Regarding like Itager like in your mind what kind of dates do they go on
Like are they the kind of couple to go on like extravegant ass dates to like fancy restraunts and stuff or do they just like sit around in their house and like watch random movies
BOTH! I think because of germanys inexperience in his brain a date is only a date if its like "Take to dinner. Watch Movie. Wear something nice. Escort Home and if youre a slut get a kiss on the cheek." yknow the textbook definition, and because of that maybe once a month or something he will plan a date like that and be like Italy. Lets Go..... on a Date. and ofc italy is like hell yes bro me when i dont have to plan and hell pay for my meal n ticket đđ I think even sometimes he borrows Japans shoujo manga (since he canonically in draws in a manga-like artstyle.. thats crazy) and studies it with sticky notes and shit to get ideas for new dates. so i think if you asked them theyd say thats what their dates are, but really theyre having casual dates like every fuckin day. Because theyre also best bros and Italy will shoot himself in the head if germany cant attend daily movie night with him (never forget when germany hung out with greece for four hours and italy went *cries* YOUVE BEEN SPENDING ALL YOUR TIME WITH GREECE LATELY....) They go on adventures together all the time like Harold and Kumars quest for white castle and i think something like that can be considered a date, since a date is just doing shit together yes? If anything I think they get equally romantic together on a fancy date and daily best bro adventures, bc on a fancy date its not like germany suddenly gets all gay, hes still normal its more like theyre just hanging out doing fancier things because germany doesnt really know how act romantic (besides being classic germany flustered... actually i think the only difference in their pda together is that as bros germany is like whatever. ill hug you its a bro thing. but when hes on a date hes like PDA IS COMPLETELY INAPPROPRIATE. PLEASE WAIT UNTIL WE ARE IN A PRIVATE AREA. >///< and italy goes PLEASEE PLEASEEE GERMANY KISS KISS KISS IT ISNT A DATE WITHOUT A KISS PLEASEEEE and germany goes eugh.... fine. *blushes* and does it because germany will do anything for italy if he asks twice) and italy doesnt really change his behavior either cuz if anything he already constantly acts like a clingy affectionate amoeba so its actually all the same...? The only difference i suppose is that ironically at the end of the date they usually part ways because in germanys head thats what a gentleman doss after escorting someone home and italy is like whatever lol bc either way that night he breaks into germanys house, crawls into his bed naked + uninvited, and well.... *looks around* did anybody else see that? And when theyre at home chilling the only difference is that Italy already has step one done (infiltrating germanys home) so... it always ends the same practically everyday! What a wonderful date!
*NOTE: i do think that Italy has learned that he can only try macking out on Germany inbetween episodes/movies because bro locks in hard and will go BITCH GET OFF ME IM INVESTED RN if he tried mid show. And even when germany says fine ok after Italy asks twice hell be distracted bc he was so locked in so Italy has learned its better to just wait until his brain is released from the screen. In general thats how Germany is if hes doing a task so thats why one time they got hospitalized for 2 weeks because Italy tried to give road head while also being the driver! A man has to do what a man has to do
#robooty kun#itager sermon#ask#im like only 85-90% confident about this btw#because ive never been on a real date before so i feel like im lacking in knowledge here#all my information is from shoujo and yaoi so im ngl i have the same thinking as germany#but then a year or two ago i pondered for a long time and realized anything is a date if you both just consider it a date#so yeah thats what i think rn. but im not confident in that definition because it sounds quite flimsy...

For DADWC: "I remember all of them" from the adventuring party prompts, for Hawke and Tabris.
Pulled this one out of the archives because it sparked an idea that I engaged with instead of sleeping, lol. For @dadrunkwriting here's Hawke & Tabris during the events of Inquisition.
Words: 1090 Warnings: Blight is bad for your health.
-
Sometimes, she looked at Tabris and wondered how much of the woman was really left. There were days when Tabris was just as coherent and sharp around the edges as Serafina was, but the longer sheâd known the woman, the fewer those days had become. More often, she ranged from mostly lucid to completely catatonic.
In all truth, if not for Anders, Serafina would have written her off a long time ago. Whatever Tabris had been onceâan elf, a Warden, a heroâwas gone, twisted into the blighted creature that sat on the opposite side of the fire. Not quite darkspawn, but not an elf anymore, either. Even on the good days, her instincts screamed at her to run.
While this hadnât been a good day, it was far from being one of the worst. Tabris had, mostly, been coherent and as cooperative as she ever was (which wasnât much, though Anders said that was normal for her). After night had fallen, though, sheâd lapsed back into that unnerving state of catatonia: still sitting upright, but hardly ever blinking, much less moving. She said nothing, responded to nothing. If not for the fact that she still breathed, she might have been a statue.
Serafina tried to ignore her as best she could. The road to Adamant was a long one, and they still had a good week of travel ahead of them. She couldnât fathom why Tabris had insisted on going with them, and of course, she couldnât ask, either. Instead, she focused her attention on things that she could manage: painstakingly mending a tear in one of her shirts by the firelight, listening for any sign of trouble, watching Bear doze next to her. Anders was out of sight, asleep in their shared tent, and not for the first time since the sun had set, she wished heâd wake up so sheâd have someone to talk to.
Instead, she hummed while she worked on her torn shirt, an old melody she dimly recalled her father singing to her when she was small. So long ago now. His death long ago became an old, dull ache, but even the oldest of griefs still found the cracks in her heart. Spread your wings, my love / We all must learn to leave the nest. / But when you are throughâ
ââbe sure to come home and rest,â a rasping voice said, with just the barest touch of the tune.
Serafinaâs hands stilled and her eyes shot to where Tabris still sat perfectly still opposite her. Though still unmoving, the Wardenâs eyes gleamed in the firelight, suddenly alive. âYou know that song?â she asked.
Tabris did not answer right away, but she so rarely did. After a significant pause, she said, âYes.â She paused again, though not for as long, before she added, âElves sing our children lullabies, too.â
Once, Serafina suspected, that would have been sardonic or biting. Instead, it was simply⌠flat. She knew what to do with sharp edges and bitter words, but Tabris was⌠it was much like speaking to a rock wall. No matter what you said, it would not react, nor would it give you anything to work with. âIâm just⌠surprised you remember it, is all,â Serafina said, and turned her eyes back to her half-mended shirt. At her side, Bear was wide awake, every muscle tensed; she set a hand on his back in an attempt at reassurance. Though he was now an old dog by any measure, sometimes it was easy to forget that he wasnât as fast and strong as he had once been.
âLikely I remember more than you think,â Tabris croaked as she finally moved for the first time in hours, her joints audibly cracking as she lifted her arms and stretched.
âDo you remember how we met?â Serafina asked, careful to keep her tone even. There were a handful of questions that she and Anders had developed to determine how much of the elfâs mind was intact at any given time, but in her more lucid moments, Tabris had started to catch on to their motives. In a warped sense, it made the questions even more effective: the harder Tabris tried to evade questions or the more combative she got, the more lucid it meant she was.
Tabris made a sound that might have been a laugh, once. Instead it was more like a cough. âNear the ruins of Ostagar,â she said after several long seconds. âYou wereâhiding. I told you it was my hiding place. I didnât tell you Iâd only been there two days.â
Serafina swallowed a laugh. That had never come out before. The rest, though, was accurateâso, enough of Tabris to answer questions accurately, not enough to be difficult. She could work with that. Before she could ask a second question, however, Tabris asked, âWhere is Anders?â
âSleeping,â Serafina replied. âWhich you should also do.â
Tabris frowned. âI lost time again.â
âOnly a few hours, if that makes you feel any better,â Serafina replied.
âIt does not.â
She smiled wryly down at her torn shirt. âThen you remember your other Wardens, I assume. And the people who traveled with you during the Blight?â
âI remember them all,â Tabris said flatly. âI⌠wish I could speak to them again.â
âI mean⌠some of them are with the Inquisition. Leliana and Morrigan.â
Tabris huffed. âNot them.â
âWho, then?â
A long, slow inhale. Then an equally slow exhale. Finally: âAlistair. Zevran. Nathaniel.â
Strange, Serafina mused, that sheâd met all three in or near Kirkwall. âYou saw Nathaniel a few months ago,â she said.
âThings have changed,â Tabris said, and did not elaborate.
She was not the most socially adept, but she knew when a conversation was over. Aware that further prodding would get her nowhere, Serafina turned her attention back to mending her shirtâwhile keeping an eye on Tabris to ensure the blighted Warden didnât wander off. Not so long ago, she could be trusted to handle herself, but⌠less so, now. Thankfully, Tabris showed no inclination to get up and leaveâthough she also made no attempt to get up and try to sleep. Instead, they both continued to sit by the fire until Anders emerged from their lone tent in the early hours of the morning.
Her watch over, Serafina stopped long enough to claim a kiss from him, then herded her dog into the tent for a well-deserved rest. After daybreak, they would be on the move againâbut until then, blessed sleep.

Heyy girl hows it goingg! Congrats on ur amazinggg milestone. Totally deserved đŞźđŞź I was wondering if i cld get a matchup for genshin and hsr ! I totally loved the others u did.
I go by the she series and id love to be matched up w a hot man 𤤠my mbti is enfp and im a gemini! Im around 5â3 with tan skin and hv super grown out long dyed brown hair. I have 8 piercings total on my ears and i know im gna cop more next summer bless up. I wld say i def have a more summer oriented aesthetic i loveee me a tank top n shorts and bikini.
Im not surr what kind of personality i have .. but i think im a freak. I love to party nd go out w my friends obviii but i absolutely love spending time by myself bc im chill like dat. I think im pretty funny but i also follow my heart a lil too much and do whatever i want when i want, so i cant set boundaries w myself.. im def tryna work on that and have a healthy grindset and balance. Im down to do anything w my friends BUT im also a lil bit of bitch ngl⌠a lil bit of a hater if i see some weird activity in front if me
I love the beach and summer and drives with loud music playinggg. My ideal day is a warm summer day on the beach with some Js and scrolling thru the x reader tag on tumblr on my ipad.
My interests are surfing and paddleboardinf!! Im super into gymming and looking up wikipedia horror movie summaries. Im pursuing health rn too đ and i try to write in my free time but it never works out LOL. I also love thrifting and flea markets and im down to rage if u are đ¤
If i had a short life id probably honestly spend it at home w the fam and w my dog and w all my friends. Id love to do some epic in state road trips or have bonfires by the beach. i think itd be sick to be surrounded by all the simple things i love.
When it comes to my love lifeâŚ. Erm⌠i definitely can be attracted SO easily but im quick to find icks tbh. I dont think i fall in love easily but i definitely get high on the possibility of it. Lets just say im hard to get and hard to want đ My ideal type is someone whos athletic and good at math and is FINE AF. My lovr language is quality time (i LOVE ft) so someone whos willing to do stuff w me is a plus. I think i also like someone who can match my speed and humor bc i hate miscommunication and awkwardness
Thanku sm if u decide 2 do my req! âď¸âď¸
Hello there fellow darling >:)
As for your request, I would say I found just the right manz for you, but i didn't, so work with them a bit and they'll be vibing with u in no time(ă
ďšă
)
So let's go
.
.
.
AL HAITHAM
Smart collected calm and rational, just to balance you out
introvert x extrovert
He's definitely impressed by your carefree attitude, and often gets dragged into your small adventures, he might complain around a bit but he doesn't mind as much as he says he does
Hes confused as to how you have the energy to go out to parties and surfing and everything, he's just way too tired to even think about such things, so he'll prefer to watch you from the distance, in the comfort of a chair and a good book
Listen listen, I know I know, he's pissy and awkward, but I like to think he wouldn't be like that in a relationship, and is actually very good at communication and explaining his struggles and emotions
It might take him a bit to trust you but when he does, he's a good partner
He might not be able to match your humour, but he can match your speed, he's very efficient.
And if that relationship doesn't work out, do try with kaveh, because that could work out more (and yes i did just recommend to get with with your matchups roommate)
MR.RATIO
Nerd x his cool partner
This one is more to match your vibe kind off
He's a sassy and confident dude
He'll definitely be a fan of your bitchy attitude , he likes dealing with bests
Can match your energy, occasionally, sometimes not sometimes yes, but most of the time he'll just follow you around and watch you do your hobbies and interests while reading something
Cold colour dressed boyfriend x summer dressed partner, just perfection
He's an ambivert after all, so he can keep up with your trips and enjoyments, but sometimes will distance himself off to a corner to recharge his energy
Generally he's the first that came to mind when I saw your request so consider it fate

ĐŚŃŃкваŃĐ° на Ń. ĐаНиПаниŃĐ° / The church of Kalimanitsa village
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/f88ab9cfffd9b68d93dda60835f62c29/5bd739fa03998333-ae/s540x810/231c6edbb23a59eaf69350ac2005e4f85e795223.jpg)
If you want to go off the beaten path, and maybe remember the impermanence of everything, go south of the Ogosta reservoir and there youâll find the last remaining echo of Kalimanitsa.
The unfinished church, now in ruins and overtaken by nature, is all that remains. Kalimanitsa was never a large village. At itâs recorded peak in 1984, it numbered roughly 470 people. The village traces its origin to Roman times - remains of a villa and several workshops were uncovered, as well as a graveyard. The following inhabitants were likely nomadic or at least uninterested in more permanent architecture, and thereâs scarce evidence of their livelihood. At a point, the village was inhabited by Turks, as evidenced by two Turkish graveyards - one combined with the old Roman one.
Following the wars and ethnic tension in the 1870s - 1900s, the Turkish villages sold or abandoned their property, and the village changed ownership once again. A Bulgarian graveyard came about, and joined the centuries of dead villagers.
Huddled between abandoned Roman mines, and four graveyards - Roman, Turkish, and Bulgarian - the village existed until 1986. The inhabitants were removed, along with the villagers from Zhivovtsi, to make way for what would become the Ogosta reservoir.
The reservoir was built but the territory of Kalimanitsa was never reached.

I'm almost 100% sure it's actually Catholic but I didn't find much information about it#the structure of the church itself is just... very unusual for an Orthodox church.

