Quite A Handful Ch1 Aizetsu, Sekido, Urogi, Karaku, And Hantengu

Sometimes it was a handful to have so many husbands.

(This is inspired by @starrcityyy's Hantengu Wife Y/n art. (Warnings: Their blog does contain NSFW elements and themes that not everyone may like or be comfortable with. Just a heads up. But this WILL STAY Sfw.) I did ask if they were fine with someone writing drabbles inspired by their au before writing this, and they mentioned that they were fine. This is probably not gonna be very long and it's from the perspective of a female reader.

Wife Y/n Concept- @starrcityyy

Demon Slayer- Koyoharu Gotouge

Warning: Karaku IS his own warning. Possibly some innuendos. Mentioned killing.)

The thunderstorm I'm the distance between the roof and sky haunted the eardrums as the storm drew ever closer in the darkness.

There truly was nothing but the warmth of the small fireplace within the cozy small house in the middle of the woods. A cozy small hideaway nobody knew but you and a select few individuals. It would shield you well from the harsh elements and keep you safe and sound from the outside. It was your own little safe haven. Just yourself to worry about now. 

The bubbling pot of soup on the stove wafted in waves making even the most stuffed person desire to eat it as you smelt it. A hum of satisfaction left your throat as you nodded and took your hand off the soup ladder after stirring it a few times. This would surely last you a few days. Cooking enough food to last you a few days was always good. Having leftovers only meant you didn't have to cook over a hot stove for a good while. It left you time to focus on other things. Speaking of other things- F/c eyes turned to the door as thunder drew ever closer and closer judging by the sounds in the distance. Now where are they?

They usually weren't this late. 

It was sort of a pattern by now. Usually the first one to show up would be the most skittish one after he runs away from whatever danger scared him. Cowering by your legs and hugging you for comfort. Then depending on how hard the task was, the other four would follow right after either sooner or later. Like said it depended on how hard her husband's work was that day. You supposed tonight would be a hard working day. Until then you busied yourself by picking up a broom to start sweeping up the floor. The faint sounds of broom bristles scraping on the floor added to the crackling fire and the distant thunder. Perhaps that's why-

You didn't hear anything when the door opened.

You didn't see the demon crawling it's way inside scuttling like an insect.

Didn't sense the figure looking behind you until deadly claws wrapped around your form.

"Hi. You're home late," you casuay said not bothering to look up at the form trembling as it clutched onto your kimono. "What happened to you this time?"

"Not my fault! N-Not my fault! The hands that had killed them were not mine!", a voice sobbed and croaked out between cries. 

Yep. Seemed about right.

"Are you hungry? Or did you already eat out tonight?"

"*Hic* I didn't do iiiiiiitttt!!"

"You already ate then. Good to know." 

By now you could already interpret what he meant by his rambles. Wasn't always easy though especially when he had the tendency to go on for ages. An insistent series of weak shaking tugs told you all you needed to know about what he wanted. Without batting an eye, the broom was placed to the side and she assumed the position of turning around and doing the familiar process of hugging the sobbing demon closer to her while he sobbed into the folds of her dress. Make no mistakes. He had the outward visage of a weak old man but he was far from weakly.

"Shh. Shh. There, there now. You're ok. Nothing's going to hurt you. You're alright." Her hand soothingly patted over his back and head being mindful of his horns.

"Monsters. Monsters! All of them! Putting blame on me when it wasn't my.." his voice dissolved into muffled sobs and whimpering in the fabric of hee dress she could barely make out. 

It times like this it would be a while before he was able to pull himself together and this time would be no exception. You spent the better half of an hour just calming him. He had completely almost calmed down when again the door was opened but with much more force. The door frame rattled from the five of the door sliding open and the sound echoed throughout the room. The loud sound had him squealing in fright again and scrambling to hide behind her legs gripping onto the fabric of her dress.

"HONEY, I'M HOME!~"

"Shut UP, Karaku! My head is killing me!"

"It's not my fault you let yourself get hit by that boulder.~"

"YOU'RE THE ONE THAT BLEW IT TOWARDS ME YOU ABSOLUTE IMBECILE!!"

"Then next time  don't stand in my way ~"

"WHY YOU STUPID-!!"

"That's enough both of you. Your fighting is making me sad." 

Footsteps approached and by the screams she could already tell who else had shown up. One. Two. Three. AAAnd four more demons dangerous and strong. One holding his head annoyed and scowling. Two looking amused by his anger and smiling. And one last one looking a mixture of 'over this' and slightly worried. 

"Hi, honey." You smiled at them. "How was work?"

"Miserabl.     G."  Your husband rubbing his annoyed temples didn't even look up.

"AW. Sekido's just upset because he got a boo boo.~ Big deal.~" Said green eyed husband rolled his eyes when his angrier counterpart shot him a dirty look, but soon put all his focus into giving her a wolfish grin. "But enough about him.~ What's our cute little wifey been up to?~"

"Cleaning. Are you all hungry? I made dinner."

"Nah. We ate before we got here." Another arm wrapped around her and pulled her against a fluffier wing in contrast to his sharp claws that pulled her against him. "But it's so cute seeing you all domestic. Makes me just wanna gobble you up!"

"Let's not eat her. That'll just make all of us sad."

"Aizetsu. I-...I was just joking. Y'know?" Your blue eyes husband just stared. "You know. Like a joke I did just for fun. ...You did know that right?'

".... I'm going to be keeping a very close eye on you from now on."

"Aizetsu, Im serious! It was just a joke. I wouldn't really eat her!"

The veins on Sekido's forehead got bigger than before as Aizetsu stared down a now slightly intimidated harpy demon and Karaku laughed at all three of them. Meanwhile the trembling demon behind you finally let go of your dress in favor of hiding his face in them but still his behind you. Your head tilted in concern at Sekido. Out of all five of them, he seemed to be the only one in genuine pain.

"Well enough of pleasantries.~" Karaku smoothed his bangs to the side before pressing an arm on the wall above your head and giving a bigger smirk. "I've missed this pretty thing.~ How about you and me-"

He fell silent as you suddenly ducked under his arm and out of Urogi's grip. Hantengu squealed as his makeshift shield was removed and all watched as you ignored all of them in favor of grabbing Sekido's head and pulling the lightly surprised man towards you.

"You look worse for wear. Are you alright, Honey?"

Sekido blinked before scowling."Peachy. Karaku blew a dam boulder at me! My head is KILLING me."

You cooed before pulling his head lower to cradle it much to the disgruntled others' dismay. "There, there. Poor baby. Come on. I'll get you some pain medicine and have you lie down."

"I don't need to be coddled!.....But this is fine I guess."

"Do you want me to stay with you until you feel better?"

Sekido paused.. before looking at the others and giving a rare triumphant smirk that earnt him jealous frowns.

"Yes. I'm going to need a LOT of care."

Going trick-or-treating with chara

Halloween post #5

Pairing: female chara dreemurr x gn reader

Summary:Frisk managed to convince chara to celebrate Halloween and go trick-or-treating with her. She did it by promising her 2 things:free chocolate and getting to spend time with you

A/n:The headcanon that chara loves chocolate is one I've seen around a lot, and it's really adorable, so I'm keeping it for my version of her

"This is so dumb"

"Don't say that, chara, it's gonna be fun"

It was Halloween, and Frisk decided to celebrate the holiday by doing a classic:trick-or-treating. Even if the monsters probably didn't know about it, she still wanted the three humans in the underground to celebrate

While convincing you was pretty easy, because you wanted to have fun too, trying to get chara to participate was harder. She didn't really see the point and called the tradition stupid, but after telling her she could have a lot of free chocolate (and be with you), she agreed even if reluctantly

"What's with the costume anyway?"

"Hm? What do you mean? You told me to wear this"

"I told you to dress up as a devil. You put on some plastic horns and called it a day, that's barely a costume"

"I don't need a costume, I'm already a demon basically, and what about you, you just cut a hole into a sheet and used it as a shirt, put on fake wings and a halo......wait now that I'm thinking about it, why are we matching? Shouldn't I be matching with y/n? They're my partner"

"Ohhhh, you wanna see them that badly?"

