I'm agree with your meta about gods ready to take choice away from the family who worksips Father. And how it's bad and kinda comfirm what father accuses Heaven to do.
But does Father really care for this family, does he really see them as egal? He sees people as tools (Yato, Nora, Yukine, ect..), he abused his own child (Yato, Nora) and manipules them into thinking that that's love, as soon that someone isn't agree with him anymore, he resort to manipulation, abuse and violence and sometime murder. He helped to plot Bishamon murder/forced reincarnation (failed) and planned Ebisu forced reincarnation to take the koto (sucess). He doesn't care how much people, shinkis or gods suffer or die as long he has what he want.
Ebisu and Take face a choice right. But do they have really a choice in the matter? Father can't be stopped otherwhise. He's dangerous. He says that he wanted to strike gods but doesn't care how much humans will suffer in the way. What he did with Yukine and the net was not good (for me it was a kind of brainwashing).
Yes they were ready to took the choice away and that's bad, tht's what Father accuse the gods of. but i think that they didn't see any other choice they weren't happy about it. They come with the idea to destroy a grave only.
It's not like if Father was benevolent, sadly because then this choice woudn't happen. Even if the godness of sun herself treated him a a child doing a tantrum, he's very dangerous.
Yeah all is a matter of choice. A horrible and unfair choice. Yato would have cut the bounds against their will, but Take can't do that.
The gods had the choice to kill the familly and cut the way to come back to life of Father, or leave them and having a dangerous guy causing havoc and destruction, and not only to gods but to humanity too (i mean with what happen in the last chapters, the gods face a even worst choice to protect humanity from Father's plan). What they could have done? It's not like if they had more time to think about it.
And this choice is horrible. And Take and Ebisu weren't happy to have this choice to do. And i'm happy that they didn't need to kill them. Take himself said that he felt bad to have manipuled the old man into make him believe that they would do the soul ritual after his death (they can't since they're gods) but they needed to cut father's way to come back again and again, because nothing else can stop him.
what do you think?
It's not a critic of your meta, i just wanted to share my thougths with you about the whole situation =)
(in reference to this post)
i agree with some of your points, but i donât think whether father cared specifically for that family or not is pertinent to the situation. he cares (and i use that term lightly) about humanity in general, not specific people, similarly to how gods do (tenjin saying âgods are incapable of loving humansâ lives in my brain bc it applies to all gods, but also to father and that could tie into âbecoming what you hateâ but i digress!). he uses yato, mizuchi and yukine as tools, though i believe he does love them (or at least, he believes he loves them) in his own semi-fucked up way. he holds anger towards gods and their associates for holding up and reinforcing heavenâs system, which father perceives as fundamentally unfair and wrong, so i donât think him planning the murder/reincarnation of gods really speaks to whether or not he cares about humanity. to father, gods and humans are completely separate entities, and what he does to one isnât necessarily what heâd do to the other. every âwrongâ or âmorally reprehensibleâ or âshittyâ thing weâve seen him do has been to gods, shinki, or associates of gods like hiyori, which likely makes him lump them into a single category. even if hiyoriâs human, he still canât see her as anything more than someone associated with heaven (+ him not caring about specific humans, just humanity in general)
ebisu and takemikazuchi just having and considering the choice of whether or not to kill/sever the ties of that family proves them to be what father believes all gods are, regardless of intentions. and really, i think intent is the least important part of this discussion! itâs the fact that gods are above humans in pretty much every possible way, and they can use that power as they see fit, because âa godâs decision is always the right oneâ. itâs about the fact that ebisu and takemikazuchi (and any god, for that matter) can takes lives, sever ties, and completely alter the life of humans with zero consequences. itâs about the fact that the humans have no input on a decision that can permanently alter their lives, and how they most likely wonât even realize what was taken away, or will forget, due to the separation of the near and far shore (think hiyori completely forgetting about yato and yukine when yato goes back to father despite the fact that they changed her and her life).
itâs a morally gray situation, and arguments can be made for either side. if gods are so above humanity, why are they incapable of stopping a human like father? if heaven isnât unjust, why should kind people like that family have to suffer? does heaven not fully take father seriously specifically because he is, or was, human and isnât on their level? should takemikazuchi and ebisu even be able to consider that choice, and not have to tell the people affected? does them feeling guilty absolve them of the fact that they manipulated a human, a being who is supposed to be beneath them, yet theyâre supposed to serve? are the humans in the wrong for calling father again and again? should they even be judged by heavenâs standards if they donât know the whole situation? does the situation absolve takemikazuchi and ebisu of the cycle, or are they perpetuating it anyway? should ebisu and takemikazuchi be judged for perpetuating the cycle when itâs all theyâve ever known and theyâre products of a system? do the ends justify the means? like i wrote in the tags of that post, the immediate dilemma of the situation was the question of whether their needs (killing father) were worth taking a choice (without consent) from someone else, and if it was an okay to do it if the affected party wouldnât even realize that a choice was taken away. and this, of course, can lead to bigger discussions like this one jaja
itâs a super complicated situation and an argument can be made for either side, and thatâs at the core of the manga itself, which i love! thanks for sharing your thoughts! i love discussing noragami <33
#long post#noragami#meta#my posts#what i love abt noragami is that its themes and discussions can have many different interpretations#and none are necessarily right or wrong#and i love that the characters weâre rooting for are placed in morally gray situations that forces them (and the audience) to think#idk i just love this manga yall#anon#asks

Ship bias !!
âĄď¸ "Ship Bias" âĄď¸ - @quiiscnt
A ship that kinda came up from the past and got to almost hyperfixation levels over the past few days has been Laxus and Mystogan.
My insane ramblings under the cut: tl;dr: It Makes Sense, Kinda
At the time Mystogan first showed up/Laxus first met him, Laxus had probably either just gotten S-Class or was close to that level -- Ivan had already been kicked out, and he and Makarov were at odds. His being able to resist the sleep spell Mystogan used, much like his grandfather, meant that he was actually able to meet this stranger, and he was fascinated. This person that went to such great lengths -- and used such strong magics -- just to hide his presence...for what?
It's one of very few relationships in Laxus's life where he took the first step. He reached out first, out of sheer curiosity, wanting to know more about this intentionally mysterious stranger. There were misgivings on Mystogan's side, of course, knowing what he knew -- but he could also see through Laxus's tough-guy act pretty easily. This teenager was hurting, though suggesting as much could easily get you fried, and he would never admit it but he was seeking someone to actually be close to after losing pretty much everyone else he'd had. His mother was dead, his father gone, his grandfather separated by a rift he was slowly realizing would always be there, the Raijinshuu hadn't quite been formed yet. He'd turned his back on his friends to focus on his own training, keeping everyone at arm's length, and now that'd backfired.
The two grew close, cautiously at first, and then over time trust grew as well. Laxus knew there was something off about Mystogan's magics, knew that at least part of it came from the staves on his back -- but he didn't know the whole story. He knew nothing of Edolas or Mystogan's purpose on Earthland for a long time, save Mystogan once telling him very basic info on Anima and that they had to be closed, but not why. Laxus learned that Mystogan had a counterpart on Earthland (phrased simply as "in this world," which was not entirely unusual for his way of speech) named Jellal that was not seen in a positive light around this time, as well. The two would often meet up between jobs and training, sharing long conversations about any number of topics somewhere out of sight of the rest of the guild. Laxus seemed intent on no one knowing he and Mystogan were acquainted at all, and after some time spent around him the answer became clearer -- Laxus didn't want to lose him to Fairy Tail, like he'd lost all else. ( Laxus even went out of his way to track down and buy a staff for him -- one that contained magic, instead of just serving as a focus -- and it ended up being one of the staves Mystogan used during Fantasia, which was carried with him to Edolas when he worked to return Fairy Tail and Magnolia to Earthland. )
There was definitely a period close to the time before the Battle of Fairy Tail where Laxus had been playing around, when he was intentionally trying to piss others off at any opportunity, experimenting with vices and finding most just didn't work, for him. When he was letting himself get angry, and wanting to drag others to that same level. But when they spent time together, Mystogan saw what most would consider his 'true colors' -- the heart behind all that anger. He saw a softer side that had been locked away since his mother's death, to shield himself from further pain. About two months before the Battle of Fairy Tail, the two came to a semi-unspoken agreement -- Laxus stopped his meaningless hookups, more committed to whatever unnamed thing was between the two, and Mystogan had resolved to, at some point, explain in more detail what was going on with him and the eventuality that would come for him. Then Laxus kicked off the 'fighting festival,' words were spoken, identities revealed, and, once again, Laxus felt everything being ripped away from him.
Except one. Despite what had happened, despite the words said, Mystogan showed himself in the alleyways after Laxus had left the Fantasia parade, reaching out himself for the first time. It was a moment he'd intended to come clean, to explain everything -- but, seeing the state the man was in, he tabled the matter. He needed support, not the news someone else was leaving. In some verses this interaction could end in a kiss, but portrayal dependence and all that applies to all of this ofc.
Laxus explained the terms of his removal from the guild, and Mystogan offered comfort and support, but it did not last long -- as the crowds started to disperse, a familiar sense of panic hit, one they hadn't felt in a while. No one could see them together, right?
Both vanished via their magics, and that was potentially the last time they ever saw each other. Laxus did not learn of the events on Edolas until the return from Tenrou, and then once the Grand Magic Games kicked off, he was asked to help Jellal blend in as his old friend for the sake of an investigation. Fun times.
The sad, doomed-from-the-start sort of relationship that simultaneously reminds him he can be soft again while also ensuring he's paranoid of ever letting that wall down again. :')
#;;prayers answered { asks }#;;light rain { ooc }#;;mythos { headcanons }#this got to be Very long but I have so many feelings about how things turned out??? augh. ]#even if it's not necessarily a romance and they're just good friends; the idea of him learning of his being in Edolas and then just]#'hey can you help this guy who looks right but smells and acts and sounds ENTIRELY wrong pretend to be your old friend thanks' ]#and none of them KNOW how close they really were; Laxus hid that so vehemently]

The conversation around AI is going to get away from us quickly because people lack the language to distinguish types of AI--and it's not their fault. Companies love to slap "AI" on anything they believe can pass for something "intelligent" a computer program is doing. And this muddies the waters when people want to talk about AI when the exact same word covers a wide umbrella and they themselves don't know how to qualify the distinctions within.
I'm a software engineer and not a data scientist, so I'm not exactly at the level of domain expert. But I work with data scientists, and I have at least rudimentary college-level knowledge of machine learning and linear algebra from my CS degree. So I want to give some quick guidance.
What is AI? And what is not AI?
So what's the difference between just a computer program, and an "AI" program? Computers can do a lot of smart things, and companies love the idea of calling anything that seems smart enough "AI", but industry-wise the question of "how smart" a program is has nothing to do with whether it is AI.
A regular, non-AI computer program is procedural, and rigidly defined. I could "program" traffic light behavior that essentially goes { if(light === green) { go(); } else { stop();} }. I've told it in simple and rigid terms what condition to check, and how to behave based on that check. (A better program would have a lot more to check for, like signs and road conditions and pedestrians in the street, and those things will still need to be spelled out.)
An AI traffic light behavior is generated by machine-learning, which simplistically is a huge cranking machine of linear algebra which you feed training data into and it "learns" from. By "learning" I mean it's developing a complex and opaque model of parameters to fit the training data (but not over-fit). In this case the training data probably includes thousands of videos of car behavior at traffic intersections. Through parameter tweaking and model adjustment, data scientists will turn this crank over and over adjusting it to create something which, in very opaque terms, has developed a model that will guess the right behavioral output for any future scenario.
A well-trained model would be fed a green light and know to go, and a red light and know to stop, and 'green but there's a kid in the road' and know to stop. A very very well-trained model can probably do this better than my program above, because it has the capacity to be more adaptive than my rigidly-defined thing if the rigidly-defined program is missing some considerations. But if the AI model makes a wrong choice, it is significantly harder to trace down why exactly it did that.
Because again, the reason it's making this decision may be very opaque. It's like engineering a very specific plinko machine which gets tweaked to be very good at taking a road input and giving the right output. But like if that plinko machine contained millions of pegs and none of them necessarily correlated to anything to do with the road. There's possibly no "if green, go, else stop" to look for. (Maybe there is, for traffic light specifically as that is intentionally very simplistic. But a model trained to recognize written numbers for example likely contains no parameters at all that you could map to ideas a human has like "look for a rigid line in the number". The parameters may be all, to humans, meaningless.)
So, that's basics. Here are some categories of things which get called AI:
"AI" which is just genuinely not AI
There's plenty of software that follows a normal, procedural program defined rigidly, with no linear algebra model training, that companies would love to brand as "AI" because it sounds cool.
Something like motion detection/tracking might be sold as artificially intelligent. But under the covers that can be done as simply as "if some range of pixels changes color by a certain amount, flag as motion"
2. AI which IS genuinely AI, but is not the kind of AI everyone is talking about right now
"AI", by which I mean machine learning using linear algebra, is very good at being fed a lot of training data, and then coming up with an ability to go and categorize real information.
The AI technology that looks at cells and determines whether they're cancer or not, that is using this technology. OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is the technology that can take an image of hand-written text and transcribe it. Again, it's using linear algebra, so yes it's AI.
Many other such examples exist, and have been around for quite a good number of years. They share the genre of technology, which is machine learning models, but these are not the Large Language Model Generative AI that is all over the media. Criticizing these would be like criticizing airplanes when you're actually mad at military drones. It's the same "makes fly in the air" technology but their impact is very different.
3. The AI we ARE talking about. "Chat-gpt" type of Generative AI which uses LLMs ("Large Language Models")
If there was one word I wish people would know in all this, it's LLM (Large Language Model). This describes the KIND of machine learning model that Chat-GPT/midjourney/stablediffusion are fueled by. They're so extremely powerfully trained on human language that they can take an input of conversational language and create a predictive output that is human coherent. (I am less certain what additional technology fuels art-creation, specifically, but considering the AI art generation has risen hand-in-hand with the advent of powerful LLM, I'm at least confident in saying it is still corely LLM).
This technology isn't exactly brand new (predictive text has been using it, but more like the mostly innocent and much less successful older sibling of some celebrity, who no one really thinks about.) But the scale and power of LLM-based AI technology is what is new with Chat-GPT.
This is the generative AI, and even better, the large language model generative AI.
(Data scientists, feel free to add on or correct anything.)

in the time loop the only way out is to leave her there but you don't ever leave her there, never in the roughly one thousand years you have been in the same day. it is probably like "50 first dates" but you haven't stooped so low as to watch "50 first dates" yet. (but who is to say what another thousand years of the same media will bring to you, maybe you will develop a new taste).
you spent about 200 of these years sulking in a bathtub or on the couch or staring at the seaside. 300 of them have been spent slowly mapping the geographical distance you can actually get before the time loop restarts. you have a list of favorite places: one library in Western Massachusetts called "The Bookmill", which has weird hours and has never raised an eyebrow to you arriving out-of-breath and panting, asking to see a specific book on a specific shelf. There is one beach without a name in North Carolina; it is an accident of geography and ownership title disputes - and it is pristine, untouched, warm and cozy. you've taken her on a lot of picnics there. Acadia National Park. One specific birdhouse in the mountains.
you were stuck in the time loop with the money you entered it with: not enough to rent a private jet. you've robbed a bank a few times, you don't like the way it ends. maybe next century you'll get the hang of it. you don't like the look on her face when you say hang on i have to stop at the bank.
you just have to leave her, and you can go back to being a person again. you took 5 years just catching a flight and sitting in the Grand Canyon. if there's one thing you regret more than anything, it's that you hadn't gotten your passport renewed before this fucking time loop. maybe you should spend some time learning forgery - but also, like, you look like an english teacher. nobody is going to be cool about you asking to see their paper printing machines.
the world is very big. that is one of the things groundhog day gets wrong. there are no consequences, so you have literally all the time (or none of the time?) in the world. in groundhog day, he does a lot of very cool things, but in reality - your muscle memory never gets better. you can't necessarily learn how to play piano or sculpt ice, because your hands never remember the practice. but hey - maybe you'll try violin next. drums. synth.
you can open any door and walk into any conversation. money isn't really an object. you can try every meal off every menu, forever. take her on helicopter tours and into every museum and on every event that is happening right-now at-this-moment. parades and funerals and calligraphy classes.
but you are somewhat trapped by the limitations of your body. if you were reading a book, you still need to get up and go back to the library and find that book again when the day resets. (thank god for the internet). it still takes like 2 hours to board a plane, and then takeoff and landing and traffic. you've gotten off to run around on the freeway. one of the little thankful things: since your brain isn't actually developing (it's a muscle too), the days thankfully don't feel shorter to you. that would be agony.
all you have to do to leave the timeloop is let that man get away with it. that's all. in every version of yourself - forever - you have stopped him.
the problem is that this experience has convinced you of the existence of the human soul. after all, how else are you forming memories? your very cells reset. information has to be transferred somehow. and if timeloops are real, you can convince yourself other magic exists. so you have two choices here: this hell, or the next. there might be a millennia where you have been worn down to the point you can accept fate's decision. this is just not one of them. ironically - she is the one thing you have left.
and besides! if you can't always find something new in your partner, aren't you failing them? there is something new about her, every day with the same morning. every brutal day with the same orange sunset.
after all, you wanted to live with her in heaven, in eternity, and, well - isn't this second-best.

