Cycle
Part I: Vessels Vixen
Pairing: (Poly!) Sleep Token x (F!)Reader
Genre/Warnings: This chapter is mainly Vessel x Reader for lore build up!! Fluff, a made up character for plot is womanizing, flirtatious Vessel, decent amount of cursing
Summary: After kicking out a bunch of jerks at your work place, you become the savior of a certain masked man
(A/N): I’ve tried rewriting a story involving Sleep Token at least a dozen times now, and this is my last attempt for the first part and probably the best, so I hope you enjoy! 🥲🩷
It’s very common to find me working for extremely long hours as well as doing all the chores while blasting my ears off with an old pair of headphones. I do work in a record shop anyways, so what else would I be doing? Once I moved out and on my own I’ve had nothing to do, so I help this elderly couple maintain their shop so they can enjoy their- what should be- retirement.
The town we live in is decently small, but still big enough to include fascists and douche bags of every variety. More specifically, a group of men called the ‘Southwind Snakes’ by the men and just plain ‘perverts’ by the women- me included. Almost every day they end up either trying to wreck the shop, wrecking the shop, or trying to fight with other customers- which those fights usually end up leading to the shops wreckage. Today wasn’t any different.
As the climate got colder, the rain got heavier, and when the weather is shitty, so is the amount of patrons. The elderly couple were packing their bags, ready to go home before asking me“Are you sure you don’t want to just close up early, sweetie? The storm’s looking pretty bad.” Shaking my head, I respond “It’s alright, I’ll hold down the fort. Have a good day you guys.” I wave them off as they head out into the curtains of rain, just as they’re about to pull out I hear one of the worst sounds in the world; the ‘Southwind Snakes’ shit mobile. It’s the ugliest pick up truck I’ve ever seen, and of course it’s sitting front and center in the swamping parking lot. Josh and his goons enter the store and make a beeline straight for my counter. I groan, putting my headphones aside “How can I help you?” He puts one of his greasy hands on the counter “You can help me in more than one ways, doll” he smirks cockily, moving his one hand out to the side so one of his accomplices can five him. “If it doesn’t include helping you find something, or jamming a stick up your ass, then I can’t help you.” I blink blankly at him, his face turning into one of offense “Whatever, prude. Do you have the CD’s we ordered?” I roll my eyes, walking to the back wall, and bending over to grab a box from the lower shelf. All I hear is inappropriate giggles from the childish men, I frustratingly clench my teeth before walking back and handing him the box of CD’s. “Here you go. Need anything else?” He takes the box, “I could always use your number, if you’ll give it to me this time” he winks sloppily “Yeah, no. If you don’t need anything else from the store then have a good day.” He huffs loudly, exiting as his goons follow.
As I was returning to my work, I hear him yelling outside, “Jesus Christ, what now…” I run to the window, to see him berating a person who must’ve run into him. I usually don’t want to get involved in that douche’s antics, but when he starts hurting people verbally or physically I’m usually keen to stepping in. I walk outside in the frigid rain, by the time I get outside, Josh has already turned it from a verbal altercation into a physical one. “Get the hell out of here Josh, leave ‘em alone!” He seethes at me before hopping in his fuck truck. “Hate that fucking guy… are you okay?” I turn to the person, and offer them a hand. Through the thick sheets of rain I see the person look up at me, wearing what appears to be some sort of white facial covering. Looking down I see their hand, painted in some sort of black material snail into mine, obviously shaken by the situation. I help them up, “come on inside, I’ll get you warmed up.” They nod as I lead them into the store, the sudden warmth enveloping our now freezing and soaked skin. I wipe the rain off my face, “I’m sorry you got caught by Josh, he’s so damn rude all the time.” The person takes the cloak like garment off their shoulders, revealing a set of well toned shoulders. “You shouldn’t apologize for something that isn’t your fault, I should actually be thanking you.” He turns to me, I advert my eyes as best as I can, but it’s not helping that there’s now a shirtless man in my store, dripping with the aftermath of the storm. I get a decent look at his intricately beautiful yet grotesque mask, and catch myself before I end up staring for too long “I- uh I think we have some extra towels in the back, stay right here, I’ll be back!” He nods, giving me a comfortable smile, I quickly turn on my heel and head to the back.
Is there really towels in the back? Probably not, but I needed to get out of there before my face explodes from all the heat. But, lo and behold, the owners do keep some decently clean towels in the supply closet, so I grab one for each of us. I take one more heavy breath before heading back into the stores floor. Almost immediately as I enter, he asks “Is this you?” My brows hitch before I hand him a towel, “what do you mean?” His splotchy arm points toward a picture of me and the owners a few years back hosting a huge metal concert. It was like our states Coachella, or Sick New World. “Yeah that’s me, in all my… goth glory.” I giggle softly, I had done mine and the couples makeup in a goth style. “They love matching with me, and they always thought my makeup was ‘pretty’” I smile softly, his eyes gently weaving into my distracted appearance “I think you look ethereal” Blinking obliviously at how naturally he complimented me, “I’m sorry, what-?” He turns to me, still entirely topless “I’m sorry, that was inappropriate of me to l say wasn’t i-“ “No! No-“ i interrupt, flustered “Sorry- no, you’re fine! I’m just honestly not used to compliments…” he tilts his head “‘Not used to compliments’? Do you not get complimented often?” With hands on my hips, my cheeks puff slightly as I exhale “In this town? Not really.” He take a step forward “Well, maybe that’ll change…” his black painted mouth smirks cheekily, one of my brows raise in confusion “Me and my friends just moved into town, if they like you as much as I do, they’ll be all over you.”
I blink rapidly, obviously confused, my face heating with blush still trying to figure out what he means by ‘like me as much as he does’ and ‘all over me’. I stand still, overcome with confusion, he laughs brightly, stepping ever so closer “You’re very cute, I don’t know how people here don’t tell you more…” our faces become extremely close, all my senses disappear, the only thing being processed is the extreme volume of my hearts rapid beating. He leans in slowly- oh my god, it’s really happening. I only met him today, but I mean hey- *Honkk* we both snap out of our trance. He laughs softly “That must be them.” I back away, embarrassed “I’ll see you again, right?” I nod warmly “Good” he quickly kisses my cheek, my hands go numb at the surge of romantic energy coursing through my system. He pulls back smiling, some of the paint on his lips now transferred to my cheek, making him chuckle. He turns to leave, putting his cloak on when I speak, “(Y/N)…” his head turns slightly “I know you didn’t ask, but that’s my name…” I smile awkwardly, what if he didn’t know your name- “Beautiful…” he whispers under his breath “I’m Vessel.” He walks out to the parking lot, leaving me alone. I think I’m in love.

Honestly I’m regretting saving cheating yan husband now…😭😭😭
If I knew he’d be an unfaithful lil slut I’d have voted to end his life in the poll!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥
“I was rooting for you, we were all rooting for you! How dare you?!” - Tyra Banks
Why you gotta do this to me author??????? I gotta find a new husband now!!!!!! And it sucks too cuz yan husband was fine as hell!!!!!! He got money and was great with kids!!!!!!!🥲🥲🥲
Let’s kill him!!!!!! He doesn’t deserve to be called a yandere if his eyes and dick are wanderin!!!!!!😈😈😈
i’m gonna clear a few things up about his character and other things lol!
the more I write about him, the more I think about all the shitty things he would probs do. I don’t have a single green flag character (maybe calm yandere, honestly i just love him). He just gets more complicated whenever I sit down and think for a hot minute. Because he’s not a character that’ll roll over onto his back and take it like a good boy. He’s a petty and revengeful man that doesn’t take shit from others. He’s going to get what he wants one way or another. And if it means hurting a couple people here and there, so be it. And that definitely applies to Lucas Skylar. If he were to steal the reader from him— he’s gonna enact revenge and take his wife too dammit. He’ll be like “I’m fucking your wife, and your kids call me ‘daddy’.” (oop) His hatred for that man literally blinds him from the bigger issue that reader left him.
