#YES IT'S MY FIRST GIFSET AND IT'S MY PUPPY

[ravensmadreads]

Unhinged totally unasked for thots about Riding Pedro Boys

Authors Note: So this came from me chugging entirely too many energy drinks and then projectile vomiting in Taylors inbox. I'd like to warn you that: English isn't my first language, I have never written smut before, I'm not a real writer, and also I'm trash goblin levels of unhinged about this. That being said; Enjoy and uhh. Forgive me Fandom

JAVIER PEÑA

Javier Pena doesn't let you do it.

Don't @ me LISTEN! (YES I STARTED OFF WITH A CONTROVERSIAL THOT FUCKING BITE ME.)

That man does not have the time, or the patience, or the good sense (the sense is at the other end) to let you ride. He needs the control okay? And sometimes it's not even about the control ! It's the frustration. It piles and piles and piles until he snaps. He needs to do. He will bend you over and work his frustration away until he has had enough and you let him because he needs it. (And lets be real he makes it worth your while every single time)

BUT. When he finally fucking retires, and gets a ranch, and breaths air not tinged with the smells of death, cigarettes and guns for the first time in however many years, and maybe drinks some fucking water, he takes you out on a date. He fumbles through the entire thing, panics because he thinks he blew it, still manages to get you home, gets ridden for the first time in like 6 years, and can't walk straight for an entire day and stammers every time someone asks him why.

JAVIER GUTIERREZ

Javi G loves it. He loves watching you. Gets all puppy dog wide eyed (remember the pool scene face??? Thats it.) and you have to really focus because his look of straight up wonder and awe and bright eyed eagerness makes you want to cry. He's panting like he's running a marathon, running his big hands EVERYWHERE he can reach. He makes you feel worshipped and adored and so very very loved. Thanks you after. For being so amazing, and so wonderful to him, and thanks the universe that he found you. Cause he's sap. You definitely cry after.

JOEL MILLER

(Watch me be controversial again) Joel is fucking tired okay? He has old man bones and creaky joints and his back is achy. Patrol was agony, Jesse wouldn't shut up the entire time, and Tommy was giving him shit, and he has no energy to drill anyone into the mattress (as much as we all want him to). He's just plain tired. He likes you on top. Likes it slow (like a roast chicken on a sunday slow). Enjoys the gradual build up, likes to lean back, watch with half open eyes as you take your time. Wants to indulge in something beautiful at the end of the world, and that something is you. He makes sexy grunting noises, mutters a whole lot of praise ~and filth~ and just y'know. Savours it. 🫠🫠🫠 savours you. 🫠

DIETER BRAVO

Dieter is a maniac. (Leave him alone he has adhd!!) He can't still still for the life of him so you best believe he changes positions 6 times and the only way you're getting to ride is if you're also putting some weight elsewhere. To hold him down! You squeeze his neck once and he MELTS. INSTANTLY. Loses all sense. Starts babbling and whimpering and making extremely pathetic noises. Will definitely buck up and whine. PRAISES YOU. BEGGING. LOUD NOISES.

MAX PHILLIPS

Max is a heathen. He just likes watching you bounce. That's it. That's the post :p

MARCUS PIKE

Marcus P is a romantic. He will be doing the whole "lean forward and try to get kisses in between" while also "moaning and maintaining eye contact" and he's holding you so tight , squeezing your sides and also muttering declarations of love. About how he wants a life with you, and a family, and a home, and a future. How he's going to "make you so happy baby, I promise I will, I swear to you". Doesn't let you off for from on top of him for atleast a half hour after; kissing all over your face and rubbing your back and petting your hair "I meant all of it sweetheart. I want all of you." shsbzgwgsvsg ilovehimsomuch and I've only ever seen gifsets of this man what is wrong with me

MARCUS MORENO

Marcus M is A MENACE. He wears his stupid glasses, and has his stupid shirt off, while he does stupid taxes/meeting plans in bed. You keep throwing side glances and getting increasingly wound up and he just has this gentle smirk but he's mostly ignoring you. You sidle up to him and maybe start kissing his jaw, laying gentle pecks down his neck, and he's still fukcungh working "Baby. I need to finish this. I'm sorry, you need to wait." But that smirk is still there and it's driving you crazy and maybe you keep kissing until you reach his *coughs* and then you're working on getting him interested. You can still hear the fucking pen scratching though and so you go deeper, and he raises an eyebrow. "be good now honey" You're settling in his lap and he has you sitting there until he has finished his paperwork with you whimpering and trying not to squirm because you want to be good you really do and you know he'll make it so much better but he feels so good and when he's finally finally done you get to move but you're so wound up you can't pull yourself together enough to find a rhythm and you're nearly in tears and he has to grip your sides and murmur instructions in your ear and help you until you're satisfied and just when you think he's done, and about to flip you over, he adjusts his grip and starts moving from underneath you until you're crying and he's finished ~which doesnt happen until you've come 2 more times~

DAVE YORK

Dave. Oh my gosh Dave. Dave is a strict dom if ever there was one. With him it's a punishment. He'll tell you to hold off until he's done which is freaking impossible with how deep he gets, and how he likes to warm up his hands on your butt while you're trying desperately to hold onto that last thread of control. He is muttering absolute filth, holding your arms behind your back with one hand while the other is either laying smack after smack or rubbing you furiously all the while he's got the smuggest look. "Don't you dare baby. Be a good girl now. Listen and obey for once". But you can't because he's not fair and he knows it. And when you do finally fall apart he's clenching his teeth trying to hold back himself and his hands are holding you up as you gasp his name like it's the only word you know. He's running his hands down your back and kissing you softly and helping you catch your breath and when you finally get your heart to stop pounding and look up at him, he's watching you with this dangerously soft smile and he goes "oh you're in for it now aren't you honey?" and kisses your forehead while you try not to whimper.

FRANKIE MORALES

Frankie is a soft boy. He loves it. Craves it. He loves giving up control. Wants you to tie him up and have your way until he has no thoughts left in that pretty little head. He is swearing like an absolute sailor the entire time, calling you ma'am, begging to be released so he can kiss you and touch you, absolutely nearly breaks the head board once he was so desperate. Wants to be edged but also is the biggest WIMP about it. Will pout and swear and beg and plead but then want you to deny him again. Will definitely be mumbling absolute nonsense once you're done. Needs all the aftercare. Blushes pink when he gets it. Wraps himself around you like a HUGE koala bear after. ~and returns the edging favour 3 times over when he gets in his Captain Francisco Morales Mood~

JACK DANIELS

BONUS TWO I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT and tumblr won't let me put gifs for:

Jack makes every single cowboy joke known to man. You have to put your hand on his mouth to get him to shut the hell up. His eyes get all glassy when you do. He puts his hat on top of your head and busies himself in your neck (dual benefits: A. He shuts up and B. HICKIES) will definitely drag you on top of him in his Bronco (he likes to show off) will pull up on the side of the road almost 70% of the times you drive together. Bites you over your clothes. Loves the way you grab desperately at this leather jacket. Definitely makes you bend over and 'clean up the mess sugar' before driving like the hounds of hell are after him all the way back home and doing it all over again because "we gotta make you a mama now love"

PERO TOVAR

Pero got married after he came back and retired as a sell sword. His wife is a soft but sassy thing who's a little (read: not at all, she returns his snark twice over) intimidated by him but also thinks he's a good man because he saved her village from raiders. She has seen him grumble and snark at but then also share his food with the orphans who works at the village inn. She's inexperienced (let me live my victorian life) and he doesn't really think he deserves her but also he's not so much an idiot to say no to someone like her. She's the village "healer" and he met her when he got stabbed by one of the raiders (arm wound: not serious.) He has to teach her. She gets shy and flustered, which is a total 180 from her sassy self, and Pero loves it. She makes the most amazing sounds that have him thinking that maybe he did something right in his life to end up in her arms. She wants to please her new husband and asks her married friends for advice and they tell her about this new position. So she asks him, stuttering and tripping over words, if she could try something she heard about? From a friend? She straddles him and Pero loses his mind. He's closing his eyes and clenching his jaw so hard and she's whimpering in the most DELICIOUS way and he's trying so hard to hold back and let her take her pace and she's so worried "am I not doing it right?" Pero has to take 3 deep breaths before he's centred enough to answer and then he helps her. Puts his hands on her hips to guide her. Puts one of her hands on his shoulder "steady now pequenita" and puts the other low on her belly and presses in so she can feel him. Loves the way she cries out. Bends forward to leave little marks everywhere he can reach. She's scrambling at his chest, leaving nail marks he loves, and finally grabbing his hair and pulling until he groans. And when they're both done and sated and sweaty he kisses her, looks her in the eye and winks. "I'm going to have to go thank your friend now, mi esposa."

DIN DJARIN

Din and you dont have time. The razor crest is finally in hyperspace, you got shot at for the 50th time in 2 weeks, (because Murphys Law seems to be the only law Mando never breaks), you're exhausted, sweaty, and the giggly green monster of chaos only made you chase him down from the top of a weapons cabinet twice before he finally decided to take a nap. You're frustrated, and in desperate need of a shower, and a nap, but also you can't get the image of Mando fighting out of your head. Before you know it, the hormones have taken over and you're attacking him in the pilot seat. The bucket is off (I refuse to look at my own reflection in the tin cans helmet while we do the do), he's got you arching into him, your shirt is half torn from the top because Din refuses to wait for "so many fucking buttons Meshla" the gloved hand is squeezing the back of your neck, his mouth is on your chest, his other hand (you only managed to get one glove off) is splayed out on your back. You're riding him like you're trying to break him and his thigh holster? thing (do i look like i can figure out what they're called?) is digging marks into your skin but you're too turned on to care. It's frantic, it's messy, you're PRAYING the tiny green menace stays asleep as you do your best to muffle your sounds. The refresher isn't big enough for a round two, (you still do your best), and your legs feel like jelly, when you finally pass out; curled up on top of the human space heater while he hums Mando'a in your ear.

TAGGING: @chronically-ghosted (you are a menace but ily)

@fuckyeahdindjarin (here I go trying that writing thing again, stop me pls)

[pilvimarja]

Yeah I have to say Miles looks really good with the facial hair. He is literally the only person in the history of humanity who looked better solely with a mustache. The full beard/facial hair looks great, though. And whoever has been styling his HAIR deserves all the raises (I've been drawing it, and the layers are no joke). This is a good era for him. I hope he keeps up this good work and looks--for my sake, lol.

He looks so handsome! This is his best era since Rooster and I think we should name it! Any suggestions?? And yes, I've been digging the facial hair, but now I've also noticed his actual hair and how good it looks. It's very close to his Rooster cut, only darker. He also looks very gentle in the face now. I'm used to calling him puppy, but now he looks more like a teddy bear 🐻 He's more manly than boyish, like a nice mix of Rooster and Al Ruddy. I often see younger people who reblog my gifsets of him call him daddy in the tags, and I find it a kind of amusing (affectionate), because imo he's a little too young for that (and I'm obviously not talking about actual fathers here), but this is the first time that I kind of see the daddy.

[saecookie]

WAIT I DID NOT REGISTER THAT HE WAS KISSIN WILLEM DAFOE IN THE FANART?? ok tell me ab ur blorbos in John Wick. The only thing I know is that Keanu Reeves gets mad and kills people over killing his dog or something but I have no idea how they made multiple movies ab that. Hit me

Oh Sunni darling Sunni how i love you. First off, note that when I went on my rb spree after watching the last movie, i looked for Dafoe gifset especially, because I adore his character but also as a nudge nudge will Sunni? Imma rb them again once I've posted this.

Vague spoilers ahead for the basics of each movie.

So basically, John = was the very best of them all assassins, like, bedtime story for baby assassins who've been naughty. retired bc he became a tadam husband to his wife he loves dearly. life is a bitch, wifey dies of illness. john broken. A LITTLE PUPPY DETS DELIVERED TO HIS DOOR! turns out wifey arranged for it knowing he'd need something to keep going on.

As you know, dog gets killed. bad things* ensues. (*bad things = vengeance. but no! i'm not getting out of retirement, just, vengeance.) The movies are hysterically funny to me because they are GOLD at stating that John Wick truly is fucking feared among his peers, everyone is scared shitless when they hear "X killed John's dog, we're fucked" "But we're 56 and he's 1!" "nah we're fucked"

Second film is "oh I heard you're out of retirement turns out you owe me the big one assassin favour the moral code forces you to return" "but i don't want to i was just avenging MY PUPPY" "yes but you have to" it's peak "don't make me do this you're gonna regret it" Also featuring characters I adore, in Gianna d'Antonio and her friend/bodyguard Cassian, that i hc as John "assassin childhood/school friends" because I can.

Third movie is "the one climax from the 2nd movie is the capital assassin offence, no everyone is after you, try to get out of this one" and he does try. it's one big chase featuring yet again people fanboying over John Wick.

