#Worse than any movie jumpscare I swear

[starsomens]

Noah and his not so gamer girl imagine cause I'm bored and have a bunch of ideas to share with the world. hey Siri, play Video Games by Lana Del Rey.

you're not the type to spend free time playing video games. it's just not exactly your form of escapism, you prefer listening to music, dancing, watching movies and tv shows, cooking, even crying your heart out over tiktok videos with cute puppies, basically anything. but playing games? not really. and it's not because you suck at it, nah, absolutely not. or is it?

but Noah loves video games and sometimes you're in a mood to share his passion despite the lack of fast reaction, coordination or even gaming experience. it doesn't matter. more so, this is the only time being really bad at something benefits you.

this is his chance to be your knight in shining armour and he gladly takes the opportunty. he's gonna carry you the whole match/round/level/quest/whatever that is if you're struggling without making you feel useless. oh, you can't progress through that one hideous quidditch match in an old Harry Potter game? don't worry honey, he's gonna take care of that while you can sit beside him with you cup of hot chocolate and chill.

actually, this level is worse than he thought, so you sit there for half an hour watching him cursing the game, the broom, the whole existence of the world and it's the funniest thing ever. streamer Noah was and still is your favorite era of his and now you have an exclusive access to it irl.

remember Among Us? this may be the only game you're good at. not just good - excellent, you're a pro mind gamer. whenever you get the imposter role you make sure to either kill Noah first just to mess with him while he's screaming 'I knew it' down the hall or to keep him alive til the very end acting soooo very innocent that it blows his mind to find out it was you all along.

Noah, however, is still in his knight arc so he keeps you alive because he just can't do it to you. that makes him lose all the time because everone knows if you're still running around it's him not being able to kill you again. or when he's a crewmate and gets killed, his little ghost follows you everywhere you go as your little guardian angel. it's sweet but he could be a bit more helpful in his afterlife doing the tasks to help you win sooner though.

you have this love-hate relationship with horror games. you're intrigued and scared as fuck at the same time. Noah is not there to make it any easier for you. he loves to jumpscare you out of the sudden. he swears he's not gonna do it again and still proceeds to scare you one more time when you're fully relaxed and least expect it just to hear you screaming at the top of your lungs. once you got so scared you threw your controller across the room and broke it. he promised to stop doing this shit. of course he lied. this bish!

he's so unserious when you two boot up The Sims. his character never looks like him, he creates the ugliest mf with the weirdest clothing choices and insists to romance your character because who else? then, when you get to make your sim and spend like three hours on it, he patiently waits and says it's cute but not as beautiful as you are even if it's an actual virtual goddess on your screen. then you two sit there and plan how your sims are gonna live and somehow it always ends up with planning your actual real life together - the cabin, the dog, the kids and their names, all this lovely stuff.

ANON AGAIN???? Girl I had a long work day and this honestly helped me to unwind THANK YOU I NEED TO SEND YOU FOREHEAD KISSES. HOW DO I SEND SOME THROUGH THE SCREEN????

[beastwars-transformers]

@prussianmemes i’m greatly exaggerating because this was more awkward than explosive but I went to a local con for my birthday last year and I wore the megop bag as a crossbody purse and the Soundwave bag as a backpack. Now this con was geared more towards anime so I expected nobody to really care but I wanted to wear them anyways.

While browsing a little Lolita fashion shop in the dealer’s hall, I hear someone shout “is that the decepticon logo?!” (The yaoi bag has one alongside an Autobot pin) so my ears perk up in hopes of a fellow fan. First warning sign: it’s a guy in a suit.

We made our greetings and one alarm bell goes off for me: the only TF related stuff I had watched by then was TFP and Bayformers. Maybe a few episodes of G1. This guy has seen. ALL OF THEM. So now I’m stuck with a fanboy because I’m separated from my friends and I have no idea what to say because I’m way out of my league.

What follows is snippets of conversation I remember for being even more embarrassing. More so for me being stuck in this and having nothing to add than him:

Me: (fuck the yaoi bag is so stupid uhhhh) hey i also have my soundwave ita check it out! *turns around*

Him: cool buuuuuut I wish Balster got more attention he’s way cooler than Soundwave :/

Me: *has only seen blaster on a merch page once* oh um. Sure hehe.

———

Him: do you have any obscure favorite character in the series?

Me: uhh I like Windblade! She’s really cool I hope she shows up more

Him: yeah but she’s so obviously the fan favorite and they make her like win like all the time like how in Cyberverse she was kicking ass while Optimus was struggling it doesn’t make any sense. It’s really dumb.

Me : (oh fucking no) well women should. Always win haha *said in between the ongoing rant*

———

Me: (oh wait if I mention that I’m a bayverse defender he’ll get annoyed and this will finally end!!!) oh uh well. You should know that I like the Bayformers movies hehe *points to my commission button*

Him: oh my god I loved the Bayverse movies too! Especially since…*this keeps going and I just made it worse for myself.*

———

Somehow the conversation started to talk about how distraught children were when Optimus died in the ‘87 movie

Me: it’s kinda funny cuz when I was 7 and watching ROTF I wasn’t upset at all when Optimus was brutally killed by Megatron haha

Him: well that’s because modern media has a lot more death than media in the 80s people back then didn’t expect their main characters to die so they were a lot more shocked than us today *this also keeps going. No matter how times I try to interject I was the same age as those kids in 1987 or the fact I only watched MLP and Disney back then, I am not heard.*

———

The last funny thing was that the conversation finally turned towards TFP, still my favorite so I can talk about it. If I could ever get an edge into this conversation in the first place.

Anyways. He started saying “it’s awesome how in TFP how crazy Megatron is” and it was very clear his next part was going to be “and how he doesn’t love anything” but I swear I saw his eyes flick down to the bright yellow yaoi button sitting on my chest and immediately course corrected and said “and how he’s so destructive and angry”

This was the only time I influenced the conversation probably.

Anyways. During this entire time I was trying to edge away and browse the Lolita shop we were in to escape. It doesn’t work because he keeps following me and keeps talking.

He decides to give me one last jumpscare by asking for my name. By this point I was just kind of frustrated with all of this and I wanted to find my friends again, but now I was straight up panicking. Paranoia sets in hard for me when this happens, when I feel like I’m being hit on. So I gave him my go-to fake name and prepared for the worst. He just told me his name, stuck out his hand. We shook hands and he left. I was free. I crashed at the concessions stand and texted my friends to find me so we could go to the artist alley. All while trying to slow my heart and assert the fact I am not in any danger. This is also stupid because paranoia in an anime con is stupid.

Let me make one thing clear. It’s pretty obvious this guy was somewhere on the spectrum. This was probably his favorite thing and just wanted someone to talk to about it. And I was the worst person to talk to about it because how I like TF was very different from how he liked TF. I should’ve been more forthright about wanting to leave. Maybe mention my friends and how I had to go find them or something. I’m not really mad at him at all. It’s just a funny experience looking back. I wouldn’t mind to see him again if we do ever cross paths. Maybe we could talk about beast wars.

But. That was a relatively small, local con. I’m going to a big one in March. Peter Freaking Cullen will be there. I’m afraid. Very afraid.

I wanna go to this con nearby and wear my ita stuff but idk if it would be safe to bring the robot yaoi bag since peter Cullen is there

a fucking AIRDRYER scared the fUcK out of me.

Embarrassing moments

warnings. just for shits n giggles, 14+ readers preferably, mentions of vomit, poop, choking, etc.

