it out loud. Still, the pro heroes that haven't left to the conference room yet look back at him, as does the principal, Nezu.
"Oh, uhm..." He clears his throat and lowers his head a bit. "I'm sorry, please excuse me."
He really shouldn't make such a mistake. He's an assistant to All Might now, after all. His actions and statements are a reflection on All Might, and he should act accordingly. Though, it didn't seem All Might is going to scold him, from the expression on his face when Izuku glances up at him. If anything, he seems curious.
"No worries, no worries. Rather, we don't usually have such a young face observing the process, so I'm rather interested in your perspective. I'd like to hear it in the conference."
"...If you'd like," Izuku replies, fighting down the fear curling in his chest.
He's gotten better at public speaking, but among so many heroes? So many eyes? And he's insulted their processes, too...
He's hoping the incident gets forgotten, but as they have a discussion section in the post-exam grading process, Nezu brings up his mutterings again.
"Now then, I believe Midoriya had something he wanted to say as well?"
He clams up tightly, his lips drawing in as he stiffens on reflex.
Perhaps he's graduated with his GED, but he still has scars from years of bullying. He feels sweat bud at his hairline and his fingers tremble. Anxiety makes him shudder. Even so, he manages to breathe in heavily, slowly letting it out.
Right now, he's not middle schooler Deku, quirkless and useless. He's Midoriya Izuku, a full-time employee and assistant to All Might. He has the social power and influence to speak, and he's been asked to.
So, when he opens his eyes, he covers his nervousness with a veneer of professionalism, the same kind he's adopted when handing his card (not a student card, but an actual, grown-up employee card) to someone. He laces his fingers together in front of his waist and, entirely by accident, becomes rather icy.
"Please take my assertion as if from someone perhaps without the context necessary to make such a statement," he begins coolly, causing some of the pro heroes to blink. "...I couldn't help but think parts of this selection process was foolish."
"What makes you say that?" someone asks, but Izuku's too nervous to look over and see who it was. He assumes it's a male hero judging from the timbre of their voice.
"Well, regarding the written assessment, I have few complaints. While testing can present a good idea of that person's scholarly acumen, I feel like it would be better to test for different traits regarding their personality and wisdom. Standardized testing doesn't really give us a good idea regarding intelligence so much as it helps us understand how well they've memorized what they've learned in class. However, I won't deny that the information they've learned in school can become crucial to their future studies. I just think fewer of the questions should regard these memorization problems and more should test for their acumen."
"What do you mean by 'acumen'?" Thirteen asks.
"Yes. Excuse me if I'm incorrect, but to my understanding, a hero's job falls into one of three categories, including all or simply focusing on one: rescue, evacuation, and battle. Right now, an overwhelming amount of heroes currently focus on battle. However, not enough of them recognize the importance of rescuing or evacuation. And the students seem to be following suit. After all..."
His gaze, already cooled in his attempt to be professional, becomes legitimately sharper.
"One of the applicants today could have gotten crushed by rubble or the Zero-Pointer during the practical if not for proctor intervention."
Indeed, in Sector A, a young girl with a promising anti-gravity quirk had nearly been crushed to death. Present Mic had been watching, attentive the entire time, but the girl still got pinned by rubble from one of the buildings when the Zero-Pointer appeared. Her ankle got stuck, and no one noticed, too focused on fighting robots that gave them points and too eager to fight each other instead of help. The girl had screamed in terror as it approached right as Present Mic shut it off with a button. He'd gone down personally to check on her and lift her spirits, and the girl, bless her, had tearfully perked up, saying she wouldn't let it get her down.
Sector A's testing ended early, though it would still be counted toward their scores and everyone would still be considered for placement. But witnessing such a thing stabbed at the feeling that everyone could not be saved, and it was what fueled his downward spiral of thoughts that eventually forced the word "foolish" out of his mouth.
After all, everyone couldn't be saved, but she was surrounded by heroes for fuck's sake. He's irritated it ever got that close. He's irritated Kacchan ever got that close, all those months back.
"I'm going a bit ahead of myself, but I have the strongest dissatisfaction with the practical exam. I hope to touch on that in order. Speaking of the written exam specifically, because there's such a focus on battles, the written portion could give teachers a better idea of what the current hero climate looks like. You could better evaluate their priorities and consider lesson plans with a broader spectrum of their current mindset in mind."
"Such as?" someone asks.
"Evaluation problems. Asking them what they would do in a certain situation. Figuring out how they get along with others. Essay questions focused on solving hero relational problems rather than memorization problems about math or science. You want heroes who can alter their perspective and actions based on what's in front of them, not just someone who can tell you the third angle of a scalene triangle."
Someone else snorts before covering it with a cough.
"Though, again, most of my issue is with the practical rather than the exam."
"I see, I see," Nezu hums. "Well, as you said, the written exam does need to address whether the student has reached a qualifying level of education to enter high school. However, I do see your point regarding further evaluation questions. I also see its value in information gathering. Now, about the practical?"
"It focused too much on battling," Izuku replies, starting to look a bit tired, like he can't keep his professional mask on for too much longer. "There's plenty of applicable quirks that do not utilize physical strength. Some of the most useful ones don't rely on brute force as a default, like Eraser Head's quirk, Erasure."
This causes some of the heroes to sit up a bit, though Izuku isn't quite sure why.
He isn't aware that most people, even in the hero realm, don't pay much attention to Eraser Head. The fact he hates the press as well keeps him generally out of the public eye. As an undergrounder, he values his privacy and keeping out of the spotlight, so praise is not something that often came his way.
So for someone to use him as the example of one of the "most useful quirks" is surprising to them, even if what he says is true. Of course, Izuku thinks nothing of this. He simply sees Eraser Head for the hero he is.
A few of the heroes in the room glance at Eraser Head, whom Izuku is not aware is actually there, since he is at the corner of the table. The man himself stares with his usual disinterest, though he narrows his eyes at any of the heroes who stare at him a bit too long. They look away amicably, smiling.
"Midnight's quirk also wouldn't be affective against the robots, but she's uncovered several criminal rings before ever needing to use it. She's also able to effectively take them down with few injuries to herself and others."
The woman herself smiles giddily and leans over toward Hound Dog. "I like this kid," she whispers. He nods back proudly as though he'd raised the kid.
"But from an exam like this? It's very possible neither Eraser Head or Midnight would have passed if they were at their level of strength of 15 years ago. They possibly would've been disqualified because they didn't gather enough villain points."
"Indeed, that's very possible," Nezu replied. "However, as you know, we count rescue points as well."
"It's not made obvious to the applicants."
"Of course. We evaluate their innate desire to rescue others based on how they perform during the practical and still give them points due to their drive."
"But that's part of the problem."
"Problem? There isn't one," Nezu lied, simply repeating the words he'd gotten from the Hero Association. It wasn't as though he'd made the same assertion the little Midoriya was, but he'd said something mildly similar. "We need strong heroes on the field to protect the citizens and keep the peace. Our current test allows us to figure out who has the strength necessary on top of their knowledge to help others. If they lack strength, then they simply need to utilize their quirk in a way that allows them to pass."
Izuku huffs then and stands from his seat. His hands smack lightly onto the table as he glares at Nezu, his internal switch turning from professionalism to passion.
"And I'm saying that's part of the problem! Why is the test hiding that you can receive rescue points in the first place when it's one of the three tenants of heroics? Why is there absolutely no focus on evacuation tactics? The girl that almost got crushed today probably wouldn't have required proctor interference if everyone was aware they could help each other!"
All Might gapes a bit at the boy, surprised by his outburst, but he closes his mouth quickly. He starts to think...and he perhaps understands why he is so passionate about this point.
"Asking them to use their quirks in creative ways to defeat robots does little to nothing for those without quirks that manifest in less physical ways or ones that specifically affect people. Moreover, hiding the fact you get rescue points puts excessive emphasis on battle, which the hero system is already having a problem with! Over the last 70 years, policy changes in hero schools across Japan have put more focus on strength-related quirks and decreased a focus on quirks that have alternative applications. I'm aware the policy was specifically due to the recurrent wars against strong villain presence and underground associations. But you can't just overcome adversity with brute power."
Eraser Head hums, speaking lowly.
"Surprised you'd say that, being a fan of Mr. No. 1."
It's an unnecessary jab, truthfully. He's being antagonistic and he's aware of it. Besides, it's not like he disagrees with the kid at all. At that moment though, he let his lingering resentment toward All Might leak out.
Izuku responds quickly, fixing his wide-eyed, passionate gaze on him.
"Look at what relying so much on his power has done to him."
The somewhat jovial, if not tired, mood sours immediately. Izuku continues regardless, bulldozing through the stuttering energy.
"Why is it that so many current heroes can't solve a problem without his interference? Why are there so many strong heroes on the streets who feel they have to sit back and wait for someone with the right kind of strong quirk to solve the problem, even when someone is suffering right in front of them? Despite these policies being in place for several years, things only continued to get worse until he arrived. But for some reason, people took this as a sign that the system was working."
Ahh... As All Might thought.
There was no way Izuku was over what happened to him and his classmate those months back.
Moreover, seeing his current condition now...
"Even now, many of the teachers in U.A. are alumni with all sorts of quirks not related to strength that continue to make Mustafar one of the safest urban cities in Japan despite the crime rates. They would've never become the heroes they are now if this school followed the policies to a T, so seeing this test seem to go along with it this time... Even with that little nugget in the background that you're counting rescue points, that's not enough! Applicants need to know how important rescue and evacuation are to their status as a hero! They need to recognize their strengths and weaknesses and collaborate with others to properly utilize each other's power!
Otherwise, just like today, they'll leave someone suffering on the wayside without even knowing they were there! To see it today! During a test of all things!! And even if they did realize she was there, what would they have done? Would they have chosen to scramble for more villain points instead of saving someone's life? How do we know absolutely no one knew she was there and just ignored her anyway?! And they'll still be accepted into this school, ready to learn how to leave more people to suffer if it means they can punch a few more faces in because that's all there is to being a hero, right?!
Get a few more hits in, pose a few more times, show off! Leave the others to grit their teeth and smile like things are okay while they hurt and wear themselves out until there's little left of them! I know life isn't fair, but does it really have to be this bad?!"