ANNNND, I haven’t forgotten about that one anon that told me how much people would hate my yandere characters if I implemented some cheating here and there. (so thank you anon)
However, to be clear, yan!husband is going nowhere. As in, he’s not about to leave his wife for someone else. Like be so fr.
1. His ex, is he gonna go back to her?
-Hell no, and she doesn’t even want him back lol. She was his first true relationship, but it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows. Yandere husband doesn’t happen to see it this way— still wearing rose colored glasses whenever he gets into a relationship— but she made him do things he wasn’t comfortable with. In his diary, it’s mentioned that whatever he felt about physical touch did not matter, and that whatever his ex says, goes. He had a lot of moments where he was unsure about even putting his hand on her thigh, and all he heard was that he needed to do more. More physical touch, more kissing, and more manhandling.
Now, regarding that diary entry… In a different post, I stated that yandere husband would not get back together with her, if they were to actually meet up again. He does write about what could’ve been and him reminiscing, because his diary is his only outlet where he can talk about his feelings comfortably. He has that entry in his diary cause he hasn’t had that talk with his ex yet, and never came to that realization that he’s better off with the reader.
Also, to add on to the whole thin about the reader being “rude,” it’s more like she’s packing up her shit and getting ready to leave. And yan!husband hasn’t picked up on that yet. So, the line that says something about the reader being occupied with stuff that’s not about yan!husband or Henry, was a lie. Because again, this man knows nothing about what’s going on. And most of the drabbles (i think??) are in his perspective.
2. Now what about his diary?
- He has that damn diary cause he doesn’t want to go to therapy. It’s not because he thinks that therapy doesn’t work or that it’s stupid— he just doesnt want people to know that he’s struggling and he’s a bad partner. Yandere husband is all for therapy, don’t get me wrong, and if his son would ever want a therapist, he’ll be happy to arrange that. It’s just that being seen as this perfect nuclear family is everything to him, and he’s a little jealous of the Skylar family. They represent what he’s been wanting, and craving, the moment he could finally leave his parent’s house and live on his own.
His diary ranges from talking about how annoying his co-workers are to talking about the unresolved issues he has with his dad. Don’t worry, it’s not all about his ex. Some… or most pages is about Henry messing with him, and stuff about his wife. He writes stuff in it when he’s upset and has no one to talk to. Most of his siblings are busy doing other stuff, and he’s not about to ask a toddler for advice either.
Why doesn’t he just talk to his wife?
It’s embarrassing for him. He wants to be seen as a provider, as this big strong man that can do whatever for his family, and admitting all the troubles he has is just straight up embarrassing for him.
3. His parents.
- I think I haven’t talked much about his mother, but that’s really cause his father had a more prevalent role in shaping who he is today. What more can I say about his father at this point? Bottomline he’s horrible. Physically and mentally abusive, controlling, always had a stick up his ass, and never encouraged any of yandere husbands dreams etc. He’s everything yan! husband is trying not to be, and wants to break the cycle of traumatizing his kids. Sadly, as time goes on with a bunch of stuff from part four and all that, he’s not able to. No matter how hard he tries to be different, he’s truly his father’s son. Yandere husband was never about to become a better man, and that would have been more clear if I had released part four like I damn said I would! 😭😭 Because he is… not doing so well in that fic.
4. His wife.
- Now, regarding his wife.
Who is such an absolute wonderful and normal human being, that happened to steal the heart of yan!husband without even trying. He’s more comfortable with his wife compared to his ex, since they don’t force anything on him. And he does love her, and can’t imagine a life without her and their kids. They’re in a tough spot for sure, with reader planning to leave him and being officially done with him. He does believe that they could work it out, so he’s acting like a pouty and dejected man whenever she seemed to be disinterested by his advances. It’s a complete 180 from his past relationship, and he’s not used to it.

7, 17 for könig. . . and 22 !! i’m curious on what your headcanons for him are 🫂
also, how have you been faring in this shite weather ?? 🌧️ i swear scottish winters last til autumn 🥲
STEVIE !! 💐 i have been struggling with this shitty weather, it's horrible. :') i'm hoping for a little bit of sunshine soon, i don't know how much longer i can deal with the cloudy, windy, and rainy weather. ☔🌫️🌬️
these are mainly going to be related to könig, because well... even my blog is named after him, i don't think i even have to explain myself LOL 🌷🌷
is there a piece of clothing you think [character] is particularly fond of/that you imagine them wearing a lot or like to draw them in?
i can see könig wearing sweaters pretty often, and to be specific, a striped sweater. he'd wear a quarter zip up hoodie or fleece, or a basic loose t-shirt. he's definitely into cargos, i don't see könig to be the type to wear jeans at all, ESPECIALLY if they're lightwash. similar to the ones his character wears!
what's a book, movie, or show you think [character] would like?
könig definitely likes horror movies, things like saw, the conjuring, etc. he's a huge, huge thriller and horror fan and collects any figurines he can find. i'm a true believer that könig is a bookworm, i don't know exactly what books he'd choose to read but i think his interests depend on his mood that day. he'd own an entire library inside of his office, LMFAO
give us a headcanon for [character]
i have lots of headcannons for könig, but my main headcannon would be his choice of food. he devours anything strawberry flavoured (especially ice-cream and milk, he'll chug a gallon, DON'T dare him.) his appetite is big and he isn't picky—until you bring out brussel sprouts or broccoli......
i also believe that könig is a morning person. he's the type to start his day at 5 o'clock in the morning. he'll hop in the shower (freezing cold, or absolutely BURNING HOT) and will make his breakfast. his day starts off pretty healthy with a nutritious breakfast, but ends with könig snacking and drinking alcohol later in the night. i could see könig suffering with BED, especially as a teenager.

totally agree with anon re: the loumand power dynamic and presence of love in their relationship. it made me think- i also rly like to think about like. the fragments of past relationships that louis and armand both bring with them and how that influences their own relationship as well. i think this comes through really clearly with louis just bc we get to see the development of loustat play out through s1 and understand where many of louis’ Problems come from, but i think (at least in the show) it’s murkier with armand. perhaps this is bc i just adore armand as a character so much but i think his instinct to control and violate louis’ autonomy and right to his own memories makes much more sense/becomes much more understandable when u think about his own past and relationship with the concept of violation vs control vs love and the interplay of all of those throughout his life. none of this is to say that he’s not incredibly abusive towards louis lmao past trauma doesn’t give u a free pass to traumatize others by ANY means but i think the ORIGINS of his shitty behavior are really interesting to think about and end up making me feel sad for the both of them lmao. armand cuz he’s so fucked up and louis cuz he bears a lot of collateral damage from it
well yes! armand learnt how to “love” from marius so it is completely understandable why he is the way he is. and it makes me really sad to think about it too. what's even sadder is that he's been alive for 500 yrs, an infinite amount of time to at least face his trauma if not address it. but as someone on here said, he's on a bus that he can get off at any time and yet he just keeps going and going and going. and claudia and louis have been collateral to that which is sooo unfortunate. i hope the divorce is the wake up call he finally needs but idk 🥲

I just binged thoroughfare and omg... just OMG. Your writing is impeccable. And I love how you write Paloma. As much as I hate that Javi fucked Sloane, it goes to show how fucked up his life was back in Colombia. how it was just warm bodies, fleeting, need to get it over with.
welcome to the thoroughfare baddies club 😝 oh my beloved paloma, i am so proud of her character development. my favorite scenes to write for that fic are between her and her dad. they’re so fucking angsty?? but also when they’re on good terms, it’s just so endearing, which is gonna make the next few chapters so hard to stomach….
yeahhhhhh!!! quite literally!! and it wasn’t out of nowhere either, i made sure to write in like one or two times before when he was very forward with his flirting 🤷🏽♀️ i think he even called her a “distraction with great tits” or something at some point lol
the way he ends up feeling even more shitty after having meaningless sex than how terrible he was feeling before it. smh. so glad our girl paloma is showing him the way… then she had to go and get kidnapped by a cult 🥲
thank you for reading! 🖤

Let's talk about Nesta Archeron and ACOSF
Pt 1,
Something that I have always been in Acotar is half Nesta, that is, neither pro nor con, because she is a character that I cannot completely love and at the same time I cannot completely hate.
