fairy fm is such a cute idea !! let's talk about woodz, an amazing artist that deserves way more recognition</3 what's your favourite song of his, or favourite album ?
take care<3
oooo i am glad you asked abt woodz!! i did listen to his music the other day and i even posted about him and i did say that i don't listen to his music that often even tho he does really good music especially rock and since it's a genre so beloved to me i find it weird how i don't listen to him more often! my fav song of his atm might be waiting... which was a song i listened to it months ago and i got obsessed rather late but it was on repeat for so long and truly idk what it is to me that it makes so addicting it might be the vocal arrangement and harmonies that he does with the adlibs that makes it so cool to me because it's right at the beginning of the song and i was like.... wait a minute... it really makes you wanna stay and listen to the rest and also that bridge is crazy to me and how it builds up to the chorus it really tickles to right part of my brain in general the vibe is very good and i would honestly recommend it to anyone that is trying to get into his music and it's especially because it's a title track i feel like it's even better! as for favorite album... i haven't listened to every album of his (that's something i'm working on) but it's definitely oo-li i heard it for the first time days ago and i was very sucked in from start to finish and i thought it was a pretty consistent album in terms of sound! i especially liked who knows and ready to fight and they are both like a rock that is on the heavier side and so i loved it! i feel like both of these songs were pretty good in your face type of rock that i don't see many kpop artists too and that i love and so those are my faves but i love drowning a lot because it's a more emotional track but i feel like he did expressed the overall emotion of the song in his vocals and i think you can really get what the song is supposed to me from that alone which i really like! in the end there are different songs but i feel like the sound was very consistent throughout the whole album which made the experience enjoyable to me as a first time listener
#one song that i would like to mention is also different#which i feel like it's such a classic i should have mention it#that was probably my first ever woodz song#and i feel like that song never aged in terms of sound#but he really is such a good artist i honestly need to listen to him more#i'll get it to it very soon eheh#thank you for this tho i feel like#ever since i listened to his music the other day i wanted to talk abt it so bad kdjfgkd#this was a good opportunity so thanks#asks#anon#fairy fm đ§đťââď¸â¨

#and all of this is true while it is ALSO true that her songs age incredibly well#even debut or random soundtrack songs or endgame#whatever song people try to put on the worst Taylor songs list NEVER QUITE BELONGS#it doesnât feel right. and to some extent occasionally in mercurial flashes I feel the same about her BEST songwriting list#I can never rank anything of hers ever because she can write better than she has written#if anything finds her own songwriting dead itâs what her future self will be able to achieve#and I think sometimes even the public can SENSE this about her and itâs part of why people are sooooo hard on her in a brutal way#and in a way they never are with other artists. who have reached the limits of their potential#Taylor has not reached the limits âthatâs the simple way of saying it#in some way she is still figuring out the artist she is going to be#and I really do think that it is going to be absolutely astonishing#because in some ways (this is going to sound crazy) she is still distracted by her success and her tour#sheâs NOT but I mean. the canon hasnât been fully set free#there are still somehow things holding her back#and weâve watched her outstrip so much of those early confines that fame and the business of the music industry strapped around her#weâve seen her say âthat doesnât apply to meâ#but actually sheâs going to and she needs to and I believe she WILL continue to move into rarefied air#my mom helped me give me the final piece of this feeling (and itâs just a deep gut intuition/brain chemical thing for me)#when she said one day almost in mild exasperation: maybe one day Taylor will grow into a Dolly Parton#and something CLICKED#in my brain. and I donât agree with my mom in terms of her non-interest in Taylor (as much as it has pained me to do so)#I think sheâs worth loving and paying attention to now#but that gap that exists between people who love her and people who donât (full time haters internet trolls do not interact)#I think itâs going to close with time as her work stretches out and out and grows and changes#like I think by the end of her career we are going to have something so astonishing#and to loop it back for a second to a previous thought. I think thatâs why sometimes a taylor song can sound disjointed to me. because it#will hit the Depths of the Depth for a second. it will transcend and then it will go back to merely being an excellent pop song#those flashes are everywhere in her work but I think she is going to work and hone them into being conductors of light in a more steady way#the older she gets. does this sound INSANE. idk sometimes I think it does and then sometimes I think it DOESNt. so who knows. but yeah#itâs hard to say because I know it will read as more critical of Taylor than I mean it to be. when really I mean it with so much awe

Could you write for Daemon targaryen like currently after all those nightmares in harnehal he finds a prisoner of harnehal as the only person who brings him peace him falling in love with her and trying to be better person he still fights for team black obviously rahaenya is definitely not happy with these arrangements especially seeing him all dedicated all in love some things he never have done for her but she have no option currently rather accepting his second wife though at the end when team black would be winning and fight at harnehal like aemond Vs Daemon she ask for reader's head happy ending at the end please or anything you wanna write I just wanna see Daemon happy in love at end please
Finally I have time for my hobbies again! Sorry I left you waiting for ages, this term the exam season was tougher than what I have been accustomed to⌠Anyways, I have started writing some stuff and I wanted to post the intro instead of writing a full-length chapter 1 since it would have taken a couple more days (:
As a side note, I honestly have no idea where this story will be headed because I have no clear course planned, I had some little ideas and I just started writing them. Also I will be introducing stuff which is not in the asoiaf universe.
I am continuing to read Silmarillion from where I left off and letâs say the ideas about Daemonâs love interest are⌠inspired from what I have been reading (; Enjoy!
Memento Mori
| Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 |
Pairing: Daemon Targaryen x fem!reader
Warnings: strong language, I am not a native English speaker, reader is (or will be) described with long hair
This is a very short introduction! Also the chapter is from Daemonâs pov. The title is inspired by Memento Mori by Lamb of God (the song has been a great inspiration for the story so far)
The dungeons of Harrenhal were cold, wet and lonely.
He had no idea when, how and why he had gone down there â one moment, he was in his chambers and the next, he was opening his eyes to the mossy stone walls of the dark dungeons with a torch in his hand. The line between dreams and reality was becoming thinner each day he spent in this cursed castle.
As Daemon walked past the empty cells, he tried to shake off this unsettling feeling lingering around him, dancing on his neck on its tippy toes, making him wonder whether he was indeed alone.
I doubt Simon Strong keeps prisoners down here, he thought while wiping the water from his forehead which was dripping from the broken ceiling. Maybe he has decided to lock up the witch?
Just when the Rogue Prince â correction, the King Consort â was about to turn back and leave the depressing, humid and somewhat eerie atmosphere of the dungeons behind, a soft humming reached his ears.
A soft, sweet humming of a song coming from one of the cells at the very end of the darkness.
âWhat kind of prisoner is Simon Strong hiding here?â Daemon asked, his voice created echoes as he waved the torch in front of him, trying to cast some light.
The humming stopped immediately, as if the sound itself was cut by a knife.
Daemonâs purple eyes widened upon seeing that the last cell was indeed not empty.
There was a young woman inside, looking at him with her eyes full of curiosity. Her hair had an unearthly shine under the dim moonlight. She tilted her head to the side. âYou can see me?â She asked, it was the same soft voice from a moment ago, though the sweetness was no longer there to be felt.
Daemon raised an eyebrow at her direction. âDo people not see you?â
The young woman shook her head, her movements â no matter how simple they were â felt almost too harmonious. âNot normally, it is not intended that I am seen.â Stopping for a moment, she eyed Daemon from head to foot. âYou are not really here, are you?â
The raised eyebrow quickly turned into a frown. âWhat do you mean? I am standing in front of you.â
She shook her head once again. As her soft whisper filled his eyes, Daemon started falling into the nothingness, again, for the unknown-th time ever since he had come to Harrenhal.
âWake up.â
***
When he woke up, trying to catch his breath, Daemon found himself lying on his bed, as always. Anytime he had one of those weird dreams â he wasnât even sure if he should call them dreams anymore â his consciousness would find its way back to his bed.
Unless he was daydreaming, which were considerably the worse.
âWho the fuck was that weird woman?â Daemon muttered to himself as he stood up, dressing up in his regular robes. The feeling in his stomach was telling him that he had to go down there, to the dungeons, to find that woman. If he were to wait until dawn, he feared she might be gone.
What was it that she said again? It is not intended she is seen?
Leaving his chambers with a torch in his right hand, Daemon shook his head to the thoughts flowing through his mind, causing his silver hair to move. âWeird woman,â he muttered to himself as he walked through the dark corridors of the castle with haste. âShe somehow reminds me of the witch.â
The dungeons were as dark and wet as he remembered from the dream. A cold wind was wandering besides him, kissing the mossy walls and licking Daemonâs skin, sometimes whispering wicked words in his ears. Even the wind was odd here, in Harrenhal, but he had somewhat got used to it â hearing its eerie whispers whenever he walked alone during the hour of the wolf.
âShow yourself,â Daemon spoke with a strong voice which created echoes as he stood in front of that very cell from his dream. âYour king commands it!â
âHuh, king?â The same soft voice answered from the dark corner of her cell. The moonlight had left its shining spot, leaving the torch in Daemonâs hands as the only source of light in this entire corridor of the dungeons. âI answer to no king.â
A condescending scoff left Daemonâs lips as he came closer to the bars made of steel, separating him and the weird woman. âYou do live in Westros, do you not?â Daemon asked, not really waiting for an answer. âAs long as you breathe in this land, you do answer to the King.â
A chuckle came from the darkness. âI have been breathing in this land before your ancestors flew across the Narrow Sea, Daemon Targaryen.â

What's all this about Solas speaking in iambic pentameter? English isn't my first language so I never noticed anything odd about the way he talks, but your blog is the first time I've seen it mentioned by anyone
hello! ââżâ Solas sometimes speaks in a specific pattern or rhythm. It sometimes gets described as or compared by people to iambic pentameter. (which is a type of rhythm common in traditional English poetry. Shakespeare used it in his sonnets and plays.) Though, I'm not sure that it's actually literally that or always that. The main point is that at those times, he's speaking particularly poetically, with a specific poetic rhythm in his speech. (Like where the stress on syllables is and the 'beats' in his speech.) Occasionally, the Inquisitor's dialogue line[s] in response to him are the same.
When Trick Weekes wrote Solas in DA:I, they wrote some of his key scenes to KD Lang's cover of the song Hallelujah on a loop. They talked about some of their process and the reasons for the use of this technique in terms of Solas' characterization in this DA:I-era blog post:
Trick Weekes: "When Solas talks about things that he saw in the Fade, things that speak to a distant past, I needed him to sound ever so slightly otherworldly and wistful â someone remembering a dream with a sense of both sadness and inevitability. If you follow [that link] and look at some of Solasâs lines, you may notice a familiar rhythm come out. It would have been forcing it to give lines the same rhyme scheme, but giving the words the meter captured some of that wistfulness and made Solas sound ever so slightly otherworldly. (In the rare cases the player got into the same rhythm, there was always an approval bump from Solas. For that brief period, it was like the player was thinking like he did.) I used this a few times over the game, and I love what it did to his voice. Also, Cori (who edited Solas) is exceedingly kind for putting up with my request that changes to those lines keep this surreptitious rhythm."
[source]
An example of when it happens in DA:I is:
"I've journeyed deep into the Fade // in ancient ruins and battlefields // to see the dreams of lost civilizations. I've watched as hosts of spirits clash // to reenact the bloody past // in ancient wars both famous and forgotten. Every great war // has its heroes. // I'm just curious // what kind you'll be."
Compare this with the song's lyrics:
"I heard there was a secret chord // That David played, and it pleased the Lord // You don't really care for music, do ya? Well it goes like this: The fourth, the fifth // The minor fall, the major lift // The baffled king composing Hallelujah Hallelujah // Hallelujah // Hallelujah // Hallelujah"
An example from Trespasser is:
"I lay in dark and dreaming sleep [I heard there was a secret chord] while countless wars and ages passed [That David played, and it pleased the Lord] I woke still weak a year before I joined you. [You don't really care for music, do ya?]" etc.
Recent mentions of this are:
Q. Will Solas still occasionally or dramatically speak in iambic pentameter? A. âMassive kudos to Patrick, who always writes Solas so well. Again, Solas is a returning character. Itâs the same Solas you know and love (or hate depending on who you are). The same writer. So I think the answer is yeah, itâs Solas.â â John Epler
[source: BioWare dev Discord Q&A on June 14th]
User: "you really went off with solas. but the iambic pentameter makes writing fanfic dialogue for him so treacherous..." Trick Weekes: "It doesn't always have to be in the cadence! Just when he's deeply feeling The Old Days! He's written in standard prose 99% of the time!"
[source]
I think he does it a bit in the gameplay reveal video [Veil ripping scene with Varric] too. hope this helps :>

