Announcing August Walker Appreciation Day!

Unlike the show, we appreciate both of the youngest Walker siblings on this blog. And if you've been keeping up with the calendar, you know that that means that March 8th is August Walker Appreciation Day!

From his earliest appearance as a peacekeeper in the family to his recent rebellious streak, August has given us a lot of great content and that's worth appreciating. So on that day, this blog will be a hub for all August appreciation and positivity. I'll be reblogging old posts and making new ones about the youngest member of the Walker clan. I'll also be putting up some polls and reblog games for easy participation. If anyone wishes to create something of their own, please use the tag #august walker day so I can find your post and reblog it here. If you want to make sure I see your post, you're more than welcome to tag me or DM me.

Viking-Raider Holiday Fics!

I know it's the day before Halloween XD However, I've started work on my Christmas story. This story has been bubbling in my mind for a couple weeks, esp after @winter2112rose and I spoke about holiday fics and she gave me such a great idea for it. I've also finally gotten some energy to write after just being drained by life.

I'm also contemplating a Thanksgiving holiday fic. I know, Henry being a Brit, he doesn't typically celebrate the holiday. Though, he did once or twice in the past for funnies, because Kal's an American Akita. (Silly Boy) I thought of doing it for one of his American characters!

Who do you think I should do it for?

(Hit a milestone and yes I feel slightly disingenuous with this celebration considering a good chunk of my followers are probably inactive now, but yknow what…I want a reason to do this so we’re just gonna go with it)

Time for some…Character pairings!

Send an ask with a brief description of you; such as your personality, likes, dislikes, any interesting facts about you, love language, pet peeves etc. (no need for physical descriptions) and I’ll pair you with a Pedro character!

My ask box will be open for 24 hours for these until 8:00am BST on 19th Oct. Anon is on, but if you send on anon please sign off with an emoji or nickname or something.

Thank you to my lovely friends & followers for putting up with me, forever grateful & so glad to still be on here and in this community.

Why I love August Walker

As a recipient of one of the first character appreciation days I ever did, it should surprise no one that August Walker is one of my favorite characters. While I did make a post at the time talking about what I loved about him, it's been a year since then and I thought it was worth making another post to examine what I still love about him along with everything that's changed since then.

While I started watching Walker from the premiere for Jared, it was the whole cast of characters that kept me around and August was one of the main draws. Being not too far away from my teen years at the time, I saw a bit of myself in the quiet, awkward teen with people pleasing tendencies. Then, as he grew into someone more opinionated, I only found myself more fascinated with his character.

During the hiatus, I didn't find myself bored with his character. Despite the lack of new content, I still found myself theorizing and speculating on the possibilities that lied in his future, to season 4 and far beyond into the post-show era. All of that is a long way to say that one of the things that keeps me coming back to August is the sheer amount of potential he has as a character. There's so much room for him to grow (in more ways than one) and that his him living in my head rent-free.

Theorizing fandom brain aside, I think one of the things I love most about August is that, beneath his questionable choices and teenage angst, he's a boy with a good heart. I have to give credit to Kale Culley for letting that shine through his character even in the midst of his "ticking time bomb" arc in season 3. At his core, August is a good person. He wants to make friends. He welcomes Sadie into his life with open arms despite their rocky start. He takes accountability for his mistakes and strives to make up for them. And, above all, he wants his family to be proud of him. While that core aspect of his character may have been buried for a while, it was always there, and I can't wait to see where that takes him as he gets ready to navigate adulthood in the future.

To sum this up, here's a quick list of things I love about August:

A sweetheart

Adorable

Spitting image of his father

Kale Culley

Cares for people and animals

Eager to please

Just wants to be Good

And also maybe noticed for it

Just a good guy

TL;DR:

I love August Walker

Can we talk about Bonham's Devastation over not knowing what will happen to Abby to his Boys to his Grandkids given how not only had Denise arrested him for Marv's murder Boham was helpless as he had to watch his family lose the roof over their heads and with him locked up Bonham can't do anything for them and he must have been so worried about what will happen to his beloved family

Re-read White Wedding and really enjoyed it (its probably my fav fic of yours) but i was wondering … 👉👈 what if your answer to him at the end was ‘no’? What would he do? 😳

Thank you so much, darling 🖤 It fills my heart with joy to hear that you love that story.

I don’t think the August in this story is capable of taking a no for an answer. He came to claim what he sees as his on her wedding day so he was fully ready to take her back with him regardless.

Despite our best efforts, the names on our list are only those who had the privilege of recognition, the fortune of discovery, or the extraordinary courage to leave indelible proof of their true selves for us to mourn. So many unknown and uncounted people remain that even years from now we will learn the names of people in our community who died this year without the recognition they deserved.

