since it was the rock who brought him back for that special black adam post credit scene (i’m assuming he championed for it, no one come for me), can he also just slam a metal chair at james gunn and peter safran’s heads?
i am so fucking pissed at WB. i get the change and everything but i fucking cried seeing henry again in the superman suit? shed tears seeing him return after hearing rumors or recasting and basically not seeing his face in the dceu and since zack snyder’s justice league (softly yells to bring back zack to take over the helm of this franchise). i get for a reboot. i truly do, it’s business and dc’s been muddy with it but what i love that dc does that marvel doesn’t is the standalone films. they don’t necessarily inter-connect and give you a feel for a character and gives writers/directors the freedom to do a different take on a character. joker? shit was awesome. rpatz’s batman? phenomenal. hearing a man of steel 2 movie in the works got me excited cause henry does play superman/clark kent with amazing talent (all superman’s are amazing to me btw!) and can tell he loves the character. i understand wanting to do an early superman film. that’s great, id love to see that too. i don’t understand why the two couldn’t exist. man of steel 2 could’ve been a different take or dove into a certain superman storyline from the comics and same with the early superman film. they don’t have to connect. two takes on superman, that’s all i see it as. i just personally love seeing various takes and interpretations of these characters because it’s fun to see writers go nuts with ideas or take inspiration from real life, art, etc. for these characters. it’s what makes them fascinating.
henry, im sorry you got fucked over by a couple of people who just simply don’t know what they lost and don’t remember that it’s us fans who fill the seats. hopefully we’ll see you back as superman down the road! (i secretly hope you hop to marvel and make a movie so amazing that wb will slap themselves for not keeping you) thank you for playing superman/clark kent and you deserve better ♡
overall, fuck you james gunn and peter safran. someone please hit them with metal chairs

hello! may i request charles smith headcanons where fem!reader has a crush on him and is always trying to make him laugh because his laugh is perfect 🥺❤️
sorry these requests are taking so long, i wanted to get back into writing the minute exams were done but work has been chaotic so these are super rushed. pls enjoy some fluffy charles headcannons for making him laugh <33
Tumblr media
It’s a well known fact that Charles’ laugh is absolutely adorable and totally contagious.
That being said there’s not many who have the ability to make this beautiful gentle giant laugh.
Many of the gang members have made him smile, especially Arthur, John and Sadie but there are few who make him laugh.
Everyone in the gang knows or at least suspects your crush on Charles and they all totally root for you and encourage you to ask him out.
Sean totally has bets with some of the members about when you two will finally be a couple and while it makes you go bright red at the thought, its heartwarming to know that your family support you.
You try everything in your ability to make him laugh and so far you’ve come up short.
It’s not that Charles doesn’t like you, on the contrary you two are like best friends and outlaws in arms but he’s just not big laugher.
Your teasing and your lighthearted dad jokes never bring out a chuckle from him nor do your one liners work to make him laugh, only smile.
Of course, Charles smile is one of the most beautiful things you’ve ever seen but ever since you heard him laugh months ago, you fell in love with the man that much more.
You always try to make him laugh when you’re out at the saloon with the gang or when you’re around the campfire sharing stories but you’ve come up short each time.
Eventually, you hear his laugh entirely by accident. You and Charles were on a job together, riding out to rob a stagecoach while planning to do some hunting on your way back to camp.
You’d been excited all morning about your newest outfit, deciding that you’d saved enough from jobs to spoil yourself in a fancier pair of pants and a new leather jacket.
Charles was happy to see you so happy and you couldn’t help but blush slightly when he told you how badass you look and that it suited you.
You didn’t think much of it during the robbery until after all the armed gunman were taken out and you and Charles were riding back to camp.
The wheel of the wagon caught on a rock and you ended up slipping off the side and landing face first into a pile of muddied rocks, leaving your new white shirt, fancy black pants and brand new leather jacket ruined.
You were expecting a gasp of concern, maybe even worry from Charles who took it upon himself to care for the man.
For some unknown reason you heard laughter, Charles’ laughter more specifically and it never failed to make your heart skip a beat.
He’s apologises for laughing of course, wiping his eyes as he helped you up from the mud and using his neckerchief to clean the mud from your face.
Your face is both grouchy and embarrassed, feeling flustered from hearing him laugh while being equally pissed about your new expensive outfit.
Charles laughs softly under his breath, making up some cool story about how you got all muddied in the middle of the shootout so your dignity could be saved.
Despite his teasing Charles takes you out on what is technically your first date, paying for you to get another outfit for you.
He kisses your cheek and tells you how amazing you look wearing it, smiling fondly at you as you realise this man adores you.
On your way back home after an amazing day you realise how easy it is to get him to laugh as you realised all you have to do is be yourself around him.

Hello there! I’m back with another request. Can you write some headcanons of Michael, Jason, Bo and Bubba if their S/O was an artist? I’m an artist and I would love to see their reaction if I showed them one of my latest drawings.
Yay.. ok so I’ve got a few requests for this (from a shy s/o to a confident one) so I kind of mixed them together :) also btw I don’t write for Bubba but I will write for all the others, plus more! hope you enjoy 🔪💕  
MASTERLIST
SLASHERS WITH S/O THAT LOVES TO DRAW OR IS AN ARTIST
INCLUDES JASON, MICHAEL, BO, VINCENT, and CHROMESKULL
Tumblr media
JASON VOORHEES
First of all living where you do at the cabin there is so much inspo from deer, to the lake, to changing of the seasons.. It is honestly the best place for an artist
Jason always noticed a black notebook lying around with pens and pencils on every other surface, and you were oddly protective of the book, so he left it alone respecting your boundaries
Sitting with him in the quiet cabin Jason loved the sounds of the pencils scratching along the paper, and he loved to watch the soothing motions of your wrist going to work
Slowly he will become more and more interested in what you're doing and he needs to see. Sneakily inching himself closer to you as you work away and stretching his neck as far as he can, catching a glimpse then feeling guilty
Jason wants to respect you so much but it kills him that you’re not showing him. So when you were in the shower he quickly ran to the book and gently ran his fingers over your work, amazed at how good everything was and how you brought the nature/animals to life in the book from around the camp
Flipping a page then he is met with sketches of himself, with the mask and without, his hands, some of his wounds with the bones sticking out... it was beautiful and he couldn’t look away until you walked into the room pushing him away from the book but seeing his expression made you melt, he loved it so much and slowly brought out confidence in you, making you show him your work all the time
A few times he had brought some art supplies home from a group of teens that came along
One day he came home to canvases all over the floor and red paint splattered all over your old t-shirt Jason freaked out thinking it was blood in the dim lighting, he stepped on your canvases with muddy boots and held you up making you yelp... “Baby it’s just paint”... well now he feels foolish and upset for stepping on your art
The next night he still felt bad but you showed him what you had created from “the incident”... Bright colours framed the bootprint and brought out the muddy tones, some of the canvases had pressed flowers along the details of the print and it was so beautiful Jason immediately hung them on the wall  
Just an fyi he wants to always do crafts with you lol so make sure you help him
Tumblr media
MICHAEL MYERS
Now this guy is pretty indifferent to everything but something about your art brings out a new side in him
You can say a lot of things about Michael but you cannot say he isn’t observant, he sees everything and knows everything
Like Jason he notices your many notebooks and various art supplies around the house, but he is far more intrusive than Jason and will rip the notebook from your hands holding your neck if you protest as he flips through it
Watching his face nothing changes, he just scans the pages then throws the notebook down walking away leaving into the night
The next morning notebook, paints, pens, brushes and other supplies litter the kitchen counter... wonder who got those???
Michael loves watching you work on your art, watching your facial expressions, the way the pens run along the paper and how the paint coats the canvases.. oop you just gave him an idea
One night he came home gruesomely cover in blood a little more than extra, and Michael moves above you and the art you are working on, whoops he is dripping blood on the canvas, then smearing it, then moving his knife along it using it as a brush, I guess
You yelled at him at first but watching how he seemed to enjoy the colours mixing together and the way the blood dried was sort of.. cute
You knew Michael had a funny and creative side just by the way he walked into the bedroom one night with a sheet over himself and sunglasses on, and the way he leaves marks on your body in a certain pattern or framing his favourite features of you. Michael’s art was his kill you realized
He really loves your pieces, even though he would never say so and Michael’s favourites were the sketches of himself you did and he would paint blood along them
You weren’t gonna lie it made the portraits more interesting and honestly beautiful, they quickly became your favourites as well
I’m sorry but my horny self just wants to see Michael in an all-black suit at an art gallery admiring the masked portrait of himself covered in blood... sorry but it’s hot lol
Tumblr media
BO SINCLAIR      
So Bo is not really observant so it might take him a while to notice the art supplies around the house but even then he thinks it’s just Vincent’s
You will probably have to do just do the art in front of him before he gets that its your art supplies.. man sucks lol
Bo really enjoys your company when he is in the shop, you just sitting there working away in your notebook and him under the hood of his truck
He doesn’t necessarily push to see what you’re drawing but Bo teases, the harder you hide it the harder he teases... “what ya got in there sex drawings?” “Fuck darlin’ let me be your model”
If you don’t want him to see what you’re doing never leave your notebook behind because the man is a snoop in every sense of the word
Bo 100% supports your art even though he isn’t very interested in it and doesn’t really get it, if it makes you happy he will steal supplies from his twin and if victims have notebooks or pens he will bring them to you immediately  
On a day where you decided to spend the day at the shop, sitting on your chair sketching away while Bo was organizing his tools, he kept catching your glances and smirked “Baby, you need somethin?” he would ask smugly.
“Nope” a simple answer not stroking his ego “gonna grab a beer from downstairs you want one?” Bo nods as you make your way to the mini-fridge. Quickly the man strides over to the notebook, opening the page where you had placed your pencil. He knew it, sketches of himself, it makes his ego skyrocket.
“BO!!” pushing him away and he grabs the book holding it just out of your reach smirking “Momma always said I’d be a good model” “Don’t flatter yourself Sinclair, you’re the only man around for miles that doesn’t wear a mask or look like a trash man” you laughed as him smirk fell... run
He honestly loves your art even though Bo gives you a hard time... His favourite thing is falling asleep to the pencil sounds against the paper when you’re laying in bed together
Tumblr media
VINCENT SINCLAIR
SAAAAAAME... lol
The man notices right away that he begins to lose his an unused notebook and some of his best art pencils
It made you very nervous to show Vincent what you sketched and painted since he was just so good at art in every way. It was unfair
His favorite thing to do with you is make little sculptures from wax or clay, he could tell you were very creative and good at what you made, and he would always be super supportive
Vincent’s praise and support made you more comfortable with doing your art around him and even showing him. The man loves it and loves all of it
Different from his brother, Vinny respects you a lot and is fine with not looking in your notebook until you’re ready to show him. He hates when people see his unfinished work and flip through his notebooks as well
The good thing about dating him is Vincent’s art stuff is now yours
Also he is a very good teacher, somehow though he cannot talk, Vinny never makes you feel bad about your art and if you need help he is more than happy to support
Art date nights!! Getting the idea from your phone, you lit all the candles and brought down all the paint you could along with the large unused canvases you had found. When Vincent strolls downstairs his eyes go wide, seeing you in just your bra and underwear “I’m ready for art class Vin” you giggle
When he finds your paintings or sketches of himself without his mask Vincent’s heart melts, finding someone like you to love him, let alone see his destroyed features as art kills him
Tumblr media
CHROMESKULL
Jesse is a very watchful human, even when he isn’t at home the guy has cameras literally everywhere
When he was gone on a "business trip" you had all the free time in the world, plus you had picked up some new art supplies, so why not work a large piece when Jesse isn't around to distract you... When you had worked on for a few hours you got a text 'How's the painting coming along?' And that's when you realized cameras are everywhere!
If you are a shy person with your art he basically doesn’t allow you to be, he’s a pushy spoiled man but he is also very supportive and it makes you more confident in showing him  
Jesse honestly loves art and has many expensive paintings in his large home, so when he sees your art you better believe he will have Preston frame the art and put it on the walls, with special art gallery lights really making it look perfect
If you need any and I mean any art supplies no matter how expensive Jesse supports it *hands you his gold credit card*
"Oh.. renovations? To the already perfect mansion?" "Yup.. it's your new art studio"
Art, wine and cheese nights... the perfect date
Feeling uninspired? alright time to change the scenery, let’s go to a tropical destination or a wintery cabin. The man wants to spoil you and put your passion at the top of his priority list, plus he just wants a vacation and see you in your swimwear
It doesn't matter if you're shy about your art or confident Jesse will say he is taking you to an event, get you all dolled up and take you to an art gallery event that is just your art... surprise! Dumb rich bastard loves your work and flaunts it to everyone he can

skz for the ask game? :3
eeeeek thank u for asking magpie :D warning that its long and incoherent <3
✦ my first bias: mr bang chan himself , i saw a group photo of them and he just looked so awkward i fell in instant love <3 i think the way i described him was "frat boy who practices beer pong so he doesn't look like a loser at parties" ✦ my current bias(es): this may come as a surprise.......lino ✦ my album and/or era ranking (or favorite of each): OOOOHHH !! i have amazing opinions abt skz discography so buckle up <3 magpie i saw u did a very detailed ranking for ur enha one so .. ill try my best NCJXKCZN. this is not really much of a ranking and more me telling u my opinions on every era..enjoy >3< (for fairness im considering the eras in terms of the 8 members)
levanter was underrated. all the drama in stayville at the time made it their most overshadowed title and its AMAZING lino falsetto lino silk shirts and it was their first time (in my opinion) experimenting with something a little softer title-wise .. and astronaut as the promoted bside was everything its one of my fave skz songs to date .
i have a complicated relationship with in life bc we got carrot lino my most beloved in the entire world..but no gods menu screentime :| ill die mad abt that ..BUT WE GOT PHOBIA which is everything to me. tied for no1 skz song. and carrot lino was in easy and he was so entrancing about it..he was literally a carrot ............. and ex..lino drinking water and blond changbin. literally.....my universe..ANY..like everyone knows skz bsides hit different but in life bsides are just insanity
and everyone knows noeasy is their best album and i think its really when each of the members got to shine; one of the things i associate with skz music the most these days is having what i like to call "lino songs" which are songs where lino is in the song . (my side, voices, boxer, airplane, levanter, mixtape oh, ex, the view, 3rd eye to name a few) his parts suit his voice so so so gorgeously and skz music does that for all the members really well !! noeasy has like half of my fav skz songs and is full of lino songs and she is untouchable. the view <3 star lost <3 mixtape oh <3 surfin <3
ODDINARY. this is changbins album i dont make the rules. as a very avid changbin gender supporter i am also an avid maniac supporter. its a perfect album !! im biased because i saw them for maniac tour and lino sang waiting for us to me. :( . i know stray kids are all all rounders so they couldve done the waiting for us/muddy water split literally anywhere but it really made me so emotional to see linos voice being so central in there :( its so warm and pretty and im tearing up typing this..lonely street is everything to me and also everything to me. [goes insane]
i am you.........my first skz comeback :( curly chan............i still rembmer watching that 1 live perf where he harmonized with himself for the lin e in the chrous..gn .. we got GET COOL WHICH IS THE BEST SONG EVER. and my side and 0325 which are .. perfect..
side effects is skz best title track..and TMT ???????? IS SO GOOD HELLOOOOOOO . i do unfortunately have a bone to pick with skz rereleasing mixtape 1 named as "placebo" because i prefer the original 3racha placebo to the 8 member and theyre so different..chan didnt ask me before doing that tho
miroh is an album for boxer and chronosaurus . i think my soul left my body when i heard chronosaurus for the first itme. its litearlly a perfect song its everything its so good and linos voice is literally linos voice good night !! one opinino i have about the skz2020 ver of chronosaurus is that seungmins line in the chorus is in every chorus and it used to be a little second verse treat as my fav one <3
3rd eye is tied for no1 skz song with phobia. florescence's lino 3rd eye fancam fundamentally changed me actually. i have nothing more to say. 3rd eye........the rerecording is so good too it sounds incredible and linos voice and its so creepy and nanvksjvnsd its perfect
voices. lino bridge. i remember when it was literally every stays favorite song and for good reason because its perfect !! every time i watches the voices dance practice i replay lino bridge like 943043 times. m.i.a..........they had no business making songs like that [cries]
christmas evel. i ltierally lost my mind at chans chubby chanel earmuffs. i think about them every single day. they haunt me..
........thats so long. and i didnt even rank them. :D ✦ how i got into them: one of my bestfriends at the time showed me the get cool music video at lunch !!! i remember minhos pinky sweater like it was yesterday.. and then awkward silence (her bias was jeongin, since he had braces and was cute) ✦ which member would be my best friend: idc if this is wishful thinking but lino and chan. lino.. if theres one thing i will do , it is commit to a bit. and he is full of bits. hes leebit. i adore sooniedoongiedori and ill take filter selfies with him. i have a fishing sweatshirt so im set for the trips !!<3 chan is just bestfriend shaped i dont need to explain this .. hes full of care ✦ something i associate with them (or with a bias/any member): being short <3

