"SLUT!"

mentor finnick odair x victor fem!reader

summary : capitol's darling has gotten quite the reputation after snow's menaces, finnick comforts her through her frequent crisis.

warnings : FLUFF , mentions of finnick' trauma and whatever comes with it

"in a world of boys , he's a gentleman"

. ִֶָ 𓂃˖˳·˖ ִֶָ ⋆★⋆ ִֶָ˖·˳˖𓂃 ִֶָ

Beautiful is what your surroundings called you. Not hot or sexy, but breathtaking. Spending sunrises and afternoons on the beach with your friends shaped your days. They all spoke about their experiences but you were far too ignorant to try anything with anyone. Too sweet, too innocent.

Until the reaping, where you met Finnick. He had tried his best to help you win the games and was now beating himself up for it every night . Deep down , the second he met you , Finnick knew that your death was imminent. Either physically in that arena , or either mentally where you would have your body and soul stolen in the bed of Panem's elite at your return.

To his great disgust and to Snow's pleasure, you had won the games and became their jewel. Not only were you extremely desired one to one, but Panem loved your overly sexualized exhibits. The people were loving it and the traction was stronger than ever. New skimpy outfits every week, dirty jokes anytime you were interviewed, your soft soul had been muttered into a so said slut while your heart was shattering, not being able to let go fully of its innocence.

Finnick blamed himself. He wished you stayed eighteen forever, that you didn't celebrate your nineteenth birthday in a strangers bed, that you didn't have to spend your life the way he did, which is why he came to you every few nights. To hold you to sleep and attempt to wipe the horrors he's also lived a few years prior out of your head atleast for the time you slept. To seek comfort in your presence and kindness that still stayed nonetheless. But he didn't allow himself to think so selfishly. No, it was only for you.

That evening, routine catched up. Reminiscing about the days before all of it , and tears falling slowly on your cheeks in the dark, until you heard the familiar knock.

"How are you doing tonight love?"

"Okay." You responded, your tone of voice completely betraying your awnser.

Finnick knew. Words are hard and no one liked voicing their pain out loud. With him there was no talking about it, besides the sweet nothings he whispered into your ears.

His hands ran along your hips, lightly pressing on your shoulders, only to finish softly rubbing your back to sleep. Occasionally, he'd bring a hand up to your cheek to wipe a tear out of the way.

"I know baby, I know."

"You're not a slut, this isn't your fault."

"Give it time , time will heal everything."

Often , he'd kiss your forehead, in a protective mentor way and other times he'd kiss your neck in a much more personal way. Those times were the days you could actually get some rest. You didn't have an idea of love , since you never got to experience it before your dignity was stolen from you, but you'd imagined this is how it felt like. Dreaming of a world where you would be Finnick Odair's girl and not Panem's sex symbol.

Finnick did not have to imagine, he knew he was far inlove with you, the attraction he felt for you on the first days had sealed into total obsession after the dark bond you too shared. By saving you , he was also saving himself in a way. Finnick did not stay dreaming though , and actively worked against Snow for a day you could safely and slowly fall for him. He'd wait years , for you to learn love all over again and know the shivers and butterflies. For you to get to live , to leave him if you felt the need too. He would've given anything to see his girl happy.

And eventually, he did. Capitol had left its scars all over you and moved to the next one but Finnick was more then happy to heal each and every single one of them when he found out about the perfect thing, you fell just as hard as he did <3.

Save a horse...

(SFW, Read the tags. 1/2

Promts: One's on purpose. The other is oblivious. Can you guess which is which?

"..I didn't know that was a gay bar.")

Pov, you're currently a drunk and slightly nervous Wade Wilson - Not Deadpool. Wade Wilson. You know, that guy who's so insecure about his entire body that he covered 100% of it and often times has multiple costumes/masks on because it's a metaphor for how he actually feels on the inside? Yeah. Him.

You are also currently sitting in a midwestern country bar with a shitty luke warm beer waiting for your 'Room mate' to say he's ready to come home. Watching how lit up he gets when around ranch hands and hard whiskey makes you tip your hat in fear you might actually look like there's pepperoni on your face from how red it's getting.

Slouching into your chair further, you start grumbling how the joke wasn't even that funny and that you could make a joke 10 times funnier, but you promised previously to behave yourself. Plus, you weren't doing so hot anyway. This was your 8th one as it was, and already you were watching his every move. How his canines sat when he smirked, how his arm hung over the back of his chair, how his boots crossed under the table, how he used the bottle in his hand as almost a speaking point, making geastures with it as he litsened, responding to their stories with his own. Right now the topic was about fixing fences and Horses escaping, riding horses, etc.

Honestly, he's heard worse. Ten year old girls talk more seriously about horses than these 4 rugged grown beareded men.. it seemed so boring..

Oh god. At this point, you're wondering why you even came. You clearly didn't fit in here, and these jeans did NOT do you any favors in the front. Was this why he was always so bitchy? Because his balls were getting strangled together by denim all the time?

It's not until you hear something in which you perk up. "Wade. Wade! Come're! Tell'em bout tha' there one time, will ya?"

Blinking, you wondered. Did you hear that, right? That beautiful draw and slur in his words calling for YOU of all people?

"Come on boy! We wont bite!" One of the men laughed. You could of sworn you just heard Logan chuckle and say "You better not.." in a tone that was... not firmiliar.

Slowly, You get up and stagger over only to be grabbed by the massive belt buckle and pulled close. His arm wrapping around your waist as he looked up at you with such shiney yet hammered eyes. "Tell'em!"

"Tell them what?"

"Bout the thing."

"Which thing?"

"Ya know the- Oh wait ya weren't there for that. Well shit, sorry...Oh! Wade, thi's Buck, Cletus and Mark. Have a seat."

For a moment, you blink as if he's gone mad. There were no seats left. Only 4 at one table. And as much as you'd love to just sit on his lap, there's no way he'd allow that. Not in front of these guys. Manly men didn't let other men sit on their laps in public. He's learned that the hard way.

"How much have you had, Wolfie?"

"Ah! Nevermin' that! Sit!" As if God himself awnsered your prayers he dragged you down into his lap, keeping you sat sideways and with an arm around you for no reason at all other then to claim dominance? Territory even? Just.. cause?

Either way, you find yourself a bit too shocked to speak, but let's be honest, that never lasts long. Trying to hide your face, You mutter;

"So...new friends of yours?" You ask the beast of a man who's locked his arm onto your hip.

"Cowfolk are usually quite... fond.. of one another." Buck says as if trying to tell you something, but you were far too knackered to get it the first go.

"We got a way of finding each other." Mark speaks up.

"Oh, do you now?" You ask, sounding intrigued.

It was now that you understood FULLY why he brought you to this bar specifically. Or was he even aware? No he couldn't be that dull- well...

Suddenly, you relaxed completely into his arms, wrapping an arm loosely around his neck, fitting into him like a puzzle piece. Like a wave of relief that you could infact show affection in here. It made you wonder if that was why Logan was so handsy or if he was just three sheets to the wind.

"Mmh. It's how we found ol' Logan here." Cletus made the mistake of saying and smiling at the muscly hairy man in a way Wade knew far too well.

Giving a quick, threatening glance, you take off your hat and put it on top of his head while staring them dead in the face. Howlett wasn't the only one who was territorial..

[d3adbr3inc3lls]

I'm sorry if you've written something similar, but can you write an Amethio x Reader ff where his ceruledge and the mcs pokemon (gardevior if you need a specific one!) really like each other? bonus if amethio and the reader aren't fond of each other.

Amethio x Reader | Fic and Headcannons

Summary: You're part of the RVT and your Gardevior has been napping a lot more than she usually does.

You are part of the RVT, he is part of the Explorers. It was only natural that you two have a rivalry.

Everything about him annoys you, how was he so calm whilst he tries to steal something that belonged to Liko?

How and why is he so calm, it's Iike nothing bothers him, Nothing makes him tick.

How is he even this strong for a trainer who is your age? Does he even have a life outside training?

Probably not.

Either way, things could've gotten worse, and becuase the universe is against you, they did.