HINATA was extremely constipated and needed to use the bathroom quick. but there’s a long line to the mens bathroom (what’s the occasion anyway??) and he’s standing all the way at the back. poor hinata felt a fart coming so he just couldn’t... hold it in. mans SHARTED. shitted and farted at the same time. it stunk so bad that the guys in front of him said, “damn, you need the toilet more than me,” and let him cut in line.

USHIJIMA and tendou stopped to pet this dog during their walk. tendou’s conversing with the owner while toshi’s petting the dog. dog likes it, it’s all good. until... it got bored and decided that toshi’s butt smelled good. dog just wouldn’t stop sniffing his ass. “please, stop smelling me,” toshi says with desperation, which now catches the others’ attention. the owner has to pry their dog away from toshi’s ass cheeks, please. the awkward tension kinda dies down until tendou utters, “so, what’s your secret? what product are you using?”

YAMAGUCHI drank water in the middle of silent class reading. this boy started choking— and i mean choking on his water. you can hear his muffled coughs in the distance and when you turn around to look at him, his face is all red and his cheeks are puffy. none of his classmates say anything but you can practically feel second-hand embarrassment oozing around. the assistant teacher even has the audacity to say, “drink some water.”

KENMA’s calling this one his last try. he sticks his remaining coins into the slot and tries to get the brand new nintendo box thats in the machine. mf has been going at this for over twenty minutes now. his pouch is empty and there’s a crowd of kids waiting for him. no miracle happens in his last try (shit got stuck!!) so he has to move away only to watch in horror— as the kid after him manages to get it. you’re gonna have to hold kenma down before he hunts that kid with every bit of his soul.

DAICHI had a fat one coming in, that’s for sure. thought it was a free real estate just because everyone else in the camp seemed asleep. so he let that monster fart come out (even partly stuck out his thigh for better airway). whole team was awake in a matter of seconds. nishinoya’s jumped off his sleeping bag and asking everyone if they heard that “loud bang.” tanaka’s over here sniffing around because he knows that no one has got some kind of bomb that stinks.

SAKUSA’s not gonna admit to this one. but one time he opened a bathroom stall (it was unlocked) only to find that it was occupied. there are no words to accurately describe just how horried the sight was. sitting on the toilet was a man taking a shit, with his dick on full boner mode, staring back at sakusa. they only made eye contact for just 2 seconds but sakusa’s seen enough. he’s heard enough too, when said stranger asked him, “you wanna join me?”

ASAHI projectile vomited at the theaters. you should’ve known it was a bad idea to take him out to dinner before going to watch a scary movie. man had no courage to tell you he had an upset stomach nor tell you he’s not a fan of horror. it’s twenty minutes into the movie and he’s poking your arm— but you don’t notice because you’re too engrossed. another twenty minutes, and a jumpscare comes on. man beside you vomits like there’s no tomorrow. ya’ll spend the rest of the movie secretly trying to clean his throw-up.

TENDOU was watching anime in his dorm peacefully. until... the whole shiratorizawa team opened the door just in time for the show to switch up to an inappropriate scene. out of all the times they could’ve walked in, they really had to come when 2d clown man was moaning and fighting a kid? tendou scrambled to close his laptop but now he’s just staring back at his teammates; silent, except for the fact that his show is still playing and you can still hearing moaning in the background.

TSUKISHIMA turned his house upside down and still couldn’t find his glasses, nor his extra pair. he was about to leave bare eyed until his mom caught him and forced him to wear his sports glasses. yeah, the one with the whole strap and everything. mans looked like a fool coming to school with it on. people who didn’t know it was his sports glasses mistook it for swimming goggles. he’s so utterly humiliated now, he can’t even bite back when hinata or kageyama says something.

GOSHIKI... i don’t even know what to tell you. who let this kid go further into the lake by himself? it’s all fun and games for everyone until you hear an ear-defeaning shriek by your one and only goshiki. he’s yelling out, “help me! please! help!!” the lifeguards start kicking in and everyone’s trying to make way. is he drowning? is there something there? no for god’s sake. you find out he just made it 5 ft deep and happened to swim over a bunch of seaweed. never take him swimming again.

ATSUMU decided to check himself out using someone’s car window. he’s fixing his hair, picking at his teeth, and even checking to see if he has any boogers. all of a sudden the window rolls down and there’s a senior citizen staring back at him. “boy do you think my car is your mirror?” the man says in a gruffy voice. atsumu’s knees nearly buckle from how scary this man is and how embarrassed he is of all the four minutes he probably spent with this stranger.

SACHIRO’s job as a vet sometimes makes him do really questionable shit (from an outsider perspective). once he had to ejaculate someone’s dog in front of their owner. uh huh... jack them off, for the sole purpose of examining the dog’s semen. he’s never felt such a wave of regret wash through his body during that whole procedure. it didn’t help when the owner was looking at him mortified, nor the fact that it took such a long time.

OIKAWA does this thing were he shows up unexpectedly behind iwaizumi and slaps his ass. everytime he does it iwa always hits him back (but not the ass). today he learnt his lesson when he mistook a stranger for iwa and slapped the guys ass from the moon and back. when i tell you just how quick all the blood drained from oikawa’s body when the man turned around— you can hear a bag of chips fall at the other end of the aisle and it’s the iwa, who had to witness that whole ass-slap event.

ARAN is gonna knock the shit of the miya twins one day, he swears to god. they sent him a mysterious video during his morning walk, where he stopped at a busy street. it starts off quiet, so he goes to turn the volume up full blast. damn video suddenly started blaring ‘lick my pussy and my-’ please... he’s shaking. passerby’s are looking at him with distaste. aran’s now flushed from embarrassment and running towards the miya house. you can guess what happens next.

BOKUTO walked into the wrong house. spent a whole ten minutes rummaging around the kitchen because his friend said to “make yourself comfortable, i’ll be on my way.” little did this man know that there’s a whole family upstairs waiting for the cops to arrive because they think it’s a robbery. poor bokuto, dragged out of the house by some cops but had no idea what was going on. man was literally just vibing— thinking he was in his friends house.

OSAMU swore this size pants still fit him (hint: it doesn’t). he’s walking through the snack section of the store, lightly limping because damn his dick can’t breath. his truth is tested when he goes to pick something off the lowest shelf and his pants literally go, ‘let er rip.’ fabric tore, and what’s worse is that he was wearing onigiri undies. osamu goes to check if there’s anyone else in the aisle and there is— a group of underclassmen girls from his high school.

KUROO tried to make his chemistry presentation more interesting by putting in jokes. he thought they were funny; kenma even huffed a breath. kuroo’s at his third joke by now and literally no one has laughed. not a single one. except for kuroo himself, who’s awkwardly laughing in a dead-silent room. man was embarrassed. other people are getting second-hand embarrassment by the way they avoided eye contact with him. he vented to kenma later only for kenma to say, “it wasn’t funny. it was just stupid.” poor kuroo.

SUNA accidentally connected his bluetooth to the bus. you know, the one that drives all of inarizaki to their games. wanna guess what the fuck he might’ve been listening to? it’s porn. he’s watching porn in broad daylight. suna doesn’t realize what the issue is until he goes to turn up the volume and notices that the sound is off. he take his airpods off and that’s when he hears pure moaning sounds blaring inside the bus. everyone’s laughing— except for kita and their coach who’s still outside. mf calls himself lucky for that.

Anon Request: hi, if its ok, could i please request hcs for what it's like watching a scary movie with kageyama, bokuto, and kuroo (separately) and they expect you to be scared but youre not? love your blog btw!

A/N: Hi, Anon! It’s more than okay! I hope you like it!

