#THIS SCENE MENT EVERYTHING TO ME

[i-have-all-these-freakin-uwus]

[demeterdefence]

i have a lot of bones to pick this chapter and i will get to that but i'm still really pressed by how rachel depicts kronos apparently grieving having to kill hera in her vision

rachel does this really gross thing where at some point in the narrative, she'll have the male abuser depict some kind of sadness in regards to his female victim, but it is not remorse. it really reads like whitewashing the abuse itself because "can't you see how upset the abuser is that he has to do this :("

apollo got that really disgusting pov chapter talking about his perspective on persephone after raping her and that was bad enough, but then you also see kronos and his relationship with hera being sanitized or even shipped, when hera said verbatim that he abused her and she did not want to sleep with him, she had hoped she could just charm him. the narrative explicitly points out that kronos is a chronic abuser - he kills or severely injures rhea in a fit of rage after using all her powers, he frequently drives away any nymph or consort who approaches him, and he spends who knows how long mentally torturing hera.

there's another essay tucked into that but i just find it so fucking egregious that rachel wants to portray kronos as being upset he has to kill hera because of his own feelings for her, when the fact of the matter is he is choosing to kill her, just like he chose to kill rhea, and swallow his sons, and tear hera in half. depicting an abuser (a serial abuser, in this case) as being upset over an action he's choosing to do for his own benefit is ... a choice, and a disturbing one. why are we centering the abuser in a sympathetic light when he is still ultimately abusing someone???

Hold on, Buck rolled himself under a firetruck to save Eddie after Eddie got shot; while not that long ago he was trapped under a firetruck with his leg….

You asked for NSFW Astarion headcannons, well ask and you shall receive. Just a warning for those who haven't gotten to Astarion final romance scene, so spoilers ahead.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I can only imagine how much the night at his grave ment to him. It was goofy, silly and not as hot as he was used too. Of course it was still romantic and all that, but he was certainly confused by his own clumsiness.

It starts off slow with the leg hook, still showing desire and neediness, but not rushing into anything. The passionate kiss that feels so much different than any other. The hand on his back pulling him, making him feel like he'll be consumed whole by his love and he wants nothing more.

The undressing is clumsy, considering he allows someone else to do it with his own consent, and also he's so excited to get them naked that his fingers tremble and don't undo their buttons the first time like he's used to. Both of them are chuckling at their foolishness inbetween kisses and praise. He lets out those high pitched little giggles that he does when he's giddy, and if his heart could still beat, he would feel it in his chest.

The actual sex is so much better than he could say. It makes him feel lightheaded, in total bliss. His eyes roll into the back of his head as he languidly thrusts at a pace not only his partner likes. He only bites if his partner allows, and while he'll respect their want to remain unbiten if they do, but he just wants a little bite. He loves it for the fact he feels so much more alive. He can feel everything. Every touch, every kiss, and every little caress. That being said, it makes him a little more sensitive. He's much more vocal than before, little whines and whimpers that leave his lips. Maybe he cums a little faster than usual knowing he can. He feels safe, meaning he can just be himself.

And last but not least, the aftercare. Both of them walking back in dirty clothes, messy hair and dirt covering their bodies. A graveyard wasn't the best option, but it meant something to him. The ends with a warm bath in the Elfsong (and a few weird looks from the party). He takes his time washing their body while they wash his hair, massaging his scalp, making him melt to their touch.

Anyways, I'm ovulating if you can't tell.

Well okay Anon, just kill me I guess 🫠🫠

Soft, tender Astarion is just so *chefs kiss*

Teaching him that sex can be sooo much more than just, well, sex. It can be loving, and carefree, and fun. The thought of him coming quicker because he's able to has me screaming. You're so right.

UGH and the aftercare?? He deserves the best aftercare that anyone could give him.

“It went well?” Chan exclaimed in shock over your speakerphone.

You hum in agreement, confusion in the forefront of your mind, “Surprisingly, it went better than I could have ever imagined,” a sigh escapes you, “I don’t know, it’s weird.”

“Well, the fact he even apologized caught me off guard in the first place.”

You laugh lightly, “Oh, trust me, I still am having a hard time believing it. It’s been so long of him being an asshole to me, so seeing him like this was… very different. A little scary, if I’m being honest.”

“Yet it still went well even though it was kinda weird?”

“I mean, it was really awkward at the start which was annoying, but I can’t blame him. He genuinely did look like he felt bad, so it probably was hard to be in his position,” you think aloud, “But it was getting too much and he was putting a damper on the mood, so I tried to make him more comfortable, which worked. Then we started talking, and I don’t really know how to say it, but it felt… really nice? It made me realize that maybe I did miss our friendship.”

“Well, you guys did get along really well before everything happened. To be honest, I thought there was something more going on before then,” Chan recalls, “Though, his sudden change made me realize I was way off.”

Your eyebrows furrow at Chan’s comment, “Something more? Like romantic?”

He chuckles from the other end of the line, “Yeah, I thought something was going on between you two. You guys just seemed to click really well, better than any other costar you’ve had in the past, even to this day. Lowkey thought it was going to be a Tom Holland and Zendaya moment.”

“Jesus,” you mutter, “Definitely not that, I never thought of him that way.”

“You say that, but I remember the heart eyes you used to look at him with,” he teases.

“Oh, shut up. I did not. Besides, that’s not what’s important in the present time!”

He rolls his eyes, even though you couldn’t see it, you could feel it in his tone, “Yeah, yeah, whatever you say. You’re right though, it is a difficult situation for both of you to be in. Other than it being uncomfortable, how are you feeling about it?”

You let out a heavy sigh, “I mean, part of me is happy to be able to have a normal relationship with him, but… I’m still really mad at him for how he treated me. I don’t think it’s something I can let go of yet.”

“That’s okay. You have time to process all of that, no one is rushing you.”

“I know, but for a moment yesterday, I kinda forgot about all that. I had fun with him, and I want to keep having fun, but then I remember everything and feel so… upset that I am even letting him back into my life, even if it's for a bit.”

“Huh…” Chan muddles over your words for a moment, “That is quite the dilemma. I think you have every right to be upset at him, but I also think it’s okay if you miss your friend. I just think you have to figure out what kind of boundaries you want to set for yourself then. I think you can still have a nice time with him without him earning your forgiveness just yet. He can be a surface level friend or acquaintance until he proves himself trustworthy again.”

“You’re right, but I just didn’t like how easily it slipped my mind. Part of me feels like I should still be more on guard and not as friendly, but he makes that hard too.”

“Y/N, it’ll be okay,” he reassures, “You’ll figure it out, but it’s perfectly fine for you to have fun, while still having boundaries, okay?”

You sigh, still a bit unconvinced by his words, “I guess…”

“I know it’s hard, I can’t imagine what it's like to be in your position, but I promise it will be okay.”

“I’ll believe you just this once!”

“You say that every time, but sure, just this once. Call you tomorrow, alright?”

It was the next evening, and you were anxiously waiting in your apartment for Hyunjin to arrive. You weren’t sure how today was going to go, and the idea Changbin had for you both today made you nervous, as it felt as a far more intimate setting than the previous dates. Although, you couldn’t entirely argue with his logic. Today, he suggested that you both cooked a simple dinner with each other, the idea being that it would help you both learn how to work together towards a common goal, which was dinner in this case.

Despite you being able to understand the logic behind his idea, it was incredibly intimidating to think about having Hyunjin in your own home, especially considering the sudden change in dynamic in your relationship. Even then, you didn’t just let anyone into your home, as you only ever had your closest friends come over for small hang outs, so this was far outside of your comfort zone, but perhaps that was a good thing. Maybe going out of your comfort zone with Hyunjin would only help you both succeed the next time you found yourselves on set, and perhaps something as intimate as cooking together would help you both ease into your roles.

A knock on the door wakes you from your thoughts, prompting you to shuffle hurriedly towards the door to open it for none other than Hyunjin. He greets you with a gentle smile, bowing his head slightly as you let him in wordlessly. There is an awkwardness that hangs in the atmosphere, indicating that you both were uncomfortable with today’s plans and he, too, was likely struggling to find the right words to say.

You take a deep breath in, almost as if you were catching your breath, “Welcome to my place!” You cringe internally at yourself, unable to handle the intensity of the awkwardness between you two and how poor your attempt was to disperse it.