He smacks his hands on the table in frustration, then breathes heavily, catching his breath. Frustrated tears had built up in his eyes, threatening to fall down his cheeks. His nose and cheeks have turned slightly red with passionate anger.
Then, his phone alarm beeps.
It's the instrumental version of one of All Might's Saturday morning animated shows.
Izuku blinks, the tears pushed from their place on his lower lashes.
And just like that, all of the confidence bleeds right out of him, replaced by a pale waif of the boy that had been chastising a room full of heroes. Heroes that he cherished. Heroes that made his insignificant life worth living.
"Ah...uhm..."
Oh... He'd done it.
He'd really done it now.
Stiffly, he sits down and pulls his backpack onto his lap. He opens and digs into it, quickly taking out a small cup with several pills. He places it, along with a thermos, beside All Might, the hero he works for and just humiliated at his new job.
As the feeling sinks through his chest and out his back, creating a deep cavern where his heart had just been, he sits stiffly with a tight smile on his face, pale as a sheet.
"...If it is alright, may I please be excused?"
Seeing his extremely clear discomfort, All Might obliges.
"Of course, young Midoriya."
"Ah, then. Excuse me. Sorry."
He stiffly gets up, scrambling slightly to get out of his seat. The boy almost trips over himself, but stands, straight as a board before bowing.
"I am very sorry."
He scurries over toward the door, but once he's almost in front of Eraser Head, he stops again, bowing to him.
"I'm exceedingly sorry."
He hurries to the exit, but stiffly turns around, facing Nezu, who sat at the head of the table across from the door. He bows again, waist-deep like the ones before.
"My most sincere apologies."
He finally opens the door, and walks out. But before he leaves, he turns around and bows to all the occupants in the room.
"I am exceptionally apologetic for my interruption. Please work in peace."
He then softly, gingerly, closes the door. Then, he flees down the hallway, heading straight for the bathroom to go cry in despair in a place that will disturb the least amount of people.

Yâall wanna read my Apritello story?
So sometimes when my artistic drive is down, the writing bug will come bite me. Iâve been working on an Apritello story for awhile that currently has three chapters that are up on my Patreon. Eventually Iâll post it publicly, but I want my patrons to have early access. Anyway hereâs an excerpt from the first chapter.
Itâs kind of angsty.
The summary is, April invites Donnie to join her for a long weekend at the farmhouse, which sounds romantic until you consider that sheâs been plagued with visions of his accidental death and is desperate to stop it from happening.
To say there was tension in the air was a drastic understatement. Truthfully, things had been tense for a while. Blame it on cabin fever, or perhaps they were outgrowing their sewer lair, but the brothers had been quick to jump down each otherâs throats.Â
Leo was especially on edge, and not unlike how it had been since they were kids, his mood had set the tone for everyone else. One thing that differed from childhood though, was that he had been butting heads with Donnie, while Raph remained a mostly neutral third party.Â
There was the knowledge that they were getting older and they all had desires to get out there and live their own lives, and then the realization that doing so wasnât really possible for them in the world they lived in. They wanted what any young adults would want, but they were mutants. The world still saw them as freaks. They couldnât lead normal lives the way they wanted to. They knew this, they had known this all their lives. They had all been on the same page about it. They realized that living their lives in the sewer, at least most of it, was probably in the cards. April had always contested this idea, believing that the world would accept them in time. Itâs not like people didnât know mutants existed, but the turtles werenât willing to take the risk. Itâs not like they couldnât go out and do things like they always had, but leaving the nest for good just wasnât feasible. And they were content with this. The sewer was all theyâd ever known. Theyâd always been together and they were happy to always be together.Â
But like all families, arguments were inevitable. Familiarity breeds contempt, after all. And they were accustom to bickering. But⊠it was different now. Leo seemed ready to explode at the drop of a pen, Raph never seemed to be able to find enough alone time, Donnie felt like he brought more to the table than the other three combined, and Mikey⊠sweet Mikey was such an incurable optimist that he sought to find the positive in every situation, but they knew he did this to mask his depression. Â
If asked what they were arguing about today, the simple answer would be that they were all just getting on each otherâs nerves. Donnie couldnât even remember how the argument started because they fought about trivial things so frequently, but he remembered the thing that Leo said that set him off.
âGod, why is it so hard for you to just do your part? Why do we have to pick up your slack?â
Donnie was silent for a moment, almost unsure heâd heard correctly. âExcuse me?â
âYou heard me, you never fucking help out with anything!â Leoâs tone implied that there was something else he was upset about that he wasnât speaking of.Â
Donnie, by his best effort, kept his voice calm and composed. âIâm sorry, are you referring to three days ago when I didnât help clean up the disaster in the kitchen because I was literally putting the microwave back together? Or perhaps last week when you left a mess for me to clean up that you all made while I wasnât even here? And then you got mad when I didnât?â
Leo seemed to get more aggravated at the mention of Donnie not being there, but continued on. âCâmon man, there are four of us that live here, itâs really not asking too much for everyone to help clean up around here.âÂ
âDude, I clean up after myself more than anyone. The difference is, when I make a mess, itâs in my lab rather than communal space and-â
âOh, right, I forgot. The huge space you have thatâs yourâs. That none of us have.â Leo turned to their other brothers who sat near by. âHey Raph, other than your tiny bedroom, do you have your own creative space that you can do whatever you want in? Mikey, how about you?â
Raph hadnât spoken, but seemed invested in the exchange his brothers were having. It was impossible to tell whoâs side he was on. Before Mikey could speak, Raph stopped him and said firmly, âLeave us out of this, man.â
âSo now your mad at me⊠because of my lab?â
Leo paused, not making eye contact, before he huffed. âNo.â He admitted quietly.
Normally, Donnie was used to these arguments making little or no sense, but Leo seemed genuinely angry and he couldnât understand why.Â
âBro, what is up?â He demanded. âWhy are you actually so upset?â
âI justâŠâ Leo started. Donnie could tell there was something he didnât want to say. Leo crossed his arms and turned away from his brother. âI just want to know⊠where your priorities are.â
âMy priorities?â Donnie was trying not to lose his patience. He had no idea where this was coming from nor where it was going. Which meant one of two things. Either there was something his brother wasnât telling him, or this was in fact going no where. Like, this had started out a fight about cleaning duties, and now heâs talking about priorities. If Leo did have a point, he wanted him to hurry up and make it because this argument seemed like a waste of time.
âIt justâŠâ Leo blew another huff through his nose. âIt just seems like⊠you are⊠distancing yourself from us, Donnie.â
This statement completely threw Don for a loop. He hadnât expected that at all. âWhat in the world are you talking about?â He asked, truly bewildered by the turn in conversation. âBecause I donât want to clean up messes that arenât mine? Like what the hell-?â
âNo, obviously itâs not that. Itâs alot of things.â Leo spoke quieter now, not as impassioned.Â
âWell, I would love to know what those things are, because I am completely lost here.â
âYou never want to hang out with us anymore, and when you do, you act like youâd rather be doing anything else-â
Donnie cut him off with a humorless chuckle. âWeâre brothers, we all get on each otherâs nerves.âÂ
âAnd I get that, but we do all still live together and we all need to contribute to the household chores, and youâve just been acting like you are so far above doing any type of housework that doesnât directly effect you.â
âWell, excuse me Leo, sorry if when it rains and the power get knocked out and I have to go topside by myself in the cold pouring rain to fix the power line, I donât also want to have to mop up the leak in the kitchen when none of you did anything to help!â
âOkay, you keep bring up specific instances, but Iâm talking about in general-â
âNo, youâre talking alot of nonsense is what youâre doing!â Donnieâs lack of patience was starting to show. âFirst youâre mad that you think I donât clean enough, then youâre mad that I have a lab and you donât? Then you say Iâm distancing myself from you allâŠ?â Donnie stood and made a move like he was going to walk away. âIf you have something to say, Leo, you better just say it because this whole conversation seems like a waste of time to me. Itâs late and Iâm tired, so make your point, or Iâm going to bed.â
âAre you distancing yourself from us because of April?â
Donnie had already started walking away, as he didnât expect Leo to actually have a point, so he was halted to a standstill at his words. âWhat does she have to do with anything?â
Leo looked away again, like he didnât actually want to have this conversation. After a moment, he sighed and continued without making eye contact. âIt just seems like⊠I mean⊠I thought we were all on the same page here. Weâve had this discussion, a long time ago. We arenâtâŠ. Human. Weâre getting older and it makes sense that weâd want to start living our own lives, but⊠we canât. Not really. The world doesnât accept us, so staying down here is just how it has to be. I thought we had agreed on that. That no matter what the world thought of us, no matter that we canât lead normal lives, at least we all had each other. But⊠now it seems like you have other plans, Donnie.â
He finally looked at his brother and Donnie could see the emotions in his eyes. Nothing of what he said had been new information, of course. Donnie knew, painfully well, that the world saw them as freaks and being ânormalâ was not a luxury theyâd ever be able to have. Alot of their friends were at the point where they were starting to branch off, which didnât help. Karai and Shinigami were currently back in Japan. It was just a visit, but the kind of visit that lasted for a month or two. Casey had gotten a hockey scholarship for a different school than the one April attended. He was trying to go pro, so he poured all his time and attention into practicing. He still came around, but not like he used to. Mona Lisa had left Earth awhile ago, also with promise to return, but they hadnât heard from her in a few weeks. They were sure it was just a new mission she had, but that didnât make Raph feel any better. April was the only one who still came around all the time. With most of their enemies gone, everyone was moving on and it felt like the world didnât need them anymore.Â
The pain in Leoâs voice wouldâve normal made Donnie want to hug him, but it was the accusation that he couldnât get over.
âLeoâŠâ He gestured non threateningly with his hands. âWhy are you acting like Iâm not literally living down here in the sewers right along with you? And I still donât see what April has to do with anything-âÂ
âOkay, Iâm going to jump in here.â Raph said unexpectedly. âLook, Dude, I know we donât⊠we donât say it enough but⊠we would be up schitts creek without a paddle without you.â He crossed the room to give Leo a lighthearted punch in the arm. âWouldnât we, Leo?â
ââŠYeah.â
âSo because of that, the idea of you leaving isâŠ. Itâs scary.â Raph admitted. He was going to say something else, but Donnie interrupted.