I just like her.
Nesta was a bitch, to her sister, to her father (With reason to do so in his case) and to everyone in general, she was unbearable to me and I remember that the first time I read Acosf I didn't understand anything and I was very conflicted about how to feel about her more than anything.
It was after I reread that I formed a clearer idea and that is that SJM fell short with her, her redemption arc was nice, but it could have been much more, (It needed to be more)
And funny enough is that even some of her stans agree with this (There are too many ACOSF fics).
And the funniest thing is that she has already done it, Chaol's book made me completely change the way I see him to the point that in my opinion he is the most developed male character in TOG together with Dorian, because he really seeks to fix things with those he feels and knows he did wrong, while with Nesta..., there was sex, a lot of sex, sometimes too much sex, and her arc was lost.
(And no, I'm not forgetting the training or the book itself).
Now, Having said that, I can emphasize good things that were done with his character, beyond the fact that she saved feysand lmao, that's the main thing, second to her representation of depression and the self-deprecating thoughts she had about herself, hit hard 🥲, because it does happen, and her trauma around being all cold and mean to defend herself after almost being abused, The whole thing about the cauldron and, on top of that, the death of her father, was something very well constructed, and her shitty attitude is good in the sense that it goes with a character in that state, how many times have I seen characters That are like this because simply what they have been through has made them sour? A lot, But on her, who already had a shitty life being a shitty sister, it didn't look good, because throughout the whole process, even when she tells herself that she doesn't want to be like that, SHE IS A BITCH, You can't fucking deny that.
The book itself is contradictory because it takes to the extreme 'what I want to do and I think about it but I don't do it', that doesn't happen like that all the time, many times, if you want to change, you grab your balls and you're a damn good person because you want to improve, even when it means leaving your comfort zone, Nesta came to that point very late in the book, her attitude is not simply dry, it's downright hostile, and many people confuse that.
Hostile and dry are not the same, Manon for example, is dry with those who love her, but not hostile (all the time), that is why she is such a beloved character. Rowan, at first is hostile but then he's just Rustic and that's it, because it's his way of shielding himself. Shit, Even Feyre becomes dry (and confused with hostile a lot by some fans) the first time she visits Velaris, (with all reason) but again, to shield herself, and this does not take away the affection for the character because we can empathize And understand why.
With Nesta, we understand why and we don't understand why at the same time, and that in a way, is the point, hurt people hurt people, but why did SJM take her so far if she wanted to give her an arc of redemption? And if she took it that far then why she didn't really make her go through her steps and try to fix her mess?
A character that grows is the one who is self-aware of what she did and does something about it, something for real, and the book end just when she was starting LMAO.
Now, it may be that the intention is that all of that was the journey and the end of the book was the beginning of her "i'm gonna try" era, which would make sense, but 😬 idk, i hold on to that. The book is good, and they empower her quite a bit, and that, taking away everything else, makes her a pretty good character, which is what her fans praise about her book, but I definitely think it could have been better.
I will touch more on the topic in depth.
There is a second part 😉.

(Manga Spoilers btw)
I'm rereading the end of the wano arc and egghead cause I have shitty memory and I just 🥲
My baby Tama, she suffered so much but she clung to the hope Sukiyaki gave her that one day everything would get better and she stayed happy regardless of everything because she believed in the Kozuki clan and they came back in the end to save Wano and Luffy kept his promise
All her suffering, all the terrible things she had seen that no child her age should have to endure were so clear in this moment and her asking speed to stay with her as her mom before breaking down
Nami please hug her and never let go, she deserves so much love
The fact that she helped them fight despite not needing to and being a great help in lowering the number of pirates fighting for Kaido while probably exhausting herself (I can't remember if her using her devil fruit too much makes her tired)
She deserves all the food, happiness and love she'll get now that Kaido and co. are gone. I know Tama's parents are proud of her for holding out despite all the shit she went through
On a different note, I really love how much Nami empathizes wih struggling kids because while their situations aren't identical, she had once been a struggling kid and there was no around to protect her so now she wants to be the person she needed in that point in her life
She is the embodiment of the quote "Be the person that you needed when you were younger"
Her relationship with all the suffering children she encounters, the way she always, always defends and protects them despite her not being the strongest in the crew. The soft look on her face when Tama finally starts crying because the weight of all the trauma she had endured was finally gone and she was finally free.
She knows exactly what that feels like because Luffy had done the same for her and I just... I love these panels, I love these characters, I love everything about the wano arc
And Luffy finally smiling while sleeping because he knows he accomplished his goal and now Tama can eat as much as she wants and smile and be happy rather than suffering and starving because she's his friend and she deserves better than the shitty situation she was born into
I just realized this stuff will be in this week' or next week's episode, I'm gonna cry
Fuck you Kaido, you bitch. I hope that magma burns you and big mom

I would have waited for it to be over to rr the whole thing, write a rant simultaneously and then send but lmfao the ne chapter needs to be ranted about.
(I'm only 2 words in)
Not Louis being smarter than Harry lmao.
Yeah, Louis it's LITERALLY the only explanation my brothah stop lying
'symptoms' BAHAHAHAHA
Not Louis being SCIENCE and Harry being completely inexperienced on falling in LOVE LMFAO
Noooooo Louis knows what those feelings are cuz everytime he triggered then he also felt them himself 🥲🤏
✨Love ✨
Not harry's symptoms being his literal FEELINGS FFS
Nooooo Louis only has a theory. (I need Zayn to somehow find out about this debacle and repeat it at their wedding or to their children (whichever option Harry hates more and Louis is less wary of))
Yeah Louis you're definitely, DEFINITELY misinterpreting this YUP YEAH sounds about right
(side note:- idk how you even ever manage to put so much work into something you do for free and get so much stupid comments for but I will ALWAYS be SOOOO GRATEFUL 🥲 like these are the highlights of my shitty days I can't believe you do it for free TYSM TYSM THANK YOU SO MUCH 💗💗💗)
(also:- a massive, massive thank you to everyone who supports you and helps you because- just- just- LOOK how amazing these are I literally can't rn-)
Knowing for sure that Harry isn't sick, I do kind of understand why Louis is hesitant to assume Harry's just in love with him because imagine your crush is casually dying in your arms out of a heart attack or something and you are just like "dw, bestie, your heart is fully functional, you just have feelings ❤️"
Ok so rn I am at the place where Louis is thinking about how Harry can totally have feelings for him but still not want a relationship and just- *sigh* don't you just HATE it when a character who is clearly miscommunicating still make sense in their monologue based on what their arc and personality is? *sigh again*
It's so funny that the tables have COMPLETELY turned this time around now HARRY is an oblivious idiot but LOUIS KNOWS!!!!
(I love how subtle this shift is btw because I'm not really sure why but in my brain Louis' characterization seemed like he knows his problems and would just rather be in blissful denial about it, yk? But Harry always seemed like a person who would look at others worst emotions when directed at himself but forgive the other person and not himself)
Looking at Louis's inner monologue rn is so funny because he is just like "omg I cracked a case"
Help-this is getting too long for an ask but basically my point is that if I have been procrastinating this ask for ages and I am still stressing over the semantics in it then you being stressed over the complete masterpiece literature you create that I and so many other people are lucky enough to find then IS MORE THAN REASONABLE!!!!
So THANK YOU
I'll just read the rest by myself sorry 😐 I'll add it to the inevitable rant I'll send in your dms whenever I can complete it lmao my life is a fucking mess with me somehow ending up with fucking BOB CUT rn in this economy but I'll send it I PROMISE
Hahaha I love all the comments I get I promiseeeeeeeeee!
