How can I help my family in Gaza?
I am Mahmoud, a resident of northern Gaza. Since the war started, everything that touches a decent life has disappeared, and everything has become a mess.
I woke up in the morning and found that I had to stand in line for drinking water so that my family and I could have some.
I woke up in the morning and realized that I had to wake up before dawn to get in line for bread.
War, destruction, and killing,
The next morning, I had to make a fateful decision; should we stay in the house we were in or leave it? My whole family had to evacuate because the occupation issued evacuation orders for our residential area, and I didnโ€™t know what was right or wrongโ€ฆ
Eventually, we left our homes, our belongings, and all our sweet memories, and we went wherever the army ordered us. After a while, the situation calmed down in our area.
I woke up to the sound of a phone call, "We reached your house after the army withdrew," but we didnโ€™t find the house, nor did we find your familyโ€™s house.
I didnโ€™t sleep that day; I sat with myself, wishing I could find time to mourn my life. My phone rang, "Come on, Mahmoud, letโ€™s eat together." But Mahmoud had no money left! We spent everything; how could I go without food?
I woke up after 200 days of war, talked to my mom: "Mom, I want to look for internet and electricity to go back to work and support you, or Iโ€™ll stay with you to fill water and manage food." My mom said, "No, go, my son, the important thing is that you return to work."
I woke up after that; my mom went out to fill water, and my heart was breaking, but I had to get up and find a place to go back to work for her.
I managed to get a laptop from your support and found a place with electricity and internet at such a time because it was almost impossible. I also got a new tent, and things went well, thank God. However, at this time, everything turned back to how it was before; prices rose again, and famine returned amid the closure of crossings. Everything became worse than before; you canโ€™t even provide for your daily expenses to the point that two or three days can pass without eating bread. Sometimes you manage with rice, bulgur, or lentils, but for how long?
How many mornings do we have left in this life? We donโ€™t know.
Tumblr media
The question is: dear reader, will you wake up to the disaster we are in? Will you realize that we truly need financial and moral support to be able to continue?

Tumblr media Tumblr media
lando norris x biker!reader
it's race week in miami, but instead of being on four wheels, lando has some two wheel trouble. he feels bad enough to where he turns to twitter to help find the girl he nearly caused a collision with.
authors note: I love bikers so I had to do this (and I know that lando didn't help oscar win his sprint, but she doesn't know that! yet!!!) second and third part will be out in the next few days or so!

Hi I'm that person who made the original post about "no doesn mean no" when a small bit of the mr beast company document was leaked, well, now we have the full document (thanks rosanna) so I'm going to go over it. Please note I am not a lawyer or a business man, I'm in college for psychology, so I might misunderstand some things or make the wrong conclusion. However, if this is a document made for the average mr. beast employee, if I cannot understand it properly, then im sure some employees also struggled
First of all, the opening paragraph. Like I get it's supposed to be like, to put people at ease, but
Tumblr media
This is so strange? Like, first of all, this is your EMPLOYEE MANUAL, you should have run it through like, a spell check? Or had someone edit it? This is already incredibly unprofessional. Also the promising of a thousand dollars if you pass a quiz on it? It's bizarre and I'd love to see if it's an actual quiz.
Tumblr media
Jimmy, hun, please god get an editor for this you're already trying my patience.
Tumblr media
YOU SHOULD, you genuinely should, while interconnected these are all COMPLETELY different jobs, if you think you could write a separate manual for each branch you SHOULD
Tumblr media
I'm sure I'm about to get an answer but what the fuck is the best YOUTUBE video then? If it's not comedy, its not production, its not quality, its not look, then what the hell is left? (monetization, it's monetization)
Tumblr media
First of all, Jimmy, why are you using internet lingo in this, it's not a text message, this is not a place for, idc, and lol, and not capitalizing your headers correctly??? Also like I said, he's chasing trends for monetization, and also he's just wrong, there are plenty of hollywood level shows and the like on youtube. You fully admit you do not care about trends and actively rush things?
Tumblr media
This is just fucked??? Like of COURSE IT MATTERS??? Results based company is bullshit, your employees that worked for five weeks and failed aren't "lesser" then James, it's a structural failure! They still worked for HOURS to try and succeed?? That shows merit and loyalty??? What the fuck???
Tumblr media
Rosanna covers this one in her video but it's worth restating that this is FUCKED??? It's clear overwork "your job is your family" culture. Especially the use of the word obsessive? If you do not OBSESS over your work, you are considered poisonous. NO WONDER we have so many reports of employees doing things they feel is dangerous or unsafe, if they don't they're considered POISON to the company.
Tumblr media
The formatting in this doc continues to fucking kill me, what are you DOING man GET AN EDITOR
Tumblr media
This feels like such an easy fix of just...make the thumbnail after the fact? Or only make a rough draft of one first? Like if production makes a red bouncy castle instead of a yellow one, that feels like an easy fix to the thumbnail OR a communication error, and again, that's on management
A lot of the next stuff is like analytics stuff that for the most part I can't really speak on as someone who does not do any of this stuff. There are a few things though
Tumblr media
Which like???? what??? a lull??? what do you mean "watching a video without even realizing they are watching a video??" That doesn't scream good or even mediocre content to me. If I'm actively tuning out as I watch a video, that's bad. Especially because there have been plenty of times I've been like half way through a video i go "hey this sucks actually" and click off. They actively want their audience to not be paying attention to the video so it runs all the way through, that's kinda pathetic.
Tumblr media
I don't actually know if this is common or not in this industry, but as an outsider this seems INCREDIBLY micromanaging to me, to an immense degree.
Tumblr media
Jimmy why are you putting swears in your employee manual?? sir??? and also something about this whole thing icks me out, I don't quite have the words but the whole emphasis on "im different im special no one else can be me" just reeks of something kind of manipulative
Tumblr media
Why is production changing so much Jimmy??? Infinite growth is the mindset of a cancer cell Jimmy! This is incredibly unstable working conditions! Also again with the word obsession, if you take time out of your own day on your own time to watch hulu, that's seen as not being obsessed enough for the company. This is nonsensical!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Again, this is INSANELY micromanaging, and also so fucking unhinged??? "God himself couldn't stop you from making this video on time" is NOT a healthy work mindset, things HAPPEN!!!
Tumblr media
In this segment he's actually talking normal things but I did just want to highlight his use of "freaken" who the hell puts that in an EMPLOYEE MANUEL
Tumblr media
Again with the micromanaging, and the immense pressure on employees for problems OTHER people do. While he's not fully wrong that you should be in more contact with the contractor then the example, this is too much in the other direction. How much time in the day does he think people have?!
Tumblr media
My kingdom for a fucking paragraph break dude, my fucking eyes. Also this is a lot of "im so great and do everything and you should do more for me and if i dont know something that's your fault" for something titled "I am not always right"
Tumblr media
I'm getting lazy with my highlighting, but again, the micromanaging? If you're SOOO busy, the first question should be the ideal? it's quick and makes a quick decision, while the second one meanders and meanders
Tumblr media
Again, Jimmy is pushing blame for HIS mistakes on OTHER PEOPLE. For again, a section called "i am not always right" hes taking NO accountability for that and just making the SAME excuses he's berating in other places.
Tumblr media
I can't even tell what he means here AN EDITOR JIMMY
Tumblr media
Autism Hell tm, PLEASE email me so I can DOUBLE CHECK IT, things in writing are SO useful
Tumblr media
Again the language towards "C-Players" which as mr beast has said, are the people who y'know, are NORMAL employees who DON'T live and breathe this company
Tumblr media
Okay first of all, a Lamborghini is like 300k so that's already A REALLY hard task, and i sure hope don't usually put typos in the tasks. SECOND of all the fact he thinks its okay to go "hey if the studio is literally on fire around you and you stop working to get the Lamborghini, you're not doing good enough" even if he claims it as a joke is NOT OKAY what the FUCK
Tumblr media
We've covered this before, but to reiterate this segment is named after a sexual assault reference when it could have been named ANYTHING ELSE and harasses employees and pressures them to break rules, don't do that.
Tumblr media
I'm not an editor, so maybe this is normal, but as someone from the outside it seems strange to put this much emphasis on dividing focus between so many videos at once.
Tumblr media
Jimmy, hun, are you paying extra for this? Because if I'm an editor and you want me FILMING stuff then i want to be paid more for doing TWO jobs and I probably still wont be as skilled a TRAINED CAMERA MAN
Tumblr media
First of all now THAT'S a type, consteatants. Also the fact they are aware that leaving contestants out in the sun is bad, why are you not doing MORE TO STOP IT BEYOND "hey maybe giving them three hours of heatstroke is bad, try only two next time"
Tumblr media
Don't we love favoritism, more shitty unprofessional writings, and a completely unstable work environment?
Tumblr media
If your people have to pull all nighters period something is wrong, and if something happens to an employees car that could have seriously hurt someone, i sure hope you care more then just "LOL FUNNY" Who's picking up the broken glass? Who's reimbursing the car owner? That one meme of "your first care should be commitment to the bit" is a MEME jimmy, it's not ACTUAL ADVICE
Ah shit I hit image limit, well, you've seen enough screenshots to know these are screenshots, we're almost done I'll put them in as quotes
"Letโ€™s say you are tasked with finding us a castle to live in for 50 hours and while doing research you find a castle and a number to call for the owner. So you do call, and he answers. Only problem is he says he quit the castle renting business to pursue his dream of building a 100 foot tall lego catapult. You can obviously tell where iโ€™m going with this. Ideally youโ€™d recognize thatโ€™s badass as fuck and try to convince him to let us use it when we do find a castle. This is a bad example because itโ€™s so obvious but if youโ€™re doing your job right you will be doing an absurd amounts of calls and data collecting. While trying to complete your prios and prepare for the video you should always be on the lookout for new things you can bring to your creative team to inspire them. Because just like me, they donโ€™t know what they donโ€™t know and you canโ€™t just say โ€œiโ€™m in production and iโ€™m not very creativeโ€ because thatโ€™s literally the equivalent of saying I suck at what I do. You also need to apply this same mindset when problem solving because many people lose sight of this stuff when in the weeds. If a problem appears, always always always ask yourself if your new plan is whats best for creative, not just the easiest bandaid."
First of all it's really funny seeing all the red lines pop up, second of all this insistent blurring of everyone's job seems so strange? Again maybe this is normal, but it really feels like Jimmy wants everyone working every job, instead on focusing on what they are actually hired to do.
"What is the goal of our content?
To excite me. The goal of our content is to excite me. That may sound weird to some of you, especially if youโ€™re new but to me itโ€™s whatโ€™s most important. If I'm not excited to get in front of that camera and film the video, itโ€™s just simply not going to happen."
That's fucking weirddddd, like I get that he's trying to be like "im authentic" but it always feels like a bad sign when the goal of a company is literally just "What amuses the boss" like...bad sign
"this is youtube and there are constraints. You know the video canโ€™t be a minute so youโ€™re obviously going to need a story to hold the viewers and there are rules to storytelling. Our audience is massive and because of that you have to be simple, for 50 million people to understand something it must be simple. Content can be anything but there is structure and rules that we must mold it into that I want to teach you about, because virality doesnโ€™t just happen. Every frame of our videos will be seen by 10s of millions of people"
Gross
"I'd say the average MrBeast viewer is a teenage memer that likes video games."
Mr Beast is completely aware of his demographic and puts screen shots of it, he is very aware his stuff is aimed at kids, even when its about gambling or hiring people not around near minors
"I feel silly for having to write this but all the time I talk to 32 new people that have at most seen like 5 or 6 of our videos and itโ€™s mind blowing that they donโ€™t see a problem with that lol."
It's almost like your audience is teenage memer and that people who working here are not in fact, teenage memers.
"What you consume on social media, when you watch youtube, tv, the games you play, etc. are what I like to call your information diet.
How do you stay up to date on the latest memes? How do you know whatโ€™s going on with celebrities? Whatโ€™s trending on youtube? What other creators are doing? Whatโ€™s popping on tik tok? Your information diet. Consume things on a daily basis that help you write better content."
If my job as a creative writer had my boss tell me to have to see whats "popping on tik tok" as part of my job i'd quit also again, the micromanaging of someone's life as well pops up again, it's weirddd
"Itโ€™s okay for the boys to be childish
If talent wants to draw a dick on the white board in the video or do something stupid, let them. (assuming they know all the risks and arnโ€™t missing context on why itโ€™s not safe) People like when we are in our natural element of stupidity. Really do everything you can to empower the boys when filming and help them make content. Help them be idiots"
More favoritism
"If youโ€™ve made it this far you are probably at least semi interested in this being your career. So I wanted to chat about it. Because if you're ambitious and want to dedicate your life to work, you picked the best company in America to do it at. I really donโ€™t care to hoard a bunch of money and I deeply believe in rewarding the people that help this business get where it needs to be. But before I get into that, letโ€™s talk about the future. As I write this we have 2 teams, that will grow to 4 in the next year. (and possibly 8 in the next 2 years but I canโ€™t talk about that cause james will kill me haha). We need more leaders in the company. Weneed hard working, obsessive, coachable, intelligent, grinders that can step up and take some of these leadership spots over the next 2 years. Every single department has an opportunity for you to grow in and youโ€™re in luck because we donโ€™t do yearly reviews. We do whenever the fuck you want reviewes"
Lack of communication from management, and more emphasis on grinding and crunch culture, goodie, all while riddled with typos! God.
"I see a world where this company is worth billions and one day 10s of billions. And those of you that help build this will be rewarded. I want nothing more then for you to go all in, obsessive all day everyday, and become so god dam valuable this company canโ€™t operate without you. And in return for becoming so valuable I hope to give you incredible experiences, a fun place to work, and of course, more money then you could ever dream of making at any other company."
I feel like I'm reading a fucking pyramid scheme document here, "youre so so valuable spend literally every minute of every day on this company haha" good GOD man

it isn't really complicated, but i still can't tell my grandma about it. my girlfriend is also my boyfriend and i'm her girlboyfriend and there are a lot of days this feels like smoothing sheets over a good mattress. it feels like getting a cup of good hot chocolate. we paint our nails lesbian flag pink, and i watch her eyelashes make shadows on her cheeks. she wants to kiss me because i am really good at baking, and i want to kiss her because when i am freaked out about how i spilled coffee, she just hands me extra napkins and helps me clean. he is so handsome i want to eat my fist. they once just winked at me and i couldn't talk for like the next fifteen minutes.
i haven't seen the L word and i was raised catholic. my earliest experiences with queer relationships were through harrowing conversations and hushed questions and blood on the ground. i didn't like boys soon enough. what, are you gay? asked to a 6th grader, almost like a demand.
when she is asleep next to me and i can feel the dreams run up and down her body, i pretend we are both somewhere in the stars. i like to picture a future full of fruit trees, and writing him poetry. sometimes she wakes up, has a whole conversation with me, goes back to sleep, and utterly forgets that we ever even spoke. she is always kind to me, even in that liminal half-there ghost. i like the croaked, raw way her voice sounds in the very-early morning, the way she always seems surprised i'm still here, and home.
on the internet, there are a lot of people who would be annoyed by both of us, and how labels must be pruned into orchids. a box has to hold and define the insides. people must be organized.
we went on a date last night, and the host said, oh, table for 2 nice ladies? neither of us are ladies, but also we are very much 2 nice ladies. i have been wearing her sweater nonstop. he has frequently been forced into wearing my taylor swift official merch quarter-zip because i was worried about him catching a chill, and you simply cannot be cool in an official taylor swift quarter-zip. do not worry: they listen to better music than i do, and their voice sounds like leaves falling.
i wear the skirts and makeup and i am better with spackle and know how to drive stick. recently someone commented on my work - you're just a man trying to reappropriate lesbian spaces. sometimes i feel like she is a clementine to me, and sometimes i feel like he is a german shepherd and sometimes i feel they are a bird. i like watching his hands over a guitar. can i write this poem, even? how can you be a lesbian if you're sometimes with a man? or you are the man?
how can i, huh. you know, our first date lasted 3 days. we'd been flirting for over a year before i finally asked her out. i'd already written her into poetry. she'd already written me into songs.
last night, in the late night, when they woke up again, confused about where they were, they said - oh, thank god. this is your arm. there's just something so precious to me about the specifics, the denotation that the arm was (thank god!) mine. i really liked that definition. i liked the obvious relief because i understand it.
i say yeah, i have a partner. i mean - oh. thank god. it's your arm.