You never really noticed it at first, but your Gardevior, despite being feircly loyal, wasn't always at your side when you were at home -you never thought much of it, you let her roam around your home however she pleases- but then you start to notice it. Somstimes she is late for lunch, sometimes she'd take her sweet, sweet, time walking downstairs after you call her.

It never really bothered you, she could've been taking a nap, but the more it happened, the more suspicous it felt. You knew that some pokémon love to go outside and roam around, but she's too domesticated go out alone, unless she was starting her rebel phase.

It was all fun in games, you didn't mind her being a bit late, but sooner or later, you got an unpleasant awnser to her constant napping.

. . .

The sun hits your face at the perfect angle to annoy you and make sure you couldn't do anything about it. Your Gardevior is suffering the same fate, she shakes her head and lets out a soft cry before she begins to drag you to a nearby cafe.

You know that she's spoiled, but you can't bring yourself to do anything about it apart from feeding into it. Sometimes you're greatful that she's the only pokemon you have, taking care of 10 spoiled little kids would drain your money like there's no tomorrow, and it's a future you're not willing to face just yet.

You haven't even taken your eyes off of her for more than a minute as you pay for the pastries, and you find out that your Gardevoir has wandered off somewhere.

Calling out her name in confusion, you look around, knowing that she'd be nearby.

. . .

You couldn't help but groan in frustration as you saw the familiar black and pale blue/silver haired boy, walking with his Ceruledge and your Gardevoir.

You could see his eye twitch, giving way to some annoyance before being covered up by the constant neutral expresion he wears.

He says your name in his usual, formal, tone, glaring at you like you had just killed his mother infront of him.

"Amethio," You reply back, mimicking his tone as your eyes wander to your Gardevoir who looks up at you with a horrified expression before she walks over to you with her head down in shame.

You couldn't blame her for catching feelings, but it doesn't mean that you weren't allowed to dislike them.

. . . Headcannons . . .

I can imagine that the two of you would still have a rocky relationship, but you had to stop going at eachother's throats for the sake of your 'mons.

Over time, you and Amethio might have gotten closer, enough to develop a friendship, but it's fragile, and any wrong action would easily break it.

And due to you being a part of the RVT, and him being a part of the Explorers, you two are waiting for one to betray the other, giving both of you an excuse to never see eachother.

It'd be devastating for your 'mons, but it's a good excuse.

A/N: Finished this last week, I currently have exams... wish me luck chat... but I have one on Monday, and then I'm free for a while. Hopefully I'll start writing more,,,

A deal with the Ghost King

First previous AO3

It's been 2 months since the Justice League summoned the Ghost King.

The League was having another meeting about it. Other then Batman none had noticed any sign of its precense. Constantine hadn't found any trace of the King outside of Gotham, leading to the conclusion that whatever had happened occured in Batmans territory. He and his Robins had searched all over Gotham to see if anything strange was going on. Even Red Hood checked his area, though he had seemed preoccupied. Still, nothing had stood out to them. That was when Shazam mentioned reality itself might have changed.

That had sparked a whole new debate. According to Constantine it was certainly possible. The Ghost King has many powerfull subjects, and near-godlike allies as wel. If the ghost of Kronos had aided him time itself could have been altered. If something like that did happen, only someone outside of their reality would be able to tell the difference. That had sparked an idea in Batman. The camera's inside the meeting hall had become useless, but the ones outside it could still work! He quickly made his way to the security station to acces the cameta feeds of that day. A few closest to the meeting hall had still been static, but he found what he was looking for: Jason, leaving the waiting room and heading for the meeting hall, only to return a few minutes later. When Batman comes back to the rest of the League he immediatly aprooaches the Flash. 'Why didn't you interrogate Red Hood?' Flash admits he finds Red Hood kinda scary. 'He's a Bat with guns, B! I figured since everyone else hadn't seen anything he hadn't either, so I went to ask the others.' Batman puts Flash monitor duty as punishment and turns to Constantine. 'Gather everything you need to detect a change in reality you can and anything that might help us track the Ghost King and meet me in Gotham. I'm going to talk to Hood. Meeting's adjourned.'

Getting out of the Zeta-tube and stepping into the Bat-Cave, Bruce rubs his eyes in annoyance. All this time, Jason was the one with awnsers. As he walks to the Batmobile, Alfred asks him where he is headed. When Bruce tells him needs to talk to Jason, Alfred reminds him that they are having dinner today. He assumes Bruce forgot? Bruce sighs. That's right, Jason was here for dinner, for- Alfred cuts him off. 'Master Jason is introducing us to his boyfriend today. You are already quite late, but not to worry. I have already told him you had a meeting that ran late. Everyone has been making up for your abcense in the meantime. Dinner is about to be served, so whatever you need to discuss with Master Jason will have to wait until Mr. Fenton leaves. Bruce relents. Perhaps he will find a moment alone to grill Jason for awnsers. In the meantime he will put on his best Brucie Wayne face and meet their guest.

By the time Bruce had managed to get out of the Batsuit and get to the dinner hall, Alfred was already serving the plates. Bruce apologizes for running late and spots their guest. A young man with black hair and blue eyes, with a lean build and shorter than expected. He introduced himself as Danny Fenton, and was polite yet friendly. As expected of someone meeting their lovers parents, though something seemed off. He had expected someone more... dangerous. He brushed it off. Perhaps he was projecting his own tastes on Jason, if Talia and Selina were any indicators. While everyone was sitting down, Bruce asked Dick to distract Danny after dinner, he needs to talk to Jason about a case. Dick says he'll do what he can, but Danny proved pretty clingy. They haven't left eachothers side since they got here.

The converstation the group was having before Bruce arrived picked back up. 'Damian, you're going to love Ellie. She is such a troublemaker, I have no doubt you'll get along great!' Jason was gushing about Danny's little sister. Bruce was suprised that Jason had already met Danny's family. 'Well, we have been dating for 2 months, but we just clicked so well! And Danny had already been singing her praises, I just had to meet her!' 2 months? Bruce had been so preoccupied with his case that he had missed this for that long? Duke asks how Danny and Jason met. Danny doesn't look like the type to hang around Crime Alley? Jason says they met at work. Danny tells them he'd been called to get rid of a big rock that was becoming a hazard. 'Oh, so you work in excavation? Did it have anything to do with that new soupkitchen you were talking about, Jason?' Jason starts saying no, when he gets interrupted:

'B, THE GHOST KING IS IN GOTHAM RIGHT NOW! IF WE HURRY WE MIGHT-.' Contantine had burst into the room, when he stopped dead in his tracks, dropping half the stuff he was carrying. 'You, uh... already found him?' Bruce is confused, when suddenly Danny waves at Constantine. 'Hiya Connie! How've you been? Need me to get rid of another rock for you?' Realization hits Bruce hard: this 'Danny' is the Ghost King!?! He immediatly stands up, battle ready. He needs to protect his family from this threat! Dick is confused, what is going on? Before Bruce can explain, Jason cuts in: 'I was about to tell you. When I said 'work', I meant Hero work. We met during that asteroid-incident in the Watchtower. The League needed Danny to get rid of it, but things got complicated and they left him to figure out what to do next. That's when we met, and-' Duke interrupts him: 'Wait, you're that Ghost King Bruce been worrying about? He's been pulling his hair out for months straight! You just disapeared on them!' Danny huffs. 'Well, if they hadn't been so rude as to ditch me I might've stuck around to chat. Besides, they took forever! If Jason hadn't come along and made a deal with me I might not have made it in time!' That snaps Bruce back in reality. He immediatly turns to Jason: 'What did you give him?' Jason is suprised at the sudden question. 'What do you mean?' Constantine is about to lose it. 'You made a deal with the Ghost King! What did you offer him? Servitude? Your first-born? YOUR SOUL?' Danny gets a mischevous grin. 'Oh, he offered me something much more valuable.' Constantine is freaking out: ' WHAT COULD BE WORTH MORE THAN THE 8 BILLION SOULS YOU WERE GOING YO GET!?!'

'A date~!'

