One of the visual novels I'm playing right now hit me with the inevitable "I died so that you can live" and I cannot stress enough how much it makes me wanna strangle someone
Wtf do you mean live without you? You want me to go on living without you? Knowing you died so I could? Is soooooooooo selfish. You think i wanna live a life without you? Don't piss me off. Oh and if i kms suddenly I don't appreciate the gift of life (that i DIDN'T ask for).

Sorry if I'm mixing you up with someone else, but you've worked security before, right?
If you're willing, I'd be really interested on your thoughts on the murderbot diaries or murderbot as a character with that in mind?
Like did you recognise aspects of your job in murderbots descriptions of security work? Or did they like throw you out of immersion in the story?
Anyway thanks and hope you're having a good day/evening wherever you are!
As a security guard who has read the first two Murderbot books, Murderbot has been the number one most realistic security specialist character I have ever seen in media so far 😭
The third most annoying thing in security in my experience is handling threats. The second most annoying thing is having no threats to handle and being bored. The number one most annoying thing is the client being an idiot
Ihave social anxiety which I am medicated for. When I am in uniform with clear instructions, that anxiety is zero. I have a script and a set of rules and that makes life easy. I’m super good at performing tasks with clear expectations and that’s kinda how I keep getting good offers, it’s super straightforward
Bad clients are clients who give stupid, inefficient, counterproductive, cruel, or flat-out illegal orders. There are ways of shutting that shit down without them losing heir shit, but it’s still a pain in the ass every time
I’m a security specialist. I specialize in security. This is what I am trained for- handling crisis situations and minimizing harm. If you, an off-shift cashier at pet smart, see me deescalating a situation and decide you’re gonna drop your untrained uninformed ass in there with zero context or skills and “help” because I look small and helpless, then all you’re doing is increasing my likelihood of getting hurt while increasing my paperwork load by like two hours, and I’m gonna hate you the entire time. What you have essentially done is promoted me to meat shield while giving the aggressor I’m calming down an obnoxious and aggravating hostage. Good god please do not
Yes, I am sometimes asked to stand perfectly still in a corner for several hours like a mannequin. What do I do to avoid going insane? Think about Star Trek and the very good fanfiction I’ll be reading on my break, mostly
Yes I can assist in evacuating tw location in the event of an environmental disaster. No I cannot tell my waiter that they put cilantro on the wrong order. Yes this makes perfect sense
I love Murderbot. I love how realistic it is. Like obviously I can’t speak for everyone in the industry but yeah I’ve worked for absolute dogshit security companies in the past and yeah a lot of the books so far are super accurate to that experience so A+ so far, honestly
#Murderbot#the Murderbot diaries#teablart#Honestly I would never want to BE a security guard like Murderbot cause it seems really unhappy with it’s position in life#and it’s ‘employers’ understandably#But it seems like a partner I’d really enjoy working with#Feels like annoying chatter would be at a minimum and tasks would still get passably done#It might hate me though#I’m a bit neurotic and tend to care too much about following rules and doing well#I think about the job too much#Murderbot I could see being much happier as an EMT#Or a park ranger#I don’t know if Murderbot would be happiest doing guard work even if it had personhood and a choice#Even me… I think I’m mostly here cause it’s what I know#I think a lot of people live like that#doing what we know#whether or not it makes us happy

sometimes you black out and just an entire Persona 5 AU in one night
did I ever settle on a design for phantom thief! Siffrin? no. anyway,
NOT fully mirroring the P5 plot!! it's a bit different! a few were hit with the obligatory anime teenager beam
Siffrin gets arrested for allegedly attacking someone with a knife! this did not happen. while trying to help someone, he in fact got knifed in the face and lost an eye.
the adoption system is about to drop their ass since they're nearly an adult and no one's too happy about the aggravated assault. fate drops him at Nille's doorstep, who takes pity on him but insists she's only housing his ass for some extra cash. Bonnie acquires another felon a sibling!
showing up to school looking like shit (anxiety, no sleep), with an eyepatch and a natural silent intensity, no one really questions if he's stabbed someone. everyone's pretty sure he's killed someone actually.
Mira and Isa are charged with helping the new local mass murderer get settled, and they slowly start to uncover the real Siffrin hiding under all that apprehension. Odile, the school nurse, is all kinds of queer so she's got these kids' backs. as the story progresses, they each have their own character arc around biting back on authority (Isa gets the courage to transition, and Mira stops straightening her hair)
what about everyone else's outfits? that's the fun part! SIFFRIN IS DOING ALL THIS PHANTOM THIEF SHIT ALONE
well not totally alone. they've got a weird cat now. they can talk (Siffrin wishes they didn't) and has a concerning amount of knowledge about the metaverse for being an amnesiac! (this worries them too, they just try not to show it)
the OTHER fun part is that Siffrin is doing half this phantom thief stuff in the metaverse, half in the real world. good news is, he has the magic metaverse stuff irl! bad news is he has the magic metaverse stuff irl. yeah it helps keep him from getting caught, but law enforcement starts rising quickly to military arms when you start breaking physics while also being a theater kid about it.
the meat of the plot is surrounding Siffrin's struggle to fit two lives into one, and how his friends are WAY too perceptive to keep this up forever. but they have to, because they've only barely convinced their friends to accept them. if they knew he was some evil freaky magic terrorist (he's not, but like, who would believe him when he's doing seemingly evil freaky magic terrorist things!), they'd turn him in, they'd be scared, they'd HATE him!!
btw there is no rival for Siffrin. he's his own rival. lets give the "I'm terrified I'm manipulating my friends" twink actual mind alteration powers and see what happens :))
#isat#in stars and time#isat au#siffrin#odile#mirabelle#isabeau#loop#while brainstorming this in the server I was trying to match roles to characters and was like#u know what would be funny. if akechi was just There#no other canon P5 characters. no explanation#no plot relevance either#he's just the poor bastard that keeps seeing Siffrin banana himself to go to the shadow realm#also no there's. not really any personas. just magic ig#zilly art

Third Date Shenanigans

18+, minors dni
you're on your third date with bucky and a little mishap and shared clothing leads to some good times
warnings: smut smut smut, oral (f and m receiving), fingering
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Bucky Barnes didn't have many weaknesses. Having a past as traumatic as his and pushing through to become a better person tended to strengthen someone.
However, you may just be his undoing.
Your third date was a more relaxed affair, the two of you enjoying some dinner you made together and watching a movie at Bucky's apartment.
You were both sat on the soft cushions of his couch with crossed legs, facing each other with bowls of spaghetti balanced on your laps as you talked and laughed.
It was nice.
However, things took a turn when you were both laughing over a story you were telling from your days in college, and as you were lifting a forkful of your pasta to your mouth the noodles slipped and slid down your shirt.
The surprise of it caused you to jump, and in turn your bowl tumbled and your jeans were ruined too.
"Shit, I'm so sorry, Bucky." you huffed, using your napkins to clean the mess on your lap. Thankfully none had gotten on the couch. "I swear I'm so clumsy sometimes. I knew we should've ate at the table."
Bucky let out a laugh as he set his own meal aside on the coffee table and helped you, "It's okay, doll. It happens."
Once the mess was cleaned, you both take in the damage done to your clothing.
While the noodles were cleaned up, there wasn't much saving the saucy mess left on the fabric of your shirt and jeans.
"Well this sucks. I guess I'm gonna have to go early so I can clean up. I really am sorry," you sighed, aggravated with yourself.
Bucky looked over you contemplatively for a silent moment before speaking.
"I could let you borrow some clothes if you want? We're just staying in to watch a movie. It's no big deal," he shrugged.
You bit your lip at him before a small smile spread across your face.
You really hadn't wanted to leave him this early anyways.
"If you really don't mind?" you said, and the way you peered at him through your eyelashes made his chest flutter.
"Not at all, one sec," he stood, heading to his bedroom and grabbing a black t-shirt and some sweats, taking his time to change into his own comfy clothes so you didn't feel alone, then leaving a quick scratch to his cat Alpine's head where she was snoozing on his bed before heading back you.
You smiled at his change of clothes and stood as he came back before you took the ones handed to you. As you passed him you raised on your toes to press a quick kiss to his cheek and give him a soft "Thank you" before you head to the bathroom.
He took the time that you were in the bathroom to clean up your dinner and head back into the living room to set up his newly acquired Netflix account.
He was settled back on the couch by the time you came out and all he could think as it was probably a good thing as he may have fallen over otherwise.
"The sweats were too big even when I tied them," you said, flushing as you fiddled with the soft fabric of the shirt that fell to just above your knees, you bare legs poking out underneath, "Is this okay?"
He couldn't help but have to swallow down the lump in his throat before nodding, "Yeah, it's uh. It's no problem at all."
You smiled shyly as you made your way to him, curling back up on the couch with your knees tucked under you.
The dark metal of his vibranium arm moved to grab the blanket he had on the back of the couch, bringing it to you.
"Don't want your legs to get cold, doll" he said and watched as you gratefully took the blanket and spread it over your lap.
You both bickered playfully on what movie you would watch before settling on an old horror movie that you loved and Bucky hadn't seen before.
You weren't long into the beginning of the film before you had scooted into his space, his flesh arm winding around you.
"I love this movie but I always forget how much it freaks me out," you said, looking up at him and a grin.
"It's a good thing I'm here, then," he said, leaning down to press a soft peck to your lips.
Your first kiss had been after your second date, chaste and with a taste of wine that you both had enjoyed at the restaurant you had gone to and since then you had been nearly craving the next one.
"My hero," you said softly, leaving one more kiss to his plush mouth before leaning on his shoulder.
Everything was going great.
Until, that is, you had shifted to get into a more comfortable position and stretched your legs out over Bucky's, letting the blanket rest on both of your laps.
It was meant to be an innocent cuddle, but the feeling on your warm smooth legs against him as you were now practically propped up on his lap was slowly becoming a distraction, his thoughts becoming clouded as the scent of your perfume overtook him, and he couldn't help the tightening he felt in his sweatpants.
Especially when he had risked a glance at you and saw a flash of dark blue lace where you hadn't realized that your shirt had ridden up some.
You could feel his eyes on you and you turned to look at him, wanting to make sure he was still enjoying the movie.
You couldn't help the way you froze when you saw the look in his eyes, hungry yet apprehensive.
"Bucky?" you asked softly, but you let out a surprised gasp as he leaned in and kissed you again, his lips harsh this time.
You couldn't help but let your eyes slip closed as you responded, shifting to wrap your arms around his neck.
Even if you were shocked at the slam of his lips, you weren't upset by it in the least.
You couldn't help but press your thighs together when you felt the slick heat of his tongue against your lips and you were quick to open up to him, letting it brush against yours.
"God, angel. You don't even know what seeing you in my shirt and feeling you against me is doing to me, do you?" he growled as he pulled back just enough to speak.
Your pupils were blown and your lips were red, a bit of stubble burn on your chin, but you loved it.
"I think I have a notion of it now," you said with a breathless laugh.
You made the move this time, leaning back in to kiss him again.
Before you even realized what was happening you were laid back on the couch, head resting on a throw pillow as he positioned himself between your thighs.
His shirt had fully ridden up to your hips now and he couldn't help the groan he let out at the sight of the dark blue panties you wore, a patch of fabric in the middle nearly black with arousal.
"Is this okay?" he asked, his vibranium hand on your right thigh. He wanted nothing more than to trail his fingers upwards and feel the warmth of your skin and the wetness of your need. He was grateful that having full sensation to match his flesh arm was one of the touches added in when he got this arm in Wakanda.
You smiled at him, a bit nervous, and nodded.
"I don't want to...do everything. Not tonight. But you can touch me, Bucky. I want to touch you. I trust you," you told him.
He grinned down at you before he kissed you once more with more heat and need than any of your previous ones.
A soft moan left you as his hips shifted and pressed against you and you reached down, your hand grabbing the metal of his on your thigh, and began to slowly push it towards your panty covered mound.
Your lips broke from his as he cupped you, a gasp leaving you at the sensation.
It didn't deter him as he began to trail his lips to your jaw and then your neck, soft sucks and kisses left to the smooth skin there, leaving marks that you would admire later on.
"Bucky, please," you whimpered, hips moving as he began to rub circles into your wet panties.
He pulled back from you, a whine leaving you as he gripped the bottom of his shirt that you wore, waiting for your nod of permission before he pulled it up and tossed it away.
Your nipples hardened in the cool air of the room and he couldn't help but admire you as he let his flesh hand come up to cup one of your full breasts, wasting no time in getting to work playing with your perked nipple.
At one particularly sharp pinch to it you moaned, back arching.
"Stop teasing me and do something," you huffed.
A chuckle left him as he leaned down to peck your lips once more.
"As you wish, doll."
His lips began back on their trail down your neck but this time they continued on, leaving kisses to your chest and licks to your nipples until you were squirming, before kissing his way down your belly.
When he got to the edge of your panties, he glanced up at you.
"Can I taste you?" he asked, lips brushing your abdomen as he spoke and causing your muscles to tense.
You bit your lip.
"Nobody's ever done that before," you told him, a bit embarrassed over it.
You were by no means a virgin but no guys you had been with before had ever taken an interest in giving oral, even if they received it themselves.
He shook his head.
"That's a crime, baby. I could live between these thighs." he said, turning to press a kiss to the thigh on his left, "We don't have to, but I would love to."
Fuck, this man was a dream come true.
"I want to. With you, I want to," you told him, and a grin graced his beautiful features.
He went back to trailing kisses along the waistband of your underwear before pulling back, hands sliding up your thighs and to your hips, grabbing the fabric and sliding it down.
You helped him get rid of them, lifting your hips and laughing as he tossed them carelessly over his shoulder.
You were naked beneath him now and you let out a yelp as he tugged you closer, your thighs being slid over his shoulders.
You had no time to say anything before you felt warm heat sliding over your clit.
"Oh," you gasped, thighs seizing at the sensation.
Your hands flew to the messy hair that was currently between your legs, fingers entwining in it while his head moved.
His tongue ran from your soaked entrance up to the hard bud of your clit.
"Doll, you taste amazing," he groaned against you, leaving a quick suck to the pulsing bud, "It's a shame nobody has done this for you. I could feast on this pussy for breakfast, lunch and dinner."
A breathy laugh escaped you before it turned into a moan as he got back to work.
"Bucky, holy shit," you whined, and he had to use one arm to rest over your hips as he worked to keep you still.
His free hand soon joined in and he pushed one, then two fingers into your soaked entrance, stretching you open. He explored for a moment before finding the spot within you that had you yelling out your release.
He continued flicking his tongue against your overstimulated clit until you couldn't take it anymore and you pulled him away gently.
He looked up at you, and you were sure your flushed cheeks matched his.
His lips were swollen and glistening but you didn't care as you pulled him up to kiss you, humming at the taste of yourself on him.
Your fingers fisted the fabric of his shirt and pulled it up a bit, "We're a bit unevenly matched here, babe."
He hesitated for a second before letting you pull the shirt off of him.
Your eyes landed on the scar of where his arm used to be where it met the dark metal of his artificial one.
You met his eyes for a moment before leaning in, kissing the gnarled skin.
"You're beautiful to me, Bucky." you told him and a soft smile graced him.
You leaned back up to brush your lips against his as you spoke.
"Now, lean back so I can suck your cock," you commanded softly.
Bucky didn't think he had ever moved so fast, leaning back and taking in the glory of your nude body laying in front of him.
You could see the evidence of his need pitching a tent in his pants and you sat up, quickly switching roles so now he was laying back as you hovered over him.
You leaned down and kissed him as your hands wasted no time in finding the waistband of his pants, tugging them down to expose his cock.
Your jaw dropped at the sight, easily the biggest you've seen.
But you were up for the challenge.
Your right hand came down to wrap around him, barely able to make it all the way around, and you laughed at the soft grunt he let out.
"This is impressive, baby." you told him as you began to stroke the hard length of him.
You straddled his thigh so you could reach him easier and you couldn't help but grind yourself against it just a bit, feeling arousal grow in you once more at the sight.
Bucky was unable to speak, jaw slack as he watched you.
After stroking him for a moment longer you leaned down and let your tongue come out, licking him from root to tip and feeling pride swell in you at his groan.
Your lips wrapped around the tip of him and you sucked, letting your tongue dip into the slit.
"Fuck, doll, you're gonna kill me," he growled, eyes nearly black with arousal.
A giggle left you, causing him to moan once more at the vibrations of it.
Your eyes closed as your head began to bob on him, cheeks hollow as you went.
Your hips began to pick up their pace as you ground on his thigh and he lifted it to help you get a better angle.
The feeling of your moans around him were driving him wild and he grasped the back of the couch with his metal hand, the wood base creaking with his strength as his flesh hand went to cup your cheek, thumb tracing your lips wrapped around him.
You opened your eyes to glance at him through your eyelashes, your free hand that wasn't holding him coming up to tease his balls, and he was done for.
"Goddammit, baby" he growled, and tried to tug you back in case you didn't want him to come down your throat.
You shook your head, speeding up both your mouth on him and your hips, determined to come at the same time as him.
A shout left him as he came down your throat and you whined as you ground your soaked pussy onto him, releasing for a second time.
You took a page from his book and suckled on his tip until he pulled away, unable to take it anymore.
You sat up straight, licking your lips before crawling up to lay on his chest, your naked bodies pressed against each other.
He grabbed the blanket you both had been using before, pulling it over you both before glancing at the movie on the TV that was now scrolling through the credits.
"I think date three was a success," he teased, and you laughed as you propped your chin on his chest to look up at him.
"I can't wait to see what date four brings," you said teasingly, leaning up to kiss him.

