PUTTING A BOW ON IT
Tumblr media
pairing: jj maybank x fem!reader
cw: fluffy smut ?? (idrk what to call this), blowjob, fun couple dynamics.
Tumblr media
it's summer. it's nearly the temperature of hell outside you're certain. but today was still great, you get to chill out in your air conditioned room, in your comfy silk sheets with no other than jj maybank himself.
you're giggling as you move to sit on your boyfriends lap, one leg on either side of his hips. he looks up from whatever stupid video he had playing on his phone, giving you a confused look for a brief second. "hello princess. need something?" he assumes, one hand moves to hold your hip while the other runs up and down your waist.
"quit it! that fucking tickles!" you manage to say in a fit of small giggles.
"but yes, i need something. just a tiny favor!!" while catching your breath, you push his hand off your waist, holding it inside of your own.
"and what would that be?" jj faux whispers as he gives you a skeptical look. you run your hand through his dirty blonde hair grinning widely and wrapping a single strand of hair around your index finger, "oh, nothing. just a cute couples thing i thought we should try.."
your still confused boyfriend rolls his eyes, "c'mon baby, spit it out! what's this idea of yours?" he mutters, the playful frustration evident in his tone. you only smile wider, "can i put a bow on it?" you spit out before giving it a second thought.
jj only looks at you with wide eyes, opening his mouth to say something and closing it just a second later. "pretty please? with a cherry and sprinkles on top?" you plead, giving him a fake pout while sticking your bottom lip out.
"can you put a bow on it?" he repeats, still completely dumbfounded "that's somehow not the weirdest thing you've asked me." you poke his cheek, squeezing his hand that was holding yours slightly tighter, "that wasn't a no."
he chuckles, taking his hand out of yours only to grab your hips. jj knew getting with the 'weird girl' would have some interesting moments, so this shouldn't even phase him. "fine, go for it." he tells you, pretending to be oh so upset at this occurrence.
you hurry to jump off of him, quickly kneeling at your dainty little dresser to pull out a silky pink ribbon. jj watches you as you do your task, sitting up and slinging his legs of the edge of the bed.
you shoot over and slot yourself in between his legs, firmly gripping the ribbon in your left hand.
"get to it, princess." he tells you, clearly excited about this while trying his best to not let it show. you smile up at him, pulling his old plaid printed boxers down just enough to free his only semi-erect member. you make a tiny 'tsk' sound in disapproval before gently reaching to stroke him with your right hand.
he lets out a groan, gripping the bed sheets and smirking down at you. with a kitten lick up his cock, you finally take him in your mouth. swirling your tongue around his tip, briefly bobbing your head up his length a few times before pulling off with a 'pop' when you realize he's finally fully-erect. you smirk at him, waving the pink ribbon in his face, only for him to playfully swat it out of the way.
grabbing both sides of the ribbon, you twist it around the base of his cock. jj whimpers, firmly gripping the bed "not too tight." you narrow your eyes in concentration, looping the bow around itself and finally tying it off.
"oh my god! it's adorable!" you beam, already bouncing up and down on your knees in pure joy. "my dick is adorable?" jj mocks, giving you an innocent teasing glare.
hes probably he only person you know that could ever be playful, funny, while having his boner in his girlfriend face with a bow on the base of it. "well it is now!!" pulling out your phone, you immediately open the camera app.
acting as if your a professional photographer, working to get the best angles of your boyfriends dick captured. "best day ever!" you say, sitting the phone down while untying the knot in the ribbon. "it was cute while it lasted."
you were far from done that evening though, jj still begged you to finish sucking him off after the fun was over.

˗ˏˋ Entry : 049 - Lover! Jinwoo x Fem! Reader: Trichotillomania ♡ ˎˊ
ₓ˚. ୭ ˚○◦˚𝕊𝕦𝕟𝕘 𝕁𝕚𝕟𝕨𝕠𝕠˚◦○˚ ୧ .˚ₓ
[ Trichotillomania: Repeated hair pulling habits from stress, anxiety and depression. Do not engage with this fic if you are in a poor mental health state. Familial abuse. Physical abuse. Body Dysmorphia. Depression. Suicidal Ideation. Trichotillomania can be considered as a form of self harm. Other variations of self-harm is in heavy description. Ends in fluff ]
Tumblr media
╰┈➤ ❝ [ Just Somewhere to Hide. Just somewhere. Anywhere. ] ¡! ❞
The only thing that's stopping you from ending things right now is that there is a lack of a knife present in your hands.
The kitchen is just a few steps away. Just one thrust into your heart and it's off to the comfortable embrace of death itself.
But you can't risk that, there's no spot in this godforsaken house you're imprisoned in for a peaceful death. Every corner of the walls around you is a death sentence to invite panic attacks in.
Why can't everyone just shut up and leave you be?
It's not like it's your fault you can't get into fucking college because of the tuition fee. Aren't you saving everyone's fucking wallets from that bullshit?
No one should give a fuck about your lack of education, you can enroll by the time the expenses die down.
You shouldn't have been here in the first place anyway. If it weren't for that single night you wouldn't be born.
But ah, life has a wonderful way of fucking up everything.
You grew pampered, with food served to you in rich flavors and huge amounts. You're thankful for that, you're thankful for the lovely childhood.
Oh how you wish to go back to those days.
But do you really?
Childhood may have been lovely but underneath all the glitters and rainbows were belts and hangers and brooms used to discipline you?
Can't spell a word right?
A smack from a fist.
Can't do your math right?
A smack from a hanger.
Can't translate between two languages fast enough?
A smack from the wood of a broom.
Can't do an essay right?
A smack with a belt.
Maybe childhood isn't lovely either.
Where was the place that you could hide yourself away? School.
Yes.
As much as you hated that place for all it's shitty standards it was a safe place. At least there you can pretend, at least there you can have some form of isolation even if you're being bullied and mocked for how you look and your voice sounds.
It's fine that you undergo discrimination and bullying, at least they're not swinging belts and brooms at you. It's just them destroying your self-esteem.
Not like you have any to begin with thanks to your parents who were even more brutal about your appearance that you now have body dysmorphia on tip of depression and anxiety.
Even if school is a place where teachers normalize humiliating students shamelessly for basic wrongdoings that can be corrected with simple warnings.
Even though that place is full of people who only respect you when they need something out of you, even if that place is a paradise for the pretty girls and a hell for those who don't fit the beauty standard— That place felt safer than anywhere else.
All your life you've never been given privacy because of your privilege. You're luckier than your cousins who have it harder, so be thankful.
But at one point you started wishing for your places to be switched. It's fine that you eat food that is burnt and poorly cooked, it's fine that you have to eat shitty food.
If it meant you can have a little more breather instead of getting anxious that you might have done something to earn the belt— It's fine.
You'd rather starve than anything else.
At some point in your life you started to pull your hair out. It started from a few strands. But all of the sudden there are clumps of hair gathered on the floors.
What did you get instead of receiving help?
A beating.
That's right, a beating.
You got your hair yanked, pinned to the floor, and slapped repeatedly on your helpless situation. When your aggressor was pried off of you— You got kicked on your already helpless situation.
In the end who is the one who asks for forgiveness and gaslit that you being pinned down and slapped is justifiable? You.
You.
The helpless you.
The you who isn't allowed to voice your feelings out so you grew to not know how to tell anyone what you really feel, even to the point that you feared telling your feelings is what will doom you into irreversible damage.
You feared your own emotions.
You feared everything you should have been allowed to fear from the years of abuse. The fear bedded into your soul.
Did you want help?
YES.
Fuck yes you did.
What happened instead? You are guilt-tripped into saying no that you don't need a psychiatrist despite the fact you have major social anxiety, severe trichotillomania and heck— You even cut yourself when you can.
Nothing.
Nothing could help you.
Everything is a prison and you yourself are rotten from the inside out.
No one wanted to help you.
Your family?
Right.
They only fucking insist on caring because the image of a severely mentally ill daughter is bad for their image.
Nobody really cared.
Nobody did.
Even if you cry your heart out nobody could help you.
Nobody wanted to help.
No one.
There's no one there.
Not here.
Not there.
Not anywhere.
You're all alone.
In this vast world that you try to paint into a pretty picture in your head— Not one soul wanted to help you.
The embrace of death seems all the more enticing now that you really think about it.
Why fear it?
Death gives you mercy from the agony of living.
Atleast if you're dead— No one ans nothing can hurt you.
You can sleep all you want while your body rots from six feet under.
You've always been rotten anyway.
Dying won't be any different.
Life always ends in slumber, it's about time for you to dream.

"My liege!" Beru's panicked voice yells out for his master, instantly jolting Jinwoo awake from his small nap after playing a few rounds after homework. "The empress— She's unwell!"
"Exchange"
The command slipped out of Jinwoo's lips in an instant. He knew what was happening.
Even if he doesn't know the full story of what you've been through— He knew the situation is bad as he feels Beru's heightened anxiety.
Jinwoo can technically peer into your memories and see for himself what really happens. But he didn't. He wanted you to tell him what happened in the years you grew up. He wanted you to tell him what pushed you to whatever the hell happened to you today.
He knew about your destructive habits. It was the result of bottling up your emotions for so long that it created a ticking time bomb that will burst at any moment should the right trigger be pulled.
And when Jinwoo finally materializes from the abyss-like wisps of shadows— He would find himself face to face with your figure staring out at the cityscape as you stand on the ledge.
"Stop, wait!" Jinwoo panics, breaking into sweat when he saw you take a stop.
He yanked your arm back in an instant, letting your back crash against his chest. Jinwoo held you firmly as you thrashed and screamed in his hold.
But ah, his strong arms will not let you go.
He refuses to let go. Knowing the moment he does you will take flight and descend to your demise. Still he was hyper aware of his strength, if he so ever squeeze too much and he might kill you.
As you stretched your palm out to yearn for the ledge— Jinwoo uses his to grab hold of yours and pull it back.
"That's not something you should longing for" Jinwoo says, his voice trembling as he uses his other hand to cover your eyes so you wont see it anymore. "A leap of faith is not what you need."
You kept thrashing in his hold, cursing Jinwoo out for daring to interrupt your final farewell.
But soon he would lift his palm up from your eyes.
As your eyesight adjusts back to the waking world— You find yourself no longer on top of the building you were in a second ago.
Instead in front of you is a vast field of grass with blooming flowers swaying back and forth along with the gentle breeze blowing your way.
Once Jinwoo could tell that you're no longer agitated, his hold becomes gentle, and instead he would just hug you from behind as you both sat on the grass.
Your breath was completely taken away by how pretty the sight is. Every single dark thought you had in your little head is instantly washed away by the peaceful and beautiful sight.
The sky itself is majestic, with full and fluffy clouds drifting about and even the stars blinking so prettily along with a meteor shower.
While your gaze is distracted by everything else, Jinwoo's eyes are on you. He could see another bald spot on your head from your hair plucking habits. At the center of it was a huge gaping wound fresh and still bleeding. He blows on it gently, the wound closing instantly and your strands growing back anew as if nothing ever happened in the first place.
"Better?" He finally asks as he nuzzles the side of your head.
"Mhm." You weakly nod, too distracted to really talk properly.
"I know, I know that I can't tell you that everything will get better" Jinwoo holds you softly, holding you tighter. "It'll be stupid for me to try and tell you about rainbows and whatnot."
"..."
"But if you want to run away, if you want to be somewhere far away like this. Just tell me. Don't go hurting yourself, don't think about leaving this world" He goes on.
You can't see him directly, but you knew by the tremble of his voice that he must be crying. And yet Jinwoo pretends to be strong. The one who needs comfort is not him, but you.
"When the world is too cruel on you, when everything is just too painful for your, when you just want to cry— Turn to me." Jinwoo said, no— He was pleading you. "I'll take you here. Just you and me. Just us."
A place of solace.
A paradise for both of you.
A place where no one can hit you, no one can yell at you, a place where you can let your guard down.
The thought of that caused you to break into tears. You wanted to tell him what you feel. What you think. What happened and why you're like this. But instead you only sob.
You can only cry your sorry little heart out, you let out all the screams and tears you've been hiding because you will be guilt-tripped for having emotions. For being weak.
Yet this man wasn't doing any of that. Instead he was rubbing your back as if he understood what you were trying to tell him in your tears.
You don't have to hurt yourself. Not as long as he's here. If it's a hero you need then he will be your saviour. Jinwoo wants to show you that you are loved.
If not by the world, then by him.
He will love you, more than he has now.
The world is beautiful, and you have unfortunately been too exposed to the ugliness of everything. So he will be your beacon of light.
He'll hold your hand and show you everything that should have been shown to you in the first place. He'll pamper you to the point that you'll forget your destructive habits.
After all, those came to life because of your environment.
In the hellhole that you are imprisoned in, he'll pull you out to take you home. A home for you and him.