Chapters: one. ~ two. ~ three. ~ four. ~ five. ~ six. ~ seven. ~ eight.
Wordcount: 2k
Summary: Being with Miya Atsumu is like chasing a storm - equal parts exhilaration and danger. After all, it’s impossible to tame a storm
Masterlist here 
AO3 link here
Author’s Note: And we’re at the penultimate chapter! Am rly excited to hear what you guys think - so please, drop me an ask, a note, a comment, anything!!! Thank you for following this fic with me <3
Tumblr media
He stays away from her over the next two weeks. He still picks Shino up from childcare - he’s never leaving his little girl again - but takes Osamu’s advice to duck into the kitchen the minute he hears the bell chime to mark her entrance into the shop. 
‘Is everything alright with Atsumu?’ he hears her ask Osamu after a week of radio silence from him. 
He imagines Osamu just shrugs, because his twin later gives him a look of askance that he ignores. 
‘Meet me on Sunday afternoon? Was hoping to have a quick chat and pass something over to you since my arm is out of its sling.Osamu agreed to take Shino for a couple of hours, so don’t worry about her’, he texts her. 
‘Fine’, she texts back. ‘Works for me’. 
Tumblr media
‘Hey’, he greets her as she opens the door, fighting the impulse to scruff his shoes into the ground like a nervous schoolboy on his first date. 
‘Hey yourself’, she responds without heat, slipping on her shoes. ‘Shall we?’ 
He nods, turning on his heel and she follows suit, their footfalls matching in pace, though they angle their bodies to avoid each other’s gaze in the lift. They do not exchange a single word until they reach the car park, and he leads her past all the cars to a dim corner, lit by a single flickering electric bulb.  
‘Atsumu - what’s this?’ she says, staring uncomprehendingly at the motorbike parked in front of her, the exact replica of the bike she sold when she got pregnant with Shino, albeit updated with a shining coat of new paint and the latest modifications, top of the line. 
‘Surprise?’ he tells her, unable to hide a grin when she runs a hand reverently over the seat of the bike. 
‘I can’t accept this, ‘Tsumu. It’s too much’, she demurs but he knows she’s fallen in love when she’s unable to tear her eyes away from the bike.
‘Sure ya can! I registered it under yer name, and paid for the parking fees for the year, and look! It even comes with a helmet!’, he assures her, crossing his fingers behind his back. ‘Ya can ride it whenever ya have time to yerself - I’ll make sure I or ‘Samu will take Shino-chan for a couple hours every weekend so ya can go break some speed limits on the bike!’ 
‘This isn’t a bribe, right? Or some attempt to trick me into agreeing into something I don’t want to do?’ she asks him suspiciously. 
‘No - no tricks, I swear on my life. Look - I’ve signed the divorce papers, they’re in my bag. I just wanted to give ya the bike as a partin' gift’, he says, keeping his voice deliberately light. 
She stares at him, searching his face for any sign of duplicity, but he holds her gaze until she turns away, satisfied. 
‘You never do anything by halves, do you ‘Tsumu? But thank you anyway’, she laughs breathily and his heart lurches to a start when he sees her slowly start to glow whilst fussing over the bike, exclaiming to herself as she admires the paint job and the extra compartments he’d gotten the mechanic to install. 
Watching her brings back memories of their adventures together before Shino came along. She’d pick him up for a ride to the outskirts of Osaka on their rare days off, in search for a spot to lay their picnic mat down and shoot the breeze. They’d never found that perfect picnic spot, but that just meant that there were more places to explore, more roads to traverse, more adventures for them to go on. That’d all stopped once Shino came along, and he wonders if they wouldn’t be in such a state if he’d put in more effort to carve out more time for them.   
And even before that - there was the time she’d surprised him by turning up in Kobe for one of his matches, sweeping him away from his confused teammates right after the match to celebrate over egg mayo sandwiches at 7-11. He suspects that was the day he’d fallen in love with her, half realising that she was probably the only person crazy enough to burn hours on the road on the back her rusty old bike right after an exam, just to stay up all night sitting cross-legged in a dim combini with mayo in her hair, listening to him ramble about his volleyball match. 
Wow. 'Samu's right. Even the reason he fell in love with her was fucking selfish. 
‘Hey ‘Tsumu’, he hears her say after a while and he looks up. ‘Wanna go for a ride?’ she asks brightly, twirling the keys around her finger. 
‘Huh?’ he responds, genuinely perplexed. 
‘A ride, you idiot. Don’t you want to find out how the bike feels on the road, especially since you’re the one who paid for it?’ 
‘Sure’, he says, a little lost - but then again she’s always found ways to keep him on his toes. ‘But there’s only one helmet’. 
‘I still have my old one upstairs. Give me a second so I can get it!’ she rushes off, a spring in her step he’s sorely missed seeing and despite the ache in his heart, he smiles. 
Tumblr media
His smile vanishes the moment she kicks the bike full throttle and hurtles through weekend Osaka traffic at breakneck speed, making such sharp turns he almost falls off the bike if he weren’t already clutching her waist for dear life. ‘Oi! Look out!’ he yelps, as she weaves her way through narrow gaps between cars, seemingly deaf to the horns of outraged drivers behind her - and fuck he wants to puke but can’t because there’s no way that doesn’t end badly for him. 
‘Slow down, you fuckin' maniac’, he manages to shout when his stomach gives itself up for dead, but the wind swallows his words and she only whoops in response. The neon city lights blur into a mess of colours and he runs through his repertoire of curse words. He swears she’s evil - it’s not enough that she’s killed him once by divorcing him, her insane riding is going to make sure he’s doubly dead.
They burst onto the highway in a squeal of tires, the city skyline fading into a sea of lights, and they’re both so focused on the road ahead of them, well – she is, at least, he’s trying his level best to stay on his seat - that neither of them notice the dark clouds gathering above until the first splatter of raindrops on the road. 
The sky is threatening enough to make her swerve off the highway into a quiet neighbourhood, screeching to a halt at the nearest park with an empty shelter large enough to fit both of them. They jump off the bike, helmets dangling over their arm, and she catches hold of his hand as they splash their way through muddy puddles in a bid to escape the incoming storm. 
‘That was amazing!’ she laughs when they reach shelter, twirling on the tips of her feet, cheeks flushed pink with excitement, looking so happy and bright and alive -  like a bird spreading its wings to fly high in the sky, the way she used to be before their marriage broke her wings and shackled her to the ground. 
If only he hadn’t been blinded by the false allure of his dreams to appreciate what was right in front of him - a woman bold enough to whisk him away from the clutches of deranged fans on the back of a motorbike, fierce enough for Osamu to assign her to deal with his bullshit - and most of all, crazy enough to marry and have a child with him. And he knows she isn’t his, not anymore, but he's a greedy, selfish man, and he wants her one last time, so he throws his jacket over her shoulders as a pretext for drawing her close to him, slanting his mouth gently over hers. 
She stills for a second, and he’s about to pull away when she melts into him, tilting her chin up to grant him greater access to her lips. An unexpected heat coils in his stomach when she tangles her fingers in his hair, scraping her nails against his scalp, a thrill running down his spine as he loses himself in her familiar softness and warmth and groans.
She gasps, jerking away from him, tracing her bruised lips with her fingers, looking up at him with wide eyes.
‘Tsumu’, she begins to say, but he cuts her off, frantic with worry that he’s scared her off before he’s had the chance to say his piece. 
‘I’m sorry - I know I shouldn’t have but I just...can I just say what I meant to say to ya before this?’ he asks, banking on the fact that she hasn’t slapped him yet, and to his relief, she nods. 
‘I’ve thought about what ya said, and yer right -  I’ve taken so much from ya I don’t deserve to ask ya for anything else, not when I should be the one making it up to ya for the rest of my life,’ he says, his heart cracking beneath his ribs (so it’s true, a heart can actually break) – because he knows now she’s lost to him, has been the second he'd forsaken his vows and stormed out of her life, but he gulps a breath to calm his pulse, forcing himself to continue on. 
‘All I want is for ya to be happy and free - and if signing these papers is the price I have to pay, I’ll do it for ya’. Then he draws the brown envelope from his bag, holding it out to her with shaking hands. 
She makes no move to take it from him. 
‘Do you even love me, ‘Tsumu?’ she asks, her voice feather light, a wisp in the wind. ‘Be honest with me, you don’t have to lie’.
There’s a searing pain in his chest and he closes his eyes, losing himself to the undercurrent of regret pulsing in his mind. 
‘I do’, he manages to choke out, peeling aside the rotting layers of vanity and greed and selfishness and pride to flay his chest open to present his heart to her, in all its bleeding, broken glory. 
‘Yer everythin’ I could’ve ever asked for, and it’s killin’ me to watch you walk away - but I deserve it cos I’m a fuckin’ idiot for not realisin’ that sooner, and ya have no idea how fuckin’ sorry I am for hurting ya so badly and making you think that I don’t love ya - because I do, gods, I do, I love ya so goddamned much.’
‘Does our marriage mean that much to you?’ she stares at him, her eyes clouded with an emotion he can’t make out. 
‘Yes’, he says simply, his response both a confession and a prayer. He makes no move to touch her, fearful that any misstep might tip them both over the edge, the storm of emotions swirling within him already threatening to swallow him whole. 
‘Then ask me again, ‘Tsumu’ she whispers, her fists clenched, trembling by her side.    
He blinks at her, but his confusion morphs into elated disbelief when she takes the brown envelope from him and rips it cleanly in half. 
Oh. 
‘Ask me again, ‘Tsumu’, she repeats, the clouds in her eyes clearing into pools of light. He wonders if it mirrors the rush of warmth and love and most of all - hope, overflowing in his heart. 
‘Wanna try jumping off a cliff again?’ he asks, voice shaking, echoing the request he made of her years ago.
She steps forward into his waiting arms, her smile like golden sunlight spilling through grey rain.  
‘Only if you promise to jump with me’, she says softly against his chest. 
He catches her forgiveness desperately in his hands, and seals his promise with his lips.