Sweet Radio Demon Alastor x Reader
As promised, here she is -
It's inspired by Living Tombstone's song Alastor's Game!
CW: Reader is a cannibal and it's a p big part of the story so mentions and details of cannibalistic intent and murder
âĄâĄâĄ
Some people just don't belong in Hell. The structure of divine judgment must be rigged, punishing any poor soul who commits sin without realizing it. Those individuals don't belong.
Then there are those who do. Those who realize there's an afterlife and instantly come to terms with their placement. That's when all the Oh, I'm definitely going to Hell for this jokes start to bite back.
It's always easier for those who choose to be sinners to adapt to Hell's settings. The job market for porn stars and actors is extensive, and protection is almost guaranteed despite the souls owed or deals made.
But, what interested you the most, you depraved sinner you, was the loveliness of Cannibal Town. Not only was it the nicest part of Pentagram City, but you felt right at home considering your appetite when you were living.
It was immense. Some kind of craving that you could never satisfy, no matter how many callers you invited into your home and how many of them never left. You got creative, playing with recipes, spices, and cooking methods, but it was never, never, enough.
Sometimes, you'd wonder how you got to this point. You were a normal enough kid, went to school, had a nuclear home life, and you were comfortable financially, the works.
You remember it feeling like a stomach ache.
A stomach ache that brought you to tears and kept you from school some days. You almost assumed it was something every child went through until you learned what subdued the pain.
Meat.
It was the solution. You ate like a carnivore at first, then the food became increasingly rare as you aged up. Until you stumbled upon some strange forums online (There's something online for everyone, I suppose). You gave in to the cryptid suggestions. You tried rodents at first, only after thorough mental and food preparation, but fuck did it do the job. It made your body shutter and your mind hazy, momentarily melting any thoughts of guilt you might still have.
As time went on, you grew hungrier. Animals weren't cutting it.. but maybe he could.
You found him online, chatted for a while over some messenger, then discovered how much of a dirtbag he truly was. That seemed to disarm you from the whole idea.
Poor thing.
Maybe if he was kind enough, he would have been spared.
You invited him over.
As you watch him approach your door, you tussle your hair, and adjust your clothes that leave little to the imagination. With a continuous, you can do this, you can do this, you're drawn to the knocking of the door.
"Damn, babe, if I knew you actually looked like this, I would've come over sooner." He props his arm on the doorframe as he speaks.
Is.. is that supposed to be a compliment?
Your eye only twitches a bit before you cover your expression with a cute giggle. Holding your hands behind your back, you lean forward.
"Not too bad yourself, big guy. How's a movie sound?"
One thing leads to another, you're seated on your couch, and his hands are immediately on you. For someone who acts so big and tough, his touch is awkward and uncomfortable. Like he doesn't know what he's doing.. probably because he doesn't know what he's doing.
The inexperience helps.
You didn't take into account how large he was. Assuming this would go as planned, you'd be set for weeks, but the actual action of getting him down still worries you.
You're barely an hour into the movie, which you can hardly remember, before his sloppy lips are on yours, which you respond to with a grimace. He doesn't seem to take into account your reactions, grunting against your very unresponsive lips.
Disgusting.
Pig.
He places a large hand on your waist, pulling you roughly to him.
Strong.
Muscular.
You need more. You need to evaluate your prey. You place your hand on his wrist, delicately running your fingers up the entirety of his forearm, tracing and digging into each vein and muscle you can find. That continues up to his chest. Before long, you find yourself straddling him, his wide hips forcing your legs apart a decent amount. Despite his build, his composure clearly shows he's nearly at your mercy. While you're running your hands along his body continuously, occasionally kissing him or letting out fake moans to his ear, you're feeling his ever-growing length pressing into your leg.
You'd be disgusted by the sensation if you weren't planning your next move internally.
You hid weapons everywhere. If you remember correctly, there should be a knife sitting in the crevice between the couchâs armrest and the side table. You just have to reach -
"Take this off." You command with a breathy voice, tugging at his t-shirt that had some unknown stain on it. You almost regret putting so much effort into your appearance.
Oh, well. You're taking notes in the back of your mind for any future endeavors.
You guide his desperate hands to pull the shirt over his head. In one movement, you drop the shirt and take the hidden knife into your hand. You hadn't realized until just now, but -
You're shaking.
You let out a deep breath. With your arms reaching over the arm of the couch, you're essentially caging him in. Nothing looks suspicious yet. Not to him, at least.
You lean in to give him one final kiss. You aren't exactly sure why. It's not doing anything for you. Maybe some sort of sympathy is crossing your mind?
⌠You'll have to work on that.
You pull away slowly, giving yourself time to examine the state he's in. His eyes are glazed over, his breath shallow.
Now.
Do it now.
You're ready. You've studied anatomy, disarmed yourself to the idea, and prepared for the worst.
You have to do it now.
You straighten your back, the knife now visible to him. He doesn't seem to notice at first until your arms are in the air, hoping to find some momentum in the stab. With your eyes still open, you find the spot where it should end this without too much pain for either party. You dive as fast as you can, but you made a fatal error.
You shut your eyes.
The moment was immediately silenced by the tension of his hand fisting the blade of the knife. He caught it. He stopped it just before it could pierce his chest, only bleeding from his palm. You both sit silently, in disbelief, perhaps.
A silent curse slips from your lips, and that seems to snap him back to this failure of a hook-up.
"You fucking psychopath!" He screeches. He stands, effectively throwing you off his lap as he does so. The action forces a small yelp out of you, and your grip on the knife is immediately taken from you. You stare up at him from the ground.
The tables seem to have turned. He's looking down at you, stumbling and struggling to find his grounding, all the while holding the knife. Despite this, despite his large build and his newfound advantage, he bolts for the door.
Was this better than him attacking you? Will he go to the police? You almost hope he's fragile enough to not admit he was attacked by a frail creature, or that he'll use this as a story to brag to his friends over, I escaped a psycho bitch last night.
You start cursing again. They become more frantic and louder as you follow him out. You watch him stumble off your patio and back to his car. You manage to find reality when a previous thought hits you.
You hid weapons everywhere.
A shotgun sits by your front door. It wasn't the most hidden, but in your defense, it was dark enough outside that it went unnoticed. And you're in a rural enough area that some wouldn't bat an eye at the sight of it.
With shaky hands, you pick it up, already loaded, and aim it at him. He's already in the driver's seat, but you're too exposed to let him just drive off at this point.
You didn't really know much about guns. But in an emergency such as this, it seemed like it would come in handy. So when you took your shot, you never considered the consequences of shooting bullets at a running car, especially with your poor aim.
You come to moments later, fire and pieces of metal surround you. You try to take in your surroundings, but your ears are ringing, and your senses are overwhelmed by the severe burns covering most of your body. You manage to find your home, still mostly intact. The car, on the other hand, is completely decimated.
In the corner of your eye, you think you can spot some resemblance of your date sprawled along the asphalt. With a heavy breath, which you consider might be your last, you let your head drop onto the pavement.
-
"My my, what a predicament you've got yourself into!"
A voice?
It echoes through your head. You can still only see the crackling of the fire surrounding you, and your ears still ring, but the voice seems clear as day. There's a bit of a static to it, but still it's clearnes startles you. You attempt to respond through the pain.
"W-Who-"
"Save your strength, my dear. I'll be quick since it seems you won't be with us much longer." The voice says. You can hear footsteps, a clear clicking of heels that echo in this ethereal space you find yourself. You struggle to lift your head, only catching a glimpse of the stranger kneeling in front of you.
"I'll clean up this little mess of yours, and we can discuss my repayment once you're in less of a.. scorched state. Deal?"
How could you consider the consequences? Or even comprehend his words while youâre like this? You aren't sure what he means, and you have no time to question. Your consciousness seems to be honing in on the burns.
You let out a horrific scream, clutching your arms, only intensifies the pain. If you could see the stranger, you'd see a disturbingly unphased smile.
"Help me - H-Help me! Please!" You beg and cry out, finally reaching out your hand to him.
"So? Do we have a deal?"
"Deal - Deal! Fuck- I-It hurts..!" You sob, biting your blood-dampened lip to prevent any more screams.
He takes your hand, gripping onto the raw skin of your burns. Your next scream comes out silently. You feel your vision blur before your body finally comes to terms with its seemingly sealed fate.
-
You shoot up from your bed, your face running with tears. They feel cool, running down your heated cheeks. You quickly wipe your face, leaving a wet smudge of makeup and sweat across your fingers.
Right.. make-up from the date.
You scan your bed, no man in sight. Itâs a relief to wake up in your bed alone. Shifting out from under the covers, you look to your hands, waving them in front of your eyes and running your hands across your own skin.
Smooth.
Maybe even softer than you remember previously.
Some sort of calming amenity seems to be sweeping over your body. With glazed eyes, you examine your body that should be severely burned, yet you feel nothing.
Still, in a state of shock, you rise and wrap yourself in your blanket before leaving your bedroom looking a mess. You roam your home, looking around with still-damp eyes. You feel like a tourist. Like none of this is yours.
Not anymore.
You find yourself standing by your front door, opening it without hesitation. It's a clear sunny day. The grass is just as green, if not greener, and there were flowers there that you don't recall ever planting.
Suddenly, your bare feet against the heated pavement sends a slight panic through you, as the more gruesome details of the previous night conjured in your mind.
That's why nothing looks right. You were sure your porch was blackened by the fire. The grass was a flame, and there was a car - and that man and the voice -
You approach where his car was parked, only to find a torn-up strip of rubber, assumingly from its tire.
"What the.." unable to even complete a thought, a familiar voice only brings up more questions.
"Ah, my apologies! I assure you it is quite out of character for me to miss a spot." You see a disturbingly tall figure come from behind, swooping down to pick up the rubber scrap. He examines it within his red talons, turning it back and forth. You stand dumbfounded, but he goes on anyway.
"So, what exactly caused your date to ..implode? Was he not to your liking? Too handsy? Too-"
...
You're too tired for this.
You rub the sleep from your eyes, turning on your heels and letting the blanket drag across the rugged pavement behind you as you head back inside. You almost expect some sort of resistance from him, a qwip on how rude it is to walk off in the middle of a conversation, but there is none. Maybe you just imagined that little interaction. Maybe there wasn't really anyone there, and you're still tired or still sleeping.
You open the door, and that same bright smile greets you from inside your own home.
That seems to wake you up.
Your wide eyes scan his face, then peek inside your home behind him. You turn back around to see where he previously was, and obviously there's no sign of his travels. You slowly turn back.
"May I speak now?" His voice is laced with a radio filter, and it hits your ears in the strangest way. The reality of the situation turns your exhaustion into apprehension, yet you nod your head anyway.
"I may have caught you in the midst of your disarray, but I must admit, I'm curious about what led to it." He steps aside and gestures for you to come inside. To your own house.
"H-He got the upper hand is all." You decide not to comment, moving inside sluggishly. As far as you know, this strange being has no idea of the sins you've committed. You quickly fib.
"He attacked me, actually."
"Oh, how devastating!" He lets out a saddened sigh, a hand over his heart with fake sympathy. "Now, was that before or after you attempted to drive a knife through his chest?"
With a defeated groan, you flop onto the couch.
"What are you? A sleep paralysis demon? A.. nightmare? Am I still asleep?" You grumble, running the possibilities out loud and not expecting a true answer. You actually hoped that it would all go away. That this voice in your head, this hallucination, is just that.
In your head.
"Ooh, I like the sound of that.. A nightmare~ has a nice ring to it wouldn't you say?" He stands in front of you, his hands folded formally behind his back.
"Now. Enough with the compliments. What truly happened, my dear?â When his voice suddenly turns sympathetic, you find yourself actually in need of someone to vent to.
âWell, since you're clearly just a nightmare - or.. something - â You sit up, take in a deep breath, and with its release, you reveal yourself.
All of you.
Every single animal you've killed to curb your pain, what seems to work and what doesn't, and the previous nights failure. You talk about the number of friends and family you've scared off throughout the years, everything.
âI.. was gonna eat.. himâŚâ You squeak out your final sentence. You've never really said it out loud before. And never in front of someone else. It made your own blood run cold. Not the thought of the act itself, but just sharing it aloud. your eyes stay fixed on your fidgeting hands in your lap when a loud cackle interrupts your anxiousness.
âMy word, arenât you just the cutest basket case? You're lucky to be dealing with a demon of similar tastes.â He hisses his final words, all with a sly smile. He sounds prideful in his admission. His words seem like they're meant to disarm you, and even though he essentially admitted to being a cannibalistic demon, it works.
âWell.. since we have sooo much in common-â Your voice drags, the notion of being similar to this demon feeling strange to mention out loud, ��-would you.. help me? With all this..?â
Expecting another laugh, maybe some more teasing, you're met with a confusing expression. His smile is still there, unmoving, but you catch the smallest twinkle in his eye. He stands and faces away. The hope of finding an outlet for your cannibalistic intent starts to dwindle.
Your misplaced disappointment is overtaken by the flickering of lights and the soft tunes of a radio nearby, one that you recognized but were sure had been broken for decades. He turns his head unnaturally, looking over his shoulder to meet you with blackened eyes.
âI would be absolutely delighted.â
-
âLucky for you, some of your late-night delivery seemed to withstand the flames!â
You follow that transatlantic accent to your kitchen, unamused by his continuous puns and casual speech. This big scary demon friend of yours presents a commically large plate, with a very familiar carcass sitting atop.
He did nothing to make it look any less disturbing than it truly was. the skin was nearly burned off, the smell was just awful, and the shirt was somehow still recognizable through it all.
You cover your mouth in response. The fact that it doesn't smell much different than some of the other carnivorous meals youâve prepared nauseates you more than the sight of the corpse itself.
âQuite a specimen, very good choice! But, you needed tips, correct?â
All you can think of to respond is a simple nod of your head.
âThen let's get started!â With a snap of his clawed fingers, a sleek black apron covers his suit.
The next few hours were grueling, but.. fun? If you're allowed to call it that. You were given multiple pointers, and sure, they were all quite helpful, but they were in excruciating detail. What certain parts of the body you should pick or avoid was one thing, but discussing what wine pairs with what organs? It's not a conversation you ever thought you'd have.
By the time the meal looks normal, all decorated with spices in a baking pan and in the oven, you instinctively go to do dishes. As you fill the sink and start bringing things over, a little creature has you nearly tripping. You look down, seeing a strange little stitched doll carrying most of the dishes to the sink. No matter how strange it looked, you respond with a curious hum, fully desensitized to it at this point.
âHuh..â is all you can say. You take any remaining dishes and follow suit, plopping it all into the water. The little doll seems to be tugging at your leg when you try to walk off. It's holding its arms up to you, letting out little murmurs that sound restrained by the stitches across its mouth. You hesitate at first, but scoop it up in your arms and place it aside the sink. And it gets to work scrubbing away.
âDamn, you're cute, and you clean? Can I keep you?â You ask it quietly, giving it a quick pat on the head. It seems to smile.
âQuite a delightful little thing, one of my better creations, I must admit.â The response from him seems to scare the poor thing straight. It immediately lowers its head and focuses on cleaning. You scoff at the interaction between the two. if his own toy is scared of him, should you be as well? âThat being said, I simply can not part with it. My apologies.â
âOh, I was kidding. Mostly.â You reply quietly. You hear the first chuckle from him that seems genuine. No ill intent, just a joyous response to your little quip. It felt kinda.. Nice.
-
âSo, Mr. Scary Demon Man-â You clear your throat before you speak. â-why are you here, exactly? did I do something to summon you? Or-â He cocks his head to the side at the title, a little twitch to his eye.
âNot at all, my dear. I simply wanted to help you in your little endeavors, from one cannibal to another, Haha!â His tone goes back to that of a salesman. Like heâs trying to convince you heâs something heâs not.
âWell.. thank you, I guess. I don't really understand why youâd want to help me without wanting something in return, though. You don't seem like-â
â-A charitable man? I suppose thatâs fair.â He doesnât give you a chance to reply. âIf youâre so desperate to return the favor, why donât we strike a deal? Just a little one. Between friends.â
You werenât stupid. His words made it clear that this was his intention from the moment he chose to save your life. You shrunk a bit.
âSure, between friends.â You let out a sigh, your somewhat chipper attitude immediately fading. He takes no time to be empathetic.
âGood! Now, you seem to have an eye for food. This meal was ideal considering your poor execution.â You canât stop your eyes from rolling. âAnd you canât get meals quite like this where Iâm from. How about you keep providing, with my assistance, and Iâll make sure itâs prepared to the best of my abilities. In exchange for all my hard and generous work, I get half the spoils! Seems far more favorable on your end, but Iâm feeling rather generous today.â
Where heâs from? You want to question it. You want to know more about him, you want to know -
âWhatâs your name?â Your sudden questioning leaves him speechless for a moment, but heâs quick to recover his charming smile. âYou never told me.â
âWell, considering you wonât need my name if you donât agree to this little game, how about I throw that in as well? You provide the living flesh, and Iâll handle the rest. And, youâll get my name.â He stands before you, a bit too close for your comfort, as he reaches his hand out to you. âCall it a deal?â
An ominous green glow surrounds the two of you. It sends some kind of wind through your clothes and hair. His hand is especially bright, and his eyes go back to that frightening black that you experienced previously.
At the end of the day, if this is what you have to do to stifle those damned pains, it doesn't seem all that bad. You extend your hand, instinctively flinching at the seemingly impending danger. But that still doesn't stop you.
âO-Okay.. Deal.â With the touch of his palm against yours, the glow flashes, forcing your body to tense and your eyes to squeeze shut. It only lasts for a moment, though. When you open your eyes, you first examine your connected hands. His hand is huge compared to yours. From this proximity, you can truly take in how unnaturally tall he is.
Attempting to tug your hand back, his grip tightens, forcing your hand to his lips for a quick kiss to your knuckles. An outdated and surprisingly intimate action leaves you a bit flustered.
âMy name is Alastor. Itâs been a pleasure, my dear~â
-
And so, your transactional deal went on, right until your demise. You used a similar tactic to bring more meals to your doorstep, finding a handful of poor saps online. You werenât exactly sure what he meant when he offered his assistance, but when the time came, a strength took over your body that you never experienced before. There were no more shaky hands or sympathy. Your aim was always true, and it was just so easy. Any impending dangers or possible retaliations were alerted to you by a subtle whisper, a voice, coming from just behind you. It was startling at first, but quickly became a comfort.
When it came to preparing the food, which Alastor said heâd handle, youâd essentially leave your victim's remains in the kitchen and would come back to a meal ready for the oven. Sometimes, youâd leave the body as is, limp on the couch, or sprawled on the floor, only when you were too exhausted to deal with the clean-up. On nights like that, youâd wake up to a completed meal the next morning. You liked to picture him going through your home, rolling up his sleeves and wearing that apron, cleaning things up, and cooking in your kitchen how he did that first night.
That being said, you didn't normally see his physical form. There was the lent strength and whispers during your hunts, but other than that, contact seemed to nearly cease. Why was that upsetting you? You cursed yourself for being too much of a romantic - for making this seem like anything more than a delusion you conjured up to make this whole action easier for you.
And that pain? That constant hunger that was never sufficed nearly went away. In fact, youâve never felt fuller.
He did return on especially rare occasions. You never complained, and you attempted to hide your excitement when you'd catch him lurking in the corner of your eye.
Sometimes, it was to cook for you again. Despite the deal being in full swing, you would ask him to show you some of the recipes. Normally, it would just appear, looking delicious and homemade as always, yet you still pestered him to show you how to prepare some things. He always acted burdened by it, but seeing him cooking felt.. Domestic. Like, when he was cooking, he was truly in his element. It made it easy to forget what he was, which you found yourself questioning less and less. It simply didn't matter anymore.
One particular visit was late into the night. He actually woke you up from the racket, which had never happened before. Stumbling out of your bed, expecting to see police raiding your home or something worse, youâre instead met with a swaying radio demon and a shattered vase. Whenever he was around, soft music would play from your busted radio, a contrasting notion to the fumbling man in front of you now.
âAlastor?â You call out, a wave of relief hitting you and bringing the baseball bat from your hands to the floor. âWhat the hell are you doing? Itâs like.. three in the morning..â The realization of the time makes the previous adrenaline seep out of you.
âHa-ha! Isnât that an interesting concept? The Devilâs Hour. Throw some religious implications, and it drives people mad! In reality, itâs just when your feeble body is at its most vulnerable.â He rambles on, spilling the drink from his bottle as he exaggerates his actions. He walks to you as he goes on, his body still swaying. âWhen your little fragile human heart reaches its lowest speed. When waking you would cause.. distress.â He goes on, his words suddenly sounding melancholic.
âYour breathing is erratic.â He adds, staring intensely at your heaving chest. âAnd you are hot to the touch-â The back of his claws trace the apple of your cheek, where even you can feel the heat radiating from your skin. Because his voice has no filter. Youâve never heard it like that before. Youâve never heard him sound so human.
His hand traces down your face to press against your chest. Heâs feeling your heart. And itâs beating erratically.
âYour heart is fast. Are you distressed?â He leans in closer, to the point where you can smell the alcohol on his breath. âDo I make you distressed?â
In a flustered panic, you push him away. His closeness, his touch, it all threw you off guard.
âN-no, Iâm just tired. You woke me up in the middle of the night, asshole.â You cross your arms over your chest, watching him laugh and struggle to find his bearings after being shoved. With a groan, you pull him by his slender arm over to the couch. He sits down with a thud, and you sit a careful distance next to him.
âThat is what is so refreshing about you, my dear.â He lets out a dreamy sigh, and you pull the whiskey from his hand before he can break anything else. âWhy - you have no idea who youâre dealing with, I could be a powerful demon overlord,â He slurs his words. âBut, to you, Iâm just your sweet radio demon~â He sings out.
Alastor leans into you, uncharacteristically tapping your nose. You swat his hand away, forcing another loud chuckle from him. He stays leaning forward, even seated beside you, he towers over you. Your wide eyes meet his.
âEven your eyes show no sign of fear. How curious.â You stay like this a little longer. His breath still reeks of expensive whiskey, but you canât seem to tear your eyes from him. Youâre terribly focused on keeping your distance, but he doesn't seem to have the same concern.
With a sly smile, he removes his coat and flips to his back, laying his head in your lap. With his long legs crossed over each other and hanging very much off the couch, youâre almost nervous to touch him. He wasnât especially touchy, only doing so when necessary; fingers brushing against fingers, a hand on the shoulder for a mere second- why can you remember each moment so vividly? Why is it so fresh in your mind?
âAlastor, what are you doing here? Why arenât you at home? or.. wherever you are when you're not here?â Thatâs still something youâve questioned. You werenât one to pester him so insistently, wery on losing the good thing you have going on.
âUnfortunately, Iâm not sure! Be careful with your alcohol, my dear! Ha-haa!â He slurs out with a grin. âI suppose.. I prefer to be here.â
âWhat? Why? If youâre some powerful overlord, donât you have somewhere better to be getting sloshed?â You scoff, keeping your eyes away from his head that was still perched comfortably in your lap. He seems to even nuzzle into your thighs a bit, and it only flushes you more. You take an unpermitted swig of his confiscated drink.
âHm! Well, I canât exactly get meat this fresh in Hell-â He taps his chin in thought to your rhetorical question that clearly went right over his head. â-besides! Itâs not nearly as nice without you.â He sounds so matter of fact, so sure of his words. You hold your breath, suddenly reliving every moment together before this.
Youâd chat and joke around in the kitchen, but youâve really learned more about him than you thought. How he sews together those strange little creatures. And he seems so proud of them, despite their clear fear of his presence. You noticed he always puts some sort of spice in the meals he cooks, and that even if it's too much, you eat it anyway. How he simply hates getting dirty despite his occupation. He rolls up his sleeves, has that dumb apron, and uses those little toys of his to keep clean.
You loved it.
Youâve done nothing but enjoy every moment with him. You donât need to know what he is to know that.
Wait, did he say Hell?
âYouâre from Hell? Thereâs a Hell??â With a more shocked exclamation than feared, you finally look down at him. Heâs too far gone, humming along to the music, he barely hears your questions. With a clearly defeated sigh, you brush his hair from his face. He winces from the action, his smile wavering but not breaking under your touch.
âAh, I wish I knew how you survive this cozy little life.â His voice is quiet and mumbled.
You.
I can live this way because of you.
He manages to finish off the bottle with one more swig - when did he take that back?
Your thoughts begin to wander, absent-mindedly twirling strands of hair through your fingers, raking your fingers down his scalp, only to startle yourself with the sensation of animalistic ears. And theyâre twitching. Whether it be your reaction or his, it seems to force a little yelp from you, so you reel your hand away.
âI didnât mean to alarm you, darling.. Could you - or.. You can.. Continue. If youâd like.â His voice had dropped that strange filter again. You feel woozy. That whiskey you had shared, maybe it was strong. Or.. it was the middle of the night, you were sure you were just tired. You spiraled to come up with any reasonable excuse other than developing feelings for a Hellbound demon. You wonder if you-
Oh, youâre definitely going to Hell.
But, could it be something to look forward to?
Your intimate thoughts cloud your mind, leaving your hand mindlessly petting a literal demon. Your fingers combed through his hair, delicately clawing up the ears and pinching the softness at the tip of each one. Despite your thorough and elaborate massage, your mind has wandered to how a relationship with a possible hallucination of a demon would work out. But that's ridiculous, isnât it?
âAlastor, can I ask you-â your words are brought to a halt and your eyes drop. A quiet hum of satisfaction, leaving a barely conscious radio demon, whoâs head still sat in your lap. With a curse under your breath you decide you're trapped.
There was absolutely no chance of escape. What, were you supposed to wake him? What if you upset a powerful overlord demon, or whatever he claimed to be? Albeit uncomfortable, you force yourself to sleep. Enjoy it while you can, who knows if it's even real?
You didn't see him for awhile after that.
-
Alastor was a poinient man. He never missed a pick up before. So when you realized the meat you've portioned off for him was still sitting in your fridge, you start to worry. You're not exactly sure why, youâve pushed any and every intimate thought from your mind.
This is purely transactional.
Even though his portion had gone untouched for a few days.. A few weeks, if you really think about it, you already had a date set with another victim.
It went on as usual. A dumb hunk of meat thinks heâs all that until youâre straddling him. You decide to stick to what you know works; a knife to the heart.
You mapped exactly where to plant it, as he fiddles with your top, and with a raised arm, you go to claim your next victim.
There was no warning.
There was supposed to be a warning.
The next thing you know, you're pinned to the floor, your wrist being gripped so tightly you have no other option than to scream and lose your grip on the knife.
Your date took no time. No hesitation.
The last thing you see is the opposing view. A stranger straddling your body with a knife held high above his head.
It seems so quiet.
And it's awful.
Where was the warning?
If anything, you should've at least heard Alastor's voice telling you how to avoid this. You always do. A slight pang of worry hits you, but it's quickly overtaken by anger.
With a final yelp that's fueled with frustration, hurt, and a broken heart, you met your demise quickly and alone.
By the time you've come to, you're surrounded by a handful of black eyed children. You immediately scramble backward, hitting your back against a brick wall. Youâd notice your surroundings if these little scavengers werent eyeing you with an innocent curioustity. You let out a hiss, holding a hand over your eye. A streak of blackened blood comes from it, your palm thoroughly stained with it.
âYou must be new~â
âYouâre very handsome!â
âHow did you die?â
A bombard of tiny voices and questions go straight over your head, a ringing in your ears forcing your mind to go hazy.
âAlright, give âem some space, kids!â A sweet voice seems to bring you back. You look down to your seated body. Your skin is a deathly gray, and your top is stained with your own blood. Itâs still red. âDonât overwhelm the poor thing, Iâm sure theyâre quite shaken!â
Your eyes then trace up the silhouette of a vintage looking entourage, then to a sharp-toothed smile. The woman stands before you, a hand held out to you.
Her eyes are just as black and her skin is just as pale as those children that now whisper and giggle to eachother nearby.
It didnât take you long to realize your misfortune.
You died.
Youâre upset sure, but you find that youâre mostly angry. None of this wouldve happened if you- if he-
âCome on, cutie! Letâs get you cleaned up.â Her considerate smile clears your mind almost immediately. You donât hesitate accepting her assistance.
-
âHe was supposed to help me. He said he would be there for me! I died because of him..!â
A strained smile and a quick nod is the only response you get to your angered rambling. The kind face that scooped you off the streets was Rosie, one of the most powerful overlords in Hell, who just so happens to own most the souls in Cannibal town.
Lucky you.
She did exactly as she said, having her fun and playing a bit of dress up with you. It wasn't exactly your style, but there were more concerning things when it came to your appearance. Your eyes were just as black as Rosieâs. As those children who have been following you around.. In fact, most residents of cannibal town had this feature.
You really are in Hell.
Right where you belong.
Right along side people who are just like you. It almost felt.. Comfortable.
You confided in her, going on and on about some jerk of a demon who broke a promise that cost you your life. How he had been helping you in fights, saved your life a number of times, taught you how to cook, showed up drunk to simply sit in your lap, then just fucking disapeared when you needed him most. Your face was turning red, from anger or the way you gushed about him, Rosie couldnât quite decipher.
What wasnât comfortable was the period clothing you were put in. But according to Rosie, itâs Perfect! What a doll!
âIs Alastor. The radio demon?â She completes your sentence with a sigh, standing to tower over you and placing a hand on your shoulder. âI hate to break it to you, hun, but no oneâs seen him in quite a while.. If iâm being entirely honest with you, heâs a dear friend of mine.â You instantly tense at her words. You just went on a rant about how shitty he was, only to find out heâs disapeared with no explanation. Maybe it was a good reason. A good enough reason to leverage your own life? You arenât sure.
âI have to find him!â You finally say, as if a lightbulb switched in your head. He seemed so unattainable all these years, but now? Youâre in his house. âMiss Rosie! Can you help me? His name-â
âI canât say he didnât wrong you, but heâs a man of his word, hun.. If heâs not holding up his promises, then he might be in some real trouble.. â You hear her voice crack, yet she doesn't let her smile drop.
Another factor to consider that Alastor might have bitten more than he can chew, yet she still sympathises with you. You nearly knock the wind out of her with your arms encircling her small waist. Your head rests just at her chest. You canât see her face, but her arms are around you almost instantly.
-
As you got settled in town, you did actually use the skills that Alastor had taught you throughout your lifetime. You understood why he made your previous deal. Demon flesh was just fine, but you really needed to spice it up to be anything special. And even then, it still couldn't compare to fresh, living, meat.
You started off just making and baking your own food. Then, when one cannibalistic child asked to try some, they told their friends, who told others.
After a while, you were cooking for half the town. You had a line every morning out of your own home. Once Rosie took notice, it was time for you to make a deal.
âWhy canât I sign a contract with you? Youâve done so much for me, I trust you with my soul.â You had taken Rosie out for dinner, where you planned to discuss a potential deal. Even with you barely being in Hell for a year, you heard plenty about Extermination Day, contracts, dealing in souls, all of it. You did your research. You talked to some of the townsfolks and saw no real downside in giving your soul away. Your proposal seems to surprise her, though.
âYou still have your soul? Didnât you make a deal with Alastor?â She asks, quieting her voice when she says his name, as if just the sound of it would make you upset. It only makes your eye twitch, though, just at the thought of the whole ordeal.
âI did, but he didn't say anything about my soul.. Was he.. Supposed to take it?â You question.
âWell.. heâs made deals like that before, favors for favors, right?â You nod. âBut to go all the way to Earth just for some food? Thatâs.. Not like himâŚâ Rosie seems to be lost in thought, trying to piece together his intentions. You clear your throat, and attempt to calmly bring her back. You slide a tupperware container of lady fingers you had made just before this.
âI want a restaurant, Rosie. Iâve been keeping an eye on that abandoned shop in the town square. I can feed everyone in town if youâll let me. And.. protection, of course. Would that work?â
She opens the box with a sparkle in her black eyes, almost immediately popping one of the delicate treats to her lips. With a hum of satisfaction and a snap of her fingers, the glowing golden paper floats in front of your eyes.
âItâs a deal, darling!â
-
You could barely call it a restaurant at first, but you were elated. Rosie granted you some extra hands to make deliveries and assist in the kitchen. Everything seemed to be going your way. Your first extermination day went by quickly. For some reason, angels werenât destroying everything in town. And you and your little shop were both safe, untouched, really.
You had a steady job, loving customers, and a residency near the center of town. You were almost surprised how having a shared interest, in eating human flesh, can bring people together. And after just a few years, you had a community.
You had a family.
Something you never really though youâd have, in life or death; A home.
Things were going so well. This was supposed to be your happy ending. It had been a few years since you had signed the contract, and you still feel satisfied with your decision. You could really be yourself here.
In Cannibal Town.
In Hell.
It made you laugh sometimes, how much joy the underworld brought you.
On a say that seemed like any other, you had sold out your stock for the day early, and went on to send the rest of yout employees home, when you heard a ruckus near the gazebo.
The screech of a microphone, and a very distant agitated Susan, is all you can truly hear from where you are. You drop everything to join the crowd.
It was the princess of Hell.. You werenât one to keep up with politics or media, there was no need for you. You entertained yourself plenty just by residing in town. But, you managed to hear her blow up before being dragged away. A tall, rugged figure takes their place, ready to entertain the crowd while the Princess gathered herself.
âCome one, come all! While our little princess is collecting herself, who would appreciate a quick song, hm?â
âThere is no fucking way..â You mutter to no one but yourself.
Alastor.
He holds his hand up to his ear, waiting patiently for the adoring crowd to praise his presence before he went on. You knew Rosie was a friend of his, he was a cannibal afterall, but for the entire town to love him just as much? Including Susan?
Itâs absurd.
He went on to perform some showtune, one that sounded familiar to you. The crowd excitedly surrounds the pavilion, dragging you nearly to the front. You held a look of disgust. A look of betrayal.
You didnt want to see him, you told yourself. Things were perfect as is, you felt no need to repair a relationship with your imaginary friend you conjured up while alive.
Although, you never thought you had to. He had been gone for years, he nearly became just a passing thought.
An unreasonable part of you stayed put. A part of you wants him to see you and recognize you, to remember what he had forgotten. You stood with your arms crossed, your heart beating rapidly just at the sight of him.
He looks entirely the same, completely unphased. Youâve changed so much visually, and youâre happier now. Bolder. Youâre not shying down now.
He catches your eyes.
The music screeches to a halt, sounding like a record player needle dragging across the disc. Youâre holding back a smile, almost proud that you were able to stop him in his tracks. This had to be the first time heâs thought of you in over seven years.
And stops singing.
Lucky for him, the princess is finally ready to make her own point. You stick around, not exactly paying attention to her lyrics. You keep your face of disdain strong, stepping away and flinching at any advance Alastor would make to reel in the crowd. He seems to distract himself just fine until Charlie whisks away the crowd. Again, you're firmly planted in your spot.
Alastor turns to you, much more apparent of who heâs dealing with now that you stand alone from the crowd. His ears are flat against his head, and his smile is turned at the corners. His eyes seem to dart back and forth as if heâs deciding whether or not to stay. To be with you.
Oh, heâs nervous.
Youâve never seen him nervous before. It feels good. Youâre making the almighty Radio Demon nervous. You smile just slightly. But not a smile between old friends, but a smile in response to his realization that he fucked up.
Despite your delay, Alastor continues on with the rest of the parade. Your body immediately lost all tension once he leaves.
-
âWell, well! I knew I recognized that menu. I was ready to tear apart some poor sinner for using my recipes.â A familiar, antagonizing voice echoes throughout your little empty shop.
You turn on your heels, almost startled by the sudden intrusion.
Almost.
But, you'd be lying if you said you weren't hoping for it.
Just a little.
Of course, he'd come back. Maybe to make another lowly deal. Or to get you to do more menial tasks for him, to flaunt his power and authority.
âYeah, well.. when you've been left for dead, and all you have is your skills, you do what you have to, to survive.â You snap, turning your back to him to continue wiping off an already spotless counter. âPlus, it never hurts to marginalize.â
âI've actually tried some of your food here.. Hm! And I hadn't the slightest idea who prepared such a meal. You've gotten better, I'll give you that! Such a small world.â He says with a nostalgic sigh. You can hear his heels clicking throughout the empty store, circling the room before eventually approaching you.
How can he speak to you like you were still.. aquitanced?
âI hope whatever kept you busy these seven years was worth my life.â You mutter. You weren't sure if you wanted him to hear that or not. Maybe if he did, he'd finally apologize or-
âOh, it was! A nice little sabbatical is exactly what I needed.â You quickly turn to see him polishing his claws against his coat and smiling quite brightly. âI will say it is a pleasure to be meeting you here! I'm glad you settled in so easily.â
âYou killed me, Alastor! You were supposed to keep me safe.. and now I'm dead! Because you disappeared without a word!â You start to scold him, finally hitting a breaking point. All he does is scoff at you.
âOh please, I didn't even take your soul. And it's not like you'd end up anywhere else if you were to perish later on.â He speaks so casually about it all.
But, you were ready to cry. To kick and scream at his arrogance.
The feeling of sharp fingers engulfing your shoulders leaves you suddenly tense and puts your murderous thoughts on hold. He's vanished from in front of you and now looms over you, his eyes meeting yours from over your shoulder.
âPlus, you seem to be quite happy here! Why don't we just call it even then, hm?â
He can not be serious.
You pull away from him, the tears welling in your eyes finally letting loose.
âAlastor, stop!â You yelp, turning to face him. âThatâs.. so unfair! You broke a promise! And you-â you hold your finger out to scold him even more, but you feel your body simply going slack. â-you hurt me.. I just.. thought that after all that time, after that night, you'd care a little more..â You look up to him, in the hopes of being met with some sort of sympathy. But his unnatural smile goes unwavering. You rub your arm awkwardly, losing your confidence as your words turn more vulnerable without your realizing.
âOh, I can feel your pain, not to worry dear. I truly meant no harm when I couldn't hold up my end of the deal.â He's smiling and drawing out his words, only setting off a sense of unease within you. You finally let out a shaky sigh.
âWith everything you've done for me.. I thought that.. you might've liked being around meâŚâ You let out, your voice running slightly ragged from the previous shouts. âI thought we were having a good time! Then after all this?â You grow an uncertain smile.
A previous sight that made you giddy before only brings you dread now. His ears are flat, his eyes struggle to meet yours. He's losing his composure.
âI wouldn't be surprised if you wanted it to happen.â You laugh through your words, your hands raking through your hair in a stressed manner. In your little pits of passion, you don't get the chance to see his wavering smile, the grimace on his face, any of it. When your words are met with silence, though, that's when you finally look up to him.
He's nervous, again.
âOh.. my-â your sentence barely starts before he attempts to cover his slip up.
âNow let's calm down, I really didn't mean for- I didn't intend-â
âIsnât there rules to this? Were you ever allowed to meddle with my life in the first place - let alone - be on Earth??â
â-God! You killed me on purpose?? Just so I could come down here to do your bitch work?â You snap, your laugh becomes delirious and your tears betray the anger you're meant to be showing.
Heâs scrambling for a witty reply, his expression finally showing his true intentions for the first time in a long while. Heâs speechless.
âIâm such an idiot.. Of course, you never cared. Bastard.â You mumble your words to the room, losing any fear of him hearing your insults.
Your vulnerability sends a strange shiver down his spine. One heâs never felt before, one that makes his chest ache and his muscles tense.
âWell - Now, let's just talk for a moment before you-â Alastor extends his hand out to your turned back, but it never reaches you. A delicate grip takes his wrist, bringing him to a full stop. He stops, unnaturally snapping his neck to see who would dare disrupt the Radio Demon himself.
His ears flatten against his head, and with a sudden disbelief in what heâs seeing, his eyes return to their normal crimson.

