Total Drama Future AU design 14!

Ezekiel is 38 in this AU.

After AllStars, he was rescued from the Island by a small search party consisting of Geoff, Izzy, Justin, Gwen, Zoey, and Duncan.

They brought him home and got him some treatments to reverse his mutations. They also got him into some much-needed therapy.

During this time, Justin developed a bit of a crush on Ezekiel. He had seen how starved the boy was for attention and genuine affection.

After a discussion with Trent, Justin asked Ezekiel if he wanted to join their relationship, and Ezekiel immediately agreed.

In 2017, Ezekiel got married to Justin and Trent.

In 2023, he was overjoyed to meet their daughter, Trisha. He vowed to be the best father he could possibly be to her.

Along the line, he grew his hair back and refused to cut it.

He hasn't fully recovered from his time as a mutant, but he's doing great so far.

Family Pasta Night

Trent Alexander Arnold x Reader

tw-google translated italian, light swearing i think?

You and Trent had been dating for about 6 months now and despite meeting most of your family members, he had yet to meet your brothers. But with your brother's birthday coming up your mamma had decided to throw a family pasta night for your family.

You were on the way there now, a couple hours early so that you guys could help in the kitchen before everyone else arrived, and your boyfriend's knee was bouncing as he drove.

You tried to calm your boyfriend but nothing seemed to work, he was shy in nature and your brothers were super loud and outgoing but he wanted to make a good impression on them. "Baby, you make me so incredibly happy and they'll love you because I love you and they want me to be happy more than anything and you make me so happy."

He sends you a small smile and gives you a kiss on the cheek in thanks before he climbs out of the car and opens your door for you.

Your mamma greets you when you get there, kisses pressed to both of your cheeks as she ushers you into your childhood home, overjoyed that her baby girl is home and happy to see your boyfriend again. Your mamma loves Trent, they go on coffee dates every other week when you get your nails done, and talk to each other about you.

You guys walk into the kitchen, an apron is presented to both of you before she pulls you over toward the kitchen side. your papa comes in to greet you both quickly before he rushes out to buy some more wine for dinner.

You guys get straight to work, you and your mamma directing Trent on what to do with his task as you guys teach him some different Italian words.

He points at things and you guys tell him the Italian for it, "formaggio" (cheese), "frusta" (whisk), you shake your head as you tell him that pasta is the Italian word for pasta. His cheeks turn bright red as you and your mamma giggle, but you give him a kiss on the cheek as an apology, your mamma doing the same.

You guys spend about an hour in the kitchen making sure everything is ready, your papa had joined you when he got back, turning on some music in the background as he and Trent took turns in twirling you and your mamma around.

By the time you hear the knocks on the door, you all have rosy cheeks from your dancing and the heat of the kitchen. You rush to the door, excited to see your brothers for the first time in months and you swing the door open to see all four of them standing there.

You throw yourself into the arms of your oldest brother as he exclaims, "ciao piccolo!" (hello little one)

Your other brothers join in on the hug, pressing kisses to your hair as they tell you how much they missed you.

As you all pull away from the hug a look of seriousness crosses their faces before one of them asks you where your boyfriend is. You scowl at them and tell them that they will be nice to him or else you'll kick all their asses and then mamma will too.

You lead them through to the dining room where Trent and your parents are laying out the food and walk over to your boyfriend, giving him a reassuring smile and a squeeze to the hand, before you turn and glare at your brothers.

They all shake Trent's hand making sure they eye him down as they introduce themselves, you can tell Trent is nervous but he loves you and is willing to put himself through this if it means you guys can be together.

You made sure to sit your boyfriend in between you and your mamma at dinner so that he wasn't completely overwhelmed by your siblings. You managed to keep the conversation light at dinner, mostly telling your family about recent work projects you were doing and telling them about how good Trent had been playing recently.

The talk of football got your brothers intrigued and they all started chatting about Liverpool's season and how Trent thought the season would end for the team. You and your mamma shared a smile over Trent's head, glad they were getting on with each other.

As dinner came to an end your brother and Trent cleared the table, telling you and your parents to stay at the table for a minute. You and your mamma shared a worried look as they left, both of you quietly whispering to each other as your papa just sat there smiling.

After a few minutes, Trent and your brothers come back in and carry on as if nothing had happened. You looked at Trent in question but he just smiled and asked you if you were ready to go home.

You guys said your goodbyes and headed out the door, promises of pasta night at your house made as you got in the car.

You looked at your boyfriend with a silent question in your eyes, asking if he was okay or if you needed to go back in there and kick some ass. But your boyfriend just gave you a kiss and asked you what pasta you guys should make at the next pasta night.

Eye to eye 2

Chapter 20🤍

-

Over the next months, Ella had gotten better at seeing her beauty as her confidence grew and grew. The twins were now one year olds which was crazy for her and Trent to think about. They were able to speak in one word sentences, building their language skills along the way. Ella couldn't help but think back to the moments when they said their first word. It brought her so much joy.

|

The family all sat together in the living room, Trent holding Tayah and Tahj being held by Ella. They were ten months old, enjoying their parents company. The show that was playing on the TV seemed to have enveloped Tayah's gaze as her eyes were glued to it. It wasn't until one of the characters started talking about to their parents that Tahj paid attention. Trent and Ella suddenly heard him making his usual baby noises, but this time, he was focusing more on it. It was the cutest thing ever. "Ma." He began, trying his best. Ella held him up and turned him around so that he could face her, hopefully making it easier for him to say.