Growth Spurt
Jedediah Smith x Reader
Fandom: Night at the Museum
Summary: When a battle breaks out at the Smithsonian, you need all the help you can get. Your magic, however, has a mind of its own.
Note: Takes place during NATM 2. Iâm a little out of my comfort zone on this one, so let me know what you think lol. I might be willing to write a part 2...?
Warnings: None?
Word Count: 1.3k
Reader is: Female
This was bad. Very, very bad. At the moment, you were in Washington D.C. Ahkâs brother was crazy, apparently, and he was recruiting all of the powerful villains he could possibly assemble, and he wanted to, basically, use the tablet to rule the world. Add to this the fact that he had captured Jed and stuck him in an hourglass.
Add to THAT the fact that he had snatched your family amulet from around your neckâŚyou figured the man must have a death wish. If only he knew what he was messing with.
And yet, the forces he had assembled were too great for you to comfortably overpower without the rest of your friends present, so you figured it was best to keep your powers a secret, even if only to preserve the element of surprise.
âYou got this, partner. I know you do.â Jed put his little hands against the glass, his eyes sad, but hopeful. âIâll be fine. Go.â
âButââ
âGo!â
âCome on,â Larry gave your arm a tug, and though your eyes lingered on poor little Jed, trapped there in the glass, you followed after Larry.
It was an odd friendship you shared with Jed. He flirted with you, you laughed. It was impossible. He was about an inch and a half tall. And yet, the flirting never stopped and he never hesitated to remind you of your beauty, especially when you doubted yourself the most. You were powerful and he admired you for that, but he also loved your laugh, your smileâŚhe knew it was silly and that there was no chance of something serious between the two of you, but that didnât seem to prevent him from tryingâŚ
Amelia caught up with the two of you easily and you caught her up on the situation at hand.
You checked in with a Theodore Roosevelt without a body, but he didnât have much to contribute to the situation. Neither did the Thinker. And so, the three of you headed out across the campus in search for answers. If not, Jedâs hour in that hourglass would be his last.
âSo, this cowboy friend of yours, are the two of youâŚ?â Amelia asked.
âAre we what? Dating?â
âYes, that. You care about him, that much is clear.â
âI mean, yeah, but it just wouldnât work out.â
âAnd why not?â
âHeâs a miniature.â Larry explained. âHeâs about two inches tall.â
âOh!â She laughed. âWell, that would complicate things, now wouldnât it?â
âYou can say that again.â You thought for a moment. âHey, werenât there some Einsteins in the Air and Space Museum? I bet theyâd be able to help.â
Larry snapped. âGood thinking.â
So, after a brief chat with the Einsteins, the three of you took the Wright Brothersâ plane and crashed it through the window of the building Kahmunrah had set up base in. Amelia ran to get help and you hopped off of the plane and took refuge behind a pillar, watching as Larry argued with Kahmunrah, wracking your brain for something, anything, some spell that would work to get Jed out of that hour glass.
And then it clicked.
It was a longshot, and you knew that, but if it workedâŚ
As soon as Larry got the hourglass, you called out, âOver here!â
âSparkle Fingers!â Jed lit up.
Larry threw the hourglass to you and you caught it, flipping it so the side Jed was trapped in was on top.
âSeize her!â Kahmunrah shouted.
You booked it as fast as you could down the hall and around a corner, listening as Kahâs guards passed, and once they were a safe distance away, you exhaled a long breath.
âI knew you wouldnât leave me in there.â Jed smiled softly up at you. âAlright, whatâs the plan?â
âWell, thereâs something my grandmother used to say. She said magic is really very simple; you just have to want something and then let yourself have it.â
âSoâŚ?â
âHold still.â You told him, your power festering around your fingertips. You flicked it down and the purple rays shined through the glass, straight onto Jed.
âHey, what is that?â Jed asked, somewhat fearful. âWhat did you do? I feelâŚweird.â
You bent down and set the hourglass on the floor, taking a few steps back and bracing.
Jed groaned, and then, all at once, the hourglass around him exploded as he grew to human size. He looked down at himself, holding his hands in front of his face as he moved his fingers. He kicked the pieces of the hourglass aside with his foot and looked up at you, his face awash in awe. âHoly smokes, Sparkle Fingers! I didnât know you had it in you.â
You stared up at him, your eyes wide. You gulped. âNeither did I.â
âWell, I hope youâve got some more in you. I have a feeling this night is far from over.â
You chuckled, âMe too.â
***
Once the battle was over and the dust had settled, Jed walked straight up to you, a nervous look on his face, his usual confidence dwindled now that he was standing face to face with you after all of this time.
âIâŚdonât know how much longer your spell is gonna last, so Iâve gotta do this now.â He said, taking off his hat and handing it to Larry, who was, understandably, shocked at the scene unfolding before him. Jed grabbed you by the hips and tugged you into a kiss, his lips exploring yours without hesitation. You kissed him back, your arms winding around the back of his neck, pulling him closer.
The rest of the museum exhibits, who had seen your relationship with Jed grow over the years cheered alongside your new friends, and when the kiss ended, Jed leaned his forehead against yours, smiling softly. His warm breath fanned across your cheeks.
He chuckled, âYou have no idea how long Iâve wanted to do that.â
âBelieve me, the feeling is mutual.â
âOh!â He said, suddenly remembering something. He reached into his pocket and held up your amulet. âI believe this is yours.â
Your eyes widened and you stared at it. You were sure it had been lost when Kahmunrah had been pushed into the portal, but here it was, in perfect shape.
âYouâŚhow did you get it back?â You asked as Jed fastened the chain around your neck.
âLetâs just say Octavius and I have a few tricks up our sleeves.â He shrugged. âSpeaking ofâŚâ
Octavius popped over the top of Jedidiahâs chest pocket. âHello!â
âHi, Oct.â You chuckled.
âAt some point, I hope you feel so inclined to try that spell out on me.â Octavius said, causing you to smile. âIf only to broaden my horizons.â
âWhen we get back to New York? Absolutely.â You promised.
Larry looked to Amelia. âSpeaking of, Amelia, can you fly us home?â
âCertainly, Mr. Daley. It would be my honor.â Amelia nodded, grinning at the sight of you standing next to Jed.
He took your hand and pulled it to his lips, his fingers intertwining with yours. The whole flight back to New York, his arm wouldnât leave your waist, and once you were finally back and inside the museum, Teddy had to do a double-take.
âJedediah, my boy, is that you?â
âHad a growth spurt.â Jed shrugged, helping Octavius out of his pocket so he could get downstairs with the others. âAnd I feel like itâs gonna wear off soonâŚâ
âYeahâŚâ You felt it, too. Your power slowly leaving him and you couldnât do anything but watch as he shrank about an inch. And then another.
âThink I could get one more kiss for the road?â Jed asked.
You leaned forward and captured his lips with yours, kissing him one last time before the magic wore off, and when you pulled away, he shrank the rest of the way, back down to his normal size.
âThanks for the adventure, Sparkle Fingers.â He saluted up at you from his spot on the floor.
âSee you tomorrow?â
He winked. âWouldnât miss it for the world.â

BENNETT
First of all, how dare u
This boy already has a chaotic life for you to arrive and making it worse.
But being honest, it wasnât intentional, just like always.
Besides heâs a kid. The chaos of a kid + chaos of his bad luck, I mean- how were you not supposed to meet him?
That day was really strange, for the very first time the chaos wasnât attracted by you, but you were attracted to chaos. Like a moth following a lantern on the street, something that you felt like you had to do, some kind of childish curiosity that guide your way to find Bennett in the middle of his adventure.
Poor boy was charging his pyro attack to max until a barrel exploded near him, he flew in the air waiting for a rough landing before his trajectory sent him where you were standing, still looking for the origin of that uneasy sensation of curiosity.
Luckily for him you could see his shadow just in time to react. You looked up because of the strange silhouette on the ground next to you and there he was, surrounded by a cloud of smoke and fire, with his screams getting louder and louder as he falls.
You trapped him in your arms, with the situation turning even more strange when the first thing he said was ânice catch!â with the bright smile of his.
Like if his hair on fire wasnât a big deal.
Itâs raining men ig
Before you could ask anything, a crowd of angry hilichurls appeared from the same direction where Bennett came at first.
The white haired boy jumped off from your arms and tried to grasp your hand to run away together, but instead you pulled him near and then behind you before rising your hand to the front, pointing the stampede of furious creatures about to reach you both.
Not even a leaf fell from a tree before the hilichurls stopped, all of them felt your presence immediately, the primitive sensation of danger that meant a silent threat. Following the message that another camp of them told long ago, âget away from that strangerâ.
Bennett was surprised, kind of scared at least. He wasnât sure about how to call that feeling.
Are you a beast tamer?! Maybe an adventurer that discovered a secret about hilichurlâs behavior! Wait- where are you going? Donât leave him behind, the doubt wonât let him sleep tonight!
You explained to him that it was dangerous for both to be near each other (more dangerous for him than for you), still you needed to get away. To protect Bennett and the other adventurers that were exploring nearby.
But why? He was so excited about meeting someone who could react that fast and precise! Like the heroes in the legends!
Please show him your ways, heâs begging you, how can you be rude to Bennett? That literally illegal.
When he heard that there was a God of Chaos exploring all over Teyvat like an errant he connected two points (even if there wasnât a single thing to connect in first place).
Youâre like him!
Hello ?? Youâre literally ?? the most qualified to be part of Bennyâs Adventure Team ??
Negative plus negative is positive, isnât it? Maybe if you roam near Bennett his bad luck can collide with your chaos to neutralize each other!
You told him that you were leaving after that short conversation, but in reality you just hide from his sights and followed him from behind.
That kid really put you on your nerves, running into danger without knowing. Was that what Zhongli have to deal with every time you visit Liyue?
The old man really deserves an apology.
Youâre not doing this an habit, of course not! Youâre the all mighty God of Chaos, the ultimate troublemaker! How was even possible to think about wanting to protect a human just because he has bad luck? Thatâs ridic-
âWatch out!â You had to abandoned your hiding spot to reach Bennett again, pulling him away from the place where a bunch of hunterâs traps were. âBarbatos, why all your children have to be like this?âŚâ You whispered for yourself, actually waiting for a answer, maybe a little too much because you didnât free Bennett. His feet were just barely touching the ground.
âOh, itâs you! Hello again!â
Enough of babysitting, thatâs it, both of you are heading back to Mondstadt. This boy is a danger for himself, who allowed him to be an adventurer in first place?
After abandoned him in front of the cityâs bridge you turn back to the forest, believing that it was the end, even if in the process your chaos took the life of some pigeons nearby.
Next morning you were sleeping peacefully on the branches of a huge old tree, feeling the wind of your bard friend greeting you from the distance.
Then a storm started out of nowhere; your fault.
And almost immediately you heard a cheerful voice below you, calling your name like a lost child searching for their parents.
As Bennett climbs the tree to talk with you a lightning strikes near enough to make both of you jump because of the surprise, falling from the branch and meeting each other on the mud below.
âSorry, my bad.â Bennett and you said at the same time, to later laugh because of that.
It seems that both are more alike than you would expect
âˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâš âˇâšâˇâš âˇâšâˇâš âˇâš âˇ
TARTAGLIA
How do I explain that this guy already knew about you-
As you may suspect, yes, his only reason of wanting to meet you was to fight you.
The first step for taking the thrones of gods is beating one of the youngest, isnât it? It would be a good start, and youâd be also one of the best opponents he ever fought! The only thing still needed was a way to make you accept his challenge.
Tartagliaâs first try was by attacking you without hesitation, not even a warning, just shooting an arrow for behind and waiting for you to counter. And yes, that didnât go as planned, the rope of his bow snapped even before aiming.
It wouldnât be that easy, the distance is always boring for a fight, why not just attacking directly?
Because you learned from Morax that you must not hurt mortals; the reason of your trip was for appreciate the humanâs life, to understand why you exist, to have a reason to not end with everything that crosses your path.
To convince yourself that youâre not only destruction.
But it was hard to stay calm if he constantly provokes you to fight back. Always dodging, always running away, always breaking his weapons.
Barely holding yourself to not to break his Vision at this point.
Dodging one of his attacks again you ended up on top of a nearby structure by the side of the road, watching him from above and begging for him to stop for once.
Tartaglia clicked his tongue in annoyance, you would escape again. He was as sick as you of that senseless hunt. Maybe was the stress what impede him to think wisely, because his next strategy was like a death wish.
The water blades disappeared from his hands and, for the first time, he had a casual talk with you. Smiling and waving his hands to look relaxed.
Then he mentioned the incident with Osial, a event that almost became a tragedy. And the only reason you knew about that was because Morax told you about it, about his contract and the reason why he left his position as an Archon the next time you visited him.
It was your fault, isnât it?
â⌠what?â
"As you heard! The conditions for summoning Osial was ideal, bringing back a sealed god filled with hatred and hungry for destruction couldn't have been possible if you hadn't been around Liyue that day.â His hand lifted to pointing at you, also smiling as your expression turned into a concerned one. âOh, our God of Chaos, you were successfully satiated as the catastrophe filled the ocean! Bring us back the destruction, because it's the only thing you ever knew!â
He was obviously just mocking you, but still Tartaglia managed to actually make you think about it.
Your fault. Your chaos.
And even with that, Rex Lapis didnât seal you or tried to eradicated you like the burden that you are for every nation.
Itâs just a matter of time before you destroy all humane existence when you get bored of your fantasy of not being a spirit of chaos.
An infinity of negative and dark thoughts began to fill your mind.
It was sad, it was so sad that the erosion already began to have an effect on you being so young. You were afraid, you were concerned, the stress ate you inside while you tried to convince yourself that it wasnât like he said.
Your mind collapsed, and you left the wrath take the control for the first time in centuries.
A fight? Thatâs all he wanted? Easy, thatâs easy, just kill him and everything will end. His annoying voice wonât torment you ever again, his words wonât hurt ever again.
Itâs easy, so easy. Mortal life is so easy to end.
Heâll defeat the gods, heâll take their thrones and will witness the worldâs end in the final battle he planned since his first encounter with the traveler.
But that day Tartaglia noticed the difference between your strength, it wasnât huge, neither significant enough. But you were stronger, and itâs well known that wrath and despair can provide extra energy when itâs needed.
The perception of time disappeared, the world did too. Nature, men creation, everything will succumb against chaos, existence itself will be reduce to ashes.
Thatâs why you exist, to make sure thereâs not too much heroes trying to make the nations a boring place. You just need to accept it!
ButâŚ
âThereâs no other way?â
The question sparkle inside your mind, bringing you back out of nowhere. Thereâs a lot of irregularities in the ground nearby, the land was broke for something that impacted with an inhuman strength, even the structure where you step on top was gone, just the remain of a building was left.
And your hands were holding something bland and soft, the warm sensation on your palms and the strange movements caught your attention to look down. Your hands were strangling Tartaglia.
From the other side his hands were trying to remove yours, his strength was minimal, not even able of closing his fingers around your wrist.
A expression full of pain and regretting of his decisions, question by question filling his mind while the air became harder to get.
A broken bow, his Vision has been thrown away. Now it was a human versus a god.
You took a step back, afraid of what you were about to do. You have to stay calm and quiet forever? To prevent catastrophe, to bring peace to mortals? Whoâs the one you have to blame for creating you? How you could think that coexisting with humans was possible? Even if you say that you donât want to make any problems you would stay near them.
âJust⌠leave me alone.â
Was the last thing you said, a whisper that wanted to apologize for a whole eternity, a regret that couldnât be forgot. And then you left that place, escaping one last time.
But wait for him, Tartaglia thought, he didnât need your compassion.
Sooner or later he would have his revenge.
âˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâš âˇâšâˇâš âˇâšâˇâš âˇâš âˇ
SCARAMOUCHE
Finally! With Shogun Raidenâs gnosis on his possession and the all mighty hero of Mondstadt weakened thereâs no way things can go wrong for him!
A little delay in his plans, but still a smile remained on his face. Kunikuzushi couldnât wish for anything else right now.
But you already know what is going to happen next.
In this world exist Murphyâs Law?, because anything that could go wrong went wrong after he claim for victory. Even being far away of the factory it seemed that the karma reached him immediately.
He just got his guard down for a couple seconds, and then, whoshh. Now you see it, now you donât. The gnosis disappeared from his pocket, not here, not there. The annoyance filled his chest and then a irritated growl came from his throat.
What in the world happened?
Scaramouche looked to a huge tree in front of him, and there you were. On your favorite place to sit, above from everyone else in a branch. Holding the gnosis as the board piece it looks like, playing throwing it up a little and then catching it again and again.
Who you think you are to act that carefree on his presence? If you wanted to die so bad then you could just have asked for it.
Even if he called you and made a question first you counter it with another one, what was he doing with that thing?
You were sick of those who defy the gods thanks to his âworkmateâ.
Scaramouche ordered you to give him the gnosis back, threats and insults came out from his mouth as a distraction; in reality, he was just ready to set the first hit from behind.
But something made him stop just in time when you talked again.
âI donât care what you are planning, but if it involves the ones who Iâm in debt with, you will surely fail.â
âAnother clairvoyant? Hah, your type are more words than an actual subject matter, but I have to admit it, theyâre also very skill to escape.â
âIt was a warning.â You said, throwing again the gnosis, this time to his direction.
Scaramouche reacted in time to rise his arms but in midair something caught the chess-like piece before his fingers. Surprising him again and making the irritation event more unbearable.
It was a tanuki. The same that looked behind a second before running even deeper in the forest.
The chaos isnât necessary a huge disaster; a little accident, an inconvenient, a failure, it depends time and place to be considered like a catastrophe.
Scaramouche had a killer gaze just for you in his face, in respond you smiled at him, then covered your mouth with both hands to fake surprise.
âWhat a shame! Better luck next time, gods defier.â Your laugh could be heard all over the woods, like a spectral echo that chased him his way to get back the gnosis.
He got it back after a few minutes of a stressful walk through the forest, found the tanuki dancing on a stone before disappearing again. When he got closer he found that piece, making sure it was the real one and not just another trick.
The following days he received endless reports of Fatui soldiers and entire camps being reduced to rubble aside lost or destroyed materials; it was a higher level sabotage done by who they said was someone of relatively young appearance in strange clothes, the one that enjoyed staring at them until something goes wrong.
Nobody could defeat them, not even get closer. And with that, Scaramouche knew they were talking about you.
Was that what you meant with âwarningâ? Who are you exactly? Not even holding a Vision, how could you⌠?
A quick order was enough to deliver him a book full of ancient legends, part of the Fatui private collection. Texts that were lost and the world had forgotten, his only hope was that you weren't exactly mortal, and if that was the case they could take advantage of your nature.
Hah, he found you.
God of Chaos, a body sculptured by the blood and bodies of the ones who died in middle of the wars. At first they were just a being full of anger and affinity for taking the life of every living being on earth, until the same hand that created them gave them a human heart of their own. Made without any prior basis, without being the remains of the deceased. Something one of a kind, the mortal heart of a god.
When human emotions filled the vessel they were released into the world, to mourn over the spilled blood and to know how everything of their existence originates. Born from the red that stained the fields and being the bud that seemed withered, the same that now has the deepest roots ever found.
Hmm, that brings back some memoriesâŚ
But hey, that vital energy could be useful.
Donât be surprised if one day you wake up chained and feeling dizzy as Scaramouche drains your life. You know what? Just wait for it! Running away as you did with that idiot wonât work this time.
Every possibility can be foreseen, every inconvenience can be solved. And if you think that youâre an exception then youâre stupider than you look.
âˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâš âˇâšâˇâš âˇâšâˇâš âˇâš âˇ
GANYU
Bold of you assume that Zhongli didnât introduce you to everyone the first time you travel to Liyue.
The difference between your meeting was that it had to be really short. Ganyu is always busy so you couldnât know her better before her duty called for her again.
Obviously you heard a lot of stories of her childhood thanks to Cloud Retainer. The day she knew about it Ganyu avoided you, next week she apologized with you about it. It was very rude, please pardon her.
Such a big sister vibes ngl
An Adeptus working that hard to humanâs matters. It was so cool to follow her from a significant distance to see how was her routine.
If you could only live that peacefully near humans without causing any problem! What a dream! The envy was killing you.
Ganyu didnât mind about you stalking her, the feeling of a companion was always present and she also knew that you had to keep some distance from everybody to not cause any accident. She appreciated your consideration.
Until a soldier from the millelith arrested you for harassment, wait- youâre innocent! Donât get closer, hold on! Hold on!
The handcuffs broke almost immediately, though.
When Ganyu resolved the misunderstanding she hold your hands to apologize again, it had to be really stressful to be aware of any chaos you could create accidentally.
What if you⌠wait for her on the surroundings of the city?
Please, she have a lot of work, donât interrupt her, sheâs begging you.
Ganyu thought you heard her request, but she knew that you were just hiding when a window opened out of nowhere and a lot of documents flew away in the room.
You appeared hanging upside down from the other side of the window, jumped down and entered to pick up the documents. You hand her over all the pages and then you leave through the space on the wall.
â⌠Iâll be in Huaguang Stone Forest⌠â
âThank you.â
Even though you both agreed that you would return to the stone forest, she couldn't help but feel guilty as the hours passed, did you feel like a nuisance? Maybe she should apologize. Again.
When another successful day at work ended, she realized that repeating the same words over and over was not the best way to show her regret. Thatâs why a better idea formed in his head as she approached the abode of the rest of Adeptus.
Ganyu found you being scolded by Mountain Shaper for unintentionally releasing the trespassing intruders along with other creatures from their amber prisons.
After rescuing you again, she was able to propose her idea to you. With a calm and charming voice she asked you if you would like to learn about Liyue's traditions from the human perspective.
Sure, Zhongli could tell you about the beginning of traditions and festivities, but the way to celebrate them and pay tribute to the Adeptus was something that only a person who had lived among mortals for years could explain to you.
Your eyes shone in gratitude but no words really came out of your lips, kind of embarrassed you said some nonsensical things and then another amber cracked when you brushed its surface.
Mountain Shaper kicked you out without thinking twice.
But hey! The next day your classes on Culture from the Mortal Perspective began! A quick but calm walk through Liyue that got spread when a bunch of kids recognized you.
How could they not remember the person who plays with them every time they get a chance?
Ganyu sat by the side of the road on an empty bench, watching you scamper the children who seemed happy at your mere presence. Like the occasional accidents of a child, the curious and outlandish nature cannot be controlled, only accepted.
âˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâšâˇâš âˇâšâˇâš âˇâšâˇâš âˇâš âˇ
CHONGYUN
Donât move! The future best exorcist in the world, Chongyun, will put an end to your legacy of misdeeds and pranks! No evil specter that causes bad luck will survive to-!
Just by lightly tapping with your fingertips you were able to break the seal of the talismans that surrounded you out of nowhere. Pushing back the boy who was convinced that he had beaten his yang.
how dare u interrupt him.
Another of Xingqiuâs pranks? Isnât this going a little to far? He hadnât learn about not believing everything his friend says smh.
Letâs just mess with him a little.
âMeasure your words, human. In the presence of the God of Chaos, the first thought that should run through your mortal instinct is to beg for your life, since those who dare to defy them will be punished and displayed as a trophy in the infinity of the abyss from which the catastrophe came out.â
You took a few steps closer to him, while Chongyun kept backing away. The scene was so dramatic that you had to stop when the boy summoned his sword.
Haha jk, nice to meet u.
It's nice to know that there are still such dedicated exorcists out there.
But wait-, so you're not an evil spirit? A God? Why is there a god causing accidents all over Liyue!? That makes no sense! If you think you can deceive him by pretending to be a deity then he shall punish you severely for disrespecting them!
After a detailed explanation of your identity, Chongyun's mood plummeted again due to another failure as an exorcist.
He sat silently on a rock and remained silent, his expression showed so well his disappointed that it made you feel like it was your fault.
Ohno, a sad human child, your weakness-
At the end you sat next to him to listen to what he had to say.
Did he really want to see a spirit so badly? Those things are horrible, wearing strange clothes and yelling all the time, buagh! The thought of it gives you chills. But there's nothing you can do, after all they are drawn to your chaos.
When you finished talking so indifferently about what you lived through from day to day, you looked back at Chongyun, finding his expressive eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.
Are you a magnet of evil? Chaos and destruction? Demons and spirits alike appear wherever you go?
Then you stopped him, it wasn't something to take so lightly; thereâs also the chaos of the butterfly effect, natural disasters, unforeseen events, influencing the mood of evil people, losing your favorite pair of socks-
But you attract spirits, right!? You have to help him! How can you say ânoâ to that face?
The next day he took you to one of his commissions as an exorcist, a house that had numerous reports from its previous tenants. He stayed outside and asked you to come in first, obviously you refused, if your chaos broke something inside you would have more problems besides the ghosts of the house.
He insisted a little more, it worked. Now you were waiting to feel the presence of some spirit trying to attack you. You could feel it, their energy was spread throughout the building, but still there was no movement. Neither hostility, neither terror, just the presence of a soul.
When it was Chongyun's turn to enter you explained this to him, his yang was also easy to perceive, you could describe it as a blizzard in the middle of the storm. But despite this, that presence didnât react to his energy, nothing changed.
Then you understand it, your energies neutralized each other. Your chaos and his yang ended in a stalemate that went nowhere.
âI was really hoping to see an actual spirit and not only stay still in the middle of the entrance⌠â
âWell, I can still curse you. Want to try?â Chongyun crossed his arms, annoyed for your jokes.
âMaybe I should exorcize you instead⌠â
âOhh, so the little exorcist wants a deity to be his personal dummy? Letâs make a pact then. Promise me your soul.â
âI-I thought you said you werenât actually a demon!â
When you stroked his hair he couldn't help but think about how much he still had to learn, so much so that even the gods were taking pity on him.

