Flash Family Reunion 2

Barry: What did you get Bart for his birthday?

Wally: Linda and I got him a dog.

Barry: No way! So did me and Iris!

Jessie: I also got Bart a dog!

Max: Looks like we had the same idea.

Wally: Carol! Please tell me you didn't get Bart a dog as well!

Carol: I got him a puppy!

Bart: (sitting on the ground, surrounded by dogs)

Bart: THIS IS THE BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!

Peaky women appreciation post

Here’s to these gorgeous and strong women…

First up- the one and only Queen. My fav, she made Tommy alive again. She was his rock, his light, his hope and everything right in his life. The badass Spy turned Saviour for orphaned children of Birmingham.

May- I loved the class and calmness she brought, she was a good companion for Tommy. Her heart was in the right place and she was a good person but more importantly she was also dignified and strong. She clearly had feelings for Tommy in s4, yet she chose to be practical and listen to her mind. In the end it was the right decision.

Tatiana- She is too much to handle. She was crazy and smart in equal parts. Even gorgeous and toxic in equal parts, she was better off far away from Tommy though. I liked her in my second watch!!

Jessie- Passionate about her cause, not afraid to stand up to Tommy Shelby, a woman on a mission👏

Another Queen- this Shelby sister was always vocal about her feelings, did everything on her own terms. Became Tommy’s rock when he trusted no on else. He needed her for both matters of heart and business.

The other Mrs Shelbys- Special mention to these two. I liked Esme in s2 until they ruined her character and made her a cribber. She was not afraid to give opinions and fight for what she wanted. Linda was annoying but I never hated her. She really did try to help Arthur, he needed her. She held her own as a much as she could but I was glad the way she stood up and said enough is enough.

*******

This one doesn’t make it to my Gorgeous Strong women list!! Seriously what the fuck was she thinking when she was trying to bring Angel to Tommy and Grace’s wedding?!?! She was just jealous and probably wanted Tommy’s attention by not following orders and pissing him off. But she ended up messing up everyone’s lives😡 “i fucked your husband…”😵‍💫😵‍💫 ewwww

[ultimate-redheads-championship]

Okay so this is the Ultimate Redheads Championship! First up we are having character submissions :)

I'll edit this post as submissions come in (via askbox) and once we reach ??? or deadline ??? the championship will start! inspired by a bunch of different ones

If you want to co-host this just send in an ask and we can chat.