Characters: timeskip!Kageyama Tobio, Bokuto Koutarou, Kuroo Tetsurou

🥛I don't really think he's a person that can be scared easily like it really has to surprise him in order for him to actually jump when he gets scared

🥛He's actually scared you whenever he comes home late at night after staying late after practice, so he thought he could try and scare you with one of the scariest movies he could find

🥛You were a little bit skeptical about it but agreed to it anyway, and he decided to go the whole extra mile and make the room completely dark, the only light coming from the TV

🥛You lay your head on his shoulder as the movie starts, and his eyes constantly go from the screen to you, waiting to see your reaction

🥛But he hadn't seen this movie either, so the first jumpscare actually got him, but he played it off like he was shifting on the couch

🥛His eyebrows furrow slightly as he looks at you because he doesn't remember you jumping

🥛Another one comes, and this one scares him even worse than the first one, and he physically flinches, and that's when he realized you had barely moved

🥛And he can hear your chuckle over the dramatic music of the movie. "You scared?"

🥛He scoffs dismissively as he rolls his eyes. "No, I just wasn't expecting it."

🥛He can see the smirk you have on your face as you respond with an okay, your voice telling him that you don't believe him

🥛Another jumpscare comes, and he's surprised once again when you don't move but he does actually swearing when it comes

🥛He hears you laugh, but you don't call him out on it, and he feels his face heat up as he clears his throat

🥛"Well, that movie was a lot better than I thought," you say when the credits roll with a yawn, and you stand up as you stretch

🥛"I'm going to bed," you start, and his eyes widen slightly. "You're gonna stay up a little longer and watch some of your games, right?"

🥛You're about to walk away, but he grabs your wrist softly, pulling you into his lap as he grabs his tablet

🥛"Were you scared, Tobio?" you tease, and he doesn't look at you as he pulls up the film, his face red as he pulls you closer

🦉I feel like this man gets scared from Jack in the boxes 💀

🦉So scary movies probably wouldn't be his first idea, but his idea is to try to get you to scare you so that he can hold you

🦉Why he doesn't just say this, we'll never know

🦉So, he turns the lights off and puts on the movie having his arms figuratively open and waiting for you to curl into him

🦉He tries to downplay that he's actually scared out of his mind, but the movie starts off like any typical horror movie, with no jumpscares or little scares until about fifteen minutes in

🦉All that happens is some glass breaks and he's already jumping

🦉He chuckles with you when you laugh at him, saying that he wasn't expecting it, which is literally the whole point of horror movies lmao

🦉When the killer finally comes onto the screen, he nearly jumps off the couch, and you don't even move, your eyes engrossed in the movie

🦉You don't call it out on him, but his arms are getting tired of waiting

🦉He thought he picked a movie scary enough, but in the end, he ends up more scared than you

🦉And then he asks you if you can turn the lights on 💀

🦉So towards the end of the movie, he ends up being the one in your arms, practically on top of you as he hides his face in your neck, barely even looking at the movie anymore

🦉When it's over, and you're about to get up and leave, he's racing after you, wrapping his arms around your waist

🦉So, you have to trudge a 6'2" professional volleyball player to your shared bedroom, and he doesn't let go even after you've laid down

🦉Even the creaks of the house settling scare him, and he's got his head under the blanket, the only thing you can is the two-toned strands  of his hair

🦉And you offer that you watch cartoons until he can finally go to sleep

🧪So, you both decide that neither of you wanted to leave the house, so he decided to watch a movie

🧪You both hadn't been able to spend much time together because he had been so swamped with work

🧪You roll your eyes when he picks a scary movie, but you let him put it in anyway

🧪Basically has the same plan as Bokuto, wanting to be your knight in shining armor and comfort you when you get scared

🧪He's never really been easily scared, but he knows that he's gotten you a few times, and what's better than getting you to jump until you're in his arms?

🧪So, when the movie starts, he wraps an arm around your shoulders and waits for when you finally hop into his lap

🧪Except it doesn't come

🧪He's starting to fidget now, the movie making him a lot more scared than he thought, and you're barely reacting

🧪You haven't even moved from your spot, and the jumpscares are only getting more aggressive as the movie goes on

🧪He swears under his breath as he jumps slightly, and he tries to play it off with a sigh

🧪"Oh, that one got me," you say, and he looks at you like you're crazy because you didn't even react, your face keeping that same intuned expression

🧪He's a little hesitant to move once the movie's over, and you notice that he's become a lot jumpier

🧪You jump at him slightly which makes him recoil quickly, and he glares at you as you laugh until your stomach hurts

🧪He would leave the couch, but he's too scared to, so he turns his back to you on the couch, and you have to flop on top of you him and offer to watch his favorite TV show in order for him to talk to you again

🧪At the end of the night, he's laying on top of you as he watches the TV, your arms wrapped around him

🧪And you ended up being his knight in shining armor lmao

Pining!Mark

Pairing: Mark X Reader (gender neutral)

Genre: dark stormy fluff (my fave)

Author’s Note: I haven’t written kpop imagines in so long im sorry this is long overdue and probably bad aasdkasjdasd

The living room windows and blinds were shut, blocking out the dim lighting from the outside world as a storm brewed in the sky. Mark walked into the kitchen and poured a glass of water for himself until he heard the chiming of his doorbell which made his heart skip a beat knowing you were behind the door. He took a deep breath and opened the door to find you in comfy clothes. He had invited you over to spend to watch a movie together while his parents were out but they didn’t mind you coming over since you two had been friends since middle school.

“Hey,” you smiled as you stepped in to the familiar house, taking off your shoes.

“Hey, so I got the movie so prepare yourself,” he smirked a little as you followed him to the living room.

“Oh god what movie did you pick this time?” Youvraced yourself as you asked as you sat beside him, already grabbing a pillow to hold. Ye last time you came over for a movie, he for some reason picked the sonic movie claiming he wanted to watch it out of curiosity. It wasn’t bad since you got to spend time with him but you did wish he didn’t pick a movie for kids. It wasn’t the first time you came over to Mark’s to watch a movie but the thing was he never told you the movie until you came over. There was no turning back when you were already over so it was pretty much a gamble whenever you came over.

“The Conjuring,” he smirked as the tv turned on, already showing the creepy house on the menu screen. He knew horror movies weren’t your favorite but he hoped it would give the opportunity for him to make his move. He had been crushing on you since the beginning of high school and now that it was the last year, it had been seven years of you two being best friends, he wanted to be something more than a friend.

Whenever you were around, you made it feel like he was always sitting on the edge of his seat, not knowing what to expect by what you would say or do. The way you smiled at him and everyone else around the room, having the power to immediately brighten it wherever you went. How you were able to click with any teacher and help others who needed it in class but also kept to yourself and did what you needed to do as a student. He couldn’t help but admit the envy he get when another friend of yours who wasn’t as close as he was to you, Renjun, asked you to go to homecoming with him. He had beaten Mark to his own plans and asked your friend instead so you could all go as a group.

You bit your lip having seen the trailer a few times for this movie when it came out a couple years ago. You were quick to turn down the volume and turn your phone screen upside down until the trailer ended, though you did want to watch a horror movie. “I honestly might die, wow you want me dead, Mark.”

He laughed at you. “It won’t be that bad... I think. Plus, I can protect you.” He said boldly, feeling heat ride to his face and ears.

“My hero, a tall lanky noodle guy,” you laughed back at him. This was one of your jokes you always made to him calling him a lanky noodle which began toward the end of middle school as Mark grew into his features and grew taller. You couldn’t ignore the attraction you felt for him either but you were afraid of losing him after being together for years so you kept your feelings to yourself, even suppressing them to the point where you told yourself you didn’t like him anymore.