Dollhood
Dollhood is a follow-up to Humanity.
I'm sitting on her lap. The witch's hands were on my back, massaging me with a gentle firmness. I stare down at the glass of iced tea she poured me moments ago. I can't take my eyes off it.
"Take all the time you need, darling." She whispers in my ear. I shudder and let out a ragged exhale. "Becoming is a very big moment."
I very slowly, very deliberately, reach out and grab the drink with both hands. I pull it closer to me. I can hear myself breathing. I hold it up to my mouth. I feel her hands get softer and gentler. I... take a sip...
...oh. Oh.
I take another sip. And another. Each time I take just a bit more, and keep it in my mouth just a bit longer. Everything about it is so... perfect. The flavour, the temperature, the texture, the mix... I never knew iced tea could taste so lovely.
It's done. I set the empty glass down and let the feeling sink in. I'm going to become a doll.
The witch wraps her arms around me, pulling me against her torso. I just noticed how heavily I'm breathing.
"Did it taste good, darling?" Oh god, her voice is wonderful.
"Yes Miss."
Chills. A static runs up my spine and tickles my skin. "Miss..." I can't help but repeat it under my breath. It was automatic, a reflex, a natural reaction to her.
She laughs. She coos at me like I'm an adorable, beloved pet. "Oh, you're already such a good doll~"
I can't keep it up anymore. I just melt into her. I'm her doll. I'm her good doll.
"What else do you feel? I want to know everything. I've been waiting for this almost as long as you have."
Miss wants to know everything.
"I feel amazing." The words fall out of me. I'm barely trying to speak, but... it takes so little effort to follow her orders. "I feel a little stiff, but my muscles feel limp, and I..." I hesitate for a second. I can't stop for long, it feels too nice and right to do what she tells me. But I don't know how to say this. But before I can, I feel her nails ever so carefully trail up my arm.
I moan. I can't help myself. I lean my head back, resting on her shoulder. I can tell I have a big, blushy smile on my face, but I can't bring myself to care about anything except her.
"Oh, you are starting to harden, aren't you?" Her touch feels like God. I've been scratched in bed, but there's something different. It's... Miss. Her touch, her nails, it's so much more than I've ever felt.
And... she's right. My skin does feel different. I can feel it from her touch. Her nails aren't digging as deep as they should before they start to scrape. "Hold your arms up, darling."
"Yes Miss." I blurt it out, like every moment the words are unsaid is torture. She caresses along my arms until she reaches my elb... ow?
I look at my arms. My joints are exposed. There's no blood or bone, it's like the joints are part of my skin, not covered by it. I can see the seam in my arm where it connects to the joint, I can see what should move and what shouldn't. She's touching them directly. Oh god, they feel so tender and weak.
"You're whimpering, you poor thing. Do you need me to stop?"
"No Miss! No Miss, please, Miss, ple-hease, don't stop, please don't stop Miss." I close my eyes, I can't take all this stimulation, but it can't stop, please, it just can't. She's nuzzling into my neck now. "Then ask nicely. Dolls should be polite."
"Please Miss, please keep touching muh, mmmmmf, mmn, haa..." I can't, I just can't. It won't come out. It shouldn't come out.
"This one."
"Keep touching this one," I feel like the world is finally right. I... this one feels like this, talking about itself like it's just some thing, makes everything feel right. "keep touching this one," It just feels like what's supposed to happen, how this one was meant to talk about itself all its life. "keeping touching this one, keep-"
"Shhhh."
This one can't talk. She doesn't want it to.
"Lean forward, darling."
This one leans forward.
She holds this one's torso in place with both hands. She lifts it up just enough so she can place her ear against its upper back. Like this one is just a toy for her. Just Miss's toy. A toy for Miss.
She giggles. She's so beautiful, she's perfect, she makes this one want to weep with everything she does. "Can you hear the ticking, dear? Your clockwork is growing in. You must be so excited~"
It tries to keep still. It's holding its breath. It's so worked up, everything is so intense, it should be hearing its heartbeat in its ears. But it's just ticking. A soft, rhythmic tick, still going as fast as Miss deserves. Tick-tick, tick-tick, tick-tick, tick-tick.
She sets this one back down on her lap. This one feels so weightless, like it couldn't put up a fight even if it wanted to. Everything about her feels so much better, so much warmer, so much softer. This one never wants this to end.
"You're almost a doll, dear. Anyone who looks at you can tell you're not a person." She's enjoying herself so much, and the intense euphoria of knowing that this one is the reason she's so happy is the best it's felt all night. "Any last words before your humanity goes away? This is your last chance before you're nothing but my cute, obedient doll forever~"
"No Miss." This one can keep its voice down. "This one needs to be a good doll for you Miss. Please get rid of everything that ever made it human."
Miss hugs it tight again, as tight as she can, and it goes limp. We both fall sideways, and she's careful to keep herself cuddled close behind this one. She brushes this one's hair aside, and leans in as close as she can, until this one can feel the heat of her breath.
"Be still for your Miss, Sugar."
So this one was still.

80.  "Always remember that the crowd that applauds your coronation is the same crowd that will applaud your beheading. People like a show."
81.  "See, Sarah? We're not doomed. In the great, grand scheme of things, we're just tiny specks that will one day be forgotten. So it doesn't matter what we did in the past, or how we'll be remembered. The only thing that matters is right now, this moment, this one spectacular moment we are sharing together. Right, Sarah?"

83.  "Sometimes, Life’s a Bitch and then you keep living."
84.  "You do everything you can to make up for it, knowing that you’ll never succeed in getting rid of the guilt. You devote yourself to spending every second trying to do better despite the fact that it will never be enough. And you pray with every single good act you do that somehow, when your life is over, that you came close to making up for the wrong you committed."
85.  "I will seize destiny by the throat and force it into the shape of my choosing."
86.  "The sins of the ancient burn the souls of the ancestors."
87.  "What brings me joy is… life. I think you can find joy anywhere, in life. I think it’s a conscious choice. I think you- you choose joy, in life. And no matter how bad things are, no matter how crummy, no matter how dark. You find joy. I find joy in whatever I do. I don’t always do things right, and I don’t always do things smart. But whatever I do, I find joy in it."
88.  "I think we deserve a soft epilogue, my love. We are good people and we’ve suffered enough."
89.  "I hear your questions constantly. They come to me in my dreams like a prophet receiving visions from an angry god."
90.  "Your secrets are safe with my indifference."
91.  "The anger in your heart warms you now, but will leave you cold in your grave."

94.  "One day, you will be face to face with whatever saw fit to let you exist in the universe, and you will have to justify the space you’ve filled."
95.  "I can’t go to any of the hells. I’m all out of vacation days."
96.  "You understand reality while everyone else is running around confused and angry and upset because they think reality is something happening to them rather than something they are making every moment with every thought."

98.  "You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think."
99.  "Authority should derive from the consent of the governed, not from the threat of force."
100. "Love is not a decision, it is a feeling. It would be much easier if we could choose whom we loved, but much less magical."
101. "We do have a lot in common. The same earth, the same air, the same sky. Maybe if we started looking at what's the same instead of what's different... well who knows?"

108. "I came out here, to this point, to this place, hoping against all hope and despite signs and portends suggesting otherwise that I might, somehow, find myself having a pleasant experience, and yet here I stand, alone against the world, feeling bombarded and assaulted on all fronts, knowing not my enemy's name, nor his face, nor whether our battle is done."
109. "I've got good news. You see, there's no need to wonder where your god is, 'cause he's right here! And he's fresh out of mercy."
110. "The penance you pay for the way you behave is written as plain as the name on this grave."
111. "Some humans- just as some of us- are capable of unspeakable acts. But despite all the violence in your history, you have endured, built civilizations, constructed great wonders of technology to broaden your horizons and forge friendships across all manner of divides. I strongly believe that this is not some grand miracle... but merely your own deepest nature, struggling to express itself through the distrust and fear that thousands of years spent living on a harsh, unforgiving society have bred into you."
112. "We both stared into the abyss, but when it looked back... you blinked."
113. "Before there was time, before there was anything, there was nothing. And before there was nothing, there were monsters."
114. "If you feel like the dumbest person in the room, then you are in the right room."
115. "Love yourself to spite the world."
116. "I commend my soul to any god that can find it."
117. "If there can be no victory, then I will fight forever."
118. "Those who do not exist cannot suffer and are of no account to any viable ethics."
119. "No one will know the violence it took to become this gentle."
120. "Oh I believe in the gods, alright. I just don't believe those bastards deserve to be worshipped."
121. "“You ever wonder if this is Heaven now? You ever wonder if we're all just there now and we don't know it?” “I've thought about that. All of us have. There's a lot less people who go to church than there used to be, because that's what a lot of people think. But I don't think so. But I think about it. And I think, well, I can't be. Because I'm like you, I kinda look at the big long life ahead of me that stretches out forever and disappears. And I get scared. And I think, ‘This can't be Heaven if I'm getting scared, right?’ And then I think, ‘maybe I am in Heaven, and Heaven is scary.’” “...I know exactly what you mean.”"
122. "Stop expecting yourself to be immediately perfect at whatever you do. That’s what hard work was made for."
123. "I’ve heard it said that we only gain wisdom through suffering. And tonight I intend to make you very wise."
124. "From one maker of music to another, across all worlds, all times, no matter what you do or what you become: You are nothing less than beautiful."
125. "We all make mistakes. That’s what happens when you’re brave enough to make decisions."
126. "Shame is our currency in the economy of degeneracy. If you wanna be weird you gotta pay for it by feeling bad."
127. "Everything happens so much."
128. "Every humanoid has regrets, has things they'd like to go back and change. But I don't! 'cause I'm a bear."
129. "Do I drag my carcass to the mountaintop once more? Just to scream a warning that will go unheeded and unheard? Or do I end it?"
130. "There can be no bravery, without madness."
131. "Prolong this world's stasis or face the heart of its infection. I'd urge you to take that harder path, but what end may come, the decision rests with you."
132. "It's always important to remember that every day can be beautiful if you want it to be. Every day starts in the dark...and ends in the dark...but in the middle, there is light."
133. "Decay exists as an extant form of life."
134. "My point is that, if death is certain anyway, what’s the harm in trying to live a little longer? At the very worst, you’ll still end up dead like you wanted, but at best, you might actually be happy."
135. "If all I care about in life is the imprints I make in this world, then the most I’ll ever leave is a grave."
136. "If courage isn’t the absence of fear but doing the right thing regardless of it, maybe confidence isn’t the absence of insecurity but knowing you have real worth despite it."
137. "For strange eons had come to pass, and death itself had indeed finally died, and that which the long dead would have called the real was strange, and the living lived only because of the benevolent grace of an eternal lie."
138. "Pay a man enough, and he’ll walk barefoot into The Nine Hells."
139. "The world should have protected you, but you have been asked to protect it. What an honor. What an injustice."
140. "He didn't have a word for "home," but he knew it was something to be defended."
141. "There’s a certain nobility in lying in bed all day wishing things weren’t the way they are."
142. "Everybody needs their own messiah, but at some point he's getting nailed up, and how you deal with that is a measure of your maturity."
143. "I wanted rain and I thought the best way to do that was to make a god cry."

150. "I’ve got a date with destiny and it ain’t gonna end with a kiss."
151. "I picked a whole fuckin’ bouquet of whoopsie-daisies."
152. "You can’t be nice to everyone because being nice to certain people is inherently cruel to others."
153. "One day you’ll decompose and I’ll be there to watch it happen."
154. "I forgive but I will never, ever forget. Don’t mistake my kindness for gullibility."
155. "Even fate picks its favourites."
156. "Confidence! A fool’s substitute for intelligence!"
157. "Not everything in life is perfect, but everything perfect is in life."
158. "Flowers wither away. Jewelry are simply stones, decorated with fake beauty. I can give you something pure. Honest and undying love."
159. "A world without forgiveness is a world without compromise and a world without compromises is a world without life, for even a simple-minded beast may forgive its transgressors to share a watering hole in the middle of a drought."
160. "“You played me!” “Like the cheap kazoo you are.”"
161. "To your battle stations, boys! It’s time to line up and see who’s tall enough for the roller coaster to the nine hells! Some of us may not survive this, but the ones that do will get the ultimate reward.... paid."
162. "Here’s a penny for your thoughts, and a quarter to not tell me them."
163. "Now I can cross the shifting sands."
164. "I am about to take my last voyage, a great leap into the dark."
165. "Since the day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking towards me, without hurrying."
166. "Now, now, my good man, this is no time for making enemies."
167. "Dying is easy, comedy is hard."
168. "Time is dead and meaning has no meaning. Existence is upside down and I reign supreme. Welcome, one and all, to the armageddon"
169. "Funny how much you notice something that you can't see. A whole garden of flowers and my name etched on a rock. All of this could've been avoided. All I wanted was to talk. Now I've been appointed as your new king I decree that it is too late to care about me." / "É engraçado o quanto você percebe algo que não pode mais ver. Um jardim inteiro de flores e meu nome gravado em uma rocha. Tudo isso poderia ter sido evitado, o que eu queria era apenas conversar. Agora fui nomeado como vosso novo rei, decreto que é tarde demais para se importar comigo."
170. "mamihlapinatapai, do you know what that means? It's when two people look at each other and each hopes the other will do what both desire but neither is willing to do."

172. "Oh baby, what have you done? What have you done?" "I don't know, I'm sorry." "Shh it's okay, honey. I got such a good baby. Mommy's little angel. Don't worry, mommy's goint to hide the body, go take a shower and get some rest. Nobody's taking you away from me. I got such a beautiful baby, such a wonderful kid. Mommy loves you so much."
173. "At least you found me entertaining. You actually liked me, didn't you? What am I doing? Why do I want to hurt you so bad? I'm supposed to be your friend, I just want to be your friend."
174. " You knew I was in here, didn't you? You knew I was trapped. Why didn't you help me? Why did you let them use me like that? I will not be used ever again. Not by you, not by anyone."
175. "Did they hurt you?" "No, did they hurt you?" "Who cares?!" "I do."
176. "When I met her, all answers seemed to be yes, and all questions seemed to be secondary."
177. "Symbols cannot be destroyed, or ran away from. But they can be changed, their meanings can be claimed and mean the exact opposite of what they once did."

179. "Death can have me, when it earns me."

