Mom Goes Viral on TikTok and Twitter For Buying Son A Pink Cocomelon Backpack

[hollywoodhandwriting]

The Dude Goes West (1948), dir. Kurt Neumann

[denimbex1986]

'CAN we talk about the music that soundtracks Andrew Haigh's multiple-BAFTA award-nominated romance fantasy drama, All of Us Strangers?

But first, a brief synopsis. A screenwriter drawn back to his childhood home enters into a fledgling relationship with a mysterious neighbour in a near-empty East London tower block as he then discovers his parents appear to be living just as they were on the day they died in a car crash, 30 years before.

Andrew Scott (Adam) and Paul Mescal (Harry) are at the heart of an intense slow-burner that tugs at the heartstrings in ways you just weren't expecting and packs an emotional punch that stays with you for days afterwards.

Anyone whose formative musical years were in the 1980s will recognise many of the songs, starting with the integral The Power of Love by Frankie Goes to Hollywood, imbued with so much meaning in this film it is almost an additional character in itself and at the heart of a truly moving coda.

Haigh also uses The Pet Shop Boys' version of Always on my Mind in a wordless but deeply resonant scene in which two lines of the lyrics encapsulate decades-old regrets spanning generations.

Elsewhere you see the needle drop on The Housemartins' Build while a pivotal moment in a club foray is soundtracked by Blur's Death of a Party.

Haigh's use of everything from The Ink Spots' I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire to the original score piece, Can I Hug You Now?, serves a purpose. For anyone who believes in music's ability to help tell a story, it's a treat.

Changing attitudes to homosexuality are explored in what is clearly a deeply personal issue for the director as are the choices we make on who we let into our lives and when and the life-changing difference that can make. While there are lengthy periods of dialogue, the director has a knack for sucker punch moments of intensity that will stay with you long after the credits roll.'

[etherealrin]

⋆.˚ call it what you want

in which proplayer!sae could care less about what the media was calling you two, if it means being with you again

warnings: none // wc: 647

note: fem reader! badly proofread

the star midfielder of re al, itoshi sae, has a spotless reputation. there wasn't a single stain on his image, not one rumor or dating scandal. it was a matter of heated debate online; there were multiple twitter threads regarding sae's love life. was he truly single? perhaps not into women at all? did he have a secret relationship with another celebrity? if he did, he was remarkably good at never being caught.

so when a photograph of sae leading a girl to a secluded room, shot at an angle where one could only see a flash of glimmering hair, goes viral, the entire internet was wholly appalled.

sae scoffs as you read another article from your phone's news feed to him. "hey, look at this!" your tone is joking as you point towards the device's screen. "they're questioning if i'm some top hollywood celeb. is it because i dyed my hair recently?"

"love, that's stupid. you know dispatch reports more lies than truths." he replies, nose wrinkling at the thought. sure, you were beautiful, more so than any actress, but he really didn't enjoy all of the media speculation he received. was it so wrong of him to want something normal, to have a private relationship?

you'd known sae since before he went to spain, when you were just two simple kids trying to go through life the right way. when he had left, it'd caused a huge buzz in your town, japan finally receiving international attention for football. and you'd long since been regarded as sae's closest friend, so everyone was clamoring to ask you: would he ever come back? the drama queens threw their fits (sae had no shortage of admirers even then), many people called you a liar when you said that you didn't know, the pressure caused you to isolate yourself—done with how nosy the world was being. and of course, you missed sae more than anything. you'd mindlessly twist your fingers through the silver necklace he gifted you right before his flight, the 冴 character shining in the pale moonlight. no one else knew the words he'd suddenly whispered into your ears before he boarded without sparing a glance back; "i love you, i'll swear i'll see you again."

you'd kept that necklace for years, until itoshi sae appeared in japan once more, to play for a mysterious soccer match; and a front row ticket was mysteriously sent to your email. which you had never changed from before he left. nervous anticipation floods you, you were about to see your best friend who you hadn't heard from in years. when you finally spot him on the field, he looked nothing less than a daydream, dark pink locks impossibly perfect even against the wind and sweat. as he's being introduced, sae's gaze somehow found you amongst the crowd—you might have died. though he knew you would show up, he couldn't help but look for extra assurance. and you couldn't have predicted the whirl of events that happened after. his manager pulling you aside, saying that "itoshi sae needs to meet you," sae walking towards you with his head down, evidently trying to avoid the paparazzi, grabbing your hands and guiding you into an empty interviewing room; teal eyes glimmering with unsaid words.

your lips inevitably crashed into each other, you both had heard the cameras click and seen the flash of brilliant white, but none of you cared. "at least i did one thing right," is what sae had murmured after a few minutes, deft fingers tracing across your cheeks. his eyes flickered over the chain he gave you, one you'd never taken off. the media could call it what they wanted, because in that moment it was only you and sae. though perhaps it had always been that way—all it took was for one of you to see it.

a/n: dude i'm so obsessed w this song rn. also i finally stopped slandering sae who would've thought this day would come so soon!

masterlist.

theo nott goes down on you in public

warnings: 18+ smut, fingering, exhibitionism, praise, oral sex, mouth covering

word count: 900

summary: theo takes you to see a horror movie, but he decides the girl sitting next to him is far more interesting - based on this request

no one goes to see a horror movie at 10am on a monday, thats why you're there. the theater is nearly deserted, only two lone people near the front, lost in the glow of the screen. you’re tucked into the second last row at the back, perfectly shrouded by the dark.

“comfortable?” he murmurs, his lips brushing your temple, his breath warm against your skin. the movie plays on, muted in your mind, drowned out by the frantic thrum of your pulse.

the screen flickers over theo's sharp features, accentuating the shadows and contours of his face. on-screen, the hollywood actress stumbles down a dim hallway, her breath ragged as the sound of footsteps grows closer. a loud bang makes her scream as the music crescendos in warning. you barely flinch, not wanting to give theo the satisfaction of that trope.

theo’s hand lingers just above your knee, his thumb tracing lazy circles. his lips brush your ear, voice low and taunting. “i wonder what you’d look like like that.”

you tilt your head toward him, brow raised. "like what?"

he smirks. "panting. trembling. completely at my mercy."

you can't help but squeeze your legs together at the thought, something which doesn't go unnoticed by theo. theo’s sharp gaze flickers down to your skirt, which has ridden up your thighs from the pressure of your legs pressed tightly together. a knowing smirk curls at the corners of his mouth. he pretends not to notice, but the glint in his eyes tells you everything - he’s planning something.

theo wedges his hand between your tightly pressed thighs, prying them apart with a firm, deliberate touch. his fingers splay possessively, holding your legs open.

“this movie’s boring," he murmurs, his tone low and teasing. "i’ve got a much prettier girl right next to me... and I’d much rather watch her squirm” with a wink he continues to trail his hand up and down your inner thigh.

"here?" a surge of arousal pulses through you, your heart beat still racing at the thought of being caught

theo chuckles softly, his gaze locked onto yours. "why not?"

you glance nervously at the two figures in front, then back at him, your heart racing. “what if someone sees?”

“then they'll get their moneys worth from this shitty movie” he replies, placing one leg on each seat in front of you. with a quick flick of his fingers, he pulls your underwear to the side, and you gasp suddenly at the air grazing past your core. you want to care that you might get caught, but you can’t bring yourself to, not when you’re craving theo’s fingers this hard. theo kneels before your chair in between your legs. he leans in, his mouth closing over you with a slow, teasing pressure.