Of Monsters and Men
Chapter 8- Bottled Appetites
Summary: A peaceful day can turn sour so fast, but alas, it still never fails to bring you adventure. Whether you’re ready for it or not.
Warnings: Jaskier being stubit, blood, Geralt being a hottie, a bit of smut
Masterlist
Tumblr media
Today couldn't be more beautiful, the sun is shining her grand radiance and the forest is full of life as you listen to the singing of birds from your comfortable spot on a large tree branch that's hanging over top of Geralt. He's currently focused intently on fishing out a djinn to hopefully cure his sleep apnea that's been really bothering him as of late. Well, that's at least the reasoning he's claimed.
You've tried to help him with herbs, potions, and more sensual physical activities. But nothing has appeared to work, so here he is, grumpier then usual as he throws a fishing net into the river in hopes that he'll snag himself a djinn in a bottle.
Laying your back against the long branch, one of your legs swings casually back and forth as you listen to your surroundings. Your stomach growls from lack of any sufficient food in the last two days when your ears suddenly hear the tell tale singing of a certain bard as he strolls through the woodland in search of his long time friends, "Cause you all know. That this bard. Loved ladies from Nilfgaard. 'Cause Nilfgaard can kiss my..." Sings the bard as he wanders down the trail until his eyes land on your Witcher, "Geralt! Hello. What's it been months? Years? What is time, anyway? I heard you and Y/N...wherever she is....were in town.' His voice is just as cheerful and upbeat as you'd remembered, "Are you following me, you scamp? I mean I'm flattered and everything, but I think that feisty lady of yours may start to get jealous." Rambles Jaskier as he takes out his flask.
He takes a small sip before offering it to Geralt, who ignores him, Jaskier shakes this off and keeps to his questioning when suddenly you drop down from seemingly out of nowhere. Doing a fantastic job at scaring the shit out of Jaskier in your abrupt arrival, he yelps before stumbling back a few feet. "Dear gods Y/N have you been just hanging around in the treetops like some type of...of..bat?" He stammers breathlessly, a hand over his thudding heart.
Smirking at him you throw him a quick wink, "Only for you my humble bard." He stands up straight as a light blush dusts his cheeks as you turn to follow Geralt down the side of the river path, while he searches for a better spot to catch this djinn, Jaskier trailing behind you both.
"Geralt, you're fantastic at a great many things, but clearly, fishing is not one of them. Have you caught anything today? What are you fishing for, exactly?" Intrudes Jaskier as Geralt fiddles with his netting while you lean against a tree, "Is it cod? Carp?" He looks to you for a second before his attentions back on Geralt, "Pike? Bream? I'm just....I'm just listing off fish that I know. Zander? Is that a fish?" Wonders the bard as he raises a brow at you.
You simply shrug, "He's not fishing, can't sleep." Jaskier nods, not sure what to do with that information.
"Right. Good. Well, that...makes sense. In so much that it sort of...doesn't." Frowns Jaskier as he suddenly looks a bit more worried, "What's going on Geralt, talk to me."
Geralt stops before letting out a tired sigh as he looks to Jaskier, "A djinn." Is all he admits before he's back to grappling with his net.
You watch as Jaskier's face scrunches up in deep confusion, "A what?"
"I'm looking for a djinn." Grumbles Geralt as the bards face looks even more puzzled then before.
Then all at once it seems that he's finally connected the dots, a smirk breaking upon his face as he sets his hands onto either hip, "For a dj....for a djinn? A dj...like a genie?" Laughs Jaskier as he wiggles his fingers in a playful manner, "The floaty fellas with the....the bad tempers and the banned magics, that kind of genie?"
Geralt stand up once again, a hard expression across his brow while Jaskier fails at concealing his laughter, "Yes. It'll grant me wishes. It's in this river somewhere. And I can't FUCKING SLEEP!" Snaps Geralt, golden eyes glowing even brighter as his anger boils over.
Geralt glances to you for a brief moment before turning and walking further down the river path, the bard follows suite as you trail behind them, amused at Jaskier's continuous rambling about his latest adventures and the possible reason why Geralt is so sleep deprived.
"Have you ever considered why you may be feeling this way hm, let's say...oh I don't know, we find the root of the problem. I mean, maybe, just maybe this whole sleeplessness-ness has got something to do with what the druid Mousesack said to you guys in Cintra? You know, the Law of Surprise? Destiny? Being unable to escape the child that belongs to you, et cetera, et cetera?" Inquires Jaskier as you watch Geralt prepare to throw in the net.
"No! Y/N was there too and she's fine....this is something else." Grumbles your Witcher as he throws his net into the waters below.
Jaskier looks from you to Geralt, hands on his hips the whole time, "Yeah, you're probably right. But what if you're not? You know, the Countess de Stael once said to me...that destiny is just the embodiment of the soul's desire to grow." Explains Jaskier he walks past you to sit down on a log.
A small laugh escapes from your lips as you turn to the bard, "Did you sing to her before she left?" You honestly couldn't help yourself, pushing Jaskier's buttons is just a solid talent of yours.
He looks out at the water, "I did, actually, and she.." His head quickly turns to you once he realizes what that comment suggested, "Why, what are you implying?" Wonders Jaskier as he tilts his head to you, a smirk breaks out upon your face as you then bite your lip to keep silent. He gets up from the log, an abashed expression crossing his features, "Oh, we are so having this conversation. Come on, Y/N. Geralt. Tell me. Be honest. How's my singing?"
You cross your arms over your chest while casually looking out at the river and pretend that he hasn't even said anything, although you're certain Geralt on the other hand will add his two cents. He tosses his net out into the water once again before turning to Jaskier, "It's like ordering a pie and finding it has no filling." Deadpans Geralt as you burst with laughter, Jaskier looking rather taken aback as his eyes go wide in surprise.
"You need a nap! I mean are you trying to hurt my feelings, Geralt? It's...it's down-downright indecorous of you, if I'm completely honest, and.." He quickly loses interest once Geralt unveils a bottle from his net, "Wow. Wow. What is...what is that?" Questions Jaskier as Geralt holds the djinn bottle in his muddy hands, you hover over his shoulder as you stare at the thing in amazement. It doesn't look like much but the wizards seal on the bottles cork is truly telling, too bad it doesn't have a three course meal inside.
"It's a wizards seal. The djinn." Geralt confirms softly as he studies the enchanted bottle until Jaskier suddenly grabs onto the bottles other handle.
"Do you mind if I...."
"Jaskier." Snaps Geralt as you stand back to watch, deciding it more entertaining if you don't intervene.
The bard points an accusing finger in his direction, "Take it back about my filling-less pie. Take it back, you get your djinny-djinn-djinn."
Rolling your crimson eyes you set a hand on your hip, "Let go Jask."
He turns to you with a fake sneer before snapping his attention back to your stoic Witcher, "No! No, you let go, you horse's arse!" Suddenly the bottle slips from Geralt's hand as he looks down at the cork in his fist, a confused expression on his handsome features as nothing appears to happen around either of them.
Jaskier studies the bottle in his hand, looking rather disappointed, "That's a bit of an anticlimax." He mutters dismally at the boring turn of events, although you can't help but notice as a soft supernatural whispering begins to make itself known to your hypersensitive ears, then right on cue does the wind begin to pick up, the woods feeling a bit darker as the clouds go grey up above, "Or is it?" He says excitedly as he wiggles his eyebrows at you.
Crossing your arms over your chest, your nerves prick at the odd change in the atmosphere, "Shit." You mumble while Jaskier walks past Geralt, he gives you a sour look as you grimace in knowing annoyance.
Standing on the edge of the riverbank, Jaskier points to the sky, "Djinn, I have freed thee, and as of this day, I am thy lord. Firstly, may Valdo Marx the troubadour of Cidaris, be struck down with apoplexy and die. Secondly, the Countess de Stael must welcome me back with glee, open arms and very little clothing. Thirdly..." Geralt quickly pulls him back in an attempt to shut him up before something terrible happens to him.
"Jaskier! Stop. There are only three wishes." Warns Geralt as you stand next to him, the both of you staring the bard down like two disappointed parents.
"You're a fucking idiot, Jask." You add bluntly as he simply rolls his blue eyes, unbothered by this djinn considering his two friends are a Witcher and dhampire.
"Only three wishes!" Grumbles Geralt as Jaskier observes his agitated demeanor.
"Oh, come on, you got Y/N, she's quite literally the best thing that's ever happened to you...how was I to know you wanted three wishes all to yourself?" Shouts the bard over the loud enchanted winds that are rapidly starting to build, ones that are rocking the tree branches and leaves every which way, as well as your hair.
"I just want some damn peace!" Bellows Geralt in frustration.
"Well, here's your peace!" Snaps Jaskier before idiotically smashing the bottle upon the ground in a blind moment of irritation.
Geralt quickly squats down to pick up the broken shards as you reach down to do the same, while picking them up he accidentally cuts himself on a sharp edge. You can instantly smell the blood, and though you haven't given into darker temptations in a long while. You're rather hungry from lack of coin to pay for any such meals that would gladly satisfy you, and right now it feels too much.
Snapping away from Geralt, you stand to your full height as you finally notice how sickly peculiar Jaskier is starting to appear, "Uh Y/N.." Gasps the bard breathlessly as he holds a hand to his throat, "Y/N...it's the djinn!" Stammers Jaskier as he points towards the river, you snap your attention to find a wispy black and purple mass racing for the three of you over the water.
Your eyes go wide in startled bewilderment, "Geralt!" You shout just as he stands and uses his magic to propel the creature back where it decides to take off into the sky.
Your Witcher stares up at the horizon as you catch the enthralling scent of blood once more, god you should really have eaten some berries or at least stolen something earlier to avoid this terrible primal hunger. You look over to Jaskier who's not looking too hot, a tiny trail of blood seeps out of the side of his mouth, his neck forming an unnatural lump as he wheezes in pain.
Geralt snaps his golden eyes down to the panicking bard, "Jaskier." He speaks before Jask leans over, a ruby red spurt of blood bursting from out of his mouth as he tries to gasp for breath, "Y/N?" Pleads Geralt in hopes that you can help him somehow. Though you're certain that if you would get any closer, you may break and give into your deeper vampiric desires that you've held at bay for so long. The part of you that has forever kept yourself from ever truly feeling human.
Shaking your head you flicker your eyes over to him, "I...I can't....I'm too starved....I'm sorry." You breath out, taking a cautious step back, the scent of Jaskier's warm blood on the breeze is enough to make your mouth water.
He purses his lips together, knowing that you can't do much for the time being, "Fuck." Grumbles Geralt as he quickly picks up Jaskier before booking it down the trail for Roach.
——
You follow in the form of a pack of bats close behind your boys as Geralt leads Roach to a small camp in the woods. You watch as he yells in question for a doctor, Jaskier slumped to the side as he leans into Geralt's broad back. Quickly a soldier confirms that an elven healer is inside, you land on a large firm tree branch, turning back into your original form as you watch them scurry into the grand white tent.
You focus your hearing and learn that if Jaskier's wounds are not treated by proper magic remedies, then he will certainly die. A pang of worry strikes you at the thought of your bard gone, and you do feel quite terrible knowing that he's in so much pain. But to your great or at least somewhat relief does the elf give Jaskier a pain relieving liquid concoction, thus explaining that a malicious and cunning mage is imprisoned in the mayor's house in the next town over who could heal the bards wounds.
A prominent feeling of uneasiness and caution surges throughout you at the thought of meeting another mage after months of evading any at all. Soon enough they quickly exit the tent and find themselves upon Roach's back before they take off in the direction of the closest town. With a heavy sigh you jump from the tree, shifting into a pack of whimsical black bats as you fly after Geralt throughout the tree tops and evening sky.
You're flight feels short lived as a couple miles later does Geralt finally find the large brick house of the mayor, its a rather beautiful place positioned on the edge of a huge lake with woods comfortably surrounding it. Roach gallops onto the gravel road when suddenly a tough half bald bearded man walks up to them. He gives them a hard time before Geralt abruptly knocks him out with a sack of coins, much to your amusement.
He takes Roach to the stables as you fly downward towards the ground, just as Geralt walks out of the barn with Jaskier dangling over his shoulder, you hastily shift back into your more presentable self. He gives you a nod of acknowledgment before a stern and determined look appears onto his hard features as he practically strides towards the closest wooden door. You follow behind as you clench your fists together in an attempt at distracting yourself from your ever growing hunger, the blood seeping out of Jaskier's mouth smells sweet as fresh berries as it wafts into your nostrils.
He wheezes in pain with every step that Geralt takes down the wine filled hallway which is enough to keep yourself from doing anything you'll regret later. He walks through a doorway before gently setting Jaskier onto the kitchen table, you follow in after him, your crimson eyes going wide as they find a naked man holding a brown shiny jug. He stares in awe at the three of you just as he drops his jug onto the stone floor below.
What the fuck?
A large drunken half smile makes its way onto his face, "Velcome...to my vome." Cheerfully announces the grey haired naked man, his arms spread wide in greeting, other parts of him also hanging out to your great disgust.
"You're the Mayor of Rinde?" Wonders Geralt as he looks to Jaskier.
Looking anywhere but the man, you throw a hand up before resting it onto your hip, "Our day has already been weird enough, why not meet a naked man in his home to top it all off, huh?" You jest with a nervous laugh, almost certain that this fool has been enchanted. He has to be, right?
The bard makes more wheezing sounds as Geralt's brow furrows in worry, "Uh, it there a mage that lives here?" The naked man turns to something sitting near Jaskier as his face shifts to that of realization.
"Ah. De apple jvuce. She vants some. And she alvays gets...vhat she vants." Whispers the man with a telling nod, oh yes he is without a doubt under some type of spell.
Geralt turns a confused eye to you, "I don't understand. Does he want me to get him the apple juice?" You turn your eyes back to the man as he goes to sit down in a chair, you look back to Geralt with a shrug, "No idea? Let's just find this fucking mage." You grumble as Jaskier tries to nod.
Your Witcher grabs the apples juice and the scruff of the bards baby blue jacket as he goes to walk into the nearest doorway. You turn back to the naked potbellied man only to be greeted with his loud snores, shaking your head you amble after your boys. As you follow closely behind Geralt you look down to notice as a greenish mist cascades out from under the closed door. He quickly pulls it open as more billows out and into the hallway, there's nothing on the other side but an ascending staircase, to the left another closed doorway that seems to have even more of the mist coming from it.
It's strange, you can hear muffled moaning on the other side and the rapid beating of many loud heartbeats. Your questions are quickly answered as the two of them walk into the next open doorway only to stumble upon a massive orgy. You keep behind the wall as you crinkle your nose in disgust at the strong scent of sex, sweat, and perfume in the air, a less than pleased expression crossing your features at the sickening toxins.
One that most likely matches Geralt's if you didn't know any better. You listen closely as he walks through the moaning crowd before he plops Jaskier next to someone, you feel almost sick from lack of food and the smell of this place is just about driving you mad. But you can't face the mage, something just doesn't feel right.
You listen as he speaks to her, your heart falling into your throat as she replies back, that voice, you haven't heard that voice in decades. But how? How could she be here of all places to be? Shaking your thoughts from your mind you eves drop in on their conversation until she begins to give him a hard time about payment, sounding rather too sensual for your liking.
"It's spreading, fix it. And I'll pay you. Whatever the price." Mutters Geralt to the familiar mage as he looks up at her from his spot near the small stairway that she's standing on.
"You'll have to do better then juice." Answers the mage slyly as she contemplates this intriguing new proposition.
"Yennefer." She stops in her tracks, her body tense as realization crosses her masked face, "Don't be difficult." You add as Geralt steps to the side, a confused expression on his face as he looks from you to Yennefer and back to you again.
She takes a step down, a small smirk adoring her ruby red lips as she looks you over, "Now this...is a surprise, how long's it been? I honestly wasn't certain that our paths would ever cross again, I was almost hoping they wouldn't....but alas. Here you are....it's good to see you Y/N." She smiles, studying your bloodshot eyes due to your increase in hunger, she smiles, "You look, famished." Concludes the mage with a tilt of her head.
You slightly shrug, "What a kind way to say I look like I'm halfway into hell....now, save him before he bleeds anymore."
She smiles, looking down at the djinn's bottle cap, "As you command, princess Y/N." Quips Yennefer with a smirk as she looks around the room, "Ragamuffin!" And just like that the mass orgy stops, the participating villagers snapping back to reality in the process. They quickly scramble to cover themselves as Yennefer looks to the two of you, nodding for you three to follow her to where she can heal Jaskier.
——
After clearing out half the pantry and about two small bottles of wine, you're finally satiated and no more half starved. You casually sit on the kitchen table as Geralt stares at the floor in worry for the bard and in deep questioning thought about how the hell you know Yennefer. You could practically cut the tension with a knife, but then much to your relief she comes walking down the steps.
Calmly announcing that Jaskier is in a deep healing sleep, and that you both urgently need a bath, something you wholeheartedly agree on. She hands the both of you some clean clothes as she directs you into the direction of the bathhouse, going elsewhere to give you both some privacy.
You walk into the steamy warm room as Geralt shuts the door, locking it as you start to unlace your top, "Y/N how do you know..."
"Ask me when I'm in the bath, then I'll indulge you for some of my hidden past....dealings." You interrupt with the flash of a smile before throwing off your top and bra. You face away from him as you kick off your boots, quickly shimmying out of your dark pants and undergarments as you stand stark naked by the heated pool.
Turning a quick glance behind you, your eyes catch Geralt's as his golden irises trail down your body, he looks away as an embarrassed grin makes its way onto his handsome face. You smile to yourself, turning to lower your tired vessel into the steaming waters. Sighing in pleasure at how the bath feels blessedly nice after many moons of going without a proper clean.
You close your eyes as your sit peacefully by the waters edge, a smirk playing at your lips as Geralt's muscular body gets in after you. You listen intently as he lets himself enjoy the warmth before some water swishes and he's pressed firmly against your side. An arm draped over your shoulder as his other one leans against the cool stony edge, you can just tell that he's taking you all in even as his mind swirls with questions.
"Y/N? What did you get into before you met me....or I guess what type of trouble? Although I do happen to recall your hatred for wizards and mages alike." Mutters your Witcher as he looks down at your relaxed form, your body but a nude distortion under the clear waters of the pool.
Humming in acknowledgment, you open a scarlet eye to look up at him as you give him a small smile, you can tell that if it wasn't for how curious he is at the moment, he'd without a doubt be turning you into a moaning mess by the waters edge within minutes, "I know Yennefer because...I....well I was a type of courier in Aretuza for many years." His dark brows furrow in thought, not sure what you're getting at so you continue, "The mage academy, I traveled there because I searched for the aid of the mages, you see, I had found a farm girl who was bitten by a werewolf and survived. Her father said he would pay me if I delivered her into their care, double if they cured her."
His hand trails tiny patterns against your arm, "And what did you do?"
"I was able to save her life, we had a week before the next full moon and a mage there had the needed remedy to reverse the lycanthropy. After that, I stayed with her there as she recovered from the whole ordeal...considering the process of taking away ones curse is a painful one." You explain as he laces a hand with your own, invested in your story with every new word coming from your lips, "In my time, I investigated the grounds...I was only two-hundred something then...I wanted to see everything. So I did, in doing so, and yes I'm aware this is going to sound quite unlike myself...but, I made a friend."
He hums, squeezing your arm gently in reply, "Her name was Tissaia de Vries, though that hardly matters now it's been so long, anyways....she appeared to like me well enough, I needed a place to cover myself from the rain, and coin to keep me alive and she knew what I was useful for. I basically became a raven, I would take precious letters, scrolls, or artifacts from Aretuza to wherever needed and vise versa. It was safer that way, no one would dare fuck with a dhampir of all travelers, and the ones who did promptly regretted it...and I got to live in the academy for free. It was perfect."
"When did you meet Yennefer?"
"Sometime after a good many years as a courier slash traveling body guard for high end royals who payed well, Tissaia had just brought her to Aretuza for the first time and while walking near her room I could smell the blood pouring out of her slashed wrists, the fool was trying to kill herself." He glances down at you, more intrigued then ever.
(Cue flashback)
"Check on piglet would you Y/N, I'll be gathering the girls for their first lesson shortly in the greenhouse. Make sure she's up." Says Tissaia as she writes something down on a piece of parchment with her quill.
Setting down some type of golden box onto one of her many counters you turn to her, "The little bird seems hardly mage material if I'm being honest....she's afraid, nervous, and ridiculously troubled...not to mention that hunched back of hers, poor things truly had it rough, now things only feel worse to her. You really know how to pick'em don't you?" You muse with a smirk as she continues to write, "Doesn't matter, everyone starts somewhere. I'll go find her, doubt she's decided to venture very far." You add before walking out the doorway and into the stony halls of the enchanted academy.
You pass by a couple mages here and there as you find your way to the novice's rooms in the lower section of the giant castle, you suddenly stop as you've successfully made it to her door. Not caring enough to knock, you swing it open as you find the sad hunchbacked girl, who's sniffling pathetically in her creaky bed, "Greetings little bird, how was your sleep?" Your voice is lively as you smile down in her direction while more dismal sniffles sound, a small half-frown graces your features as you cross your arms over your chest, "Can't say very well considering you've lost a good amount of blood, which I might add is not ideal for your first day of lessons or in general if we're being honest. You're seriously lucky I wasn't starving when I found you."
She sighs, "I don't want to do any lessons. Just leave me. You should have just let me die...at least I still had control over that." She whispers sadly, her back is still turned to you as you take another step closer.
Lightly chuckling, she turns to you, a harsh glare crossing her puffy features as you scoff, "That's hilarious. You really think that you had control? You didn't have shit little bird....you didn't have control, you were losing it." Her crooked face morphs into a frustrated glare as she thinks over your words, you simply shrug, "Now, you've survived and are very much alive whether you like it or not, it's close to the hour for your first lessons as a real mage in training, important shit for your kind. So get up little bird, it's time to fly."
She sniffles once more before giving you a downcast expression, "I can't."
Touching her shoulder in as comforting of a manner as you can muster you smile kindly down at her, "Listen, you can either let the world fuck you like a cheap whore, or you can become a dragon who does whatever the hell they please. Which is it my crooked friend? Who are you going to become?"
Slowly sitting up onto the edge of her bed, she rubs her nose, the tiniest bit of confidence flashing through her purple eyes, "A dragon." She whispers softly, a small spark of life coursing through her once again.
(End flashback)
"I had no idea, this whole time." Whispers Geralt.
You gently nudge his bare shoulder, "Yeah well you never exactly asked, and I didn't feel it important because it isn't or I guess wasn't....that is, until we happened to meet her this evening. Weirder circumstances have be felled us."
"That is true, its just, you were actual friends with mages." Says Geralt like its the most surprising thing in the world, "Now I understand how you knew Mousesack. I had always wondered about that."
"Hmm. Right, well you see and meet a lot of different people when you can't age. He's gotten greyer since the last time, Yennefer however, she still looks the same."
Geralt squeezes your hand, "And you, look even more radiant."
He looks down at you once more, the flash of something new and intriguing shinning bright in his golden eyes as they trail up and down your body. You smirk, pulling his arm from you as you position yourself in front of him, reaching your arms out to push his thighs apart. He eyes you up the whole time, hardness beginning to grow underneath the waters as you touch his shoulders, lining yourself up against him, ready to claim him completely, by just inches.
You softly kiss him, "Fuck me so that damn witch knows exactly who you belong to." His hands trail up to your sides as he pushes you down on his erect member, a low hum escaping your lips at the contact, his fullness pleasantly stretching your walls from within the steamy waters.
Geralt kisses you once more, another upon your neck as he smiles, "Such a compelling offer..." His words evade him as a moan leaves from his parted lips as you begin to ride him, the pools water swishing as you bounce. The next twenty minutes are spent fucking each other until you're one-hundred percent positive that Yennefer could hear every scream and thrust.
Just as you'd intended.
——
You stand at the foot of Jaskier's extravagant bed as Yennefer watches from the doorframe, Geralt near his side as the bard sleeps peacefully away his troubles and malevolent enchantment. Geralt looks on at him, a distraught expression crossing over his features as Yennefer asks if he doubts her capabilities. He grumbles a truthful no, as his only cause of worry is that if Jaskier never wakes up he'll feel terrible for the unkind words that were said to him before all this mess happened.
She smiles when he grumbles about her actual intentions, she simply walks past you over to her table of spices and herbs, but before she can get to it Geralt makes note of how the sign from the djinn's seal is marked upon the floor with candle wax. Her face falters as she realizes that she's been found out, you had figured something was up the moment you stepped into the room and saw it near the end of the large bed.
Leaning yourself against one of the bed posts, you listen as Geralt declares that he's going to take Jaskier now to prevent Yennefer from summoning the djinn, she smartly explains that if he does, then the spell won't take. So you're all essentially stuck until Jaskier is healed, whenever that may be. She turns to open a tiny bottle of oil on her stand, nonchalantly rubbing it into the skin of her wrist as she magically sets the summoning circle candles on fire, an enchanted burst of wind sending the drapes of the bed flying and flapping into the air, your hair as well.
This doesn't sit right with your Witcher at all, especially when she asks how many wishes he has made, Geralt doesn't give her a direct answer until he lets slip that Jask has only used two wishes. Her face perks up at this news, she gives you a mischievous wink before walking over to Geralt, who looks like something strange is happening to him.
You can smell the scent of lilac and gooseberries wafting throughout the room as she walks closer to him, "Tough to get in your head. You have a strong will, but you can't contend with me." You suddenly feel rather sleepy as Geralt looks down at her in anger, instead of helping him, you sit down on the bed and try your best to listen, "Sorry I couldn't be more direct, I knew you two would fight it. And I do love a good old-fashioned trap." She muses as your eyelids begins to grow heavy, a yawn leaving your mouth as you rest a hand against the soft inviting mattress.
So soft, so tired, how'd you get so sleepy?
Against everything in you that's screaming for you to stay awake to stop Yennefer, you feel utterly relaxed, so much so that instead of helping Geralt to stay conscious. You lay yourself on the giant bed, you blearily stare up at the dark wooden ceiling in false content, everything feels so warm and lovely. The room swirls and shifts as you tiredly close your crimson eyes, the sweet enchanting scent of lilac lulling you into a deep and blissful slumber.
Breathing in sharply, you stretch in the soft bed as your eyes finally open to the morning light pouring out from the two giant glass windows on either side of the bed. You're laying on your left side so as you focus better, you're surprised to find Jaskier laying on his back next to you. This is definitely not Geralt, so how did you get here?
Oh right, Yennefer.
Quickly sitting yourself up you look to the end of the bed where Yennefer is sitting, topless as she rubs something onto her bare abdomen. Your brows furrow as you stare at her back, "What the fuck are you doing?" You question, no heat really in your words, you're honestly more confused then anything at the moment.
Without looking at you she starts, "I need the djinn Y/N, this is how I intend to take it."
Sliding off of the side of the bed, you walk around so that you can lean against the wooden beam to see what she's getting at, "That's rather vague Yenn, but if I was to make an educated guess from my clever sleuthing, or just general understanding of how that clapping monkey of a brain works. I'd say you're trying to summon the fucker so your last wish may be for a child in your womb. Nice tattoo by the way, very original." You nod to the dark colored insignia on her lower abdomen in the shape of the female reproductive system, who would have guessed she was such as artist.
She glances at you for a second, anger slowly building in her chest, "How very clever indeed Y/N, even in old age does your mind stay as sharp as a tack." Her tone is bluntly sarcastic, but you stay unaltered by her jest.
You tilt your head at her, "Djinn's are finicky creatures, I wouldn't try and do exactly what I think you're going to do."
"And what is that?" She snaps, her eyes focused ahead.
Rolling your eyes you let out an irritated huff of air, "Become the djinn's physical vessel, its suicide...and you know it. Even the most powerful of mages cannot harness the true strength and imperium of the djinn, what would compel you to attempt this? What will having a child gain you, in this world of all places?"
She doesn't have time to answer as Jaskier suddenly wakes up with a start, he pushes himself up into a sitting position as he squints from the bright light of the room, "Oh, uh...where am I?" His eyes quickly land on the bare back of Yennefer since he can't see you from behind the thick pulled back curtain, "Whew! Uh...Right. Good. Good. Uh...Not to be untoward or anything...but, did we...you know, do the uh..." She slowly covers her bare torso and chest with her thin golden white top as she turns around to face him and crawl upon the bed, "Ooh, Go...Oh, no! No! Definitely did not butter that biscuit." Rushes Jaskier as he scrambles to get off, you watch as he shuffles past you, his eyes going wide in puzzlement, "Oh hello there Y/N, nice morning huh....oh shit, uh...look lady I'm so sorry, but I've just remembered I left my...cat, on the, stove."
He walks backwards as Yennefer continues her stalk towards him, "I...I uh, we really must going, isn't that right Y/N!" He exclaims as he quickly bends down to put on his shoes. You're not entirely sure how to handle this situation if you're being totally honest, you're not exactly one to stop people from living their dreams, especially if it's Yennefer doing something stupid and you also rather enjoy watching Jaskier piss himself.
Her eyes darken, "Express your deepest desires and you can be on your way." She asserts as her hand picks up a knife from her drawer.
"Well, my deepest desires are currently satisfied, thank you so much." Sputters Jaskier as Yennefer uses her power to slam him against the nearby wall.
"Is this really necessary?" You remark as she focuses on the bard.
"Yes." Is all that comes forth from her lips as she goes to threaten Jaskier, "How's your throat?"
"Uh.." Jaskier gives you a nervous glance before snapping back to the approaching mage.
Smiling wickedly she takes another step closer, "Perhaps you should try some scales."
Jaskier flinches back as the mage grabs a hold of him, "Uh...Toss a coin to your Witcher. O, valley of...penis. Oh, God." He stammers as Yenn grabs his junk in one hand and presses a knife against his throat in the other.
"If you want to keep all you have...make a damn wish." She threatens with malice, Jaskier breathing heavily in fear, he doesn't say anything as he throws pleading eyes your way. Scoffing she lets go of him and instead walks over to kneel down at the circle of burning candles, "Make a damn wish! Do it now!" Shouts the insane witch, an enchanted breeze finding its way into the room even with lack of opened windows.
Jaskier slides down the wall as he looks to you who only shrugs in reply, this is his problem now. He shifts his attention back to the mage, "I don't...I don't know! I wish very badly to leave this place forever!" Cries Jaskier as Yennefer gasps, her breathing going deeper as she begins to chant something in Eldar. The room instantly fills with winds, papers flying across the room at the intrusion.
Holding tightly onto the shaking wooden beam of the bed you glance from Jaskier to Yennefer, "You're fucking crazy Yennefer! This is madness!" She all but ignores you, her chanting getting louder and louder as the magical winds send your hair flying in all directions, "Fuck. Jaskier get out of here while you can, the djinn is close I can feel it!" You scream above the noise, he quickly nods before jumping to his feet and racing out the opened door.
You turn a worried face to Yennefer, "I'm not sure about you but, lets not invite a fucking genie into this place! You don't even own it! And stop speaking Eldar before this dark fucker possesses you!" She doesn't even give you a glance, as right on cue does the black wispy shadow of the djinn seep into the room and hastily flow into her body.
Your eyes go wide at the abrupt turn of events, "Fine. I'll save you myself, fucking mages." You mutter before taking a step forward, in an instant her eyes shoot open to reveal a sickly pink covering the entirety of her whole eyeball, she shoots up a hand and before you have a chance to do anything. Your whole body is thrown back into the hard glass window and straight out into the misty morning air as you free fall towards the grassy courtyard below.
Taken off guard but anticipating the nearing ground, you quickly stop yourself and levitate mere inches from the earth. You lower your feet onto the grass, an annoyed sigh leaving your lips as you pick some glass shards out of your arms and pant legs. You stand in the morning light beginning to rethink your life choices when pained screams are heard from up above, it's Yennefer, she's screaming at Geralt to make a wish so she can finally have all the power. Clearly things are not going well by any means, so instead of leaving her to an inevitable demise like how you'd planned, you fly back up to the broken window and right into the windy chaotic mess of a room.
A pillow nearly misses your head when you arrive just as the djinn screams for Geralt to use his wish on anything that he so desires. You jog over to the circle of candles as his golden eyes find yours, "Just make a fucking wish!" You shout before the djinn compels Yennefer to throw you against the far wall in an act of mindless rage. You're back hits the wood first, your head cracking against it with a thud, ouch.
You fall to the messy floor in a daze, a single trickle of blood falling down the side of your temple as you stand to slowly regain your bearings once again. Although when you look up, it appears that Geralt has spoken his last wish, the wind has dissipated and Yennefer seems to have come around to her mostly normal self.
Breathing heavily from her spot on the floor she turns to you, "Is it over?" She whispers tiredly, "Is it done?"
Sensing movement from the attic you zero in on the noise, "Oh fuck it's still here!" You bellow before the ceiling crumbles and cracks open, wood, stone, metal and whatever else bursting through as the djinn destroys the roof. Your eyes go wide as a large piece of wood breaks away, heading straight for Yennefer, more chunks racing down for Geralt as well.
In a blur you're able to save them both from a suddenly violent death as you rest them against the floor away from the destructive mess happening near the bed and windows. Geralt sits up and scoots back as you rest your old friend upon a soft red and gold pillow, she's asleep from the quick rushed movement you'd just subjected her to. You're going to have to remember that not everyone is very fond of whiplash.
Leaning over her, you lightly shake her arm, "Yennefer. It's me, Y/N. Wake up idiot." Her lavender irises slowly flicker open as you sit back, a sigh of relief leaving your parted lips as you turn to make sure Geralt's alright. He's already asleep on another large blue pillow, so much for the mighty Witcher.
"Wha...what?" She mumbles softly before her eyes open wider in realization, "Y/N why did you stop me! I nearly had it, I was so close and you ruined it, why di..."
Your brows furrow in confusion at her needless outburst, "You had shit, I saved your life! You ungrateful..."
"Oh, well I saved that fucking bard's life and your precious Witcher's...but now he's let the djinn escape! Who knows what havoc it'll wreak now that it has no vessel at all?" She fumes, glaring at you angrily.
Rolling your scarlet eyes at her frustration, you sit down on the carpeted floor, "No more havoc then you. Djinns are only dark creatures when held captive."
"How can you be so sure?" She snaps.
You raise an eyebrow at her, "When did you last feel happy when you felt trapped? And besides, if you were going to portal us to safety, you could have taken us out of this shit town!"
Yennefer huffs in annoyance, "A fine critique if you could make a portal yourself. Or better yet, turn into a giant bat and fly us away from here...and it wasn't a shit town, it was fine till you and your two incompetent imbeciles came along. I had a plan!" She exclaims pointedly as you begin to chuckle.
Her glare hard pressed as you smirk, "And that was going rather swimmingly!"
"It was!" Snaps Yennefer, "Like a drowning fish." She looks to you with angry eyes, her fire slowly brimming as a smile breaks out onto her face.
"More like a dead and dry one." You muse with a laugh as you frown, "oh gods look at us, how'd we ever get here huh....from Aretuza to the destroyed aftermath of a fucking djinn."
Her face falters for a moment as she thinks over your words, "Who can say? Bad choices perhaps, maybe we do it to ourselves for the fun of it."
"Maybe you're just a thrill seeker." She gives you a half offended glare as you simply stick your tongue out at her, "But we've survived nonetheless, I'll take that as a promising sign for the time being."
"I guess that means something then." She looks down to her hands, a downcast expression crossing her sweaty features, "I am glad to have seen you again in all honesty, it's just been a very long while since I've seen anyone familiar." Admits the violet eyed mage.
You shrug, "Or tolerable?"
"Yes, or tolerable. My life at court was...almost all for naught, I feel like I didn't do anything worth my time there....even got a knife through my shoulder when the Queen I was accompanying was killed by an assassin. I was done." She explains with a frown, you can tell something else about it bothers her, but you'd rather not press your curiosity.
"The things I miss when I'm elsewhere. Who needs a life at court anyway...I on the other hand was never meant to rule a castle. Perhaps it's a good thing my mother won't ever age, or die. And I have my freedom to roam the Continent as I please, a free woman bound by nothing but what I choose, and so I have." She gives you a downcast smile.
"I almost envy you Y/N. Truly. Now if only I could know what your Witcher happened to have wished for, but I'd rather not wake him. He almost looks peaceful in a sleeping bear kind of way." She adds while looking behind you at a snoozing Geralt, his chest slowly rising and falling with each soft breath.
You turn a loving gaze upon him, "Guess he does, doesn't he? Like a grimy sweaty mess of a man...my big grumpy bear." You muse, your eyes studying his face lovingly as a sudden idea comes to mind, you turn back to Yennefer with a mischievous smirk, "You know what, the bards recently single..."
Her face is almost a grimace as she shakes her head, "I'll take my chances elsewhere. But thank you Y/N, always watching out for me, usually pretty shit advice most often." She jests while rising to her feet, "I must be off before the town comes for my head, see you around...hopefully under better circumstances and with less destructive endings." You stand to your full height, a couple inches taller then Yennefer.
You both lean in for a parting hug, "Goodbye, Yennefer." Letting go of one another she hands you a small smile, "Try not to get killed Y/N."
"You. Try not to get involved with, well, you know." She nods before turning around and opening up a portal to some sunny ocean side market, you watch as she walks through it without another word, and off into the unknown she goes.
Yawning and feeling slightly off put from the whole ordeal, you turn to look over at Geralt, he's still out cold on the giant fluffy blue pillow. You smile adoringly at him before scooting yourself over, finally letting yourself rest near his peacefully sleeping form as you wait patiently for him to wake.

