“you’re easy to love.” + pedri/ferran (ferran says it) thank you ❤️

A little angsty...

Ferran told them this is a bad idea. 

Somewhere out on the dance floor are their other teammates, who are finally letting loose after weeks of games and practices and media responsibilities. One weekend of rest before they have to gear up for the next La Liga matches. Hansi Flick warned them to be careful but otherwise, the world is theirs. And Ferran had every plan to be on the dancefloor with them, to think of anything until he saw Pedri at the bar. 

Ordering another drink. 

“This is a bad idea,” he warned Fermin, who ordered Pedri’s first drink and swore up and down that he’d keep an eye on him. Because Ferran remembers what happened in Berlin.

History has a way of repeating itself, Ferran thinks as he watches Pedri drain the glass.

“Everyone else has someone except me,” Pedri slurs.

“No. Half the team's single.”

“Why?”

“Why what?”

“Why don’t I have anyone?”

“I don’t know,” Ferran sighs. “Maybe because you stay  at home and play with your dog all day?”

Pedri makes a face. “Is that a euphemism?”

“That’s the truth.”

“Can I get another-”

“No,” Ferran cuts in, looking the bartender dead in the eye. “He’s had enough.”

Another face. “I can decide when I’ve had enough.”

“Pedri.” Ferran shakes his head at the bartender, who, having seen God, walks towards another patron.

Pedri folds his arms, but stumbles forward. Ferran catches him swiftly, straightening him up even though the midfielder is still mad. “You have it easy,” Pedri insists. “You can… be tall.”

Ferran tries not to laugh. “What?”

“You’re tall,” Pedri yells, eyes bright like it’s the first time he’s noticed his height. 

“That’s not-”

“You could get anyone you want! I message one girl on Instagram and I get ghosted after five messages. What gives?”

Ferran swallows the hard lump in his throat. “I can't get anyone I want,” he grits out. 

“Then it's me.”

“It's not.”

“Maybe I'm too hard to love.”

“Stop.”

“That has to be it, right?”

Here we go. Just like Berlin.

“Pedri, you’re not-”

“There has to be!”

It’s not fun anymore. Being here. It’s worse than Berlin, where Pedri was moping about his leg. This time, Ferran’s watching Pedri slide straight into the hell that is self-doubt. 

Wait. No. Pedri’s literally sliding.

The midfielder’s head thumps against Ferran’s chest.

“For fuck’s sake-”

“I’m always alone.”

Among the noise, Pedri’s words send a chill down Ferran’s spine.

“Do you really feel that way?” Ferran asks. Pedri doesn’t answer. “Can you hear me?”

Still no answer.

“Dumbass thought he could handle three drinks. Idiot. Dumbass.”

Silence.

“You’re easy to love.”

Nothing. 

“Loving you is so damn easy. I would know. Been doing it for years.”

Pedri mumbles, and his head digs heavily into Ferran’s sternum.

“What?”

“I said, can we go home?”

Ferran tightens his arm around Pedri's shoulder, the same way his chest tightens when Pedri’s phone lights up from another Instagram notification. “Yeah. Let’s go home.”

...but good news, you get a full Ao3 version. Hope you enjoy. 🍃

Anyone else imagining a role swap AU?

In this AU, the new companions' personalities and alignment would obviously be tweaked from their OG antagonistic selves to be more malleable to Tav's influence. And some of them would probably have to be made a bit younger to appeal to younger gamers, but that's an easy alteration. I thought these would be easy characters to fit into. That said, Viconia would probably fufill the role of Jaheira/Minsc as a previous BG companion who's non-romanceable this time around. Perhaps something like this:

Cazador is a vampire whose spawn betrayed him after discovering the Rite of Ascension, and they've all fled (conveniently timed since the nautiloid attack distracted him). He joins Tav to track them down, eventually revealing that the ceremony was for ascension, and Tav can either help him overcome his sadistic and controlling nature (perhaps his "children" may even forgive his years of abuse), have him kidnap the spawn again and complete the ritual, or have Cazador turn Tav into a spawn, only for Tav to turn against him and claim ascension for themselves.

Viconeia could pretty much be Shadowheart 2.0, having followed Shar and killed her previous group, only to be cast aside for the special daughter of Selune, and Viconeia feels abandoned. Tav could help Viconeia regain Shar's favor or turn against Shar.

Larroakan could hear about the Nightsing and hope to claim immortality (though he is weary about revealing this near Cazador), but you could turn him against it or kidnap her and offer immortality. Kinda like Gale's ascension to godhood. Perhaps in this AU, Gale is a recent god of ambition who Larroakan was inspired by, and Gale feels somewhat threatened by Larroakan's quest for immortality, believing he's trying to replace him as the GOA.

Mizora, as a half-fiend working for Zariel, isn't as malleable to the side of good, but Tav can sweettalk/persuade her into being slightly more altruistic. She's kinda just there for the ride rather than having a specific storyline.

Kithrak Voss could be recruited as the opposite of Lae'zel, loyal to Orpheus. But Tav can persuade him to discovering his own desires or returning to Vlakith.