I Win
2.5k words
Summary: You’re practicing combat with Bucky, but he never intended to win- not in a fight, anyway.
Pairing: Bucky Barnes x reader
For the sake of avoiding spoilers, extensive warnings will not be given. This story includes sexually explicit material, reader discretion advised.
While reading, I recommend listening to enemies to lovers, a spotify playlist by me!
~
"You can't be tired already."
He'd been saying that for an hour. Even when you entertained him in whatever form of combat he demanded next, he threw taunt after taunt at you. Broad shoulders hunched over in a fighting stance, flesh and metal fingers wiggling in anticipation, mouth corners stretched apart in ecstatic snark.
"C'mon kid, you've gotta give me something. We just gonna dance around for another hour?"
You could hear it in his voice that he didn't mean any of it. Bucky had sung your praises on plenty of occasions so you knew he was just egging you on for the sake of a good match. But he also had a knack for reading you uncomfortably well, and he'd commented more than once about how frustrated and stressed out you'd been. So you also knew he was doing this for your own good.
That didn't mean he wasn't driving you up a wall. Combat seemed to be both the problem and the solution in this scenario.
Scratch that. The problem was Bucky and his big mouth.
You heaved a sigh that was audibly frustrated, pouring water down your throat to keep your mouth from saying anything stupid. The weaponry rack right by your head wasn't helping much.
"So are you just-"
Whoosh!
Before even you could comprehend what was happening, you'd swung a knife with a blade the size of your hand in his direction, landing bullseye into a dummy behind him with a dull noise, sending the target flying.
But Bucky just wasn't quitting.
"Where was all that rage during the brawl, huh princess?" He held his hands up incredulously. "Turns out you're holding out on me, all this time I thought you were just weak."
In an instant, you had him pinned. Sat on his chest, legs weighing down either arm, and a knife - identical to the one you'd kabobbed a dummy with seconds earlier - pressed against his throat.
"Ah, there you are." Bucky grinned, eyes shining lasciviously.
"Say another damn word, Barnes, I'm begging you." You grit, pressing the blade in harder.
His voice never wavered, amusement only becoming increasingly more aggravating. "Begging, huh? I like the sound of that."
"Then let's hear it." With sharp and final movements you hoist yourself up and down, seating yourself directly on Bucky's lap.
You may have smirked a little too proudly when you watched the wind get knocked out of him and his body curl into itself. His arms, now freed, flew to your hips. They seemed not to know whether or not to pull you off of him or keep you there.
You didn't give him the chance to make that decision, taking a fistful of hair and yanking it forward so that your mouths met in a sloppy, heavy-breathed kiss. The groan that spilled from his mouth to yours only encouraged your fervor, dragging your hips against his oh so slowly.
The sound that rumbled in Bucky's throat was akin to thunder, his mouth falling open, shoulders tensing and relaxing under your fingers. You felt his Adam's apple knock against the knife followed by a sharp exhale through his nose.
"G'na be the death of me," Bucky breathed, head lolling back when you pressed an open kiss on his pulse point. "Fuck."
"Shut up." You huffed, nipping at his earlobe and letting out a moan, sending shivers down his spine at the sound. A quick hand made quick work of his pants, tugging them down just enough to pull out his leaking cock, twitching at your touch. His hips kicked into your fist at the feeling, but you held him down.
"Be still, or you get nothing," you said firmly, thumb grazing over the top with a feather-light touch. You tapped the collar of his shirt with the tip of the blade. "Off."
Bucky followed, eyes heavy and dark on you as he practically tore the shirt from his body. He was still smirking, but his confidence and snark was beginning to wither and replace itself with something else, something more intense, something needier.
"Open." You said. Bucky watched you for a moment, as if your intentions would be written in your eyes. Although you couldn't read his expression, his jaw dropped slowly, tongue following until it stopped at his lip. His head wasn't tilted up to look at you, he was watching you through his lashes.
Your fingers traced over Bucky's bottom lip, and over the tip of his tongue in the process- you swore his mouth opened wider at the contact. The pads of your index and middle slid against his tongue, and his mouth closed over the digits as soon as they were in past the knuckle.
Your stomach flipped over at the sight, at the feeling. Bucky's tongue laved over your fingers in earnest, quiet noises and huffs barely audible over the television static in your brain.
You had figured out by this point that he'd let you pin him, that he was letting you boss him around. His stare shot exhilaration through you, like he was ready to pounce at any minute, and God knows he was so tempted, but it was something else keeping him there. Whether it be that he was too amused or too hypnotized by your menace of movement and order, neither of you knew. Neither of you cared.
"Not so mouthy now, are you Barnes?" you seethed, tugging your fingers back to his cock, now bobbing heavily at his stomach. When he didn't answer, you glared at him. "Speak."
"No, ma'am."
You hummed, an evil satisfaction rippling through you. Absentmindedly you began toying with his dick, eyes trained on his tortured expression. The way he swallowed thickly when you squeezed his base, gasped when your thumb teased feather-light over his tip, whimpered when you traced the underside with one finger.
You felt him throbbing against your palm. Your movements never got any faster, just meaner. Teasing him without giving any real friction, letting the anticipation bring him towards the edge. His hair was beginning to stick to his neck, a thin layer of sweat forming on his forehead. Bucky's eyes were screwed shut, brows were knit together, and in a curious moment of tenderness you almost felt compelled to smooth it out with your thumb.
But when he opened his eyes, so full of need, you lost any lingering resolve for kindness. Your gaze fell back to the knife, now loosened against him as your attention had wandered. You turned it over a few times, watching the reflected glint of light flicker over his collarbone. Bucky let out a shuddering breath when you traced the tip of the blade down his chest, grazing his stomach, then up again.
It was when the blade moved up his throat that your brain short-circuited. The tip pressed ever so slightly against the underside of his chin, tilting his head up to look at you. Lust-blown eyes, hooded and hungry, stared into your soul.
You frowned when you saw Bucky's lip caught in his teeth. "Nuh uh, none of that." You held his jaw firmly in your hand, and his lip fell back into place, followed by a stream of delicious sounds that sent fire licking in your gut.
What you didn't expect, however, was the small line of red on his lower lip, and in a moment of instinct, you dipped your head down to swipe it away with your tongue. Bucky jerked up at the feeling.
His mistake.
Bucky nearly whined when you let go of him, his cock aching and impossibly hard. You sat back, licking your fingers tantalizingly.
"What the fuck?"
"I said don't move, Barnes. Guess you're weaker than I thought."
Bucky tensed his jaw, fingers curling and uncurling furiously. "Please."
You glanced up from your hand in faux boredom. "What was that?"
"You wanted to hear me beg," he grits, hands tugging you so that you were sat firm on his naked lap. "So I'm begging."
"I'm listening."
"Please. Please, princess, need you on my fuckin' cock."
"Go on." You couldn't help the rolling of your hips, which only made him clutch you harder.
"Please."
"That's it, Barnes, you're getting there." Heat swelled in between your legs at his breathless words.
"Please, princess, need you so bad."
"Bucky."
"Please."
"Fuck me."
Just as quickly as you had him pinned, he'd done the same to you. Knife yanked from your grasp and thrown somewhere across the room, Bucky pinned both of your hands down on either side of your head, licking and biting furiously at your neck while his hips rutted frantically over your core.
But that satiated him only for a moment. His hands pulled yours over your head, weighed down while his flesh hand yanked your shorts down to your knees, where you kicked them off.
"Fuckin' soaked, sweetheart. What's got you so worked up?"
You wanted to wipe the stupid grin off his stupid face- he'd probably be honored to let you- but you couldn't deny either that the answer he implied was entirely correct.
You felt his fingers take a handful of thigh, groping and caressing. His eyes flickered from his work to your face and back, relishing in watching your knee twitch and your breath hitch at every brush, every stroke of his thumb over the seam of your underwear.
"Barnes, I swear to God-"
"What? What are you gonna do?" Bucky leaned down, nose brushing yours and hair curtaining around his head. "You wanted me to fuck you. That's what I'm doing."
Any back-handed response you might have had died on your tongue when his hand jerked your underwear aside and cupped your bare cunt, making your back arch into him and mouth fall open in a moan.
Bucky was no stranger to thorough teasing, and on any other occasion he would have gladly employed it, but he wanted you now. And with your wetness webbing on his palm, he didn't need it. His middle finger pushed into you with little resistance, curling and massaging.
"Oh, she likes that." Bucky smirks with far too much satisfaction. "Sucking me right in, crying for me."
And then Bucky nailed it. That spongy spot deep inside of you that obliterated any sense of reason or shame, replacing it with ecstatic need.
"And there she is." Bucky purred, wiping a bead of sweat tickling your hairline. "You know, you put up a good fight, but when it comes down to it, you're a pliant little housecat. All she wants is a little attention and she'll do just about anything for it. Isn't that right?"
You didn't actually give him an answer, but with how enthusiastically you were crying out, you might as well have pledged your allegiance.
"All she wants is a good dicking down, huh? Get all that frustration outta ya, that's what we're gonna do. Fuck you right to sleep."
He'd given you plenty of cue, but the stretch and friction still had you gasping. You watched his patience dissipate the deeper inside of you he got. His hand freed yours, both coming up to grip your hips and pull you closer, until his pubic bone was pressed against your clit.
His hands were shaking from bliss, and when you started rolling your hips up into his he thought he might die. His movements were slow, but firm and deep and enough to have you seeing stars. He knew your body like the back of his hand, knowing exactly how to angle himself so that his cock dragged against you just right, so that his pubic bone soothed the ache in your clit.
"There you go, princess, y'like that? So strung out, so snappy, needed to get that fixed." Bucky's hand pressed against your lower stomach, a gruff noise ripped from him when he felt his cock push up into his palm- you let out a sound similar, the extra pressure sending you into bliss. “That’s a good fuckin’ girl.”
"God, Bucky, right there, right there," you gasped. "Don't stop, don't fucking stop or-"
"Or?" he practically laughed at you. Your lack of response made him actually do it. "Head's so empty, no fuckin' thoughts except how cockdrunk she is."
Although he might have spoken like he wasn't, Bucky was just as intoxicated by the feeling of you, and his movements showed it. His animalistic thrusts, sloppier by the minute, were unrelenting and passionate. His ragged breath swallowed by your lips, feeding into his ears the purest and filthiest visions of sin that he saw when he opened his eyes.
He could feel you dripping onto him, feel your cunt clenching around him. That and every touch of your skin against his and nothing else.
"Y'like that, princess? Can feel you squeezing me, you must be close."
He knew your telltale signs like they'd been branded on the back of his brain, trinkets of knowledge he'd long coveted and hoarded like a dragon with treasure ever since you'd given it to him. His only goal now was to put it to good use, and Lord was he.
Your hands came up to grip his hair, dragging him down into a bruising kiss. When he pulled away, you whimpered, but he only shook his head.
"Gotta hear you, doll, loud and clear. Atta girl, let me hear everything you're feeling."
"God, so good, Bucky, so close," you cried, nails dragging down his chest and leaving pink lines in their wake.
You knew Bucky was saying something, but the ringing in your ears and white blurring your vision overtook your sense as your orgasm washed over you, bathing you in ecstasy.
Bucky's hips pistoned into you manically until they stilled, rolling softly until he spilled into you with a guttural groan.
The both of you lay still for a moment, basking in the afterglow. Runner's high was nothing compared to the satisfaction you'd both pulled from each other.
Suddenly the intercom chimed, shattering the bubble of haze. "For the record, that is most certainly not what that room is for."
"Stark-" Bucky pulled out of you with as much haste as he could manage while both of you were sensitive, throwing you your pants. "What the fuck are you-"
"Don't worry, I can't see you. I can, however, tell you that if that floor is not cleaned, Christ alive I will send you into your next life."
You let out a laugh at Bucky's expression, a mix between indignance and mortification. "At least he didn't waltz in with a bag of popcorn."
"Such a blessing," Bucky retorted, pulling his shirt over his head. "He'd start making comments like a movie critic."
"Or start cheering like it was a wrestling match."
"Dear god, I hate you." Bucky shook his head, the mirth written on his face indicative that his words held no real venom.
"Not what it sounded like a minute ago."
"Oh yeah?" Bucky cocked a brow, pulling you closer by your hands. "What did it sound like a minute ago?"
"Mm, I can't seem to remember." You cocked your head. "C'mon, maybe I'll remember in the shower."