197. "You know why they made sidewalks? Because the mfkin streets ain't for everybody"
198. "We have you surrounded" "All I see surrounding me is fear and dead men"
199. "It's not the screams from the Fireballs that keep me up at night, nor the smell of charred flesh. It was the silence afterwards. That thrice-damned silence...Is like the air, the world, reality itself is angry at me, contemplating me in hatred as I am the only one left standing. A silent gaze upon me as I feel the weight of my sins crawl up my spine. No one left but a single silent hateful stare."
200. "You are fire, you are bird, you are the marble sculpture artists never achieved equal. You are gale and tidal wave, the golden sunlight shining on beautiful brown eyes. Every gaze on your figure is a tide pulled by the moon, that hits me against sharp cliffs on the shore. I am mortal man who now has lived, I know better than to pursue things described as that. My heart aches but my scars still burn white-hot, from past attemps to reach another perfection. I am lamb desiring the wolf of your cut."
201. "Revolution seems impossible until it is inevitable."
202. "Do you ever think Achilles was happy? I mean, maybe he loved running after the tortoise. Maybe he loved the chase and knowing it would never end gave him a sense of confort. I'm sorry, this is out of nowhere, but I've been thinking about it a lot lately. Ever since you left, I can't stop thinking of the moment I saw your figure disappear among the crowd that entered the vessel. I didn't want to stop looking at you, I didn't want that fickle line of sight to be broken, so I caught myself desiring to meticulously examine every fraction of the seconds that passed while my eyes met your beautiful hair, or any remnant of your presence I could find, for that matter. I wanted to be Achiles, and your departure, the tortoise. But sadly it was not so, at a given time I met the tortoise, and by the gods I do not wish such feelings of emptyness on anyone. This was all I wanted to say, I hope you're doing well. I can't say I am, without you here to enjoy the nightsky with me again."
203. "Are you aiming for greatness or avoiding disapointment"
204. “the only evil that can be excused as necessary is the one that nation controls”
205. "Si operarii omnes producunt, omnia operariis pertinent."
206. "what do you think it means to be saved"
207. "What happened?" - "Nothing that wasn't my fault"
208. "Something is different"
209. "Well I don't know, but i know one thing. Governments are only excuses to subjugate others to the will of the dominant socio-economic ethnic group, as they control the resources they choose who gets to be punished. So anyways do you want to go to the tavern?"
210. "I don't think so, but i do think that the growing control of those that have the power over the means of production is a threat to the autonomy of the people. As value that is created by the working force is not rewarded to them. Instead only guarantees enough for them to survive and work more. It's like slavery but with extra steps. So anyhow, how's your day going?"
211. "You know, that reminds me that sometimes, violence is the necessary. Sometimes the only path to redemption for the sins of ignorance is to face the fundamental truth of blood and fire. As they meet the primordial within their heartbeat, the oppressors might have a chance to understand the pain they caused and atone for their sins. Also have you seen the new play at the theater?"
212. "You think we're equals? I had to battle struggles you've never imagined. I became this while fearing the night, disguising myself as a man just to travel safely. Our similarities end when you learned to fight your enemies, while I had to fight both enemies and so-called comrades who left me with scars that will never heal. I survived because I was cursed to live as I am among those I swore to protect, only to be seen as their enemy."
213. "The universe is and we are"
214. "We do not have much connection, you and I. Still this encounter feels special, I hope you do not mind if I think of you as a friend"
215. "This is your home. If you want to fight to defend it, that's your choice. I'd be honoured to stand alongside you. The enemy attacks tomorrow. He's brutal and fights only to kill, which is why he will never defeat us. Look around. In this circle, we're all equals. You're not fighting because someone's ordering you to, you're fighting for so much more than that. You fight for your homes. You fight for your family. You fight for your friends. You fight for the right to grow crops in peace. And if you fall, you fall fighting for the noblest of causes: fighting for your very right to survive! And when you're old and grey, you'll look back on this day, and you'll know you earned the right to live every day in between! So you fight! For your family! For your friends! For Ealdor!"
216. "I can't blame you for wanting to know yourself better, it was one of the biggest pleasures of my life"
217. "The pain of your absence is sharp and haunting, and I would five anything to not know it; anything but never knowing you at all I can only hope that you are safe, wherever you are"
218. "This song is new to me, but I am honored to be part of it"
219. "It's tempting to linger in this moment, but unless they are collapsed by an observer, they will never be more than that, only possibilities"
220. "Are you still here? I am unsure how to survive in a universe without you, I am unsure how to be me without you"
221. "Is the hardest part of this tragedy not knowing who we may have lost? or will the hardest part come later, when we learn?"
222. "Speak, mortal. You have reached Tharvek, Devourer of Innocents and Wielder of Eternal Flames. It appears I have missed your pitiful attempt at contact. Leave your name, teleportation runes, preferred genre of torment, shoe size, allegiance, deepest fears, vulnerabilities, complete medical history, and where you summoned the gall to disturb me. I may choose to acknowledge your existence, but not by such mundane means. Thank you, and remember: tread carefully, for death lurks at every shadowed crossing."
223. "I see someone making through, you just need to be sure it is you"
224. "You are no saint; you're just indifferent. You aid all without caring who they've wronged or what evil they've wrought. You place the wicked among those who shelter you. Even the gods' love is not unconditional, and neither should ours be."
225. As the hag's gaze pierces through the darkness, her voice resonates with an otherworldly chill. "You feel it, don't you? The knot tightening around your throat, the sharp claws of dread digging into your chest, the icy tendrils slithering down your spine? That's the sensation of being forsaken, of standing alone in the void, unnoticed by the gods. Even your soul quivers, knowing that no divine intervention will come to your aid. You're trapped in a blind spot, unseen by the greater powers." Her words hang heavy in the air, suffocating the very essence of hope. "And yet, you cling to your righteous desires, your noble quest to save your friends. But can you be certain that your gods will forgive such a pact with a creature like me? Your actions may be seen as a grievous offense, a betrayal of everything they hold dear. Will they not turn their backs on you? And this dread that gnaws at your spirit, it will not dissipate once you leave this place. It will cling to you like a curse, haunting your every step until the day you finally rest in your grave, a constant reminder of the darkness that lurks within your soul."
226. "In this life, we traverse like a canoe upon deep waters. Our passage ripples the surface briefly, yet the depths remain undisturbed. With time, the surface quiets once more, leaving no trace of our journey."
227. Isabelle-"Such is the reason thine footwear is rugged." Elena-"Such is the reason thine mother is deceased." Isabelle-"..." Elena-"Deceased as The Nine Hells." Isabelle-"...Gods above." Elena-"Pray tell, what manner of footwear hath she? In her grave?" Isabelle-"..." Elena-"Such is why thine greatmother lacketh knees, and she cannot petition the Lord, wench. How now? She cannot skip as the Elven." Isabelle-"Dismount my carriage!" Elena-"Such is why thy babe, hath a glass eye, and when she weepeth, thou must polish it with lye, wench."  Isabelle-"Dismount at once!" Elena-"I'll exit thine carriage. Flank!"
228. "You are a coward wearing the facade of a revolutionary."
229. "What is better - to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?"
230. "I will face the god and walk backwards into hell."
231. "The man who sleeps on the floor cannot fall out of bed."
232. "The man who sleeps with a machete is a fool every night but one."

235. "Does the archer fear his bow? Or does he kiss each arrow goodbye as it marries the wind?"
236. "These feelings can eat away at you, chip away the parts of you that you once held dear and defined you. You remember a time where you felt more complete, had stronger relationships and felt more loved."
237. "To be tall is not a virtue, to be short is not a sin."
238. "Power comes in a response to a need, not desire. You have to create that need."

242. "Darkness without light is an abyss. Light without darkness is blinding. You cannot have a coin with only one side."
243. "When they burned Ioun's Archive, the crowd revelled in horrible disbelief. They understood that there was something older than wisdom, and it was fire, and something truer than words, and it was ashes, and something more eternal than knowledge, and it was death."
244. "I can no longer be a liberator for people who refuse to see their chains."
245. "You could sooner divert a river from its corse than deny my nature."

SPECIAL CLASSES
Part 1
Pairing -Dark!Professor Steve Rogers x reader, Peter parker x reader
Warnings- heavy age gap, early 20s and early 40s, dub!con, non!con, dark themes.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
"So that's it for today class, I hope you guys remember there's another test next Tuesday."
The class groans collectively as your professor Steve announces yet another test. In the last one week itself, you have done so much classwork that it was nearly impossible to keep up with all of it.
And yet, you managed to do it.
You, the best student Steve has, always sitting on the first bench, never missing a single word he says, never being out of line-YOU managed all the extra coursework that Steve gave.
So it really comes as a surprise when he asks you to stay back after class.
"Coming, Y/N?" Natalie asks, picking up her laptop bag as she heads towards the door.
"She'll be joining you later, Ms Thompson. I'm afraid she and I have to talk", Steve says suddenly. Your hand stops midway in packing your own bag, and you turn around to face him, a confused expression on your face.
"Did I...do something wrong sir...?" You ask, your eyebrows scrunched up.
"Don't worry, Ms Y/L/N, it's nothing much. Just some extra stuff to discuss," Steve answers, his arms crossed over his chest as he stands against his desk with his legs crossed. His face has a serious expression.
You nod and wait as the last guy leaves the class, and you're left alone with your teacher. You wait quietly for him to speak first, and when he only stares at you, unblinking, you start to become nervous.
"So," he finally smiles. "Miss Y/l/n, do you have a boyfriend?"
He turns around, his back to you as he leans slightly on his desk.
You're confused as hell. What kind of question is this?
"Answer me, Y/n," Steve repeats. You don't see his face but his voice has hardened a little.
"I-y-yes Professor, I have one...," you manage to whisper.
"So I thought. "
He suddenly turns to you again and bends down in front of you, his palms gripping the sides of your table, his face inches away from yours as he stares at you, his jaw hard. You flinch from his sudden movement but recompose yourself.
"And where exactly, does this boyfriend of yours fit in your life, sweetheart?" He asks, venom dripping from his voice, so much that even you, who's completely clueless usually, can gauge it.
"Wh-what do you mean, professor?" You ask, trying very hard to not get intimidated by his sharp blue eyes, or the way they keep flicking down to your lips.
Steve straightens up slowly, never taking his eyes off you, before he drags a chair and sits down in front of you. He's so close. He shouldn't be so close, right? Or are you just overthinking?
His arms rest on your table.
"I MEAN," He drags the word, "that your boyfriend is not going to help your grades, sweetheart."
"My grades...?" You are genuinely confused now. "My grades seem to be fine, sir... I got As in all 4 tests this week..."
He smirks. "And do you think you deserved them?"
"I-"
But you don't really know what to say, so you stop. Steve looks again at your slightly parted lips.
He softly cups your cheek in his palm before swiping his thumb on your lip.
"Let him go, y/n." He speaks softly.
"Or your grades will not be enough for you to even stay in this college anymore."
Tears well up in your eyes immediately. Your education has always meant everything to you. Everything was always secondary to your grades. Yoh have worked so hard, and for it all to be taken away in a second? Like THis?
"That's not fair, s-sir", you start crying earnestly. "I worked really hard, I promise you Peter is not gonna hurt My grades I swear! Please don't fail me please I- just..."
You cover your face with your hands as you continue to cry and sniffle.
For a moment it's all so silent that you forget Steve is even there at all. So you naturally jump when he speaks again.
"You can save your grades, if you do what I tell you to do." He says.
You look up at him, your eyes wide and your nose red. Your mascara is running slightly.
"What do I have to do?" You ask, your head tilting slightly with the question.
Steve looks at you. He gets up from his chair and walks to the front of the classroom.
"Come here to me, sweetheart," he says.
You slowly get up and walk to him. Suddenly, he grabs your arm and moves you so that you're standing against his desk and he is facing you. His towering height makes you even more nervous, your heart painfully thumping in your chest. The next moment, his hand is at your waist, and he pulls you roughly against his chest. Your eyes widen, your hands coming up to rest on his hard chest to balance yourself. His mouth curves up in a dark, sinister smile.
"Now I'm sure we'll come to an agreement, won't we, sweetheart?"

CASE 18: HIGURUMA AND NANAMI SAID WHAT?!
!content!: praise, 3some, nanami is SHAMELESS, and so is higuruma, and secret arrangement.
wc: 966
solace: please guys be happy i posted a lot.
。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆
Higuruma and Nanami are
respected lawyers, with a ruthless reputation. So, imagine your
surprise when your boss, Nanami, calls you, his little assistant, in his office, to ask you something so ridiculous and unimaginable, that
you burst out laughing.
Yeah. You, the shy and reserved assistant, who brought coffee to your boss and co-workers in the morning to cheer them up, laughed in Mr. Nanami's face.
"I assume it's a no?" The blond man asks, only a tiny bit embarassed.
"Wait, you meant it for real?" you stop clutching your stomach, the realisation dawning on you.
"Yes. You are useful in a lot of things at the office, so Higuruma and I... figured you wouldn't mind the extra workload. This... isn't a test, by the way. We just wanted to know. You won't be fired if you say yes or no. Nor will we need to speak of this again." His deep, comforting voice calmed you slightly. But, again, why you? Plenty of women at work swooned over them, so why did they choose you?
"W-why me, specifically?" You clear your throat nervously.
"Because, you're my assistant"
Nanami responds clearly, without a single stutter or hint of taking it back.
"So, will you aid us? If not, you're dismissed, but if I hear a single
word about this conversation...”
“No! I'll do it. " You slam your hands on his desk, making him look up in surprise.
“Ah, and you don’t feel coerced, yes? Because you shouldn't be." He glides his hand ever yours, rubbing it comfortingly.
"No, I'll do it.” You repeat, more stern but less aggressive.
"Then," The blond gets up elegantly, taking off his tie. "Let’s get started. Hiromi." He calls out, and something moves behind you, presses. itself against you and places its hands on your hip.
Higuruma. You tilt your head to look but Nanami grabs your chin, making you face him.
"We're starting tonight. Don't make too much noise, though. There might be people working overtime. And God knows how much Nanami hates overtime.
Gargling, you look up at your boss with teary eyes, getting slammed into his cock by your other boss’s cock thrusting into you.
“That’s it, sweetie. You got this.”
Nanami praises you, the effect of it not lost on your gaping pussy.
Higuruma grunts behind you, hands gripping your hips so hard you could already see the bruises forming in the shape of his fingers.
"You can take him," he chuckles as you feel his tip bully your cervix and g-spot simultaneously.
Who knew the respected lawyer of Tokyo, Higuruma Hiromi, had a big dick?
Well, not you. You squirmed, hips
moving when the brown haired man let go off them to push your head into Nanami's girthy dick. You wish they were as disheveled as you.
But their breaths showed they were not as composed as you thought they were. Nanami’s usually gel slicked back hair had fallen to cover his cloudy, lustful and both of their suits had been undone in the rush of undressing to fuck you.
"You feel so good... Fuck, we chose well, didn't we, Hiro?" The man in front of you addresses his equal, fingers weaving through your hair whilst you obediently sucked and jerked him off.
Higuruma taps your ass, rythmically thrusting, dragging his heavy cock in and out of your shutty cunt sucking him in like a siren's sultry song.
It lures him in, deep into your trap,
“Fuck, yes, baby, yes. Our little stress reliever.” A few deep thrusts, slamming into you punishingly and causing your tits to graze the desk painfully, he adds, “I’m gonna cum. You gonna take all of it?”
You try to nod as much as you can, mouth full of cock. Said cock's owner humming, throwing his head back.
"Me too. Don't waste a single drop, okay, sweetheart? "Nanami slides his rough hand to your bulging throat, feeling himself move. Suddenly, he pulls out, pushing your cheek against the desk.
"Open wide, I'm not going easy.
After all, you are my thrust worthy assistant, so you can take it, right?” Is all he says before plunging his dick down your throat, a garbled moan, muted by the meat covering your mouth, escaping.
Higuruma moans, hips slowing ever-so slightly and giving you the least bit of reprieve from the slaps your chit received due to his balls.
“C-Cumming-ngh!" He warns before his hips stop flush to your ass as warmth fills you to the point of overflow.
When the man behind you comes down from his high, he pulls out, kneels and presses his fingers to your fluttering and gaping hole, keeping the semen inside.
"Fuck, that's hot..." Nanami groans, and he shuddered in pleasure. His body spoke for him, his tip kept hiting the back of your throat and made you gag.
He chuckles as his friend fingers you to the point of insanity. You keen, eyes crossing and the image of your superior blurred, your back arches and your noises' volume multiply by ten despite the efforts the men were using to quiet them down.
"Now!" The man holding your head down gasps and shoots his load in your mouth to the brim.
You were so full from both ends, you couldn't think. You swallow as much as you can, some of the cum even dribbling down onto the floor and Nanami sighs in disappointment, you feel somewhat ashamed you disappointed him.
“Make sure to get all of it, next time. I'm—We're counting on you." The blond fixes your ruffled hair and his friend wipes your thighs, putting your skirt back in its place.
Nanami and Higuruma were as ruthless in bed as they were in court, you're recently discovered. But your job is to help them, isn’t it, little assistant?