“mmm,” he murmurs against you, the sound vibrating through your core, making you moan softly. you bite your lip, trying to stifle any sounds that threaten to escape. his fingers explore your wetness, curling inside you while his mouth continues to suckle and tease. over theo's head you can see a couple fucking on-screen, completely unaware of the killer lurking just beyond the door. the combination of sensations makes your head spin, your body arching toward him instinctively. you can feel every flick of his tongue, every gentle thrust of his fingers sending shockwaves through your body.

as if sensing your need for more, theo uses his free hand to lift your top, exposing your breasts. as he lifts his head from between your legs to focus on your nipples, you let out a quiet, disappointed groan. you feel him smirk against you as his tongue swirls around a nipple before he begins to gently suck and bite; his other fingers continue to pump in and out of you, curling to hit that sweet spot with every thrust.

“god, theo,” you breathe, your voice barely a whisper as you feel the pressure building inside you. he responds with a low growl, "i told you to be quiet" and stops playing with your nipples to cover your mouth.

you moan into his hand as his fingers continue their relentless pace, pumping deep inside you with a perfect rhythm as his thumb deftly finds your clit, rubbing in tight circles. he leans down, his lips brushing against your ear, making sure his hand stays firmly over your mouth.

"never forget, principessa, I can make you fall apart anytime, anywhere."

and with those words, pleasure coils tightly within you. you squeeze your eyes shut, overwhelmed by the sensations as you finally let go, waves of ecstasy crashing over you, your body shaking as you come hard around his fingers.

“good girl,” he murmurs, his voice low and sultry, the praise igniting another wave of heat deep within you. you can feel your walls fluttering around his fingers as he slowly helps you ride out your orgasm.

you manage to sit through the rest of the movie, but it’s nearly impossible to concentrate. the film's tension-filled scenes play out in front of you, but your gaze drifts to theo, who appears perfectly composed, an impish smile playing at the corners of his lips. your mind races with thoughts of how to repay theo for what he’s done. specifically, while he's driving the car on the way home.

reblogs are feedback are super appreciated

idk how to feel about this!! but omg did i just set myself up for a part two?!

thank you so so much to @slytherin-princess-x for the amazing idea, this was so fun to write! <3

➴ SCANDALS TO SCRIPT IN YOUR DR .ᐟ

for @deminetly <3

“Accidental” Drug Controversy

You’re photographed holding a cigarette, but because of the angle, it looks like you’re smoking something much stronger (weed). The internet explodes, debating whether you’re a secret drug user. Even after clarifying the misunderstanding, the photo becomes a meme, and people keep joking that you’re a “bad influence.”

 The Award Show Scowl

An extremely controversial celebrity wins Entertainer of the Year, and instead of clapping, you sip your drink with the most unimpressed look ever. The clip goes viral, turning you into a symbol of silent protest—some fans love you for it, while others accuse you of being rude and “unprofessional.”

“Crying at the Club” Conspiracy

You’re spotted leaving a club with smudged mascara and looking visibly upset. Paparazzi claim you were crying over an ex or a failed project, and suddenly tabloids are running with a story about your “downward spiral.” The truth? You just got something in your eye or maybe you saw a sad cat video lmao idk.

The “Ego Problem” Rumors

A leaked voice memo allegedly captures you getting frustrated with your team over something minor, but because of the way it’s edited, it makes you sound entitled. The internet drags you for being a diva, and now you have to navigate a PR nightmare.

The “I Thought That Mic Was Off” Scandal

During an event, a hot mic picks up you making a sarcastic comment about another celebrity, something subtle like “Wow, I bet that award was totally earned”. Even though it was clearly a joke, the internet explodes, accusing you of being bitter and secretly hating that person. Fans start dissecting every interaction you’ve ever had with them.

The “Fake Friendship” Revelation

You and another celebrity are known for having a super close friendship online, always hyping each other up. But then, a private DM leaks where you subtly shade them, saying something like “I wish people would stop comparing me to them…”. Now fans are convinced your whole friendship was fake, and both of you have to awkwardly address the drama.

The “Ghostwriting” Accusation

You’ve always been credited for writing your own music/books/content, but suddenly, an anonymous source claims that you actually use ghostwriters. Even though you deny it, people start analyzing your past work, trying to find “proof” that your writing style suddenly changed. Some fans believe you, others are completely convinced you’ve been lying this whole time.

The “Cancelled for Being Rude” Clip

A fan tries to approach you in public while you’re visibly exhausted, and you politely decline a photo. However, the clip is cut in a way that makes it look like you rudely ignored them. The internet starts debating whether you’re “rude to fans” or if people just need to respect your boundaries.

The “Accidental Blacklist”

You make an offhanded comment in an interview about how a certain director/artist isn’t your favorite. Somehow, it gets blown out of proportion, and now there are rumors that Hollywood executives are blacklisting you for being “disrespectful.” Meanwhile, you’re just as confused as everyone else.

The “Accidental PR Stunt”

A “leaked” paparazzi photo of you and a co-star in an almost romantic moment goes viral. Fans start shipping you two hard, and suddenly, everyone is convinced you’re dating. The issue? It was just a totally innocent moment—but now your management is pressuring you to “play along” for the publicity.

The “Ex’s New Partner Is a Fan” Drama

Your ex’s new partner is exposed for being a huge fan of you before they got together. Old tweets surface where they called you “the best” and even thirsted over you. Now people are accusing them of only dating your ex to get close to you.

The “Secret Child” Conspiracy

A blurry photo of you holding a baby (your niece/nephew) spreads online, and since the child kind of looks like you, fans become convinced that you secretly had a child and hid it from the public. Suddenly, there are full Reddit threads trying to piece together a nonexistent pregnancy timeline.

The “You Stole That Role” Scandal

You land a major role in a film, but an unknown actor comes forward claiming that they were originally supposed to get it. They go on a podcast and hint that “a bigger name stole their opportunity.” People start attacking you online, even though you had nothing to do with the casting process.

The “Not Clapping for a Legend” Moment

At an awards show, a legendary performer receives a Lifetime Achievement Award, and when the camera cuts to you, you’re not clapping—but only because you were fixing your outfit or checking your phone. People take it as a sign of “disrespect,” and now the media is painting you as someone who “hates legends.”

The “Shady Album Title” Drama

You drop an album, and fans immediately assume it’s about your ex—even though it’s not. One song in particular has a super vague lyric about betrayal, and now the internet is convinced that you’re throwing major shade. Meanwhile, the song was actually about a completely different situation.

The “Underwhelming Met Gala Look” Controversy

You show up to the Met Gala in a look that’s… kind of boring compared to the extreme outfits. Even though you look stunning, fashion critics start saying you “didn’t understand the assignment,” while fans start defending you. Memes start flying about how you were “too cool to try.”

The “Fake Crying” Accusation

You get emotional during an interview and shed a few tears while talking about a personal struggle. However, some people online insist that you were “faking it for sympathy.” The moment becomes a meme, and now people are debating whether you’re “manipulative” or just a human being with emotions.

The “Rude to Staff” Rumors

A random restaurant worker claims you were rude to them when you came in for dinner. They post a vague TikTok saying, “I met a certain celeb today… and let’s just say, my opinion has changed.” The internet immediately assumes it’s about you, and now everyone is calling you a diva—even though the story is completely unverified.