âIâm not going anywhere! What in the actually hell are you guys talking about?!â
Leo rolled his eyes, apparently getting annoyed again. âDon, can we please stop pretending like youâre not going to marry April and then move in with her?â
Donnie froze. To say they touched a nerve was an understatement. April was his best friend, but truthfully, it was very painful to be her friend sometimes. His feelings for her were still just as intense as ever, but for different reason now. In his youth, heâd maintained a kind of innocent hopefulness that they would someday be together, and he never even really thought of the details of how. He knew, even back then, that it wasnât that simple and when he really thought about it, nothing about it made sense. Which is why he didnât think about it. Now though, after some soul searching and dropping into a deep depression which he was starting to get better from, heâd resigned himself to the reality that she would never be with him. Heâd accepted it, and told himself that it was enough to just be her friend. But the truth was, that pain never went away. They had such a close friendship, they had developed such a level of comfort with each other, but he knew it would never be enough. The idea of never seeing her again was unbearable, but to be so close to her, knowing that it was as close as he would ever get⊠it was torture. He didnât care though, he just couldnât let her go.
What really hurt was when she would talk about the next stage in her life. She was in school now, but with her grades and what she was studying, she could go anywhere. She wanted to travel, she spoke of it often. She never made any committal remarks about moving away, other than when she talked about the farmhouse and saying how expensive it is to live in the city. Her dad had signed the property over to her for tax reasons, and she wouldâve inherited it anyway. She wanted to renovate it.
He was only vaguely aware that Raph and Leo were still talking.
âItâs not like weâre mad at you for finding love, thatâs not it at all!â Raph was saying, obviously more concerned than Leo about ruffling his brotherâs feathers. âItâs just, we need to be realistic about what would happen if you werenât here.â
âYeah, and the reality is, frankly, I think we all feel left behind by our friends, but we didnât think our clan would be breaking up as well!â Leo threw his hands up, finally letting his true feelings out. âI mean, all we have is each other, weâre the last of the Hamato clan! I canât let this clan die, I just canât.â
âWhy do you guys feel the need to do that?âÂ
They stopped, taken aback by how low and serious Donnieâs voice was. He was done barking, he looked ready to bite.Â
âDo what?â
Donnieâs chest felt tight and he had to taken in a sharp breath through his nose to keep his cool. âWhy do you guys feel the need to not only remind me of my unrequited feelings for my⊠our best friend⊠but now, youâre holding it against me?â
Raph looked concerned at first, but then sighed. âDonnie, câmon, donât act like you wouldnât jump at the opportunity to get out of here. April isnât going to stay in New York forever.âÂ
The statement, while probably true, hurt to hear. âWhat does that have to do with me?â He said, quieter this time. âI canât help what April does.â Â
âDude, she is literally planning her future with you in it. Have you not noticed that?â Leo nearly screamed. âYou have the opportunity to get out of here and do something with your life, and weâll be-â
âNo sheâs not!â Donnie shouted back. âAre you guys smoking crack or something? Donât say that shit to me! April doesnâtâŠâ He paused, his words getting caught in his throat. âApril doesnât want me. I thought weâd been over this.â
Mikey, who hadnât yet spoke, immediately picked up on how much pain Donnie was in. âHey guys, letâs just drop it, yeah?â
Leo pressed on as if his youngest brother hadnât spoken. âMaybe she didnât five years ago, but she sure as shit does now.â He didnât seem bothered by Donnie visible cringe. âI mean, dude, youâve spent the night, alone at her house.â
âSo has Mikey. And Raph once, I think.â Donnie said quietly, and Raph nodded in confirmation. âAnd sheâs spent the night here a billion times, that doesnât mean anything.â
âMikey and Raph didnât sleep in her bed.â Leo said accusingly.Â
âI did.â Â
They all paused and turned to the youngest brother. Raph spoke. âYou did?â
âEvery time I go over there, I sleep in her bed.â Mikey said matter-o-factly. âWhenever⊠whenever Iâm sad, she letâs me come over and⊠sheâll listen. She doesnât try to offer solutions, she doesnât try and tell me things to make me feel better, she just⊠listens. And thatâs what helps me the most. Then we watch funny videos.â
None of them commented at first. They all knew Mikey struggled with depression, but he rarely, if ever, talked about it. They all had told him at some point that they were there if he needed to talk, but he never came to any of them. One might of thought that hearing that his brother shared a bed with April might make Donnie jealous, but quite the opposite, it made him very happy and appreciative to hear about it. It made sense that Mikey would be more comfortable talking to April than to any of them, and to know that she had been there for him was comforting. Donnie wanted that for his brother.Â
âSee?â He said finally, more to Leo than anyone else. âApril⊠sheâs there for all of us. She cares about all of us⊠Iâm not special.â
âDonnie, donât say that.â Mikey offered and rose from his seat to place a hand on his brotherâs shoulder. Donnie placed his own hand over Mikeyâs and squeezed it, staring at the floor. âShe cares about you the most. More than you know.â
âMikey, please, please donât.â He said through his teeth. âI canât⊠I canât even believe weâre having this conversation right now. You know how long it took me to accept the fact that I was kidding myself by thinking there could ever be something between us? Of course you guys know, which is why it is so baffling to me that you feel the need to do this.âÂ
âSo if April wanted you to move away with her, you wouldnât do it?âÂ
Raph punched Leo in the arm again. It was a strange thing, to see Raph scold Leo for being insensitive. Donnie had had enough though.
âIâm out of here.â He turned on his heel and heading towards the turnstiles.Â
...............
Yes, itâs NSFW, of course it is.

Male vampire x male character - Part Two (nsfw) (Halloween âsurpriseâ Patreon story).
Edit which Iâm including in all my works after plagiarism and theft has taken place: I do not give my consent for my works to be used, copied, published, or posted anywhere. They are copyrighted and belong to me.
I'm really pleased that you and my Patrons enjoyed the first part, and that folks were keen for more. Iâve had more interaction with this post on Patreon than many of the others, which is surprising given how mlm stories are usually much less in demand than m/f ones. Thanks for that!
Anyway, here's more of our favourite oblivious dork Alec and his obviously-not-a-vampire crush... Part Three is on the way too (tomorrow), despite this having been planned as a quick porn-without-plot one-shot, as it were. Oh well?!
Hope you enjoy.
Part One
After his initial - admittedly strange - meetings with Sebastien, Alec didnât see him on campus at all for the rest of the week, and he wasnât quite sure how he felt about that. Yes, the guy had been a bit of a pompous arsehole in the library, but heâd made up for it by coming to the art room and apologising, engaging him in conversation â even if that conversation had been slightly⊠odd? â and being so god-damn-fucking beautiful too. Â
He overheard his students gossiping about âDr. Dulacâ earlier that afternoon while they all carved the pumpkins heâd bought for them at the local supermarket, and it seemed that the general consensus was that Sebastien was single, unfailingly polite (even in the face of Janette Hilton, the English Departmentâs longest-serving and least sympathetic lecturers), hotter than any celebrity you cared to name, and a specialist in the poets of the First World War like Sassoon and Brooke, among other more esoteric interests. Â
After an hour of clock-watching in his tiny little office in the Art Department on Friday, he abandoned all hope of concentrating on his last few bits of admin, and shut down his laptop. After clearing up yet more pumpkin seeds that heâd somehow missed on the last two sweeps heâd done of the studio, he stepped outside, never wanting to see another bloody thing again. Too bad he had a whole bloody cardboard box of them waiting to go into the boot of Kayâs car for her party that night. Still, he was almost sinfully proud of the carvings heâd done on them. One was decorated the whole way around with the foliate style engravings usually reserved for the steel on antique guns, with different depths to create the highlights and shadows, and another particularly spherical one had been cut away in squares to resemble the Death Star. Â
The October air outside bit into his lungs as he drew a deep breath - the spicy, fragrantly damp scents of autumn filling his nose - and his eye was drawn to the twinkling lights of the little coffee cart that still lingered in the park, selling tea, coffee, and hot chocolate to chilly students leaving the university campus for the night. With a black coffee for himself in one hand, he made his way to the Engineering Department, warily holding another frothy concoction in his other. It was apparently called a âLondon fogâ and it smelled of earl grey tea and lavender. He thought it sounded (and smelled) disgusting, but Kay perked right up when he deposited it on her desk five minutes later. Â
âBless you, Alec Twayblade,â she grinned, taking the plastic lid off and inhaling it like it was the best thing sheâd ever smelled. âOh my god. How can you not like this?â she said after taking a huge gulp and moaning obscenely. Â
Alec didnât bother to reply, his eye-roll speaking volumes anyway. Theyâd had this discussion so many times that they were both probably playing it out silently in their heads right that second. When Kay glanced up and saw that he certainly was, she snorted and grinned. âI love you, Alec,â she laughed. âYouâre still coming tonight?â
âAgainst my better judgement,â he growled, leaning his weight on her desk and folding his arms across his battered, blue cable knit sweater. He had a huge daub of yellow paint on one elbow from that morning, and a small burn hole in the bottom from a failed attempt at pyrography a few years ago. It was the most comfortable jumper he owned, and he would probably wear it until it unravelled around him. Â
âYouâre still not going to wear a costume, are you?â she added as she stood, pouting. Â
He shook his head. âI draw the line at that.â
âBut youâd be so good making one!â she countered. âYou helped me with that bat costume when we were at high school⊠Donât you remember how fucking awesome it was?â
