Series Masterlist

Growing up as your father’s heir, you had to memorize certain rules.

Honoring the alliances was one of them. No family could survive on its own in this line of work against all the others, and it was a matter of honor not to cross or go behind your allies.

Not putting civilians in danger was another. The business and its deals or disagreements could only affect the people who chose to be in it, civilians were always off limits.

But the most important rule that was drilled into your and every heir’s head?

Never, ever do anything to break the truce.

“Y/N?”

Your head shot up and you tried to smile at Becca. “Yeah?”

“Are you okay?”

No.

No you really weren’t.

What you and Bucky were planning was way too dangerous, which meant that you couldn’t say that to anyone, Becca included.

“Sure!” you said as Leila came back to the table, carrying coffees.

“Thanks babe,” Becca pecked her on the lips and she smiled at her.

“Not a problem!” she said. “So, is there any reason why you look so gloomy, Y/N?”

Shit.

“Gloomy?” you asked with a small laugh. “I don’t look gloomy.”

“Is Ethan being his tortured lover self again?”

“He’s not—” you stopped yourself. “I haven’t talked to him in a while actually.”

“Bucky then?”

“Oh is this about that girl you told me about?” Becca asked. “Anna?”

You blinked a couple of times. “Uh…”

“Anna?” Leila asked and Becca waved a hand in the air.

“This incredibly hot woman Bucky is doing business with.”

“Did I say she was incredibly hot?”

“You said hot and I stalked her,” Becca said helpfully, “She is incredibly hot.”

“Thanks a lot Bec,” you muttered and Leila tilted her head.

“Let me see!”

“I’m not gloomy because of Anna,” you said and paused for a moment. “Although, Bucky does have a meeting with her today.”

“Here,” Becca said, handing her the phone and Leila raised her brows, staring at the screen before licking her lips.

“Maybe she just has a terrible personality.”

“You guys are the best,” you muttered and Becca let out a laugh.

“We’re joking, obviously you’re hotter.”

“For some reason I highly doubt that,” you pointed out and Leila rolled her eyes at you.

“You are,” she said. “But jealousy is less about looks and more about the vibes.”

“I’m not jealous!” you said, your voice going a pitch higher before you cleared your throat. “I wasn’t even thinking about her until you brought her up.”

“Then what—” Becca started but your phone started vibrating on the table, making you grimace when your eyes fell on the caller ID.

“Excuse me for a moment,” you said and grabbed your phone, then walked out of the café to answer it. “Auntie?”

“Y/N hi honey!” her cheerful voice reached you. “I hope I’m not interrupting anything?”

“Nah, I’m just with my friends,” you said and she hummed.

“Well then, clear out your schedule for the afternoon because we’re having an aunt-niece lunch,” she said, making your eyes widen.

“Oh I actually—I had this thing—”

“I already made the reservation, I’ll send you the details,” she cut off your stammering. “See you in two hours!”

With that, she hung up and you threw your head back, letting out a groan.

“Great,” you muttered to yourself. “Just what I needed today.”

                                                       *

Of course your aunt had picked a restaurant in your father’s territory and of course it was already swarming with your father’s people. Unlike you, she had no problem with being followed by bodyguards even if the restaurant seemed to be closed to any other people but you two and the bodyguards, so you tried not to roll your eyes as you sat down, the waitress bringing your food almost immediately. You pulled your brows together and your aunt sat up straighter.

“I ordered for the both of us already,” she said, making you hum.

“Wonderful,” you said. “Thanks.”

“So,” she smiled at you. “I figured today is as good of a day as any to catch up!”

No, today was supposed to be about you having an existential crisis at home, and yet here you were.

“How’s marriage going?”

Jesus Christ.

“It’s going well,” you said curtly before digging into the salad in front of you. “And you? How are you after the break up?”

“Oh,” she waved a dismissive hand. “Let’s not talk about that. Bucky seems like he grew into such a gentleman!”

“Mm hm.”

“And George is happy being retired?”

You thought for a moment, then shrugged your shoulders.

“Bucky is doing a great job,” you said, unaware of the proud tone in your voice. “So yes. He probably does miss being more involved in the business but it’s Bucky’s time now. George knows it.”

“Promising heir turns into successful king, not much of a surprise there,” she commented and you sipped your wine.

“Exactly.”

“And speaking of heirs…” your aunt said, making your eyes shoot up to hers.

Fucking—

Yeah, you had walked right into that.

You knew that everything you said and did, even the smallest reaction would be reported back to either Ian or your father, so you had to keep your calm. Even though anger had started to boil deep inside you, you lowered your wine glass, tilting your head at her.

“Hm?”