Chara blushed and raised her voice at frisk

"S-shut up, I was just asking"

"Suuuuuure anyway they should be here any mome-"

"Hey babe, hi frisk"

Your arrival made both of the girls smile (even if chara's was a bit more subtle) and wave at you

"Hey y/n, chara couldn't wait to see you, she wanted to-"

"I already told you shut up.....hey y/n....n-nice costume by the way"

"Oh, thanks, yours is nice too"

The red eyed girl gave a smug look at her friend while smiling more at you

"Oooook, let's go now. Everyone has their basket, right?"

You two nodded as frisk grinned

"Wonderful, ok everyone, we're gonna have the best trick-or-treating the underground has ever seen"

"Probably the only one"

"A-anyway, we're gonna get so many candies! Let's start"

You three went to different houses to trick-or-treat and actually got quite a lot of sweets, mainly because of chara terrifying every monster into giving her chocolate despite frisk constantly telling her not to

"I gotta admit, that was pretty fun, I should have listened to you from the start frisk"

".....do you think it was fun just because you got to scare everyon with your face"

"What about it? Isn't the whole point of Halloween fear?"

"....I guess"

"And it was because of chara that we got so many candies, so I'd say it was worth it. Thanks, babe,"

"See y/n gets it"

"Whatever, let's just go back home"

You went there and sprinted past toriel to your bedroom where you sat on the bed and emptied your baskets on it

"OK, so should we trade?"

"GIVE ME ALL THE CHOCOLATE!!"

without warning, chara instantly grabbed every single chocolate bar and chocolate flavored sweet that was there before unwrapping one of them and starting to eat it

".......I should have expected that. Well, I guess we can trade the non chocolate stuff between ourselves y/n"

You did just that and ate the candies you got until chara approached you with a bar of chocolate in her hand

"H-hey, I'm full, and this was leftover so....... wanna share?

"Oh~ chara sharing chocolate, I didn't think that was possible, I guess that's what love does, though,"

Chara simply glared at frisk while you laughed and snapped the bar in half, giving yourself a piece

"Sure, I like chocolate almost as much as you, so thanks"

"Don't mention it"

You and chara ate the bar while smiling at each other. When you finished, you looked at her and kissed her cheek, which made her blush a lot and caused frisk to laugh again

"W-what was that for?"

"What? So I can't kiss my girlfriend now?"

"N-no, I'm not saying that just-"

She suddenly pulled you closer to her and kissed you passionately on the lips, making you melt into the moment

"If you want to kiss me, commit to it"

"Sure thing, sorry......you taste like chocolate"

"Is that a bad thing?"

"No it's still delicious, just like your regular kisses"

"Good"

She hugged you, pulling you closer to her once again

"Happy Halloween.......love"

"Happy Halloween to you too sweetie"

You're Perfect - Kylian Mbappe x Reader

Hi👋Can you please do one where kylian suggest to workout with his gf who is very out of shape and thank you😊

___________________ I was in the living room going through some papers for work. I woke up at 7am to start my shift, I work remotely. Kylian woke up two hours after me to go to the gym. I felt a soft kiss on my cheek and I looked at Kylian smiling.

"Good morning, sunshine. Did you sleep well? He sat next to me and took a look at the laptop. "Good morning, angel. Yes, you? You seem stressed." "There's a lot going on right now, I'm in a crisis. I need to get this done as soon as possible" "Why don't you take a break, you can't work like this. Come with me to the gym." I gave him a look, he never invites me to work out with him. I actually am not very active, I try to take walks everyday and watch my food intake, but that's pretty much it. I know Kylian didn't mean to offend me in any way, but I feel very self conscious about my body. I'm not in a very good shape, I consider myself to be a skinny-fat girl. "Hmm, okay. But, you'll have to give me a workout routine." "Sure, let's go get ready and leave." He gave me a quick kiss and stood up, I followed behind him. ___________ "You can go on the treadmill for twenty minutes and then continue with some light workouts since it's your first day" "Okay, Ky." I stationed myself to a treadmill facing the whole gym, I could feel eyes on me. This only managed to make me more uncomfortable. Kylian went along with his usual workout routine. Running gives you an opportunity to think about everything, especially what you're running for. I finished my running session and approached Kylian. "Hey, babe. I'm done with running." "Great, here's the yoga mat. Lay it next to mine and repeat my workouts. If you get tired stop and wait for me to finish my reps and do the next one." I nodded and did what he instructed. I began to get extremely tired after the second round, but I wanted to keep going. What if Kylian really meant to say that I need to lose some weight? I could feel him looking at me with a kind of concerned look. My face was really red and I was shaking lightly. "Babe? Don't push yourself too hard, okay?" "I'm okay, Ky. I want to do this. It's obviously going to hurt a little." "It's your first day, babe. If you burn out, you won't want to come back here tomorrow." he said and chuckled. Wow. It's clear to me now. We finished out workouts and got changed to leave for home. I waited by the car for him since I got ready before him. "Ready to go, honey?" "Yeah." "Do you want to stop somewhere to get food?" he said and we entered the car. I didn't feel like eating at all. "I'm not that hungry, Ky. But, you can get whatever you want for yourself?" he took his eyes off the road to take a look at me and went back to look at the road. He placed his hand on my thigh. "Babe? Is something wrong?" "No, why would you think that?' "I don't know, you just seem lost in your thoughts. Are you still thinking about work?" "Um, yeah, work. I'm thinking about work." he didn't seem convinced, but decided to let it go. We arrive at the house and I get back to my laptop. Kylian decided to hang out with his friends, he hasn't seen them in a while. I was glad he didn't insist on me joining him, I really didn't feel like going out. I was very confused about what I was feeling. Kylian was just being the sweetest person ever, he wanted to help me relieve some stress and here I am taking it the wrong way. After a couple of hours, I shut down my laptop and sighed. I was finally done with work and I was extremely tired and still sore from the workout this morning. I decided to wash my face and go to sleep. Suddenly, I heard my phone buzz, Kylian was calling me. "Hi, babe. I'm on my home. What do you want to eat? I still haven't eaten yet." "Hi, honey. Um, I ate an hour ago, I'm not hungry, babe. But you can get something for yourself since there isn't any leftovers." "Oh, okay, cool. I'll see you at home then." "See ya, Ky. Love you." "Love you too." _________ I heard the front door open and close, letting me know Kylian arrived. He made his way to the bedroom where I was laying on the bed with my back facing the door. I wanted to avoid the uncomfortable conversation so I pretended to be asleep. I felt the bed move next to me and I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"Y/N, I can tell you're awake honey. Can you talk to me?" I decided to drop the act and I turned around to face him. He caressed my cheek with his finger and looked me in the eyes, waiting for me to talk. "Ky, am I pretty?" "What do you mean, baby? Of course you are." "Do I need to lose weight?" he sighed and shut his eyes. He finally connected the dots. I couldn't tell what he was thinking. He open his eyes and sat up on the bed pulling me into his arms, my back resting on his chest. "Y/N, I don't know why you got the impression that I want you to lose weight, but I don't. I invited you today because I wanted you to take a break from work. I promise, I never even thought about changing anything about you." "I know, Ky. I just couldn't help this thought. Thank you for being so sweet to me." "Y/N, don't ever think this, please. I'm being serious. I love you so much just the way you are." "I love you too, Ky. Can I join you at the gym more often?" "Of course, baby. Only if you want to."

Antidote

Inspired by this post

Steve had some very troubled friends. That he knew. They said some weird stuff, some of it sounding like they didn't believe they were even human. He used to question it, now he doesn't.

He knew the routine. Sandy liked to invite him to barbeques on full moons with her huge family. They made the best ribs he'd ever tasted. He knew her family were hunters and he always got extra to take home with him. As a poor college student, these were a godsend and the family always fawned over his skinny frame like he was a neglected puppy that they'd taken in.

He also befriended a bunch of goths who just loved Italian food and would pay for his dinner just for him to go out with them. For being goths, they really were so excited for Italian food. He could see the drool off one for garlic bread.

"I loved this stuff when I was alive," Gregory muttered to himself, eyes half-lidded in ecstasy.

"I know what you mean," Sheila said, "my mother's favourite recipe is just not the same without garlic."

