#but he was seen. and thats all Aaron wanted his whole life--really

[captain-sunshine-11]

"nobody will pull him out of it, nobody is telling him how to make it stop"

What if someone did. What if a counselor noticed and pulled Aaron aside to talk to him. Maybe it ended in nothing and Aaron being more pissed than before--but what if it helped.

It probably wouldn't get him clean right off the bat, hell he probably be resistant to the idea, but someone noticed. It doesn't even have to be a counselor, just a teacher. Someone to provide a safe space. Make him feel a little less alone. Only then would we have seen a less bitter Adult Aaron--unless everything went wrong again, of course :)

thinking about teenage aaron minyard having to sit through all those anti smoking anti drugs talks and presentations that all centre around "drugs will ruin your life! drugs will hurt you permanently and take away your future!" and he knows, he knows all of it, he's heard it a thousand times, hell, he's seen it up close. he knows he's addicted. he knows how bad it is for him. but nobody will pull him out of it, nobody is telling him how to make it stop. thinking about how isolating aaron's whole childhood would've been, how angry he was as an adult looking back and realising that nobody tried to help him. that he was thirteen years old and everybody abandoned him.

Spencer Reid x Reader

Synopsis; Where the team discusses the question ‘do you kiss after head’, you find out Spencer has too little experience to answer the question so you help him out

Warnings; smut, oral (male receiving), sub!spencer, praise, slight degradation 

a/n; LMAO im so sorry for disappearing again life has been actually kicking my ass but anyways lately i’ve been thinking about subby early season spence so here we go,, hope you enjoy!

***

Another Friday night and the team was out bar crawling after an easy case. But this time all members were there as it reached 11pm which was rare. Usually Hotch and JJ would have been home by 10:30 and Spencer wouldn’t have been there at all. But there was something light in the air which had all parties concerned sitting packed in a booth, laughing after each sip of their drinks. 

Since it wasn’t your first rodeo together you knew how the night went. It started off with Rossi offering to buy the first few rounds, always whiskey but he made an exception for Penelope. Then again who would deny her anything. 

Once the drinks were flowing and lips got a little loose, the questions would start popping in at the top of your heads. However these were not your run of the mill, ‘hows so and so doing?’ ‘done your taxes yet?’ oh no. The name of the game was discuss where you would all think of a question which would help you dig just a tiny bit deeper into your coworkers sex lives. 

Maybe if you were all sober then you’d avoid thinking of each other in such positions, pun intended, yet in this state your prying minds were open and your stomachs were ready to grow abs from bending over in laughter. 

You raised the margarita glass up clinking it with a fork to get the tables attention. Everyone including Aaron had a smile on their face, ready to hear the intrusive question for the night. 

“Ok my fellow profilers, doctor, and tech genius,” you added pointing at Spencer then Pen, “Do you kiss your partner after they give you head? Discuss!” you finished in your most formal voice. 

Right as you took a swig of your drink the mixed responses of yes and no filled your small space. 

“Why wouldn’t you? You guys especially, if someones willingly trying to swallow then you damn well owe them a kiss,” Emily finished earning nods and ‘exactly’s from JJ, Pen, and yourself. 

“Ok but thats weird. I just can’t explain it but its a no go for me,” Morgan finished. This only gained him a scoff and raised voices, “Hotch man help me out here,” he said looking over to the man hiding his smirk behind the amber liquid. 

“I have to agree with the ladies here Derek,” he said curtly. 

The girls yelped and hooted at Hotch for siding with them while Morgan sat with his arms crossed being the singular person left out as even Rossi agreed. Meanwhile you noticed the presence next to you had shrunk back and wasn’t too active in the conversation. 

“So Spence do you kiss your partner after they,” you trailed off shaking your fist by your cheek and poking your tongue in the side. 

He coughed as he instantly sat up quicker. Even under the dim lights of the bar you could still see the blush creeping up from his neck to his ears and the slightest tint on his cheeks. 

“Oh I uh- I never-” he said looking anywhere but your eyes. 

“You don’t kiss them?” you said raising your brows. 

“No! I-i mean yes. I would I think b-but I haven’t had the chance to actually partake in such.. activities,” he finished finally taking a look into your eyes. 

You could tell he was waiting for you to laugh in his face for being so inexperienced but you felt far from it. If anything you wished you could be the one to show him things. 

That sweet boy had you wrapped around his finger and he didn’t even know it. Maybe it was his naivety considering how exceptionally smart he was. Or maybe it was the cute sweater vests he wore and now he nervously tucked his hair behind his ears. All you knew was that you wanted Spencer Reid and tonight was your night to make it happen. 

You hummed taking in the information, “Well that’s not a bad thing Spence. Everything takes time,” you said putting your hand on his arm for comfort and giving him a smile. 

Going to turn back to face the table you almost didn’t hear Spencer go to speak again, “Do you?” 

Got him.

“Why don’t you find out pretty boy,” you said with a wink as you downed the rest of your marg. In the corner of your eye you could see Spencer shifting in his seat, subtly moving his bag to cover the slowly growing tent in his slacks. 

As the night went by you couldn’t help but really give him a show. You had popped open a button or two on the long sleeve you had on, since it was getting stuffy in the booth. Though when you leaned forward and jutted your chest out, the soft inhale of a breath from the man next to you was just serving as motivation to get bolder. 

For the last hour you called it quits on the alcohol and drank a few glasses of water before you drove home. Spencer had been uncharacteristically quiet ever since your little interactions. 

The team had all gotten up to say their goodbyes. Rossi going by and giving everyone a kiss on each cheek. Derek having to quite literally rangle Penelope from talking to passing by groups on their way out. Then there were two. 

You turned to the side where Spencer was nursing on his coke, “Hey pretty boy, it’s late, let me give you a ride home,” you said grabbing your belongings. 

“Y-yeah ok. Thanks Y/n,” he said getting up. You’d noticed how he still had the burnt orange bag over his crotch. He couldn’t still be hard could he? Well you’d love to find out. 

As gentlemanly as he was, Spencer opened the door for you to exit the building first. The whip of fresh night air cooling on your exposed chest and legs under your skirt. 

You unlocked your car and stepped in, Spencer waiting to hear the little beep signaling his side was open. As he sat down you heard him let out a little whimper. Your head shot over to look at him, you could tell from the flush on his cheeks he didn’t mean to let the noise out. 

Holding in your chuckle you started the ignition and pulled out of the lot, “Can I put on some music?” 

“Yeah I don’t mind,” he said looking over at you with his lips in a line. If it was anyone else, they’d probably think he was uncomfortable but you loved his tiny awkward smiles. 

The ride to his apartment was mostly silent besides a rare quip from Spencer about paper work or fact about an older building you had passed by. It fascinated you to no end hearing him talk. Spencer was a hand speaker, meaning he always used his hands waving them around and making gestures. The pale digits had you captivated. Probably a driving hazard but you couldn’t help but let your mind wander. 

You pulled up into one of the visitor spots and put the car in park. You looked over to see Spencer almost contemplating something. You’d seen the look on his face before when he was looking over puzzles. 

“Somethin on your mind Doc?” you said with a small smile. As cute as he looked when he was nervous, you’d never want him to feel uncomfortable around you. 

“Would you-,” he cleared his throat, “Wo- Would you maybe want to c-come inside?” 

“Of course Spence I’d love to,” you finished with a reassuring nod. 

As he led you upstairs you were giddy with anticipation. So what if nothing happened. He was your friend first and you were glad he was letting you into his personal space. Even if you wanted nothing more than to have him writhi-

“Y/n?” 

The door closing snapped you out of your thoughts. You didn’t even realize you were in his living room. The dark green walls and shelves bursting with books put a grin on your face, “Sorry Doc, just caught up in my thoughts. What did you say hun?” 

His brows practically raised to his hairline from hearing the pet name. While he was used to the names coming from Garcia they took a whole different light coming from your lips. 

“I was asking if you wanted water or something,” he said fiddling with the keys in his hands. Eyes darting everywhere but your face so you wouldn’t be able to see the flush rising on his cheeks. 

“No I’m fine thanks for asking though,” you said taking a seat on the worn leather couch. 

You reached for the tv remote making a face at Spencer to ask for permission. He nodded and you settled back turning on an old sitcom that played late at night. 

As the episode ended you both sat in silence. Again you didn’t mind but you could practically hear the cogs moving in Spencer’s brain. 

You were about to speak when he cut you off before you could even get a word out, “What did you mean by ‘why don’t you find out’.”

Gaining confidence you moved closer to where he was on the couch, slow enough for him to stop you in case he wanted to back out. 

“Well you have options pretty boy,” you said moving a leg to straddle him. Your hands instinctively going to his brown locks. You could’ve sworn you heard a little moan leave his chapped lips. Noted. 

“W-what are the options,” lust blown eyes looked up to yours. 

“One, you can put that mouth to good use on me,” you said trailing your finger over his bottom lip, “and let me cum over that pretty face.” 

His eyes shut hearing your words and you weren’t having it, “Nuh uh eyes on me honey,” instantly they were back on yours. 

“Or number two. I can suck you off and let you cum down my throat, but,” you paused making sure to roll your hips on his growing length, “ you have to give me a nice big smooch after.” 

The hands on your hips pulled you closer as he bucked his hips into you as you finished the sentence. It was clear which option was preferred. 

You moved to slide down in between his legs. You let your hands trail down his clothed thighs, causing him to jump. 

“Tsk such a needy boy,” you said mockingly, “Am I not going fast enough baby?”

“Please Y/n,” he all but whimpered. It was like music to your ears. 

Your hands went to his belt, looking up in his eyes for a final sign of permission. Once he nodded you quickly undid it and he lifted his hips to help get his pants down. You palmed him over his boxers, feeling the wet patch where he was already leaking pre cum. 

“Is this all for me Spence? Does the thought of my lips around you make you this hard,” you said taking him out of the striped confines. 

“Oh god please just,” he cut himself off. You could see his hands curling fists besides his legs. 

“Please what baby? I can’t give you anything unless you ask.” Your hands continued their task of leisurely stroking his length. 

“Fuck please put your mouth on me,” he rushed out, hips bucking to prove his point. 

The answer was good enough for you so you wasted no time in leaning forward and taking him in your mouth. Both of you let out content sighs as you tried to take him further. 

You looked up to see him with his head leaned back, eyes scrunched closes in pleasure. 

You pulled off with a pop, letting your hand work him over. “Better keep those pretty eyes on me before I decide you can’t finish.”

He looked down with a flash of worry, that was quickly replaced by a loud moan as you spit down on his cock before taking him in your mouth again. 

For a germaphobe, Spencer loved how nasty it was. He was thanking god or whatever higher being there was for giving him his eidetic memory because the sight below him was something he’d never wanna forget. 

Your eyes were teary and you had spit dribbling down your chin but he wanted nothing more than to give you more than just a kiss after you finished. Or well after he finishes. 

You could tell he was close by the way he was throbbing on your tongue. Again taking him out of your mouth you used both hands to jerk him off. 

“You’re doing such a good job baby. So good for me. You wanna cum in my mouth pretty boy?”

“God Y/n I’m so close please please please,” he whimpered out. 

“Cum for me baby, be my good boy Spence,”  you said before taking him down your throat. He was big, not girthy but long and it was a struggle but you’d be damned if you didn’t try to take him all. 

Hollowing your cheeks you bobbed your head quickly, egging on his release further. His hands finally found a place in the back of your head. Pushing you down further as he came. 

“F-fuck Y/n I’m gonna”

His moans and whines were a symphony of sounds you’d have on repeat in your head forever. 

You swallowed the salty release but before you could even wipe your lips you were being pulled up by Spencer placing his lips on yours. You moaned into the kiss, his hands gripped the sides of your face not wanting to let you go. 

The need for air made you both pull back. You looked at one another, chests heaving and looking like you ran a marathon. 

Then a sad look came across his face. 

“Spencer what’s wrong?” 

“You didn’t get any pleasure,” he said looking like a hurt puppy. Oh your sweet boy. 

“It’s ok baby, I can take care of myself,” you tried to shrug off.

He was quick to push you back on the couch, taking the spot you were previously in. His warm lips trailing down your exposed thighs. 

“I wanna do it, but only if you kiss me after.”

Criminal Minds and Their God Damn Plot Holes

Criminal minds would be a wildly different show if they ever actually tied up the loose ends of literally any single characters' backstory. I feel like their backstories remain so incredibly intangible throughout the whole show because most of them are just a mess of loose ends that get thrown in episodes when they are convenient and then completely ignored two episodes later. Thats not to say I don't love this show, I do, I just wonder about the universe where they actually care that Hotch was abused by his father, or actually explored Reid needing support for addiction, or what Gideon's relationship with his son Stephen was like, or literally like anything about Elle, etc. etc. I feel like y'all get the point lmao.