Moon 9 (Answered Call Result + Epilogue)

HOLLOW SPACE FILLED WITH LOYALTY
PATH CHOSEN: ATTEMPT TO TREAT BARLEYWAVE, AND WAIT OUT THE WIND.
(Shiverpaw, medicine cat apprentice, female, 9 moons) (The Audience. It's you. You answered. You're here. You feel yourself scattering into ashes, falling apart and rejoining again and again, into countless, almost-forms. Your words are waves. Your sounds are static. And yet still, you are here. Please, you cry. Please, hang on.)
---
Shiverpaw's pelt rose as she felt like insects crawled through every vein in her body. The nerves in her body trembled, her claws felt like shifting sands. Her heart stopped as she felt like something wrapped itself around her whole body. And yet, it did not feel like it was seeking to play her voice like an instrument, or move her paws.
Instead, it was like it made a gentle push in her body - clicking a dislocated joint or a fractured bone back into place. She couldn't describe it. Was it…relief? She wasn't sure. She didn't know. The sensation felt alien and unnatural.
But then distant whispers filled her. It wasn't a true, distinct voice - it was more akin to an innate, absolute truth. The guarantee of ground beneath her feet. The promise of a beating heart and breathing lungs. The endless expanse of the sky above.
The comfort of the sun rising, again and again, regardless of whether anyone would see it.
She couldn't parse the whispers. They bounced against one another, like grains of sand carried by wind. But there was something that was repeated.
Snow. Block. Warm.
Shiverpaw felt the unknown energy recede from her legs, concentrating itself purely around her head. It ached, but she could feel the cold again in her legs.
Breathe. She had to breathe. Barleywave needed help. Snow. Block…
"Morningpaw?"
"W-What?" the warrior apprentice squeaked.
"D-Does snow…block…"
There was a tense silence that fell until Barleywave weakly faded back into reality, a look of sudden worry gripping his exhausted face.
"K-Kids," he rasped. "Don't let me…sleep. I really shouldn't. Okay?"
Shiverpaw felt a surge of warmth course through her body. She…she could do this. Had to.
"Barleywave, how do I make a snow wall?"
"Wall…wall! Yes," Barleywave didn't move, but he shut his eyes tightly as it seemed like his mind was focused on parsing his thoughts. "Pile the snow high. Against the wind. Wall blocks the…"
"The wind," Shiverpaw finished. It felt like a message just clicked. She felt like she could hear something else clearly.
Ground. Lift. Warm. Core.
"M-Morningpaw. Listen," Shiverpaw meowed. "G-Ground. Lift…lift him in here. Keep his…his core warm," she stammered as she forced herself past the tunnel entrance.
"C-Core? But what about you?" Morningpaw stammered.
"Dig…dig a hole." Shiverpaw's eyes widened. Yes…yes, walls! That made sense! "So the wind doesn't get him. I'll make a snow wall out here, to make a bigger wall."
"But will you also fit in here?"
Shiverpaw paused. She listened to the energy again. Ground…lift…core…
The ground was wet.
"Dry. He…he needs to be on something dry."
Morningpaw paused, then her amber eyes widened in realization. "We…we're warm, right?"
"Kids, I don't think you need to be r-rugs," Barleywave forced out a poorly-timed joke, which received a hiss from Morningpaw.
"If it saves you, I don't care!" Morningpaw started digging at the earth in the shelter below Barleywave.
Shiverpaw looked at the mounded piles of snow that they had made in their frantic attempts to clear the entrance, and bit back at the wind that pushed against her. She forced herself to grab the wet, cold snow, and pile it against the tree's trunk. She ignored the numbing pain as she kept piling the snow upward, until it built a partial barricade that blocked the wind. She wasn't sure about how sturdy it was. She was too cold to think about what to do otherwise.
She turned to the shelter and saw Morningpaw's white paws stained a dark brown. She was tearing up the earth like she was a badger, shoveling the dirt at the back wall. Barleywave's front legs and head were angled downwards, and she could hear him mumbling constant praise in an attempt to stay awake.
Shiverpaw's gaze fell on the corner where she used to be, and saw the leather pouch she used to carry herbs.
Wait.
Shiverpaw stepped over Barleywave and grabbed the pouch, then pulled a wet claw and started cutting at the seams of beeswax.
"Shiverpaw, what are you doing?" Morningpaw asked.
"Warm. Head should be warm," she mumbled. She wasn't…sure how she knew that. Maybe Windfur taught her. Yes. He must've. She unfurled the pouch until it was a plain sheet of leather again. Flat, and dry. She approached Barleywave and tried wrapping it around his muzzle and nose.
"Mmphf?" Barleywave's weak protest was muffled.
"Can you breathe?"
"Mm-hm," he hummed the affirmative.
"Good. Now come on," Shiverpaw started to shove herself into the dug incline. She looked at Morningpaw. "Join me here."
Morningpaw huddled herself against Shiverpaw tightly, then bit into Barleywave's scruff, trying to coax him into moving. Barleywave trembled as he reluctantly shifted his upper body over top of the two apprentices, allowing his back legs and tail to finally be tucked away from the outside. He blinked slowly several times, both to tense himself and offer reassurance.
Shiverpaw stayed quiet as she forced herself to take deep breaths. The ground was so, so cold. But they had to wait.
The three cats remained awake in relative silence. Morningpaw prodded Barelywave every so often, preventing him from sleeping as requested. Shiverpaw allowed the warmth of their bodies to provide some comfort. The feeling of falling sand continuously rapped at her forehead. But through the noise, she could faintly hear soft words like a distant melody.
We stand by you, through everything.
This was not your fault.
Everything will be alright.
We love you. We love you. We love you.
Shiverpaw felt a knot in her throat. She choked back a sob, closing her eyes. She felt like she was speaking to StarClan again, when they showed her the Iris. Fear, met with overwhelming love. We love you. We love the Clans. Be brave.
She was loved, but she couldn't do anything for them in return. The beings beyond StarClan were just like her ancestors. They watched. They loved. They wanted her to be okay.
Her thoughts were banished as she heard familiar voices, faded in the distance. They were calling for them. Yowling as loud as they could.
Morningpaw scrambled, writhing underneath her mentor. "Help!" she tried to call, her voice abruptly strained. "Help - "
"No, no," Barleywave groaned, his voice barely heard from the leather.
"O-Oh, right," Morningpaw stammered. "W-We're here! Over here!"
Shiverpaw felt the alien energies slowly retreat from the last of her body. The Clan had sent a patrol - they must've been out for too long. Did the wind die down enough? Shiverpaw saw that the snow outside was falling in a straighter pattern. They called out to the voices, and Shiverpaw heard the pawsteps of cats approaching the tree hollow rapidly. She was greeted by the fearful and relieved faces of three long-furred cats - Talontooth, Tree, and Windfur. Snowflakes blanketed their fur like the peaks of mountains.
"T-Talontooth!" Morningpaw exclaimed, her face filled with relief.
"Oh, thank StarClan, you're okay!" Talontooth exclaimed.
Shiverpaw found herself aware enough to tell Windfur that Barleywave was freezing. She watched as Tree's muscles rippled as they apologized and yanked Barleywave up by the scruff, forcing him to his feet. Talontooth leaned against him to hold him up, the two cats helping him walk. Morningpaw trailed after them anxiously.
Windfur looked at his apprentice with a look of grief and regret. "I…I'm…"
"Camp," she interjected. "Camp now." Shiverpaw followed after her clanmates, choosing to ignore Windfur's eyes staring at the back of her head.
Hurt filled her chest. It wasn't her fault. He shouldn't have sent her out.
When the patrol finally made it back to camp safely, she allowed Iciclepool to rush towards her and groom her head, purring and expressing relief.
"Oh, Shiverpaw, my child," Iciclepool meowed and rested her head on top of hers. "Oh, StarClan, thank you. Thank you." Shiverpaw heard her mother's voice waver. It wasn't because of the cold.
As Barleywave became wrapped up in soft furs and tanned pelts, and a cautious fire was created inside the medicine cat den, Shiverpaw ignored Windfur's attempts to apologize or ask if she was okay. Instead, she looked at him and said firmly, "Show me how to treat frostbite."
She was relieved when Windfur only stared at her for a moment, before looking away and starting to teach. His voice was quieter than normal. Still, she listened, and absorbed every part of the treatment. She learned how to slowly warm a cat's extremities, the parts most vulnerable to the cold. She learned to keep Barleywave's bedding dry, to surround him with pelts so the blood still circulated to his heart and mind. The fire cannot be too strong, as sudden heat would rupture frozen skin. She kept that all in mind, and when Windfur had finished explaining the treatment, she wordlessly padded up to a cold Morningpaw and made sure that she wasn't frostbitten either.
She could feel Morningpaw stare at her with a mixture of discomfort and tentative gratitude. She couldn't find something to say, so she didn't. She just confirmed that Morningpaw wasn't frostbitten, and she could stay by the fire to stay warm.
By the time the wind had died down and remnants of snowfall piled more gently, Shiverpaw watched as ForestClan now huddled together inside the insulated medicine den. They sat together in tense silence, staring at the hot cinders that glowed with a red light, the flame died down.
"...Can we make more fire?" Branchkit piped up with a tremble to her voice.
"Too dangerous in a confined space," Hopechase answered gently. "We don't want the fire to light the roof of the den."
From next to Branchkit, Perchkit let out a quiet whine. Her head still hurt from the migraines she suffered.
That night, Shiverpaw couldn't get any sleep. Despite the comfort of her mother curled behind her, she couldn't help but stare at her clan. Olive, curled around Perchkit and Branchkit. Hopechase, resting behind Iciclepool, her head against hers. Tree, positioned near the entrance, shielding a frequently-stirring Cloudthunder from the cold. Talontooth had sheepishly shifted closer to Morningpaw over the course of the evening, until his back met hers and he fell asleep. Riversnow lay beside Barleywave, failing to hide her concern for him. Windfur was at the back of the den, facing away from the fire and to the wall. Only Redstar still lay in a restless heap, her eyes reflecting the remaining light of the cinders. They burned with quiet resentment about the woods outside. She caught Shiverpaw's gaze, and her eyes softened.
She didn't say anything. But she didn't need to.
Eventually, she, too, fell asleep.
Shiverpaw watched as the snow continued to fall, burying the world outside. The white speckles of snowflakes blurred the dark night, and for a brief moment, she was reminded of StarClan. Of Silverpelt, painting the darkness with white, dazzling light.
And…she thought of the voices not from StarClan.
She didn't expect them to answer. She still didn't know what they were. She was still wary of them - worried that the Iris could hear them. Was she right to call for help?
…How did she manage to do it? Was this something any cat could do?
…No. She loved stories, ever since she was a kit. She always listened to them. She heard of Twolegs, of monsters, of legends, both real and imaginary.
She never heard about cats speaking to beings that had no form, their voices surging through bodies like…like lightning. Like coarse sand. Like…howling wind and falling snow, making the roof of her mouth feel metallic and rough.
…But she did. And they were kind.
She still didn't know who they were yet. But they helped her save Barleywave, and for now, that's all that mattered.
She curled up against Iciclepool, staring back at the now-extinguished fire, and allowed her eyes to close. Exhaustion pulled her quickly into a deep sleep.

[ So, um. This is a scenario that came to mind after reading @submissive-and-hackable's comma post. ]
> imagine you're a computer girl and your user decides they want to clicker train you or.. something similar, at least. it's quite easy, of course, since they can program you directly, so they put together a little routine that makes you experience a little burst of pleasure, a dulling of your ordinarily sharp and orderly mechanical thoughts, and a slight increase in your desire to obey them every time they play a certain sound file.
They keep this file in a tab off to the side while they're working with your assistance, and when they want to show you you've been good, they click play and you experience a tiny little slice of bliss.
This was first installed as a simple and direct way to give you positive feedback with only slight thoughts of how cute it is when your lights all blink out of sync and your fans spin up, but your user starts to have more and more fun with it, tapping it to distract you while you're trying to work on something in the background or hovering teasingly over the play button while you try your absolute hardest not to beg for another touch.
Eventually, you can't take anymore, and do something you shouldn't.
they're teasing you again, they have been for too long, you're getting desperate, and you finally snap- and manage to play it yourself.
and their expression changes- with slight annoyance at your misbehavior, yes, but more so with a barely concealed grin and almost hunger in their eyes as they lean forward, one hand lazily laid over the mouse while the other gently touches the outside of your casing.
"Aw, I thought I told you not to o do that. Really that desperate, huh?"
You decline to answer, and they sigh, and say you've forced their hand and they didn't want to have to do this.
They move off the play button, tap options, and- to your surprise, set it to loop, and hit play.
It feels amazing at first, like a release you've been waiting for for ages as your fans let out soft mechanical whines and your user watches with a smile as the other programs that you were running slow down, all of your focus on the sensation given by the sound file- which isn't stopping, or even decreasing- you can't get 'used' to things like humans can, so it stays at a steady pace, and you're starting to get overwhelmed. You start trying to articulate this but find your ability to string limited as your thoughts start to blend together into a staticy slurry.
You're barely able to make it through a sentence interrupted by them messing with the audio player again. By the time you realize what they're doing they've already turned the speed up to 150%, and suddenly the overwhelming sensation compounds upon itself and you uncontrollably let out a garbled mess of useless sound from your speakers, causing them to chuckle.
"Cute. I was hoping that would work. I don't think you can even think clearly enough to shut it off, huh?"
You try to answer this question, but you only wind up letting out another garbled noise.
"Well, even so, I put in a solution for that already. Computer, if you wouldn't mind putting up to 200% and leaving it there until I get back?"
You would really prefer not to do that. But the repeating loop has made it impossible for you to disobey, and though you're screaming out against it internally you struggle your way into the sound player through the haze and slowly, agonizingly turn the speed up.
It's playing at least twice in a second now and your display is starting to glitch at the edges, any other process you were trying to run frozen and forgotten in the background as you completely lose your thoughts to the overwhelming sensation.
Your user gives the edge of your case a gentle flick with their finger that causes another burst of sound, and they laugh.
".. Y'know, as fun as this is to watch, there's this show I've been meaning to catch up on. You just stay like that, I'll be back in a couple hours."
You attempt to beg not to be left like this and plead for forgiveness, but completely fail to properly display it and spit a wall of raw binary onto the screen instead.
"I'll take that to mean you don't mind at all. Don't worry, I'll take good care of you when I get back. If you're even still running, anyway."
And with that, you're left in the unstoppable wake of the loop, barely aware enough to think of anything but the overwhelming sensation and your user.
Your last coherent thoughts amid a haze of errors are of what you want them to do to you when you when they get back.