"Then why not include it?" Steve asked.

"Steve, I'm deathly allergic," Sheila grinned, showing off all her teeth, "well, only under certain circumstances."

"What does that mean?"

"Don't worry about it." She waved it off. Steve didn't care enough to argue. He got hot meals out of it and a support group that he wouldn't otherwise have.

One day, while heating up a plate of leftovers from Sheila's house, there was a frantic knock on the door. Steve sighed, putting down his plate and slowly heading to the door, dragging his feet. He just wanted to eat in peace.

"Ok, I'm coming," Steve said, making the frantic knocking pause. He opened the door and froze.

Sandy was standing there, tears in her eyes, giving him the biggest puppy dog eyes. Her brother, Brody, was beside her, helping another family member to stand. Steve inhaled as he saw blood dripping down their shoulder.

"Please," Sandy squeaked, "we didn't know where else to go."

"The hospital? The cops? Someone with medical training?!"

"We can't, they'll find us," she whispered, her breath hitching and dangerously close to turning into a sob.

Steve sighed and opened the door wider, letting them in. Brody rushed in, bringing the injured member into the bathroom, trailing blood on his floors.

Steve cringed at the roundabout way Brody got them there, trailing around the living room and into the kitchen before getting there like he was struggling to figure out where to put them. He then noticed that Brody had stuck to the hard floors and completely avoided the carpeted areas.

Steve closed the door and Sandy just grabbed Steve, pulling him after them and standing him close to the bathroom door. "Stay here," she said before heading to the nearest windows and looking out them, closing the blinds then grabbing cleaning supplies to start cleaning his front step.

Steve grew uncomfortable in all the silence around him. "Sandy," he said but she was too focused cleaning up their trail. "Sandy," he said louder, pulling her away from her task.

"Steve, stay here." She pulled him back to the bathroom.

"Why? What's going on? Why are you bringing your family here? Why not to the hospital? And why are you acting like you've been followed?" He continued asking questions.

"I- look, I don't know if- I don't know if it's because you don't believe us."

"What that you're wolves?" Steve rolled his eyes, "look, I get people are really into the whole spirit animal stuff, I just don't personally believe in that. That's fine, I don't judge that you do. But this is serious. Why are they not in the hospital?"

"B-because they'll find us easily if we take them there."

"Who will find you? Are you in danger?"

"Th-there's hunters." Sandy rubbed up her arms. "I know it sounds crazy to you but... there are people who hunt people like our family and try to kill us."

"Why don't you call the police?"

"The police won't help. These people make hunting us a profession. They go their whole lives heading from place to place, killing then moving on." Sandy ducked her head, "and now they're here."

"They just some nutcases? What? Do they use silver bullets and wolfsbane too? Or is wolfsbane good for you? I don't know the lore of you guys."

Sandy chuckled but it was choked with tears as they threatened to spill. "No, it's not. And yes, they try to poison us." She looked into the bathroom, "but... we think... does it work?" She called into the bathroom.

Brody popped his head out, holding a blob of blood with just a hint of shiny metal underneath, "got it. It's working. But they don't have their healing factor here."

Sandy pulled Steve away from the bathroom towards the opposite end of the apartment, "is this enough?"

"No. You need him out of the apartment."

"Can we step outside?" Sandy asked, "please? I'll try to explain everything."

Steve crossed his arms and gave her a disapproving look. Sandy just licked her lips nervously, eyes darting to the bathroom and she looked ready to cry.

"Please," she begged, "I promise, I'll try. It won't- it- I just-"

Steve grimaced, "ok, ok," he let up his stare, leading Sandy out of the apartment. "Just clean up after you," he called into the apartment before shutting the door.

Sandy led Steve away from the apartment, walking them down the street to the nearby park. As they did, Sandy pulled out a chocolate bar, ripping the wrapper open and chomping down with the fervour of an alcoholic sipping from a small flask.

"Is it safe to be out here if there's people after you?" Steve asked.

"They like to work in secret. They won't attack in broad daylight with people nearby. Plus," she held up her chocolate bar, swallowing her mouthful, "wolves aren't supposed to eat chocolate."

Steve smirked, "now now, you'll be sick with all that chocolate." He teased, the teasing feeling familiar enough that it let Sandy relax a little as they found a seat to sit in.

"Sandy!" A voice called out and it was one of the goths, Laurence, "are you guys alright? We heard the howls."

"Uh," Sandy looked down at her bar of chocolate. While a lot of her family liked chocolate, she only seemed to eat them when she was particularly stressed. "No. They- they're here."

"Well, yeah, we know that. Our elder issued a warning to the others and we're spreading the news but I'm talking about if any of you were got. You guys stopped howling suddenly."

"They came to me with Jack," Steve said, "they were shot."

Laurence froze then looked at Sandy, "are they...?"

"It worked, we were able to remove the bullet," she said, "but I had to take Steve away so they could use their healing factor." She looked down at her chocolate bar, "I want to tell him."

Laurence grimaced, "that's not a good idea. Especially right now. In fact, for you is a bad idea too." He gestured to the chocolate she was eating.

She froze and looked down at it. "Oh, yeah. I- I didn't think of that."

Steve sighed, looking around him as the conversation veered off into something he had no idea what to make of. He was used to it and he hated it. They were usually good at hiding a lot of those knowing looks.

"It's up to you." Laurence said, "the elders aren't gonna be happy, nor your pack if his magic stops working on us."

"Magic?" Steve chuckled mirthlessly.

Sandy pulled a thick book out of her bag, "I know you don't believe in this stuff but you're familiar with the whole vampires and werewolves and witches thing, right?"

"Yeah, are you going to tell me there's witches too?" Steve raised an eyebrow.

"And ghosts, and selkies and other creatures."

"Really," he scoffed, "how come I've never seen them?"

"We don't know why," Sandy opened up her book, scrolling the pages for something, "but whatever makes us like this just seems to neutralise when you're around. The vampire elders believe it's because you're a powerful witch with the ability to neutralise curses whenever you're around."

"Ah yes, the ol' magic answer," Steve rolled his eyes.

"We wolves have a different theory," Sandy said, stopping at one page and showing the picture to Steve.

It featured a tall shadow standing under a full moon. It was entirely featureless, not even a gender could be discerned thanks to the long robes it wore, hiding its proper shape. A glowing circlet on its head did not illuminate its face in the slightest. It looked kinda spooky.

"And that iiiis...?" Steve asked.

"W-well, a lot of our religions revolve around the moon. Witches do their rituals, animal transformation happens in the full moon, vampires seek asylum in the light of the moon, spirits can manifest at night. All that stuff." Sandy placed the book on her lap, "so naturally, we all have our deities revolving around the moon. It has many names but us wolves believe that it's all the same god."

"What do you call it?" Steve asked.

"Well, it's more of a title than a name. We call it the Guardian. It protects us from the horrors of our curses."

"And you believe... I'm related to this thing?"

"Well, our theory was that you were a creature with the ability to warp reality but you didn't know so you just warp reality to your belief of what the world is so, every time we're around you, we become 'normal humans' with no access to our usual curse. It's a personal theory of mine that you're a deity without memory."

"Your theory doesn't hold up, I have memory of my life and family right down to childhood."

"But you could have warped reality to make that family," Sandy said, "so it kinda does work."

"You're starting to sound crazy now, Sandy. Like, do you need help?"

Sandy sighed, "I guess I shouldn't be surprised you don't believe me. It is a crazy theory."

"Heh," Laurence picked the book out of Sandy's hands, "that's cute. The Guardian, makes it sound so cushy. Definitely no fearful god of the night like it's supposed to be."

"We don't typically need the fear of god to make sure we behave ourselves." Sandy muttered angrily.

"Of course not, you're known for your obedience now aren't you," Laurence smirked.

"Give me that," Sandy hissed, reaching for her book only for Laurence to hold it over his head where she couldn't reach it.

"Oh, what happened to that tall wolf height?" He jeered, "just shift and grab it."

Steve sighed, standing up and pulling the book out of Laurence's hand, the goth not even fighting him. "This isn't Twilight," Steve said, "you wolves and vampires can get along without all the name calling." He handed the book back to Sandy.