Hi! Just want to say I love your blog and this the first time Iâve ever asked regarding a prompt. Stairway to Heaven is my favorite Led Zeppelin song (if itâs too long, I have a back up song) and my marvel character would be Loki. Thank you, this is such a cool idea!!
The Road You're On
This one-shot is part of JJâs Mixtape - a mini series based on my followersâ favourite songs and characters. You can read more of them here!
Song Prompt: Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin
Pairing: Loki x female reader
Word Count: ~3400
CW: swearing, innuendo/sexual jokes, discussions about sex, mentions of death, alcohol
Minors DNI: this work does not contain smut, but contains a romantic/sexual relationship between the reader and an adult-aged character. I am not comfortable with engagement from anyone under the age of 18. Thank you for your understanding and respect.
Note: Hi @princessdragon23 ~ thank you very much for sending this song in, and for your lovely message. It's hard for me to describe the way this song made me feel, except to say that this story truly unfolded before my eyes as I listened to it on repeat. I hope you like it x
The streets of the coastal town were eerily quiet as you made your way home, the damp cobblestones glistening under the dim light of the street lamps. The weight of the night clung to your skin, mingling with the faint scent of salt and smoke from the bar where youâd just finished your shift. Your boots scuffed along the uneven ground, a rhythmic reminder that you were still here, still alive, still kicking despite everything.
You hated this walk. Too quiet. Too empty. Too much room for your mind to claw at the past.
A group of locals had been arguing about something at the bar tonight - a football match or politics, you hadnât cared enough to listen. But their raised voices had sent a pang through your chest, reminding you of the way the Avengers used to argue over mission strategies. It was stupid, really. You'd never been perfect, but youâd convinced yourself you were unbreakable. Found family, or whatever bullshit term people threw around these days.
Until it all fell apart.
Your jaw tightened, and you shook the thought off. No sense picking at old wounds when they were still festering. Instead, you focused on the here and now, the comforting weight of the dagger tucked up your sleeve, the streetlightsâ flickering glow, the faint hum of distant waves.
And then you felt it.
A prickle of awareness shot down your spine, and you slowed your steps. Someone was behind you.
You didnât stop, didnât look back right away. You kept walking, casually adjusting your sleeve so the blade was easier to draw. Your senses honed in on the sound - soft, deliberate footsteps matching yours at a careful distance.
Not a drunk. Not a thief. Someone who knew what they were doing.
When you reached the corner of a dark alleyway, you pivoted sharply, hand twitching toward your weapon.
âAlright, asshole,â you growled. âIf youâre looking for trouble, youâve fucking found it-â
The words died on your lips as a figure emerged from the shadows, moving with a fluid grace that was both menacing and magnetic. The streetlamp cast a halo of pale light over him, illuminating the sharp cut of his cheekbones, the curve of his smirking mouth.
âLoki.â
You said his name like a curse, but the breath hitching in your throat betrayed you. Heâd always had that effect - chaos wrapped in charm, danger dressed up as desire. And here he was, standing in the middle of your carefully constructed exile, looking as smug as ever.
Your heart slammed against your ribs, not in fear, but in something far more dangerous.
He stepped closer, his black coat sweeping around his legs, the faint scent of leather and ozone curling in the air between you. âImagine my disappointment,â he said, âreturning to this wretched realm only to find its so-called heroes scattered like ashes. It seems I missed quite the spectacle.â
His words hit their mark, as they always did, but you refused to flinch. âYouâre late to the party,â you bit out, your voice laced with venom. âIt all went to hell months ago.â
âAnd yet, here you are,â he said, his gaze sweeping over you, slow and assessing. âPlaying bartender. Hiding in plain sight. How... quaint.â
You scoffed, though your pulse betrayed you, quickening under his scrutiny. âCut the bullshit, Loki. How the hell did you find me?â
He smiled - a sharp, wolfish thing that sent a shiver down your spine. âDo you really think thereâs a corner of this universe where you could hide from me?â
The weight of his words sank deep, pulling at something you werenât ready to face. You clenched your fists, feeling the cold press of the blade against your wrist. âWhy are you here?â
âFor you.â
The words were simple, but the way he said them - low and deliberate, with just the faintest trace of vulnerability - made your stomach twist.
âDonât,â you said, taking a step back. The cool night air suddenly felt too thick, too heavy. âDonât come here and start with that shit. Iâm not in the mood for games.â
âNeither am I,â he said, stepping forward, closing the distance youâd tried to create. âBut you, my darling, are nothing short of a temptation. One I couldnât resist.â
Your breath hitched, heat flaring in your chest and spreading like wildfire. His gaze pinned you, dark and electric, his presence filling the empty street until it felt like there wasnât enough air to breathe.
âNo. You're carrying yourself differently,â you said, desperate to shift the focus, to wrest some control back from him. âSomething happened.â
His smirk faltered, just for a fraction of a second.
"What happened, Loki?"
His eyes flicked away, then back to yours, and for the first time, you saw it - the crack in his armour, the weight pressing on him. Whatever had brought him here, it wasnât just you.
You glanced around, your gaze darting to the shadowed streets around you. Too exposed. Too vulnerable. "Fuck," you grunted under your breath, passing a hand down your face. âCome on,â you said, nodding toward the alley that led to your apartment. âWe can talk at my place.â
âAn invitation?â he asked, tilting his head, the smirk returning, though it didnât quite reach his eyes. âHow scandalous.â
You gave him only a severe and warning look in return. One that dared him to hide the truth from you. One that dared him to try and deflect from whatever horrific news he'd come to deliver by rekindling some old flirtatious banter.
Whatever storm heâd brought with him, it was about to collide with the chaos youâd been holding at bay.
Your apartment was a sanctuary you hadnât realised you needed until it became yours - a quiet haven tucked into the upper floor of a modest building overlooking the Spanish coast. It was small, cozy, and uncomplicated. The exact opposite of Stark Tower.
It was everything youâd craved since your life had gone to hell. No mission briefings, no JARVIS, no one barking orders at you. Just you, the sound of waves crashing in the distance, and the occasional hum of the town below.
You hung your jacket on the hook near the door, left in nothing but a tank top and your worn jeans, both smelling faintly of the beer you'd been pulling all night.
The apartment was small enough that you could feel Loki's presence fill it the moment he stepped inside, bringing with him that same palpable energy he carried everywhere.
It was stupid, inviting him here. Bringing a piece of your old life into a place you'd so carefully curated to banish all thoughts of what you used to be. And who you used to trust.
You didnât look back at him as you moved to the kitchen, flicking on the warm overhead light and reaching for the bottle of liquor you kept on the counter.
You grabbed the bottle of gin without turning around. âIf youâre going to bust your way back into my life, at least make yourself useful. Limeâs in the fridge.â
Loki chuckled, the sound low and dark, vibrating through you like a physical thing, as he walked past and retrieved the lime. He came up beside you, setting it on the counter. âIt's fascinating, this domesticated version of you. But it's almost... disappointing.â
âOh, you're disappointed?" You sliced the knife into the lime, then looked up at him with something equally as sharp, refusing to back down even as he loomed closer. "Must be rough, dragging your sorry ass across the universe just to insult me in my own fucking kitchen.â
His grin only deepened, eyes glittering with something sharp and dangerous. âYouâve always had such a filthy little mouth. Has no one here put it to good use?â
The air between you snapped taut, his words hanging there like a dare. Heat flushed through you, but you wouldnât let him see how much he got to you.
Youâd always stuck to your guns of never mixing business with pleasure; anyone remotely related to work was off-limits. Loki knew this - your infuriating little rule as he called it - and found much entertainment in tempting you to break it. You, in turn, had found a great thrill in the game. The flirting, the teasing, the desire. A welcome distraction from the heaviness of the work.
âMaybe,â you said, raising your glass to your lips and taking a slow sip, testing it. âWouldnât you like to know?â
Loki laughed, a rich, dark sound that made your stomach tighten. âDarling,â he said, leaning against the counter beside you, his voice dropping to a murmur. âYouâre a terrible liar.â
Instead, you turned back to your drink components and muttered, âItâs hard to trust strangers when you know what humanityâs capable of.â
"Humanity... or your former comrades?"
You didn't turn to glare at him again, but the weight of his words lingered. What you said hadnât been a total lie - not really. You didnât trust anyone enough to let them close, and the few who had tried didnât come anywhere near the bar Loki had set just by existing. But you werenât about to admit that to him.
You pulled a glass down from the cabinet, and began mixing another drink.
You didn't need to respond about your former comrades. He could see the answer in the half-empty bottles littering the windowsill. In the way that everything about this place - about your new life - was the exact opposite of the one you used to lead.
By the time he leaned against the counter beside you, you could feel the heat of his gaze, and you handed him a drink without making eye contact, focussing on replacing the bottles as he sipped.
He hummed slightly as he pulled back, the faintest sound of approval in the voicing.
âImpressive,â he admitted.
You smirked and picked up your own drink. âKilling isnât the only thing Iâm good at.â
Before he could respond, you hopped up onto the counter beside him, letting your leg rest casually against his. The contact sent a flicker of heat up your spine, but you masked it with another sip of your drink, watching him over the rim of the glass.
âWe couldâve used you here, you know,â you said, your tone quiet but pointed. â... I couldâve used you.â
Lokiâs jaw tightened, his smirk fading as he looked away briefly. âAsgard needed us,â he said after a moment, his voice lower now. âI always intended to return.â
You raised an eyebrow, tilting your head as you brought your glass to your lips. âWouldâve been nice to know that when I was rotting in an off-grid prison,â you said bitterly, letting the words hang in the air like smoke.
Loki flinched, but only slightly, and his voice softened. âI didnât know.â He looked at you then, fully, his eyes heavy with something that almost resembled regret. âIf I had... I wouldâve come for you.â
The weight of his words pressed against your chest, and for a moment, you couldnât breathe. You believed him. The edge in his voice, the way his gaze lingered on you - it cut through your defences in a way nothing else could.
You took another sip of your drink, trying to swallow the lump in your throat. âDoesnât matter,â you said finally, shrugging as though it didnât ache to say it. âSteve didnât take that long to bust us out.â
He didnât reply, just sipped his drink, and for a moment, the two of you drank in silence. The warmth of the liquor settled in your stomach, mixing with the heat radiating from his proximity.
Then you set your glass down and looked him in the eye. âWhy are you here, Loki?â
His gaze locked onto yours, sharp and unflinching, as he drained the rest of his glass. He placed it on the counter with deliberate care before answering. âThor and I stopped an apocalypse, known as Ragnarok,â he said, his voice measured but edged with exhaustion. âIt would have destroyed Asgard, and all its people. It very nearly did.â
Your stomach dropped, shame crawling up your spine. All your bitter complaints about his absence felt suddenly small and selfish in the face of what heâd been dealing with.
But he wasnât done. âBut that doesn't matter now. Thanos is close,â he continued, his tone darkening. âHe is coming to Earth to hunt the remaining Infinity Stones. And he will tear your world apart to get them.â
You stiffened, the weight of his words sinking in. You scoffed, more out of instinct than disbelief, and reached for the bottle to pour yourself another glass. âSounds like a problem for whatâs left of the Avengers,â you said, forcing a note of bitterness into your voice. âTalk to Tony. Or Natasha, or Fury-â
âThor is with them already,â Loki interrupted.
Your hand froze mid-pour, and your stomach churned again. You set the bottle down, gripping the edge of the counter as the realisation hit you. âThey sent you to find me.â
âNo.â Lokiâs voice was firm, steady. âI came because you need to understand what is coming. Anyone who can fight... must.â
The words hung heavy between you, cutting through the faint hum of the night outside. You swallowed hard, then grabbed the bottle again and poured a shot straight into your empty glass.
"You don't know what you're asking me."
"I do."
You downed it in one go, letting the burn distract you for a fleeting second before setting the glass down with a sharp clink.
"No, you fucking don't. They watched. They stood there, and watched as we were being cuffed, sedated, carted away to the Raft-"
"I understand-"
"I was arrested for treason, Loki!" Your fingers tightened around the bench as that familiar burning fear raced through you. You shut your eyes and breathed through it. Trying to figure out a way to explain... "Treason carries the death penalty. And... they stood by and watched."
Loki's hand slid over yours, and you felt your grip ease. Felt the fear ease, too. Into something much more like the lingering scar of betrayal.
âAfter Steve got us out,â you said, your voice quieter now, tinged with something raw and broken, âall I wanted was to leave that life behind. To be normal. Have a dead-end job. Read books on the beach. Drink coffee on long mornings. Have meaningless sex with hot strangers. Just... exist. Enjoy humanity.â
Loki's thumb brushed over your hand. âIf you donât want to fight,â he said, his voice soft but serious, âI will get you somewhere safe.â
You scoffed, giving him a sharp look. âDonât be stupid,â you said. âOf course Iâm going to fight."
A slow smirk tugged at his lips as he pulled his hand away, and you rolled your eyes, running a hand down your face. âIâm not really in fighting shape, though,â you muttered.
Lokiâs gaze raked over you, and his smirk widened. âYou look as deadly as always,â he said, his tone dripping with suggestion. "I've certainly no complaints."
You shot him a glare, though the heat rising to your face betrayed you. âSure,â you said dryly. âCause how I look will help take down an intergalactic warlord. Asshole.â
He chuckled, low and rich. âDid the meaningless sex at least help?â
A laugh slipped out before you could stop it, and you shook your head, smirking. âNever got to that part,â you admitted. âI guess you could say my former life left me with some trust issues."
Loki let out a low breath through his nose, allowing you to voice your bitterness. You shook your head, bumping your brows as you looked at your empty glass, then back at him. "Youâre actually the first person Iâve let into this apartment.â
Lokiâs smirk shifted, softening into something more thoughtful. âBut obviously, you're not here for that,â you added quickly, your voice tinged with defensiveness.
âObviously,â he echoed, though his eyes sparkled with mischief. âBut you never know. This could all be an elaborate ruse to make you agree to one night of passion and fun before our inevitable demise at the hands of the Mad Titan.â
You flushed deeper, glaring at him even as a laugh escaped you. âThat would be an elaborate ruse indeed.â
The tension between you thickened, charged and electric, as his smirk lingered. His gaze was unwavering, piercing through every defence youâd built over the years.
Finally, you broke the silence. âDo you really think itâs inevitable?â you asked, your voice quiet, the weight of the question heavier than you wanted to admit. âThat Thanos will win?â
Lokiâs smirk faded, replaced by something far more somber. He held your gaze, his expression unreadable.
âI donât know,â he said finally, his voice low and steady. âBut knowing youâll be fighting... tips the scales in our favour.â
The silence that followed was thick, almost suffocating, broken only by the low hum of the refrigerator. You tilted your head, biting back the flood of emotions threatening to spill. âWeâll leave in the morning.â
His sharp gaze didnât waver, but the set of his jaw tightened.
âTomorrow, weâre back to being allies,â you said, the word tasting bitter in your mouth. âAnd my rule goes back into play.â
"Ah, yes. Your infuriating little rule." His lips quirked into a faint smirk, but his eyes stayed on you, unrelenting. âA sensible boundary, I suppose. Though hardly foolproof.â
âYeah, well,â you said, shrugging as casually as you could. âItâs kept me out of trouble so far.â
His gaze dipped, flickering over you in a way that made your skin flush. âHas it, though?â
You ignored the jab, focused instead on setting the glass on the counter. Then, before you could stop yourself, you said, âSo, if tonightâs my last night of normalâŚâ You met his eyes, your mouth quirking into a bitter smile. âYou up for helping me fulfil my dream of having some meaningless sex before I give up this life?â
Loki stilled. The teasing glint in his eyes dimmed as his expression shifted, unreadable. He set his own glass down deliberately, his long fingers tracing the rim as if to gather his thoughts. When he finally spoke, his voice was low, deliberate, and edged with something you didnât dare name.
âLet me be very clear,â he said, his eyes pinning you in place. âI would gladly give you anything you desire in the bedroom. Anything. I would show you things that would shatter your mind, ruin you for anyone else. Pleasure so profound, so exquisite, youâd never be able to look at another lover without laughing at how pitifully inadequate they are.â
Your breath hitched, the heat in your cheeks spreading down your neck, but you refused to look away.
Heat prickled up your neck, but his eyes pinned you in place, his tone softening as he added, âBut the one thing I cannot give you, is meaningless. Not with you. Never with you.â
Your heart stuttered, the weight of his words landing like a blow. He wasnât teasing. He wasnât mocking. He was standing there, raw and unguarded, and it made you want to take his hand, run far, far away, and leave the universe to defend itself.
You exhaled sharply, grabbing the edge of the counter to steady yourself. âMaybe,â you started, your voice softer than you intended, âafter this whole Infinity Stone bullshit is over, we can indulge in something thatâs just about us. Not about the universe. Not saving it. Just... something we've both wanted for a while.â
His eyes darkened, and for a moment, you thought he might kiss you right there. But instead, he nodded, a ghost of a smile tugging at his lips. âIf that promise keeps you alive,â he said, his voice barely above a whisper, âIâll happily make it.â
You huffed a dry laugh, shaking your head as you pushed off the counter. âWell, arenât you a hero,â you muttered, grabbing your jacket and slinging it over your shoulder. âLetâs get this over with.â
Before you could brush past him, his hand shot out, fingers wrapping around your arm with a grip that was firm but not rough. The contact stopped you cold, and you turned your head to look up at him.
His face was inches from yours, his voice a low murmur that felt like it was slicing through the air. âYou will stay alive, wonât you?â
The sincerity in his tone knocked the air from your lungs. He wasnât taunting you. He wasnât playing games.
You forced a smile, one that didnât quite reach your eyes. âHell isn't ready for me yet,â you said, your voice steadier than you felt.
He held your gaze for a moment longer before releasing your arm. His hand lingered, just slightly, as if reluctant to let go. But his hand fell away, and you felt the loss of his touch like a physical ache.
You took one more deep breath, one more indulgent glance over his face, before turning headed for the door. âCome on,â you said without looking back. âLetâs go save the world.â
Behind you, Loki followed, and the quiet promise lingered between you both: something more, something meaningful, if the universe allowed it.