After that all hell broke loose. Bruce slumped down on his chair as 2 months worth of stress was released. Tim and Duke were freaking out that apearantly the League hadn't told anyone the world had been in danger. Cass held back Damian as he was trying to attack the 'Pit demon' that had seduced his brother. Dick held his head in his hands, realizing that Jason now had ammo to be absolutly insufferable. Jason was indeed thinking of all the ways he could milk this, and Alfred was trying to get Contantine concious again after he had fainted. During all this, Danny knew:

'Best. Deal. Ever.'

THE END

Getting Along? [Part 2]

Hey! Sorry for the long wait guys! Honestly I didn't think the first part to get so much reader so thank you so much!

Part 1

After the so called "tour" with suho. We come back to classroom.

"I like that book too!" I say while sitting back my seat.

"It's a nice book" Suho said while he sat back to his seat too. We continue talking until a girl comes next to me, and Suho leaves because a teacher calls him.

"How can you manage to talk whit him?!" I look the girl whit a Suprized look

"What you mean?" I asked looking at her and her 2 friend I suppose.

"He doesn't talk to anyone like that! You are amazing! I'm Su-ah btw" she said whit a warm smile

"Idk.. We have some things in common ig" I said as I look at away for a second and than her

"And I'm Itō Yuki nice to meet you Su-ah and?.. "

"Jeakyoung" She said whit a smile on her face

"Nice to meet you than?" I say as I smile as well and from here we just talked a lot.. I mean a lot like we always come up whit new subjects so we never run out of subjects.

It was end of the school day and I let out a sigh out of relief as I pack my bag and wear my headphones again for some comfort but it didn't last long until Su-ah come jumping towards me and jump on my back.

"Yuki! Let's go and spend girl time together!" Her voice was evident like a little toodler so I couldn't say no to her.

We spend all our time in arcade and in an karaoke shop and had a lot of fun. At least I had so much fun. I start to walk to the bus stop while texting my dad that I'm on my way.

"What a girl like you doing here. Heh?" A boy said from behind Yuki but she didn't even turn to look at him and ignore him while walking

"Oi! I'm telling you" this time the boy grab her arm and make her turn around

"Leave me alone" Yuki said in a rather calm voice as she pulled her arm to herself and tried to walk away again but she was phused to the wall

"You think you can get away this easily?" The boy said as he take her between him and the wall.

"She said she doesn't want it right?" A similar voice spoke but Yuki didn't see the face clearly because of how dark it is.

"What you gonna do if I don't?" The man said as he backed away from Yuki and go towards the voice. Yuki was backing away from the spot she was standing slowly but steady until she heard a punch and a groan and followed by the guy hitting the floor. Now she was scared like hell.

"I swear I don't have money! And I'm actually!-" Her rambling lasted until she saw Seo-jun's face trough the light.

"Are you okay?" He asked as he pretended like he didn't care. Yuki blinked in disbelief as she remember about the apology.

"Why are you here?" She asked as she crossed her arms over her chest.

"Wow not even a 'thank you'?" Seo-jun asked as he rolled his eyes

"Not even in your dreams" Yuki said as she turn around and start to walk to the bus stop she meant to be there by now

"Your always this rude or what?" He asked as he followed the shorter girl not far behind.

"Why are you following me? Go home"

"Following you?" Seo-jun asked and laughed after as he walked faster and get next to his motorcycle. This made Yuki blushed out of embarrassment and turn her head to the side so he couldn't see her face.

"Hop on" Seo-jun say as he trow the girl a helmen.

"I'm not ridding that thing and whit you? No thanks" She said as she tried to give him the helment back but couldn't succeed.

"No is not an awnser. Now hop on" After that she gave up and wear the helment as she sit behind and hold onto the back of the motorcycle. Seo-jun started it first he so flowly but after seeing how Yuki was unbothered he fasten out of nowhere and making the girl hold onto his shoulders.

"Han Seo-jun!"

Albedo + Rubedo

All 3 photos/Artist: @Kagura8999 app: Twitter

You were organizing your lab when suddenly there was a knock on the door. You quickly fixed your hair and coat, "Come in!" You awnsered. A blonde man comes in, smiling and slightly waving at your presence. "Oh, Albedo! Is there anything you need?"

'Albedo' paused. But then tilting his head and smiling. Although strange, you didn't mind. You flinched when a cold hand held yours and then something....soft was nuzzling it? You turned around and looked down to your hand, seeing 'Albedo' with his strange behavior, nuzzling his cheek on to your hand.

Your face quickly flushed with red, chuckling. You patted his head as he also nuzzled it. You tried to retract your hand, but his grip tightened as he stared at you. You became nervous and concerned but laughed it off. "Albedo? Did you take something strange again?" He looks down, seemingly ignoring your question. You sighed, sitting down as 'Albedo' comes joining you.

He leaned onto your shoulder, still holding your hand with his own. He trapped your hand with both of his hands and looked up to you.

"Do you like me now......Master..?" He said while kissing your palm. You froze, wait....is he calling you...MASTER?!

Your thoughts were interrupted with a door creaking. You looked at the door, seeing....Albedo?? Wait, why is there 2 Albedo's?!

"[Name]?! Why is he sitting with you...!"

You were cunfused, still wondering which was the true Albedo until you looked at their necks. Albedo has a star.....this one doesn't. Then who's the one clinging onto your arm?!

After things got settled, you found out that he was Rubedo. Rubedo was now sitting on your lap in your arms. You didn't really have a choice whether you let him or not. But unknownly to you, he was smirking at Albedo. Mocking him as his mouth word out,

'I got to be in their arms,' Rubedo said as Albedo grumbled. Feeling an unknown feeling bubbling inside him, jealously

Suddenly, Albedo grabbed your hand and shoved Rubedo off your lap. "[Name], let's take a walk around mondstadt"

You nervously agreed, not knowing what to do. It's even worse when you guys walk in Mondstadt town. Everyone was looking at you and whispering things about Rubedo and Albedo clinging onto both of your arms as they glared at each other. You were stiff, not knowing what to do.

You all three stopped when a drunk man began to stumble along the way to you. He began flirting with Albedo and Rubedo, saying that they should get to know each other. Your patience and anger were about to snap as you can see Rubedo and Albedo was clearly uncomfortable. Both were about to summon their sword until,

"Go fuck off for archon's sake! Who in their right mind would even think of giving you a chance to even "GeT tO kNoW eAcH oThEr?" So go away and leave us alone." You said. Mocking his words. Then you grabbed his shoulder, "And they're taken by me, so they are mine. Back off. " The drunk man angrily went away as everyone looked at the usual stress but calm [name] screamed in anger. And even curse?

Both Rubedo face and Albedo face went red. Like literally, red as a tomato! Even steam was coming out of their heads!! They definitely heard what you whispered to the guy. And when you wrapped your arms around both of their waist, making them come closer to you. (They shivered, from excitement and delight when they found your new side of you)

They both felt....warm (especially down there—)

You check on both of them, panicking as their face was still flushed red. It became worse when you put your hands on both of their foreheads to check if they had a fever. (If they can even catch one)

Then, when you guys went back to Albedo's lab instead of yours because Albedo offered to let you experiment with him and....Rubedo.

If only you knew, they made a contract to share you behind your back. At least they will be mostly at peace with each other. [Beside the people who made you uncomfortable or cause a threat of their love to you. At least their in the basement.....bleeding out]

Aether

[2.] Artist: Shoraln app: danbooru

Location: Liyue

It was a normal day as Aether finished the commissions, bounty, and requests from the people. He's been saving up mora to go to fontaine. He was extremely tired and even worser, Paimon passed out to the heat of the sun and thank archons that he had enough mora to rent out a room for Paimon to sleep in.

He went out and sat on a bench. As if he didn't feel or cared about the heat of the sun, he was sweating. Not even bothering to get some cold water or ice to help him. Later, a figure approached him, and he looked over as the figure was familiar to him. It was you! Oh, how he was overjoyed!

You guys met in Sumeru when him got stuck in some vines while you were traveling. Although you had a good laugh before you could get him out as he pouted. You gave him mora for laughing as an apology. You let him stay at your house and gave them food to eat as Paimon stuffed her face with it.

You decided to travel with him as he was planning to go back to Liyue as you paid all the expenses even though he offered to pay instead. You guys had to separate though for a few weeks because of your business, but now you're back.