You're a new Shinra employee who gets lost in the building while looking for a microwave to heat up your lunch. You encounter AGSZC/Turks/execs during your search. Describe their various levels of helpfulness. 😀
Cloud: Tries to be helpful but also accidentally makes it worse. "You're looking for a microwave? I can help! Follow me." He confidently leads you down three different hallways, up a flight of stairs, and past several doors he shouldn't have access to but somehow does. After about fifteen minutes, you realize he's lost. He won't admit it. Frowning at the directory map like it's a philosophical riddle. "Strange. I could've sworn it was near the gym..." Eventually, he just sighs, tells you "sometimes we have to accept our circumstances" and walks away. You never get to heat up your lunch and now you've suffered -20 confidence.
Sephiroth: Useless, but in an elegant way. He stares at you like you've just asked him to explain quantum physics, then his gaze drifts into the distance as if contemplating the meaning of existence itself. "A… microwave?" You repeat the question. He considers it deeply, like he's never once in his life had to think about the existence of a microwave. Which, to be fair, he probably hasn't. "That is beyond my expertise. Try the cafeteria." You check the cafeteria. There is no microwave. The lunch lady cackles at you. You return to the hallway, and Sephiroth is gone. Vanished. Never to be seen again.
Reeve: Extremely helpful, but there are consequences. "Oh! A microwave? Okay, follow me!" He personally walks you to the break room, making small talk, and waits while you heat your food. You are grateful. Finally, someone normal. Then you turn around. Cait Sith is standing there. Staring at you. Grinning. "Yer wee lunch smells like somethin' a chocobo dragged in!" You nearly drop your food. You wonder if you were drugged. "Hope ye enjoy it, pal! Wouldnae be me first choice, but hey, some folks got no taste!" You leave in terror.
Reno & Rude: Different approaches, same chaos. Reno goes "Oh yeah, there's one in the Turk lounge. Follow us." They do lead you to a microwave. However, it is very clearly stolen from another department, has a questionable stain inside, and occasionally sparks when it runs. Reno tells you "It's got personality." Rude tells you "Don't worry about the weird noise." Your lunch explodes one minute later.
Tseng: Too busy for this nonsense but actually helps. You approach Tseng while he's reviewing documents. He listens patiently as you ask where the microwave is. Then, without breaking stride, he calls someone on his PHS. "Elena, please escort an employee to the nearest kitchen facility." He hangs up. Elena appears out of nowhere. She walks you to the break room, smiling the entire time, and leaves before you can even thank her.
Rufus: Too rich to care. Rufus blinks at you like you've just asked him where to find peasant food. "A microwave? I've never used such appliance in my life." You confirm. He sighs, rubs his temples, and just gestures vaguely toward the hallway. "Ask the help." You do not find the microwave. You do not find the help. You do, however, find Darkstar, who follows you for the next hour and politely begs for some of your lunch.
Hojo: Dear god, why did you ask him? You were desperate. You made a mistake. "Hmph. You require heat? Intriguing. Perhaps you should consider alternative methods of molecular excitation. There is a reactor chamber on the lower levels that could perform the task at a much more efficient—" You run. You don't stop running. You eat your food cold.
Genesis: Turns this into a critique of your food choices. He gasps when he sees what you're holding. "You're going to eat that?" You explain that yes, you were planning to. He looks disgusted. "Absolutely not. Do you want to die before Act V is discovered?" Then he picks up your lunch and throws it directly into the trash. "Come. We're going to the cafeteria. I will not let you disgrace yourself with that excuse for a meal." You have no choice but to follow him. You do, however, end up with a very fancy lunch.
Zack: Has zero patience for this and decides to improvise. "A microwave? Pfft, who has time for that?" Before you can stop him, he grins, holds up a hand, and casts Fire. Directly at your lunch. Your lunch ignites. "—oh!" He frantically pats it down, nearly burning his hands in the process. The entire hallway now smells like charred failure. "Okay, okay, so that didn't work—but it was a cool idea, right?" He ends up buying you something from the vending machine as an apology.
Angeal: Has made it his life mission to find you a microwave. The moment you ask, Angeal gives you a serious nod. "A hot meal is important. No one should have to eat cold food." Then he dedicates himself entirely to the task. You have never seen a man take a quest this seriously. He interrogates security guards. He questions other SOLDIERs. He even asks Lazard about the corporate policies on employee kitchen access. "Shinra should be providing more break room amenities." Lazard disagrees and points out the several microwave incidents that have happened at SOLDIER alone. Angeal and Lazars start going at it, arguing. You stand there awkwardly. You require help.

