Pro tip for my disabled and chronically ill friends in college: if you have to put a work order in and it is related any bit at all to your disability, write, very clearly in the "describe what needs to get done" section, "This issue is a health hazard," followed by a description of how the issue relates to your disability/chronic illness.

They are required to put it as a high-priority issue and fix it ASAP. Required BY LAW. Yes, I said it. They are legally required to fix these things, both under OSHA regulations and the ADA.

Play the disability card. I'm begging you. DISABLED IS NOT A BAD WORD. But don't abuse it. This is a fine line here.

Example: I'm heat and noise sensitive. My HVAC unit started breaking down and rattling loudly. That would be an example of a health hazard. A broken light could be a health hazard to someone with vision issues. I can only speak for myself here. But y'all have the right to speak up and advocate to yourself.

Neurodivergent people, this applies to you too. You're one of us (one of us! one of us! one of us!). Don't let the exclusionists gatekeep this information from you.

@moonhund : Forgive Jono for giving into soft feelings long enough to take Dazai's hand in his, bowing over it to press a kiss to bandaged knuckles.

they are quite the pair; the untouchable and the one who must touch. the significance of jono's initiation is not lost on dazai as he finds soft smile spreading across his face. the kiss is what's unexpected and dazai catches his heartrate only after the first skip of the beat. lips are light, like the touch of a butterfly, and so he keeps his hand still as to not shatter such a fragile moment.

" how does it feel? " the detective asks in an equally fragile voice. " my hand, how does it feel? "

ADA Accessibility

Accessibility For All: How ADA Website Compliance Benefits Everyone

Website design ensures user accessibility, prompting businesses to prioritize ADA compliance. Enacted in 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) marked a significant milestone in fostering inclusivity by addressing disability discrimination across various domains, including digital platforms.

With an estimated 61 million disabled individuals in the United States, ADA compliance assumes paramount importance in the contemporary digital landscape. Failure to achieve ADA accessibility translates to the denial of equal online content access for people with disabilities.

Consequently, businesses must ensure their websites cater to all users, irrespective of disability. However, navigating the intricate web of evolving web accessibility laws poses challenges for companies and organizations.

ADA Site Compliance offers comprehensive solutions, facilitating regulatory compliance. Equipped with a team of adept compliance professionals who track regulatory trends, businesses can ensure their websites meet requisite standards.

What exactly is web accessibility?

Web accessibility encompasses the deliberate planning and development of websites to ensure equitable access and usability for individuals with and without disabilities. By adhering to web accessibility standards, websites enable all users, irrespective of their abilities, to utilize and derive value from web-based services, content, and digital products.

10 Must-Know ADA Accessible Website Benefits

If you are unsure about ADA compliance, take a look at this: Here is a list of ten ways an ADA website benefits everyone:

1. Enhanced Audience Engagement

The integration of WCAG and ADA standards makes websites accessible for individuals with disabilities. By prioritizing adherence to these regulations, businesses engage with an estimated 61 million disabled Americans, thus extending their audience reach significantly.

This proactive initiative provides for broader audience reach, digital marketing, and wider audience engagement for enterprises while underscoring their dedication to fostering diversity and equal access to online resources.

2. Enhanced Search Engine Visibility

While the connection between ADA compliance and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) may not be immediately apparent, it is significant. ADA compliance, such as using alt text, aligns with SEO best practices.

Alt text enhances accessibility and helps search engines effectively understand and index page content. It thus improves the website’s visibility on search engine results pages (SERPs).

3. Optimized User Experience for Users with Screen Readers

An accessible design enhances the user journey, especially those using screen readers, to increase customer satisfaction, thus increasing conversion rates. Effective compliance strategies include:

Clear Information Architecture: Organize content logically to help users of assistive technologies navigate the site effectively.

Navigational Clues: Use breadcrumbs and other navigational aids to guide visitors seamlessly through the website.

Simplified Forms: Use descriptive labels and plain language to simplify form completion and increase conversion rates.

Streamlined Checkout Process: Minimizing the steps required for checkout facilitates faster transactions.

Clear Instructions and Links: Provide concise instructions and descriptive link text at each stage to enhance user understanding and engagement.

Extended Session Timeouts: Ensure that users with assistive technologies have sufficient time to complete tasks without interruptions. These strategies prioritize user satisfaction, engagement, conversion rates, and website performance.