sincerely,

your local redheaded mod xD

~~~

How this will work

Once submissions are closed, the first round will commence, the family elimination round. I'll tag it #family elimination. Depending on the traction/interest this has received I'll either set the polls for a day or a week, and will be to eliminate family or closely connected characters from competing against each other. The only two families I know of currently in this round are the Blythes (Anne of Green Gables) and the Weasleys (Harry Potter). If you're submitting characters where there are multiple redheads in the family, please make a note of this in the submission. I may also eliminate multiples in the same fandom depending on how many submissions we have, also in this round. (e.g. there are two DC characters currently listed).

After that, I'll set up the brackets and whatnot and the ultimate redhead will, by process of elimination, be chosen!

After it's over, there will also be a redheaded OCs round (can be fandom OCs or from original stories). Feel free to submit your interest at any time and I'll keep the ask in my inbox until we get to handling the OC round with a proper template for information about them. If you submit OCs to the main bracket without clarification they will be deleted or put in the main bracket.

Okay one Tommy sex life theory coming up

Les do this ✌🏻

(also gotta give @pipsqueak-loves-everything a lotta credit for this cuz she's my theory other half).

Please read it all 💀

I first saw a post about how Tommy likes to be ✨ridden✨ a lot and cuz im me I send her the post and we theorise over it

And we came up with several points about it all...

What these scenes are proving at least to me and Pip that the bedroom is the only time Tommy let's go... He isn't the *in charge*, where he let's girls especially if they're on top take control and isn't the business man we all know him as.

I am equalling the girls being on top to Tommy letting go and allowing pleasure so to speak.. The girls he has let... Take control are Grace, May and Jessie the most, I'm not gonna talk about the scene where he fucks Tatiana because that's a whole other thing. I found after watching Peaky *A LOT*, Tommy also seems the most relaxed with these females as well, just in general....

With Lizzie it's different let me explain...

I just want to preface this and say I AM HERE FOR LIZZIE, she's amazing and incredible and I am urging her to find happiness but

That's not Tommy

Lizzie for Tommy has always been the woman he gets with to fuck out frustrations, he practically confirmed this in 5x03 where he said "well in my head, I still pay ya for it"

Which shows that to him, she is still that whore he visits, I hate saying that cuz I love Lizzie but in Tommys mind that's who she is.

Another thing that supports this theory is that: he is ALWAYS on top or the dominant one when it comes to Lizzie, from what I remember anyway...

If we liken Tommy being ✨ridden✨ as to him letting go and not being the business guy and allowing pleasure and being open to that

Whilst he has been on top with the others he has been shown let go of control there

He isn't getting pleasure nor is he open to it with Lizzie, it just isn't as intimate as the others

EVEN MORE evidence for this

Is the fact the only time we saw a softer more romantic time to Tommy x Lizzie is during the one where Ruby was conceived when he was fucking Lizzie but thinking of Greta, that was the only time we saw a softer side of Tommy towards Lizzie, hand holding, gentler movements etc.

Continuing Tommy has paid Lizzie for sex in the past and during those times hasn't fucked her because there is genuine feelings, he fucked her to fuck her, unlike others where he's slept with them because there's a connection, however big/small, there was a want and urge from both sides, not because there was money involved

Rounding it up...

I don't think sex with Lizzie for him is enjoyable as we don't see Tommy let go of the control, like he has done with others, I think he married her when she got preg because it was the honourable thing to do

Also so Charles could have a mother and a 'balanced' life style. As well as possibly for a career move as well.

But he doesn't enjoy her.

I hope in s6 both Lizzie and Tommy find happiness and partners they deserve ✨

If you made it this far I hope you're having a good day because you deserve the world ✨

The Flash 3x14

it’s funny seeing Valentines Day episodes weeks after the actual day is past, but that’s not a bad thing

HR and Harry clashing made me smile; Tom Cavanagh was brilliant acting against himself. and I must say, it was lovely to have Harry Wells back. He might be an ass sometimes, but he also actually cares and he showed that with Barry and Cisco.

speaking of acting, Jesse L. Martin playing Joe West being mind controlled by Grodd was flat out amazing. Also, I thought for a split second that he would actually die, so I’m relieved he didn’t.

Caitlin encouraging Cisco was nice. Also, girl, who are you fooling you and Julien are totally into each other

I figured Gypsy would come back at the end, and I was right. Also, Cisco helping her see that she could be a hero was well done. Also, that moment at the end, when she kissed him and was all “you couldn’t handle it” and he was all “Imma marry that woman” makes me happy.