Out of the three movies, the first is the most balanced out one, like there is nothing bad to say about this movie it's a fucking banger. The second one's flaw is that it wants to make a second movie so one plot point seems a bit blind to me, but other than that, very funny and OH so pleasing, like there is a not to Enter the Dragon's mirror scene, like a whole fighting scene is in a museum and it's incredible, featuring a deaf character speaking ASL. The third one's flaw is that it's a chase; if you don't mind that it's ok, but it never stops so it's sometimes a bit tiring bc boom boom noises and lights.

The movies are GOLDEN, for who likes me loves action and figth scenes, those are incredibly choregraphed (not surprising from Chad Stahelski aka stuntman, stunt coordinator on Matrix, stunt for Reeves in Matrix, double for Brandon Lee in The Crow 😉).

There are some great characters (i'm getting there), with notably the Receptionist of the Hotel (hotel = big assassin lore point, it's a hotel franchise for assassins, where you pay with assassincoins, and it's "sacred ground" ie = when you're there, no business. everyone is your colleague, it's basically saying PAUSE from the assassin game), but also the barwoman that i adore, the director of the Hotel, Winston, Aurelio the mecanic who's my baby, AND

Marcus (Dafoe). Marcus is a character in the first movie. We don't know much about him (as for basically every character in the franchise : the show don't tell is excellent), beside the fact that he's an old friend/colleague of John. What i'm gonna say next is spoilery for the first movie but I guess you're here for that. We first see him attending from afar John's wifey funeral, and at the end coming to greet warmly John. Then in the first movie, someone puts a contract on John's head, an open one, but the sponsor also asks Marcus personnally bc he's one of the "old" generation, one who survived because he's one of the best. There's an exchange around "no problem killing your old buddy" "for 3M nah" and then he chases John all through the movie. And every time he points his sniper at him, someone is already there to try and kill him, so Marcus either kills the first killer or disturb the scene so that nobody else kills him. Throughout the movie we gather that he's not having an ego trip of "i want it to be ME who kills him" but rather that he accepted because he's a sniper and he just... towers bloody guardian angel John. We don't know why except for the fact that they were old friends, but what transpires is really some warm empathy/compassion/feeling sorry for him and wanting the best for him.

So i guess i just wanted some more content for their friendship but shipping them a way or another in their youth, i'm here for it. comet partners as for my own hc, but to each their own you know. They are so well paired and the movies are just so well directed, i swear, all the characters you can feel that they're not thinly written. THAT'S IT FOR THE BLORBOS and other SCRUNGLOS feel free to ask it's my current brain goes brrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Destiel Chronicles

Vol. CXXV

It was a love story from the very beginning

Loudly In Love

(14x10/14x11/14x12)

Hello my friends! After Purgatory we have a cute and dummy sweet Dean-bean in love with Castiel. As we'll see int this meta summary.

You can find the links to my metas from these episodes following this links: X, X, X, X, X, X, X, X, X, X, X, X, and X.

There's something in my throat

At the beginning of episode 15x10 we can read a shop's named BERENS' KWICK TRAP.

This takes another symbology now, with the horrible ending of the show. In which we could say Berens settle a trap to the C*W and he gave us 15x18 Castiel's love confession anyway.

Before talking about Dean's mating tap dance, let's talk about Dean vomiting again. Because it's relevant again, due to the shitty ending and how C*W silenced him.

Throughout the whole season 15, we had vomits, gagging situations. And in this episode we had two important scenes related to this symbolism:

One was Dean literally vomiting, and the second was Dean datin: "I HAVE SOMETHING IN MY THROAT"

Gif credit @agusvedder

What had Dean stuck in his throat? Maybe the ILY TOO to Castiel that never happened. But writers gave it it's relevance by writing it like this.

Maybe they were trying to day we will never have it.

They silenced him, for real.

Baby Castiel and Color Symbolism

I wrote this in one of my metas...

Baby Sam was dressed with a yellow ascot. Accurate. And Baby Castiel was dressed in blue. Accurate too.

Bess was dressed, and pay attention to this..., She was in pink (happiness) green (Dean) and light blue (purity)... She said to Dean that Cas was looking at him with love. Right? The happiness and purity in Dean was telling him Castiel looks at him with love in his eyes! Now... Dean said Cas baby kept looking at him weird. And Sam (who knows) said JUST LIKE CAS DOES.

And then Castiel's eyes glowed and Dean said... I think he has something for you to Bess (symbolically representing Dean's happiness and purity) GOSH IT WAS PERFECT!

This is something too cute, because finally, they talked about the Destiel eye-love-making and the fan-service with some SAMMY KNOWS.

Gifset credit @subbydean

Another important reference was Garth. When he went to rescue the boys, Garth was playing Castiel's mirror. And when Garth breaks that lock (Just like Castiel will do in the incoming episode) But mostly because Dean's reaction to it was priceless!

DEAN: You're so strong! He's so strong!

This is, literally, what Dean thinks about Castiel everytime he's in BAMF mode.

Numbers

Just a brief travel through the repeated numbers in the narrative in this episode (you can find the extended version of this in the links I put in the top of this meta)

Basically, we had number 7, 5, 17 and 40 repeating in the dialogues and the visual narrative. Some examples of that are the following scenes...

The Beren' kwick trap had a poster naming "7 days per week", then this one...

Dean eating 7 pieces of cheese.

Biblically talking, number 7 is the perfect number, represents God and knowledge. And it talks about Chuck then, knowing Chuck is writing this. But it also is what it means KNOWLEDGE.

Now, number 5...

Also at Garth's house, the address said 75

In numerology talks about socialize, and self-knowledge in masculinity and sexuality... Hello Dean!

But number 5 also represents in Bible the grace God concedes to David to defeat Goliath, the giant, written on the first book of SAMUEL (yes, Samuel) chapter 17.

Gif credit @agusvedder

17 means HOPES,it's what TFW keeps alive go defeat Chuck.

Now, number 40...

GARTH: Yeah, better than I ever thought I’d get. I mean, hunting – I figured I’d be dead before I’m 40. You know, go out young and pretty. But now I’ve got a great wife, great kids. I guess...sometimes things work out.

Putting to a side these had been also Dean's old thoughts... writers really got me here...

40 years old, but 40 is a common biblical number that talks about self-knowledge and growth. It talks about CHANGES. So so accurate with Dean and that caterpillar/butterfly wall in episode 15x04.

I really thought back then we will have the huge change in Dean through his love confession to Castiel. I mean, we had a change in his own way to see himself, thanks to Castiel. Let's keep that as a consolation prize.

An ABO fic plus Mating Dance

This episode had an ABO fic hudden as it also had the learning lesson about MATING FOR LIFE.

The visual narrative and the dialogues pointed at it.

Garth hugging g Dean as he said: YOU SMELL GOOD, remember Garth is a werewolf, and he was smelling Dean's pheromones because this episode happened after Purgatory, Dean is facing the knowledge about his romantic love for the angel, and it shows.

The swan's statues in one of the rooms in Garth house. Swans are birds that mate for life, and males swans can mate with another males for life. Hello Destiel. (Also, the room where these statues were placed was color BLUE)

The tap dancing and the suggestive lyrics of 'Let's Misbehave' was perfectly settled as a mating dancing I'm which Dean invited Castiel (the lamp) to Misbehave with him. Showing us that there's not just sweet and innocent love in Dean's heart but also a passionate fire and a desire to make love with him. That's what the song says, and that's why Garth mentioned colonoscopy, as a medical tool to health control, because cavities are related to Colon Cancer.

The wolf puppy is back

And following the same topic about ABO, the scene in which Jack is back with his family was similar (if not the same) as a wolf pack behavior documental.

Dean checks on Jack's eyes and immediately after that he checks on his pack mate, Castiel, to see if Jack is Jack. Beautiful

Gifset credit @thelordoftherings

Bi!Dean and Tolstoy

There's more info in my links at the top, but let's see why Dean called himself "Tolstoy" in that bar in front of that greek goddess in episode 14x11.

Okay, we had the singer from 'Let's Misbehave' (Cole Porter) a queer man, and now we have Tolstoy, a bisexual man...

DEAN: I'm Tolstoy

So much love

I will only speak about this scene:

Gif credit @agusvedder

There's more analysis about the dialogue here related to the storyline about Chuck, Jack and TFW. But because these are the Destiel Chronicles, I know I have to talk about this particularly Destiel heart eyes scene.

Because Dean is loud, his eyes and his face, he is yelling how proud he feels about Castiel, but it also, the ways his eyes just lingered to him, full of love, it's perfect, and no one can tell me these are not two men in love.

Look at how Csstiel turns his face to him, with a small smile, trying to hide his joy for being praised by the man he loves and also for share this moment with him. And the feels are of an old married couple that still love each other so much.

I just wanted to finish this meta with this "Good Omens" like scene.

To Conclude:

Dean reaffirmed he is in love with Castiel, and he wants to spend his life with him, as a couple. He loves the angel romantically, and he also desires Castiel with passion.

We also had several confirmations of Bi!Dean and some fan service with Sammy knows.

Hope you like this meta, see you in the next one.

[redxblueihateloveyou]

spill the yoi hot takes :o

I’m really flattered with the amount of asks (I hope you won't mind that I combined at least 5, it's just easier this way), interested in my yoi opinions, I wasn’t planning to get into that honestly, until I mentioned it to my friend Alex (I’ve mentioned him here before without a name tho, he’s gay, he’s very into anime, he was also the one behind that 4am text “but how do u think Rin’s teeth feel on Haru’s dick” lol). 

I just didn't want to rewatch it, as I've said before, but something he said got me very intrigued and last week ended up with me staying until 7am for a virtual watch party that got pretty hilarious, but not for the yoi reasons lol.

So just know that to be completely fair we did it and I'm saying everything below with a very fresh impression, which hasn't changed really bc like I'm 25, I was watching it the first time when I was 21, not 14 xD. I think it got worse actually.

Once again, I know that since they’re both gay sports animes comparisons are inevitable, but to me one has nothing to do with the other and no matter the fact that I adore Free! and don’t like YOI, I don’t want to throw words like smth is “superior” out there, bc I don’t want to be like those YOI fans back in the days, who thought that none other gay ships should exist after this (unless they say smth specifically for me to counterattack, then I can say whatever lol).

Like if you love stories like this, it’s okay. Like what you like. But to yell at everybody that they must think that this is how relationships should be and trash every other gay ship in existence, you maybe should not, especially when you don’t really have much to be proud of. Just like kisses don’t make a love story high-quality, full censorship doesn’t take away a good love story.

"Heaven official’s blessing” is also censored, but no matter how much you censor it, their love for each other is seen in their actions so clear, that it is in fact will not take anything away from the power of their feelings and the greatness of their love story if at the end they won’t show them kissing. Just like if I kiss a random stranger on the street, it won’t make us the best couple in the world.

Now I went into watching YOI unbiased the 1st time I watched it (I did watch it after Free, bc it was in “recommended”). I did not expect it to be “like Free”, I just wanted smth that’ll give me the same kind of emotion, investment in the story, ship, etc. It didn’t, so I just moved on.

I didn’t even think deep about why. I thought I just grew out of the “Cinderella” stories a long time ago or as it was here not very gracefully called “how to turn the pig into the prince”.

Like if you want the “she’s all that” but with the boy instead of a girl, you’ll probably enjoy YOI. But once again, love stories I enjoy are the opposite of those. It's really nothing bad, if you enjoy the stuff like “Someday my prince will come” in whatever age tbh, but I since a certain age just wasn’t invested in those anymore and began to obsess with stories like “Anastasia” instead, and I’m talking about love stories with less naivety in between and feelings out of nowhere, but more stuff like “yes, bitch, I find you attractive, true, but whether I fall for you unconditionally or not, only real life situations will tell later on”.

And I don’t mean stuff like going through war together or some epic journey, but grown ups must know those. Those life situations or even tiny things someone do, that make you not only fall for someone, but think “yeah, I can imagine my life with you”.

Like in my humble opinion, you can’t fall in love with someone bc of the way they swim or skate, for example. What ppl call “love at first sight” is in fact “attraction at first sight”. So yes, we do joke about Rin falling in love at first sight, bc he did in fact walked into the hall, saw Haru and was like “dat bitch is so fine”, even tho he was just standing there, but once again, he was just attracted to him. What happens after this is you can go on a whole beautiful journey with tiny Rin putting together the prettiest puzzle of why he falls for Nanase Haruka. In such little things like when Haru slowed down when he saw Nagisa feeling bad during running and Rin was like “omg you’re so uwu”, how he mentions that he always helps ppl, but never asks for help himself, he slowly gradually paints a picture of what kind of person Haru is, same goes for Haru about Rin. And then you have a whole story of them falling for each other all over again when they’re already adults, and you again watch it through their eyes, and once again I’m not in fact talking about some grand gestures like 1x12, I’m talking about stuff like them focusing on Haru’s eyes shaking, when he saw that Rin secretly helps Rei to learn how to swim. It’s the little things, that you watch and you get why they feel what they feel for each other. And that also makes you fall in love more with their characters by seeing how the other sees them.