Well 99% of them. The other ones I whine about in a discord group to the point they made me my own sticker
Thanks @enchantedlandcoffee
No, but it's honestly a sticker in a group with like 80 people and I love thinking about what the people who don't know me (because the majority of the time I only go in there to complain) think when they open the group stickers and see that one.
ANYWAYYYYYYY
I appreciated all your commentary a lot! I love it when people understand the characters and why they do things even if they don't agree with what they do.
Sorry about the bob-cut, not that I have anything against bob cuts but it sounds like it was not what you wanted.
A few years ago I went to a salon and asked for my hair to be just above my shoulders. The hairdresser was clearly in the middle of something, like maybe a break-up because she was like... close to tears and kept using the phone and stuff.
Anyway my hair but was at the nape of my neck, like if it was any shorter she would have had to use a razor. Without me even complaining- because I just can't do it- the manager gave me a discount. Like I literally didn't say a word about it and she gave me a discount. That's how bad it was.
As soon as I walked out I burst into tears and cried non-stop for at least two days. I literally put on social media if anyone sees me not to talk about the haircut or I'll start crying. It was sooooo bad.
Anyway lol, thank you!!

tag game - stranger things edition
The lovely @dragonflylady77 and @harringrovest tagged me so here I am!
ride or die ship (your otp): Harringrove
most annoying ship: it's a tie between Steve/Nancy (those two don't work together in canon, they are like soap and grease, why even try to put them together AGAIN?!) and Byler (because Will deserves way better than Mike Wheeler, and he should realize it soon for his own good! T^T)
second favourite ship: Metalsandwich. There's something so fun in the ways those three interact and interconnect...
favourite platonic relationship: Stobin all the way!
underrated ship: Mungrove
overrated ship: Byler (again, free Will Byers 2023!)
one thing i would change in canon: ONE?! I get only ONE and I even have to choose which one?! How can I decide?! [Sadie Doyle voice] The utter inconsistency in how the UD works! No, Troy the little bully almost killing a kid and getting away scot free! No! El needing to be re-traumatized to get her powers back! No! Karen Wheeler noncing around unpunished! No! Eddie's stupid death! No! The rest of the party being shitty friends to Lucas again and again and him just going along with it in the end like it's no big deal! No! Nobody actually trying to pull the mindflayer out of Billy! No, just Billy's death in general!
something canon did right: quoting @harringrovest's answer, lifeguard!Billy. And Steve in that silly silly sailor outfit. Season 3 was a weird beast, but at least it gave us those two things!
a thing i'm proud of creating for the fandom PLEASE BRAG ABOUT YOURSELF I WANT TO SEE/READ YOUR ART: my metalsandwich long fic Of soulmates and colors and also my oneshots Come close and Amok which were banged out in a couple of hours each but I love a lot. And also What doesn't kill you makes you a monster, because writing demobat!Steve Harrington was fun as fuck! Yeah, basically I'm proud of each fic I published, thank you. And I'm also very proud of the shark glasses that led to THIS! beautiful, perfect edit by @imsodishy 🥲❤️
a character who is perfect to me (wouldn't change a thing): Billy Hargrove
the character i relate to the most and why: Billy Hargrove, because... well, personal reasons.
character i hate the most and why: Dr. Martin fucking Brenner, because he kidnapped kids, manipulated and tortured them, tortured El's mom until her mind broke, and the narrative wants us to... not hate him, not really, because after all he was right? He re-tortures and re-traumatizes El but it's for the greater good? Well, fuck that shit, fuck the Duffers and their whole writers' room, and fuck Brenner with a rusty pipe!
something i've learned from the fandom: as with anywhere else, there are lovely talented people in fandom that make great stuff, and there are also not great people (looking at you, assholes who wish harm on others because they like one character you dislike!), so the block button is your best friend. Also, squeeing in happiness at good art and fics is even sweeter when done in group! ❤️
three tags i seek out on ao3: I don't really have an answer, since I don't usually look for specific stuff; I more go with the flow or jump on fics that someone recommended/mentioned that sound interesting.
song i strongly associate with my otp/favourite character: Desire by Meg Myers is so Harringrove it hurts; and while Wolf by Yeah Yeah Yeahs is pure "Billy Hargrove after basking in Steve's love a little too long", Like You Better Dead is my favourite Billy-coded song, because, yeah, he can be as angry as he wants to be, just watch him burn!
I should tag someone, so... uh... argh! Hoping you've not been tagged, and begging preemptively pardon just in case... @salthat @destroya2005 @ariesbilly @suometar and anyone who sees this and wants to do it! :P

Hi Sibi!! Chapter 35 is just so raw and heartbreaking ughhh. Namjoon being the bitch he is😒 I wish he like dies no joke. He is the only character that I wish does not have a redemption arc😒. But I kinda found it a little hot when he said the line where yoongi made her his princess but Namjoon would make her his queen🫣
Also Tae bringing up the past, my poor baby Tete🫠😭 I feel so shitty for Tae, like he is trying but it feels like he isn’t reaching her and it breaks my heart🥲😩. Also the MC muttering and whispering to Yoongi is like ripping my heart to shreds😫🧎♀️.
Mimi’s transformation tho like tf, I hated his character and to see that he is doing a hundred times better is like a whole 360 turn. The ending to this chapter is keeping me hopeful🫣 I just want Yoongi Boongie back healthy and happy is that too much to ask😭😭
-MV FANATIC❤️🔥
NO BUT I TOTALLY GET YOUR FEELINGS ABOUT JOON jfajdf I was really pissed at him as well after the dialogue like bro really?? ALSO FAJDFJA THE QUEEN LINE DID SOMETHING TO ME AND I AM ASHAMED TO ADMIT IT AFNADNF
I feel so shitty for Tae, like he is trying but it feels like he isn’t reaching her and it breaks my heart🥲😩. Also the MC muttering and whispering to Yoongi is like ripping my heart to shreds😫🧎♀️.
PAIN nothing but PAIN in this chapter 😭😭😭
Mimi’s transformation tho like tf, I hated his character and to see that he is doing a hundred times better is like a whole 360 turn.
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL TO SEE THOUGH like all it really took was for him to be able to heal in a healthy and safe environment 😭😭😭

hi belle!! tulip here, you might've forgotten me since i haven't interacted in a hot minute 😓 i wasn't able to send you asks because of school (and life in general 🥲) so i apologize for that! anyway—how are you? i hope you're doing fine especially with all the assholes you had to deal with on this site recently :( i understand why you want to move to ao3 and 100% support your decision. it's true, some people are just insensitive and toss others' feelings aside. i wanna curse the shit out of all the immature people who picked fights with you for extremely absurd reasons. i'm happy that you've decided to publish your works elsewhere since tons of pricks made this site shitty and toxic for you. the anons being rude as hell and making hefty demands doesn't sit right with me. they need to understand that you're human too, you aren't required to overwork yourself just for the sake of others. if i'm being honest, i think you made the right choice. don't let those idiots get the best of you though, i hope that ao3 will be a better place for you! i'll make an account just to support your works whenever you decide to publish them ღゝ◡╹)ノ that aside, please get enough rest and stay hydrated <3
– 🌷
Tulip!! Hi!! (≧ω≦)
Ofc I haven’t forgotten about you! In fact - I keep getting reminded of you when I listen to heaven and back or chase Atlantic - and a Kaiser based piece on that is in my head.
(I remember all my anons pretty fondly <3) The amount of wips I have in my docs that ao3 needs to see once they’re completed (working on yandere rin and 2 surprise characters) ಠ_ಠ
Don’t worry about it! Life gets busy sometimes and priorities right? I’m doing good! Working on assignments and projects, getting good grades and working out - just doing everything in a balance.
Feel free to skip rant -
And honestly? My move to ao3 is doing good cause I’m taking things to my pace and it’s more relaxed than tumblr - cause it’s very chilled out.