The “Messy Love Triangle” Theory

A totally innocent photo of you standing next to two famous exes (who are also your friends) goes viral. People start spinning a wild theory that you’re involved in a love triangle with them. The photo is analyzed to death, with people zooming in on facial expressions and body language to “prove” something’s going on.

The “Shady Interview Moment”

During a group interview, another celeb interrupts you while you’re speaking, and you subtly side-eye them. Someone GIFs the moment, and now fans are convinced that you hate that person. Meanwhile, you were just reacting naturally.

The “Wardrobe Malfunction” Incident

During a red carpet event, a slight wardrobe malfunction happens—maybe your zipper breaks or your dress shifts awkwardly. Even though it’s a minor issue, the media blows it up into a whole scandal, with people debating whether you “handled it gracefully” or if it was “embarrassing.”

The “Disastrous Livestream”

You go live on Instagram or TikTok, but the internet connection is awful. The lag makes you sound uninterested, and at one point, you accidentally ignore a fan’s question. People take it as you being rude, and now there are TikToks about how you “hate your fans.”

The “Embarrassing Drunk Moment” Goes Viral

You go out partying and harmlessly have a little too much to drink. Someone films you slightly stumbling out of a club, and the internet suddenly paints you as a total druggie mess. Even though you were just having fun, tabloids run with the headline: “Is [Your Name] Spiraling Out of Control?” or "is [your name] promoting drug use?"

The “Ignored Fan Gift” Controversy

A fan hands you a gift at a meet-and-greet, and while you do thank them, a clip is edited to make it look like you just tossed it aside. Now people are saying you’re “ungrateful,” and fans start bringing up old interviews to analyze whether you’ve always been rude to fans.

The “Horrible First Pitch” Humiliation

You get invited to throw the first pitch at a baseball game, but it goes horribly wrong—like, it doesn’t even reach home plate. The clip goes viral, and suddenly, sports fans and Twitter trolls are roasting you for days. Memes of your pitch circulate for months.

The “I Don’t Know Them” Scandal

During an interview, you’re asked about a fellow celebrity, and you casually say, “Oh, I don’t really know much about them.” The internet immediately twists it into shade, and now people think you hate that celebrity—even though you were literally just being honest.

The “Is That a Hickey?” Speculation

A paparazzi photo shows you with a mysterious red mark on your neck. Even though it’s literally just a rash, a scratch, or a makeup smudge, fans go crazy trying to figure out who gave you a hickey. Dating rumors skyrocket, and suddenly, you’re being linked to multiple celebrities.

The “Accidentally Flashing the Audience” Mishap

During a live performance, your outfit malfunctions, revealing a little too much. Even though you recover quickly, the moment is screenshotted, memed, and turned into a whole discourse about fashion mishaps. Some people sympathize with you, while others turn it into unnecessary drama.

The “You Changed” Debate

A fan account makes a side-by-side video comparing your older interviews to your recent ones, claiming you used to be so different. Maybe you were more goofy back then or had a different way of talking. Suddenly, people start arguing about whether you’ve “lost yourself” or just matured.

The “Lip Sync” Controversy

You perform at a huge event, and one clip surfaces where your lips barely go out of sync with the track. Even though it was just a technical issue, people immediately start accusing you of lip-syncing your whole performance. Now you have to prove you can actually sing live.

The “Flirting With Someone Else’s Partner” Scandal

You’re spotted laughing and playfully touching the arm of someone who happens to be dating a famous celebrity. Even though it was completely innocent, people immediately assume you’re trying to steal them, and now their fans despise you.

The “Secret Beef Exposed” Podcast Moment

A podcast host randomly brings up your name, and their guest (who you barely know) shadily says, “Let’s just say… I have my thoughts on them.” That one vague comment turns into a full-blown theory that you and that person have secret beef, even though you’ve literally never interacted.

The “Bestie Turned Enemy” Scandal

You and another celebrity were inseparable, but suddenly, you stop posting each other or hanging out publicly. Fans notice immediately and start digging for clues. Every minor action—an unfollow, a liked tweet, an interview quote—is used as “proof” that you had a messy falling out.

The “Did They Steal That?” Drama

You release a song, a fashion line, or a new creative project, and a smaller artist accuses you of copying them. Even though it’s just a coincidence, fans start comparing timestamps and suddenly, there’s a full online war about whether you “stole” their idea.

The “Rude to the Waitstaff” Accusation

A random restaurant worker posts on Reddit claiming that you were “kind of rude” when you came in. Even though they don’t provide any proof, the internet immediately believes them, and now people are saying you’re “awful to service workers.”

The “Shady Emoji” Disaster

You comment a single, harmless emoji (like a “🙃” or “👀”) under someone’s post, and fans freak out, assuming it’s major shade. The post in question? Something completely unrelated, but now you’re in a feud you never meant to start.

The “They Left Their Group Chat” Scandal

A fan group chat dedicated to you randomly notices that your account left. Even though it was probably an accident, rumors spread that you secretly hate your fans, and now you’re being dragged for being ungrateful.

The “Refusing to Take a Picture” Scandal

A fan catches you in public on your day off and asks for a picture. You kindly say “Not right now”, but they secretly record the moment and post it online, claiming you were “rude and dismissive.” The internet immediately picks sides, with some defending your boundaries and others calling you a diva.

The “Blocked by a Celebrity” Theory

Fans notice that a famous celebrity has blocked you on social media, even though you’ve never publicly interacted. Now people start speculating that something major happened behind the scenes, and you’re being blacklisted.

The “Mysterious Injuries” Conspiracy

You show up to an event with a small bruise or scratch, and instead of assuming it was from something harmless, fans start spiraling into wild theories. Did you get in a fight? Were you involved in an accident you’re hiding?

The “Wrong Place, Wrong Time” Moment

You’re randomly spotted at an event or dinner with a controversial person, and even though it was just a coincidence, people assume you’re friends with them. Now you’re being dragged for associating with problematic people.

The “Accidental Diss Track” Misunderstanding

You drop a song, and fans immediately assume that one lyric is a direct dig at another celebrity—even though you weren’t thinking of them at all. Now people are begging for a response, and the celebrity subtly addresses it, making things even worse.

The “Hidden Drug Stash” Scandal

In this scandal, you're staying at a luxury hotel when police raid your suite after an anonymous tip-off, claiming to find illegal substances in the room's safe. The media explodes with headlines accusing you of possession, despite your insistence of innocence. A paparazzi photo of you looking stressed is used as "proof" of guilt, dividing fans on whether it's a setup or a secret double life.

An "insider" claims to have partied with you before, adding fuel to the fire. Old clips of you looking tired are dug up as "evidence" of substance use. A celebrity friend who was with you that night is also dragged into the scandal, forced to publicly deny involvement.

Tommy can remember the day he knew he was going to kill Vincent Gerrard. Or, not kill exactly, but do some serious, irreparable damage to him. He'd kind of figured this day would come, if the way he felt like ripping the old man's mustache right off his face whenever Buck came home upset was anything to go by. He just didn't think it would happen quite so soon. He's held Buck plenty of times after rough shifts, where Gerrard would make him man behind for no other reason than "I want this place clean and perfectly organized. That's what you people do, isn't it?". He's heard enough stories from Eddie, and Hen, and Chim, about the abuse they were all getting but how most of Gerrard's hellfire seemed directed towards Buck.