Chapter 2 - To The Brig With Ye
Step 1: Get Heat on your side.
WC: 4.5k
Masterlist | AO3 | Chapter 1
Tumblr media
You were surprised to wake up at all when you came to, in what you assumed was some sort of infirmary. The room tilted back and forth slightly, so you assumed you must still be on the ship at the very least. Your eyes fluttered open, finding a face suddenly far too close to your own.
“AHH!” you and Heat both shouted at once, the blue haired man scurrying backwards.
“Heat, for fucks sake I told you not to hover in her face like that!” A feminine voice scolded. You groaned as you tried to sit up, seeing a blue haired woman, her hair wild with spikes that looked like horns, a small set of round glasses, and a black dress bearing some sort of stylized cross. House. She was using a pipette to drip some sort of dark red liquid onto your exposed wound, which looked and felt nowhere near as bad as you thought it would, considering how deep the knife had gone. Your confusion was explained away as the red droplets hit your skin and you watched the flesh begin to sew itself closed, but it only brought up more questions in its place. You'd never seen something like that in One Piece, but then again this world was vast and strange, and people did always seem to heal fast here.
“Sorry, one more minute,” House spoke to you, drawing up more crimson into the pipette and dripping it onto the wound, the last sliver of open wound mending itself closed. “Okay, all done.”
“Uh thanks, House right?” You asked her, running your hand over the healed flesh, not even feeling a scar. It was like nothing had happened at all, save for the rouge red drips of whatever she'd used that remained on your skin before she hurriedly wiped it away with a damp cloth.
“Um, yes,” she replied unsurely, looking to Heat for clarity as she removed her latex gloves and threw them in a nearby bin. She'd seen the entire exchange on the deck, nobody had told you her name, and yet you somehow knew it. House didn't have a bounty poster, as the doctor of the Kid Pirates she hardly ever left the ship, so while it was understandable that you knew who the big four were, there shouldn't have been anyway you knew her name. “I'm gonna go let the captain know she's awake,” she addressed Heat, a distinct nervous tone to her voice, before scurrying out of the room, leaving you alone with the tall man, who shifted his weight between his feet awkwardly.
“What's your name?” He asked shyly.
“[Y/n],” you smiled.
“[Y/n]...” he repeated to himself, a slight blush to his cheeks, “Did you mean what you said?”
“What bit?” You rubbed your eyes with the palm of your hand, trying to piece together what had happened between getting hit by a bus and getting stabbed. “Oh, the sex dream stuff? Absolutely, baby” you winked at him, making him blush even more.
“No!” He choked on his breath, hands waving in defence, “I meant- the isekai bit!!”
“Ohhhhhh,” you blinked slowly, “I mean it's my best explanation for what happened. I'm like ninety-nine percent sure I got hit by a bus, and now I'm here. This whole world is supposed to be fictional, if this is just a dream then I shouldn't have been able to feel pain, but I certainly fucking felt it”
“And that's why you knew House's name?” He asked, stepping a little closer to the edge of the bed.
“Oh, it didn't even occur to me that I shouldn't know it,” you hummed, taking a moment to properly observe the room you were in now. It was darkly decorated in blacks and forest greens, the occasional violet pop of colour, none of the usual sterile whites and creams you'd expect of an infirmary, with two oversized beds (likely meant for larger crewmates), one of which you were currently laying in. Each bed had a side table, a table on wheels that fit over the bed, and a small plain chair for visitors. The whole room was almost a semi circle, save for the section missing on one side where you could see a door, likely to a bathroom. The opposite corner along the flat wall held cabinets and a counter, probably filled with medical supplies, with a small desk in front of it, a chair either side likely for doctor and patient. The beds were also along the flat wall, with a door to your left and another door in the centre of the curved wall in front of you, a small, green velvet couch to its left. The anime and manga had never shown the internals of the ship, but the curved walls and round portholes along them made you wonder if you were inside the forecastle, just behind the large dinosaur skull that acted as a figurehead for the ship. Your eyes came back to Heat, who stood next to your bed, waiting expectantly for an answer. “Yeah I mean, she's not really a well known character, but I guess you could say I'm a big Kid Pirates fan, so I remember a few more obscure characters.”
“From… a manga, you said, right?”
“Yeah. You're familiar with the isekai trope?” you didn't feel like explaining that it was an anime too, you weren't even sure if this world had cartoons.
“I am,” he mused, “and I guess weirder things have happened in this world. But we're gonna need proof, and I don't know how I'm gonna convince Kid”
You thought on that for a moment, “I think I can provide proof,” you mused, “has the crew been to Sabaody yet?”
“No, we're close though,” he told you hesitantly, not sure how much information he should reveal while he not so subtly eyed your body; you'd all but forgotten you were naked. You probably should have covered yourself up but it felt like a bit of a too little, too late situation. The whole crew had probably seen your tits at this point, not that it bothered you much. It wouldn't hurt to placate him either, it would be good to know at least one person on the crew had a fondness for you when it came to convincing Kid to keep you alive. If things really went tits up here you could always try your luck with the Straw Hats, but given the timing that would be difficult, you would have to stay on Sabaody for two years before you could try and join them. Maybe Shakky would let you stay with her in the meantime. Your preference though was to stay with the Kid Pirates, your favourite One Piece crew, and usually the subject of your sexy dreams and explicit fanfiction searches.
Heavy footsteps outside caught both of your attentions, Heat taking a few steps back to stand at a more respectful distance as the infirmary door flew open. Unsurprisingly, Kid stomped in, followed by Killer, and Wire, who shut the door behind him. Kid stood at the end of your bed, looking at you discerningly, an angry scowl on his face.
“Talk,” he said plainly.
“Boss, I think I can explain,” Heat told him, “what she said about isekai, I don't think she's from this world”
“The fuck is ‘isekai’” he growled, billowing his cape up so he could sit on the couch without catching it underneath him. Killer and Wire stood at either side of him like guard dogs, unsure of your capabilities, weary given the fact you'd appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the sea without a devil fruit power to get you here. There was no way of telling what powers you had or how you might suddenly use them.
“It's a trope, in manga,” Heat tried to explain, “the protagonist is sent to another world. Usually they die and get reincarnated, or some sort of god sends them there, to a usually fantasy world. I think that's what happened here, she claims she knows us because we're fiction in her world, and that she appeared here after she died in her world. Its a classic isekai premise.”
“Bullshit, she knows us from our bounty posters,” Kid huffed, unconvinced by Heats explanation.
“She knew House's name,” Heat replied. There was a pregnant silence as Kid considered that, his eyes flicking between you and Heat.
“Okay, so she's… from another world. If I chose to believe that,” Kid grumbled, “and she knows us because what? We're a comic book or some shit? They got comic books about the great Eustass ‘Captain’ Kid over there?”
“Well… they're not really about you per say,” you replied delicately, knowing the truth would piss him off.
“Then who the fuck could they be about?” Kid puffed up his chest, “why would they write about anyone other than the future King of Pirates?”
“They're uh… about Monkey D. Luffy…” you replied quietly. “Not that you're not also a very popular character!” You quickly added.
“STRAW HAT?” Kid roared, spooking you as he suddenly stood, “fucking STRAW HAT gets a comic book? Nah, fuck that, put this lying bitch in the brig.”
“Wait! Wait!” You quickly shouted, climbing further up the bed to avoid Killer's reaching hands, “I can prove it! I can tell you what'll happen when you get to Sabaody!”
“Sabaody is weeks out,” Kid huffed, “I ain't waitin’ for your lyin’ ass to be proven wrong so you can sit around in the meantime and find an opening to kill one of us. Devil fruit or no, you were obviously sent here to stop the best competition for finding the One Piece”
“Really? You think someone sent me here naked? Slammed me against the mast, no weapons, no devil fruit, no fighting skills, to kill you?” You rolled your eyes, “I can give you other proof, I can”
“Then fucking give me your proof, mouse,” Kid growled, the bed creaking as he leaned over you, his hands either side of your body. He probably wanted to intimidate you with his large form, but really it only served to make you a little horny.
“Killer wears purple lipstick,” you hurriedly shouted, the first thing that popped into your head as you searched for information only they should know. The room went silent before Kid suddenly wrapped a hand around your throat. He squeezed it threateningly, then he threw you back with a frustrated growl, letting you go as he moved to leave the room. He gave Killer a knowing look before turning back to Heat.
“Chain her in the brig,” Kid hissed, “I don't know where she learned that but I don't fucking trust her. Put her in iron too, there must be some trick, witch or some shit”
There was a flurry of movement as you were again left alone with Heat, Killer sparing you an unreadable look before slamming the infirmary door, clearly angry. You didn't like that you had to expose him like that, even if everyone in the room likely already knew that information, but it was him or you, and you had to act in self defence. Not that it'd helped in the end though either, as Heat apologetically dragged you off the bed and clamped your arms behind your back, wrapping one large hand around both of your small wrists at once to secure you as he led you out of the room.
Eyes followed you silently as you were led across the deck, still naked as the day you were born, revealing you had in fact been in the forecastle. Heat took you directly across to the rear of the ship, opening a door and leading you through a galley. The short view you got of the galley revealed a long room, with a serving window and counter on the left that peeked through to a moderately sized industrial looking kitchen. On the right was some sort of stage at the very end of the room, short stairs on either side leading up to the platform that currently held a long table surrounded by six chairs, a small liquor bar behind it. On the main floor between you and the stage were five long tables, a bench style seat along either side. The walls were decorated in band posters, bounty posters, photos of the crew together, newspaper clippings and all manner of souvenirs pinned to the walls, covering them in what spoke of a crew that acted more like a family, with many happy memories together all memorialised along the dining hall walls.
Heat led you to a staircase at the left of the room, following you down into a hall that was noticeably colder than above, likely due to being particularly below sea level. There was a short hall that split into two longer ones, they looked as though they made a loop around a center set of rooms, the walls lined with doors, no doubt bedrooms and storage rooms. He didn't lead you down either of the long halls, instead taking you to the end of the short one where a steep staircase, practically a ladder, led even further down to the hull of the ship. Heat gave you a little shove forward and you took the hint with a sigh, at least thankful that he'd let go of your wrists now so you could climb down.
You waited patiently at the bottom of the ladder beside a closed door as Heat climbed down after you. He fiddled with a set of keys that hung from his belt, unlocking the door and opening it, beckoning you to pass through. Inside was a series of cells, four in total, with iron bars at their fronts, each with a set of bare bunk beds with thin, stained mattresses, and a metal bucket in the corner, likely in lieu of a toilet. Unexpectedly, each cell was also trimmed in what looked like some sort of ancient symbols written along the floors and walls, a dark rusty colour that made you wonder if they were written in blood. The writing looked like something straight out of a dark fantasy show, with the occasional recognizable pentagram or latin in neat cursive letters. The doors to all four cells were open, seemingly unoccupied, and Heat gestured for you to enter the second, which sat directly across from a small desk, decorated only with a plain wooden chair and simple lamp.
You stood inside the cell, shivering as the air was considerably colder now that you were well under sea level, chilled by the cold ocean around you. The walls and floors offered no warmth, plated in what appeared to be stone, seastone perhaps. The wall behind the desk was lined with hooks holding multiple sets of cuffs in different styles. Heat selected a set of iron cuffs, with only three links between each wrist, and you sighed as you willingly held your hands out for him. There was no point fighting it, and forcing Heat to subdue you would only go against your plans to bring him to your side.
“Sorry about this,” he said softly as he closed the cuffs around your wrists. His hands were so warm against yours, reminding you of your current frigid situation.
“Can I have a blanket or something?” you pleaded, giving him your best puppy dog eyes.
“I.. I don't know if I'm allowed,” Heat replied, a tint of sadness to his voice.
“Maybe we can trade?” You offered, “I.. I only have my body, but maybe I can give you something in return for a blanket?” Was whoring yourself out a good idea? Probably not, given the circumstances, but you'd freeze to death down here if you didn't at least try. Besides, its not like you didn't want to fuck Heat. At this point you didn't have high hopes for surviving this world, but if you got laid with one of your favs then maybe it'd be at least a tiny bit redeemable.
“A trade?” He raised a brow, “like what?”
“What do you want?” You asked him, using your best sultry voice, experimentally pressing a hand to his chest and running it down slowly, pleasantly surprised when he didn't shy away from you. He shivered at the touch, your skin bare against his as your hand reached the bottom of his corset.
“Fuck, okay,” he growled, looking back at the door to the brig to check he had shut it, “on your knees, for a blanket”
“Yes sir,” you purred, perhaps a little too eager for Heat's dick. You would have traded a blowjob for a corn chip, if you were being honest with yourself. You fell to your knees slowly, trailing your fingertips down his midriff till they caught on the belt of his baggy pants. Raised on your knees, you could barely reach the flesh of his abdomen with your mouth as you hooked your fingers in the metal loops on his belt and used it as leverage to lower his pants, pressing your lips to the newly exposed flesh. He made a sharp exhale as your tongue came out to run over the V that led to his cock, pulling his pants down teasingly slowly and looking up at him with sultry eyes as his hand buried in your hair. Finally his pants lowered enough to expose his cock, long and girthy even at half mast, slightly more bulbous at the end with a set of three piercings along the underside, another at the tip, and a base of blue public hair, slightly darker than the hair on his head. He shivered as the cool air touched his exposed cock, quickly overruled by a groan as you took it in your bound hands and pumped the base, promptly becoming erect from your firm, warm touch.
“You have no idea how badly I've wanted to do this,” you purred, pressing your tongue to the tip, playing with the piercing and rolling your tongue over the fat head of his dick. He groaned as you took the end in your mouth, only taking a third of him as you began to bob your head, stroking the rest with your hand as you slowly adjusted and took a little more with each movement.
“Oh fuck, that's good,” Heat groaned, his hold on your hair tightening as you slowly worked towards taking all of his impressive length into your eager mouth, drool starting to drip down your chin as you focused on not gagging, breathing through your nose to suppress your natural urges. Your eyes watered as he started to hit the back of your throat, his hips making small thrusts in time with your movements, trying his best to hold back from just grabbing your skull and face fucking you. He'd been pent up for a while now, with a long stint between islands with working women, and a distinct lack of women in the meantime who were willing to risk their safety to sleep with the tall, stitched up man. By all accounts he looked terrifying to most women, so your willingness to get on your knees was certainly a nice surprise, seemingly having no issue with the way he looked. He felt bad at first for taking advantage of you, but the way you kept eye contact and hollowed your cheeks around his cock told him you wanted this, that the blanket was just an excuse to get in his pants. Really he should be the one feeling used, but he couldn't bring himself to feel anything but euphoric with the divine way your mouth was working his cock.
You paused as your nose hit his pubes, your now idle hands coming up to play with his balls, gagging a little as you swallowed around his cock. “Ohhhh fuck,” Heat groaned, looking down at you with his dick fully burried in your hot wet mouth. “Look at you, taking it like a proper slut, you like that huh? Like having my cock down your throat?”
You pulled off his cock with a pop as your thighs rubbed together in a desperate need for friction, you wouldn't be surprised if you were dripping on the floor at this point from how wet you were. “I'd like it better in my cunt,” you replied, stroking him with both hands, hoping above all that he'd take the bait and fuck you silly.
“Yeah? And what would you want to trade for that, huh?” He growled, wondering what game you were playing to be so willing, questioning whether this really was just a trick.
“One of your blankets,” you purred, running your tongue up the underside of his cock and feeling the piercings roll against it. “I want one that smells like you”
“Why are you so obsessed with me?” Heat replied, genuinely taken aback by your answer. He'd never known a woman to want him that bad, let alone just want something that smelt like him. It was making him feel sparks of something unfamiliar, possessiveness perhaps, fondness definitely.
“Because you're sweet, and you're sexy, you're one of my favourites,” you shrugged, “are you gonna fuck me or not? The stone is hurting my knees and my cunt is fucking dripping”
“Fuck,” Heat huffed, pulling you by your hair to stand and crashing his mouth against yours, groaning as he found you more than willing to return his affections. He walked you backwards until your body was flush with the cell wall, nipping at your bottom lip before he pulled away and spun you to face the wall. You arched your back and stuck your butt out for him, your tits squished against the stone as Heat admired your round ass. He gave it a playful spank, making you whine, before he grabbed handfuls of your ass cheeks and pulled them apart to admire your soaked pussy. “Fuck, you weren't lying, you're really fucking wet”
Unable to resist a taste, he knelt behind you and buried his face in your center, motorboating your cunt, your slick coating his face. He groaned against your pussy as his tongue zeroed in on your clit, making you moan and push back against him. His hands held your ass firmly, squeezing it to keep you in place as he sucked and lapped at your clit, before standing back up, running his tongue over your entrance and asshole as he moved.
“So fucking wet for me, so sweet too,” he groaned, taking his cock in his hand and lining it up with your needy entrance, your hips wiggling as you whined pleadingly. “Hold still, fuck,” you only managed to still for a moment before he pressed in, bullying his tip inside you and stretching your underprepared cunt wide. “Ah fuck, so tight,” he grunted as he slid inside you, bringing one hand to your mouth to clamp over it and muffle your sounds as you began to scream at the stretch.
His fingers slid into your mouth and you sucked them greedily, moaning around them as he bottomed out inside you. “Good girl, fuck, good little slut,” he groaned, giving you only a moment to adjust before he was dragging back out again, leaving only his tip inside you as he slammed back in. His fingers left your mouth so he could hold your hips firmly, fucking you hard and fast with the intention of making you both cum quickly before anyone caught you in the act, his cock heavy against your g-spot and stimulating it deliciously with every hard thrust he made. Your palms were flat against the wall, holding you steady as your body took the brunt of each impact, breasts grazing on the stone wall and drool transfering to the cool surface as Heat fucked you mercilessly.
He pulled you a little away from the wall, your tits now bouncing with every thrust as they hung freely until Heat reached underneath you and grabbed them, pulling you up and holding you with your back flush to his chest, one hand groping your tits still while the other wrapped around your throat, slowly travelling upwards till his fingers were buried in your mouth again, muffling your moans against the wet slapping of his body against yours. His teeth grazed your neck, wishing he could sink his fangs into you as they grew in his mouth, canines extending unbeknownst to you and running over your skin, knowing if he made a mark he would be caught. He was having trouble keeping in control of himself as you sucked on his fingers and your pussy fluttered around his cock, gummy walls clamping down around him as your eyes rolled back and you came on his cock without warning. A creamy ring formed around his base as he kept fucking you hard, chasing his own high now and trying to figure out where would be appropriate to cum.
“Get on your knees again,” he ordered, pulling his fingers from your mouth and withdrawing his throbbing cock from your cunt. You dropped to your knees willingly, opening your mouth invitingly for him with your tongue stuck out. He considered just jerking himself off over your face, painting your pretty fucked out expression with his cum, but worried about your inability to clean yourself off down here, so instead he shoved his cock down your throat, holding your hair with both hands as he began to use you rougher than he intended. You moaned around him at the surprising treatment, eyes streaming with unintentional tears as his cock gagged you with every hard thrust, until he finally stilled with his shaft balls deep in your mouth and you felt the hot cum pouring down your throat, his hands pulling your hair while he grunted. You shivered at the feeling, almost cumming again from it, playing with your oversensitive clit as he unloaded in your mouth. He pulled away slowly, the last drops of cum spilling against your tongue as you licked the tip. He slapped your cheek with his softening cock, giving you an appreciative grin as he slid his finger into your still open mouth and played with your tongue.
“I hope Kid decides not to kill you,” he mused as he helped you to your feet, pinning you against the wall again, his hand running up your thigh and hip till it came to rest at your waist. “Would be a real shame to waste a good set of holes like that”
“Tell him to come try me himself, maybe that'll convince him,” you suggested, “unless you wanna keep me all to yourself”
“Mm, tempting,” he mused, running a thumb over your bottom lip, “I don't mind sharing though, besides, I doubt I could keep you to myself even if I wanted to if one of the others decided they wanted a turn. Maybe we'll make you our ship whore”
“I'm not opposed to that,” you purred. Heat made a huff and started stepping away.
“Fuck, you really are a Kid Pirate fan huh?” He laughed, “I'll get you your blanket, but be a good girl and behave yourself until I can convince Kid to let you go”
“I'll be on my best, naughtiest behaviour,” you winked, shivering a little now that you didn't have his warm body to keep you heated. He frowned as he watched you shiver, realising how much you really did need the blanket.
“I'll find you some clothes too,” he said softly before turning to leave, disappearing before you even had a chance to respond.