The movie began and then the realization hit you when the sound was suddenly all around you. Mark’s living room was practically a movie theater with the surround sound speakers, making you even more immersed into the movie.

As the movie played and gradually began getting creepier and creepier, you draped one of the blankets over your legs and hugged the pillow you grabbed earlier with your knees up to use as a possible shield.

Mark snuck a few glances to you every now and then feeling a smile tugging on his lips as he saw your bundled up form with your little wall from the movie.

For you, the worst part of the movie was when there was little to no sound at all, making you brace yourself and tense your body up for a jumpscare. It was during those moments did you finally hear the rain and thunder as it poured outside, making the perfect ambiance to watch a horror movie.

Mark’s glances slowly stopped as he began to focus on the actual movie itself, being drawn in by the plot and suspense that seemed to grow stronger and stronger as it played. He was suddenly pulled out until he felt a poke on his hand that rested on the top of the couch. His eyes met yours, surprised that he didn’t even notice you with his head wrapped up into the movie.  Could I sit beside you?” You asked adorably, making him really want to confess his feelings for you but he knew it wasn’t the time.

“Yeah,” he nodded. You took the space to his side and leaned against him. He sat leaned against the arm of the couch on his left with his left knee up in the air, with the other leg folded down on the couch. He could swear you were able to hear how loud his heart was beating with you so close to him, cuddled against him. But you could swear he heard the same thing now that you could feel his body heat seeping through your shirt into your back.

As the movie continued and things for worse for the characters, you began to shield your eyes more often, holding up the pillow. You flinched whenever a loud sound or jumpscare happened, making mark poke his fun and tease you until it was your turn where mark let out a loud gasp, making the two of you laugh together. Never in your life did you think you would laugh during a horror movie but of course you would be with Mark. He never failed to make you smile or laugh.

With the movie near the end, Mark ordered a pizza so it would be close by roughly around the time the movie ended.

By the time the movie ended and the credits played with the eerie music in the back, you leaned your head back onto his arm with your hood up. “Wow. That was really intense.” You looked over to him as he just looked at you with his dark orbs. Low rumbles began to sound through the house cause of the storm outside with the rain bouncing off the roof of the house. There was something about this moment that he couldn’t put his finger on and his body moved without realizing it.

His lips were on yours as his hand cupped your face. You were frozen at first until your mind clicked into reality of what was happening and then you moved your lips against his. You turned your head more and you grasped the fabric of his shirt until the two of you pulled away.

With your faces still close to one another, you could feel each other’s breaths. He brushed a strand of hair behind, taking in the curves of his your lips looked in the dark room.

“You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to do that,” he sighed, breaking into a smile, cupping your face once again.

“Let’s do it again, then,” you agreed as he leaned closer to you once again, moving his lips against yours. He leaned closer and closer, letting the feelings he felt for you take over his body. You laid on your back on the couch with his arm beside your head holding him up and his knee between your legs. You wrapped your arms around his neck as the other went under your hoodie, feeling your skin.

The rain continued to fall from the heavy clouds as the two of you laid together in his living room, letting your mutual feelings finally be expressed to one another. The movie and pizza was a distance thought now that you two finally had each other after pining for years.

Late Night Confessions

Pairing: Bakugo x Reader

Word Count: 2k+

Warnings: swearing?

A/N: Just some good ole Bakugo fluff. This could’ve been so much longer because I just kept writing but I eventually gave myself a stopping point.

Living in the UA dorms wasn’t all that bad. Sure Mineta living here was kind of a pain in the ass, but you could manage as long as he kept to himself. Your favorite thing out of this whole living situation was the fact that it was constant sleepovers with the girls. You’re not the most girly, you’ll be the first to admit that, and at first you put up a fight about it. You just wanted to stay in your dorm and binge watch your favorite shows while eating your weight in junk food and procrastinating doing your homework. However, after the first few “sleepovers” that Mina dragged you to and forced you to enjoy, you had begun to go willingly. They were typically the same thing every Friday; junk food, face masks, gossip, games, and movies. The only things that really changed were the movies you watched and the games you played. Sometimes you watched romcoms, other times you watched straight romance or comedy. It really depended on who chose the movies. Very rarely were you and Jiro allowed to pick the movies, seeing as how you both picked horror movies. Although occasionally Mina would surprise you and pick a horror movie that wasn’t too scary for everyone else.

Oftentimes the guys tried to join in on the party, and more often than not you guys would reject them on the spot, but once in a while if you all were okay with it you would allow the guys to join in on watching the movies and maybe one or two games.

A few weeks ago, when you guys were just sitting down and talking after doing face masks, you had accidentally let it slip that you thought Bakugo was kind of cute. Boy was that a mistake because all you go after that was a ton of questions from half the girls, while the other half were hatching a plan to get you guys together. Being apart of the “Bakusquad” meant that you and Bakugo spent quite a bit of time together. Mina had claimed that Bakugo had liked you too because he never gave you a mean nickname most of the time opting to call you princess instead, in Mina terms that means he obviously likes you.

Mina was your best friend, but you often spend your days with the angry male and his red haired companion. You simply had more in common with them than Mina, she always wanted to go to the mall and talk about boys and that just wasn’t your style, but at the end of the day she was still your best friend.

Arriving in the common room where you held your weekly “parties” you saw all of class 1-A. Confused you walked over to Mina and sat down by her on the couch. The only people not in the common room at the moment were Kiri, Bakugo, and Mineta. Mineta was banned from the sleepovers after being too much of a perv during some of the games. Kiri and Bakugo would probably be down in a minute, Kiri was probably in the process of convincing Bakugo to join in on the festivities.

Turning to Mina you began to speak, “Was this one of the weeks that the guys were joining? I can’t remember.”

“No it’s not, this was kind of an impromptu deal. It was just decided this morning that the guys could join.” She smiled.

“Oh okay, that’s fine. Just thought I was losing my mind for a bit. Are we starting it soon?” You laughed in response.

“Yeah, right now we’re waiting for Kiri and Bakugo and then we’re going to start the movies.” She finished talking and turned away from you to talk to Hagakure. You turned to talk to Jiro while you waited for the two boys who seemed attached at the hip. As you waited you thought back to your relationship with Bakugo and smiled to yourself as you recalled all the times you hung out. Having a crush on the person you hangout with a lot only meant that it would either keep growing or disappear and honestly you weren’t sure which one you wanted. On one hand it went away and no awkward confessions and eventual rejections happened. On the other hand the feelings grow and maybe just maybe the person of your affection likes you back. Although you don’t think Bakugo would date anyone. He’s constantly talking about being the number one hero and you don’t think he’ll make room to date when trying to achieve his goals.

While you were thinking over your predicament you didn’t notice a smiling Kirishima walk in with a grumbling Bakugo trailing behind. You also didn’t notice him tell Mina to get up while he took her spot. You only noticed when Mina announced from her new spot on the floor that they would be starting the first movie.

Looking over at the blond next to you, you smiled warmly at him and gave a soft greeting. He gave a gruff greeting in return before you turned to face the rest of the group, he was silently grateful that you didn’t notice that his cheeks had turned slightly pink. Focusing in on the conversation you heard some of the people complaining about the movie that Mina had chosen. Looking at the screen you saw “The Ring” ready to be played. You silently cheered in your head that Mina had chosen a movie you had liked.

About halfway through the movie most of the class were either hiding or just scared. You had noticed a few of the people in your class glancing at you and silently whining and complaining to themselves. It was usually after a jumpscare had happened to themselves. You couldn’t figure out why they had been acting like that though. Either way you enjoyed yourself and the movie. After the movie had ended Mina and several others had turned to you.