โ€œI first started noticing the journalists dying on Instagram. I'm a journalist, I'm Arab, and I've reported on war. A big part of my community is other Arab journalists who do the same thing.
And when someone dies, news travels fast. Recently, I pulled up the list that the Committee to Protect Journalists has been keeping and looked at it for the first time. There are 95 journalists and media workers on it as of today.
Almost everyone on it is Palestinian. Scrolling through, I started to get angry. These were the people carrying the burden of documenting this whole war.
Israel is not allowing foreign journalists into Gaza, except on rare occasions with military escorts. These people's names are being buried in a giant list that keeps growing. What I want to do is lift some of them off the list for a moment and give you a glimpse of who they were and the work they made.
I'll start with Sadi Mansour. Sadi was the director of Al-Quds News Network, and he posted a 22-second video on November 18. That was a report from the war, but it also gave me a picture into his marriage.
Sadi's wearing his press vest and looks exhausted. He's explaining that cell service and the Internet keep getting cut off, and it's often impossible to text or call anyone, including his wife. So they've resorted to using handwritten letters to communicate while he's out reporting, sending them back and forth with neighbors or colleagues.
He ends the video with a picture of one of these letters from his wife. In it, she writes,
โ€˜Me and the kids stayed up waiting for you until the morning, and you didn't come home. We were really sad.
I kept telling the kids, Look, he's coming. But you didn't show up. May God forgive you.
Come home tomorrow and eat with us. Do you want me to make you kebab or maybe kapse? Bring your friends with you, it's okay.
And give Azeez the battery to charge. What do you think about me sending you handwritten letters with messenger pigeons from now on? Ha ha ha.
I'm just kidding. I want to curse at you, but we're living in a war. Too bad.
Okay, I love you. Bye.โ€™
A few hours after he shared that letter, Sadie and his co-worker Hassouna Saleem were at Sadie's home, when they were killed by an Israeli air strike that hit his house.
His wife and kids, who weren't there, survived.
Gaza is tiny, and the journalist community is really close. Reading the list, you can see all the connections between people. Like with Brahim Lafi.
Brahim was a photojournalist, one of the first journalists to die. He was killed while reporting on October 7. He was just 21, still new to journalism.
On his Instagram, you can see that in his posts just a few years ago, he was still practicing his photography, taking pictures of coffee cups and flowers. Then he started doing beautiful portraits and action shots. You can really feel him starting to become a journalist.
Clicking around on Instagram, I found a tribute post about Brahim from his co-worker Rushdie Sarraj. In this photo, Brahim staring intently at the back of a camera, his face lit up by the light from the viewfinder. He looks so young.
The caption reads, My assistant is gone. Brahim is gone. Rushdie himself was a beloved journalist and filmmaker.
And I know that because he's also on the list. He was killed just two weeks after Brahim. I read the tribute post to him too.
I saw this over and over again. Journalists posting tributes, who were then killed themselves soon after. And a tribute goes up for them.
And then the pattern continues.
Thank you.
Something else I saw over and over on the list, journalists later in the war who had become aware that they could be making their last reports. They'd say it at the beginning of their videos. And those were the hardest to watch, especially when it was true.
One video like that was posted by Ayat Hadduro. Ayat was a freelance journalist and video blogger. Her videos before the war covered a wide range from what I can tell, interviews about women in politics.
She even appeared in a commercial for ketchup-flavored chips. She clearly liked being in front of the camera. Once the war started, Ayat's pivoted to covering bombings and food shortages.
On November 20, she posted a video report from her home. You can hear the airstrikes hitting very close to where she is. It's scary.
โ€˜This is likely my last video. Today, the occupation forces dropped phosphorus bombs on Beit Lahya area and frightening sound bombs. They dropped letters from the sky, ordering everyone to evacuate.
Everyone ran into the streets in the craziest way. No one knows where to go.
But everyone else has evacuated. They don't know where they're going. The situation is so scary.
What's happening is so tough, and may God have mercy on us.โ€™
She was killed later that day.
Targeting journalists, in case you didn't know, is a war crime. So far, the Committee to Protect Journalists has found that three of the journalists on the list were explicitly targeted by the IDF, the Israeli military. Investigations by the Washington Post and Reuters, Human Rights Watch and the United Nations have also raised serious questions in these three cases.
And the Committee to Protect Journalists is investigating 10 other killings. When we reached out to the IDF for comments, they said, quote, the IDF has never, and will never, deliberately target journalists. That's the answer they always give in these situations.
Meanwhile, dozens of seasoned reporters have fled Gaza. Journalists who worked for Al Jazeera, the BBC, the New York Times, the Washington Post, Reuters, Agence France-Presse. So many media offices were demolished in Israeli airstrikes that the Committee to Protect Journalists stopped counting.
It's not just individual lives that have been destroyed. It's an entire infrastructure.
Thank you.
The name on the list that was hardest for me to look at was Issam Abdullah, because I'd crossed paths with him once. Issam was a Lebanese journalist, a video journalist for Reuters for many, many years. He had just won an award for coverage of Ukraine.
I'm Lebanese and still report there sometimes, and I'd worked with Issam a couple of summers ago. He helped me film a sort of random story in Beirut. I was interviewing this entrepreneur who had started a sperm freezing company after an accident where he spilled a tray of hot coffee on his private area, burning himself.
I know, ridiculous. It was a really silly shoot. Right after we said cut and started to rap, Issam started this whole bit about being in his late 30s, reconsidering his own sperm quality and everything he now realized he was doing to hurt it, and no one could stop laughing.
It was a really good day that felt good to remember and to remember him that way. Issam was killed by the IDF on October 13. His death was one of the three that the Committee to Protect Journalists has identified as a targeted killing.
He was fired upon by an Israeli tank while standing in an empty field on the Lebanon-Israel border with a small group of other journalists. Everyone was wearing press vests with cameras out. They were covering the Hezbollah part of this war.
A few other journalists were injured in the attack, which was captured on video. The IDF says they were responding to firing from Hezbollah, not targeting the journalists. But multiple investigations, including by Reuters, the United Nations, Amnesty International and the AFP, found no evidence of any firing from the location of the journalists before the IDF shot at them.
The journalists in the group and video footage confirmed that there was no military activity near them. I had only met Issam once, barely knew him, but it affected me so much when he died. I know that he understood the risks of his job, but somehow it still felt so random and unfair that he would be struck down like that, following the rules, wearing his press vest and helmet, and a pack of reporters on a sunny day in an open field.
I find myself thinking about him all the time. His last Instagram post was commemorating another journalist, this iconic reporter Shereen Abou Aql who had been killed by the IDF. When I first saw that post in October, I thought how ironic because a week later, Isam also was killed by the IDF.
But then, after spending time reading the list, I realized how common this had become. I still haven't finished going through the list and looking up the people on it. I keep finding things that stick with me, like the funny way this one radio host would cut off a caller who was rambling on for too long.
A tweet from reporter Al-Abdallah that quoted Sylvia Plath. It read, What ceremony of wars can patch the havoc? I'm going to keep going down the list, even though this story is over now.
Just for myself. My own way of bearing witness. Which is, in the end, all that these journalists were trying to do.โ€
โ€”DANA BALLOUT, The 95. Dana sifts through a very long listโ€”the list of journalists killed in the Israel-Hamas war, and comes back with five small fragments of the lives of the people on it. Dana is a Lebanese-American, Emmy-nominated documentary producer.

Hey, I love your Batfam work! Is there any chance you could do a whump/angst one of batsis being kidnapped by a villian(you can choose whoever you want) and sheโ€™s tortured for days with it being broadcasted to the Batfam while they try to track the footage. I feel kinda bad but can you do maybe some head trauma md severe burns? Maybe she has to be put in a medically included coma or smth because of the damage? Also is there any way you could include Barb and Duke along w/ the four robins? If not thatโ€™s totally cool! Sorry for the long request but I hope you have a great day!!
Anonymous Requested: batfam x batsib reader whos the youngest and newest robin and is just really goofy and doesnโ€™t take anything seriously (ex: them blaring โ€œwhoโ€™s the (bat)manโ€ on the comms during patrol [that songs stuck in my head i had to mention it]) and something happens, maybe their first close encounter to death or a run in with the joker and they just become a shell of who they were and stuff