Derek is the most fully formed in terms of like backstory and consistency in my opinion. I think thats why he has the most consistent growth over his time on the show. You see how his father affected him, and how that informs the way that Morgan does his job in the FBI. His upbringing and his hometown are both crucial in the way he approaches cases and interacts with his coworkers. When he opens up about what he went through with Carl Buford, his entire demeanor and approach changes when he has kids on cases who went through what he went through. It also opens him up more to his team members, allowing him to be more vulnerable and intimate when offering and receiving help. Its cohesive and consistent. Its what all of the characters really deserved but I don't think they ever got.

Imagine how different Hotch's storyline would have been with Hayley and Jack if they continued to allow his father's abuse to inform his actions. You would have seen more introspection, more deliberation. He would have fought harder to stay in Jack's life. He could have wrestled with the thoughts of what it means to be a good father, considering he never had the best example. You never hear about Hotch's mom, what their relationship was like, what his mother and father's relationship was with each other. There is so much story potential there, especially considering how it relates to Gideon and his son and ex wife.

Imagine how different the story would have been if Gideon's story was explored with Stephen or his ex wife. Gideon has reconnecting with his son on the list of 25 things to do before he dies, like that is incredibly serious and it's the last thing he needed to cross off his list. Its insinuated that Gideon and his ex split due to his involvement with his job. Excuse me, so exactly what happened to Aaron? Maybe the situation could have opened a line of communication between Hotch and Gideon about family, what it means to be a father and still do this job properly, the way they both want to. Clearly Gideon would have ample wisdom to share, and the relationship between the two of them would have grown so much exploring how similar they are and how different their situations could turn out.

Instead, these points of their backstories are relegated to a few throwaway lines in a season one that the writers never revisit.

There were so many characters in the show, and so much plot to cover in each episode for the crimes to make sense and feel fully realized, that so much of the personal development of these characters got swept to the side in the early seasons. There was such little precedent for the way personal story lines were explored, so in the later seasons, you see an exaggeration of the personal stakes each character has in the crimes in order to explore their team dynamics and personal lives. I think that's where things started to get out of hand and devolve in many viewers eyes, especially in the last few seasons.

11x23 thoughts.

Are you really, REALLY telling me that Judith and RJ were in Alexandria the whole time and we got no.. like.. reunions? These two kids hold the most significance of Alexandria’s children and we’re just supposed to believe that they simply APPEARED?

JDM and Eleanor Matsura have carried the performances for the back half of S11. I have LOVED watching Negan and Yumiko in 11C.

I still don’t understand how Negan and Maggie are supposedly going to end up in Manhattan for Dead City. The two of them quite literally are at odds. Maggie despised him. Then they’re suddenly going to be buddy buddy enough to be carrying an entire spin off together? 🤨

Using the Whisperer’s tactic of communication while in that horde is a brilliant idea. I would have loved to have seen this used sooner.

Honestly the best part of this C-List season is all the callbacks to the earliest seasons. Callbacks to Rick and Atlanta, to Lori and to Ezekiel’s earliest days we see in S7, to the parallel of Negan being forced to his knees vs him forcing Rick to his knees, I could literally continue.

“It was to save all of you. You all are better then me. If you think I don’t know that, then you haven’t been paying attention.” TELL ME AGAIN NEGAN’S REDEMPTION ARC ISN’T REMARKABLE. TELL ME.

This arc for Judith is so bitter sweet. This kid has had so many people who have loved her and she just wants to honor them. It’s exactly what I would expect for Rick’s daughter.

Princess and Mercer 🥹

Oh lord, hasn’t Lydia suffered enough? Now we had to have her get bit too???

MY GIRLFRIEND IS COMING BACK 😭😭😭😭😭

Ross Marquand is a good friend to a dear friend of mine I met back in 2016. I have heard literally nothing but good things and stories about the man. Seeing as how he’s been playing my favorite minor character since 2015, I am SO glad Aaron has made it this far. He has had SUCH good character development.

If Jerry dies I will straight up never forgive Kang and AMC LOL

Lydia’s little voice break on “they need us” 😭

It’s been a while since we had a good old fashioned ambush and firefight!!

The way I BURST INTO TEARS WHEN JUDITH GOT SHOT-

NO PLEASe THATS MY BABY

Daryl shooting Ricks gun just. Does things to me.

** The scene with Pamela and Vickers is MASTERFULLY done in all accounts: Blocking, acting, music, all of it. It really shows you as the viewer that Pamela has had it out for no one but herself this entire time and only places value on her own life — so much so to the point that she’s willing to sacrifice the civilians of the city. I wish I knew her actresses name because just like Hornsby, she’s KILLED it.

Negan getting to drop his F bomb has me WHEEZING

See this episode definitely has what I wanted it to have. Character centric.

WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT CAROL PRACTICALLY SHOVING DARYL THROUGH THE GAP INTO THE ALLEY

NO BABY DIDNT JUST CALL DARYL DADDY 😭😭😭😭😭😂

Side note: Personally, this season is down there on my list of least favorites. S8 is first. 11 is second. 2 and 1 are third and fourth.

AND THE SHOT FOR THE SERIES FINALE OF DARYL AND JUDITH UNCONSCIOUS BESIDE EACH OTHER ON THE FLOOR???

[iwanthermidnightz]

The quote from the Jack about the point being to “find *your* people” is so true. When you start to find *your* people, you become more comfortable in being vulnerable enough to slightly let people see you if that makes sense.

I feel like that idea/concept applies to red, 1989, reputation, lover, folklore/evermore. I think Taylor started to lean into that with red and 1989, but fully embraced it with reputation, folklore and evermore.

For the longest time, people heard Taylor’s music with a “wash, rinse, repeat” mindset—automatically reducing it to songs about ex boyfriends, etc. Dismissing her craft by saying she couldn’t write a song or make an album unless she broke up with someone first.

Rep, Lover, folklore & evermore were each different in their own way and I think that *her* people are the ones who really connected to them whereas some people were disappointed that those albums weren’t in the vein (or an exact copy) of 1989. Even in that disappointment, she still connected with people who may have never thought they would have or could have done so in the way that they did.

With reputation, some people were SO quick to write that album off because it wasn’t what they felt accustomed or entitled to—the music “wasn’t good”….because they didn’t get it. It didn’t cater to them. The stadium tour was going to flop because the music didn’t apply to “her crowd”.

But you know who did get it? You know who understands the undertones on folklore/evermore? The LGBTQIA community. Now compare “her people” to *her* people.

Jack was on 🎯 with his comment. I think his comment is definitely something he has opened her eyes to as they have worked together on her last couple of albums and you can hear it.

So true. I completely understand what you mean. I think we’ve talked about this regarding Taylor plenty of times over the years. There was this visible shift starting 1989 era, particularly when she moved to New York and started experiencing new things and people. This was only the start. How much she’s grown from then to now always makes me smile. Of course this is called growing up, but theres something about letting go of your fears (and your ghosts) and taking a leap into territory you were always afraid of and surrounding yourself with likeminded people and trying to find yourself. You can see that shift in her demeanor, the clothes she wore, the people she was around etc. I think some of these same people are still on this journey with her because they’ve formed meaningful relationships and bonds and she holds them close and is protective over that. They’re still with her in the shadows, in the darkest times and in the good times as well.

With her music I feel like there was always this unspoken rule to cater to certain audiences, to make a bop and a cohesive body of work by following certain rules. While previous songs are still personal, you can see a huge shift with reputation where she let her guard down and wasn’t afraid to be vulnerable. It was something for her that she needed to say with no questions asked. This is where certain audiences felt seen and related to it because it was tangible to our experiences. The experience of finding yourself, people who are like you and people who make you happy and wanting to protect it but also still going through some really dark shit and trying to balance it all. I think the time leading up to reputation era was a time of major soul searching and personal growth even though it was a hard time. I don’t want to say in exacting terms, but it feels like around this time she accepted herself and that step opened many other doors for her and she chose to live in a way that works for her.

Lover is vulnerable in its own way because she allowed herself to explicitly specify whats important to her as a person and how this shapes the way she lives and writes. Theres this confidence and stability in what shes trying to say yet anxiety as well, and dipping into experiences from her youth. This bleeds over into the next albums. She’s vulnerable enough to let certain people have a glimpse, while others see the deeper picture.

folklore/evermore is a whole other dimension of vulnerability and rawness that we’ve never witnessed from her, and I think thats why its so special. She allowed herself to escape reality, to go back in time and to feel a spectrum of emotions in this world of isolation, and to put it out there unvarnished. Feelings that she spent her whole life trying to put into words, but protecting that side of her at the same time. I think how she presented these albums and the experiences behind it resonated with a certain group of people more than others and brought up feelings that have been pushed down for a while, but also the major nostalgia and innocence it made us feel.

To get back to Jack, I think her working on all these albums with him and him diving with her into the deep shit and talking through it definitely resonated over the years and I love that they can create in a honest safe space like that. The same goes for Aaron. I think they work well together in this aspect. They aren’t afraid to go to the deep end and thats where art is made.

You have to first make art for yourself and hope that it resonates with your people and when it does I imagine that’s a special feeling knowing that at least some people get what you’re trying to say.

hi! can we know a little more about blueberry? i miss them hahaha

My boy!!! I haven’t talked about him in months.

- he’s obviously a boy compared to the other Mew’s we’ve seen that are “female coded” in my mind at least. And Blueberry is a shiny as well. That’s where his name came from.

- Blueberry is incredibly small and will stay small. Almost… I would say half the size of Pikachu when full grown. A HC trait that i have for shiny’s is that their either really large for their species or really little.

- a very quite boi. Like Ash will literally forget he’s there unless BB makes some kind of noise or is physically tucked against him.

- Ash gets the egg, see the first post of BB’s existence, around the tike between Sinnoh and Unova. Leaving Blueberry in either another legendary’s or mythical care in hopes BB would get to know what being a “God” is like.

- this ends up with Ash finally meeting the Mew that resides in Pallet Town, Pippin what I dubbed her so far, she comes in once she finds out that Blueberry exists. Offering her services in teaching the young Mew while keeping him at the ranch where all of Ash’s Pokemon live since they couldn’t keep living at Professor Oaks Lab. That amount of Pokemon from one trainer takes up way to much space and ash refuses to but them in the internet box thingies.

- more on the other mews, I’ve made another post about this, but excluding BB there’s about four more Mews in the world. There’s the original Mew who runs interference between Arceus, Pokémon, and Humans. Keeping little things balanced in the world so it all doesn’t pile up and cause even more mess. Her name is Mama or Ma’am! She also stops Arceus from dropping a whole new line of Pokémon in a randomly picked region just because he wants to. That’s like… really 87% of her job.

- Nana is next. She’s the Mew that takes care of the Tree of Life in Hoenn. It’s a very demanding job and thats why Mama made another Mew to help. On top of keeping the tree healthy and safe from poachers and other harmful things, Mama takes care of the Pokemon inside and around the tree perimeter along with the castle and village nearby. She only recently started taking more care in the village after Sir Aaron’s lucario asked her before being absorbed by the tree.

- Pippin is obviously next. Her home is Pallet town but her job is really close to Mama’s. She travels the world as more of a watcher. Reporting to Mama when she spots something off. She’s actually the Mew Mewtwo fought off in the first movie. Unable to contact Mama who was off planet and where ever the fuck Arceus was, she took the job. Happy to at least get everyone out alive despite accidentally helping Ash get turned into stone. This guilt a,so fed her to offer her service as a mentor towards Blueberry down the path.

-Blueberry’s main job, and why he was brought into existence, is that hes the last link Ash needs to fully be the Chosen one “full time” in a way. Ash is what Arceus and Mama refer to as a Human Legendary. Pikachu had grown into being the helping link between Ash and other Pokémon given how well he and Ash are connected. Filling the gap that Ash can’t. Blueberry’s job is exactly that but for more mythical based Pokémon and Legendary’s. Giving Ash the rounded experience he needs to really get his fated job done.

[crazy-fangirl2524]

I read your bisexual aromantic Kevin post and omg im so intrigued! could you (if you want ofc) expand on why you think he's aromantic or other headcanons you have about it? Thank you!

Canonly, Kevin was supposed to be with Andrew and Neil. Nora was forced to cut out all that part as she thinks it’s “too much”. Thus according to this, Kevin was actually not straight but then nora changed it.