Laurence hissed, like a cat hiss. "Do not ever bring up that dreadful series to me or my clan ever."

"Or you'll what? Bite me?"

"I don't need fangs to draw blood," Laurence narrowed his eyes threateningly.

"You bite him and you'll have to answer to my pack."

"Ok, quit fighting, both of you. Look, as much as I don't believe in your religions and lifestyles, there's still a maniac coming after you and there's someone bleeding out on my bathroom floor right now."

"Brody will take care of them," Sandy said, "they'll need a lot of rest though and we might have to move a little closer to town."

"We're probably going to go underground until the coast is clear." Laurence said.

"Is that really safe?" Sandy asked, "I mean, if they find you, you'll be unprotected."

"We'll keep at least a couple of us up to guard but we have a good hiding spot. We can hide long enough to outlive them."

"Outlive?" Steve raised an eyebrow.

"You know what I mean," Laurence huffed.

"Ok, it's settled. I'll have a talk with the witch sisters to see what they'll be doing. They're going to be the most at risk." Sandy said.

Laurence nodded.

"So what do I do?" Steve asked.

"He shouldn't be after you," Sandy said, "but if you ever feel like you're being watched or someone's following you, call us."

"Just to clarify, we're not getting the cops involved?" Steve asked.

"As if they'd listen," Sandy rolled her eyes, "hell, it's a wonder you even take us seriously at all."

"It's hard not to when you show up at my front door bleeding!"

Sandy chuckled and hugged Steve.

"What's this for?" Steve asked.

"She's scent marking again, girl, you know you can't do that without your wolf musk." Laurence said, pulling the two apart.

"I'm not scent marking, I'm hugging," Sandy yelped in offence, "as a thank you for letting us in. And I know you don't believe you're doing anything but you're the reason we were able to stop the silver from hurting Jack and Brody while it was being removed so thank you." She hugged again.

Steve just chuckled and shook his head. "Whatever you say."

[watatsumiis]

Hey hey hey so I saw a roommate au and istg I have so many ideas flooding in now-

ok so every one agrees zhongli would be a great roommates and super organised helpful the whole package but let’s say someone like razor not so much

( wait now I want to make an offering / head canon thingy on a character now-Imma probably do it)

What’s your take on this?

Sips out

Ohh I love roommate AUs they're so silly (/pos) I'd absolutely love to see your takes on which characters would be good and bad roommates!! I'm gonna toss my rambling under a read more since it got. long. Sorry :3

I actually imagine Razor wouldn't be too bad of a roommate, once he's been taught the proper etiquette and how to clean up after himself. He'll build cosy little blanket nests around the house and bring home food to share. If asked, he'll do his best not to track mud in, and to manage some of the more tedious chores. it'd be like living with a younger sibling i think

I think some of the best roommates would definitely be as follows:

Zhongli - organised and responsible, the chore schedule is always consistent and fair. He may invite people over every now and then but usually gives prior warning, plus they're mostly quiet.

Al Haitham - as long as you don't bother him, he tends to mind his own business and quietly stay out of your way, which is all you can really ask for in a roommate.

Jean - though busy, she's quiet. Keeps to herself and cleans up after herself, but she will not clean up after you. She's got a knack for tracking what belongs to who and sticks with it.

Diluc is also fairly diligent in cleaning up after himself and running a household (when he's home, that is), so he makes for a fairly good roommate, unless you have a habit of leaving things laying around, in which case they'll probably accidentally get thrown out in his 3am cleaning fits

The very best roommate though, without a doubt, would be Thoma. It's like having a live-in housekeeper. Chores are unironically one of his favourite hobbies/calming things for him to do. He always cooks enough serves for both of you, with some leftovers for whoever might want it the next day. He's so kind and caring too, always checking in on you. It's like living with an older brother who is also your best friend. Though he simply cannot handle insects of any kind -- he calls you in if there's any kind of creepy crawly about.

The worst, however, would likely be...

Kaveh. If you've ever had experience living with someone who has ADHD, you might know what I'm talking about. He has a certain semblance of 'blindness' when it comes to messes on the ground or things left in places they shouldn't be, which can get pretty rough when he's always the one leaving them there. He leaves art supplies, diagrams, cutouts, leftovers and magazines wherever they may lay and just walks off, never to pick it up again. Things always end up in strange, unexpected places, especially when he's multitasking. He also eats all your food.

Bennett. Not for lack of trying, he works really hard to be a good roommate, but things always seem to go wrong when he's around. Broken amenities, taps left on, windows left open, the whole works. He'll offer to do your chores on occasion but they'll often need to be redone because he missed a spot, forgot to put washing powder in, or even shrunk your clothes by accident.

Ayato. He's a spoiled rich boy with no idea how to clean up after himself or do his own chores. He can't even cook for himself. He's competent in so many other things, but the basics of being a good roommate seem to elude him entirely and he'll often try to find ways to pawn his chores off on you, even stooping as low as to bribe you. He can be a bit messy, too, and tends to leave things just laying around. Sometimes he'll get mad if you try to clean things up that he's still 'using' (even if he hasn't sat at the dining table for three days, he's super insistent that those papers need to stay spread out all over it, exactly the way they are.)

Childe is a complete and utter slob. To the point where it feels like it's intentional. He eats your food and doesn't even try to hide it, leaving the rubbish out in the open (like he's bragging) or haphazardly tucked between the couch cushions. He'll take things from your room without asking and invite people over without any forewarning (or even inviting you to the big family dinner he seems to be throwing). He'll do his share of the chores if he's prodded into it, but he'll bitch and moan about it the whole time.

Hi I was wondering if you can please do one with Johanna having a crush on her neighbour who's a single mom, nurse, ones she asks Johanna to baby-sit her kid cuz she get en emergency shift Johanna say yes, and how they become friends and how Johanna get the corrige to tell reader her feelings, and then them just being lovey dovey

Reader's kid is a mischievous, witty kid and maybe around 4 yo

a/n: I always find it hilarious when people say modern au about the hunger games to mean the au is happening now, so I used present time instead because I feel that's more accurate. sorry if that's not what you meant, anon, if you wanted it set in the hunger games timeline I'll totally write something similar.

present time! au. johanna x female!reader

you sighed in relief as you heard the knock on the door. grabbing your keys and a water bottle, you flung the door open and wrapped your arms around johanna. "thank you, thank you, thank you so much. you're a lifesaver, honestly," you praised, squeezing her tightly.

"anytime," johanna promised, mourning when you finally pulled away from her. a small body made its way in between the two of you, clinging to your leg desperately.

your toddler pouted up at you, causing your heart to melt. you crouched to their level, tucking a strand of hair behind their ear and kissing their cheek. "I know, I'm so sorry, bubba. but mummy's gotta work," you coo. "johanna's here though. she'll have so much fun with you, I promise."

the little girl shook her head, not letting go until johanna teasingly sighed. "well, if you don't let your mum go, I guess I have to take my barbie's home," johanna held the desired toys up on display for the four year old.

"ok, bye mummy," she said quickly, almost pushing you out the door. you laughed, shaking you heard in amusement as you heard the door slam shut.

johanna found herself exhausted by the end of the night. she'd played barbie dolls with the toddler for a good twenty minutes, before your kid decided she was bored and wanted to do something else. they'd raided your closet for something to dress up in, then tried to bake a cake (which turned into a disaster once they realised neither of them could cook). finally they'd watched frozen together, as your daughter sang along to all the songs—johanna couldn't imagine how the young girl wasn't sick of this movie yet, considering this was her third watch and she already wanted to bash the tv against the wall. she'd didn't know how you were so patient.

it wasn't until late at night when your kid finally fell asleep. she snuggled into johanna's side, watching as bluey got up to some wacky adventure. johanna couldn't be more delighted to turn the tv off, finding her head leaning against the little one's, and her eyes fluttering shut.

the sound of keys in the door and you dragging yourself through the house woke johanna up. she groaned, checking her phone to see the time was five in the morning. she got up, replacing her body with a pillow for the kid to sleep on, and walked to the kitchen.

you were scourging the fridge for something to eat, before sighing and pulling out last night's leftovers. you put it in the microwave, watching in a trance like state as the container slowly turned around.