Family Advice | Dick Grayson & Damian Wayne, G, 1.6k
Summary: Texts between the Wayne familyâs oldest and youngest. Set during eps #23 and #24 of Batman: Wayne Family Adventures, with dialogue directly taken from them.
Read on Ao3
A/N: Please be kindâthis is the first time Iâve ever posted for anything DC-related /o\ Thank you to Crizz for the beta~! Special shout out to the Manga Hoes server + anyone else whoâs put up with me in the past two weeks since I started reading this webtoon lol.
All other mistakes are mine. Alternative formatting found on Ao3.
đŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚđŚ
Dick sees the message late one evening while out on patrol. Heâs just finished tying up a couple of street thugs to a lamppost for GCPD to deal with when his phone buzzes.
From: Damian (9:13 PM) Richard, I need... assistance.
Dick immediately frowns, jaw clenching. Damian never asks for helpâheâs a lot like Bruce in that wayâso if heâs contacting Dick about something, Dick knows itâs capital-S Serious.
From: Dick (9:16 PM) Hey Damian, what is it? Is everything alright at the manor? Did something happen on a mission? Is everyone okay?
From: Damian (9:17 PM) Yes, everything is fine at the manor. No, nothing happened on a mission. Yes, everyone is okay.
Heâs about to go into another round of questions when Damian sends another message.
From: Damian (9:17 PM) I need assistance for...
From: Damian (9:18 PM) Personal reasons.
He furrows his brows.
That... was not what he was expecting.
But if he doesnât have to worry about anyoneâs safety, then heâs got a role to play as the oldest brother.
From: Dick (9:18 PM) Sure! Whatâs up, buddy?
Dick watches the dots appear and disappear as Damian apparently types and retypes his answer. After waiting for two minutes, he hears a car rolling up down the road.
From: Dick (9:21 PM) Hey Damian, I gotta do something really quick, but let me know whatâs going on and Iâll reply soon!
Tucking his phone away, Dick jovially announces, âHey guys, Gothamâs Finest will take care of you now so Iâll be going!"
He waves the crooks goodbye, flashing a grin he knows will only annoy them (he canât help himself over a job well done), before jumping away and lifting himself onto a nearby balcony. He then makes his way back to his apartment.
He lets Babs know that heâs done for the night and heading home, and by the time he climbs through his apartment window, Damianâs left a dozen messages. As he scrolls through, he heads over to his room after starting the coffee maker.
From: Damian (9:24 PM) My teacher says I should try making friends since the other students find me intimidating.
Dick snorts, peeling his mask off his face. Intimidating is one way to describe Damianâhellion is another.
From: Damian (9:24 PM) Of course, this is absurd because Iâm a delight!
From: Damian (9:25 PM) And I *do* have friends! It would be an insult to Jon if I didnât consider him one.
He snorts again, shimmying out of his costume and into some old gym clothes.
From: Damian (9:26 PM) However... I may admit that being friendly to others is not my strongest skill. So, I told father about it today and he recruited Todd, Brown, and Thomas to assist me.
From: Damian (9:26 PM) As you can imagine, it was completely unhelpful.
That sounds about right, Dick thinks as he heads back to the kitchen. Family of the (self-proclaimed) greatest detectives they may be, their main role model for relationships is Bruce âI work aloneâ Wayne and, well...
Heâs not perfect at them, to say the least.
Dick may love that man like a father but looking to Bruce for any sort of relationship adviceâromantic or platonicâprobably isnât the best idea.
And Dick doesnât even want to think about how dysfunctional some of his own relationships have been, much less think about his siblingsâ.
Still, Damian came to him for help, so the least he can do is listen.
From: Damian (9:27 PM) Todd said he broke his friend out of prison.
From: Damian (9:28 PM) Brown suggested I find common interests with others, but apparently swords and world domination arenât appropriate.
Dick smiles, grabbing a mug from the cabinet to pour himself some coffee.
From: Damian (9:31 PM) Father said animals might be a better topic, but Father also said Iâm not allowed to join the tennis team when Thomas suggested I join a club so I think heâs just spoiling my fun.
Dick raises an eyebrow, walking into the living room with his phone in one hand and mug in another. Joining a sports team sounds like a good outlet for Damianâwhy did Bruce discourage it? Thereâs probably a good reason, but it still strikes a bit strange for Dick. He drops onto the couch with a grunt, taking a sip of his coffee as he continues reading Damianâs messages.
From: Damian (9:33 PM) (Oh, I should mention that someone on the tennis team insulted Fatherâs honor. I had planned to destroy him on the court until Father said I couldnât join anymore.)
And there it is.
From: Damian (9:34 PM) Father, unsurprisingly, was the least helpful. Do you know what he said, Dick?
From: Damian (9:34 PM) He said, âtrust your instincts.â
From: Damian (9:35 PM) Even Brown found the idea ridiculous!
Dick laughs out loud, unable but to agree with that. Asking a kid raised by assassins to trust his instincts is probably not the greatest advice Bruce couldâve given.
From: Damian (9:36 PM) And so, because my family is somehow filled with both the smartest and *dumbest* people I know, I decided to ask you for advice instead.
From: Damian (9:40 PM) Reply when youâre home safe. I will be waiting.
He smiles softly when he hits the end of Damianâs messages.
Heâs touched that Damianâs comfortable enough with him to share his day so casually, even happier that his kid brother is asking him for help over normal kid troubles like how to make friends instead of crime-related emergencies. Calling their ragtag team of vigilante heroes his family and the sentiment that Dick gets home safely are nice bonuses that Dick gladly takes a screenshot of.
Taking a swig of his coffee, he thinks it over. Damianâs a good kid. Maybe a bit overwhelming at times, and perhaps meaner than he intends at others, but overall heâs a kind boy who just has issues letting his guard down. Not really surprising, considering their familyâs lifestyle as masked and caped crusaders, plus the fact that he was raised to become a living weapon until Bruce took him in.
But beneath all of that, Damian Wayne is a good kid. Heâs protective of those he cares about. Heâs headstrong in his beliefs and isnât afraid to speak for himself. Heâs gentle towards those who need it (though, admittedly, theyâre usually animals since heâs not quite old enough yet to deal with the victims the Bat Family rescues on a regular basis). He likes to draw. He loves his pets and his family.
Dick knows if given the chance, Damian is someone who would be a great friend.
After all, it happened with Jon. Surely Damian can do it again.
From: Dick (10:01 PM) Just got home and read through all your messages!
From: Dick (10:02 PM) Sounds like you had a good talk with everyone lol.
From: Damian (10:02 PM) Very funny, Richard. You *know* how theyâre like.
From: Dick (10:03 PM) They just wanna help, buddy.
From: Dick (10:04 PM) But yeah, I know. Haha.
From: Damian (10:05 PM) So, your thoughts?
He answers honestly.
From: Dick (10:06 PM) Be yourself!
From: Damian (10:07 PM) I was hoping youâd be more helpful, Richard.
From: Dick (10:07 PM) And I am!
From: Dick (10:09 PM) Iâm telling you kid, itâs the best way to make friends. A tried and true method, tooâjust ask the others!
From: Damian (10:11 PM) After todayâs useless talk, I donât want to.
From: Dick (10:12 PM) Lol, thatâs fair.
From: Damian (10:15 PM) Iâm going to sleep because I have class tomorrow. Iâll talk to you later, Dick.
From: Dick (10:17 PM) Good night, buddy. Let me know how things go tomorrow.
From: Damian (10:17 PM) Okay. Good night.