Apart from anons and my works getting flagged down, even the author community isn’t doing too hot - mentioned it in one of my reasons; I find tumblr to be a very unfair platform. Authors that have built a huge following in other fandoms, get into small spaces and cause of that small time writers get overshadowed since these authors are given more pref yk? It’s one thing to be a multi fandom blog and build more content for a small fandom - but overshadowing small time writers? I’m not very supportive of that. And before someone point fingers, I’m not trying to be the toxic gatekeep of a fandom, but what I’m trying to point out is that the system here is unfair. Smut (and literal Twitter porn links) are given more pref than actual writing and in my case I have a heavy leaning towards the plot of the story compared to smut cause that’s where true writing for me lies. And I found content like that on ao3 so I figured that I’d move there :3
On another note, white knighting behavior from both - authors and readers has made the place toxic cause of never ending discourse. I just wanna have fun with my writings and share them with ppl who wanna read it and talk about what they liked about and didn’t with constructive criticism… so yea moving to ao3 seemed like a good idea and I’m glad you’re in support of it cause it can be an inconvenience (>﹏<)
I Hope You’re taking care of yourself too <3
(I drank a lot of water so im hydrated (o^^o)

OH MY GOD this is the best day of my life you like my #1 most favorite boy, the love of my life 😭 I’ve been waiting for the day I could talk about aemond with you, I just KNEW that you would like him 🥲 I’m completely not normal about how obsessed I am with him lol like I’m mostly joking when I say this but I tell all my friends that it was like my entire world shifted when we were first introduced to him. Also I don’t want to spoil anything for you but I’ll just say that aemond is one of the only men in this show that doesn’t fuck minors so he gets points for that 😅 also I just want to say that there’s a lot of things in the second season that imo are out of character for him and I just choose to ignore them lol. But you are so real for watching it in one night, I’ve literally watched the first season like 6 times. Please let me know if you have any questions especially about lore or anything 🙏 I would really love to know your thoughts about season 1 like who do you like, who don’t you like, what did you think about the ending (especially since it involves aemond) like tell me everything 👀 for me I literally don’t care what aemond does I will literally support him through anything, a lot of people hate aemond and act like you can’t like him or you’re a bad person 🙄 some people act like you’re hitler himself if you like aemond or aegon, but I love villains and I know you do too lol.
AGHH HI BABE I WAS LIKE OMG I HOPE HOTD NONNIE IS STILL AROUND BECAUSE I FINALLY GOT TO IT !!
OMG I LOVE WHEN A CHARACTER SWOOPS IN AND ALTERS YOUR BRAIN CHEMISTRY like it’s truly magical to find The One ™️!!
So I actually started preparing myself to like aemond when I saw they were going ivar the boneless ( my fave character in Vikings obviously ) route with making him the younger, picked on, maimed sibling bc in my brain I was like ok so because of this he’s going to grow up and be crazy ruthless !!!
HEHEEH hes so unsettling too the way he stares at everyone he’s always CALCULATING
ALSO I DID ALREADY SEE THAT HES INTO MORE MATURE WOMEN ?? And lowkey thick I fw with that heavy 🫶🏻 I ALSO SAW THAT HE HAS A PP SCENNEEE I’m going to start the second season in about 30 minutes I just wanted to be able to roll a blunt and settle down with my DP and my snacks to get ready for it SKSKSK
OKAY SO AS FOR WHO I LIKE it’s literally just Alicent and Aemond tbh SSKSKKSK I ALSO LIKE HELAENA ( I hope I spelled her name right ) and Rhaenys, but Aegon is such a twerp to me and so are Rhaenyra’s brats
Can I also say that the dragons are my favorite characters too I like vhagar and the big big one that daemon sang to ?? I’ve always loved media with dragons I used to have this big ass textbook looking thing that was written like dragons really existed and explained their anatomy and history DRAGONS ARE NEVER NOT COOL TO ME
I really dislike Rhaenyra !!! When she was a kid I could forgive her for doing shitty things but she actually got worse as she grew up 💀 and I hate Daemon I’m sorry I know he’s got a lot of fangirls but like he’s been kinda hyped up and all I’ve seen so far is that he’s an abusive pedophile SKSKKS
CAN I BE REAL I DID SEE THE ENDING COMING FROM LIKE A MILE AWAY especially once he had to fly in the rain I was like oh well aemond is definitely about to kill this child 💀 it was interesting how it happened though !! It’s like a stark ( lol ) reminder that the dragons have free will and the rider doesn’t have full control which I thought was really cool and I DO like that it seemed to weigh a bit on aemond, and that it wasn’t just cold hearted like he literally had that oh fuck oh shit look and I hope they’ll expand a little bit on his emotional state after literally murdering a child 😭 in the next season.
IT DOES MAKE ME WORRIED THOUGH for Aemond 🥺🥺 pls pookie stay safe because I know he’s going to have a massive target on his back now
I THINK LORE WISE IM FOLLOWING PRETTY WELL I know they probably reference got more than what I catch on to like I’m sure references go over my head since I’ve only seen the first season like way back when it first came out but I think the MEAT of the lore I’m getting !!
I’m excited but also scared to finish it SKSKSK IF AEMOND DIES I WILL HAVE TO STOP…

Oh my God, first of all, what a damn perfect gif. 🫠 It matches even the first line of the chapter!
But anyway, this whole chapter was so gripping. From the "tone you hadn’t heard him use before," to--
“Is that her? Is that my wife?” You heard the voice of the man you had worked so hard to forget.
Oooh this bastard. I already wanted to bash his face in. But I feel for Beau in this lol:
“Dammit, I asked you to stay put,” he grumbled.
Yeah, she don't give a shit, buddy. 😂 She definitely doesn't follow directions well, but I love her for it.
“Fuck no,” Jackson spat. “Ain’t nobody leavin’ here but her.” He pointed the gun back at you. “You sleepin’ with a Sheriff now, baby?” You cringed at that word: baby. It brought back flashbacks filled with pain.
Uuuughhhhh this bitch. Lemme at him. 😤😤 I'm sure Beau felt the same way. And you thoroughly got me: I'm a sucker for the protective hero meeting the shitty ex.
As exemplified by this little moment:
“Yeah, I’m not gonna be able to let that happen,” Beau’s jaw tightened and out of the corner of your eye, you noticed his finger twitch by the trigger.
Ooh you just know he was itching to waste this MF'er. But I enjoyed the dynamic you created between Jackson, Beau, and the reader here. All she cares about is her daughter, Jackson's clearly unhinged, and Beau's just trying to protect her and keep the situation from getting out of hand. But when the shot rings out and he protects her against the wall, I internally swooned. Yes for protective Beau. 😭❤️
“He’s the only one who knows,” the repeated words fell in a whimper from your lips.
Ugh, so very heartbreaking. 😭 You really feel her anguish. She cares about her daughter's life, not so much Jackson's I'd imagine. But the fact that he knows where Bailey is is probably the main reason why he's still alive, other than the fact that he deals with "bigger fish" criminals (if this man gets off with a deal from the FBI, I'ma be pissed).
Side note: The line above has nothing to do with the song I'm about to reference (sorry, another Billy Joel song lol), only that there's a line in "And So It Goes" that says:
But if my silence made you leave Then that would be my worst mistake So I will share this room with you And you can have this heart to break
And this is why my eyes are closed It's just as well for all I've seen And so it goes, and so it goes And you're the only one who knows
I imagine Beau and the reader might be able to identify with this song before the end of this story. 🥲
“I hear you, darlin’,” Beau said softly. His fingertips trailed up to brush back a strand of hair that had fallen over your eyes, and you wondered if he realized he had even done it. “You couldn’t have gone with him.”
I loved this moment. I love the "you wondered if he realized he had even done it." It would be great to see some of Beau's POV in future chapters if you were so inclined. I'm interested to know how he sees her.