“Your father may have mentioned that things between you and him are rather tense lately,” she said. “Especially after him naming Ian as his heir.”

You frowned, feigning confusion before taking your fork into your mouth again.

“I didn’t think they were tense,” you said after swallowing your bite. “Is that what he thinks?”

She paused only for a moment.

“It is,” she said. “And you know how important family is. We don’t always have to see eye to eye, but we do have to support each other.”

“Does father think I won’t support Ian?” you asked silkily and she licked her lips, deep in thought.

“Ian worked really hard to be where he is right now, Y/N,” she said, making you pull your brows together. “I am aware that you might feel some resentment but that position belongs to Ian now. And we as his family must make sure to make his job easier.”

You wanted to laugh at the audacity but managed to keep your expression under control. Of course she supported him, that much wasn’t surprising but—

Ian working for where he was?

He hadn’t even bothered to go through half of the training you had.

“I don’t know why you’re telling me this,” you told her. “It’s father’s job to make Ian’s job easier, he was the one who named him heir. What I think about his decision doesn’t hold any power in this, I’m not in the business—”

“Yes you are.”

You scoffed. “Well, that’s news to me then. Do you know something I don’t?”

She shot you a look.

“You and I both know that some bosses in the city support you to become the heir, not Ian.”

You bit back a smirk and took another sip of your wine.

“Which is normal, outsiders can have different ideas, it’s the family that decides on the heir,” she said. “But Bucky…Bucky is family now.”

You shrugged your shoulders. “I don’t control Bucky.”

“Yes you do,” she insisted. “And Bucky doesn’t necessarily like Ian, does he?”

The realization dawned on you in a second; your father hadn’t put your aunt up to this.

Ian had, because he felt threatened by Bucky.

Which in all honesty was a bit insulting, because even with other bosses supporting you to become the heir, he still didn’t think you yourself were a viable threat to him.

You pushed at your salad with your fork, pretending to be nonchalant.

“Strange as it may sound, me and Bucky don’t really spend our time talking about Ian,” you said and your aunt heaved a sigh, then reached out to clasp her hand over yours.

“Honey,” she said. “You know what will happen if a war breaks out.”

“Tell that to Ian, not me,” you said. “He seemed to be very interested in a war the last time we spoke. I know what happens if a war breaks out, does he?”

“He’s still very excited to prove himself,” she said, making you clench your jaw. “So he may come across a bit… wild but he will not start a war.”

“Funny how everyone around him seems to have to make excuses for him.”

“So many people died before the truce,” she insisted. “So many families. I know that your father promised you that position, but you cannot set the whole city on fire just because he changed his mind. Ian is the heir now, you and everyone else need to make your peace with it.”

Anger was pulsing through your veins and you dug your fingernails into your palm, then pushed at your plate and stood up.

“I have this thing, so…”

“Y/N—”

“And for the record, I’m not setting the whole city on fire,” you told her. “Make sure to hear the same thing from Ian, will you? Because from the looks of it, people aren’t that thrilled to do business with him when he’s been foaming at the mouth to start a war.”

With that, you walked out of the restaurant with your bodyguards following you.

                                              *

As much as you hated to admit, your aunt’s words did manage to make you even more restless. You had tried to take a nap but it was no use, and by the time Bucky got home, you had been pacing in the apartment for almost an hour now. He had some blood on him so he had gone straight to the bathroom to take a long shower, and when he came back, he found you by the window, your gaze fixed on the skyline.

“Hey beautiful.”

You looked over your shoulder and tried to smile at him.

“Hey,” you said. “Whose blood was it?”

“Some idiot,” he said. “Not important. Are you okay?”

“How was the meeting with Anna?”

“It was good, everything is going pretty smoothly. Are you okay?”

You turned around to see him better, then nodded your head.

“Sure!” you said. “There’s uh…there’s dinner in the—”

“What’s going on?” he cut you off, stepping closer to you and you heaved a sigh, then shrugged your shoulders.

“Nothing, it’s just…it’s been a long day.”

“I thought you were meeting Becca today.”

“I did,” you said. “Then my aunt asked to have lunch together so that totally ruined my day.”

He raised his brows. “What did she say?”

“Usual bullshit,” you said. “She wants me to support Ian.”

Bucky snorted. “Yeah, that’s gonna happen.”

“And Ian is intimidated by you.”

“Good,” Bucky said. “Does he also know the only reason he’s alive is because of the truce he’s been so excited to break? Someone should let him know.”

“He thinks he’s untouchable, you know that,” you said with a roll of your eyes. “He doesn’t even carry a gun, he’s that sure of himself. Ryan carries his gun for him.”