Dickâs eating lunch at a sub shop when Damian texts him the next day. He has his BLT in one hand and is scrolling through his phone with another when the notification pops up.
From: Damian (1:11 PM) I just made a fool of myself because I followed Fatherâs advice.
He hides his chortle by trying to cover it up with a cough.
From: Dick (1:11 PM) Why? What did you do?
From: Damian (1:12 PM) I blurted out that I own a cow to two boys next to me.
From: Dick (1:12 PM) LOL! Bruce told you to do that?
From: Damian (1:13 PM) No, he told me to talk about animals because I shouldnât talk about swords and world domination.
From: Dick (1:14 PM) Ah, gotcha.
From: Damian (1:15 PM) This isnât working.
Dick swallows a bite of his sandwich, setting it down before wiping his face with a napkin. Then, he picks up his phone to type with both hands.
From: Dick (1:16 PM) Just be yourself! Thatâs all that matters.
From: Damian (1:17 PM) Maybe I should follow Toddâs advice and break someone out of prison.
Heâs really glad he put his sandwich down because he hastily types back with frantic fingers, eyes growing slightly wide with concern.
From: Dick (1:17 PM) Please donât do that.
When Damian doesnât answer immediately, Dick assumes heâs busy with class (and hopefully not breaking someone out of prisonâDick wouldnât put it past him). Heâs about to leave the sub shop when his phone buzzes again.
From: Damian (1:23 PM) Mission accomplished. I think.
Dick beams, holding back the urge to whoop in celebration and pump a fist in the air.
From: Dick (1:23 PM) Good job, buddy! Knew you could do it!

Sands of Eon (1/2)
(A/N): Buckle your seatbelts, cause this is a long one! Read with sad music to really get in the mood. Cause I wrote this with sad music playing in the background lol.
âDo you have a wish, Xiao? Iâll write it on your lantern.â
âNo need. I donât have a lantern nor do I have the desire to make one.â He quickly shut down your offer, no sound of amusement or humor found in his tone. But unfortunately for him, you were used to his constant rejection and came prepared this time.
Grabbing another lantern from under the table, you pushed it towards him with a smile.
âWell, lucky for you, I already made you one.â you laughed, seeing his surprised reaction at the lantern in his hands. âNo need to thank me.â you added.
âI donât-â
You interrupted him before he could say no. âI already made it, and I donât need two wishes. And like I said, Iâll even write it for you if you want.â Seeing his hesitation, you offered him a deal. âIâll tell you mine, if you tell me yours.â
Xiao, knowing you werenât going to give up until he relented, nodded reluctantly.
You clapped your hands happily at his defeat.
âMy wish is to become someone who can protect the great and mighty Xiao!â you exclaimed, showing him your lantern.
  To become someone who can protect the great and mighty Xiao.
                                         - (Y/N)
The adeptus gave you a puzzled look after confirming for himself that you had indeed written the same wish verbatim, onto your lantern.
âWell, you protect Liyue, right? But who protects you?â you asked the yaksha. And you predicted that he would say something along the lines of ânot needing the protection of a mere humanâ or what not, so you chimed in again. âOf course, Iâm not as powerful as you are. So my protection will mostly be in the form of Almond Tofus and my company. And I'll always be here for you, whenever you need me.â
âI have no need of you, nor your company.â
You tried not to smile at the fact he didnât mention not needing Almond Tofus.
âIâm lonely. Youâre lonely. So we can be lonely together, then.â Shrugging, you changed the subject before he could retort back. âSo, whatâs your wish then?â
At the conversation returning back to the topic of his wish, he let out another sigh.
âHand me the brush, Iâll write it.â
As he silently wrote down his own wish on his lantern, you wondered whether he insisted on writing it himself because he was embarrassed to say his wish out loud. Or was it because he didnât like your handwriting? You figured it would most likely be the latter. But upon noticing the slight blush dusted onto his cheeks, you couldn't help but second-guess yourself.
And after a short moment later, he handed the writing utensil and lantern back to you.
âYou sure you donât want to come with me to release the lanterns?â you asked him, hopeful that maybe this year would be the year to finally convince the recluse man of joining the festivities. âWe can release it on the mountain, instead of in the city if you would feel more comfortable?â
âI would feel more comfortable staying here.â he replied firmly. His tone didnât give away any leeway of changing his mind, so you decided that the lanterns would have to do this year. But hey, at least he participated.
After gathering your things, you made your way down the steps of the inn, and into the direction of the road leading back to the city. You waved a goodbye up to Xiao, who just watched your retreating figure. It was only when you stopped walking to frantically wave at him, that he gave a half-hearted wave back. He probably breathed a sigh of relief at your absence, once you left his view. But still, the half-hearted action brought a smile to your lips, and it remained with you the rest of the way home.
Once the Lantern Rite festival ended, the Xiao lanterns disappeared as quickly as they had appeared.
You had been tempted to keep Xiao's lantern after the festival, knowing it was the first, but you hoped not the last, lantern Xiao had written a wish on. But the lanterns were meant to be released, not kept. And it wasn't hard to keep the wishes written on yours and Xiao's lanterns to your memory.
In the following days after the Lantern Rite festival, you spent your time contemplating how to go about making your lantern wish become a reality. But as you wracked your brain, continuously pondering over the problem, you were left with one resounding question.
What really could you do for Xiao?
You didnât have much to offer the yaksha. You were neither rich nor someone with immense power that could rival his. Your company, which you werenât even sure whether he enjoyed or not, was the only thing you had going for you. Well, that and making him Almond Tofus.
So then, nothing, it seemed.
You sure talked big for someone who had nothing to back it up with.
That was until one day, when you came across a certain object in a treasure chest in your adventures.
âItâd be best if you destroy that, and forget you ever saw it, (Y/N).â the archon responded to your question.
âWhy? Isnât it just another hourglass artifact?â
You figured asking Zhongli about the item would be your best bet. With how old he truly was, the Geo Archon had an immense knowledge of everything, and if anyone knew what the artifact was, it would have to be him.
âThatâs one of the artifacts that was lost during the Archon War. Itâs far more powerful than any used these days.â The funeral parlor owner took another sip of his tea, before continuing. âItâs infused with the raw power of a god, so it has special abilities.â
âLike?â
The man should've known that you werenât going to follow his advice from the start. He let out a defeated sigh, before elaborating further. âThere were rumors that the god who created that specific artifact had received the Sands of Eon from Time itself.â
âTime is a person- I mean a living being?!â
âAgain, just rumors.â he noted. âAnd supposedly, by infusing the artifact with his own power, it could bend the laws of time.â
Your eyes grew wide at the new information. âSo youâre saying this artifact could, in theory, turn back time.â
âIn theory, yes.â
How could such a powerful artifact have washed up shore and land into your hands?
You decided to ask him one last question, already getting a slight headache at the information just revealed.
âWhat happened to the god?â
âIt was said that the first and only time he used the piece was after watching his people massacred during the Archon War. He used it to save his people; warning them of the future events beforehand, buying them enough time to flee. Consequently, the price he paid for saving all his people was was at the cost of his own life.â
He left you with some parting final words as you left the funeral parlor, to sort out your thoughts.
âThere's always a price for changing the past, (Y/N).â
Your first thought had been to give the artifact to Xiao, allowing him to go back in time to when he made a contract with the evil god, Kubira, who used him as a bloodhound. But remembering the fate of the original owner of the artifact prevented you from doing so.
It was then you were reminded of your lantern wish.
To become someone who can protect the great and mighty Xiao.
This was the answer to your wish.
You could use it yourself, and stop Xiao from forming the contract with whatever means necessary. You made a promise to protect him and by doing this you would be able to. There would be no pain or suffering for him to endure if you were successful. And once you realized that this was the the only way to truly protect your friend, you knew there was no turning back.
You gave yourself a month to prepare. Reading up on everything there was to the Archon War to prevent a change into the outcome, with your sudden appearance in the past. It was also meant a month of pestering Zhongli; asking about anything that wasn't recorded or lost in Liyue's history. You researched everything you could about the evil god, Kubira, as well, in order to prevent the infamous past contract that sealed Xiao's fate.
And it was, perhaps, the first time you were ever thankful to have grown up alone. No close ties with anyone, no family to miss once you left. Sure you had friends, but they could continue to live on without you.
The only one person you realized that you would truly miss and regret leaving behind, was the same person you were going back into the past for. You wondered if he would be okay once you left. You were the only one who pushed through his constant rejection and intimidating demeanor to truly get to know him and to be able to call him a friend.
But if you were successful in changing the past, would he even be able remember you?
The night before your departure, you visited Xiao at the Wangshu Inn, with a bowl of his favorite dish.
The adeptus who didnât know a word about your plan, paused at the forlorn look you had as you watched him eat his food. It was already strange to him that you were just watching him, instead of asking him how his day was or telling him who you had met on your way over like always. And the forced way you nonchalantly brushed off your watering eyes as seasonal allergies confused him even more. Something was off about the way you were acting. And the question you proceeded to ask him was the icing on the cake.
âHey, Xiao. If I went missing for some time, would you miss me?â
If you had asked this in the first year you met him, he wouldâve probably responded with a relieved no. But currently, he remained silent at your question.
Had your efforts to befriend him pay off? Did you actually manage to squeeze into his heart, and make yourself a little home?
ââŚI would miss your Almond Tofus.â he replied after a long minute, paired with a straight face.
Well, it was better than a no.
During the early stages of your "friendship" with Xiao, the words, "get lost" were thrown in your direction every time you had come to visit. So to you, his current answer was certainly an improvement.
âIs it really that hard to say, âYes, (Y/N). I would miss you so much. Donât ever leave meâ ?â you drawled, trying not to laugh when he briefly choked on his food at your choice of words.
Gulping down his water, he cleared his throat loudly. âEhem. F-fine, I guess I would notice your absence.â
Sure, it wasnât the confession you were hoping for, but you would take it.
You gave him a small smile, turning your attention to the view from the top floor balcony.
Taking in a deep breath, you gathered up the courage to speak your next words.
âHey, Xiao.â
You looked at him with another smile, this one not quite reaching your eyes. You took a silent moment to memorize his face, down to every detail. When you reached his eyes, you tried to keep yourself from getting lost in the amber pools. But with one look at them, you failed miserably, falling straight into their depths. And with your undivided attention given to his eyes, you failed to notice the slight reddening of his cheeks.
âThank you for protecting Liyue. Thank you for being my friend. Thank you for being my first love. And most of all, thank you for always being there for me.â
You stood up quietly, holding onto the same bittersweet smile on your face as you neared him. And before he was given the chance to register your words, you quickly left a soft kiss on his cheek; disappearing down the stairs without another glance back.
Regaining his conscious a moment later, he was about to chase after you, knowing you couldnât have gone far. But a folded letter on the table in front of him distracted him momentarily, giving you enough time to escape.
Xiao,
I thought long and hard about what I could do for you after saying those big words about protecting you. And I think this is the best way to do that.Â
I know you wonât remember any of this once I come back, if I come back. You probably wonât even remember me. But thatâs okay. Iâll be fine, being the only one who remembers, if it means youâll have a better future. So donât let my efforts go to waste! Eat something other than Almond Tofu and snow. Make and surround yourself with friends. I hope I showed you that humans can be worthwhile friends too. And donât ever think that you deserve solitude, because you deserve so much more than that.Â
Thank you again for everything. I never felt alone when i was with you. Iâm still not even sure if you consider us friends, but your friendship meant the world to me. So Iâm going to have to insist that we are friends.
I donât have any regrets leaving. I lived and I loved thanks to you. So now itâs your turn.Â
I hope you can live your new life without any regrets or burdens weighing you down.
Love Always,
(Y/N).