YOI doesn’t have those moments. Not only they weren’t in any situations that would make them know each other for who they really are, they hardly even know the basic info about one another. Hell, the viewer doesn’t know anything about them. And this is why to me it goes into the category of those typical romcoms I can’t get invested in.

So I don’t think these two can be compared. And while some yell “bc you’re not canon, but yoi is canon”, I think they can’t be compared for another reason. Bc some ppl are trying to prove to me that a 27 years old man fell head over heels in love with someone overnight during a drunk banquet, then watched a vid of him skating and flew to another country and hey “if you win a gold medal, lets get married”. This is not the kind of relationship progression I’m looking for like at all. Between that time he started training him and their “censored kiss” there was nothing and I mean nothing that’d made me go “yeah, I see why he loves him”.

But anyways, lets live piecefully really, you can like one, you can like both, it’s all okay.

Like I know many have ptsd and it’s true that back when YOI was popular, most of their fans for real did annoy to death almost everyone, bc they yelled that No.6 is trash, when someone said “but you’re not the only one gay story that’s not based on sex”. They yelled that Free! has no right to exist bc its queerbating (LOL). By that time, I’m not gonna lie I was ready to poke my eyes out each time I saw smth YOI related, bc it was like: you make a multigay shipping vid -  “how dare u not include YOI”, you make a gifset - “you forgot YOI” like I HAD TO like it just bc it’s gay. There is no such rule to me. Just like I don’t care for some hetero romances, I don’t care for some gay romances. Simple is that. Once again gay has nothing to do with the relationships dynamic and the story.

Yeah, comments about fanservice. Like why should I watch Victor’s naked ass for several minutes every episode, but don’t get to see Haru or Rin’s at least once? So salty rn.

Free is more fanservice-y.. well, it’s hella fanservicy, yes, but like we can’t swim in shirts, you can tho not show naked ass in each episode, I thought you were skating. 

See, it’s all debatable.

But I do wish ppl stop putting yoi relationships on a piedestal, their relationship are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too far from being inspirational for many and not even close to the what love is in my opinion. If you seek smth of a very high standart of gay love, choose MDZS for example, idk. But don’t throw YOI at ppls faces as a “this is how should be”. Not everyone wants that.

I don’t need a half-assed engagement and esp the censored kiss (like either do it or don’t do it at all honestly). Also stuff like this should carry weight. I don’t want things for the sake of things.

Like to me Rin’s “the only thing that hasn’t changed in my life is how I feel about you” speech, considering the fact that he felt like that throughout all those years, means hella more, than this. 

I think 1stly, it’s because of the “it’s like it was a destiny xD” factor and 2ndly, bc at least this scene gives a little more sense to the fact that he flew to another country to train him. Now it’s if “I fell MADLY in love in one drunk night and was pining my whole life after that and that vid was a sign for me to go see you again” makes any sense to you. At least that’s how some fans read it.

Once again it might be a good thing for a passable one-time romantic comedy. But plots and pairings like this is what made me turn to anime in the first place, so.. sorry lol.

All this mega tragic posts of “Victor was soooo in love for such long time, it’s so sad” made me laugh so hard. Like he feel in love so hard during a one drunk banquet with a guy who was so drunk he didn’t remember anything he did? WHY? HOW? what could he possibly do to make him fall that hard, no one knows. Like to me the only reason u can fall for someone in one night is if you saw him risking his life saving a kitten or a puppy from a car or smth.

I’m just not the kind of person who thinks you can fall for someone for no reasons. Again, you can find someone attractive and go from there, but there must be things along the way that will make me believe in the progression of it. It can of course all come in the future, but the story was what the story was. Whatever you are trying to add to it is already a fanfiction.

YOI is not boring per se, bc everything goes way too fast and sometimes with no reasoning, so I was more surprised that “this was it?” lmao. But their relationships are dull, yes. Bc there is nothing to even discuss really, you can only assume things, bc the whole thing didn’t give u much, esp in the characters department. It’s just really funny to me that someone would write a whole post of “I love this character bc I presume he’s like that”, usually it’s “I love this character bc facts, facts, facts”.

______

Now back to the beginning of my post and to the funny story that happened. We were randomly discussing shit, when I mentioned about possibly rewatching YOI, bc I didn’t want to start talking about smth in case I forgot some stuff (I didn’t btw lol) and turned out that he freaking disliked it a lot. I never even asked, for some reason, and we’ve been yelling about Free! and other stuff for ages and like his boyfriend is in love with Sousuke and they both adore rinharu to death.

And he has lots of gay friends who love Free (this made me happy the most, btw during our YOI chat I asked and it was 4:1 harurin:rinharu haha I win) and some ships from Haikyuu too, but turns out that literally none of them were into YOI. And the funniest thing he said was “bc it felt more heterosexual than some heterosexual stories I’ve watched”. Now I don’t know if it would make sense to anyone else out there, but I kinda did get what he meant.

I asked if it was bc of the “fairytale setting” and the fact that no one cared that they’re gay (bc “in front of the stadium?!” was the reaction, when I told them “there was a cencored kiss here” (btw not everyone got it lolz) and then “did they just write the story with a girl, but then changed it by the end?”), but they said “no, just the overall feeling”.

And like everyone knows that YOI targeted audience is hetero girls. It wasn’t made for the sake of the LGBT community and none of the homophobic ppl will watch it either, no matter what some think. So for whom they did it the way they did it is very questionable tbh. They say it’s the LGBT representation in anime, and yes, good, great, always happy about, but isn’t it kinda funny that some of LGBT representatives don’t even feel like it apparently.

Now I’m just saying some, I’ve asked him to ask around out of curiousity, and it was only 11 gay guys in total, who watched it, including our company and his bf who was forced into it haha, but 11 is quite a lot, considering the fact that not even 1 liked it. But then somehow stuff like MDZS and even uncanonical mikayuu was highly appreciated and loved, bc it accidentally made a dent in some extra conservative parents and dull ppl.

It’s just much more interesting to hear what guys who are actually dating guys think about all those kind of animes and ships, than some girls here who yell at me stuff like “why are you supporting queerbating”. Btw I asked Alex if he’s offended by that, he said “no, but we for real think they’re doing it” lmao.

It is supposed to be funny. You didn’t get it wrong. But if you saw many ppl would aggressively disagree with you. I just thought that “analysis” was an “interpretive process that draws conclusions from a set of facts”, not “writing a fanfiction based on assumptions”, but then again to each their own. 

The problem is that I don’t even get what’s cute about it, it’s just absurd to me. Like it’s pulled out of an ass, for real. They’re not in the stage of a relationships, when I would find such thing romantic. And all the agressive denying of the fact that it was indeed wedding rings made this scene cringy, too. The whole thing is cringy to me idk. The “win the gold, only then we’ll get married”.... It all gave me a weird feeling. The opposite of “touching”.

So in conclusion, when you skip most of the important parts of the love story and jump into stuff just for the sake of it, then also make fun of it, it leaves a hella weird impression and aparently not just to me.

And once again trying to market some primitive story as an epic love story, just bc it’s gay is extremely weird to me. If you make 50 shades of grey gay, it’s not gonna suddenly become a pulitzer prize winning kind of book, it’ll stay the same dumb af story with dumb af characters, but gay.

So being happy about some representation (and btw they still managed to add stuff like “its not gay if you exchange rings with your hommies” here and there and make it “hahahaha joking”), I get it, but to say that this what all the gay ships should aim for, pls stop. We really don’t wanna. Sincerelly. 

We here stick to a motto “I can picture the kiss of the characters whose story is so amazing, that the kiss is the only thing missing, but if I basically have just a picture of two guys kissing, I won’t write a whole story myself.”

P.S. I will forever laugh now tho at the fact that calling your bf a “pig” and being an arogant asshole without any canonically established reasonings is a great relationships, but Adam with his past gets what he gets now for the “dog” comments even tho his bf enjoys it lmao like I did not remember this bits in YOI. I honestly thought it was like completely “unproblematic” one, but it’s like hilariously not. So what ppl are trying to even put out their as a “pinnacle of the lgbt representation” as you say, like there are for real older yaois that are much better than this.

ON THIS BLESSED THAT IS MAX & MARCUS MONDAY I SAW THIS GIFSET FOR THE FIRST TIME

LOOK AT HIS CUTE SURPRISED FACE SAYING HE WAS IN A BAND

MISS LUCREZIA I NEED YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS I’M CRYING HE IS AN ACTUAL PUPPY

Hi there, my sweet love!! 💚 Happy Marcus & Max Monday!!

Ah yes, musical Marcus... this one makes me feel things on a personal level... I want (desperately) to sing with this man... 🎶🎵

But just imagine... you're doing some mindless task like cooking or cleaning or even working from home and you're full on belting some song (either completely acapella or along with an audible song) and all of a sudden this deep (because there is no way he's not at least a bass 1...) voice is singing along with you...

That's how he let's you know he was in a band... which naturally leads to more singing with Marcus... then begging him to play the bass for you... and eventually leads to you two singing some cute duet... like crusin' is made for love...

[imogenlefay]

oooh, a ship game! tagged by @perfectromanceinmymind​ who i just started adoring more for reading Imzadi. ok, let’s get into this!

rules: Movie/TV ship questions; answer with a GIF; no repeats

1. First ship - Janeway and Chakotay (Star Trek: Voyager)

yeah, I KNOW. since i started my rewatch i’ve been complaining about how boring chakotay is and how captain mom - i mean mommy - i mean janeway deserves someone way more interesting. hell, i’m pretty sure i’ll be shipping Q with her over chakotay. and just see waht will happen when seven of nine shows up. ...but yeah. sue me. it’s THERE. it’s obvious. it’s just also very, very boring. 

2. First OTP - Lily and James (Harry Potter)

so, i know, tons of issues with harry potter. but that was a fandom i was super invested in. ctually, not sure that’s the right way to put it. i was super invested into the books, waxed and waned a bit... and the funny thing is, i didn’t care about the whole harry-ron-hermione-ginny thing until i started reading fandom things and was totes fine with whatever was happening (actually kinda rooting for ginny since book 2). didn’t really care about these ships. but lily and james? from first finding out about the marauders, i was on board of that ship. also, snape was a creep and a horrible person, and a nice guy, and that was not romantic

3. Favourite current ship - Sebastian and Blaine (Glee)

do i have to say it? seblaine from glee. these two have barley 15 minutes of screentime, but the chemistry is just there. i still think they were set up to be at least a midgame ship that fell through when grant gustin was busy with the flash, which given the writing on glee and the insistance on klaine as an endgame might have actually been for the better, but there’s just something about them. if blaine’s in the room, sebastian’s eyes are on him. when sebastian shows up, blaine’s mood lifts. Just so much potential, wasted again - but that’s the glee thing. 

4. Shipped from the first minute - Dean and Castiel (Supernatural)

sooooo, i won’t say they’re canon, but they’re half-canon and broke the internet. now, keep in mind, i stopped watching supernatural around season 8? the one in which metatron showed up, idk. it got so boring how every season another main character was the bad guy, the winchesters got more toxic, and of course, the treatment of cas. so i’ve seen from gift that got super toxic. but come on. i’m the one who gripped you tight and raised you from perdition. best entrance ever, electric chemistry, gradually growing connection... i’m ignoring most of supernatural canon, but that was magic. 

5. Wish they had been endgame - Barney and Nora (How I Met Your Mother)

my shipping history with himym is... spotty. i liked ted/robin, was fine with them breaking up, and reaaaally got into barney/robin. until they got together, were awful and broke up. sure, i blamed the writing, but that short stint killed my enthusiasm. enter nora. sweet, smart, confident nora who is not ashamed to admit she’s a romantic and clearly state what she wants, who calls barney on his bs and won’t let him walk all over her. and also, the first woman barney actually wanted to be in a relationship with. even with robin, lily had to bully them into it. i thought she was really good for him, and he was at his best with her. hated how she was pushed aside to bring back more barney/robin drama (who srsly brought out the worst in each other) still my headcanon that he runs into her again when he’s more mature, caring for his daughter. but alas, has to remain a headcanon. (also, it’s a pic cause i literally can’t even find a gif)

6. Wish they had been canon - Bashir/Garak (Star Trek: DS9)

sorry, not sorry. the dynamic between is amazing - the brilliant but naive new doctor, excited like a freaking puppy, meeting the mysterious spy pretending to be a tailor while trying to move away from his past. there is SO much chemistry, fascination, intrigue between them, even if they aare so fundamentally different. just... damn. except at some point midway they stopped giving them scenes. were they afraid of the chemistry? idk but i’ll spread the rumor. because we were cheated. 