Gortash could've hired Karlach as his bodyguard and took her under his wing, only for her to prove she's smarter than he knew, managing to expose his crimes and leave him in disgrace while Karlach became the hero of Baldur's Gate. You could help him get revenge, start fresh schemes somewhere else, or give up the political game entirely, with his backstory with his parents and Raphael being significant parts of his story.

As a Selune worshipper, Ketheric's up in odds against Viconeia, and his personal tragedy at losing his children (let's assume Thisobald and Gerringothe are also his children here) make his conviction even more admirable. When he discovers his daughter Isobel is alive, it reinvigorates his spirit. Tav can lead him down the path to cleansing the rot that's infested his former home, or (if Isobel dies again), take a new form amongst the decay caused by Halsin, a fallen druid who is the friend of Oliver.

Orin is the daughter/granddaughter of Sarevok Anchev, and has temporarily escaped his clutches thanks to the nautiloid, though Minthara, a temporary chosen of Bhall, is hot on her trail. Going between fits of madness and rage due to her heritage and upbringing, Tav can calm her mind or have her feed into the rage.

*nonpolitical I do not condone or support any hateful fascist ideology*

Fans of ww2 German related media who like fruity stuff: I just wanna talk about this new Indiana Jones video game- Indiana Jones and the Great Circle- and the fact two of the Nazi villains in it are so fruity and queer coded ahhhh. Dunno if intentionally but they feel sooo gay and I LOVE IT.

This is Emmerich Voss- the one with the glasses, and Viktor Gantz, the blonde Wehrmacht dude

They hate each other but they have the best kinda toxic yaoi dynamic. I see them definitely as the enemies to lovers trope. Let’s be for absolute real he’s totally planning on kissing Gantz in that cutscene, Voss

I highly recommend y’all either play this game or watch the gameplay or any content of it on YouTube (like I did because I’m not a gamer although I might play it we’ll see) because it’s a good story and these two characters are so damn lovable and funny and shippable and I love their angry homoerotic tension ❤️ it’s developed by the same people who did Wolfenstein- Bethesda/MachineGames, and I know that’s popular with a lot of y’all ww2 media fan folk so you can trust this game to have some memorable German military characters xD

Im a big fan of the Indiana Jones franchise overall especially the films that well have the Germans in them and I’ve noticed quite a few of the Germans have a sorta gay coding to them that again, probably isn’t intentional, but makes for fun fandom nerding purposes xD I could elaborate more on that later but alas! I’ve crushed on several of the Germans in the franchise but I think these two are perhaps some of the most conventionally attractive and well developed so far- and the ones who have some sorta non crack explanation for being shipped

I definitely recommend checking out the actual Indiana Jones movies- Raiders of the Lost Ark, Last Crusade, Dial of Destiny- those are the ones with the Nazis in them, just to immerse yourself in this universe better if you’re not familiar as there are references to the former two in this game etc. but you could totally play this game without any prior knowledge of the film(s) as well but it would be advantageous to do so and you’d gain more characters to crush on😆

Ship fanart of these two is coming! Already came up with a ship name- either Emmerichtor or Emmeriktor

Also did I mention the voice actor for Gantz, Tom Beck, is a singer. He has a beautiful voice and I can sleep peacefully knowing Gantz can sing to me. 😂 ❤️ Spotify screenshot below!

this is literally what happened i believe

Of Perfect Paintings

A few days, that is what he said it would take to create what he would consider one of his greatest masterpieces. For this wasn’t just any painting but it would serve as a memory, a memory that all would be able to see. Most of his artwork was never displayed or sold but instead some of his work was given to friends or kept in a corner. Never seeing the light of day again after he finished them.

He stood looking at his canvas for quite some time wearing a simple gray cotton shirt and black dress pants. Unlike other artists, Voss was clean, not even wasting a drop of paint that the man crafted himself, aside from those that gifted him a few sets. Close by was his faithful companion Vilkas who also had been watching the bastard for the past several hours.  “What do you think, did I capture their beauty?” Voss said looking down at the large dire wolf who only huffed and looked at him, “What.. Don’t give me that look.” He placed his paintbrush down sitting on the floor beside Vilkas. His right hand began running through the wolf’s copper colored fur, “Don’t worry old friend, she should be coming back soon. I miss her too bud.” 

It wasn’t like Oricila and Voss to be apart in fact you couldn’t have one without the other. Ever since their reunion they have been at each other's side but when the wind drifted words of a man similar to Rhoran, Oricila had to leave in search of finding if the tales were true. Vilkas, who had also been at Ori’s side since she was little, was left behind to keep Vilkas out of trouble, even though there was Umari to assist. Vilkas moved his head and rested it against the bastard’s leg whimpering at the very mention of Oricila, “Oi! You don’t start that now, we don’t cry over the women we love.”

Vilkas lifted his head and huffed once again giving him a stare as if Voss wasn’t crying the other night about the one that got away, “Don’t you judge me, I was drunk.” Voss said, looking away while his hand continued to pet Vilkas, “Alright boy, up.”  As he began dusting the dirt off his backside, a voice they missed soon filled the room.