The whole fandom felt that Kevin is definitely not straight and either ship him with Andrew, Neil, Nicky, Aaron or their ocs. And it could be said that Nora used Thea as a shock factor and to just pair him up with someone. Furthermore, when renee told Neil that Andrew’s not straight Neil’s first thought was that Kevin and Andrew. Moreover, Kevin said “it’s easier to remain heterosexual,” this could imply that this was what he thought about himself.

So thats why I think Kevin day is bisexual.

“Their [Kevin and thea] relationship is built initially on intense physical attraction and athletic respect. It deepens over the years, but Exy will always be tangled up in the midst of it. They’re less about romantic getaways and more interested in beating each other up on the court.”

This is taken straight from the extra content (I know many people don’t consider that as canon, but personally I consider anything written by the author canon so bear with me for this okay). As many people didn’t actually take time to read the extra content, many may have skipped this.

This shows that at first their relationship was all physical and sexual, and only later developed into something more. However I never felt anything from Kevin and Thea and we never saw much so it’s normal to imagine that they broke up later (if you never read the extra content).

Now, we all know that Kevin is obsess with exy, (even obsess is to put it lightly). He put his whole focus on exy because that was what he was taught his entire life. The nest never allowed kevin to have any relationships and he never really find a problem with that? (I mean sure he did had a secret one with Thea but I never see that it was anything more than intrigued or sexual)

Now there’s also four and a half year age difference between Thea and Kevin, therefore, Kevin was only fourteen years old when Thea was eighteen and Kevin was a minor when their relationship began. And I hate big age differences so.

Then why not make Kevin biromantic? because every time someone ship Kevin with anyone else, they change many aspect of him. And I’m not saying that it’s not making Kevin “better” but it is literally just cutting out chunks of his character and moulding him into someone else. Kevin in the books literally never hinted to like anyone in anyway (it could be because he was already in a relationship with Thea but then Thea and him hadn’t talk since he got out of the nest and Kevin didn’t even think about telling her anything?! How does that screams a relationship to anyone? Therefore I rest my case that Kevin and Thea were only physical up until the end of tkm, the rest it depends on what one believes in)

And we rarely see aromantic characters in books or headcanon because the media made it seemed that to be complete or to heal from trauma or anything you will need someone. Yes of course people need support from others but it doesn’t necessarily have to be from your partner or someone romantically. It can be from friends and family which in my opinion is just as important as romantic relationships.

It is so easy to ship kevin with anyone. You can ship kevin with Andrew, Neil, Aaron, Nicky, Allison, Matt, jean, Jeremy. Literally anyone. He is the easiest character to ship with anyone in the books. So why the fuck not make him be satisfied with himself?! Why must we change part of him to make him suit another person when he is perfectly fine the way he is?

Honestly to be short and shallow I headcanoned him as aromantic because I want an aromantic character and all other characters are already taken lmao and I’m too lazy to make ocs for Kevin so making him aromantic make sense and I don’t want to make it about his trauma but he was literally taught to just make exy priority and nothing else so I feel like he never learn to care for relationships and then all the mafia shit and no time and Kevin couldn’t care more or else and feel like it’s wasting time and too much effort so yeah Kevin is aromantic. Oh ya and also there’s too little Kevin content on tumblr and I wanna write sth Kevin related and the first thing that pops up into mind is this. And I also have seen post saying Kevin is aro/ace but I don’t think he is asexual because the way Kevin sees Jeremy and giving his rare genuine smile yeah right straight my ass and Kevin must had been at least a little attracted to Andrew but was just too scared and had too many other things to worry about so.

the hell is mystreet season 6??

(warning, long post ahead)

ok so before i start this

1) ive never posted shiiiit on tumblr before so watch me suffer, im just here to talk about stuff that my friends who dont know anything about aphmau have to listen to me rant about for hours on end

2) i havent seen mystreet in like years (except season 3, i watch that frequently since im laurance and shadow knight deprived) so please bear with me because i might be completely wrong on this lol. it’s just like, pointing out things i remember

3) im sure someones already talked about this but who cares

4) im gonna do this stupid thing where i just explain myself a bit at first, if you dont want to read that just skip to the part where you see “the actual thingy:” in bold and italics 

5) mild disclaimer; i am completely aware that jessica is not a professional writer. i know that she did her best to appeal to her fans, and honestly, respect for that. while this post will come off as aggressive and probably look like hate, that’s not my intention in the slightest. it’s just... intense criticism. im sure y’all probably already know that, but yeah, just stating that anyways. i do believe that jess is doing her best, and in no way do i want to dismiss any hard work she’s done. that being said; prepare for a very strongly opinionated post.

haha watch there be 10000+ typos in this making me look like a complete dumbass

ok here we go 

one of the main reasons i stopped watching aphmau back in 2017 was the mess that was season 4. like, in the first few episodes of the emerald secret, i thought “woah!! this is kinda cool, im a sucker for mystery!” because of course i was, it was something new and something exciting. the only problem i had with it at the time was kim, but that’s just because i always found her annoying and out of place. i just didn’t understand why garroth dragged her along and honestly i still don’t to this day BUT, moving on.

anyways, as the season progressed, 13 year old me was of course just “:0!!” the entire time--that is, up until the reveal of the main villain. i remember watching the episode, seeing the reveal of ein, and then stopping. like, just for a quick break, but i was still just overwhelmingly disappointed. like, and this was the time when pdh was airing and ein just got made alpha (i think?) and i had really really liked eins character in pdh. either way, that really sucked and actually opened my eyes to a lot of things.

one of the main things bein’ the fact that this was supposed to be a slice of life kinda series that decided to take a turn to a more edgy kinda approach. which, i guess i regularly wouldnt mind? but seeing as mcd was kinda bein neglected at the time it just didnt sit right with me. BUT WHATEVER, point is i stopped watching mystreet all together at the end of season 4.

like, a whole year later my brother tells me that shit’s getting intense in season 5 + 6 of mystreet, and my brilliant self decided to give it a shot--but i refused to watch all of season 5, so i only stepped in when ein made an appearance. so whenever that was, that’s where i picked up because i didnt care enough to see 

and y’know--i honestly didn’t hate it at first. in fact, i found it oddly cool. it wasn’t enough to get me into aphmau again, but it was enough to where i was intrigued. i dont know why, but i never watched the finale, so i didnt see the ending until just a few weeks ago--but back then, i thought it was neat. looking back on it however... im just so confused. 

side note: only got back into aphmau this time around because of mcd. mainly because like, i adore the first season and the first half of the second season. and being nearly 18 now, im a lot more appreciative of plot and well-written characters n junk. 

the actual thingy:

ok back on track. imma stop spilling out my story of how i got back into aphmau, and lets just skip to what rewatching mcd made me realize of season 6′s plot and shit:

-emmalyn. how the fuck does ghost even remotely exist? if she’s emmalyn as claimed, then why have we already seen emmalyn in the mystreet universe alive? look i get that creators can do whatever they want with their stories but at the same time please provide some sort of explanation good god. and maybe they did and i just havent seen it, so if there is one--let me know. but until that day imma just sit here confused as fuck

-ok so imma just be real, the whole ‘ultima’ thing is just... not great. in my opinion, anyways. like... i saw someone mention this in another post, but if this ultima stuff was like, a really big deal, why isnt it mentioned in mcd? though i suppose since its a curse of sorts, it could be later on past the time period in which mcd takes place--but even then, how did it manage to make its way into aaron’s family bloodline? 

-WHY IS EVERYONE AT STARLIGHT ITS JUST SO CONVINIENT like what happened to this place being the most expensive shit on the planet or whatever, and how the gang happens to run into like, the werewolf trio and blaze and kai and guy and nate all of these people like god damn life doesnt WORK LIKE THAT 

-im sorry but turning people into relics? thats... thats the best you could come up with? plus, like, how does that even work? in mcd it’s established that relics are separate entitles that choose their wielder, based on a ‘personal’ connection (being a descendent of a previous wielder) or if they’re a good match personality and (i think?) moral wise. so the whole turning-people-into-relics doesnt make much sense to be honest. 

-irene really over here using her god powers to only keep her friends alive like god damn not a great god if you ask me 

-can i talk about how incredibly predictable aphmaus death was? like i just kinda sat there waiting for it to happen and when it did i literally went “haha! wonder when she’ll be revived” because god forbid we actually kill off characters 

-when aphmau + demon warlock fought in the irene dimension there was no passage of time whatsoever in the real world whiiiiiiiiich really bothers me because they fought in there for at least a few minutes

-speaking of aphmau and the demon warlocks fight does it bother anyone else that it had to be aaron who took over the fight?? like we get it hes the big protector blah blah blah but god damn it wouldve been cooler if aphmau had fought this battle as her. aaron fighting this battle was so underwhelming

-...love. like, thats the only thing thats needed to break out of a forever potion? love? LIKE YEAH, GOOD GUYS GOTTA WIN SOMEHOW, but its just so cliche and overdoneeee

-oh yeah and also when travis went bonkers and became the demon warlock or whatever, why’d he only take over katelyn and garroth?? like, zane had been influenced by the potions in the past as well? DONT GET ME WRONG--i do love some good brother edge, but uh, the demon warlock was just bein kinda a dumbass by not possessing zane too just sayin’

-can aaron please go to fucking jail for mass murder now like holy shit, he just got sent home on a fuckin boat. also why did blaze forgive him for killing him thats not even remotely realistic. then again, nothing in mystreet has ever been realistic when it comes to characters and motives and personalities, (cough katelyn being actually abusive and travis being an actual pervert) but yknow whatever

-katelyn and kawaii chan literally added nothing to the plot whatsoever. like lets be real, katelyn lost her personality the moment season 5 started and kawaii chan just kinda sits there :I

-ok im sorry this was bound to come up but cmon guys imagine laurances potential if he was in season 6 like god damn this is beyond maddening. AND YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A REALLY REALLY COOL PARRALLEL?? IF IT WAS LAURANCE WHO SNAPPED GARROTH OUT OF HIS MIND CONTROL THING, because it would mimic laurance’s speech to get garroth to snap out of his rage in season 1, episode 100 of minecraft diaries. like how fuckin rad would that have been? missed opportunity 

-also?? why does kim/ghost know magicks?? like, if i remember correctly, emmalyn is a scholar--not someone who knew magicks. i mean, i guess research? study?? but its been established that knowing how magicks works =/= being able to use magicks. i dunno, just doesnt seem right i guess. maybe its explained, i wouldnt know (yes i know that makes me look like a dick leave me alone)

-melissa should have stayed dead. LIKE, NO, ITS NOT AS SIMPLE AS “haha it takes more than a few bullets to kill me”??? look ive got nothing wrong with melissa (cough lie cough) but yknow it would have just been cool a character... stay dead? for once? its just too fuckin cliche that shes alive god damn

-can i also just say the only good thing that came out of season 6 was travis’ dads sacrifice like damn that made me actually sad

-howww was lucinda turned into a relic. or yknow, anyone else? like im sure they explain it better in the actual show i just dont remember, but its just that easy? turning anyone into a relic? granted, a normal person wouldnt be able to produce a good relic, but idk man. IM JUST SAYING; that the only really powerful relics that aphmau should have been able to wield is the one that aaron + zane produced because shad relic and esmund relic moment. lucinda isnt even like, connected to a divine warrior. ALSO, another point, if its seriously that powerful of a relic getting one from just a magic user like lucinda, why go through the trouble? i mean i guess ofc youd want the “all powerful” one that the ultima produces but i mean damn whats the point

-ok this is just going to bother me but in one of the episodes (i think might have been in season 5 actually) where that like, guardian dude was chasing aphmau and zane and at one point they split up and the dude just chuckles at zane diverting paths and goes under his breath “youre not the important one here”, suggesting that aphmau somehow is? first of all, id argue that any ro’meave is significantly more important than aphmau was, especially not knowing much about her other than that shes with aaron. i might be missing some bits an pieces, but if i was that dude id forget about aphmau and go after zane 

-killing off derek for shock factor sucked, and i know the moment was supposed to be really sad because like “oh :( aarons dad is sacrificing himself for his son” but lets be real dereks still was a shitty father and i dont think his reasons for doing what he did was very good at all

-less about plot or more like: why the absolute fuck did the gang bring kim along instead of, oh i dont know, a life-long friend? like, laurance or dante maybe?? im sure its explained, i never saw aphmaus year or most of season 5, but god DAMN id hate to be apart of this friend group AND GOD LIKE, imagine reconnecting with an old friend who ends up getting closer to your best friends and taking priority in their lives over you (cough laurance) like god damn lol