Lisa Snart mention! yay! but it seems from IMDB that she’s on other shows right now. I hope she can come back even for a cameo or flashback or something because she deserves it, and I would want to not only see her and Cisco interact, but also her find out about Leonard.

anyway, Barry’s struggle this episode is one that I think all heroes face; whether or not they will kill villains or find another way

I’m so glad he did find another way, because I don’t want him to lose himself. [But sidenote, hasn’t he killed evil metas before? or am I missing something]

anyway, I did not expect to see Sullovar again, but that Sullovar/Grodd fight was insane, and my jaw hit the floor almost the whole time.

I kinda figured Harry was lying, and again, I was right and Jessie saw right through him. But at least it got resolved, and they parted on good terms because her happiness is what’s most important, and her and Wally belong together.

and speaking of romance, Barry set up this whole wonderful story and candles and everything, and proposed to Iris! but of course the episode cuts out before we hear her answer. Dammit. still, it makes my Westallen heart very feelsy

spoilers for next episode: looks like Savitar is finding a way to reach out through the cracks in the Speed Force, and make people have visions of him.

[thegirlwiththeleadarrow]

I could have all the speed in the world-- I'm not complete without you.

Wally West to Jessie "Quick" Wells, making my heart explode

[arrow-v-flash-polls]

Which of these winning Wally ships is your favourite?

[incorrectcomicbookquotes]

Iris: Being married to a Flash is great!

Linda: So great!

Rick: The best!

Iris: But when it comes to dates and events, they can be a tad tardy.

Linda: Almost unpunctual.

Rick: They're slowpokes.

[halalgirlmeg]

You were watching the flash right? Do that for the ask game :)

!!! Bestie so glad you asked okay

Favorite Male Character: Wally

Favorite Female Character: Iris

Least Favorite Character: Zoom bc he's so damn evil. I thought season 1 was bad I HATED that man.

Prettiest Character: Iris

Funniest Character: Cisco. His comedic timing is fantastic

Favorite Season: I've only season 1-3 in full so I say season 2. The whole Zoom fiasco and parallel universes and the big reveal of the guy in the mask. Loved it all.

Favorite Episode: this is an unfair question bc I love time travel episodes and this show is rife with them but if I'm picking off the top of my head. Probably when they went to Earth-2 when Joe was a singer.

Favorite Romantic Ship: Iris x Me x Barry jk it's Iris x Barry

Favorite Family Ship: Joe x Iris x Wally love the whole dynamic

Favorite Friend Ship: Cisco x Caitlyn

Worst Ship: Barry x Caitlyn AND Jessie x Wally.

Yes I'm a Hater but that's not the point. They both feel racist but for different reasons first of all romantically speaking with Barry and Caitlyn...bitch where. They are bestie vibes only. Caitlyn and Cisco would make more sense. Which also the fact that I never see that idea thrown around again feels a little racist. And I mean Barry x Iris were obvious from the start like...there was no subtlety...like at all. For a minute that bait and switch stuff was driving me nuts like let them be together and STAY TOGETHER I mean damn!

Jessie x Wally isn't terrible like I mean I guess whatever, but as someone who's been a Keiynan Lonsdale fan since I was in HS since like when he was on Dance Academy like what do you people have against giving him a Black Love Interest, two different countries and like 3 shows and Black people don't exist apparently I mean 🙄

Don’t Go

Harry wells x reader

Characters: y/n, Harry wells, Jessie, Wally, H.R, Cisco, Barry, Iris, Catlin, Joe, Cecile, Savitar

Notes: y/n (your name)

Summary: Savitar kills you instead of iris

——————————————

You were dead.

It all happened so fast. Savitar grasped you from the throat his other claw inches from your heart as he squeezed on your airway. Team flash all stood in front of you, Harry at the front begging Savitar to stop as tears slowly made its way to his eyes. His heart ached seeing the shocked scared expression on your face. Just as black dots appeared in front of your eyes Savitar dropped you sticking his claw in to your chest as you fell.Harry jumped forward as you hit the floor feeling his heart brake watching the blood pour from your wound. He was by your side instantly putting pressure on the wound all while whispering “Stay with me y/n”.

“Please don’t go. We were meant to be together. Please don’t go.” You could feel the pain easing as the white light came closer. “Harry babe I’m dying it’s ok. There’s nothing you can do”

“No don’t say that you’ll be fine” Harry sobbed as his shoulders shook. “Barry” you said. Barry came rushing over “Hey I’m here”he said holding your head.

“Go get him Barry. Go get him I believe in you”

Barry stood up and went back to iris leaving you and Harry together. Your breathing slowed and your eyes kept closing and opening. You could feel Harry’s warm tears on your face as he gripped your hand with the engagement ring on. You reached up giving him one last kiss before your other hand slipped of his lap and your head fell back.