Bucky threw his head back. “Does he—” he started but was cut off when his phone vibrated on the table. Your heart skipped a beat as he read the text message, then held up the phone.

“So…” he said. “Are we doing this tonight?”

You swallowed thickly, your heartbeat getting faster before you ran a hand over your face.

“Bucky, is this a mistake?”

He tilted his head. “Why would it be a mistake?”

“We’re ordering a hit on a shipment,” you whispered. “That’s breaking the truce.”

“Eh, it’s not like they’ll know who did it.”

“But if they somehow figure it out?” you insisted as you stepped away from him to pace in the room again. “I keep telling myself Ian is the wrong choice, but what does it say about me that I’m willing to risk war? That I’m willing to risk so much bloodshed just to get there?”

“That you have what it takes.”

“Do I?” you asked him. “At that cost? You heard the same thing I did while we were growing up, over and over again. Never break the truce—”

“We’re not breaking the truce,” he assured you. “No one will know it’s us, and even if they did somehow figure it out; your father will kill me on grounds of breaking the truce sweetheart, nothing will happen to you.”

Even the thought of it was enough to send a shiver down your spine.

“Don’t say that,” you murmured, rubbing at your eyes. “Just don’t.”

He shot you a playful smile. “I thought you wanted me dead.”

“If I wanted you dead, you’d be dead,” you grumbled as you approached the window to look outside again. “It just feels…”

“Overwhelming?” he asked you as he came closer before his hands clasped over your shoulders, massaging there, making your eyes flutter close.

“A little,” you admitted and he hummed.

 “Of course it’s overwhelming, we’re pushing you to the top.”

You opened your eyes again, then turned around to look at him better.

“Why are you risking your own life for this?”

“Because I want to see you at the top of the food chain,” he said, then flashed you a smirk. “And on top of me but—”

“Bucky,” you said warningly as if that didn’t make your stomach do a happy flip despite the tension and he chuckled.

“Because unlike what your father seems to think, you’re the right choice for this.”

“And you still think that about me even if I’m putting the truce in danger right now?” you asked and his smile widened.

“You could shoot me right now and I’d still think that, princess.”

You nibbled on your lip, a warmth spreading in your chest before you let out a bitter chuckle.

“We’re both fucked up, you do realize that?”

“I know,” he said. “But fucked up or not, will you be alright when Ian inevitably burns your father’s empire down? The empire that belongs to you?”

You swallowed thickly as he ran his fingertips over your bare arm, awakening fire underneath your skin.

“Stop playing by your father’s rules,” he said, his voice a low murmur. “It’s your game now, you make the rules.”

You pursed your lips together before taking a deep breath, then looked up at him.

“Give the order.”

Bucky smiled at you, then touched the phone’s screen before taking it to his ear.

“Do it,” he said, then hung up, making you let out a breath, your head spinning because of the adrenaline rushing through you. Bucky stepped closer to press a kiss on your temple and you rested your forehead on his chest for a moment, letting his irresistible scent fill your nostrils.

“You’re alright.”

“I’m alright,” you muttered to his chest and pulled back to nod your head as if trying to convince yourself. “I am.”

“You are,” Bucky said, then smiled at you. “So let’s get drinks and dessert, hm? To celebrate your first ever hit order in the business?”

A nervous laughter climbed up your throat. “What?”

“Yeah I’ll even put a candle on the champagne— or on the cake, I haven’t decided yet,” he told you, pulling you by the wrist through the room while you giggled.

“Bucky wait, I need to do my makeup if we’re going out—”

“Less whining more walking princess, come on,” he said and you snatched your coat off the hanger as you walked past it, then followed him out of the apartment, still smiling.

Joseph Quinn X Fem!Reader

thank you @choke-me-joey for answering all my stupid annoying pregnancy questions for this

this is based off of a JQ dream i had that i did NOT want to wake up from

TW: i don’t think theres any warnings other than RPF (don’t like it, don’t read it), and pregnancy??

You and Joe had taken a trip to America to visit your family, as it would be the last time you could fly before the baby came. Your family made a big deal out of it since you rarely got time to visit with your daughter and Joes busy schedule.

You could see your family gathered in the living room as the three of you pulled into the driveway. Joe took care of the luggage while you carried your daughter to the front porch.

Your dad spotted you from the window and raced to the door to greet you.

“My two favorite girls!” He pulls you in for a hug as you set your daughter down, Joe trailing close behind. “And my favorite son in law!” He pulls Joe in for a hug too, patting his back before taking the bags from him.

“You only have one son in law dad.” You chuckle, hobbling into the house.

“That’s why he’s my favorite.” Your dad responds before making his way to your bedroom to set your bags down.

You’re greeted with lots of hugs and kisses from the whole family, and fondling of your protruding belly.