-im just going to preface this one with: i dont remember everything that’s happened, so if im wrong i apologize in advance--but (you actually can correct me if im wrong and please do) didnt like, irene reincarnate her friends in order to give them better lives? I DONT KNOW IF THIS IS TRUE, ITS JUST WHAT I REMEMBER--however, if im correct, then:

a. why the hell would she bring back someone like zane, or gene, or ivy, etc.

b. why the hell do they all have the same exact names? first and last? again, im aware that the whole mystreet+mcd tie wasn’t originally supposed to be there, but i dont think that means such a coincidence can be excused? its just a bit much if you ask me.

c. why the hell is the fact that (as much as i literally hate this) aaron is a decedent of shad being ignored? like, you’d think that something like this would be something thats actually important, or something the demon warlock couldve taken advantage of. or are we completely erasing every other connections to divine warriors besides aphmau + irene? because even if irene did reincarnate them or do whatever it is she did, does she even have the power to sever the connections between them and their ancestors? my guess is, no.

d. speaking of irene why on earth was aphmau able to talk to/see irene, they’re literally the same person are they not? did she like, fuckin reincarnate herself without actually doing it?? BUT--i will give it to them, the demon warlock did refer to aphmau as something along the lines of being “one of the 3 parts of her broken soul” or something like that. however, my point still remains. also what are the other two did i miss that or is it never explained

now; if irene in fact did not ‘reincarnate’ her friends then please ignore that little bit right there :)

but yes, those are a few of the problems i have with season 6 off the top of my head. i would go into like, season 4 and 5 more as well, but i honestly didnt feel like it. at some point i might go into other things, like how important laurance could have been to the plot of these later seasons, or HELL, even dante. i might also go into what could have made season 4, 5, and 6 actually good--maybe... a rewrite? perhaps? but im getting too far ahead of myself, so i just leave you with this for now.

and i know that as soon as i post this 15 more things are just going to pop into my head BUT im going to try and not edit this post because why stress myself with that even more

anyways thank you for coming to my tedtalk 

[mcd-ms-rants]

I wrote the whole post and TUMBLR DECIDED TO DELETE THE WHOLE THING

anyways it’s finally here

take

STUFF I DIDNT LIKE ABOUT MYSTREET SEASON 4:

• ok but the animations here are great. actually tho they're so fluid and clear. Credits to whoever made them!!

• and now let’s do the real thing

• ok so first off this is where the actual plot starts. I know that some people were getting bored of the monotony of the slice of life episodes so they liked it. Again there’s nothing inherently wrong with having it but you have to remember that these characters most likely weren’t written to be in a plot and I say this because their personalities are funny and lighthearted. Their clearly meant for comedy. This also makes them redundant for plot since most of them a few characters barely have any development which is probably why like half the cast was dropped. im not sure how far back jess had planned the plot but needless to say most of the characters wouldn‘t be able to fit there. Travis, Katelyn, KC and the sk’s just dipped for the whole season and even when kc, Travis and Katelyn do show up in s5 their personalities really took a beating

• WHERE DID LAURANCE AND DANTE GO?? We never see them after s3. its probably because their personalities were too funny for plot but laurance was a shadow knight in mcd and since the whole of mys is so hyped up on the whole ‘mcd and mys are connected’ thing by all means he should’ve been there too

• it makes sense that since the lodge is jointly owned by the Ro’meaves and the Lycans, Garroth, Zane and Aaron- and by extension, Aphmau- would come along. it make sense that they would ask Lucinda for help- she’s a skilled witch and has been their friend since high school. theyre literally neighbors. it makes NO SENSE to being Kim- a girl whom they’ve barely ever interacted with and whom they barely know- to a place meant for close family to go to. Ok from a plot perspective yes Kim needed to be there but Aphmau logically doesnt know that yet.

• how does ghost/emmalyn even exist?? We’ve seen emmalyn and kenmur in s1 and they’re ok. not dead or anything. Yes I know that this is mcd emmalyn and she is directly referencing mcd Zane when she says that’s the only name she remembers from when she was alive but that raises two questions- first, how can both mcd and mys versions of her exist at the same time?? and second, what exactly happened between her and mcd zane?? It sounds like she either hates him way more than she loves kenmur (or she’d remember him too) that it’s the only name she remembers or its Stockholm Syndrome.

• I feel that since the plot demanded a ghost vessel thing that was the only reason Aphmau brought Kim. it’s pretty clear that Dante and laurance wouldn’t fit the role because of their personalities so she just remade an older character and changed her completely right down to her skin to fit the plot. her whole personality changes with it- look at her I mean she even becomes more open when she talks. Again this only happened because none of the existing characters could fill that role because IT WASNT MEANT TO HAVE PLOT

• no one likes you michi girl take the hint

• seeing liochant brings back meMoriEs

• what was that potion that lucinda made and which Garroth threw on Zane?? its clear that it cured him from the effects of the forever potion but the bigger question is WHY DONT THEY USE THIS IN S6?? Ok yes in s4 Aphmau gets freed by the power of love(TM) but that doesn’t mean you do that for everyone

• as someone who liked Laurance’s character I miss him :(

• ok there’s WAY TOO MANY PROBLEMS with Ein and his villain shtick. Ein is basically some obsessive werewolf yandere boy who has an unhealthy obsession with aphmau and hates Aaron. and the cherry on top is that Aphmau is his HALF SISTER. THATS INC*ST. That’s GROSS. What is it with Aphmau antagonists and not having a clear motive or backstory?? mcd Zane and Ein both suffer from this and it shows. there were definitely better motives to give him- he doesn’t have to be centered around Aphmau all the time!! And even if you don’t want to go to all the trouble of rewriting the plot you could at least make it so that Ein knows that he and Aphmau are related. Maybe he wants a perfect sister instead and he’s willing to go to any lengths to get her there. it would still be dark and serious but it would be SO MUCH BETTER than the current plotline. Also showing the contrast between his pdh and s4 self and then not giving any semblance of an explanation really makes it difficult to imagine where it all went wrong. yes Michael definitely had something to do with it but to what extent?? How much is Ein actually in control of?? Is he under the influence of a forever potion when he turns Zane, Lucinda and Aphmau to his side?? Is he still under its influence when he fights Aaron?? look I get that they can’t reveal everything but leaving out THIS MUCH and not even revealing it in s6 makes it very difficult to accurately nail Ein’s character.

• how is Aaron even revived?? is that Irene?? how is she here and what is she doing here?? Can we have answers pls. also it makes no sense that she saves Aaron TWICE- once in s4 and second in s6. How does death even work here if Irene can just swoop in and bring them back to life. i feel like none of the villains ever count as threats then because you know that a cryptic mysterious goddess who somehow looks just like your girlfriend will revive you.

• how did Aaron even survive?? No seriously how?? We know that there’s no service or wifi up there at the lodge so using their phones is out of the question. i don’t think Lucinda would be able to conjure up a whole medical team for Aaron. and they're on a MOUNTAIN. It takes precious time to get down from it. for context, even if they sent Garroth (since he’s the fastest) down to get help they’d have to wait for him to reach the village area at the base of the mountain, get a phone, call for help, wait for said help to arrive and get Aaron to a hospital. meanwhile Aaron is bleeding out from multiple gashes on his chest made at like point black range that are critical at best and fatal at worst. (his only saving grace is the snow he’s on which would help to numb the wound because its cold but he has like FIVE deep chest wounds and the snow isn’t even on his wounds.) Ya sorry I don’t see how he manages to survive.

• did I mention that I miss Laurance?? • Why is Aaron not at a hospital I don’t even see a ventilator or oxygen mask near him. Listen I’m not a medical expert but those gashes landed straight on his chest which means straight on his lungs and dangerously close to his heart. how is he alive. how is he not choking on blood right now. we know he’s bleeding out- I’m pretty sure one of the doctors even says “Mrs Lycan, we need to draw more blood for your son.” yes he’s bleeding out why is no one trying to idk stop the wound through pressure with a cloth or something?? (Note: it’s been a while since I’ve watched s4, so if I do get anything wrong thats why!!) also why are the werewolf doctors so chill about Aaron’s ultima eyes? like yes they’re doctors they could’ve been sworn to secrecy or maybe they work for the Lycans but Derek is shown to be really paranoid about anyone finding out about Aaron being the ultima. how does he know they won’t tell it to someone else??

k imma head out now-

thanks for reading!! <3 <3

Meeting you Flipped the World Upside Down - Or Maybe Just Mine

Here is Chapter 9, I’m going to apologize in advance for the angst thats going to happen from here on out. As much as I love Aaron I stand strongly behind the belief that he just wouldn’t be that great of a partner and my writing recently has been very open about that. I’m not completely cynical, there will be a resolution at some point. Maybe. 

Summary: Reader has been a rut, stuck in a never ending cycle of college worries and job interviews. Never did she think that SSA Aaron Hotchner, or Agent as she likes to call him, would walk into her favorite late night diner and flip her world upside down. And he for sure didn't expect to fall in love so quickly with the soon to be college grad. They navigate finding love and working together to rediscover what that means for each of them.

Pairing: Aaron Hotchner X Female Reader

Word Count: 1.5k

Love Isn’t Supposed to Feel Like This

The summer green slowly faded into fall browns and reds. The best season, in your opinion of course. Aaron stuck to his promise on visiting when he could, Jack tagging along when he had long weekends. You also drove down when you had the chance, so not as often as you would’ve liked. Halloween was coming up and you were determined to go trick-or-treating with the Hotchner boys so right after your Thursday class you packed the Subaru and drove to DC. You knew Aaron would still be at the office so you dropped your stuff off at his apartment and made your way to Quantico. Jack was with Jessica so you didn’t need to worry about picking him up until tomorrow anyways. 

You parked in the visitor lot and walked into the lobby, going through the rigorous security to get your visitor pass. You were finally on your way up to the 5th floor after 20 minutes. You were practically bouncing with anticipation. Aaron and the team had been on back-to-back cases lately so it’s been longer than normal since you’ve seen him. Of course he called and texted you in his free time but being with him was a whole separate experience. 

When you pushed the glass doors open Emily spotted you first, waving you over for a hug.

“We weren’t expecting you! Does Hotch know you’re here?”

“No, I thought I’d surprise him. I know you guys have been working incredibly hard these past few weeks. I figured it wouldn’t hurt if I came for Halloween.”

“How did Hotch deserve you? Seriously.” 

“He does his fair share of surprises, I’d say we're both lucky.” You quipped back, still smiling. Spencer waved to you from the kitchen and you saw Rossi from his window. 

“If you don’t mind, I’m gonna head up to see him. It’s been a while.”

“Of course, text us how long you’re in town and we’ll try to plan something.”

“Thanks Em.” You climbed the stairs to Aaron’s office and knocked softly. He muttered something along the lines of “come in” when you pushed the door open. 

He hadn’t looked up from his paperwork when you stalked in so you slowly made your way over to his desk. Placing one hand on the desk, leaning towards him, you whispered, 

“Hi honey.” His head shot up at your voice and he broke out in one of the biggest smiles you’ve seen the man give. He stood up and embraced you in a tight hug. 

“I wasn’t expecting you. What’re you doing here?” You tilted your head to give him a soft kiss. 

“I missed you. And I wanted to spend Halloween with the Hotchner men. Figured you two could show me a better time than campus could.” He smiled into another kiss. And another. And another. 

“Let me finish up this file and then we can head out okay?” 

“I’ve waited weeks, I’m sure I can wait an extra hour. I’m gonna go check in on Dave, if you finish before I get back you know where to find me.” You kissed him once more before walking next door. 

“Hey Dave.” 

He was quick to walk over to you and hug you, similar to Aaron. 

“Bella! What’re you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be cramming for midterms or something?”

You laughed lightly, “technically, yes. I missed Aaron and Jack so I took a couple days for myself. Plus Jack wanted me to come and see his costume in person. How could I say no?”

He chuckled before taking a seat on his couch and gesturing for you too as well, “I suppose you’re right. I need to have you over before you head back to campus.”

“I would really like that. I’ve missed DC more than I would like to admit. I thought New York was where I wanted to spend the rest of my life but I don’t know anymore. I’ve been looking for jobs here, obviously. But I’ve also been applying more west, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah. I can see myself out there. I got an offer the other day from the office in Billings for once I graduate, I just don’t know what to do.”

“You need to do what's right for you kid. None of us would judge you for following your dreams, but I’m not the one you should be having this conversation with.”

“I just don’t want to ruin the weekend, it’s been so long since we’ve all been together. I just want some normalcy, for both of us. You know?”

“If I know Aaron, and I assure you I do, he would want to know what you’re feeling. It’s not fair to either of you if you don’t communicate what you’re thinking.”

“I know that Dave. I’ll talk to him about it soon, just, not right now.” Of course Aaron had to stick his head in at that exact moment. 