“It’s really nice!” he compliments, standing in place by the entrance after removing his shoes.

“Thank you,” you respond, “Uhm, just follow me, the kitchen is this way. And all the ingredients are ready for us to use, Changbin had them delivered.”

Hyunjin follows you into the kitchen, his eyes taking in every detail around him, filling him with delight to see how characteristic of you the apartment was, it being a perfect representation of your personality. “What are we making again? I don’t think Changbin filled me in.”

“Oh, we’re just making curry udon! It’s something I’ve made before and it’s not too hard. My bad, I didn’t tell Changbin what we were making which is probably why he didn’t tell you. All I did was send him an ingredient list.”

“I forgot you like cooking,” he replies as he stops in your kitchen, quickly turning to the sink to wash his hands.

You hum in response, washing your hands after him, “I think it can be relaxing, but uh, if you want you can start with chopping the carrots and potatoes? I’ll handle the onion and garlic.” Hyunjin nods and follows your orders without much trouble, or so you think, until you turn around and see him holding the knife in a very precarious and questionable manner. Your eyes widen as you rush towards, “Oh my god, that is not how you should be trying to cut a potato. Have you not chopped a veggie in your entire life?”

He smiles sheepishly, shrugging his shoulders, “Listen, I don’t do this cooking thing often,” a gentle chuckle leaving him as he takes amusement in your concern, his heart thumping over the sudden proximity you both now shared.

“I-,” you sigh with a baffled expression, “Okay, let me just show you because I am not having you accidentally bleeding out all over my counter.” 

“You’re more worried about your counters than me?”

“Shut up,” you suppress a laugh before softly whispering, “Here, just do it like this,” you reach over and lay your hands atop of his without second thought, guiding him on how to position his hands without the risk of injury. Once you’ve become aware of how your bodies are pressed up against each other from the side, you jump away in an instant, “That’s it! That’s all you gotta do.” You’re quick to avoid eye contact with him, turning towards your own cutting board as you chastise yourself for being so careless with him at that moment.

Hyunjin’s face and ears were soon dusted with a soft pink, heat rushing across his body over the interaction that seemed so natural, but manages to mutter out a quiet ‘thank you’ before trying his knife skills out once more. Despite your momentary embarrassment, you are sure to take sneaky peaks at Hyunjin to make sure he was handling himself well. You move on from chopping and turn your attention to seasoning the chicken while Hyunjin was still focused on the vegetables, going at a leisurely place which you much preferred in this case. 

The rest of cooking goes on in silence aside from the occasional instruction or question, small witty jokes, and touches that seemed to linger more than necessary, but perhaps that was your imagination. Once everything was done, you both sat across from each other, admiring the fruits of your shared labor that was now plated in front of you both. 

“It looks really good!” Hyunjin comments enthusiastically, a wide, toothy grin spreading across his face. 

“It does, right? Let’s eat!”

Neither you miss a beat, taking a huge bite of the udon noodles, letting out a delighted groan over just how flavorful the food was. “Woah,” Hyunjin groans out, surprise at how well tonight had gone thus far with the added victory of food, “Holy shit, this is so yummy.”

“Mhmm,” you mumble out between slurping noodles, “This is better than when I make it on my own.”

“It’s the Hyunjin special that you’ve been missing this whole time,” he says matter-of-factly with a smug smile.

“You’re being pretty bold for a guy who just learned how to hold a knife today,” you tease, playfully sticking your tongue out. Your eyes catch each other for a moment between your fits of giggles, time stopping for the briefest second possible before you both avert your eyes out of nerves. What was that? You thought frantically to yourself, suddenly hyper aware of the strange warmth in your stomach that was also accompanied with the feeling of your stomach dropping. It was an uncomfortable feeling, one you didn’t know how to explain or ever experienced before, but you did know you didn’t want that combination of symptoms again for whatever emotion this was. You clear your throat, taking a sip of water as if it would wash away the discomfort, “I guess we are pretty good, huh? Maybe our acting project has hope if we are able to work this well together,” you joke, a very poor, if not disastrous, attempt to alleviate the awkwardness that seemed to follow you everywhere these days.

Your words stab Hyunjin in the heart, the guilt he had once forgotten was knocking at the door of his heart, forcing itself in without his permission. His entire demeanor deflated the moment those words left your lips, his heart writhing at the reminder that the only reason this situation existed was because of him and his blinding stupidity. Yet, here you are, warmly inviting into your home and treating him as if he was an old friend of the past, as if he had never wounded you and he couldn’t help but wonder if he was deserving of any of this. He stood still, gulping down his food before faintly whispering a hushed apology.

“I’m sorry.”

Your head snaps back up, your eyebrows furrowing with worry once you sense the sadness lacing his trembling voice, his head now turned downwards as if he was trying to mask his state. Perhaps the joke was a little too soon, you thought, now it being your turn to feel bad. “Ah, Hyunjin, I’m sorry-” you apologize hurriedly, “It was just a joke, please don’t take it too seriously. I’m sorry.”

He forces a smile, waving his hand as if to tell you to not worry about it, the words at the forefront of his tongue, but caught in his throat due to the heaviness sinking in his chest. Once again, shame paralyzed his body, the warm sensation behind his eyes reminding him to blink, reminding him he shouldn’t be so selfish in his pain when he was the cause of so much discomfort. Was any of this okay? Was any of this right? He wonders to himself, still unable to find forgiveness within himself. 

“Hyunjin,” you speak tenderly, your hand reaching across the table to touch his arm, grounding him back in the present, “I promise, it’s okay.” You knew that last bit was a lie, but it was for his own sake and comfort at this point. His treatment, his behavior, his attitude – none of it was ever okay, but you decided to ignore your own feelings and prioritize his. For the first time in two years, you cared about how he felt, you finally cared how your words harmed him, when before all you ever aimed for was a strike to his heart, but today, you chose to comfort his heart that your words unintentionally wounded. Although, your own heart and conscience briefly argued for a moment, one wanting to tend to his hurt, while the other demanded you let him rot in his misery, insisting he deserved it for what he had put you through. It was a tug-of-war you weren’t enjoying, you had almost wished you two remained in your heated hatred for one another and that nothing ever changed. Despite what your mind screamed at you, you chose to listen to your heart, you chose him over yourself.

He takes a deep breath in, trying to collect himself before speaking, “I just–,” a heavy exhale escapes him, “I’m just sorry. I just feel really, really, really bad for everything, but I also feel like I’m not allowed to feel bad when I was the one to hurt you.”

His eyes met yours, the glassiness of his eyes conveying the depth of his guilt, “Oh, Hyunjin,” you whisper apologetically, “Listen, I won’t lie to you, what you did was shitty. You did hurt me, but that is in the past. You feeling bad about it means you’re a good person, right? It means you’re human and that you care, but I don’t want you to let your guilt overwhelm you either.”

It was a genuine response in a moment of sudden vulnerability, your response taking him aback, but the words temporarily placating his never ending thoughts, “I guess, but… I don’t know if I can forgive myself,” he mumbles.

“You don’t have to yet, but you can learn to eventually,” you reply, “I understand it’s hard, and even I still need more time to do that myself, but I do think you deserve to be kind to yourself.” None of that was a lie, you did truly believe he was deserving of his own compassion, but his culpability helped you see the humanity in him. The spitefulness you once knew him for nowhere to be found, but instead there was only a guilt-ridden man who carried a world of humiliation. “I think I can learn to do so soon, too. Spending time with you helps. Besides, I did miss being friends with you if I’m being honest.”

The last sentence causes him to perk up, a small, satisfied smile playing onto your lips, “Really?” he asks, his ears barely believing your words, but his heart was swelling with hope. His eyes search yours, he can’t help but notice how they glimmer under the soft lowlights of your home, and for some reason, he finds warmth and comfort in them. He knows he can trust you, he knows you are being as candor as possible.

“Really, I mean it.”

“I missed it too.”

“Well, I’ll do my best to learn to trust you again. I’ll learn to forgive you eventually, just for now, it still hurts.”