Fall Into Me - Chapter Nine: I'd Fall for You Twice if That's What You Wanted
dbf!Joel x f!reader
Summary: Joel is hanging on by a thread as a single father to a tenacious 10-year-old Sarah. Feeling like he's drowning, like the world is about to spit him out, he needs some help before he breaks in half. At your dad's insistence, you show up in his life and change everything.
Story is inspired by the song Fall Into Me by Forest Blakk. Chapter titles will be lyrics from the song.
Word Count: 3.2k
Chapter Warnings: Explicit, under 18 take a hike. No outbreak AU. Lots of feelings. Sarah, Tommy, Emily, and JB unknowingly banding together for the win. Joel is his own warning. Inappropriate (or entirely appropriate?) use of a massager. Age gap of about 9 years (Reader 24/25, Joel 33/34). No use of y/n. Reader has a nickname used only by her dad and Joel uses various terms of endearment (darlin', sweetheart, etc.).
Thank you so much to everyone who reads this self-indulgent story and extra thanks to those who comment and/or reblog - you all make me feel like a rock star!
Dividers by the wonderful @saradika-graphics
Chapter Eight | Main Masterlist
âGirl, youâve got it baaad,â Emily teased, watching you eye your phone every five seconds. The pair of you were getting drinks at your favorite watering hole the Saturday before your first full week of officially teaching.
âI canât help it, Em. Heâs got this, like, hold over me or something,â you replied sheepishly, one hand tucking your phone away in your back pocket. You were starting to annoy yourself with how often you checked for texts from Joel.
âYouâre in love, thatâs what happens.â Emily shrugged and sipped at her fruity mixed drink. âHowâd the holidays go?â
Your expression lit up as you told Emily about your first major holidays with the Millers. Having spent some holidays with them while you were still away at school, your dad already fit into their family dynamic seamlessly. You were a happy and much-loved addition to the festivities and there was plenty of laughter among the adults at how badly Tommy botched dinner for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Why Joel and your dad ever let him try again after the wreck that was Thanksgiving dinner was beyond you. Thankfully, your dad saved the day both times with his unparalleled grilling skills.
âSo, itâs safe to say that JBâs still happy about you and Joel being together?â Emily asked after your own laughter at recounting the mess died down.
âIs he ever,â you replied with a shake of your head. âHe loves to rib Joel on making an honest woman out of me. Joel takes it in stride, but Iâm kinda afraid that itâll scare him off if my dad keeps it up.â
âOh, please! That man is clearly head over fuckinâ heels for you. Hell, heâs already told you and JB that he loves you, heâs not goinâ anywhere!â After taking another sip of her drink, Emily shot you a pointed look. âWhen the hell am I gonna meet Joel, anyway? I feel like youâre actively hiding him from me.â
You stilled.
Were you doing that? You didnât think so, not at first, but⌠If you were honest with yourself, there was an element of truth to Emilyâs accusation.
âShit, Em. Iâm not doing it purposefully, I swear,â you replied beseechingly, pausing to figure out how to properly explain things. Finding a scratch in the tabletop suddenly fascinating, you stared at it while continuing. âI just have to share him so much already, between Sarah and my dad, even his brother â not that I begrudge him spending time with any of them, especially Sarah! Itâs just⌠when I have time with him, I want to keep him to myself. You know what I mean?â
God, that made you sound so selfish. You looked up to find Emily grinning at you.
âWhat?â you asked, confused.
âIâve never seen you so in love. It looks good on you.â Emily clinked her now empty glass against your half-full one. âJust promise me that Iâll get to meet him soon. We could do a double date or something, so it doesnât take away too much of your precious alone time.â
Over another round of drinks, you made plans for a few Fridays from now, quietly hoping Joel wouldnât mind.
Heading home, you longed to see Joel, but it was late, and he was spending time with Sarah. He went to great lengths to make sure his daughter did not feel left out or neglected while the two of you explored your relationship, setting aside time for just the two of them to hang out. You loved that about him and knew how important that quality time was for Sarah. Besides, you planned to head over there tomorrow to get a little quality time of your own ahead of the busy week ahead.
In the morning, you slept in and lazed around the house for a while, taking the opportunity to relax and ease into your day while your dad puttered around until mid-day. You hadnât heard from Joel, but that didnât bother you â he knew you planned to come over. Around one oâclock, you headed over to the Millers, picking up some pizza and beer on the way. Â
Pulling up in front of the house, you found your usual spot in the driveway taken by your dadâs truck while Tommyâs truck blocked the remaining space. With a huff you parked along the curb. You would have ordered more pizza if you knew everyone would be here.
âHowdy boys,â you greeted as you walked in. âI come bearing pizza and beer, though I fear weâll need lots more with this crew.â
Only one set of eyes turned away from the football game playing on TV as they all greet you in return. Getting up from his beloved corner spot on the couch, Joel took the pizza and beer from your hands and placed them on the coffee table before pulling you into the kitchen for a proper greeting.
âHi darlinâ, Iâve missed you,â Joel murmured, his voice already raspy from yelling at the TV. He pulled you close until your bodies were flush together and kissed you deeply. Like a magnet, your fingers threaded through his messy curls, tugging gently as he nibbled your bottom lip.
âMmm, I missed you, too, handsome. Didnât know you were having company.â
Joel flashed his big cow eyes at you, eyebrows pinched together regretfully. ââM sorry, baby. I didnât know they were coming by to watch the game âtil they got here. Apparently, my TV is the best, so here they are. Hope thatâs ok. Iâll kick âem right the hell out if you want me to.â
The thought did cross your mind.
âNah, enjoy the game with the boys. Iâll sit with you guys for a bit then hang with Sarah until they leave.â Still wrapped in each otherâs arms, you nuzzled the tanned skin of Joelâs neck and he hummed.
âYou gonna stay over?â
You shouldnât, not on a school night â your first as a bona fide teacher â but you had so little time together. âSure. Just donât keep me up too late, Mister. Those kids are exhausting, and I need my energy for the first day.â
âMiller! Stop neckinâ with my daughter and get your ass out here!â your dadâs voice bellowed through the house, causing the two of you to spring apart.
âJesus, Dad,â you sighed, pecking Joel on the lips one last time before following him out to the living room. When would the game be over?
Surprisingly, you enjoyed the time watching the game with everyone. Even Sarah came down to join you all at half-time, book in hand, and sat between you and Joel reading. It was a lovely afternoon and a lovelier night as Joel held you in his arms, whispering words of praise into your hair until you fell into a deep slumber.
Your first week of teaching passed in a blur. After a month of assisting the prior teacher before his official retirement, the students knew you and respected your authority, setting the stage for an overall lovely experience. You started off with earth science lessons and most of the kids were engaged and eager to learn. Of course, you had a few little challenges with difficult students testing their boundaries, but you felt good about the way you handled each situation.
You stayed later after the students were dismissed, using the time to organize the room to your liking and get the lesson plans in order. Sarah perched at one of the long wooden tables working on her homework while you completed your tasks. The pattern offered you and Sarah some quality time together and the young girl found great enjoyment in putting you on the spot, especially when her dad was the topic at hand.
âJB keeps telling dad he needs to marry you,â Sarah blurted randomly Friday afternoon. âDo you want to?â
Staring at her wide-eyed, unsure what to say, you merely shrugged. Why was everyone so focused on the two of you getting married? You only started dating a few months ago!
Tilting her head to the side with a little smirk, Sarah replied, âThatâs not a ânoâ.â
She was getting to be as bad as your dad and Tommy.
âYou could be my stepmom! I always wanted one since I didnât get to have a regular mom.â
Despite Sarahâs cheerfulness at the idea, your heart ached for all the real mom-related experiences she didnât get to have. You knew exactly how that felt. If marrying Joel wasnât already something you hoped for in the future, it would be after hearing Sarah expressing her desire for a stepmom, for you as a stepmom.
Sarah kept talking, while you lost yourself in thought.
Would you be a good stepmom?
God, you hoped so.
You never had one, JB chose to never get too serious with anyone after your mom, but you heard enough horror stories from your friends about their own stepmoms through the years. It sounded like a thankless job. But all the people you knew with stepparents had both birth parents still in their lives, so maybe your experience would be different.
The late bell chimed, drawing you out of your ever-spiraling thoughts.
âCome on, nugget. Letâs get you home,â you said, pushing thoughts of marriage and step parenthood to the farthest recesses of your mind.
âIf youâre not gonna marry my dad, could you at least move in with us? It would be so great if you lived with us!â
Jesus fucking Christ in a handbasket. This kid sure knew how to keep you on your toes.
Leaning over the bar top with hunched shoulders and an aching back, Joel picked at the label on the beer bottle. He didnât often visit the bar after work, not since Sarah came into his life, but he finally had some extra money and felt like treating himself. You stopped letting him pay you months ago, when the two of you became more to each other than just babysitter and boss, and he stashed that money away each week, saving it for what he didnât know.
At his side, Tommy carried on about some chick he met a few weeks ago. A pretty attorney who was way out of his league and already turned him down twice. Like a dog with a bone, Tommy showed no signs of giving up yet.
âYou better be careful, brother. She may get a restraining order against you if you donât take it easy,â Joel said, voice a rich rumble.
Tommy waved him off with a chortle. âOh please. Sheâs loving it. Chicks like that like being pursued.â
âIf you say so.â Joel didnât know this woman or what she liked, but he knew for a fact that you would hate it if a guy relentlessly pursued you after turning him down, not once, but twice. He smiled at the thought of you kicking a guy like that in the fucking balls to prove that you were very much not interested.
He full on laughed at the thought of you kicking his little brother in the balls, causing Tommy to glance sideways at him.
âWhatâs so funny, huh?â
âNothinâ,â Joel grumbled, clearing his throat. Thoughts of you continued to invade his mind, just like they always did. You were always on his mind, and he loved it. If only you were always in his bed⌠Joel cleared his throat. âHey, uh. How do you know if itâs too early to ask a girl to move in?â
Tommy groaned. âWhy you always askinâ me this shit? How am I supposed to know? I have less actual relationship experience than you do.â
âWho else am I supposed to ask, huh? JB? Donât imagine thatâd go over too well,â Joel replied with a defeated shrug, but Tommy conceded the point.
âYou need more friends, man.â Clearing his throat, Tommy gave it a momentâs thought. âWell, the way I see it, you love her, and she loves you, everyone knows it, and JB and Sarah are both happy for the two of you. Moving in together seems like the logical next step, right?â
Joel nodded, still uncertain.
âOnly the two of you can know if the pace is right. Seems to me like you both waited long enough for the right one to come along. Youâve both been through some shit, why waste any more time?â
Damn, when did his little brother become so insightful?
âAlright, I get your point. Do you think sheâll say yes if I ask?â As secure as he was in your love for each other, Joel still floundered a bit at each new step in the relationship department.
âI dunno, brother. Youâre just gonna have to grow a pair and find out.â
âFuckinâ grow a pair,â Joel grumbled, punching Tommy in the arm, hard.
The pair bickered through another round, like brothers do, before calling it an evening. Eager to see you and Sarah, Joel didnât want to waste away the evening in the bar with Tommy. As they walked out to their trucks, Tommy stopped Joel with a hand on his shoulder.
âListen, brother. In all seriousness, I think sheâll say yes, so just ask, ok?â
Joel nodded his thanks and confirmed plans for watching the game at his place on Sunday, before climbing into his truck. The trip home didnât take long, and for that Joel was grateful. His back ached after a busy week of hard labor followed by an hour sitting hunched over the bar. Heâd kill for a massage.
The house was quiet when he walked in, no sign of you or Sarah on the ground floor. Kicking off his work boots and dropping the truck keys onto the hook near the door, Joel slowly climbed the stairs to the second floor.
Light flooded into the hall from Sarahâs bedroom, the sound of giggles and low voices echoing in the air. He moved slowly, quietly, until he could just peek around the door jamb. You sat on Sarahâs bed, the little girl perched in front of you, as you braided her wiry curls.
The sight melted Joelâs insides into a gooey puddle.
This. This was exactly what he wanted to come home to everyday.
He had to ask you to move in.
Just as he straightened up with a silent groan, ready to enter the room, Sarahâs sweet little voice left him frozen in place.
âI think youâd make the best stepmom.â
âThis again,â you griped playfully. âYou do, huh? Why?â
Was this something Sarah brought up before? Joel held his breath, waiting for Sarahâs response.
âBecause you love my dad and you love me, youâre always kind even when things go wrong, youâre smart, and you like spending time with me. But most of all, because you do the things a mom does even though youâre not my mom and you donât have to.â
He caught your gasp even though you tried to hide it from Sarah. You were as affected by Sarahâs heartfelt, innocent confession as he was. His adorable, sweet little girl knew youâd make a great stepmom and he agreed with all her reasons. If possible, he fell further in love with you in that moment after seeing you through his daughterâs eyes.
âWell, youâre right, nugget. I do love you and your dad, and I hope that one day, when the time is right, I can be your stepmom. Until then, weâll just keep doing what weâre doing, ok? Iâll still love you to pieces even without the official title.â
You choked out the words, on the verge of tears, and Joel felt his own eyes begin to water. Unable to bear it any longer, he swept through the doorway and pulled you both against his chest in a big bear hug. His precious girls. He loved you both more than words could express.
âDaddy! Youâre squeezing too tight! Imma burst!â Sarah shrieked with laughter as he tossed her onto the bed and began tickling her with one hand, his other still holding your close.
âDid youâŚâ Your eyes searched his, a hint of worry hiding in their depths, and Joel grinned, pressing a tender kiss to your forehead.
âI heard it all,â Joel confirmed, confidence bolstered knowing you wanted to marry him at some point. Conveying every feeling held in his heart through his eyes, he added, âMove in with us. Please.â
Your eyes flicked back and forth between his, searching for confirmation. âAre you sure?â
âIâve never been surer of anything in my life, darlinâ.â
The three of you celebrated with ice cream after you agreed to move in with them before putting Sarah to bed. By then, Joelâs back ached something fierce and you offered to use the message gun he forgot he had.
âLay face down on the bed, my love,â you directed, watching with adoration as he tugged the shirt over his head, jeans hanging low on his hips. The muscles rippled in his arms and back as he settled on the soft mattress. âReady?â
âYes,â Joel murmured, huffing when you climbed over him to straddle his ass.
Turning on the massage gun, you put it on the middle setting and pressed the ball against the flesh of his traps. Even through the device, you could feel how tight those muscles were. It must be where he held his tension. Over the next half hour, you worked the massager over his back, soaking in the grunts that bordered on pain and relief. Somewhere along the way, the groans turned pleasurable, and Joel rolled onto his back, leaving you to straddle his thighs as the bulge in his jeans grew.
Joelâs hands moved to undo the button on his jeans, but you batted his hand away with a mischievous grin. With wide, wondrous eyes, he watched you adjust the setting on the massager and run it along the seam of his pants.
âOh fuck,â he hissed, cock twitching with interest at the vibration. âDonât stop.â
Hands gripping your hips, he bucked up into the delightful buzz of the massager, a steady stream of moans falling from his lips as the vibrations spread from his balls upwards to the head of his cock. Fuck, if it felt that good through his jeans, how good would it feel directly on his cock?
âDo you want me to increase the speed setting?â you purred, pressing the massager harder against him.
âOh God, fuck. Yes⌠ungh. Please.â The words fell from his lips in a series of whimpers as you adjusted the settings. Within moments, he moaned a bit too loudly and came in his pants. You didnât let up on the pressure though, the vibration drawing out his orgasm until every last drop of his load was blown and his body nearly convulsed with the overstimulation.
Chest heaving, he watched you switch off the massager and run your fingers along the large wet spot on his jeans, his cock twitching tiredly in response.
âThat was fucking sexy,â you murmured, enthralled with the mess you just made of him.
âYeah? Lemme see that thing. Think itâs my turn now, pretty girl.â