7. Ship everyone else hates - Ted and Robin (How I Met Your Mother)

i get it. the writing had issues. writing an endgame ahead of time can backfire. ted backtracking to robin again and again gets really annoying. the mother was seriously amazing and i still can’t believe they pulled her off so well after all the buildup. and the pacing of wasting a whole season on a wedding for a couple that gets divorced within like five minutes is awful. i know all that. but i honestly think they work. their first relationship was seriously sweet - nothing like the trainwreck between barney and robin - and for them to come together when the timing is right, they both grew and matured, and are in the right places in their lives... idk, they work for me. 

8. Don’t even watch the show but still ship - Rory and Jess (Gilmore Girls)

i literally only know gifsets of them. they look cute. 

9. Wish they had a different storyline - House and Cameron (House MD)

i seriously shipped them so much in season 1. their date was sweet, especially how before wilson told her to please not break house’s heart. but after the date, they just threw it out. i had some hope again when she left his team and returned as head of the ER, just cause i thought it changed the power dynamic and maybe they had a shot. that’s what i would have liked to see. that they work together occasionally, and he starts seeing her more as an equal and maybe build something from there. would probably been way healthier than the toxic crap with cuddy. 

10. Actually endgame - Emma and Hook (Once Upon A Time)

oh hi, jennifer morrison, haven’t seen you in a bit. so, i also stopped watching once upon a time, as the stories got too wild and i never got into regina’s big redemption, which consisted of *checks notes* deciding she’s redeemed now and screw anyone who disagrees. but i did love captain swan. did not see that coming. like, sure, hook flirts from their first interaction, but i was against them, given how antagonistic they were. but come season 3 and neverland, and their kiss? and damn. they took chemistry, and actually built something from it, and this time, it freaking worked. which is rare. so yes, so many issues with the show, but these two? ready to set sail, captain!

[khaotungsfirst]

Yeah I agree, the storylines Amy and Rory got weren't great. But honestly, I think the cast helped bring life to the characters which is why I like them so much anyway 😊 And yes to Martha! She's so awesome, I actually rewatched her seasons a few months back and found I loved them more than I remembered? I don't really watch current DW now (fell off following it not long after the 50th), but I still like revising the old episodes from time to time. They make me smile 😊 - CC 🦊

We'll find some way to watch tgcf, worry not! If the Funimation route doesn't work I'll see if I can ask around and find something else. I'm so used to looking to sites like Crunchyroll when it comes to non-western animation that I forget the site doesn't list a lot of stuff that isn't just anime 😂CC reveal is in a few days so I'll send you the Funi link for the first episode then and you can see if it works for you too 😊- CC 🦊

Aww, I'm glad you had a good Christmas though ��️ Where I live decorations aren't too overboard either. A lot of people either put lights outside or on outdoor trees, and a few houses might do a window display. I have seen some videos on YouTube this year though of streets that are purposely decorated extravagantly for people to go and visit, but it's mostly America I've seen those. They look so pretty and a ton of fun though! - CC 🦊

I love your Christmas gift ideas for some of the characters. And lol, omg, you made me laugh with 'wwx not being allowed to give lwj a massage it'll just turn nsfw' because yeah ... yeah it would with them 🤣Matching hair pieces for them though that act like an engagement ring is such a cute idea 🥺I think I'd give jc a puppy, but only if he promises to not upset his brother's phobia with it! He just needs a good pup - - CC 🦊

I'd give lwj a lotus root soup recipe so he could make it for wwx, or if jy is able prod her into the idea of doing so if she hadn't already. wwx can have some new black robes - i'm sure lwj is spoiling him with more luxurious ones, but the boy needs a bigger wardrobe! sizhui and the boys can have an expenses paid meal at their favourite restaurant, with plenty of chicken for jingyi 🤣- CC 🦊

I think this might be my last question time for you before reveal! I'll try and make it a special one 😊 Do you have any favourite memories from this past year? Can be related to something that's happened in fandom or through mdzs, or can just be something that's made you happy or smile. I know 2020 hasn't been the easiest year, but there's been pockets of sunshine between all the crazy! ☀️ - CC 🦊

Talking to you about dw really made me want to rewatch some of the old episodes. I also fell off pretty soon after the 50th, though I did return to watch all of 12′s episodes and I would watch the new ones as well but they’re simply not easily available to me atm 😩

Aaaaahh I can’t wait to start our lil tgcf buddy watch!! It’s gonna be great cause if we love it we can scream abt it together and if we don’t like it we can roast it together 😂 (but I think we’re gonna love it)

Oh yeah, I’ve also seen some crazy american christmas decorations on youtube where the entire street is lit up. I would love to see that irl some day!

I thought abt giving jc a puppy, too but... wwx... 😅 though maybe wwx should get therapy sessions for christmas so he can work through his trauma and then maybe one day not be afraid of dogs anymore or at least not of jc’s dog 😅and aaaahhhh yes!! jyl introducing lwj to her cooking and especially the lotus root and ribs soup and lwj would be so diligent in learning how to do it perfectly bc he loves wwx so much!!! 🥺yes more robes for wwx!!! and maybe also some colourful ones (like not bright colours but maybe jewel toned?? like a really dark blue or red? 👀 he’d look like a snacc) 

and that’s such a sweet question! i’m not going to lie i had to think abt it for a moment cause as you said, 2020 really wasn’t the best of years for any of us, but i have a few: 

buying my first car!!! whooo a bitch is free to go wherever she wants whenever she wants!! (if covid would let me 😩)

finding an apartment and looking forward to living by myself (i CANNOT wait to decorate my apartment he way i want it to look!!)

the realisation that i’m fully and truly over my ex and that i’m actually quite content with being single (do i still want love? yeah sure but i’m not desperately craving it anymore and it feels so liberating)

the new lady gaga album giving me life

discovering the untamed and and just LOVING something so much and wholeheartedly again. i’ve missed being so wrapped up in one piece of media cause i haven’t had that in quite some time and it feels so nice!

joining the mdzs fandom who have been the nicest and most welcoming ppl ever! i’ve been on this website for almost a decade and never have i felt like i belong somewhere or like i had mutuals who are my friends until now. i have met so many amazing ppl in the past few months since i joined the fandom and it makes me so happy!! i love all of you, including you, dear CC! you all have made me life so much brighter! ❤️(also going along with that: returning to gifmaking and just having a creative outlet again is SO MUCH FUN)

this is related to the previous point but it stuck with me: one night when i went to bed, i was smiling so much and i felt so indescribably happy simply because ppl on here were being nice to me and my gifsets were doing well and we were all having a laugh at something fandom-related and i just... it sounds so stupid but i went to sleep with a smile on my face and i don’t remember the last time that happened

getting passionate about learning a new language which is chinese! i don’t know for how long that will last but atm i’m enjoying it so much and i hope i’ll get to at least a semi-fluent level! it’s a language that’s completely different from the other languages i’ve learned so far and i loooove the characters!! also it makes me feel productive during these boring times.

asakdjfgjdfdkgf so many of these are related to mdzs but i truly feel like it saved me from spiralling into a dark seasonal depression. maybe not the healthiest way to cope but better than nothing... 🤷🏻‍♀️

Dear CC, I want to thank you for keeping me company and asking me so many fun questions this past month! 💕 I can’t wait to find out who you are and start watching tgcf with you. I hope you had just as much fun with your personal CC as I had with you. See you on NYE! 😘

best of brio hitlist: 1x06

Alrighty here I am back on my bullshit with 1x06 aka A View from the Top. The top of what you may ask? I really can’t remember, s1 has basically all blurred together into a sea of excellent eyeliner and Rio in a hoodie. Guys, did you know at one point Mick had a jacket that fit? I nearly fell off of my couch. What do you think happened to it? 

Let me open this with a serious question: who in the writers room was traumatized by a doctor bc this show has a consistently unkind view of people with medical degrees 

Like obvs yes the lady doc in s3 was lying for justice and puppies and to save Rio from making rash decisions in a fit of dramatics (lol good luck lady that is a fruitless endeavor) or whatever but still, yikes

Anyway lmao @ Beth being like your budget is $1 do what you can to save my trash husband from his trash cancer

Where did that energy go it was so great

Petition for the Hills to do one musical number every other episode 

I’d say every episode but you know they’re just gonna take it from Rio’s screen time 

Such a sartorial mixed bag this scene, on the one hand you have Beth’s hat (awful, work awfully, in total competition with the scarf, not a good look) but on the other you have Annie’s jacket (adorable, I want to bury my face in her hood and never come out)

I CANNOT BELIEVE WE GOT HOODIE RIO 3 EPS IN A ROW

AND NOW WITH A BEANIE??????

I say it again, s1 is god tier

HI MICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did not realize that Rio licking his lips is in reaction to Beth talking about how much money the girls have been turning around for him

He is so horny for money

They were made for each other tbh

Shout out to Ruby’s hysterically unsurprised face when Beth swerves and asks for more money instead of quitting that is the face of someone who has been on this ride for Way Too Long

Ruby: in hindsight we should’ve never let Beth talk I see that now

GO BIG OR GO HOME RIGHT what a nerd I love her

Ruby: I am actually going to commit murder here and now

“Brought that mama van with you?” Why is this so hot I don’t understand nothing about it should be sexual least of all minivans

The way Beth straightens up and gives that perky little I did good!!!!!! nod is so fucking cute I want to punch myself in the face

YOU CANT JUST SERVE A BITCH A MINI MUFFIN AND ASK HER TO JOIN YOU IN A LIFE OF CRIME

A CLASSIC!!!!!!!!!!

Cut to Ruby serving a bitch a mini muffin, I really do love this show

HI TYLER!!!!!!!!!

Okay now there’s like, a preteen girl Boland child??!!! Where are these children coming from?????? Where do they go????????

I’m going to say something potentially controversial: I’m deeply unmoved by and largely uninterested in the whole thing with Annie and Boomer’s racist grandma 

Tyler: you can just call corporate right???? It’s not like this is a poorly thought through farce of a pyramid scheme with holes big enough to drive a bus through right?????????

It has been driving me bonkers since the first time I watched this ep trying to figure out who Christine Hendricks looks like in the brunette wig someone please put me out of my misery and tell me

Hey!!! Did you know I fucking hate Dean??????? 

I have mixed feelings on the sit down/that’s exactly what happened thing like on the one hand I love watching Beth effortlessly play Dean, but on the other the knowledge that the breathy baby doll voice she uses does it for him makes my skin crawl

I violently do not like when the Hills have conflict so I am electing to ignore it entirely

I missed everything that happened during the Boomer scene(s) because I was looking at Schitt’s Creek gifsets and I stand by my choices

I find the girls sitting on the swings weirdly endearing and I also really adore the framing of that shot

Seriously do not understand why they did away with everyone dragging Dean it was such a great feature

‘CUZ YOU DELIVERED

GOD!!!!! I LOVE!!!!!!! THE SMILES!!!!!!!!!!!

Rio: (✿◕ ﺮ ◕)

Beth: (◠‿◠✿)

Mick, Ruby and Annie: right???? in front?????? of our salad????????

My ultimate gg kink is, to no one’s surprise least of all my own, Beth surprising and impressing Rio and Rio instantly getting a boner over it

I would like to formally request they bring back this dynamic in some way shape or form specifically as a present to me bc I deserve it

In Beth and Ruby’s defense, the flip my game speech makes minimal sense, there were several poorly supported leaps

Shout out to Annie’s blazer and side boob, it is my all time fav Annie look

hey look my icon

Stan smelling the cash and goofing around with Ruby: 😍

Knowing Ruby’s still lying and it’s all gonna fall apart: 😥

I don’t think I properly realized until right now, as I’m nearly blinded by my tears of mirth over Dean saying “he’s never going to mess with you again, not on my watch” how much I love the dress Beth is wearing

This has been a very fashionable ep for the Marks sisters, Beth’s hat aside

The it was a choice speech would slap so much harder if Beth finished it off by stabbing Dean in the eye with a pair of scissors instead of dumping a bunch of money all over him

Takeaway from this episode: honestly it’s no wonder Beth is so bad at being a crime lord she had a horrible teacher that speech was truly insensible

great now i need more about reddie's kid throwing that tempter tantrum and calling richie by his name lmfao look what you've done james lfksngs ily

based on this gifset by @tozierhaders

This was Richie’s worst fear, and from the look on Eddie’s face, clearly it was his too. A demon was staring them down, daring them to make the first move.

That demon’s name was Julian, and they adopted him four years ago, when he was seven months old. He could sometimes be a demon then, but nowhere near this degree. All the parenting books and mommy blogs called kids “cherub faced angels,” which Eddie could somewhat agree with. When he googled a cherub face, it looked horrific. Sometimes Julian looked horrific.

But Richie and Eddie loved and adored him to pieces. He was their perfect baby boy.

Except maybe not right now.

“Jules, hon, you’re gonna have to put that uh- Peppa, right? Peppa Pig? Yeah, she’s gotta go back on the shelf. We just came for a birthday gift for your cousin, remember?” Eddie attempted to sway his son, crouching to be a little more level with him. Julian whined, stomping his foot on the ground.