โ€œY/N, turn that shit off.โ€
Jason grumbled at you over the coms. You had been blasting some wretched song that youโ€™d found on the internet over and over again and it was beginning to drive him mad.ย 
โ€œNope.โ€ You said, popping the โ€˜pโ€™ loudly.ย 
โ€œSeriously.โ€ Dick deadpanned. He had found it amusing at first, but it was now beginning to test his patience.ย 
Agitated, you sighed and turned off the music. โ€œFine.โ€
โ€œThank you.โ€ Jason expressed gratefully, turning his eyes back to the road he was patrolling. The night was cool and quiet besides the odd dog walker or couple returning from an evening out. It was one of those nights where patrol would end early and he could return home to take a warm bath and read a book before turning in for the night. Or so he thought.ย 
You were rounding the corner, humming that tune that was still stuck in your head when his laughter ricocheted across the walls. You stiffened, eyes widening and hands fumbling for your weapon as your breath hitched. No amount of turning and craning your head allowed you to catch a glimpse of the dreaded figure, and you thought for a moment that perhaps it had just been a trick of your mind, or one of your brothers playing a cruel joke on you as payback for winding them up earlier. But then you heard it again, only this time to your left. You clutched your weapon tighter, eyes scanning the area with a new found sense of urgency.ย 
โ€œWingโ€ฆโ€ You whispered into the coms so quietly that you were surprised he heard it.
โ€œWhat now?โ€ He somewhat snapped.ย 
โ€œWe have a problem.โ€
Dickโ€™s heart sank through the floor, his ears pricking up and his demeanour changing completely. โ€œWhere are you? Whatโ€™s the matter? He was trying to let his panic show, but you hadnโ€™t been patrolling as a vigilante for very long, and while you were well trained, you lacked the experience to deal with something big on your own. And from your tone of voice, he could tell that you were in some deep shit.ย 
Jason worked his legs harder to push himself to reach the direction he had seen you head off in. Albeit it seemed even his hardest wasnโ€™t enough.
When he stepped out of the darkness, the first thing you noticed were his eyes. Wide and bright, easily mistakable for a catโ€™s as they flashed in the darkness; wild. Rabid. As he emerged fully with that infamous twisted grin splayed out on his face, you felt like a cornered animal; a deer in headlights. You froze, unable to move despite how your heart screamed at you to run as it pounded, trying to break free from your ribcage.ย 
โ€œHeโ€™s hereโ€ฆโ€ A mere whisper sliding over your tongue, so fragile that you werenโ€™t even sure if you had actually said it aloud. Jason had heard it.ย 
โ€œWho?โ€ย 
The Joker was circling you now, dragging out his strides in lazy circles. You should have fought but in that moment all of your training had drained out of you, along with the colour in your face. He smirked, leering down upon you as you tried to keep your trembling hand still. He pouted in mockery and at your silence, Jason repeated his question to you, but you never got the chance to respond.ย 
โ€œOhโ€ฆJust an old friend, Jay-bird.โ€
โ€œJoker.โ€ Urging his body to move faster, Jason grit his teeth.ย 
Dick paled. โ€œYou leave them alone.โ€ Dick spat. It tried to be a command, but the effect was lost somewhere in transmission.
The joker pursed his lips, tilting his head as he analysed. One of his hands had found his way to your jawline and he trailed it with a cold, gloved hand. You wanted to lean away, to run and find your brother but you knew that now he had you in his grasp there was no point in even trying. โ€œAnd why would I do that? Theyโ€™re right in front of me. I could justโ€ฆsnatch them up.โ€
โ€œDonโ€™t you dare!โ€ Dick was frightened now. โ€œY/N, you stay there as long as you can, okay? You fight. Weโ€™re coming, you hear?โ€
The Joker frowned at you. โ€œDโ€™you hear that? Big brother birdy coming to the rescue. How sweet.โ€
His grip on you tightened. โ€œToo bad youโ€™ll be long gone by the time they get here.โ€
With one swift motion, he had thrown you harshly to the side, your head colliding with the wall with a sickening crack.ย 
The two boys skidded to a halt just a second too late. You were already gone.ย 
~
Your head hurt when you woke up. Your eyes squinted against the sterile light. They did no favours to your pounding headache. With a groan, you tried to twist, to roll over and soothe the crook in your neck but instead all that happened was the jinging of a metal chain. You craned your head and spotted the thick chain that had been wrapped around your wrist, confining you to the chair. Struggling, you tugged on them, trying to free yourself only for them to rattle and scrape against your skin.ย 
โ€œYeah, thatโ€™s not going anywhere, birdy.โ€ The joker chided.
You glared at him through narrowed eyes, trying to mask the thumping of your heart. The joker grinned wildly at your frightened complexion.ย 
โ€œIt was such a shame that Grayson and Todd didnโ€™t get to you in time, but it was far too easy to catch you, little bird: you completely froze.โ€ He snapped his fingers to emphasise his point. โ€œDidnโ€™t batsy teach you better?โ€
โ€œDonโ€™t talk about them.โ€ You snapped.ย 
The joker raised his hands, palms facing toward you in surrender: taunting you as if you were the one with the power in the situation. โ€œTouchy subject I see. Too bad.โ€ย 
He gestured above you to an incessantly blinking light. โ€œSmile for the camera, youโ€™re live.โ€
~
Babs had been monitoring the street cameras when the computer beside her flickered to life. She had been searching for any sign of you ever since Dick and Jason came flying through the grandfather clock. Everyone was on edge.ย 
The moment the screen flashed on, her eyes perked up to watch it, alarmed. She hadnโ€™t turned it on. And there were very few people who could bypass the caves system. So when she saw a small frame curled up in a chair she knew immediately what was up.ย 
โ€œDukeโ€ฆโ€ she called to the dark haired boy who was trying to help decipher your whereabouts. โ€œGo and get B.โ€ย 
It did not take long at all for everyone to gather around in the cave. Duke was fast, and everyone dropped what they were doing to race down: even Alfred had taken his leave from his duties to see.ย 
It was almost like some sick irony because as soon as they were all there, you began to scream. A guttering, perfect scream that cut that through them like a knife: unclean and pinging into them messily again and again.ย 
The joker had taken a knife to your left thigh, his smile dripping with malice as he watched the camera, somehow knowing that at least one of them would be watching.ย 
Your face was contorted in pain, twisting in agony as tears rolled flatly down your cheeks from fearful eyes. Damian felt sick, his stomach churning. Jason wanted to leave. But all of them were stuck watching. Barbra was tapping away, trying to locate the signal from the video to no avail.ย 
โ€œI hope youโ€™re watching this Batsyโ€ฆโ€ He moved round to trail your face with the edge of the knife. You whimpered. โ€œIโ€™ve got your little bird here and I must say, you need to work on their training. They were far too easy to catch.โ€
Bruce felt his jaw tightening and Tim had to place a hand on his arm to remind him of his place.ย 
โ€œAnyway I thought we would play a little gameโ€ฆ how long can little y/n survive for. I wonder if itโ€™ll be any longer than our very own Jason Todd.โ€
Jason twitched.ย 
โ€œIโ€™m testing you here, Bat. Tick Tock.โ€
The transmission cut to black.ย 
~
It seemed hopeless. Even though they had been searching for days, they were no closer to finding you. And to make matters worse, they could see you. Not long after the first transition ended did it start up again. It had been lifestreaming since then, and although they had tried to block it from their minds, it was hard to ignore. Especially when your agonised screams ricocheted throughout the halls.ย 
You looked like hell. Dark bags occluded under your eyes and there wasnโ€™t an inch of your skin that wasnโ€™t marred or stained with drying blood. The burns were worse. Damian could still hear the scream you let out when the joker first brought the hot poker to your skin. It had bubbled and blistered as the skin peeled away; you had thrashed against your restraints violently. Tim was certain that they were going to get infected if they didnโ€™t reach you soon.ย 
It felt as if they had searched everywhere. Dick and Jason had even asked around to see if anyone had heard anything, going as far to talk to the Jokers closest associates in Arkham, but even if they did know, nobody said anything. Duke had even gone as far to go back to the area to use his powers to see if he could trace anything, but nothing seemed out of place; they had hit a brick wall. That wasโ€ฆuntil a small light appeared on the monitor. Babs had managed to trace the signal to a small building on the outskirts of the city.ย 
They were suited up in minutes, making a beeline for the building. They stormed it, recklessly taking down the Joker's goons before Batman chased wildly after the Joker, his face stony and his fists burning with anger. The other four boys chased down the winding corridors, flinging open the doors until they found one that was locked. Tim wasted no time, picking the lock with ease he peeled it open. His breath hitched when he saw you.ย 
Your face was gaunt, hanging low by your chest. Your suit was torn and there was less of it on your body than there was ripped away. You looked so fragile as your chest heaved sporadically.ย 
Jason nearly had to take a step back. This place reminded himself too much of his own encounter with the Joker not too long ago. But he pressed forward, fighting his instincts. He had to be strong. Instead of turning back, he kneeled in front of you, whispering your name. His hand came up to cup your face. You flinched away.ย 
โ€œItโ€™s okay kid. Itโ€™s us.โ€ He tried to reassure you, but you shrank back into yourself.ย 
โ€œWeโ€™re so, so sorry kiddo.โ€ Dick tried placing a gentle hand on your arm before moving to work on the cuffs around your wrists. โ€œWeโ€™re going to get you out.โ€
You said nothing, just continued to stare at the black space before you, and Dami wasnโ€™t sure if you even knew they were in front of you. But when Jason moved away from you to help remove your restraints, your fingers latched onto him and you squeaked in protest.ย 
He sighed shakily. โ€œDonโ€™t worry kid. Iโ€™m not going anywhere.โ€
Damian twisted from where he was guarding the door. โ€œWe need to leave.โ€
Dick nodded bluntly, finishing with the last of the locks. โ€œIโ€™m going to have to pick you up, okay sweetheart?โ€
You barely registered what he had said. Everything had grown numb, you nodded anyhow. Moving his arms underneath your legs and slipping one arm behind your back, Jason began to lift you. He nearly recoiled when you cried and whimpered with the way your wounds jostled as he sprinted out of the building to get you back to safety.ย 
~
You were yet to say anything since you came home. You had been back a few days and your wounds were healing up nicely thanks to Alfredโ€™s handywork, but the air was eerily silent around you. It wasnโ€™t as if you hadnโ€™t been communicating with them; you spoke to them with gestures or writing but no one was used to not hearing your voice. The stark contrast between your loud and bustling personality and you now was unsettling. No one wanted to push you too far but the manor was beginning to grow lonely.ย 
It was one particularly rainy night when you finally spoke.ย  You were curled up in a large armchair by the window in the library, sinking back into the plush leather as you watched the raindrops race down the glass. Jason had been watching you from afar, contemplating whether to talk to you or not when he walked over.ย 
โ€œWhat are you up to?โ€ He asked you, making sure you knew that he was there before he spoke.ย 
You gestured toward the window,then to the half opened book at your feet and shrugged.ย 
โ€œI see.โ€ He nodded, taking a seat on the armchair opposite you. A comfortable silence settled between the two of you. Jason wasnโ€™t much of a talker. He knew more than anyone what you were going through, which was why it was nice just to know that he was willing to sit with you, just so you knew that he was there if you needed him. It made you feel safe. But you also couldnโ€™t help but feel guilty, and frustrated with yourself for being in a place that made him feel as though he had to do that.ย 
โ€œIโ€™m sorry.โ€ You whispered.ย 
Jason had to do a second take. His heart swelled. โ€œWhat for?โ€
You sighed. โ€œThis. When I saw himโ€ฆi-i froze. If I had run then this would never have happened.โ€
โ€œShh. This isnโ€™t your fault.โ€
โ€œBut-โ€
โ€œI promise, Kid. Youโ€™ve done nothing wrong.โ€
You nodded, looking away from him. But then you furrowed your brows and turned back to him. โ€œHow did you do it? How did you deal with this, Jay? Every time I close my eyes heโ€™s there.โ€
โ€œI guess I donโ€™t, really. Or sometimes it feels like I donโ€™t. I still get scared sometimes. I still see him in my dreams. But over time it gets easier. I had people around me to help me. And so do you, kid. Weโ€™re here. Weโ€™ll always be here.โ€
Jason shifted to brush away a rogue tear and you leaned into his touch and then wrapped your arms tightly around his middle.ย 
โ€œIโ€™m here. Always. Weโ€™ll get through this together.โ€

leon and his lazy touches !
it's usually quite common to be in that position with Leon when you're both in bed. after a long day of work, both on his part and yours, you both end up lazily lying in bed not wanting to do much, just with your social battery completely discharged looking for silent company with each other with your bodies glued together providing warmth to each other.
this was more common than it seemed: him on his cell phone scrolling through the latest news, or memes with really bad jokes that made him giggle, and you watching silly relaxing videos on your cell phone. every once in a while one of you would leave the silence and show the other the cell phone. "oh my god, look at this video..." you'd say, or he'd put the phone in front of your face while laughing like a fool at some meme he got from the most neglected social network on the internet (facebook, from a group of older wives, all complaining about their husbands) but apparently that was the epitome of comedy for your boyfriend. and you sometimes made fun of him, or laughed more because of that complicity he had with you to show you anything and bother you, hiding in your neck while you made fun of his poor taste for humor. sometimes he would pout falsely and you would let him, ending up letting go of your cell phone and placing it on your chest to gently cuddle his hair until he fell asleep.
sometimes he was too immersed reading news on his cell phone, any shit about the current politics of the country, or about news from all over the world about the rulings of justice and those things that he was already so used to but that, beyond that, was what he was dedicated to and interested in. that's why he didn't notice the little tricks he had when his mind was wandering in another dimension. like he inevitably sought to be the big spoon, at all costs. he would hog your whole body with his body sticking his chest to your back as you cowered and followed without paying much attention to him. sometimes his free hand is on your butt, he loves to squeeze something while he's focused on something else, and sometimes your butt became his favorite stim toy. when that stops being enough, he reaches for your boobs.
you giggle, it's quite tender because it's not a sexual touch, at least not at that moment, but he does need to fondle them, knead them, gently scratch the moldable skin of your breasts and that relaxes you, you're not going to lie. it even makes you let out soft giggles when he puts down his cell phone and starts his light chats of what you did in the day... and his hand is still there. almost like marking territory with gentle squeezes that you let be, you know that was something he loved and relaxed him, and in your eyes, he deserved every little thing from you, just as you did from him. you couldn't deny it, especially when he squeezed your chest again and again under your shirt making you laugh while he kept chattering about his job. only then did he realize it and apologize, but he blatantly kept his hand. "it's just that they're soft..." he excused himself, kissing your hair and sinking into it enthusiastically.
your whole body was his temple of rest, he couldn't simply rest in bed if he didn't have you by his side. it was no use if he couldn't touch you, feel you, kiss you every time he wanted to. there was no need for them to talk, each one would be in his own little world for a while, but that habit of having your body next to him he would love for the rest of his life. because thanks to you, he can rest.

