[insom-nom-nom-niatic]

I see you write Troy Otto Fics 🫣

“you fixed me. you fixed my broken heart.”

could I request a angst turned fluffy fic where Troy is being an ass but around reader he’s an awkward ass bc he doesn’t know how to process his feelings but one day reader confronts him and is like “dude tf” and he reveals it all ? 👉🏽👈🏽

It has been quite a while since I have done any requests and succeeded in actually writing them, so first of all THANK YOU. And secondly, this terrified me so I'm sorry if I changed a few things because that's how my head works.

CHARACTERS: Troy Otto x Female Reader

WARNINGS: Normal FTWD stuff. FEELS!

Everyone within a few miles distance could have heard the yelling coming from the militia tent. No one could tell who had started it when the ruckus had suddenly erupted moments ago. All you could tell was that the boys were finally fighting back at Troy, making your feet pace a little quicker and making your way across the ranch. 

When you made it to the ruckus, you noticed the eyes peeping through the windows of the outlying RVs and tents scattered around. Giving an all knowing smile to the peeping eyes, you quickly disappeared behind the tan curtains finding a group of 5 men squaring off against 2, Troy, with Nick holding Troy back. 

Your entrance was soon noticed and the group grew silent. 

“What in the holy hell is wrong with you all?” Toeing up to John who was rubbing the newly formed bruise on his jaw. Nick let go of his hold on Troy’s jacket, heading to the back of the tent with a grunting sigh, catching your gaze as he did so. 

“You have all been a bunch of children the past few days, and now this?” Turning on your heels you make eye contact with Troy. Scanning his features, you take in the red patches growing upon his cheek and jaw line before meeting his gaze once more, this time more worry and sadness laced in your eyes. “You’re going to attract every walker within miles, and if you’re all fighting eachother, who is going to fight for the rest of us?” 

All men in the tent sunk a bit in their boots, all eyes staring at the ground. Troy’s cheeks reddened, not from a sucker punch this time. You look over to Nick, a smirk turning at the corners of his lips as he stared back. 

“I’m sorry ma’am,” Cooper spoke up. “We had a disagreement. We will watch our voices.”

John scoffed loudly, his eyes shooting back up to Troy on the opposite side of you. “I think she should know. We’re done getting the shit end of everything and still getting shit on while others can skate by and get the royalty treatment.” His eyes then shifted to you, scanning your frame up and down. You could feel the hair on your neck raise at the feeling, and you could feel the way Troy shifted his weight behind you. 

“It’s not her fault,” Nick finally raised his voice. The tone sounding over this bull shit and ready for someone to lay everything out. “You’re all being a bit dramatic anyways. Troy hasn’t done shit, except be an ass as usual.” 

This earned a raised eyebrow and questioning look from Troy, standing with both hands on his hips. Everyone knew Troy was kind of an ass, that’s how he got the miltia where it is, but you had never really seen what everyone else said about him. He was typically kind and oddly gentle when you were around him. He wasn’t this “monster” you hear the ranch whispering about. 

“Troy-” you took a deep breath, your back still turned towards him with your eyes staring straight back at John. “-Say you’re sorry.”

The tent went still. No one, not even Troy, was expecting that. No one told Troy what to do other than his late father and brother, and after they had expired, no one would have ever tried. Let alone tell him to apologize. 

To everyone’s surprise, Troy spoke. 

“I’m sorry,” his voice low and grumbled through gritted teeth, but he said it. The men all shook their heads in response. Not knowing how or what to do next, they funneled out of the tent one by one. All as quiet as a mouse leaving only Troy and yourself in the space.

Turning on your heels, you lock eyes with the tall brunette. His face red and one eye growing bloodshot from what you assume was a nice hit from John. His eyes weren’t angry though… he was nervous as he tried his best to maintain the eye contact. 

“I didn’t think you would actually say it, but I’m glad you did.” Your lips turned into a gentle smile, closing the distance between you both. Your hands reached up to his face, cradling his jaw in both palms, fingers carefully brushing over the small cuts and broken capillaries in his skin. 

Troy returned the smile once he felt your warm touch. His blue eyes fluttering closed with a sense of comfort that felt so extraterrestrial to him. “Thank you for stopping us, Nick, that bastard, was close to getting his ass kicked too.” His voice cracked witha chuckle between his words. 

“Your still a ass though, Troy. You have to change that. I hear it from so many here, yet I never see it. So I know you are capable of being a gentleman, Troy Otto.” 

“If you tell me to, then I guess I have to.” Troy’s body shook with a mischievous laugh. His eyes opening to find yours once more. The closeness between you both instinctively closing little by little. “You fixed me, you know that?”

His words caught you off a little bit, making you stutter in your actions. His skin felt warm against your touch, his mere presence so close brought on a sense of safety and openness. You could have stayed like that for hours… days. It somehow felt right. 