chris has a fat crush on reader but since he's scared of his feelings he just teases her / mistreats her bc he won't accept the fact that he has a crush but nick puts him in his place
Blue Flats
Pairing: Chris Sturniolo X Female Reader
Synopsis: Chris always had a thing for teasing Y/N, but what happens when he takes it too far? Annoyed by his actions she vowed to never speak to Chris again, but will it change when all that was done is forgiven? đ¤
Warningsâ ď¸: None, this is lowkey enemies to lovers if you SQUINT. I kind of loved this one had me giggling and what not âđ˝đ¤. Hope you enjoy babesssđŤśđ˝
Song for imagine: There Goes My Baby- The Drifters
There goes my baby
Moving on down the line
Wonder where, wonder where, wonder where
She is found
Most 20 year old men would say their biggest fear is something stupid like crashing their new car, or getting a parking ticket. But for some reason Chrisâ only fear was you. Well that soundsâŚ. Scary? He liked you alot, well actually that was an understatement. A day without you was like a year without rain.
He yearned to see your smile light up a room, and to hear your annoying laugh that somehow made his heart burst with joy. Fighting back a smile every time he saw you or anytime your name was mentioned. He was scared of commitment and was scared of ruining things with someone he liked so much.
Everyday was a constant battle that started many years ago. For a long time Chris hated you, he found you annoying and anal about everything. A goody who was scared of the outside world. Constantly teasing you with his friends like throwing pebbles at you when you would walk by. To say Chris was an asshole was an understatement.
Flashback
âChrissss stop itâ Y/N yelled as she played a very unwanted game of tug-o-war with Chris for her shiny blue ballet flats
Danging them above her head, as he was surprisingly taller than her at his 10 year old age.
âOr what? Going to cry to mommy?â He asked her tauntingly as his friends laughed behind him
âYouâre being so mean to meâ The young girl replied hurt and mainly embarrassed by the crowd now surrounding them
âSnitches get stitchesâ He replies lifting the shoes higher
âYou spit gum in my hair! I had every right to taddle to your momâ She squeaked as she jumped to attempt and snatch her shoes from his grasp
âNo one likes you anywaysâ He replies pushing her away
âJust give me my shoesâ She replies as tears threatened to spill from her eyes
âSince you want them so bad then get themâ He states as he chucks them over his shoulder into a puddle of brown water
Y/Nâs beautiful blue flats completely destroyed by Chrisâ careless actions
As the crowd cleared out, Y/N looked over at Chris as she wiped her now dirty hands across her face to clear her tears out.
âI hate you Chris, I never want to see you againâ She replied running home with her dirty shoes in her hands
Flashback over
His mind often went to that day. He couldnât fathom the idea of liking you because you know girls had cooties at that age. So instead he teased you in hopes that you would think it was funny and would catch on.
However he shouldâve known that wasnât the case as you were a very sensitive person since you could open your eyes. Constantly kicking himself over the whole ordeal. Except in Sophomore year of high school when his crush made his heart feel like a tight rubber band ready to snap.
He had to talk to you and clear all this up, or any chance with you would be doomed. So when he approached you and you actually treated him like a normal human being, he felt even worse. Wincing at the cringey apology he decided was right, he felt an instant weight off his shoulders when the words âitâs water under the bridgeâ left your lips.
Like a record scratch, a pause in time, a slo mo from a cheesy rom com. His eyes slowly blinked as you smiled at him. Patting his shoulder and offering him a term of endearment. That changed his feelings towards you even more. Even after what he did to you, you had still been nice to him.
So as you walked away in those blue ballerina flats that were oh so similar to the ones from when you were a kid. He only had one thought in his mindâŚ..â I have got to get herâ
Yet as the both of you got close, not by choice might I add. Nick and Y/N had became best friends in junior year, so he always found his way to be near the girl. You would think he tried his best to ask you out.
But nope, instead he continued to tease you and mistreat you. Often bantering as you both crossed each others path. And even with their fame they stood friends with the flourishing girl. Splitting time between LA and Boston.
As they got more fame though they rarely came back to Boston as much as they used to. However it was Fourth of July which meant theyâd be back in town. And lucky for Chris this meant sleepovers with youâŚ. Well more like sleepovers with Nick, but he would still find a way to shimmy himself in and tease you.
Even while in LA if you and Nick were on the phone heâd waste no time throwing a jab at you. Nick often puts himself on mute to curse Chris out. Something you found funny and just the slight laugh Chris would hear would have him on cloud 9. He would even comment under your instagram posts. Many foolish boyish comments that had the young girl blushing and giggling.
Sliding into the island chair in his momâs kitchen he grabbed a few chips and shoved them in his mouth. His mom is cooking some pasta in preparation for the fourth of July party that had just begun. Most of their close family and friends in their yard talking and laughing over the music playing. Their block is full of young kids running around and laughing, chasing each other with water guns and playing tag.
âChris donât spoil your appetite sweetheartâ His mom stated as she handed a pan of food over to her friend to take outside
âYeah Chrissy poo donât mess up your appetiteâ Matt came in mocking him
âBeat it assholeâ Chris replied shoving Mattâs hand off his shoulder
Rushing in the back door was Y/N.
Sliding around the island
âIs there anything I can help you with?â She asked their mom
âOh no sweety Iâm all good here, thank youâ She replied as she strained the pasta
âIf you do need any help do askâ She says smiling at Mary Lou
âStill a brown noser even out of schoolâ Chris states tossing a chip in his mouth
âAt least she asked me if I needed help unlike you, so knock it offâ Mary states looking over at Chris with a stern face
Rolling his eyes, he took a sip of his pepsi as Y/N smirked at him
âHey, do you happen to know where Nick is?â She asked their mom
âActually I donât, but feel free to search the house for himâ She replies to the girl
âI am shocked you donât know where he is, you practically live up his assâ Chris replies sticking his tongue out at Y/N
âReal mature Chrisââ His mom states as she turns around and give him the stern mom look
âYou better apologize to Y/N right nowâ She states turning her back to him
âWhat it was just-â but he was soon cut off
âNow! Christopherâ She states sternly
Scoffing and rolling his eyes, he obliges and says heâs sorry
âApology accepted Christopherâ She replies sticking her tongue out at him. She knew he hated being called by his first name.
Sliding out of the kitchen Y/N soon disappeared to some part of the house to retrieve Nick.
That whole night consisted of Y/N and Chris bantering. Spitting watermelon seeds down each others shirts, Chris tripping her, and even pushing her into the pool âaccidentallyâ
Now in the kitchen his parents made him clean up the kitchen with Y/N because they couldnât take the childish behavior. They wanted them to talk it out and come back out once all issues were resolved.
âWhy are you such an asshole?â She suddenly asks him as he poured himself something to drink in his red solo cup
âAm notâ He states sipping on his pepsi
âAfter the childhood bullying from you. You would think you would have changedâ She replies spraying down the counter and cleaning it
âI was a child and you take things too seriousâ He replied looking over at her
âAnd you are 20, so the stupid teen boy bullshit should have endedâ She says slamming the counter drawer shut
âItâs all harmless my god you are still so analâ He replied drying the dishes
âSo do you just like hate me?â She asks the boy
This causes him to get nervous, grabbing his drink and sipping it slowly he takes a while to answer.
âNo, but youâre just easy to pick onâ He states, screwing his eyes shut he mentally kicks himself in the head for that.
Scoffing at him she threw the rag down
âHow mature.. You havenât changed much Chrisâ She says rolling her eyes at him
âAnd neither have you, still a cry babyâ He says shrugging his shoulders
What the fuck was he doing? Was all he kept thinking. Why was he being such a dick? Subconsciously pushing her away out of fear.
âI shouldâve listened to Elena Sophomore year of high schoolâ She states harshly as she begins to walk out the kitchen
âYeah? And what amazing advice did two face Elena give?â He asks her
âTo never forgive you for your actions because youâll always stay the same⌠a bullyâ She replies shaking her head and storming off
Slipping right past Nick, sniffling as she wiped her eyes. Avoiding contact with him and heading out their front door
âHey Y/N-â Nick began as his eyes followed you out the front door. Not getting to finish his sentence before you were out the front door.
Storming into the kitchen, to say he was shocked that Chris was in there was an understatement.
âWhat did you do now?â Nick asked Chris, watching as his eyes stared into his red solo cup
âNothingâ He replied guilty as hell
âY/N practically ran out our door crying, so you must have done something to upset herâ He says
âCrying?â Chris asks shaking his head
âYou are such a moron. You need to come to your senses and stop being a complete dick. You have the biggest crush on Y/N, and your actions are pushing her far away. She likes you a lot too, but she will not stick around much longer for this cringey childlike behavior.â Nick states jamming his pointer finger onto the counter
âIâm scared Nick, what if I mess things up. You know how scared of commitment I amâ Chris replied looking up at his brother
âIf you donât fix this now yallâs relationship will forever be fuckedâ He states
âI donât know what to doâ Chris exclaims
âTalk to her and apologize for being an assholeâ He says getting frustrated with his younger brother
âI know, but what do I even say?â He asks his brother
âI donât know, but what I do know is that your answer isnât at the bottom of that cup, so put it down and go make it up to her.â Nick states as he walks to their back door
âShit! Youâre rightâ Chris states snapping out of it
Placing the cup on the counter Chris rushes out the front door. Locking eyes with the back of your head. You were sitting on the curb in front of their house.
Reluctantly he walked down the steps and approached you. Slowly sitting down he looked over at you.
âHeyâ he stated as he sat
Looking over at him, Y/N rolled her eyes and straightened her posture
âHere to bully me some more?â She asks him
âWhat? noâŚno â He states furrowing his eyebrows
âSo then what do you want?â She asks rudely
âI want to apologizeâ he replies looking over at her
âWell donât say it if you donât mean itâ Y/N states
âWell I truly am sorry for everything Iâve ever done. Nothing Iâve ever said about you is true. I've been a complete asshole since I was 10. And Iâm aware of it. And Iâm so glad you forgave me in high school becauseâŚ..becauseâŚ.â
But Chris suddenly stopped his ramble, he couldnât form his next sentence. It became all too real as he looked into your eyes. Yours were searching for an answer and he was slowly panicking inside.
Its like those scenes in a movie where the main character is experiencing something traumatic and everything around them slows down and you only see the panic start to grow in their eyes. And their heartbeat quickens. Well yeah that was Chris right now.
But everything his brother just told him shot at his brain like speeding arrows. Piercing his memory with what just took place.
âBecause I LIKE YOU, and I have always liked you since we were kids. And the moment you forgave me in Sophomore year all I could think about was getting you to be mine. But Iâm an idiot because Iâm so scared of commitment. Iâm scared of ruining something thatâs good and hurting not only myself but you as well. So I thought pushing you away and teasing you would be better. Because even if you did hate me youâd always be around for Nick and Iâd always have my chance to slither in and annoy you. Because youâre the only person I want to spend my life with. And I know Iâve been a piece of shit to you for basically our whole lives, but I wish I could show you how I see you. Youâre breathtakingly gorgeous, and youâre funny, and kind, and very smart. Your smile lights up a whole room and your laughter fills me with happiness. And itâs likeâŚitâs like this love I have for you is bottling up in my chest and itâs like a rubber band ready to snap. And I guess⌠I guess Iâm justâŚ.im just too scared to have admitted that to you a long time ago. So once again Iâm sorry and if you hate me I get that; so just say the words and Iâll leaveâ He states never breaking eye contact with you
âI do⌠I do hate youâ Y/N responds and his heart sinks to his stomach. Like a punch to the face, but to say he deserved this was a severe understatement
âI hate you becauseâŚ. How could you wait so long to tell me those things? That you like me and that you think all those wonderful things about me?â She responds looking into his eyes for a deeper answer
âChristopher I have liked you since the day you cut my pigtails in second grade and I even liked you when you destroyed my favorite blue flats. It actually hurt me that I still liked you. So when you came to me in sophomore year, basically asking for forgiveness, I thought forgiving, you would be the doorway to you, asking me out or even telling me how you truly feelâ Y/N states as Chrisâ eyes saddened once more
â and Iâm sorry I wish I was able to man up and tell you this before, but I was so scared so scared of your reaction and so scared of losing you but then I realize doing this actually pushed you furtherâ He responded as he scooted closer to the young girl
âI like you a lot Chrisâ she responded as she looked deeper into his blue eyes
âAnd I like you a lot Y/Nâ he responded leaning in closer
And before you know it the young attractive pair had shared a loving and passionate kiss. A kiss outlined by the sparkles of the fireworks in the sky. His hand caressing her cheek as large fireworks blew up around them. The light casting a colorful reflection against them.
Making them fall deeper in love with one another. Who knew that it would be those damn blue ballerina flats that would have haunted him forever?
The End
Boy do my fingers hurt from typing away on this laptop. I donât know I kinda fuck with this one đ¤. Thank you all once again for the support. I LOVE YALL SOOO MUCH đĽşđ¤đ¤