Legacy
“Tell me about him?” Morgan says.
Peter sits beside her in the dirt, leaning his back against the cracked headstone. He never talks about Tony, not with anyone. Especially not with Morgan. It’s not just a slippery slope—it’s a cracked, eroded, vertical decline with nowhere to go but down. One second, he’ll tell her about Eugene Thomson’s expression when Iron Man showed up to the decathlon final. The next, he’ll tell her about turning to dust in Tony’s arms, whimpering he didn’t want to die while Tony stroked his hair and clung to him. Peter has no filter. Not when it comes to Mr. Stark.
“Why don’t you tell me about him, instead?” Peter says.
Morgan makes a face. At eleven, she’s every bit her father’s daughter. She has his haughty eyes, his sharp nose, and the same regal intelligence that steals every room she enters. She’ll start her sophomore year of high school next fall, four years ahead of schedule. The papers call her a prodigy, but it makes Peter nervous. Brilliance has a cost.
“I don’t remember him,” she says. “He died when I was five.”
There’s a lump in Peter’s throat as he traces the harsh T on the headstone.
“You don’t remember him at all?”
“Nope,” she says, popping the ‘p.’ “Nothing.”
“Doesn’t your mom talk about him?”
Morgan shrugs an arrogant, dismissive shrug that makes Peter’s heart twist in his chest.
“Sure,” she says. “But it’s Father’s Day, and she’s at a conference in Japan. And you’re hanging out in a graveyard with me. What does that tell you?”
“That I have no social life?”
“That too.”
Morgan pauses. She scoots besides Peter, leaning her head against his shoulder. Her high tops are scuffed with muddy dirt, and the bouquet of flowers have begun to wilt. The headstone is frigid against Peter’s back, and there’s a lump caught in his throat. He doesn’t think he’s ever felt so cold.
“When does thinking about your dead dad stop hurting?” Morgan asks.
Her scowl is emotionless, but Peter sees the dampness in her eyes. It’s so rare that she shows vulnerability, even with him. She lost her childhood the second Thanos lost the war. Her father died saving the world, and she’s been hounded by reporters and followed by cameras every day since. Tony’s grave is in the middle of nowhere, unmarked except for that single ‘T,’ and there’s not a damn thing Peter can say that will bring her comfort. At least, not if he’s honest.
“Life doesn’t get easier, kid,” Peter says. He ruffles her hair. “But you’ll get stronger, and more capable of handling the stuff it throws at you.”
“Easy for you to say. You’re Spiderman.”
“Even after I got my powers, it was really hard,” Peter says, nudging her. “I had so much to learn, and I was such a little shit…”
That makes her smile. “I bet you were.”
“I drove your dad nuts.” Peter’s voice is thick. He clears his throat, but that doesn’t help. He hasn’t gotten worked up like this in so long. It takes him back to Wakanda, apologizing over and over as Mr. Stark struggled to speak…
“He loved you so much,” Morgan says. “He used to tell me bedtime stories about the Amazing Spiderman. About all the crazy adventures you got up to. Rescuing cats from trees, and hounding Uncle Happy, and eating churros old ladies bought for you.”
“I thought you didn’t remember anything,” Peter manages to say.
His throat feels so tight. How is he still this emotional? He’s twenty-two, a college graduate, and he’s heading the R&D department of Stark Industries. He’s finally got his life together. It’s his job to hold it together for Morgan, the way Ben and May always held it together for him. He’s not a kid anymore.
She doesn’t meet his eyes. “I remember some things.”
“Like what?” Peter says encouragingly.
“He liked popsicles,” she says. “He made the best voices when my stuffed animals had tea parties. And he always made time for me. If I asked him to play, he’d drop everything.”
“Yeah,” Peter says. He tries desperately not to think about the ferry incident. “He was good at being there when we needed him.”
“I don’t remember the important stuff,” says Morgan, “like how he looked in the Iron Man suit or watching him save the world.”
“Good,” Peter says. “That’s not what he’d want you to remember.”
A raven caws in the distance. The sun is beginning to set behind the hills, and it’s getting cold. Morgan moves closer, worming her way under his arm. Peter watches the determined look in her eyes, and he can’t help but remember the first time he ever met Tony. He was around her age, visiting the Stark Expo with Ben. The homicidal robots took over the place, and Peter, safe behind his plastic mask, lifted a hand to blast one of them…
“Do you miss him?” Morgan asks.
There’s no point lying. “Every day,” Peter says. He sniffs. “He’d be so proud of you. Of both of us.”
“We’re his legacy,” Morgan says, nodding importantly. “That’s what the papers say.”
Peter gives a little laugh. He pulls her closer and inhales the sweet scent of damp dirt. He reaches out behind him, to trace that single letter ‘T,’ and he tries to remember what it was like to be young. Back when he thought he was a superhero, even though his only outfit was a stupid plastic mask. When he finally got powers for real, and he used them to get cats out of trees. Peter thinks about all the messages he left Happy, and all the hours he spent in the lab with Tony. Mr. Stark, his mentor. Mr. Stark, his friend.
The problem is, it’s been six years. And just like Morgan, Peter feels like he’s starting to forget. Every time they come back here, it’s like losing Tony all over again.
“We’re not his legacy,” Peter says, and he presses a kiss to the top of Morgan’s head. “We’re his children.”
“I like that,” Morgan says.
“Yeah,” Peter agrees. “I do, too.”

