uhhhhh public kisses for dash/danny <3

~ 37. public kisses

(part of the cheerleader Danny AU from this post that lives rent free in mine and @lavendarlily 's heads. also Danny is a flyer sorry I don't make the rules) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------Okay, so maybe he was supposed to be paying attention to the assistant coach outlining the play on his whiteboard, and maybe if he’d been sitting down instead of standing like a stubborn idiot, he wouldn’t have even seen them in the first place, but in his defense, he hadn’t asked the coach to talk to him right next to the cheerleaders, and the cheerleaders were absolutely captivating to watch.

Especially the one with hair a rich, pure black and eyes so blue he could drown in them. 

He adored watching that one.

Dash’s heart fluttered as the squad dropped their poms and hurried into a formation. Two girls standing on either side. Three girls huddled in the middle. One lone cheerleader standing in front of them, facing towards the crowd.

His cheerleader.

Paulina had told him last week she was going to try Danny out as one of the ones to get lifted. He couldn’t remember what they were called. Fly-highers, or something. Regardless of what they were called, Paulina had gushed about how good of one Danny would be. He’d been doing really well with the normal stuff and hoisting other girls up, but after some sort of flipping incident during practice, Paulina had discovered just how light and lithe Danny truly was. Perfect proportions, she’d called it.

(Dash could’ve told her that. He certainly knew Danny’s body well enough.)

Danny hadn’t told him about the change. In all fairness, they hadn’t had a lot of time alone since Paulina’s news, what with their practice schedules and school and whatever else Danny had going on (one of these days, he’d figure out just what on earth was up with that boy’s bladder).

And there was the whole thing about their relationship not being public…

But they could deal with that later. Hopefully.

(He wasn’t really keen on admitting how terrifying the prospect of going public felt.)

Dash had assumed Danny had kept it a secret on purpose. He knew Dash loved to steal glances at the sideline whenever he could, and the little brat knew that if he ended up getting lifted up on display for everyone, Dash would be the first to see. 

Dash couldn’t find it in himself to be irritated. He knew Danny got distracted watching him pull off crazy passes and wild plays enough to more than make up for it.

And now, here at the biggest rivalry game of the season, it seemed it was going to be Danny’s turn to show off.

It was as if time slowed down before Dash’s eyes. He watched Danny’s chest rise and fall in a single deep breath before extending his arms to the sky. Danny launched himself backward, arching his back in a way that stole Dash’s breath from his lungs. He caught himself with his hands and pushed himself back up into the air. Despite the baggy uniform shirt, Dash could see each and every muscle in his arms move with a refinement that only someone with extensive training and impressive strength could pull off.

He knew these muscles, this body almost as well as his own, but somehow, Danny Fenton’s hidden side never ceased to amaze him.

The three girls behind him (one of which happened to be Paulina herself) formed some sort of cradle with their arms. Danny pulled his arms into his chest midair before landing in the cradle of arms on his back. The girls’ arms gave with his weight, but only a little (really, that much wasn’t surprising either. Paulina had talked Dash’s ear off about the strength training regiment the squad got put through. Sometimes, it sounded worse than his own training).

As the girls’ arms came up with the rebound, so too did Danny. He tucked his legs in close, allowing Paulina and some other girl who’s name Dash didn’t know to catch his feet in their hands. The girl in the back helped push Danny upright before grabbing his ankles.

For a split second, they stayed there, Danny crouched down into the cheerleaders’ hands. In that split second, his shining eyes found Dash’s, and he broke into one of the widest grins Dash had ever seen on him.

Oh God. He really hoped he wasn’t about to get a nosebleed. Especially with how fast and hard his heart throbbed.

In one move, the girls hefted their arms up and Danny extended his knees.

And that’s when Dash thanked his boyfriend for always managing to distract him.

Being quarterback was more than just throwing a ball. The level of awareness needed was critical. He had to take in every detail, know exactly where each player was, make split-second, game-changing decisions, all in the matter of seconds. He had to see where a potential receiver would be before they were even there. Throw the ball with perfect precision to reach the receiver at the exact right time. His position demanded a keen eye, one that he had spent so long training to get that it stuck with him even off the field.

It was thanks to that keen eye that Dash was able to see the disaster before it struck.

The best he could figure was that game day adrenaline got to the girls and they ended up overcompensating for how surprisingly light Danny was. Whatever the reason, he could see it in the way they lifted Danny that it was too much force. Danny teetered back, his foot slipping free of the girls’ hold.

Dash was moving before he even registered it. He didn’t know if he’d ever run so fast in his life, not even during the state championships last year when he’d had to make a mad dash (no pun intended) for the game-winning touchdown. All he knew was he needed to get there. Just like making sure the ball got to the receiver.