Thank you @toruslvt for beta-reading!
Heโ€™ll do anything for his most devout follower, heโ€™ll worship you twice as much as you ever could him.ย 
Tumblr media
"Yet another brush with death." You heard a husky voice beside you, making you turn your head to look at the figure sheepishly.ย 
Whether youโ€™re extremely unlucky or just unfathomably reckless, heโ€™s not sure. All he knows is that your soul has been on the edge of being his over and over again - whether it was narrowly missing a car or falling into a river or even just choking on a bone. You always seem to make it out of those situations just fine, which has thoroughly caught his attention.ย 
ย "You should really be more careful, you know." He looked at you and sighed.ย 
โ€œI am! Or at least I try to be...โ€ You murmur timidly, scratching the back of your neck. โ€œItโ€™s uh, itโ€™s nice to see you again.โ€ You give him a small smile, turning your body to face him.ย 
As always, heโ€™s in his dark cloak, the hood lifted to conceal some of his hair, casting a shadow over his face. The gold accents adorning his body glint due to the faint sunlight casting through your kitchen window, the same sunlight making his tan skin glow, making him look otherworldly - which he was.ย 
He raised his eyebrow, โ€œIs it now? Most people are terrified to see me.โ€ He muttered, smirking a bit,
โ€œI guess Iโ€™m used to you now.โ€ Your grin gets a bit larger, warmer. โ€œYou donโ€™t have your scythe.โ€ You point out.
He lets out a slight chuckle at your observation, โ€œSuch a keen eye. I figured I wouldnโ€™t need it, and I was right. What was it this time?โ€
Your face heats with embarrassment at the question. โ€œI slipped.โ€ You confess, pointing to the puddle of water on the ground. โ€œAlmost cracked my head open, I guess. But! I turned my body in time, so Iโ€™m fine.โ€
โ€œYes, that would explain your wet clothes.โ€ His eyes trail down your body, catching slightly where your nipples peek out against the damp fabric, before looking back up to your face.
He clears his throat, โ€œHavenโ€™t you learned your lesson by now? Itโ€™s not even lunch time yet and you were on the brink of death. Arenโ€™t you afraid of dying?โ€ He scolds you.
โ€œI mean, not really.โ€ย 
A pause of silence.
โ€œWhat? Youโ€™re joking, right? How can you be so cavalier about this?โ€
โ€œI donโ€™t know, it doesn't seem so bad. Itโ€™s a natural part of life. Should I be scared?โ€ย 
โ€œWhat kind of question is that?!โ€ He raises his voice slightly, eyebrows scrunched as he looks at you. โ€œOf course, you should be. Dying isnโ€™t fun. Youโ€™ll be dead, trapped in the underworld for the rest of eternity. You should be trying to preserve your life while you still have it.โ€
โ€œI am, though. Iโ€™m not saying I donโ€™t like being alive, Iโ€™m just saying, when it happens, itโ€™ll happen. Thereโ€™s no use being so pre-cautious and anxious all the time.โ€
He lets out a huff, โ€œYou areโ€ฆ certainly a strange one.โ€
โ€œIn any case, Iโ€™d like to think my soul will go to Elysium. I'm a pretty good person, so I think the afterlife wonโ€™t be too awful for me.โ€ You continue on, carefree.
"That isn't my point, though. Even if you're guaranteed a place in Elysium, you should still be more vigilant.โ€
โ€œWhy should I be? My end is already predetermined, isnโ€™t it? Donโ€™t the fates know when my time is up?โ€
โ€œWellโ€ฆ yes, but-โ€
โ€œWait, then how come you visit me before I actually die?โ€ You interrupt him, a realization suddenly taking place. โ€œNear death experiences shouldn't summon you right?โ€
He hesitates a bit, caught. "Youโ€™re correctโ€ฆ I visit you on my own accord.โ€
โ€œWhy?โ€ You tilt your head cutely, an innocent and puzzled look in your eyes.
โ€œYouโ€™ve just caught my attention, is all.โ€ He looks away. โ€œI like to keep track of you, the Fates are wrong sometimes, and you basically have a death wish so I justโ€ฆ I like to make sure youโ€™re okay.โ€
You smile slightly at his words, โ€œYou donโ€™t want me to die?โ€
โ€œOf course, I donโ€™t. I like- I like to watch you. Youโ€™re interesting to me.โ€ He chooses his words carefully.
โ€œI am?โ€ Your eyes brighten a bit at his words.
He turns back to you and nods, his hood shifting a bit with his movement, revealing a bit more of his hair. The white streak catches your attention.ย 
โ€œI have to confess itโ€™sโ€ฆ cute the amount of trouble you manage to get yourself into. Itโ€™s entertaining to see what you get up to, how you treat others, what you desire out of life.โ€ His eyes move to look into yours. โ€œYour mentality is quite unique, as well. You see dying as natural and not something to be feared, but I think you've accepted it to anโ€ฆ abnormal degree." He paused. "...You're the first person in a very long time to not express fear of me.โ€
โ€œWhy would anyone be afraid? You're only doing your job... and you're quite nice."ย 
He laughs, the deep rumble of his voice goes straight to your knees. "I think you're the first person to ever call the God of Death โ€˜niceโ€™. You wouldn't believe the amount of people that fear me, even before their time is up. It's... exhausting, really. I can always hear their prayers, their cries, their pleads.โ€
"I mean I canโ€™t blame them, I just can't share the same sentiment, especially with all the conversations that we've had."
He smiles at you, โ€œYou really are like a breath of fresh air. Itโ€™s nice to know that someone doesnโ€™t hate me.โ€ He pauses again, a soft look in his eyes. โ€œBut you should still be careful. You're not made of rubber after all. Donโ€™t let me take you earlier than I should.โ€
โ€œThat doesnโ€™t sound too bad, though.โ€
โ€œWhat?โ€ In such a short time, youโ€™ve shocked him again.
โ€œI wouldnโ€™t mind dying knowing that you'll be the one waiting for me.โ€ You say it so casually, continuing to smile at him, as if it wasnโ€™t the sweetest thing anyoneโ€™s ever uttered to him. His heart beats a little faster as he stares down at you, stupefied.ย 
โ€œYou canโ€™t mean that.โ€ He replies after a while.ย 
โ€œWhy wouldnโ€™t I?โ€
Heโ€™s speechless, dumb-founded. How could he possibly begin to explain that the idea of anyone liking him enough to allow him to take them from this world so happily was absurd?
โ€œWhat?โ€ You ask, noticing his sudden silence. โ€œWhyโ€™s that so strange? I like talking to you, and when Iโ€™m in the afterlife you would keep me company, right?โ€
He lets out a breath and smiles a bit, the whites of his teeth peeking out behind the pink of his lips. โ€œIโ€™d be lying if I said that didnโ€™t sound appealing.โ€
โ€œGood.โ€ You smile a little wider, your eyes crinkling as it makes his heart begin to race now.ย 
โ€œI-I should get going, thereโ€™s uh- souls I need to get to.โ€ He stutters out.
โ€œYeah, that sounds important. I should clean up with water. Iโ€™ll see you around uhโ€ฆ Mister Grim Reaper, sir.โ€
He lets out an amused huff. โ€œJason. Just call me Jason.โ€
โ€œWill do.โ€ You jokingly salute him, and it makes him let out another chortle.ย 
โ€œAlright, farewell then.โ€ He nods, before blinking out of your kitchen.ย 
You stare at the space he used to occupy for a bit, still smiling softly, before leaving to get a mop - and maybe a change of clothes.
Tumblr media
โ€œAre you sure itโ€™s okay for you to be here?โ€ You ask him, raising an eyebrow as you stare at him from the couch.ย 
โ€œYes.โ€ He replies simply, his eyes and attention focus on the movie playing on your TV.
His visits have been more and more frequent lately, ever since the conversation the both of you shared in your kitchen. Now, Death, who prefers the name Jason, shows up even if you didnโ€™t go through another life-threatening event.ย 
And right in this moment, Jason is standing in front of your couch, entirely enraptured by Pretty Woman, of all things.ย 
โ€œDonโ€™t you have to do your duty? Iโ€™m sure thereโ€™s a lot of lost, wandering souls right now.โ€ You try again, concerned.ย 
โ€œWhat? You donโ€™t want me here?โ€
โ€œI didnโ€™t say that!โ€ You put your hands up in defense. โ€œI just donโ€™t want you to get in trouble or something. Wonโ€™t Hades or the Fates orโ€ฆ whoever your superior is get angry?โ€
โ€œProbably.โ€ He shrugs. โ€œBut what are they going to do? Kill me?โ€ He casts you a glance from the corner of his eyes, before going back to the movie. โ€œBesides, souls canโ€™t leave the mortal body without me being there. Theyโ€™ll just rest for a bit, I can always come get them after.โ€
โ€œI guess thatโ€™s fine then.โ€ You sigh out. โ€œCould you at least sit down?โ€ย 
Jason lets out a nod, before moving to the couch, taking a seat beside you but still keeping his distance.ย 
He watches the rest of the movie in silence beside you, enjoying your company. His eyes flick over to admire you a few times, taking in your immersed gaze and noticing the way youโ€™re clutching a plushie so close to you (cute). When you sniffle, when a few tears trail down your face, when your parted lips form a pout at the ending, his heart pumps hard in his chest.ย 
This was a much better use of his time.ย 
Tumblr media
โ€œYou have so many books.โ€ Jason states, his figure crouched so that he could properly read all the titles. His hood is off, fully revealing his soft, dark hair - the white streak a beautiful contrast.ย 
โ€œWhoโ€™s the observant one, now?โ€ You chuckle from your place on the bed, eyes not leaving the novel in your hands.ย 
He rolls his eyes, โ€œWhat are you reading?โ€
โ€œPride and Prejudice.โ€ You hum softly, eyes still scanning the page.ย 
โ€œWhatโ€™s that about?โ€ Jason asks, walking away from the bookshelf and towards you.ย 
โ€œUh, itโ€™s a little complicated.โ€ You murmur, โ€œBut basically itโ€™s two people learning to get over their, well, pride and prejudices to fall in love.โ€ย 
He lets out a hum, โ€œRead it to me?โ€ย 
โ€œOh my Gods, youโ€™re so lucky, I just got to the best part.โ€ Your eyes watch him as he lays down beside you on your bed, the fabric of his black cloak pooling around his body.ย 
โ€œElizabeth was surprised, but said not a word. After a silence of several minutes, he came towards her in an agitated manner, and thus began: โ€˜In vain I have struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.โ€™ Elizabethโ€™s astonishment was beyond expression.โ€ย 
Jason turned to his side in order to get a better view of you. He watches how your eyes practically light up as you read, a smile gracing your face. He canโ€™t help but think how pretty you look like this.ย 
โ€œShe stared, coloured, doubted, and was silent. This he considered sufficient encouragement; and the avowal of all that he felt, and had long felt for her, immediately followed. UGH, itโ€™s so romantic!โ€ You yell out, clutching the book to your chest and rolling back and forth slightly, making him let out a chuckle at your antics. โ€œI mean at this point in the book I still hate Darcy but Gods, the way itโ€™s written is just so good!โ€ย 
He falls silent for a bit, his gaze affectionate as he watches you. โ€œHey, can I ask you something?โ€
You stop your giddy reactions, looking at him curiously. โ€œYeah, what is it?โ€
โ€œDo you remember when you said you wanted to be with me in the afterlife?โ€
โ€œHm? Yeah, why?โ€
He took a deep breath. "Let's say... let's just pretend for a moment, that when you die... I don't guide you to the afterlife. Instead, I take you somewhere else with me."
You sit up slightly, pushing yourself up on your arms, turning your body to face him. โ€œWhere would we go?โ€ You set your book aside on the nightstand.ย 
โ€œToโ€ฆ my home. I have a residence on the outskirts of Tartarus. You would be safe there, I can make sure that nothing would bother you.โ€ He sits up fully, grabbing and holding your hands gently. โ€œPlease, I want you to stay with me. I get so lonely, and I just- I like being around you.โ€ His tone is soft, pleading and sincere as he confesses his desires to you.
You smile back at him, eyes crinkling softly in that way that heโ€™s come to adore. โ€œIโ€™d like that.โ€
โ€œReally?โ€ He gasps out, face mirroring yours as a bright smile overtakes his features.
โ€œMhm,โ€ You hum, โ€œItโ€™ll take some time, though.โ€
He shakes his head, hands gripping yours a bit tighter, โ€œI would wait the entire rest of eternity for you, if I had to.โ€
โ€œWell, Iโ€™ll be sure to not make you wait that long.โ€ You giggle out.
โ€œIโ€™d hope not. I want to have you with me, I want to keep you around until the end of time itself.โ€ย 
โ€œI think thatโ€™s the most romantic thing anyones ever said to me, Jay.โ€ Your tone is light, teasing.ย 
โ€œThereโ€™s a catch though,โ€ He pauses, hesitant to see your reactions. โ€œYou wonโ€™t be able to leave the house or see anyone else. I canโ€™t risk you getting found. B-but I get you anything you need, I can make you happy.โ€
โ€œThat sounds just fine to me.โ€ย 
His eyes glisten in happiness, a bright shine in them. โ€œThen... it's settled. I will take you to my home, and you will stay with meโ€ฆ forever.โ€ His glances down to your lips for a second, before quickly looking back into your eyes.ย 
You notice the movement, heart beating a bit faster.
โ€œCould I kiss you?โ€ He whispers, his voice low and warm.ย 
โ€œYeah,โ€ You mumble back.
He leans in closer, hands releasing yours as one places itself on the small of your back, pulling you closer to his body as the other gently grips your chin. He leans down, tilting your head up until he feels the soft press of his lips to yours. Warmth floods his body as he feels electricity in the air, and he feels his heart pound behind his ribcage when your own arms wrap around his neck.
Your touch, your taste, was addicting. You were tender and sweet, and Jason never wanted this moment to end. He groans when he feels your hand begin to play with his hair, and he presses himself closer to you, both hands moving to grip your waist.ย 
His grip tightened on you as your kiss intensified, his body started to tremble as it filled with a desire so deep that it was all-consuming.ย 
Eventually you break apart from him, needing air. He dismays at having to pull away, but allows you to do so.
"If that's what's waiting for me at the end of my life, maybe I do want to die soonerโ€ฆโ€ You joke, breathless.
He groans again, โ€œDonโ€™tโ€ฆ donโ€™t say that. Donโ€™t tempt me, I canโ€™t take it.โ€ He presses his forehead to yours, both of your breaths mingling together.
You giggle, pulling him in by the back of his neck to kiss him again. He relents easily, his heart skipping when you hum softly against his lips, the desire in his body igniting higher and higher.ย 
Eventually, heโ€™s the one to pull away, his breath tickling you as he trails his nose against your neck. He can feel the soft tremor in your breath as your body shivers against his. โ€œCan we go further?โ€ He murmurs into the skin.
โ€œYeah, I want more.โ€ You nod.
โ€œGood, I do too. I want all of you.โ€ He begins to press his lips to your neck, lightly leaving kisses and bites that you have squirming and gasping.ย 
โ€œYou have me.โ€
โ€œYou donโ€™t understand.โ€ He shakes his head. โ€œYou... you don't know how much I've been longing for you. Your presence alone gives me joy. Having you touch meโ€ฆ it makes my heart pound and my body melt. The way you talk, the sounds you make... itโ€™s perfect. I want to touch you. I want to hold you. I want to know everything about you. I want all of you.โ€
โ€œYou can have that tooโ€ฆโ€ You sighed out.ย 
โ€œYou drive me crazy.โ€ He groans, leaning close again to kiss you deeply, caressing the sides of your body. He wasn't holding back anymore. He couldn't. He wanted you so much that it ached in his bones. His hands started sliding slowly but surely, caressing your back and waist. He couldn't get enough of you, and your bodyโ€™s twitching and the sound of your heavy breaths was such a thrilling sensation that he was consumed by it entirely.
โ€œJasonโ€ฆโ€ You pant out his name as you experimentally grind your body against his, whining when you feel his hard cock rub against your clothed cunt, your hands holding him tighter.ย 
The sound drove him crazy with arousal, his body wracked with longing. You felt so good and he couldn't help but lean into you more, allowing you to press against him over and over and over. The feeling of heat was flooding his entire being, his cock throbbing beneath his cloak.
He worships the feeling of you grinding against him for a few more moments, his breath coming out in husky pants before he rolls you onto your back, hovering above you.ย 
"Just be a good girl and let me do all the work, now." His voice is husky, needy, as he leaned down and kissed your neck again, his breath hot and his body trembling with anticipation.ย 
You whine again, rubbing your thighs together to relieve the sudden ache between them. Your eagerness spurs him on, he presses a peck to your cheek before sitting back on his knees to gaze down at you.ย 
โ€œGods, youโ€™re gorgeous.โ€ He mutters, his hand slips up your shirt a little, and he shivers at the instant warmth of your skin. โ€œCan I take this off?โ€
You nod rapidly, quickly pulling off your top and tossing it aside, revealing yourself to him.
