LAST LOVERS ON THE MIDNIGHT TRAIN - 003 ! lipstick marks and coffee stains

PAIRING : producer riki x baker fem reader

SYNOPSIS: if it weren't for the two being on that last midnight train together, you would've never met. but when one person is wearing a white shirt while the other is holding a coffee cup without a lid, an accident is bound to happen. another 142 accidents later, and maybe riki would consider being your last love.

authors note - i keep inserting baseball into my works😞 also fun fact ab the last ss my bf is a yankees fan but i’m a dodgers fan lol

“just leave your shoes at the door.” you instructed riki, before allowing him to enter your apartment.

“cool, cool.” he replied with a nod.

you watched as he examined your home, glancing over every last picture frame and decorative throw pillow.

“it’s nice.” riki assured, as if he knew what you’re thinking. “very cozy. small, but cozy nonetheless. this definitely feels like a home.”

“do you.. do you not have a home?” you asked him hesitantly as he took a seat on the couch. “it sounds silly, i know. but the way you said it just had me thinking.”

riki smiled, letting out a soft laugh as he watched you struggle to find an excuse. “sorry, i know i kinda made it seem that way. its not that i don’t have a home, im just never home. most of the time i end up crashing at a friends place, or falling asleep in the studio.”

“this could be your home. i know it’s probably a little far, and even though we just met, you’re welcome anytime.” you comforted him with a small pat on the back. “now let me get that stain out.”

riki was sat on your bed, facing you with his legs crossed as you scrubbed at the stain.

“why are you scrubbing it before you wash it?” he asked curiously.

“pre-treating it. sometimes the washer doesn’t do a good enough job because it can set the stain in more.” you answered, briefly looking up.

you didn’t see it, but you felt and heard his presence slightly drift as riki got up to walk around your room.

he scanned the walls, and noticed a white shirt hanging by the bed. on one side, it had now faint lipstick marks in a small heart.

“what’s this?” riki questioned, pointing to it.

“oh that? it’s, uh.. old valentines gift for an ex. i was never able to give it to him, but it was too cute for me to throw away. so now its mine.” you explained with a shrug. not much too it.

“y/n?” “yeah?”

“can i spend the night? just ‘cause, you know. it’s late, and i’m sure we’re both tired. for the sake of convenience.”

you stared at him with your lips slightly apart, before they curled into a grin.

“what? what’s so funny?” riki pouted.

“of course you can spend the night you dummy. you probably won’t be getting this sweater back until tomorrow by the earliest anyway.” you rolled your eyes.

“i wouldn’t mind if you kept it.” he joked, before walking back to his original seat in front of you. riki watched as you continued scrubbing at the deep brown stain, until it eventually faded to a lighter shade.

“throw this into the washer for me, and you can sleep in my bed. i’ll take the couch.” you pointed your head in the direction of the laundry appliances.

“wait-” he paused. “why would you take the couch? it’s your house. you take the bed.”

“you’re my guest. unless you wanna share the bed?” you raised a brow teasingly, but he knew you were kidding.

“oh shut up, you’re just dying to make me look bad. how ‘bout i just sleep on the floor next to you?” riki pointed to the floor beneath you two.

“okay. but don’t complain if your back is hurting by the morning.” you joked as riki let out an annoyed sigh.

Ford pines for headcanons?

YES FUCKCING YES GIRL!!!!!!!! LETS A GO !

A (Realisitic): lovessssss doodling on paper. has an affinity for eyes (;]), swirlies, scribbles, and creatures. whatever he can get his damned hands on he will doodle on it and he will do it happily. my boy's an artist ❤️❤️

B (Not Realistic But Funny): honestly in canon ford's probably into music too much but i can see him being an period music fan. abba, queen (teehee), freetwood mac, david bowie, etc. that's just his VIBE to me, not in the crowley way but in his own strong inks and cigarette smoke way. i associate thoss things with him as well as anythinf existing before 1982 with him alot if u didnt know. i still see something and go "ford missed this 😔" or "ford didn't miss this! 😁" in a sad or happy tone at least once a day /srs. oh i love this guy

C (Heart-Crushing): this kinda collides with D but im keeping it in that category. soul crushing? ford never knowing what to hope for in regards to stan on the other side. whenever he has time to think about it, he isnt sure whether to imagine him in his house or dead in a ditch, and the mystyer honestly scares him more than he'd like to admit. ford kinda treats it like schrodinger's cat in a way--as long as he never confirms, it could really be anything, and that absolves him of any potential guilt. so. (also: that he celebrates holidays out in the multiverse too, when possible. makeshift menoras, pastries in substitute of bday cakes, lighting sticks during new years. just for the sense of grounding. ALSO alsohe's spent at least 3 birthdays in a prison cell or very hurt. so. yeah)

D (Unrealistic but FUCK CANON): has always stuggled with addiction, especially with antidepressants or alcohol. thus sort of snowballs into a whole "if this makes me feel good i cannot have for more than needed" but still ends upgrappling with it anyway. he suffered MAJORRRR withdrawlel when portal stranded and since then swore off it bc he drank the most under bill's influence. it's very important to me and i need more fics about it sooooooo bad, bc while i HAVE written my own, i think someone else is needed to do it justice. now that im remembering this i HAVE read some with this hc and they were beautiful and i need to reread them again and i need to REWATCH THIS DAMN SHOW SO I CAN READ AND WRITE SOME FIC AGAI .... also there IS some evidence as extracted by @/callipraxia (need to find that meta again) but i DOUBT that would ever be canon bc of the kid show rating. (watch the book of bill canonize this seven fucking months from now. i swear to god..../j)