Except this time, the ball was his boyfriend.

A horrified gasp rose from the crowd as they began to realize the situation. Danny was now falling freely. A jolt of terror shot down Dash’s spine, and he ran.

Ideally, he would’ve liked to properly catch Danny in his arms. As it was, though, he barely had the chance to stop underneath Danny’s falling form and begin to extend his arms before Danny fell into him, sending them both tumbling to the ground.

The murmuring crowd grew louder. Cries from the cheerleaders and confused expletives from his teammates assaulted his ears. Really though, the only sound he cared about was the ragged breathing right next to him.

He opened his eyes. The two of them laid in a tangle of limbs on the turf. Dash’s arms were loosely wrapped around Danny, and Danny himself was partially draped over Dash. Almost like a scene right out of the cheesy romance movies he loved watching so much.

Danny stared at him with wide blue eyes. “Dash?”

Dash couldn’t help himself. Maybe his own emotions were already running high, no thanks to the intense game going on, but when relief flooded him like a tidal wave, it was too much for him to handle. Burying his fingers into the back of Danny’s impossibly soft hair, he pulled his cheerleader’s face to his and kissed him with an intensity he could only hope came close to matching the passion in his heart.

That certainly got a rise out of the onlookers.

He couldn’t find it in him to care. All that mattered was Danny, here and safe in his arms, mouth pressed against his in a kiss that felt like it would last an eternity.

To his dismay, his lungs began to protest the lack of air. He pulled away, but only barely. Just enough to give him room to breathe. Just enough so that his lips still grazed Danny’s.

Danny grinned against his mouth. “I suppose you want to be my dashing knight in shining armor, huh?”

The pun didn’t escape him, but he refused to be fazed by it. “Shut up and let me kiss you,” he all but growled, pulling Danny in again. In spite of the preoccupation of his mouth, Danny laughed. The sound was music to Dash’s ears.

“Ohmigosh ohmigosh, Danny! And Dash! Are you okay?”

Paulina’s frantic cries broke the spell between the two of them. Breaking the kiss, Dash rolled over and looked up. It was only when he saw the faces of his teammates and the cheer squad staring down at the two of them that he remembered where they were.

On the football field. At the biggest game of the year.

In full public view.

Right.

Instinctively, he turned back to Danny, who still wore a wild grin on his face. He brought his hand up to Dash’s cheek and ran an affectionate thumb over it. Blue eyes sparkled in the bright stadium lights, shining with an excitement and encouragement that told Dash all he needed to know.

Always his cheerleader, in more ways than one. 

“Yeah,” Dash said, keeping his eyes locked on Danny’s. He smiled. “We’re more than alright.” ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~ Send me a ship and a number from this ask game and I'll write a drabble or draw a sketch!

Ayi Ayi Ayi I'm your little butterfly

Yeah I'm not letting this au go. Never. AND YOU'RE ALL GONNA SUFFER WITH ME❓❗

But why write angst...whem...fluff...

Lea get it

Camilo and Mirabel giggled as Nico and Milargo wrestled around on the grass in Mirabel's room. Camilo, once again, managed to sneak into her room. Yeah, he wasn't supposed to be there. But it never stopped them. The two puppies, who follow their owners around, were no different.

After watching them for a while, Camilo's eyes drifted to Milargo. He then remembered the painting of their Abuelo, Pedro, and his dog, Mariposa. He never realized it but...Milargo held an uncanny resemblance to Mariposa. Of course, their dog breeds look similar, but look very similar. It was almost scary.

"Hey, Mira?" Camilo asked, looking over at Mirabel, who was laughing as she looked at Camilo.

"Yeah?" She asked, adjusting her glasses as she looked between the two puppies and her primo.

"Did Milargo always have that butterfly mark on his ear?" Camilo pointed towards the small golden puppy, and Mirabel's eyes followed his finger. She saw the butterfly mark upon his fur and nodded.

"Oh yeah! Milargo, come here!" Mirabel called, and Milargo and Nico parted, darting over to their respective owners. Milargo squeezed under Mirabel's arm, and Nico scrambled onto Camilo's head. Mirabel gently held Milargo's ear, lifting it. "This?"

"Yeah, that right there! Has it always been there?" Camilo scooted closer, Nico's eyes looking down at their slightly younger puppy.

"Yup! It's been there since he came on my ceremony. I think it's a birthmark," Mirabel shrugged, looking down at her little puppy, who looked up at her with wide eyes. "I always thought it made him feel more like my dog. And butterflies are my favorite animal."

"Butterflies aren't an animal, that's a bug," Camilo corrected.

"I still like 'em," Mirabel shrugged.