âI do,â he chuckled. âBut Iâm not going to wear one myself.â
She sighed, shoulders slumping. âToo much attention, huh?â she said softly. âWell, you know youâll stand out more if youâre not wearing one tonightâŠ?â
He shrugged. Honestly, he just couldnât be bothered to dress up. Halloween had rather lost its shine for him anyway. âNot if I hide in the kitchen all night and make too-strong cocktails for everyone,â he said, flashing her his most roguish grin. âPlus, I spent much of today carving pumpkins with nattering eighteen year olds who are far too old to be carving pumpkins on academic time, but ââ
ââ youâre an awesome teacher who understands the need to let off some steam on the holidays,â she interjected. âPlus, itâs good practice anyway⊠working with a new mediumâŠâ
He allowed his lips to pinch upwards into a tiny smirk and let her have that one. âItâs nice to see them having fun,â was all he said. Â
An hour or so later, just as he arranged the last of the pumpkins down the garden path of Kay's Victorian semi-detached house, a voice murmured from behind him, âI can see the hand of a master at work in these carvings.â
Not having heard anyone approaching, Alec jumped, cursed, and dropped the pumpkin - thankfully with the candle still unlit. It rolled in a semicircle until a black boot gently stopped it, and a familiar face dipped into view as the owner of the boot bent to pick it up. To his surprise, it was Sebastien, and he was in costume. Probably anyway. Hopefully? Fuck. Alecâs brain stalled at the sight of him. Â
His eyes raked up Sebastienâs body and his jaw went quite literally slack. Â
The slender man was wearing thigh-high boots and leather pants so tight they had to have been spray-painted on, into which was tucked a loose, old-fashioned, white shirt with a good bit of flounce at the collar. âHoly shit,â he whispered, and Sebastien chuckled softly, a low, amused sound in the back of his throat. Â
âYou recognise the costume?â he asked, seeming innocently amused. The long, dark coat, accented with gold brocade and bright gold buttons, opened briefly in a soft gust of wind that made the lit pumpkins flicker and lifted his loose, silver-white hair back for a breath as well. Â
âIâŠâ he swallowed. âUh, youâre Alucard,â he croaked. âFrom the Castlevania gamesâŠâ A wry incline of Sebastienâs head told him he was correct, and then Alec blurted stupidly, âShouldnât you be shirtless though?â
Sebastienâs smile grew from pleased to deeply amused, his eyes glittering, and it was only then that Alec noticed the contacts burning a bright gold in his eyes and, as his lips peeled back and Sebastien began to laugh, he saw long, tapering, white canines befitting a vampire costume. âItâs a little cold for that, donât you think?â Sebastien asked, still laughing quietly as Alec flushed crimson. Â
âSorry,â he blurted. âI know. I just⊠forget it.â
âWhere do you want it?â Sebastien asked, and Alecâs poor brain went blank. Â
âWhat?â
âThe pumpkin,â Sebastien deadpanned and Alecâs poor, blank brain melted out of his ears with embarrassment. Â
âUh⊠thereâs fine,â he said, pointing at the little wrought-iron garden gate. Â
Sebastien placed the pumpkin down on the flagstone path so that the carved graveyard scene glimmered and flickered with appropriate spookiness, visible to anyone approaching along the quiet, suburban street. Enormous London plane trees stood sentry every few paces, heaving up the tarmac pavement with their roots, like a sleeper shifting a blanket with a restless turn, and sheltering the cars snuggled and parked beneath them. A carpet of leaves clung to the gutter in a long, golden line, melting into nothing in places in the glittering puddles. It would have been beautiful, had Alec not been faced with quite literally the most beautiful thing in the entire universe. Â
âAm I early then?â Sebastien asked, dusting off his palms and turning back to face Alec, who had barely managed to make his legs work long enough to stand up straight again. Â
He shook his head. âNo. Henryâs inside already,â he said, running his fingers through his scruffy black hair. âWith Rachel and Alison. I just forgot to put the pumpkins out earlier.â
âNo costume?â Â
With a roll of his eyes, he shook his head. âNope.â
âToo bad,â Sebastien said, eyeing the front door. The contacts were really creepy, shifting in the light that spilled down the stairs as the front door suddenly opened and Kay stepped out before he could worry that heâd been the only one to dress up. He could probably brush it off anyway, Alec supposed, and tried not to envy the manâs quiet confidence.
Silhouetted starkly against the hall light, with her high âDraculaâ collar on prominent display, Kay shrieked with glee and clapped her hands when she saw Sebastien. Apparently the two of them had been getting along rather well, while Alec had sequestered himself away in the Art Department like an ascetic. Â
âBastien! You look amazing oh my god!â she blurted, rushing forwards a step or two before halting abruptly. âWait, does that make me your father for the evening?â she cackled. âWow, your teeth are really good! Mine wouldn't stay in for more than a few minutesâŠâ
Sebastienâs gold eyes flickered sideways to Alec but it happened so briefly that he almost missed it. âCustom made a long time ago,â was all he said. âShall we go inside? Itâs freezing out here.â
âYes, of course, come on in,â she said, waving them all inside, Sebastien first. As Alec passed her last, she slapped him hard on the backside in rebuke and hissed, âTold you you should have worn a costume! You look like a big dumbo!â
âNo different from any other night,â he quipped back, and she growled something indistinct at him. Perhaps a werewolf costume would have suited her better. âYou could have told me youâd invited DulacâŠâ
âWhy?â she retorted. âSo you could suddenly decide that an evening moping alone with your PS4 playing Rocket League with strangers was more appealing? No fucking chance. Get inside. Sebastienâs right; Iâm freezing my tits off.â
The distant murmur of voices in the living room made him veer off instinctively into the kitchen, and while they began to watch some old Hammer horror film, he made drinks. That, at least, he was good at. Â
Entering a while later, he found that Sebastien was seated on the sofa beside Henry, who wore an enormously fluffy wolfman costume - mostly a repurposed Chewbacca onesie with a latex wolf mask. Heâd pushed the mask up onto his head in order to eat the Halloween themed nibbles on the coffee table, and the effect rendered him entirely ridiculous. Another reason not to wear a costume: itâs impractical, and gets in the way, and washing ketchup out of matted fake fur is a nightmare. Alison and Rachel sat practically in each otherâs laps, one a zombie and the other a ghost, both squeezed into one groaning old armchair. Â
After half an hour of Christopher Leeâs admittedly creepy Dracula, Alec slid from his seat at the periphery, and ducked out again into the kitchen. Straightening from fishing a beer from the back of the fridge, he heard the soft click of the door and turned to find Sebastien standing there. Â
âGet bored with late 1950âs horror too?â Alec asked. âBeer?â
Sebastien inclined his head in a way that said he wasnât a beer drinker and held up his almost-empty wineglass as an excuse as he moved a little closer. âIf you donât like cheesy horror films, and you donât seem to like Halloween either, I wonder why you came at all tonight?â
âFor Kay,â he said, as if it was the most obvious answer in the world. âShe loves this shit.â
At that, Sebastien paused, a delicate smile on his face. In the soft glow of the under-cupboard lighting, his tanned skin seemed to shimmer, and Alec wondered fleetingly if heâd put some kind of glittery body powder on. Next, he wondered what on earth Sebastien was doing in here with him, looking at him like that. Â
âYou are a good friend,â Sebastien said quietly, seeming perhaps a little sad around the edges. Â
âSheâs done more than her fair share of looking after me,â Alec sighed knowingly. âNot that Iâm doing it because I owe her,â he added, twisting the cap off the bottle and leaning back against the counter to drink deeply from it. As the malty froth washed over his tongue, he felt eyes on him and looked over at the other man. Â
Sebastien tilted his head slightly to the side, the false golden light in his eyes making him look like a cat in the dark. âYou said she was trying to set you up with someoneâŠâ
Alec snorted, nearly shooting beer out of his nose. âYeah. Well, she seems to think a good fuck will sort my mood out.â
âBut you think otherwise?â
âYou offering?â he asked bitterly, taking another swig and feeling uncharacteristically bold, though absolutely not expecting the answer he got. Â
âPerhaps.â
His eyebrows shot up and this time he did cough a little. âYou canât be serious.â
âYou think someone who looks like me is entirely straight?â he asked with a wry smile, and Alec had to hand it to him. Not many men he knew could pull of long, luscious, white-blond hair like that, or would have the confidence to wear fucking thigh-high boots and whisper-tight leather pantsâŠ
âStill⊠you donât really know me⊠Thatâs all I meantâŠâ
âDoesn't mean one couldnât engage in â how did you call it? â âa good fuckâ. Not that Iâm averse to getting to know you better, before or after.â
Alec swallowed another enormous gulp of frothing beer and blinked. âYouâre serious?â
With a melodramatic smile that revealed his vampire teeth clearly, âAlucardâ purred, âDeadly.â
And Alec burst out laughing. The spell was shattered and the two men shared the remnants of their drinks and their laughter together before Alec sighed. âYour place or mine?â
At that, Sebastien seemed to falter, as if he hadnât thought through to that point. After a momentâs hesitation, he said, âI assume yours would be alright?â
Alec shrugged. âSure, if you donât mind smacking your head on the ceiling and being able to touch two opposite walls at the same timeâŠâ
Sebastienâs lips hitched into another wry smile. âIâve fucked in tighter spaces, Iâm sure.â
âYou know what?â Alec said as he rinsed out the beer bottle at the sink and half-turned to look at the other man over his shoulder. âYouâre absolutely not what I expected.â
âNor were you,â he shot back, still smirking. âAnd itâs been a while since I was assaulted by someone in a library.â
âBring back happy memories, did it?â he snorted. Â
âNot exactly,â Sebastien murmured, and Alec realised he hadnât actually been joking. âBut I must confess that â despite my behaviour â I was pleasantly surprised by the sight of you when you rounded that bookshelfâŠâ
Turning, Alec approached him cautiously. If he was genuinely serious about his proposal, Alec would find out now. âPleased enough to seek me out afterwardsâŠâ he said, raising his eyebrows. He couldnât do that âone brow at a timeâ thing that Sebastien could, but it seemed to get his tone across all the same.