The FBI agent is really pissing me off right now. It's like he's not even pretending to care about her daughter, and treating the reader as a nuisance. But I like that Beau steps away to make sure Mo is okay. First and foremost, he takes care of his team. I thought that whole part of the scene was very much in character, reassuring Pop that he did his best given the situation.
And I also like how Beau subtly let the reader know, "hey, I'm breaking rules for you so can you meet me halfway and trust me a bit?" 😅
“Oh, so you have no plan,” he pushed off of the doorframe and walked towards where you stood. “I have a plan, you’re just not gonna like it,” you zipped the backpack up and pulled it up onto your shoulder.
Lmfao. This whole exchange was gold. That and:
“Aw man, do you know how much paperwork that is?” Beau grumbled.
That line genuinely surprised me in a good way -- it struck me as very Beau. 😂 "Smart and handsome" indeed...
But ohohooo she's going back to his "tin can" is she? I'm so interested to see where you take this next. 💕
Please excuse my novel, it gets longer with every chapter. 🤣 I'm eagerly awaiting Wednesday! 💓
The Fix - Part 4
Summary: Everyone has a past, but yours seemed to haunt you. You've tried to move forward with a normal life, but the day comes when that's not possible anymore. When Sheriff Beau Arlen enters your life, you're certain he is going to judge you just like everyone else in town does. But something about Beau is different.
Warnings: Child abduction, mentions of domestic violence, language, gun violence, mentions of drugs/drug use
Word Count: ~2.5k
A/N: I want to preface this by saying: I don’t usually bring up real life situations or discuss what’s going on in the world on this Tumblr. My page is meant to be a safe space for anyone who comes to read fiction, and it will remain that way. I want to put a heavy disclaimer on this that there is mention of gun violence in this chapter. I live in the United States where gun violence seems to be a daily occurrence, but I know reading about it can be triggering for many (especially with recent events). Please know that it is not my intention to trigger anyone, and I absolutely respect and encourage you to skip this chapter if you are not comfortable reading. My descriptions are vague, but I still want to be clear that it is a topic in this chapter.
Pop, pop, pop.
The sound was nauseating and caused you to bolt upright in your bed. You were disoriented and confused—you didn’t even remember falling asleep.
Beau’s voice was muffled through your closed bedroom door. “Jackson, drop the gun!” He demanded with a tone you hadn’t heard him use before. “Nobody else needs to get hurt.”
Nobody else? Your heart was in your throat. Bailey.
You pulled on the metal doorknob and swung it open so hard that it clanged against the wall and bounced back. It was so loud that it caused Beau to flinch slightly, but as you stepped into the hall you realized his focus was fixated on someone in your kitchen, his gun drawn and aimed in that direction.
“Darlin’, I’m gonna need you to stay put,” Beau’s tone had shifted slightly—it was more gentle—but his gaze remained locked on the person in your kitchen.
“Is that her? Is that my wife?” You heard the voice of the man you had worked so hard to forget.
“Jackson,” you muttered as you ignored Beau’s request and moved down the hallway. “Where is she? Where’s Bailey?” Your heart thudded against your chest so hard, as if you had just run a marathon. As you approached Beau, he adjusted his hold on his gun.
“Dammit, I asked you to stay put,” he grumbled.
“Yeah, well, I don’t follow directions well,” your eyes were fixed on the man in your kitchen. As he came into view, you noticed how awful he looked. He was either tired or high, maybe both. “Jackson…” you started again. “Where is Bailey?”
“She’s safe,” Jackson moved, pointing his pistol back and forth between you and Beau. His eyes were bloodshot, his hair disheveled. It looked as though the clothes on his back had been worn for days.
Your feet wanted to take off running in the direction of where he had come from to find her, but your eyes found the barrel of his gun and you tried to will yourself to stay put.
“Alright, let’s take it nice an’ easy,” Beau broke the silence. “Nobody has to get shot, Jackson. We gotta get an ambulance here for my deputy, okay? Can I radio in that I need an ambulance?” He was putting the ball in Jackson’s court. Beau recognized that Jackson yearned for control in every situation; he was better at this than you had realized.
“Fuck no,” Jackson spat. “Ain’t nobody leavin’ here but her.” He pointed the gun back at you. “You sleepin’ with a Sheriff now, baby?”
You cringed at that word: baby. It brought back flashbacks filled with pain.
“I’m just here to keep an eye out, is all,” Beau spoke before you could even process what to say. “Every deputy, cop and FBI agent is lookin’ for you right now. I’m here to keep her safe.”
“Looks like you’re doing a great job of that,” without breaking eye contact with Beau, he leaned to the side and spit. “She’s comin’ with me. We’re gonna be a family again.” He cocked his head—he was out of his mind at this point. You had never seen him this far gone, which terrified you.
“Yeah, I’m not gonna be able to let that happen,” Beau’s jaw tightened and out of the corner of your eye, you noticed his finger twitch by the trigger.
“Beau…” you started softly to try and calm him down. You knew the only way to Bailey was through Jackson. His finger twitch made you nervous.
“Oh, we’re on a first name basis now, are we?” Jackson asked, annoyed.
You ignored it. “I want to go,” you continued to speak to Beau. “I want to be with Bailey.” There was a pleading tone to your voice. For the first time in this entire encounter, Beau looked between you and then back at Jackson, incredulously.
“Not gonna happen,” Beau said firmly and his jaw muscles flinched. Your breath hitched in your throat when you saw the shadows creep beyond the window just past Jackson. More people were coming—an array of officers and FBI agents, you could assume. You wanted to stop them—you were so close to getting to Bailey. She was so close, you could feel it.
“You don’t get a say in this one,” Jackson practically snarled. “Come on, baby. Let’s go.” He held out his hand that wasn’t gripping the gun.
Before you could even move, a shot rang out and ripped through the glass. You watched Jackson’s eyes widen. A scream fell from your lips, but before you could process—Beau’s arms encircled your waist and tackled you into the hallway up against the wall. He pulled your head to his shoulder, his fingers spanned out over the back of your head. His body covered yours against the wall and you realized he was trying to shield you from a potential gun fight.
“No, no, no!” You screamed against his shoulder. You pushed and shoved against his chest, but he was a boulder and wouldn’t budge. “He knows where Bailey is! He’s the only one who knows!” You realized at that point tears had started to flow from your eyes and sobs shook your entire frame.
“Relax!” Beau commanded over the noise of officers and agents entering your home. “Just take a breath for a second.” He pulled back when he realized the moment was under control.
“Jackson Lyle, you are under arrest,” someone said as your body shook against the wall. As Beau removed his frame from yours, his eyes watched you closely. That painstaking, sympathetic gaze was back, and it only made you more frustrated.
“He’s the only one who knows,” the repeated words fell in a whimper from your lips.
“I hear you, darlin’,” Beau said softly. His fingertips trailed up to brush back a strand of hair that had fallen over your eyes, and you wondered if he realized he had even done it. “You couldn’t have gone with him.”
You pushed past him, and were surprised to find out he didn’t try to stop you. As you entered the living room once more, you saw Jackson on the floor with his hands restrained behind his back in cuffs. There were two FBI agents standing over him, as well as deputies and officers casing your home and marking evidence. Jackson seemed to be conscious—by the looks of the pooling blood, it seemed he had been shot in the shoulder at least once.
“Where is she, Jackson?” You asked firmly. It was your goal to get some kind of answer, just in case he would lose consciousness at any given moment.
Jackson’s eyes floated over you before he leaned to the side and spit in your direction. “Can't tell you that now, baby. We could've been a family again.”
Anger burned the pit of your stomach. “You son of a bitch,” you started, before you lunged towards him.
The arms that encircled your waist from behind were beginning to feel familiar. “Hey, hey, hey,” Beau’s gruff voice rumbled just behind your head. “I want to kick his face in just as much as you do, but we gotta do this right.”
Your breathing calmed a bit as the FBI agent you recognized stepped forward. “Sheriff,” his eyes burned into Beau.