Summary: Everything was good as a member of Payback and Soldier Boy's secret girlfriend until the team and your relationship with him began to fall apart due to a new member and her developing relationship with Ben right in front of your eyes.
Pairing: Soldier Boy / Reader
Warnings: Language
Word Count: 4624
A/N: English is not my first language.
* This story is inspired by the song "Losing You" by Dream Evil.
It was quite the struggle to train with Ben for a week, especially when he took it extremely seriously and pushed you to the very limit. It was not that he hurt you; it was that in the lab you either lost your will to fight or you just got really weak.
There were moments when you stated to Ben that things might get serious about your power, but he chose to ignore you and aggravated the training, which left you worn out. But you were relieved that he could, in his own irritating way, encourage you that your strength was still there.
Ben answered, “No,” right away when you wanted to stop the exercise.
Right now, the entire home was a mess, and the hole you had made in the wall remained.
“I'm tired here, Ben,” you complained as you fell to the ground, gasping for air. You had been there exercising together since the morning, and it was nearly the sun going down. Except when you needed to eat or pee, he rarely gave you a moment's peace of mind. “I mean it. I'm done.”
You opened your hands wide on the ground, and he looked at your body while saying, “You're a supe; you can't just feel exhausted that easily.”
You blushed as you noticed him staring at your soaked entire body and replied, “Give me some break.” There's a good chance that you were both thinking the same thing. “How on earth can you find that much energy? Even for a supe, it's too much.”
Ben stared at you and then took off the shirt he had taken off hours earlier, wiping the sweat from his muscular chest. You grimaced, knowing you probably smelled like trash.
“It's because I am the strongest; I am not just any average Supe.” With the most arrogant way possible, he threw his t-shirt back to the ground and said, “Simply better and more powerful than anyone. But don't worry; we'll return you to the way things were, sweetie. You have my word.”
He gave you a sneaky smirk when he saw you staring at his broad, sweat-damp chest. Ben was waiting for you, literally, from above, all the time you tried to get some rest. His eyes narrowed, and you suspected his head was full of filthy stuff.
You just muttered, “I hope so,” and avoided giving him a glance as you closed your eyes.
He sighed and went down on the floor next to you, crossing his big arms over his head.
“Don't think about it that much. You're going to do even better than you are now. Maybe we should just do those trainings more frequently. What do you say?”
“It’s fine. I don’t have another choice anyway,” you replied, cutting it short while keeping your eyes closed. Even if you felt his intense stare on your face, you didn’t react. “What did the doctor tell you, by the way? The one who supervised Compound V's improvement for decades?”
You remembered that there was a lot of discussion following the news that Ben had killed him at his home. You kind of hoped you could have dealt with that cruel piece of shit on your own, though. He was just a monster with a white robe. He had always made an aggressive attempt to cause damage to you and showed no sympathy or compassion for anyone. You got scared and insecure when you opened your eyes, recalling the physical harm he had inflicted.
“Fucking piece of shit!” Ben angrily exclaimed, his fists clenched over his head. “I should have killed him properly.”
“What did he say, so you blew up?”
“Isn't it obvious? That pussy told me how little supes are in the big picture of science, the future of the supremes, humanity, and some other bullshit. It's certain that Vough paid that cocksucker generously during all those years. He lived in luxury, torturing us, and he didn’t even regret it.”
“Did he tell you what kind of research he did on my body?” You asked as you moved your body to face him.
Ben fell silent for a minute, enraged by what he remembered the doctor had said about you. Nevertheless, his eyes softened as he saw your expression and saw that you were excited to hear what he was about to say and that you were feeling at ease and comfortable next to him. That was all he needed. Ben recognized that if he made a determined attempt to be by your side and touch you in the way he desired, you would push him even further away and that you weren't
ready for physical contact at this time. He therefore forced himself to keep his distance from you and let you do whatever you wanted.
He just turned to face you and stated, “I didn't give him enough time to talk,” straightening his posture and sitting straight up on the floor. “He's just an animal, and he sees supes as rats for research in order to make profit. That's all.”
“When we agreed to live this life as supers, Ben, we already knew that.” You said bitterly, “People in charge always wanted to play with us like we were toys. They used us as they pleased and needed us for their own good. I wanted to leave the company for a number of reasons, one of which was that I was unaware of how serious that whole picture was. What I need to learn is what they succeeded in doing during the decades we were unconscious and at their mercy.”
Ben sighed and got up to get some weed from the nearest table, just after helping you off the floor.
“I was told by that son of a bitch that he examined you to make the future supers flawless. Though I'm not really sure what he meant, it seems to me that Queen Maeve—the woman from Seven—is their new you.”
“Do you think they might have found a way to weaken me? Don't say 'no' right away,” you said in a hurry when he opened his lips to object. “It just doesn't feel right about what's going on and everything.”
Your concerns, which were constantly lurking beneath the surface, took over when you realized that Ben had remained silent. Something was off with you, you two sensed that. Although after your first training day you felt a little stronger, your weakness remained under your skin.
You pulled open a window to let some fresh air in and muttered, “If you hadn't just killed the doctor, we could have learned about it.”
Ben offered you one of the glasses and sighed as if he regretted what he had done, filling the other one with wine. “I didn't intentionally kill him. It simply happened beyond my control. But I would still murder him anyway.”
You raised an eyebrow and sat down, realizing that your tiredness was taking over. “You need to find a way to control it since your nerves are always on edge,” you said. “And also, I need to find someone who can understand all of this.”
Ben sat beside you, stretching his muscles and leaning back into the coach while he listened to you attentively. As you spoke, you noticed that your gaze lingered a little too long on his sweating body, almost making you flush.
He studied your expression to see how you would react to his suggestion. He said, “I guess the best option is to kidnap or torture a doctor who is in charge or fuckever who's doing supe studies for Vought right now. We can use Mindstorm to look at your memories and thoughts to see whether they have hurt you in any way.”
His suggestion caused your eyes to widen with excitement, and you exclaimed, “That's actually a smart idea. But how are we supposed to find him?”
“Remember the new technology, sweetheart. Anything is possible with these phones, Bluetooth, and GPS technology. Remember how I found you very easily?”
You gave a nod to him, knowing that what he stated was right and that you would be able to reach Mindstorm with ease thanks to modern technology.
After you had your shower, you saw Ben watching the TV with a dead serious face, and you sat beside him.
As you used the towel in your hand to dry your damp hair, you inquired, “Is there any news about us? Almost a week has passed.”
“Not much,” he replied as he continued to listen to Homelander talk about the two of you.
‘They pose no threat to the United States,’ Homelander confidently stated, grinning, as he extended his arms and turned to face the screen. 'As Seven, we've been trying to find them for a week, but it looks like they are hiding pretty well,' he continued. I, Homelander, the Seven's leader, swear to you that they shall answer for their actions. It has been proven that Soldier Boy rescued Y/N, and it's very likely that the two of them murdered the hapless doctors as well as every lab employee in cold blood and without hesitation.'
You and Ben exchanged a look as Homelander continued his speech. ‘Their families and children are in agony even though our government gives them the best care they can. These two criminals are responsible for the deaths of the orphans whose parents they killed. It breaks our hearts to see them weeping and grieving the loss of their families. There are even toddlers among them. Soldier Boy and Y/N will be held liable and made to pay for the harm they caused to the United States and its citizens. They have little time to conceal; they cannot get away.’
As the audience gave him a loud applause and he flew opening his arms out like.
Ben angrily said, “Fuck that. Son of a bitch,” and threw the remote control onto the table in front of him. “They were just another piece of shits who enjoyed torturing supes, nothing else.”
“But I didn't kill anyone,” you mumbled. “We are past the point of self-justification. Homelander is basically controlling the crowds. They would never pay to listen to us, Ben.”
Ben stared at the TV and said, “I'll teach them how to listen,” in a menacing manner. “You see? It's no longer about Butcher and his useless group. It has to do with our future.”
You could have argued with him about the future, but all you wanted was to avoid getting into another fight with Ben.
“I think such a guy wouldn't be innocent at all. We might be able to defeat the company if we can figure out how to properly express ourselves, explain to them how Vought tricked us, and show the real Homelander to the rest of the world. There isn't another way.”
“I know, I know,” he muttered.
As you could tell Ben was becoming enraged and feeling overwhelmed, you touched his bare chest, which had a little glow to it. “Hey, are you okay?”
He responded with, “I am,” placing his hand on yours and giving you a gentle squeeze.
“Can you please stop getting angry for a second? I can sense the heat building in your chest.” You muttered, “You're stressing me out here,” but you didn't remove your hand from his upper body. You could feel him cooling down beneath your touch once again. It was fine as long as it worked; you simply didn't know why.
“Well,” he said, arching an eyebrow, licking his lips, allowing you to touch him, and gently tracing his fingers over yours. His powerful, slow beats were calming in a way. “It's not too bad. Is it?”
You withdrew your hand from his sweating chest while rolling your eyes at him and making sure he was okay.
Ben had just showered when Butcher and Hughie showed up at the house.
Butcher remarked in a sly manner, “Glad, I delayed for an hour coming here to pick up you two,” as you and Ben got into the back of the car. “We could have interrupted something funny, judging by the all-wet hairs and all.”
“We were just finished training there!” you exclaimed, your face heated.
“It must be very good training, indeed. The entire fucking house was damaged like hell. You two spent a whole week all showering and training while we were dealing with the shit Soldier Boy caused.”
“Sorry for that, but it's not what you think, really.”
“I thought Soldier Boy and Crimson were having a relationship. Yet life goes on, don't they? There are always new, fine chickens and dolls all around.” Butcher smirked at Ben.
You were ready to add something about Ben and you having nothing to do, but Ben became enraged right away when Butcher brought up the Crimson Countess.
“Don't you fucking know how to stay silent and shut your useless mouth?” Butcher was obviously enjoying himself when he suddenly made Ben mad.
“What made you so furious now? Have I said anything untrue?”
Hughie leaned back in his seat and said, “Butcher, stop that,” sounding distressed as Ben continued to swear at them both and told Hughie to make Buther to suck him soon, so his mouth would be filled enough not to talk stupid.
“Why even do you become irate out of nowhere? After all, you murdered the poor woman.”
You looked up at Ben, asking with disbelief, “What? Why did you even kill Countess?”
The fact that Ben never brought it up startled you even more than Butcher's statement, as though it were nothing important. You were stunned and shocked beyond belief. At that point, you were at a loss for what to think. You were not sympathetic to her, though. After all, Vought used her as a cunning evil to harm both you and Ben. She was the one who paid you a visit in order to deceive you that day.
He tried to convince you immediately, giving you a gentle look as if he wanted you to understand what he had done. “She deserved whatever I've done,” he defended himself.
You acknowledged, “I know she did. But why?”
He looked at Butcher and then turned to face you, almost whispering, “Let's discuss this at a later time. All right?”
You found Annie nowhere to be found when you got to Butcher's home, where only Kimiko and Frenchie were inside. Kimiko watched Frenchie play with his phone, seeming bored.
“Why did it take so long for you to come here?” Frenchie inquired in an irritated manner to Butcher. “You give me too much to deal with, though you know I have things to do. Kimiko is also exhausted.”
Butcher sarcastically remarked, “Hello to you too, baby,” as he removed his coat. “I have not even once heard a complaint from her; she is an incredible Supe. She can't possibly be exhausted, right, doll?”
Ben moved you over to the edge of the coach and sat by you, resting his legs on the table, just as you were about to strike up a conversation with Kimiko. You were fine with him being close, though, so you said nothing at all. In fact, if you were honest with yourself enough, you would admit that his behavior around you somewhat comforted you.
“Kimiko and I have spent days looking for Black Noir and Queen Maeve, but we haven't made any progress so far. It's strange that they were absent from everything for so long. You see, something isn't quite right. According to Starlight, they have vanished.”
“The fuck you mean they are missing?” Butcher asked in disbelief.
“Why would Noir would go missing? It's not his thing to disappear,” you said. You thought you were thinking to yourself, but you had said it loud.
“He must have ran away when he saw us back together,” Ben said in am amused tone. “He fucking knows I'm going to kill him too. He’s a fucking dead man.”
You told Ben, “There must be a reason,” ignoring the way he talked about taking Earving's life. Right now, you don't need to see Ben being enraged over Noir and losing his temper again.
“How the fuck doesn't Starlight know where Queen Maeve is?” Butcher questioned Hughie.
Hughie took his head in his hands and responded, “She thinks Homelander did something to her. Maybe he killed Maeve.”
“How about Ninja Cunt, though? He is known as Homelander's right wing. Suppose he murdered Maeve. What about Noir?”
Frenchie remarked, “That's what I'm trying to understand,” and Kimiko communicated with him using sign language swiftly.
“All right, we'll watch out for this and see if he shows up again.” Butcher ended it quickly and continued. “Tomorrow, Soldier Boy and I are heading to New York.”
You eyed Butcher with suspicion, asking, “Why and why not me?”
“You two stayed at a lovely house for a week, for God’s sake. Aren't all of the showers enough? Is it not possible for you to separate for even a single day? Would you really miss this cunt that much?”
As Butcher continued to make assumptions about you and Ben, your face heated. Kimiko and Frenchie turned to face you in harmony, taken aback.
“You're just making the wrong assumptions.” You distanced yourself from Ben and explained, “It's not like that,” acting as though you had been proven guilty. Ben didn't appear to be supportive when you stared at him, yet it seemed as though he was okay with Butcher's comments. “What I want to know is what you're going to be doing here and why I have to stay here.”
“Yes, doll. To catch up with your old friend TNT Twins, we are going to join Herogasm. It's almost like we have to clear your names first. Maybe they know anything about the specifics of those events from decades ago, and they could say something that we could use against Vought. Though things might get messy soon, don't you worry, I'm going to keep an eye on your soldier so that he won't be pouding into any supe cunt there,” he said with a wicked smile.
Ben said, “Maybe we can also find a thing about Mindstorm there,” giving you a meaningful glance and a small touch on the arm before you could respond. You nodded to him.
“However, why must I stay here?”
“Kimiko needs to get some work done, and we need more muscle to help Frenchie and Hughie here. Let's don't take too much attention.”
“Okay,” you said, acknowledging the situation and giving up on further arguments. Herogasm was something you've always detested and loathed. Ben, the founder of it, was making it even worse. Yet the one thing about Ben's inconsistent anger—the energy in his chest—that scared you was his unpredictable temper. You weren't sure if he could find a way to control it soon enough.
You questioned Hughie, “By the way, where is Annie?” As a member of Vought and Seven, you were aware of how difficult it must be to handle the entire company's evil by yourself.
“I don't think she'll find Maeve anytime soon, but she's doing some research in order to locate her. She seemed to have disappeared in a heartbeat.”
You figured she was kind of involved in this too, based on the way they talked about her.
Ben abruptly stood up and stated, “I guess all the rooms are full. So, which room are Y/N and I staying in tonight?”
“Not full,” Hughie smiled in response. “I suppose there are now two available rooms since I will be seeing Annie tonight.”
Kimiko nodded quickly as she gave a smile to you.
Ben's expression darkened as Hughie continued to tell him and Annie that they would not be staying in this house any longer, while Ben quietly cursed. He glanced at you for a moment, but you ignored him and asked Kimiko to show you the room where you would be sleeping.
After an hour of inspecting the room and all of the furniture within, you heard a light knock on the door and knew it was Ben.
After a minute, you said, “Come in,” startled that Ben was holding back, opening the door this time without your permission.
He whispered, “As you wish, baby,” and carefully shut the door behind him.
In the dim light, his hair fell over his forehead, and his white t-shirt made your heart melt just a bit. Under his large arms, his t-shirt was too tight. Perhaps you weren't used to seeing him in his regular clothes, which is why you were still excited when you were around him.
“What now?” you muttered as you sat on the bed and observed him approach you.
He joked, “Don't get excited; I'm just here to make some conversation,” and sat down next to you right away.
You said, almost in a whisper, “Which is about?” while he briefly studied your body.
His darkened eyes lingered on your revealing nightgown, but you remained silent, intensifying the tension in the moment.
Ben's desire to force your body to the covers, get on top of you, take off your sweatpants, and get you ready for some post-breakup fucking was unbearable. He was well aware that you never touched yourself when you were by yourself in the house, and that really disturbed him because he knew that he was the reason for it. Ben could tell by the way you looked at him and by the beating in your heart that your body still yearned for him, but he also understood that he had to rebuild your trust in every way. He had to take care of his meat by hand up until that point.
After sighing and searching for the right words, Ben uttered, “About the thing I told you that we can discuss later.” He made an effort not to speak about Crimson bitch right away. She was the reason your nerves were already fragile. He had no reason to blame you for it.
As he attempted to read how you were feeling, you questioned in a cold voice, “Why did you kill her? Was it unintentional?”
You were curious as to whether he truly intended to murder her or if this was just another unintentional incident similar to the others. You needed to comprehend it, even though you didn't know why it mattered.
After a while, he said, “I blew up,” and when you realized he hadn't done it on purpose to exact vengeance for you, your posture straightened.
Ben said, “I was just trying to get information about you and your location before killing her,” as soon as he saw the look on your face. “I was cautious to do anything until she had spoken about you. But I was unable to control myself when she touched my nerves.”
“Did you kill her just because she was unfaithful?” You questioned him suspiciously, attempting to make sense of his motivations. Ben might tell you the truth or a lie, but you would still listen to him even if you weren't sure he would be completely honest with you. “In the end, it's her who deceived you. Whether Vought commanded her or not is important. She was the one who brought you there so they could capture you and then transport you to Russia.”
After pausing to comprehend what you were asking, Ben responded, “I would kill her anyway because of what she had done to both of us,” as if he had no idea how to answer properly. “Especially to you.”
You said, your eyes softening with sorrow, “I wonder what you would do to me if I were the one to trick you, Ben,” knowing that, after all these years, loyalty was what mattered most to him. “Even if I had every right to do so.”
“I would never hurt you,” he abruptly rejected, emphasizing each word in a hard voice. “I knew I would deserve it anyway.”
“I'm not so sure of that, Ben,” you said. “You're even more dangerous considering I'm getting weaker and you're ready to blow up anytime.”
His smile expanding, he added, “Hey, don't say such things,” took one of your hands, placed it on his warm chest, and whispered, “You have every power over me.”
Under his focused gaze, your face flushed, and after a moment, you reluctantly withdrew your hand.
“So, you're going to Herogasm tomorrow?” you said, attempting to change the topic. “Given how difficult it was to persuade you not to join decades earlier, you must have missed it quite a lot.”
“Are you feeling jeaolus?” he asked with a mischievous smile, and you grimaced.
“Why should I be? I'm just saying you might have missed the chance to join the party that you organized after all this time.”
“I'm not going there to fuck, baby; I'm not interested anymore,” he murmured, retaining an arrogant chuckle. “I'm going to call you when I get there.”
“I'm not sure.” You said to quit talking about Herogasm anymore. “I might be busy to pick up when you call.” Herogasm was the world's dumbest thing, especially since Ben founded it.
“Why may be you even busy, anyway?” This time Ben uttered serious words: “I'll call you nonstop, so keep your phone with you every moment.”
You responded with the same heedlessness, “I might.”
Ben smiled playfully and narrowed his eyes. “Since you too need to take care of yourself, it will actually be good for us to be apart for just a small amount of time.”
You naively asked, “About what?” as though he would make a crucial point.
“You might as well relax on this bed while I'm away because I’m pretty aware of you're not touching yourself, knowing I'd hear you in a second, huh?”
You became the deepest shade of scarlet in your cheeks and murmured, “I can't believe you.”
“I'm not making fun,” he declared with seriousness. “It is also a bodily necessity. You don't have to reject playing with yourself a bit. Being the reason is something that irritates me a lot.”
“I don't feel ashamed of taking care of myself because of you or anything else,” you immediately argued, ignoring the heat on your cheeks. “I have no problem touching myself while you're here. It's not all that important.”
Ben arched an eyebrow at your quick, brave, “If you say so,” followed by a sigh.
“I'm serious here, Ben,” you continued, growing agitated by his haughty demeanor and enormous ego. “I'll prove it.”
He studied your figure and growled in a low voice, “I won't promise that I won't focus on you or listen to the way you sound.”
“Then don't.”