4. Legal Protection

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) mandates online accessibility, emphasizing its significance in ensuring equitable access. With a surge in lawsuits targeting non-compliant websites, adherence to ADA and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) standards offers legal protection, less legal risk, prevents expensive lawsuits, and guarantees user accessibility.

5. Enhanced Brand Image

In today’s socially conscious landscape, diversity and accessibility are not mere buzzwords but integral brand values. ADA-compliant websites signify a brand’s commitment to inclusivity and equal access. This proactive stance enhances brand reputation, fosters consumer goodwill and customer loyalty, and strengthens audience relations.

6. Fosters Creative Exploration

Incorporating more accessible web experiences and design principles demands a commitment to creativity and flexibility in response to evolving trends. Business leaders thus explore innovative solutions and continuously refine website designs to align with accessibility standards.

7. Enhanced Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

Accessible web design plays a vital role in improving SEO and fostering inclusivity. Adhering to WCAG standards by implementing alt-text for images, ensuring straightforward content, and adopting simplified page layouts significantly enhances website SEO.

Furthermore, accessible websites facilitate higher user engagement, reduce bounce rates, and elevate search engine rankings with search engine web crawlers. The website’s online presence and accessibility is further strengthened through additional SEO tactics such as:

Abstaining from using images for textual content

Providing video transcripts

Incorporating descriptive text alternatives for images, links, and buttons

8. Ethical Responsibility

Ensuring web accessibility is both a fundamental human right and an ethical duty. By prioritizing accessibility, you uphold principles of dignity, equality, and inclusivity for elderly individuals and those with disabilities.

9. Employee Retention

Accessible digital platforms empower disabled employees to access essential information, such as important resources like benefits and work schedules, fostering a supportive and inclusive work environment. This increases employee satisfaction and retention as individuals feel valued and accommodated within the organization.

10. Gives a Competitive Advantage

Embracing accessibility not only ensures compliance with regulatory mandates but also drives innovation. By addressing the unique needs of individuals with disabilities, organizations can develop innovative solutions that enhance the overall user experience.

This proactive stance distinguishes them as leaders in promoting inclusion while positioning them ahead of competitors in adopting user-centric design principles.

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Determine Compliance

Developing an ADA-compliant website necessitates an ongoing process of thoroughly examining elements by web designers. Key considerations to enhance your website traffic usability and accessibility include:

Alternative text for images

Captions for videos

Transcripts for audio content, facilitating accessibility

Optimal color contrast, text size, and keyboard navigation

Assessing Website Accessibility

During the development or reconstruction of a website, it is essential to check accessibility from the outset and continuously throughout the process. Identifying accessibility issues early enables prompt rectification, simplifying the overall correction process.

While adjusting browser settings can reveal basic accessibility aspects, a comprehensive review to ensure compliance with all accessibility standards necessitates a more extensive examination.

While evaluation tools can aid the assessment process, they are not the sole determinant of a website’s accessibility status. Expert evaluation by knowledgeable individuals is indispensable for accurately gauging the accessibility of a website.

Conclusion

The prioritization of digital accessibility underscores proactive engagement with potential customers in the dynamic digital landscape, strategically positioning organizations for prosperity. This concerted effort ensures that all individuals can seamlessly engage with online platforms. Such commitment to accessibility fosters societal benefits by promoting digital equity.

Accessible websites transcend regulatory mandates, embodying the ethos of digital inclusivity. By rendering content, products, and services accessible to the diverse online community, businesses expand their customer base and outreach significantly.

Navigating the intricate web of web accessibility legislation can be challenging for businesses and organizations. ADA Site Compliance offers holistic solutions to ensure alignment with compliance regulations. Get your FREE WEBSITE SCAN today!

The equality act cannot coexist with something like affirmative action. The two legal standards are contradictory. Either you have racial equality before the law, or you do not. You cannot justify treating people unequally because of historical oppression.

Affirmative action is completely different from the ADA. A disability is literally a lack of ability, where one person cannot accomplish the same things another person can without help. In order to compare the two, you would have to assert that white people are in fact superior, and everyone else is literally inferior and needs handicap aids to have a hope of catching up. Are you in fact asserting that white people are superior and white supremacists are correct in their beliefs? That's what you're doing by the logic of your comparison here. You're saying they're right, when you say that AA and the ADA are no different.

The fact you make that comparison is exactly my argument: you fully understand that AA isn't about a disability, but about falsely advancing one person over another, solely due to race. Traditionally that is called racial superiority, when one race is privileged over another. That is literally the legal definition: treating one differently than another, such that one gets treated better than another. That's AA. And that was Jim Crow, and that was slavery: all are boiled down to people being treated differently because of their race. That is the simplest definition of inequality: treating people better or worse based on some given factor.