"Say 'mama'" She spoke in a baby voice, knowing Tahj understood what she was saying. "Ma-ma. Come on my love."

"Say 'da-da'" Trent joined in hoping that could change his son's mind. He would be proud and ecstatic regardless.

"No- don't say 'dada', say 'ma-ma.'" She immediately earned a side eye from Trent who was behind climbed on by Tayah, wanting to be held by him, which he did and gave her a little kiss. "Ma-ma."

"Ma-" Tahj repeated this previous attempt. Trent and Ella were used to the twins babbling but this was a first.

"Yeah. 'Ma-ma." Ella was making sure to sound it out for him. This was an unforgettable moment.

"Mama." Tahj finally managed to say the word, causing Ella to squeak lightly. Trent was smiling uncontrollably, feeling overjoyed. He was so proud of his son.

"Well done buddy." Trent leaned over to give him a kiss now. This was a moment that would forever live in their minds.

2 weeks later

Trent and Ella were up in the nursery, getting the babies changed as they were meeting with Tyler and Olivia soon. Tahj got used to saying 'mama' and eventually to saying 'dada' aswell which made Trent beam. They knew it was only a matter of time before Tayah said her first word. Trent changed Tahj into a little black tracksuit which looked adorable on him while Ella was still deciding what to put Tayah in. She decided that a cute little dress would look so cute especially with her matching shoes. It was going to look absolutely perfect on her. Ella also needed to do her hair after which she would just put in a ponytail and add a matching bow afterwards.

"Do you like the dress princess?" Ella giggled as she saw her daughter playing with the dress with her tiny fingers. "Yeah?"

"Mama." Tahj spoke seeing Ella come back from the bathroom where her and Tayah previously were.

"Ma-" Tayah began saying, being influenced by her brother. Trent watched Ella sat her down on the little couch, holding Tahj.

"Yes my love. Say 'mama'" Ella was bent down, looking at her little princess, encouraging her to say it. Trent wanted for one of his kids to say 'dada' first but it was moments like these that were the most important to me.

"Ma-ma." Trent added on, knowing that his competitiveness was going to get him nowhere, so he decided to help his daughter out.

"Come on, listen to me and dada." Ella said calmly and excitedly. "Ma-ma." She was delighted that this was the second time this happened.

"Mama." Tayah finally got it. Ella instantly picked her up and gave her a kiss, making Tayah giggle and little and then Tahj.

"Well done princess." Trent smiled at her with an ecstatic face. He was so glad that both his babies had said their first word. Ella was beyond joyous.

|

Now that it had been a couple months since they first spoke their first word, they had developed their knowledge had learned other words such as 'up', 'no' and 'bye'. They regularly used 'mama' and 'dada' which Trent and Ella were on cloud nine over. They were also briefly able to say each other's names. Ella would sit in her room, recalling those sweet things. She would also remember their first steps.

|

Jude had come over was in the living room with Trent and the twins. It was fascinating to Jude that he could talk with his niece and nephew, even though he didn't understand most of what they were saying half the time. Tahj was laying on his dad's chest while Jude held Tayah and bounced her gently.

"Up." She said with a smile, facing her uncle who didn't quite get what she meant. This was something he was going to have to learn.

"You wanna get up Tay?" Jude asked, standing her up on his lap as she held out her arms, indicating that she wanted to get down. "Oh, you wanna stand up."

"Up." She repeated his last word, causing him to chuckle a little. It was so wholesome that he couldn't help continue to smile after. He loved his niece and nephew so much. Obviously, Jobe was Tahj's favourite and Tyler was Tayah's favourite but maybe one day him and Marcell would get the titles.

Jude placed her feet on the floor and took her little hands in his. Trent had to record this precious moment. Carefully, Jude then began walking slowly with her. Tayah was smiling through the whole thing and could see her dad was very proud. Trent made sure to call Ella downstairs so that she could see aswell.

"Dada." Tayah called out, being helped by her uncle. Ella was watching with the a big beam, so proud of her.

"Yes princess. You're doing such a good job. Well done." He was still recording her, wanting to capture as much as he could.

"Up." Tahj was telling his dad that he wanted to walk like his sister, so Trent gave Ella the phone and she was now recording.

Tahj's feet were now on the ground with his hands held by Trent. When he began walking, Tahj let out little squeals of excitement. This was another moment that would become unforgettable. Ella made sure to show them the video once they had finished.

The next day, Trent brought a mini football for them so that he could teach them how to kick a ball, causing Ella to laugh. He wanted to introduce them to the sport as soon as he could so that if they did want to play football, they would have an early start and interest. His plan was to get them into the academy when they were older, which would make them to progress. He would watch matches with them on TV, would speak more about it with them so that they could eventually learn the terms and brought them to every home game and some England games.