Theory of Love Romcom Watch Along Episode 5 : 10 Things I Hate About You (Lazy Unhinged Edition)
Well well well well well well well well well (somebody stop me) well well well. It's 10 Things i Hate About You time, i haven't watch this movie since i was a wee little lad and i can say with my whole chest that this movie mostly hold up despite me not being snarky 15 years old anymore (i'm still snarky just not 15 anymore T_T) unlike many of my friends that participate in this project i'm probably the least familiar with shakespeare's works which i like to ratify soon since i tend to enjoys shakespeare modern adaptations and references. like my biggest fictional sad old man crush is based on Prospero from the Tempest ffs. anyway one thing that stuck out to as very positive for me from this movie is how poetically it feels i never read the The Taming of the Shrew but i noticed some line that probably came from the play, the well written scripts and the dialogues feels witty and sharp this movie did came off as a very well done modern (1999) take of shakespeare work.
Now to a side segment just for this week it's time to throw shades at Mr. Jojo Tichakorn as i had promised my good friend @lurkingshan. THK, The Heart forking Killers. first let let me say some positive stuff so some of you nerds would know that i'm not just a hater (i'm a snarky slightly crazy bitch that hope one day these posts would not come back and bite me in the ass when i enter the BL industry.)
THK mostly did an ok Job as adaptations/inspired by of 10 Things i Hate About You, some emotion do works well translate from the movie and i will give credit where the credit due i think the fall out and the resolution after the lie got discovered is handled pretty good in the show unlike the movie where it feels rushed and half baked.
Ok now after i said the all nice things let get mean!! most of THK dialogues are lame AF. it's like someone took a lot of the wittiness of the movie out and replaced that with lame tired and cliche BL dialogues. most of the actors ate their roles but even that some lines feels listless and lack flair. instead of charm the show sometime came off as trying too hard or trying too little to be charming. and that is the problem Thai language as a tonal language has a lot of possibility to do and says so much more interesting stuff but because it's a GMMTV show the dialogues feels stripped of any potential and ended up being generic and sanitized.
I'm the same with @solitaryandwandering feelling about the side stories. i'm so bored with them, i love you mike with all my heart but i can't spend another minute watching you and what her face hitting on each other. that being said i'm still intrigued by our main fuckboi Khai and loser with zero braincell Third even tho they're aggravating me so much. Khai continuingly semi unpurposefully hurts Third but the crack starts to show in this ep that he seems to some degree to know what is going on with Third.
In Thai he says "When he came to sleep with me like a wife, then i'd talk nicely to him." Khai maybe is in deny or he just an absolute asshole that let his subconscious hurts Third this badly. but it's clear he is catching up and acting out on purpose. and Third in his infinitely dumbassery refused to uses his god danm words. and the end those two ended were they always do uncommunicative and stuck in the a cycle of this toxic friendships. these two needs time out and spend time apart to reevaluate themselves and grows as people before i'd buy any kind of kind romantic relationship. but this is a BL sooo let see where this goes.