“How far along are you?” Your cousin asks.

“Just over 7 months.” You smile, watching her rub her hand over your stomach.

“I can’t wait to see him.” She smiles back.

“Neither can we.” You look up at Joe and he smiles, placing a small peck on your lips.

“And how old is this little one now?” She bends down to your daughter, who was playing the shy game and covering her face.

“How old are you Leila?” You ask your daughter, and she holds up 3 fingers.

“Three?! Oh my goodness how’d you get so old?” Your cousin tickles Leila earning some giggles. “Well come, sit. You must be exhausted.”

“Yeah its pretty tiring carrying this thing around.” You chuckle, “Where are my brothers?”

“Oh they’re all out back. Grilling, drinking beers, talking about whatever sport they watch.” She laughs, before trotting off into the kitchen.

“Do you want anything to drink baby?” Joe asks.

“Just water is okay.”

“With lemon?”

“You know me so well.” He leans down to kiss you before you take Leila’s hand, dragging her outside to visit with her uncles and cousins.

“Sister!!” Your brother, Jack yells with his arms in the air.

“Brother!!” You embrace him in a hug while his wife Anna scoops Leila up in her arms, giving her raspberries all over making her giggle loudly with joy.

“You look like you’re about to pop.” He jokes, softly patting your stomach.

“Yeah, feel like it too. Where’s my niece and nephew?” You ask, and he points to the yard. You bring Leila with you to say your hello’s.

“Auntie!!” They both yell, running up to give you a hug.

“Hey guys. What are we playing?” You ask them.

“Jump rope! I can do 23 in a row.” Your niece proudly tells you.

“Wow 23?! You must be on your way to the olympics by now, huh?” You scratch her head as she laughs.

“Not quite, but almost. You wanna play with us?” She asks you, holding the rope in her hand.

“Oh i’d love to but I can’t. Belly’s too big. But i’m sure Leila here would love to. Just go easy on her ‘kay?” You smile down at your daughter, motioning for her to join them.

You return to your brothers and their wives by the grill, as Joe hands you your glass of water.

“Hungry?” Anna asks, directing the question at both you and Joe. You nod, grabbing two plates to fix you and him something to eat.

-

Once everyone has pigged out on the barbecue, you take a seat on the couch in the living room, catching up with your mom and the other ladies of your family. Joe is outside with the boys, watching Leila play with her cousins in the yard.

“How’s the pregnancy this time honey?” Your mom asks, sipping on her wine.

“Ugh its awful.” You say, earning laughs from everyone. “I’m so much bigger this time, and more emotional. I feel sorry for Joe, but he’s been so great to me.” You smile, rubbing your belly.

“Well i’m sure it’s nothing he can’t handle hun. He’d have to be a patient person if he’s with you.” Your mom laughs.

“God I know! I was such a little shit when i was younger wasn’t I?” You think back to what you were like before Joe. Constantly sneaking out, hanging out with the wrong people, dating the wrong guys.

“I’m just glad you found such a good man. I was worried there for a second.”

You and your mom both chuckle, as he gets up to refill her glass. You lean back on the couch, resting your eyes for a moment before you feel a little tap on your knee.

“Mommy will you come play kitchen with me?” Leila asks with her big brown eyes. She looks so much like Joe. A curly mop of golden brown hair, those puppy dog eyes, and perfectly round lips. She makes the same face he does when he’s trying to get his way, and as much as you want to say yes, you’re physically exhausted and just want to lay down.

“It’s almost bedtime baby, we can play tomorrow.” You tell her.

“Pleaseeee mommy?” Joe walks in just as she starts to beg.

“Hey pumpkin, how about I come play with you til bedtime? Give mommy some time to rest okay?” Leila agrees and starts dragging Joe back outside. You mouth him a thank you and blow him a kiss before going back to conversing with your mom.

-

About 30 minutes later, your family starts to part ways. Exchanging lots of see you soon’s and good luck’s regarding your pregnancy.

You’ve fully taken up one of the couches by sprawling your whole body across it, trying to find some kind of relief on the weight in your lower back.

Your mom and dad are cleaning up in the kitchen, insisting that you stay on the couch instead of helping.

“Where’s Joe?” You ask them.

“Oh I think he went to put Leila down for the night. Really wore her out.” Your dad responds, putting the leftover food in the fridge.

“Good. Sometimes I swear she’s got the energizer bunny inside of her.” You laugh, laying back down.

Almost on cue, Joe comes back in, asking your parents if they need help as they usher him away. He makes his way to you, “Can you spare a spot?” You lift the top half of your body as much as you can, and he takes a seat. You lay your head on his lap and he begins rubbing your shoulders and playing with your hair.