“Were you not scared at all?” Mina had nearly screamed at you.

You were a bit confused as you responded, “No? You know I like horror movies, and that actually happened to be one of my favorites. Why?”

“I can’t believe we forgot she’s a horror freak! Of course the plan wouldn’t work!” Ochako had whined out while nearly slamming her head on the coffee table in front of her.

“What plan guys?” Your question fell on deaf ears as they started talking about a “Plan B”. You looked at Bakugo and silently asked if he knew what was happening but he shrugged his shoulders in return.

After a quick minute of what you would describe as scheming and plotting Mina finally announced that you guys would be playing Seven Minutes in Heaven and that they had come to the decision that you and Bakugo would be going first. Once Bakugo had finished yelling at the group and had calmed down you two were promptly shoved into a closet. As Mina and Denki declared the start of your seven minutes.

“This is a dumb fucking game and I don’t see the point of it.” Bakugo grumbled sitting down on the floor.

“Oh come on it can’t be that bad. It could be worse.” You softly laughed sitting down across from him.

“It’s just sitting down in a tiny closed space doing nothing while everyone else hopes you fucking hook up.” He said back.

“Hey, at least this small room can comfortably fit both of us,” You gently nudged his foot with yours, “so what do you want to talk about, assuming that we’re not going to ‘hook up’ as you put it.”

He mumbled a response you couldn’t hear and he was glad the small room was dark so you couldn’t see how red his face had gotten from your suggested comment, “I don’t fucking care what we talk about, we’re stuck in here for about four more minutes before they open the doors again.”

You rested your head in the palm of your hand as you thought for a minute, “What do you wanna do tomorrow? I’m assuming you, Kirishima and I are all hanging out tomorrow. Want to go to the arcade? Or we could go for a hike, we could do both.” You suggested.

“I don’t really care, we went to the arcade last week why don’t we go hiking.”

“That was contradictory, you said you didn’t care what we did but gave an opinion on it anyway. If I didn’t know any better I’d say you do care.” You laughed while batting at his knee.

“Tch whatever. Think what you want, and stop hitting my damn knee.” He raised his voice slightly at the end.

“Hmm okay, have it your way I’ll leave it alone.” As you finished your sentence the door you had been sitting against opened up causing you to fall back and look up at the culprit. Mina stood smiling widely down at you as she asked what happened.

“Nothing Mi, we just talked the whole time. Really what were you expecting to happen.” You said standing up rubbing the back of your head where it made contact with the floor.

“Awww you guys are no fun, I was hoping for some juicy details.” She whined running away back to the rest of the group.

Bakugo walked out of the closet to you and asked how your head was, you had said it hurt a bit so now he was leading the way to the kitchen so you could put some ice on it. As he got the ice ready you took a seat on top of the counter waiting. “They’re acting weird tonight don’t ya think?” You asked.

“That’s not unusual if you ask me, they’re always fuckin weird.” He responded as he handed you the ice pack and leaned on the counter next to you, “But you’re right, they are acting stranger than usual.”

“Awe is the all great and powerful Bakugo Katsuki agreeing with me?” You asked, putting the ice pack to your head. “I’m flattered, really, I truly am.”

“Shut up and focus on icing your head, I think you have a concussion because you’re acting crazy.” He mumbled.

Humming you leaned back and thought for a moment about how Mina and the others had been acting. Ever since you had more or less confessed your feelings for the angry Pomeranian, Mina had been trying more and more to get you and Bakugo alone. While you applaud her for trying to be a good wing-woman, you can’t help but be upset at the same time. You don’t want to force anything on Bakugo, and you weren’t even sure if you wanted to confess to him. If you did decide to confess you would prefer it be on your own terms and in your own time. Not a rushed confession because he started to get suspicious of Mina’s antics.

“Hey! Princess, you listening to me?” Coming back from your thoughts you look at Bakugo who seemed to be trying to get your attention.

“Hmm? I’m sorry, I spaced out for a bit.” You apologized.

“It’s fine, I was just wondering how your head was.” He said looking anywhere but you it seemed.

“Oh, yeah it feels better, thank you for caring Bakugo.” He grumbled a whatever and took the ice pack, putting it back in the freezer and leading you out of the kitchen and back to the group. They teased you a bit about what you were doing and why you took so long, but you brushed it off and sat down in your original seats. The rest of the night consisted of random games and conversations before you all returned to your rooms.

You couldn’t go to bed when you got back to your room because you were too busy thinking about Bakugo and the events that perspired tonight. Sighing, you got up from your bed and slowly made your way to Bakugo’s room. You stood outside his room for about five minutes debating on whether or not this was something you actually wanted to do. Eventually you settled on going back to your room and declaring yourself a chicken. Before you could leave the universe decided to pull a prank on you because the door opened right as you decided to leave.

“Eh? What are you doing just standing outside my door?” Bakugo asked confused as to why you seemed to be admiring his door.

“What? Oh I was just. Well you know. I couldn’t. Ugh.” You couldn’t seem to get out the right words.

“Are you just going to stand there and not make sense or are you going to actually say something.” He inquired, trying to keep his voice down so as to not wake his neighboring classmates.

Sighing you decided to just come clean, “I know why Mina and everyone were acting weird tonight. I was just going to ignore it and hopefully not say anything, but I couldn’t sleep because I know they’re just going to keep trying until I confess or do something. I guess what I’m trying to say is I like you. Like a lot. I know you’re focused on being the number one hero so you probably don;t have time for that sort of thing and this was all just stupid so I’ll just go and leave you alone.” You turned to walk away and go back to your dorm and wallow in self pity, but Bakugo grabbed your wrist to stop you from leaving.

“You really are an idiot aren’t you?” You were ready to object but also cry because you were pretty sure you were getting rejected, but then he continued his sentence, “I like you too, you’re just too dense to see that. Come on, come into my room.”

You obliged albeit a bit confused, “I think you’re one of the few people to insult someone in a confession, I mean who does that.”

“Would you shut up and just listen. Tomorrow let’s go on a date, just you and me, we can go hiking like we were planning we just won’t bring shitty hair.” He suggested as he got comfortable on his bed. “Are you going to lay down or what? It’s not like it’s the first time you’ve slept in my room.”

That was true, most nights when you couldn’t sleep you came to Bakugo’s room for comfort and often fell asleep in his bed. Making your way to his bed and laying down next to him you smiled warmly, “I’m really glad this turned out this way, I was about to go back to my room and eat my weight in chocolate.”

“That’s really unhealthy, you shouldn’t eat all that junk food, honestly y/n.” He grumbled as he pulled you closer so your head was resting on his chest. Smiling you fell asleep fully content with how this night turned out. You’d have to be sure to tell Mina in the morning.

Who named you? Both of my parents did. My dad came up with my first name, my mom with the second. On edge about anything at the moment? On edge is irritable right? I hate how hot it is rn, and it’s literally almost 11 PM. Pretty sure I’ll be giving myself a second shower for today, ugh. The thing that last shocked you? My mom unknowingly watched a jumpscare video earlier and since she likes keeping her phone’s volume at a high level, I got to hear the demonic scream that came with the jumpscare -______- My entire family jumped but I was the only one who started to tear up hahahaha Ever have dreams that come true later on? Like, sleeping dreams? I guess, but they’ve all been deja vu stuff. Like a random thing will take place in the present and I’ll just suddenly remember that I saw it happening in a dream before, if that counts. Is it sometimes hard for you to accept what people are saying as the truth? I guess, especially when I’ve become used to a different side for much longer. For instance I really loved my grandpa and always saw him as this gentle giant who liked telling me trivia, so it took me a while to accept that he had his issues with alcohol and that he’d turn into a different person whenever he consumed it.