Unusually for Alec, Sebastien had an inch or two on him in height, and as Alec paused in front of him, close enough to catch the faintest hint of a woody cologne, the man angled his face just perfectly for the light to dance along his high cheekbones. Fuck, he was exquisite. The urge to kiss him rose in Alec; to feel his lips against his own, to have those elegant hands scrunch his hair⊠Â
As if reading his mind, Sebastien slowly, carefully, raised his right hand and brought his index finger to Alecâs chin, tilting it upwards just a fraction with the lightest pressure. The intensity in his eyes was almost too much, and it left Alec breathless. Again. Panting slightly, he parted his lips and then swallowed thickly. Â
Sebastienâs eyes darted instantly to the motion of his throat and for a second, Alec could have sworn he saw a vibrant red light reflected in his eyes. Sensing his moment of hesitation, of tension, Sebastian frowned. âWhat?â
âNothing,â Alec breathed. âI thought your eyes went red but it must have been a car on the street outside or something.â Â
âIndeed,â he murmured, but then blinked rapidly. âDo you still wish to continue this?â
âYes,â he whispered. Don't stop now. His whole body was thrumming in a way it hadnât ever before with casual encounters. He felt alive for the first time in months. Â
Sebastien stepped back, turning his face away a little more. âShould we make our excusesâŠ?â
Alec shook his head. âNah, Kay will know whatâs going on anyway, and I donât want to face her smug looks until tomorrow at the least.â
With a softly amused chuckle, Sebastien stepped back and allowed Alec to leave the room first. The hair on the back of his neck prickled as the other man followed behind, but he didn't turn around or look at him until they were outside on the main street. Â
âItâs a bit of a walkâŠâ Alec said, only realising then how long the walk would be. âIâm way over on the other side of town by the stationâŠâ
The continuing intensity of Sebastienâs scrutiny was beginning to shift from a turn-on to just marginally unnerving, but he told himself that an esteemed professor at one of the countryâs finest universities, with more letters after his name than anyone his age had a right to possess, was unlikely to be truly dangerous for a one-night stand⊠right? There was something about the way he stared at Alec â an unmistakable hunger in his eyes â that made his skin prickle and his heartbeat jump instinctively. Like a deer before the gaze of a tiger, he was entranced. Â
Unexpectedly, Sebastienâs easy stride slowed at the brick gateway to a small, gravel park that sat between an old church and a chemist, the latter closed at this time of night. âMay I kiss you?â he breathed, still gazing at him unblinkingly, as though Alec were the pretty one in this equation, not him. Â
Alec couldnât help grinning. The way Sebastienâs eyes bored into him then drove all thought of threat and fear from his mind, and he nodded. Â
The manâs hands were chilly from the night air, but the moment they cupped his jaw and drew Alec toward him, he forgot about that. He forgot about everything at the meeting of their lips. Sebastien began tentatively, merely brushing their lips together, but when his golden eyes fluttered closed, he deepened the gesture, tongue just begging entrance, teasing him before withdrawing, retreating and returning. Â
Searing want shot down Alecâs spine and he arched into Sebastienâs taller body, hips seeking contact through his jeans. He moaned, deep and guttural, and it seemed to awaken something in Sebastien, because the man grabbed hold of the back of Alecâs hair and pulled his head slightly to one side to begin to kiss along his jawline, down to wards his neck. For a heartbeat, Sebastien froze there, nose pressed to his rabbiting pulse point, his teeth just grazing skin, before he exhaled harshly and stepped back. âWe shouldnât get carried away,â was all he whispered, stepping slightly out of Alecâs dazed field of view. âMy place is nearer though.â
âOk,â Alec said, still reeling. âSure.â
When they reached the apartment building, his steps faltered in amazement. âYou live⊠here?â
A slight flush seemed to warm Sebastienâs cheeks as he stepped up to the main doorway, only to have it opened from the other side by a man in livery. âGood evening, Monsieur Dulac,â said the friendly doorman instantly. Â
âGood evening,â he replied. âThis is my friend, Alec Twayblade.â
It was impossible for the doorman not to realise that his âfriend, Alec Twaybladeâ was going to be a little more than that for the night, but he never let a flicker of judgement pass across his face. From the concierge desk - Sebastienâs building had a fucking concierge desk too - another man looked up and wished them both a good evening as they headed for the lifts. Â
âDoes the English department also sell diamonds or drugs or something? How the fuck can you afford a place like this on a lecturerâs salary?â but even as he said it and the doors closed with a soft chime, he realised the truth of it. Sebastienâs aristocratic features and bearing were not merely a persona. They were truth. He stared up at him while Sebastien turned a key in the lift panel.
âAre you secretly royalty or something?â he whispered, only half joking. Â
The man shot him an amused look and shook his head, silk-white hair whispering against the rougher wool of his costume coat. âNo, of course not, but I do have some inherited wealth.â
Some? âSo you donât actually have to work at the university at all then?â
He made a so-so motion of his head and said, âNo, not really, but I genuinely enjoy teaching.â
âYour students certainly seem to enjoy youâŠâ
âYou donât enjoy teaching?â he asked as the numbers on the dial climbed and climbed. Â
Please donât say you live in the fucking penthouse too, Alec thought, already suspecting it might be true from the whole âspecial access keyâ. He glanced at the number pad and saw that the button labelled âPHâ was illuminated. Fuck. âMost days I enjoy it,â he admitted. âBut I kind of fell into it a while back and just sort ofâŠâ he shrugged, âStuck with it.â
Sebastien asked no more, and the lift finally stopped on the top floor. The doors drew back to reveal an apartment beyond that Alec could only gawp at. It was like something from the set of an Architectural Digest photo shoot. Nothing was out of place in the hardwood floor paradise, with clean, crisp lines and white marble counter tops in the kitchen off to his left, while a comfortable, and yet still clinically modern, sitting area sat to their right. Deep, fluffy rugs dotted that part of the penthouse, and a wide balcony stretched out over the city beyond, complete with a little table and chairs for warmer evenings. Â
âThis place is incredible,â Alec breathed, the reason for his even being here completely forgotten. Â
Clearly sensing that, Sebastien smiled bashfully and said, âWould you like something to drink?â
Alec cleared his throat and hoped he wasnât going to be faced with a choice between very expensive wines that heâd never heard of. âSure⊠thanks.â
âWhite, red, beer, or whisky?â he asked, walking towards the kitchen and dumping his âAlucardâ coat over the back of a white sofa as he went. Alecâs mouth went dry as he watched the point where his narrow hips met the flowing material of the white shirt. Dear god, an arse like that shouldnât be⊠well, it just shouldnât be. And yet there it was. Clad in leather and looking positively delectable. âOr a soft drink?â he added when Alec remained silent. Â
Aware of where his gaze had landed, Sebastien halted and looked back over his shoulder, long, loose, naturally straight hair already losing the curls that had been worked into it for the Alucard costume. Definitely not straight, if he owned hair curlers. Â
âUhâŠâ Alec said, unsure what the question had even been now. Â
âIâm going to pour myself a whisky, if that helpsâŠ?â
âYeah, sure.â
Sebastien smiled, looking almost endeared by Alecâs inept stuttering. Surely he couldnât be unused to such a reaction? âMake yourself at home then.â
With a smoky, peat-tinged whisky in a wide, heavy-bottomed tumbler set on his glass coffee table, Alec watched Sebastien turn the gas fire on, and, to his surprise, he came to a halt directly in front of him. Setting his own whisky down on the table with a deliberate, and yet delicate, clunk, Sebastien turned back to him and raked his eyes down Alecâs body in a way that made him flush hot all over. His cock twitched with interest and he tried not to preen under that gaze. Â
Sebastienâs eyes and teeth were back to normal now, with no hint of the golden contacts or the vampire fangs, and Alec fleetingly assumed that he must have removed them at some point between getting the whisky and appearing in front of him looking like he was about to ravish him. Oh dear god, please let him be about to ravish me, he thought with a big, dumb grin spreading across his face. Â
Seeing his reaction, Sebastien reached down and knelt facing him on the sofa, running his palm over the already-growing bulge in Alecâs jeans. Alec let out a deep grunt and rocked his hips up into the contact, throwing his head back against the soft, open weave of the white fabric. âOh fuck,â he hissed. Â
Sebastienâs fingers found the button of his jeans and deftly undid it, but he paused. âMay I?â he asked, and Alec found himself nodding before heâd even worked out what Sebastien wanted. Â
He found out a moment later, when his jeans were around his ankles and Sebastien was kneeling on the floor between his knees and licking a long stripe up the length of his rapidly hardening cock. Â
âOh god,â he panted as the wet heat of Sebastienâs mouth engulfed half of his length and then drew back to leave his wet tip exposed to the slight chill of the apartment air. The contrast stole his breath for a heartbeat, but Sebastien returned his attentions to his cock, gently sucking and working him to full hardness in a matter of minutes. Â
Pleasure sparked through Alecâs whole body and he strained not to thrust back into Sebastienâs mouth, even as Sebastien took him right to the back of his throat, the tip of Alecâs cock nudging against the silky resistance of his throat. Â
âFuck, fuck, fuckâŠâ he chanted as Sebastienâs fingertips just teased and caressed the underside of his balls too, and Sebastien hollowed his cheeks and sucked a little more insistently. âOh fuckâŠâ Really fucking eloquent here, Alec, he thought vaguely, but one look down at the vision kneeling between his legs and sucking him off drove even that thought from his brain. Â
The suck and slide of Sebastienâs mouth was incredible, and while he had no idea quite how much time passed, it felt like mere seconds as the heat stoked in him until he could feel the orgasm threatening to crash through him. âIâm⊠Iâm really closeâŠâ he gasped as Sebastien moaned against his cock, sending little vibrations thrumming through him and tipping him even closer. The sharp prick of his teeth every now and again was a perfect counterpoint to the slick heat of his mouth, and it was never enough to hurt. Normally Alec wasnât one for including teeth in this, but with Sebastien, it felt perfect. Â
Sebastien pulled back just as Alec felt himself beginning to coil up, his lips swollen and glistening from the exertion of bringing him that close, and he smiled. He looked radiant, and Alecâs cock twitched enthusiastically in his hands as he let out a soft whimper. The air was cold and his tip beaded pre-come freely, which Sebastien thumbed away with a surprisingly tender gesture, only to watch as more pearled immediately at his slit. Using just the tip of his tongue, Sebastien lapped at it delicately and Alecâs whole body shuddered. Â
His thighs shook at the tiny, intense stimulation, with Sebastien's fingers gripping the base of his cock in a tight circle, and he gasped, chest heaving. It was too much and not enough, and as he found his perineum teased as well, he bellowed and trembled. He was half a heartbeat away from coming harder than he could ever remember coming in his life, and Sebastien wasnât going to let him have it. He roared and ground his teeth, bucking his hips, which made Sebastien laugh softly. Â
âAlright,â he heard him murmur, before he swallowed him down to the back of his throat again, and Alec shattered with a yell.