That is literally the law: do not treat people differently based on race. Or based on religion, or based on sex, or disability, etc. Do you not like that law? That's what you have to give up if you want stuff like AA. The very thing that's keeping all these conservatives you're so afraid of in check. Imagine if they could just, be blatantly white supremacist as you say they are, instead of having to act like they're not. You know, like it was during Jim Crow. Imagine. You want that? Or you want AA more? You really think AA would be on the table if the equality act didn't exist? If civil rights didn't exist? You don't get to have both. Equal treatment for everyone. You're arguing that some people should get to be more equal than others because things sucked historically. You don't get to burn down someone else's house because they killed your wife. Illegal shit is illegal, and it's better that way. This should be obvious. Apparently it is not, because lots of people seem to think there's nothing wrong with AA.

Just because it helps people you like, people who are worse off, doesn't make it a good thing. Intent is not magical or exculpatory, it does not excuse anything you do in the name of "But the ~~Minorities". Not even God himself gets to hide behind that excuse. Apply it to something else and it's easy to see how horrible it is. Imagine if we "solved" the problem of sexism by doing what AA does. AA convicts everyone of bigotry and forces us to put one person above another; so then it follows that women should be privileged over men in everything. Do the same for disabled people--anyone with a disability now gets placed over ableds--you see the difference between this and the ADA yet?

But oh no, some people are both men and disabled! Some people are black and abled! How do we rank people? How do we---

What I'm describing is castes. Ranks. Where the higher your rank, the morally better you are, the more rights you have; the lower your rank, the more people get to spit on you. Like India. Like white supremacy. Like oppression.

Does that sound great or what???

Bullshit. Doesn't matter who gets to be dictator, any dictator is still a dictator, it's still living in a dictatorship, even if now you like the guy in charge and think he's great. All that changes when you like the dictator is that you like the nepotism and call it a meritocracy instead of crying oppression and inequality. You call it right instead of corrupt. Russia's inner circle vs Russia's common citizen.

And people want to call that "good" because it makes them feel fuzzy inside because it "helps minorities". Laughable that this is called "ethics" and defended as equality.

What you want is reparations, that's what the reasoning of "but history sucked" is. Make an argument for that. You don't get to be legally privileged over others while arguing that inequality is bad, that is nonsensical. That's Putin claiming he won a free and fair election and Russia is the most free and equal state to ever exist.

Either you want equality or you don't. Maybe you want some people to be more equal than everyone else, because they "deserve it", and you think that's fair. White supremacists think that's fair too, but you don't like that because that's the "wrong" people benefiting, isn't it, while AA gives the "right" people the benefit? People who've suffered crimes think they should be able to go enact mob violence and whatever they want on they people they think did them wrong. That's essentially your argument. We don't allow that, crime is crime. Two wrongs don't make a right. Inequality is inequality, regardless of whether we like the current king. We don't make exceptions to the law for people who "deserve" to be more equal, that's called corruption, that's not equality.

Why did the judges vote differently on other stuff? Because using racial data means you're making decisions based on race....which is not legal. But political data is fine, because that's not a protected class. Neither is income. Go wild on those things, the law doesn't care, and the law is what the court makes decisions with. It's not right, but the law allows it, and there's thus no basis to stop it until the law changes. Do they have nasty motivations for those things too? Sure. Doesn't change what the law is, and what's right, and what's correct. Nasty people can do things that are correct, even if they do it for ulterior and unstated bad reasons. Did you know that the only reason women got civil rights protection was because some jackass congresscritter actually said "well why don't you include women in this horrendous bill" when they were voting on the civil rights act, as a way to try to torpedo support for it, because clearly nobody in their right mind would want to give women rights? He got women rights for a shitty reason, based on shitty beliefs, but he was right that they were all the same thing. Worst person alive can be correct, being terrible doesn't mean everything they do is automatically turbowrong.

It is possible to change things so that people are not treated differently based on their zip code, their income, other things. It is possible to fix things without being ugly to other people, without making things worse, without pushing one person's suffering onto someone else and calling that justice. As I said multiple times already, equally funding schools and children's (universal) healthcare should be the goal here. That's actual equality, and that's the root of the problem. We do not treat people equally, and we should. Making it law that people must or deserve to be treated differently is a step backwards in pursuit of that goal. Can't have both. You can't say you're for equality if you're for treating people differently.