The Vow 2

Warnings: non/dubcon, arranged marriage, and other dark elements. My username actually says you never asked for any of this.

My warnings are not exhaustive but be aware this is a dark fic and may include potentially triggering topics. Please use your common sense when consuming content. I am not responsible for your decisions.

Character: mob!August Walker

Summary: your father’s murder leaves you in the hands of a dangerous man.

As usual, I would appreciate any and all feedback. I’m happy to once more go on this adventure with all of you! Thank you in advance for your comments and for reblogging ❤️

The man is quiet. The villain. The boss. The groom. Your... husband. 

The vows were what you would find in a script. Nothing special. Just standard. Just going through the motions. And when he lifted the veil, his kiss was just as prescribed. That’s it. Your life is over and his is just beginning. 

Your hand is in his as he guides you from the hall. He takes you between the pews and out the tall doors. A shower of petals rain down on you as you come out into the sunlight. There’s a car waiting. The people around you are like actors on a screen. It’s all fake. This isn’t a happy day, this is business. 

The car door shuts on the other side of him and you’re closed in with this stranger. The stranger you’ll spend the rest of your life with. You know his name and his bad deeds, but nothing else. 

You fold your hands over the layers of the full skirt. He shifts as he pulls a fold of tulle from beneath him. You watch his large hand and tremble. 

“Sorry,” you breath and snatch the skirt so that it can’t overflow onto his lap. 

He catches your hand and you freeze. You lock up, bones aching, muscles clenched. He tugs on you. You let him draw you closer as you stare at his steely grip. He brings his other hand over to pet your knuckles. The softness of his touch makes you tingle. 

“You’re scared,” he states. It isn’t a question. He knows. “If you are loyal, you don’t need to be.” 

You nod, “yes, sir.” 

He huffs through his nose, “I am your husband.” 

You close your eyes and tempo your heartbeat, “what should I call you?” 

“You know my name.” 

“Walker.” 

“August,” he insists upon his first name. “Maybe one day, you will have something softer to call me.” 

“Maybe,” you shiver and he squeezes your hand. 

“Your father wrote his own fate, you will write yours,” he raises your hand and lays a kiss on the back of it. “It doesn’t need to be the same.” 

You stare ahead. You can’t let yourself feel or you will feel everything. The fear, the grief, and even, the anger. Once they boil over, you will be lost. 

“I understand, August.” 

Another heavy exhale. 

“You will not act so cold in front of my men.” He takes your hand and forces your fingers open. “You will touch me with kindness.” He puts your palm to his cheek and leads you to cradle his face. His stubble pokes at your delicate gloves. “You will do so without my order. You will behave as a wife, so far as they are concerned. Let your father’s defiance die with him.” 

“I will not resist,” you tell him as much as yourself. 

“Goddamnit, look at me,” he says. 

You turn to look him in the face. The anger you expect is absent. He watches you placidly. Your fingers twitch and he leans into your touch. He takes your other hand and forces you to twist toward him. He leans in and before you can think, his lips are on yours. 

It is different than at the altar. Not just a peck, more. His lips part and his tongue flicks out along yours. He hums and you open your mouth. His hand creeps up the back of your neck and he locks you against him. His tongue invades your mouth and you squeak. 

He draws away and his eyes narrow, “better.” You’re unsure if he means it was better than before or that you need to do better.  

He lets you go and sits back against the seat. He closes his eyes as he pushes his shoulders wide. His feet are planted as he lingers in unspoken thought. You look at the driver then out the window. You turn back to him. 

You touch his sleeve and shimmy closer. He hums again. The tone assures you that you aren’t unwelcome. Play your part, fulfill your vow. That is all that needs to be done.  

This is more than you, there is your mother, and others beyond that. Those that were once loyal to your father. Those you called friends and family. Those who now walk the same tightrope. Those that have already fallen. 

The car stops. A flicker of panic strikes in your chest. The door opens from outside and he pulls you out with him. You keep one hand on your skirt and the other on his arm. He marches ahead. 

You enter the large building and wait in some room. He remains silent, pensive. You’re summoned and after a time. He fixes your arm to hook through his as you stand before the large doors. 

“Head up,” he girds before you enter. 

They watch you, just as before. You can hear them this time, whispering. You don’t look anywhere but ahead of you. He nods at the more notable guests. You will not doubt be met again with those faces through the night. 

He puts you ahead of him to climb onto the platform where the bride and groom’s table stands. He follows closely. He pulls a chair out but puts his hand to your back so you cannot sit. He sidles behind you. Instead, he sits with you, lifting you into his lap. 

You quiver again. Humiliation surges through you. This is his show of victory. He boasting. No, you will not just be beside him, you are his.