“No. No. No. Come on y/n breathe” Harry repeated while doing CPR on you. Jessie stood their crying into Wally’s chest; iris was silently crying into Barry’s side as he stood their shocked. Cecile had her head buried in Joes chest while slow tears fell down both their faces. Catlin stood next to Cisco both of them crying while H.R stood their wishing he had gone through with his plan instead of being a coward. In the middle of everyone Harry was knelt down with you on his knees while he held you close his heart had been torn out his chest as his back shook from his silent sobs.

You were dead.

—————————————

3 weeks later

Harry sat on his bed holding onto your engagement ring ,his eyes red with purple bags underneath them, as he stared at a photo of you and him. You had the biggest smile on your face Harry had a big smile on his face too. It was one of the rare times where you were happy it didn’t happen often so Harry tried to get a picture when it did. Harry had took you to a beach it was the day of the proposal and you could see the nervousness in his eyes. Harry would never forget that day. Interrupting his thought Harry heard a knock on the door and let them in not bothering to see who it was. Team flash had tried for days to get Harry to leave his bedroom but they had failed miserably so they resorted to leaving a some food on the table. They didn’t know about him leaving his room and going up to the rooftop,your favourite part of star labs, for fresh air but he didn’t care. You were dead. That’s all he could think.

You were dead.

[wattpadscapcons]

Hiya! I just wanted to ask you who from Pokémon are you comfortable writing for? Just so that I don’t request a character that you don’t vibe with on accident!

I would be willing to write for many pokemon trainers throughout Gen 1 to 7. I could try for gym leaders as well but it may take me a lot longer to get it done since I have more knowledge on like... main characters I guess?

I wouldn't write for characters that are already canonically married or have had gran-children. So like I won't write for Lilly's Mom, Professor Oak, Professor Kukui and his wife, and a few others I just can't think of at the moment. Or Brock because of his obvious issue with women.

Bianca & Cheren would also be a no as well, due to me not knowing much about their background information.

If you request a character I don't know all that much about I'll let you know.

Karivarry AU and compliments

Ok so I don't know if this qualifies as a present but I have this big Karivarry AU that I really love and will probably never write so I thought I'd share ! (Btw you totally got me hooked on this ship to the point where I can't imagine stuff in the Arrowverse without these 3 togethers x) 

Anyway here's my Au 

- basically it's a Band au 

- Kara is the lead singer of The Superfriends (with Alex at the bass, James at the guitar and back up singer, Clark at the battery, Lena at the clavier, Winn special effect/mixing (on stage) and back up singer and J'onn their manager) 

- Oliver is the lead singer and guitarist of The Arrows (Dig at the battery, Felicity at the clavier, Laurel at the bass, Thea as the second guitar and back up singer, Roy as their Roadie)

- Barry as the lead singer of Star (Cisco with a guitar and backup singer, Iris with a bass (cause I'm a weak lesbian what can I say, I love her), Ralph with the battery, Caitlin at the clavier, Wally as the second guitar and Harry as their Manager with Jessie that just hangs around)

- They're all pretty popular (not like playing in stadiums popular but like with a good fanbase and all rival) 

- So there's this big contest of the band and they end up against one another

- Tensions run high especially between Kara and Oliver with Barry trying to act as a buffer

- they end up having to do press during the contest and since they're the leads they have to do them with the others (like their the favorites soooo) 

- Ofc they end up together and finish the contest with a big concert with the three bands and end up being tied (whether by the public or the judges voting) so they declare themselves winners cause who said there couldn't be 3 winners 

- Also there's Theroy, Dansen, Sonwest, QuickWest and Winn/James cause I love those ships too (I also live Brainia but I couldn't figure out where to put them sooooo (to be fair I didn't find a place for Kelly either but she can just be a fan)) 

Now it's compliment time ! 

So you got me sooooo hooked on this ship and I thank you x) Like I thought of it before but never much and they work so well together ! Even though we were robed of a SuperArrow crossover and we really haven't seen them interacting all that much... (they could have made something awesome by just having Kara without her powers for a few days (like she used them too much) so she decides to take a few days of vacation to go see her friends on E-1. They have to face X villain and both heroes can shine, Oliver by not being next to someone with superpowers and Kara proving that she's more that her powers even in combat (because the aliens she goes against often have the same strength as her so she could probably fight with regular humans even without powers) + a training scene between these two would have been fantastic + Oliver realizing he can trust Kara and everything to have (even if it's platonic) the foundation a good partnership !) And I got off track x) 

Your edits on youtube are awesome and I just realized they were yours ! My favorite is "Oops" btw ^^