Storytime...

A long time ago there was this thing called redlining. White people didn't want Black people living in their neighborhood. So Black people were forced to live in the poorest areas with the lowest wages.

Yes, they banned redlining. But stopping something does not necessarily fix the damage that was done. It did not magically give Black folks higher wages so they could move into better areas. They were basically stuck. They were unable to build up generational wealth. So their children were also stuck in those poor areas with low wages.

Redlining created a cycle of poverty that still exists to this day.

Public schools are funded mostly by property taxes. If you live in an area with expensive property, there will be more money to fund local schools. If you live in an area with less expensive property, your local schools will not have the ability to properly fund themselves.

Poorer areas have more crime. They pay their teachers less. So they have a huge issue recruiting qualified teachers. They cannot provide students with all of the tools they need to succeed. No computers or current textbooks. Schools in warm areas will not have air conditioning. Some in cold areas will have inadequate or broken heating. The building infrastructure may be falling apart with leaky pipes and dysfunctional bathrooms.

Distraction after distraction makes it a difficult environment to learn.

Kids in poor areas are also more likely to be food insecure due to food deserts and sometimes they lack free school lunch programs. Hungry kids do much worse in school. It is hard to concentrate when you are hungry.

So in order for a Black student to succeed in an underfunded school they have to overcome the following variables... hunger, less qualified teachers, lack of school supplies, deteriorating facilities, outdated textbooks, lack of educational technologies, and they are poorly educated about sex and drugs. Many can easily fall victim to addiction and the consequences of sexual activity. They are also overpoliced and overdisciplined. Often getting suspensions and expulsions for the same behaviors as white students who only get warnings or detention. They get suspended 4 times as much.

Under those circumstances, even the brightest and most hardworking kids might struggle to reach their potential. Their grades will suffer. Their test scores will be lower.

On paper, they don't look like a good candidate for admission.

Affirmative action was a way to give those kids with potential a second chance at a good school. Recruiters could judge the students on other variables. They could take into account all of the educational obstacles. And they could admit people who probably would have thrived if they were born in a different zip code.

If someone goes to a good school and has good grades and test scores, they will find a place to get a higher education. Maybe not their first choice. Maybe not a fancy Ivy League school. But they will get a good college education *somewhere*.

If someone went to a bad school and had no chance at achievement... without affirmative action they might not get into any college at all.

If Republicans want to level the playing field, perhaps start with public school funding. (And stop voting against lunch programs for chrissake.)

Until that happens, ending affirmative action will make the cycle of poverty that much harder to break.

Requiem-Rafael Barba x reader

Summary- ADA Barba has one thing he can’t live without, fear of losing it consumes his dreams.

Warnings- smut smut smutty smut, dirty talk, language, bit of a daddy kink, just me being self indulgent and salivating over Barba.

———————————————————————————

He should’ve known it would never be easy.

Get the girl, fall in love, live happily ever after…those were not things he’d ever expected to happen in his life. His job was grueling, the hours chaotic; how could someone be expected to sign up for that? The media scrutiny that came with his high profile career alone should have sent you running for the hills. But none of it deterred you, you kept him grounded when things got too dark, you soothed his troubled mind in a way he could have only dreamed of, and now the one thing he’d wanted more than anything was most likely being ripped from him.

It was supposed to be a simple night out, it had been a migraine inducing week and all Raphael wanted was a nice dinner and to spend the weekend buried in you. He’d texted that he was on his way to the restaurant, but no reply came from his girl. That should’ve been the first red flag. You were chronically on your phone during the work week, he had to pry it from your hands most nights to get you to rest, sometimes he even hid it on the weekends just so you would pull yourself away from your cases and take a minute to breathe. You made his level of professionalism look meager sometimes, and that was truly saying something.

On the third round of calls it picked up and he felt relief flood his system. “Amore, you had me worried! I-“

“Barba? Is that you?” His blood runs cold at the voice on the other side; Olivia Benson had your phone. “Liv- please don’t say it.” “We got a call to this location, a town car with the driver shot, signs of a struggle in the backseat.” “Text me the address.” He was already running, two blocks was nothing over something like this, his worst fear playing out before his eyes.

-

Waking with a shout, Raphael nearly falls from his bed in his Upper East Side penthouse, drenched in sweat and tangled in his fancy Egyptian cotton bedsheets. The alarm clock by his bed read 2 am, and despite his outburst you slept soundly beside him, blissfully unaware that he’d just had a nightmare that rocked him to his core. It was his worst fear, going public with your relationship meant putting you directly in the public eye; opening you up to media scrutiny and allowing anyone with a grudge against him the perfect target to send him to his knees.