"Baby, they've just started walking." Ella laughed, seeing him walk through the door with the mini football. He had also ordered two mini goals to go along with it.

"What?-" He stopped and stared at her innocently. It seemed as if  he was defending himself. This was so sweet.

|

Ella was so proud of them both, it was amazing that they were beginning to walk and talk already. Another thing that made her so gleeful was that she had finally started working. She was a psychologist/therapist who enjoyed her job tremendously. Not only was she able to provide more for her family, she was working in a field that she had aspired to become apart of since she was young. The building having a day care only made her love the place even more because it meant that she could bring the twins with her to work when Trent was at training. While she was working, they would be down with the other babies being looked after but her new friend and colleague. When she had breaks she would go downstairs and spend time with them. When Trent didn't have training or a match, they would stay home with him. Yes, he was rich, but this was what Ella had always wanted to do and what was wrong with having more money? He was more than proud of Ella and the fact that she had been working so hard over the last couple of months. It brought him so much happiness that she was doing something she was passionate about. Their relationship was strong from the beginning, but this made them stronger. She would come home around 5pm, leaving them time to chill and enjoy each other's company. Ella loved coming home and making dinner for her family and afterwards watching movies or just relaxing with them. She still managed to go to all his home games as it didn't disrupt her schedule at all. She was living her dream. Their sex live was still incredible as usual, them having to be quiet when they were home however. Trent and Ella had no complaints. They were like the perfect family.

During the holiday, Ella, Trent and the babies went to LA. It was so much fun as it was their first time out of the country. They went to the beach which Tahj particularly loved as he observed the people swimming and was building a sandcastle with Trent and Tayah. Ella was definitely relaxing. Tayah enjoyed going into the water as Ella held onto her, gliding her through the water. Trent recorded the whole thing as he sat with Tahj who didn't want to go in yet. When Tahj did want to go in, Ella did the same thing she did with Tayah. He was so joyful in the water. They were the happiest little babies. This meant a lot for Trent because he had always felt connected the LA, and he was finally able to go there with the people he loved.

On the other hand, the stalker hadn't stopped with their foolish actions when they were home. They had seen the masked figure almost every two weeks but thankfully, the police were now involved and investigating this whole situation. Soon, they would find out exactly who this person was.

Trent's pov

Trent had arrived at the AXA training centre and was ready to get the day started. He had slept very well last night due to his heated session with Ella. When he stepped through the doors, he was immediately greeted by Virgil who dapped him up and a camera recording, meaning the video would be out on Instagram and Tiktok. He knew that he had to use this season to honour Klopp and do his best and he was going to do that. It was hard for him to accept Klopp's departure as he had been such a father figure to him for eight years. Having a new manager would give him new challenges but at the end of the day, he wished Klopp would've been here forever.  During the last match of the season, he had brought out Aura because he couldn't decide which one the twins to bring out. He couldn't bring both out and so he opted for his other favourite girl. Aura was calm and acted the like the queen of Anfield, which was such a cute and exciting moment for him and his family. Ella watched him hold Aura and couldn't stop smiling as he kept plastering little kisses on her forehead. Her and Olivia recorded every minute of it. When it came to the lap of honour, the three babies all wanted to be with him which made everyone laugh, as it seemed he couldn't go a few seconds without holding a baby. Tayah wanted to be held and when Tahj saw, he wanted to join his dad and sister, then when Diane took the twins, Aura him to hold her. The fact they all were able to meet Jurgen was what made him emotional. That would forever live on in his memories. Trent cried uncontrollably when interviewers asked him about it which he found funny because he never cried. He couldn't imagine the three of them growing up and having to watch him under a different manager. Trent and Jurgen still kept in contact, regularly checking up on each other so it wasn't as if that was the last time they were going to see one another. He would always ask how Ella, Diane and the babies were, including Aura. It made Trent feel better about everything because he knew he could always meet up with him if they got the chance, and with Jurgen retired, it wouldn't be weird for him to. Jurgen also kept contact with Virgil. Being at the AXA with Arne in charge was strange, but he was a very nice man. A lot had changed.

"Look at you." Robbo spoke with a wide smile as he saw his favourite scouser. He immediately slapped his backhead.

"Ow." Trent reacted, continuing to walk while Robbo joined alongside him. The two made their way to the cateen where they were met with Joe. Joe was always a very relaxed man, Trent wished he could be like that sometimes.

They went and sat at the table were the usually sat at in their group, later being joined by none other than Sabrina. Since she had been going to therapy regarding her mental health, she had gotten so much better. Trent had properly forgiven her with the help of Ella who explained that Sabrina wasn't a bad person. She had been struggling for a long time and now that she was getting help, she was a better friend. Ella told Trent that he should speak to her when he was ready and when he did, Sabrina seemed like a whole different person, a brighter and kinder individual. Ella and Sabrina would talk briefly whenever they would see each other which wasn't that often but Ella was proud of the progress Sabrina had been making. Seven months later, Dominik had gotten his wish as Sabrina was starting to pay more attention to him. She wasn't really looking for a relationship or interested in men at the moment, focusing on healing however.