Can you say "Jesus Christ ell could you make a longer tilte"? And I'll tell you yes I could've but I didn't for your comfort you're welcome btw
Barbie dolls: Five Hargreeves x gn!reader
Word: 2.9k
Summary: uh right so you were with five during the apocalypse and then it's like set in season 2 but you like forgot all about your life and shit and five findz you and yada yada it's cute I think
Warnings: I said you were born is 2006 BUT IT MAKES SENSE I DID MATH FOR THIS OKAY OKAY YOU GUYS ARE THE SAME AGE, I made a timeline if you need it, you're married to him, five makes a half joke Abt you being an escapee from the insane asylum, it's a lil sad bc Five loves you and you don't even remember him but whatcha gonna do?, you ogle a stripper/burlesque dancer I KNOW THEY AREN'T THE SAME BUT LEAVE ME ALONE I DODNT EVEN KNOW HOW TO DRIVE, five ogles a stripper/burlesque dancer, open ended ending bc I got tired of writing about a season we've all already watched, that's it I think
Something has always felt off. You couldnât remember anything before five months ago. There were faces around town that made you tilt your head because you were sure you knew them. Even the people you lived with hadnât met you before five months ago. They found you standing on the sidewalk down some road, looking around like youâd never even seen a town before. They let you in. You got a bed and a roof all for free. They were taking care of you out of the goodness of their heart. You didnât have the guts to not give them anything back so you got a job within your second month of living there.Â
It was a fine job. You worked in a diner. It wasnât anything crazy. It had milkshakes and a fine paycheck. It had red booths and a box pattern on the floor that you pretended was hopscotch when it hit a lull. Sometimes customers were rude but you spit in their food sometimes so you considered the world balanced. It was just a diner in the simplist terms. Nothing more. Nothing less.Â
Something about it all just seemed off. Youâd get songs stuck in your head that no one knew. Youâd get Deja vu about things you couldnât place. Youâd see people stare at you like they knew you and when you walked by they seemed sad. You didnât know who they were. Youâd get this feeling like you missing something. You were homesick for a home you couldnât remember.Â
You were currently listening to your coworker telling you about his day as you scribbled into your server pad. You had a flower in the bottom corner and you were starting a new spiral. The bell above the door rang. You kept listening to your coworker.Â
âSit anywhere youâd like and weâll be right with you.â You said, eyes still on the pad. Your coworker paused his spiel. You looked up from the pad to see what made him stop. A man who appeared to be your age walked straight across the diner floor. He was in a school uniform that you didnât recognize and his eyes were set on you. His hands were shoved in his pockets as he walked to the counter in front of you. He sat in the barstool right across from you and smiled at you. He looked you up and down before sighing.Â
âHi.â He said it like a weight was lifted off his shoulders. It sounded like he was seeing an old friend again. His face gave you that same sick stomach feeling. You tilted your head, staring at his face to see if you could place it. Nothing.Â
âWhat can I get you started with?â Your coworker said, picking up your slack. The man glanced over at your coworker and rolled his eyes before looking at you again.Â
âHave we met before?â You asked, leaning onto the counter to give him your full focus. His smile fell a little, sitting back. He gestured to his chest subconsciously.Â
âYou donât- you donât remember me?â He asked, looking hurt. You shook your head.Â
âNo, I had a mishap five months ago. I canât rember anything before that, so if weâve met Iâm sorry Iâve forgotten.â You said, shoving your server pad into your apron. The manâs eyebrows furrowed. He hummed.Â
âThat is horrific news.â He muttered. You shrugged.Â
âYeah.âÂ
âWell, Iâm not sure what to do now.â He said, looking down at the counter.Â
âYou could order and Iâll give you my number before you leave so you can call me and maybe reinform me?â You said. The man looked up and nodded. He sighed and tapped the counter.Â
Days later he was standing in the bedroom that was temperaily yours with a blackboard behind him. He turned to the blackboard writing something at the top. He pulled back and let you read it. âYour life for the past 50 yearsâ You snorted at his joke, looking over at him to see if he was laughing too. Your smile fell at the very serious look in his eyes. You tilted your head to the side. He pressed his lips together and shrugged.Â
âRight, first things first. Youâre in your seventies.â He said, clapping his hands together. You stared at him, realizing you might have let a crazy man into your home.Â
âRight. You can tell by my loafers and shaw.â You muttered. He shrugged.Â
âSecond thing my name is Five.â You actually laughed at that. You had officially let a crazy person into your home. You leaned back on your bad, staring at the ceiling to laugh harder.Â
âCourse Iâm seventy, and your name is Five. Whatâs next youâre going to tell me youâre a time traveler?â You joked, snorting again at your own joke. âFiveâ avoided your eyes and sighed. You gasped.Â
âYou are going to tell me youâre a time traveler.â You said, staring at him in shock. He turned back to the blackboard. His hand shot out, making a line across the board. âFive" drew a small vertical line at the start. You heard the chalk writing and then he pulled back. On top of the vertical line was âBirth (2006)â. Your eye twitched.Â
Hours later the board was full to the max, Five was breaking a sweat, and you felt like your head was going to explode. You stood from the bed, pacing back and forth as Five pulled off his top blazer and rolled up his sleeves. He really was selling the substitute teacher look now. You huffed and faced him.Â
âSo just to recap, We got stuck in the apocalypse for 45 years. Then we were hired by basically an assassination team. Then we time traveled back to the âpresentâ which at the time was 2019. Then we didnât stop the apocalypse and time traveled again so we didnât all die. Your time travel shit knocked my memories out of my ear or whatever. We got trapped in the 60s and you just got here. There are 5 other people in this town who are also time travelers. You and your siblings have superpowers. And thereâs another apocalypse coming. Is that right?â You said, counting on a finger at each new event. Five hummed, tapping the chalk against the side of his face and turning back to the board. He looked at the chalkboard covered in white lines. It was honestly hard to look at and you were curious as to how either of you were still standing up right. Five clicked his tongue.Â
âOh! Also, weâve been married for decades. Coming up on 36 years or something along those lines. Itâs a little hard to keep track with all the time travel but once I get my hands on a calendar I can let you know specifics.â Five said, adding another note to the board. You stared at him for a moment. He turned around and gave you a small smile.Â
âWell, isnât that wild? What a life huh? You know not to be rude but if all of this is true, and thatâs a major if, why would I want to go back to a life like that? I mean running from apocalypses, apocalypsi? Ends of the world. Actually, I'm an assassin. I know itâs a lame life but I think Iâd rather work at the diner.â You said, sitting down on the edge of the bed again. Five chewed on his lip, setting the piece of chalk down. He settled next to you sighing on his way down and making you believe the 70-year-old spiel a little more.Â
âIf you want to stay here, you can. I wonât stop you. Iâm not going to force you to come with me. I just want to remind you that your life here would only last 10 more days.â He said. It was subtle and quiet but you heard the break in his voice at the end of his talk. You hummed and stared at the carpet. You looked over at him to see a dusty white patch on the side of his face. His head was dipped down like he was trying to hide the fact he was crying. You reached over and wiped the chalk off the side of his face. Five turned his head away from you, wiping at his eyes. When he faced you again you were holding out a tissue to him. He pulled back, staring down at the tissue.Â
âWhereâd you get that?â You scoffed, waving it at him. He snatched it out of your hand.Â
âStop asking me questions, Iâm clearly in a fragile mental state. I just learned Iâm 70 and married, itâs a lot to take in. Especially now that I know I have to help stop the end of the world for the second time apparently.â You muttered, looking back at the carpet. Even though when you first walked into the room you felt like you were going to throw up just looking at the color now you thought you might miss it. Five sat up.Â
âYouâre not staying?â He whispered, scared if he pulled his tone up youâd change your mind.Â
âWell, I donât know you. I used to. And when I did, I trusted you enough to marry you. And not divorce you for the thirty years after that. I think if I had my memories, Iâd trust you enough to follow you to the end of the world.â You said. Five sighed and looked at your lips. You had no idea what it felt like to stare your lover in the eyes and see unrecognization staring back at you. You felt an awkward pain of âI donât really care but I shouldâ hit your heart. You leaned back and reached your hand out. You awkwardly patted his shoulder. He pressed his lips together and nodded.Â
âYeah, itâs you. Itâs still you.â He muttered before standing up. He held his hand out towards you. You looked between his face and hand, staying seated.Â
âRight.â Five dropped his hand and spun around towards the door. He gestured over his shoulder to follow him. You looked at the chalkboard and assumed he didnât care enough to fix it. You followed after him.Â
âWhere are we headed?â You asked once you were both halfway down the street from your temporary home. You shouldâve asked earlier but you were focused on keeping pace with him. Five glanced at you from the corner of his eye.Â
âStrip club.â He said blatantly. You clapped your hands together once.Â
âAh. What was I thinking? Of course, weâre going to the strip club. Perfect first date if you ask me.â You said, waving your arms in the air. As a lady in short heels and a blue dress walked past you, you spoke to her. âWhere are you off to? Weâre off to the strip club! I think Iâve associated myself with a madman!â You said, shaking your head around and throwing your hands up. Five reached back for you, pulling you away by your elbow. The woman looked at you both with disgust as she slowly walked backward away from you both.Â
âSo sorry. Theyâre an escape from the asylum. Iâm taking them back now, pay it no mind.â Five said. He gave the woman a polite smile. You turned back to him gasping and holding your finger up.Â
âThatâs what the P in Marsha P. Johnson stands for!â You said, facing ahead again. âOh, how I love that woman.â You muttered. Five kept his attention on the woman.Â
âSee? Theyâre making up historical figures. Cuckoo.â He waved his finger around next to his ear and faced the front again. You smacked his shoulder. He pulled you away faster, picking up his pace.Â
Initially you thought he was kind of kidding when Five said you were going to a strip club. But you were now starting to realize you should stop assuming heâs joking about things. You sighed in the rather uncomfortable chair as you both sat near the stage. Your chairs were pressed together, by Five no less. The second you made it inside he was shoving a chair up against the other one, the armrests pressing into each other. You watched the lady on stage, wondering how much money she was making and wondering how hard burlesque would be to pick up. Five leaned over the arm of his chair, his hand hovering over his mouth as he spoke into your ear.Â
âYou know this isnât our first date right? Not even a date really.â Five said, watching you intently as you turned your head to face him. You were so close you could easily count the number of hairs forming his peach fuzz on his face. You didnât because that would be a waste of time but you could. You shrugged.Â
âI mostly said it as a joke but yes I would assume our first date wasnât to burlesque. Seeing as it was the apocalypse.â You said, shaking your head and looking back to the woman. You thought of dropping the conversation but knowing the specifics of your relationship would be so nice.Â
âWhat was it though? For research.â You added an excuse like he didnât fully know you were lying. Five shrugged and stared at the floor.Â
âWe had a table and chairs made out of these rocks we found. It was hard work getting it set up but we had an apocalypse dinner. Which basically consists of Twinkies and other food that cannot perish no matter how hard it tries. It was actually quite nice. We didnât really have a whole lot of time to just be normal people so even just sharing a Twinkie over our rock tables felt refreshing. Our dates after that were really just us sharing the same dirt pile as our bed and keeping each other alive. Then when we got back to 2019 I actually took you for a half-decent date. We went out and got takeout from the greasiest place imaginable and ate it at my father's extremely expensive table.â When he spoke a smile met his face like an old friend. He kept his eyes on the floor because he knew even though you were sitting next to him you wouldnât return the nostalgia ridden smile.Â
âYou really loved me. I canât believe I just realized that because you talked about Twinkies.â You said, looking at the floor like it could feel your surprise too. Five hummed.Â
âI love you, not loved. Itâs not in the past.â Five said, staring at you to make sure you saw the severity. You furrowed your eyebrows when your stomach swarmed. You raised an eyebrow.Â
âI wish I could tell you I love you back but I donât know you in that way. I donât even remember your favorite color.â You said. Five hummed and rubbed the side of your cheek with his thumb.Â
âItâs okay. I know you love me, even if you canât remember it. Iâm almost entirely certain we fall in love in every single timeline. Not to mention weâve had plenty of time together. I know you inside and out. I know the color of your 13th birthday cake. I know what you look like when your body has aged 50 years. I know all I need to know about you to love you till the day I die and onward. You know these things about me but theyâve settled like dust in your brain. Someone just needs to kick it up and youâll know my favorite color again. Youâll know what it was like to share a Twinkie over a rock table.â Five said, his thumb dipping down to your neck. He pulled his hand away, holding his head up with his hand instead.Â
âHow could you say something so nice while a womanâs tits are shaking on a stage next to you?â You asked, glancing at the now mostly naked woman on the stage. You looked back to Five. His eyes were fully set on you. His head was tilted in a way that made you think he was thinking of you before you lost every memory. He pressed his lips together.Â
âIâm looking at someone gorgeous, why would I waste my time letting my vision slip to her breasts.â Yeah, Five might feel that way, but you donât. You looked past him, dropping your jaw when you saw the move she made to slip her stocking off. With your dropped jaw, Five turned his head too. You both stared at her as she started to lose more clothes. A man stood behind Fiveâs chair. You reached out to Five, hoping he was down for conflict. The man leaned down towards Fiveâs ear. He whispered something and looked over at you. He smiled and gave you a light wave. You awkwardly looked around your surroundings, staring at the floor again.Â
âThey lost their memory. Itâs okay though, I have a theory itâll come back. Family meeting on the corner of Commence and Knox by the way, today at 10 pm.â Five said before standing up.Â
âCome on, love. We have four other people to find.â Five said. Snatching your hand off the chair and dragging you away. He mustâve realized he was holding your hand by the time you left the building, dropping your hand immediately.     Â
âShe was about to lose her pants.â You said. Five smiled but pretended he didnât, sighing and shaking his head. You snorted and followed after him.Â