He swiped the stray tears that had formed and tried to regulate his breathing, he couldn’t get his heart rate down and it felt like he was choking on the air he tried desperately to take in. You were fine, peaceful even, a serene look on your face as the lights from the New York skyline glowed across the exposed skin of your body. Gorgeous, and totally unaware of how terrified he was to lose you.

He padded down the hall to the bathroom, splashing cold water across his face, still in a daze. Hearing the door crack open, he glanced behind him in the mirror reflection. Of course you’d come to find him. He must look a mess, wild green eyes trained on you as you crossed the threshold to wind your arms around his waist, body pressed against him tightly and he finally felt himself relax.

“What’s wrong Raf? You getting sick baby?” You turned him in your arms to press a hand to his forehead and he melted into your touch, curling himself around you and nuzzling his scruff against your neck.

“Bad dream Amore, I’ll be ok.” You quirked a brow at him, you didn’t believe him a bit, he looked unmoored; his cool exterior rattled in a way you’d never seen before.

“I don't know that I believe you darling, but I’m patient. I’ll wait until you’re ready to tell me. For now, what do you need?” He stroked your cheek and his eyes softened as he took you in. “You, just you.”

-

He had you in his arms and was carrying you back towards the bed immediately, soft kisses pressed to his hair as you let your hands slide around his neck. He needed this, just the closeness and love only you could provide would be enough to bring him the peace he needed. Spread out on his mattress you looked like an angel, the glow of the city illuminating your body as he undressed you in the moonlight. “Love me Rafi, let me make it better baby.” He felt a shiver roll down his spine as he sprawls across your body, chests pressed together as he takes your face in his hands and kisses you softly. You sigh as he becomes more urgent, tongue mingling with yours as his palms slide down your sides to grip your hips, pressing his hard length against you and groaning low in his throat.

You whine at the feeling, grinding your hips down into his to get more, it will never be enough until he’s filled you, but ever the tease he plays your body like a well loved instrument until he has you panting and writhing into the mattress. His cologne, the heat from his skin, the filthy words he whispers as he brings you to the edge with his hands and mouth become almost too much to bear, it has you begging him to fuck you and he can’t help the chuckle that bubbles up, his sweet girl reduced to tears over the pleasure he gives. It’s euphoric, knowing he can get you like this. No one else gets to have you this way, only him.

“You want my cock, cariño? Look at you, so good for me. Mi hermoso, mi corazón, I love you. You’re everything to me. Tell me you want it sweet angel, I’ll give you what you need.” His words felt like a brand on your skin, your heart so full for this man, he was otherworldly, truly a gift. He brought his mouth back to yours, nipping at your bottom lip as you bucked up into his hand, you couldn’t form the words it was all too much and yet you needed so much more. “Daddy please, please fuck me- need you close” you stuttered out and he freed himself from his briefs. oh he was mouth watering, toned chest slick from sweat, your eyes followed the trail of chest hair down his happy trail, whimper escaping you as you took in his thick cock in his hand, pumping slowly with mirth in his gaze as he watched you squirm. He would never admit it to anyone, but he really did love it when you called him daddy, the age gap wasn’t even that large honestly, but something about it made him impossibly harder for you, and he couldn’t be bothered to hold himself back anymore.

“Beautiful girl, you make me crazy you know that?” He said as he ran himself through your folds slowly, deliberately, before sinking himself into you and watching as your back arched off the mattress. Sliding his arms under your back he slams himself into you, setting a brutal pace that has you crying and shaking in his hold. So good, it feels so good, and he knows neither of you are going to last long at all. Pressing his thumb to your clit he watches as your release shudders through you, your pussy pulling him in like a vice and he comes deep, moaning your name against your mouth like a prayer.

You both fall asleep like that, connected as intimately as possible, and the nightmares stay away for another night. When morning comes he’ll shrug it off as if it was nothing; but in the back of his mind he’ll be making a list to update his and your security at work, and holding you a little closer than usual before he leaves for the office. It won’t ever fully leave his mind, but little moments of peace with you will make it worthwhile.