Jason responds by leaning down to litter kisses over your body, a flush on his cheeks. His lips are soft and reverent almost as they softly touch your heated skin. He takes your nipple into his mouth sucking slightly, as a hand comes up to tweak and roll the other one.ย 
โ€œJayโ€ฆโ€ You call out his name, your back arching slightly,ย  and he never wants to stop hearing your voice.ย 
โ€œI got you, princess.โ€
He lowers his mouth, trailing down your body until he reaches the hem of your bottoms. โ€œCan I take this off, too?โ€ย 
โ€œDo anything you want, Jay.โ€ You breathe out, head dizzy with your need.
โ€œYou sure?โ€ He asks, fingers hooking into both your pajama pants and underwear, dragging them down your body, uncovering inch after inch of your naked body.ย 
You look like a dream under him, eyes blown with lust, lips parted, body bare for him as you nod. He sets your clothes aside, going back to relishing you.ย 
You look away softly from embarrassment, โ€œYou take off your clothes, tooโ€ฆโ€
Your shyness got to him and he could help but laugh softly. You were so cute. He took a step back and off the bed, pulling off his cloak. He could feel your eyes watching his every movement, could feel your eyes rake his form as you settled on the bed.ย 
His gold adornments drop to the floor with a โ€˜clunkโ€™, quickly followed by his black trousers.ย 
โ€œYouโ€™re so beautiful.โ€ You softly praise. You canโ€™t help but to stare at him, eyes lingering on every sculpted muscle or coloured scar of his frame.ย 
He couldn't help but feel like you were the beautiful one. The way your eyes traveled over his body made his heart beat fast. He felt like he was on top of the world, knowing you admired him.
He climbs back onto the bed, taking his place between your legs as he lays on his stomach. His hands come to grip around your thighs, pulling you closer to him.ย 
โ€œOh.โ€ You gasp slightly at the intimate position, gulping as your blood pumps faster through your veins.ย 
He slides a hand down towards your cunt, already slick for him. A thumb parts your swollen lips as he gently glides it up and down, before pressing it against your sensitive bud.ย 
โ€œAh-โ€ You moan oh so sweetly for him, hips twitching as he starts rubbing your pretty clit. Your body was so responsive to him, and it makes a grin break onto his face.ย 
He brings his thumb away, making you frown before replacing it with his mouth, lips wrapped around the nub.ย 
โ€œW-wait!โ€ You cry out, hands flying into his hair as you do your best to not buck into his face. He smirked around you, starting to suck despite your call. Your reaction only added fuel to the fire burning inside him, your writhing body and shaky gasps were too much for him to handle.ย 
โ€œItโ€™s okay, sweetheart, just let yourself feel good.โ€ He mumbles into your cunt before going back to sucking and lapping at you. He holds you close to his face, his grip firm to keep you as still as he could.ย 
He groans as you tug at his roots, the sound vibrating around your needy clit. Your desperate moans and whispers drove him crazy. He liked how fast you were breathing, how much you were moving. You were a squirming, twitching mess underneath him as the sensation became too overwhelming.
โ€œJason, oh my Gods.โ€ You gasp.
โ€œIโ€™m your only God, now, right? Just meโ€ฆโ€ His hand moves to your fluttering hole, slowly pressing two fingers inside you. They slip in easily with how wet you are, dripping your desire down his wrists. He feels you clamp down on them, slick walls sucking him in further.
โ€œJason, Jay!โ€ His name slips from your lips like a chant, a prayer wrapped in shallow breaths.ย 
โ€œKeep saying my name just like that, pretty girl.โ€ He loves the way you make it sound, loves the way you say it. Not Grip Reaper. Not Death. Just Jason. Your Jason.ย 
โ€œOh, Jayโ€ฆโ€ You breathe out his name like youโ€™re struggling to even think.
โ€œYouโ€™re such a sensitive thing, arenโ€™t you?โ€ He coos, starting to move his fingers in and out of you. He smirks when you squeal as he curls his fingers up, pressing against that soft, vulnerable spot inside you. His arm moves to keep you down, pinning your hips to the bed as he goes back to tasting you.
โ€œN-not there!โ€
โ€œWhy not? Doesnโ€™t it feel good?โ€
โ€œItโ€™s too much!โ€ Youโ€™re breathless, barely able to gasp out replies as he keeps abusing that spot inside you.ย 
โ€œDo you want me to stop?โ€ Jason slows his pace, fingers dragging painfully slow against your aching, slick walls, making you let out a needy mewl, clenching on him.ย 
โ€œNo! P-please donโ€™t.โ€ You pout, softly tugging at his head to turn his attention fully on you.ย 
โ€œSay my name. Tell me what you want.โ€
You hesitate a bit, pondering your words. โ€œMake me feel good, Jason. Make me cum.โ€ Your tone is so soft and pleading, itโ€™s the best worship heโ€™s ever heard.ย 
The only prayers heโ€™s ever heard were cries for his absence, beseeching his very being and purpose, but with you - heโ€™s found a new one. You want him, you want him closer, you want him to make you feel bliss. He can do that. Heโ€™ll do anything for his most devout follower, heโ€™ll worship you twice as much as you ever could him.ย 
He dives back down with a fervor, thick fingers working you quickly, the soft squelches increasing in volume and frequency. His tongue traces your clit, sucking and rolling and indulging in the way you writhe and whimper below him.ย 
He keeps going as you squirm uncontrollably, as your body tenses further and further, as your eyes glaze over and your heart pounds. Your nerves are frayed and begging for relief as the soft warmth of his tongue doesnโ€™t let up. Your grip on his hair tightens, making him grunt low and husky into you.ย 
โ€œJason, mโ€™gonnaโ€ฆ can I please-?โ€ You can barely make out full sentences, head fuzzy and blood searing as the dam inside you threatens to break.ย 
โ€œYou donโ€™t have to ask, just do it.โ€™ He murmurs; his cock throbs in his garments, waiting for you to release on his tongue.ย 
The feeling overtakes you, making you choke out a shaky cry as you climax. Your thighs squeezes his head, fingers buried deep into his dark locks as you tremble. Youโ€™re lightheaded and breathless and euphoria has settled in every inch of your veins.ย 
Jason removes his fingers, gripping your thigh as his mouth slots against your leaking cunt as he engulfs his tongue into your taste. He greedily laps up your slick, moaning as it blooms over his tongue - more sweet and addictive than even ambrosia.ย 
Your cries are so adorable as he continues to seek out every last drop of cum from you, your body pliant and weak below him as you keen and mew.ย 
โ€œJ-Jayโ€ฆโ€ You stutter out his name as your body twitches, sensitivity kicking in.ย 
โ€œYes, love?โ€ He barely pauses to utter out those words, mind set on devouring you whole.ย 
โ€œC-canโ€™t!โ€ He frowns, giving you one last lick before pulling himself away from you.
His eyes are filled with a feral like need, mouth smeared and shiny with the aftermath of your arousal. โ€œDid that feel good?โ€ He husks out, โ€œYou looked so divine, cumming.โ€™
Youโ€™re panting hard under him, mind dizzy as you process his words, nodding in reply.
โ€œI want to make you feel that way for the rest of eternity, youโ€™ll let me right? Youโ€™ll stay with me?โ€ Now that heโ€™s had you, he doesnโ€™t think he can survive on his own anymore.ย 
โ€œY-yeah, Jay.โ€ You nod again, voice small.ย 
He raises himself up, licking you off his hand before he crawls over your body again. His legs slot between yours, tangling the both of you together. He leans down, sighing out in satisfaction as your damp, warm skin presses into his.ย 
His lips brush over yours, silently asking for permission to kiss you again. You accept him willingly, hands drifting to hang loose around his neck as you push your lips to his.
He groans, hand gripping your waist and the other running through your hair as he explores your mouth. You can taste yourself on him, spit mixing together as he groans into your lips.ย 
He pulls back, both your breaths lingering in the small space between your faces. He trails his nose down to the sensitive skin of your neck, teeth dragging lightly across the flesh.ย 
โ€œI want all of you, so bad.โ€ He groans. โ€œIโ€™ll do anything for you. Can you tell me Iโ€™m yours?โ€
He so desperately wants to belong to you - to know that one day youโ€™ll accompany him in the deepest pits of Tartarus - that youโ€™ll never let him be alone again.ย 
โ€œYou want to be mine?โ€ Your tone is puzzled, words ending in a lilt.ย 
โ€œPlease.โ€
You smile, hands coming to hold his face, thumbs gently caressing his cheeks. โ€œWho knew the God of Death would be so needy?โ€ You tease.
โ€œYou try being alone and hated since the dawn of existence.โ€ He sighs, melting into your touch. His eyes close, leaning into your palms.ย 
You giggle a bit. โ€œWe can be each other's.โ€ Your lips break out into a grin as you bring his face down to yours, pressing pecks all over.ย 
He relishes your kisses, letting out a deep, happy sigh. His cock is still painfully hard, straining against his boxers, but he tries to ignore it. He opens his eyes and brushes your stray hair behind your ears, slightly damp with your sweat.ย 
โ€œJay,โ€ You murmur his name, pulling back to look at him, โ€œI want more.โ€
โ€œMore? You want me to eat you out again?โ€ His mouth salivates at the thought of having your taste on his tongue again. Heโ€™ll do anything you ask.ย 
You shake your head, thumbs rubbing along his cheekbones, โ€œI want you to fuck me, Jay.โ€ย ย 
โ€œYou do? Are you sure?โ€ He whispers.ย 
His breath hitches as you nod, blinking up at him with those pretty eyes of yours.ย 
โ€œI wanna feel you, Jay. J-just go slow, Iโ€™m still sensitive.โ€
โ€œYouโ€™re sensitive?โ€ He huffs out an amused breath, smiling softly. โ€œDonโ€™t worry, Iโ€™ll take good care of you. Iโ€™ll make sure of it.โ€
You try to press your thighs together, getting excited by his promises and husky tone. He feels your legs shift around his, smirking as he takes in your desperate body language.ย 
He shifts back again, tugging his boxers down. Your eyes trail to his now exposed cock, standing proud and flushed and daunting.ย 
Heโ€™sโ€ฆ. big.ย 
Your jaw drops a little as you take him in, your mind reeling with thoughts of โ€œWill it fit?โ€.
โ€œHm? Donโ€™t worry. I said I was going to take care of you.โ€ Jason murmurs, voice adoring. He positions himself back between your legs, hands lifting your legs to encourage them to wrap around his waist. You willingly follow his guidance.ย 
His hands come to hold your hips steady, hips canting forwards to rub the head of his cock through your folds. โ€œAre you ready?โ€
โ€œYeah,โ€ You reply softly, hands drifting to lay on top of his, gently grabbing his wrists.ย 
He pushes inside of you, pace steady and measured as he tries his best to let you adapt to him.
โ€œOhmyfuckโ€ฆโ€ You slur, words mushing together as you feel him stretch you out. You grip him a bit tighter.ย 
โ€œJust relax, pretty girl.โ€ He mutters, thumbs rubbing circles into your skin to calm you down. He continues pushing himself inside you, making you feel every ridge and detail and inch. Itโ€™s slow and deliberate; heโ€™s savoring watching the way your cunt sucks him in, the way your head tilts back, how shallow and quick your breaths have gotten. โ€œCan you feel it? Am I too big for you?โ€ He teases, eyes shining with both mischief and affection. He pushes forwards again.ย 
Your pussy flutters around the girth of him, slick pouring out with every second, making the process that much smoother.ย 
You try to take deep breaths, groaning softly as you feel the way he bullies into you, nestling deep inside.ย 
โ€œSโ€™it in yet?โ€ You hiccup.
He chuckles softly, you were just so endearing. He was taking his time, enjoying the feeling of you. โ€œItโ€™s not even halfway yet, baby.โ€ He coos.ย 
โ€œS-still?โ€ Your eyes widen a bit, as he laughs again.
โ€œJust lay down and take it, princess. Iโ€™ll do everything, donโ€™t think about a thing.โ€ He leans down and silences your whimpers with a kiss. His lips lock onto yours as he swallows your moans, moving his hips until he feels you flushed against him.ย 
He pulls back, body once more shadowing over yours. His eyes drift down to where the two of you connect. โ€œLook at that, she took me all in. I told you that you didnโ€™t need to fret, love.โ€ย 
โ€œA-ah, itโ€™s so deepโ€ฆโ€ You mumble.ย 
โ€œIsnโ€™t it?โ€ He grins.ย 
He starts to move back and forth, instantly groaning at the intoxicating sensation of you wrapped warm and snug around his pulsing cock.ย 
He keeps his pace slow, staying true to his promise. He doesnโ€™t mind though, heโ€™s just relishing in every little detail of you, burning the memory of how you look, feel, and sound into his mind - a treasure for eons to come.ย 
Youโ€™re moaning uncontrollably, hands moving to grip at his biceps, nails digging slightly into the skin. He grunts, liking the shark twang of pain that shoots through his body.ย 
He can feel you clamping around him desperately, like your body needed more. Youโ€™re so wet and sloppy, he can feel your slick smearing on his thighs with every thrust.ย 
โ€œFeels sโ€™good, baby.โ€ He groans, and immediately he feels you clench on him again. โ€œDid you like that?โ€ He grins.ย 
โ€œUh-huh,โ€ You nod dumbly, eyes unfocused as whines spill from your throat.ย 
โ€œMy pretty girl likes it when I praise her, huh?โ€ The next words flow from him easily, heโ€™s venerated you so much in his mind already that the flattery comes easy. He wants you to know exactly what you make him feel. โ€œYouโ€™re so fucking perfect for me, youโ€™re everything Iโ€™ve ever wanted.โ€ย 
Everytime he bottoms out you can feel him in your throat.
โ€œJ-Jayโ€ฆโ€
Your bodies blend together, waves of pleasure overtaking you both with each long stroke. You can feel every inch and vein and crevice of him pushing against your sensitive walls.ย 
He continues speaking. โ€œYou make me fall apart so easily, my love. I want to give you my everything. Iโ€™ll be at your disposal from now on, you can do whatever you want with my body, as long as you stay by my side.โ€ His tone is deep, dripping with lust. โ€œYour pretty pussy takes me so well, itโ€™s like you were made for my cock, yeah?โ€
A shiver of arousal runs through your body at his speech, lower body getting hotter. You feel like youโ€™re surrounded by lava, melting and wound tight all at once.ย 
โ€œYour body is so beautiful, I don't want anyone else to touch you; I want you only for myself.โ€ His hands lift your hips up a little, his cock pressing inside even deeper than before, making you let out a yelp.ย 
Heโ€™s hitting every good spot inside you, knocking the breath from your lungs even with his sensual pace. You feel constant spurts of warmth pouring out of you, and you notice just how soaked the mattress is beneath your shivering body.ย 
โ€œAre you enjoying yourself, love?โ€
โ€œS-so much, Jay,โ€ You whine out, clutching him harder.ย 
โ€œGood, I want to be the only one that can make you feel like this.โ€ย ย 
Each rock of his hips gets you higher and higher, dangling on the edge of release. The glide of him is so smooth and sweet as he drags against you.
โ€œMโ€™gonna cum, Jay.โ€ You sigh out, voice high and whiny.
โ€œGood girl, go on and soak my cock. Show me just how much youโ€™re enjoying this.โ€ย 
A few more more moments and youโ€™re letting go, gripping his biceps hard as elation sinks deep into your bones. A sob of his name escapes your parted lips, body tingly and twitchy as endorphins rush through your veins. He groans as he feels your slick walls convulse around him. His grip on your waist tightens momentarily as he pulls out, his cum instantly spilling onto your stomach. Relief floods his system as he pants hard, chest heaving as he catches his breath.ย 
The both of you bask in the afterglow of your climaxes, the soft sound of breathing drifting on the heated air. Jason thinks you look divine with your hair spread on the bed, his seed marking your skin as sweat glistens your body. You think the view of him above you, satisfaction prominent on his face, is just as sacred.ย 
When Jasonโ€™s body settles he gently slides out of you, smiling apologetically at your small wince. He goes to your bathroom, having memorized the layout of your house from all the times heโ€™s visited you. He returns with a damp towel, mournfully wiping his traces off of you. He throws the rag into your laundry basket, crawling beside you in bed and pulling you into his chest.
โ€œHow ya doing, princess?โ€ He whispers into your hair.
You give him a small, happy hum in return, scooting yourself even closer into him.ย 
"You're so soft," He mumbles, nuzzling into you. "This is where I want us to stay, for eternity. Nothing else, forever."
โ€œThat sounds perfect, Jay.โ€ You reply, yawning slightly.ย 
Jasonโ€™s smile grows even wider, his arms tightening around you. He looks down at you with an adoring gaze, your warm and tender body slotting perfectly against his. "There is nothing, and no one in this world that I want more than you, my dearest."