"You're So Much Alike." - [B.C.]
Summary: Where you meet his mother for the first time and capture a picture that you will treasure for years to come.
Warnings: None, just a lotta fluff.
Notes: Based on the photo above where Chris recreated his childhood picture w/ his mom.
"When was this?" Your eyes turn to your boyfriend beside you and his head tips in your direction, eyes following only a moment later. A bright smile is plastered on his face as he was previously having a conversation with his mom to the opposite side of himself.
His teeth grit as his lips pull apart in a quiet hiss of thought. "Ah... Mm." His lips press together, brows furrowing as he looks at the picture. "Think I was.. four? Three? Three or four." He nods curtly, eyes drawing up to where you stare at him. ".... What?"
Your smile grows the longer you peer up at him. He doesn't seem to realize how absolutely adorable the photo currently in your hand is. "Nothing. I just love you."
Chan's eyes wander over your own before he giggles, his hand falling to rest on your knee. "I love you too, sweetheart."
"Oh, I was so young here." His mother reaches for the photo, gently taking it from your hand to look down at it. The look on her face seems to say without words that it brings back wonderful memories she couldn't ever forget.
"Please," You murmur, catching her attention with a soft smile. "You look the exact same, Mrs. Bang."
It was kind of his mother to offer to show you baby photos of him. You hadn't necessarily expected it during your first meeting with her, but she seemed more than excited to show you the silly pictures of Chan in the bath, or pictures of him covered in birthday cake when he was two years old. He'd gotten a bit embarrassed at the bath pictures, begging his mother not to show them to you before she countered back with; "What? She's seen it all before anyway!"
And you couldn't argue with that, laughing along as you squeeze his hand in your own. "I mean, she isn't wrong."
You felt incredibly lucky to be able to tag along on this opportunity - visiting Australia with Chan for the first time. The majority of the day is spent relaxing at his family home and getting to know his family; Unfortunately Lucas and Hannah are with their friends, which you can't fault them for, but you get to spend the day with his parents. And Berry, of course.
Their pup seems to take a love to you, following you around instead of sticking to Chan. She sits at your feet while you lean against the kitchen counter and watch his father cook lunch for the group of you; And she treads only a foot or two behind you as you move to dance with Chan's mother in the dining room to the soft music that plays through the house. The room is filled with laughter and the soft banter she exchanges with you on how she may have to steal you from her son with just how charming you are.
Lunch is quiet and soothing, bodies filled with warm home cooked food and Chan's mother asking just how the two of you met - where you saw yourself in ten years, what kind of career you were interested in, and how you felt about her son. Typical first meeting types of questions - But, she seems happy with all of your answers and while you aren't looking, shares an exchanged glance with her son that is telling him to marry you.
It ends as you excuse yourself from the table and move to help Chan at the sink, washing the dishes from preparing the meal and drying them off as he handed them to you. He smiles at you helping him out, about to tell you to go shoo so he can take care of it himself and let you relax. His eyes wander in your direction as you suddenly ask if his father needs another wife - widening in surprise and whispering a soft, "Excuse me?" in shock.
"What? He's literally you but a little older!"
"Are you tryna marry my dad right now--"
-
His father excuses himself from the home about an hour later, something work related beckoning him away. His mother suggests a walk around the park Chan use to run about in when he was little and you eagerly agree, wanting to see more of the local scenery. It's pleasant, a breeze wafting through your hair and brushing over your shoulders as you go. Berry's leash is held careful but firm in your palm and she treads nearby, tail wagging in excitement at just being out.
Without being fully aware of it, you'd fallen behind the mother-and-son duo after being caught up in admiring the nature around you. As your eyes draw back to the pair ahead, you stop walking and Berry takes a few more steps before halting as well. She turns to look up at you in curiosity and when you crouch down, she comes closer to rub her nose against your arm. Hand digging in your pocket, you pull out your phone and let the pair continue walking without disturbing them. Lifting your phone to snap a photo, the picture on your screen looks lovingly familiar to one you had seen earlier.
Chan seemed extremely grateful when you showed him the picture later on - and his mother even more so that evening. His father peeked over her shoulder before gently giving the woman a shake of admiration, hugging her around the waist shortly after. "Jessica, you don't look a day over thirty." And she laughs, swatting at his arm.
Your eyes dart to Chan's and he blinks, meeting your gaze a moment later. Your eyes narrow. "Why am I just now finding out that your mom's name is Jessica?"

5 people james didn't mean to kiss (and one he did) ; james potter x fem!reader
âť first james fic!! i love reviving old fanfic trends <33
âť word count: 4494
âť synopsis: says it on the tin baby!
âť warnings: swearing, allusions to sex/dirty jokes, era typical homophobia (basically nonexistent)
ââââ ââ
â ââââ
James Potter was a very affectionate person, everyone knew that. His love language was absolutely physical touch â everyone knew that too. It was also assumed, therefore, that James Potter had an extensive list of kisses. That assumption wasnât necessarily wrong, but a good chunk of them werenât exactly what you imagined when thinking of the great James Potter kissing someone. They were often impulsive when he didnât know how else to express his feelings. His very first kiss, for example, wasnât exactly the cheesy, romantic soap opera that he often advertised providing for girls.
Sirius Black
The Marauders sat in their dorm room, early on in second year. While first year was packed with ridiculous adventures and the forming of their friendship group, second year brought a new awareness of girls, romance and especially kissing. That was the topic of discussion as the boys all packed into one bed, hypothesising about what it might be like. James and Sirius led the discussion with much bravado and false confidence whilst Peter looked decidedly scared. Remus, to his credit, just looked rather amused at it all.
âBut where do you touch her?â James asked, eyes still wide and innocent and twelve years old, âI canât just stand there with my hands at my sides like a twat!â
âDonât be stupid, you hold her like this.â Sirius bent his arms in a direction that looked borderline painful. Remus huffed and climbed off the bed, pulling both the boys with him.
âIf youâre gonna kiss a girl,â Remus instructed, âYou have to hold her gently. Donât push her around like sheâs dead weight. James, put your arms around Siriusâ waist like that, now Sirius, you put your arms around his neck.â
âPeteâs gonna think weâre bent,â Sirius grumbled, a red hue on his cheeks.
âYou are bent, you poof,â Peter quipped from his spot on the bed. He was right, of course, but that wouldnât come to light until fourth year. James thought this was hilarious though, and began miming exaggerated â rather sloppy â kisses. And since James never failed to cure Sirius of his moods, he did the same. Remus rolled his eyes as the two boys acted out a passionate scene, loose tongues and all, until they were no longer acting.
All four boys in the dorm were frozen as James and Siriusâ mouths had accidentally connected in their stupidity, none of them sure what to do. Seconds passed as the two stood, lips locked against each other, no one daring to move. At least, until Remus let out a long, uncharacteristic wheeze, which dissolved into a fit of giggles that he would usually be mortified by, but there was no way he was outdoing the kiss anytime soon. Peter followed along momentarily, laughing so hard barely any sound actually came out, silent heaves punctuated by gasping breaths.
Released from their stupor both boys leapt apart, wiping their mouths with their forearms. Both had comical expressions of disgust, still slightly too stunned to verbalise any of it.
âWe,â James heaved, âCan never speak of this again. Ever.â Sirius agreed in a heartbeat, still unable to completely wipe the blush from his pale complexion. He probably would have dwelled on those feelings if James wasnât James, beginning to see the humour in it soon enough. By the end of the night it was an inside joke that would proceed to be referenced countless times within the walls of Hogwarts.
So although James would tell the story of his first kiss quite differently â he alleged it was with a Ravenclaw named Keeley a few weeks later, his proper first kiss will always have been with one Sirius Black in the Gryffindor dormitories on an otherwise unassuming Tuesday evening. And that secret was held onto dearly by all four marauders until, of course, Siriusâ best man speech at Jamesâ wedding, where the anecdote received uproarious applause, loudest of all by James himself.
2. Remus Lupin
The Marauders had all known about Remusâ âfurry little problemâ since their second year â first for the most perceptive of the bunch. Nevertheless, the group were insistent in helping Remus in any way they could, though it was a difficult task when his alter ego had no resistance to killing them. Until Sirius had come to them with the idea of becoming animagi. It was difficult no doubt, advanced magic far beyond the teaching at Hogwarts, but the four of them were exceptional wizards each in their own way, and the project seemed somewhat manageable with four brains chipping away at it over the course of two years.
When they finally did get it, hardly any of them could believe it, least of all Remus. He had never imagined that the human side of him was worthy of this much love and devotion, let alone the monster within him. However, despite how they tried to play it off, the achievement didnât come easily to any of them. Sirius was the first to get it, big black dog accompanying the group around the castle and becoming an unexpected staple of the Gryffindor common room. You in particular liked to cuddle up with him on the couch and spoil him with head scratches when you were stressed from school â at least until the secret was revealed and you hit him upside his human head for deceiving you.
James was second to get it, though much less gracefully than Sirius. The whole group of Gryffindors had been hanging out together down by the Black Lake, enjoying the slowly warming weather after class one day. James had the misfortune of being sat between you and Lily, which made things very confusing for his hormonal body and brain. His eyes were trained on his hands, too afraid to actually talk to either of you and embarrass himself which was what usually happened. You and Lily, however, were hell bent on making that occur. While James had had a well known crush on Lily for the last few years, ever since youâd come back to school that year post-puberty you could both tell that James was both emotionally and physically confused. You both delighted in this and used it to your advantage, Lily finding him the most annoying man on earth and you delighting in his flustered expressions (secretly finding him actually pretty cute).
After thirty minutes of torture, James couldnât take it. Youâd made one too many dirty jokes directed at him and he was a blushing mess, fidgeting awkwardly between you and Lily laughing gleefully. He excused himself quickly and uncharacteristically quietly, hurrying off to be out of sight of his friends. You all laughed as you watched him go, and Remus reluctantly stood, muttering something about making sure James didnât drive himself crazy.
Remus headed straight to the Forbidden Forest, knowing the privacy would be what James desired in the moment. Sure enough there he was, taking a moment to breathe against a tree.
âEasy there, Potter, donât cum in your pants,â He joked, obviously amused by the whole ordeal. James turned quickly, devastated at Remus seeing him so sexually frustrated.
âSod off, Lupin. Itâs not my fault! They both just sit there looking so fucking good, talking about all these unholy things and you expect me to just be fine with it? Itâs soââ Instead of the exasperated groan Remus expected, he was met with a stag standing tall in front of him. He couldnât help his mouth dropping open, the animal far more magnificent than he could have expected out of the fourteen year old boy.
In a weird shift of figure the deer was back to boy, and James only had a moment of shocked stillness before he was whooping and yelling in the grass. Remus joined him, the two of them yelling and dancing around like idiots in their joy. James pulled him in for a hug, appropriately masculine until he pressed a kiss onto Remusâ lips, still grinning ecstatically as they pulled away. Remus scowled in a way he hoped was convincing.
âI hate it when you do that, Potter,â He grumbled as the two of them returned to their friends.
âYeah, right,â James laughed, pushing his glasses up his nose. âItâs a blessing to be kissed by my sexy arse.â
3. Peter Pettigrew
While all four of the Marauders were undoubtedly exceptional wizards, that didnât always translate into their grades. For example, being so ahead in the curriculum made James Potter get lazy, often submitting subpar essays simply because he figured it was already common knowledge and he was more interested in higher level magic. He always ended up with top grades from outstanding extra credit projects, but the point still stood.
Peter was similarly a great wizard. Perhaps not so much a prodigy like James or Sirius, and didnât dominate the class ranks like Remus, but he did well for himself and was pretty exceptional in Herbology and Care of Magical Creatures. However, he was failing History of Magic. All four of them had chosen the subject for their OWLs, assuming it would be an easy O because of the ghost professor. They couldnât be more wrong. Binns was a useless teacher and Peter especially found it difficult to teach himself the material just from the textbook, and was falling dreadfully behind, each essay earning a worse grade than the last.
James had offered to help tutor him before their exams, and the two buckled down in the library almost every day in the weeks leading up to exam season. Peter made pretty good progress, eager to catch up with his friends and prove he was on their level. Still, everyone was nervous for the test and its outcome.
When results were released, you and the Gryffindors were all together. Whilst you and the girls all got the reveal over and done with, the boys all waited with bated breaths. Most of the grades werenât shocking â three of them knew they could easily get top grades from the little effort they put in, but they were all waiting on Peterâs History of Magic grade. The blond boy opened his paper with shaky hands, eyes scanning frantically over the information contained. Slowly he raised his head, nervous smile apparent.
âI got an A,â He said, and within an instant the boys were on top of him, congratulating him with strong hugs or by clapping him on the back. James grabbed both of his cheeks, pressing them together and pushing a kiss onto Peterâs lips.
âProngs!â Peter moaned, pushing his face away half-heartedly.
âIâm just proud of you, Wormtail,â He cooed, appearing much like his mother whom you all adored.
âOi, Potter,â You interrupted, waving your sheet of results around. âI got an O in Potions â whereâs my kiss?â James immediately broke your eye contact, and you pretended you werenât charmed by his embarrassed little smile. He mumbled a response that had his friends ripping him to shreds, egging him on whilst simultaneously teasing him and his alleged manhood. He pressed a gentle peck to your forehead and you raised an eyebrow.
âNot what I meant, but ok.â
4. Regulus Black
Regulus Black had a difficult relationship with the Marauders, to say the very least. By his fifth year â the rest of the boysâ sixth â Sirius had been at the Potterâs for months and Regulus was still reeling from the impact. He was noticeably quieter and more sombre than in years previous, and a dangerous resentment for his brother and his friends bubbled under his skin.
James Potter connected these dots quickly. However, he didnât really know what to do about it. He wasnât sorry that Sirius was living with him, but he didnât like that Regulus was left all alone with their wicked parents, regardless of their personal differences. That brought James to you.
You sat together on the couch, his head resting next to your thighs, curls just brushing against your skin in a way that you couldnât stop thinking about. He was lamenting about his mental struggles as you worked on your crochet, thinking quietly as he rambled on.
âWhy donât you just talk to him?â You asked suddenly, and James tilted his head to look up at you, holding back his laughter at your upside down appearance.
âWhat?â He asked, âI canât talk to him, he hates me!â
âWhen has that ever stopped you before? Lily hates you and yet you bother her all the time,â You said, smile playing on your lips.
âThatâs not true!â James protested, âI donât bother her that much anymore!â You rolled your eyes playfully and turned back to your craft as James continued to ponder the situation.
As usual, he decided you were right. And so he sent a short letter to Regulus, asking for a meeting on the Astronomy tower at midnight. Surprisingly heâd agreed, and the two boys were standing awkwardly across each other on the tower. Regulus refused to start the conversation and so stood in silence, staring down James in an effort to scare him off. James wouldnât be deterred.
âI just wanted to talk about what happened last year,â He said, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose nervously.
âThereâs nothing to talk about.â
âCâmon. I know weâre not friends, but I also figured none of your friends are the talking type either. So, I thought you could talk to me â full confidentiality. I donât know, blame me, yell at me, I just donât want you to do this all by yourself.â
âHow sweet, Potter,â He sneered, âBut I donât need to talk about any of my feelings.â
James Potter was nothing if not persistent.
âOk, well if you donât want to talk, how about you listen?â To his surprise, Regulus stayed. One perfect eyebrow raised, he slowly sat next to James, legs dangling over the edge of the tower. After a gesture for him to go on, James started. He began to talk about the process of having Sirius live with him, the feelings they both had about it, and the guilt they both felt about leaving Regulus alone. At that Regulus looked up, eyes pooling with hope.
Then without any warning, Regulus was talking more than James had ever heard before, spilling what he supposed must have been the younger boyâs darkest secrets and vulnerabilities. James was unprepared, not actually expecting him to engage. At one point James had put a comforting arm around Regulusâ shoulder, words failing to express any of the feelings he had inside. Regulus didnât pull away as James expected, instead only starting to cry. James just watched in disbelief as Regulus cried into his chest. Awkwardly, James arranged himself to press a gentle kiss to Regulusâ forehead right as Regulus moved to look up and speak, resulting in a ridiculous kiss between the two of them.
They jumped apart in less than a second, both with horrified looks on their faces.
âOh my Godââ
âThat was an accident I swearââ
âIâm really sorryââ
âI was just trying to comfort youââ
Both boys stumbled over their words as they clambered up to their feet, putting a strictly heterosexual amount of space between them.
âUm, Iâm just gonna go,â Regulus settled on, backing up towards the door.
âIâm seriously sorry, Black. Itâs just something I do â doesnât usually backfire like that.â Regulus just nodded, leaving quickly.
âPotter?â He stopped halfway through the door and James looked up. âThanks.â James didnât get any time to reply as Regulus was long gone, leaving him to cringe on his own. Neither of them would be telling anybody about the incident. Ever.
5. Lily Evans
You and James had been doing your will-they-wonât-they thing for a long time. Not quite since you met, but once youâd both started to notice the opposite sex youâd been participating in a battle of who could resist the longest. Teasing and cajoling were staples of your relationship. Whilst it had started as a way to pass the time; James had been in love with Lily since second year and you just liked to tease, at some point the feelings crossed over into a real and dangerous territory. However, neither of you wanted to do anything in case the feelings werenât reciprocated, and truthfully hadnât realised the true depth of them.
You and James were the only ones not to see the obvious: the feelings were absolutely reciprocated. It was tearing your friends apart, trying to get one of you to finally confess before you finished school forever. There were bets in place, pep talks and everything else the Gryffindors could think of to finally cause the event theyâd been hoping for. Eventually, Lily had had enough.
One day you were all hanging out in your dormitory, most of you doing your homework and Marlene fiddling with a record player, trying to get it to come back to life.
âSo, what would you guys think if I gave James a chance?â Lily asked, too coy to be genuine, but you were caught off-guard enough that you didnât notice. âI mean, I know Iâve said some terrible things over the years, but now that heâs backed off heâs actually a really nice guy.â
âBut⌠James?â You asked incredulously, essay immediately forgotten.
âYeah, why not? Heâs the hottest guy in our year, and if all goes to shit itâs only a few months until we graduate and Iâll never have to see him again.â
âBut itâs James!â The rest of the girls had caught on to what Lily was scheming and delighted in joining in.
âWhy shouldnât she? Itâs not like you like him, right?â Mary asked, studying your expressions. You hesitated for a moment, trying to find the right words. And just when they thought Lily had finally succeeded in getting the ball rolling you answered: âNo, of course not. You go ahead, Lils.â
What started as a ploy to get you to admit your feelings only snowballed from there when Lily realised she couldnât just back out now. And so she hatched a plan. Everything was going perfectly; Sirius and Remus had made sure the common room was devoid of younger students so no unhelpful rumours could be spread, and Marlene had been hanging out with you all evening to make sure you stuck to the schedule sheâd devised.
With perfect precision, you and Marlene entered through the portrait just as Lily came down from the dorms.
âHey, Potter,â She called, and James looked up curiously from his game of wizardâs chess. The redhead marched over to him, cupping both of his cheeks and kissing him strongly. Your jaw dropped open. You couldnât believe Lily was just going for it like that, but even more you couldnât believe the sick feeling creeping up from your stomach. You looked at Marlene, who only looked marginally less shocked. A glance around the room proved similar. Although they all knew Lilyâs plan, it was two entirely different things to hear about her scheme to get the two of you together and seeing Lily Evans kissing James Potter.
âIâve, uh, gotta go,â You mumbled, somehow finding your footing to run from the room, desperate to get anywhere where you didnât have to see that, and the subsequent (or so you believed) union of a happy couple.
Lily pulled away from the kiss, eyes immediately trying to find you and she was puzzled when she couldnât. A look at Marlene told her all she needed to know and her heart sank; sheâd failed. James was looking a little more dazed than the head girl, and suddenly looked terribly awkward in his seat.
âLook, Lils. Please donât take this the wrong way, but I donât feel that way about you anymore. Thereâsâ thereâs someone else, and I, I have to go.â With that James headed up to his dormitory, and the rest of your friends stood in a thick silence for several moments.
âI think I just made everything worse,â Lily said, and then the chaos started.
âWhat the fuck did you think was going to happen?â Sirius asked loudly, running a stressed hand through his hair.
âI donât know! I just figured maybe theyâd have an epiphany and both realise theyâd rather be kissing each other!â Lily cried, throwing herself into an armchair.
You
Lily was right, sheâd unintentionally made everything worse. You were upset at what youâd seen and the story youâd attributed to it, and even more so at your terribly timed realisation of your feelings. Because of this youâd started avoiding James in an effort to get over him, which only made you more miserable that you couldnât talk to your favourite person. James, in turn, hadnât seen you enter the common room on the night of the kiss and so believed âand dearly hoped â that you were blissfully ignorant, and so was equally perplexed and distraught at the space between you. Heâd tried to approach you about it but you evaded him or turned him away every time.
âHey, love, can we pleaseââ
âItâs fine, James,â You interrupted him, âIt was all just a bit of fun, right? All the flirting, the being touchy. But now youâre with Lily and Iâll back off, I get it, donât worry. I wish you two every happiness.â You tried to sound as genuine as you could while sadness bit at your heart, and left James standing astounded in the corridor. Now he knew that youâd seen the kiss the issue was obvious, but the solution remained a mystery to him.
Youâd taken to Marlene to get your feelings out, and she listened patiently as you rattled off a monologue about your childish jealousy and broken heart. Luckily, sheâd discussed how to handle this with Lily â who knew you wouldnât go to her because of her alleged involvement with James, and set off (hopefully) your friendâs last attempt to get you two together. She finally shook you out of it, frustrated with the lack of action.
âTheyâre not together,â She said, stopping you in your tracks.
âWhat?â
âTheyâre not together,â She repeated, making intense eye contact with you. âIt was all this dumb plan Lily had to get the two of you together. She thought if you saw James getting with someone else youâd finally realise your feelings for him. And you did, but you were supposed to stick around to hear Potter reject her and say that he liked someone else, you.â You were shocked into silence, what could you say to that?
âSo,â You started carefully, âWhat do I do now?â
James was in a similar situation with the boys.
âShe saw Lily kiss me and now she thinks I like Lily when I like her! Plus, she wonât even be in my presence long enough for me to explain that itâs all just this huge misunderstanding and itâs her I want to be snogging!â James lay dramatically across his bed as the boys sighed.
âProngs, isnât it obvious?â Sirius asked and James cocked his head to the side, looking remarkably like a confused puppy. âDo something she canât ignore. Make a grand gesture to prove your feelings for her.â James thought about it, it made sense. If you wouldnât hear his explanation, heâd just have to make you.
âHow?â
You and James went into the following Saturday with the same goal. It was Gryffindorâs quidditch semi-final, so there was a party being held whatever the outcome. It would be the first time youâd see each other since youâd realised your mistake since training was taking up all of Jamesâ time.
Gryffindor had won, thankfully, which had both of you in higher spirits. The party was already in full swing by the time you got there, opting for a smoke first to calm your nerves. Youâd spotted James almost as soon as you entered, always the heart and soul of a party. You marched towards him with a purpose, but as soon as he set eyes on you he jumped up to stand on a table. Someone had lowered the volume of the music â not silent, but low enough so you could hear him yelling over it. He said your full name, clearly and intentionally in a way that had surrounding people look at you curiously.
âI love you,â He said suddenly. âI am in love with you, not anyone else, and whatever made you think thatâs not true was just a huge misunderstanding. Because I love you so much, and all I want to do is snog you until Iâm the only name you remember, baby.â You let out a short laugh at his vulgarity and the cocky smirk that accompanied it, but a cheek-splitting smile won out when you thought about the preceding words and the sincerity heâd instilled in them. Before you even knew what you were doing you were racing towards him, gratefully taking Peterâs hand to join James on the table.
You honestly couldnât tell who had initiated the kiss, but you were suddenly so intimately joined together it was like all the air had been sucked out of your lungs, compressing your body in an effort to fuse to his. His strong arms around you couldnât shield you from the confetti being thrown around (for the match, of course, not just your kiss), nor the catcalls of your friends. You only pulled away when you felt Jamesâ tongue start exploring a little too far, mindful that half the people you knew were watching. You wore matching grins as you parted, foreheads still pressed together and breathing heavy.
While it might have taken four years, innumerable (accidental) kisses and one failed set-up plan to get there, you were sure in your heart that James Potter was the only boy you ever wanted to kiss. And so you did, over and over for the years to come, and you cheered and applauded enthusiastically as the seemingly never ending list of friends and family told stories of receiving a coveted James Potter kiss throughout the years, knowing you were the only one who got to be his bride.