You write so well godsdammit ! Your stories are entertaining and everything ! So kudos ! 

I really love your soulmate fic too *^* 

Well I hope you like this gift x) Still don't know if it counts but you sound really cool and I have no one to talk about Karivarry sooooooooo I hope you enjoyed ! 

Love, 

Alex.

——

They popped back up in the living room of Nash’s place, Harry holding onto Emily for a moment when they touched ground again not really wanting to let her go. “You good?” she asked making sure his footing was stable. “Yup, I’m good,” Harry assured. “You sure?” She asked with a smirk lifting their still joined hands. “Mhmm,” he repeated still holding on. Her heart skipped when he smirked making her tense for a second. “Ok, good,” she said letting his hand go and moving to take her shoes off. “So, I’m assuming you may be hungry? Want anything?” She asked making her way to the kitchen. “No, I’m ok for now,” he dismissed shaking his head. After taking off his shoes and jacket he followed her to the kitchen. Her heart rate picked up as he got closer and she bit her lip trying to keep herself together. “Theeeeen what.... did you waaaaanna do?” Harry shrugged. “I dunno,” he stated casually somewhat amused at her discomfort. It was his turn to make her blush and he was going to have fun with it.

“Ok, well, I’m gonna go.... make a snack. Or something. Should probably calibrate and affix your neural scanner first though.”

“Oh right, yeah. Should probably... do that....” he said pulling out the device and handing it to her. He followed her into the kitchen and took a seat, Emily standing in front of him given he was so tall even on a chair. As she concentrated making sure everything was in order, Harry studied her with a smile that slowly got wider the longer she took. He saw her brows furrow, her eyes fixate on her task, pupils dilate, mouth pouted and even her tongue stuck out the side of her mouth a little. “Hmmkay... that should do it,” she said completing affixing the small device to his forehead. Smiling satisfied she caught him looking at her with soft eyes. “What? Why are you looking at me like that?” She asked.

“Just... watching you concentrate,” Harry said with a shrug. “You know, you stick your tongue out and your pupils dilate when you zone out?” He smiled leaning forward and pointing at her. Emily smiled embarrassedly putting her hand in his face to push him away. “Pfffff— stop... staring at meeee,” she whines with a giggle. “Das rude!”

“Maybe I don’t want to,” Harry teased grabbing her hand and removing it from impeding his vision. Emily squinted before licking her other palm and planting it square in the middle of his face prompting him to release her hand in order to wipe the saliva off. She took the opportunity to retreat away all the while giggling at his sounds of disgust. “Uuuugh, why!” He complained.

“I need my hand to make snacks, how else was I supposed to get you to let go?”

“You could have asked!”

“Were you really gonna let it go?”

Harry paused. “.....yes, I would have.”

“You hesitated!” Emily accused pointing at him from across the table squinting suspiciously.

“I would have! ...... Eventually.....” Harry admitted sheepishly. “Mhmm, yeah sure,” she said with a smirk. “Anyway, I’m gonna go change into comfy pj’s and then make a snack. Technically this is your place too so go get comfortable or something. I’ll be back.” She poked her head back out of the door she had just disappeared into after a brief pause. “Don’t worry, I’ll wear pants this time,” she assured and grinned. Harry grinned with a nervous chuckle still sitting at the table and she disappeared again. He sat steeping in uncertainty, his ears beginning to burn as he debated telling her what was on his mind the entire time she was gone today. When she wandered back into the kitchen muttering her nightly to-do list he decided to blurt it out. As she said, how often would he get this opportunity again?

“Hey Emily,” he said quickly standing nearly tipping over the chair. Emily’s head snapped over to him in surprise having been jolted from her thoughts by both his voice and the noise of the chair. “Ack! Oh, you ok?”

“Yeah, ah, I’m fine,” he dismissed righting the chair and breezing over to her. “I.... have spent a lot of time thinking. Today. W-while you were.... out....”

“Ok?” she said raising an eyebrow curiously and leaned against the table. “Whaaaaat was it you thought about and conclusion did you come to? If you came to one.” Harry paused before averting his gaze and scratched his face. “Well.... as you can imagine,” he started. “Things were, well quite a lot for me to take in. Today.”

“Mhmm, though you handled it rather well from what I understand.”

“Yeah, well, I guess..... I guess a few... wires, may have been crossed. So to say.”

“I would say so, yeah,” Emily affirmed.

“No, you don’t understand, it’s more than just me being front and center. I’m talking about......” he paused, his breath seeming to catch and he felt really rather warm now. “Harry?” Emily said concerned.

“Emily I.... I think.... I think I’ve been, feeling things.” Harry stuttered trying to explain himself. “And I spent a lot, and I mean a lot, of time thinking it over because I wanted to make sure it was not just carry over from Nash or....” he looked up at her making eye contact, eyes both apprehensive and anxious. “Or me....” Emily’s heart stopped and her cheeks became rosy. “Whaaaat do you mean?” she asked trying to keep her voice level.