Love me for who I am now
Tumblr media
Bucky x Reader ( Chapter 1 )
Part1 / Next 
Summary: You apply for the Stark internship and end up getting it, so now you have 5 months to make a good impression to continue working with the Avengers.
A/N: This is my first Marvel fic and I am taking it as a challenge. It is opposite of what my account was made, but here I go. Sorry for any mistakes made, hope you enjoy it even a tiny bit.
Word count:  3,281
Warmings: fights, harsh language, not part of the original MCU 
Y/N- Your name Y/L/N:  Your Last Name
                                   --------------------------------------
  Through sleepless nights and dark circles, books and pens, through months of work you reached your goal. The moment you received the acceptance letter from Stark University you almost flew out the window without a fear in your mind. This was it!
  Time had passed since that moment, but it is still engraved in your mind- a memory keeping you strong during the hard midterms and piles of work, even the small glimmers of regret. Trying your best wasn’t an option, you could do only that and no less. It was no easy task, lost social life as much as you tried to keep it. You were really lucky you had good friends that understood and supported you. University wasn’t easy for anyone making this one even tougher. People of all ages, backgrounds and cultures were piled up with you in this building. The best of the best as the slogan said, the ones that proved themselves and emerged victorious.
  When you were young ,you used to spend a lot of time with your uncle at his places outside the country. He would introduce you to his work colleagues and things you had never seen before. There was a time where you would spend months on end with him. Not many memories were left from those moments in your head. At one point you spend a few years with him, your mother thought it would be good experience for you and it turned out to be nothing but the truth-at least you hoped so. You learned a lot from him and his friends, it felt like each spend day would offer you more knowledge in areas you never knew of. Computer work, ways of thinking and so much more that had become second nature to you.
  The sky was tinted in a wash of oranges, reds and yellows bleeding one into the other, swirling around the sun emitting them. The day was ending, but you found yourself filling up an application in the library, covered by the silence and smell of exam worry.
  Sponsored and founded by the one and only Tony Stark, this establishment offered an internship. Being part of the Avengers, Tony didn’t let just anyone from the students attending in, even if they were the best labeled by the school. It had been a year and a half since you started pushing yourself harder to be able to apply and there was nothing that could stop you. Pressing your finger over the enter button was very nerve wrecking yet simple. Even if it didn’t work out this year, you planned to do it again and again ,till he had no other choice but give you a chance.
  Usually F.R.I.D.A.Y. went over everything and left only the applications worth going over by Tony himself or Pepper. The next 5 weeks for you were very stressful, but there was nothing more you could do but wait and focus on your own work. The first person you wanted to tell about this was your uncle. He went to work in some distant place where they had no internet so you switched to mail. Not as much paper under his name passed through your hands, as he had stopped answering you. You missed him, but the muddy childhood memories kind of compensated for that.
“Did you send it in?” the phone muffled a bit the sweet voice coming from the speaker 
“Yeah, a few days ago actually.” You answered with a gentle sigh
“And no answer yet?” the girl’s pitch rose at the end of the sentence, amazed at that what she just heard
“I know, I know. Think about it though Nea. Who knows how many applications get submitted. Someone has to brush through them after all.” defending the situation was a form of coping for you, made you feel hopeful.
“So you are trying to tell me Tony Stark’s interface or whatever it’s called, can’t sort them out in a couple of hours? Come on Y/N! You and I both know you are trying to make yourself feel better.” The small pause made you anxious over what Nea said “Listen.” A breathy start of the sentence “ I don’t mean to brag, but I think I am one of the people who know exactly how much you deserve this. You were never the studious type, plus that you were gone for years on end with that mysterious uncle of yours. I never expected you to suddenly go for Stark University. Your dream changed you, from this quiet kid to crazy ol’ you right now on the call with me.I ain’t letting you bust yourself up over this just because it didn’t happen the first time around-”
                Ding ding
  Nea’s deep speech was cut off before she could unleash herself completely, by the slight ring of your phone’s notification.
“Who tf has the audacity to text while the great me is giving this legendary –“
                Ding!
  The second time the sound sung out made her choke up with anger, you could almost see the fumes coming out of the phone.
“WHO IS IT!” a loud hiss pierced your ear
“Maybe if you gave me a minute I could answer your question.” Pulling the call down, your finger ran over the screen to the email, making your notification lamp blink like a car. Almost instantly it opened before your eyes and you gasped. The action made you swallow suddenly and cough out a bit ,giving poor Nea an idea about the level of shock you were in.
“What?What? You can’t just almost die and not tell me what is going on.” She proceeded with a not so tasteful interrogation.
“I-…they accepted my application…” at the end a small smile flowed over your lips contorting the sound coming out
“Stop!?” she choked up as well “You gotta be fucking with me!? No fucking way this is real!”
“I am honest. It says here that they liked my skill set, my grades and the way of thinking I presented in my essay. I got the spot Nea! I fucking did it!” you threw the phone on the bed letting it bounce as you started dancing.
“Of course you did! I told you! You will be working with THE AVENGERSSSS!” at some point it sounded like your best friend was more excited than you “When do you start?”
“Well…” taking a second to calm down and re-establish contact with your phone, you looked up the schedule that came attached with the email “…ok…so it says here that I will be starting on Monday so~ in 2 days? “
“So soon! Any requirements for the job miss Avenger’s sidekick?” and the teasing begins
“A list, surprisingly.” Rolling onto your back, you held the screen away and above your face, scrolling past “ I guess my first job will be with Dr. Banner in the lab. Apparently I will be given some sort of assignments throughout the 5 months work span. I will be monitored by Dr. Bruce Banner and the grading, I guess if you can call It that ,will be done by Tony Stark himself.”
“Basically Hulk will be your babysitter.” once this girl starts teasing she never stops even in amazing situations such as this one, good thing you loved her “That sounds so cool though! You will be able to meet Captain America and Black Widow~! I am so jelly of you I swear! When you leave work make sure to wait for someone from the group to walk by, omgggg I am fangirling so much right now.What if you go to dinners with them!?AAAAA!”
“Fun thing about that.” Your eyes landed on the last paragraph of the email “It says here that I am supposed to move into the compound and stay there till further notice. The whole idea is that if I do things well I will get a permanent job. Weird…” you hummed
“Weird !? How? That is so cool! Who knows you might even become an Avenger! You will be living with them anyways.” at this point Nea was either not breathing or hyperventilating so fast you couldn’t hear it
“Don’t be ridiculous.” your attention landed once more on the thought process you had a moment ago “I don’t get one thing. They say here that my PE grades combined with my IT and overall studies make me a great candidate, but I don’t remember sports being a requirement at all, or even providing them in the first place. Does it mean that if my grades were low in that department I wouldn’t have gotten the spot?”
“I guess people of science aren’t that flexible. Who cares anyways! You got in, no ifs and buts. I am telling you, at this point you could be an Avenger.” poor girl began thinking of names and suit designs for you “ Hurry up and pack those bags before I drop by with take away, so we can gossip over Steve Rogers’s abs.”
“Um…don’t get me wrong he is super hot, I just see the Cap more like an older brother figure than anything.” It was true, you looked up to him since the first time you studied about the Civil War. Fearless, gave his life in a way for his people, astonishing man over all.
“Hey! Let me drool over him! You were always more of a Winter Soldier fan anyways.” Nea pouted audibly . Her words made some lone memory pop up in your head, but it was as murky as the rest. “I don’t know why I am interested in him. Somehow his look is very nostalgic and rugged. Anyways. ”you shook your head out of the mental image of the soldier “I will go pack up, tell my parents and fix up all my documents. Probably find some stuff from former Stark employees online. I want to have a bit of an idea of what he expects and what I am getting myself into.”
“Fine fine, you could have just said you like troubled guys. You were the one who was happy Loki got a second chance after all. I will be over in like 3 hours.” She informed you
“Hey! He deserved to redeem himself, he was used!” a firm Loki supporter as always “Ok then, see ya.”
   Hanging up the call you placed your phone to charge and rolled off your bed. The email gave vague information about what you needed, but clothing wise you would still be able to come home and get stuff if you had to. What was on top of your priorities were papers, documents, all your research materials and tech. Those things had to be organized no matter what ,since they got you this far in the first place.
  Nae came over as planned and you two had a nice sleepover talking about you know who. The night came and left, letting the morning find you in your bed at 11am. Your forearm rested on top of your forehead in a relaxed manner, letting enough space for an exhale to linger in the air in front of you. Your mind was going over everything that was about to happen to you. It was one of your dreams, you worked for it nonstop day in day out, so why were you so worried about meeting the rest of the Avengers? Maybe it was just anxiety or fear of the unknown, yeah made sense.
  All you did during the day was make lists for every piece of tech you were binging with yourself. Things seemed to be in order, but worry kept nibbling on your bones. The moment of truth finally rolled up and so did your suitcase in front of your house. Nea came to send you off as she promised.
“Sweetie, make sure to call us every day. Eat well, don’t overwork yourself and-“ your mom went off with caution about anything and everything that came to mind
“Mom, you know I am going 3 blocks down from here right? Plus I can come home at any time I want to. I am not moving to Mars or getting arrested.” You smirked the panic away from her, giving them a big hug.
“Call me or text me when you get there.” Nea pulled you in, whispering in your ear as quietly as possible “And don’t forget to sneak me a booty pick of good ol’Cap. You know what they say-”
“That is America’s ass.” Your voice came out in a mocking tone
“That i-…let me at least finish it by myself! Geez!” she pushed you towards the door “Ok ok, go now before you spoil me something else” her arms crossed in front of her chest
  The walk wasn’t that long, you were too invested in your own thoughts to notice when the time and distance had passed. The glistening windows of the compound building shined into your eyes. Your lungs filled up with a breath that they kept in for a moment, before releasing it back in the outside world. Pulling out the documents you stepped in. The fresh smelling air hit you making you close one eye for a second.
People were walking around you fast and concentrated. Some looked in a hurry, others were on break with a cup of coffee and a strain-leaving expression.
 Your feet, as slightly shaky as they were, took you right up to the front desk were a lady with a dark rich red colored uniform looked at you. She flashed a professional smile, her eyes asking for your purpose.
“Um, hello. My name is Y/N -Y/L/N.” she saw the logo on your papers and gasped
“You must be the new intern Mr. Stark told us about.” She signed something and reached out “Can you give me your hand for a second.” Your fingers didn’t go past the surface of the desk when she pocked your skin. Pulling in your extremity, your palm wrapped around the spot that began to sting a bit “Don’t worry about it. This is your identification pass. Fancy, no?” she smiled winking. Her body stood up as she pointed at the elevator far in the back of the foyer.
  Instructions were given with each step of the way, calming your nerves a bit. The moment you found yourself inside the elevator she pulled your hand to the sensor on the wall next to the buttons.
Recognized: Code 2514. Welcome Miss Y/N  
 Your head shot up when F.R.I.D.Y.’s voice echoed in the small space. The women smiled giving you a small nod and stepped out of the vicinity. Once her body was outside ,the doors slid closed. Over them glowed a protective blue light layering over the material like a soft veil.
 It felt like you weren’t moving an inch. Your body flinched when the sun stung at your eyes from the window. Your gaze landed over the view of the city, as you went higher and higher, ascending into the clouds  The blues and yellows were covering the inside of the elevator, such vibrant and lovely colors warming your body. For a moment your heart felt heavy- lost memory tugged onto it again. An often occurrence lately, yet you kept brushing off as deja vu. 
Floor 134. Welcome to the Avenger’s compound Miss Y/N
“134!?” the numbers cracked out with your voice. The interface made you turn towards the opposite opening doors revealing a room as big as a hall, if not almost a stadium. The ceiling was high being the lid to this round area. Your heart beat increased pumping blood to your body, dilating your pupils at least twice their original size. It look amazing, almost like you had just entered heaven. The walls were white, the furniture was perfectly placed and cream colored. Stepping outside you jumped at the sound of the elevator doors closing behind you. 
“Wow” escaped your lips, your hand pulling the suitcase closer. So this was the common room or the shared space. The windows were so big they were practically a wall of their own. The bright rays were making themselves at home giving the white paint a new color with each passing minute. The ceilings were probably the equivalent of 3 floors in height. There was this weird feeling of home inside, a bit of isolation maybe mixed in. 
“Miss Y/N?” your head swung to the side when you recognized that shy but bright smile. Throwing the papers on top of your suitcase, you extended your arm at the man.
“Ah.” Good thing your mind automatically responds politely to people without you giving it much thought “Dr. Banner. It is my pleasure to make your acquaintance.” you shook his hand gently a couple of times and let go ,finding the papers and showing them to him “My name is Y/N-Y/L/N.” gentle bow and a smile followed the words skillfully chosen
“Welcome Welcome. Tony is out right now so I might be the only one actively walking around the compound. Well…”he scratched the back of his neck, lightly hunching over with a sheepish smile “I am one of the people you will be working under anyways, so I guess it is good that I came to get you. I would love to show you the lab, but I am sure you would like to set up your things first.” You nodded and he showed you to your room. The corridor had 3 tall doors scattered on the walls, all looking modern and elegant.
“This is the side where usually we have our female members. Natasha and Wanda will be your nextdoor neighbors. Hope it won’t be any trouble.” Bruce looked at you ,when an aggressive shake took over your neck
“No, no. Not at all sir. I am very grateful to have such amazing heroes next to me. As a matter of fact won’t they be troubled with me here?” and here came the normal anxiety that you had for everything
“I am sure they will like you. Don’t worry about it.” Bruce stepped next to the door and waved you over “You don’t have a key or a door handle as a matter of fact. Tony’s idea, don’t ask. If you got up here on your own I assume he made the girls downstairs give you an identification implant. That is basically your entrance for everything here. Kind of an Avengers thing.” You nodded and him wiggling his fingers like a spell. Placing your hand on the door like he told you activated F.R.I.D.A.Y.
Recognized: Y/N. Access and ownership granted.
  The metal frame slid open and you found yourself standing before a big room. It was nicely furnished. The desk was big enough for you to work on it and have everything around. Bookshelves empty and ready to be used on your left and a large bed on your right flush against the wall. The window was once more its own wall right in front of you standing behind the desk. The bathroom door was opening a space before the shelf the same color as the paint in the common room.
“I will let you set up. If you need anything F.R.I.D.A.Y. is always here. The room is interactive, you can ask exactly what works under the interface’s control. The door is one.Take your time.”he was on his way out “Would you like some coffee or tea?”
“I would like some tea, thank you very much.” Bruce flashed you a smile “F.R.I.D.A.Y. the door please.”
Door closed 
  Done as said and requested, clicking behind you. 
Would you like an extensive list of my functions as an assistant?
“Please do.”

You said you had Jess ships. What are these Jess ships?
I used to be utterly indifferent to Jess/Morgan, but fanfic warmed me up lol. Actually Sword and Pen made a difference, because I feel like they both gave each other up, which okay under the circumstances of acutelygrieving&thendying/turning into Obscurist vampire is fair enough but idk, I still discovered that I didn't want them to end like that. I originally believed, as I read, that Morgan would sacrifice herself to save Jess. That might have suited my tastes 😂 I do headcanon Morgan as somewhere on the aromantic spectrum, though of course there are endless other interpretations.
Jess/Thomas was my very first ship! Thank you to Ash and Quill for that, specifically. Other blogs have said better things about this ship than I can, textual comparisons between Wolfe/Santi, etc. I just love them. Sword and Pen gave me so many great moments, too. (if anyone is fairly new to this blog and wondering why I am talking about a 2019 book like it's new, a) COVID time and b) I had an exceedingly intense 10 months of fandom before S&P in which I decided on lots of things and then they all got affected drastically by the last book 😂. I personally headcanon that Thomas is already in love with Jess, and just waiting for Jess to realise. He got pretty close by the end of the series, tbh.
Jess/Thomas/Morgan. This is how I see these 3 working, post-canon. Thomas/Jess central, with Morgan more free to do as she pleases. Thomas/Morgan is amazing, okay??
Jess/Dario. This is just fun. Sexual tension, enemies/rivals vibe, but with the fascinating interplay that Dario was canonically envious of everything that Jess could do. Also, well, when your first act as narrator is to call him ''impossibly good-looking'', what's a lifelong slasher to do?
Jess/Khalila. I'm not even sure I ship it. I don't actually know what they'd be like as a combo. They are certainly adorable. But I see such strong textual support for it (check out my readthroughs) that I fully accept it and would love to read more or maybe even write fics about it one day. (I don't THINK we have anything focusing specifically on that ship?)
Jess/Khalila/Dario. Khalila would like that, I think. I think any relationship with Dario in would be high drama, and maybe they'd use each other to chill. But I'm not sure Jess could be trusting and transparent enough for her not to take it personally. Idk. It's good fun, though.
Tumblr media
And of course, Wolfe. Jess would be over 18 but the power dynamic would still be fucked up, that's half the fun of it. I can see Wolfe/Jess in a loving, cuddly way, as well as hawt age gap sex though. They are actually quite touchy-feely in the books. (daddy issues. They both have SO MANY daddy issues.) oh and on that note Wolfe/Morgan/Jess which directly plays on EVERYONE'S daddy issues is monstrously hot. (again because tumblr will tumbl, everyone is overage in my head. Their exact canonical ages at the end of the series is a bit muddy?? 17? 18??)
Oh and a random one I forgot about that's fun too, Jess/Sybilla (one scene mention, an Obscurist who had a crush on Morgan) as a probably unhealthy way for them to grieve Morgan. (I guess it could become healthy, but nah.)
Oh, another crack ship, Jess/Troll.
Thanks Ros!

Macarons...
Tumblr media
Card: Ceremony Robes - SR Characters: Epel, Rook, Vil, Pomefiore students
Chapter 1
—POMEFIORE DORM - LOUNGE—
Pomefiore Student A: Alright! Before we start our welcome party, why don’t we introduce ourselves to the other Pomefiore freshmen?
Pomefiore Student B: Okay, I’ll start. How are you, everyone? As members of the same dorm, I hope we’ll all get to know each other this upcoming school year.
Pomefiore Student A: Excuse me for asking, but... are you by chance from the Rose Kingdom? You have the fragrance of a blooming flower.
Pomefiore Student B: Pomefiore students are just as observant as you’d expect! I’m amazed you could tell through my special parfum.
Pomefiore Student A: Are you from the Land of Pyroxene? That finely-crafted jewelry glittering on your fingers surely must be the work of a reputable jeweler...
Epel: ...Oh no...
Pomefiore Student A: And what’s your name?
Epel: Huh?! M... M-Me?
Uh... um... I... I’m...
......
Pomefiore Student B: Poor thing... He looks so frightened. Like a kitten all alone in the rain.
Pomefiore Student A: Oh, there’s no need to feel so nervous! Forgive me for being so rude; I shouldn’t have asked your name all of a sudden!
Epel: No, um... I... I’m Epel Felmier...
Pomefiore Student A: Epel-kun! It has a ring to it like a little bird’s song, fitting for a lovely figure like you.
Pomefiore Student B: That sorrowful face, tinged with gloom... What fragile beauty. Surely you must be the son of a noble family.
Epel: No, I’m nothing like that...
Pomefiore Student B: All of you are perfect matches for Pomefiore, where elegant students gather. I have a feeling we’re all going to get along well!
(Chattering...)
Pomefiore Student A: Just look at the Pomefiore lounge! So many luxurious furnishings... Not even my home has this much.
Pomefiore Student B: And the carpet is so finely woven and full of luster. What brand is it? Epel-kun, do you know?
Epel: I don’t...
Pomefiore Student B: Then, what are your favorite brands?
Epel: Huh? Brands?! Um, I... don’t really have any, I think?
Pomefiore Student B: So you’re not too picky about brands; I like that! I’m positive you’ll find an artisan to offer your patronage to!
Epel: Hahaha, haha... ...Hah.
Pomefiore Student A: Oh? Epel-kun, where are you going?
Epel: Um... I was starting to not feel too well...
So I was going outside to get some air...
Pomefiore Student B: Epel-kun is very delicate. And there are so many people here. Of course he must feel fatigued.
Pomefiore Student A: With that slender physique and porcelain skin... It’s no wonder. I hope this isn’t too serious.
—POMEFIORE DORM—
Epel: ...Hahhh...
I really... I really wanted to get into the wild and brave Savanaclaw instead!!
I can’t believe I got sorted into Pomefiore, led by a dorm leader who says things like that...
This is the complete opposite of the school life I dreamed about!
...I have to study harder, improve my magic, and get even stronger.
And then, someday—!!
???: Oh? I thought I saw a lovely papillon perched over here...
That hair and eye color—you must be the rumored freshman Vil was talking about. Epel-kun, was it?
Epel: Papillon...? Er, did you say “rumored freshman”?
Rook: Bonsoir, Epel-kun. I’m Rook Hunt, a third-year.
Or feel free to call me le chasseur d’amour if you wish.
Epel: Le cha... what?
Rook: Yes, yes, I see now that could have potential, just like an apple that’s begun to turn red. May I call you Monsieur Cherry Apple?
Epel: Cherry Apple?! Get outta here! If anything, please pick a bigger, bulkier kind of apple!
I’m really picky when it comes to apples...
Rook: Anyway, Monsieur Cherry Apple! Now that the entrance ceremony is over, how do you like Pomefiore? It’s very beautiful, isn’t it?
Epel: Huh? ...Yeah... It’s so fancy and sparkly...
But the guys here are nothin’ but a bunch of real prim ‘n proper show-offs. Not that beautiful if you ask me.
I don’t think it really suits me, though. Having Pomefiore assigned to me must’ve been some kind of mistake.
Rook: Non, non, don’t say such dismal words. You carry a soul that’s perfect for Pomefiore.
I would know.
Epel: I really don’t think I do.
Rook: Why don’t we go back to where everyone else is? You mustn’t let your small shoulders fall to the devil of a cold.
Epel: No... I think I’ll stay here for a few more minutes.
Rook: Are you bad at socializing? No need to worry. I’ll accompany you!
Epel: This guy is not on the same page as me at all...!
Rook: Now, let’s go, Monsieur Cherry Apple.
Epel: I told you to stop calling me tha—... Senpai, are you listening to me?
Rook: Ohh~! Our beloved, beautiful Pomefiore~♪
Epel: S-Stop dragging me; you’re going to pull off my arm...!
Senpai! Rook-senpai! Let go—man, you’re really strong! What even is this grip you’ve got...!
Chapter 2
—POMEFIORE DORM - LOUNGE—
Pomefiore Student A: Oh, Epel-kun came back. We were too worried about you to even think about starting the first-years’ welcome party.
Pomefiore Student B: Are you feeling alright now? The cold air outside must’ve been hard on you. Come, get yourself warmed up.
Epel: Th-Thank you...
Rook: All of you Pomefiore students have only just met, and yet you’re so considerate towards each other... This sight is truly très bien!
Pomefiore Student A: You’re... Vice Dorm Leader Rook Hunt-san! It’s an honor to speak with you.
Epel: Whaaat?! Vice dorm leader?! This weirdo—er, unique person is the vice?!
Rook: Oh? Epel-kun, you weren’t listening to my introduction at the entrance ceremony? How naughty.
Epel: So not just the dorm leader, but the vice is this weird too... This is the worst.
Rook: Now, beautiful Pomefiore flower buds, let’s all take our seats and feast!
The dorm leader should be coming soon, too. Remember to mind your manners and enjoy yourselves.
Pomefiore Student B: All the food looks so delicious. And the way the table’s been set up is gorgeous!
Pomefiore Student A: We’re having a full-course dinner? How very formal. It’s perfect for us Pomefiore.
Epel: Good manners... Formalities... Even at dinnertime, that’s just what it looks like.
Hm? What’s that? There’s a big bowl with water in it.
It’s a weirdly-shaped glass, but I guess it fits for a Pomefiore dinner.
(Gulp gulp)
Pomefiore Student A: What?!
Pomefiore Student B: He drank... all the water from the finger bowl... which is for cleaning your hands...
(Murmuring...)
Epel: It doesn’t taste like anything... Huh, what happened?! Everyone’s looking at me really shocked...
D-Did I do something bad... maybe...?!
Rook: Monsieur Cherry Apple...
Epel: Y-Yes...?
Rook: ...Ahaha!
Drinking the water for cleaning your hands—what a fun, tasteful joke!
Epel: What?! That wasn’t just a fancy cup...?!
Pomefiore Student A: I see. You were lightening up the mood. Thank you!
Epel: Y-Yes. Well... Hahahaha...
Rook: ...Hey, do you see now why you need good etiquette?
Epel: Ahh... It’s true I almost got seriously humiliated there...
Rook: I don’t want to see you looking so anxious anymore. I’ll give you a lecture on table etiquette!
First, take off that napkin from around your neck. Wearing it like a scarf might be cute, but the norm is to rest it on your lap.
Epel: A-Alright. ...Okay, I’ll have some soup now.
(Slurp. Sluuuurp. Slurp slurp!)
Rook: Non! Were you trying to be an elephant slurping up water? You can’t make a single sound!
Tumblr media
Rook: And you must use your forks and knives in the order they’re placed, from the outside first.
Now, try acting in accordance with my instructions.
Epel: From the outside first, knife with your right hand, fork with your left...
Hah... Couldn’t I have done this all with a spoon?
???: Fresh potatoes!
Pomefiore Student B: Whoa, it’s so bright. What is this dazzling radiance...!
Epel: That’s...!
Vil: How is this welcome party I directed going? You’re all enjoying yourselves with sophistication, reason, and elegance, aren’t you?
Epel: Vil Schoenheit...!
Vil: That’s Vil-san to you, isn’t it? Epel Felmier.
Epel: ....!
Vil: How is everything going with this muddy baby potato, Rook?
Rook: Are you referring to Epel-kun? He’s trying his best. I was just in the middle of giving him a lecture on mealtime etiquette.
Vil: I see. ...But his manners aside, we have another issue right now.
Epel: Huh? Why are you coming up to me with that scary look on your face...?
Vil: Your posture is just terrible!
(Slap!)
Epel: OW!
Vil: All I did was give your back a push. You’re quite dramatic.
You don’t have a single sliver of grace in you. Epel, what is your favorite food?
Epel: Favorite food? BBQ meat. ...Agh!
Vil: ...I thought I heard an answer that was awfully unbefitting of this place. But surely I must’ve misheard?
I��ll ask again.
As a student of Pomefiore, founded on the heavy efforts of the Beautiful Queen, what is your favorite food?
Epel: It’s....
...It’s... macarons... Kgh!
Vil: Very good. Now, please adjust your posture as if you’re about to eat those macarons you love so much.
Epel: Why are you grabbing my head...! Agh, your grip’s real strong! You’re gonna crush my head like an apple! Yow! YOW!!
Vil: “Gonna crush”? Shouldn’t that be “going to crush?”
Furthermore... a person is shaped by the words they use. You will repeat everything from the beginning, this time using words I understand, won’t you?
Epel: You’re going to crush my head! It hurts!
Rook: You’re very receptive, Epel-kun.
Vil: Don’t lower your head while you’re eating. You aren’t bringing your mouth to the food, you’re bringing your food to your mouth.
And your face is much too slack. I’ll take ahold of your chin and secure it in place for you.
Epel: I cnfnhg lhgjhs. (I can’t eat like this.)
Vil: Keep your mouth shut while you’re eating.
Epel: Mphfgh...
(I came all this way to Night Raven College so I could become a strong, really cool mage, but...)
(All the people in the dorm I was assigned to are so annoying about appearances and customs...)
(This is the total opposite of the manliness I’d been dreaming about before I enrolled here!)
Whrs gnhung hpen fmnnon? (What’s gonna happen from now on...?)