Who is worse: The liar or the hypocrite? Hypocrites are annoying but when it comes down to it we all have our hypocritical tendencies, honestly. I’ll go with liars. Is your mom your number one fan? No, she’s very passive about my successes and will always make it a point to look like she’s not interested enough about what I dabble in. The one time she looked genuinely supportive and excited for me was when I passed UP, and that was because that was her dream for me. Do you sing in front of people? Neverrrrrr. I only do that when I’m drunk enough at a club and my voice is guaranteed to be drowned out.

Is there a scent that makes you feel nostalgic? Sure, there’s the smell of nature in my old school, my grandparents’ cabinet which has given off this musty smell for as long as I can remember, and the scent of my dad’s luggage whenever he arrives back to the country. Last time someone had a bad opinion of you? The last time I was around to hear it was last week when my mom hurled insults at me and my siblings, but I’m sure others have spoken badly about me behind my back. Was it for the wrong reason? Yes. Would you rather ask or be asked? Ask/be asked what? Who are you the most uncomfortable around? My mooooom. I get very wince-y when I’m alone with her...I feel like a barrage of insults or criticisms is gonna be thrown at me any second.  Are your parents overprotective? They were I was never allowed to join in the Friendster craze because my parents took the 16-year-old requirement seriously, I didn’t have my first sleepover until I was 16, I wasn’t allowed to go to anyone’s house but Katreen as a kid, among other limitations I had to live with. But idk, for some reason something must have flipped in their heads and I was suddenly allowed to do a bunch of stuff when I turned 16. Is there a part of you that you've tried to bury? Yuh, my entire childhood. A recent creation that you're proud of? Hdjshjsjdh I made onion rings a couple of weeks ago and they turned out yummy and I was really proud of it. It was also the first time I made any kind of food from scratch so I was ecstatic when I took my first bite and discovered that it wasn’t bad at all. Who's your favorite comedian? Not really into comedians...I’ll go with Grace Helbig, even though I primarily know her for her YouTube stuff. What makes you squeamish? Injections. What do you like in your omlettes? Everything that’s available. When I’m having a breakfast buffet at hotels I just tell the chef to just put in every ingredient they have at the omelette station. Who has your heart? My two dogs and my girlfriend. Do you have any online friends that you wanna keep, but not meet? Continued from last night because I was tired enough to pass out in the middle of this survey, apparently. Not really. I always find myself wanting to meet online friends. The worst I’ve felt is not wanting to meet an online friend again after I’ve met them, because irl them turned out to be a big dickhead. What’s something you want that has not changed as time has passed? To somehow get into the pro wrestling industry in any kind of capacity. Are you gullible? Sometimes. Though an exception to this fact is that I can somehow always sniff out whenever a parent or a friend has a surprise for me, so I’m rarely 100% taken aback by them. Does it take a lot for the opposite sex to impress you? I’m easy to impress in general. Are there seriously subliminal messages within Disney movies? I don’t care. I watch Disney movies to feel like a kid, man. I ain’t got time to look for symbols that flash on the screen for 0.0000001 seconds. Should cloning ever be allowed to happen? I don’t know enough about biotechnology to hold an opinion that I’m confident with, honestly. Your last injury was what? I have a bit of a gash from when I hit my right hip on the corner of our dining table. I’m pretty sure I also recorded this as my last injury not too long ago, and I swear this is a new gash LMFAOOOOO fuck I’m so clumsy. Are all of your friends going to be lifelong? I don’t wanna set anything in stone. I said my high school friends were gonna be forever, and I couldn’t be any more wrong about it. How long can you stand hanging upside down? :P I can’t even get into that position in the first place, lol. Should pot be legalized? I don’t know. I guess. I haven’t heard any instance where it seriously harmed a person. Weed is generally a taboo subject where I live – and the only thing I know about it is that it’s dealt by the richer, more boujee college kids lmfao – and a consequence of that is that I hardly know anything about it. Is" Family Guy" too random? Random wouldn’t be the first word I’d use for it? but yeah it can be, sometimes. I do remember finding some scenes a little bizarre. Do you have any friends that you love but they annoy you a lot? Yeah this was definitely me with Katreen in high school. In college, the only person I can think of is Mils; sometimes Reiven. Who would you live with if you got kicked out tomorrow? My grandma. I’d move back to our old home, basically. The most repulsive tactic the opposite sex uses? Obviously I wanna avoid generalizing but I’ve encountered so many screenshots of dudes throwing a fit when someone turns them down, or gets surprised that politeness ≠ flirting. It’s so annoying but at the same time I can’t get enough of those screenshots too lol. Are you impatient with really shy people? No, I’m one myself. I have a lot more patience with quiet people than with extroverts. What's gonna happen in year 2012? The year didn’t end, I got into One Direction, I got braces, I met my best friend, and life started to slowly look up from there. Do people consider you "easy to read"? You’ll have to ask people. What's your least favorite curse word? Cunt. Eugh, I winced just typing that out haha. What's a pet your parents never let you have when you were a kid? :( I was never that desperate for a pet. We had enough stray cats that hung out around our house because my grandma would always give them leftovers. Have any websites that have become a habit? Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, YouTube. Who do you wish you could change, if anyone? My mom, but it’s too late for that now. Has your house ever been broken into? Never. That’s a fear of mine, too. Do you always give your honest opinion when people ask for it? I guess. I’ve stopped being blunt, but I’ll always add a bit of truth into what I say.

And they say dreaming is free (but I wouldn’t care what it cost me)

Summary: The Seance, the Horror and the Boy walk into a movie theatre.

Sounds like the start of a joke.

Set after they've fixed everything

Read here on AO3

 “You know what we never do? Bonding activities!” Klaus says, dangling halfway off the couch, fluffy hair nearly brushing the floor. Ben pats him absentmindedly, and attempts to rearrange himself and his book.

           “That’s because we have no reference for normal family activities, Klaus.” Ben rests the back of his book on Klaus’ leg. If Klaus is going to sprawl his legs over his lap, Ben damn well has the right to use Klaus’ leg as a bookrest. Klaus doesn’t seem to mind either way.

           “Do you think we should go for therapy?” Klaus muses. Five is flickering around somewhere behind them, but doesn’t seem to be paying them any attention.  Ben really wonders whether anyone would think badly if they saw an apparently thirteen-year-old drinking margaritas. Probably. Then again, Klaus was wearing a huge bright purple feather boa and tight lace up pants and people thought badly of him already. And Diego wore a black turtleneck and carried knives around.

           “We could spend Dearest Daddy’s money on it. But we’ll traumatise the therapist so there’s that. Wooh! Don’t you love being trained to kill from a young age  when you can see the dead people you just killed ?”

           Klaus had a harsh laugh at the end, and Ben strokes his leg soothingly. Ben still had nightmares about the monsters piercing through soft flesh and blood. He couldn’t imagine dealing with them in the day as well.

           They were going to do better. Ben was alive and everything… well it might not be okay but they were working towards it.

           “So bonding activities huh? When I was in rehab, there was this man who wouldn’t stop going on about how his girlfriend brought him to the movies and poisoned him there. His ex? I mean she did kill him. Does he count as a widow? Widower? But he’s not the one left behind; he’s the one who died…”

           Klaus was swaying back and forth rhythmically. Ben casually lifts the edges of his skirt and feather boa onto his lap so they didn’t brush the floor too much. Klaus would be sad if they got caught on something and tore. He was fond of that feather boa.