The red flags are so blatant in what we see of Mother Aniseyaâs coven, is it not registering for anyone else that Sol got too emotionally involved but his instincts might have been correct?
Mae and Osha donât know anyone but this small community. No other children, no friends. Apparently theyâre not even supposed to venture outside by themselves. They donât have their own lives, brought up to basically think of themselves as one person.
Aniseyaâs the only one who truly loves them and cares about Oshaâs feelings. When everyoneâs discussing her leaving, the others only talk about what it will mean for them and their future. They just want her power.
Aniseya singles out the youngest of the Jedi to control with her magic as a threat when they havenât done anything hostile. Itâs understandable they feel a bit threatened and I see why the Council says they overstepped, but Koril is ready from the time they show up to go to their camp and kill them all.
Why are they teaching the girls to fight like itâs so serious? If these women all just want to live here unbothered, what are they actually preparing them for? What was it going to mean when the ritual was completed with both of them, and was it going to do something irreversible?
Aniseya tells Osha that others donât accept their ways so she wouldnât like the outside world like she thinks. (A manipulation tactic in cults.) But with the Jediâs perspective, itâs now clear everything they said when they interrupted the ceremony was basically a pretense for checking on the welfare of the girls and they donât care about these witches practicing another Force-based religion or training kids. So if theyâve got this persecution complex it could certainly be because theyâre actually doing something wrong. (Or just because they want to keep the power of this vergence all to themselves, all while saying theyâre not like other girls 'cause to them the Force isnât something you use or own.)
Most alarmingly once Aniseyaâs dead, none of them try to get to the children in the burning building. They just keep attacking the Jedi for what they did.
Of course lots of viewers will say that many of these concerning things are problems with how the Jedi treat children, too. And thatâs probably meant to be the point, that there are different ways of looking at it. But itâs telling how practically nobodyâs even addressing them. This show certainly reads differently depending on the bias you come to it with.
And none of these things really give the Jedi the right to remove these children from their family. I donât think Solâs concern comes from nowhere, but whether Osha's safe here is a separate question from whether she should be a Jedi and not necessarily in their purview. But heâs not using clear judgment because of his feelings so he ends up just hurting Osha, surely worse than anything her own mother was going to put her through. Attachment is selfish love, it's not good actually!

sketchbook â xmh
⥠pairing: xu minghao x gn!reader ⥠theme: best friends to lovers, college au, fluff ⥠wc: 3.1k ⥠warnings: none
âwhy did i sign up for this stupid class?â
you mumbled it under your breath, but your best friend still heard it from across the room. he looks up from the book heâs reading, a concerned frown on his face.
âwhatâs wrong with the class?â he closes his book, his eyes resting on yours.
âthe class is fine itâs just⌠iâm just bad at it.â
âi highly doubt that.â he gets up, joining you at your kitchen table currently cluttered with textbooks, homework, and various drawing materials. he reaches for your sketchpad. âlet me see.â
ânuh-uh,â you say, closing the book. he grabs it from you anyway.
âminghao! come on,â you shout at him. he ignores you, flipping through the pages.
âmost of those are shitty reject drawings that i started and gave up on, nobody needs to see those.â
he continues perusing through the book quickly, but pauses at a particular page. you take the chance and reach for the sketchpad again, grabbing hold of it.
âwait! i like this one.â
you glance at the drawing heâs looking at. itâs the side profile of a classmate, drawn as a warm-up exercise.
âwhat? that was just a warm-up sketch, and itâs not even good. it looks nothing like the girl i was drawing.â
minghao looks up at you. âthat doesnât mean itâs bad. art isnât necessarily about drawing things exactly the way they look, itâs about your interpretation of the subject. thatâs like the whole point.â
âi wasnât interpreting anything here, i was literally just trying to draw her face.â
âbut look,â he says, turning the book so you can see it. âlook at the way sheâs looking into the distance. she looks sad, but in a nostalgic way.â
you stare at the sketch. âi donât see it.â
âbut thatâs part of it too - art isnât always about knowing the exact meaning of the piece, itâs also open to interpretation on the viewerâs perspective. and i like the way you portrayed her emotion.âÂ
you narrow your eyes at him. âyouâre just making that up to make me feel better.â
âiâm not! i promise. i really like your art style, y/n.â
you want to roll your eyes at him, but he looks too sincere. âokay but how can i have an art style if i literally started drawing two weeks ago at the start of the semester? i donât even know what iâm doing.â
âlook at all your drawings though,â he flips the pages one at a time. âyou press really hard when you draw, so it gives everything a very bold, sharp look. and combined with the way you shade, it gives it a dramatic edge.â
you look at your sketches again. theyâre still unsightly in your eyes, but you do kind of see what he means.
âwell, thatâs good to know i guess. but itâs still hard,â you mope. âi thought this would be an easy elective to get an A in but now iâm worried.â
âitâs an intro class - iâm sure the professor isnât expecting you to be picasso on day one. just keep practicing and youâll be perfectly fine.â
one of the many things you love about minghao: he always knows how to make you feel reassured.Â
âyouâre probably right,â you reply. âi donât know what i should draw for practice, though.â
âwell, what do you want to improve the most?â
you think for a second. âour next project is a life drawing, but drawing people is so hard. so maybe that but what am i supposed to do, just draw random people?â
âsure, why not?â
âbecause thatâs weird!â
âokay, well it doesnât have to be a random person. here, try drawing me.â
âyou?? right now?â
âyeah.â
you open your mouth to protest, but you pause, realizing it might not be a bad idea.Â
you shrug as you reach for your pencils. âokay, i guess. you can't get mad when it turns out terrible though.â
minghao smiles softly. he situates himself in the chair, focusing his gaze off in the distance. you pick up your sketchbook, holding it at a comfortable angle as you hold your pencil above the page. you think for a minute - you never know where to start when you have to draw a face. you glance back up at minghao, skimming across his features - naturally, you land on his eyes. you always forget how pretty they are: dark brown, soft, calm - giving him a permanent aura of being deep in thought.Â
you look back down at the blank page, it's emptiness seemingly taunting you. with a sigh you touch the dulled lead tip to the paper, making your first stroke -Â the curvature of minghaoâs eyelid appearing on the page. you peep back up at your subject. to your surprise, your shape isn't too far off from reality. you continue, sketching his lower eyelid, his iris, his long dark eyelashes. you erase your marks a few times when they don't look quite right, but before long the image of an eye that looks mostly like minghaoâs has formed.Â
you move to his nose, drawing the line of its sharp bridge, sketching a circle to render its round, button-shaped end - bringing the shape of his face to life. you peer up at his face, your pencil continuing its strokes, but you pause as you arrive at his lips. they are soft, plump, perfectly formed, highly kissable. you sketch the delicate curves, emphasizing their pillowy nature. you find yourself absentmindedly in a trance when you realize youâve been staring at him for too long - youâve already finished drawing his mouth. you feel your cheeks turn warm, praying he canât see you getting flustered out of the corner of his eye.Â
you move on, sketching his soft but strong jawline, his ears - adorned with his usual jewelry, adding quick wispy lines to form the shape of his long hair. before long the essence of minghao has materialized in your notebook.
as you finish, you hold your sketchpad up to compare your drawing to your subject. you donât love it, and itâs nowhere near perfect. but it is decidedly good enough.
âokay, iâm done, i guess.â you set the notebook down, hesitantly sliding it across the table toward minghao. he picks it up, turning it to face him as he looks at it for the first time. the edges of his mouth twitch upward into a subtle smile, but he doesnât say anything.
âyou hate it.â
minghao looks up at you. âwhat? no, i love it.â he looks back at the paper with a pleased grin. âiâm telling you, youâre really good at portraying emotion.â
âand what emotion exactly did i portray?â
he shows you your drawing. âi look wistful - like iâm caught in a daydream of unrequieted love.â
you feel your stomach do a flip, but you play it cool, crossing your arms and rolling your eyes at him. âwell, i didnât do that on purpose. but iâm glad you like it.â you extend your hand to take back the notebook, but he turns it toward him again, taking another look.Â
âcan i keep it?â he looks up at you, his striking brown eyes making contact with yours. you stifle a gulp as you reply.
âum⌠sure, i guess so. if you really want it.â
he gives you a soft smile, pleased at your response. âi really do.â he carefully tears the page along the perforation, separating it from its spiral binding. he closes the sketchbook and hands it back to you. you return it to its place in your backpack.
âwell, thanks for letting me practice on you, i appreciate it.â
âof course. if you need any more practice let me know - since i see you most days anyway.â
âyouâre the best.â
âi know,â he replies smugly. you pick up your eraser and lob it at him. he manages to catch it with one hand, giving you a sly look as you jump out of your chair, running from him before he can throw it back. he follows you, chasing you around your apartment - you shout at him, feigning anger, but your laughter gives you away.Â
another thing you love about minghao: being with him is always so easy.
â
you didnât mean to make drawing minghao a regular occurrence. but on one particularly crisp fall day, you find yourself absentmindedly sketching his features as you eat lunch together in the park. heâs reading for his literature class, and youâre supposed to be studying for your sociology course, but you keep zoning out. itâs not your fault that the text is dull, and that the cherub-like rosiness coloring his cheeks makes him look more ethereal than usual. renaissance paintings of angels have nothing on how beautiful he looks right now, you think to yourself.Â
you also definitely didnât mean to start falling for your best friend, but here you are.
delicate pencil strokes paint the wisps of his bangs falling over his eyes as he is studiously engrossed in his book, his long eyelashes peeking through the curtain of hair. you focus on perfecting the shape of his face - glancing up to compare your rendering to your subject - when you notice him looking back at you.
âwhat are you doing?â he asks, genuinely curious.
youâre about to shut your notebook in a panic, when you realize that would only look more suspicious.Â
ânothing, justâŚâ
he reaches for your notebook, his fingers brushing over the top of the page as he tilts it down so he can see. he lets out a soft chuckle.
âpracticing again, i see,â he says, casually, but clearly teasing you a little. âi thought you were supposed to be studying for your sociology exam.â
âi am,â you insist. he raises his eyebrow at you. âi was just taking a break,â you add. the look on his face tells you heâs not convinced, but he doesnât press you further.
âit looks good, i can tell youâre getting better at drawing from a reference.â
âi guess it is getting a little easier,â you admit.Â
minghao smiles. âgood,â he affirms, before going back to his text without another word.Â
you find yourself gazing dreamily at the man before you, lost in aimless thoughts, imagining the feel of his hair tangled around your fingers, his skin softly pressed against your cheeks, his lips brushing against yours. eventually he notices, peeking up at you through his bangs. you swiftly return to your drawing, only to realize you've already finished. his portrait looks slightly cartoonish, and nowhere nearly as beautiful as the real thing, but you decide it's not half bad.Â
you half-heartedly resume your studies, sneaking glances at minghao here and there. every glimpse makes your heart flutter - you feel like an idiot, you're in college for christ's sake, and here you are having an entire crush on your closest friend.Â
just tell him how you feel, part of your mind tries to convince you.Â
but what if it ruins our friendship? another part of you worries.Â
you realize you're staring at him again when he looks up from his book, his gaze meeting yours.Â
âhmm? what is it?â he asks you calmly.Â
âiâŚâÂ
you hesitate. his eyes rest on your face attentively.
you let out a small sigh. âiâm getting cold. can we go inside?â
he smiles softly, marking his page as he closes his book. âof course.â
minghao walks you to your next class, which is conveniently located in the building next to his next class.Â
âwell, see ya later,â you tell him as you turn to enter the building.Â
ây/nâŚâ
you freeze as he grabs your arm. you turn back around, looking at him expectantly. he lifts his hand up to your head, tenderly reaching for your hair. you realize you're holding your breath. you exhale as his fingers graze your scalp softly, plucking something off of your head.Â
he holds a small yellow piece up to you. âyou had a leaf in your hair.âÂ
your panicking ceases, leaving you a bit disappointed, but you can't help but smile at him.
âthanks, minghao. what would i do without you?â
âwalk around with leaves in your hair all day, probably.â
you playfully give him a light shove. he reaches for the door, opening it for you as you head off to class.Â
âi'm coming over tonight, if that's alright,â he says as you step through the doorway.Â
âof course,â you say, turning over your shoulder to face him. âthough, i should probably start charging you rent as much as you're at my place.â
he smiles back at you. âsee you later, y/n.â
he disappears as the door shuts quickly. you spend the rest of the afternoon in a daydream, impatiently counting the hours until you see him again.Â
â
âhowâs the studying going?â minghao asks from the other end of the couch. he sets his book down, pausing so he can take his hoodie off. his plain black t-shirt rises up as he does, revealing his entire midriff. you try not to gawk too hard. he stares at you as he tosses the hoodie aside - you realize he is awaiting your response.Â
you look down at your notebook, where youâve once again been sketching his face. âum⌠pretty good,â you lie. âare you hungry?â you ask, changing the subject.
âstarving, actually,â he admits.
âwell, i can offer you ramen, or⌠actually, thatâs about it.â
he grins at you. âramen sounds great. want me to make some-â
ânope,â you respond as you flip your notebook over, setting it face down on the seat next to you. âi got it.â you rise and head to the kitchen.Â
you cook the noodles, serving them into two bowls and carrying them back to the living room. you set the bowls on the coffee table, reaching over to set one in front of minghao - but you feel your leg bump against something. you look down to see your notebook fall to the floor - landing right side up. before you can grab it, minghao has already picked it up for you. he goes to hand it back to you, but pauses as he sees your sketches. you go to swipe it out of his hands, but miss as he pulls back, looking at his own face doodled on your pages.
âyou were drawing me again.â it wasnât a question.
you try to quickly think of some excuse, anything, to get you out of this one, but your mind comes up blank. you decide to try and play it off.
âyes,â you reply with feigned confidence as you sit down next to him. he looks up at you, then back down to the paper. you stare at him, waiting for him to say something else, but he says nothing.
âi like to practice whenever i can,â you add with a shrug.
he flips through your notebook. âwhenever you can, or whenever youâre with me?â
âum⌠i-â
âbecause these all sure look like me, y/n.â
âso?â you ask him. you meant for your tone to be casual, but it came out a bit more defensive than intended.
his eyes meet yours again. he looks at you warmly, but you canât tell what heâs thinking. your heart beats rapidly in your chest.Â
âso,â he answers as he sets the notebook aside. âi'm wondering, ifâŚâ he scoots closer to you, lifting his hand to your face, gently brushing your cheek with his thumb. your skin feels like it's on fire. his fingers tucked under your chin delicately, he draws your face in toward his. you gasp softly.Â
âif you feel the same way about me, as i feel about you.â
your heart is racing. you feel dizzy. he's so close to you, a few more inches and your noses would touch. his plump lips wait enticingly.Â
âand how do you feel about me?â you manage to ask, your voice barely more than a whisper. his deep brown eyes stare longingly into yours. youâre pretty sure you know the answer, you hope you know the answer, but you need him to confirm it.Â
suddenly, he kisses you.Â
he kisses you, setting alight fireworks inside you. his soft lips touch against yours ever so gently, his nose pressing against your cheek, his hand holding your face tenderly in his palm, then sliding to the back of your neck, drawing you closer still into him. your chest presses against his, his other arm wrapping around your waist, his large hand settling upon the small of your back. you kiss him back, your lips locked onto his like your life depends on it. you've thought of this, dreamt of this, so many times before, all the years you've known minghao - yet you never could have imagined how thrilling, exhilarating, freeing it would be to finally be here, in his arms, world stopped, nothing matters except you and him, so lovingly embraced - together.Â
electricity pulsates through your skin, every nerve in your body dancing. slowly, minghaoâs lips part from yours. you lock eyes with him - in all the time you've known him, he's always been a sentimental person, but you've never seen such love and adoration beaming from him like you see now.Â
and it's all for you.Â
a giggle escapes you. minghao looks at you, a wide grin spreading across his face. you run your hands through his hair, a sensation you've waited so long to experience - it's every bit as delightful as you imagined.Â
âhaoâŚâ you start.
he plants another kiss on your lips. âhmm?â he asks, still glowing at you.Â
âhow long have you felt this way?â you ask softly.Â
âi've had feelings for you since the day we met, and i've loved you more every day since.âÂ
you boop your nose against his, giving him a fake stern look.Â
âand why didn't you tell me?â
he feigns a pouty face back at you. âwhy didn't you tell me?â
you blow a tiny raspberry at him. he smiles, pulling you into him, wrapping his arms around you tightly as he kisses your cheek repeatedly. you laugh, held in his warm embrace, overflowing with emotions.Â
finally, you can admit it: you're in love with your best friend - and he just so happens to love you back.Â