Neteyam fucking his wife's bsf aster finding out his wife cheated (although it's for revenge ge can't help but think abt how long he's been wanting to do it)
MY TURN
ALL WORK IS MY ORIGINAL WORK! I DONâT OWN ANY CHARACTER!
PAIRING: NETEYAM X OMITIKAYA READER
WARNINGS: nsfw(18+), smut, minors dni, clit play, fingering, fem!bodied reader, omitikaya!reader, dry humping, aged up neteyam, degradation kink, squirting,creampie, unprotected sex, breeding kink, dry humping, pet namesÂ
NOTES: In this fic, and probably in any with Neteyam, he will be aged up. I donât feel comfortable writing smut for Neteyam at his current age even if he is considered an adult at 15 in naâvi terms. This goes for any other character as well if I feel like they are too young. So he is aged up and so is the reader. So 18-19 age range for him. My song recommendation for this chapter isâŚ. Dream Girl by Tanerelle <3Â
âľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľâľ
You had been watching Neteyam from afar, ever since you were kids. Maybe it was due to the fact that he was the oloâeyktanâs son, or because he had grown up to be a strong warrior. He followed his fatherâs footsteps, even going so far as to mating with your best friend right away. You were jealous of course, you had wanted it to be you. You had been the one who had become his friend first, you had been the one who became a companion to his mother when it came to taking care of Tuk, you had been the one to heal him when he got minor cuts and scratches. So when you found out he mated to your friend your heart broke, and it broke even more when you soon found out she fell pregnant immediately after. You tried not to show it but anger bubbled in the pit of your belly, you were right there and he went for her. You simply congratulated her and tried forgetting about him. You soon found a pleasure mate for yourself, not wanting an actual mate anymore finding a good companion in Aewtx. He was a good warrior, a great hunter, and an amazing lover. You fucked Aewtx every time you could, when you hunted, when you were down by the stream, but still you could not find yourself to mate with him and he never pushed.
Everything was going fine until on a random morning when your friend came crashing into your mauri crying. You could not understand anything she said until the few words you did understand sent your head spinning.
âNeteyam found out Fazrru isnât his!â She all but screamed in your face. You could feel your face contort in confusion.
âBut how, you got pregnant right after mating?â You asked, your head still spinning.
âI was already pregnant y/n, we never made the bond, we just pretended we did so his father wouldnât be upset.â She said as she calmed herself, now it all made sense. Why even though they were supposed to be mates, they never acted as such. You would catch Neteyamâs eyes wandering over your body, lingering on your breasts. He would also rub up close behind you, making sure you could feel his body against yours. Just thinking about all those moments made your face flush.
After she left, you decided to go find him at the spot you knew all. It was by the old shack you two would sneak off to as children. Itâs where you two kissed for the first time, thatâs why when he mated to your friend you were angry and confused, you thought that he had wanted you. And sure enough when you got there, there he was pacing around angrily.Â
âNeteyam I have been looking for you.â You said as you slowly approached him trying to be cautious. At the sound of your voice he quickly whipped his head around, looking straight into your eyes. Without any words spoken he quickly walked towards you and gripped your face in one hand, while his other hand went to gently grip your throat.
âDid you know she wasnât my kid! Did you know she was fucking Kamun all this time behind my back!â He yelled in your face while adding more pressure to the hand on your throat. You quickly shook your head no, you had no idea she had been doing all this behind his back.
âShe barely told me this morning after you found them!â You let out weakly as your eyes went wide, tears pooling. Looking down at your wide tear filled eyes, the way your mouth formed an o shape, and the light red painting your cheeks filled him with a primal instinct. He took advantage of his height over you and pulled you in for a kiss, his hold loosening around your throat allowing you to breathe. The gasp you let out worked to his advantage as he slipped his tongue inside your open mouth, tasting you again after so many years. You quickly returned the kiss, slipping your own tongue into his mouth as you two gave into each other after so many years. He quickly began trailing wet, hot kisses down your throat nipping at your skin with his fangs lightly as he trailed down. He found your collarbone and began sucking, knowing he was going to leave marks for everyone to see. His hand went to your breast kneading them and pinching your nipples through your top as your hands went down to his loincloth, desperate to untie it. He quickly pulled his head up next to your ear whispering about all the things he was going to do to you.
âItâs only fair I fuck her friend if sheâs been fucking mine behind my back for years.â He growled into your ear as his hands ripped off your top, followed by your loincloth. He threw them to the floor as you did the same, ripping off his loincloth finally freeing his hard cock. He quickly took you both to the ground, letting his body fall over yours spreading your legs wide for him. His head went down to your nipples again, rolling one by one in his mouth as his fingers went down to your pussy. He quickly swiped his thumb over your slit, searching for your clit and when he found it he began rubbing hard circles over your clit, making your squirm. You slipped one hand down and cupped his heavy balls giving them a light squeeze and tug, while your other hand pumped his cock, collecting the precum that beganleaking out of his swollen tip. He applied more pressure on your clit, rubbing fast and tight circles wanting to feel your cum over his hand. The feeling of his mouth sucking on your nipples and his fingers rubbing tight circles on your needy clit made you fall over the edge. You came biting down on his shoulder as you felt your legs shake, instinctively wrapping around his waist wanting more friction. As you came down from your high your hand came up to grip onto his shoulders. He took this chance and with one hand on his cock, he grabbed it from the base as he began sliding it over your wet cunt coating it with your slick. The feeling of his cock sliding over your clit began forming that familiar coil at the base of your belly as you bit down on your lip, not being able to take it anymore.Â
âPlease Neteyam, fill me with your cock.â You all but pleaded, as your hips began thrusting against his cock sliding over your clit having imagined this moment for years.
âOh I am gonna fill you up, I'm gonna cum in you. Gonna make sure I put a baby in you that is mine.â He said heatedly in your ear as he began teasing your entrance with the tip of his cock. You couldn't take it anymore and grabbed his cock with your hand as you guided the tip to your entrance. You gave him one final look and he pushed him inside you, and he followed your lead and slowly slid inch by inch. When he finally bottomed out you could feel his heavy sack lay against your ass perfectly, as if it was always meant to be like that. You quickly gave a small thrust indicating for him to move and thatâs all it took for him to start thrusting. He began by pulling out almost all the way, just slam back in you, causing your legs to tighten around his hips. He kept this hard rhythm of pulling out just to thrust back in, until your pussy clenching around him made him want more. He threw both of your legs over his shoulder and he began fucking you like a wild animal. The feeling of his veiny cock slipping in and out of your wet pussy was everything you had ever wanted. The slick collected from the both of you dripping down your ass, as his hips kept slamming into you. You couldnât help but reach your hand down rubbing tight circles on your clit wanting to feel yourself cum again. You began to feel your legs twitch as the head of his cock slipped over that spongy part inside of you over and over again. You used your free hand to reach down and you began tugging on his balls, feeling his cock twitch inside of you, ready to cum. As you sped up the circles on your clit your pussy began clenching around him, sucking him in even more. The tight circles on your clit, his throbbing cock inside of you, and sounds of your wet pussy all threw you over the edge. You came with a cry, clenching around his cock as you felt his hips lose control and his cock twitch inside of you. With three final hard thrusts, he came immediately after you, biting down on your shoulder with his fangs. You felt his hot white cum coat your insides in thick ribbons of cum as it slowly began to drip out of you down your ass, as he slowed his hips. He slowly leaned back, kneeling in between your legs as he pulled you all the way back laying your thighs over his wrapping your legs around his waist, with his cock still deep inside of you. He put you at angle so that your hips were tilted up as he collected the cum that leaked out as rubbed your clit slowly causing you to shiver.
âYou will give me a baby thatâs mine.â Is all he said as he leaned down kissing your lips softly and you couldn't help but moan into the kiss in agreement. After all, this is all you had been waiting for.

Pops would fucking hate you - Felix Catton x Masc!Reader
Pops would fucking hate you - Felix Catton x Masc!Reader
i had to rewrite this like 2 times,and i still dont like it but it is what it is
TW:Small fluff,Part-Nudity,Homophobia,Sexual theme meantions, cursing, smoking, meantion of alcohol,daddy issues(lol),overthinking
"My pops would fucking hate you"You humble out with a small smile,head layed on the cold wall,as you stare at the ceiling,feet slowly swinging in the air,sometimes hitting the bedframe, some old song playing in the background
"Oh really?Sounds a bit homophobic innit'?"Your boyfriend humbles back a small chuckle leaving his lips,as he tunes the tabs on his guitar which was in his lap
"that's probably the case"You sigh out,fidgeting with the half-smoked cig between your fingers
Your dad was never really the human rights guy,i mean he was a white middle aged cis straight man,he had no reason to be protesting and support as it doesn't affect him nor his family,or at least thats what he always said until,when you were 10 you and your guy best friend at the time were giggling about how would it feel like to be kissed,so you both find out with each other,it was just a small peck
And that would be just that but as your usual english walls,they were really fucking thin and your father in the other room could hear everything.he never told anyone or mention it to you,it was just the way he looked at you after you came in his room for a charger
The room falls silence for a moment,the guys voice on the record player starts again after instruments,not an awkward silence nor a comforting one.You put the cig between your lips and took a hit,feeling it go to your core,as you get goosebumps from the open window that none of you would bother closing,then you blew the smoke,out and watch it disappear into thin air
Felix stringing a few notes was the one who took you out of your own thoughts.âit doesnt matter,we fucking hate him either wayâThe boy snarks out,a small comforting smile on his face.This wasnt the first time you talked to Felix about your dad,you both went through the trauma dumping on the second date.You didnt know how to feel about your dad,i mean he was your father at the end of the day,and youve had mostly forgotten about him since you came to uni,but sometimes he would just appear in your mind.
âgood pointâYou look at felix,his tender smile,make every girl and boy melt.It was definitely an experience dating the heartthrob of Oxford.He was new to long term relationships so of course sometimes you'd argue about some stupid girl flirting with him at the local pub and he didn't try to stop her or anything,maybe he was a bit right,maybe you could be a bit jealous,but he doesn't need to know that you kinda agree with him on that
âI think my parents wouldn't believe me if i told them that im dating youâsaid felix,stroking a few strings on his guitar,like he was about to sing a love song.âi mean like..not even me dating but like dating someone amazing like youâHe says as he doesnt break his eye contact with the strings of the guitar,his smile could even be heard from his voice
âyeah sureâYou chuckle a bit at his statement,not convinced at all.You take another blunt from the cig.âits true,they probably think that im having sex with girls right nowâHe says,as he sits up more,looking at you blowing the smoke out of the cig.âi mean..you were in the start of the termâYou tease,with a small smirk,as you smear the cig on the glass cig dispenser,next to you on the small table
Felix scoffs,sassilyâwell that was at the start of the term,before i met you!âhe says,both of his eyebrows perked up as he leaned a beat closer,then let himself fall back on the pillows which were leaned on the frame of the bed.
A smirk on your face as you see your boyfriend get a bit worked upâi cant argue with thatâYou choose to not tease him this time with itâI think my dad knows that im fucking a boyâYou wonder,you knew that your dad.Felix hmâd in response,his attention on the guitar again
Silence fills between the two of you only the rain hitting the grass and the vinyls instruments filling up your ears,,as you look at the window,where the now very cold breeze was coming you see that it's raining,water coming on the edge of the window.felix's eyes follow your gaze and he puts the guitar next to you on the bed and gets up and closes the window,his shirt getting rain on it
You overthink a bit of what if he is now upset that you said that your fucking a boy,not actually dating one,Felix was sensitive despite his personality that he puts out,before you wanted to apologize he was taking his shirt off,his muscles beautiful,then he pulls his pants and boxer off in one go,grabbing a new pair of boxer which you guessed was his pajamas.its not like it was the first time you have seen him naked of course,but you cant help but admire everytime.
As Felix straightens up and you startâi'm sorryâYou whisper out,hoping you wouldn't have to repeat it,felix looks puzzledâfor what?âHe asks his voice soft as he walks back to the bed putting the guitar next to his nightstand,sitting down next to you also laying his back against the cold wall
âfor saying that i only have sex with youâYou mumble out, staring at your socks,as you rest your chin against your knees,he was much more than that to you,much more that you couldn't even put it to words.you wanted to prove it and continue your words but when you would start Felix,puts his hand on your back,with a comforting smileâi know you didn't mean it that wayâHe says,his eyes glimmering at you,like you were a the last drop of water on planet earth and he have been thirsting for over 1 month
You can't help but smile at his words,making you feel better that you didn't offend him,he never liked when you over thinked.You straighten your legs,then hug him,burying your face in his bare chest,he wrapped his arms around your body,kissing the hair on your head,with a smile,you can feel his fingers drawing shapes on your clothed back.You look up at him,faces close that you could still feel the cheap beer of his lips
âi love you so muchâHe whispers,it was easy for him to say that,like it was the most simple words in the words,with no meaning behind them.âi want to have you for the rest of my life,have a family and move into a small farm houseâHe says,his brown eyes tickling,as he stares into yours,you can't help but chuckle as a big smile washes on your faceâi know it's..like really early but i know,i feel itâFelix said.he had big plans,and you were one of them.
âi knowâŚi hope tooâYou say,voice shooting as you give a small peck to his lips,then his lips falls onto yours for a longer kiss,and you don't hesitate to kiss back,lips pressed together as you were 2 pieces of a puzzle.

we might be witnessing something
obviously we all know how much i love byler, and what im about to say is going to sound like âgen z walking away from the white house on fire with hayloft by mother mother playingâ but i have to speak my truth here- i think byler being canon will go FAR beyond the fandom and casual watchers of stranger things. we might literally be the early adopters of a pop cultural phenomenon that could go down in history as one of the most important moments in media history.
stranger things is a really bizarre phenomenon in the grand scheme of things, because it is SO famous. itâs popularity has been compared to shows like game of thrones, but it goes even beyond that, because EVERYONE watches it. iâve been watching it since i was eleven. my mom watches it. my uncles watch it. my best friend watches it. my grandma watches it. itâs viewership is so wide because there are so many aspects of it that appeal to so many different people. the impact this show has sent a song released forty years ago to number one on the charts practically overnight and it STILL plays on the top 40 radio to this day.
think about american politics as they are right now- weâre bearing witness to one of (if not THE) most important election in american history. the difference between trump and kamala is the difference between potential dystopia and nuclear fallout and peace and progressiveness. if trump wins, he will pull all of our aid from ukraine, letting russia push forward into western europe, and we all know what happens when a country tries to push into western europe. trumpâs agenda in project 2025 imposes potential laws that will take us back hundreds of years in lgbtq+ rights, rights for people of color, and womenâs rights. this election has caused a huge amount of dread and fear in the american people especially as the days push on. and what do people historically cling to in moments of fear like this? art.
think about music during the vietnam war, movies like âred dawnâ during the cold war, or mccarthyism during world war two. when people are afraid of the real world, they tend to turn to popular media for escapism. weâre already seeing it, as ridiculous as it sounds, in things like brat summer or the debate edits to chappell roan songs. it might not seem like itâs happening because everything about it is different today in the digital age versus sixty years ago when tvs were boxes, but it is. this is only the beginning. and with the release of the next stranger things season, itâs possible that it could only grow more.
picture this: itâs next july. trump has been sworn in as 47th president of the united states and is six months into his second term. thereâs already talks of him overturning obergefell v. hodges (the supreme court ruling that gave us gay marriage), thereâs now a nationwide abortion ban, and political opponents of his are slowly seeming to disappear and go inactive. but hey! the 2020âs most beloved tv show is airing its last season this week.. itâs an easy way for us all to feel nostalgia about a time (wether that be the 80s or summer 2019) when our country was progressing forward instead of so drastically backwards as it is now, or to just watch a cool sci-fi show with one of the highest viewerships of any show ever, second only to game of thrones. everyone is turning on their tvs at midnight to watch these new episodes and suddenly- the main couple consisting of the two main characters of the show breaks up, the boy leaving the girl for his childhood best friend, whom he has been in love with for years but been forced to ignore because of the way society views gay people?
and everyone is seeing this, even 40+ y/o homophobes who watch the show for the nostalgia factor and never suspected a thing. the public is outraged. fox news is going on about the gay agenda. but the shock of the news is turning heads. people are changing their minds because⌠people being gay actually hasnât only been a thing for the last ten years??! gay people might not actually be lesser humans? ANYBODY CAN BE GAY? what is happening! we know everyone watches this, so people of all backgrounds all across the world and more specifically the country are reacting to this in different ways. but no matter how you look at it, everyone is talking about it. itâs all over everyoneâs for you page, SNL is parodying it, anderson cooper is talking about it on CNN, trump is denouncing it on twitter, thereâs a push for it to be banned in florida.
suddenly, the democrats are picking up on this, because isnât this everything weâve been fighting for this whole time put at the forefront of a mainstream show? this is forcing everyone to confront the implications of having a gay ship be the focal point of a show with the viewership of stranger things, and the democratic party and itâs supporters pick up on this, turning it into a symbol and essentially a martyr of the party as a whole. whatever song (and you know there will be a song) thatâs used in the scene where byler becomes official is immediately topping the charts. people are walking around wearing t shirts with byler quotes on them like weâre seeing now with the kamala brat t shirts. hundreds of people are influenced by it and we may even see an increase in support for politicians who advocate specifically for gay rights or are gay themselves.
this all happens because when people who are being spotlighted by pop culture speak out, everybody hears it. itâs the same reasoning behind why an endorsement from taylor swift could outright win kamala this election. a huge part of our population has quiet beliefs that theyâre just waiting to dive into until somebody in mainstream media tells them that itâs a good idea. in making byler cannon, stranger things could be changing the trajectory of popular culture and american politics as a whole for years to come. itâs all about the domino effect. if people see this, all it does is open a gateway for other stories and conversations to happen, because something so outrageous as making byler canon during the early stages of project 2025 will turn the heads of every politically inclined person in america, from every maga cap wearing trucker to every blue haired barista, and when heads are turned things are changed.

masterlist
You closed your laptop after finishing the worst term paper you ever wrote. It was submitted and there's nothing you could do about it. You looked at the time, it was midnight and Frankie should be arriving home any minute.
Any minute the man you want should walk through that door and talk to you and then dismiss you from watching his daughter Isabel. Then you would just go home and fantasize about Frankie kissing you and professing his feelings for you, telling you that everything you have been feeling is not one-sided. The late-night talks, the flirting, and the small touches you shared are all not in your head.Â
The door opened and Frankie quickly closes it behind him, taking off his shoes and throwing his jacket on the couch.
"Sorry I wanted to be home earlier but Benny just kept dragging us from bar to bar." Frankie sighs and sits right next to you, he takes off his hat and his fingers brush through his dark hair. You could smell alcohol and his cologne, it was an all too familiar smell of him.
"Don't apologize, I like being here," You smiled at him and move your laptop onto the coffee table. Frankie scoots closer to you and his arm rests on the back of the couch, you fell back into your spot and let yourself feel his arm touching your shoulders.Â
"I like you being here," Frankie wasn't lying, he liked coming home to you and seeing you so at home, seeing you take good care of his little girl. He enjoyed that you stay past your time and talk with him, he could see that you wanted to spend time with him, and it was never forced.
Frankie was scared at first when he realized that you had a crush on him since you were just 22. He never saw himself as desirable until you would say 'You look good' before he would leave for the night. Your eyes ate him up every time you would see him, it gave him such a boost of confidence.Â
Frankie turned his body towards you and liked how you looked in the dim light from the lamp. You looked into his eyes and then at his lips, you loved how his bottom lip was bigger than his top lip.
You loved his mustache accompanied by the scruff along his jaw. Frankie cups your cheek and his thumbs softly caress your skin and tug the bottom of your lip. You let out a pathetic whimper and the sound made his member stir in his cargo pants.Â
"Can I kiss you, pretty girl?" Frankie's voice shook as he asked the question. You swallowed hard and couldn't believe the words that left his lips.
"Please," you whispered like you weren't trying to wake yourself up from what you think is a dream. Frankie chuckles at how well-mannered you always have been.
Frankie sits back and pulls you onto his lap, your legs fall naturally on the sides of his thighs. Your arms were thrown around his neck, his hands resting on your hips. Frankie presses his lips so lightly against yours like it is a whisper of the feeling of his skin on yours. You press just as lightly against his lips.Â
The next move came from Frankie, he smashed his lips into yours. You give back the same kind of hunger. You bit down on his lip earning a moan from his throat. No one had to coax the other into the kiss.
His tongue glides against your bottom wanting to explore your mouth, his hands slide to the globes of your ass gripping hard. You moan at the sensation of his hands on your ass. His tongue invades as the moan left your lips. Your hands grab the ends of his curls, tugging them while you grind down on him.Â
Frankie broke the kiss to admire your swollen lips and the look in your eyes. You shook your head at him and continued to play with his hair.
"Let's take this to the bedroom," Frankie said, you got off his lap and he takes your hand to lead you to his room.
You sat on your knees against the bed while Frankie tried to shut the door as quietly as possible trying not to wake his daughter who is down the hall sound asleep. He looked at how you were sitting on his bed, the way your thighs were slightly spread apart while you sat on your knees. He knew he had to bury his head between your soft thighs.Â
You smiled at him with doll-like eyes, just big and bright. Frankie stalked his way to you, leaning down to take your lips between his once again.
His fingers played with the thin straps of your dress, he pushed them off your shoulders. The touch of his fingers danced back up to your collarbone. You shudder at his touch along your skin.
"Can I taste you?" Frankie asks while he lays you down and climbs on top of you, the hem of your dress falling to your hips showing off the black lace thong you picked out for the night.
"Yes," you hummed, he could feel the wetness pool in the small piece of lace as he pulled them down your plush thighs, he tucks your thong in his back pocket.Â
You let out a moan at the sight of him pocketing your panties. Frankie lowers himself down to your naked heat,
"Fuck, baby, you have such a pretty pussy," he groans as he took in your scent and the way you were dripping for him. His fingers part your lips and collect your wetness with his tongue,
"Oh-oh god, Frankie," you arch your back off the bed as his tongue dives into your core, the bridge of his nose bumping against your throbbing clit. He replaces his tongue with his thick fingers into your heat, curling them and then fucking you with them. His mouth lays open mouth kisses the skin around your clit before sucking on where you needed him most.Â
Your fingers fly to his hair, pulling hard on his dark locks. You bit your lip trying to keep your moans from escaping. You couldn't trust your mouth with keeping them in. Frankie stares directly into your eyes as he looked too beautiful as he was going down on you.
"You're so pretty," You cried out while your pussy clenched around his digits, he hummed against your core, and you loved how his mustache was adding more desirable friction to your clit.
"Cum on my tongue, pretty girl," He said before his tongue dives inside your cunt once more, he drinks from you like it was wine, and your body listened to his command. Your sweetness flooded his tongue, he knew your cum would taste so sweet.Â
"That's my pretty girl," Frankie praises you while he continued his assault on your sensitive clit.
Your thighs kept trembling as you rode out your high on his fingers. Frankie kisses his way up to your lips, he brings his lips to yours and shares with you how sweet you tasted on his tongue.
"I need you right now," you fumbled with his belt and unzipped his pants, his clothes discarded to the floor.
Frankie pulled the top of your dress down for your breasts to spill out. Frankie takes one nipple into his mouth and kneads your other breasts. You throw your head back and your hips buckled needing friction.Â
Frankie leaves open-mouth kisses along your collarbone, he guides his cock along your slit and pushes in the bit past his tip.
"You feel like heaven," he moans pushing himself into your aching pussy. You mewled when you looked down at his cock disappearing inside of you, filling you completely.
"Look at my pretty girl taking my cock so well," Frankie smirked, he pulls himself out almost all the way out and then slammed back into your core.
You smiled as Frankie frantically thrusts into you so deep you could feel him in your stomach.
"You're so big," you whimpered, Frankie drunk in the way your tits bounced with each thrust, his hands gripped your hips for leverage trying to fuck so deep into you.
Frankie's moans were like whines as he wanted to look at your face but also your cunt milking his length.Â
"I-I'm gonna cum, sweet girl, where? where?" his thrusts were becoming sloppy but still hard and deep. Your hands fist the bedsheet, you could feel the tight knot in your stomach come undone.
"I want you to fill me up, baby," You threw your head back as you came undone beneath him, your walls clenched around him. Your words and the way your velvet walls milked his cock had him releasing hot ropes inside of you.Â
His cum was leaking out of you as he fucked into you. Frankie's hand grabs your face as he rode out both your highs. You had a cock drunk smile painted on your face, he moaned at how much he loved the look on your face
. "You like that? You like my cock filling you up, pretty girl?" Frankie whispered, he rests his forehead on yours.
"Yes, I do, baby," you said out of breath, he pulls out of you and laid down beside bringing you into his arms.
"Stay the night," Frankie mumbled trying to keep himself awake.
"I'd love to." You kiss his chest before you both drifted to sleep.Â
-
The sun came through the blinds, and you slid out of bed and readjusted your dress from the night before. You climbed back into bed and nestled yourself back into his arms.
"Good morning, pretty girl," Frankie's voice was low and groggy from sleep, you smiled up at him loving how he sounded first waking up.
"Morning," you hummed as you traced shapes on his sternum. You basked in the morning glow before heading to take a shower.Â
Frankie gave you his blue button up from his closet and a pair of his boxers. He brought you back to bed and laid there before having to face the day. The door swings open and Isabel runs to find you trying to hide from her.
"Daddy, you had a sleepover?!" she exclaimed as she looked at you, he laughs and sets her between you and Frankie.
You both looked at each other and shrugged, Isabel started to ask why she wasn't invited and how mad she was at her dad for not letting you sleep in her room because sleepovers are for girls.
"Bel, Daddy is very sorry, how can I make it up to you?" You watched him hold her and just listen to her babble.Â
Your heart ached at how sweet he was with her,
"You let me have ice cream for breakfast," the deal was said and done, you spent the morning with them and it felt like this was supposed to be an everyday thing.Â