You gave him a glass of water with ice as he gulped it down. He thanked you for your kindness as he leaned on your shoulder. He actually caught feelings for you after a few months. You always do commissions for him when he feels tired or injured. You declined small requests from people since some people won't do it themselves.

His heart almost jumped out when you held his hand. He was about to say something until a lady showed up. She kept asking Aether to help her in her house because she needed some cleaning. She still won't budge even when you told her that Aether wasn't available at the moment. Aether was tired, and he was about to apologize and decline, but you snapped.

"Lady, it's literally just some cleaning. Your house is probably not even that big. Stop being so lousy and do it yourself. Or go hire some maid and not a person who's way out of your league."

His heart fluttered when you said that. He slightly grinned. He was startled when you stood up, walking up to the lady.

"And also, don't you try to even take him away from me. He. Belongs. To. Me."

His face was dusted in red blush. He was yours...? He didn't mind though. He was happy. Perhaps you would come with him to find his sister. He thought,

"Ah, Aether. Is the hot weather getting to you? You're face is red"

"N- no! I mean- yes!"

He stuttered as he got flustered. You chuckled and turned around to buy maybe some cold juice for Aether. He looked over to the woman, smirking at the woman. Crossing his arms as he mouthed out,

'He's mine'

The woman stormed off, as Aether smiled at you when he saw you coming towards him. He wrapped his arm with yours and headed to Wangshu Inn where Paimon is probably looking for him.

[ventitititi]

Good morning, ilayda. This is my third and final Gaming request for the day. Please kindly consider this Gaming hurt/comfort request: Gaming and Reader have been betrothed ever since they were kids and Gaming makes it a point to visit Reader during the weekends. During his most recent visit, Gaming finds Reader being rather distant. Rather confused, he inquires around the village and finds out about the rumors about him and Yun Jin getting closer and Reader was expecting him to break off the betrothal to be with her. Gaming hurries back to Reader to assure her that he has no intention of annulling the betrothal. Please also kindly take as long as you need with this request; I have no qualms in waiting. Furthermore, by no means feel obligated to prioritize this request over your other requests

I've seen all your requests and man, i sure hope I'm doing your boy gaming justice as i chip away at these

Cw/tw; none!! Expect lots of fluff, headcanon-ish format, the hurt/comfort is very mild tbh, it's 2:30am here so yeah take this with that warning

🌱. Gaming had come back from another trip in the harbour, gifts in hand and excited to tell you all about the people he's seen and the places he's been

🌱. But... You seemed off. Normally, he'd expect open arms and warm hugs, maybe even a kiss on the cheek (definitely a kiss on the cheek,) instead though, you were... Quiet, distant

🌱. So, he did what anyone in his situation would do. He started to ask the aunties and uncles why you seemed so different, asking everyone he could about the matter

🌱. One aunty held the awnser to his plight, she'd overheard you talking about how gaming was getting closer to this girl by the name "yunjin"

🌱. Worse still, the aunty informed him everyone thought he'd break off the engagement

🌱. Interrupting her mid sentence, gaming holds up a hand, "sorry aunty but i gotta go! I'll hear the rest of your story later!"

🌱. And he was off, running like his life depended on it back towards your house. Never in a million years would he dream of breaking this engagement, you were the best thing to happen to him

🌱. Upon opening the door, you're greeted by a very frazzled gaming. His chestnut hair in a disarray and his clothes all unkempt. Before you could fully close the door on him with some uttered excuse, gaming had his foot in the door, keeping it open

🌱. "Y/n! Wait! Just hear me out, okay?"

🌱. You eye him warily but you do wait, you owed him at least that much

🌱. "Listen, i know you'd heard how I've gotten close with another girl recently, but i promise it's not what you think! She's a performer, too! She sings opera and i just thought she could teach me some useful tricks... Regardless, my point is that you're wayyyyy more important to me! You're like my heart! So please, let me in?"

🌱. He was giving you his best puppy eyes, and while you were still doubtful you opened the door.

🌱. Immediately you were swallowed in the soft scent of his clothes, strong arms holding you in a hug. Melting into him, you sniffle softly, "I thought you were gonna leave me, i didn't know what I'd do with myself"

🌱. "Nonsense, I'm never leaving, not even in a gajillion years! So cheer up, y/n"

🌱. Spends the rest of the evening/night holding you and doing his best to soothe any worries you have bottled up, his hands gently rubbing your back and occasionally pressing little kisses to your face

🌱. Genuinely, you're stuck with him for as long as you'll have him

"You're delusional for thinking Percy is trans,there's no evidence in the books!"The books:

'You spoke the truth,Percy Jackson.You are nothing like...like Hercules.I am honored that you carried this sword'

'Piper hadn't studied him up close before.After hearing so much at Camp Half-Blood about Percy Jackson this and Percy Jackson that,she thought he looked...well,unimpressive,especially next to Jason.Percy was more slender,about an inch shorter,with slightly longer,much darker hair'

'He'd been the first demigod Nico had ever seen in action.Later,at Camp Half-Blood,Percy took Nico by the arm,promising to keep Bianca safe.Nico believed him.Nico looked into his sea green eyes and thought,how can he possibly fail?This is a real hero.He was Nico's favorite game,Mythomagic,brought to life/"Wait,"Percy said,'So you mean-" "Right,"Nico said again."But it's cool.We're cool.I mean,i see now...you're cute but you're not my type." "I'm not your type...Wait.So-'

'He had the most cruelest,brutal face i'd ever seen-Handsome,i guess,but wicked/I was used to hearing from the girls how good-looking Luke was,but at the moment,he looked angry and weary and not all that handsome/Handsome,i guess,for an older guy'

'I can't pretend i hadn't thought about Rachel.She was so much easier to be around than...well,than some other girls i knew.I didn't have to work hard,or watch what i said,or rack my brain trying to figure out what she was thinking.Rachel didn't hide much.She let you know how she felt'

'A pretty blonde girl,her hair curled like a princess/"And your hair?It's too unkempt,and i don't mean intentionally so.(Princess hair too and then her dad is the King of Atlantis)'

'Part of me was impressed with her for standing up like that.But part of me thought her pride was gonna get us all killed/She looked just the way she had when she faced the Sphinx-Like she wasn't going to accept an easy awnser,even if got her in trouble.I realized that was one of the the things i liked best about Annabeth'

'Afterward,Thalia did something that surprised me almost as much as the pledge.She came over to me,smiled at me,and in front of the whole assembly,she gave me a big hug.I blushed.When she pulled away and gripped my shoulders,i said,"Um...Aren't you supposed to not do that anymore?Hug boys,i mean?" "I'm honoring a friend."She corrected[...]"I'm proud to be your friend"(A running theme in their dynamic is also Percy being jealous of Thalia because wants to be treated by everybody like she is)'

'"Never seen Jason fly before."Percy grumbled,"He looks like a blonde Superman."/"No.I think i get it."'

'"I'm gonna be Percy Jackson when i grow up."She told Hazel solemnly.Hazel smiled and ruffled her hair."That's a good thing to be Julia."'

'The sea does not like to be restrained."

'"You're sweet,"Aphrodite said."But beauty is about finding the right fit,the most natural fit.To be perfect,you have to feel perfect about yourself-avoid trying to be something you're not."

You were sitting down reading a book as Kylian was next you.

After awhile you noticed Kylian staring at you.

"Love you alright?" You waved your hand around in front of his face and he still didn't stop staring.

He looked straight into your eyes and he just kept it there, you started to get flustered. You got nervous because he couldn't stop staring.

Then he smiled and grinned like a child

"Does my staring make you nervous Darling?" He said lowly as he began to give buttery kisses down your neck

At that point you couldn't even awnser

Whenever you whispered into his ear he would go absolutely crazy

He always wanted the best for you

Right now it was it was currently 9:00 so it was pretty late, especially for you since you had work early in the morning but you wanted to wait for Kylian to come back home from practice, although you were half asleep.

You heard the bedroom door open and there was Kylian frowning at you.

"Hi love, how was practice?" You said quietly

"It was good and you darling should be asleep"

"m'not that tired though darling" you said while struggling to keep your eyes open.