ranking terror characters based on how prophet-coded they are
crozier: 4/10 crozier's kassandra status is often overstated i believe. just because franklin is wrong doesn't mean crozier is right. none of his predictions come true except those regarding the ice. that's not prophecy it's just meteorological knowledge. some points for the act of hubris we may not survive though. i can't deny that they did not survive
silna: [ERROR]/10 objectively framed as a prophet character. makes the number one most accurate prophecy in the show ("she said that if we don't leave now we're going to [disappear]."). i can't say whether she truly is one however, bc her standing outside english modes of knowledge is a big part of what casts this statement in a mysterious light. from the english (and the audience's) perspective this is prophecy, but is it from hers? or is it just, as i said before, meteorological knowledge? maybe the prophet is just another role projected onto silna, bc her having supernatural insight is easier for the english to stomach than her having knowledge they lack. this doesn't entirely preclude her being a prophet as well though, since we know that there are in fact supernatural forces at play. english perceptions of her prophethood being incorrect doesn't mean said prophethood is necessarily non-existent. maybe if we saw more of silna, especially with her own people, i could give a definitive answer, but as it stands i'm undecided. whatever the case bonus points for making that terror model without masts that looks like the actual wreck that shit was cool as hell
david young: 7/10 solid first act prophet. hounded by visions he doesn't understand. gives warnings that ultimately go unheeded. not much else to say about this one it's a classic
hickey: 2/10 wants to be a prophet so bad but has little to no insight into the future. some points for his tendency to be the first to say things that are true about the present or to utter thoughts others have but are unwilling to share. may not be an actual prophet but strangely capable of filling the social function of one
jopson: 1/10 never really does anything prophet related but gets a point for objectively looking like he knows how you're going to die at all times
collins: 3/10 collins has visions but they're not of the future; they're of the past which is a different sort of thing entirely. does get some points bc visions are still visions and the past he sees does in fact mirror the future that awaits
fitzjames: 0/10 i've put him on the list bc he's a main character but he is absolutely not a prophet on account of he doesn't know shit. he IS a walking prophecy however and that prophecy is the rot of imperialism. and scurvy
blanky: 11/10 i've said this before and i'll say it again blanky is the only character who actually understands the situation they're in. not only does he give an ominous speech about the future, but his is actually acted upon in a way that ends up contributing to it's fulfillment. that's prophecy, baby! thinking about this is why i made this post
goodsir: 9/10 gets just one big prophet moment but it's an absolute banger: jacko's death. reads the future in an animal's entrails (if you squint) which is objectively the coolest form of prophecy. like blanky's prophecy, stanley hearing it and acting to avoid it only makes the situation worse
franklin: 1/10 the point is for "i've long wanted to move below"
#posts for me and me alone#though actually if anyone else has thoughts feel free to add them in the notes i'm really curious what other people think about this!#the terror