Take Your Medicine
A tale from The Once-Old Faith
Read it on AO3, or below the cut
Lambert wakes up early for her yearly doctor's appointment, only to realize that her husband is several millennia behind on his vaccinations.
So @circuscountdowns got bored and made a silly little animation, and I had to get the story written so I could focus on the rest of life.
1st day of spring, 1290 CC, Rapture
Lambert woke with the sun to greet the new year. She started her usual bout of stretching, legs first, back, then arms. Thunk. She froze, glancing over to see her right hand resting against Narinder's face. One red eye was open, glaring at her just over the offending appendage.
"Uh, oops? Sorry, hun," she said groggily.
The eye looked toward the window, squinting in the early morning sunlight, judging the time. He looked back at Lambert. "You're lucky I love you, dear lamb," the cat grumbled moodily. "Why did we sleep with the curtains open? Waking this early is a curse."
Lambert laughed, finally removing her hand from Narinder's face. "I always like to wake early on Maitiidsdei. I go see my doctor for my yearly checkup, start the year on the right hoof."
"Laaambeeert," Narinder said, half tired whine, half frustrated growl, "you're immortal now." He batted at the golden amulet around her neck. "You do not have to go to the doctor. Therefore, you do not have to wake up early. Therefore, you do not have to punch me in the face at the crack of fucking dawn."
"Oh, hush," Lambert said with a giggle. "God of death, terror of the city's criminals, and here you are whining about waking up early. I'm starting to think you should come with me, just so you leave the apartment before noon one day this year." Narinder didn't say anything, just let out a thin growl while he pulled the covers over his head.
"Hells, when was the last time you saw a doctor, anyway? Any time this past millennium?"
The cat's voice was muffled through the blankets. "Kallamar gives each of us a check-up every century or so. He's quite insistent about it."
"Well, at least that's something. But I doubt you're up to date on your vaccinations." She could practically feel the cat's aggravation. "Of course I'm not. I am a god. I do not get sick. You bear my immortality amulet. You do not get sick either."
Lambert sighed at him. "Maybe not, but I'm still me. I'd assume I can still carry diseases, right?"
"That is a question for Kallamar."
"Fine," she said, "until he corrects me, I'll assume I'm right. I can make other people sick, even if I don't have to worry about it. Staying up to date on my shots and medical care means I'll harm others less. You should do the same. When was the last time Kallamar–"
"Never."
Lambert paused for a moment, then said, "OK, then, you're coming with me." Narinder pulled the blankets tighter around his head. "I am not. Begone, Lambert. Go see your doctor." There was another pause, then suddenly the cat was fighting for his (very) metaphorical life. Lambert ripped the blankets away and grabbed him around the waist, then started hauling him bodily out of bed.
For a few minutes, Narinder put on his best angry act and pretended to wrestle his wife as best he could. He finally lost the fight with his internal giggling when she tried forcibly pulling a shirt over his head. There wasn't a chance in the hells of her succeeding if he didn't allow it, and within a few seconds he'd managed to cause both of them to become tangled in the fabric.
"Ha ha ha! Alright, peace, wife. I'll put the shirt on." Lambert smiled at him fiercely as she pulled her arm from one of the sleeves. "Good kitty." He smirked back at her as he finished pulling his clothes on. "And what about you?" he asked. "Are you planning to go naked?" The sheep looked down at herself. "Hmm, maybe. I do look pretty damn good." Narinder chuckled, low and throaty. "Indeed you do, my dear. But you have an appointment to keep, so stop tempting me to waste time." Lambert stuck her tongue out at him as she started pulling on her own clothes.
When they both finished dressing, Narinder turned for the door. "Have a good visit with your physician. I have some things to take care of at the bar." He opened the front door and was halfway through it when Lambert caught up, grabbing him by one ear and tugging his head down slightly. "Oh no you don't, Narinder!"
"Gah! Unhand me woman! I am the god of death, not some house cat!"
Lambert dragged him, fairly gently, toward the stairs. "Damn right you're the god of death," she muttered. "I wonder how many outbreaks of diseases you've started. Probably been carrying some weird version of typhus around for 3,000 years. You're coming with me, and you're getting your damn shots!"
***
Hours later, Marcus walked into the Five Crowns Tavern to open for the day. Narinder was seated at the bar, working in his accounting ledger. Twice in the time it took him to cross the bar floor, he saw the cat throw a glare at his wife. Lambert, for her part, was hiding a slight grin behind a beer glass.
"Heya, everything alright?" Marcus asked.
Lambert giggled. "He's very upset with me. I made him catch up on a few thousand years worth of shots this morning."
"Oh, thank the gods," the man muttered. "I was worried I was gonna catch something from him that would kill me one of these days."
Narinder spun around on his bar stool, throwing his arms wide. "Why didn't you say anythin–" The words were cut off by a tiny yell and a string of curses as his upper arm suddenly cramped. Lambert's laugh rang from the far end of the bar. "Doc told you to keep that arm moving, but nooooooo, the god of death needs to do his accounting."

I have inadventently entered my Jefferson Pierce era.
It all started while I was reading some preboot!Talia comics I had left, and she happened to appear in two issues of Black Lightning: Year One (AND she wasn't written as the world's most aggravating orientalist stereotype, despite this being the 2010s!!). Oh well, I thought. It's only six issues long, and I like Black Lightning, so I might as well read the whole thing! That's how they get you, but sometimes it's nice. The mini-series was neat. A bit too neat at a couple of places, but a fun, enjoyable and short read.
Then I started reading The Other History of the DC Universe. It's a five-issues mini-series that retells the story of the 'verse through the perspectives and narration of non-white characters. I'm over halfway through, but I'm reading it slowly, because each chapters deserves to be chewed on properly.
The first issue is centered on Jefferson, and it's the strongest by far. I LOVE how he is written, in particular. The good and the bad. How neither he, nor the narrative, pulls punches, towards others OR towards Jefferson and his real, truly ugly flaws. It specifically refuses to pull punches on the same parts I felt were a bit too neat in BL:YO, which made it amusing to read those almost back to back.
Then, between yesterday and today, I read Detective Comics #983-987, and Batman and the Outsiders (2019), two arcs from my Duke Thomas Reading List where Jefferson has a central part. The latter even sparked a brand new ship, which is rare for me with modern comics.
The ship in question is Jefferson and Tatsu Yamashiro, aka Katana. TOH's third issue is narrated by her, and there were a couple of things during it that made me wonder if I was reading too much re: the two of them. Nothing outwardly romantic, just Tatsu herself reading into their commonalities and contrast (with focus on their family loses: her murdered husband and sons, and her stranged ex-wife and daughters), and then a particularly resonant moment where Tatsu is awed and immensely happy for Jefferson, because he gets to be in a team with his daughter, that got to me. Then BATO went and made their feelings for each other explicit and messy and well. Of course I was going to be weak for that. Have you met me.
Anyway. Yeah. Me in my Jefferson Pierce era. It's been fun so far. I should pick the Black Lightning show back up and finish it once and for all. Though of course I maintain my attachment to comics (preboot) continuity most of all, so I'll be expanding my focus there, eventually (there are so, so many interesting comics in my to-read list).
#this is going to sidetrack me from other pending comics i want to read but whatever#also no tatsu in that show but i remember digging jefferson/lynn and the family dynamics so#talking to the void#my thoughts#dc#dc thoughts#dc comics#jefferson pierce#tatsu yamashiro#black lightning#the other history of the dc universe#batman and the outsiders (2019)