When he finally blinked his eyes open, he found that Sebastien had risen and was sitting on the small sofa beside him, whisky in hand, staring openly at him. He didnât look smug exactly, but there was a quiet satisfaction to his brown eyes that made Alec flush, at which Sebastienâs beautiful lips drew back into a smile. He noted again those slightly larger canines, but they were nothing like the vampire teeth he had worn earlier. Â
âWhat do you want?â Alec asked, voice hoarse. God, he sounded wrecked. Had he really shouted so hard heâd made his throat sore?
Sebastienâs dolorous, dark eyes crinkled slightly at the corners. âWhat do you want?â
âTo watch you come,â he said immediately. Â
âAnd how would you like me to come?â Sebastien replied, sipping nonchalantly at the golden liquor as if the were discussing what Alec would like Sebastien to wear. As it was, his leather pants were constricting his obvious hard-on in a way that had to be painful for him, and his shirt was open at the neck to reveal delicate collarbones and a glimpse of his beautiful olive skinned chest. Â
He was an absolute vision. âFuck, youâre so beautiful,â he blurted in a whisper before he could stop himself, and to his surprise, Sebastien laughed. The sound was bright, delighted, and oddly self-conscious, as if he hadnât been expecting a compliment like that. âSorry,â he added, looking away. âLook⊠if youâve got condoms, Iâm⊠Iâm good to⊠you knowâŠâ
âYou want me to fuck you?â Sebastien asked, his gaze sharpening again. Â
âYes?â Â
ââYes?â Or âyesââŠ?â Sebastien asked, seeking clarification. Â
âYes. But I don't understand your question.â
âLook at me,â Sebastien said. Â
âHard not toâŠâ Alec quipped back, still feeling utterly wrung out. Â
âMost people assume Iâm going to be the one taking itâŠâ
Alecâs eyebrows rose as realisation settled. âOh. And, what, I look like a top?â
Sebastienâs lips twitched. âConventionally more so than I do, with your rugged looks and the rough shadow around your jawâŠâ
âSo⊠do you want me to⊠you knowâŠ? OrâŠâ Fuck, he felt like a teenager again, struggling to articulate himself and not get his sentences in a tangle while this breathtaking creature just sat there and watched him make an idiot out of himself.
âI very much want to fuck you,â Sebastien said at last. âIf youâd like that as well.â
âYes,â he said instantly. Â
Sebastien set down his glass and rose in a single, elegant motion, and then held his hand out to Alec.
His skin was still cool, especially next to Alecâs searing body, and his hold was steady as Alec heaved himself to his feet and allowed himself to be alternately tugged and kissed into the bedroom.Â

Anon said: WHAT is your drawing process please reveal your secrets I am b e g g i n g you
Itâs nothing complicated, honestly! I sketch out a very rough idea of what I want to draw, then line it as loosely and smoothly as I can manage, add flat colors on another layer, shadows on a multiply layer clipped on the flats one, and then adjust the light/intesity of the colors with a airbrush tool on an overlay layer - itâs really the simplest process known to human artist hahaha I posted a step by step on my patreon at some point, but maybe one day Iâll find a way to make a process video and show you guys how I do it.................... maybe if Iâll ever get to buy an ipad, thatâd make my life easier

Anon said: Could you do a tutorial on lineart? Yours is so clean Iâm jealous
Itâs not like I donât want to, itâs just that thereâs very little to it I could actually make a tutorial about? I try to keep my sketches vague and simple to not trap myself in the need to make the line look exactly identical to the sketch, and I try to keep my lines as long and uninterrupted as possible, let my hand kind of go the way it feels most comfortable to it if that makes sense, and I use ctrl+z A Lot to be sure the line flows the way I want it to in the direction I want it to go, and thatâs honestly all there is to it! Itâs not really about technique as much as it is about letting yourself keep as loose and fast as possible while putting down the lines, I really have no idea how else to explain it Iâm sorry m(._.)m
Anon said: Sorry if this is an overasked question, but... what are your pronouns? I donât wanna misgender you -.-
she/her! and donât worry, you asking is no bother :D
Anon said: can ppl send, like, random hcs or thoughts to you? not like, drawing requests, you don't take those i know, but just because?
Hell yeah, please do!! I love to hear thoughts and headcanons, it makes my own creativity itch to get to work!!Â

CHAPTER TWELVE: SLAVE TO THE WAY YOU MOVEÂ (6.2K)
Harry and Y/N are friendsâŠ. with benefits, but not the kinds youâre thinking of.
đ„„MASTERLIST đINSPO TAG đ»ASK TAG đPLAYLIST đ
When her phone rang the next morning, she didnât exactly get to it very easily. Not when she tried to roll away from Harry and he groaned, holding onto her even tighter.
âLeave it,â he whispered in a raspy version of his voice, eyes still closed, arm still firmly curled around her waist.
âItâs probably Will,â she reminded him, attempting once again to move away from Harry.
But he just groaned again like he was some kind of possessive dog. She huffed, falling against his chest when he showed no signs of giving up. Which remained true until she dug her hands into his side and tickled him away from her.
âOi! Stop it!â He whined, finally letting go and pushing her away from him until he rolled over on his side and she was free to answer her phone.
âYou cheating fucker,â he mumbled half into his pillow while she sat on the edge of the bed and took care of Willâs call before it went to voicemail.
âHello?â
âHey, you're still at Harryâs right?â
âYeah.âÂ
âIâm out front. Sorry I didnât call before I got here, itâs just been hectic.â
She immediately shot up from her spot on his bed and Harry opened his eyes again, turning onto his back to watch her as she raced to retrieve her clothes.
âOh, um... I was just going to get an uber or something.â She held her phone to her ear with her shoulder as she grabbed her bra and then her dress from Harryâs floor.Â
âItâs no big deal. Iâm headed back to pick up a few things anyways because Iâm going to stay with Sasha the rest of the weekend.â
Y/N had been too lost in her panicking that she forgot why sheâd ended up where she did last night in the first place. âIs she alright? Her mom I mean.â
Will sighed through the receiver, âYeah. She was having chest pains yesterday. They kept her overnight for observation. I just got them home about an hour ago, but Iâm literally still in my clothes from last night.â
Y/N glanced over her shoulder at Harry, who stared at her concerned, waiting himself to know what was going on and why it seemed like she was leaving him already.
âOkay, um, Iâll be there in a minute.â
And then Harry shut his eyes tight and wished they could just rewind and go back to sleep.
âHeâs waiting outside.â She spoke softly and Harry opened his eyes to her, finding her phone in her hand instead of at her ear.
Harry nodded, knowing she didnât have any other options. She stared at him for a moment, growing sadder by the second, before she reluctantly took her clothes to his bathroom with her and changed back into them.
When the bathroom door shut behind her, he rolled onto his stomach, pressing his face into his hands because her leaving was not at all in his plans for the morning. He had so much more to say to her, more kisses to give her.Â
He didnât want her to go home and never come back again because, in his experience, saying I love you wasnât always enough to get someone to stay.Â
She crawled onto the bed behind him once she was changed, placing his t-shirt onto his bare shoulder to get his attention. Once he looked at her, she smiled apologetically.
âIâll be back, I promise.â She leaned down, pressing her lips to his. She pulled away quicker than he would have liked her to and she looked at him almost like she was about to cry when he pouted and reached for more. She hated leaving him like she was, with so many words hanging above them still, but Will left her no choice.Â
âSorry for bailing on you like that.â Will said while he drove in a hurry, breaking the speed limit on every street it took to get back to their building. She couldnât blame him though.
Shaking her head, she quickly shot him down. âDonât worry about it.â And she really wished he wouldnât. After the night she had, she should be thanking him for leaving her at the party.Â
âGuess Harry owed you anyways for that one time he got drunk and you let him sleep in your bed.â Will smiled, glancing over at her while she nodded in agreement. Her heart fluttered thinking back to that time and how far she and Harry had come since then. She wondered if heâd liked her back then too, in the same way she had liked him, and just how long she was blind to it.Â
Will explained everything that happened with Sasha the rest of the way and she listened quietly, respecting his need to release all the anxious thoughts even though she sometimes found herself getting distracted. It was Harryâs fault, she figured, heâd said he was in love with her, and kissed her when he was sober, and she didn't get the chance to say a single word to him yet.
Y/N and Will split ways when he rushed to his room to pack a bag and she sat on the edge of her bed, waiting until he left again before she called Harry. A text might have sufficed, asking what time she could come back, but she wanted to hear his voice again. Desperately.
Her phone dinged in her hands before she got the chance, however.
(Harry, 10:03 a.m.)
Just got called to a meeting until five. I can pick you up afterwards?
Her shoulders dropped and a frown pulled on her lips. Five oâclock was so far away she had no clue what she was going to do until then. She had no plans for the day besides spending the entire thing with Harry.Â
(Y/N, 10:03 a.m.)
Okay.
âIâll be back tomorrow night.â Will poked his head in her room and she tried to pretend like she didnât just get the worst news of her entire life.Â
She nodded and he hesitated a moment before he left, wanting to ask if sheâd be alright by herself in the apartment all weekend, but he refrained. She wasnât a baby and he needed to stop worrying so much. His lips fell into another apologetic smile just before he took off. She listened to his footsteps and then eventually the front door as he shut it behind him.
Falling back on her bed, she already wished she was in Harryâs again. She still felt his arms around her, his lips on hers, his breath as he said those words.Â
When it was nearing five, she was just about ready. Harry had texted that he got out early and was on his way right as she got out of the shower. With her towel wrapped around her, she walked over to her dresser to figure out what to wear and put her focus on that, which calmed her nerves about seeing Harry again.