Richie placed a hand on Eddie’s shoulder, squeezing it as he said, “I’ll handle this.” Eddie stood up straight, folding his arms over his chest. “Okay, buddy, here’s the deal. You’re gonna put the toy back-”

“No!” Julian shouted, attracting the attention of a passing couple. Richie shot them a dirty glance, as if to say mind your business, before quickly looking back down at his son. Pinching the bridge of his nose, he suddenly wished he lost contact with Ben and Bev. Then they wouldn’t have to pick out a stupid toy for their stupid daughter’s birthday party.

“Yes, actually, Julian. You’re gonna put that toy back-”

“No, I’m NOT, RICHIE!” His voice pierced through Richie’s eardrums, but what stuck was hearing this baby say his name. Behind him, he could hear Eddie stifling a snort.

“Okay. First of all, it’s Papa.” Again, he could hear Eddie snorting. Shooting a glare, he hissed under his breath, “Do you want a repeat of last month’s ice cream incident?”

“I do not, but-”

“Why do you have to laugh while I”m trying to discipline your son?”

“Is he only my son when he’s in troub– Where did he go?”

“Wh- Julian?!”

Both of them whipped their heads back to where Julian was, amazed his four-year-old feet could carry him away so quickly. Eddie ran to the end of the aisle, panicked when he couldn’t see the familiar messy mop of black hair.

“Jules? Julian!”

Richie nearly broke into a sprint, but stopped just short of leaving the aisle. A tiny, Julian-sized Barney sneaker was poking out from the bottom shelf. Motioning to Eddie, he pointed down. Both of them stood over the spot, and Richie got down to his knees. Eddie pulled alcohol wipes from his fanny pack, protecting his hands from the gross linoleum as he copied his husband.

Julian clutched the stuffed pig tightly in his arms, his face pink and tear-streaked. Eddie frowned, and he pleaded silently with Richie, using his puppy eyes to their full capability.

“I wanted a Pomeranian,” Richie huffed, knowing damn well he wanted Julian more. Looking at their son, his shoulders slumped when he realized he had the same, giant, sad eyes Eddie had. “Oh, Hell.” Pulling Julian out, rubbing his back as he lifted him, Richie sighed. “Just this once, okay? But you embarrassed me just now, do you understand? I’m Papa, not Richie. Okay?” Hiccuping, Julian rubbed the tears from his eyes.

“Okay, Papa,” he said, kissing Richie’s cheek.

Richie knew he was in trouble. He couldn’t be the bad cop, and a total sucker for Eddie and Julian.

So here's the thing. When the Supergirl S3 finale aired, I absolutely hated it. And it took me nearly a year to be willing to watch it again. Because not only was I just flat-out upset because I ship Karamel and because my two favorite characters were written off the show (although at least they have each other - wait, do you hear that sound? It’s the sound of Imra screaming from the 31st century as Mon-El and Winn drive her nuts) ...

But Mon-El’s final scene? With the speech about how for a minute he thought maybe, just maybe, this was his place? Gutted me. Absolutely gutted me. We all get set off by different things, and I kid you not, that scene gave me a wicked surprise attack of homesickness and I literally cried until 4 a.m. (sometimes I hate you and your emotive acting, Chris Wood).

(complete gifset from @the-karamel-blob here)

But you know what, a year down the pike? I don't hate it. Don’t get me wrong. I'm still pretty bitter about the Karamel bait-and-switch, I still miss our outer space stray puppy terribly, and I call total BS on the "it was always a two-year arc" thing, but I actually think it was a really beautiful and meaningful send-off for Mon-El in that moment.

And anyway, it's been awhile since I've written a literal essay about Mon-El and our space puppies so LET'S CHAT. Novel on the S3 finale beneath the cut, for dash prettiness.

(also included: Why I still think Karamel is endgame, why I think Mon-El will be back, what I really think went down behind the scenes, and what Winn's appearance in S5 might mean)

Tagging @peggystormborn and @facepalming-since-chernobyl because why the heck not, you all like character/plot analysis

When Kara first creates her superhero identity, she spends a LOT of time comparing herself to Clark. And others also compare her to Clark - and she internalizes all of it.

"What, Metropolis gets him, and what does National City get? Some rookie superhero?"

"It's funny - that was the first thing he did. Save a plane, I mean."

"If she's anything like him, she's a hero."

"What are you waiting for? Superman would've blown it out by now!"

"Why do you keep criticizing Supergirl for trying to save the city? When Superman started, it was he, he, he. Him, him, him."

"My cousin didn't have a get-out-of-jail-free card when he first started. Neither should I!"

"I was supposed to be the one saving him, not the other way around. How am I supposed to really become a hero if Superman has to keep saving me?"

"If I was in Metropolis, Clark and I could protect the city and keep each other safe. And there's still so much I want to learn from him."

Now, this isn't about whether it's valid to compare Kara to Clark, or about the layers of problems that come in when you start comparing women to men - that's a whole other essay. It's about Kara's feelings, how Kara defines being a hero, and the standard she feels she needs to live up to as a hero. And since this show is built around Kara, Kara's standard for heroism become the show's definition of it, and the standards the other characters in the show should be held to in their various pursuits of goodness in the world, as well.

And that creates a very interesting comparison between Kara's arc through the first two seasons of the show (S1-S2) and Mon-El's arc in the two seasons he's appeared in thus far (S2-S3).

When Kara starts out in her journey, at the start of S1, she is in this headspace where she is constantly comparing herself to Clark. But she learns so much and accomplishes so much and shows so much strength, that by the end of S2, they have moved her to this point in her hero's journey where she is Clark's equal or superior - not only in terms of physical strength (when she defeats him after Rhea brainwashes him with silver K), but in emotional strength, as she chooses the greater good over her own personal self when she has to let Mon-El go. And her status at that point is by Clark's own admission - the person she was trying to live up to all that time.

"I think it goes far beyond 'the right thing.' I couldn't have done it, Kara. I'm humbled by you. Yeah, I'd like to think that if it came down to a choice between Lois and the world .... but I don't think I could."

So how does that relate to Mon-El's journey? Because there are a lot of parallels between Kara's hard decision at the end of S2, and his hard decision at the end of S3. And if, at the end of S2, we're supposed to see Kara as a fully-realized hero, a true champion, then that's how he's sent off as well (I'd definitely argue that Mon-El showed brave and heroic qualities even in S2, even while on a steep learning curve, but go with me here, because the parallel is really meaningful when you get to it)

Just as Kara held Clark up as her bar for being a hero, Mon-El holds Kara up as his ideal and his definition of a hero when he starts off on his journey - to the point where he eventually founds the Legion in her image.

"And whether we're together or not, being near her, it makes me a better person. It makes me the person that I want to be."

"I think we could all stand to be a little more like you. More optimistic and brave."

"I mean, you do that every day. I don't even understand it. You make it look so easy to do the right thing that you wouldn't even guess that it's that hard. But it's hard. You sacrifice a lot for everyone else, and I know I'm beginning to sound like a broken record here, but I admire you.

"I promise I'm going to be the man that you thought I could be. I promise."

You inspired me. So when I founded the Legion, I chose to use you as an example of what we could be. Of what we aspire to be."

"We base the entire philosophy of the Legion on Supergirl. Have you considered that she might have the right approach here?"

And just as Kara faces that harsh decision at the end of S2 that she needs to give Mon-El up for the greater good, Mon-El faces an identical decision at the end of S3. And, just like Kara (who made a decision Superman himself says he couldn't have made, who is a true champion), Mon-El makes that hard call.

And just as Clark told Kara when she made that hard call that he was humbled by her, validating her admiration of him, Kara gives Mon-El her hero's blessing of his decision, too. Now, I don't think these writers are particularly clever or good at continuity :P But they use the word "admire" so consistently between Karamel that I have to believe it's a deliberate choice. Mon-El tells Kara throughout S2, as he's learning, how much he admires her. And his journey takes him to a place where Kara is able to return that word to him, sincerely and meaningfully.

"There wasn't much to inspire me on Daxam." "What about the prince?" "He wasn't worth admiring. But I wanna be."

"I mean, you do that every day. I don't even understand it. You make it look so easy, to do the right thing that you wouldn't even guess that it's that hard. But it's hard. You sacrifice a lot for everyone else and I know I'm beginning to sound like a broken record here but I admire you."

"You wouldn't be the man you are, if you did. The man I admire so much."

(Tacking on to this because there’s plenty of other things to read and link to here - there was an excellent discussion we had a long time ago about Kara’s emotions and reactions during this scene where @emarasmoak and @i-am-aci01 had some great catches)

The other thing that strikes me as a parallel between Kara and Mon-El in those two season finales is the dissonance between the two of them, who have made the hard, heroic choices, and everyone else.

At the end of S2, everyone seems happy except Kara, who proceeds to isolate herself. Alex and Maggie get engaged. J'onn and M'gann are (temporarily) together. Winn and James are currently successful in their vigilante superhero forays. Clark goes home to Lois.

And at the end of S3? Mostly, our characters are happy. Kara says she's decided where her true home is, but knows her mother is safe. Winn is setting off to the future, where he knows he's important and needed. Imra has her sister back. Alex has her new role and plans to pursue parenthood. J'onn has lost his father, but is setting off on his new path. James reveals himself as Guardian. And Mon-El makes a decision out of duty that guts him. @sweeter-than put it very well: "Everyone else in this episode got an optimistic season’s end coda. Meanwhile, Mon-El is leaving the love of his life to go fight a dangerous war. ... [He] is the only character framed as being separated from his ideal destiny, where the destiny and the obligation have no middle ground."

Now we've talked about what this show wanted to tell us here. Are they saying you can't have it all - which, in Kara's case, is an inherently more complicated discussion because she's a woman? That heroes are always doomed to sacrifice? That work-life balance is a joke?

I think what's MORE IMPORTANT though, and the real message, is what Cat tells Kara (and hell, the title of the S2 finale itself). It applies in both cases. It really applies.

"You, my dear, are on a hero's journey. And yes, you have hit an obstacle, but you will soar right over it."

That's the message.

MOVING ON!

.....

I think that applying that statement to Mon-El is part of why I feel so strongly that his story isn't over yet. Because he's on a hero's journey. The story the show was telling with this character was someone evolving into a hero, someone who is a sympathetic character, someone we're supposed to root for. And how could the final picture of him we have at the moment, where he's so sad and so weighted down, be our final picture of that character? Yeah, the innermost cave, belly of the whale, whatever you want to call it, is part of the hero's journey. But just as Kara goes into those depths and then emerges to find triumph and happiness again, I have to believe they're not going to leave another character they spent so much time investing in that unhappy. We're going to see him again, and they'll give him a happy ending. Or, if they can't work out another appearance for him, because we're talking about real people with a lot of moving parts, we'll get some sort of confirmation he's happy (more on that in a second). They're not going to leave him at loose ends if they can help it.

Now when I talk about them investing in the character - think not just about the storytelling, with this slow burn they had going with Karamel throughout S3, but about the level of promotion during that season, especially the back half. They had Mon-El in the CW midseason sizzle reel, and in a number of promotional posters/photos. They built up to the red-and-blue suit SO MUCH, and why do all of that if it was something you were only going to use for a literal handful of episodes? Some of those pieces of evidence, plus the slow burn/abrupt shift storytelling, plus how open-ended they left things with the relationship, makes me call TOTAL BS on the "it was always a two-season arc thing," and makes me keep believing Karamel is still endgame.

IMHO, Karamel has always been written with that endgame-ish type of storytelling - enemies-to-lovers trope, true love's kiss, spending so much time re-building the relationship between them, etc, etc, etc. You all know what I'm talking about. ((And please note, even though this could be another essay entirely, just because I think they're endgame doesn't mean I think neither character should ever be in another relationship again. I think you LEARN things from every relationship you're in, and Mon-El and Kara were both relatively inexperienced relationship-wise when they got together - Mon-El came from a planet of hedonists where he had flings, not relationships, and Kara had crushes that she couldn't really act on because broken noses, amirite? There were things I genuinely loved about Mon-El and Imra. And I'm not freaked about the possibility of a midgame LI for Kara - it wouldn't lessen my feelings about this being endgame))

Anyway - the story they were telling throughout S3 pointed to Karamel reuniting. They really dialed it up through the final episodes with the robot-cockblocked conversation on Argo (actually everything on Argo - Mon-El with the kid and Kara's heart eyes, the double date, etc, etc, etc), Mon-El pulling out the necklace at opportune moments to remind the viewers he never forgot her, Kara’s multiple conversations with Alura about him (there’s a cut scene from the finale, as well, where Alura tells her that love stories are never simple), Mon-El’s conversation with Winn about not being able to lose her again. They point at it, and then do an abrupt about-face in the finale. I really think that they were heading toward a reunion. We’ll never know exactly what happened behind the scenes, and I know people have different theories, but my gut feeling is that they were discussing behind the scenes whether or not Chris would be back for S4, the writers headed toward their planned ending (a Karamel reunion and a relationship in S4) while hedging their bets with the slow burn, and Chris ultimately made the decision to leave late in the game, and so the writers threw the switch in the finale.