But nothing could prepare him for the fury he felt when that day arrived.

He'd gotten a text from Eddie, a short and simple "he needs you", and he'd been in his car in a flash. The whole drive he'd been worrying, not sure what he'd be arriving to.

When he gets there, he knows it’s bad. Hen and Chimney are locked in a furious screaming match with Gerrard, their faces all varying shades of puce, and it looks like Hen's about to punch Gerrard in the nose, based off the hand Chimney has wrapped tightly around her wrist.

He spots Eddie and Buck immediately; they're in the locker room and Eddie has his arm around Buck's shoulders. When he looks up and locks eyes with Tommy, he can see the flames of rage licking behind Eddie's eyes. Buck's got his face in his hands, and his shoulders are shaking in a way that tells Tommy that he's crying. Tommy's across the station in 3 quick strides, dropping to his knees in front of Buck and taking his face in his hands, stroking his thumbs over his cheekbones.

"What the hell happened?" he asks Eddie, because Buck's not in any shape to breathe right now, let alone talk.

Eddie doesn't reply immediately, but his jaw ticks and he looks like he's carefully picking his words. Just as he's about to speak, Buck's voice, quiet and broken, cuts through the silence.

"He made me watch."

Tommy's brow furrows in confusion, and a ball of dread settles in the pit of his stomach. Buck swallows convulsively and even Eddie looks like he might throw up. It's bad.

"Watch what?" Tommy asks carefully. He doesn't want to push it, not if Buck isn't up to speaking, but he needs to know.

Eddie speaks up first, and his voice is shaky too.

"We were called to a massive haemorrhage at the Pride Event in West Hollywood. A man and his husband had been attacked by one of those bible bashers that stand there and tell everyone they're going to hell. A bystander said they'd been arguing with him and he pulled a knife. Got the first guy in the stomach, second just above his heart. There was nothing we could do."

Buck takes a deep breath, a whine issuing from the back of his throat. Tommy puts a hand around the back of his neck and rubs soothing circles just below his hairline.

"He made me watch," Buck repeats again, a little louder this time, and Tommy's heart clenches cause he knows, he fucking knows what Buck is going to say next. "He said "ride with Wilson, Buckley. This is a good opportunity for you to increase your medic skills." He knew they weren't going to survive but he made me...." Buck trails off, unable to finish his sentence, and Tommy's vision goes red. He's never hated anyone more than he hates Gerrard right now.

That is, until Buck finishes his sentence.

"He said "you might learn something valuable," but he wasn't talking about the job."

Buck's fists are clenched so tight his knuckles are white, and there's blood under his fingernails. Eddie's got a fistful of Buck's shirt clenched tightly in his fist and he looks like he's doing all he can to not run upstairs and tear Gerrard limb from limb.

There's a ringing in Tommy's ears and everything sounds kind of muffled, like his head is underwater. He's clutching the back of Buck's neck so hard that it's got to be painful, but he can't make himself let go.

When he left the military, Tommy made a vow that he would never take another man's life. But for this - for Gerrard - for what he did to Buck, the light of Tommy's life, he might just make an exception.

Lorraine Baines McFly and Female Autonomy

Hello. I have spent the past month slowly losing my mind about Lorraine Baines McFly, Marty's mom in Back to the Future, so I am finally trying to articulate some of the reasons I'm so feral about her.

There's a quote from Lea Thompson, the actress who played Lorraine, that goes, "The three parts that women usually get to play are virgins, whores, and mothers, and in Back to the Future Part II, I got to play all three." While this is commentary on Hollywood and the limited roles that fictional women get forced into, I think it's also interesting to think about it in terms of how these roles are reflected onto actual women and used to limit their personhood and confine them to a very narrow range of acceptable behaviors . . . and then in turn to think about how the character interacts with these roles on a Watsonian level. They're affecting not just Lorraine the character as she was written, but Lorraine from an in-universe perspective trying to navigate life as a woman in a patriarchal world. Some of the sexism she faces is a deliberate narrative choice and some of it is a result of the writers' blind spots, but for the purpose of this essay I'm less interested in teasing out which threads are which and more in looking at it holistically.

Because the thing about Lorraine is that she's aware of what the acceptable roles and behaviors for women are, and the versions that we see of her across the various timelines alternately fight against and capitulate to these constraints. What is a woman allowed to be? How much is Lorraine willing to break from those restrictions? How much does she allow other women to break from them? Does she resent her role or embrace it? I have a lot of thoughts specifically about how the different iterations of her interact with concepts of female agency and autonomy.

(Putting this under a cut because it is. Long.)

I started thinking about this when I was talking with my partner about 50's Lorraine. She's extremely active and driven and planning to Get What She Wants (in a way that is very scary, if you are Marty) . . . but at the same time she's clearly aware that she isn't supposed to be. A Good Fifties Girl is demure and passive. Lorraine isn't--but she's still trying to toe the line. I think constantly about the scene where she shows up at Doc's garage to be like "I followed you home . . . so that I can ask you to ask me to the dance." The girl can embrace borderline stalking but she draws the line at directly asking a boy out! She's exercising a lot of agency but views doing so as rebellious and subversive--and risky.

And I also want to talk about the whole "boy crazy" thing because like . . . society (especially in the fifties) tells women that the most important thing they can possibly do is find a good man and become wives and mothers, that this will define the success or failure of their entire lives (and given how many things were unavailable to single women at the time this is in many ways true) . . . and then relentlessly mocks and punishes anyone who actually takes an interest in pursuing this instead of just sitting back passively and waiting. She is trying to do what society says will make her happy! And even her desire for a white knight is very much based in the reality of her situation! She's getting sexually harassed at school and around town and she's doing exactly what she's supposed to and standing up for herself and saying no and fighting back--and this is not enough. She does need backup! Biff harasses her in the middle of a crowded cafeteria and Marty is the ONLY person who does anything! No fucking wonder she latches onto him as hard as she does! (There's. I promise this is related but there's a BttF parody musical on YouTube where when Strickland comes to break up the lunchroom fight he says, "Now, I can excuse sexual harassment, but LIGHT SHOVING?" and like it's a haha funny joke but also?? Yeah?? That IS how it works. The way Lorraine's being treated is so overlooked and normalized that the authority figure isn't going to step up the way he will when it's a physical altercation between two guys. Screams.) I wonder if part of the reason she stuck with George in the original timeline even though they didn't have a lot in common is that "I have a boyfriend" is a boundary that some people might actually take seriously whereas "I'm not interested" is not.

But. In general 50's Lorraine is very much about grabbing as much agency as she feels she's allowed to . . . and then Twin Pines Lorraine is what happens when she regrets the result of those choices (because while we don't see it, it's pretty obvious that in the original timeline she pursued George as aggressively as she pursues Marty in the new one), and so she decides to deny, not just her own agency, but female agency as a general concept. She leans so heavily on the idea that her relationship was "meant to be" because it absolves her of any culpability in creating a life she's unhappy with. She's rewritten her own past to view herself as a passive participant in something inevitable. (Exactly the view of womanhood that she was fighting so hard against in the 50's!) And she extends this idea of female passivity to the women around her: telling Linda that she should sit back and wait and a relationship will "just happen," actively resenting Jennifer for doing something as simple as calling Marty on the phone. It's a really interesting form of internalized misogyny, perpetuating these sexist ideas as almost a misguided form of self-defense.