“Don’t be giving my boy a hard time. He’s okay to give ya a hard one. You do it to us plenty.”

Oricila said as she entered the room with Mia at her side. Her eyes drifted towards the painting seeing two familiar faces, “I see you are still trying to win her back. Some things never changed.” The white fur dire wolf rushed tackling Vilkas, giving him quite the affection before laying beside him.

A soft sigh escaped the bastard’s lips, “Valeria passed away.” He brought a small box out from his dresser, handing it to Oricila, “We did the final send off a few days ago. She asked for one of my paintings and I felt this one would be perfect for her to hang in her home. Besides, there's no getting her back. Guess one can say the best man won for her.”

Silence claimed the beauty as she opened the box seeing the same leather bracelet she wore only this time there was an added charm. Her head lifted somewhat stunned by his words, “How is she?” She asked as she took off her old leather bracelet and replaced it with the new one.

“She is well, I mean she’s a mother now. Even said I could meet the kids.”

The very mention of Vahalia made Oricila’s jaw drop, “Come again? You sure you aren’t drunk and talking about a different woman now.”

Voss chuckled, “Same gal, same beauty, same woman who will probably plant another surprise on my ship. I was in shock too when she told me but if you don’t believe me you can ask Umari. She was there during our talk. So don’t worry I was a good boy the whole time you were gone. Were you able to find him by the way?” One again the bastard picked up his paint brush looking at the painting. Vahalia sitting on the chair with Valeria sitting on the arm of the chair close to her sister. He even perfected their faces offering Vahalia a bit of softness to her just so she could remember the joy she had with her sister by her side.

"Nothing yet.. There's just been the same talk of someone fitting his description but nothing that sticks and nothing about where they last seen him." Oricila sighed as she sunk into the seat watching Voss focus, "I don't think I ever seen you give up one of your paintings before I mean you gave them to family but the last time you gifted one to a friend was..." She stopped not even daring to mention the name as she looked down at the leather bracelet.

"Yeah well Valeria was one of us and maybe I still have a soft spot for Vahalia. Either way she saw the other painting I did and well now here I am. " He began adding a few final touches adding a few strokes here and there, dabbing a bit of paint there. Finally again he put his brush down and took a step back.

"So does she know.. Did you finally grow the balls to tell her?"

"She does but as I said the better man won. And even then we are different. She has duty and I have the bitch of a sea that keeps me from settling down. Maybe if I was of noble blood or something."

"I leave for a couple of moons and you're over here being... Good." Her facial expression didn't even hide the confusion on her face as she looked down at her two wolves, "Vilkas are you sure this is Voss?" The copper haired wolf gave a nod causing Oricila to smile, "Guess someone is a bit more mature now. Good boy Voss, only took you how many years?" "Oi! You say that now but wait until you meet the new guy we work for. Nothing has changed then." Voss snickered, "Don't worry I am sure he will love you and pretty sure you also may have to worry about him being drunk. He tends to lay it on thick but I think Umari has him tamed. Who knows." He took one final glance before writing his signature on the lower right corner of the canvas, "And finished."

Oricila just stared, "I leave and now we work for someone. Trading? Cargo? What are we working with?"

"A little bit of everything." Voss smirked, "Be prepared to get your bow and the wolves dirty. Don't worry Vilkas already met him. Welcome home Beauty! Surrounded by all the chaos that you've grown to love." He snickered before taking a seat beside her.

"Remind me to never ever leave you alone again. So when do I get to meet our new boss?"

"When we head back but hey maybe before you leave should say hello to Vahalia. Can distract her while I give her a parting gift."

Oricila shook her head a sigh of annoyance escaped her lips, "Voss.. how am I still friends with you. I should find a new crew to work with."

"And then you will be bored and wish you had me back." He wrapped his arms around her and placed a sloppy kiss against her cheek, "I'll go tell the crew you are back. Can't wait for Thierry to find out." He quickly shot up walking out his room and screamed for all to hear, "OUR BEAUTY IS HOME!" The sound of the crew cheering echoed through the wood of the ship and touched Oricila's ears. A low groan was heard as she sank into her seat, "Of all days." Vilkas and Mia both moved closer towards Oricila placing their head on each of her thigh trying to offer her comfort, " Thank you both. Well guess tonight is going to be a long one. Better get out there before Thierry comes barging in." She stood up walked towards the painting looking over the two sisters, "I can't imagine what you're going through Vahalia. To lose a sibling.. I couldn't imagine what would happen if I lost my brother..." Her eyes drifted towards Valeria, "You shown the bastard kindness. Made him see reason when I could not." With all the loud chatter and cheers coming from outside it was enough to drown out the sounds inside the room. She wasn't there for the final sendoff and like every other crew member did and Voss, Oricila let out a howl of her own causing both Mia and Vilkas to follow, "May the next sea be kind to you Valeria as you were to us all." She smiled before leaving the captain's cabin with both her dire wolves at each of her side.

The next day the painting was sent along with a note attached for Vahalia to read:

I hope this painting helps you to remember the way that she lived and not the way that she died. Remember your heart can't focus on both darling. Remember the good times just as well will over here. With love, Voss