“I’m sorry. I’ll learn too.”

chapter three. it’s party time!

word count. 2244 words warnings. ments of alcohol (later in the chapter), unwanted advances, suggestiveness implied, not proofread penny’s commentary. this was a doozy to write, but we get gentleman riki! :3

─────────────────────────

9:37pm, your phone read. you shoved your phone into your purse, zipping it up before glancing around the house yuna and gaeul drove you to.

music blared throughout it, shadows of purple, blue, green, and whatever other colors flashing against the wall. sweaty bodies pressed against each other, the party goers lazily bumping and grinding to whatever song was playing.

this wasn’t your usual scene — you opted more for smaller house parties or just regular hangouts. maybe a big one from time to time, but this one was just insane. it was crowded, the room feeling small with how many people were packed in it.

gaeul and yuna had split from your group together, talking about visiting their shared friend wonyoung, while sunoo met up with his friends. jaehyun was by your side, along with taehyun, who was seemingly uncomfortable by the setting. you scanned the crowd, no familiar faces sticking out to you. you hoped you’d bump into jake. maybe then the party would be tolerable.

your hand flew to whichever friend was left, gripping onto their wrist in fear of losing them. your other hand clutched the purse that hung from your shoulder, making sure no one had grabbed it. you glanced at your friend, your lips pressed in a pout. when you realized you were clutching onto taehyun, you exhaled a breath you didn’t even know you were holding.

he wasn’t used to the party scene either. sure, he went clubbing with his other friends once in a while, but that was nothing compared to a college party. he offered you a polite smile, his eyes sparkling naturally under the colored lights.

he leaned towards you, his lips just a few inches away from your ear. “you wanna head outside? it’s too loud here.”

even though he was in earshot, it was still hard to make out his words, the only thing that could be picked up was the word “outside”. you didn’t need full context to know he wanted to get out of the crowded house, so you nodded and led him to the back door. jaehyun had went to look for his other friends once he noticed you and taehyun were leaving.

the backyard was littered with people and cans of beer, yet it was not as bad as the inside. the gentle breeze of the outdoors brushed against your skin and brought you back to earth, the overstimulation that was growing while inside seemingly dying away.

you led taehyun to a couple of plastic chairs, letting go of him while you both sat down. taehyun sunk into the chair, his legs spread and his hands between them. you sat with your legs crossed, your hand resting under them.

“you’d think we’d be the first to arrive with how sunoo and yuna were rushing us.” taehyun chuckled and shook his head, his eyes scanning the people outside.

you shrugged your shoulders in agreement, a small smile on your lips. “yeah.. how’d they even know about this party?”

“i have no clue, but i’m not shocked. they know everything.” taehyun then looked at you, his sparkling round eyes studying your demeanor.

you furrowed your brows, a puzzled expression on your face as you looked at him. “what? don’t tell me you’re gonna psychoanalyze me right now.”

a small laugh slipped past his lips, taehyun shaking his head again. “nah.. but by the looks of it-“

“okay, that’s enough!” you laughed, cutting him off.

the two of you engaged in small talk, discussing your classes, new restaurants that opened around campus, etc etc. it had felt like an hour had blown by before jaehyun came running out to the backyard.

“YNNIE, YNNIE!! COME INSIDE!!” his voice boomed, surprisingly louder than the muffled music. he waved his arm frantically, ushering you to get up.

with a heavy sigh, you get up, your purse hitting the chair as you grabbed it and slung it on your shoulder. “i’ll be back,” you told taehyun, patting his head before scurrying to jaehyun.

he didn’t give you time to speak, grabbing you by the hand and dragging you inside. the music, once again, blared and you try to cover your ears with your free hand but it was futile, no space to even raise your hand.

what felt like endless dragging by jaehyun had come to a stop when you realized you were in a garage, a ping pong table decorated with red solo cups in the middle, surrounded by a group of familiar boys. four were playing cup pong, while two other boys were sitting on a ripped leather couch. you turned back to talk to jaehyun, but he was already gone.

“yn noona!” one called, making you turn your head back to the group of boys. he got up from the couch and practically threw himself on you, causing you to stumble back. you barely caught yourself, your ankles nearly twisting because of your heels.

“riki, be careful with her!”

oh! it was jake’s friends!

with a nervous laugh, you patted the younger boy’s back that was adorned with leather, returning the attack bear hug. “hi, riki!”

he pulled away with the brightest smile, which made you break out into a smile too. you were his favorite friend of jake’s, but he would never admit to it if he was asked.

“take a seat!” riki gently took your hand and led you to the couch, seating you down besides sunghoon. he glanced over at you and said hi, before watching the other four continue their cup pong match.

you looked around, your hands and purse in your lap. sunoo was there playing, teamed up with heeseung. it seemed like the two were doing well, half of jungwon and jay’s cups gone.

“noona, you must be cold. here, take my jacket.” riki took off his leather jacket, draping it over your legs.

he was such a sweet boy, a contrast to all the stories jake shared with you about him.

you bowed lightly as a thank you, watching the boys play cup pong.

it was a bit awkward, the boys all immersed in conversation while playing. it felt like you were there just to look pretty.

your eyes couldn’t focus on one person, constantly flickering from the boys, to the cups, to sunghoon and riki, then to the door. your tapped your heels in expectance, but you brushed it off as your anxiety, waiting for the one guy you got along with better than the others.

sunghoon noticed, a bit irritated with how your heels rapidly clicked against the cement floor of the garage.

“waiting for someone?” he leaned over to talk to you better, the music bleeding slightly through the walls.

his words caused you to blink rapidly, snapping you out of whatever dazed you were in. your heels stopped tapping the floor and your eyes focused on him.

“hm?” you hummed.

he smiled faintly, chuckling lightly as his fangs slightly bared as he did. “are you waiting for someone?”

a sheepish smile formed on your lips, nodding softly. “yeah.. is jake coming?”

riki takes this as an opportunity to butt into your conversation. “oh, he didn’t tell you? hyung has some essay, so he stayed at the dorms.”

your lips form an “o” shape, nodding slowly at riki’s head before shaking your head. “he did not tell me..”

you recount your messages; he told you to have fun and to tell him about the guys there.. that should have been a clear sign that he was not going. it made sense now.

getting up from the couch, you grab your purse and lie riki’s jacket down. if you were going to spend a party without jake, you needed at least one drink.

you excused yourself quickly, telling the boys you would be back with a drink, leaving the garage and traveling to the kitchen. all different kinds of bottles lines the kitchen’s island, red cups littered everywhere.

you weren’t looking for anything too strong, but the lineup was of liquors that didn’t suit your liking. luckily, on top of one of the other counters was a makeshift shirley temple bar, and you couldn’t go wrong with a shirley temple. especially one with a twist!

you grabbed the bottle of tequila and vodka and a plastic cup. you assembled your “surprise” shirley temple, adding a shot of both vodka and tequila to it. you thanked god for being a heavyweight or else you were done for.

slinging your purse over your shoulder again, you walked out to the dance floor, cup in hand. the crowding had gone down, people moving outdoors. it was quite hot in the living room / dance area, which makes it understandable seeing people leave.

you were looking for gaeul and yuna — maybe even jaehyun! — to let them know you were going to be in the garage with jake’s friends. but your search was cut short when a gently tap is felt against your exposed shoulders. you turned, an unfamiliar face landing in your sights. the stranger smiled, the energy radiating off of him uninviting.

“oh, hi! do i know you?” you shouted over the music, your head tilted in genuineness.

the stranger shook his head, his hand coming up and grazing over the held which held your cup. you immediately pulled it back, switching your grip on the cup.

he was clearly not amused by what you did, stepping closer to you. uncomfortable with his advances, you backed away, which only made him aggravated.

you could sense the music dying down a bit, a bit too late for this sort of occasion.

“don’t you wanna get to know each other?” his face turned into a scowl. who were you to not accept his moves?

your head waved side to side, refusing his request. “i’m good.”

about to walk in the direction of the garage, the stranger grabbed your arm before you could leave, the force behind it causing some of your shirley temple to spill out of your plastic cup.

“c’mon, just one chance. a pretty girl like you deserves to be done right.” the stranger’s eyes appeared dark, a smirk on his face.

your face contorted into one of disgust. the utter gall of this guy. you switched the grip on your cup again, trying to shake free from this.. whoever this guy was, but he wouldn’t let go. his grip only grew tighter.

“can you please let go? i’m not interested.” you said, frustration in your tone of voice.

he still wouldn’t let up. “i’m not letting go until i get what i want.”

your eyes grew in both shock and horror at his words, still struggling to free yourself from this guy. it was no use, him yanking you forward and pressing you to his chest.