A long examination of Amy and her character treatment.
This was initially a YouTube comment lol.
I truly loved the Sonic x dub cast but it really always came down to an issue of script and possibly the voice director. It always stung to me how much vitriol Amy used to get and while I like how she is better treated (being more recognized as one of the core 4), I do miss the sassiness she was given in the 00s. Sonic is meant to be kinda edgy and often in the anime heâs portrayed with immature traits because heâs a teenager, Amy often was the counterpart to that, a modern posh girl who was stubborn about what she wanted but not solely defined by that. I donât think it was revolutionary but I do think compared to the Japanese ideal woman, Amy would be more akin with trickled down gyaru culture (Mat[ure] gal, something in line with the image of posh spice). Itâs unfortunate that headstrong translated probably somewhat to boy crazy and desperate to an English audience and where Sonicâs immaturity was toned down removing that feeling they were on the same level. Often my biggest issue with her modern voice is she comes off as a knock off mini mouse (more so in the earlier games with her current English VA).
Maybe ironic is it sounds more alike to her Japanese portrayal which also ironically Iâm very conflicted about since it somewhat aligns her more with cream age wise. But what I do like about it is the difference in character portrayal. If I were to guess Segaâs stance on Sonic and Amy it would be two people loosely dating, similar in the way Mickey and Minnie are a couple but that validity fluidly changes depending on the situational need. Keep in mind that Amyâs first portrayal is as a version of Sonicâs girlfriend. Given that there was apparently a valentineâs plush bouquet of the two I think to some degree theyâre meant to be as such. When it comes to the Adventure era to just before generations, the context of this relationship is greatly changed between languages. American Sonic often gave off the feeling of a laid back but heroic guy who puts up with a girl because he is too kind and sheâs too pushy. And I think even just the voice direction plays into that perception because of how they sound a different maturity than the Japanese portrayal. In Japanese, Sonic is often more playful and less uncomfortable than he sounds in English. A great example is adventure 1âs park segment when Amy gets excited for free couple entry, in English Sonic is clearly annoyed and calling her a pain while in Japanese heâs caught off guard but going along with it. Iâve only just been digging into the Sonic X sub but the comparisons I see give off more the feeling that Amy is casually dating Sonic and regularly fighting with him to take her on dates (gonna point to Goku and chichi in this case). He cares about her enough to go to her place first at the end of the first season but reflexively avoids responsibility, sheâs the scary girlfriend always mad at him. Specifically pointing back to episode 52âs ending, they use a song associated with specially the relationship between Amy and Sonic that also is explicitly romantic (and in terms of the song presumably reciprocated) when she asks him to tell her He loves her and the lip flaps of his unheard response *could* match up to âAishiteruze Amyâ (my conjugation isnât that good and google isnât helpful but to me vague knowledge a more casual masculine way to say I love you) and a white rose which symbolizes âchaste loveâ.
Ultimately I read their relationship being Amy trying to find compromise with Sonicâs free spirit. Theyâre by no means official and probably never will be because itâs not in Sonicâs priority (in his game portrayal). The most I think that would ever become of him being with someone would be almost completely out of the picture and light hearted at best.( But that is also due to him eternally being 15/16 as for now. ) Amy trying to get him to spend time with her and show some reciprocation is I think all Sonic X Amy is looking for. But going back to my thoughts on why Amy got so much backlash for the longest time is I donât not think the first wave of Sonic fans in America understood that. The image of who Sonic is was completely treated different and even before Amy (who you could technically call the second character created in game universe) could appear stateside, the U.S. already created the answer that âYes, Sonic is interested in romance and here is the type of girl he likes.â My feelings toward Sally always lie in, I did not hate Sally but I hated the way fans pointed to Sally as the reason to hate Amy. It doesnât help that when Amy was introduced, she was defined by being young, bratty and blind to Sonic not loving her back. She was the little sister trying to steal your boyfriend and the age gap they share was even more so focused on. Even with just the English dub of Sonic media, it was leaning into the concept that boys should feel disgusted at the ideas of romance that isnât as prominent in Japanese media. It paints the picture to the average 90s Sonic fan that âAmy will never be his type because heâs more interested in a cool mature girl like Sally.â Of course the same comic that particularly created that shipping divide collapsed leaving Amy once again to be the sole main girl that now had a fandom known for hating her. Already doing a whole reset with Colors on scaling back the grand stories and cast, by the next time we really saw her in generations she was justâŚâŚ.dainty. I remember being very effected by her Disney princess hand posing in Lost World. To be honest she hasnât been that deeply tied into any mainline stories too much, at least not in her modern styling but to also be fair, Iâm trying to enjoy Forces despite being late to the game (There was a decade gap of buying a major console) and while I have seen pretty much the full extent of her rep in Frontiers, Iâm holding off on dream team currently(also want to play the murder of Sonic on my own time). From the way I look at it, this has lead mainly western media to define her character and often working off said issues that previously arose with her portrayal. As much as I love Sonic Boom, I see Amyâs straight forward pursuit to awkward denial of even feeling that way as nothing less than an absolute failure of her character. That mixed with making her the âThe girl annoyed with the boys because sheâs just so much more smarter and sophisticated than themâ just switching her to a different girly stereotype that ultimately pacified her, then further extending into prime emphasizing how nature loving she is in a way that again really just feels like a Disney princess cliche. Ultimately sheâs become âThe nurturing homebody who is a little annoyed at the brutish guys sheâs around and doesnât want to address having feelings for her guy friend because that would just bother him.â Maybe it's just aging to that point but its come to a girl minimizing herself is more frustrating that a girl obsessed with a guy. I get why they chose to pivot her in that way but it often also feels directionless.
Actually looking back at all the media that sparked this, even Sonic X doesn't feel that bad as she was made out to be. Granted I'm only a 7th of the way in but she's not often making a huge deal about sonic as much as sonic is the heavy hitter especially with knuckles gone and he's not taking his duties seriously. But it's also interesting to try and see what's going on in the Japanese dubs of the games now that I also have a decent hold on the Japanese language. Sonic adventure 2 gives the impression of her being a part of the crew just constantly not caught up in what's going on. Naturally she'd be invested getting her beloved out of prison but he is so tied up in what's going on that he (and tails) don't stop to fill her in before she's also a wanted criminal. Notably as well, when the island is set to explode, where sonic says "I got to warn the others!" Others is addressed as "Amy-tachi". The word the Japanese use for we is "Watashitachi" which is the word for I with Tachi denoting people with them (watashi can also be replaced with of pronouns if you don't use watashi). It took my by surprise that between tails and Amy, sonic refers to any instead. Something about Japanese sonic makes Amy feel more a part of the group and part of me cries the many ways English sonic fans did not get it.
Edit: I have now played The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog and the writing team GETS Amy. I'm starting to wonder if Amy's Disney princessness is due to most of the media being kids shows right now and this was a steam game (mainly aimed at an older crowd). What's best is if plays well into the whole "Sonic is a bad boyfriend" concept I was talking about, he forgets her cake and is panicked. But Amy is also much more aligned with her old portrayal, she's excited and a little hot headed. Clearly she's had to organize a lot but also lavishes in it being her birthday. She doesn't over obsess on Sonic but she's definitely happy that he supposedly brought her cake and she gets to avenge his "murder". At the same time she's happy to be with all of her friends who clearly care enough to go along with this, even people you wouldn't expect like rouge and shadow. I know Blaze travelling dimensions is a joke but yeah it is crazy she did that for Amy who I think she only really knows though the Olympic games(I've only just started Rush). A murder mystery feels also such a good take for her, it's something extravagant but also a little occultish. Aligns really well with someone into tarot.

thinking about how sonic becomes immortal in UltiSpawn AU and how he has had to come to terms with the fact that heâll stop aging and heâll watch as his friends slowly wither like flowers, but shadow has already come to terms with this and now heâll eventually help sonic start to process everything that comes with immortality, including the grief.
so basically thereâs this huge explosion (Iâm thinking itâs in a very deserted area or island where a fight takes place. both sonic and shadow are there (idk about anyone else))
but this explosion went off and shadow was going to be okay, but Sonic wouldnât. just before the explosion reached him Sonic mustered up what chaos energy he could from the chaos emeralds to go super. but it was like just in the nick of time. so because of that it just barely saved him from death.
he was in critical condition after this. in and out of a coma. I think he even flatlined once. all his friends fear he wouldnât make it, watching him nearly die more than once was hard on all of them. they never thought theyâd see such a bright and unstoppable force be reduced to this.
so I said Sonic was in and out of a coma but when he was comatose it would be for days or weeks on end, waking up for brief spells, maybe a day or two, and then his condition worsened and heâd either fall into the coma again or have to be placed into one medically.
Iâm thinking that the blast was something incredibly dangerous to his system idk if it was a influx of chaos energy or maybe something more deadly. something that shadow can withstand but regular mobians cannot and that why he was struggling.
but I digress, while sonic was comatose thatâs when shadow would visit. he would chaos control into the room, late at night, and heâd sit down and talk.
heâd just talk for hours, all while sonic laid their silently. the beeping of the machines he was hooked up to grating on shadowâs ears and the sight of sonic making his heart ache even before he understood his own feelings. heâd look at sonic sadly, quietly begging in his heart for him to wake up.
idk how yet, but I feel that shadow feels responsible (somewhat or fully) for sonicâs condition and he visits to ease up the guilt on his conscience (but also because heâs worried- no, heâs scared)
shadow would ramble. telling sonic about the missions heâd take on with team dark, all the way to stupid things like how rouge called omega a toaster oven and omega proceeded to say he couldnât toast anything. anything to just keep talking to him, even if he wouldnât respond back.
shadow wants sonic to wake up and he hates having to leave for another night, but he keeps coming back, and yet he stays away when sonic does regain consciousness. because the guilt still eats at him.
itâs only when sonic starts to stabilize that he notices he feels different, and when tails examines sonicâs energy levels and his body back at his lab, that they confirm he is not the same.
letâs just say thatâŚ. Sonic doesnât take it well initially.
how could he when all of a sudden nothing would be the same. every face looking at him after the revelation would soon be nothing but a memory. and heâd be there, left alone.
seeing tailsâs face was the last straw and he ran off in a fit. shadow spotted him, and he knew he mustâve discovered what heâd become. something shadow could already tell by the matching energy levels and frequencies they now shared. things would never be the same, and the wind was about to blow everything Sonic ever knew away at any moment.
this songâs vibe fits this for me

I got permission to expand on this idea, so I'm gunna share my thoughts and what I came up with regarding this cool idea. I got the concept of this from the OP of the previous post, @coveredinsoot , so credits goes to them. I used he/him for the Yan, and they/them for the Darling so all readers can enjoy. I haven't written something like this in ages. Forgive me.
TW: Yandere themes(obv), mentions of drug use(non consentual), minor mentions of sexual themes, not proofread very well I wrote this first thing in the morning. I hadn't even gotten out of bed lmao
-A recap of my tags in the previous post, my idea followed the premise of a yan whose darling is an employee working under the record label/idol agency(whichever one you prefer) he is signed onto. They could have a position working somewhat in the same sphere as their Yan. My first thought was maybe a touring staff, but I felt specifically that they could be a photographer who was hired solely to work under Yans label.
-They do the shooting for promos, they participate in the creation of music videos, go on tours to get photos at concerts, etc. They work alongside Yan, but rarely interact outside of the professional setting. Darling has a job they have to do, and getting personal with the artist they're assigned to work under is a risky thing, so they choose to keep their casual interactions to a minimal to avoid scandals.
-While Darling is putting their attention all into their career, Yan is forced to get his unrequited feelings out via music. Filling notebooks after notebooks with sickingly sweet words, turning them into lyrics that get pumped out to fans, who all imagine themselves as the reciever of such romantic tales of woe.
-Yan constantly sneaks details about his Darling into his music, from mentioning small physical traits on their body like the color of their hair and eyes, to maybe even scars and birthmarks no one would or should know unless they've seen them partially or fully naked. They would constantly bring up traits revolving around the Darlings personality most of the time, but no matter how many details they place in their songs, it just seems to go over Darlings head
-Yan constantly asks Darling what their thoughts are on his new music, hoping to one day see their eyes light up and realize they were the center of all his music and finally return his feelings, but Darling only ever gives vague compliments to him, telling him his music is great but really never delves to deep into the lyrics or sound.
-Yan finally comes to terms, after watching over his Darling for months, maybe even years, the Darling just never gives his music an actual proper chance, and that's why they never pick up on all the lyrics that would eerily describe them to a T. Yan decides to be a bit more risky, and take his lovey dovey songs into more darker territory.
-Its an obvious switch. Going from themed albums that would have him in more colorful attire and poppy beats, to more darker fashion and seductive tones. Clearly the Cloud 9, cutesy romance didn't do the trick, so maybe he could lure his Darling in with a more mature persona.
-Lyrics become much more sexual in nature, singing of long nights underneath the covers, decorating each others skin in marks, all the things that gets the crowds riled up. He isn't afraid to drop hints/details about kinks he picked up that his Darling seemed to be interested in(well at least that's what Darlings search history says).
-His fame skyrockets after the new change, and he sees his Darling has started to pick up a bit of an interest in his music(fucking finally). They notice a little bit of how Yan seems to keep a certain image of someone within his lyrics. Mentions of the same hair color(and if Darlings one to dye their hair, will even mention the change in hair color in the song(s), same eye color, same attributes both physically and personality wise. But despite that, Darling still hadn't gotten deep enough into the music to put the puzzle pieces together. Though they did make a joke about how much they related to this mystery person from the small amount of details they picked up.
-Yan definitely had to bite his tongue and hold his hands behind his back to keep from exploding after hearing that. So damn close, his Darling is right fucking there, the density this Darling had was driving Yan up the wall, but he'd be lying if he said he didn't find a little excitement in it. At this point he done already turned it into a game.
-The music just gets darker from there, and while the crowds of unwavering loyal fans eat up each word like its their last meal, Darling is finally becoming suspicious. Not just from the odd lyrics Yan has been singing, but also behaviors being exhibited behind the curtains. Around the first change in sound, when Yan took his music down a darker route, Yan had begun being more pushy with spending more time with his Darling. Following them around like a lost puppy between photoshoots. Trying his damnest to get Darling to hang out with him outside of work. Throwing parties just in an attempt to get Darling out of their professional persona around him. Constantly buying them things, showing up out of no where to chat with them, it was overwhelming.
-It was only getting worse, especially since Yan was beginning to slip up and say things about Darling that he shouldn't know. Afterall, Darling never told him such things. Coupled that with the fact that his lyrics in his new album sing of kidnapping and basements and a whole bunch of stuff that aren't at all romantic anymore, Darling is getting wary. They can't seem to go anywhere without this nagging feeling they weren't alone and something was wrong. They even begin looking into changing to a different label or becoming an independent photographer just to get away from overwhelming nature of their Yan.
-And Yan picks up on it. He realizes he isn't winning them over like this anymore, and he's now down to his last resort. He's always been a tad sadistic, even in the beginning he had a bit of joy daydreaming about kidnapping Darling and having them caged in his awfully large mansion, only having Darling ever see and hear from him. He's spent many hours in bed imagining ways to condition and brainwash Darling into relying on him, maybe even getting them so reliant on Yan that he'd be able to have them follow him once again on tours just so they could always be together every waking moment of their lives.
-But to get to that point, he was going to have to start at step 1.
1. Throw a party. At this point they had become common, as this was something he used in the past to get Darling to come out and spend time with him. He'd use the same excuse he's used in the past. He wants his favorite photographer to come and take amazing photos of the party so he can put them on his Instagram for bragging rights.
2. Get them chilled out. Darling never drinks alcohol at these parties. They have an expensive camera they need to protect, and taking decent camera shots require a steady hand. So Yan will make his own concoction for Darling. Darling only said they won't drink alcohol, they never mentioned anything else...
3. Take them out of the crowd and into a more quiet... secluded area of the house. They were never big on parties, its so easy to get overwhelmed, and now they're drowzy and stumbling over themselves and their words. Can't even stand up let alone walk. They clearly need some rest. Luckily Yan has everything they need to keep them comfortable. Now that they've finally made it home they can rest easy on their new bed while Yan finishes up closing down the party for the night.
4. Now a new life can be started. One much more suited to Yans taste. A life his amazing music has sung tales of since the day Yan fell in love...