Guarded Desires: Part 4

Fandom: Star Wars - The Acolyte

Pairing: Padawan!Qimir x Princess!Reader

Summary: After an assassination attempt on your mother, she’s asked a favor from the Jedi Council to watch over you and your family until the assailant has been caught. As a result, your mother’s old friend, Master Vernestra, has her padawan, Qimir, be your bodyguard. Based off my imagine here.

Series Masterlist

After your day at the shore, you didn't feel any lighter. Knowing that your father was getting ready to set you up with suitors brought on a lot of anxiety within you.

Qimir could see and feel that anxiety consuming you. When he watched you train, you became sloppy. You were getting snappy with the servants. You've even snapped at him a few times, but proceeded to apologize right after.

In moments alone, you two would talk. You more than him. He'd listen as you shared for your dreams, your goals, how you'd change certain rules and regulations in your kingdom. But then you'd also share your pains, your anxieties, your insecurities. Qimir can't help but feel the pain you feel. Your hurt is hurt because even if he's known you for two weeks, he knows you deserve better treatment than what your father is giving you.

He was becoming more and more concerned for you as your anxieties grew.

This concern can be seen from his Master.

After another day, he went to his Master to report back to her. As they stared out to the mountains surrounding the palace, Master Vernestra states, "You're starting to care for the princess."

Qimir gulps, avoiding his Master's gaze, "I've just been there to provide advice and comfort. The King-"

"You know these kind of attachments are forbidden, my padawan."

"I know-"

"Need I remind you that if you cannot keep these emotions at bay, you won't be able to become a Jedi Knight?" Vernestra gives him a warning look.

Qimir sighs, running his hand through his cropped black hair, "I know, Master. I will be more mindful of my interactions with the princess."

Vernestra nods, "Good. I'd hate to see all of your efforts be lost." She then excuses him and he goes to his rooms.

There's a deep pit in his chest, when he gets into bed. Growing up, being taught the ways of the Jedi, he always had an issue with their views on emotions and attachments. He struggled with them when he was a youngling, but as he grew, he became accustomed to not getting close to anyone. Then he met you and it's becoming increasingly difficult to separate his duty as a Jedi and his growing affections for you.

How are these feelings so wrong when it makes him feel so...at ease?

_____________________

You sit back as Qimir makes various toys float around the room. Ada and Aspen are so amused as they try to reach for their toys that hover in mid-air. You watch as Qimir's eyes crinkle in amusement. His low chuckle brings warmth into your chest.

He looks up at you and he smiles. You feel that all too familiar fluttering again.

You scold yourself for growing attached to him. You know the Jedi can't form emotional attachments to people. It creates an in-balance in them. However, you still can't help but hope that a tiny part of him likes you. It's the way he looks at you, the way he talks to you, the way he just knows what you need when you're having a bad day. You hope that you're not reading into things wrong, but you also shouldn't be reading to anything when it comes to Qimir.

You cannot be with each other, no matter how much your heart yearns for him.

The investigation has picked up now. There have been whispers about who the attempted assassin might be. Vernestra and other Jedi have been gone for the past few days looking into these rumors. A part of you hopes the person is found, so they may face their fate for attempting to hurt your mother. The other part of you hopes they stay hidden for a while, so that Qimir can stay with you longer.

The thought of him leaving you suddenly dampens your mood. Sensing the shift, Qimir excuses himself from the twins and immediately goes to your side.

"Everything okay?" he reaches out to touch you, but then remembers what his Master said. He immediately pulls back and he sees your shoulder sag further.

"Just...thinking."

"About?"

You shrug. You're pulling away from him. He can feel it.

There's clearly something on your mind, but you hold back. Even though this is what he needed, it feels terrible. He doesn't like it one bit.

"I just hope the person who tried to hurt my mother will be found soon. So my family and I can stop living in fear and you can go back to your training. I'm sure it would be a lot more fulfilling than being stuck with me all hours of the day." You walk past him and join your sisters at their small round table where they're now setting up for a tea party.

Qimir looks at you with a frown. Did you want him to leave? How could you think that he'd want to be anywhere but here? With you? How does he tell you that he's felt more alive in your presence than he has in all of his years at the Jedi academy? How-

There's a loud BANG in the distance that rattles the walls of the palace. You immediately look to Qimir, eyes wide and full of fear.

He quickly goes to you and your sisters, "The hideout. Hurry!" He grabs Ada and you grab Aspen. You rush to the other side of the room where there's a portrait. Behind it is the entrance to a hidden room made for safety. The rooms have been there for eons, in case of emergencies. This was definitely an emergency.