Romancing the Viscount (m) 18+
â â
-Disclaimer: This AU is inspired by Bridgerton. I do realize a viscount is a British nobleman, but for the sake of the AU, we are going to use our imagination xoxo
â â
-Summary: For three seasons now, you had yet to have any marriage proposals under your belt. It was depressing to say the least. You have come into society as a blossomed young woman, ready for marriage, but no man of the ton has seemed the slightest bit interested in you. Youâre on year three of being let off your leash into society and the pressure was certainly on for you to find a husband. You were beautiful, charming, and had incredible wit; anyone would be dying to have your hand in marriage. What could possibly be taking so long? Perhaps a viscount has had his eyes set on you all along and heâs the reason you have yet to be wed.
-Pairing: viscount!jungkook x female reader
-Genre: smut, smut, and more smut.
â â â
The day started off fairly promising with the pure energy that radiated from you as you rose from the cotton sheets which kept you company at night, aiding you a good nightâs rest. Your feet touch the cold floor and you spring to action as you skip across your room, your baby blue night gown trailing through the air behind you at your rushed pace. Excitement crept through your bones down to your core with the thought of tonightâs seasonal ball. Of course you had plenty of balls to attend to throughout the season, but the first ball of the season was always the most important, as well as the most promising.
Although you were gleaming with excitement, you couldnât help but feel a little nervous as well. Maybe even a bit discouraged. This would be your third season out into society and you couldnât help but wonder if you would find the man of your dreams in the near future. A girl can only hope. Many young women have had no problems snagging a husband on their FIRST year of their debut into society, so what could you be doing wrong? Surely there was nothing wrong with you, at-least you didnât think there was.
Your reflection in the vanity mirror stares back at you as you run your nimble fingers across the soft, supple flesh of your cheek.
âIs it my looks?â You ask yourself, barely above a whisper.
The characteristics of your looks were actually quite simple. You had rather large, round eyes with perfectly curled lashes to frame the lids. A cute button nose and incredibly soft cheeks which always seemed to have a hint of pink undertones to your rather fair complexion. You were also adorned with an exceptionally full figure, making you curvy in all the right places. Never mind the fact that these characteristics didnât exactly make you unique; you were still deemed one of the most beautiful women of the ton.
Yet, still no husband.
Perhaps you were beginning to feel a bit impatient. Of course you were. What were you to do if you go through yet another season with no man on your arm? God forbid you end up as a spinster, which might be your fate if you donât find any eligible bachelors soon.
There were quite a few bachelors who you have set your endearing gaze upon, but unfortunately none of them have ever given you more than just a couple of minutes of sub par conversation. With questions ranging from the weather to who you think the queenâs next âDiamondâ will be. Youâre always polite and proper, speaking with purpose and clarity. Youâve never seemed to have trouble charming your way through a crowd. Youâll never understand what the hold up could be.
Surely you shouldâve at-least had ONE proposal by now, but as luck has it, itâs not necessarily on your side as of late.
Your maid rushes through the double doors of your chambers, preparing to wake you before her eyes land on you across the room while you sit at your vanity.
âWell youâre up quite early, I see.â She smiles and strides over to open the curtains to the windows, letting in the bright rays of sunlight into the four walls of your bedroom.
âToday is the first official day of the season. If Iâm going to find a husband, I need to make sure I am on my toes at all times and prepared for anything,â you say as you gently pat a small dab of foundation into your skin.
Dana, your maid, gives an approving nod and walks over to begin taking the pins from your hair, allowing your curls to bounce out from their confinements and take their place down the slope of your back. You made sure to pin your hair in rollers the night before so that you could have the most perfect curls. She begins running her fingers through the softness of your locks, carefully moving the pieces of hair into their rightful positions.
Effortlessly beautiful. Exactly the look you were going for.
You put the finishing touches onto your makeup, having gone for a subtle natural appearance, and stand to finally begin ridding yourself of your nightgown.
âYouâre going to do just fine this season,â Dana says as she helps you into your corset. âDonât forget that you are absolutely gorgeous.â
The corners of your lips raise at her compliment and you turn to her with your hands clutching your chest. âYouâre too kind. I appreciate the work you put into making me look so good.â
She lets out a giggle and slightly shakes her head, the front two pieces of her baby hairs swinging at the sudden movement. âDonât be silly,â she begins, âYou already have all the right qualities.â Her words pierce into your mind, almost reminding you that you should have nothing to worry about.
Almost.
She helps you into a simple baby pink gown that seems to hug your curves in all the right places. The corset is definitely working wonders on you, not that you needed to rely on it too terribly. You grab a scarf and carefully drape it behind your shoulders and across your forearms, deeming yourself ready for the day.
First stop was to go by the modiste for a fitting of your dress you would be wearing for tonightâs ball. You wanted to make sure everything would be perfect for tonight, which would hopefully grant you the success youâve been chasing since two seasons ago.
As hoped but also a bit expected, your fitting goes by swimmingly. Madam Claire, the most trusted modiste within miles, did an exceptional job on capturing exactly what you envisioned for your gown. It was a dark blue with a suede bodice and sleeves made of silk, enveloping your arms all the way down to your small but perfectly manicured hands. The bottom portion of your dress was also silk and although it was slightly puffy, it was still quite slimming, small crystals adorned the fabric across the entirety of the material.
It was absolutely breathtaking.
âOh Claire,â you gush as you do a 360 spin, your eyes only leaving your reflection in the mirror for not even half a second, âItâs everything Iâve imagined. If I do happen to be blessed to become a bride this season itâll surely all be thanks to you.â
A slight blush creeps onto her tanned cheeks and she playfully waves a hand at you, âOh stop it. This dress wouldnât even look half as good if it werenât you who were wearing it.â
The smile never leaves your face as you embrace her into a quick, but comforting hug. âThank you so much Claire. Youâre the absolute best,â you thank her and quickly undress to change back into your previous dress.
You decide to pass a bit of time as you make your way back down the street, finding a bench up ahead to sit and catch up a bit on your new book. You quite liked reading. The way words can be put together to create something beautiful was a talent that would always be incredibly admired by you. It was the way that it didnât matter where you were, for once you picked up your book and started reading, you could imagine yourself being there in the story. Almost as if the words came alive right before your eyes.
Youâve been told by a countless number of mamas of the ton that the reason you didnât have a husband yet was because of the fact you couldnât keep your nose out of a book. Often being told not to âtaint yourselfâ with such a boring and time consuming activity.
However, that never stopped you from opening a book and becoming one with the words on the page. It was like it was an addiction. An addiction you never wanted to ween yourself off of. People didnât seem to understand the want of a woman to read, but you were never confused with the activity. You simply enjoyed it. You had even taken up quite a hobby of your own by writing in your journal every other night, explaining in utter detail of what you wanted most out of this life. Perhaps writing it down on paper helped give you the hope of it actually becoming true.
Your attention was suddenly torn away from your book as you lift your head to the sounds of women giggling a bit too loud for your liking across the street.
A group of four women stand before a man as they flutter their lashes and wave their fans inches away from their bosoms. The man in question was none other than Viscount Jeon.
He was a man of great fortune and even greater integrity. His confidence radiating from him like fumes from a flame as he chuckled at the flirting women. Viscount Jeon was definitely the man every young woman wanted on their arm, regardless of his reputation being a class A rake. Not to mention, he was drop dead gorgeous.
From where you sat, you slightly saw his side profile, and boy was it a sight. Of course youâve seen the Viscount plenty of times, mainly at a ball being thrown, but sometimes around the square. It wasnât hard to admit that you would never get tired of seeing him. His shoulders looked deliciously broad from where you were sitting and you quickly realized your interest for your book carefully slipped away the moment your eyes landed on his figure. A quite lean and very muscular figure, at that.
You subtly watch as the man converses with the women, making them swoon at almost every word that leaves his enchanting lips. Your eyes trace his figure, taking in the expensive material of dress he wore on his back. His coat cinched around his waist almost too perfectly, making him all the more irresistible. You catch the sight of his rings around his beautifully thick, creamy toned fingers, and let out a disappointed sigh as he moves to shove his hand into the pocket of his perfectly fitted breeches.
Embarrassment quickly replaces your neediness as two mamas pass by you, following your entranced gaze over to the Viscount. You had been caught staring. Although you werenât caught by the Viscount himself, you still felt your cheeks get hot as you were visibly noticed practically drooling over the man.
You let out a huff of air and stand to your feet, deciding you should head back home to start getting ready for the ball.
What you didnât notice, however, was the way the Viscountâs eyes locked onto you as he spotted you crossing the street. He has stolen many glances at you over the past couple years every-time heâs seen you. You were beautiful, that much he knew. He also knew that your debut into society wasnât the most successful as you still hadnât managed to find a husband which happened to be from his doing. He has never even spoken to you once but he knew the moment he laid his eyes upon you, he had to have you, and he made quick work of letting every man of the ton know that you were off limits. You, however, had no idea that was the case of your suffering fate and he didnât plan on telling you about it either.
â â â
You watch the trees go by and listen to the sounds of the horse's hooves hitting the ground while you make your way to the ball in your carriage. The leaves were a beautiful green and the grass even greener and it made you smile. You always appreciated nature and how magical everything seemed to look whenever a new season had approached. In your gut you had hoped tonight would be the night you get to meet your future husband, as you were starting to grow very tired of waiting.
A sigh escapes your lips and you look down into your lap, suddenly very interested in watching the way your fingers toyed with the material of your dress. If you manage to fail yet another season, you might just give up. You looked exceptionally beautiful tonight, even you could admit. Dana sits across from you as she watches you silently battle yourself inside your own head.
She reaches forward and places one of her hands over your fidgeting fingers and says, "You will do amazing tonight. Don't worry yourself so much, you'll create wrinkles on your forehead."
You send a gentle smile her way and caress her hands into your own. Dana had always encouraged you no matter the day or the task at hand. She was so supportive of you, never faltering. You suppose it was because it was her job, but you and Dana had grown rightfully close over the years of her taking care of you. With your mother passing at a young age and your father going over seas, Dana was all you had. You couldn't feel more grateful.
"What will i do?" you ask, "If I don't find a husband surely I'll be ruined."
She frowns at the sight of you shutting down. Truthfully, Dana couldn't quite understand how you still haven't managed to wed since your debut. There was no gossip going around of you that would potentially scare any suitors away. Your looks were most definitely not the problem, as you were incredibly beautiful, even more beautiful than most ladies she had worked for in the past. In truth, she was just as confused as you were.
"Don't talk that way. You will find a husband, I'm sure of it. You are beautiful, smart, witty, and selfless. This season will be your season." She holds both of your hands into her own and her words make you smile. You trusted her with your life and she always saw the good in you. She knew the potential you had to become successful.
Now it was just you who needed to see it in yourself.
The carriage suddenly comes to a stop before the palace and your eyes sparkle as you take in the scenery. The hedges around the property were trimmed perfectly and the lights that shined around the palace twinkled in the most captivating way. You watch as a few ladies make their way inside, fans in hand. The goal for you tonight was to shine and continue to be the one thing you ever knew how to be, which was yourself.
"Go," Dana shoos you out of the carriage and gives you another look before sending you on your way. She moves a couple strands of hair that managed to fall out of place and smiles, "Perfection."
You wave to her as you begin to make your way to the entrance, your nerves suddenly making another appearance inside of your gut. You fix your posture as you started to slouch and you carefully run your fingers across the material of your dress, trying to rid the perspiration that managed to build up because of your nerves. Taking a deep breath, you begin to make your way inside.
Your eyes take in all of the pictures that hang the walls of the hallway. It's almost like you had never been here before, although you have a couple times in the past. The first ball of the season was always held at the Queen's palace, and the Queen made sure to keep it exceedingly presentable. You stop before one picture that catches your eyes above the rest. It was a picture of the Queen and her King when they were younger. She wore the most grand gown in the photo, as she always does, and King George stood beside her in all his gory. They looked proud and emanated power as they both stared into your soul. Oh how you longed to find a love like the Queen had.
"Are you not going to go inside?"
Your head whipped to the side as you curiously look to see who was speaking to you.
It was the Viscount.
You quickly bow, not wanting to seem disrespectful. "Lord Jeon, how lovely to see you."
His eyes never leave you, not even for a second. He takes you in from your head down to your toes, as if his eyes were drawing a map across your form. You always managed to clean up very nicely, from styling your hair into the most perfect way to picking the most gorgeous gown.
You began to feel rather small under his stare, nervously switching your weight from one foot to the other. At his delayed response, you begin taking him in as well. His waist coat fit his muscular body like a glove and his breeches, even more fitting. You could almost make out the shape of his body through the fabric, your eyes trailing the material. What a man the Viscount was. You look back up to his face, finding him already staring at you, and a blush creeps up to your cheeks.
"No escort?" he asks as he looks around the, now empty, hall. It seems everyone has already made their way into the ballroom.
"Oh, no. I don't ever have anyone to escort me to these sort of things," you let out a breathy chuckle and clasp your hands together for what seemed to be the tenth time tonight already.
A small smirk edges it's way onto his beautiful lips and he holds his arm out to you. "Well, what are we waiting for?"
Was the Viscount really offering to escort you into the ballroom? Surely he wouldn't want to be seen with a woman such as yourself, as you've had not a single suitor in the past two years. A man of such status would never.
However, he was the Viscount, and you would be absolutely insane if you didn't take him up on the offer.
You carefully outstretch your arm and rest your fingers into the crease of his elbow, allowing him to lead the two of you to the ballroom entrance. Your nerves seemed to spike even more now, causing you to slightly squeeze his arm. He notices the action and looks down to you, watching as your eyes bounce from one edge of the room to the other. With his other hand, he reaches over and allows it to rest on yours. This action causing your gaze to snap up to him.
"No need to be nervous. I got you." Your eyes fall to his lips as he utters the words and oh how perfect they looked as he attempted to comfort you, which had worked, by the way.
You give a curt nod and a tight lipped smile and allow him to escort you through the entrance.
Upon entry, everyone stopped their conversation and allowed their eyes to fall at the head of the room where you and Lord Jeon stood. You hear the whispers immediately from the mamas and their daughters as they wonder how you, a woman with no suitors and three seasons deep into society with not a single marriage proposal, had the Viscount on your arm.
You had to admit, you felt pretty powerful. Not that him escorting you to the ball meant anything. Perhaps he was just being nice, but you surly were not going to complain.
He leads you down the grand staircase and you make sure to try and watch your step so you don't happen to fall and embarrass yourself even more to the people who so clearly wanted to watch you fail. Your fingers tighten against his muscle once again as the two of you reach the bottom and begin taking in all the eyes that were now on the two of you. Had you been dreaming?
He doesn't make an effort to part from you, instead, he leads you over to the refreshments table and hands you a small glass of lemonade. He must have thought you were thirsty from the nerves attacking your body from the inside, which he would be right. You grab the glass and take a sip, instantly feeling a bit better. A massive sum of the people around you were still staring, but it seemed as most begin to indulge into their own conversations and even taking to the dancefloor.
A couple of women make their way to you, their fans in hand and their lashes fluttering in the Viscount's direction. You wanted to roll your eyes but stop yourself because in all honesty, you couldn't really blame them.
"Lord Jeon," one gushes as she bows before him, furiously fanning her bosom when she stands to meet his gaze. "What a lovely ball, don't you agree?"
You figured that maybe you should leave his presence and allow him to converse with the women, however, you feel his arm flex and tighten around your fingers just as you were about to let go. In turn, you decide to stay in place and you flash a fake smile to the woman before you.
"Oh," she says in a startling manner, "I didn't see you there Miss." You wanted to scowl at her for her very obvious condescending tone , yet decided against it because you were the one with the man she wanted at your side. It made you feel quite victorious in a way.
Alas, as soon as her attention was on you, it was gone in a second and back onto the Viscount. "Would you care to dance?" she asks, so shamelessly holding her hand out to him.
He gives her a warm smile and tugs you slightly closer into his side, "Pardon me, but I was actually about to ask Miss Y/L/N if she would like to join me on the floor." He looks down at you now, you not quite registering his advance just yet. You only look up to him when you see the woman in front of you shoot a venomous glare upon you.
"Of course," you say, barely above a whisper. You wanted to laugh in her face and maybe even throw an unpleasant gesture her way, but in turn you make the decision to be as graceful as you can in the matter. You turn to set your half empty glass of lemonade on the table behind you and allow him to lead you onto the floor.
If everyone was staring at you before, they surly were now as the two of you take your places into the center of the room and begin to dance. It was apparent to the Viscount that everyone in this room was envious of you, although you weren't aware. He knew every man wanted to have you and every woman wanted to be you. He couldn't blame you too much for your lack of observation because in your defense, no man had approached you for anything more than small conversation, too afraid of what the Viscount may do had they made an advances onto you.
"You must pity me." The words come out before you can stop them and you let out a small laugh. He ticks his head to the side, very obviously confused with your comment.
"Pity?" he questions. "Why would I pity you?" he follows up with another question just as he slightly spins you, pulling you in again.
It took you a bit off guard with the close proximity between the two of you being incredibly evident. You look up at him through your lashes and let out a small sigh. "Lord Jeon," you begin. "I just want you to know that you don't have to feel bad for me. I may not be able to get a husband but it doesn't mean I need you to try and help me."
Now it was his turn to be slightly taken off guard. You thought he was only being in your presence so that he could bring more attention towards you, in turn, helping you find a husband. You become quite nervous at his silence and the way he just stared at you, still dancing without missing a beat.
"You think I'm only dancing with you to help you find a husband?" he asks, spinning you another time. Your eyes drift slightly to the outskirts of the dancefloor, noticing how everyone was watching the two of you. Quite a few faces of disapproval look back at you and those of admiration aimed at the Viscount. Of course they were only interested because he was here.
"Is that not what you're doing?" you ask as you turn back to look at him. You were slightly surprised to see the longing in his eyes as he stared back at you. How could you possibly think he was only interested in helping you? How could you not know how beautiful you were, how the room went completely stiff upon your entrance? And now as everyone stops and watches the two of you dance together, you still think you aren't good enough to be looked at.
He shakes his head at your question and slightly dips you. Your breath quickens, as does his at the sight of your hair completely separating from your shoulders and fully exposing the expansion of your chest. Your bodice fit your body to perfection and in this moment it proved much more evident from what he observed upon first glance of you out in the hall.
You're picked back up into his arms in a rather slower pace than you expected, now rising to see his eyes buried into your skin even deeper than they were before. It's crazy how one can have such a way with words solely based of their eyes alone. His eyes spoke more than his mouth ever has, at-least to you, and it took your breath away. You can't help but just stare back, practically feeling yourself getting lost.
Unexpectedly, he leans closer and in a whisper he speaks, "You're entirely too beautiful to be pitied."
His words were soft and kind, and everything you didn't know you longed to hear from someone else. You certainly didn't expect them to come from a man of his rank. For a moment you don't know what to say and you don't catch the smirk that inches onto his face as he gently pulls you from the dance floor, you not realizing the song ended.
Among the next hour that passes, you and the Viscount fall into effortless conversation. He tells you of his travels and many successes in his life. He also tells you his name, Jungkook. You would never call him by his name, of course, but the fact he even felt comfortable enough to tell you raised a certain spark inside of you. You learned that he's kind, smart, and also quite funny. He had you giggling more times than you can count at his quick wit and charming playfulness. He also learned quite a bit about you, that you love to read, you liked to take your horse out to the field and enjoy fresh air and nature in general. You also shared his trait of being goofy and playful as the two of you threw jokes at each other here and there throughout the night. The biggest thing he learned was that your giggle was a sound that he truly felt blessed to be able to hear, causing him to not be able to stop coaxing that sound from you with his words. He wanted to draw that sound from you all night, never wanting it to leave his head even for a second.
A couple more hours pass and you were so embedded into your conversations with Jungkook that you didn't realize the ball was coming to an end and people began spilling out of the ballroom. Jungkook watches as your curious eyes sweep across the room and observe everyone as they ascend back up the stairs and out into the hall.
You turn your head back to Jungkook, once again catching him already looking at you, and you nudge your head towards the exit, "I think it's time the night has come to an end."
"It doesn't have to end though," he blurts and your eyes slightly widen. You try to process what he means by that as he grabs your hand into his and leads you both out of the room.
As you make your way outside you instantly notice how chilly the air has become, feeling the way it slightly licks at your skin, leaving goosebumps in it's wake. Jungkook notices and inches closer toward you, hoping he can radiate some body heat your way.
"That's my carriage," he says and points to an elegant looking black carriage pulling up to stop in front of the two of you. How would it look for you to be getting in his carriage with him at the end of the night? You look around you, watching to see if anyone notices. Everyone already looked down upon you as it is, so how would they react if they noticed you riding away with their lovely Viscount?
You feel a hand at the small of your back, slightly causing you to jump when you realize Jungkook is carefully pushing you towards the carriage for you to get in. Damn what the ton thinks, you think to yourself. You were certain Jungkook wouldn't put you in a position to have you under such scrutiny. You hardly knew him but you trusted him.
He slightly gulps as he catches sight of the stockings you wore as you lift your dress a little to climb up into the carriage. It made his body shudder as he was confronted with the pure want and need he had towards you, and yet you were all the more oblivious. He knew he wouldn't be able to get that image out of his head for quite some time.
He climbs in after you, settling into the seat across from you and instructed his driver to take the two of you to the nearest park. Before you can question him, you stop as you notice the sheepish look on his face before he spoke, "I thought we could sit and talk a bit more."
You smile at his words and give a small nod, yet you find it hard to look away from him. Usually you loved to watch as the trees passed by while you rode, enjoying and taking in the nature around you, but you simply couldn't tear your gaze away from him. Evidently he couldn't either, his eyes boring into yours with a sort of intensity.
One minute he's sheepishly smiling at you like a boy being caught with his hand in the cookie jar, and the next he's looking at you like he wants to tear your clothes off in that very moment. Admittedly, it makes your head spin. You slightly adjust in your seat and his eyes snap down at the movement. He felt as if there was a fog in his head, weighing down so heavily that he couldn't think straight when looking at you.
"Thank you for being by my side tonight. It was quite unexpected but I very much enjoyed it," you said, trying to break the ice and the staring contest between the two of you.
He gives you a boyish smile and nods in agreement. "It was very nice," he states, "I wouldn't have wanted to spend my time with anyone else."
His words take you back slightly. He didn't even know you, and to be quite fair, he has never really showed an interest in you before, so why now?
"Why tonight?" you ask, your judgement getting the best of you and causing you to blurt the question before you can think twice.
He leans forward, elbows resting on his knees as he looks into your eyes, into your soul. "I know it must be a surprise that I've shown up out of nowhere tonight, but to be honest, I've had my eye on you since you first debuted into society."
Now his words really caught you off guard.
You shake your head in confusion and lean forward yourself. "What does that even mean?" you ask, "You've had your eye on me for two years yet never spoken a word to me. Why?"
He can't really give you the answer that you deserve when it came to that kind of question. He really didn't even know the answer to it himself. He knew he always wanted you but he never found the right time to make it clear to you.
"My duty as a Viscount has kept me very busy these last few years. I haven't been Viscount for very long so when that role was passed down to me, I had quite a few tasks thrown at me, on top of my journey's to other countries. I couldn't find the right time to talk to you." You slightly squint your eyes at his confession, still not fully grasping the fact of why he never once acted on the way he's telling you that he's felt for quite some time.
On the other hand, you were confused how he even had an interest towards you at all. You always thought the men were repulsed by you, hence the fact you were still unmarried, not even being courted by any of the men of the ton.
"I'm just confused," you start, "I've only seen you a few times and in those times I've seen you, you've never once noticed me."
You begin to feel nervous under his intense gaze, not being able to read the emotion that currently flashes in his eyes. "Not that you've noticed," he admits, "I've seen you many times and trust me when i say, I can't help but notice you when you are near."
He slightly scoots closer, carefully grabbing your slightly shaky hands to hold into his own. The feeling you have when he's so close or when he's looking at you the way he is, is a feeling you can't describe, but it's also a feeling that you don't want to stop feeling. Ever.
You look down into your lap where your hands are connected and smile at the way his thumb caresses your skin, "I thought all of the men around here were repulsed by me." You look up and meet his confused stare.
"How can you believe such a thing? You are absolutely one of the most beautiful women I've ever laid my sights upon," your breath hitches as his hand comes to cup the side of your face, his pinky finger tracing down the skin of your neck so gently, "I knew when I saw you that I needed to have you." The last sentence comes from his lips in a whisper and you almost feel as though you are in a trance, just staring into his eyes, not able to notice how close he has managed to get to you now.
Is this a dream?, you wonder.
Out of everything that has happened to you over the past couple years, including tonight, you knew only one thing. You wanted the Viscount. You wanted him more than anything you've ever wanted in your life and now that he's right in front of you, sitting so close you can feel his breath tickling your skin, you didn't care if it had been a dream. You suppose there's only one way to find out if you truly are just dreaming.
You lean forward a couple more inches and plant your lips onto Jungkook's, instantly sighing at the sweet taste of him. He wastes no time in kissing you back, reaching up to grip both sides of your face with his hands. Turning your head slightly, he gains more access to your mouth and can't help but run his tongue across your lips, almost begging you for entry, which you grant to him with no hesitation. He kisses you as if his life depends on it and you realize you've never felt so euphoric in your entire life until this very moment. You pull away suddenly and only now you notice how he has sunken to his knees before you, looking up at you as he anticipates your next move.
You've always loved looking at the man before you, even if you never noticed him looking back. You've always dreamed of the day you got to run your fingers through his silky hair-
Giving into your thoughts, you reach up and slowly bury your fingers into the tresses of his black locks, meeting his gaze half way as his eyes bore into yours, almost pleading you. This was the second time tonight that Jungkook has made you feel so powerful. The feeling was addicting.
You run your fingers through his hair and rest your hand on the back of his head, biting your lip at the sight of him so vulnerable before you. He groans and rushes in to push his lips against yours with a force that has your back resting against the seat now. He never lets up, kissing you as if he's scared you'll be pulled from his embrace any moment now. Goosebumps rise on your skin a second time tonight as his fingers inch across your collarbone and carefully push your dress down your shoulder.
He pulls away and almost whines at the sight of your skin becoming more exposed to his eyes. Who knew he would be so hard at the sight of a woman's shoulder, for Christ's sake. You didn't quite realize the affect you had on the Viscount just yet, but he intended on showing you.
As fast as he pulled away, he leans back in even faster, attaching his lips to the underside of your chin. His lips move across your skin with such fever, it practically makes your head almost spin of your shoulders. You've never felt such...bliss, and he was barely even touching you.
Almost as if he read your mind, his hand slowly travels down to your ankle, pressing his fingers against your skin, before his hand disappears under your dress and dances up your leg. The softness in which he touched your skin left a fire in it's wake, making you slightly shake in excitement. He gives a warm smile at your reaction, indulging in the sounds your heavy breathes make. He watches the way your chest rises furiously, suppressing a groan at the perfect sight that was you.
He gives a questioning look as his fingers reach the inside of your thigh and he doesn't even need to ask before you're already nodding your head, looking at him pleadingly, which further drives him even more mad for you. Your small hands grip the expanse of his broad shoulders, the same ones you were drooling over earlier in the day, and your head leans back, the feeling of his fingers ghostly dancing over the material of your undergarments. His lips finally press against yours once again as he firmly presses his fingers against you, drawing the most beautiful sound from your throat.
It was hard for him to believe how warm and soft you felt against his rough fingers. He presses his fingers even further against you, becoming addicted to the way you felt under his touch. In turn, more noises were drawn from you and he knew he would never get tired of the way you sounded. He pushes your dress up so he can see the way you look beneath him and the sight is enough to turn a man insane. The expanse of your think thighs adorned in the beautifully delicious stockings you chose to wear for the occasion, almost calling his name to keep his eyes on you.
"Please," you whisper.
His head snaps up when he hears your whimper, the look on your face taunting him, coaxing him to touch you further. Jungkook likes to think he's quite the strong spirit, but he's never felt weaker as he has kneeling before you now. He gives into the soft sounds you make just for him and pushes his fingers past your undergarments, fully touching you. You instantly gasp and push yourself up further into his embrace, shocked by the feeling that was currently running through your body. You've never been touched this way and you were almost angry that you didn't get to experience this until now.
The only barrier between the two of you is broken as he slowly pushes two fingers inside of you, watching intently at the faces you make. You let out a drawn out moan and pull him closer until his face is practically into your neck. He takes the opportunity to plant his mouth against your skin, feeling your pulse beneath his tongue, and you shudder at the warmth that consumes you.
"You're so perfect," he grunts as he pushes his fingers deeper, causing you to gasp for the millionth time. His eyes fall to your chest once again, watching it rise and fall almost in a pattern. He's thrusting his fingers into you faster, with more purpose, manually reaching inside of you for the delightful sounds you offer to him so easily.
You thread your fingers into his hair again, ever so slightly pulling when he reaches a spot inside of you that has your toes curling. He was making you feel so wonderful, a feeling you never wanted to go away. A feeling you wanted him to provide for you every single day as long as you live. Your eyes flutter open as you look up at him, the sight causing an unfamiliar feeling to bubble inside of you. His hair was slightly damp from sweat, his eyes producing a fire you've never witnessed, all the while his fingers moved inside of you much faster than before.
There's a feeling rising inside of you that causes you to arch your back and slightly constrict your legs around Jungkook's incredibly lean waist. The sounds are pouring from you now like a mantra as you desperately claw at his shoulders, pulling him impossibly closer to your form.
"You can do it baby," he whispers, egging you on before planting his face into your chest and beginning to take the supple flesh of your breast into his mouth. That's all it took to have you falling apart beneath him. Your muscles constrict and his name comes flowing from your mouth like a chant, further proving to him how undoubtedly perfect you were.
You lay still, breathing heavily as he removes his digits from your body and smooths your dress back into place. He carefully places your sleeve back up your shoulder and pushes a piece of hair behind your ear. You watch him the whole time, admiring how determined he looked. Your words were hidden in your gut as you keep your eyes on him. Soon, you realize his carriage stops before his house and you turn to him, confused.
Jungkook hops out effortlessly and holds his hand out to you. "Well, are you coming?" he asks.
Your eyes scan before his home, taking in the beautifully structured building. As you part your lips to ask him why you were here, he steps closer and gently caresses your chin in his hands.
"If you're to become by wife, you need to meet my family."