If you're still doing the kiss ask game... 7 and 29 for the golden wives 👀 (they're all such good prompts though!!)
Hi friend, thank you so much!! And I'm sorry for making you wait so long for these, haha. I needed more time than foreseen to flesh out my ideas! They got somewhat long, so I'll place them under a cut -- I really hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them!
(A special thanks to @queenofquestions for giving me a hand with my English -- specifically, for helping me realize I did not, in fact, know what a dressing gown and a negligée are.)
Send me a Ship and a Number and I will Write a Kiss...
7. …to shut them up.
“Did I ever tell you girls about Gøran Lindgren?”
She rests her forehead on her hand. Blanche, sitting at her usual place next to her, audibly groans.
“He was St Olaf’s most meticulous gardener...”
She sighs a long, silent sigh. This is gearing up to be a long one, even by Rose’s standards. She’s picked her moment well; there’s nowhere they have to be, on this lazy Saturday morning, no previous engagement to offer an escape route. There is only them, their cups of coffee slowly growing colder on the kitchen table, and the inexorable march of Rose’s anecdote towards… she’s not sure what, but whatever the ending is, she can already feel its aggravating power creeping up along her arms.
“... the slightest thing could set him off! He used to climb up people’s trees and give a stern talking-to to the birds, because they were singing in C-major instead of C-sharp major. I can’t tell you how many times we had to convince him to just tune down his shears!”
In her desperation, she makes a mistake. She meets eyes with Blanche.
Resistance is futile, she knows. What Blanche asks, Blanche generally gets, especially when her goals ultimately coincide with Dorothy’s own; she can’t resist her, can’t resist either of them – they always win, in the long run. Her blue blue eyes plead, with all the intensity they can muster: Dorothy, please, do something!
What am I supposed to do?, she silently asks, opening her hands to point out her helplessness. There’s not even a newspaper around…
I don’t know, but please, do it quick, Blanche pleads back. I don’t know how much more I can take!
“... the thing was, nobody could fire him because he was the only one who could shape people’s hedges and make them look like snowmen - you know, so the real snowmen people made in the winter wouldn’t feel out of place…”
You know how she is when she gets started with one of her stories, she argues.
Blanche reaches for her hand over the kitchen table, a desperate expression on her face. I know, but can’t you try anyway?
“... but then Mrs Skjeggestad, the president of the local Viking History and Cheese-Making association, asked him to…”
There is nothing I can do.
Not with that attitude, Blanche huffs, exasperated. Come up with something!
“... kept arguing that he couldn’t make the hedges sharp enough! But she insisted…”
Blanche–
Oh, honey, come on, I’m sure you can find a way!
“... decided to cover the hedges in armor – the one knights wear, you know, not the piece of furniture…”
Please? Please please?
“... but it just kept slipping off – you wouldn’t know how hard it is to dress a hedge in the shape of a longenhörden! It was…”
Dorothy?
“... they heard it all the way to St Gustav, and…”
Darling, will you–
“Oh, alright, alright!,” she finally explodes. There’s only so much she can take, and this combined effort is way over the line. So it’s up to her to shut Rose up? Fine, but at least she’ll get something nice out of it. “Come closer, Rose.”
“What is it, Dorothy?”
She lingers against her lips — in part because, despite her initial intentions, it can't help but become a real kiss, not just the quickest thing she could think of to shut her up; in part because she always forgets, how lovely it feels to kiss Rose, no matter how often she does it. She cups her cheek, indulging in the warmth of the blush she can feel under her fingertips, and Rose smiles into her, and it feels like her heart is going to burst.
When they separate, to her (likely unwarranted) surprise, they’re both speechless. Rose blinks at her a few times, her pretty eyes wide with wonder. “Thank you, Dorothy,” she finally says, with the most beautiful smile, and Dorothy’s heartbeat picks up all over again.
“Hmm. Thank you too, honey,” she murmurs, reaching for her hand. With the corner of her eyes, she catches Blanche hiding an amused smile behind her coffee cup.
The kitchen is quiet, for a while. From the open window comes a delightful breeze, and even more delightful birdsong. Blanche sips on her coffee; Rose plays with the tablecloth with her free hand, a private smile on her lovely face, and Dorothy absent-mindedly plays with her other hand in turn, indulging in the softness of her palm, mapping out her fingers with her thumb, and thinking that half of a St Olaf story is a small price to pay for such a sweet kiss, all things considered.
… that is, until Rose pipes up again.
“... well, anyway, and you won’t believe this – the members of the Viking History and Pattern Knitting association organised a protest in front of the mayor’s office, because the details of the armor weren’t historically accurate…”
She sighs. There’s not even any point getting annoyed anymore; she did what she could, she got something nice out of it, and she can ride that happiness until the certainly ludicrous conclusion to Rose’s monologue, so she might as well stay put. There’s no point fighting the inevitable, as they well know. She meets eyes with Blanche, to make her apology… and, to her surprise, finds that she doesn’t seem one bit disheartened.
Blanche?, she silently asks, confused.
You had a good idea, Dorothy, but if that’s what you’re going for, you need to really get into it, Blanche answers as she stands up, with a familiar mischievous glint in her eyes. Let me show you how it’s done.
“... and then they… Blanche?”
She has to cover her eyes.
Blanche doesn’t pull any punches; she half-climbs on top of the chair, on top of Rose, who flutters for a bit, surprised, and then rests her hands somewhere around Blanche’s shoulder blades, under her negligée. It’s the kind of kiss that makes her feel like a kid caught with her hand in the jar; it’s the kind of kiss that makes her grateful for Ma’s many activities, that bring her out of the house so she can’t always be there to sneak up on them. The colour will take a long, long time to drain from her cheeks – that is, if she can even bring her breathing back under control, first.
Once Blanche is done, she pulls back just slightly, with a resounding smack, and Rose’s dumbfounded face re-emerges over her shoulder.
“… Blanche?”
“You’ll have to forgive me, honey,” Blanche explains, cupping her cheeks. This might have started as a little game between them, Dorothy thinks, but the sincerity she reads in Blanche’s eyes cannot be mistaken. “You just looked so pretty, I couldn’t help myself. You didn’t mind, did you?”
“Oh, no! I’m always happy when you two kiss me,” Rose answers, with the most precious smile.
She can’t help but smile back. Blanche can’t help herself either, of course; she bends down to place another peck on Rose’s cheek, and then heads back to her place, stopping along the way to leave a victory smooch on Dorothy’s temple. She can’t complain; Blanche has more than earned the right to brag. Shutting Rose up in the middle of a story is a remarkable feat.
Well, you were right, she shrugs. It was possible. I can’t believe it.
Blanche flashes a self-satisfied smile at her. See? You just needed to have a little faith in my abilities.
She half-stifles a laugh. There really isn’t a moment of quiet with the two of them around, is there? Every moment is a new surprise. Even after years together, even when she thinks she’s got their whole dynamic figured out, whenever she least expects it, there they are, coming up with yet another small way to bring joy into her li–
“So anyway, I was saying, about the civil suit…”
She almost bursts out laughing at Blanche’s shocked expression, and pats her hand, as comfortingly as she can. There’s nothing for it: some things are too strong, even for the best of kisses.
29. …as a promise.
“Why, Rose! What was that for?”
“Oh, nothing,” she lies, scrunching her nose. “I was just in the mood for it.”
She doesn’t like lying, but after all, it’s not like she can tell her the truth. Blanche would be mortified, if she did. Everybody’s very open about their feelings, back in St Olaf, but she’s grown to understand that her roommates aren’t quite as fond of being seen for who they really are, even if it’s plain as day. How could she help figuring it out, when Blanche kept them up way past their usual bedtime with a cheesecake at the kitchen table, finding new desserts and new stories to tell whenever it seemed as though they were ready to call it a night? And if that wasn’t enough, there was no way to mistake Blanche’s firm grip on her wrist when she dragged her into Dorothy’s room, marching right on their friend’s tail, because she ‘heard there was an escaped convict on the loose, so we’d better all stick together for the night’ (even though nobody else heard it on the news).
No, there’s really no way to mistake it. Even Dorothy caught on to it; she only complained a tiny bit when Blanche slipped under the covers with her, with Rose in tow. It’s clear in the way she hurries to get comfortable on the mattress, as close to Dorothy as she can be without properly cuddling up to her, and in the way she motions for Rose to quickly follow suit: Blanche needs them tonight, she needs them close and present and there (which puzzled her, initially, but it makes a lot of sense, when she considers that little somber G she noticed marked on today’s date, on her friend’s calendar).
And Rose wants her to know. She wants her to know that they will stay, that they’ll be there by her side all night and that she doesn’t have to worry about anything; but she can’t say that, of course, or Blanche will just be embarrassed, possibly even angry, and they’ll end up sleeping each in her own room and she’ll wake up alone anyway. No – there has to be another way to let her know, to promise that they’ll still be there when she wakes up, tomorrow, without really saying it.
As luck would have it, the perfect idea occurred to her at just the right time.
“Well, thank you honey,” Blanche half-laughs, with the beautiful, unguarded smile she gets whenever she’s genuinely surprised. “It was very sweet of you.”
She smiles back. It wasn’t really a lie, after all, she thinks. She was in the mood to kiss Blanche’s cheek; she always is, just like she’s always in the mood to kiss Dorothy. She loved lingering so close to her, her skin soft under her lips, and she’d love for them all to cuddle under the covers like they clearly all want, and she’d love to wake the both of them tomorrow with morning kisses and make them giggle and…
Oh, she can’t say that either, can she? Not yet.
Instead she makes herself comfortable on Dorothy’s mattress, content in the closeness. Dorothy switches the light off, they all say goodnight, and Rose closes her eyes, slowly giving herself in to the embrace of sleep.
At least, until…
“What about you, Dorothy?”
There’s a long moment of silence. Rose re-opens her eyes; it’s dark, but she can more-or-less see Dorothy balancing on her forearm, staring down at Blanche in confusion. “What about me?”
“Well, aren’t you going to give me a kiss?,” Blanche asks with an innocent pout.
It is very dark, so it’s probably just an impression, but Rose feels like she can see a blaze of colour shine on Dorothy’s face. “What are you talking about?”
“Rose gave me one!”
“So what?”
“So why didn’t you? Come on, Dorothy, just one!,” Blanche pleads, sticking out her cheek in preparation.
Dorothy hesitates for a bit… but she can’t resist for too long, big sweetheart that she is, and in fact it only takes a few moments for her to cave. “Oh, alright,” she mumbles, bending down to place the gentlest kiss right next to Blanche’s brilliant smile. “Can we go to sleep now?”
“Sure, honey! Goodnight, girls.”
“Hmm, goodnight.”
“Goodnight,” she closes the circle resting her head back on Dorothy’s pillow. It’s no wonder that Blanche chose her bed to sleep in; Dorothy’s perfume alone is so soothing, in barely a couple of minutes Rose can already feel herself slip away into a peaceful night.
Right before she falls asleep, she thinks that she’ll have to wait a long time until her girls are really able to ask for support when they need it – but maybe, just maybe, the moment when she’ll get to give them all the kisses she wants is closer than it seems.
[Send me a Ship and a Number and I will Write a Kiss]
#these were so much fun!!#i didn't intentionally plan for rose to be the recipient in one and blanche in the other. it just happened#but now i'd love to write one where *dorothy* is on the receiving end. she deserves tons and tons of kisses!!!#the first one is probably not the most original idea but it just begged me to write it at some point and this was the perfect chance#the second one gave me a lot more trouble because i kept thinking of options but none of them really *convinced* me#until this one hit me out of the blue while i was taking a shower (proved best method to come up with ideas right after taking a walk)#and here we are! i really hope you like them!!#it's been a while since i reblogged this ask game but if anyone reads these and wants to send me another prompt#i'd love to try my hand at it#the golden girls#golden wives#writing#ask game