"how was your shift?" you almost jumped out of your skin at the question; you hadn't expected anyone to be awake.

"I'm sorry, did I wake you?" you ask, forgetting your food and moving to hug johanna. she just shook her head, squeezing you tightly. "it was shit. two car crashes and an outbreak of cholera in some workplace. we're so understaffed and they're stretching us thin—sorry, I should ask how you went. was she a good girl?"

"she was a sweetheart," johanna promises, finally pulling away from you. you sigh in relief, nodding as the annoying beep of the microwave interrupting your conversation. you sit at the table, scoffing down your dinner when johanna sits besides you and places a hand on yours. "I need to tell you something."

your eyes widen, wondering if something had happened while she was babysitting as you drop the fork in a panic. "is something wrong? did something happen to—"

"no, nothing is wrong. I just. . ." johanna sighes, rubbing her brows gently before looking up at you again, "I love you. I love the way you look after everyone, how you're always so kind—even when they definitely don't deserve it—and most importantly, I love your kid," you're taken aback at the confession.

johanna can feel her heart pounding as she waits for a response, but you're stunned into silence. you blink suddenly, trying to comprehend what she was saying, before parting your lips. "johanna. . . I—i don't know what to say," you reply honestly.

"you don't have to," she mumbles, getting up and walking away to conceal the blood running to her cheeks, scarlet with embarrassment. she knew it was a risk to confess her feelings—she knew there was a big chance they wouldn't be reciprocated—but still, she wore her heart on her sleeve.

you got up and grabbed her arm, pulling her back. "johanna, wait," you whisper, coming face to face with her. you stare deeply into her eyes, trying to detect any hesitation or concern. when you see only her loving gaze, you lean forward and smash your lips onto hers. "I love you too," you mumble against her lips, before kissing her passionately again.

"is johanna gonna be my new mummy?" you both pull apart in shock, watching as your four year old wiped the sleep from her eyes.

you laugh, facing johanna and wiggling your eyebrows, before turning to face your daughter again. you crouch down to her level, pulling her in close and squeezing her tightly. "she sure is, baby," you whisper into her neck, as johanna crouches down beside you, embracing both you and your daughter.

Assorted Chapter 19 & 20 thoughts

I love how Arc is shocked and uncomfortable at the idea of Clan borders, even the ones Riverstar has set. I like the way that it makes Riverstar kind of embarrassed.

It's like when an outside perspective makes you realize how ridiculous something really is, because you'd gotten used to it and gone blind to it.

Doesn't stop being annoying how unambiguously evil Slash is. "Yes this cat is soooo evil he'd eat babies. No nuance at all here" but maybe that's leftover frustration from my feelings on DOTC.

I do not like Born Evil Cats, also, Slash continues to be Dollar Store One Eye lmao.

The dialogue between characters is pretty good. Whoever is writing this prose is good with it, I like how Riverstar feels that he must repay cats who were good to him when he was young.

"I can't be a good leader to you if I can't be a good friend to Arc" nice line

It was a dick move to spring his leave on his cats though. Arc's about to go home and THEN River's like, "Btw everyone I'm going too"

They lampshaded RiverNight shipping, by having Riverstar briefly misinterpret Night's platonic admiration for him as romantic feelings, then she shoots it down. That wasn't as charming as the writer thinks it is-- like, you're right! I don't fucking trust you to write male and female characters being platonic! This is not a cutesy joke! You should be ashamed of that!

But, ok. Fine. It was one line and ultimately, they are platonic and nothing else. That is a good thing.

though they still had to retcon-fridge a woman, without a single speaking line while she's alive, so that Riverstar could have SOME kind of heterosexual man pain through the book. This is really not the Platonic Win book that some people are saying.

Aaaand now we're travelling

@and-stir-the-stars

I completely didn’t realize that the crying child weekend bash was on 😭😭 (sorry).

Evan is crying child btw.

This is in the grab & go AU and not set within my fic. Grab & go is an AU in which future Mike travels back in time to take Evan to the future to stop him from dying and raises him as his own.

So here’s my day one: Nightmare

______________________________________________________________

Evan didn’t like the school holidays. Just him alone with his thoughts. Sure Mike was there, but was Mike ever really there? Evan’s thoughts scared him, as with many things, but at least during school there’s something to fill his mind. Not during the holidays though.

Mike made him stay home during the holidays. Evan never understood why but it’s been that way his whole life, it’s not going to change anytime soon.

Evan had only been home for a little over a week now and was already getting restless.

Mike was at work and Evan was in his room mindlessly drawing to fill the time. He had a little journal he drew in that acting as a sort of window into my head, no one else ever saw it. He wasn’t really paying attention to his drawings, he was thinking. Thinking about a dream he had the night before.

It was, strange, to say the least. He was in, a place. A place with black and white checkered tiles and pictures on the walls. There were people, monsters, around him. They looked human but had the faces of animals; bears, rabbits, chickens, foxes.

They surrounded him, pushed him, kicked him, scared him. They all reached for him. He couldn’t see. He couldn’t breathe. Then he woke up.

People say dreams are made of jumbled parts of your memory. Evan didn't believe that because if that was true, well, he didn't want to think about that.

He looked down a his drawing and recoiled back, eyes filled with horror. The drawing... It was... It was a bear. Not the one from his dream though, this one was chunkier, he had buttons and a larger jaw, and he was yellow.

It scared him.

Suddenly, Mike came home; bursting through the front door. Evan quickly closed the journal, he didn't know why but he knew he couldn't let Mike see it.

Mike came into Evan's room and lent and the door frame.

"Hey, I'm back," He said to Evan

"Hey,"

"Listen, I had a long day at work and am pretty tired, I brought pizza, we can eat it then I'm going to bed, OK?"

"Yeah, sure," Evan told him.

They ate the pizza and stored the leftovers in the fridge. As he said he would, Mike went to bed. Evan went into his room, his journal sat closed in the middle of his bed. Not wanting to see it open again tonight, he placed it on his bedside table and went to bed.

He couldn't sleep and laid there for hours staring at the book on his bedside table.

What did it mean?

It was probably nothing. It was just a dumb drawing and a dumb dream.

It was nothing.

It was nothing.

Sunset Died - The Loners

New Roommate (Part 2, looonger Part)

While Reginald waited for his food, Gage had taken the last of the leftovers from the fridge. “And I'm not a burden for you either? I mean…"/ ”Hey, don't worry, it'll be fine. Our larder is still well stocked.”. Gage looked at him briefly. “hn, I'm glad my clothes fit you. And you really quit your job?"/ ‘mhm, I think I'm getting too old for that’.

Gage looked at him with a raised eyebrow. “Too old to sell a few things or…"/ ”No, too old to stand on my feet all day. Maybe that sounds like I'm lazy, but I'm not, I just… I need some time to myself. I couldn't get off work until late at night, slept for a few hours and had to be there again in the morning . Day after day. That's no life.”. Gage's face now showed something like pity. “Yes… That's true. Do you have any hobbies?”.

“Hobbies? Yes, but it's nothing special, I'm a nature person, I like gardening and repairing this and that. I guess I got the manual skills from my father…"/ ”I see, well, every now and then there are a few things around the house that need fixing. So if you want, you're welcome to help…."/ ‘Mhm…’. Reginald kept looking over at Twyla and watching her.

“So you slept in the gym the whole time?"/ ”Yes. Before the whole thing happened, I had just moved here, had found this one little house, but after the bang… It was no longer usable. Since then, I've more or less lived for the day. The offer of the small store came along. I really liked the job, but…” Reginald paused for a moment.

Gage realized that Reginald couldn't seem to find the right words. So he continued with his own words. “At some point you need a change of scenery, don't you? You don't really have much of a chance here in terms of work anymore. Everyone is their own boss"/ Reginald nodded. “That's true. But I'll check on the cows now and then, I think they'll miss me."/ ”Hehe. Who replaced you there?"/ ”Gus, a nice guy who wanted to do something other than just lie around. I think he'll do a good job”.