The Driskill Hotel {Chris Sturniolo}
Summary: fem!reader x bf!Chris go to Austin, Texas with Matt and Nick to film a video for Sam and Colby's channel at the Driskill Hotel. The reader is very sensitive to the supernatural and gets convinced to do the elevator ritual alone... What could possibly go wrong? ;)
Warnings: anxiety/panic attacks, ghostly encounters, fear of elevators, language, FLUFFFFF
A/N: I know this video is from awhile ago but I've had this idea and couldn't stop thinking about it. I started my page with imagines like this for Colby x reader and so I wanted to throw it back to my roots and make a Chris x reader (because I'm a die hard Chris girl)
Part 2??
You had been a fan of Sam and Colby for years, enjoying their content and being fascinated with their supernatural findings. There was always a part of you that was convinced you had a special connection with the supernatural, feeling extremely vulnerable and tethered to their world. Maybe it was due to your empathic nature, or maybe you were a undiscovered medium that hadnât tapped into your powers.
You never tapped into your "abilities" because you were scared of what could possibly come from speaking to the dead. But when Nick, Matt, and Chris (and yourself) got asked to join in for an XPLR video on Sam and Colby's channel, you all knew that you couldn't pass it down. This is what led you all to Austin, Texas where the historic, haunted, Driskill Hotel was located.
The night had started somewhat normal, you all walked through the hotel with a tour guide where she explained the history of the building as well as the ghost inhabitants. Throughout the tour you would catch glimpses of shadow figures on the wall, hearing inaudible voices, and being extra sensitive to smells like cigar smoke and roses. The fear was definitely building inside of you when you observed that none of the rest of the group seemed to be experiencing the same things you were. You did your best to hold it together, knowing the triplets were excited to be included in the video, and not wanting to ruin your own experience of an inner fangirl being on an XPLR trip.
As the tour wrapped up and the night went on, Sam and Colby began to lead the investigation portion of their video. You stayed glued to Chris' side, feeling comfort in his presence, even with everything going on around you. Chris held an EMF reader in his left hand as his right hand was busy interlocking your fingers, running his thumb over your knuckles soothingly. He couldn't tell if you were nervous or if you were just trying to hone in on filming the video since you were all a guest to Sam and Colby's channel.
You and Chris stayed slightly behind the group as you made your way over to the elevators on the main lobby for the next part of the video, the elevator ritual. The elevators had already been acting up earlier in the night, not wanting to take you guys up to the floor you had requested. Elevators weren't necessarily your favorite inventions, a slight irrational fear of being stuck in one or one falling with you inside.
"Matt, the ghosts seem to really like you. Maybe you should be the one to do the ritual." You heard Sam say, observing how the EMF in Matt's hand continued to light up to red as they crossed through the grand lobby. As you passed by the receptionist desk you saw the figure of a tall man dart across the wall, making you subconsciously squeeze Chris' hand out of fright. "What's up baby? You okay?" Chris asked softly, pausing in his tracks to check up on you.
"Did you see that?" You asked him back, hoping that maybe you weren't going as crazy as you thought you were. Chris furrowed his eyebrows, glancing around the rotunda, trying to see whatever it was you were talking about. "See what?"
You let out a shaky breath, your palms becoming clammy as all the supernatural sensitivity was beginning to catch up to you. The hand that was holding onto Chris' disconnected as you rubbed the sweat on your pants, "I keep seeing shadows on the walls..." Chris frowns at your reply, wrapping his arms over your shoulders and pulling you into a hug. His lips pressed a firm kiss on your forehead, "I won't let anything hurt you, I promise."
"Chris! Y/n! You guys coming?" Colby asked, staring at you two from down the hall where they had stopped in front of the elevators. "Yeah we're coming, sorry!" Chris responded, gently pulling away from the hug and instantly wrapping his hand back in yours. As you stood in front of the elevator doors Sam explained to the camera, and to all of you, what the elevator ritual would consist of.
"y/n, will you do the honors?" Sam questioned, pulling your out of your trance and causing your jaw to drop open. "Huh? What?" You stuttered, not registering what he had elected you to do for this ritual.
"Do you want to do the ritual?" He rephrased, looking at you with big, hopeful eyes. Your body tensed at the thought, not only did elevators terrify you, but you had already been experiencing paranormal things the whole night. "You don't have to if you don't want." Chris said, breaking the short silence that filled the room, knowing you were already on edge and trying to stand up for you in case you were wary about doing it. "Uh, yeah, I think I could do it... I would just need to write down the order of the floors." You said, uncertainty filling your voice.
"Awesome! I'll text it to you." Sam said, beginning to type up a message to send to your phone. A lump began to form in your throat as you awaited the notification being sent to you. Chris gently rubbed your lower back, doing his best to calm your anxiety without bringing too much attention to your state, understanding that you didn't like when others were aware of your intimate emotions. Your phone vibrated in your hand, looking down to see the message;
12:00AM
Sam: 4, 2, 6, 2, 10, 5, 1
"Okay it's exactly midnight, you have to start now." Colby said, pressing the up button and watching the elevator door open. You took the camera from him, not saying a word as you faced the elevator. You swallowed the lump in your throat, knowing there was no way you could back out of this now. Stepping into the elevator you instantly felt chills run up your spine.
"Now remember, when you get to the fifth floor a lady might join you. If she does then when you try to come back down to the lobby the elevator will actually go up to the tenth floor, that's how we will know it worked. If it comes back down to one then the lady didn't enter and the ritual failed." Sam said, reminding you and the audience how things were supposed to go.
Shakily, your finger made its way up to press the number four, officially beginning the ritual. The door slowly shut in front of you, keeping eye contact with Chris until you couldn't anymore. The elevator rose and the door opened, nobody was there. Floor two, nothing.
Sixth floor.
Second floor, again.
Tenth floor.
Then finally, the fifth floor. Your breath caught in your throat as the elevator door opened unusually slow, revealing an empty hallway. 'This is just a game', 'It's not real', you tried reminding yourself as your heart beat uncontrollably inside your chest. You waited for a couple seconds before pressing the button for the first floor, praying that this stupid ritual hadn't actually worked. The doors shut and the elevator began to descend back to the first floor, allowing you to let out a breath you didn't even realize you were holding. "I guess the ritual failed guys," You lightly giggled talking into the camera, feeling relief wash over your whole body.
"Woah!" You yelped, almost dropping the camera as the elevator slightly dropped, the lights inside flickering. The screen above the door signaling that you were on the third floor. Before you knew it the elevator came to a halt, stopping dead in its tracks on the third floor.
"What? Oh no, no, no, no, no..." You whispered, panic rising inside of you as you dropped the camera to the floor and made your way to the control panel. You smashed the button for the first floor over and over again, hoping the elevator would start to move again. Nothing was happening however, the buttons not even lighting up when you pressed them. You began to reach into your back pocket for your phone, pulling it out to call Chris.
The dial tone played as you dropped to the floor in a seated position, legs shaking beneath you. After three rings Chris' voice filled your left ear, "Hey babe, why did you stop on the third floor? We were waiting for you to come back down-" He said quickly before you cut him off.
"Chris! The elevator is stuck! I don't know what to do, I'm freaking the fuck out!" Your breath became labored as you heaved in and out, feeling like no matter how much air you inhaled it wasn't reaching your lungs correctly. "Woah, woah. Okay, calm down please! Just breath alright? Listen to my breathing!" Chris instructed, knowing you were on the verge of a panic attack.
He let out slow, steady breaths of air while your vision began to blur with tears. Your head started to heat up and your ears began to ring, "I-I can't Chris... I can't breathe!" You huffed, clenching your hand over your aching heart.
"The elevators stuck, somebody go try and find someone to help!" You faintly heard Chris yell to the other boys, holding the phone away from his ear so it wasn't directed to you. "Yes you can, I believe in you babe. Nick is going to get some help, okay? Just hang in there." He continued to comfort you through the phone, coaching your breath back to normal as Nick found an employee. After five minutes, which felt like an eternity to you, the elevator doors where being pried open. The elevator had stopped just barely off center to the second floor, making the door inoperable on your side.
When the doors were finally opened you couldn't help but let the tears you had been containing fall, all the overwhelming fear catching up to your eyes. The employee held out a hand for you as you jumped the three foot distance onto the second floor lobby, landing slightly unsteady as the tears blurred your vision. Chris rushed over to you, faster than you had ever seen him move before, pulling you deep into his embrace.
"There, there, I got you. I got you, don't worry." He said, running his big hand through your hair. Your arms wrapped tightly around his torso, scared that he might disappear if you didn't hold him close. Tears stained his jacket sleeve as you buried your head into his shoulder. You both stayed like that for awhile, the others watching as you crumbled into Chris' arms.
Once you had finally cooled down, you all sat on some couches that were in the main lobby. You drank some water that Nick had brought for you as you stayed by Chris' side, his arm wrapped over your shoulders. "Y/n, I am so so sorry that the elevator got stuck. I had no idea that was going to happen and I feel horrible. I didn't realize you were scared of elevators." Sam apologized to you, feeling guilty that he had put you in this position in the first place.
"Sam, it's not your fault! How would you have known the elevator was going to get stuck?" You said sincerely, appreciating his apology even though he had nothing to do with the unfortunate situation.
"If you guys need to call it a night and go back to your hotel, we completely understand." Colby said, offering to end the night where it was instead of finishing out the investigation. "No, it's okay. I'm good now, really. There's no need to scrap the rest of the video just because of me." You reassured, wanting the boys to finish the video they had put so much effort into already.
"Are you sure?" Chris asked you.
"Yes, I'm sure. Now who's ready for the Estes Method?"

Things That Remind Them Of You
Ot7 x Reader
Summary: The things that remind the members of you while on tour and make them call you up to tell you about it.
Warnings: none
A/N: Thanks to the lovely anon for this request! I hope you like it!
Masterlist
°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘Â°â˘
Jin: A little cliche for him, but food. Heâs always wishing he could take you to the different restaurants he gets to visit while traveling. Another is whenever he catches the scent of something that reminds him of your perfume. One whiff and heâs suddenly aware how long itâs been since he last spoke to you, whether itâs been five hours or five minutes, he doesnât care, he has to hear your voice again.
Yoongi: For Yoongi, what reminds him of you is almost always music. Your favorite song, a song you hate, the song you once sang so badly at karaoke that he cried laughing, even songs that donât seem to have any connection to you but just give the right vibe, each one has him reaching for his phone. You like to tease him that every song seems to remind him of you, and he chooses not to admit youâre right.
Hobi: Itâs the taste of his morning coffee. Heâs so used to hearing your voice first thing in the morning, still slightly groggy from sleep, sharing your plans for the day with him over your drinks of choice. He has to call you, he has to share at least this little bit of his day with you, otherwise everything just feels off for the rest of the day, like heâs missing something.
Namjoon: Similar to Yoongi, Joonsâ world is so immersed in music, so he tends to find himself calling you after shows or rehearsals, when his mind starts flicking through memories connected to certain songs. Some of them are heavier, others make him smile in spite of himself, like the one he wrote after your first night together when he realized you were the one.
Jimin: Itâs not necessarily something specific that reminds him of you, but more so certain times when itâs quiet, his mind immediately goes to you. Peace reminds him of you, of the sleepy late night conversations before you both fall asleep. He finds himself calling you in those moments to hear your voice, otherwise the quiet just feels wrong.
Taehyung: Itâs whenever he sees other couples, especially when heâs out sightseeing. He always wishes that you could be with him while heâs away on tour, but seeing other couples sharing special moments together makes him realize just how much he misses you all over again. He calls you up immediately, telling you all about what heâs up to and asking your thoughts on it, making it feel more like youâre there with him.
Jungkook: For Jungkook, itâs the most random things. One of the members did something funny? He has to text you about it immediately. He saw a cute dog while out to lunch? Heâs sending you a pic. At the end of the day, he still tells you about these things all over again when he calls before bed, but you donât mind. Sharing the little highlights of each other's days makes the distance between you feel the littlest bit smaller.