What he spoke, however, caused a twisting feeling in your gut. 

“I was broken after everything, after everyone was gone. I was alone and hurt in so many ways,” Troy’s eyes softened. He had figured opening up to you would be impossible, his feelings always getting the best of him and taking any words he wanted to say and throwing them out the window. Bu here and now, with you like this, he was at peace. 

“I was broken and you fixed me-” His eyes fell from your own to land upon your lips, those nerves that had stopped him from saying it all previously appearing in his belly again. “-so thank you.”

You could feel his tension grow in the moment so you took matters into your own hands, raising to your tip-toes and crushing your lips to his. Years it had been since you had ever felt this feeling. Even then, it didn’t feel like this, not this strong. 

Troy was a pain in the ass. 

At times, an actual ass. 

But you were his golden key to change. 

And there was about to be a lot of it.

Mannn... I truly hate bullies

like with a burning passion

I've been in a million schoolyard fights and a million more "new kid" in the neighborhood kinda fights. Against my will and usually outnumbered, I grew up fighting. Getting into a fight isn't something that scares me, but I dO try to avoid them, and if it's unavoidable then there are rules

One thing you don't do is kick someone when they're down. It's a fucking street rule. Especially someone who is very clearly beaten and who is not posing any real threat to you

Add to that, that you've ganged up on someone physically smaller than you and it just completes the "I'm a coward" ensemble

Look, 6ix9ine fucked around and found out that "snitches get stitches" is one of the hardest street rules there is

But I still hate seeing a bully gang up on a smaller person and act like they're some kinda tough guy for doing so. Shit, that's like cops calling each other "brave" for gunning down someone they know is unarmed and can't shoot back. It's super easy to be "brave" against someone who can't fight back. If you're not a cop, go jump some Bruce Lee type mf. All by your lonesome. Or if you're a cop, then go run into a classroom in Uvalde Texas all by yourself and square off against someone who has you outgunned. Film that shit and maybe then come tell me about how brave you really are

Anyway...

the dude who jumped 6ix9ine was dumb enough to post it on his social media accounts, so I'm guessing he will soon be a long-term guest of the state of Florida

And just for clarity: this is NOT me caping for 6ix9ine - he made his own bed, and it was his desire to be seen as a "real" one that got his ass into trouble and what makes ANYBODY from the streets think they can be semi-famous and snitch on someone and then go hang out at a public gym without any bodyguards?????

Just .... it's really really true what old folks try to tell you when you're young and on the streets: pick your friends carefully, and if you can (not everyone has that privilege) but IF you can, then stay tf away from the real cutthroat gangsters. You will live a longer happier more fulfilling life. Please believe that

listened to valtteri's new ep of beyond the grid and jotted down some transcriptions/my own reactions ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ

-"he's also got a great sense of humor" -- thank you tom for acknowledging it!!!! it's so underappreciated

-"i'm a really honest man" :weep:

-"there is actually plenty of cool stuff to do" outside of formula 1 and "it's nice to know there will be plenty of joy in life" when it's time for him to leave ;-; yes bb yes

-"don't be modest, how good are you on the bike now?" "i think i'm quite okay" SKJDFLKDSJF but actually fascinating listening to him talk about how he can't train like a pro cyclist because the endurance training would siphon away from his reaction times and speed etc. hm hm very inchresting

-HIM PUTTING HIS SERIOUS FACE ON FOR COFFEE TALK "because it's an important thing" and he wants to encourage people to drink coffee from good sources wahh

-he literally has it down to the milligram of how much coffee he will drink and exactly how long before a race he'll have it i love him your honor i love a meticulous man

-when asked to describe how his favorite cup of coffee tastes on the palette: "it's almost like a tiny bit fruity, really smooth, low in acidity, maybe hint of caramel and milk chocolate."

-the entire bit of them talking about 2018 russian grand prix [screaming with my mouth closed]

-his thought process that confidence creates peace of mind and peace of mind creates performance i think says a lot about how haunted and anxious he must have spent these years.

-calls 2014 his best, most complete season, and says that was the season when he was in the best place mentally

-the tone of his voice when he says "i've tried everything i could have, i've given everything" he sounds so tired, i want to hold him

Q: when you negotiate with toto wolff and you explain how a multi year contract would benefit you, what did he say?

A: toto thinks that pressure is good for me. he's obviously known me for a long time. i agree, pressure for a certain length of time is good and it can get more out of you. but if you have pressure, contractually, for nine years of your formula one career, year by year, it starts to eat you from inside. toto's saying is "pressure makes diamonds." i think in a way it's true, but there's also a limit to how long you can maintain that for your own well-being.

Q: what's it like to negotiate with toto wolff?