"Hi guys." Sabrina sat down as she needed to speak to Robbo about his injury, being greeted back by the boys. He had picked it up the most recent game. "Robbo, how's your leg feeling?" As the physio, she had to ask him these kind of questions.

"It's a better better. It's not like a big injury, it's just a little one. It should pass soon hopefully." Robbo replied before taking another bite of his food.

"If the pain hasn't passed by next week, you need to tell me." Sabrina then let him know. She was taking her job very seriously. "How are you doing Trent?"

"I'm okay." Trent answered in a calm manner, eating was his main focus right now. He was also proud of her and now much she had improved. "You?"

"I'm doing great." Sabrina smiled at her friend before quickly remembering that she had to go speak to Quansah who was with Bradley. "I'm coming back."

After they had finished their food, it was time for them to go to the gym, warming up for when they would go outside on the pitch. Trent made sure to stretch and work out effectively so that he was ready. When it was time to go outside, Arne explained clearly what they were going to be doing so that there was no confusion. He was a very good coach and the other coaches were very helpful aswell. Firstly, they did running exercises with the cones and equipment so that they could warm up even better. Then, they split up into two teams, with one person in the middle of the circle trying to get the ball while the rest in their group passed the ball in between them. This was useful when it came to getting the ball from the opposite team in matches, and passing under pressure. This was also needed for their next activity, a game. The two teams played against each, trying to hit it past either Alisson or Kelleher. Salah had scored, unsurprisingly but it was a very good goal. Trent had delivered a goal passed the keeper also, making him proud of himself. Finally, the team practiced their shooting as they took turns to hit the back of the net. After training, Trent went to go get changed and asked Arne if there was anything to improve, which he would've told him anyway. Trent felt exhausted now that it was time for him to go home.

Arriving home, Tayah greeted him at the door, slowly walking towards him but falling along the way. She was able to get back up and continue to her dad. Trent picked her up straight away and saw Tahj joining them.

"Well done my angels." He kissed them both before he saw Ella in the kitchen making food. He made his way over to her and kissed her cheek aswell.

"How was training?" She asked, while Tayah started playing with his ear and Tahj leaned his head against his shoulder.

"It went well. I'm so tired though." Trent answered, looking at what she was cooking and then at her. He loved being a family man.

"Are you gonna take a nap?" She turned to face him also. She found him so alluring when ever he would come home from training and had those particular eyes. "Cos' the food won't be ready for another hour?"

"Yeah, maybe for a little bit then." He let out before sighing. The twins knew what it meant when he sighed.

"Noo dada." Tayah tightened her tiny arms around his neck in a saddened tone, not wanting her dad to go to sleep.

"Dada." Tahj did the same thing, agreeing with his sister. They most likely wanted him to play with them and be around him after he was gone for two hours.

"I'm not allowed to take a nap?" Trent questioned, giggling at his babies and how clingy they were to him.

"Noo." Tahj told him, tightening his grip around him. Ella was the same with her dad when she was toddler and so were Jude and Jobe so she couldn't help to chuckle also.

"No." Tayah added to her what her brother said. They both frowned as they spoke, making Trent feel bad for even saying he would take one.

"Dada's tired my loves. He'll be right down after to play with you. Okay?" Ella tried to help Trent out which didn't completely work as she earned a 'Hmm' from frowning Tayah.

"It Doesn't Matter If Your Gay, You're Still Our Friend" Part One

What if Trent wasn't the only one to catch Colin and Michael making out in the alley?

Written between the airing of 3x3 and 3x4

Pairing: Colin Hughs x Michael

Coming Out, Mental Breakdown, Angst with a Happy Ending, Light Angst, Canon Compliant, Canon Queer Relationship, Canon Queer Character, AFC Richmond Players are Himbos

Colin couldn't fully wrap his head around how he could go from having a fun night out with his friends to sobbing in his partner's arms at home in just a single hour.

The night started off great.

He carpooled to Sarn's restaurant with Richard, Dani, and Isaac. This wasn't unusual. The team would often branch off into groups and celebrate after a big win. Considering their winning streak, it was only natural.

They were getting rounds of drinks (all on Sam, of course), and joking around.

"I'm not one those guys, but considering how much we've been wining with Zava around, and seeing how much he can move his body? He could do whatever he wanted to me." Richard said with a grin.

Dani and Isaac laughed. Colin laughed along.

He pushed down the punch to the gut feeling he got from his friend's words.

'They don't know.'

They didnt know he was one of those guys.

He knew they meant no harm. Colin wouldn't say his teammates were homophobic. They were just guys being guys. He knew Moe's best friend and uncles were gay. And he knew Jan Maas's twin sister was transgender. From basic observation, the team didn't seem to care. Sure, some of them looked surprised when one of them mentioned someone was gay, but no seemed to mind when it was mentioned.

But still, the topic scared him, It was one thing to be friends with someone who had gay friends, it was another to be friends with a gay person. And said person being your colleague? Considering just how many different cultures and backgrounds everyone on the team came from, and given what Colin knew about classic locker-room culture, it wasn't worth the risk.