“Hey.” You speak. He looks down at you, pulling your hair out of the way so he can see your face. “I love you.” He smiles, kissing your forehead.

“I love you more. Thank you.”

“For what?”

“Giving me this life. Giving me a family. This is all i’ve ever wanted, and i get to do it with you. Forever.” You smile, grabbing his cheek and rubbing it with your thumb.

“I’d do anything for you, you know that? You’re my favorite boy.”

“Don’t let little man hear you.” He chuckles, rubbing your bump.

You pull him down for a kiss, and you hear the noise of a camera shutter behind you. You both turn to see your parents standing there, grinning from ear to ear with their phones held out. Joe laughs and you shoot your mom a look.

“Just capturing the moment sweetie.”

@paperclippedmime Since there are some I haven’t developed as much as I’d prefer, I have a list of the crossover ships I have put very much thought into.

Disclaimer for everyone though:  Some of the ships are going on the assumption that they are around the same age as each other. So if there’s any canon info that could change things, I’m fine with being made aware so I can rethink them. ALSO THERE ARE SOME POLY SHIPS, so if you don’t like those...I’m sorry but I'm not.

Gonna start with the ships I’ve had since my high school days

1. Hiei from Yu Yu Hakusho X Lacus Clyne from Gundam Seed.  I found a fanfiction where Lacus was in the YYH world and their opposite personalities made it very fun for me.

2. Ivan/Ian from Beyblade X Kisa from Fruits Basket.  This came from a massive crossover RP I did with my friend Hunter.  It started platonic but evolved into a cute school romance.

3. Eve from Black Cat X Daichi from Beyblade.  Pretty much the same as above.

4. Johann from Yu Gi Oh GX X Tamao from Shaman King. I felt bad for Tamao, since she had a crush on Yoh (who was very obviously going to end up with Anna), so I wanted to find someone who would be supportive of her.  Johann ended up being that guy, due to his supportive nature.

4. Joey Wheeler from Yu Gi Oh X Jun from Shaman King.  My thought process was they both have younger siblings they care greatly for and were willing to fight to protect them.  So, they could bond over that and help each other

5. Jason Todd from Batman X Leo from Tekken.  The two of them have a vendetta, so why not work together to get what they want. And then they develope....FEELINGS. Plus, now that I’ve had more time to think about it, I think Bruce would probably welcome Leo into the Bat fam as an ally.

6.  Tala from Beyblade X Blair Flannigan from Yu Gi Oh GX.  This one came out of nowhere for me, to be honest.  It was definitly an opposite attracts story in my head (Note: I have since added Julia from Beyblade to the equation, as I headcanon Blair as Bi and I enjoy the Tala X Julia ship)

And now for some of the newer developed ships.  Most, if not all, are from a crossover story I have in my brain that keeps changing.

1. Dario from Fire Emblem Warriors and Sophie from Atelier Sophie.  They have become my disaster couple because Dario cannot contain how curious he is about her work, and Sophie is #tired of his bad boy tendencies.

2.  Leila from Fire Emblem Heroes X Toyohisa Shimazu from Drifters.  Pretty much the same as above, though it was going from enemies/bad terms to allies to friends to lovers

3. Moss from Generator Rex X Bella from Dragalia Lost.  Honestly, I just love the idea of a criminal and a princess/noble lady hooking up. I blame Tangled.

4. Sundance Kid from Drifters X Luka from Voltron.  The two sympathize with each other, due to finding themselves in a place that they don’t understand, with only one other person they can truly call a friend (Luka didn’t get a lot of development in the show, so I just kinda said “I do what I want” and there you go)

5. Chara from Storyshift!Undertale X Mina from Battle Chef Brigade.  I’m beginning to wonder if this one actually counts since my version of SS!Chara is practically an OC... 

6.  Soren from the Dragon Prince X Durant from Dragalia Lost.  Another started as platonic then ended up being another disaster couple story.

7. Misaki Tokura X Chazz Princeton from Yu Gi Oh GX.  I seem to enjoy having couples that are literally “You’re an idiot, but you’re my idiot.”

8. Velvet from Tales of Berseria X Lucina from Fire Emblem Awakening.  This actually started out as a friendship which evolved into a romance.  There were technically two others in the relationship (it was my first poly ship), but I’m debating if it would make sense

9.  Papyrus from Undertale X Caeldori from Fire Emblem Fates.  I felt like their personalities would mesh very well.  They both are trying to prove themselves to the people they care about and are very serious about justice.

10. Underswap Papyrus X Isolet from King’s Raid.  This was for a Three Houses Crossover AU I ended up abandoning, and was originally suppose to be a rivalry, as Isolet does not like lazy people.  But then I started writing and drawing their relationship and it turned into a ship.