(Cause I finally found an outfit I liked on the boy, menâs fashion isnât my strong suit,,, heh :) )
âSorry, is my mouth hung open?â he asked.
âYes, sir. Very much so,â she mocked.
Jason closed his mouth and outstretched his hand for Y/Nâs, cupping it with both hands and kissing the top of it.
âYou just look so lovely, Y/N.â
âAnd youâre chivalrous, Jay. Now, should we get going?â she asked, putting her free hand on top of his two.
âYes, letâs go,â he let one of his hands go of hers and lead her to the Porsche he brought with him, not intertwining his fingers with hers.
He opened the passengerâs side door and let Y/N get in, not letting go of her hand til the last moment he could hold it. He got in an turned on the radio,
It felt like a good night, for dancing in the moonlight,
In empty streets, well, everybody's got a reason why,
If we could only just get it right,
Maybe it will all work out like in the movies,
But I know Romeo must die before the ending,
With a final poison kiss delivered gently,
Because you don't get lucky twice, and that's the truth,
âSing to me sweet just like my memory,Â
If New York City Still moves me then Iâve found something real,
Iâll be okay, I could go on for days,
But I just donât have the courage that it takes to be real,
And even if itâs dark at least weâll be together,
Slowly sinking in the Earth to lay forever,
You better grab a hold and hold on for your life,
Because you donât get lucky twice,
No, you donât get lucky twice,â She sung with the tune.
Without the Bitter the Sweet Isnât as Sweet - Mayday Parade
âYou, you have the voice of an angel,â he said.
âItâs not that hard to mimic works of art with my voice.â
âDid you ever take singing lessons?â
âI did when I was younger, so I could sing French lullabies to my cousins.â
He placed a hand on her thigh as he drove them through the countryside of Gotham to Metropolis, taking the long way on what seemed like purpose. So he could encapsulate the moment in his memory for as long as he knew her and what she was to him. She was an adventure waiting to happen, a love story not yet written to tell for ages, a rock ânâ roll song written to please the masses in hidden corners of the world.
And to her, he was a masterwork of intertwining memories of pain, sadness, luck and beauty. A mind of complexity she was just waiting to dive into and see how it functioned. A story behind the white tuff of hair he had, why he was jacked to the masses if he was a book nerd. A story of his favourite book and his favourite sibling, his favourite trope, his love, his pain, him.
The moments where she stuck her hand out the window and traced symbols into the Autumn air swirling past the two as they cruised down the empty back roads. When he laughed as she sang Reste by GIMS and Sting. He didnât understand the lyrics, but she did, and she called it a love song. Well, he got the parts Sting sung, but French wasnât a language he knew like she did.
âI guess being Bilingual helped you out massively with that one, huh?â
âItâs a talent I never knew I needed, apparently.â
âWell, you did know you needed.â
âThatâs fair,â she laughed, â I guess I did always need it as a skill.â
âDo your cousins speak English too?â he asked.
âYeah, a bit? Itâs better English than my father.â
âCan he not speak English?â
âWell, he can, just not well. But my mother is also Bilingual in English and French so they never had to worry about my father being bad at English. My twin sister and I grew up knowing both languages,â she rambled, still playing with the wind, âI guess itâs a one-up I have on a lot of people, being able to just talk and talk in another language, travelling advantage,â she kept going, Jason intently listening to her as she went on and on, he liked the silence being filled by her voice, âYou know? You might know, I donât know how you were raised to a T,â she finished.
âWell, I can assure you I only know English so you have that theoretical one-up on me, too. But I choose to see that one-up as something you can teach me as time goes on and we progress,â he paused, âIf youâre down to get serious eventually, that is,â he panicked.
âWell, maybe weâre at that point where we can say weâre casually seeing each other and exclusive, but not serious. Hopeful, but not pressuring ourselves into something thatâs going to be put under a lot of pressure as we go on,â she said, still playing with the wind.
âWeâll see about that after dinner.â
âWhere are we even going?â
âFancy little restaurant with a balcony facing over the city,â he assured.
âReally out here living for the moments?â
âWell, most girls crack under the pressure of the paparazzi, you, however, flipped them off, and thatâs being rewarded for showing that you canât give a fuck about those dingy ass tabloids and how they treat you, by taking you out to nice places,â he said.
She laughed, âIâm glad Iâm never going to live that one down, it was really fun to do.â
âI hope it continues as we go along, I would hate to see that behavior change when it brings a smile to everyone whoâs ever been harassed by paparazziâ when they pulled over for a second, Jason quickly loosened his tie a tad, âHonestly, I want to ditch this fucking tie,â
âItâs not you,â she said, âItâs just not.â
âAnd you know me that well to take that guess?â
âI could see you struggling with it from a mile away, Jason. Maybe the fancy restaurant isnât us,â she laughs, âBut we arenât going to not take that dinner date.â
âOh weâre so going to take that date, but Iâm thinking from here on out we do whatever the fuck we want, no fancy dates. Thoughts?â he asked.
âDone deal,â she said.
----------------------------
In the restaurant, the two of them were basically the worst people to be there, it was levels of fancy that neither of them actually wanted, they both wanted simplicity, but they both thought the presence of the other person was enough of a takeaway from the completely wrong choice of restaurant. They had Dick to blame for this one, and Jason made that clear to Dick in a joking text while Y/N snuck off to the bathroom to âfix her hair, she was actually checking her breath.
Dick, this fucking restaurant is a god damn bust, man. We arenât you and Barbara, thatâs what weâve discovered today. lol.
Bummer! We really like that place.
I can see why it screams Dick and Barbs.
You kissed her yet though?
No.
Wuss! Cat got your tongue? Just do it, man.
And at the same time, Y/N was texting A/N about Jason and what to do,
Girl! Thank you so much for reminding me to bring mints, my god, food ruins your breath so much.
You really want the pretty boy kiss huh?
No, Iâm eating the mints to not kiss him, YES I WANT THE KISS.
Ha! Honesty is key, just go for it.
She laughed as she packed her phone into her dress pockets (Yeah thereâs fucking pockets :) )Â and went to leave the restroom to meet up with Jason again. To which, Jason had already paid and tipped the waiter.
âI could have at least helped on the tip, Jay.â
âI tipped him 200%, but if you want to drop more cash, go for it.â
âYou tipped that much?â she asked while slipping in a 50$ she had on her.
âOf course, food service workers deserve a lot more than what they get, especially when they have to deal with terrible customers,â he said as he went and grabbed her hand again, not intertwining fingers again, âAnd my best friend, Will, he complains about people who donât tip and praises people who quote âover tipâ but I think that he deserves 200% each bill for the shit he puts up with.â
âDid you tip him when we went there?â
âNo, I called in a âNo questions askedâ favour. And before you say anything, he did the same to make me babysit his daughter-â
âYour best friend has a daughter?â
âWell, heâs older than me, but yeah, heâs a single dad because her mum kind of sucks, lovely little girl, Iâm her godfather.â
âDoes she call you Uncle Jason?â
âWell, Uncle Jay, itâs like one of the only works she knows how to say properly, and Dada,â he laughed, âGreat little girl,â he said, nervously, âThis doesnât change anything, does it? âCause if he, knock on fucking wood, lord forbids, dies that will be my daughter.â
âWell, heâs not dead and youâre not worrying that heâs going to die, so nothing has to change. God kids are god kids, noble that you took on your best friendâs kid if, lord forbid, anything happens to the man, really,â she assured.
He sighed and kissed the back of her hand, âThen that is just a gift on top of what I did,â he smiled and lead her back to the Porsche once again, opening the car door for her and she slightly turned on the radio, he let out a small laugh to himself, he got the pretty girl. He got into the Porsche again and began backing out.
âThereâs something about ditching a really expensive dinner date that leaves you wanting more,â she said, absent-mindedly.
âWhat kind of more?â he asked.
âThe kind you see in the movies, fully exposed and adventurous, you know?â
âWell, we could always sneak into the Wayne Manor Gardens and dance the night away under the stars like lovers do,â he half-joked, placing a hand on her thigh again and pretending like he did it subconsciously, but he was hyper-aware, especially when he caught her smile as she laughed.
âWayne Manor? With your brothers, sisters, dad, and grandfather?â she paused, âIf youâre serious, then no, not tonight. If youâre pulling my leg then, hell fucking no,â she joked.
âMaybe one day, then, huh?â
âOne day, for sure. When it isnât scary to accidentally run into your family on their property running around with you,â she said.
âWell, we can always go into the Wayne Enterprises Ballroom and dance the night away, no one should be in the office for a while and even then since there are no classes in the entire school tomorrow you can just hide out in my office if we stay too long,â he paused to make sure she was still listening, âSecurity canât question me because Iâm Bruce Wayneâs son, and security is tight as fuck so paparazzi canât get to us,â he paused to put a little bit of pressure on her thigh, âWhat do you say? Can I have this dance, Milady?â he half-joked.
âYou want to know something Jason?
âAlways, Y/N.â
âI took dance lessons when I was younger, can you Waltz?â she asked.
âYes maâam, I can.â
âThen Iâm in, letâs go.â
-------------------------------------
She loved the feeling of being back in her new hometown, Gotham. So when they pulled into the massive black building, she felt even more welcomed, security at the gates did ask âWhoâs the girl?â but Jason just explained it very easily,
âYou know that date of mine that flipped off the press and you lot loved it?â he asked.
âYes, sir,â the man responded.
âYou can call me Jason, you know that. But this is that girl.â
And they were let through the parking gates and into the underground parking system, they had to travel surprisingly far to Jasonâs reserved spot in the lot, but the did get there before it hit AM. Once out of the car, Jason grabbed her hand and they ran into the buildingâs employees doors. It was a tight squeeze, but the feeling of Jason pressed so close to her sent chills down her spine. They went through many halls and reached the Ballroom, and entering it was like a dream for her.
Walls lined with intricate shapes and colours, but the colours never brought away from the stage at the far end from the door, the curtains seemed to redden with each step towards them, the 3, maybe 4 chandeliers hung above her like crystals in the ocean, it was amazing and beautiful. Checkered floorboards to give it a little bit of dimension, but it was the same colour as the main wall so your brain and eyes wouldnât hurt after looking at it. It was stunningly beautiful and thatâs what drew her in.
When he grabbed her hand and put on Never Let Me Go by Florence + The Machine, pulling her close to his chest and slowly Waltzing her around the room, spinning her when it felt right for him to do. Neither of them worried about the sloppiness or how it looked to the naked eye because it was for them. no one got satisfaction like they did at that moment. And grabbing her for one last dip was Jasonâs goal when the ending of the song hit, although out of breath and his face stuffed in her chest as they both panted, he did pull her up so they were face-to-face on the dancefloor that they wiped clean.
âDid I tell you that you look stunning, Y/N?â
âI think you mentioned it a few times, Jay,â she said, staring directly into his eyes.
âWell, I mean it.â
âAnd Iâm going to mean this,â she paused, taking her hand and placing it on his cheek, â The way your eyes are a green-blue tint makes me lost in them, theyâre like a sea of this mind I find myself liking more and more every day,â she paused to put her other hand on his other cheek, âAnd the way your nose and cheek freckles frame them is amazing.â
And he went for it. Somehow when he pressed his lips into hers, it felt like they were meant to match, and they both opened their mouths to play the coveted game of tongue-war, but they didnât play by the rules, it was soft and sweet but full of passion and love, not lust. His hands would travel to her waist and lightly grip her, while her hands would travel to his neck and drape around the back of it.
They pulled away at the same moment to take in air, something they had clearly been missing as they were connected, they both let out a small chuckle before she put her hands in his hair and went in for round 2.
This time it was hungrier, and they both played with the shapes of the other so much more as time went on, he would grab her ass and she would pull on his hair slightly before he picked her up and she wrapped her legs around his waist and moved one of her hands to the nape of his neck, this time, they would break for seconds only to start moving towards his office, which, conveniently, had a couch.
To say he threw her on that couch would be an understatement, he fucking thrust her on that couch and climbed on top of her, it was like 3 days of passion and lust combined themselves in a matter of minutes from their first kiss to them meeting on the couch. They both knew deep down that it couldnât escalate further than this, especially at 1 in the morning, but time moves fast when youâre connecting in this way.
They finally broke after their passionate exchange and he fell to her side and began to spoon her, âWorth it,â he whispered.
âWorth what?â she asked.
âIt was worth it to take a chance and defy my anxieties to ask you on that first date.â
âI donât like a reality where you didnât ask me on that date.â
âNeither do I, and Iâm positive of that.â

The Forest - Part One
Consists: Supernatural, SKZ as different SN creatures, adventure, romance, drama, action, ......still trying to figure out all the details....lol XD
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/fb340b32aed2ee55ec17a20fb0421007/3ee1b3b04a9b5a4f-a5/s540x810/2e1f3594ad159478b186a65d676796300024b521.jpg)
"Come on Y/N!", I was racing around the house. Trying to make sure I had everything for this trip. "Omg Y/N, let's GO~!" I swear to the universe she's going to thank me later. " I'm coming child!" I screamed back. Alrighty I just need my retainer. I bounded up the stairs and glided down the hallway with my cotton socks. Bursting into my room, I quickly scanned it for the sparkly emerald case. I caught sight of it out of the corner of my eye, "Boom!" I ran forward and snatched it off my windowsill. While leaping for my door, I paused and turned back to what I call my sanctuary. Call me paranoid but I'm kinda afraid of camping in the middle of the woods. Ever since I watched "The Blair Witch Project", I've been creeped.
It doesn't help that Jazzy forced us to watch the film, previous to this morning. I was drifting in the fairy floss clouds of my mind when a loud honk poured water on them. I sucked in a breath, blowing raspberries. Padding back over to my bedside, I grabbed my Ice Bear plushie. Giving it a quick squeeze and finally deciding that he's coming with me. Galloping back through the house, I made it out, locked the door and hopped in the back seat like a spring rabbit. "What took you so long?" I gazed up through my fringe at my girl bestie Jazmine. She had long beautiful honey blonde hair, and a mousy nose. Her blue eyes were alike with pebbles under a lake, with cheeks connected by a dash of light freckles. "I swear I just aged waiting for you" and Danny, our guy bestie. I've been best friends with Danny, since 3rd grade. Jazzy moved over during the 5th grade. All three of us have been with each other through thick and thin. Daniel was Hawaiian Japanese descent, had perfect colorful nails and absolutely gorgeous eye makeup. We were all dressed in casual, comfy clothes for the trip. Jazmine, or Jazzy as people call her, as the oldest. She was driving Danny's dad's truck. It was spacious and definitely was fit for the environment. Danny, second eldest was in shotgun and I, being the "baby", was in the back. "I was just making sure I have everything." The two rolled their eyes. Danny looked back at me "Girl, you need to chill. We've got everything and more" the boy stated. "I know, I know.....I'm just paranoid, you know.....being in the woods for a week" I looked down at my feet and played with my fingers to cover my embarressedness. "Awww, is the baby scared", Jazzy giggled, imitating a child. I swatted at her, "Let's just...finally go" I grumbled, reaching inside my bag to pull out my headphones. "Fine" they answered teasingly. While Jazzy was pulling out, I fastened myself and slid my headphones on. Bluetoothing them and unlocking my phone, I scrolled through my YouTube Music playlist finding the one named 'Bell Mix'. After that, I went back to the truffula trees and fairy floss. Just listening to my music and thinking about things. There were a couple times, where I thought I might get sick, but I had remembered my motion sickness bracelets. In your face! It's better to set out a little later, rather than having our vehicle reeking of my insides. 2 or 3 hours went by, or something. I'm not really sure, my brain doesn't really have a sense of time when I'm inside of it. We stopped to use the bathroom, get food and fuel at a gas station, maybe 2 hours away from the forest. "Can I, can I, can I, can I PLEASE?!?" I had been begging Jazzy to let me buy a bag of Haribo for 10 minutes now, and she was starting to break. I'm very persuasive as you find out, and I happen to be a very prominent weakness to many throughout my life. She finally gave in and I bounced away to the candy isle with glee and happily picked out a bag, promising to share. Jazzy just rolled her eyes and paid for our things. We trotted back to the car and continued our journey. It was nearing the end of 2pm when we finally arrived at the edge of the forest. It's lushes were absolutely perfectly splendid. The road continued for a hot minute, until it gave away to dirt and rocks. We didn't want to stray too far from the dirt road, so we slowly kept moving in until I suddenly exclaimed at the sight of a pretty little clearing. It had a few little bushes marking the edges, thick but soft looking grass, and a little dirt patch at one side that should be perfect for a firepit. We pulled over to take a look around, flattening a few bushes in the process. As soon as the truck came to a stop I shoved the door open and sprung down onto the flourishing forest floor. The first thing I did was take a deep breath to soak in the sweet scent of the untouched earth. I reached up, stretching and cracking a few of my bones in the process. Then I raced through the trees and undergrowth, toward the beautiful glade. It felt so nice to get away from civilization, I had always loved
getting away like this. Being able to recharge away from annoying people and sounds, my fears of the night were long forgotten. I was two steps away from the grass when I suddenly tripped over something. Tumbling forward and scratching my cheek. I landed on my face, but on the bright side it was luckily with no rocks around. The dirt however spared me at nothing, crawling into my fresh scrapes, was a sharp and quick stinging as I grabbed my face. "Seriously Y/N, we haven't even completely left the car yet and you've already managed to hurt yourself" Jazzy declared. Danny chimed in, "Did you hurt yourself at all?". Quickly inspecting myself, I responded "Yes, a tiny bit on my cheek, hands and knees", I could hear them muttering to themselves about how reckless I was sometimes. They started toward me and as I waited for them to catch up, I decided to look around and figure out where to put things for these next few days. While ogling the decently wide stretch that was conveniently shielded by a mighty sugar maple. I thought I saw something in the undergrowth a few meters away from me. I grabbed my glasses and narrowed my eyes, but right when I thought I saw whatever it was, two flashes shot in the opposite direction between the ferns and disappeared. They were kinda hidden but I could sorta make out one of the shapes was darker and slightly bigger. The other was a little bit easier but still was difficult, it was kinda brown, or maybe reddish? At that moment I felt two hands on my shoulders, "Let me see", it was Jazzy. She inspected my injury. "It'll be fine, just wash it off", "Okie-Dokie-Artichokie", she laughed and ruffled my hair. I gazed back at where I saw the two shapes but not even the bushes were still moving. "Hey!" I cocked my head back to the voice "Can you help me?" Danny was struggling to unpack from the back. "Sure thing Danny-O" I quickly stood up, maybe a little too quick. My vision went funny and I almost stumbled. "Oh my god Y/N! Be careful!" Jazzy scolded, "My bad!" I was a little all over the place at the moment. Finally we were on this trip! I mean, I waited 6 months for this and it's finally here! I'm not all childish, I'm actually very 4D. I'm just really excited okay? I more carefully walked back to the truck, where Danny was struggling to keep ahold of what appeared to be the tent. Over the course of the next hour and a half we set up everything. Goofing around and laughing. Danny had been pulling too hard on our sleeping bags, to wedge them out of the trunk. And had accidentally fallen onto the slightly wet dirt, causing a very prominent brown streak across his gray sweatpants and sky blue tie dye hoodie. I was currently on my way to find the stream that is supposably close by, with a screenshot of google maps and a compass. Service wasn't exactly a 5 star out here, but I didn't mind too much. I brought a portable WiFi router with me, so if Jason Vorhees just decided to pull one, we could call for help. Every so often I would hang a wooden heart ornament on one of the tree's branches, so if this was the correct way then we would never get lost. Also so that I didn't get lost right now. I had been making these last night, for these exact reasons. I swear only dumb people don't mark their surroundings, this is one of the main reasons why people disappear and are never found or get lost. There are no traces of where they've been, like these fruit loops really-...... After about another 20 meters I started hearing the sounds of water. It became louder and louder really quickly. Is there a waterfall here? I pondered, while quickening my pace with curiosity. 35 seconds later I came across a thinning in the trees and beyond a clear water stream. I finally broke out of the shelter provided from the thick leaves, the sun kissed my skin with it's warm touch. I looked around and sure enough, there was a small waterfall that looked straight out of a fairytale. It had multiple uneven levels, with smoothed boulders everywhere. And to top it all off, it had little water plants scattered around it. Absolutely
beautiful.... I scanned around and spotted a few giant boulders poking into the stream. I carefully picked my way over to them, clutching onto Danny's muddy clothes. Hopping onto the sunlight warmed stones, I positioned myself perfectly so that I could reach the water but wouldn't fall in. I reached into my pocket for my zip lock of natural soap, of course I didn't want to hurt this literally untouched land. I leaned down to dunk the fabric into the stream's crystal-like water and kneaded the brown smudge. It was decently cold, just perfect for a stream. I turned back to the small bag with a green bar wrapped with brown paper and a little herb decoration. I unzipped it and reached for a tiny hand towel I brought with me so that I would have a better grip on the soap, even if I got wet. After dunking the clothes in I took the bar of soap and swiped it all over. I dipped it into the water once to help the bubble come, then I started aggressively rubbing it. Once the outfit was foaming with suds, I slapped it into the brook. Holding onto the sleeve I rub it harshly all over to get the stains out. It was relatively still easy because the events of cause were only moments before. I was starting to disappear into my thoughts, getting deeper and deeper and deeper....... And just then a crash and from the trees, followed by snarls and barks. I was so lost in my thought that this jolted me into the canal. The water suddenly became ice cold, my scream had been washed away. A surge of water filled my lungs from the way my mouth was open to yelp. I could still hear the sounds of fighting every so often, when I would surface. My head was hurting, my skin was stinging and my lungs were screaming. Someone.....please help..... It was hurting so much, I was trying not to panic. So I could find the surface and get back to shore. I would break through it's crisp arctic clutches every so often and would cry out for help but then get cut off by the now frosty darkness. I was giving up to the stream and submitting to the coldness. Letting it swallow me whole. I was numb, I couldn't feel my body being thrown around anymore, Is this how my story ends? No! I don't want to! I still have things to do! I need to graduate, and find my passion! I need to find a man who will love me as much as I do! I need to birth young and care for them! I want to grow old with my partner happily! I can't die yet! I just can't! But it was just so cold. I had stopped moving violently, so I guess I had been poured into a lake or something. I didn't care anymore. My blood felt frozen, I couldn't even bend a finger. That's when I felt a force near me, it parted the waters. Moving me in a different direction with its power. Then not long after I felt something grab hold of me in an awkward way. I was starting to be pulled into another direction, as the water streamed around, parting to let me and whatever that was saving me through. Then I broke through the surface and that was the last thing I felt before slipping into a comfy unconsciousness.