He felt a mix of emotions when Michael showed up. He was overjoyed when he saw Michael, but it hurt he had so much love to give his boyfriend. But he couidn't give him anything more than a dude-bro handshake. He had to introduce the love of his life as his best friend. 'His wingman'. And to his closest friends no less.

"I'm trying," Michael said, taking a sip of his drink, "Trust ne, it's harder than you think." This got a chuckle out of all of them. Though, it was probably funnier to the two of them, considering the context was different for them compared to his friends.

Dani grinned, "Oh, come on. A footballer with a smile and personality like that? Plenty of women would want him."

"No woman has really caught my interest, l guess." Colin leaned back in his chair.

He was really hoping that they would leave it at that, and move on from the topic. But they continued.

"We'll just have to get you to some bars around town. Maybe use Bantr, like Sam." Dani patted Colin's shoulder. "Michael. You said you're his wingman. Would you like to join us?"

Michael laughed. Only Colin could see how the conversation was starting to make him uncomfortable. Michael took a bigger sip of his drink, "I'd like to see you try."

Eventualy (thankfully), the subject matter died down, all of the attention going to Zava when he made his grand entrance.

Colin and Michael were able to sneak away without anyone being suspicious of them. They knew it was safe when they were a block or two away from the party.

"Hi Colin."

"Hi Michael."

They embraced each other warmly, now being comfortable enough to do So. Colin kissed him eagerly. Michael laughed when he pulled away.

"Eagar much?"

Colin whined, "I just missed you. I don't like it when you go away."

Michael put his hand on Colin's cheek, "I missed you too. You know, we still have a bit of time left before people notice we're gone. Maybe we could..."

Colin took this as his cue to lean back in.

He loved being like this. He loved feeling Michael's hair in his hands, and their bodies seemed to fit perfectly together.

"Colin?"

His blood ran cold. They must have lost track of time.

They quickiy puled away from each other. Colin looked over to see Dani, Isaac, Richard, Jan Maas, and Jamie.

"Hey, guys," he said awkwardly, "What are you guys doing? Party's still going on inside."

"We were gonna get another round of drinks. We wanted to find ya, see if you wanted to join." Jamie said.

"Yeah. Yeah, sounds good." He gave them a thumbs up.

"Maybe you had a little too much to drink," Jan Maas said, "You know you were kissing you friend Michael, right?" Everyone looked at him. "What?" he asked.

"Um yeah, I know." Colin looked back at his boyfriend for reassurance. Michael grabbed his hand, giving him a look that said go ahead. "Michael isn't my just my friend. And he definitely isn't my wingman. ...He's my boyfriend."

Dani and Jamie looked dumbfounded. He couldn't read Isaac and Richard's face. Jan Maas just looked like Jan Maas.

Colin turned to Michael and looked back at his friends. "We should go."

Colin and Michael quickly made their way back to the restaurant to get their things and leave. His teammnates followed.

He grabbed his drawstring bag and turned to Michael to make sure he had his keys (he knew Michael didn't drink enough to raise any concerns about driving).

"Colin, wait! It's alright if your gay, your still our friend!" Dani called out to him.

A hush fell over the room.

Looking around at all his friends, colleagues, and mutuals, it was clear everyone was shocked. Colin felt himself on the verge of tears. He looked to Michael for guidance.

"It's okay," he said, "Let's go." Michael guided him out of the restaurant and to his car. When the car door shut, he broke down crying.

Looking out the window, he could see his whole team (minus Zava) and coach Ted standing outside Ola's, looking stunned.

Colin would feel ashamed of himself, but he didn't have the energy to care. He just wanted to crawl into bed with Michael and never leave.

When they got home, Michael led him straight to their bedroom. He made him take a shower and get a glass of water before letting him get into their bed.

"How're you feeling?" he asked.

"Not great." Colin replied.

Michael put a hand on his back, "Need anything?"

Colin shook his head. "I'm worried about us. What's gonna happen?"

Michael sighed, "I dont know. But were going to figure it together, yeah," Coin gave him an affirming nod.

It only when the got under the covers did Colin begin to cry again, letting Michael hold him the rest of the night.

[sighonaraa]

hi!!!

so sorry for sending another ask lol. i went through every post under the football kiddo au and omg omg omg!! getting such a huge brain rot rn. i recently fell in love with ted lasso and i didn’t realize there was a fandom (most live action shows don’t rlly have one) im just so excited to go more into this wonderful fandom and read these fics along with the post and yk. everything ab being a fangirl lol (wish i got into this show and fandom earlier but better late than never) anyway, i have my own thoughts ab this au that i would love to share.

who can forget everyone’s fav kitman, will! can you imagine will but not a baby will. instead he’s around fifteen or sixteen and had his own emotional trauma and baggage (bcuz every character deserves a good old angsty backstory). and he just helps the kids by giving them water and helping injuries (my highschool has an athletic trainer program. idk if uk schools do but it would be fun). like he’s just a teenager who lives in richmond with everyone else and just starts showing up to help their makeshift football club. and like practically gets adopted my trent and ted. and he sees roy as this older brother (my personal headcanon is will’s an older sibling who ends up being the parent in his house due to his parents being neglectful) and for once he gets to be treated not as a parent. and jamie and sam and the other boys remind him of his younger siblings. also, once he graduates highschool. everyone, the kiddos, ted, roy, beard, trent, rebecca, higgins, etc all show up to his grad. and are screaming from the audience along with his siblings (and his parents aren’t there ofc but his found family is)

also, rebecca is such a cool aunt. like she grows a soft spot for the kids and treats them like she treats nora

sorry about my rambles, i just love this fic so much and i can’t wait for more. also brb gonna read your other works. just i think we both can agree how much we love this little found family.