11.  Underswap Sans X Ephraim from Fire Emblem Sacred Stones.  Again from the 3 Houses Au. These two would have been good allies, with a romance developing.

12. Horrortale Sans X Akasha from Dragalia Lost.  I just pictured the two messing with each other and then becoming the couple you are 75% certain may be serial killers.

13. Dante from Devil May Cry X Scathach from Fate Grand Order X Maria of the Astral Clocktower from Bloodborne.  I just feel like they would get along.  If anything, this is a more casual friends with benefits ship than a super romantic one.  Sometimes I add others to the mix, but these are the constants

14.  Qrow and Winter from RWBY X Verica from Dragalia Lost X Kibera from King’s Raid.  After the whole Qrow X Clover thing went south and it seemed like he thought it was fate that he’d be alone, I wanted to give Qrow some love.  And I started drawing him with Kibera and Verica, one who thinks fate is stupid, the other who helps people fight against it.  And I had originally loved Qrow with Winter so yeah.

15.  Cinder Fall from RWBY X Sans from Undertale. This one I think is going to get the most WTFs because “Cinder bad, Sans good”.  The story in which this relationship takes place is one where Cinder is freed from Salem’s influence, and focuses how she tries to be a better person, and learning what true affection looks like.  Sans would be there for her journey and the two would end up together.  Hell, I even made a kid for them!

And with that, those are all the more developed Crossover ships that I have.  I may do another list of the “less developed but I’m working on that” ships later

"Eagles 2022 – Everything about the final season"

This is a translation of a Swedish blog post which you can find here. I don't know if this is an SVT-approved article, but it basically recaps the plot points from last season and gives a run-down of what will be explored in season 4.

Most of it aligns with the season 4 episode descriptions but also confirms additional details, so if you'd rather go in blind when the season premieres I would ignore this post!

At the end of the article I've written a short paragraph of my personal thoughts.

Friday the 28th of January is the premiere of the fourth and final season of Eagles on SVT Play. The final season will touch on how to take command of your own life, orthorexia, and what to do when the life you've gotten used to is shaken up and a new chapter begins. Who gets their dreams fulfilled? Who was shot on New Year's Eve? And will Ludde and Felicia have a happy ending?

The synopsis for Eagles season 4

The last semester of high school has begun and everything should be fantastic. However, the characters are instead faced with transformative events and life choices. Felicia (Alva Bratt) is in rehab after her suicide attempt and she just wants to focus on her well-being and graduate. But the person she needs the most to be able to move on is not there. For Ludvig (Adrian Öjvindsson), the weight of the shooting between Jack (Filip Wolfe Sjunnesson) and his brother Andreas (Oskar Laring) weighs heavy on his shoulders.

Amie (Yandeh Sallah) tries to find the balance between her music career and just being herself. But her record label has completely different plans in mind. Amie and Elias (Edvard Olsson) are also at the beginning of their relationship, but Elias has a completely different focus. He trains manically, keeps a strict diet, and is completely engrossed in achieving his hockey dreams. Whatever it may cost.

Klara (Sarah Gustafsson) feels like she carries the whole of Oskarshamn on her shoulders. The GECED company will be closed down and a large portion of the jobs in town will disappear. Now it's up to Klara to prevent that.

Eagles has been, and will also end, as a drama series about the life choices and emotions teenagers experience. Among these things are first love, friendships, betrayal, and dreams about the future.

SVT Play Friday 28 January at 02.00. The episodes are published in pairs every Friday.

For those who missed the three previous seasons, or want to catch up before the premiere, the episodes can be watched on SVT Play.

The cast in Eagles 2022

Felicia – Alva Bratt Ludvig – Adrian Öjvindsson Amie – Yandeh Sallah Elias – Edvard Olsson Klara – Sarah Gustafsson Naima – Tina Pour Davoy Andreas – Oskar Laring Jack – Filip Wolfe Sjunnesson Mats – Per Lasson Petra – Anna Sise Leila – Charlotta Jonsson Irene – Maria Alm Norell

There's a lot to unpack here, so I'll just go in chronological order and try to keep my thoughts brief.

First off, if the information in this article is accurate, that means the writers are actually going for an eating disorder storyline with Elias. We knew they were doing something with Elias as we had one scene of him overworking himself in the gym and another scene with Mats commenting on the fact that Elias mostly consumes powdered nutrients instead of real food.

I think a storyline like this has potential to really educate the audience. First off, orthorexia nervosa isn't something that's seen that often on TV. On top of that it's even more rare to show a male character with an eating disorder. I'm really interested to see how this will play out, maybe with the focus shifting a little from Felicia's mental health to instead focus on Elias's which has mostly been a question mark throughout the first three seasons.