And then for Lone Pine Lorraine this is completely flipped! She loves Jennifer for the same reason she disliked her in Twin Pines: because she reminds Lorraine of her younger self. And like . . . this is something of an extrapolation, but while obviously her husband and kids are still very important to her, it also feels like she has interests and friends and other things going on in her life, whereas part of the isolation of Twin Pines is that her life has shrunk down to the point where she's ONLY a wife and mother with nothing else to define herself by. And it also matters that in this timeline she has a partner that supports her, not just in the big dramatic moments (although also that), but you can easily see the dance as a catalyst for George actually learning to listen to her and stand up for her about smaller things as well. George McFly feminism arc. (I'm being slightly facetious but like. George starts off kind of shitty. The spying is actively Bad and I hope Marty chewed him out for it offscreen, but also his reaction to the harassment scene being "I think there's someone else she'd rather go with," implying that he sees what Biff is doing as like. Normal flirting that he expects to work. He doesn't GET it. Unsurprising because he is. A teenage boy in the fifties. But I do believe that saving Lorraine was something of a wakeup call and after that he listened to her about things that make her uncomfortable and gave her the support that she needed. Which would also give her a lot more freedom in this timeline because she has someone with more societal power who has her back!)

And then. Hell Valley.

If Lone Pine is the version of Lorraine who has the most freedom, the most opportunities to make decisions based on what she wants instead of What Is Expected Of A Woman, Hell Valley is the opposite. The things denying her agency in Twin Pines is largely societal forces (and herself); in Hell Valley she is actively being denied autonomy by her evil husband who functions as the personification of a bunch of sexist ideas.

She's been objectified to the point that she doesn't maintain control over her own body; Biff pressures her to get cosmetic surgeries so she can continue to look attractive to him because that's the only value he sees in her. Her physical appearance is entirely tailored to his preferences.

Biff's view of Lorraine is wife-as-possession. He treats her like a prize he's won and her kids like parasites. And he is NOT subtle about this. But Lorraine is still desperately clinging to the idea that she's wife-as-family. She calls Biff "your father" to Marty when he arrives, and talks about "our children" because she wants so so badly for this to be something different than what it is. It's especially terrible because this is a timeline where she got seventeen years of being happy with George, she knows what she's missing, and she keeps trying to force this new relationship into a similar mold even though Biff is openly contemptuous of her and especially her kids. It's been twelve years and she's still trying to pretend. To call back to that Lea Thompson quote: it's obvious where Biff thinks Lorraine fits on the virgin-mother-whore axis, while Lorraine is actively trying to centralize her motherhood partially because the kids really are that important to her and partially as a defense mechanism.

(And it's also such a bleak cautionary tale about how fragile women's stability can be when they're dependent on their husbands; Lorraine was happy with George and had a fair amount of freedom, but he was the only one with an income so when he died she was suddenly forced into a truly horrific situation because she had no other means to support herself and her three young children. Especially given that the Hell Valley universe is also worse in some broader political ways that mean there were probably even fewer social supports available than in real life 1973)

And god. It kills me the way that we see her lash out, the way she's clawing for autonomy when she threatens to leave . . . and then exactly how Biff levels all his axes of control against her. It's very interesting that his first tactic is consumerist (Who will pay for all your things? Who will take care of you?) and that doesn't work even though not being able to support herself is a very real concern. It's only when he threatens her kids that she folds. And then she immediately crumples and pivots to rationalizing Biff's behavior and blaming herself for her own abuse (in a way that is both HEARTBREAKING and also? surprisingly sympathetic and realistic for an 80's movie?). It's similar to the passivity we see in Twin Pines, but here we see exactly where it comes from. She doesn't have any way out so she has to pretend. It's the only way she can keep going. She has these flashes of rage but they're immediately snuffed out by despair and denial.

There's not a lot of talk about Lorraine and what there is tends to reduce her to "well she's Marty's mom" as if she's a boring character who doesn't have a lot going on. But even though most of her role in the movies has to do with her relationships with the various men in her life, those relationships are really interesting if you actually pay attention to them! She's not just (in the 80's) a wife and mother--she's someone who has a complex relationship with marriage and motherhood and the societal expectations surrounding them. She's not just (in the 50's) a vapid boy-crazy girl--she's doing her best to go after what she wants in a world that doesn't want her to (the fact that one of the things she wants turns out to be her time-traveling son from the future is unfortunate but not something she has any way of knowing!). She's stuck in a society that doesn't want women to be people, and she knows this, and because we see her across two different time periods and three different timelines you can watch how sometimes society grinds her down until she gives in and tries not to be a person. And also how, sometimes, she fights back.

𝐅𝐎𝐔𝐑 - 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐅𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃

Lando woke up a little lost the following morning. His cheek was pressed to the top of Y/N's head and his arms were loosely still around her waist. She was still deep into sleep when he opened his eyes. Too afraid to wake her up and having to face an awkward conversation, he stood very still, taking the first minutes of his day to look at her and think.

Whatever happened between them yesterday was weird, to say the least. People don't simply go from hating each other to being vulnerable and sharing a bed in a matter of hours. He didn't know what had got into them and it scared him how much he enjoyed the moments they shared the previous night. It scared him how good it felt to be vulnerable to her. And the feeling he got on his chest every time he looked at her was the most terrifying of them all.

Feeling a clench on his chest, Lando carefully slipped out of bed and changed into fresh clothes, did his entire morning routine and, in less than 15 minutes later, he was downstairs in the restaurant for some breakfast. Since it was so early, and everyone was still tired from the weekend, he managed to sit alone and think. The last thing he needed was company.

Eventually, the hotel started to get crowded, and a few fans were starting to recognize him among the people at the restaurant. Feeling cranky, he thought it was best for him to go back to his room and get ready for his flight later that day. Zak had already texted him, saying he hoped to have a meeting on the flight. So he needed to rest his mind.

Lando hadn't decided how to behave around Y/N yet. She was woken up by the time he arrived, but was having a shower while he was gone. He packed everything he needed while she kept the bathroom busy. She only came out ten minutes later, dressed in comfortable clothes for the flight.

“Good morning”, she opened a small smile for Lando, who didn't retribute it. 

“Morning”, he mumbled, taking his needed things for a shower.

Y/N was surprised with his behaviour, but decided not to comment on it. Who the fuck goes from cuddling to no reaction in only a few hours? Only someone as complicated as Lando Norris. 

“At what time we'll be leaving?”, she ignored how he acted and decided to act just as cold.

“We have to be at the airport at one”, he said and Y/N only nodded to his response.

But she just couldn't help herself. “Are you alright?”

“Yeah. Fine”, he shrugged before locking himself in the bathroom.

The rest of the trip was exactly like that. Y/N only heard Lando's voice when necessary. He only shifted his mood during the meeting he had with Zak on the plane. Not very interested in talking about racing, she chose to put on her earpods and drift away into music.

They only met again a week later, when Y/N was invited to attend the Cannes Film Festival. To not make it seem like their relationship was one-sided, they took advantage that his off weekend was supposed to be during the event. Lando met her in France, where they had booked a suite with two rooms this time, so they would only have to meet in common areas such as the living and dining room. 

What surprised Y/N was that Lando was back to his asshole behaviour once again.

“You never, ever shut up, do you?”, he sighed, taking a spot on the living room's couch.

"I'm just saying that we're late for a brunch and you're fucking sitting down, Norris", she folded her arms and puffed her chest, making sure he knew how upset she was.