“Well, I— as I’ve said— I was doing quite a lot of thinking today, and going over past memories and doing a bit of.... self reflection I.... I guess. And I came to the conclusion that..... that......” Emily’s eyes grew wide in anticipation and she barely breathed waiting for him to speak. Harry relaxed his shoulders and his face softened. “I love you.” Her breath caught and all she could do was stare at him. “I know, I know,” Harry said after the awkward silence, “this is a really bad time to be bringing that up but, I just..... I was afraid and then Earth 2 was destroyed by the Anti-Monitor and..... and I really regret not telling you sooner.”

A tiny smile cracked Emily’s face and she looked down at the floor scratching her head. “And here I was thinking I scared you off....” she muttered. “Wait, you....?” Harry asked. “Yeaahhh,” she said smiling at him shyly. “But, I mean, you took your wife’s death hard and I thought at some points in time I was over stepping soooo...... I did my best to quash them. The feelings, I mean.” Harry smiled and sighed. “Mixed signals, god I hate those...”

“Eh well, I was.... admittedly, a little scared too,” Emily explained. “Being ripped away at any point and all that doesn’t exactly make for eager relationship mentality.”

“You know people go through a similar fear, called death, right?” Harry asked.

“Yeah.... I know. I’ve been told the before believe it or not,” Emily followed, “But by that logic, I’ve been through that pain, and inflicted that same pain, half a dozen times at the least. Does that indicate someone who would want to make another connection only to hurt someone like that?”

“No, not really,” Harry admitted. “So then.... why Nash?” Emily pursed her lips and shifted very wide eyes to the sides. “I..... guess I have a type? I’m sure Sherloque could relate,” she smiled a cheesy smile. “Besides, in case you didn’t notice, he had to do an awful lot of convincing.”

“Yeah, I guess,” he sighed. “Didn’t hesitate like I did either.”

“No, no he was.... quite persistent. Took him a while to pluck up the courage though.” Emily smiled and Harry mirrored it. “Soooo, then I have a..... question. For you,” he said slowly walking over like he was embarrassed or too shy. “Can I kiss you?” He asked after a hesitated pause. Emily tensed at the question and chewed on her top lip trying to keep goosebumps from erupting all over. “Why don’t you, try and find out?” She asked smirking a little with hints of deviousness. Harry’s heart stopped, he half expected a yes but didn’t think it would come in the form of a challenge. Tentatively he leaned forward after shaking off his surprise and met her lips with his. They stayed like that for a moment letting the kiss linger between them as they absorbed the tingling feeling that came with it. “So that’s what I missed, hmm?” he commented after they parted. “You’re not half bad yourself,” Emily observed with a smile. Harry chuckled. “If Jessie saw me now. By the way, have you seen her? How is she?”

Emily’s smile dropped a bit. “I.... I uh....”

Harry’s entire face dropped noticing her change in body langue. “Jessie.....”

“I haven’t seen her since, uh, since the universes merged,” Emily admitted causing Harry to turn away, she thought he would pass out with how pale he became. “But! Buuuuut, that doesn’t meeeean she doesn’t exist anymore,” she said rubbing his shoulder, he leaned over the table and stared at the surface with a blank expression. “Cisco traveled around to study and catalog all the changes that have showed up including new metas. And we haven’t seen Wallie around in a while, it’s possible they’ve come across her.”

“Yeah, yeah I guess you’re right,” he muttered.

“Why don’t you, uhm, make a list of things you’d.... like me to ask her. When I do find her, hmm?” she asked trying to distract him.

“Yeah.... yeah I’ll.... I think I’ll do that.” Harry nodded. He slowly shuffled his way into the bedroom and sat on the bed. *Yet another thing to absorb,* he thought to himself.

“I’ll be out here if you need me. For anything,” Emily assured with a gentle smile. Harry nodded and she closed the door to give him quiet. *I think now would be an opportune time for brownies,* she thought to herself. *Not that there’s ever a wrong time for them.* She smiled to herself and headed off to raid the cupboards for ingredients.

Harry wasn’t sure how long he sat in the quiet room, but he knew it was an hour at the very least by the ringing now very pronounced in his ears. He had compiled a short list of things he wanted to know about Jessie, short for him anyway, mainly pertaining to how she was doing to making sure she was taking care of herself and he wished to tell her he loved her. He also wrote down a few things he wanted Emily to do for him occasionally in regard to keeping an eye on her. Rubbing his face with a hand he sighed deeply, too much thinking and digestion of information for one day had made him very tired and for once he really wanted to not think about anything. He decided to exit the room and find Emily to see what she had found to make for a snack, and what she considered a snack.