“it’s not like you have a guy waiting for you, right?” he sounded condescending, and it made your blood boil. he was the worst kind of guy ever. “anyone would be ridiculous to not have a girl like you on his arm.”

“let. me. go.” you spat, your brows knotted in anger. your face read a different expression, one of pure fear.

it was an ongoing battle between you and him, trying to free yourself while his grip only grew tighter and tighter. you swore it would bruise but for now, that was the least of the worries. all you wanted was to be in the safety of the boys, or taehyun. hell, you’d feel safe with jaehyun, knowing you’d chase him around the house!

“please, god, just let go!” you cried for one last time before a loud shout was heard. at this point, all eyes were on you.

your head whipped to the direction of the shout, seeing jay and heeseung making their way towards you and the stranger. a sigh of relief flew past your lips as they surrounded the two of you, the stranger’s grip loosening on your wrist. it gave you a chance to free yourself, so you pulled your arm back, stumbling into heeseung. your drink spilled again, some landing on heeseung’s shoes. he didn’t care, a light hand on your waist, the ghost of his touch bringing a nice warmth to you after that. jay and the stranger were at each other’s throats, jay yelling at him. their shared words and profanities only buzzed through your ear, barely being able to make out the way jay called him a disgrace.

their verbal disagreement was about to turn physical before a booming crack landed on the stranger’s cheek. you and heeseung watched with agape mouths and wide eyes as he fell to the ground, landing at jay’s feet. your eyes darted to see who punched the guy, meeting taehyun’s boba eyes. it was wonder how his eyes still shined even after punching a man.

sirens began to ring, and they rang loudly, an incoming flash of red and blue shining through the windows of the house.

“shit, ynnie, let’s go!” taehyun grabbed your hand, causing you to drop your cup. he started running, pulling you along to the outside. jay and heeseung followed beside the two of you, zooming past the crowd of scampering people and out the back doors.

the moments after that were a blur, the last thing you recall is taehyun driving you home and telling you to text him if you needed anything.

all you really needed was jake though.

Crazy 6 In The Morning Theory!

I have a theory on why the key in rottmnt is indestructible. The prison demention IS the key or rather the prison demtion is located inside the key.

I have some evidence to back my claim.

Evidence A: The flash back scene.

I can’t find the photo to show what I’m talking about but if you go back in the movie you’ll see what Im about to talk about. In the flash back scene went the great warriors were using the key, instead of showing a visual of a portal sucking up the aliens or the warriors forcing the Krang into a portal or just showing them disappear what do they show us. The Krang all being sucked INTO the key. Now this very well could have just been a stylistic choice but at the same time it could have been intentional.

Evidence B: the whiteboard scene

Again I could not find the image of April and Splinter in front of a white board but luckily for this one I don’t think I need a image to describe what I’m about to talk about. During the movie, the movie tried to make it clear to us the veiwer that the key is indestructible meaning no matter how many lasers you chuck at it the thing will stay right there solid bo scratches no nothing. Now why is that?

In some ways it feels like a design flaw if you were to put a animal in the cage one would think the first thing anyone would do was to get rid of the key to make sure said thing has no means of obtaining it or getting out. The first warriors were the ones to make the key so they probably would have had some means of destroying it or they at least would have thought to hide it in a place no one can obtain it or even better lock it in a different demention like they did with the shredder.

But maybe If the key was litterly the prison demention it would make a lot more since why it would be indestructible. You dont want to destroy the means of where your keeping your prisoners it defeats the purpose. I can also see them wanting to keep a close eye on the key to make sure nothing tried to escape it or break out. Suddenly everything makes a little bit more sense. Also if you were creating a demention out of no where you would need a place to put it. You would want it to be a place thats easy to find and get to at any time and be easy to watch. If you were hiding it you would want the place to seem inconspicuous, somewhere that could be in plain sight, somewhere that no one would think it would be, maybe in a place where it can easily be moved or hidden. So why not put it in something rather then put it somewhere. This way you can always have it be watch 24-7 you can move and hide it easily and no one would think that a whole pocket demention would be in your pocket. For all we know they could have been treating this item like the shredder tea kettle till they died and lost it along the way.

Evidence C: Style

The key has a lot of intrusting design choices litteraly and in a sort of metaphorical figurative sense. The movie makes the key seem very similar to pandora’s box. Once you open it its almost impossible to put all the evils back in that box and you have to live with the consequences.

Also went you first think of a key the first thing that comes to mind is probably your standard house key 🔑 for a lot of people myself included. The designers however decided to make it a clinder like container. Almost like it wasn’t really ment to be a key in the since that you would use it to open a door. It was more of a key in the since that it was the key to solving their alien problems. The key shape kinda reminds me more of one of those time capsules that you would find underground. It looks more like something thats ment to BE opened rather then OPEN something. Like the key wasn’t a key at all instead it was a doorway or a lock. Like a chest or a pringels can.

People also always like to point out that the key looks like a Hawaii teekie item which going back to the last evidence could have been intentional for having it be hidden in plain sight. Sure it looks unusual but I can also see it very much being a decoration piece in someones home or someone using it as some sort of paper weight. I could also see it being passed of as a artifact some one would dig up and put in a museum…wait.

Hope you liked my theory and I rest my case. Feel free to give your own evidence or thoughts I would love to read them.❤️

ES Starscream: What they took from him (last minute!)

I can't stop thinking about season 2 of Earthspark so I'm at it again. Overall I was mostly unbothered to the very last 10 minutes of the last episode, this last minutes made me so mad it's unbelievable. So what I'm gonna do now is list all the things that got screwed up in this short time, particulary how Starscream character got absolutely butchered.

Without further ado, that's the list: > Starscream lost any agenda. His agenda in this season wasn't good anyway ofc, but it was ANYTHING at the end of final episode he's just. gone. and that's it woohoo. > Starscream lost his respect among the Decepticons. It was interesting for me how we could see how obedient towards him they were, a bit in season 1 but mostly in season 2. Even Shockwave didn't dare to question him most of the time. I was waiting to discover why is that so. Maybe they knew he was capable of pulling a stunt like the one he did at the end of season 2 so far? But yea we will never know bc noone from Decepticons is going to stick around him now, and now Shockwave is the leader so gap has been filled. so fun. > He also lost his mission, his care for anything! cyberforming Earth was ment to serve the Decepticons, his fellow cybertronians. But first in the dialogue with Hashtag Starscream says he's doing it just for himself and then he just. Lost his mind i guess. > Speaking of Hashtag. Starscream in this dialogue with her twists his own words from "What Dwells Within" from season one. His words coming from genuine care we saw developing in that episode here are shown as somehow mischievious, as some stupid foreshadowing. Its completely insane how the show retrospectively is erasing everything that could make Starscream redeemable later on. Awful, absolutely awful. > Hashtag also says that his actions will make him worse than Megatron, and he accepts that. The intention of this specific line is super clear. It makes his relationship in simplistic reality of the cartoon somewhat less of a problem. Starscream is bad right, even worse than Megatron, so why bother. I fear that's the way this series closes the problem of Megatron's and Starscream's relationship, expecially with how earlier on in season 2 Megatron is framed as reasonable and the one trying to speak to him before the fight. I'm afraid we will never hear anything about them that makes sense in this show. And it's just so disappointing. > Starscream murdering two children (that's what Chaos Terrans are ok) which is. Oh my god. It's such a cheap move to make the character unredeemable. Not to mention how deaths of Aftermath and Spitfire were kiiiiiinda convenient for our protagonists. "uh oh how sad they are dead how could you Starscream :(((((( ok now lets get the Emberstone that is now complete thanks to them being dead :))))))" > About that scene. I hate it from different reason, too. Because the way Starscream treated Chaos Terrans, expecially Spitfire was a beacon of hope for me in this season. The way he was never violent towards them (even Breakdown kicked Aftermath! And Starscream never did anything like that, even when Twitch in Spitfire's body made a mess and ruined the equipment!). The way we could kinda see him getting closer with Spitfire, in the way that reminded me how kind he could be for Hashtag in season 1. And all of this absolutely ruined, none of this was relevant.

So that's all I've gathered, if you have something more feel free to add your observations! Starscream's character in season 1 is very dear to me, even if "What Dwells Within" isn't perfect I still loved it so I feel personally robbed by season 2.