dating dacre was nothing short of a dream. he always made you feel so at ease. he loved how creative you were - the perfect match to his inner theatre kid. taking him to fashion exhibitions + poetry slams, and the actor inviting you to theatre shows, seeing the world through each othersโ€™ eyes made the time together even more precious. you first met at a ballet show. he had been dragged to see it by a few of his castmates, but was more so enjoying the bts view of you with the dancers. you were backstage fitting all the dancers and making sure they were all comfortable in what you styled. he managed to peek behind the curtain and saw your beautiful, so focused on draping the fabric of the leadโ€™s skirt.
fuck, you were fine.
but he didnโ€™t think much of it, just some cute guy, with beautiful eyes, who probably had a boyfriend. he took his seat and watched it with his friends. one of them was engaged to one of the dancers and so took dacre to the dressing rooms after the show. after introducing the two of you, yโ€™all were practically drooling over each other. barely a word was said between you, but your heartsโ€™ communicated greater feelings than mere speech ever could. they say love at first sight is something for the big screen, but your initial encounter rivalled the biggest stories of romance any writer could ever craft.
from that night, you practically were together, with the tabloids plastering the two of you holding hands, yachting in capri. the pop culture side of twitter was OBSESSED with your relationship to the actor and was in constant awe with how perfect you guys were for each other.
y/nsupremacy: you guys make my heart smile
user111: theyโ€™d make such cute babies
dacrefanclub6: sexiest couple on the internet
there was even a time where he had to do a nude scene in an upcoming blockbuster and the whole world saw how much your man was packing. in his press tour, the panel of interviewers didnโ€™t shy away from your bfโ€™s HUGE deal, some even made inappropriate comments.
โ€˜god bless bottoms like y/n, he be taking that shit better than a pornstarโ€™
โ€˜poor y/n, how does that thing even fit?โ€™
โ€˜checks outโ€ฆbig booty bitches y/n deserves to be fucked by hung men.โ€™
dacre was afraid that you would feel uncomfortable with the constant media comments on your thickness, but he had nothing to fear. you embraced it, you were said to have the best bod in fashion. as much as he tried to keep his life with you private, he lowkey wanted to let the world know that how much of a good boy you were for him.
dacre: โ€˜in all fairness i ainโ€™t had any complaints from him soโ€ฆโ€™
dacre: โ€˜butโ€ฆour neighbours definitely hate us.โ€™ he remarks with a devilish grin.
everyone was rooting for your relationship, and what better way to show this than him enlisting the joint troops of your fandoms to surprise you whilst you were working in paris. he had gotten some time away from filming and decided to come and visit your atelier in paris. sprawled out on your desk, with needles and materials adorning the creative canvas of the room, he saw you hard at work. with the same vein poking through your forehead as the first time he laid eyes on your angelic physique, he couldโ€™ve fallen in love all over again.
โ€˜hey babeโ€™ he came up to you with flowers. โ€˜you look ravishing tonightโ€™ rolling his rโ€™s with a tenacity that made you smile. his tone always made you feel so safe.
โ€˜i ainโ€™t even dressed yet,โ€™ you protest, dusting off the loose threads and sequins from your sweats. โ€˜youโ€™re beautiful in whatever you wear,โ€™ coming closer and gripping underneath your butt, โ€˜even prettier with less on.โ€™ dacre quips as his lips tickle your ear.
โ€˜dacre stop,โ€™ you laugh out. โ€˜that giggle of yours is so infectious.โ€™ he crashes his lips into you, the flowers dropping haphazardly onto the desk as he pushed his tongue deeper.
he was wearing the blazer you had designed for his birthday last year, paired with a pendant necklace with the first initial of your name on it. he looked so sexy. โ€˜canโ€™t seem to keep my hands off off of you.โ€™ he breathed, nudging his jacket off.
โ€˜nuh uh, we have dinner reservations.โ€™ nudging him away.
โ€˜fuck. whyโ€™d you gotta be so damn sexy?โ€™ he sounded aggravated but you pecked him again, โ€˜donโ€™t worry, i am all yours tonight.โ€™
taking you to the balcony of a quaint, parisian bistro, the chill of the capitalโ€™s air made the two of you even more enamoured, your hearts burning passionately. whilst eating, you got some sauce on the corner of your lips, as he pushes it back into your mouth. โ€˜gotta get you used to the feeling of a foreign object in your mouth before tonight, donโ€™t i?โ€™ dacre always loved being dirty in public and you made sure to satiate his exhibitionist kink.
after many glasses of wine, you made your way to the louvre. with your many contacts you managed to snag an after hours tour - solo. you were much more of a lightweight than your boyfriend (the man could drink like a pirate and be even more chipper than before) and you couldnโ€™t walk in a straight line for more than a few metres. he let you go so he could see your figure and admire it from afar, but as soon as he saw you stumble, dacreโ€™s hand on your waist guided you to safety and sobriety.
yโ€™all ran throughout the museum, finally landing and kissing in front of the mona lisa. it was such a picturesque moment. the taxi ride back to the hotel was such a fever dream, yโ€™all were all over each other, your chauffeur knew well to close the barrier and give you two some alone time.
โ€˜have i ever told you how beautiful you are?โ€™ he says slurring his speech.
โ€˜tell me againโ€ฆโ€™ you implored.
โ€˜the most beautiful boy in the world.โ€™ he reassured, pulling you in as the city of paris lit up, illuminating your eyes.
you called him an โ€˜eager beaverโ€™ as dacre stumbled the two of you into the hotel you were staying at. he grunts between kisses,โ€˜you know you love me.โ€™ serving you with another peck. he stripped your clothes as you followed suit with his own, leaving a chasm of fabric in the corner of the room.
only your shared jewellery was left to remove. you fell back seductively onto the mattress. as dacre crawled on top of you with a dark lust growing in his eyes, you pulled him by the pendant around his neck.
the muscular man laid atop of you, placing each hand on the bed at dip of your waist, using his palms as a fulcrum to steady himself. you glanced down to see the light reflecting off his abs as they danced on the curves of your body.
โ€˜youโ€™re so beautiful.โ€™ he whispered, kissing your cheek and cupping your face.
he lifted himself from your figure, grabbing your thighs and placing your feet at either side of his head.
kissing your legs softly โ€˜so fucking soft.โ€™ he moaned into your skin. his dick was throbbingly red, precum glazing his cock as he slowly thigh fucked you. he folded his arms around your plush knees, and kept that pace, your fingers grazing his cock head each time it escaped the warm walls of your inner thighs. to your annoyance, he kept this up for what felt like forever. halting, you felt his rock length graze your hole.
โ€˜dacre, put it in already!โ€™ you said with overstimulated passion, earning a snicker from your boyfriend.
knowing that you were beginning to grow impatient, he caresses the flesh of your abdomen. โ€˜look whoโ€™s eager now?โ€™ he smirked.
shut up,โ€™ stroking his happy trail with an endearment. you looked up at him and bit your lip. โ€˜I need you, please.โ€™ his mouth agape at you โ€˜of course baby.โ€™
he laced his fingers into yours. rocking slowly into you. his huge dick stretching you out slowly as the the dimly lit room made his ash blue eyes appear dark with lust.
โ€˜fuck, have i missed this pussyโ€™ rhetorically muttering. dacre began whispering sweet nothings into your ear:
โ€˜youโ€™re doing so well.โ€™
โ€˜taking it like my good little boy arenโ€™t you?โ€™
he made you so hot. lifting himself onto his toes, he angled himself directly into you, placing his entire weight on you. fucking down into your hole, your boyfriend was hitting nerves that had been neglected in his absence.
your sphincter began tightening around him, dacre knew what this meant - your release would soon follow. he started kissing your neck, and circled your left nipple with his thumb, goading your orgasm out of you as he started drilling a bit faster. dacre chased his own high begging you to finish with him whilst slurring his words.
โ€˜take it, baby itโ€™s all yours. UGHHHHHโ€™ he busted strongly inside you. his big balls slapped at your butt one last time, reassuring both of you that he had seeded you deeply. you came all over his chest, as he chuckled.
โ€˜love it when you paint me, thatโ€™s that sexy shit i like.โ€™ he praised giving you an eskimo kiss to calm you from my high.
โ€˜y/n,โ€™ he whispered, big spooning you.
โ€˜whatโ€™s wrong baby?โ€™ you sounded concerned, cradling his hand.
โ€˜nothing love, i just,โ€™ he paused hesitantly.
you turned back to face him. โ€˜what is it? you know you can tell me anything.โ€™
โ€˜I just need you to know how much i missed you,โ€™
โ€˜oh dacre, you already did an amazing job showing me.โ€™ You joke โ€˜I feel soโ€ฆenlightened right now.โ€™
he lets out a sad deep chuckle, turning to him and stroking his cheek โ€˜I missed you too.โ€™
he gripped your waist, taking your words as a source of comfort. pushing his tongue down your throat.
โ€˜ready for round two,โ€™ you say, massaging his dick with your palm, getting him ready.
โ€˜always.โ€™ he affirms, spanking your ass and turning you over. the first round was very much for your pleasure and to let you know that he had truly craved your body.
but seeing your coke bottle body all splayed out for him? it was here that dacreโ€™s beast was awoken.
โ€˜ass up for me baby.โ€™ he said guiding you to a more comfortable position. he massaged your thick cheeks and started eating you out. his large hands looked abysmally small in comparison to how juicy your ass was.
โ€˜I ainโ€™t gonna show you any mercy this time, you know the safe word, but i donโ€™t think weโ€™ll be needing it.โ€™ he muttered, kissing down your spine before impaling you.
โ€˜shitttt dacre, slow down.โ€™
โ€˜shut the fuck up and take that shit like the pretty, little cockwhore you are.โ€™ dacre degraded, knowing how much you loved his dom/aggressive nature almost as much as his softer side.
dacre began going ham on your poor hole. he stood up as he began pulling you into him from the edge of the bed. with one hand crossed against your cheek and the other in his hair, he had to compose himself - else he come to quickly.
he fucked into you at a painfully quick pace, but it felt so good having him take control. dacre slutted you out almost unconscious for a bit and you were brought back to earth as he hit your second hole.
โ€˜fuck baby,โ€™ โ€˜I will never get tired of that ass.โ€™ he said watching your thickness bounce against his abs. you started becoming more active, pushing back onto him for a heightened pleasure.
โ€˜shake it for daddy, theeeere ya go, thatโ€™s MY shit baby. FUUUUUUUCK.โ€™
โ€˜oh god, your dick is so good, dacre.โ€™ you moan out , which is enough to send him over the edge.
he came as your ass halted at his base. tightenibg around him he started breathing falteringly. โ€˜baby d-donโ€™t do that, shiiiiit.โ€™ he started leaking like a faucet. trying to thrust inside with some rhythm (to no avail), he collapsed on top of you.
โ€˜I love you so much.โ€™ you say breathlessly.
โ€˜the feeling is so mutual babe.โ€™ he kissed into your skin.
โ€˜y/n, youโ€™re so fucking wet,โ€™ he spoke under his breath. still inside that filled pussy of yours, his cum and your slick provided a juicy lubricant. as he pulled out, the cum oozing out of your wrecked hole pooled into his pubes and on the duvet cover. the two of you were completely oblivious to the mess, and cuddled in the filth youโ€™d created - a filth you were looking forward to adding to in the morning.