can i req dazai x f!reader where dazai and her are kinda best friends(both of them hv feelings for each other)She’s is v cunning and manipulative using whatever means she can to get informations. They don’t want to confess to each other and they keep their feelings v well & it took one life threatening injury for him to confess to her like she’s at the brink of death fluff ending pls :)) omg this is so detailed
A/N: I’m sorry this took so long to write! Bt ughh, this is my first request, and thank you so much for sending it! Hope you like it :)))
Pairing: Dazai Osamu x fem!Reader
Genre: angst with a good ending
Warnings: mentions of blood, some bad writing here and there, 3k words cuz I have no chill
***
You watched the brunette man as he sipped his drink. You knew you shouldn't watch him like this, should conceal the love that was written all over your face.
He was a smart man, was one of the smartest people you have ever got to know. You knew he could figure the feelings you have harvested towards him if he wanted to, but you were also aware he chose not to notice these feelings that were so dear to you.
It would have been better to be away from him, as far as possible, but you found yourself becoming friends with him, it took only the smallest time before you two became best friends.
"I see you can't take your eyes off of me." He said with a playful wink. He grabbed his drink off the counter and sat on the chair next to you. "I was just wondering when you'll stop staring at me." Your words had a harsher tone than you would have liked, but he understood it anyway.
"But how can I not stare when there's such a beauty in front of me?" You knew these words had no romantic meanings behind them, that they were only a joke.
"Well, that's true."
"Of course it is." He looked at you with an expression you couldn't quite read. You were a natural at reading people, their feelings, and their thoughts, but when it came to Dazai, you were as good as blind. You could never understand what he was thinking, not when he was looking at you this way.
"What is it?" He asked after a few seconds of silence. You two were in a bar, in the middle of a group of people, but it felt like you were alone. How did he understand something was troubling you? How could he read you so good when you couldn't even tell what he felt?
You smiled, a sly smile you wore when you were playing with someone. Dazai didn't miss the smile either, as his playful girn wavered slightly, he eyed you like he was trying to read your mind. "How is work, Dazai? You never tell me anything these days."
"You know I can't afford to take the risk of telling you. I can't tell if you're interested in my life or my secrets." He shrugged as he smiled, and although he had a smile on, you knew he was serious.
"What do you think?" You winked, but you felt a frown tugging on your lips. You drank what's left of the burning liquid in your glass, not letting him see you were hurt. Dazai not trusting you was a wound you had, he was your best friend after all, but you didn't get any say much about it.
You watched as Kunikida started to lecture Atsushi on something, and it was aware that the subject was something Kunikida gave great importance. You laughed at the sight since this scene happened almost every time you were here. You weren't an official part of the armed detective agency, but they often called you in to help with some missions. They were mainly detective work that required someone who could get any information from anyone.
Although you weren't like them, you didn't have abilities as they did, you had something even better. You were good at reading people, leading them, making them think whatever you wanted them to think, and making them believe they were the genius behind the idea.
You were a natural at manipulating people, had a wit that could even put up with Dazai. You were proud of it too, it was how you lived after all, but this meant that no one could trust you. You knew it was frightening to be manipulated like a puppet, but you would have liked people to trust you. At least, for him to trust you.
But it was your fault, too. Dazai did trust you at one point in his life, but when he realized you had been taking information from him to give your boss, it was too late. When he figured it out, he wasn't mad at you, didn't even complain, say anything about it, but he stopped trusting you with his secrets, his thoughts, his feelings.
Dazai knew if he was going to be close to you, he had to conceal everything about himself, the attraction he felt towards you coming in first. When he figured your manipulative, sly personality he was amazed, and he just wanted to be close to you. You were on his mind constantly, even occupying the thoughts of suicide.
He wasn't hurt when you used him for information, it was your nature, and he had grown to love this personality of yours, but he had to close himself towards you too.
He smirked when he saw you looking at him, your eyes wandering over his face, trying to figure out what was on his mind. He was about to say something when Kunikida groaned. "You two stop flirting already! Our guy is here."
The playful mood changed almost instantly. Everyone turned their eyes to the man who had just entered the bar, except for Dazai. You could feel his eyes on you, but you ignored it, focusing on your work.
You looked at the man, analyzing him, figuring a way to approach him. He was probably was in his 20's, wore a tailored suit, an expensive-looking watch and shoes, although the leather shoes were muddy and dirty, a very sharp contrast to his fancy clothes and nicely done hair, indicating he had come here straight after his 'work'.
He was the son of a billionaire, a dirty billionaire who was working with the mafia. The armed detective agency was after some secret files, and all you had to do was to find out where these files were, after that they were going to handle it. You watched as the man sat on the bar seat, ordering whiskey for himself.
You inhaled an anxious breath and gathered up your courage. This wasn't the first time you were doing something like this, but there was always a risk, and you couldn't afford to relax.
You started to walk towards him with a flirty smile, a smile you have mastered in the past years. You sat next to him, touching his arm lightly and making him focus on you. You saw the small gleam on his eyes when his eyes wandered over your body, the black dress you were wearing, your legs, and your breasts.
You smiled. It was going to be easier than you had thought.
~~~
Dazai hated that he had to watch you smile to the man, touch him, get close to him, watch him looking at you like you were meat on a silver plate. His hands brushed your legs experimentally, sometimes wandering a little too much.
You never even glanced once in his way, but he knew it was because you were a professional, and that could lead you to blow your cover. You were the best at what you did, and he was amazed by you, but now it felt like it was burning him inside. Though, that burning sensation could be the alcohol too.
"They're going." Kunikida stood up as you exited the bar and went in his car.
~~~
"I think I drank a little too much." You said with a neatly faked drunken smile, slurring your words on purpose. Your eyes scanned the car in merely seconds, thinking of the possible places he could have hidden the files as he buckled his seatbelt.
You leaned on him, nuzzling your face in his neck as you secretly checked his side of the door to see if the files were there, they were not. "Is your place close?" You asked kissing his neck softly. He chuckled at your needy behavior and started the car. "Don't worry, you're gonna get what you're asking for in a few minutes."
For some reason, that sentence just didn't seem right, but you concealed your worry immediately.
"I- I feel dizzy. Do you have any water?" You asked as you acted to open the glove box. His eyes widened as he tried to stop you from doing so, but you were quicker.
Bingo.
The files were in there, his eyes looked at you cautiously as you pouted slightly. "Ugh, paperwork! How boring." You said as you closed it back, though your heart was racing. You hadn't expected to find them in his car, and you didn't know what you were going to do to get away from him since Kunikida told you he was going to wait for you at his place.
He grinned as he slowed his car. A grin that just didn't sit right with his ignorant attitude, and you shivered but smiled to hide your growing fear.
"Are we at your place already?!" you asked, although you knew you weren't even close to his house. You glanced him sideways only to find him looking at you too. Your heart was beating so fast in your chest, a knot of fear forming in your stomach. "No, we're not."
"But why did we stop? I thought you wanted to-"
"Gotta give you credit. You're an amazing actor. If I didn't know who you were, I would have fallen for this charade instantly." He said, and you noticed his hand going to his back, under his coat. Your eyes widened with fear as you quickly opened your seatbelt and threw yourself out the door, but he caught your arm and pulled you back.
"Oh, no." He said with an expression that sent shivers down your back, his smile reminding you of the Cheshire cat. "You're not going anywhere."
~~~
"Where are they?!" Kunikida said, feeling his worry growing with every passing second. He glanced at the man who sat next to him, a relaxed, uninterested look on his face. But Kunikida knew his friend very well, and he knew Dazai was worried out of his mind.
Dazai knew something was up when you were late. You were never late. He just didn't want to get in the way of your work just because he was jealous, he had noticed his feelings towards you growing, even more, the last few months and Dazai couldn't tell if he was acting irrationally when it was about you. But now it was just too much, he couldn't hold it in anymore and had to find you, or this feeling in his chest was going to kill him.
Dazai stood up, making Kunikida look at him with worried eyes. "Dazai, you cant-" Dazai sent him a look that made Kunikida sure that there was nothing that could stop Dazai now.
Kunikida sighed. "I'm coming with you."
~~~
He had left you on the side of the road as you pressed your hand on your wound, trying to stop the blood. Your hands felt cold, and you couldn't stop them from shaking. Your hands were painted in red, and even though you were dying, you only had one thing, or one person, on your mind. Dazai.
If you closed your eyes, you could almost see his brown eyes looking at you, his lips turned upwards in a playful grin, and you wanted nothing more than for him to be with you now. You wished to tell him how you felt about him, to touch his face, his hair. And most of all, you wanted to at least share one kiss with him before you died.
You felt guilty, dying before him, but your life was draining out of you as your blood escaped your fingers, and you could swear you heard him call your name. Maybe it was your consciousness closing and your mind playing you tricks, but if it was only a dream, you were still glad to have heard his voice one last time.
"No, no, no! Oh shit, Y/N!" Your eyes were closed as you felt foreign hands pressing on your wound, and combing your hair back from your face. Your body was lifted and hugged by arms you have always wished that would hold you.
You gathered your energy to open your eyes, probably for the last time. You were glad you had the strength to do so since you got to see Dazai once again. Though he wasn't smiling, his face was wet because of the tears running down his cheeks. Seeing him crying, you felt like crying too.
You didn't want to die, it was far too early. You had so much that you wanted to do, and now every dream of yours, every thought you had was taken from you. To be aware of the fact that you were never going to be able to do any of these, to know you were never going to make up for your mistakes, never get married, and maybe even have children hurt more than the wound that caused all of this.
And although you didn't have time for anything you wanted to do, there was one exception. There was one thing you could do, and it would be worth everything else.
"I have to tell you something." Your voice was more of a whisper, and you didn't think he had heard you. But he had. "Don't-" he said, unable to hold his tears. "Don't waste your breath now, you'll tell me when you're all better."
You bit your lip, you felt dizzy and knew it was... Close.
"Listen to me." You said, a little stronger this time. Was it selfish what you were doing? Telling him this now, right before you closed your eyes forever, wasn't it selfish? But you had to tell him, selfish or not, you couldn't hold it in. "Dazai-" you said, trying to hold yourself together, "I- I love you."
He hadn't said anything. You couldn't see it then, but it was because he was crying so hard, he was unable to speak. Your body was numb, and you couldn't feel his shoulders shaking. "I'm sorry it had to end like this."
He shook his head side to side, denying to acknowledge that you were slipping to unconsciousness, and he could do nothing to prevent it. "Where is Yosano?!" He screamed at Kunikida, who was watching you from a few meters away. He couldn't gather the courage to see you die.
"She's on her way, she's going to be here in a few minutes." But Kunikida wasn't sure if you even had a few minutes left, and the look he sent to Dazai told that to him too. To this, Dazai inhaled a sharp breath, one filled with worry. He knew if he was going to tell you his true feelings, this could be the last time. And he was tired, tired of acting around you, as he did with everyone else. You were so special to him and he just wanted to be himself around you. Now he didn't know if he was even going to see you again.
His tears slid down his cheek, a single drop touched your now pale face. "I love you too." He said finally, to that you smiled. "I love you- I love you so much. And I... I need you to stay alive, please (Y/N)! I need you to stay with me- as long as we'd like. I can't lose you, I can't lose you to death, to something I have wanted for so long but now... All I want is you."
He went on rambling, not even noticing your eyes were closed and that you were no longer conscious.
~~~
Dazai couldn't remember what happened that night, after his confession. He had only flashbacks of that night, Dazai remembered Kunikida ripping your then oddly heavy body away from his arms, yelling, trying to get you back. From him, from death.
He remembers sitting on the red-stained ground, sobbing, crying as he had never done before.
He remembers Kunikida, who was secretly crying too, trying to lift him to his legs, but Dazai didn't have the strength to stand up.
And now he was sitting at the office, his head buried in his hands, a deadly headache making him groan in pain. Atsumi had tried to approach him, asking him if he was okay, but it took one look from Dazai to send him back to where he was sitting. No one dared to draw closer to him, not when he was in this situation.
His bandages were soaked in blood, your blood, and he couldn't find it in himself to renew them. All he could do was to lift his head when he heard a door open, and every time it was someone else at the door, his body slumped back on the seat he was sitting, feeling even more hopeless.
It wasn't supposed to take this long, he knew how Yosano worked, and it never lasted this much.
So when she opened the door to her infirmary, covered in blood, he thought his heart was going to stop beating. The tired look on her face didn't tell him much either.
"She is sleeping." She said finally. "But she will be okay."
These words felt like heaven to him, and to everyone else that was in the buro. "She- she is alive?" Dazai finally broke the silence, and she shot him an annoyed look. "I just told you she is-" But before she even finished her sentence, a thump came from Dazai's direction, and for the first time in their lives, the armed detective agency witnessed Dazai passing out.
~~~
You slept for almost a week, though it felt like years to Dazai.
He was playing with his bandages when Kunikida entered the room in search of him. When Dazai looked at him with his now almost dead-looking brown eyes, Kunikida shuddered. "She's awake."
These words brought the light back in his eyes in almost an instant. Dazai stood up on his legs and practically ran out of the room.
He had not once gathered the courage to enter your room. He just couldn't bear the thought of seeing you in those covers would be the last time he would see you, and Dazai couldn't afford to have that sight of you to be the very last memory he had of you.
He loved you, but before that, you were his best friend. You were the person he would come to when he didn't feel good, the person he could just sit next to, not needing to say anything.
And embraced with the memories of you, he opened the door.
You were practically lost between the sheets, looked so small and so fragile, his heart ached with the sight.
When your eyes found him, a smile formed on your face. Dazai didn't know what to say, and it seemed like you didn't either. So after a few awkward seconds, you finally said, "I heard you fainted."
He was so tense that he couldn't hold back the laughter that bubbled up inside him. He tried to suppress it, but he couldn't hold it even for a second as his laughter ringed inside the room.
To that, you started to laugh too. It started as a giggle but turned into laughter in merely seconds. When your laughs both finally died, an awkward feeling took over the room. You were both thinking about the same thing, and it just felt odd.
"Did you mean it?" You finally gathered your courage and asked. His chocolate brown eyes found yours, and for the first time, you could see his feelings in his eyes, you could understand what he was thinking.
You felt a warm sensation in your chest, making you all fuzzy and giddy. "I did mean it. Every single word." He didn't say it, but you knew he was asking you the same thing. "Me too." You answered his silent question, and he smiled. It was a sincere, beautiful smile.