Again, this is entirely me speculating, but I think that Chris made the call to leave not only because he's a multifaceted person who had other behind-the-scenes things he wanted to pursue in the field, but because he walks the walk with his own mental health, and we all know there is a LOT of bullshit that flies around with this show on social media, etc. I'm reading a LOT between the lines here, but the S3 finale aired on June 18, 2018, so I'm assuming they were doing some editing and locking down of the things in May. Chris posted this the first week of May 2019. Excerpts -

"Well look at that: it’s Mental Health Month again! And what interesting timing for me, personally… let’s talk about it. This year has tested me in so many ways." "And while you’re at it, use this occasional toxic and negative platform for something positive and good." "Sending love and kindness to everyone, even the trolliest of trolls out there."

BUT ANYWAY.

Faced with the resources they had and the information they had, the writers still chose to leave things SO OPEN between Karamel. The original draft of the finale - which was shared by @emarasmoak + @snarkymonel ages ago, had a line from Mon-El, “Part of me will always mourn that our paths did not align … But I will always cherish knowing you.” That, to me, suggests a much more FINAL goodbye - and that line was cut, in favor of what we got - where there wasn't really a goodbye, because it might not be one. And the ring and the “In case you ever need me” is definitely a door left WIDE the hell open. The ring is a deus ex machina in case they ever want to use the character again.

My gut feeling - and again, with no inside information - is that Chris didn't want to be a regular anymore, for a number of reasons, but that he didn't leave on bad circumstances, and that he'd be happy to do a guest appearance because he wouldn't be walking into an ONGOING shitstorm (especially if it was something toward the end of the series run).

And regarding the other news we're starting to get about S5: I don't think the fact that Winn and Mon-El left together, and we've heard about Winn coming back but not Mon-El, means he WON'T be back. They could be dribbling out information a bit at a time to keep people interested as a marketing strategy - the Crisis crossover is the most ambitious thing they've EVER done, and you know they'll want to keep ramping up the excitement up all the way from now until December. They could have finished negotiating with Jeremy first while they're still working on Chris for that, or for another event down the line. Supergirl has a lot of "big event" potential coming up, between the crossover, the milestone 100th episode, Melissa's debut as a director, and they've got to be thinking ahead down the line to the eventual end of the series. All of those are things they'll want to really build up excitement for and maybe have some familiar faces around for.

I DO believe that Winn's appearance will tell us something about if, or how, they intend to use Mon-El again at any point, however. Look, the two of them are close. I wasn't that cranky when Brainy didn't mention Mon-El much last season - I got the impression they were more coworkers than friends, things were tense between them for a solid chunk of time over Brainy's role in Imra's secret plan, and then there was some SERIOUS snark thrown between them in the S3 finale in a cut scene (as for Brainy's one mention of Mon-El and his comment about "microagressions," we all dissected that here). I will be cranky if Winn, who has always been a close friend to Mon-El and is coming directly back to the story from working with Mon-El, doesn't mention him. But again, I think that mention will tell us a lot about the future of the character. He could tell the Superfriends (and thus, the audience) that Mon-El has reconciled with Imra, or has moved on to someone else (side note - in the comic canon, Mon-El's pet name for ShadowLass is "Shady" and I think that's adorable). He could even have some sort of tragic news about him, which seems less probable to me, because why go through the trouble of bringing him back from the dead in the S3 finale and then leaving things so open-ended if you were going to kill him offscreen? On the other hand, if Winn tells Kara Mon-El says hey, or he misses you (she misses him too!) or if they have some sort of heartfelt conversation about him, then that's obviously a positive sign.

I mean, who am I kidding, I have epic trust issues from their bait-and-switch with this story and I don’t trust any of the writers/showrunners as far as I can throw them and I am about three inches from FLIPPING OUT over this entire situation :P But I don’t feel so bad after some deep analysis.

"Hahaha. A friend pointed this out. W online shops too!" What does this even mean?! I don't know anyone in 2020 who doesn't online shop besides my 80 year old grandparents because they refuse to learn how to use a computer 😂 I don't get how Will, a 30 something year old man, online shopping is worthy enough for Abby to comment on it. I'm sure Chris does it too. And Darren.

On Nov 5, Darren wrote this post and the cc fandom lost their shit.    

They decided that organizing 10 costumes for multiple events in two different states for two different people was not worthy of acknowledgment- especially since they wore several purchased costumes. They spent the next 30-ish days mocking her “online shopping skills” like the petty idiots they are and now they bring it up two months later. 

Anonymous asked: this is funny, C posted a photo of beard, D posted photos with the beard. Almost like they were sitting next to each other and saying “ok ok I will say this”

ajw720 answered: The only difference, C controls his SM and the bearding, D does not, but they knew the Halloween post was coming when C posted his belated b-day wishes (not that he acknowledged they were late).  

It really is, if you can remove the very human, tragic element, like a script for a really bad D Movie.  C posts “Happy Birthday, Babe!” a day after the man’s actual b-day and “D” praises his fake bride for MAKING TEN costumes.  Sure praise her if she actually designed them and sat with her sewing machine.  No, she went online and ordered things (I doubt she even went to a store).   And 3 couple costumes were cheap frankly.  The only thought was how narcissistic she could be in their execution (as @flowersintheattic254pointed out even the Mario costume had  a reason, it was a reminder of Japan and the fake encagement by referring to the ad that paid for their trip there).

And seriously how are people not questioning that she spent the entirety of her month picking TEN costumes?  Who has time for this?  I know, i know, a person whose only role in life is to play fake plus one.

I am just so tired by D in particular being utterly dragged down by the useless dead weight by his side and his team’s sole ambition to promote her and make her sound like a decent person.  

If they wanted to praise her, maybe they should have forced her to participate in the zero waste initiative instead of sitting drinking by the pool or have her volunteer to help young girls who have been kicked out of their homes, or have been raped.  Or pick any cause and truly volunteer her time to promote it.  If she is not going to actually get a job and pursue a career, please force her to do something that is actually of value and contribute something good to the world. But to praise her for picking TEN costumes?  

Praise that comes from a man who this year alone won three awards, is starring in a show he created and wrote the music for, has his first big movie premiere this week, is exec producer and star of a huge show on N/etflix, just announced his starring role with 2 A++ lists actors next spring on Broadway, celebrated the 5th anniversary of the festival he created, volunteered his time for the zero waste initiative, performed at several charity events, and was just yesterday name limited series actor of the decade.  Where is the praise for him from his “bride”?  He at least deserves it.

How do they not see how ridiculous it is for someone with D’s accomplishments in 2019 alone praise a person for purchasing TEN costumes for Halloween?  And stans, how do you accept that this is right or normal.  You really know nothing about him and have such little respect for him as a person if you continue to accept the character his idiotic team has created on his behalf.  It is so far from the person he is and that he generally holds himself out to be when given the opportunity.  

This isn’t about being a “gay fetishist” or “hating woman” this is about wanting for D to be fairly and accurately represented and no longer forced to participate in this stupid, life sucking game to promote a person that contributes absolutely nothing to the world.  If you want to have a strong female role model, there are so many, i’ve talked about a few in the past few days (thus far Nancy, Lea, and Phoebe) and will continue to do so, but please stop worshiping a person whose sole reason you are speaking about her is her connection to D, even if you refuse to accept it is fake.  

klainecentric Finished reading the funniest ig story of the day, the qween being praised for sitting in front of either a sewing machine or computer...bravo your majesty qween....your my hero well done.👏👏. And all I can think of is how irrelevant the statement D made about being an emotional horder, being a very private person and finally D saying he's lazy when it comes to social media, I'm internally screaming in frustration because yeah we know D wouldn't have written a post praising that lazy good for nothing waste of space but he's coming across as a lier and it's extremely damaging to his character as a person. I absolutely hate lying and every time another "private" moment is posted to the world is another small piece that's chipped away from what D has originally stated about privacy. PBB, nobody cares about your cheap arse highly flammable costumes you buy online, did you forget about your piano baby adult strip club. I'm sure there are still plenty of people out there you can hire to rub and flaunt their flanges all over the beer taps, why don't you keep busy on that instead. If you want to make costumes, I'm sure you can sew some mighty fine titty tassels together. It'll be cheap nasty, sound familiar.

souly So, let me get this straight. We should all praise a person for going online, looking up different costumes in online stores, putting those in their shopping basket and hitting “buy”? Because I do that at least once a week with other stuff. Do I get praised for that now? Pretty please? I’m doing good work there and buy a lot of stuff, therefore I must be the best person ever!

Let’s start with one of my fav new shirts. (Excuse the grainy quality. I had to quickly edit it for privacy reasons. :p And yes, that’s a butterfly mirror.)

The rest are behind the cut to save your dash from drowning in too many pictures. ;)

ajw720: And I love the Emmy quote as it was an absolute reference to his character who was a psychopath. Pretty telling if you ask me. But that reference is over their heads.

And pretty much the only one. Guess saying he’s a ball and chain kind of guy isn’t romantic. They can’t even take pooping exes as he clearly steered the conversation away from her. Lovely lady of many moons? Nah she sounds like a stranger. Saying nothing changes after marriage? Sounds boring. It’s a struggle. But hey she’s an excellent online shopper that he done got hitched to!!!

i was also strongly inspired by THIS gifset (please watch it it is gorgeous thank you)

The bed creaked uncomfortably as you turned to peek at the alarm clock on the bedside table. 2:24, it read. You sighed as you slowly sat up, rubbing your face. You had been wide awake the whole night and felt like there was nothing that could help you. Desperate to be as quiet as possible, you got up, slipping on your robe before making your way to the kitchen. 

Stumbling through the pitch dark apartment, your quiet ow’s echoed through the otherwise silent room as you tripped over a pair of boots. You made a mental note to scold Ben for scattering his things all over the place when he wakes up. You felt for the light switch on the wall as before finally reaching it, the quiet buzzing of the lamp taking over the silence in the kitchen. 

The sound of claws clattering on the hardwood floor caught your attention. 

“Hey, girl,” you whispered to Frankie, squatting down to give the puppy a scratch. Wagging her tail excitedly, she motioned at the rubber ball in the corner. You shook your head. “Shouldn’t you be asleep? It’s late, buddy,” you quietly spoke, scratching the back of Frankie’s head. “No, I’m not going to play with you now,” you continued. You could swear you saw her expression fell as you stood up again, shaking your head. The dog made a whiny noise. “No,” you ordered. Frankie huffed as she turned around, making her way to her bed in the living room, eyeing you sourly as she plopped down. You chuckled. 

Downing a glass of water first, you opened the fridge, only to find some leftover pudding and the chicken rice Ben had made last night. Neither seeming appetising enough to eat, you opened the deep freeze. Your face lit up. A whole box of ice cream! You mouthed a quiet yes! before taking the box out of the fridge and placing it onto the counter. You opened the dishware cupboard only to be disappointed after your glorious finding – no bowls. No bowls except for one at the very top of the cupboard on the highest shelf. You sighed – you couldn’t reach it. All the other bowls were safely tucked into the dishwasher that you had loaded earlier that night, only to forget about it later and leave it as it was. You cursed to yourself. Feeling too lazy to simply get one out of the dishwasher and hand wash it instead, you decided to climb onto the counter to get the bowl. Determined on your quest, you hadn’t noticed the glass you drank from earlier on the edge of the counter, barely an inch from your foot. Before you could react, the glass was smashed on the floor in a thousand pieces. You instinctively let out a sharp yelp, which was followed by a quiet curse.

“Y/N!”

Ben’s voice echoed through the apartment as he ran through the kitchen door, quickly assessing the situation. Making sure you were okay and that it was not a robber breaking the window to get inside, he visibly relaxed. 

“I’m sorry, I- it- it was an accident!” you exclaimed, carefully climbing off the counter, avoiding the pieces of broken glass on the floor.

“That’s fine, just gave me a bit of a scare,” Ben chuckled. He gave you a hand and helped you on the floor. “What are you doing, if I may ask? It’s three in the morning, woman!”

“Couldn’t sleep, got out of bed, had a glass of water, left the glass on the counter, decided to have  ice cream but there was only one bowl on the top shelf, climbed to get it, pushed the glass off the counter and yelled,” you spoke, scratching the back of your head.

“Okay… Are you alright?” Ben looked at you carefully. A quiet cry came from the floor. “Hey girl, it’s fine, take it easy,” he smiled at Frankie, who looked a bit distressed by the situation. 

“Yeah, I’m good. Think Frankie’s more upset than I am,” you chuckled, bending down and giving the dog a scratch.

“She’s always been frightened by loud noises. Bit of a pain on New Year’s Eve,” he said squatting down next to you, petting Frankie. “Yeah, you are. Big pain in the ass, I’m telling you. I still love you though. Yeah, I do.”