"Darling, you practically ready to fall asleep. Just go to bed love"

You were watching it as Kylian came out the bathroom and looked at you

"Darling, why didn't you wait for mee!?" Kylian whined like a child

"Love, it was getting to good for me to wait, sorry darling" you said quietly

"But now do you wanna watch it together love?" You added

Right now Kylian was doing a press interview after one of his games.

He would pick different reporters to ask him questions and once he sat in his seat, ready for all the questions to come, he looks around and sees you.

You were the most gorgeous thing he's ever seen.

He picked some other reporters to ask questions and after awhile he was done. He began getting up from his seat as he whispered to himself.

"God she's beautiful"

All the reporter began to snicker as Kylian looked confused.

Then he realized the mic was sensitive so everyone could hear.

Then he heard the most softest and angelic voice he's heard

"Thank you Kylian" you said happily

That's where it all started

Broken Heart/Broken Mind

Chapter Forty-seven

(Human AU)

Sophie and Keefe met in the children's hospital when they were little. Because of how long they were confined to the four walls of the hospital, they became very close during their stay.

As the years pass, they wind up being in the same classroom together due to their physical conditions. This makes their bond deepen.

But are they able to handle when life gets tough, throwing problems and complications their way?

Sophie placed her plate down at the dinner table. Grady and Edaline were already sitting down. She pulled her chair out from the table and joined them.

Just as she started on her first few bites of food, her phone started to ring.

"You can awnser it," Grady told her.

She assumed it was going to be a spam number, but to her surprise, it was Keefe.

"Hey," she awnsered. "What'd you need. I was fixing to start eating."

"Oh," he mumbled. "Never mind. It can wait."

"No, no," she told him. Clearly, something was up. "What's wrong. Did you just need to talk or..."

He was quiet for a moment. "Can I come over for the night. My mom is really drunk and has a bunch of her friends over. When my dad gets home, he's going to be ticked. I already know one of them's gonna drag me into their issues and... I just can't deal with that tonight."

Sophie paused, glancing up at her parents to see if they caught any of that. They must've because they were nodding their heads. Edaline mouthed, 'Of course.'

She focused back on the phone call. "Yeah. Grab what you'll need for tonight and head over. Ok?"

"Thank you," he whispered.

"No problem. I'll see you in a bit." With that, she hung up.

Fifteen minutes later, a knock on the door. It was a tad longer from what she was expecting.

"Come in," Grady called out.

Keefe walked through the door. He was in gray sweatpants and a loose white T-shirt. Probably something that'd he'd be comfortable to sleep in. In his hands was his sketchbook and Mrs. Stinkbottom.

"Hey," Sophie said to him.

He just waved and stood awkwardly in the mudroom until Edaline asked, "Have you eaten yet?" She was met with a headshake. "Go fix yourself a plate then, sweetie."

He did and came to take a seat next to Sophie. Now that he was closer, she could tell he smelled slightly of alcohol and cigarette smoke. Not strong enough that it was him himself doing those things. But enough to that there was definitely a lot in his vicinity.

She decided not to ask. Instead, she changed her question to, "Did you make it out alright?"

Keefe shrugged, taking a hesitant bite of food. He swallowed. "My dad came home as I was trying to leave. As soon as I opened the door, there he was. So what he got to see was me escaping that awful house, five empty bottles of wine, my mom and a few of her friends passed out on the couch and ground, and several packets worth of cigarette butts scattered on the carpet." He hugged himself. "So guess who took the brunt of it?"

Nobody knew what they were supposed to say to that. The only thing Sophie could think to do was pull him closer to her. He stayed and squeezed his eyes shut for a moment. When he pulled back with a sniffle, his eyes were glassy.

After dinner, they all migrated over to the living room. Sophie took her usual spot on the loveseat. When Keefe came over, he didn't cuddle up to her side or lay his head on her shoulder like he usually did when he was upset. He curled up on his side and laid his head in her lap.

It was that bad. She didn't want to imagine what his dad could've said to him. If she did find out, she was probably going to land herself in juvie.

She gently ran her hand up and down his side. When he looked up at her with puppy dog eyes, she couldn't hide her smile at the subtle hint. Her hand traveled up to his head, and she ran her fingers through his hair. Some of his tension, even if just a little bit, eased as she scratched his scalp.

Soon after, her parents had gone into their room, leaving her and Keefe alone. They stayed where they were for a while longer before mutually agreeing it was getting late, and it was probably time to go to bed.

She wasn't in her room long, however, when a weak knock rapped at her door. She said to come in.

Keefe slowly opened the door. "Hey. Would it be alright if I... stayed in here. I don't want to be alone with my thoughts right now."

It took Sophie a moment to piece together what he was trying to ask. "You want to come lay down with me?"

He hesitantly nodded. "If that's ok with you."

She was more than fine with it. Her parents, however, would likely be less than thrilled. They weren't doing anything wrong, per say. She just had a good feeling that they wouldn't be too happy to go wake her up and find her sleeping with her boyfriend in her bed.

But... the way he stood there so vulnerable. She wasn't going to tell him no. She glanced at her parents' door across the hall.

"Shut the door," she told him, pulling back her blanket and waving him over.

He slowly laid down beside her. She rolled over and draped her arm across his waist. He shuffled closer to snuggle his head in the crook of her neck.

"Thank you," Keefe whispered.

"Of course. You definitely deserve some cuddles." She kissed the top of his head and stroked his hair, lulling him to sleep.

Sophie awoke to a presence hovering over her. She blinked the blurriness from her vision. She would've screeched if Keefe hadn't still been asleep in her arms when she recognized Edaline above her.

"I can explain," she started. "He said that he didn't want to be alone, and I couldn't just send him back to the living room after that."

Edaline chuckled and kissed her forehead. "I trust you two. Just couldn't resist seeing your reaction." Her smile was slightly evil. "Although, word for the wise, you might want to get up before your dad does."

[agvarina]

Do they find Kung Lao?

Lao looked around The dungeon he was trapped in, finding it all grose and eery The way there was just bodies left to Rot.

His thought of escape were interupted by The sound of someone walking around, he held his breath as he waited The right moment. He needed awnsers and he was going to get them.

As soon as The hooded stranger was close enough, Lao snapped his legs around The mans neck and held him in a choke hold.

He demanded to know were he was, who The man is and were is his son.

The man quickly chocked out awnsers.

They were in a dungeon owned by someone named Shang Tsung, his name is Syzoth and hes a slave and The men only brought Lao in.

Syzoth swore on his Life that he dosent know why Lao was brought there or what they want with him.

Lao not senssing a lie let The man go and asked If he could let him go.

Syzoth explaining that he cant for his own wife and son are held captive, and If he dosent do as hes told they are going to Be killed.

Them both understood each others pain and reasoning, so Lao sudgested that they could Make it look like he managed to break out on his own so that syzoth wouldn't get The blame. Explaining that he'd sent help for syzoth and his family once he was Back with his friends.

Hesitantly Syzoth agreed to this plan and opened Laos chains, letting him down.

It was then Shang Tsung arrived and seeing that his "slave" had betrayed him decided that he had no use for him anymore, revealing The horrid fate his family had already suffered.

Things changed fast after that. While they didn't get The awnsers to why Lao was taken, they did manage to escape The dungeon by beating Shang Tsung badly enough that he Ran away.

As night came The two made a camp in The Forest were Lao let Syzoth cry on his shoulder, mourning his beloved wife and child.

[mywrittingprompts]

Fan fic below written by me.

Buddie - Someone who loves you wouldn't do this

Eddie laid on his stomach in his bed, awoken by the annoying sound of his phone ringing. First, he checked the time: 2:16, then he checked the caller ID: Buck.

He huffed out a sigh, not of frustration but more of an 'of course moment'

He awnsered assuming Buck was out partying or something since they were off the next day.

"Buck, if you butt dialed me again I swear to-" he immediately paused when he could hear Buck sniffling and breathing heavy on the other end of the line.

"Buck, are you okay?" Nothing.

He raised up, propping himself up on his elbow, "Buck?" Nothing but a harsh, shakey breath. "Evan?" He said harsher this time.

"I- I don't-" Buck started, and he had definitely been crying, Eddie notes.

"Buck what going on, are you hurt?"