“What not right now Y/N.” He stepped closer and put a hand on your hip.

“Nothing Agent,” that was one way to get him to smile, “you ready to go?”

“Yeah, I can drive and we can get your car tomorrow morning. Goodnight Dave.” He pulled you with him out the door and you called out goodnight as well. 

You and Aaron were curled up on his couch, you on top of him with your head on his chest listening to his steady heartbeat. His hand was in your hair massaging your scalp. 

“Somethings on your mind love, you know you can talk to me about anything right?” He sounded unusually nervous, it felt unnatural. You lifted your head up to look at him and he looked nervous as well. 

“I just want to be here with you Aaron, please. Can we talk in the morning?” He slowly sat up and effectively moved you off of him. I guess you are gonna have this talk now. 

“I want to talk now, I won’t be able to sleep unless I know what's going on in that head of yours. It can’t be that bad Y/N, we tell each other everything.”

“Aaron it’s nearly 3 am, I don’t want to talk about it. Why can’t you respect that. I’m going to go to the bedroom to get ready for bed, you’re welcome to join me.” Before you could fully stand up he grabbed your wrist and pulled you back down to the couch. Maybe it was the late night getting to him but you had never seen him this mad. He held a firm grip on you and it’s like his skin was burning you. This was a different man, not the one you fell in love with. 

“We’re going to talk about this now,” he pulled a little harder on your arm now, leaving marks for days to come. ���Stop being a bitch and just talk to me. What? Did you cheat or something like the whore you are?” He practically spit in your face.

Scared. Scared was the only word you could formulate. You had no idea how to deescalate the situation, you were hurt and shaking. You somehow held it together enough to flatly speak. 

“Aaron, let go of me. Now.” It’s like a lightbulb went off in his brain, his eyes widened in shock and immediately dropped your hand. Your resolve was breaking and you don’t know how much longer you could stand being near him. All you ached for was his comfort but your brain wasn’t letting you to allow it. 

“I’m so sorry, I don’t know what got into me Y/N. I’m so sorry.” He reached for you but you flinched from his touch. “Y/N.” He was pleading now.

“I was offered a job in Billings, Montana. I’m gonna take it. I wanted to spend the weekend with you before discussing it. There isn’t anything to discuss anymore Aaron. I’m gonna go stay with my parents before heading back to campus.” You grabbed your bags from the entrance way before reaching for your jacket and keys. You could hear Aaron’s footsteps behind you, all you wanted was to leave this nightmare. This isn’t how the weekend was supposed to go. 

“Y/N, talk to me. Please. We can figure this out. Don’t just walk away from us.” How dare he accuse you of walking out on him. You wanted to spend the rest of your life with this man but he made the decision easy for you. 

“I said we're done talking, Aaron. I’ll be back tomorrow to grab the rest of my stuff and say goodbye to Jack. This isn’t easy but you made the choice for me. I love you Aaron, but I deserve better than what you did tonight. We both know that.” 

“That wasn’t me Y/N, you know it wasn’t. I love you and I’ll do anything to prove that to you. Please, just, don’t leave. It’s been a stressful three weeks, I just want another chance.” 

“I hope you learn from this.” You open the door and don’t look back until you’re down the steps, “goodnight Aaron.” You didn’t let him see your tears, he held his at bay until you were already down the street. 

That’s not how this weekend was supposed to go. 

[percedurza]

I HAVE ALREADY SPOKE ON LENGTH ABOUT THE PRINCE OF EGYPT BUT NOT THE WHOLE THING ONLY THE PLAGUES AND MOSTLY PASSOVER. I JUST WATCHED THE FULL MOVIE FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE I WAS A KID IM GONNA TALK ABOUT IT AGAIN BECAUSE IT WAS SO GOOD. OKAY.

okay let me first say that i was in tears within the first ten minutes of the movie. deliver us was so powerful and heartbreaking i cried BEFORE THE TEN MINUTE MARK. yeah.

when moses' mother sang her final lullaby to her son and pushed him downstream in that (blessed and very fortunate) basket my heart hurt. i cried with her. that was the last time she would ever see her baby.

when his sister sang her prayer for her baby brother, wishing for him to come back to deliver them as well, that just drove the nail in harder.

in a later scene before the banquet you can hear moses humming that last lullaby and since deliver us was just maybe ten minutes prior you remember it and realize he really did keep that final song.

and the banquet oh yeah ramesses gets appointed this big title? and he names moses as the grand architect

and theres this captured hebrew lady brought in for ramesses but shes fierce (i would be too, she was captured and brought to the people she hates the most) and so ramesses orders her to be brought to moses' chambers instead

moses goes to his chambers and suprise! she escaped! moses chases after and sees her sneaking out with her camel and distracts some guards so she wont get caught and once the guards are gone he goes after her again aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand

miriam (moses' sister) meeting him in the city streets and recognizing him, telling him he's her family and him shutting her down and calling her a slave.... it hurt. when she hums that lullaby and he RECOGNIZES and then rushes back home to have a dream about that day he was sent away (in beautiful animation designed to look like the hieroglyphs on his wall) its all so painful to watch him be forced out of nowhere to realize his life is a LIE because hes not a true prince of egypt, he's born of the slaves, and then his father the pharaoh justifies the order to slaughter innocent babies by saying "they were just slaves" and OUGH

moses kills a man. unintentional but he killed a man while trying to stop him from beating a slave. oops.

he cant live with this so he runs away into the desert. theres this scene where he collapses to the ground and sheds all of the jewelry and adornments from his life as royalty but as he takes off the ring ramesses gives him, he looks at it. and slowly puts it back on. because no matter what, he still loves his brother, and he always will.

moses falls into a well. yeah. chases off some ruffians and then basically faints and falls in. these girls the ruffians were harassing started pulling him out and SURPRISE SURPRISE the captured lady from the banquet is there and she drops him back in when she recognizes him and walks away all smug and her name is tzipporah! just an fyi (very pretty name love it)

moses basically gets adopted into the group of hebrews and moses says something about not ever having done anything of worth and so tzipporah's father jethro sings a little tune to him!

through heavens eyes is a masterpiece. i really dont know what else to say also i want jethro to be my dad hes so nice

aaanyway moses and tzipporah get married during the through heavens eyes montage! i just think thats nice

OKAY now juicy stuff the BURNING BUSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the scene in which moses encounter the burning bush and god.

god claims that he has seen his people (the hebrew slaves) suffering and cannot stand for it any longer, so he wishes to send moses as a sort of ambassador of god

and moses doesnt think hes worthy of being god's messenger, which god quickly shuts up by pointing out how he's kind of, like, GOD

and he teaches moses those big old words, "LET MY PEOPLE GO" wahoo!!!!!!

he rushes home to tell tzipporah, and shes like "but ur just one dude" and hes like "well i kinda have to also the hebrews are suffering in slavery so :////"

tzipporah and moses head on over to meet ramesses and theyre all excited to see each other and then moses is like "behold the power of god!!!!!!" and his staff becomes a snake. pretty gnarly if i do say so myself

and then the high priests are like "ok" and start basically performing and rapping the names of the egyptian gods at moses in response i really dont know how to describe it but its basically a whole lotta smoke and mirrors. not actual miracles

moses talks to ramesses and asks him to let his people go, and instead doubles the slave's workload. the slaves basically hate moses now because yeah he technically is the reason theyre getting pushed harder and even his own brother aaron seems to loathe him. miriam talks to moses and he sees ramesses' ship gliding down the nile nearby

he calls out to ramesses and he just sends his guards after him. and so moses brings the staff down and turns the river to blood.

THEN THE REST OF THE PLAGUES ENSUE!!!

theres this specific part of the plagues scene in which ramesses stands between two statues of egyptian gods and glances at them as if to ask why the fuck arent they doing anything about the LITERAL hellfire and general havoc being brought down on the city. just thought that was a really cool detail.

AND OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH passover. i really shouldnt get excited about talking about an event that killed a whole heck ton of kids but its like fnaf at this point who cares ANYWAY THE DEAD KIDS

i already talked about the passover scene but what i didnt include (i think) is how when god's spirit or whatever idk enters the palace, it passes over a statue of ramesses and you just think, oh fuck wait RAMESSES HAD A SON.

and sure enough, that son is dead. moses walks in as ramesses pulls a sheet over his sons dead body and ramesses finally, after all of the plagues, tells moses he can take the hebrews and leave.

as moses walks away you can see ramesses glare at moses because he may have said he was done but. hes not. of course.

moses and the hebrews are leaving with yet another beautiful musical sequence (when you believe) and you can see the hordes of former slaves walking to the sea.

AAND just like i said RAMESSES WASNT FINISHED! he brings a whole bunch of soldiers on horseback and chases the hebrews, and god literally rains fire on them again this time in the form of a flaming tornado that sweeps across the sand, making a big old wall of fire that the egyptian soldiers cant get through

which gives moses the time to do the famous parting of the sea. he brings that staff down in the water and DOES GODS WONDERS!!! yay!!!

watching them walk on the seabed was beautiful. with some lightning strikes you could see the silhouette of some kind of shark swimming in the water (looked it up there are sometimes whale sharks in the red sea this is accurate)

and the fire tornado recedes into the earth, the fire fades, the soldiers chase on at ramesses' orders. the water sweeps them away just as the hebrews make it to the other side and it later cuts back to ramesses, alone on the rocky shore, screaming out at moses. hes completely alone, soldiers presumably dead, and no family to speak of. his side of the sea is cloudy and gloomy, still stormy, but when it jumps back to the hebrews in celebration, the sun shines bright and happy. the hebrews are free.

the movie ends with moses walking down the mountain sinai, ten commandments in hand, while the last snippet of deliver us plays once again.

only one other movie has evoked this much of this kind of emotion in me.(the one movie is klaus LMAO klaus made me ugly cry) there was not a single second of watching this that i didnt have goosebumps.

the movie itself just looks pretty. all of the characters have unique and neat designs. (its also nice to see a movie with only poc in it like im just saying)

the musical scores and numbers are so expertly made. my favorite has to be deliver us but through heavens eyes is a very close second. through heavens eyes made me feel better about myself, in a way. the entire movie was like some healing experience.

all in all, this is an S tier movie, and i BEG BEG BEG anyone who hasn't seen it to watch it. just pirate it or something (i did lol watched it on an illegal streaming site)

if you're not religious and havent seen it, think of it as a chance to learn more about abrahamic faiths. if you are religious and havent seen it, well hey! here you go!!

Ribs And Coffee

Request from @lessangrypapercollector

“I have no weakness!”, Lee Burr!

Reblogs and likes would be much appreciated (:

“We need to target the man’s weaknesses”, Jefferson announced to the other two men that afternoon, “Hit him where it hurts most. Burr, so you happen to know any of Hamilton’s weaknesses?”. Madison and Jefferson turned to Burr, knowing that he used to have quite a strong friendship with Hamilton.

Burr groaned softly, “Thats the problem, he is his own weakness. His whole personality is weak”. Burr didn’t actually mean that, he just said it to impress the other two. What he didn’t know however, was that Hamilton was spying on the conversation from afar, and had heard every word.

Later that day, Burr walked over to Hamilton’s house. Running against him politically was difficult, as he didn’t want their friendship to end. He knocked twice, and Hamilton answered. The man wore a frown as soon as he saw who was at the door.

“Um, Alexander”, he said awkwardly, knowing by the look Hamilton was giving him that he was mad, but not knowing why. “Aaron Burr, sir”, Hamilton responded dryly, “Shallowest of men. What is it?” “I just want to catch up”, Burr stated, “How have you been, Alexander?”. “Strong”, Hamilton replied, “Strong as ever”. Burr smiled faintly, “Iv’e been feeling rather weak lately actually, working with Madison and Jefferson is rather draining”. 

“Really?”, Hamilton said, “Because it sounded today like you were getting on just fine!” 

“What do you mean?”, Burr asked, genuinely confused.

Hamilton eyed him with an ice-cutting glare: “I heard you call me weak”

Burr suddenly snapped. Of course, Hamilton was spying on his meetings! He shook his head, “I only said that to impress the other two. I’m really sorry, I meant nothing by it”

“And why should I believe you?”

“Because I am your friend Alexander, thats why”

Hamilton turned his head away, considering this for a moment. He sighed, “Fine, I believe you. Come in Burr”

The two drank coffee at Hamilton’s dining table, chatting about life and how it was going for the two of them.