Vernon isnât blind.Â
He can see you out of the corner of his eye, laying flat on your back, several unexplained centimeters away from his side. With the duvet clenched in your fists, you stare intently up at the ceiling, like youâre waiting for it to move â or trying to move it yourself, telekinetically. You keep your bottom lip pinched between your teeth, as if you expect it to make a run for it.
So, yes, Vernon can see you.Â
He just canât figure out whatâs wrong with you.
For a few minutes, he attempts to pay attention to the documentary lighting up the screen on the wall ahead. You were the one that picked it â some wild tale about mother-daughter recluses in New York â and he finds it hard to give a shit about it without your usual commentary. Your hot takes are his favorite part of any movie night, after all.
Heâll be the first to admit that heâs never been good at keeping his eyes off you. Try as he might, he canât glue his gaze to the television; each glance in your direction sticks longer than the one before it, testing the waters. Minutes slip away just like this until he completely caves, turns his head fully, and stares at you outright.Â
You still donât seem to notice.
His brow scrunches up as he watches you, caught in the middle between concerned, confused, and amused by how absolutely ridiculous you look right now. When he speaks, he tries to sound stern, like he isnât fighting the urge to laugh.
âBaby?â
âHmm?â is all he gets in response.Â
You donât even look his way. If anything, you tense harder now that his attention is on you.Â
None of it makes sense. Not the weird gap youâve left between your body and his, your total refusal to look him in the eye, or the fact that there wasnât an argument to precipitate any of this distance. Itâs a symptom with no apparent cause, and itâs totally baffling. Brain-breaking, even.
Frowning, Vernon scoots himself across the bed to get closer to you.Â
You donât reciprocate.Â
He tugs gently at the hem of your sweatshirt in a silent plea for your attention and receives radio silence in response; unless he counts the way you swallow thickly.
Which, for the record, he does not.
This close, Vernon can feel the anxious energy pulsing out of your tensed-up body in waves, so he leans away and props himself up on his elbow. Desperate to know what broke you and how to fix it, he mutters, âWhat is happening right now?â
Ope.Â
It comes out harsher than it was supposed to, reading more like annoyance than worry, so he immediately clears his throat. Gently and with a brush of his knuckles against your hip bone, he tries again: âAre you okay? Did I do something to make you mad at me?â
A fly on the wall might get the wrong impression and think he stroked you with a live wire instead.
âOh, my god. No!â You sputter with a jolt, shifting gears quickly from vaguely on-edge to horrified. You shake your head so frantically that Vernon fears youâll detach it. âNo, you havenât done anything. Iâm fine, I just ââ
He interjects with a laugh, ââ I donât necessarily believe that ââ
Visibly cringing with every muscle in your body, you cover your face with your hands. Not long after you take a deep breath does a meek voice slip out through your fingers, sounding beyond embarrassed.
âIâm so incomprehensibly horny right now that I canât even look at you.â
For a second, itâs dead silent because he canât quite process how much of a weirdo you are, or how completely and hopelessly enamored he is with you. But then the dam breaks. His laugh comes out so forcefully that you pull your hands away from your face, eyes wide.
âIs that so?â He smirks, nodding his head towards the television. âGrey Gardens really gets your motor running, huh?â
Absolutely aghast, you swat at his bicep. Then, you sling your arm over your eyes and groan, âI got my period. It has turned me into a sex-crazed monster, I fear.â
Vernon nods in understanding, even though you canât see it, and hums, âAhh.â
And he leaves it at that, only because you seem to have more that you want to say. Something you want to ask, maybe, or a reason you may want to give for not jumping his bones at the first opportunity. Heâs down, he thinks without hesitation, so long as you are.
But you donât say anything.
Maybe you arenât actually down after all, and thatâs why you wonât look at him. Shit, are you embarrassed? Should I say something? Silence falls overtop like a weighted blanket, smothering the two idiots who canât tell whose turn it is to talk.Â
Do you or do you not want this right now?
You mumble something that he canât catch, so he nudges your side gently with his knuckles to encourage you. Just as nervous, you repeat yourself without looking at him, âPeriod sex is supposed to help with cramps, I think.â
He thinks heâs read the exact same article you have. More than that, he wishes youâd look over at him and see for yourself how completely unbothered he is by this concept.
âIf you think about it, itâs kind of like a natural lubricant,â you add in a voice thatâs even smaller than before.
Your shyness really might kill him, so he reaches over to grab your hand and gently pull your arm away from your eyes. Itâs the first time youâve looked at him since you laid down â since you put your self-imposed no-contact order in place â and he feels his stupid heart swell.
For what itâs worth, he feels his dick twitch, too.
You open your mouth to speak again, likely to continue your unnecessary campaigning; Vernon is having none of it. He tugs your wrist just enough to tilt you inward, then he kisses you hard enough to shut you up. A tiny whimper slips out of your lips when he pulls away, and it almost makes him regret his decision to do so.Â
But Vernon has a point to make, so thatâs precisely what he does: âI donât need a sales pitch. You will never â ever â have to convince me to fuck you.âÂ
Your eyes crinkle at the corners, like this is somehow news to you. It shouldnât be. Heâs told you a thousand times in as many different ways how thoroughly crazy you drive him just by existing so closely to him, but maybe you didnât take him seriously then.
To emphasize his point, he slips his hand under the hem of your sweatshirt and finds your bare waist with the pad of his thumb. It spirals slowly against your warm skin, making both of you dizzy. Then, sick of the distance, Vernon dips his head down to press a kiss to your temple.Â
âLike, ever,â he murmurs, lips following the curve of your jaw.Â
Soft, slow kisses trail behind him as he travels down to your lips. Your head tilts further backwards with every single one, providing him with more and more access.Â
He states it matter-of-factly because, to him, it is. âIâm down so bad for you that it might be terminal.â
âOh?âÂ
You try to laugh but turn to putty when his palm rests fully on the curve of your waist and pulls you flush against him. The surprised gasp you let loose confirms his suspicion: You can feel how serious he is, affirmation throbbing against your abdomen in time with his heartbeat.Â
Vernon smirks to himself, relishing your reaction, and bypasses your mouth entirely. A moan escapes from you, soft like an exhale, as his lips move slowly down the length of your neck. Every so often â just to feel you shiver â he flicks the tip of his tongue along the delicate skin he finds there.
âIt might be messyâŚâÂ
The rest of your needless warning gets lost in a dreamy sigh as he suckles at the spot where your neck meets your shoulder. Shifting even closer, your desperate fingers reach out and cling to his t-shirt.
Vernon licks a stripe over the galaxy blooming on your skin. He hums, hand traveling upwards from your waist, âDonât care about a mess.â
And he means it.Â
Mindful of any soreness, he smooths his hand over your left breast and massages it tenderly, swearing to himself that heâll throw the whole fucking mattress out if thatâs what it comes down to. For you, heâll race across town on foot to buy another one, and â fuck it â if the store is closed, he might just break in.
Youâre growing impatient; your fingers let go of his shirt and tangle themselves in his hair.
âSo needy,â he chuckles low in his chest, teasing. âYou know, I think youâre lying. I think it is this bat-shit insane documentary thatâs driving you wild, and youâre too embarrassed to admit it.â
âStop,â you whine, dragging out the vowel sound.Â
You donât, though; you throw your left leg over his right thigh and shimmy forward until your cunt grazes his dick. Involuntarily, he groans at the warmth radiating off your core. Every part of you drives him just the slightest bit insane. You seem to know it, he thinks as he watches your pupils dilate in real time.
But he can play games, too, so he rolls his hips forward and grinds against you. He pushes you further, âDonât get me wrong, baby. Iâm not kink-shaming you ââ
âHansol Vernon Chwe!â
Oh, shit. Government name?
ââ Iâm just a little surprised, I guess.â He sighs with a shrug. âThink you know somebodyâŚâ
Your impatience is scribbled all across your scrunched up face. It seeps into your voice when you crash back against the pillows and huff, âCan you please stop fucking with me and start fucking me?â
âSex-crazed monster, huh?â Leaning over, Vernon punctuates his question with a quick press of his lips to yours.
You whimper, âIâm so serious. I might explode.â
âThen go take care of whatever you need to take care of.â He kisses you again, smiling so fondly that his eyes may even be twinkling. âAnd Iâll go get a towel.â
You wait until Vernon clears the threshold before launching yourself out of bed at breakneck speed. Stumbling all the while, you race off to the adjoining bathroom and shut the door forcefully behind you. When it clatters against the frame, you finally admit to yourself that you might be a little bit eager.
Maybe.
Opting to keep your baggy, bleach-stained sweatshirt on, you wiggle out of your shorts and â what he refers to as â your crisis diaper. The high-waisted, frumpy, beige panties are utilized exclusively during your period, and to your surprise, theyâve remained spotless. Itâs only ever the pretty and expensive pairs that wind up as collateral damage, isnât it?
As they pool around your ankles, you canât help but think that Vernonâs nickname for them is pretty spot on. Thatâs partly why you figured he might need to be talked into this. Unsated arousal aside, you feel as far from sexy as you can possibly get.
You shake your head to clear your thoughts, kick what youâve discarded into a pile near the hamper, and let your sweatshirt shift down to cover as much of your ass as itâs capable of managing. You grab a square of toilet paper; then, you go to work excavating the wad of cotton that separates you from everything you want in this life.Â
It is within the realm of possibility that youâre a little bit eager and a little bit dramatic.Â
Perhaps.
After discarding the evidence in the small trash can under the sink, you wash your hands as if youâre about to step into an operating theater and not the bedroom you spend half your life in. When you finally feel sterile, you lift your head and catch your reflection in the mirror. Instantly, you make eye contact with the painful, hormonal pimple on your chin â the one youâve been waging a retinoid war against for days.
âBitch,â you mutter, like calling it names will be the one thing that finally gets it to shrink. Of course, your plan doesnât work, but you feel a little less powerless. Thatâs good enough, you think. At least, as good as itâs going to get.
Now half-naked and certifiably unobstructed, you tiptoe back to your bedroom much more carefully than you left it. Vernon enters from the opposite doorway at the same time, jumping slightly the second he notices you. You ignore his frightened eyes and glance down at the crisp, white towel heâs clutching.
You open your mouth to suggest anything otherwise, but he beats you to it. His eyebrows shoot up his forehead as his mouth widens outwards, a self-aware rectangle. Otherwise expressionless, he lets go of an atonal, âAaaaaaahâ, that tells you heâs caught on.
He says nothing else before turning around and walking back the way he came. You have to bite down on your lips to keep from cackling.
That oneâs mine, you think, still as infatuated as you were at the start. I chose that one.
While heâs gone, you try not to move, not to breathe too heavily. Vernon said he didnât care about a mess, but when he said it, he was speaking theoretically with his hand on your tit. It wouldnât be the first time heâd spoken recklessly with your body melting under his touch.
As far as you know, he hasnât had any experience with this mess in practice. He could wind up finding you about as sexy as you currently feel â to wit: not at all. So, erring on the side of caution, you turn yourself into a statue and wait for the boy and his towel to find you again.
When he comes back, he plants a drive-by kiss on your unsuspecting mouth before skirting right around you. With shocking finesse, he grabs the corners of the â thankfully â black towel, which unfurls in the seconds before he flicks it upwards. It lands perfectly in the center of the bed, flat without needing to be fussed with.
âWow,â he mutters to himself, taking in his clean work with raised eyebrows.
The impressed look is still on his face when he turns around, but you donât have time to comment on his feat because he laughs as soon as he sees you.
âKinda look like Donald Duck with the whole top-on, bottom-off situation.â
I chose this one?
You pout with an indignant gasp, crossing your arms over your chest. âIâm not wearing a sailor hat, soâŚ. bad analogy. Rude, even.â
âIâm sorry,â he murmurs as he snakes his arms around your waist and pulls you in close. You stumble a little on your way into him; the juryâs still out about whether itâs his hushed tone or the sudden movement that trips you up.
Between his thumb and index finger, he gently captures your chin. You follow along with his unspoken direction, tilt your face up to meet his. This close, you can see your own reflection in his pupils, black dilating against the warmest shade of brown youâve ever seen.
Vernon takes a moment of silence as he takes in your features, and he studies them so intently that his eyebrows crinkle on their own. He sighs, sounding so completely serious. âYou might get prettier every time I look at you.â
Itâs unclear if youâre melting, or gushing; and if itâs the latter, you canât say which biological process is at fault. Thankfully, the hand at the small of your back keeps your weak knees from buckling when his lips brush over yours.
âEven if youâre dressed like Winnie the Pooh.âÂ
You feel him smirk even before you hear him laugh at his own joke. Then, you feel his hand slide down to cup your bare cheek, squeezing affectionately. You want to tell him that this analogy is still inaccurate because youâre not wearing a crop-top; but he gently instructs you to ditch the sweatshirt and get on the bed, and your body moves automatically. No questions asked.
Carefully, you crawl up onto the mattress, then you center yourself on the towel. Still on your knees, you tilt your head curiously and ask, âWhere do you want me?â
âAnywhere,â he breezes, pulling his shirt off and tossing it onto the dresser nearby. He amends, âEverywhere. All the time, and then some.â
âBetter be careful,â you tease. âTalking like that might have consequences. You may never be able to get rid of me.â
His joggers are the next to go. Your sanity follows shortly thereafter, hungry eyes lingering on the imprint of his cock underneath his boxer briefs. You have to clamp your mouth shut to keep from drooling.
Brown eyes sparkling, he steps closer to you, kicking his pants aside as he goes. âBe careful,â he echoes, not a hint of cockiness to be found â just softness. âSaying it like a threat doesnât make me wish itâs not a promise.â
I choose this one.
Crossing all the way to you, Vernon reaches the bed and climbs up with significantly more grace than you did. The mattress dips under his weight as he kneels right in front of you, mirroring your posture and causing your stomach to flip with anticipation.
You canât help yourself; you lick your lips and look up at him with half-lidded eyes. âNaked, please. Like, right now.â
âDamn, I gotta do this myself?â Incredulous, he holds his hands up while glancing pointedly down at his underwear, then back at you.Â
You arch an eyebrow, unfazed.Â
âDepends.â You shrug. âDo you want to keep them? Because I really will rip them off of you.â
He concedes quickly; he always does. Sighing, he shakes his head and tuts, âSex-crazed monster,â before pushing his briefs down his thighs. His length hangs heavy between you, but you swear you can feel its perfect ache inside you already.
You have a one-track mind, so you donât hesitate to reach out and wrap your hand around him. A groan crawls up from the bottom of your chest when you feel the weighted warmth of his cock in your palm. You donât hold that back, either.
âFuck,â he sighs, head tilting as far backwards as itâll go. Unexpectedly, he laughs. He doesnât catch the quizzical look you shoot him, though he explains himself anyway, âYour hands are so fucking cold, but it feels so good.â
Swiping your thumb over his tip, you spread the pre-cum you find there down his shaft and stroke him slowly. He grows harder with every gentle squeeze, every pass of your fist.Â
âWeâre learning a lot of new shit about each other today.â You lean forward to pepper kisses across his collarbones. The hum of your mouth against his skin when you talk makes his cock twitch in your hand. âYou might have a temperature kink and a thing for Winnie the Pooh.â
He snorts, nowhere near serious, âShut the fuck up.â
âMake me,â you counter smugly, and you do mean it.
Vernon tilts his head forward to stare back at you. Youâre already turning into a puddle, but if the look he gives you says anything, itâs that your melting isnât enough for him. His voice is low and velvet-lined when he responds, âHow about I just make you cum instead?â
âThat could work, yeah.â You shrug.
He runs the pads of his fingers down each side of your waist to your hips, then back again; and each time he does it, you shiver. Reflexively, your back arches, chest pressing against his.
At this, he smirks, âIt could? Maybe?â
âWe can workshop it.â
âOr,â Vernon so generously offers, âYou can turn around and lay down on your stomach. You know, if thatâs sufficient.â
Itâs not until you whip around and flop down onto the towel that you realize you never responded with words. Oh well. You figure he gets the point, judging by the quiet laughter you hear as he settles with his knees on either side of your upper thighs.
You donât know what his next move will be â you donât care, either, as long as he moves in your direction â so you donât anticipate his palms flattening against your bare back, applying perfect pressure with his thumbs while he rubs away the soreness at the very base of your torso.
âOh, shit,â you moan, eyes fluttering shut as the heels of his hands work out the tension in your muscles. âHave you always been good at this?â
You feel his chest brush against your shoulder blades when he hovers over you. Against the nape of your neck, he murmurs, âNope.â
He kisses down your spine, mouth trailing after his hands as they work their way back down your body.
âLemme guess â you read an article? Studied up?â
You get a snicker, then an affirmative hum, then another kiss. This time, itâs at the curve of your spine, just above your ass. Seconds later, heâs kneading the doughy flesh of your cheeks until your whole fucking body tingles.
Thatâs when it hits you:
Under normal circumstances, Vernon would be face-first in your pussy by now. Devouring you in earnest, like heâs starving. He canât do that now â and you donât blame him â so heâs making up for what you both view as a loss.
God, you want him.
One hand disappears from you, but you donât have to guess where it went. You can hear the barely-there hiss of breath through his teeth when he takes his cock in that hand; as well as the very faint shift of his palm while he pumps himself.
âYouâre gonna have to navigate, baby. I dunno how sensitive you are like this, whatâs too much â any of that, so you need to tell me how you want me to move.â
Suddenly dizzy over how badly you need him, all you can muster is a nod. Vernon must want a verbal acknowledgment, though, because he leans back over you with one hand bearing his weight beside your head.
He kisses your shoulder and urges you, âPlease say so if you need to stop or switch it up. Donât wanna hurt you, sweetheart.â
âI will,â you breathe. âBut I canât even articulate how much I need you inside of me right now, so please â pretty please â fuck me.â
The tip of his nose bumps your temple affectionately. Right beside your ear, he teases, âWith a cherry on top?â And it vibrates down your whole goddamn spine.
âVernon!â You whine, burying your face in the comforter. Itâs muffled, but you warn him nonetheless, âDonât make me come back there.â
âAish. Calm down, sex monster.â
The instinct to twist around and glare at him over your shoulder is strong, but every feral urge you feel is stronger. So, when he tells you to spread yourself open for him and tilt your hips back, you do so without even a hint of complaining.
With the crown of his cock slipping through your folds, inching towards your entrance, you hear him curse under his breath. Suddenly self-conscious, you finally crane your neck to the side and glance back at him.Â
âWe donât have to,â you whisper. âIf itâs gross and you donât want to anymore, I get it ââ
He balks at your suggestion without letting so much as a beat pass. âNone of that, sweetheart; no spiraling. Iâm just trying to figure out the logistics of, like⌠how to survive how good this already feels.â
Struck dumb, all you can muster is a peep, âOh?â
âShit, yeah.â His response comes in a low groan. âCan you take a deep breath for me?â
Itâs a good call on his part, a suggestion youâre glad to have taken, because the pressure of him entering you is intense enough to knock the wind out of you. Empty lungs likely wouldâve led to your untimely demise.
You whimper, already overwhelmed with the combination of pain and pleasure; the best kind of ache. The little, breathy moans must freak him out, however, because his fingertips caress your waist as he checks in: âThis okay?â
Your limp arm lifts off the mattress, which youâve melted fully into, and you form a circle with your index finger and thumb to indicate that youâre okay. The light is bright fucking green; youâve just maxed out your capacity for speech.
Vernon continues his slow thrust forward, giving you ample time to adjust to his size.
âOh my god,â he grunts, âThis is â shit, I canât believe we havenât done this before. If I knew how good youâd feel like this, I wouldnât have waited around for you to ask me.â
That hits like a truck.
He was waiting on you.Â
You spent months convincing yourself that heâd need to be convinced, and chickening out before you could raise the idea. Months, and months, and months, of craving him during your werewolf transformation; wasting away over a shitty assumption that Vernon is anything like the people youâve been with before.Â
Christ.Â
His credit for putting up with you is long overdue.
Too tongue-tied to speak any of that out loud, you settle for a summary that you hope conveys the message: âI love you so fucking much.â
Mindful of how deep it will push him into your cunt, he leans down over you carefully. Weight balanced on his knees and forearms, he envelopes you in his body heat, trails kisses across your shoulder, and echoes your words back at you between each one.
âIs this too much?â He whispers, rolling his hips slowly.
You feel him everywhere, with every drag of his cock along your walls; and you canât tell where that throbbing sensation is coming from, him or you.Â
You shake your head and sigh, ââs perfect. Youâre perfect.â
Like he knows itâll unravel you, his large hand comes to rest over the back of yours. His fingers slip through the spaces between and squeeze you much more gently than the vice grip you hold on the bedding below you. He keeps holding you â just like this â through every movement.
The sensation of being this surrounded, this loved, this whole crashes over you like a wave and knocks you off balance.
âIâm so close,â you pant, voice as ragged as your breathing. Thereâs nothing that he isnât already giving you with every deep, deliberate thrust into your heat; but you beg nonetheless, âPlease, please, please ââ
His speed doesnât increase, but the intensity does. The smack of his hips colliding with your ass does, too, and you feel it reverberating in your bones. Buried as far inside of you as he can be, cock tip kissing your cervix with every high tide, length rolling across your g-spot with every low.
You cum so hard â so completely, invoking every single muscle you have â that you forget how to breathe. With a choked-out gasp, you squeeze your eyes shut and let your orgasm devastate you.Â
âFuck!â
Vernon gets caught up in the current, too, grinding desperately against you until heâs swept up in your wake. You feel him twitch inside you as his release floods, leaving you so lost in his warmth that you feel boneless underneath him.
His face winds up hidden in the crook of your neck, somewhere amidst the baby hairs that cling to the sheen of your sweat. You feel his lips fluttering against your skin when he laughs, âOhâŚmy god.â
âMmphf.â You nod weakly in agreement. Beyond blissed, your body still tingles too much to move.
Slurring, you add, ââs good. âs reallyâŚâ
The rest of that thought dissolves into something between a moan and a yawn.
Just as tired, Vernon pats your ass cheek affectionately and mumbles, âWell said. No notes.â
You tilt your head far enough to free your face from the sheets. When you do, you find your boyfriend fighting a losing battle to keep his eyes open. In the rare seconds he can, he looks back at you in a daze that seems even more adoring than it does fuck-drunk.
âI think I need to hibernate now,â you announce. âThink you just fucked me so well that I need to take a sabbatical.â
He counter-offers, âShower first, then sabbatical?â
You wiggle so that you can pull your joint hands to your mouth. You canât kiss him properly while heâs laid out on top of you, but you can press your lips to the back of his hand and hope he feels how much of you that you pour into it.
âOkay, but, likeâŚ. whoâs carrying who?â