The twins' protector, Ryker, comes bursting into the room, "There's an attack! Qimir, you're with me!"

Qimir nods and looks back at you, "I'll come back when it's safe. Only open this door when I give the signal. Three knocks, two, then three again. Got it?" He helps Ada inside, "Stay quiet."

"Please be safe." You say with pleading eyes.

"I will. I'll come back to you. I promise," he leans in, kisses your cheek and hurries after Ryker. You quickly pull the portrait towards you and slam the button to lock it.

Your sisters curl into you, both whimpering in fear. You wrap your arms around them, trying your best to comfort them.

Your mind is racing. You worry about your parents. You hope they're safe. You worry about the servants and hope no one is hurt. You think about Qimir, his promise and the kiss he left on your cheek. You want to be elated by the gesture, but you can't help but be filled with worry, fear, and sadness.

I am a firm believer that Leon is an honest and very respectful man and would never do anything to hurt another person to the best of his ability. leon x model!fem! reader, series, SMUT!! SMUT!! SMUT!! they will fuck and that is a promise! infidelity (obvs, babes, look at the title), fem! reader, reader has a vagina, descriptions of masturbation, brief mention of a fleshlight, lube, tissues. leon's kind of a perv if you squint, vaginal sex, anal sex, smoking, language, drinking, weed smoking (mention and act), some texts, lingerie mention, photoshoots, jealousy and possessiveness (the hot kind), ada slander at times, leon is married to ada, no use of y/n or (name) because it gives me the ickity ick, angst at times becos i'm a sad gorl, sorry if grammar sucks but im a slut, also i promise there's dialogue i just ❤️ context and description, slowburn, mutual pining, eventual smut, pov switching from time to time (but not like you pronouns changing to she/her, just like the majority of a chapter would be told in Leon or your point of view,)

For months, Leon had been writhing in his silk sheets at night. He was no stranger to these encounters, considering his career as an agent. Nightmares were a usual guest in his home of dreams, but this time was different. They weren't the usual nightmares of losing his team, no. They were...wet dreams. About you.

Dreams of fucking you so hard he'd break the bed. Dreams of your goddamn perfect tits bouncing in unison with his violent thrusts. Dreams of your whines, constantly praising him on how good he fucked you, how good he felt with the tip of his cock kissing your cervix like they had just had their first kiss on their front porch after a first date. He was fiendish in those fantasies. He'd gotten desperate to the point of going online and buying a fleshlight with his own adult money. He had felt so shameful. Leon went out and fought a bioweapon (saving the world) with a fat paycheck handed to him. A paycheck he would spend on a sex toy because he couldn't stop dreaming of fucking you.

But that's all they were to him. Dreams. Wet dreams, at that, but just dreams. He did feel guilty, there was no denying that: he felt like a teenager going through puberty all over again, having to jerk his cock multiple times past the point of overstimulation to have the fleeting moment of you pass his mind and regulate back onto the normal, time-to-time sexual thoughts of his wife. He knew he probably wasn't alone in this. Besides, he wouldn't ever act on it. True, Leon was in an unstable and semi-toxic relationship with his wife, Ada, but the mere thought of cheating on her made him feel violently ill. He was loyal. He was kind. He was honest. He was the type of man you brought home to your parents and they'd clamor over him like a newborn baby Jesus. At least that's what he'd try to convince himself of. But tonight, Leon Kennedy would be a different man. He'd diligently play the part of a loving and caring husband, one who could never dream of cheating on his wife with another woman. Tonight would be the night that he would have dinner with his friends he hadn't seen in a while, chat, have a good laugh and a good meal until he eventually went home and spent the rest of the night with Ada. Leon knew this wouldn't be the most perfect night ever, of course not: he's never been a lucky man in his life, and that certainly won't be changing tonight. Why? Because you're there. You're there to haunt him like some horny odd ghost: almost as if you're taunting and teasing him with your mere presence. Like you're telling him: "I know you want to fuck me."

He's torn from his thoughts with the sultry palm of Ada's hand surfacing upon his shoulder. Yet, her hand feels cold. He remembers the warmth he felt at the beginning of their marriage, she felt sweaty at some points, but she felt as cold as freezing air in a Colorado Winter. He realized he had been standing in front of their bathroom mirror for ten minutes, doing the same motion of moving his tie back and forth like he was masking the way he thought about changing it.