“Also, it’s good that I said what I said”, Burr said, stirring a spoon in his mug, “Because otherwise, I would have had to tell them your actual weaknesses”. Hamilton crossed his arms, “Like what?” Burr grinned, “Your fear of Owls!” Hamilton chuckled and shook his head, “And what would they do with that information Burr? Hide an owl under my pillow? I don’t even think that Jefferson knows what an owl is!”. The two men laughed, they enjoyed chatting like this. “And if you told them that, I’d just tell them about your weaknesses!”, Hamilton exclaimed. Burr crossed his arms, mimicking Hamilton’s actions from earlier, “What weaknesses? I don’t have any!”.

“Oh really?”

“Yeah!”

“You sure?”

“Name one!”

Hamilton grinned cheekily, a light sparkling in his eyes, which made Burr nervous instantly. 

“Uh, Alexander, what are you thinking?”

Hamilton smiled brighter, “Oh, nothing. I’m just thinking about how I could demonstrate one of your weaknesses right now”.

Burr nervously stood up, “Which one?”

Hamilton stood up to be at eye level with him: “How ticklish you are”.

As soon as the words left the mans mouth, Burr ran. 

He darted out the door, and up Hamilton’s staircase. He had a huge smile of anticipation on his face as he ran, knowing that eventually, Ham would have to catch up to him. He made it to the end of a dead-end corridor, and cussed under his breath. Hamilton grinned evily, “Uh-oh Burr, looks like you’ve been cornered!”

Burr sighed, “Just, please don’t go for my ribs, okay?”

Hamilton grinned wider, had Burr done that on purpose? Surely the man was smart enough to know that asking somebody not to tickle a certain spot would only make the other person more encouraged to do so. Yes, as it turns out, the man was smart enough. He blushed deeply, knowing what was to come. It was super stressful hanging out with Madison and Jefferson, this would be a good stress reliever. Hamilton slowly creeped over to Burr menacingly. “So, you have no weakness, huh?”. 

Burr was getting impatient; “Just do it Alexander!”

As soon as the words left his lips, he cupped a hand over his mouth. Crap, he should not have said that. He felt like sinking into the floor. 

“Do what?”

“L-let me go?”

“Huh! Nice try!”

And with that, Hamilton went straight for the kill, Burr’s ribs. He squealed and began shrieking with laughter instantly.

“AHAHAHAHAHA NOHOHOHO AHAHAHAHALEHEHEX!”

“Yes Burr?”, Hamilton inquired, wiggling his fingers between the ribs.

“NOHOHOHO!”

“Wow!”, Hamilton remarked, “For someone who doesn’t have any weaknesses, you sure seem pretty weak right now!”

“NOHOHOHO SHIHIHIHIT!”

“Hey!”, Hamilton exclaimed, “Language!”

He lifted his fingers, much to Burr’s unpleasant pleasant surprise. “Swearing will not be tolerated in my house!”, Hamilton remarked, crossing his arms.

“It’s, it’s not such a bad word”, Burr reasoned. 

Hamilton smiled cheekily and gently pushed Burr to the ground and grinned down at him wickedly. “I repeat, swearing will not be tolerated in this house! Now, I ask you, how many ribs does a man have?”

Burr’s eyes widened, “No Alexander, don’t-”

Hamilton wiggled his finger over Burr’s top left rib, “One”. 

“NOHOHOHO AHAHAHA!”

“Two”

“DAHAHAHAHMNIT HAHAHAH!”

“Three....hey, stop moving around so much, you’ll make me lose count!”

“I CAHAHAHAN’T!”

“Oh well”, Hamilton sighed with a shrug, “Too bad, I guess we’ll have to start again from on-”

“What is going on here?”, Eliza asked from the other end of the hall, arms crossed and an eyebrow raised. Crap, Burr hoped that she hadn’t seen that. He softly caught his breath as Hamilton turned around to face his wife. “Oh, hi honey, I didn’t realise you’d be back so early. I didn’t hear you come in.”

Eliza let out a sarcastic chuckle, “Oh, I’m not surprised that you didn’t hear me over Burr shrieking with laughter! What have you done to the poor man?”

Burr blushed harder, “Erm, nothing, miss Hamilton”. Eliza just smiled at that, “Oh, don’t be embarrassed Burr, it’s not your fault. I’m sorry, my husband can get a little out of control at times”. “Hey!”, Hamilton whined in his defence, “He told me he had no weaknesses, and I thought it my duty to prove him wrong!” Eliza just nodded her head, “Well, I’ll leave you men to it”. 

“What?!”, Burr cried.

“Oh, you heard me”, Eliza said with a smirk, “If my husband is tickling you to tears to prove a point, I will let him do it”. Eliza swung around on her heels and left.

Burr looked up at Alexander, who had a dumbfounded expression on his face, before it turned mischievous.

“Well”, he said, “You heard my wife! Back to one!”

“No-AHAHAHAHA NOHOHOHO!”

“One”

“STOHOHOHOP!”

“Really?”, Hamilton asked, ”Why would I stop, I’m only up to one!”

“NOHOHOHO!”

“Plus, I don’t even think you want me to stop anyway”, he teased, spidering his fingers up down the other mans ribs and torso. 

Burr hated to admit it, but the man was right. 

The tickling continued for quite some time; Hamilton switching between pokes and light squeezes and spidering and clawing every few seconds, making it impossible to predict his next move. It tickled like hell, and all that Burr could do was let go and laugh. Yet still, it got to be a little too much after a while, and Hamilton seemed to notice, because he stopped.

Burr sat up, panting, and Hamilton lifted him to his feet. “Need a drink?”, he offered. Burr just shook his head, giggles still escaping his lips. “Nohoh, juhust coffee”. 

“Just coffee?”, Hamilton clarified in disbelief.

Burr nodded, “Just coffee”

Hamilton softly nudged his side, making him squeak, “Theres another weakness of yours Burr, coffee!”

Was this long enough? Please give feedback!

[bidaryl]

okay so u know those AUs where its like……rick wakes up from his coma and its the start of the apocalypse all over again after living through a fair chunk of it!! and its like him correcting mistakes and getting his second chance and shit OR the version where they ALL suddenly just wake up one day back in the modern world zombie free and it was all a dream but they all collectively had it so they find each other and meet up????? thats neat and all and i will read those fics till the day i die but u know what i have not seen and i rly wanna like. cry over?

daryl.

daryl waking up at the start of the end of the world. okay i haven’t put much thought into pre-rick era so like maybe just before rick comes in? maybe when merle and the crew leave for the city???? and its like a post-negan daryl thats waking up here. mayhaps the night glenn d*es and daryl gets taken? OR EVEN better maybe when jesus rescues daryl and its when daryl finally falls asleep for the first time in months on an actual pillow surrounded by certain members of his found family and then he just????? wakes up!!

he wakes up and he’s at the fcking quarry. his bitchass loudmouth brothers nowhere in sight cos as daryl figures out later, merle left the previous day. its the big reset button that everyone kinda wishes they had because they’ve all lost so much over the past 2-3 years but like… never though it could happen.

or! and i haven’t actually seen past carl dying so i’m not positive about things but hmmm what about a version when when rick ~dies. the bridge explodes. rick, for all intents and purposes of the show, /is DeAd/. and daryls a fucking mess becos that was on him and maggie and idk who else was involved in that plot or even if thats actually what happened. but from what ive gathered rick and daryl were kinda on the outs with the negan shit and that bridge scene could’ve been avoided. if things had just gone a bit differently. if they could go back in time just for a second! just one more chance! one more shot at things going differently and daryl could totally fix everything. then the next day daryls waking up at the quarry.

ugh cos THINK about it!! quarry era daryl and saviour/negan+ era daryl are so different? like the heart of him is the same but they all barely know each other at the start and daryls so angry and skittish and runs on fight or flight mode but alexandria/saviour/negan era daryl has like……bleed for these people? provided food and water for these people? led these people to safety? put his life on the line on several occasions for these people? made some of these people smile and laugh by just existing? stepped in as leader when rick has his moments? or like co leader with michonne & co.?

like would he tell anyone?? would he speak up more and try lead them to the farm cos that was a good move they did before? does he keep up pretences and chuck a tantrum over the crew not returning with merle or does he like. go ‘okay.’ and everyones like what the actual fuck. does he go into the prison and head for the cafeteria straight away to get the remaining prisoners out and kill that one bitch that fucks shit up for them??

he absofuckinglutely saves sophia. jumps that fucking guardrail before rick can even get out from under the car properly. carol literally not letting sophia out of her sight for days after daryl and rick and sophia all return like 2 hrs later, wet and covered in dirt and some blood but safe.

then!! if he did tell someone, who would it be?????? rick?? carol?? like how would that even go down. would he tell them maybe later on? prison era maybe. when michonne finally comes and they’re all debating whether to let her in or let her fuck off and stuff and daryls like wow i cant take this anymore rick that is ur future WIFE man. patch up her fucking leg.

or maybe carol. when they’re on watch together and carol casually mentions that daryl was over and into the woods, right on sophias heels, before people even realised which direction she went. how rick mentioned once to her that daryl seemed to know exactly where to find her. even picked up her doll without even seeming to stop. just seemed to know exactly what was happening. daryl just shrugging.

also side note. we, and daryl, do NOT know a butterfly effect. absolutely no ‘oh he saved xoxo and that means them and 2 others are gonna die!’ plots. nope. no way. this is the do-over of all do-overs. a one time fix it and fix it for the better.

THAT ALL BEING SAID this post is me being like hey what if daryl got a second chance whatever but no! what this post is truly about at its core is: IMAGINE a daryl thats lived….lets go with the ricks just died version. daryls lived that long and lost that many members of his family.

and then he hasn’t.

imagine daryl seeing beth for the first time again. the last time he saw her, he was carrying out her dead body to her sobbing sister. then they’re all at the farm again and she’s theres. alive and well and still young and bright and smiling. ‘you’re gonna miss me so bad when i’m gone’ he fucking did. he missed her so fucking much. he like. physically stops himself from like just going up and grabbing her and hugging the shit out of her.

daryl seeing sophia grow up? seeing carol become that mum. the mum that she always wanted to be and become still the strongest fucking women daryl had ever met but also like……..her and sophia. every time he sees them together he just wants to cry. carol deserves this so fucking bad. after everything, if he could save nothing else. he can make peace with himself knowing he gave carol this. this time with her daughter that she got robbed of.

daryl seeing glenn, alive, so so so young it seems compared to the the last glenn he saw. seeing him at camp at the quarry. seeing him talk to maggie for the first time. going from seeing him alive and so so so fucking real then his sleep being filled with nightmares of That night. how long after glenns death did daryl blame himself. would’ve put his head under the bat without hesitation if it meant that glenn could live and meet his son. him and maggie can run hilltop together. and now he’s real and he’s tangible and he’s funny and daryl spent so much of his time remembering glenn and feeling guilty that he never even really let himself miss him? but fuck he’s missed glenn so fucking much. missed having his back out on runs and glenn having his.

meeting aaron and eric again. going to that spag bowl dinner, eating the fuck out of it, just enjoying watching these two gays in love have dinner with each other at the end of the world. thinks about how they specifically invited him over for dinner. erics not gonna die this time round. they’re both gonna met gracie. bring her back number plates. help her put them on the wall, put them amongst all her drawings.

meeting merle again. knowing that merle died for him. them. the whole family. michone. idk if i want merle to live or die idk lets move on.

hershel lives!!!!!!!!! no beheading here!!!!!!!! fuck that!!!!!! fuck the governor!!!!! maggie and beth and glenn do not ever have to witness their father (in law) being killed in cold blood! no! hershel fits in v well with the alexandia community and thrives there. daryl makes damn sure of that.

daryl on that first day they meet jesus? him and rick getting in that car, rick singing that damn song, and daryl realising oh Shit! its that day already?? and then jesus, the fucker, does exactly what he does last time. and daryls just like.......so fucking happy that jesus is HERE and ALIVE and RIGHT THERE that he doesnt even get to outsmart him. show off. jesus pulls the firecracker stunt again and swipes ricks keys and when rick and him are stranded there and jesus has taken off with the truck, daryls just standing there like how the fuck did i let that happen. chases him around the field AGAIN! ‘duck!’ ‘thats my gun!’ AGAIN!!!!!! <3<3<3

the long road of the apocolypse is just as hard the second time as the first but everytime daryl looks around at his family and sees everyone they lost so tragically last time, alive, hes like..................a MESS. theyre alive! and safe! and hes so happy that his family is all together again.

Discord thread featuring: Aaron and & @alison-haynes

When: August 26th, 2020

Mentions: @romanbeckett @luca-regio

Description: Alison tells Aaron she is uncomfortable with Des being around Roman while they are broken up. Lots of fighting in circles. Then later, after Alison tells Roman that she want Roman to back off, Aaron tests Alison and goes off.