AEW Wrestlers Pregnancy Headcannons

Requested by @moondust-imagines

Summary: AEW Wrestlers reactions to finding out you are pregnant

Main Masterlist Part 1 Part 3 Part 4

Wrestlers mentioned: 'Hangman' Adam Page, Christian Cage, Chuck Taylor and Swerve Strickland

"Hangman" Adam Page

Adam cried when you told him you were pregnant.

You were scared by his reaction, the only time you saw him cry was after the whole brawl out

The diffrance was this time they were happy tears

He coudn't wait to be a father, he promised he would do everything he could to protect you and your baby

Adam did EVERYTHING for you, he wound't let you lift a finger during your pregnancy

It was adorable but also anoying at times, you were capable of walking 10 feet to grab a glass of water

Adam would run to the store in the middle of the night without a second thought for whatever you were craving

He was ment to be a father, he was everything you ever wanted in a partner

Christian Cage

I wrote a four part fic about Christian Cage that you can find HERE, in the second part the reader finds out she is pregnant. I decided to include the scene instead of making headcanons

I went out to pick up a few groceries and once I returned I found Y/n sitting on the floor of the master bathroom with tear-stained cheeks. I sat next to her and asked “What’s wrong?” nothing “If something happened the other day at work you can tell me you know” I waited, I knew she wanted to say something but was having trouble getting the words out. “You’re going to be mad at me” Her words were so quiet it was barely a whisper. “Why would I be mad at you honey?” What would I be mad at? “Don’t yell, I’m sorry. I don’t know how this happened” Y/n had tears in her eyes as she spoke. “I won’t yell, I promise but I need to know what happened so I can help you,” I told her carefully Just then she got up and handed me four items from the sink before returning to her spot on the floor. She was now fully crying and turned her back to me. It took me a minute to realize what I was holding in my hands. Four pregnancy tests, all different kinds but all were positive. “Are these real?” She turned to face me, mascara now ruined. “Are you mad at me?” I wasn’t mad but I was shocked, but I was also happy. “No sweetheart, I would never be mad at you. Especially over something like this” I gave her a hug to which she returned, burying her head in my chest as she continued to cry. I knew what this would mean, Y/n being pregnant would change everything. Although this was a shock I was so happy. We had never talked about having kids, Y/n was still in her prime and I was nearly 50. “What are we going to do?” I wanted Y/n to know that I would support her for whatever she decided. I mean she is making history with her current title reign and at the end of the day this is her body we are talking about. “This is your decision Y/n. I want you to know that I am happy about this but I understand if you don’t want to go through with this.” She looked at me with a sad smile. “Would I be crazy if I said I want to keep it? I still don’t understand how it happened in the first place but the more I think about it, I want to go on this journey with you Christian” I placed a kiss on her temple before saying “Don’t worry, I am going to be here with you for every second of it. We will do this together” 

Chuck Taylor

Looking down at the positive test in your hands you coudn't stop the happy tears that fell from your face

You coudn't wait to tell Chucky the news

When you told him you were pregant he was so happy

During your pregnancy he would constanly kiss your stomach and talk to your unborn child

Chuck Taylor is such a teddy bear, he would be the best dad

Once your baby was born the two of them instanly had a special bond, you swear your baby liked Chuck more than you

Chuck would build you the most perfect nussery and have the best friends come over to help baby proof the house

As much as he loved his friends he woudn't trust them alone with your baby

Swerve Strickland

When you told Swerve you were pregnant he was secretly terrfied

Not just because he would become a father but because of what he did to hangman

He would get nightmares of the cowboy breaking in and taking your baby, simiular to what he did to hangmans son

He was exited to be a dad but was scared of the responsibilities that came with being a father

He was scared that he would mess everything up, scared he would disipoint you

His thoughts kept him up at night and you assured him he would be a great dad

just like you predicted once your baby was born he was a great dad

Swerve promiced he would do anything and everything to keep the two of you safe

He would kill for you

The Hands of Time, Morro the Elemental of Wind, The Cursed Realm, Who Sent Him There and how Chen is at the center of everything | Ninjago

So first off, I've had this theory for the longest time that Morro wasn't supposed to be in the Cursed Realm and besides that, that he was being taken advantage of by the Preeminent.

When Morro first appears at the very end of Season 4, we hear a voice say Morro's name in a whispered raspy voice.

Now, I've heard many people say that, that is literally just Morro announcing his own name but personally I always thought that the voice sounded similar to a different ghost, i.e. Bansha.

Bansha is a ghost who has the ability to control others from a distance and even communicate between Realms, as seen when she forced Misako to fight Wu and when she communicated with Fenwick, the Master Writer, to allow her, Morro and his ghostly entourage into the Cloud Kingdom. As well as, later when Wu and Misako are acting as distractions so the Ninja can sneak into Stix. Bansha is able to use herself to allow Morro to communicate through her to his old teacher.

This, along with Morro's change of heart at the end of Season 5 (even though ghosts aren't supposed to be able to change) is what initially made me suspicious; then something else came up.

Manipula-Chen (Chen Starts a Time War) by rinkunokoisuru on Ao3 brought up something that I knew in the back of my head but never really thought about.

rinkunokoisuru brings up that one little fact that Season 4 repeated so often that I'm surprised I forgot. Chen's manipulation of the Elemental Masters during the Serpentine War.

Now you might be asking - why is that important, what does that have to do with Morro? Well think about it, who else did Chen manipulate other than a young Garmadon.

Garmadon went to train with Chen and sometime after, Wu takes in Morro, eventually training him to become the Green Ninja.

We already know that Chen was intercepting Wu's mail, considering he was able to steal his love letter to Misako, so whose to say that he also wasn't spying on Wu and Morro's training sessions.

This brings me to another piece of information that was brought up recently by @ataraxixx - that information being that on Morro's back is the Japanese kanji for 'evil'.

Now I know that everyone has made their jokes about Morro being an edgy emo Hot Topic kid for wearing the kanji for 'evil' - but as I thought about it, I began to wonder, "why would a kid who wants to be the hero, die with the kanji for 'evil?"

(And incase your wondering, Morro originally had a dragon on his back just like Wu, when he was younger.)

Going back to rinkunokoisuru's story - in the story, it's suggested that Clouse's dark magic might have played a part in Krux and Acronix's betrayal and possibly play a part in the betrayal of the other Elementals.

With Morro I could believe that and I'll explain why in just a moment but with Krux and Acronix, something just wasn't clicking fully even though I liked the theory. Until I was rewatching episode 3 of Season 7 (A Time of Traitors) for my, 'Morro comes back to life' rewrite.

As I was watching the scene where Kai is discussing the Vermillion war helmet with Dr. Saunders, something came to mind. The helmet is definitely a Vermillion helmet but when Kai said it looked familiar he realized that Krux and Acronix were wearing the exact same helmet in the painting of their fight with Garmadon and Wu. At that moment I realized that they were also wear those same helmets when Wu is congratulating the remaining loyal Elementals on their victory during the Serpentine War.

Why would they be wearing Vermillion helmets?

Thinking back on Season 7.

When Kai first shows Wu the helmet in episode 3, Wu tries to say the line, 'time waits for no one' the same line is said completely by Krux during his fight with Kai at the Museum in the very same episode.

To be fair, it's a pretty common line but I think it was ment to indicate that Wu recognized the helmet as one that the Time Twins wore.

Now you might be asking, why wouldn't he recognize it as a Vermillion helmet?

To that I say, one of the best ways for something to be forgotten is for it never to be spoken of. Which is exactly what we find out in episode 7 (Secrets Discovered) when the Ninja - minus Kai and Nya - speak with King Scales in the sewers.

The Vermillion Warriors were the first generation progeny of the Great Devourer with the same instincts to consume everything, they were something that was so feared by the Serpentine that they were not spoken of, with Scale even going out of his way to find out where they are so his people could avoid them.

Now this is pure speculation, but I wonder, what if a non Serpentine/Vermillion wearing a Vermillion helmet could have an adverse or even corruptive effect on someone, considering Vermillion armor is ment for a nest of Vermillion snakes to nest inside of to form a single Warrior.