           “There’s a new horror movie coming out. Something about a haunted house?” Ben suggests, leaning back against the sofa to brace himself. Klaus swings himself upright, humming in curiosity, bright yellow tank top, a stark contrast against the dark couch.

           “Can’t be worse than our lives.” He snorts.

           “Five, you want to come?” Ben calls out as an irritated Five smacks the coffee pot behind them. Five teleports in front of the sofa to grab a pen from the table, and then back again.

           “If that’s what it takes for me to get some goddamn decent fucking coffee, yeah.”

           Klaus spreads his hands, beaming at Five and attempting to hug him. Five’s disdain is being broadcast so loudly as he teleports away that Ben’s surprised the whole neighbourhood can’t hear it.

           Ben shoves Klaus’ legs off him and Klaus rolls off, standing up to grab his wallet.

           What a relief. Klaus using money on movie tickets instead of drugs. Klaus as an  artist  earning an actual salary through actual, serious legal means. Ben will never stop being amazed at the changes wrought by  actually taking care of each other.

---

           By the time Ben, Klaus and Five get Five’s coffee, popcorn and the movie tickets in that order, the movie is about to start. The theatre darkens and the smell of stale popcorn is seeping from the theatre seats. Ben sits down gingerly as Five just straight teleports to his seat.

           Ben briefly wonders what the people around them think of them. Klaus has commented that the all black look does look good on him, and despite Allison’s cajoling that he’s no longer dead, he can get a brighter wardrobe, Ben  likes  his hoodie. Meanwhile, Klaus himself is still dressed in bright purple and yellow with a leather skirt which Ben swears belonged to Allison at some point. Five’s still dressed in a blazer and looks thirteen.

           “Guys, look, it’s the Academy.” Klaus whispers at Ben, as the movie starts to play. Ben snorts. The haunted house does look like their home. If slightly less posh. And slightly more fake.  

           The first jumpscare happens and there’s shrieking in the theatre and people hiding their eyes. Meanwhile, Five just looks unimpressed.

           “Oh come on, there’s more blood than that if your throat gets torn out!”

           “That’ss not even what people whose throats have actually been torn out look like.”

           Ben begins to wonder if bringing Five ‘Time Travelling Assassin’ Hargreeves and Klaus ‘I See Dead People’ Hargreeves to a horror movie was such a great idea.

           “That’s not what a person getting stabbed sounds like!”

           …yeah, maybe it wasn’t.

           The comments continue throughout the film as Klaus and Five mock the special effects and gratuitous gore. There’s a part where the protagonist and his friends are supposed to be running through a graveyard with malicious ghosts appearing that makes Klaus outright laugh.

           “Please, the ghost hasn’t even started throwing its decapitated head at you. That blood spatter doesn’t even look realistic. That’s not what someone getting speared through the stomach looks like! They’re not even yelling your name yet, just ignore the groaning!”

           Ben has to laugh at that last comment because, yeah seriously, he would know. That’s what tips Ben over the edge and makes him start joining into Klaus and Five’s running commentary on all the inaccuracies of the film. Klaus’s feather boa smacks into his arm as Ben leans over to comment on the piano playing of an alleged ghost and Klaus makes a gesture at the screen.

           Soon, the movie ends and the trailers play. They’re still complaining about the movie when it ends. Klaus swings his jacket onto his shoulders, tossing the end of his boa that had come undone over a shoulder carelessly as he sputters about the depiction of are those supposed to be scary ghosts? Is that supposed to be a graveyard? Five’s blazer is on his arm as he nearly smacks into a very scared passerby with his coffee cup as he responds to Klaus with angrily comments on ‘ghosts shooting’ scene.

           The people around them are giving them a very wide berth and Ben’s hands are tucked in his hoodie as he watches a lady who he was pretty sure was sitting two rows in front of them cross the street to avoid Klaus and Five.

           Overall, Ben would rule this outing a success. Family bonding for the win.

Scary movies

The Bellas all watch a horror movie together. Chloe gets scared, but Beca will be there to both tease and protect her. 

Friday was bonding night. Chloe was, of course, the one who had come up with it and the others had immediately followed. No one wanted to argue with an excited and bubbly Chloe, knowing she’d always get what she wanted. Plus they all had to admit that bonding might really be a good idea. Eventually those bonding nights had turned into movie nights, which was technically still a good way to bond, but made Beca hate it even more.

She still wasn’t a fan of movies, but it usually only took one puppy look from Chloe and she would give in, having to admit that there were definitely worse things than watching a movie with friends, especially considering Chloe always made sure to sit down right next to Beca which, at this point, didn’t really surprise any of the other Bellas anymore. They always made sure to keep their friendly distance between them though, not touching any more than the others did. Because that’s all they were, right? Friends?

The movie that particular Friday had been chosen by Lily and was therefore a horror movie. And for once Beca was actually relatively excited because that meant she at least didn’t have to sit through two hours of a sappy and unrealistic love story. The only thing that usually got her through those kind of movie were Chloe’s cute reactions. She loved seeing the redhead get all excited over little things that happened in the movie, or get all emotional when something sad happened. But in the end it was still boring. Not even Chloe could make those horrible movies a good experience.

And Chloe seemed to be excited about the choice of movie as well, but just twenty minutes later she was basically sitting on Beca’s lap. And Beca could swear she was even shivering a little. It was quite adorable.

“Are you okay?” She asked the redhead, amused. Chloe was so damn cute when she was trying to hide the fact that she was scared shitless.

“Y-yeah…suuure…” she mumbled and got some more distance between them again, trying to show just how okay she was. But the next jumpscare was just a few minutes away and by then she was holding onto Beca’s arm for dear life. And Beca would’ve been so mad if anyone else was digging their fingernails into her arm like this but she had to admit it was kind of cute when Chloe did it.

Beca let that uncommented but she could sense that the others were just as amused as she was. Especially when Chloe started shrieking and hiding behind Beca whenever something remotely scary happened.

“Hiding behind your girlfriend, huh, red?” Amy teased and the others quickly joined in. And usually one of the two would’ve at least rolled her eyes or stated that they’re just friends, but Beca was too busy laughing at the way Chloe was trying to peek over her shoulder just to shriek loudly again because, yes, the scary thing was still happening.

The Bellas shot each other knowing looks when Beca protectively wrapped her arm around Chloe.

“You know it’s just a movie, right?” She teased but Chloe simply pouted at her and snuggled closer.

She calmed down again as soon as the movie did, but stayed in Beca’s embrace, enjoying the way the brunette was stroking her arm tenderly, presumably to calm her down. And it worked.

She really didn’t anticipate the next jumpscare, which was probably the biggest one of the whole movie, and therefore got even more scared than she already would have anyways. And obviously Beca noticed. Everyone heard Chloe scream, but only she felt her wince in her arms and scrambling even closer.

So Beca simply tightened her grip around Chloe and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. “I’ve got you,” she whispered so the others couldn’t hear her and she sighed in relief when she saw a tiny smile on Chloe’s lips.

The rest of the movie was uneventful. Amy and some of the others kept teasing Chloe playfully until the very end, but by then she had relaxed again and could actually laugh about it all. They then continued their bonding night like they usually did. Some drinks, a board game, and some more drinks until they would all eventually retreat to their room to get some sleep. Sometimes their Friday nights straight up turned into a party but that was definitely not one of those Fridays.

Beca was already about to drift off to sleep when she heard a soft knock on her door and groaned. She was going to murder whoever was keeping her awake like this.