"I'm not required to be at this brunch. Just need to be with you at the red carpet", Lando put his feet up on the coffee table and turned the TV on, pretending not to care. Y/N promptly removed his feet from the table.

“What the fuck is wrong with you? I literally always go out of my schedule, fly out away from home, just to be at your goddamn work events, and you can't do the same for me?”

"We're not a real couple, Y/N. I don't know if you realized that", Lando squinted his eyes as he spat out the words. Words to which were daggers right across her chest.

She didn't know why it pained her so much to hear those words; to see how aggressive he was behaving. That was not the same Lando that a week ago begged for her to comfort him and pulled her closer before falling asleep. He wasn't the bubbly and happy Lando Norris she saw on track.

Trying to fight back some tears, Y/N turned her back and retreated to her room. “You do you, Norris. I'm gonna finish getting ready because, contrary to you, I care about my career”.

She had to fight really hard to not call his PR team and call this whole thing off. Lando wasn't committing to his part of the agreement, so she didn't feel like it was fair. But she washed her face, took a deep breath and got ready for brunch. By the time she was out the room, Lando was waiting dressed in a linen button up and short's, perfect for a casual spring day.

Y/N didn't say anything and carried on her way out, him right behind her. When they got to the hotel lobby, they put on their little show, with his hand on the small of her back and opening doors for her. Later that day on the internet, people were melting with the pictures of them in line for brunch, with the sweet kisses being shared between them.

But the real commotion came on the next day, when they attended a Martin Scorsese film premiere, looking like the hottest couple in Cannes. Lando dressed up in a beautiful and classic black suit, while Y/N chose a draped baby pink dress that made her feel like a goddess. When she came out of her room after hours with stylists, makeup artists and hairdressers, Lando felt the air being knocked out of his lungs and he did his best at pretending not to care.

Their fans, on the other hand, cared too much. Their names climbed up to worldwide trending topics; their picture on the red was all over Instagram. People loved how amazing they looked together. Lando and VN really could be a breathtaking couple if they were actually together. It was the perfect combo: the rising star and the sunshine athletic boy.

“A match made in hell”, he whispered in her ear as all the cameras blinded them with the flashes.

"I fucking hate you", she whispered back, and Lando felt like those words were a stab right in his chest.

Of course he knew Y/N hated him. He himself has made sure those feelings were known. But this is the first time he's heard it since the night they shared in Miami. Why does he now care that she hates him?

The words flowed so easily out of her mouth. She was angry at him. Absolutely livid by his behaviour on the previous day, or the fact that he simply pretended the last grand prix didn't happen. So if Lando was going to be petty, two can play this game.

The entire night was filled with snarky comments. Lando made sure to show how he wasn't enjoying the premiere, and Y/N had a comment for every comma that came out of his mouth. She could say anything to try pissing him off. What was making Lando angry, on the other hand, was seeing other men looking her up and down, just like a piece of meat. Didn't they have anything else better to do?

After Y/N spent good ten minutes talking to a very hot model, who was flirting with her the whole time, Lando gave up on waiting for him to leave and approached them, letting his hand go around her waist, securing her close to his body.

“Jesus, don't they realize you're taken?”, Lando mumbled, as he frowned at the model, now long gone.

"I thought we weren't a real couple. So there's nothing wrong with other men flirting with me", she provoked, feeling his fingers tighten around her waist.

“There is when, publicly, you're still mine. Or don’t you remember my one and only rule?”, you could see the red creeping up his neck. Was he actually jealous? It can't be.

“You really are a book I can't read”, she sighed, making an exit towards the theatre where the movie would be exhibited.

Thank God for long movies, because they wouldn't have to listen to each other's voices for three hours. But after a standing ovation once the credit's started rolling up, Y/N proceeded to try talking to as many people as she could at the cocktail party after the session. At the end of the day, she had talked to really important directors and producers, who in the future might think of her while doing a new project.

Lando, on the other hand, stood by her side and looked bored. He hated the film, thinking it was too conceptual for his liking, not to mention too long for a fucking boring plot. Y/N was getting angry at his behaviour and was making their deal go through the sky.

“I swear to God, if you keeping doing this, I'll call our team and end this whole fucking thing”, she complained, making him roll his eyes.

“Fuck off, you're still full on flirting with other men in front of me. I'm not the only one fucking this agreement”, by that time, they were alone in a secluded area of the party.

“What the fuck is wrong with you? Norris, I'm working, not flirting, for fuck’s sake. This is the same thing as talking to sponsors. I'm not fucking flirting with any of them”, she was visibly angry at his behaviour.

“Well, it doesn't look like it”.

The fight was taken back to their hotel room and they did their best to make their discussion go unnoticed by other people. But once the doors were closed, they fought like they were married with children.

“This is disrespectful”, Lando shot when they brought up the men she talked to through the night.

“It's work, Norris. I don't know why you're so fucking jealous”.

“Because, we're in a goddamn relationship, Y/N. You can't go out all flirting with other men”.

“You said yourself we weren't in a real relationship. So why are you so jealous?”

“I'm not”, he reaffirmed, making her chuckle.

“Prove it”, she crossed her arms and daringly arched her brows.

She made every molecule of his body agitated. Once, Lando thought it was anger, for all the times they fought without having a reason and all the days she behaved like a brat, making his blood boil under his skin. Now, after the crash and the moment they shared in that tiny driver’s room, he wasn’t so sure anymore. 

He was furious; absolutely livid, without knowing exactly what he wanted. Normally, Lando is a very decisive man. But when it came to Y/N, things were just a mess in his head. And right now, looking at her with her arched brows and folded arms, almost daring him to explode at her, he knew that there was only one thing he could do to end up with the fire that was consuming him.

The next second, Lando had his lips on Y/N, furiously attacking them in the neediest kiss of all time. She was taken by surprise and actually had to wait a few seconds to reciprocate anything. She had that look on her face, provoking him into the edge, waiting for a shout that would give her a single reason to hate him. Now he’s got her on the hook and there was no way to run. Actually, Y/N didn’t actually want to run anyway.

Lando had pressed her against the wall, a leg right between her thighs, keeping them apart and their bodies close. He had a hand around her neck, and another one on her hips, securing her against the wall. The pressure he put on her throat felt delicious. No one had ever held her like that before. Her panty was soaking wet not even two seconds later.

It only felt better when he moved his kisses down, trailing them to her neck. His lips sucked on her sweet spot, right under her ear, making her moan with the hot sensation over her skin. Also, if she wasn’t turned on at that point, feeling Lando’s hard on her thigh absolutely did the job. And if he was playing a game, she knew how to dance around it as well. Quickly, one of her hands was palming him over his trousers. He moved back to her mouth, kissing her as if his life depended on it, and biting her bottom lip when the pleasure got too much for him.

“Stop it”, he moaned against her lips, making her smile. “You can only touch me when I say you can touch me”.

“Bullshit”, she dared. “Look at you, Lando. You can’t get enough of my touches. I know you want them all”.

“Fucking…”, Lando removed his knee from between her legs and helped her kneel on the ground right in front of him. He leaned forward and softly landed his hand on her chin, making Y/N look up. She tried to put her best innocent look and he was absolutely done for her. “Open your mouth, baby”.