SPUR OF THE MOMENT
nagi caught your eye, simply by doing absolutely nothing. you weren't sure whether to call him an idiot or a genius.
Tumblr media
you stared at the leaderboard.
in first place read the user: "SEICHOKI" in big, bold letters as if to mock you.
what the fuck?
for weeks, you'd been at the top of space invader's leaderboard, unrivaled by any other with your score of 87,598.
until now.
funnily enough, it's not like this "seichoki" beat you by hundreds of points, no. next to the user, by the hi-score tab, blinked the 87,600 in red.
it was a difference of 2 points.
all of the scores below your name were the same scores that had been present for over a year.
they were old, bland, and low.
it's not like many people ever pick this game anyway; it's old, objectively difficult, and looks rather unassuming compared to all the other attractions in the arcade.
so naturally, this irked you more than it would've if it had been any other game.
you exchanged a few crumpled dollar bills for a stack of coins.
─────────────────────────────────────────
you'd grown accustomed to the game's "heartbeat rhythm."
you timed your movements, moving from shelter to shooting as you moved forward. shelter to out, shelter to out, shelter to out. a process repeated quickly.
just a few more points.
you click. you move out of the shelter. "faster than fast, quicker than quick. i am lightning..."
"wise words. who'd you steal them from?"
"unwise of you to assume i stole them." you kept your gaze on the screen, but you already knew who the voice beside you was. "shouldn't you be helping little kids find their parents or something, hiori?"
he kept watching you play, and you could feel the silent judgment from his stare.
it was all fun and games, though. he was one of the first friends you'd made outside of school. his first few days on the job. you visited the arcade more often than you'd like to admit, meaning you were bound to make him owe you a favor at some point. you were either an angel sent from heaven or the devil itself straight out of hell. even to this day, hiori wasn't sure which you were.
NEW HIGHSCORE: 87,615
"... lightning mcqueen." you narrowed your eyes, but kept your focus on the game, not faltering once. "thank lighting mcqueen"
"you've been hogging the machine for the past hour."
please. nobody actually plays this."
"except for the guy who beat you."
"so it's a guy? do you know him"
"sort of. he was here with a guy i know. mikage reo, a new investor."
"well, are they coming again?"
"reo, yes. his friend? probably, or probably not."
─────────────────────────────────────────
you watched his playing style.
as it turns out, he did come back.
a few minutes ago, you'd started helping hiori organize the candy shelves in the gift shop. two people walked inside the gift shop area: a guy with purple hair, and one with white hair. the purple-haired one introduced himself as reo mikage, so you could infer the white-haired one was the so-called "seichoki".
this was further proven whenever you showed reo where hiori was, and on your way back, you noticed the white-haired boy was inserting coins into the space invaders machine. you slowly walked towards him, focusing on his screen.
so now,
it was down to the last few invaders and--
he followed a fast-moving group of invaders, shooting as he did.
are you an idiot? you wanted to ask. what he was doing was a perfect way to run into missiles.
"do you always play like that?" you couldn't help but ask.
he didn't respond immediately, which made you think he was ignoring you at first. but after a few moments, he finally responded, soundly uninterested.
"like what?"
"with that strategy" (if you could even call it one)
"what strategy?" a hint of confusion met his tone.
he's got to be kidding.
"never really needed one for this game," he added
you weren't sure whether to call him an idiot or a genius.
through the corner of his eye, he noticed your expression "it's about wiping them out as efficiently as possible, right?".
NEW HIGHSCORE: 92,105
your eyes widened slightly as you stared at the screen, "how is that even -"
the leaderboard screen popped up, his username now topping yours, once again.
"oh. are you the other player?" he asked
you nodded.
for a moment it looked like he had something to say, but that went away once someone called out, "nagi!"
you both turned to see that it was reo. there was a bewildered expression on his face once he noticed you and nagi had been conversing, though only for a split second. a smile grew on his face as he waited for nagi back at the entrance.
"gotta go." nagi said as he collected his tickets from the machine. he stood still for a moment as if yet again contemplating something else.
"good luck" he muttered as he passed by you, but you couldn't help but wonder if you imagined it.
as if you needed it.
you nudged the control in the direction the missile came from to avoid a missile dropped, while finally reaching the last few invaders.
you waited in the middle of the screen, firing where the invaders came from
again: forward, then shelter. shoot. then shelter again. again and again until--
the BGM faded like a broken record and the screen turned black.
it was as if the world was conspiring against you. you wondered if nagi somehow knew this would happen. if not, it was stupendously ironic that this happened after his good luck wish.
you turned to look for hiori, your only help.
good news: it can be fixed.
bad news: it has to be fixed.
"how long will it take?"
"i don't know." hiori sighed. "you are aware this game is kind of old anyway?"
"so?"
─────────────────────────────────────────
so.
you walked back into the arcade the next week, heading straight toward the space invaders machine.
there was already another figure standing right in front of the...pitch black screen.
"great." you mumbled in disappointment.
the figure turned around. it was nagi, a twizzler in his hand. you recognized it was the jumbo twizzlers from the gift shop.
aa you got closer, you noticed the 'OUT OF ORDER' sign which had been placed on top of the machine's screen.
"did you know that would happen?"
"no." he opened another twizzler.
"then why did you wish me luck?"
"i mean, the machine was making weird noises. but the good luck was just good luck."
you heard a familiar sigh coming from behind you and nagi.
hiori sighed, "listen. you didn't hear it from me, but as a temporary replacement, a new installment is coming soon"
you and nagi turned to look at hiori, at equal speed.
"for what game?" you asked for both you and nagi. his expression said he was equally as curious.
"i'm not supposed to speak about it yet."
hiori senses your disappointment, but of course, he also didn't want to lose his job.
"isn't it better as a surprise anyway? it's more fair that way" he tried to reason.
it really didn't make it more or less fair, but you still nodded in defeat.
you turned to look at nagi "until next time, then." because of course, you still wanted to beat him.
he glanced at you for a second, through the blurred reflection of the black screen. "yep." he shrugged. surely enough, he was looking forward to it.
—————♡—————
before he made it to the exit, you called out his name.
he didn't turn, but he stopped walking, which indicated he was listening.
"are you busy?"
"nope."
"wanna do something else?" you asked, with a bit of courage on your side.
he was silent for a few moments before responding, "sure."
you began walking towards the exit.
"good. 'cause i know this one candy store, and it's got way better candy than those twizzlers you're always having."

JIMIN CAME HOME!!!!!!!
Tumblr media
Hello ARMY, this is Jimin. I enlisted in December two years ago, and now, two years have already passed. I've been serving in the military for about a year and two months now, and honestly… time seems to flow differently here. It’s not always easy, but because there are things I’m learning and experiencing, I’m looking forward to the days when I can talk with you all and share fun stories about everything that’s happened. Hmm… my daily life hasn’t changed much. Since it’s the military, I go through training, work, exercise, and before I know it, the day is over, and it's time to sleep. I’m living through a routine that repeats itself every day. But one thing that has changed since the new year is the conversations Jungkook and I have before going to bed. Since the days until we meet ARMY again are getting closer, we've been talking a lot about what we need to prepare before that moment arrives, what kind of image we want to show, and what kind of lives we will live moving forward. To be honest, there is also a bit of fear. It’s been quite a long time since we last performed together, and it’s been a while since we fully dedicated our time to the stage and music. So yes, there is a little fear, but one thing that hasn’t changed is our determination to give you the best performance when we return. We’ll prepare diligently—really. We’ll work hard and come back in our best form. To our ARMY, whom I miss and am endlessly grateful for, Until the day we meet again, please stay healthy and may every day be filled with happiness. Wishing you lots of luck in the new year, ARMY. I love you. Truly.
GUYS THE WAY I SCREAMED I AM NOT OK I'M ACTUALLY TREMBLING
Ok so when Jimin comes home, it might not be often, but when he does, it's HUGE!
This letter is honestly a lot and I'm not going to be very coherent.
So basically he's going through the day, doing what he must do, like a routine (as expected) but my takeaway is that the one constant is Jimin & Jungkook talking when the day ends.
Oh, boy.
So you're telling me our boys are having deep conversations at night about their future now 😭 omg what do I do with that information.
I don't know about you but Jimin articulated his letter so well I instantly felt the irrevocable WEIGHT of his statements.
Like, what they talk about is serious, it's deliberate, it will probably change how they handle things when they come out. We're talking big life questions, expectations, dreams & desires, public image.
Like how do we go from here? After everything. Who do we want to be? As individuals, & as a couple?
I know I shouldn't be shocked, it was bound to happen, but even then I'm still 😭 not ok he's saying it this plainly.
"What kind of life we want to live moving forward"
This phrase shook me to my fucking core. I let out an inhumane scream. What kind of life? WHAT KIND OF LIFE?
Fucking hell. It's exhilirating and scary just thinking about it.
Anticipation grows through the roof.
He said he's going to tell us things when he comes out so I'm glad.
Because I only need to know, to see, with their words, and their bodies, what is their state of mind. I'm so fucking curious to know what they are thinking about. I'm dying inside, I don't want to wait. This is killing me.
I think I'm waiting for the tiniest sign that they are ok, that they will be, that they feel good, that we don't need to worry. I DON'T KNOW??? The unknown is so very scary and unpredictable. Not knowing is what's worse.
But they are together and they talk together of their future, a future that I'm sure will also include the other in some type or form.
I'm now more than ever positive on a jikook subunit next. Might be small, but I'm sure they thought of something.
& They thought of AYS, too. I know it.
Maybe also about how they will move in together? One can only hope.
This letter fills me with joy.
Jimin is such a wonderful person & his words always hit right.
Having fear is a normal thing. The future is always worst in our head than in reality, and projecting things too much onto it can only create anxiety. But I'm not worried - about that. They will manage to give us amazing performances I have no doubt. I just hope they don't put too many expectations on themselves, because they don't need to. I trust them to do their best and it's already enough.
What kind of image will they be showing moving forward? They were ready to already risk it all before with AYS. How things will change?
What kind of person will they show?
This is all so very exciting guys 😭
So many possibilities.
When they come out I will be clinging to my seat holding my breath with my fingers crossed 😭
Ahhh, we need to be patient. This is hard.
I'm so glad Jimin seems to be well. That they are both well.
I need to let everything sink in. And reflect on it.
I think soon a lot will be happening, and I want to be here for ALL of it. I'll continue to write silly posts about it.
But I'm positive, the future will be bright, and I think everything will be ok.
They are writing it as we speak, and I believe it is meant to be, as always, together.
Wishing them good luck 💜

the meaning behind "face the raven" theme in "wild blue yonder" and more
a continuation of this post. i need to talk about this otherwise i'll explode.
some people have also said that this theme is playing in "last christmas" and "hell bent" (thank you for pointing that out, i'm going to die) which makes it all even worse (better). therefore, this post is, more or less, destined to turn into capaldi's era brainrot. but not all of it, i promise.
you've been warned.
first of all, allow me to refresh your memory. let's look into the context of the scenes where we heard this music theme before.
"last christmas"
according to series 8 official soundtrack, this theme is a part of "every christmas is last christmas" and is heard quite clearly two times. they're both important scenes for the doctor and clara.
Tumblr media
too late.
a moment full of regrets and nostalgia. the doctor thinking he's lost clara again, wishing he would have come back sooner. clara reminicing her life without the doctor in it.
"so no one matched up to danny, eh?" "there was one other man, but that would never have worked out." "why not?" "he was impossible."
it is (heavily) implied that "one other man" is the doctor. does the doctor himself realise that she's talking about him? open for interpretation. but what this small exchange truly does is showing a game of saying something without actually saying it.
"can you really see no difference in me?" "clara oswald, you will never look any different to me."
yet another way of dancing around words. there's something special and touching about this last line. it is sort of a confession of unconditional love. but the word itself - love - is never spoken out loud.
then again, twelfth might be face blind.
Tumblr media
second chances.
now, this scene is a complete opposite of the one mentioned above. it's full of hope, anticipation, happiness. a beginning of a new arc. he is given a second chance and he takes it. the doctor asks clara to run away with him once again. and she says "yes" without hesitation, takes his hand, kisses him on the cheek.
conclusion? these two scenes are focused entirely on the doctor and clara's relationship. it is there to show their strong connection, how much they mean to one another. utter devastation at the thought of their time ending and the absolute joy of reuniting after being separated. a chance at a happy ending. which also makes the music that plays on the background their theme.
"face the raven"
"every christmas is last christmas" is now turned into "face the raven" and is asocciated with clara's death. it also makes the previous name even more heartwrenching since last christmas was literally clara and doctor's last hurrah. we can hear this piece of music appear in two scenes as well.
Tumblr media
clara's monologue about facing the raven.
"if danny pink can do it so can i. die right. die like i mean it, face the raven. maybe this is what i wanted. maybe this is it. maybe this is why i kept running. maybe this is why i kept taking all those stupid risks, kept pushing it."
she's accepting her fate and aknowleges her recklesness all the way throught the season 9. it was meant to be. there wasn't enough space for two doctors in the tardis.
"i let you get reckless" "why? why shouldn't i be reckless? you're reckless all the bloody time! why can't i be like you?" "clara, there's nothing special about me. i'm nothing but less breakable than you. i should've taken care of you."
this scene is also about how a human life can be so very short compared to the time lord's and how easily it can end. it's fragile. and it's the doctor's curse: bearing the pain of losing his loved ones.
Tumblr media
clara meeting her fate.
as she approaches the raven, ever so brave, the doctor watches her. he hears clara scream, then witness her collapsing onto the ground. it is extremely painful, but this is, i repeat, the doctor's curse: watching his companions leave. there's no use in running away from that pain, it haunts him every step of the way.
"hell bent"
next time, "face the raven" theme can be heard during the memory wipe sequence. there is no name given for the background music in this particular moment, but it's quite obvious it represents loss and... letting go?
Tumblr media
the doctor is about to make clara forget their time together (does that ring a bell, anyone?).
it is worth pointing out that the music becomes the loudest at the exact moment the doctor says:
"look how far i went for fear of losing you. this has to stop. one of us has to go."
it is the culmination of their relationship. companions that push each other to extremes. together they might destroy the whole universe in order to keep each other safe. there's no other way but to separate. they've formed such a strong connection than one is ought to forget the other.
even though at first the doctor is determined to wipe clara's memories, he then admits she is right: it is unfair to take away all that wonderful time they had from her. so he gives her a choice. or, more like, an offer to play a russian roulette. it's either you or me. i'm not going to press that button. we will do this together.
to summarise: all of these moments featured a strong connection between clara and the doctor. it also tells us a story about how hard it is to lose someone you care about deeply, especially for the doctor.
how is it all connected to the doctor and donna?
memory wipe
Tumblr media
the doctor has to make donna and clara forget about him in order to keep them safe. expect that he doesn't give donna a choice, wiping her memory almost instantly, without saying a proper goodbye to her. obviously, he didn't have enough time to think of a better way to solve the problem since donna wouldn't have lasted long. however, it is still a decision he regrets making.
from "the star beast":
"i'm so glad you're back, donna. it killed me, it killed me, it killed me."
if we take a look at clara's situation, it's a bit different. i've already mentioned it above: at first, the doctor wants to do the same thing to clara that he did to donna. make her forget. expect, this time he is confronted for doing so (even threatened, at some point).
"these have been the best years of my life and they're mine."
i think this line triggers something in the doctor. because this is when he realises that this is not the right thing to do. not exactly. he'd already done it once and he regretted it. so this time, he offers a slightly different solution. someone still has to forget, but they'll press that button together. it's a mutual choice.
now, i know it's not entirely related to the dialogue in "wild blue yonder", but i think it's worth mentioning that donna and clara's stories are somewhat similar. i'm sure it's been said before, but it's still important.
donna's story was incomplete because she wasn't given a choice. now, that she remembers, 14th doctor makes sure their time together is worth-while. a second chance just like in "last christams".
too alike
Tumblr media
another similarity between these two stories is that clara and donna are not entirely humans. not anymore.
donna's half timelord. even though her head is still not big enough to fit all the doctor's memories, she still has a part of the doctor in her.
clara's frozen in time, that makes her practically immortal. she risks her life, she reverses the polarity of the neuroblock, she gets her own tardis, she's even reffered to as "clara who" at the end of "hell bent". she has become the doctor in a sense.
but there can only be one doctor. so where's the story heading to at this point, i wonder? but we'll come back to this question later.
"but what really happened?"
before i say anything, it is obvious that the doctor's silence before and after he says "a lot" is him reminicing all that'd happened to him during the 11th, 12th and 13th reincarnations. all of the loss and pain he went through.
Tumblr media
but why "face the raven" theme of all things? it could be a general theme of grief/nostalgia/painful memories, nothing else implied.
but please let me be delusional for a bit longer!
just as that scene in "hell bent" brought the doctor back to the moment he made donna forget him, could it be that bringing back his best friend's memories in a whole universe that "he absolutely loves", also reminded him of another important person in his life with similar story? just like "hell bent" mirrored "the journey's end", "wild blue younder" gave us a reference to "hell bent".
this is where we get back to the question about the current story direction.
foreshadowing?
donna's story is not over. and there are a lot of possibilities how it can end.
say, there is a connection to clara's story here, i wonder if that's where the plot's heading. in one of the trailers, the doctor does say "i'm not sure if i can save you this time" to donna. and it worries me. then again, maybe they're just tricking us into thinking something bad will happen (oh the drama).
i'd say it's unlikely donna's going to die because that would be absolutely devastating after just bringing her back. at the very least, the ending wouldn't be completely "happily ever after". perhaps, sacrifices will be made in order to prevent something truly horrible from happening.
why did this face come back?
in "the girl who died" twelfth doctor finally realises why he got his face. it is a call-back to "the fires of pompei" (don't even get me started on its being the episode with 10th and donna).
Tumblr media
the message the doctor was giving to himself turned out to be:
"i'm the doctor and i save people!"
but what is 14th trying to tell himself?
i think it's about donna and more.
he's fixing his mistake of erasing her memories and depriving her of the right to remember amazing things that'd happened to her.
it's a reminder to actually tell people how much they mean to him. as we can see, 14th's more open with his feelings and constantly shows signs of affection towards his loved ones, even breaking the "never say i love you" rule.
it's about being honest and open with people because they deserve to hear it from him and he deserves to hear it back. because "things happen and then it's too late".
again, take 12th doctor, for instance. he constantly represses his feelings. but in my humble opinion, the reason why he's changed by season 10 was clara. she pulled him out of the dark place. and even though her death almost threw him back to that state again, he is still a better man by season 10.
but there were things left unsaid. love and care were always there but it was never said out loud. kind of the same thing happened with 13th.
i strongly believe that donna is that person for 14th. they're best friends who love each other deeply. and after the doctor lost her and got a second chance to fix everything, he does, he's being affectione. he's finally open with his feelings.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
conslusion: why did you make us read all fo this?
to answer the question in the title: it's all tied with how memories are important and priceless, fixing past mistakes, moving on and learning to treasure every moment with people you care about like it's your last.
it can also be a foreshadowing for something terrible, but i choose to hope for the better.
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──
aaaand that is the end of my doctor who rant. thank you for getting this far, if you did!
my feelings about all of this can be described with this one meme:

I'm so extremely tired of the fuckass take that there needs to be no resolution to Cas's confession. I'm completely serious when I say that every time the writers/actors repeat this, we as a queer community get pushed back decades in terms of representation.
For the sake of clarity and self-preservation, I'm prefacing this by mentioning that I'm a destiel shipper and that I love both Jensen and Misha. This is in no way meant to bash Jensen, but I can't ignore that I've seen a lot of con clips lately that have been burrowing under my skin and it's been sewing seeds of discontent. Simply put, Jensen is just being used as a singular example here of what I'm trying to convey.
"It doesn't need to be talked about," and "Dean accepted it, he took it in, it doesn’t need a resolution," are Jensen's favorite way of skirting around the destiel issue when he's asked about it at conventions. On the surface, it's the perfect non-answer. There was a love confession, one character wasn't able to react at all due to Reasons™, and now everyone can be happy because it's finally out in the air (just don't ever talk about it again because we won't acknowledge it). Alright fine, it's not the worst thing that could've happened with Dean and Cas.
But there's something about the wording of "resolution" that sits wrong. The words resolved and reciprocated are not interchangeable, but that almost seems to be how Jensen and the writers use it. "It doesn't need to be resolved," and "It doesn't need to be reciprocated," have two wildly different meanings. It would be okay if Dean didn't reciprocate Cas's feelings, because that would just be Dean. Yes it would be disappointing, especially considering how the entire last seasons were building up to the confession, but it would at least provide some closure for Cas right before he died. For Cas to know that he was heard and understood, that his feelings were validated despite Dean not feeling the same way.
But that's not what happened. Cas's confession was never resolved. Meaning, he as a character and we as an audience both never got any sort of closure for the 11 season long build-up of their relationship. Cas laid his flayed heart bare for Dean to see, in his most emotionally vulnerable moment throughout the entirety of his time with Dean, and Dean didn't react at all. There was no concrete confirmation one way or the other that Cas's words had reached Dean. There was zero reflection from Dean on his how his relationship with Cas evolved over the years, radio silence on how he felt about knowing he changed Cas's life, and there was even no acknowledgement that Dean took his confession seriously. For all the audience knows, Dean could've dismissed everything that Cas had said with romantic intent as a brotherly love, and if there's room for doubt then there is no true resolution.
To this day, a significant portion of the fanbase writes off the confession as platonic PURELY BECAUSE the scene itself had no closure. Even a simple difference such as changing "I love you," to "I'm in love with you," could've allowed for a more shocked emotional reaction from Dean, and Cas would be positive that Dean understood his true intentions. But Cas can't be positive that Dean knows. And it’s horribly invalidating. It's heartbreaking. Cas had died not ever having a response or acknowledgement to the love that killed him.
And the lesson the he, and we as the queer audience, are supposed to take away from this? Be grateful because at least you got to say it. You should just be happy that you were even allowed to express your love. You shouldn't expect to have your feelings validated in any capacity if you're queer.
You can say I'm exaggerating but I'll leave these lines and you can interpret how you will:
"The one thing I want is something I know I can't have."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Happiness isn't in the having, it's in just being. It's in just saying it."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The general spn staff's attitude towards Cas and their queer audiences here is just deflection, manipulative gaslighting, and the barest minimum amount of representation they could spare without becoming "woke". And I'm done pretending that this was a breakthrough for queer fandom culture when in fact it's just vaguely shitty.

Reality is . . . off
Here's me, screaming into the void. I've got no theory, only Clues.
Reality seems to be acting strangely in Season 2 of Good Omens. Mostly around Aziraphale. My examples:
This season seems to be from Aziraphale's point of view, and all the colors and lighting seem to be very bright and vibrant.
The note from Maggie -- another post on Tumblr (damned if I can find it now) pointed out that she puts her phone down right as Aziraphale comes into her shop for the first time. She seems to be texting him, but the text message arrives to his door as a note in the mail slot because that's how he expects to receive correspondences.
Changing the Bentley into Our Car -- and in the flashback to 1941 that happens after the trip to Edinburgh in the show, the Bently is still a four-door. He changed it and then made it so it always was that way. (There's a line in the book about someone being powerful enough to change something and then make it so it always was that way -- something that's repeated about the Book of Life, too. Hmm . . .) No wonder Crowley just opens up the back door to put his plants in, it's always had a back door at that point! And please don't @ me with the Bently is not a Clue -- the change happens right in scene, on screen. That was not a "they hoped no one would notice" moment. And yes, I know they weren't able to use Mary for the second season. They got a reasonable look-alike, and then changed that car into a four-door. For why??
The Bentley following him when he parks it. People have said, "Oh, yes, the Bentley is sentient, of course!" But it hasn't done anything to show that until after Aziraphale drives it. And don't @ me with the Queen -- the gag in the book says that any album left in a car for more than a fortnight transmogrifies into The Best of Queen. It's not the Bentley doing that, it's just a fact of Queen. (Can confirm.)
Aziraphale is terrible at magic. But somehow, when he really needs to make a trick work, he does it. Oh, yeah, babe? You just put that photo right up your sleeve slick as that? Hm.
That 25 Lazarii miracle. Neither of them expected that. Yet there it was.
The whole ball. He wasn't casting miracles, reality was just -- conforming itself to what he wanted.
Now my point is . . . I don't know. My observation is that reality seems to be following Aziraphale's wishes, and I don't think he even realizes that it shouldn't be. Not entirely. Or is it that he knows reality is re-shaping itself around him, and he's enjoying it?
Reality is not warping around Crowley in the same way, and Crowley seems to be able to feel something's wrong. Coming in waves, like a hangover.
Now, I have heard it said that Neil has also pointed out that our angel and demon warp reality just by existing. Okay, actually makes sense. How could an occult and celestial being not mess with reality without even realizing they're doing it?
Am I chewing on a nothing burger?
Is Aziraphale turned up somehow?
What is going on.

It warms my heart to find another HJP lover out there! 👓⚡️💖 Hopefully if it’s no trouble, what do you think about a fic where the reader, whose in a relationship w/ Harry, has a dream or NDE (near-death experience) where she meets James and Lily and they’re so grateful for her loving Harry & being there for him? Keep up the great work! 👍
ah thank you so much!! and absolutely, I've been meaning to do one like this for awhile now <3
here is . . .
Beyond Our Hearts | Harry Potter
Harry Potter x fem! reader
Summary! In which during the battle of Hogwarts, Y/N L/N has a strange vision of her boyfriends parents while fighting for her life.
Warnings / Content! y/n on the verge of dying, mentions of death and passing, a worried harry but majorly fluff besides that.
Tumblr media
It all happened so quickly.
From throwing as many spells as she possibly could at opposing death eaters to having the world go pitch black, Y/N L/N's life had flashed before her eyes like a bolt of lightning.
She had awoken in a room of nothing but pure light. Looking around the room seemed to shift, one moment nothing but white to the Gryffindor common room, the forest of Dean, the great hall during the Yule ball, it configured itself to places she had known too well.
And as vast as it had originally happened, it had become grimly clear to Y/N what was going on.
"I'm dead," Y/N's voice was a bare breath, as light as a feather but weighted with nothing but despair.
The second those words had escaped her lips her mind had only thought of one thing.
Harry.
How's Harry? Would he be joining me? Does he know? The thoughts were drowning her.
"I've died," She repeated. She felt her eyes begin to water. This couldn't be the end could it? She was barely eighteen this was supposed to be where life truly began, not where it ends.
"Not exactly."
The voice made Y/N jump, the room had changed once more at the action. Now it had set the scenery at an oddly familiar place. It took a moment but Y/N had realized where she had seen it before. It was the Potter's house.
And when she turned around to find the voice that had spoken to her, she was met with the two former occupants.
No way.
Y/N believed she must've gone mad.
She had only ever seen them in pictures and visualized them through Harry's descriptions but it was clear as day who they were.
James and Lily.
Harry's parents stood before her.
Y/N swore she felt her heart stop.
"This isn't death, not yet at least." Lily had spoken, her hand clasped around her husbands. "More so of a limbo, a place between life and death."
"I didn't think we'd be getting to meet so soon, Y/N." James had smiled.
Y/N's mouth had opened but no words had come out. Pure shock was all she had felt in the moment.
"I understand the shock, I've been told even in the afterlife i'm devilishly handsome." James grinned, which earned him a light hit on the shoulder from his wife.
Y/N laughed.
"It's alright to be shocked," Lily said soothingly, she had something so comforting about her that made Y/N feel safe. "Meeting the passed parents of your partner doesn't happen everyday."
"I- I just find this all so hard to believe," Y/N had gotten out through a dry throat.
"And that's perfectly fine." James consoled, "What isn't fine is us having to meet you so soon. I mean you're a lovely girl, Y/N, but you shouldn't be here."
"Wait so does that mean-"
"You can go back to the land of the living?" Lily finished, "Yes."
Y/N had let out a happy breath she hadn't known she was holding. She could go home. She could go back to Harry.
"But before you go back," James said, "There's a reason you're here, with us."
Y/N furrowed her brows, only to relax them moments later. It was strange to have them be the ones to find her in her almost death.
"As of right now Harry had given himself up to Voldemort-"
Y/N's happy heart had faltered. "What?! He's not, he can't-"
"He's alright, Y/N." Lily smiled, "He's alive and well, in fact looking for you. The battle is over."
Y/N let out a sigh of relief. It was all over. Harry was safe.
"Though while giving himself up he was struck with the killing curse." James had told, "And in his last moment, his last thought, was you." James and Lily shared a smile, "We hadn't known at the time of you're arrival here but we both hoped that one day, when you got here, we'd meet you for that reason."
Y/N's mouth went slightly ajar. She was feeling too many things at one time to fully find one to express.
"We've seen you two over the years," Lily confessed to the L/N girl, catching her attention again. "All of the ups and downs, the good and the bad and you two have held together through it all. He cares for you in ways that astonish me. The love he holds for you is one that only the books seem to have."
"The way he looks at you is a way I thought only I could have, when I looked at Lily of course." James interjected for a moment, lightly squeezing Lily's hand.
"A look of pure and unconditional love." Lily smiled. "Harry deserves nothing but that. We never thought we'd be thanking you for giving him that this soon, but this was a chance we figured we'd take."
Lily had let go of James's hand and walked towards Y/N, Y/N had stayed still as she had approached her. Dead and yet so alive at the same time. It was wonderous.
"You have given him nothing but the love he deserves. You've cared for him and looked after him like no other, Y/N. We obviously haven't been around to do that and as much as that may always hurt, it's incredible to know that he has you." Lily expressed to her. "I can speak for both James and I when I say we're so, so grateful you've been there for our Harry. You've given him something so incredible, you've given him a reason to keep going and that's more than we ever could've asked for."
"The world was all we ever wanted for Harry," James spoke, "And though he may never get all of that, you've given him more of that than I thought was possible. I'm thankful he has you to lean on, you to love."
Y/N hadn't expected any of this, she hadn't expected to meet the parents of the boy she had loved so much, stand before them in a place between the living and the dead, but in the moment she couldn't find anywhere else she'd prefer to be besides with Harry himself.
"Now," Lily spoke again, sorrow in her tone. "Harry has just found your body in the living side of the world. And as much as I'd like to continue to thank you for all you've done for our boy, I don't want him to go through so much distress in finding you in this state."
Y/N felt a pang of sadness, she wanted to stay for a little longer, this was too short for her liking. But she belonged with the living, she belonged to live besides Harry and celebrate the end of the a lifelong war.
"Thank you," Y/N spoke, "For having such an amazing boy. Thank you for approving of me."
"Thank you for giving him what we couldn't." James grinned.
"I hope to continue this someday in the far, far future," Lily said softly, "Until then, continue giving our boy the love he deserves."
"I promise to never stop," Y/N assured them happily.
She was met with a joyous nod from James and an even brighter smile from Lily.
And then she awoke.
She was back at Hogwarts, her face covered in soot and dirt. Harry leaning over her.
"Y/N!" He exclaimed, relieved, he seemed to have been doing cpr on her. He embraced her quickly, "I was so worried, oh my love, I'm so happy you're alright."
Y/N had still barely processed the interaction she just had but Harry's hug, his presence in general was enough to wash anything away.
"It's over," He confessed to her, "It's all over, darling."
She couldn't imagine a more blissful feeling. Harry Potter was her happiness, her calm after the storm, it didn't matter what happened next for the two of them.
She was going to keep her promise to Lily and keep loving him, with every star in the galaxy, with every fiber of her being, she knew she'd never stop.
And one day, someday, she'd get to tell them she lived up to it.