so much love <33

hi hello hi!! it's so lovely to have you join the fandom, it's a very fun and sweet little corner of the internet and i'm so glad you're here with us now :-) and weeps? WEEPS! i'm overjoyed to hear that you're enjoying the football kiddos au -- i am slowly but steadily working thru chapter 4 and getting comments like this shrimply makes my day.

first of all: I LOVE YOUR WILL THOUGHTS. PLEASE KEEP TALKING. i am ashamed to say that i forgot will existed sjdkfj but i do adore him and his funky ways and i am very [eyes emoji] about a teenage will herding his wee siblings of various ages around town while the adults follow behind and keep anyone from running off into the street. the entire team coming to his graduation........... oh weeps :') this is everything i adore. he'd be so gentle and caring with all of the kiddos but particularly the younger ones, and able to tease the older ones in such a specific Older Brother way. this is so!!! ough. i'm rotating a new plotline for will in my head as we speak.

second of all: you are SO correct about rebecca that is in fact EXACTLY how she's going to be once she finally meets the kiddos. and nora!!! nora my beloved. she and rebecca will be having a large role to play in this fic Mark My Words.

and third of all: please do not apologize, i adore hearing people's rambles about my fics and i cherish each and every comment with all my heart. and yes, we CAN agree on that. this little found family is very incredibly special to meeeeeeee. so much love to you right back!! <3

[toyboy-molloy]

for real though like I feel like they're just gonna end it with his completing the book, but that leaves a HUGE cavern of, what's next??? because he ensured he wouldn't be a journalist anymore. he decided his deeper thing to write about was 1 season at richmond (plus the previous 2 years of course but trent's only there doing it for the 1 season). that led to so much growth and community for him but...literally what is next for him. he can't just follow them like a puppy, unless they do well enough to qualify for the champions or europa league (but even if they do...no one is reading a book about that lmao).

where does he have next to go and do that would be any ounce fulfilling for him? and are they going to leave that completely unanswered?? I have fears!!!

honestly hard same. I’m worried the book will be published and that’s it. I’m holding out hope there will be a moment where trent’s like ‘my work here is done’ and everyone’s like ‘??? what the fuck you’re one of us now richmond till we die’. I would be overjoyed. and yeah I’m a hardcore tedtrent shipper but at the end of the day, whilst that would be a bonus if they went there, I just want my boy trent to be happy

anyway if they do end the show with the book being published and that’s it, I guarantee james lance will deliver on the ‘what’s going on with trent’ content since he’s done like 90% of the work for his character

[roman-roy-apologist]

okay come ON tedependant is so fucking painfully obvious ESPECIALLY in this new episode like holy FUCK trent is gonna explode and ted looks so fucking overjoyed man.

Torn

You knew this was going to be tough. One of the hardest things you would face in your life. Your job being one of the most important things to you, but your boyfriend being up their as well. When the final whistle blew indicating the 3-0 win for England, you're heart dropped for a moment, realizing who you would be facing. France, world champions and who's star boy just happened to be your boyfriend. Kylian knew that the two countries could potentially face each other he just hoped it wouldn't come to that, for his girlfriend's sake.

The minute Tchouameni's strike hit the back of the net you knew you were in for a long night. The thousands of outcomes flying through your brain, the idea of one of you going home tonight absolutely crushed and devastated. When the second penalty of the match was given to England you were glued to the edge of your seat. Trent sat next to you, hand in yours out of nerves. He missed, Harry Kane missed it and all you could do was hold back your tears. Kylian was laughing, happy and overjoyed at the prospect of qualifying for the semis. He had turned to look at the England bench, eyes scanning the seats for you and when he saw you he couldn't help but stop smiling. He saw you, head in hands, leaning against Trent and part of him broke. It didn't matter what caused it, he always hated seeing you upset. His focus went back to the game, 10 minutes away from securing victory.

England had been eliminated from the World Cup and every piece of your heart broke. Your family, your friends, your colleges all out on the pitch, devastated. Jude was the first person you walked over too, his head in his hands, crying. There was only so much support and comfort you could give whilst trying to hold back your own tears. Slowly making your way to the players on the pitch, offering support to the boys or congrats to the french players. A few of the french players knew you well and had given their condolences to you. Kylian had found you, in the middle of the pitch, hands on hips trying to hold back tears. Jogging up to you he pulled you into his side, your hands immediately covering your face, hidding any tears that have spilled. Wrapping your arms around his torso, Kylian held your head in his hand.