Y/N opened her mouth for just a little bit, and Lando slipped his thumb in so she could suck on it. Then after a while, he replaced it with his middle and index finger, going in deeper and making her almost gag on his hands. Tired of playing games, he kneeled as well, levelling their eyes, before letting his hand travel to the zip on her back.

“Come on, pretty girl. I want to see you”, he left a few soft kisses on her cheek and daringly opened the zip. “Can I take this off?”, she nodded, but Lando wasn’t satisfied. “I need to hear you say the words”.

“Yes, please”, she pleaded and soon her dress was on the floor, exposing her bare tits from the lack of bra and lacy black thong. Lando didn’t waste a second before dipping his head into her nipples, sucking, biting and playing with both of them. Y/N was a moaning mess in second, pulling his head closer to her body as she felt fantastic with just his lips on her nipples. “Lan, oh my God. Please, I wanna feel you”.

“You misbehaved”, he smirked, getting away from her tits to undo his belt. “I told you not to touch me and just wait. Now, if you wanna touch me, you better open up”.

He quickly lowered his trousers along with his underwear and his hard cock came hard, slapping on his stomach. Lando was sure he could die happily at the sight of Y/N’s eyes brightening and her mouth automatically opening wider for him. “Good girl”, he praised, taking her face by the chin and bringing his cock to her lips.

Y/N’s mouth felt so warm and amazing; Lando was losing it. He started trusting his hips into her face, making his dick go deeper in her throat and her gagging sending delicious vibrations up his body. He was surprised when one of her hands grabbed his balls and massaged them, sending him over the edge just quick enough. He had to pull away before coming on her throat. Y/N pouted in the absence of his cock, still being attached to it by a string of spit and pre-cum. Lando used one of his hands to wipe it off before kissing her again.

“Baby girl, I need to last longer, and you’re not helping at all”, he whispered on her lips once again, making Y/N giggle. What she wasn’t expecting, though, was a hand sneaking into her pussy, his middle finger gathering the juices pooling on her panty. She let an audible moan out, making him know how much she was enjoying that. “Do you want my fingers?”

“Yes”, she breathed out and Lando picked her from the floor, quickly taking her to bed, where they could get more comfortable. He slowly removed her underwear and tossed it around the room, the place getting filled with her glorious smell. 

“Spread your legs wider, love”, Lando commanded and she immediately responded. “Good, just like that”. Y/N was going feral with the praise, and he got it right away. “You have a praise kink, pretty girl? Oh, that’s so sweet”.

Now that he knew that, Lando was going to put that information to use. He went back to her mouth though, this time slowing down the pace of her kiss, but the intensity was just like before. As much as he wanted to jump right in and just fuck the shit out of her, he would do anything to make this last for as long as he could. “If I am to have her for only one night, I want it to be unforgettable”, he thought.

Y/N was drunk on his kisses; feeling her soaking wet core brushing on his bare thigh and his tongue furiously sliding against hers. She just wanted to feel him, so she guided his hand to her pussy and pleaded with her eyes. Being a good boy, Lando slipped a finger inside her and pumped it inside slowly, making her lose it, throwing her head back in pleasure.

“Yes, right there. Oh my… Lando”, her hands flew to his back, fingers digging on his skin. Y/N started to roll her hips against his hand and he smiled at her attempt to feel even better. “I need more, please. One more”.

“One more finger, baby?”, Lando immediately obeyed, loving the sweet moan that came out of her mouth right after. “Come on, tell me what you want”.

“Kiss me, Lan”, she pulled his head closer to hers and her lips met his midway. Lando could’ve died happily just like that. He was getting addicted to her kisses, specially now that they were wanted and asked for. They weren’t a stunt act. They were behind closed doors. She was doing it willingly. 

“Does that feel good?”, he asked between kisses and she nodded, feeling a knot tightening around her stomach.

“I’m gonna cum”, she grunted, making him start circling her clit with his thumb. “Shit, shit. I’m cumming”.

Her pussy clenched around his finger and now he was covered with her juices. Knowing it would make her go crazy, Lando brought his fingers up to his lips and licked them, moaning at the taste of her sweetness. “God, makes me want to get it straight from the source. You taste so good, baby girl”.

Y/N sat on bed and jumped right into his neck, wrapping her arms around his head to kiss him intensely. Lando was surprised by that, but he couldn’t get enough of her kisses. He has been learning to love them for a long time now, but it was so different; so magical. 

“You want to eat me out, uhm?”, she asked him, making Lando arch his eyebrow and smile. “I asked you a question”.

“Well, I would not be opposed to it”.

“That’s not an answer, Lando”, she stopped kissing him, throwing her back against the mattress and getting comfortable between the pillows. She was not going to make him say it. He was the dominant; he wasn’t the one to say those kinds of things. But when Y/N spread her legs and started to play with herself, he just couldn’t keep it to himself.

“Fuck yes, I do. I want to eat you out, pretty girl”, he fell down, head right between her thighs, and started to trail kisses up her legs, until his lips were wrapped around her clit. If Y/N was trying to contain herself, she just couldn’t do it with how good it felt to him eating her pussy so deliciously.

But with their history, she just couldn’t help but provoke him. “You can do better than this”, Y/N dared, as if she wasn’t a moaning mess a few seconds before. And Lando wasn’t one to turn down challenges.

He pulled both of her legs over his shoulder, securing his head on her pussy and making her more comfortable. This time, he started sucking on her clit while working two fingers inside of her. He was too busy to say anything, but Y/N had a whole fucking lot to say about his work.

“Fuck, baby, you’re doing so good. Shit, you just know how to find the right spot. Gonna make me cum again, uhm?”, she was almost screaming in pleasure. When Lando started brushing the right spot inside of her, she felt like she was going to explode. It was different than any other orgasm she ever had in her life. She cummed so hard on his mouth, screaming his name in response.

“That was the hottest thing I’ve ever seen”, Lando had a beautiful smile on his face, that was covered in her juices. “Shit, that was so perfect”.

“You did so good”, she let a hand up to his face, rubbing circles on his cheek with an adorable smile on her face. But then, her hand fell to his cock, pulling him closer to her as she jerked him. “But now it’s time for both of us to feel good”.

Lando kissed her once again, just because the kisses were an addiction by now. Her hands pumping him only made it all feel so much better. Just the thought of having her around his cock made it twitch.

“Eager much?” She smirked on his lips, but Lando didn’t reply. Instead, he pulled her legs to wrap around his torso and guided his cock to her entrance, head brushing her pussy and collecting all the wetness. Y/N moaned and whined just with the contact.

“Eager much?” He joked back before putting just the tip inside. She felt so tight around him, Lando had to take a second to put it all in, needing to push one of her legs over his shoulder, just to give him more access. “Holy fuck, you feel so good around me. Baby, so tight for me. Fuck yes”.

He had closed his eyes, but she gripped on his throat, making him look down again. “Let me see your eyes, Lan”, she asked. His ocean green blue-ish orbs met hers and he quickly wrapped one of his hands on her throat as well. 

“Say my name again”, it was his turn to ask, and she moaned with the request. “Say it”.

“Lando”, she whispered, his cock now moving delicately inside of her. 

“Louder”, he demanded, picking up the pace.

“Lando!”, she screamed, making him slammer down his cock inside her. “I want you to ruin me”.

“Your wish is my command”. Now it was a matter of honour, and Lando was going to give what she asked. So he found the best pace, keeping the movements firm, yet slow enough to not be too much.