TW: arguing

Aaron.

hey ali

you can bring Des here on Friday? Visiting hours start at 4

Alison.

okay! Luca and I are taking her out to celebrate for most of the day, but we will have an early dinner and then I will bring her by.

Aaron.

okay...Ro wants to come to see me too.

Alison.

have you asked him to come see you?

Aaron.

yes

why don’t you all come Friday

and Ali. He really wants to see Des

he came home from London early to see her.

Alison.

Friday? I mean, Friday is Des birthday. I feel like Friday should be about you and Des, not you and Roman.

Aaron.

can you let her stay over at his sometime soon

someone needs to being Des up here...

Alison.

Hes taking her on Wednesday after school

I’m going to bring Des there.

Aaron.

and Ro wants to spend her birthday with her as well

okay. Is she stay over? He’d like that

Alison.

he’ll be at her party on Sunday

Aaron.

he will.

Alison.

and he’ll be there earlier than other people, so he can celebrate her birthday with her then.

Aaron.

so you want him to drive up by himself on Friday? Because he’s coming.

why can’t I see all three of my favorite people on my daughter’s birthday

Alison.

She is going for a few hours on Wednesday and I’ll pick her up afterwards. She’s not staying over.

listen to yourself Aaron. It’s your daughters birthday, not yours.

make it about her, not about your relationship.

Aaron.

what the fuck?

this is about my daughter’s birthday

I want to see her, you and Roman on her birthday bc that’s my family

this has nothing to do with my relationship

I don’t get why this is an issue

I’m the one in rehab

Alison.

I just don’t understand why Roman can’t come see you another day.

Aaron.

he can...but he wants to see Des on her birthday too. With me.

why does luca get to spend time with her on her birthday but Roman doesn’t?

Alison.

Because it’s different, Aaron.

Aaron.

it’s not?

Alison.

Luca & I are in a relationship. You and Roman broke up.

Aaron.

were getting back together when I get home

we already talked about it

we’re pretty much dating now

he’s my boyfriend.

Alison.

since when?

Aaron.

before I left. We talked the day you came over.

Alison.

why didn’t you tell me?

Aaron.

I dont know. I’m sorry.

I’m upset the whole thing happened in the first place I guess

Alison.

But it did happen. And this isn’t the first time the two of you have broken up, Aaron. That is what concerns me.

Aaron.

and you’re not having any problems with Luca?

cmon. Breaks can be healthy. This one is.

Alison.

Luca and I haven’t broken up. Problems or not. But I don’t know why my relationship is being brought up.

I don’t know about it, Aaron. You didn’t see yourself that day I came over. Didn’t look like a good break.

and how much of a break is it if you guys have been back together since before you left?

and if he visits? Not much of a break.

Aaron.

he’s in London. Taking time to see his parents. I’m getting myself together. It’s time apart. It can be a good thing. Just because you’re still in a relationship doesn’t diminish any problems. Lots of unhappy couples stay together and it can be more toxic than if they were to break up. You’re relationship is being brought up because I’m not okay with you thinking it’s okay for Luca to see Des on her birthday but not Roman. Listen to yourself.

Alison.

whatever you think you’re doing, fine. but this is why I didn’t want Destiny to be around Roman in the first place. I wanted you two to figure your relationship out before he got close with Destiny. She doesn’t need the on again off again in her life. You can’t say anything about my relationship. Because you don’t know anything about my relationship, Aaron. If you want to know, the only problem within my relationship is YOU. So I’d really appreciate it if you backed the fuck off my relationship.

Aaron.

nothings going to be on and off again for her unless you tell her we broke up.

and don’t blame me for the problems within your relationship.

it’s deeper than that if you think your problems are my fault

Alison.

no I didn’t tell her, but I’m also not going to go around acting like nothing happened. You wanted me to tell our SIX year old that my boyfriend has a past in prison and yet you can’t even be honest with her about your own damn relationship.

Aaron.

yeah...so she doesn’t find out about it from someone else. She deserves to hear that from you.

Alison.

really? Because we’re perfectly fine, happy, excited to be parents, even have talked about marriage. But when you come up, that is when things go to shit, Aaron. So yes, you are the problem within my relationship.

it’s about you being honest with her Aaron.

Aaron.

why do I need to be honest with her but you can lie to her?

you sound like a hypocrite

Alison.

you sound like a hypocrite

you were the one telling me to be honest with her when you can’t be honest with her.

Aaron.

we been knew that. But you think you’re so perfect...you can never be wrong.

Alison.

I didn’t say that Aaron. Don’t put words in my mouth.

Aaron.

you don’t need to say that. You show that in your actions

Alison.

Maybe it isn’t you and Roman who need a break. Maybe it’s you and I who need a break.

Aaron.

Jesus Christ

you cant keep threatening breaks every time we fight

Alison.

I don’t

twice isn’t everytime Aaron

Aaron.

recently it has been

Alison.

and you were just the one who said breaks could be good

Aaron.

if they’re needed

we don’t need it after one fight

Alison. I am in rehab. I need my best friend, my daughter and my boyfriend

yet you are here blaming me for your relationship problems when all I need of your support. Can’t you just suck it up and drive up with Roman and Des and give her to Roman for at least a night for me?  Like damn.

Alison.

you are the one who brought Luca up, I’m not going to not defend my relationship.

I have been nothing but supportive, Aaron. I am trying my best here.

I’m not keeping her from Roman.

I just don’t think she needs to spend a night there.

Aaron.

I don’t feel like you’re trying Alison.

I think she’d want to spend a night with Roman, dont you?

Alison.

well I’m sorry my best isn’t good enough for you.

Aaron.

really ?

Alison.

She is not spending a night there. She needs to get back on a routine for school.

Aaron.

why do you get the final say?

Alison.

because I am her mother, and right now she is in my care while you’re away/

Aaron.

are you serious?

okay so when you’re on tour...you get no say in any decisions for Des.

got it

Alison.

that’s different Aaron

Aaron.

THATS WHAT YOU SAID

why is everything different for you

Alison.

I’m sorry that you think Roman is her FATHER. But he is not. YOU are. I’m sorry that leaving her overnight in his care makes me uncomfortable.

Aaron.

WHY.

Alison.

I could have just said no to him seeing her at all, but I didn’t. And I wouldn’t do that.

Aaron.

that’s no just your call Alison

you’re being stubborn and petty

Alison.

so I should just go along with whatever you want?

Aaron.

how about we have a conversation instead of you just telling me how it is. I’m still uncomfortable with Luca yet didn’t say a thing about him spending the day with her on Friday

Alison.

it’s not that I am uncomfortable with him. I am uncomfortable with her staying the night until you two get your relationship worked out. I won’t want her spending the night for a while.

happy now?

Aaron.

no

not at all

Alison.

Luca lives with us. He would have seen her anyways.

Aaron.

this is fucked up alison. You know you’re just being stubborn

Alison.

I gave in last time Aaron. I wasn’t ready for destiny to be around him, but I let you do what you want because it was what made you happy

I’m always doing what makes YOU happy.

Aaron.

that’s so far from the truth Alison

Alison.

no it isn’t Aaron

Aaron.

I just can’t believe you’re “uncomfortable” with Roman when you call him a friend

Alison.

like I said I’m not uncomfortable with him. I’m uncomfortable letting her spend the night until the two of you figure your stuff out.

Aaron.

it’s figured out

I told you

we’re back together

I’m literally just....in REHAB

Alison.

just because your back together or not doesn’t mean you have it figured it out. Remember? Just because you’re in a relationship doesn’t diminish problems.

Aaron.

ooookkaaaayyy so you admit you don’t have your shit figured out with Luca? With your logic, she shouldn’t be around luca either

you’re talking out of your ass

stop being stubborn and admit you were wrong for ONCE

Alison.

I have my shit figured out with Luca, thank you very fucking much.

I’m not going to keep going in circles with you.

Aaron.

alright. So where do we stand.

what if you bring Des up at 4 and Roman brings her back to you the same day.

she won’t be there for long anyway Bc she’ll have to go to bed around 8 and it’s an hour and a half drive

Alison.

So now I don’t get to see you? You know what, whatever Aaron. We will do whatever you want, because that’s how we always do it.

night

Aaron.

what? No? That’s not what I said. Just avoid you two driving up together and to give Ro some time with Des

Alison.

I don’t see why she wouldn’t just come home with me. It’s silly for him to drive her to my house when I can just do it.

August 26th -> after Alison texts Roman (around 10:45pm)

Aaron.

Alison what the fuck

I’m so mad at you right now you have no idea

I’ve never been more angry and disappointed in my life

Alison.

Aaron.

you're kidding

why are you taking this out on Ro.

Alison

Alison.

I’m not taking it out on anyone Aaron.

Aaron.

i will never forgive you for this

Alison.

I’m not going to apologize for not being ready for our child to have a third parent. I’m sorry that I hurt Roman’s feelings, but I’m not gonna apologize for the way I feel.

Aaron.

Warning-kidnapping, abduction.

Coco helped me in the door with EZ holding the door, first day of many of having extra security but i don't mind I know the guys are just looking out for us. i felt my way to the kitchen table chair,"baby I'll be fine, If it helps I'll stay here. Go take a shower or something. I'm a big girl, If I need I'll ask Gilly or EZ. There in the living room." Even though he wasn't saying I could tell he was still there, "Johnny go I'll be fine." He hates being called by his real name but he only lets me call him that.

"Fine." He pouted like a five year old and left.I swear these boys are like kids at times, me and shi are like the mother hens but we love them wouldn't have it any other way.

Then there was a knock it sounded like it was my front door,which i find weird because the guys know I have a open door and come in.

I got up feeling my way to the living room,"someone here guys?''

"No just me and Gilly why?" EZ asked

"I heard a knock that sounded like it from the front door." I replied feeling my way to them to sit on the sofa. But I tripped on something

"Woah,you ok?" Gilly said catching me before I fell.

"Ya. What was that?" I replied sitting on the couch.

"Shoes i thought I moved out of the way before you came home, me and Gilly were moving stuff out of the way so something like you tripping didn't happen." EZ said sounding like he was to my left.I swear these boys are like kids at times, me and shi are like the mother hens but we love them wouldn't have it any other way.

Then there was a knock it sounded like it was my front door,which i find weird because the guys know I have a open door and come in."It's ok. I'm glad I'm home. Missed my boys." I laughed they were family

"We missed you to. Coco was worried sick about you when you were in surgery, both for you and Riz."

"I know Riz will pull through hes a tough guy. Him and shi are perfect for each other both have big hearts and would do anything for you."

"You girls keep them in line for sure." Ez teased

"He made me come out of my shell that's for sure. Saved me from a abusive realstionship, well i broke up with him but he kept coming after me. Maybe that's one of the guys that did the shooting." Then I remember seeing something before the glass broke i remember seeing someone in the house before the gunfire started. And i heard a glass brake from the kitchen

"Hey babe look at me,it's ok. No one's here." I heard Johnny's (coco) voice

"He did it i saw him. I know he did." I replied feeling for his hand and hugging him burrying my face in his shirt I could feel myself shake,"it can't be him he's in jail. I'm scared baby."

Cocos P.O.V.

"Fuck, I haven't thought about him in years not since I kicked his ass". Coco ran his hand down his face with a sigh.

"Who are we talking about"? Ez asked.

"It was before your time boy". Gilly shook his head, he remember that wanna be biker. He couldn't make it with Dee and he couldn't make it as a Mayan.

"Dee's ex, Aaron, he started as a prospect like you but was kicked out after what he did to Dee".

"He beat her"?

"Worse, he fucked her up so bad mentally".

"Why does she think he would come after you after all these years"? Ez asked taking a sip of his coffee.

"It all started when Shiloh brought Dee to a party one night. Aaron didn't allow her to come to the ones before, we didn't even knew she exsited until we saw her with Shiloh and he was all over her. Well that didn't last long when she saw me. We started talking and dancing. Aaron went pshyco and started beating her, she was covered in bruises when I came in and helped. She broke up with him and he went mad. He came to my house one night and threatened us saying 'If I can't have her no one can' but that was years again and since then he's been in jail".

"You've been keeping tabs on him"? Gilly smiled.

"Hell yeah, I wasn't letting her get hurt again but if this really is him then those bullets were met for me and Shiloh".

"Shiloh"? Ez was confused.

"Shiloh threatened to cut off his balls if he came near Dee again and she also planted meth on him with Riz help and thats why he went to prison. It was his third strike".

"But if he's out we need to warn Shiloh".

"Yeah, I'll call Angel and Creeper. Make sure they're packing". Gilly walked out the door getting on the phone.

"Ez, Can I ask you something"?

"Yeah brother anything"?