"Je suis désolé bébé" he whispered. Im sorry baby

"Don't be, you deserve this. It could have gone either way". Your voice was muffled by his chest but he still heard you. Your crying had turned into sobs, shaking in his arms slightly. "How am I supposed to comfort my players if I can't even stop myself from crying?"

"You're allowed to be upset my love. You don't have to fix everything all at once you know".

"I know, I just feel bad. But don't let that take away from the fact that you won, you're going to the semis". You pulled away from his chest, arms still around him. You mustered a smile, still proud of your boyfriend. "Je suis si fier de toi mon amour". You really did smile this time. Im so proud of you my love

"Are you staying here, to watch the semis?" He asked, eyes bright.

"Of course I am. I wouldn't miss it". He smiled, kissing your forehead and gently brushing the tears from your cheeks before letting you go. He ran over to his teammates who were celebrating in front of the french fans. You walked over to your players, still distraught and upset but held their heads up. As they should because they should be proud of themselves just like you were off them. You looked back at the french players in the corner, eyes finding Kylian. He smiled, waving at you and blowing you a small kiss. A wistful smile upon your face. You whisper, fully know he couldn't hear you, "Je t'aime".

The Lemon Legacy: Generation 1, Chapter 134 - Finally a Family

They find Jaden waiting for them patiently on the couch

Jaden: Hi!

Xander: Hey, buddy. Do you know where we went?

Jaden: Noooo.

Xander: We went to go talk to a nice lady and sign some very important paperwork. Do you know what "adoption" means?

Ophelia: Adoption means that we love you so much, that we want the world to know that you've joined our family. Now everyone knows that we're the grown-ups in charge of you.

Jaden thought that was already obvious but okay!

Ophelia: Now you're officially Jaden Taylor Lemon!

Ophelia and Xander had agreed changing his last name was for the best. They didn't want him to feel different from the other kids, even if he was adopted.

Wow, he and Gemma have the same last name now! What are the odds?

Jaden: Yay! I'm Gemma and Lulu's brother, and you're their mommy and daddy… Does that mean you're my mommy and daddy too?

Ophelia remembers what Anna told her.

Ophelia: We can be whatever you want us to be. You can call us that if you'd like, or we can just be your grown-ups.

ander: Families can look different. No matter what you call us, we're still your family and we're still going to love and take care of you.

Jaden: Oh. Okay. Can I go play now?

They knew he was still too little to understand much, but they guess he took it well.

It had been a few weeks since the adoption process was finalized. The kids certainly kept Ophelia busy, along with her lessons with Trent, but she's starting to get restless, so she sends a quick message to her agent asking about any upcoming opportunities.

Ophelia is interrupted when she hears someone cry out "MOMMY" from Jaden's room.

She knows Gemma and Jaden were playing in there, so she goes to investigate.

Gemma's cooking away at the play kitchen, and before Ophelia can ask her what she called her for, a sulking Jaden toddles up to her.

Jaden: Mommy, Gemma's not giving me a turn! She's had like a bazillion turns!

It… It was Jaden who called for her. He called her Mommy.

Ophelia holds herself together as much as she can, but she can't help but scoop her son up as she scolds Gemma.

Ophelia: Gemma, you've played kitchen long enough. Your have to share with your brother.

Darn it, foiled again! Oh well, Chef Gemma will go play blocks instead.

Jaden: Thank you, Mommy!

Ophelia could cry. She doesn't want to scare Jaden, so she holds it together.

Ophelia: You're so welcome, sweetheart. Now go cook up something yummy!

Ophelia can't help but let out a little happy squeal. She's overjoyed he feels like he belongs there.

Ophelia runs into the nursery, where Xander is talking to Lulu, to tell him the news.

Xander: Where's the fire, Lemon Cake?

Ophelia: Jaden just called me Mommy!

They'd never force Jaden to call them anything he didn't want to, but the fact he wanted to is big news!

Xander: That's great, babe.

Ophelia: Has he…?

He knows what she wants to ask.

Xander: No. It's okay, though.

Before she can reassure him, Jaden comes zooming in.

Jaden: Mommy, me and Gemma wanna play outside!

Mommy: Okay, but you need a grown-up watching you.

Jaden looks up at Xander.

Jaden: Daddy, can you come play with us?

And Ophelia thought she was excited.

Xander: Yeah. Anything for you, short stack. You two go wait downstairs. I need to talk to Mommy first, and then we'll play.

Jaden: Okay!

He zips off, completely unaware of how much he's absolutely wrecked his parents.

The two don't even know what to say. All the can do it hold each other.

The struggles they've been through the past few weeks were all worth it if it meant they were Jaden's mommy and daddy.

Lulu, meanwhile, is just vibing, as per usual. Love that for her.

⟡ pairing: trent alexander arnold x fem!reader

⟡ summary: what the request says.

⟡ content: fluff, pet names (sweetheart, baby), clingy trent, suggestive at the end, around five hundred words.

⟡ notes: thank you for the request, hope it’s what you wanted 🫶🏻

⟡ streaming: void by the neighbourhood.