(Side Note: this is where all you Snake!Jay fans can come in as to why your boy wasn't affected when he put on the helmet in episode 3. And on that note, shameless plug for my theory post as to there being a Serpentine curse on the Jiang/Smith family - on Ray or Maya's side - as the reason why Jay and Skylor both were turned into snakes thus implying that the same thing has happened to Maya or Ray and as such using this convoluted theory as to why Kai wasn't affected when he wore the Vermillion helmet, implying that like the Snake!Jay theory, that Kai and Nya might have some Serpentine passed down to them from one of their parents' own transformation.)

Getting back to the matter.

Where would Krux and Acronix get a Vermillion helmet in the first place - the answer, from a man who find war entertaining and has a vast collection of hard to find/hard to get artifacts with a particular fascination with Serpentine warriors.

A.k.a. Master Chen.

Even if you go with the theory that the Vermillion helmets are not corruptive, there is still the matter of Clouse's dark magic.

On that note, let's get back to Morro and his connection to Chen and Clouse.

Imagine if you will.

You are mad Cult Leader, anticipating the eve of war between the Serpentine and all of Ninjago. While your pupil, the Elder son of the FSM, may or may not stay on the side of evil, you have been watching his younger brother train his first student to become the Green Ninja, something, which if he is successful, could be a possible problem.

Now again, speculation.

Wu was able to gather every Elemental to fight in the Serpentine War, even if some of them eventually turned traitor. I wonder if during Morro's training, if as part of Morro's training, if he was introduced to the Elementals as a sort of know your allies interaction. Basically, baby Ninja Morro getting to meet the Elementals who were all probably older then him (teen to elder) considering how old Morro looked when he ran away.

Continuing the speculation.

Let's say that Chen's spies told him that Morro was outside of Wu's protection. Let's say that Chen had already begun seducing a certain Elemental to his side (traditional methods or magical methods, you decide). Now let's say Chen had this Elemental go to Morro with a present - a medallion of protection. Let's say that Morro accepts this medallion because it's from his allie and let's say that the medallion has two images - one on top that would soon crumble away and one beneath (the kanji for evil) that actually held a curse that would send the wearer to the Cursed Realm.

And who do we know that can send people to the Cursed Realm - the answer, Clouse.

In Season 4 episode 8 - Clouse attempts to send Garmadon to the Cursed Realm, only for said Sensei to kick the sorcerer into the Cursed Realm, the portal closing behind him.

Later, to defeat Chen's Anacondri Army, Lloyd uses a spell from Clouse's magic books to open a portal to the Cursed Realm, thus allowing the Anacondri Generals to curse Chen and his army, sending them all to the Cursed Realm.

Considering all this, what if Chen had already been luring Skylor's mother to his side and convinced her to give a young wandering Morro a false seal of protection that would send him to the Cursed Realm upon his death (what if Chen had laid hints to lead Morro to a swift death in the Caves of Despair, not long after or even had Skylor's mother unknowingly give those hints when she gave him the medallion)

(Two Side Notes:

First: I personally I think Skylor's mother would have been tricked by Chen into giving Morro the medallion but if you want her to have been evil and do it willingly then that's your call.

Second: I don't think it's too farfetched an idea that the symbol transformed into a large medallion that was tied around Morro when he became a ghost. Almost like it shifted to chain itself to him.)

Now consider, the speculative Green Ninja is dead and the Serpentine War begins. The Elemental Alliance has gathered and some question are asked of Wu.

Where is Morro?

How long has he been gone?

Why didn't you go after him?

War continues, Garmadon goes to help his brother and after some time Chen see the war begin to wane so he sows discord among the Elementals and soon the alliance has fallen apart with only a few Elementals remaining loyal.

Gravity survived an attack by Clouse's pet Serpent and Earth while having briefly turned traitor has returned to the Elemental Alliance - but that's fine because the Time Twins are still wearing the Vermillion helmets.

The five tribes are being locked away (the Venomari by Water/Maya and the Anacondri by Fire/Ray) and the Serpentine War has ended. The Anacondri Generals have been sent to the Cursed Realm, Chen and Clouse are now confined to Chen's island (possibly having already hidden Skylor's mother there). But all that is still just fine. For someone so incredibly fascinated by the Serpentine, one has to wonder how much he knows.

Chen has spies and willing pawns everywhere, how else could he open a successful restaurant chain on the mainland.

Did he know about the prophecy of the Golden Master. Did he know that when the Serpentine are released from their tombs, that they would unleash the Great Devourer. Did he know that the Devourer would head straight to the stone army where her Venom would bring the warriors to life.

Or possibly, I wonder.

If when Krux came out of the Time portal not long after entering it - his younger twin brother, nowhere in sight and personally desiring revenge - did he go searching for a way to get vengeance, possibly from the one who first gave him and his brother the helmets.

Was Chen the one to set Krux on the path towards using the Vermillion Warriors.

In Season 7 episode 3, Krux tells Kai that his parents were traitors who worked for the Hands of Time, however, in Season 4 episode 7 Chen tells Kai that there are dark secrets about his parents.

Of course, Chen could have been lying, however ...

Did Chen know that Krux had kidnapped Ray and Maya?