She dug through her underwear drawer first, realizing she hadnât done laundry in a while when she only had a couple clean pairs left. But in her attempts to choose between the bright purple pair with pictures of cats on them or the stripey one with âWednesdayâ printed on the back, her eyes fell to something much more appealing at the bottom of her drawer that she hadnât seen or thought of in a long time.Â
Sheâd never had a need for a nice set of lingerie, not even when sheâd bought it just after graduating college. No one was going to see it besides her, but that really hadnât mattered because it was for her. Picking the lace bra and panty set up in her hands now, it reminded her of when sheâd first saw it online and then opened it up in person. When she tried it on and looked at herself in the mirror with all the hope in the world that it would make her see her body differently. It didnât quite work out that way, however. It wasnât an instant fix to her problems as she dreamed it would be, but even though she didnât care for how she looked in it, it still made her feel better about herself, so she hung onto them.Â
And she was glad for that because if something were to happen with Harry, she was not doing it in kitty cat undies and a bra she owned since freshman year.Â
She had no clue if they would even get to the point of Harry seeing what was underneath her clothes, but just the thought of it made her restless in the passenger seat of his car. Then there was just being in his car at all that had her in a fit of butterflies as well because it was the first time theyâd been out in public like this together. They werenât around friends, not in the comfort of either of their homes anymore and while it used to scare her to potentially be caught with Harry, now she was wishing someone would. It would make telling her roommates, and especially Will, that much easier.Â
In order to keep her thoughts and her body under control, she focused on the mundane things instead. Everything she wanted to say to him was going to have to wait until they were at his house because that was the only place she felt comfortable enough to be completely vulnerable with him.Â
âHow was your meeting?â She asked after he pulled back onto the streets again and although it was a boring question, it still made her just as nervous, possibly because she knew it was just her stalling until they walked through his front doors.
âAlright,â he mumbled, âwould have rather spent the day with you.â
Looking out her window instead of at him, she quickly hid the blush on her cheeks. The lingerie on her skin under her long-sleeve and jeans became all-too apparent again. She needed to calm down, that much she knew, because she didn't even know what Harry wanted yet and she definitely wasnât doing anything until sheâd said what she needed to say.Â
She sighed shakily, âWell you can have me for the rest of the weekend.â
He grinned at her words, not sure if she was hiding an innuendo in them or not, but he didnât risk asking. She was staying, at least until the weekend was over, and thatâs all he cared about.
Once theyâd reached his house, and she glared at the stupid For Sale sign again, she realized why she hated it so much. It wasnât just a house to her anymore, it wasnât some place that made her feel like a stranger. It held her most personal objects and most precious memories. It had become home to her, way more than her apartment ever did.
She placed her things down on the island in the kitchen and it was clear he had hired someone to clean up while heâd been gone. There was no chocolate cake smeared into the countertops and no empty bottles of beer laying around anymore. It was clean again with absolutely no telling if a party had even happened last night. Sheâd almost forgotten, too, since the only part of last night on her mind was when theyâd gone upstairs together.
Watching him pour two glasses of water, it took her right back to their first night together. So much had changed since then. She wasnât even the same person anymore, she was sure of that.Â
Although she was possibly the most nervous sheâd ever been, she knew she had to just spit it out. Rip the band-aid off and tell him everything she felt about him. She cleared her throat and hoped for the best.
âI liked you all this time too, you know.â Her confession wasn't nearly up to par with his, but heâd take it anyways. Grinning, he glanced at her sideways while closing the fridge.
âCouldâve fooled me.â He slipped her one of the glasses across the counter, knowing very well that she did, in fact, fool him into thinking otherwise. Until she kissed him this morning and promised sheâd be back, he still hadnât been convinced.
A slew of apologies rested on her face, in her furrowed brows and flared nostrils, âI didnât think you liked me so it was easier for me to just push you away.â
He leaned onto the counter, facing her but not looking at her. His mind went in all different directions then. First to the time he told Will he thought heâd made his feelings for her obvious and now realized Will had been right. Then, and most prominently, his mind snapped to quite possibly the worst day of his life, or at least since heâd known her. His heart broke all over again when her previous words rang in his head as clear as they had several weeks ago. When she told him she didnât care if he saw other people. When he cried in the exact same spot he was standing in now because he thought she didnât have a single feeling for him at all. He never thought she just might be pushing him away in order to protect herself and he felt stupid for not realizing that.
But⊠hiding her emotions seemed to be Y/Nâs specialty.
âYou were really good at that⊠pushing me away.â
She sighed again and all the words in her brain finally just spilled out for him to hear and for the kitchen walls to absorb. âIâm really sorry about that Harry, I think I was just too afraid of you rejecting me⊠and you never really said anything either so I assumed⊠But I was heartbroken when I found out what you did in New York, I just,â she paused for a moment to look into his eyes again and the way he looked at her with so much care gave her enough confidence to continue, âI didnât want you to think I liked you, or that I was jealous, because I didnât think you would ever feel the same about me.â
Harry remained quiet when it was written all over her face that she still had more to say and all he wanted to do was listen. âBut then, um,â she began once more, âthen I didn't really want you to like me or for that song to be about me or any of it because I felt like you would be better off with someone else who could be more open with you.â Her next words came out in a whisper, âI just thought it was best to leave you alone.â
He nodded, averting his eyes to where he ran his fingertip over the edge of his glass, figuring out everything he wanted to say first but when he looked at her again, he realized that was part of their problem. Not just saying how they really felt without thinking of the consequences.
He took the two steps needed to stand right in front of her, to be able to reach out and tuck her hair behind her ear and fill his senses with everything he loved about her. Her soft skin when his thumb brushed past her cheek, her coconut-scented shampoo, and especially her eyes that cared about him and trusted him.
âThatâs not what was best, I hope you know that.â He began softly and she nodded before he continued. âAlso hope you know how sorry I am that it took me so long to say anything to you⊠but I realized I was falling in love with you after you told me about your past. So when you said you didnât like relationships, I didnât want to hurt you so I kept it to myself. But I still foolishly fell for you anyways, didnât I?â He glanced between her eyes, watching the crinkles appear on the outside of them as she smiled.
âBut Y/N?â He started up again and her smile faded when his did too, âThere was never anyone else I wanted. I canât even tell you how sorry I am for making you think that and upsetting you. That was never my intention.â
She hesitated a moment before swiping a few stray strands of hair from his forehead. âItâs okay. I know that now.â
There was still a look of uncertainty in his eyes, like he didnât deserve to be forgiven and like he still wasnât sure she was actually going to stay, and he wouldnât blame her if she didnât want to.
âIâm not going to leave again, HarryâŠâ she assured, practically reading his mind in a way she had never been able to. âNot unless you want me to of course.âÂ
He shook his head, a small smile playing on his lips as he grew closer, close enough to press his forehead to hers and swipe his thumb along her cheekbone, âNo, I donât want that. I never wanted that.â
Although he was still smiling, sadness fell over his eyes that he quickly hid by flicking them down to her lips. She had already been in love with the way he looked at her mouth, but if it was even possible, she liked it more now. Now that they werenât being idiots and wasting time. Now that both of their mouths had said things theyâd been meaning to for a long time now.
He glanced back to her yes, all sadness stripped from his face now, âS'alright if I--â
She cut him off, already nodding before he had a chance to ask. She didnât want him to ask that question ever again. She didnât want him to worry about being too forward, about hurting her, about crossing a line. There was no line for him to cross. She just wanted him to kiss her without thinking about it.
And he did. It took him another few moments, but his lips were on hers again and it felt just as amazing as it did last night and then again this morning. She hated that she could have been kissing him for a long time now, but she tried not to dwell on her mistakes too heavily. Not when he was kissing her the way he was and all she wanted to focus on was his lips and his tongue and his hands.
His hands that fled from her face moments after she brushed her tongue against his and things took a turn from innocent kissing in his kitchen to needy hands sliding up the back of her shirt and wet moans from his lips when she pressed into him. It helped her confidence knowing his fingertips were inching closer to her bra, the one she was grateful she had on right now.
And then she wrapped her hands around his forearms and backed away before he got any further. But when she saw the look on his face, she wasnât sure that was the right move. He was absolutely terrified. He pulled his arms from her grasp quickly and put an inch or two of space between them again.
âIâm so sorry.â
Again, she put a halt to his train of thought with a simple gesture. She shook her head and reached her hand up to his face, wrapping it around the back of his neck and pressing her thumb where his dimple should be.Â
âDonât be⊠just meet me upstairs in ten minutes.â Her voice was soft, but her eyes might as well have been undressing him right there in the middle of his kitchen. Although that would have been nice, she really didnât want him to see her in her lacy underwear in his fucking kitchen. The lights were too bright for her liking and she never got the chance to warm up to the space as much as she did his bedroom.Â
His body eased and then he nodded slowly, never looking away from her while she pulled her hand from his face, grabbed her bag and walked away from him.Â
Ten minutes was way too much time to be away from her and he spent the whole spanse of time staring at the clock, wishing it would go faster but also wishing it wouldnât. He had no idea what she was up to and even though his mind went crazy with all the endless possibilities, he just hoped that whatever it was, she knew what she was doing.Â
She squeezed her hands around the arms of his chair when she heard him heading up the stairs. She didnât move, however, just focused on her breathing as she convinced herself not to run into his bathroom and hide before he made it to her.
Ten minutes was four minutes too long. She sat down and realized that once every piece of her body was set aflame with anticipation. She knew what she wanted, but she still wasnât sure about him. What if he didnât want her?Â
The events from last night flew past her eyelids. He kissed you because he wanted to, not because he was drunk, she reminded herself. And he kissed you again, moments ago in the kitchen, also not because he was drunk. She thought about his touch on her skin, slowly inching up her back. She thought about his words from last night and they settled her nerves down to a minimum.
That was until he appeared in the doorway to his bedroom.
He sucked in a breath of air seeing her in that familiar spot in the middle of his room. Sitting on her throne and looking out over Los Angeles like she owned it. But it was hardly what he expected when she told him to meet her here. Especially when she didnât even look at him, just tensed up her shoulders and her grip on the chair when she noticed his presence.
âEverything alright?â He asked and she continued to just stare out the windows, nodding and trying to regain whatever courage she had in order to ask him to do this in the first place.
He furrowed his brows, confused as he walked over to his bedside table and removed his phone and wallet from his back pockets and then each of his rings from his fingers, knowing that whatever she was planning, he didnât want anything weighing him down. It also gave them both a moment to relax.