“Agent,” Beau tipped his head at Matt, the agent from earlier.
“Do you have any idea how many problems you’ve caused?” The agent ignored your presence.
“We got the guy, didn’t we?” Beau shot back.
You held your hands up to stop the back and forth. “My daughter is still missing. What are we doing to find her?” You looked at Matt expectantly.
He sighed but finally pulled his gaze away from Beau. “We have agents searching the direction we tracked Jackson’s truck from. They’re also checking the truck for any evidence,” he answered. “He has to go to the hospital, but we’ll question him more as we get there, and then once the doctors are done with him.”
Your mind raced to think of what else could be done. “Which direction did he come from?” You asked. Matt didn’t answer. His eyes hovered over you for a moment. “I asked you a question, agent.” You couldn’t control the tone of your voice, you were desperate.
“I can’t tell you that, ma’am,” he sighed.
“My five-year-old is out there, alone,” you seethed. This time, Beau didn’t stop you. “And you’re not gonna tell me which way I might be able to go to find her?”
Matt spoke before he processed. “Do you know who your ex-husband is associated with? He runs with some of the most dangerous criminals you could think of. Drug traffickers we’ve been trying to bust for years.”
“Is this supposed to make me feel better that my daughter is out there in insane danger?” You felt like you could puke at any given moment.
“Listen,” Matt sighed. “We are doing everything in our power to get your daughter back. I mean this with all due respect, keep your nose out of it,” he glanced between both you and Beau firmly. “Or else you’re going to find yourself in an even bigger mess.”
He didn’t give you an opportunity to respond. Instead, he turned to the paramedics who were busy loading up Jackson on a gurney.
“Keep him cuffed,” he said firmly as he escorted them through your home.
“This is insane,” you muttered out loud with a hand to your forehead.
“Excuse me one second,” Beau spotted the paramedics loading Mo up onto a gurney just outside on the front porch. He walked past the various law enforcement personnel. “Popcorn, you alright?”
“I’m alright, boss,” Mo managed a smile. Beau nodded and looked to the paramedics.
“He should be okay,” one of them spoke first. “Looks like a direct shot to the shoulder, and there’s an exit wound. We’ll take him in and get him checked out.”
“Thank you,” Beau clapped the paramedic on the back. “Good work, Pops.”
“Sorry he got through me,” Mo seemed disappointed in himself.
“None of that,” Beau waved off. “No one saw him comin’. You did good.”
After he was assured his deputy was alright, he walked back through the kitchen and into the living room where you were standing.
“Is there somewhere you can go?” A second agent approached you from the hallway. “Until we know if it’s absolutely safe, you should really stay somewhere else.”
You were still convinced you were going to get in your truck and go on your own search for Bailey, but you weren’t about to tell the FBI that. “I’ve got a place in mind.” You lied.
“Good, we’ll reach out as soon as we know more,” he nodded at you and went on to process any additional evidence.
You high-tailed it for your bedroom where you grabbed a backpack and filled it with some clothes and other things you might need while you were away. Lost in thought, you didn’t notice the man in the doorway until he spoke.
“Where are you gonna go?” Beau’s voice halted your movements, but only for a second. You quickly glanced over your shoulder. He was leaned against the doorframe. You tried to ignore the way his muscles pressed against his brown jacket with his arms crossed as he leaned against the doorframe.
“Uh, somewhere,” you murmured as you returned your focus to packing.
“Oh, so you have no plan,” he pushed off of the doorframe and walked towards where you stood.
“I have a plan, you’re just not gonna like it,” you zipped the backpack up and pulled it up onto your shoulder.
“You’re not goin’ on some wild goose chase,” he sighed.
You pushed past him and headed back into the hallway. “I’m an adult, Beau. I can make my own decisions.” You were both silent as you passed agents and deputies along with two crime scene investigators. You took one last look around your home before you headed for the front door.
As soon as you were off the last step of your front porch and away from any lingering ears, you heard his boots crunch behind you. “I can’t let you do this.” He said, the frustration clear in his voice.
“You’re gonna have to arrest me, then,” you mumbled over your shoulder as you pulled your truck keys out of your denim jacket pocket.
“Aw man, do you know how much paperwork that is?” Beau grumbled. He sighed as you tossed your backpack into the truck. “Alright, alright. Get in my truck.”
You eyed him suspiciously. “The last time I got in your truck, Beau, you did exactly what I told you not to do.”
“If I remember correctly, you said Jackson wouldn’t show up here and he most certainly did,” he bit back. He rolled his eyes when he noticed your firm stance—you weren’t willing to budge. “Listen, I’m gonna take you back to my trailer and we’re gonna come up with a plan.”
You crossed your arms over your chest, frustrated with his so-called ‘plan’.
“Please,” it was a word you hadn’t heard often, and you felt a little bad about all the trouble Beau had gone through to get you to this point. “I’ve broken pretty much every order I’ve been given, darlin’. I’m willing to break a couple more but we gotta get settled and really think through our next steps. And something tells me you don’t have anywhere to go in this town, either.”
Oh, so he’s handsome and smart, you thought to yourself. “Fine,” the word left your mouth with a huff. “But you promise me we’ll go look for her?”
“I promise,” he looked directly into your eyes as he said it. Your mind flashed back and you remembered how he had avoided eye contact when he couldn’t be honest with you about taking you home instead of allowing you to join the search party. So you decided to trust him.
You pulled your backpack out of your truck and closed the door. “If you’re lying to me, Beau Arlen, I swear to God…”
“Oh, trust me, darlin’,” he chuckled. “Won’t make that mistake twice.” He walked the few short feet with you to his truck and pulled the passenger door open for you. You raised your brows at him, adding the fact that he was a gentleman, too, to your repertoire.
After you climbed in, he closed the door.
A/N: Thank you so much for reading! Posting this a few hours ahead of Saturday. I hope you enjoy! Thanks for all the likes, reblogs and comments. You all are appreciated!
New installments posted on Wednesdays and Saturdays!
A preview of the next chapter:
The drive to Beau’s trailer was mostly silent. As he pulled up the dirt drive, you took in your surroundings. This wasn’t really where you expected the Sheriff of the town to live; it was hardly a trailer—it looked more like a tin can, but it was quaint. The mountains behind were illuminated by the moonlight. Even in the darkness, you felt peace.
“You live here?” You asked as he shifted the car into park.
“Yes ma’am,” he sighed as he opened his door and you followed suit. “It’s not much, but then again, I don’t need much.” He smiled. In the glow of the moon, you saw his dimple again.
“It’s quiet out here,” you chimed as you pulled your backpack from the floorboard and closed the car door behind you. You allowed him to lead the way as he walked to the steps that led to the trailer door.

Hmn................... I'm thinking..........
👑/🖥️ A Genshin Impact imagine with SAGAU and Isekai tropes wherein if Genshin is running / open and there are no (fully) conscious people around, the active character materializes and can move around a certain distance from the device. Example: if you're playing using the computer then that is the center point / origin. If the game shuts down for any reason (example: power iterruption, device crash, etc.), then the materialized character returns back to Teyvat. 😓
Now since this is a self-aware Genshin A.U., they can hear you when you talk. They can also see you behind the screen. Unfortunately, it's only when they are facing the camera. So when you travel around Teyvat, they have their backs turned on you (not the betrayal kind, lol). They want to but they can't repsond to you or anything. They can only do their usual animations or say their usual script.
Additionally, imagine the bond level has a factor on how they act when materialized. Note: bond 10 doesn't necessarily mean lovers.
So anyway... I usually have Albaby (Albedo) or Turtlelinnie (Childe) active. Both are bond 10. So what if I (from this point on, I will use "you") fell asleep while playing Genshin then Albedo or Childe materializes? 🐱!