The fact that Buck doesn't awnser that question gives him chills.

"Okay, Chris is at a sleepover tonight, I'll be there in like 10 minutes and we'll-"

"No!" Buck all but shouted.

"No, no, I'll just- can I come to you?" Buck asked his voice was still low and horse but getting him to talk was progress.

"Buck I really don't think you should be driving, I could come pick you u-"

"Please" it was a plea and how could Eddie say no to a possibility hurt Buck on the verge of crying.

"Okay" he agreed. "Okay just stay on the phone with me please so I know you're okay."

It was pretty dead silent except for Eddie asking him if he was still there every 2 minutes if not sooner.

Eddie was standing outside waiting until the call disconnected, which sent panic through him until he saw Buck pulling up immediately after. He let out a sigh of relief as he walked to Buck's door.

He wasn't sure what he was expecting but it surely wasn't this.

Buck opened the car door and looked up at Eddie with teary eyes. He had a busted lip, bruises forming on his face, a black eye, and dried blood and tears on his face.

Before Eddie could even think Buck was out of the driver's seat and in his arms. Buck was gripping him like a life line, Eddie wanted to just stand there and hold him forever, try to put his broken best friend back together but he needed to know how badly he was hurt.

"Hey, hey, Buck look at me" he tried, pushing lightly at Buck's shoulders. When it didn't work he tired something else,

"Buck, what happened?" But Buck's response made Eddie's blood run cold.

"HE happened" he said through the sobs.

Eddie's jaw clenched immediately. Now it made sense why he didn't want Eddie to come to him.

Finally he was able to lightly push at Bucks shoulders, he held them as he gave Buck a once over, staring at his face for a little longer, Buck wouldn't even make eye contact.

"Where I he?" Eddie asked with his jaw still clenched.

"Eddie don't" Buck said finally calming down some and looking up from the ground and at Eddie.

"Don't what? Drive over there and beat his face into the pavement?" It came out louder then he intended and Buck flinching slightly made him even madder.

Not at Buck of course, never at Buck.

"Is he still there?" Eddie asked, calmer then before.

"No" Buck said sounding annoyed, but speaking through tears non the less "he left, that's- that's why I called."

Eddie just nodded, he'll deal with that later, for now he needs to focus on Buck, who was currently standing in front of him shaking.

"Alright, come on let's get you inside and get you cleaned up" he reached out his hand and lightly put it on Bucks lower back to guide him inside.

Once inside with the door shut, he guided him to the bathroom and to sit on the toilet seat and got to work, there wasn't much blood flowing anymore so it didn't take long. He was overly gentle and he could tell Buck appreciated that.

Buck just sat there with his eyes closed, sniffling every so often trying to keep the tears at bay, he looked so small it broke Eddie's heart.

"Alright" Eddie said lightly wiping one last time at Bucks law with his thumb and the cloth, water dripping.

"I think you're all done" he used his best doctor tone like he'd use on Chris when he scraped his knee.

Buck whispered a "thanks" as Eddie put everything away and sat back down on the tub infront of Buck.

"Buck-" Eddie started, getting Buck to look up from where he stared at his hands in his lap. He immediately broke eye contact with Eddie again before speaking.

"I dont even really know what happened" Buck said, voice strained like he was about to cry.

"I mean- we-we were just having a normal argument and the next thing I know he's hitting me" Buck sounded so genuinely hurt and embarrassed it hurt Eddie.

Eddie leaned forward and slowly put his hand on Buck's knee.

"Buck, if you need to talk about this in detail, you know I'm here to listen" Eddie said as Buck nodded in agreement.

"That being said I'm gonna need a few beers in my system first or I'm gonna go do something I regret" Eddie said, and that, that made Buck chuckle and that made it worth it.

Buck took a deep breath beforespeaking "like I said I can't really remember it anyway, I mean- I knew he was stressed from work but I never thought-" Bucks voice broke at the end of that sentence.

"I should have just left him alone" it was barely above a whisper but Eddie was close enough to hear.

"Hey, no- this is not yout fault, Buck, you know that" Eddie said.

"I know that I shouldn't have let this happen, I just- I couldn't hit him back." Buck said with tears threating to spill.

"Yeah because YOU have morals!" Eddie sighed and waited a second to speak, not wanting to sound angry.

"Buck, anything that happened before doesn't matter. There's no reason, in the world that makes this- " he gestures at Bucks face "- Okay. Ever." He squeezed where his hand was still on Bucks knee.

"I mean this isn't even a he hit you scenario, Buck, he beat the shit out of you. Someone who loves you- Someone who is a decent person- would never do that."

He wasn't trying to sound angry, just firm enough that Buck understood how serious this all was, he didn't want Buck going back to him just because Buck didn't feel like he deserved better.

"You did not deserve this, Evan" Eddie was making eye contact with Buck and watched the exact moment it all hit him, within seconds he was leaning forward sobbing into Eddie's chest and gripping his shirt like a life line again.

Eddie sat there just rubbing his back and telling how quietly it was gonna be okay, the same way they had done for each other many times. There was honestly no embarrassment in them breaking down in front of each other anymore.

He sat there until he left Buck relaxing a little too much, he knew after the adrenaline died out he'd be exhausted and he didn't need him sleeping in the bathroom.

"Hey, Buck-" he felt Buck stiffen back up.

"Come on let's get you to bed" Buck nodded and let Eddie help him stand. Bucks eye lids looked so heavy even though he was awake he looked half asleep. He walked him right pasted the couch towards his bedroom.

Buck whispered a "wha-?" Before Eddie shushed him "You're too sore to be sleeping on the couch, besides I can keep a closer eye on you this way"

Oh, OH, so they were BOTH gonna be sleeping in Eddie's bed? Buck thought.

It must have been clear what he was thinking because about the time Eddie sat Buck on the bed he said

"or you know, I could take the couch if you're more comfortable in here by yourself" Buck wanted to cry more bow with how sweet Eddie was.

"No, no, it's- I don't really wanna be alone- that's why I called" Buck said, sounding only slightly ashamed. "You always pick up" the last part was just a whisper but Eddie was really close to Bucks face as he looked up from helping him take his shoes off and they sat there for just a little too long.

"So um- is there- uh- is there anything else you need?" Eddie asked while he stood up

"No, no I think I'm okay. My uh- my side kinda hurts" Buck said while rubbing his rib slightly.

"Lemme see" Eddie said reaching to help lift up his shirt, sure enough there was a nice bruise forming there. As much as it made Eddie's blood boil. He stayed calm.

"It's not too bad but it's definitely there" Eddie said, assessing. "I'll go get you some ibuprofen"

He wasn't gone long before returning with ibuprofen and water and Buck gladly accepted before laying down completely.

Eddie laid beside him, they laid in silence until Buck dosed off, Eddie just laid there thinking, until a noise outside made Buck jump awake.

"What was that?" Buck asked, breathing heavy. The fear on his face broke Eddie's heart.

"I don't know" he started but quickly added

"Hey I'm sure it's nothing, but I'll go check." he said on the most gentle voice he has. He went to go check it out, It was in fact nothing, probably a neighbor doing something stupid like always.

But when he got back he found Buck sitting up in bed with his knees to his chest, definitely hyperventilating.

He rushed over and sat on the bed in front of him, one leg still touching the floor.

Looking back he probably should have asked what he needed, asked if he could touch him, I mean Buck was very triggered after all, but he knew Buck felt safe with him, and he was so greatful for that, and his dad instincts kicked in seeing Buck so fragile so he just grabbed Bucks shoulders and pulled him into a hug.

He just held him and told him everything was okay in hopes that was true. This isn't something you just get over.

It must have worked though because after about 10 minutes Bucks breathing had evened out and he was starting to relax.

"There you go" Eddie didn't even know what he was saying anymore, part if him hoped they wouldn't remember in the morning being so tired and all but Buck deserved the most gentle side of Eddie.

"Tha-thank you." Buck said after he pulled away, "I'm- I'm so sorry"

"Hey no don't aplogize, I can't imagine how scary this all must be" Eddie said as he gave Bucks arm a squeeze.