Did Krux ever have the Jiang/Smith parents do work for Chen in payment for the Vermillion Warrior eggs?

~~~~~

Like many of my post ideas, this one got kinda long and rambling.

Something else I wanted to include was that I recall that someone was lamenting that Morro didn't have fangs like the other ghosts and I wondered why, but then I thought of this.

Cole, Garmadon, Chen and Clouse - four people who were cursed/sent to the Cursed Realm (only two of which were evil) and all four of them, in ghost form, are lacking fangs; just like Morro.

(Side Note: Admitably, Garmadon might just be a special case of - Son of the FSM. Personally, I'm in the boat of, give the Dragoni fangs but that's neither here nor there at the moment)

One more thing before you ask if the other ghost have a kanji for evil on them, I checked. Most ghost with a visible (or partially visible) symbol on their back all have the same Cursed Realm emblem - Morro is the only one with kanji.

Humans drink poison?

(here is part 3. I hope you will enjoy it.)

Helle laughed out loud watching the scene. Which reminded Ga'al that he's not alone with Fe'ek, so he let his friend live another day.

She was curious as to what does Ga'al still do to make him fall asleep but it seemed she'll have to wait to learn that.

"So yes... We all had our ways to stay calm... You'll be fine." Ga'al tried to save whatever left of his dignity after the previous scene.

"Sweet!" she smiled than she heard the metallic noice that ment it is soon time to sleep on this side of the ship. "Oh, that's the first nightcall, think we should eat dinner, right?"

"Oh, you are so right... Humans are not exclusively herbivorus, right?" Fe'ek asked. When Helle shook her head he nodded. "Perfect. That means I don't have to cook separatly!"

He started to pack out his cooking tools. He knew he could just use one of the fast food packages but no matter how long he stayed on the ship he couldn't get used to them. They tased like plastic to him. Ga'al was perfectly fine with them, but still preferred "real" food so he also agreed to get a few cooking tools and make a kitchen in their quarters. It took months till they got the green light to build it, but they both agreed, it worth the effort.

While Fe'ek made dinner, Ga'al and Helle started to have a conversation. They talked about their homes. Helle was amazed that on Ga'al home world, the cities were builed on trees. He talked about how Felleg, the biggest city there was taking up half of the planted and still it could not be seen from above.

And Helle told stories about Gaia's culture and how it is still devided into small local regions and all of them have different laws and a lot of the time, even different languages. Fe'ek was listening to them from the kitchen.

"So what do your species eat? Do you also like fish?"

"Yes I personally like it, but some of us hates the taste or the texture. Humans can eat almost everything. I even like coffee in the morning."

Ga'al stopped mid movement. "What?"

"Coffee!" Helle repeated.

"Oh I thought you said coffein... The poison."

"Coffee has coffein in it." Fe'ek peeked out from the kitchen. "I've been working with poisons before and learned that humans are somewhat immune to them. 400 milligrams of coffein daily is completly manageable for them."

"And we can drink more from time to time, but if we go above that every day it can cause some heart problems." Helle added.

"You mean to tell me, that the worst poison that is still legal is barely causing an inconvenience to you?" Ga'al was buffeled.

"That's the main reason it's still legal. Some scientists even suggest that it is beneficial to drink it every day, though it's still debated." Helle shrugged.

"And wait, I know something even better!" said Fe'ek as he came out from the kitchen. "Humans can digest alcohol."

Ga'al stared at Helle. "Is that true?"

The girl just nodded. "Though I hate the taste of it."

Up untill this point Ga'al has looked at Helle as someone who has a very similar physiology to him and is otherwise harmless. Now he was was looking at her with a bit more respect. Helle tilted her head to the side.

"Are you okay?" she asked.

He nodded.

"Dinner is ready by the way!" Fe'ek's hand landed on Ga'al's shoulder. "Could you two set the table, please?"

Ga'al nodded again.

He was silent troughout the dinner while Helle and Fe'ek exchanges a few gossips from the ship. Helle seemed to know a lot about what happened lately in sector no. 12 and 13 and Fe'ek knew all the local gossips in 25 and 26 where they worked.

After eating they cleaned up the table and the kitchen. Everything was done when they heard the nightcall again. It was time to sleep. The lights of sector no. 24 went out with the lights in theor room.

"Oh well... I think we should sleep..." Fe'ek yawned.

Helle started looking for her nightlight. She turned it up as soon as she found it.

Ga'al offered his bed to her, but she declined the offer, saying she's fine with sleeping on the couch and she doesn't want to be any more of an inconvenience.

After that everyone went to sleep. Helle fell asleep almost immidietly. Fe'ek noted that she probably had a long day. Ga'al agreed.

Before falling asleep Fe'ek taught Ga'al some things about humans he knew. He reassured him that even though humans are fine with alcohol and coffein they are not immune to botulinum for example. Ga'al fell asleep after a while so he could go to sleep too finally.

Lady Tilley Arnold theory

spoilers alert I guess

The main point of my theory is: Lady Tilley Arnold was her own "deceased" husband.

I know I know, but listen to me, the Bridgerton's makers do everything on purpose, every little detail of the clothes, environment, decor etc. And I have a bunch of prooves for my theory.

I don't know if that's a trans situation or just her wanting to be in that particular social role, but let's go.

1. Ok, the thing I noticed the first. Her cleavage zone looks unsual for the show. Her dresses look a little bit different than everyone's else. Less showing. And even when the cleavage aloows to show some boobs, that part of the dress often seems to be a little bit empty (which contrasts with the usual Bridgerton "push-up the boobies as much as possible" style a lot). Like the dress looks like a right shape, but her chest looks flat.

2. Her room. It's dark colors. Green, brown. Do you know which rooms have the same color scheme in this show? Men's rooms. Anthony's cabinet, Colin's cabinet, Colin's bedroom, Lord Fetherington's cabinet and bedroom. Only the red curtains look a little bit too bright/a little bit off, like if someone added them without redecorating the whole room to just slightly change the mood.

3. "I was married. He died." she said. Not "My husband died" or "I'm a widow", but this interesting wording. Sounds a little bit odd and smooth to tell the truth not telling the truth. Like old me died, new me is here right now.

4. When Benedict meets her for the 2nd time, she's looking at the statue. Again, most things on this show are intentional and meaningful. And that scene took to long to be just random. She's looking at the statue, that looks like a Venus statue. And Venus is who? Feminity, all the woman things. If she was ment to be "not so feminine lady" that won't be a first thing to choose for her to stare at, u know. Then why is she looking at it? Because she's glad to be who she always felt she is. Just a suggetion. Or maybe it's connected to the Androgyny of Venus in some statues? Idk, I'm not a Greek mythology pro, but that seemed to be an interesting scene to me

5. "Well, then you have misjudged me. I am all for brute strength. In fact, I much prefer it to aimless talking" she says. Which is interesting too. And right after that their dance happens. And it feels to me that there happens a conversation without words between them. While they're dancing, at some point she takes the male role and leads the dance. Benedict looks condused at first, but accepts it and they dance like this. (all the females are to the right, all the males are to the left, except for them) Was it "an action" instead of "the words" to discuss something?

6. The music while they're dancing. I've seen some complains of the showrunners reusing the music from the season 2. People say like that was the family moment etc. etc. But I rewatched that scene from the 2nd season (during the Bridgerton+Shama ball when no one came and they danced with each other) and it was not about the family. It was about the harmony, the harmony with yourself and being whoever you feels right to be without looking at what is and what is not appropriate for the sosciety. Which suits Lady Tilley and Benedict's dance if my theory is correct pretty nicely.

7. During their making out scene in her bed, her chest is covered with the cloth. Bridgerton show is usually not too shy to show nudity and if they need to not show female body, they prefer to use pretty underwear, but not such trick as cloth. Interesting, that in a promo for the 2nd part of season 3 she's in the bed wearing the drak robe. Which is again not too Bridgerton-y or feminine.

8. While in her bed, Benedict is on the righ side of the bed and she is on the left one. I was rewatching the older season and noticed that every time they show the spouses' bed there's the husband who's on the left side of the bed (Violet Bridgerton, Mondrich, Bassets, Kate+Anthony). Why? Because that's originally her part of the bed since you know... my theory.

9. "You're MY solicitor" she says to a solicitor when Benedict visits her. Usually solicitor works with male only. In the Queen Charlotte spin-off show Lady Danbury even says that solicitor would probably refuse to talk to her, so she decided not to sign her name saying "Better he think I'm an impolite man". And you know what? At the same time there's a person who looks at the inheritance documents and search for the frauds. What if he has questions to her "husbans"'s will papers and now her solicitor has to provide her some better papers to convince the inspector. "I shall retern with things in order" he replies. She also asks Benedict if he came to "overcharge her as well", so she either has a lack of money or she has to pay her solicitor an overcharged sum. What if it's the silence fee?

10. Well, and their first interaction with Benedict was "My apologies, I thought you were a... - A man?". And that's her first line ever in the show is. You may say "C'mon, teal, she's just a lady with male interests", BUT! the only scene that points at it is this one. She's pretty feminine all the other times and everyone of the ton talks to her like she's a lady. No shade. No judjment (like when they speak about Eloise during previous seasons or Anthony joking on Kate being able to shoot). If that was the point there would be more than one moment/line pointing at that.

I hope you enjoyed my little theory. Anyway, the 2nd part of the season is just in a week from now and we'll find out if I'm right or wrong UwU

Thank you for your attention~

"Wait for me after the concert and be ready to get your own little show babe"

Seeing the tall, permed hair boy leave for the stage with a sinful smirk, you straight off knew that doom would soon be knocking at your door.

Vernon has always been the composed and quiet type of boyfriend, while his s/o was a polar opposite : completely freaky minded. Your outer innocence was just a decoy to the filthy hoe inside. As much as you wanted to unleash the smutty side of yours before him, turn your bedroom times into an eccentric show, respecting Vernon's choices always stood up the first place.

But today, everything was gonna go down as you decided to let it all loose, temptations touching your tongue and spreading the wings of desire. And to your very surprise, everything went quite smoothly according to the premade wicked plan.Pairing your newly bought thigh high slit blazer dress with gladiator stilletos, you sheepishly made your way towards the crime scene : a.k.a backstage of seventeen's be the sun concert.