I assume the first time this happens, they would be surprised...in a good way. Finally, they can get to interact with you! They'd be shocked: like, staring at their palms, looking around, watching you sleeping. Childe would probably try to wake you up, excited to talk to you! But the moment you do wake up, he returns back to Teyvat. 😡! He's so pissed off! He just wants to interact with you! Meanwhile, Albedo would be on the gentler side. He doesn't wake you up and just sits on the bed beside you. He patiently waits for your slumber to end while contemplating on many things. How did this happen? How should he greet you when you wake up? What will you say or how would you react? Would you be happy to see him? Sadly, his patience was for naught as he is transported back to Teyvat when you woke up. 🥲
The second time they materialize, you left your Genshin running in your PC / PS while doing something outside the house/dorm/room. Both would explore the area a bit. Maybe Childe would do some cleaning. Or Albedo would be checking out the books or trinkets around. They would try to get to know you more by browsing through your stuff. They would also try to bring a souvenir back with them....which they would fail to do. 🤣
On moments that you're feeling shitty and cried yourself to sleep, they would materialize and try to comfort you as you lay still...in any way they can. They hope you're having a good dream. Albedo or Childe would wipe your tears away and whisper words of affirmation, encouragement, and love to you. They would caress your sleeping figure and pepper you kisses. They just can't bear to see you sad! 🥺
So basically, you have a secret companion supporting you. 😍❤️
... Albedo plz. Childe plz. 😍❤️

Obey Me Characters’ Reaction to MC Rick-Rolling Them
I honestly don’t even know if people Rick Roll anymore but regardless, I think it’d be funny to see their reactions.
Looking back, I don’t know why I did this. I thought it’d be funnier than it turned out to be.
Lucifer:
You send him a video at 2 in the morning asking him to review the video for you
You get an incredulous response along the lines of “MC, what in the Devildom is this?”
You proceed to spam the song to him until he gave you a ‘valid’ response
Valid response insinuating: “It’s not bad? Why are you sending this to me repetitively?”
He sends the song to his brothers in their group chat only to get a flurry of confused and amused messages
You’re done, you’re done
Mammon:
You think you can Rick Roll the Mammon? He Rick Rolls you before you even get a chance to send him the video
It was a video he edited of Cerberus before the clip slid into the opening instrumental of Never Gonna Give You Up
He proceeds to spam videos of him cackling and one of him…twerking?
He said he’s trying to ‘get in with the trends’
Since when did Mammon turn into Solomon?
Maybe the white hair was wearing on him.
Regardless, you do end up sending him Never Gonna Give You Up entirely blatantly. You just sent him the music video the next morning and he fell for it.
Rip he choked on his omelette at the dining table.
Levi:
He got slightly pissed and sent Baka Mitai as a (slightly valid) response
“How could you Rick Roll your best boy!” Or so he dramatised in his flurry of messages to you.
He was just acting all babyish since he fell for it 💀 it really wasn’t your fault that he was intently watching a rhythm game’s dancing scene before Rick Astley started singing
He then began bombarding you with the lyrics and a bunch of sad face stickers such as: “yOu KnOW THe RulEs ✨ aND sO dO I 🥲”
“I THoUgHT yOu WOuLD NeVer GiVe Me Up, mC-ChAN! tuRNs Out I WAS mIStAkEN!”
🙄 Mans spends too much time with Asmo
Satan:
You walk past his room only to hear Never Gonna Give You Up blaring from underneath the door.
You enter, only to find out that after you sent him the song to Rick Roll him, he ended up liking it so much that he was playing it on repeat (much to Lucifer’s dismay)
You figured he was just doing it to irritate Lucifer, however, he claimed that it was ‘good accompaniment’ to his ‘reading material’
Says the man that was reading Naruto 🙄 no one come at me, I just don’t know why he was reading that of all things.
Case and point, Satan had apparently gone as far as to putting it in his playlist alongside ABBA and The Bee Gees…poor Levi had to listen to ‘Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!’ and ‘Honey Honey’ for the whole night.
Asmodeus:
Spams fake gasps in his messages and sends crying emojis accompanying texts such as “hOw CoULD yOu, MC! I HaD fAiTH iN YoU, DaRlIng 😭” and simply just “😩 😭”
He admitted later on that he was being slightly dramatic (incredibly, but it’s not like he has an ego or something.) and ended up laughing at the video that you sent him
He came up with the idea of cosplaying…? As Rick Astley.
So guess what the two of you spent your Friday evening doing.
He took mirror selfies of the two of you in your shitty Rick Astley cosplays and filmed videos of the both of you making duck faces to the song before sending it to Solomon.
Lucifer somehow found out about the video and was…unamused, to say the least.
Beelzebub:
Confused asf but didn’t really care
Decided to pull up with a plate of food and play the video of Rick Astley doing his funky little dance before he asked if you wanted to recreate it
The two of you potentially looked especially stupid when Belphie and Lucifer walked into your room to ask you something only to see you two dancing like divorced parents.
Belphie placed mugs of hot cocoa on the table before flopping back into his beanbag with his phone in hand and asking you two to “Continue please lol.”
You didn’t. Beel hauled you over his shoulder and ran out of the room before running back into his room to grab the snacks.
Baby’s got priorities
Belphegor:
😀 preparing your funeral brb
He was…not inherently amused, to say the least
He decided to pay you back by stick-bugging you
“Haha you fell for it lol?” “Stfu bitch you’re the one who fell for my Rick Roll first,” Is essentially how your conversation with him went afterwords
He decided to dig his own grave by forwarding the video to Satan and asking if he should send it to Lucifer
He ended up doing so and every time his older brother queried what the heck was going on, he just ended up sending another link to another version of Never Gonna Give You Up.
Lucifer’s last straw was the Japanese version.
Rip
Barbatos:
He was amused? I think…
He was confused over anything else but assumed that he was supposed to find it funny.
Babes no-
He ended up sending you a video of him with powdered sugar on his face whilst he stated: “MC…what- I love you but what-“
You spent 15 minutes on a video call with him attempting to explain the concept of Rick-Rolling before giving up and spending a ridiculous amount of hours rambling on call instead
He ended up covering the phone screen in powdered sugar and you blared Never Gonna Give You Up just for funsies whilst he cleaned his screen.
Diavolo:
Got all excited like: “I’VE FINALLY BEEN RICK-ROLLED! YES!”
He began spamming the link to Barbatos and Lucifer much to their dismay.
Rip then he began spamming you like: “MC, LOOK! THE SONG-“
Yes honey, the song.
You end up going over to the palace where you see him and Asmodeus of all people dancing to Never Gonna Give You Up and asking you to join in
…oh boy
Simeon:
Oji-chan Simeon couldn’t figure out how to click the link.
Press the link, Grandpa.
You had to end up going to the Purgatory Hall to teach him how to watch links and how they work.
Eventually, you did end up showing him the video, to which he asked if you wanted to have a dance party.
Oh babes…that’s really not the point.
Regardless, the two of you DID end up having a party of sorts, opting towards making soufflé together.
Solomon:
He may be a grandpa but he still knows Never Gonna Give You Up…unfortunately
Mans started a whole lecture about how he was around when the song was released and so on and so forth 🙄 we get it, Gramps, you’re old.
He decided to send you and Asmo a video of him ‘dancing’ to the music video you sent him to which Asmo had half the right mind to call the cops whilst you swore you could hear his joints creaking (that was such a self-callout 😭 it’s ok, Solomon. I’ll be the Grandma to your Gramps)
You saw a bowl of batter moving suspiciously in the background so you had to ditch your plans of teaching Solomon how to dance and compromise by going over to the Purgatory Hall with Lucifer in order to eradicate the living matter Solomon had created.
Solomon ended up finishing his Grandpa dance whilst trying to convince Lucifer to make a pact with him.
In the meanwhile you, Asmodeus, and Simeon cackled and filmed them only for the videos to surface on Devil Tube.
This got incredibly unhinged incredibly quickly.
You know, I could’ve done this with any other song but I had to do Never Gonna Give You Up, huh?
This was slightly unnecessary but here I am with your daily dose of brainrot.