Sick Lux: Hi! I’m the one who suggested sick Lux and I’m happy you like it! May I suggest more ideas?
After Lux is settle and Optimus had to sink in that he’s a Sire (and the horrible realization that he pretty much banished his pregnant ex, even though he didn’t know), he and Megatron have a chance to…simply talk things out. Perhaps Lux has allowed Megatron have a more clearer head and not filled by blind anger so he listens.
Words are exchanged, regrets are shared, and apologies are made on both ends. Maybe by the end Optimus & Megatron had come to an agreement. One that ends their conflict and for Lux to be both in their lives without conflict. Whether they’ll remain awkward friends who wants best for their daughter or getting back together is unknown but it’s a good start
So, what do you think?
Sorry, meant to reply earlier when I got the ask, but I've been procrastinating on about everything today, so it took a while
But anyways, I hadn't really thought that far in my own head, only really getting to Megatron's attitude when he first gets to Iacon, basically being on edge and ready to bolt with Lux the second things might go south or he's at risk of losing her, and Optimus probably realizing that he's acting weird and trying not to aggravate him more
I'm also thinking that Megatron doesn't immediately tell Optimus the full story on Lux, just that there's a sparkling there that needs help and hoping that's enough, dodging the question of why there's a sparkling there in the first place. It does eventually come out that she's theirs though, maybe through Starscream thinking Megatron already told Optimus, I'm not sure
I mean, she does look like a blue D-16 which is gonna raise suspicions, but the fact that she's specifically Optimus' isn't immediately found out (there's a good number of blue Decepticons anyways)
But as for what you're saying here, they probably would have a talk about this whole situation at some point, especially after Optimus learns Lux is his (it might be what causes this conversation even, or at least an argument preceding it), with Megatron eventually admitting that he's terrified Optimus will take her away from him
I don't know if the story would end with their feud being declared over. I mean, it would make logical sense honestly, since the Decepticons coming back to Iacon permanently would solve a lot of the problems this situation brought up, like the lack of necessary medical equipment for the Decepticons (they haven't done enough bad yet), or the problem of Lux spending time with both her creators
Maybe it just ends with them agreeing to try and work out an agreement, but we don't see where it goes from there, like what happens with the Decepticons? Which I'm realizing is what you said, them making an agreement. I just misinterpreted it as them officially declaring the war over and stuff. The end would just be like them planning on doing so
So yeah, I do like it. Gives an actual end to this story, which knowing me, I was probably never going to have one in my head anyways (and it's probably why I'll never get around to finishing Firestorm tbh), so hell yeah
#honestly this makes me want to write the fic even more now#but I should do my schoolwork instead today honestly even if I probably will procrastinate that again too#but you know it's more tangible now#but yay more talking with people about ideas#I think I might settle with the disease being a weaker form of cosmic rust tbh since I ain't got else#I think I'm gonna say that it can and maybe does affect Megatron too#but due to his size and heavy plating he's not going to need more than some armor and a little internal replacing#but for a small sparkling like Lux it's going to eat through her fragile systems if not treated soon#maybe her T-cog even gets damaged and needs fixing which causes momentary conflict#since both Optimus and Megatron have had very particular experiences with losing their cogs#unlike Lux who's never had hers taken#but it's not a thing for long just momentary and maybe thoughts on it#anyways yeah#transformers one#transformers oc#tf lux#megatron#optimus prime#fanfiction#story ideas#answers

So I Watched Bucchigiri?!... (My Review)
(Before you proceed, I'll assume you watched the show but honestly you can still read it since i will limit the spoilers for those who want to watch the show)
1.First Impression/Why did i Watched it?
Youtube Ad victim (yes you read that right), the clip showing a mixture of throwing hands and humour looked interesting and fun.

(this crunchyroll ad above) IM NOT GONNA LIE, I 100% WATCHED THIS SHOW BECAUSE OF OUTA TAHIDE'S FINE ASS IN THE AD (CLICKBAIT VICTIM).
2. Story (5/10)
Laconic: A Red Aladdin style genie demon have a 300 year old beef with his blue boyfriend so now a lame loser high schooler maxs his stats and have to fight but dont get it twisted CORN ADDICITON WILL PREVAIL!
ehhh... Trashcan come to the podium. The biggest issue of this show are the plot points & certain characters motivations/personalities (ehum, Arajin. Ehum, Mahoro). Some are gear grinding when they appeared on screen. I'm not gonna dig too deep but the story sounds good on paper but when you add the unsufferabble MC, everything falls down the drains (Matakara should have been the MC).

I understand this is supposed to be a funny show but some tropes fall flat and are aggravating at best. Honestly Arajin & Mahoro are eating up most of the points for this categorie (get the lame simpery and mincest out of here). Other characters and the storyline as a whole did their thing regardless of the cliché they carried BUT ITS HARD LOOKING PAST THE BAD.
3. Characters (9/10) (THE BEST PART)

Before diving deeper, Bucchigiri is a mid show with AMAZING & GREATLY DESIGNED CHARACTERS. Aside from my thirst for Outa, I've looked up other characters before watching the show anf their designs are really good (MAPPA delivered). Which is why i'm disappointed to see them mishandled like that.
Also y'all couldnt have another female character to balance out Mahoro? (please omfg)
3.5. Simplified Characters Impresssions

MATAKARA(LEFT): Welcome back Suzaku Kururugi! ARAJIN (RIGHT): Walking Trashcan, Weirdo Simp from the deepest part of the abyss & Certified Mean Girl.

KOMAO (LEFT): My Ray of Sunshine (Is that a skirt and some dreads? SLAY!) ZABU (RIGHT): Min Yoongi (Suga)


MARITO: Mahito (JJK) + Boutarou the Pirate (Golden Kamuy) + The Pink haired dude from Sk8 the Infinity. OUTA: Some tanning slipped into the Manwha Male algorithm.
THEM TOGETHER : 2025 MatchaBlossom (sprinkle some crack over it)


JABASHIRI (RIGHT): So this is where Zabuza went after dying... Justified Hater of the MC (i stan with him) btw bro a hard head makes a soft ass... HAGURE (LEFT): Under heavy protection, Jabishiri should have beat you up for how you did him during the fighting tournament. I Knew you couldnt fight but i love you anyway... THEY ARE MY FAVOURITE DUO I CANT LIE (or ship i guess).


ARAJIN'S MOM (LEFT): Emotional Wincest Boy Mom MAHORO (RIGHT): That one sided bro/sis wincest in anime. GOING TO HELL IN A CASKET.


I'm not gonna say more.... (Nanami your boy is tweaking)


CAT DUDE (LEFT): Kiba Inuzuka's arch nemesis + Ouran High School Host Club KEN (RIGHT): Tekken/Street Fighter Character + King of Rule34


Well...

4. Watching Experience (5/10)
Yall know i will never complain about a 12 episodes anime (shout out to GANGSTA) but this serie would have benifited from more episodes with the story it was trying to go for. Because it really gave EASILY FORGIVEN and lets all dance around the campfire (wait arent yall opposite gangs or we dropping it and merging together?!.)
Like ive said the MC slowed down the watching experience because i had to actually leave and come back to later due to being so pissed off.
5. Do I Recommend?
As crazy as it sounds, i do recommend it. the 12 episodes will not take too much of your time and these characters a worthy of being love and appriciated to the fullest (the fanart is kinda dry).
In a way this series is a win for me regardless my complaints because the fights are cool as hell and its really showed me how to make great characters regardless the setting. I can see how this show could be a banger to others and it definetly can.
FINAL REVIEW (5/10)

Thanks for Coming to my TED Talk!

Here are the typed numbered points, final thoughts at the end DISCLAIMER: I used a Sonic ref page from GAMING 2019 to help with mapping and finding out what features match up with the guide lines. I think this is perfectly okay to do for LEARNING purposes like this one.
1. His hair is based off of fresh hair growing after a shave. The Awkward Phase™ 2. I'm terrible with front view shoes >.< 3. Ear tufts! 4. Marks are just slanted rectangles. 5. I will avoid drawing more hands than needed LMAO 6. Based off of a standard sneaker design. 7. Fluffy tail! 8. (Dot) Points of interest. 9. I like the tuft going back this far. 10. Faded and non-faded symbol of Phenthoma's(Fen-tohm-ah) lab. 11. Phenthoma lab symbol on the back of glove. Just the left glove. 12. Phenthoma is a character that is no longer living. A vital part of Elliot's past. We hate her. >:( 13. A design will be here in time! 14. In the short 30 min. that I have been desigining and mapping, I've already figured out how the torso is shaped. If you struggle, I highly rec mapping the characters. EXTENDED: I was still on the first pose when I did this and this genuinely helped me visualize where to put what parts where. 15. Triangles and squares are your best friends! 16. I HATE this angle!! 17. Anything to avoid hands 💅 18. In the mapping pic, you can see I'm much more comfy without too many shapes. EXTENDED: By this time, I already knew how to make the torso and how to position the arms and tuft. The head and body are very much oddly proportional. I believe the reason why we believe it's not is because of how large Sonic and others' quills are because Amy doesn't really have this issue. It works though and I wouldn't have the characters any other way. 19. I wanted to convey that Elliot is VERY fluffy hence the tufts of fur everywhere. EXTENDED: I know this sounds obvious, but I based Elliot off of those giant fluffy wolves that I just wanna hug. Elliot could easily be a pillow for anyone with all his fluff. He is definitely the type to look bigger when dry, but the second he is dunked in water, he looks like a very skinny wet rat. Think of those fluffy cats that look big but shrink SO MUCH when they get a bath LMAO 20. I now know my problem angles, but also how to use non-Sonic ref pics for bigger and better pieces! :D Now, my final thoughts: This was incredibly helpful! I never was really good with Sonic anatomy and I always struggled with it. I love how I was able to find my problem areas and improve on them in such a short amount of time. I want to do bigger pieces with Elliot, but at the moment, I have no plans on writing anything around this character other than the needed empty spots in the lore(THE LORE!!!). Such as Phentoma's full story and how Dean, Elliot's first love, died by Phen's hands. If there is any interest in this then I can answer some questions about the story. Though, warning, Elliot might be a very boring character. Here's some tidbits: He doesn't have the rage of someone who has lost a lot, even though he has, indeed, lost a lot. He's let it go with time. He values maturity in approaching situations with understanding instead of violence or raising his voice. He doesn't like to fight even though he is more than capable. He collects silly things and is hard to aggravate. He's kind and caring, even to those he knows have hurt him or others. He's just a project that was successful and that cost him everything. He hates stargazing, but loves to see the stars in people's eyes when they speak about something they're passionate about. He doesn't mind if his body is submerged in water, but he will not submerge his head. I think that's enough droning on. Even though there's more, I feel like this post is long and intimidating enough to read. Intimidating in the sense of just how much there is. Anyway, please tell me about your Sonic ocs if you have them! I LOVE to learn about other's ocs and how many cool concepts there are!

I also want to start and IF, im already a writer on wattpad and I want to expand my horizons but I have absolutely no clue about coding and stuff
Is it difficult to code?
That is awesome and wonderful! I highly encourage you to take the plunge and try it out. I would not say coding is difficult, but it's not exactly easy either. You're literally learning a new language depending on how deep into it you go. For me, the way I did it was to learn, say, basic phrases ("Where is your bathroom," or "I'd like a glass of water") and grammar for this language. I'm not fluent, but I'm getting by. You don't have to have it mastered before you start.
For a long-winded breakdown, see below!
I knew absolutely zero code when I started this out. I just knew I wanted to do it so badly. There are good resources online to help you as well, especially questions on forums because we are not the only newbies in this with questions. I find the Twine cookbook thing to be a bit of a nightmare to understand, lol. I am more a type of person that needs to see something in action or do something to truly get it. I cannot just read something and understand it at all.
Two things I did that helped me a lot was to start a Twine project and enter all the code I learned into it and I also started a story to test it all out. I made notes to myself in these to remind me of what they do and how they work as well. I still have those and use them when I learn new things or if I find a new macro that I want to use.
If the Twine documents don't work for you, do a simple internet search for what you need. I started to learn the Harlowe code first, and I honestly found that more difficult than Sugarcube. As a side note, when I started this, I didn't even know that there were multiple languages that Twine could use! When you find a guide or a forum post that is useful, save it! Copy/Paste it or bookmark it. Put the code in Twine and test it right away. You'll find that it all starts making more sense to see it in action.
I can't tell you how many times I've Googled "Twine Sugarcube *insert code issue or desired outcome.*"
I also recommend finding a free coding class just to familiarize yourself with the basic function of html. I did one on codeacademy.com. There's also youtube videos out there from people who really know what they're doing.
It's not all sunshine and rainbows, so go into it knowing you are going to have really aggravating moments. I had times where I was trying so hard to understand this stuff that ended in a few tears of frustration. I'm a person who believes they can learn to do anything, but it takes pushing through those frustrating moments to get there. Our brains sometimes literally try to get us to quit stuff when it gets hard - we are wired to take the easy way out and when it's not easy, the brain is like - THIS IS PAIN. But I feel that if you push against that anyway, you'll get over that wall and things will start falling into place.
Sorry for rambling and I hope this helps you in some way, Anon! ^_^
I could go on, but for your sake, I'll stop there lol. If you have any other questions, please feel free to drop them in!