"Well...you know Abuelo's dog, right?" Camilo questioned, and Mirabel nodded.

"Yeah, Mariposa," Mirabel said, remembering the painting in the hall.

"I noticed something about her and Milargo," Camilo mumbled, his small fingers gently touching the mark on Milargo's ear. "I mean, besides the fact that they both look almost like the same dog, Mariposa also has a butterfly mark on her ear."

Mirabel blinked before her eyebrows furrowed in thought. Her eyes widened in realization and she nodded her head in agreement. "Now that I think about it...they do! I think it's on the same ear too, right?"

Camilo smiled, and Nico yipped at Milargo. "Yeah! Hey...do you think Abuela noticed?"

Mirabel looked down at Milargo, who barked at her, then Nico. "Hm...I don't think so," Mirabel then lit up, and looked towards Camilo. "Should I show her?"

Camilo nodded his head eagerly, beaming. "Of course! She always looks sad when she looks at pictures of Abuelo and Mariposa, so maybe if you show her that she and Milargo look alike, she won't be so sad!"

Mirabel was on board with his plan. That had to work. After all, their abuela seemed to like all the dogs. Of course, Ophelia, who was their abuela's dog also liked all of the dogs, but that was a given, right? But Alma was the only one who had seen Mariposa when she was living.

"You gotta give me credit though. Cause I figured it out first," Camilo said and Mirabel rolled her eyes.

"Or you could just come with me," Mirabel said in an "isn't that obvious" kind of way. Camilo blinked before nodding.

"Oh yeah," Camilo muttered and Mirabel laughed

"We should do it tomorrow, ok?" Mirabel looked at her primo who nodded.

"Yeah. This will totally make abuela happy," he smiled, looking at his younger cousin.

SO WHAT DO WE THINK...

No but genuinely I really do like this au 😭 I did the drawing because 1, I wanted to. And 2, I've been wanting to have a color scheme for the dogs, just because it's easier than having to look it up everything. Especially Milargo, but also Nico.

Also I have this. Stupid running joke (that I only find funny) when Nico, at some point, is on Camilo's head. Even when they're older, and Nico is bigger. IT STILL HAPPENS. Camilo doesn't find him heavy, and if anyone asks where he is, he'll be like "Oh yeah idk" and Nico is just. On his head 💀

OK THAT'S IT <333 ALSO HAPPY THANKSGIVING 🗣🗣🗣🗣🐕🐕🐕🦅🦅🦅🦅

crimeboys runaway au inspo: tommy eventually opening up about his abusive home life makes wil start to hesitate about giant and human relations but meanwhile tom realizes that giants have treated him kinder than any human ever has and he desperately wants to join giant society but knows that's impossible. Maybe there are human niches that work well in giant society job wise? anyway protective giant sbi!

ooooo i like this >:)

Tommy in this au has some serious issues with talking about his issues, but, as vaguely as I can put it, something happens that makes it so Tommy has to tell Wil that his home life sucks. After this Wilbur makes it a point to help Tommy though everything and make sure he always feels heard, which Tommy’s never had before.

I love the idea that Wilbur makes Tommy feel safer and happier than any human ever has, and he would definitely grow to want to join human society.

As for jobs, in this au, giants and humans are split completely and most never meet someone of a different size in their entire lives. I’d say the only people who might meet with people of different sizes are people who enforce the separation laws and bring the people who cross the barrier back to their proper side.

Maybe Wilbur and Tommy could make something, though, or try to convince humans and giants that they should try to be more connected. After all, that “giant airbnb” app thing that Wilbur and Tommy met on exists, why can’t there be more? I think that could be cool!

As for protective sbi, i hate to say it, but that might take a little while in this au. I love them, don’t get me wrong, it will happen, but neither Techno nor Phil know anything about Tommy’s existence. Techno doesn’t like the idea of what Wilbur is doing with Tommy and Phil just hates the idea of humans and giants meeting at all in general. It’ll take some time before Tommy even meets them, let alone gets them to be ok with his presence.

For those not tapped into Australian politics, King Charles is in Australia to conduct his "historic first tour to the commonwealth realm" i.e visting countries that King Charles is supposedly a monarch to.

Indigenous senator Lidia Thorpe had requested an audience with King Charles for weeks prior to this visit, she wrote countless letters to speak to him. Unlike other commonwealth nations and other former Brisitish colonies, a treaty with Indigenous peoples in Australia was never formed. Their land was never ceded to the British Crown. After being denied and ignored, Lidia Thorpe, draped in a traditional possum skin cloak, stormed in the Great Hall during the reception for Charles at Parliament House in the capital shouting the following:

I literally can't even look at these photos without getting goosebumps.