Leaning on the doorframe of the greenroom, you waited for the members' eyes to fall on you and as soon as they did, the whole room was echoing with praises. Used to always seeing you in baggy clothes, had all the 13's eyes glued onto your new black on black avatar as you foxily walked down to Vernon's chair and positioned yourself on his lap, more precisely his crotch. Grinding your bare hips onto his throbbing manhood, while putting your chonky thighs on show, you made sure to keep the flirty conversations going on steady with the others, not even bothering to pity the younger's muffled moans.

Soon after, a staff popped by to notify that it was time for the boys to go up the stage. Swirling up from the now aroused seat, you drew your thumb swiftly around vernon's earlobes and gave it a slight pinch,whilst passing all of them assuring hugs; your once a sweet little boy taking in each and every movement his girlfriend made, before finally leaving the premise,as he mouthed something into your ears.

You were so lost in enjoying the view of their concert from the backstage, that you didn't realize it was time for the last ending ment. Turning around on your heels, you decided to quickly sprint away from the venue, not wanting to be caught by Vernon. But guess what? Before you could even reach the stairs, the whole place went pitch black ; making you stop in your tracks as you felt a hot breath whisper on your neck, with hands snaking around your waist.

"How stupid of you baby, to think you can escape from me! Specially after that little trick of yours today" a devilish laugh leaving his lips as he turns your body around in one swish, making your chest hit on his toned abs.

"V-vernon. W-what trick are you talking 'bout?" puppy eyes visible under the lights coming from the stage, you asked all innocently, internally screaming for his freak side to show.

"Oh acting to be so innocent and all huh, aren't you,my dirty little girl!"your legs already giving up, just from his words.

"Lemme show you some of my own tricks then. Let's see how your body shudders under my grip love" saying this he swiftly picked up your body and slammed it on the wall; attaching his lips to yours the same instant.

By this time, you were already too hungry for him. So without wasting anymore seconds, you both start devouring each other's lips like beasts left unfed for days ; your tongues fighting for dominance inside each other when a tight slap from vernon's firm hands landed on your left butt, making you let out a soft moan,while he took this chance to take the upper hand.

His clothed dick, rubbing against your drenched pussy from under the dress, earning a shaky "Plss" from you.

"Plss what princess?" Vernon spoke against your trembling puffed up red lips,sloppily making his way down to your jaw.

"I need you in me Nonie. Pls" you somehow managed to answer in between moans.

"Not so fast baby. You need some punishment for being such a slut today; making me all hard just before the performance and letting the members get a show of what belongs to only me" he started sucking onto your neck and collarbone, leaving dark purple marks all over as his fingers teased your pulsating bud.

Vernon took no time and quickly pulled down your panties, lips still not leaving your neck, as he unannouncingly slid his digits into you, making you moan his name out load.

"Yes moan for me baby. Let everyone know how good this cub of yours makes you feel; that only I can make you cum this way." his words along with his paced up thrusts slowly forming a knot in your stomach.

"V-vernon I'm going to c - ahhh" before you could even complete the sentence, the younger's hands became saturated with your juices. Sucking you off of his fingers dry, he gently placed his lips onto yours again, giving you the taste of your insides.

"Mmmm look how good you taste sweetheart. I can have you for all of my meals throughout the entire day"

Seeing your legs collapse from the just washed out orgasm, Vernon reflexively pushed up your ass into thin air,wrapping your thighs around his waist; as he took out his painful erection out of his stained pants and lined it up on your entrance. One hand tightly squeezing your boobs, while the lips worked their way on your cleavage, he pushed himself inside of you in one go, his precum replacing the role of lube.

"You're still so fuxkin tight bitch, even after taking me in almost every night" a whimper leaving his lips as your walls tensed up around his length.

"N-nonie my pussy is only for you to ruin babie" you voice as you're driven into ecstasy by your once thought innocent boyfriend.

Arousal blurring his sanity,he starts ramming in you at a inhumane speed, making you see constellations before your eyes. Taking in his continuously rough thrusts, you soon felt your high riding by for the second time, as you drowned his member with your cum, half of it seeping down your legs.

"Such a desperate whore under my touch huh" he claims before draining himself in you completely, with the warmest feeling ever. Your insides felt so good, as if it was meant only to take his cum, a cozy home for his seeds.

"Remember this small exclusive show of mine, before pulling another trick like today, princess" Vernon whispers against your nape as he pulls up his pants, drying off your legs with his tongue, meanwhile carrying you to the car.

I have a lot of thoughts about I saw the tv glow that I feel the need to share fyi this is all super ramble-y so don’t expect the best work (I saw the tv glow spoilers)

•oh god Maddy is just like how I acted as a young lesbian in a small town ready to jump off something if I didn’t make it out soon

•second the way they used the inhaler as a constant foreshowdowing was insane

•the final scene where Owen was apologizing to everyone over something it’s implied they couldn’t see was TOO REAL MAN

•the way the film used Maddys connection to the pink opaque was so haunting of the way I treated Percy Jackson as a kid and teen I was convinced there would be a big thing that would show me what was right.

• maddys scene about “this isn’t how this is ment to feel was SO GOOD as someone who spends half there day listing to podcasts and watching shows and the other half sleeping like this isn’t how I’m ment to feel it doesn’t feel like anything

• the line “you won’t even remember your dying” in the context of queer repression is so insanely good because you can distract your self from everything but your own identity won’t become normal overnight you won’t remember your dying but that doesn’t mean you won’t die

•lastly there always still time was such a cool frame and the chalk being a constant theme of the pink opaque and the nightmare realm made me feral and the sentiment of there is always still time was so reassuring that I don’t need to know everything and I don’t need to be exactly who I’m going to be just yet

• the whole thing reminded me of the wtnv dialogue about “you will never be the same twice and much of your un happiness comes from trying to pretend you are” which is my favourite line from the whole show

Any ways I’ll add more I think

I'm glad someone in my feed has said that, so I can dedicate an entire post to this point. 

I didn't like The Hallway Scene. I swear I can explain. 

It wasn't bad, of course. It was good. I've seen quite a few intimacy scenes in different queer media (watched Queer as Folk for fox's sake) and so I'd say… there's an overall good intimacy scenes. And then there's YR intimacy scenes. For me s3 one was “overall good”, but not “YR-good”. 

Now, I know the creators wanted to do something more explicit from the very beginning. But they didn't, due to different reasons. In my opinion it ended in a very special way of portraying intimacy that can be rarely seen in the media. Gentle, sincere, sensual. It displayed not only the characters' desire, but also their other feelings about each other - and sometimes, perhaps even themselves. It felt like talking without words, like exploring oneself and one's feelings. This style was completely unique. Perhaps it was an accident, but it was a good thing.  

I won't even stop on the two scenes from s1. They were pure perfection and everything possible has been already said about it. But I want to stop on s2 scene. Remember how people discussed how beautifully it was set, how the viewers would not see anything after Wilhelm closed the curtains, symbolizing the boys finally getting privacy? This little action ment so much for them. We still saw their passion and love, but it wasn't explicit, and it was perfect. Like I've said before, here they are talking without words.

So for me, personally, the s3 scene didn't match with that style. It was closer to classic depiction of passion, with this rapid montage and how explicit the whole thing was. Once again, it's not a bad thing at all. I'm not trying to shame this type of scene here. It just makes me sad that yet another thing in s3 wasn't as special as it used to be in previous seasons. When I see people talking about how different s3 felt, this scene is one of those things I think about with "yeah, I know what you mean" in my head.

Hey jester! Can I make a request for a March 7th confessing to a male reader who secretly likes her back?

Greetings Ladies gentlemen and uh... things, when I was originally making this ask I forgot to save it as a draft so it deleted itself and I'm in pain, anyway some other stories I'm making are being blocked do to lack of knowledge on doing dialog, so this will be good practice.

March 7th x male reader

Back when March 7th first arrived on the Express from being saved from the cold emptiness of space, she was very awkward not knowing how to express her feelings took her a long figure out that they were in fact in love with you, so she turned to someone she knew could help her.

March 7th: "Himeko! I need help with something"

Himeko: "hmm? What is it March"

March 7th: "(Y/N) makes me feel funny"

Himeko: "what?"

After March explained what she actually ment Himeko told her to "just go for it". you see Himeko knows a lot of stuff and she seems like the type to know everything, and she most definitely manged to find out you had a secret crush on March.

Himeko: "March believe me just take the chance, you'll regret it if you don't"

March 7th: "but what if he doesn't like me and it ruins our friendship?"

After a lot of doubts and convincing Himeko got March to go to your room on the Express and knock on your door, she felt her heart pounding in her chest and without looking in the mirror she could tell she was blushing madly, but when you opened the door she steeled her nerves and took the leap of faith.

(Y/N): "oh hey March, what'd you need?"

March 7th: "(Y/N) I have something really important to tell you"

(Y/N): "oh what is it?"

It took her a couple seconds to come out with it but but when she did she couldn't keep it in her normal talking voice

March 7th: "I-I love you!"

She stopped herself there not wanting to spill more out and further embarrassing herself but you were stunned staring at her before breaking into a smile

(Y/N): "I love you too March I have for awhile now, I'm relived to hear you feel the same"

Upon hearing what you said to her she couldn't hold herself back anymore, she hugged you suddenly and nuzzled her head into your chest, not planning to leg go anytime soon you could only respond by gently hugging her.

Once news broke out about your new relationship together Himeko found you two adorable when you did stuff together, Mr. Yang was happy for you two, and same for Dan Heng though he was not to happy to learn he was going to listen to you drone on about how amazing March is.

Well I hope this was good I feel like it was shitty, though speaking of March 7th she actually helped me clear the Simulated Universe, now I can reliably do the higher level SU worlds to get 5 star relics thank god, but I'll see you all whenever I post next.

And scene...