After Midnight - Arthur Morgan, Micah Bell.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/824425af587990e57c4668e29649b992/08d59e8eaa0c8be9-5c/s540x810/69076483ecbccc6fffacbc015e789decce2917c2.jpg)
Summary: Having spent the entire day traveling with Sean, Charles and Micah, Arthur wants nothing more than to let the sleep overtake him. His plans are sidetracked when Micah wouldn't leave his hotel room, and Arthur has to concentrate hard to ignore the man and his talk as he tries to fall asleep.
Words: 2,313
Warnings: none.
AO3 Link.
A/N: Long story short, I was able to trigger a âCompanionâ bug in which camp members can follow you on your adventures around the world. Google/Search it on YouTube to get a better sense for what Iâm talking about. Anyway, I got Micah, Charles and Sean. I robbed and killed with them for a few hours before deciding to call it a night and went into a hotel. I got Arthur a bath, and as Iâm laying in the bath, I see an icon moving toward Arthurâs room. When I left the bath and went into the hotel room, who did I see lol? Micah wouldnât leave the room no matter what, so Arthur slept with Micah watching over him. Only when Arthur woke up the next morning did Micah finally leave the room. Weirdly enough, only Micah stayed with Arthur in the room, not Sean or Charles, though all of them were supposed to follow Arthur wherever he went.
~ ~ ~
It was nice to hang out with the guys for a change. More often than not, Arthur was alone; he would go hunting alone, collect bounties alone and help people around the country, alone. He enjoyed the solitude, of course, but something about riding with his fellow gang members down the dusty plain, all of them on their respective horses, had him treasure every minute of it. The conversations that they engaged in were a welcomed change to the usual silence that accompanied Arthur on his journeys, and the safety in numbers did not go by unnoticed. He could feel, as they passed by fellow gunslingers and bounty hunters on the road, eyes watching them warily. No one dared to look at them wrong, just the sight of all four of them, with iron on their hips and scars on their faces, made any attempt dissipate as fast as their horses did down the dirt path.
The night had fallen when they rolled into town. The shops were closing down, saloons becoming quieter and streets emptier as they rode through the Main Street. Arthur could feel a yawn make its way up his throat and did nothing to stop it. The day was long, with enough endeavors to last some people a lifetime, and he wanted nothing to do than to wash it away and go to sleep.
As they continued their way up the Main Street, Arthur saw a hotel; a small construction that by the looks of it barely stood together with the rotten boards and rusty nails, but with no other options, it would have to do.
Despite offering them, Sean and Charles declined spending the night in the crappy hotel and said they rather camp outside of town. Arthur didnât have a chance to extend the same offer to Micah (not that he wanted to either) for the fact that he couldnât find him (he went to the general store), so after bidding the guys goodnight, he went into the hotel, paid for a room and a bath and went to the latter first.
The first few minutes of being submerged in the water were always the best. Arthur could feel every ounce of stress leave his body along with the dirt. These few moments of peace always made him think of his dog, and despite the fact that the boy was long gone, he always smiled when he remembered him.
As okay as he was with bathing in rivers and lakes, he much preferred the steaming hot water of a hotel bath. He took the time to thoroughly wash himself, sliding the wet rag up and down his arms, legs and back. A satisfied groan would leave his lips now and then as he washed his hair, adding a slight pressure to massage his scalp.
After he finished cleaning himself, he took a deep breath and reclined against the rim of the bath. The smell of peppermint soap filled his senses and with the soap bubbles acting as a blanket, he felt himself drifting off to the dream world. A commotion outside made him let out an exhausted sight and open his eyes. He furrowed his brows as he heard someone enter the room next door, his room.
Perhaps it was Sean or Charles taking him up on his offer, deciding against bunking with coyotes and skunks.
He heaved a deep groan as he exited the bath. After drying himself off and putting on a fresh pair of clothes, he went to his room.
âWhat the hell are you doinâ here?â Arthur said as soon as he entered the room.
Micahâs back was turned to Arthur as he stood by the window of the room, looking outside. The town was quiet and all its citizens asleep. Micah enjoyed the nighttime, the quietness and calmness it provided. Like all the nighttime creatures, Micah felt the most comfortable when the sun was set and the moon loomed over.
âWell,â Micah said as he turned around, holding a cigarette between his fingers, âAs you forgot to invite me, I decided to take matters into my own hands and welcome myself in.â
âGet out of here,â Arthur said as he moved across the room to a nightstand by the bed, removing his satchel and placing it there. He made a point of ignoring the man by the window as he took off his gun belt and placed it next to his satchel.
Micah didnât move from his spot by the window, though he wasnât looking through it anymore. As he held the cigarette between his fingers, puffing on it from time to time, he watched Arthur remove his belt, his jackets and his boots, all while his back was to him.
As Arthur turned around, ready to start pulling down his pants, he saw that Micah was still there, eyeing him in such a way that Arthur all of a sudden felt flustered.
âYou still here?â he said.
Micah motioned with his hands and shrugged his shoulders without saying anything, implying that Yes, as you can see, Iâm still standing here.
Micah moved from his position near the window to lean against a dresser in the center of the room.
Arthur wondered why he hadn't pushed Micah out of the room yet, and why he was now pulling his pants down, stripping down to just his Union suit in front of the man heâs known all 5 months. Not that the length of time theyâve known each other would have an effect on whether he would strip in front of him or not, but still. Perhaps he was too tired to pick a fight.
When down to his sleepwear, Arthur sat at the edge of the bed. The sleep had long passed him, and he was sharply aware that Micah wasnât moving from his place by the dresser.
âAre you just gonna stand there?â Arthur said.
âDo you want me to stand somewhere else?â Micah replied.
Arthur rolled his eyes before saying, âArenât you going to sleep?â
Micah placed the cigarette back between his lips and inhaled the smoke. He kept his eyes on Arthur as he let the smoke escape in a cloud in front of him. After wetting his lips with his tongue, Micah replied as a matter of fact, âI donât sleep.â
âYou donât-You donât sleep?â Arthur said, a genuine surprise in his voice at what Micah said. Now that he thought about it though, he realized that he has actually never seen the man sleep before. Heâs never seen him sleep, never seen him in his sleepwear and never even seen him lay down. In fact, he didnât even think Micah had his own tent or a cot to begin with.
âNope.â
âThatâs a load of crap,â Arthur said and waved his hand at Micah, âEverybody's gotta sleep.â
âNot me.â
Despite how outlandish the statement sounded, Arthur found himself believing Micah; If the wrinkles and bags under the manâs eyes were anything to go by.
As if it only now dawned upon him, Arthur cocked his head at Micah and said, âSo what did you come here for then? Watch me sleep?â
Micah chuckled, the same way he did when he wanted to undermine someone or simply be an ass.
âIf thatâs what you want, cowpoke,â he said.
Arthur was far too tired to engage in a pointless verbal quarrel with Micah.
Without replying anything else, he shook his head, got under the thin covers of the hotel bed and turned his back to him, determined to not let the presence of the blonde man ruin his rest.
The sleep didnât come to him as easily as he hoped. He was hyper aware of Micah behind his back, and in the dead silence of the night, could hear the faint sound of him inhaling the cigarette smoke. He squirmed in the bed, tossing and turning as if the position was at fault for his restlessness and not Micah Bell the Thirdâs eyes which he could feel on his back.
âI had a brother once,â Micah said, breaking the silence, âSuppose I still do.â
Upon hearing Micahâs voice, Arthur stopped moving and laid still, listening.
âWe ran together for a while; me, him and our pa. Did a lot of good stuff. Did a lot of bad stuff. You mightâve even read some of it in the papers,â Micah added with a snicker. âI trusted him. We was brothers, beyond the sense of the word.â
Micah was silent for a good while after, letting his words settle in the air and letting his own thoughts settle as well. The images of all the vile savagery theyâve done together; robbing, stealing, killing, assaulting; flooded his brain, and he couldnât help but smile at the recollection. The smile fell however, as he remembered what followed after; his brother's hesitations, his wanting to go straight and to leave the life behind. The anger that always boiled inside of Micah came on raging as he remembered the last time he and his brother talked before the latter bailed on him and his father.
Any jest left his voice as he continued. âAnd then he found himself a whore, knocked her up and hightailed to the West. Last I heard heâs living a cushy rancher life in California.â
The cigarette between his fingers was long forgotten, the cinder from it falling to the ground.
Arthur was now laying on his back, his head slightly towards Micah. âWhatâs his name?â
âAmos. Amos Bell.â
Arthur let the newfound information settle in his head, before he finally asked, âWhy are you telling me all of this?â
Micah shrugged his shoulders before saying, âThought you might like a bedtime story, seeing as you couldnât fall asleep.â
Arthur groaned before closing his eyes and said, âRemind me to never let you near Jack.â
Whether it was Micahâs âbedtime storyâ or the exhaustion finally getting the better of him, but within a few minutes Arthur was out, sprawled out on the hotel bed, light snores coming out of his open mouth.
Micah, just as he said, didnât sleep all throughout the night. He smoked a couple more cigarettes, drank some whiskey, checked the cabinets and the dressers, and even read Arthurâs journal. The man was deep in slumber, judging by his snores, so Micah didnât feel any hesitation to reach into his satchel and pull out the one item that Arthur was always protective over.
He casually flipped through the pages; a drawing of a horse, a drawing of a bunny, another drawing of a horse, a portrait of a random camp member, another drawing of a horse?! For a moment, he thought Arthur was carrying around Jackâs drawing journal, with all the doodles of horses and squirrels and birds that he saw there. That was until he started coming upon short chronicles and daily logs, some of them detailing mundane things such as the bounties Arthur caught or strangers that he helped, other, more grim, such as plans of bank robberies and the friends who had fallen.
As he flipped through the pages, a log caught his attention.
November 12, 1898
Got into a bar fight when Dutch tried to sell that gold we found few weeks back. The locals donât seem to take too kindly to strangers in these parts. Canât blame them. We was fighting to an inch of our life when a stranger joined in. I wasnât sure if he was on our side or not, but when the opposition started dropping, I understood. Micah Bell's name is, I think. Dutch offered him to join the gang, and he accepted. Not sure what I think of him yet. He seems hot headed and reckless, but heâs good with his guns and thatâs all that matters. Weâll see.
As he flipped to the next page, something that almost never happened with Micah did; he was caught by surprise.
The very next page after the previous log was fully dedicated to a portrait of him. His mouth hung ajar as he looked at himself on the paper. The carefully drawn eyes, the long, unkempt hair, the horseshoe mustache, and his classic white hat. Even the fire and the fury in his eyes was translated onto the paper, and in the top right corner, two letters in cursive, MB.
All of a sudden, Micah felt flustered, another emotion that rarely made an appearance. He shot close the journal, a little too suddenly, and his eyes flew to Arthurâs sleeping form on the bed. He was sprawled on the bed, sheets entangled in his legs and his arms above his head, still sleeping. Micah walked to the nightstand where Arthur satchel was and slid the journal back inside before going to his previous position by the window.
The night was as dark as ever, with the sky littered with innumerable stars. Micah lit yet another cigarette and brought it to his lips. He hesitated for a moment, sending a side glance to Arthur. Vulnerable and frail, asleep and practically naked, Micah could kill him right now. No one would hear a thing as heâd plunge the knife deep into Arthurâs chest, killing him so quickly Arthur would barely have a moment to open his eyes. It would take hours for them to realize something was wrong, and at that point, Micah would be long gone, his horseâs footprints the only thing left.
A small rasp from Arthur brought Micah back to reality. He shuffled a bit, turning to his side before pulling the covers tighter over his body. The night once again fell quiet, only the sound of coyotes crying in the distance. Micah stood motionless for a few seconds, his hands itching, before he turned his attention back to the window and put the cigarette back to his lips.