Ateez reaction to you dying your hair the same shade as theirs.
Seonghwa - It was finally his turn to have blue hair. It was a beautiful shade of royal blue and he couldn’t be happier as he climbed out of the stylists chair. He showed off his new hair as soon as he picked you up for dinner that night. You had to admit that it suited him really well. The next day while he was getting ready for filming the new music video and the adjacent photoshoot for the album, you went to the salon you frequented for your regular trim and for a special styling.
You had been allowed on set before and decided you would surprise him during one of the breaks in filming. When he saw you standing next to the director a pleased smirk formed on his face. Your hair now matched his and now the two of you would look every bit the matching couple you two loved to be.
Hongjoong - He had idolized fellow idol rapper G-Dragon for years so now that he was given the same iconic neon yellow hair color, he was hyped up even more the this comeback. This was going to be amazing. You were instantly jealous. You had never been brave enough to color your hair anything other than a shade of brown and that hair color really was striking. In a stroke of courage you booked it to the salon.
When you showed up to the studio he was working on music in that evening with take out in hand he smiled as warmly as his heart felt. You wanted to match him and were brave enough to finally do so. He melted. Now, not only did he get to have the iconic color of his favorite idol, but you did too. Everything he loved most was lining up and this sweet leader couldn’t have been happier.
Yunho  - Despite his height and his intense level of dancing, he rather enjoyed having a softer look. So the pastel pink his stylist colored his hair was perfect. Usually only the smaller more feminine male idols got to have soft pink hair. He was living his best life. Boys should be allowed to like pink and every other color that exists.
You also enjoyed the softer look on him as well as yourself. It would be so cute if you and him matched and was the softest looking pair to ever exist so you went for it. When you meet him at the gym for your daily workout in your matching workout gear, your hair also matched. The blush that covered his face was a deeper pink than his hair. You were just too cute and he couldn’t handle it. His squeal brought everyone’s eyes on you and how he squished your cheeks turned them pink as well.
Yeosang - Matching had never been your intention. You both colored your hair frequently so it was only a matter of time before the stars alined and you matched. Matching the shade of this color though is what had both of your jaws on the floor when he got home. He loved it though. It matched the sassy fire he loved about you. Cherry red suited and made you look larger than life and he was so here for this.
“All the gods and goddesses in all the world’s folklore combined couldn’t out do you. Hot damn.”
If he brought you along to the set for filming with the sole intention of showing you off, he was never going to admit it.
San - He has had nearly every color of the rainbow but his favorite. He didn’t care the shade, it just needed to be purple. So when he found out his hair was going to finally be that color, and a beautiful shade of Orchid purple at that, he had the dopiest smile on his face the entire day before going to the salon KQ worked with. With the advanced notice, you managed to book an appointment at your regular salon right after lunch the next day. San didn’t stand a chance when you walked into the dance studio at the end of practice if the nose bleed was an indication. This was now his favorite look on you as you absolutely slayed with your hair his favorite color.

“Why in all that is good on this earth, have you never done this with your hair before,” he asked in complete awe.
Mingi - His hair had been a muddy orange before, but this was vibrant! It wasn't neon but if you looked at him from behind you would think that he had an oversized orange for a hat it was that orange. Every time he changed his hair color he was like this; talking animatedly about how much fun his current color was and that you should think about dying your hair some time. It’s not like your job was against it. You always said you would think about it.
Last thing he expected was for you to actually go through with it this time. You showed up to the dance studio one evening, a few days before the actual comeback to bring him and the boys dinner. It was like new life was breathed into him and he was a bouncing ball of joy and happiness cause you finally did it! Your hair matched! His goofy smile didn’t leave his face for a week.
Wooyoung - Honestly, he feels like a badass. The forest green color of his new hair accented his skin tone and made his eyes look extra sharp. His already high confidence was through the roof and he wouldn’t shut up about it the entire time that you were on a video call with him. You were meeting up with him after your flight home the next day so you had to act fast. You love teasing him as he tends to be a big bully when he is feeling himself. So the look on his face when you opened the door to the van he was in to pick you up was priceless. Green had always been your color.
“Excuse me, but what is that?”
“My new hair silly. Don’t you like it?”
He sulked the whole ride home causing you to smile more.
“How dare you pull off this hair color better than me?”
Jongho - His hair was a shade of dirty Blonde. He chewed on his bottom lip as this was an entirely new look for him. Sure he had highlights, but never his whole head of hair. You assured him that he looked good as a blonde. After his lunch break ended you decided that he probably just needed to feel supported and you had the perfect idea to show your support. By time his day ended you were waiting out front of the KQ building with newly blonde locks of your own.
“You just looked so good blonde I had to copy you.”
A soft smile appeared on his face. You matched! “Thank you,” he responds quietly. “It means so much to me that I have you on my team.”

— Guardian - YandereGuardian Angel! Jungkook
Tumblr media
His mission on earth was to protect you in the purest way, but how did mere protection turn in dangerous obsession?
Word Count 3.7k
Warning - Yandere! Themes, Murder, attempted murder, and all around possessiveness, and obsession. ALSO I WANT TO DO A YANDERE SERIES WITH ALL THE BOYS, LIKE JUNGKOOK IS A GUARDIAN ANGEL WHAT SHOULD THE OTHER BOYS BE?
BTS - NCT - ATEEZ - Requests open for all groups!
__________________________________________
The guardian angel had one very specific job when he came down to earth. Simply protect his human from harm, but in the most humane way possible. That means no extreme measures should be took, the main priority should be to get the human out of the situation, without harm coming to anyone involved. He followed that rule throughly, well to be more clear, he followed it throughly when he was first starting out. Making sure the precious mortal was fine after a scrap was skidded across their knees to a small mishap in the kitchen that lead to a burnt palm. Everything he done was innocent, no ill intentions were behind any of his doings. In fact when he was first starting out he made sure things were handled in a graceful way. After all that was the main rule he had to follow.
He’d be the little angel on your shoulder that was whispering how the situation should be handled. The thought of violence occurring, around him truly terrified him to the core. Being one of the younger angels, he hasn’t had time to properly live out his immortal life. All he’s ever seen is peaceful, and happy people up in the heaven above, violence was a whole new ball park for him. So he made sure that it was avoided at all cost. This strategy was effective for the most part, but he used this when he first got to earth. When he didn’t know you as well as he does now. And not knowing you well enough played a much bigger role in his personality then you thought.
When he first started watching over you, distance was a big thing he cared about. Making sure he’s not your second shadow, making sure he’s not clinging onto you after every step. He didn’t want to be suffocating like some of the other angels he’s seen, because he’s seen their humans completely turn against them for that reason. But he didn’t want that to happen to you, he couldn’t exactly pinpoint the reason within him, but the thought of you turning against him made him ill. It made his stomach fill with dread, it made his palms grow sweaty every second, it made his mind race with other possibilities of you getting hurt or worse on his watch. For the sake of keeping you on his side he kept his distance, for as long as he deemed necessary.
But as time went on, many things around you started to change. Your college professors were piling work load upon work load onto you every night, the same retail job you were working at is almost close to bankruptcy, and you’re not getting a lot of sleep. Put all of those things together and you get a person who is stressed and not all there. This was the first time he felt his platonic feelings morph into something else. Something more along the lines of protection, and worry, but with a sinister twist added into the mix. But like the responsible angel he is, he kept those feelings inside. Letting the bottle up for as long as he could.
As you know keeping things bottled inside is never the right way to go. Letting all of these feelings mush and mold into one another to the point that you’re filled up with extreme amounts of anger and insecurities it takes things to a whole other level. The final straw for him was seeing you walk through the door with puffy eyes,soaked clothes, and your hair matted to your forehead. He could feel the feathers on his wings tense up, and his hands immediately clutched themselves into tight fists. Without missing a beat he made himself noticeable, and wrapped his arms around your waist, and his wings soon followed suit as they tucked themselves around your shaking body.
“I can’t believe I let you talk me into staying at the house today. Are you hurt, do you need me to heal anything? Do you wanna tell me who did this?” He mumbled frantically into your hair, as he guided you to the bedroom. If he didn’t get you out of these wet and dirty clothes and into a warm shower soon, you’d probably catch a cold. And he wasn’t going to have his baby sick, not when he can prevent it.
“It was just a bad day a work, besides...” You stopped a little ways into your sentence to wiped the muddy hair from your forehead. The scene replaying itself on a loop inside of your head, and you hated it. It made a feeling of helpless coat your body like a wet blanket, and it was starting to become suffocating in a terrible way. Their faces were etched into your brain as they purposely served right into the puddle beside of you. They were familiar, but those girls were honestly just the typically drunk, mean girls looking for a cheap laugh and you despised them for it.
“Besides what, Y/n?” Jungkook sternly spoke as he raised an eyebrow at you. Why were you stopping in the middle of sentence when there was clearly a problem at hand, most importantly why were you trying to keep secrets from the one that is destined to protect you? He didn’t move from his stance as his gaze bored into the side of your head. All he wanted was answers, and he was going to get them one way or another. Violence may have been a taboo thing to him earlier on in his training, but now he doesn’t have a problem with creating chaos around those who dare harm you. “I’m not gonna give this up, y/n, and you know that. You can either tell me what I want to know or I’ll tap into your memories myself.”
The feeling of helplessness long gone, as you clicked your tongue in an annoyed manner. Trying not to pay him any mind, you scampered around the room trying to find suitable clothes for the night. What kind of entitled prick does he think he is, trying to scare you by saying he’ll tap into your memories himself. It was a mistake that a few drunk girls made, but even so, you still worried about what he might do to them. A small puddle of water never killed anybody, besides the pure angel you once knew has changed his way of dealing with things, and you didn’t like it. Letting him tap into any memories would result is mass hysteria.
He stared it utter disbelief, you were never disobedient when he asked things like that. You never scoffed or turned your head in any matter, and the small action seemed to anger him even more then your current state. After everything that’s happened today, from your crying fit to being covered in muddy water, and you still won’t let him help. Why were protecting people who caused you harm, unless you held a much deeper relationship with them. But you’d tell him if you were, you always told him if someone new in comes into your life, but he never tells you how he makes sure their life becomes a living hell the moment he sees them. No matter how deranged and psychotic it sounded, he needed you to say yes to letting him float through your memories! After all he’s just doing this to protect you, but who do you really need protection from. Everyone else or do you need protection from him?
You had to get away from the crazed look in his eyes, it was driving you insane. He, himself, was driving you insane, and you didn’t know how much longer you could take it. No one deserved to have their life controlled by someone who other people can’t see, it makes you look like a crazy person when you’re talking to yourself in the middle of class. The steaming water was a distraction for the harsh, coldness that was starting to exude from Jungkook. It was disturbing to say the least, and you just needed five mere minutes away from that chaos that was supposed to be your pure guardian angel.
“I’m truly sorry, y/n, I really am.” No he wasn’t, but you didn’t need to know that. He just needed you to think that he was sorry for his outburst, that he was sorry about being so overprotective. Because he needed you to let all of your guard down, that way tapping into those pesky memories would be an even easier job. His ear was pressed against the bathroom silently praying he’d hear the lock make it signature click, and you’d walk out with a sad smile plastered to your face. But when he didn’t hear that click, or the soft patter of your feet hitting the wooden floor he knew this was going to take a lot more work. “I’ll leave you be.”
He knew that his original plan was down to the drain, so now all he as to do is wait till you’re sound asleep. Because whoever made your day bad, will pay. He’ll make them burn like the raging fires in hell for what they did, and he couldn’t stop thinking about it. Thinking about how amazing their mangled bodies would look like strung up in horrific accidents. But most importantly he couldn’t stop thinking about how happy and appreciative you’d be, once you found out what he had done for you! All your praises and glory would be bestowed upon him, and he couldn’t wait. If he wanted any of his dreams to come true he had to wait till you were finally sleeping peacefully.
“Just please leave me alone for tonight, and don’t you dare tap into my memories.” You warned as you shoved past him. Making a b - line for soft comforter that sat messily on your bed, and tucking yourself in. Jungkook watched with admiration written in his eyes, as he marveled at how you could make a simple task look so delicate and beautiful. But you were someone he’s grown to love, through his eyes everything you did was simply elegant and lovely. He had to make sure you stayed that way, and if getting rid of these people would preserve that then he’d do anything.
He watched and waited for hours until he knew for a fact that you were in a deep sleep. Taking two fingers he pressed them to your temple, as he felt your memories connect with his. All the pain you had felt throughout the day overtaking his body in quick, repeated pulses. They attacked every nerve that was available, they flooded his mind like a tsunami, taking his entire body hostage. At first all he felt was the pain, and sadness you had gone through, but the picture was starting to become much clearer. From the rude customers at the drive through, to the supposedly drunk girls that rain into a puddle and drenched you from head to toe. But he could tell from their evil eyes that they meant to swerve into that puddle. Simply by doing that he now knows that this means war.
When he finally saw them, he knew their punishment couldn’t be gentle. It couldn’t be over within the snap of a finger, he needed the pain to linger in their bones so they get the full experience. He wants them to feel the same amount of pain you felt, but he wants it amplified by one - hundred percent. Because at the end of the day they deserved this! If they wanted to deal our immense pain, then surely they’re strong enough to handle it when it’s forced back on them, right? But judging by the way the girl was clutching and clawing at her throat in agony, and gasping to get an ounce of fresh air in her lungs, in this case she couldn’t handle the pain. And he was soaking in the glory as he watched her fumbled around on the floor, dragging her nails into the carpet in an attempt to get to her phone, that was merely a few inches away.
Jungkook released the mental hold on her, and then proceeded to step lightly on her hand, making sure that only a small percentage of weight was being put on. First, it was the back of his heel, and soon the tip of his foot was touching the tips of her fingers. At this moment he wanted to hear her scream for mercy so loudly that her throat bled, like it was being cut by shards of class, but sadly he couldn’t have that. The more people that witness this mass hysteria, the more people he’ll have to get rid of. And you may not forgive him if he hurts people that weren’t involved in the original problem. While resting his body on her weak hand, he kneeled down to make eye contact, he wanted her to see the face of her killer.
“Why are you...” The poor girl couldn’t hold eye contact, as her head was growing too heavy for her neck to support. Soon, all of the pain was starting to take over her whole body. She felt herself slipping away into unconsciousness. But the angel was still feeling playful, and he was going to keep playing with his prey until he was completely satisfied with his revenge.
“You really wanna know why I’m doing this? Because you hurt her, you hurt someone who I care deeply about. Now they’re too nice to want revenge on a pathetic mortal like yourself, but I don’t give two shits who you are. Because at the end of the day no one hurts the one I love.” He didn’t notice,but she sure did. She notice how his once clear eyes were fading into a black hole of nothing less. His halo floating above his head, was starting to tilt, as if it was close to the brim of falling off. And everyone knows once an angel looses it halo, horns start to grow in its place.
_________________________________________
For the next couple of weeks, he was giddy. His giggle was toned up an octave higher, his touch was lingering a bit longer then usual, and to no one’s surprise he started showing more of signs of obsession. You on the other hand, were complete different. Your feelings were on opposite sides of the spectrum, fear soared through every inch in your body, you plastered the biggest smile on your face, praying that he would buy it. All of seemed fabricated, because you truly didn’t want to believe that he had killed her. A funny joke to someone, costed them their life. Now you were scared to even glance at someone for too long, thinking that a Jungkook might see them as threat.
“Hey, Y/n, are you feeling alright?” Jisung tilted his head, as he started to rub comforting circles on your back. The small action taking you out of your trance like state, and putting you back into reality. A place you’d much rather be without. His eyebrow was raised in suspicion when you noticed your gaze stayed connected to his shoes. To lighten the mood, he jokingly asked, “Come on I know they’re dirty, but do you really have to stare?”
You eyes averted back up to his within a second, guilt coating your face. The thought of accidentally offending him, make you heart clench in guilt. He was the one person who surprisingly stayed, throughout all the controversy that was starting to bubble up around you. “Han! I didn’t mean it like that, I’m just having an off day.”
His arm glided over your shoulders, it felt so nice and natural. It felt safe, and this wasn’t something you felt a whole lot. And you wanted to cherish every moment of it, but a nagging voice in head was scolding you. Forcing you to think about the obsessive angel that was watching your every move. You subtly tried to pull your body away from Jisung, but you didn’t want to be disrespectful. You needed to catch the bus back to your apartment in a decent time.
“Hey, before you go I was wondering, do you wanna grab a bite to eat? I’ll pay.” Jisung smile brightly, as his cheeks puffed out ever so slightly. The small action making you grin, you always loved his full cheeks. Even thought he complains about them half the time, you think they make him cuter. He noticed you hesitation, and immediately started to cower away. “I just realized, you probably don’t like me like that. So I’ll be on my way.”
You body reacted before your mind could even process what was exactly happening. A small tug delivered to his left hand, made his entire body holt. A hopeful smile taking over his cheeks, as you laced you fingers with his. You really should have listened to the angel on your shoulder, but you liked Jisung. That’s why the next words that came out of your mouth gave him hope. “A quick bit never hurt anyone. So, where should we go?”
It physically felt like a spark of joy shot through his eyes at your statement. The coolness of the rings, on his hand, when they collided with yours felt serene. You’ve been surrounded by smothering hot, hatred and obsessiveness for too long. And this was finally the break you needed, this was finally the break you deserved. When his fingered laced with yours, you truly felt at home.
“There’s this quiet little diner, on WellRose drive. It’s maybe a ten minute walk. Is that okay?” Jisung asked with a soft tone. Stroking the back of your hand with his thumb, as he gently swayed your arm.
“It’s perfect.” You smiled as you felt yourself grip his hand a little tighter. Almost as if to make sure this wasn’t a dream, to make sure this wasn’t an illusion Jungkook had made to test your loyalty. As if right now you could truly breath for a second, and not worry about the guardian angel.
While you were were out living the best life you can live, as well as living it up with another boy, Jungkook was a mess. His breath was becoming ragged, his palms were growing sweaty, his heart was pounding so hard in his chest, he was afraid his entire chest would burst wide open. The clock said a quarter past four, and usually you’re home at exactly four o’clock. Questions were racing through his mind, did someone hurt you, did the bus crash, did you forget about him? He should his head rapidly, disappointment filling his body at the thought of that, of course you didn’t forget about him, you love him! Thinking quickly on his feet he raced towards your bedroom, he can make the angel and mortal bond stronger by having a personal item. A small chain necklace, with a beautiful red butterfly pendent was definitely a personal item.
He clutched that pendent like his life depended on, and right now it does. Without you he has no one to protect, without you he has no one to love, without he has no purpose! Finding you now is his main mission, and he needs to be successful. A quick vision flashed through his eyes of you sitting quietly in a diner booth, hands delicately holding up a tattered menu. He felt his heart slow down, you simply getting something to eat and he absolutely couldn’t be mad at you over that. But as the vision went on, he noticed the brown haired boy sitting across from you. And he knew he could raise hell over that. Within a minute he had teleported from your bedroom to the back door of the small diner.
He could see in through the windows, and noticed just how cozy the two do you were getting. The small hand touches across the table, to the lingering gazed this stupid boy was giving you. All of it was making his blood boil, and his vision was going straight to red. A quick shuffle made him force his wings to tuck themselves together, making it appear as if he had none. All of the scenarios in his heads were brutal and graphic, as he pictured multiple ways that this boy could suffer. And as a cruel joke, or punishment, he was going to make you watch every single second of it. But for now he needed to wait to make his move. Right as the boy was excusing himself, he quickly dashed towards the front door, and he was almost hurt when you didn’t glance up to see who it was.
Your eyes stayed glued to the menu, as you softly spoke about you day. The sound of your voice was like heaven in his ears, he could listen to you talking all day. But right now he needed you home. He took your hand, and found amusement in your terrified expression as you tried to jerk your hand away as well. “Now listen my love, I don’t want to sound rushed, but we don’t have a lot of time. You have two options, leave with me now and no one will get hurt, and I’ll dismiss this whole acting out thing, this time. But if you choose to stay I’ll reek absolute havoc on this diner, and your precious little boyfriend.”
“Jungkook! This is outrageous! You’re a guardian angel, you’re supposed to provide peace, not threaten people with danger.” You sputtered frantically, and your eyes darted towards the bathroom.
“Doesn’t matter, Tic,Tok my love, your window of time is getting quite small. And I just want you to keep in mind I was brutal with that girl, imagine how brutal I’ll be with someone who’s trying to take you away.”
The freeing, coolness you felt with Jisung is now gone for good, and is replaced with the familiar smothering, and sweltering heat of Jungkook’s obsession. You gripped his heavy hand across the table, and forcibly pulled his body out of the booth.
“I knew my baby loved me more! But keep in mind I still have to get rid of the competition.”