TY FOR THE ASK!!!!!! 💖💖

i could really feel the abusive gf + trying-to-be-ex-bf dynamic when vash suggested he and knives repopulate the independent plant race together lmaooooo

Do you have any idea how difficult it was to drain as much of the sexual metaphor out of that scene as I physically could? I was doing backflips. I pulled out every stop to try and desexualize what was happening there as much as possible. And it's STILL coded that way. You sincerely can't remove the reproductive coercion bits from the finale of Stampede.

I did want to keep the most important things about the Vash and Knives dynamic, while messing around with it a little. And eventually the most interesting thing turned out to be manipulation preying on somebody's love for you and perception of you as innocent. It's pretty toxic, and you see Knives constantly try and draw away from it and get sucked back in. He knows he and Vash are bad for each other, but there's a lot of strong ties there that keep them attached. They're the only members of their species. They have a psychic bond. You can't understate that.

But the siblings part will always be the most important, and you can see at the very, very end, at the core of it, they revert to being siblings. Knives still took care of Vash, tried to guide him to doing the right thing, and protected him. I won't judge him for doing so.

Knives couldn't hurt his brother. He should have. Vash had tortured a child. He was actively trying to blow up a city. He had revealed himself as a deeply cruel and hateful person. But he just couldn't hurt his brother. I can't say if that's right or wrong, and I don't really want to. A few minutes previously Knives reflected that he didn't really know if he was making the right decision or not, if he was doing good or evil, and that in the end he just had to make the decision he could live with - that let him live with himself. The genocide was a mistake because it made Knives almost unable to live with himself. Killing Vash would have broken a part of Knives, and he couldn't have lived with that decision. It was the right thing to do for him.

I think stories about characters becoming good people sometimes miss something, which is that we never fucking know if we're doing the right thing or not. We want to become better people, we just don't know how. It's not always obvious, and sometimes even if we try and figure out if a decision is harming ourselves or others we can't always tell. Knives can rarely tell, just because of who he is. Vash uses Rem and her philosophies as a crutch to make those decisions for him, and it's pretty cowardly. Knives tries to figure it out on his own, but he can rarely tell just because of who he is. He uses Brad and Luida, and later Meryl and Milly, as a guideline, but at the end of the day only he can decide the right thing to do. He can only do his best.

Oh my god

So 6 weeks or so ago BaldBastard tells us to get rid of the black supply tote, we're getting clear cube ones. Whatever.

The cubes are working surprisingly well, the sign holders fit perfectly in them, keeping it neat and tidy. Everyday supplies like tape, masks, and trash bags are in one, lesser used ones in another. Great.

Motherfucker shows up today and goes "you guys need a black tote. Like put the cubes in there. I don't know who told you to use those but you need the black tote."

BITCH IT WAS YOU!!! YOU FUCKING TOOK OUR TOTE AWAY! YOU FUCKING FORCED THE CUBES ON US!!! YOU!!

Then he was bitching ab how we need to liquidate more and it's like uh huh that's gonna work great until the liquidator tells us to stop sending him shit unless it specifically is in liquidation status bc they dont have the fucking money. You know, like what happened LAST YEAR.

AND he and FGM were like "you guys have a lot in the steel..." and RC and I went "no we dont! It's all basics! Trust me! Go look yourself!!!" And then they were like well pull from boxes then. Okay bitch so we're gonna have a full table of one item bc theres nothing fucking new.

I swear to god you could put an actual chicken in charge as our store manager and there would be no difference. No, it might actually IMPROVE.

[vaguelydefinedshapes]

Goddd there's something so humbling about being broken up with when you didn't really like the person either,, like oh, I'm too much to handle for the guy who made me uncomfortable. Okay. When can I get my hoodie back

[toytulini]

god that "morning people are an oppressive class" post annoys me in some way i cant. quite. ugh

[loverboybitch]

we got a bunch of weird crosses in at work today. i bought two.//.

[catzgam3rz]

Why was be bullying you??? Can u report him thats like harassment

Genuinely he was just a massive Cunt to literally everyone but his own daughter so a lot of times I think it was just shrugged off as “oh he’s just like that” PLUS he was a “man who could never be wrong” and if you told him he was wrong you would be ✨yelled at✨

Idk how the hell he still had a job with the way he talked to costumers too it was ridiculous (he also was worse to my fellow coworker Twiggy like would scream and insult him in the middle of the store about mistakes that my coworker DID NOT MAKE)

I did let HR know today and apparently they didn’t realize how bad he actually has been and they had me email them my account so they could have it on record :) (Head office is in a different city from my branch so they don’t interact with this guy much if at all)

Oh unrelated but he did our deliveries while also using the work van as a personal vehicle, managing to crashed it 4 times in the past couple months, he also ran our forklift into our loading bay door and dented it to shit so I mean it when i say idk how the fuck he still worked there