“You’re so big, love”, she praised, brushing her hands on his cheek, making him look her in the eyes. Lando looked so pretty while trying to contain his moans to speak. “I can’t get enough of you. I’m so full”

“You take me so well, my love. Fuck me”, his movements were getting sloppier, and she could feel his cock already twitching inside of her. Y/N also noticed that he was holding back his force, trying not to overstep. 

“Don’t hold back, baby. You can use me”, she encouraged, and that was all Lando needed to hear before quickening the pace. And then, it was getting too hard for him to hold back. He wanted to last longer, but it all felt so good. Lucky enough, Y/N started to clench around him. “I’m gonna cum, Lan. Please!”

“Let’s cum together, pretty girl. Come on, we can do this”.

He glued his eyes with her, the hand on her throat not letting them break eye contact as the waves of pleasure crashed over their bodies. Y/N came first, but less than 5 seconds later, he pulled out to come on her stomach. She pumped him outside, getting him dry, while he retributed the favour with his fingers until they were both done.

Y/N had to wait a second to come back to her senses, but Lando promptly took a cloth from the bathroom and cleaned the mess he made over her. Then, too tired to function, he dropped his body over her and pressed a few kisses all over her face. It was like now that he had finally had her, he just wanted to curl up with her and forget about the whole world. And she was willing to let him do just that, because that was exactly what she wanted as well.

He fell asleep just a few seconds into their comfortable silence. Y/N continued to roll her fingers through his curls, lulling him into deep slumber, as she thought about what had just happened. It was still unbelievable in her head, but she kept replaying every moment, already missing his touch. And if her feelings for Lando were already confusing because of that night after his crash, this only made things worse. But having him sleeping on her arms, his digits digging on her skin as he clings tight onto her, made her forget about all her worries.

He woke up for just a few seconds and caught her staring at him. Instead of pretending she wasn’t looking, Y/N cracked him a smile. Lando opened an even wider smile before pressing a kiss to her shoulder. “Let’s go to sleep, angel. Come on”, he got off her to turn off the lamp on the night stand, turning the room dark.

He found a spot for his head on a pillow and missed the warmth of Y/N. So he pulled her closer until she was lying on top of him. The skin to skin contact felt so intimate and comfortable for them. No fabric or cloth between them, just their bodies holding in together. And with his soft hands on her hair, Y/N fell asleep listening to Lando’s heartbeat, who had his own funny pace: quick in adoration for her, and then slow, after she calmed him down.

She would be the death of him someday.

Comparison is the thief of joy. 

It's something you've always struggled with, the endless questioning of yourself, picking yourself apart in ways you believe you don't fit in. It's an easy habit to slip into but a difficult one to break out of. 

As of late, those feelings resurfaced - finding more and more 'faults' when you put yourself up against others. Models. It was as if you got sucked into a spiral of scrolling through images and doubting yourself, all of it leading to you curled up crying in bed. Always. 

No matter how upset you'd be, you'd still find yourself swiping up to see more - feeding that little gremlin in your mind. 

And after a little while, you decided you wanted to do something about those feelings - granted the reasoning behind it wasn't coming from a good place, but you'd be bettering yourself, and that's what you originally wanted.

So you changed your routine: waking up before six, secretly squeezing in an hour workout before joining Bucky on his morning runs, coming back home to have breakfast —an apple— then going about your day only to workout again once you get home. 

You thought food was the enemy, so you restricted yourself with crazy diets and regimes you hear about in Hollywood. You tried a water cleanse, a juice cleanse, keto, even fasting, but no matter how hard you thought you tried, your efforts would not be enough for what you wanted.

All it left you feeling was tired and crappy. No matter how much you hated your body, your body hated you more for what you were doing to it.

You thought you were being sneaky and secretive in the way you were going about it, but you couldn't be more wrong. Bucky, your boyfriend, knew something was running rampant in your mind: every dismissal of a snack you previously loved, every time he watched you dodge a mirror —or on the contrast of seeing you stare too long in one— all of it only confirming what he had hoped not to be true.

It's a sensitive topic, especially to bring up to a loved one. Bucky knew you weren't going to be forthcoming, so he wanted to take the first step.

You were in your shared bedroom, sorting through your dresser to find a clean pair of workout clothes - all of your others drenched in sweat from your previous workouts. 

"Hey, honey?" Bucky calls out, knocking on the ajar door. 

You turn around to see his sweet face, your own almost embarrassed from being caught. "Yeah?" 

"It's almost dinnertime. What do you say about going to that restaurant downtown? The one you love?" he asks, trying to scope you out.

"I have some stuff in the fridge. I bought a bunch of kale that needs eating before it goes bad," you reply, turning away, redirecting your focus to the clothes in your drawer.

Bucky leaves his spot in the doorframe, instead walking over to take a seat at the foot of the bed - behind from where you stand. "That's not food," he softly shakes his head. "Rabbits eat that. Let's get something good. What about a chicken sandwich? Pizza?"

"It is food," you reply. "Put on some pepper and olive oil, then bake it— it's good," you add, trying to convince him and yourself. 

He faintly sighs, resting his elbows on his knees. "No one likes kale."

"Maybe you're not cooking it right," you playfully protest, trying to distract him. 

"No, I cook it right," he stands up, walking to stand beside you. "We haven't gone out to eat for a while. I miss spending time with you like that."

You missed it too - far more than you'd ever anticipate. But you didn't want to slip up again. You already had a few times this week and you didn't want to make a habit of it. 

"I do, too, but I already ate. Maybe in the week?"

"What did you have?" he asks, craning his neck to look at your face.

You hesitate, not having an answer. "I can't remember."

He exhales weakly, your unknown confirmation making his heart sink. His hand reaches for yours, the act like he was pulling your attention back to him. "That means you haven't eaten," he utters, his tone soft - the meaning behind his words almost scolding. 

You feel cornered, and once again, you have no answer for him. 

His grip tightens, gently turning you back to him. "You need to eat, honey. Your body needs it... I know what you've been doing."

After hearing something you didn't want to, your stomach drops. Bucky knew.

"I should've said something when I noticed it," he shakes his head, feeling at fault. "You know you can't keep doing what you're doing?"

You nod meekly, avoiding his eyes. You did know that what you were doing was unhealthy, but you wanted to be like them. If they can do it, why can't you?

"Why have you been doing it?" he asks faintly, cocking his neck to meet your gaze.

"Are you telling me off?"

He's quick to shake his head, denying it almost instantly - both his palms reaching to cup your face. "God, no," his soft eyes bore into yours. "Of course not, honey. Never," he reassures, thumbs grazing over your cheeks. "I just want you to look after yourself."

"I do," you hesitate a response, the words delicate - almost inaudible.

"You don't," he mumbles. "The working out, not eating? You're hurting yourself," he pauses. "If you want to change, I can help you. But we'll do it the right way, okay? None of what you've been doing."

All you can do is nod, silently acknowledging your accidental wrongdoings.

"Just small changes," he leans in, pressing a kiss to your lips. "That's all you need, okay?"

"Okay," you faintly smile, agreeing to the help. 

"So," he starts, removing the placement on the sides of your face. "We're going to go out for dinner. And you're going to order whatever you want— whatever it is you've been wanting to eat," he pauses, noticing the hesitancy in your expression. "And we're going to order water instead of wine. Small changes."

The thought of ordering a meal you've restricted yourself from is enough to make your smile genuine. The idea of having your lover's support making it all that much easier.