Leaving Ben baby talking to Frankie, you got up and started to clean the glass. Fortunately, the seemingly thousand pieces weren’t thousand at all. Making sure there were no tiny glass pieces after picking up the bigger ones, you threw them away, cleaning the surface with a broom just in case. 

“Are you still up to that bowl of ice cream?” 

Somewhat startled by Ben’s voice behind you, you turned around. He was standing by the counter with two bowls. 

“We better be quick because it’s starting to melt,” he continued, casually licking away the droplets of melted ice cream. “Like my heart for you.”

You let out a hearty laugh. “I don’t even need to eat the ice cream to get a cavity from all this sweetness.”

Through the Veil | Epilogue

• Pairing: Yoongi x Jungkook • Genre: Angst / Fluff | demon!AU (→  Gifset Trailer) • Words: 4k | Co-Writer: Cat @cassiavioletblue​ ↳ (AO3)

↳ Jungkook is pretty sure that he is a normal human being, but he is also sure that this book, he got from his grandma, is a cookbook. So when it turns out that the words he’s reciting are not to cook some tasty meal but to summon something from the depth of the underworld - then maybe there are a few more suprises for him in stock...or just how Buddy finally found his way back home. « previous chapter | masterlist | next chapter »

„How could she deny me?” Hades whined, throwing his hands up, shaking his head in disappointment, while he was walking up and down his large thrown sale. His footsteps echoing through the large room, that was poorly decorated, only his dark throne stood tall on a platform, with a crystal chandelier hanging from the black ceiling. Mumbling to himself, the god didn’t notice when the door opened an inch. Only the sudden sound of paws tapping on the stone floor and a wet snout pushing against his knee made Hades look down at the creature in front of him. “Oh, did you finally decide to come back?”

The god cocked his head to the side, just like the hellhound did and kneeled to reach out for him and pat his head. “My heart is broken,” Hades started talking to the hellhound puppy, who was looking at him rather confused and with big eyes, “She denied my date because she had work to do. Can you believe that? Refusing to go out…with me? Hades? The god of the underworld? Her lover? Her everything?” The god sighed deeply, “And look at me…talking to a hellhound, hoping it understands the pain of longing for someone while you can’t reach them. I might be finally going insane…”

The pup was pawing at Hades leg, barking out a low, sulky sound that spelled out clearly that he was bored. Yoongi and Jungkook had been gone for too long now and even though that other demon had tried to get him and even tried to bribe him with food to get a better look at him it wasn’t the same. No one cuddled like Jungkookie - and even though Yoongi pretended to not like him in front of others he had always left the best pieces of meat on his plate for him and patted his head and told him what a good boy he was. He yipped happily at the memory, scratching his claws over the marble. But Hades was too busy whining about Persephone.

The hellhound would have rolled his eyes if he could. It was like a play, Hades loved Persephone, Persephone loved Hades, everyone in the underworld and across the borders of hell knew that. And still both of them behaved like teenagers, always a game of who could pretend the best not to care, always push and pull, push and pull...It would have been funny if the underworld and all their residents weren’t pulled into it every time. A heartbroken or angry Persephone wasn’t an especially pleasant experience, and neither was Hades.

Buddy tapped his tail against the marble, a whiny sound coming out of his throat. He wanted to cuddle. And some real attention. Someone who played with him and told him he was a good boy. He wasn’t like the other hounds who were satisfied with sleeping in their grotto while keeping to themselves until they were needed. It was so boring! He wanted to see stuff. New stuff. And be petted a lot. That was probably the reason why Buddy didn’t stay long with his owner again. Hades was way too occupied with himself and ruling the underworld than to play with him, no matter how much the hellhound tried. And playing with himself was only fun for so long. With a wag of his tail and a bark he went out the door like a flash, little paws drumming against the slippery floors of Hades place. The underworld was much more fun to explore. And maybe he would find a trace of his two favorite people…

After sniffing on at least twenty flowers Buddy trotted through the garden in front of Persephone’s palace sniffing on as much as he could and barking at any small creature that hopped or flew away from him. He had tried to find the demon and the human before, searching through the cave that Yoongi had called his home. The hellhound had been waiting for days at the entry – but no one came back. Did they really leave him alone like that?

The hound whined loudly, howling, making the guards around the palace look at him. He barked a few times, desperate to try and communicate. If he could just speak their language…

“Who in hell is making this horrible kind of…Oh! It’s you.” Persephone had opened the door of her balcony, yelling angrily down the balustrade when she saw the little pup who had sat down right in the middle of one of her flower beds. She loved her flowers. But the pup looked to cute sitting on his little butt like that, paws stretched out, so you could see the little beans that were his toes. She sighed deeply. Of course, she knew what was up. Buddy wasn’t your ordinary hellhound and if he didn’t manage to lose the naivety and cuteness then he would forever be miserable as a hellhound. She had thought that the problem was only temporary and that being with the other hounds would teach him how to act and what to feel. Apparently, that hadn’t worked at all. She had never seen him so whiny before. If any one of her servants would have interrupted her work like that or - goddess forbid - would have dared to step into her flower beds than she would have condemned them to the most horrible fate that she could think of. But how could she be mad and some wet nosed, puppy eyed fluff that was simply searching for company and affection?

She sighed, shaking her head with a little fond smile on her lips. “Let the hellhound in,” She ordered the guards and retreated into her room, waiting until the door opened and she could hear the tapping sound of paws against the floor. The goddess waved her guards off and only when the door closed, she kneeled and reached her hand out for the little pup to sniff on.

“You can’t forget about them, huh?” She said quietly, scratching his fur right behind his ear, “But it’s been so long…you should be hunting for souls and not be whining…Buddy, right? That’s what they called you?” The goddess chuckled. Only someone like Jungkook could give a hellhound a name. Persephone had to admit, that she was starting to miss the little angel boy. It was nice to have some light company around and in her palace that neither was one of her maids, nor some guards.

Buddy was cocking his head to the side, enjoying the ear scratches. He still wasn’t completely satisfied. He knew that his favorite people had last been here. And then they had vanished. First Jungkook and then Yoongi. He wanted Persephone to bring them back. Which he told her with lots of arguments and reasons on why it would be better to have them around. To her it probably sounded like lots of demanding barking though. Language barriers could be a real buzzkill. One especially loud bark made the goddess fall onto her bottom, throwing her hands up in defense. “Okay, okay, I got it!” She said with a laugh, “You miss your owners, right? Not the grumpy little hell king who’s probably sulking, right?” The goddess giggled at the thought of Hades being mad at her. “I can’t bring your friends back, though,” She shrugged her shoulders, pulling her legs in to look at the hellhound with a faint smile, “Why don’t you stay with Hoseo-“

The goddess got interrupted by another loud bark and reached out to pat his head, “Yeah…he was a bit of a meanie to the human boy, right? You still haven’t forgiven him?” Buddy shook his whole fur from head to tail as if he had gotten wet and was trying to shake the droplets of water off him. He deemed that answer enough.

Persephone looked at the hound, leaning her head to the side as she was thinking. A hound, that was way too sensitive, who wasn’t even fulfilling his work to hunt for damned souls wasn’t very useful for her. It would only spark the idea that more demons could demand to follow their emotions, their heart and its longing. It wasn’t good if her folk knew that someone of her followers was considered weak. So, this really didn’t need much thinking on her part. She reached out for the puppy, ruffling his fur before she said with a smile “Do you want to visit your friends?”

Just the mention of Yoongi and Jungkook made him wag his tail, so much that his whole lower half was in motion. Yes, he wanted to visit them, preferably right now immediately at once on the spot right off. He was doing a little “dance”, tapping left and right when he realized that this hadn’t been a simple question but that the goddess was getting up, obviously preparing to use her power for some sort of trick. She pointed one finger and motioned the hellhound to sit, when Persephone stood tall over the puppy. “Maybe you have never meant to be a hellhound after all,” She murmured, before the goddess closed her eyes and placed her hands softly on each side of the hound’s head, who was sticking his tongue out, panting and looking at her with big eyes. Leaning in, Buddy gave her a wet kiss with his snout, then licking all over her face, making the goddess cringe and snap her eyes open again. “Buddy! Concentrate, you want to see your friends? Then sit still,” She said a little annoyed, but on the inside, she was way too fond of the cute little hound, placing her hands back on him, while she was murmuring some words Buddy couldn’t understand.

It made him feel funny though, as if someone was ruffling his fur all directions at once. He shook his fur again, shaking his little butt as usual - when he realized that something was different.

There was no tail to wag. At least not a big hellhound one. His new one was fluffy and cottony and way, way smaller. In his surprise he jumped a little, making a real, big extraordinary bounce, as if his legs were on elastic springs. Just that these kind of springs must be able to cross dimensions. Because one second, he was a hellhound in the underworld - and one leap in the air later he was something different somewhere else.

…

Jungkook was humming to himself, while cleaning the dishes from the day before. He had finally time to do so, while Yoongi was still working his shift. The other would probably come back home late tonight when Jungkook was already asleep. The human giggled, thinking how Yoongi loved to pull him in, mumbling something grumpily before he was out like a light each time. Yoongi had been adapting to everything so fast and Jungkook couldn’t be any prouder. He sighed, finally being finished with the household, when he leaned against the kitchen counter. Looking out of the window, the human cursed when he saw that it was already getting darker and he had forgotten to bring the laundry in. With a shuffling step, Jungkook got the basket from the bathroom and opened the door to his terrace. Piece by piece, he took the laundry off, folding it and placing it neatly into the little basket.

Buddy turned in circles, trying to get used to this new form of movement. Sometimes there was something long and fluffy moving in his range of vision, just what he could see out of the corner of his eye and strangely he had a feeling like it belonged to him. it must come from his head. He twitched his ears in thought again and saw the long furry thing again right away. He shook his head, ignoring the feel that his ears were a bit longer than normal. First things first. He needed to find out where exactly he was right now.

Buddy hopped in a circle, trying to orientate himself when he saw a familiar figure being busy with some freshly washed laundry. Even though he would recognize Jungkook anywhere the human must have changed quite a bit since they last saw each other. He must have grown a lot! Compared to before when he ha still ben hound size Jungkook now had become huge! Or...or he had become smaller.

Jungkook was just about to pick up the basket, when he noticed something from the corner of his eyes and he froze completely. He couldn’t believe his eyes. There was a bunny hopping around in circles in the middle of his garden. Jungkook couldn’t help but smile, scrunching up his nose in the process. Yoongi would never believe him, if he told him about this tonight. The bunny was really big and didn’t look like a wild animal. He ripped off some grass and reached out his hand. “Look, I got something for you,” Jungkook whispered, hoping that the big bunny was used to humans and therefore would accept his offer of fresh grass. Maybe someone was looking for it? Maybe it was lost? Or searching for his owner? Or maybe it was a wild animal after all and would hop away the second it would notice the human.

When Jungkook saw him and immediately came closer, Buddy couldn’t contain his joy. He leaped into the air from happiness, doing little saltos and bouncing like he was jumping on a trampoline. After he had worked off some of the pent up emotions like this he hopped closer, eyeing the grass that Jungkook was holding out for him. What in hell’s names should he do with that? He eyed it closer and realized that it looked surprisingly delicious. Still, his happiness to have found Jungkook was bigger than his appetite so instead of going for the grass he jumped right into Jungkook’s arms, trying to lick his face and giving him tiny little bunny kisses instead.

“Oh,” Jungkook fell back, bunny in his arms, who was heavier than he thought. “Hello cutie,” The younger laughed, feeling tickled by the little kisses and licks from the bunny. Yoongi would definitely not believe this! The bunny was behaving out of the ordinary, first jumping and doing saltos – which Jungkook had never seen a bunny do before like this, most animals were more cautious around humans – and then cuddling him?

He laughed happily, caressing over the bunny’s fur. “You’re a weird behaving little...or wait big bunny,” Jungkook chuckled, but didn’t mind, still patting it softly, “Yoongi won’t believe it when I tell him someone as cute as you visited me today.” He nudged the wet little nose of the bunny lightly with the tip of his finger, making it shake his fur. “Are you looking for someone?” Jungkook asked, not realizing who was sitting in his arms right now, only seeing a big bunny that was seeking his warmth and cuddles.

Buddy was happier than ever when Jungkook cuddled him like this. In his hound form Jungkook had tried a lot but he never managed to cuddle him up completely in his arms like this. The closest they’d gotten to something similar was whenever Buddy had lied down next to Jungkook when the younger was about to fall asleep, his body about the same size as Jungkook’s with the boy’s arm thrown around his side. Like this however he could bury his nose in Jungkook’s neck while being wrapped up in a warm embrace. It was heaven.

“You’re the cutest bunny,” Jungkook giggled, when it’s little wet nose was tickling him. He was sitting there, bunny in his embrace, ruffling up the fur for a little while. Only then he pulled the animal from him and looked at it with a smile. “Do you have an owner, bunny?” Jungkook asked and gazed into the bunnies eyes, when something made him cock his head in interest. Something seemed so familiar.