"I just keep thinking he's gonna come find me, like with-with what happened to Maddie"

He took a deep breath trying not to imagine how scared she must have felt

"I know it's not the same I just- I didn't ever see him hurting me like that and now I just see him so....differently"

Eddie gave him a small sympathetic smile before he spoke "I promise you if he's dumb enough to come here, he'll leave in a body bag" that earned a small chuckle out of Buck, but he knew it was true. Eddie would do anything to protect Buck, even that.

"And I have locks on all the doors and windows, I promise he's not getting in here, or to you ever again."

His hand had made its way from Bucks arm to his hand and he gave it a small squeeze.

"Okay?" Eddie wanted to make sure he fully understood he was safe.

"Okay" Buck smiled. It was small but a smile nonetheless.

"Alright, now I know you're exhausted, let's try to get some sleep, would you rather sleep on my side, away from the door?"

Eddie was being so sympathetic it made Buck want to cry more but for a different reason, and partly because he felt he didn't deserve it as much as he deserved the beating he got but that's a whole different problem to get into.

"No, no I'm good" he said, and actually meant it for once. He was sleeping in Eddie's bed, WITH Eddie, his adrenaline was wearing off and he was feeling so comfortable.

Eddie cut out the lights, all that there was was the glow of the moon shinning through the too thin curtains, Eddie sat down on the edge of the bed and removed his shoes and before climbing under the cover with Buck.

They both laid on ther back, decently far apart for all of 30 seconds before the silence was too much for Buck.

"Could we maybe have the TV on- just- just in the background, until I fall asleep?" He surprised himself a little that he was comfortable asking for anything more then Eddie was already giving him, which made him start to second guess himself when Eddie didn't awnser immediately and it was too dark to read an expression.

"Uh never-nevermind, I'm sorry that's rude to even ask i-" Buck started rambling again bur was cut off by Eddie rolling on his side to face him, propping himself up on his elbow.

"No, of course we can, Buck. That's fine. It's not gonna bother me any, matter of fact I fall asleep with the tv on a lot and I'd rather you be comfortable" Eddie smiled, it was so genuine and soft.

He rolled back over just enough to grab the remote from his bedside table and turned the tv on before handing Buck the remotes, Buck just sat them aside leaving it on some cooking show, he really just wanted the light and noise.

"Thank you Eddie, not- not just for that for everything, not Even just today but in general I- I don't know how to thank you"

There was a strange silence after that, he risked rolling on his side now that Eddie was back on his back to look at him, Eddie was smiling softly staring at the ceiling?

"Just take care of yourself Buck, and don't shut me out because you feel like a burden or something- that's all I ask." Against his better judgements, he rolled over to face Buck for the last part

"That's thank you enough" he smiled.

"And if I ever see him I swear to God-" Eddie started but Buck Stopped him woth a half chuckle "I know, I know" he laughed even though he knew it was the truth still.

Their laughs faded into a peaceful silence as they both rolled over on thier backs again.

"Goodnight, Buck, I'm- I'm glad you're here"

In my home, in this world, kinda went unsaid.

"Me too" Buck couldn't help but smile. His heart was so full. Maybe what happened today was the best pain he ever had to go through if this is where it lead him.

"Goodnight, Eds"

And to his surprise he had no trouble sleeping that night, or any night after that, because he never slept alone again

Can't I pick 5?

You want 5 wives?

Well that's not fair having me pick one when I've been 14- No-15 different people now. I can't just choose one!

Alright if you could pick 5 people to see again, who would you pick?

(He goes silent as he stares at the clouds, his mind going through all of the flings and crushes he's ever had in his entire existence. And yet the name that popped into his head was neither.)

Do they have to be romantic?

Uh…I suppose not.

Susan (Without hesitation) I miss my granddaughter… You’d like Susan..

And the other 4?

Hold on a second! I have to think! sheesh.. just like your mother.. always rushing me..

(She giggles, now waiting and waited For awhile until begining to drift off)

I know my awnser.

(He says after almost 35 minutes of thinking, causing her to jump from a dozed state)

Huh? Oh- what?

Not what. Who. 4 of them. Just like you said. Susan, Sarah Jane, River, and Rose.

But that's only 4.

I can't decide on the last one. Its A tie between so many and it seems unfair to pick just one.. but I guess if I had to or else the earth would explode or something terrible… (A deep sigh) I want to see Patience again..at least.. tell her I haven't forgotten about her- After everything….Wait, why am I telling all this to you? You're a child.

Oi! I thought I was your favorite niece!?

Oh, right. That's why…

you really loved them all didn't you?

What do you mean?

(The look on his face indicates confusion as if wondering why he would have ever stopped in the first place)

You want to see your first wife after all these years. You must have really loved her.

Pssh! I better of! We had 13 kids together!

13!??

What can I say? Your uncle's handsome.

(He licks his fingers and playfully fixes his side burns and eyebrows as she shoves him)

Ew! Gross!

(He giggles before sighing as if talking about them did him some good)

Wouldn't mind seeing Jamie again either but ah well. Not changing my awnsers now... Speaking of which, Hypothetically-

Oh here we go.

You started it- Are they coming here or am I going there? Because I would love to see all of my kids again… But if that's the case I'm going to need you to make an exception and let me see 6 people then.

Forget another wife?

Nah... My daughter Jenny.

Well, there's Scarlette

Who's Scarlett??

Ill tell you when you're older

(He was not about to tell a 15 year old girl about the time he married a sex worker. Not that he was ashamed. He just thought it might be a bit inappropriate to try to explain the whole thing. He didn't want to be that kind of uncle.)

Couldn't you go see her and her mum at the same time?

Wellllll…. her mum is technically machine - or is it still me?

(He ponders for a bit as if this question put him into a spiral of questions)

What?

And im her dad.. ssooo… Yeeeaah.. It's complicated.

You have 14 children…And you never get to see any of them again?

(He stares off into the distance for a while)

…How old are you again?

15. Almost 16. Why?

Right. So you're a big girl then… They're dead, Rose.

(She frowns) All of them?

(He nods,) All of them... as far as i'm aware anyway… I Held held in my arms while she died.. I only knew her 16 hours.. Oh my Jenny.. Im so sorry... your mother named her, you know. Technically, her name is Jane, but she liked Jenny better.

(Rose decided not to push any further, deciding it was for the best, assuming a case of SIDS took his daughter from him. Trying to explain her to anyone was a challenge. Somewhere, in his chest he felt a tiny pang.. Oh Jenny… He hoped he was wrong about her. He hoped she was out somewhere doing good… he'd be proud.)

Just watched ep 64 of pokemon horizons!

Can you write something with spinel having a s/o who's just an absolute sweetheart? Like the complete opposite of him, being really gentle and loving with kinda motherly vibes, so like everyone wonders how the two even got together

Have a nice day

Spinel x Sweetheart!Reader | drabble

Summary - Spinel gets home after the events of E64 to see you waiting for him,

The sound of a door being unlocked paired with a weight leaving your lap made you look towards the now-open door where a familiar teal haired man stands with his trusty Umbreon.

Pushing yourself, alongside any sleep still in your system, off the couch you walk towards the man. Gently cupping his cheeks as he took off his shoes, he offers you a gentle smile as you brush the stray snowflakes off his face.

"Spinel, is everything okay love,?" You ask, to which he responds with a nod, placing a hand over one of yours before closing his eyes to soak up the affection.

Spinel loves how inoccent and naïve you are, how you've always hung around him, even when you found out about his true nature and how unstable he can be, you still stuck around.

It always baffled the other Explorers, but hey, you are dating him, and not anyone else, so he isn't complaining.

"Spinel,?" You call out to which he responds with a nod. At this point, it didn't matter what the original question was, all that matters is that you are here, with him. Safe.

"Yes dear,?" He awnsers with a chuckle as he opens his eyes to meet your gentle gaze.

--

"Is everything okay,?" Your voice is full of concern as you repeat your words, tracing your thumb along his cheekbone.

Spinel nods again before removing your hand from his cheek and holds it gently before bringing you in for a gentle kiss.

A/N: Ngl I think that I should've done HCs..... might do some HCs of Sweetheart!Reader in the future ngl becuase this is just fluff() but tbf, Spinel looks like the type of guy who'd be really nice to his partner and his partner only, (lmk if I wrote Spinel wrong though).