WE CANโ€™T BE FRIENDS
Oscar Piastri x Reader
Authorโ€™s Note: thereโ€™s a lot going on in this fic and I shouldโ€™ve probs split it into two so I could do the storyline justice, but Iโ€™m nothing if not slightly lazy so that never wouldโ€™ve worked. If you notice any mistakes please do let me know! Rn itโ€™s 2 am and my visions blurred so Iโ€™m gunna post and hope for the best
Iโ€™m actually gunna recommend songs for this fic!!tbh just listen to Willowโ€™s entire discography (apart from that one song with MGK) and if you want to give unholy a listen it is by Hey Violet (though I donโ€™t know if I like the song or not, but it says what I needed the fic to say) and of course All I Wanted Was You is paramore! I hope you enjoy

We sat with Y/N to talk about her new album and recent scandals surrounding the topics of her work. โ€œI just write songs; itโ€™s not my job to interpret them for people.โ€

โ†ณ user heโ€™s probably here bc of what she said in the interview
โ†ณ user wait i didnโ€™t watch everything, what did she say??
โ†ณ user so they asked how she felt about her exes being a popular topic on the internet, and so she said โ€œI just write songs; itโ€™s not my job to interpret them for people.โ€ they also asked about drew and whether theyโ€™re going to get back together (which, may i add, felt a little rude to me) and y/n replied with โ€œThose who Iโ€™m close with can reach me anytime. I tend to not focus on anyone else.โ€
โ†ณ user thank you for summarizing!! doing godโ€™s work fr ๐Ÿซก

โ†ณ user i doubt they wanted to hard launch at the vmas lol y/n was barely even in the audience, tbh i think she left early
โ†ณ user y/n has said before that award shows make her rlly anxious, so yea she probably didnโ€™t want too much attention on herself esp with all the drew drama
user did i miss something, i thought lando was still in ny? why didnโ€™t they just travel together?
โ†ณ user lando probs had to leave earlier bc practice started on friday, and y/n still had a few tv show performances which iโ€™m assuming is why she arrived today instead

Doppleganger/Skinwalker!Yandere x YN (AFAB)Summary: Your relationship with Kain has never been one of the best, but recently it's like you've been thrown off an abyss over and over again. Oh, and there's a dog too, but he's not important. Anywayโ€ฆ with a storm of emotions in your mind, you end up leaving a gap that a certain creature will take advantage of. Warnings: (Toxic relationships, obsessed relationships, mental manipulation, the smell of rot, description of death, description of fear and panic, a little sentimental smut, The thing loves you - too much.) Uncertain motives. Lots of couple fights and domestic violence, but YN defends herself and fights harder, this story takes place before chapter 1, you will now see what the original Kain was like.The term 'YN' and 'you' is used several times in the fanfic for better grammatical use, my first time writing something like this, so please be gentle. <3