Right when he began removing his watch, the last thing on him besides his shirt and jeans, she stood and took a few steps in his direction. He froze and looked at her while she hugged her arms around herself. He realized then that she was wearing a robe which looked an awful lot like one of his. If the lighting was better, heâd be able to make out the stitching on the left breast of his last name and confirm that she had, in fact, slipped into his robe while she made him wait downstairs.
âWhat are you--?â
He stopped talking, and stopped thinking and probably stopped breathing when she untied the belt around her waist and let both halves of the robe fall open to reveal what sheâd been hiding underneath. His watch hit the floor instead of the table.Â
He swallowed thickly, not sure how long was too long to stare at her like he currently was with his jaw slightly ajar and his eyes refusing to blink in case he might miss something.Â
When he snapped out of it, he walked over to her finally, not giving a single shit about his watch. He stood in front of her and kept his hands to himself even though it was painful to do so. Instead, his eyes flickered to the embroidery on the silky fabric draped over her shoulders and he grinned, âSâthat my robe?âÂ
It was a dumb question, because of course it was his. It had his name stitched into it.Â
âHope itâs okay that I borrowed it.â She ran her fingers up the hem and made him light-headed. Her matching pink lace underwear was one thing, but the robe was almost too much for him to process. Â
He dragged his eyes reluctantly from her breasts, the transparent material showing off more of her than heâd ever seen, and back up to her eyes. âIf I say it isnât, will you take it off?â
She smiled at him and then took one step closer. âWhy donât you,â she began, grabbing his hands and placing them on her bare hips, âtake it off yourself?â
Her voice was shaky and even though her actions exuded confidence, he knew her anxiety must be through the roof. He knew her too well. He knew she didnât like being touched, didnât like being seen when she wasnât covered. Didnât like being open. It soothed his own nerves to know that all of the things she didnât like became things she did, as long as it was with him. The only thing on his radar now was making her as comfortable as he possibly could.
When she let go of his hands, he kept them there, pulling her in to close the gap sheâd left between them until his mouth found hers again. Heâd daydreamed through his entire meeting about kissing her the entire rest of the night, but that was no match to the reality of it. Never in his wildest dreams did he expect her to be standing in front of him like she was, putting his hands on her body in a whole new way than ever before.
His fingers slid gently up to her shoulders where he slipped them under the silk until it fell right off her skin and gathered into a pool at her feet. He pulled away for a moment, resting his forehead on hers when she reached for more. He smirked at the way she pouted impatiently.Â
âYouâre so beautiful,â he whispered, bringing a hand up to tuck her hair behind her ear and he didnât give her much of a chance to respond, but the blush on her cheeks and the sparkle in her eyes said more than enough.Â
Once his lips were on hers again, he backed her up slowly, stepping right on top of his, now irrelevant, robe until they reached the chair.Â
She pulled away from him this time and when she spoke next, there wasnât a stitch of hesitation in her voice, âI want you.â
Swallowing, he nodded in understanding. She knew exactly what she was doing and she wanted him. His hands were back on her hips as he gently coerced her into the chair.
âSit,â he whispered and she did exactly what he said without a second thought.Â
She was back in her chair in front of him, her hands gripping the armrests while she looked up into his eyes eagerly because she had no clue what he was planning but she trusted him to know that whatever it was, he wouldnât hurt her. He was Harry and heâd never make her do something she didnât want to.Â
He sunk to his knees then and she already felt the pool between her legs before he even touched her. He never took his eyes off of her when he lifted his hands to her knees and slowly slid them apart to fit himself in the middle. He waited for any signs that he should stop, but when she glanced down at his hands that sat idly on her thighs, he figured it was a good time to move them.
âIs this alright?â He asked after heâd hooked his fingers under what little fabric there was of her panties and paused to make sure. When she nodded, he proceeded and began pulling them off. He went slow, almost painfully for her, but she was appreciative of it. If he went much faster she wasnât sure how sheâd respond and ruining everything right now was not on her agenda.
Again, his eyes stayed planted on hers as he tugged the lace over her hips when she adjusted slightly to give him room to do so. They went the rest of the way down her legs with ease until they, too, were on his bedroom floor. Her legs fell back into place around him as he slotted into his previous position. She focused on everything physically here and now as best she could, whether it was the way he looked at her, or the way the fabric of his shirt felt on her knees, the rough texture of his jeans on her calves. Just knowing that it was Harry sitting in front of her like this, while she was this exposed, calmed her right back down. Well, at least, it calmed the nerves, but she still felt the surge of butterflies in her stomach every time he made a slight movement and she could nearly puke with excitement.
âYou okay?â He asked quietly, and her eyes bounced from his down to where their bodies connected and then back up and she nodded. It reassured him because even though she had said she wanted him, she had every right to change her mind.
âLet me know if you want me to stop.â
She nodded again, positive that if she opened her mouth to say something nothing would even come out. Her lack of ability to speak made him smile, though, as he slowly descended down her body.Â
He kissed her from her collarbone down to her belly, pulling her legs out around his waist so that she slouched in the chair and gave him better access by the time he reached his destination. His hands gripped her thighs tight as he sat back on his knees and let his mouth do the talking.
She tensed up the second he licked the tip of his tongue into her and he immediately backed away staring up at her in shock that heâd already done something to hurt her.
Instead, she finally opened her own mouth, âIâm sorry, Iâm fine. I just⊠didnât expect⊠you can keep going.âÂ
He fell back into place hesitantly, but this time he kissed his way up her inner thigh, making sure to keep at least one eye on her at all times. When he had his tongue on her again, though, she sunk into her seat with a sigh and he wasnât as worried.Â
When he spread her open with both his hands planted on her inner thighs, his tongue explored even more to the point of finally managing a moan out of her. She didnât give him a whole lot, but he didnât really need it the way he watched her like a hawk to make absolutely sure she was really okay.Â
And she did seem that way, she seemed more than okay, in fact. Everytime he flicked his tongue over just the right spot, her eyes rolled back into her head and so he made mental notes of everything she liked best. Even though she never closed her eyes completely, never looked away from him for more than a second, what she did do was more than enough. Although he normally got off on verbal praise, just the way her body reacted to him seemed to do all the tricks he needed it to. The way she moved against him, the way her eyebrows furrowed and her lips pouted and she sucked in shaky breaths, he didnât need anything more than that.
What she did next had him moaning, however. She dug her fingernails into his scalp and tugged his curls, leaving him in stinging pain that felt so fucking incredible. It was just another reminder from her that what he was doing was good and that he made her feel good enough to have her hands at the back of his head trying to get more from him. He fidgeted and shifted his weight just to get some relief himself while he looked at her with darkened green eyes and his tongue suddenly picked up the pace.
She gasped and leaned back into the chair, her eyes fluttering shut. He let her do it for a moment until he slowed to a stop and pulled his mouth away just far enough to speak.Â
âOpen your eyes,â he whispered, catching his breath, and she felt the heat of it on the sensitive bits his tongue had just been getting to know. She, again, did as he asked without question. His voice wasnât filled with anything but care for her so no matter what he asked, sheâd probably do it.
âDonât stop looking at me, okay?âÂ
She agreed, nonverbally, before he even considered continuing where he left off. It wasnât that he needed to see her face, although that had been a huge factor in telling him what he needed to do. It was mostly that he didnât want her to close her eyes and have a single stitch of an intrusive thought leak into her brain. He didnât want her to see anything besides him, not the trauma sheâd been through or the face of the asshole who had done it. He wanted her to see him; his green eyes, his dimples, his curly brown hair that tickled her skin and framed his sweaty forehead. He wanted her to see that it was him on his hands and knees in front of her and that his touches would not make her hate her body. They wouldnât betray her or disrespect her. Her body was safe in his hands and he wanted her to see that.
When he knew she was close, he found her hands digging into the cushion below her and slipped his fingers through hers instead, letting her squeeze the life out of them and dig crescent shapes into his skin. By this point, heâd become obsessed with her body, in love with the way it said everything her mouth didnât. He didnât need her to say anything, though, he never really did. Just being near her had always been more than enough. The only thing he would need her to say now though, was if she wanted him to stop.
But those words never left her lips and he stopped expecting them to as he watched her face contort with pleasure. He wondered if anyone had ever made her feel as good as he was and it made him sad to think sheâd gone so long never being treated the way she deserved. He adjusted again and gave her everything he was capable of.
Her body moved against him like a tidal wave and heâd probably let her drown him if it meant feeling her buck her hips up into his mouth the way she was and heâd most definitely die at the hands of her body if it meant feeling her heels dig into his back for an ounce of mercy. He didnât give her very much though, mostly because the look on her face told him that if he stopped now, she might actually kill him.Â
Even so, he worshiped the fuck out of her in every sense of the word. He never looked away, he watched her mouth as it fell open. He watched her eyebrows as they furrowed. And most importantly, he watched her eyes until she couldnât take it anymore and they crossed back into her head, while her whole body shivered against him. He felt her coming more than he heard anything about it at first.Â
But then she whispered and he completely forgot what he was doing.Â
âI love you so much, Harry.â
He blinked, looking up at her so much more in love than he ever had been before. He wanted to kiss her, to hear her say it again ten more times at least. When her hips shifted upwards again, he snapped out of it and scooted closer to her to gain some control while she was losing it, using his forearms on her hips to keep her in place. That had only led her to squeeze his hands tighter than ever before while her thighs got him in a choke hold, but he loved every single second of it, which is why he didnât take his tongue away from her until she settled down.Â
She breathed heavily for a few moments while he watched her come down from her high as he rested his cheek against her thigh and stared up at her, still holding onto her hands and rubbing his thumb across the back of one of them. He heard her words over in his head again and they became his most favorite words ever.
âSo you do love me?â He asked quietly, not wanting to miss too much of the sounds of her catching her breath because of what heâd just done to her body.
She laughed and fluttered her eyes shut again. After a moment, she shook her head and changed the subject, âPlease don't ever leave this house.â
He chuckled, sending cool air against her core again while he leaned over to kiss her thigh softly, âWhatever you say.â