Chapter 16: 20 questions

Table of contents

Requested by: @bestsuspect005

~~~~~~~~(later that night)~~~~~~~~

“c-come on, you gotta know something?” Bella stuttered out from her bed. I sighed snapped my book closed and turned to her. I was setting at her desk helping her with a project, or I was supposed to. I'm actually doing most of it and being interrogated about the Cullens and now the pack.

“seriously I don't know” I said. “I just now started hanging out with Emmett” l stated. Bella looked at me confused. “What now?”

“I figured you and Emmett were dating” I shrugged sadly. I guess we kinda are but we hadn't put a label on it yet. The world wanted us to be together but we never talked about what we actually wanted.

“there's really no labe on it right now” I mumbled.

After a few debits with Bella she ended up falling asleep before she could finish a conversation with me. I sighed deciding to use the quiet to my advantage. It didn't want to move so I sat at Bella's desk with my blanket wrapped around me and worked on my Labtop as Elvis Presley softly played in my earbuds.

The window slowly opened and turned around as my heart pounded. I raised an eyebrow confused as Edward slipped in. He stopped dead in his traks and we both staired at each other for a bit.

“hi....” he said dragging out the word looking like a dear cought in the headlights.

“hi?” I repeated.

There was complet silence except for Bella's soft snoring. Edward stood there in silence fiddling with his thumbs. I smirked and tilted my head. “so... You come here often?”

He nervously chuckled and looked everywhere except me and Bella's sleeping body. I rolled my eyes with a smile as I closed my labtop.

“kinda creepy bro” I said as I left Bella's bedroom to go get some sleep.

The next morning Emmett came over before school. I cooked Bella and Owen's breakfast as he sat at the dinning room table flipping through a horror magazine I felt on the table a couple days ago. I heard a pair of feet hit the first two steps than obviously fake cough.

Owen came into the kitchen with his hand on his stomach. “sis, I don't feel good” he said planly. He didn't trying to fake groans of pain just stood there emotionless. Emmett looked at him from the table concerned.

“what's up?” I asked feeling his forehead. He shrugged and said. “I just don't feel good... Can I stay home?”

I looked at him with a questioning look. You could see the plea in his eyes. The worry as he stood before me. I cleared his throat and his fluffy hair fell over his eyes and he looked down.

“yeah, you can stay home” I mumbled hugging him. He went of stairs and I shared a concerned look with Emmett.

~~~~~~~~(.......)~~~~~~~~

“you wanna play 20 questions? I feel like we don't know much about each other expect our supernatural aspects” Emmett asked as he grabed a tree and spung around it.

We were out in the woods a couple of miles away from the school. We decided to ditch the rest of the school day plus a history field trip.

“okay, I'm an open book” I said as he grabed my hand to help me climb up a rock.

“okay...” he chuckled. “Who's your favorite singer or band? Edward Isn't the only one in the family who loves music”

I nodded as I sat down in the grass next to him. “staring off mild, huh?” he shrugged waiting for his awnser.

“Elvis presley... He's my favorite” I responded proudly trying not to go into one of my Elvis rants.

He gave me a big smile that showed his dimples. “I love Elvis... I went to the 68 comeback Special, ya know”

My eyes widened with amazement he told the story of him, Carlisle, and Damon when to see the special and how they had to keep Damon from eating Colonel Tom Parker. And aprently Rosalie dated Elvis for a bit, that was before he met Priscilla of course.

“I've never been more jealous of a group of vampires” Emmett laghed. “okay, next question”

“what's your favorite Elvis song?” he asked. I raised an eyebrow. “as much as I love talking about the King of Rock, your gonna waist question #19 on that?”

“as long as I'm learning about you and talking about you there's not waist” he responded with God's honest truth. His gold eyes held nothing but love and admiration.

“Can't help falling in love and Suspicious minds” I responded. He nodded like he was mentally taking notes.

“favorite movie?” he asked. “I'm guessing your a movie lover with you talking about film school and all”

“I love horror, but my favorite movie is either Once upon a time in Hollywood or The Shining”

Emmett nodded. “I love Quentin Tarantino's movies” I nodded. “me too, he kinda inspired the who movie direct career”

“if could go anywhere in the world where would you go?” Emmett asked.

“Memphis Tennessee” I awnsered. Emmett smirked like already knew why. “I bet you could take a wild guess why” I laughed.

“there's only one reason to go to Memphis Tennessee” Emmett laughed. “Graceland?” I nodded with a smile.

The rest of the questions would seem useless to anyone else but it was important to him. It seemed to matter that he knew my favorite book or what food I like or dislike. He acted like he was holding one to everything like it was valuable information.

“now last question” he said. I perked up waiting for it.

“will you be my Girlfriend?” he smiled softly. I looked at him shocked. I closed the gap between us and placed a loving kiss on his lips. “Yes”

He smiled and placed his hand on my cheek pulling me in for another kiss. I placed my hand on his Broad chest and gently pulled away. “my turn to ask the questions”

“okay” he asked like there was nothing that could phase him.

“what's your favorite book?” I asked.

Emmett shrugged and thought for a bit. “I don't read much but I guess I would go with The Great Gastby”

I smiled. “I love that book”

The questions remained innocent like he did with me. Like him I listened intently and held on to every word. I thought about asking but then again it might have been to personal. I only had one question left and the one I wanted to ask I was still debating on whether or not I should. Emmett could tell I was think and he tilted his head.

“what's up?”

“How long have you been a vampire Emmett?” I asked, resting my head on his shoulder. He stayed silent for a second. Thinking I over stepped I quickly raised my head in a panic. “you don't have to awnser... I'm sorry if I over stepped.”

He stopped my rambling with a gentle kiss. “calm down, it's okay” he pulled me back closer to him so my head to go back on his shoulder.

“Since 1935” he replied. I chuckled. “Wow you're old” he let out a laugh and playfully shoved me. I looked down with a more serious face. “H-how did you become one…you don't have to tell me”

“I was born in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. My family was big on hunting and me and my brothers were pretty good at it too.” Emmett sighed then looked at me. “I was stupid growing up, ran with the wrong crowed and got into gambling and drinking…it wasnt my gretest molments” he let out a scarcastic chuclke.

“One day I went on a hunt by myself for the first time… i found a bear and i wasn't quick enough to shoot it”

“The bear molled you, didn't it?” I asked softly and carefully. He looked down and laced his freezing cold fingers with mine. “Yep” he simply said.

“I was losing too much blood and was ready to die..I expected it but then Damon and Rose found me. The only way I can describe it was an Angel and Devil arguing over whether to save or ditch me.” he said as i pitchered the saniro play out in my head.

“At the time damon was really battling the urges to drink human blood that’s why he wanted to leave but in the end he help rose bring me to carlisle and changed me”  I rested my head on his shoulder and wrapped my arms around his muscular one.

He lost a lot back then, But that was an understatement. I looked down and cleared my throat thinking of the outcomes if I opened up about my parents death. It probably took a lot for him to tell me about him so it was only far.

“I-I lost my parents about 7 months ago” I started. Emmett looked at me with hurt in his eyes. He gently laced his fingers with mine as I spoke.

“I was at this slumber party thing with my marching band from my old school. Things like drinking and other stuff started happening and I got scared so I called my parents.”

“it was also raining really bad and they both got out in the middle of the night to come and get me. I think part of them were convinced that I was part of all the drinking so we started to argue” I felt the tears prick my eyes as felt the guilt flood me.

“We slid off a bridge and me and Owen were the only survivors” I rest my head on his shoulder a cried softly. “I blame myself and it so hard sometimes”

Emmett placed his ice cold hand on my chin and lifted it up gently. “it's not your fault no one blames you” he said softly. I looked into his gold eyes thank full I had him in my life.

“as long as your with me you'll never get hurt” he said truthfully.

“you promise?” I asked. He smiled and nodded. “I promise... And after we graduated I promis to take you to Graceland” he said softly kissing my forehead. I softly chuckled at the last part as he smiled at me.

I made me feel safe. Since mom and dad died I felt his unnerving pain through out my body. I was lost and Emmett saved me. God what's happening to me.