Speaking of Felicia, the article mentions that she's out of rehab and that the person she needs the most isn't there. This could be either Ludde or Elias, but I'm leaning more towards Elias since he's her brother. Based on the episode descriptions we also know that when Felicia gets home from rehab, Elias is supposedly out partying.

They're keeping the details on the Andreas and Jack situation pretty hush-hush, but that's understandable.

As I've speculated before, Amie and Elias are probably heading for a rough patch now that we know Elias's focus lies more with his training.

This article also confirms that the GECED company is shutting down, but we'll see Klara try to prevent that.

The last thing I'd like to comment on is the cast list. Pretty standard, right? I'm not so sure. After listing the five main characters, there's an additional name wedged between Klara and Andreas (both pretty major characters). That name is Naima, played by an actress called Tina Pour Davoy. It seems that she'll have a significant role to play if she's included in the cast list. Just what that might be remains to be seen.

If you guys have any theories on what this might bring to the table in season 4, I'm very eager to hear them!

Into The Woods Chapter 1

Pairing: Sam Wilson x werewolf!reader

Summary: You always felt home when you were close to the woods. One night in the woods you take a walk and it changes everything. But who is this stranger? And can you trust him?

Series and chapter warnings: Allusion to possible noncon, kidnapping, smut

Word count: ~1300

You and your friends stood at the edge of the forest in the evening. The forest you and your group had known your entire lives. The three other women you were with were the only ones you could bear from your graduation class that had just finished their big reunion. The forest practically glowed in all the fall colors. Red, yellow, orange, one or two still green leaves in between. And the forest glowed despite the darkening sky.

“The colors look so cool! I mean, I always loved fall, you know that and I know I say this every time and every fall but look at the colors! And now, there’s this contrast to the sky; it’s even more beautiful!”

“Y/N, the sky is practically dark, there’s no-“ Leila intervened.

“And the moon! Look at the moon!” You marveled.

“You always say ‘Look at the moon’. Since forever” Anna grinned and bumped your shoulder.

“But today it’s so full and clear. I can even see several craters!”

“Someone ate way too many carrots in her childhood” Kate said.

“Ha-ha” You grinned back.

You ventured deeper into the forest with your friends, going this way and that until Anna asked you what time it was. Indeed, it was rather late and you were the only one who wanted to venture even further, deeper and longer into the woods. So, you were outvoted and turned back to town to get to the little pension you and your friends stayed at. Paying for a room in your hometown when you had moved just outside city limits a few years back might seem excessive but you had known how much you would drink to get through the reunion. About one glass of wine and more shots than you’d care to admit per person you despised. And there were a few of those.

When you stepped away from the tree line, the wind picked up a little. It seemed like it wanted to tell you something. Or the woods.

The next day you woke up late and feeling weird. On the one hand, you had the hangover of your life. No wonder with your alcohol intake yesterday. But at the same time, you felt energized, although you couldn’t figure out for what. Down in the breakfast room, you met up with your friends.

After the second coffee, your wits came back to you. You still felt this weird mix of an energized hungover headache but a thought began to form. A thought about how something whispered to you from the woods yesterday.

“Guys, did you hear anything yesterday when we walked between the trees?” You looked around the table.

“The wind howling through the trees. What else would you hear in the forest on a stormy night?” Kate replied.

“Something that sounded like ‘Come to us’!” You said.

“I know how much you don’t like the vast majority of our class but I think that last glass of wine was too much.”

Anna chimed in, excitedly: “Can you imagine what it’d mean if Y/N is right?!”

“And here come the ghost stories. Or monster stories, depends on the mood, right Anna?” Leila chuckled.

Anna just rolled her eyes.

After breakfast, you and the others said goodbye to each other. Leila went back to her wife and children, Anna to her bachelorette condo three states over and gushing over how she could enjoy the landscape whizzing past in her old cruiser that magically hadn’t broken down yet, and Kate went back to her girlfriend and their little café.

You bought some meat from the store and started to walk the few miles to your little cottage near the woods. Everyone always told you how you lived too far off the grid, how if there was a storm, your cottage would be crushed by the trees, why you insisted on planting your own vegetables, and blah blah blah.

From puberty onwards, you had felt othered by the vast majority of your classmates and you couldn’t tell why. Not that your elementary school time had been easy but it had gotten worse in high school. Only afterwards, it had gotten better. For a few years, you learned about wood working away from home. During that time, something in you seemed to be calling for you to return home. Over time, it got worse and by the time your apprenticeship was done you were overjoyed to return.