Lucky played outside the whole time and then at some point noticed a familiar smell, which he followed and went back into the house. “Hey, there you are. Well, you've really found a great home… I'd be interested to know if you had an owner before…”. Many animals lost their homes in the disaster and were wandering around alone. And sometimes they were just lucky.

Twyla had finished the cooking and brought Reginald a bowl. “I couldn't find any fresh cheese, but I hope it tastes good anyway"/ ”Never mind, I…I like macaroni with fake cheese. Thank you“/”hnhn. OK, but be careful, it's still hot and bon appétit”.

After handing him the bowl, she let him eat in peace and sat down with Leila. She looked at her and smiled a little. “What?"/ ‘Hn, nothing, I just get the impression you're going out of your way for him, hm?’/ ”Nonsense, he's just a friend I want to help. Sure, he could have made the food himself, but he's our guest.“.

“Mhm… And he smells nice again,” Leila whispered as she leaned slightly towards her. Of course, Twyla, and certainly some others, also noticed the somewhat unpleasant odor emanating from him. But it wasn't necessarily due to a lack of personal hygiene, but rather because his clothes had been worn and unwashed for far too long. “Oh, do you happen to know where the scissors are?"/ ‘somewhere in the kitchen cupboard’.

Reginald was lost in his own thoughts as he ate. And above all, he enjoyed the hot meal after the warm bath. (“I've never been very picky when it comes to food. Whether it's real cheese or the stuff from the bag… As long as it's warm and filling. I'm… really grateful. And she's… Even nicer than I thought she would be.”) A slight smile crossed his face.

A little later. “I hope the meal was all right for you. It's difficult to cook with fresh ingredients in winter…"/ ‘It tasted good, yes, thank you. Thanks also that i can sleep here’/ ”hn, no problem. I'd like to show you where you can sleep now, okay?”. He looked at her briefly and nodded.

Twyla went upstairs with him to show him his new sleeping place. “we actually have two free beds, but Lucky has already taken one of them"/ ‘hnhn, it's okay, I… h-ha-hatshoo’/ ”oh dear! I hope you don't catch a cold"/ ‘No, don't worry, that always happens to me when I'm in new surroundings’.

“really? So a temporary, allergic reaction to new living conditions, hnhnhn"/ ‘haha, yes, like that… Something like that, I've always had that, ever since I was a little boy’/ ”hn, I see. well, if you like it here, then this is your room now. It's also much warmer than the other rooms because of the stovepipe”.

“Mh, yes, the room is fine. Thanks again"/ ”hn, good. And tomorrow I'll take care of your head”. Reginald rolled his eyes up a little to look at his overhanging hair. “Yes, that's really necessary. I used to wear it very short"/ ‘Should I take care of the beard as well?’/ ”No, I look like a teen without it. It can stay"/ ”o.k. Then take a rest for now”.

Twyla turned around and walked slowly to the door. Then she stopped for a moment. “Tell me… How old are you anyway?"/ ‘Me?’/ ‘Hn, do you see anyone else here I could ask?’/ ‘Oh, no… I'm 41, why do you ask?’/ ”Just interested. Sometimes it's hard to guess someone's age, So it's really time for a haircut, I'm looking forward to it, hnhn, good night”.

Reginald followed her a few steps outside the door. Then the easel caught his eye. “Which one of you paints here?"/ ”Me, mostly. Sometimes Gage too, but only when he's extremely bored, hnhn. But I paint to get through all the chaos here"/ ‘and where do you get the colors?’/ ‘I make them myself.’/ ‘Oh… O.K.’.

“It's something special when you can create certain things with your own hands. When I still had a garden back then… I spent almost the whole day tending the plants"/ ‘And they certainly grew well thanks to the good care’/ ‘I don't want to brag, but… Yes’. Twyla had to giggle a little.

“d-do you like gardening?"/ ‘Me? Sure, hn./ ‘Silvia, she… She hated it when I spent more time with my plants’/ ‘Silvia?’/ ‘Yes, my… My almost-wife’/ ‘Oh, is she…’/ ‘No, she's not dead, maybe… Maybe I can tell you about her later?’/ ”mhm. I hope you sleep well tonight, Reggie"/ ‘thank you’.

Twyla went to her room and put on her sleeping clothes. She was pretty tired today, even though she hadn't done much. But time passed unusually quickly today. “His almost-wife? If she's not dead… something must have happened. He's quite reserved, almost shy, but not completely closed off. If he wants to talk, I'm happy to listen.”.

It wasn't just Twyla and Reginald who went to bed early that night. Leila and Gage also went to bed early. It was pleasantly warm in the house, but the cold that winter brought with it was quite unpleasant. But not for Lucky, who played outside for most of the day. But he knew that when everyone else went to sleep, it was time for him to get some rest too.

Mizole:.......... You actually like that?

Baja: yeah!... they had a lot of personality in it. Why did you change it? It was so rugged and aggressive now it's all polished now which I love but the original one had such character

Mizole:............... Wow.....uh.......*humph*. You know heh .... when I got signed to a label they wanted a specific genre and all that....hehehe..........* Inhale* ...... What's with the bag and why is it moving?

Baja: oh They're salmonoids. I got some during my volunteer shift at grizz-co. Got a lot of these little guys. I like to eat them raw.....*eating* I got them for you mahi ait tons of them during my shift.

Mahi: nice! Thanks I like to eat them raw too...*eating* They're juicer too

Warabi: *ugh* I can never get used to that.......Any of y'all know Neta 's finflixs password?

Mhai: bassbaba@86

_______________________________________________

Mahi: okay so what's the plot of this?

Warabi: okay, so it takes place during the great turf war. Two soldiers one inkling and one octoling who grew up together and are childhood best friends. And the story switches from backstory to backstory until it goes all the way to present day and then it all comes together during the end of the movie. It's really sad like it's so sad.

Baja: Oh I saw this... We had to watch it in school

Mizole: eh

Neta: Why are y'all in my apartment?!

Mahi: *eat* hey boss. you look like shit.......

Baja: AHHHHH... I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I told myself that I wouldn't do this again and I did it again. I'm really sorry I'm so sorry!

October 18th: Spooky Fiesta

Today we have decided to make dinner at home we're going to make a little Fiesta for ourselves we go to the grocery store and get

everything that we are going to need to make some really good tacos and nachos. We buy everything we're going to need. Lettuce, tomatoes, several different kinds of cheese we're going to make our own Nacho cheese as well i go down the aisle that has the Taco shells on it and found a pouch of made out of tofu. I'm not really sure about it, but it sounds like it might be good so we give it a try we go home and start prepping everything for our Fiesta dinner.

Matthew cuts the lettuce and it is done so well it honestly looks like it was shredded for tacos the tomatoes are diced so nicely he even minced the jalapenos so fine that they just melted right into the Nacho cheese i began warming the refried beans and the tofu mix i opened the tortilla chip bag, pouring the contains onto a large platter once the Nacho cheese fully melted i pour it on the chips, adding the refried beans the tofu mix chopped onions the cute little diced tomatoes guacamole and sour cream.

Then it's time to make the tacos we take the soft Taco shells and layer all of the ingredients together.

"So what movie did you choose for our spooky Fiesta tonight?" I asked Matthew

"I went with a classic double feature"

"Oh, what is that?" i ask.

"Casper followed by Casper meets Wendy" he tells me.

"Two good ones" I tell him, picking up my tray of nachos

Now eating tacos and nachos watching back-to-back Halloween movies sounded like a really good idea and while it was a lot of fun and we really enjoyed it, it was also a bit messy but that's OK.

"That's what carpet cleaners for" Matthew told me, looking down at the taco fillings that had fallen onto the floor

We both laughed and continued eating our dinner, watching the movie

The next morning, there was Matthew spraying the spot with carpet cleaner

"See, it came right out", he told me with a smile

"Good. I'm glad, by the way, we still have some fiesta goodies leftover" i tell him.

" lunch" Matthew said with a smile

"Yep, lunch. And I have to say, the tofu Taco filling was a lot better than I thought it was going to be. It was really good we will definitely be buying more of that"

"Oh yes, many more Fiesta nights in our future", Matthew says with a smile.