JJK Men React to Finding Out You Like Them
G.Satoru, G.Suguru, I.Yuji, F.Megumi
(I got carried away with Gojo's.. mb)
đâš Ö´ÖśÖ¸
G.Satoru: You could not stand him and his stupid, annoying, ugly (undeniably pretty) face.
Shoko and Geto swore you two bickered like an old married couple. The two of you would scoff, sometimes even pushing each otherâs shoulders just to remind the other one who was stronger. It was down right childish the way you both interacted with each other. Pinching and hair pulling. Arguing over who was right and wrong, sometimes even arguing against obvious facts just to piss the other one off. You couldnât stand his pompous attitude and he couldnât stand the fact you werenât in awe of him like he believed you should be. He made every hair on your body stand straight just by his voice or the way his figure loomed over you as he teased you.Â
âWhatâs this for?â He mocked, pinching your cheek you dusted with blush.Â
âNone of your business,â you assured him, attempting to punch him in the gut. He would swiftly dodge it, continuing to mock you.Â
âSurely it isnât for a boyfriend. I feel bad for any guy dumb enough to be interested in you,â his glasses would slide down his nose as he looked over your figure. You didnât hesitant to tell him to suck a dick, and it didnât even cross his mind to not tell you that you wished you could suck his. âIâd never let you though,â he assured you and you would huff out a âthank God!â. You would attempt to storm off, but he kept body blocking you, and you were adamant on not making bodily contact with the guy. âWhere are you going?â he quizzed and you begged him to drop it - that it was none of his business. You were getting really worked up, more so than usual. His assumption wasnât necessarily wrong, you were trying to leave for your date with a barista from the coffee shop you frequented in Tokyo. âIf you wonât tell me, Iâll have to let Sensei know. Canât have you up to no good.âÂ
âThen go tell him!â you huffed. You were going to be running late if the asshole in front of you wouldnât move. âGod Gojo, you are so childish,â he only stuck his tongue out at you. You were about to start shaking with anger and against your better judgment you confessed to him. âFine! Itâs a date, make fun of me all you want when I get back,â your chest was heaving and your blood was hot. To your sudden shock, Gojo stepped out of your way wordlessly and watched as you took off out the doors.Â
The next few days felt like the Twilight Zone. You did your makeup again and Gojo didnât even bother to flick your cheeks. When you mentioned to Shoko how nice the weather was, he didnât argue that it was âJust alrightâ. While Suguru, Gojo, and you were taking turns sparring, he didnât hide the defeat in his face when you kicked dirt onto him after knocking him on his ass. To you, that was really the last straw. You started to feel evil for continuing your usual antics while he just took it. A few more days went by of you both ignoring each other until one afternoon you were eating lunch with Shoko talking about your date. Geto and Gojo took their usual seats across from you as you both discussed what transpired. âMaybe he doesnât want to sound needy,â she said when you mentioned he hadnât texted you back still.Â
âHe probably thinks you're ugly,â Gojo said nonchalantly. It was the first sentence he had spoken to you in days and you had to keep your jaw from dropping to the floor. You werenât even sure if he really spoke or if you imagined it. Perhaps your brain was filling in the words you wanted to hear from him. Not that you wanted him to call you ugly per se, but the silence from him was worse than the insults.Â
âSo he talks.â His eyes rolled cartoonishly at your words. He stuck a spoonful of rice in his mouth before talking,
âGiv-up,â he mumbled, some rice spilling out of his mouth. Your face contorted with disgust. He swallowed, continuing, âYou're unlikeableâ.
âYeah âcause youâre so likable yourself,â you scoff. He continued eating and the table dropped it, all choosing to change the topic.Â
Honestly, you were sure that would be your last conversation with Gojo. You went about your days without his obnoxious presence. You went on another date and were getting fairly close with your favorite barista, even inviting him to meet Shoko. You all agreed to meet up at his cafe and you were awed as he described to you the drinks he made you two. You sipped them and listened as he rambled on about the ristretto shots and the milk foam. Shoko grew bored quickly, but she was happy you were happy.Â
The bell attached to the door chimed, and the blood in your face drained, leaving you sickly pale. Gojo waved to you, pointing out to Geto where the three of you sat and dragged him along. âWhat is he doing here?â you frantically asked Shoko. She covered her face to hide her amusement, she had to give it to him, he was about to make this deathly boring conversation into an incredibly entertaining one.Â
âSince when do you drink coffee?â Gojo asked you, pulling up a chair and sitting next to you. âI thought caffeine made you sick?â he pouted at you, pulling away the latte. He wasnât wrong, you did tend to feel unwell after having caffeine, but since when did he care?Â
âI can handle myself, Gojo,â you spat. Gojo ignored you, taking two big gulps from the mug and finishing it then and there.Â
âWow you made this?â he asked the guy. He nodded, looking incredibly confused. âTastes like shit.â With a quickness you were out of your chair and pulling Gojo by the collar of his button down. âBe right back,â he snickered to the barista as you dragged him out the door.Â
âWhat is your problem?â You begged. He looked shocked, telling you him and Geto were just walking by when he saw you and Shoko. You were bewildered by the way he was acting, completely stumped as to what you should even say. His hand grabbed yours that was still gripping his collar. He pulled it off and pushed it against the wall, his hand caging yours as he leaned against your intertwined fingers. His eyes watched your lips as you kept opening them to speak, but closing them when you kept losing your words.Â
âIs this not what you wanted?â His words were breathy and hard to hear. âI know you are doing this-â His free hand gesturing to your figure, âto get a reaction from me.â
âYouâve really lost it now, Gojo,â you couldnât hide the blush though. He smiled at you regardless, and your legs began to feel weak. It hit you like a truck. His smile was cocky and genuine. It wasnât coated with his usual delusional smirk, but an all-knowing, teeth-showing grin. It was then you grew nauseous with the knowledge Suguru snitched on your drunk confession.Â
You hardly remembered that night - Geto had shared his bottle of Jack Danielâs and you were too much of a lightweight to keep yourself from admitting to him that you enjoyed Gojoâs teasing. That you were infatuated with the white-haired sorcerer and you had really started to like him. That his cocky attitude was not a turn off like you tried to convince yourself and that when he stood over you, making you feel small, you werenât mad at him but mad you enjoyed the feeling of being towered over by him.Â
âIâm not dating just to make you jealous,â you tried to stand up for yourself. You really werenât, the guy just asked you and you had nothing better to do. You got free drinks out of it too- really that was all it was.Â
âHow could I be jealous when I know you like me?â
In Suguruâs defense, when you called him a traitor he assured you it was an accident. He just wanted to get Satoru out of his funk. The day he caught you looking all dolled up, just to find out it was for another man, he couldnât get out of his own head. He also didnât understand why he couldnât. He pestered his best friend for days over it and Suguru had to throw in the towel. You liked him because he heard it from you. And Satoru liked you because he knows his best friend more than anyone.Â
It was all worth it in the end, because things went back to normal. (Except for the small detail that Satoru and you were now a couple).Â
đâš Ö´ÖśÖ¸
G.Suguru: The older boyâs reaction made you swoon.
You were a year below him at Jujutsu Tech and you were in awe of his cursed technique and if you were forced to be honest, in awe of him. You mustâve looked like a lost puppy following him around when you insisted on watching him train, joining him to find a snack at the convenience store, and insisting on learning about all the curses he had under his control. He was so kind about it too - always dismissing Gojo when he would groan about how insistent you were. âHow can you put up with her? She doesnât have her own life,â he would say, poking his tongue out.
 âSheâs just curious, Satoru,â he would reply. He wouldnât kid himself though, he found you absolutely adorable and didnât mind having you under his arm all day. You werenât much younger than him, but you felt as though he held infinite wisdom. Your eyes would twinkle up at him as he shared stories of his missions and his lips would tingle watching yours twitch with âoohsâ and âahhsâ. He adored the way you would watch him as he ran around the track, shirtless and dripping with sweat. When you joined him he couldnât help but keep your pace just so he could keep his attention on you. You didnât know this when you finally confessed, but he was as infatuated with you as you were with him. He was obsessed with how obsessed you were with him. He was by no means struggling in attracting women, but to have you be so casually faithful to him, it was too hard to not take advantage of.Â
The day you decided to dress up really pretty for your weekly Tuesday walk to Tokyo for lunch at his favorite place was the day you officially confessed. You wore the skirt the two of you saw one day while window shopping - the one he said reminded him of something you would wear. You even applied lip gloss even though you despise the fact your hair always gets stuck in it. âWhatâs got you looking all pretty?â he would muse.Â
âSugu, I like you,â you admitted, quick like pulling off a bandaid. You hadnât even made it out of the schoolâs grounds when you confessed. He held out his arm to stop you and blocked the way with his tall figure.Â
âI already knew that, little one,â he cooed. âLetâs go, we donât want to be late,â he grabbed your small hand in his and continued forward. It wasnât an official response, but you knew him so well that it was official enough for you.
đâš Ö´ÖśÖ¸
I.Yuji : You swear the boy must be dumb.
Your friends would definitely describe you as the shy type. You never talked out of turn or made your true feelings known so blatantly - but with Yuji - you were really trying. If Yuji said he was hungry, you would always be there to hand him his favorite candy. When his face was caked with dirt and sweat after a mission, you were there with a cloth to clean him up. If he so much as got a paper cut you would insist on applying a bandaid to his finger. You couldnât tell if you liked helping him more than he liked being helped. He would always smile at you, warm and sincere. His eyes would hold yours, cheeks flushed a light pink. The way he would look at you, head angled down to get a good look at your face, the innocent scrunch of his eyebrows..
âYouâre such an amazing friend,â he would say and you had to blink to keep your eyes from rolling back into your head.Â
One day as he was happily sipping the ice cold tea you bought him, munching on the little pastry you went out of your way to get after he announced - very loudly - how starved he was, you decided enough was enough.Â
âI like you,â You told him bluntly. He finished chewing his last bite before telling you he liked you too.Â
âYouâre a really good friend,â he smiled. You could feel your body begin to shake as you repeated what you said.Â
âI like-like you, Yuji. Not friend-like. Like-Like.â Your hands went to grip the grass beneath you, desperately trying to ground yourself. His eyebrows scrunched, as if he was trying to process your confession. You couldnât hold his eyes when he didnât immediately respond. You turned your attention to Maki and Nobara who were training not far in front of you. Your eyes couldnât focus on their figures as your body shouted at you to get up and bury yourself in bed for the day. His hand found your thigh, and you jumped slightly. When your eyes met him again, you swore you never saw him look so serious. His lips were in a thin line, eyes twinkling.Â
âMaybe I like-like you too,â he spoke only above a whisper and you melted on the spot.

F.Megumi: The boy was always in his own little world
Thatâs what you really liked about him. His ability to be quiet, observant, and at times lost in his own thoughts. All though, trying to get him to notice your crush on him would be harder than pulling all of your toenails off one by one. You would lay in Nobaraâs bed as she admired the outfits she bought that day, trying her best to ignore your groans.Â
âI should just give up now,â you whined. You had finished a long winded rant about Megumi, how he never reacted to your attention in the way you craved him to.Â
âYou should give up. Iâm sick of hearing it,â Nobara lovingly teased. âOr you could just tell him,â You would gasp at the idea and bury your head into her pillow.Â
You always found yourself to be the type of girl to read everyoneâs feelings. People were like books to you, except for him. Before joining Jujutsu Tech, flirting was second nature to you. But when you saw his messy black hair and cold blue eyes your brain short circuited. You sure would try to flirt though. Giggling at his jokes he thought no one heard or playing with your hair in conversation. You would buy a new perfume and ask him to smell you, or ask if he liked the way you did your makeup that day. He would flush red and obey your asks. He would tell you that you smell great or that your eyelashes looked really pretty, but he would end it there.Â
A couple days had passed since your rant to Nobara and the four of you were out in Tokyo. Yuji had insisted you all join him to the movies, and with nothing better to do you all obliged. At the theater you paid for your drink and popcorn and made your way to your movie when you noticed Nobara and Megumi werenât following behind you. You shrugged it off and sat down with Yuji to watch the previews. The lights had already dimmed and the movie just started by the time Nobara came with Megumi in tow. âSit,â she commanded him, referring to the spot next to you. You watched as Megumi - stiff as a board- took the seat beside you, and continued to shuffle around in his seat trying to get comfortable.Â
âWhat happened?â you whispered to him, scared of what Nobara had done to make him act so odd. He didnât respond and kept his eyes glued to the screen. It went on like that for a while, him still squirming awkwardly in his seat and when a jump scare came on screen and he didnât react you turned to him again. âYou act like you saw a ghost,â you joked to him. He replied dead serious.
âJust saw Nobara, thatâs all.â
âWhat did she do?â You werenât really sure you even wanted to know. After what seemed like hours of silence he asked if you really did like him.Â
âIs it true what Nobara said?â Your mouth fell open and he was now completely facing you. You were all there for a screening of a horror movie and right now the main character was in a dark basement making it hard to see any light on Megumiâs face. From what you could see though, he looked flustered but maintained his eye contact with you. Thanks to Nobara it was now or never, and you meekly shook your head at him. He scratched the back of his neck and you could see his Adam's apple bob in his throat. Your face was hot watching him process your confession, not sure if you wanted to punch Nobara or thank her for finally putting you out of your misery. Even if it did mean Megumi no longer wanted to be near you. âIâve just never had someone tell me that,â he finally spoke. âI donât hate you, just give me time to process that,â he asked. You nodded and turned back to the screen, trying to focus on the protagonist dodging death. You had grown as stiff as him and noticing, he put his hand on your thigh, squeezing it lightly as reassurance. You both were red in the face, eyes glued to the front of the theater but not actually watching what was on it, lost in your thoughts. The process wasnât smooth for you two, but your confession made Megumi realize his own feelings. Why he felt nervous when you were in the room and why he doubted his words before speaking to you. You both worked on it together, and your confidence with each other grew. It wasnât long before you two went to Tokyo alone or sat in each otherâs room late at night just talking. Megumi was your boyfriend by the end of the year, and you felt as giddy around him as the day you first met him.Â

Not Into Guys
Regina George x Lesbian!Reader
Word Count: 1k
Trigger Warnings: Aaron Samuels (i'm joking, they're besties), underage drinking
Request:
Can I please request a fic where Regina is like âI know your secret you like Aaronâ and super flirty reader is confused and like âWhy would I like him when youâre hereâ and Regina is shocked and itâs super cute and theyâre gay for each other!
Mean Girls requests are open.
This all started because of a rumor accidentally started by none other than Gretchen Wieners. "I heard her flirting with Aaron Samuels. She called him her boy toy." Gretchen informed Regina who crossed her arms, leaning back in her chair in thought. It wasn't hidden information that Regina George liked (Y/n). Regina thought they had a thing. Obviously, she was wrong if (Y/n) claimed Aaron to be her 'boy toy.' As she listened to Gretchen go on about everything she had heard, Regina's icy blue eyes landed on (Y/n) as she made her entrance into the classroom.
Typically, Regina had only kind things to say about (Y/n). Unfortunately, her entering with Aaron seemed to cause anything nice to leave her mind as she narrowed her eyes at them. She just couldn't understand why anyone in their right mind would choose Aaron over her. She was gorgeous, popular, and rich. However, Regina supposed that Aaron was kind and funny. People didn't usually associate Regina with those two attributes. Instead, they associated her with beautiful but mean. Which, was right, of course. Regina just hoped that wasn't something (Y/n) thought of her. She wanted (Y/n) to like her the way she did (Y/n).
"This class is kind of lame. I might leave before it starts," Regina interrupted Gretchen, hoping she would stop talking about (Y/n) and Aaron. If she had to hear any more information about them being together, she would either vomit or kill Gretchen. There was a possibility that both of those scenarios were likely, and she would commit both rather than either. Fortunately, the honey blonde beside her seemed to catch on, and she stopped talking about them. "It's not like I'm ever going to actually need geometry. I have people to do my math for me."
Karen nodded enthusiastically at the point that she made. Regina could easily ask Cady if she needed someone to look over floor plans. She was above math, she decided. Aaron had left once the bell rang, leaving (Y/n) by herself at her desk. A small, devilish smirk crossed Regina's lips as she stood up. "(Y/n), I was thinking about skipping class. Would you like to join us?" Regina questioned, and it didn't take a second thought for (Y/n) to accept the invite. Just like Regina, she didn't necessarily care for math. Instead, she would rather escape the confines of those four walls that held math puns and math memes due to the teacher trying to fit in. Karen and Gretchen were about to follow Regina out before she told them to stay. She had some things to talk to (Y/n) about. Specifically, things involving Aaron Samuels and why (Y/n) thought that Aaron was better than her.
Regina would never deny the fact that she was the jealous type. She had decided a long time ago that (Y/n) was going to be her girlfriend, Aaron wasn't going to ruin this plan with his boyish good looks or boy-next-door kindness. That was why Regina brought (Y/n) to the mall, to show off her money in an attempt to woo (Y/n). An attempt that failed as (Y/n) had to assure her over and over again that she didn't want anything Prada or Gucci. Regina was beginning to wonder how attached (Y/n) was to Aaron. If she couldn't convince her to date her over name-brand items, how was she going to convince her to date her at all?
"Okay, what's wrong, Regina?" (Y/n) questioned once they got to the food court. She was starting to grow concerned when Regina didn't comment on how badly styled the mannequins were like she usually did. She was starting to think that maybe it was something that she was doing wrong. If Regina would communicate with her, she would be able to accommodate and change whatever she was doing that was bothering Regina. "I feel like I've done something to upset you."
Regina realized she was beginning to let what Gretchen said about (Y/n) and Aaron get to her. However, instead of being able to keep it in, she was expressing it. A smile crossed her lips as she played it off. "Everything is fine, you did nothing wrong. Now that we're here, though, we can have girl talk." The two girls sat down, confusion bubbling (Y/n) at how quickly Regina changed her mood. "I know you're secret⌠You like Aaron Samuels." Regina stated confidently, looking down at (Y/n).
(Y/n), on the other hand, was only growing more confused. She wanted to laugh because of how confident Regina had said that. It was completely false. "Why would I have a crush on Aaron when you're here?" She questioned, crossing her arms as she looked up at Regina. It was unintentionally smooth. It caught Regina off guard as her cheeks began to heat up slightly at what she had said. "Aaron is my best friend, and I'm a lesbian." (Y/n) told Regina, wondering why she even thought she was remotely into him.
"Didn't you say he was your boy toy though? I've had great sources tell me this." Regina claimed. She sometimes needed to remind herself that Gretchen took information and ran with it. (Y/n) smiled a bit as shook her head. Leaning in, she kissed Regina, who reciprocated happily. She could hear her heart beating in her ear as she tried to keep herself from messing the kiss up by smiling at it. "Okay, okay, fine⌠You're not into Aaron."
(Y/n) laughed a bit at the comment before Regina pulled her back into a kiss. This time, she kissed deeper, not as nervous as the first time. Though, her heartbeat remained loud in her ears as they kissed. Regina couldn't care less if anyone was scowling, because all that mattered to her in that moment was how (Y/n)'s hands felt as they cupped her cheeks.

read requests are open and DIVED in them lmaoaoa.
anyway can I request a lando x reader where reader is a famous twitch streamer (preferably italian) and she keeps saying she hates Lando Norris but literally follows him on every social, has plenty of McLarenâs legos etcâŚ
Her fans mocked her when she received a sweater from Quadrant and wore it offen (and things like that)
(Btw Lando secretly watches her)
Warnings: Fake hate
Pairing: Lando Norris x streamer!fem!reader
Summary: I made this kinda smau but also fic and also text lmao
Face Claim: Tyla (my wife đ¤đ¤đ¤đ¤đ¤đ¤)
âChat this is flabbergasting,â you rolled your eyes, reading the messages as they poured in. Almost all of them mentioned Lando. Youâd interacted a few times on social media and knew him as Lilyâs boyfriendâs teammate in F1. And as soon as you met the cocky shit, you werenât his biggest fan. âIâm trying to put my architect face on, and we have yâall yapping about that dude,â you giggled, pulling the box out of the bigger one.
âSweet,â you tapped the box, showing the screen. It was a mini Lego McLaren that youâd been sent by one of your fans. There was a little message tagged on the bottom, cute. âRight, guys,â you tried to hide your smile, âI donât want a Lego set that says âLando wants you so badâ!â you throw your head back, laughing. âThereâs another parcel in the box,â you read off the screen, tapping your chin. âSo there is,â you shrugged, pulling a black hoodie out of it. âWhat? Max,â you groaned, seeing the handwritten note by one of your friends on it. Wow, a quadrant hoodie.
y/n-updates
caption: y/n was seen wearing the quadrant hoodie she was gifted by Max Fewtrell in 5 different streams
user1: omg sheâs so prettyyyy
user2: ngl her and Lando always mention each other (even if they say they hate each other) on stream
-> user3: theyâd be so cute lmao
user4: SHIPPPPPPP
martingarrix: hm đ¤
-> user5: WHAT DO U KNOW MARTIN
-> martingarrix: hm đââď¸
-> user6: MARTINNNN
-> martingarrix: hm đ
The rumours never seemed to cease. Not that you necessarily wanted them to. You DID like Lando. And Lando liked you. You were both aware of that, which was probably why you were dating. And endlessly teasing your fans by suggesting something then downright proving it wrong was hilarious.Â
The fans hated it. They didnât know you were dating though. So what better way then to go on stream with the entirety of quadrant and spill a few beans. âWell, well,â Max said, pausing the game, âwe have ourselves a very special guest,â all the rest of the gamers online started whispering. âPlease welcomeâŚ.Y/N!â everyone of the streamers had a reaction. Except Lando, he just giggled. âHey love,â he muttered, resuming his own game, ânice collection,â he gestured vaguely at the Lego cars behind you.
âNotice none of them are yours,â you mused, making him scoff. âAlright, babe,â he shrugged, âtell yourself that,â. You shrugged. âOh shit, got to go, guys,â you faked, an amused smirk on your face at the comments freaking over Lando calling you âbabyâ and âbabeâ. âShame, love,â Lando muttered, still flicking along his keyboard. Oh, how you loved chaos.