Even after all these years, riding on a train still brought a small flutter to Lucyâs stomach as she remembered the long ago evening when sheâd met her husband. From an innocent meeting to a death defying experience, talk about a roller coaster ride. And yet, if she had to do it all over again, Lucy wouldnât change a thing. Crazy sounding yes, for why would anyone not want to avoid what sheâd gone through? Touka had truly pushed her sanity to the breaking point, but well, the therapist was right in the end and Lucy felt almost invincible now. All that pain, all the struggle sheâd pushed through had made her the strong and resilient woman she was today. Happily married to Natsu with their fraternal twins Nashi and Ryuu. Mrs. Natsu Dragneel, Lucy smiled to herself, there was no way sheâd change a thing.
Of course, it hadnât been easy. After Natsu proposed and Lucy had accepted, there were still a lot of work to be done. But that measure of acceptance and affection did wonders. Any worries sheâd had that he wouldnât want a broken woman melted away and gave her the confidence to get better. With each passing therapy session, her strength grew, and by the time they graduated college, Lucy could honestly say sheâd been cured to a functional degree. No longer struggling through nightmares and panic attacks, her anxieties were under control and the debilitating depression a distant memory where it belonged.
Yeah... Lucy sighed happily as she watched the landscape pass by from her train seat. Meeting Natsu was the best thing to ever happen in her life, well, aside from the kids. Theyâd married about a year after graduation on the anniversary of their meeting. It was a beautiful affair at an indoor venue, with close friends and family to join them. Theyâd gone a more modern route for the ceremony but did take pictures at a garden dressed in the traditional attire for sentimental reasons. Lucy wore the shiromuku white kimono while Natsu a montsuki haori hakama. And no, it wasnât train themed! Levy was the Maid of Honor and Gray was the best man. By then, Levy and Gajeel were also married and Gray in a serious relationship with a girl named Juvia Lockser. Lucy was so happy for them both. All of their lives were moving in the right direction.
Everything was perfect. Great jobs in their fields of interest, lives settled into a comfortable routine, when 5 years later Lucy was pregnant with fraternal twins. It was a total surprise since twins didnât run in either of their families. Always the jovial optimist, Natsu joked that theyâd been doubly blessed because of what theyâd gone through, and Lucy couldnât help but love such a concept. Of course, once the euphoria of the motherhood prospect waned, reality set in that she was having twins! Two! Double the babies meant double of everything, from the pregnancy concerns to raising them. Growing up without a mother and as an only child, Lucy didnât have a lot of experience with small children. But Natsu patiently assured her, that sheâd do just fine. Think of it as a new challenge, and after overcoming one pretty tough situation, this would be a walk in the park. On the bright side, Levy was also pregnant with the coupleâs first child so the two best friendâs kids would grow up together.
And Natsu was right, there were a few bumps in the road but nothing too difficult. During her fourth month Lucy was diagnosed with gestational diabetes as well as some minor gastrointestinal issues, so Natsu swayed the doctor to put her on bed rest. Better safe than sorry. The babies were healthy, but by the 7th month, she really couldnât move much, and she was miserable being stuck at home all the time. Lucy missed her job because she genuinely enjoyed working for the magazine. But in the end, it had been a good thing. She could manage her health easier that way and it gave her time to do something sheâd thought about doing as part of the healing process. With Natsuâs support and permission, it was time to put her writing skills to good use and write a book about their experience.
It became an instant hit, especially with female readers. The book was not only an autobiographical reflection of what had happened to them but focused on shining a light on the dangers of stalkers, as well as the importance of taking the warning signs seriously. Lucy didnât hold back in her re-telling, even pointing out the serious flaws in Japanâs laws in protecting citizens from stalkers which at the time were nonexistent. Feminist organizations working to change those laws used her story with permission for their cause. She had no intentions of becoming a poster child for the movement, but in the end her role may have played its part, because 2 years after the publishing, Japan finally adopted anti-stalking laws making it easier for police to string together harassment cases, as well as for victims to get the help they needed.
Her life was nothing but exciting to say the least! And with two young children, now age 10 certainly kept them on their toes. Their daughter Nashi was just like Natsu, very outgoing, friendly, but a bit of a daredevil while her brother Ryuu born 4 minutes after her was the quieter of the two. He preferred books like his mother to adventure. Of course, that never stopped Nashi from dragging him into shenanigans! But the best part was how close they still were and fiercely protective of each other. Lucy and Natsu couldnât be prouder of them and hoped this would continue throughout their lifetimes.
Fifteen years... come to think of it, their wedding anniversary was coming up shortly. With Natsu now a senior fire inspector for the Tokyo prefectural government, he was often busy. Lucy did mind it, because frankly it gave her some peace and quiet. She chuckled at the thought. Not that it was all that peaceful with the twins. But she digressed. His success meant their lives were very comfortable, and her own journalism successes while not as financially based, were still celebrated in their relationship. Natsu never waned in being the dutiful and supportive, always loving husband that Lucy felt blessed to grow old with.
âTwo more stops, pick up the kids from school, stop at the grocery store for dinner...â Lucy tapped out on her phone a to-do list of ingredients to pick up at the store. Perhaps katsudon... âMmm, or maybe nabe,â hot-pot soup since it was expected to be a bit chilly that evening.
Lucy looked up briefly, really just spacing out in thought when someone catches her eye. At the other end of the train car, she noticed a woman facing slightly away, but enough to where she couldnât quite see a face. It couldnât be... Lucy looked away not wanting to stare, but somehow... for some reason the woman was awfully familiar... looking exactly like Touka. Well, not exactly, but enough to make the hair on the back of her neck stand up. It was a blonde, with a different hair styleâ and that could always be changed. Similar body type, the facial side-profile features that Lucy could see resembled Touka...
Now despite being better, her anxieties still bubbled up from time to time, so she immediately switched to her coping techniques to calm them down. âYouâre fine,â Lucy talked herself through it, âno point in getting riled up.â The woman hadnât done so much as looked in her direction, so it must be okay. Contrary to popular belief, things like depression and anxiety never fully goes away, especially when someone has experienced a severe level of it. Those emotions and irrational thoughts are forever programmed into the brain, but there are ways to keep them at bay and Lucyâs successfully done just that for 15 years.
âJust go back to what you were doing. Katsudon or nabe? And donât forget you need to pick up milk...â But, fifteen years... could Touka have been released by now? Lucy shook the thought away again. âStop it! Everything is fine. Itâs not her!â The train was semi-full of passengers all minding their own business... including the woman. There was no reason to start panicking now. Lucy adjusts her position on her seat away from the womanâs direction. If she couldnât see her, she could pretend she didnât exist. âMaybe I should pick up ingredients for both, that way I donât have to shop tomorrow.â Lucy thought to herself, and with the kids with her, they could help in carrying the shopping bags. âYeah, weâve got a planâŚâ
After figuring out her shopping list, Lucy pulled up social media to keep herself distracted and for a few minutes it did the trick. Silly videos of entertainers never got old. The train reached the next stop and she felt it come to a stop. Since it wasnât hers, she didnât pay it any mind as she scrolled through her feed. But as the disembarking passengers funnel past Lucy, her eyes pick up on a pair of pink high-heels peeking from over the edge of her phone. Her body instantly stiffened up from the similarity to the ones worn by the woman, while her curiosity slowly got the better of her. âBreath, act nonchalant!â Lucyâs eyes tracked the high-heels moving past her until they left her periphery. She then slowly sat back up, pretending to readjust her position, when she caught a pair of eyes looking back. Lucyâs breathing hitches with a shaky exhale. âOh, my godâ"
Standing at the doorway with one hand on the frame, the blonde woman smiled at Lucy then winked before stepping off the train.
It was Touka!

Friends With Benefits + WayV
WayV is actually my ult so I thought Iâd write this and tbh Iâm really proud of this one
Kun
Only does FWB if either of you is tense & needs a way to de-stress.
Definitely not the one to initiate it & laughs when you propose the idea to him but when he realizes youâre serious heâs all đłđł
You make rules about it but most of them get broken (âdonâtâ catch feelings, etc)
Heâs Kun tho, you canât not catch feels
Eventually heâd start treating you like his gf
Getting really affectionate and even getting jealous when another member is talking to you
He starts treating you like his gf to the point where youll meet someone and theyâll ask how long youâve been dating
The sex would be great tho
I just know this man is packing
Itâs big I know it is like BIG big
Depending on the day the sex could be rough or it could be tender and romantic
Probably the cheesy rom com thing happens where you drift apart and start dating someone else & your new s/o meets Kun and decides to break up with you because âyouâre still in love with himâ
Of course youâre like âpfft no wayâ but then you think about it and yes. Heâs the one you wanted to be with
Anyways this turned fluffy Iâm sorry
Lucas
Oh my god
Definitely starts at a party in a game of seven minutes in heaven
Youâre pretty drunk but you end up giving him a hand job in the closet
You thought he was drunk too but apparently it was his turn to be WayVâs designated driver
Most of the group is passed out at the party or got a ride from someone else
Yangyang is the only one who still needs a ride so Lucas offers you a lift home too
Heâs in the back seat and youâre in the front seat next to Lucas
You keep glancing over at him and he keeps smiling when you do. His eyes are on the road but he can see you with his peripheral vision
Yangyang is wondering why things are so awkward between you two but doesnât say a thing
He walks you to your door and as youâre standing there you feel a surge of confidence sweep over you
You tell him âYou know, you might have to come inside sometimeâ
He sighs. âNot tonight, I gotta take the kid homeâ he says, but he slowly leans in and so do you and he gives you a slow and tender kiss.
You could swear you heard yelling from his car parked nearby
Things probably escalate quickly
Heâd start sending you snaps and texts about what he was doing and pictures of him shirtless in bed
You werenât sure what to say to those so one day you go out and buy something sexy and take some pictures in it and send those in return
To which he just responds âon my wayâ
He shows up at your door holding up a condom and the second you realize what it is your lips are straight on his
He normally loves foreplay but skips it because the anticipation is way too much for him
He definitely ran like 6 red lights on his way to you
The next morning he tells the rest of the group
You probably drift apart when he starts to travel for work, but even then, when he comes back he always finds himself coming back to you
And when Hendery points that out to him, he realizes heâs been crazy about you for years
Hendery
Now this one would be hot as hell
It all starts at a party where you know nobody
But then you spot Hendery and youâre like âthank God.â
You guys talk for a couple minutes before you mention that you kind of want to go home or at least go somewhere
He offers to take you somewhere to just get away from everything
Youâre sitting in his car together, sort of just talking about things that went down at the party and you thank him for spending time with you
Thereâs a bit of an awkward pause before your lips are on his and your hands are all over each other
In the midst of all this making out, you mutter âcan weââ to which he mutters âI know a place. Now buckle up, I gotta drive there.â
You buckle up and he rests one of his hands, the one not on the steering wheel of course, on your thigh, gently rubbing it as he drives to a nearby lookout point
You glance at the other cars and itâs too dark to see whatâs going on in them, but itâs clear to you that this is a hookup spot
âThis is what you wanted, right?â
You go searching through the glove compartment and take out a condom before leaving your side of the car and heading over to his
He didnât notice you grabbing the condom, so he thinks he got the wrong message and messed everything up by driving you here. Muttering âah, shit Hendery,â to himself
He sees you come around to his side of the car, heâs very confused
âWaitââ he says
You just hold up the condom to show him and next thing you know, youâre straddled in his lap having sex
The next couple of days you thought would be awkward, but it wasnât really
Heâd treat you like a friend around the boys but whenever he got you alone
Like youâre literally fuck buddies at this point
Texts you really dirty things during the day and when the other members are in the room
Shit like âyou gave me the best blowjob of my life last night. Wanna try and top it?â
Also sends you dirty pics
Likes to fuck you when the other members are home
Except one time, he waits until theyâre gone because he doesnât want either if you to have to hold back
Turns out they are home tho
Theyâre all in the living room and Ten is about to enter their room when he hears whatâs going on
His face gets all red and he calls a Yangyang over who comes over and realizes whatâs going on
âTen, whatâs up?â Asks Lucas
âShh! Henderyâa getting laid.â
They all go and sit down
Later on that night theyâre still sitting in the living room trying not to disturb you guys but wanting to know who the hell heâs sleeping with while Henderyâs passed out in his bed
You still donât know anyoneâs home, so you just leave his room and of course the first thing you see when you open the door is 6 boys sitting in the living room, looking up at you with their jaws dropped.
Ten
Mr We just touching I donât do no cuffinâ
Yeah I definitely think this would start out with you & him being super close, not like best friends but in that arena
And one time youâre just hanging out & oops he kisses you
Escalates fast af
Like next thing you know youâre giving him a BJ in his dorm when the rest of the group is out
Except it turns out Lucas is home and heard it all
You leave his room and see him in the living room playing with Bella
And heâs all smug like âyou guys enjoyed yourselves đâ
Ten doesnât even know that Lucas knows
Relationship definitely includes a lot of oral and hand stuff
I get a feeling tenâs really into both giving and receiving
Anyways this relationship would completely blur the lines between friendship and sex
Like your normal friendly hangouts would get heated if nobody else was around
Yangyang
Whelp
This one would be an adventure
Youâre probably in a friend group with him and know him pretty well
You propose the idea to him, and his eyes bulge out of his head in amazement
I swear Yangyang lives to be corrupted
Heâs not even that innocent I think heâs just a kinky kind of guy who comes off as vanilla but really just wants to get corrupted
Like if youâd be a top and/or dom for him that would be his favorite thing
You could give him a look and heâd get hard
Anyways I think it would start with him telling you that heâs taking a break from dating
Thereâs an awkward silence and he mentions heâs a virgin
Things get a little awkward but when he starts asking about what girls like, you tell him
This leads to a shy kiss, followed by an awkward silence before he just says âdo that againâ and you end up hooking up
The next morning you tell him not to tell anyone
Of course he canât help but tell the boys
Xiaojun
Didnât realize how long this one was getting lol
Completely unspoken, like actually donât say a word about it to him or itâs ruined
Youâve probably never spoken to him outside the bedroom
Probably in the same friend group but never really talked to him so itâs more like you have mutual friends
Started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Ok but in all seriousness youâd probably be at a party. Youâre pretty drunk and he comes over & offers you a drink
Youâre like âwhatâs thisâ before you smell it and realize heâs sober & itâs water
You realize heâs trying to take care of you and end up talking with him off in a corner
You talk about how youâve never really talked to him before
Thereâs a short awkward silence. He starts to lean in, you quickly pick up on his move and end up making out in the corner
You run into him a couple of times by accident and always end up finding a secluded space where you make out
Somehow Ten finds out youâve been sleeping with one of his roommates
âItâs Lucas isnât it??â He says rolling his eyes. You tell him no and he keeps guessing until he guesses Xiaojun last and you respond with silence.
One time at dinner youâre sitting with the whole group enjoying a meal and Ten hints that youâve been seeing someone
Xiaojun is sitting next to you and whispers a little too loudly, âDid you tell Ten??â
Yangyang who is sitting next to him hears what he said and looks over to see the intense way youâre looking at each other and his face turns to a smirk
He doesnât say anything but later that night when everyone else has gone to bed, Yangyang walks into the kitchen and turns on the light to find you making out yet again
Slowly the rest of the group catches on and realizes
Xiaojun quickly catches feelings, like definitely canât get you out of his head after your first time
The way Hendery finds out is walking in on the rest of the group is talking about how he should tell you he likes you
Heâs like âwait whatâs going on?â And Yangyang just goes âJunnie here has been sleeping with y/n and now has feelings for themâ
Winwin
I apologize in advance this is gonna be another soft one
Youâre FWB but not in the way most people are
Like you havenât slept together, you just make out sometimes and he treats you like his s/o when the other members arenât around
He does little things when the other members are in the room like holds your hand under the dining table and rests his hand on your thigh
The only reason youâre FWB and not actually dating is because youâre both too nervous to ask the other what you are, in fear of ruining what you have
One day youâre just like âfuck itâ and ask him what you guys are
âWe havenât talked about it, but I guess itâs up to both of us.â
Thereâs a bit of an awkward silence but then you proceed to tell him heâs basically treated you like his girl/boyfriend.
He sighs. âI like you. I do.â
You take his hand and intertwine your fingers with his
âSicheng, are you saying you wanna be my boyfriend?â
Heâs still stunned that this conversation is even happening. âI think so,â he says.
Thereâs another awkward pause before you say âSo Sicheng, will you be my boyfrienââ
He doesnât even let you finish your question. He quickly mumbles a âyesâ before passionately kissing you, cupping your face in his hands