"Ready?" Leon nodded in response, finally stopping the long game of toying with the elongated piece of fabric. He pats his wife's hip, to which he's met with a curt smile, concealing a plethora of disgust. He wants to be sad. Say something snarky. Be angry even. But all he feels is disappointed in himself. Leon knew that Ada had betrayed him ages ago during the Raccoon City incident but had put it upon himself to trust her again. That's what love is right? He would tell himself every time he felt a doubt begin to creep inside his hollow mind. Trusting someone even when they hurt you in the past.

Eventually they arrive at the dinner party, being greeted with hugs and the usual: "Leon, Ada, it's been so long. So nice to see you!"'s and so and so forth. On one hand, he's grateful. How lucky is he to have the opportunity to come together with his friends and have a nice evening that quells the dark thoughts of breaking his wife's trust or the fact their marriage was breaking at the seams and there was nothing he could do to fix it anymore. Then there's his other hand. The hand that's caked in filth and gut-wrenching horniness that tells him to cheat on his wife with you. The devil on his shoulder, if you will. The small malevolent voice was awoken as soon as his eyes settle upon your body. The one he dreamt about for the past few months.

You're wearing cute little pearlescent earrings upon your lobes, a necklace to match and finished off with a very lovely black slip dress that hugs your body just right. The fabric lovingly stretches across your tits like the dress was ripped straight from every man's dream. There was a slit upon the side: revealing enough until... There was a stirring in his jeans. His cock suddenly leaps to life as if it were unconscious and been resuscitated back to life via CPR. The phallic shaft ached against the gusset and fly of his cotton Calvin Klein brand boxers: tip sweeping against his waistband in a way that felt so familiar now, so normal. And for one of the first times in Leon Scott Kennedy's life, he truly realizes how fucked he is.

Jill with a virgin reader is making me salivate, honestly ANY Of them w a virgin reader. Ada literally can’t stop cooing and awwing at reader long enough to acc fuck them, Leons savour complex is going OFF. Carlos is crying, bcs he? Gets to be the first? And Jill asks if anyone is going to fix that, and doesn’t wait far an answer

omgggggg don't even get me started. i actually imagined y/n in unchained melody to be a virgin, since most of their adult life has been spent in umbrella's captivity. but, with most of my stories, i try to keep y/n's character as vague as i can without making them bland. so, ultimately, you all get to decide whether your reader insert is a virgin or not.

tell any of the four you are a virgin, however, and they will surely lose their minds. all in their own unique, intricate ways.

yes, leon's savior complex goes haywire, but full honesty.... he feels really guilty. of course, his delusional mind does its usual mental gymnastics. he reaches the conclusion that your virginity is because you spent these past several years saving yourself for him. and he, to put it bluntly, is a slut. sure, none of the bodies he brought to bed meant anything to him, nor did they really bring him any pleasure. but his body count is sky high, while yours hasn't lifted an inch from the ground. nonetheless, he finds comfort knowing you are the one he will lay with for the rest of his life, and vice versa.

ada, on the other hand, thinks societal standards and regulations surrounding the concept of virginity are complete bullshit. your whole disposition changes just bc of one pencil dick? yeah right..... that being said, when it is you looking up at her, all doe-eyed and shy with your confession, she can't deny the possessive, animalistic nature it stirs inside her. having complete responsibility of your pleasure and experience has her itching to sink her claws into you. more than she is willing to admit.

carlos differs from all the four as he is not the most sexual person ever. however, he has had his fair share of one night stands in the past. all that locker room talk from other soldiers turned him into a playboy, of sorts. all the names on his body count were really only there to give him an ego boost. now, with you and all your heavenly glory in his life, carlos is a changed man. virgin or not, he always treats you like your skin is made of fine china. in this scenario, however, he is horrified at the prospect of even pressing too hard on a muscle. you can have carlos as your first, of course, but be prepared to constantly soothe and assure him of your safety.

and last, but certainly not least, we have jill. oh, boy...... the words "i'm a virgin" may as well be a lethal weapon, because not a picosecond is wasted before she is tearing into you like some crazed animal. she is not soft or soothing like the others, no, she is rough and aggressive, and most importantly, cocky. constantly boasting about how you needed a real woman to fuck you right, how nobody else could make you feel the way she does, and just how fucking soul-crushing you look with her hands all over you. in the end, your confession will inevitably lead to you beneath her. and you'll be lucky if you can stand on your feet for the next few days.

my best advice, keep your sexual history a secret. whether you've brought hundreds to bed or zero, simply alluding to sex will have them all sweating and squirming with need. if you do confess, however....... i'll keep you in my prayers.....................