A: he's tough. he's such a good and talented businessman. he knows the way to talk and the strings to pull and it's his job. he's really really talented in that. but at the same time, we've always agreed everything in really good faith. because to me, he's a friend as well. i've known him for such a long time. for sure in negotiations, he always gets the upperhand, no matter who is on the other side of the table.

-asked whether his merc career coming to an end will affect his friendship with toto, he says "no, not at all."

-tom asks how toto broke the news to valtteri that he would be out and vb says "it was honestly like we agreed. it was not like he told me. he knew that at some point, we need to make decisions, and already i had decided myself that if i couldn't get two years or more with mercedes, i would go for something new."

-he praises george and gives him genuine advice he is a much bigger person than i am lmaoooo :x

-how much lighter he sounds talking about alfa romeo <333

-he had the option it sounds like between going to alfa or williams and says it wasn't an easy choice

-there will be some podcasts about vb coming out :o but they will be in finnish :<

-"i think it tells something about me that in the house [that he's building in lapland], there's only one bedroom. so i like privacy, i don't like to have too many guests. it's really just for me and my girlfriend or me and my family."

[mrsbsmooth]

literally everyone in the villa is trash 💀 who tf are you supposed to pick then??? lmao

OKAY HEAR ME OUT

I hated Suresh from Episode 1 & 2. Hated him. But I can tell you right now - I'm getting vibes from this script.

I have a theory, y'all. But it contains spoilers, so it's below the cut.

MrsBSmooth's theory

So, posting this 9th August, 2022.

I think Suresh is about to have one of the most magnificent redemption arc's we've ever seen in LITG.

He's all in for MC from the very beginning. And yeah, he cheated.

So if we're writers, we're thinking - okay, great, let's make him slowly more and more believable and forgivable.

He thinks he deserves redemption.

But he doesn't get redeemed.

In fact, he gets progressively worse through the first 13 episodes.

Hid a long term relationship from the person he was flirting with? Refuses to apologise for it. Says he's already said his sorries.

Cheated after a huge fight (no miscommunication, 'we were on a break' thing, they just had a fight and instead of fixing it with her, he slept with a girl he'd been flirting with)

Cracks on with Dana and kisses her instead of MC.

Tells MC all about how much his family adored her and how sad they are that she's gone (a little manipulative)

Makes you feel like an idiot for wanting to propose to him.

But here's the kicker. There's a line toward the very end that I didn't actually include in my summary.

He says he would've said yes.

Almost as soon as he says this, he properly moves on.

He pulls MC aside and they have a discussion about their relationship. He's all:

'You must've been thinking about it for a long time, and I didn't even know you were ready to make that commitment. We weren't even on the same page before I cheated. Maybe we were never as compatible as I thought we were. It's starting to feel like we might be worlds apart, if I'm honest, MC'

Almost like this is a turning point for him.

It's at this point he realises that he never deserved redemption in the first place.

Kat's words of questioning whether or not he and MC would both just be happier apart is something that's playing on his mind.

So he wonders whether he should just let MC go.

I think this is why, when Arlo and Meera arrive, Suresh is immediately into Arlo. Flirting with her straight away. Which makes zero sense if he's been all in on MC this whole bloody time.

OK, SO THEN:

We know Casa is coming this season. In Season 2, we went to Casa on day 13. We know there are forty-something episodes in the season, so it might be soon.

But before that, there's a boy's choice recoupling.

However, I wouldn't be surprised if Arlo and Meera get to go first.

Arlo picks Finn Meera picks ChEddy Alfie... for some reason picks Dana. He's unsure about MC because of how serious she was with Suresh.

That means that:

Suresh has to pick between MC and Kat. And obviously, he picks MC. We're coupled up again.

And then boom.

Casa Amor.

Again, this is just a theory. No one has any spoilers after Episode 13 right now. So I might end up being completely wrong...

I think he's realised that that he has to stop trying to revive what's already dead and gone. It's too late to pick up where they left off.

If he wants her back, he's going to have to start from square one, and that's showing her he's loyal.

Suresh is going to be the only one at Casa who's loyal. And he will be fiercely loyal. No sharing a bed, no kissing girls in challenges, nothing. He's rejecting every other girl, not even a peck, and everyone starts commenting on it.

He's. Loyal.

(Also, MC specifically says that the girl he cheated with has a turtle tattoo. I think that she's going to be one of the Casa girls. Lingering shot right at the end of a turtle tattoo. And yet, Suresh is still going to stay loyal to MC).

This entire season is not us as the MC. It's Suresh's story. He's being tested in many, many ways, not in the least that his ex (in my case, me) is being a colossal bitch to him.

Suresh is sticking around anyway. He loves her. She's it for him, and he's not losing her again.

Just like he's been saying since day 1.

It was at this point I realised I have a kink for unconditional love.