OK well now I'm thinking about it a bunch

So my great grandpa died to cancer when I was in 6th or 7th grade, it was the first and to this day, only major death in my life so to say it had an impact on me is a bit of an understatement

First off, he was the only male role model in my life, like ever. My dad walked out on me before i was born, and my step dad was such a piece of shit I never considered him any kind of father figure, just a leach living in the same house who happened to be married to my mother and have donated sperm for my siblings

My mother's father *also* walked out on her

I have a singular uncle, and while he's an awesome guy now, he was literally a teenager unpacking a lot of complex trauma himself while I was growing up

I don't think my family really... worried? At all about the whole lack of male role models thing, I was a girl after all, I can learn everything I need to know from all these women around me

Except I'm not a woman, and it would be really nice to have a standard to hold myself to

For a while I considered my grandpa, he was a veteran, he took care of my grandma, my memories of him are mostly good

But unfortunately he died when I was too young to be smart enough to make sure I got to know him. I know he liked wood working, I've got a rocking horse he made me, it's in our garage. And a half finished dollhouse he started when I was 5, and died before he ever finished it

My memories of him are almost entirely of him in his lazyboy, before things got bad, and then in his hospital bed when they got real bad

I've got maybe a handful of memories from when I was real young before he was old and tired and sick, riding around on the four-wheeler with him in the Alaskan wilderness, helping with chores around the cabin, that sort of thing

But I didn't truly know him, and the more stories I hear from my mom the more... the more I'm glad I didn't? I don't want to sully the memory of the only male rolemodel from my family I've got, so I'll leave it at he was certainly a product of his time, and as an old white Christian man I'm certain you can guess what sort of opinions he held I do not

All this to say I clearly have a complicated relationship with my memory of and the legacy of my great grandpa

I remember pretty clearly the last time I saw him, it was the weekend, we drove the 2 hours to my grandparents house in the literal middle of nowhere

I remember staring at a bowl of soup someone had put in front of me, my great grandma's famous chicken corn chowder. This soup has caused fist fights over who gets to take the leftovers home. I couldn't eat any of it

It was very obvious to everyone this was a final hurrah, grandpa hadn't been talking or doing much of anything for weeks and now he was insisting people come talk to him and making people call family out of state. He knew. We knew.

There was a whole lot of sitting around just hugging people and crying and that's all a blur, but when he called me over, I remember exactly what he said and I think I always will. Some of it I'm keeping close to my chest because that was for me only, but he ended it with "Please add more color to your life"

12 year old me did not take that to heart. I was goth/emo and proud of it and I wasn't about to let some dead old guy tell me how to dress

But I did actually take it to heart. By 9th grade I had a fully rainbow coat from one of those Indian import stores, I wore it every single day of high-school until eventually it fell apart to the point I couldn't. I've worn mismatched brightly colored or rainbow socks just as long. Most of my clothes are still black and gray, but I hang up colorful art all around me, I buy the most colorful water bottle I can find

In a weird way I think it helped me come to terms with my queer identity. I know he didn't mean "go be queer and happy" that man would have disowned me if he had lived long enough to see me go from his perfect granddaughter to a queer freak

But his urging to add color lead to a lot of queer people approaching me in my high-school years. Before I was ready to accept who I was, I was a walking billboard of queerness in my rainbow jacket, and that surrounded me with Trans and bi and lesbian and gay people and every flavor of queer, and gave me the space to explore myself and my identity in a way I might not ever have if I had just kept myself in my dark closet of shame

There is literally no point to this post, and I'll probably delete it before the end of the day. But boy is life complicated, and I sure am glad an old racist white man told me to add more color to my life, maybe I'll pretend to have forgotten all the shit my mom's told me

[lightadarttomendyourheart]

i've never felt more comfortable. my flat is literally everything. and i enjoy going to office hybrid cause it really makes me appreciate the days when i'm at home. otherwise i need to find excuses to leave the house but at least this way i'm getting some exercise in every week. low key wish it was 2 days/week but it is what is is.

i forgot how amazing it was living alone. idk why but i love cleaning my space. doing laundry and organizing my things and showering and then lighting a candle and making my lunch for tomorrow. even sweeping the kitchen floor (and i hate sweeping). idk what it is but it just makes me feel.. together? i think it helps my place is so clean and nice in general, cause then when i clean i feel like it's ACTUALLY clean, not just surface clean if that makes sense.

i literally hope i don't have to live with a man ever again. i know my view is skewed because of jake, he made me really hate it at the end. but i know i just haven't found the right guy to live with. but even thinking about it, living with someone else, is repulsive. like, get the f out of my space. i enjoy my quiet time so much.

i've also gotten better at deciding what to make for dinner. usually and in the past it was always so hard and very stressful. even just thinking about what to make that isn't super unhealthy or doesn't require 15 ingredients. but i made tacos 2 weeks ago and i had leftover sour cream that's going to go bad soon so boom, buy some frozen perogies and make those. i dont remember it being this easy in uni but i also had no clue what i was doing and was teaching myself how to cook. it also wasn't this easy living with jake - but lets be real food was always a problem. would never eat leftovers, never had the energy to give any sort of input other than in the summertime. god i have so much resentment and bitterness. i did it to myself. i stayed. for probably 6 months too long. but ykno what, if i left any earlier i'd probably second guess myself and wonder what if. and, idk if i would've moved to calgary. i know i wouldn't be living in this apartment.

god my life would be so different if i had stayed longer. and honestly, i was on the trajectory for it. i even considered staying and maybe do it sometime in january after the holidays. omg i would've gone fucking crazy. laid off, so much time on my hands, him working, me doing absolutely nothing. me looking for some sort of job in vancouver. it makes me sweat just thinking about it. i would've been even more miserable than i had been before.

one thing that really stumps me is he KNEW i was unhappy. literally. he said. i know you haven't been happy for a while. LIKE?? OK?? so you're just going to not say anything or do anything and hope it figures itself out?? fuck he's such a dumb fucking idiot.

i really need this therapy session on sunday. he has literally made me hate and not trust men. i think that's it. i just don't trust anyone to give me a life better than i can give myself.

and maybe that's partly why i'm so down for Brandon. he lives so far there is literally no chance of him ruining my life lmao cause he'll eventually go home far away and i'm here safe from his masculinity.

but brandon is legit the polar opposite of jake. he's kind and loves cats and loves trance and doesn't smoke weed and likes to drink and doesn't LIE and make up stupid stories and fly off the handle with substances.

we'll see how she goes but at least right now i've not been as obsessed with brandon cause i've been so busy being happy on my own. 79 days.

Comforting

mat barzal x reader

word count: 1.9k

note: posting this from the airplane. I won’t be on here much until the end of august but as always feel free to send in any requests :)

tw: talks of anxiety. ik it looks different for everyone, this is based on my experience, but I’m not very good at expressing my feelings lol

You were having a bad day. That was clear from the moment you woke up and as the day went on it progressively got worse. You just had those days sometimes were your anxiety just got too overwhelming and you couldn't exactly pin down where it came from. But it got to you and the added stress of your final few weeks of school was becoming too much. So except for school you stayed at home all day, mostly in bed watching a show. Then you saw that Mat texted you a while ago and while it took a lot of energy to respond, you did because you didn't want to leave him hanging.

14:13 Mat: are you coming tonight?

17:34 You: sorry I'm not feeling well :( good luck though!!

17:46 Mat: oh no, I'm sorry. what's wrong?

Because you knew he had to turn his phone off soon, you didn't respond. You felt bad about it, but for some reason couldn't bring yourself to.

You and Mat had been seeing each other for a few weeks now. You hadn't specifically talked about being in a relationship, but as far as you knew, you were exclusively seeing each other. That's also why he didn't know about your struggles with anxiety yet. It's not a subject you took lightly and shared with anyone. Plus you were worried about how he'd react to it, so you decided to put it off.

After barely eating your leftovers from yesterday, you decided to watch Mat's hockey game online. He had given you his login information so you could watch it for free. The game was intense and distracted you from your worries. After the game you went back to your TV show to keep the intrusive thoughts away.

A little while later your phone rang. It was Mat. And while that brought a small smile to your face, you didn't pick up. Again there was something inside you telling not to do it. But when he called again five minutes later, the bad feeling you got for ignoring him overpowered your anxiety.