South Side Story
Shameless Fanfiction
Desna Hills has come living in the Southside of Chicago four years before. Taken in by Kev and V, Desna is close friends with the Gallaghers. Let's see how this Southside story unfolds.
MASTERLIST
《 Previous - Next 》
CHAPTER 21
V's bachelorette party went very well. Desna went with her and Fiona to a night club. They had danced, drank and laughed.
Desna loved when V and Fiona brought her with them. She felt older. An adoult. And for some reason she even felt prettier and more confident.
They walked back home, but since the day after V and Kev would have gotten married, Desna and V would have slept to the Gallaghers, to not let Kev see the bride.
When they got inside the house, no one was at home. Carl was with Lip at the Alibi, for Kev's bachelor party. For what Desna remembered, Ian was at Kesh's house, for their date. And Debbie and Liam were at Sheila's, so that they wouldn't spend the night alone.
"V," Fiona said to her friend, "You sleep with me? Desna can sleep in Debbie's room," V agreed as she walked up the stairs, "That's fine by me. Des?"
"Sure," she answered following the other two upstairs. It didn't take long for Desna to fall asleep. By the time she had taken her dress off and her face hitting the pillow, she fell in a deep sleep. She never woke up. And her sleep had been dreamless, but peaceful anyway.
When she woke up, the next morning, Desna could hear some faint voices from downstairs, but she could not understand what they were saying. She got up, looking around. She needed something to cover herself. She had forgotten her pijamas.
When she opened the door, to look in the corridor, she noticed Lip getting out of his room. She smiled seeing him. He clearly got an hungover. But even in his conditions, ge had noticed her on the door.
"I've really drank too much," he said with a smirk, eyeing her from head to toe. Clearly liking see her wearing only her bra and panties.
Desna giggled as she walked towards him, with crossed arms. "I defenately can say that."
Lip's eyebrows rose, "That bad?"
Desna touched his forehead, "You tell me, Pil," he chuckled. Someone had wrote his name backwards on his forehead. He didn't even washed it away the night before. He must have been wasted.
"And what are you doing here?" He asked taking another good look at her, "Seducing me?"
She laughed, "I was hoping more on a shirt," Desna said.
"How cruel," he said, "Wait here," Desna looked at him as he get back in his room. Lip didn't take long before getting back with one of his shirts.
"Thank you," she said happily, but he took it out of her reach. "Can I have a kiss first?" He smirked. And even if she would have liked to tease him a bit, Desna really wanted to kiss him. So with a smile, she circled his neck with her arms, before crushing her lips to his. She heard Lip smirk against her, before hugging her waist, deepening the kiss. Desna's fingers went to his hair, loving the way Lip kissed her.
"I'm maid of honor and I don't know you had a brother," Fiona's voice got Desna attention, making her break the kiss.
"What is it?" Asked Lip with a frown, but Desna shushed him.
"There's a reason for that," she heard Kev. Desna got closer to the stairs.
"He bust out of preason?" Fiona asked.
"Last night," Kev answered.
"Oh shit," Desna muttered. Lip got more confused.
"What was he in for?" Fiona was asking sitting on the couch, with a cup of coffee in her hand. Desna could already see the distress on V's face as she paced the livingroom wearing only her bra and underwear.
"Aggravated assault, larceny and arson," V answered angrily.
"Arson?" Lip asked from behind Desna, as they made their way down the stairs, "Who you talking about?"
"V's brother," Desna answered, and then she walked to the chair to sit down.
"Oh, is that, like a sibling brother, or a black-guy brother?" Lip asked confused, making Desna glare at him.
"Remember the fire at Curves in the mall?" V started to say, putting her clothes back on, "That was him," Lip turned to Desna, that nodded. She still remembered that day. It had been hell.
"He loves setting fire to things," V kept explaining, "And he hates women. It was the perfect storm," Fi had wide eyes, while Lip had lit up a cigarette, walking towards where Desna was, taking a sit on the arm of the chair she was sit on.
"He's nuts." Kev exclaimed and Desna did not feel to disagree. He was not a presence she felt very comfortable with, "Serious, he's nuts. He came at me. I had to fight my ass off."
Desna's eyes widened, "You okay?"
"Yes, babe," Kev answered, before keep telling his story. "Then one time I'm having a brew, he came up to me; all: 'Ass cunt fuck!' on me."
Fiona frowned, "Is he retarded?"
"He's got Tourette," answered Desna.
"Yeah, coupled with bipolar disorder and drinking problem," V added, "He's a shrink's wet dream."
Desna and Lip shared a look.
"What do we do now?" Desna asked turning to V.
"Kick his ass back to prison," exclaimed the woman, "You know this, Des. If there's one person you can always count on to fuck things up, it's Marty." Desna nodded her head, silently. "I'm going to talk to him," she said, gesturing to Kev to follow her.
"I'm coming too." Fiona said standing up.
"What do I do?" Desna asked.
"You stay here," V said as they walked towards the door. "He's far too agitated."
"Alright," Desna muttered, looking at the door closing. Then she stood up.
"Is it bad?" Asked Lip with brow raised as he blew out some smoke.
Desna shrugged her shoulders, "I wouldn't say 'bad', but surely is an inconvenience."
V wanted nothing but to spend a good daw for her wedding, and she really didn't want anything to ruin it. But Marty could be really stubborn and since he had broke out of preason they rather had to convince him to turn himself in, or call the police. And everything before that afternoon.
"Hey," Lip said, taking her hand so that she could look at him, "It's going to be fine," he assured her, his hands on her hips, "And we are going to have so much fun tonight."
She let out a little giggle. She barely could wait for Lip to see her dress.
"Yes?" He asked pulling her close to give her neck a quick kiss.
"Yes," she answered pulling back, "But go take a shower. I really can't take you seriously with 'Pil' on your forehead."
He chuckled, his lips pecked hers, "Alright. Eat something." She nodded as he walked towards the stairs. Then Desna went to the kitchen to eat some cereal with a cup of milk. In the mean time both Ian and Carl had woken up.
"Hello, gorgeous," said Carl, still wearing the clothes from the days before.
"Hello, Carl," she answered pushing the pack of cereal to him. "Did you have fun yesterday?"
He nodded, "There were strippers." Desna nodded, "I really don't wanna know," then she got up to get closer to Ian.
"What are you doing here?" She asked on a whisper, "I thought you had a date."
Ian looked at her, after making sure that his brother was busy with something else.
"It was too strange," he muttered, "In his room. His and his wife's room. And with all the pictures of their sons."
"That's awkward," Desna could not find it difficoult to believe thst Ian had decided to ran away. "What are you planning on doing now?"
Ian shook his head, "I don't know." Desna smiled affectionstely, before going on her tiptoes, to kiss Ian on the cheek.
"You'll figure it out," she said as he nodded looking at her, "And if you think about calling things off, you're handsome, I'm sure all the boys in Chicago wants to have their way with you."
Ian let out a chuckle before kissing her temple.
After that, Desna decided to go upstairs to wash and change herself. When she reached the top, she saw Lip in his room. He was wearing only his jeans and he was drying his hsir with a towel.
"You like what you see?" He asked noticing her on the door frame.
"You know I like it," Lip chuckled, looking at her. "I like it too."
Desna shook her head, before heading back to the bathroom. Since they decided to get back at their situationship, Desna could feel that there was something different between them. But she really did not want to ask anything. She wanted to enjoy Lip's attentions. Lip became restless everytime she had tried to ask what he felt for her, so she decided to wait.
After having washed up, she went back to Debbie's room to take her belongings. But when she entered, her eyes went to her phone. She had recieved a message. Curiously she took her phone in her hand, and opened the notification.
Hi.
It said only that. Desna looked up at the number, but it was written 'Unknown'. Who could that be?
"Des, you want my pants, so you don't have to put yesterday dress on?" Lip had entered, making her turn to the door. "You okey?" He asked with a frown. He was too intelligent to miss anything.
"Just a message," she said. And that seemed to get him curious as he got close.
"From who?"
"It's unknown," she answered with a shrug of her shoulders, heanding the phone to him, "Probably they got the wrong number."
He read the message, before frown again, "Could have said more."
"Or not," she said taking the phone back, "I really don't want a dirty text from a stranger."
That made him chuckle, "And from me?"
She pushed him playfully, "Stop it," she sid with a laugh, "I want to go see if V and Kev need help with Marty."
He nodded his head, "Cool," he said, "Let's go."
After she got ready, pulling some of Lip's clothes on, Desna was ready to go out. Lip went with her as he promised and Carl had decided to go with them. But when they arrived at Desna's house, they caught Fiona, V and Kev holding a ladder, where Debbie had climbed to look inside the house.
"Call the cops on my own brother?" V was saying, "It's always like this. Nobody can be center of attention. It's always gotta be about him," then she yelled, "You should be in a nuthouse!"
"What's going on?" Lip asked with a frown.
"Veronica's brother is threatening to burn the place down," Fiona expalined to them.
"What?" Exclaimed Desna.
"Cool," said Carl from in front of her, that decided to ignore him.
"He's saying that he's gonna light thr dress and the shit-sack house on fire," Debbie said from above them.
"Oh shit," Desna muttered, sharing a look with V and Kev.
"What a shit-sack?" Debbie asked with a frown.

Do you know if there is a good way to follow dick/babs ship tags (besides blocking #anti dickbabs) without getting the really nasty dick/babs (and just babs in general) hate? Recently tumblr has been suggesting some really unpleasant posts, which, fine, I can just scroll past, but I was wondering if you had any suggestions. I really don't want to block dick/kory because even though it's not my ship, some of their stuff is really cute and if it's quality art/stories/posts I like to see it too.
Anyways, I love your posts!
I know exactly what you're talking about, anon. :/ Pretty much the only thing I've found is to just start blocking people who put that crap in the tags and it helps a lot! You'll still see the cute Dick/Kory stuff from the cool fans (I'm lucky that I have a handful of very sweet fans I follow on my dash), but you won't see so much of those posts that tear down Dick/Babs just to prop Dick/Kory up. I know it can sometimes feel kind of defeatist to start blocking people or tags, just because a few bad actors ruin the fun for you, but sometimes you gotta ask yourself if it's really worth the aggravation of seeing the nasty comments just to see the occasional cute thing? It doesn't have to be forever, you can block a person or a tag just when you're feeling particularly unwilling to deal with people who can't stay in their lane or who have to tear down something else to build up their thing. Take care of yourself first, find what makes you happy first, even if you're a big person who can pull up their big person undies and just scroll past it, sometimes you want a gentler experience and that's okay. Just block "anti dickbabs" and block anyone who doesn't tag their posts with that and it's okay if you don't see everything for awhile as you settle down. Those cute stories/art/posts will still be there when you're feeling up to navigating the rougher waters! (I will say I've been struggling with this as well, because I'm a big girl who knows where her scroll button is, people have to be allowed their space to like/dislike things and express that as they please, etc., but sometimes it's hard to not feel resentful that it's so constantly being put into the tags that should be a pleasant experience for our ship, it's so hard not to let that behavior bleed over into being frustrated at other ships, when I know it's just a few bad actors, but also like. It's just so completely antithetical to what I'm looking for--I just am not going to be swayed by someone telling me, as I've seen, that I'm wrong for shipping Dick/Babs, but I would be potentially swayed by someone telling me what they liked about their ship. You know, if my nerves weren't currently feeling scraped raw.) (I hope it's clear that this is not aimed at all other shippers of Dick/Kory or any other ship, not even just those that express frustration about DickBabs, but a very specific sub-set of those who feel determined to barge into other lanes about it for other fans.) And, if you're like me, every time tumblr recommends something nasty to you, take that energy and make a cute Dick/Babs post and put it in the tag for me and others to see! You'll feel so much better for it!