Candy House
Facing against Candymaster, Ash realizes he’s bit more than he can chew, and ends up joining forces with a ranger at the last minute.  Spoilers for Fallen hero. 
Trigger warning: Addictions. 
“So young and yummy.” He snorted. “Shouldn’t you be at school instead of taking candy from strangers?”
“I’m going to get more than candy” You mirror his smile, the power gloves crackling with energy  
“Oooh, I definitely think you’re my type now! Let’s dance, shall we?”
“But of course” you let out, lunging forward.
He responds by raising his arms. 
Which does nothing.
He seems very sure that he’ll be ok, but you’re not going to question stupidity right now, so you do what you came to do. Hit hard, hit fast, the moment you’re close enough. 
The gloves crackle with energy, causing an explosion of… 
Shards? 
You look down, and only his feet remain standing, cracked at the base, the rest of his body seems to have exploded in a thousand pieces. 
That’s when you notice the entire warehouse is covered in white dust… white… sugar?
And he’s still there. You can feel his mind laughing.
You can hear him laughing! 
“My turn!” 
The ground starts shaking, and you can sense incoming attacks from every direction. 
Sharp-colored crystals begin sprouting at an alarming speed, breaking in through the floor itself. Very sharp crystals. 
“Where are you?!” you let out.
“Everywhere” the answer is loud and maniacal, confirming your worse fears.
A large crystal stalagmite surges… trembles.. And breaks apart, revealing the Candymaster, unharmed and fully reformed, grinning with the whitest of smiles, his arms reshaping into pointy crystal blades.
Sucrose manipulation. You’ve seen it, but never to this extent.
And he’s made of the stuff himself?! You’ve seriously miscalculated here. “I’ll break you as many times as I need to!” you challenge, running forward, evading his swipes, before crushing him once more to pieces.
“Rude. But I’m going to be your sugar daddy either way by the end of this.” 
More crystals form out of thin air, from the ceiling this time, and soon you’re evading a complete storm of falling shards, aimed your way. 
“Nice sidesteps. I wonder how long can you keep this up”
“As long as I have to…” you curse as a shard explodes against your leg, giving you a hard bruise. You manage to keep your balance, but the cheap armor on your discount suit isn’t going to help much. 
He reforms before your eyes once more, walking slowly in your direction. Toying with you. “I’m not afraid of you, sidesteps. As I said, I was expecting you”
“How did you know…?”
“Oh, you’ve been just too cute standing there pretending to be clueless. Red Spectre, Clobberer Queen, Lord Ember, you visited them all in one night? It’s almost like you know all of my friends.”
“Losers you mean”
He snorts at that “You’re funny. Now tell me, while we’re talking about losers… did Owl send you? Is she really that desperate”
“Fuck Owl” You distract, not willing to follow his game. “I came to bring you in myself”
“Loyal huh? Heroes can be annoying. But you’re going to give me a straight answer!” 
He pushes forward, sending a wave of shards at your face. You block with the gloves, as best you can, but when it’s over you can see they are cracking with broken circuits, several shards stuck to them.   
“Aww did I break your toy?” he circles around you. 
“I don’t need it to break your face!” you challenge him, discarding the broken power gloves.
“Well let’s see about that” he charges, arms made into razors again. 
You let him down with a roundhouse kick, shattering his face as promised, but that doesn’t stop the rest of the body from swinging at you. You dodge left, then right, stepping back…. only to find another Candymaster.
Fuck. 
“As long as I have sugar, I can be anywhere, sidesteps” he laughs. “You’ll never get rid of me with silly dance moves”
You keep fighting, cracking one of the arms of the newcomer while evading the last one… but a third and a fourth are coming your way. 
It doesn’t take long for you to take the wrong step, and they take hold of your arms, holding you down. 
You curse and kick but it’s useless, and they drag you towards the far end of the warehouse. 
They hold you against a wall, crystal begins growing over your legs and arms, immobilizing them.
You’re stuck. 
“Now you’re you’re going to tell me everything you know about Owl”
“I’m not telling you shit!”
“Believe me you will talk,” one of them says bringing up a large box and placing it at your feet.
“Is that supposed to scare me, clown?” you say, staring down at it. 
“Nah. You’re going to love it… This makes even people like you into obedient good puppies, let  me show you” two of them open the lid, taking out a small bottle… placing a couple of pills in his hand…
You freeze, staring at them.
It can’t be…
“Open wide!” 
You struggle as hard as you can, but they pinch your nose, they punch you… until they can force you to open your mouth… and swallow them.
White supplement. 
“Alright now. I will start asking questions and you will answer each one” 
His voice keeps talking falling into the background, and you can hear yourself answering, but the words aren’t yours. It’s someone else.
The rest is a blank.
--------------------------------------------- “FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE!!” Ashley’s words are still ringing in your ears. Only that she’s not here.
She died. Why do you still hear her? Why do you still...(...) 
“Wow, good job, kid that was surreal!” 
You’re lying down, on a very wet floor, water raining down from the ceiling. A hand on your shoulder, trying to help you sit up.
“Are you ok?”
You focus on the face of the person speaking to you… wearing a mask!
You almost jump, stumbling back, falling down on your ass onto the water again. 
“I guess that’s a no.”
They give a few slow steps your way, palms extended. They mean no harm (or is that what they want you to think?)
“Hey hey. It’s ok. We won” 
“Who are you?” you ask before he gets any closer.
“Aww, you forgot me already? I’m Anathema. Tried to talk to you the other day, and you ran away?”
It takes a few seconds for it to click that you actually do remember this one. 
“The ranger”
“There you go. That’s me!” 
They are completely colorless, even as more details begin to come back. 
You pain gate. It’s active, at its highest setting. You stare at your hands… completely numb and bloodied. You can feel sore fingers and knuckles, even through the gate, and your legs are like two wooden logs. You’ve taken a hell of a beating.
“What… happened?” 
“You’re having a moment huh? We beat the crap out of Candymaster, that’s what happened.”
“Ah” you stand up, finally accepting his hand.
“There you go. Must say, turning on the fire sprinklers was a genius move, washed out all that sugar on the floor and ruined his day” “Right. What’s that?” you ask looking at a gooey puddle of blackish ooze.
“Well, Sugar and Acid don’t mix. The rest of him ran away after that… you seriously don’t remember?”
“Maybe I’m having a moment like you said” you reply following him.
“I think you might have been drugged,” they say looking down at the box, holding one of the bottles full of white supplement pills resting in packing peanuts before tossing it back in “That might explain it. That shit is strong...”
You say nothing, looking down. 
A box full of white supplement...
Your hands are hurt but steady now.
“You were amazing. Candymaster had you down, interrogating you, so I got the jump on him, released you, and you looked a bit lost at first. But when I told you to fight and you turned into a total beast, you were breaking off those sugar creeps with your bare hands. It’s almost as if… hey don’t touch that! It’s evidence!” they interrupt themselves.
“Touch what?” you ask, pathetically. 
“The box! Leave it back on the floor!” 
You order your hands to put it down as they say, but that’s not what seems to be happening at all. 
“I’m just…” You step back “... I need…”
“Leave it right there! Don’t make me… shit!!!”
You’re sprinting, and they are chasing you, and the box is really heavy but you don’t care. 
You need it. You need the white supplement so you won’t feel like shit all the time. You can’t go back, but with this, you won’t need to. 
You almost make it in range of a low building, drawing the grappling hook, only to have it fly off your hand, half-melted, covered in acid. Shit.
You turn and notice Anathema jumping at you just in time to sidestep, letting them hits a traffic light instead. You don’t stop running, they can’t catch you if you don’t stop. You’re too focused on evading him to notice the car coming at you tough. 
It wasn’t a very strong bump, and you barely felt it with your pain gate active, but you were running fast enough to be projected a few feet away as the driver hits the brakes, hitting the pavement hard. Another thing you don’t feel.
“Oh, shit are you ok? Get off the street!” Anathema runs, stopping traffic.
The box.
The box is right in front of you… you just need to stand up and...
And an enormous Geni-Tech truck runs it over, squishing all of its contents and sending pieces of wood, pills, and packing peanuts all over. 
“NO!” you lunge forward, trying to get as many pills as you can, but it’s too late. Anathema pulls you, holding you back. “NO NO NO, LET ME GO, YOU IDIOT! I NEED THOSE! I NEED THEM” 
You hit them hard with your hurt hands, but it’s no use, they don’t even budge. “I think you had enough of those,” they say extending a hand towards the white supplement stain…
“NO! DON’T DO THAT! YOU DON’T GET IT, I REALLY NEED THOSE, PLEASE DON’T…” 
But they don’t listen, sending a small blob of acid at the stain, turning it all into a muddy black substance, the pills dissolving forever. 
“Nonononononono…” you can’t stop yourself, hitting him as hard as you can, completely out of it while they pull you off the street. 
“Believe me, you’ll be better off in the long run.”
Your gaze is fixed on the muddy substance, cars running over it, washing it down the drain. 
You’re doomed.

The Love Letter
Alright. This is my submission for @heli0s-writes‘ 2k challenge. Congratulations, babe! you deserve all the love! 
Prompt: Dum Spiro Spero (While I breathe, I hope.)
This was probably the easiest thing I’ve ever written. 
Pairing: Bucky X Reader
Word Count: 1384
Warnings: general sadness? swearing but surprisingly not a lot.
Summary: Bucky’s just gotten back from his time in the POW camp and a couple missions with Steve. He’s starting to wonder what he’s still doing there, instead of being home with you.
Tumblr media
Bucky’s bones ache. Everything hurts. His head is pounding, his teeth ache in their sockets, Christ, his fucking eyes hurt. 
The camp is loud as he makes his way from the mess hall tent towards his makeshift bunk. He just finished eating with Steve, new Steve, not the short, scrawny and sickly punk he’s known his whole life. No, this Steve could probably kick his ass, too, while fending off three other guys. 
 Idiot.
 But in a way, he’s glad. He’s glad Steve is healthy and strong now, he won’t have to spend so much time worrying about him. But he’s not happy he’s over here in the middle of this shit. 
 No, he never wanted that for his best friend. 
 He pauses along the muddy path, stepping out of the way of the foot traffic as he pushes an unlit cigarette between his chapped lips. 
 Fuck, he wants to go home. Wants to see his girl, hold you in his arms and dance in your living room, holding you close. He misses the way he can feel your heartbeat against his chest when he does. Your light breath on his neck, your sweet voice when you tell him how much you love him. 
 His arms still remember the way you feel, the exact shape you take when you’re pressed against him. He could do it now, encase the empty space, and if by some miracle you showed up, you’d fit perfectly in it. 
 He sniffles slightly as he raises the lighter to the end of the cigarette, and with shaking hands, lights it. He takes that first drag, the taste burning his tongue, you’d hate that he’s smoking. Always telling him that it’s gonna kill him someday. 
 If the war doesn’t do that first.
 He makes a silent promise to you, that when he gets home, when he survives this, he’ll quit just for you.
 “Hey, Sarge!” One of the ladies shouts from across the path. He looks up, squinting slightly to make out a face in the dim tent. Heather, she’s been flirting with him since day one. Just something to pass the time, honey. Not much else to do ‘round here, except make handsome men blush. 
 She waves him over and he nods reluctantly. He just wants to go lay down, relax his bones before Steve comes up with some terrible idea, again.
 He waits for a break before stepping across the muddy road, the squelching of his boots in the mud making his hair stand on end. He hates it. Misses New York, misses concrete and solidness under his feet, misses the smell of the city, dirty and oppressive. 
 There’s too much clean air out here, marred by blood and gun powder. He’d never be able to enjoy the countryside, not after this.
 “Hey, Sarge. Glad you made it back.” She says as he ducks under the tent flap. 
 “Me, too.” He sighs, rubbing the back of his neck. “Did ya need me for somethin’, doll?”
 “Always in a rush, you men. Can’t even take time to enjoy the pretty scenery.” She admonishes with a smile.
 “Darlin’, you have men droppin’ by here all day long to flirt with ya. You don’t need a putz like me to tell ya how pretty you are.” He rolls his eyes good-naturedly. 
 “Maybe they’re not the right men, Barnes.” She turns and rummages through a stack of envelopes. “Somethin’ came for ya while you were... away. It’s due to get shipped back, but since you’re here now, I figure you should have it.” She turns around, holding up a square envelope with elegant scrawl on it.
 Bucky’s heart skips a beat as he realizes it’s from you. “Thanks, Heather.” He says, reaching for it.
 “She’s a lucky gal.” She says softly. 
 “Not so sure about that. Think you got it the wrong way ‘round.” 
 She places the envelope in his hand and he takes it and her fingers, lifting her hand to his mouth. “Thanks for always bein’ so kind.” He says before letting her go and turning from the tent. 
 He walks quicker now, more determined to reach his destination. He stubs out the lit end of his forgotten smoke and settles on his cot. His heart is pounding as he looks over every inch of the paper. 
 It smells like you. His eyes water a little as the ache in his chest is both soothed by your perfume and made worse by the distance. He holds the paper to his nose and inhaled deeply, your perfect face conjured behind his eyelids. 
 The muck, the pain, the loud conversations and noisy jeeps all fade away. He’s left with his last memory of you, at the train station. You hugged him so tightly he thought a rib would break. You tried desperately and failed miserably not to cry. You kissed him repeatedly, ignoring the curious stares of the people around you because fuck them. He didn’t stop you, in fact, he held you closer. He kissed you like it was the last one you would ever have, fingers curled into the back of your dress. 
 But also a promise. That while he has breath in his body, he has hope that he’ll come back to you. 
 You let out an ugly sob when he told you that, and he couldn’t stop the smile. Stop laughing at me, Bucky. 
 He lets out a sigh and carefully opens the envelope, trying his best not to rip it to shreds. Inside are small strips of paper, dotted with oil stains. Now he realizes why it still smells like you, his clever girl. He leaves the perfume-sprayed papers inside so he doesn’t lose them and opens your letter. 
 Hey, handsome. 
 I never know how to start. Small talk, in light of everything just seems stupid. So, I think I’ll start off with: I miss you. I miss you so much that it hurts deep in my bones. 
 I didn’t know it was possible to miss another human this much, but I feel like you’ve taken half of me with you. 
 I hope you’re doing alright over there. I hear that Europe is beautiful, but I suppose not the parts you’re seeing. I’ve had an awful feeling in the pit of my stomach for weeks and I just know it has something to do with you. 
 I know you can’t tell me where you are or what you’re doing, but if you could just let me know that you’re okay somehow, I would really feel better. 
 My Latin class is growing well. I learned something in honor of you, and I remind myself of it every day that you’re gone. 
 Dum spiro spero. While I breathe, I hope. 
 That’s what you said to me the day you left, and I’ve been thinking about it ever since. I like it and I think it suits us. 
 I won’t keep you much longer. But just know that I love you with my whole heart, James Buchanan Barnes. No matter where you are, no matter what you’re doing, I’m thinking of you and missing you terribly. It might not help, but I’m home, waiting for you. Waiting for you to bring my heart, my other half back to me. 
 Stay safe, my love. 
 Dum spiro spero.
 Forever yours.
 Bucky closes his eyes and presses the letter to his chest. What did he do to deserve such an amazing dame? This is exactly what he needs to help him keep going. A reminder of what he’s fighting for. 
 “Buck, we’re heading out.” Dugan’s voice says from the end of his cot. 
 Bucky groans and cracks an eye open, looking at the big man. “Yeah, alright.” He folds the letter neatly, storing it in the small box with the others in his trunk. His little collection of you to keep with him. 
 He grabs his blue jacket, zipping it up and picks up his sniper rifle. “How many more of these stupid facilities can they possibly have?” He sighs, following Dugan out. He glances back at his trunk, thinking you’re probably right. 
 Dum spiro spero. 
 While he can breathe and fight for his life, he’s going to have hope that he can make it back to you.