Buddy tapped his little paws quickly against Jungkook’s chest, drumming a random rhythm against it that would hopefully remind Jungkook that he was still Buddy, no matter what form. It was absolutely incredible to him that the human didn’t recognize him right away. As a hellhound he would have recognized Jungkook in any form whatsoever, no matter if he was a human or fish. His partly-angel-soul shone through every shell that was holding it.

“Wha…what, why are you…,” Jungkook stopped mid-sentence looking at the bunny and the way it pawed against his chest…just like…Buddy had used to do it, just with more strength and bigger paws. Then the young man looked at the Bunny again, pulling it closer to look at its eyes. There was a light lilac shimmer to them, it glistened and Jungkook gasped.

“Buddy?” He asked in total disbelief, “Is…is that you? What…why are you? My buddy…” Jungkook pulled the big bunny onto his chest again, cuddling it tight. He couldn’t believe that. This big bunny wasn’t just any bunny it was his hellhound. But why wouldn’t Buddy show himself in his hellhound form?

“Why are you a bunny…,” Jungkook chuckled, happy tears falling down his cheeks when he pressed them against the soft fur of the animal. Buddy yipped happily when Jungkook finally recognized him - just that it didn’t really sound like a hound’s voice and he got surprised there for a second. Luckily Jungkook didn’t seem to mind he just hugged him tighter. Buddy hopped out of his arms when the boy let go of him to tell him with lots of hopping an gestures that he was here because Persephone had allowed him to go up into the human world and find them and that she had turned him into a bunny so he could stay with them without any difficulties (the bigger the animal the bigger the risks of landlords not allowing them), he was still big enough so that he could get his beloved cuddles which would have been difficult if he was a mouse also bunnies were more common as pets and they were cute and… he flopped up and down, happily chatting Jungkook up who didn’t seem to understand a word of what he was saying. So, in the end Buddy just hopped back on Jungkook's lap, exhausted from talking and also the long travel.

Buddy would just wait for Yoongi to arrive then, the demon knew enough tricks to talk to other creatures and even if he had been turned human buddy hoped that he had kept the basics. And if that didn’t work out as well he would learn the human’s way of communication in those tiny sigils that they printed into books and would tap them onto paper with paws and ink if he had to. Although he hoped that wouldn’t be necessary because getting ink out of his beautiful white bunny fur would be a hassle. Content with his decision Buddy closed his eyes and decided that after everything he definitely deserved a nap.

Jungkook held the bunny tight for a while, just soothing over its soft fur. His thoughts were going back to the underworld and Jungkook wondered who had sent the hellhound or if Buddy found his own way to them. Either way it was perfect.

After a while, it was starting to get colder outside and darker. So Jungkook softly woke the bunny with a kiss on the top of its head, and then he let him down again. He reached for the basket of laundry, before opening his door the apartment again. “Hop in, Buddy,” Jungkook said happily, waiting for the bunny to do just as he said before the angel boy closed the door behind himself again. He was watching Buddy fondly, when the bunny was looking around its new home. “I need to sort the laundry and then we can both…,” He yawned cutely, “Cuddle some more while waiting for Yoongi. What do you think, Buddy?”

Buddy was too busy running around the house to answer but it was pretty clear to everyone involved that he would come cuddle later. Their home was amazing, there were fluffy carpets to lie and roll in (he had already tried, rolling from one side to the other, stretching his bunny body until he looked like he was twice his size), wooden chairs and table legs to nibble on and lots of cuddly places where he could lie comfortably, be it the sofa or a velveteen cushion on one of the chairs. He loved it here already. And if he put in a little bit of effort (jumping from the waste bin onto the chair, onto the table, onto the countertop) then he could actually reach the fruit bowl in the kitchen in which there were lots of delicacies waiting for him.

Jungkook was putting the laundry into the closet, still not believing that Buddy was back. But the little taps of paws and hopping sounds made him realize that this had actually happened. Buddy was here with them…just in bunny form. Everything the bunny did, just was so Buddy-like, there was no way this was a confusion. Jungkook bit his lip, thinking if Persephone had actually been so kind as to send the hellhound off. Why was she showing so much kindness towards him? The human yawned, before he retreated into the bathroom to brush his teeth, while Buddy was hopping around his feet. It was already late, and it wouldn’t take long for Yoongi to come back soon, but Jungkook just couldn’t stay awake any longer. He was so tired.

So, he laid down. “Buddy!” He called out for the bunny, motioning for him to hop onto the bed with him and into his arms. “You can sleep here tonight,” Jungkook mumbled, “But we should by you lots of new things tomorrow. Something where you can sleep, some food and toys.” He caressed over the soft fur, nuzzling his nose in the thick fur. “I missed you, Buddy.”

Buddy nuzzled Jungkook right back, nudging his head against the boy’s arm until Jungkook lifted it a little and he could snuggle under it, just like he was used to doing. He yawned, showing off his bunny teeth and rosy tongue before stretching out rabbit like and sighing contently. This was it. This was what he had been missing.

When Yoongi came home he normally heard some kind of noise or there was some other signs that Jungkook was around, “Babe, I’m home.” Jungkook’s shoes were standing in the hallway but there was complete silence answering him. “Baby? Are you there?” When there was still no answer he carefully went to look in the bathroom (he had found Jungkook asleep while taking a hot bath once) - when he still didn’t find him he got worried. Not for long though as he quickly noticed the sleeping figure in the bedroom. He smiled fondly at the younger’s relaxed form.  Then he saw that Jungkook was holding something. It looked like a plushy - if not for the slight movements in the bunny’s body every time he was breathing in or out. Intrigued Yoongi got closer - and then had to suppress a laugh.

“Buddy? What are you doing here?” The bunny-hound didn’t even react to his whisper so deeply was he asleep in Jungkook’s arms. It was as clear as day to Yoongi that this was the hellhound and only with delay did he realize that as a human - a 100% human being - he shouldn’t see that so clearly. Apparently, he hadn’t been completely stripped of his powers. Just like Jungkook hadn’t been taken away from him for long or like they hadn’t lost Buddy. Or how he could still heal. A thankful smile stole its way on his face and carefully, very carefully did he get up on the bed to lie down besides his love. He had been a little afraid at first that maybe he wouldn’t be able to live a human life. That he maybe would miss something. But honestly after just a few weeks he could see himself live like this for the rest of his mortal life. And he had never been so happy.

The end. (for real now...)

A/N: Surprise!!! Did you think we let Buddy stay in the underworld without his new found owners? ;; Even a hellhound pup deserves his happy end. Thank you again for all the love and support we got with this story. It meant so much to us. We’re still pretty much overwhelmed with all the responses and love! Agrhrgrh you guys are the best!

[imnotasuperhero]

Guess who’s trash and wrote a Bechloe fic instead of working for Staubrey week?

You’re right, this bitch did.

But I promise it wasn’t intended! I just saw this gifset and I just... I can’t help it guys, okay? It just happened so fast that I didn’t even realize I was on my third glass of whine when I finished it. So pardon my mistakes...

Anyhow, I hope you enjoy this, my beautiful weirdos (: And don’t forget to hmu if you have some prompt

Title: This is gonna take me down (but this is getting good now)

Pairing: Bechloe

Type: Crack, I guess? Fluff

Summary: Let’s just say that Beca is a useless gay and Chloe is this Bitchy Ginger™ captain of the Bellas.

Wordcount: 1149

Read it on Ao3

“What happens Shortie?” Beca swore Fat Amy was across the room just a second ago. There was no way she could teleport just like that. “Ginger Captain scares you?”

“Pffft. I’m not scared, I’m just… I don’t want to have another argument.” Was Beca’s response. She had a façade to uphold, after all.

“If that’s what makes you feel good…”

“Can you girls pay attention, please?” Chloe interrupted them with a hard look that honestly, could make you shit in your pants right there. Beca felt chills run through her body at the bitterness in the words.

“Sorry,” was all she could respond with. She didn’t dare to look at Amy, she already knew the look on her face due to years of friendship. And she wasn’t in the mood.

When Stacie said that joining the best group of acapella of all times would be amazing, she forgot to mention that the hottest ginger ever was a fucking bitch that forbid talking on rehearsals unless it was strictly for competition purposes. And that falling for the captain was a big no-no. Not that she did, God no. That’d be like jumping into a void without a parachute.

It was more like a teeny tiny crush maybe? God, she wasn’t even sure if Bitchy Ginger™ got her all worked up or if it was just the fact that she couldn’t tell her in the face how much she sucked. Maybe was both? Ah, sweet baby Jesus was she screwed. Oh, dammit, she was a fucking bottom! No. This couldn’t be right. She was a giver, for fuck’s sake! She was all-

“MITCHELL!” That voice tinted with angriness spoke again. “I have to lock up. Practice’s over.” Beca swallowed hard on herself and gathered her stuff to practically run out of the auditorium with a lame “See you tomorrow, Chloe.”

Really? Chloe got in her nerves most of the time and all she got to say was a lame goodbye? Where was the badass Beca Mitchell? She was way too cool to be smitten over a certain Chloe Beale, right? Not even Bianca from her high school soccer team got her that useless. And the girl was an eleven on a scale up to ten. Goddamit, she was losing her muchness.

///

“Oh god, please not again,” Beca thought to herself when Eternal Flame started to play in the background. Didn’t she had enough with listening to it in every rehearsal that her favorite radio station had to pick that song for their “Oldie of the day”? But of course it could only go downhill and she’d think of Chloe and those baby blues that seemed to light a fire long ago extinguished. A fire that only seemed to grow up with every little gaze the redhead threw her way. Even if she could swear it wasn’t a good kind of look, she couldn’t help but feel like an excited teenager every time Chloe looked at her with such intensity in her eyes?

“I don’t understand. But honestly, I’m not sure I want to either,” she whispered to herself before trying to concentrate back in her philosophy essay. God, she hates it.

///

For the first time in her life, Beca got early to rehearsals. “Maybe Chronos isn’t that son of a bitch after all,” she thought to herself when she found an empty auditorium. She decided to check this day like a win despite the D she got in her essay. Her dad wouldn’t be that disappointed, anyway.

“You don’t understand, Bree. Everything looks bad. We’re not gonna make it,” Beca heard Chloe talking and she felt her heart ache at the sadness on the voice. “This would be much easier with you here.”

Beca didn’t intend to pry on her captain’s conversation. Really. She just wanted to know if she was alright, that was it.

“I swear. The misfits are so amateur that even a savage puppy could do it better… No, I can’t… Yes, I will… Okay, I love you.”

Beca rapidly started to walk out of her hiding spot but of course, she was that lucky.

“Are you prying on me, Mitchell?” Beca felt the blood drain out of her body. Literally.

“I wans’t… I just got early in here and I heard you talk-”

“Then why were you hidding?” Beca felt herself melt at Chloe’s harsh gaze. And not for the pleasuring reasons.

“I wasn’t hidding. I promise.” Beca tried to find an excuse. “I just wanted to pick this scarf so I could return it to its Bella,” she showed the piece of clothing in her hand. If Chloe believed her, she will never know thanks to the Bellas walking through the doors.

With a longing look, Chloe walked to the front of the auditorium and started today’s dose of hell.

“The choreography is so boring. And the songs?” Ashley complained over her moccachino.

“Right? That bitch need some education about music,” Cinthya Rose commented absentmindedly.

“If only Shortie over there grew some balls and showed her,” Beca felt all seven pair of eyes on her making it extremely hard to stay still.

“We already talked about it, Amy. There’s no way she’s gonna accept my ideas.”

“You don’t know that, Becs. You have a hell of a talent and I’m sure with your ideas and Chloe’s leadership we can win the nationals,” Stacie commented seriously.

It was all it took for the Bellas to start asking her to do so. All she had to do was to walk to Chloe and tell her about what she had planned in her mind, right? She wasn’t scared of some bitchy captain. She was a fucking baddas, dammit.

“What happens, Beca?” Chloe startled her making her stumble. Almost.

“Umm… I just… I..”

“You, what?” Beca did the dumbest mistake ever and looked to those eyes that provoked so many things to her. All at the same time.

“Ihavesomethingthatcanhelpuswinnationals,” Beca spit bracing herself mentally.

“Okay,” Chloe paused trying to understand . “Repeat, slowly this time?”

“I… I heard you the other day talking to someone and I had this idea for the routine,” Beca spoke softly. She could feel the slap coming. Metaphorically, of course.

“Okay.”

Beca felt like everything stopped right there in that instant. Did Chloe, the bitchy captain access to listen to her? Naaaah, this was too good to be true. No. She just must be hallucinating. There’s no way she-

“Well? I’m waiting,” Chloe found support in the piano waiting for Beca to explain.

“Oh, you really want to know.”

“Totes! Anything to bring the Bellas to another win,” Chloe assured with a short nod.