⟡ masterlist, request.

when trent returned from his international duty, he was overjoyed to see you after three agonizing weeks.

your face fit perfectly against his chest as you embraced him tightly, showing no intention of ever letting him go.

you hadn’t informed trent you were going to pick him up from the airport as you couldn’t wait to see him any longer. his surprise was evident, and he couldn’t contain his excitement, smiling so much that his cheekbones hurt.

“i missed you, sweetheart.” trent whispered next to your ear, causing a shiver to run down your spine. it had been far too long since you last had him this physically close, settling for mere glimpses of him through a phone screen.

“so much.” he added, emphasizing the depth of his longing.

his words stirred powerful emotions within you, prompting your eyes to well up with tears. being in trent’s arms felt so incredibly right.

“i missed you too.” you responded softly, barely audible as you focused on embracing him tightly, fearing that he might slip away for another three weeks.

eventually, you both had to break away from the embrace. however, trent kept his arms securely wrapped around your waist, unwilling to let go just yet.

he gazed at your countenance, savoring the features he adored so deeply. “how on earth did i get through these three weeks without touching you even once..?” trent mused, causing your cheeks to flush crimson.

as much as trent longed to kiss you right then and there, he couldn’t bring himself to do so.

the presence of the press and their ready cameras irked and made him hesitant. he didn’t want you to feel uncomfortable—knowing public pda wasn’t exactly your thing, so he settled for a gentle kiss on your cheek instead.

trent, however, couldn’t resist his desire after returning to your shared home.

as soon as you entered and closed the door, he passionately kissed you, his hands gently running through your hair. he held onto you tightly, pressing his body against yours with a sense of urgency.

“feels like eternity since i last saw you, baby..” trent whispered, his forehead gently touching yours, his gaze filled with deep affection and adoration.

“and have you become even more beautiful? how can a person become more beautiful than they already are?” he added, his words causing a blush to spread across your usually composed face.

trent always had a way of making you feel like the most cherished woman in the world.

“but you saw me every day.” you playfully countered, a bashful grin forming on your lips.

trent scoffed, “yes, but through a screen. it’s just not the same.” he argued, planting a series of kisses all over your face, making playful “mwahmwahmwah” sounds that elicited giggles from you as you playfully tried to squirm free from his grip.

“alright, alright,” you laughed wholeheartedly, linking your fingers with his as you led him away from the door and towards the kitchen.

“i’ve prepared some food for you. eat first, and then you can kiss me all you want, deal?” you suggested.

trent’s eyes twinkled with excitement at the suggestion, a smug smirk forming on his face as his mind wandered to more than just a few kisses.

“how about i eat you instead?” he responded, wrapping his arms around your waist and drawing you close to him from behind.

“trent.”

“oh alright..”

My dollhouse was my pride and joy and one time my dad was at the dump and found another dollhouse in the trash so he brought it home for me so when I had 2 dollhouses I was overjoyed because I could act out having divorced parents and sometimes I’d have the little doll kids spend the night at dad’s (the garbage house) or at mom’s (the original house)

My dad is a hoarder so it was literally a garbage house when we had to stay there

I for some reason can never remember the toy I used for my original character

My brother and I used aliases instead of our real names because we hate our names

So he was Nick

I was Jessika but went by Jess

I remember whenever I had a boyfriend/husband it was either black Dino Thunder ranger Tommy or white Dino Thunder ranger Trent

But Trent was also used as a bad guy sometimes because he had an evil ranger plot

It was always fun

[fagdykefriendship]

good god that finale was perfect. never have i ever spoilers below

1) DEVI AND HER MOM… that last scene of Devi not wanting to leave, talking to her dad.. those mother daughter scenes always make me cry like a baby. ugh. their relationship is the foundation of that show

2) Devi showed a lot of clear growth. like is there some drama yeah but she clearly has become a better friend and better person. she apologizes genuinely, is very emotionally mature about things that would’ve caused her to break down before. she takes therapy more seriously. she even reflects on her father and how much he meant to her and realizes she’ll always have him with her…

3) Devi and her culture. okay the bollywood dance was cheesy but there’s also how she prayed to her gods before leaving in a very genuine and grateful way. that was beautiful to me it shows again a lot of growth from her.

4) DEVI AND. MOTHERFUCKING. BEN GROSS. I am so happy happy excited overjoyed. i knew they were end game. They’ve been slow building from the beginning. even after so much stupid miscommunication he was there for her and came back for her and she actually was very mature about their relationship for the most part.. i was screaming literally at the end i can’t believe it. Ben and Devi ftw!!!! i’m not typically interested in love triangles but i’ve been strongly team ben since day one so this is a huge win for me. also his sex dream about Devi dominating him was.. so real tbh love that for you Ben!

5) Devi and her friends. I love Fabiola, getting to pursue her dreams from day one and making robotics a more welcoming space. Eleanor is silly and her and Trent are so cute. their friendship survived high school and it was so lovely. trios are so important to our society

6) Devi and Paxton. I liked how they handled their relationship ending. she was very mature about it for once. the closure was good their friendship is so good. (can’t wait to go into the nhie tags and find their fans complaining)

7) Kamala!!!! my queen Kamala. She wasn’t as much in this season but I’m happy she’s thriving.

[pyrotechnicdarts]