“What?” she mumbled sleepily and reluctantly opened her eyes. She then smiled softly when she saw Chloe poke her head into the room, biting her lower lip. She was suddenly not so angry anymore.

“Can I come in please...?” She asked in a little voice and Beca nodded, hoping Chloe could see her movements in the dark room.

She did, apparently. Because Beca could see her enter the room, close the door behind her and then felt her next to her on the bed just a few seconds later.

“What’s wrong, Chlo?” she hummed and pushed some of her blanket towards Chloe so they could share.

“Would you laugh at me if I told you I’m still scared because of the movie and can’t sleep because there might be an actual demon in my room…?”

Beca chuckled softly at that and wrapped her arms around Chloe. It wasn’t the first time they were sharing a bed, and while Chloe was usually the big spoon, Beca knew that she needed this now. And she hated hugs, she really did. But protecting Chloe felt nice.

“What makes you so sure the demons won’t be following you here?” She hummed softly as Chloe sighed contently and snuggled closer, burying her face in the crook of Beca’s neck.

“You’ll protect me, right?” She mumbled against Beca’s skin, her breath tickling her neck in a way that made the brunette shiver.

“I sure will.”

so like. id post a real review of the bye bye man but none of you care. nor should you.

the bye bye man was just plain bad. it wasnt hilariously bad. it wasnt even cringe-ily bad. it was just plain bad.

if youre morbidly MORBIDLY curious i recommend you go see it ONLY on a nice saturday night when theres more likely to be more people watching it. those are the ONLY circumstances you should see the bye bye man under. because with any luck youll have an audience like ours where nobody took it seriously and you could all laugh about how bad it is together.

it’s not worth renting and its def not worth buying. not even for a small viewing with your friends. fifteen bucks is also a steep price to pay for a communal bonding experience, so allow me to recommend: not watching it at all. or tbh paying for a better movie and sneaking in to see it

its only any good with an audience that makes fun of it. and even then it was only good for about fifteen minutes.

in case youre morbidly curious but also dont want to LITERALLY waste your money; a review underneath:

first and foremost the bye bye man himself looks like lord palpatine and voldemort had a kid

mixed with that beauty and the beast ripoff with the guy and the tattoos

MIXED with ruvik from the evil within

now what IS it?

its a worse version of freddy krueger. nightmare on elm street had charm to it, yknow? it was kind of a comedy. it made fun of horror. freddy was an enjoyable character. there was also a story behind it, even if it took a few sequels to get to

spoilers oncoming, obviously

the bye bye man, seemingly, is an escapee from the teenagers prison part of fosters home for imaginary friends because the first and only time he was every mentioned coming up was when a kid blamed killing his entire family on “the bye bye man.”

the reason its a ripoff of freddy krueger, by the way, is because the bye bye man only exists as long as anybody knows his name. as long as someone remembers he exists he DOES exist. which makes it an obnoxious and probably lame metaphor about how we “give our thoughts power”

the film also neglects to tell what would happen if you said “bye-bye, man” to someone. we dont know if that would summon him

but basically what happens is someone learns his name and because LOL ITS SO RIDICULOUS LOL (the movie acknowledges this but acts poorly on it by not even making it interesting or a big deal) people spread it and tell others. but theres no reason hes named the bye bye man. theres no big fuck at the end where some deep hidden meaning (or even obvious meaning in that he makes you go bye bye) where it ALL MAKES SENSE AND GIVES U CHILLS

if they wanted it to be better, to prove how ridiculous it was we could “give power” to this idea and spread it because its silly they LITERALLY just should have gone with “peepee poopoo man” like honestly

but we get 0 backstory as to where he came from. not even like. “OOO EVIL INDIAN VOODOO LOL” like NOTHING WE DONT KNOW WHERE HE CAME FROM THEY DIDNT CARE THEY JUST WANTED TO THROW SOME SPOOKY AMBIANCE AND SOME JUMPSCARES TOGETHER AND MAKE SOME MONEY IT SUCKS SO MUCH

anyway

once you know the name you start hallucinating and all you can think about is the bye bye man and you end up coming into danger the longer it is until something bad happens.

HOWEVER

only one character dies because of this. she sees a car crash and a dying family and runs to save them (which is the same way the family of the person she was driving with died, which means it would have made more sense for HIM to see that and get worked up over it. not to mention she was canonically sensitive to spirits so just by being in close proximity to him itd make sense shed see their death scene which means we dont even know that the bye bye man caused that to happen. and shes the only case of the bye bye man “killing” anyone. just knowing his name torments people with intrusive thoughts and nightmares which could be explained by................................ mold or mental illness.)

so bc you know his name you get nightmares and nono thoughts and the only way to kill him is to kill everyone who knows about him so they cant spread his name. but somehow he always sticks around. BECAUSE SOME ASSHOLE WHO KNEW NOBODY COULD KNEW HIS NAME. CARVED THE BYE BYE MANS FUCKING NAME INTO A DRESSER FOR EVERYONE TO FUCKING FIND. IF HE KNEW NOBODY COULD KNOW HIS NAME. WHY DID HE PUT IT THERE? OR DID THE BYE BYE MAN PUT IT THERE? BUT CAN THE BYE BYE MAN STILL EXIST IF NOBODY KNOWS? CAN HE MANIPULATE THE PHYSICAL PLANE? if the bye bye mans name exists on paper but nobody knows it, by platos/socrates forms does he still exist in some capacity?

let me make a list of all the things the bye bye man HIMSELF has been shown to do DIRECTLY (there is no proof he even causes the nightmares)

fed his demon dog dead people

randomly appeared in the house

scratched up the bricks on the fence outside the house

poked the guy in the forehead (im not even joking. he doesnt do shit at the end. he just boops the guy on the head to the tune of the doorbell ringing and then the guy kills himself because its “too much” apparently)

the bye bye man did nothing wrong

the bye bye man LITERALLY DID NOTHING WRONG

HE DIDNT DO ANYTHING

HE JUST WANTED TO FEED HIS DOG. AND BY ALL CONCEPTS, U COULD JUST SEE THAT AS HIM BEING A DEATH GOD. THE REAPER. HIS DOG COMES AND EATS UR BODY AS A REPRESENTATION OF DECAY (since his dog is like. giant and skinless itself.)

so yeah the movie doesnt even prove that the bye bye man is doing anything actively malicious. maybe the bye bye man WANTS people to forget about him maybe he doesnt want people getting into his business

so.

-no backstory -harmless antagonist -boring jumpscares -unlikable characters (he has ONE intrusive thought his gf is cheating on him with his bff and “SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG HERE!!!!” and immediately starts grilling them, assuming they ARE having an affair) which brings me to: -barely anything happens and they start freaking out because somethings wrong (she zoned out and doodled in her notebook and he had a nightmare, and suddenly theyre super defensive about it) -a twist at the end that doesnt even ultimately matter -FUCKING OPENING FOR A SEQUEL LIKE PLEASE FUCK OFF -stupid name with a DECENT concept that was executed horribly because they didnt know wtf they were doing. the concept, btw, was only DECENT. and even if it had been a dumb metaphor about the power we give to ideas, maybe that should have been focused more heavily on than being a throwaway line ONCE during the beginning of the movie -annoying seance scene with nonbelievers and SUPER DUPER REAL PSYCHIC, WE SWEAR

it was just bad dont watch it

EDIT: also they did nothing with the fact that “ooh, you the audience thought it was silly but u all kno his name and told ppl and everyone is @ risk.... now U ALL NEED TO DIE!!!! MUAHAHALOLHAHA”