You bought the derelict small building surrounded by land and forest and fixed it up but didn’t alter the floor plans or size. Next to your new home, you built a shed as your atelier to start your business of wooden statues, painted and natural. At the moment you worked on an outdoor decorative statue and some smaller ones on the side.

On the way to your main door, you came along one of the smaller wooden statues. It was almost done. Just some sanding down to be done on it, then it would be a perfect shrimper. The client had stated his address to be two towns over. You remembered a handsome and tall man. His dark skin, well, calling it glowing would be an understatement, and his eyes with an amused glint had etched themselves into your mind in the best way.

Every few days you took a really long walk through the woods, and that for years now. Tonight, it rained and stormed enough for the trees to bend this way and that. With this storm, even you thought they’d maybe come too close to your home.

And yet, something called you, this average person, strongly to the woods even in the storm with the danger of breaking branches. Dressed in your usual clothes and sturdy boots you set on your path. There was a pull behind your navel. Something that called you to walk and keep walking. With each step, the wind picked up and there was more rain pelting down. At other times, and probably as someone else, you would have thought to need to literally push against the wind. And yet, you didn’t.

You walked and walked and walked, primarily through the trees and avoiding the paths and ways and you couldn’t say why. Time and distance became indistinguishable. Your clothes and hair hung down around you from all the water. The small bit of light that filtered vanished slowly and left you in pitch dark.

You only heard a voice say: “It’s okay, I got you. You’re coming home.” Then you were out and barely felt the two arms that wrapped around your middle.

---

You woke up as if you had gone to sleep in a bed fit for a queens’ every possible whim. Flickering candle light shone around you in a circle. Under your belly you felt wet wood and directly in front of your eyes stood a candle larger than the others. Your limbs were bound away from your torso.

“Finally, we can begin” A voice came from the left side.

“What can begin? Who even are you?!” You frantically turned your head from side to side, trying to see the man who had spoken and if he was alone. You wriggled in your binds that made you involuntarily look like an overgrown starfish.

He wasn’t, it seemed. There were three other men. They all seemed to be ignoring you although they kept staring at you. One man each moved to the right and left side of you. One moved up the tall, flickering candle until you couldn’t see it anymore even with a craned neck.

The fourth man stood between your feet. He started reciting something in Latin. After the first reiteration you felt something on your back like a burn starting to spread. You couldn’t make out what that feeling did to your body let alone see. You could only look through the thighs of the man in front of you to the tree line at the edge of the clearing and hear one sentence being repeated again and again.

“Adiuro te ut vas nostrum.”

[cathyparrlyn]

Any friends that are like parrlyn, aramour, or katanna?

Oh, this is easy!!!!!

Just a quick side note, me and my SO ( @season-of-love ) also bounce between all three of these ships, specifically though we are a lot like Parrlyn at the moment cause I need to learn to fucking sleep. (I just now fixed my sleep schedule so fingers crossed.)

Let’s see, as for friends now:

Parrlyn: I have three suggestions here, @boleynhowards and @theothercatherine are deffo one, those two gay gals are just so lovely and are the epitome of Parrlyn. But I would also suggest four of my favorite kids to talk to, @lakes-other-sixes and @lostnfinding as well as @when-will-enough-be-enough and @bunnyranger761 because these kids just scream Anne and Cathy and have iconic duos that warm my heart. Also, Parr-cy and Tiff-Anne-y are never going to live these nicknames down. Each of the pairings I named above just have a mix of chaos, consideration, and unpredictably that I adore and see so much in Parrlyn, and I love them all for it.

Aramour: @oh-boleyn and @pen-and-a-microphone , specifically the powerful and responsible, yet chill mother x chaotic, anxious, and over protective mother type of pairing right here, and nobody can tell me that Blue does not fit Jane. Also I see Bel more as Anne, but minus the mischief she brings, I would say she is also a veery good candidate or Momagon. Bel and Blue’s dynamic just really fits two moms taking care of a bunch of dumb chaotic kids that one mom brought home, and continues to bring home, and I love it. Genuinely I aspire to be like both of them.

Katanna: hi, yes, submission for Me and Leila here, /J. But @pspsps-sushi and @kittyhoward are adorable and fit the type. Sushi has that lovable mischief, yet responsible when need be to vibe that Anna and Anne have, but also that very soft and relaxed vibe that I associate Anna with. Kitty is just literally Kitty, she is baby in the “I’m precious” way, but has also can defend herself and could drop kick me into the sun if she wanted to. She is very good at art, so yeah she is Kitty. To see Kitty and Sushi react is just adorable and reminds me so much of the soft, fluffy and goofy vibes of Katanna and I love it.