"Will you watch over Dee while I go visit a friend. They'll know if he's out".

"Yeah, no problem. I'll protect her with my life".

"Thanks man". Coco hugged Ez and went to tell Dee he was leaving and posting Ez and Gilly at the house. That he wasn't going to let anything else bad happen to her.

Coco arrived at his friends house, did a secret knock and entered being patted down for a weapon.

"Do you remember Aaron, Dees ex"?

"Yeah, I heard he got out, made a lot of friends while he was in. Some of them not to Mayan friendly".

"You knew and you didn't tell me"? Coco yelled, standing up hovering over his friend.

"I figured he would move on, not come back and dig up old wounds".

"Well he dug up the whole fucking grave yard. He shot at us at a party, put one of my brothers in the hospital, he may not make it and he blinded Dee forever. You should have told me".

"Then I guess I should have told you that he bought two AK-47s two months ago".

"That would have been very fucking helpful and it would have stopped all of this from happening. This, I'm blaming you. I will settle this score later but now I have to go protect my girl". He stormed out of the house, jumping on his bike and jeting off.

Shiloh's P.O.V.

Meanwhile, Shiloh was having a wonderful little time with the nurse once again. She wanted Riz to wake up so bad that she called in a favor and got him the MIR that morning, he was currently in.

"Miss, you need to get your stuff out of the room".

"That's my husbands room and he'll be coming back after he gets done with this test so if you dont mind, fuck off".

The nurse huffed, rolling her eyes and storming off. "I fucking hate this place". You growled.

"Shiloh". You heard Angels voice running down the hall.

"What, is it Dee"? You panicked.

"Sort of, its her ex".

"Aaron what does that little shit have to do with anything"?

"Dee saw him at the house that night of the party right before the gun shots".

"After all these years he's coming after us, what a asshole".

"Coco told us to watch you, and that he's certain that he's coming after Dee".

"Okay, Riz is almost done but I want you to tell Creeper to wait here for him". You said starting to walk off.

"Where are you going"? Angel walked behind you.

"To the room, I need my phone to call Dee, she needs me".

"I'll come with you".

"It's a hospital what's the worst that can happen"? Angel shook his head knowing he should have followed you but didn't follow you, he went to get Creeper.

You walked into the room and grabbed your phone about to speed dial Dee but you felt a presence and thats when you got knocked out, you could feel your body being dragged down the hallway as it was fuzzy.

During Rizs test he started moving, and sat straight up. "Where's Shiloh"? He yelled. Creeper heard him from the hallway and rushed in calming his brother.

"Hey, calm down. Angel is with her". But he wasn't, Angel came in and shocked them.

"What's going on? I can hear you from the waiting room".

"What are you doing in the waiting room, you're supposed to be watching Shiloh. Where is she"? Creeper questioned.

"She went to get her phone. Dees ex is out and she wanted to make sure she was okay".

"And you let her go by herself"?

"Its a hospital, what could possibly go wrong"? Angel ate his words when Riz came back to the room and Shiloh wasnt there, no one had seen her since Riz went in.

"I'll check outside and in the cafeteria". Creeper jogged off.

"I'm sorry". Angels head fell in his hands.

"You had one job to watch her and you let her go off on her own knowing there's someone out trying to kill her".

"I'm going to find her, I promise".

"You better and when you do make sure you put a bullet in the guys head". Riz told Angel, because he already knew what happened to Shiloh.

While Creeper and Angel looked for Shiloh, her muffled screams couldn't be heard in the closet.

"No use of struggling, no ones going to find you until they start smelling you decomposing body coming from here". The guy laughed, making your skin crawl.

"MTHERCKNG ASHLE ". You tried to speak but you weren't understood.

"Oh is the Mayan whore trying to say something"? He ripped the tape off your mouth.

"Fuck you, motherfucker". You spat.

"Ah a feisty whore". "Let me tell you something, the sons will regret getting involved with the Mayans".

"If you have something against the Sons then go after them not us".

"But its you that I don't like". He pushed the tape over your mouth again. All you could think was you're going to die and you wont see Riz wake up and how Dee is worried sick about Aaron and you're not there to help her. Tears started falling.

TSOTBL - Blurred Perception

I was able to post this on time yeehaw!

It was a beautiful, fresh morning at the lodge. Although the snow was only getting thicker, and the cold was ever so vicious, there was something nice about the warmth inside the lodge. A kind of winter coziness.

Garroth walked out of his room, still in his pajamas. He rubbed his eyes, stretched his arms out a bit and yawned, he hadn’t been feeling well the past few days and tried to stay in his room for the most part, but he figured it was time for some fresh air. He went down the stairs and sat by the fireplace. He took a few deep breaths as he relaxed in the familiar warmth of the fire. He sat back and reminisced about all of his childhood winters, how often he and his brothers would play in the snow when there was not much else to do.

“It’s only 5am huh….” Garroth muttered to himself.

Good. The earlier he got up the more likely it was that he wouldn’t have to see...Zane.

Garroth took a deep breath, and stood up. He walked to the windows and looked outside. Although it was still kinda dark outside and the windows were frosted, there was enough light for Garroth to make out the trees and plants outside.

“The snow is so pretty.” He thought, gazing out the window.

Growing up Garroth had always loved the winter. The warmth of a fire, the cold winds, the snow, the variety of smells you couldn’t get from any other time of the year. It was without a doubt his favorite season. How unfortunate that he should be feeling so unhappy before the end of his favorite time of year.

“Spring is gonna be soon huh....in about two weeks.” Garroth spoke to himself, looking glumly out the window, proceeding to look away from the window. “And dad will be here and...Zane can finally leave...and I...and he can be much happier...” Garroth sighed, as single tear trailed down his cheek.

Just then, Garroth heard a noise come from the stairs that caught his attention. He instantly looked back to see what it was. It was Aphmau, still in her pajamas.

“Aphmau? What are you doing up so early?” Garroth asked, walking to Aphmau. “Oh, I just got up kinda early and couldn’t fall back asleep. What about you?” Aphmau explained, playing with her hair. “I...wasn’t really able to sleep much last night. I got tired of lying in bed so I got up once there was enough light out….” Garroth said, looking back to the window. “Ah I get you....” Aphmau mumbled, as she walked to the fireplace and sat by it. “Gosh it’s so cold, I don’t know how you guys put up with it!” She whisper-shouted. “Heh, I guess it’s something you have grow up with to get use to…” Garroth muttered, sitting down next to Aphmau.

They both sat quietly with each other by the fireplace, and soaked in the warmth of the fire. It was a nice silence, not one of isolation and loneliness, but a quiet time as a change of pace with everything that has happened recently. Aphmau huddled closer to her childhood friend, and rested her head on his shoulder. He didn’t mind, it was something she always did to all of her friends, especially because the only person she’s ever met in her life that was shorter than her, was her mom. Garroth let out a deep sigh, as he made a glum expression.

“Is something wrong Garroth?” Aphmau asked, changing her attention from the fire to him. “I’m fine….” Garroth sighed, still keeping his eyes on the fire. “Are you sure? You've seemed a bit off since yesterday…” She added, nudging his arm a bit. “I'm fine. Aphmau.” “But ever since yesterday you've been-” “So how has the situation with Aaron been.” Garroth cut off Aphmau, quickly changing the subject. “Oh, erm, things have been...I..I don’t know. Just….the break up has been harder to deal with then I thought…” Aphmau mumbled, moving her head off Garroth. “I thought you guys were just taking time apart...?” Garroth asked in confusion. “Ughh I don’t even know anymore...this whole thing’s been so damn confusing and just….” Aphmau trailed off, getting up from the floor. “I don’t know anymore…Aaron is, honestly just so great and wonderful, and I’m just...me, I guess….”

Garroth went silent for a moment.

“Well, I think you're nice...” Garroth assured his friend, placing his hand on her shoulder. “I...understand what you’re going through right now and...I know these things are hard to talk about and, well, I just want you to know that I’ll always be here for you okay?” “Thanks Garroth…” Aphmau said happily, hugging Garroth. “I’ve got your back too y’know! If you ever need to vent out…” “Aw, well I’m never sad so you’ll never have to worry about that!” Garroth insisted, y’know, like a liar. “I’ve seen you cry!” Aphmau retorted in a teasing manner. “When we watch disney movies!” “Same difference!” She giggled.

The two shared a hug.

“Man we need to hang out more, I can't remember the last time it was just you, me, and Laurance just sitting around and playing video games. Y'know like back in the good ol’ days.” Aphmau commented. “Yeah that's right huh, we should all try to hang together again...you, uh, wanna walk outside for a bit?” Garroth asked Aphmau, gesturing to the door. “Are you kidding? It’s freezing! Plus, what if wolves eat us?!” Aphmau replied in horror. “Just throw on a coat! Besides the suns come out a bit more and I doubt any wolves are gonna eat us.” Garroth chuckled, insisting that Aphmau come with him outside. “Okay, Okay. Just give me a second.” Aphmau gave in, walking back to her room to grab her coat.

Once Aphmau was ready, she and Garroth walked out of the lodge. They looked around them and admired the scenery.

“Everything out here is so pretty...don’t you agree Aphmau?” Garroth commented, taking in a deep breath, of the fresh morning air. “Y-yeah!” Aphmau stuttered, as she was so could her teeth were chattering. “Are you chilly?” “Chilly. You call it chilly.” Aphmau responded with a straight face. “Okay so maybe not chilly but… you’re definitely freezing.” “Really? I thought it was pretty warm out…” “YOU’VE MADE YOUR POINT! Now here let me help warm you up a bit.” Garroth laughed, trapping her in a hug. “hEY!” “THERE. NOW YOU CAN’T BE COLD SO YOU CAN'T COMPLAIN!!” Garroth shouted, shaking Aphmau around. “LET ME GO YOU DUMMY!” She yelled, throwing her body hard enough to the side to make them both fall. “Oof...!” Garroth uttered, falling to the snow and dropping Aphmau, who also fell in the process. “Agh! Garroth, are you okay?!” Aphmau asked in concern. “I’m fine…” Garroth muttered, getting up from the ground. “But you won’t be!” He shouted, throwing a snowball at Aphmau. “OOOOW! FINE, YOU WANNA WAR? THEN YOU’RE GETTING A WAR!” Aphmau yelled, proceeding to make a snowball and throwing it at Garroth. “YOU’RE ON!”

They continued to have a snowball fight-well, more of a snowball war, but they laughed and laughed, pelting each other with snowballs.

“IS THAT ALL YOU GOT?” Aphmau coughed, preparing another snowball. “C’MON APH, YOU’RE COUGHING, THE COLD AIR IS GONNA GET YOU SICK JUST SURRENDER!” Garroth insisted, throwing yet another snowball at Aphmau. “I’LL NEVER SURRENDER!” Aphmau yelled, coughing in between her words. “THEN YOU LEAVE ME NO CHOICE.” Garroth shouted, walking towards Aphmau as she pelted him with snowballs. “AHHH NO!” Aphmau coughed in distress, as Garroth came closer. “WE CAN DO THIS THE EASY WAY, OR THE HARD WAY…” Garroth told Aphmau, cornering her.

Aphmau went silent, giving thought to Garroth’s words and looking around herself. “.... I'll do it the hard way.” Aphmau mumbled, as she began to run away.

“NOT SO FAST!” Garroth yelled, tackling Aphmau to the ground. “-NO!” Aphmau screamed, trying to squirm away.

“I’M SORRY APH I’M NOT LETTING ONE OF MY FRIENDS DIE OF LIKE, PHUNEUMONINIA OR SOMETHING!” Garroth explained, carrying Aphmau over his shoulder and walking inside. “IT'S PRONOUNCED PNEUMONIA.” “WHATEVER.”

As the two of them walked back inside they were greeted by a familiar face.

“Oh hey you guys! I was wondering what sounded like bloody murder out there.” Aaron greeted the two. “Hey Aaron, what are you doing up so early?” Aphmau questioned him. “What are you doing up so early? You always sleep in.” Aaron replied. “Early to bed, early to wake, makes a lady smart, pretty, and great!” Aphmau retorted. “Early to rise, early to bed, makes a man healthy but socially dead.” Aaron added. “Oh shuddup!” Aphmau chuckled. “Ha, well anyways you two start getting dressed, we have a busy day ahead of us.” Aaron insisted. “Okay!” Garroth and Aphmau said in unison.

The two walked back upstairs.

“Hey... Garroth?” Aphmau asked. “Yeah?” “I’m really glad we’re friends…” “Thats, uh, that's...nice.” Garroth uttered, walking into his room. He grabbed the book he had been so infatuated with for the past few days and stared at it. “I don't know...”