Tumblr media
You think you saw something under the window.
It's something - you're sure.
But it's not important enough for you to give it your full attention. Not when you're fighting with Kain right now, it's probably about some nonsense, the two of you have been fighting for so long that you don't even remember what you're fighting about and Kain is getting more and more aggressive.
"I can't believe we're fighting about this, Kain! Your mother must have thrown the baby away and created the placenta instead, because there's no way you only understand what suits you!" you say louder, running your hands over your face in an irritated way.
Today was supposed to be the perfect date. It was your and Kain's anniversary and after missing the date 4 times, he finally agreed to go today. Of course, you got ready in a happy and relieved way, who knows if it was a sign of his change? You did a great job with your makeup, your hair looked like a celebrity blowout but the most beautiful thing is your beautiful black dress. This one accentuates each of your curves in an attractive and elegant way, with shiny details in some part and The high heels, a black sitelleto perfectly match the occasion, the black and transparent tights give a stylish air to the look. A wine-colored velvet bow is in your hair, giving an air of significant femininity.
And given the special occasion, you are finally wearing a beautiful set of accessories that you ordered online! You waited so long to receive it and today you will wear it for the first time! The necklace is a beautiful ruby โ€‹โ€‹choker with encrusted diamonds, combined exclusively with the button earrings of the same style.
Now, you can't leave the house without your black bag, huh? You chose this model yourself, padded and medium-sized, perfect for work and to use when going out. The black bag is a universal symbol of female independence, and of distrust of men. After all, a good partner should pay the bill and leave the girl at ease, right? That's what people are saying on the internet and Kain is your partner butโ€ฆ he's a delicate case.
You think twice before putting your wallet with cards and money in it, Kain paid the last few times but what ifโ€ฆ.... no. Don't think about it. He'll change. He promised.
Before leaving you listen to the voice in your head and put your wallet, lip gloss and documents in it.
Just in case.
And oh boy, thank God you listened.
*knock knock*
You hear him knock on your door, and as you walk down the halls, you check yourself in the mirror from head to toe and smile dreamily, happily, lightly, mentally praising yourself.
You look really beautiful today, YN
He appears at your door, smoking a cigarette while talking on his cell phone. He didn't give you a kiss. Just a look to confirm that you were in front of him and he threw the helmet in your hands, unceremoniously returning to the motorcycle.
The bike was beautiful, but dirty and Kain already smelled of cigarettes, his old jacket was stained with alcohol he had been drinking, you surreptitiously held your breath so as not to breathe in that terrible odor. Carefully, you slowly climbed on it so as not to get your dress dirty and abruptly, he started driving to what was supposed to be the romantic dinner he had promised at her favorite restaurant. Imagine the disappointment when a route was changed to a darker part of the city, but it was a small diner, a hot dog cart with a few tables around it. A slight embarrassment of being overdressed rose on your face, but you disguised it with a crooked smile as you cleaned the chair dirty with ketchup from the last person who had used the table.
โ€œHeya, YN, you look pretty good.โ€ he complimented you, sitting in the chair opposite yours.
โ€œThanks, Iโ€“โ€
โ€œYou donโ€™t mind if I call a few more friends, do you? Theyโ€™re nearby and I invited them to come eat with us.โ€
He interrupts you and confirms the call before you can say anything.
YN doesn't want to be immature, petty, or a boring little princess who doesn't want to have fun like he already said, so you just nod and mentally prepare yourself for the vision that arrives.
In less than 10 minutes, at least 6 more boys arriveโ€ฆ druggedโ€ฆ drunkโ€ฆ dirty with dirt and stained with oil. The group of brutes TAKES MORE CHAIRS AND TABLES around so they can all be together, the smell of sour and loud voices, words tangled with each other and insults are exchanged as a form of greeting.
Even the cook at the stall looks at this group of troublemakers with disdain, and when he realizes that you are there in the middle, he turns his head, confused, as if asking what you are doing there. And to be honest, at that moment you don't know either. The waiter quickly brings the menu to your table, which is already starting to attract the attention of other people.
"Good evening, what would you like?" the waiter says in a harsh tone, this group had caused problems before.
"Francis, old man, I'm surprised you're still here!" Kain exclaims with disdain. Last week, they unfairly involved the waiter in one of their scams, causing him to almost be fired.
"Thanks to my boss, I am, if it were up to you I would be out on the street like you good-for-nothings." he huffs irritably, grabbing his notebook
The group just laughs, as if nothing mattered, and orders drinks and hot dogs. Kain doesn't remember you, it's the waiter who stops by your side and asks in a softer voice.
"Would you like to order something now?"
"A juice with the number 2, please." You asked for the quickest thing to get out of there as quickly as possible, preferably something already prepared that they only had to heat up and you could leave.
"Of course, yours will be ready in a minute." The waiter quickly takes your order and leaves before the disgusting horde can get him in trouble again.
"Omg, YN, what a surprise you're here!" one of them exclaims, isn't that the one who hit his own mother?
"She wanted to go out today so I thought I could bring her with us." Kain doesn't let you answer, distorting the truth while laughing disgustingly with his friend next to him, the one who got out of prison last week.
Ouch.
You feel so small and dirty now, like a stunned cockroach on the floor, like a puppy that its owner conveniently takes for a walk. You don't know how, but somehow, some girls approach your table, flirting with the boys and with Kain himself. You ignore the feeling of neglect, disgust, and revolt and smile tightly, a thin line made entirely to disguise the tremendous discomfort you feel.
Sweet you, struggling to stay calm and hide your true feelings, try desperately to control your body and facial expression. Your hands remain static, despite being elegantly in your lap, and your breathing is controlled so as not to appear agitated, occasionally distracting yourself on your cell phone while you wait.
As you observe the scene in front of you, your face remains impassive, without any trace of apparent emotion. Inside, however, the storm of feelings continues to stir uncontrollably.
You want so much to leave there and cry, how could you have been so naive to believe that he would change? That today would be a special day? As if the universe was reaching out to you, the waiter soon delivered your orders, gently placing his hand on your shoulder and speaking softly in your ear.
โ€œIf you need anything else, we are at your disposal, missโ€, the staff was empathetic to your situation, your discomfort visible from miles away, you were there like a pearl among swine, a little princess in a horde of stinking goblins.
Kain interpreted it as if the waiter was flirting with you, in front of him, in front of his friends and the fight went on and on, he made advances on the waiter, the boys stole some things, security was calledโ€ฆ and finallyโ€ฆ being the only one with documents when security arrived, you paid the bill for the boysโ€™ losses and were forced to pay the bill for the snack as well, you angrily took your wallet out of your black bag. At that moment, you dropped your politeness and your princess pose and fought with Kain in front of everyone, calling a nearby motorcycle taxi to take you home.
You don't want to see Kain's face now.
You might break up today.
That's it.
That's it.
You're fed up.
You furiously take the bow out of your hair and throw it somewhere in the house as soon as you get home, your expensive high heels being thrown to some corner of the couch while you control your breathing, tears of frustration threatening to roll down your face but for all the self-respect you have left, you won't cry for him today. Your boyfriend, Kain, arrives a few minutes later, banging on the door incessantly as if he wanted to break it down.
And on the one hand, you were already pissed at him, but on the otherโ€ฆ if he came all the way hereโ€ฆ it means he cares, right? You open the door with expectation, only for them to be destroyed once again.
"Are you stupid or what?" he shouts, entering the house with all his steps stomping loudly in his muddy sneakers as if he were the owner of the house, and takes a big swig from his cheap beer can.
"Whatโ€ฆ?" You feel confused, is this son of a bitch blaming you?
โ€œI know.โ€
He throws the beer can on the floor when it's finished and marches towards you with arguments and points, blaming you for hitting on the waiter, for embarrassing him in front of his friends, for calling the security guard and for a million other facts that he created in his head.
It's never Kain's fault. It's the waiter's fault, the friend's fault, the police officer's fault, YOUR fault, but never his.
It seems like a joke.
A cruel joke in a circus that you didn't pay to enter.
But you paid, YN, you entered the circus and kissed the clown, now who's being made fun of?
"Kain, that's not how it happened." You confront him firmly on your position.
"Oh no? And that other time when youโ€”โ€
And whenever heโ€™s losing an argument, he brings up memories from the past to justify the nonsense of the present, like how he loves you so much that he picked you up from the hospital, how your father cheated on your mother, how his father is working a lot, that he helped you moveโ€ฆ.. it has nothing to do with todayโ€™s event, with todayโ€™s argument, but he wants to win this argument no matter what.
The argument doesnโ€™t make sense, but it escalates quickly, itโ€™s like airing dirty laundry, and you decide that if youโ€™re going to throw shit in the fan, youโ€™re going to throw it. Tonightโ€™s already terrible, letโ€™s end it on a high note.
The best cure for a crazy person is someone crazier than him. My mother used to say thatโ€ฆ. letโ€™s see for real?
Fuck this thing.
โ€œKain, do you practice at home to talk so much shit, or is everything that comes out of your mouth improvised?โ€ you gesture sarcastically, the words cutting more than a knife, like an acid that bubbles with the amount of anger inside you.
Snowball, the female cat you adopted a few weeks ago silently approaches the room where you are, crawling elegantly and meowing in retaliation to your boyfriend. The more upset your boyfriend gets, the more annoyed Snowball seems.
The cat, despite being a cute kitten, didn't win Kain's favor. He complains about the white fur getting on his clothes, about all the unnecessary expenses you're spending on a stinky kitten, and mainly, how now that this cat has arrived, you only have attention for her. Which is obviously a lie, he just wants something to fight about and blame you for. The kitten is affectionate with you, always being close and purring in your hands, maybe that's why she's a littleโ€ฆ protective of you? Sweet YN, so kind to her. Snowball is at the door now, her tail slowly wagging from side to side in a clear sign of agitation, her meows becoming louder as if she wanted to defend you.
The couple's shouting, with the TV playing loudly in the background, and the incessant meowing of a cat is chaos, an irritation that grows more and more. At some point, Kain gets really angry and approaches YN aggressively, stomping his feet hard and raising his hands. It is exactly at this moment that Snowball uses her incredible feline speed and scratches his feet, the kitten's soft white fur standing up while her pupils turn into two little holes.
There is something under your window, and the thing wipes its bloody mouth and does its best to stay still, observing the situation.
And most importantlyโ€ฆ the thing sees you.
"See? Even a cat understands that you're overstepping your bounds! Enough, Kain, there's no way you're that upset!" You huff loudly as you walk away from the man, you don't know what's worse, the yelling or the teasing of the kitten.
Kain turns around, now focusing his attention on Bola de Neve. He scoffs at the kitten and scowls at you.
"Oh, shut that thing up. If you can't keep it quiet, you shouldn't have gotten it. You know cats annoy the hell outta me."
Oh, this is the final straw for you. Not only did he ruin a perfect date, but now he wants to rule your house as if it were his? Oh no. All the women inside you roar in unison, ordering in your heart that you should not stay silent and lower your head.
"Oh? Excuse me? This is MY HOUSE! If you're bothered, go to YOUR HOUSE! Because in mine, MY kitten can even sing if she wants to," you proclaim louder than him, disgusted with the situation while gesturing to the house.
Kain turns to you, his face red and his expression darkening even more.
"I'm your boyfriend, I have every right to be here!" he snaps back, getting even closer to you. Snowball doesn't like this at all, approaching you and climbing onto the nearest couch, meowing and hissing again louder than before.
You swallow your fear and apprehension and head towards the door, crossing the room while maintaining eye contact with the man. "You have the fucking right to be here, the door is open for you to go vomit and talk your nonsense outside. In my house, I'm the boss, big head."
Kain turns to yell at the cat again, annoyed and frustrated, he imitates the meow more loudly and in a childish way. He's clearly losing his temper.
"Will you shut that thing up! It's making my damn head hurt, I'll throw it outside myself if I have to! What an annoying noise! โ€‹โ€‹I'm leaving if you keep this up!"
Oh, does the asshole want a formal invitation?
"Oh, do you want me to do the honors?" In a sarcastic tone you answered him, taking Snowball in your arms and protecting her as if she were your own kitten, placing her in her cat tower, a safe haven for now. There's a high chance that Kain will get really angry and go after the cat, but even so you hold the cat tighter against your chest and stomp on the floor.
Big man, head of a childish boy.
Enough of bowing my head to him hoping that everything will be better the next day.
Kain glares at you, furious and frustrated. He's not expecting you to actually kick him out, especially considering his current state, the idiot was already drinking before your date, the smell of cheap alcohol on him is unbearable.
"Are you serious right now?! You'd really kick me out over a cat?!" he yells, standing up and walking towards you, getting in your face.
"You're the one who's bothered by the cat, and you know the saying: those who are bothered should leave!" You cross your arms and continue even more determined "Either you leave and save the rest of your dignity or you spend the night here in silence."
Kain looks like a mad man with rage now, are you choosing the cat and not him? Do you dare to turn against him? Your boyfriend?
He approaches you again with strong and threatening steps, crossing the room again until he's close to you, next to a beautiful decorated bookcase. As a reflex of revolt, you tie your hair in a bun and approach him with the same intensity. A sign that the fight is far from over.
โ€œYouโ€™re being too-!โ€
โ€œListen here, you-!โ€ you gesture with your hands as you speak
The creature thinks that you look terribly big now, taking up more and more space as if, like any animal, you were showing your dominance in the territory. With increasingly larger and more offensive gestures, your voice increasingly loud and cold, arguments mixing with emotions, the situation is escalating very quickly. And the most interesting thingโ€ฆ.
There is not a single drop of fear in you.
Creatures of his kind can feed on peopleโ€™s fear and anguish too, but he doesnโ€™t smell that in youโ€ฆ he smells that in your scoundrel boyfriend, who tries to disguise his weak points when he raises a threatening hand at you, shouting in a deep voice that imposes dominance.
โ€œShut your mouth!โ€
You glare at him defiantly and grab the first thing closest to you: a sharp sculpture, a decorative gift from your mother that you've never found useful, well, until now.
"Shut you up!" You hold the sculpture at the same height as his raised hand, raising your voice so it echoes through the house.
He looks at you, his face red with anger and his breathing fast. Kain never thought you'd threaten him back, defend yourself, but knowing you, he knows that the likelihood of you attacking him is as high as him attacking you now. Given this, and his weak state, Kain curses in a low tone and slowly lowers his hands.
You take a deep breath and pray that your own voice doesn't shake and slowly lower the sharp sculpture, but holding it tightly in your hands in case he changes his mind.
"Respect me. And if you really have feelings for me, you'll get out of my house right now and leave me alone!" You growl in an authoritative tone, leaving no room for suggestion as you slowly walk towards him, circling him like a predator while pointing the sculpture directly at him.
Your eyes are like flames of fire, with hatred and anger escaping from them as you focus exclusively on the man in front of you.
Today was perhaps the moment of greatest mental clarity of your life, and Kain hates every minute of his girlfriend's insubordination, as if he had seen the size of the iceberg for the first time, and not the small cubes or ice shavings that subtly melted with the heat of kisses or weak threats.
This little thing thinks she can threaten me? Shout back?
"YN, you're overreacting!! You're going to regret this!" The cornered man slowly makes his way to the door, frustrated and with a bruised ego. Kain keeps his eyes wide as he watches your domineering figure, but out of pride he still wants to have the last word to tell his friends.
"Enough!" You hold up a hand signaling him to shut up, and he does so immediately. "Don't make me repeat myself. Get out. Now!" You open the door abruptly, knocking over a portrait that was behind it as you breathe heavily through your nostrils, like a bull preparing for combat.
Kain glares at you, his anger fading slightly as he realizes he's not gonna win this one. He knows you're being serious, and doesn't have a choice. He sighs loudly and turns around to grab his stuff.
"Fine then! I'm leaving! But don't come begging for me to come back when you decide to ditch the damn catโ€ฆ" He grabs his things and still grumbling curses. He gets to the front door and looks back at you one last time. He's still grumpy and annoyed, but defeated.
"I'll call you when I get home."
โ€œSure.โ€ You say with a forced smile, the words coming out between clenched teeth.
The thing remembers that most species show their teeth as a sign of aggression, and it wonders if one more step in the wrong direction and you would open your jaw and furiously bite your boyfriendโ€™s throat until it bled?
No.
When Kaim approaches, you allow him to kiss you on the mouth, albeit angrily, and say goodbye. He gets on the motorcycle and then exits the house, without looking back while you stand at the door, waiting for him to leave. Acting silently as a sentinel of your own house, your straight posture and raised chin indicate that you remain firm in your position. The sound of a motorcycle starts up and then fades away in the distance. It's finally quiet again.
The creature thinks humans are complicated.
If a miserable dog dared to even attack its owner, the owner would hand it over to a kennel or the streets, returning the hatred a thousand times over.
But if a human attacks anotherโ€ฆ.
A human will be a thousand times more merciful with their own kind, they will apologize and make amends for the aggression, they will blame the drink, the drugs, the stressful day but they will never blame the other, they will never admit their own mistake.
Through a hidden bush the creature sees you enter the house and close the door and before you can walk with strong steps to the other side of the houseโ€ฆ Snowball, the kitten, meows sweetly at you. It is as if the big and strong independent woman melts at the sight of a worried kitten, disarming herself of the armor she used in the argument earlier. You pick her up in your arms and take her to the sofa in the living room, where you put on a romantic movie to watch, something that internally you wished to live, something to distract from this moment.
Snowball purrs against your chest, raising her head subtly to lick the tears that roll down YN's face, staining the makeup she had done so excellently in doing. Stubborn, frustrated, angry, tears roll down her face insistently while YN holds herself back from crying, but poor thing, her lip trembles slightly as the kitten does what she can to bring some comfort to her owner.
*crash*
At that moment a loud noise is heard, the dramatic scene is interrupted by the trash can falling and YN remembers that she had actually heard something. YN quickly gets up and goes to check what it could be. Some raccoons were rummaging through the house's trash can looking for food, accidentally causing the can to fall on the creature's tail, scaring and hurting it, quickly pulling its tail off and attacking its attackers.
What YN sees, however, is a large black dog going after the raccoons that were rummaging through her trash can. Maybe out of hunger, maybe for something else, but before YN can grab a broom and chase the raccoons away, the large dog does so, and then their eyes meet.
YN looks at the dog, he is a great mass of black fur with long legs and sharp teeth. He is bigger than any dog โ€‹โ€‹she has ever seen, his bark is too loud, his fur makes it easy for him to stay in the shadows but his eyesโ€ฆ..two crimson balls reflecting the light from the window in a bright red. The poor thing immediately shut up when he noticed YIN's presence, and sweet YN, thought he was fighting over food with the raccoons.
YN saw him.
Even after such a stormy night, she gently closes the window as if nothing had happened and goes to the kitchen, calling Snowball to come with her.
For a dog that size, he must eat a lotโ€ฆโ€ฆ
YN grabs some leftovers from her lunch, along with some dog food that she had saved for when she would go for a walk in the park and feed some stray dogs, she grabs some eggs, and a few other things that might please the canine palate and puts them in a bowl, filling a small bowl with water to give to the unknown beast as well.
The girl turns on the light in front of the house, and holds her breath in case the dog gets aggressive, keeping the door closed and Snowball inside the house.
โ€œHey, I can see you,โ€ she says in a sweet tone to call the big dog from hiding in the bushes. She wasn't supposed to see him.Why can she see him?
โ€œCome here boy, I have something for you.โ€ She makes a sound to call the canine, placing the portions of food and water near the window and the bush.
โ€œCome here boy,โ€ she calls again.
The dogs she feeds at the park usually wag their tails when they see YN approaching, let her run her hand through their fur and come quickly when they are called.
But not this one.
The creature wasn't expecting this tonight, having quickly put on his dog skin before leaving, but it's undeniable: He's hungry. And you're offering him a feast. It would be stupid to refuse. So, slowly, he starts to emerge from the bush, his head and snout coming out first and his body reluctantly following. He's incredibly suspicious of YN, not taking his eyes off the human for a minute, which makes her back away too, in her head, giving the creature space to feel comfortable.
โ€œVery well, now Iโ€™m going, okay?โ€ Before she can turn around, the dog changes course and begins to walk slowly towards YN, ears and tail pricked, his gaze fixed on the human.
In the blink of an eye he's in front of her, in an alert position. YN has been in this situation before, so like any other dog, she gently extends her hand so he can sniff and get to know her.
"Oh...hello boy."
The skinwalker sniffs YN's hand, her scent enveloping his senses and immediately making him relax, it was a unique scent, he had never felt this sensation before and hesitantly he licks the back of YN's handโ€ฆ
Mmmโ€ฆ delicious.
YN takes it as a sign that he is friendly and runs her hand over his head, petting him and showing him where the food is.
"Very good buddy, there's your food, see. See you later."
The creature's fur is dry and hard, like that of a stuffed animal and YN doesn't look into the animal's eyes, not wanting to cause more problems for the stranger. Oh, if she had looked into its eyes she would know that what she had touched was not just any animal, she should never have fed it, she should never have given it a break.
After all,
If you feed a dog, it will come back.
And it wasn't just any dog.
Tumblr media
The following days are marked by a strange sensation in YN, a feeling of alertness and unease. Every time she leaves the house for work, she feels a strong sense that something is wrong, and there really is something very wrong around her. A shadow. The shadow lingers, faint and cold, a veil across the surface, untold. Whispers soft, a chilling breeze, Upon the wall, an enigma it weaves.
At dawn, the girl finds peace, a calm knowing that the great Sun would bring her a slight feeling of security and warmth and finally, the feeling of seeing things the way they are. The danger is returning alone at night, YN. What lies beneath, concealed by the veil, A wind that blows but will never fail. A heartbeat, a gentle sigh, A secret that will never die.
She quickens her pace, taking longer and faster steps as she looks anxiously around corners, praying hard that the Sun will be merciful enough to allow her to get home in time to lock all the doors and windows and finally relax, ignoring the persistent shadows she sees in the corner of her eye and the sound of howls in the middle of the night. But unfortunately, today is one of the days when the Sun has been generous with the Moon, allowing it to shine earlier than it did for all of humanity, but the poor human is very anxious, hearing things and seeing things that according to her are just products of her imagination. It's well known, the shadow does reside, but only revealed when looking inside. A ghost that hides and persists. A mystery that the soul can't resist.
After days of feeling followed and watched, YN finally accepts the ride her boss offers her, making her arrive home early and and decided to extend a helping hand to the young woman in the city that YN didn't know. The experienced woman had noticed that YN was in a constant state of anxiety to return home and that something was not right.
Home is everyone's safe place, why wouldn't YN want to go back?
โ€œHey Snowball, did you miss me?โ€ YN pets the cat as soon as she arrives home, the kitten purring as she leans in with her affections.
โ€œDid you catch any mice today?โ€ The girl does not expect answers from a cat, and quickly checks the house for any body or evidence.
It can't be just ONE mouse.
A few days ago, YN saw some mice in the house. There had never been any mice there before, but the girl assumes that things like this happen in the new house. The mice are fast, too fast for YN to hit them with the broom and too fast for Snowball to catch them. They are like shadows, being recognized only by the rotten smell and the noise they make when they move from one place to another, a heavy noise for something so small. But strangely, they never go after food. YN checks the food, the bathroom, the fridge, the yard every dayโ€ฆ but there is no proof that they have been there.
But it is better to have rats than Kain, isn't it? It was Kain's habit to disappear for a while and then appear as if nothing had happened, never remorseful, never guilty. He wasn't always this infinite well of idiocy, he was kind and loving in the beginning but as the relationship progressed things went downhill. Like a tick that starts innocently grabbing an animal's fur, and it doesn't hurt at first, but as time goes by the tick digs its claws and teeth into the host's skin, sucking the soul and blood, weakening the host and leaving the host at its mercy.
As much as the tick hurts, it will be even more painful to remove, like a stubborn person who would rather keep the knife embedded in the wound than remove it and risk losing blood. The boy didn't say much these days, just a few lame excuses while YN cut the conversation short and ignored him. It's better this way. She is still writing the script for how she will end the relationship. Even though he is a stupid asshole, what guarantees that he won't come and demand satisfaction later? That he will send one of his idiot friends to take care of you?
Hmmโ€ฆ better memorize the police number hereโ€ฆ get the neighbor's numberโ€ฆ better be prepared in case something happensโ€ฆ
โ€œโ€ฆhey.โ€
A voice calls her from the other side of the house, in the backyard.
But YN is so lost in her thoughts that she doesn't recognize the tone of the voice, lost in the loud music from her headphones. But she still goes to the backyard to open the door, not realizing that Snowball's fur is bristling and scared, but when she opens the door she finds onlyโ€ฆ
โ€œOh, hey boy. Its you!โ€ You find the black dog from a few days ago sitting elegantly on the grass, attentively awaiting your presence.
โ€œYou're early today, huh?โ€ The sun is still setting today, illuminating some children in orange tones while they are still playing outside.
Maybe one of them called out to a friend and you heard, thinking you were being called.
โ€œIโ€™ll get your food and Iโ€™ll be right back, okay?โ€
The big dark ball has been fed every now and then in the last few days, always after the young woman gets home from work. The dog seemed to guess and emerge from the shadows when he noticed YNโ€™s presence in the house. YN and her huge heart already set aside something for him, buying more food and treats for him at the market. She has enough to feed him and bring him water, but not enough to open the door and adopt him. Itโ€™s as if Yn had wisely created a wall between the two of them, establishing a limit that she felt was necessary.
In the kitchen, the music is still playing loudly in her ears, a lively rhythm to chase away bad thoughts while the young woman prepares an old bowl for the dogโ€™s dinner and another for his water. She quickly pauses the wireless headphones, poking her finger a few more times when the sound doesn't pause.
At these times, YN likes to be on alert to attend to the dogs, even when feeding other stray dogs, there's something particular about this one that makes her feelโ€ฆ agitated, as if she were playing with the flames of a candle and seeing how far it really gets burned. Or in this case, bitten.
โ€œHey buddy, here's dinner.โ€ Yn announces the entrance while the dog is sitting exactly in the same place, with a confused look but accustomed to this routine of the last few days the girl puts the bowls under the window in a clean area.
โ€œCome. You can eat now.โ€ and so he does, walking over to the place and eating from the bowl, his big tail wagging slightly as he savors each bite, his tense muscles relaxing as the feast is served.
He must have been domesticated and when he got too big they pushed him out onto the street, because how is he soโ€ฆ obedient?
This is usually where the story ends.
She feeds him and goes back home.
But this time, the creature notices when YN is about to walk away and growls slightly, making her become confused and stop.
What? What did I do?
The black dog approaches and imitates the behavior he has seen other dogs doing, wagging his tail while staring at YN with pleading eyes and lowered ears, relaxing some muscles in his face so that he appears more friendly.
โ€œOh, you want some affection, is that it?โ€ YN hesitantly brings her hand gently to the dogโ€™s head, preparing to immediately pull it away in case the canine decides to bite at the last minute.
But the bite never comes.
He would never in his right mind hurt you.
He closes his eyes as he welcomes the touch, his hand noticing how much softer and longer his black fur is now, his tail wagging much faster now showing how good he is feeling, sweeping some autumn leaves away as YN pets him more willingly and freely, more comfortable with the idea that he won't bite her hand.
"So you're not aggressive, huh? Do you like it?" she continues to caress the creature tenderly, two hands to stroke his fur all over as he lets out small grunts of joy.
He feels more playful now, his tail wagging as he sinks deeper and deeper into the girl's touch, closing his eyes contentedly. But when he opens his eyes to observe her more closely, to delight in her beautiful and majestic face, to take the chance to study a face so beautiful that it would make the most miserable of men a king, and the richest of men a mere pauper in search of attention, imagine his surprise when he sees that the girl was also studying him. YN takes the chance to see the vulnerable canine and looks for wounds and scars, or indicators of what kind of dog it is, some collar or ship that identifies it, but is surprised by what she finds: beautiful blue eyes.
What beautiful blue eyes, did they turn red because of the light at night? This happens with the reflection sometimes, I saw photos about it.
But Yn avoids looking directly into his eyes for too long, she feels something strangeโ€ฆ they look with such precision and intelligence that YN has never seen a dog have, eyes almost human, almost emotional, almostโ€ฆ something. Almost as if she asked him something, he would answer.
But that's not important now, not when he precisely closes his eyes again as he moves closer to her body, wanting more of the warmth and affection that only the girl can give him.
It's a beautiful and tender moment, which makes YN forget the enigmatic problems that are on the other side of the door. But she is remembered when the sun sets completely, leaving her alone in the darkness. Little by little, in affectionate but anxious acts, she moves away from the dog.
"I have to go now, go eat, boy. Good night." In a sweet voice, she reluctantly says goodbye to her canine friend, it was good that he showed this more affectionate side of him.
"Boy" because he is not something dear to her yet.
"Boy" because to YN he was just a street dog.
"Boy" because he is not allowed to enter the house.
Understanding that she wanted to enter the house, he slowly moves away, allowing the girl freedom to walk to the door while he remains standing in the same place. The darkness of the night quickly becomes present and more terrifying because when she left the sun was shining outside, but now in the house and in the yard, there are no lights on. As she is about to reach for the doorknob, she hears something that makes her freeze.
โ€œโ€ฆthank you.โ€
It was a voice so impossibly clear and deep that it could not have been from her headphones, since they were turned off. It was a voice that spoke inside her head, making each letter reverberate with intensity in every nerve and muscle. A spectral and disturbing voice. Her heart immediately froze and a deep fear took hold of her, words of gratitude that were supposed to make her feel good, now it was as if something primordial had awakened. From the corner of her eye, she slowly notices that the dog is in the same place, looking at her with his head tilted, almost cute, if it weren't for his eyes shining with a light that shouldn't be there.
YN comes out of her trance dizzily and quickly and enters the house, closing and locking the door safely while turning on the doors of the house, all of them while recovering the strength in her legs and breathing unevenly.
Perhaps, if she had looked back one more time, she would have seen the creature moving away and merging with the shadows of the yard in a surreal way, like a shadow merging with the darkness of the night.
Oh, what a terrifying soul to have aroundโ€ฆ.
Oh, what a tormented and dangerous creatureโ€ฆ.
No one taught him to be this creature, he has never seen another of his kind either, but perhaps he has not always been this way. He does not remember exactly what he was, what he once was in existence. He does have a conscience, portraits of memories and abstract concepts, but for the most part he is "an almost animal thing".
He was once human, an original form that he has not used for decades and perhaps he has even forgotten what he once was, after so many masks and disguises it is difficult to know what is true, merging with more animalistic perceptions over time.
Repeating a primitive cycle, eating, sleeping and hunting when he is hungry, exchanging the rotting skin for another.
But for the first time, he did not want to be a "thing", he wanted to be "someone".
Because he is "someone" who can be by her side.
He envied humans in a way, for being able to gather around a campfire and have a normal life. Every animal returns to its den at dusk, or leaves it to hunt, but this creature has no place to call a "den" or "home" as humans call it. He hides in caves or any available corner to spend the night, avoiding sunlight so that people do not see the flaws in his disguise.
For the first time in the creature's entire life, he felt that the path from his "den" led to you.
You are his home.
And if he could be a dog at your feet, this would be it. You yourself could choose a collar and chain especially for him.
Chain him up.
Put a collar with his name on it, identify him as something of yours.
Put your name and number on the collar, so that everyone knows he belongs to you.
It's already decided. It's you he wants. No one else.
Now he understands the story of Kain and Abel, he too would kill to receive such a divine blessing.
As he crawls through the darkness he thinks of strategic plans to get into your house. Maybe he has to get rid of that white cat, he wouldn't share your precious attention with him. Maybe he has to create more rats and kill them in front of you, performing a play in which he comes out as the hero and you are so grateful that you let him into the house. Or maybeโ€ฆ
Maybe he has to get rid of your disgusting scoundrel of a boyfriend, steal his skin and throw him into the darkness. Because who else would YN forgive for acting strange? The creature doesn't know how to be a functional humanโ€ฆ he can still make some mistakes while living with you, learn from other humans and from movies, who knows?
A creature of his kind needs to kill to steal a skin, eat to take the place of another. A macabre laugh echoes from the dog's mouth, malicious satisfaction as he makes the plan in his head, steps idealized in his evil mind.
In a single night, he will visit the scoundrel Kain and a powerful shaman, the night is young and his plans are ambitious, a lot to plan and plan. Oh, how good it is to have the malicious mind of humans, capable of planning things as simple as a hunt or something as grand as a coup.
Now tell me, sweet YN, did you lock your bedroom door?
Are you sure?
So what is that behind you?