Peeking out of the door he first found a smell of chocolate wafting through the air, then heard humming coming from Emily and similar buzzing from a drone or two. Coming closer to the kitchen, he heard bare feet tapping on the floor and laughter every now and then. He stood in the doorway and leaned against the frame watching with a smile, and after a short while Emily happened to turn enough to catch him watching. “What are you doing waaay over there?” She asked with a giggle.

“Oh, you know. Watching,” he replied.

“Being a creeper, eh?” She smiled making her way over to him. “Creeper? What?” He responded in mock insult. She smiled a little wider. “Creeeeeep-errrrrr,” she said and poked his nose leaving a substance on it. Recoiling at the unknown, Harry touched it to find it was brown and smooth in texture. “Fudge?” He asked confused.

Emily grinned again making her way back over to the counter. “Fudge brownies! My favorite, and guaranteed to cheer anyone up,” she said gesturing dramatically to the still hot bake pan. Harry followed and inspected her handiwork. “Is it all done?” He asked. Emily nodded. “Yup, should be cooled enough t— hey wait, what are you doing?” she asked suddenly noticing Harry move to put his entire open hand right on top of the fudge icing she had finished spreading moments ago. Before she could stop him he firmly planted it in the middle of the pan thoroughly coating it. “Ahh! No, my brownies!!” She near screeched. “Why did y—“ her sentence was cut off by the sudden chocolatey hand plopped into the middle of her face. She froze in disbelief leaving Harry to just smile smugly. “For calling me a butthead earlier,” he explained noting her questioning look. “And the saliva handprint.” Emily’s shoulders dropped. “Fair,” she relented. “But did you really have to ruin such beautiful brownies?”

“I really had to ruin your beautiful brownies,” he confirmed. “But are they really ruined? I think they look better.”

“You know, this isn’t what is meant when the request for a hand is given,” Emily replied washing her face. “So I’ll not ask you for a hand in anything any time soon because of this.” She sighed when she turned and saw him proceed to lick all the icing off his hand. “You want a towel or something instead?”

Harry shook his head. “And waste all this fudge? Never,” he smirked. “Want some?” he asked holding his hand to her face. Emily gave him an unimpressed look fueling his smugness before gripping his wrist and licking from the base of his palm up to the end of his middle finger. Harry swore his heart stopped, he did not anticipate a reaction like that in the least. “Mmm, yum. I love fudge, so much. Good call,” she said with a wink. Harry just stared at her as she casually started cleaning her baking mess like nothing happened. “You’re dangerous,” he commented finding his voice again. “I dunno what you’re talking about,” she replied feigning innocence. He squinted at her with a pause before washing his hand, no way was he risking something like that again. *She seemed too confident doing that,* he thought. *I’ll bet Nash instigates that behavior a lot.*

“So, did you manage to make a list?” Emily asked after a brief silence. Harry paused letting the water run down his hands. “Yeah, I did.”

“Good,” Emily replied finishing wiping down the counter. Smiling she turned around. “Now, eat a feel good brownie, properly this time, and then we can go to bed. No more thinking today, sound good?” Harry nodded with a relieved smile. “Yes, very.” Emily stayed in the kitchen while Harry left to change, brownie in hand, and wandered around closing up for the night. When she made her way to the bedroom, she found him staring off into space sitting on one side of the bed. “Hey,” she said breaking his concentration. “I thought I said no more thinking?”

“Ah, right. Sorry, couldn’t help it I guess,” he said with a chuckle before settling into bed. Emily gave a sympathetic look and made her way to the other side. “Alright, tell me what’s on your mind,” she said sliding under the covers and settling in herself. He looked over making eye contact and his face softened almost immediately at her quiet concerned but attentive look. “Too much,” he says with a sigh. “But, I think mostly, I’m scared.”

“Why are you scared?” She asked scooting a bit closer to him. He sighed again turning on his side to face her. “I’m.... I’m afraid of being lost. I’m afraid to go to sleep because I don’t know if I’ll get the chance to manifest again. That never crossed my mind before today.” Emily sighed softly and gently place a hand on his cheek. “The stubborn and persistent Harry? You’re too assertive to ever disappear.” He chuckled sadly continuing to look at her, his mind calmed and he remembered how he felt the day his mind began to slip and she was there to assure him. “I’ll keep you safe,” she assured softly. “I know,” Harry replied.

“Hey, c’mere,” Emily said after a brief thoughtful pause and stretched out her arms. Harry looked at her quizzically but did as she asked. “What are....?”

“Nash sometimes has nightmares,” Emily explained pulling him close. “This never fails to keep him calm and get him back to sleep.” She wrapped her arms around him gently cradling his head close to her chest and rested her head on top his. Harry stiffened at the close proximity but soon relaxed feeling safe and wrapped his arms around her in return. It didn’t take long for him to drift off to sleep to the sound of her level heartbeat and Emily soon followed.