"Hello?"

"Hey! Are you alright? You never answered my text," he said obviously concerned.

"Yes. I'm just not feeling well, sorry."

"Are you sick? Can I do something?"

"No, just feeling off. It's ok." He paused.

"Did I do something?"

"No! I promise, just a bad day. Don't worry."

"Do you want me to come over? I can be there in half an hour."

"No, it's ok. I'm actually kind of tired so I'm going to go to sleep now." A lump started to form in your throat. You just wanted this day to be over and avoid everyone, but you hated how much you were pushing him away.

"(Y/n). You can talk to me. Tell me what's bothering you. I'm here for you."

"It's fine. I'm ok, I swear. It's just-," but you couldn't finish the sentence because you were on the verge of crying. "I gotta go."

"Are you crying? No! (Y/n), wait. Talk to me please. I don't like the idea of you being alone like that." You couldn't answer right away, still fighting the tears. "Actually, let me come over so we can talk in person. Better than over the phone. Or I'll pick you up and we go back to my place if you want."

"Can we just talk tomorrow?"

"Ok, I'm going to ask one more time. Please let me come over? If the answer is still no, I'll respect it and we'll talk tomorrow. Even though I hate it because I want to be there for you. Please let me be there for you." You were silent, but the battle going on in your head certainly wasn't. You didn't want him to see you like this, but from the few times you had cuddled you knew how good he could make you feel. "I'll even stop and get ice cream on my way."

A small laugh escaped you. "Okay."

"Just saying yes for the ice cream, eh?"

"Yes."

"That's fine by me. I'll bring you ice cream anytime you want. Ok, I'll be there in like half an hour."

You hung up and couldn't believe how he made you go from almost breaking down to smiling in less than a minute. Your heart tightened at the thought of how persistent he was and how no matter how much you pushed him away he wouldn't let you.

And true to his word, 30 minutes after hanging up, he texted that he arrived. You fixed your hair, but couldn't really do much about your puffy face so you just let it go. You rang the buzzer to let him into the building and a few minutes later he knocked on the door. Before opening it, you took a deep breath to calm your rapidly beating heart.

"Hey." Mat stood there in sweatpants and long sleeve, his hair messy and a big smile on his face. Then he held up the bag that was in his hands. "This is gonna melt."

Wordless, you led him to your bedroom. Your bed was still unmade from you lying in it all day and your room was messier than usual, but Mat didn't seem to mind. "Spoons?"

You nodded and quickly went to the kitchen to grab two spoons. When you returned, Mat had taken off his shoes and made himself comfortable in your bed. He grinned when he saw you stopped in the doorframe, then nodded his head, indicating you to join him. You did and gladly accept the tub of ice cream he pulled from the bag. He didn't hesitate to put his arm around you and pull you closer to him. You breathed in his scent that had an almost immediate calming effect. You were definitely falling hard for him.

"Were you watching something?," he asked after a few minutes of you eating in silence. He nodded to your laptop on the edge of the bed that had now gone into sleep mode.

"New girl. It's my comfort show. I always watch it when I have a bad day."

"You want to tell me about that? It's ok if you don't, I don't want to push you. But you can. I just want you to know that." You smiled gratefully up at him, but didn't proceed to say anything. He got that and stretched over you to pull your laptop into his lap. "Let's watch it then. I don't think I've seen anything past season one."

"What?! That's a crime. It's such a good show." You typed in your password for him, so he could pull up Netflix.

"What's your favorite episode?"

"There are way too many to chose from. But some that come to mind are when Cece and Schmidt get engaged. Or the spider hunt one. That one is just so funny."

"Let's watch that one then."

"Are you sure? You don't want to start from the beginning?" He shook his head and you didn't feel like you could convince him otherwise so you just pulled it up.

"So what you need to know, is that Nick and Jess used to date. They're meant to be, but broke up for a while. And Jess and Cece are best friends. Schmidt, who is Nick's best friends is in love with Cece but at the moment has a different girlfriend who is kind of toxic." You pressed play, but then paused again. "Oh and Nick owns a bar and Cece works at that bar. That's it."

The episode started playing and a few minutes later you were done eating your ice cream. There was still some left, while Mat on the other hand was already done with his. You stared at him I'm disbelief. "What?", he said licking his spoon clean. You chuckled in response and got up to throw his tub away and to put yours in the freezer. You climbed back into bed into his waiting arms. You melted right into him, resting your head against his chest. You already felt a lot calmer and more relaxed than before he got there, which made you snuggle even more against him.

When the classic miscommunication scene came on, you couldn't help but laugh even though you had seen it a million times already. You were nervous for some reason to see Mat's reaction, but when you looked up at him you saw that he enjoyed it too. "There's that smile," he said quietly and brushed his fingers over your cheek. You blushed, but held his gaze. He really had the most beautiful eyes.

"Oh, congrats on the win tonight, by the way."

"You watched?" He seemed a little surprised, but pride glistened in his eyes.

"Of course I did. That pass to Parise was amazing." You both smiled recalling the two-on-one breakaway goal that led to the 2:1 Isles win.

"Thank you. Yeah, that was awesome. He's a great partner." You talked a little bit more about the game, before resuming the show.

"Feeling better?", he asked when the next episode ended.

You nodded. "Thank you."

"Any time. I meant it. Don't feel like this would burden me or anything. I'm always here if you need me." He pressed his lips against you temple and squeezed you tight. After a bit of silence you finally spoke.

"I have pretty bad anxiety sometimes. I usually have it under control most days, but on some days it all just gets too much and I shit down. I physically can't do anything and I couldn't even tell you what exactly I'm anxious about, which makes it so much worse. I just get too overwhelmed and give up. I do go to therapy, which helps. But on these off days, I don't know, I'm immobile and just want to be alone."

"Ok. I understand. I'm sorry that you go through this." He kissed your temple again. "But I want you to know you don't have to be alone."

"Thank you." You both smiled and this time he sank his lips to yours. It wasn't until they touched that you realized how much you were craving him. His lips were soft against yours and so was his tongue, that slid into your mouth with ease. And that's all it stayed as, but your heart was about ready to explode with happiness. You hadn't really found anything that could make you feel better from your anxiety, except for maybe New Girl, but even that didn't always help. But there he was. Brown-haired hockey boy everyone told you to stay away from. Sitting in your bed in your tiny apartment, bringing you ice cream, watching your favorite show, kissing you senseless.

You didn't speak much for the rest of the night. At some point you fell into a deep sleep in his arms. You couldn't remember the last time you slept this good, especially after a day like the one before. When you woke up, you were alone. A little disappointed you sat up to look for you phone, but found a piece of paper next to you instead.

Had to go to practice. Call me when you wake up.

Thank you for letting me in.

x Mat

Grinning widely, you sank back onto your mattress and all you could think about was how much you loved him. Yes. Over night it must have just clicked. You were in love with Mat.

Seriously 😅

What started as a small BBQ has now involved into a team event

You actually had no intention on inviting the guys

Seriously it was by accident

You mentioned you couldn't hang out on the weekend because eyour family was having a BBQ

"Did someone say BBQ?"- Osamu

Seriously he could have been a country away and heard the words "BBQ" and came running 🙄

"Oh that's OK YN we will just come to your BBQ no big deal"- Atsumu

Ummm 😅

"They didn't even invite us"- Suna

Suna is the only one looking out for you 🤣

"Sure they did! Didn't you YN?"- Atsumu

"Uhhh sure"- you

Seriously you are too cute YN and way too nice to say no

You figure you better warn your parents

"Umm so I have some friends coming to the BBQ we might need more food?"

"No worries! We have plenty"- your parents

Famous last words

Thankfully Kita shows up with side dishes 🤣

Because when the team rolls up your parents are like

👁👄👁

Feeding a dozen plus 6 ft tall volleyball stars is no laughing matter

"I told you we'd need more food"- you 😅

Kita is an absolute angel and came prepared

He also made sure the guys stopped and grabbed food before coming 🤣

Legit these boys eat like 400 meals a day

Osamu is like Kags

Constantly having food in his hand 🤣