Once Upon A Time Rewatch: 6x18 Where Bluebirds Fly
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/af736851eaaed1f36658e0956c983878/daa60baae8a29ce7-dc/s540x810/b1eadef973b732579e465aca5b2d1708640e6997.jpg)
Whoop! Whoop! Zel Zel centric!
The yellow brick road! I wish the characters had an adventure in Oz so weâd get to explore it a bit more like we did Wonderland and Neverland.
Back off! Leave young Zel alone! Is magic not a common thing in Oz?
Aww this friendship is adorable. I kinda wish his name was Boq though to tie in with Wickedâs tin man, but they already included Boq.
It always makes me so sad seeing young Zelena. She was so sweet and her father is just the worst! She deserved so much better. She must have gotten her kindness from the little time she spent with her adoptive mothers, cause goodness knows her other three parents are evil. If she was raised by Cora to be Queen, Iâm not sure sheâd have had the heart to rule through fear like Cora no doubt would have wanted.
Get off baby Robin, you bitch!âŻ
No you canât hold her a little longer.
The Black Fairy: âI never grow tired of that new baby smell.â She is so freaking creepy.
Sheâs manipulating you, Zelly!
To be fair Zelena was almost that level of creepy when it came to Snowingâs baby back in s3.âŻ
Lol. Poor Snow.
Okay. It is pretty adorable that Snow has been planning Emmaâs wedding since after the first curse haha.
Help! Snowâs being super adorabubble!!
The fact that Zelena is probably Belleâs closest friend at this point lol. Poor Belle. I wish the others cared about her more but I do enjoy her dynamic with Zelena.
Zelena, donât do it, girl!
Another entrance to the mines?
Other than Stanum (probably breifly) and briefly Glinda (the two-faced biatch) I donât think Zelena has ever had any friends. She just had her horrible father growing up and that was it, no wonder she craved love so much. Sheâs always been alone and has known only hatred for something she canât control (her magic).
Oh, so the Witch of the North is wicked too? Interesting. I wonder if she fell out with Glinda or Glinda turned on her too. I wanna know more about the Wicked Witch of the North! And heck, I wanna know what happened to the Witch of the East too!
Reginaâs come to save sis!
God, these two fighting like children again lol.
Even though theyâre fighting, Reginaâs instinct is still to protect big sis from falling rock.
Getting married at Grannyâs lol. But donât they end up getting married on top of Grannyâs or something?
David still not over Whale. Dude, you almost got Kathryn pregnant! You know what, itâs really messed up that they slept with others while cursed, even though they wouldnât have if they werenât under its influence.âŻ
I think that deep down, Zelena just wanted a mother again. We still donât know when her adoptive mother died but I think Zelena was really young. She was the only person to show her love and since Zelena going back in time may not prevent her death, she is desperate to find that love again from her other mother. She will do anything to have that again and thatâs why sheâs often so desperate to prove herself, she thinks power is the only way to win Coraâs affections. Itâs the only thing that will make her mother, the only person she believes can love her, show her the love she so desperately craves.
Itâs the king of the forest!âŻ
Why is a Lion in a forest? Or tigers? Iâm not even gonna ask.
Is Gideon more powerful than Regina? He knocked her down pretty easily.âŻ
The Black fairy playing hide and seek with the Wicked Witch of the West.
Go Zel Zel!
This scene is so cool!
The Black Fairy can deflect magic? Weird that Blue hasnât been shown to do that. I guess they have different power sets.
There Regina goes again. She is getting flipped around so easily today lol.
Yes! Thank you! Zelena is stronger than Regina confirmed. I was afraid they were going back on what theyâd established in s3. Sheâs supposed to be more powerful than Cora, according to Rumple, who I think is easily more powerful than Regina. Iâm gonna do a magic ranking one day.âŻ
Magic is really affected by emotions. So because Zelenaâs emotions are unstable, that makes her magic unstable? Interesting. I love it being connected to their emotions.âŻ
Whatâs she using Zelenaâs magic to do?
That lion is huge!
Oh, she made it into a scaredy cat. I wonder if it can talk.
Donât say that Regina. Zelena needs you. You need each other deep down. Just wait till s7, youâll be besties then!
Even though Reginaâs hypocrisy this season gets to me a lot, Iâm glad that Regina and Zelenaâs sisterhood was tested and they didnât instantly become besties. It makes their friendship all the more real and worth the ride in s7.
Snow: âAnd if she wanted to get married in a bathroom it would be perfect and exactly what itâs supposed to be.â Oh my God lmao! That would have been the best!âŻ
Umm, how did the crystal summon a tornado portal?
I misremembered. I thought Stanum knew it would drain her magic but he seems like heâs telling the truth that he didnât.
Heâll be alright. Dorothy will help him.
But what will she do with the crystals?âŻ
Zelena: âYouâre all Iâve got, Regina.â
I actually want to cry. This was so brave of Zelena. You can tell how much the idea of destroying her magic breaks her. It is a part of her. Sheâs had it since the day she was born. Can you imagine ripping away something that is that ingrained in who you are and have always been? It makes me so upset but it was important for her development.âŻ
I wanna hug Zelena!âŻ
It looks painful. I imagine it would be ripping away a part of yourself like that.âŻ
Aww Regina is so proud of her sis and hugs her. I canât!!
God I was so distraught when they took Zelenaâs magic. You donât understand. I think I still would be extremely distraught if she hadnât gotten magic back in s7. The important thing was, much like Harry Potter meant to die when Voldemort struck him in the Deathly Hallows, Zelena meant for her magic to be gone forever and that is a bigger sacrifice for her than anyone will ever understand, akin to sacrificing her life. I wasnât sure she ever would get it back but I wish Robin hadnât given up her magic. It was very nice of her to do that for her mother, whoâs magic was such an important part of her life but can you imagine mother and daughter and Alice and Robin kicking ass with their magic. In my head, Robin gets magic back a short time after the s7 finale.âŻ
Why oh why didnât we get more of a Black Fairy and Blue Fairy interaction in Storybrooke? At least we get some in the flashbacks next week.
She really hates her.
I canât remember why Rumple canât know why his mother gave him up. Guess Iâll find out soon!
This was such a great and important episode for my girl, Zelena. So proud of her. What an emotional rollercoaster!âŻ

Could y'all write an Arthur fic with the reader being a fan and got sucked into the game and kinda mouthed off to colm and gets himself captured :O
This was really fun lol
âââ
âWell,â
You turn in circles, putting your hands on your hips. âAt least I donât have to worry about taxes.â
The people in town stare, obviously, and whisper, but they donât point and they donât yell or do something else mean someone from modern day Detroit would do. Youâre not exactly blending in with your current clothes.
But really...what the fuck? Last thing you remember is turning the gaming console off, taking a shower, then you think you hit your head when you stumbled but it definitely wasnât hard enough to send you through time???
You reach the edge of the dusty town and pause, looking over the vast land. Nice fields. No factories in sight. You try to remember every little detail...sat on the left side of the couch...used the controller to turn the console on...picked the game-
...
Oh shit.
Of course.
You were playing the second Red Dead Redemption.
Balls, how in the-!
Itâs fine, itâs fine. This is cool, actually.
You donât bother to hide your grin and unbelieving laugh, raking your hands through your hair. This is cool as shit! You were so interested in the 19-20th century anyway and to be *living* in it?! Damn. But weâre you just in the century, or was I in the game too?
You turn back to the small town and take a good look around, eyes falling onto a large white parlor house. Itâs Rhodes! Incredible. Excited like a little kid on Christmas, you hurriedly make your way back into town, taking everything in and spinning in circles like some lunatic.
The general store, the gun shop with that guy locked in the basement- wait a minute.
When in the game was it? If you were magically set in Rhodes wouldnât that mean the gang was at the camp by the lake? Whatâs it called, Clemens Point? Clement? But you didnât really know how to get there from here, and even if you did somehow manage to find it, youâd likely be shot on sight. But youâre inside your favorite game. It only makes sense youâd want to meet and bond with the main characters.
With a stomach full of butterflies, you set off onto the road leading out of town, hoping to stumble upon something- or someone.
âââ
God, it was hot. Why was it so hot? Damn sun, making me all sweaty and gross. Donât you have better things to do?
Pulling at your collar, you stop to rest for a few minutes, surrounded by the tall trees. Okay, thereâs the water, the stones, old dilapidated church or whatever that is, the sound of a gun cocking, the nice breeze- wait.
âPut your hands up, boy.â
Great. Great. Great. You put your hands up by your head, mentally cursing yourself and everyone whoâs ever existed. You didnât know that voice and that voice didnât know you.
âYou got any cash? Jewelry? Guns?â
âNo, I donât. I got nothing.â
âBullshit, turn around!â
Slowly turning, youâre met with the barrel of a gun and a very rowdy-looking man. Two other men with guns also pointed at you are a few feet behind him.
âI know you got somethin, your clothes are reeeeeal fancy mister.â
âYou can check, but I ainât got nothin, mister.â Yeah. Thatâs right. You tried to make yourself sound more cowboy-y, and by the looks of it, he bought it. He did look kinda dumb. No offense, cowboy. Or whatever you were.
The dirty man scoffs. âYou ainât-â
âCome on now boy, it wouldnât be smart to hide things from us now would it?â
Another guy? Damn, was he hot at least- ohhhhhh. Ohhhhh shit. Oh shit oh shit.
Colm OâDriscoll stares you right in the face, a small, evil smirk on his own. Ugly fucker.
âWeâll ask you again, friend. Do you got anything?â
âI said no damnit! God do your looks match your brain?? Horrible?? Well that wasnât a very good insult but damn you fugly!!â
The men glance at each other white you babble on.
âMy grandpa looks finer than you and heâs dust! Ha! Musty motherfucker- you look like my foot!â
âEnough outta you!â
Colm OâDick grabs you by the front of your collar and yanks you forward, pushing you onto the dirt.
âTie him up and bring him back. Maybe weâll cut out that dirty little tongue of his.â
Damn.
âââ
Ugh, shit.
The throbbing in your head blurs your vision for several moments. When you finally blink it away, you whine and hang your head from the numerous spots of pain blooming all over your body. Hanging from your bloodied worthâs in just your underwear, feet barley brushing the dirt-covered floor. You remember what happened last night. They beat you, burned you, poked and prodded, nearly poisoned you if Colm hadnât stopped them, saying something like âit would kill him too quick.â
Damn, if this was how it was always gonna be, you wanted to go back home.
You didnât know what time it was. Or if it was any more than just a day. You were in some kind of cracked stone walled, rat shit covered basement. A single candle is lit on the blood stained table with a variety of things that make you go âouch.â
Using nearly all your strength to lift your head, you try to find a door or something else you could crawl through. Thereâs a moldy door in front of you. Seemingly unlocked.
âGod, I canât get down,â you mumble, nearly out of hope. This was supposed to be your story! Your special adventure! Filled with love and drama and literally anything but you getting tortured by men who stink like piss!
The door suddenly starts clicking, and you squeeze your eyes shut the best you can. Was it the dirty men? Or your hero? Heroine? A crazy hermit? The door swings aside, making you cautiously crack your heavy eyes open. Oh please be hot please be hot please be-
âHey! They got someone!â
Hot.
Your jaw nearly embarrassingly falls open as a man in a pretty blue shirt puts his gun down and pulls out a knife. Hot murder man? Yes please-
âYou a prisoner?â
âSure,â is all you manage.
The man comes closer to cut the ropes suspending you and yes, like in the movies, you canât really hold yourself up therefore fall forward again the chest of the wow youâre buff.
âYou alright, boy?â
Call me that again please.
âFine, fine.â
Hands gripping the sleeves of the pretty blue shirt, your lift your head to see your hunk of a hero, only to come face-to-face the Arthur fucking Morgan.
Of course, thatâs when you pass out.
âââ
âIs he dead?â
âWhat? No Jack, he ainât dead.â
âBut heâs all bloody.â
âDamn OâDriscollâs. Heâs just a boy. Lennyâs age.â
Youâre like, 23 thank you very much.
âWhatâre we supposed to do with him?â
âHeâs nearly dead, we gotta keep him here for now. Now shoo! All you got chores! Get!â
Something warm and wet yet scratchy is dabbed onto your forehead and a few spots around your face, making you sigh lightly.
Your eyes felt like heavy weights, but you eventually got them open. You wanted to see what was going on really badly.
A Susan Grimshaw. In your face.
Your eyes widen only barely and a very unattractive noise sounding like a confused cat escaped your mouth. The old womanâs brow furrows.
âHush, boy. I ainât hurting you.â
Blinking, you look around without moving your head. You were in a tent, on a cot, in your underwear, a random shirt that went past your butt, Iâm keeping this forever, and your body hurt very much.
âIâm alright, maâam,â you look into Grimshawâs pretty eyes.
She huffs. âLike hell. But fine, you can get up. Nothings broken.â
She leaves the tent, making you slowly swing your bare legs over the side and hoist yourself up, staggering out as well.
âUgh,â shielding your eyes from the harsh sun, you take a deep breath that makes your chest ache. Welcome to the 19th century, (M/n).
âYouâre awake, my boy. How are you feeling?â
Itâs too early for this shi-
Never mind itâs never too early for Dutch Van der Linde.
You nod, blinking up at the raven-haired man.
âJust fine, sir. Thank you for saving me. I thought I was a goner.â
âNo thanks needed, my boy. I got a sayinâ: we shoot fellers as need shooting, save fellers as need saving, and feed âem as need feeding. Iâm sure we all know, just what you need.â
You really just heard that.
âOh, I have an idea.â
Dutch laughs, patting your shoulder. âMr. Pearson! Get this fine boy some food! Whatâs your name, son?â
â(M/n). (M/n) (L/n).â
âWell Mr. (L/n), do you mind telling us what you were doing all bloody and bruised in Colm OâDriscollâs basement?â He uses the hand on your shoulder to guide you further to the center of camp.
âI got captured once they realized I didnât have any money. They beat me good.â
âYes, well, letâs hope nothing of the sort ever happens again.â
Pearson comes over and places a hot bowl of stew in your shaky hands, nodding at you before heading off.
âLadies! Would you please help (M/n) get some food in his belly, heâs not too good right now,â
Mary-Beth hurries over, cupping your hands around the bowl to keep it from falling. âCourse, Dutch. Come along now...â
âââ
âOkay, you can do this, come on. You know everything about him! Everything...about...them...â
You shake your head to get rid of the negative thoughts, straightening your back. âOkay, letâs go.â
You keep your eyes locked on Arthur, your target, as you march over to where heâs sitting on his bed, nose buried in his journal. Wow this is really happening-
âExcuse me?â
Way to sound like a 14 year old girl (M/n). Your heart nearly stops once the burly man looks up, blue-green eyes meeting your own. He doesnât say anything, only stares at you expectingly. You wrong to hands nervously.
âUm...I just wanted to say thank you. For helping me, you know.â
He nods. âYouâre welcome.â
You panic, not wanting to lose his attention.
âDutch said I could stay! With you...er, with the gang! Dutch said I could stay with the gang, they donât really see me as a threat, so...â your voice trails off.
âWell, thatâs great. Theyâre good people, donât mess it up.â
âOf course! Iâm very grateful, I just...was hoping I could see more of you...?â
No, you definitely werenât asking him out. Yet.
Arthur looks at you weirdly, before quietly chuckling and turning back to his journal.
âSure, kid.â
Iâm in love.
âââ
That night, the gang is celebrating a new edition. You werenât like Kieran. You werenât nothing bad, neither. Most of them actually trust you already. Thankfully. Those who donât, werenât celebrating. Or it was all just an excuse to get blackout drunk
You believed it to be the latter when you left the log by the fire and no one noticed. Everyone kept singing and âcelebrating.â Pausing by one of the tents, you slightly duck back behind it. The radio in Dutchâs tent was quietly singing an opera song, and Dutch and Miss Molly OâShea weâre gently dancing along, gazing into each otherâs eyes with the look of the lovers. Good for them. They deserve it. It makes you smile sadly.
You retreat and continue looking around all the tents and everything. Whereâs Arthur? He wasnât at the fire. Heâs not in his tent either. Or, wagon. Lean-to? Whatever, but you canât find him. You circle around the edge of camp for a bit until you find him behind the big tree near the horses.
âArthur?â
He looks away from the sky and at you.
âHey, (M/n).â
âHey Arthur,â you take a few steps closer. âNot a party person?â
He shrugs. âNot tonight, I guess.â
âThatâs a shame. I was...hoping youâd might care to dance? With me?â
It takes him a few moments to realize just what you said but once he does, he open his mouth in surprise.
âWhat?â
You hold out a hand, giving him a mischievous grin.
He shakes his head, looking away for a moment before back at you, pushing himself off the tree.
âWhat the hell.â
When he takes your hand, it feels like it was meant to be. Where you were meant to be. When you were meant to be! Call you crazy, but with this? Dancing to nearly inaudible music with a fictional cowboy on the outskirts of the camp containing the people that saved you from other fictional outlaws? You never wanted anything more.
